Cold Sassy Tree is an opera composed by Carlisle Floyd, based on the 1984 novel by Olive Ann Burns.

Cold Sassy Tree was Floyd's tenth opera. It had its world premiere on April 14, 2000, at the Houston Grand Opera, with a production staged by Australian filmmaker Bruce Beresford and conducted by Patrick Summers. The original cast included Dean Peterson, Patricia Racette, Diane Alexander, Beth Clayton, Margaret Lloyd and John McVeigh. The production was the Houston Grand Opera's 25th new opera, and was created in a co-commission between the company and opera companies in Austin, Baltimore, North Carolina and San Diego.

Floyd came to the project by way of a sibling. "The book was given to me by my sister, because she thought that somebody from this part of the world, the southeast, would probably fully appreciate it,” he said in an interview following the Houston premiere. “But, everywhere I have traveled in this country, people have read Cold Sassy Tree and the standard reaction from everybody, male and female, is 'I loved it.' Obviously, its appeal goes far beyond regional boundaries. What appealed to me most about it in terms of its operatic possibilities were the very vivid, rich characters. And it is also rich in comic incidents.”

Cold Sassy Tree has been staged by regional opera countries around the United States.  A two-disk CD recording featuring the original Houston Grand Opera cast was released in 2005 by Albany Records. The Houston performance was videotaped for television, but it was never broadcast or released on DVD.

Edward C. "Mouse" Glenn (September 19, 1860 in Richmond, Virginia – February 10, 1892 in Richmond, Virginia) was a professional baseball outfielder. He played all or part of three seasons in the major leagues between  and , mostly in the American Association.

Ed, a 5' 10", 160-pound right-handed outfielder, had 555 plate appearances in 137 major league games. He hit .202 with 20 extra-base hits and 29 RBI, but was more widely respected for his dextrous outfield play, smart base running, and steady clubhouse presence. Among his teammates in Richmond and Boston was star third-baseman Billy Nash, another native Richmonder. 

Ed also played for five minor league teams between 1884 and 1890, including the Richmond Virginias/Virginians of the Eastern League; the Syracuse Stars of the International League; the Charleston Quakers and Charleston Seagulls of the Southern League; and the Sioux City Corn Huskers of the Western Association. As a minor-leaguer, he hit .304, with 15 home runs. He also pitched seven innings for Charleston in 1887, giving up eight runs (five earned) on 16 hits. Injuries derailed his career in 1890. 

He began playing in 1879 and eventually signed with the Richmond Virginias, an independent professional club, which became a member of the new minor Eastern League in 1884 (and which, also known as the "Virginians", briefly became a major-league American Association team in August of that year after the demise of the A. A.'s Washington franchise). The Virginias/Virginians returned to a re-formed minor-league Eastern League in 1885. 

His grave is in Richmond's Shockoe Hill Cemetery. His marker gives his actual name, Edward C. Glinn.

The Lost Honour of Christopher Jefferies is a 2014 British television film. It tells the real-life story of retired schoolteacher Christopher Jefferies, who was questioned by police as a suspect in the murder of Joanna Yeates. He was vilified by the press, partly because of his eccentric appearance, even after he had been released on bail by the police.

The film was directed by Roger Michell, written by Peter Morgan, and stars Jason Watkins as Jefferies. The title is taken from The Lost Honour of Katharina Blum by Heinrich Böll, a fictional account of media defamation.

Plot
The drama begins the day before Yeates’ disappearance, and follows the innocent Jefferies through his arrest, release and subsequent isolation as his un-sought fame profoundly affects his life. Five weeks later the real killer, neighbour Vincent Tabak, is finally arrested. Jefferies later gives evidence at the Leveson inquiry into the News of the World phone hacking scandal.

Production
The screenplay was written by Peter Morgan. The Bristol Post reported that Jefferies had read and approved the script, and supported the project.
The drama was produced by Carnival Films and Television and aired on 10 and 11 December 2014 on ITV.

Critical reception
In May 2015, it won two awards at the 2015 British Academy Television Awards—Best Mini-Series for the programme itself and Best Actor for Watkins's portrayal of Jefferies.

In 2016 it won two awards at the RTS Awards for Craft in Drama: Best Editing and Sound Fiction.

WUPE (1110 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Pittsfield, Massachusetts.  It is owned by Townsquare Media and it simulcasts the classic hits format of 100.1 WUPE-FM.  WUPE serves the Berkshire Mountains area.  The station is a daytimer and must sign off the air at sunset, according to Federal Communications Commission rules.

By day, WUPE transmits with 5,000 watts, using a directional antenna, but because 1110 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for KFAB Omaha and WBT Charlotte, WUPE must be off the air at night, when radio waves travel further.  Programming is also heard in Pittsfield on FM translator W277CJ at 103.3 MHz.  That gives listeners three spots on the dial to hear WUPE, AM 1110, FM 100.1 and FM 103.3.

History
The station first signed on the air on .  It was progressive rock WGRG. WGRG became Top 40 WUPE in 1977. WUPE became WUHN, playing adult standards in the early 1980s. The format was flipped to oldies in 1990, and then to country music in 1996. The WUPE call letters were restored along with the oldies format in 2006.

In August 2013, Gamma Broadcasting reached a deal to sell its Berkshire County radio stations, including WUPE, to Reed Miami Holdings; the sale was canceled on December 30, 2013. In August 2015, WUPE added an FM translator in the Pittsfield area. In October 2016, Gamma agreed to sell its stations to Galaxy Communications; that sale also fell through, and in 2017 the stations were acquired by Townsquare Media.

Luilang, or ambiguously Ketagalan (Ketangalan, Tangalan; ), was a Formosan language spoken south of modern-day Taipei in northern Taiwan by one of several peoples that have been called Ketagalan. The language probably went extinct in the mid-20th century and it is very poorly attested.

Location
According to oral tradition, the Luilang people originally inhabited four villages near Taipei: Luili (雷里, Leili), Siulang (秀朗, Xiulang), Bulisiat (務裡薛, Wulixue) and Liau-a (了阿, Liao'a). These merged under the combined name Luilang (雷朗, Leilang), and later migrated to their current location in Outer Oat-a (外挖仔庄, Waiwazizhuang) in the 18th century.

Name
The name 'Ketagalan' is used by Ethnologue and Glottolog for the Luilang language. However, that name is ambiguous, originally referring to all of plains tribes of northern Taiwan. There has been argument in the literature as to whether it is better applied to Luilang, to the south and west of Taipei, or to Basay, to the east. 'Luilang' is an ancestral village name, and so unambiguous for the language southwest of Taipei, whereas 'Basay' is the endonym of the language to the east, and also unambiguous.

Numerals
The numerals of Luilang are rather divergent. For instance, the Basay language has numerals 5–10 that are cognate with Proto-Malayo-Polynesian, which Luilang does not. Forms recorded by Guérin (using French transcription), Ino (using Japanese transcription) and Ogawa are:
