Red star in center on a back blackground

The red star has been among the most widely used symbols throughout history, appearing on medieval coats of arms and modern flags. However, it is most strongly associated with communism and socialism, and in tandem with the hammer and sickle has become a powerful symbol to these ideologies. Originating from the Bolshevik Revolution and the Russian Civil War, the red star is thought to represent the five fingers of a worker’s hand, as well as the five continents, which emphasized communism’s worldwide appeal. Despite the collapse of the USSR, the red star remains a ubiquitous symbol on the coats of arms and flags of former socialist entities. 

The black flag has been historically associated with anarchism since the late 19th century. This black represents the rejection of all flags, and thus the rejection of nationhood. A red star over a black background emphasizes the shared tenets and ancestry between the two ideologies. For example, this combination is seen on the flag of the Zapatista Army of National Liberation, a far left anarcho-socialist militant group in Mexico.

Many hospitals in the United States are run by corporations who provide a healthcare service and charge the customers. In this situation, the total due from the customer largely depends on what level of health insurance the customer has and how much the insurance is willing to cover towards the bill. These are considered For-Profit hospitals because the hospital is charging someone a fee for a medical service, including life-saving services or natural services like birthing a child.

Non-Profit Health Care establishments, those which do not charge customers or patients, are primarily funded by donors or the community, such as charity, religion or research/educational agencies. Under this type of health care, they receive tax exemptions for the services they provide to their communities. These types of non-profits receive assets that belong to the community and do not belong to investors as do in For-Profit health care establishments. A well-known example is the Veterans Association hospital, which does not charge veteran patients for their medical bills.

Star Trek began as a television series and has since become one of the most popular science-fiction franchises. Set in the 23rd century, the series follows the adventures of the crew aboard the starship USS Enterprise, who are tasked with exploring space for new life and civilizations. Their mission began after the Vulcans, an advanced and benevolent alien species, gave humanity the technology to travel faster than light. The crew frequently encounter other alien species such as the belligerent Klingons. Despite the original series only spanning from 1966-1969, its popularity sparked a number of spin-off series and movies that continue to the present day.

Doctor Leonard McCoy is one of the crew members on board the USS Enterprise, serving as a physician, psychologist, biologist, and the chief medical officer. He is played in the original series by DeForest Kelley.

In 1938, The Union Commerce Bank, originally known as the Union Bank of Commerce, was founded in Cleveland, Ohio.

In 1949, the bank moved into the Union Trust Building located in downtown Cleveland. The bank endured financial troubles in the 1960s-1970s and ultimately was acquired by a larger Columbus-based company, Huntington Bancshares, in 1983.

Smurfs are happy, little woodland beings created by Belgian writer/illustrator Pierre “Peyo” Culliford (1926-1992). First introduced in the comic series Johan and Peewit in 1958, the Smurfs quickly grew in popularity gaining their own title in 1959, and a Belgian animated series that ran from 1961-1967. The Smurf’s breakthrough came with the introduction of the Smurfs to the American audience with the Hanna-Barbera cartoon Smurfs. Smurfs ran from 1981-1990, and cemented the adorable blue-skinned characters in American pop-culture lore. The Smurfs have since been featured in three full-length movies, as well as two animated short features. The Smurfs have made their triumphant return to television with a CGI animated series released in Belgium in May, 2021, and subsequently released in the United States in September, 2021, on Nickelodeon.
