History[edit]
Founded 79 years ago in 1938 as the Greater Greensboro Open, it was usually played in April or May, until a schedule change in 2003 moved it toward the end of the season. Less than two months shy of age 53, Sam Snead set PGA Tour records in 1965 for his eighth win at an event and as the oldest winner of a tournament;[1] both records still stand. Davis Love III, the 2015 champion at age 51, is the oldest to win in the senior tour era, which began in 1980.
Charlie Sifford competed in 1961, and became the first African American permitted to play in a PGA-sponsored event in the South.[2][3] He led after the first round,[3] and tied for fourth.[4]
In 2007, the event was renamed the Wyndham Championship when Wyndham Hotels & Resorts took over from DaimlerChrysler as title sponsor,[5] and dropped "Greensboro" from the title. It moved from an autumn date to mid-August and is the last PGA Tour event before the FedEx Cup Playoffs, as one last chance to qualify for the FedEx Cup and retain their tour privileges.
The purse for 2015 was $5.4 million, with a winner's share of $972,000.[6]
Courses[edit]
The event has been played in the Greensboro area for its entire history. In its first four years, it was played at both Sedgefield Country Club and Starmount Forest Country Club. During World War II, it shifted solely to Starmount Forest in 1942, and was not held in 1943 and 1944. Starting in 1945, it alternated between Starmount Forest and Sedgefield until 1952, when Starmount Forest hosted for consecutive years.
It returned to Sedgefield in 1953 before Starmount Forest hosted three consecutive years (through 1956). Sedgefield hosted in 1957 and Starmount Forest hosted another three straight 1958–60, then back to Sedgefield from 1961 to 1976. It shifted to Forest Oaks Country Club from 1977 to 2007, then returned to Sedgefield in 2008.[7]

Main ingredients
Chocolate cake, icing (egg yolks, evaporated milk, coconut and pecan)
German chocolate cake, originally German's chocolate cake, is a layered chocolate cake from the United States filled and topped with a coconut-pecan frosting. It owes its name to an English-American chocolate maker named Samuel German, who developed a formulation of dark baking chocolate that came to be used in the cake recipe. Sweet baking chocolate is traditionally used for the chocolate flavor in the actual cake, but few recipes call for it today. The filling and/or topping is a custard made with egg yolks and evaporated milk; once the custard is cooked, coconut and pecans are stirred in.[1] Occasionally, a chocolate frosting is spread on the sides of the cake and piped around the circumference of the layers to hold in the filling. Maraschino cherries are occasionally added as a garnish.
History[edit]
Its roots can be traced back to 1852 when American baker Samuel German developed a type of dark baking chocolate for the Baker's Chocolate Company. The brand name of the product, Baker's German's Sweet Chocolate, was named in honor of him.[2]
On June 3, 1957, a recipe for "German's Chocolate Cake" appeared as the "Recipe of the Day" in The Dallas Morning News.[3] It was created by Mrs. George Clay, a homemaker from 3831 Academy Drive, Dallas, Texas.[3] This recipe used the baking chocolate introduced 105 years prior and became quite popular. General Foods, which owned the Baker's brand at the time, took notice and distributed the cake recipe to other newspapers in the country. Sales of Baker's Chocolate are said to have increased by as much as 73% and the cake would become a national staple. The possessive form (German's) was dropped in subsequent publications, forming the "German Chocolate Cake" identity and giving the false impression of a German origin.[4][5][2]
The recipe still remains popular to this day and has been adopted by baking companies.
June 11 is National German Chocolate Cake Day in America.[6]

Early life
Vincent, who was of Italian descent (ancestors from Sicily and Naples), was born in North Adams, Massachusetts and raised in Jersey City, New Jersey.[3] His father, Frank Vincent Gattuso, Sr., was an iron worker and businessman.[4][5] He had two brothers, Nick and Jimmy, and a half-sister, Fran.[4]
Career
Skilled at the drums, piano and trumpet, Vincent originally aspired to a career in music, but turned to acting in 1976, when he co-starred in the low-budget gangster movie The Death Collector along with Joe Pesci, where they were spotted by Robert De Niro. De Niro told Martin Scorsese about both Vincent and Pesci; Scorsese was impressed by their performances and hired Vincent to appear in a supporting role in Raging Bull, in which he once again appeared with Pesci and co-starred with De Niro.[6] Vincent had small roles in two Spike Lee films in 1989 and 1991 respectively: Do the Right Thing and Jungle Fever.[7]
One of his notable appearances in foreign film was in Juan José Jusid's Made in Argentina, in which he played Vito, a wealthy Manhattan businessman who befriends the substance abuse counselor who treated his son.[8]
Vincent was often cast as a gangster.[8] He appeared in Scorsese's 1990 film Goodfellas, where he played Billy Batts, a made man in the Gambino crime family.[9] He also played a role in Scorsese's 1995 film Casino as Frank Marino (based on real-life gangster Frank Cullotta), the sidekick of Pesci's character.[10]
In 1996, Vincent appeared in the music video for rap artist Nas' song "Street Dreams" in character as Frankie Marino from Casino.[6] In the television movie Gotti, Vincent played Robert "D.B." DiBernardo, an associate of Mafia boss John Gotti, whose life the film chronicled.[7] In the HBO TV series The Sopranos, he had his most prominent role, as Phil Leotardo, a ruthless New York City gangster who, as boss of the show's fictional Lupertazzi crime family, becomes the show's chief antagonist in the final season.[11]
Vincent also had a leading role in the heist movie This Thing of Ours in 2003.[6], where he had a brief association with alleged Genovese crime family capo Danny Provenzano (grandnephew of Anthony Provenzano) and former 100-year old Colombo crime family underboss Sonny Franzese, he is pictured with them alongside other former Sopranos actors.[12] In 2003, Vincent testified in court on behalf of Provenzano at a repeal sentencing; Provenzano was serving a 10 year sentence for racketeering and other charges.[13] One of his more light-hearted roles was in a British television commercial for Peugeot cars.[11] In early 2005, Vincent appeared on Irish television in a series of television commercials for Irish bank Permanent TSB.[9] In 1999, he won the Italian American Entertainer of the Year Award. Another noted performance is his appearance in the 2003 film Remedy.[6]
In 2001, Vincent voiced the character of Mafia boss Salvatore Leone in the computer and video game Grand Theft Auto III. He later reprised that role in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (2004) and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories (2005).[9]
In 2006, he released a book, A Guy's Guide to Being a Man's Man to positive reviews.[10] His idol was Dean Martin.[14] He has also released a line of hand-rolled cigars which have his picture prominently displayed on the band.[15]
In the summer of 2008, he played Lieutenant Marino in the independent film The Tested, directed by Russell Costanzo.[16] In 2009, he made a cameo appearance alongside fellow Sopranos actor Steve Schirripa in the Stargate Atlantis episode "Vegas".[17]
He starred in Chicago Overcoat in 2009 as the main protagonist.[10]
In 2013, he starred in the hit IDW Publishing comic series "Killogy" [18] created by Life of Agony's Alan Robert as the character Sally Sno Cones alongside Marky Ramone of The Ramones. The series was nominated at the Ghastly Awards for Best Mini-Series and won multiple Horror Comic Awards from the Horror News Network. In 2014, the comics were adapted into a 3D animation for the "Killogy Animated Series" [19] in which the cast of the original comic series contributed their voices to.
Death
In early September 2017, Vincent suffered a heart attack.[20] He underwent open heart surgery in New Jersey on September 13, during which he died. He was 80 years old.[21]

Plot[edit]
Gloria (Sofia Vergara) and Jay (Ed O'Neill) try to organize a very special day for Manny (Rico Rodriguez) since it is his 14th birthday and as Gloria says, it is the last birthday they are going to be just the three of them. So, they plan a surprise party. While they are out of the house trying to get a cake, the rest of the family is at their home setting up the party. Manny, thinking that no one will be home, comes home with his new girlfriend (Krystal Gauvin) who as a birthday gift, kisses him. The problem is that they do not know that everyone is watching them. The girl feels embarrassed and runs away and Manny locks himself in his room. The day is not over yet as Gloria goes into labor. Now, Manny has to also share his birthday with his new baby brother.
Cam (Eric Stonestreet) feels he has neglected Lily (Aubrey Anderson-Emmons) lately with his commitment to work which Mitchell (Jesse Tyler Ferguson) interprets as his job not going well. In the meantime, Lily has asked Mitchell to marry her and that makes Cam think that Lily does not love him anymore. So, he organizes a second marriage for him and Lily and tries everything to win her back.
Meanwhile, Haley (Sarah Hyland) starts hanging out with a much older guy named Kenny (Jason Mantzoukas), wanting to get a rise out her parents. Claire (Julie Bowen) does not like it at all, while Phil (Ty Burrell) takes a while to realize that they are not just friends. In the process, he takes it extremely worse than Claire, who remembers that when she was at Haley's age she started dating an older guy to get a rise out her dad and she realizes that Haley is doing the same. So, she convinces Phil to ignore it and not say anything because the more they show it bothers them, the longer Haley is going to stay with him.
Reception[edit]
Ratings[edit]
In its original American broadcast, "Party Crasher" was watched by 11.01 million; down 1.03 from the previous episode.[1]
Reviews[edit]
"Party Crasher" received positive reviews.
Phil Dyess-Nugent of The A.V. Club gave a B- grade saying that the three interlocking family units remained stable since the show is on air for four years now but Gloria giving birth to a new baby is a big change for the whole show. "The show itself trades in the commonplace that the modern definition of "family" is in flux, but these families haven’t had to weather any major changes until tonight, when —tada!— Gloria has her baby."[2]
Leigh Raines of TV Fanatic rated "Party Crasher" with a 4.5/5 saying that this kind of Modern Family episode had been her favorite."This was my favorite kind of Modern Family episode. Things go from laughs to feeling tears prick at your eyes and little goosebumps of emotion. So happy to have a new addition to the family!"[3]
Zach Dionne from Vulture rated the episode with 5/5 saying that the episode was great. "Gloria has the baby and it’s not an episode-dominator or draw-too-many-times-from-the-cliché-well-er. This one brims most beautifully with sentiment that feels true, slapstick that works (entirely at Lily’s expense), and writing that glimmers like chrome. Barely a line feels wasted."[4]
Dalene Rovenstine of Paste Magazine rated the episode with 9.2/10 stating that Modern Family might didn't break ground with this episode, but it did what it used to succeed at so well. "A baby, a surprise birthday party, Manny’s first kiss, and references to "Stacy’s Mom" and Mrs. Robinson? "Party Crasher" was a packed-full half-hour that delivered touching family moments and heartfelt humor."[5]
Michael Adams of 411mania gave the episode 9/10. "I liked this episode. I liked the separate family story lines, as well as the final moment where they all got to meet the new family member, and were confused about their relationship towards the baby."[6]
Wyner C of Two Cents TV gave a good review to the episode saying: "I thought this episode killed it. I loved the touching moments and the funny ones. It was well balanced. Gloria gave birth but instead of making it the “main” event, it was just an event for the family – like in real life."[7]

The Girl on the Train (2015) is a psychological thriller novel by British author Paula Hawkins.[1] The novel debuted at No. 1 on The New York Times Fiction Best Sellers of 2015 list (combined print and e-book) dated 1 February 2015,[2] and remained in the top position for 13 consecutive weeks, until April 2015.[3] In January 2016 it became the No.1 best-seller again for two weeks. Many reviews referred to the book as "the next Gone Girl", referring to a popular 2012 psychological mystery with similar themes and use of unreliable narrators.[4][5]
By early March 2015, the novel had sold over 1 million copies,[6] and 1.5 million by April.[7] It has occupied the number one spot of the UK hardback book chart for 20 weeks, the longest any book has ever held the top spot.[8] By early August 2015, the book had sold more than 3 million copies in the US alone, and, by October 2016, an estimated 15 million copies worldwide.[9] The audiobook edition, narrated by Clare Corbett, Louise Brealey and India Fisher (released by Books on Tape) won the 2016 Audie Award for Audiobook of the Year.[10][11]
The film rights were acquired by DreamWorks Pictures in 2014 for Marc Platt Productions.[12] The film adaptation, starring Emily Blunt and directed by Tate Taylor, was released on 7 October 2016.

Plot[edit]
The story is a first-person narrative told from the point of view of three women: Rachel, Anna, and Megan.
Rachel Watson is a 32-year-old alcoholic, reeling from the end of her marriage to Tom, who left her for another woman, Anna Watson. Rachel's drinking has caused her to lose her job; she frequently binges and has blackouts. While drunk, she often harasses Tom, though she has little or no memory of these acts once she sobers up. Tom is now married to Anna and has a daughter with her, Evie – a situation that fuels Rachel's self-destructive tendencies, as it was her inability to conceive a child that began her spiral into alcoholism. Rachel follows her old routine of taking the train to London everyday; her train slowly passes her old house, where Tom, Anna, and Evie now live. She also begins watching from the train an attractive couple who live a few houses away from Tom. She idealizes their life, though she has no idea that their life is far from perfect. The wife of the couple, Megan Hipwell, has a troubled past. She finds her life boring, and escapes from her troubles by taking a series of lovers. Megan has sought help by seeing a therapist, Dr. Kamal Abdic. Eventually, she reveals to him a dark secret she has never confided to anyone before.
Anna is young, beautiful, in love with Tom, and happy as a stay-at-home mother to the young Evie. While at first she enjoyed the idea of showing off to Rachel that Tom picked her over Rachel, she eventually becomes furious at Rachel's harassment of her family. One day, Rachel is stunned to see Megan kissing another man. The next day, after heavy drinking, Rachel awakens to find herself bloody and injured, with no memories of the night before. She learns that Megan is missing, and is questioned by the police after Anna reports having seen her drunkenly staggering around the night of Megan's disappearance. Rachel becomes interested in the case and tells the police she thinks Megan was having an affair. She then contacts Megan's husband, Scott and tells him as well, lying that she and Megan were friends. Rachel learns that the man she saw kissing Megan was Kamal.
Rachel contacts Kamal, lying about her identity to get close to him and learn more about him. She makes a therapy appointment with him to see if he can help her recall the events that happened during her blackout that night. While Kamal suspects nothing, Rachel begins to gain insight into her life by speaking with him, inadvertently benefiting from the therapy. Her connections to Scott and Kamal, though built on lies, make her feel more important. She ends up not drinking for several days at a time but always relapses. Meanwhile, she continues to call, visit, and harass Tom. Megan's body is found; she is revealed to have been pregnant, and her unborn child was fathered by neither Scott nor Kamal. As Scott discovers Rachel's lies and lashes out at her, her memories become clearer. Rachel remembers seeing Megan get into Tom's car. Anna discovers that Tom and Megan were having an affair.
Rachel begins trusting her own memories more, and realises that many of the crazy things Tom told her she did while drunk never really happened. He had been gaslighting her for years, which made her question her sanity. Armed with this sad realisation, and the knowledge that he must have been the one who killed Megan, Rachel warns Anna. When Anna confronts him, Tom confesses to murdering Megan after she threatened to reveal that he had gotten her pregnant. Anna is cowed, fearing for her daughter's safety. Tom tries to beat and intimidate Rachel into keeping silent but she defies him and fights back. Knowing he is about to kill her, Rachel stabs Tom in the neck with a corkscrew. Anna helps Rachel make sure that he dies from the wound. When the police arrive, former adversaries Rachel and Anna support each other by co-ordinating their stories to explain their actions as self-defence.
Reception[edit]
The Girl on the Train received mostly positive reviews from critics and audiences alike. In 2015 it became the fastest-selling adult hardcover novel in history, and it spent over four months on the New York Times Bestseller List following its release.[7] Kirkus Reviews praised the novel with a starred review, writing that "even the most astute readers will be in for a shock as Hawkins slowly unspools the facts, exposing the harsh realities of love and obsession's inescapable links to violence." Subsequently, the novel was honoured by Kirkus Reviews as one of the best books of 2015, in the fiction category. The book also won the 2015 Goodreads Choice Award in the category Mystery & Thriller.[13]
In a less positive review for The New York Times, Jean Hanff Korelitz questioned the novel's narrative structure and criticised the protagonist for behaving "illogically, self-destructively, and narcissistically."[14]
The Girl on the Train has been compared frequently to Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, as both novels employ unreliable narrators and deal with suburban life.[1] Paula Hawkins has waved these comparisons off, however, saying in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter: "Amy Dunne is a psychopath, an incredibly controlling and manipulative, smart, cunning woman. [Rachel is] just a mess who can't do anything right."[15]

The foreign rights have been sold in 34 countries, and the book has been translated into many languages, including:

Film adaptation[edit]
Main article: The Girl on the Train (2016 film)
The film rights for the novel were acquired in March 2014 by DreamWorks Pictures and Marc Platt Productions, with Jared Leboff (a producer at Marc Platt) set to produce.[27] Tate Taylor, who directed The Help (2011), was announced as the director of this film in May 2015, with Erin Cressida Wilson as scriptwriter.[28] In June 2015, British actress Emily Blunt was in talks to portray Rachel.[29] Author Hawkins said in July 2015 that the film's setting would be moved from the UK to the US.[30] The film began production in the New York City area in October 2015.[31] The film was released on 7 October 2016.[32] It remains mostly faithful to events in the book; the only distinct difference is that Rachel realises the truth about Tom's accusations of her behavior, not because of her own efforts, but through a chance meeting with the wife of Tom's former manager, who reveals that Tom was actually fired from his job because of his numerous affairs at the office, rather than Rachel's having a violent breakdown at a party (In reality, Rachel simply drank too much and passed out in a guest room, until Tom made her leave).
Stage adaptation[edit]
A stage adaptation of the novel by Rachel Wagstaff and Duncan Abel made its world premiere in The Courtyard Theatre at the West Yorkshire Playhouse from 12 May to 9 June 2018. It stars Jill Halfpenny as Rachel Watson and is directed by Joe Murphy.[33]
