Henry Z (Hank) Jones Jr. (born June 3, 1940) is an American actor, musician, genealogist and author. He became known to a wide audience primarily through his appearances in Disney films.

Life

Hank was born in Oakland, California and raised in San Leandro, California. He attended San Leandro High School and Stanford University majoring in communications. While in school he was singer in the band Hank Jones & The White Bucks, as a student he formed the duo Hank and Dean with his schoolfriend Dean Kay. They had their first record contract with RCA Victor in 1961. Later albums were recorded with Capitol and Epitomé Records. Hank and Dean got into television entertainment in 1962 and performed in ABC's Tennessee Ernie Ford Show. Dean was drafted in 1963 and the duo dissolved. Dean became a music publishing executive, Hank's emphasis shifted towards TV entertainment and show-biz. He starred in eight Disney films in the 1960s and 1970s.

On television, Hank had roles in My Three Sons (1960) with Fred MacMurray and William Frawley and in the Patty Duke Show (1963). He was featured in many comedy programs of the 1960s and 1970s, including Petticoat Junction (1963), Love, American Style (1969), The Jeffersons (1975), Love Boat (1977), Mork & Mindy (1978) and many others. One of his most interesting roles was playing the twin brother of the Beatle Ringo Starr (after five hours of makeup every day) in a TV version of Mark Twain's Prince & The Pauper. Over the years, Hank was featured in countless television commercials, some of which have won awards (for MacDonalds, Hai Karate After Shave, Honda, and Dial Soap) and were shown on NBC's World's Greatest Commercials. A longtime songwriter and member of ASCAP, Hank's song Midnight Swinger recorded by Mel Tormé in 1970 obtained a preliminary Grammy nomination. In 1986 Hank featured three times as the champion on the popular TV quiz show Jeopardy!

In 1981 he withdrew from the entertainment industry and increasingly turned to genealogy, his hobby from childhood. One of his ancestors was Abraham Bergmann, who emigrated in 1709 with a group of German Palatines from Iggelheim from the Electoral Palatinate to County Limerick in Ireland. Hank studied the records of the entire group of emigrants intensively and over the years published several books on this subject, first The Palatine Families of Ireland (1965, 2nd expanded edition 1990), then his main work The Palatine Families of New York (2 volumes, 1985). The work documents the origins and whereabouts of the 847 Palatinate families settled in New York State and won the 1986 Donald Lines Jacobus Award for the best genealogical work and the Award of Merit from the National Genealogical Society. Hank was elected as one of the 50 fellows to the American Society of Genealogists, of which he later became president. He was also a fellow of the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society.

From his second marriage he has a daughter Amanda. He lives in San Diego with his wife, Bonnie.

WHHO (1320 AM) was a radio station broadcasting a sports talk format. Licensed to Hornell, New York, United States, the station served the Elmira-Corning area. The station was owned by Bilbat Radio, Inc. (at the time of closure, wholly owned by William Berry after the death of partner Bat Lyons). The station had been the home of Eric Massa's weekly radio broadcasts. Gene Burns, a Hornell native, began his long broadcasting career at the station.

History
In 1946, the W.H. Greenhow Co, owner of the Hornell Evening Tribune, launched WWHG-FM 105.3 as Hornell's first radio station. The call letters WHG are the initials of the company.

WLEA, a competitor owned by Canisteo Radio Corporation, came on the air on 1320 kHz at 1 KW Daytime as part of the post-World War II radio boom in 1946. Shortly after that, WWHG was granted a Conditional Permit and then license to operate on 1590 kHz at 1 KW Day. Faced with direct competition, WLEA went into bankruptcy, with most of the office fixtures and equipment having been sold to Cary Simpson for WFRM in Coudersport, Pennsylvania.

With WLEA 1320 AM now out of the picture, its license was transferred from Canisteo Radio Corporation in December 1950 to the W.H. Greenhow Company, and WWHG vacated its dial position at 1590 and migrated to 1320 kHz, on which frequency the FCC permits higher power. WLEA returned to the air under different ownership months later on 1480 kHz. WWHG then applied for a construction permit in February 1951 to move its transmitter site from Bald Hill Road to Meeks Hill Road, and to move its studios and offices from 99 Main Street to 85 Canisteo Street in Hornell, above the Hornell Evening Tribune offices. In June 1956, The W.H. Greenhow Company sold the station to RA-Tel Broadcasters, Inc. In November of that year, the station was granted permission to increase its power to 5,000 watts, but still retaining its daytime-only status.

The following year, the owner principals in RA-Tel Broadcasters changed, but the company name was retained until August 1968, when the company was renamed Steuben Broadcasters, Inc. In October 1967, the station was granted permission to operate with a pre-sunrise authority power of 500 watts, enabling it to sign on at 6am year-round.

The call sign was changed to WHHO on October 7, 1968.

In July 1970, the station was sold by Steuben Broadcasters to Southeastern Publications, Inc., but Steuben Broadcasters remained the name of the licensee. The following year, studios and offices for the station were moved to 1484 Beech Street in Hornellsville, just outside Hornell.

In December 1974, the station was sold again, this time to Jonas Terman and Donald Hartman, but the Steuben Broadcasters name was still retained. . The licensee and ownership changed one last time on June 10, 1983, to Bilbat Broadcast Bunch, owned by Richard "Bat" Lyons and William Berry. WHHO and WKPQ were sold to Bilbat for $450,000.

The station was caught in an ownership dispute in the late 2000s in which Pembrook Pines Media Group attempted to buy sister station WKPQ in exchange for Pembrook Pines-owned WABH and cash; that deal eventually fell through.

Decline and failure
WHHO ceased operations on January 28, 2010 after the FCC revoked its license for failure to pay a 2007 fine, stemming from alleged failure to air government-mandated statements and not maintaining a "public information file."

Owner William Berry, who made WHHO his own personal project in an attempt to turn it back towards profitability, cited WHHO's poor revenue for not paying the fine.

Incidentally, WHHO is the second Bilbat station to have lost its license; WKZA Kane, Pennsylvania lost its license in 1992, and while another person owned the FCC license, Bilbat still owned the physical assets of the station, which were ultimately destroyed due to weather damage.

Shortly after the station's closure, Fox Sports programming moved to WCBA in Corning; Phoenix Radio arranged to swap WCBA for WKPQ in 2010. WCBA ultimately also lost its license in 2022 after operating sporadically for the previous three years.

Chain Letter is an American game show produced by Stefan Hatos-Monty Hall Productions that aired on NBC during the summer and early-fall of 1966.  Comedian Jan Murray hosted this game show, while Wendell Niles did the announcing.

Game play

Main round
Two teams, each with one celebrity (team captain), and a studio contestant, competed against each other.

A category was stated such as "Items you might find in a lady's handbag" or "Gifts for the boss's birthday". The first player would have ten seconds to give a word pertaining to the category. Then, the next player would have ten seconds to give another word in the same category using the last letter of the previous word as the first letter of the new word. Each player alternated giving answers until a bad answer was given or their guessing time ran out causing the chain to be broken. The team earned one point for each acceptable answer with the opposing team earning one bonus point when the chain was broken and control of the next category.

At the end of a three-minute game, the team with the most points wins the game, a $100 bonus, and the right to play the bonus round.

Bonus round
The championship team was given a chain word and the players alternated forming words in a similar manner from that word. The contestant player earned $20 for each acceptable word until the chain was broken.

Pilots

Three of a Kind
The first pilot was developed under the title "Three of a Kind" and taped in January, 1964, with CBS Sports Jack Whitaker as emcee and co-creator/producer Monty Hall as announcer. The game was played similarly but with three players, one celebrity and two "occupationally themed" contestants, competing against each other in a two round format.

The first round featured three categories and the opposing team's choice of category for the controlling team. The last category was not played. Each acceptable response was worth $10 and each team member alternated giving responses, with no last letter-first letter restriction, until they could not give any more.

The second round played with the eventual "Chain Letter" rules but with $20 for each acceptable word. There was no bonus game.

1964 pilot
The second pilot and the first with the "Chain Letter" name was taped in December 1964; with Dennis James as emcee. This game was played with four civilian contestants alternating. Each player naming items pertaining to a category at $5 per acceptable item. Each player who gave the most acceptable responses in a round also earned $25–$100 bonuses per round. Five rounds were played, each with a different category.

Episode status
The series is presumed to be destroyed due to network practices. Only the December 1964 pilot and the premiere exist, the latter of which is in color.

Dee Wright Observatory is an observation structure at the summit of McKenzie Pass in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon.  The structure is an open shelter constructed with lava stone.  It is located in the midst of a large lava flow, and offers an exceptional view of numerous Cascade peaks.

Location
Dee Wright Observatory is located in the Willamette National Forest 15 miles (24 km) west of Sisters, Oregon on Route 242.  The highway is part of the McKenzie-Santiam Pass Scenic Byway.  McKenzie Pass is  above sea level, and winter snow and the narrow road surface requires McKenzie Pass to be closed to motor vehicles from November to July each year. It is at times accessible to cyclists when the road is closed to vehicles.

Structure
The observatory is an open shelter built with basaltic andesite lava found at the construction site.  The viewing windows are cut to specifically highlight the neighboring mountains.  These "lava tube" viewing holes allow visitors to easily identify the different Cascade peaks.  There is also a 36 inch (90 cm) diameter, bronze azimuth-like "peak finder" on the observatory’s roof to help visitors locate nearby geologic features as well as the surrounding mountain peaks.  From the top of the observatory, visitors have a panoramic view of the Cascade Mountain Range including Mount Hood in the far north.

Many peaks can easily be seen from Dee Wright Observatory: Mount Jefferson, Cache Mountain, Dugout Butte, Black Butte, Bluegrass Butte, Black Crater, North Sister, Middle Sister, Little Brother (and ridge west), Condon Butte, Scott Mountain, South Belknap Cone, Belknap Crater, Little Belknap, and Mount Washington.  Mount Hood, Bald Peter, Green Ridge, and Horsepasture Mountain can also be seen from the observatory during good weather.

The half-mile long Lava River Interpretive Trail begins at the observatory, and takes visitors on a 30-minute walk through lava beds.  The trail is paved and easy to follow.  Interpretive panels, located along the trail highlight the geology of the area.  The trail also offers open vistas of the surrounding landscape.

History
McKenzie Pass follows the path of an 1860 wagon route.  The route emerges from the forest and crosses a  lava flow.  At the summit, the wagon road had to be cut through the lava beds.  As a result, alternate routes over the Cascades were used by most early travelers.  Today’s highway follows the wagon route over the lava beds past the observatory site.

The observatory was built during the Great Depression by a Civilian Conservation Corps crew at Camp Belknap near Clear Lake. It was completed in 1935, and named for the construction crew’s foreman who had died the previous year after serving 24 years as a Forest Service packer and crew foreman at Camp Belknap.

In addition to Dee Wright Observatory, the rough-hewn timber shelter built by the Civilian Conservation Corps at Camp Belknap still stands near Clear Lake.  Both sites are maintained by the United States Forest Service.  Today, Dee Wright Observatory is visited by thousands of travelers crossing McKenzie Pass each summer.

Tibbitt Lake is a lake in the Canadian Northwest Territories.

Located  east of Yellowknife, the lake marks the northern terminus of the Ingraham Trail.  In winter, an ice road known as the Tibbitt to Contwoyto Winter Road extends from the end of the Ingraham Trail to Contwoyto Lake in Nunavut, forming the latter territory's only road access to the rest of Canada.  The lake is named after John Francis Tibbitt, a field geologist who mapped the Yellowknife area with the Geological Survey of Canada in 1935.

Franz Seraph Hanfstaengl (1 March 1804 in  near Bad Tölz – 18 April 1877 in Munich) was a Bavarian painter, lithographer, and photographer.

Life
Hanfstaengl originated from a commoner family and in 1816 came on the recommendation of the town-school-teachers into the drawing-class of the leave-day school at Munich led by Hermann Joseph Mitterer. He was instructed in lithography, he had contact with Alois Senefelder and studied from 1819 to 1825 at the Munich Academy of Fine Arts. In 1826, he went to Dresden and began his great work, completed in 1852, of copying in lithograph the canvases of the Dresden Gallery. Between 1835 and 1852  Hanfstaengl brought out about 200 lithographic reproductions of masterworks from the Dresden picture-gallery, and published them in a portfolio. When he returned to Munich, he left his establishment at Dresden to his brothers Max and Hans.

In 1833 he founded in Munich a lithographic establishment of his own, which he operated until 1868, and to which he later attached a fine art printing shop and (in 1853) a photographic workshop. Hanfstaengl won for himself much popularity as the portrait lithographer of Munich society, being nicknamed 'Count Litho'.
Later, he became court photographer and produced portraits of distinguished persons, amongst others of the young King Ludwig II, of Franz Liszt, Otto von Bismarck and Empress Elisabeth of Austria.  In 1858 Hanfstaengl tutored renowned French photographer Antoine Samuel Adam-Salomon.

He influenced his brother-in-law, the Austrian physician, inventor and politician Norbert Pfretzschner senior in the evolving of the photographic dry-plate in 1866. He was married to Franziska Wegmeier (1809–1860), by whom he became the father of Edgar Hanfstaengl. Another family member, Erwin von Hanfstaengl, in 1873 married the opera-singer Marie Schröder.

The Door with Seven Locks is a 1940 British horror film, created and released shortly after the British Board of Film Censors lifted its mid-1930s ban on supernatural-themed and horror genre films. It was based on the 1926 novel The Door with Seven Locks by Edgar Wallace. Released in the United States by Monogram Pictures under the title Chamber of Horrors, it was the second Wallace film adaptation to arrive in the United States, the first being The Dark Eyes of London (called The Human Monster in the US), starring Béla Lugosi, which had been released the year before.

Plot
A wealthy lord dies and is entombed with a valuable deposit of jewels. Seven keys are required to unlock the tomb and get hold of the treasure. A series of mysterious events causes the keys to be scattered, and when trying to unravel the circumstances, the heiress of the fortune and her companion investigators become entangled in a web of fraud, deceit, torture, and murder.

It becomes obvious that family physician, Dr. Manetta, is the untrustworthy person. Assi sted by the mute family
butler and the family chauffeur (a forger on  the run), Manetta seeks to steal the treasure for himself. When rightful heiress June Lansdowne arrives, she is seized and locked in the tomb before she can announce her presence. She is eventually freed by a pet monkey that steals the key to the tomb.

Suspicion grows when Dr.Manetta announces he is an admirer of Torquemada (the chief torturer during the Spanish Inquisition); and that he keeps a museum of torture instruments in the basement.

When the authorities close in, Manetta is trapped in an automatic spiked mummy case. The police reluctantly rescue him. Manetta makes a full confession, then commits suicide by poison. He is proud that he killed himself with a goblet once owned by Lucretia Borgia.

The treasure is discovered inside the tomb, the one place Manetta didn't search because he didn't want to call attention to Lansdowne's captivity there.

Kathleen Flinn (born June 1, 1967) is an American writer, journalist and chef.  She is best known for the 2007 New York Times bestseller, The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry.

Early life

Flinn was born in Davison, Michigan, to Milton G. Flinn Sr., a foreman for General Motors' AC Spark Plug plant in Flint. Her mother was also employed by GM in its personnel department. She was the youngest of five siblings. All were significantly older, so by the time she entered elementary school, she was the only child living at home. Flinn states she began cooking at age eight to feed herself as a latchkey kid, and began writing stories around the same time. At the age of 11, she and her parents abruptly moved to Anna Maria Island in Florida due her father's terminal cancer diagnosis; he died two years later. Her third book focuses on these early years in her life.

Before she graduated from Manatee High School, she decided she didn't want to go to college in Florida. She said she threw a dart at a map and it landed landed on Gary, Indiana, so she packed up her car and move to Chicago, the closest major city. She was 18 and had never been there.

Books
Flinn's debut book, The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry was the first to provide an in-depth look of attending and graduating from the famed Paris culinary school Le Cordon Bleu.  The book has been translated into several languages and sold in more than 60 countries worldwide.

After losing her job due to a management reorganization, 36-year-old Flinn decided to cash in her savings to attend the famed culinary school, graduating with a diplome de cuisine in 2005. Throughout the book, Flinn intersperses dozens of recipes, accounts of her "wretchedly inadequate" French, stories of competitive classmates and the love story of her emerging relationship with her husband. Early in the book, she shares that she began dreaming of attending the famous cooking school while writing obituaries at The Sarasota Herald-Tribune. The Seattle Times referred to the book "a very personal memoir of transformation, as well as an insider's look at Le Cordon Bleu, the first of its kind." The book earned generally positive reviews on its debut and earned a spot on The New York Times bestseller list as well as being included on numerous "best of" lists for 2007 before being named a finalist for the Washington State Book Award in General Non-fiction in 2008. The film rights to the work were purchased by a division of 20th Century Fox.

Her second book, The Kitchen Counter Cooking School (Viking/Penguin, October 2011) chronicles a year-long project inspired by a supermarket encounter with a woman loading up on processed foods. Flinn used her culinary training to help novice cooks find their cooking confidence and in the process, reported on the state of home cooking in general. The book earned a 2012 ASJA Award for Best Book in the Non-Fiction Autobiography/Memoir category from the American Society of Journalists and Authors

Viking/Penguin published her third book, Burnt Toast Makes You Sing Good, a multi-generational culinary memoir about growing up in her home state of Michigan. The title refers to her grandmother's phrase meant to coax the youngest kids to eat burnt toast. Flinn reflected it had a metaphorical meaning, "that going through something tough is good for you, or what doesn't kill you makes you stronger." That book was a finalist in several book awards, including Goodreads Readers Choice Awards and the International Association of Culinary Professionals, and was named a Michigan Notable Book.

Outside of her book publishing career, Flinn's work has been featured in more than three dozen publications worldwide.

Popularity in Japan

In 2017, Flinn's second book, The Kitchen Counter Cooking School, was translated into Japanese under the title Dameonnatachi no Jinsei wo Kaeta Kiseki no Ryouri Kyoushitsu which loosely translates to Magical Recipes for Bad Women. The book was a bestseller, and among the few translated works that reached the top 30 in sales on Amazon.jp that year. In 2018, Flinn announced that she was working on a new book specifically for the Japanese market. The resulting book, Sakana Lesson, debuted in June 2019 from CCC Media House.

Other notable work

While earning a B.A. in journalism at Columbia College Chicago, she held internships at Adweek and Playboy magazines and worked as a stringer for the Chicago Sun-Times before launching on a journalism career that included newspapers and magazines. Notably, she was founding editor-in-chief of Internet Underground,, a print magazine about the internet launched in 1994 which later developed a cult following. She was recruited by Microsoft as one of a handful of writers to develop the prototype of what would become Sidewalk.com, the company's network of online city guides In 2000, while working as a lead in the editorial operations for the company's MSN operation in London, she was among a small team that pulled together Madonna's "come back" concert at the Brixton Academy; with 11 million viewers, the event was listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest live webcast for several years.

Personal
Flinn is married to Michael Klozar, a Microsoft former colleague turned entrepreneur; their courtship is part of the story in The Sharper Your Knife. They have divided their time between residences in Seattle and Anna Maria Island, Florida, since 2004, after they married at the home once owned by Fred Hutchinson on Beach Avenue.

Ricardo Kirk (1874 – 1 March 1915) was the first Brazilian Army Aviator. Kirk was born in Campos dos Goytacazes, Rio de Janeiro state, Brazil. In 1891 he entered the Military Academy and he was promoted to ensign in November 1893 and to first-lieutenant in March 1898 and posthumously to captain in 1915.

He is considered the Brazilian Army Aviation Patron.

History

Kirk was the first Brazilian Army officer to learn how to pilot airplanes. He graduated from École d’Aviation d’Étampes (France) on 22 October 1912. When he returned to Brazil, he was one of the founders of the Brazilian Airclub, where he was assigned as technical director.

The crash
When the Contestado War broke out on the borders of the states Paraná and Santa Catarina, Lt Ricardo Kirk was convened by General Setembrino de Carvalho to conduct air operations in support of land operations, which meant flying reconnaissance missions.
Three monoplanes were dispatched to the area of conflict under the command of Lieutenant Ricardo Kirk, with one of the other airmen being the Italian civilian Ernesto Darioli. They were stationed at União da Vitória aviation field. The three aircraft, plus one that had been destroyed in a confrontation between Rio de Janeiro and União da Vitória, were the remainder of the "Brazilian School of Aviation" fleet, which had operated from Afonsos field, Rio de Janeiro, in 1914.

During one of the reconnaissance missions on 1 March 1915 near General Carneiro in the state of Santa Catarina, Kirk had a mechanical failure leading to a serious accident in which Kirk was killed. The weather conditions at the time of the accident were bad and the visibility was poor.

The monument

On the site of the accident, a monument named "The Aviator Cross" was erected. Originally, it consisted only of a wooden cross, made by farmers who had helped the injured airman using sleepers of the Contestado Railroad with the name of Kirk carved in it with a knife. On 5 October 1980 another monument was inaugurated around the cross by the city of General Carneiro. It consists of a reinforced concrete structure symbolising Kirk's plane. On 10 March 2002 the Command of the Brazilian Army Aviation had a bronze bust of Ricardo Kirk erected at the spot.

In October 1943, the remains of Lieutenant Kirk were moved to the Mausoleum of Aviadores in São João Batista cemetery in Rio de Janeiro. In 1996 they were interred in a monument in his honour, built by the Command of the Army Aviation in Taubaté.

In the northeastern corner of Afonsos Field, one of the most important Brazilian Air Force bases, a hill is named in honour of the precursor of the military aviation, Ricardo Kirk.

The 49th Infantry Division was a unit of the United States Army National Guard during the Cold War.

It was formed from the 52nd Infantry Division, which had itself been activated in 1946 during the expansion of National Guard after the end of World War II. The 52nd was renumbered as the 49th in 1947 due to the centennial of the California Gold Rush. It was inactivated in 1968 during a reorganization of the Army National Guard.

History
The 52nd Infantry Division was activated on 15 August 1946, and was allocated to the State of California as a National Guard division during the post World War II demobilization. The division was to be headquartered in the area of th "49'ers" of the California Gold Rush. To mark the upcoming centenary of the 1849 gold rush, the state of California requested that the designation of the 52nd Infantry Division be changed to the 49th Infantry Division.

The change was approved by a National Guard Bureau Letter, CSNGB, dated 24 October 1947, Subject: "Change in Designation of 52d Infantry Division" and an Adjutant General Letter, AGAO-I 325 dated 20 October 1947, Subject: "Allotment of National Guard Units (California)".  The change was made retroactive to 5 August 1946, the formation of the original 52nd Infantry Division. The new division was known as the "Argonaut Division", and its shoulder sleeve insignia depicted a 49'er panning for gold. The nickname refers to the 49'ers, who were also known as Argonauts. The 49th Infantry Division was inactivated on 29 January 1968.

WICB (91.7 FM) is a radio station licensed to serve Ithaca, New York, United States.  Established in 1941 and receiving its FCC license in 1948, the station is owned by Ithaca College.

WICB broadcasts an alternative music format to the greater Ithaca area. Along with alternative music, the student-run radio station reserves programming for several different formats—including jazz, reggae, blues, hip-hop, sports, news, and more. The station features news programming from ABC News.

WICB also has a News and Sports Department run by student executives, featuring daily live newscasts and sportscasts, plus weekly talk shows and play-by-play sports coverage.

The radio station broadcasts locally at 91.7FM, as well as online streaming at wicb.org, iHeartRadio, TuneIn, and their own WICB app.

History
In 1941, make-shift radio studios were built at 120 E. Buffalo Street in Ithaca, New York. It was a grassroots attempt at broadcasting with little equipment and without transmitters, just room-to-room public address type broadcasting. In 1947, Ithaca College's Radio Department moved to expanded quarters at 101 West Court Street and applied to the FCC for a non-commercial educational FM broadcast license. The FCC granted Ithaca College the license in 1948 and the station went on-the-air operating at 88.1 FM with 10 watts of power and the call letters WITJ-FM. On March 1, 1957, the call letters were changed to WICB-FM with a new dial setting of 91.7 FM.

WICB's studio moved to the basement of Dillingham Center in 1968, then to the Roy H. Park School of Communications in 1989.

92 WICB is an affiliate of both ABC News and the Associated Press, and has active news and sports departments, which cover Ithaca College sports teams including football, soccer, baseball, softball, basketball, volleyball, wrestling and lacrosse.

The radio station is Ithaca College's only FCC-licensed broadcast facility, and is in operation 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The Radio Station currently operates with 4,100 watts of effective radiated power that is able to reach much of Tompkins County and beyond. The signal is capable of reaching nearly 250,000 listeners from parts of Northern Pennsylvania up to Lake Ontario. The station also streams its programming live at wicb.org, iHeartRadio, TuneIn, and on the WICB app.

The station has a long-standing annual tradition of playing the radio station of Ithaca College's rival, SUNY Cortland, in a football game called the "Cortaca Mic". The game takes place in Cortland the evening before the annual Cortaca Jug game.

WICB is run almost entirely by a staff of student DJs and executives. Students of all majors are encouraged to work on the radio. First-year students all the way up to seniors at Ithaca College are allowed to be a part of WICB, though there is a required shadowing process along with an air check and written quiz. Aside from a technical and upper management support staff, all programming, talent coordination and promotions decisions are left up to a rotating executive board of students.

Awards and honors
WICB was recognized and ranked the #1 college radio station out of 364 colleges by the Princeton Review in 2010, 2014, and most recently in 2016. The Princeton Review's 2023 edition of "The Best 388 Colleges" ranked Ithaca College's WICB at #3 in the Best College Radio Station category.

WICB has been honored as a top radio station in the College Media Association's annual Pinnacle Awards competition. The station took first place as Four-Year Radio Station of the Year in 2020. It was named an honorable mention in the same category in 2021 and placed third in 2019.

In 2016, readers of the Ithaca Journal voted WICB as "Best Local Radio Station"  In 2005 and 2010, readers of the Ithaca Times voted 92 WICB "Best Radio Station." In 2008, WICB won an mtvU Woodie Award for Best College Radio Station.

WICB is an active member of College Broadcasters, Inc (CBI) and consistently places in the finals for the annual National Student Media Electronic Convention hosted by CBI. The station has also won awards from the New York State Broadcasters Association (NYSBA), Broadcast Education Association (BEA), Society of Professional Journalists (SPJ) and Syracuse Press Club, recognizing outstanding news and sports coverage, plus on-air production and music programming.

Programming
WICB's staple format is modern rock.  While broadcasting modern rock, the station is run similarly to a commercial modern rock station, with the inclusion of playlists planned by the programming and music departments that include leeway for listener requests and DJ choices. Listeners are encouraged to call or text in and request songs for the DJs to play. WICB's full programming schedule is online at wicb.org/schedule.

Other major programming genres include Weekend Rhythms, Jazz Impressions and a number of specialty shows. Weekend Rhythms includes rap, hip-hop, and R&B. Jazz Impressions runs during the lunchtime every weekday and showcases both classic and modern jazz artists. Other specialty programs are run by both student DJs and community members. Many of the shows have developed loyal listener bases from being on the air for a number of years. Shows come from genres like the popularly syndicated Acoustic Café, blues, Broadway, reggae, and Americana/folk not normally heard on public airwaves.

Outside of mainstream music, WICB also provides an outlet for local bands. There is both a specialty show specifically for local music as well as segments throughout the day where local music is scheduled to be played. Very often bands will be brought in to perform live during "Homebrew" in addition to playing recordings from local groups. "Homebrew," the station's weekly local music show, airs Tuesday evenings from 8:00 - 10:00 PM and received a New York State Broadcasters Association (NYSBA) 2023 Excellence in Broadcasting Award in the Outstanding Radio Show (College Radio Division) category.

Aside from music, WICB has expanded both sports and talk radio segments in recent years. WICB has also expanded into music, news and sports podcasts. Both the News and Sports departments at WICB are directed by student executives, with students providing live broadcasts during the morning and late afternoon. The WICB Sports department is responsible for broadcasting at nearly all major sporting events involving the Ithaca College Bombers, and live sportscasts 5 days a week.  The WICB News department is responsible for live newscasts 5 days a week, as well as producing the weekly news show Ithaca Now. It also produces a weekday news podcast called The Latest.

Another Sound Is Dying is the third studio album by Dub Trio. It was released on Ipecac Recordings on January 29, 2008. "No Flag" features Mike Patton on vocals.

Critical reception

At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 70, based on 5 reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews".

Phil Freeman of AllMusic described the album as "a solid introduction to Dub Trio for newcomers" and "a welcome continuation of their journey into the space between metal and dub for existing fans." Chris Catania of PopMatters said, "The way Dub Trio utilize dub as a starting point and a foundation is alluring by itself, but, again, the avenues they explore and how they methodically incorporate trance-inducing melodies makes this a prime blueprint for anyone who wants to attempt creating a new sound."

The company incorporated on June 25, 1883, to consolidate the Toledo & Michigan, an Ohio company, and the Toledo & Milwaukee. The company filed articles on October 9, 1883 and began operations November 29. Beset by financial difficulties, the company went into receivership almost immediately; the Cincinnati, Jackson & Mackinaw (CJ&MK) bought the company on March 25, 1887.

Discussing the liabilities assumed by the CJ&MK in acquiring the M&O and other companies, Michigan's railroad commissioner wrote that:
"...a sum so largely in excess of the real value of the property as to suggest unfavorable comment upon the policy of loading down a new enterprise with liabilities that cannot fail to seriously impair the financial standing of the corporation."

Michigan operations
From the Toledo & Milwaukee the M&O inherited  of track in revenue service between Allegan and Montieth, where the tracks crossed those of the Grand Rapids & Indiana, and a completed-but-not-operational stretch  in length east from Montieth through Battle Creek and Marshall to Dundee, in Monroe County. The M&O promptly opened this new section opened on November 29, 1883. The Toledo & Milwaukee had also leased the tracks of the Toledo, Ann Arbor & Grand Trunk, which ran south from Dundee to Toledo, Ohio, the company no longer having the funds to complete its own line.

The M&O continued this leasing arrangement; in 1884, when the TAA&GT merged into the Toledo, Ann Arbor & North Michigan, the M&O continued to lease the Dundee–Toledo line from the new company, although the last two miles from Manhattan Junction to Toledo proper were leased from a new concern, the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railroad.

"Esperanza" (English: "Hope") is a song by Spanish singer Enrique Iglesias for his third studio album Cosas del Amor (1998). It was co-written by Igleias and Chein García-Alonso with Rafael Pérez-Botija handling its production. A power ballad, it is a confessional song of love and forgiveness. Upon "Esperanza"'s release, one reviewer lauded Iglesias's vocals and the song's arrangements while another found it too similar to his debut single "Si Tú Te Vas". Filmed in Malibu, California, the accompanying music video for "Esperanza" was directed by Emmanuel Lubezki, which won Video of the Year at the 11th Annual Lo Nuestro Awards in 1999. "Esperanza" also won "Song of the Year" and an American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) Latin Award in the same year. Commercially, it reached number one in Guatemala, Nicaragua, and Panama as well as the Billboard Hot Latin Songs and Latin Pop Airplay charts in the United States, while becoming top-five hit in Colombia, Costa Rica, Honduras and El Salvador.

Background and composition
On 30 July 1998, Iglesias announced that he was recording his third studio album, Cosas del Amor, at Ocean Way Recording in Los Angeles, California. It was produced by Spanish producer Rafael Pérez-Botija, who had previously worked with Iglesias on his past records. Cosas del Amor, which was released on 22 September 1998, features a collection of power ballads. One of the ballads from the album, "Esperanza", was written by Iglesias and Chein Alonso Garcia and is a "confessional song of forgiveness and love". The song was later included on Iglesias's compilation albums The Best Hits (1999) and the deluxe edition of Enrique Iglesias: 95/08 Éxitos (2008).

Promotion and reception
"Esperanza" was released as the lead single from the album on 7 September 1998 by Fonovisa Records. Its music video was filmed in Malibu, California and directed by Emmanuel Lubezki. The video features Argentine model Inés Rivero, whom Iglesias is attempting to resuscitate after drowning while also reminiscing about the past with her. It won Video of the Year at the 11th Annual Lo Nuestro Awards in 1999. Joey Guerra of the Houston Chronicle praised Iglesias's "nuanced vocal" style and the song's "winsome" arrangement; however, Russell McCrory from The Monitor was less favorable towards the track, where he felt that "Esperanza" was too similar to his 1995 debut single "Si Tú Te Vas". The single received the Song of the Year award at the inaugural Ritmo Music Awards in 1999, and was recognized as one of the best-performing songs of the year on the Pop/Ballad field at the ASCAP Latin Awards. "Esperanza" was included on the set list of Iglesias's second world tour—the Cosas del Amor Tour, where he embarked on the same year.

Commercially in Latin America, it reached number one in Guatemala, Nicaragua, and Panama, and was  a top-five hit in Colombia, Costa Rica, El Salvador, and Honduras. In the US, "Esperanza" debuted at number four on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart on the week of 26 September 1998. It reached the number one position on the chart in the week of 24 October 1998 following the chart's two week hiatus due to damage to the Broadcast Data Systems in Puerto Rico caused by Hurricane Georges. It spent four consecutive weeks in this position before being replaced by Shakira's song "Ciega, Sordomuda". The track additionally peaked atop the Latin Pop Airplay chart for four consecutive weeks.

WNYY (1470 AM) is a radio station broadcasting an oldies format. Licensed to Ithaca, New York, United States, the station serves the Ithaca area.  The station is owned by Saga Communications, and operates as part of its Cayuga Radio Group.

History
WNYY, most commonly known as "Pure Oldies 94.1" was owned by a local company as part of an AM/FM combo with WQNY 103.7 FM, then under the call letters of WTKO and featuring an oldies format. The AM/FM combo was one of two in the Ithaca market - the other being what is now co-owned WYXL 97.3 FM and WHCU 870 AM. The two combos were combined under the Eagle Broadcasting Company, before Saga bought out the company and its four stations in 2005.

The WNYY call letters were put in place after Saga's purchase in 2005, and it was initially launched as a sports station. WNYY also carried programming from the now-defunct Air America network, which filed for bankruptcy in January 2010. After its iteration as a sports station, WNYY ran an all-syndicated lineup consisting mostly of progressive hosts, with some exceptions (The Dave Ramsey Show being the most prominent, airing in afternoon drive). From March 2010 through January 2017, WNYY was one of several progressive talk stations in Saga Communications' portfolio, others including WHMP and its two simulcast partners in western Massachusetts, and WKVT in southeastern Vermont.

WNYY’s return to the FM airwaves coincided with the launch of sister station WQNY’s Progressive Talk on its HD2 channel. WNYY had been on the W277BS 103.3 FM translator of WYXL before Saga began using the frequency for WYXL's HD2 channel, Hits 103.3. The use of WQNY-HD2 overcame a tight night pattern on the 1470 AM frequency.

In January 2017, Saga announced that it would change WNYY's format back to oldies on February 1. The company stated that many of the programs carried by the station were no longer in syndication, rendering the station unable to provide a full schedule of progressive talk programming; in an unusual move, Saga Communications directed listeners to community radio station WRFI and to the Internet, where many of the shows that are no longer syndicated now air.

On February 1, 2017, WNYY changed their format from progressive talk to oldies, branded as "Pure Oldies 94.1" (simulcast on FM translator W231DK 94.1 FM Ithaca).

Vitória–Eurico de Aguiar Salles International Airport , formerly called Goiabeiras Airport after the neighborhood where it is located, is the airport serving Vitória, Brazil. Since 9 May 2006, it is named after Eurico de Aguiar Salles (1910–1959) a local politician and law professor.

It is operated by Zurich Airport Brasil.

History
The airport was built in the 1930s and in 1943 a concrete runway and a passenger terminal were built.

In 2005 renovation works started at the airport. Projects included a passenger terminal located on a second runway and a control tower. The old terminal was converted into an international cargo terminal. The construction costed initially BRL 300 million, was paralyzed several times in 2006 and 2007 leaving construction virtually abandoned and delayed by overpricing and diversion of funds. It was finished in April 2018.

Between 1975 and 2019 it was managed by Infraero. On March 15, 2019 Flughafen Zürich AG won a 30-year concession to operate the airport.

WWLE (1170 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a Regional Mexican format. Licensed to Cornwall, New York, United States, the station serves the Newburgh-Middletown area.

1170 AM is a United States clear-channel frequency, on which WWVA and KTSB share Class A status. WWLE must leave the air during the sunset to sunrise period to protect the nighttime skywave signals of the Class A stations.

History
WWLE has existed in two incarnations. The original WWLE came to air on November 22, 1969, as the dream of the late ABC radio newscaster William L. Edmonds; the call letters are his initials. Edmonds' widow Adeline served as WWLE's president, while their son Bill ran the news department. The station aired a big band/standards format with country programs on the weekends, broadcasting from the village of Cornwall-on-Hudson. After several years, the station faced financial troubles and was eventually bought out by investors including Angelo Martinelli, the mayor of Yonkers, New York. By 1981, the station had changed its call letters to WCRR and eventually went dark for several years.

The old WWLE returned as WNBW on February 19, 1990, changing later in the year to WARW, then finally bringing back the old WWLE call letters in 1996. By the late 1990s, the station had moved out of the village of Cornwall to a facility on New York State Route 299 near New Paltz, New York, airing an automated Big Band format. Later, the station was bought by 1170 Broadcast Radio, Inc. and flipped to News Talk Information format, featuring programming from CNN Radio. In 2010, WWLE filed a petition to move to 1150 AM and increase its power (not possible on 1170 because of interference by WWVA in Wheeling, West Virginia); no action has been taken by the FCC.

In 2014, WWLE changed again, this time to a Regional Mexican format under the name El Poder ("The Power")

Effective March 18, 2019, 1170 Broadcast Radio sold the station to WWLE Radio LLC.

Marthe Marie Joséphine Distel (; 18 September 1871, Remiremont — 1 April 1934,
Saint-Leu-la-Forêt) was a French journalist.

Career
Marthe Distel started the culinary magazine La Cuisinière Cordon Bleu. To prompt readership, Distel offered subscribers cooking lessons with professional chefs. The first class was held in January 1895 in the kitchens of the Palais Royal. The classes led to the development of a more formal school, now known as Le Cordon Bleu.

Heritage
On her death in 1934, at age 62, Distel left the school to an orphanage, which struggled to manage it. The school closed during World War II, and was later bought by another French woman, Élisabeth Brassart.

The magazine ceased publication in the 1960s, but the school has evolved from its single location in Paris to more than 27 schools in 17 countries.

WGNY (1220 AM) is a radio station broadcasting an oldies format. Licensed to Newburgh, New York, the station serves the Newburgh-Middletown area and is currently owned by Sunrise Broadcasting Corporation.

Early history

WGNY signed on as the Hudson Valley's first radio station on February 25, 1933, owned by wealthy real estate developer Robert Wilson Goelet. Goelet built his estate, Glenmere mansion, in the town of Chester, New York, in 1911; in 1932, he decided to create a radio station that would broadcast from its grounds. (Goelet wanted the call letters WCNY, for "Chester, New York", but as they were already taken, he settled for WGNY.)

In 1937, WGNY moved its operations to 161 Broadway in Newburgh; the following year, Goelet sold out to Merritt C. Speidel and the WGNY Broadcasting Company. Originally at 100 watts, WGNY upped its power to 250 watts in 1940 (and eventually 10,000 watts in the 1970s). Billing itself as "The Only Radio Station Between Albany and New York City", WGNY would have Orange County, New York, to itself until Middletown's WALL signed on in 1942. (During the 1940s and 50s WGNY would have satellite studios in Middletown and Poughkeepsie.)

In 1952, WGNY switched news affiliations from the United Press to the AP, while Speidel retired and was replaced as president by George W. Bingham. In 1953, a third station in Orange County signed on -- WDLC in Port Jervis, New York—but WGNY's listening dominance in the county was near-total, capturing over half the audience as late as the mid-1950s.

More changes came in 1958, when WGNY Broadcasting sold out to Orange County Broadcasting, Inc., and studios were moved to Little Britain Road in New Windsor, New York, where they remain to this day.

WGNY-FM
In the fall of 1966, FM radio came to Orange County, with WFMN ("FM Newburgh") reaching the air on October 29, followed by Middletown's WALL-FM on November 11. WFMN, owned by brothers Wilbur and Donald Nelson, broadcast at 103.1 MHz and moved into 104 Broadway in Newburgh—just down the street from the old WGNY studios. WFMN and WGNY remained competitors until 1974, when WGNY bought out Stereo Newburgh, Inc. (who had bought WFMN the previous year). WFMN changed its calls to WGNY-FM in 1985, then to WJGK in 2010. Starting in February 2011, a new WGNY-FM in Rosendale, New York, began duplicating WGNY's AM signal on 98.9 MHz; meanwhile, translator W231BP in Chester (WGNY's original location) began carrying WJGK's programming at 94.1 FM.

1960s and onward
In 1968, Hudson Horizons (Kenneth Cowan, president) acquired WGNY; the following year, the station's lock on Orange County was loosened more with the signing-on of WTBQ in Warwick, New York.

In the 1990s, WGNY sought a new transmitter site and a change to 1200 kHz; the FCC turned down the frequency change, and the Town of New Windsor nixed the new site.

21st century and WDLC simulcast
In recent years, WGNY has switched back and forth between oldies and sports. In March 2005, WGNY-AM-FM began a Local Marketing Agreement with Port Jervis' WDLC and WTSX, with the four stations combining air staffs. WGNY began simulcasting a 1955-72 Oldies format with WDLC until January 2007, when WDLC dropped the oldies format in favor of a sports talk format from ESPN Radio. In February 2009, WDLC returned to the WGNY simulcast.

In 2013-14, WGNY saw three format changes in a little over twelve months: first, on April 3, 2013, they switched back to ESPN Radio. A dispute with the all-sports chain led WGNY to switch back to oldies (simulcasting WGNY-FM) on March 17, 2014; less than a month later, on April 16, 2014, WGNY re-joined ESPN.

In February 2017, WGNY switched to a Country format simulcasting sister station 103.1 WJGK HD-2 as "Today's Best Country Fox Country 1220 and Fox Country 103.1 HD2.
Sometime in August 2017, WGNY switched back to an Oldies format, simulcasting sister station 98.9 WGNY-FM, as "Oldies 98.9/105.3/1220".

From the Soul of Man is the second studio album by American singer Kenny Lattimore. It was released by Columbia Records on September 8, 1998 in the United States.

Critical reception

Critics uniformly lauded this album as a great leap from his debut on the scene two years prior to this largely mature effort. The album opens with the first single "Days Like This", an introspective midtempo R&B track with avant garde electronic inflections. "Days", along with 7 other tracks on the album were co-written by Lattimore. A highlight is Lattimore's faithful and yet individual cover of Donny Hathaway's "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know", first heard on Hathaway's landmark Extension of a Man album. Lattimore also reimagines The Beatles' "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" as a soulful ballad that closes with a hypnotically layered arrangement of background vocals. "Who knew that 'While My Guitar Gently Weeps' could be so sexy?" remarks Michael Gallucci.

Chart performance
In the United States, the album peaked at number 71 on the Billboard 200. On Billboard'''s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, it reached number 15. The lead single "Days Like This" peaked at number 84 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart. Re-released with soulful "Nuyorican soul" house mixes, produced by Masters at Work, the track climbed to number 26 on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. Second single "If I Lose My Woman" fared better on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart, peaking at number 15. It also topped the Billboard Bubbling Under R&B/Hip-Hop Singles in early 1999 within 3 weeks of its appearance on the chart.

Sales of the album took off again in 2020 after The Last Dance showed Michael Jordan discussing with reporters an advance copy of what Lattimore later confirmed was From the Soul of Man''.
