Gesu Church (Milwaukee, Wisconsin)

Gesu Church is a Jesuit parish of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Milwaukee located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was designated a Milwaukee Landmark in 1975.

Although the church is not affiliated with Marquette University, through a 1991 partnership, it ministers to the downtown campus of Marquette and surrounding neighborhood.

Description 
Gesu, founded  in 1849 as St. Gall's Parish, initially served English-speaking Irish Catholics from the near south and west sides of Milwaukee in what was the neighborhood of Tory Hill. As the parish grew, it built Holy Name Church in 1875, and by 1887 Jesuit officials combined the two parishes into one church. The Gesu name was chosen in 1893 to honor the Church of the Gesu in Rome, where St. Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus, is buried.

The cornerstone was laid on May 23, 1893, with over 20,000 in attendance. A dedication ceremony followed on December 17, 1894, to mark the formal completion of the church.

Actor Pat O'Brien (1899–1983) served as an altar boy at Gesu while growing up near 13th and Clybourn streets. He attended Marquette Academy (a preparatory department that later became Marquette University High School) with Spencer Tracy (1900–1967), and later attended Marquette University.

Gesu Church holds daily Masses and attracts over 2,500 worshipers on weekends.

In late 1954, the church held the funeral for Miller Brewing Company president Fred Miller and his son, Fred, Jr., attended by thousands.

Architecture and fittings
Architect Henry C. Koch designed the French Gothic building, drawing inspiration from the Cathedral of Chartres in France. It features landmark spires of unequal height, a centered rose window, and stained glass windows. Harriet L. Cramer donated of the granite columns in the church's interior, said to be the only columns of this kind in the U.S.; they were placed there at a cost of .

Jason Fabini

Jason Tamer Fabini (born August 25, 1974) is a former American football offensive tackle in the National Football League (NFL) for the New York Jets, Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins. He was drafted by the Jets in the fourth round of the 1998 NFL Draft. He played college football at Cincinnati.

Early years
Fabini attended Bishop Dwenger High School in Fort Wayne, Indiana. He was a starter at offensive guard and defensive tackle.

College career
Fabini accepted a football scholarship from the University of Cincinnati, where he was a four-year starter at left tackle and an All-Conference USA selection. In his junior season, he contributed to the school's first bowl-game invitation in 47 years. He played in 44 career games and made 43 starts.

In 2009, he was inducted into the University of Cincinnati Athletics Hall of Fame.

Professional career

New York Jets
Fabini was selected by the New York Jets in the fourth round (111th overall) of the 1998 NFL Draft. He became a starter at right tackle as a rookie under head coach Bill Parcells.

In 1999, he started 9 games (8 at right tackle and one at left tackle) and was lost for the season after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament, in the ninth game against the New England Patriots. In 2000, he became the starter at left tackle and helped the offensive line tie a league low 20 sacks allowed on the season. He remained in that role and didn't miss a game for the next 4 seasons.

In 2005, he was moved to right tackle after struggling on the left side. He started 9 games before he was placed on the injured reserve list with a torn chest muscle. On February 22, he was released for salary cap reasons.

Dallas Cowboys
On March 18, 2006, he was signed as a free agent by the Dallas Cowboys, reuniting him with his former Jets head coach Bill Parcells. Although he had the inside track for the starting right tackle job, he was passed on the depth chart by Marc Colombo and relegated to special teams duties. He was released on March 10, 2007.

Washington Redskins
On March 26, 2007, Fabini signed a one-year deal with the Washington Redskins. He replaced an injured Randy Thomas at right guard in the second week and went on to start in 13 games.

He signed a second contract with the Redskins exactly one year later on March 26, 2008. He appeared in 7 games with 2 starts. He was not re-signed after the season.

Personal life
Fabini was in the movie Made, which starred Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau. He played the role of Doorman #3. In 2017, he was hired as an assistant football coach at Bishop Dwenger High School.

Barak 1

Barak (, lightning) is an Israeli surface-to-air missile (SAM) designed to be used as a ship-borne point-defense missile system against aircraft, anti-ship missiles, and UAVs.

Design
The Barak SAM system is designed to replace or complement gun-based CIWS platforms, such as the Phalanx CIWS, with a more flexible and longer-range SAM. The missiles are mounted in an eight cell container (which requires little maintenance) and are launched straight up. The Barak SAM system's launcher uses a compact vertical launching system, with an 8-cell module weighing . Fire control is provided by an equally compact C3I system that weighs , which can either operate independently or in conjunction with other on-board sensors. Its C3I radar system provides 360-degree coverage and the missiles can take down an incoming missile as close as  away from the ship. Each Barak system (missile container, radar, computers and installation) costs about $24 million. 

The system is designed to defend against aircraft and anti-ship missiles, including sea-skimming missiles.

Flight test
The missile was tested on 24 March 2017 by the Indian Navy from  during Operation Readiness Inspection in the Arabian Sea.

Operators

 
  - On 14 warships, including the s and the aircraft carrier . This system is already deployed on the Indian navy's third aircraft carrier .

Allegations

The alleged Indian Barak missile purchase controversy was mainly due to allegations of defense industry corruption, and also due to allegations that the deal was over-priced and processed on a single-tender basis. By 2013, the allegations were unproven and the investigations were inconclusive due to lack of evidence, and the case is likely to be closed.

The investigation of the allegations began in 2006, and were done by the Central Bureau of Investigation, which arrested several people including the former Samata Party treasurer R.K. Jain. On 23 December 2013, India's Defense Acquisition Council (DAC) headed by Defense Minister AK Antony cleared a second order of 262 Barak-I missiles for .

Sergey Volkov (figure skater)

Sergey Nikolayevich Volkov (; 19 April 1949  – 31 August 1990) was a Soviet figure skater. He won the 1975 World title and placed second in 1974.

Personal life 
Volkov was born on 19 April 1949 in Moscow. He was the brother of Elena Buriak, an international skating referee.

He died from stomach cancer on 31 August 1990 in Kharkiv and was buried in Kuntsevo Cemetery in Moscow.

Volkov dreamed of becoming a pilot and tried twice to enter the flight academy in Rostov-on-Don.

Fira Basuki

Fira Basuki (born June 7, 1972) is an Indonesian novelist. Arguably her most famous work is her trilogy debut consisting of Jendela-Jendela (The Windows), Pintu (The Door) and Atap (The Roof). The trilogy concerning the journeys of Javanese brother and sister Bowo and June; from graduating high school, studying abroad in the US, their meta-physical experiences (especially Bowo's "second sight" and aura-reading capabilities), relationships with people of different nationalities (especially June's Tibetan husband), and their return home to Indonesia.

Her novel, Brownies, was adapted to a movie which was nominated for Best Picture at the 2005 Indonesian Film Festival, eventually losing out to Gie (though Brownies did earn a Best Director Citra award for Hanung Bramantyo). She recently launched to widespread media acclaim a popular biography on media person Wimar Witoelar, her first work in non-fiction.

Her novel, Astral Astria was published in 2007. At that time, she was working as Chief Editor at the Indonesian edition of Cosmopolitan Magazine.

Because of the boldness of the topics she writes about, Basuki is considered to a member of the informal movement labeled sastra wangi.

Sittin' Sidewayz

"Sittin' Sidewayz" is a song by American rapper Paul Wall, released as the first single from his album The Peoples Champ. It features rapper Big Pokey and was produced by Salih Williams. The single's music video had cameo appearances by Jim Jones, DJ Paul, Juicy J and Bun B. The song samples a line by Big Pokey from his verse on DJ Screw's "June 27th".

The song is featured prominently in the Xbox 360 video game Def Jam: Icon (a video game in which Paul Wall appears as himself providing his own voice and likeness and is a playable character in) and also made appearances in the games SSX on Tour and Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition Remix. It is also featured in the 2006 theatrical film Grandma's Boy.

The song was originally supposed to use the instrumental to Mike Jones' 2005 single "Back Then", and appears on 2005's Paul Wall Mixtape using this instrumental. It was later changed to an original instrumental produced by Michael Watts for the single and album version.

Other versions 
Months later, Ghostface Killah and R. Kelly made a remix to "Sittin' Sidewayz" with permission. Later on, a Latin remix was also made by Stunta, Keri Hilson and Lucky Luciano under permission but did not include Big Pokey in it. In 2010, Crooked I also released a freestyle to the song.

Arcady Boytler

Arcady Sergeevich Boytler Rososky (August 31, 1895 – November 24, 1965) was a Russian-born Mexican film producer, director and screenwriter, most renowned for his films during the golden age of Mexican cinema.

Boytler was born in Moscow, Russia. During the 1920s, he started filming silent comedies. A collaborator of Sergei Eisenstein, he was called "the Russian Rooster" when he came to Mexico to film La mujer del puerto (1933). In 1937 he filmed ¡Así es mi tierra!, which followed the model of Fernando de Fuentes's classic Allá en el Rancho Grande. However, the film subverted the Mexican Revolutionary genre by making the general into the villain.

Boytler died of heart disease in the Mexican Federal District on November 24, 1965, at the age of 70.

Starting with the September/October 2002 issue, the magazine evolved into a lifestyle magazine for creators covering the fields of film, music, art and design. Since the redesign, all issues of the magazine were bundled with a DVD that was sent to subscribers. The DVDs featured short films, music videos and music. RES was the first U.S. publication to include a DVD with every issue of the print publication.

The October 2006 issue of RES was the last issue to be printed. A new hybrid magazine format was supposed to be launched by RES in 2007, and was intended to be published in several media. However, it was not materialized.

RES was published by RES Media Group, which also produced the international touring film festival, RESFest.

Deas Island

Deas Island is a peninsula in the south arm of the Fraser River between Delta, British Columbia and Richmond, British Columbia, Canada. It is home to a regional park approximately  in size; and has three historic buildings: Burrvilla, a stately Victorian home; Inverholme, a one-room schoolhouse; and the Delta Agricultural Hall. Between 1895 and the 1940s, the peninsula had a small Greek settlement with a population of about 80 at its peak.

It is s habitat for many kinds of birds, and a popular bird-watching destination.

The peninsula is notable as the site of the southern end of the George Massey Tunnel (originally the Deas Island Tunnel), which is part of Highway 99 and connects Delta to Richmond. The tunnel goes from Deas Island to Lulu Island (Richmond) to the north. A small bridge completes the connection between Deas Island and the main part of Delta.

A portion of Deas Island is occupied by Deas Island Regional Park.

Origin of the name
The peninsula was named for John Sullivan Deas, an African-Canadian tinsmith who established a cannery on the peninsula in 1873. His was the leading cannery on the Fraser River until 1878, at which point growing competition encouraged Deas to sell.

California State Route 175

State Route 175 (SR 175) is a state highway in the U.S. state of California that runs through the Mayacamas Mountains, connecting U.S. Route 101 in Hopland in Mendocino County with State Route 29 in Middletown in Lake County.

Route description
SR 175 connects U.S. Route 101 at Hopland to State Route 29 near Lakeport through the Mayacamas Mountains. From there it joins SR 29 until Kelseyville, where it loops out until meeting SR 29 again at its end at Middletown. The section between Hopland and Lakeport is also known locally as the "Hopland Grade", or "Hopland Pass."

Except for the portion on SR 29, SR 175 is not part of the National Highway System, a network of highways that are considered essential to the country's economy, defense, and mobility by the Federal Highway Administration.

History
Originally constructed in the early 1920s, it is one of the steepest and most difficult to drive of any California state highway. Until recently it was called the "crookedest road in California". Vehicles more than  in length are banned from the Hopland Grade, due to its many tight hairpin turns and curves.

Syracuse University School of Architecture

The Syracuse University School of Architecture, commonly known as Syracuse Architecture, is one of the 13 schools and colleges of Syracuse University. The school offers bachelor's and master's degrees in architecture that are accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board (NAAB). Founded in 1873, it is the fourth oldest architecture program in the United States.

History
The architecture school was one of the early schools on Syracuse campus, starting in 1873, just three years after Syracuse University was founded. The school was created as one of two new departments within the College of Fine Arts by George Fisk Comfort who served as the Dean of the new college. He later founded Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Prominent local architects, including Horatio Nelson White, Archimedes Russell, and Ward Wellington Ward were recruited as professors. The original College of Fine Arts was the first institution in the United States to offer both B.A. and M.A. degrees in architecture, painting, sculpture, music, and other. The college was dissolved in 1945, with many new schools forming in its place.

The first female student enrolled at Syracuse architecture in 1877, in process becoming the first female in the United States to study architecture as a profession. Frances Whipple Bigelow became the first female graduate in 1898.

Facilities

The program was first housed in the Hall of Languages, and was moved to the newly built Crouse College in 1883, then to Steele Hall in 1908. It finally found its permanent home in newly designed, skylit Slocum Hall in 1919. The school has long been housed in Slocum Hall on the university's main campus, but in January, 2006 the School of Architecture moved to a temporary home in a converted warehouse in downtown Syracuse so that Slocum Hall could undergo massive renovations. As of fall of 2008, the school has returned to its home in Slocum Hall.

Academics
The undergraduate program enrolls nearly 700 students, representing 46 countries, and leads to a Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.) degree. The graduate program enrolled 120 students in 2021, and offers Master of Architecture (M.Arch.) and post-professional Master of Science (M.S.) in Architecture programs.

Rankings
The Bachelor of Architecture program was ranked 5th nationally in both the most Hired from and most admired categories by the journal Design Intelligence in its 2019-20 rankings. The graduate program was ranked 16th in the nation by DesignIntelligence on their 2019 list of top architecture schools.

Carter Country

Carter Country is an American sitcom that aired on ABC from September 15, 1977 to August 23, 1979.  It starred Victor French and Kene Holliday.  A young Melanie Griffith appeared in two episodes.

Synopsis
Carter Country is set in the fictional small town of Clinton Corners in Georgia (presumably near the part of the state from which U.S. President Jimmy Carter hailed, thus the title) and features French as police chief Roy Mobey and Holliday as city-bred, college-educated, Sergeant Curtis Baker.

Richard Paul as Mayor Teddy Burnside, Harvey Vernon as racist officer Jasper DeWitt, and Barbara Cason as town employee Cloris Phebus rounded out the cast. DeWitt was shown to be a member of the local branch of the Ku Klux Klan and he often made disparaging comments against minorities, but was still a loyal and honest law enforcement officer. In several episodes, it is hinted that his racist attitude is an act and that he joined the KKK in order to keep an eye on their activities. Separate from his racism, DeWitt resents Baker for taking the sergeant's position, to which DeWitt felt entitled due to his tenure. 

Additional comic support was provided by Texas-born actor Guich Koock who played the part of goofy deputy Harley. Vernee Watson rounded out the cast as the mayor's educated secretary and Baker's love interest. The plot centered around the stereotypical racism of the Deep South, and was often characterized as being an irreverent, comedic version of the movie In the Heat of the Night, especially with the aspect of an educated, African American man coming to a small, southern town to work as a police officer.

The character of Mayor Burnside coined a minor catchphrase with his manic "Handle it, Roy, handle it!", used when delegating various details to Chief Mobey such as fixing a parking ticket. If Mobey protested or asked any further questions, Burnside would stifle further discussion with a dismissive hand gesture and a further "Handle it, handle it, handle it!" Burnside often introduced himself to members of the public as "Teddy Burnside, your mayor by a landslide."

Ratings
The first season ranked 32nd out of 104 shows, and averaged a 19.6 rating. The second season ranked 70th out of 114 shows, with an average 15.6/27 rating/share.

Popular culture
Mayor Burnside's catchphrase "Handle it, Roy, handle it!" was repeated by rapper Greg Nice for the 1992 Gang Starr/Nice & Smooth hip hop song DWYCK.

Flux Television was an American pioneering digital culture show that ran on a Public, educational, and government access (PEG) cable TV channel in New York City, San Francisco and San Diego in the mid-1990s. The show predated the electronic music video show Amp that ran on MTV.

Wired magazine proclaimed the show "a half-hour gem, in which electronic music videos collide with excellently reported segments on digital culture." The show received several awards including a Billboard Music Award for Video.

The show had numerous creative collaborators including Jonathan Wells (creative director), designer Bill McMullen (who created the logo), twenty2product (who designed the show's motion graphics sequences), graphic designer David Weissberg, producers Aden Ikram, Randall Hoy and Lisa Braz.

David Weissberg and Jonathan Hale Wells later worked on the LowRes Film and Video Festival together.
