José Carlos Schwarz (Bissau, December 6, 1949 – Havana, May 27, 1977) was a Bissau-Guinean poet and musician.

Biography
José Carlos Schwarz was born in Bissau (Portuguese Guinea) from well-to-do parents of Cape Verdean, Portuguese Guinean and German descent. After his high school education in Senegal and Cape Verde and a short stay in Lisbon, he returned to Guinea-Bissau in 1969. In 1970 he formed the Cobiana Djazz band with a group of friends (Aliu Bari, Mamadu Bá and Samakê). The band was a considerable local success, partly because the band started to play more and more gumbe, an original West African music style. Schwarz wrote in Portuguese and French, but he sang in Creole.

He also became politically active, and joined the resistance against the colonial ruler. He was imprisoned in the prison of the Ilha das Galinhas (Guinea-Bissau) for his participation in the struggle for the independence of his country. Inspired by this experience, he composed the song "Djiu Di Galinha".

Following the independence of Guinea-Bissau in 1974, Schwarz became director of the Department for Art and Culture, also responsible for Guinea-Bissau's youth policy. In 1977 he got a job at the Guinea-Bissau embassy in Cuba. On May 27 of the same year, Schwarz died in a plane crash near Havana.

A butcher block or butcher's block is a heavy duty chopping block, typically laminated of hardwood. 

Traditionally made of hard maple, it was commonly used in butcher shops and meat processing plants but has now become popular in home use.

The term “butcher block” can also refer to the pattern or style of a traditional block adapted to other functions, such as table tops and cutting boards.

There are two basic styles of butcher block: end grain and edge grain. Besides maple, popular contemporary woods include teak, birch, or walnut, sometimes in alternating patterns.

A simple variant of the function of a chopping block is made out of a several-inch-thick cross section of a wide hardwood log.

Use
Butcher blocks have been used in butcher shops for centuries, and still are in many European countries.  Increasingly, a version of butcher block is also being used in domestic kitchens as an alternative to stone and laminate countertops.  This has created a new industry in the kitchen design arena and many furniture manufacturers and hardwood flooring companies are getting into the production of butcher blocks and butcher block countertops, in part because the countertops can be constructed from left-over wood that would otherwise be discarded.

Basic care 
Proper care of a butcher block is important for longevity of the material and, to a degree, food safety.

If the material is regularly exposed to water and not well cleaned mold can form.  The seams where the wood is joined can buckle as the wood expands and contracts.  Keeping the material well oiled allows it to maintain a rich color and its water repelling properties.  

To properly care for the butcher block any foreign material should first be removed, it can be disinfected with vinegar (or in extreme cases, bleach), allowed to dry well, and refreshed with mineral oil or other food safe sealant.

Maha Kali is an EP by the Swedish extreme metal band Dissection. It was the first release after the rebirth of Dissection, shortly after Jon Nödtveidt was released from prison. It represents the band's change from a melodic black/death sound to a more Gothenburg-based sound of melodic death metal. The song "Maha Kali" also appears on the live DVD Rebirth of Dissection, and was re-recorded and included on Dissection's last full-length album, Reinkaos; "Unhallowed (Rebirth Version)" is a re-recording from Storm of the Light's Bane. Maha Kali entered the Swedish charts at number 50.

Pleterje Charterhouse (; , also Pleterjach, Pletriach, or Pleteriach) is a Carthusian monastery, or charterhouse, in the village of Drča near Šentjernej in Slovenia, the only extant monastery of that order in the country.

History

First foundation

The monastery, situated in a valley at the foot of the Gorjanci mountains, was founded in 1403 by Count Hermann II of Celje, and its construction completed by 1407.

The Austrian mystic and theologian Nikolaus Kempf was prior here from 1447 to 1451 and again from 1462 to 1467.

In 1471 an Ottoman raid destroyed the buildings, which were reconstructed in a much stronger and more easily defensible manner.

After a long period of decline Archduke Ferdinand II of Inner Austria gave the monastery in 1595 to the Jesuits of Ljubljana. When the Jesuits were suppressed in 1772, Pleterje became state property. In 1839 it passed into private hands.

Second foundation
In 1899 the Carthusians reacquired the site and began construction of a new monastery, which was completed five years later.

During World War II, the charterhouse suffered severe damage when it was set on fire by Communist Partisans on February 21, 1943. The fire destroyed 17 monastic cells.

Present day

The charterhouse has remained a Carthusian monastery to this day. The buildings date from the second foundation in the late 19th century, except for the Gothic church, dedicated to the Holy Trinity, which survives from the earlier monastery.

Produce
The monks cultivate 30 hectares of land, mostly for fruit and honey, which they sell, and from which they also produce wine, fruit spirits (especially pear brandy), mead and beeswax candles.

Art collection
The community at Pleterje are the owners of a significant collection of several dozen paintings, which for the sake of the peace of the community have been deposited on permanent loan for exhibition in a gallery in Kostanjevica na Krki. The paintings date from the 17th and 18th centuries, and are attributed to Flemish, French, Italian and German artists. They seem mostly to have reached Pleterje with refugee monks from Bosserville Charterhouse in Lorraine, who were given shelter in Pleterje in 1904.

Museums
The monastery accommodates a display of items from the collections of the Dolenjska Museum of local history, and on part of its lands stands the Pleterje Charterhouse Open Air Museum of typical Slovenian peasant buildings.

The third World Cup season began in December 1968 and concluded in March 1969.  This was the first season in which the races began prior to January 1, and that change immediately became permanent.  Karl Schranz of Austria won the first of two consecutive overall titles. Gertrude Gabl of Austria won the women's overall title.  For the first and only (as of 2016) time in World Cup history, a discipline trophy was shared by more than two people, as four men (three French, one Austrian) tied for the men's slalom trophy.

The race footage for the film Downhill Racer was shot during this season, primarily in January 1969.

Arnold Stanley "Bud" Byfield (1 November 1923 – 4 July 2015) was an Australian sportsman who played first-class cricket in the Sheffield Shield for Western Australia and Australian rules football with Melbourne in the Victorian Football League (VFL) and Claremont in the West Australian Football League (WAFL).

Born in Northam Byfield, known as "Bud", was a member of Claremont's 1940 premiership team, at the age of just 16. In 1946 he joined the Melbourne Football Club in Victoria and played in the 1946 VFL Grand Final, which they lost to Essendon. It was his only season in the league and he returned to Western Australia the following year for one final season at Claremont. He also played 284 games for country football clubs and umpired a further 152 games. Byfield served as president of the West Australian Country Football League from its inception in 1973 to 1991, and in 2004 was inducted into the West Australian Football Hall of Fame.

In six first-class cricket matches, Byfield made 251 runs at 27.88 and took two wickets at 21.50 with his medium pace bowling. He made four appearances in the 1953/54 Sheffield Shield, including one against New South Wales when he dismissed both Ian Craig and Bob Simpson as well as scoring 36 in his first innings. His highest score came against the touring South Africans in 1953 when he scored 38 not out, after an unbeaten 16 in the first innings.

Garry Kitchen's GameMaker is an integrated development environment for the Commodore 64, Apple II, and IBM PC compatibless, created by Garry Kitchen and released by Activision in 1985. It is one of the earliest all-in-one game design products aimed at the general consumer, preceded by Broderbund’s The Arcade Machine in 1982. Several sample files are included: a demo sequence featuring animated sprites and music, a recreation of Pitfall!, and a birthday greeting.

Two add-on disks are available for the Commodore 64 version: Sports, and Science Fiction. These include sprites, music, and background elements for loading into GameMaker.

Construction 

GameMaker is divided into five tools, each of which consists of a graphical interface controlled with the joystick:

 SceneMaker - for creating background graphics
 SpriteMaker - for creating movable objects (i.e., sprites)
 MusicMaker - for composing musical scores
 SoundMaker - for creating sound effects
 The Editor - for programming the actual game

The programming language used by GameMaker is reminiscent of other early programming languages like BASIC, but with several proprietary and tightly integrated graphics and sound facilities.

Rather than enter the language via keyboard, GameMaker uses a novel contextual menu-based system. The user selects possible instructions, and then customizes the active objects of the instruction, such as variable names or numbers.

Limitations 

Some limitations of Gamemaker are imposed by the Commodore 64 architecture, and some by the software itself:

 Only eight sprites may be displayed at once (a C64 limit)
 Each sprite and background may have a maximum of four colors, out of a palette of sixteen (a C64 limit)
 Only two stationary background screens may be employed per game (a GameMaker limit)
 Only 3553 total bytes are available for game resources — including sounds, music, sprites, and code (a GameMaker limit)
 The games themselves may not access the disk (a GameMaker limit)

Reception
Computer Gaming World called GameMaker "excellent". COMPUTE's! Gazette called it "a thorough, complete package that makes it relatively easy to design arcade games that actually work."

Pumpkin ale is a popular style of beer in the United States. Pumpkin ale may be produced using pumpkin flesh in combination with malt or other more typical beer grains as a portion of the mash bill, contributing fermentable sugars to the wort. It may also be produced by adding natural or artificial flavor to a finished beer. Spice flavor may be added to evoke the flavor of pumpkin pie, a popular American wintertime dessert.

Many styles of pumpkin ale are produced, including pale ales, wheat beers, porters, and stouts. Often produced as a seasonal beer in the fall, it is produced by several breweries including Sea Dog Brewery, Shipyard Brewing Company, Saint Arnold Brewing Company and Blue Moon.

History
The brewing of beer with pumpkin in the United States dates back to 1771. The first commercially brewed pumpkin ale came from Buffalo Bill's Brewery in Hayward, California, in the 1980s, the recipe based on brewing studies made by George Washington. The beer's contemporary popularity has been described as part of a "pumpkin spice craze," initiated by a rash of pumpkin- and pumpkin-spice-flavored consumer food products, such as the Pumpkin Spice Latte.
