# Larry Chance

Lawrence Figueiredo (October 19, 1940 – September 5, 2023), better known as Larry Chance, was an American musician and the lead singer of the 1960s doo-wop group Larry Chance and the Earls, originally known as The Earls.
Larry Chance was born in The Bronx, New York, and raised in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Moving back to New York, he originally formed his group as The High Hatters. The group was eventually rechristened The Earls and Figueiredo changed his last name to Chance, after the record label. In 1962, the Earls' single "Remember Then" was a national hit. Other records entered the charts, including "Never" (top 5 on the local New York chart), "Life Is But a Dream" (top 10 on the local New York charts), and "I Believe", considered an East Coast classic. Other recordings include "Looking For My Baby" and "Kissing". Albums included Remember Me Baby, The Earls: Today, The Earls – LIVE, Earl Change, and Streets of the Bronx.
Chance also had a short-lived solo career in the late 1960s, but as the oldies revival scene started a strong run in the early 1970s and 1980s, the Earls became one of the most requested groups in the doo-wop genre and Chance returned to the group. They continued to perform actively and remained popular on the oldies circuit.
Chance was diagnosed with cancer in 2000, but went successfully through chemotherapy. He performed at the 2001 DOO WOP special in Pittsburgh, and told his fans about his experiences with his illness, before he sang "I Believe". He died of lung cancer in Orlando, Florida, on September 5, 2023, at the age of 82.

# Abba P. Schwartz

Abba Philip Schwartz (April 17, 1916 – September 13, 1989) was United States Assistant Secretary of State for Security and Consular Affairs from 1962 to 1966.

## Biography

Abba P. Schwartz was born in Baltimore on April 17, 1916. He was educated at the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University, receiving a B.S. in Foreign Service in 1936. He then attended Harvard Law School, receiving an LL.B. in 1939.
After law school, Schwartz established a law practice in Washington, D.C. In the wake of the U.S. entry into World War II, 1942 he enlisted in the United States Merchant Marines Cadet Corps. As part of the merchant marine, he participated in operations ferrying supplies to the Soviet Union at Murmansk. In 1944, he became a lieutenant in the United States Navy. He was discharged from the Navy in 1946.
Schwartz then took a job with the Intergovernmental Committee on Refugees in London. In 1947, he joined the United Nations International Refugee Organization in Geneva, serving as reparations director.
In 1949, Schwartz returned to the private practice of law in Washington, D.C. From 1949 to 1962, he was also special legal counsel for the Intergovernmental Committee for European Migration. During the 1950s, he became a close political associate of Sen. John F. Kennedy (D—MA) and his brother Robert F. Kennedy. He also became a trusted adviser of Eleanor Roosevelt.
When John F. Kennedy became President of the United States, he named Schwartz Assistant Secretary of State for Security and Consular Affairs in 1962; after Senate confirmation, Schwartz held this office from October 5, 1962, until March 6, 1966. During his time as Assistant Secretary, Schwartz encouraged Robert F. Kennedy (now United States Attorney General) to exercise the discretion granted to the Attorney General by the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 to allow East European refugees and visitors to come to the United States even if they held suspect political views that would otherwise disqualify them. He also negotiated a deal with Cuba that allowed thousands of Cubans to come to the United States as refugees. Schwartz resigned from office abruptly in 1966, amid rumors that he had been hounded out of the United States Department of State by conservatives who disliked his liberal approach to admission of foreign nationals to the U.S.
After leaving the State Department, Schwartz returned to the private practice of law again. In 1967, United States Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara named Schwartz his special assistant for prisoners of war in Vietnam. As such, during the Vietnam War, he promoted programs to help refugees in South Vietnam and to repatriate prisoners taken by the Vietcong and North Vietnamese. Schwartz authored a book, entitled The Open Society, that was published by William Morrow and Company in 1968. In it, he argued for more liberal U.S. immigration policies.
Schwartz died of a heart attack on September 13, 1989.
# 2023 Afghanistan cold snap

A cold snap began in Afghanistan on January 10, 2023. Temperatures reached as low as −33 °C (−27 °F) and snowfall was as high as 30 centimetres (12 in) in more mountainous regions. The cold snap killed at least 160 people, making it the deadliest weather event of 2023 until Cyclone Freddy. Additionally, nearly 80,000 livestock were killed.

## Impact

Temperatures fell to a low of −33 °C (−27 °F), with up to 30 centimetres (12 in) of snow in the higher mountain altitudes, directly or indirectly killing at least 162 people in various provinces. At least 140 people using gas for heating were hospitalized for carbon monoxide poisoning in Herat Province. Over 77,000 livestock died due to the weather. Over 50 houses were damaged across the country.

## Relief

The cold came while Afghanistan was experiencing a famine that affected more than half of the Afghan population. The country had become a pariah state following the 2021 Taliban offensive and the reestablishment of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, leading to limited foreign aid.
Humanitarian relief efforts provided aid that included heating and relief funds. Foreign relief efforts were complicated by a ban on women providing humanitarian aid. These restrictions were relaxed for health-related aid on January 17, so non-governmental organizations such as the International Rescue Committee, Save the Children, and Care International resumed operations. Supreme leader Hibatullah Akhundzada stated that the restrictions would not be repealed.
Military helicopters were used to provide relief for citizens cut off by snow, but they were unable to access Afghanistan's mountainous regions.

# Rotherham Town F.C. (1899)

Rotherham Town F.C. was an English football club from Rotherham, Yorkshire. They merged with rivals Rotherham County in 1925 to form Rotherham United.

## History

In 1899, Rotherham Casuals and Rotherham Grammar School combined to form Rotherham F.C. On becoming a limited company in 1904 a new name of Rotherham Athletic was adopted, and a year later they changed their name again, to Rotherham Town (no relation to the previous Rotherham Town that was a member of the Football League in the 1890s).
In 1903 the new club joined the Midland League, where they remained until 1925. At the end of the 1921–22 season, a merger had been agreed with their Third Division North neighbours Rotherham County, owing to a parlous financial state. The club even went so far to resign from the Midland League, but in late May 1922 the club resolved to carry on, and had to withdraw its resignation. The merger finally took place in March 1925, the clubs forming Rotherham United.

## Colours

As Rotherham, the club wore claret and blue halved shirts. In 1903 they changed to blue and white, which (apart from spending 1905–06 in white jerseys) remained the colours of the club to dissolution, originally as blue with white sleeves, but from 1919 in stripes.

## Ground

The club played at Clifton Lane, the ground of the predecessor Rotherham Town.

# Qalyoub train collision

The Qalyoub train collision occurred at a converging junction in Qalyoub to the north of Cairo in Egypt on 21 August 2006, when two commuter trains collided during the morning rush hour, killing 58 people and injuring over 140.

## Overview

A passenger train from Mansoura passed a red signal and crashed into a stationary train that had come from Benha. Four passenger cars derailed in the accident, which closed the line in the country's Nile Delta region. The train was estimated to have been travelling at more than 50 mph (80 km/h) at the time of the collision. The driver of the Mansoura service was amongst the dead.

## Aftermath

In the wake of the crash, Egyptian National Railways director Hanafi Abdel Qawi was dismissed and 14 railway officials were later charged with gross negligence and jailed. The prosecutor's office said the officials ignored repairing some technical equipment that control train signals.
Egypt has a poor safety record on its railways and there are several fatal crashes each year, usually blamed on inadequately maintained equipment.
Families of each victim who died in the accident received compensation of £E5,000 (about $US870). Passengers who were injured will get £E1,000.

## Proposed upgrade

Egypt is proposing to implement an upgrade project including some upgrade of its signalling.

# John Seccombe

Rev. John Seccombe (25 April 1708 – 27 October 1792) was an author, a founder of Chester, Nova Scotia and was “the best-known and most highly respected clergyman in Nova Scotia.” He was also the author of Father Abbey's Will, which was printed as a poem and a broadsheet over 30 times throughout the 18th century in England and America. According to the Manual of American Literature, the poem "was one of the best comic poems of that day." As a result of the poem, the History of American Literature indicated that Seccombe "had an extraordinary notoriety" in America's early literary history.

## Harvard, Massachusetts

Seccombe graduated Harvard College (1728) and then became the first congregational minister of the town of Harvard, Massachusetts, where he stayed for 25 years (1733 -1757). While at Harvard, he built the "grandest house" in Harvard at the centre of town and a cottage on one of the two largest islands in Bare Hill Pond (now named Ministers Island). (He sold the house to Henry Bromfield in 1765. His house in Harvard burned in 1854.)
As an author, Seccombe’s best known work is “Father Abbey’s will” (1732), which became famous throughout New England. The poem is a 15 stanza nonsense verse, which was turned into a Broadside ballad and published many times. Initially the poem was published in 1732 in the Gentleman's Magazine (June) and the London Magazine (August). It was continued to be republished by the Massachusetts Magazine in November, 1794. The name Abbey was a misnomer for Matthew Abdy, a custodian of the town, and the poem listed an inventory of Abdy's estate. The poetic composition was first published in Weekly Rehearsal (Boston, Mass.), 3 Jan. 1732. He was re-published in the Gentlman's Magazine, May 2, 1732 and London Magazine (October 1732) and continued to be re-published throughout the 18th and 19th century. The song was anthologized in Louis Untermeyer's Early American Poets (2001).
In 1736, he married the grand daughter of Rev. Solomon Stoddard. In 1745, he created upheaval in his community by sponsoring Rev. George Whitefield to speak.

## Chester, Nova Scotia

He left Massachusetts and helped establish Chester, Nova Scotia with Timothy Houghton (1761). He built a home at Pleasant Point, seven miles from Chester. He also preached at St. Matthew’s Church in Halifax. He ordained the first Presbyterian minister in British North America Bruin Romkes Comingo. In 1769, Seccombe baptized slaves at St. Matthews.
In the wake of the American patriot rebellion in the Siege of Fort Cumberland, in 1776, along with other members of St. Matthew's Church, Seccombe was arraigned by the Nova Scotia Council for having American patriot sympathies.
He went on to write the eulogies for the wives of Jonathan Belcher and Benjamin Green.
Having served 33 years in Chester, Seccombe died at his home on Seccombes Island, west of Chester.

She was last seen near 10th Street and Rex Avenue after a friend dropped her off just after midnight in Northwest Joplin. Her mother reported her missing on July 20, 2018. Burton had been involved in car accident on July 11, 2018.

## Investigation

The Joplin Police Department and Federal Bureau of Investigation have received numerous tips and leads regarding her disappearance.
In April 2019, new leads led investigators to a property in Newton County, Missouri, where several agencies executed a drug search warrant. Credible information received by the Joplin Police Department prompted authorities to conduct a thorough search of the property, including its outbuildings, using search and rescue dogs. Newton County Sheriff Chris Jennings confirmed that items were removed from the property during the search, although he did not disclose their nature or connection to the case. After the search of the home, investigators returned to the property and began searching a pond with divers and search and rescue dogs. Around that time, Newton County Sheriff Chris Jennings noted that no definitive evidence had been found in the pond.
The FBI is offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for Sarah's disappearance.

## Family and community efforts

Friends and family organized a Facebook page, Bring Sarah Burton Home. In September, 2018, a candlelight vigil titled "Lighting the Way Home for Sarah" was held at Mercy Park in Joplin.

## Personal life

She has two children. Burton struggled with addiction to Methamphetamine. She is reported to have been a victim of a violent crime following high school.
She had a history of legal troubles, including time in prison in 2010. At the time of her disappearance, she was free on bail for charges of drug possession, trafficking in stolen identities, and stealing a motor vehicle.

# Martin Saggers

Martin John Saggers (born 23 May 1972) is an English county cricket umpire and a retired English cricketer. He played international cricket for the England cricket team, including appearing in three Test matches and spent the majority of his first-class cricket career at Kent County Cricket Club. Saggers was born in King's Lynn in Norfolk.
Saggers had little success in his three seasons with Durham between 1996 and 1998, but then joined Kent and from 2000 to 2003 took more than 50 first-class wickets each year, his best being 83 in 2002. He also played for Essex on loan in 2007. He played for his native Norfolk in minor county matches in 1995–6.
Saggers made his Test match debut in 2003/04, as a replacement for the injured Andrew Flintoff in Dhaka, and also played in two of the three Tests against New Zealand the following summer. At Leeds he took the wicket of Mark Richardson with his first ball, but some wayward bowling and poor performances with the bat led to him being dropped for the games against the West Indies. With the bat, he scored 1, 0 and 0 in three innings, finishing his Test career with a batting average of 0.33.
Saggers suffered a knee injury in August 2009, and a month later announced his retirement from professional cricket. Graham Johnson, Kent's chairman of cricket, paid tribute to Saggers, saying "We owe Martin a great deal, especially during a period when he was our seam attack. Quite rightly, on the basis of this success, he received recognition at International level. Always enthusiastic and positive during his career, he will carry these qualities into his plans for what follows after cricket".
In 2012 Saggers became a full-time cricket umpire, standing in County Championship matches in England.
In 2020, he was appointed to the ICC International Umpires' Panel. He was one of the on-field umpires for the 2022 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup in the West Indies.
