John Cooper  (c. 1726–1779), was a British politician who sat in the House of Commons between 1775 and 1779.
 
Cooper  was the son of Thomas Cooper of Salisbury and his second wife Sarah Priaulx. He matriculated at Queen’s College, Oxford on 13 March 1744, aged 17.  He became a clothier in Salisbury and married Rachel Poore, daughter of Edward Poore who was an MP for Salisbury and Downton. In 1767 he was Mayor of Salisbury.

Cooper followed his father-in-law in his political aspirations. In July 1774 he declared he was going to stand for Parliament at Salisbury. However, in the general election of 1774 he stood as Member of Parliament for Downton. He was defeated, but was subsequently seated on petition.  He voted regularly with the Opposition but does not appear to have spoken in the House.

Cooper died on 7 August 1779.

During the Holocaust in Greece, the entire community of Jews of Zakynthos, numbering 275 people, was not deported after Mayor Loukas Karrer and Bishop Chrysostomos (1890–1958) refused Nazi orders to turn in a list of the town's Jewish community for deportation to the death camps. Instead they secretly hid the town's Jews in various rural villages and turned in a list that included only their own two names. The entire Jewish population survived the war. The Jewish community of Zakynthos was the only Jewish community under German occupation in Europe to not have been deported or annihilated through local measures. 

Statues of the Bishop and the Mayor commemorate their heroism on the site of the town's historic synagogue, destroyed in the earthquake of 1953. In 1978, Yad Vashem, the Holocaust Martyrs' and Heroes' Remembrance Authority in Israel, honored Bishop Chrysostomos and Mayor Karrer with the title of "Righteous Among the Nations", an honor given to non-Jews who, at personal risk, saved Jews during the Holocaust. After the war, all of the Jews of Zakynthos moved either to Israel or to Athens.

Background 
On 9 September 1943, six days after Italy's surrender, the Germans took possession of the island. Unlike the Jewish communities in larger population centers, such as Salonika, Athens, and Corfu, the German round-up orders on Zakynthos were informal, rather than by means of public decrees. German-appointed mayor Loukas Karrer was responsible for finding 200 daily workers of the Germans' needs, namely building fortifications or working at the artillery base at Kalamaki, with the Jewish community given a 5-person quota based on their percentage of the population. After learning that the Germans would torture laborers who were found to be Jewish, Karrer replaced the Jewish workers with Christians in return for monetary re-compensation for daily substitutions.

Rescue of Jews of Zakynthos 
The military governor of Zakynthos, Alfred Lit, demanded that Karrer provide a list of the Jews of the island under pain of death. Karrer consulted with Bishop Chrysostomos, and burned the list of Jews under the bishop's advice. Chrysostomos also facilitated a meeting between Karrer, Lit, and the president of the Jewish community, Moshe Gani; he instructed Gani to come to the meeting dressed in rags to give Lit the impression that the Jews of Zakynthos were impoverished and no threat to the Germans. Karrer and Chrysostomos also bribed Lit with a diamond ring to avoid turning over the lists. They explained to Lit that most of the Jews had left Zakynthos due to the bombings and the war, and that amassing the Zakynthos Jews would be futile. After repeated demands from the Germans for list of the Jews, Karrer and Chrysostomos submitted a list with only their two names.

Cassibelan Burton (19 November 1609 – 16 February 1682) was a 17th-century English translator of Latin works.

Burton was the only son of William Burton (d. 1645), the historian of Leicestershire, by his wife Jane, daughter of Humfrey Adderley of Weddington, Warwickshire, and descended from Nicholas de Burton of Tutbury.

Burton inherited his father's collections in 1645, and handed them over to Walter Chetwynd, "to be used by him in writing The Antiquities of Staffordshire". His uncle was Robert Burton, author of The Anatomy of Melancholy.

He translated Martial into English verse, but the translation remained in manuscript. His friend Sir Aston Cockayne thought highly of it.

Anthony Wood states that he was extravagant. He died on 28 February 1682.

The Fort Ridgely and South Pass Wagon Road (also known as Nobles Trail) was a wagon trail that was intended to connect Fort Ridgely in Minnesota Territory (now Minnesota) with South Pass in the Rocky Mountains of Nebraska Territory (now Wyoming). It was designed to link St. Paul with California via the Oregon Trail, however only a portion of the route was completed. The trail was promoted and supervised by William H. Nobles. Appropriations for the trail were authorized by the U.S. Congress on July 22, 1856. It was the first road built in Dakota Territory.

The Fort Ridgely Road began in southwest Minnesota near present-day New Ulm and entered the Dakota Territory near Lake Benton. It crossed the Big Sioux River near Lake Campbell, continued south of Lake Thompson, and crossed the James River near present-day Forestburg before continuing on to the Missouri River south of Fort Lookout (near present-day Chamberlain). Only this portion, roughly 254 miles long, was built. From the Missouri, the trail was to have followed the White River across western Dakota Territory, entering Nebraska Territory south of the Badlands, and continuing west to South Pass.

The Old Recreation Ground was a football stadium located in Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent, England, and home to Port Vale F.C. from 1913 to 1950. It was the sixth ground the club used.

Structure and facilities

The stadium was in rather bad condition, especially following years of neglect during World War II. The dressing rooms were bare, there were no toilet facilities throughout the entire ground, and racing pigeons were kept by The Sentinel and a number of supporters so as to relay the scoreline to different parts of the city.

History
Port Vale F.C. opened the ground in 1913, and six years later were admitted into the English Football League. The visit of Potteries derby rivals Stoke on 6 March 1920 saw a crowd of 22,697 turn up to see an away victory. Other big matches for Port Vale went more favourably in later years though, as they drew 2–2 with Arsenal in the FA Cup on 29 January 1927 and beat Sunderland 2–0 on 13 January 1936, again in the FA Cup.

Port Vale were forced to sell the land to the city council, under the chairmanship of Tom W.Flint after suffering a financial crisis, they received £13,500. This came after the club's president Major William Huntbach died in 1943, leaving £3,000 of loans to be repaid to his estate. The council initially refused to allow the club to play at their ground, but eventually relented for rent of £400 a year. In 1950, the city council decided to construct a shopping centre on the site forcing the club to move to their current home of Vale Park. Ironically the club raised £50,000 to construct the new stadium, leading some to question why the directors did not simply attempt to raise a relatively much smaller sum of £3,000 in order to pay off the Huntbach family. The final match at the Old Recreation Ground was described as an "uninspiring finale" as Vale lost 1–0 to Aldershot in front of a crowd of 9,645 on 22 April 1950.

Halloween, Alaska is a Minnesota-based band consisting of James Diers (voice, guitar, keys), Jake Hanson (brother of Tapes 'n Tapes drummer Jeremy Hanson, guitar), Bill Shaw (electric bass guitar), and Dave King (acoustic and electronic drums). All of the group's members live in the Twin Cities. Original keyboardist and programmer Ev left the band in 2008. Original bassist Matt Friesen left the band in 2009. The group first formed in 2002, and work on a self-titled debut soon began to be recorded. Completed in 2003, the disc earned considerable acclaim not only in the Twin Cities but also from indie tastemakers and college radio programmers across the US, combining ambient electronic elements with moody alt-pop songwriting. Two tracks from the disc were featured in the Fox television series The O.C.: "Des Moines" in season one, and "All the Arms Around You" in season two. The track "State Trooper", featured on their self-titled debut, is a cover version of the song by Bruce Springsteen. East Side Digital reissued the album in 2005, adding remixes and bonus tracks. A second disc titled Too Tall to Hide was released in 2005 and features another cover song - "I Can't Live Without My Radio" by LL Cool J. Champagne Downtown was released on April 7, 2009. (iTunes initially listed the album under the band "Alaska & Halloween." Amazon currently lists all Halloween, Alaska albums under "Alaska Halloween.") An EP of remixes by Twin Cities artists was released in November 2009. Their most recent album, Le Centre, was released in 2018.

Members of the group are or have been part of the bands The Bad Plus, Love-Cars, Happy Apple, 12 Rods, Cowboy Curtis, Minneapolis Dub Ensemble, Post Mortem Grinner, and The Gang Font feat. Interloper.

The band is not named after a real town in Alaska. According to Diers, King "came up with the name ... before we even starting playing together, actually," and felt that the combination of the two words was "evocative of some of the moods and textures he wanted us to be looking at."

A Memoir Blue is an interactive story and video game developed by studio Cloisters Interactive and published by Annapurna Interactive. The game was released on March 24, 2022 for Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S, and on November 3, 2022 for iOS.

Gameplay 
A Memoir Blue is an interactive story video game described by its developers as "an interactive poem". It depicts a fantastical version of swimming athlete Miriam's childhood memories. Players progress through the story by interacting with objects in each scene and moving them around, like clicking on jellyfish that light up or stamping a train ticket. The game utilizes a mixture of 2D and 3D animations, where Miriam's childhood memories are represented in 2D, and Miriam in present day is represented in 3D.

Development 
A Memoir Blue began as Cloisters Interactive founder Shelley Chen's Master's degree thesis project. After a prototype of the game was shown at IndieCade, Annapurna Interactive reached out to publish the project. A Memoir Blue was announced during the first Annapurna Interactive Showcase on July 29, 2021.

Chen, who had previously worked on strategy and shooter games, was inspired to create a story-driven game that utilizes visuals and music to deliver the narrative after playing Journey. The story of A Memoir Blue was initially based on her own childhood memories with her mother, and she describes the game as "a way for [her] to thank [her mother]". After partnering with Annapurna Interactive, she describes shaping the story away from being solely based on her personal experiences in the hopes of creating "something that everybody could relate to". Chen cites animated films La Maison en Petits Cubes and Father and Daughter as inspirations for the project, describing how both films "share the common theme of 'familial love'", and manage to evoke strong emotions in the viewer despite their brief length.

Reception  

A Memoir Blue received "mixed or average" reviews for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 according to review aggregator Metacritic; the Xbox Series X/S version received "generally favorable" reviews.

Simon Parkin of The Guardian praised the game for feeling deeply personal and wrote, "...it achieves that miraculous narrative trick of making the specific feel universally approachable." John Friscia of The Escapist gave a positive review and called the game a "finely crafted piece of art." Ozzie Mejia of Shacknews gave the game a 7 out of 10, lauding the game's art style, narrative, and soundtrack while noting that the story could have offered more and that puzzle design was overly simplistic. In a negative review, Stuart Gipp of Nintendo Life gave the game 4 stars out of 10 and criticized the unremarkable premise, unengaging gameplay, and lackluster story while commending its visuals.
