# Polar bear jail

The Polar Bear Holding Facility, colloquially known as the Polar Bear Jail is a special building in Churchill, Manitoba, Canada where polar bears that are considered troublesome or dangerous are isolated until they can be relocated.
Before the facility was established, polar bears which were considered dangerous were shot. The jail was established in 1982. According to another source, it was created in 1983, after a person on the street was mauled by a bear. The facility is the subject of the poem "Churchill Bear Jail" by Salish Chief Victor A. Charlo.

## Keeping the animals

Initially, the facility had 20 cells, which could hold 16 single bears and four family groups. The bears could be held from two to 30 days – if a bear had been captured repeatedly, the term may have been extended. The premise is that extended captivity would create a sense of danger for the bears so that they will be reluctant to approach the town. The bears are not fed during the captivity. Since the bears' natural life cycle involves long periods of fasting, their bodies are adapted to going without food for an extended time.
Dangerous bears are tranquilized when captured and are marked with a bright paint on the neck. Closer to the winter, when the ice in the Hudson Bay has set, the bears are released. They are tranquilized again and transported by helicopter far from the town.
In 2014, the jail was extended to 28 cells. The inhabitants of Churchill still have to be careful outside, as the outskirts of the city are said to be visited by about a thousand polar bears in the summer. With the ice gone, they are unable to hunt their primary prey – seals – and, suffering from hunger, they can approach the town and threaten the inhabitants.
There are signs cautioning "Polar Bear Alert" on the shores of the Hudson Bay and Churchill River, and anyone that spots a polar bear can call a designated phone number, upon which some workers of the Department of Natural Resources will come out to catch the bear.

# Robertsonpet

Robertsonpet is a township in the city of Kolar Gold Fields in India. The township was planned and built to accommodate the increasing population of the city of Kolar Gold Fields. The town hall popularly known as King George Hall was built in Victorian style with a lawn and garden in front of it.
Robertsonpet was established in 1902 and named after Sir Donald Robertson the British Resident of the Princely state of Mysore. It is considered to be one of the first planned townships in modern-day India.

## History

In the late 19th and early 20th century, the mining industry expanded under the John Taylor and Sons Company. In its peak period, it employed 4500 employees, and the waste rocky terrain was developed into a township. The township was first established in 1901 as New Town, to house the population working in the KGF Mines. On 15 August 1903, the township was renamed as Robertsonpet. The town got its name at the insistence of the Maharaja of Mysore, who named it after Sir Donald Robertson the British Resident of Mysore. As the township grew, tradesmen such as bakers, confectioners, jewellers, pawn brokers, barbers, timber merchants, tailors, etc. migrated and set up shop in Robertsonpet.
A town hall (similar to town halls in Australia) was built in Victorian architectural style with arches, canopies and large gardens, and was named as the King George Hall. The KGF Club in Oorgaum and the King George Hall Cosmopolitan Club were established providing faculties for badminton, tennis, cards, carom, snooker, etc.

## Demographics

There is also a substantial Anglo-Indian population at KGF, descendants of the English mine supervisors. Robertsonpet is a melting pot of cultures with people of different communities: Kannada, Anglo Indian, Tamil, Telugu, Marwari, Muslims, etc., living in the township.

## Sir Donald Robertson

Sir Donald Robertson is credited with starting the hydro-electric plant at Shivanasamudra, which supplied electricity to the KGF Mines. Robertson served as the British Resident of the Mysore Darbar in the 1900s, and during his tenure drafted the Constitution of the princely state of Mysore. He worked towards providing amenities to the population of KGF, even to those who were not employed by the mines, and is largely credited for establishing the KGF mining towns. In recognition of his services, His Highness the Maharaja of Mysore Krishna Raja Wadiyar IV renamed New Town as Robertsonpet. After retirement from government services, Robertson joined the mining enterprise John Taylor and Sons Company. He died on 13 October 1930.(p. 291)

# Covington Latin School

Covington Latin School is a co-educational Catholic college-preparatory high school in Covington, Kentucky, US, offering a classical education. Since its inception in 1923, the school has operated under the Diocese of Covington; it is located next to the Cathedral Basilica of the Assumption.

## History

Covington Latin School was founded in 1923 as a boys' school by Bishop Francis Howard and modeled on the German Gymnasium. It opened in a private house with 15 students. In 1925 it moved to Mother of God School and in November 1926 to the Knights of Columbus hall, an 1877 building that had originally been a Methodist Episcopal and was renovated to house the school. The official dedication of that building took place in March 1927. In 1941 the school replaced it with a three-story purpose-built building on the same site, designed in Gothic style to harmonize with the cathedral. That year there were 170 students.
An expansion of the building that more than doubled its instructional space and included new science classroom and laboratory space, a technology center, a multi-purpose room that can serve as a theatre, and elevator access to both old and new sections was opened on December 7, 2011, the anniversary of the 1941 opening.
Beginning in the late 1930s, the school offered a college-level program called St. Thomas More College in association with Villa Madonna College, a Catholic women's college; this ended in 1945 when Villa Madonna became coeducational (in 1964 it became Thomas More College). Merger discussions with Villa Madonna Academy, a Catholic girls' school, were suggested by the diocese but were unfruitful; instead in 1992–93 Covington Latin School became coeducational on its own (as later did Villa Madonna).
Since 2013, the school has had a system of 14 houses.

## Extracurriculars

Covington Latin School is a member of the Kentucky High School Athletic Association and offers athletic teams in:
* Archery

# Canoe Brook Historic District

The Canoe Brook Historic District encompasses a small but ethnically diverse residential area west of the center of Branford, Connecticut, which exhibits more than 200 years of architectural history. It extends from Cherry Hill Road in the north to Bradley Street in the south, including portions of Main Street, Home Place, and North Harbor Street. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002. The district takes its name from Canoe Brook, a waterway now largely built over by North Main Street and other construction.

## Description and history

The Canoe Brook area was first settled in the 1680s by Daniel Swaine, an English-born colonial settler. His land passed to Nathaniel Harrison, who occupied the Swaine House (which no longer stands). Houses built in the 1720s for his sons, the Harrison House Museum and the Thomas Harrison House, are the district's oldest surviving buildings. The area became a small agrarian community, anchored by members of the Swaine and Harrison families, but also growing to include mariners who built houses along Main Street or what is now called Home Place. The area became more residential with the advent of the Industrial Revolution and the construction of the railroad which forms the district's southern boundary. Successive waves of immigrants and infill construction up to World War II gave the district its present density.
The historic district is roughly in the shape of a Z, whose principal elements are Bradley Street, Main Street, and North Main Street (although no properties on the latter are included). The district is about 52 acres (21 ha) in size, with 51 historic residences. There are a few commercial and civic structures in the district, including two schools and a fire station, as well as a modest number of non-historic buildings. Most of the residences are wood frame structures, and are in a diversity of styles, from the early colonial Harrison houses to early 20th century Tudor Revival houses on Cherry Hill Road.
