Izaak Walton Killam (July 23, 1885 – August 5, 1955) was a Canadian financier.

Early life
Born in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, he was the son of William Dudman Killam and Arabella Hunter (Belle) Cann.

Business ventures
As a young banker with the Union Bank of Halifax, Killam became close friends with John F. Stairs and Max Aitken (Lord Beaverbrook) who put Killam in charge of his Royal Securities. In 1919, Killam bought out Aitken and took full control of the company.  Killam's business dealings primarily involved the financing of large pulp and paper and hydro-electric projects throughout Canada and Latin America. Killam was believed to be the richest man in Canada at the time.  One of his larger projects in his native province was the creation of the Mersey Paper Company Ltd. and its related electrical generating stations and shipping fleet.

In 1922 he married Dorothy Brooks Johnston. Notwithstanding his prodigious financial accomplishments, Killam was a very reserved man who eschewed publicity and was virtually unknown outside a small circle of close acquaintances. Killam died in 1955 at his Quebec fishing lodge. By then he was considered to be the richest man in Canada.

In 1927 Killam acquired The Mail and Empire newspaper and after reorganization it was later sold to the owners of The Globe, who merged it to create The Globe and Mail in 1936.

Philanthropy
Having no children, Killam and his wife devoted the greater part of their wealth to higher education in Canada. The Killam Trusts, established in the will of Mrs. Killam, are held by five Canadian universities: the University of British Columbia, University of Alberta, University of Calgary, Dalhousie University and McGill University.  The current market value of the Killam endowment is approximately CAD$400 million and it is used to fund scientific research and artistic ventures across Canada.

Dalhousie University in Halifax benefited the most, having received a $30 million bequest from Dorothy Killam's estate in 1965 ($214 million in 2011 when adjusted for inflation), representing 32% of her fortune.  The  Killam Memorial Library constructed between 1966 and 1971 at a cost of $7.3 million ($52 million in 2011) was designed by architect Leslie R. Fairn and remains an enduring legacy to this day.

Money from the Killam estate also went to establish Izaak Walton Killam Hospital for Children in Halifax and the Montreal Neurological Institute in Montreal.

When Killam died the government honoured his request to use his inheritance taxes and a large donation, coupled with those of Sir James H. Dunn, to establish the Canada Council for the Arts.

The 1999 Woking Council election took place on 6 May 1999 to elect members of Woking Borough Council in Surrey, England.

Summary
One third of the council was up for election.  The council stayed under no overall control.  Before the election the largest council party grouping, the Liberal Democrats, were two seats short of a majority.  The effect of the election was to make the Liberal Democrats four seats short, to remove their option of relying on the independent councillor and vacant seat where necessary and calling for issue-by-issue full council chamber support of either a third of the local Conservatives or most of the local Labour Party councillors.

After the election, the composition of the council led by 35 councillors was:
Liberal Democrat 14
Conservative 12
Labour 7
Independent 1
Vacant 1

There were no boundary changes (by the Boundary Commission) to affect comparisons made between this election and that of four year's before for the same vacancies.  The council had had no single party overall control relatively frequently, for nine years of 25, since its creation in 1974.

Ips pini, known generally as the pine engraver or North American pine engraver, is a species of typical bark beetle in the family Curculionidae. Males construct nuptial chambers in the bark of dead pine or spruce trees. Ips pini is a tremendous pest when it comes to pines, but mostly of mature red pine plantations. When humans try to get rid of them by trying to burn their habitat, it makes them reproduce even more. As trees get wider, their population ends up competing with other species, but mostly because of the temperature and the chemicals used to stop them is helping the beetle even more. 

They are polygynous. After mating, the females create ovipositional chambers off of the nuptial chamber and lay eggs within the gallery.

In the U.S. state of New York, District Courts are state courts that are a type of trial court of inferior jurisdiction.  District Courts are established in Nassau County the five western towns in Suffolk County.  Each contains individual districts for civil cases which are organized along town lines, while criminal cases are heard in a separate countywide (in Nassau) or half-countywide (in Suffolk) district.  They effectively replace town justice courts in these localities, but have subject-matter jurisdiction and operations similar to city courts.

They are not to be confused with the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, a federal court whose territorial jurisdiction includes the two Long Island counties as well as the city counties of Kings, Queens, and Richmond, or any of the other federal district courts in New York.

Subject-matter jurisdiction
The court has subject-matter jurisdiction over civil matters seeking monetary damages up to $15,000, small-claims matters seeking monetary damages up to $5,000, and landlord and tenant matters. The criminal jurisdiction of the court includes trials over misdemeanors, violations, and infractions, preliminary jurisdiction over felonies, and jurisdiction over traffic tickets charging a crime. In Suffolk County, the jurisdiction of the court also includes town ordinance offenses prosecuted by the towns.  This subject-matter jurisdiction is the same as the city courts within New York State.

Organization

The Nassau County District Court is organized into four districts, all of which sit at 99 Main Street, Hempstead, New York.  The First District covers criminal cases countywide.  The other three districts cover civil cases, and are organized by town and city: the Second covers Hempstead and Long Beach, the Third covers North Hempstead, and the Fourth covers Oyster Bay and Glen Cove.

The Suffolk County District Court is organized into six districts. The First district, having a "central location," covers criminal cases in all five towns.  The other five districts, having "outlying courthouses," are each coextensive with one of the towns, and have the above-noted jurisdiction over civil matters, small claims, landlord and tenant matters, and town ordinances.  The six districts are:

These districts do not correspond to districts of the New York Supreme Court.

Appeals
Appeals from the District Court go to the Appellate Term of the New York Supreme Court for the Second Department.

History
The Suffolk County District Court became active pursuant to the New York Uniform District Court Act in January 1964, replacing the town courts.

On 30 March 2023, a stepwell cover in an Beleshwar Mahadev temple in Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India; collapsed during a celebration of Rama Navami, killing at least 36 people and injuring 16.

Collapse 
On the occasion of Rama Navami, a large number of Hindus visited Beleshwar Mahadev Temple, which sits atop an unused  stepwell covered by a grill and tiles. The weight of the crowd caused the cover to collapse, according to Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh. The incident resulted in death of 36 people and injuries to other 16.

Rescue and relief 
After its collapse, nearly 140 army soldiers helped pull the injured and dead from the well with ropes. Those rescued were brought to a hospital in Indore. Narottam Mishra, a government cabinet minister, said in a statement that water was pumped out of the well in an effort to ease rescue and recovery efforts.

The Prime Minister's Office said that  will be given as compensation, while Mishra said that an investigation and compensation to families would be forthcoming.

Investigation 
An FIR was lodged against the president and the secretary of the temple trust. The Hindu reported that the stepwell roof was two decades old and was an illegal construction. The Indore Municipal Corporation had asked the temple trust to remove the illegal construction but the temple trust had not complied.

Reaction 
Narendra Modi, Prime Minister of India offered his condolences, thoughts, and prayers.

Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh, said "It's an unfortunate incident. A rescue operation is underway. 10 people were rescued safely while nine are still trapped and will be rescued. Efforts are underway to rescue other people."

Paul Cowan (1940-1988) was a New York-based journalist, staff writer for The Village Voice, and the author of several books, including a memoir of his reconnection to his Jewish roots and a guide to interfaith marriages.

Early life

Born on September 21, 1940, Paul Cowan was the child of Louis G. Cowan, a television producer who later became president of CBS, and Pauline “Polly” Spiegel Cowan, an heir to the Spiegel Catalog company, granddaughter of Joseph Spiegel.  While both of his parents were Jewish, Cowan was not raised with any observance of Jewish traditions, a fact that was to become important in his later writing and community involvement.  He attended Choate preparatory school and graduated from Harvard University.

Career

After college, Cowan spent two years in the Peace Corps and in 1970 wrote a book about his experiences in Ecuador, The Making of an Un-American. He joined the Village Voice as a staff writer and wrote about the civil rights movement, coal miners in Kentucky, poverty-stricken older Jews in New York City, the Mexican border city of Ciudad Juárez, and Vietnam War protests. After his parents died in a fire in 1978, Cowan began to investigate his Jewish roots and discovered that his grandparents on his father's side were Orthodox Jews from Lithuania, his family's real name had been Cohen, and his great-great-grandfather had been a rabbi. He embraced his Jewish roots and wrote a book about his journey of discovery, An Orphan in History: Retrieving a Jewish Legacy in 1982.  He and his wife, along with others, worked to start a Jewish school and revitalize an historic synagogue in Manhattan. In 1987 he published Mixed Blessings: Marriage between Jews and Christians, a book about the challenges of interfaith families.

Personal life

Cowan married Rachel Ann Brown, a social worker and rabbi, in 1965.  Together they had two children, Lisa and Matt.  Cowan had three siblings: Geoffrey Cowan, an attorney and university professor, Holly Shulman, and Liza Cowan.

Death

Cowan died of leukemia on September 26, 1988.

Salero is a ghost town in the Santa Rita Mountains of Santa Cruz County, Arizona. As one of the best preserved ghost towns remaining in Arizona, Salero is located on private property of the Salero Ranch and is not open to visitors.

Name
Salero is Spanish for "salt cellar" and was the name of the mine that the town grew up around. According to local tradition, the original Salero Mine was first worked by Spanish Jesuits in the 18th century, sometime after their arrival in what is now southern Arizona in the 1690s. One day, according to the story, the priests at the nearby mission of Tumacacori were expecting a visit from the Bishop of Sonora, so they had a large feast and a specially-crafted salt cellar made of silver from their mine prepared in his honor. The mine that supplied the silver was named "Salero" in memory of the occasion.

History
A partnership of six men, including  William Wrightson, Gilbert Hopkins, Samuel Robinson, Raphael Pumpelly and Horace C. Grosvenor, formed the Salero Mining Company of Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1857. Operating from their headquarters in Tubac, the company built a new mine over the old Spanish workings and put local Mexican settlers to work doing the manual labor. The Salero Mine became a steady producer, but Apache raids prevented the company from exploiting it to its maximum potential. Several of the miners were killed in Apache raids, including Wrightson and Hopkins, for whom the two tallest peaks in the Santa Rita Mountains were named.

The present-day Salero Mine and ghost town was established in the 1870s by George Clark, following the relocation of the mine a few miles to the east, further up in the mountains. A post office was opened at this new location on August 13, 1884, and was in business for only a short time until April 17, 1890. The Salero Mine remained active into the early 20th century and finally ceased activity sometime after 1920. Sometime later the surviving mine buildings were used as a ranch house, saving them from destruction.

What remains of Salero is on private property belonging to the Salero Ranch. Steps to stabilize and preserve the deteriorating adobe buildings have been taken and the townsite remains closed to the public to protect it from vandals. Signs are posted against trespassers. Other ghost towns in the area include Alto, about two miles northwest of Salero, and Kentucky Camp, to the northeast.
