# Hercules Glades Wilderness

The Hercules Glades Wilderness is a 12,314-acre (50 km$^2$) wilderness area in Taney County in the Ozarks of southwest Missouri. The United States Congress designated it a wilderness in 1976, making it the oldest wilderness area in Missouri. It is one of eight wilderness areas in the Mark Twain National Forest and is within the Ava-Cassville-Willow Springs ranger district, about 10 miles (16 km) northeast of Branson, Missouri. Hercules Glades Wilderness derives its name from the open limestone glades (balds) that dot its landscape. The high points of Coy Bald and Pilot Knob stand 600 feet above Long Creek and offer splendid views of the drainage. Near the middle of the wilderness area is the main set of waterfalls, though Long Creek has several other smaller waterfalls and cascades along its path.

## Flora and fauna

The flora is a mix of typical oak and hickory forests interspersed with open post oak savannahs and rocky, desert-like glades; it is home to many species of plants and wildlife. This includes some that are often considered to be southwestern species. prickly pear cacti, roadrunner, scorpions, collared lizard, pygmy rattlesnakes, and even tarantulas call Hercules Glades Wilderness home, not to mention other wildlife more common in Missouri like the white-tailed deer and wild turkey. Hercules Glades Wilderness is also home to many species of plants that are Ozark endemics. Some of these plants are Bush's skullcap (Scutellaria bushii), Ozark corn salad (Valerianella ozarkana), purple penstemon (Penstemon cobaea var. purpureus), and Trelease's larkspur (Delphinium treleasei). Depending on past land-use histories (fire, grazing, and logging primarily) some places within Hercules Glades Wilderness exhibit floral diversities that rival other areas in Missouri.

## Trails

Hercules Glades has 32 miles (51 km) of trails that are popular for foot travel and horseback riding, and there are camping facilities available, with three main trailheads: the Coy Bald trailhead on the west edge, the Blair Ridge trailhead on the south edge, and the Tower trailhead on the east edge. The trails lack bridges when crossing the various shallow creeks within the wilderness area. The trailheads of the wilderness area are accessed from county roads branching off of U.S. Route 160 and Route 125.
# 59 West 12th Street

59 West 12th Street is a residential building located in the Greenwich Village Historic District in Lower Manhattan, New York City, United States.
It was built by the developer brothers Bing & Bing with noted architect Emery Roth whose other work includes The Beresford and The El Dorado.
It was granted a certificate of occupancy on August 7, 1931 and houses 101 condominium apartments.

## Development

It was part of a simultaneous development of five buildings in the area.
Bing and Bing also used Roth to design 299 West 12th Street.
They worked with the architectural firm of Boak and Paris on both 302 West 12th Street and 45 Christopher Street.
And they chose to work with architect Robert T. Lyons on 2 Horatio Street.

## Rivaling Central Park West

Leo Bing announced on April 1, 1929 that his firm had quietly acquired 75 small lots and old buildings largely around Abingdon Square, Sheridan Square and Jackson Square Park. And the lots would be combined to allow for a set of larger-scale, 17-story apartment buildings.
He said his goal was to "recreate the entire district as a modern counterpart of the high-class residential section it once was" saying it would "rival Central Park West and the fashionable east side within a few years." He cited the goal of neighborhood reinvention as the reason for the simultaneous building, saying his hope was that "complete transformation of the section may be achieved as quickly as possible."
Despite the start of the Great Depression just months after Leo Bing's announcement, by September 1931, Bing & Bing reported that the "five new buildings on Christopher, Horatio and West Twelfth Streets are proving among the most popular of all the Bing & Bing apartment properties. Callers have been numerous … and a high percentage of the space has been leased."

# João Mendes (merchant)

João Mendes was a Portuguese merchant and the first documented Westerner to arrive in Korea.

## Biography

João Mendes was born around 1570, and was a Portuguese merchant active in Southeast Asia in the beginning of the 17th century. At 34, he was in Phnom Penh, Cambodia when a Japanese fleet moved. Attracted by what he had heard about Japan, where other Portuguese traded, he boarded one of the returning boats, a large red ship, that intruded the waters of Tongyeong on June 14, 1604. Under the command of Yi Gyeong-jun, the Supreme Commander of the Three Provinces’ Naval Forces, the warship Panokseon (Korean: 판옥선) was dispatched to request a peaceful surrender. However, as the ship resisted until the end, a fierce battle ensued, ultimately resulting in its capture; Mendes and the rest of the surviving crew was taken prisoner by Joseon and was taken to the capital, Seoul, to be interrogated. Later he was moved to China.
At the time, Korea had recently been the target of an attempted Japanese invasion, repelled by Admiral Yi Sun-sin with support from the Ming dynasty. "The Chinese ended up handing João Mendes over to the Portuguese in Macau", says professor Kang. He is considered the first Westerner to set foot in the country located in other extreme of Eurasia and referred to in Korean annals as Ji-Wan-Myeon-Je-Su.

## Legacy

In 2024, his legacy was celebrated with two sculptures created by Portuguese artist Vhils (Alexandre Farto). One is installed in Tongyeong, South Korea, and the other is installed in Lisbon, Portugal.

# Josephine Medina

Josephine Rebeta Medina (March 20, 1970 – September 2, 2021) was a Filipino table tennis player. Medina represented the Philippines at the 2012 and 2016 Summer Paralympics.

## Early career

Medina was influenced to take up table tennis as a sport by her father who used to compete for the Philippines internationally. She was afflicted with poliomyelitis which affected the length of her legs. She competed with able-bodied players as a varsity player during her collegiate studies in order to cope with her family's financial problems.
She managed to qualify for a place at the national table tennis team but was later told she could not compete due to her disabilities.

## International career

Medina subsequently competed in tournaments for disabled athletes instead and competed at her first international competition, the 2003 ASEAN Para Games. At the 2008 ASEAN Para Games, Medina achieved the most number of medals among the competitors for the Philippines winning 5 gold medals. She championed the single class 8 and single class 6-10 for the individual events, won the doubles open class 6-10 with Purificacion Mingarine, and the team class 10 with Minnie de Ramos and Mingarine.

Medina held a degree in industrial and organizational psychology from the Polytechnic University of the Philippines in Manila.
Medina died on September 2, 2021, at her home at age 51.
# Rams Head Live!

Rams Head Live! was an indoor music venue, club, and bar located in Baltimore, Maryland, United States. Located in the Power Plant Live! district of downtown Baltimore, the venue was surrounded by several other bars and clubs. Rams Head Live! opened on December 15, 2004 and closed in December 2024.
The venue featured 26,000 square feet (2,400 m$^2$) of floor space with five bars and three different viewing levels of the stage.
All Time Low became the first band to sell out the venue during their short summer tour in mid-July 2008. In an interview with Pitchfork, Queens of the Stone Age frontman Josh Homme named the venue as one of his "favorite new venues," saying that "they treated us really good and it was really cool." In 2016, Consequence of Sound ranked Rams Head Live! at #91 on its list of "The 100 Greatest American Music Venues."
# Perry Weitz

Perry Weitz is an American attorney and partner at the Manhattan law firm Weitz & Luxenberg, which he co-founded in 1986. He is also a founding partner of Oak Row Equities, a Miami Florida based real estate development company.

## Background

Weitz started the law firm with an asbestos lawsuit. He sued on behalf of 36 workers who became sick after working at the Brooklyn Navy Yard. His suit got his clients $75 million. Of that $75 million, approximately one-third went to Weitz & Luxenberg. The firm now makes 60 percent of its revenue from litigation related to asbestos cases.

## Asbestos litigation

Among the countless numbers of asbestos trust funds, seven of them paid $2.4 billion in claims in 2008. Those payments amounted to $600 million in legal fees for the lawyers representing the plaintiffs. Within the asbestos litigation system, advisory committees exist to advocate for payments for plaintiffs. The committees usually oppose advocates who would preserve trust fund resources for the future, rather than pay claims at present. Weitz served on six of these committees. The interests of current and future claimants clash; current claimants want their payment at full value and quickly, while future claimants want to preserve the trust assets until they can apply for their own compensation.
In a 2002 article by The New York Times, "A Surge in Asbestos Suits, Many by Healthy Plaintiffs," a law professor at Yeshiva University, Lester Brickman, said, "Sick people with legitimate claims represent a tiny fraction of the claims being brought." In response, Weitz was quoted in the article as saying, "Juries throughout the United States have said that these people deserve compensation . . . You really have to have faith in the jury system."

## Politics

Weitz is a director of the New York State Trial Lawyers Association. The association is "a heavy lobbying presence in Albany," according to The New York Times.
In 2010, Kathleen Rice, the Nassau County district attorney, ran for New York state attorney general. In 2009, Rice hired Weitz's son, Justin Weitz, as an assistant district attorney. In the 2010 election cycle, Weitz and his partner, along with three other attorneys at Weitz & Luxenberg, contributed a total of $236,698 to Rice's campaign.

# Mount Wolseley

Mount Wolseley is a 2,558-metre-elevation (8,392-foot) mountain in the Canterbury Region of New Zealand.

## Description

Mount Wolseley is situated less than one kilometre east of the crest of the Southern Alps in Aoraki / Mount Cook National Park. It is located 185 kilometres (115 mi) west of the city of Christchurch in the Mackenzie District of the Canterbury Region in the South Island. Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains into headwaters of the Godley River. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 1,460 metres (4,790 feet) in two kilometres. The first ascent of the summit was made in December 1920 by Will Kennedy and Jack Lippe. The nearest higher peak is Mount Loughnan, three kilometres to the west.

## Climbing

Climbing routes on Mount Wolseley:
* Neish Glacier – Will Kennedy, Jack Lippe – (1920)
* South Ridge – B.R. Young, I.R. Wood, H. Elder, J. Porter – (1951)
* East Ridge – Richard Tornquist, Noel Strack – (1953)

## Climate

Based on the Köppen climate classification, Mount Wolseley is located in a marine west coast (Cfb) climate zone, with a tundra climate at the summit. Prevailing westerly winds blow moist air from the Tasman Sea onto the mountains, where the air is forced upward by the mountains (orographic lift), causing moisture to drop in the form of rain or snow. This climate supports the Maud and Ruth glaciers on this mountain's slopes. The months of December through February offer the most favourable weather for viewing or climbing this peak.
# Charles Alain, Prince of Guéméné

Charles Alain de Rohan (Charles Alain Gabriel; 18 January 1764 – 24 April 1836) was a French nobleman and Prince of Guéméné. He died without any surviving descendants as his daughter died without children.

## Biography

Born on 18 January 1764 at the Palace of Versailles, he was baptised the same day. He was the son of Henri Louis de Rohan and his distant cousin Victoire de Rohan. His mother was governess to the children of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI; she was succeeded by Madame de Polignac. After his parents became disgraced with his fathers debts, the family moved from Versailles and had to sell their famous townhouse, the Parisian Hôtel de Rohan-Guémené.
He married Louise Aglaé de Conflans d'Armentieres at the Église Saint-Sulpice in Paris on 29 May 1781 and had one daughter, Berthe, who would later marry her uncle the Duke of Bouillon. Berthe would have no children and as such, Charles Alain has no known descendants.
His cousins included the Prince of Condé, son of Charlotte de Rohan, sister of Victoire; the Abbess of Remiremont was also his cousin.
He emigrated from France in 1791 and resided in Austria where he joined the army and was promoted to Field Marshal. He entered the service of Leopold II, Holy Roman Emperor.
At the death of his distant cousin Jacques Léopold de La Tour d'Auvergne the Duke of Bouillon in 1802, Charles Alain was the nearest relative in the family since his grandmother Marie Louise de La Tour d'Auvergne was Jacques Léopold's aunt.
He purchased the Sychrov Castle in Bohemia (today in the Czech Republic) where he died in 1836. The castle was the home of the Rohan family until 1945.

## Issue

* Berthe de Rohan (4 May 1782 – 22 February 1841) married her uncle Louis Victor Meriadec de Rohan-Guéméné and had no issue.

# 780 N. Highland Ave.

780 North Highland Avenue is a historic building in the Virginia-Highland neighborhood of Atlanta, Georgia. It is a contributing property to the Virginia-Highland Historic District, registered on the National Register of Historic Places. The NRHP designation, however, affords no prevention of either demolishing the building or altering its exterior—only designation as a local historic district does so.
* 780 N. Highland Ave. in 2011 before 2012 renovation
* 780 N. Highland Ave. during its 2012 renovation

## History

In June 1999, developer Doug Landau had bought the building, then known as "The Alley", and had plans to demolish it make a parking structure. The Virginia-Highland Civic Association fought against those plans, which eventually failed.
A Wolf Camera store on the site closed in 2007. In April 2012 Glamour Paws, a pet boutique, opened in the space after a controversial renovation lasting several months.

## Controversy

In February 2012 controversy surfaced over the renovation of the building, in which the historic details of the building were covered up under a layer of wood, over which a new façade was to be constructed. Though the historic façade was not legally protected, dozens of local residents expressed dismay at its being covered up, while a smaller group defended the merchants' right to design their storefront as they deemed best.

## Filming on location

In April 2012 portions of the pilot for the B.E.T. network's Being Mary Jane were filmed here.
Portions of the Bravo television series Married to Medicine were filmed here in 2013.
