Paul Joseph Madigan (March 13, 1897 – December 25, 1974) was the third warden of Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary, which was situated on Alcatraz Island, California, US.
 He was born in Maple Lake, Minnesota in 1897.
 Madigan served as warden of Alcatraz from 1955 to 1961, and had earlier served as the last Associate Warden during the term of James A. Johnston, the first Warden of Alcatraz.
 He has been cited as the only warden who had worked his way up from the bottom of the ranks of the prison staff hierarchy, having worked originally as a Correctional Officer on Alcatraz from the 1930s.
 In May 21, 1941, Madigan was a key to quashing an escape attempt after being held hostage in the Model Industries Building, and later led to a promotion as associate warden.
 He was a stout, ruddy-faced, pipe-smoking, devout Irish Catholic.
 Unlike his predecessors, Madigan was known for being more lenient and softer in his approach to administering the prison and was better liked by the prison staff.
 During his term as warden from January 1955, there was a movement underway headed by the likes of James V. Bennett to close Alcatraz and replace with a new centralized penitentiary; the decision was finalized in 1961, the year Madigan's term ended, and Alcatraz was closed two years later.
Bhadant Nagarjun Arya Surai SASAI (佐々井 秀嶺 , Sasai Shūrei ) (born as Minoru SASAI (佐々井 実 , "Sasai Minoru" ) ), popularly known as "Sasai," is a Japanese-born buddhist monk who later chose India as his home.
 Sasai came to India in 1966 and met Nichidatsu Fujii, whom he helped with the Peace Pagoda at Rajgir.
 He fell out with Fuji, however, but he related that on his return journey he was stopped by a dream in which a figure resembling Nagarjuna appeared and said, "Go to Nagpur".
 In Nagpur, he met Wamanrao Godbole, the person who had organized the conversion ceremony for Dr. Ambedkar in 1956.
 Sasai claims that when he saw a photograph of Dr. Ambedkar at Godbole's home, he realized that Ambedkar had appeared in his dream.
 At first, Nagpur residents considered Surai Sasai very strange.
 Then he began to greet them with "Jai Bhim" (victory to Ambedkar) and to build viharas.
 In 1987, a court case to deport him for overstaying his visa was dismissed.
 He was granted Indian citizenship, which cost him his Japanese citizenship.
 Sasai is one of the main leaders of the campaign to free the Mahabodhi Temple at Bodh Gaya from Hindu control.

Alcatraz Island ( ) is located in San Francisco Bay, 1.25 mi offshore from San Francisco, California, United States.
 The small island was developed with facilities for a lighthouse, a military fortification, a military prison (1868), and a federal prison from 1934 until 1963.
 Beginning in November 1969, the island was occupied for more than 19 months by a group of Native Americans from San Francisco, who were part of a wave of Native activism across the nation, with public protests through the 1970s.
 In 1972, Alcatraz became part of a national recreation area and received designation as a National Historic Landmark in 1986.
Alcatraz Island Lighthouse is a lighthouse – the first one built on the U.S. West Coast – located on Alcatraz Island in California's San Francisco Bay.
 It is located at the southern end of the island near the entrance to the prison.
 The first light house on the island was completed in 1854, and served the bay during its time as a Citadel and military prison.
 It was replaced by a taller 95 ft above mean sea level) concrete tower built in 1909 to the south of the original one which was demolished after it was damaged due to earthquake in 1906.
 The automation of the lighthouse with a modern beacon took place in 1963, the year Alcatraz closed as the Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary.
 It is the oldest light station on the island with a modern beacon and is part of the museum on the island.
 Although when viewed from afar it easily looks the tallest structure on Alcatraz, it is actually shorter than the Alcatraz Water Tower, but as it lies on higher ground it looks much taller.
