Autoroute 55 (also called Autoroute de l'Énergie north of the Autoroute 20 and Autoroute Joseph-Armand Bombardier south of it) is an important north-south Autoroute and the only one running in that direction in central Quebec. It is the longest north-south Autoroute, beginning as the continuation of I-91 at the Canada–United States border near Stanstead and continuing to Shawinigan, where it downgrades to Route 155. The total length of A-55 is currently 247 km (153.5 mi) long, including concurrencies with Autoroutes 10, 20 and 40. This Autoroute connects the mid-sized communities of Sherbrooke, Drummondville, Trois-Rivières and Shawinigan and the smaller communities in between. The most notable feature on A-55 is the Laviolette Bridge between Trois-Rivières and Bécancour, which is one of the longest bridges in Quebec and in Canada. A-55 had a short \"gap\" between Bécancour and Drummondville which was under construction and it was completed in October 2006. The gap results from Transports Quebec's original intention of bringing A-55 southeast towards Victoriaville along what is now Autoroute 955 before shifting southwest to rejoin existing A-55 near Richmond. However, the plans changed in the 1970s and the present routing was chosen. The southern section was originally supposed to be Autoroute 51 which was intended to continue to the planned extension of Autoroute 30 in Pierreville. A-55 was signed along Route 155 (which is not an Autoroute-standard highway) until the new route was completed. All of the southern portion of A-55 became a full four-lane freeway by the end of October 2006. The gap being filled in the northern portion will initially be a two-lane freeway for about 20 km (12.4 mi), but it is intended to ultimately be four lanes. The designation Autoroute Joseph-Armand Bombardier is in honour of Quebec businessman Joseph-Armand Bombardier, who lived in Valcourt, near where A-55 passes and who invented the snowmobile there. His company, Bombardier Inc., started by building snowmobiles and eventually grew into a major international manufacturer of transit vehicles and aircraft. The designation Autoroute de l'Énergie means \"Energy Highway\", since it provides access to the Gentilly Nuclear Generating Station in Bécancour and the hydroelectric facilities in Shawinigan and the Haut-Saint-Maurice area, although this section north of A-30 is likely to remain at its comparatively short length to Shawinigan for the foreseeable future. | Place | RouteOfTransportation | Road |

It was published by Palmer's Clark Publishing in Evanston, Illinois beginning in the late 1940s. Sold for 35 cents, the digest size publication was bi-monthly until September 1950, six-weekly until October 1952 and then monthly. The first issue, dated November 1949, was credited to editor Robert N. Webster, one of Palmer's pseudonyms, since Palmer was, at the time, still employed by Ziff-Davis as the editor of Amazing Stories and Fantastic Adventures. Other Worlds debuted with \"The Fall of Lemuria\" by Richard S. Shaver, \"Where No Foot Walks\" by G.H. Irwin and \"Venus Trouble Shooter\" by John Wiley. | Work | PeriodicalLiterature | Magazine |
Disco: A Decade of Saturday Nights, organized by Experience Music Project in Seattle, Washington, was the first major museum exhibition to explore the rich, complex world of disco. Pulsating with light and sound, the exhibit followed disco from its beginnings in New York club culture to the fad created by Saturday Night Fever, the ensuing backlash, and disco's influential afterlife. The show included the drum kit used by Earl Young, the inventor of the disco beat; the Plexiglas guitar played by Nile Rodgers of Chic; one of Saturday Night Fever's famous white suits; a selection of photographs taken by Andy Warhol at Studio 54; video clips of Disco Step-by-Step Television Show, and rare artifacts from legendary nightspots ranging from The Loft to the Paradise Garage. Artists represented Donna Summer, Grace Jones, the Bee Gees, Sylvester James, A Taste of Honey, and many more. With help from a group of expert consultants (Marty Angelo, Nicky Siano, etc.) led by Vince Aletti, the first journalist to write nationally about disco in 1973, the exhibit helped to change people's thinking about a musical genre that has been hugely important and hugely misunderstood. The exhibit made stops at the Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, Michigan in 2004 and the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts in New York City in 2005. The exhibit is currently retired. | Place | Building | Museum |
Kathryn Jean \"Kathy\" Whitmire (née Niederhofer) (born August 15, 1946) is best known as the first female Mayor of the city of Houston, Texas, serving five consecutive two-year terms, from 1982 to 1991. She also served two terms as City Controller from 1977 to 1981, which made her the first female elected to any office in the city. A native of Houston, she was the daughter of Karl Niederhofer, a licensed electrician, and his wife Ida (née Reeves). After earning both Bachelor and Master degrees from the University of Houston, she married fellow student Jim Whitmire and began working for eight years with a major national accounting firm, during which time she became a Certified Public Accountant (CPA). In 1977, she was appointed to a two-year term as Houston City Controller. In 1979, she was elected to another term in the same office. Whitmire drew national attention when she defeated former Sheriff Jack Heard in an election for Mayor of Houston. The election drew national attention because it symbolized a major political realignment in what was then the fourth-largest city in the United States. In office, she implemented many reforms to city finances, enabling new programs without raising taxes. Her appointment of the city's first African American police chief and the first Hispanic woman as presiding judge of the Municipal Court, her support of a failed job rights bill for homosexuals, among other acts, cemented her support among many minority groups. When former mayor Louie Welch attempted a comeback in the 1985 election, he was unable to mount a convincing argument that he could more ably lead the city out of a recession than Whitmire could. Instead, the opposition to Whitmire focused on public fears about the AIDS epidemic. Two city councilmen, Anthony Hall and Judson Robinson, allied themselves with the so-called \"straight slate\", which opposed gay rights and supported Welch. The issue failed to affect Whitmire's support. She won the election, getting 59.8 percent of the votes, while Hall and Robinson lost their seats. Her string of victories ended with the 1991 mayoral election when she was defeated by long-time political power broker Bob Lanier and State Representative Sylvester Turner. Lanier defeated Turner in the December runoff. She has never run for political office again. | Agent | Politician | Mayor |
Aaron Lawrence (born March 29, 1971) is an American gay pornographic film actor, director, sex advice columnist, author and entrepreneur. After graduating from college Lawrence embarked on an unplanned male hustling career, which he parlayed into both a writing and acting career. Lawrence, who is openly gay, then started his own gay pornographic video company utilizing his international travels as an escort to shoot amateur pornography films. He has authored two books, Suburban Hustler: Stories of a Hi-Tech Callboy (1999), an account of his own experiences as a male escort, and The Male Escort's Handbook: Your Guide to Getting Rich the Hard Way (2000), a \"how-to\" guide for those considering work as companions-for-hire. He has also written articles for several publications, including Anything That Moves and Unzipped. Psychologist Todd G. Morrison notes that Lawrence came of age when being gay was seen as normal and HIV/AIDS was no longer defined culturally as a gay disease. In addition, in the mid-1990s the first AIDS \"drug cocktails\" marked a dramatic turning point in the pandemic so that a positive diagnosis was no longer considered a death sentence. Morrison notes the advent of the Internet for gay men to discover their sexuality and connect with each other online and that Lawrence is the embodiment of the \"new experience of gay sexuality\" much like Scott O'Hara, Tim Miller, and Wakefield Poole had been for their generations. While advertising himself, and speaking and writing about the gay and bisexual escort industry, he has helped revolutionize the public relation aspects. In 2004 he became webmaster for www.GayGeek.com, a website which lists and reviews gay-oriented adult websites. In 2008 he launched www.AdviceGeek.com, providing \"smart gay sex advice for men who have sex with men\". He also developed AdviceWare, the software that runs the sites. He lives in suburban New Jersey with his husband Jeff whom he met in 1992, married in 1999, and who also helps provide illustrations for his various websites. | Agent | Actor | AdultActor |

The Laugharne Weekend is an annual literary and arts festival in West Wales. The festival is held in the spring in the town of Laugharne. Dylan Thomas, Laugharne's most famous inhabitant, described it as a \"timeless, mild, beguiling island of a town.\" The festival is deliberately small-scale. The size of the town - which itself is very small - ensures that the festival will not grow beyond certain bounds. Its location means that festival visitors and townspeople rub shoulders with the artists and performers. According to the festival's co-founders, Richard Thomas and the Cardiff writer John Williams, \"The point is that it's a festival that involves the locality.\" The festival directors have also said: \"I'd sooner start another festival than let it grow too big.\" The Laugharne Weekend concentrates on literature and music, drawing largely from writers and musicians from Wales or who have a connection with Wales. Previous headline performers have included Patti Smith, Ray Davies of the Kinks, Mick Jones of The Clash, the actor Michael Sheen, the writer Caitlin Moran, the poet John Cooper Clarke, the comedians Harry Hill and Alexei Sayle, the painter Peter Blake etc. All events take place in Laugharne's clubs, churches and halls, tiny and intimate venues which entail the close proximity of audience and performers.The principal venues used are the Millennium Hall, the Congregational Church and the Rugby Club The Laugharne Weekend's music director is Richard James, formerly of the Welsh band Gorky's Zygotic Mynci. | Event | SocietalEvent | Convention |

The Battle of Caesar's Camp (7 August 1793) saw the Coalition army led by Prince Josias of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld try to surround a Republican French army under Charles Edward Jennings de Kilmaine. Numerically superior Habsburg Austrian, British and Hanoverian columns converged on the fortified French camp but Kilmaine wisely decided to slip away toward Arras. The War of the First Coalition skirmish was fought near the village of Marquion located 12 kilometres (7 mi) northwest of Cambrai, France. On 16 July 1793, Adam Philippe, Comte de Custine commander of the Army of the North was ordered to Paris where he was soon arrested and guillotined. Kilmaine was requested to lead the army until a permanent replacement arrived. On 6 August two Austrian columns set out to turn the French right flank while a British and Hanoverian column under Prince Frederick, Duke of York and Albany marched completely behind the French army. Though one representative on mission urged Kilmaine to attack, the general determined to escape to the west. On the 7th, the Coalition trap snapped shut on only two battalions and even these got away when Kilmaine intervened with his massed cavalry. Kilmaine was dismissed and later arrested, though he avoided the guillotine and served in Italy under Napoleon Bonaparte in 1796. | Event | SocietalEvent | MilitaryConflict |

The Valley Metro Regional Public Transportation Authority, more popularly known as Valley Metro, is the unified public brand of the regional transit system in and around the Phoenix, Arizona, metropolitan area, responsible for public transit. Within the system, it is divided between Valley Metro Bus, which runs all bus operations, and Valley Metro Rail, which is responsible for light rail operations in the valley. Valley Metro is a membership organization. Most services are separately funded and operated by individual cities and suburbs in the greater Phoenix region. These cities have agreed to participate in Valley Metro as a unifying brand name to streamline service and reduce confusion among riders. Each city appoints a representative to the RPTA board of directors, and a chairman, vice chairman, and treasurer are voted on amongst the board members for a one-year term. The two largest operators of bus service are the city of Phoenix and the Regional Public Transportation Authority (operating multi-city routes and services primarily in Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, and Tempe). Circulator service in Glendale is operated by the city of Glendale directly, and the Scottsdale Trolley circulators are contracted by the city of Scottsdale. The RPTA operates a customer service, marketing and long-range transit planning operation from headquarters in downtown Phoenix which is shared among all Valley Metro member cities. A few routes which operate within several member cities have their funding and operations shared between those cities. Some RPTA funding is used to augment service provided by the member cities (this is expected to increase over the next several years due to the 2004 voter approval of an extension to the original 1985 sales tax for transit funding). The city of Phoenix alone operates 73 percent of all Valley Metro routes (several of which also serve suburban cities). | Agent | Organisation | PublicTransitSystem |

The airstrip was constructed by the Tata Iron and Steel Company in 1950s for the purpose of carrying officials of the company, who regularly visited the area to survey and supervise the transportation of dolomite and other minerals from the district of Sundargarh for their industry. Small planes used to fly daily between Rourkela and Jamshedpur carrying the officials between these two steel cities. In 1961, this airport was taken by the Airports Authority of India (AAI). With the construction of the new airport, Vayudoot started Flight PF-715 flying daily between Ranchi and Kolkata via Rourkela. Also another flight between Ranchi and Bhubaneswar via Rourkela used to operate in the late 80s. Air services to Rourkela were stopped in early 90s when Vayudoot suffered heavy losses and reduced its operations from serving 105 airports to just 45 airports.

So Casual (foaled 25 October 1995) is a Thoroughbred racehorse who won the New Zealand Derby in record time in 1998. Although not the star in his two-year-old year, So Casual ran extremely well in his first season of racing and never finished further back than third. He ran second in two Group 1 races at two, behind Happyanunoit and Zola. Early in his three-year-old season he had to settle for minor placings too, keeping his perfect record of being in the first three at every start intact as he finished second in the 2000 Guineas to Danske and third in the Avondale Guineas to Kelt Capital Stakes winner Just Call Me Sir. But in the Derby he finally got his well-deserved first major win, and he made up for lost time with an extraordinary performance. Ridden by Australian jockey Damien Oliver, So Casual turned the tables on all who had narrowly beaten him to date by winning the Derby in a time of 2:24.80, a track and national record for 2400m (12 furlongs) that still stands 9 years later. Struggling with soundness after his Derby win, So Casual didn't often show his best in subsequent starts, although he did return to the winners' circle on Derby Day once again in the King's Plate the following year. He was eventually retired after another unsuccessful return from an injury-enforced layoff in early 2002. | Species | Horse | RaceHorse |
