# Mel Nott

Melvyn Ernest John Nott OBE (born 1942) is a Welsh politician who was a county councillor in Bridgend County Borough. He was leader of Bridgend County Borough Council between 2008 and 2016.

## Background

Following a split in the Sarn and Bryncethin Labour Party in 1991, the sitting councillor for the St Brides Minor ward, Mel Winter, was deselected in favour of Mel Nott for the 1991 Ogwr Borough Council election. Winter stood as an independent candidate and retained the seat, with Nott losing out by 150 votes. Nott was instead elected as a councillor to Mid Glamorgan County Council in 1992, subsequently elected to Bridgend County Borough Council as a Labour councillor for St Brides Minor in 1995. He was elected unopposed to the new Sarn ward in 1999.
Following the May 2008 elections, in which Labour gained a majority on the council, Nott (as the Labour group leader) became leader of the council.
Nott was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 2013 New Year Honours, for services to the community and to Local Government.
After surviving a leadership challenge in May 2016, Nott announced in August 2016 he would be retiring as council leader in October of that year. He planned to step down as Sarn councillor at the May 2017 elections.

# Aldo Notari

Aldo Notari (September 6, 1932 – July 26, 2006) was an Italian baseball player and executive who served as president of the International Baseball Federation (IBAF) from 1993 to 2006. He is best known for the creation of the World Baseball Classic during his term. However, his tenure was also criticized for precipitating the removal of baseball from the Olympic Games.
Notari played 17 seasons as a second baseman for Parma, and was present when the first professional game in Italy was played in 1948. He later went on to act as president of the club, leading it to four Italian League titles and six European Cup championships. Notari succeeded Bruno Beneck as the president of the Italian Baseball Softball Federation (FIBS) in 1985, and became president of the European Amateur Baseball Confederation (CEBA) two years later.
After being elected president of the IBAF, Notari sought to increase the level of international tournaments by relaxing the restrictions on professional baseball players, starting with the 1998 Baseball World Cup in Italy. However, he failed to reach an agreement with Major League Baseball (MLB) and their Players Association (MLBPA), and was said to have a particularly acrimonious relationship with MLBPA president Donald Fehr. The difficulty in securing MLB players to play in high-level tournaments, along with doping concerns, contributed to the removal of baseball from the Olympic schedule in 2005

# Martin McDonogh

Martin McDonogh (1858 – 24 November 1934) was an Irish politician.

## Early life

Born in Gorumna, Connemara, to Thomas McDonogh and Honoria Hernon, McDonogh was the second son of six children who survived to adulthood. He was a cousin of the writer and journalist, Pádraic Ó Conaire. He was educated by the Jesuits at Coláiste Iognáid and later at St Stanislaus College in Tullabeg, County Offaly. He briefly studied law at University College Galway.

## Business career

McDonogh inherited his father's company, Thomas McDonogh & Sons, and expanded it to become one of the biggest employers in the province of Connacht. At its height, the company employed 700 people in an array of business ventures from a fertilizer factory to farming and electricity generation. A strict teetotaller, he never married.
McDonogh was known for being violently opposed to trade unions. He was the leader of the Galway Employers' Federation during the lockout of 1912 and the five-week general workers strike of 1913.

## Political career

McDonogh was first elected to Dáil Éireann as a Cumann na nGaedheal Teachta Dála (TD) for the Galway constituency at the June 1927 general election. He was re-elected at the September 1927 general election but lost his seat at the 1932 general election. He re-gained his seat at the 1933 general election, but died during the 8th Dáil in 1934. The by-election caused by his death was held on 19 June 1935 and was won by Eamon Corbett of Fianna Fáil.
He never married, and lived at Belmore, Salthill, County Galway, where he died on 24 November 1934. He was buried at Fonthill cemetery, Galway.
# Alabama Legislative Black Caucus v. Alabama

Alabama Legislative Black Caucus v. Alabama, 575 U.S. 254 (2015), was a U.S. Supreme Court decision that overturned a previous decision by a federal district court upholding Alabama's 2012 redrawing of its electoral districts. The Alabama legislature had focused on reducing the difference in population between the districts to 1% or less, while keeping the same proportion of minority voters in each district. The Alabama Legislative Black Caucus and Alabama Democratic Conference challenged this on the grounds that it was an illegal racial gerrymander, banned under the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.
The case went before a three-judge panel in federal district court. The panel characterized the arguments of the Caucus and the Conference as challenging the Alabama redistricting as a whole, with the Conference additionally challenging four specific Senate districts: 7, 11, 22, and 26. The panel held that the Caucus had standing for its claim, but dismissed the Conference's claims regarding both the state as a whole and the four districts. The Court further held that race was not the predominant factor for the redistricting as a whole or for the four districts. Finally, the panel held that, even if it was wrong and race was the predominant factor for the redistricting, the districts should still survive strict scrutiny because the act creating them was narrowly tailored to achieve the compelling state interest of avoiding racial retrogression which would prevent minority voters from electing their candidate of choice.
The Supreme Court, in a 5-4 opinion written by Justice Stephen Breyer, overturned the District Court decision. It held that racial gerrymandering claims must be considered district-by-district, rather than by looking at the state as a whole. The court may consider statewide evidence in evaluating these claims, but the complaint and remedy must concern a particular district or subset of districts. The opinion also held that the Conference had standing to bring its claims. The Court further held that equaling population between the districts is assumed to be a goal of any redistricting effort, and that a finding that the legislature was trying to equal the district population is not sufficient to dismiss claims that the legislature improperly considered race when drawing district lines. Finally, the Court rejected Alabama's claim that Section Five of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 compelled them to maintain the same percentage of minority voters in each district. Section Five only bars legislative action that would diminish the ability of a minority group to elect their candidate of choice. The Court then vacated the previous holding of the District Court and remanded the case for further consideration.

# Jackie Cain

Jacqueline Ruth Cain (May 22, 1928 – September 15, 2014) was an American jazz singer known for her partnership with her husband in the duo Jackie and Roy. She was the sister-in-law of singer Irene Kral.

## Life and career

Born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Cain was the daughter of an office furniture salesman who also managed a community theater. After her parents' divorce, she and her mother, who took a job with a photo-imaging company, moved to a rooming house. Cain first became interested in music through listening to the radio and performing in the chorus at her elementary school. While in high school she performed in an a cappella chorus during the school day and began performing on a children's radio show and with a band organized by a local music store in Milwaukee.
At the age of 17, Cain accepted her first full-time job in music as a singer with Jay Burkhart's band. In 1947, at the age of 19, she was introduced to Roy Kral by Bob Anderson, a fellow member of the Burkhart band. The couple soon began performing together in clubs in Chicago, and in 1949 they married. They recorded nearly forty albums for record labels such as Columbia and Verve.
Cain died at her home in Montclair, New Jersey, aged 86, on September 15, 2014, from complications of a stroke she suffered in 2010.

## Critical reception

Douglas Martin of The New York Times called Jackie and Roy "the most famous vocal duo in jazz history".

# African wattled lapwing

The African wattled lapwing (Vanellus senegallus), also known as the Senegal wattled plover or simply wattled lapwing, is a large lapwing, a group of largish waders in the family Charadriidae. It is a resident breeder in most of sub-Saharan Africa outside the rainforests, although it has seasonal movements.
These are conspicuous and unmistakable birds. They are large brown waders with a black crown, white forehead and large yellow facial wattles. The tail is white, tipped black, and the long legs are yellow.
In flight, the upperwings have black flight feathers and brown coverts separated by a white bar. The underwings are white with black flight feathers. The African wattled lapwing has a loud peep-peep call.
This species is a common breeder in wet lowland habitats, especially damp grassland. It often feeds in drier habitats, such as golf courses, picking insects and other invertebrates from the ground. It lays three or four eggs on a ground scrape.
The African wattled lapwing is one of the species to which the Agreement on the Conservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds (AEWA) applies.

# Agenioideus nigricornis

Agenioideus nigricornis, the redback spider-hunting wasp, is a species of spider wasp from the subfamily Pompilinae, found in Australia. It is a parasitoid of the venomous redback spider (Latrodectus hasseltii).

## Description

Females are 8.4–11.8mm in length. The head and mesosoma are reddish-brown or orange-brown while the posterior parts of the wasp are black, the limbs and antennae are blackish brown. The wings are sooty in colour, darker basally and paler distally. The males are 4.33–12.64 mm in length and are almost completely black in colour apart from some orange markings around the eyes and on the mesosoma, although these are variable and some individuals may be completely black. The forelegs are largely orange brown but the rest of the legs are uniformly black.

## Biology

The wasp was originally collected by the expedition of Captain James Cook in 1768 and the specimens were described by Johan Christian Fabricius in 1775, and then largely forgotten. A wasp was then observed dragging a redback spider to its nest in a garden in Beaconsfield Western Australia in 2010. Researchers then found an earlier instance from 1950 from South Australia. It is the first species of spider wasp to be recorded as a parasitoid of the redback spider.

## Distribution

Agenioideus nigricornis is found in Australia where it is widespread but it is apparently absent from Tasmania.

## Potential uses

As the redback spider has been introduced into areas outside of Australia in New Zealand and Japan, it has been suggested that Agenioideus nigricornis is potentially a biological control which can be used to control invasive populations of redback spiders.

## Release

Grind was released April 11, 1997, in the United States, where it made $5000.

## Reception

Stephen Holden of The New York Times wrote that the film initially has the potential to be "an American neo-realist gem" but descends into melodrama. Leonard Klady of Variety wrote, "While director and co-writer Chris Kentis' debut feature is not distinctive visually or more than mildly intriguing dramatically, neither is it offensive or inept." Nathan Rabin of The A.V. Club wrote, "While Grind captures its blue-collar milieu with a certain amount of accuracy and conviction, it can't overcome its weak, predictable script and uneven performances." Kevin Thomas of The Los Angeles Times called it "a fine and involving accomplishment" that should launch the careers of all involved.
