Showman can have a variety of meanings, usually by context and depending on the country.

Australia 
Travelling showmen are people who run amusement and side show equipment at regional shows, state capital shows, events and festivals throughout Australia. In the past, the term has also been used for the people who organized freak shows, sideshows, circuses, travelling theatre troupes and boxing tents.

In Australia, there are around 500 travelling show families, Australian travelling show families in the Eastern states have a travelling School that has approximately 90 children.

Ireland 
Family names associated with funfairs in Ireland include Fox-McFadden,  Cassells, Cullen, McFadden, Murray, Bird, Perks and Bell. Turbetts, Hudsons, McCormacks, McGurk, Wilmots and Grahams are associated with coastal amusements, particularly in the west of the country.

Turkey 
"Showman" ("şovmen" in Turkish) refers to a talk show host in Turkey.

United Kingdom 

In the United Kingdom, showmen are a community intrinsically linked to the businesses they operate, such as funfairs and circuses. The Showmen's Guild of Great Britain is the most dominant trade association, with a membership of around 4,700 and a total collective of 25,000 showmen and -women in the industry.
The head of the family is the President. For example, the Guild co-organizes St Giles' Fair in Oxford with Oxford City Council each September, alongside a number of other fairs and events across the UK. A large amount of major events in the UK have a fairground element incorporated, such as the Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park, Leeds Festival and Edinburgh's Festive offering, to name a few.

Whilst the Showmen's Guild of Great Britain (SGGB) stands as the largest trade association, there are other, smaller industry bodies such as the Association of Independent Showmen (AIS) and Society of Independent Roundabout Proprietors (SIRPS).

United States 
Those of the traveling circus (traveling carnival)—Carnies are comparable to Showmen but in the United States, the term "Showman" primarily refers to male dancers (showgirls being the female equivalent); an example being Gene Kelly in the film Singin' in the Rain. 

The term showman or show people, can also be meant as a superlative or complimentary term, sometimes as an accolade or quasi-title, such as in the documentary name Harry Saltzman: Showman.

Dancing Forever World Tour () was the second concert tour by Taiwanese singer Jolin Tsai. It started on September 15, 2006, at Hong Kong Coliseum and continued throughout Asia, Australia, and the United States before concluding on February 8, 2009, in Uncasville at Mohegan Sun Arena. It grossed NT$1 billion from 28 shows and 500,000 attendance.

Background 
On August 7, 2004, Tsai embarked on her first concert tour J1 World Tour in Shanghai, China at Hongkou Football Stadium. It lasted one year and nine months and held a total of 8 shows in 7 cities, and it ended on April 22, 2006 in Irvine, United States at Bren Events Center. On May 12, 2006, she released her eighth studio album, Dancing Diva. On May 31, 2006, Tsai's manager Howard Chiang revealed that she would start her new tour in the second half of the year. On July 17, 2006, she announced that she would start her second concert tour Dancing Forever World Tour in Hong Kong, China at Hong Kong Coliseum on September 15, 2006.

Commercial reception 
The Shanghai date of the tour was available for sale on August 1, 2006, the first-day box office broke the Hongkou Football Stadium's first-day box office record, and the first-week box office exceeded ¥1.5 million RMB. The Taipei dates were available for sale on September 18, 2006, and all the 22,000 tickets were sold out within six days. Therefore, she announced that an additional Taipei show would be held on November 17, 2006, becoming the first singer to hold three consecutive shows at Taipei Arena in history. The additional Taipei date was available for sale on September 29, 2006, and all the 11,000 tickets were sold out by the end of October 21, 2006.

Controversies 
The dance moves in the tour were more difficult and dangerous than those of most artists, including gymnastics elements such as rings and pommel horse. However, some people criticized and thought that her concert was more like "playing acrobatics" and lost the original meaning of concert. Regarding this, Tsai responded: "Many of my songs are dance music, which can only be fully performed with dance. Those difficult gymnastics moves are the icing on the cake. I don't think they destroyed the integrity of the concert. After all, everyone's performance style is different."

Video release 

On June 8, 2007, Tsai released the live video album If You Think You Can, You Can! for the tour, which includes part of the performances at Taipei Arena in Taipei, Taiwan from November 17 to 19, 2006, one documentary, and four music videos from the album, Dancing Forever. In its first week of release, it topped the weekly video album sales charts of G-Music and Five Music in Taiwan, and it reached number two and number one on the yearly video album sales charts of G-Music and Five Music of 2007, respectively.

The 2006–07 St. Louis Blues season, its 40th in the league, saw the team attempting to improve on the 2005–06 season, in which it had finished with the worst record in the National Hockey League (21–46–15, 57 points).

One major offseason transaction saw the Blues sign Doug Weight back to the roster via free agency, after he had left the team at the trade deadline of the 2005–06 season and won the Stanley Cup as a member of the Carolina Hurricanes.

One notable event of the season was the jersey retirement of Brett Hull's number 16 on December 5, 2006. In the ceremony, the Blues announced that a section of nearby Clark Avenue would be renamed Brett Hull Way. In front of a sellout crowd, the Blues then went on to lose a disappointing game 5–1 to the division rival Detroit Red Wings.

The team started the season very poorly, winning only seven of its first 30 games. A dramatic turn-around was made in mid-December, however, and over a 20-game span, the Blues went 13–3–4. By the end of January, St. Louis had pulled its record to near .500 and had climbed into third place in the Central Division standings.

Gavinaspis is a phyllolepid placoderm which lived during the Early Devonian period (Late Lochkovian epoch), of Qujing, Yunnan province, south China.

Discovery and naming
The known fossil remains of Gavinaspis convergens were collected by the Early Vertebrate Research Group of IVPP during field trips from 1998 to 2006, and the species was officially published in 2008 in Geological Magazine. The specimens are from the middle part of the Xitun Formation, which dates to the late Lochkovian. The generic name honors Dr Gavin C. Young of the Australian National University.

The species is known from a portion of a skull roof (the holotype, IVPP V 15085-1, 2) and three left paranuchal plates. No thoracic material is known.

The Latin School of Indianapolis served from 1955 to 1978 as a pre-seminary boys' high school for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Indianapolis. 

In its first two academic years, the Latin School operated as part of Cathedral High School, an all-boys Catholic high school founded in 1918. The first class had 24 boys enrolled. During those two years, the school was named the Cathedral Latin School.  

In its third academic year, the Latin School moved into dedicated facilities, consisting of four classrooms attached to the Holy Rosary Church at 520 Stevens Street.  The name was changed to Bishop Bruté Latin School after Simon Bruté, the first Bishop of the Diocese of Vincennes, which at the time included all of Indiana.

Father Joseph D. Brokhage (S.T.D., ordained 1939, Monsignor 1964) served as both rector of the school and pastor of Holy Rosary parish. Under his leadership, the school grew steadily and added a large wing of classrooms, a recreation room and a gymnasium/auditorium along Stevens Street.  An ambitious program was launched in 1963 to build a group of dormitories for out-of-town students. This plan was only partially carried out. The first dormitory, Dugan Hall, was built with funds provided by the Latin School Foundation, a foundation started by the District Council of Catholic Men. Dugan Hall was named for Msgr. Henry Dugan, who had been a member of the advisory board when the school was founded.

Academics 

The concept of the Latin School originated with Brokhage, who modeled the school academically after the Boston Latin School, the oldest public school in America.  The Indianapolis Latin School differed from the Boston school, because it prepared high school boys to enter seminary, principally the St. Meinrad Seminary and Benedictine Archabbey in southern Indiana. 

The school attained a high degree of academic rigor and boasted a classical-style curriculum along with Church related subjects. For a period, Latin was a required course for all four years at Latin School.  Greek was required during senior year until 1966. The majority of the instructors were priests from the Archdiocese, who taught in their areas of specialization.

Closing 

In 1978, the Archdiocese closed the school, because enrollment had decreased from 154 students in 1971 to 80 students in 1972.  Sharply rising costs were another factor.

Legacy 

About 500 young men were graduated from Latin School since its founding.  86 were ordained as priests by the Archdiocese of Indianapolis.  The former Latin School facility now houses Lumen Christi Catholic School, which was established in 2003.

Boca Burger is a veggie burger produced by Kraft Heinz in Chicago, Illinois. Like all of Boca Foods' products, Boca Burgers serve as a meat alternative.

History

The Boca Foods Company began in 1979 with the vegetarian "Sun Burger" product, as one of the first frozen, plant-based burger replacement products. Over the next decade, more burgers were introduced, as well as meatless versions of ground beef, chicken nuggets, various toppings on pizza, chili, lasagna, and sausages. Organic versions of some Boca products appeared in 2001.

Then Kraft Foods, the United States' largest packaged foods company, announced in early 2000 that it had reached agreement to purchase Boca Burger, Inc., a privately held manufacturer and marketer of soy-based meat alternatives. The announcement was made when Kraft Foods was represented by Gordon James and Clifford A. Wolff. The products are sold in the United States through retail grocery and club stores, natural foods stores and food service channels nationwide. Boca Burger, based in Chicago, Illinois, had 1999 revenues of about $40 million, almost double the previous year. By 2002, sales had grown to $70 million per year.

As of April 2020, Boca also offers meatless skillet meals.
