Date Records was a sub-label of Columbia Records which had two different incarnations. The first incarnation was a short-lived rockabilly label in 1958 which included a release by Billy \"Crash\" Craddock. The more significant incarnation was relaunched in February 1966 by industry executive Tom Noonan. The label was relaunched to promote Columbia's acquired and independently produced recordings as opposed to Columbia's in-house productions. The most successful acts on the Date label were Peaches & Herb and the Zombies. The label was dissolved in 1970, except for one more single (\"I'll Close the Door Behind Me\" by the Pooh, an English-language version of \"Tanta Voglia Di Lei\") that was released in early 1972. Date acts were transferred to either the Columbia or Epic labels with most reissues of Date material on Epic.

The Roraiman antbird (Schistocichla saturata) is a species of bird in the family Thamnophilidae. Until recently, it was considered a subspecies of the spot-winged antbird, but based on differences in voice and plumage it has been recommended that they are treated as separate species. As presently defined, the Roraiman antbird includes the subspecies obscura. It is found in humid forest associated with the Tepuis of south-eastern Venezuela, Guyana and far northern Brazil (northern Roraima only). Although generally uncommon, it is considered to be of least concern by BirdLife International. | Species | Animal | Bird |
The Little River is a tributary of the Coast Fork Willamette River in the U.S. state of Oregon. Rising along the Calapooya Divide near the border between Lane and Douglas counties, it flows generally west-northwest to meet the Big River. The combined Big and Little rivers form the Coast Fork near Black Butte. The butte is a dark-colored mountain, the site of a former mine, and the site of a former post office. On older maps, Little River appears as a tributary of Garoutte Creek, also known as Saroutte Creek. However, in 1988 the United States Board on Geographic Names renamed the lower reach of Garoutte Creek so that it became part of Little River. The upper reach of Garoutte Creek thus became a tributary of Little River. Named tributaries of Little River from source to mouth are Weyerhaeuser Creek, which enters from the right; Cinnabar Creek, left; Trail Creek, right; Garoutte and Blood creeks, left; and Dennis Creek, right. | Place | Stream | River |
Hitomi (Japanese: ひとみ), also known as ASTRO-H and New X-ray Telescope (NeXT), was an X-ray astronomy satellite commissioned by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) for studying extremely energetic processes in the Universe. The space observatory was designed to extend the research conducted by the Advanced Satellite for Cosmology and Astrophysics (ASCA) by investigating the hard X-ray band above 10 keV. The satellite was originally called New X-ray Telescope; at the time of launch it was called ASTRO-H. After it was placed in orbit and its solar panels deployed, it was renamed Hitomi. The new name refers to the pupil of an eye, and to a legend of a painting of four dragons, two of which were given eyes and flew into the sky, and two that were left eyeless and stayed as motionless art. The spacecraft was launched on 17 February 2016 and contact was lost on 26 March 2016, due to multiple incidents with the attitude control system leading to an uncontrolled spin rate and breakup of structurally weak elements. | Place | Satellite | ArtificialSatellite |

1870 Glaukos, provisional designation 1971 FE, is a carbonaceous Jupiter trojan, approximately 40 kilometers in diameter. It was by discovered by Cornelis van Houten and I. van Houten-Groeneveld at Leiden, on photographic plates taken by Tom Gehrels at the Californian Palomar Observatory, United States on 24 March 1971. The Trojan asteroid with a C-type spectra orbits the Sun at a distance of 5.1–5.4 AU once every 12 years (4,392 days). It has an assumed albedo of 0.057 and takes 5.9 hours to rotate around its axis. More than 6,200 Jupiter trojans have already been discovered. The discovery was made in a survey of faint Trojans. The trio of Dutch and Dutch–American astronomers also collaborated on the productive Palomar–Leiden survey in the 1960s, using the same procedure as for this (smaller) survey: Tom Gehrels used Palomar's Samuel Oschin telescope (also known as the 48-inch Schmidt Telescope), and shipped the photographic plates to Cornelis and Ingrid van Houten at Leiden Observatory where astrometry was carried out. The Trojan asteroid was named after Glaukos (Glaucus) from Greek mythology. In Homer's Iliad, he was captain in the Lycian army during the Trojan War and was killed by Ajax, after whom the minor planet 1404 Ajax is named. | Place | CelestialBody | Planet |

The East Verde River is a tributary of the Verde River in the U.S. state of Arizona. Beginning on the Mogollon Rim near Washington Park, it flows generally southwest through Gila County and the Tonto National Forest northeast of Phoenix. Near the middle of its course, it passes to within about 5 miles (8 km) of Payson, which is southeast of the river. The East Verde River flows through parts of the Mazatzal Wilderness west of Payson. The Salt River Project (SRP) supplements the natural flows on the East Verde River with water pumped from Blue Ridge Reservoir on East Clear Creek in Coconino County. The water travels 17 miles (27 km) by pipeline to the East Verde at Washington Park, from whence it flows toward the Verde River and the SRP reservoir behind Horseshoe Dam. A significant fraction of the Blue Ridge water release of 11,000 acre feet (14,000,000 m3) a year is allocated to communities along or near the East Verde River. The U.S. Congress has set aside 3,000 acre feet (3,700,000 m3) a year for Payson and 500 acre feet (620,000 m3) for other northern Gila County communities. | Place | Stream | River |

Erigoninae are the largest subfamily of sheet weavers (Linyphiidae), which is itself the second largest spider family. In the United States they are known as dwarf spiders, while they are called money spiders in England. The exact taxonomic limits of the subfamily are not yet known. Erigoninae are the most numerous of the sheet weavers, with more than 20,000 described species. Many species live in leaf litter and build minute sheet webs. These spiders probably are more important as members of the beneficial complex of predators in agroecosystems than is generally known.One species, Atypena formosana lives in colonies in wetland habitats, where it builds nets just above the water line in rice fields to hunt planthopper nymphs. The most well-known genus is Erigone. | Species | Animal | Arachnid |

Ego Dominus Tuus, Latin for \"I am your lord,\" sometimes translated as \"I am your master\" is a poem by the Irish poet William Butler Yeats. It was published in the 1918 book Per Amica Silentia Lunae, where it introduced some of Yeats's essays, and collected with other poems in The Wild Swans at Coole (1919). The title is taken from Dante's La Vita Nuova: the words \"ego dominus tuus\" are spoken to Dante in a dream by the personification of Love. The two characters of the poem, Hic and Ille, are Latin words meaning this man and that man, respectively. Ezra Pound identified Ille with 'Willie', or Yeats: the poem covers many characteristic themes of Yeats, in particular the image of the mask and the concept of the double or \"anti-self\". The dialogue of Hic and Ille treats the poetry of Dante, John Keats, and Yeats himself, contrasting the words of each poet with the experience of their lives. | Work | WrittenWork | Poem |

This is part of dissertation written in 2009 by Thomas Simmons, and is available on request here: www.makepeaceforestry.co.uk. Dothistroma septosporum, commonly known as Red Band Needle Blight, is a fungal disease that affects the needles of conifers, but is mainly found on pine. Over 60 species have been reported to be prone to infection and Corsican Pine (Pinus nigra ssp. laricio) is the most susceptible species in Britain. It was first recorded in Britain on Corsican pine in 1954 in a nursery in Dorset. The disease spread sporadically until 1966, after which there were no new reports up until the end of the 1990s. Between 1997 and 2005 the majority of reports were on Corsican pine in East Anglia, although it had been found in other parts of Britain. The precise origins of the disease are unknown, although there are suggestions that the disease might be from the pine forests of Nepal, in the Himalayas. The origin is also thought to be from the high altitude rain forests of South America. The general opinion is that the disease has been prevalent in the southern hemisphere for some length of time, and that there are now high levels of infection in the northern hemisphere, with unprecedented records of the disease in Asia, Europe and the UK. | Species | Eukaryote | Fungus |

Jozef Bilczewski was born in Wilamowice, Bielsko County, part of the Austrian province of Galicia. In 1880 he graduated from a local gymnasium in Wadowice and joined the theological seminary in nearby Kraków. After receiving his Ph.D. from the Theological Faculty of the Jagiellonian University, on July 6, 1884, he became a priest and was ordained by Albin Cardinal Dunajewski, the archbishop of Kraków. In less than two years Bilczewski received his doctorate in theology and started his studies on dogmatics and Christian archaeology in Rome and Vienna and then in Paris. In 1890 he passed his habilitation at the Jagiellonian University and the following year he became a professor of dogmatics at the Lviv University (Lemberg in German). His university career progressed at a very fast pace as in 1893 he became a common professor and in 1896 he became Dean of the Theological Faculty. In 1900 he was elected the rector of that university, but gave up the post later that year as he was ordained the archbishop of Lviv with the approval of Emperor Francis-Joseph. A supporter of organic work, Bilczewski started an extensive work on construction of new churches in the area. He initiated the construction of more than 330 churches in the archdiocese of Lviv alone, including the monumental Saint Elizabeth Church in Lviv. He also organized courses for the priests wanting to be prepared for social work among the poor and financed several Catholic societies. His support for the students, as well as People's Schools, gained him much popularity in his diocese, not only among the Catholics, but also among other denominations. During World War I he was one of the people to create committees of relief for the workers of Galicia severely touched by the war and shortages of food. During the Polish-Ukrainian War of 1918 and the Siege of Lviv, he was responsible for the organization of food convoys for the besieged city. His help for the poor and the homeless was awarded by the homeless themselves with the title of honorary patron of louts in 1917. He died March 20, 1923, in Lviv and was buried at the Yaniv Cemetery. In 2001 he was beatified by Pope John Paul II during his trip to Bilczewski's hometown, after World War II called L'viv. On October 23, 2005, he was canonized by Benedict XVI in Rome. Bilczewski was an honorary member of K.D.St. V.

Saint Curetán (Latin: Curitanus, Kiritinus, or Boniface) was a Scoto-Pictish bishop and saint, who floruit between 690 and 710. He is listed as one of the witnesses in the Cáin Adomnáin, where he is called \"Curetan epscop\". In the Martyrology of Tallaght he is called \"of Ross Mand Bairend\" and in the Martyrology of O'Gorman he is styled \"bishop and abbot of Ross maic Bairend\". His bishopric is usually held, and with good reason, to have been Ross, the seat of which was at the settlement in the Black Isle called Ros-Maircnidh or Rosemarkie, named after the adjacent promontory A hagiography of Curetán is found in the sixteenth century MS known as the Breviary of Aberdeen, where his vita occurs under the name \"Boniface\". In this hagiography, his Latin name is accompanied by a story of his Hebrew origins, a descendant of the sister of Saint Peter and Saint Andrew, who was first ordained as a priest by the Patriarch of Jerusalem, before travelling to Rome and becoming Pope, later resigning and moving to Pictland. The story is similar to that in the Life of St. Serf, and it has been conjectured that both were the product of the Romanizing faction in the Easter Controversy. There are place-name commemorations to Saint Curetán along Glen Urquhart, Strathglass, Glen Glass, Loch Ness and the Cromarty Firth. Curetán-Boniface is also associated with the churches of Restenneth and Invergowrie, churches which, like Rosemarkie, both have dedications to Saint Peter. | Agent | Cleric | Saint |
Arthur John Provis (10 March 1925 – 17 May 2016) was an English cinematographer and producer, best known for co-founding AP Films (\"Anderson-Provis\" Films) with Gerry Anderson. As a former Navy photographer forging a career operating rostrum cameras, he met Anderson filming a series called You've Never Seen This about unusual circus acts. Finding a shared interest in film-making, Provis teamed with Anderson creating AP Films with the original intention to make commercials. As a result of an advert featuring a puppet, the company was approached in 1957 by Roberta Leigh to create a children's series The Adventures of Twizzle for Associated Rediffusion. This led to AP Films' early puppet shows including Twizzle, Torchy the Battery Boy and Four Feather Falls, although Provis left the company amicably in 1959; he was cautious, and Anderson was adventurous. Provis was worried about the amount of film stock him and Anderson were using. He was also neurotic about the company going bust, in contrast to Anderson, who was determined to get the best possible result, even if it meant the company did go bust. Whereas Anderson went on to produce his own puppet (\"Supermarionation\") programmes (including Supercar, Stingray and Thunderbirds, the last credited to AP Films), Provis continued his association with Roberta Leigh, producing and filming the puppet series Adventures of Sara and Hoppity (1961) and Space Patrol (1962-3). A colour pilot episode for another puppet series called Paul Starr: Space Agent about a James Bond-style action hero failed to be commissioned, as did a 1967 live-action science fiction series The Solarnauts, for which Provis filmed the model sequences. Following this, Provis went back to filming commercials. He died on 17 May 2016 at the age of 91. | Agent | Artist | ComicsCreator |

P2 (pe två) is one of the four main radio channels operated by Sweden's national publicly funded radio broadcasting organization Sveriges Radio (SR). It broadcasts music (principally classical music and jazz) and also carries educational programming as well as programmes in minority languages. The channel began life in 1955 as Sweden's second radio channel. In 1966, SR gave its channels distinct profiles, making P2 the channel for education, regional programming, and \"serious\" music. Regional radio later became local radio and was moved to P3 – still later to P4 – leaving P2 with the profile it has today. The music played on P2 is mostly classical in the broadest sense (from the earliest known compositions to 20th-century and contemporary works), but also features jazz, folk and \"world music\": in this respect P2 can be compared to many other similar public radio stations around the world, such as ABC Classic FM, BBC Radio 3, CBC Radio 2, DR P2, France Musique, Polskie Radio Dwójka, RDP Antena 2, RNE Radio Clásica, WDR 3, and Ylen Klassinen. Programming in minority languages is contributed by SR Sisuradio, SR Sameradion, and SR International. Educational programmes from Utbildningsradion are also broadcast on P2. These educational and minority programmes, however, constitute only a small part of P2's schedule, and they are mainly broadcast in the early morning and in the afternoon. SR also produces an all-music version of P2 under the name \"P2 Musik\" in which the minority-language and educational programming is replaced by music (largely from the webradio channel SR Klassiskt). This is available on the web and, in the capital only, on 96.2 FM from P2's Stockholm transmitter. The minority-language and educational content thus replaced is available in Stockholm as part of the programming of SR's P6 International channel on 89.6 FM. | Agent | Broadcaster | RadioStation |
