# New Girl Now

"**New Girl Now**" is a song by the Canadian rock band Honeymoon Suite. It was written by Derry Grehan, and released as a single in 1984, from the album *Honeymoon Suite*. The single reached No. 23 in Canada (2 weeks) and No. 57 in the United States.

The song is played in the episode of *The Kids in the Hall: Death Comes to Town* "The Stages of Grief" during the bar scene where Death is trying to order a drink. It also features in the *Bones* episode "The Woman in Limbo". Also played in the *Miami Vice* episode "One Eyed Jack".

The song is part of the opening scene in the 2008 horror film *Gutterballs*.

In 2015 Grehan received a SOCAN Classic Award based on the song having been played more than 100,000 times on Canadian radio.

## Background

Derry Grehan said he had just ended a relationship and moved to college, so the song was partly based on fact.

Honeymoon Suite were a cover band in the early 1980s, playing popular songs by Billy Idol, A Flock of Seagulls, and other early '80s rock staples at local bars in Ontario. However, guitarist Derry Grehan had written a few songs of his own, which Honeymoon Suite would sneak into the end of their sets after fulfilling their contracts of playing 45 minutes of cover songs at bars. Loyal fans could hear their original songs at the end.

After driving all night from a gig in Elliot Lake to their producer's house in Toronto, the band recorded a sleep-deprived demo of "New Girl Now" the next morning, and entered it in a local contest. It won, garnering record label interest. They booked Phase One Studios in Toronto, and were so excited to finally play their own music that they dashed out their whole album in two weeks. Grehan and singer Johnnie Dee said the band's nervousness and energy can be heard on the vocals in the final recording.

**The New Christs** are an Australian garage rock band formed in 1980 by founding mainstay, Rob Younger, on lead vocals. Younger was the lead singer for punk rockers, Radio Birdman, and in other hard rock groups, New Race, Bad Music, the Other Side, Nanker Phelge, and Deep Reduction. The New Christs line-up since 2011 is Younger with Jim Dickson on bass guitar, Dave Kettley on guitar, Paul Larsen on drums and Brent Williams on guitar and keyboards. Over their career the group have issued five studio albums, *Distemper* (1989), *Lower Yourself* (1997), *We Got This!* (2002), *Gloria* (2009) and *Incantations* (2014). Three former members have died: Stevie Plunder in January 1996, Mark Wilkinson in December 2012 and Christian Houllemare in June 2014.

## 1980–1981

The New Christs were formed early in 1980 in Sydney as a hard rock group with Clyde Bramley on bass guitar (ex-The Hitmen, Other Side), Bruce 'Cub' Callaway on guitar (ex-X-Men, Saints), John Hoey on keyboards (ex-X-Men), Don McGloneon on drums (ex-Bedhogs) and Rob Younger on lead vocals (ex-Radio Birdman, Other Side). This line up never performed live but they released a single, "Face a New God", in August 1981, which was produced by Callaway for Green Records. The track was co-written by Callaway and Younger. Australian musicologist, Ian McFarlane, described it as "searing acid-punk" which has "since emerged as one of the most collectable artefacts of the Australian punk/new wave era." They disbanded later that year.

## 1983–1984

The New Christs reformed in June 1983 with Younger joined by Chris Masuak on guitar, Mark Kingsmill on drums and Tony Robertson on bass guitar (all from The Hitmen) and Kent Steedman on guitar (also in the Celibate Rifles). They supported an Australian tour by Iggy Pop and then Steedman returned to the Celibate Rifles. Younger kept the band going with Richard Jakimyszyn as a replacement on guitar (ex-Lime Spiders). They issued two singles, "Like a Curse" (April 1984) and "Born out of Time" (April 1986), on Citadel Records, which were written and produced by Younger. McFarlane felt they were "consummate, guitar-driven, hard rock". AllMusic's Jack Rabid reviewed "Like a Curse", as being "more slam-bang rock with great rhythm from a man who has it coursing in his bones." The group's music was used on the soundtrack of the feature film, *Going Down* (1982). This line-up broke up in May 1984.

## 1987–1990, 1991

Another version of the New Christs were assembled in February 1987: with Younger were Louis Burdett on drums (ex-Powerhouse, Ed Kuepper Band), Jim Dickson on bass guitar (ex-Railroad Gin, Survivors, Passengers, Barracudas) and Charlie Owen on lead guitar (ex-Tango Bravo). Burdett was soon replaced on drums by Nick Fisher (ex-Wet Taxis, Paris Green). This line up released four singles, "The Black Hole" (July 1987), "Dropping Like Flies'" (December), "Headin' South" (November 1988) and "Another Sin" (June 1989). A four-track extended play, *Detritus*, was issued as a compilation in 1987 for the United Kingdom and United States markets. It was followed in 1988 by an Australian compilation album, *Divine Rites*, which collected five singles from Citadel Records.

The group's first studio album appeared in August 1989, *Distemper*, which McFarlane opined was "explosive" and "remains the definitive statement on the band's sound and style. It contained a wealth of powerful tracks." Penelope Layland of *The Canberra Times* declared it to be "good, aggressive music, full of hate, even if it has all been done before... All in all a good album. Play it as a substitute for clobbering someone." In June 2008 Dylan Lewis described it as "A non-stop ride of terrific songs full of melody and power offset the bleak, venomous lyrics. The tension the musicians create in each track is spine tingling. It's an exhausting album to listen to. To my ears, it stands as the greatest, raging Australian rock'n'roll album." It reached No. 1 on the ARIA Alternative Albums Chart. They toured Australia and undertook two tours of Europe (1988, 1989). The band split up in February 1990 but briefly reformed in 1991 to support Ramones at a gig in Sydney.

## 1992–2001

Younger established the next version of New Christs in January 1992 with Billy Gibson on guitar and organ (ex-Eastern Dark), Greg Hitchcock on guitar (ex-The Neptunes, Kryptonics), Christian Houllemare on bass guitar (ex-Happy Hate Me Nots), Peter Kelly on drums (ex-Flies, No Man's Land, Vanilla Chainsaws) and Stevie Plunder on guitar (ex-The Plunderers). Hitchcock soon left to join the Boom Babies and, in September 1992, Plunder formed the Whitlams and was replaced by Tony Harper (ex-Viscounts, Voodoo Lust). Another four-track EP, *Pedestal*, was released in October 1994. In 1995 Mark Wilkinson (ex-Girlies, Lime Spiders) replaced Gibson on piano and guitar. Younger, Harper, Houllemare, Kelly and Wilkinson line-up were recorded on a seven-track EP, *Woe Betide* (November 1995), which was produced by Younger. A Canadian label, Lance Rock Records, issued a compilation album, *Born out of Time* (1996), which McFarlane described as "13 tracks of prime New Christs aural mayhem." Younger felt it contained "the songs I can still stand."

The New Christs were temporarily put on hold in early 1996 while Younger toured with a reformed, Radio Birdman. The New Christs resumed by mid-year and released their second studio album, *Lower Yourself* (early 1997), produced by Younger. Lauren Zoric of *Rolling Stone* explained that it is "Propelled by tough, inventive riffs and glorious rock & roll grooves, occasional keyboards now infiltrate the make up. Harnessing and driving the band's considerable power, Younger is ever on the brink of immolation, expressing a diseased soul, wracked by the compromises and humiliations of love. Long may we revel in his purgatory." An extended version included a bonus four-track EP. The group toured Australia and then, in April 1997, Europe with Al Creed on guitar and vocals (ex-Fruitworld, Hey Charger!), who replaced Harper.

They disbanded in 2001 and posthumously released a 2× CD studio album, *We Got This!*, in 2002, which was produced by Wayne Connolly. Online webzine, *Oz Music Project*'s Pants noticed that "The crux of this album though is the incredible vibrancy and individuality of the songs, each track rocking hard but having its own identity and personality, yet amazingly intertwining such emotion into each track." I-94 Bar's Simon Li felt that "Younger is in some of his best vocal form on this CDLP, as the band responds the best way they can; solid and continually menacing." Fellow reviewer John McPharlin notice "there is a remarkable consistency of vision, intent and achievement across the whole album. Not for a single moment on any of these tracks does this sound like a band that had run its race, dropped the ball, hit bottom, lost the plot, shot its load and/or was about to tear itself apart." Ahead of its appearance Younger declared that it would be the last album from his group.

Also in 2002, Citadel Records issued another compilation album, *These Rags*, using remixed versions of two earlier EPs, *Pedestal* and *Woe Betide*. Three members of the 1990s line-up have died: Stevie Plunder in January 1996, Mark Wilkinson in December 2012 and Christian Houllemare in June 2014.

## 2006–present

In May 2006 Younger displayed another New Christs line-up: Jim Dickson on bass guitar, Dave Kettley on guitar (Shifter, The Dead Set, Radio Birdman), Brent Williams on guitar and keyboards, and Stu Wilson on drums. The Barman of I-94 Bar website caught their gig in May in Wollongong, where they played "a Greatest Hits package with none of the new songs from the Younger canon... A solid hit-out by a new line-up with versatility and style... Europe's going to be in for a fine old time." In May and June that year the group performed in Spain – including at the Primavera Sound in Barcelona, an eclectic annual festival specialised in independent music – France, Germany and Belgium. They subsequently toured Europe four more times (2008, 2009, 2011, 2014). In January 2008 Younger told Patrick of Mess+Noise website that he disputes providing a lasting legacy, "I think much of that \[perceived influence\] is born of hindsight... Sure, we had some degree of influence because so many people have told me over the years they started their group after hearing us. That’s how I got started, hearing other groups, except it was via the records of the New York Dolls and the Stooges, because the local groups were so vapid rather than inspiring."

The group's fifth studio album, *Gloria*, was released in May 2009. Jeff Glorfeld of *The Age* rated it at three out of five. The Barman described it as "the most low key-sounding New Christs album in the canon. Production was an exercise in economic rationalism – live crowds are small and labels with cash to burn are thin on the ground – and much of what resulted from an earlier session was scrapped." In that same year they played at the Azkena Rock Festival in Spain.

In 2011 Wilson was replaced by Paul Larsen (also with The Celibate Rifles). Dominique Genot of I-94 Bar reviewed the group's live album, *Live 2011*, which is "\[as\] live as you hope to see them (and I did during the 2011 Euro tour). The record was done at the Excelsior Hotel's closing night in Sydney in May, and the thing was quickly mixed by guitarist-keyboardist Brent Williams. The album's got a big sound, with Dave Kettley's guitar high in the ears. My personal criticisms is that Rob Younger's voice is too low in the mix - also i think there are a few cuts between the songs."

This line-up issued their sixth studio album, *Incantations*, in June 2014. Gus Ironside of *Louder Than War* rated it as 9 out of 10 and felt it was "a highly melodic album, packed with hooks and insidious tunes, it's a tightly-coiled brute, as claustrophobically dense with detail as it is outright rocking."

# New England Hockey Conference

**New England Hockey Conference** (formerly the ECAC East) is a college athletic conference which operates in the northeastern United States. It participates in the NCAA's Division III as a hockey-only conference.

## History

The New England Hockey Conference began as **ECAC East** in 1984 when ECAC 2 was split in two and both new conferences dropped down to Division III. The conference was fairly stable for the first decade but began to grow in the mid 1990s. In 1998 four teams left to become Division I programs in the new MAAC conference. A year later, nine more teams split off to join their primary athletic conference, NESCAC, followed by the women's programs in 2001. Membership numbers held steady over the succeeding 15 years, though several teams came and went. In 2015 the conference rebranded itself as the New England Hockey Conference, but no internal changes occurred. Two years later 6 women's and 2 men's programs left to join a variety of conferences, dropping league membership to 11 schools, the lowest number in conference history.

### Splintering

In 2022, Johnson & Wales University announced that they would join Commonwealth Coast Conference as a full-member starting in 2024-25 and sponsor both men's ice hockey and women's ice hockey. In the summer of 2023, Keene State announced that they would begin sponsoring men's and women's ice hockey starting with the 2024–25 season. This gave the Little East Conference six member schools that supported men's ice hockey, the minimum number required for an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. Shortly afterwards, the Little East announced that they would begin sponsoring men's ice hockey as a sport and begin play in the 2025-26 season. In early 2024, New England College was accepted by the Little East as an affiliate ice hockey member, enabling the conference to also support women's hockey. Less than a month later, two more NEHC teams announced that they would be joining the Little East as affiliate members and both Babson and Norwich would be leaving in 2025. The bleeding continued when, in April and May, Hobart, Skidmore and William Smith announced their move to the SUNYAC, while Albertus Magus (who had yet to play a game in the NEHC) and Elmira both announced that they would be leaving to join the UCHC, all in 2025. Salem State also announced that they will leave in 2025 to join their primary conference (MASCAC) and will also start to sponsor women's ice hockey the same year. With just one school remaining for the start of the 2025–26 season, the future of the NEHC is in doubt.

### Standings

From the time it formally split from ECAC 2 until 1992 all games played between members of ECAC East and ECAC West counted for conference standings. In 1992, after the ECAC West split into two conferences, ECAC East only counted games within their conference for the standings, but because a formal schedule was not yet in place all games between members were still counted. For the 1993–94 season ECAC East had its first official conference schedule with all 18 teams playing each other once. Teams could schedule additional inter-conference games but only one would count in the standings. In 1999, when 9 teams left to form the ice hockey division of the NESCAC, the two conferences continued to count games between one another in their respective standings. This arrangement continued even after the addition of more programs.

## NEHC Tournaments

## Current members

There are 12 member schools; the men's division has ten members, while the women's division has nine members. (as of November 2018)

# Wommels

**Wommels**  is a village in Súdwest-Fryslân municipality in the province of Friesland, the Netherlands. It had a population of around 2,216 in January 2017.

## History

The village was first mentioned in the second half of the 13th century as Wimelinghe, and means "settlement of the people of Winiwald or Wimila (person)." Wommels is a *terp* village from the middle ages. Later the village extended along the canal.

The church which probably dated from the 13th century burned down in the late-15th century. It was rebuilt in 1508. The current tower dates from 1862. The *stins* Sminia State used to be located in Wommels and was built after 1706. In 1898, it was owned by mayor Hopperus Buma who transformed the estate into a villa in Renaissance Revival. After a dispute with the councilors, he resigned and moved his villa brick by brick to Haarlem. Part of the forest which belong to the estate has remained.

Wommels was home to 649 people in 1840. In 1892, a dairy factory opened in Wommels, and the village became known for its cheese.

In 1984, it became the capital of the municipality of newly formed Littenseradiel, however the municipality was merged into Súdwest-Fryslân in 2018.

**Wooden Warrior** is a wooden roller coaster located at Quassy Amusement Park in Middlebury, Connecticut, United States. The coaster was designed and built by American wooden coaster designer The Gravity Group. Wooden Warrior features a 45-foot (14 m) drop, with a maximum speed of 35 miles per hour (56 km/h) and a total track length of 1,239 feet (378 m). The coaster features Gravitykraft's Timberliner trains, and was the first wooden coaster in the United States to use such trains. Despite the coaster's small size, it has been well received by enthusiasts for its air time and thrilling experience.

## History

### Announcement

On January 8, 2009, Quassy Amusement Park announced the proposal of a wooden roller coaster built by The Gravity Group, after considering proposals from various manfucaturers. It was announced that the proposal would be submitted at the February meeting of the Town of Middlebury Planning & Zoning Commission. The ride was announced to be replacing Mad Mouse, the park's wild mouse roller coaster built by the Allan Herschell Company. The proposal was met with concern by residents at the meeting, with concerns centering around noise pollution due to the new ride and depreciation of property value. A nearby homeowner filed an appeal for the park to add more buffering to the park's proposals, but the appeal was eventually dismissed. In May 2009, the park announced that the ride would be constructed alongside a 35-foot drop tower built by the SBF Visa Group and "Bullet Bowl", a water slide built by ProSlide Technology. The park also announced that the first rides on the roller coaster would be auctioned off for charity and that the name of the ride would be decided by students of local schools.

### Construction and opening

Construction on the ride began in August 2010, and continued through the Winter. In September 2010, it was announced that the ride would be named Wooden Warrior. The name was nominated by elementary school students from Middlebury and Bethel, Connecticut, and selected by the park in order to reflect the Native American history of Lake Quassapaug. Wooden Warrior opened on April 23, 2011, the park's opening day for the 2011 season. The ride opened despite heavy rain, with the first riders being the winners of the charity auction.

## Ride experience and characteristics

The ride's station is located on top of the park's former entrance, near the Big Flush water slide. After leaving the station, the ride climbs a 35-foot (11 m) tall lift hill. The ride then turns around and drops 45 feet (14 m) through the 48.5-degree first drop, reaching a top speed of 35 miles per hour (56 km/h). It then goes through a small airtime hill before crossing over the park's narrow gauge Chance Rides railroad. The ride then goes through a turnaround through an artificial tunnel. The ride then crosses back over the railroad through a double up before going through a few final airtime hills and into the final break run. According to the manufacturer, there are nine moments of air time over the course of the ride.

The ride runs one train, with twelve riders arranged in six rows of two across. The train is a Timberliner manufactured by Gravitykraft, and the ride was the first in the United States to use the Timberliner. The Timberliner train features hydraulic restraints, accommodating more guests and allowing it to have a 40-inch (100 cm) height limit. The ride has 1,239 feet (378 m) of wooden track. In total, the ride was constructed with around 140,000 board feet of pressure treated Southern pine, alongside more than 200,000 nails, and more than 35,000 nuts and bolts.

## Reception

The ride received praise from enthusiasts for its air time and thrilling ride experience. According to Jim Winslett of ElloCoaster, the ride features "crazy airtime all over the layout" and "speed that shouldn't even be possible". Robb Alvey of Theme Park Review praised the ride's exciting experience, noting that the ride "packs a punch" and described it as "one wild ride", despite its small size. He also described Wooden Warrior as "the best small coaster in the world", and ranked it as his 15th favorite wooden roller coaster, out of over 200. In the Golden Ticket Awards, Wooden Warrior placed third among the best new roller coasters of 2011.

Since the United Nations officially came into existence in 1945, five subsequent conferences on population have been held.

## Event

The conference was truly international, with one hundred and twenty-three delegates from Argentina, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Chile, China, Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Great Britain, Greece, the Netherlands, India, Italy, Japan, Norway, Peru, Poland, Siam, Spain, the Soviet Union, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United States. The conference included six sessions dealing with several aspects of the population topic. Each session included papers followed by open discussions on topics including biology and population growth, food and population, differential fertility, the psychology of falling birth rates, international migration and migration restriction, heredity, and disease. The Conference included papers such as Raymond Pearl's "Biology of Population Growth" and Edward M. East's "Food and Population".

## Results

The World Population Conference succeeded in drawing attention to the study of population growth and established the International Union for the Scientific Study of Population. British Malthusian leader Charles Vickery Drysdale noted that the meeting was "devoid of propagandism," and that the "weight of authority at it has surpassed all the previous gatherings, and has been second to none in brilliance. The simple fact that nearly two hundred persons of the highest eminence in biological, economic and statistical science, sociologists, statesmen, and physicians have come from all parts of the world to Geneva to confer on this question is sufficient to show that it cannot be disregarded and that it will have to be considered by the Governments of all countries."

## Margaret Sanger's role

Margaret Sanger is thought to be the founder of the birth control movement in the United States. She conceived the World Population Conference and organized a group of scientists including Raymond Pearl, Edward Murray East, and Clarence Cook Little, to develop the program and invite speakers. She agreed that birth control would not be discussed in order to gain broad-based support abroad. She established an office to administer the conference in Geneva, but just before the Conference was to open, Sir Bernard Mallet removed her name and the names of her all-female administrative staff from the printed conference programs, stating that administrators and clerical staff should not be listed in a scientific program. Sanger's staff quit in protest; however she was able to persuade most back, arguing that the meeting was more important than who was credited, and agreed that the program be printed without mention of the women's names (including her own). Sanger edited the Proceedings of the World Population Conference.

## Subsequent World Population Conferences

The first World Population Conference sponsored by the United Nations was held in 1954 in Rome, a second in 1965 in Belgrade, a third in 1974 in Bucharest, a fourth in 1984 in Mexico City. The fifth World Population Conference to be sponsored by the United Nations was held in 1994 in Cairo.

# Microcotyle odacis

***Microcotyle odacis*** is a species of monogenean, parasitic on the gills of a marine fish. It belongs to the family Microcotylidae.

## Systematics

*Microcotyle odacis* was first described and illustrated based on 15 specimens from the gills of *Odax semifasciatus* (Odacidae), (currently *Haletta semifasciata*). It was placed in the nominal subgenus *Microcotyle* as *Microcotyle (Microcotyle) odacis*. However, this combination was later suppressed. *M. odacis* was redescribed and illustrated from the type-host and locality and the original figures and description of the adult morphology were completed. Some minor differences in measurements and vagina were noted in the redescription.

## Morphology

*Microcotyle odacis* has the general morphology of all species of *Microcotyle*, with an elongated symmetrical body, comprising an anterior part which contains most organs and a posterior part called the haptor. The haptor is symmetrical, distinctly separated from the rest of the body and bears clamps, arranged as two rows, one on each side (28 on the right and 30 on the left). The clamps of the haptor attach the animal to the gill of the fish. There are also two muscular septated buccal suckers at the anterior extremity. The digestive organs include an anterior, terminal mouth, a subcircular pharynx, an oesophagus bifurcating immediately posterior to the genital atrium and a posterior intestine with two lateral branches provided with numerous secondary branches; both branches enter the haptor. Each adult contains male and female reproductive organs. The reproductive organs include an anterior genital atrium, armed with numerous spines, a medio-dorsal vagina, a single incompletely S-shaped ovary consisting of a convoluted tube and 14 testes which are posterior to the ovary. The eggs are oval, with appendages at both poles.

## Hosts and localities

The type-host is the blue weed-whiting, *Haletta semifasciata* (Odacidae). The type-locality is off Australia. *Microcotyle odacis* was reported again from the-host and locality.

# North Star Mall

**North Star Mall** is a shopping mall in San Antonio, Texas, USA with anchor tenants Dillard's, JCPenney, Macy's, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Forever 21. It also has over 200 specialty stores, some exclusive to the San Antonio market, including Armani Exchange, Build-A-Bear Workshop, MAC Cosmetics, and Oakley. The mall, which opened in 1960, is located at the intersection of Loop 410 and San Pedro Avenue in the city's Uptown District. It is a well-known city landmark for its Texas-sized cowboy boots, created by Texas artist Bob "Daddy-O" Wade, that are located along its Loop 410 frontage.

## History

On September 23, 1960, Community Research & Development Corporation (later to become The Rouse Company) opens the doors to North Star Mall, a new 250,000-square-foot (23,000 m2) fully enclosed shopping center located at the intersection of San Pedro Avenue and Loop 13 (now Interstate 410 Connally Loop). The center opens with Wolff and Marx, H-E-B, Walgreens and 50 other shops and is the fifth shopping center developed by CRDC. A time capsule scheduled to be opened in 1985 is laid to commemorate the mall's opening.

The mall is expanded in 1963 and new anchor Frost Bros. was opened. A two-screen movie theater was added to the mall was added in 1964. The mall was expanded again in 1969 and Wolff and Marx relocated into a new four-level building as part of the expansion and is renamed Joske's. A two-level parking deck with a full service Texaco was added south of Joske's.

The Rouse Company sold a 62.5% stake in North Star Mall to Rodamco North America in 1974.

In 1980, a pair of 40-foot (12 m)-tall cowboy boots, a sculpture by the late artist Bob "Daddy-O" Wade entitled 'The Giant Justins' was installed on the I-410 frontage road. The mall promotes the sculpture, created for the Washington Project for the Arts in 1979, as the "world's largest pair of cowboy boots." In 2020, the sculpture remained intact and celebrated the fortieth anniversary of its installation at the mall.

A major renovation of the mall was completed in 1982, adding food and music courts as well as a new Foley's that is located on the former H-E-B and original Walgreens sites.

A new multi-level parking garage and two-story wing were added to the mall in 1985, along with new anchor Saks Fifth Avenue. North Star Mall celebrated its 25th anniversary, opens the 1960 time capsule, and dedicated a new one that was opened on September 23, 2010.

Two additional multi-level parking garages were opened in 1986 and another three-story wing is added to the mall that includes new anchor Marshall Field's and a new food court. Foley's expanded its store to 256,000 square feet (23,800 m2) by extending the store several feet north. Joske's was bought in 1987 and renamed Dillard's.

Frost Bros. liquidated and closed in 1989. The Gucci boutique previously located in there relocated to a new two-level store adjacent to Saks Fifth Avenue.

In 1992, Mervyns opened in the former Frost Bros. location. Marshall Field's pulled out of the Texas market in 1997 and the North Star Mall location is purchased by and converted into Macy's. Saks Fifth Avenue completes a major renovation on its existing store and also opens a new men's store in space leased from the mall directly adjacent to the existing store.

The Rouse Company sold an additional stake in North Star Mall to Rodamco in 2000, leaving Rouse less than 5% ownership of the property.

The Rouse Company reassumed ownership of North Star Mall in 2002 by purchasing the property (and several others) from Rodamco North America.

The Rouse Company began a multi-year, multimillion-dollar renovation in 2004. The renovation is to be the most extensive renovation the mall has seen in its history.

General Growth Properties purchased The Rouse Company and became owner of the mall. The scheduled renovation of the mall was postponed as a result of the transaction.

In 2005, as a result of the Federated Department Stores/May Department Stores transaction, Macy's announced it would close its 178,000-square-foot (16,500 m2) three-level store at North Star in 2006 and rebrand the 250,000-square-foot (23,000 m2) Foley's store as Macy's.

In 2006, General Growth Properties purchased the Macy's location from Federated. Mall officials announced that JCPenney would open a store in the former Macy's/Marshall Field's location in summer 2007. A multimillion-dollar renovation planned since 1999 but stalled due to the 2004 ownership change finally resumes. Renovations will include the mall's interior and exterior, including the addition of ten-foot letters outside the mall spelling out "North Star." As part of the Federated/May merger, Macy's is closed and Foley's is renamed Macy's. The former Foley's location becomes Macy's San Antonio flagship store.

JCPenney opened in 2007 in the former Macy's location on August 2. In 2008 California-based Mervyns announces on August 13 that it will close its three San Antonio stores (including the North Star Mall location) by November 2008. The new Apple Store opened in 2008.

In 2010, North Star Mall celebrated its 50th anniversary and opened the 1985 time capsule. The same year, Forever 21 relocated its existing store into the former Mervyns location and a Michael Kors store opened by the start of the holiday shopping season.

On March 2, 2020, North Star Mall was closed for 24 hours for disinfection following a visit by a woman whom had re-tested positive for the COVID-19 Coronavirus after being released from the Texas Center for Infectious Disease (TCID).

### Previous anchors

Previous anchors include Wolff and Marx, Frost Bros. (the space now occupied by Forever 21), Marshall Field's (the space most recently occupied by Macy's, then re-opened as JCPenney in summer 2007), and Foley's (the space now occupied by Macy's). Wolff and Marx closed in 1969 (and owner Joske's opened a new four-level Joske's store the same year), Frost Bros. was liquidated in 1989 after one year in bankruptcy, Marshall Field's exited the Texas market in 1997, and Foley's was renamed Macy's in 2006.

### Additional information

There used to be an underground arcade called the music court. Added in 1982 near the north entry between what is currently JCPenney and Saks Fifth Avenue, it was accessible only by escalator. In the early 1980s, the arcade's tenants included Expensive Toys for Big Boys, a record store, and a music store. An Oshman's Sporting Goods store leased the entire arcade space in the late 1980s and moved the escalator to the main corridor of pedestrian traffic for prime access. The Oshman's closed in the 1990s when it opened a superstore across the highway (then Sports Authority, but closed in 2016), and the underground space has since been closed off.

The parking garage added in the mid-1980s between Saks and Dillard's displaced the mall's movie theater complex. The Texaco fuel station located in the mall's original underground garage (at the corner of Rector and McCullough) was also closed during the 1980s renovations.

The North Star Transit Center, operated by VIA Metropolitan Transit, is located adjacent to the mall's northwest corner

title: Golden Mile, Durban

abstract:
The Golden Mile is the popular stretch of beachfront in the city of Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, including the promenade that runs along with it. It runs roughly from uShaka Beach in Point Waterfront to Suncoast Casino and Entertainment World in the north and now includes a route directly to Moses Mabhida Stadium. It abuts the central business district of the city to its west. It is one of the main tourist attractions in the Durban area. The wide stretch of golden sands, artificially separated by various piers, provides opportunities for sun-worshippers and swimmers to enjoy the sub-tropical sunshine and warm waters of the Indian Ocean. Common activities include swimming, surfing, drowning and fishing. Most of the Mile's beaches are protected year-round by lifeguards and shark nets. The Mile is also a well-known surfer's haven. The South Beach end, in particular, is well known as a safe beach for neophyte surfers. The beachfront properties are a mix of residential apartments and tourist hotels, development of which boomed in the 1970s, although remnants of Durban's art-deco architecture are still evident. Interspersed among the beachfront properties are several popular restaurants and nightclubs. The Golden Mile has long been a popular domestic holiday destination and during the holiday seasons South Africans from across the country, but in particular the Gauteng region, flock to enjoy its attractions and those of the longer beachfront area, which include:
  - Blue Lagoon, a popular hangout, picnic and fishing spot
  - Mini Town with a miniature replica of Durban, complete with a working miniature railway and airport.
  - Moses Mabhida Stadium
  - Traditional market vendors and other hawkers with a selection of Zulu art and crafts.
  - An oceanway pavement along the beaches to encourage more people to enjoy walking and cycling.
  - Suncoast Casino and Entertainment World, a casino complex with a semi-private beach, restaurants, shops and public entertainment facilities.
  - uShaka Marine World aquarium, water park, dolphinarium, containing a restaurant with the largest shark tank in the world.
  - North Beach, Dairy Beach, the Bay of Plenty, Snake Park, Pirates and Country Club beaches are popular surfing beaches separated by the piers.
  - The Skate Park in front of the Bay of Plenty caters for skateboarders, roller bladers and BMX'ers.
  - The Surfing Museum, a historical site cataloguing some of Durban's surfing history. The street that runs alongside the Golden Mile is divided between Snell Parade in the north, O.R. Tambo Parade and Erskine Terrace in the south.

# Gone to Earth (film)

***Gone to Earth*** is a 1950 British Technicolor film created by the director-writer team of Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger. It stars Jennifer Jones, David Farrar, Cyril Cusack and Esmond Knight. The film was significantly changed for the American market by David O. Selznick and retitled ***The Wild Heart*** in 1952.

*Gone to Earth* is based on the 1917 novel of the same name by author Mary Webb. The novel was largely ignored when it first appeared, but it became better known in the 1930s during the neo-romantic revival.

## Plot

Hazel Woodus is a child of nature in the Shropshire countryside in 1897. She loves and understands all of the wild animals more than she does the people around her. Whenever she has problems, she consults the book of spells and charms left to her by her gypsy mother.

Local squire Jack Reddin sees Hazel and wants her, but she has already promised herself to the Baptist minister Edward Marston. A struggle for her body and soul ensues.

## Cast

## Production

Filming on *Gone to Earth*, which was shot in Technicolor, began on 1 August 1949. Studio filming took place at Shepperton Studios in Shepperton, Surrey, while most of the film was shot on location at many sites around Much Wenlock in Shropshire. Many locals were recruited as extras, such as the choir from a local Methodist church that appears in the film.

The film was coproduced with American producer David O. Selznick, who had a penchant for dictating long and rambling notes to his directors while under the influence of amphetamines and flooded the production with memos, most of which were ignored.

## Subsequent history

Although he had been involved throughout the filming, Selznick disliked the finished film, and sued The Archers, Powell and Pressburger's production company, in order to change it. He lost the court case but discovered that he had the right to change the film for its American release.

Selznick had the film reedited and some extra scenes shot in Hollywood under director Rouben Mamoulian to create the version known as *The Wild Heart* (1952). Selznick's changes were mostly additions to the film: a prologue, explanatory scenes (often literally, with labels or inscriptions on items) and more closeups of his wife, Jennifer Jones. The most infamous of the alterations are the scenes at the end when Jones is supposedly carrying a tame fox—in the additional scenes, the fox is obviously a stuffed toy.

Selznick also deleted several scenes that he felt had lacked dramatic impact, some of which were major plot points. In his autobiographies, Powell claimed that Selznick only left about 35 minutes of the original film and that everything else in the American version was shot by Mamoulian.

### Restoration

The original version of *Gone to Earth* was fully restored by the British Film Institute's National Archive in 1985. A *New Statesman* review called the restored film "one of the great British regional films" and, according to Powell's cinematographer Christopher Challis, "one of the most beautiful films ever to be shot of the English countryside."

Both versions of the film are now available in the U.S. on Blu-ray disc from Kino Lorber Studio Classics (under license from The Walt Disney Company and current copyright holder ABC).

The film is extensively referenced in Jonathan Coe's novel *The Rain Before It Falls* (2007), in which two of the characters are identified as extras who appear in the foreground in one of the film's early scenes (around 8:25).
