abstract: Founded in 1983, Miss Indian World is a five-day competition held in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The event is part of the annual Gathering of Nations, the largest Native American powwow in the world.

# Marina Baura

**Marina Baura** (born November 1, 1941) is a former Spain telenovela actress.

## Early life

Born as **Julia Pérez** in Galicia, Spain, she moved with her parents and brother Jesús to Venezuela when she was 15 years old, in 1956. She started her professional career in the early 1960s as a model in *El Show de Renny*, a popular variety show hosted by Renny Ottolina and aired on Radio Caracas Televisión.

She later studied dramatic art under the direction of Paul Antillano, and made her debut in the Venevisión TV-series *Casos y cosas de casa*. After that she worked with Simón Díaz in his comedy sitcom *La Quinta de Simón*, while playing small roles in several telenovelas.

## Professional career

Baura received her first leading role in *Lucecita* (1967), which drew favorable reviews with her performance as the lead character. She then became a leading actress in a number of productions, including *La señorita Elena* (1967), *Rosario* (1968), *Lisa, mi amor* (1969) and *De turno con la angustia* (1969), before returning to RCTV as an actress in 1970.

While at RCTV, Baura starred in several telenovelas such as *Cristina* (1970), *La virgen ciega* (1970), and specially in *La usurpadora* (1971), where she played a significant dual role. She also starred in *La italianita* (1973), *La indomable* (1974), and *Valentina* (1975), where she played her second double role.

In 1974 RCTV aired *Doña Bárbara*, based on *the novel* by Rómulo Gallegos and scripted by José Ignacio Cabrujas. Baura was selected to play the central role, previously established by María Félix in the classic 1943 film. The RCTV version was the first color TV program made in Venezuela, as well as the first telenovela aired in Europe.

During the same period, she starred in miniseries based on Gallegos' novels as *Canaima* (1976) and *Sobre la misma tierra* (1976), as well as in Guillermo Meneses' *La Balandra Isabel llegó esta tarde* (1978). Later she co-starred with Doris Wells in Gallegos' *La hora menguada* (1984).

Baura voluntarily retired in 1984. Eventually, she returned to acting in 1990 at the invitation of Cabrujas to embody the central role of Emperatriz Jurado in *Emperatriz*, produced by Marte TV and aired by RCTV. Then, in 2003 she made a special guest appearance in the successful Venevisión soap opera *Cosita Rica*.

Her film credits include *Yo, el gobernador* (1965), co-starred by humorist Joselo, and *El reportero* (1968), teaming up along with Amador Bendayán. She later played a supporting part for Amparo Rivelles and Julio Alemán in *La viuda blanca* (1970), and co-starred with José Bardina in *Bodas de papel*.

title: Mirko and Stjepan Seljan

abstract: Mirko Seljan and Stjepan Seljan were Croatian explorers.

text:
# Mirko and Stjepan Seljan

Mirko SeljanStjepan Seljan

**Mirko Seljan** (5 April 1871  c. 1913) and **Stjepan Seljan** (19 August 1875  7 June 1936) were Croatian explorers.

## Early life

The brothers were born in Karlovac, Croatia (at the time part of Austria-Hungary). After receiving a basic education there and attending Gymnasium Karlovac, they started traveling across Europe. Older Mirko was, in 1898, known under the name Champion Globetrotter because he walked the distance between Paris, France and Saint Petersburg in Russia. It is believed that the brothers started their journey after being impressed by the books or lectures by another Croatian explorer, Dragutin Lerman, who was in Africa as leader of Henry Morton Stanley's team.

Stjepan Seljan's birth name was actually Štefan; later in his life he was commonly referred to as Stevo.

## Africa

They started in January 1899, leaving Karlovac for Trieste, today in Italy. They visited Alexandria and Cairo, then walked along the river Nile toward Sudan. After returning to Cairo, they headed to Port Said, Djibouti, and Aden, reaching Bab el Mandeb. After traveling to Obock back in Djibouti, they eventually ended up in Harar and Addis Ababa in Ethiopia.

There, on the recommendation of several influential Europeans, Menelik II, Emperor of Ethiopia provided them with an escort of 300 people to continue their expedition to the south. Mirko was appointed governor of the southern province of Ethiopia with his brother Stjepan as his lieutenant-governor. They spent three years defining the border between Ethiopia and Kenya, bringing the tribes under the unified government of Menelik II. Their expedition and military camps near Lake Turkana (Lake Rudolf) were named Seljanville and still appear on maps today.

The greatest benefit of the journey was that they expanded the sovereignty of Ethiopia to the right side of the river Omo. The current borders between the states of Ethiopia, Sudan, and Kenya around Lake Turkana are the same as drafted by the Seljan explorers at that time. In 1902, due to political tension, they left, only to return after the end of hostilities between imperial Britain and France (cf. Fashoda Incident).

They were highly regarded by the emperor Menelik II, and received many gifts, some of which are today in the possession of their families; some others are on display in the Ethnographic Museum in Zagreb. It is obvious today that the journeys of the two explorers were partly influenced or disrupted by world politics. Nonetheless their initial intention was to enrich their lives and the world with new knowledge and understanding of the world.

## South America

In April 1903 the two brothers left for Rio de Janeiro in Brazil with the intention of entering areas that were at that time unknown, to establish traveling and trade routes and permanent posts. The government of Brazil was interested in enhancing trading and development going from the east to the west. During 1903, they established the Croatian Scientific Mission (Misión Científica Croata). They made contacts with the Guaraní tribe around the Aguapehu river and intensively mapped the area. At the end of 1903 they were on their way from Salta Grande to Asunción, Paraguay, ending their journey on the Paraná River in Argentina. The expedition is described in the book *El Salto del Guayran*, published in 1905 in Buenos Aires. In 1905 they left for the waterfalls of Iguaçu and later conducted research for the state of Santa Catarina.

At the beginning of 1905, after crossing the Andes by foot and with mules from Argentina, the Seljans arrived in Chile. In Valparaíso as well in Santiago they planned a new expedition to approach the area of the Amazon River from the south side. Here, they met with Croatian immigrants and established the Sociedad Slava Exploradora de Mato Grosso (*Slavic Society for the Exploration of Mato Grosso*), which was supposed to provide public relations and support expeditions. In May of the same year, they left for Montevideo, Uruguay with their new friend and new explorer Franjo Pommer. Due to extensive preparations, they started rather late, in 1908, focusing on the Rio Branco and Rio Maracá rivers in the Amazon delta. Exhausted and discouraged by delays in obtaining permits from the government, they returned to Chile hoping to see Peru and Bolivia. They spent 1911 exploring the Atacama desert and the area of Tarapacá. In that year, for the first time, they entered Peru. They established *Hrvatsko dioničarsko društvo* (Croatian Brokerage Society) with the purpose of helping the government of Peru to plan, finance and build roads connecting two parts of the country, from the Andes to the Amazon basin.

## End

The brothers took different paths for the first time in October 1912 with Stjepan heading toward the United States to initiate new business contracts, while Mirko was supposed to continue their research, starting a new expedition. Because his group did not meet another group of explorers to continue with, Mirko decided to proceed on his own deeper into the rainforest around Huayabamba river, not to be seen again. In the aftermath, numerous theories about his disappearance arose, including murder, death from hazards of the jungle, even cannibalism, but none was ever proven. After his older brother's disappearance, Stjepan kept moving, searching for mineral deposits in South and Central America until, in 1917, he decided to settle and made his home in Ouro Preto, Brazil, where he died in 1936.

## Reasons

It is obvious today that the journeys of the two explorers were partly influenced or disrupted by world politics and by newly industrialized society. During their travels, they conducted numerous observations and provided documentation later used for works in geomorphology, climatology, and ethnography. Their initial intention was to enrich their lives and the world with new knowledge and understanding. In their diaries, they described the areas they passed through, discussed Indian tribes they met, and left numerous sketches, photographs, maps, data, and memories regarding the nature and cultures that they had so much enjoyed meeting.

# Rick Forzano

**Richard Eugene Forzano** (November 20, 1928 – January 10, 2019) was an American football coach at the high school, collegiate and professional levels, most prominently as head coach of the National Football League (NFL)'s Detroit Lions from 1974 to 1976.

## Early life and career

Forzano was born November 20, 1928, in Akron, Ohio. He played football at Kenmore High School until he suffered a detached retina as a sophomore, which ended his playing days. He enlisted in the Marine Corps but was medically discharged as a result of the injury that left him with 20/400 vision in one eye.

He enrolled at Kent State University and began coaching at Akron area high schools. A 1951 stint at Kenmore High School was followed one year later by a season at Hower High School. In 1953, he was promoted to head coach at Hower, where he stayed three seasons and compiled a 10–14–1 record. He completed his bachelor's degree in 1951 and his master's degree in 1955.

## Coaching career

In 1956, he began his college coaching career an assistant at the College of Wooster before spending two seasons as a backfield coach at Kent State University.

In 1959, he began a five-year stretch as an assistant with Navy under Hall of Fame coach Wayne Hardin. As an assistant, he helped recruit Heisman Trophy winner and Hall of Fame quarterback Roger Staubach to Navy. Navy went to two college bowl games, the 1961 Orange Bowl and the 1964 Cotton Bowl while he was on the staff.

Success at Navy led to his first college head coaching position at the University of Connecticut in 1964. Over two years, he compiled a 7-10-1 record for the Huskies, but was named as the Yankee Conference coach of the year in his first season.

In 1966, he moved up to become an NFL coach with the first of two seasons as the St. Louis Cardinals' offensive backfield coach. Returning to Ohio in 1968, he served one year in that same role as a Cincinnati Bengals assistant under Paul Brown. On January 15, 1969, he then took the head coaching position at the U.S. Naval Academy.

After putting together a 10–33 record with three defeats against rival Army, Forzano resigned on February 1, 1973, to become an assistant coach with the Detroit Lions under Don McCafferty, who had worked with him at Kent State in the late 1950s. Forzano became the interim head coach after McCafferty's death from a heart attack on July 28, 1974, just before the start of exhibition play and was named as the coach for the remainder of the season a few days later. After the 1974 season in which the team finished 7-7, the Lions signed him to a three-year contract to coach the team. Forzano gave Bill Belichick his first full time coaching job with the Detroit Lions. Forzano and Belichick had known each other for many years, as Forzano coached with his father Steve Belichick at Navy and had briefly lived with the Belichick family in 1959.

Forzano was known as a strict disciplinarian. However, Forzano was unable to lead the team to a winning record and was forced to resign on October 4, 1976, after the team lost three of its first four games. Forzano finished his Lions' tenure with a 15–17 record and never returned to coaching, focusing on his own company, Rick Forzano Associates. The company, based in Detroit, serves as a manufacturer's sales representative. Forzano also served as a commentator for Big Ten Conference football games.

**Paul L'Okech** (1 January 1966 – 21 August 2021) was a senior military officer at the rank of Lieutenant General in the Uganda People's Defence Forces (UPDF), who was appointed Deputy Inspector General of Police of the Uganda Police Force on 16 December 2020. Between November 2017 and December 2019, he served on special assignment "to monitor on behalf of the guarantors of the South Sudan peace process, the assembling, screening, demobilization and integration of the armed forces of South Sudan".

Before that, he served as Chief of Staff of the UPDF Air Force, from 11 July 2019 until 11 December 2019.

From December 2018 until July 2019, he was Commandant of Uganda Rapid Deployment Capability Centre (URDCC), in Jinja, in the Eastern Region of Uganda. He was appointed to that position in December 2018.

On 21 August 2021, he suffered a fatal, sudden, massive, bilateral pulmonary embolus and died at his home, in Kitikifumba, Kira Town, Wakiso District, in the Central Region of Uganda.

## Background

Lokech was born in Pader District, in the Acholi sub-region in the Northern Region of Uganda, circa 1966.

## Military career

His military career includes service in various leadership capacities, including two tours as the Commander of the Uganda contingent to Somalia, as part of the AMISOM peace-keeping force. The first tour was between May 2011 and 2012. His second Somalia rotation was from December 2017 until December 2018. During his first tour, Lokech commanded Battle Groups Eight and Nine, responsible for ejecting Al-Shabaab militants from Mogadishu in 2011.

Before his second tour in Somalia, he was the Commanding Officer of the Second UPDF Division, based at Makenke Barracks, in Mbarara, in the Western Region of Uganda. He has previously served as the Military Attaché at Uganda's Embassy to Russia, based in Moscow.

He has also served as part of Uganda's peace-keeping forces in South Sudan. He was part of Operation Safe Haven (OSH), a UPDF operation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo intended to neutralise the rebel Allied Democratic Forces (ADF).

## Other considerations

In February 2019, President Yoweri Museveni promoted over 2,000 men and women to various ranks in the UPDF. As part of that exercise, Paul Lokech was promoted from Brigadier to Major General. His name was inadvertently left off the original list, and the Uganda military apologized for that omission.

## Illness and death

According to newspaper reports, Lokesh suffered a fracture of his right ankle about 3 to 4 weeks before his death. He was managed as an outpatient, by his private orthopedic surgeon. The affected ankle was put in a cast. He was scheduled to see his doctor on the morning of his death.

At autopsy, the team of pathologists found a large blood clot in one of the veins in the right calf, a condition known as deep venous thrombosis (DVT). Proceeding to the lungs, the pathologists found both pulmonary arteries blocked by massive blood clots. They concluded that the patient died from sudden, bilateral massive venous thromboembolism.

He was posthumously promoted to the rank of Lieutenant General.

# Richard Lewis (cricketer, born 1947)

**Richard Victor Lewis** (born 6 August 1947) is an English former cricketer who played first-class cricket for Hampshire and minor counties cricket for Dorset.

## Biography

The son of a renowned Winchester-based amateur sportsman, he was born there in August 1947. Lewis was educated at Peter Symonds College. Lewis signed for Hampshire in 1967, making his first-class debut against Oxford University that year. In 1968 he became a regular player in the Hampshire team after making his County Championship debut against Somerset. He played in twelve first-class matches in 1968, scoring 349 runs at an average of average of 17.45, including a single century, 114 against Oxford University.

# Johannes Holbek

**Johannes Holbek** (13 November 1872, in Årby, near Kalundborg – 14 May 1903, in Copenhagen) was a Danish painter and graphic artist.

## Biography

His father was a parish priest. He graduated from the Roskilde Cathedral School in 1891 and was admitted to the Copenhagen Technical College the following year, where he studied with the artist, Holger Grønvold. In 1893, he spent one semester at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts with Frederik Vermehren. That same year, he was influenced by an exhibition at Den Frie Udstilling, featuring the works of Van Gogh and Gauguin.

As a result, he made several visits to Paris and Brittany and, from 1901 to 1902, studied at the École des Beaux-Arts with Jean-Léon Gérôme and Gustave Moreau, who was especially important to the development of his style. He also spent some time in the workshops of Fernand Cormon and illustrated *Enoch Arden* by Tennyson.

Upon returning home, he provided cartoons for the newspapers *København* and *Politiken*, but his paintings were rejected by Den Frie Udstilling and the Charlottenborg Spring Exhibition. An attempt to find employment at the *Fliegende Blätter* was also unsuccessful.

During this time, he illustrated and wrote the text for two works; *Omkring Midlet* (About the Means) and *Dekadent Barbari* (Decadent Barbarism), which were published posthumously by his friend, Jens Lund. They consist of mostly satirical stories that have been cited as an influence on the works of Robert Storm Petersen.

In 1903, he was unexpectedly dismissed from *Politiken*. He had been intensively involved with the creation of a set of books that would summarize his life and philosophy, and was already overworked, so this new setback precipitated a physical and mental breakdown. He was admitted to Copenhagen Municipal Hospital and died there a few days later, of unspecified causes.

A memorial exhibition was held at Den Frie Udstilling in 1904. Asger Jorn was an admirer of his works and many of them may be seen at the Museum Jorn, Silkeborg.

# Maritime National Fish Ltd v Ocean Trawlers Ltd

***Maritime National Fish Ltd v Ocean Trawlers Ltd*** \[1935\] UKPC 1, is a case on the subject of frustration of purpose, specifically establishing that foreseeable or self-induced frustration will not render a contract frustrated.

## Facts

In October 1932, Maritime National Fish contracted to hire *St. Cuthbert*, a steam trawler fitted with an otter trawl, from Ocean Trawlers Ltd. The hire was to last for twelve months. Both parties knew that the use of such a vessel without a license from the Minister was illegal, under the Fisheries Act (c. 73 Revised Statutes of Canada) 1927. Subsequently, Maritime National Fish applied for five licenses from the Canadian government, for the five trawlers they were using. However, only three were granted. Maritime National Fish did not name the *St. Cuthbert* from Ocean Trawlers as one of the licensed vessels, and refused to go through with the hire, on the grounds the contract was frustrated. At first instance, Maritime National Fish prevailed, the trial judge holding that it was "not unreasonable to imply a condition to the effect that if the law prohibits the operation of this boat as a trawler the obligation to pay hire will cease".

## Judgment

The reversal of this judgment was subsequently upheld by the Privy Council. Maritime National Fish had not been bound not to select the hired trawler, they had merely chosen not to in lieu of only receiving three of the five licenses they had expected:

> It is immaterial to speculate why they preferred to put forward for licences the three trawlers which they actually selected. Nor is it material, as between the appellants and the respondents, that the appellants were operating other trawlers to three of which they gave the preference. What matters is that they could have got a licence for the St. Cuthbert if they had so minded. If the case be figured as one in which the St. Cuthbert was removed from the category of privileged trawlers, it was by the appellants' hand that she was so removed, because it was their hand that guided the hand of the Minister in placing the licences where he did and thereby excluding the St. Cuthbert. The essence of "frustration" is that it should not be due to the act or election of the party. There does not appear to be any authority which has been decided directly on this point. There is, however, a reference to the question in the speech of Lord Sumner in Bank Line, Ltd. v. Arthur Capel & Co. What he says is: "One matter I mention only to get rid of it. When the shipowners were first applied to by the Admiralty for a ship they named three, of which the Quito was one and intimated that she was the one they preferred to give up. I think it is now well settled that the principle of frustration of an adventure assumes that the frustration arises without blame or fault on either side."

This establishes clearly that frustration must be the fault of neither party; any supervening event must be unforeseeable and vitiated by entirely external factors.

# Mitchell House, Melbourne

**Mitchell House** is an historic six-storey Streamline Moderne commercial building located at 352-362 Lonsdale Street, on the corner of Elizabeth Street in Melbourne, Australia. It was built in 1937 for the Mitchell Brush Company, and designed by prolific architect Harry Norris.

## History

Mitchell House was built for Thomas Mitchell & Co, a long-established firm of brushware manufacturers. Their major brand name was Victor, with a logo of the name encircled by a wreath. The company occupied a site at 360 Lonsdale Street since the 1890s, and acquired the Commonwealth Hotel on the corner of Elizabeth and Lonsdale Streets in 1916; the hotel was described as one of Melbourne's oldest. In 1936 Mitchell's commissioned architect Harry Norris to design their headquarters.

It was initially designed as a ten-storey building up to the maximum height limit of 132 ft (40 meters), and out to the northern edge of the site. What was built by 1937 was only 6 levels, and well short of the northern boundary - this was described as the first stage, with the rest to come later. It was built by Hansen & Yuncken in only five months, at a cost of £150,000.

The company's original premises on Lonsdale Street, on the other side of a narrow laneway now called Mitchell Lane, was connected to the main building by elevated walkways, and its facade would be remodelled at a later date.

Mitchell's had their showroom on the second floor of the new building, and the other floors and the shops on the ground floor were tenanted. In 1940 they vacated the building for use by the cartographic section of the Australian Survey Corps, and never moved back. The building was sold in 1970, and the Mitchell company was dissolved in 1986.

The building was classified on 9 July 1987 by the National Trust, and added to the Victorian Heritage Register in 2010.

In January 2024, the Australian Financial Review reported that after more than 50 years' ownership, the Krongold family had sold the building, as well as the two shops to the north, to a 'Chinese syndicate partnered with a local investor'.

## Architecture

Mitchell House is a six-storey reinforced concrete commercial building in a Streamlined Moderne style, with a dominant horizontal emphasis, with bands of steel-framed windows and spandrels with incised 'speed lines' wrapping around the curved corner. On the Elizabeth Street frontage near the corner is a vertical element, defined by a pair of fluted piers, topped by the name Mitchell House in gilded letters, while on the base at the second floor is a panel with 'The Victor' logo. Mitchell House is also written in steel lettering along the second floor spandrel on each side. There is a similar vertical element on the west end of the Lonsdale Street elevation, marking the office floor entry. There is a pair of ornate Art Deco wrought iron gates across the end of Mitchell Lane. The ground floor shopfronts are largely intact. The entrance foyer is also intact, with the original doors, green faience tiles, a terrazzo floor in a pink and green, and a striking barrel-vaulted ceiling. The office floors are more utilitarian.

title: Flight time

abstract: Flight time or block time is an aviation term referring to the total amount of time spent piloting aircraft, and serves as the primary measure of a pilot's experience. Flight time is defined by International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) as "The total time from the moment an aeroplane first moves for the purpose of taking off until the moment it finally comes to rest at the end of the flight", and thus includes time spent taxiing and performing pre-flight checks on the ground, provided the engine is running. It is colloquially referred to as "blocks to blocks" or "chocks to chocks" time. In commercial aviation, this means the time from pushing back at the departure gate to arriving at the destination gate. Air time is defined as "the time from the moment an aircraft leaves the surface until it comes into contact with the surface at the next point of landing". For gliders without self-launch capability, flight time "commences when the glider is towed for the purpose of flight and ends when the glider comes to rest after landing." For helicopters, ICAO defines "flight time" as "The total time from the moment a helicopter's rotor blades start turning until the moment the helicopter finally comes to rest at the end of a flight and the rotor blades are stopped."

For helicopters, ICAO defines "flight time" as "The total time from the moment a helicopter's rotor blades start turning until the moment the helicopter finally comes to rest at the end of a flight and the rotor blades are stopped."

## Recording flight time

Most government licensing regulations have specific flight hour requirements, as do virtually all airline job listings. Consequently, all pilots maintain a logbook, which is a legal document. In commercial aviation, flight time is recorded to the nearest minute. In general aviation it is often rounded to the nearest 5 minutes or recorded in decimal rounded to the nearest 0.1 hour, which corresponds to the resolution of a typical Hobbs meter, an odometer-like instrument installed in most light aircraft. Pilots record many details about their flight time, such as whether a flight occurred during the day or at night, in a single- or multi-engine aircraft, in visual or instrument conditions, and the pilot's role during the flight.

## Limitations

In EASA states, flight time per crew member may not exceed:

* 100 hours in any 28 consecutive days
* 900 hours in any calendar year
* 1000 hours in any 12 consecutive calendar months.

Professional pilots also have maximum duty times, and minimum rest times.

In the United States, the Federal Aviation Administration imposes different flight time limits for each type of air carrier operations. For passenger operations governed by Part 121 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR), the limits are found in Part 117 of the FAR. As defined in Part 117, the daily flight time limits are extremely complex. The regulations take into account the ability of airlines to rotate crew members operating airliners through a crew rest compartment to get adequate rest on long-haul flights (which the FAA calls "augmented operations"). They also take into account that an airline might schedule a particular set of crew members to operate multiple short-haul flights (flight segments) with the same aircraft on a single day, without any opportunity to sleep during those flights (which the FAA calls "unaugmented operations").

Within Part 117, Section 117.23 imposes maximum cumulative limitations on flight time as follows:

* 100 hours in any 672 consecutive hours or
* 1,000 hours in any 365 consecutive calendar day period.

In the United States, time spent de-icing between taxi and takeoff is considered flight time, even if the engines are shut down. If an aircraft becomes unserviceable during taxi, and a replacement aircraft is used, time spent taxiing the first aircraft is still included in the total flight time.

# Paul M. Hunter

**Paul Mallers Hunter** (October 28, 1890 – April 28, 1944) was an American amateur golfer. He was the only five-time Southern California Championship Golf Amateur (SCGA) champion (1908, 1909, 1921, 1924 and 1926), and won the California State Amateur Championship in 1920 and 1921.

## Early life

Hunter was born on October 28, 1890, in Illinois, the son of Charles Legrand Hunter and Ida Malles. He was a student at the University of Chicago, a member of the baseball and golf teams, and was a golf team captain. At age 14, Hunter moved from Chicago to California in 1904. At the outbreak of World War I, Hunter enlisted as an officer in the United States Army Medical Corps.

In the 1930s, Hunter practiced medicine in Monterey and Carmel-by-the-Sea. He had a home in Pebble Beach, California and a ranch in Carmel Valley.

## Golf career

Hunter was president of Western Research Laboratories and president of the California Golf Association.

Hunter won the California State Amateur Championship in 1920 and 1921. He won the state amateur championship on September 12, 1920, defeating Erwin S. Armstrong 6 to 4. In September 1921, Hunter won the state amateur championship tournament for the second time against C. H. Walter of Oakland. Both years the matches were played on the 19-hole Pebble Beach Golf Links.

Hunter travelled to Europe in 1921. In May, he played for an American team in an international match that was held at Royal Liverpool before the start of the Amateur Championship the following week. The American team won the match 9–3, Hunter winning his foursomes match but losing to Colin Aylmer in the singles. In the Amateur Championship, Hunter reached the fifth round, the last-16 stage, before losing to Bernard Darwin. The following month, Hunter played in the Open Championship held June 23–25 at the Old Course in St Andrews, Scotland. In the qualifying, he started with an 80 on the Eden course but qualified comfortably after a second round of 73 on the Old course. In the championship itself he started with a 75 and eventually finished in a tie for 19th place, the second best amateur behind Roger Wethered.

He won the Southern California Championship five times (1908, 1909, 1921, 1924 and 1926). In the 1909 amateur golf championship of Southern California, Hunter, age 19, won the title against N. F. Wilshire. At this time he won for the second time and his name was inscribed on the silver trophy cup. He went on to win the Southern California Amateur title in April 1926, for the fifth time by defeating R. G. Cawsey of the California club.

### Team appearances

## Death and legacy

Hunter died of a heart attack on April 28, 1944, at the Huntington Memorial Hospital in Pasadena. Funeral services were held at the Hunter residence and he was buried at the San Gabriel cemetery in San Gabriel, California.

# Marián Kéry

**Marián Kéry** (born 6 February 1978) is a Slovak politician. He has been a Member of the National Council since 2012, representing the Direction – Slovak Social Democracy (SMER) party.

## Early life

Kéry was born in Červený Hrádok. He studied History and Russian Language at the Constantine the Philosopher University in Nitra. Following his graduation he worked as a teacher at a grammar school in Zlaté Moravce and elementary school in Červený Hrádok and later in public administration.

In 2018, Kéry was among the SMER MPs critical of some individuals in the party leadership, including the interior minister Robert Kaliňák, due to them being publicly perceived as corrupt. After the 2020 Slovak parliamentary election, he joined a platform for "Slovakia of Values" together with fellow SMER MP, who later left the party, Ján Podmanický and an extreme right MP Tomáš Taraba.

In his position as the Head of Foreign Affairs committee of the National Council, Kéry pursued a strongly Pro-Russian line prior and after the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, in stark contrast to the vast majority of Slovak politicians. However, upon the outbreak of the Russia invasion, he condemned it.

# Florida State Road 848

**Stirling Road** is an east–west commuter highway in Broward County, Florida, designated **State Road 848** (**SR 848**) and **County Road 848** (**CR 848**). The road's western terminus is at an intersection with SW 166th Ave in Southwest Ranches. At University Drive (SR 817) in Davie, the county road designation ends and the state road designation begins, and the road continues east to Federal Highway (U.S. Route 1 or US 1) in downtown Dania Beach.

The speed limit is 45 miles per hour (72 km/h) for the length of the route.

## Route description

Stirling Road begins at SW 166th Ave in Southwest Ranches with the hidden designation of County Road 848 and continues east through the cities of Southwest Ranches, Cooper City and Davie. Stirling Road also has several other, disconnected, sections between the dead end and US 27 (SR 25).

State Road 848 begins at Stirling Road's intersection with University Drive (SR 817) in Davie. The road then goes east, entering the Hollywood Seminole Indian Reservation after it crosses over Florida's Turnpike (SR 91) without an interchange. After the intersection with US 441/SR 7 in Hollywood at the eastern end of the Hollywood Seminole Indian Reservation, SR 848 takes Stirling Road east as a four lane divided highway, through mostly residential areas, scattered with commercial businesses. East of the intersection with Lakeshore Drive, Stirling Road forms the southern boundary with Dania Beach, as the road becomes more commercial, quickly approaching the interchange with Interstate 95 (I-95). At the southeast corner of the interchange with I-95 (SR 9) was the site of Six Flags Atlantis, a water park that was in existence in the 1980s and early 1990s. After the closing and demolition of the park, the Oakwood Plaza shopping center was built in its place. Just east of the shopping center, Stirling Road crosses a canal and leaves Hollywood and enters Dania Beach, through more commercial establishments before terminating at US 1.

## Major intersections

The entire route is in Broward County.
