Dal Bahadur Gurung, popularly known as Hum Jayega (हम जाएगा) (1922–1992) is a person often cited as a funny character in folklore and jokes in Nepal, Darjeeling, Kalimpong, Sikkim, Assam and Manipur. Because of several unrealistic jokes and tales about him, many people considered him to be imaginary.

Birth
He was born in Chongtong Tea Estate of Darjeeling, India in March 1922. His ancestors were from Makluwa, a hamlet in Panchthar district of Nepal. Hum Jayega's great grandfather Dhaujbeer Gurung migrated along with his family in 1814 AD.

Early life

In 1936, he ran away to Calcutta to become a pilot, but it was not possible due to his poor academic background. With hurdles and economic hardships, he hanged around an engineering college and learned driving with a professor who was fond of his jokes. In 1948, he returned to Darjeeling. With his driving skills, he became cab driver with a post second world war short-chassis Land Rover. He was the first driver ever to take a vehicle to the summit of Tiger Hill, Darjeeling and Tumling. In this new circle of friends he was popular by his nickname Hum Jayega. Whenever the tourists asked who will go on the muddy underdeveloped roads to the hills, he used to answer "hum jayega" (meaning "I'll go" in Hindi) and this is how he got his nickname.

Career

His famous jokes were available as three booklets but some pirated versions were also published. Currently, his jokes are popular over the Internet and several facebook pages. Most of these jokes are in Nepali, lingua franca of Darjeeling, Nepal and surrounding areas but many of them have been translated to English. In 1985 he was screened for about two minutes in a popular Nepali movie Kusume Rumal and it cleared that he is not just an imaginary character.

He continued working as a driver until he was 53 and engaged in publishing booklets of his jokes. His daughter remembers him as a responsible father who looked after the children even after his wife's death. He was concerned about the good education and future of the children and grandchildren. He was a father of four daughters and one son. However it is also said that Hum Jayega lost all his wealth due to his drinking habit, leaving his family to live in poverty. But the misery was never able to estrange Hum Jayega from laughing and making others laugh. He died in April 1992.

In popular culture 
The first collection of jokes based on the escapades of Hum Jayega was published by Bijoy Kumar Rai as 'Humjayegako Diary' in 1982, which consisted of two volumes. It was published under the banner of Sajha Pustak Prakashan (publishers) in Darjeeling.

The Greek Orthodox Cathedral of the Annunciation  is a church of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America located in Baltimore, Maryland.  It is the oldest of the 18 Greek Orthodox parishes in Maryland.  The cathedral is an important center of Greek-American culture in Baltimore, and hosts an annual Greek Food Festival.

History
The Greek Orthodox Cathedral of the Annunciation building was constructed in 1888 (the building originally housed a Protestant congregation), however the current congregation was established in 1906 and only moved to the building in 1937. The cathedral was meant primarily to serve the Greek-American community in Baltimore.

In 1975 the cathedral was designated as the state of Maryland's first Greek Orthodox cathedral.

In 1992 the cathedral received a historic designation from the Maryland Commission on Historic and Architectural Preservation.

Architecture
The building's overall design is in the Neo-Byzantine style.

The United States League (USL), alternately called the United States Baseball League, was one of the several Negro baseball leagues created during the time organized baseball was segregated.  The USL was organized as a minor league in 1945 by Branch Rickey to serve as a platform to scout black players.


History 

In 1945, Branch Rickey anticipated the integration of black players into Major League Baseball. Along with Gus Greenlee, the owner of the original Pittsburgh Crawfords, he created the USL as to scout black players who might break the color line. It is unclear if the league played a 1945 season or was only a pretense for integration.  Rickey signed Jackie Robinson, who never played in the USL, in October of that year. The 1946 season lasted a few weeks before the league folded. The next year, Robinson broke the Major League color line with Rickey's Brooklyn Dodgers.

Franchises 

The league began in 1945 with at least six teams. Conflicting sources list the Boston Blues as a team in 1945 or only 1946. No standings or accounts exist for the 1945 season.  The Pittsburgh Crawfords, Philadelphia Hilldales and St. Louis Stars assumed the nicknames of unrelated defunct teams. The Brown Dodgers merged with the Clippers mid-season, just before the league folded.

Mississippi Highway 314 (MS 314) is a state highway in Lafayette County, serving the city of Oxford. It is generally a two-lane roadway.

The road begins northwest of Oxford and travels southeast towards the city and the campus of the University of Mississippi before traveling through the city's downtown area. The highway ends at an interchange with MS 7 where the road continues as MS 334.

Route description
The western terminus of MS 314 is in rural Lafayette County northwest of Oxford. West of here, the roadway continues as Lafayette County Road 100 heading towards the Sardis Reservoir. MS 314 heads southeast as a two-lane road past churches and a sports field complex. Passing through a roundabout, the road gains bike lanes on both sides of the highway as it passes small condominiums and the University-Oxford Airport as it enters the city limits of Oxford. MS 314 makes a sharp curve to the south to come to an intersection with Jackson Avenue, former MS  6, across the road from the University of Mississippi campus. MS 314 becomes four lanes wide with a center turn lane as it skirts around the north side of the college campus heading east. The road narrows to two lanes and passes under the Oxford Depot Trail (formerly Mississippi Central Railroad), MS 314 turns to the south along Ninth Avenue before Jackson Avenue reaches the downtown portion of Oxford. It heads south for three blocks before turning back to the east on University Avenue. Heading through the city's business district, MS 314 widens to four lanes before it ends at a diamond interchange with MS 7. University Avenue continues east as MS 334 which also has its terminus at this interchange.

MS 314 is state-maintained on its portion west of Oxford city limits and in the vicinity of the MS 7 interchange. It is otherwise maintained by the city of Oxford.

History
The highway was established as an unpaved road around 1957 running from the Sardis Reservoir into Oxford. By 1994, most of the road had been paved. By 2010, the road had been truncated to a total length of   MS 314 was extended to its current length of  in 2014.

KC2XAK was the world's first UHF television station, which went on the air on December 29, 1949. It was a broadcast translator of New York City's WNBT (today's WNBC), and broadcast on 529–535 MHz in Bridgeport, Connecticut.

The station's launch was code-named "Operation Bridgeport", as a test by RCA and NBC, to determine if the UHF spectrum was feasible to use for communications and broadcasting as part of a nationwide television station plan. It was operational during a several-year freeze on new television stations by the FCC which lasted from October 1948 to April 1952.

The station used a 1 kW transmitter with a 20-dB gain antenna on a  tower elevated  above average terrain at the top of Success Hill. This resulted in an effective radiated power of 10 kW.

Operation Bridgeport was a success in the sense that it demonstrated the viability of UHF broadcasting, and UHF became a major part of the FCC's plan for new television licensing in the early 1950s. KC2XAK was shut down by RCA and NBC on August 23, 1952, a few months after the 1948 freeze on new television licenses was lifted. KC2XAK thus was not only the first UHF television station operational in the United States, but the only one for several years.

Once KC2XAK's transmitter was shut down, Empire Coil purchased it, and the transmitter and support equipment were dismantled in Bridgeport under supervision of RCA. Dismantling began on August 25 and was shipped via truck and fast freight train to Portland, Oregon. The transmitter was re-assembled as a  tower on Council Crest, more than  above Portland on September 9, 1952. Thus, KC2XAK's transmitter was re-used for Portland's KPTV, which became the first commercial full-power UHF television station in the country. KPTV would utilize the transmitter for five years on channel 27, before merging with another broadcaster on VHF channel 12 in 1957, where it has broadcast since (though the station is scheduled to return its physical transmission to UHF some time in 2022).

Bridgeport is now covered over-the-air by WNBC and the other New York City broadcast stations.
