### Political positions

Zeleznikar has criticized "heavy handed regulations" for hurting the nursing home industry, as well as gaps in funding and labor shortages.

She opposed the year's tax bill and criticized DFLers for raising the gas tax, vehicle tab tax, and instituting a delivery tax on certain orders.
In her campaign, Zelznikar's top three issues were mental illness, supporting businesses through tax cuts, and fixing the education system. She said she would "fund the police, not defund the police, which led to increased murder rates and increased violent crime". Zeleznikar is anti-abortion, believes viability begins at conception, and supports regulations on abortion such as a 24-hour waiting period and banning abortion during the second and third trimesters.
Zeleznikar attacked her opponent, Mary Murphy, for being in office for 46 years and said she signed "a pledge to honor term limits for myself" without saying what the term limit was.

# Leon Štukelj

Leon Štukelj (listen; 12 November 1898 – 8 November 1999) was a Slovene professional gymnast. He was an Olympic gold medalist and athlete who represented Yugoslavia at the Olympics.
He is a noted figure in Slovenian sporting history. Štukelj is one of the first Slovene athletes to have risen to the very top of his sport, where he remained right from the World Championships in Ljubljana in 1922 all the way to the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin, at which point he finished his competitive gymnastics career.
Štukelj competed at seven major international competitions and won a total of twenty medals: eight gold, six silver, and six bronze. At the Olympic Games alone he won six medals: two gold medals (counted for Yugoslavia) in Paris in 1924, one gold medal and two bronze in Amsterdam in 1928, and a silver medal in Berlin in 1936.

## Biography

Štukelj was born in Kandija (part of Novo Mesto since 1923), Austria-Hungary (now in Slovenia). His baptismal record bears the name Leopold, crossed out and replaced with Leo. A 1999 addendum to the volume corrects the name Leo to Leon; his name appears as both Leo Štukelj and Leon Štukelj in newspapers of the 1920s and 1930s.
In 1927, Štukelj graduated with a degree in law. Since his youth, he was an active member of the Slovenian Sokol athletic movement. After finishing his sports career, he became a judge, first in his hometown of Novo Mesto. Later, he moved to Lenart, and then to Maribor, where he lived until his death. After World War II, Štukelj was not a supporter of the newly formed Communist regime of Yugoslavia. He took part in the Yugoslav royalist (Chetnik) movement, hostile to Tito's partisans, and maintained contacts with the British Special Operations Executive. For these reasons, he was suspicious to the new Communist regime. After the war, he was first imprisoned, then released; but permanently barred from being a judge. He worked as a legal assistant for the rest of his career.
Štukelj was presented at the opening ceremony of the Games of the XXVI Olympiad in Atlanta in 1996 as the oldest living Olympic gold medalist at the time, where he shook hands with the current President of the United States at the time, Bill Clinton. He also presented the medals to winners in the men's team competition.
His one-hundredth birthday in 1998 was a major celebration in Slovenia. Štukelj still exercised regularly until even just before his death, only four days short of his one-hundred and first birthday.
Today a sports hall in Novo Mesto, mainly used by a local basketball team, is named after him, in addition to the University Sports Hall situated on the campus of the University of Maribor.

## Hall of Fame

# Ted Winter

Theodore J. "Ted" Winter (born November 26, 1949) is a Minnesota politician and a former member of the Minnesota House of Representatives from southwestern Minnesota. First elected in 1986 in the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party's "firestorm" that swept through the region, giving Democrats unprecedented control of southwestern Minnesota for the next several election cycles, Winter served eight terms. He was re-elected in 1988, 1990, 1992, 1994, 1996, 1998 and 2000. He represented the old District 28A and, later, District 22A, which included all or portions of Cottonwood, Jackson, Lyon, Murray, Nobles and Redwood counties, changing somewhat through redistricting in 1992.

## Background and education

From the small farm town of Fulda, Winter graduated from Fulda High School in 1967, then went on to Worthington Community College in Worthington, graduating in 1970. He and his family maintain a farm in Nobles County just outside Fulda.

## Advocate for farmers and legislative leadership

A farmer himself, Winter earned a reputation as a strong advocate for farmers and agricultural issues during his time in office. He had also been an advocate of the somewhat militant Groundswell movement in the mid-1980s in its quest to bring political and social change on behalf of the region's farmers.
While in the legislature, Winter was a member of the House Agriculture, Economic Development, Environment and Natural Resources, Financial Institutions and Insurance, Governmental Operations, Insurance, Local and Urban Affairs, Rules and Legislative Administration, Taxes, Transportation and Transit, and Ways and Means committees, and of various sub-committees relevant to each area. He served as majority leader during the 1997–1999 biennium under House Speaker Phil Carruthers.

## Service to the Minnesota Farmer's Union

In 1998, Winter appeared before the United States House Committee on Agriculture to testify on behalf of the National Farmer's Union regarding the state of the agricultural economy. He ran for president of the Minnesota branch of the organization in 2002, losing to former Minnesota state representative Doug Peterson.
After his service in the legislature concluded, Winter took a position in Windom as an agent with the Minnesota Farmer's Union, which is a non-profit membership-based organization that works to protect and enhance the economic interests and quality of life of family farmers and ranchers and rural communities.

## 2010 House campaign

On June 1, 2010, Winter filed for the open House seat in District 22A, seeking to regain the position he lost to outgoing Rep. Doug Magnus in 2002. In announcing his candidacy, Winter stated he believed his "leadership abilities and past experience can make a real difference next year as we face another deep budget deficit," adding that he was "especially concerned that rural Minnesota be treated equitably" and "should not be expected to bear more than our fair share of budget cuts." He was unsuccessful in his comeback bid, losing the November 2, 2010, general election to Republican newcomer Joe Schomacker of Luverne.
# Kumkan Peak

Kumkan Peak is a 2,742-metre (8,996-foot) mountain summit located in British Columbia, Canada.

## Description

This remote glaciated peak is situated 31 km (19 mi) southwest of Lytton and is part of the Lillooet Ranges of the Coast Mountains. The nearest neighbor is Kwoiek Peak 2.35 km (1.46 mi) to the northwest and the nearest higher neighbor is Skihist Mountain, 12.82 km (8 mi) to the north. Meltwater from the Kwoiek Glacier on the north slope drains into Kwoiek Creek, thence Fraser River, and precipitation runoff from the peak's south slope drains into headwaters of Mehatl Creek → Nahatlatch River → Fraser River. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 1,240 metres (4,068 ft) above Mehatl Creek in 2 km (1.2 mi). The first ascent of the summit was made August 16, 1958, by four members of the British Columbia Mountaineering Club: Dick Culbert, Art Dellow, Roy Mason, and Ralph Hutchinson.

## Etymology

The mountain's name is the traditional name for "head", presumably a reference to the peak's position at the head of the Kwoiek Creek watershed. The toponym was officially adopted on April 3, 1950, by the Geographical Names Board of Canada.

## Climate

Based on the Köppen climate classification, Kumkan Peak is located in a subarctic climate zone of western North America. Most weather fronts originate in the Pacific Ocean, and travel east toward the Coast Mountains where they are forced upward by the range (Orographic lift), causing them to drop their moisture in the form of rain or snowfall. As a result, the Coast Mountains experience high precipitation, especially during the winter months in the form of snowfall. Winter temperatures can drop below −20 °C with wind chill factors below −30 °C. This climate supports the Kwoiek Glacier on the north slope of the peak. The months July through September offer the most favorable weather for climbing Kumkan Peak.

# Chiran Castle

Chiran Castle (知覧城, Chiran-jō) was a Japanese castle located in the Chiran area of the city of Minamikyūshū, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan. Its ruins were designated a National Historic Site in 1993.

## Overview

Chiran castle is located at a narrow point at the head of the Satsuma Peninsula overlooking a small valley formed by the Fumotogawa River, which forms part of the castle's defense network. This area is covered by volcanic ash consisting mostly of pumice, which is well-drained but largely unsuitable for rice cultivation. It is unknown when the castle was first constructed, but it is believed to have been in the 12th century by the local Chiran clan, around the time of the Shimazu shōen. During the Nanboku-chō period, the Shimazu clan supported either the Muromachi shogunate or Emperor Go-Daigo, using their geographic remoteness to play one power against the other, and replaced the Chiran clan with a cadet branch of the Shimazu called the Sata clan. However, from around 1400 the main branches of the Shimazu clan began an endless struggle against one another for domination of the clan. During this period, the Ijuin clan seized the west coast of Satsuma Peninsula, including the Chiran area. The Ijuin were defeated by the main Shimazu clan in 1427 and expelled from Chiran. In the Sengoku period, the Sata clan supported Shimazu Tadayoshi, his son Tadahisa and Tadahisa's four sons in their campaign to unify Kyushu under Shimazu rule. Sata Tadamasu was a high-ranking retainer of Shimazu Yoshihisa, and after the surrender of the Shimazu to Toyotomi Hideyoshi in 1587, he participated in Hideyoshi's battles against the Odawara Hōjō. However, the Sata clan was accused of piracy in 1591 and were dispossessed. The Sata clan returned to Chiran in 1610, but the castle burned down in 1615 and was abolished.
The castle town survived and was developed in the Edo Period as a residence for high ranking retainers of Satsuma Domain with the main street folded at the center for defense. Many of these samurai residences remain, and are protected by stone walls and hedges, and have Japanese gardens. The castle remains consists of over 10 terraces of different sized spreads about 250 meter long square, which are surrounded by vertical cliffs. The central area is roughly divided into north half and south half by valley. The central bailey is a square shaped are 50 meters long, at the east edge of north half. Each line of the area is protected by clay walls, and the entrance is built as a masugata-style compound gate. Many relics such as Chinese pottery, daily wares or iron objects have been found by archaeological excavation. In 2017, the castle was listed as one of the Continued Top 100 Japanese Castles.
The castle ruins are about 30-minutes from JR Kyushu Ibusuki-Makurazaki Line Hirakawa Station.
