Frank Fixaris (May 6, 1934 in Torrington, Connecticut – January 13, 2006 in Falmouth, Maine) was an American sportscaster, anchor, reporter, and disc jockey, spending the majority of his career at WGME-TV  in Portland, Maine. He also, along with partner Dave "Shoe" Schumacher, co-hosted a morning radio show on WJAB  after his television run. "Shoe" continues to co-host the show, known as "The Morning Jab", with present partner, Joe Palmieri.

Fixaris attended college in Boston, Massachusetts and graduated from Emerson College  in 1956. He then worked at several radio stations early in his career before taking the job as a sports anchor at WGME in 1965 (then WGAN) and continued there until 1995. He served as sports director there from 1967 until 1992. Coincidentally Fixaris' cousin, former Major League Baseball player Jimmy Piersall, also worked as a sportscaster.

He was the color commentator of the Maine Mariners , and later the Portland Pirates of the American Hockey League. Although offered several network positions (particularly with CBS, as well as the New York Islanders), he chose to remain in Maine. He was co-awarded one of the James H. Ellery Memorial Awards by the AHL for his outstanding work in 1978. In honor of his many years of work with the Mariners/Pirates, the press box at the Cumberland County Civic Center  bears his name as a memorial tribute. A 2006 inductee into the Maine Association of Broadcaster's hall of fame, Fixaris is also remembered annually with an award in his name issued by the Portland Fire Department, as well as two scholarships for students studying communication science at Saint Joseph's College of Maine .

The Fix Cup , a former annual high school hockey tournament in Portland (modeled after the Beanpot tournament), was named after Fixaris.

He was known as having an encyclopedic knowledge of all things sports, especially at the local level. Popular broadcasters Mike Emrick, Dale Arnold, Tom Caron, Scott Wykoff and J.J. Jeffrey considered him as being instrumental in their development.

Fixaris died in a fire at his home on January 13, 2006. He is survived by his wife, Barbara, and a son, Michael. His brother, Richard, died in December, 2013. He is buried at Evergreen Cemetery in Portland, Maine.

Hamilton Place is an antebellum plantation house in Maury County, Tennessee, near Columbia.

The house was completed in 1832. It was built for Lucius Junius Polk, a wealthy cotton planter who served as a state senator and later as Tennessee's adjutant-general, by master builder Nathan Vaught. The Palladian design of its front facade is based on Palladio's design for the Villa Pisani at Montagnana. The interior floor plan was loosely based on the White House floor plan, and an interior arcade is styled after a design by Brunelleschi for a hospital in Florence, Italy.

Hamilton Place was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. It is across the highway from Rattle and Snap, the house built in 1845 for Lucius J. Polk's brother George Washington Polk.

George Beall, Jr. (February 26, 1729 – October 15, 1807) was a wealthy landowner in Maryland and Georgetown in what is now Washington, D.C.  He was the son of George Beall, Sr. (1695-1780) and Elizabeth Brooke (1699-1748), and the grandson of Col. Ninian Beall (1625-1717) and Ruth Moore (1651-1712). George Beall married Elizabeth Magruder.

George's grandfather, Ninian Beall, among other political and military service, was a member of the Grand Committee of Twenty at the Protestant Associators' Convention of 1689-1692, the executive council of the colony during the absence of control by the Calvert Family.

Beall's Levels and Rock of Dumbarton, part of his landholdings, were surveyed in 1752 as a possible site for George Town (now Georgetown).  Maryland offered Beall two lots in the town, along with the "price of condemnation" (remuneration).  Beall protested the proceedings, though ended up accepting two lots.  Maryland paid a total of 280 pounds to acquire the land from Beall, along with land owned by George Gordon.

Beall died on October 15, 1807, and was originally buried in a family plot alongside their home on N Street (at 31st Street).  Around 1870, he was moved to the Presbyterian Burying Ground, (now Volta Park) in Georgetown. His remains were moved to Oak Hill Cemetery in July 1871 to an unmarked grave on Reno Hill, Lot 754.

Charles Kean (16 February 1868 – 16 January 1944) was a British trade union leader.  He brought together workers in the wallpaper industry in a single union.

For many years, Kean was an active trade unionist, based in Manchester.  In 1908, he began representing the Manchester and Salford Trades Council on the Manchester Education Committee, and in later years he also served as the council's president.

From 1909, Kean was leader of the small Amalgamated Union of Engravers to Calico Printers and Paper Stainers.  In 1917, he founded the Wallpaper Stainers' Trade Union Federation, which also included the Amalgamated Society of Machine Paper Stainers and Colour Mixers of Great Britain and the Paper Stainers' Union of General Workers.  Kean persuaded the two to join with those members of his union involved in the manufacture of wallpaper in forming a new Wallpaper Workers' Union.

Kean decided to focus on the wallpaper industry, and resigned from the Engravers in 1920; he was elected as the first general secretary of the Wallpaper Workers' Union.  Under his leadership, the union established the Wallpaper Makers' Industrial Council, which focused on negotiations with employers, and the avoidance of industrial action.  He represented the union to the General Federation of Trade Unions, serving on its management council for twelve years, and as chair of the federation from 1930 to 1932.

Kean retired as leader of the Wallpaper Workers' Union in 1935, becoming the superintendent of the Wallpaper Trade Convalescent and Holiday Home.  He remained active on the Manchester Education Committee until shortly before his death, early in 1944.

Centennial Discovery Software is an IT Asset Management (ITAM) tool which identifies and records software and hardware inventories on networked devices with the centennial reporting service installed.

Each device is set up with a scheduled reporting cycle i.e. on a small desktop estate one might have each device report in every day or even every hour. However on a large corporate estate a 10-day cycle is more appropriate to reduce network traffic as well as the volume of historical data Centennial stores.

Centennial comes with a 'Control Center' application with which this data can be viewed and queried although all the data is stored in an SQL database which can be queried externally to produce usage reports etc.

On April 28, 2008, FrontRange Solutions acquired Centennial Software for an undisclosed sum.

The slogan Nur für Deutsche (English: "Only for Germans") was a German ethnocentric slogan indicating that certain establishments, transportation and other facilities such as park benches, bars and restaurants were reserved exclusively for Germans. It was used during the World War II in many German-occupied countries, especially Poland from 1939 onwards. Signs bearing the slogan were posted at entrances to parks, cafes, cinemas, theaters and other facilities. They were normally the best such facilities to show the indigenous population the alleged "superiority" of the Germans.

History

In German-occupied Poland, racial segregation was nearly complete by 1940.  In streetcars and trains, the first car was usually reserved for German administrative and military personnel, Nazi party members, and German civilians.  Other nationalities were to use the remaining cars.  Jews were refused any such usage.  The segregation was repeated in other occupied countries such as parts of the Soviet Union for example.  It was another way to intimidate local people, in addition to  imposition of legal constraints, curfews and unfair exchange rates. Jews were discriminated against in all occupied countries as well as Germany itself, and some towns boasted of their judenfrei status.  The constraints on Jews were the most severe of all, and they were refused ownership of cars, bicycles, radios and could only go shopping at limited times for example.  They were forbidden to use park benches and then public parks at all, notices included "Juden verboten" were commonplace across Germany.  Such restrictions were applied gradually in Germany from 1933 on, but much more rapidly following invasion of a country. Thus Austrian Jews suffered extreme restraints faster after the Anschluss in 1938, as did Poland from 1939 onwards after military conquest.  The German attitude was based on its racial philosophy of being the "master race", to whom all other "races" were inferior, and thus to be exploited and enslaved.

Similar signage was used in South Africa during apartheid and in the United States during Jim Crow, where bus travel for example was racially segregated.  Discriminating signage was also used informally in the UK, notably in signs in bed and breakfast accommodation barring Irish and blacks. Such signs are now illegal.

Reaction
In Polish partisan parlance, toxic or otherwise undrinkable moonshine was jocularly called "nur für Deutsche".
Partisans were also fond of painting the words "nur für Deutsche" on graveyard fences or street lampposts (a reference to hanging).

Carpophorus, Exanthus, Cassius, Severinus, Secundus and Licinius (all died circa 295 AD) were Christian soldiers who, according to tradition, were martyred at Como during the reign of Maximian.

Legends

The cult of Fidelis of Como is associated with these saints.  Variations on more or less the same legend concern them.  The first says that he, with Carpophorus and Exanthus, were Roman soldiers (members of the famed Theban Legion) who deserted during the persecution of Christians by Maximian.  They were caught and executed at Como.  

The second says that Fidelis was an army officer who was guarding Christian prisoners at Milan, including Saint Alexander of Bergamo.  He managed to procure the freedom of five of these prisoners.  With Carpophorus and Exanthus, he and these five attempted to make their way to the Alps, but were executed at Como.  The martyrdom is considered to have occurred on the north side of Lake Como, near Samolaco.
 
Their feast day is August 7.  The church of San Carpoforo at Como, was, according to tradition, founded reusing a former temple of Mercury to house the remains of Carpophorus and other local martyrs.

Just Carpophorus was often venerated with Fidelis of Como, and both saints were in turn venerated at Arona with two other soldier saints, Felinus and Gratian, on a joint feast day of March 13.

Robert Lee "Chick" Willis (September 24, 1934 – December 7, 2013) was an American blues singer and guitarist, who performed and recorded from the 1950s to the 2000s.

Biography
He was born in Cabaniss, Monroe County, Georgia, the cousin of Chuck Willis. He served in the military in the early 1950s, before working as a chauffeur for Chuck Willis during his heyday. He won a talent show at the Magnolia Ballroom in Atlanta and made his first record in 1956, with the Ebb Records' single "You're Mine". Initially, he only sang, but learned guitar while touring with his cousin; Guitar Slim was one of his foremost influences.

After Chuck's death in 1958, Willis played with Elmore James, recording singles through the 1960s for Atco and other labels. His 1972 release, "Stoop Down Baby Let Your Daddy See", was a jukebox hit but secured no radio airplay, due to its sexually explicit content. The song was one he had developed when working at a carnival show, where he would tease passers-by with ribald rhymes.  Some of his later recordings reworked the song.  Another of his dirty blues recordings was his cover of "Mother Fuyer", which appeared on his 1972 album Stoop Down Baby... Let Your Daddy See, and released as the B-side to his "Stoop Down Baby Let Your Daddy See" single on La Val Records. Willis claimed songwriting credits.

He released a steady stream of albums on Ichiban Records in the 1980s and 1990s, and continued to record into the 2000s.

He died on December 7, 2013, aged 79.

The Bloc Català () is a Catalan nationalist political party in Pyrénées-Orientales (France) (or Northern Catalonia as Bloc Català refers to it). It was established on October 23, 2001. 

It defines itself as a center-left wing political party. One of its proposals is the establishment of a "northern Catalan region" in France. This party was one of the organizations that promoted a movement against the denomination Septimanie, proposed by Georges Frêche, the president of the region of Languedoc-Roussillon. As a symbol of a so-called Catalan resistance against that move, they will adopt a disguised donkey as mascot.

It participates since 2002 in all the elections of Northern Catalonia: cantonal, legislative, regional and European elections. So far, it has not won election.

On December 3, 2006, the Bloc Català changed its name and it was converted to an autonomous federation, representative of Northern Catalonia, of the Spanish Catalan political party Convergència Democràtica de Catalunya.
