# Paul D'Amato

Paul "Skinny" D'Amato (December 1, 1908 – June 5, 1984) also known as "Mr. Atlantic City", was the owner of the 500 Club in Atlantic City, New Jersey, from the 1940s until the club burned down in 1973.

## Early life

D'Amato was born to Italian American parents in 1908 in Atlantic City, New Jersey. He was one of eight children. When one or both of their parents died, D'Amato opened a cigar store at the age of 15 to help support the other seven children. The store was very successful.

## Career

D'Amato's initial success in Atlantic City began to grow when he opened up a restaurant and gambling hall called "Luigi's". He put the famous 500 Club under his ownership. He began working for corrupt Atlantic County treasurer Enoch "Nucky" Johnson and his political organization. D'Amato was also an associate of Chicago Outfit boss Sam Giancana and New Orleans crime family boss Carlos Marcello.
Philadelphia crime family underboss Marco Reginelli, a leader in the Italian Philadelphia-South Jersey mob for years, allegedly sold the 500 Club to D’Amato.

### The 500 Club

The 500 Club was allegedly a front for an illegal gambling operation. To draw gamblers, he had big-name entertainers such as Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis perform at the club.
He also managed a club in Lake Tahoe for Sinatra, for which he got troubles from the IRS and lost a lot of money when the casino commission linked Giancana to the Lake Tahoe operation and revoked its license in 1963. Mr. D'Amato was never convicted of a crime, and never spent a day in prison.
Soon Atlantic City began to decline and the 500 Club, once the most popular nightclub in the nation, along with it. Skinny's wife suffered medical problems for five years and died in 1972. In June 1973, The 500 Club burned to the ground. Skinny, with scant insurance, lost about $2 million on the fire. He never recovered — financially, emotionally or spiritually. D'Amato also owned 13% of the Cal Neva Lodge and Casino in Crystal Bay, Nevada. Giancana was also a silent partner in the resort, in which D'Amato also acted as Giancana's representative.

## Personal life and family

D'Amato married Betty Jane Creamer on June 4, 1949. The couple had two children and remained married until Creamer's death in 1972. In 1976, their son Angelo was charged with the murder of a co-worker at the D'Amato home in Ventnor. After his release from prison, Angelo was sentenced to 25-years-to-life in prison on October 7, 1983, for the murder of 28-year-old Keerans Carter in 1981.

## Death

D'Amato died on June 5, 1984, of a heart attack. His longtime close friend, entertainer Frank Sinatra, served as a pallbearer at his funeral. He is buried at Holy Cross Cemetery and Chapel Mausoleum in Mays Landing.

## In popular culture

D'Amato is portrayed by Robert Morelli in the television biopic about Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, titled Martin and Lewis (2002).

# Mariz Kemal

Mariz Kemal (Erzya: Маризь Кемаль; born 1950) is an Erzya language poet, leader of the Erzya native religion celebration Ras'ken' Ozks, and activist.
Kemal is a member of the Union of Writers of Russia and was a co-founder of the Uralic Communion.

## Work

In the August 1980 issue of "Syatko" the poem "Eykakschin lavs" ("Cradle of Childhood") was published.
In 1987, a common collection of four authors, Manya Vasolkst, was published, which also included a large selection of her poems. In 1988, the Mordovian book publishing house released her first collection, "Lavs" ("Cradle"), the main leitmotif of which was childhood and adolescence.
The second collection, "Shtatol" ("Candle", 1994), is a philosophical reflection about life, the fate of the Erzya people and her national identity. This included poems including "Mon - Erzyan!" ("I am Erzya!").
The result of a long-term study of Erzya folklore was a collection of essays, "Son Ulnest Erzyat" ("They were Erzya"), and a book of fairy tales, "Evkson Kuzho" ("Fairytale Meadow"), about famous representatives of the Erzya people.
In 1998, her poems were published in the collection "Nile Avat - Nile Morot" ("Four Women - Four Songs", published in Tallinn).
One of the many works of the poet is a small poem "Stepan Erzya Marto Kortnema" ("Conversation with Stepan Erzya", 1998), dedicated to the famous sculptor Stepan Erzya (Nefyodov), which deals with the problem of the loss of cultural heritage and the fate of the Erzya nation.
# Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific Steamship Corporation

The Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific Steamship Corporation of Baltimore, Maryland, was incorporated in May 1920. Its primary mission was to transport goods and produce across the Atlantic, across the Pacific and coast to coast via the Panama Canal. It was started by Baltimore natives W. Bernard Duke, President, Currall A. Askew, Vice President, and William B. W. Mann, Secretary and Treasurer. Duke had been President of the Seaboard Bank of Baltimore; Askew was previously General Manager of States Marine Company and Steamship Manager for Thomas Cook and Sons; Mann was formerly of Mann Shipbuilding Company.
Approximately $2 Million in capital was raised to begin the venture. With that amount six ships were purchased from the United States Shipping Board. The ships included the Charles H. Cramp, the Liberator, the H. S. Grove, the Cape Romain, the Cape Henry and the West Haven. They ranged in size from 7,400 dead weight tons to 11,700 and totaled 55,000 tons.
In 1921 they became the first company to transport citrus fruit between coasts via ship and the Panama Canal. The ship Charles H. Cramp brought that first shipment of fruit. The advantage touted by the shipping company was lower cost for the transport versus rail as well as less spoilage. To celebrate this milestone a luncheon was held at the Reunart Hotel in Baltimore February 5, 1921, with O. E. Goodman of the California Fruit Growers Exchange (which in 1952 became Sunkist, Inc.) and S. W. Collins of the U. S. Department of Agriculture attending as guests of honor. Collins had arranged the test shipment and made the voyage. Baltimore's Mayor William Frederick Broening also attended.
The Atlantic, Gulf & Pacific Steamship Corporation was bankrupted in August 1922 after little more than two years in operation, due to a rate war between seven different companies for the intercoastal trade. Atlantic, Gulf & Pacific was the first of the seven companies to go broke. At the time of the company's bankruptcy, it had paid only $195,000 of the $9,000,000 owed to the United States Shipping Board for the purchase of its six ships.
The company's President Bernard Duke claimed unfair treatment by the US Shipping Board in regard to the seizing of its ships and forced bankruptcy. His opinion was published in the December 1922 issue of the Nautical Gazette.
# Theta constant

In mathematics, a theta constant or Thetanullwert' (German for theta zero value; plural Thetanullwerte) is the restriction θ$_m$(τ) = θ$_m$(τ,0) of a theta function θ$_m$(τ,z) with rational characteristic m to z = 0. The variable τ may be a complex number in the upper half-plane in which case the theta constants are modular forms, or more generally may be an element of a Siegel upper half plane in which case the theta constants are Siegel modular forms. The theta function of a lattice is essentially a special case of a theta constant.

## Definition

The theta function θ$_m$(τ,z) = θ$_{a,b}$(τ,z)is defined by
    $\theta _{a,b}(\tau ,z)=\sum _{\xi \in Z^{n}}\exp \left[\pi {\rm {i}}(\xi +a)\tau (\xi +a)^{t}+2\pi i(\xi +a)(z+b)^{t}\right]$
where
* n is a positive integer, called the genus or rank.
* m = (a,b) is called the characteristic
* a,b are in R$^n$
* τ is a complex n by n matrix with positive definite imaginary part
* z is in C$^n$
* t means the transpose of a row vector.
If a,b are in Q$^n$ then θ$_{a,b}$(τ,0) is called a theta constant.

## Examples

If n = 1 and a and b are both 0 or 1/2, then the functions θ$_{a,b}$(τ,z) are the four Jacobi theta functions, and the functions θ$_{a,b}$(τ,0) are the classical Jacobi theta constants. The theta constant θ$_{1/2,1/2}$(τ,0) is identically zero, but the other three can be nonzero.

# The Go (Skunkhour album)

The Go is the fourth and final studio album by Australian band Skunkhour. It was released in 2001. "Home" was released as a single in 1999 and two further singles were taken from the album—"Gold Radiation" (April 2001) and "Kick in the Door".
Singer Aya Larkin said the band, which had been forced to abandon a European touring schedule after being dropped by Sony Music in 1998, had been overtaken by a sense of despondency and found it hard to write. "Chin Chin didn't go as well as we hoped it would and we felt the band's future had been discounted. It brought about a period where we questioned if we wanted to write together any more. We had a year and a half where we faffed around, tried to write, scrapped 15 songs. There'd be months where we didn't even get together to try stuff."
The "Home" single, he said, "just kind of happened. We released it as an independent single to see whether or not we wanted to keep going, and people really liked the song. We approached the rest of our writing in a new way, and from that came this new album."
The Go was recorded and mixed in kitchens, studios and INXS bassist Garry Gary Beers' studio in Mangrove Mountain on the New South Wales Central Coast and completed before the band was signed to Universal Music.
In November 2001, six months after the release of The Go, Skunkhour disbanded, frustrated by a lack of support from Universal, which was experiencing upheavals in Australia. Larkin said the difficulties with the label meant the band was unable to maximise its opportunities. "We decided that we'd rather move on now and look at some other possibilities while we're still drawing big crowds," he told the Brisbane Sunday Mail. "Unfortunately, the last album was only heard on Triple J and some community stations, so we didn't really reach the mainstream audience with it. This was despite our hopes that the album might have taken us to another level. It was given great reviews and we really thought the music got us back in touch with the fans. But overall, we just wanted to go out on a high. We didn't want to overstay our welcome."

## Life

Newburger was born on October 21, 1853 in the Lower East Side of New York City, the son of Emanuel Newburger and Lottie Fuchs.
Newburger attended Columbia Law School, graduating from there with an LL.B. in 1874. He then practiced law until 1890. Active in Tammany Hall, he unsuccessfully ran for the New York State Assembly. He was elected judge of the City Court in 1890, a position he held for five years. He was then elected to the Court of General Sessions, and in 1905 he was elected as a Tammany candidate Justice of the New York Supreme Court. When his term expired in 1919, Tammany chief Charles F. Murphy refused to back his candidacy for re-election due to differences that developed between them. In response, Newburger's friends formed an independent group to support his re-election campaign, the Republicans chose him as their candidate, and he was re-elected by a plurality of 80,000. He retired in the end of 1923, when he reached 70 and the state's age limitation. In the beginning of 1924, he was appointed Official Referee of the Supreme Court.

He was president of Independent Order B'nai B'rith District No. 1, an executive committee member of the Independent Order Free Sons of Israel and the Order Kesher Shel Barzel, and a trustee of the Hebrew Free Schools. He was a director and president of the Hebrew Orphan Asylum, and during his presidency the orphanage purchased a new site in the Bronx. He was also active in the Freemasons and Odd Fellows.
Newburger died of heart disease in his suite in the Hotel Champlain in Bluff Point on July 19, 1931. He had been undergoing treatment for a month at the Physicians' Hospital in Plattsburgh. His funeral took place in Temple Rodeph Sholom, which he was president of from 1884 to 1896. Rabbi Louis I. Newman delivered the eulogy. The honorary pallbearers included Chief Judge Benjamin N. Cardozo and Associate Judge Irving Lehman of the Court of Appeals, Presiding Justice Edward R. Finch of the Appellate Division, former Presiding Justice Victor J. Dowling of the Appellate Division, Federal Judge William Bondy, Supreme Court Justices Joseph M. Callahan, Albert Cohn, William T. Collins, John F. Carew, John Ford, and Bernard L.

# House of Nomikos

The House of Nomikos (Russian: Дом Номикоса) is an object of cultural heritage of regional value of the second half of the 19th century in the city of Taganrog of the Rostov Oblast. It is located at the address Grecheskaya Street, 53. Treats historical and cultural monuments.

## History

The house down the street Greek, 53 in the city of Taganrog appeared in the third quarter of the 19th century.

In 1866–67 the house down the street Greek, 53 was sold and carried over Kalomira Vasilyevna – Anton Dmitrievich Nomikos's wife. In documents of the first half of the 19th century information which, perhaps, concerns Anton Dmitrievich was saved: there is a birth record on August 1, 1831, and about a baptism on August 16 the same year of the boy Anthony — the son Andrey Grigoryevich Nomikos and Efimiya Larionov.

## Description

The corner two-storeyed house which was constructed in brick style. At the beginning of the 20th-century, additional architectural registration in the form of a balcony and a turret appeared. Capstones, sandrail, and brick platbands became the decoration of a facade. Windows on the second floor are created in a semi-circular form and framed with three-quarter brick columns. Figured and semi-circular pediments settle down over eaves with croutons.
