The Bas-Vendômois is a small district in central- western France, consisting of the 14 communes of the canton of Montoire-sur-le-Loir, in the arrondissement of Vendôme, département of Loir-et-Cher, France.

History
The area corresponds to the central portion of the east-west flowing Loir valley. Before the French Revolution the area depended administratively on Vendôme and was part of the Orléanais province, but ecclesiastically on the Diocese of Le Mans in the Tours province. The division thus corresponds to that between the late Roman provinces of Tertia Lugdunensis (Tours) and Quarta Lugdunensis (Sens) and the civitates of the Cenomani and of the Carnutes respectively.

The Bas-Vendômois was part of the Frankish kingdom of Neustria. The area was fought over during struggles between the Angevin Plantagenêts and the French monarchy. There are fortified castles at Montoire-sur-le-Loir and Lavardin. There are a number of Romanesque churches, e.g. Saint-Jacques-des-Guérets, the chapel of St. Giles at Montoire. The area shared in the general prosperity of the later 15th century and the Renaissance- e.g. Manor of La Possonnière at Couture-sur-Loir.

WHAN is an adult album alternative formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Ashland, Virginia, serving Ashland and Hanover County, Virginia as well as the northern half of the Metro Richmond, Virginia region.  WHAN is owned by Stu-Comm, Inc. WHAN currently simulcasts WNRN.

History
On February 1, 2015, Charlottesville-based public broadcaster WTJU began simulcasting its programming on WHAN in an attempt to use its FM translator to reach the Richmond market. WTJU operated the station daily from  to  as part of a three-year local marketing agreement.  Through a separate agreement with WTJU, Virginia Commonwealth University webcaster WVCW broadcast on WHAN Monday through Thursday from  to  and Friday from  to , with additional broadcasting time allowed for special events. Local programming filled the remaining timeslots    on Friday evenings and    on weekends.

WTJU terminated the local marketing agreement effective August 16, 2017, citing financial reasons. WHAN returned to a locally programmed music format, branded "102.9 The Mater", which it described as a mix of classic Southern rock and 1990s alternative rock but has transitioned since 2018 to "The RVA's Best Music Variety" featuring artists and genres from the past 65 years.

On August 10, 2020, Fifth Estate Broadcasting filed an agreement to donate WHAN and W275BQ to Stu-Comm, Inc., operator of Charlottesville-based adult album alternative station WNRN, which complements its existing Richmond pair of WFTH (1590 AM) and W203CB (88.5 FM). This action came less than a week after the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) repealed a longstanding rule that prevented co-owned AM stations with overlapping signals from broadcasting the same programming. The sale was completed on October 9, 2020. WHAN and W275BQ now simulcast WNRN.

Translator
In addition to the main station, WHAN is relayed by an FM translator to replicate the daytime signal of 1430 AM on the FM dial 24 hours a day.

Our Lady of Vendôme (), also known in Brazil as Our Lady of Porto or Our Lady of Porto of the Eternal Salvation, is a title of the Blessed Virgin Mary, of particular historical veneration in the city of Porto, Portugal, of which she is the patron saint. As a sign of this devotion, Our Lady of Vendôme features in the coat of arms of Porto.

History
The devotion to Our Lady of Vendôme has its origins in the period of the Reconquista, and is associated with an historical episode popularly known as the Army of the Gascons (). Around the year 990, nobleman Munio Viegas led an army of knights from Gascony that had disembarked on the mouth of the Douro River to fight the Moors who at the time ruled Porto. With the knights came a French prelate, Nonegus (often referred to as a "Bishop of Vendôme", although that city was never the seat of an episcopal see) who had brought along a stone image of Our Lady that had originally been in the city of Vendôme.

Following the Christian victory over the Moors, as an act of thanksgiving for the intercession of the Blessed Virgin in the battle, the city was dedicated to the Virgin Mary as Civitas Virginis (the city of the Virgin), and put under the patronage of Our Lady of Vendôme. Munio Viegas and the Gascons are credited with having rebuilt the city walls: the image of Our Lady of Vendôme was placed over one of its main gates, which was christened the Door of Vendôme ().

The image was venerated by the city's population throughout the centuries, and was particularly invoked during epidemics.

The original image of Our Lady of Vendôme is now in the Cathedral of the Assumption of Our Lady, Porto. The Door of Vendôme (which location shifted to the city centre as Porto grew through the centuries) was demolished in 1855.

Con Lehane (7 May 1912 – 18 September 1983) was a left-wing nationalist, a 1930s member of the IRA Army Council, solicitor, actor and politician.

Background
Lehane was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland on 7 May 1912, the only surviving child of Denis Lehane, an excise officer originally from County Cork, and his wife Mary (née Connolly), a native of the Falls Road, Belfast. He grew up in an Irish-speaking household. Joseph Connolly the senator was his uncle on his mother's side, while Michael O'Lehane the trade unionist was his uncle on his father's side. His family emigrated to Hartlepool in 1912 and then to Dublin in 1920. He was educated at Synge Street CBS and University College Dublin, where he studied Law. He qualified as a solicitor. He married Marie O'Neill in 1937, and they had a son and two daughters.

As a solicitor, he took to defending members of the Irish Republican Army (IRA) in the Irish Courts. In 1927 he obtained permission for IRA prisoners to speak privately to their solicitors from the Irish High Court. He was active in other Republican and Nationalist circles: he was a member of the Moibhí Branch of Conradh na Gaeilge, and by the 1930s seems to have become active in the IRA itself. In 1931 he was involved in Saor Éire, an attempt by the Irish left-wing to create a communist political party that would have been linked to the IRA.

He was a member of the IRA's arms committee and in 1935 he was sentenced to 18 months imprisonment by the Military Tribunal for his membership of the IRA.

He retired from the IRA in April 1938 with Seán MacBride as they were not prepared to support the planned bombing campaign in the United Kingdom during World War II. In 1940 he was a member of Córas na Poblachta, another attempt to build a Republican political party backed by the IRA.

Interned again in 1940 under the Offences against the State Acts 1939–1998 Lehane was made a commanding officer of the IRA prisoners in Arbour Hill Prison. While interned Lehane and five other Irish Republican prisoners went on a 26 day hunger strike, protesting being imprisoned without trial.

Clann na Poblachta TD
He was elected to Dáil Éireann as a Clann na Poblachta Teachta Dála (TD) for the Dublin South-Central constituency at the 1948 general election. He lost his seat at the 1951 general election.

Lehane was an actor and had a keen interest in Irish language theatre. A committed Irish speaker Lehane was at home in it, whether on radio, stage or in street conversation. He was one of the leading actors of the Irish Language Theatre Company between 1943 and 1958. He was a member of Dublin City Council and of the Citizens for Civil Liberties committee.

In 1977 the remains of Frank Ryan, one of the leading left-wing Republicans of the 1930s, were repatriated from East Germany, and Lehane delivered the eulogy.

He died on 18 September 1983 and is buried in St. Finan's cemetery.

Maurice Maignen, (1822–1890),  was a French Social Reformer and a Roman Catholic Religious Brother during the nineteenth century. He was the founder of the Catholic Circle of Montparnasse to prevent future tragedies from happening, like the Paris Commune.

Biography
Maurice Maignen (Jules-Charles-Maurice Maignen) was born in Paris, on March 3, 1822, to Charles-Desire-Adelaide Maignen and Cecile-Josephine (née Chamigner), before the Revolution.  He was baptized at Saint-Germain l'Auxerrois three days later. In 1818, his father, an artist, graduated from Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris, before joining the Military House of the King, as a bodyguard. His father returned to painting only after two years of service.

Maignen was schooled for only six years. At 15, he started working, to provide for his family because of his father's illness. He started working on the newly formed railroad, Compagnie du chemin de fer de Paris à Saint-Germain, the predecessor to Compagnie des chemins de fer de l'Ouest, where he remained until 1843, before becoming a draftsman at the Ministry of War. He found, with Jean-Léon Le Prevost and Clement Myionnet, the Congregation of the Brothers of St. Vincent de Paul with the apostolate of education of the youth and evangelisation of the poor and workers.

In 1855, at the age of 33, Maignen created an "Association of Young Workers" and, in 1865, it evolved into the "Circle of Young Workers", better known as "Catholic Circle of Montparnasse". In the winter of 1871, he met two officers, former prisoners of war, Albert de Mun and René de la Tour du Pin, who remained lifelong friends with him.  Both Albert and René found the Society of Catholic Worker Circles, through the inspiration of Brother Maurice.
 
Maignen died on December 7, 1890. He body was interred in the Chapel at the Montparnasse Circle and his heart was encased in a reliquary in the Motherhouse of his "Congregation of the Brothers of St. Vincent de Paul."
