U.S. Route 29 (US 29) is a United States highway that runs for  from the South Carolina state line, near Blacksburg, to the commonwealth of Virginia, near Danville.  It is signed with north–south cardinal directions, but is actually a north-east and south-west diagonal highway throughout the state. The route serves the North Carolina Piedmont, including the cities of Charlotte, Salisbury, High Point, and Greensboro. From Salisbury to Greensboro, US 29 spends roughly a third of its length in the state being concurrent with US 70.

Route description
US 29 starts in Grover as a two lane rural road where it intersects with NC 226 shortly after. It then turns into a four lane boulevard as it heads to Kings Mountain briefly overlapping with NC 216 as it merges into Interstate 85 sharing a concurrency with the interstate. It then exits Interstate 85 at Exit 10A running together with US 74. US 29/74 then overlaps with NC 274 for two miles as the three routes head towards Gastonia. In downtown Gastonia, US 29/74/NC 274 intersects with US 321 with NC 274 splitting off on South Broad Street. US 29/74 then meets NC 279 before going into Lowell, McAdenville, and Belmont where US 29/74 meets NC 7 and then Interstate 485 before going to Charlotte. US 29/74 offers access to Charlotte Douglas International Airport before intersecting with Billy Graham Parkway. Here, US 29/74 is named Wilkinson Blvd. At Morehead Street, US 29 splits from US 74 where US 29 briefly overlaps with NC 27 and then intersects Interstate 77. Afterwards, US 29 splits from NC 27 where it meets NC 49 as the two routes go around the Bank of America stadium, and go along Graham Street through Uptown Charlotte.

Afterwards, US 29/NC 49 turns into a boulevard going east on Dalton Avenue, and then north on Tryon Street. Eventually, US 29/NC 49 intersects Old Concord Road where the Lynx Blue Line runs between the northbound and southbound lanes. At University City Boluevard, NC 49 splits from US 29 with NC 49 going around the southern part of the University of North Carolina at Charlotte campus, and US 29 going around the west. Here, the Lynx Blue Line goes under the northbound lanes of US 29 to offer access to UNC Charlotte while US 29 continues as a boulevard towards Concord. Before doing so, it intersects with Interstate 485 once again. Before heading towards Concord, US 29 offers access to the Charlotte Motor Speedway before meeting at an interchange with George Liles Parkway. It then briefly overlaps with US 601 and NC 73 in western Concord before US 601 splits to run concurrently with I-85 and NC 73 splitting to head towards downtown Concord. From here, US 29 runs north through Kannapolis. US 29 then goes through Landis and China Grove briefly overlapping with NC 152 east of China Grove.

US 29 then heads towards Salisbury where, west of downtown Salisbury, it beings to run concurrently with US 70 serving as Salisbury's Main Street. After going through downtown Salisbury, US 29/70 offers access to both Spencer and East Spencer before crossing over the Yadkin River. Afterwards, US 29/70 then merges into I-85/US 52 as the four highways all run together for roughly two miles. At exit 87, US 29/52/70 splits from I-85 with and briefly joins I-285 and I-85 Business. West of Lexington, US 52 and I-285 split away from US 29/70/I-85 Business where US 29/70/I-85 Business goes around the northern edge of Lexington where the three routes briefly overlap with US 64 before heading towards Thomasville.

Exiting Thomasville, US 29/70/I-85 Business then goes south of High Point and north of Trinity and Archdale before intersecting I-74 southeast of High Point. Following this, US 29/70/I-85 Business once again runs together with I-85 proper before splitting at the interchange with I-73/US 421. US 29/70/I-85 Business then merges into I-40 running together with US 220 south of Greensboro. The now five, simultaneously running highways (US 29, US 70, US 220, I-40, and I-85 Business) go around southern Greensboro before US 29/70/220 splits from I-40/I-85 Business going north around eastern Greensboro as a controlled access highway named O. Henry Blvd. As US 29/70/220 intersects Wendover Avenue, US 70 and US 220 split from US 29 with US 70 going east along Wendover Ave, and US 220 going west.

US 29, now all alone, goes through the northeastern suburbs of Greensboro where it intersects with I-785, and will run concurrently with I-785 past the Virginia line once modifications to the existing US 29 are completed. After meeting I-785, US 29 is largely rural with Reidsville being the last town served along the route. Here in Reidsville, US 29 intersects with US 29 Business with the latter acting as beltline stretching around western Reidsville. Afterwards, US 29 heads northeast to Virginia just southwest of Danville.

History
Established in 1927, it ran from the South Carolina state line to US 74 in Kings Mountain, with a concurrency with NC 205.  In 1929, NC 205 was removed.

US 29's first extension was in 1932, following US 74/NC 20 east into Charlotte; it then replaced US 170 from Charlotte to the Virginia state line.  In 1937, it replaced a stretch of NC 7 going between Kings Mountain and Gastonia; the old route briefly became alternates for both U.S. Routes before becoming NC 161 and NC 274.

In 1938, US 29 was moved onto a new bypass around Kannapolis-China Grove, leaving US 29A on the old route. In 1948, the routes were switched.  In 1952, US 29 was moved onto new bypasses around Lexington and Thomasville, leaving behind US 29A in both cities.  In 1957, US 29 was moved onto its modern route from Thomasville to Jamestown, old route became part of NC 62 and US 70A.

In 1957 or 1958, US 29 was moved onto new bypass west of Reidsville, leaving US 29A (later US 29 Business) through Reidsville.  Also around same time, US 29 was moved onto new bypass east of Kings Mountain, extending NC 216 over its old route; then in Charlotte, it moved onto I-85 between Little Rock Road (exit 32) and the University City area (exit 42), old route through Charlotte as US 29 Business.  In 1961 or 1962, US 29 was moved back further to NC 273 going onto I-85; but surprisingly, in 1963, US 29 was placed back on its original route through Charlotte again.  Similar action also in Salisbury, where in 1960 US 29 was moved onto I-85, then in 1964 or 1965 it was moved back through town.

In 1973, US 29 was placed on a new freeway bypass east of Reidsville; its old bypass route was reverted to US 29 Business, while the old US 29 Business through Reidsville was removed.  Between 1980 and 1982, the freeway from Reidsville was extended into Virginia.

U.S. Route 170

U.S. Route 170 (US 170) was an original US highway, established in 1926.  It began at the intersection of Trade and Tryon Street in Charlotte, traversing northeast, in concurrency with NC 15 to Concord, Kannapolis, and Salisbury.  Northeast of Salisbury, it was overlapped with NC 10 to Lexington, High Point, and Greensboro; via High Point Road to Lee Street, to Fairground Avenue, to Spring Garden Street, to Aycock Street, to West Market Street, to Greene Street, and finally to Summit Avenue, where it began its overlap with NC 70 heading northeast to Browns Summit.  Heading northeast, it went through Reidsville, Ruffin, and finally Pelham before crossing into Virginia towards Danville and eventually Lynchburg.  In 1932, US 29 joined in concurrency with US 170. Later on, the US 170 designation was removed, leaving US 29 on the route.

Future

The freeway stretch of US 29 traveling southwest from Greensboro, to Lexington, North Carolina is currently also signed as Interstate 85 Business and US 70. On October 5, 2019, NCDOT submitted an application to AASHTO, and was granted approval, for the removal of the I-85 Business designation from the freeway, and the rerouting of US 70 between Greensboro and Thomasville leaving US 29 on the route. This plan, according to the state, will simplify overhead signage on the freeway, and eliminate route redundancies.

U.S. Route 29 (US 29) is a  north–south United States highway that travels from the Savannah River to Blacksburg, entirely in Upstate South Carolina.

Route description
US 29 enters South Carolina crossing the Savannah River, downstream from Hartwell Dam, and proceeds to travel along the forested eastern edge of Lake Hartwell for , where it meets up with Old US 29.  From there, it goes on a northeasterly direction towards Anderson.   outside Anderson, US 29 Business takes a left turn and more direct route into the downtown area; while mainline US 29 continues east, with most signage signed "TRUCK" instead of the more usual "BY-PASS" (state maps confirm it is the mainline route).  At SC 81, US 29 takes a left turn and follows briefly before taking a right turn at Shockley Ferry Road.  Crossing SC 28 Business, the road widens to an undivided four-lane, continuing until reaching River Street (US 76/US 178); where US 29 makes another right turn and then soon left again.  US 29 meets back with US 29 Business at Williamston Road.  Continuing northeast for another , US 29 makes a junction with US 29/SC 20 Connector to Williamston; the highway briefly divides at junction.  With another , US 29 merges with northbound Interstate 85 (exit 34, northbound exit and southbound entrance only).

After traveling in concurrency with Interstate 85, US 29 switches onto Interstate 185 at exit 42 (exit 14B on Interstate 185).  After , Interstate 185 ends at Henrydale Avenue; US 29 continues along Mills Avenue, followed by Church Street (staying straight), through downtown Greenville.  At North Street and Academy Street (US 123), travelers can connect to Interstate 385; between the two streets is the Bon Secours Wellness Arena.  Church street eventually ends onto Wade Hampton Boulevard, which is a divided six-lane highway from Greenville to Greer.

Once after passing through Greer, the highway shrinks to a divided four-lane highway, continuing through Lyman and Wellford.  After passing Interstate 85 (exit 66) and Interstate 26 (exit 21), US 29 enters Spartanburg and through one of the busiest commercial areas in the city, centered at Westgate Mall (the highway is widen to six-lanes throughout the commercial area).  As US 29 enters the city center area, it takes a left onto Saint John Street, then proceeds to parallel Main Street before rejoining  later.  At Pine Street (US 176/SC 9), travelers can connect to Interstate 585.  US 29 continues in a northeasterly direction into Cowpens, where the highway reduces down to a two-lane through town.

After passing through Cowpens, the road widens again to an undivided 4-lane for  before entering into Gaffney.  Continuing as a two-lane road through both Gaffney and Blacksburg, it crosses one last time with Interstate 85 (exit 106), before entering North Carolina.

History
From its inception until 1959, US 29 was the main thoroughfare in Upstate South Carolina and connecting regionally with Atlanta and Charlotte.  Though still important in the upstate, it now takes a traveler on a more indirect route compared to Interstate 85.

Established in 1927 as an original U.S. Route, it generally traversed the same today as it then when created; from Georgia to North Carolina, via Anderson, Greenville, Greer, Spartanburg, Gaffney, and Blacksburg.  The entire route was in concurrency with SC 8.

In 1928, SC 8 was rerouted completely off US 29.  In 1935, US 29 was rerouted onto new alignment between Anderson and Greenville.  The old routing using Greenville Road onto Old Anderson Road, then east on Pendleton Road and finally Main Street was renumbered as SC 81.  The new routing turns at Williamson Road, to Williamston, Pelzer, and Piedmont, before entering Greenville on Grove Road, Allen Street, Pendleton Street, and finally Main Street.  The new alignment replaced SC 248 and part of SC 20.

In 1938, US 29 was rerouted from Greenville northward.  From using Main Street, to Buncombe Road, to Rutherford Avenue, and to Camp Road into Greer.  The new routing follows Main Street to Stone Avenue and finally to Wade Hampton Boulevard.

Between 1943-1946, US 29 was moved onto new road bypassing Greer and Duncan.  In 1947, US 29 was given a southeastern bypass of Anderson, creating a business loop through downtown.  In 1948, US 29 was rerouted onto Grove Road and Augusta Road, leaving Allen Street and Green Street, in Greenville.

By 1955, US 29 was rerouted onto a new Super two highway north of Spartanburg, Cowpens, Gaffney, and Blacksburg; the old route became US 29 Alternate. In 1957 or 1958, US 29 was rerouted onto a new Super two highway, bypassing Williamston, Pelzer, and Piedmont; the old alignment later became connector route for US 29/SC 20.  It then went onto new road connecting with US 25 and SC 291.  In concurrency with SC 291, it reaches Wade Hampton Boulevard; leaving behind a business loop through downtown Greenville.  In 1959, Interstate 85 was assigned from Spartanburg to North Carolina, in concurrency with US 29, once the highway was expanded into four-lanes.

In 1962, US 29 was removed from Interstate 85 from Spartanburg to North Carolina and was moved back on its original routing, replacing US 29 Alternate.  In the Greenville area, US 29 was rerouted back through Greenville along Interstate 185, which connected directly via Church Street, to Wade Hampton Boulevard.  US 29 Business in Greenville was decommissioned as a result.  The old alignment to SC 291 became part of Interstate 85.  Finally, at the South Carolina-Georgia state line, US 29 was rerouted south from SC 412 to avoid the new Lake Hartwell.  Most of old US 29 is underwater, with parts of it above surface used for marina purposes.

In 1974, US 29 was rerouted onto Saint Johns Avenue from Main Street, in Spartanburg.

St John the Evangelist's Church stands to the west of the village of Norley, Cheshire, England. The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II* listed building. It is an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Chester, the archdeaconry of Chester and the deanery of Frodsham. Its benefice is combined with those of Christ Church, Crowton, and St John the Evangelist, Kingsley.

History

The first church to be erected on the site was a chapel of ease erected in 1833 and consecrated on 24 February 1835. The present church was built in 1878–79 and designed by J. L. Pearson. The land for the original church had been given by Samuel Woodhouse of Norley Hall. The new church cost £3,500 ().

Architecture

Exterior
The church is built in tooled ashlar red sandstone with a red tile roof. Its style is that of the later 13th century. Its plan consists of a four-bay nave, a north aisle, a two-bay chancel and a vestry, a central tower, a north transept and a south porch which is approached by 11 steps. The nave and the tower have two-light windows. Above the tower window is a clock face and above this is a pair of two-light louvred bell openings. At the top of the tower is a plain parapet. The chancel windows are lancets and at the east end are three tall windows. The window in the north wall of the transept is more ornate than that in the south wall of the tower.

Interior
In the chancel is a sedilia. The reredos of 1930, the altar of 1937, and screens of 1919 and 1921 were designed by F. H. Crossley. Most of the stained glass was made in the early and mid 20th century by William Morris of Westminster. The west window of the north aisle is dated 1950, and is by Trena Cox. In the transept is a Willis organ, which was restored in 1985 by David Wells. The font is square and probably came from the older church.

External features

In the churchyard is a memorial to the Woodhouse family with an earliest date of 1840. It is constructed in ashlar limestone on a red sandstone base and includes marble plaques. It is a large monument standing about three metres high. On its top is a sarcophagus on claw feet. It is listed at Grade II. The churchyard also contains three war graves, consisting of two soldiers of World War I (at the northeast corner of the church), and one of World War II (west of the church).

U.S. Route 29 (US 29) in the state of Georgia, is a north–south United States Numbered Highway that runs southwest to northeast from West Point at the Alabama state line to the South Carolina state line, near Lake Hartwell. From West Point to downtown Atlanta, the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) has cosigned US 29 with State Route 14 (SR 14). North of downtown Atlanta, the route runs along SR 8 to Dacula and again from west of Statham to the South Carolina state line.

Concurrencies of US 29 with US routes in Georgia include US 27 in LaGrange as well as US 27 ALT from Moreland to Newnan. Others include US 19/US 41 from Castleberry Hill to the vicinity of Georgia Tech in Atlanta, US 78 from Georgia Tech to Scottdale, and again from near Bogart to Athens, US 278 from Georgia Tech to Druid Hills, US 23 from east Atlanta, to Decatur, and US 129/US 441 in the vicinity of Athens.

Route description

the following portions of US 29 in Georgia are part of the National Highway System, a system of routes determined to be the most important for the nation's economy, mobility, and defense:
The concurrency with US 27/SR 1 in LaGrange
From I-85 just south of East Newnan to SR 34 in Newnan
From SR 74 in Fairburn to US 29 Alt./SR 14 Alt./SR 14 Conn. in Red Oak
From I-20 in Atlanta to the intersection with Jimmy Carter Boulevard and Mountain Industrial Boulevard in Tucker
From US 29 Bus./SR 8/SR 316 just west of Dacula to SR 72 in Athens

History
Former sections of the road have included local streets named "Old Highway 29" in various locations as well as Broad Street (GA 14 Connector) in LaGrange and U.S. Route 29 Business between Dacula and west of Statham. Other former segments include Old West Point Road south of LaGrange, Wynne-Russell Drive in Lilburn, Old Athens Road in Lawrenceville, Sam Groves Street in Danielsville, Old Royston Road in Bluestone, and Franklin Springs Circle in Royston.

Parts of US 29 to the southwest of Atlanta has been named Roosevelt Highway, since Franklin D. Roosevelt made his final journey northward from Warm Springs along this stretch of highway. Large crowds gathered along US 29 on this day in April 1945 to pay their final respects to the deceased President. Unfortunately for those who waited along the highway they missed seeing the president's body being transported back to Washington on a train that ran on nearby tracks.

Échiré () is a commune in the Deux-Sèvres department in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region in western France.

History
Knowledge of Echiré has been enhanced by recent archeological investigations.   The 'Les Loups' (Literally 'The Wolves') site identified by Maurice Marsac using aerial photography comprises a late Neolithic defensive site protected by two ditches adapted from a dried up valley and from the course of the River Sèvre Niortaise.   The lesser of the two ditches, which surrounds the smaller portion of the fort, has yielded pottery fragments that indicate connections with the more extensive archaeological site of Kroh Kollé at Saint-Pierre-Quiberon to the north.  Elsewhere the tomb of a young woman with a baby provides evidence of a double perinatal death.

Other archaeological sites have been identified by Marsac, including the remains of a Gallic farm.

In the centre of the little town, near to the church, survive the remains of a Gallo-Roman temple, rediscovered at the beginning of the twentieth century.

Economy
The town's economy is based on the local dairy which produces the well-regarded Échiré brand of butter.  Other residents commute to Niort where the insurance industry is a significant source of employment.

Main sights
Échiré is home to three castles classified as historic monuments (in French "monuments historiques"): Coudray-Salbart, a middle-age fortress dating back to the 13th century, La Taillée, built in the 17th century, and Mursay, a former residence of Agrippa d'Aubigné. The church of Notre-Dame dates back from the end of the 11th century.

The river Sèvre Niortaise winds in the commune territory for 18 km, offering opportunities for walks, picnics and angling. The famous GR 36 walking route crosses Échiré, following the river banks.

Ensigné () is a commune in the Deux-Sèvres department in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region in western France.

Geography
The surrounding countryside is densely wooded.   The village is close to the forest of Ensigné and of Aulnay.

The kindergarten and primary school have been merged with those of Asnières-en-Poitou and Paizay-le-Chapt, none of the three individual villages having a population above 300 by the start of the twenty-first century.

History
The history of the village is closely linked to that of the Knights Templar.   Ensigné contains a  Templar command post comprising fortifications, a chapel and a castle.  Today the site is privately owned: the castle itself is in a ruined condition, but two separate properties have been created from the part including the former chapel.

The Woodward Avenue Presbyterian Church is a church located at 8501 Woodward Avenue in Detroit, Michigan. Built in 1911 in the Gothic Revival style, the architect was Sidney Badgley. It was used for some time as the Abyssinia Church of God in Christ. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

History
By 1908, the Presbyterians in Detroit recognized the need for a church to serve congregants located in what was then the "north" Woodward area. Meetings were held and the congregation was organized by the presbytery on March 17, 1908. The church had 163 members.

Rev. Sherman L. Divine was installed as the congregation's first minister, and he embarked on an ambitious building project, envisioning a sanctuary that would cost about $100,000 ($ in  dollars ). The church enlisted new members and new funding. Tracy and Katherine McGregor donated a lot along Woodward, and the cornerstone for the church was laid on January 1, 1910. Construction began, based on a design by Sidney Rose Badgley. The church was dedicated on June 23 of the next year.

Membership surpassed 2200 by 1921. However, by the 1950s, many members were leaving Detroit for the northern suburbs. Woodward Avenue Presbyterian Church began to struggle, with fewer than 1000 members in 1961 and only 404 in 1971. In 1981, Woodward Avenue Presbyterian merged with Covenant Church. The combined churches still had fewer than 500 members, and by 1991 there were only 210. In 1993, the congregation split from the Presbyterian church, eventually becoming the Abyssinia Interdenominational Church. The church closed on the death of the pastor in 2005. Woodward Avenue Presbyterian was abandoned, and has fallen into disrepair.

Owners changed hands several times but none had the finances to keep up such a large property.  The building then was bought at a foreclosure sale by an information technology company that had also purchased an adjacent building.  In a 2018 television interview the company's executive outlined plans to restore the building for the community.  As of January 2019 the company had replaced the roof and were in the process of interior cleanup and structural stabilization.  However in July the technology company was debared from doing business with the city until 2026 after bribing a city official for business contracts. As of 2020 there was no update on any further repairs.

Architecture
Woodward Avenue Presbyterian is an English Gothic-style church, faced with rough rock and trimmed with a contrasting limestone, and measuring 184 feet long by 104 feet wide. The Woodward Avenue façade boasts a massive carved-stone entrance with a traceried stained glass window set above; two square towers flank the center entrance. Along the side, gabled transepts contain full-height traceried windows. A two-story educational wing, built at the same time as the main church building, abuts the rear. A lantern dome, raised above the roofline, lights the auditorium.

Coberley is a village and civil parish in the Cotswold District of Gloucestershire in England,  south of Cheltenham. It lies at the confluence of several streams (Seven Springs) that form the River Churn, a tributary of the River Thames. The medieval village was closer to the main road, near a spring to the east of Coberley Court. The sites of the medieval and modern villages of Upper Coberley are a short distance to the east.

History
The parish has two long barrows: one about  west of the parish church and the other about  west-north-west of the church. A skeleton was discovered in the latter before 1779.

The valley north of Coberley is the site of a Roman villa complex. It has been the source of numerous archaeological finds, including coins, tiles, pottery and mosaics. The site was excavated by Channel 4's Time Team in 2007 for an episode that was broadcast on 3 February 2008.

The Church of England parish church of Saint Giles had Norman features until the architect John Middleton rebuilt it in 1869-72. Middleton retained the Decorated Gothic south chapel, built in 1340 as a chantry to Saint Mary. He retained also the Perpendicular Gothic bell tower.

Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn rode to Coberley on 2 August 1535 from Gloucester. Henry went on to hunt at Miserden while Anne returned to Gloucester.

Dowmans Farm house was built in the 17th century. The present rectory was designed by Richard Pace and built in 1826. Its predecessor sheltered the future Charles II of England for the night on 10 September 1651, as he was fleeing from defeat in the Battle of Worcester, disguised as a groom.

The village school was designed by David Brandon and built in 1857. It is now Coberley Church of England Primary School.

Michael Stewart (born May 30, 1972) is a Canadian-Austrian former professional ice hockey defenceman who has become a coach after his playing days. He was drafted in the first round, thirteenth overall, of the 1990 NHL Entry Draft by the New York Rangers, but never played a game in the NHL.

Playing career
Stewart attended Michigan State University for three seasons before signing with the New York Rangers in 1992. He then played for the Ranger's AHLaffiliate Binghamton Rangers for three seasons before being traded to the Hartford Whalers with Glen Featherstone in return for Pat Verbeek. Stewart then played for the Springfield Falcons (AHL) and Detroit Vipers (IHL) before playing with the Canadian National Team in 1996–97. After a 3-year stint with the Manitoba Moose of the IHL, Stewart spent the 2000-01 campaign with the Frankfurt Lions of the German DEL, before moving to Austria for the following season: Stewart played for EC VSV from 2001 to 2010, winning the Austrian championship in 2002 and 2006. He also represented the Austrian national team at the 2005, 2006, and 2007 World Championships. After an 18-year playing career Stewart retired as a member of the EC VSV. He is one of four players in the history of EC VSV hockey to have his jersey number retired.

Coaching career
He started his coaching career as assistant coach to Johan Strömwall at EC VSV. In February 2011, he was promoted to head coach after Strömwall had stepped down.

Stewart moved to coach the Fischtown Pinguins of the German DEL2 in May 2012 and guided the team to the 2013-14 DEL2 championship, while being named DEL2 Coach of the Year. At the 2014 and 2016 Deutschland-Cup, he served as assistant coach of the Canadian national team. On April 30, 2015, he accepted an offer to become the head coach of German DEL side Augsburger Panther.

In the 2018–19 season, he guided Augsburg to a playoff-semifinal appearance, before signing with fellow DEL team Kölner Haie in April 2019. Stewart tenure was brief with Kölner Haie unable to see out the 2019–20 season, as he was replaced by Uwe Krupp on February 24, 2020.

Newton Falls is a hamlet of 400, located within Town of Clifton in Saint Lawrence County, New York,  United States. The hamlet is located within the Adirondack Park. The area is known in part for its ZIP code, which is 13666.

The hamlet was named for James Newton, who built a sawmill in 1894 which became the Newton Falls Paper Mill; it closed in 2000. It was reopened in 2007 as Newton Falls Fine Paper through the efforts of former mill workers and town residents.  The paper mill was again closed as of June 28, 2011.

History
The hamlet was constructed as a mill town; it includes several Sears houses at the top of Plank Hill on the Newton Falls Road (County route 60) near Summit Avenue.  In 1925 there were more than 800 residents.  As late as 1941, there was six day a week New York Central mixed train running on the Carthage and Adirondack to Carthage, where connections could be made to the Utica to Philadelphia St. Lawrence Division; this service ended by 1946.  Freight service continued for a few decades more.  Until 1978 there was a huge iron strip mine, Benson Mines,  and crushing plant at the junction of CR 60 and New York State Route 3 that shipped processed ore via rail; at its peak, it employed 1200 workers.  The 100+ year old Newton Falls Hotel still stands, but is currently closed to the public.

Paper mill
The paper mill was opened by the Newton family in 1894. In 1920, the mill, operated as the Newton Falls Paper Company, was purchased by McGraw-Hill and United Publishers Corporation  to supply paper for the magazines they published.  Each partner held a 50% stake in the mill.

After the 1978 closure of the iron mine, the mill was the hamlet's largest employer.

The mill remained with McGraw-Hill/ABC until it was purchased in 1984 by the Swedish multinational company Stora Kopparbergs Bergslag, Sweden's second-largest forest products company, and renamed Papyrus Newton Falls, Inc., in 1989.  Papyrus was the fine papers division of Stora.  Later that year it was renamed to Stora Papyrus Newton Falls, Inc.  The mill was purchased in 1996 by Appleton Papers Inc., a leading worldwide producer of carbonless paper and the leading U.S. producer of thermal paper.

It closed in 2000 when Appleton decided to consolidate the operation closer to its home in Kimberly, Wisconsin.

New paper mill owners, Dennis L. Bunnell and partners and Scotia Investments out of Canada were secured through heavy community involvement. The mill reopened on September 7, 2007, under the new name of Newton Falls Fine Paper.  The paper mill was permanently closed as of June 28, 2011.

X3: Terran Conflict is a space trading and combat simulator by German developer Egosoft, part of their X series of games. Described as a stand-alone game, based on X3: Reunion, it boasts new plot lines, features and assets. It was first released in October 2008 for the European market and Steam.

Gameplay
X3: Terran Conflict is a single player, first-person space-based simulator where the player can explore and expand in a constantly changing environment. The player can navigate their ship across numerous sectors owned by the various races (Argon, Boron, Split, Paranid, Teladi, Xenon, Kha'ak, Terran, Pirate and Yaki) which are connected through devices termed Jumpgates, allowing for large-scale travel in the game universe. The entire game universe holds thousands of persistent stations and ships, with a varying economy which the player is encouraged to take part in through trading, construction, and in some instances combat. The game is open-ended, and the player is free to explore and perform various tasks at will, unless a mission instructs otherwise. There are several alien races which the player can interact with, through these interactions shaping his relationship with the races, becoming either friend or foe. Some races are presented as a constant threat where friendship is not an option. Each race has a military presence across the universe and skirmishes can break out without the player's involvement.

The player is capable of acquiring many different types of property, such as ships, stations, and factories. Ships can be piloted manually in the first-person by the player, or can be ordered to perform various tasks on their own such as engaging in combat and trading. Ships can also be grouped together to form wings, where they attempt to perform a task assigned by the player together without the player needing to order them individually. The number of assets the player can own is not limited by the game. Types of ships range from small scout ships equipped with light weaponry and shielding to large capital ships with various capabilities, which can be used for offense, factory construction, ware production or other purposes.

Combat can range from dogfights between small ships to large fleet battles involving many ships, small to large alike. There are several classes of weapons available for use, such as beam weapons, energy projectiles, ammo-based projectiles which must be kept stocked with the appropriate ammunition, various types of missiles, as well as mines. Each ship is usually capable of equipping a wide array of weapons, usually limited by the constructing race and ship size.

Several space installations are available to be built by the player. They can include factories, trading stations, stationary weapon platforms, and more. The player can also build a Headquarters, capable of many different tasks ranging from ware storage to ship construction. Factories can be built basically anywhere in a sector, usually to provide income to the player through the sale of the wares it produces, or the production of wares directly for the player's use. Wares can be bought from stations for a certain cost, and be either sold at another station (ideally for a profit) or to be used by the player. Certain wares are required at each type of station to produce the stations product. As an example, crystals are required at Solar Power Plants to produce its product; energy cells. Basic wares such as minerals, food, and energy go through several stages of production at various factories to become more advanced products, such as weapons, satellites, and drones.

Both plot-driven and generic missions are offered and take place in the universe itself, usually with some kind of reward for the player. Local events may alter the player's experience of the mission. The majority of missions are not restrictive, and the player can perform normal activities after the mission has been accepted and may call upon any available property to help with the objective.

As the game progresses, many more features are made available, such as connecting multiple factories to share resources, and training marines to board capital ships.

Plot

Centuries before the events of X3: Terran Conflict, the Terrans built their own jumpgate technology, which accidentally connected to an abandoned network of alien jumpgates. They colonized many uninhabited worlds, using robotic spacecraft called Terraformers to make planets suitable for human life. A software error caused the Terraformers to malfunction and they rampaged across the colonies, re-terraforming planets, killing the inhabitants. During the last stand battle in Earth orbit, the Terraformers are drawn back through the jumpgate, which is self-destructed behind them, cutting Earth from the gate network. A small group of humans who led the Terraformers away continued to become the Argon race and the Terraformers evolved into the Xenon.

The player can play the role of many characters. If an alien is chosen as a character, the player must perform an additional mission to gain access to the Solar System. After the events of X3: Reunion, the Solar System is again connected to the gate network, albeit with different sectors and alien life present. The Terran race are far ahead of the other races technologically, but remain cautious almost to the point of xenophobia. Some Terrans begin to integrate with the commonwealth sectors and a dialogue forms between governments.

During a routine patrol in the Solar System, the player is called to battle in the Neptune system where Xenon are attacking. Using special beacons, they were able to jump deep into the Solar System without use of a jumpgate. During the battle, a small drone steals information from a Terran station and delivers it to an Argon ship in the Pluto sector which uses a jumpdrive to escape the Solar System. The player is tasked with investigating the odd activity of the Xenon who appear to be under influence of the unknown character.

The Xenon and pirate factions are found to be coordinating attacks to raid ships for valuable resources. New ships begin to appear which resemble the original form of Terraformers, attacking ships of the Boron race. The player aids the delivery of Terraformer wreckage to Terran scientists who deduce that these ships are remakes based on commonwealth technology.

Captain Robert Pearle, an undercover Terran operative has valuable information about the origin of these Terraformer ships but he has been discovered and arrested by Argon forces. The player meets up with fellow Terran agent Patricia Heywood to rescue Pearle from an Argon military sector. When Pearle has recovered, he accompanies the player on a mission to Split space where the Terraformers are rumoured to be built. A makeshift mobile factory is discovered and captured by Terran forces and several Split scientists are captured. Under interrogation, one of the scientists mentions the name, Aldrin.

Aldrin was a colony of the Terrans; established before the Terraformer war. The colonists managed to shut down their jumpgate and safeguard their Terraformers from the software error. Aldrin was presumed lost during the war. A scientist from the original Terraformer project, named Martin Winters, had survived the centuries by cryogenically freezing himself in deep space. He rediscovered the existence of Aldrin and set to work to recreate the Terraformer project using the preserved Terraformers in that sector.

The Terrans launch an offensive by reverse engineering a jump beacon to jump a fleet to Aldrin. They find a Terraformer CPU ship under control of Winters, and the Aldrin people suppressed due to Winters influence on the Terraformers. A fleet of Xenon ships joins the battle against the Terrans, defending Winters. A boarding party successfully takes control of the CPU ship and Winters again makes an escape. The player is tasked with escorting Aldrin dignitaries to the Earth Torus, making the Earth sector open to the player. Four additional plot lines are available for the player to pursue. Each is fully voiced and unlocks several unique features and assets.

Development

X3: Terran Conflict is a standalone expansion of X3: Reunion, based in the same universe and using the same engine. X3: Reunion had several popular fan made mods, the most popular of which was named The X-Tended Mod. The Mod was created by a team of artists, musicians and modders and added new content and functionality to the game. XTM received attention from Egosoft who interviewed members of the team and hosted the mod for future downloads. X3: Terran Conflict has several assets used by the XTM mod and several members of the XTM team worked closely with Egosoft to develop the game.

Following the announcement of the game, several screen-shots and videos were made available, showing game-play, new features and content. A teaser trailer for X3: Terran Conflict was made available one month after the game was announced. It featured several new ships, stations, weapon systems and graphical effects. Terran ships, which were first seen in X3: Reunion’s finale, made an appearance in this trailer.

A series of four informative gameplay videos were slowly released throughout the course of development. They were titled after each of the game's main gameplay premises: Trade, Fight, Build and Think. These videos featured a narrative introducing several new features in Terran Conflict. The first video, entitled Build was made available on 30 July 2008. Focusing on station construction and player progression, this video reveals the existence of new stations and ship classes, as well as a new game-play feature to control large numbers of ships. This video confirms that the player headquarters, which was introduced in X3: Reunion version 2.0, is available in X3: Terran Conflict.

A developer blog was made available, documenting several experiences with the game development by several team members. An XTM and X3: Terran Conflict developer Bobby Wilkinson, known in the X3 community as Syklon, was the first to post, detailing some new aspects of the game.

Release
The game went gold on 10 September 2008. The release was then pushed back twice due to production delays, finally falling on 17 October, two weeks after the initial release date of 3 October.

Some copies of Terran Conflict had become available several days before the release date. The Steam version was activated on the 16th, to coincide with the release of the first update. The release version was 1.0.1. Egosoft later confirmed that a shipping error had caused this.

X3: Terran Conflict Version 2.0 was released in North America on 7 April 2009. X³-Gold, the bundle pack containing X3: Terran Conflict 2.0 and X3: Reunion 2.5 was released few days later.

Updates
The first update for X3: Terran Conflict brought many improvements, in addition the first patch for the game on 6 October 2008. A whole new mission to scan for valuable asteroids, enabled mouse control in external view mode, when a target is lost, the nearest enemy is targeted automatically, improved boarding crew functionality, various improvements in the user interface as well as several other improvements and fixes. Version 1.2 was available to Steam users as soon as the game was activated whereas several DVD users played with version 1.0.1 for several days before the update was available. The update added a new mission, improved several features and fixed various issues. Egosoft released a second patch in 4 December, updating the game to version 1.3 and later on 22 December, they released a third patch, updating the game to version 1.4.

An open beta was announced by Egosoft in January 2009, for version 2.0 of Terran Conflict, which was available to forum members who have volunteered to be part of the 'Developer Network'. 2.0 contains 'a whole new mission, new stations and new sectors'. It was made available for download in 3 April. Due to a packing error, 2.0a was made available shortly after initial release to fix a problem, on 10 June and they released the sixth patch, updating the game to version 2.1. Later on 14 October, the seventh patch was released, updating the game to version 2.5. This patch along with numerous fixes and improvements removed the Tagès copy protection.

Egosoft has released an eighth patch on 27 April 2010, updating the game to version 2.6. This patch introduced achievements with the steam client. Before release of 2.6, Valve enabled X3: Terran Conflict DVD users to register their game on steam so they could also use the achievement system. 2.6 also brought numerous fixes and improvements. After this eight patch, Egosoft released the ninth patch in 2 June, updating the game to version 2.7. This was followed on 17 June by the patch version 2.7.1, fixing several minor issues. Egosoft released the tenth patch on 7 October, updating the game to version 3.0. It brought a new plot mission called 'Balance of Power', which was specially developed as a feature for the X Superbox. Also featured in the update was a reward for the Operation Final Fury plot. Update 3.0 also featured the Dead-is-Dead gameplay mode for X3: Terran Conflict which was only available to players who played through the Steam client.

A further update was released on 12 April 2011 for the Windows version and on 24 March for the Mac OS X version.
The last update was released on 19 April adding controller support and providing bugfixes.

Digital rights management
Until the removal of digital rights management in the 2.5 update, X3: Terran Conflict used Tagès as copy prevention. For the DVD versions of the game, the DVD was required to be in the drive to start the game. For online distribution version of the game, including Steam, the number of installations was limited to 5 machines. More activations were available by contacting either Egosoft or Valve.

Reception

On release, X3 Terran Conflict was generally well received by critics, and scored very well on review aggregator websites, including a 73/100 on Metacritic, a 76.63% on GameRankings.

Allgame awarded it 3.5 out of 5 and said "X3: Terran Conflict continues German developer EgoSoft's long-running series of space combat games in which players fight, manage an intergalactic corporation, and explore the X Universe in an attempt to return home to Earth". IGN reviewed it and gave 8 out of 10 possible points.

Gord Goble's review also spoke well of the game's content, simultaneously praising the gameplay and the depiction of the life of an entrepreneurial spaceman. The game received a B− rating from GameShark, with writer Dave VanDyk saying: "Why do we keep coming back to the same game, over and over again? Because it's just that addictive. Broken, but still addictive". Criticism included slow frame rate on high settings, high learning curve, inconvenient controls, lack of multiplayer, bad voice acting, and poor story, although the critics mention that the severity of most of the frustrations were noticeably reduced when compared to previous games of the X series.

Jack Robert Culcay-Keth (born 26 September 1985) is an Ecuadorian-born German professional boxer. As an amateur he represented Germany, fighting at the 2008 Summer Olympics in the welterweight division, and winning a silver medal at the 2008 European Championships and gold at the 2009 World Championships. He held the WBA interim light-middleweight title between 2015 and 2017.

Amateur career
Culcay took up boxing at the behest of his father in 1998, training at TG 75 Darmstadt. He was relatively unknown in 2007, when he was sent to the 2007 World Amateur Boxing Championships. But while all the German top fighters exited early he and middleweight Konstantin Buga were the only ones to reach the quarterfinal and qualify for the 2008 Summer Olympics. At the World Championships, Culcay beat Jetmir Kuci and Zoran Mitrovic then he lost to eventual American winner Demetrius Andrade. At the Olympics he was edged out in his first bout by Kim Jung-Joo. Culcay went on to win a gold medal at the 2009 World Championships, beating Andrey Zamkovoy in the final match.

Professional career
Culcay turned pro in 2009. He is promoted by Sauerland Promotions. He won his first 14 fights, before losing a split decision to Guido Pitto. Culcay avenged the loss with a narrow unanimous decision win in his next fight. Culcay claimed the European light-middleweight title in August 2014, beating Isaac Real on points.

Culcay vs. Weber
In May 2015, Culcay faced Maurice Weber for the WBA interim light-middleweight title. Culcay won the bout and the title by unanimous decision.

Culcay vs. Andrade
After two successful defenses, Culcay reached an agreement to fight former world champion Demetrius Andrade. The winner would be elevated to WBA (Regular) champion. The fight took place in March 2017 at the Friedrich-Ebert-Halle in Ludwigshafen, Germany. Andrade won by split decision. Two judges scored the bout 116–112, 116–112 for Andrade whilst the third had it 115–114 for Culcay. The fight was regarded as close, with as many as five rounds being tossed between the two. Sky Sports pundits had Andrade a clear close winner as he outworked Culcay. In the post fight interview, Andrade credited his performance, "I thought I did everything that I needed to do. I came to Germany and took the title. Culcay came like a champion, but I was the better man. I outlanded him and I came out with the victory."

Culcay vs. Cospolite
On June 12, 2020, Culcay fought Howard Cospolite. While Cospolite performed well in some rounds of the bout, Culcay was overall more efficient and managed to outland Cospolite. This deserved Culcay a unanimous decision win, scoring 118-110, 117-111 and 116-112 on the scorecards.

Culcay vs. Baraou
In his next bout, Culcay faced IBF #7-ranked and WBC #13-ranked Abass Baraou. In a very close fight, Culcay managed to do enough to win the but in the eyes of two of the judges, who scored the fight 116-113 and 115-114 in favor of Culcay while the third judge saw Baraou as the winner 115-113, result in a split-decision win for the former world champion.

Chris Yates is an angler, photographer, broadcaster, tea connoisseur and author born on 19 April 1948. He is a former holder of the record for the heaviest-recorded British carp, a 51.5 lb specimen captured from Redmire pool in 1980. Yates is a former co-editor (with Jon Ward-Allen) of Waterlog magazine, and is a regular contributor to The Idler.

Yates prefers vintage tackle, particularly split-cane rods and centrepin reels, and regards cane as superior to any other rod-making material. His books and films emphasise being close to nature as one of the principal pleasures of fishing.

Yates was one of two central characters in BBC2's 1993 TV series A Passion for Angling, made by Hugh Miles and also featuring Bob James, in which the pair go fishing for carp, salmon and other species across Britain. The series was shown in many countries including Mexico, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Italy, Norway and Japan.

Between 1996 and 2006 Yates presented numerous BBC radio documentaries, all produced by Dan Shepherd of Far Shoreline Productions.

Sainte-Néomaye is a commune in the Deux-Sèvres department in western France. It has 1,324 inhabitants (2018). They are called Neomadiens.

Villages

Sainte-Neomaye is composed of several villages:
 Sainte-Neomaye (le Bourg)
 La Chesnaye
 Aiript
 Les Fontenelles
 La Corbeliere
 Fontramier

Each village has its own identity, and its own particularities.

Traditions
A legend says that Sainte-Neomaye takes his name from a young a very virtuous woman, Neomaye, who was promised, against her will, to a local ugly lord. Rather than accepting the wedding, and in order to keep her virtue, she asked that her foot be changed in a goose leg, and was fulfilled after she dived it in a source. This source is still said to have some magic power.

Sainte-Neomaye has been famous for its Donkey Fair (La Foire aux Mules) since the 18th century. Nowadays, this social event still takes place on the gorgeous central square of the village, but is less about commerce, and more about entertainment.

At this occasion, a race, "Les Chemins du Roy", takes place around the village, through tiny paths used, a long time ago, by donkey merchants.

Geography

Sainte-Neomaye is located in the south-east of Deux-Sèvres. It is 14 km east of Niort, 60 km south-west of Poitiers.
The town is crossed by several rivers. The most important is the Sèvre Niortaise.
Sainte-Néomaye is very accessible, only 2 hours 15 minutes from Paris via TGV, and 2 hours from Bordeaux by car. It is also very close from Poitiers and its malls and universities (60 km), and La Rochelle and the Atlantic Ocean.

Architecture

 The roman church was built in the 12th century and has been recently renovated.
 The castle of Sainte-Neomaye is a manor built in the 19th century.
 The castle of Les Fontenelles is a nice example of romantic architecture from the 19th century.
 Sainte-Neomaye's central square is also well known for the beautiful houses erected on its sides. These very typical Poitevin houses used to be hostels. The square is planted with trees and has large grass areas.
