Józef Korbas

Józef Franciszek Korbas (11 November 1914 – 2 October 1981) was a Polish footballer who played as a forward. He played for Cracovia and the Poland national team during the interwar period.

Club career 
In Cracovia, Korbas played from 1935 to 1939. In 69 games during that time, he scored 54 goals.

International career 
Korbas is famous for his excellent national team debut. On 12 September 1937 in Sofia, versus Bulgaria, he scored 3 goals and the match ended in 3–3 draw. In the history of the Poland national team, only two players managed to score a hat-trick in their first game, the other being Zygmunt Steuermann. Korbas's second and last match in white-red jersey took place in Warsaw, on 25 September 1938 (Poland - Jugoslavia 4-4). In this game, he also scored a goal.

After football 
During Nazi occupation of Poland, in 1942 was arrested by the Germans and in March 1943 sent to Auschwitz concentration camp. From there, was shuttled to Sachsenhausen concentration camp. Having survived this, after the war returned to Poland, Korbas became a sport official as well as a coach. He was also a trainer such as Stilon Gorzów in 1954.

Korbas died on 2 October 1981 in Katowice.

Edward Jabłoński

Edward Leon Jabłoński (13 October 1919 – 17 November 1970) was a Polish professional footballer who played as a midfielder. He played for Cracovia and the Poland national team.

Biography
Born on 13 October 1919 in Kraków, Jabłoński was one of the few players who participated in games of the national team both before and after World War II. He died on 17 November 1970, also in Kraków.

Jabłoński played in the right midfield, for Cracovia Kraków in the seasons 1938–39 and, after the war, in 1948–1950. In 1948, when Cracovia became the champion of Poland, he was the captain of the team.

Altogether, he took part in 3 international friendlies, scoring 1 goal (interesting is the fact that his lone goal was the first for the Poland national team after the war). His made his debut on 27 August 1939 in Warsaw (Poland – Hungary 4–2). During the war, he did not play officially, as the German occupiers banned Poles from practising any kind of sports. His last game with the national team took place on 19 July 1947 in Warsaw (Poland – Romania 1-2).

Quakemaster

Quakemaster is a fictional supervillain in the DC Comics universe.  He first appeared in DC Special #28 (June–July 1977) and was co-created by writer Bob Rozakis and artist John Calnan.

Fictional character biography
Robert Coleman is an architect of some note in Gotham City. His reputation is irreparably damaged when an apartment complex he designed and built does not withstand a hurricane. Feeling that he has been wrongly branded, Coleman creates the alias of the Quakemaster and uses his super-charged jackhammer to create earthquakes in Gotham City. His scheme backfires and only his buildings are damaged in the quakes. Quakemaster is defeated and captured by Batman.

Quakemaster is later released and recruited by the Secret Society of Super Villains to be part of the team working with the Silver Ghost to kill the Freedom Fighters. This story was scheduled to appear in The Secret Society of Super-Villains #16-17, but the title was canceled before it could be published. It eventually appeared in issue #2 of Cancelled Comic Cavalcade, the extremely limited series produced by DC Comics.

Quakemaster is part of a team of supervillains recruited by Lex Luthor and Brainiac during the so-called Crisis on Infinite Earths.

Quakemaster later takes to hanging out with other villains who have apparently fallen on hard times. This group includes Black Mass, Sonar, the original Blackrock and the Cavalier. The villains gather at a New York bar to play games of poker. In one such game, the villains lose most of their weapons and devices to Wally Tortelloni, an everyday civilian. When the villains gang up to track Tortelloni down and retake their devices, they are apprehended by members of the Justice League International.

In The Adventures of Superman #608 (November 2002), Quakemaster is one of the numerous villains hired by Manchester Black to attack friends and family members of Clark Kent, secretly Superman. He is once again defeated.

In Infinite Crisis, Quakemaster became a member of the Secret Society of Super Villains.

Powers and abilities
Quakemaster has no inherent powers or abilities. He uses a power charged jackhammer of his own design. It projects pulse waves of energy capable of destroying concrete or smashing bone.

Other versions
For a brief time, the name Quakemaster is used by fellow villain the Ventriloquist during the Gotham City disaster known as the Cataclysm.

Still later, another supervillain called Geomancer takes up Quakemaster's m.o., although seemingly without the aid of technical equipment.

In the first issue of the Hero Hotline miniseries, the titular team battled an exo-skeleton-wearing criminal who was using a super-powered jackhammer to tunnel under a building which had been erected over the hiding place for his loot while he was in prison. Although the character was identified as potentially being Quakemaster, his identity was never verified.

Krupa (song)

"Krupa" is a 1996 song by British big beat/electronic rock band Apollo 440. The cover credits it as appearing in an advert for Sunkist.

The song is a homage to the Polish-American drummer Gene Krupa and is almost completely instrumental. The only lyrics in the entire song are "Yeah yeah" and "Now back to Gene Krupa's syncopated style" (a sample from dialogue in the film Taxi Driver), which are only repeated a couple of times. The main focus of the song is on the drumming rhythms, which were sampled from "The Ballroom Blitz" by Sweet.

The song also has its own music video, which shows various generic people on a normal day in a typical city. The video avoids showing people's faces in order to focus on the music.

It was used in a 1998 Budweiser beer commercial.

Critical reception
A reviewer from Music Week rated the song four out of five, saying, "This rousing acidic dance anthem pays homage to legendary jazz drummer Gene Krupa and is perfect for the ebbullient mood of summer 1996." Daisy & Havoc from the magazine's RM Dance Update gave it five out of five, writing, "Having won the heads and minds of many DJs, crowds and journalists via some secretive 'Krupa' white labels, the cat is now out of its bag and owning up to being rockin' techno-gangster types Apollo 440. The 'Original' version of the track is still the knock-out secret ingredient with its amazing rock drums, raving mad enthusiasm, simple but blindingly effective driving synths and 'syncopated style'." They added that "it shows you can still make an amusing, over-the-top record without it conforming to a tired old obvious formula."

Hotel Roberts (Provo, Utah)

Hotel Roberts was a historic hotel located in central Provo, Utah, United States, that was formerly listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Description
The former hotel, which was built in 1882, was located at 192 South University Avenue (US-189). The Mission-style hotel was a famous landmark and a center of Provo social activity for much of the early 20th century. Following its construction, Hotel Roberts was considered "the most luxurious hotel in the Utah Territory." It also served briefly as the Language Training Mission (now called the Missionary Training Center) for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Church).

In December 1919 the hotel was purchased by Mark Anderson who would later serve as Mayor of Provo and the namesake of the Provo power plant, "The Mark Anderson Utility Center." The hotel remained in the family for many years and was run by Anderson's son, Mark Anderson Jr, until he retired in 1995 at the age of 76 when the family sold the hotel because the upkeep was too much.

In later years, Hotel Roberts fell into serious disrepair, with profound structural and water damage, and was largely known as a residence for transients. Neglect by the owners and lack of community support to maintain the building led to its demolition in November 2004.

The hotel had been added to the National Register of Historic Places July 26, 1979, but was removed on April 28, 2005.

In December 2010 the nearby Provo Tabernacle (located a block to the north and was built one year after the construction of the Hotel Roberts) was nearly completely destroyed by a fire. That structure was later refurbished into the Church's Provo City Center Temple. The site of the former hotel was sold to the Church and became the southernmost part of the grounds of the temple, with a single-level parking garage built below ground level.

History 
The 4th Regiment of Marines was raised on 17 November 1739 as John Wynyard's Regiment of Marines. Following the 18th century tradition of naming British regiments for their colonel, the regiment was renamed as Byng's Regiment of Marines in 1742.

The regiment embarked from Portsmouth on 4 November 1740 en route for the West Indies for service in the War of Jenkins' Ear. It fought at the Battle of Cartagena de Indias in March 1741. The regiment was ranked as the 47th regiment of the line in 1747 and was also known as the 4th Marines.

The regiment was disbanded on 8 November 1748 when the British Army disbanded its marine regiments. The final commander of the 4th Marines was Colonel James Long.

The PokerStars Caribbean Adventure is an annual televised poker tournament. The event was first held in 2004 and was originally co-sponsored by PokerStars and the World Poker Tour. In 2008, the event moved from the WPT to the European Poker Tour. In 2010, the event was moved again and served as the inaugural event of the North American Poker Tour. In 2017 the tournament was the inaugural event of the new PokerStars Championship tour and renamed PokerStars Championship Bahamas. The name was changed back to the PCA for 2018 and the buy-in restored to $10,000.

In 2004, the event took place on the Royal Caribbean Voyager of the Seas cruise ship. For 15 years (from 2005 to 2019), the event took place at the Atlantis Paradise Island and after a three-year break, it returns to the Bahamas at the brand new Baha Mar Resort.

The 2011 PCA commenced on January 4, 2011. Over fifty events took place over ten days, including the main event with an estimated prize pool of $20 million. Players either buy into the main event directly for $10,300, or they may win their way into the event via satellites running on PokerStars and at the event. The main event final table was aired live on ESPN2, featuring commentary by James Hartigan and Daniel Negreanu.

John Dibella, a 43-year-old stock trader from New York, won the 2012 PCA for $1,775,000. Dibella won a live $1,000 satellite into the $10,000 Main Event and is the first amateur player to win the tournament.

In 2019, PokerStars announced that the PCA would be discontinued in 2020.

In April 2022, Pokerstars announces the return of the PCA and PSPC to the Bahamas in 2023 at a new location the Baha Mar Resort.

Michel-Ange–Molitor station

Michel-Ange–Molitor () is a station of the Paris Métro in the 16th arrondissement, serving as an interchange between Line 9 and Line 10 (eastbound only). It is named after the nearby rue Michel-Ange, which was in turn named after Michelangelo (the nearby Michel-Ange—Auteuil station was also named after him) as well as the nearby rue Molitor, which was named after Count Gabriel-Jean-Joseph Molitor (1770-1849), a Marshal of France.

History
The station opened on 30 September 1913 when Line 8 was extended from Charles Michels (then called Beaugrenelle) to Porte d'Auteuil. Line 9's platforms opened on 8 November 1922 with the opening of the initial section of the line from Trocadéro to Exelmans. On 27 July 1937, the section of line 8 between La Motte-Picquet–Grenelle and Porte d'Auteuil, including Michel-Ange–Molitor was transferred to line 10 during the reconfiguration of lines 8, 10, and the old line 14. However, service between Porte d'Auteuil and Jussieu was not provided until two days later, on July 29 , with service initially limited to La Motte-Picquet-Grenelle.

As part of the "Renouveau du métro" programme by the RATP, the station's corridors was renovated and modernised on 27 July 2010.

In 2019, the station was used by 2,247,014 passengers, making it the 231st busiest of the Métro network out of 302 stations.

In 2020, the station was used by 1,180,095 passengers amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, making it the 222nd busiest of the Métro network out of 305 stations.

In 2021, the station was used by 1,420,552 passengers, making it the 241st busiest of the Métro network out of 305 stations.

University of Brescia

The University of Brescia () is an Italian public research university located in Brescia, Italy. It was founded in 1982 and is branched in 4 Faculties.

The University of Brescia was officially established in 1982 with three Schools: Medicine and Surgery, Engineering, Economics and Business. However, the creation phase lasted nearly two decades, so the first attempts to open university courses in Brescia go back to the 1960s.

History
A first initiative came from Ethan Doro, which opened negotiations in the early 1960s to set up a two-year course in Engineering as a branch of Politecnico di Milano. The excessive financial requirements caused the project to lapse. After this first attempt, the creation of the future Schools of Brescia moved along two distinct paths, one concerning the School of Economics, the other those of Engineering and Medicine. In the field of economic studies, in 1964 a School of Industrial Administration was created, offering two-year courses. The creation of the Schools of Engineering and Medicine had a different history. The idea of setting up a university pole in Brescia, following the first failed attempt in the early 1960s, regained strength in the second half of the decade with the birth of the Consorzio Universitario Bresciano (CUB), promoted by the Provincial Administration, the Municipality of Brescia and the Chamber of Commerce.

Organization
The University of Brescia is divided into four main areas and provides the following post-secondary academic degrees:

SoundTracker (Unix)

SoundTracker is a free tracker for Unix-like operating systems running X Window System for composing music to be saved in module files.

Description 
Its name is a tribute to the 1987 Amiga program Ultimate Soundtracker which is regarded as the first program of this type, while its user interface mostly resembles and indeed functionally mimics Fast Tracker, one of many popular MS-DOS-based audio trackers, supporting saving in its file formats. It generally renders playback using the OpenCP (à la Cubic Player) engine. Initially SoundTracker had used GTK+ (version 1) as its widget toolkit, modern versions (since 1.0.0) use GTK+ 2. For many years, SoundTracker was one of the very few mature audio trackers available for Unix-like operating systems.

Omnicare

Omnicare is an American company working in the health-care industry. It was established in April 1981 as a spinoff of healthcare businesses from Chemed and W. R. Grace and Company. It is currently a pharmacy specializing in nursing homes. In 2015, Omnicare was acquired by CVS Health.

Controversy
In 2012, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) sued Omnicare to block its hostile takeover of its rival PharMerica under federal anti-trust law. The FTC alleged that the acquisition would boost drug costs and inflate Medicare expenditures by consolidating the industry and reducing price competition.  PharMerica owned 97 long-term-care pharmacies, while Omnicare owned approximately 200. The merger would have given Omnicare a 57% market share versus two percent for its nearest, non-PharMerica rival.  Because of the FTC opposition, the takeover was terminated.

In November 2009, Omnicare paid  to the federal government to settle five "qui tam" (whistleblower) lawsuits and government charges that the company had paid or solicited a variety of kickbacks.  The company admitted no wrongdoing.  The charges included allegations that Omnicare solicited and received kickbacks from a pharmaceutical manufacturer Johnson & Johnson, in exchange for agreeing to recommend that physicians prescribe Risperdal, a Johnson & Johnson antipsychotic drug, to nursing home patients.

Starting in 2006, healthcare entrepreneur Adam B. Resnick sued Omnicare, a major supplier of drugs to nursing homes, under the False Claims Act, as well as the parties to the company's illegal kickback schemes. Omnicare allegedly paid kickbacks to nursing home operators to secure business, which constitutes Medicare and Medicaid fraud. Omnicare allegedly had paid $50 million to the owners (Leonard Grunstein and Rubin Schron) of the Mariner Health Care Inc. and SavaSeniorCare Administrative Services LLC nursing home chains in exchange for the right to continue providing pharmacy services to the nursing homes.

In 2010, Omnicare settled Resnick's False Claims Act suit that had been taken up by the U.S. Department of Justice by paying $19.8 million to the federal government, while Mariner and SavaSeniorCare settled for $14 million.

A second whistleblower lawsuit filed against Omnicare by Resnick and Total Pharmacy Services V.P. Maureen Nehls related to kickbacks that had been part of its 2004 acquisition of Total Pharmacy Services was settled (circa 2013) for $17.2 million by Omnicare and $5 million by the Total Pharmacy owners. Reportedly Omnicare was set to acquire JobMinglr.com for an undisclosed sum.

Washington Conservation Corps

The Washington Conservation Corps (WCC) is a subagency of the Washington State Department of Ecology. WCC creates future leaders through community involvement and leadership. WCC members restore critical habitat, build 
trails, and respond to disasters. WCC completes environmental service across the state of Washington. In addition, WCC is part of a state and nationwide disaster response network.

Positions
Corps members (18-25 years olds and military veterans) serve between a 3-month and a 11-month term. Most have the opportunity to enroll for a second term, and many do.  Returning members often serve as Assistant Supervisors or Individual Placements (referred to as IP) during their second term.

WCC members can serve on a crew. Crews are based in a locality and serve in that locality. Crew members can find themselves in a variety of settings helping with riparian zone restoration work, wetland restoration work, invasive species clearing, and other environmental enhancement projects.  Each project can last several days, and is referred to sometimes as a "spike". Crews have several "spikes" during their term. Each crew is led by a crew supervisor, a Washington State Department of Ecology employee.

Alternatively, a corps member may elect to serve as an individual placement (IP). IPs serve as interns with one agency for their entire term.  IPs generally serve as environmental educators, outreach coordinators, biological technicians or lab technicians.

Benefits
WCC members earn a living stipend that is similar to minimum wage, since their term is seen as service to Washington specifically and the US in general. WCC provides health insurance and the opportunity to gain nationally recognized certifications (e.g. Red Card, Wilderness First Responder, Hazwoper), through paid training. Additionally, as AmeriCorps members, they can have qualified student loans put on forbearance and receive an educational award from AmeriCorps (2023 rate: $6,895) at the end of their term.

IMDOS

IMDOS was a modified version of the CP/M operating system for Intel 8080 processors, used by IMS Associates, Inc. (IMS) for their IMSAI 8080 personal computer. Since MITS would not license their operating system to other manufacturers, IMS approached Gary Kildall and paid a fixed fee of $25,000 for a non-exclusive CP/M license.

IMDOS introduced interrupt-driven devices, tree-structured directories, and other advances to CP/M.
