The Montgomery Block, also known as Monkey Block and Halleck's Folly, was a historic building active from 1853 to 1959, and was located in San Francisco, California. It was San Francisco's first fireproof and earthquake resistant building. It came to be known as a Bohemian center, from the late 19th to the middle of the 20th-century. 

Montgomery Block and later the site has been a registered California Historical Landmark since March 29, 1933.

History 

It was located at 628 Montgomery Street, on the southeast corner of its intersection with Washington Street, today the location of the Transamerica Pyramid.

The four-story building was erected in 1853 by Henry Wager Halleck, later general in chief of the Union Army in the Civil War, in the "Barbary Coast" red-light district. The four-stories Montgomery Block was the tallest building west of the Mississippi River when it was built in 1853. It was designed by architect G.P. Cummings. San Franciscans called it "Halleck's Folly" because it was built on a raft of redwood logs.

Also known as the Monkey Block, it housed many well-known lawyers, financiers, writers, actors, and artists. It also hosted many illustrious visitors, among them Jack London, George Sterling, Lola Montez, Lotta Crabtree, Gelett Burgess (and 'Les Jeunes'), Maynard Dixon, Frank Norris, Ambrose Bierce, Bret Harte, the Booths, and Mark Twain. 

On May 14, 1856, the editor of the Daily Evening Bulletin, James King of William, died in the Montgomery Block, having been shot by James P. Casey, a city supervisor who felt slighted by King's anti-corruption crusading journalism.

The building survived the 1906 earthquake and fire.

Demolition and legacy 
The Montgomery Block was demolished in 1959, even though a preservation movement had begun to emerge in San Francisco. It was replaced by a parking lot and later, the Transamerica Pyramid.

The building is remembered for its historic importance as a bohemian center of the city. At his inauguration as Poet Laureate of San Francisco in 1998, Lawrence Ferlinghetti mentioned "the classic old Montgomery Block building, the most famous literary and artistic structure in the West".

The South African Teachers' Association (SATA) was a trade union representing white teachers in the Cape Province of South Africa.

SATA was founded in 1887, the first teachers' union to be established in South Africa.  It grew slowly, and by 1926 had 2,400 members.  It distanced itself from the broader trade union movement, seeing itself as a professional organisation, although it also devoted significant time to campaigning for higher pay and better conditions for its members.  It avoided political activity, although after the Soweto uprising it gradually moved to oppose apartheid, and a minority of its members were involved in the progressive Education for an Aware South Africa group.

In 1997, the union merged with the Transvaal Teachers' Association and the Transvaal Association of Teachers, to form the National Union of Educators.

Ivan Ikić (born 13 September 1999) is a Croatian  professional footballer who plays as a right winger for Bosnian Premier League club Sarajevo.
Ikić started his professional career at Osijek.

Club career

Osijek

After he passed all categories in Osijek, he didn't get that many chances in the first team. He played his only appearance for the Osijek team in the 2016/17 season in the last round against the RNK Split team, registering one minute.

Loans to Lučko and Međimurje

In February 2018, he signed for Lučko on loan until the end of the season. For the team from Novi Zagreb, he played fourteen time and score one goal.

In February of the following year, he signed for Međimurje on loan until the end of the season. By the end of the season, he scored two goals in ten appearances.

Međimurje

After more than three years spent in Osijek, he left the club as a free agent because his contract expired. He signed for the club from Čakovec on a one-year contract. In the only season spent in the North of Croatia, he made seventeen appearances in the league and one in the cup. 
After his contract expired, he failed to reach an agreement with the club's leaders to extend a new one, so he was left without a club.

Široki Brijeg

In August 2020, he signed a multi-year contract for the Bosnian club Široki Brijeg. 
After an excellent half-season in Siroki Brijeg in April 2021, there was speculation in the media that Pogoń Szczecin was interested in Ikić. Unfortunately, that transfer did not happen, so Ikić stayed in Široki Brijeg until 2022. 
In 2022, his contract with the club from Široki Brijeg expired, so he looked for a new environment where he would settle down.

Sarajevo

With the arrival of a new coach in Sarajevo, Ikić also found himself on the list of desirable players in Sarajevo. So in June of the same year he signed a contract with Sarajevo for two years with the right to extend it for another year. In the club from Koševo, he did great and is the club's leading scorer this season.

Gençlerbirliği (loan)
On 8 February 2023, Ikić joined Gençlerbirliği in Turkey on a season-long loan.

Arthur Cates  (29 April 1829 – 15 May 1901) was an English architect.

Life
The son of James Cates by his wife Susan, daughter of John Rose, he was born at 38 Alfred Street, Bedford Square, London. After education at King's College School he entered as pupil the office of Sydney Smirke, in 1846. Cates's executed works were not numerous; but in 1870 he succeeded Sir James Pennethorne as architect to the land revenues of the crown under the Commissioners of Woods and Forests. He then controlled the architecture of the Crown Estate in London.

Cates, who joined the Architectural Association in 1847, became an associate of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) in 1856, a fellow in 1874, and a member of the council in 1879; he served as vice-president from 1888 to 1892. Architectural education was one of his concerns, and he long controlled the RIBA examination system. From 1882 to 1896 he was chairman of its board of examiners, and preliminary, intermediate, and final examinations were brought in. He was also a fellow of the Surveyors' Institution.

From 1859 to 1892 Cates acted as hon. secretary of the Architectural Publication Society. When in 1894 the tribunal of appeal under the London Building Act was appointed, he was elected the first chairman, and was re-elected in 1900 for a further term of five years.

Cates died at his residence, 12 York Terrace, Regent's Park, on 15 May 1901, and was buried at Woking.

Legacy
As surveyor to the Honourable Society of the Inner Temple, Cates designed in 1887 the archway and gatehouse leading from Tudor Street to King's Bench Walk. He formed a good architectural library, and many of his books were given or bequeathed to the library of the Royal Institute of British Architects. He bequeathed an annual prize bearing his name, which after his death was awarded in connection with the RIBA examinations.

Works
Cates assisted in the compilation of the Architectural Dictionary, which his friend Wyatt Papworth edited. He wrote for the Dictionary of National Biography memoirs of Wyatt Papworth, his father and brother.

Family
Cates married in 1881 Rosa, daughter of William Rose, who survived him. There was no issue of the marriage.

"Moonlighting" is the theme song to the ABC comedy-crime drama of the same name, which ran from 1985 to 1989 and starred Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd. The theme song was performed by Al Jarreau, who wrote the song with Lee Holdridge.  

Two versions of the song exist. In the original version, used in Seasons 1–3, only the first verse is heard and it is performed in a slightly faster tempo, with a slightly different arrangement to the later version.

The second version, used from Season 4 onwards, was recorded and produced by Nile Rodgers in 1986 as part of the sessions for Jarreau's album L Is for Lover; it was not included on that album, a decision that Rodgers later regretted.   It is the more familiar of the two since it was released as a single in 1987, and reached number 23 on the Billboard Hot 100 and spent one week at number one on the Adult Contemporary chart. It was included on the soundtrack album for the series, and eventually appeared on Jarreau's 1996 compilation album The Best of Al Jarreau.

Awards
In 1988 the song earned two Grammy Award nominations for Best Pop Vocal Performance, Male and for Best Song Written Specifically for a Motion Picture or Television.

Padfield v Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food [1968] UKHL 1 is a United Kingdom administrative law case, concerning judicial review.

Facts
Padfield and other milk producers in the South East Region argued they should get more milk subsidies to reflect growing transport costs, and applied to court to compel the minister to appoint an investigation.

The Agricultural Marketing Act 1958 section 19 said a committee of the Milk Marketing Board can investigate "if the Minister so directs" after a complaint on a scheme's operation if it cannot be considered by a consumers' committee (subsection 3(b)), and if it reports a scheme is "contrary to the interests of consumers of the regulated products" or "any persons affected by the scheme" and is "not in the public interest" the minister can amend the scheme, revoke it or direct the board to rectify it (subsection 6).

There were eleven milk regions with different prices for milk, fixed depending on costs of transporting milk from producers to consumers. All milk producers had to sell their milk to the Milk Marketing Board. Differentials had been fixed a few years earlier and transport costs had changed.

The SE region argued the difference between it and the Far Western Region should be altered: this would incidentally affect other regions. Board members were elected by individual regions, so it was impossible for SE producers to get a majority for their proposals.

They asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (Fred Peart) to appoint a committee of investigation, but he refused. They requested mandamus (specifically, a court order requiring the Minister to appoint the Committee).

Judgment

Court of Appeal
Diplock LJ and Russell LJ held the minister's discretion could not be challenged. Lord Denning MR dissented.

House of Lords
The House of Lords, reversing the Court of Appeal, held that a minister's discretion to refuse an investigation was subject to judicial review where a refusal would frustrate the policy of an Act. An order should be made to direct the minister to consider the complaint.

Lord Reid said:

Lord Upjohn said that if the minister

Lord Morris of Borth-y-Gest dissented.

Europe Elects is a poll aggregator that collects and publishes election-related data such as opinion polls in European countries.

Genesis and history 
Europe Elects was founded in 2014 as a Twitter account. The project quickly rose to prominence, as it was the first account that gathered European polling and election data in one spot.

Format 
Europe Elects provides election results during election days on social media, referring to the European Parliament affiliation of candidates and parties.

The organization publishes polls done by polling companies in all European countries and its subdivisions in order to show both the level of support for national parties as well as for the European Union in each country. Europe Elects's visualization of the data is unique, as it uses standardized labels and colours for national parties of one European Parliament group across national borders. The publications regularly point out the affiliation of national parties with their respective European Parliament groups, which has been adopted by other media outlets over time. Furthermore, overviews of the positions of the single parties and candidates are being provided. Europe Elects publishes on the basis of the collected data a European projection for the European Parliament on a regular basis and shows how the results as if there were elections on that day. After the 2019 European Parliament election, Europe Elects claimed to have had the most precise forecast for the European Parliament.

In 2019, the platform launched the Europe Elects Podcast. In 2019 and 2020, America Elects, Oceania Elects, Africa Elects, and Asia Elects were launched. Asia Elects received attention in the context of the Hong Kong local elections, being quoted in media such as The Washington Post.

The platform hosts an extensive calendar of local, regional, national, and European election dates in Europe.

Spread and perception 
Europe Elects is considered a major media source concerning the European Parliament and electoral analysis in Europe. It is quoted frequently in both European and worldwide publications, is referenced by the Centre for European Policy Studies, and is listed in the database of the European Data Journalism Network, a consortium of media and journalists promoting data-driven multilingual coverage of European topics.

In 2021, Europe Elects formed a partnership with Euractiv and Decision Desk HQ.

Partnering projects as Africa Elects, America Elects, Asia Elects, and Oceania Elects are in progress.

Awards 
In 2022, Europe Elects was awarded the Dalhousie Impact Award.

Thomas Howard Fraleigh (June 28, 1877 – January 29, 1946) was an Ontario farmer and political figure. He represented Lambton East in the Legislative Assembly of Ontario from 1929 to 1934 as a Conservative member.

He was born in St. Marys, Ontario, the son of Sidney Fraleigh, and was educated there. In 1902, he married Winnifred Anderson. He belonged to the local Masonic lodge. Fraleigh grew flax and hemp near Forest, Ontario. Fraleigh also pioneered techniques to make more efficient use of pasture land when raising of livestock. Fraleigh coordinated Canadian flax production in World War I: flax was shipped to Ireland to produce linen for use in the manufacture of airplane wings. Fraleigh also experimented with the production of hemp for use in manufacturing fibres. The cultivation of hemp  was later banned in Canada because of its association with cannabis. He died at his home in Forest, Ontario, on January 29, 1946.
