# Patricia McGee

Patricia K. "Pat" McGee (October 12, 1934 – April 2, 2005) was a longtime New York State Assemblywoman and Senator from Franklinville, New York.

## Political career

McGee was a registered Republican for her entire political career, and was frequently cross-endorsed by the Conservative Party of New York.
Prior to her foray into politics, McGee worked as a secretary and administrative assistant at Franklinville Central School and the Olean campus of Jamestown Community College.
McGee's political career began in 1978 as she was elected to the Cattaraugus County Legislature, where she served for 10 years, and served as that county's first female majority leader.
McGee was elected in 1987 in a special election to fill the 149th Assembly District seat caused by the resignation of longtime incumbent Daniel B. Walsh of Olean. Walsh had resigned in early 1987 to accept a policy position with the Business Council of New York State. In the assembly, McGee served on many committees. In 1998, she was tapped to replace Jess Present, who had recently died, in the New York State Senate. Moving to the Republican-dominated Senate led to McGee earning the title of chairperson on the Agriculture Committee, the Commission on Rural Resources and the Committee on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse, as well as serving prominently on numerous other committees. She was often seen as a conservative maverick; she was one of only seven Senate votes who opposed an increase in the state's minimum wage, on the principle that it would put her Southern Tier district at a competitive disadvantage with neighboring counties in Pennsylvania.
McGee was instrumental in helping her longtime associate in the State Senate, Randy Kuhl, get elected to Congress in 2004. Kuhl had served as state senator in a neighboring district to McGee's.
In addition to her legislative work, McGee was also a frequent columnist. Her columns, more than simply press releases, were published in the Cattaraugus County Chronicle and later on her own Web site.

## Death and legacy

On April 2, 2005, McGee died at Kenmore Mercy Hospital in Kenmore, New York due to pulmonary fibrosis.
To this day, McGee is seen in a high regard as a New York State politician, and her status in Cattaraugus County borders on legendary. The Pat McGee Trail, the cornerstone of Cattaraugus County's trail system built on 12 miles of abandoned railbed from Cattaraugus, New York to Salamanca, New York, bears her name.
McGee was succeeded in the State Senate by Catharine Young.
# Reflections of a Summer Day

Reflections of a Summer Day is an outdoor 1974 painted steel sculpture by Duane Loppnow, installed near the entrance to the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art on the University of Oregon campus in Eugene, Oregon, in the United States. The sculpture was given to the University of Oregon by the sculptor, a graduate of the university.
The abstract (geometric) sculpture measures approximately 6.5 feet (2.0 m) x 4 feet (1.2 m) x 4 feet (1.2 m) and rests on a base that measures approximately 1.5 feet (0.46 m) x 1 foot (0.30 m) x 2 feet (0.61 m). Its condition was deemed "treatment needed" when the Smithsonian Institution surveyed the work as part of its "Save Outdoor Sculpture!" program in 1994.
# Niger Delta Liberation Front

The Niger Delta Liberation Front (NDLF) is a militant group in Nigeria's Niger Delta. The group's former leader John Togo claims that their main goal is to secede from, and gain independence from Nigeria. The group is best known for their notorious leader John Togo who is known throughout Nigeria as a fierce soldier. Although Togo is the NDLF's most notorious member he was killed on July 19, 2011, by a Nigerian air strike near Warri in Delta State. The group is closely linked to the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta and fight side by side against the Nigerian Army. In early 2013 war erupted within the NDLF after 2 different commanders claimed to be leader. It ended after one was killed in March 2013.

## Background

In 1998 the Ijaw Youth Council was formed and many militants were brought up in the Ijaw Youth Council. In 1999 the Odi Massacre occurred in Bayelsa State which was the spark that erupted into violence. In 2004 the Joint Revolutionary Council was formed and recruited members to rock the Nigerian petroleum industry to its core. In 2005 high-ranking member John Togo formed a splinter group after the Joint Revolutionary Council did not deliver much damage. Togo recruited about 4,000 members and went into the Niger Delta to begin attacks.

## John Togo

John Togo was one of the most notorious warlords in the Niger Delta region. His most recognizable feature was a scar on his face he received from being shot by a Nigerian soldier. Togo was well known for his skill in bomb making and coordinated attacks against oil installations. In 2009 Togo accepted government amnesty, but returned to fighting a month later after the Nigerian government failed to live up to its promises. By 2010 Togo was the most wanted man in Nigeria. In October 2010 the Nigerian Air Force bombed his camp, but Togo and his men were able to slip into swamps of the Delta. In June 2011 Togo and the NDLF got into a firefight with Nigerian Army. Togo was shot in the arm and his men took him to a hospital in Warri. After bullet was removed from his arm, they fled back into the forest. Less than an hour later Nigerian soldiers raided the hospital, being minutes late to catch him. On July 19, 2011, the Nigerian Air Force bombed Togo's camp with his men in Delta State, whilst they were asleep. Togo and 20 other militants were killed in the attack. The Nigerian Army recovered his body and it was given to his family.

## After Togo

With the death of Togo the NDLF seemed weak and many members joined the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta. Although many members left, around 2,500 remained in the NDLF. For the next 2 years they attacked oil installations on and off. In February 2013 civil war erupted within the group when 2 different commanders claimed to be leaders. After a month of fighting, one was killed and the other took full control of the group.

# Everlasting Nothing

"Everlasting Nothing" is a song by the American musician Beck. It was released on November 14, 2019, as the fourth single from his fourteenth studio album Hyperspace. Beck and Pharrell Williams wrote and produced "Everlasting Nothing", and played all the instruments on it. Beck sings, plays guitar and piano, while Williams plays drums and keyboard. It also features a choir.
Beck had already performed "Everlasting Nothing" twice in 2013, both at shows in California.

## Critical reception

Claire Shaffer of Rolling Stone wrote that the song "combines Beck's guitar-laden folk-pop with some quirky Pharrell additions: sci-fi synthesizers, calming bongos and staccato drum machines give it a distinctively space-age vibe". Stereogum wrote that the song "could've easily been a pretty good Morning Phase-type song, but it keeps twisting and adding on more interesting musical choices, and it's all the better for it".

# Riverside Village Historic District

The Riverside Village Historic District encompasses a village community near Massachusetts Route 2 in Gill, Massachusetts. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.

## Description and history

Colonial settlement of what is now the town of Gill began in the mid-18th century, and the town was incorporated in 1794. Riverside, located on the northern bank of the Connecticut River, now opposite the 19th-century industrial village of Turners Falls, was its first point of settlement. The oldest surviving building in Gill is the Howland Tavern, built about 1760 and now set on the south side of the French King Highway (Massachusetts Route 2). In the early 19th century sawmills were erected along the river, which produced lumber used in the development of Gill and neighboring communities. When Turners Falls was developed later in the 19th century, Riverside was economically eclipsed, and became a place for workers there to live. The Turners Falls Lumber Company, located in Riverside, burned down in 1903, and its site was never redeveloped.
The historic district is roughly bounded on the north by the French King Highway and the south by the river. A network of mainly residential streets is clustered southwest of the highway and the Gill–Montague Bridge, built in 1937-38 as a replacement for an older failing suspension bridge. Most of the buildings in the district are modest frame houses. They are built in a diversity of styles, representing the shifts in fortunes of the community and its industries. Notable non-residential buildings include a c. 1920 gas station, a 1926 schoolhouse, and a vegetable stand built in the 1940s to serve traffic passing on the highway.

# Rochester Commercial and Industrial District

The Rochester Commercial and Industrial District encompasses the civic, commercial, and industrial heart of Rochester, New Hampshire. Oriented around the city's Central Square, the 6-acre (2.4 ha) district includes the city's major civic buildings, most of which are Classical Revival structures from the early 20th century, a number of commercial buildings dating as far back as the square's formation in the 1820s, and several late 19th-century industrial facilities. The district extends primarily along Main Street, from Bridge and Union Streets to Winter and Academy Streets, and includes properties extending along Wakefield and Hanson Streets, as well as other adjacent streets. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.

## Description and history

Rochester was chartered as a town in 1722, but substantive colonial settlement did not take place until conflicts with Native Americans subsided in the mid-18th century. The town was a center for lumber trade, and became a transportation hub, with the intersection of two stagecoach routes at what is now Central Square. In the 19th century it developed as a center of the textile and shoe industries, contributing to the state's nationwide prominence in the latter industry at the end of the century. Between 1797 and 1840 it was the county seat of Strafford County. The introduction of the railroad in 1849 continued the city's importance in transportation.
The city's downtown is largely a product of late 19th and early 20th-century development, although there are surviving elements representative of its earlier importance. A few residences and commercial buildings dating to the 1820s are found on North Main Street, northwest of Central Square, interspersed with later 19th-century and modern infill. The Central Square area, the junction of North Main, South Main, and Wakefield Streets, is ringed with late 19th and early 20th-century commercial buildings, mostly of brick construction. Civic and religious buildings are also found along Main Street, including a courthouse, city hall, and churches. The city's 19th-century industrial heritage is remembered in the four-story factory building of E.W. Wallace, its major shoe manufacturer, at 100 South Main Street.
