The New Age 1899-11-25 1
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with nouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of the archaic pro ...

Adolphus D
Adolf (also spelt Adolph or Adolphe, Adolfo and when Latinised Adolphus) is a given name used in German-speaking countries, Scandinavia, the Netherlands and Flanders, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Latin America and to a lesser extent in various Central European and East European countries with non-Germanic languages, such as Lithuanian Adolfas and Latvian Ādolfs. Adolphus can also appear as a surname, as in John Adolphus, the English historian. The female forms Adolphine and Adolpha are far more rare than the male names. The name is a compound derived from the Old High German ''Athalwolf'' (or ''Hadulf''), a composition of ''athal'', or ''adal'', meaning "noble" (or '' had(u)''-, meaning "battle, combat"), and ''wolf''. The name is cognate to the Anglo-Saxon name '' Æthelwulf'' (also Eadulf or Eadwulf). The name can also be derived from the ancient Germanic elements "Wald" meaning "power", "brightness" and wolf (Waldwulf). Due to negative associations with Adolf ...

List Of African-American Newspapers In Nevada
This is a list of African-American newspapers that have been published in the state of Nevada. Nevada was "the last state to remove itself from the list of states that have never had a Black newspaper" in the mid-20th century. While the late 19th century saw a flourishing African American press in many other Western states and territories, Nevada's African-American population at the time was very low, falling as low as 134 in 1900. As a result, during that early period, "no Negro-owned newspaper, even of the most ephemeral kind, was published in Nevada." Newspapers To be included in this list, a periodical should be mentioned in a reliable source as an African-American newspaper published in Nevada.

People's Observer
People's, branded as ''People's Viennaline'' until May 2018, and legally ''Altenrhein Luftfahrt GmbH'', is an Austrian airline headquartered in Vienna. It operates scheduled and charter passenger flights mainly from its base at St. Gallen-Altenrhein Airport in Switzerland. History Founded as People's Viennaline in 2010, the first revenue flight of the company took place on 27 March 2011. For several years, People's only operated a single scheduled route between its homebase and Vienna. However, the route network has since been expanded with some seasonal and charter services. In November 2016, People's inaugurated the world's shortest international jet route (and, after St. Maarten-Anguilla, second shortest international route overall). The flight from St. Gallen-Altenrhein Airport, Switzerland, to Friedrichshafen Airport, Germany, took only eight minutes of flight over Lake Constance and could have been booked individually. The airline faced severe criticism for this service f ...

Northwest Defender
The ''Clarion Defender'' was an African American run newspaper in Portland, Oregon. It operated from 1966 until around 1973 and was founded by Jimmy "Bang Bang" Walker. Its motto was, "Oldest Negro Publisher in the Northwest." The ''Northwest Clarion'', initially published between 1943 and 1961, was revived under the direction of civil rights advocate and African American journalist Jimmy "Bang-Bang" Walker. In January 1962, Jimmy "Bang-Bang" Walker took an investment of $15,000 and founded, edited, and published the ''Northwest Defender''. Five years later Walker took over the ''Northwest Clarion'', which had suspended publication, and renamed it the ''Clarion Defender''. The paper was alternately known as the ''Northwest Clarion Defender'' and ''New Northwest Clarion Defender''. It was located at 1223 NE Alberta Street (Portland, Oregon). In addition to the ''Clarion Defender'', the city also had the '' Portland Challenger'' (1952–54), the '' Portland Times'' (1918–20) ...
