Janzen v Platy Enterprises Ltd

Janzen v Platy Enterprises Ltd [1989] 1 S.C.R. 1252 is a leading Supreme Court of Canada decision on discrimination. The Court found that sexual harassment was as a form of discrimination based on sex and so was prohibited by the Manitoba Human Rights Act.

Background
During the fall of 1982, Dianna Janzen and Tracy Govereau were both employed as waitresses at Pharos restaurant in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Tommy Grammas, a cook at the restaurant, began making sexual advances to Janzen. She repeatedly made it clear that the advances were not welcome, nonetheless they continued. When Janzen approached Eleftherois Anastasiadis, the manager of the restaurant, he said, "if it's about Tommy, I can't do anything about it." Eventually, the advances were replaced with uncooperative and threatening behaviour. When Anastasiadis was approached about it he refused to act on it and instead fired the women.

The women sued Platy Enterprises Ltd., the owner of Phraos restaurant, as well as Tommy, under section 6(1) of the Manitoba Human Rights Act, for violating their right to equal opportunity by firing them because of their sex.

The Manitoba Human Rights Tribunal held that the women had been subject to sexual harassment on the basis of sex and so the restaurant owners were in violation of section 6(1) of the Act. The Court of Queen's Bench upheld the decision.

The Manitoba Court of Appeal overturned the Court of Queen's Bench. The court found that sexual harassment was not considered discrimination on the basis of sex and that the employer could not be held vicariously liable of the conduct of the employee.

Ruling of the Court
Chief Justice Dickson, writing for a unanimous Court, held that the restaurant's conduct did constitute discrimination on the basis of sex. Dickson rejected the Court of Appeal's ruling that the harassment was not based on sex because not all female employees were targeted. He stated that discrimination on the basis of sex is where there is a "practice or attitude which had the effect of limiting the conditions of employment of, or the employment opportunities available to, employees on the basis of a characteristic related to gender."

List of defunct National Basketball Association teams

The National Basketball Association (NBA) is a professional men's basketball league, consisting of thirty teams in North America (twenty-nine in the United States and one in Canada). The NBA was founded in New York City on June 6, 1946, as the Basketball Association of America (BAA). It adopted the name National Basketball Association at the start of the 1949–50 season when it absorbed the National Basketball League (NBL). The NBA is an active member of USA Basketball, which is recognized by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) as the National Governing Body (NGB) for basketball in the country. The league is considered to be one of the four major professional sports leagues of North America.

There have been 15 defunct NBA franchises, of which nine played in only one NBA season. The Anderson Packers, the original Denver Nuggets, the Indianapolis Jets, the Sheboygan Red Skins, and the Waterloo Hawks had played in the NBL before joining the NBA, while the original Baltimore Bullets had played in the American Basketball League and NBL before joining the NBA. The Packers, Red Skins, and Waterloo Hawks left the NBA for the National Professional Basketball League, and are the only defunct teams to have ceased to exist in a league other than the NBA. The original Bullets were the last defunct team to leave the NBA, having folded during the 1954–55 season, and are the only defunct team to have won an NBA championship. The Chicago Stags, the Indianapolis Olympians, the Cleveland Rebels, the Packers, and the Red Skins qualified for the playoffs in every year they were active in the league.

Among cities that have hosted defunct NBA franchises, Chicago, Cleveland, Denver, Detroit, Indianapolis, Toronto, and Washington, D.C. all currently have an NBA team, while Providence, Anderson and Sheboygan are all close to an hour away from a market with an NBA franchise and Pittsburgh is two hours away from an NBA franchise. St. Louis and Buffalo would receive replacement franchises that would later relocate.

Wellington Square, Oxford

Wellington Square is a garden square in central Oxford, England, a continuation northwards of St John Street. In the centre of the square is a small park, Wellington Square Gardens, owned by the University of Oxford. A bicycle route passes into Little Clarendon Street through the pedestrian area at the front of the University Offices in the north-east of the square.

The street name is used to refer metonymically to the central administration of the University of Oxford, which in 1975 moved from the Clarendon Building to new buildings with an address in the square but built at that time, along with graduate student accommodation, along the adjacent Little Clarendon Street.

The university's Department for Continuing Education is in the square in Rewley House, which was designed in 1872 by the Oxford architect E.G. Bruton, who also laid out the square. This was the initial location of Kellogg College. Number 47 houses the administrative offices of the Faculty of Medieval and Modern Languages, as well as the university's Slavic and Modern Greek collections. Barnett House (named after the social reformer Canon Samuel Barnett and his wife Henrietta), home of the Department of Social Policy and Intervention is found along one side of the square.

The Oxford University Broadcasting Society used a studio of Radio Oxford in the square.

Sidi Bouzid Governorate

Sidi Bouzid Governorate (; ), sometimes spelt Sidi Bou Zid, is one of the 24 governorates (provinces) of Tunisia. It is in central Tunisia and landlocked. It covers an area of 7405 km2 and has a population of 429,912 (2014 census). The capital is its most populous settlement, Sidi Bouzid.

Geography
Toward the east and south of the governorate feature narrow escarpments of the dorsal Atlas Mountains and the western border is elevated.  The land otherwise slopes generally east throughout.  Lakes are scarce relative to other northern and central divisions.  A dammed lake, the Barrage Sidi Saad, commences on the northern border with Kairouan Governorate; within the administrative area its principal effect is to widen the main river, the Oued El Hatech which rises close to the Algerian border on the far west side of neighbouring Kasserine Governorate.  The river adjoins fields on the northern edge of the town of Sidi Bouzid.  A larger seasonal salt lake, the Sebkhet en Noual is largely within the area and on the south-east border.  It is described on some maps as a salt marsh. The smaller maximum-size Sebkhet Mecheguia forms a short part of the eastern border.  The natural landscape is semi-arid with irrigated areas used for cultivation and grazing.  The climate is therefore temperate at night, except in unusual overcast conditions and precipitation is confined largely to winter months/early spring, its levels are variable, see Climate.

Administrative divisions
The following cities and towns are located in the governorate:

7 Camelopardalis

7 Camelopardalis is a multiple star system in the northern circumpolar constellation of Camelopardalis. It is located approximately 370 light years from the Sun, as determined from its parallax. This system is visible to the naked eye as a faint, white-hued star with a combined apparent visual magnitude of 4.43. It is moving closer to the Earth with a heliocentric radial velocity of −10 km/s.

The primary member of the group, designated component A, is a single-lined spectroscopic binary system with a circular orbit and a period of 3.88 days. The visible component of this pair is a magnitude 4.49 A-type main-sequence star with a stellar classification of A1 V. It has 3.2 times the mass of the Sun and is spinning with a projected rotational velocity of 40 km/s. The star is radiating 222 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 9,226 K.

The magnitude 7.90 component B has an orbital solution with the Aa/Ab pair, which yields a period of 284 years and an eccentricity of 0.74. However, Drummond (2014) found the data to be discordant and instead determined that they are an optical pair with no physical association. The fourth member, component C, is a magnitude 11.30 star at an angular separation of  along a position angle of 242° from the primary, as of 2003.  It shares a common proper motion with the primary star.

Neuberg Abbey

Neuberg Abbey () is a former Cistercian monastery in Neuberg an der Mürz in Styria, Austria, and is one of the few extant set of monastic buildings in Austria to have retained its medieval character to any great extent.

History
The abbey was founded in 1327 as a filial monastery of Stift Heiligenkreuz by the Habsburg Duke Otto the Merry, who died here in 1339. It was suppressed in 1786 by Emperor Joseph II. In 1850, the partly ruined premises were converted for use as a hunting lodge for Emperor Franz Joseph I. The buildings were later owned by the Austrian Forestry Department, until 2006.

Abbey church
Construction on the monumental High Gothic hall church began about 1330 and was not completed until the reign of Frederick III, in 1496. The roof-timbers from the first half of the 15th century contain more than 1100 m³ of larch wood and constitute the largest and most important construction of this sort in the German-speaking world. The church interior is dominated by the Baroque high altar, dating from 1612. The life-size sandstone statue of the "Neuberger Madonna" and several side-altars date from the Gothic period.

After the dissolution of the monastery, it became the parish church of Neuberg.

Other architecture
The cloisters and the chapter house contain precious reliefs, which are among the most important specimens of 14th-century sculpture in Austria.

Siliana Governorate

Siliana Governorate (  ; ) is one of the twenty-four governorates (provinces) of Tunisia, is landlocked and is in the north of the country. It covers an area of 4,631 km2 and has a population of 223,087 (2014 census). The capital is Siliana.

Geography
The province is coextensive with the upper Oued Siliana (Siliana river) catchment which flows north. The land includes a largely fertile valley, tributary valleys, and rocky and forested uplands. It generally slopes north. The south of the governorate tapers in a curve to include the three main peaks at the head of the valley in the dorsal Atlas Mountains. Shortly after leaving the governorate, the Oued Siliana feeds into the valley of the Medjerda River, which flows east. Two main settlements are beside the river: Siliana and Gaafour (Qa Afur). Two forested ridges form national parks mainly within and outside the north-west and south-east borders respectively. The higher of these is the Djebel Serj to the south east. The Siliana Barrage, below the city, is an artificial reservoir and is the largest lake in the province, followed by the Lakhmess Barrage in the south-east, which is less than a third of its size. The climate is more Mediterranean than desert, as it is near the coast (see Tunisia§Climate) with temperatures in all but the northern borders moderated by its high elevation.

Administrative divisions
Ten municipalities are in Siliana Governorate:

Sousse Governorate

Sousse Governorate (  ; ) is one of the twenty-four governorates (provinces) of Tunisia. It is beside the eastern coast of Tunisia in the north-east of the country and covers an area of 2,621 km2 and has a population of 674,971 (2014 census). The capital is Sousse.

Geography
The area compasses most of the broad eastern coastal plain (which has a hot Mediterranean climate) featuring salt and fresh water lakes, fed by winter rains. A narrow strip of forest, the Foret Nationale de Tunisie, adjoins part of the beach swathe between Sousse and Hammamet to the far north, the beach forming most of the coastline.  These cities are on the Gulf of Hammamet which is a gently-curved bay.  The largest lake is the Sebkhet de Sidi El Hani which is shared with two other areas but is mostly in the Sousse Governorate.

Elevations are pronounced in the second national park in the area, which is mainly in Nabeul Governorate, is on all of the seaward sides of Hammam Bent Djadidi adjoining the northern border.

Transport
Linked by the widest road in the country and railways to Tunis, the area has roads and railways leading further into the country and towards Libya as well as an airport beside the main port city of Sousse, Monastir Habib Bourguiba International Airport which is beyond its short eastern border in much smaller Monastir Governorate. There is a Metro line that goes from Sousse Beb Djedid threw Monastir to Mahdia.

Administrative divisions
The governorate is divided into sixteen delegations (mutamadiyat), listed below with their populations at the 2004 and 2014 Censuses:

Melvyn Douglas was cast as the senior Clement Sturgess, a nephew of Sgt Edgar Sturgess. The special dramatises Clement's Christmas memories of his life around the year 1900. Mark Polley, the brother of Sarah Polley, was cast in the role of the young Clement.

Series
The series was set during 1899–1905, around the time of the Second Boer War.

Stage play
The pilot Christmas episode of A Gift to Last was adapted for the stage by Walter Learning and Alden Nowlan in 1978. The play has since become a perennial Canadian Christmas favourite and is regularly presented at regional theatres across the country. In 2012, Theatre Orangeville presented A Gift to Last with playwright Walter Learning in the role of Older Clement.

Rick Carroll

Rickey Floyd "Rick" Carroll (September 15, 1946 – July 10, 1989) was a program director (PD) for influential radio station KROQ-FM in Los Angeles, California, United States, where he introduced the "ROQ of the Eighties" format.  The format was synonymous with KROQ-FM and eventually developed into the modern rock format. Carroll spread this format to a number of radio markets across the United States either directly, as a radio consultant during the 1980s, or indirectly as stations adopted the KROQ-FM sound.

Biography
Born in Contra Costa County, California, Rick Carroll began his radio career as an intern at KPOP, Roseville / Sacramento, California, continuing at KERS while attending California State University-Sacramento. His professional career included stints as consultant or programming director for various California radio stations, including KKDJ and KEZY before moving to KROQ-FM in 1978.

During the late 1970s and early 1980s, mainstream acts dominated rock radio via the Album Oriented Rock (AOR) format, leaving little opportunity for most new artists. Carroll's approach was to play music from the emerging new wave, punk and related genres while retaining a Top 40 presentation style and Top 40 rotations. Noted for his ability to pick breakout hits, Carroll guided songs to prominence via the "Hot Clock," a pie chart prescribing the music to be played during each portion of a disc jockey's air shift. His system also included a "Jock's Choice" at the end of each hour of programming, during which a DJ could play any song of his or her own choosing. The Jock's Choice became a vehicle for new artists such as Depeche Mode and Juluka to break into KROQ-FM's regular rotation.

Starting in 1983, Carroll consulted other radio stations where he implemented the Rock of the Eighties format, including 91X (San Diego, CA), KYYX (Seattle, WA), KPOP Roseville / (Sacramento, CA), WAAF (Boston, MA), WIFI (Philadelphia, PA), KQAK (San Francisco, CA), WRQC (Cleveland, OH) and WYDD (Pittsburgh, PA) among many others.

Carroll died of AIDS-related pneumonia on July 10, 1989.

Rick was inducted into the Rock Radio Hall of Fame in the "Legends of Rock Radio-Programming" category on 2014.

Cannes station

Cannes station or Cannes-Voyageurs (French: Gare de Cannes) is the main railway station for the French Southern city of Cannes. It is situated on the Marseille–Ventimiglia railway.

History

The station opened on 10 April 1863 when the line from Marseille to Cagnes-sur-Mer opened to passengers. The station was a small elegant building with a rooftop spanning both tracks of the main line. In 1870 the line from Grasse is opened. The engine depot was moved to La Bocca in 1880 and a goods station opened in 1883. With the lengthening of trains, the old station proved to be too small for the growing town. Work on a new station started in 1962. The station building was subsequently replaced by the present structure in 1975. The line and the station platforms are, per 2023, now underground across most of the city center as it was covered by multi lanes city expressway.

Train services
The station is served by the following services:

High speed services (TGV) Paris - Avignon - Aix-en-Provence - Cannes - Antibes - Nice
High speed services (TGV) Bruxelles-Midi - Lille-Europe - Airport Charles de Gaulle - Lyon - Avignon - Aix-en-Provence - Marseille - Cannes - Nice
High speed services (TGV) Nancy - Strasbourg - Besançon - Dijon - Lyon - Avignon - Marseille - Cannes - Nice
High speed services (TGV) Lyon - Marseille - Nice
Regional services (TER Provence-Alpes-Côte-d'Azur) Marseille - Toulon - Les Arcs–Draguignan - Cannes - Nice
Local services (TER Provence-Alpes-Côte-d'Azur) Les Arcs–Draguignan - Cannes - Nice
Local services (TER Provence-Alpes-Côte-d'Azur) Grasse/Mandelieu - Cannes - Nice - Monaco - Ventimiglia

Please notice that this station, even served by TGV cars, is NOT high speed as the specific track, needed for high speed up to 320km/h goes only to Marseilles St Charles station. All trains from Marseille to the Italian border (Menton) run at slow speed.

Khudat

Khudat () is a town in the Caspian lowlands located in the northern section of Azerbaijan. It is a part of the Khachmaz District. It has a population of 14,442. 

Khudat's time of historical significance took place in the 18th century, as the provincial capital of the Quba khanate under the rule of the Qajars.  During this time, Hussein-khan, a native of the region, had spent time in Persia and adopted Shia Islam, creating favor in the eyes of the Shah, who granted him rule over both the Quba and Salyan khanates.  Hussein-khan returned to the region and established his capital in Khudat.  This period lasted until 1747, when Persian ruler Nadir Shah was assassinated.  Hussein-Ali, great-great-grandson of Hussein-khan, decided to try to turn the Quba khanate into an independent country and moved his capital to Quba due to the better natural defenses it offered to Khudat.  The city subsequently fell out of importance in Azerbaijan and has become a location for launching excursions into the popular beaches and resorts of the Nabran area.

Isidor Behrens

Henrik Enok Isidor Behrens (1868–1951) was the founder of the Swedish sports club Allmänna Idrottsklubben (AIK) and its first chairholder. AIK was founded on February 15, 1891, at the home of Behrens and his family in Stockholm, at the downtown address of Biblioteksgatan 8.

Early life 
Isidor Behrens was born on January 3, 1868, in Stockholm. Behrens was of German descent after his father, Carl August Heinrich Behrens, who was born in Burgberg, Germany and came to Sweden in 1862. His mother Anna Charlotta Behrens (born Wretberg) was from Häradshammar in Östergötland. Isidor Behrens had two brothers and two sisters. Paul Behrens (1870–1949), Emanuel Behrens (1873–1949), Edit Thekla Ingeborg Behrens (1878–1881), Edit Charlotta Behrens (1882–1964). In other words, Isidor was the eldest of the siblings.

Biography 
Behrens was the very first to compete for AIK, at the International Gymnastics and Sports Festival in Stockholm in May 1891 at Svea Livgarden's sports ground with 200 athletes as participants. Behrens and six other AIK members had signed up in various disciplines. Behrens was a short-distance runner. He competed in the 150 meters, but his time was not enough for the final place.

Behrens then tried on many other sports within AIK, from kicking to speed skating, but he never won any really big successes as an active. It was as a leader and board member that he made a name for himself both within and outside AIK. After a short stay in Lidköping in 1895, Behrens moved back to Stockholm, where he lived the rest of his life. From his father he had inherited his profession as a typographer and later became a registrar. In 1896 Behrens married Anna Matilda. The couple never had any children together.

In 1951, AIK prepared for its 60th anniversary. The then chairman Putte Kock and the HS secretary Nils Yngwe Bolling met Behrens at the retirement home, Katarinahuset, by Sabbatsberg, where he lived for the last time in his life. He promised to come to the anniversary party in the Grand Hotel's mirror hall. In the autumn of the same year he died, 83 years old. His grave is found at Norra begravningsplatsen in Solna.

Memories of Behrens 
Behrens is still one of AIK's foremost symbolic figures. To honor the memory of Isidor Behrens, AIK erected a new tombstone for the club's 100th anniversary. Where it has also undertaken to be responsible for the care of the burial site. Since November 6, 2016, a statue depicting Behrens and Putte Kock has been in place between Friends Arena and Mall of Scandinavia.
