# WHGM

WHGM (1330 AM) is a commercial radio station in Havre De Grace, Maryland. It is owned by Steve Clendenin, through licensee Maryland Media One, LLC, and it airs an oldies - classic hits radio format. In middays, it carries the syndicated Intelligence for Your Life with John Tesh. Studios are in the Arts & Entertainment District of Havre De Grace at 331 North Union Avenue.
By day, WHGM is powered at 5,000 watts, using a non-directional antenna. But to protect other stations on 1330 AM from interference, it reduces power to 500 watts at night and uses a directional antenna. Programming is also heard on three FM translators: W263CQ at 100.5 MHz in Chesapeake City; W284BE at 104.7 MHz in Havre de Grace and W298CG at 107.5 MHz in Bel Air.

## History

The station began broadcasting on May 15, 1948; 76 years ago (May 15, 1948). Its original call sign was WASA. It was owned by Jason & Virginia Pate of Havre de Grace. After World War II, Jason Pate applied for the first radio license in Havre de Grace. WASA added an FM station, 103.7 WHDG, in 1960, now WXCY-FM. The FM station was later sold to the Delmarva Broadcasting Company.
Long-time Baltimore television personality Royal Parker began his broadcasting career on WASA in the 1940s, hosting a music program called the Royal Record Review. In 2000, the station's call letters were changed to WJSS. In 2014, they switched to WHGM.
On June 6, 2016, WHGM changed its format to adult hits, branded as "Smash Hits WHGM".
In late 2018 or early 2019, WHGM rebranded as "WHGM Gold," switching to an Oldies - Classic Hits format. It plays the top songs from the 1960s, '70s and '80s.
In 2024, the station briefly signed off the air as it planned on transferring the station to Sweet Tea Radio (an apparent subsidiary of Andrulonis Media, whose co-owner Christy Andrulonis goes by the on-air name "Sweet Tea" and which has traded stations back and forth with Maryland Media One several times), a company that plans on relocating the station.

In 2009, the translator was moved to WHA's license.

# Lundy, California

Lundy (formerly Mill Creek) is a defunct community in Mono County, California, United States, located on Mill Creek in Lundy Canyon near the west end of Lundy Lake. It is situated at an elevation of 7858 feet (2395 m). It was named after O.J. Lundy who operated a sawmill near Lundy Lake. The sawmill was a major timber producer for the nearby town of Bodie, California. Lundy also had a mining camp that was established in 1879. The Lundy post office ran from 1880 to 1914.
Like many gold rush camps, Lundy is now defunct. The building of a dam raised Lundy Lake, and part of the site where the community once stood is now submerged.
Lundy is now a popular fishing resort. Electricity is provided via a small generator and facilities are rather primitive. Besides the main lake there are also three lakes accessible only by hiking and several beaver ponds.
When driving into Lundy canyon one can see the last grave of what was once a large cemetery. One section of Lundy Lake is called Stagecoach Corner as a stagecoach missed the sharp turn and ended up plummeting into the lake. Many years ago, scuba divers confirmed this story by finding the stagecoach, preserved by the icy cold waters of the lake, lying on its side.
# Buchan

Buchan /ˈbʌxən/ is a coastal district in the north-east of Scotland, bounded by the Ythan and Deveron rivers. It was one of the original provinces of the Kingdom of Alba. It is now one of the six committee areas of Aberdeenshire.

## Etymology

The genesis of the name Buchan is shrouded in uncertainty, but may be of Pictish origin. The name may involve an equivalent of Welsh buwch meaning "a cow". American academic Thomas Clancy has noted cautiously the similarity between the territory names Buchan and Marr to those of the Welsh commotes Cantref Bychan and Cantref Mawr, meaning "small commote" and "large commote", respectively.

## History

The first documentary record of Buchan is a reference in the Chronicle of the Kings of Alba to the death of King Indulf at the hands of Vikings in Buchan in 962, a death separately recorded in a 12th-century king list as taking place at Cullen. Cullen is to the west of the River Deveron, in an area where the Earls of Buchan held land as late as the 13th century, suggesting that Buchan's boundaries at this time extended as far west as the River Spey.
In Pictish times, Buchan was located within the kingdom of Cé. There is considerable ancient history in this geographic area, especially slightly north-west of Cruden Bay, where the Catto Long Barrow and numerous tumuli are found.
At one time, the district of Buchan comprised all the land between the Don and Deveron, but now the land between the Don and the Ythan is known as Formartine, so Buchan has taken on a restricted sense.

## Features

The Buchan area has a population of 39,160 (2001 census) and an area of 547 km$^2$ (211 sq mi). It contains the town of Peterhead and is adjacent to the committee and administrative areas of Banff and Buchan and Formartine.
Peterhead is the largest town in Buchan and Aberdeenshire; the principal whitefish-landing port in Europe; and a major oil industry service centre. Equally important is the nearby gas terminal at St Fergus. Remote Radar Head Buchan, an RAF air-defence radar unit, is located near Peterhead.
Attempts are being made to counter the negative effects of several recent key company closures and economic threats. Inland, the area is dependent upon agriculture, and many villages have seen a decline in population and services. Issues affecting Banff and Buchan also apply here, as does the future of the oil and gas industry. Part of Buchan benefits from EU aid coverage. Opportunities exist through the Buchan Local Action Plan to safeguard and enhance the economic future of Peterhead and Buchan.
The Formartine and Buchan Way runs through Buchan.

# Manuel Fernández Caballero

Manuel Fernández Caballero (Murcia, 14 March 1835 – Madrid, 26 February 1906) was a Spanish composer, notably of zarzuelas.
His works were seminal works in the young Género chico form of zarzuela. The success of Los bandos de villafrita (1884) consolidated his career. Its sequel was Las grandes figuras (1885). The sainete El dúo de La Africana and its celebrated jota No cantes más La Africana remain as classic examples of a zarzuela duet.

## Works

He also composed religious works and salon songs. He was one of the most successful Spanish composers of the nineteenth century, and enjoyed many successful premieres, from his earlier pieces Entre el alcalde y el rey, Los bandos de Villa-Frita and El lucero del alba, composed for the Cádiz singer Antonia Garcia de Videgain, to the most successful of all his works, Gigantes y cabezudos (1898).

# Antonio Aranda

Antonio Aranda Mata (13 November 1888 – 8 February 1979) was a military officer who fought on the Nationalist faction in the Spanish Civil War.

## Biography

Antonio Aranda Mata was born in Leganés on 13 November 1888. During the Morocco wars Aranda earned an outstanding record as an engineer and geographer. He participated in the quelling of the 1934 Asturian revolt and rose to the rank of colonel. At the beginning of the Spanish Civil War, in 1936, he was in command of the Oviedo garrison, which joined the coup d'etat against the Republic and quickly took control of the city for the Rebel faction. Aranda then successfully defended Oviedo from "miners' militias". For his efforts he was awarded the Cross of San Fernando and promoted to the rank of General. Aranda participated in several further engagements during the war including the Battle of Teruel and the Battle of the Ebro. He served as captain general of the military region of Valencia.
Immediately following the war Aranda was appointed as the head of the Royal Geographical Society. In 1941 he participated in several clandestine actions in favor of the monarchy that resulted in irritating the government of Francisco Franco. He was one of a group of pro-British monarchist generals to secretly receive money from British Intelligence MI-6. He was briefly imprisoned in 1947 for two months. In 1949, Aranda, then a division general, was retired from duty by Franco. Reasons argued by commentators for the cessation include the liberal ideology reportedly espoused by Aranda, his protracted lobbying and conspirations in favour of the installment of a constitutional monarchy (headed by Juan of Bourbon), or, rather anecdotically, an alleged link to freemasonry.
According to the Francisco Franco Salgado-Araújo [es], the latter's cousin Francisco Franco was convinced that Aranda was a freemason.
In 1976, after Franco's death, Juan Carlos I promoted Aranda to the rank of Lieutenant General.
He died in the Hospital del Generalísimo on 8 February 1979.
