# Vibeke Stene

**Vibeke Stene** (born 17 August 1978) is a Norwegian soprano and actress. She is best known as a former member of the gothic metal band Tristania, which she joined in 1996 and appears with on five albums. as the band became "one of the world's premiere goth metal bands".

In 2007, Stene left Tristania and temporarily retired from the music industry to start a family and teach singing. In 2013, Stene came out of retirement with a guest appearance for the band God of Atheists. She later worked in musical theater and then formed the doom metal band Veil of Secrets.

## Early life

Stene was born in Sokndal, Rogaland, Norway to Steinar Stene and Sissel Bø Stene, and has two sisters named Ingvild and Maiken. She first performed for people outside her family at the age of three. She began taking singing lessons at age 13, and became interested in classical singing. In an interview, she stated that her influences were the people with whom she had performed personally. Stene has also cited Tori Amos, Björk, David Bowie, Tom Waits, and Diamanda Galás as "only a few of many singers that I think are very good".

During her school years, Stene performed in jazz, folk, and classical concerts both as a solo artist and with various bands. Around age 17, she became interested in heavy metal singing when she started "to know my inner melancholy". She was inspired to join a band after seeing Theater of Tragedy live in Stavanger. She took vocal lessons until age 23, long after she had become a professional singer, because she wanted to learn how to teach others to sing.

Tristania keyboardist Einar Moen stated in an interview that Stene "has a classical education actually – sort of an opera school or university degree. And she has also taken singing lessons since she was a little girl, so she's always sung."

## Career

### 1996–2007: Tristania

Stene met the members of Tristania through a friend and saw them again at a music contest. She joined the band at age 18 while still in school. At that time, Tristania was planning to record their first demo. At first the band intended her to be a temporary guest vocalist. According to Stene, she did not know she was an official member of the band until she read an article about them after *Widow's Weeds* was released.

After five albums with Tristania, Stene left the band in February 2007 to finish her university degree which she started but did not finish in 2000, and also because she did not like the direction of the band's recent music. Coincidentally, singer Tarja Turunen had left the Finnish symphonic metal band Nightwish around the same time, leading to widespread speculation that Stene would be her replacement, and Stene had to announce that this was merely a rumor.

### 2007–2012: Retirement

In the years after she left Tristania, Stene retired from the music industry. She gave birth to two children and taught singing during her retirement. In a 2010 interview, Stene was asked if she would sing professionally again. She declared that when given a good offer, she would take it. In 2011, the electronic band Plutho released a song called "Queen of Broken Hearts" featuring Stene, though it was recorded back in 1999.

### 2013–present: Return to music

In June 2013, Stene announced on Facebook that she was returning to the music scene. Her first new music activity was an appearance with the extreme metal project God of Atheists, formed by Asgeir Mickelson. In 2015 she wrote and sang one song for the gothic metal band Viper Solfa on their debut album *Carving an Icon*.

Stene also ventured into theater work. She appeared in a play titled *Skammens Gissel* (*Hostage of Shame*) in which she played the role of Silja. Her theater debut was in October 2015. She described the play and her character:

> Silja made the choice to move away from her husband and her children to a collective of German soldiers. By the war's end, she traveled with one of the soldiers back to his homeland. After a few years her son decided to track down his mother. He found her in Germany and brought her home to Norway in secret. In the south of Norway Silja becomes hostage, caught in her own home by shame. Her son have to bear the secret alone. The drama plays out in the home between mother and son and those out on the street, the free – or unfree.

In July 2020, Stene announced the formation of a new doom metal band called Veil of Secrets with Asgeir Mickelson. The band's debut album *Dead Poetry* was released in November 2020. According to Stene, "After some years with no music production or dissemination, I strongly felt an inner longing to create and feel alive through music. So I started to seek a resolution. \[...\] The composing process of' *Dead Poetry* was deeply founded on honesty and trust, and therefore I'm very proud to finally share Veil of Secrets."

# Horse market (Munich)

The Munich horse market is a historical **horse sale** in Munich, Bavaria. Started in 1883, the market took place in the Schmellerhalle, on the edge of the then newly built halls of the Munich slaughterhouse, originally twice a week under the name Rossmarkt. Today the market is held near Ingolstadt.

## Move from Schmellerhalle

Since the 1970s, the horse market was held on the first Saturday of the month. At the end of 1972, the horse market had to move from the Schmellerhalle to the cattle yard hall because the land owner, the City of Munich, sold the Schmeller site. Apartments were built on the site. A statue, *Zwei Pferde* by German artist Claus Nageler was installed to commemorate the site of the old market.

In December 2006 the last Munich horse market took place. The hall, which was in danger of collapsing, was demolished. The organizer, the purchasing and delivery cooperative of the cattle merchants Bayerns eG, moved the horse market to the Oberlandhalle in Miesbach.

## Move to Miesbach

From 2014 to December 2015, the market took place in the new Oberlandhalle in Miesbach.

As the conditions in the new Oberlandhalle in Miesbach deteriorated, the organizer moved the horse market to Ingolstadt. The date of the first Ingolstadt horse market was set for February 6, 2016.

## Transfer to Ingolstadt

In Ingolstadt, the horse market takes place every first Saturday of the month, with a few exceptions. Horse dealers from all over Bavaria offer their horses. In the catering trade, horse sausages and horse meat were offered. At times, small animals (rabbits, hares, chickens, etc.) were also sold.

# Amendments to the Citizenship Law (popular initiative, Latvia)

**Amendments to the Citizenship Law** of Latvia, suggested by a popular initiative in 2012, sought to grant citizenship of Latvia, starting in 2014, to those non-citizens who would not refuse it. The proposed amendments were rejected by the Central Election Commission. The CEC decision was contested by the proponents of the amendments, who applied to court. The court proceedings were suspended in 2013, with the Supreme Court requesting the Constitutional Court to decide on the compliance of some applicable provisions with the Constitution.

## The draft law and gathering signatures

In 2011, the party ForHRUL initiated gathering signatures (certified by notaries) for amendments to the Citizenship law. The amendments provide to add to the Section 2 of the law (establishing which groups form the circle of citizens of Latvia) the following Clause 6: “Since 1 January 2014 – non-citizens, who have not submitted an application on keeping the status of a non-citizen until 30 November 2013, in a manner to be determined by the Cabinet of Ministers” and to add some transitional provisions.

In May, 2012, the Minister of Justice Gaidis Bērziņš has commented on the collection of signatures through his spokesperson, stating that the public officials should "exclude the opportunity to be involved in a situation which could be understood as subversive and compromising" The parliamentary group of the Harmony Centre has filed a question to the minister, considering him to exert pressure upon notaries.

In August, 2012, it was announced, that the 10,000 signatures, necessary at the first stage, are collected. Prime Minister Valdis Dombrovskis has expressed hope that there will be no second stage of gathering signatures and called the Central Election Commission to consider, whether the second stage should be conducted. The President's chancery invited the CEC to consider not only the legal drafting, but also the content of the draft law.

## Consideration by the Central Election Commission

On 4 September 2012, the signatures were submitted to the Central Election Commission. On 27 September, the CEC postponed deciding on the destiny of the draft law.

The CEC' verification confirmed that the draft law was signed by the necessary number of voters (12,686 valid signatures of citizens, while 10,000 were needed at the organisers' paid stage). On 1 November 2012, the CEC decided by 6 votes to 2 with 1 abstaining, that the draft law is not consistent with the Constitution, namely the state continuity doctrine, and consequently cannot be considered fully elaborated; therefore it should not be referred to the state-paid stage of collection of signatures.

## Trials

The CEC decision was appealed against in two lawsuits, by those who submitted the draft law to CEC and by one of those who signed the draft law, both cases being launched in November, according to the general order of appeals against CEC decisions (before the administrative district court).

On December 11, 2012, a set of amendments to the law on legislative initiatives, adopted on November, 8, came into force. It provides the CEC with the competence to refuse gathering signatures on the grounds of draft law not conforming with the Constitution and provides for a special way of judicial review - such CEC refusals are appealed against before the Department of Administrative Cases of the Supreme Court and must be adjudicated during one month. The administrative district court transferred both cases to the Department of Administrative Cases of the Supreme Court.

On 11 February 2013, the Department of Administrative Cases of the Supreme Court has adopted a decision to adjourn the proceedings in the case and to request the Constitutional Court to evaluate whether the draft law conforms with the Constitution and Declaration of Independence. The decision was described as unexpected in the legal journal "Jurista vārds": the opinions of the experts invited by the journal have ranged from "The Senate's actions are well-grounded" to "haven't they mentioned that the Constitutional Court does not evaluate draft laws?".

On 20 February, the Department of Administrative Cases of the Supreme Court reconsidered its own decision and asked the Constitutional Court another question instead - whether the provisions of the amended law on legislative initiative, which give the competence to review the constitutionality of the draft laws to the CEC and the Supreme Court, conform with Article 1 of the Constitution (the principle of separation of powers).

On 12 March, the Constitutional Court has launched proceedings on the application by the Department of Administrative Cases of the Supreme Court. On 18 December, the Constitutional Court decided that CEC's and the Supreme Court's competence is constitutional, provided that they only stop initiatives obviously contradicting the Constitution.

On 12 February 2014, the Supreme Court has delivered the judgment considering the CEC decision to be lawful.

# Nord Krauskopf

**Nord Krauskopf** (January 26, 1922  August 3, 1986) was a NASCAR Winston Cup Series race car owner whose career spanned from 1966 to 1977. He was the owner of K&K Insurance and a part of the business since its foundation in 1952. This was a position that he kept in the corporate world while having a second career in the motorsports industry as a car owner. This dual role lasted until the 1970s when he left the NASCAR circuit to focus on running his insurance company. His team would field mostly Dodge Chargers and Dodge Daytonas to the Cup Series races.

## Career

He was known for employing veteran NASCAR drivers like Bobby Allison, Charlie Glotzbach, Bobby Isaac, Sam McQuagg, and Dave Marcis. Krauskopf has seen his drivers participate in 345 races with 43 victories (first victory at the 1968 Columbia 200 – last victory at the 1976 Dixie 500), 171 finishes in the "top five," and 214 finishes in the "top ten." These drivers also managed to lead 15,705 laps out of 90,001 while finishing 12th place on average. Krauskopf also become one of the first millionaires in NASCAR history by collecting a grand total of $1,225,994 in his 12-year career ($6,164,305.91 when adjusted for inflation) while his employees drove 91,890.6 miles (147,883.6 km) of racing action. He would also see his drivers go to the pole position 69 times. A major part of Krauskopf's career would be Bobby Isaac's championship victory during the 1970 NASCAR Winston Cup Season.

The constant changes of NASCAR in the 1970s would render Krauskopf's team uncompetitive, and mid-way through the 1976 race season he put his racing team and its assets (shops, cars, etc.) on the market and then sold it to coal mining magnate Jim Stacy. As a result, he would constantly be at odds with NASCAR officials.

Krauskopf retired in 1980 as chairman and owner of K&K Insurance Group. He sold his ownership share of the company in 1984. He died in 1986.

**Herbert Klynn** (November 11, 1917 – February 3, 1999) was an American animator at UPA from 1944 to 1959 eventually rising to the role of Vice President and Production Chief. He worked on various Mr. Magoo cartoons and Gerald McBoing-Boing cartoons as well as cartoon shorts such as *Madeline* (1952) and *Christopher Crumpet* (1953).

In 1959 he founded the television animation studio Format Films, best known for producing *The Alvin Show* and *The Lone Ranger*, as well as eleven Road Runner cartoons and three Daffy Duck and Speedy Gonzales cartoons for Warner Bros.'s *Looney Tunes* and *Merrie Melodies* series.

Format Productions also created title sequences for several TV series, including *I Spy*, *Honey West*, the animated characters on the television variety show *Hee Haw*, animated various TV commercials, and created film title designs for *The Glory Guys* and *Clambake*.

Klynn worked on various projects with author Ted Geisel (Dr. Seuss), and also worked with Academy Award-winning designer Saul Bass. He worked alongside sci-fi writer Ray Bradbury in creating the Oscar-nominated “Icarus Montgolfier Wright,” an animated story of the first human travel to the Moon.

Herb Klynn co-created the short lived sitcom *The Duck Factory*, which was the first leading role for Jim Carrey in 1984.

A longtime member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Klynn donated his considerable film and TV archive to the USC School of Cinema-Television and to the Museum of Television and Radio Broadcasting in Beverly Hills and New York. He also proposed the original idea of the Student Academy Awards which has been held since 1973.

Klynn received the Winsor McCay Award in 1991; one of the highest honors given to an individual in the animation industry in recognition for career contributions to the art of animation.

The Format Films archives are at the University of Wyoming.

# Toms River Fest

**Toms River Fest** was a major festival event held at the campus of Toms River High School North in Toms River Township, New Jersey, during the summers of 2005, 2006 and 2008. It was selected by the American Bus Association as one of the Top 100 Events in North America for Group Travel 2006. The festival, originally conceived as an annual event, has not been held since the last one in 2008.

## Low Attendance in 2006

The festival attracted over 70,000 people in its first year. For 2006, over 100,000 people were expected to attend each day, however, estimates showed that only 45,000 attended over the four days. Officials blamed the low attendance rate on a dangerous heat wave, which struck the area with near-record temperatures during the four days of the festival. The revenue for the event was $60,000, down substantially from $394,000 in its previous year.

## Acts

In 2005, Maroon 5, Kelly Clarkson, Clay Aiken, Jesse McCartney, Keith Urban, Fuel, Phantom Planet, and others performed.

In 2006, Rihanna, Hilary Duff, Lonestar, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, Meat Loaf, KC and the Sunshine Band, Martina McBride, Rick Springfield, Live, Alexa Ray Joel, and LeAnn Rimes performed. Hilary Duff was the most successful act in 2006, selling over ten thousand seats.

In 2008, Daughtry, Carrie Underwood, Avril Lavigne, Lifehouse, Live, Collective Soul, Gavin DeGraw, Push Play, The Lost Trailers, Marie Digby, Day of Fire and children's musician Mr. Ray performed.

## Inside Toms River Fest

The festival offers free carnival rides, a large food court, free BMX stunt shows, free fireworks, the Millennium Radio Marketplace, a flea market and area for attendees to learn more about local businesses and services, and concerts inside the Poland Spring Arena, which is located on campus, the Lester Glenn Day Stage, and the Pine Belt Night Stage.

Since there is no parking allowed near the festival, free shuttle services are provided by Wachovia and Toms River Regional Schools at the Toms River schools. Meridian Health sponsored the 2008 transportation program, paying for the diesel fuel for the district's large fleet of school buses.

## Toms River Fest 2008

Toms River Fest returned in the Summer of 2008. The official announcement, made May 1, 2008, revealed the headliners to be Carrie Underwood and Daughtry, and that the festival itself would be held for just two days instead of four, August 2–3, 2008. Other artists featured the in lineup include Lifehouse, Live, Collective Soul, Push Play, Gavin DeGraw, The Lost Trailers, and Avril Lavigne.

Other attractions included a "retro arcade" featuring video games and pinball machines in the Poland Spring Arena along with local bands performing, inflatable rides, a food court, and the Hell on Wheels BMX Bike Tour.

While attendance numbers for the festival have yet to be released, the official website claims over 15,000 people attended Daughtry's concert on Sunday night.

Attendance on opening day, Saturday, was noticeably lower than the second day of the festival due to severe weather that passed through the Toms River area on Saturday. Sunny skies hovered over the festival with beautiful temperatures and low humidity on the second day, bringing in thousands of patrons.

# Gennady Martirosyan

**Gennady Martirosyan** (born 23 February 1980) is an Armenian professional boxer. He held the WBO European middleweight title, as well as being a contender for the WBO World middleweight title, losing against Dmitry Pirog.

## Pro

Martirosyans debut came on 30 September 2005. In November 2008, 15 fights and 14 wins later, he won his first title match, beating Alexey Chirkov for the Vacant Russian Middleweight title in Saint Petersburg.

In his next fight, on 20 February 2009, Martirosyan knocked out Thailand's Kiatchai Singwancha for the PABA middleweight title. In April he successfully defended this title with a unanimous decision victory over Vedran Akrap.

on June 27, 2009 he faced his biggest challenge yet in fighting the undefeated future interim champion Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam. After going down in the third round but recovering, Martirosyan was knocked out in the tenth round and registered his second defeat.

Back in St Petersburg and a recovery win later, Martirosyan fought for the vacant WBO European middleweight title. He was successful, on October 31, 2009 he stopped Miguel Angel Pena by 5th-round TKO.

Martirosyan spent 2010 defending his title. After knockout wins over Aziz Daari and Vitor Sa, he became WBOs number one ranked middleweight contender.

## History

### WFJL-FM

**WFJL** – (standing for **F**rank **J**. **L**ewis) went on the air on May 22, 1949. WFJL operated as a non-commercial station by Lewis College of Science and Technology (previous name of Lewis College, now Lewis University). The station's license was cancelled in 1956. WFJL, under the leadership of Roman Catholic Auxiliary Bishop Most Rev. Bernard J. Sheil, D.D., of the Archdiocese of Chicago and general manager Jerry Keefe, radio format consisted of religious, educational, news, talk, and CYO Boxing. WFJL's facilities were located at the Lincoln Tower Building, 75 East Wacker Drive in Chicago, 600 feet (180 m) above ground and had an effective radiated power of 29,000 watts. The station was sold to Louis Lee and call letters were changed to WSBC-FM.

### WSBC-FM

The station began broadcasting March 15, 1960, holding the call sign WSBC-FM. The station's studios and transmitter were located at the West Town State Bank Building at 2400 W. Madison in Chicago, and it had an ERP of 27,500 watts. WSBC-FM featured a variety of musical programming, including classical, jazz, folk, and popular music shows, and simulcast some of the ethnic programming of its sister station 1240 WSBC, when the shared time station was on the air. The station was owned by Louie Lee. In 1962, its ERP was increased to 55,000 watts.

### WXRT

In 1963, the station's call sign was changed to WXRT. The station increasingly aired ethnic programming. In 1971, WXRT's studios and transmitter were moved to 4949 West Belmont Ave., where it operated with an ERP of 50,000 watts at a HAAT of 500 feet. In 1981, the station's transmitter was moved to the John Hancock Center.

The format as it exists today began in August 1972 as a nighttime-only freeform rock experiment, while a variety of ethnic programming continued to air during the daytime hours. The part-time progressive rock format was started by Don Bridges, who soon brought in Mitch Michaels and a bit later John Platt, Seth Mason, and Bob Schulman. Norm Winer served as program director from 1979 through 2016. Greg Solk was named program director in 2017. Laura Duncan joined as Program Director in 2021.

The format's hours were gradually expanded, and on April 26, 1976, it began airing 24 hours a day. The station was branded "Chicago's Fine Rock Station" and later "Chicago's Finest Rock". In the 1980s, the station heavily played music from the new wave, synthpop, and alternative rock groups of that era. By the 1990s, the station's format was considered adult album alternative. The station's offices and studios were located at 4949 West Belmont Ave. on the northwest side of Chicago until 2008, when it was relocated to the NBC Tower in downtown Chicago. On March 16, 2010, it was again relocated to the Prudential Plaza.

In 1995, Danny Lee, son of the station's original owner Louie Lee, sold the station to Westinghouse for $44 million. Shortly thereafter, Westinghouse would acquire CBS and Infinity Radio, with the company changing its name to CBS Corp. The Infinity name was retained for its radio division. CBS and Viacom would merge in 2000. In December 2005, Infinity Radio officially became CBS Radio in anticipation of the CBS/Viacom split up.

On February 2, 2017, CBS Radio announced it would merge with Entercom. The merger was approved on November 9, 2017, and was consummated on November 17.

#### April Fools' jokes

WXRT has performed numerous April Fools' Day jokes, dating back to the 1970s. In 1982, the station promoted "Mayor Jane Byrne April Fool Fest" on Navy Pier, promising live performances by multiple artists, some of whom were dead. Hundreds of people showed up to the then derelict and padlocked Navy Pier, believing that the festival was real.

In 1998, WXRT stated that it was now a subsidiary of Playboy Enterprises. The station said it was now "True Adult Radio", and that its call sign was changed to WXXXRT.

title: Nord Lead

abstract: The Nord Lead is a series of virtual analog subtractive synthesizers, manufactured by Clavia. Released in 1995, the original Nord Lead was the digital synthesizer that made the term virtual analog synthesis popular. The now widely accepted term "virtual analog", was first coined by Clavia with the release of the Nord Lead. This synthesizer was distinctive for its red coloration, knob-laden surface and unique pitch-stick and modulation wheel. After the Nord Lead, several updates followed suit; such as the Nord Lead 2, Nord Lead 3, and Nord Lead 2X.

# Nord Lead

The **Nord Lead** is a series of virtual analog subtractive synthesizers, manufactured by Clavia.

Released in 1995, the original Nord Lead was the digital synthesizer that made the term *virtual analog synthesis* popular. The now widely accepted term "virtual analog", was first coined by Clavia with the release of the Nord Lead. This synthesizer was distinctive for its red coloration, knob-laden surface and unique pitch-stick and modulation wheel. After the Nord Lead, several updates followed suit; such as the Nord Lead 2, Nord Lead 3, and Nord Lead 2X.

## Models

### Nord Lead

The first Nord Lead was released in 1995 to positive reviews. It was created with the help of Peter Jubel, who also co-founded Propellerhead Software. Compared to synthesizers being constructed via analog components, the Nord Lead uses digital signal processors (DSPs) programmed to emulate both Subtractive and analogue FM synthesis (cross-modulation) to reproduce the warmth and richness of a traditional analog sound. The Nord Lead was also unusual for its time in being "covered in knobs", which gave the player a direct access to all sound parameters without having to walk through editing menus.

The Nord Lead featured four notes of polyphony. A later hardware upgrade increased the polyphony to twelve voices. The expansion also added PCMCIA card storage of patches and a drum map feature.

### Nord Lead 2

The Clavia Nord Lead 2 was launched in 1997, two years after the production of the original Nord Lead. It updated the polyphony from four to 16 voices. Also added were a ring modulator, OSC 1 sync-able with the white noise generator, Sine waveform added for OSC 1, increased LFO and arpeggiator waveforms and patterns, filter distortion and 4 individual outputs. Patch storage was also increased. A PCMCIA storage slot was also added.

### Nord Lead 3

The Nord Lead 3 was a more advanced version introduced in 2001, with many new features like 4 operator FM Synthesis (Sinus Modulation), and an arpeggiator. The most visible new feature was replacing all the control knobs with endless rotary knobs surrounded by a lighted indicating collar to show the current setting. The Nord Lead 3 was however much more expensive than the Nord Lead 2, so the Nord Lead 2 and later Nord Lead 2X was sold in parallel to this flagship product. The Nord Lead 3 was discontinued in 2007, leaving the Nord Lead 2X the only remaining product in the Nord Lead series.

### Nord Lead 2X

Nord Lead 2X

In 2003 Clavia introduced the 2X, a refresh of the Nord Lead 2. It included increased polyphony (20 voice), high-resolution 24-bit 96 kHz DACs, and vastly expanded patch memory. The PCMCIA patch storage was removed. The 2X retains the synthesis engine of its predecessor and consequently its sound characteristics.

#### Nord Lead 2X Anniversary Edition

In 2008, Clavia released a special limited edition of the Lead 2X with inverted key colors (black keys and white sharps/flats) and special logos to commemorate the 25-year history of the Clavia company. Each unit (of only 300) came with an individually numbered certificate.

### Nord Lead 4

Nord Lead 4

In 2013 Clavia announced the Nord Lead 4 at the annual Musikmesse show in Germany. The new variant boasts an updated sound engine, new filter sections and a "True Voice Unison" mode which can support up to 4 oscillators simultaneously. Furthermore, similar to the Nord Wave, the Lead 4 has a dedicated FX section featuring reverb, delay, crush and distortion. The ability to quickly edit sounds whilst performing live is made possible as a result of the new "variation" controls in which the user can map up to 7 control parameters per program. Also similar to the Nord Wave, the Lead 4 supports MIDI I/O over USB 2.0.

### Nord Lead A1

Nord Lead A1

At the 2014 NAMM Show, Clavia announced the Nord Lead A1. The model attempts to make the Nord Lead line accessible to a wider user base, with a new oscillator interface and numerous enhancements intended to facilitate quick and creative sound design.

# Penn Township, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania

**Penn Township** was a township that was located in Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. The township ceased to exist and was incorporated into the City of Philadelphia following the passage of the Act of Consolidation, 1854.

## History

Penn Township was formed from the western portion of the Northern Liberties Township by order of the Court of Quarter Sessions in the year 1807. It was north of Vine Street, bounded on the east by 6th Street to the intersection of the road to Germantown. From there, it proceeds north by west to the foot of Logan's Hill, southwest to the township line road along the same to a point a short distance above Manheim Lane, then over in a southwest direction to the Schuylkill River, and down the same to Vine Street. Its greatest length was four miles; its greatest width was three miles; and it comprised 7,680 acres. (31 km2).

The districts of Spring Garden and Penn were created out of this township, and it included portions of Rising Sun and Nicetown and Fort St. Davids, after which it is called Falls Village. It was traversed in a northwestern direction by the Ridge Avenue, from 9th and Vine streets, and northeastwardly from the Schuylkill, between Fairmount and Lemon Hill, by Farmers’ Lane, which ran into the Germantown Road, and by Nicetown Lane, from the Ridge Road below the Falls, and over to Nicetown, Germantown, and beyond.

# Vestskoven

**Vestskoven** (lit. "The West Forrest") is a 13 km2 forest located in the western suburbs of Copenhagen, Denmark.

## History

Vestskoven was established in the late 1960s to provide easy access to recreational areas for the rapidly growing population of Copenhagen's western suburbs in accordance with the Finger Plan. The area was landscaped with artificial hills and lakes. The first trees were planted in 1967.

## Topography

Herstedhøje is a group of artificial hills located just north of Herstedøster in Albertslund Municipality. It rises to 67 metres or 3035 metres above the surrounding countryside. Oxbjerget is an artificial hill situated just north of Hvissinge in Glostrup Municipality in the easternmost part of Vestskoven. Its highest point is 35 metres and it rises approximately 15 metres above the surrounding terrain. It is located in a fenced part of the forest where unleashed dogs are permitted.

Store Vejleådal in the westernmost part of Vestskoven is grazed by cattle. Vestskoven contains two boglands. Harrestrup Mose is located on the north side of the forest. Harrestrup Å originates in the area. The other bog is Porsemosen in the western part of the forest.

## Landmarks

### Herstedøster and Risby

Vestskoven contains the two villages Herstedøster and Risby. Herstedøster Church dates from the 12th century although its Late Gothic was not built until the 15th century. Risby is most known for its film studios.

### Kroppedal and Observatorium Tusculanum

Kroppedal at Vridsløsemagle in the western part of Vestskoven was converted into a local historic museum by Albertslund Municipality in 2002. It contains a permanent exhibition about Ole Rømer and special exhibitions about astronomy and local history. Rømer had operated an astronomic observatory nearby. It was called Observatorium Tusculanum but has been demolished and little remains today. A bronze statue by Ludvig Brandstrup now stands at the site. It was originally located in Copenhagen.

### Viking village

A reconstruction of a Viking village is located at Store Vejleådal in the western part of Vestskoven. It consists of a communal building, a few houses and a pigs' stable. A reconstruction of a Viking road and bridge across Store Vejleådal is planned.

### Hvissinge Stone

The Hvissinge Stone, a Glacial erratic, is the largest stone on the island of Zealand. It measures 5×6×3.5 m and weighs 250,000 kilos.

title: Nord Nord Mord

abstract: Nord Nord Mord is a 2011 German crime film series produced by ZDF. From 2011 until 2018, Robert Atzorn played the role of Chief Inspector Theo Clüver in the first eight episodes. His successor was Peter Heinrich Brix as Commissioner Carl Sievers.

# Nord Nord Mord

***Nord Nord Mord*** is a 2011 German crime film series produced by ZDF. From 2011 until 2018, Robert Atzorn played the role of Chief Inspector Theo Clüver in the first eight episodes. His successor was Peter Heinrich Brix as Commissioner Carl Sievers.

## Plot

At the Sylt detective agency, the edgy chief inspector Theo Clüver is more inclined to solve cases with empathy, patience and instinct rather than using modern investigative methods. His colleague, Ina Behrendsen, approaches the cases objectively, austerely and without emotion, while Hinnerk Feldmann, who comes from the Baltic Sea, stands out with his know-it-all attitude.

After Clüver's (Atzorn's) retirement, his position was taken over by the rather reserved and uncommunicative chief inspector Carl Sievers, who was transferred from Kiel to Sylt and combines a professional approach with an alert mind. However, he seems to be also carrying a health burden.

## Cast

Leading actor Robert Atzorn left the series at his own request after the eighth episode, *Clüver und der leise Tod*. His successor was Peter Heinrich Brix.

## Reception

In the *Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung*, the journalist Michael Hanfeld judged the film series on December 20, 2021 (the 16th episode's first broadcast) as exemplary for the television films shown on German public television. The films in the series predominantly gave the impression of “a crime series in the Rosamunde Pilcher style, full of clichés, predictable in plot and character development, with subtle dialogue jokes and a soft pop soundtrack \[...\], a classic example of the solid television film escapism that is in the program of ARD and ZDF plays a major role.”

## Running gags

In addition to humorous elements of the series, a running gag is that the photo collection of suspects (used in order to find the complete picture) is not stuck on a board, but stuck directly on the wall on the green screen and written on. After the case is solved, the wall can be seen being repainted.

# Hospital Ship (TV series)

***Hospital Ship*** (Korean: 병원선; RR: *Byeong-wonseon*) is a South Korean television series starring Ha Ji-won and Kang Min-hyuk. The series is directed by Park Jae-bum and written by screenwriter Yoon Sun-joo. It aired on MBC every Wednesday and Thursday at 22:00 (KST) and started on August 30, 2017.

## Plot

The story is about a group of young doctors who provide medical care to the locals who live in rural villages via a hospital ship that sails around the little islands.

Song Eun Jae is an immensely talented surgeon. There was a time when the hospital ship was just used for standard checkups and administering medicine. With Song Eun Jae on board, it can provide complicated surgery. She has seen a lot of success as a surgeon, but also a lot of struggles in her family life. When an unfortunate incident leads her to a ship instead of a prestigious hospital, she has little compassion for the stubborn elderly patients.

Kwak Hyun is the emotional opposite of his senior doctor, Song Eun Jae. Growing up with a father who is a lauded humanitarian, Kwak Hyun strives to be a warm and caring person. He heals not just with medicine but a smile. It seems natural that he works at his father's ship, but Kwak Hyun also has some emotional scars. He cannot match Song Eun Jae's medical skills, but he is infinitely better at connecting with patients.

Kim Jae Geol has Hallyu looks and an extensive lineage in medicine. His father is a respected doctor. Growing up, his dad always preferred his brilliant brother, which led Jae Geol to become a loner at heart. His father was obsessed with western medicine. As a form of rebellion, Kim Jae Gol studied oriental medicine, much to his father's disapproval. His goal in boarding the ship was to escape his father's shadow. At the ship, however, he must work under Song Eun Jae, who is just as strict, emotionless and disdainful of oriental medicine.

Now, these three doctors have to put aside their polar opposite personalities in order to treat their patients. As they all soon learn, working for your fellow humans has its own way of bringing people together.

# New York Law Revision Commission

The **New York State Law Revision Commission** is the oldest continuous agency in the common law world devoted to law reform through legislation.

The Law Revision Commission was created by Chapter 597 of the Laws of 1934 which enacted Article 4-A of the Legislative Law. The Commission is charged by statute with the following duties:

> * To examine the common law and statutes of the State and current judicial decisions for the purpose of discovering defects and anachronisms in the law and recommending needed reforms.
> * To receive and consider proposed changes in the law recommended by the American Law Institute, the commissioners for the promotion of uniformity of legislation in the United States, any bar association or other learned bodies.
> * To receive and consider suggestions from judges, justices, public officials, lawyers and the public generally as to defects and anachronisms in the law.
> * To recommend, from time to time, such changes in the law as it deems necessary to modify or eliminate antiquated and inequitable rules of law, and to bring the law of this state, civil and criminal, into harmony with modern conditions.

## Reports

From 1934 to 1970 the Reports of the Law Revision Commission were published in the *Law Revisions Commission Reports*. From 1950 to 1970 the basic Commission Report to the legislature was also published in *McKinney's Session Laws*, while the Commissions' studies on possible legislation were published separately. Since 1970 the whole report has been published in *McKinney's Session Laws*.

# L. D. Esty

**Lee Dill Esty** (August 19, 1875 - July 23, 1943) was an early Arts and Crafts movement architect. He worked with the Berkeley Craftsmen practitioners and has many important projects in Santa Cruz, California, among them the Mission Santa Cruz restoration.

## Pogonip

Esty's Pogonip Clubhouse in Pogonip Park is on the National Register of Historic Places. The exterior of the clubhouse was a shooting location for the 1987 film *The Lost Boys*.

## Houghton House

His father-in-law A D Houghton was architect and engineer for John D. Rockefeller. Houghton's house sat on over 100 acres (0.40 km2) of land at the tip of Soquel Pt. Now known as Pleasure Point, Santa Cruz, California It was noted as a beautiful home when it burned in 1915.

## Pleasure Point roadhouse

The Roadhouse and the Houghton house have many visual similarities. Historians believe that the Pleasure Point roadhouse is an Esty. (1.2) This century old home, with the visual clues and the proximity of this site to Esty/Houghton home, leads historians to this connection. (see Ross)

The Pogonip Clubhouse and the Pleasure Point roadhouse also have many similarities. Both are Brown Shingle construction in Natural settings. Very striking is the visual connection between the back of the Clubhouse and the side of the Roadhouse.

## Arts and crafts influence

The Roadhouse pre-dates the American Craftsman style, yet contains many of the elements that are found in it.

From the flared "Oriental" eves, to the "clinker" brick fireplace. The use of natural redwood shingles and the windows to take in the light and warmth. The interior wainscoting and the hardwood floors which were covered with oriental rugs. The placement of the house and its longer western wall, take advantage of the natural oceans setting. The placement is above a natural cove that was accessed by stairs to the beach below.

The Roadhouse maybe the trend setter that led to the Craftsman shingle style Berkeley style made well known by Julia Morgan, Bernard Maybeck and Greene and Greene. It reflects many of the concepts found in The Simple Home, Charles Keeler, 1906 a great influence on the American Craftsman School.

## Esty and the arts and crafts movement

Esty went on, in 1931, to work with C. J. Ryland. A former employee of Julia Morgan. Esty went on to rebuild the Santa Cruz Mission and to build the City Halls in Santa Cruz and Monterey, California.
