# John T. Blake

John Twiss Blake (c. 1901 – June 26, 1987) was an American research scientist at the Simplex Wire and Cable company. in Boston, Massachusetts who, along with Charles R. Boggs, found that proteins present in natural rubber were responsible for water absorption. Blake and Boggs showed that the proteins could be isolated by repeated centrifugal action on liquid latex. In 1926 Simplex applied for a patent on the deproteinized rubber. This became the basis for a new product family of lightweight, moisture-proof Anhydrex-insulated power and communication cables. He made significant contributions to understanding various degradation mechanisms of rubber, including the effects of water absorption, exposure to light, ozone, and microbes.
Blake was born and educated in Boston. He graduated from Tufts College with honors in 1921 with a bachelor of science degree in chemical engineering and from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1924 with a doctorate in organic chemistry and chemical engineering. His doctoral advisor was James F. Norris, and the title of his thesis was Rates of reaction of certain organic chlorine compounds.
After obtaining his doctoral degree, he worked at Simplex Wire and Cable Co., starting as a research chemist and eventually serving as senior vice president. Blake was an organizer and chairman of the Boston Rubber Group.
In 1953, Blake received the Charles Goodyear Medal.
Blake later received an honorary doctor of science degree from Tufts University in 1956, and a degree in advanced management.
He died on 26 June 1987 at age 86 in Hyannis, Massachusetts after a brief illness.
# Dave Sutton (footballer, born 1957)

David William Sutton (born 21 January 1957) is an English former professional footballer who played in the Football League for Plymouth Argyle, Reading, Huddersfield Town, Bolton Wanderers and Rochdale. He later became a manager.
Despite being born in Tarleton near Preston in Lancashire Sutton began as an apprentice with Plymouth Argyle. He made 61 appearances at centre half plus 9 on loan at Reading before a transfer to Huddersfield Town under Mick Buxton in 1978. This was a highly successful move as Sutton moved up with them from the Fourth Division to the top half of the Second in the early 1980s. Mick Buxton later listed him as one of his best ever signings. After six years and 242 appearances he moved to then Third Division Bolton Wanderers where he made 98 appearances over four seasons experiencing relegation through the play-offs in 1986/87, then promotion in 1987/88.
After his release that summer he signed for Rochdale as team captain and helped the club improve under Danny Bergara after a shaky start. However just after Christmas he was advised to give up playing or risk severe back problems. Bergara retained his services as club physio then he became caretaker-manager for three games (all defeats) before Terry Dolan was appointed. Dolan also kept him on and indeed offered him a position at Hull City when he changed clubs in 1990/91. Sutton was the only member of Dolan's team to decline the offer and became caretaker for the rest of the season which was effectively over.
Sutton was finally given a permanent appointment that summer and crucially, permission to spend the bulk of the £200,000 received from the sale of goalkeeper Keith Welch which meant a mass clear out and the arrival of players such as record signing Andy Flounders and inspirational defender Alan Reeves.
Sutton's adventurous style was a clear break from the defensive-minded Dolan and Rochdale just missed out on a play-off place in 1991/92. The following season they slipped back slightly. In 1993/94 Dale again missed out on the play-offs on the last day of the season.
Expensive signings such as Paul Williams and Darren Oliver had not been successful and Reeves and goalkeeper Martin Hodge left the club. Sutton did not replace them quickly enough and after a run of heavy defeats he left the club by mutual consent at the end of November 1994.
Despite being linked to a vacancy at Northampton Town Sutton's next job was as manager of ambitious non-league club Chorley F.C. He resigned the post after 18 months, citing work commitments with the market gardening business he ran in partnership with his father.

# El castillo de los monstruos

El castillo de los monstruos ('The Castle of the Monsters') is a 1958 Mexican horror comedy directed by Julián Soler.
In the film, a mad scientist named after Sputnik uses hypnosis to convert a seamstress into his lover. The seamstress' previous love interest enters the mad scientist's castle to rescue the damsel in distress. He has to face the castle's monsters, including look-alikes of the Frankenstein Monster and Count Dracula.

## Plot

Mexican funnyman, El Clavillazo, is in love with a seamstress named Beatriz and also hangs out with a variety of odd characters, including a newsboy and a mental patient.
Meanwhile, a mad scientist named Dr. Sputnik and his scarred, hunchbacked assistant are busy making monsters at the nearby castle. The doctor poses as a kindly blind man in town and uses hypnosis to lure Beatriz to his castle, brainwashing her into believing that she is his own love and that she is named Galatea.
El Clavillazo, with an assist from his friends, blunders his way into the castle, where he spends most of his time being chased around by various monsters. There is the butler, who looks like the Frankenstein Monster. The other monsters include a werewolf, a mummy, a vampire (clearly modeled after Count Dracula), and a gill-man (clearly patterned after Creature from the Black Lagoon). There is also another unidentified monster being kept in a cell (why it is not allowed to run free with the rest is unknown; the creature is referred to as a “gorilla” in some reviews, however, it appears to be more of a humanoid ape-like creature, perhaps based on Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde).
In the end, El Clavillazo manages to defeat the monsters, mostly by luck, and to rescue the girl. A chemical in Sputnik’s lab devolves the gill-man into a big fish, the werewolf is choked out by the monster in the cell (perhaps that is why he was kept behind bars), Frankenstein accidentally electrocutes himself by grabbing a power cable in the lab and turns into cogs and clock-parts, the mummy falls into a pit of alligators and is devoured, and the vampire vanishes when the sun rises. Dr. Sputnik has the usual falling out that all mad scientists seem to eventually have with their deformed assistants (usually due to the scientist mistreating his assistant, or the assistant developing a crush on a girl the scientist has designs on, or sometimes a combination of both), resulting in his being shot after he stabs the scarred hunchback.
Clavillazo and Beatriz are trapped in a room and about to be crushed by the walls moving together when they are rescued in the nick of time by the rest of the gang, and they all live happily ever after.

# The Last Day (novel)

The Last Day (Welsh: Y Dydd Olaf) is a Welsh science fiction novel by Owain Owain, written in 1968 and first published in 1976. It was significantly revised and reprinted until the definitive version in 2021. It was also published in Cornish (2020), English (2024) and Polish (2025). It is one of the most famous novels in the Welsh language. In October 2014, the novel gave great influence to inspire singer Gwenno Saunders to compose and publish the music album with the same name; the album received critical acclaim and was chosen by Allmusic as one of the best Indie Records of 2015. London's Loud and Quiet called it the second best album of 2015.

## Writing and publication

In an introduction to the novel, Welsh literary critic Pennar Davies said, "Nothing like this book has been seen in our language before, nor anything similar in any language. We rejoice that this kind of brilliance is possible in the Welsh language". It is described by Wales Literature Exchange as "...a science fiction cult classic...".

## Adaptions and translations

The 2020 translation into Cornish was written by Sam Brown, as an ebook, free of charge. In July 2021 a reprint was published in Welsh by Gwasg y Bwthyn, Caernarfon after the book had been out of print for almost 50 years. However, the cover was changed into a new version. In 2024 the English version was published by Parthian Books, translated by Emyr Wallace Humphreys. In the same year a Polish version of The Last Day was published by Melin Papur Books and Olga Geppert-Biernat, translated by Marta Listewnik.

## Themes

The primary theme explores the concept of technological dominance over humanity. This topic has become highly relevant in recent years, as the capacity of artificial intelligence continues to expand exponentially year by year. The pressing question remains: will humanity be able to control this advancing technology, or will we be controlled by it?
Other significant scientific themes include the development of complete diet pellets that can provide all necessary nutrition, the creation of androids and clones, neutral-gendered humans, and the exploration of transhumanism. Additionally, eco-fascism and the concept of reducing the population for the benefit of the planet, along with examining the limits of computer processing power are important discussions within the novel.

## Characters

* Marc is a young man whose excerpts from diaries and letters show how society slips into the grip of a fascist, totalitarian government. Every now and then Marc slips into the synthetic language of the Brotherhood: 'Fratolish Hiang Perpeski'. This shows the effectiveness of the conditioning he is trying to escape from. The novel is a stark warning of the silent, effective indoctrination by the media and government, by molding the rich diversity of language and cultures into a grey, uniform body.

# Paramount Theater (Springfield, Massachusetts)

The Paramount Theater (formerly known as Julia Sanderson Theater and The Hippodrome) is an historic theater located at 1676-1708 Main Street in Springfield, Massachusetts. Built in 1926 out of part of the grand Massasoit House hotel at a cost of over $1 million, the Paramount Theater was the most ornate picture palace in Western Massachusetts. As of 2011, The Paramount is in the midst of a $1.725 million renovation to once again become a theater after decades as a disco and concert hall, (the Hippodrome), when it was the center of Springfield's club scene. In 2018 the building's owners, the New England Farm Workers Council, announced plans to redevelop it in tandem with a new adjacent hotel building. In a push to renovate the Paramount along with Holyoke's Victory Theater, in October 2018, the administration of Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker announced a $2.5 million grant to assist the project, on top of a $4 million federal loan guarantee. However, the New England Farm Workers Council would subsequently announced plans to sell the building on July 30, 2024. An auction was slated for August 20 of that year before being delayed to September 23.

## History

From 1926 until the 1960s, The Paramount changed names several times—including a brief stint as the Julia Sanderson Theater, honoring a famous actress from Springfield. However, it remained a movie theater until the 1960s, when it began to find use as a mixed use venue for movies, rock concerts, and other live performances. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
In 1999, the venue was purchased and restored by Steven Stein and Michael Barrasso of Paramount Realty Investment LLC/Creative Theater Concepts. At that time, it was turned into a lavish nightclub and performance space. The venue's main floor seats were removed; however, the 1,100 balcony seats were retained and restored. The theater underwent a $1.3 million renovation in 1999, and was reopened as the Hippodrome. The original organ was restored and the marquee was changed to reflect the theater's new name.
The Hippodrome became a popular nightclub and concert venue during the 2000s. In 2011, the theater was purchased by the New England Farm Worker's Council. As of 2011, the Paramount Theater is in the midst of a $1.725 million renovation to once again become a theater and performance space.
