# Sandy Creek, New York

**Sandy Creek** is a town in Oswego County, New York, United States. The population was 3,939 at the time of the 2010 census. The name is derived from a creek in the area.

The **Town of Sandy Creek** is in the northwestern part of the county. The village of Sandy Creek is located within the town.

## History

Champlain passed through the town in 1615, leading a war party of Hurons and soldiers.

The town was first settled around 1803, near Lacona. Sandy Creek was formed from the Town of Richland in 1825.

In 1835, Sandy Creek resident Thomas Meacham decided to make the world's largest cheese as a gift to president Andrew Jackson. His finished product was 4 feet in diameter, 2 feet thick, and weighed nearly 1400 pounds. The cheese was delivered and sat in the White House until February 22, 1836, when the president invited the public to come to the White House and eat the cheese. This event was made famous in an episode of the television show The West Wing.

The Holyoke Cottage was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.

## Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 46.5 square miles (120.5 km2), of which 42.3 square miles (109.5 km2) is land and 4.3 square miles (11.1 km2) (9.17%) is water.

The western border of Sandy Creek is Lake Ontario and the northern border is Jefferson County.

Interstate 81 and U.S. Route 11 pass through the town (north-south). New York State Route 3 runs north to south near the Lake Ontario shoreline.

### Communities and locations

* Community Park  A location near the northern town line.
* The Elms  A hamlet in the northwestern part of the town at the northern end of North Pond. An 18-hole golf course is located here.
* Lacona  A village east of Sandy Creek village, located on Route 22.
* North Pond  A pond in the western part of the town. The pond is similar to a lagoon by virtue of being isolated from Lake Ontario by low barrier islands. This pond is rather large (approximately two mi wide and four miles long) and much deeper than South Sandy Pond (30+ feet). It has good fishing and generally good water skiing but with considerable more chop than South Sandy Pond. The pond is popular with residents from Syracuse and Rochester, who have small cottages (camps) on water's edge. At the south end of the pond is Sandy Island Beach State Park.
* Rainbow Shores  A shoreline of Lake Ontario south of South Pond, near the southern town line.
* Sandy Creek  The Village of Sandy Creek is near the interstate highway.
* Sandy Pond  A hamlet at the southern end of North Pond.
* Sandy Pond Corners  A location east of Sandy Pond, located on Route 3.
* South Pond (also called South Sandy Pond)  A small pond south of North Pond and north of Rainbow Shores. It is connected to North Sandy Pond by a canal. Many small camps are owned by residents from Syracuse and Rochester.

title: SNO+

abstract: SNO+ is a physics experiment designed to search for neutrinoless double beta decay, with secondary measurements of proton–electron–proton (pep) solar neutrinos, geoneutrinos from radioactive decays in the Earth, and reactor neutrinos. It could also observe supernovae neutrinos if a supernova occurs in our galaxy. It is under construction using the underground equipment already installed for the former Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) experiment at SNOLAB.

**SNO+** is a physics experiment designed to search for neutrinoless double beta decay, with secondary measurements of proton–electron–proton (*pep*) solar neutrinos, geoneutrinos from radioactive decays in the Earth, and reactor neutrinos. It could also observe supernovae neutrinos if a supernova occurs in our galaxy. It is under construction (as of February 2017) using the underground equipment already installed for the former Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) experiment at SNOLAB.

## Physics goals

The primary goal of the SNO+ detector is the search for neutrinoless double beta decay, specifically with regard to decay of 130
Te
, to understand if a neutrino is its own anti-particle (i.e. a majorana fermion). Secondary physics goals include measurement of neutrinos or antineutrinos from:

## Testing and construction

The previous experiment, SNO, used heavy water (D2O) within the sphere and relied on Cherenkov radiation interaction. The SNO+ experiment will use the sphere filled with linear alkyl benzene to act as a liquid scintillator and target material. The sphere is surrounded with photomultiplier tubes and the assembly is floated in water and the sphere held down against the resulting buoyant forces by ropes. Testing (filled with water) is expected to begin early 2016, with full operation with liquid a few months after that, and Tellurium loading begins in 2017.

A neutrino interaction with this liquid produces several times more light than an interaction in a water Cherenkov experiment such as the original SNO experiment or Super-Kamiokande. The energy threshold for the detection of neutrinos can, therefore, be lower, and proton–electron–proton solar neutrinos (with an energy of 1.44 MeV) can be observed. In addition, a liquid scintillator experiment can detect anti-neutrinos like those created in nuclear fission reactors and the decay of thorium and uranium in the earth.

SNO+ uses 780 tonnes of linear alkylbenzene as the scintillator (the detector started to be filled with the scintillator at the end of 2018 ) and will be filled with 130
Te
in the future. Originally the plan was to fill with 0.3% 130
Te
(800 kg), but later talks have cited 0.5% (1.3 tonnes)

Earlier proposals placed more emphasis on neutrino observations. The current emphasis on neutrinoless double beta decay is because the interior of the acrylic vessel has been significantly contaminated by radioactive daughter products of the radon gas that is common in the mine air. These could leach into the scintillator, where some would be removed by the filtration system, but the remainder may interfere with low-energy neutrino measurements. The neutrinoless double beta decay observations are not affected by this.

The project received funding for initial construction from NSERC in April 2007. As of early 2013, the cavity had been refurbished and re-sealed to new cleanliness standards, more stringent than for the original SNO due to the new experiment's greater sensitivity.

The main civil engineering challenge is that the current SNO vessel is supported by a series of ropes, to prevent the weight of the heavy water inside from sinking it in the surrounding normal water. The proposed liquid scintillator (linear alkylbenzene) is lighter than water, and must be held down instead, but still without blocking the view of its interior. The existing support rope attachment points, cast into the acrylic sphere's equator, are not suitable for upside-down use.

## Computing

The collaboration is investigating the use of grid resources to deliver the computing power needed by the experiment. This is after the success of the LHC Computing Grid (wLCG) used by the LHC experiments. The SNO+ VO has been using resources provided by GridPP.

# Corn Exchange, Haddington

The **Corn Exchange** is a commercial building in Court Street, Haddington, East Lothian, Scotland. The structure, which is now used as a community events venue, is a Category B listed building.

## History

Until the mid-19th century, corn merchants conducted their trade under the arches of the Town House. By the mid-19th century, this arrangement was deemed inadequate, and civic leaders decided to commission a dedicated corn exchange on a site to the east of the Sheriff Courthouse.

The building was designed by Francis Farquharson in the neoclassical style, built in ashlar stone and was completed in 1854. The design involved a symmetrical main frontage of three bays facing onto Court Street. The central bay featured a Venetian window with an architrave and a hood mould surmounted by a clock, while the outer bays contained doorways with architraves, triangular pediments and wrought iron lamp brackets. The central bay was surmounted by a raised pediment with a carving of a wheat sheaf in the tympanum. Internally, the principal room was the main hall which stretched back behind the main frontage.

The use of the building as a corn exchange declined significantly in the wake of the Great Depression of British Agriculture in the late 19th century. It was subsequently used as a community events venue and, during the First World War and the Second World War, it served as billeting for soldiers.

In June 2014, the management of the building was transferred from East Lothian Council to the newly formed Haddington Community Development Trust. An extensive programme of refurbishment works, undertaken by Maxi Construction at a cost of £800,000 to a design by Summers Inman, started on site in spring 2019. The work was paused while the building was used as a vaccination centre during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom. After the work was adapted to allow the Brunton Theatre Trust to use the corn exchange for theatrical performances, the building re-opened to the public again in October 2023.

## Endangered species

Cordelia Bay is known for its species biodiversity and also for prevalence of endangered species such as Sacramento splittail, *Pogonichthys macrolepidotus* and the Salt Marsh Harvest Mouse.

## Water quality

Some areas which drain into Cordelia Slough from the north are subject to development pressure from the expanding population of the San Francisco Bay Area; correspondingly, there are increasing risks of adverse water quality due to urban surface runoff from such new development. Cordelia Slough is considered a subarea of the Grizzly Island Wildlife Area, which is a State of California designated Wildlife Area.

title: Strathy Hall

abstract: Strathy Hall is an antebellum plantation house located near Richmond Hill in Bryan County, Georgia. It was originally constructed in 1756 by James MacKay, a Scottish Captain serving alongside George Washington under general Ogelthorpe defending the southern boarder from the Spanish. In the early 1800s the house was severely damaged in a fire and by circa 1840 by George W. McAllister restored the house on its original foundation, the paternal uncle of Archibald McAllister, who owned Strathy Hall Plantation, a large rice plantation on the Ogeechee River. Based on photographs, the house was much larger in the early 20th century, due to additions and alterations. Henry Ford removed the additions when he bought the property in the 1920s. The house is raised slightly on brick piers. The inside walls are plastered and have a concave moulding. The floors are made of pine.

***Cortinarius rotundisporus***, also known as the **elegant blue webcap**, is a basidiomycete mushroom of the genus *Cortinarius* found in southern Australia, where it is found in eucalypt forests and rainforests. The cap of the fruit body is a steely blue colour, with a yellowish boss, and paler similarly coloured stipe.

## Taxonomy

*Cortinarius rotundisporus* was initially described by naturalists John Burton Cleland and Edwin Cheel in 1918. It is a member of the subgenus *Myxacium* within the genus *Cortinarius*; these species are characterized by the presence of a viscid to glutinous outer veil and stipe. Its specific name is derived from the Latin *rotundus* "round", and Ancient Greek *spora* "seed".

## Description

The cap ranges from 2.5 to 7 cm (1–3 in) in diameter, and is initially convex before flattening. It has a slight boss that is mustard-, honey- or cream-yellow tinged and steely blue elsewhere. The adnate gills are creamy or lilac-tinged early, and darken with the spores. The slender 5–7.5 cm (2–3 in) stipe lacks a ring; it is pale yellow or white with a tinge of the cap colour. The flesh is yellowish and may have a lilac or pale blue tinge. The spore print is reddish brown and the oval to round spores measure 8.5 × 6.5 μm. There is no particular taste or smell. Potassium hydroxide will produce a pink-purple reaction in the stipe or cap. The mycelium is white.

## Distribution and habitat

It has been found in New South Wales, Victoria, southeastern South Australia, southern Western Australia, and Tasmania. It has also been recorded from New Zealand.

Fruit bodies are found in eucalypt forests and rainforests, and occasionally cleared areas. It forms associations with *Eucalyptus*, *Leptospermum* and possibly *Casuarina*.

# Straumnes Air Station

**Latrar Air Station (ADC/NATO ID: H-4)**, also known as **Straumnes Air Station**, is a former United States Air Force General Surveillance Radar station, located at the top of Mount Straumnes and in the former village of Látrar in the bay of Aðalvík, Hornstrandir. The site was operated by the 934th Aircraft Control and Warning (later Air Defense, Later Air Control) Squadron, and was equipped with AN/FPS-3, AN/FPS-8 and AN/FPS-4 radars.

## History

Construction of the air station started in 1953 and it started operations in 1956. After only being in operation for four years, a decision was made to close the site in 1960 due to high operation costs and the last air force and civilian staff left the following year. In 1962, the Icelandic government took over ownership of the remaining buildings.

The Greenland, Iceland and United Kingdom air defense sector, better known as the GIUK gap, was routinely utilized by the Soviet Union's long-range heavy bombers and maritime reconnaissance platforms as a transit point towards the Atlantic Ocean. From bases located at Arkhangelsk and Murmansk, Soviet aircraft would stream down to the North Cape in Norway towards the Gap which was use as a doorway to the vast Atlantic. Most of the Soviet missions were destined to probe United States’ air defense along the North Atlantic and after 1960 in the Caribbean where Cuba, the USSR's most important satellite state outside continental Europe, was located. Such was the perceived threat from the Soviet incursions that it became a priority for NATO to demonstrate to that the strategic Giuk passage would be monitored at all times.

The mission of the station was to intercept and shadow all Soviet aircraft in transit in and from the Gap which passed through the detection range of its radars and pass the information to interceptor aircraft deployed at Keflavik Airfield.

After the site was closed, the facility was abandoned. The buildings are difficult to reach and remain in a deteriorating condition, most without windows, abandoned to the elements. In 1991, a major cleaning operation was performed at the site, involving the Icelandic Defence Force and local SAR units. The site remains a popular hiking destination.

The **Council Bluffs Public Library** serves the residents of Council Bluffs, Iowa, United States, along with unincorporated and rural areas of Pottawattamie County. Several cities also contract with the library to provide services. It dates back to 1866. The library is currently located on Willow Avenue. The previous library building on Pearl Street was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.

## History

The public library in Council Bluffs had its beginnings in 1866, when a subscription library was established for males over the age of 12. The Council Bluffs Library Association was formed in 1878. The Free Public Library was created in 1882, and it operated out of rented space. W. S. Baird, a library trustee, contacted the Carnegie Foundation who agreed to fund a new building at $50,000 if the city agreed to provide a site and institute an annual tax of $5,000 to operate the facility. The foundation was persuaded to raise its grant to $70,000 if the yearly tax was raised to $7,000. The grant was awarded on January 6, 1903, and the new building was dedicated on September 12, 1905. It was designed by the Chicago architectural firm of Patton & Miller in the Beaux-Arts-style. It was the largest Carnegie library built in the state.

The library building became inadequate. The present library was completed in 1998 for $13.5 million. It contains 67,500 square feet (6,270 m2) of space. The Carnegie-funded building has been converted into the Union Pacific Railroad Museum, which opened in 2013. The city retains ownership of the old building, the Union Pacific Railroad pays for the operating costs, and the library maintains the collection.

# Toronzo Cannon

**Toronzo Cannon** (born February 14, 1968, in Chicago, Illinois, United States) is an American electric blues guitarist, vocalist and songwriter. He grew up on the South Side of Chicago near the Robert Taylor Homes and Theresa's Lounge where he heard blues artists including Buddy Guy and Junior Wells.

## Biography

Cannon first bought a guitar at age 22. He played reggae music before playing blues. Among the influences he has named are Albert Collins, B.B. King, Freddie King, Buddy Guy and Jimi Hendrix.

Cannon played guitar with Tommy McCracken, Wayne Baker Brooks, L.V. Banks and Joanna Connor beginning in 1996. He started his own band, The Cannonball Express in 2001. He recorded *My Woman* (self-released in 2007), *Leaving Mood* (Delmark, 2011) and *John The Conquer Root* (Delmark, 2013). The third album was nominated for a Blues Music Award as Rock Blues Album of the Year in 2013.

He signed with Alligator Records in 2015. His Alligator Records debut, *The Chicago Way*, co-produced by Cannon and Alligator Records president Bruce Iglauer, was released on February 26, 2016.

Cannon drives a Chicago Transit Authority bus during the day and performs at night, on weekends and during vacation breaks.

Cannon has performed at the Chicago Blues Festival nine times. He headlined in 2015. He has also performed in many United States and European cities. His overseas tours include Mexico (2010), South Africa (2011), Armenia (2013 and 2014), France and Netherlands (2013), France and Spain (2014) and Sweden, France, Spain, Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg (2015). His UK debut came at the Edinburgh Blues Club Voodoo Rooms in 2017.

*Blues Matters* (UK) said, "Toronzo is the real deal. Blistering guitar and inventive songs: jealousy, double-crossing, knives and hand grenades... Chicago style."

*The Chicago Tribune* said, "Chicago-based Toronzo Cannon, who performed for the first time as a festival headliner, made the most of this opportunity to win over a new audience. His extroverted guitar style sounded especially compelling when he closely engaged with keyboardist Ronnie Hicks' sturdy chord changes. Cannon also has a forceful singing voice, whether narrating an original murder ballad or on his upbeat "Sweet Sweet Sweet."

*The Chicago Sun-Times* said, "The Bridgeport resident (and CTA bus driver) was immersed in the world of blues by hanging around Theresa’s Lounge. Today he’s one of Chicago’s new greats."

*The Chicago Reader* said, "Local singer and guitarist Toronzo Cannon shows off his impressive range on 2013's John the Conquer Root (Delmark), tackling full-band soul ("Cold World"), airy acoustic ballads ("Let It Shine Always"), and rough-and-tumble biker-bar rock 'n' roll ("Sweet, Sweet, Sweet"). Cannon excels when he lets his ax take the lead: on the title track, for instance, he doles out slow, shimmying riffs and smoldering licks.

*Blues & Rhythm* (UK) said, "Without sounding like I'm going over the top with praise, this release is terrific and top heavy with superb musicianship and quality material and is worthy of any blues lover's attention. It also highlights the cream of the next generation of blues musicians starting to make their names on the Chicago blues scene."

His 2016 album, *The Chicago Way* was nominated for a Blues Music Award in 2017 as Album of the Year.

## Development economics

Early in his career, Medhora's work focused on development economics. During his time at IDRC, Medhora focused particularly on development finance. He argued that policy makers should avoid “cookie cutter” approaches to economic policy in developing economies. In other words, what works for one country – be it developed or otherwise – may not work in other contexts. His major publications in this area are:

* \[With R. Blundell and C. Heady\], "Labour Markets in an Era of Adjustment: the Case of Côte d'Ivoire", in S. Horton, R. Kanbur, and D. Mazumdar, eds., *Labour Markets in an* *Era of Adjustment*, Washington D.C.: The World Bank, 1994.
* "The Allocation of Seigniorage in the Franc Zone: the BEAC and BCEAO Regions Compared", *World Development*, October 1995.
* "Seigniorage Flows in the West African Monetary Union, 1976-89", *Weltwirtschaftliches* *Archiv*, September 1992.

* “Forward: Research Addressing COVID-19 in Africa: Challenges and Leadership in a Context of Global Economic Transformation.” *Institute for New Economic Thinking (INET)*, 2022

## Multilateralism

Medhora argues that strong multilateral institutions are important for effective global governance. He points to institutions like the G20, the IMF and the WTO as examples of institutions that have the potential to make positive contributions to global well being. He also identifies trade negotiations as a potential forum for multilateral global governance, and argues that trade agreements have the potential to be mechanisms for addressing diverse challenges. In this field, his publications include:

* "International Cooperation: Is the Multilateral System Helping?" *CIGI Paper* No. 218, June 2019.
* "The G20's "Development" Agenda: Fundamental, Not a Sidebar," *CIGI Policy Brief* No. 80, June 2016.

* "Bypasses to the International Monetary Fund". *Transnational Legal Theory*. Vo 10, No 3-4, September 2019.
* \[With Taylor Owen\] "A Post-Covid-19 Digital Bretton Woods", Project Syndicate, April 17, 2020.

## Innovation policy

Medhora has argued that, in an economy increasingly driven by intangible assets, public policy should be oriented towards promoting the production of intellectual property. Along with promoting innovation, he argues that international governance frameworks are needed in order to ensure artificial intelligence and big data are deployed ethically. To address the challenges and opportunities of the new economy, Medhora has called for a “Bretton Woods moment” in which international consensus is formed around the principle that the technology-fuelled economy should serve the global good. His major publications in this area are :

* "Rethinking Policy in a Digital World," *CIGI Policy Brief No. 143,* November 2015.
* "Data Governance in the Digital Age," *CIGI Special Report*, May 2018.
* "New Thinking on Innovation," *CIGI Special Report*, November 2017.
* "AI & Global Governance: Three Paths Towards a Global Governance of Artificial Intelligence," *United Nations University Centre for Policy Research,* October 2018.
* "The definition of work is about to be permanently transformed," *The Globe and Mail,* July 2018.
