# Sean Lowe (baseball)

Jonathan Sean Lowe (born March 29, 1971) is a former pitcher in Major League Baseball who played from 1997 through 2003 for the St. Louis Cardinals, Chicago White Sox, Pittsburgh Pirates, Colorado Rockies and Kansas City Royals.
Lowe attended Mesquite High School in Mesquite, Texas, where he graduated in 1989.
Lowe was drafted by the Cardinals in the first round (15th pick) of the 1992 Major League Baseball Draft. Lowe finished his seven-year MLB career with a 23–15 record, a 4.95 ERA and 288 strikeouts. He was primarily used in middle relief during his career.
Besides, Lowe played his first professional season with their Class A (Short Season) Hamilton Redbirds in 1992, and his last with the Triple-A Omaha Royals in 2003. Lowe's unique spot in baseball immortality occurred on 16 June 2001, against the St. Louis Cardinals, when Albert Pujols recorded his first, and what may yet be his only, sacrifice bunt against Lowe.

# Víctor Saldaño

Víctor Hugo Saldaño (born October 22, 1972), aka Victor Rodriguez, is an Argentine man sentenced to death by the state of Texas. He is the sole Argentine sentenced to death in the United States.
Saldaño, from Córdoba, arrived to the United States in 1995, where he was an illegal immigrant and worked as a day laborer. He lived in New York City and later Dallas, where he was the roommate of a Mexican named Jorge Chávez.
On November 25, 1995, he and his co-defendant, Chávez, kidnapped Paul Ray King at a grocery store in Plano, Texas by using a gun to force him into a vehicle. At Lavon Lake, Saldaño killed King with five gunshots.

## Trial, sentencing, and imprisonment

He was tried in 1996 and found guilty. Psychologist Walter Quijano stated that Hispanics were more likely to commit crime and that the prison system had too many Hispanics during the portion of the trial in which his sentencing was determined. Saldaño received a death sentence while Chavez was sentenced to life imprisonment.
While on death row, Víctor Saldaño was originally held at the Ellis Unit. From 1999 to 2000, the death row for men was moved to the Polunsky Unit (formerly the Terrell Unit).
The Argentine government hired lawyers to overturn the sentencing on the grounds of Quijano's testimony. Southwestern Law School constitutional law professor Jonathan Miller stated "He is alive today because of the Argentine government."
He was retried and sentenced to death in 2004. Collin County assistant district attorney John R. Rolater, Jr. stated that Saldaño pretended to have mental illness. Miller stated that the verdict was unjust since "They locked him in the pressure cooker of death row for seven years and then told everyone, `Look how dangerous he is.'"
Saldaño has since filed two writs of habeas corpus. In 2007, "he asserts that he was denied the effective assistance of counsel [...] by trial counsels' failure to preserve certain issues raised in his direct appeal." This claim was reviewed by the Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas and dismissed. In 2008, he "presents eight allegations in which he challenges the validity of his death sentence." This claim was also reviewed by the Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas, which partially concurred with only one of Saldaño's eight allegations, and thus upheld the death sentence.
In 2013 Lidia Guerrero, Saldaño's mother, mailed Pope Francis a letter asking him to help her son avoid execution. On March 20, 2015 and August 2, 2018, Pope Francis publicly announced his opposition to capital punishment in all cases.

## Legacy

Filmmaker Raúl Villaruel made the documentary Saldaño, el sueño dorado (Saldaño, The Golden Dream), about the case.

# Better than sex cake

Better than sex cake is a cake baked using yellow cake mix, with a juicy pineapple center, covered with layers of vanilla pudding and sweetened whipped cream, and sprinkled with coconut flakes. A variant using chocolate cake mix, caramel topping, and crumbled toffee is known by similar names such as better than Robert Redford cake.
The cake's moist center is typically created by inserting a fork into the cake several times and filling the holes with a mixture containing sugar and pineapple in its juice. It is traditionally baked using a 13 by 9 by 2-inch pan and then refrigerated and eaten cold. The cake was featured by Paula Deen on her series Paula's Home Cooking.
The cake's popularity was spreading in the west coast of Florida and in Charlotte, North Carolina when it came to the attention of the 1981 St. Louis annual convention of the Newspaper Food Editors and Writers Association. It was published as a pair of dessert recipes, with the other one from Indianapolis called "next best thing to Robert Redford" and featuring layers of chopped pecans, cream cheese, chocolate pudding and whipped cream, with grated chocolate candy bar sprinkled on top.
By 1990, several versions existed. The basic recipe for the cake has been altered depending on the tastes of the person making the cake and alternates include chocolate, banana, or candy flavors. A 1998 Kansas variant used chocolate cake mix, sweetened condensed milk, caramel ice cream topping, and crumbled toffee. The less-explicit "better than Robert Redford" name came to be applied to both variants.

# Ernest Tresidder

Ernest Philip Tresidder (30 April 1875 – 9 March 1951) was an Australian politician
He was born at Bendigo to William Prideaux Tresidder and Elizabeth Jane, née White. He attended Bendigo Public School before becoming a pastry cook, owning a business at Northcote in Melbourne. Around 1900 he married Celia Johnson at Clifton Hill, with whom he had three children. The family moved to Sydney around 1913 and established Kenso Cake Company; Tresidder was later director of the Sydney Cake Company. He served on Randwick Municipal Council from 1920 to 1931, with periods as mayor from 1922 to 1924 and during 1926. He also served on Sydney City Council from 1930 to 1944. From 1927 to 1930 he was a Nationalist member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly, representing Randwick. Tresidder died in 1951 at Little Bay.
# Ernie Shepherd (politician)

Alfred Ernest Shepherd (6 January 1901 – 12 September 1958) was an Australian politician. He was an Australian Labor Party member of the Victorian Legislative Assembly for the electorates of Sunshine (1945–1955), Ascot Vale (1955–1958), and Footscray (1958). He was Minister for Education in the 1952-55 John Cain government and was leader of the Labor Party and Leader of the Opposition from 1957 until his death the following year.

## Early life and career

Shepherd was born in Bendigo, the son of Bendigo Trades Hall Council president Alfred Shepherd. He was educated at Violet Street State School, but left school at 14 to work for import firm Robert Harper & Co., continuing to study at night at the Bendigo School of Mines. He was a pattern-maker by trade, beginning as an apprentice at the Newport Railway Workshops at 17 and remaining there until his election to parliament in 1945, by which time he had risen to the role of sub-foreman. Shepherd was a City of Footscray councillor from 1943 to 1955 and mayor from 1948 to 1949. He was also founding director of the Footscray District Housing Co-operative Society in 1945 and a municipal representative on the Fairfield Infectious Diseases Hospital board from 1947 to 1956, serving as board chairman 1952-56.
Shepherd was also a keen sportsman, particularly in Australian rules football and swimming. He played football for the Footscray Football Club and North Melbourne Football Club seconds, was an umpire in the Victorian Football League second division, and was secretary of the Footscray Football Club in 1930 and the Footscray District Football League from 1933 to 1945. In swimming, he was secretary of the Footscray Swimming Club from 1918 to 1930, and a judge and registrar of the Victorian Amateur Swimming Association.
Shepherd was elected unopposed to the new seat of Sunshine at the 1945 election following his narrow victory in a hard-fought Labor preselection. When Labor won government under John Cain in 1952, he was promoted to Minister for Education, but the Cain government lost office in 1955 after only one term amidst the 1955 Labor split. His Sunshine electorate was abolished in a redistribution at the 1955 election, and he switched to the new seat of Ascot Vale.
Shepherd was promoted to deputy leader after Labor's 1955 defeat, at which his predecessor had lost his seat. When Cain died in 1957, Shepherd was elected unopposed as Labor leader and Leader of the Opposition. He shifted to the existing seat of Footscray in 1958 after the Ascot Vale seat was abolished in a redistribution.

## Death

Shepherd died in office in 1958. He had collapsed at the opening ceremony of a youth centre at West Footscray, and was rushed to nearby Footscray Hospital but was dead on arrival. He received a state funeral and was cremated.

## Legacy

Ern Shepherd Reserve in Maidstone, and the Shepherd Bridge, which carries Footscray Road over the Maribyrnong River, are both named for him.
# Athletics at the 1908 Summer Olympics – Men's standing high jump

The men's standing high jump was one of six jumping events on the athletics at the 1908 Summer Olympics programme in London. The competition was held on July 23, 1908. 23 high jumpers from eleven nations competed. NOCs could enter up to 12 athletes. The event was won by Ray Ewry of the United States, his third consecutive victory in the event. Ewry won all eight standing jump events from 1900 to 1908 as well as both events at the 1906 Intercalated Games. Konstantinos Tsiklitiras of Greece took silver, tying with American John Biller. Tsiklitiras was the first non-American to medal in the event; the United States had swept the medals in both 1900 and 1904.

## Background

This was the third appearance of the event, which was held four times from 1900 to 1912. Two-time defending champion (three-time if the 1906 Intercalated Games are counted) Ray Ewry of the United States was heavily favored.
Australasia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, Norway, and Sweden each made their debut in the event. The United States made its third appearance, the only nation to have competed in each appearance of the event to that point.

## Competition format

There were two rounds of jumping, though the results from the qualifying round carried over to the final. The top four jumpers in the qualifying round advanced to the final. Each competitor received three attempts at each height. The judges determined the initial height of the bar and any increases. "Diving" and "somersaulting" were not allowed.

## Records

These were the standing world and Olympic records (in metres) prior to the 1908 Summer Olympics.
| World record | Ray Ewry (USA) | 1.655 | Paris, France | 16 July 1900 |
| Olympic record | Ray Ewry (USA) | 1.655 | Paris, France | 16 July 1900 |

# Caramel apple

Caramel apples or toffee apples are whole apples covered in a layer of caramel. They are created by dipping or rolling apples-on-a-stick in hot caramel, sometimes then rolling them in nuts or other small savories or confections, and allowing them to cool. When these additional ingredients, such as nut toppings, are added, the caramel apple can be called a taffy apple.

## Production

For high-volume production of caramel apples, a sheet of caramel can be wrapped around the apple, followed by heating the apple to melt the caramel evenly onto it. This creates a harder caramel that is easier to transport but more difficult to eat. Caramel apple production at home usually involves melting pre-purchased caramel candies for dipping or making a homemade caramel from ingredients like corn syrup, brown sugar, butter, and vanilla. Homemade caramel generally results in a softer, creamier coating.
In recent years, it has become increasingly popular to decorate caramel apples for holidays like Halloween. Methods used to do this include applying sugar or salt to softened caramel, dipping cooled, hardened apples in white or milk chocolate, or painting designs onto finished caramel apples with white chocolate colored with food coloring.
Classically, the preferred apples for use in caramel apples are tart-tasting apples with a crisp texture such as Granny Smith.

## History

Hunter's Candy in Moscow, Idaho began selling caramel apples in 1936. Hard-coated candy apples had been around since the late 19th century, but Hunter's Candy created a new treat by coating the apples with their caramel. During World War II, these apples were shipped overseas to soldiers in Korea, Japan, and England.
In 1948, the Kastrup family founded The Affy Tapple Company in Chicago. The recipe for their caramel apples came from Edna Kastrup and is still used today for their "The Original Caramel Apple" line
In 1960, Vito Raimondi patented the first automatic caramel apple making machine, replacing much of the process that involved production by hand.

Father's Day is the thirteenth studio album by American musician Kirk Franklin. The album was released by RCA Inspiration, a division of RCA Records, alongside Fo Yo Soul Recordings.

## Background

The first single "All Things" was released in May 2023. The second single "Try Love" was released in August 2023, both singles charted in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot Gospel Songs chart. In September 2023, a 35-minute documentary called Father's Day: A Kirk Franklin Story premiered on Franklin's YouTube channel, the documentary serves as a visual accompaniment for the album which was only meant to be recording sessions and behind the scenes footage, however while filming the documentary, speculation about the real identity of Franklin's biological father had begun to circulate at his aunt's funeral to which he did not attend due to his estranged mother being there. A man by the name of Richard Hubbard who attended the funeral told a mutual friend that he once had relations with Franklin's mother, which had sparked speculation among those in attendance as to whether he could really be Franklin's father. Franklin previously believed that his father was another man, Dwight Allen (who died in 2020) after he was told by his mother. A DNA test was taken and the results came back positive that Richard Hubbard was the father. In the documentary, Franklin opens up about the challenges of growing up as an adopted child, it also shows the events of him meeting his biological father for the first time, reuniting with his estranged mother as well as reconciling with his oldest son Kerrion whom he had a complicated relationship with.

# James Morgan Walsh

James Morgan Walsh (J. M. Walsh) was an Australian novelist who was born in Geelong, Victoria in 1897 and educated at Xavier College.
He published his first novel in 1921, and encouraged by its success, became a full-time writer in 1923.
He married Louisa Mary Murphy on 1 January 1925, and later that year the couple settled in the United Kingdom. Walsh was to remain there until his death in 1952 in Western-Super-Mare, Somerset, England.
Walsh was a very prolific writer, producing around 94 novels, across a range of genres (mystery, crime, war, thriller, adventure and science fiction) under a number of pseudonyms.
In addition to his novels Walsh also wrote a number of short stories, and books for children.
From 1938 Walsh lived at Weston-super-Mare, Somerset, where he died on 29 August 1952.
# Alternanthera helleri

Alternanthera helleri is a species of plant in the family Amaranthaceae. It is endemic to the Galápagos Islands of Ecuador. It is believed to be green in color anywhere from 90 to 100% of the year depending on elevation. The leaves are considered to be highly toxic to humans and should not be consumed under any circumstances.
Alternanthera helleri is a fall-blooming species, it can be planted at any time of year, but the best time is early/middle fall, as this provides it with an optimum blooming window when it will be in season. It is very rare to find growing in the wild, and recent national park's and forest's efforts to remove hazardous plants such as this one have drastically reduced the numbers in the wild. It is still grown, however, in laboratory settings, where scientists try to analyze just exactly what makes it so toxic to humans. It is theorized that the plant produces a powerful hemotoxin, perhaps similar to oleander in nature.
