Hulusi Sayın (28 April 1926 – 30 January 1991) was a general in the Turkish Gendarmerie, and may have been involved with the Gendarmerie's JITEM intelligence unit. He retired in 1989 and become an adviser to the Prime Minister's office. He was assassinated outside his home in January 1991; the assassination was claimed by Dev Sol, a leftist organization. At the time of his death Sayın was known to be advocating a peaceful solution to the Kurdish–Turkish conflict.
Sayın graduated from the Turkish Military Academy in 1948 and the Turkish Military College in 1964.
A high school in his home town is named for him.

Srivaikundam Duraisamy Subbulakshmi was an Indian actress and singer who was active in Tamil cinema during the 1930s and 1940s. She was the wife of film director K. Subramanyam. She is credited with having introduced the singer and family friend of hers, M. S. Subbulakshmi to Tamil cinema and mentored her in her early days.
Early life
S. D. Subbulakshmi was born in Srivaikundam to Duraisamy and Janaki Ammal. Since childhood, S. D. Subbulakshmi showed keen interest in stage dramas. The family moved to Madurai, where she learned carnatic music and dance. Her parents took photos of her in various makeups and showed them to a number of drama companies. This had assisted her to start as a child actress in stage plays. She grew up acting in stage dramas and managed to act in a number of dramas with well-known artists such as M. K. Thyagaraja Bhagavathar, K. B. Sundarambal and T. R. Mahalingam and earned a very good name. Pavalakkodi was one such drama where she had acted with M. K. Thiagaraja Bhagavather and became very famous.
Cinema life
Letchumanan Chettiar or Lena Chettiar of Krishna Pictures, who has seen the drama wanted to picturise the drama and requested K. Subrahmanyam to direct that film. Lena Chettiar and K. Subrahmanyam watched the drama together. K. Subrahmanyam suggested retaining the same artists who acted in drama to be in the film too and Lena Chettiar agreed to this. Through Pavalakkodi, S. D. Subbulakshmi entered into Tamil Cinema in 1934. She became a famous heroine in the 1930s till mid-1940s, then she switched to mother and supporting roles.
Introducing M. S. Subbulakshmi
S. D. Subbulakshmi became instrumental in introducing M. S. Subbulakshmi when she persuaded K. Subrahmanyam to give the daughter of her friend Madurai Shanmugavadivu, a chance on the concert stage at the exhibition he was organising in connection with the 1932 Mahamagam Festival in Kumbakonam. Thus, it was also K. Subrahmanyam who first helped to make M. S. Subbulakshmi a star in the world of song. It was on that stage that M. S. Subbulakshmi became a star.
Later, when he negotiated with Sadasivam for the film rights for a story serialised in Ananda Vikatan, starring M. S. Subbulakshmi in the film, she came almost as part of the package. Thus started M. S. Subbulakshmi's film career in Sevasadanam with S. D. Subbulakshmi guiding throughout.
Family life
S. D. Subbulakshmi married the lawyer turned director K. Subramanyam with the consent of his first wife Meenatchi. K. Subramanyam kept both families together and managed them without any discrimination between them. She had a son named Abaswaram Ramji.

The Lotus 34 is an open-wheel race car built by Team Lotus for the 1964 Indianapolis 500. Driven by Jim Clark, who qualified on pole, and Dan Gurney, tyre failure led to Clark retiring and Gurney being withdrawn.
Development history
The Lotus 34 was a very similar car to the 29. It differed principally in featuring a four-cam 4195 cc (255ci) DOHC Ford V8 with Hilborn fuel injection, producing , through a ZF 2DS20 gearbox.
Race history
At Indianapolis, Jim Clark qualified on pole, with Dan Gurney qualifying sixth. The Dunlop tyres failed during the race, leading to Clark crashing and Dan Gurney being withdrawn, much to Ford's displeasure. Later that year Parnelli Jones won twice in a Lotus 43 at Milwaukee and Trenton.
In 1965 A.J. Foyt won three USAC races in a Lotus 34 on his way to second in that years championship, while Parnelli Jones finished second at Indianapolis behind Jim Clark's Lotus 38.

In the United Kingdom, the term listed building refers to a building or other structure officially designated as being of special architectural, historical, or cultural significance; Grade I structures are those considered to be "buildings of exceptional interest". Listing was begun by a provision in the Town and Country Planning Act 1947. Once listed, strict limitations are imposed on the modifications allowed to a building's structure or fittings. In Wales, the authority for listing under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 rests with Cadw.

Richard Strauss composed his Symphony No. 1 in D minor (TrV 94) in 1880 when he was just 16 years old. It consists of four movements, and lasts about 34 minutes. Although Strauss did not give a number to the symphony, it is often referred to as his First Symphony. It was premiered on 30 March 1881 at the Munich Academy of Music under the baton of Hermann Levi.
Composition history
Strauss completed his musical studies with his composition teacher, Friedrich Wilhelm Meyer, in February 1880 (he was a conductor and had been hired as a private teacher by Richard's father Franz Strauss since 1875). By the age of 18, Strauss had composed nearly 150 works. Strauss wrote the symphony whilst attending school, from 12 March to 12 June 1880. He wrote to his mother "I'm getting on all right at school, the symphony is making jolly good progress, all four movements are finished now. I've scored the Scherzo and almost all of the first movement". The four movements are:
I. Andante Maestoso – Allegro Vivace.
II. Andante
III. Scherzo: Molto allegro, leggiero – Trio.
IV. Finale: Allegro Maestoso.
Scott Warfield wrote that "the symphony in D minor follows the same formal plans that Strauss had been studying for nearly five years. The outer movements are real sonata-allegro movements, now complete with true development sections. The slow movement draws on the same model and the Scherzo follows the standard binary form." The first movement opens with a fifty bar slow introduction, laying out thematic material used later. As Werbeck notes, within this introduction, Strauss goes through a series of modulations in which one two-bar theme is repeated in a sequence from D min, Bflat7, Eflat, B7, Emin, C, Fmin, Dflat, ending in F. This wandering tonality is in contrast to the otherwise conservative musical conception of the symphony, and perhaps prefigures the future Strauss. The exposition starts with a shift to 3/4, and the transition uses thematic material both from the first theme and the introduction. "This opening movement also contains the first genuine development section in any symphonic work by Strauss. His technique for development in this lengthy subsection (188 bars) consists primarily repeating the material...as it sequences through various harmonic levels. This section marks the first time that Strauss went beyond the safety of a codified formal plan". By the age of sixteen, Strauss was writing a symphony which "need not be excused as a "student" work". As David Hurwitz notes, Strauss had a rare mastery of orchestration and in particular writing for woodwind: "Colorful scoring that captivates the ear and never fatigues or bores the listener makes a work sound shorter than it really is, even one that has a rather stiff little fugue in the middle of its finale, as does the First Symphony."
These more recent views contrast with Norman Del Mar, who stated in his 1962 study that "...the symphony is essentially a student work. It is nevertheless well made and has several interesting ideas."
Performance history
The premiere was given at the Odeon concert hall in Munich as part of the subscription concert series of the Academy of music on 30 March 1881. The conductor was Hermann Levi, who was the musical director of the Munich Court opera from 1872–1896, and who was to premiere Richard Wagner's Parsifal in 1882.
Strauss' father Franz was much involved in the premiere, copying out all of the orchestral parts by hand and playing in the orchestra. Franz was so grateful to Levi for conducting the premiere, he asked how he could thank him. Levi "promptly seized the chance to ask the great horn-player to take part in the first performances of Parsifal at the Bayreuth festival in 1882". Despite his hostility to the works of Richard Wagner, Franz consented, taking his son Richard with him to the see Parsifal at Bayreuth.
The reviews of the premier were very positive, with the Muechner Neueste Nachritten of 3 April 1880 reporting that: The third of the Musical Academies subscription concerts included one new work, a symphony in D minor by Richard Strauss. The recent performance of his String quartet had already drawn our attention to the significant talent possessed by this young composer. The symphony, too, shows considerable competence in the treatment of the form as well as remarkable skill in orchestration. It must be said that the work cannot lay claim to any true originality, but it demonstrates throughout a fertile musical imagination, to which composition comes easily.
The piece was later performed on 5 August 1893 by the amateur Wilden Gung'l orchestra conducted by his father Franz Strauss and with whom Richard had briefly played in the violins. Although father Franz wanted to have more performances of the symphony, to build on its initial success, son Richard Strauss had moved on and rejected it "as unsuitable for further performance" He gave the Wilden Gung'l orchestra the autograph score of the symphony along with the exclusive rights to perform the piece. As a result, the symphony has rarely been performed.
There exist very few recordings of the piece.

In the history of thermodynamics, disgregation is an early formulation of the concept of entropy. It was defined in 1862 by Rudolf Clausius as the magnitude of the degree in which the molecules of a body are separated from each other. Disgregation was the stepping stone for Clausius to create the mathematical expression for the Second Law of Thermodynamics. Clausius modeled the concept on certain passages in French physicist Sadi Carnot's 1824 paper On the Motive Power of Fire which characterized the transformations of working substances (particles of a thermodynamic system) of an engine cycle, namely "mode of aggregation". The concept was later extended by Clausius in 1865 in the formulation of entropy, and in Ludwig Boltzmann's 1870s developments including the diversities of the motions of the microscopic constituents of matter, described in terms of order and disorder. In 1949, Edward Armand Guggenheim developed the concept of energy dispersal. The terms disgregation and dispersal are near in meaning.
Historical context
In 1824, French physicist Sadi Carnot assumed that heat, like a substance, cannot be diminished in quantity and that it cannot increase. Specifically, he states that in a complete engine cycle ‘that when a body has experienced any changes, and when after a certain number of transformations it returns to precisely its original state, that is, to that state considered in respect to density, to temperature, to mode of aggregation, let us suppose, I say that this body is found to contain the same quantity of heat that it contained at first, or else that the quantities of heat absorbed or set free in these different transformations are exactly compensated.’ Furthermore, he states that ‘this fact has never been called into question’ and ‘to deny this would overthrow the whole theory of heat to which it serves as a basis.’ This famous sentence, which Carnot spent fifteen years thinking about, marks the start of thermodynamics and signals the slow transition from the older caloric theory to the newer kinetic theory, in which heat is a type of energy in transit.
In 1862, Clausius defined what is now known as entropy or the energetic effects related to irreversibility as the “equivalence-values of transformations” in a thermodynamic cycle. Clausius then signifies the difference between “reversible” (ideal) and “irreversible” (real) processes:
Definition
In 1862, Clausius labelled the quantity of disgregation with the letter , and defined its change as the sum of changes in heat and enthalpy divided by the temperature of the system:
Clausius introduced disgregation in the following passage:
Equivalence-values of transformations
Clausius states what he calls the “theorem respecting the equivalence-values of the transformations” or what is now known as the second law of thermodynamics, as such:
Quantitatively, Clausius states the mathematical expression for this theorem is as follows. Let dQ be an element of the heat given up by the body to any reservoir of heat during its own changes, heat which it may absorb from a reservoir being here reckoned as negative, and T the absolute temperature of the body at the moment of giving up this heat, then the equation:
must be true for every reversible cyclical process, and the relation:
must hold good for every cyclical process which is in any way possible.
Verbal justification
Clausius then points out the inherent difficulty in the mental comprehension of this law by stating: "although the necessity of this theorem admits of strict mathematical proof if we start from the fundamental proposition above quoted, it thereby nevertheless retains an abstract form, in which it is with difficulty embraced by the mind, and we feel compelled to seek for the precise physical cause, of which this theorem is a consequence." The justification for this law, according to Clausius, is based on the following argument:
To elaborate on this, Clausius states that in all cases in which heat can perform mechanical work, these processes always admit to being reduced to the “alteration in some way or another of the arrangement of the constituent parts of the body.” To exemplify this, Clausius moves into a discussion of change of state of a body, i.e. solid, liquid, gas. For instance, he states, “when bodies are expanded by heat, their molecules being thus separated from each other: in this case the mutual attractions of the molecules on the one hand, and external opposing forces on the other, insofar as any such are in operation, have to be overcome. Again, the state of aggregation of bodies is altered by heat, solid bodies rendered liquid, and both solid and liquid bodies being rendered aeriform: here likewise internal forces, and in general external forces also, have to be overcome.”
Ice melting
Clausius discusses the example of the melting of ice, a classic example which is used in almost all chemistry books to this day, and explains a representation of the mechanical equivalent of work related to this energetic change mathematically:
Measurement
As it is difficult to obtain direct measures of the interior forces that the molecules of the body exert on each other, Clausius states that an indirect way to obtain quantitative measures of what is now called entropy is to calculate the work done in overcoming internal forces:
In the case of the interior forces, it would accordingly be difficult—even if we did not want to measure them, but only to represent them mathematically—to find a fitting expression for them which would admit of a simple determination of the magnitude. This difficulty, however, disappears if we take into calculation, not the forces themselves, but the mechanical work which, in any change of arrangement, is required to overcome them. The expressions for the quantities of work are simpler than those for the corresponding forces; for the quantities of work can be all expressed, without further secondary statements, by the numbers which, having reference to the same unit, can be added together, or subtracted from one another, however various the forces may be to which they refer.
It is therefore convenient to alter the form of the above law by introducing, instead of the forces themselves, the work done in overcoming them. In this form it reads as follows:

Edward Francis Jemison, Jr. (November 25, 1963) is an American film and television actor. He is known for his roles as Livingston Dell in the Ocean's film trilogy and Mickey Duka in The Punisher, as well as the television series Hung, iZombie and Chicago Med.
Early life
Jemison was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, the son of Rosalie (née Centanni) and Edward Francis Jemison, Sr. and is of Irish and Italian descent. He was raised in Kenner, Louisiana, and attended a Catholic secondary school, Archbishop Rummel High School. He graduated from Louisiana State University where he was a member of the Delta Chi fraternity.
Career
As an actor in films, Jemison's major breakthrough was the Ocean's franchise, a series of movies in which he played Livingston Dell. He made his directorial debut in 2013 with an independent film called King of Herrings, starring himself and longtime friends Joe Chrest and John Mese, who both also came out of LSU's theatre department. Jemison's wife, Laura Lamson, co-starred in the film as well.
Television career
In the mid-1990s, before launching a film career, he starred in a series of Bud Light commercials with the tagline "Yes, I am". This catchphrase, "Yes, I am," has stuck to Jemison over the years, to the point that he became a little weary of being the "Yes, I am" guy. Other major commercial credits for Jemison included a Wheaties commercial with basketball star Michael Jordan and an appearance alongside football star Joe Montana.
Online, Jemison starred in the web series Self Storage.
Jemison has also appeared on Late Night with David Letterman.

The Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC) is a fundraising bike-a-thon started in 1980 by Billy Starr to benefit the Dana–Farber Cancer Institute via the Jimmy Fund. It raises more money than any other single athletic fundraiser in the country.
History
Starr created the Pan-Mass Challenge in 1980, several years after his mother contracted melanoma. In its first year, the event raised $10,200 and had 36 riders, who rode from Springfield to Provincetown. The PMC was the first athletic fundraiser to require participants to guarantee their pledges with a personal credit card, a change that caused riders' delinquency rate to fall from 17 percent to 3 percent. The 2022 Pan-Mass Challenge, its 43rd annual event, featured more than 6,400 participants and raised $69 million, the single largest donation in the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute's history.
Notable past riders in the PMC include three-time Super Bowl champion Troy Brown, Joshua Bekenstein (a PMC board member), Dana-Farber CEO Laurie Glimcher, Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker, Boston mayor Marty Walsh, restaurateur Jody Adams, former Secretary of State John Kerry, Nobel laureate William Kaelin, Senator Scott Brown, Judge Samuel Zoll, Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne, and football player Joe Andruzzi.
Format
Each August, cyclists ride for one or two days, on one of 12 routes ranging from 25 to 192 miles long running through 47 Massachusetts towns. The longest route runs from Sturbridge to Provincetown. Some teams have "Pedal Partners", children who are currently receiving cancer treatment via the Jimmy Fund. Riders commit to raising between $600 and $8,000, depending on the route they will be riding. As of 2015, 75 percent of riders had previously participated in the event, and 1,100 had participated for 10 years or more.
In 2016 a new winter event, the PMC Winter Cycle, was created. Since 2018, it has been held inside Fenway Park. In 2022, the event featured hundreds of cyclists on stationary bikes and had a fundraising goal of $500,000.
Local PMC Kids Rides are held throughout the year.
In October 2022, more than 200 riders participated in the first PMC Unpaved event, a one-day, off-road gravel ride in the Berkshires.
Impact
The PMC generates more than 60% of the Jimmy Fund's annual revenue and is the Dana–Farber Cancer Institute's single largest donor. From 1980 to 2022, the event has raised a total of $900 million. This funding has been directed to cancer care and research, including helping fund the development of 41 cancer drugs. Since 2007, 100 percent of the money raised by riders goes to the Dana–Farber Cancer Institute, with all event overhead funded by sponsors, entry fees, and other income. In 2018, 200 sponsors provided $7 million in support.
Since its inception, the PMC has inspired various other athletic fundraising events that followed it, like Relay for Life for the American Cancer Society and Pelotonia for the James Cancer Center in Columbus, Ohio. , the Peer-to-Peer Professional Forum ranked the PMC as joint third-largest "a-thon" fundraiser, and the PMC grosses more than any other single event fundraiser.

The Boudin Bakery Tour, which opened with Disney California Adventure on February 8, 2001, is a tour that shows how sourdough bread is made, hosted by Boudin Bakery.
In January 2015, the Boudin Bakery Tour was given an update. The tour video screens were removed and the attraction is now self-guided and free-flowing. However, the introduction video about the history of sourdough bread remains. In addition, the attraction now includes a touchscreen trivia game.
Summary
After entering the building, a Disney cast member hands out two pieces of sourdough bread per person. The attraction includes a room with a video screen in front, in which Rosie O'Donnell and Colin Mochrie talk about the history of the bread. After this, guests are able to walk through hallways where they can look through glass windows at a real bakery facility and see sourdough bread being made.

The Society of Young Publishers (SYP) was founded in 1949. Its main aim is to enable publishers in the first ten years of their career to network, exchange ideas and learn more about the industry. Previously restricted to people under 36, the constitution was amended in 2007 to allow anybody "young to publishing" or an allied industry to join.
Headed up by an independent UK committee in charge of administration, the SYP is also composed of seven regional committees that run events in London, Oxford, Scotland, Ireland, Northern England, South West England and Wales. The current UK chairs are Michaela O'Callaghan (Trade Marketing Executive at Bounce Sales and Marketing) and Siobhan Humphries (Sales and Marketing Support at Raintree Publishing).
The SYP has been running a number of digital events since March 2020 and it is looking to open up further branches in the UK, as well as examining whether its model could be adopted in other countries. The SYP publishes the magazine InPrint four times a year, in addition to holding monthly speaker events and other social events. The SYP also hosts a biannual conference, which takes place in Scotland in the spring and alternates between London and Oxford in the autumn.

In the philosophy of artificial intelligence, GOFAI ("Good old fashioned artificial intelligence") is classical symbolic AI, as opposed to other approaches, such as neural networks, situated robotics, narrow symbolic AI or neuro-symbolic AI.
The term was coined by philosopher John Haugeland in his 1985 book Artificial Intelligence: The Very Idea.
Haugeland coined the term to address two questions:
Can GOFAI produce human level artificial intelligence in a machine?
Is GOFAI the primary method that brains use to display intelligence?
AI founder Herbert A. Simon speculated in 1963 that the answers to both these questions was "yes". His evidence was the performance of programs he had co-written, such as Logic Theorist and the General Problem Solver, and his psychological research on human problem solving.
AI research in the 1950s and 60s had an enormous influence on intellectual history: it inspired the cognitive revolution, led to the founding of the academic field of cognitive science, and was the essential example in the philosophical theories of computationalism, functionalism and cognitivism in ethics and the psychological theories of cognitivism and cognitive psychology. The specific aspect of AI research that led to this revolution was what Haugeland called "GOFAI".
Western rationalism
Haugeland places GOFAI within the rationalist tradition in western philosophy, which holds that abstract reason is the "highest" faculty, that it is what separates man from the animals, and that it is the most essential part of our intelligence. This assumption is present in Plato and Aristotle, in Shakespeare, Hobbes, Hume and Locke, it was central to the Enlightenment, to the logical positivists of the 1930s and to the computationalists and cognitivists of the 1960s. As Shakespeare wrote:
Symbolic AI in the 1960s was able to successfully simulate the process of high-level reasoning, including logical deduction, algebra, geometry, spatial reasoning and means-ends analysis, all of them in precise English sentences, just like the ones humans used when they reasoned. Many observers, including philosophers, psychologists and the AI researchers themselves became convinced that they had captured the essential features of intelligence. This was not just hubris or speculation -- this was entailed by rationalism. If it was not true, then it brings into question a large part of the entire Western philosophical tradition.
Continental philosophy, which included Nietzsche, Husserl, Heidegger and others, rejected rationalism and argued that our high-level reasoning was limited, prone to error, and that most of our abilities come from our intuitions, our culture, and from our instinctive feel for the situation. Philosophers who were familiar with this tradition were the first to criticize GOFAI and the assertion that it was sufficient for intelligence, such as Hubert Dreyfus and Haugeland.
Haugeland's GOFAI
Critics and supporters of Haugeland's position, from philosophy, psychology or AI research, have found it difficult to define "GOFAI" precisely, and thus the literature contains a variety of interpretations. Drew McDermott, for example, finds Haugeland's description of GOFAI "incoherent" and argues that GOFAI is a "myth".
Haugeland coined the term GOFAI in order to examine the philosophical implications of “the claims essential to all GOFAI theories”, which he listed as:
This is very similar to the sufficient side of the physical symbol systems hypothesis proposed by Herbert A. Simon and Allen Newell in 1963:
It is also similar to Hubert Dreyfus' "psychological assumption":
Haugeland's description of GOFAI refers to symbol manipulation governed by a set of instructions for manipulating the symbols. The "symbols" he refers to are discrete physical things that are assigned a definite semantics -- like <cat> and <mat>. They do not refer to signals, or unidentified numbers, or matrixes of unidentified numbers, or the zeros and ones of digital machinery. Thus, Haugeland's GOFAI does not include "good old fashioned" techniques such as cybernetics, perceptrons, dynamic programming or control theory or modern techniques such as neural networks or support vector machines.
These questions ask if GOFAI is sufficient for general intelligence -- they ask if there is nothing else required to create fully intelligent machines. Thus GOFAI, for Haugeland, does not include systems that combine symbolic AI with other techniques, such as neuro-symbolic AI, and also does not include narrow symbolic AI systems that are designed only to solve a specific problem and are not expected to exhibit general intelligence.
Replies
Replies from AI Scientists
Russell and Norvig wrote, in reference to Dreyfus and Haugeland:The technology they criticized came to be called Good Old-Fashioned AI (GOFAI). GOFAI corresponds to the simplest logical agent design ... and we saw ... that it is indeed difficult to capture every contingency of appropriate behavior in a set of necessary and sufficient logical rules; we called that the qualification problem.
Later symbolic AI work after the 1980's incorporated more robust approaches to open-ended domains such as probabilistic reasoning, non-monotonic reasoning, and machine learning.
Currently, most AI researchers believe deep learning, and more likely, a synthesis of neural and symbolic approaches (neuro-symbolic AI), will be required for general intelligence.

Herennia Cupressenia Etruscilla was Roman empress as the wife of Emperor Decius. She was the mother of Emperors Herennius Etruscus and Hostilian.
Life
As with most third-century Roman empresses, very little is known about her. She was probably from a senatorial family. It is assumed that her ancestors settled in Etrurian lands. Herennia married Decius probably before 230 and gained the title Augusta when Decius became emperor 249.
While information about her is scarce, coins with her portrait are numerous and easy to obtain. Legends on coins struck at Rome only ever give her name as 'Herennia Etruscilla' but billon tetradrachms struck at Alexandria supply the Cupressenia element in abbreviation: ΕΡ ΚΟΥΠ ΑΙΤΡΟΥCΚΙΛΑ (Greek: Her. Koup. Aitrouskila), showing that her full name was Herennia Cup(ressenia) Etruscilla. The Cupressenia element is expanded from the 'ΚΟΥΠ' in the Alexandria coin legends, from the Latin cupresseus "cypress tree" and symbol of Juno.

, also known as Go-Ono no Miya (後小野宮), was a Japanese statesman and aristocrat.
Biography
He was born the fourth son of Fujiwara no Tadatoshi. He became the adopted heir to his grandfather Saneyori, the head of Ononomiya family (小野宮家), and he inherited a vast estate and documents of the Ononomiya family.
He became udaijin (Minister of the Right) in 1021. Sanesuke had a thorough knowledge of customs and rites, so he was called Kenjin Ufu (賢人右府) (wise Udaijin).
He wrote the diary Shōyūki (小右記) for fifty years. He died at the age of 90.
Sanesuke is mentioned in the diary of Murasaki Shikibu, the author of Genji Monogatari. In it, she praises him for being out of the ordinary, and describes in detail a number of occasions of his superstitious behavior. In the Diary, Sanesuke is described as having summoned exorcists on a number of occasions, and employed children in the beating of gongs to cure him of illness or nightmares.
Family and issue
He was married to a daughter of Minamoto no Koremasa (descendant of Emperor Montoku), and also married to Princess Enshi (婉子女王), daughter of Imperial Prince Tamehira. She was a consort of Emperor Kazan and married to Sanesuke after the Emperor became a priest. Neither of these two marriages produced a child. He adopted nephews. Later in life, he fathered two children by maids.
Ryōen (良円) - priest
Chifuru (千古) (daughter) - married to Fujiwara no Kaneyori (son of Fujiwara no Yorimune)
Two adopted children are the sons of Fujiwara no Kanehira. Kanehira was Sanesuke's elder brother.

Emilio Faà di Bruno (7 March 1820 – 20 July 1866) was an Italian naval officer. He was born in the Kingdom of Sardinia and was a key figure in the unification of Italy and the creation of the Royal Italian Navy. Between 1863 and 1864 he toured the coast of North America, protecting Italian interests and engaging in naval diplomacy. He died at the Battle of Lissa.
First and Second Wars of Independence
Faà di Bruno was born in Alessandria to Lodovico, Marchese di Bruno, and Carolina Sappa de' Milanesi. His brothers were the missionary Giuseppe and the mathematician Francesco. Emilio entered the naval academy at Genoa as a youth and received his first experience at sea on the frigate Des Geneys. He reached the rank of ensign in 1837 and ensign first class in 1839. As a lieutenant, he participated in the First Italian War of Independence against the Austrian Empire in 1848–49. He served under Admiral Giuseppe Albini aboard the corvette Malfatano and the frigate San Michele in the Adriatic, during the search for the Austrian fleet between the mouths of the rivers Piave and Tagliamento and in the blockade of Trieste.
After the war, Faà di Bruno retired for family reasons, but he was recalled when the Conte di Cavour, then minister of the navy, appointed him naval attaché to the Sardinian embassy in London. There he met and, on 29 October 1851, married Agnes Huddleston. During the Second Italian War of Independence, he distinguished himself at the Siege of Gaeta (1860) and won the knight's cross (croce di cavaliere) of the Order of Saints Maurice and Lazarus.
North American voyage
After the second war, Faà di Bruno was promoted to the rank of frigate captain and given command of the steam corvette San Giovanni. On 23 February 1863, he departed from Genoa for Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, arriving on 20 May. There he inspected the ironclad Re d'Italia, then under construction for the Italian navy. He then steamed to New Orleans, where he unsuccessfully attempted to make his way up the shallow first stretch of the Mississippi River. He then steamed north to Canada, where the San Giovanni became the first Italian ship to enter Baffin Bay, and then turned south again and made his way to Rio de Janeiro, where he stayed several months giving support to the Italian community.
In 1865, Faà di Bruno was given command of the steam corvette Castelfidardo and began working with Admiral Giovanni Vacca in developing the navy into a world-class force. He was sent to Tunisia, where Admiral Albini had already stationed Italian forces, because trade disputes involving the European powers had sparked local unrest. He negotiated a compromise between Italian and Tunisian fishermen, earning himself a decoration from the Bey of Tunis, Muhammad III as-Sadiq.
Third War of Independence
Faà di Bruno was promoted to captain and was ordered to take command of the Re d'Italia, which he had inspected in the United States. In May 1866, at the start of the Third Italian War of Independence, he was ordered to join the fleet under Admiral Carlo Pellion di Persano at Taranto, from where they proceeded to Ancona. During the journey the Re d'Italia suffered a minor fire in the coal bunkers.
On July 20, while some of the fleet was bombarding the forts of Lissa, Admiral di Persano, with his flag aboard the Re d'Italia, sailed to meet the Austrian fleet under Wilhelm von Tegetthoff, transferring his flag to the Affondatore before the beginning of the battle. The Italian line faltered, and the centre—the Re d'Italia with Palestro and under Faà di Bruno—was isolated. First, the rudder of the Re d'Italia was hit, immobilising it; second, the SMS Erzherzog Ferdinand Max rammed her, punching an 18-foot hole in her side below the waterline. Having struck her colours, she sunk within minutes, with the loss of most of her crew. According to some reports, Faà di Bruno shot himself on the bridge before going down. The majority of historians are more inclined to accept the story of Commander Andrea del Santo, the deputy chief of staff to Persano, who recalled that Faà di Bruno jumped into the sea but was dragged under by the sinking ship. Some historians have accused Faà di Bruno of being a poor seaman, although an able fighter. Although the greatest blame for the loss at Lissa falls on Persano, it was Faà di Bruno who decided, upon sighting an enemy bow, to reverse course, losing headway and being caught almost at a standstill by the ramming Ferdinand Max.
On 15 August 1867, the Italian government awarded Faà di Bruno a Gold Medal of Military Valour, with the citation: "For his conduct in the naval operations at Lissa on the days of 18, 19 and 20 July 1866". Three vessels have been named after him:
Italian gunboat Faà di Bruno (1896)
Italian monitor Faà di Bruno (1917)
Italian submarine Comandante Faà di Bruno (1936)

The Sedleian Professor of Natural Philosophy is the name of a chair at the Mathematical Institute of the University of Oxford.
Overview
The Sedleian Chair was founded by Sir William Sedley who, by his will dated 20 October 1618, left the sum of £2,000 to the University of Oxford for purchase of lands for its endowment. Sedley's bequest took effect in 1621 with the purchase of an estate at Waddesdon in Buckinghamshire to produce the necessary income.
It is regarded as the oldest of Oxford's scientific chairs. Holders of the Sedleian Professorship have, since the mid 19th century, worked in a range of areas of applied mathematics and mathematical physics. They are simultaneously elected to fellowships at Queen's College, Oxford.
The Sedleian Professors in the past century have been Augustus Love (1899-1940), who was distinguished for his work in the mathematical theory of elasticity, Sydney Chapman (1946-1953), who is renowned for his contributions to the kinetic theory of gases and solar-terrestrial physics, George Temple (1953-1968), who made significant contributions to mathematical physics and the theory of generalized functions, Brooke Benjamin (1979-1995), who did highly influential work in the areas of mathematical analysis and fluid mechanics, and Sir John Ball (1996-2019), who is distinguished for his work in the mathematical theory of elasticity, materials science, the calculus of variations, and infinite-dimensional dynamical systems.

Lennon Wall (), in the Hong Kong context, originally referred to the mosaic wall created during the Umbrella Movement, located at Central Government Complex, Harcourt Road, Admiralty. The wall is one of the major artworks of the Umbrella Movement as a collective artistic work of spontaneous free expression, demanding democracy in the elections of the territory's top leaders.
It was a space of encouragement and solidarity, full of colourful Post-It notes (more than ten thousand pieces) with messages advocating for freedom, democracy and universal suffrage. Post types included epigrams, lyrics, poems, foreign words and hand-drawn graphics. During the 2014 Umbrella Movement protests, there were coordinated preservation efforts to digitally document the wall and related protest art.
After over two months of occupy actions by democracy activists, most of the artworks were removed from original positions prior to police clearance operations. Many protesters and citizens have tried to re-create some of the artworks, especially the Hong Kong Lennon Wall.
During the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests, new Lennon Walls appeared in numerous locations across the territory, typically near transport interchanges.
Lennon Wall in Prague
The original Lennon Wall was first created in Prague, Czechoslovakia, following the murder of John Lennon. It was filled with art as well as lyrics from the Beatles. In 1988, a year before the Velvet Revolution, this wall became a way for people to express irritation with the communist regime of Gustáv Husák. Since the 1980s, the wall has been continuously undergoing changes while the original portrait of John Lennon is long lost under layers of new paint.
Nowadays, the wall in Prague is a symbol of global ideals such as love and peace, which served as inspiration for the Hong Kong Lennon Wall of the 2014 Umbrella Movement. During the 2019 extradition bill protests that followed, Hong Kong democracy activist Marco Leung Ling-kit died, becoming a symbol for the movement. Within weeks, artists in Prague had painted a memorial on the wall, with an image of the yellow raincoat he was wearing during the banner drop that eventually led to a fall. Words of encouragement and solidarity were also written, including the famous phrase: "Hong Kong, Add oil."
History
Umbrella Movement
Police arrested a fourteen-year-old girl for drawing flowers on the wall with chalk, threatening her father with removal of custody, and not releasing her back to her family until 20 days later. She quickly became known as "Chalk Girl" (粉筆少女) when pictures of her drawing circulated on social media. Her lawyer, Patricia Ho, stated that the government response to a chalk drawing was "disproportionate" and that "police are using whatever mechanism they can think of to stop teenagers from participating in any protest." A short film about her story, titled "The Infamous Chalk Girl" was released in 2017.
29 September 2014
The day after the occupation started in Mong Kok, the occupation area expanded from Nathan Road and Argyle Street to Mong Kok Road, Sai Yeung Choi Street and so on. Vehicles were trapped because of the full-occupation of all six roadways in Nathan Road while many bus routes had to be rerouted. Meanwhile, those trapped buses and discontinued bus stops became the place where protestors and citizens stuck their opinions of requesting the stepdown of CY Leung and the slogans to call for universal suffrage, which were written mainly on cardboard and papers instead of post tips, which became the prototype for the Lennon Wall in Admiralty.
1 October 2014
The Lennon Wall in Hong Kong was created by a group of post-80s social workers, Lee Shuk-ching and Chow Chi. They bought post-its and invited people to write down their hopes and reasons for stay after around three days after police had tried to disperse protesters by firing tear gas. The first post was "Why Are We Here?" . After that, they stuck their posts, left their pens and post-its, inviting others to write their wishes. The message board started to expand and eventually colonised the entire wall beside the staircase heading to the Hong Kong Central Government Offices. Following over ten thousand notes being stuck onto the wall, this wall became the focus of media. Since the theme and format were found to be similar to the Lennon Wall in Prague of Czech Republic, the banner of "Lennon Wall Hong Kong" was set on the outside wall of the staircase which turned the wall into one of the landmarks for the occupied area in Admiralty. The banner of Lennon Wall Hong Kong also became the Facebook page created by Lee Shuk-ching and Chow Chi for recording the posts on Lennon Wall later on as well.
18 October 2014
An internet version of Lennon Wall was developed as a historical database to record the Umbrella Movement. Due to the clearance action of police, the originator was apprehensive that those post-its would be obliterated. She decided to create an online Lennon Wall and convert approximate ten thousand post-its into electronic form.
13 December 2014
In the study room of Causeway Bay occupation site, some secondary school students who joined the Central occupation used expanded polystyrene to construct a mini Lennon Wall. As the police had already announced that it would proceed with the eviction of the Causeway Bay occupation area on 15 December, citizens went there and left their heartfelt wishes. It became a scenic spot for taking photos.
20 December 2014
In the stair outside Central Government Offices, citizens tried to rebuild the Lennon Wall. They stuck posters printed with "It is just the beginning", "We will be back" and "Umbrella Movement" on the wall. The staff of Leisure and Cultural Services Development attempted to stop them. Although police noticed their action, police did not take action to interfere.
2019 anti-extradition bill protests
Background
During the series of protests against the China-Extradition bill beginning on 9 June, the original Lennon Wall has been once again set up in front of the Hong Kong Central Government Offices staircase. During the months of June and July, Lennon Walls with similar encouraging messages written on post-it notes and regular paper have been put up throughout the entire Hong Kong. This is referred to as "blossoming everywhere" ().
Known neighbourhood Lennon Walls include Sheung Shui, Tin Shui Wai, Sha Tin, Fanling, Ma On Shan, Tsing Yi, Tung Chung, Tai Po, Sai Ying Pun, Shek Tong Tsui, Causeway Bay, Sai Wan Ho, Chai Wan, Choi Hung, Wong Tai Sin, Kwun Tong, Mei Foo, Kowloon Bay, Whampoa, and Tai Kok Tsui, as well as many others on Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, and outlying islands. There are even some Lennon Walls located inside government offices, including RTHK and the Policy Innovation and Co-ordination Office. According to a crowd-sourced map of Hong Kong, there are over 150 Lennon Walls throughout the region.
Lennon Walls have also appeared outside of Hong Kong in the cities of: Toronto, Vancouver BC, Tokyo, Berlin, London, Melbourne, Manchester, Sydney, and Taipei. Messages of solidarity for the Hong Kong democracy movement have also been added to the very first and oldest Lennon Wall in Prague.
Events
At midnight on 9 July, more than 200 police officers equipped with shields and helmets stormed into the Tai Po subway that hosted the popular Tai Po Lennon Walls. Police photographed and removed several pieces of paper that allegedly contained the personal information of an officer who, while on duty on 8 July, challenged a peaceful protester to "remember me, and have a fight with me."
Several Lennon Walls around Hong Kong have been reportedly vandalised within the first few days of being set up. To prevent vandalism, the Mong Kok Lennon Wall is situated at a private property with warning messages to ward off vandals.
On 10 July hundreds of people gathered near the Lennon Wall by the Yau Tong MTR station in Kowloon, after word spread that local residents, suspected of being off-duty policemen from the nearby Yau Mei Court, were threatening pro-democracy youth who were tidying up the wall. Police later arrived, and the conflict persisted for several hours; a handful of arrests were made by the end of the night, including the arrests of two retired police officers for assaulting democracy activists. On the next day, a pro-Beijing middle-aged man was arrested for physically assaulting two victims, one of which refused to defend himself or retaliate, when he attempted to tear the sticky notes from a Lennon Wall near Kowloon Bay.
Influence around the world
In 2019 and after, Lennon Wall installations sprang up around the world in support of Hong Kong protests against a proposed law to allow easier extradition of criminal suspects to Mainland China.

San Michele Arcangelo ai Minoriti is a Roman Catholic parish church and attached monastery in the city center of Catania, region of Sicily, Italy. The former monastery, to the left of the facade, now houses shops on the ground-floor, and above are the offices of the Provincial government and the Prefettura or Prefecture (National office in province).
History
The Clerics Regular Minor, or Adorno Fathers, known in Italy as Caracciolini after their founder, Saint Francesco Caracciolo, and in Catania as Minoriti was an order of priests and brothers, approved by the pope in 1588, and mainly dedicated to pastoral care of the infirm and needy. They first came to Catania in 1625, on the invitation by the bishop Innocenzo Massimo. In 1628, they were assigned an old church dedicated to St Michael Archangel, located on what is now via Aetna. In 1630, the aristocrat Giambattista Paternò endowed the order with his inheritance. Like most of the town, the 1693 earthquake levelled the prior church, and the minorites commissioned a new church and monastery. The reconstruction was patronized by father superior Bartolomeo Asmundo, who survived the earthquake. The monastery was suppressed in 1866, and the property occupied by the deputies of the provincial council and the prefecture.
There is a second nearby church, now a parish church, with associated smaller convent that belonged to the friars of the same order: the church of the Immacolata Concezione Beata Maria vergine ai Minoritelli on via Gesualdo Clemente 11. That small Baroque church is also notable for being attached to an arch from the original Roman aqueduct of Catania.
Description
The new church was designed by Stefano Ittar, and completed by Francesco Battaglia. The convent was mainly built by Battaglia. Flanking the facade on the left, atop the first story pediment is a statue of the blessed Bartolomeo Simorilli, first provost of the Catania church. On the same spot on the right once stood a statue of St Francis Caracciolo (founder of Minoriti order), but it was destroyed by Allied World War II bombardment. The pilaster-rich Baroque facade has a marble stairway, which internally leads to a double staircase. The interior has a central nave and two aisles. The cupola, begun in 1771, as completed in 1787. It is covered inside with blue tiles, that have a shimmering sky blue color on sunny days.
In the southern nave is an altarpiece depicting St Agatha of Sicily pleads for the sparing of Catania by Marcello Leopardi. He also painted two other altarpieces: one of the Glory of St Joseph and of St Francesco Caracciolo, the latter completed by Leopardi's pupil Ferreri. There is also an altarpiece depicting Angel St Raphael and Tobias by
Giovannina M. Piazza. There is an altarpiece depicting the Virgin of the Annunciation by Guglielmo Borremans. The main altar is surrounded by wooden stalls for the monks. The organ is richly decorated.

Abdul Majid Daryabadi (16 March 1892 – 6 January 1977) was an Islamic scholar, philosopher, writer, critic, researcher, journalist and exegete of the Quran in Indian subcontinent in the 20th century. He was as one of the most influential Indian Muslim scholar and was much concerned with modernism and comparative religions and orientalism in India. In his early life, he became sceptical of religion and called himself a "rationalist". For almost nine years, he remained away from religion but repented and became a devout Muslim. He was actively associated with the Khilafat Movement, Royal Asiatic Society, Aligarh Muslim University, Nadwatul Ulama, Darul Musannefin Shibli Academy and several other leading Islamic and literary organisations. He was disciple of Ashraf Ali Thanwi and Hussain Ahmed Madani.
Throughout his academic career he edited the Urdu weekly Sidq-e-Jaded, which was acclaimed in the Indo-Pak subcontinent for its inspiring message and stylistic features. He continued to edit the journal until his death. He had a unique style of writing which was expressive and tinged with humor and sarcasm. He was influenced by Ashraf Ali Thanwi to write a Tafsir and then he wrote a famous Tafsir in English first then in Urdu named Tafseer-e-Majidi. He wanted to purify the Muslims thinking to understand and implement true Islamic teachings and free from "foreign" and "un-Islamic" elements and to review the decision of previous scholars before blindly accepting them. In 1967, he got the Arabic Scholar Award from the Government of India. In 1975, the Aligarh Muslim University awarded him a Doctorate in Literature. He died in January 1977.
Life and family
Abdul Majid Daryabadi is being well known and more famous by his birthplace Daryabad. Therefore, he has been called Daryabadi in relation to his birthplace, Daryabad. His father is Abdul Qadir (1848-1912) ibn Mufti Mazhar Karim Qudwai (d.1873) Ibn Shaykh Mukhdum Bakhsh. He was born on 16 March 1892 at Daryabad, a wellknown Indian town in Barabanki district, Uttar Pradesh, India. Therefore, popularly he was called Daryabadi with the name of his place of birth. He came from anoble Qidwai family. The name of his race is Qidwai or Qudwai in Arabic. It is one of the branches of Israelites. His topmost ancestor was a Chief Justice named Qadi Shykh Muizuddin. It was the time of tenth century; he came to India in the reign of Mahmud Ghaznawi (971-1030) with an unknown troop and settled at Ayodhya, district of Faizabad. He was called Qudwatul Ilm waddin and in general he was called Qadi Qidwah. He was contemporary of Mahmud Ghaznawi. Daryabadis ancestor Qadi Muizuddins graveyard is near Babri Masjid. Daryabadis family had a long-standing tradition of spiritual leadership. A number of his ancestors were leaders of Sufi Orders. His father was also a follower of Qadiriyya Sufi Order. His mother's name is Bibi NaSirun Nisa. She was also from Qudwai ancestry. Her father that means Daryabadis maternal grandfather was elder brother of Daryabadis grandfather Mufti Mazhar Karim Qudwai. So, his father married to his cousin. His maternal grandfather was the resident at Lucknow. Therefore, Lucknow became his second home. His father was also born in Lucknow. He was the youngest son of his family among five siblings. His father was the youngest son of his family too. While he wrote his autobiography named Aap Biti, he noticed that only one elder brother named Abdul Majid (d.1951) and one elder sister named Zarifunnisa (d.1945) were alive. Later his sister's name is changed into Bibi Sakina.
Education
His first education started in 1895 at his home. In that time he was four years old, but he were looking five due to his health. He was brought up in a religious environment. He learnt Arabic and Persian at home. His father had a good command in Arabic and Persian language. Therefore, he read out the Quran and deferent books in Persian, like Gulistan, Bustan and Sikandarnamah, Kimiya-i-Saadat of Imam Ghazzali and Yusuf Zulaykha of Mullah Jami. Daryabadi also learnt Arabic language at that time. Then he was admitted to Sitapur High School. He continued his school education there up to class ten from 1902 to 1908. Therefore, he matriculated from Sitapur High School in 1908 with second division. At that time, this was Called Entrance. Then it was become Matriculation and then High School Certificate (HSC). He learnt Arabic language from Hakim Muhammad Zaki and Maulavi Azmatullah. His house tutor was Hakim Muhammad Ali Atahar Dihlawi. He learnt Urdu from Maulavi Muhammad Ismail Miritih and English from a Hindu teacher, whose name is unknown. The school was nearest to his house. Two Muslim teachers among the 10-12 teachers were in this school, Mirza Muhammad Zakir Lucknawi and Maulavi Sayyid Haydar Hussayn Lucknawi. Both of them were Shiah Muslims in faith. Daryabadi took Arabic with the advice of Mirza Muhammad Zaki and a famous teacher of Firinghi Mahal Maulavi Azmatullah. Therefore, Abdul Majid Daryabadi continued his primary education up to class ten at Sitapur High School. In July 1908, after passing the matriculation examination, he was admitted at Canning College, Lucknow in intermediate level. Later this college was become Lucknow University after 12 years in 1920. At that time, all colleges of Lucknow were under Allahabad University (estd. 1887). The subjects in his intermediate level were; Logic, History, Arabic and compulsory subject was English. He passed intermediate (HSC) with second division in 1910. Then he was admitted in B.A. (honours) in Philosophy at that college in 1910. The subjects in his BA (honours) were English (text), General English, Philosophy and Arabic. First two were compulsory. Than Metaphysics, Ethics and Psychology were included in three branches of Philosophy. He was very much interested in Psychology. Selective writings of Ibn Khaldun, Maqamat-i-Hariri, Maqamat-i-Badiuzzaman Hamadani, Mutanabbi and Abu Tamam were included in Arabic language and Arabic Literature. On April in 1912, he appeared in BA (honours) examination. Therefore, he went to Allahabad for appearing to BA final exam, under Allahabad University (estd. 1887). The result published on June in 1912 and he obtained second class in B.A. (honours). Therefore, he graduated in 1912. In that time, he exposed himself to the rationalist and an agnostic. He had a natural taste for Philosophy. However, during his time, there is no M.A. course in Philosophy except two Universities. One was Banaras Hindu University (estd. 1915) and other was Aligarh Muslim University (estd. 1920). Then he decided to go to Aligarh and got admitted in M.A. course in Philosophy. On March, in 1913 the first-year examination of MA was held, but he failed. Then he was admitted in St. Stephen's College, Delhi in 1913 to continue his MA in philosophy. However, he could not pursue his studies for long time and ought to stop his higher education midway due to his father's death in the time of performing his Haj in 1912. In that time, Daryabadi was 20 years old. He had none of his relatives to defray the expenses of his education. However, his father handed him over his father's intimate friend Raja Sahib Mahmud Abad before going for his pilgrimage. He had not come back home after completing his pilgrimage, because he died during his pilgrimage. In addition, meanwhile the Peoples Bank was become bankrupted. In this reason, the whole of his father's deposited money was lost. Therefore, he could not pursue his object. From this event and this situation, it was realized that perhaps none of his relatives or nearest persons were rich and wealthy to bear the expenditure of his studies. Then he entered the field of job. In 1918, he took to a study of Buddhism and Theosophy. Later, in his own words, he progressively became a Muslim under the influence of Ashraf Ali Thanwi, the famous Urdu poet Akbar Allahabadi. He was associated with Khilafat Conference at Lucknow in 1927 and was president of the Oudh Khilafat Committee.
Received the title 'Maulana'
Abdul Majid Daryabadi has not educated from Madrasah education, but the Arabic language and literature were always text course in Daryabadis studies at Canning College, Lucknow. He passed from Canning College in 1912 with Arabic. In this why, he knew Arabic very well and he had good command in English and deep knowledge in Psychology, Philosophy and Logic. When he was a college student at the age of 15/16, he wrote two articles, first is named; Mahmud Ghaznavi and second is Ghadha-i Insani. Both the articles have been published at weekly magazine Wakil of Amritsar. Later the Wakil Book Agency had published his first two articles in the shape of booklet in 1910. The two articles are very much authentic and have literary values. After the evaluation of these two articles, Wakil Book Agency had given him a title "Mawlana" and sent a letter to him. After that they had written first his name Maulana Abdul Majid Daryabadiin spite of his name Abdul Majid Daryabadi and printed the name of writer Mawlana Abdul Majid Daryabadi on the cover page of the booklet, while he was a college student. However, the title "Maulana", he did not accept because at that time he became agnostic and rationalist that means the duration of his rationalism from 1909 to 1918. In that time he wrote and introduced himself Mr. Abdul Majid rather than Mawlana. However, the time of his childhood and youth was in Islam. After that time, he came back to Islam by the influence of Haji Warith Ali Shah, Akbar Ilah Abadi, Maulana Muhammad Ali Jawhar and Rishi Bahgwan Das. They were the influential persons who had done appreciable work to come back him to Islam. In a result, he has contributed the Muslim communuty by the Tafsir Literature.

First he worked at Udh Panch (pub.1877, Lucknow), then at Al-Hilal (pub.1912, Kalkata), Jamindar (pub.1912, Lahore), Hamdard (pub. 1913, Delhi). Then he started a weekly magazine Sach from Lucknow in 1925 and he was an editor of it. It had been continued up to 1933. Then in 1933, he stopped this weekly in due to involve deeply in writing an English translation and commentary of the Quran. Then in 1935, he changed this weekly into Sidq, then he finally changed it into Sidq-e-Jadid in 1950 and he was an editor of it until his death in 1977. Now, it has been edited and published from Lucknow by his son in law and his nephew Hakim Abdul Qawi Daryabadi.

Views and thoughts
Inclination into dubiousness and disbelief
Abdul Majid Daryabadi was from a noble family. His primary education was in a religious environment. His father was a pious Muslim. However, from his College life, he met the rationalist school of the west and became a rationalist and an agnostic. Gradually suspicion and disbelief started in his thought and faith. He read out the books of Atheists and Orientalists, like famous Greek philosophers; Plato, Aristotle, Socrates and Dicard etc. He was specially zeal of Bacon, Hume, Locke, Mill, Baikal, Spenser, Huxley, Darwin, William James etc. The Book of Psychology by William James was included in his course. He already read out the Principles of Psychology of William James. In this reason, his Islamic belief became convulsed. Then, he converted into Atheism and focused himself as an Atheist among the Muslims. 20th century was the time of freethinking and rationalism. In this condition, in 1910AC, while he filled up his form of intermediate final examination, he wrote Rationalist in spite of the word Muslim in the option of religion. In that time, he felt shame to introduce himself as a Muslim. In addition, at the period of college life, he wrote many books in Philosophy. He focused rationalistic thoughts and western philosophical thoughts in those books. However, after returning to Islam he felt shame himself about his rationalistic writings. About his suspicion, the famous Urdu poet Akbar Alahabadi said, "Changing of teaching will change the mind."
Period of rationalism
Daryabadi brought up in a religious environment. However, the environment of his school influenced him to become a rationalist. He realized and felt shame about the deprived period from the light of the revealed knowledge of his life. The period is approximately ten years, from 1909 AC to 1918 AC of his important young life. He was a rationalist and an agnostic, but a Muslim by name, not in practicing Muslim. In the contrary, he supported having beef, writing and discussion about Islam. In Daryabadis memoirs he wrote, "Perhaps on October in 1911, a big conference was organized at Lucknow. Great speakers and Missionaries gathered there. Famous debater Dr. Zuemer was present there, who was good in Arabic like English. I went there to meet Dr. Zuemer with his friend Abdul Bari Nadvi. Discussion started, father of Church asked on Islam insulting. Nadwi answered in Arabic, but I answered in English in favour of Islam.
Return to Islam
In 1918, he took to a study of Buddhism and Theosophy. Later, he became a Muslim under the influence of Ashraf Ali Thanawi (1863-1943). In addition, he has been influenced by renowned Indian writers and scholars; Sibli Numani (1857-1914), a famous Urdu poet Akbar Alahabadi (1846-1921), Muhammad Ali Jawhar (1878-1931), Abdul Bari Nadawi (1886-1976), Sulayman Nadawi (1884-1953), Bagwan Das (Banaras), and Gandhi (1869-1948). He wrote about his disbelieving life and turning point to Islam in his Muasirin (contemporaries) that "It was 1909AC through reading English books written by agnostics, I had turned from a good believer to a heretic … My apostasy has been continued till 1918AC… At that time, I read the English Quran Commentary by Muhammad Ali of Lahore. It convinced me that the Quran is no collection of hearsay stories, but a collection of deep and sublime truths, and if it was not heavenly, it was almost heavenly."
He was inspired and influences spiritually by Abdul Ahad Kasmundawi, Abid Husayn Fatehpuri and Husayn Ahmad Madani (to take the oath of allegiance on him), Iqbal, Haji Muhammad Safi Bajnuri (d.1951 at Makka). From his memoirs he wrote about famous poet Akbar Alahabadi, "One day he told me that why I had Arabic in my college course? Have I any relation to! I replied him that now I have no time to read and write on it. He replied me that the literary status of the Quran is being recognized to the people of Europe, he heard that the last fifteen Para of the Quran are included in the course of literature in Garman University. He advised me that to leave it and try to understand it and I might have relation to the Quran and whatever I like the part of the Quran to read daily. This was his part of Tabligh."
Once upon a time Daryabadi praised about a famous realistic writer and psychologist Willium Zamj and a philosopher Mill in front of Akbar Alahabadi. Daryabadi said, "He is not at present physically alive, but he is present in the whole world. In all languages, Mill was the greatest person. Akbar Alahabadi replied with smiling, "write down about Mill on a paper and put date on today. Ten years later, I will ask you about your praise of Mill." No ten but after three years Daryabadi became free from his past thought. Then he returned to Islam as a complete Muslim. After returning into Islam, he felt shame during his life of rationalism and writings in that time.
Daryabadi wrote in Muasirin, "One day when I became a Muslim de novo and a guest of Akbar Alahabadi, then the first time I joined with him at Juhr prayer. He became happy, prayed to Allah for me,and told that your late father will be happy by the Angles to hear the news of your prayer.
Abdul Majid Daryabadi went through a critical phase of communist ideals in his life and a time came when he was about to indulge himself with the Bhagwad Gita. Meanwhile, a friend suggested him that he should try to study the Mathnawi of Mawlana Jalaluddin Rumi. After reading Mathnawi, his inner world was radically changed. Then he commented on that if he were to die then and on being questioned by the angels about his din, he would answer them with the reference of the Mathnawi that his din complied as mentioned in the book and he knew no further, then he was deeply connected with Ashraf Ali Thanawi and Qari Tayyab. Later from his contemporaries like Abdul Bari Nadwi and Manazir Ahsan Gilani.
His doctrine (Mazhab)
He was the follower of Imam Abu Hanifahs mode of life that means his doctrine was Mazhab (school of thoughts) of Hanafi. There are four schools of thoughts (Mazahib) in Islam. Those are recognized by Ahl al-Sunnah wal Jamaah. The followers of one of these four Mazahib are included in Ahl al-Sunnah wal Jamaah. He has interpreted in whole of his tafsir in the light of Hanafi School of thoughts and denoted the acceptance and difference of the Hanafi School of thoughts. He established the Hanafi School of thoughts and flourished as the best one.
His consciousness in politics
He was involved in the movement against English rulers. His grandfather was jailed of nine years for the movement against English rulers in 1857. When the demand of freedom of India was waving, his thinking was changed and inclined to the Congress. In 1909, published Al-Hilal, edited by Abul Kalam Azad. In that time, the weekly Muslim Gusset, was published, patronized by Shibli Numani (1857-1914). The writings of these dailies and weeklies were printed in favour of the movement of freedom of India. He joined in the seating of the movement of freedom with curiosity in Lucknow. His curiosity in politics was run from 1913 to 1916. In December 1916, the annual meeting of Congress was organized tumultuously in Lucknow. He joined here with simple amusement and just looking the outside and inside of the meeting. He was related to Muhammad Alis English journal Comrade and Urdu journal Hamdard. He read out his writings with interest. He sent some translations of English articles on the topic of political situation. Those were in critical discussions on the method of politics. In 1917, English rulers arrested some cosmopolitan persons due to the movement against the state. In this reason he involved in politics with a feelings of duty of the nation. In 1919, the meetings of the Khilafat Movement were arranged and processions were run in many places. He was inclined into Gandhi (1869-1948) and Muhammad Ali (1878-1931). He joined in these meetings. He got an opportunity to meet Gandhi in 1922, in the annual function of Khaja Ajmiri (1141-1236). In that time, Muhammad Ali (1878-1931) was in jail. After released on August or September in 1923, he met him at Bhuwali. Then, on December in 1923, he was elected as president of the Congress, Daryabadi went to Aligarh and he translated the other speech of president into Urdu. In 1931, after the death of Muhammad Ali, he detached himself from political activities, he devoted in journalism and writing books in Islam. In this reason the younger brother of Muhammad Ali, Shawkat Ali sent to him a letter with comment and requested him to come back to the political activities and organize the movement against the British Rules to established the rights of Muslims.
Finality of Prophet Hoods
According to the Quran, Prophet Muhammad is the last prophet of Allah. A number of the Prophetic traditions also support this Quranic viewpoint but some false prophets appeared during last fifteen centuries among the Muslims. Daryabadi has not accepted any possibility of revelation after Prophet of Islam. A person claimed to be an apostolic prophet in the Punjab during colonial rule. Daryabadi thought it necessary to emphasis the belief in the finality of prophet hood and rejected any claim for the office of prophet hood after the last Apostle of Allah, Muhammad. He has discussed Musaylmah, the Liar and his defeat during the caliphate of the first Caliph Abu Bakr who was ultimately assassinated by his army. Daryabadi has refuted the false prophet of the Punjab vehemently. Commenting on the verse 5:3 he observes; This verse is indicated a clear argument for the Prophet as the last Prophet, because the religion has been finalized, perfect, true and completed and there is no room for changing in its injunction, which prevented the need of any new prophet. Allah has chosen for whole human in the world Islam as religion. So, he has interpreted in favour of this verse that completion of religion that means the finality of the Prophet. He strongly expressed in interpretation on the verse 33:40 that "closing the long line of apostles. He is not a prophet, but the Final Prophet and The last of the prophets".

The Graduate Providence is an upscale hotel that opened in 1922 as the Providence Biltmore Hotel, part of the Bowman-Biltmore Hotels chain. It is located on the southern corner of Kennedy Plaza at 11 Dorrance Street in downtown Providence, Rhode Island. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977 and is a member of Historic Hotels of America, the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
History
Early history
The Providence Biltmore was conceived by the Providence Chamber of Commerce and funded through a public campaign in which 1,800 citizens contributed to pay for the construction costs. The management contract for the hotel was awarded to the Bowman-Biltmore Hotels chain, founded by John McEntee Bowman and Louis Wallick. The hotel was built in the neo-Federal Beaux-arts style and designed by the architectural firm of Warren and Wetmore, who also designed Grand Central Terminal. The hotel opened to much fanfare on June 6, 1922, and was the second-tallest building in the city after the Rhode Island State House, until the Industrial Trust Tower was finished six years later.<ref>Woodward, Wm McKenzie. Guide to Providence Architecture. 1st ed. United States: 2003. . p. 99.</ref> Today, the Biltmore is the 9th-tallest building in the city.
The Biltmore was the city’s only luxury hotel and welcomed many famous (and infamous) guests over the course of the 20th century. Mobsters, bootleggers, celebrities and politicians frequented the hotel and its many restaurants and bars. The hotel was the backdrop for many Rhode Island political and social scandals over the years, many of which are documented in the book Meet Me At The Biltmore.
The Biltmore welcomed both black and white guests during a time when racial discrimination in public accommodations was common. Starting in 1941, the hotel paid for a listing in The Negro Motorist Green Book, a travel guide for Black travelers.
Middle years and decline
The Biltmore was bought by Sheraton Hotels in 1947 and renamed the Sheraton-Biltmore Hotel. Providence was flooded by Hurricane Carol in 1954, leaving much of the hotel's lobby underwater; a plaque commemorates the high water mark today, eight feet up on the lobby columns. Sheraton sold the hotel, along with seventeen other aging properties, to Gotham Hotels in 1968 and it became the Biltmore Hotel & Motor Inn. In 1975, amidst a flurry of lawsuits over tens of thousands of dollars of unpaid utility bills and back taxes, Gotham Hotels was forced to close the Biltmore. It remained vacant for four years.
Restoration
With the hotel facing demolition; Mayor Buddy Cianci helped with efforts to designate the hotel a landmark and assembled a group of local businessmen, including Bruce Sundlun of the Outlet Company, Michael Metcalf of The Providence Journal, G. William Miller of Textron, and Jim Winoker and Dominic Zinni of B.B. Greenberg Company, who purchased the hotel and implemented Federal tax credits to restore the hotel, reopening it in 1979 as the Biltmore Plaza Hotel. The Biltmore's external glass elevator was added during this renovation, and served all 18 floors of the hotel (though it no longer runs). In 1983, the owners retained Dunfey Hotels to manage the hotel, which was renamed Biltmore Plaza, A Dunfey Hotel. Soon after, Dunfey was reorganized as Omni Hotels, and the hotel was renamed the Omni Biltmore Hotel. By the 1990s, the Omni Biltmore was fully owned by The Providence Journal. They sold the hotel to the Grand Heritage Hotels chain in July 1995, for $7 million, and it was renamed the Providence Biltmore. The hotel was sold out of receivership on May 31, 2012 to Finard Coventry Hotel Management, for $16 million. Finard Coventry invested a further $10 million in renovations, and the hotel joined Curio, A Collection by Hilton, on December 16, 2014.
Graduate Providence
In October 2017, the Biltmore was sold to AJ Capital Partners, a Chicago-based hotel and real estate firm, for $43.6 million. The hotel was renovated and renamed Graduate Providence on April 2, 2019, as part of AJ Capital's boutique chain of "Graduate" hotels, in college towns across the United States. The new owners have retained the hotel's iconic neon "Biltmore" sign.
Description
The hotel was originally built with 600 rooms; later, walls were knocked down and suites were created. It now offers 292 guest rooms.
The hotel contains banquet space of over . The rooftop level Grand Ballroom offers expansive views of the city and Kennedy Plaza and can hold up to 750 guests; its event space is designed for functions such as wedding receptions, banquet service, and conferences.
It was the tallest and largest hotel in Providence for 71 years, until The Westin Providence (today known as the Omni Providence Hotel) was completed in 1993. The hotel was home to the largest Starbucks in New England from 2003-2019.
In popular culture
Cinema backdrop
The Providence Biltmore features prominently in the 2004 Jeff Nathanson film The Last Shot, and the 2007 Anne Fletcher film 27 Dresses.

Literature
In 2022, author Amanda Quay Blount published Meet Me At The Biltmore, a book chronicling the hotel's storied past alongside Providence’s highs and lows throughout the 20th century.

Unione Sportiva Dilettantistica Sebinia Alto Sebino (founded in 1940s and know only as Sebinia) is an Italian football team located in Lovere, between Val Camonica and Lake Iseo, in the province of Bergamo.
It currently plays in the Group C of Promozione (Italian 7th level) but in past, named of Sebinia Lovere, it plays two years in Serie C (Italian 3rd level) and three in Promozione Interregionale (at the time Italian 4th level) during the 1940s and 1950s.
History
The club was founded in the 1940s with the name of Sebinia Lovere. It was begun with the intention to become the most important football team of Lake Iseo.
After World War II the team might play, in season 1948, in Serie C, Italian 3rd level. The season started with the 0–0 against Monza. Sebinia arrived 8th but, for the championship reform, was all the same relegated in Promozione Interregionale.

Ondu Muttina Kathe () is a 1987 Indian Kannada language film directed by Shankar Nag, starring Rajkumar and Archana. It is based on John Steinbeck's 1947 novella The Pearl. This was the last directorial of Shankar Nag. It is also the only movie in which he directed Rajkumar, making him the youngest person to direct him.
The movie was not very successful but is still remembered for its screenplay and technical superiority. It is considered one of the cult classic movies in the history of Kannada cinema.
The film is notable for the underwater fighting sequence by Rajkumar at the age of 58 with a London-made artificial octopus shot in the Maldives ocean with a Canadian camera by a German cameraman. It was the first Indian film to have an underwater action sequence shot in an ocean outside India without the help of oxygen mask.
Premise
The movie narrates the tale of Aithu, a pearl diver, who has to face many problems when he decides to sell a precious pearl which he finds in the ocean.
Cast
Rajkumar as Aithu
Archana as Kaaki
Shivaram as Abutajja
Mukhyamantri Chandru as Mahabala
Doddanna as Doctor
T. N. Balakrishna as Narasimha Swami
Ramesh Bhat as Kutta
L. S. Sudhindra
Ashok Badaradinni as Doctor's Assistant
Thoogudeepa Srinivas as Bollanna
Sundar Raj as Dhooma
Kaminidharan
Reception
Shankar had confessed in an interview that he had failed to break Rajkumar's image but was satisfied that an effort was made to tamper with the star system and appreciated Rajkumar for being co-operative in this cause by appearing in a role which was not typical. Riding on high expectations, Ondu Muttina Kathe received mixed response upon release. However, it ended up doubling its investment. It had the lowest share for a Dr Raj movie in the 1980s. The movie just ran for 7 weeks (less than 50 days) in the main theatre which again was the lowest for a Dr Rajkumar movie in the 1980s putting the then lowest Nee Nanna Gellalare (63 day) to the second position. Ondu Muttina Kathe has achieved cult status which in turn is evident from it being frequently shown on Udaya TV. It is considered one of the most technically advanced films of the 1980s era of Indian cinema.
Soundtrack
L. Vaidyanathan composed the background score for the film and the soundtracks. Lyrics for the soundtracks were penned by Chi. Udaya Shankar. The album consists of five soundtracks.

Lamarck's honey bee or the Egyptian honey bee, Apis mellifera lamarckii, is a subspecies of honey bee
occurring in a narrow range along the Egyptian Nile Valley of Egypt and Sudan, named after Jean-Baptiste Lamarck and is considered the first honey bee domesticated, before 2600BC.
Description
It is a dark honey bee with yellow abdomen, and is a small subspecies like the subspecies south of the Sahara. The Lamarck's mitotype can also be identified in honey bees from California and in feral bees from Florida.
A trait of the A. m. lamarckii is that it does not collect propolis nor does it form winter clusters and therefore may not overwinter well in areas that experience freezing temperatures or prolonged winters.
It is considered aggressive, with a low honey yield.

Mayo River State Park is a North Carolina state park in Rockingham County, North Carolina in the United States. It covers along the Mayo River, and it adjoins a Virginia State Park of the same name. North Carolina's park is near Mayodan, North Carolina. The park is one of the newest in the North Carolina system, having been authorized by the General Assembly in May 2003.
History
In May 2003, the North Carolina General Assembly authorized a state park along the Mayo River, from the Virginia-North Carolina state line, to the river's confluence with the Dan River.
The Mayo Mountain Access was opened to the public on April 1, 2010, as an interim facility.
For the first decade of its existence, the park struggled to obtain land with access to the river's edge. Most of the state's initial park properties were above the river, where it may be seen, but not reached.
In 2016, Piedmont Land Conservancy (PLC) acquired a tract from Mayo Properties LLC, which ran along both sides the Mayo River for . The tract was originally assembled by investors in the 1950's, with plans to dam the Mayo as a water reservoir for the City of Greensboro. The plans never came into fruition, as Greensboro aided the development of the Randleman Reservoir on the Deep River instead. Duke Energy aided PLC, with a $1.1 million grant for the purchase of the property, as part of their restoration activity for the 2014 Dan River coal ash spill.
In 2019, PLC acquired another tract, which included Mayo Beach and the Boiling Hole. A former property of Washington Mills Company, the linear track consists of of the river's right and left banks, and it tied several existing park parcels together. Duke Energy provided a $363,000 grant for the acquisition.
Recreation
Mayo River State Park consists of multiple, disconnected access areas spread along the river.
Mayo Mountain access
The park's principle public access area is the Mayo Mountain Access, near Mayodan.
The access was once a corporate facility, formally known as Mayo Park, which was opened by the Washington Mills Company in 1948. Architect Antonin Raymond designed the original Mayo Park, which included a picnic shelter, a fishing pond, a swimming pond with a beach and a bathhouse. The state renovated and restored some of the existing structures from the former park, while trying to maintain a style compatible with Raymond's design. By the time North Carolina State Parks obtained the property, Raymond's bathhouse had degraded beyond repair. A restroom building resembling the former bathhouse's design was constructed in its place, and materials salvaged from the bathhouse were incorporated into it. The diving platform and other swimming facilities were removed from the swimming pond.
The core of the access area consists of a visitor contact station, two picnic shelters, a small picnic area, two catch and release fishing ponds, a restroom building and a trailhead. The Mayo Mountain Loop Trail starts at the picnic area, and it leads hikers along the ridge of Mayo Mountain. The trail does not reach the summit, which is private property. The Inner Loop Trail is formed by a shortcut of the Mayo Mountain loop, which avoids ascending the mountain. The access area also has a 40-person group campground set away from the rest of the park facilities.
Deshazo Mill access
The park's Deshazo Mill access is its northernmost and second-developed area. The access has a small parking and picnic area, which serve as the trailhead for the Mayo River Trail. The trail takes hikers past Fall Creek Falls, before reaching the Mayo River. The trail then turns north and passes by the confluence of the North and South Forks of the Mayo, and it formally ends at Bryd's Ledge. Named for Mr Bryd, the rock formation in the North Mayo River was a landmark when the North Carolina–Virginia state line was surveyed. An informal trail continues on into Virginia's Mayo River State Park.
Anglin Mill access
The Anglin Mill access, also known as Mayo Beach, is along a naturally sandy bank of the river. The beach is a popular local swimming area, and upstream of the beach is a Class III rapid, called the Boiling Hole. This stretch of the river is commonly used for playboating, due to its ease of access.
Hickory Creek access
The Hickory Creek access provides hikers an informal trailhead near Hickory Creek and a trail which leads to the river.
Mayodan access
Close to downtown Mayodan, the Mayodan access provides a primitive put-in for kayaks and canoes.
Virginia's Mayo River State Park
After North Carolina began development of its state park, the State of Virginia studied the creation of its own adjoining state park in 2007. The Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation concluded the park was feasible, and in 2009 it acquired an initial tract adjoining North Carolina's park. Virginia proposed merging the two parks together into an 'interstate park'; however, North Carolina declined, preferring a separate but cooperative approach to park management. Some of the properties North Carolina acquired for its park, extended into Virginia. To aid with the growth of Virginia's park, North Carolina kept its out-of-state landholdings until Virginia could purchase them in 2013. In October 2021, Virginia broke ground on visitor facilities for its park, and it opened a multi-use trail system to the public on Earth Day, April 22, 2022.

The encirclement campaign against the Northeastern Jiangxi Soviet was a campaign launched by the Chinese Nationalist Government intended to destroy the communist Chinese Soviet Republic and its local military forces. It was met by the Communists' Counter-encirclement campaign at Northeastern Jiangxi Soviet (), also called the Counter-encirclement campaign at Northeastern Jiangxi Revolutionary Base (). The Nationalist campaign lasted from December 1930 to July 1931, and resulted in the destruction of the target base area.
The base area
The Jiangxi Soviet was a communist base in the northeastern part of Jiangxi guarded by the 10th Army of the Chinese Red Army, and it was the right flank of the Jiangxi Soviet. In comparison to the major communist base in southern Jiangxi, the Jiangxi Soviet, this communist base was much closer to the nationalist strongholds and it was at the forefront of the nationalist controlled regions, and consequently, it had become a main target the nationalists marked for destruction. The encirclement campaign against Jiangxi Soviet begun in December, 1930, shortly after the First encirclement campaign against Jiangxi Soviet. However, due to the allocation of available troops and other resources to the top priority target, the Jiangxi Soviet, the encirclement campaign against the Jiangxi Soviet was protracted, and was not over until July 1931 after the Third encirclement campaign against Jiangxi Soviet had already started.
Commencement
The initial stage of the campaign resulted in communist victory, with the Nationalists suffering three consecutive defeats immediately after the start of their encirclement campaign in the regions of Shangrao prefectural centre, Zhushanqiao (珠山桥, Pearl Mountain Bridge), and Hekou (河口, River mouth), losing more than 1,500 troops in the process. A stalemate was reached as result, and the nationalists stopped their offensives. However, the huge number of the nationalist troops surrounding the Jiangxi Soviet still posed a major threat, and the nationalists could have struck at any time. To distract the enemy, the communist 10th Army of the Chinese Red Army launched diversion offensives in late March 1931 in the regions of Guixi (贵溪), and Yujiang (余江), and then continued their offensives in northern Fujian, annihilating several thousands nationalist troops in the process. After their eleven consecutive victories in northern Fujian, the communist main force returned in May 1931 and expanded the communist base further. Despite their victories, the communists had failed to distract the nationalists from redeploying any of their troops away from the Jiangxi Soviet.
Completion
The final blow finally arrived when the much anticipated nationalist all-front offensive begun in July 1931, which was unexpectedly helped by a highly unlikely source: the communists themselves. As Wang Ming prevailed in the power struggles against Mao Zedong, Mao's proven effective strategies and tactics were abolished as well when Mao's power and influence dropped, and the Jiangxi Soviet was one of the first place that reflected the rise of Wang Ming and the decline of Mao Zedong, despite the fact Mao was still very much in power elsewhere, such as in the Jiangxi Soviet. However, as the military doctrines of Wang Ming and his supporters were adopted and put in use, they were proven to be completely unsuited for defending the communist base. As a result, the communist force was annihilated and the communist base of Jiangxi Soviet was reduced to a tiny fraction of its original size centered at Geyuan.
Although the communist base was not fully destroyed until March 1943 when the last of its communist guerrillas were finally eliminated and the communist commander Yang Wenhan (杨文翰) captured, (who was subsequently executed by the nationalists seven months later in October in the region of Goose' Beak (E'zui 鹅嘴) at the northern gate of the city of Yiyang (弋阳)), it was no longer a threat to the nationalists like once it was. The nationalists did not even bother to continue any follow-up campaigns after the annihilation of their communist enemy in July 1931, except a single eradication campaign at the end of 1938 in which over 17,000 nationalist troops were deployed. The surviving communist base and communist force were insignificant enough for the nationalists to declare a victory and redeploy their forces against communists elsewhere. As for the communists, the destruction of its Jiangxi Soviet meant that the important right flank of Jiangxi Soviet was lost, and more nationalist forces were available to insert greater pressures on communist forces and bases elsewhere.

Sedan Junior and Senior High School is a public middle and high school in Sedan, Kansas, United States. It is the sole high school operated by Chautauqua County USD 286 school district, and serves students of grades 7 to 12. The school colors are blue and white and the school mascot is the blue devil.
History
Sedan High School graduated its first class of five students in 1889. In 1900, the hardwood floors of the first school building were replaced, and a new school building was built in 1904. The curriculum in 1902 for the "A Class" consisted of "Geometry, Physics, General History, Shakespeare, Cicero, Bookeeping, Shorthand, Commercial Law, Penmanship, Typewriting" during the first term, then "Geometry, Physics, Political Economy, Virgil, Bookeeping, Shorthand, Dictation, Penmanship, Typewriting" during the second term.
By 1923, The Sedan Times-Star reported, "In our school district, No. 44, we have invested in buildings and equipment approximately $100,000.00 and our operating expense is from $35,000.00 to $40,000.00 per year." The paper also noted the school's membership in the North Central Association of high schools that had been formed in 1895.
A Works Progress Administration project took place at the school in 1937.
By 1949, the school had graduated a total of 946 students in its first fifty years.
In 1960, a $380,000 bond issue was approved to construct a new building. The contract for the building went to H. D. Perkins Construction Co., Bartlesville, Oklahoma, with a bid of $181,229.
The attorney for Unified School District 286 requested an opinion of the state's attorney general in 1994 to determine whether the school mascot, the blue devil, was a religious symbol in violation of the U.S. Constitution's First and Fourteenth Amendments prohibiting establishment of a state religion. Attorney General Bob Stephan published a legal opinion that the mascot was unlikely to be perceived in a religious context.
In the 2019–2020 school year, there were 163 students enrolled in grades 7–12, and a student to teacher ratio of 11.81.

The International Conference on Communications and Transit was an event organised by the League of Nations in Barcelona from 10 March to 20 April 1921. It was the first international conference organised by the League of Nations, institution created two years before as the result of the Treaty of Versailles of 1919. Chapter XII of the treaty included a series of articles oriented to the facilitation of international communications and trade, main reason for the celebration of this conference.
Decisions
The results of the conference were the following conventions and international instruments.:
Convention and Statute on Freedom of Transit
Convention and Statute on the Regime of Navigable Waterways of International Concern
Declaration recognising the Right to a Flag of States having no Sea-coast
Recommendations on the International Regime of Maritime Ports
Recommendations on the International Regime of Railways
The originals of these instruments, of which the Secretary-General of the United Nations is the depositary, are currently in the League of Nations Archives, at the Palais des Nations, in Geneva.
History
The seat of the conference was a dual one. The plenary meetings were held at the Saló de Cent of the Barcelona City Council; however, the heart of the Conference, i.e. the sessions in committees, working groups, as well as the offices of the Presidency and the Secretariat, the reproduction and distribution of documents, among others, where hosted in the Palace of the Generalitat, much of which had been ceded for this reason by the President of the Mancomunitat de Catalunya, Josep Puig i Cadafalch.
This summit mobilized around four hundred people among diplomats, experts, League of Nations officials and journalists; as well as staff from the Mancomunitat, the Barcelona City Council and the Spanish Ministry of State who were seconded to give support to this international meeting. The conference was chaired by the French historian and statesman Gabriel Hanotaux and was attended by, among others, figures such as Jean Monnet, then Undersecretary General of the League of Nations, the jurist Sir Cecil Hurst, and -among others- the ministers of transports or public works of France, Yves Le Trocquer, Italy, Camillo Peano, or the one of Belgium, Xavier Neujean. The Catalan journalist, Eugeni Xammar, who was then working for the Information Section of the League of Nations, was one of the key persons in the organization this conference; in which a young Salvador de Madariaga also made his debut.
Legacy
On February 16, 2021, by agreement of the Government of Catalonia, it was decided to celebrate the centennial of this conference as one of the institutional commemorations of the Generalitat (Government of Catalonia) for the year 2021

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is a real-time tactics video game developed and published by Mimimi Games. The game was released for the PlayStation 5, Windows and Xbox Series X and Series S in August 2023.
Story
The game is set in an alternate version of the Golden Age of Piracy, in which a mysterious curse has revived the dead and granted them with supernatural abilities. The player must assemble a cursed pirate crew to explore an island chain named the Lost Caribbean and steal magical artifacts from the Inquisition, which seeks to hunt down all the Cursed individuals.
Gameplay
Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is a real-time tactics video game played from an isometric perspective. The game features eight characters at launch. Each character in the game has their own unique abilities. For instance, Pinkus can briefly possess enemies and enter restricted areas, while Suleidy can distract enemies with plant spores, and spawn a bush anywhere in the game as a hiding spot for other players. Their magical abilities can also be further upgraded by collecting a resource named "vigour". Players will visit the game's various islands multiple times in order to collect Black Pearls, which can be used to resurrect other characters in the game. Characters, once resurrected, will join the player's crew.
Each map in the game is an open region, and players can use a multitude of ways to approach their objectives. While there are multiple ways for players to enter an island, they must escape through "Tear Into The Below", a portal that magically transports the crew back to their ship, the Red Marley, which also serves as the game's hub area. Enemies are alerted to loud noises and footprint, and players need to avoid enemies' sight, which is displayed as green cones of vision. Players can activate Shadow Mode, which briefly pauses the game, allowing players to issue commands to several characters and execute them at once. They can also use the environments to their advantage. For instance, a large boulder can be dropped onto an enemy, killing them without alerting nearby hostile units. The game also features a quick-save system, allowing players to quickly rewind time after making an undesired tactical error.
Development
The game was developed by Mimimi Games, the studio behind Shadow Tactics: Blades of the Shogun (2016) and Desperados III (2020). Shadow Gambit features a fantasy backdrop, allowing the team to significantly expand character skills. The game also features a more open-ended structure, as the player can recruit characters and complete missions in any order they want. Internally codenamed "Project Süßkartoffel", it was developed with funds from both the German government and Kowloon Nights. It is the studio's first self-published game. The game was officially announced by Mimimi in January 2023. It was released for Windows PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and Series S, on August 17, 2023.

"Entity" is a science fiction short story by American writers Poul Anderson and John Gergen, which appeared in the June 1949 issue of Astounding Science Fiction. "Entity" was the fifth story published by Anderson, and the only story published by Gergen, a friend of him from the Minneapolis Fantasy Society.
Plot summary
The interstellar scout ship Diogenes has discovered an ancient, deserted alien outpost on an airless planet. The most puzzling object at the outpost is a featureless black sphere resting on a concrete pedestal that instantly drains all power from any device that is exposed to it. The sphere is impervious to all attempts to study it, and when the crew of the Diogenes attempt to lift it off its pedestal with a levitation machine, it shorts out their ship's main generators. Repairing the generators will require weeks, and morale is already low when the ship's biologist hypothesizes that the sphere is actually a sentient entity which is actively resisting them. The captain thinks this unlikely, but decides that they will have to remain on the planet until they understand what the sphere is. In the meantime, to raise morale, the captain orders the crew of the Diogenes to get roaring drunk.
During the party, the ship's planetographer drunkenly complains to the captain that an electrical apparatus he was working on blew out when they were trying to lift the sphere. This leads to a moment of drunken clarity for the captain: the sphere, he realizes, is actually a power broadcaster. It absorbs energy of all sorts, including potential energy (which is why it can't be lifted), then converts it with near total efficiency to electromagnetic radiation, broadcasting at a frequency of 30,000 hertz, which happens to be the frequency the planetographer's apparatus was set to receive.
The captain also realizes that they can move the sphere into the ship by simply rolling it off its pedestal onto a levitator and carrying it, as long as they make no attempt to lift it against the planet's gravity. Once it is in the ship, they can surround it with energy receivers and feed the energy it broadcasts directly into the ship's engine, which should give the ship enough power to move it. Once the scientists on Earth work out the sphere's operating principles, they will be able to duplicate it and use it to power Earth's civilization.
The Psychotechnic League
Anderson listed "Entity" as part of the Psychotechnic League series in a timeline published in the Winter 1955 issue of Startling Stories, but it was not included in a later timeline that appeared in the Psychotechnic League collection Starship (1982). Although one character in "Entity" mentions that the discovery of hyperdrive occurred "a few decades" earlier, the Startling timeline has the story take place in 3150, nearly four centuries after the discovery of hyperdrive in the Psychotechnic League universe. The late date may have been Anderson's way of explaining away the absence of the sphere's power broadcasting technology in any of the other Psychotechnic League stories. There is nothing in "Entity" that conflicts with the rest of the Psychotechnic series, but neither is there any positive correlation with it.

Nominal sentence (also known as equational sentence) is a linguistic term that refers to a nonverbal sentence (i.e. a sentence without a finite verb). As a nominal sentence does not have a verbal predicate, it may contain a nominal predicate, an adjectival predicate, in Semitic languages also an adverbial predicate or even a prepositional predicate. In Egyptian-Coptic, however, as in the majority of African languages, sentences with adverbial or prepositional predicate show a distinctly different structure.
The relation of nominal sentences to verbal sentences is a question of tense marking. In most languages with nominal sentences such as Russian, Arabic and Hebrew, the copular verb does not surface in indicatival present tense sentences. Conversely, these languages allow the copular verb in non-present sentences.
History
Historically, nominal sentences have posited much controversy regarding their identity as an existent linguistic phenomenon. Ancient grammatical tradition did not uncover such sentences, or if they did, they were only found as an exception to the language structure. This was the view taken by the Western grammatical tradition, which began with an analysis of Ancient Greek followed by an analysis of Latin.
However, this Western/European approach to nominal sentences was not how the Arab grammarians of the early Middle Ages approached it. Arab grammarians did not feel as bound by the classical grammatical categories as did the European counterparts of that historical period. Rather, they viewed a sentence as having two basic categories: 1. a verbal sentence that begins with a verb, and 2. a nominal sentence that begins with a noun and may or may not have a verb within it.
Moving forward in the historical time period, Orientalists later borrowed the nominal sentence terminology from the early Arab grammarians, however modified it slightly to be defined solely with respect to the absence of the verbal predicate, rather than with respect to the first word of the sentence (the noun) that may or may not have a verb in it, as the Arab grammarians defined it. This slight shift in the definition of nominal sentences corresponds partly to both the Western and the Arabic grammar tradition. The Orientalists' definition agrees with the Western grammar's focus of the predicate orientation, and it supports how the Arab grammarians included a sentence category of nominal sentences (nonverbal sentences). Since this new definition of nominal sentences corresponded more accurately to the notion of non-verbal sentences, compared to the Arab definition of it 'may or may not contain a verb', the Orientalists' definition included predicate types other than verbs (nouns, adjectives, etc.).
Syntactic structure and analyses
To successfully account for the syntactic structure of a nominal sentence, there must either be a change in the phrase structure rules or a zero copula must be assumed. This is because nominal sentences cannot be accounted for using traditional phrase structure rules, which state: TP → {NP/ CP} (T) (VP). In other words, a tense phrase must consist of a noun phrase or complementizer phrase, an optional tense head, and a verb phrase. Less technically, this means each sentence must have a noun and verb component. Because there is no overt verb in a nominal sentence, this creates a challenge for the theory.
In the Arabic sentence (), literally "I happy", which is fully grammatical in the language, there is a pronoun, and an adjective, . The first satisfies the sentence requirement of having a noun, but the latter being an adjective, our verb requirement remains unfulfilled. In order to allow this construction, we would have to revise our theory to state *TP → NP {VP/AP} (the * indicates that this is actually an ungrammatical construction), meaning you could have a sentence which breaks down to either a verb phrase or an adjective phrase (see the above figure). However, phrase structure rules are supposed to be universal, therefore this new rule would also allow us to generate "I happy" in English. Since this is not a grammatical, this is an issue that requires attention.
Another problem is that each phrase must consist of a head which bears its name. Therefore, in a verb phrase, the head is always a verb. Again, nominal sentences like do not have a verb, so the verb head position in the verb phrase cannot be filled.
Having a zero copula is one way to solve the problems listed above without compromising the existing syntactic theory. The verb is present, just covertly as "null".
Using X-bar theory, it is possible to both account for the grammaticality of constructions such as "I happy" as well as explain how the subject DP is derived. In X-bar theory, there are no obligatory lexical categories that make up a sentence; instead, there are only general X-bar rules: the specifier rule, adjunct rule, and complement rule. Therefore, the theory accurately permits the AP "happy" as grammatical even without a verb since AP can be a complement to the T head (see aside).
Additionally, under the VP-internal subject hypothesis, the subject "I" will be generated in the specifier of VP and, using the DP movement, it will move to the specifier position of TP. Consequently, the resulting surface structure of the nominal sentence "I happy" is properly generated under this analysis.
In English
Nominal sentences in English are relatively uncommon, but may be found in non-finite embedded clauses such as the one in "I consider John intelligent", where to be is omitted from John to be intelligent.
They can also be found in newspaper headlines, such as "Jones Winner" where the intended meaning is with the copular verb, "Jones is the Winner".
Other examples are proverbs ("More haste, less speed"); requests ("Scalpel!"); and statements of existence ("Fire in the hole!"), which are often warnings.
The omission of the verb 'to be' can also provide basis for nominal sentences: for example, in the sentence "the higher I am, the hungrier I feel", the verb 'to be' can be omitted to form a nominal sentence thus: "The higher, the hungrier".
A sentence such as "What a great day today!" is, for example, considered nominal since there are no verbs.
In Arabic
Present tense
A verbless sentence in Arabic ( ) does not consist of a subject but rather a topic followed by a predicate. They are only possible in present tense sentences. Below are examples of verbless sentences with NP, AdjP or PP predicates.
NP predicate
AdjP predicate
PP predicate
All the examples above are perfectly grammatical in Arabic since they all refer to the present tense and therefore do not require verbs.
Past tense
As stated above, verbless sentences occur only in the present tense thus, a formal nominal sentence in Arabic can never express something in the past tense. That is, the past feature has to always be indicated morphologically to convey accurate information of (+past), unlike the present which can be referred to as tenseless. The following is an example of a past tense sentence in formal or written Arabic:
Demonstrated by the sentence above is the idea that tense is a guiding factor to the use of nominal sentences in Arabic. A sentence in the past always requires the (+past) verb.
Negation
Nominal sentences can be negated in different ways depending on tense and whether or not they are embedded. The following is an example of a negative nominal sentence in the present tense, using the formal Arabic negative particle :
The negative particle () by itself has the meaning of a present tense and it is used to negate a general existence; so it means something along the lines of "there does not exist" or "there is not". Thus, it can only negate a tenseless sentence where an overt copula is not necessary.
In order to negate a nominal sentence in the past, however, the copular verb must be included. The following is an example of a negative past sentence using the negative particle :
It is important to note that the negative particle () is a tense marker of (+past). Therefore, it negates a lexically present tense to refer to the past, making past negative sentences similar to the affirmative past tense sentences in that a past feature must be marked.
In other languages
Hungarian
For some languages, nominal sentences are restricted to third person only. Hungarian is an example of such a language. In Hungarian, the copular verb simply expresses something that exists, such as something, someone, a place, or even time, weather, a material, an origin, a cause or purpose. In third person proposition sentences (both singular and plural), there are no copular verbs required and instead, the copular is null.
Russian
In Russian, there are no restrictions on verbless propositional sentences as they can occur with all persons and all numbers (i.e., singular or plural). However, despite such restrictions and variability seen in both Arabic and Hungarian above, there are no structural differences between the languages. Instead, these differences are derived by whether or not there must be a relation with the verbal constructions and the copular verb.
Hebrew
In Hebrew, sentences may or may not include verbs since verbs are optional and not at all obligatory. Also, the order of words is quite flexible such that for the sentences that do include verbs, the verb can appear either before or after the nominal predicate, adjectival predicate or prepositional predicate; the nominal predicate can appear either before or after the adjectival predicate, prepositional predicate; and so on, all of which are possible combinations that still mean the same thing. Although for the sentences that lack verbs, only two combinations are possible: either the nominal predicate appears before or after the adjectival/prepositional predicate. And like in Arabic, the copular verb is simply implied, in fact, there are no present tense forms of the verb "to be" in any stage of Hebrew, ancient or modern.
Ancient Indo-European languages
In ancient Indo-European languages, verb inflections and context both play a significant role in determining the structure of the sentence as well as their translations to other languages.
Verb inflections are used to indicate person (first, second or third), number (singular, dual or plural), tense, voice, and mood. Also, personal endings, which are suffixes that attach to verbs, are specifically used to express person and number and consist of nine different forms: alternating combinations between the three persons and three numbers.
Context determines whether the simple present and present progressive (for example, "I eat" vs. "I am eating") indicates the present or future tense. This is a common phenomenon found in English as well, since the sentence "I am eating in the cafeteria" can either mean "I am eating in the cafeteria [right now]" or "I am eating in the cafeteria [next Tuesday]". Additionally, the present tense can be used to talk about either the present or the past and which one it implies is determined by context. For instance, "We went to the mall [yesterday]. James buys a new bike", where without the context (yesterday) the action of buying would take place in the present but in this very sentence, it occurs in the past.
Thus for the examples below, the omitted copular verb only acts and implies a connection between the subject and predicate. Due to the missing verbal inflections, only the suffixes that are attached to the nominal predicates can be used to determine such things as number and possession. As to what time the sentences are describing, it depends entirely on the context of when the sentences are being used and/ or the preceding and following sentences.

Tadas Ivanauskas (December 16, 1882 – June 1, 1970) was a Lithuanian zoologist and biologist, and one of the founders of Vytautas Magnus University.
Biography
He was born in Lebiodka Manor (today in Belarus) as a third child of Leonard Iwanowski and Jadwiga Reichel. After finishing Warsaw Gymnasium in 1901, Ivanauskas moved to Saint Petersburg, where he studied in the 1st gymnasium of the city. In 1903, he studied at the natural sciences department of the Saint Petersburg University. He met and befriended Lithuanian students here and learned the Lithuanian language.
In 1905, he moved to Paris, studied at Sorbonne University Nature-history faculty and graduated in 1909. Since 1904 he was a member of the Lithuanian society Lituania. Together with another early twentieth-century Lithuanian activist, Michał Römer, Ivanauskas gave lectures about Lithuania in Paris in 1905.
In 1909, he again entered Saint Petersburg University, as Russian Empire did not recognize foreign diplomas, and finished with a first-grade diploma in 1910. During his studies, he was active in Lithuanian student society, and was elected as chairman.
In 1910, in Saint Petersburg, he established the natural sciences visual devices laboratory Zootom, which prepared various biological, botanical, anatomical and mineralogical devices. In the summertime, he travelled around Lithuania collecting material for his devices. In 1914 and 1917, Ivanauskas participated in scientific expeditions into Northern Russia (Murmansk and Arkhangelsk) and Norway. In 1918 Ivanauskas returned to Lithuania and together with his wife Honorata opened a Lithuanian school.
In 1920, he moved to Kaunas and worked as an adviser in the Ministry of Agriculture of Lithuania, also helped organize Higher courses, that later became the University of Lithuania. Together with Konstantinas Regelis organized Kaunas Botanical Park in 1923. Together with his wife, he started organizing the annual National day of birds and Tree planting days.
He was a professor in University of Lithuania (later Vytautas Magnus University) from 1922 until 1940, and in 1929, became the head of the Zoology Department. He became a professor at the re-established Vilnius University between 1940 and 1941. He returned to this position in 1944, which he held until 1956. He simultaneously held a professorship at the Kaunas Medical Institute from 1954 until 1970.
Among his other achievements, he is known for opening one of the first bird banding stations in Europe, at Ventė Cape in 1929. He also founded the Zoological Museum in 1918, the Kaunas Botanical Garden in 1923, Žuvintas reserve in 1937, and the Kaunas Zoo in 1938.
Ivanauskas published 37 books and brochures, the most famous of them - Birds of Lithuania. Since 1941 he was a full member of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences.
Nationality
Born as Tadeusz Iwanowski in Lebiodka, Grodno Region of today's Belarus, in a Catholic Lithuanian noble family loyal to the heritage of Grand Duchy of Lithuania, he did not know the Lithuanian language until 1905. Even so, Ivanauskas considered himself to be Lithuanian and dedicated his life to Lithuania. He opened the first Lithuanian school with his wife in 1918. There was a noted episode during Polish–Lithuanian War, as one of his brothers during ceasefire transferred Tadas' taxidermical collection through the front line into Lithuania.
The other three brothers of Ivanauskas identified themselves with the other two nationalities of former Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, two ( - politician and engineer and Stanisław Iwanowski - lawyer) chose to become Polish, and one Vacłaŭ Ivanoŭski (politician) - Belarusian (although he would live in interwar Poland).

Codex Vaticanus, designated by S or 028 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε 1027 (von Soden), formerly called Codex Guelpherbytanus, is a Greek manuscript of the four Gospels which can be dated to a specific year instead of an estimated range. The colophon of the codex lists the date as 949 (on folio 234 verso). This manuscript is one of the four oldest New Testament manuscripts dated in this manner, and the only dated uncial.
The manuscript has complex contents.
Description
The codex contains 235 parchment leaves (), with complete text of the four Gospels. The text is written in two columns per page, 27 lines per page, 15-17 letters per line. It is written in large, oblong, and compressed uncial letters. It has no breathings and accents.
The nomina sacra are written in an abbreviated way.
The text is divided according to the (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their (titles of chapters) at the top. There is also a division according to the smaller Ammonian sections, with references to the Eusebian Canons.
It contains the Epistula ad Carpianum, lists of the (tables of contents) before each Gospel, and subscriptions at the end of each Gospel, with numbers of stichoi. It contains many later corrections (e.g. ), and margin notes (e.g. .17) predominantly added by later hand. It also includes neumes, and it is one of the oldest manuscript with neumes. The writing is large oblong and compressed, and appears Slavic.
Text
The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type in close relationship to the codices Codex Mosquensis II, Codex Washingtonianus. Kurt Aland placed it in Category V (2061 1051/2 42 12S). It belongs to the textual family K1.
In it has marginal comment: "In many ancient copies which I have met with I found Barabbas himself likewise called Jesus; that is, the question of Pilate stood there as follows, Τινα θελετε απο των δυο απολυσω υμιν, Ιησουν τον Βαραββαν η Ιησουν τον λεγομενον Χριστον; for apparently the paternal name of the robber was Barabbas, which is interpreted Son of the teacher".
The disputed texts of .44, and Pericope Adultera (-) are marked by asterisks (※) as questionable texts.
In it reads επορευετο instead of επορευθη.
History
The name of the scribe was Michael, a monk, who finished his work "in the month of March, the fifth day, the sixth hour, the year 6457, the seventh indiction".
The manuscript was examined and described by Bianchini. It was collated with some errors by Birch in 1781–1783, but collators in his day rarely noticed orthographical forms. Tischendorf in 1866 corrected the collation of Birch. Tischendorf states that facsimile of Bianchini was coarsely executed, he made another for himself.
The codex currently is located in Rome (Bibl. Vat. Gr. 354).

The Vancouver Amazons were a women's ice hockey team from the 1920s. They were the first women's hockey team from Vancouver to participate in the invitational women's hockey tournament sponsored by the Banff Winter Carnival. The Amazons competed in 1921. The Amazons qualified for the final that year but were defeated. The team was owned by Frank Patrick, who also owned the Vancouver Millionaires. Patrick would organize a tournament featuring the Amazons, the Seattle Vamps and the Victoria Kewpies. The Amazons went undefeated in the tournament and did not allow a goal. The Amazons were West Coast Women's champions. As the tournament featured a team from the United States, many consider this the first ever international women's hockey competition.
At the Banff tournament in 1922, Elizabeth Hinds became the first woman from British Columbia to score a hat trick in a game. Phebe Senkler was captain of the Amazons and her sister Norah played on defense. The forwards were Kathleen Carson and Nan Griffith, while the goaltender was Amelia Voitkevic. The bench featured Lorraine Cannon and Mayme Leahy. The Amazons qualified for the 1922 final and played the Calgary Regents. In the third period, the Amazons were down 1–0, and Kathleen Carson tied the game. Carson would score the game-winning goal in overtime and were awarded the Alpine Club Cup.
Second team
The new version of the Vancouver Amazons was founded in 1931. The club was organized by competitive speed skater Doris Parkes. Former Fernie Swastikas player Belva Graves was now a member of the team.

Milton Burn is a watercourse in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. It is sourced from Loch Loskin in Kirn and largely runs parallel to the A885 road as it leads south to Dunoon. It is around long.
It is crossed by several roads during its southward flow: Sandbank Road, Hamilton Street, Argyll Street, Pilot Street, Milton Road and George Street. It disappears beneath Alexandra Parade immediately before its discharge into the Firth of Clyde between Queen Street and Milton Road in Dunoon's East Bay.
East Bay was originally named Milton Bay by James MacArthur Moir, a miller who became laird of Milton. In 1884, the burn is mentioned as being crossed by Mill Street, which no longer exists. Milton Mill was situated on the burn between Milton Road and George Street. Milton was the name of the estate on which Dunoon was partly built.
In 1885, The Scottish Law Reporter also wrote:
In July 1989, the body of 25-year-old Gourock resident Joyce Hepburn was found in the burn near George Street. Hundreds of sailors stationed at the nearby Holy Loch were questioned by police, as many of them came ashore on leave every second Thursday after receiving their wages. Witnesses recalled seeing a male and a female arguing in George Street, above the point where Hepburn's body was later found. The body of Ivan Miller, Hepburn's fiancé and a United States Navy dental technician, was found a week later in the hills behind Dunoon. He had committed suicide.
Eight months of flood prevention work began around the burn in June 2011. A culvert was connected to the burn via a weir, allowing water to be removed from the burn during and after heavy rainfall.
A whisky distillery is believed to have stood beside the burn near where it is crossed by Argyll Street.
The burn flows through Milton Burn Gardens, which was created on the eastern side of Argyll Street between Queen Street and John Street.

Kristopher Carlos Joseph (born December 17, 1988) is a Canadian professional basketball player for Ottawa Blackjacks of the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL). He played for the Syracuse Orange men's basketball team from 2008 to 2012. He was selected in the second round of the 2012 NBA draft by the Boston Celtics with the 51st pick overall. He is the older cousin of Pistons point guard Cory Joseph.
Early years
Joseph was born and raised in Montreal, Quebec, where he grew up in the working-class neighbourhood of Cote-des-Neiges north of downtown. Joseph first picked up a basketball in Grade 2 but was forced to shoot on garbage cans with his older brother Maurice. A court was eventually erected in Cote-des-Neiges and the brothers battled for hours.
High school career
Joseph played in Maurice's shadow for a number of years as the older star gained prominence at noted Montreal-area prep school Champlain St. Lambert College. Kris struggled at first against elite competition, getting cut from his club team at the age of 14.
He worked on his game, grew to 6-foot-6 and became a star for Sun Youth, a club-team powerhouse in the Montreal Basketball League. As a tenth-grader, he led the Quebec provincial team to a silver medal at the 2005 Canada Games. He played for his high school team at Mont-Royal high school, the Mount-Royal Mustangs.
On a recommendation from youth coach Henry Wong, who thought Joseph needed an athletic and academic challenge, Joseph's mother agreed to let him leave Montreal in 2006 to complete two years of high school at Archbishop Carroll in Washington, D.C.
As a senior, Joseph led Archbishop Carroll to a 26–11 record, including a 21-point, five rebound, three assist and three block effort in the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference (WCAC) Tournament in a 65–55 win over Our Lady of Good Counsel. Joseph was also invited to play in the Baltimore All-Stars vs. U.S. All-Stars Exhibition in April. That season, Joseph would go on to earn 2008 second team honors from the Washington Post. He played AAU basketball with the DC Assault.
Considered a three-star recruit by Rivals.com, Joseph was listed as the No. 17 small forward and the No. 113 player in the nation in 2008.
College career
2008–09
Joseph would see early playing time, including seven points in 22 minutes in an 85–51 rout of Le Moyne on November 16, 2008 and a 13-point six rebound effort in an 86–66 victory against Oakland University on November 22, 2008. On November 24, 2008, Joseph's 10 points and five rebounds helped then-unranked Syracuse upset then-No. 18 Florida, 89–83, in the semi-finals of the CBE Classic.
After an injury to Paul Harris, Joseph would receive the first start of his career against South Florida on January 2, 2009, scoring seven points and adding three rebounds.
2009–10
Joseph would become a key reserve in his second year at Syracuse. In SU's Big East opener against Seton Hall on December 29, 2009, Joseph scored 16 points, including 8-of-9 shooting from the free throw line in an 80–73 win. On January 6, 2010 against Memphis, Joseph scored 15 second half points to go along with nine rebounds in a 74–57 win.
Joseph finished with averages of 11.0 points and 5.4 rebounds on the season, and was named the Big East Conference Sixth Man of the Year.
2010–11
Joseph gained national prominence as a go-to scorer for the Orange during his junior year. He was named in the Wooden Award Preseason Top 50 list and improved his numbers across the board, leading Syracuse in scoring at 14.3 points per game and placing second in rebounding (5.2) and steals (1.5). He was named to the All-Big East third team, the first Canadian to receive the honour since fellow Montrealer Bill Wennington in 1985.
2011–12
Joseph was once again named to the Wooden Award Preseason Top 50 list as a senior. His final season started off with a flourish as he was named the Big East Player of the Week after leading his Syracuse Orange to the NIT Season Tip Off Championship. Joseph was named Most Outstanding Player of the tournament with averages of 19.0 points, 9.5 rebounds and 3.5 steals in wins against Virginia Tech and Stanford.
He led the Orange in scoring during the regular season (13.4 ppg) and received an array of post-season awards, including a spot on the 2012 All-Big East First Team. Joseph is the first Canadian-born player ever to be named to the first team of that conference. He was named an AP Honorable Mention All-American and also earned spots on the USBWA All District II team as well as the NABC All-District 5 First Team. Additionally, Joseph was one of 15 post-season finalists for the Wooden Award, making him among the most decorated Canadians ever to play NCAA Division I basketball.
With his 15 points against Manhattan on November 14, 2011, Joseph became the 55th player at Syracuse to score 1,000 points. He concluded his storied career with 10 points, two rebounds and 3 steals in Syracuse's 77–70 loss to Ohio State in the Elite Eight.

Matheus Simonete Bressaneli (born 15 January 1993), commonly known as Bressan, is a Brazilian professional footballer who plays for Chinese Super League club Nantong Zhiyun as a central defender. Bressan is a dual citizen of Brazil and Italy, having gained Italian citizenship on June 19, 2013. Bressan also has a green-card, which was issued on June 21, 2021.
Club career
Born in Caxias do Sul, Bressan joined Juventude's youth setup in 2005, aged 12. In 2010, he was promoted to the first team for the 2010 Campeonato Gaúcho, and made his professional debut on 21 March 2010, in a 1–3 away loss against Novo Hamburgo. He failed to establish himself as a regular starter, however.
In the second half of 2011, Bressan won his first professional title, the Copa FGF, acting as a backup, however. In April 2012, he went on a trial period at Ligue 1 side Lille, but nothing came of it; he was also a part of the squad which won the Copa FGF for the second time of the club's history.
In December 2012, Bressan signed with Grêmio, after a partnership between the Porto Alegre's club and Juventude was established. He made his debut for the new club on 3 February 2013, in a 2–1 away loss against Internacional.
After being made a starter by manager Vanderlei Luxemburgo, Bressan played the Copa Libertadores and was also runner-up of the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, acting as a starter in both tournaments. In 2014, he was also a part of the squad which was runner-up of the Campeonato Gaúcho, but mainly as a backup.
On 27 August 2014, Bressan would sign a new deal with Tricolor until December 2016, being subsequently loaned to Premier League side Queens Park Rangers until June 2015. However, the deal collapsed a day later, after his agent, Marcelo Lipatín, revealed details of the negotiation for the media, thus bothering the directors of the English club.
On 23 December 2014, Bressan moved to fellow league team Flamengo, in a season-long loan deal.
On 21 December 2018, Bressan signed with MLS side FC Dallas. He debuted for the first team on April 13, 2019. Following the 2021 season, Bressan's contract option was declined by Dallas.
On 03 February 2022, Bressan signed with Avaí FC after being a free-agent for 2 months.
In March 2023, Bressan joined Chinese Super League club Nantong Zhiyun.

It is part of the Municipality of Latrobe.
Shearwater is one of many popular holiday resorts along the north coast of Tasmania. In recent years the population has swelled and become one of the fastest-growing areas in the world; mainly due to affordable real estate and large developments in the area, including a shopping centre, the Port Sorell Golf Club, and the Shearwater Resort. It borders the Rubicon Estuary, which has been identified by BirdLife International as an Important Bird Area because of its importance for waders, especially pied oystercatchers.

The collection included the works of such famous masters as Ivan Shishkin, Isaac Levitan, Nikolai Yaroshenko, Konstantin Korovin, Alexander Benois, Vasily Polenov, Abram Arkhipov and many others.
The exposition of the Ufa authorities was supposed to be placed on the squares under construction Aksakov's People's House (now the Opera and Ballet Theater), but its construction was significantly delayed due to the events of World War I and revolutions of 1917. Therefore, until 1919, the Nesterov assembly was kept in Moscow.
7 November 1919 and, after the liberation of Ufa from Kolchak's troops, the provincial Revolutionary Committee in Ufa established by special resolution the foundation of the October Revolution Artistic Proletarian Museum in the city. Since the Aksakov People's House was not completed, the house of the merchant-timber merchant M. A. Laptev was allocated for the museum.
The discovery was preceded by a difficult transportation of the Nesterov collection to Ufa from Moscow, through all of Russia destroyed by the Civil War. This case was entrusted to a friend and fellow countryman of the artist, the famous architect Ilya Bondarenko. Upon arrival in Ufa, he was entrusted with the management of the museum, which was opened for visiting in January 1920.
I.E. Bondarenko diligently searched for new works for the museum and by May 1920 the museum collection consisted of 1,500 exhibits, and the library – 2,500 volumes. In the 1920s and 1930s, the museum was actively replenished with exhibits from the Moscow and Petrograd museum funds. Then the works of Konstantin Korovin, Pavel Kuznetsov, Leonard Turzhansky, Ivan Kramskoy, Vasily Perov, Mikhail Vrubel, Valentin Serov, Mikhail Larionov, Natalia Goncharova and many other famous artists. Of particular value to the collection of ancient Russian painting were the icons received in 1921 through the Moscow Museum Fund from the largest collector and restorer Grigory Chirikov.
The exposition area of the museum is 391 m², the total number of storage units is more than 10,000 – paintings of early work Mikhail Nesterov, a collection of ancient Russian art and Russian painting from the 19th to the early 20th century, contemporary fine art and decorative and applied art Bashkiria are also presented, there is a collection Western European and Eastern art.

The Lingsberg Runestones are two 11th-century runestones, listed as U 240 and U 241 in the Rundata catalog, and one fragment, U 242, that are engraved in Old Norse using the younger futhark. They are at the Lingsberg farm about east of Vallentuna (halfway to Kusta), which is about north of the center of Stockholm, Stockholm County, Sweden, which was part of the former province of Uppland.
The two intact runestones were raised by members of the same family, and on U 241 they engraved for posterity that a grandfather had taken two Danegelds in England. Because the receipt of the Danegeld (tax) indicates likely service with the Scandinavian troops in the Thingmen from 1018 to 1066, the runestones are dated to the second quarter of the 11th century.
U 240
The U 240 runestone is known locally as the Lingsbergsstenen 1 and was raised at the end of a causeway facing U 241. The causeway is only seen as traces in a field, and U 240 is the only runestone present. The area was much more marshy in the past and difficult to traverse until the water level in a local lake, Angarn, in Angarnsjöängen Nature Reserve was lowered in the 19th century. The inscription consists of runic text on two serpents or lindworms that bracket a Christian cross and some beasts. The final portion of the text that translates as "and Holmfríðr in memory of her husbandman" is carved on the outside of the serpent to the right. U 240 is classified as being carved in runestone style Pr3, which is also known as Urnes style, and is considered to be a good example of an inscription in style Pr3. This runestone style is characterized by slim and stylized animals that are interwoven into tight patterns. The animal heads are typically seen in profile with slender almond-shaped eyes and upwardly curled appendages on the noses and the necks. The runic text on U 240 was intended to be read together with that on U 241 to form a unified message. Based on stylistic analysis, the inscription has been attributed to the runemaster Åsmund, who was active in the first part of the 11th century.
Latin transliteration:
tan auk hus(k)arl + auk suain + auk hulmfriþr × þaun (m)(i)(þ)kin litu rita stin þino × aftiʀ halftan + fa(þ)ur þaiʀa tans ' auk hum(f)riþr at buanta sin
Old Norse transcription:
Dan ok Huskarl ok Svæinn ok Holmfriðr, þaun møðgin letu retta stæin þenna æftiʀ Halfdan, faður þæiʀa Dans, ok Holmfriðr at boanda sinn.
English translation:
Danr and Húskarl and Sveinn and Holmfríðr, the mother and (her) sons, had this stone erected in memory of Halfdan, the father of Danr and his brothers; and Holmfríðr in memory of her husbandman.
U 241
The U 241 runestone, known locally as the Lingsbergsstenen 2, was originally at the end of a causeway facing U 240. It was discovered in 1909 during the plowing of a field. It has been moved and is in the courtyard of the main building of Lingsberg. The inscription consists of runic text carved on an intertwined serpent that is under a cross. Similar to U 240, U 241 is classified as being carved in runestone style Pr3 and is attributed to the runemaster Åsmund.
The runic text mentions Húskarl and Sveinn like U 241, except for Holmfríðr, and it adds Halfdan's father Ulfríkr, who had taken two danegelds in England. It does not mention which leaders paid the danegelds, unlike the other two runestones in Uppland that talk of danegelds, U 344 and U 194. The runic texts of U 240 and U 241 were intended to be read together to form a unified message, with the text on U 241 beginning with the Old Norse word en meaning "and."
It was common to only carve a single rune for two consecutive letters, even when the letters were at the end of one word and the beginning of a second word. When the text shown as Latin characters, the transliterated runes are doubled and separate words are shown. U 241 has three examples in its runic text where this occurred. The runes onklanti are transliterated as o| |onklanti, kialtakit as kialt| |takit, and salukuþs as salu| |uk| |kuþs. The Norse word salu for soul in the prayer at the end of the inscription was imported from English and was first recorded during the tenth century.
Latin transliteration:
n tan auk huskarl ' auk sua(i)n ' l(i)tu rita stin aftiʀ ' ulfrik ' faþurfaþur sino ' hon hafþi o| |onklanti tuh kialt| |takit + kuþ hialbi þiʀa kiþka salu| |uk| |kuþs muþ(i)
Old Norse transcription:
En Dan ok Huskarl ok Svæinn letu retta stæin æftiʀ Ulfrik, faðurfaður sinn. Hann hafði a Ænglandi tu giald takit. Guð hialpi þæiʀa fæðga salu ok Guðs moðiʀ.
English translation:
And Danr and Húskarl and Sveinn had the stone erected in memory of Ulfríkr, their father's father. He had taken two payments in England. May God and God's mother help the souls of the father and son.
U 242
The U 242 runestone has been found as only a fragment. It is lying beside U 241 at the drive of the main building of Lingsberg.
Latin transliteration:
- × auk × st[u]... ... ...- × (r)(a)(i)(s)(a) × ...
Old Norse transcription:
... ok ... ... ... ræisa ...
English translation:
... and ... ... ... raise ...
