# Patrick Joseph McGovern

Patrick Joseph McGovern Jr. (August 11, 1937 – March 19, 2014) was an American businessman, and chairman and founder of International Data Group (IDG), the company with subsidiaries in technology publishing, research, event management and venture capital.
In September 2013, he was listed on the Forbes 400 list of the wealthiest Americans, with a net worth of $5.1 billion.

## Biography

Forbes magazine wrote that in the 1950s, McGovern earned a college scholarship by designing an unbeatable tic-tac-toe program. During his sophomore year, he worked at the MIT student newspaper The Tech on the features staff. McGovern received a degree in course 7, or biology/life sciences, from MIT, in 1959.
After graduating, his first job was writing for a pioneering computer magazine, Edmund C. Berkeley's Computers and Automation. In 1964, McGovern founded International Data Corporation (IDC), which produced a computer-industry database and published the newsletter EDP Industry & Market Report (based on "ADP Newsletter", published by The Diebold Group). After three years, the company was losing money, and McGovern contemplated liquidating it. In 1967, he hit on the idea of making the newsletter into a weekly newspaper, Computerworld. After failing to wrest control of Computer and Automation from his friend and mentor Ed Berkeley, he subsequently started the magazine PC World.
In 1980, he created one of the first American-Chinese joint ventures, and in 1997, Forbes estimated that "Pat McGovern has more readers in China than the People's Daily does." In 1991, his company published "DOS For Dummies", the first of the very popular "For Dummies" series of books explaining various subjects to the layperson. Bloomberg News reported that IDG had 280 million regular readers of its publications, and annual revenues of $3.6 billion.

## Personal life

Although he was born in Queens, New York, his family moved when he was a child to Philadelphia, where he delivered newspapers at the age of eight. He was divorced once. He was the father of two children and two stepchildren, and divided his time between Hillsborough, California and Hollis, New Hampshire. He and his second wife donated $350 million to MIT to found the McGovern Institute for Brain Research. He was a trustee of MIT and of MIT's Whitehead Institute for Biomedical Research. He also served on the board of trustees Society for Science & the Public.
At the time of his death, surviving family members included his wife, Lore Harp McGovern, a son, Patrick McGovern, daughter Elizabeth McGovern, stepdaughters Michelle Harp Bethel and Dina Jackson, and nine grandchildren.

## Death

In May 2012, Patrick McGovern had open-heart surgery at the Cleveland Clinic. He died on March 19, 2014, aged 76.

### IDG legacy

After his death, the ownership of IDG was transferred to the McGovern Foundation; in 2016, the foundation retained Goldman Sachs to explore a sale. On March 29, China Oceanwide Holdings Group announced the closure of the acquisition of International Data Group, Inc. ("IDG"). In June 2021, it was announced that the company had again been sold to The Blackstone Group, for $1.3 billion.
# Arkan Simaan

Arkan Simaan (born 1945) is a Lebanese-French novelist.

## Biography

Arkan was born in Lebanon in 1945. When he was two years old, his family immigrated to Brazil and settled in the city of Anápolis near Brasília. The 1964 Brazilian coup d'état overthrew the government of João Goulart just as Simaan had begun studying physics at the University of São Paulo. In response to this, he became a student activist. Sought by the political police and sentenced to jail in absentia, he went underground. His name was then cited in several prosecutions. Forced to flee Brazil, he arrived in Paris in 1970.
After a few years in France, Simaan refrained from activities that were connected with his prior political involvement. In Paris he resumed his studies in physics at the University Paris Diderot. He then attended the Institut Supérieur des Matériaux et de la Construction Mécanique from which he received an engineering degree. Following a short spell in industry, he realized that he wanted to teach, so he obtained the agrégation in physics.
In 2012 he was one of the founders of Planète Amazone, a French non-governmental organization defending indigenous peoples. He took part in the travels in Europe of the chief Raoni.
Arkan Simaan is member of the scientific patronage committee of Association Française pour l'Information Scientifique.

# Scaling Dam Reservoir

Scaling Dam Reservoir is a freshwater man-made lake on the edge of the A171 road in North Yorkshire, England. The reservoir is near to the hamlet of Scaling from where it derives its name, and was built in 1958.
The reservoir lies inside the North York Moors National Park and the western half is in the Borough of Redcar and Cleveland, whilst the eastern half is in the Borough of Scarborough.

## History

Scaling Dam Reservoir was built between 1952 and 1958 at a cost of £450,000 and is the largest lake in the North York Moors. The area that the reservoir is built in was named Scaling Dam long before the reservoir was built in 1958; mapping and records show a hamlet of Scaling Dam in the early nineteenth century, and the name is mentioned in Camden's 17th century "Britannia". The dam was constructed by the Tees Valley and Cleveland Water Company and despite being in North Yorkshire (though its on the border between Redcar and Cleveland and the Borough of Scarborough), the dam is owned and regulated by Northumbrian Water. However, fresh water from the dam was historically supplied to Yorkshire Water, though this practice stopped in 2012.
Unusually, the dam wall is long, running along the width of the reservoir on the northern side. Dam walls are usually narrow against the water that they hold back. As such the deepest point, near the dam wall, is only 30 feet (9 m).
Water leaving the dam exits as Dam Beck, which on its 3.7-mile (6 km) journey to the North Sea via the fishing village of Staithes, changes to Roxby Beck, Easington Beck and then finally Staithes Beck.

## Recreational uses

As the Environment Agency classify the water quality as being good, Scaling Dam Reservoir is a suitable venue for angling, walking and swimming. The dam also is home to the Scaling Dam Sailing Club. There is a visitor centre and shop which sells angling supplies and parts of the reservoir are accessible for disabled anglers.

## Wildlife

Besides the fish (which have been introduced for angling), the site is noted for a regular appearance of ospreys during the spring and summer months, and the Nathusius' pipistrelle bat. As Scaling Dam is located close to the North Sea coast, it is an attractive site for migratory birds during the winter months, when human activity on the dam is not allowed.
The western edge of the reservoir is also the site of a nature reserve, and whilst there is no public access, people can walk around the edges of the reserve and the reservoir.

# George Wilks

George James Wilks (23 February 1908 – 18 December 1981) was a British motorcycle speedway rider who rode for Harringay and Wembley. He earned nine international caps for the England national speedway team.

## Career

Born in East End of London, Wilks was riding motorbikes before he was a teenager, racing in grasstrack and also travelled to the Isle of Man to compete in the TT in 1929, only to suffer injuries in practice which led to five months in hospital, and a break of three years from motorcycle racing. In the early 1930s he won the South Midlands grasstrack title several times, and was encouraged to move to speedway by Australian international Frank Arthur. He first rode for Harringay, transferring to Hackney Wick at the end of 1935 for a transfer fee of £25. In early 1938 he was transferred to Wembley for £350, finishing as third-highest points scorer in his first season with the Lions. He worked in a factory during World War II, returning to Wembley when speedway resumed, and was part of the team that won the National League Championship and the London Cup in 1946.
Wilks was first called up by England in 1939, as a reserve in the final test against Australia at Wembley, but did not ride. In 1947 he rode at reserve for England in the second test match against Australia at West Ham, scoring ten points from four rides. He also rode in the final test at Wembley, scoring nine points. He rode in the first test at Wimbledon in 1948, scoring eleven points in England's 61–45 win.
Wilks continued to ride for Wembley in 1948, but his career was interrupted by a fractured thigh. The following season in 1949, he was loaned to West Ham as a temporary replacement for Eric Chitty who had broken a leg. He retired in 1954. He opened a bicycle shop in Radlett, Hertfordshire. In 1975 George and his son, who ran the shop with him, changed the bicycle shop into a Honda motorcycle dealership.

## Players cigarette cards

Wilks is listed as number 49 of 50 in the 1930s Player's cigarette card collection.
# Nastapoka River

The Nastapoka River is a tributary of Eastern shore of Hudson Bay, flowing in the administrative region of Nord-du-Québec, in Quebec, Canada. This river is one of the most important rivers of Nord-du-Québec, the 39th of Quebec because its watershed of 13,400 square kilometres (5,200 sq mi).

## Geography

The Nastapoka River flows into the Nastapoka Channel, on the eastern slope of Hudson Bay, almost at the center of the Nastapoka Islands archipelago, after a run of some 400 kilometres (250 mi), at 40 kilometres (25 mi) north of the Inuit village of Umiujaq, Quebec and the immense Richmond Gulf.
This watercourse dotted with falls and rapids has its source in the Lacs des Loups Marins (English: Lake of Sea Wolves) (length: 84 kilometres (52 mi); width: 12 kilometres (7.5 mi); altitude: 373 metres (1,224 ft); area: 484 square kilometres (187 sq mi)), one of the few freshwater bodies in the world where seals can be seen.
The Nastapoka River Basin was originally part of the project to create the Lac-Guillaume-Delisle and Lac-à-l'Eau-claire National Park. In its most recent version, the Nastapoka Basin was removed for reasons of potential hydroelectric development.

## Toponym

The name "Nastapoka", expression of the Cree language, means someone found there a caribou killed by the rapids, meaning that fits perfectly with the landscape data, because just before its mouth, the river reaches sea level with a crash down Nastapoka Falls and its steep vertical drop of 35 metres (115 ft). The falls are a popular destination for visitors to Tursujuq National Park.
The Nastapoka River, between Kuujjuarapik and Inukjuak, also belongs to the land of the Inuit who named it Patirtuuq, that is, [where found] a large amount of bone marrow. The name Nastapoka River appears in the report of an exploration mission carried out in the sector in 1877 by the scientist Robert Bell. For its part, the name Rivière Nastapoka appears on the map of Quebec, leaflet north, published in 1914 by the Department of Lands and Forests. Its course, discontinuous, is approximate. The 1914 edition of the Dictionary of Rivers and Lakes of the Province of Quebec bears, probably by mistake, the Nastakopa form. It was in 1946 that the Quebec Geography Commission accepted the name Rivière Nastapoka. The official Quebec map of 1949 and the editions of 1969 of the Gazetteer and 1978 of the Toponymic Repertoire, among other documents, however, have the Nastapoca form. The Commission de toponymie restored the Nastapoka script in 1986. "

# Gordon Rorke

Gordon Frederick Rorke (born 27 June 1938) is a former Australian cricketer who played in four Test matches in 1959.
Rorke made his Test debut in January 1959 in the Fourth Test of The Ashes series against England in Adelaide. It was an impressive debut, taking 3/23 off 18.1 eight-ball overs in the first innings (including the wickets of Colin Cowdrey for 84, Tom Graveney and Willie Watson) and 2/70 from 34 overs in the second innings. Rorke claimed three wickets in the Fifth Test at Melbourne a fortnight later, and was selected to tour Pakistan and India the following year.
A six-foot-five-inch (or 1.96 m) "Blond Giant", Rorke was the fastest Australian bowler at the time and was accused of throwing by the English press, but this paled beside his dragging. With his seven-foot stride, if dragging his rear foot a yard over the crease he could be only eighteen yards from the batsman when he finally delivered the ball. At times he seemed impossible to score from. Fred Trueman was no balled for dragging his foot a couple of inches over the crease and wrote "It was really annoying as this umpire seemed to allow Gordon Rorke to bowl with both his feet over the front line!" One picture showed him with his rear foot past the bowling crease before he had even begun to drag. Colin Cowdrey joked "I was frightened that he might tread on my toes".
Rorke did not play Pakistan in the opening three Tests of the 1959–60 tour, but was selected when Ray Lindwall withdrew from the opening Test against India at Delhi. Rorke played little role in the following Test at Kanpur, bowling only two overs before being forced to retire ill. His situation became so grave he was flown back to Australia for medical treatment. Following this illness, Rorke struggled in first-class cricket, eventually losing his place in the New South Wales Sheffield Shield squad in 1964. Since the end of his playing career he has had three knee replacements. He and his wife have four children and 11 grandchildren.
