Leon Rotman (born 22 July 1934) is a retired Romanian sprint canoeist. He won two individual gold medals at the 1956 Olympics and a bronze medal in 1960.

Life and sporting career
Rotman is Jewish, and was born to a working-class Jewish family. He took up several sports in the years immediately after World War II and was fascinated by canoeing after seeing the famous Czech champions Jan Brzák-Felix and Bohumil Kudrna compete on Lake Snagov near Bucharest in 1953. He joined the Dinamo Bucharest sports club, in the hope of getting one of the Czech-made canoes left by the two in Romania. He did not, but he was remarked by famous coach Radu Huţan after becoming national champion in improvised canoes.

He would eventually compete at the Olympics on the first canoe ever made in Romania (at the factories in Reghin, Mureș County). At the 1956 Summer Olympic Games in Melbourne, despite having a sprained ankle, Rotman won both the C-1 1000 m and 10000 m events, equaling Swede Gert Fredriksson's performance who, at the same Olympics, won gold in both individual kayak events. He was the first Romanian to win two medals in one Olympics. At the next Olympics he won a bronze in the C-1 1000 m event. He was slightly less successful in other competitions (fifth in the 1957 and 1961 European Championships in C-1 1000 m, and seventh at the 1963 World Championships in C-1 10000 m). He won, however, the Snagov Regatta seven times and 14 national titles before retiring in 1963.

After retiring from competitions Rotman worked as a canoeing coach in Bucharest.

Uveoparotitis is a symptom of sarcoidosis.  It describes a chronic inflammation of the parotid gland (parotitis) and part of the eye called the uvea (uveitis).  There is also a phenomenon called Waldenström's uveoparotitis, where the symptom is related to Heerfordt's syndrome. The condition was first described in 1909.

Signs and symptoms
Uveoparotitis is characterized by parotitis, uveitis and low grade fever.  Parotitis leads to swelling and enlargement of the parotid glands, while uveitis causes eye redness, pain and blurred vision.

Lü Xiaomin or Ruth Lu (; born 1970) is the author of over 1,800 Canaan Hymns, popular among churches in China today.

Biography 
Lü Xiaomin was born in 1970 to a family of peasants belonging to the Hui minority. She grew up in Fangcheng, Nanyang, Henan Province.

Lü dropped out of education after elementary school because of her failing health. Because the Hui are China's largest Muslim community, she was initially unfamiliar with Christianity. Her aunt, who had converted to Christianity, introduced her to the faith. After praying, her health condition, sinusitis and a stomach disease, were gone. Lü joined a house church in 1989, at the age of 19, taking the christian name "Sister Ruth". Her spiritual roots are in Pentecostalism and the local churches movement.

Canaan Hymns 

In 1990, she started composing hymns. The first hymn came to her mind one night after church service when she could not sleep. According to Lü: "The Holy Spirit touched me the moment I consecrated myself to God. That's when I sang my first hymn." Shy as she was, she only sang the song to a girl in her home village. The girl relayed the hymn to her parents, Christians who attributed Lü's sudden musical abilities to the work of the Holy Spirit. By the time that word about Lü's song had reached a fellow Christian with a tape recorder, she had already written 23 hymns. All of them were taped and marked down in Chinese musical notation. Soon all of the local congregations were using the hymnal and traveling evangelists took it all over China.

Lü continued to compose new hymns, one every two or three days. During the next decade of her life, she would write some 700 of them while evangelizing in the countryside of Henan. During this period, she was detained at least twice for her religious activities. The first arrest took place in September 1992 in Fangcheng after she had written 50 songs. During her 67-day detention, she composed 14 additional hymns and her seven non-Christian cellmates had become converted to Christianity. The other arrest came after a 1998 re-interpretation of the illegal publications clause of the Constitution of China.

, there are 1,810 Canaan hymns.

The 2015 Independence Bowl was a college football bowl game that was played on Saturday, December 26, 2015 at Independence Stadium in Shreveport, Louisiana in the United States.  The 40th annual Independence Bowl featured the Virginia Tech Hokies of the Atlantic Coast Conference against the Tulsa Golden Hurricane of the American Athletic Conference. Sponsored by Camping World, the game was officially known as the Camping World Independence Bowl. The first half of the game, in which 76 points were scored, was the highest scoring half in college football bowl history until the second half of the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl the next year.

Team selection
The game was to feature a team from the Atlantic Coast Conference against a team from the Southeastern Conference.  However, college football analyst Phil Steele projected prior to the game that neither an ACC nor an SEC team would be selected for the game, projecting that the Minnesota Golden Gophers of the Big Ten Conference and the San Jose State Spartans of the Mountain West Conference would be selected for the game instead.
Virginia Tech was chosen from the ACC, and Tulsa was chosen after the SEC did not have enough eligible teams.

Virginia Tech Hokies

With the announcement that he would retire after the season, Virginia Tech head coach Frank Beamer took the field one last time to coach the Hokies in the Independence Bowl. Beamer has led the Hokies to 23 straight bowl appearances in 25 seasons as an FBS team (Beamer has coached at VT for a total of 29 seasons). He held a 10–12 career bowl record going into this game. The Hokies won their final game of the season over rival Virginia on a last-second INT, gaining bowl eligibility and extending Beamer's career one more game.

Tulsa Golden Hurricane

This was Tulsa's first bowl appearance since a 31–17 win over Iowa State in the 2012 Liberty Bowl. It was also the first career bowl appearance for first-year head coach Philip Montgomery. The Golden Hurricane program was 9–10 all-time in bowl games but was 5–3 since 2003.

Riverside–11th Street Bridge is a district in the northeastern section of Wilmington, Delaware.

Geography
Riverside–11th Street Bridge lies north of Brandywine Creek and south off the city line with Edgemoore. The western border is formed by Northeast Boulevard (U.S. Route 13), the other side of which is Price's Run and East Lake neighborhoods, which include the Brandywine Village Historic District. The Northeast Corridor (carrying Amtrak and SEPTA Wilmington/Newark Line) runs alongs the district's eastern side, separating it from the Howard R. Young Correctional Institution in Gander Hill, Amtrak's Wilmington Maintenance Facility, and Norfolk Southern's Shellpot Branch. It roughly corresponds to census tract 30.2

History
A wooden bridge built in the 1860s over Brandywine Creek was replaced by a steel drawbridge known as the Eleventh Street Bridge in 1882. The current Northern Boulevard Bridge was built in 1932.

The neighborhood was the site of the junction of the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) Brandywine Branch and its main line at a point called Landlith and ran parallel with the creek on city streets and what has become Brandywine Park. The junction lends its name to the Landlith Interlocking.

In conjunction with the construction of the Wilmington Rail Viaduct and the Wilmington Shop complex in the early 20th century, developers started building modest workers’ housing in the vicinity of Vandever Avenue at the southern end of the property.

St. James A. U. M. P. Church church site was purchased on Jan. 13, 1872 and the corner-stone laid on October 12, 1884.

The cornerstone of Kingswood Methodist Episcopal Church was laid in 1891.
The Kingswood Community Center started in 1946, when a group of residents came together to create a space for youth afterschool activities, which they found at the Kingswood United Methodist Church. By 1956, the church space became too small for the program, and with financial help of foundations and local philanthropists the current 12-acre (4.9 ha) site on Bowers Street was purchased.

The E.D. Robinson Urban Farm, also known as the Brandywine Urban Farm, is at Brandywine Street and East 12th Street. Once a debris-covered lot, it was transformed at the initiation of a local bartender, Adrienne Spencer. Named after Eric Robinson, a former City Councilman and neighborhood activist, the farm, has 600 square feet of community gardening and 1,400 square feet of commercial garden space. It has been recognized by the Delaware Center for Horticulture as a model of success in urban agriculture.

In 2018, Riverside was designated the 19th location to participate in Purpose Built Communities, a public-private initiate to re-invigorate neighborhoods. In 2020, the stakeholders announced a townhouse development which includes affordable housing.

DART First State operates buses through the district.
