## Biography

He has received praise from both the public and critics for his exceptional musical talent. In 2018, at the age of six, he became the youngest Greek musician ever to perform at Carnegie Hall in New York. A few months later, he was selected to give a piano recital at London's Royal Albert Hall.

# Abner Powell

Abner Charles Powell (December 15, 1860 – August 7, 1953) was an American Major League Baseball player who was a member of the Washington Nationals of the Union Association in 1884.
He later played for the Baltimore Orioles and the Cincinnati Red Stockings in 1886. He also managed and owned several teams, and is best known for his innovations as a manager.

## Personal life

Powell was born in Shenandoah, Pennsylvania He died in New Orleans, aged 92.

## Innovations

Powell is credited with various innovations that changed baseball, though in many cases this is incorrect or overstated.
He is incorrectly credited with inventing rain checks and "ladies' day," but both of these were in use in New Orleans before Powell. Powell did improve the existing rain check system, however, by adding a perforated stub to tickets when sold so that only purchasers of tickets (and not other spectators, notably free-riders and fence-climbers) could get new tickets.
The idea of Ladies Day was to create an environment in the stands that would be free of unsavory characters and conduct, as well as to make baseball a family-oriented event; it dates at least to 1880 in New Orleans. Powell scheduled a recurring Ladies Day in 1887.
Powell is also credited with using an infield tarpaulin so that fields could be ready immediately after rain storms.
# Government Logistics Department

The Government Logistics Department (GLD) is a unit of the Hong Kong government responsible for the printing and publishing of government materials, procurement for government bureaus and departments, and some land transport operations for government departments.
The GLD took over the old role of the Government Printer in 2003. In addition to the GLD, the Hong Kong Government created the Office of the Government Chief Information Officer (OGCIO) in 2004. Since the Handover in 1997, the Hong Kong government has been promoting what it bills as "e-government". The role of the GLD is still important though, for those who do not have access to the Internet and services that still require printed material.
The GLD is the responsibility of the Secretary for Commerce and Economic Development, whereas the OGCIO is under the Financial Secretary.

## History

The Government Logistics Department was established through a merger of three existing government departments. The Store Department was founded in 1938, and was renamed the Government Supplies Department in 1969. The former Printing Department was established in 1952. The Government Land Transport Agency was established in 1978 as part of the Finance Branch, and became a department in 1979.
The GLD was established on 1 July 2003, combining the three departments. According to the GLD, this achieved cost savings, with the annual budget and staff establishment both being reduced between 2003–04 and 2008–09.

About his multi-role in the drama, Okada said “When Netflix executive producer Mr. Takahashi reached out to me, I was still acting in historical dramas. Back then, I was already thinking of ways to make this genre a hit, not just in Japan, but all over the world. I saw their potential for action, drama, social commentary, and entertainment, but I knew they could be taken further. That’s when I came across Imamura’s novel. It was written in a way that modern audiences could enjoy, and I was excited about the idea of adapting it”. The series is scheduled to start streaming in November 2025.
