# Capital punishment in Grenada

Capital punishment is a legal penalty in Grenada. Despite its legality, there have been no executions since 1978. Grenada is considered "abolitionist in practice", and is currently the only country in the Americas in this category. There is currently one person on death row in Grenada, as of August 30, 2021. During its United Nations Universal Periodic Review on January 27, 2020, Grenada informed the UN that it was a de facto abolitionist state with a de facto moratorium in effect since 1978, and that it would not carry out any executions. Abolishing capital punishment in law was part of one of the amendments during the failed 2016 Grenadian constitutional referendum. Grenada voted against the United Nations moratorium on the death penalty in 2007, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, and most recently, in 2020. Grenada is not a signatory to the Second Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
Notable examples of people sentenced to death (but not executed) in Grenada's history include Hudson Austin and Bernard Coard.

# American Optical Company Historic District

The American Optical Company Historic District encompasses a historic industrial complex on the Quinebaug River in Southbridge, Massachusetts. Located on roughly 80 acres (32 ha) east of downtown Southbridge, the complex was developed between the 1880s and 1950s by the American Optical Company (AO), one of the largest manufacturers of eyewear at the turn of the 20th century. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2023.

## Description and history

The American Optical Company was founded in Southbridge in 1869, by the merger of several other lens manufacturers whose origins in the town dated back to the 1830s. The company was at first located on East Main Street, but it soon relocated to Mechanic Street, where one of its largest surviving plant buildings still stands. Over the next century the company expanded greatly, occupying land on both sides of the Quinebaug River. By the early 20th century, it was the world's largest manufacturer of eyewear, with multiple manufacturing facilities and an international sales force. Although the company's independent existence ended in 1967, portions of its manufacturing facilities continue to be used by successors for glass-related manufacturing.
The company's facilities sprawl across about 80 acres (32 ha), occupying land on both sides of the Quinebaug River and an on island in the river. The former main plant, dating to the early 20th century, is located on Mechanic Street on the river's south bank, and was designed by Earle & Fuller. Now housing a hotel and conference center, this large brick building has fine Romanesque styling. Later buildings of the complex are generally concrete construction, with the lens plant specifically sited and designed to minimize the intrusion of dust into the glass manufacturing processes.

Its highest point is Borel Hill (2,572 feet or 784 metres) with views extending east across the San Francisco Bay from San Jose to San Francisco, and west to the Pacific Ocean.

## Flora

Poppies and lupines are the primary flowers that dominate the green, lush rolling meadows in the spring to early summer, but in the late summer the hills turn gold and are covered with flowers such as the cluster-lily, gumweed, mule's ear, and farewell to spring. In shaded areas, one can expect to see thimbleberry and a variety of ferns growing.

## Fauna

Several animals can be found on the preserve including coyote, bobcat, bats, California newts and birds such as the American kestrel and northern harrier.

## History

Russian Ridge is named after a Russian immigrant, Mr. Paskey, who leased a dairy farm here from the 1920s to 1950 from James "Sunny Jim" Rolph, Jr., then mayor of San Francisco and later California's 27th governor.
The district acquired the land starting in 1978 from later owners who had plans to develop it into subdivisions.

## Access

Parking for the preserve can be found in two parking lots — one lot as roadside parking on the northbound direction of Skyline Boulevard, the other, the Audrey C. Rust Commemorative Site, named after the former president of the Peninsula Open Space Trust, is located just off Alpine Road near the Alpine Road and Skyline Boulevard intersection.
It can also be accessed through neighboring preserves, such as the Skyline Ridge Open Space Preserve through the south-east end of the Ridge Trail (part of the Bay Area Ridge Trail system), as well as the Coal Creek Open Space Preserve, by crossing Skyline Boulevard from Coal Creek's Clouds Rest Trail to Russian Ridge's Ridge Trail.
# Robin Jarvis

Robin Jarvis (born 8 May 1963) is a British young adult fiction (YA) and children's novelist, who writes dark fantasy, suspense and supernatural thrillers. His books for young adults have featured the inhabitants of a coastal town battling a monumental malevolence with the help of its last supernatural guardian (The Witching Legacy), a diminutive race of Werglers (shape shifters) pitched against the evil might of the faerie hordes (The Hagwood Trilogy), a sinister "world-switching" dystopian future, triggered by a sinister and hypnotic book (Dancing Jax), Norse Fates, Glastonbury crow-demons and a time travelling, wise-cracking teddy bear.

# William Eden Nesfield

William Eden Nesfield (2 April 1835 – 25 March 1888) was an English architect. Like his some-time partner, Richard Norman Shaw, he designed several houses in Britain in the revived 'Old English' and 'Queen Anne' styles during the 1860s and 1870s. He was also a designer and painter.

## Biography

William Eden Nesfield was born in Bath on 2 April 1835, the eldest son of the landscape architect and painter William Andrews Nesfield. He was educated at Eton College.
In 1850 he was articled to the architect William Burn, but after two years he moved to the practice of his uncle by marriage, Anthony Salvin. He studied architectural drawing under James Kellaway Colling. He travelled widely in the 1850s, and published his drawings in Specimens of Mediaeval Architecture (1862), which was dedicated to William Craven, 2nd Earl of Craven.
Around 1860 he started his own architectural practice; but he soon linked up with his friend Richard Norman Shaw, with whom he was in a formal partnership between 1866 and 1869, though they kept their jobs separate.
Nesfield and Shaw contributed greatly to the new styles of domestic architecture in Britain, which began in the 1860s and flourished in the 1870s, notably the Old English and Queen Anne styles. Many of Nesfield's clients were rich friends of his father's, and his designs tended to be more extravagant and ornamental than Shaw's. Notable examples were additions to Combe Abbey, Warwickshire (1862–5, mostly demolished); Cloverley Hall, Shropshire (1866–8, partly demolished);Leawood Hall, Holloway, Derbyshire for William Walker owner of the Hat factory Kinmel Hall, Flintshire (1871–4) and Bodrhyddan (1872–4). He also designed many small lodges and cottages, most famously a lodge in Regent's Park (demolished), and another at Kew Gardens (1866–7), both in London. He also designed the Victoria Gate (1868), one of the main entrances into the Gardens, along with nearby Cumberland Gate. At Loughton, Nesfield designed (1877) the church of St Nicholas, and was then commissioned (1878) to rebuild Loughton Hall, both for the Maitland family. In Montgomeryshire, Nesfield largely rebuilt St Beuno's Church, Bettws Cedewain and redesigned Maesmawr Hall in 1876.
Nesfield gave up architectural practice around the time his father died in 1881, and retired to Brighton, where he died in 1888 at the age of 52. He is usually considered one of the most original of the Victorian domestic architects. He was not interested in publicity but preferred to pursue his career privately and enjoy himself with his bohemian friends, many of them artists.
# Daphne's Greek Cafe

Daphne's Greek Cafe or, Daphne's California Greek, is an American fast-casual Greek restaurant operating in California. The restaurant name refers to Daphne of Greek mythology whom the god Apollo desired.
Daphne's was rated #11 in 2006 Top 100 Movers and Shakers in the Fast Casual magazine.
   Named after the Greek symbol for excellence, Daphne’s Greek Café is a trendsetter in fast casual. The 70-unit chain recently implemented an English-speaking course for its employees. Throw in the best chain gyros and you’ve got one heckuva restaurant.
Daphne's was voted Best Greek in the June 2008 issue of San Diego Magazine.

## History

Daphne's Greek Cafe was founded by George Katakalidis in 1991. The chain entered bankruptcy in January 2010. It currently has 60 locations throughout Arizona and California and was recently purchased out of bankruptcy by an investor group headed by William Trefethen. In 2011, Daphne's name changed to Daphne's California Greek with a new concept that has been characterized as: a “hybrid” of California-meets-Greek cuisine, with an emphasis on freshness.
Daphne's California Greek continued their re-branding effort under William Trefethen group for about four years before suddenly selling the company to a Chicago investment group named Victory Park Capital.
In early 2024, all remaining locations in Orange County and San Diego County closed. As of April 2024, only six locations remain; five locations are in Southern California and one is in the Sacramento area. They are Simi Valley, Thousand Oaks, Redondo Beach, Temecula, Ontario, and Roseville.

# Cardiovascular disease in China

Cardiovascular disease in China is on the rise. Health statistics shows that the ischemic heart disease mortality rate in rural China has approximately doubled since 1988. While heart disease rates have been rising more rapidly in rural regions since 2009, Cardiovascular disease is the primary cause of mortality among both urban and rural populations, accounting for nearly half of all deaths in 2020.
Unlike in developed countries, there is no preventive or primary health care system in place to stop the rise of cardiac disease. The true prevalence of heart disease in rural China remains unclear due to rural providers have low levels of competence to diagnose and manage patients presenting with cardiovascular disease despite expanded access to primary care. There is a need to ascertain the real incidence and prevalence of heart disease and to develop adequate preventive and primary care in the Chinese countryside.

## Stroke

Stroke is the largest cardiovascular killer in China at about 40% of total mortality in 2007 (approx. 280 per 100 000)
# Clarinet Polka

"The Clarinet Polka" or "A Hupfata" (Polish "Polka Dziadek", Estonian "Vanaisa polka" – Grandpa Polka) is a popular musical composition from the end of the 19th century. Since 1971 it has been used as an opener in Lato z Radiem − one of the most popular shows of Polskie Radio Program I. The piece, performed (as its name implies) as a polka, has a simple and catchy melody, featuring a prominent extended eight-note arpeggio. It is typically performed in B-flat major.
According to Polskie Radio Program I, the music was created in Austria by a composer named A. Humpfat. Other sources claim that "The Clarinet Polka" was written under the name "Dziadunio Polka" by the Polish composer Karol Namysłowski.
# Lone Legion Brotherhood

The Lone Legion Motorcycle Association was an outlaw motorcycle club located in Blenheim, New Zealand.
The Lone Legion established itself in Blenheim during the 1970s, and considered the town its exclusive territory, successfully excluding other gangs from town until about 2007.
In September 2007, a fatal shooting outside the clubhouse resulted in four gang members being charged with murder, with one being found guilty. In the aftermath of the shooting, the gang demolished its clubhouse, apparently in anticipation of Police seeking a court order to demolish fortifications. In 2010, gang members built a warehouse on a new site. The family of the murder victim criticized both the Marlborough District Council and Police for allowing the gang to establish a new pad.
According to media and Police the club is a member of the "A-Team", an alliance between several NZ biker groups including the Outcasts MC, the Epitaph Riders MC, the Forty-Fives MC, the Southern Vikings MC, Satan's Slaves MC, Sinn Fein MC and the Lost Breed MC.
In 2019, Carl Bradley, writing in the NZ Herald, reported that the Lone Legion had patched over to the Outlaws MC.
# Luca Percassi

Gianluca 'Luca' Percassi (born 25 August 1980 in Milan) is an Italian retired footballer.
A defender, Percassi came through the youth system at Atalanta, before signing for Chelsea as a 17-year-old, along with teammate Samuele Dalla Bona. Unlike Dalla Bona, however, he struggled to break into Chelsea's first team and only made two appearances, both as a substitute. He joined Monza on a free transfer in October 2000 and then had spells with Alzano and Spezia.
In 2004, he retired from football to enter into entrepreneurship, following his father's footsteps.
In June 2010 his father Antonio Percassi acquired the football club, Atalanta, the first club of Luca Percassi, from the Ruggeri family. Luca Percassi became the CEO (Italian: Amministratore Delegato) of Atalanta.
# PowerPC Reference Platform

PowerPC Reference Platform (PReP) was a standard system architecture for PowerPC-based computer systems (as well as a reference implementation) developed at the same time as the PowerPC processor architecture. Published by IBM in 1994, it allowed hardware vendors to build a machine that could run various operating systems, including Windows NT, OS/2, Solaris, Taligent and AIX.
One of the stated goals of the PReP specification was to leverage standard PC hardware. Apple, wishing to seamlessly transition its Macintosh computers to PowerPC, found this to be particularly problematic. As it appeared no one was particularly happy with PReP, a new standard, the Common Hardware Reference Platform (CHRP), was developed and published in late 1995, incorporating the elements of both PReP and the Power Macintosh architecture. Key to CHRP was the requirement for Open Firmware (also required in PReP-compliant systems delivered after June 1, 1995), which gave vendors greatly improved support during the boot process, allowing the hardware to be far more varied.
PReP systems were never popular. Finding current, readily available operating systems for old PReP hardware can be difficult. Debian and NetBSD still maintain their respective ports to this architecture, although developer and user activity is extremely low. The RTEMS real-time operating system provides a board support package for PReP which can be run utilizing the QEMU PReP emulator. This provides a convenient development environment for PowerPC-based real-time, embedded systems.
Power.org has a Power Architecture Platform Reference (PAPR) that provides the foundation for development of Power ISA-based computers running the Linux operating system. PAPR was released in the fourth quarter of 2006.
# Selembu
