# Dick Pope Jr.

Richard Downing Pope Jr. (December 12, 1930 – November 8, 2007), better known as Dick Pope Jr., was a World Champion water skier and an important business leader in Central Florida. Pope was an important innovator in the sport of water skiing, including the development of barefoot skiing in 1947. He is the son of Dick Pope Sr., the founder of Cypress Gardens theme park.

## Personal life

Pope was born in Long Island, New York. When he was just 18 months old, the family moved to Winter Haven, Florida. In 1936, his parents, Dick Pope Sr. and Julie Pope, opened Cypress Gardens, one of the earliest theme parks in America. Dick Pope Sr. played an important role in the development of Florida tourism and the growth of the sport of water skiing.
Pope served in the United States Marine Corps. He was an avid hunter and fisherman. He was known to carry a scratch pad to make notes about fishing conditions. He was also an expert marksman and champion skeet shooter. Pope and his wife Frances at one time held the husband-wife 12-gauge world title for skeet shooting.
When Walt Disney was scouting for a location for a second, even larger theme park, the Pope family promoted Cypress Gardens and Central Florida. Dick Pope Jr. is said to have been key to convincing Walt Disney to select Orlando as the home of Walt Disney World.

## Water skiing career

In 1947, Pope was one of the first people to successfully barefoot waterski. He and his friends in Winter Haven, Florida discovered that if the speed of the boat was increased high enough, then barefoot waterskiing became possible. Photographs and newsreels of Pope barefoot waterskiing at speeds in excess of 40 mph became an international sensation at the time. The media attention was created by his father, Dick Pope Sr., to generate publicity for Cypress Gardens, but it also helped popularize water skiing worldwide. That same year, at age 17, Dick Pope Jr. won his first National Water Ski Title.
In 1949, Pope competed in the first Water Skiing World Championships. He skied all out at the first World Championships, taking youthful risks, and losing out to more conservative European skiers. In 1950, he won his first World Title. He was particularly known for tricks. He was one of several skiers from that era who would "climb the rope" in order to get greater height on a jump. This practice is banned in the sport today because of its extreme danger. In 1952, he became the first person to complete a 540 jump off a ramp.

## Cypress Gardens

Pope succeeded his father, Dick Pope Sr., as president of Cypress Gardens in 1962. He took the company public in 1972, and was elected chairman of the board in 1982 before the company was sold to Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, Inc.

# Šentjakob ob Savi

Šentjakob ob Savi (pronounced or; in older sources also Sveti Jakob ob Savi, German: Sankt Jakob) is a formerly independent settlement in the northeastern part of the capital Ljubljana in central Slovenia. It is part of the traditional region of Upper Carniola and is now included with the rest of the municipality in the Central Slovenia Statistical Region. It includes the hamlets of Pečnik and Soteska.

## Geography

Šentjakob ob Savi is a clustered settlement on a terrace above the Sava River east of Črnuče. The old channel of the Sava can be seen in the southern part of the village, where the river flowed before it was regulated during construction of the Austrian Southern Railway. The soil is sandy and fertile. The A1 Freeway runs directly east of the old village center.

## Name

The name Šentjakob ob Savi literally means 'Saint James on the Sava River'. The name Šentjakob is a compound of Slovene šent 'saint' and Jakob 'James', after whom the church in the village is named.

## History

Folk tradition says that a castle stood on the hill above the hamlet of Soteska and was destroyed by the Ottomans, but no trace of the structure remains today. Šentjakob ob Savi was a ferry point across the Sava River until 1584, when a bridge was built to serve the postal connection between Graz and Venice. The postal route was relocated via Kamnik in 1717 because of frequent flooding of the Sava. A part-time school was established in Šentjakob ob Savi in 1788, and regular schooling started in 1869. School was held in the sexton's house until 1903, when a schoolhouse was built. Before the Second World War, weaving straw was a traditional economic activity in the village, where they also produced tote bags made of straw. This activity was given up due to competition from Tyrol. The hamlet of Soteska was formerly an independent settlement, but was annexed to Šentjakob ob Savi in 1953, before Šentjakob ob Savi itself was annexed by the City of Ljubljana in 1984.

## Church

Saint James' Church was built in 1899 at the site of a former church that was destroyed in the 1895 Ljubljana earthquake. The Baroque bell tower of the old church was incorporated into the new structure. The church is decorated with a 1913 fresco by Simon Ogrin (1851–1930). The church initially belonged to the proto-parish of Mengeš, but was made the seat of a parish in 1787.

## Notable people

Notable people that were born or lived in Šentjakob ob Savi include the following.
* Anton Vilar (1884–1953), composer, organist, and photographer
* Valentin Vodnik's grandfather was born in Šentjakob ob Savi and moved to Trata when he married into the Žibert family

# Daugavgrīva

Daugavgrīva (German: Dünamünde; Polish: Dyjament; Russian: Усть-Двинск or Ust`-Dvinsk) is a neighbourhood in North West Riga, Latvia on the left bank of the Daugava river. In this neighbourhood there is a Swedish-built fortress on the Daugava River's left bank, commanding its mouth.

## Fortress

In Vecdaugava, on the right or opposite side of the Daugava (German: Düna) outside the borders of the contemporary neighborhood, was in 1208 Dünamünde castle built by the Teutonic Knights, which initially served as a monastery. The Swedish fortress of Neumünde on the right bank, designed in a Dutch style by General Rothenburg in 1641, replaced the ruined Dünamünde Castle by 1680.
In 1695 the Commandant was captain Heinrich Nicolaus Rüdinger, forefather of future Patriarch Alexy II of Russia. Rüdinger was knighted by Charles XI of Sweden. Joachim Cronman later became the Commandant and he died on March 5, 1703.
After the fortress was seized by the Russians they reconstructed it. Regent Anna Leopoldovna of Russia, her husband Anthony Ulrich, and her son Ivan VI were incarcerated in Dünamünde in 1742.
A local Lutheran church was rebuilt into the Orthodox Church of the Saviour's Transfiguration in 1775.
The Russian government renamed the fortress, where only Russian soldiers were living, to Ust-Dvinsk in 1893. They had its fortifications completely reconstructed prior to World War I. During the war Ust-Dvinsk was bombarded by the Schütte-Lanz Airship SL 7 of the German Army. After the fortress was taken by Imperial Germany, it was inspected by Emperor Wilhelm II in 1917. The Latvian government, however, demolished much of the fortifications several years later. During the Cold War Ust-Dvinsk was a base for Soviet troops. The site is now known in Latvian as Daugavgrīva. There is a functional lighthouse at Daugavgrīva which was originally built in 1818. It was rebuilt in 1863, 1920, and after World War II.
In March 1942 took place the so-called "Dünamünde Action". The Nazis informed the Judenrat of the ghetto of Riga that the people would go to a supposed town called Dünamünde to work at fish processing. Instead the people were taken by motor transport to Biķernieki forest, where they were shot and buried in common unmarked graves.
# The African (Courlander novel)

The African is a 1967 novel by Harold Courlander. By 1978 14,000 hard-cover and 130,000 paperback copies of the book were sold.

## Plot

A twelve-year-old African boy, Hwesuhunu, is kidnapped from his homeland by French slave traders, and endures the terrors of the Middle Passage and being sold into slavery. Hwesuhunu is brought to the island of Saint Lucia, and is later sold to a Georgia plantation for US$100.
He is assigned the new name of Wes Hunu, and spends years as a slave before escaping and living for a time with Native Americans. Hwesuhunu goes to Freedom Island, a refuge located in a swamp, that sheltered escaped slaves. But the refuge is governed by a cruel bully, so Hwesuhunu leaves in search of a better home.

## Roots controversy

The novel became the subject of controversy when it was revealed that author Alex Haley had plagiarized sections of The African for his own 1976 novel Roots, which later was made into a 1977 television miniseries, a 1979 sequel miniseries, and a 2016 television miniseries remake.
In 1978, Haley paid Courlander and his publisher $650,000 (~$2.38 million in 2023) as out-of-court settlement of the lawsuit.

# Samukeliso Moyo

Samukeliso Moyo (born 1 January 1974 in Gwanda) is a female long-distance runner from Zimbabwe. She represented her country at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia, and the 1999 World Championships in Seville, Spain.

## Biography

She claimed the bronze medal in the women's 5000 metres at the 1998 Commonwealth Games. She represented Zimbabwe at the IAAF World Cross Country Championships on a number of occasions, with her best finishes being tenth in the short race at the 1998 edition and fifteenth in the 1999 long race. She has won titles at the African Southern Regional Championships, including wins over 1500 metres, 5000 m and in cross country.
Moyo began focusing on road running competitions and won back-to-back titles at the São Silvestre de Luanda 15K race in Angola from 1997 to 1998. She won the Rand Athletic Club 10 km race in 2001, taking the title in a time of 34:24. She set a personal best in the marathon at the 2008 Pyongyang Marathon, where she finished with a time of 2:37:17. She won both the Johannesburg City Marathon and the Cape Town City Marathons that year, beating the competition by a large margin on both occasions. At the Soweto Marathon near the end of the year, she was runner-up to the defending champion Mamorallo Tjoka of Lesotho.
She won at the South Africa Marathon Championships in 2009 and returned to defend her title the following year. She succeeded in winning for a second time, but the victory was a somewhat hollow one for the athlete: "I did not really enjoy the race because the level of competition was low ... Last year I had to work much harder to win. It was more like a training run this time". Moyo's comparatively slow winning time of 2:48:56 was still eleven minutes ahead of the rest of the women's field. She will be taking part in the 2010 Nedbank Soweto Marathon on 7 November.
