# Dave Marshall (Barbadian cricketer)

Dave Kerwin Marshall (born 24 May 1972) is a Barbadian former cricketer. A leg spinner bowler, he played in 27 first-class and six List A matches for the Barbados cricket team from 1993 to 2001.
Marshall made his first-class debut for Barbados against Jamaica in 1993, playing two further matches in that season's Red Stripe Cup. After four years out of the team, he returned for a fixture with the touring Indian team where he took figures of 6/62 in their first innings. Despite that performance he was overlooked by the West Indies Cricket Board when they ran a leg-spinners coaching clinic later that year. Marshall made occasional appearances over the next few seasons as Barbados generally preferred left-arm spinner Winston Reid. In 1999–2000, Marshall enjoyed his best season taking 28 wickets at an average of 16.17, he was the team's leading wicket-taker and third highest in that year's Busta Cup. That season also saw Marshall record his career best figures of 7/49 against the Windward Islands, taking four further wickets in the second innings to be named man of the match. He was less consistent the following season and made his final first-class appearance against the Leeward Islands.
Marshall played club cricket in England for Vauxhall Mallards from 1999 to 2001. An attempt to join them in 1998 had to be aborted after he was denied a work permit.
After his playing career, Marshall has coached the Barbados club side Spartans.

# Dave Marsh (musician)

Dave Marsh is a Canadian musician, best known for being drummer of Halifax power pop group The Super Friendz in the 1990s, of Joel Plaskett Emergency in the 2000s, and as a solo artist.

## Solo career

Marsh's debut album, The True Love Rules, was released on July 29, 2008. It was produced by Dave Marsh and Joel Plaskett, and was nominated for "Male Solo Recording of the Year" and "Rock Recording of the Year" at the 2010 East Coast Music Awards. Marsh and his band, The True Love Rules, toured in support of the album in 2008 and 2009, opening for fellow Halifax acts Sloan and Joel Plaskett Emergency.
Throughout 2011-12 Marsh worked on songs for his next project and played shows with his band the True Love Rules, often featuring Paul Boudreau on bass guitar and Scotty MacCullough on drums, in between a busy touring and recording schedule with the Joel Plaskett Emergency. His second album, The Cause Of Many Troubles, was released in 2013 on his own record label, Stove Records. Recorded primarily at the Echo Chamber in Halifax and self-produced, it featured many local guest artists including John Boudreau, Rob Crowell, Andrew Scott and Tim Brennan and received good reviews across the country.
Marsh next produced his friend, Thomas McGachy Smith, who frequently opened local shows for the True Love Rules, with an album called Mugak Heart. This 2014 release was the second release on Stove Records, however it was marred by the passing of Smith in November 2013. This album, and the unforgettable character who was known as Mugak, has become a real cult classic.
Also during this period Marsh began collaborating with ex King Konqueror vocalist, Steve Rolston, on a project which eventually morphed into a rockin' band with punk roots, called Rolly & The Navy Brats. An album, produced by Dave Marsh, has been recorded and is expected to be released.
In 2016, Marsh released a vinyl 45 on Stove Records with A side The Green Fields of Shannon Park, featuring Mo Kenney. The B side, also with Mo Kenney was Buy A Guitar ( Before You Kill Someone ).

# Narcotics Control Board (Ghana)

The Narcotics Control Board (NACOB) is a Ghanaian agency under the Ministry of Interior. It is the agency concerned with the formulation and enforcement of narcotics laws in the country. The board's work is aimed at preventing the use, import, and export of narcotics.

## Functions

The agency has three main functions, supervised by the Interior Ministry. The functions consist of the following:
* Enforcement and control of narcotic control laws in the country
* Education and prevention of the use of narcotics
* Treatment, rehabilitation and social re-integration of narcotic addicts.
The board regularly has inspectorates at various entry points of the country, particularly airports and seaports. Regular sweeps are conducted on marine vessels and on passengers at airports as part of security checks.During these inspections, if any suspected narcotic products are found, they are confiscated by the board and tested to determine their substance. The offenders are then brought before the courts to face legal proceedings. The confiscated narcotic products are subsequently destroyed to prevent their redistribution. One such burning was done in June 2010 when the board destroyed 167 kilograms of seized cocaine at the Teshie Shooting Range in Accra.
In 2009, NACOB announced a one-year campaign "to raise public awareness of the harmful effects of illicit drugs on the economic, social, political and cultural aspects of the country and its security." The campaign's theme was "Do Drugs Control Your Life?", and it featured movie screenings, TV and radio discussions, and competitions for paintings and essays. The campaign was targeted primarily at high-school juniors and seniors.

## Collaborations with other agencies

NACOB forms partnerships with other agencies both in and outside of Ghana. One such collaboration led to the formation of the Operation West Bridge project in 2007, which was introduced at Ghana's Kotoka International Airport by the UK government. This collaboration has led to the interception of illicit drugs worth 214 million British pounds since its inception.

## Successes

NACOB in combating narcotic drug trafficking organizes training programmes for its staff and gathers intelligence on the illicit drug trade. The result of these has been a reduction in the illicit drug trade. One of the board's successes came in 2004 when the Customs Office of the United Kingdom commended the board for seizing 42 kilograms of cocaine concealed in sacks of rice imported from Guyana at Tema Port in two 20-foot containers in September 2003.

## Challenges

Problems that faces the board include the lack of adequate resources as well as remuneration for law enforcement personnel.

# Torpedo Stadium (Vladimir)

56°07′24.70″N 40°23′32.92″E﻿ / ﻿56.1235278°N 40.3924778°E﻿ / 56.1235278; 40.3924778
Torpedo stadium is a football stadium situated in the central part of Vladimir city, Russia.
The stadium, built in 1948-1950, consisted of a football field and running-track, had a seating capacity of more than 19,700. Renovations in 1958 improved the quality of the football pitch, improving athletic conditions.
In 1978 the stadium was destroyed presupposing that the new one will be constructed for Olympic team training, but no financing came from Moscow, so Vladimir had no stadium until 1988 when Vladimir Tractor Factory found a way to get extra money from Soviet Ministry of Transport particularly for sporting needs. The quality of the building was poor, so until now it has already had several repairs.
# Sant'Angelo in Formis

Sant'Angelo in Formis is an abbey in the municipality of Capua in southern Italy. The church, dedicated to St Michael the Archangel, lies on the western slopes of Monte Tifata.

## History

The church was once referred to as ad arcum Dianae ("near the Arch of Diana"), as it lies on the remains of a Roman temple to that goddess.
The church was built in the eleventh century by Desiderius, the abbot of Monte Cassino, who also rebuilt that abbey. At Monte Cassino the decoration was carried out by Byzantine (Greek) artists hired from Constantinople and the decoration of Sant'Angelo displays a mingling of the Byzantine (Eastern) and Latin (Western) traditions. The frescos were painted by Greek artists and by Italian pupils trained in their methods.

## Decoration

Examples of the mingling of Byzantine and Latin styles (as cited by James Hall) include:
1. The "lunette over the entrance with a half-length figure of St. Michael and above him an orant Virgin in a medallion supported by flying angels, with an inscription in Greek on the lintel at the foot. The treatment is wholly Byzantine except for the Latin motif of a crown on the Virgin's head".
2. The evangelists around the enthroned Christ in the Apse are in the form of the four symbolic creatures of the Latin tradition, rather than being shown as figures (often seating at writing desks) in the Greek manner.
3. Subjects from the Old Testament and New Testament line the walls of the nave. The content of individual scenes and the grouping of figures is described by Hall as being "typically Byzantine", but the whole forms an historical narrative series on the Western model, evidently just as in the basilicas of early Christian Rome.
# Polygonus (mythology)

In Greek mythology, Polygonus (Ancient Greek: Πολύγονος means 'prolific') was the Thracian son of the sea god Proteus by Torone (Chrysonoe) of Phlegra. He was the brother of Telegonus. Polygonus was also called Tmolus in some accounts.

## Mythology

Due to Polygonus' and Telegonus' "stranger-slaying wrestling", Proteus prayed to his father Poseidon to carry him back to Egypt away from them. Under the command of Hera, the brothers challenged the hero Heracles to wrestle but lost their lives in the battle.

# Elysian Park

Elysian Park is one of the largest parks in Los Angeles, California, United States, at 600 acres (240 ha). Most of Elysian Park falls in the neighborhood of the same name, but a small portion of the park falls in Echo Park.
The park was created by city ordinance on April 5, 1886. City engineer George Hansen sponsored the ordinance. The land was considered "worthless" at the time and only a few other parks existed within the Los Angeles city limits. For some time the land sat unimproved, but eventually roads, trails, and landscaping was added.
Parts of Elysian Park were swapped for other lands held by the Los Angeles Dodgers when Dodger Stadium was built.

## Notable features

Angels Point is a small hill in Elysian Park overlooking Dodger Stadium and the Downtown Los Angeles skyline. Atop the hill is a large metal sculpture art installation by local artist Peter Shire of the 1980s postmodern Memphis Group.

Marion Harlow Memorial Grove is a small tree and plant grove along the Elysian Park hiking trail.
The Avenue of the Palms was planted around 1895.
A section of the park called Radio Hill, beneath a radio tower, used to have a native plant garden and spice and herb gardens, but fell into an unmaintained state. As of 2021, advocates were seeking to revitalize the Radio Hill area with new trails and a dog park.

## History

What is now Elysian Park was part of the original Spanish land grant for the Pueblo of Los Angeles.
