# Beck University

Beck University was a web-based education program launched in July 2010 by American radio and television host Glenn Beck's Mercury Radio Arts. Beck University offered online classes in subjects such as religion, American history, and economics that emphasized Beck's Conservative Christian views. The classes were offered to anyone who subscribes to Beck's TheBlaze. Despite the use of the term "university" in the title, Beck University's courses are not for credit, and Beck himself never completed any college or university courses.

## Courses

The charter selection of courses offered by Beck University, as of July 2010, included Faith 101, 102, and 103; Hope 101, 102, and 103; and Charity 101, 102 and 103. The classes consist of weekly lectures every Wednesday night.
Faith 101 dealt with American history and is taught by David Barton, whom Beck has praised as "the Library of Congress in shoes". Barton is an evangelical Christian minister and author who is known "for his argument that the founding fathers renounced the separation of church and state".
Hope 101 dealt with economics and was taught by David L. Buckner, who operates an executive training institute and is an adjunct professor of psychology and education at Columbia University Teachers College, as well as an adjunct professor of business at the Stern School of Business at New York University.
Charity 101 was taught by the chair of Louisiana State University political science department James R. Stoner, Jr. The course made the connection between the Constitution, The Federalist Papers, and the U.S. as a charitable nation.

## Coat of arms

Beck University's coat of arms (based on Princeton University's coat of arms) features a quill, an American bison, and an image of George Washington, as well as the motto "Tyrannis Seditio, Obsequium Deo", which is Latin for "Revolution against tyrants, submission to God".

# HMS Pathfinder (G10)

HMS Pathfinder was a P-class destroyer built for the Royal Navy during the Second World War. She was damaged while serving in the Far East, and was scrapped after the end of the war.

## Description

The P-class destroyers were repeats of the preceding O class, except that they were armed with 4-inch (102 mm) anti-aircraft guns. They displaced 1,640 long tons (1,670 t) at standard load and 2,250 long tons (2,290 t) at deep load. The ships had an overall length of 345 feet (105.2 m), a beam of 35 feet (10.7 m) and a deep draught of 12 feet 3 inches (3.7 m). They were powered by two Parsons geared steam turbines, each driving one propeller shaft, using steam provided by two Admiralty three-drum boilers. The turbines developed a total of 40,000 shaft horsepower (30,000 kW) and gave a maximum speed of 36 knots (67 km/h; 41 mph). The ships carried a maximum of 500 long tons (510 t) of fuel oil that gave them a range of 3,850 nautical miles (7,130 km; 4,430 mi) at 20 knots (37 km/h; 23 mph). The ships' complement was 176 officers and men.
Pathfinder was armed with four QF 4-inch Mark V guns in single mounts, two pairs [superfiring] fore and aft. Her light anti-aircraft suite was composed of one quadruple mount for 2-pounder "pom-pom" guns and four single Oerlikon 20 mm cannon. The ship was fitted with two above-water quadruple mount for 21-inch (533 mm) torpedoes. The ship was fitted with four depth charge throwers and two racks for 70 depth charges.

## Construction and career

The ship was built by Hawthorn Leslie & Co, and was launched on 10 April 1941, and commissioned in April 1942. During the war, Pathfinder was active in a number of theatres, and helped to sink several enemy submarines.
Pathfinder was commanded by Commander Edward Albert Gibbs from January 1942 to November 1943, during which time she assisted the destroyer Ithuriel in sinking the Italian submarine Cobalto, assisted the destroyers Vimy and Quentin to sink the German submarine U-162, assisted in the rescue of nearly 5,000 survivors from the troopship Strathallan after it was torpedoed off Oran, Algeria. She also sank the German submarine U-203 with assistance from Swordfish aircraft flying off the aircraft carrier Biter.
On 11 February 1945, Pathfinder was hit by an Imperial Japanese army fighter-bomber Ki-43 off Ramree, and was taken out of service. She sailed back to the UK using her starboard engine. On arrival at Devonport she was placed in reserve. She was then sold to the ship breakers Howells and scrapped in November 1948 at Milford Haven.
# MATS/2.6 mine

The MATS/2.6 is a scatterable Italian circular, plastic-cased minimum metal blast resistant anti-tank blast mine. It is very similar to the MATS/2, except that it uses a smooth pressure plate rather than a griddle pressure plate. It uses a pneumatic fuse which is resistant to shock and blast similar to the fuze fitted to the TS-50. The mine's plastic case is waterproof, and the mine can be scattered from a helicopter.
The mine is no longer in production.

# KJJ

KJJ was a short-lived radio station, licensed to The Radio Shop in Sunnyvale, California. It was issued its first license in December 1921 and deleted a year and one half later.

## History

The Radio Shop was a small manufacturing concern that greatly expanded with the rise of broadcasting in the early 1920s. The company's primary figures were Tom Lambert and Arthur E. Bessey, along with E. H. Bessey. Arthur Bessey held a license for a Special Amateur station, 6ZK, while Lambert had a background as an equipment designer. In September 1920 Bessey procured a valuable license from Edwin Howard Armstrong to use his regeneration patent, which was needed to build quality radio receivers. By 1922 the company was thriving, and a contemporary review wrote that "From a single room in the Bank of Italy building in San Jose to a magnificently equipped factory, from a business starting with nothing to advance orders on hand aggregating $750,000, in two years, is the actual achievement of these young men, whom the city of Sunnyvale may well congratulate itself on acquiring".
Beginning in late 1912, radio communication in the United States was regulated by the Department of Commerce. Initially there were no formal standards for which stations could make broadcasts intended for the general public, and after World War One stations under a variety of license classes, most commonly Amateur and Experimental, began making regularly scheduled programs on a limited basis. In order to provide common standards for the service, the Commerce Department issued a regulation effective December 1, 1921 that stated that broadcasting stations would now have to hold a Limited Commercial license that authorized operation on two designated broadcasting wavelengths: 360 meters (833 kHz) for "entertainment", and 485 meters (619 kHz) for "market and weather reports". On December 20, 1921 a broadcasting station license with the randomly assigned call letters KJJ was issued to The Radio Shop, for operation on 360 meters.
Initially the 360 meter wavelength was the only "entertainment" frequency available, so stations within various regions had to create timesharing agreements to assign individual operating slots. An August 1922 schedule reported KJJ operating Tuesday 8:15-9:00 p.m. and Friday 7:30-8:15 p.m. By November 1, 1922 there were twelve "San Francisco Bay District" stations sharing time on 360 meters, with KJJ broadcasting just one hour per week, from 8:00-9:00 p.m. on Thursday.
In late December it was reported "That more time will be available after January 1 is indicated in the confirmed reports that both the Emporium in San Francisco [KSL] and the Radio Shop at Sunnyvale will quit broadcasting after the first of the year." The following March it was noted that "The station at Sunnyvale, KJJ, has not been heard for several weeks and apparently has quit broadcasting, although no announcement to that effect has been made." KJJ was formally deleted on July 2, 1923.

## Biography

Charles Waldo was born in Tioga County, New York, in December 1819. He was raised and educated in that vicinity, learning the millwright trade from his elder brother, Orson. He then continued to develop his woodworking skills and worked as a patternmaker. In the mid-1840s, he moved west to the Wisconsin Territory, where he went to work for another brother, Albert Gallatin Waldo.
By early 1850, he was residing in Marquette County, Wisconsin, and that year he was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly, running on the Whig Party ticket. He served in the 4th Wisconsin Legislature.
After his term in the Legislature, he resided at Waupun, Wisconsin, before moving west to California. In his later years, he resided at the home of his son, Charles F. Waldo, in Hood River, Oregon. He died there shortly after his 91st birthday in 1909.

# Coat of arms of Warsaw

The coat of arms of Warsaw (The Warsaw Mermaid) consists of a syrenka in a red field. This imagery has been in use since at least the mid-14th century. The syrenka has traditionally held a silver sword although this does not appear on more recent versions.

## History

The first coat of arms of Warsaw depicted a dragon with a male human head, carrying a sword and a shield. The first known usage was on a seal from 1390. This is the oldest existing armed seal of Warsaw, consisting of a round seal bordered with the Latin inscription Sigilium Civitatis Varsoviensis (Seal of the city of Warsaw). Gradually the male head and body was replaced with that of a female, and by the end of 16th century the tail was also changed from that of a dragon to that of a fish. The only remaining parts of the original coat of arms are the sword and shield.
Beginning in the early 17th century Warsaw records associate a sword-wielding mermaid with the city. Since 1622, the Warsaw arms have been rendered as a mermaid with sword and shield in hand, representing Melusina from the River Vistula (Wisła), who in legend led Duke Bolesław II of Masovia (1262–1313) to the appropriate site (a fishing village) and ordered him to found the city, in about 1294. The origin of the legendary figure is not fully known. The city's motto is, appropriately, Contemnit procellas ("It defies the storms").

## Modern usage

The current official design of the symbol was introduced in 1938 but it was only used in this form until the beginning of World War II. After 1945, Communist authorities changed the emblem by removing the crown. The insignia was restored to the pre-war form on August 15, 1990.
In addition there is a "Great Emblem of the Capital City of Warsaw" (Herb Wielki Miasta Stołecznego Warszawy) used only for ceremonial occasions. It includes a depiction of the Virtuti Militari medal, which was awarded to the City to honor the bravery of its citizens during World War II. It also adds the second motto to the emblem — Semper invicta (Always invincible).
Every member of the Queen's Royal Hussars of the United Kingdom light cavalry wears the Maid of Warsaw, the crest of the City of Warsaw, on the left sleeve of his No. 2 (Service) Dress. Members of 651 Squadron Army Air Corps of the United Kingdom also wear the Maid of Warsaw on the left sleeve of their No. 2 (Service) Dress.

# North Coast Casket Company Building

The North Coast Casket Company Building was a building located in Everett, Washington listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The building was built in 1926 when William G. Humbert added a casket production building for his mill. It had been known as the North Coast Casket Company Building and the Collins Building.
While the building was placed on the National Register of Historical Places in 2006, costs made the building's renovations impractical. The building was deconstructed in 2010.
# Foss Creek

Foss Creek is a rain-fed watercourse in the San Francisco Bay Area. It is considered a tributary of the Russian River.
Foss Creek traverses the city of Healdsburg, from north to south, originating near Passalacqua Road and flowing into Dry Creek near the U.S. 101 Central Healdsburg interchange.
The creek features a number of street and railway crossings (the railroad roughly follows parallel to the waterway’s contours, falling into the creek in disrepair at some points) and carries run-off from the city, ameliorating the risk of flooding during heavy rainfall.
In places, the creek runs under the city’s Healdsburg Avenue. The waterway also passes two notable Sonoma County wine production centres: the Simi Winery and the Seghesio Winery.
Al Foss was an aeronautics engineer, he lived in Yorba Linda, CA but would spend the summers at his hotel/bar/river guiding business in Orleans outside of Happy Camp on the Klamath River. He re-introduced steelhead trout to a portion of the river and they named it after him, the Foss Riffles, as well as Foss Creek.
Several sensitive wetland areas bound the creek. These are the subject of several conservation and restoration programmes. The Foss Creek Community Restoration Project aims to restore native plants to the creek and its surrounding areas, removing large amounts of invasive, non-native plants in order to improve the local wildlife habitat.
During a storm in December 2014 which dumped 8.4 inches (210 mm) of rain in 24 hours, Foss Creek overflowed its banks, flooding portions of downtown Healdsburg and forcing the closure of City Hall. Automobiles were submerged to the level of their windows, roughly 150 business were affected, and two dozen businesses suffered interior water damage.
# North Hampton Library

The Old North Hampton Library is a historic library building at 237 Atlantic Avenue in North Hampton, New Hampshire. The small, single-story Tudor Revival structure was designed by Boston architect J. Lawrence Berry and built in 1907. It was the town's first purpose-built library building, and was used as such until a new library was built nearby in 1973. It presently houses town offices. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014, and the New Hampshire State Register of Historic Places in 2013.

## Description and history

The former North Hampton Library building is located in a cluster of municipal buildings on the north side of Atlantic Avenue (New Hampshire Route 111), a short way east of its junction with Lafayette Road (U.S. Route 1). It is a single-story structure, with fieldstone end walls and a side gable roof. The front facade is fieldstone (a continuation of the foundation) up to the bottoms of the windows, and is then finished in a half-timbered effect above. The main entrance is at its center, sheltered by projecting gabled portico with large timber brackets. It is flanked on the roof face by two eyebrow dormers. An addition, built in 1955, extends to the building's rear. The town's modern library is set further back on the same lot.
North Hampton's public library was established in 1892, after the state passed enabling legislation encouraging the creation of such public facilities. The library collection was originally housed in the North Hampton Town Hall, and a drive to build a dedicated facility began in 1899. Boston architect J. Lawrence Berry's first design, submitted in 1904, was rejected by the town meeting as too expensive to build, and the present design was accepted and built in 1907. A new library building was constructed in 1973, and this building has since housed town offices.
