Nobu Kōda 幸田延 (1870–1946) was a Japanese composer, violinist, and music teacher. She was one of the first Japanese women to study music overseas. She studied at the New England Conservatory. She later studied in Europe. She was the sister of Kōda Rohan.

## Early life

Nobu Kōda was born on 19 April 1870. Both her and her sister Andō Kōko studied at the Tokyo Music School (now known as Tokyo University of the Arts). As a child she studied the koto and studied western music with Nakamura Sen. She graduated from the Institute in 1885 as part of the first graduating class.

## Education

Kōda's studies abroad allowed her to become an authority on western music up on her return to Japan.
She went to Boston and studied at the New England Conservatory in 1889 at the age of 19, becoming one of the first Japanese women to study abroad. She then returned to Japan for a short time before going to Europe. She studied piano, violin, singing and music composition in Vienna through 1895 before returning once again to Japan.
In 1892 she went to Germany and studied there with Joseph Joachim.
Nobu Kōda would leave for Europe again in 1909, though would once again return to Japan, where she lived until her death in 1946.

## Career

She became a professor at the Tokyo Music School in 1895.
After returning to Japan, she founded a private music school from her home, giving piano lessons to upper class girls and members of the royal family.
She was also a concert artist, premiering several Western works in Japan including Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto, Concerto for Two Violins by J.S. Bach, and Beethoven String Quartets.

## Impact and works

Nobu Koda was considered an authority on western music in Japan, and was the first Japanese composer to write a violin sonata.
Both Nobu Koda and her sister taught Shinichi Suzuki. She encouraged him to study abroad in Germany, where he would deepen his knowledge of violin and pedagogy and eventually develop the famous Suzuki Teaching Method. As a professor at the Tokyo Music School, she taught pianist and composer Rentarō Taki, opera singer Miura Tamaki, and composer and conductor Kosaku Yamada.
Her brother Rohan Koda was one of the most highly respected authors of the time. His daughter Aya, granddaughter Tama, and great-granddaughter Nao were all award-winning authors. They all wrote personal accounts of their family's history & often mentioned Nobu, preventing her from falling into obscurity.
On May 6th, 2023, pianist Dr. Makiko Hirata gave a presentation & performance of works by the Koda family at the Little Tokyo Library Branch. She also published an article for Nikkan San (The Japanese Daily Sun) on Koda and continues to champion the family's legacy.
# Alcon (name)

The name Alcon (/ˈælkɒn/; Ancient Greek: Ἄλκων) or Alco can refer to a number of people from classical history:
* Alcon the Molossian (6th century BC) suitor of Agariste of Sicyon.
* Alcon, a surgeon (vulnerum medicus) at Rome in the reign of Claudius, 41–54, who is said by Pliny to have been banished to Gaul, and to have been fined ten million sestertii. After his return from banishment, he is said to have gained by his practice an equal sum within a few years, which, however, seems so enormous that there must probably be some mistake in the text. A surgeon of the same name, who is mentioned by Martial as a contemporary, may possibly be the same person.
* Alcon, a sculptor mentioned by Pliny. He was the author of a statue of Hercules at Thebes, made of iron, as symbolic of the god's endurance of labor.
# White Hall (Princess Anne, Maryland)

White Hall is a historic home located at Princess Anne, Somerset County, Maryland, United States. It is a 2+1⁄2-story, ell shaped frame house constructed about 1785–1798. The house features a rare mid-19th-century mural painting depicting landscapes and period costumes survives in a second-floor room, a Flemish bond brick gable end wall, and the three-room plan divided by a center hall.
Prior to construction of the home, the land was variously known as Bailey's Good Luck, Austin Adventure, Bellville, the Creek Farm, the Bailey Farm, and in earliest known records, "Taunton Deane." The land was originally granted to Francis Roberts (1636-1703), who arrived there from England. Roberts sold the land to Benjamin Cottman in a documented sale on June 25, 1671.
White Hall was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.

# White Hall (Zanoni, Virginia)

White Hall on the Ware River near Zanoni, Gloucester County, Virginia, was the ancestral home of the prominent Willis family of colonial Virginia.
The Willises were one of the First Families of Virginia, with the first settler arriving by 1642. Other family members include the Francis Willis (academic) and Francis Willis (Representative).
The 2+1⁄2-story brick home on the property since 1836 was described as "an excellent example of the temple-form dwelling so popular in this region during the early decades of the 19th Century" in a 1984 nomination for the National Register of Historic Places.
"With its classical, temple-like mass, White Hall epitomizes the neo-classical spirit which pervades early American decorative art," the nomination adds.
The nomination, approved by the Virginia Historic Landmarks Commission, describes the home as a mix of original construction by Dr. Samuel Powell Byrd in 1836 and a series of renovations.
The living room and dining room contain "handsome colonial revival paneling" from a 1938 restoration but mantels that are much earlier with "quirked moldings, carried on flanking Tucsan colonetts" and the original doors opening on the front porch facing the Ware River.
White Hall sits on a 7-acre tract on the Ware River near the mouth of Wilson Creek and is reached by a long, curving drive lined with mature cedars.
The house is the successor to an earlier, one-story brick house built by the Willis family.
The land was patented in 1666 by Francis Willis, the first in the family to arrive in Virginia from Oxford, England. He served as a delegate from Gloucester County to the Virginia House of Burgesses in 1652.
Francis Willis returned to England and bequeathed the estate upon his death in 1690 to a nephew, Francis Willis. He is believed to have started the first house, which measured 56 feet by 22 feet. A wing added later measured 17 feet by 25 feet.
The nephew left the house to his son Francis, who became the head of a prominent Virginia family and served in the House of Burgesses in 1748.
The home is located about six miles southeast of the Gloucester County Courthouse and is one of several National Register of Historic Places listings in Gloucester County, Virginia. It is privately owned.

# Škoda 1101/1102

The Škoda 1101 is a small family car that was produced by Czechoslovak automaker AZNP at their plants in Mladá Boleslav, Vrchlabí and Kvasiny. It was basically a modernized version of the Škoda Popular 1101, which was introduced in 1939. The main differences were a redesigned body (although still with wooden frame) and a new dashboard. Production of the Škoda 1101 began in 1946.
In 1949 the Škoda 1102 entered production. It was virtually identical with 1101 type, except for a new column-mounted shifter. The two models were produced simultaneously, with 1102 chassis preferably used for sedan bodies and 1101 for vans, station-wagons and ambulances. Production ceased in 1952, by when about 67,000 vehicles had been made, of which some 50,000 vehicles were exported.
The Škoda 1101/1102 is also known by the popular name Tudor, derived from its two-door sedan body, which was the first to come into production. This nickname was eventually commonly used for all 1101/1102, regardless of their body.
A military version of the Škoda 1101 was built, called the Škoda 1101 VO. It has the same chassis and engine as the standard Škoda 1101, with a new all-steel, open 4-door body. In 1948–51 4,237 vehicles were produced, most of them for export.

## Specifications

The car is powered by a four-cylinder 1089 cc OHV water-cooled engine producing at maximum power 32 hp at 4,200 rpm. The four-speed gear-box includes synchromesh on the top two ratios, power being delivered to the rear wheels via a jointed prop shaft.
* Front suspension: Independent using transverse leaf springs.
* Rear suspension: independent using transverse leaf springs with floating half-axles.
* Top speed: 100 km/h (62 mph).

# Anthony R. Suarez

Anthony R. Suarez (born 1967) is a New Jersey attorney and has served as Mayor of Ridgefield, New Jersey from 2004 to 2023. He was appointed to a judgeship on the New Jersey Superior Court in 2023.

## Biography

Suarez was born in Englewood, New Jersey, and was raised in nearby Ridgefield. He graduated from Ridgefield Memorial High School in 1984. He then attended Saint Peter's College in Jersey City, graduating with a B.A. degree in 1988. He received a J.D. degree from Fordham University School of Law in 1993.
He was admitted to the New Jersey Bar in 1993 and the New York Bar in 1994. He has been an attorney at the Fort Lee law firm Dario Yacker Suarez & Albert.
Suarez was elected to the Ridgefield Borough Council in 1998, and was reelected to the Council in 2001. He was elected mayor in 2003 and was reelected in 2007. He is the first elected Latino mayor in the history of Bergen County and the second Democratic mayor in the history of Ridgefield.

## Operation Bid Rig

On July 23, 2009, Suarez was arrested as part of Operation Bid Rig, a joint operation of the FBI, IRS, and the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of New Jersey into political corruption and money laundering. Suarez was charged with accepting a $10,000 cash bribe from an FBI informant through a middleman, Vincent Tabbachino, for assistance in arranging approvals to develop properties in Ridgefield.
Though the two other mayors implicated in the sting operation, Peter Cammarano of Hoboken and Dennis Elwell of Secaucus, resigned following their arrests, Suarez rebuffed calls for his resignation, including from Governor Jon Corzine. On August 3, 2009, Corzine launched an investigation into whether the State of New Jersey should seize control of Ridgefield's finances. Targeting Ridgefield, Corzine also signed an Executive Order freezing development approvals in municipalities with chief executives facing corruption charges who have not resigned from office.
Suarez was acquitted on all charges on October 27, 2010.

## Judicial appointment

In 2023, Governor Phil Murphy appointed Suarez to become a judge of the New Jersey Superior Court. David Wildstein of the New Jersey Globe called Suarez's nomination "a complete and total vindication of the Ridgefield mayor" following Operation Bid Rig. Following his New Jersey Senate confirmation, Judge Suarez was assigned to the Bergen County Superior Court, Civil Division.
# Alector

* Alector, son of Magnes and Meliboea, eponyms of Magnesia and the town of Meliboea respectively.
* Alector, the Boeotian father of Leitus. Homer calls him "Alectryon", and Diodorus "Electryon", naming him among the sons of Itonus.

# White Horse Farm

White Horse Farm, also known as the Elijah F. Pennypacker House, is a historic home and farm located in Schuylkill Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania. The original section was built around 1770. In the 19th century, it was the home of abolitionist Elijah F. Pennypacker and served as a station on the Underground Railroad. The farm was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.

## History

Elijah F. Pennypacker (1804-1888) served in the Pennsylvania State Legislature as a colleague of Thaddeus Stevens from 1831 until 1836, when he left to focus on the antislavery cause. He became president of the Chester County and Pennsylvania abolitionist societies. In 1840 his home became a station on the Underground Railroad. Fugitive slaves arrived from three different routes, and were sent north to Norristown and other stations to the north and east. Poet and abolitionist John Greenleaf Whittier said of Pennypacker, "In mind, body, and brave championship of the cause of freedom, he was one of the most remarkable men I ever knew."
The house is a 2+1⁄2-story, stuccoed stone structure with a gable roof. The oldest section dates to about 1770, as a simple two-story, two bay one room over one room house. About 1810, a two bay section was added to the north, and about 1840 a two-story, two bay frame section was added to it. The house was remodeled and expanded in 1915, with the addition of a two-story rear section and one / two-story front verandah with Doric order capitals. The remodeling incorporated Georgian Revival design details. Also on the property are a contributing barn (c. 1810) and spring house.
# Comrat Republic

The Comrat Republic (Gagauz: Κομράτ Ρεσπυβλικάσι, Komrat Respublikası; Romanian: Republica de la Comrat; Russian: Комратская республика, romanized: Komratskaya respublika) was an autonomous republic established in the village of Comrat, in the Bessarabia Governorate, during the Russian Revolution of 1905 in protest of the tsarist regime of the Russian Empire. It was created after a mutiny by Andrey Galatsan, a socialist revolutionary, with the support of the local Gagauz population. It lasted six days (from 6 January to 12 January) and is today viewed positively in Gagauzia (now in Moldova) as a premonition of the future Gagauz territorial autonomy.

## History

In 1905, following the arrival of the 1905 Russian Revolution, the Gagauz people began to call for the abolition of tsarism in the Russian Empire. Thus, Andrey Galatsan, a student at the Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute and a revolutionary socialist, created a clandestine organization in the village of Comrat, with a Gagauz ethnic majority. Galatsan began to urge the Gagauz peasant population to join his fight for rights. Protests by them began, and they started demanding to stop the recruitment of Gagauz people into the Imperial Russian Army, education in the Gagauz language, free medical care and others. During this period, the idea of Gagauz territorial autonomy began to be considered for the first time.
On 6 January 1906, a demonstration began in Comrat that escalated into mutiny, with Galatsan's supporters overthrowing the local authorities and proclaiming the Comrat Republic. A committee under Galatsan's rule was established, and its first decisions were to repeal taxes, cancel IOUs and perform a land reform. Later, on 10 January, a Russian newspaper reported "Comrat, with a population of 10,000, is in the hands of the insurgents. Autonomy has been proclaimed. The authorities have been fired and arrested. The dragoons (a mounted infantry) are unarmed". The flag of the Socialist Revolutionary Party, a red flag with the Russian-language slogan Въ борьбѣ обрѣтешь ты право свое ("Through struggle you will attain your rights") printed on it, was promoted as a central symbol of the republic.
On 12 January, after six days, the rebellion was suppressed. Galatsan and several of his companions were tried for sedition and deported to Siberia.
During the times of the Soviet Union, the Comrat Republic was presented as a socialist and proletarian movement but not as an ethnic one. However, since the proclamation of the Autonomous Territorial Unit of Gagauzia, it has been regarded as a "sign" or "premonition" of the Gagauz autonomy, highlighting its socialist characteristics but especially the ethnic Gagauz ones. Today, one of the streets of Comrat is named after Galatsan.

# CSEMADOK

CSEMADOK, also written Csemadok, is a cultural society of ethnic Hungarians in Slovakia.
CSEMADOK was formed on March 5, 1949, in Bratislava as a part of the Czechoslovak National Front, an umbrella statewide organization. The name was abbreviation for Hungarian Csehszlovákiai Magyar Dolgozók Kultúregyesülete (see below for name changes, in Slovak: Kultúrny zväz maďarských pracujúcich v Československu, English: Czechoslovak Hungarian Workers' Cultural Association). It was one of the few ethnic based organizations in Czechoslovakia.
The organization was reported to have 43,000 members in 1953 and almost 50,000 in 1955. The society organized cultural events, lectures and supported theater-, song- and dance groups. Since 1951 it published a monthly "Fáklya" (The Torch), then, since December 1956, a weekly "A Hét" (The Week).
During the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 the leadership supported position of Czechoslovak government toward the events; this resulted in decline of members (33,000 reported in 1957).
In 1968, during the Prague Spring period, CSEMADOK supported the liberalization policies, tried to change into a political interest group and asked for more rights and privileges for the ethnic Hungarians. After the suppression of Prague Spring politics leadership of CSEMADOK was purged.
After dissolution of Czechoslovakia (end of 1992) the organisation changed its name to Szlovákiai Magyar Társadalmi és Közmüvelödési Szövetség – Csemadok (Slovak: Maďarský kultúrny a spoločenský zväz na Slovensku, English: Hungarian Social and Cultural Association of Slovakia). Toward the end of the 1990s the organisation, dependent on money from the Slovak government, almost collapsed as the government radically restricted the financial support.
