# The Town (1945 film)

The Town is a short propaganda film produced by the Office of War Information in 1943. The documentary, depicting the American Midwestern city of Madison, Indiana was filmed by Josef von Sternberg in 1943 and released in 1945.

## Synopsis

The Town is a 1943 American documentary film whose subject is the Midwestern town of Madison, Indiana. Endorsed by the United States Office of War Information (OWI), which oversaw propaganda during World War II, the 11-minute film presents Madison “as the model American town where citizens embodied American ideals and values.” Filmed by the acclaimed Hollywood director Josef von Sternberg, the camera showcases the people of Madison – many of whom were European immigrants – in their “public libraries, corner drugstores, schoolhouses and public swimming pools.”
The Town was created as part of The American Scene series and “shown overseas to remind troops what they were fighting to preserve and to demonstrate American cultural values to foreigners. It was translated into 32 languages.”
The Academy Film Archive preserved The Town in 2012. The film is part of the Academy War Film Collection, one of the largest collections of World War II era short films held outside government archives.

## Theme

Sternberg's portrait of Madison, Indiana in the sun-drenched summer of 1943 serves to artistically unite the Old World influences brought by European immigrants with the “progressive social and political ideas of the New World.”
Sternberg opens the documentary show-casing “an Italian campanile, a palladian portico, a Renaissance fountain” as if these were features from a European travelogue. The audience is disabused of that impression when a narrator identifies the structures as the functional and egalitarian architecture of a small Mid-western community: “the fountain belongs to the local swimming pool, a courthouse, the portico to a courthouse and the campanile is the Madison Fire Brigade bell-tower.”
The citizenry of Madison, some identifiable ethnically as Austrian, Greek, Swedish and French are all active in work and social life. Employing tracking and dissolve shots, Sternberg's camera explores the social institutions in town and country, urban and rural, as well as quiet and secure suburban streets and homes.
Commenting on Sternberg's approach to his wartime assignment, film critic John Baxter writes:
   ”The Town is a work of a happy man, reacting without bitterness to a project considerably beneath his own abilities.”

His uncle Carlos Fernando Chardón (1907-1981), served as the Puerto Rico Adjutant General and Secretary of State of Puerto Rico from 1969 to 1973.
Chardón López did graduate work at Syracuse University in New York state to earn his doctorate. During that time, Chardón worked at the Division of Human Rights of the State of New York as a field representative.

## Political career

After returning to Puerto Rico, Chardón López was appointed as an aide to Governor Luis A. Ferré. A lifelong Republican, Chardón has served as Secretary of Puerto Rico's Republican Party and as a member of the Republican National Committee.
In the 1970s, Chardón López was first appointed as Secretary of Education of the commonwealth, under Governor Carlos Romero Barceló.

# Choi–Williams distribution function

Choi–Williams distribution function is one of the members of Cohen's class distribution function. It was first proposed by Hyung-Ill Choi and William J. Williams in 1989. This distribution function adopts exponential kernel to suppress the cross-term. However, the kernel gain does not decrease along the $\eta ,\tau$ axes in the ambiguity domain. Consequently, the kernel function of Choi–Williams distribution function can only filter out the cross-terms that result from the components that differ in both time and frequency center.

## Mathematical definition

The definition of the cone-shape distribution function is shown as follows:
    $C_{x}(t,f)=\int _{-\infty }^{\infty }\int _{-\infty }^{\infty }A_{x}(\eta ,\tau )\Phi (\eta ,\tau )\exp(j2\pi (\eta t-\tau f))\,d\eta \,d\tau ,$
where
    $A_{x}(\eta ,\tau )=\int _{-\infty }^{\infty }x(t+\tau /2)x^{*}(t-\tau /2)e^{-j2\pi t\eta }\,dt,$
and the kernel function is:
    $\Phi \left(\eta ,\tau \right)=\exp \left[-\alpha \left(\eta \tau \right)^{2}\right].$

# Harold Hess

William Harold Hess (August 18, 1895 – November 9, 1982) was an American college football and basketball coach. He served as the head coach at Loyola Marymount University from 1923 to 1927.

## Early life

A native of Belle Vernon, Pennsylvania near Pittsburgh, Hess attended Belle Vernon High School. Hess went on to college at Pennsylvania State University, where he played on the football team in 1916 and from 1919 to 1920. He played as a fullback and was considered a "star punter" by The Pittsburgh Press. In 1919, during preparation for the rivalry game against Pittsburgh, team captain Bob Higgins had noticed that the Panthers tended to rush ten players when the opposing team elected to punt. He devised a trick play using Hess, the team's punter. Early in the game, Penn State lined up to punt, and when Pittsburgh rushed ten men, Hess lobbed a 25-yard pass to Higgins, who was running free, and he took the ball 92 yards for a touchdown. The play shifted momentum decisively in Penn State's favor, and the Nittany Lions went on to win, 20–0.
For his senior campaign during the 1920 season, Hess was moved from fullback to guard, and his teammates elected him as captain. At Penn State, Hess was a member of Kappa Sigma fraternity and studied agriculture.

## Coaching career

In 1922, Hess served as the freshman team coach for USC, whose varsity faced Penn State in that year's Rose Bowl. Because of his knowledge of the opponent, he helped prepare USC for the bowl game, which they won, 14–3.
In 1923, Hess was considered a candidate for the Long Beach State head coaching position. That year, he took over as head coach at Loyola Marymount in Los Angeles, California. There, he introduced the system used at Penn State. In January 1928, he resigned from Loyola, where he compiled a 23–12–4 record.

# First-order fluid

A first-order fluid is another name for a power-law fluid with exponential dependence of viscosity on temperature.
    $\mu _{\mathrm {eff} }({\dot {\gamma }},T)=\mu _{0}{\dot {\gamma }}^{n-1}\exp(-bT)$
where γ̇ is the shear rate, T is temperature and μ$_0$, n and b are coefficients.
The model can be re-written as
    $\mu _{\mathrm {eff} }({\dot {\gamma }},T)=\exp \left(A_{0}+A_{1}\ln {\dot {\gamma }}+A_{2}T\right)$

# Kate Mullany House

The Kate Mullany House was the home of Kate Mullany (1845–1906), an early female labor leader who started the all-women Collar Laundry Union in Troy, New York in February 1864. It was one of the first women's unions that lasted longer than the resolution of a specific issue. It is located at 350 8th Street in Troy, just off NY 7 one empty lot east of the Collar City Bridge.
The house was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1998. It is now a National Historic Site. The site also includes Mullany's grave. The New York State Senate honored the house and its most famous resident for Women's History Month in March 2007. The house is also on the New York Women's Heritage Trail.

## Designation as a National Historic Site

Then First Lady Hillary Clinton toured the house in 2000, and named it as a "treasure". Senator Daniel P. Moynihan had introduced a bill to designate the home as a National Historic Site, but the bill languished in the United States Senate.
Senator Clinton took up the bill in January 2001 when Moynhian retired, and she advocated for the home. There were hearings on the bill, and the Congressional Budget Office undertook an official budget analysis for the United States Congress. The bill was co-sponsored by Senator Clinton and Representative Mike McNulty, supported by organized labor, and was passed into law. It is an affiliated area of the National Park Service; it remains privately owned and operated but the NPS provides technical support.
On November 10, 2020, a car crashed through the building's back wall. Though no one was injured, the National Park Service reported that the "damage to the back wall was so extensive that engineers worried the second floor might collapse". Before the incident, the site was planned to open in late 2020.
The site was officially opened to the public on June 10, 2023, with a public celebration hosted by Paul Cole, executive director of the American Labor Studies Center who helped organize fundraising for the site.

# Farnum House

The Farnum House is a historic house on Litchfield Road in Norfolk, Connecticut. Built in 1908 to a design by Alfredo S.G. Taylor, it is a distinctive local example of a Tudor Revival English country house. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982, for its association with the architect.

## Description and history

The Farnum House is located south of the village center of Norfolk, on the west side of Litchfield Road (Connecticut Route 272). It is set on a 2-acre (0.81 ha) lot that slopes down from the road, with a semicircular front drive providing access. A fringe of mature plantings lines the street between the two drive entrances. The house is a 1+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, its exterior finished in stucco. Its main roof ridge is oriented parallel to the road, but its facade is dominated by large front-facing cross-gabled sections at either end, with an eyebrow dormer in between. The roof below the eyebrow extends over a broad porte-cochere, whose ends extend in front of the flanking gables. The interior finishes are also reflective of the Tudor Revival, and some of its original interior furnishings were also designed by the architect Alfredo S.G. Taylor.
The house was built in 1908 to a design by Taylor, a prominent New York City architect who summered in Norfolk. It is one of three stucco houses designed by Taylor in the years 1906-08 that are set on the west side of Litchfield Road. This house in particular bears a strong resemblance to Moor Crag, a house near Bowness-on-Windermere in Cumbria, England designed in 1898 by the English architect Charles Voysey, but presents its own distinctive interpretation of an English country house of the period.
# False Alarms (film)

False Alarms is a 1936 short subject directed by Del Lord starring American slapstick comedy team The Three Stooges (Moe Howard, Larry Fine and Curly Howard). It is the 17th entry in the series released by Columbia Pictures starring the comedians, who released 190 shorts for the studio between 1934 and 1959.

## Plot

The Stooges are firefighters whose penchant for off-duty pursuits frequently lands them in trouble. Threatened with dismissal by their superior, Captain Ashe, due to repeated negligence, the trio faces heightened scrutiny. Amidst their assigned task of cleaning fire hoses, a mishap ensues when Curly inadvertently damages the hoses, leading to a precarious situation that nearly costs them their employment.
Simultaneously, Curly's clandestine rendezvous with his girlfriend, Maisie, escalates when he attempts to involve Moe and Larry in the outing. However, their plans are thwarted by Moe's strict adherence to duty, resulting in a comedic struggle for freedom initiated by Larry. Desperate to escape, Curly resorts to triggering a false fire alarm, unwittingly causing chaos within the fire station.
Upon discovering Curly's ploy, Moe and Larry join the group, and a reckless escapade ensues as they race through town in Captain Ashe's newly acquired coupé. Their reckless driving culminates in a collision, trapping them and their companions in the vehicle. Amidst the chaos, a series of comedic confrontations unfold, involving Curly's love interests and a farcical physical altercation. As the chaos escalates, the damaged coupé becomes a source of further trouble, culminating in a chaotic pursuit by Captain Ashe and the fire crew. Fleeing in a Bekins van, the Stooges narrowly evade capture.
