The fourth season of Designing Women premiered on CBS on September 18, 1989, and concluded on May 21, 1990. The season consisted of 28 episodes. Created by Linda Bloodworth-Thomason, the series was produced by Bloodworth/Thomason Mozark Productions in association with Columbia Pictures Television.

Broadcast history
The season originally aired Mondays at 9:30-10:00 pm (EST) on CBS. From 1989 through 1992, Designing Women and Murphy Brown aired back-to-back, creating a very successful hour-long block for CBS, as both shows were thought to appeal to similar demographics. The show was a top 30 hit for three consecutive seasons (1989–92), making it the most successful at the time. The high ratings also helped CBS's ratings overall, which had struggled around the late 1980s.

In telecommunication, a filled cable is a cable that has a non-hygroscopic material, usually a gel called icky-pick, inside the jacket or sheath. The nonhygroscopic material fills the spaces between the interior parts of the cable, preventing moisture from entering minor leaks in the sheath and migrating inside the cable. 

A metallic cable filled with a dielectric material, such as a coaxial cable or a metal waveguide, is not considered to be a "filled cable".

Ampelokipoi B.C. or Ampelokipi B.C. () is a Greek basketball club that is based in the Athenian neighborhood Ampelokipoi. It plays in the third local division (Γ ΕΣΚΑ), but in the past it has played in the top-tier Greek Basket League for two seasons. The club's colours are green and white, and its emblem is three circles, like Olympic circles.

History
Ampelokipoi was founded in 1929, originally as Hephaestus Athens. In the first post-war years, the club was renamed to Athletic Union of Ampelokipoi, and in the year 1954, the club merged with Niki Ampelokipoi, and was then renamed to Ampelokipoi Athletic Club. The club had departments in all popular sports in Greece: football, basketball, and volleyball. But the club was in the shadow of the nearby Panathinaikos club. 

Only during the 1990s, did the basketball team have some success, when it had Georgios Kalafatakis as head coach, and was promoted up through five division levels in five seasons, ultimately reaching the top-tier Greek Basket League. Ampelokipoi played in the top-tier Greek Basket League for two seasons (1994–95 and 1995–96), having notable players such as Tzanis Stavrakopoulos, Giorgos Floros, Lawrence Funderburke, and Ashraf Amaya in the team. After losing the most notable players of the team, the club then played in the Greek 2nd Division for the two next seasons. 

In those following years, the club's most notable player was Theo Papaloukas. Over the following years, Ampelokipoi started on a decline period, and the team ended up down in the local regional divisions.

"Anecdote of Canna" is a poem from Wallace Stevens's first book of poetry,  Harmonium (1923).

Interpretation

Canna is a genus of 10 species of flowering plants. In the poem's legerdemain the cryptic middle stanza conceals the sleight of hand. Poor X wakes in his sleep ("Now day-break comes") and consequently his eye clings to the canna forever. The cleverness of the poem links it to "The Worms at Heaven's Gate". The poetic conceit here may be contrasted with Descartes' philosophical proposition that a person must always be thinking when asleep, on pain of ceasing to exist. Day-dreaming, sleep-walking, catatonic X is fixated upon the showy canna that fill the terrace of his capitol, his consciousness.

Buttel forgoes this interpretation in favor of the idea that the poem celebrates the poetic counterpart of a painter's "primitive eye". Such poets would achieve what Monet and the Impressionists desired, recovering from blindness and seeing the world "with utmost clarity, without preconceptions". "They would be like X in Stevens' 'Anecdote of Canna'", Buttel writes, "who at daybreak 'Observes the Canna with a clinging eye,' as though for the first time".

Neither interpretation, however, identifies who X is, the starting point of a reading of the poem which does more than merely scratch the surface. In the poem, "X" is identified merely as a 'mighty man' with a 'mighty thought'.

William Bradshaw Egan (September 28, 1808 – October 27, 1860), sometimes Eagan, was an Irish American physician, politician, and orator. Born in Killarney, Egan trained in the United Kingdom before immigrating to North America to teach school. He later studied in New York City, New York, then ventured west to the burgeoning city of Chicago, Illinois. As one of the first trained physicians in the city, Egan rose to prominence, serving on the first board of health and serving in the Illinois House of Representatives.

Biography
William Bradshaw Egan was born in Killarney, Ireland on September 28, 1808. He was a second cousin of Irish political leader Daniel O'Connell. When he was fifteen, he studied medicine in Lancashire, England before continuing in London and Dublin. He received a degree from Trinity College Dublin, then emigrated to North America. He first settled in Quebec, Canada, teaching a school. He later taught in Montreal, Quebec and New York City, New York, United States. There, he matriculated at the Rutgers Medical School. He then accepted a position at the University of Virginia. In 1830, the New Jersey State Medical Society granted him a license to practice medicine. He then opened a practice in Newark, New Jersey.

In 1833, he decided to move west to the new town of Chicago, Illinois. As one of the few trained medical professionals in the city, he quickly rose to prominence. He represented the South Division of the city on its health committee, making him one of the two members of what was the city's first board of health. Egan became a noted orator and gave the celebratory speech at the opening of the Illinois and Michigan Canal. In 1842, Egan was elected the president of an organization of Irish Americans that sought to liberate their homeland. Aside from medical pursuits, Egan made a fortune in real estate.

Egan was elected city recorder in 1844. In 1852, Eagan was elected to the Illinois House of Representatives, where he served a two-year term. He spoke with James Henry Lane, arguing that Kansas should be admitted as a free state. In 1856, he participated in the formation of the Republican Party by presiding over two of Anson Burlingame's speeches in favor of its establishment.

Egan married Emeline W. Mabbatt in 1832. He was Episcopalian and co-founded the St. James Episcopal Church. He died at his home in Chicago on October 27, 1860, and was buried in Graceland Cemetery. Pershing Road was originally known as Egan Street in his honor.

The Hokkaido University poplar avenue is a path lined with poplar trees, situated in the Hokkaido University campus in Sapporo, Japan. It extends from the back of the Psychology Department to the first of Hokkaido University's farms. The avenue is a well-known symbol of the university, and is introduced as one of the three most famous attractions in Sapporo on the Japan National Tourism Organization's website for visitors to Japan.

History 

The origins of the poplar avenue can be found in the few trees brought back from America in 1903 by Mori Hiroshi, son of the second principal of the Sapporo Agricultural College, Mori Genzo. These trees were planted to extend the existing row of Acacia trees by Minami Takajirō, a professor at the college. In 1911, Minami accompanied Nitobe Inazō on a voyage to America. During the trip he bought several poplar trees and brought them back to Hokkaido to use as windbreaks for the college's farm. The next year, the assistant Ueda Hanjirō and the college's students planted these trees next to the existing poplars, and the poplar avenue was born.

In 1954, several poplar trees were felled as a result of typhoon Marie. A 1959 typhoon caused greater damage still, felling more than 10 trees. As a result, people called for the removal of the remaining trees for safety reasons. However, after Kingo Machimura, the Governor of Hokkaido, received a letter from a 9-year-old girl who objected to the removal of the trees, and he ordered that more saplings be planted. The poplar avenue increased to a greater size; though afterward the avenue was placed off-limits due to the risk of falling trees.

On September 8, 2004, the trees in Hokkaido University were almost destroyed by Typhoon Songda. Of the roughly 50 poplar trees in the avenue, only 32 remained (including two that were replanted). One of the trees that was still in good condition was taken to a sawmill in Asahikawa and turned into a harpsichord. New saplings were planted in places where trees in the avenue were missing, and by scattering wood chip on the path, part of the avenue was made available for public viewing again.

Recognition 

The poplar avenue was selected as No. 88 in Sapporo, Furusato to Bunka Hyakusen, a pamphlet made by Sapporo City for the 120th anniversary of the founding of Sapporo, and as No. 15 in section No. 1, "Road of Literature and Learning", in Kita-ku Rekishi to Bunka no Hachiju Hachi Sen, a selection of 88 historical places in Sapporo's north ward published by the north ward office.
