The first season of Salem, an American horror–drama television series on WGN America, premiered on April 20, 2014, and concluded on July 13, 2014, consisting of thirteen episodes. Created for television by Adam Simon and Brannon Braga, who write or co-write episodes of the show, the series is based on the Salem Witch Trials. It was executive produced by Braga, Coby Greenberg and David Von Ancken, with Braga and Simon assuming the role of showrunner.
As the first original scripted show on WGN America, the pilot episode received 1.52 million viewers, and remained the network's highest-rated show throughout its first season run. The show was soon renewed for a second season. The season follows Mary Sibley, a witch conspiring with other witches to bring forth the Grand Rite, as she brings forth hysteria among the puritans of Salem. Her former flame, John Alden, returns after years of absence, complicating her wicked plan.
Salem is an Amtrak train station in Salem, Oregon, United States. It is served by the Amtrak Cascades and the Coast Starlight passenger trains.
This station was constructed for the Southern Pacific Railroad in 1918 and is the third station to be built at this location. The two previous stations were built in 1871 and 1889. The 1871 depot burned down in 1885. The Queen Anne-style 1889 depot burned down on March 5, 1917.
The current Beaux-Arts-style structure was constructed of masonry and is one of five masonry depots that still exist along the original Southern Pacific West Coast line. The other depots are in Albany, Medford, Roseburg and Eugene.
A restoration project by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) was completed in 2000. Amtrak leases the station from ODOT for $1 a year, in exchange for maintenance of the building and grounds.
An 1889 Railway Express Agency (REA) freight depot/baggage shed survived the fire that destroyed the previous station and is the oldest freight depot still in existence in the state. After the 1917 fire, the Queen Anne-style REA depot was relocated from its original site to south of the passenger station. The REA depot has not been used since the mid-1970s, and now awaits restoration.
Salem is a brand of cigarettes introduced in 1956 by the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company as the first filter-tipped menthol cigarette. Its name (along with that of the Winston brand) derives from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, the city where RJR was founded and headquartered. Salem cigarettes are unique in that they are blended with Asian Menthol rather than the traditional mainstream Menthol. It is currently a product of ITG Brands LLC, a subsidiary of Imperial Tobacco Company. In the 1983 prison movie Bad Boys , both Salem and Winston cigarettes are seen being offered to and purchased by Sean Penn's character.
Until the early 2000s, Salem was a sponsor of the Hong Kong Open, an ATP tennis tournament, which attracted a number of top ranking professional players. As a result of the sponsorship, it was titled the Salem Open. Salem also sponsored a number of events there including concerts throughout Asia.
In 2001, as with legislation restricting tobacco sponsorship in Hong Kong, the tournament sponsorship was proven to be controversial, when its official logo was altered to include the logo of Perrier, causing anti-smoking campaigners to claim that the organisers exploited a loophole in its sponsorship clause.
Die Hand, sie zögert und greift doch rein
nur beim ersten Mal konnte der Stolz kaum verzeihen
Du tust manche Dinge, wenn Dich Hunger überkommt
und dann tust Du's immer wieder, weil auch Hunger wiederkommt
Wo Gewalt zum Prinzip wird, muss es wohl so sein
und er isst dann Dinge, in die trittst Du nichtmal rein
un ich hör' Euch alle sagen: "durch's soziale Netz gefallen"
ich frage welches Netz?

DAS IST DAS ALTE, BRUTALE SPIEL DER SIEGER UND VERLIERER
NICHTS ZU REGULIEREN, ES WIEDERHOLT SICH IMMER WIEDER
FAHNEN WERDEN GEHISST, HEUTE FüR FREIHEIT UND MORGEN FASCHIST
NOCH NIE GAB ES EINE ZU SEHEN UNTER DER MENSCHEN AUFRECHT GEHEN
Die Hand, sie zögert und kriegt nie genug
die Register sind gezogen, alles voller Blut
in der Dritten Welt bricht eine Wirtschaft zusammen
er hat es gewusst und gewollt von Anfang an
Und selbst der schlimmste Mörder findet immer einen Grund
"das Problem des anderen" ist die Rechtfertigung
und er zeigt jedem hier, was man erreichen kann
Tradition ist der Motor und die Gier treibt ihn an
