# WYDN

WYDN (channel 48) is a religious television station licensed to Lowell, Massachusetts, United States, broadcasting the Daystar Television Network to the Boston area. It is owned and operated by the Educational Public TV Corporation, a subsidiary of Daystar sister company Word of God Fellowship, Inc. WYDN's studios are co-located with those of local public access channel Dedham TV on Sprague Street in Dedham, and it shares transmitter facilities with Concord, New Hampshire–licensed Ion Television station WPXG-TV (channel 21) on Fort Mountain near Epsom, New Hampshire.

## History

The station first signed on the air on May 5, 1999, as an affiliate of Prime Time Christian Broadcasting (now God's Learning Channel) as a straight simulcast of KMLM in Odessa, Texas. Originally licensed to Worcester, Massachusetts, WYDN operated its analog transmitter atop Asnebumskit Hill in Paxton (a site which is and has been used by Worcester area FM and TV stations since FM pioneer Edwin Howard Armstrong erected the tower in the 1940s) until the June 12, 2009, digital transition; its digital transmitter operated from the WBZ-TV tower in Needham. By the early 2000s, the station switched to Daystar after it was acquired by its Word of God Fellowship, Inc. licensing subsidiary, and Daystar immediately pushed for successful must-carry carriage from local cable providers.
WYDN sold its frequency rights as part of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)'s 2017 spectrum incentive auction and reached a channel sharing agreement with Ion Television O&O WPXG-TV; it began broadcasting from WPXG's transmitter on April 23, 2018. As WPXG's broadcasting radius does not cover Worcester, WYDN changed its city of license to Lowell, Massachusetts.

The tenement has three floors over a raised basement, with a flight of steps up to the front doors. Every individual building has three doors. A center door leads to the close and staircase. The two outer doors are for the main door flats which originally had two floors, the ground floor and basement. Around the basement areas there are cast iron railings with arcaded detailing.
The most prominent features of the facade are the twinned square bay windows in Walmer Crescent proper, rising from the basement past the first floor, providing a balcony for the top floor flats. The main elevation of the building curves gently around the crescent.
The terminal pavilion at the western end is angular; in contrast, the one between the Walmer Crescent and Cessnock Street sections has a curved mock-turret.
There is a row of single story shops where the front gardens used to be. The shops were built in 1907/08 and originally had decorative balustrading running along their length.
The Alexander 'Greek' Thomson Society is based at number 7 Walmer Crescent. Cessnock station on the Glasgow Subway, is located beneath the tenement and opened in 1896.

# Walter and Sylvia Stockmayer House

The Walter and Sylvia Stockmayer House is a historic house at 48 Overlook Drive in Norwich, Vermont. Built in 1961 to a design by Allan Gelbin, it is one of the town's finer examplers of Usonian Mid-Century Modern architecture, a style espoused by Frank Lloyd Wright that is also relatively rare in the state. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 2020.

## Description and history

The Stockmayer House is located in a rural setting north of the village center of Norwich, on about 3 acres (1.2 ha) on the north side of Willey Hill Road. The house is set near the north end of the property, with the terrain sloping gradually to the south. This area is primarily meadow, opening views from the house to the surrounding countryside. The house is a single-story construction, with an irregularly but roughly rectangular footprint. It is built with wood framing on a concrete foundation, its exterior finished in board-and-batten siding with metal-framed glass. It has a flat roof finished in membrane, except for a central low-pitch gable finished in glass, providing skylit illumination into the house's interior. An open carport extends to the right of the main structure. The southern facade of the house is primarily glass, with a deep overhanging eave providing shade from the summer heat. A designed patio landscape extends further to the south. The interior of the house retains many original features and finished.
The house was built in 1961 for Walter and Sylvia Stockmayer; he had then recently accepted a professorship at Dartmouth College in nearby Hanover, New Hampshire. The house was designed by Allan Gelbin, a protégé of Frank Lloyd Wright who was then in the early years of a productive career. The Stockmayers, seeking a modern design for their home, were connected to Gelbin by Lucille Zimmerman, who owned a Wright-designed house in Manchester, New Hampshire. Gelbin later described the work on designing and building the house as being highly influential on his subsequent work.
# Walter S. Jarboe

Walter S. Jarboe (c. 1829 – March 12, 1865) was an American militia leader and perpetrator of massacres against the Yuki people during the California genocide.

## Round Valley Massacres

Tensions between settlers and the local Yuki population simmered for years before the Conquest of California. Before California was admitted to the United States, a steep decline in the California Indian population occurred under Spanish and later Mexican rule.

### Governor approval for Yuki massacres

An early settler to California after the Mexican–American War, Jarboe petitioned Governor John B. Weller to eradicate the Yukis of Mendocino County. Weller gave Jarboe official permission to launch an eradication campaign, after United States Army officers refused.

### "Jarboe's War"

With Governor Weller's permission, Jarboe established the Eel River Rangers in Mendocino to harass and murder local Yukis in July 1859. Jarboe wrote to Governor Weller, "However cruel it may be ... nothing short of extermination will suffice to rid the Country of [the Yuki]."
Jarboe's Eel River Rangers slaughtered at least 283 Yuki, not counting women and children. Additionally, at least 292 Yuki were forcibly deported to Mendocino Indian Reservation. By 1860, the Yuki population of Mendocino fell 80%.
In 1860, the Eel River Rangers were disbanded after largely depopulating the Yuki in Mendocino.

## Condemnation of Jarboe

In 1860, a Joint Special Committee of the California State Legislature was called to investigate the Mendocino War. The special committee voted 4–1 in favor of condemning the slaughter and deportation of the Yuki. Criticizing Jarboe, the committee commented "We are unwilling to attempt to dignify, by the term 'war' as slaughter of beings, who at least possess human form, and who make no resistance, and make no attacks, either on the person or residence of the citizen."
The 1860 report fell on deaf ears and supporters of Jarboe prevented its reading before the California State Legislature. Representative Joseph Lamar of Mendocino dissented on the report and instead praised Jarboe.
# Waltraud Klasnic

Waltraud Klasnic (née Tschiltsch, born 27 October 1945) is an Austrian politician who was Landeshauptfrau (governor) of Styria from 1996 until 2005.

## Politics

Klasnic joined the women's organisation of the Austrian People's Party (ÖVP) in 1970. She was appointed to the Federal Council in 1977, remaining a member until 1981 when she was elected to the Styrian Landtag.
After the previous Landeshauptmann of Styria Josef Krainer junior resigned due to a disappointing election performance, Klasnic was elected as his successor by the Landtag on 23 January 1996. She was the first, and at the time only, female governor of any Austrian state.
Following a loss in the October 2005 Styrian state election Klasnic resigned from the state government. Originally she intended to remain chairperson of the ÖVP in Styria, but lack of support forced her to relinquish this position as well.
Klasnic was considered a possible candidate in the 2010 Austrian presidential election, but she declined to run.

## Personal life

Klasnic was born in 1945 in Graz and adopted shortly after birth. She grew up in poor conditions.
In 2010 Klasnic became victims' advocate for the Catholic Church sexual abuse cases in Austria, leading a commission tasked with investigating reported incidents and compensating victims. Critics expressed doubts over her independence because she had been appointed by the Catholic Church.
Klasnic was appointed to a similar role by the Austrian Ski Association (ÖSV) in 2017 after allegations of abuse in the organisation, related to the Me Too movement, were widely publicised.

# Waltham-on-the-Wolds railway station

Waltham on the Wolds railway station was a railway station at the end of the Waltham Branch, serving the village of Waltham on the Wolds, Leicestershire. The Waltham Branch was built by the Great Northern Railway from the Great Northern and London and North Western Joint Railway at Scalford to exploit ironstone deposits in the area.
The station opened in April 1883 but never had a regular passenger train service, which was confirmed in the edition of The Railway Magazine published in May 1932.
Instead, it was used only for specials bringing visitors to Waltham Fair or to race meetings at Croxton Park until at least 1907 or 1906.
The Eaton Branch Railway began at "Eaton Junction" immediately south of the station. It served the ironstone quarries that surrounded the village of Eaton.
From 1916 to 1918, the line was used for military specials serving Harrowby Army Camp, after which it was used for freight or occasional enthusiast specials, until completely closed in 1964.
