1950 Red River flood

The 1950 Red River flood was a devastating flood that took place along the Red River in The Dakotas and Manitoba from April 15 to June 12, 1950. Damage was particularly severe in the city of Winnipeg and its environs, which were inundated on May 5, also known as Black Friday to some residents.

An estimated 70,000–100,000 residents had to be evacuated, and four of eleven bridges were destroyed. In that year, the Red River reached its highest level since 1861 and flooded most of the Red River Valley, more than . One man died, and property losses due to the flood were estimated at more than $600 million to one billion.

To prevent and reduce future damage, the government constructed the Red River Floodway, which was completed in 1968. It has been estimated to have prevented more than $100 billion (CAD) in cumulative flood damage.

Winnipeg

Although seasonal flooding was common, this flood surpassed the others. The north-flowing Red River was fed by flows resulting from melting of heavy snows in the winter and runoff from heavy rains in the spring. Eight dikes gave way and flooded much of Winnipeg, turning an estimated  of farmland in the area into an enormous lake. A total of more than  in the Red River Valley were flooded, from Emerson to  north to Greater Winnipeg. The depth of the flood waters on the farmland was between . The city turned to the Canadian Army and the Red Cross for help.

Four of eleven bridges in the city were destroyed and approximately 100,000 people had to be evacuated from their homes and businesses. This was the largest evacuation in Canadian history until the 1979 Mississauga train derailment. In Winnipeg there was one fatality; property damage was severe, with losses estimated at between $600 million and more than a billion dollars. The flood postponed opening day for baseball in the Mandak League due to inundation of Osborne Stadium. The league and president Jimmy Dunn arranged benefit games to raise money for Winnipeg's Flood Fund.

As a result of the damage, the government built the Red River Floodway, to divert flood waters from Winnipeg to more distant portions of the river. The project was completed in 1968 and has been used 20 times. From 1950 to about 1997, it was derogatorily referred to as "Duff's Ditch", after the premier (Dufferin Roblin) that built the floodway. It is estimated to have prevented more than $100 billion (CAD) in cumulative flood damage.  The Floodway was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 2000, and is considered an outstanding engineering achievement both in terms of function and effects.

United States
Flooding in the Red River Valley of the United States resulted in five deaths.

Love Isn't Easy (But It Sure Is Hard Enough)

"Love Isn't Easy (But It Sure Is Hard Enough)" is a country rock song recorded by Swedish pop group ABBA. It was the fifth single to be released from their album Ring Ring, but unusually, it was not issued in ABBA's home-country of Sweden, but elsewhere in Scandinavia. It was coupled with "I Am Just a Girl" as its B-side upon release in 1973. The song was one of the last songs to be recorded for the album Ring Ring.

The song describes the common phenomenon of a quarrel between lovers, and although the song's title seems to be self-contradictory, it's unlikely that it pertains to a sexual double entendre as some have believed it to be.

History
The song was written and composed by Benny Andersson & Björn Ulvaeus. All four members of the ABBA share the lead vocals.

Track listing
 "Love Isn't Easy (But It Sure Is Hard Enough)"
 "I Am Just a Girl"

Chart performance
The single's limited release did not generate a Top 10 chart placement anywhere, though it was a minor hit in some countries where it was released.  In Sweden, it reached #3 on the Tio i Topp singles chart, even though it wasn't issued as a single in that country.

West Village, Dallas

The West Village District is a walkable urban village in the Uptown area of Dallas, Texas. West Village is located at the northern edge of Uptown along McKinney Avenue and is bordered by Lemmon Avenue, Cole Avenue, Haskell Drive and Central Expressway.

West Village proper has 88 retail, restaurant and entertainment tenants within  and contains approximately 700 residential units. This has been the catalyst for the West Village District, which contains approximately 3,600 residential units, an emerging office market (including the Richard's Group Corporate Headquarters), and an estimated 500,000 square feet of gross leasable space - all within walking distance.

History
West Village, opened in 2001, was built on an undeveloped assembly that was cleared in the 1980s for a large, master-planned urban community to be known as CityPlace. West Village was developed by Urban Partners, Henry S. Miller Interests, Phoenix Property Company, and The CityPlace Company.

The original development, designed by Washington architect David M. Schwarz, is a mixed-use development with the retail portion managed by Urban Partners and the residential component managed by CIM. The name West Village is completely an attempt to link the development to the urban neighborhood in New York City. Over subsequent years, the development has continued to stimulate further development as thousands of urban apartment homes have been constructed in the immediate vicinity.

Transportation
West Village is two miles (3.2 km) north of Downtown Dallas. The DART  and  light rail lines stop at the Uptown/CityPlace station (located within the West Village District). The McKinney Avenue Transit Authority's M-line streetcar travels from downtown Dallas to Cityplace Station and loops around the West Village.

The Katy Trail, a noted Dallas running and biking corridor, is within a block of the development.

Squid-Jiggin' Ground

The Squid Jiggin' Ground written by Arthur Scammell (1928) is a song that describes a traditional way of life of local Newfoundland fisherman. The song is unique in that it describes the method of jigging for squid and the type of equipment and circumstance that revolve around the activity.

The song is sung to the traditional Irish jig Larry O'Gaff.

On 1 April 1949, in ceremonies marking Newfoundland's confederation with Canada, the tune was played as the representative song for Newfoundland on the carillon of the Peace Tower in Ottawa.

It was recorded by Hank Snow on a single for the Canadian market and by Finest Kind for their album Heart's Delight. Stompin' Tom Connors also sang the song back in 1973 at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto Canada, a performance available on his live DVD "Across This Land With Stompin Tom Connors".

Pachyrhachis

Pachyrhachis (from  , 'thick' and  , 'spine') is an extinct genus of snake with well developed hind legs known from fossils discovered in Ein Yabrud, near Ramallah, in the central West Bank. It is a relatively small snake, measuring more than  long at maximum. Pachyrhachis appears to have been an ancient marine snake; the fossils occur in a marine limestone deposit, and the thickened bone of the ribs and vertebrae would have functioned as ballast to decrease the buoyancy of the animal, allowing it to dive beneath the ancient Cretaceous seas that it once inhabited.

Pachyrhachis is one of three genera of Cenomanian snakes with hindlimbs. Although many modern pythons and boas still retain remnants of legs, in the form of small spurs, the tiny legs of Pachyrhachis included a hip, knee, and ankle joint. Pachyrhachis was originally described by Haas (1979, 1980) who noted it had a puzzling melange of snake and lizard features; its status as an early snake was later confirmed (Caldwell and Lee 1997).

The position of Pachyrhachis within snakes has been debated (e.g. Lee and Scanlon 2002; Rieppel et al. 2003). Pachyrhachis is among the oldest known snakes and retains well-developed hind limbs, suggesting it represented a transitional form linking snakes to marine lizards (Lee and Scanlon 2002), though other studies place Pachyrhachis within the modern snake radiation Macrostomata (Zaher & Rieppel, 1999).

Let the Wind Blow

"Let the Wind Blow" is a song by American rock band the Beach Boys from their 1967 album Wild Honey. Written by Mike Love and Brian Wilson, the song is a ballad with lyrics that metaphorically relate nature to the essence of love.

Background and composition
According to biographers Andrew Doe and John Tobler, "Let the Wind Blow" was composed primarily by Love and "rearranged" by Brian. It marked the first composition recorded by the group that is in  time from beginning to end.

In his analysis of the song, musicologist Daniel Harrison called it "the most arresting and compositionally assured song on the album" adding that "it echoes the formal and harmonic technique of 'God Only Knows'."

Critical reception
Stylus Magazine wrote: "'Let the Wind Blow' is a moody ballad that swirls and throbs with a subtle psychedelia more hinted at than indulged in; proof of a growing sophistication that improves upon the Smiley Smile formula." In 1968, Gene Sculatti said the song was further evidence of Wilson's "weird ear for melody". PopMatters wrote that, in contrast to the Wild Honey single "Darlin'", "'Let the Wind Blow' ... is forlorn and urgent, with a gripping chorus and somber production. It’s fantastic."

Variations
An alternate stereo mix of "Let the Wind Blow" was included on the rarities compilation Hawthorne CA (2001).
A live performance of the song appears on the album The Beach Boys in Concert (1973).

Ericsson Nikola Tesla

Ericsson Nikola Tesla d.d. is the Croatian affiliate of the Swedish telecommunications equipment manufacturer Ericsson. The company is named after the inventor Nikola Tesla and is the largest specialized provider of modern telecommunications products, solutions and services in central and eastern Europe.

The company is quoted on the Zagreb Stock Exchange, independently of Ericsson.

History
Ericsson Nikola Tesla traces its roots back to the state-owned Nikola Tesla Corporation founded in 1949 in Zagreb, then SFR Yugoslavia. It was very successful in the local telecommunications market, and the regional markets, especially of Europe, for over forty years. It became a licence partner of Ericsson of Sweden in 1953, selling large volumes of Ericsson systems into the USSR and other markets from 1958.

In 1977, the company began making Ericsson AXE switches under licence.

With the collapse of Yugoslavia and the independence of Croatia, the state began looking to privatize the corporation in the year 1992. By 1994, Ericsson emerged as the highest bidder and took a share of the corporation just short of majority ownership, integrating operations to a significant extent by 1995.

In 2011, the company was Croatia's eighth largest exporter.

Operations
The company is based in Zagreb, with some R&D activities in Split.  Staff number in excess of 1450.  Gordana Kovačević serves as president of Ericsson Nikola Tesla and head of its Management Board, while its Supervisory Board is normally headed by the head of the Ericsson Market Unit which includes Croatia.

Significant customers exist in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina, as well as Russia, other states of the former USSR and SFR Yugoslavia, and parts of Africa and the Middle East, and the company markets to Croatia, foreign markets and the Ericsson Group.  Sixty percent of sales are exports.

Finances
Sales for 2007 totalled 1.78 billion US$, having risen year-on-year for many years.  Steadily rising costs of sales have eroded profit, with net income being just under 200 million US$ for 2007.

Market capitalization exceeds US$300 million.

Tasmanian froglet

The Tasmanian froglet (Crinia tasmaniensis) is a species of ground-dwelling frog that occurs only in Tasmania, Australia.

Description

This is a fairly small species of frog, up to about 30 mm. It is variable, but is generally brown (dark to reddish) or grey and can have spots or blotches of another colour, at times this species can be completely dark brown or black, with no variation in colour throughout the dorsal surface. The dorsal surface can be bumpy or smooth. There is often a reddish stripe present from the nostril down the side. The ventral surface is mostly white, however it has some red and dark blotches as well as red in the thighs.

Ecology and behaviour

This species of frog is only found in Tasmania. It inhabits shallow streams, temporary ponds and puddles, dams, swamps and soaks, mostly at higher altitudes throughout most of the state. It is frequently encountered in the west of the state. It can be found in rainforest, cleared, woodland and alpine habitats.

Males make a lamb-like call, , from land beside water or while floating in water, mainly in spring and summer.

Up to 100 eggs are laid in still water all year round. The eggs have rather large capsules, about . Tadpoles are brown-grey and reach  in length. Development takes about 3 months and metamorph are about  and resemble the adult.

This is one of only three species of frogs endemic to Tasmania.

Clady, County Tyrone

Clady () is a small village and townland in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. It lies about 4 miles from Strabane on the River Finn and borders the Republic of Ireland. In the 2011 Census it had a population of 538 people. It is within Urney civil parish and the former barony of Strabane Lower. In local government it is part of the Derry City and Strabane District Council. The townland covers an area of 173 acres.

History 
The village is one of the oldest in the district. The village is referred to as Claudy in Samuel Lewis' Topographical Dictionary of Ireland, but early and later works attribute the name, Clady, distinguishing it from Claudy in County Londonderry.

Next to the village is an important passage over the River Finn, one of the "passes", which controlled the access to Londonderry from the south and east in the times when the ferry at Londonderry was the only means to cross the River Foyle. Originally, the passage at Clady was provided by a ford, known as the Cladyford. Soon a bridge was built, which existed already in the 17th century. According to Lewis in 1840, a "handsome bridge of seven arches" spanned the river near the village.

This passage over the Finn was contested during the Williamite War on 15 April 1689 when Jacobite cavalry under Richard Hamilton and the Duke of Berwick forced the passage. Some days later James II crossed the Finn at this place, proceeded to Londonderry and summoned the city to surrender. With these events started the Siege of Derry.

In February 1922, during the Irish War of Independence, an Ulster Special Constabulary platoon attempting to enter Clady were forced to withdraw two nights in a row after coming under fire from the Irish Republican Army. One USC officer was killed in the clashes.

Long, Long Ago

"Long, Long Ago" is a song dealing with nostalgia, written in 1833 by English composer Thomas Haynes Bayly. Originally called "The Long Ago", its name was apparently changed by the editor Rufus Wilmot Griswold when it was first published, posthumously, in a Philadelphia magazine, along with a collection of other songs and poems by Bayly. The song was well received, and became one of the most popular songs in the United States in 1844.

The first popular recording of the song was that by Geraldine Farrar for the Victor Talking Machine Company in 1913.

In 1939, the tune was given new words (revised slightly in 1941) and a bouncier tempo.  It became the 1942 Glenn Miller hit "Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree (With Anyone Else but Me)".

Other recordings
Louis Armstrong - recorded March 10, 1941 for Decca Records (catalog No. 3700A).
In 1950, Patti Page recorded a cover as an alternate flip side to her hit record, "Tennessee Waltz".
Jo Stafford and Gordon MacRae - for the album Songs for Sunday Evening (1950)
The Mills Brothers - included in the album Famous Barber Shop Ballads Volume Two (1949).
Nat King Cole and Dean Martin - a single release for Capitol Records (1954).
Bing Crosby included the song in a medley on his album Join Bing and Sing Along  (1959)
Sam Cooke - for his album Swing Low (1961)
Marty Robbins - included in the compilation album Long Long Ago (1984).
 A Hungarian version begins with the line "" ("Do you still remember old tales?").

List of mayors of Slough

This list of mayors of Slough starts with the first elected mayor, who was also the charter mayor named in the first Royal Charter when Slough became a Municipal Borough in 1938 (having previously been an Urban District).

Slough is a town in the South East England region of the United Kingdom. Until 1974, it was part of the Administrative county of Buckinghamshire and thereafter it was in the county of Berkshire. From 1998 it has been a unitary authority.

Since 1938, there has been a mayor of Slough elected at the annual meeting in every municipal year, by and from the members of the borough council.

The start of what was originally the 194748 municipal year was changed from November 1948 to May 1949, so that John Ernest Taylor's second term as mayor lasted for about 18months.

In 1986, W.F. Back became the first mayor to die in office. Douglas Cyril Gibbs was elected to fill the vacancy for the remainder of the 1985-86 municipal year. He was re-elected for the 198687 municipal year.

In 2015, Shafiq Ahmed Chaudhry became the first mayor of Slough to resign during his term of office. For the remainder of the 201415 municipal year, the office of mayor was left vacant. Mohammed Rasib, the deputy mayor for 201415, presided over council meetings in that capacity until he was elected mayor for the 201516 municipal year.

San Antonio River (California)

The San Antonio River is a  river in southern Monterey County, California. The river was used as an irrigation source for Mission San Antonio de Padua.

Geography
The river travels southeast from its headwaters in the Santa Lucia Range in the Los Padres National Forest and into Lake San Antonio. This is a reservoir behind the San Antonio Dam, an earth-fill dam on the river that forms the largest lake in the county.  Downstream from the dam, the river travels east until it joins the Salinas River.

The Nacimiento River, which feeds Lake Nacimiento and is also a Salinas River tributary, parallels the San Antonio River's path several miles to the southwest.

Ecology
After depletion by 19th century fur trappers, California golden beaver (Castor canadensis subauratus) have expanded their range from the San Antonio River below the reservoir to the Salinas River mainstem.

Antic Software

Antic Software was a software company associated with Antic, a magazine for the Atari 8-bit family of computers. Bound into issues of the magazine, the Antic Software catalog initially sold Atari 8-bit games, applications, and utilities from the recently defunct Atari Program Exchange. Original submissions were later added, as well as public domain collections, with all software provided on self-documented disk. When the Atari ST was released, it became a mixture of Atari 8-bit and Atari ST software and sold some major Atari ST titles such as CAD-3D. The magazine insert changed names several times, eventually being branded as The Catalog.

Antic assistant editor Gigi Bisson wrote in the May 1986 issue that, "[Antic Software] kept the magazine afloat during the lean year," referring to the period following Atari, Inc.'s financial collapse.

History
When the  Atari Program Exchange (APX) was shut down by Atari CEO James J. Morgan in 1984, Gary Yost convinced Antic magazine's publisher, James Capparell, to create Antic Software. Yost contacted many of the programmers from APX to re-publish their works with Antic. The APX software was rebranded in mid-1984 as APX Classics from Antic. In 1985 the magazine insert was called Antic Arcade (despite including more than games). By 1986 it was branded The Catalog with the emphasis on Atari ST applications.

Rio Grande Wild and Scenic River

The Rio Grande Wild and Scenic River is a U.S. National Wild and Scenic River that protects  of the Rio Grande in New Mexico and Texas, in the United States. The designation was first applied in 1968 to a  stretch of the river in New Mexico; an additional  of the river in Texas was added in 1978, followed by another  in New Mexico in 1994.

The New Mexico portion of the Wild and Scenic River runs from the New Mexico–Colorado border approximately  south. The lower  of the Red River, a tributary of the Rio Grande in Taos County, New Mexico, was also added to the Wild and Scenic River System. The two rivers intersect in the Wild Rivers Recreation Area.

Approximately  of the Wild and Scenic River in Texas is within Big Bend National Park; the remainder is downstream of Big Bend. Three rugged canyons are preserved under this designation: Boquillas Canyon is the most accessible, as it can be reached via a popular RV campground; Mariscal Canyon can only be entered via a high-clearance four-wheel-drive vehicle; and entrance to the Lower Canyon, due to rapid size, is only possible by signing a National Park Service liability or "acknowledgement of risk" waiver. The Wild and Scenic River designation does not include Santa Elena Canyon, which is the most popular recreational area in Big Bend.

Cuckoo Clock (song)

"Cuckoo Clock" is a song written by Brian Wilson and Gary Usher for the American rock band The Beach Boys. It was released on their 1962 album Surfin' Safari. The song was written about the myna bird of Brian's father Murry Wilson.

Composition
"Cuckoo Clock" relates the story of a teenage couple trying to spend time together. When things start to get romantic, however, they are interrupted by a cuckoo clock. In the final verse, the teenage boy dismantles the clock so they will not be bothered again. The song is in basic verse-chorus-bridge form. The organ solo in the bridge points the way towards future Beach Boys songs.

Recording
"Cuckoo Clock" was recorded on September 6, 1962, at the last Surfin' Safari session. While Nik Venet is officially credited as producer, some of the participants claim that Brian Wilson did the production work.
