# Palo Verde Valley

The **Palo Verde Valley** (Spanish: *Valle de Palo Verde*) is located in the Lower Colorado River Valley, next to the eastern border of Southern California with Arizona, United States. It is located on the Colorado Desert within the Sonoran Desert south of the Parker Valley. Most of the valley is in Riverside County, with the southern remainder in Imperial County. La Paz County borders to the east on the Colorado River.

The region is the ancestral home of several Native American tribes: the Quechan, the Chemehuevi and Matxalycadom or Halchidhoma, some who have Indian reservations in California and Arizona along the Colorado and Gila Rivers today.

## Geography

The Palo Verde Valley is part of the Sonoran Desert's Colorado Desert. The Big Maria Mountains are north of the valley, and the Colorado River forms the valley's boundaries to the east and south. Other mountains nearby are the McCoy Mountains to the west (north in Interstate 10), the Chocolate Mountains to the south, the Little Maria Mountains to the northwest, and the Dome Rock Mountains to the east.

## Features

Agriculture is the valley's most important industry since indigenous farming. Crops include melons, alfalfa, cotton and vegetables. The Palo Verde Irrigation District (PVID), with its water sourced from the Palo Verde Diversion Dam, controls the canal system for these fields. Dating back to Thomas Henry Blythe's filing in 1877, the PVID has the most senior Colorado River water rights of any California agency.

The city of Blythe is in the center of the Palo Verde Valley and is the only incorporated community. Other communities include Mesa Verde, Ripley, and Palo Verde. Across the Colorado from the southern edge of the Palo Verde Valley is Cibola Valley.

### Water transfers to MWD

In a 2005 agreement, Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) negotiated with PVID in Blythe to fallow, or idle, farm land for 35 years. The deal will transfer water that would have been used for farming in the area of Blythe, Ripley and Palo Verde to MWD.

According to a 1990 pilot study, water diversions and fallowed farm land reduced farming employment. The MWD provided $6 million in a development fund to reimburse the community for losses caused by shifting water to urban areas.

California currently uses more than its allotted share of water from the Colorado River. The transfer agreement also seeks to address over-use of river water. It is partly designed to reduce overall diversions from the river.

In 2015, MWD purchased more than 12,000 acres (4,900 hectares) in the valley in addition to 9,000 acres (3,600 hectares) owned as of 2004, and is now PVID's biggest landowner. The Irvine Ranch Water District also purchased 3,100 acres (1,300 hectares). On August 4, 2017, PVID filed a lawsuit against MWD over the latter's most recent land purchase and six land leases, which was accused of illegally obtaining water rights.

## Transportation

Interstate 10 goes through the Palo Verde Valley in an east-west direction across Blythe. US Route 95 goes through the northeastern part of the Valley. California State Route 78's northern terminus is near the valley's western edge from Interstate 10.

The Blythe Airport is west of the valley.

Rail transportation by the Arizona and California Railroad served the valley until 2007.

Public transportation, by bus is operated by Palo Verde Valley Transit Agency, which offers lifeline service to the Coachella valley. FlixBus and Greyhound Lines also serve the community of Blythe on their routes between Los Angeles and Phoenix.

# Lloyd Dean House

The **Lloyd Dean House** is a historic house located at 164 Dean Street in Taunton, Massachusetts.

## Description and history

It was built in 1825 in a transitional Greek Revival/Federal style. The property was later owned by Dr. J.W. Hayward.

The five bay wide, 1+12-story cottage originally contained clapboard siding with operating wooden shutters and a central doorway with molded wooden trim and a large leaded transom with sidelights. It also had two symmetrical end chimneys.

However, then house has since been significantly altered, with vinyl siding added and the original doors, windows, shutters replaced. The chimneys have been removed and second floor dormers have also been added and the rear roofline raised to a salt box. The central doorway has been modified with a large projecting pediment. It is now occupied by a dental office.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 5, 1984.

title: Palma Ceia

abstract: Palma Ceia is a neighborhood located southwest of downtown Tampa, Florida in South Tampa. It is bounded by Miguel Street West of MacDill Avenue and Neptune Street East of MacDill Avenue to the north; Bay to Bay Boulevard from Dale Mabry to Himes and El Prado between Himes and the Crosstown Expressway to the south; MacDill Avenue between Neptune and San Miguel, Dale Mabry Highway between San Miguel and Bay to Bay and Himes between Bay to Bay and El Prado to the west; and the Lee Roy Selmon Expressway to the east. The street names throughout Palma Ceia are of Cuban origin, coming from streets in the old section of Havana. Historians say the most likely explanation is that Angel Cuesta, president of Cuesta-Rey cigars, shared a map of Havana with developer Thomas Palmer while discussing the area. Palma Ceia is home to the appropriately named Palma Ceia Country Club and also located adjacent to the exclusive Golfview community. The neighborhood is within the district of Henry B. Plant High School. Aesthetically it is most known for its bricked streets, akin to those in Ybor City. The neighborhood is home to the Palma Ceia Design District, centered on the intersection of MacDill Ave. and Bay to Bay Blvd. This district contains many specialty boutiques and cafes, including some of the highest rated in the city. It is a half-mile walk from Bayshore Boulevard. A sculpture by local artist Marc DeWaele was erected at the Macdill and Bay to Bay intersection to officially designate the district. Its ribbon cutting was March 17, 2010.

# Orange Park Christian Academy

**Orange Park Christian Academy** (OPCA) was a private Christian school in Orange Park, Florida, United States. It served students in kindergarten through grade 12 from 1981 to January 2008.

## Future use of land

In early 2009, a collaboration of distinguished alumni attempted to split the land upon which the Orange Park Christian Academy formerly sat into two adjacent tracts. One tract was to be developed into a "full service entertainment complex." The other was to become a "novelty store." The entrepreneurs expected heavy traffic at both of these businesses from the residents at the geriatric center next door and the people of the surrounding community. The development plan, however, has ground to a halt because of zoning issues at the planning department in Green Cove Springs.

## History

Orange Park Christian Academy opened in 1981, associated with the Orange Park Assembly of God church.

In December 2007, the school's impending closure was announced. The school officially closed on January 15, 2008.

## Extracurricular activities

The Orange Park Christian Lions competed in Florida High School Athletic Association-sanctioned competition until the 2007–08 school year. They were classified in the FHSAA as Section 1, Division 8. In their last year as an FHSAA member school, they fielded teams in boys' and girls' basketball, boys' soccer, and girls' volleyball.

For many years, Orange Park Christian Academy shared a heated rivalry with First Coast Christian School of Jacksonville, Florida.

# Paul A. Toth

**Paul A. Toth** (born 1964) is an American novelist and short story writer. He is the author of four novels, *Fizz* (Bleak House Books, 2004), *Fishnet* (Bleak House Books, 2005), *Finale* (Raw Dog Screaming Press, 2009), and *Airplane Novel*  (Raw Dog Screaming Press, 2011). His work has appeared in numerous publications and websites.

## Biography

Toth was born in 1964 in Flint, Michigan and has lived in Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., Denver, and Sarasota, Florida. He has an MA in Communication and Leadership.

## Early work

Toth's early work consists of short stories, over 150 of which have been published. Themes include the persistence of self-doubt regarding identity, a sense of being lost amongst objects, and a clutching for reality that almost always fails. Toth's short stories, as well as his nonfiction, poetry, and multimedia work, can be accessed via his web portal.

## Novels

*Fizz*, *Fishnet* and *Finale* comprise a nonchronlogical trilogy, each volume considering identity in the shadow of unwitting self-deception.

*Airplane Novel* reframes the "events of 9/11" from the perspective of the South Tower, which creates an inside-out viewpoint otherwise beyond knowledge.

In his review, *New York Times* and *Newsweek* journalist Dan Newland wrote, "*Airplane Novel* is, without a doubt, the most extraordinary of all books published to date on the destruction by terrorists of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. His book tells a truly intimate inside story of the rise and fall of the Twin Towers that cuts through the hype and emotive rhetoric...Objective, clear-headed and big-picture focused, this is a book that will change the outlook of many a reader regarding the 9/11 tragedy."

# Tsuyama Domain

class=notpageimage|Location of Tsuyama CastleTsuyama Domain (Japan)

**Tsuyama Domain** (津山藩, *Tsuyama-han*) was a feudal domain under the Tokugawa shogunate of Edo period Japan, in what is now northern Okayama Prefecture. It controlled most of Mimasaka Province and was centered around Tsuyama Castle. It was ruled in its early history by a branch of the Mori clan, and later by a branch of the Matsudaira clan. Tsuyama Domain was dissolved in the abolition of the han system in 1871 and is now part of Okayama Prefecture.

## History

In 1600, after the Battle of Sekigahara, Mimasaka Province was ruled by Kobayakawa Hideaki, the *daimyō* of Okayama Domain. However, his domain was abolished due to attainder on his death without heir in 1602. In 1603, the Tokugawa shogunate appointed Mori Tadamasa, the son of Mori Yoshinari of Kawanakajima Domain in Shinano Province and the younger brother of Oda Nobunaga's page Mori Ranmaru, to the newly created Tsuyama Domain with a *kokudaka* of 186,000 *koku*. He changed the name of the area, which was originally called Tsuruyama (鶴山) to "Tsuyama", began construction of Tsuyama Castle in 1604 and completed the layout of his castle town by 1616. In 1697, his 5th generation successor Mori Sugutoshi went insane in Ise Province on his way to Edo to fulfill his *sankin kōtai* duties. The "madness" may have been an excuse, as Sugutoshi had been in charge of constructing dog kennels outside Edo as part of Shogun Tokugawa Tsunayoshi's highly unpopular and ridiculed law against cruelty to animal and Sugutoshi reportedly fell into a rage on hearing that a *ronin* had broken into the kennel, slaughtering many dogs, which had resulted in the shogunate ordering the execution of a number of his retainers for negligence.

The domain was reduced to 100,000 *koku*, and transferred to a branch of the Echizen-Matsudaira clan whose ancestor was Yūki Hideyasu. In 1721, the second *daimyō*, Matsudaira Asagoro died at the age of 11 without heir. The shogunate agreed to allow a younger son of the *daimyō* of Shirakawa Nitta Domain to be posthumously adopted to secure the succession, but the *kokudaka* of the domain was halved to 50,000 *koku*. The prestige and also the ability of the domain to support its retainers was thus severely restricted, and the domain thereafter suffered from political and economic instability and frequent peasant uprisings. In 1765, the 5th *daimyō*, Matsudaira Yasuchika, opened a han school, the Kakuzankan (鶴山館), which lasted into the early Meiji period. The domain managed to restore its status to 100,000 *koku* when the 7th *daimyō*, Matsudaira Naritaka, adopted the 14th son of Shogun Tokugawa Ienari as his heir.Matsudaira Naritami was very active in the affairs of the Tokugawa family after 1868. Naritami was also known as Matsudaira Kakudō.

In the Bakumatsu period, the domain produced a number of doctors and *rangaku* scholars, including diplomat and legal scholar Tsuda Mamichi and future Prime Minister Hiranuma Kiichiro. In 1871, the domain became Tsuyama Prefecture due to the abolition of the han system. It was later incorporated into Okayama Prefecture via Hōjō Prefecture.

## Holdings at the end of the Edo period

As with most domains in the han system, Tsuyama Domain consisted of several discontinuous territories calculated to provide the assigned *kokudaka*, based on periodic cadastral surveys and projected agricultural yields, g.

* Mimasaka Province
    + 22 villages in Higashinanjō District
    + 3 villages in Aida District
    + 7 villages in Yoshino District
    + 45 villages in Shōnan District
    + 10 villages in Katsuhoku District
    + 26 villages in Nishisaijō District
    + 25 villages in Nishihōjō District
    + 25 villages in Tohokujō District
    + 10 villages in Kumehōjō District
    + 32 villages in Oba District

In addition to the above, Tsuyama was in charge of administration of *tenryō* territories in Mimasaka: 7 villages in Tohokujō District, 27 villages in Oba District, and 32 villages in Saijō District.

# Paul Dixon Show

The ***Paul Dixon Show*** was an American television variety program originating in Cincinnati on WLWT Television beginning in 1955 and ending in December 1974, following Dixon's death. The show began as a 30-minute series expanding to 90 minutes in the 1960s, but the other stations along the Crosley/Avco regional television network in nearby Dayton, Columbus and Indianapolis only ran 60 minutes of the show. Pre-recorded episodes were sold to other markets throughout the Midwest.

The show was originally co-hosted by Bonnie Lou and Marian Spelman, who was later replaced by Colleen Sharp. The house band, originally called The Bel-Aires, was led by pianist Bruce Brownfield.

## Early beginnings

Dixon originally hosted a show on rival station WCPO-TV with Dottie Mack and Wanda Lewis called *Paul Dixon's Song Shop*. The show consisted of Dixon, Mack, and Lewis pantomiming to popular songs of the day, and also featured in-studio commercials. Fresh from a career in radio news, Dixon quickly endeared himself to countless viewers for years to come. *Song Shop* was picked up for a season by ABC in 1951 and by the DuMont Television Network in 1954. For the DuMont show he moved to New York City, but as DuMont began to collapse in 1955, a homesick Dixon returned to Cincinnati a year later and, in a fateful move, hired on at WLWT.

While Dixon was at WCPO, Al Lewis (rapidly gaining fame in his own right as Uncle Al) was in charge of set design and artwork on Dixon's show. After Dixon moved to WLWT, *The Paul Dixon Show* and *The Uncle Al Show* would run against each other on weekday mornings.

## ”This Dumb Show”

By 1955, Dixon started working at WLWT to host a daytime show originally geared to housewives, but that ultimately appealed to people from all walks of life. Over time, Dixon himself would refer to the program, in a self-deprecating fashion, as "this dumb show". Every morning the show would start with Paul using a pair of binoculars *(one of what would become many of Dixon’s trademarks)* to examine what came to be called “**Kneesville**”, which consisted of women sitting in the front row, all wearing either short skirts or “hot pants”. He would then award who he believed had the best-looking knees by either putting a garter on the woman's leg, or attaching a "knee tickler" to the hem of her skirt.

Some of his other trademarks included, but were not limited to:

* **His nickname**. Everyone who knew Dixon or watched his show took to calling him **"Paul Baby"**. *(Dixon acquired the nickname from a prop boy, Al Bischof, who replied to a request by Dixon saying, "Okay, Paul Baby!" The nickname stuck with Dixon for the rest of his life.)*
* A **spray bottle**, used to spritz the audience upon asking how many of them took a bath that morning, which was usually a segue into a commercial for bath soap.
* Dixon would strike a "**runway pose**" during a shampoo or hair care commercial *(or some instance that might require him to take off his jacket)*, and the band played the first few bars of *A Pretty Girl is Like A Melody*.
* By the 1970s, Dixon had started giving **T-shirts** to women in the audience, with Dixon physically putting them on the women himself, doing it in such a way that would work itself into an embrace between the two.
* On almost every show, Dixon would give an Osherwicz Kosher **Salami** to at least one member of the audience *(usually a woman)* after chatting with him or her or when he or she gave him a gift. *(David Letterman would later incorporate a variation of this into his own show, instead giving canned hams to people in the audience for their participation in a skit.)*
* At the mere mention of the word "letters" *(referring to **fan mail**)*, Bruce Brownfield and the Band played a quick rendition of the song *I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself A Letter*.

Despite the fact that Dixon performed basically the same routine every day, viewers would continually watch his show, many of them admitting, often with varying degrees of embarrassment, that they were "hooked" on "Paul Baby."

Guest appearances by celebrities were a rarity at best. Among those who did make appearances were comedian Imogene Coca, actor David McCallum, Senator Robert F. Kennedy, and even Bob Hope, who was a close friend of Dixon and who wrote the foreword for Dixon's first book *Paul Baby*.

### Classic moments

Besides in-studio commercials, a musical number from the house band, a song each from Colleen and Bonnie, and occasionally a song from Dixon himself, who swore he couldn't sing to save his own life, the show primarily consisted of Paul talking with members of his audience, or reading letters from his viewers, both of which often resulted in hilarious situations:

* On the day of the "Chicken Wedding" (see below), a woman in the audience told Dixon about her female neighbor's TV set having broken the night before. Her husband, who worked nights, got home in time to watch Dixon's show, so she wanted to tell him right then and there to go next door to invite her neighbor over so the two could watch the show together; she finished by telling them, still on the air, to “be good and be careful”.
* Dixon once read a letter on the air from a farmer in Arkansas who had gotten “hooked” on the show while sick in bed. According to the letter, the farmer's illness had been brought on by bad whiskey; his wife had also gotten hooked shortly afterward. When Dixon called the farmer and talked to him live on the air, he asked Dixon to send him one of the T-shirts he gave to the women on his show so he could put it on his wife. The farmer later made an in-person appearance on the show.
* On Crosley/Avco upper management suggestion, Dixon held a "Mystery Voice Contest", in which he would call a number selected at random from the phone book. If there was an answer on the other end, Dixon played a pre-recorded voice for him or her to identify, with the contestant winning a large prize if correct. The first voice was Ralph Lazarus, then-CEO of the Cincinnati-based Federated Department Stores. After a huge promotion and buildup to the first day of the contest, the very first contestant Dixon called and played the voice for- keep in mind that the number was chosen at random, immediately guessed Ralph Lazarus. In disbelief, Dixon asked how the player, a woman, could possibly have known Lazarus' voice; she laughingly replied she used to be his private secretary.
* In the early 1950s, when Dixon's producer John Smith contracted polio, Dixon started a campaign for Smith to receive get-well cards and over the course of a year, Smith received thousands of cards from across the country. Unfortunately, Smith died from polio complications in 1954.

While Dixon's antics by today's standards might be construed as chauvinistic or even over-the-top sexist, there was an unspoken understanding between Dixon and his audience, both in-studio and at home, that he was only seeking the laughs and cheers that the antics generated. Dixon was happily married with two children.

David Letterman credits Paul Dixon for inspiring his choice of career as a talk-show host. Letterman frequently viewed the show as a youngster on Crosley/Avco Indianapolis station WLWI, where he later began his professional broadcasting career in the 1970s.

### Dixon's pet expressions

* **"This is the most beautiful, youngest group we've ever had on this television show!"**
*(usually said right before grabbing his binoculars to check out Kneesville)*
* **"Hold it, we've got a live one here, Gordy!"**
*(referring to someone in the audience who had something to say to Dixon. "Gordy" was the nickname of director Gordon Waltz)*
* *(singing)* **"...and the angels lit the candles!"**
* **"Isn't this the dumbest television show you ever saw in your life???"**
* **"How come you're not at home watching Uncle Al??"**
*(Dixon sometimes asked this of children who appeared on the show)*

## The "Chicken Wedding"

At one point a fan had sent Dixon a rubber chicken as a souvenir. He began calling the chicken Pauline, using it/her as a prop when he did commercials for the Cincinnati-based Kroger grocery chain, saying "Kroger has a special on chicken", and then invariably tossing it/her over his shoulder. Another fan sent him an additional rubber chicken which Dixon took to calling Harry, who became a "companion" for Pauline. Over time people began to ask if Dixon was going to marry the feathered couple. Dixon was initially against the idea, but as more and more people, including WLWT head John Murphy, continued to ask when he would perform the "Chicken Wedding", Dixon finally capitulated, and in so doing made television history.

On Tuesday, March 11, 1969, Dixon staged the first-ever wedding for two rubber chickens, complete with all the trimmings. The wedding itself was broadcast live on the show, and featured then-WLWT news anchor Tom Atkins narrating and Bob Braun as Best Man, with co-hosts Bonnie Lou and Sharp as matrons of honor. Marian Spelman, still at WLWT appearing on other shows, made a guest appearance singing a humorous version of *A Bird in a Gilded Cage*.

Some people actually stayed home from work and school to watch the "Chicken Wedding" live. It went on to become the highest-rated episode in the show's history, and to this day WLWT receives more requests and questions about this particular episode than any other broadcasts in the station's more than 70 years of history. As recently as 2023, WLWT aired a replay of the episode during the early hours of Christmas morning.

### Live at the Ohio State Fair

Beginning in 1966 on a request from then-Ohio Governor Jim Rhodes, *The Paul Dixon Show* (and other regional shows on the Crosley/Avco network) began making annual visits to the Ohio State Fair, broadcasting their shows live on location. The following year, attendance at the state fair increased by an estimated 1.2 million. The live shows at the fair continued well into the 1970s.

By the end of the 1960s, nearly 600,000 people had been a part of Dixon's studio audience, (by comparison, this figure is roughly twice the 2019 population of Cincinnati proper), and Dixon had given away in excess of 3,000 Osherwicz Kosher Salamis. At the show's peak, there was a two-year waiting list for tickets.

## Sponsors and commercials

Most of the commercials on Dixon's show were performed live by Dixon himself, but also frequently by one of his co-hosts. Dixon shunned the use of scripts when doing commercials, much to the perpetual delight of his audience. In the tradition of Ruth Lyons, any product plugged by Dixon would quickly fly off of local merchants' shelves.

* When Dixon did commercials for Bounty paper towels, he would always mention they were made in Green Bay, Wisconsin, at which point the band would launch into a quick chorus of the Wisconsin Fight Song.
* Dixon was also one of the first to jump on the bandwagon plugging what was then called Pringle's Newfangled Potato Chips, largely because they were invented in Montgomery, Ohio, near Cincinnati. For levity, Bonnie and Colleen often made duck bills out of them.
* In the early 1970s, Dixon was among the first television personalities to sell Orville Redenbacher’s Gourmet Popcorn, based in Indiana. During the commercial, the director would superimpose Redenbacher's face *(as it appeared on the jar)* over Dixon's while he would talk about the product.

# Vera Papisova

**Vera Papisova** (*née* **Papisov**; born May 26, 1990) is a Russian-American journalist. Papisova was the first ever digital wellness features editor at *Teen Vogue,* and covered drug education, gender, identity, mental health, sexual health, sexuality, trauma, and wellness.

## Early life and education

Papisova was born in Russia to father Mikhail Papisov, a research scientist who specializes in molecular bioengineering and cancer drug development, and mother Elena Tokareva, a cardiologist and clinical researcher. Her family emigrated to the United States in 19XX. Papisova grew up in the Boston area. She has a younger sister.

In 2008, Papisova graduated from Winchester High School in Winchester, Massachusetts, where she played doubles on the tennis team, winning the Division 2 state championship and listed as a national champion in the New England region.

In 2013, Papisova graduated from Boston University's College of Communication with a bachelor's degree in journalism.

## Career

While at Boston University, Papisova co-hosted a sex-positive radio show called "Girls’ Night In" with Allie Rosenberg on WTBU and wrote a blog about dating. She also worked at Massachusetts General Hospital, where she was an editor's assistant.

From 2014 to 2016, Papisova worked as a freelance writer. She wrote for Condé Nast's *Teen Vogue,* covering beauty and sexual health as well as for other publications, including Vice Media. From 2015 to 2016, Papisova wrote for Yahoo! Style.

From 2015 to 2016, Papisova worked as a columnist at Slutever.com, writing the column "Ask a Porn Star." She interviewed male and female porn stars about their experiences with sex and dating, working as a sex worker, and on issues relating to sexual health.

In March 2016 *Teen Vogue* editor Phillip Picardi hired Papisova for the newly created position of wellness editor, which also reflected the new launch of the wellness sector of *Teen Vogue.* The wellness vertical is the fastest growing vertical in the history of the *Teen Vogue* brand and features seven official subsections: health, mental health, fitness, nutrition, relationships, spirituality, and sexual health & identity. Papisova's work has been part of the magazine's shift towards social activism and empowerment since the sector was launched.

Papisova also ran the *Teen Vogue* sexual assault awareness campaign with the social media hashtag #NotYourFault. *Not Your Fault* is focused around a series of videos where men and women read about sexual assault and rape. As part of this campaign, Papisova's video series called *Guys Read,* and featured men reading sexist comments made about women and girls, won an American Society of Magazine Editors award.

In April 2018, Papisova attended three days of the 2018 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival in Indio, California to cover a sexual health app that provides verified STD results. During her time at the festival, she interviewed 54 women who had been sexually harassed and sexually assaulted at the festival. Papisova was also sexually harassed and sexually assaulted, saying she was groped 22 times over 10 hours she was at the festival. Papisova published an article about her experience on *Teen Vogue.*

Papisova documented the aftermath of reporting and coming forward about the experience on social media and, when the article came out, discussing the experience in interviews. She said that it illustrates online harassment and the double-victimization that victims of sexual harassment typically face. Responses ranged from asking what Papisova was wearing to slut shaming to getting rape threats and death threats.

## Personal life

While an undergraduate student at Boston University, Papisova worked in restaurant jobs, which she continued to do after graduating and working as a freelance journalist. After his death in June 2018, Papisova said that Anthony Bourdain had seen a busboy sexually harassing her at her job. Bourdain reported it to Papisova's manager, who had up until that point not addressed the issue.

In 2013, while living in Boston and going to college, Papisova witnessed the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing from a nearby rooftop.

Papisova lives in Brooklyn.

She speaks Russian.

title: Tsuyako Kitashima

abstract: Tsuyako "Sox" Kitashima was a Japanese-American activist noted for her role in seeking reparations for Japanese American internment by the United States government during World War II, particularly as investigated by the Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians in the 1980s. Kitashima was born Tsuyako May Kataoka in 1918 in Hayward, California, to Masajiro Kataoka and Yumi Ishimaru, who had emigrated from Yamaguchi Prefecture, Japan and owned a strawberry farm in Eden Township, Alameda County, California. She had five siblings. At school, her classmates were unable to pronounce her name, calling her "Socko" instead; this in time was further shortened to "Sox". Kitashima's family moved from Eden to Centerville, Fresno County, California, where she graduated from Washington Union High School in 1936. Following the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, and signing of Executive Order 9066, Kitashima and her family were among those 120,000 Japanese Americans interned into relocation camps. They were kept in horse stalls at Tanforan, California, and later moved to a single room at Topaz War Relocation Center in Utah. The Kataokas were also moved to Tule Lake while interned. In August 1945, Tsuyako married Tamotsu Kitashima in Salt Lake City, Utah. She later became a spokesperson for the National Coalition for Redress and Reparations, and fought for the Civil Liberties Act of 1988, by which the American government formally apologized and granted reparations to the wartime internees. In 1998, The Freedom Forum awarded her a Free Spirit Award, which came with US$10,000. She has also been recognized by the National Women's History Project as a National Women's History Month/Week honoree. Kitashima died of a heart attack in a care home in San Francisco, California on December 29, 2005, aged 87.

# Vera Pagava

**Vera Pagava** (Georgian: ვერა ფაღავა; February 27, 1907 – March 25, 1988) was a Georgian artist based in Paris.

## Early life

Vera Pagava was born in Tbilisi, Georgia. Her father was a lawyer; her mother was an educator. She moved to Berlin, Germany with her family in 1920, just months before Georgia became part of the Soviet Union. In 1923, they join the Georgian community in exile in France and settle in Montrouge. Vera Pagava studied decorative arts and painting first at the Arts et Publicité School, at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs, then at André Lhote Studio. From 1932 to 1939, she studied under Roger Bissière in the Academie Ranson.

## Career

In 1938 and 1939, Pagava participated to the *Témoignage* group show, initiated by Marcel Michaud. She presented painted fabrics. In 1943, Pagava met the famous gallery owner Jeanne Bucher, who exhibited her paintings alongside Dora Maar's in 1944. Several exhibitions at the Jeanne Bucher gallery will follow, in 1947, 1951, 1954 and 1960.

In the 1950s, Pagava's works are largely presented abroad, in Pittsburgh in 1952 (Pittsburgh International Exhibition of Contemporary Art.), in Brussels in 1953, Norway in 1954 (Oslo, Bergen Trondheim, with Janice Biala and Maria Helena Vieira da Silva), Wuppertal in 1955, Berlin in 1956, Lausanne in 1957, New York at the Meltzer Gallery in 1959.

She created a monumental mural work for the Vatican City pavilion at the Brussels World's Fair in 1958.

In 1966, she represented France at the 33rd Venice Biennale. A room was dedicated to her watercolors.

In 1982 and 1983, a retrospective exhibition is organized in different french museums : Musée des beaux-arts de Dijon (Donation Granville), Musée de Beauvais, Musée Saint-Denis de Reims and Musée des Beaux-Arts de Troyes.

The first retrospective of her work in Georgia was held in 2012 at the Dmitri Schevardnadze National Gallery.

Her work moved from figurative to abstract between the 1930s and the 1960s; she often used geometric forms and warm pale tones and greys in her work. "Vera Pagava susurre, ou presque" (*Vera Pagava whispers, or almost*), commented a critic in 2016. Another critic described her later work as "highly singular, combining formal purity with luminous intimacy."

Pagava's work was included in the 2021 exhibition *Women in Abstraction* at the Centre Pompidou. In 2022, Pagava's work was included in The Guggenheim Museum Bilbao's exhibit: "From Fauvism to Surrealism: Masterpieces from the Musée d’Art Moderne (MAM) de Paris." In 2023 the TBC Concept gallery in Tbilisi held a solo exhibition of Pagava' work entitled *Silent Cities*.

Pagava's works are in the collections of the Musée National d’Art Moderne (MNAM) Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, France, the Musée des Beaux-arts de Dijon (Donation Pierre Granville), Dijon, France, and the Unterlinden Museum, Colmar, France

## Personal life and legacy

In 1979, Pagava's life-time companion, artist "Vano" Ivane Enoukidze, died.

Pagava died in 1988, at Ivry-sur-Seine, aged 81 years. She is buried in Leuville-sur-Orge Cemetery. The "Association culturelle Vera Pagava" was founded in Paris in 1991 to promote and preserve Vera Pagava's work and archives. Her work is part of various private and public collections such as the Pompidou Centre.

# Taft Cardinals

The **Taft Cardinals** were a minor league baseball franchise based in Taft, Texas. In 1938, the Cardinals played as members of the Class D level Texas Valley League in their only season of minor league play, qualifying for the playoffs.

Taft hosted home minor league games at the Taft High School Field.

## History

The Taft Cardinals began minor league play in the 1938 Texas Valley League. After a nine-season hiatus, the 1938 Texas Valley League reformed as a six–team Class D level league, with the Brownsville Charros, Corpus Christi Spudders, Harlingen Hubs, McAllen Packers and Refugio Oilers joining Taft as the league members.

In their opening game, Taft was defeated by the Brownsville Charros by the score of 8–5.

After beginning league play on April 14, 1938, the Cardinals finished the season in third place, qualifying for the Texas Valley League playoffs, in their only season of play. Taft finished the 1938 regular season with a record of 68–67, playing under managers Leroy "Cowboy" Jones and John Morrow. Taft finished 23.5 games behind the first place Corpus Christi Spudders in the final regular season standings. In the 1938 playoffs, the Cardinals lost in first round, as the Harlingen Hubs swept Taft in three games.

Future major league players made an impact for Taft, as Jack Creel led Taft with a 15–7 record and Fats Dantonio hit .324 in 349 at bats for the 1938 Cardinals.

Following the 1938 season, the Texas Valley League permanently folded. Taft, Texas has not hosted another minor league team.

### St. Louis Cardinals non–affiliation

While the 1938 Taft Cardinals franchise is not referenced as being an official affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals, the Taft roster was filled almost exclusively with St. Louis Cardinals' affiliate players and the franchise used the corresponding moniker. On March 23, 1938, the St. Louis Cardinals were fined for having multiple minor league team affiliates in certain leagues and 74 Cardinal minor league players were declared free agents in the ruling by baseball commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis. The Cardinals and minor league teams involved were also fined for not notifying Landis of existing "working agreements". Taft player Jack Creel was future St Louis Cardinals player and was channeled in 1939 with Fats Dantonio from Taft to the St. Louis Cardinals' affiliate New Iberia Cardinals. Taft Cardinals player Charles Flash played for St. Louis Cardinals' affiliates in both 1937 and 1939 and numerous other Taft teammates had played for 1937 Cardinals' affiliates before joining the Taft roster. Nearly all other 1938 Taft Cardinal players who continued to play minor league baseball in 1939, continued their careers with 1939 St. Louis Cardinals' affiliate teams. Manager John Morrow went on to manage the Johnson City Cardinals, who were a St. Louis Cardinals affiliate.

## The ballpark

The Taft Cardinals were noted to have played minor league home games at the Taft High School Field. In 1938, the ballpark had a capacity of 1,200 and dimensions of (Left, Center, Right): 315–390–315. Today, Taft High School is located at 502 Rincon Road in Taft, Texas.
