Draw

First round
The opening round of the 1990 Hopman Cup took place on Boxing Day (26 December) with the day match between eighth seed Italy and Sweden. In the opening match, Italian player Paolo Canè struggled in his first single match against Swedish player Mikael Pernfors as he went down in three sets. Italy though would come back in the remaining two rubbers with Cane and Laura Golarsa winning the mixed doubles in straight sets before Golarsa took out the tie. In the night session, fifth seed Australia defeated Yugoslavia 3–0 to book their spot in the quarter-finals with straight sets victories for Mark Woodforde and Hana Mandlíková.

The second day saw the remaining two matches of the opening round of competition. First was seventh seed, Austria who clean-sweep their tie against New Zealand with Thomas Muster and Barbara Paulus both winning their single matches in straight sets before being pushed to three in the mixed doubles. The final match of the opening round saw the tie between sixth seed, France and the Netherlands lasting seven hours. After Isabelle Demongeot won the women's singles in three singles, the tie headed into a third deciding rubber after the Netherlands pair of Michiel Schapers and Brenda Schultz won the rubber, 6–3, 6–2. After the match, Yannick Noah stated, "I don't know whether I was playing tennis or being a clown." In the deciding rubber, Noah loss the first set, 6–3 and trailed Schapers 5–4 in the second before coming back and winning the remaining two sets in a tiebreaker to book France's spot into the quarters.

Quarter-finals
The quarter-finals began on 28 December 1989, with Australia taking on fourth seed, the Soviet Union in the opening match of the quarters. In what would soon be an easy tie, the Australians only dropped seventeen games throughout the three matches to defeat the Soviets 3–0 with Mandlíková and Woodforde securing straight set victories in all of the matches. Before the match against France, Czeechoslovakia player Miloslav Mečíř was replaced with 63rd ranked player Petr Korda due to torn ligaments in his ankles due to skiing accident, three weeks prior. In the women's singles, the use of the cross-court play put Demongeot on the wrong side of court as she led the French woman to ten double faults in the three set match. Czechoslovakia took out the title in the mixed doubles with Mecir and Helena Suková winning in three sets. Mecir went on to get the sweep for Czechoslovakia, defeating Noah in straight sets.

The brother-sister combination of Arantxa Sánchez Vicario and Emilio Sánchez opened their campaigns with a 2–1 win over the Austrians in their quarter final with the women's match going to three sets while the men's match lasted until 1:30am with Thomas Muster coming out on top in three after conceding the first set in a tiebreaker. Top seeds, United States won their opening tie against Italy 3–0, but the match was notable for John McEnroe clashing with English umpire, Jane Tabor before forfeiting the game for sitting down. He would go on to win the match in three sets.

Semi-finals
The first semi-final was Spain and Czechoslovakia on 30 December 1989. In the opening rubber, Emilio Sánchez got the break in the seventh game of the first set but conceded it in the next game with the set going to Sanchez in a tiebreaker. The second set saw only one break of serve with Korda serve being broken to give Spain the lead. After the Spanish conceded the mixed doubles in straight sets, Arantxa Sánchez had trouble with her strained leg muscle putting her one break down in the second set after losing the first 6–3. But words of encouragement from her brother, saw Arantxa win the next two sets in tiebreakers to book Spain a spot in the final.

The second semi-final was played the following day and saw the United States take on Australia. For Mark Woodforde, he was never in the match with two breaks off the Woodforde serve giving McEnroe the first set with the second set also going to the American as McEnroe gave the United States a lead. Australia got an early break in the mixed doubles with the McEnroe dropping his serve to give Australia a two-game lead. But two consecutive breaks off the Mandlíková serve gave the United States the first set, 6–4. The second set was a tiebreak which Australia came back from 4–0 to level it five-all before the United States took out the tie. The third match wasn't played due to the withdrawal of Mandlíková due to a back complaint.

Final
The final of the 1990 Hopman Cup was played on 1 January 1990 between Spain and the United States. In the opening rubber, McEnroe got the jump over Emilio Sánchez in the first set winning 7–5. Emilio Sánchez came back to level the rubber, winning the second set with the same scoreline with McEnroe being penalized a point penalty which gave Sanchez the break. From there, the Spaniard went on to win the match in three sets, taking out the final set 7–5. After the Americans took out the mixed doubles in straight sets, the tie went to a deciding third with Arantxa Sánchez taking the match and the title with a straight set victory.

"Put Some Drive in Your Country" is a song written and recorded by American country music artist Travis Tritt. It was released in September 1990 as the fourth single from his debut album Country Club.

Content
The song is an up-tempo country rock song in which Tritt proclaims his influences, paying homage to Roy Acuff, George Jones, Hank Williams Jr. and Waylon Jennings as well. In the song, Tritt defines his style singing "I made myself a promise, when I was just a kid: I'd mix Southern rock and country, and that's just what I did".

Critical reception
Stephen Thomas Erlewine by Allmusic said that "[the song], which had a clear rock & roll influence, stalled at #28, since radio programmers were reluctant to feature such blatantly rock-derived music".

Mike Brignardello – bass guitar
Larry Byrom – slide guitar
Dana McVicker – background vocals
Bobby Ogdin – piano, keyboards

View from Within is an album by Muhal Richard Abrams released on the Italian Black Saint label in 1985 and featuring performances of six of Abrams' compositions by an octet.

Reception

The AllMusic review by Ron Wynn states "This '84 date included some intriguing instrumental configurations at times (vibes/flute/percussion, piano/clarinet/bass clarinet) and ranked among his best '80s dates". The Penguin Guide to Jazz awarded the album 3 stars stating "View sounds like a thoroughly personal statement. The multi-instrumental approach lends it a fluid, unsettled quality, but with a huge timbral and textural range".

Regressive Aid was an instrumental band consisting of Simeon Cain (drums), William Tucker (guitar), and Andrew Weiss (bass guitar), managed by Tom Burka. Regressive Aid frequently played at City Gardens, a punk rock club in Trenton, New Jersey.

The band later would become Scornflakes, ultimately the same lineup with the addition of a vocalist (Boy White) and a shift into a sound centered on punk, rather than the jazzy-rock dissonance common in songs by Regressive Aid. Following their termination, all of the members of Regressive Aid would become longtime collaborators in the band Ween.

The members of Regressive Aid were featured as characters in the Matt Howarth comic book The Anti-Chair (1983), the title taken from one of the band's songs. The band also received a plug in Howarth's graphic novel WRAB: Pirate Television. Cain and Weiss also played in Gone, a three pieced punk instrumental rock outfit, as well as the Rollins Band, while Tucker went on to perform with Ministry in 1989. All three members spent time performing with the supergroup, Pigface, as well.

Richard Ernst Artschwager (December 26, 1923 – February 9, 2013) was an American painter, illustrator and sculptor. His work has associations with Pop Art, Conceptual art and Minimalism.

Early life and art
Richard Artschwager was born to European immigrant parents. His father, Ernst Artschwager, was a Protestant botanist born in Prussia, who suffered greatly from tuberculosis. His mother, Eugenia (née Brodsky), an amateur artist and designer who studied at the Corcoran School of Art, was a Jewish Ukrainian. From his mother, Artschwager received his love of art. In 1935, the family moved to Las Cruces, New Mexico, because of his father's deteriorating health. At that time, Artschwager was already showing a talent for drawing.

In 1941, Artschwager entered Cornell University, where he studied chemistry and mathematics. In the fall of 1944, he enlisted in the United States Army and deployed to England and France to fight in World War II. Wounded in the head, he was assigned administrative duty in Frankfurt, where he moved high-level prisoners across the continent. Among them was Nikolaus von Falkenhorst, a German general whom he brought to Oslo to be put on trial by the Norwegians for war crimes. Artschwager was later assigned to an intelligence posting in Vienna. It was there that he met his wife, Elfriede Wejmelka.  The two married in 1946 and returned to the United States in 1947. Artschwager then returned to college and, in February 1948, graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in physics.

Artschwager, however, could not deny his first passion and was encouraged to pursue the arts by his wife.  After he received his diploma, the couple moved to New York City, where he worked as a baby photographer and his wife as a designer.

In 1949, taking advantage of the GI Bill, Artschwager began to study with Amédée Ozenfant in Paris for a year.  Ozenfant was a purist painter. Purism was a Cubist movement in which objects were represented as elementary forms devoid of detail. In the early 1950s, Artschwager abandoned art to work at various jobs, particularly as a turner and a bank employee. In 1953, he began to sell furniture, to ensure regular income, after the birth of his daughter. In 1956, he designed and manufactured simple and modern furniture. His work as a furniture maker left its mark on the art he would later create, as a 1960 commission from the Catholic Church to build portable altars for ships inspired him to start producing small wall objects made of wood and Formica. He was quite successful until 1958, when a fire destroyed his entire studio and all its contents. He then took out a large loan to restore his business.

Work

Return to art

While he was working to support his family, Artschwager continued to think about art. This was during a time when abstract expressionism reigned supreme. He enrolled in a workshop concentrating upon the nude and painted in the abstract easel format, derived from landscape painting. His paintings and drawings from this period were exhibited in two group shows at the Terrain Gallery in 1957 and in October 1959 at the Art Directions Gallery on Madison Avenue, where they were recognized by Donald Judd.

In 1960, Artschwager received a commission from the Catholic Church to construct portable altars for ships.  This led him to consider how to transcend the utilitarianism of tables, chairs, and cabinets, and to seek a mode of artistic expression more consistent with his identity as a craftsman.  During this period, he built a series of small wall objects in wood and Formica, a decorative staple of American kitchens.

In 1961, he took a snapshot of a dustbin. The quadrille photo was implemented and expanded on the canvas. Shortly after seeing a painting by Franz Kline, Artschwager discovered Celotex, a rough-textured fiberboard used on ceilings as acoustic paneling, as a medium to enhance the load gesture. Handle (1962) was the breakthrough piece. A rectangle 4 feet wide and 30 inches high is crafted from a cylinder of honed and polished wood. Although three-dimensional like a sculpture, it hangs on the wall like a painting, only enclosing a view of the wall behind it. That same year, he directed his first combination work, using painting and Celotex sculpture (Portrait I and Portrait II). Also from 1962 Artschwager painted grey acrylic monochrome pictures, basing his images on black-and-white photographs, characteristically of modern buildings as shown in property advertisements, as in Apartment House (1964).

At the end of 1963, Artschwager was very productive.  Chair, a substitute geometric version, is a work very representative of this period, with the red Formica used to mimic the back rest.

In the mid-'60s, Artschwager made small framed objects from Formica.  He sought to incorporate, for the first time, human presence into his sculptures.  His paintings on Celotex during this period show essentially opposite characters. His diptychs show his first attempt to incorporate space in the table.  From 1964, his paintings depict images of the environment, carefully framed with Formica. He met gallerist Leo Castelli and his gallery director Ivan Karp and, who appreciated his work and exhibited it in group exhibitions during the spring and autumn of 1964.

First exhibits
In his work Artschwager explored problems of perception of space via more elaborate construction and decoration.  He also worked with portable altars.  In 1965, the keyboard he had played since his childhood, appeared in his work as an installation format architecture.  Artschwager's efforts to animate the space became increasingly sophisticated.  He exploited the traditional functions and duties of furniture in space.  Throughout the 1960s, he produced many figurative paintings from photographs. He integrated time and movement in his paintings and then used perspective as a convention to create the illusion of space.

[[File: RICHARD ARTSCHWAGER Glass Drop 1969 blown glass 9½ h × 6½ w × 3½ d in (24.1 × 16.5 × 8.9 cm).jpg|thumb|right|200px|Glass Drop, 1969, blown glass, 9½ h × 6½ w × 3½ d in (24.1 × 16.5 × 8.9 cm)]]In 1966, he inaugurated a series using mottled brown Formica, a series that was the subject of his second solo exhibit at Castelli Gallery in late 1967. His original works of furniture were becoming more advanced, especially through his wall pieces. At the same time, he continued to produce many abstract paintings, which used spatial concerns marbled wall furniture. He drew a series of landscapes, which he used to prepare an exhibit commissioned by the University of California, Davis in the spring of 1968. He used them in four basic forms of wood painted nois, as space punctuation: the birth of what the artist called "blps" (a term which has been attributed to dots seen on the screen of a military submarine), which were enlargements of punctuation marks produced in such media as wood, horsehair, and paint that embody the artist's growing taste for linguistic references. The blps were the sole subject of his first solo exhibit in Europe at the Konrad Fischer Gallery in Düsseldorf in 1968.

At the end of 1968, he participated in the annual exhibit of sculpture at the Whitney Museum of American Art. The dispersed installation art work, called 100 Locations, put blps in a hundred different places throughout the museum, which drew attention to the brutalist architecture of Marcel Breuer and the works exhibited. They were used to publicly question the institutional context of art.

In 1969, Artschwager self-published an edition of blown glass sculptures, each unique, that he called Glass Drops. Of making these works, Artschwager said "You take your tube, dip the end of the tube into the glass and you get a gob there - it's still hot, it's still fluid, it's still plasma - and then you start to blow into that and turn it. You turn the pipe and you heat it up a little and you turn it a little more and then it's pretty well set up like a dumpling and then you cut it off and then it's an entity""

In 1970, he participated in the group exhibit Information at The Museum of Modern Art.

Architectural works
In the 1970s, Artschwager began to work on architectural motifs. During the first half of the decade, he employed two processes—fragmentation and expansion.  His theme was domestic interiors. He also included associations of various styles of furniture, gradually moving away from the rudimentary nature of them.

During the years 1971, 1972 and 1973, he explored the theme of very bourgeois interiors, which gave him a sense of stability while working on other paintings during this time of instability.  Artschwager included the dissolution of any visual design on six Celotex paintings in 1972, which depicted the explosive demolition of Traymore Hotel in Atlantic City using photographic reporting.

In 1974, he developed classic architectural motifs, a compromise between the stillness of the interiors and the ongoing disintegration of destruction.  The subject here is light, its ability to guide the eye, the movement's vision and the constant movement and fluid look.  A series of imaginary drawings, representing all six items combined (a door, a window, a table, a basket, mirror, rug), uses inversions of scale, imaginative combinations and locations.  This reflection on the spaces capable of containing all six, which is also a question about the context, causes them to turn again to the blps.

For the next five years, his production was essentially three-dimensional.  He added to his works very large blps.

In the 1980s, there was preponderance of the mirror as object-own furniture to accommodate the reflections, possibly combined with other materials like Celotex, painted wood, and Formica.

In 1984 and 1985, he used painted wood and remained very active.  This design occupies a central place in his creative process.

Late work
From about 1986 to the late 1990s, Artschwager, like many artists, employed studio assistants. The crew could number as few as three or as many as 15, expanding for large scale projects such as the construction of an evergreen tree, for the Chazen Museum of Art in Wisconsin (then known as the Elvehjem Museum of Art). In the 1990s Artschwager made an extensive series of sculptures in the form of shipping crates. Of Artschwager's body of work and recent shows, art critic John Yau notes that the artist has always been "interested in domesticity—tables, chairs—right from the first things ... paintings that were about interiors, houses, but always domesticity was held at a kind of arm's length, and now it seems to me something changed in this most recently completed body of work, which has people in it; it's a different view of domesticity and time."

Artschwager's "Osama" painting of Osama bin Laden was included in his 2003 exhibition at Gagosian Gallery in London, however, it was not reproduced in the catalog because of its “potentially politically incendiary nature.” The painting was reproduced in a French catalog from Domaine de Kerguehennec (2003) opposite a portrait of George W. Bush.

His final gallery exhibition in late 2012 at Gagosian Gallery in Rome featured five laminate sculptures of upright and grand pianos. Utilizing the Formica patterns to make references to early 20th-century artists as diverse as Kazimir Malevich and Henri Matisse, they also made a retrospective nod to his first piano sculpture in 1965.

Exhibitions
Artschwager began to be included in group exhibitions and had his first solo exhibition as a mature artist at Leo Castelli Gallery in January 1965. Between 1986 and 1998 Mary Boone showed his work. He was later represented by Xavier Hufkens and Gagosian Gallery. His first Los Angeles solo exhibition was at Eugenia Butler Gallery in 1970.

In 1979, the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, New York, staged the first major survey of his work that later traveled to Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia; Contemporary Arts Museum, Houston; and La Jolla Museum of Contemporary Art, California, through 1980. The Whitney Museum of American Art produced its second Artschwager retrospective in 1988–89, at the time he had been linked to the new Neo-Geo movement. It later traveled to San Francisco, Los Angeles, Madrid, Paris and Düsseldorf. Artschwager's work has since been the subject of many important surveys, including the Centre Pompidou, Paris (1989); Neues Museum, Nuremberg, Germany (2001, traveled to Serpentine Gallery, London); Museum of Applied Arts, Vienna (2002); Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami (2003); Deutsche Guggenheim, Berlin (2003); Kunstmuseum Winterthur (2003), and Kent Fine Art (2004). The artist also participated in numerous group shows, such as documenta (1968, 1972, 1982, 1987, 1992) and at the Venice Biennale. His second retrospective, “Richard Artschwager!” was organized by Jennifer Gross at the Yale University Art Gallery and opened at the Whitney Museum in 2012, travelling to Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; Haus der Kunst, Munich; and Nouveau Musée National de Monaco until 2014.

Collections
Artschwager's work is included in many museum collections worldwide, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; Art Institute of Chicago; Museum Ludwig, Cologne; Museum für Moderne Kunst, Frankfurt; Lehmbruck Museum, Duisburg; Kunstmuseum Basel; and Fondation Cartier pour l'Art Contemporain, Paris.

Legacy

Artschwager has been credited with influencing 1980s artists like Haim Steinbach, Meyer Vaisman, Ashley Bickerton, and John Armleder. Sculptor Rachel Harrison paid homage to Artschwager in her 2009 installation at the Venice Biennale by re-creating his Table with Pink Tablecloth. Louise Lawler included Artschwager in her piece Birdcalls'' (1972/2008), an audio artwork that transforms the names of famous male artists into a bird song, parroting names such as Beuys, Ruscha and Warhol in a mockery of conditions of privilege and recognition given to male artists at that time.

Personal life
Artschwager lived and worked in New York City with his wife, Ann (Sebring). The couple met in 1991, while Ann was working at the Mary Boone Gallery. He was previously married to Elfriede Wejmelka (1947 to 1971; divorced; one child), Catherine Kord (1972 to 1989; divorced), and Molly O'Gorman (? to 1993; divorced; two children).

Artschwager died February 9, 2013, in Albany, New York after a stroke he had weeks earlier. He was 89. He was survived by his wife; his children Eva, Clara and Augustus Theodore, and by his sister, Margarita Kay.

Excelsior High School, originally named Excelsior Union High School, was founded in 1903 and located on Walnut Street in Norwalk, California.  The current campus was built in 1924. The campus sustained substantial damage to the administration building, auditorium, and other buildings in the 1933 Long Beach earthquake (as did the Norwalk Grammar School which occupied the former Excelsior Union High school building). Although the earthquake occurred after school hours, one student died when an internal wall in a portion of the boy's gym failed. Its last graduating class was 1981.

The Excelsior Union High School District was composed of a single school which supported a district including present day Norwalk, Cerritos, Artesia, and Bellflower. In 1919, Excelsior Union High School had seven teachers, and an enrollment of ninety-eight. After World War II, the area rapidly changed from agricultural to residential and several new high schools were added to the district to absorb the large increase in population, including Bellflower, Artesia, Norwalk, La Mirada, and Gahr High Schools. In the 1950s, Bellflower High School was realigned under the Bellflower Unified School District. In the mid-1960s the changing needs of the area were the subject of a referendum to restructure the governance of area schools and realign the high schools under three school districts. The referendum passed and with the revised district boundaries, Excelsior Union High School's name was changed to Excelsior High School and it was made part of the Norwalk–La Mirada Unified School District.

For much of its history, the student body was known as "The Pilots" and the school mascot was Peter Pilot. In the late 1960s the cartoon character Snoopy was adopted as the mascot.  The school colors were green and white.

The school and campus still exist at the corner of Alondra and Pioneer Boulevards in Norwalk. It is now the home to the Norwalk–La Mirada Adult School.  Since its closure, the campus has been the location for the filming of Grease 2 and High School U.S.A. and the 1982 TV series Square Pegs.

Excelsior Adult School is also the home field for Excelsior's former archrival, the Norwalk Lancers Football team. During the late 80s till 1992, the football field and baseball facilities were also home of the Leffingwell Christian High School Lions and the Pioneer Baptist High School Patriots.

The Unfortunate Rake is an album released by Folkways Records in 1960, containing 20 different  variations from what is sometimes called the 'Rake' cycle of ballads. The album repeats a claim made by Phillips Barry in 1911 that the song is Irish in origin, a claim made on the basis of a fragment called "My Jewel My Joy" collected in Ireland in 1848. The song is incorrectly said to have been heard in Dublin, when the cited source states it was collected and had been heard in Cork. However, the notes to the album make no mention of what is now thought to be the oldest written version of the song, one called "The Buck's Elegy".

The album contains what appears to be claimed to be one of the earliest-known written versions of the whole song, a "19th century broadside text", sung by A L Lloyd. No source reference is given for this song. The liner notes refer the reader to an article written by Lloyd for "Sing" magazine in 1956. In this article, Lloyd refers to the 19th century broadside published by Such, which is a song called "The Unfortunate Lad". However, the words sung by Lloyd are not identical to those on the Such broadside. Significantly, in view of the research later done on the origin of the song St James' Infirmary, and in view of attempts to find a British hospital with the name St James', some of which research cites this LP as a source, the words St James' Hospital do not feature on the Such broadside, nor in "The Buck's Elegy".

The album also includes the variations that evolved from the earliest song, including the American standards "St. James Infirmary Blues" and "The Streets of Laredo". The album also contains songs written for humorous and political purposes, like "The Ballad of Sherman Wu" and "The Professor's Lament".

John E. Benington (December 31, 1921 – September 10, 1969) was an American college basketball coach. The picture listed of John Benington is incorrect. It is not him. This is from his daughter.

The Findlay, Ohio native played college basketball for two seasons at the University of San Francisco, where he captained the squad that won the 1949 National Invitation Tournament under Pete Newell. He then became assistant basketball coach at Michigan State University (1950–1956) under Newell and Forddy Anderson.

He served a combined 14 seasons as head men's basketball coach at Drake University (1956–1958), St. Louis University (1958–1965) and Michigan State (1965–1969). He led Saint Louis to four NIT appearances including the finals of the 1961 NIT where they lost to Providence.

Benington died of a massive heart attack at age 47 after jogging. He was found after hours in Jenison Fieldhouse by his wife and freshman coach.

Luzena Stanley Wilson, née Hunt (–1902)  was a California Gold Rush entrepreneur. Wilson came overland to California from Missouri with her husband and two small children in 1849. Luzena recounted her memoirs to her daughter Correnah, in which she describes her journey from the early days in Sacramento, her founding of the “El Dorado” hotel in Nevada City, and her purchase of land in Vaca.

Early life
Luzena Stanley Hunt was the third of nine children born to a Quaker family living in North Carolina. The family had moved to Andrew County, Missouri, by 1843, and in 1844 Luzena married Mason Wilson there.

Overland journey
Gold fever spread in the American West during 1849. When Luzena's husband made up his mind to go west, she stated that where he went, so too could she and her two small children. At the time of the California Gold Rush, the West was unsettled territory that seemed unsafe for women. A wife usually stayed behind and managed the home while the man tried his luck at striking gold. Before beginning her journey, Luzena thought it would be a small task. However, as they began their travels into the West and encountered the vast deserts reality set in. Luzena wrote: “The road was lined with the skeletons of the poor beasts who had died in the struggle ... Sometimes we found the bones of men bleaching beside their broken-down and abandoned wagons. The buzzards and coyotes, driven away by our presence from the horrible feasting, hovered just out of reach.” The enormous lure of gold led to many people embarking on the same westward trails. Guidebooks purchased by miners (49ers) spoke of how the crucial timing was to a successful journey; therefore, it was not uncommon to have multiple groups of men traveling together. Abandonment of possessions by caravans traveling the perilous overland trek was common to lighten loads of the wagons through dangerous or muddied roads. Mason Wilson, Luzena's husband, told her it would be necessary to abandon her dirty, but prized calico apron, and three sides of bacon to spare the oxen on the ever-worsening roads. The apron would not have made a significant difference in the weight of the wagon but it symbolized the need to prioritize in order to survive the passage over the vast terrains. The Wilsons thought that unless they were able to rid some weight they would be dropped behind the others in the caravan and traveling alone could be dangerous. Luzena, while her husband was busy fixing the wagon, decided to clean the apron and render the fat out of the bacon to refill her lard can and leave the rest as he requested. In her memoirs, she remarks how they later laughed at the idea that those few items would have really made a big difference.

Early California experience
Once in Sacramento, Luzena quickly learned the value of being a female minority in a male-dominated group. A hungry miner amazed at the presence of a female in the camp approached Luzena while she was cooking dinner for her family. He offered her five dollars for her biscuits. Luzena said she thought it sounded like a fortune and hesitated to respond. The miner mistook her hesitation as reluctance and upped the offer to ten dollars, which she gladly accepted.

Sacramento
After a few days in Sacramento, the Wilsons sold their oxen to purchase a stake in a hotel. The hotel, Luzena remarked, consisted of two rooms, the kitchen, which was her special province, and a living room. During the six-month stay in Sacramento, Luzena saw only two other women. Therefore, she was able to gain a lot of business from the men who desired a meal cooked by a woman.

Disaster and the move to Nevada City
Around Christmas time 1850, the levees broke in Sacramento and the floodwater damaged the Wilson's property and their small fortune of barley. Terrified of the long duration of winter with no money, and frightened of flooding disaster to strike again, Luzena learned of miners who were striking it rich in Nevada City. Broke and desperate to start anew, Luzena found a man with an idle team who said he would take her, her two children, a stove, and two sacks of flour to Nevada City for seven hundred dollars. Luzena stated if she survived the journey and made money he would be paid. Luzena's memoirs do not specify if her husband came with them or if he found other transportation beforehand or afterward. Upon arrival in Nevada City Luzena saw a sign for the Wamac Hotel and remarked, that her being a woman made her decide to take in boarders as a source of income. With her new determination to set up a rival hotel, she chopped her wood and drove her stakes into the ground. By the time her husband came back that evening she already had twenty men eating at her table in the El Dorado hotel. In six weeks Luzena had made the money to pay back the teamster.

Disaster again
Luzena recalled, “We had lived eighteen months in Nevada City when fire cut us adrift again, as water had done in Sacramento.” Fire swept through and burned the “El Dorado” to the ground and the Wilsons decided to journey back towards Sacramento. However, having found it much changed, they lingered for a few months and decided to venture on to the valley. After four or five days of easy traveling, the Wilsons pitched their tent along the first outlying range of low foothills. Luzena wrote of their desire to settle in the valley. Lacking the funds to buy land, Mason set off to cut hay in order to make money, leaving Luzena on her own. She created a sign with scrap wood and charred embers saying “Wilson’s Hotel” and started over again. Wilson's Hotel was the only hotel on the road between Sacramento and Benicia for several years. This site eventually became the city of Vacaville, California. Luzena remained in Vacaville for 27 prosperous years. Her meager beginnings with the “Wilson’s Hotel” grew once again into a money-making business. Luzena invested their money in numerous properties in the area.

Later life
In 1872, Mason suddenly left his family and headed for Texas. Luzena stayed on in Vacaville until 1877 when two fires destroyed her property. After the fires she once again moved to Sacramento. Income from her real estate transactions supplemented her income during the later part of her life. In 1881, Luzena's daughter, Correnah, entered puberty. To make the time pass, Luzena recounted the stories of her early days in California. Her final statement in her memoirs remarked how the difficulties of her earlier pioneer days are left far behind in this current age of plenty. Luzena Stanley Wilson's memoirs present an alternate view of the California Gold Rush in which women are often left out. She died on July 11, 1902, at the age of 83 of thyroid cancer at the Hotel Pleasanton in San Francisco.

Steven V. Angelo (born June 8, 1952 in Somerville, Massachusetts) is a former state representative and Town Manager.

Early life
Angelo was elected to Town Meeting in 1971 while he was still in college. Following his graduation, Angelo worked as a teacher in the Saugus, Massachusetts school system, teaching history and law.

In 1978, he challenged thirty year incumbent Belden Bly for the 9th Essex District seat in the Massachusetts House of Representatives. He lost by only 318 votes.

In 1980, Bly did not run for re-election and Angelo once again ran for the seat. He defeated Lawrence Means and Christie Serino for the Democratic nomination and defeated Republican Clayton Trefry in the general election.

State representative
While in the House he served as the House Chairman of the Natural Resources and Agriculture Committee (1985–1996), and the Government Regulations Committee (1995–1996).

Angelo co-authored the Solid Waste Law which mandated that acid gas scrubbers be placed on the incinerator in Saugus. The law also began what became the state's curbside recycling program.

Additionally, he pushed through laws on Acid Rain, Massachusetts State Revolving Fund, Wildlife Under the Wetlands, Hazardous Waste, Land Stamp, Tidelands, Open Space Acquisition, Underground Petroleum Storage, and the Cape Cod Commission. He served as Chairman of the Special Commission on Hazardous Waste, the Special Commission on Low Level Radioactive Waste, and the Special Commission on Solid Waste.

Although in House leadership for twelve years, Angelo resigned his position when he was on the losing side of a leadership fight (1996) which resulted in the election of Thomas Finneran as House Speaker. Although he was re-elected in 1996 and 1998, Angelo was not again to serve in House leadership due to conflicts with Finneran and his new leadership team.
