Scary Chicken

Scary Chicken is a Buffalo, New York–based band that was active 1989–2002.

Formation

Formed at the University at Buffalo, the band recorded and released 4 CDs and 2 cassettes, and has had songs placed in multiple Motion Picture Soundtracks and National TV shows, most recently on Spike TV's "Top Dead Center" program.

Members

The band members are Tim Bryant (guitar, vocals), Tom Greier (guitar, vocals), Paul Zacks (bass), Dan "Scary" Braun (drums). Zacks, who died in 2015, had previously been a member of the Rochester, New York–based band The Elephant Balls Experience.

Club scene

Formed in 1989, Scary Chicken passed through the Buffalo college circuit and its growing club scene, to become one of the area's most popular alternative bands. Scary Chicken played extensively in the eastern U.S. throughout the 1990s, primarily between New York City, Chicago, Toronto, and Tennessee.

Releases

Scary Chicken released a series of self-produced and released CDs, including Something Anymore and Flanny EP, before being discovered in 1994 at New York City's Lion's Den club by Cevin Soling of Xemu Records.

Tours

The band was the first to tour Hard Rock Cafe clubs from Boston to Miami,Weezer, Sloan, Beck, Ben Folds 5, Goo Goo Dolls,moe., Blue Rodeo and members of Moonboot Lover now playing as Soulive. The band was invited to play several large outdoor "EdgeFest" concerts, and was selected for Buffalo's Thursday at the Square concert series.

Press

From the Band's press kit:

The Hoya, Washington D.C., September 27, 1996

"... Listening to "Is That Your Beer?" probably makes one wonder whether Scary Chicken's sound is amicable listening material for a night out dining with your loved ones. Many of the album's tracks contain hard guitar progressions that would probably sens plates flying off tables. For the Washington, D.C. show, however, they used an acoustic set that made the tracks come off much lighter.


Scary Chicken

"The band opened the set with "If I Showered," which they released last month and should soon see time on major radio stations. The next song was "Can't Stop It", one of the songs that was written by Greier. This song, like most of those written by Greier on the album, is softer—more "chick rockish" according to Greier. The other songs on the album were written by Bryant who Greier says writes "witty and insane" pieces.

"Some of Bryant's highlights include "Favorite Channel", a powerful, simultaneously poignant love song that was inspired by a remote control button, and "Road to Hell," which he wrote because of his father's favorite expression: "The road to Hell is paved with good intentions."

"This tour shows that Scary Chicken will be playing for larger audiences in the very near future."

Democrat and Chronicle, Rochester, N.Y. June 27, 1996

"Prank calls and beer guzzling: It's all part of playing Chicken."

Artvoice, Buffalo, N.Y. December 4, 1995

"For anyone who has seen Scary Chicken, you know that these guys are well humoured and quick-witted fellas that take what they can get, and laugh about it.

"The knack for songwriting that exists among Tim Bryant, Tom Greier, Paul Zacks, and Dan "Scary" Braun reaches mammoth proportions. This band has accomplished so much through its determination, hard work, and consistent practicing schedule, yet they aren't getting the attention that the Goo Goo Dolls or Ani DiFranco have received.


Scary Chicken

"With two singers, Scary Chicken lays down sweet harmonies and rocking melodies over sometimes heavy guitar licks and interesting chord progressions. With songs like "Furburger", "Nuke The Whales", and "Tip Your Bartender" also included in Scary Chicken's repertoire, the fun, cynicism, and wit sometimes catches you off guard. This is what makes the band great though: great music combined with fun, zanyness (Tim Bryant has been known to ask the audience if he can spit down someone's throat for fifty cents!), mystery (Paul had his car—or should I say, "grocery-getter"—stolen right before Scary Chicken was to hit the stage at Broadway Joe's a while back!), and atmosphere.

"As Scary Chicken is symbolic of the Buffalo Music scene, I have hopes and confidence that the chickens are on to bigger and better things. Many of their fans are die-hards and new people are always impressed.

The Buffalo News June 16, 1995

Local Record Pick

"Is That Your Beer?" by Scary Chicken Buffalo band on Xemu Records, an independent label out of New York...The Chicken cooks with the jangling guitar rock on the opening cut, "If I Showered". The beat picks up on the hard driving "Cementhead". Scary Chicken adds a touch of country pop to "Can't Stop It" and displays a tough edge on "Found". The group pounds away with power on "Locked Up". This album proves the band is ready for the big time with a national release."

Night-Life Magazine June 5, 1995

"Scary Chicken, and 11-song CD called "Is That Your Beer?" with live introductions, occasional crow noise, an intermission and a secret 33rd track.

"The spoken intros give the impression that this might have been recorded live in concert, an impression reinforced by the rawness of the sound. A check of the liner notes, however, reveals that all this seemingly messy spontaneity was actually laid down in a studio. Well, make that three studios.

"Scary Chicken has a marvelous sense of what makes a pop tune click. Everything they write seems to have a melody and a clever chorus."

Riddick Bowe vs. Larry Donald

Riddick Bowe vs. Larry Donald was a professional boxing match contested on December 3, 1994.

Background

Just over a year prior, Riddick Bowe had defended his WBA and IBF titles in a highly anticipated rematch with Evander Holyfield, the man he had defeated to capture the titles. In a closely contested match, Holyfield would win by majority decision, becoming the new heavyweight champion and handing Bowe his first (and would what turn out to be his only) loss as a professional. After nine months of inactivity, Bowe made his return on August 13, 1994, to face fringe contender Buster Mathis, Jr. in his first comeback fight. Bowe was clearly ahead on the scorecards when Mathis took a knee to recover after being overwhelmed by a barrage of heavy punches from Bowe. However, while Bowe quickly landed a right hand that knocked Mathis out. As the punch was illegal and Mathis could not continue, Bowe faced the possibility of being charged with a disqualification loss, but both referee Arthur Mercante Sr. and the New Jersey State Athletic Control Board decided to rule the bout a no-contest.Larry Donald in his next fight.Jeremy Williams and former heavyweight title challenger Bert Cooper. Donald was also ranked by all three major boxing organizations, with the WBC ranking him highest of all at number 5. In contrast, Bowe was only ranked by two of the three organizations (#5 by the IBF and #8 by the WBA) and despite being only two years removed from capturing their heavyweight championship, was completely unranked by the WBC.

At a press conference in Los Angeles only five days before the fight was to take place, Bowe and Donald exchanged words when Bowe suddenly hit Donald with a left-right combination before the two were separated. Donald did not retaliate, but was critical of Bowe for the act, calling him "unprofessional", "afraid" and stated "When you try so hard to intimidate someone, it means that you're the one who's intimidated." Bowe offered no apology to Donald and simply explained that he "had heard that he was talking trash, and I told him, 'if you say one more thing, I'm going to hit you'. He opened his mouth again, so I popped him."

The Fight


Riddick Bowe vs. Larry Donald

The Fight

In what would prove to be a largely uneventful fight, Bowe would earn an overwhelmingly lopsided decision. Bowe was the aggressor for the entire fight while Donald used a defensive strategy and spent most of the fight retreating from Bowe while throwing punches in short flurries before quickly moving away. Bowe dominated the punch stats, landing 219 punches during the course of the fight while Donald landed only 103. The official scorecards were also clearly in Bowe's favor. One judge had Bowe winning all 12 rounds and scored the fight 120–108 in his favor. The other two judge's had Bowe winning 10 of the 12 rounds and scored the fight 118–109 and 118–110.

Aftermath

Despite possessing an impressive 35–1 record, Bowe still found difficulty in securing a match for one of the major heavyweight titles. As a result, Bowe would challenge Herbie Hide for the WBO title, which at the time was less regarded than the WBA, WBC and IBF versions of the title. Bowe would ultimately defeat Hide in dominating fashion on March 11, 1995, to capture the WBO championship. He would then have two more fights in 1995, first obtaining a knockout victory over former amateur rival Jorge Luis González in what would prove to be his only defense of the WBO title, and then knocking out Evander Holyfield in their anticipated rubbermatch. All in all, Bowe finished 1995 a perfect 3–0 with three knockout victories that increased his record to 38–1.

Donald would finish the remainder of the decade without recording another loss, though most of his fights were against journeymen and past-their-prime former contenders. Nevertheless, with his record now standing at an impressive 38–1–2, Donald secured a WBA title "eliminator" bout with Kirk Johnson in 2001 with the victor earning a shot at John Ruiz and the WBA heavyweight title, though he would lose by a close decision. Donald would earn several more WBA title "eliminator" fights but was unable to win any of them. He would retire in 2007 with a record of 42–5–3.

Palawan toadlet Pelophryne albotaeniata from Palawan, the Philippines, is morphologically similar to Pelophryne misera and might be its subspecies.

Description

Pelophryne misera are small, stout toads.16–21 mm (0.63–0.83 in) and females 18–23 mm (0.71–0.91 in) in snout–vent length. Colouration is dark brown, with blackish markings on the head, back, and flanks. The snout is blunt and has truncated vertical profile. The skin has warts. Hands and feet have fleshy webbing, reaching the tips of the first three fingers in the hands.

Pelophryne misera are sexually dimorphic: males have a median subgular vocal sac, a row of yellow or brown spinules under the mandible, and a yellow or brown nuptial pad on the first finger. They also have minute spinules distributed over their whole dorsum.

Reproduction

Males are calling from shrubs up to 50 cm (20 in) above the ground. Eggs are laid in small water-filled terrestrial depressionspitcher plants.2.8 mm (0.11 in) in diameter;tadpoles after 16 days and metamorphose after 44 days.

Habitat and conservation

Natural habitats of Pelophryne misera are montane elfin forests above 1,500 m (4,900 ft) asl. Adult toads are largely terrestrial and live in leaf-litter, rock crevices, and holes in the ground.

Pelophryne misera is threatened by habitat loss caused by logging, although this mainly takes place at lower altitudes. Infrastructure development for tourism is also a potential threat. The species occurs in the Kinabalu Park.

Wings (cigarette)

Wings is an American brand of cigarettes, currently owned and manufactured by Japan Tobacco. As a subsidiary of giant British American Tobacco, Wings, along with some of B&W's other cigarette brands were sold in Europe.

History

Wings was launched in 1929 by Brown & Williamson as a popular ten-cent economy brand. Wings cigarettes were a product of the Great Depression. While regular cigarettes cost 25¢ for two packs, Wings packs sold for 10¢ each.Export A.

It is available in Red, Gold, and Menthol in both Kings and 100s.

Marketing

In the 1940s, Brown & Williamson issued the "Modern American Airplanes" series of trading cards. The cards were inserted in packs of their Wings cigarettes as a premium. There were four series of 50 subjects each. The back of each card contained descriptive text particular to each aircraft. It seems B&W initially planned to produce only one set of 50 cards. At some point in the process, they decided they had a good thing on their hands, and added another 100 subjects. They began with cards numbered 1 to 50, with only the card number in the box at the top of each card back. After the decision was made to increase the number subjects, they needed a way to distinguish this series from the ones to come. The caption "Series A" was added along with the number. The "Unlettered Series" and "Series A" were composed of exactly the same aircraft. Since the "Series A" cards were produced toward the end of the initial series production process, they are much harder to find, and command a premium over the cards in the other three series. Card number 34, is captioned Sparton "Executive" in the Unlettered Series, and corrected to Spartan "Executive" in Series A. "Series B" and "Series C" followed. Aircraft from foreign countries, notably Great Britain, were added to fill out these last two sets.


Wings (cigarette)

The first two series of cards were produced with the "cooperation of Popular Aviation magazine". The magazine, now named Flying, is still being published. The military planes pictured were from "official photographs" of the United States Navy or the United States Army Air Corps. Larger photos of the pictured aircraft were offered for 10 cents on the backs of the first 25 Series B cards. Albums for all three (different) series, to facilitate card collecting, were also available. The American Card Catalog number for these cards is T87."Wings of Destiny". These cards were originally issued with their tobacco products in conjunction with the show. They were collected with albums, and usually were glued, or stapled to them, damaging the cards. The card collection series lasted until 1942.

Various advertising merchandise was also made to sponsor Wings cigarettes. Billboard and poster advertisements were made and were mainly in English, but in some cases also in other languages such as Dutch.

Markets

Wings is mainly sold in the United States, but also was or still is sold in the Netherlands, Germany and Russia.

Sponsorship

Back in 1940, Brown & Williamson sponsored a radio program called "Wings of Destiny". Airplane trading cards were originally issued with their tobacco products in conjunction with the show.

Regenerative capacitor memory

Regenerative capacitor memory is a type of computer memory that uses the electrical property of capacitance to store the bits of data. Because the stored charge slowly leaks away, these memories must be periodically regenerated (i.e. read and rewritten, also called refreshed) to prevent data loss.

Other types of computer memory exist that use the electrical property of capacitance to store the data, but do not require regeneration. Traditionally these have either been somewhat impractical (e.g., the Selectron tuberead-only memory (e.g., EPROM, EEPROM/Flash memory

History

The first regenerative capacitor memory built was the rotating capacitor drum memory of the Atanasoff–Berry Computer (1942). Each of its two drums stored thirty 50-bit binary numbers (1500 bits each), rotated at 60 rpm and was regenerated every rotation (1 Hz refresh rate).

The first random access regenerative capacitor memory was the Williams tube (1947).first practical programmable digital computer, a single Williams tube held a total of 2560 bits, arranged in two 'pages'.

Wings Airways

Wings Airways was a commuter airline based out of Wings Field in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania.

The airline focused primarily on shuttling passengers to nearby airports throughout the region. Wings Airways promised faster commute times to and from major airports for those living in neighboring suburban areas of Philadelphia. The primary route served by the air carrier was the short hop between Wings Field (KLOM) (BBX) in Blue Bell and the Philadelphia International Airport (KPHL)(PHL) which was a flight of less than 15 minutes. From the late 1970s to the late 1980s, Wings operated a high frequency shuttle service between LOM and PHL with up to 22 round trip flights on weekdays.

However, the airline then shutdown during the early 1990s due to the construction of Interstate 476 and other highways and freeways in the greater Philadelphia area, which made it easier for those living in the suburbs to access Philadelphia International Airport. According to a publication by 2004 newsletter from Wings Field, there were 152 operations a day at Wings Field (55,540 for the year) during the airline's peak in 1990.

Regensberg is a municipality in the district of Dielsdorf in the canton of Zurich in Switzerland. It is located just to the west of Dielsdorf, on a ridge of the Lägern (617 m (2,024 ft)).

History

Main articles: Regensberg Castle and House of Regensberg

Regensberg was founded as a hilltop fortified settlement about 1245 by Baron Lüthold of Regensberg. The fortifications include a 21 m (69 ft) high round tower dating from the 16th or 17th century and a 57 m (187 ft) deep water well. The church, originally dating from the 13th century, was rebuilt in 1506.

Regensberg in Topographia Helvetiae by Matthäus Merian (1645)

During the mid 13th Century relations between the Barons of Regensberg and the city of Zürich became strained. At about this same time, the barons began to argue with the Habsburgs over who would inherit the lands of the now extinct Kyburg family. In 1267 the disputes led to war between the barons and the combined Zürich and Habsburg forces. The barons lost this war, and rapidly declined in power over the following half century. In 1302 they sold Regensberg to the Habsburgs.

The Habsburgs established an Amt Regensberg with a Habsburg appointed Schultheiß leading the town council. Under the Habsburgs the town expanded into a market town and Regensberg castle was the political center of the area now corresponding to the Dielsdorf district.

In 1409 the Habsburg duke Frederick IV (known as Frederick of the Empty Pockets) had to pawn Regensberg to the city of Zürich. However it wasn't until 1417 that Regensberg was fully owned by Zürich. They established an Obervogtei at Regensberg which ruled over 13 surrounding villages.


Regensberg

In 1540 the upper castle burned down, but the lower gates and the donjon survived because they were separated from the upper castle by a deep ditch. The upper castle was rebuilt in the following year. During the Reformation in Zürich the St. Martin's Abbey on Zürichberg at Fluntern was demolished. Stone blocks and two bells from the abbey were brought by ox-cart to the church at Regensberg to rebuild it.

Following the collapse of the Swiss Ancien Régime in 1798, Regensburg became part of the district of Bülach. In 1803, with the Act of Mediation, Regensberg became the capital of its own sub-district. In 1831 this expanded to become the district of Regensberg. In 1871 the capital of the district moved to Dielsdorf and Regensberg became an independent municipality in that district.

Historic attractions include the half-timbered "Rote Rose" house dating from 1540.

Citizens

Eberhard II was born in Regensberg around 1170 and died in Friesach, Austria on 30 Nov 1246. In 1196, he received the Bishopric of Brixen and, in 1200, the Archbishopric of Salzburg. Eberhard founded the independent bishoprics of Chiemsee (1215), Seckau (1218) and Lavant (1228) under Salzburg, as well as the collegiate churches of Völkermarkt and Friesach, where he also founded a Premonstratensian monastery in 1217. Eberhard added the counties of Pongau and Lungau to the Archbishopric. Eberhard was excommunicated in 1245 after refusing to publish a decree deposing the emperor and died suddenly the next year.

The Tirari–Sturt stony desert is a deserts and xeric shrublands ecoregion in central Australia.

Location and description

The Tirari–Sturt stony desert ecoregion contains the gibber plains (desert pavement) and red sands of the large Sturt Stony Desert, the Tirari Desert to its southwest and the Flinders and Gawler Ranges to the south. The Tirari has more sand dunes than the Sturt Stony Desert and has also been the site of some important fossil findings. Towns of the ecoregion include the opal mining centre of Coober Pedy, famous for its underground dwellings. The climate is very hot with summer temperatures reaching 50 °C.

The region consists of the Stony Plains, Gawler, Flinders Lofty Block and the Broken Hill Complex bioregions of the Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia (IBRA).

Flora and fauna

As well as stony plain and sands there are areas of chenopod, mallee and mulga wooded scrubland. The region is home to a variety of wildlife that has adapted to the hot dry conditions including the wedge-tailed eagles, yellow-footed rock wallaby and western grey kangaroos of the Flinders Ranges.

The desert proper is uninhabitable and the environment there remains undamaged, while the greener fringe are used for sheep grazing.

Protected areas

10.34% of the ecoregion is in protected areas. Protected areas include:

Torneo Gran Alternativa (2016)

The Torneo Gran Alternativa (2016) was a professional wrestling tournament event produced by the Mexican wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLLl; Spanish "World Wrestling Council") that began on March 22, 2016 and ran over the course of three of CMLL's Tuesday night shows in Arena México through April 5. The Torneo Gran Alternativa (Great alternative tournament) concept sees a Novato or rookie team up with an experienced wrestler for a tag team tournament. The rookie winner is often elevated up the ranks of CMLL as a result of winning the tournament, but there is no specific "prize" for winning the tournament beyond a symbolic trophy.

After not holding a Gran Alternativa in 2015 CMLL brought the concept back in 2016, this time holding the first block of the tournament on their Tuesday show in Arena México as opposed to previous years where they held it on their Friday night Super Viernes shows. The 2016 tournament was the 21st Gran Alternativa tournament that CMLL has held since its inception in 1994 and was won by Esfinge and Volador Jr. as they defeated Fujin and Rey Escorpión in the finals.

History

Starting in 1994 the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) created a special tournament concept where they would team up a novato, or rookie, with a veteran for a single-elimination tag team tournament.El Torneo Gran Alternativa, or "The Great Alternative Tournament" and became a recurring event on the CMLL calendar. CMLL did not hold a Gran Alternativa tournament in 1997 and 2000 held on each year from 2001 through 2014, opting not to hold a tournament in 2015. The 2016 Gran Alternativa tournament will be the 21st overall Gran Alternativa tournament. All tournaments have been held in Arena México, CMLL's main venue and up until 2016 all tournaments had taken place on Friday nights, with the 2016 tournament being the first time the Gran Alternativa was held as part of CMLL's Tuesday night shows.

History

It was first reported in October 2017 that a New York consortium were seeking to join the Rugby Football League's League 1 in 2019.Toronto Wolfpack became the first transatlantic team to join the league.

On May 20, 2019, the Rugby Football League released a statement on the two prospective overseas clubs. Ottawa had been accepted in principle to join League 1 in 2020 while New York had a change in ownership structure and was encouraged to work toward entry in 2021 instead.

In March 2020, it was confirmed that the Ottawa Aces would be accepted for entry to RFL League 1 for the 2021 season, it was decided that adding 2 North American teams to a semi professional league would add extra pressure to current teams. So New York City Rugby League was planned to enter into the RFL League 1 for the 2022 season.COVID-19 pandemic, the Ottawa Aces inclusion into the RFL League 1 was delayed until 2022, it is now likely that a New York addition will be further postponed for the time being.

In April 2021, the clubs social media accounts were handed over to New York Freedom, a new franchise that was to be a founder member of the North American Rugby League. However in November 2021, the Freedom announced on their website that they would not be taking part in the NARL.

The original New York City Rugby League RFL bid team is now to join the NARL as a foundation club alongside Atlanta Rhinos, Cleveland, Toronto Wolfpack and Washington D.C. Cavalry.

Under the reorganization that created ESSA, both the Coast and Geodetic Survey and the United States Weather Bureau, although retaining their independent identities, came under the control of ESSA, and the Coast and Geodetic Survey Corps was removed from the Coast and Geodetic Survey and subordinated directly to ESSA, becoming the Environmental Science Services Administration Corps (ESSA Corps). As of that date, Taggart became an officer of the new ESSA Corps. On 3 October 1970, ESSA was abolished and replaced by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Under the reorganization that accompanied the creation of NOAA, the Coast and Geodetic Survey was abolished and its functions were transferred to various parts of the new NOAA organization.

R score

For similar terms, see R-value (disambiguation).

The R score (French: cote de rendement au collégial, CRC or cote R) is a statistical method that classifies college students' academic performances in Quebec. It is used by Quebec universities for selection purposes.

The R score is in fact a z-score (Zcol) multiplied by a group dispersion indicator (IDGZ) to which an indicator of group strength (ISGZ) has been added.

[{\displaystyle {\text{R score}}={\bigl (}(Z_{\mathrm {col} }\times {\text{IDGZ}}{\bigr )}+{\text{ISGZ}}+C)\times D}]

where C = D = 5.

The Zcol is the number of standard deviations of student above the class average and gives an indication of the grade of the student with respect to the grades of other students in the class. The ISGZ is the average high school Z-score (Zsec) the group's students obtained on the MEES uniform examination subjects in Secondary 4 and 5. The IDGZ is the standard deviation of the students' Zsec scores. The inclusion of the ISGZ and the IDGZ in the determination of the R score allows for a more equitable comparison between students, regardless of their CEGEP's academic rank, but the effectiveness remains in dispute.

The use of the constant C = 5 greatly reduces the possibility of a negative value in the score and the multiplying the sum of all the preceding values by the constant D = 5 ensures the largeness of the score. The R score is defined such that the average is 25. Most R scores fall between 15 and 35, but any real number is a possible R score since the z-scores tend to positive or negative infinity as the standard deviation decreases. To guarantee that a grade of 100 produces an R score of at least 35, an adjusted Z score formula guaranteed to produce a result above 35 is used. Grades below 50 are not considered in calculating the average and the standard deviation of a grade distribution.
