# Bernard Wilson (singer)

Bernard Wilson (July 12, 1946 – December 26, 2010) was a second tenor and baritone R&B, funk and soul music vocalist, who was a member of Harold Melvin & the Blue Notes, and thus helped to define the “Sound of Philadelphia” in the 1970s.

## Early career

Wilson was a North Philadelphia native who grew up in the Strawberry Mansion neighborhood. His parents died while Wilson was still young, and thereafter, he was raised by his grandmother. He attended Bok Technical High School, but left home at the age of 16 to seek fame and fortune as an entertainer. In 1970, Wilson joined the evolving line-up of Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes, which featured Harold Melvin—another native of Philadelphia. With the addition of Teddy Pendergrass to the group and the release of their first record, the Blue Notes achieved great success. Their self-titled LP with Philadelphia International Records overseen by Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff, landed three singles on the Billboard charts. It was this early to mid-1970s lineup that had such hits as "If You Don't Know Me by Now," "The Love I Lost," "Don't Leave Me This Way," and "Bad Luck." Other chart toppers for the band such as "I Miss You" and "Wake Up Everybody, from their five self-titled platinum records, soon followed. Wilson stayed with the Blue Notes through six albums and then left the group in 1977, shortly after Teddy Pendergrass's departure, to pursue a solo career.

## Later career

Wilson had hoped to recover from his illnesses and sing gospel; however, the last time he performed was during the 1990s, at the Trump Taj Mahal in Atlantic City.

### Death

Wilson died of complications of a stroke and heart attack on December 26, 2010, at age 64.

# Interregional Primary Plan

The Interregional Primary Plan is a proposed reform to the United States primary calendar supported by Representative Sandy Levin and Senator Bill Nelson, both Democrats. The plan would break the country into six regions. From those regions, one subregion - either a single state or a group of smaller states - would vote on each primary date (e.g., all A states,) with the entire country having held its primaries after the sixth set of primaries votes. Each state would vote first once every twenty-four years, with the first set of primaries determined by lottery and cycled thereafter.
Historically, the presidential primary season started slowly, ramping up several weeks after the Iowa caucuses and the New Hampshire primary. In the 2008 Presidential primary season, with competition to increase the relevance of each state's selection process, 34 states (plus the District of Columbia), have scheduled their primary or caucus process to be held in January and February, tripling the number of states voting this early than the count in the 2000 races.

## Proposed dates

* 1st Primaries: Second Tuesday in March
* 2nd Primaries: First Tuesday in April
* 3rd Primaries: Fourth Tuesday in April
* 4th Primaries: Second Tuesday in May
* 5th Primaries: Fourth Tuesday in May
* 6th Primaries: Second Tuesday in June

## Proposed Regions

| Region | Group A | Group B | Group C | Group D | Group E | Group F |
| 1 | Maine New Hampshire Vermont | Massachusetts | Connecticut Rhode Island | Delaware New Jersey | New York | Pennsylvania |
| 2 | Maryland | West Virginia | Missouri | Indiana | Kentucky | Tennessee |
| 3 | Ohio | Illinois | Michigan | Wisconsin | Iowa | Minnesota |
| 4 | Texas | Louisiana | Arkansas Oklahoma | Colorado | Kansas Nebraska | Arizona New Mexico |
| 5 | Virginia | North Carolina | South Carolina | Florida | Georgia | Mississippi Alabama |
| 6 | California | Washington | Oregon | Idaho Nevada Utah | Montana North Dakota South Dakota Wyoming | Hawaii Alaska |

## Criticisms
### Travel time

The interregional plan would prevent any cost savings from travel or common media markets. Each primary date would be national in geographic scope. This is directly counter to the goal of many plans is to allow for entry of less-funded candidates early on.

### Varying primary size

With random assignment to groups within each region, any given primary date could be as small as 29 congressional districts, or as large as 167 (out of 435) districts (if the random draw were to pick CA, TX, NY, FL, IL, and PA together).
With this variation in size comes a variation in importance. If a medium-sized state like Maryland (8 districts) were paired up with California in a 130-district primary, the state would have little importance. If, on the other hand, it were paired up with smaller states in a 45-district primary, Maryland would suddenly be center-stage.
With some rigging, the six primaries can be set to between 70 and 79 districts each, but again whoever gets paired with California is largely ignored.
# Kevin McVey

Kevin McVey was a political activist in Scotland and former national secretary of the Scottish Socialist Party. Once a member of the Labour Party, joining the Labour Party Young Socialists in 1984, McVey was expelled from the party under Neil Kinnock's leadership for his association with the Militant tendency.
He was formerly president of the Socialist Students Society at the University of Stirling, where he protested university plans to present former defence secretary Dr John Reid with an honorary degree.
In 2009, McVey was selected as the SSP candidate for the 2009 Glasgow North East by-election, where he won 152 votes (0.7%). However, he stood down as the SSP's national secretary at the party's 2015 conference.
McVey was the lead candidate in the Central Scotland region for the left-wing alliance RISE at the 2016 Scottish Parliament election.
As of December 2018, he remains a member of the SSP executive.

# Eulimella polita

Eulimella polita is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies.

## Nomenclature

The name Eulimella polita (A. E. Verrill, 1872) [for a species from the NW Atlantic] is a secondary junior homonym of Eulimella polita de Folin, 1870 [for a species from West Africa], and thus an invalid name. In such a case, the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature requires that the younger name Eulimella polita (A.E. Verrill, 1872) be replaced by a substitute name. However, there is no substitute name available at this moment (January 2012). Until such a substitute name is established, WoRMS lists provisionally the two species as distinct, although one is designated by an invalid name.

## Description

The size of the shell varies between 2 mm and 8.4 mm. This species differs from the other species in this genus by its continuous peristome. The teleoconch contains twelve whorls that are well rounded, smooth and glossy.

## Distribution

This species occurs in the following locations:
* Cobscook Bay
* Gulf of Maine
* North West Atlantic Ocean
# Ishida Hakyō

Ishida Hakyō (石田波郷, March 18, 1913 – November 21, 1969) was a Japanese haiku poet.
Ishida Hakyō was born on March 18, 1913, in Matsuyama, Ehime Prefecture. He attended Matsyama Middle School, where numerous haiku poets and other authors had been educated, and was publishing his own haiku in local newspapers as early as fourth grade.
Ishida was profoundly influenced by Katsushika (1930), the haiku collection by Shūōshi Mizuhara. He moved to Tokyo and began contributing to Shūōshi's publication, Ashibi ("Staggerbush"), eventually becoming an editor at the magazine. He also began studying literature at Meiji University.
In 1935, at the age of 22, he published his first haiku collection, Ishida Hakyō kushū. While still contributing to Ashibi, in 1937 he became the founding editor of his own journal, Tsuru ("Crane"). Eventually, he broke with the Ashibi group and joined the Nihon Bungaku Hokokukai ("Patrotic Association for Japanese Literature").
Ishida was drafted in 1943 into the Japanese Army and served in a carrier pigeon unit in northern China. His service only lasted a few months until he contracted pleurisy and was discharged. Ishida suffered serious illness the rest of his life.
After the war was no easier for Ishida and his family, as they were forced to live in a shack in the ruins of Tokyo. He wrote a number of poems describing postwar desolation. Ishida had two major operations and was hospitalized from 1948 to 1950 and published a collection of five hundred haiku called Shakumyō ("Clinging to Life") about his experience.
Ishida is often grouped with fellow haiku poets Nakamura Kusatao and Katō Shūson as part of a humanist approach to poetry referred to as ningen tankyūha (人間探求派).
Ishida eventually published seven volumes of haiku. He was awarded the Yomiuri Prize in 1954.
Ishida Hakyō died on 21 November 1969.
# The Big Taboo

The Big Taboo is a variation on the board game Taboo. It incorporates elements from games like Pictionary, Charades, and 25 Words or Less to create a party game with "a little bit of everything". The game was published in 2008 by Winning Moves Games USA and is no longer in production.

## Gameplay

To start the game, players divide into two teams. Through describing and correctly guessing keywords, teams advance their respective pawns around a spiraling track.
Each round, one person on each team gives clues to his or her teammates, who try to guess as many correct words as they can in the time allotted. The method and rules of clue-giving change each round, depending on the space the pawn landed on. On some spaces, clues are given using the rules of the classic Taboo game. On other spaces, clues must be drawn, limited to 15 words, or acted out using "Bendy Bob", a purple plush character included with the game.
Once the round's timer runs out, the team advances its pawn a number of spaces equal to the number of words they guessed correctly that turn. The turn then passes to the other team. Play continues until one team reaches the last space on the track.
# Experimentalist approach to econometrics

The experimentalist approach to econometrics is a way of doing econometrics that, according to Angrist and Krueger (1999): … puts front and center the problem of identifying causal effects from specific events or situations. These events or situations are thought of as natural experiments that generate exogenous variations in variables that would otherwise be endogenous in the behavioral relationship of interest. An example from the economic study of education can be used to illustrate the approach. Here we might be interested in the effect of effect of an additional year of education (say X) on earnings (say Y). Those working with an experimentalist approach to econometrics would argue that such a question is problematic to answer because, and this is using their terminology, education is not randomly assigned. That is those with different education levels would tend to also have different levels of other variables. And these other variable, many of which would be unobserved (such as innate ability), also affect earnings. This renders the causal effect of extra years of schooling difficult to identify. The experimentalist approach looks for an instrumental variable that is correlated with X but uncorrelated with the unobservables.

## Critical reception

Taptapadi movie received negative reviews from critics. A Reviewer of Loksatta says "Atya, played by Neena Kulkarni, is also a bit emotional. Veena Jamkar's performance is the strength of this film". Soumitra Pote of Maharashtra Times wrote "Overall.. We should expect good movies from this director in future. In the very first film, he has taken up a very heavy and fluid subject. He has a lot to learn from this experience. Not a bad start for him". A Reviewer of Divya Marathi wrote "This is a magnificent failed attempt in Marathi. Veena Jamkar, except for the portrayal skills, there is not much in the film to hold the audience".
# Theda Marshall

Theda Marshall (April 24, 1925 – October 13, 2005) was a first basewoman who played from 1947 through 1948 in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League. Listed at 5 ft 7 in (1.70 m), 133 lb., she batted and threw right-handed.
Born in Canton, South Dakota, Theda Marshall was one of seven siblings. She started to play softball in school at age 12, and joined one of the two girls' softball teams in her town when she was 15. Then, in 1947 she was invited to attend the AAGPBL spring training held in Havana, Cuba, and after making the team she was assigned to the South Bend Blue Sox.
Marshall struggled at the plate in 1947, going 51-for-362 for a .141 average while striking out 79 times to set an all-time single-season record. In five postseason games, she went 3-for-18 for a .167 average (including a double) against the Grand Rapids Chicks, eventually the Champion Team in the final round.
Marshall opened 1948 with South Bend and was traded to the Chicago Colleens in the midseason, compiling a .140 mark in 125 games. When a softball team in Arizona offered her a more lucrative contract in 1949, Marshall jumped at the first chance she had to leave the league.
After her playing days ended, Marshall went to work as a computer technician in a government office. She later took a job at the Air Force and Finance Center in Denver, Colorado for 30 years, retiring in 1992.
Marshall was credited as a fine first basewoman and as a great basketball player. In 1992, she had to have her right rotator cuff removed from injuries during her sporting life. After that she had only 50 percent use of her right arm and became left-handed.
Theda Marshall is part of Women in Baseball, a permanent display at the Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum at Cooperstown, New York, which was unveiled in 1988 to honor the entire All-American Girls Professional Baseball League rather than individual baseball personalities. She was a longtime resident of Lakewood, Colorado, where she died at the age of 80.

# Probus (consul 502)

Flavius Probus (Greek: Πρόβος; fl. 502–542) was a politician of the Eastern Roman Empire and relative of the Emperor Anastasius I.

## Biography

Probus was the nephew of Eastern Roman Emperor Anastasius I and a cousin of the brothers Hypatius and Pompeius; he was probably the son of Paulus (consul in 496) and his wife Magna. According to some recent prosopographical studies, he might have married a daughter (b. ca 480) of Sabinianus (ca 460 - after 505), consul in 505, and had Flavius Anastasius Paulus Probus Sabinianus Pompeius (ca 500 - after 517), consul in 517.
He was a Monophysite and a friend of the monk Severus (who later became Patriarch of Antioch), whom Probus introduced to Anastasius when the former went to Constantinople, around 508.
In 502 he was appointed consul by the East court. In 519, during the investigation around Peter of Apamea, he was cheered along with Hypatius.
In 526 (when he had been probably appointed to the high office of magister militum, surely already a patricius) Probus was sent by the Emperor Justin I as the ambassador to the Huns; the emperor gave him money to hire Hunnic mercenaries to defend the Iberian region from the Persians, but Probus gave the money, with the consent of Justin, to the missionaries who worked among the Huns.
In 528 he was accused of slandering Emperor Justinian I; brought to trial before the consistory, the Emperor tore up the documentation and forgave Probus.
In January 532, Justinian faced a dangerous uprising, known to history as the Nika revolt. The rebels needed a candidate to the throne in opposition to Justinian, and Probus believed that, as a nephew of Anastasius, the people might choose him or one of his cousins, and for this reason he secretly withdrew from Constantinople. The rebels went to his house, near the port of Julian, and having not found him there, burned it; they then acclaimed Hypatius emperor. After quashing the revolt, Justinian executed Hypatius and banished Probus, confiscating their properties, but the following year he changed his mind and recalled Probus, restoring what was taken away.
Probus was still alive in 542, when he leased one of his houses to John of Ephesus.
# Deer Lodge Curling Club

The Deer Lodge Curling Club located in Winnipeg, Manitoba, is a six-sheet curling club located in the west part of the city. The club was established in 1919 and moved to the current location in the 1950s. In 2023, the Thistle Curling Club announced that they would be selling their location and merging their club with Deer Lodge Curling Club. The two clubs would retain their history and identity but continue to operate out of the same facility beginning in the fall of 2023. Barry Fry curled out of Deer Lodge Curling Club when he won the 1979 Macdonald Brier, going on to win bronze at the 1979 World Championships.
