# Hugh Pond

Hubert "Hugh" Charles Pond (22 February 1923 – 19 December 2014) was an officer in the British Army Parachute Regiment, who won the Military Cross during a daring attack on the Merville battery in Normandy on D-Day.
Pond was later mentioned in despatches for his service with the Commonwealth Division in Korea.
After leaving the Army, Pond became the military correspondent of the Daily Express and, in 1961 joined the Tupperware Company where he became a senior executive.
# Time lock

A time lock (also timelock) is a part of a locking mechanism commonly found in bank vaults and other high-security containers. The time lock is a timer designed to prevent the opening of the safe or vault until it reaches the preset time, even if the correct lock combination(s) are employed.
Time locks are mounted on the inside of a safe's or vault's door. Usually there are three time locks on a door. The first one to reach 0 will allow access in to the vault; the other two are for backup purposes.
Time locks were originally created to prevent criminals from kidnapping and torturing the person(s) who knows the combination, and then using the extracted information to later burgle the safe or vault, or to stop entry by authorized staff at unauthorized times.
An early test of their effectiveness came on May 29, 1875 in Great Barrington, Massachusetts, when a gang of robbers took the family of banker Frederick N. Deland hostage, demanding that he open the vault of the Grand Mahawie Bank. They were thwarted by a time lock which had been installed only a few days earlier, and left without harming the captives.
Modern electronic time locks have some functions not available to mechanical time locks, like resettable timers and pre-set times to activate.
# Schwedenhöhlen (Rohrwald)

The Schwedenhöhlen, or "Swedish Caves," or "Swedish Holes," are man-made caves located in the Rohrwald forest within the municipality of Harmannsdorf, Weinviertel, Lower Austria. These caves were primarily excavated into the loess soil during the 16th and 17th centuries and have served various purposes throughout history.

### Historical Significance

The name "Schwedenhöhlen" originates from the Thirty Years' War period when local populations sought refuge within these caves from Swedish forces under General Lennart Torstensson, who captured the nearby town of Korneuburg in 1645. However, the caves are believed to be older, having also provided shelter during earlier conflicts involving Hussites, Turks, and Hungarians. They continued to serve as sanctuaries during the Napoleonic Wars in 1809 and even in the final weeks of World War II in 1945, offering protection to civilians from advancing Soviet troops.

### Description and Features

The caves are notable for their interior features, which include intricately designed niches, small chambers, and seating benches. One particular cave boasts a dome-like room adorned with seating niches and a decorated pillar. Over time, natural erosion and human activities have led to the deterioration of some entrances. Notably, in the 1970s, efforts to make the caves more accessible to tourists involved enlarging the typically small entrances, inadvertently accelerating erosion and contributing to their decline.

### Ownership and Protection

Today, the caves are under the ownership of the forestry administration of the Klosterneuburg Abbey.

### Cultural Impact

The Schwedenhöhlen have also found a place in contemporary culture. They are a central element in the plot of Johannes Grenzfurthner's 2022 horror film Razzennest, which was entirely filmed in the Rohrwald region.

# Whipstaff

A whipstaff is a steering device that was used on European sailing ships from the 14th to the 18th century. Its development preceded the invention of the more complex ship's wheel and followed the simple use of a tiller to control the steering of a ship underway.
In a typical arrangement, an iron gooseneck was fitted at the fore end of the tiller. Then, a metal ring was fitted over this and secured with a pin. The ring was attached to a long, thin pole (the whipstaff proper) and this pole connected the tiller to the helmsman one or more decks above it through a pivot point, roll, or rowle, described as "that round piece of wood or iron wherein the whip doth go and is made turn about that it may carry over the whip from side to side with more ease."$^{:p.173}$ The helmsman himself still usually did not stand on the topmost deck, but rather viewed what lay ahead of the ship through a small port or hatchway in the deck above him called a companion. To move the ship to port, the forward-facing helmsman pulled the top of the staff to his left and pushed the pole down and to the right; to move it to starboard, he pulled the top to his right and pushed the pole down and to the left. In this fashion, the tiller might get as much as 20° of turn though angles of between 5° and 10° seem more likely. The tiller rested on a very strong horizontal wooden bar called the tiller sweep, which was sheathed in metal and coated with soap and grease to minimize the drag of the tiller as it rode across it.
# Raphael Semmes House

The Raphael Semmes House, (also known as the Horta–Semmes House), is a historic residence at 804 Government Street in Mobile, Alabama. It is best known as the 1871-1877 home of Raphael Semmes, captain of the Confederate States Navy sloop-of-war CSS Alabama, a commerce raider during the American Civil War. The 1858 brick townhouse of Federal and Greek Revival styles of architecture, was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 26, 1970.

## History

The house was designed and built by its first owner, Peter Horta, in 1858. The structure was purchased in 1871 by the citizens of Mobile and presented to Semmes, who lived there until his death in 1877.
Several decades, owners, and residents later, Joseph Linyer Bedsole and his wife purchased and restored the townhouse. On April 22, 1946, they donated it to the adjacent First Baptist Church of Mobile in memory of their son, Lt. Joseph Linyer Bedsole Jr. of the United States Army Air Forces, who was killed in action over Nazi Germany in Europe during World War II.

## Architecture

The two-story, white-painted brick townhouse is in a simple Federal-style architecture, with an added Greek Revival-style doorway and surround. The front (south) facade has a full-width cast iron porch across the ground floor, added in the 1870s. The ironwork has a floral design motif. Built on a narrow city lot, the house is deeper than it is wide. The main body of the house measures about 30 feet (9.1 m) wide by 40 feet (12 m) deep. A two-story rear ell addition is attached to the northwest corner of the main house and measures about 15 feet (4.6 m) wide by 27 feet (8.2 m) deep, extending the depth of the house to 67 feet (20 m). The ell served as the service wing and was fronted on the courtyard side by wooden porch and balcony galleries on both floors that adjoined the matching rear galleries of the main house.
The interior layout has a stair hall on the west side of the house, on both floors. The stairway is mahogany with turned spindles. The stair hall opens onto a parlor and dining room on the first floor and three bedrooms on the second floor. The parlor and dining room retain their original fireplace mantles of cut-and-polished black marble. The ell contains a kitchen and storage room on the first floor and two servant rooms on the second.

You Don't Have to be Jewish is a 1965 comedy album written by Bob Booker and George Foster, the team behind the 1962 comedy album The First Family.

## Production

The album features Lou Jacobi, Betty Walker, Jack Gilford, Joe Silver, Jackie Kannon, Bob McFadden, Frank Gallop, and Arlene Golonka, in a variety of roles, mostly Jewish, performing a mixture of jokes and comedy sketches. The album was recorded with a live audience, as the cast performed a script, like a radio play.

## Reception

The album was highly successful, with syndicated columnist Walter Winchell calling the album "the No. 1 seller in Suburbia" and noting that as a popular gift "it has replaced the fountain pen at Bar Mitzvahs."

## Sequels

A sequel, When You're in Love, the Whole World is Jewish, largely reunited the original cast but replaced the unavailable Golonka with her roommate, Valerie Harper.
One of the successful highlights from the sequel album was the "Ballad of Irving", narrated by Frank Gallop, about a Jewish Western non-hero, who was the "142nd Fastest Gun In the West". It became very popular on Dr. Demento.
Another sequel album was called "The Yiddish Are Coming. The Yiddish Are Coming", which was released after the success of the 1967 Six Day War, where Israel scored several massive victories over Egypt, Jordan, and Syria. Several of the skits dealt with Jewish jokes about the recent war, as well as the issues involving the generation gaps between the old and the new.

## Name

"You Don't Have to be Jewish to love Levy's" was an advertising campaign for Levy's rye bread that began in 1961 and ran through the 1970s.
# The Residency, Lucknow

The Residency, also called as the British Residency and Residency Complex, is a group of several buildings in a common precinct in the city of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India. It served as the residence for the British Resident General who was a representative in the court of the Nawab of Awadh. The Residency of Lucknow, one of the Residencies of British India, is located in the heart of the city, in the vicinity of other monuments like Shaheed Smarak, Tehri Kothi and the High Court Building.

## History

In 1775 Nawab Asaf-ud-Daulah moved the capital of Oudh from Faizabad to Lucknow. The Residency was constructed between 1780 and 1800. Construction started during the rule of Asaf-ud-Daula and ended during the rule of Saadat Ali Khan II, who was the fifth Nawab of Oudh.
Between 1 July 1857 and 17 November 1857, the Residency was subject to the Siege of Lucknow, part of the Indian Rebellion of 1857. Lucknow was recaptured by the East India Company in March 1858. The Residency suffered extensive damage during the fighting, and has been in ruins ever since.

## Architecture

The Residency has been maintained as it was at the time of the final relief during the Siege of Lucknow, and the shattered walls are still scarred by cannon shot. Ever since Indian Independence, little has changed. The ruined building is now surrounded by lawns and flowerbeds and serves as a tourist attraction. The cemetery at the nearby ruined church has the graves of 2,000 men, women and children, including that of Sir Henry Montgomery Lawrence who died during the siege. There is a weathered epitaph near the grave of Sir Henry that reads "Here lies the son of Empire who tried to do his duty" while another nearby grave reads "Do not weep my children, for I am not dead, but am sleeping here." A light and sound show to display the history of the Residency is also played each evening.
# Summer Day

Amar Too from AOL Music said that "'Summer Day' might just be the perfect, flagship single for your summer night drives, or evenings spent in your favorite rocking chair on the patio. . . . The track is guaranteed to provide that extra dose of summertime easiness we're all looking forward to". Jonathan Keefe from Slant Magazine classified the song as "an effortlessness song that is instantly likable and effervescent". The song was A-listed on BBC Radio 2 for the week commencing July 3.
"Summer Day" charted moderately in the United States, peaking at No. 3 on the Triple A chart and at No. 23 on the Hot AC chart, remaining in the chart for twelve non-consecutive weeks. However, the song met with success in Japan, where it peaked in the top 10.

## Music video

The music video for the song was shot in Nashville, and was released on July 14, 2010 on VEVO and was directed by Wayne Isham. Sheryl Crow commented that "[Her] friend Keith Megna made an amazing 'Summer Day' video for us – inspired by a great day in Central Park and our actual studio recording of the song."

### Concept

The video captures people enjoying the summer are flashed while Crow delivers a groovy performance. Some are playing hula hoops and the others are either sitting on a bench while listening to music or canoeing in the lake nearby.

It is said to be one of the few surviving wood framed lighthouses left on Lake Superior. The complex includes a square tower rising up from the attached Lighthouse keeper's quarters, a brick fog signal building, frame barn, brick oil house, boathouse, two outhouses, and a dock.
The light was automated in 1947 and was later transferred to the National Park Service as part of the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore. It is a contributing property of the Apostle Islands Lighthouses and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977. It is also listed in the Library of Congress Historic American Buildings Survey, WI-312. The original Fresnel lens is on display at the Madeline Island Historical Museum.
