# William Moore Jr. House

The William Moore Jr. House is a historic house at 5 Mountain Road in the Riverton village of Barkhamsted, Connecticut. Built about 1820, it is a good local example of Federal period architecture in brick, and is notable for its association with the Moore family, where both the father and son were involved in the early chair-making trade for which Riverton is well known. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.

## Description and history

The William Moore Jr. House is located behind the Old Riverton Inn in the village of Riverton, on the south side of Mountain Road, a dead-end residential street running east from River Road. It is a 2+1⁄2-story brick building, with a gable roof. The bricks are laid in common bond, and are painted white. The main entrance is in the short northwest-facing facade, which is three bays wide. The entrance is in the rightmost bay, in a recess with frame surround. The gable above has a semi-elliptical window. The interior retains a significant amount of original Federal period woodwork, including fireplace mantels and main staircase.
William Moore Sr. arrived in Riverton in the 1780s, and was one of several individuals engaged in the chair manufacturing trade. He notably worked with Lambert Hitchcock, whose stenciled and painted chairs gained renown. Moore and his son, William Moore Jr., both may have been involved in supplying Hitchcock with either parts or finished chairs that were sold under the Hitchcock name. Examples of work unambiguously identified as the work of either Moore are rare, with only a few pieces in museums. William Moore Jr. built this house about 1820, on property acquired from his father. It is known that his shop was also on the property, but no traces of it survive.
# Walter Podbielniak

Walter Joseph Podbielniak (1899-1978), known as 'Dr Pod' was an American chemist, chemical engineer, and inventor of centrifugal devices for distillation and liquid-liquid contacting used in the petroleum industry and the production of penicillin.

## Life

Podbielniak was born Władisław Josef Podbielniak March 13, 1899, to Polish immigrant parents in Buffalo, New York, and graduated in Analytical Chemistry at Buffalo University in 1920. He first worked as an analytical chemist for the National Aniline and Chemical Company, then went to study chemical engineering at the University of Michigan, receiving a BSc in 1923. He stayed on to do research on distillation in association with Phillips Petroleum Company, earning a PhD entitled Vaporization of Complex Mixtures in 1928.
On June 18, 1928, he married chemist Władzia Gajda.
His PhD equipment was the basis for a commercial analytical device to fractionate petroleum, which he patented, and he and his wife sold to the expanding petroleum industry. Two models covered low (–180 to +100 °C) and high temperature (0 to +300 °C). In 1934, they set up a company Podbielniak Inc. to sell them and offer analytical and consultancy services. They produced automatic versions of their fractionator, and expanded into analytical gas chromatography.
For the low temperature fractional distillation apparatus, Podbielniak received the Hanlon Award of the National Gasoline Association of America in 1951, which was said to be "the most valuable single tool in the analysis of gas and liquid hydrocarbons ... familiarly known as the ‘Pod column’ in practically every oil company plant and laboratory,"
In the 1930s they published a series of patents for centrifugal devices for both fractional distillation and for liquid-liquid extraction. The Podbielniak Contactor for liquid-liquid extraction was particularly successful and important in the production of penicillin during World War II.
In 1961 Podbielniak Inc. was taken over by Dresser Industries
In 1959 the couple divorced, and in 1966 he married Nancy Bruce.
He died 13 December 1978 in Rancho Santa Fe, California.

# Rostbrätel

A Rostbrätel is a marinated cutlet of pork neck, that's grilled over charcoal. It is, after the Thuringian sausage (Rostbratwurst), the second-most popular Thuringian specialty.
The label "Rostbrätel" is common in West Thuringia and South Thuringia.
For preparation, about an inch cut of pork neck cutlet (with or without bone) is pressed (tenderized) and marinated in salt, pepper, mustard, onions and beer for two to up to 24 hours. In some recipes, garlic and Caraway Seed are added as further spices.
Cooking is done on a charcoal grill. The grates are greased with pork fat, bacon, oil, butter or cooking spray in order to prevent sticking. While the meat is gently cooked over light to medium heat, it is basted after every turn with the marinade or with beer, sprayed directly from a gently shaken bottle. This serves to improve the taste and prevents a drying of the meat on the cooking surface. Moreover, the cooking temperature is regulated by gently spraying beer directly on the charcoal; the rising steam helps to cook and flavour the meat.
It is served with caramelized onions and a good German beer.

# Royal City Roller Derby

Royal City Roller Derby (RCRD) is a women's flat track roller derby league based in Guelph, Ontario. Founded in 2010, the league consists of three teams, plus two travel teams which compete against teams from other leagues. Royal City is a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association (WFTDA).

## History

Royal City was founded as Royal City Roller Girls in April 2010, and initially trained at West End Rec Centre. By August, it had already grown to forty skaters, but was hit when its practice venue closed. Despite this, the league played its first season in 2011, contesting five bouts, and hosted the Roller Derby Association of Canada Eastern tournament in 2012.
In November 2016, it was announced that Royal City was launching a junior roller derby program in early 2017, geared towards girls between the ages of 9 and 17.
The league's logo and those of its various teams were designed by the cartoonist Seth.
In April 2018, Royal City announced on their social media pages a rebrand as Royal City Roller Derby, and would be updating their logo as well.

## WFTDA competition

In October 2013, Royal City was accepted as a member of the Women's Flat Track Derby Association Apprentice Program, and became a full member in December 2014. In 2018, Royal City qualified for the first WFTDA Continental Cup, the 2018 North America East edition in Kalamazoo, Michigan, at which they were the seventh seed.
