Charles Street, known for most of its route as Maryland Route 139, runs through Baltimore City and through the Towson area of Baltimore County. On the north end it terminates at an intersection with Bellona Avenue near Interstate 695 and at the south end it terminates in Federal Hill in Baltimore. Charles Street is one of the major routes through the city of Baltimore, and is a major public transportation corridor. For the one-way portions of Charles Street, the street is functionally complemented by the parallel St. Paul Street (including St. Paul Place and Preston Gardens), Maryland Avenue, Cathedral Street, and Liberty Street. Though not exactly at the west–east midpoint of the city, Charles Street is considered to be the division between the west and east sides of Baltimore. On any street that crosses Charles Street, address numbers start from the unit block on either side, and the streets are identified as either \"West\" or \"East,\" depending on whether they are to the west or east of Charles. (The \"West\" and \"East\" designations also apply to streets that do not cross Charles Street, but exist on both sides of it.) The entire length of Charles Street is a Maryland Scenic Byway designated the Charles Street Scenic Byway and a National Scenic Byway known as Baltimore's Historic Charles Street. | Place | RouteOfTransportation | Road |
Ralston College is a planned liberal arts college in Savannah, Georgia, United States. Its goal is the \"reinvention of the classical liberal arts college in a form appropriate to our time\". Ralston College was founded on February 1, 2010. It is not yet accepting applications for admission. Its president, Stephen J. Blackwood, is raising funds to launch the college in historic Savannah and has obtained a pledge of buildings for its campus. Ralston \"intends to become one of the finest institutions of higher education in history\". The college describes itself as \"at once both traditional and innovative\" and explains that \"the standpoint from which it understands contemporary culture is radically discontinuous with the worldview that at this point in history informs most institutions of higher education\". The proposed curriculum includes a program of common readings, wherein each year all students are required to read a common set of “supremely difficult” texts. It also declares that its \"collegiate culture and student experience will be unlike anything ever seen before, and precisely in order to accomplish this it intends to make judicious if occasional use in a suitably adapted form of many of the distinctive customs that have characterized college life over the centuries\". Ralston claims that it \"will not attempt to act in loco parentis\" and that \"there will be no restriction on freedom of speech\". Their motto, \"Sermo Liber Vita Ipsa\" (\"free speech is life itself\") was taken from a speech given by Salman Rushdie at Columbia University on the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the first amendment. The patrons of Ralston College are Harold Bloom, Hilary Putnam, and Salman Rushdie. The members of the Board of Visitors are Mark Bauerlein, Guyanne Booth, Rhea Bright, Timothy Burgess, Anthony Burton, Mary Clark, Kenneth Cribb, Robert Dodaro, Donald Drakeman, Freeman J. Dyson, Stanley Fish, Reginald Foster, Frederic Fransen, Geoffrey Harpham, Mark Henrie, Douglas Hofstadter, Roger Kimball, Joseph Koerner, Alan Charles Kors, John Leo, Harry Lewis, Wilfred McClay, Michael Munger, David Novak, James Otteson, Jay Parini, William Craig Rice, Jane Shaw, James Tooley, Donald Verene, Elie Wiesel, and Todd Zywicki. St. John's Episcopal Church in Savannah and its parishioners have been significant supporters; the name \"Ralston\" honors Father William Ralston, who was the church's rector from 1974 to 1999. The college has however declared that its name is provisional (they regard the permanent name as a significant naming opportunity) and that it plans to remain \"without political, ideological, or religious affiliations\". On March 17, 2011 MindingTheCampus.com, a web magazine that appears under the auspices of the Center for the American University at the Manhattan Institute, published an essay by Harvey Silverglate, a Co-Founder and the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, in which he suggests that the advent of Ralston College is reflective of a certain degree of dissatisfaction with what Silverglate sees as the totalitarian and corporatized character of many colleges and universities in the United States. | Agent | EducationalInstitution | University |
The Battle of Ballinvegga or Battle of New Ross was a battle of the Irish Confederate Wars fought on 18 March 1643. In the battle, James Butler, 1st Duke of Ormonde defeated Thomas Preston, 1st Viscount Tara, and an Irish Confederate army north of the town of New Ross in the nearby townland of Ballinvegga, County Wexford. Ormonde hoped to link up with the Cork based forces of Inchiquin and so marched from Dublin via Carlow to besiege the Confederate garrison at New Ross. The fighting at New Ross was fierce, the defenders inflicting substantial casualties on the besiegers. Having had to lift the siege, Ormonde attempted to return to Dublin via the northwest Blackstairs Mountains, where he was intercepted by Preston. Ormonde's force seems to have been vastly outnumbered by Preston's Confederate soldiers (Ormonde claimed they were over 10,000 strong) but Ormonde had six cannon. Following some confused fighting (largely due to the rough terrain) the Confederates withdrew. After the battle, Ormonde observed the devastation inflicted by his artillery: what Godlie men and horses lay there all torn, and their gutts lying on the ground, armes cast away and strewed over the fields. By contrast, as few as ten of Ormonde's soldiers lost their lives in the fighting. Marching north, Ormonde led his weary soldiers to rest near Borris in County Carlow. In the middle of the night two Irish men slipped into the camp and managed to ride off with a cart full of weapons and ammunition. Early the next morning Ormond and Lisle were shocked to find that the army had been largely deprived of its arms as a result of the raid. Another battle at New Ross was fought more than 150 years later, when the United Irishmen tried to take the town. See Battle of New Ross (1798). | Event | SocietalEvent | MilitaryConflict |

Part of the division garrisoned Ceylon for a short period of time, before the division was committed to the New Guinea campaign. In New Guinea, its component brigades had a major role in the successful counter-offensive along the Kokoda Track, at Buna–Gona and around Salamaua–Lae in 1942–43. Throughout late 1943–44, the division was re-organised in Australia before being committed as a complete formation to one of the last Australian operations of the war around Aitape–Wewak in 1944–45. | Agent | Organisation | MilitaryUnit |

Hull Royal Infirmary is one of the two main hospitals for Kingston upon Hull (the other being Castle Hill Hospital in nearby Cottingham). It is situated on Anlaby Road, just outside the city centre, and is run by Hull and East Yorkshire Hospitals NHS Trust. Hull General Hospital was built in 1782, then in 1884 the Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh laid the foundation stone for a new building and it was renamed Hull Royal Infirmary. This was in the centre of Hull. A key person in establishing this was John Alderton (medic). The hospital moved to Anlaby Road in 1967 and was opened by Queen Elizabeth II. It was designed by architects Yorke Rosenberg Mardall. The site is dominated by a 13-floor high tower block which houses the majority of the wards, as well as the Intensive Care Unit, pharmacy, laboratories and canteen. A four-floor building directly connected to the back of this tower block houses the Accident and Emergency department and Acute Admissions Unit, the high dependency unit, and radiology, as well as the operating theatres and most of the hospital's outpatient facilities. There are a number of other buildings on the site, which includes the Haughton building, which now mostly houses wards for elderly patients, the mortuary, various laboratory and office buildings and several other buildings containing wards and other patient facilities. The site is shared by the Hull and East Yorkshire Women and Children's Hospital and the Hull and East Yorkshire Eye Hospital. The East Riding Medical Education Centre and part of the Hull York Medical School are located within the grounds of Hull Royal Infirmary. The hospital has a dedicated MRI scanning centre on site which houses three MRI scanners: two 1.5-tesla scanners and one state-of-the-art 3.0-tesla scanner, which is owned by the University of Hull. The hospital's Accident and Emergency Department, in October 2011, had a major, multimillion-pound refurbishment, intended to improve on the services currently offered. In November 2014 work began to install a new 24-bed prefabricated ward on top of a 4-storey building to the rear of the main tower block. | Place | Building | Hospital |

Free Enterprise Fund v. Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, 561 U. S. 477 (2010), was a case decided by the United States Supreme Court on June 28, 2010. The court held, on a 5-4 vote, that the method through which members of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, which supervises compliance with the Sarbanes–Oxley Act, are removed violates the United States Constitution's separation of powers. Under the Sarbanes–Oxley Act, officers of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) enjoyed dual layers of \"for cause\" protection against presidential removal. PCAOB officers could be removed only \"for good cause shown\" by officers of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Officers of the SEC could be removed by the President for \"inefficiency, neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office.\" This meant that although the President could remove high ranking members of the SEC, was unable to govern and execute power to the board, thus a \"dual layer\" of protection. Sarbanes-Oxley Act's dual for-cause limitations on removal of members of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, under which the President was restricted in his ability to remove principal officer, who was in turn restricted in his ability to remove inferior officer, even though that inferior officer determined policy and enforced laws of the United States, contravened Constitution's separation of powers. The President could not “take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed” within meaning of Article II if he could not oversee faithfulness of officers who executed them. U.S.C.A. Const. Art. 2, § 1, cl. 1; U.S.C.A. Const. Art. 2, § 3; Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, §§ 101(e)(6), 107(d)(3), 15 U.S.C.A. §§ 7211(e)(6), 7217(d)(3).These dual layers of limitation on the President's ability to remove PCAOB officers led to separation of powers violations of the Appointments Clause and instead PCAOB officers exercised executive branch powers by determining policy and enforcing the laws of the United States. Holdings: The Supreme Court, Roberts, Chief Justice, held that:1 provision of Securities Exchange Act, allowing aggrieved parties to challenge final order or rule of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in a court of appeals, did not strip District Court of jurisdiction;2 Sarbanes-Oxley Act's dual for-cause limitations on removal of members of Board contravened Constitution's separation of powers;3 such limitations were severable; and4 appointment of members of Board by SEC did not violate Appointments Clause.Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded. | UnitOfWork | LegalCase | SupremeCourtOfTheUnitedStatesCase |

Kach (Hebrew: כ\"ך) was a radical Orthodox Jewish, ultranationalist political party in Israel, existing from 1971 to 1994. Founded by Rabbi Meir Kahane in the early 1970s, and following his Jewish nationalist-Orthodox ideology (subsequently dubbed Kahanism), the party entered the Knesset following the 1984 elections, after several electoral failures. However, it was barred from participating in the next election in 1988 under the revised Knesset Elections Law banning parties that incited racism. After Kahane's assassination in 1990, the party split, with Kahane Chai (Hebrew: כהנא חי, lit. Kahane Lives) breaking away from the main Kach faction. The party was also barred from standing in the 1992 election, and both organisations were banned outright in 1994. Today, both groups are considered terrorist organisations by Israel, Canada, the European Union, and the United States. The groups are believed to have an overlapping core membership of fewer than 100 people. | Agent | Organisation | PoliticalParty |

The John Philip Sousa Bridge, also known as the Sousa Bridge and the Pennsylvania Avenue Bridge, is a continuous steel plate girder bridge that carries Pennsylvania Avenue SE across the Anacostia River in Washington, D.C., in the United States. The bridge is named for famous United States Marine Band conductor and composer John Philip Sousa, who grew up near the bridge's northwestern terminus. The first bridge at this location was constructed in 1804, but burned by United States armed forces in 1814 during the War of 1812. It was replaced in 1815, but the bridge burned to the waterline in 1846. The rapid growth of residential developments east of the Anacostia River led to the construction of a narrow, iron girder bridge in 1890. This bridge led to even swifter economic and residential development of the area. Efforts to replace the 1890 bridge with a modern structure began in 1931, but were not successful until 1938. The downstream (southern) span opened on December 9, 1939, to great fanfare. The upstream span was completed on January 18, 1941. The Sousa Bridge has a partial interchange with the Barney Circle traffic circle at its northwestern end, and a partial interchange with Anacostia Freeway at its southeastern terminus. A major battle over building an Inner Loop Expressway in the District of Columbia occurred in the 1950s and 1960s. This led to the partial construction of Interstate 695 from Interstate 395 to Barney Circle, but political battles over the wisdom of further construction led to cancellation of the remaining highway—leaving Barney Circle and the northern approaches to the Sousa Bridge partially deconstructed. An attempt to build the remainder of Interstate 695 (the \"Barney Circle Freeway\") in the 1990s also failed. In 2010, the District of Columbia decommissioned the portion of Interstate 695 leading to Barney Circle and the Sousa Bridge, and began rebuilding the circle and approaches. | Place | RouteOfTransportation | Bridge |

Lowell Green (born 7 July 1936) is a Canadian radio personality best known as the controversial former host of The Lowell Green Show, a conservative morning talk show on Ottawa radio station CFRA. Green was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan, United States, to Canadian parents, and immigrated to Canada. Green graduated from Macdonald Agricultural College of McGill University near Montreal in 1956. He started his radio career in Brantford, Ontario, subsequently moving to stations in Sudbury and Montreal. In Montreal, Green won awards for his coverage of the Springhill mining disaster in Nova Scotia. Green arrived at CFRA in 1960 as a news and farm reporter. In 1966, he began hosting Greenline, and eventually became the longest-running open line talk show host in North America. He retired briefly from radio in the 1980s, but returned in 1990. He attempted to win the Liberal party nomination for the Pontiac riding in the 1968 federal election but lost this bid to Thomas Lefebvre. On 13 December 1984, Green ran for the Ontario Liberal Party in a provincial by-election in Ottawa Centre. The by-election was called after NDP Michael Cassidy resigned his seat. He came third, losing to NDP candidate Evelyn Gigantes. Green blamed this loss on his \"sharp\" personality and low voter turnout. In 1993, Green returned to CFRA, and has hosted The Lowell Green Show ever since. Green has been controversial at times. Several complaints have been made against him to the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council. In a 1994 complaint to the Canadian Broadcast Standards Council, listeners alleged that Green had been rude and abusive to a caller who identified herself as a Christian. Although the CBSC determined that Green's conduct had contravened CBSC guidelines around discrimination, they also decided that the station had responded appropriately, and the group did not prescribe any further action. In 2006 and 2008, the council censured Green for his treatment of Muslims man who challenged Green on the way the radio show host portrays Islam. On January 4, 2016 Lowell Green officially retired as an On-Air Host. | Agent | Presenter | RadioHost |

Ken Donahue (February 28, 1925 – March 21, 2001) was an American football player and coach. He played college football at the University of Tennessee and served as an assistant coach at the University of Alabama under Bear Bryant. Donahue and four other men, Pat Dye, Bill Oliver, and Paul Bryant, created the multiple defense scheme that allowed the players to switch defenses quickly. The 4-3 and 5-2 schemes are still used by NCAA and NFL teams today. The scheme became popular because it allowed players to learn a minimum amount of technique, while allowing them to maximize the use of their strengths. Following his tenure at Alabama, Donahue was hired as the defensive coordinator for Tennessee. He is best remembered for the 1985 season, when his defense held the Vols' final seven opponents to just four touchdowns, and provided a major catalyst for the team's 35-7 upset of Miami in the Sugar Bowl.
