# 1990 Hungarian motorcycle Grand Prix

The 1990 Hungarian motorcycle Grand Prix was the penultimate round of the 1990 Grand Prix motorcycle racing season. It took place on the weekend of 31 August–2 September 1990 at the Hungaroring circuit.

## 500 cc race report

Wayne Rainey gets the start, then it’s Eddie Lawson, Kevin Schwantz, Wayne Gardner and Mick Doohan. Randy Mamola has a small highside and looks like he’s going to save it, but heads into the gravel and it falls as he bumps the tire barrier.
Doohan is on the move as he passes Gardner and Schwantz and catches up to Lawson. It’s a small gap up to Rainey. As they brake at the end of the start-finish straight, Lawson makes a mistake and goes wide, losing contact with Doohan, who catches Rainey.
Doohan passes Rainey on the straight as he did with Lawson, but Rainey can’t fight back as his bike breaks down. This is his first DNF, but the championship is sewn-up.
Doohan takes a big win, his first in 500s.

# Lawrence M. Judd

Lawrence McCully Judd (March 20, 1887 – October 4, 1968) was a politician of the Territory of Hawaii, serving as the seventh territorial governor. Judd is most well-known for his role in the Massie Affair, in which he commuted the sentence of three people convicted of manslaughter in the killing of Josef Kahahawai.
He later served as Governor of American Samoa from March 4 to August 4, 1953. As Governor of Hawai'i, his notable contributions included the establishment of public parks and numerous playgrounds, as well as reducing state spending. He also raised public awareness about the conditions in the leper colony on Moloka'i Island.

## Life

Judd was born March 20, 1887, in Honolulu, Hawaii, the grandson of Gerrit P. Judd, who was an early American Missionary, a cabinet minister to King Kamehameha III, and co-founder of Punahou School. His father was Judge Albert Francis Judd (1838–1900) and mother was Agnes Hall Boyd (1844–1934). He was the last of nine children. He was married March 6, 1909, at Richmond Hill, New York, to Florence Bell Hackett (1885–1974) and had five children: Helen Florence (1909-?), Agnes Elizabeth (1912-?), Sophie Janet (1913–?), Lawrence McCully Jr. (1917–?) and Emilie Bell (1920–?). Judd married his second wife, Eva Marie Lillibridge (1913–2002) in 1938.
Judd attended the Punahou School, The Hotchkiss School, and the University of Pennsylvania, where he was a member of its fraternity chapter of Phi Kappa Psi.

## Career

Judd made several fact-finding tours during his tenure in the Hawaii Territorial Senate 1920–1927.

### Governor of HawaiI

Herbert Hoover appointed Judd to succeed Wallace Rider Farrington as the seventh Governor of Hawaii Territory from 1929 to 1934. As territorial governor, he overhauled the system of governance in the colony. A source of controversy during his tenure, Judd commuted the sentence of Grace Hubbard Fortescue, socialite and niece of Alexander Graham Bell, convicted in the territorial courts of manslaughter in the death of a local man, Joseph Kahahawai. Hiring defense lawyer Clarence Darrow, Fortescue's case was known as the Massie Affair, a focus of nationwide newspaper coverage. Massie's sentence of ten years in prison was whittled down to one hour in the governor's chambers at ʻIolani Palace. The affair was the subject of a 2005 episode of the PBS series The American Experience, which included archival footage of Judd.

### Resident superintendent

Judd became Kalaupapa's resident superintendent in 1947.
Judd's service running Kalaupapa was a subject in the 2003 historical novel and national bestseller called Moloka'i by Alan Brennert as well as the historical account, The Colony: The Harrowing True Story of the Exiles of Molokai by John Tayman.

### Samoa and retirement

On 4 March 1953, President Dwight D. Eisenhower appointed Judd Governor of American Samoa on a temporary basis. He served only five months.
Judd died on October 4, 1968, in Honolulu and was interred in the city's Oahu Cemetery in Nuʻuanu Valley.
# Jefferson Jones

Jefferson Jones (c. 1817 – 1879) was a 19th-century American army colonel. He is best known for his role in leading the secessionist Kingdom of Callaway as its king in the 1860s.
The source of Jones' rank of colonel is uncertain. He does not appear on lists of officers of the United States Army, either regular or volunteer. He may have had a commission in the Confederate Army or the Missouri State Guard, the latter of which was formed from secessionist Missourians.
The Kingdom of Callaway was a county in Missouri that did not agree with the politics of either side in the American Civil War. As a result, it went on its own for a time. What made Callaway unique was that the Union general John B. Henderson signed a peace treaty with the Kingdom in October 1861, thus lending legitimacy to its existence.
The Union Army invaded Callaway, and Jones's administration was unable to stop it.
Jones was subsequently captured by Union forces and convicted for treason at a court martial. He was originally sentenced to solitary confinement, but the sentence was reduced to being confined to the limits of St. Louis. He remained in the city for the remainder of the war.
After the war, he was active in Democratic Party politics and was elected a state representative in 1875. He suffered a heart attack while he was giving a speech in 1876 and died in 1879.

There are two wheel options – large wheel, with a 19-inch front and 16-inch rear; and small wheel, with a 17-inch front and 14-inch rear. It weighs 157 lbs (wet).
# Gliese 754

Gliese 754 is a dim star in the southern constellation of Telescopium. It has an apparent visual magnitude of 12.25, which requires a telescope to view. The star is located at a distance of 19.3 light-years from the Sun based on parallax, and it is drifting further away with a radial velocity of +6 km/s. It is one of the hundred closest stars to the Solar System. Calculations of its orbit around the Milky Way showed that it is eccentric, and indicate that it might be a thick disk object.
The stellar classification of Gliese 754 is M4V, indicating that this is a small red dwarf star on the core hydrogen fusing main sequence. It has 17% of the mass of the Sun and 21% of the Sun's radius. The star is fully convective and is a source of X-ray emission. It is rotating slowly with a period of about 133 days. The metallicity is sub-solar, indicating it has a lower abundance of heavy elements compared to the Sun. It is radiating just 0.5% of the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at an effective temperature of around 3,202 K.

## Search for planets

In June 2019, a candidate exoplanet in orbit around Gliese 754 was reported in a preprint. It was detected using the Doppler method and is orbiting at a distance of 0.28 AU with a period of 78 days. The orbit is essentially circular, to within the margin of error. The habitable zone for this star ranges from 0.05 AU to 0.14 AU; inside the orbit of this proposed companion. However, a 2024 study could not confirm any planet around this star. A 77-day signal was detected, similar to the orbital period of this putative planet, but this may be caused by stellar activity.
# Baldassare Longhena

Baldassare Longhena (1598 – 18 February 1682) was an Italian architect, who worked mainly in Venice, where he was one of the greatest exponents of Baroque architecture of the period. His style is characterized by monumentality, skillful use of light and shadow, and an understanding of Venetian aesthetics.

## Biography

Born in Venice to his father Melchisedecco, a stone-carver who contrived to have Longhena study under the architect Vincenzo Scamozzi. After Scamozzi's death Longhena completed his monumental Procuratie Nuove in St. Mark's Square, a complex of imposing residences and offices for officials of the Venetian Republic that gives the square its appearance today.
His best-known work is the elegantly decorated Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute begun in 1631 to thank the Virgin for the city's deliverance from the plague. This two domed church on the peninsula between the Canal Grande and the Zattere is one of the city's best-known landmarks. The main entrance, modeled on the Roman triumphal arch, was later copied in successive churches and cathedrals, in Venice and elsewhere.
Between 1641 and 1680 he designed the new library, the grand staircase, the monastery façade, the Novitiate building, the sick-room and the guest-rooms of the Monastery of San Giorgio Maggiore.
He designed many other churches in the city, among them the Chiesa dell'Ospedaletto and Santa Maria di Nazareth built between 1656 and 1680, although the façade of the latter church was designed by Giuseppe Sardi (1624–1699). He also designed the Palazzo Belloni Battagia and the Palazzo Giustiniani Lolin, both facing the Canal Grande.
One of his largest designs was the Chioggia Cathedral, executed between 1624 and 1647. On the completion of the cathedral he designed two other palaces on the Grand Canal of Venice, Ca' Rezzonico and Ca' Pesaro, both completed after his death. He potentially made additions or modifications to the Palazzo Vidiman, Palazzo Moro in San Canciano, and the façade of San Zaccaria on the Rio della Pietà.
Baldassare Longhena died at his home in Corte Rotto at San Severo in 1682. He was named Master Builder of the Republic of Venice during his time.

## Critical reception

Longhena developed the style of his master Vincenzo Scamozzi and Andrea Palladio. As Branko Mitrović states in his book on renaissance architecture: "Scamozzi...adjusted the central intercolumnation of the main portico so that the edges of columns can be seen from the end of a circular hall. Visually, this is a way to suggest from inside that there is another formal space beyond the entrance door... Baldassare Longhena used a similar system of non-orthogonal axes in Santa Maria della Salute in Venice. As with Palladio, it is unclear whether Longhena intended to form such visual axes or whether they are a by-product of his complex geometries."

# Cogmagun, Nova Scotia

Cogmagun (/ˈkɒɡməɡən/) is an unincorporated community in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia, located in West Hants Regional Municipality in Hants County. Its name is derived from the Mi'kmaq word "Kogumegunuk" or "Kookemagun", which is thought to have meant "the crooked river". Another variation of the name was "Coquemegonde". The name of the community was changed to Hillford in 1895, however the original name remained in popular use.
The land in the area was granted to the settlers of Newport township in 1761, and is thought to have been settled before 1800. St. Mark's Anglican church was erected in Cogmagun in 1850, but was not consecrated until May 31st, 1863. A post office was established in the community on July 1st, 1866, with C. Thomas as the postmaster.
