# Benwood mine disaster

The Benwood Mine Disaster was a coal mine explosion that occurred on Monday, April 28, 1924, at the Benwood Mine of the former Benwood Works of Wheeling Steel Corporation located in the city of Benwood in Marshall County, West Virginia. The disaster claimed the lives of 119 coal miners. There were no survivors. It is the third worst coal mining disaster in the state of West Virginia after the Monongah Mine disaster of December 6, 1907, that claimed the lives of 361 miners and the Eccles Mine Disaster of April 28, 1914, that claimed the lives of 183 miners.
Two explosions were caused by the ignition of methane gas and coal dust. The explosions occurred at approximately 7:05 AM EST that morning about a half-hour after the morning shift of coal miners had entered the mine to begin work.
The majority of the victims were European immigrants of the early 20th Century from Poland, Italy, Greece, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Russia, Ukraine, Lithuania, Slovenia, Slovakia, England, Wales and Scotland. Most of the victims were of the Roman Catholic faith. 71 of the 119 victims were buried in Mount Calvary Cemetery in Wheeling, Ohio County, West Virginia, a Roman Catholic cemetery operated by the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston. 26 miners who were of the Greek Orthodox, Serbian Orthodox, and various Protestant faiths are buried close by Mount Calvary Cemetery in Wheeling's Greenwood Cemetery.
A memorial for the 119 victims of the 1924 Benwood Mine Disaster was erected at the mouth of Boggs Run along Boggs Run Road/Roosevelt Avenue in Benwood, Marshall County, West Virginia in 2014. A committee of eight Marshall County, West Virginia residents known as the Benwood Mine Disaster Memorial Committee was formed in August 2011. Fundraising for the memorial began in 2012. Construction took place between 2013 and 2014. The memorial was formally dedicated on September 27, 2014. A memorial for the five victims of the Hitchman Coal & Coke Company Mine Disaster that also occurred in Benwood on May 18, 1942, is located at the memorial site and was dedicated on the same day.
On September 2, 2019, a memorial was dedicated at the Benwood Mine Disaster Memorial Site honoring Joseph "Joe" Tellitocci, Jr. (December 31, 1952 - March 15, 2018), who served as the Project Coordinator of the Benwood Mine Disaster Memorial Committee from 2011 until his death in 2018 and was a former Benwood City Councilman from 1982 to 2002.

# Shroug

Shroug (Arabic: الشروق; Iraqi Arabic: الشروگ; lit. "easterners") is a term in Iraq used to describe a Shia Arab social group from southern Iraq. The word Shroug had also been used as a derogatory term by Sunni Arabs against Shia Arabs of southern Iraq.

## History

The term Shroug was used by the Sunni tribes of the Middle Euphrates to refer to the Shia tribes around Amara District. Shroug literally meant "easterners" and was sometimes used as a slur. Later, the term expanded to include all of southern Iraq. The Sunni tribes of the Middle Euphrates boasted that they retained their Bedouin customs while the Shroug were open to influence from neighboring regions.
The extreme poverty and social stigmatism of the Shroug later changed after Abdul-Karim Qasim came to power. Their number in 1958 was estimated at 100,000 people. The Qasim government built Sadr City as a complex where Shroug were settled. The Shroug later increased their social prominence as they began migrating from the countryside to the cities. Some Shroug also resided in the Marshes alongside the Marsh Arabs. Although the term Shroug initially referred to Amara District, it later was used to refer to Shia Arabs from southern and southeastern Iraq. Others claimed that the term Shroug had Mesopotamian origins, either from "Sharubak", meaning "the natives" in Sumerian, or from "Sherk", which occurred in the name of Sharrukin, which meant "just" or "righteous" in Akkadian.

# Bonanza Air Lines Flight 114

Bonanza Air Lines Flight 114 was a Fairchild F-27 turboprop airliner flying out of Phoenix, Arizona, to McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas, Nevada, on the evening of November 15, 1964.
At 8:25 p.m., during a landing approach in poor weather conditions, it crashed into the top of a hill in open desert country about 8 miles (13 km) SSW of Las Vegas. All 29 aboard—26 passengers and a crew of three—died instantly when the plane exploded on impact, no more than 10 feet (3 m) below a ridge crest. Although this was not the only incident involving a Bonanza Air Lines airplane, it is the only crash with fatalities during the airline's 23-year history.
Media reports initially stated that 28 had died, but these were corrected when the body of a very young girl was found amid the debris. The rugged terrain and snowdrifts surrounding the crash site initially prevented ground vehicles from reaching the wreckage, so four helicopters assisted in the recovery efforts. Eventually a narrow, unimproved road one mile long that climbs up a ridge and terminates at the hilltop crash site was built to assist in salvage operations; it can still be seen in current aerial photos.
Pilot Henry "Hank" Fitzpatrick, a veteran with over 11,000 hours experience, was initially blamed for flying too low due to misreading the approach chart for McCarran International, but an investigation years later showed that the chart was marked in a non-standard, and possibly confusing, manner. Some heirs of the crash victims sued the publisher of the chart, but before a verdict was reached in the wrongful death lawsuit the chart company, Jeppesen, agreed to pay the plaintiffs US$490,000.
# Snowbug

Snowbug is an album by the Anglo-Irish band the High Llamas, released in 1999. It was a commercial failure.
The album's first single was "Cookie Bay".

## Production

The album was produced by the High Llamas, and engineered by John McEntire. Mary Hansen and Laetitia Sadier sang on "Cookie Bay". Unlike previous albums, Snowbug was mainly improvised in the studio, with frontman Sean O'Hagan deciding to sing on fewer tracks. O'Hagan also decided to mostly steer away from electronic sounds in favor of acoustic ones.

| The Encyclopedia of Popular Music | |
| Orange County Register | B+ |
| Pitchfork | 5.8/10 |
Salon wrote that "the album's crystalline production and understated mid-tempo gait make it a near Adult Contemporary exercise in musical pleasantry, but the studied sweep of its craftsmanship clearly has other, more ambitious designs." The Birmingham Post thought that "if there's a chink in the Lamas' armour it's O'Hagan's fragile, insubstantial vocals which frequently fail to do justice to his elaborate Brian Wilsonesque arrangements." The Orange County Register stated that the "recycling is so beguiling."
The Herald opined that, "in 'Cut The Dummy Loose', the band may have recorded the theme for a kids' TV show so weird that only David Lynch could film it." The Guardian concluded that "the chief problem with this electroid whimsy, however, isn't that it doesn't come from the heart; it's that it doesn't make any discernible attempt to reach it." The Chicago Tribune determined that Snowbug "plays like a batch of singles instead of a suite, making it not only a perfect introduction, but a solid disc of individual, well-constructed ideas."
AllMusic wrote that, "at one point, there was charm and invention to his music, even if it was merely an homage, but now that it's become the patented High Llamas sound, it's clear that he's boxed himself into a corner, and worse, he doesn't seem that concerned about it."
