RDS-4 (also known as Tatyana) was a Soviet nuclear bomb that was first tested at Semipalatinsk Test Site, on August 23, 1953. The device weighed approximately . The device was approximately one-third the size of the RDS-3. The bomb was dropped from an IL-28 aircraft at an altitude of and exploded at , with a yield of 28 kt.
The Soviet Union's first mass-produced tactical nuclear weapon was based on the RDS-4 and remained in service until 1966. It used a composite core of Pu-239 and 90% enriched U-235 and had a nominal yield of 30 kilotons. The bomb was delivered from a Tu-4 and Tu-16 aircraft. A tactical weapon based on the RDS-4 was also used on September 14, 1954 during Snowball military exercise at the Totsky range (similar to Western Desert Rock exercises), when the bomb was dropped by the Tu-4 bomber (the reverse-engineered Boeing B-29). The purpose of this exercise was not to test the bomb itself, but the ability of using it while breaking through enemy defenses (presumably in West Germany). After the explosion Soviet jet fighters were sent to fly through the mushroom cloud while tanks and infantry were forced to move through ground zero.

A design language or design vocabulary is an overarching scheme or style that guides the design of a complement of products or architectural settings, creating a coherent design system for styling.
Objectives
Designers wishing to give their suite of products a unique but consistent appearance and user interface can define a specification for it. The specification can describe choices for design aspects such as materials, color schemes, shapes, patterns, textures, or layouts. They then follow the scheme in the design of each object in the suite.
Usually, design languages are not rigorously defined; the designer basically makes one thing similarly as another. In other cases, they are followed strictly, so that the products gain a strong thematic quality. For example, although there is a great variety of unusual chess set designs, the pieces within a set are typically thematically consistent.
Sometimes, designers encourage others to follow their design languages when decorating or accessorizing.
Industrial design
Industrial design is the process of designing products for mass production. A design language can provide a range of products a similar style that sets it apart from competitors.
In automotive design, the design language often uses a signature grille design. For instance, many BMW vehicles share a design language, including front-end styling consisting of a split "kidney grille" and four circular headlights. Some manufacturers have appropriated design language cues from rival firms.
Examples
Apple used the Snow White design for its home computers in the 1980s, which used parallel stripes to give the impression that the enclosure was smaller than it actually was. The Apple Industrial Design Group is responsible for the industrial design of all Apple products.
Cadillac introduced the Art and Science design philosophy in 2000, which emphasized sharp and crisp edges.
Ford used the New Edge design language in the 1990s and early 2000s, which combined intersecting arcs to create soft aerodynamic shapes. Later Ford used Kinetic Design that featured a large lower trapezoidal grill on many vehicles.
Mazda has used the Nagare design language, which used flowing lines influenced by wind. Mazda later used the Kodo design language.
Other examples include the Dynamic Shield design language used by Mitsubishi, and Dynamic x Solid used by Subaru.
Software
In software architecture, design languages are related to architecture description languages. The most well known design language is Unified Modeling Language.
In the context of graphical user interfaces, for example, human interface guidelines can be thought of as design languages for applications.
Examples
Apple has created some software design languages. The Platinum design language was used for Mac OS 8 and 9 and emphasized various shades of gray. The Aqua design language was introduced with Mac OS X Jaguar and emphasized flatter interface elements and liberal use of reflection effects and transparency. Brushed metal, first used in 1999, was intended for programs such as QuickTime Player that mimic the operation or interface of common devices.
Microsoft has used the Aero design language for Windows Vista and Windows 7. The Aero design language used semitransparent glass like window borders as a distinctive feature. The Metro design language focused on simplified icons, absence of clutter and basic shapes. Metro was used in many Microsoft products including Windows 8, Windows Phone 7, the Xbox 360 and Xbox One. The Fluent Design System was developed as a revamp of Metro in 2017, and used more motion, depth and translucency effects.
Google developed Material Design in 2014 which emphasizes smooth responsive animations and transitions, padding and depth using lighting and shadows. Many of Google's products have implemented Material Design including Android, Android applications and web applications.
Flat design is a design language and style that simplifies elements and colours. It has influenced user interface design in Microsoft's Zune, Android starting with Android 4.0, iOS 7 and OS X Yosemite.
In 2021, The GNOME Project expanded its focus of Adwaita to allow it to prosper as a design language for GNOME.

Mulakuzha is a village in Alappuzha district in the state of Kerala, India. Mulakuzha is located in Chengannur tehsil, and residents are mostly artisans and farmers.
Etymology
The word of mouth knowledge about the etymological roots of the name is that at first the name was "Mullakara" which translates in Malayalam as "Land of Bamboos" which was later altered to Mulakuzha (Mula + kuzha/kula=Bamboo+Area).
Location and climate
This village is situated around 6Β km from Chengannur taluk, and shares a border with Pathanamthitta district. A salubrious balneologic canal runs through the heart of this village from the Pamba River, venerated as the "Southern Ganges".
Mulakuzha has a tropical climate. As per KΓΆppen climate classification it has a tropical monsoon climate (Am). Precipitation is the lowest in January, with an average of 20Β mm. In June due to the South-west monsoon, the precipitation reaches its peak, with an average of 556Β mm (Edavappathy). A brief spell of pre-monsoon "mango showers" hits the village sometime during March. April is the warmest month of the year and due to environmental changes such as loss of tree cover, summer begins with spikes of warm humid weather. The temperature in April averages 29.1Β Β°C. In July, the average temperature is 26.5Β Β°C. December is the coolest month of the year. The average temperatures vary during the year by 2.6Β Β°C. The retreating monsoon with afternoon precipitation accompanied by thunder and lightning starts from mid-October (Thulavarsham). Monsoon seasons (Karkidakam) between June and August are considered apt for ayurvedic cleansing and rejuvenation therapies. From September to March the climate is pleasant and comfortable.
Facilities
The community is provided with a range of basic amenities. The farmer's market is open on Mondays and Thursdays. Some of the major landmarks in this village are the Century Hospital, state schools VHSS and LPS (1909), Sri Dharma Shasta Temple, Nediyathu Devi Temple, Gandharva Muttam Bhagavati Temple, Parayirukala Devi Temple, Pallippadi Juma Masjid, St. Thomas Marthoma Syrian Church β Kerala headquarters of the Church of God β and St. Mary's Orthodox Church.

Albert Stewart Meek (26 October 1871 β 1 October 1943) was an English bird collector and naturalist.
Biography
Meek was born on 26 October 1871 in Bow, London, the son of a merchant in natural history. In 1893 he travelled to Australia and spent some time at George Barnardβs cattle station at Coomooboolaroo, the only place in Australia where the now-extinct paradise parrot had occurred. It is not known if Meek ever saw this species.
In 1894 he began collecting bird and insect specimens for Lionel Walter Rothschild; first in England, then in Australia. Later, in the Pacific region (in particular the Solomon Islands, New Guinea and Bougainville, he was the first naturalist who observed the birdlife).
Meek also collected reptiles for the Natural History Museum in London, including the holotype and paratype of the venomous Woodlark Island snake (Toxicocalamus longissimus) from Woodlark Island, off the east coast of British New Guinea, and described by George Albert Boulenger in 1896, as the type-species of the genus Toxicocalamus. A third specimen collected by Meek, reported to have come from Fergusson Island in the d'Entrecasteaux Islands also off the east coast of British New Guinea, is also believed to have originated from Woodlark Island. Today this rare snake is still only known from twelve specimens in four museums.
Meek became a dealer in feathers and insects. In 1904 he travelled to Choiseul, where he collected the last specimens of the Choiseul crested pigeon. But, due to the horrible reputation of the islanders as cannibals, he was protected by an armed escort to bring the skins to his vessel. On an expedition in New Guinea in 1906 he discovered and shot the first specimen of the Queen Alexandra's birdwing (Ornithoptera alexandrae), the largest butterfly in the world. While on a visit to New Guinea he estimated that the headdress of a chief needed the feathers of more than 23 killed birds (e.g., birds of paradise), just to create the middle part.
His collection of bird skins and insects is held by the Natural History Museum in London. Specimens from Meek's collections can also be seen in the American Museum of Natural History.
Meek died on 1 October 1943 at his home in Bondi, Sydney. He had two sons and two daughters: Wilfred, Victor, Gladys and Marie.
Tribute
Species named after Meek include eight full bird species:
Choiseul crested pigeon (Migrogoura meeki),
Meek's lorikeet (Charmosyna meeki),
Meek's pygmy parrot (Micropsitta meeki),
Bougainville crow (Corvus meeki),
white-throated white-eye (Zosterops meeki),
yellowish-streaked honeyeater (Ptiloprora meekiana),
North Solomons dwarf kingfisher (Ceyx meeki) and the
Manus hawk owl (Ninox meeki).
Also several butterfly and moth species were named after Meek, including
Graphium meeki,
Gnathothlibus meeki,
Delias meeki,
Angonyx meeki,
Macroglossum meeki,
Oxycanus meeki,
Bindahara meeki,
Acupicta meeki, and
Udara meeki.
In 1896, Oldfield Thomas described Emballonura beccarii meeki, a subspecies of the Beccari's sheath-tailed bat of which Meek had collected the type series on Kiriwina, Trobriand Islands.
Despite the considerable collections of reptiles made by Meek, including the holotype and paratype of the rare elapid snake Toxicocalamus longissimus, only one reptile was named in his honour, a treesnake Dendrophis meeki, by G.A.Boulenger in 1895, this species now being a synonym of Dendrelaphis gastrostictus.

Toxyn (Ruth Mastorakis) is a fictional character, a superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character is depicted as a member of the Strikeforce: Morituri. The character was created by Peter B. Gillis and Brent Anderson.
Publication history
Toxyn was created by writer Peter B. Gillis and artist Brent Anderson. She made her first cameo appearance, standing in the shadows, in the finale of Strikeforce: Morituri #5 (April 1987). She made her first full appearance in issue #6 and joined the Strikeforce: Morituri in issue #8, as part of the second-generation Morituri. She was a regular cast member until her death in issue #21. Judging from her surname and her relation to a man named "Nikos", the character appears to be at least partially of Greek origin.
Fictional character biography
In 2073, Ruth Mastorakis was an ordinary young woman, about to marry her boyfriend, a man named Nikos. For reasons unrevealed, Nikos professed he could not and should not marry her, later claiming that "you know what I am. I can't marry you!" Furthermore, Nikos beat and humiliated her in front of everybody.
Devastated after her breakup, Ruth sought something entirely different in her life. Possibly out of desperation, she decided to enlist to the Morituri program, which granted superhuman powers to its recipients, in exchange of their participating in the ongoing war against the destructive alien race known as the Horde. However, the process has a fatal side-effect: the recipient dies within a year of receiving it, after catastrophically rejecting it. Ruth was genetically compatible for the process and underwent, eventually developing the ability to analyze the biochemistry of others and synthesize poisons and their antidotes that could accordingly tackle her opponents. The nature of her powers also led her into assuming the codename "Toxyn".
Sometime later, Toxyn, together with Scaredycat and Scatterbrain, officially debuted in the media as the second generation of Morituri and met with their veteran teammates. Subsequently, Toxyn had her first official mission with the team, in San Francisco. During the course of that mission, senior member Radian, looking for a leader figure after the demise of group leader, Vyking, mistook Toxyn's self-confidence for experience and pressured her into making battle decisions, until she discouraged him from further pressing her into this position. Nevertheless, Toxyn's contribution to that battle was instrumental.
Later, having watched her achievements through the media, her ex-boyfriend, Nikos, contacted her, wishing to congratulate her. Toxyn was startled and angry that he considered congratulating her, after what he had done to her. Around the same time, the Morituri stood accused by the ruling Paedia Council of breaking regulations and going against the Horde without authorization on a particular occasion. While speaking with a Paedia official, an indignant Toxyn kissed all her teammates and secreted a deadly poison on their lips, wanting to demonstrate to her superiors the desperation the Morituri feel for every moment they are being unfairly kept away from active duty, given the short time they have left on Earth. The Council was convinced by her point and no reprimands were issued. Toxyn then administered the antidote to all her teammates.
Death
Toxyn went through many adventures with the team and eventually found herself the most veteran member of the team still active and alive (with the exception of comatose Scatterbrain). While raiding a Horde ship in orbit, the team rescued a Paedia soldier, Jason Edwards, who had been kept slave by the Horde. Jason and Toxyn flirted and when they returned to Earth, they kissed and agreed to arrange a date. Toxyn was then taken away on an ambulance by paramedics, having sustained a leg injury during the battle. However, just then, the deadly Morituri effect caught up with her and she pushed the paramedics away, proclaiming her love towards Jason. She then pushed the ambulance into a warehouse, where she exploded into oblivion without being seen.
Powers and abilities
Toxyn had the ability to analyze a person's biochemistry, through physical touch, and synthesize and secrete the whole spectrum of poisons, including their antidotes. She could produce both beneficial and harmful biochemical agents that affected both living and inanimate matter, although she needed skin-to-skin contact to produce a species specific toxin. Toxyn often kissed her opponents in battle, thus ensuring the effectiveness of her poisons, often paralyzing or instantly killing her adversaries. As a by-product of her exposure to the Morituri program, she also had enhanced strength and resilience. Like all other team members, she also wore special boots which enabled her to fly.

Proinsias Mac Airt (English: Frank Card) (18 April 1922 β 8 January 1992) was an Irish republican activist and long-serving member of the Irish Republican Army.
Early years
Mac Airt was born in Belfast in April 1922. He first became involved in Irish republicanism as a boy when he joined the Fianna Γireann. His first imprisonment was in 1942 when the youthful Mac Airt was sent to jail for illegal military foot drilling. Mac Airt was later interned during the Irish Republican Army's Border Campaign of 1956-1962.
Founding the PIRA
Having retired at some earlier point Mac Airt returned to the republican movement in 1969, throwing his lot in with the newly established Provisional Irish Republican Army (PIRA) and their political arm Provisional Sinn FΓ©in. Indeed, in early 1970 his Padraig Pearse cumann, which he set up in the Clonard area of the Falls Road, was the first branch of Provisional Sinn FΓ©in established in Belfast and proved central to the growth of the dissident party in the city. In August 1970 Mac Airt was appointed editor of the Belfast-based Republican News, succeeding Jimmy Steele who had died soon after being appointed editor. Despite his advancing age Mac Airt also became involved in the gun battles that raged between the republicans from Falls and loyalists from the neighbouring Shankill Road. As a consequence Mac Airt became one of the leaders of the nascent PIRA in Belfast. Mac Airt was publicly named as a leading republican by General Anthony Farrar-Hockley who had commanded the British Army present during the clashes and with whom Mac Airt had held failed negotiations at the scene of conflict. He served as Adjutant to Billy McKee, who was first commander of the Provisional IRA Belfast Brigade. According to Brendan Hughes Mac Airt's Kane Street home doubled as Belfast Brigade headquarters at this early stage in the movement's history.
On 15 April 1971 Mac Airt, along with Billy McKee, was arrested by the British Army when found in possession of a handgun. Both men were sentenced under the Explosive Substances Act 1883 and sent to Crumlin Road Gaol. In the prison the two men were recognised as the leaders of the republican prisoners, a role held by Gusty Spence on the loyalist side. Mac Airt and McKee co-operated informally with Spence to maintain order until they agreed to establish an official Camp Council. The make-up of this group saw Mac Airt and McKee representing the PIRA, Spence and an associate identified only as "Robert" representing the Ulster Volunteer Force and Ned McCreery and James Craig as Ulster Defence Association delegates, with members of the Official IRA and Irish National Liberation Army eventually added.
Later activity
Mac Airt was involved in the talks held between republicans and clergymen from various Protestant churches held at Feakle on 12 December 1974. Whilst the talks produced little Mac Airt was one of those who maintained contact with the clergymen. Indeed, on 19 January 1975 one of the ministers, Rev William Arlow of the Irish Council of Churches, even introduced Mac Airt and his ally Jimmy Drumm to British government officials Michael Oatley and James Allan in an attempt to have the republican grievances heard.
Although a new generation of leaders emerged in the PIRA and Sinn FΓ©in Mac Airt remained an influential veteran. He was close to Danny Morrison and Tom Hartley and helped to ensure the removal of SeΓ‘n Caughey from the editorship of Republican News in 1975 and his replacement by Morrison.
Irish Songs of Freedom
In 1968 Mac Airt recorded two vocal songs; Croppy Boy and Flag of the Fianna on the LP record 'Irish Songs of Freedom' produced for the Outlet Recording Co. Ltd, Belfast.
Death
Mac Airt died in 1992 at the age of 69. Sinn FΓ©in President Gerry Adams delivered the graveside oration at his funeral, describing him as "a radical in the Connolly tradition".

Othello Molineaux (born 1939) is a jazz steelpan player who spent much of his early career with Jaco Pastorius. He was among the earliest musicians to adapt the steelpan to jazz. He has worked with Monty Alexander, Chicago, and David Johansen.
Career
Born in a family of musicians, his mother being a piano teacher and his father playing the violin, he learned the piano very young, and at the age of eleven began to play the steelpan. He left Trinidad in 1969 and began a career as a pianist, while continuing to play the steelpan. It is with his group mixing steelpan and conventional instruments that he moved to Miami in 1971. There he met bassist Jaco Pastorius and played in 1976 on his first album, which allowed him to appear on the jazz-rock scene. From then on, he would go on to concerts around the world, collaborating with big names in jazz including Dizzy Gillespie, Herbie Hancock, Monty Alexander, Weather Report, Joe Zawinul, Ahmad Jamal.
Othello Molineaux is recognized as having revealed steelpan to jazz as a solo instrument and improvisation, like the piano. He has mainly been an accompanist, notably of Jaco Pastorius, participating in almost all of his albums, and in the tour with the big band Word of Mouth. The latter which will also devote a record to steelpan, Holiday for Pans (1982). Othello Molineaux began his solo career in 1993 with the album It's About Time, on the Big World Music label.
He also collaborated with Habana Abierta on the album Boomerang (2006).

The Occupy movement has been met with a variety of responses from local police departments since its beginning in 2011.
According to documents obtained by the Partnership for Civil Justice Fund, the FBI, state and local law enforcement officials treated the movement as a potential criminal and terrorist threat and used fusion centers and counterterrorism agents to investigate and monitor the Occupy movement.
Pepperspraying at Occupy Wall Street - September 24
At least 80 arrests were made on September 24, Videos which showed several penned-in female demonstrators being hit with pepper spray by a police official were widely disseminated, sparking controversy. That police official was identified as Deputy Inspector Anthony Bologna. After an investigation, Deputy Inspector Bologna, who makes an annual salary of $154,000, was transferred to a different station, and lost two weeks vacation time over the incident.
Public attention to the pepper-sprayings resulted in a spike of news media coverage, a pattern that was to be repeated in the coming weeks following confrontations with police. Clyde Haberman described the resultant public attention as a "big boost" that was "vital" for the still nascent Occupy movement.
Wounded veteran at Occupy Oakland - October 25
On October 25, 2011, Scott Olsen, a 24-year-old Iraq War veteran suffered a skull fracture caused by a projectile that witnesses believed was a tear gas or smoke canister fired by the police.
A video by protesters shows the explosion of what appears to be a flash-bang device thrown by one officer near protesters attempting to aid Olsen. The Associated Press later reported that it was not known exactly what kind of object had struck Olsen or who had thrown or fired it, but that protesters had been throwing rocks and bottles.
Olsen was rushed to the hospital by other protesters, who were fired upon with unknown police projectiles while attempting to aid him. Doctors said that he was in critical condition. Scott Olsen has since undergone brain surgery. At least two other protesters were injured. No officers have been disciplined over the incident.
The American Civil Liberties Union and National Lawyers Guild called for an investigation into the use of excessive force.
Multiple incidents at Occupy Oakland - Nov 2/3
Videographer shooting
Shortly before 1Β am on November 3, Oakland resident Scott Campbell was shot by police using a less-lethal round while he was filming a stationary line of police in riot gear, hours after the 2011 Oakland general strike. The apparently unprovoked shooting was documented by the resulting point-of-view video from Campbell's own camera.
Veteran beaten
Kayvan Sabeghi, a 32-year-old local business owner and former U.S. Army Ranger, was hit with a baton numerous times by a police officer then arrested on the evening of November 2, 2011. While in police custody, he complained of severe pain and asked for medical treatment but was transferred to a hospital only after 14β18 hours of imprisonment. Sabeghi underwent emergency surgery for a ruptured spleen and remained in the intensive care unit.
Journalist Arrested
Susie Cagle, a journalist, was arrested while wearing an Alternet press badge at the protests and was detained for 14 hours.
Badge covered
On the November 2 protests, Officer John Hargraves was filmed having placed black tape over his name on his police uniform. When questioned by a civilian, Officer Hargraves refused to respond. The civilian then spoke with Lt. Clifford Wong, one of several nearby officers. Lt. Wong approached Officer Hargraves and silently removed the tape from the officer's uniform.
Internal Affairs Division learned of the events on November 4 and began an investigation. "Deliberate concealment of a badge or name plate" is a Class I offense, the most serious classification. As a result, Officer Hargraves was ordered suspended for 30 days, but has remained on the job pending a disciplinary appeal. "Failure to report others who commit any Class I offense" is also a Class I Offense. Lt. Wong was demoted to the rank of Sergeant.
In January 2012, a US District Court described the events as "the most serious level of misconduct" and noted that it is a crime for officers to conceal their names or badge numbers. The District Court is considering further sanctions against the involved officers.
Additionally, the District Court has stripped the Oakland Police Department of some of its independence, with a potential eye towards placing the Oakland Police under the control of a federal receivership.
Incident at UC Berkeley - Nov 9
On November 9, 2011, students and professors at UC Berkeley participated in a series of "teach-outs" around campus, a noon rally and march. Approximately 1,500 demonstrators attended the days' events. The march route included a Bank of America location adjacent to campus. Not long after demonstrators set up seven tents in front of Upper Sproul Plaza in the mid-afternoon, law enforcement officials from UC Berkeley Police, the Alameda County Sheriff's Office and other UC Police officers in riot gear arrived to remove the tents. Protesters linked arms to form a human chain in front of the tents to prevent officers from dismantling the encampment. Police used 36-inch riot batons to "jab" and push back the protesters and to break the human chain.
Video footage of the afternoon confrontation shows police using batons and dragging two protesters by the hair, one of whom was UC Berkeley English professor Celeste Langan. 39 protesters, including Professor Langan, were arrested for charges including "resisting and delaying a police officer in the performance of their duties and failure to disperse when given a dispersal order." Robert Hass, a UC Berkeley professor of poetry and former United States Poet Laureate, wrote about the police response in a November 19 New York Times opinion piece entitled "Poet-Bashing Police":
the deputies in the cordon surged forward and, using their clubs as battering rams, began to hammer at the bodies of the line of students. It was stunning to see. They swung hard into their chests and bellies. Particularly shocking to me β it must be a generational reaction β was that they assaulted both the young men and the young women with the same indiscriminate force. If the students turned away, they pounded their ribs. If they turned further away to escape, they hit them on their spines.
Hass himself was hit in the ribs by a police officer wielding a baton. His wife Brenda Hillman was shoved to the ground by a police officer.
Pepperspraying at Occupy Seattle - November 15
On November 15, a march commenced from the Seattle Central Community College campus to Belltown. At one point during the march a 17-year-old female swung a stick at an officer. After officers moved in to arrest the female the officers were hindered in their efforts, after issuing an order to disperse the officers deployed pepper spray to move subjects away from them so they could arrest the female suspect. Police were filmed spraying the crowd of people with pepper spray. It was reported that the victims included "a 4-foot 10-inch, 84-year-old woman, a priest and a woman, Jennifer Fox, who claimed the pepper spray led to a miscarriage." The 84-year-old woman, Dorli Rainey, is a former mayoral candidate and retired school teacher who has been active in City government on education and transportation issues since the 1960s. That night, Rainey was en route to City Hall to attend a scheduled meeting of the Seattle City Council's Transportation Committee. Rainey had served on the school board, and in the 1970s ran for a seat on King County Council. In 2009, Rainey, then 82 years old, made a brief run for Seattle Mayor before withdrawing from the race citing her age: "I am old and should learn to be old, stay home, watch TV and sit still." However, regarding the possible miscarriage by Jennifer Fox, doubts have been cast on the truth of her claim.
Dorli Rainey was notably photographed as she was being carried away by friends after having been hit with the police's chemical spray.
Pepperspraying at Occupy UC Davis - November 18
On November 18, UC Davis Police arrived wearing riot gear at 3:30 pm and began removing tents and arresting demonstrators obstructing the removal of tents. A group of demonstrators staged a sit-in on the walkway in the quad, linking arms together and refusing to move. Students began surrounding campus police officers and demanded release of the detained protesters in return for letting the officers leave. Campus police officers asked the demonstrators to move several times, but the students refused.
Sometime around 4:00 pm, two officers began spraying pepper spray directly in the faces of the sitting students. Bystanders recorded the incident with cell phone cameras, while members of the crowd chanted "Shame on you" and "Let them go" at the police officers. Eleven protesters received medical treatment; two were hospitalized.
According to university officials, the officers felt like they were surrounded by the demonstrators. One of the officers who used pepper spray on the students was identified as Lieutenant John Pike. Ten arrests were made. Arrestees were "cited and released on misdemeanor charges of unlawful assembly and failure to disperse". Police began to leave the area around 4:10 pm as more students began to arrive.
Lieutenant John Pike and another unnamed UC Davis Police officer were placed on administrative leave shortly after the incident. UC Davis Police Chief Annette Spicuzza was later placed on leave as well.
Mass Arrest at Oakland - January 28
On January 28, 2012, Oakland Police arrested over 400 people, including at least six journalists. One of the imprisoned journalist emerged after 20 hours of imprisonment and reported witnessing police brutality and cruel treatment. charges were dropped for virtually all of the 400 arrested individuals.
The National Lawyers Guild of Northern California alleges a number of human rights abuses, including hundreds of unlawful arrests, physical assaults. The guild claims that many imprisoned protestors were being denied counsel or being denied medical care or medications.
Stun gun use at Occupy DC - January 30
On January 30, US Park Police were filmed using a stun gun several times during an arrest at Occupy DC. The man had been arrested for removing eviction notices, and tazed after resisting arrest.
Police Raid at Occupy Buffer Zone in Cyprus - April 6, 2012
On April 6, 2012, strong police force from the Republic of Cyprus gathered in the area occupied by the activists and raided the occupied buildings at around 10:15pm. The operation included the anti-terrorist department and the anti-drug department of the police force. Policemen, equipped with guns, helmets and batons smashed the door and entered the building. A sequence of screaming and sounds of smashing and breaking followed. The police reported that it made 28 arrests, including 11 minors and that it had confiscated 1 gram of cannabis.
The police was reported to have used excessive and unjustified violence in the operation. Eyewitnesses reported that the police repeatedly hit a 24-year-old woman, "causing a massive bump to her forehead, as well as multiple cuts and bruises". Reports were also made of sexual assault on a 19-year-old woman, the beating of two activists that were arrested in the building, and for unjustified violence on the crowd of activists and passers by that had gathered outside the building.

Waccamaw River Memorial Bridge is a historic bridge located at Conway in Horry County, South Carolina.
It was built in 1937 and opened to the public in April 1938, designated as a memorial to Horry County citizens who served in America's wars from the American Revolution through the First World War. Its cost was $370,000. It is 1,270 feet long and carries U.S. RouteΒ 501 Business over the Waccamaw River. It is a multi-span continuous steel girder bridge made up of four steel girder main spans, four continuous steel string approach spans, and concrete piers which support the bridge deck. It features 28 cast-iron light standards along the balustrade, and the Gothic-influenced pointed arches cut out of its concrete piers.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.

Tal & Qual (Tal e Qual, ; loose translation: Just Like That) is a weekly Portuguese tabloid newspaper published between 1980 and 2007 and started a second series in 2021. The paper is based in Lisbon.
History and profile
Tal & Qual first appeared in July 1980 and was published weekly on Fridays. The newspaper was owned by the Projornal media company. Then it became part of the Controlinveste group. It had a populist stance and was a sensationalist weekly. Its last edition came out on 28 September 2007. The paper closed because of a drop in circulation, down from over 21,000 in 2004 to 13,000 by the end of 2006.
On 31 August 2007, the parents of Madeleine McCann announced that they were suing the newspaper for libel after the newspaper reported that the "police believe" Kate and Gerry McCann killed Madeleine, suggesting she may have died in an accident or from a drugs overdose. The police stressed that the McCanns were not suspects (at the time: they later became so), but Tal & Qual stood by the story. The journalist who wrote the article, Catarina Vaz Guerreiro, said "I can't reveal my source, but I have complete trust in them. I strongly believe that the person that gave us this information is telling the truth."
Tal & Qual returned to print in May 2021, published by PΓ‘rem as MΓ‘quinas, a reporter's company. Most of the shareholders are old Tal&Qual journalists. It's now the second most sold weekly newspaper. Jorge Morais also returned as director and JosΓ© Paulo Fafe (former editor-in-chief) as the publisher.

Production
The album was recorded in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. It was produced by Rick Hall. The horn arrangements were by Harrison Calloway, Jr.
Critical reception
The New Rolling Stone Record Guide wrote that the album "manages to update the tracksβincluding the inspired 'Lay Me Like You Hate Me', a summation of Pickett's philosophy of romanceβwithout losing the singer's distinctive style." The Bay State Banner deemed it a " dirty-old-man-at-the-disco album." The Globe and Mail called it "an excellent wild dancing album."

Transmembrane channel-like protein 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the TMC6 gene. In vivo, TMC6 and its homolog TMC8, interact and form a complex with the zinc transporter 1 (SLC30A1) and localize mostly to the endoplasmic reticulum, but also to the nuclear membrane and Golgi apparatus.
Inactivating mutations in TMC6 or TMC8 have been implicated as the genetic cause of the rare skin disorder epidermodysplasia verruciformis, which is characterized by abnormal susceptibility to human papillomaviruses (HPVs) of the skin resulting in the growth of scaly macules and papules, particularly on the hands and feet.

City is a German rock band, formed in East Berlin in 1972, best known for the song "Am Fenster" ("At/By The Window") from its 1978 debut album.
The band was founded as the City Band Berlin by Fritz Puppel (guitar), Klaus Selmke (drums), Ingo Doering (bass guitar), Klaus Witte (keyboards), Frank Pfeiffer (vocals) and Andreas Pieper (flute). The lineup changed frequently in the band's early years, but stabilized by 1976, with Puppel and Selmke joined by Bulgarian violinist and bassist Georgi Gogow and vocalist-guitarist Toni Krahl. They changed their name to City Rock Band and eventually to simply City.
City toured extensively in East Germany, and was given the opportunity to record an album in 1978. The eponymous City showcased the band's guitar-driven rock; several songs are parables, such as "Der King vom Prenzlauer Berg" (The King Of Prenzlauer Berg), about a young man who gets into too many fights; and "Meister aller Klassen" (Masters Of All Classes"), about cocky motorcyclists whose desire for speed ends in tragedy.
The band's greatest commercial success, however, was the atypical folk rock-influenced "Am Fenster" (At the Window), which arose from a jam session in the studio when Gogow began to play on his violin. It eventually coalesced into a three-part, 17-minute piece (as well as a four-minute version for radio play). An immediate hit in East Germany, it also became successful in West Germany and was a success in countries such as Greece. Following the song's success, City sold half a million copies. In 2019, Am Fenster was voted by a jury as the best song of all time from East Germany.

She teaches workshops on vocal techniques which she has collected through her travels at the Grotowski Center (Poland), Giving Voice Festival (UK), International Workshop Festival (Israel), The Royal Shakespeare Co. (London), as well as many academic institutions, including Harvard, Swarthmore, SUNY Buffalo, NYU and UC Santa Barbara.
In July 2005, she taught workshops at the University of Kabul (Afghanistan). In 2006, she was a guest musical director for the Art Atelier Program curated by Toni Morrison at Princeton University. In 2008, Sadovska became a Fulbright scholar.

William Garnsworthy Bennett (22 May 1896 β 25 November 1977) was a Western Australian architect, well known for his Art Deco and Inter-War Functionalist style of civic, commercial and domestic buildings, including the Lord Forrest Olympic Pool in Kalgoorlie, the Beverley Town Hall, the Raffles Hotel and Plaza Theatre and Arcade in Perth.
Bennett was born in Victoria in 1896, and came to Western Australia with his family in 1910. He studied architectural drafting at Perth Technical School and joined the Young Australia League. In 1920, he was articled to architect Coote and, four years later, became the first locally trained architect to pass the Architectβs Board of Examination. He was awarded the first Bronze Medal of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects (WA) the following year, and served as the Instituteβs secretary from 1924β29. In 1931, he became the first West Australian architect to become an Associate (Overseas) Member of the Royal Institute of British Architects. Bennett was the first West Australian to hold the positions of president of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects, and president of the Royal Australian Planning Institute.
Before setting up practice on his own in 1936, William Bennett was in charge of the drawing office at Eales and Cohen, where he worked with art deco theatre designer, William T. Leighton. Among the work that passed through William Bennettβs office in the late 1930s were: the Dalkeith and Nedlands tennis clubs; Lord Forrest Olympic Pool, Kalgoorlie, Western Australia; infant health centres at Dalkeith, Manjimup and Nedlands; the Scarborough, Ocean Beach, Majestic and Raffles hotels in Perth, Checkers Hotel Bullsbrook, Sawyers Valley Tavern and a hotel in Beverley; Plaza Theatre and Arcade in the Hay Street Mall, and the Regal Theatre in Subiaco with William Leighton; Applecross town hall, the Masonic Temple, Nedlands; the Young Australia League headquarters building in Murray Street, a number of private houses in suburbs such as Dalkeith, Cottesloe and South Perth; and over a dozen buildings and structures at Araluen. Bennett was also responsible for the refurbishment of Bunburyβs Rose Hotel, the Mount Barker Hotel, and Perth Motor House with Powell, Cameron and Chisholm.

Brief Encounters is a studio album by French singer Amanda Lear, released in 2009 by independent label Just Good Music for Your Ears.
Background
Amanda Lear met the singer and producer Enrico Petrelli in Paris in 2008, and started working on the album in the autumn of 2008, with recording sessions taking place in Rome and Paris. Together with PMG (Prolific Media Group) producers Carl M Cox and Nathan Thomas, she recorded a song called "Doin' Fine", previously recorded by Australian singer-producer Peter Wilson. Wilson and his songwriting partner Chris Richards have contributed four songs to the album, however, only two would make the cut, while the other two were included in Lear's next musical project. PMG continued to work with Amanda in 2009 producing two remixes of the ballad "Someone Else's Eyes".
Lear announced that new album was in the works in late 2008 on French and Italian TV. The album was then previewed at the annual Midem music conference in France on 18β20 January. Originally scheduled for April 2009 release, then the summer, it was eventually released on 16 October 2009 in Italy. A two-CD set, Brief Encounters consists of downtempo pop songs and ballads on disc 1 ('For the Heart'), and uptempo dance tracks and remixes on disc 2 ('For the Feet'). The album included a number of cover versions of tracks like Amy Winehouse's "Back to Black", Lenny Kravitz's "I Belong to You" and Lou Reed's "Perfect Day" alongside new songs, written mainly by Enrico Petrelli and Amanda Lear.
The official track list posted in early 2009 on the album's site originally included two songs written by Peter Wilson and Chris Richards ("Brand New Love Affair", "C'est la vie") as well as "It's Hard to Say Goodbye" and "It's a Good Day" on disc 2, which were all replaced with remixes of "For What I Am", "Someone Else's Eyes" and "This Is Not America". The acoustic version of "Cupidon" on disc 1 was replaced with the "Someone Else's Eyes" video.
"Someone Else's Eyes", the duet with Enrico "Deadstar" Petrelli, was chosen as the album's lead and only single at that time, although promo video for "Doin' Fine" was also produced, and in 2012, "Back to Black" was released as a 3-track digital single. Brief Encounters was soon followed by the release of a dance music-oriented EP Brand New Love Affair.
On 28 December 2009, acoustic versions of selected songs from the album were recorded for a new CD called Brief Encounters Acoustique and sold via the album's official website. This version included a new recording of Vladimir Cosma's "Reality". A remix album called Brief Encounters Reloaded was released in May 2010, promoted by Boy George's remixes of "Someone Else's Eyes". It also included a cover of Culture Club's "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me". A re-edition of the acoustic version, called Brief Encounters Acoustique β Golden Edition, was released at the beginning of 2011.

Ebenezer Teichelmann (23 March 1859 β 20 December 1938), known as 'the little Doctor' to his friends, was an Australian-born surgeon, mountaineer, explorer, conservationist and photographer in New Zealand. He was a survivor of the sinking of the SS Marquette in 1915. He achieved 26 first ascents of mountains and seven first ascents, or crossings, of passes, cols, or saddles, and is credited with reviving climbing in New Zealand when the sport was almost dead. A keen photographer, he used a full-plate glass camera, which was hauled up many mountains. His photographs were used in books and advertisements, and helped to achieve conservation status for West Coast reserves.
Early life and education
Teichelmann was born on 23 March 1859 near Callington, South Australia, the ninth child of fifteen born to German Lutheran missionary Christian Teichelmann and his Scottish wife Margaret, Nicholson. The Teichelmanns could only afford secondary education for one child, Ebenezer. The family worked a farm, also called Ebenezer, at Morphett Vale, outside Adelaide, finding the funds available to a missionary to be insufficient to support them.
Teichelmann was educated at Hahndorf College, and boarded there from 1869β1873, but when the family moved to the Yorke Peninsula in 1873 Teichelmann remained behind in Adelaide and had himself apprenticed to a pharmacist. Finishing his apprenticeship, he was able to work as a dispensing chemist to a doctor while studying medicine at the University of Adelaide.
In 1882, Teichelmann travelled to Queen's College, Birmingham and demonstrated physiology at Mason Science College. Teichelmann undertook postgraduate study in Dublin, specialising in surgery, and at St Bartholomew's Hospital in London. After this he served as assistant physician and resident pathologist at Birmingham General Hospital, assistant surgeon at Jaffray Hospital, and resident medical officer to the Birmingham Workhouse. During the ten years he spent in England and Ireland, Teichelmann also worked as private assistant to Lawson Tait, a gynaecologist who pioneered surgical treatment of ectopic pregnancy, in Birmingham and for two years had a private practice. He had also become a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, a Licentiate of the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, and an Associate of the Mason Science College in Birmingham.
While in Birmingham, Teichelmann met Mary Bettney (c. 1863β1909), who had been matron at a Birmingham hospital. They were married in West Bromwich in the last quarter of 1891.
Return to Adelaide
In 1892, the Teichelmanns travelled to Melbourne, with Teichelmann working as the ship's doctor on the Yarrawonga. On his return Teichelmann took up the post of health officer at Port Adelaide. Teichelmann worked for five years in Adelaide, during which he was a Surgeon Lieutenant and then Surgeon Captain for the South Australian military, and was locum tenens for Professor Edward Stirling, professor of physiology at Adelaide University, while he was on leave in England. The Adelaide hospital was in dispute with its staff for much of the 1890s (see Margaret Graham), and in 1896 there was a mass resignation of honorary and medical staff, although with staff continuing to care for their patients until replacements were appointed. When Teichelmann was offered a position as Senior Surgeon he declined, explaining later "I did not care to go back on my brother professionals. My one chance in Adelaide was gone and I decided to go away."
Emigration to New Zealand
Teichelmann successfully applied for the position of Surgical Superintendent of the Westland District Hospital, in Hokitika on the West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand. In 1897, the Teichelmanns arrived in Hokitika, where Teichelmann initially set up his private practice in a room at the Kellers Hotel, before commissioning a builder to construct a new residence and private surgery on 20 Hamilton Street. As the sole doctor to a population scattered over 380 kilometres of rugged coastline, Teichelmann was required to be an excellent surgeon and a good administrator. The Westland Hospital provided maternity, surgical, geriatric and medical services, using four wards capable of holding 50 patients. Teichelmann also operated private consulting rooms and a small nursing and convalescent hospital at his Hamilton Street residence, staffed by an onsite housekeeper and a nurse. He was ably assisted for many years both in his private practice and at the hospital by nurse Bess Hudson.
Teichelmann's responsibilities required him to travel at all hours of the day or night in what was a remote and rugged area, often with little more than a track to follow, and where few rivers were bridged. Accidents were commonplace, with mining, land clearing and tree felling being common activities in the area. The year Teichelmann arrived, he treated several people for smoke inhalation and burns after fire destroyed eight buildings on Revell Street, including the Golden Age Hotel, and the Hokitika Guardian and Evening Star newspaper offices and archives. The following year a fall of sand and soil buried miners in Craig's Freehold in South Hokitika, killing three men. On one occasion Teichelmann and Nurse Hudson manned a railway jigger for at night to reach a patient in Ruatapu.
The Teichelmanns settled easily into small-town life. Mary Teichelmann became known as an emancipated woman and a trendsetter, and was the first woman in the town to smoke in public, play golf, and one of the first to drive a car. She also supported the hospital by raising more than Β£8 for an invalid chair, for which she received a public vote of thanks. In 1909, aged 46, Mary became ill and spent several days in bed. She died suddenly of a heart attack while her husband was at Blue Spur, and the local newspaper reported that a gloom was cast over the entire town at her unexpected death.
In 1912, Teichelmann requested a leave of absence from his post to update his medical skills, citing the isolation of his position, and New Zealand as a whole, as a motivating factor. He planned to spend seven or eight months observing doctors in major hospitals in Europe, before a holiday in the Swiss Alps. The township farewelled him on 22 March 1912, in a gathering at the Hotel Westland, with speeches and a rendition of La Marseillaise, and presented him with a gold watch and chain. Teichelmann travelled to Europe, spending time in Birmingham, Edinburgh, Vienna, Dresden, Leipzig and Paris, as well as period climbing in Zermatt, and attending the sixth International Gynecological and Obstetric Congress in Berlin. On his return to New Zealand in January 1913 he described the advances in motor transport in London, such that horses were rarely to be seen, and several visits to Hendon aerodrome, where he was impressed with England's progress in aviation, but also mentioned that prevalent strikes made things generally unsatisfactory.
War service
With a German father and a Scottish mother, Teichelmann was in an unenviable position when war was declared on 4 August 1914. He was a Surgeon Major in the New Zealand Medical Corps with the 13th Canterbury Regiment since 1907, and he expected to serve but was not initially called up, possibly because of his German name or his age. Teichelmann wrote to the British War Office and to James Allen, the New Zealand Defence Minister, requesting to be allowed to do his duty, and was eventually called up to the Medical Corps on 25 August 1915, and assigned to the Sixth Reinforcements. He sailed in September 1915 and joined the No 1 Stationary Hospital in Port Said Egypt on 9 October 1915. Shortly after his arrival the hospital was instructed to move to another location. Teichelmann boarded the troopship SS Marquette in Alexandria along with other medical personnel from the hospital, including a contingent of 36 New Zealand nurses, and the Ammunition Column of the British 29th Division. Four days later, in the Gulf of Salonika, the Marquette was torpedoed and sank within seven minutes. One hundred and seventy people died, some in the explosion, some when lifeboats were incorrectly launched, and some by drowning or exhaustion. Teichelmann spent several hours in the water but was eventually rescued.
The Stationary Hospital was reestablished using marquees in Lembet Camp in Greece, where they received patients from the front lines in Doiran and Gallipoli. Alongside the more usual problems of typhoid, para-typhoid, and dysentery, strong winds, sleet and snow at the end of November 1915 caused severe frostbite injuries which Teichelmann, with his mountaineering experience, was well-qualified to treat. In March 1916, the Stationary Hospital was relocated back to Port Said, and then in July of that year Teichelmann was attached to the 2nd General Hospital based in Le Havre, France.
It was around this time that the Anti-German League in New Zealand was stirring up sentiment against people with German heritage and German-sounding names. MP for Grey Lynn, John Payne, tabled a list of 50 names of "German suspects" in Parliament, including that of Teichelmann, prompting a strong response from Hokitika Mayor George Perry, who said "Dr Teichelmann has been for twenty years a citizen of this town and is widely known and respected. He is a British Subject, and the Council of which he was a member deeply resents the action of the member for Grey Lynn in bringing Dr Teichelmann's name before the House in the list of German suspects and regards his action as an insufferable insult to the town and district."
Teichelmann served at the Hornchurch Convalescent Hospital and the Codford Depot on Salisbury Plain, before returning to New Zealand as surgeon aboard the hospital ship SS Maheno, arriving in December 1916. Shortly after his return, in January 1917, a close friend Dr Herbert Macandrew died. Macandrew was honorary curator of the Hokitika Museum, and had been active in the Westland Institute with Teichelmann. Macandrew had been medical officer at the Seaview Asylum and Teichelmann took over this role from 1916 to 1921.
In 1918, the influenza epidemic came to Hokitika. News from Europe prepared people in New Zealand for what to expect. The first cases in Hokitika were reported on 13 November, and were followed the next day by a public meeting calling for volunteers to assist with dealing with the effects. Inhalation chambers were set up in the library and a drill shed, and on 15 November, when Westland Hospital was already crowded with patients, Teichelmann opened a further twenty beds at the Victoria School. Further beds were placed in St Mary's Club Rooms on 19 November, by which time 13 people had already died. A medical student sent from Dunedin to assist Teichelmann became ill himself, as did many of the nursing staff, four of whom died. In less than three weeks, influenza killed 27 people in Hokitika.
Exploring and mountaineering
Between 1899 and 1924, Teichelmann recorded 26 first ascents of mountains and seven first ascents, or crossings, of passes, cols, or saddles. He is credited with
keeping climbing in New Zealand going during a period when the New Zealand Alpine Club was in abeyance. His mountaineering career began with an interest in gold-mining, a significant industry in Hokitika at the time. In 1899, Teichelmann went into partnership with brothers Charles and Harold Stoner, and Mr Lee, backing brothers Alec and Peter Graham look for gold in the Callery area. It was the connection made through his business interest that led Teichelmann to travel with Arthur Woodham, Charlie Stoner and Peter Graham into the upper Callery River, with Teichelmann keen to document their trip through photography. Peter Graham carried the doctor's full-plate camera up the Burster Range to explore the Burston and Spencer Glaciers over seven days. Although the expedition found no gold, the 40-year old Teichelmann was smitten with the mountains, and was to spend the next 25 years exploring the mountains of South Westland. Teichelmann benefited from advice from surveyors and explorers George John Roberts (1848β1910) and Charlie Douglas, who he visited often and was responsible for the medical care of in the last years of their lives.
Teichelmann was known as "the little Doctor", and described as "a small man, without an ounce of superfluous flesh" but with "amazing" physical powers. When Newton, Alec Graham and Teichelmann made the first ascent of Douglas Peak (3077m) in 1907, they took Teichelmann's full-plate camera and Newton's Sanderson, carrying more than of camera equipment between them. Newton reports that Teichelmann's companions loathed his heavy camera equipment when it was time to 'swag' in or out of a climb, but that they were always keen to see the photographs that resulted. Teichelmann was known to shelter his camera before himself if there was not space for both. As a surgeon, Teichelmann was always worried about damaging his hands, and before climbing on rock would tape his hands to limit abrasions and cuts that might affect his ability to operate.
Teichelmann regularly climbed with Canon Henry E Newton (1873β1961) and Alex Graham. Teichelmann's biographer Bob McKerrow regarded them as the "greatest climbing trio in the history of New Zealand mountaineering". Newton had arrived on the West Coast in 1901, with a letter of introduction to Teichelmann from Bishop Julius, to take up the position of Vicar of Ross and South Westland. He was a keen mountaineer, having climbed in the Lake District and spent five seasons in the European Alps. Newton returned to England in 1907, although he visited New Zealand again in 1934, bringing his car with him, and met up with his old climbing partner. Other companions included W. Batson, a guesthouse owner from Waiho; Jack Clarke, Scottish climber R. S. Low, the Reverend Kemp, D. Nolan, and Dr Vollman, an archaeologist from Peru.
Teichelmann's list of firsts includes first ascents of Craig Peak, Mounts Gaskill, Purity, McIntosh, Ferguson and Vickers, Chancellor Dome, Engineer Col, Pioneer Pass, La Perouse, Mount Halcombe, Glacier Peak, Mount Douglas, Mount Torres, Mounts Moltke, Roon, Anderegg, Bismark, Glacier Dome (Waiatoto), Mounts Green, Walter, Chudleigh (low and middle peaks), Mount Stoddart, Snowy Peak, Mount Tyndall, Malcolm Peak, and Mount Spencer. His was the first traverse of the Victoria range, and the first crossings of Baker Saddle and Harper Saddle. In 1905 Teichelmann, Jack Clarke, Peter Graham, R. S. Low and Newton made the third ascent of Aoraki/Mount Cook, via the Zurbriggen route.
In 1903, Teichelmann was elected member of the London Alpine Society. He was elected President of the New Zealand Alpine Club in 1936, and was awarded Life Membership in 1937.
Photography
It is not clear where Teichelmann learned photography, but by the time of his arrival in Hokitika he had already acquired the necessary knowledge and equipment. Most of his images were taken with 5 x 4 film and a whole-plate camera, which despite the weight was carried to the top of many mountains. The negatives would often be developed in Alec Graham's bathroom in Waiho, although Teichelmann would use the services of professional Hokitika-based photographer Benno Thiem (1879β1934) to print the negatives and mount them on glass lantern-slides.
Teichelmann built up an extensive collection of photographs of New Zealand scenery, and made a point of taking as near complete panoramic views as possible, which was of assistance to mappers of the area. His photographs were used in books, government reports, tourism brochures and advertisements, and in a farewell speech in 1926 Mr W J Jefferies, the Chairman of the Westland County Council, recognised this publicly, saying "The Doctor's work in booklets and pamphlets has gone all over the world and he has not spared himself in his efforts to extol the beauties and attractions of Westland."
After his last climb with Newton and Graham, in 1907, Teichelmann met Alfred A. Longden at the Hermitage. Longden was the Director of Fine Arts for the British Council, and had put together the display of British Art at the International Exhibition held in Hagley Park, Christchurch, but he was also a mountaineer. Teichelmann spent time with Longden in Mount Cook before leaving for Christchurch to see the exhibition. He had many photographs exhibited of New Zealand scenery and was keen to see the display. Will Kennedy, President of the New Zealand Alpine Club, saw Teichelmann's images of Westland scenery and later said "The outstanding beauty and excellence of these photographs attracted my attention so tremendously that I longed to know the man responsible for them." The two met at the exhibition and became close friends, although when Kennedy catalogued Teichelmann's photographs for him, Teichelmann enjoyed telling everyone that he could no longer find anything.
Australian climber Freda du Faur first saw photographs of the Southern Alps at the Christchurch exhibition. Teichelmann later gave her permission to use several of his photographs in her 1915 autobiography The Conquest of Mount Cook and other climbs.
At the 1926 New Zealand and South Seas International Exhibition, negotiations for a combined display about Westland and the West Coast at the Dunedin exhibition had fallen through. Teichelmann had a collection of glass lantern slides that he was able to use to lecture about the Westland scenery, and left them behind for Tourist Department officials to show, with newspapers appreciating him as an unofficial ambassador for the region.
Conservation
Teichelmann's photographs had heightened public awareness of the scenery in Westland, and were instrumental in achieving scenic reserve status for Lake Kaniere in 1911 (where Teichelmann had a holiday cottage at Hans Bay), Punakaiki, Arthur's Pass, and the four Glacial Scenic Reserves of the Westland Tai Poutini National Park. Teichelmann was interested in botany, and struck up a friendship with botanist Leonard Cockayne. In 1915 they wrote a report on indigenous vegetation on the Port Hills, Christchurch, which opened the possibility of scenic reserves established only for their botanical value. The railway had brought large numbers of people to Arthur's Pass, and Cockayne led a campaign to protect the area. Arthur's Pass National Park was formed in 1929, and Teichelmann was a member of the first control board for the park. It was this experience on the Arthur's Pass board that probably led Teichelmann to be the driving force behind the establishment of a control board for the Lake Kaniere Scenic Reserve, which was established in 1934. The board cleared blackberry, appointed honorary rangers, and advocated for control of possums, weasels, stoats and rats due to their negative effects on native birds.
In 1930, Teichelmann and Cockayne again co-authored a report, this time on the glacial scenic reserves of Westland, as part of a Department of Lands and Survey scenery preservation report. The report details the plant life of the area, but also lists the birds to be seen, and describes "easy excursions".
Death and legacy
When Newton returned to Hokitika to stay with Teichelmann in 1934, he found him suffering from "an obscure trouble in the jaw", but otherwise he appeared to have aged little and was as interested in alpine matters as he had always been. He wrote to Newton on 3 December in 1938, expressing his intention to visit England the following summer, but died on 20 December 1938 in Hokitika, aged 79. Teichelmann is buried with his wife, Mary in Hokitika Cemetery.
Around 1920 Teichelmann moved to a new house on the corner of Hampden and Jollie Streets, but continued to consult at his Hamilton Street rooms. The house and surgery remained as a doctor's practice after his death, and after WWII housed the clinic of dentist Arnold Perry. From 1960 it was a private residence, and in 1971 became a bed and breakfast known as the Central Guest House, before being renamed Teichelmann's Bed and Breakfast in 1995. In 2000 a memorial stone bench and sculpture were erected opposite the house, beside the Carnegie Building that Teichelmann helped secure the funds for. The owner of the house, Mr Brian Ward, initiated a project to restore Teichelmann's grave. Permission was required from the family, so Ward tracked down a grand-nephew of Teichelmann's in Victoria, John Tudor, who visited the grave in 2007 and donated $250 towards the restoration project.
Mount Teichelmann, Teichelmann Peak, Teichelmann Rock, Teichelmann Creek, Teichelmann's Corner, Teichelmann's Track, and Ebenezer Peak are all named after Teichelmann.
A collection of more than 600 of Teichelmann's photographs and negatives, some of which have been digitised, are held in the MacMillan Brown Collection of the University of Canterbury.
A biography of Teichelmann was published in 2007. The foreword was written by Sir Edmund Hillary, who said"As a young climber I came to respect the climbs and exploration done by Dr. Ebenezer Teichelmann, mainly from the West Coast of New Zealand, up those long and difficult valleys such as the Cook River Valley, and his many first ascent were remarkable in that day and age of hobnail boots and long handled ice axes. His third ascent of Mt. Cook in 1905 was a wonderful achievement."The First Crossings television series included an episode recreating Teichelmann's crossing of the 'fearsome' Cook River Gorge in 1905. The episode aired on TV One on 6 August 2013.

Hobart City Hall is a public auditorium and concert venue in Hobart, Tasmania, which together with the Derwent Entertainment Centre forms one of the two major public venues in the city. It is also a commonly used emergency center during disasters such as the 2013 Tasmanian bushfires. Despite its name it is not the City of Hobart's seat of government, which is Hobart Town Hall β historically a matter of confusion.
History
Prior to the erection of the hall, the area where it stands was reserved for city markets. The building was designed by Raymond ("Rusty") N Butler in association with Flack Ricards and Frank Heyward and the building cost Β£27,000. The City Hall was completed in 1915, with a formal opening in July. It was reported as being capable of seating 5,000 people when it opened. In 1940, there were attempts to convert the hall to an indoor ice rink, however it was delayed indefinitely after the City Hall was commandeered by the army in 1940 for six months to use for storage. In 1952 it held what was at the time the largest sports carnival ever held in Tasmania, as part of an appeal by the Olympic Council to raise funds for sending Australian athletes to Helsinki Olympics.
Usage
The City Hall has served as a venue for many diverse events, including boxing matches, the 1949 Australian Basketball Championships, silent movie screenings, a ball for the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh, speeches from the Duke of Gloucester, and Miss Tasmania and Miss Australia Grand Finals. Today it also forms part of the network of locations for the Festival of Voices.

The baggy green is a cricket cap of dark myrtle green colour, which has been worn by Australian Test cricketers since around the turn of the twentieth century. The cap was not originally baggy as evidenced by photographs of early players. The cap has long been a symbol of national pride in Australia, and was described by the chief executive of the MCC as the "most famous cricket cap in the world".
While respect for the baggy green cap has always been very high, it has grown in stature since the 1990s, chiefly due to the efforts of captains Mark Taylor and Steve Waugh. Waugh regularly expressed his belief that the honouring of the traditions of the game was critical to the success of a team: "To be able to partake of these rituals and traditions has meant you have been awarded the highest honour in Australian cricket β you have been selected to play for your country."
The baggy green cap was originally supplied to the player as part of a kit of equipment, and a new one was routinely issued for each tour, with the year number on it. Former Australian players have been known to use the cap for 'non-cricketing' purposes. Bill Lawry used the cap while cleaning his pigeon's nest, while Bill Ponsford was known to wear the cap to protect his hair while painting the fence in front of his house. Ian Chappell never kept any of his baggy green caps. In the early 1990s an unofficial practice emerged amongst test players never to replace a baggy green cap, most notably by Steve Waugh. Although there is no official rule against a player obtaining a replacement cap from Cricket Australia, this almost never occurs, and the increasingly dilapidated state of an aging baggy green cap is a symbol of seniority amongst the players in the team.
During his captaincy Taylor instituted a pre-match ceremony for the awarding of a cap. This continued under Waugh, who introduced a refinement whereby new players would receive their "baggy green" from a past player of a similar discipline (batsman, spin bowler, etc.). Ponting changed it again, making the presentation himself rather than using a former player. Another tradition instituted by Taylor (but suggested by Steve Waugh, and one that has also continued) is the practice of all players wearing the cap during the first session in the field of a Test match, as a symbol of solidarity. Even Shane Warne, known for his preference for a floppy sun hat, observed this tradition without question. Modern players seldom wear the baggy green cap while batting, choosing a protective helmet instead, especially when facing faster bowlers.
Baggy green caps can in some cases be prized as valuable sporting memorabilia. The cap worn by
Sir Donald Bradman during his final season in 1948 sold in 2003 for A$425,000, and the 1953 cap of Keith Miller sold at auction for A$35,000. Even the caps of lesser-known players have fetched figures above A$10,000. The baggy green of Shane Warne was sold at auction, purchased by the Commonwealth Bank in January 2020 for A$1,007,500. Warne's cap is to be taken on a national tour, and subsequently put on display in the International Cricket Hall of Fame. The proceeds from the auction were used to support emergency services responding to 2019β20 Australian bushfire season.

An adaptive grammar is a formal grammar that explicitly provides mechanisms within the formalism to allow its own production rules to be manipulated.
Overview
John N. Shutt defines adaptive grammar as a grammatical formalism that allows rule sets (aka sets of production rules) to be explicitly manipulated within a grammar. Types of manipulation include rule addition, deletion, and modification.
Early history
The first description of grammar adaptivity (though not under that name) in the literature is generally taken to be in a paper by Alfonso Caracciolo di Forino published in 1963. The next generally accepted reference to an adaptive formalism (extensible context-free grammars) came from Wegbreit in 1970 in the study of extensible programming languages, followed by the dynamic syntax of Hanford and Jones in 1973.
Collaborative efforts
Until fairly recently, much of the research into the formal properties of adaptive grammars was uncoordinated between researchers, only first being summarized by Henning Christiansen in 1990 in response to a paper in ACM SIGPLAN Notices by Boris Burshteyn. The Department of Engineering at the University of SΓ£o Paulo has its Adaptive Languages and Techniques Laboratory, specifically focusing on research and practice in adaptive technologies and theory. The LTA also maintains a page naming researchers in the field.
Terminology and taxonomy
While early efforts made reference to dynamic syntax and extensible, modifiable, dynamic, and adaptable grammars, more recent usage has tended towards the use of the term adaptive (or some variant such as adaptativa, depending on the publication language of the literature). Iwai refers to her formalism as adaptive grammars, but this specific use of simply adaptive grammars is not typically currently used in the literature without name qualification. Moreover, no standardization or categorization efforts have been undertaken between various researchers, although several have made efforts in this direction.
The Shutt classification (and extensions)
Shutt categorizes adaptive grammar models into two main categories:
Imperative adaptive grammars vary their rules based on a global state changing over the time of the generation of a language.
Declarative adaptive grammars vary their rules only over the space of the generation of a language (i.e., position in the syntax tree of the generated string).
Jackson refines Shutt's taxonomy, referring to changes over time as global and changes over space as local, and adding a hybrid time-space category:
Time-space adaptive grammars (hybrids) vary their rules over either the time or the space (or both) of the generation of a language (and local and global operations are explicitly differentiated by the notation for such changes).
Adaptive formalisms in the literature
Adaptive formalisms may be divided into two main categories: full grammar formalisms (adaptive grammars), and adaptive machines, upon which some grammar formalisms have been based.
Adaptive grammar formalisms
The following is a list (by no means complete) of grammar formalisms that, by Shutt's definition above, are considered to be (or have been classified by their own inventors as being) adaptive grammars. They are listed in their historical order of first mention in the literature.
Extensible context-free grammars (Wegbreit)
Described in Wegbreit's doctoral dissertation in 1970, an extensible context-free grammar consists of a context-free grammar whose rule set is modified according to instructions output by a finite state transducer when reading the terminal prefix during a leftmost derivation. Thus, the rule set varies over position in the generated string, but this variation ignores the hierarchical structure of the syntax tree. Extensible context-free grammars were classified by Shutt as imperative.
Christiansen grammars (Christiansen)
First introduced in 1985 as Generative Grammars and later more elaborated upon, Christiansen grammars (apparently dubbed so by Shutt, possibly due to conflict with Chomsky generative grammars) are an adaptive extension of attribute grammars. Christiansen grammars were classified by Shutt as declarative.
The redoubling language is demonstrated as follows:
<programβG> β <dclβGβw> <bodyβ{w-rule}>
where w-rule =
<bodyβGβ> β w
<dclβGβchβ’w> β <charβGβch> <dclβGβw>
<dclβGβ<>> β <Ξ΅>
<charβGβa> β a
Bottom-up modifiable grammars, top-down modifiable grammars, and USSA (Burshteyn)
First introduced in May 1990 and later expanded upon in December 1990, modifiable grammars explicitly provide a mechanism for the addition and deletion of rules during a parse. In response to the ACM SIGPLAN Notices responses, Burshteyn later modified his formalism and introduced his adaptive Universal Syntax and Semantics Analyzer (USSA) in 1992. These formalisms were classified by Shutt as imperative.
Recursive adaptive grammars (Shutt)
Introduced in 1993, Recursive Adaptive Grammars (RAGs) were an attempt to introduce a Turing powerful formalism that maintained much of the elegance of context-free grammars. Shutt self-classifies RAGs as being a declarative formalism.
Dynamic grammars (Boullier)
Boullier's dynamic grammars, introduced in 1994, appear to be the first adaptive grammar family of grammars to rigorously introduce the notion of a time continuum of a parse as part of the notation of the grammar formalism itself. Dynamic grammars are a sequence of grammars, with each grammar Gi differing in some way from other grammars in the sequence, over time. Boullier's main paper on dynamic grammars also defines a dynamic parser, the machine that effects a parse against these grammars, and shows examples of how his formalism can handle such things as type checking, extensible languages, polymorphism, and other constructs typically considered to be in the semantic domain of programming language translation.
Adaptive grammars (Iwai)
The work of Iwai in 2000 takes the adaptive automata of Neto further by applying adaptive automata to context-sensitive grammars. Iwai's adaptive grammars (note the qualifier by name) allow for three operations during a parse: ? query (similar in some respects to a syntactic predicate, but tied to inspection of rules from which modifications are chosen), + addition, and - deletion (which it shares with its predecessor adaptive automata).
Β§-calculus (Jackson)
Introduced in 2000 and most fully discussed in 2006, the Β§-Calculus (Β§ here pronounced meta-ess) allows for the explicit addition, deletion, and modification of productions within a grammar, as well as providing for syntactic predicates. This formalism is self-classified by its creator as both imperative and adaptive, or, more specifically, as a time-space adaptive grammar formalism, and was further classified by others as being an analytic formalism.
The redoubling language is demonstrated as follows:
grammar ww {
S ::= #phi(A.X<-"") R;
R ::= $C('[ab]') #phi(A.X<-A.X C) #phi(N<=A.X) N | R;
};
(Note on notation: In the above example, the statements identify the points in the production R that modify the grammar explicitly. represents a global modification (over time) and the statement identifies a local modification (over space). The statement in the S production effectively declares a global production called A.X by placing the empty string into that production before its reference by R.)
Adaptive devices (Neto & Pistori)
First described by Neto in 2001, adaptive devices were later enhanced and expanded upon by Pistori in 2003.
Adapser (Carmi)
In 2002, Adam Carmi introduced an LALR(1)-based adaptive grammar formalism known as Adapser. Specifics of the formalism do not appear to have been released.
Adaptive CFGs with appearance checking (Bravo)
In 2004, CΓ©sar Bravo introduced the notion of merging the concept of appearance checking with adaptive context-free grammars, a restricted form of Iwai's adaptive grammars, showing these new grammars, called Adaptive CFGs with Appearance Checking to be Turing powerful.
Adaptive machine formalisms
The formalisms listed below, while not grammar formalisms, either serve as the basis of full grammar formalisms, or are included here because they are adaptive in nature. They are listed in their historical order of first mention in the literature.
Self-modifying finite state automata (Shutt & Rubinstein)
Introduced in 1994 by Shutt and Rubinstein, Self-Modifying Finite State Automata (SMFAs) are shown to be, in a restricted form, Turing powerful.
Adaptive automata (Neto)
In 1994, Neto introduced the machine he called a structured pushdown automaton, the core of adaptive automata theory as pursued by Iwai, Pistori, Bravo and others. This formalism allows for the operations of inspection (similar to syntactic predicates, as noted above relating to Iwai's adaptive grammars), addition, and deletion of rules.

The rostral migratory stream (RMS) is a specialized migratory route found in the brain of some animals along which neuronal precursors that originated in the subventricular zone (SVZ) of the brain migrate to reach the main olfactory bulb (OB). The importance of the RMS lies in its ability to refine and even change an animal's sensitivity to smells, which explains its importance and larger size in the rodent brain as compared to the human brain, as our olfactory sense is not as developed. This pathway has been studied in the rodent, rabbit, and both the squirrel monkey and rhesus monkey. When the neurons reach the OB they differentiate into GABAergic interneurons as they are integrated into either the granule cell layer or periglomerular layer.
Although it was originally believed that neurons could not regenerate in the adult brain, neurogenesis has been shown to occur in mammalian brains, including those of primates. However, neurogenesis is limited to the hippocampus and SVZ, and the RMS is one mechanism neurons use to relocate from these areas.
Brief history
The RMS was named and discovered by J. Altman in 1969 using 3H-thymidine autoradiography in the rat brain. He traced the migration of labeled cells from the SVZ, which is situated throughout the lateral walls of the lateral ventricles, rostrally to the main olfactory bulb. He also quantitatively studied the effect of age on the size of the RMS. There is still some ongoing debate about the extent of the RMS and adult SVZ neurogenesis of new neurons in humans.
Cell biology
Vascular cells
Vascular cells are known to play a prominent role in regulating proliferation of adult neural precursors. In the adult subgranular zone (SGZ), dense clusters of dividing cells were found to be anatomically close to the vasculature, especially capillaries. Contacts between adult SVZ neuronal precursors and blood vessels are unusually permeable and frequently devoid of astrocyte and pericyte interferences, suggesting that blood-derived cues are gaining direct access to adult neural precursors and their progeny. The vasculature also provides the substrate for new neuron migration after injury in the adult striatum.
In the RMS, vascular cells are arranged parallel to the route of the migrating cells and provide a scaffolding. Glial cells are also associated with the blood vessels; communication between these cells may be important for RMS migration, for example, in BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor), a growth factor that is thought to module RMS migration.
Astrocytes
Astrocytes form gap junctions and are closely associated with the vasculature and its basal lamina in the adult SVZ and subsequently in the RMS. They may serve as an interface to modulate influences of endothelial and circulation-derived factors as well as the availability of cytokines and growth factors in this system. In addition, astrocytes derived from the neurogenic hippocampus and SVZ, but not from the non-neurogenic spinal cord, promote proliferation and neuronal fate commitment of multipotent adult neural stem cells in culture, suggesting a role in the RMS. Astrocytes express a number of secreted and membrane-attached factors both in vitro and in vivo that are known to regulate proliferation and fate specification of adult neural precursors as well as neuronal migration, maturation, and synapse formation. In the adult SVZ, astrocytes express Robo receptors and regulate the rapid migration of SLIT1-expressing neuroblasts through the RMS. Additionally, it has been proposed that the neuroblasts themselves play a role in modulating the astrocytes through Slit-Robo interactions. In the absence of Slit, astrocytic processes do not align correctly, or create the "tubes", instead running across the migrating neurons. Adult SVZ astrocytes also appear to release glutamate to regulate the survival of neuroblasts. Unique to the adult SVZ, ependymal cells lining the ventricular wall are in close association with neural precursors and their progeny, acting like a shield to protect the "neurogenic niche", a zone in which stem cells are retained after embryonic development for the production of new cells of the nervous system.
Other glial cells
Ependymal cells actively regulate neuronal fate specification of adult neural precursors through release of Noggin. Beating of the cilia of ependymal cells appears to set up concentration gradients of guidance molecules, such as cytokines TNF-Ξ± (tumor necrosis factor) and IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor), to direct migration of neuroblasts, such as in the RMS. Microglia also actively regulate adult neurogenesis. Under basal conditions, apoptotic corpses of newly generated neurons are rapidly phagocytosed from the niche by unactivated microglia in the adult SGZ. Under inflammatory conditions, reactivated microglia can have both beneficial and detrimental effects on different aspects of adult neurogenesis, depending on the balance between secreted molecules with pro- and anti-inflammatory action. In one study, the activation of microglia and recruitment of T cells were suggested to be required for enriched environment-induced SGZ neurogenesis, suggesting a possible role in the RMS.
Migration mechanics
Cells in the RMS are believed to move by "chain migration". These neuroblasts are connected by membrane specializations including gap junctions and adherens junctions, moving along each other towards the olfactory bulb through glial tubes. The pathway and mechanisms behind this movement are a ventriculo-olfactory neurogenic system (VONS), a glial framework, and a chemotaxic cell signalling system.
Ventriculo-olfactory neurogenic system (VONS)
The olfactory system is made up in part of the RMS which stretches from the subventricular zone in the wall of the lateral ventricle, through the basal forebrain, to the olfactory bulb (OB). VONS is the name given to this pathway, and it consists of the subventricular zone, the RMS, the olfactory tract and the olfactory bulb. Developing neurons leave the subventricular zone and enter the RMS and travel caudally and ventrally along the undersurface of the caudate nucleus; this is referred to as the descending limb. Upon reaching the ventral side of the caudate nucleus, the neurons follow the rostral limb and travel ventrally and rostrally, entering the anterior olfactory cortex (AOC). The AOC gives rise to the olfactory tract, which ends in the olfactory bulb.
Glial framework
Developing neurons travel toward the olfactory bulb along the RMS via glial tubes, which mark the division between the differentiated nervous tissue and the tissue with embryonic characteristics. Uniquely, the cells travel tangential to the brain surface, parallel to the pial surfaces rather than radially like most developing neurons. Neurons that migrate tangentially are typically believed to migrate independently of radial glia but in the RMS researchers believe this is not the case. Adult rat glial tubes have been observed via light and electron microscopy and described as a meshwork of astrocytic bodies and processes. They have been determined to be astrocytes based on the typical expression of GFAP (glial fibrillary acidic protein) and more specifically as protoplasmic astrocytes based on their morphology. Furthermore, these glial cells were found to be positive for vimentin expression, a protein commonly found in embryonic or immature glial cells. The developing neurons are identified by their expression of the cell surface molecule, a polysialylated (PSA) embryonic form of the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) called PSA-NCAM, as well as Ξ²-tubulin, a protein often found in postmitotic neuroblasts, proving the cells of RMS are committed to developing into neurons and will do so upon entry into the olfactory bulb. With the removal of NCAM, the neuroblasts scatter, proving the importance of NCAM in chain formation. The neurons form both clusters and chains along the lumen of these glial tubes.
Once the developing neurons reach the core of the olfactory bulb, they detach from the RMS, which is initiated by Reelin and tenascin and move radially toward glomeruli, this migration is dependent on tenascin-R, and differentiate into subtypes of interneurons. These neurons have been studied in vivo via electrophysiology and confocal imaging.
Cell signaling
The nature of the molecular cues involved in the correct targeting of the migrating precursors remains a question. The secretion of a chemoattractant factor by the OB appears as a possibility. Chemoattractants and repellants act on the migrating neurons by inducing changes in the growth cone to direct them. Nevertheless, tissue derived from this structure had no directive influence on the migration. On the other hand, a septum-derived secreted factor showed a repulsive effect on the SVZ cells. More recently, it has been shown that the secreted molecule SLIT shows such a repelling effect on SVZ-derived precursors. Furthermore, integrins have been demonstrated to have a regulatory influence on precursor cell chain-migration and regulation of their divisions.
PSA-NCAM appears as another candidate. Mice lacking NCAM show a dramatically size-reduced OB and an accumulation of migrating precursors along the RMS. It is possible that lack of NCAM results in agitation of neuronβglia interactions, and modifications in these interactions might in turn be responsible for the inhibition of migration in the RMS. It has been demonstrated that a cross talk exists between neurons and glial cells and data in favor of an active role of PSAβNCAM in this process has been presented. The lack of PSAβNCAM on the surface of migrating precursors might alter the proliferative properties of this glial cell population, a scenario that appears reminiscent of astrogliosis occurring in neurodegenerative diseases even before any signs of neuronal damage.
Current research
Existence in humans
The presence of an analogous RMS in humans has been difficult to identify, possibly because the olfactory bulb is significantly less developed in humans than in rodents and thus harder to study, and much of the previous scientific work has been called into question concerning the RMS in humans. In the developing fetal brain and in young postnatal infants, chains of immature neurons typical of the RMS were observed. However, there was little evidence for the existence of a migrating chain along the SVZ or olfactory peduncle to the bulb in the adult human brain, even though there was a distinct population of adult neuronal stem cells in the SVZ. These researchers studied subjects from 0 to 84 years of age by analyzing brain sections that had been removed during surgery or during autopsies. They discovered that cells that expressed DCX (doublecortin) and PSA-NCAM are present in the brain sections taken from infants, but have disappeared by 18 months. Yet further studies indicated the presence of a small population of migrating immature neurons, which originate solely from the SVZ. These neuroblasts appear singly or in pairs without forming chains, in contrast to the elongated chains of neuroblasts observed in the rodent RMS. This suggests that the RMS is drastically reduced beyond infancy and especially into adulthood, but is not absent. However, a direct correlation between stem cell quiescence and age has not yet been defined due to a high level of variability between individuals. Thus an RMS analogous structure in the adult human brain remains highly controversial.
Age-related decline
The extent of age-related RMS decline in humans has been the subject of significant debate. The decline of neurogenesis in and migration from the hippocampus in humans has already been well documented. Furthermore, age-related declines in the activities of SVZ stem cells, which migrate to the OB via the RMS, are in place by middle age in rodents. In elderly mice, studies showed that the population of actively dividing SVZ cells and the rate of interneuron replacement in the OB are both drastically reduced, indicating an age-related decline in neuronal proliferation and migration through the RMS. This decline was shown to be due to neuronal stem cell quiescence in the SVZ even by middle age, and not destruction, much like in the hippocampus.
Pharmaceuticals
Another topic in current RMS research pertains to pharmaceuticals. Scientists are still trying to tackle the difficult task of administering drugs into the brain and getting them past the selective bloodβbrain barrier. In a recent study, researchers tested the role of the RMS in βintranasal delivery of drugs into the CNSβ. In this study, the experimenters disrupted the RMS in mice, which obstructed βthe uptake of intranasally administered radioligands into the CNS.β Fluorescent tracers were also used to track the medicine throughout the brain. It was found that the medicine spread to all regions of the brain, including the olfactory bulb. The study concluded that the RMS was extremely prevalent and necessary in the central nervous system in order to deliver drugs intranasally. The study also noted that this research on the RMS is not sufficient, but instead needs to be expanded. Some of the limits and capabilities of the RMS are still unknown, as well as some of the hazards of it. If drugs are to be administered into the CNS through the RMS, all of the details of the RMS must be known in order to ensure safe delivery of the drugs to the brain.
Ξ±6Ξ²1 integrin
A study was conducted testing a specific integrin, alpha-six-beta-one, and the role it plays in the RMS. The study researched the principle that chemoattractive molecules may play an important role in neuroblast migration in the RMS. The study of this one particular integrin was conducted in mice. By using antibodies to bind to Ξ±6Ξ²1 integrin subunits, found on the neuroblasts, the researchers observed that the migration was disrupted. Furthermore, they investigated the mechanism through which Ξ±6Ξ²1 integrin functions and determined it was via the chemoattractant laminin. This was completed by injecting laminin perpendicular to the RMS and observing that doing so drew βneuroblasts away from their normal course of migrationβ. The researchers concluded with the idea that this research could prove useful for therapeutics purposes in that neuroblasts could potentially be drawn to locations of injury or disease.

La Noche de los Bastones Largos ("The Night of the Long Batons") was the violent dislodging of students and teachers from five academic faculties of the University of Buenos Aires (UBA), by the Federal Argentine Police, on July 29, 1966. The academic faculties had been occupied by the students, professors, and graduates (the autonomous government of the university) who opposed the political intervention by the military government of General Juan Carlos OnganΓa to unilaterally revoke the academic freedom established in the 1918 university reform.
Background
On June 28, 1966, a coup led by General Juan Carlos OnganΓa had overthrown elected president Arturo Illia and started the military government known as the RevoluciΓ³n Argentina.
The Argentine public universities were by then organised as dictated by the university reform, which established the autonomy of the university, and a political power divided in a tripartite government of students, professors and graduates.
The repression was particularly violent in the faculties of Exact and Natural Sciences and Philosophy and Literature of the UBA.
The name given to the events refers to the long batons used by the police to hit students, professors and graduates while taking them out of the buildings. 400 people were detained, with laboratories and libraries completely destroyed.
Consequences
In the following months hundreds of professors were fired, resigned their positions or abandoned the country.
In total, 301 university professors emigrated, of whom 215 were scientists, and 166 found their place in other Latin American universities, mainly in Chile and Venezuela. 94 went to universities of United States, Canada and Puerto Rico, and 41 moved to Europe.
In some cases, complete research teams were dismantled, such as the Instituto de CΓ‘lculo de Ciencias Exactas, where the first computer in Latin America was functioning. All of its 70 members resigned and left the country. Similar cases were those of the Instituto de PsicologΓa Evolutiva and the Instituto de RadiaciΓ³n CΓ³smica.
Some of the better known affected professors were:
Sergio BagΓΊ, historian and sociologist, one of the pioneers of the Theory of dependence. Exiled
Manuel Sadosky, pioneer of Computer Science in the country. Exiled
Gregorio Klimovsky, epistemology; one of the most important figures in logical mathematics and philosophy of science in the country.
Pablo Miguel Jacovkis, mathematician, dean of the FCEyN, president of the CONICET (1999~2000).
Rolando GarcΓa, meteorology, worked with Jean Piaget. Exiled.
FΓ©lix GonzΓ‘lez Bonorino, most important geology scientist of the country.
Tulio HalperΓn Donghi, among Latin America's most renowned historians.
Risieri Frondizi, philosopher and ex-dean of the UBA.
Sara Rietti, first nuclear chemist in Argentina.
Juan G. Roederer, astronomer in charge of the Instituto de RadiaciΓ³n CΓ³smica.
Catherine Cesarsky, world-wide known astronomer, since 2006 president of the International Astronomical Union.
Telma Reca, psychologist, director of the Instituto de PsicologΓa Evolutiva, fired.
Mariana Weissmann, physicist, receiver of the L'OrΓ©al-Unesco award 2003, and first woman incorporated to the Academia Argentina de Ciencias Exactas, FΓsicas y Naturales. Exiled
Dismantling of the reformist university
With the intervention of the military government to the universities, a strict censorship was applied to the contents of the programs, and the scientific project of tight relationship between education and investigation in the universities.
The act of the military government is considered a central reference of the cultural and academic decadence, and the brain drain in Argentina.
Recognition and memory
In 2004 film director TristΓ‘n Bauer presented his documentary film La noche de los bastones largos: el futuro intervenido, based in the events of July 29, 1966.
In July 2005 the FederaciΓ³n Universitaria Argentina delivered recognition diplomas to the 70 professors that resigned in 1966 to their positions at the Faculty of Agronomy of the University of Buenos Aires

Persitara Jakarta Utara or just Persitara is an Indonesian football club based in North Jakarta (Utara means North). Currently, Persitara plays in the Liga 3. The club's home base are the Tugu Stadium.
History
The history of the establishment of Persitara itself cannot be separated from the role of Persija Jakarta as the parent of Jakarta football. In the 1970s, Persija, which was still affiliated with the West Java PSSI Regional Commission, initiated the establishment of a separate Regional Commission in Jakarta. The reason is, Persija which is the parent club has difficulty accommodating quite a lot of local clubs.
The formation of the Jakarta Regional Commission coincided with the establishment of other clubs, namely Persijatimut (East-North) and Persijaselbar (South-West). Persijatimut broke up and Persitara officially stood alone under the name of the North Jakarta Indonesian Football Association in 1985.
Persitara Jakarta Utara is a football club in Jakarta. Persitara is an acronym for the North Jakarta Indonesian Football Association. Initially, the club nicknamed Laskar Si Pitung was founded in 1979 using the name Persija East-North and only later in 1985, the club officially used the name "Persitara North Jakarta", which is considered to truly represent the people of North Jakarta.
In the Perserikatan era, Persitara's best performance occurred in the 1985β86 season, when he successfully penetrated the Perserikatan One Division. Similar to other teams from Jakarta, Persitara lives from the support of APBD funds DKI Jakarta. It's just that, since its establishment, Persitara has not received the same disbursement of public funds as its older brother, Persija Jakarta.
The peak was when Sutiyoso held the leadership in DKI Jakarta for two terms. Persitara are not taken into account at all and are only considered as a complementary team. Especially with the emergence of the discourse "Jakarta Satu". That is, only one football team that appears to represent Jakarta. This can be seen from the APBD funds obtained. Persija received APBD funds of around Rp. 22 billion, while Persitara only got Rp. 3 billion.
Never getting the attention of DKI Provincial Government, Persitara's achievements were in free fall, to be in the lowest caste Second Division in the season 2002. From there, the team that has been accepted as a member of PSSI since 1980 has begun to make achievements, until finally being able to penetrate the Superliga, which this time was the second season held.
The most tragic of course is Persijatim East Jakarta, which is a splinter from Persitara. Due to the lack of attention in the capital city, the team was eventually sold to the provincial government of South Sumatra, which later changed its name to Sriwijaya FC.
The dualism that occurred in the Indonesian competition in 2011-2012, between the Indonesia Premier League which is managed by PT Liga Prima Indonesia Sportindo, owned by PSSI and PT Liga Indonesia, the operator of the Indonesia Super League, is increasingly tapering.
The 2010s were a difficult time for Persitara. The dualism of the competition in 2011-2013 with Batavia Union split the club apart. In addition, the acute financial crisis that undermined the Laskar Si Pitung began to show its effects. In the 2014 Premier Division, Persitara was in arrears on player salaries. They couldn't even afford to rent Tugu Stadium so they failed to hold a home game. Persitara were then relegated to Third Division.
The situation is getting chaotic for Persitara. The absence of competent management leaves them adrift in Third Division.

Impassibility (from Latin in-, "not", passibilis, "able to suffer, experience emotion") describes the theological doctrine that God does not experience pain or pleasure from the actions of another being. It has often been seen as a consequence of divine aseity, the idea that God is absolutely independent of any other being, i.e., in no way causally dependent. Being affected (literally made to have a certain emotion, affect) by the state or actions of another would seem to imply causal dependence.
Some theological systems portray God as a being expressive of many (or all) emotions. Other systems, mainly Christianity, Judaism and Islam, portray God as a being that does not experience suffering. However, in Christianity there was an ancient dispute about the impassibility of God (see Nestorianism). Still, it is understood in all Abrahamic religions, including Christianity, that God is "without passions", because God is immutable. So in Christianity, while the created human nature of Christ is mutable and passable, the Godhead is not.
Christianity
Roman Catholic Church
The Catholic Church teaches dogmatically that God is impassible. The divine nature accordingly has no emotions, changes, alterations, height, width, depth, or any other temporal attributes. While Jesus Christ's human nature was complete, and thus Christ possessed a human body, human mind and human soul, and thus human emotions, this human nature was hypostatically united with the timeless, immutable, impassible divine nature, which retained all of its divine attributes without alteration, just as his human nature retained all of its human attributes.
In Catholic doctrine, it would be erroneous and blasphemous to attribute changes or emotional states to God, except by analogy. Thus scriptural expressions which indicate "anger" or "sadness" on God's part are considered anthropomorphisms, mere analogies to explain mankind's relationship to God, who is impassible in his own nature.
Some objecting to this claim assert that if God cannot have emotions, then God cannot love, which is a central tenet of Christianity. However, Catholics would point out that love is not an emotion except in a secondary sense, and is far more than simply a changeable emotion. Furthermore, the human nature of Christ expressed emotional love as well as possessing the timeless, unconditioned "agape" of God.
Main theologians
Theodoret, an early Christian bishop and theologian, wrote, "wild and blasphemous are they who ascribe passion to the divine nature," in his Demonstrations by Syllogism.
Augustinism, one of the chief Christian schools of thought associated most often with Roman Catholicism and Calvinist Protestantism, strongly asserts the impassibility of God, as well as his impeccability. It also defends the notion of acts of God and divine intercession, such as the miracles of the Scriptures.
Martin Luther and especially John Calvin were heavily influenced by Augustine, and their theologies are similar in many respects in regard to divine impassibility.
Generally, scholars do not take anthropomorphic phrases in the Bible like "the finger of God" or "the hand of God" to mean that God literally has a hand or finger. Rather, it is interpreted as an allegory for the Holy Spirit and an expression of God's sovereignty over and intervention into the material world.
Views in scripture
Other Christian views portray a God who does have emotions and emotional reactions to creation, but these emotions should not necessarily be viewed as altogether similar to human emotions. Genesis 1 says that humans were made in God's image, but human emotions, originally a reflection of God's emotional capacity, have been marred by the fall of man.
Human emotions are subject to time, space, and circumstance. God's emotions are always in keeping with God's character as described by the scriptures and in the person of Jesus Christ, according to Christian scholars and the Bible. A few examples are found in Genesis, chapter 8, in the account of the Flood.
God is "grieved" at the pervasive evil of mankind, yet "pleased" with Noah's faithfulness. After the flood, God is "pleased" by Noah's burnt offering. Traditional Christian interpretation understood such depictions of changing emotion in God to be simply an anthropomorphic way of expressing his pleasure or displeasure with human actions. They believed God's eternal will for mankind and love for mankind in Christ does not undergo alteration; God is immutable.
Although there are differing opinions in Christian circles about the impassibility of God, Christian scholars consent that Jesus was completely human and completely God, and so expressed sanctified emotions and was subject to the same physical limitations as humanity, such as hunger or exhaustion. Most Christians traditionally believed these experiences to be proper only to Jesus' human nature.
The New Testament says in Hebrews, "For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we areβyet was without sin." For this reason, God accepted Christ's sacrifice on man's behalf and so is able to offer atonement through Christ.
Gnosticism
Some early adepts of gnosticism held that Jesus did not have a living body and was not able to suffer the Passion. This debate occupied a great deal of early Church Fathers, who took labours to prove that Jesus really did have a human body.
Theopaschism
A rival doctrine is called theopaschism, which highly insists on the suffering of the Lord Jesus at the Passion. However, theopaschism, along with patripassionism, has often been rejected by theologians as a form of modalism.
Judaism
Jews generally hold to the impassibility of God and do not believe that the Messiah is divine or spiritual, but rather that he is political. The belief in divine simplicity is at the heart of Judaism, and the gender of God (i.e., God the Father) is not specified.
Islam
The Islamic religion is based on the notion of the absolute impassibility of God, an impassibility which is only matched by transcendence. Again, Islam does not believe in incarnation, passion, Holy Trinity and resurrection and God the Father because it is seen as an attack on divine impassibility.
Although love and mercy are attributed to God, it is emphasised that God is completely dissimilar to created things. Al-Raheem, the Merciful, is one of the primary names of God in Islam, but meant in terms of God being beneficent towards creation rather than in terms of softening of the heart. The latter implies a psychological change, and contradicts God's absolute transcendence.
Greek mythology
Many polytheistic traditions portray their gods as feeling a wide range of emotions. For example, Zeus is famous for his lustfulness, Susano-o for his intemperance, and Balder for his joyousness and calm. Impassibility in the Western tradition traces back to ancient Greek philosophers like Aristotle and Plato, who first proposed the idea of God as a perfect, omniscient, timeless, and unchanging being not subject to human emotion (which represents change and imperfection). The concept of impassibility was developed by medieval theologians like Anselm and continues to be in tension with more emotional concepts of God.

Thaddeus of Warsaw is an 1803 novel written by Jane Porter and originally published in four volumes. The novel concerns Thaddeus Sobieski, a gallant young soldier who serves in the KoΕciuszko Uprising against invading Russian forces. After Polandβs defeat, Thaddeus departs for London in search of his English father. The novel was a popular success, remaining in print throughout the nineteenth century.
The work is a hybrid: the first third relates developments and battles within Poland, the remainder of the book serves as a novel of manners describing how Thaddeus, having befriended a British soldier in the Russian army and learned from his mother that he himself is half English, flees to London to begin a new life. He sells art, falls in love, and finds (and restores the honor of) his long-lost father. The story was supposedly derived from Porter's eyewitness accounts of British soldiers and Polish refugees fleeing the failed revolts after the foreign occupation of Poland-Lithuania in the 1790s. Porter wrote that her goal was "to exhibit so truly heroic and enduring a portrait of what every Christian man ought to be"; she felt obliged to look at the past and to Poland because such people were "extinct" within Britain in her time. Written during a lull in the Napoleonic Wars, Thaddeus of Warsaw includes numerous speeches and scenes arguing for a spirited defense of constitutional government against absolutism and criticizes the perceived dilettantism of the English aristocracy.
Thaddeus of Warsaw went through at least 84 editions, including translations into French and German. The German edition was praised by Tadeusz KoΕciuszko, the inspiration for the "Thaddeus" of the title and a hero of the American Revolution, and earned Porter a ladyship from the King of WΓΌrttemberg. The book was responsible for the name of Warsaw, North Carolina (founded ). The character of Thaddeus Sobieski was the namesake of Thaddeus Lowe (b.β1832), the father of aerial reconnaissance in the United States, and Pembroke Somerset was the namesake of Pembroke, Kentucky (est.β1836). Porter came to be so disregarded that the editor of an 1897 edition of Porter's diary took it for granted that her readers would not have heard of her and a 1905 edition of Thaddeus was published as part of a series on Half-Forgotten Books.
It was thought by Olga S. Phillips (1940), author of Isaac Nathan's biography, that the character of Thaddeus was based on Nathan's father Menachem Mona Polack (Moses Monash the Pole) who was thought to be the illegitimate son of King StanisΕaw August Poniatowski and his Jewish mistress ElΕΌbieta SzydΕowska. Phillips claims that Jane Porter used to call Isaac Nathan 'Thaddeus' when touching his face as a child.
Despite the work's success, Porter was described as "totally destitute or nearly so", was obliged to circulate among her friends as a houseguest, and repeatedly petitioned the government for a literary pension (denied in part because she was unable to gather the support of other important literary figures). This penury arose because the rights to Thaddeus and her other stories were after protracted litigation no longer held by Porter but belonged to her various publishers, including Owen Rees, Richard Bentley, and George Virtue. Issuing "improved" and "corrected" versions with prefaces and other errata permitted her to keep some income from works.

The Scipion Nasice Sisters Theatre () was founded on 13 October 1983 in Ljubljana by Eda Δufer, Dragan Ε½ivadinov and Miran Mohar, three Slovenian students.
The founders also wrote a manifesto ("The Sister Letter"), setting this theatre group a time frame of operationβfour yearsβand described its stages from formation to self-destruction. The name refers to Publius Cornelius Scipio Nasica Corculum, a Roman Republican politician who passed a decree in 151 BC ordering the destruction of the first Roman theatre.
The Scipion Nasice Sisters Theatre (1983β1987) constitutedβalong with Laibach and IRWIN groupsβone of the three pillars of the Neue Slowenische Kunst retrograde movement. Within the retrograde movement, theatre research engaged in the relation between religion, art and state. It focused on rituals and the function of spectacle in theatre and in the function of spectacle the state.
The retrograde production of events, as it was announced in the manifesto (The Sister Letter), incorporated an external manifestative part (actions) and an internal creative part (operations). The external part consisted of The Appearance (1983), The Resurrection (1984) and The Self-Destruction (1987); the internal part consisted of three stages of transformation: The Illegality (1984), The Exorcism (1985) and The Retro-Classic (1986).
In 1987, the Scipion Nasice Sisters Theatre performed self-destruction.

John Graham, 3rd Earl of Montrose (1548 β 9 November 1608) was a Scottish peer and Chancellor of the University of St Andrews from 1599 to 1604. He was Lord High Commissioner to the Parliament of Scotland, from 1605 to 1606.
Family background
He was the son of Robert Graham, Master of Graham, and Margaret Fleming, a daughter of Malcolm Fleming, 3rd Lord Fleming. He father was killed at the Battle of Pinkie Cleugh on 10 September 1547.
His maternal grandmother, Janet Fleming was a daughter of James IV of Scotland.
Career
A contemporary provided the following summary:He is an Erle of small power, havinge but few gentlemen of his surname except the Larde of Fyntra situate in the Leuenax and dwellinge in the north. His revenues are not greate, yet being a man civil and gyven to quyet he hath matched with the houses of E[rskine].
In July 1584 Montrose was at court at Falkland Palace and wrote to the lawyer Patrick Vaus of Barnbarroch asking him to help in the legal case of his friend Patrick Montcur of Montcur.
The English politician Sir Robert Cecil noted that Montrose was a supporter of the Earl of Huntly in the "slaughter of Moray".
The Graham family had a feud with Sir John Sandilands, who was the legal tutor of Sandilands of Calder. John Sandilands fought with the Master of Montrose on two occasions. James VI made Sandilands and Montrose agree in November 1599.
Montrose was made Chancellor of Scotland in 1599. Soon after when he was at Holyrood Palace speaking with Anne of Denmark in her chamber, they were interrupted by James Forman, an Edinburgh burgess, who complained about various policies and a tax on wine and criticised the comptroller David Murray and the king. Around the same time, the chancellor's clothes and some silver were stolen from his house and sold on.
Anne of Denmark at Stirling
After James VI had gone to England in 1603 at the Union of the Crowns, Montrose wrote to him on 10 May and 13 May about Anne of Denmark. She had gone to Stirling Castle to collect her son Prince Henry without authority. During discussions at the castle she had a miscarriage. Montrose was anxious to defuse a continuing political quarrel. He explained that the companions of the queen at Stirling had not set out to take the Prince from the custody of the Earl of Mar. Although Mar claimed they were "movers and enticers of her highness to that enterprise, they themselves by oaths protest, that they had no intention at all, except her grace's convoy, being required by her missives thereto".
Montrose wrote to James VI again on 1 June, when Anne of Denmark was in Edinburgh with Prince Henry and Princess Elizabeth. Montrose arranged and paid for the accommodation in John Kinloch's house in the Canongate for some of the English ladies who had come to meet Anne of Denmark. The party included Lucy Russell, Countess of Bedford.
Marriage and children
Montrose married Jean Drummond, a daughter of David, Lord Drummond and Lilias Ruthven. Their children included:
John Graham, 4th Earl of Montrose
William Graham of Braco, who married (1) Mary Keith, daughter of William Keith, Master of Marischal, and (2) Mary Cunningham, daughter of Sir James Edmonstone of Duntreath, and widow of John Cunningham of Cunninghamhead
Robert Graham of Scotston, who married Anne Lindsay, daughter of Alexander Lindsay, 1st Lord Spynie and Jean Lyon, a daughter of John Lyon, 8th Lord Glamis
Lilias Graham, who married John Fleming, 1st Earl of Wigtown

Toad (Mortimer Toynbee) is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. Created by writer Stan Lee and artist/co-writer Jack Kirby, he first appeared in The X-Men #4 (March 1964).
Toad is most often depicted as an enemy of the X-Men and was originally a hunchbacked mutant with superhuman leaping ability. He was Magneto's sniveling servant (or "toady") in the 1960s line-up of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. He later became the leader of his own faction of the Brotherhood, which focused more on criminal activities than mutant liberation.
Since his inception, the character has appeared in numerous media adaptations, such as television series, films, and video games. For example, Ray Park played a significantly different version of Toad in 2000's X-Men film, and after that, aspects of this Toad have since been implemented into the comic book version. Subsequently, most versions of Toad written or drawn after 2000 resemble the Ray Park version more closely than the original Toad. A younger Toad appeared in the film X-Men: Days of Future Past, played by Evan Jonigkeit.
Publication history
Created by writer Stan Lee and artist/co-writer Jack Kirby, he first appeared in X-Men #4 (March 1964).
Fictional character biography
Lackey
Mortimer Toynbee was born in York, England, and was soon after abandoned by his parents and spent many years in an orphanage, where he was constantly tormented by other children due to his ugliness and strangely shaped body (as his mutant appearance was present from birth). He was considered to be mentally inferior due to his extreme shyness and mild learning disabilities during his primary school years, though he was actually quite intelligent. He dropped out at an extremely early age and decided to fend for himself. Based on years of abuse and knowing full well he was a freak, Mortimer developed a severe inferiority complex, becoming servile to anyone that showed him the slightest bit of affection.
Later, he was recruited into Magneto's original Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, becoming Magneto's sycophantic "toady." Toad believed that Magneto loved him, while Magneto considered this henchman little more than a human shield and a useful lackey. Toad also developed a crush on his teammate Scarlet Witch, but she did not return his feelings as she was repulsed by his appearance, mannerisms, obsequiousness, and lack of hygiene.
As a member of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, Toad aided Magneto in repeated clashes with the X-Men. Magneto tried to use him to infiltrate the X-Men, but they recognized his power and unmasked him. At one point, Magneto and Toad were captured by the alien Stranger as part of his collection, encased in cocoons, and taken on a journey through space. Magneto managed to escape by repairing a spaceship but left Toad behind. When Magneto was re-captured by the Stranger, with whom Professor Xavier had telepathically communicated, he took Toad with him during his second escape, but by then Toad's attitude towards his master had already begun to change. Toad aided Magneto against the X-Men once more, but realized that Magneto did not care at all for him, as a result, Toad rebelled against Magneto, and fled his lair with Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch.
However, he was soon captured by Sentinels and then freed by the X-Men. He was later captured with Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch.
Solo career
Sometime later, Toad began to study the Stranger's technology, becoming familiar with it. He used the Stranger's alien technology to menace the Avengers. He even attempted to kill the Angel in a castle outfitted with traps by Arcade. However, he instead turned the castle into an amusement park and became its caretaker. Toad was eventually ejected from the castle by Doctor Doom, and he became suicidal, realizing that he was too dependent on others to work alone. He met and was befriended by Spider-Man, and teamed with Spider-Kid and Frog-Man as the superhero adventurer team, the Misfits. However, Toad suffered from constant depression.
Eventually, Toad left the Misfits and returned to villainy. He sought repeatedly to abduct the Scarlet Witch, but was thwarted by Quicksilver, the Vision and the Scarlet Witch. Much later, he played a "game" with Gideon and sought to enlist Proteus in a new Brotherhood. He then formed his own subversive version of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, along with Blob, Pyro and Phantazia. He transformed Karl Lykos back into Sauron and, with the Brotherhood, battled X-Force. Toad's Brotherhood also battled X-Factor and then fought Darkhawk, Sleepwalker and Portal.
X-Men: Forever
Years later, still struggling with depression, Toad was captured by Prosh, along with Juggernaut, Iceman, Jean Grey and Mystique as part of a time-hopping plan to stop a global threat. Toad learned that his deformed body was the result of experimentation by Juggernaut's father, Kurt Marko, at Alamogordo, New Mexico, which left Toad with an unstable genetic structure. The Stranger's equipment corrected his genetic flaws, resulting in an almost complete metamorphosis: Toad had a taller and slimmer appearance and had his powers augmented. Among the most notable changes was a prehensile tongue. Though his change improved his self-esteem, Toad continued to live life without direction. He joined several more incarnations of the Brotherhood of Mutants, none of which lasted for long.
Bloodsport tournament
Not long after, Toad entered the Madripoor Bloodsport Tournament. In his first fight in the tournament, Toad wrapped his extremely long tongue around the villain known as Eel, crushing his opponent's bones and seemingly killing him instantly. In the next fight, however, Toad battled Wolverine. His new abilities caught the X-Man off guard, and he managed to deal some damage. However, his overconfidence led to his defeat. Wolverine spared his life, not wanting to partake in the act of cold-blooded murder.
New X-Men
Toad made a brief reappearance on Genosha sometime after the island's annihilation, leading a team including Paralyzer and Unus to try to rebuild the statue of Magneto as a monument to him.
For reasons unknown, Toad eventually returns to Magneto's side during the Planet X storyline; however, Toad was not as docile and subservient as he had been in the past, even openly questioning Magneto at times. Magneto, in turn, is tyrannical in his treatment of Toad, who had become his second-in-command. At that point, the long-presumed-dead Magneto's image had taken a Che Guevara-like the notoriety, and Toad questioned whether Magneto may have been more powerful dead than alive. Nonetheless, Toad tries to defend his former master, only to be incapacitated by Fantomex, who shoots his kneecaps out. Shortly thereafter, Magneto is killed by Wolverine, and Toad vanishes from the scene.
It is later revealed that this was not the real Magneto, but a copycat named Xorn. It is unknown whether Toad was aware of this. It is revealed that the real Magneto is still alive. So far, Toad has made no known attempts to rejoin him. Unus' gang has come into conflict with Xavier and his allies, who have gained a foothold on Genoshan soil.
Civil War
Toad was among the group of mutants who broke out of the 198 camps, with help from Caliban, Domino, and Shatterstar. The group hid in what they believed was an abandoned nuclear bunker in the Nevada desert. While the X-Men and O*N*E battled outside the bunker, Johnny Dee was instructed by General Lazer to cause chaos amongst the 198. The group of mutants discovered this as Outlaw, being controlled by Johnny, pointed her gun at Domino. Domino's powers caused a misfire, giving Toad a chance to bring Outlaw down.
It was then revealed that the bunker was actually a blast-containment chamber for experimental weapons. As the auto-destruct sequence was initiated, Toad was trapped inside the chamber with the rest of the 198. The X-Men, teaming up with Bishop, Iron Man and Ms. Marvel, quickly found a way to rescue the trapped mutants and the 198 walked away unharmed.
Dark Reign
Toad has later seen rioting in San Francisco, angry about the fact that mutants have been forbidden to mate with each other to prevent new mutant births. Toad is faced by Cyclops and defeated. He is later seen being carried by Trance and Dragoness, who are being pursued by H.A.M.M.E.R. agents. After the battle is over, Toad is seen together with Dragoness and Avalanche living on the X-Men's new Utopia Homebase.
Second Coming
After Cyclops deputizes the population of Utopia to help fight an invasion of Nimrod Sentinels from an unknown future, Toad instructs a group of mutants, including Sack, to remain behind on the island, where they would be safe. In the middle of arguing with Sack, a Nimrod Sentinel fires on them, decapitating Sack and blowing off Toad's right index finger.
Regenesis
After the fight between Cyclops and Wolverine, the X-Men were divided between Utopia and Westchester. Toad decided to go to Westchester with Wolverine who accepts him as the school's janitor.
In the miniseries "Magneto: Not a Hero", Joseph is resurrected under unknown circumstances and forms a new Brotherhood of Mutants with Astra and mutated deformed versions of Blob, Mastermind, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch, and Toad. It is soon revealed that the mutated versions of Blob, Mastermind, Quicksilver, Scarlet Witch and Toad are clones created by Joseph.
During the "Secret Empire" storyline, Toad became a member of New Tian's strike force following Hydra taking over the United States. He gained a secondary mutation where he can light his tongue on fire.
During the "Hunted" storyline, Toad was among the animal-themed superhumans captured by Taskmaster and Black Ant for Kraven the Hunter's Great Hunt sponsored by Arcade's company Arcade Industries. After most of the animal-themed superheroes regrouped, Toad mentioned that Man-Bull was killed amidst the chaos caused by the Hunter-Bots. Toad later assisted the animal-themed characters in fighting the Hunter-Bots. When Yellowjacket finds Black Ant hiding in the bush, Toad joins Yellowjacket, Human Fly, Razorback, and White Rabbit in preparing to take revenge on him only for Taskmaster to appear and make off with Black Ant.
In the very first issue of "House of X", when Professor X and Magneto founded a mutant-exclusive island nation on Krakoa. Toad was sent on a special mission with Mystique and Sabretooth to steal information about the Orchis Forge from Damage Control. Due to his hacking skills, they were successful and escaped, leaving Sabretooth behind to fight the Fantastic Four.
During "X-Men: The Trial of Magneto" the Scarlet Witch coaxed Magneto to strangle her to death with Uru as a part of her plan to resurrect fallen mutants whose minds were not backed up by Cerebro. The resurrected Scarlet Witch implicated Toad for her death as the Uru used for the murder was later found in his home. Pleading guilty to the murder charge, possibly as a favor to Magneto, he stated that he had killed her for turning her back on the Brotherhood and Magneto. Earning him banishment to the Pit of Exile, he claimed that he did it all for Magneto. Although the Scarlet Witch tried to advocate on the Toad's behalf, her words could not save him from his fate.
He was eventually freed by Cypher along with all the other Pit inmates on the condition that they leave Krakoa and hunt down the recently escaped Sabretooth so he can be punished for his crimes.
Throughout "Sabretooth and the Exiles", Toad joins the other exiled mutants on a journey to find Sabretooth that leads to him joining them as they infiltrate a series of Orchis' Mutant prisons and experimentation centers. Throughout most of this Toad keeps his head down and does not speak to anyone unless he has too but when they ended up in Station Three, which was somehow built inside the Astral Plane, Victor and Toad got into a fight about their mission to the Orchis Forge that led to him being put in the pit. When Toad tells him it was his own fault, Victor attacks him, they fight using special powers they have in the Astral Plane. Oya cuts them off because she discovered, someone trapped inside some kind of organic prison. Sabretooth and Toad fled, assuming the person to be hostile, but later Oya approached everyone and showed them that the prisoner was a second Victor Creed. The team escapes with the freed Orchis prisoners on their boat which Maddison used debris from the destroyed base to turn into a vessel big enough to contain them all. Sabretooth decides to enact one last plan for revenge against the Quiet Council by turning all the young mutant prisoners against Krakoa, he is interrupted when the team arrive at the final, underwater Orchis base and are hit by a tidal wave. During the commotion Sabretooth is again abducted by Orchis, telling his team to come looking for him before disappearing. The rest of the team, alongside Dr. Barrington and her creation are trapped in the base with the kids who instinctively attack them out of fear that they are there to perform more experiments. After Nanny shuts down the brains of everyone except herself and Orphan-Maker, the team all wake up on the ship except Nanny and Orphan-Maker, Dr. Barrington and her creation, and Sabretooth who all left to pursue their own goals. Nanny and Orphan-Maker take all the mutant babies with them.
Relationship with Husk
During the events of "Avengers vs. X-Men," Toad and Husk have developed a sentimental relationship. The relationship led to him quitting the Grey Academy to join her at the Hellfire Academy where she had become a teacher, but he soon finds he is relegated once again to being a janitor and sees Husk being twisted and corrupted by the Academy, quickly regretting that he joined.
In the Hellfire Academy, he found himself disillusioned with their attempts to teach the children how to be villains, feeling they should actually try educating them and tell them how unfortunate the life of a villain could be, which ended up with Husk shoving him out of the room and claiming he had embarrassed her. When he witnessed Quentin Quire - whom he had brought to the Hellfire Academy along with him - being tortured by Sauron, he finally took action and turned on the Hellfire Academy choosing to help Quentin escape. As they were escaping, they are attacked by Husk and the All-New Hellions. Husk's increasingly slipping sanity causes her to attempt to kill Toad during the fight. Despite his reluctance to hurt her, Toad begins to rip off layers of her flesh until she is left in her human form, confused about where she is and why she is not still in the Grey Academy, having apparently lost most of her memory. The Hellfire Academy is defeated, Kade Kilgore is trapped inside the Siege Perilous, and Wilhemina Kensington manages to escape, but Manuel Enduque and Maximilian Frankenstein are forced to enroll in the Jean Grey Academy. Toad is seen sitting beside Husk's hospital bed.
Later, it transpires Husk's unhinged personality was caused by a secondary mutation that caused her powers to affect her mind along with her body. Due to his earlier betrayal, Toad is fired by Wolverine as the janitor of the Grey Academy. As he leaves the school, Husk arrives to apologize to him. Toad accepts her apology and tells her he always knew things between them were too good to last. Before he can go, Husk asks him to visit her in a nearby coffee shop so she can try to get to know him and remember what she liked about him before she lost her memory. But Frankenstein creates self-replicating energy robots to attack the city and distract the staff so he and Enduque can escape the Grey Academy. Toad tracks them down and tells them how he was given a second chance and intends to take it. Frankenstein tells him to show him to prove his commitment, Toad does this by attacking and hospitalizing Enduque. Husk sits alone in the destroyed coffee shop and Toad never shows up, later she gives Enduque counselling and finds Toad left her a message saying he had to leave or else someday she would wake up and see him for what he really was. Toad is seen crying silently as he now works for Maximilian Frankenstein and recommends, they go someplace nobody can hurt them.
Powers and abilities
The Toad's intellect and physical abilities have gone through some changes over the years. In the character's inception, he possessed superhuman leg strength, endurance, agility, reflexes, coordination, and balance, as well as a superhuman ability to leap great distances. However, over the years, the Toad's original powers have increased, and he has gained additional powers through further mutation, including adhesive saliva, the ability to stick to and climb walls, and an elongated prehensile tongue.. As a result of further mutation, he now has mottled green skin and pointed-tip ears.
Toad's primary mutant ability is a superhuman leaping ability that allows him to leap many times higher and farther than an ordinary human. He possesses some degree of superhuman strength and endurance, primarily concentrated in his lower torso and legs, which grants him his superior leaping abilities. His vertebral column and skeletal structure are unusually flexible, enabling him to remain in a constant crouching position and contort his body into unusual position without injury or strain. In his first appearances, Toad had very little knowledge of hand-to-hand combat, fighting mainly by kicking wildly and by leaping about and attempting to land on his opponents (as Toad once weighed over 250Β lbs. this could be potentially harmful). Recently, he has demonstrated a better sense of combat and a leaner physique, using both his leaping ability and his elongated prehensile tongue to his advantage.
As a result of having his genetic structure restored (thus stabilizing and augmenting his mutation) Toad has the ability to extend his elastic tongue up to 25 feet in length to ensnare objects and people. His tongue is superhumanly strong and tough to the extent that he once killed a magistrate of Genosha by ensnaring him within his tongue and squeezing, causing the magistrate to be crushed to death almost immediately. He can also secrete odorless pheremonous venom and psychoactive chemicals from his tongue and fingertips that allow him to influence, manipulate, and control the minds of others to a limited extent. Thanks to special pads on his hands and feet, Toad can stick to and climb most surfaces with ease, even if they are vertical, inverted, or slick. He can also secrete a highly adhesive resin from his pores that paralyzes the nervous system of anybody that touches it. Toad has also demonstrated the ability to psionically communicate with amphibian life (which he often uses as spies), and to expel powerful gusts of wind from his lungs capable of knocking someone down.
Toad's intellect has increased beyond his original levels, and he has considerable knowledge of advanced technology and access to vast technological and scientific knowledge, which he gained as a lackey to Magneto and while he was held captive by the Stranger, as well as his studies of machinery in the possession of Arcade and Arkon. He once possessed alien technology that he stole from the Stranger's world, and could utilize it to create synthezoid robots, among other uses. He has demonstrated the ability to apply this advanced technology but lacks the creativity to make progress beyond his existing knowledge. For example, while he could construct and utilize a powerful exoskeletal armor, he would be unable to improve on its base design.
Although Toad's amphibian-like traits extend to his physical appearance, this was revealed to be contingent upon his mutation during the events in which the High Evolutionary deprived the world's mutant population of their extraordinary abilities. Following the events, Toad was revealed to be an extremely handsome young man. This is as he would look had he not been born a mutant.
Toad later gained a secondary mutation where he can light his tongue on fire.
Other versions
1602
Toad appears in the Marvel 1602 series working as a spy for Enrique (Magneto) in the Vatican. As Enrique's plot was to recruit the "witchbreed" who could conceal their abilities in the unfriendly world, it is unclear why Toad was included, as he is shown with a long tongue constantly coming out of his mouth. He also has the ability to move around on walls and ceilings. When his deception is discovered by the Papacy, he betrays Enrique and his allies in exchange for his life. However, when Enrique's group breaks free, they capture Toad. Enrique promises to kill him, but his death is at least delayed, as he is seen alive on the ship later, though he doesn't appear in the climax.
Age of Apocalypse
In the Age of Apocalypse, Toad was a member of Forge's resistance group, the Outcasts. This version of Toad was a highly articulate Shakespearean actor, and a master swordsman. When the Outcasts were attacked by Domino, Toad killed her henchman Caliban but dies immediately afterward at the hands of Grizzly.
Marvel Noir
Toad (Mortimer Toynbee) is a mutant partner of homicide detective Fred Dukes in X-Men Noir.
House of M
When a mentally unstable Scarlet Witch warped reality into the mutant-dominant House of M, Toad appeared as a member of Wolverine's Red Guard, and wrote a best-selling book about his time in Magneto's service. When his real memories were restored, he agreed to help the heroes in changing the reality back to normal.
Marvel Zombies
During Marvel Zombies, Toad is seen as a zombie, along with several other members of the zombie Freedom Force chasing after the still living Blob. They succeed, as he is seen as a zombie in Dead Days.
Powerless
In the limited series Powerless where the characters of the Marvel Universe are ordinary humans, Toad, referred to simply as Mortimer or Mort, appears as member of the shadowy organization headed by Erik Lensherr. He briefly aids Victor Creed as they search for Weapon X, but they are attacked by their target and their car runs off the road. Mortimer's fate is unseen, but Creed assumes Weapon X kills him. He does not appear again.
Ronin
In the limited series X-Men Ronin, Toad is an elderly teacher that several of the X-Men turn to for help when the entire Prefecture are made to believe they are monsters. Toad works to help heal Wolverine, who had been laid low by a telepathic blast.
Earth X
In the Earth X reality, Toad gains Magneto's powers and rules over Sentinel City, humiliating Magneto as payback.
Ultimate Marvel
In the Ultimate Marvel continuity, Toad was a founding member of the Brotherhood of Mutants. In this version, he is not the sycophantic Toad from the mainstream universe, but rather is ruthless and vicious. This Toad is also British like the mainstream version but has four fingers, green skin and can walk on walls and ceilings like Spider-Man. He became good friends with Ultimate Cyclops, when they were in the Brotherhood together. This friendship carried on even after Cyclops returned to the X-Men.
After the supposed death of Professor Xavier and the consequent passing of control of the school to Cyclops and Jean Grey, Toad works as an instructor at the school, something with which Jean feels mildly uncomfortable. Cyclops asks Toad to visit the Morlocks and tell them of the new school regime that he is trying to create. Sunder, the Morlock leader had taken in Nightcrawler and believes the two to be working against him. Toad and Nightcrawler are then taken captive and then freed by Cyclops, Jean, Rogue, and Iceman.
After the Apocalypse debacle, Professor X returns to the institute. The world outside has returned to how it was before Apocalypse appeared, but the mansion has both Cyclops' group who remained behind and Bishop's team of New X-Men together as a much larger team. Toad officially joins the team and, like Iceman, wears a bandana with the "X" symbol on it.
Toad is then rarely seen in the Ultimate X-Men comic following this and is not even shown during the "Banshee Drug" storyline where Colossus makes an X-Men team of drug-enhanced X-Men to fight Xavier's X-Men. He is a part of Xavier's X-Men during the storyline but is not shown. The Ultimatum Wave then hits New York, prompting William Stryker to attack the X-Men mansion with his soldiers. Toad is killed defending Firestar in the resulting massacre.
Ultimate Toad's personality and appearance are more snarky British punk than subservient yes-man, and he has been shown as a relatively competent fighter in his few appearances. In the first story arc ("The Tomorrow People"), Toad successfully disables both Cyclops and Storm by leaping on them, but is defeated by Iceman, who freezes his legs. Storm then strikes him with a kick across the face.

FΓ©lix Biet (1838 in Langres, Haute-Marne β 1901 in Saint-Cyr-au-Mont-d'Or) was a French missionary from Paris Foreign Missions Society and naturalist.
Life
Biet was born in 1838. He was ordained as a priest in 1864. He was next sent to Tatsienlu in Tibet (called Dartsedo by Tibetans) as a missionary and he became the Bishop of the Apostolic Vicariate of Thibet, now Diocese of Kangding, in 1898. FΓ©lix Biet collected butterflies for Charles OberthΓΌr who dedicated three new species (Thecla bieti, Pantoporia bieti and Anthocharis bieti) to him. Alphonse Milne-Edwards described the Chinese mountain cat (Felis bieti) and the black snub-nosed monkey, (Rhinopithecus bieti), the latter collected and sent by Jean-AndrΓ© SouliΓ©. The Biet's laughingthrush a Chinese endemic species was another discovery, named by Γmile Oustalet in 1897. Those natural history collections from Tibet and China are in the National Museum of Natural History in Paris.
He was succeeded by Pierre-Philippe Giraudeau.

Commander Nigel David "Sharkey" MacCartan-Ward, (born 1943), born Nigel David Ward, is a retired British Royal Navy officer who introduced the Sea Harrier Fighter, Reconnaissance, Strike aircraft to service and commanded 801 Naval Air Squadron during the Falklands War. He was known as Mr. Sea Harrier.
Early life
Nigel David Ward was born on 22 September 1943 in Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada where his RAF father was serving. (He changed his surname by deed poll in the early 90s to MacCartan-Ward after his fatherβs death and in honor of the latterβs Irish ancestry.) He traveled to the UK in 1944 with his mother and elder brother - a five-week journey by sea, avoiding the U-boat threat. He was stricken with bronchiectasis and hospitalized for a year at the age of 5, and only survived the disease by spending 3 years in the dry climate of Pakistan at RAF Mauripur, Karachi. After a return to England, he was educated as a boarder at Reading School, Berkshire (1954-1962) where he became Head Boy and Captain of the 1st XV Rugby Team (and also a South of England Rugby Trialist.) He learned to fly with an RAF Flying Scholarship in 1959, earning his Private Pilotβs Licence in the Tiger Moth.
Military career
After basic flying training he completed his training with the Fleet Air Arm on the Hawker Hunter and Sea Vixen. He then joined 892 Naval Air Squadron and flew the F-4K Phantom from the deck of , where he qualified as an Air Warfare Instructor and an Instrument Training Instructor. He then worked as a nuclear planning officer at NATO Allied Forces Northern Europe. In 1974 he returned to 892 Phantom Squadron on HMS Ark Royal as the Senior Pilot before becoming the Sea Harrier Desk Officer in the Ministry of Defence. In 1979, he took command of the Sea Harrier FRS.1 Intensive Flying Trials Unit at 700 Naval Air Squadron. Ward featured in an episode of Pebble Mill at One that year when he landed a Sea Harrier in a sports field next to the Pebble Mill Studios.
Royal Navy Career - as a Seaman Career Officer
In 1962, he entered Britannia Royal Naval College as a Naval Cadet on the General List.
In 1963-64, he served as a Midshipman in the Bahamas Patrol frigate, HMS Tartar before returning to the College as a Sub-Lieutenant. He was put in charge of the Dartmouth Tiger Moth Flying Club and appointed Divisional Sub-Lieutenant of Exmouth Division. On leaving Dartmouth, the Commander of the College, John Ford, commented that βNever has a Division been run so well from a horizontal position!β
In 1965-66, as a Lieutenant, he was appointed Navigator of the Hong Kong Guardships, HMS Penston and Woolaston. During this period, he achieved his Bridge Watch Keeping and Ocean Navigation Certificates and qualified as a Shipβs Diver.
Royal Navy Career - Flying Training
Sharkeyβs military flying training began in 1966 and continued until 1969. When passing out from Basic Flying Training, flying the Jet Provost at RAF Linton-on-Ouse, he won the Aerobatics Trophy and the Lord Mayorβs Sash for Best Student. His Advanced and Tactical Flying Training took place at Royal Naval Air Station Brawdy in South Wales where he flew the Hunter fast jet aircraft. His follow-on Operational Flying Training took place at Royal Naval Air Station Yeovilton in Somerset where he flew the frontline fighter aircraft, the Sea Vixen Mk.2 and where he was awarded the Kelly Memorial Trophy and Admiral Sir Dudley Pound Prize for Best Operational Student. He was then appointed to the Phantom Training Squadron, 767 NAS and to 892 frontline Phantom F-4K Squadron in continuation.
Royal Navy Career - in the Frontline with the Fleet Air Arm
Sharkey carried out his first deck-landing in HMS Ark Royal IV on 14 June 1970. He qualified as an All-Weather Fighter Pilot by Day and Night. He then qualified as an Instrument Rating Instructor in 1971 and an Air Warfare Instructor in 1972.
From 1972 to 1974, he carried out a NATO Aviation Staff job as Nuclear Intelligence and Planning Officer at Allied Forces Northern Europe (AFNORTH), Oslo, Norway under the command of General Sir Peter Whitely, Royal Marines. Whilst there, he drafted: the Mine Warfare Policy for AFNORTH; the Plans for the nuclear destruction of the Soviet Amphibious Fleet; and helped draft a new βGraduated Responseβ Nuclear Policy for the Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR) to replace the existing βTripwireβ Policy, which was accepted.
On return to the UK, he was appointed as the Senior Pilot of 892 Squadron and strove successfully to enhance the night deck landing and air-to-air combat confidence and capability of all his 14 pilots (including himself).
His 2nd embarked frontline tour ended in 1976 when he was appointed to serve in the Ministry of Defence as the Officer in charge of the Sea Harrier FRS Mk 1, the P3T Sea Eagle Sea-Skimming Missile and the AIM-120B AMRAAM Projects. By 1979, the Sea Harrier was ready to enter service, on cost and on time. He was then appointed to be the Commanding Officer of the Sea Harrier Intensive Flying Trials Unit, 700A Squadron, was ordered to write his own Terms of Reference and, with an excellent team of aviators and engineers, was relied upon entirely to prepare the aircraft and all its personnel for full operational readiness. In 1980, he was appointed to Command the Headquarters Squadron, 899, in continuation and, in 1981, was given Command of 801 frontline Squadron based in HMS Invincible and was promoted to Commander (by which time he had become well known as βMister Sea Harrierβ).
Falklands War
During Operation Corporate, the Falklands War, he was Senior Sea Harrier advisor to the Command on all aspects of the fast jet air-to-air war.
From commanding 700A Trials Squadron through to 801 Squadron, Ward had prepared the Sea Harrier world well for action in the South Atlantic. Two additional aircraft and pilots were borrowed from the conversion unit, 899 Naval Air Squadron, and with a strength of eight aircraft and eleven pilots they embarked in HMS Invincible on 3 April 1982.
21 May 1982
Ward, flying Sea Harrier XZ451/006, was leading a division of three aircraft launched to carry out combat air patrol over the Falkland Sound, southwest of San Carlos Water. Two Pucara ground-attack aircraft operating from Goose Green at low level were detected by the air defence controller in HMS Brilliant. The three Sea Harriers were in the climb en route Invincible when they were vectored towards the Pucaras. One of the Pucaras was attacked from abeam by the two Sea Harriers flown by Steve Thomas and Alisdair Craig but evaded being hit. Simultaneously, Ward attacked Major Carlos Tomba's aircraft from behind with his ADEN cannon, setting the starboard engine on fire and damaging the port aileron. He immediately re-attacked hitting the fuselage and port engine. In his third and final run flying as low as 10 feet above the ground, he destroyed the cockpit canopy and upper fuselage. Tomba ejected from the Pucara at very low-level before the aircraft crashed north-west of Drone Hill. Tomba was unhurt and walked back to Goose Green.
Later that same day Ward, in Sea Harrier ZA175, and his wingman, Steve Thomas, were carrying out a low-level combat air patrol to the west of San Carlos over the land. Whilst in a turn, Ward sighted two Argentine Air Force Mirage V "Daggers" approaching from the west at very low level. They were on their way to attack the landing force in San Carlos Water. He flew between them head on and then turned hard to engage them in combat. The Daggers also turned hard but not towards their target. They were running for home. This placed them in front of Steve's Sea Harrier and he shot them down with two AIM-9L Sidewinder missiles. Meanwhile, a third unseen Dagger was firing its cannon from behind Ward's aircraft at him but missed. Ward turned on the Dagger and shot him down with a Sidewinder. Whist this dog fight was going on, a fourth Dagger had evaded intercept and had attacked the air defence control ship Brilliant: fortunately with little damage. The three Dagger pilots, Major Piuma, Captain Donadille and Lieutenant Senn, ejected safely.
1 June 1982
Ward, in Sea Harrier XZ451, and Steve Thomas were in the climb returning to Invincible after combat air patrol when they were alerted by HMS Minerva to an intermittent radar contact 40 miles to the northwest. Ward immediately led his wingman in a hard turn towards the reported contact position and detected a large aircraft target on his Blue Fox radar, at 38 miles and 4,000 feet below. He immediately took charge of the intercept and tracked the target turning towards Argentina and descending. At high speed, the two Sea Harriers closed in on the target and, as he emerged through the low cloud, Ward became visual with a four-engined Lockheed C-130 Hercules transport aircraft at 200 feet above the sea. Short of fuel for the return to Invincible, immediate action was required. Ward's first Sidewinder missile fell just short of the C-130, but the second started a fire between the inner and outer starboard engines. Ward then fired 240 rounds from his Harrier's two ADEN cannons and this action caused the enemy aircraft to lose control, sending it crashing into the sea and killing the seven crew members.
Ward flew over sixty war missions, achieved three air-to-air kills, and took part in or witnessed a total of ten kills; he was also the leading night pilot.
During the War, he was awarded the Air Force Cross for Services to Harrier Aviation and then, after the war, he was decorated with the Distinguished Service Cross for Gallantry.
Having returned to the UK, he received the Freedom of the City of London, became a Member of the Royal Aeronautical Society and achieved 1st place at Greenwich Staff College, receiving the Directorβs Prize. He then served in the Ministry of Defence as the Air Warfare and Air Weapons Adviser to the Naval Staff and the First Sea Lord before voluntarily retiring from the Navy in 1985.
Later life
After retiring from the Royal Navy in 1985 Ward wrote the book Sea Harrier Over the Falklands: A Maverick at War, first published in 1992. In 2001, he returned to the RNAS Yeovilton to fly with his son Kris, after the younger Ward qualified to fly the Sea Harrier FA2. His son died 15 November 2018, aged 45.
In 2011, while residing in Grenada, he had a radio interview with Ezequiel Martel, son of the C-130 Hercules pilot shot down by Ward during the conflict.
Falklands-related Accolades
1976. One of his Phantom pilots: βSharkey, you might be a crazy bastard, but if we ever go to war, I want it to be with you!β
Postwar
First Sea Lord, Admiral Sir Henry Leach:
βWithout the Sea Harrier there could have been no Falklands war.β
Admiral Sir βSandyβ Woodward GBE KCB, Commander of the Carrier Battle Group, Falklands 1982: βIf Sharkey Ward had not disobeyed orders, we would/could not have won the Falklands war.β
Admiral Sir Jeremy Black GBE KCB DSO, Captain of HMS Invincible in the Falklands:
βWhile everyone on board played a significant role, not least 820 squadron with nine Sea Kings β they flew the equivalent of once around the world often in appalling weather without the loss of an aircraft β it must be 801 Squadron, the Sea Harriers, who take the shipβs honours for the campaign. This small body of men, under Lieutenant Commander βSharkeyβ Ward, faced the enemy at close range. They had been reinforced by some aircraft of 899 squadron. They shot down nine aircraft, of which Sharkey shot down three, including a Hercules transport.β
Admiral Sir Derek Roy Reffel KCB, Flag Officer Flotilla 3, who signaled: βNo other ship has contributed so much to the success of the Task Force group operations [as Invincible].β
Major-General Julian Thompson CB OBE, Brigadier commanding 3 Commando Brigade in the Falklands: βSharkey Wardβs book [Sea Harrier over the Falklands] will come as a revelation to anyone who thinks that a fighter pilotβs prelude to battle is a matter of kicking the tires, lighting the fires and heading for the wide blue yonder. Painstaking preparation of his squadron, superlative personal flying skills, and a determination to engage the enemy more closely, made Sharkey Ward a fighter leader in the mould of Bader, Johnson, Ball and others in the past.
To those of us who day after day watched the air attacks on the ships in San Carlos, the best news was the number of Argentine aircraft splashed after each raid. As the Sea Harriers whittled down the enemy, so our admiration for the Fleet air arm increased. Without them we would not have won.β
Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher: βSharkey Ward is one of the 6 most important Names of the Falklands war.β
A private message to Sharkey from one of his squadron maintenance engineers: βSharkey, we would gladly have died for you.β

Arpechim Refinery was one of the largest Romanian refineries and one of the largest in Europe, located in PiteΘti, ArgeΘ County, and had both refining and petrochemical capacities. It was closed in 2011. The refinery has two processing modules with a nominal capacity of 6.5 million tonnes/year. Now only one of the two modules is operating with a capacity of 3.5 million tonnes/year or . The facility is connected by pipeline to the oil fields in the Oltenia Region and to the Port of ConstanΕ£a. The refinery produces around 60% of all the bitumen used in Romania.
History
Arpechim was founded in 1964 in a strategic industrial zone located in Southern Romania near PiteΘti. In the same year the refinery built its first plant specialised in the production of carbon black. In 1967 another two distinct units were established, the PiteΘti Refinery and the Petrochemical Complex () and the Thermal Power Station (). In 1971 the refinery was integrated with the Petrochemical Complex. In 1997 the state established Petrom as the national oil company also including the Arpechim Refinery. In 1999 Arpechim becomes the first refinery in Europe to produce and export diesel with a reduced sulfur content. In 2005 the refinery concludes the building of a new gasoil hydrotreater and new hydrogen plant.
In 2007, Petrom started negotiations with Oltchim (a major petrochemical company in Romania) for the sale of the petrochemical sector from the Arpechim Refinery. The two companies agreed on the transaction and Oltchim had to pay around US$ 150 million to close the deal. On February 17, 2009, Petrom decided to sell the petrochemical sector of the Arpechim Refinery to Oltchim for the price of 1 euro (US$ 1.25), but the buying company has to invest US$ 140 million in the sector due to contract clauses.
The Arpechim Refinery closed in 2011. EUR 52m was allocated by OMV in 2022 for remedial work to the soil on the old site.

A depolarizing prepulse (DPP) is an electrical stimulus that causes the potential difference measured across a neuronal membrane to become more positive or less negative, and precedes another electrical stimulus. DPPs may be of either the voltage or current stimulus variety and have been used to inhibit neural activity, selectively excite neurons, and increase the pain threshold associated with electrocutaneous stimulation.
Biophysical mechanisms
HodgkinβHuxley model
Typical action potentials are initiated by voltage-gated sodium channels. As the transmembrane voltage is increased the probability that a given voltage gated sodium channel is open is increased, thus enabling an influx of Na+ ions. Once the sodium inflow becomes greater than the potassium outflow, a positive feedback loop of sodium entry is closed and thus an action potential is fired.
In the early 1950s Drs. Hodgkin and Huxley performed experiments on the squid giant axon, and in the process developed a model (the HodgkinβHuxley model) for sodium channel conductance. It was found that the conductance may be expressed as:
where is the maximum sodium conductance, m is the activation gate, and h is the inactivation gate (both gates are shown in the adjacent image). The values of m and h vary between 0 and 1, depending upon the transmembrane potential.
As the transmembrane potential rises, the value of m increases, thus increasing the probability that the activation gate will be open. And as the transmembrane potential drops, the value of h increases, along with the probability that the inactivation gate will be open. The rate of change for an h gate is much slower than that of an m gate, therefore if one precedes a sub-threshold voltage stimulation with a hyperpolarizing prepulse, the value of h may be temporarily increased, enabling the neuron to fire an action potential.
Vice versa, if one precedes a supra-threshold voltage stimulation with a depolarizing prepulse, the value of h may be temporarily reduced, enabling the inhibition of the neuron. An illustration of how the transmembrane voltage response to a supra-threshold stimulus may differ, based upon the presence of a depolarizing prepulse, may be observed in the adjacent image.
The HodgkinβHuxley model is slightly inaccurate as it fudges over some dependencies, for example the inactivation gate should not be able to close unless the activation gate is open and the inactivation gate, once closed, is located inside the cell membrane where it cannot be directly affected by the transmembrane potential. However, this model is useful for gaining a high level understanding of hyperpolarizing and depolarizing prepulses. Depolarizing neurons creates a more likely out come of the neuron firing.
Voltage-gated sodium channel
Since the HodgkinβHuxley model was first proposed in the 1950s, much has been learned concerning the structure and functionality of voltage-gated sodium channels. Although the exact three dimensional structure of the sodium channel remains unknown, its composition and the functionality of individual components have been determined. Voltage-gated sodium channels are large, multimeric complexes, composed of a single Ξ± subunit and one or more Ξ² subunits, an illustration of which may be observed in the adjacent image. The Ξ± subunit folds into four homologous domains, each of which contain six Ξ±-helical transmembrane segments. The S4 segments of each domain serve as voltage sensors for activation. Each S4 segment consists of a repeating structure of one positively charged residue and two hydrophobic residues, and these combine to form a helical arrangement. When the channel is depolarized these S4 segments undergo a conformational change that widens the helical arrangement and opens the sodium-channel pore. Within milliseconds after the pore's opening, the intracellular loop that connects domains III and IV, binds to the channel's intracellular pore, inactivating the channel. Thus, by providing a depolarizing prepulse before a stimulus, there is a greater probability that the inactivating domains of the sodium channels have bound to their respective pores, reducing the stimulus induced sodium influx and the influence of the stimulus.
Depolarizing prepulse properties
DPP duration
The relationship between the DPP duration and neuronal recruitment is as follows. If the duration of the DPP is relatively short, i.e. much less than 100 ΞΌs, then the threshold of excitation for the surrounding nerves will be decreased as opposed to increased. Possibly resulting from the depolarization of the S4 segments and the little time given for inactivation. For long duration DPP's the III and IV domains of the sodium channels (discussed above) are given more time to bind with their respective channel pores, thus the threshold current is observed to increase with an increasing DPP duration.
DPP amplitude
As the DPP amplitude is increased from zero to near threshold, the resulting increase in threshold current will grow as well. This is because the higher amplitude activates more sodium channels, thus allowing more channels to become inactivated by their III and IV domains.
DPP inter-phase delay
An increase in the delay between the DPP and the stimulus provides more time during which the sodium channel S4 segments may close and the III and IV domains may detach themselves from their respective pores. Thus, an increase in the DPP inter-phase delay will reduce the effective increase in threshold current, induced by the DPP.
Depolarizing prepulse applications
Elevating pain thresholds
One immediate application for depolarizing prepulses, explored by Drs. Poletto and Van Doren, is to elevate the pain thresholds associated with electrocutaneous stimulation. Electrocutaneous stimulation possesses a great deal of potential as a mechanism for the conveyance of additional sensory information. Hence, this method of stimulation may be directly applied to fields such as virtual reality, sensory substitution, and sensory augmentation . However, many of these applications require the use of small electrode arrays, stimulation through which is often painful, thus limiting the usefulness of this technology. The experimental setup, constructed by Drs. Poletto and Van Doren, was as follows:
4 human subjects, each of which had demonstrated the ability to provide reliable pain judgments in previous studies
left middle finger rests on a 1Β mm diameter polished stainless steel disk electrodes
a single stimulus consisted of a burst of three identical prepulse and stim-pulse pairs, presented at the beginning, middle, and end of a 1-second interval
the prepulse and stim-pulse widths were matched at a duration of 10 milliseconds so that the thresholds would be the same for both
used varying prepulse amplitudes of 0%, 79%, 63%, 50%, 40%, and 32% so as to study their influence over the pain experienced
the experiments were conducted in such a way that the stimulus, without a prepulse was painful for about half of the time; this was achieved by stepping the stim-pulse amplitude up and down for the next trial, based upon whether it was reported as painful
Their results demonstrated that a prepulse before a stimulus pulse effectively reduces the probability that pain will be experienced due to electrocutaneous stimulation. Surprisingly enough, a prepulse of 32% of the amplitude of the stimulus pulse was able to nearly half the probability of experiencing pain. Therefore, in environments in which the pain threshold is difficult to discern, it may be sufficient to deliver a relatively low amplitude prepulse before the stimulus to achieve the desired effects.
Nerve fiber recruitment order
In addition to inhibiting neural excitability, it has been observed that preceding an electrical stimulus with a depolarizing prepulse allows one to invert the current-distance relationship controlling nerve fiber recruitment, where the current-distance relationship describes how the threshold current for nerve fiber excitation is proportional to the square of the distance between the nerve fiber and the electrode. Therefore, if the region of influence for the depolarizing prepulse is less than that for the stimulus, the nerve fibers closer to the electrode will experience a greater increase in their threshold current for excitation. Thus, provided such a stimulus, the nerve fibers closest to the electrode may be inhibited, while those further away may be excited. A simulation of this stimulation, constructed by Drs. Warren Grill and J. Thomas Mortimer, may be observed in the adjacent image. Building upon this, a stimulus with two depolarizing prepulses, each of an amplitude slightly below the threshold current (at the time of delivery), should increase the radii of influence for nearby nerve fiber inactivation and distant nerve fiber excitation.
Typically, nerve fibers of a larger diameter may be activated by single-pulse stimuli of a lower intensity, and thus may be recruited more readily. However, DPPs have demonstrated the additional capability to invert this recruitment order. As electrical stimuli have a greater effect over nerve fibers of a larger diameter, DPPs will in turn cause a larger degree of sodium conductance inactivation within such nerve fibers, thus nerve fibers of a smaller diameter will have a lower threshold current.

The Slovenian National Time Trial Championships have been held since 1991.
Kristijan Koren (U23 category) set absolute best time in 2006 and 2007 Championships and beat all top riders (Elite), and the same thing with U23 repeated at both National Time Trials and Road Race in 2009. After that, Slovenian Cycling Federation (KZS) decided to change rules and make it more understable to public. Unlike before, when the U23 results counted only in their own category, from 2010 onwards, the potential U23 winner by time becomes the Elite - absolute champion (the same goes for 2nd, 3rd...).

Sir Peter Mutton (1565 β 4 November 1637) was a Welsh lawyer and politician who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1604 and 1624.
Mutton was the son of John Mytton, a landowner in the Vale of Clwyd. He matriculated at St Alban Hall, Oxford, on 18 October 1583, at the age of 18. He was called to the bar at Lincoln's Inn in 1594. In 1604, he was elected Member of Parliament for Denbighshire. He was granted the reversion of the office of Attorney General in Wales and Shropshire, Herefordshire, Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Cheshire, and Flintshire for life on 26 March 1607, but resigned the position on 3 December 1614. He was appointed Attorney in the Marches and one of the council, and granted leave to practise on 23 December 1609. He was appointed Prothonotary and Clerk of the Crown in North Wales. He was Puisne Justice until 1621. From 1624 to 1637, he was Chief Justice of the Great Sessions for the counties of Anglesea, Carnarvon and Merioneth. He was knighted on 5 June 1622. Also in 1622 he was chosen a Bencher of Lincoln's Inn. In 1624 he was elected MP for Carnarvon. He was Master in Chancery from 1624 to 1637. He bought Llannerch Hall, Denbighshire.
Mutton died at the age of about 72 and was buried at Henllan.
Mutton married firstly a twelve-year-old orphan girl. He married secondly Eleanor Griffith, widow of Evan Griffith of Pengwern, Flintshire, and daughter of Edmund Williams of Conway, and sister to John Williams Archbishop of York 1641β50.

John Graham Vowell (February 27, 1895 β November 17, 1963) was an American football player for the Tennessee Volunteers, of the University of Tennessee. He was the school's first All-American. Vowell was inducted into the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame for 2017.
Early years
John Graham was born on February 27, 1895, in Martin, Tennessee, to John A. Vowell and Emma Floyd Wilson.
University of Tennessee
1914
Vowell played mostly at end and was a member of the 1914 SIAA champion Vols; the program's first championship of any kind. He scored three touchdowns in that season's final game against Kentucky.
1916
Vowell scored the winning touchdown in the victory over Vanderbilt in 1916 immediately dubbed the upset of the season. He was selected All-Southern in 1916, a year in which he was captain and helped lead the Volunteers to an 8β0β1 record and a share of the SIAA championship. Walter Camp placed Vowell on his All-America third-team. His older brother Morris Vowell was a tackle on some of the same teams. Graham and his family worked in the lumber business.
1921
Vowell came back in 1921, and was given a gold watch by Knoxville fans.

The Merger Treaty, also known as the Treaty of Brussels, was a European treaty which unified the executive institutions of the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC), European Atomic Energy Community (Euratom) and the European Economic Community (EEC). The treaty was signed in Brussels on 8 April 1965 and came into force on 1 July 1967. It set out that the Commission of the European Communities should replace the High Authority of the ECSC, the Commission of the EEC and the Commission of Euratom, and that the Council of the European Communities should replace the Special Council of Ministers of the ECSC, the Council of the EEC and the Council of Euratom. Although each Community remained legally independent, they shared common institutions (prior to this treaty, they already shared a Parliamentary Assembly and Court of Justice) and were together known as the European Communities. This treaty is regarded by some as the real beginning of the modern European Union.
This treaty was abrogated by the Amsterdam Treaty signed in 1997:

Olga DondΓ© (May 23, 1937 β November 16, 2004) was a Mexican artist involved in various fields but best known her still life pieces. She was a self-taught painter, who worked for two years until she decided to enter works in a show in 1968. From then she had about 100 showings of her work, including more than forty individual exhibitions in Mexico, the United States, South Americana and Europe. She also founded artistic organizations, an art gallery and a publishing house. DondΓ©βs work was recognized by admission in the SalΓ³n de la PlΓ‘stica Mexicana, among other honors and her work continues to be shown and honored after her death.
Life
DondΓ© was born in the city of Campeche in southern Mexico. However, the young girl had problems tolerating the intense heat of this coastal city, so her family brought her to live in Mexico City in 1939, when she was two years old. The rest of the family divided their time between the capital and their hometown for a time, before staying permanently in Mexico City. During her first years in school, she began to draw and write poetry. In the fifth grade, she made a map, six meters long, which was used as an example in Mexico City secondary schools.
Her mother died when she was a teenager and she married shortly afterwards. However, the marriage did not last and she divorced in 1958 with two small children. She decided to dedicate herself to painting and applied to an art school, but was turned down, leading to the decision to learn on her own.
In addition to painting, she also involved herself in other projects to earn money. She planned to open an art gallery with her brother but he died before its realization. She later opened a gallery called β33β with a friend.
Later in her career, she want to Paris to learn lithography then returned to Mexico City. Shortly afterwards, in 1977, she began to construct a house in Cuernavaca for her daughter, MarΓa de Lourdes Borrego, and future grandchildren. This house has been featured in various art and architecture magazines and was included in the Anuario de Arquitectura del Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes in 1977.
In the 1980s, she lived in Washington, DC, returning to Mexico City in 1990.
During her life she was involved in many artistic and social organizations, including a number that she founded. She belonged to the FederaciΓ³n de Mujeres Universitarias, and in 1987, worked to found the Museo JoaquΓn Clausell and the Cultural Center of Campeche in her birthplace, which included drawing up the layouts. DondΓ© also participated in the Congreso de Ciudades en Peligro in 1990, with the aim of rescuing the old walled city of Campeche, and presented at events such as the Mexican and Central American Symposium on Women.
Although noted as a visual artist, she also wrote poetry, with some published in various newspapers and magazines. In 1995 she wrote an autobiographical essay called La Soledad Fragmentada.
Although she lived in various parts of Mexico as well as abroad during her lifetime, she lived in Mexico City from 1990 until her death at the age of 67 in Mexico City.
Career
After deciding to learn painting on her own, she worked for two years without showing her work to anyone. Then she decided to enter the collective show ExhibiciΓ³n Solar in 1968, and was accepted unanimously, making it the first exhibition of her work. Since then, her work has been exhibited her work over 100 times, forty three of them in individual shows in Mexico, the United States, South America and Europe. Individual exhibitions include those at the GalerΓa Mexicana de Arte (1968), the Museo de QuerΓ©taro (1968), Pan American Union in Washington (1970), Janus Gallery in Greensboro, NC (1970), GalerΓa Arvil in Mexico City (1971, 1973, 1974, 1977), the San Antonio Museum of Art (1973), Museo de Arte ContemporΓ‘neo in Bogota (1974), Museo y GalerΓa Municipal in Puebla (1974), GalerΓa Serra in Caracas (1975), Festival Latinoamericano de las Artes in San Salvador (1977), Foro de Arte ContemporΓ‘neo in Mexico City (1978), Galeria Gabriela Orozco in Mexico City (1979), Casa de Cultura de MichoacΓ‘n in Morelia (1979, 1992), Instituto PolitΓ©cnico Nacional (1980), Instituto PanameΓ±o de Arte, Panama (1980), GalerΓa Centro Cultural CartΓ³n y Papel de Mexico in Mexico City (1981), Universidad AutΓ³noma de Puebla (1982), Fonapas in Oaxaca (1982), SaΓ±erΓa Gabriela Orozco in Mexico City (1984), Inter-American Development Bank (1985), Museum of Contemporary Hispanic Art in New York (1985), GalerΓa Merk Up in Mexico City (1987), Museo de Arte Moderno (1987), GalerΓa Laura Quiroz in Puerto Vallarta (1988), Farmacia Paris in Mexico City (1988), Palacio de Bellas Artes (1989), Palacio de MinerΓa in Mexico City (1989), ProcuradurΓa General de Justicia Mexico City (1991), Film Festival 21st in Rotterdam (1992), Galeria Artany in Mexico City (1993), GalerΓa de Arte JoaquΓn Clausell in Campeche (1993), Claustro de Sor Juana in Mexico City (1995), Centro MΓ©dico Siglo XX (1997), and Instituto de Cultura de Campeche in Campeche (2000) . Her collective exhibitions include art competitions such as the first Biennial Exhibition of Tapestry at the Museo Carillo Gil in 1978.
She is best known as a painter, but is also known for her engravings, lithographs, sculptures, stained-glass windows, tapestries and even architecture. She, along with Helen Escobedo and Maris Bustamante, promoted βsoft sculptureβ or sculptures created from clay or plasticine, which is not common in Mexico. In 1974, she created the glass doors for the GalerΓa Arvil in Mexico City, named Puerta Vitral. She designed sets and costumes for two theatrical productions with the Universidad Nacional AutΓ³noma de MΓ©xico in 1975, Las Tandas del Tlancualejo and Cristo Quetzacoatl. In 1978, she collaborated with photographer Rogelio Naranjo to mount Dynastic Shooting Ranch, a platform with figures related to Nicaragua dictator Anastasio Somoza Debayle. His figure had a target on the back. She also designed album covers and conceptualized a restaurant.
Her work is part of the permanent collections of the Museo de Arte Moderno of Costa Rica, the Museo de Arte ContemporΓ‘neo in Bogota, the Latin American Art Museum in Washington DC, the Museo de Arte Moderno in Sogamoso, Colombia, the Museo de PanamΓ‘, the Modern Art Museum in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, the Museo Nacional Casa de las AmΓ©ricas in Havana, the Museo de Arte Moderno in Toluca, the Museo de Arte Moderno in CuliacΓ‘n, the Museo Casa de los Cinco Patios in PΓ‘tzcuaro, MichoacΓ‘n, the Museo de Monterrey, the Museo de Colima and the Museo de la SecretarΓa de Hacienda y CrΓ©dito PΓΊblico in Mexico City.
As part of her career, she formed various artistic group such as the Artistas de los InsΓ³litios in 1976 and the Foro de Arte ContemporΓ‘neo in 1978. (arzobispado) DondΓ© also founded the El Taller Gallery and the DomΓ©s publishers.(crΓ³nica) In her later life, she served on various cultural and artistic commissions including the ComisiΓ³n de Cultura Instituto de Estudio PolΓticos, EconΓ³micos y Sociales in 1988, the cultural commission of the Azcapotzalco borough from 1988 to 1994, the AsociaciΓ³n de Artistas PlΓ‘sticas de MΓ©xico, the Mexican national committee of AIAP-UNESCO and the Fine Arts Commission of the Benito JuΓ‘rez borough .
Recognitions for her work include inclusion in various editions of Whoβs Who in America, membership in the SalΓ³n de la PlΓ‘stica Mexciana, an honorary doctorate from the International Academy Foundation in Kansas City, and named a distinguished citizen of the city of Campeche in 1992. At competitions she received a βgran menciΓ³nβ at the first Biennial Latinoamericana in Sogamoso, Colombia in 1973, an honorary mention at the first SalΓ³n Internacional de Formato mΓnimo in Bogota in 1989 and a diploma from the first Bienal Internacional de Juguete Arte Objeto in Mexico City. After her death, exhibitions and homages to her work have included those at the Festival de las Artes Visuales in Campeche (2005), the Festival de Historia de Campeche (2007), Sala de Arte Domingo PΓ©rez PiΓ±a in Campeche (2007) and at the Festival del Centro HistΓ³rico in Mexico City (2008).
Artistry
Although she exhibited in many of the venues of her contemporaries, such as the Palacio de Bellas Artes, she maintained an independent trajectory. Although her techniques varied widely, she was best known for her paintings and drawings of nature, especially fruit, flowers, vegetables and tubers. In his book, critic Enrique F. Gual states that her work has βa deep affinity with surrealism, through which the author is able to extract a special metaphysics from her themes, to crown the universal panorama of Mexican still life.β

John Edward McGinness (born November 19, 1943), is an American physicist and physician. McGinness worked in the fields of organic electronics and nanotechnology.
Education
McGinness studied physics at the University of Houston, and after his B.S. in 1966 he received his PhD in Nuclear Physics, Material Science, and Space Science at Rice University in 1970.
He received his MD from the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth) in 1985 and worked in internal medicine for one year, changing to psychiatry and working at the Department of Psychiatry, UTHealth, from 1989 to 1992. He authored roughly 40 research publications, book chapters, and presentations.
Work
John McGinness materially contributed to the modern field of organic electronics.
In 1972, while working at the Metallurgy department at Youngstown State University, McGinness suggested that electronic conduction in melanins (polyacetylene, polypyrrole, and polyaniline "blacks" and their copolymers) is analogous to conduction in amorphous solids such as the chalcogenide glasses. This area was originally pioneered by Sir Nevill Mott, among others. That is, it involves such things as mobility gaps, phonon-assisted hopping, polarons, quantum tunneling, and so forth.
From Youngstown, McGinness moved to the Physics Department of The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center. The department had an interest in the physical properties of melanin as a possible hook to treating melanoma. While of enormous importance now, this area was a research backwater at the time. With the notable exception of Bolto et al., who had reported high conductivity in iodine-doped polypyrrole, few but melanoma researchers had much reason to look at the electronic properties of such rigid-backbone polymer "blacks". This is why the putative first molecular electronic device came from a cancer hospital.
The chalcogenide glasses show "switching", in which an applied "threshold voltage" reversibly switches a material from a low-conductivity "OFF" state to a high-conductivity "ON' state. The similarity of conduction mechanisms suggested that the melanins might also demonstrate voltage-controlled switching. Following this lead, McGinness and his MD Anderson coworkers constructed a voltage-controlled switch incorporating melanin as its active element . They also further characterized its electronic behavior.
Since he was at a cancer research institute, McGinness' other interests included the role of free radicals in the action and toxicity of the anticancer drugs cisplatin, adriamycin, and bleomycin. He was the first to show that the kidney toxicity of cisplatin involves reactive oxygen species. Some of this work was done with Harry Demopoulos. McGinness was also involved in the dielectric spectroscopy of water bound to membranes. This was related to the future development of magnetic resonance imaging.

The 1962 Houston Colt .45s were an expansion team in American Major League Baseball's National League, and 1962 was the first season in franchise history. Harry Craft was Houston's first manager. The .45s finished eighth among the National League's ten teams with a record of 64β96, 36Β½ games behind the league champion San Francisco Giants.
Offseason
September 11, 1961: Rusty Staub was signed as an amateur free agent by the Colt .45's.
October 13, 1961: Al Cicotte was purchased by the Colt .45s from the St. Louis Cardinals.
March 24, 1962: Dave Philley was signed as a free agent by the Colt .45s.
March 24, 1962: Dave Philley was traded by the Colt .45s to the Boston Red Sox for Tom Borland.
Prior to 1962 season: J. C. Hartman was acquired by the Colt .45s from the Houston Buffaloes as part of a minor league working agreement.
Expansion draft
The Colt .45s were one of two teams added to the National League before the 1962 season, the other being the New York Mets. This brought the number of teams in the NL to ten, matching the 1961 expansion of the American League.

1961 minor league affiliates
The Colt .45s and Mets were established on October 17, 1960, giving them time to acquire professional minor-league players, sign amateur free agents (there was no MLB first-year player draft until 1965) and enter into working agreements with minor league affiliates during the 1961 season. Houston had formal working agreements with two minor league baseball teams in 1961:

Opening Day lineup
Regular season
The Colt .45s started their inaugural season on April 10, 1962, with an 11β2 win against the Chicago Cubs, highlighted by a three-run home run in the bottom of the third inning by RomΓ‘n MejΓas. The .45s would go on to sweep the Cubs in their first three-game series at Colt Stadium. The team finished April with a 7β8 record, 4 games in front of the expansion Mets and only 5 games behind the National League leading Pirates and Giants.
By June 2, with the second loss to the Pirates in Pittsburgh, the Colt .45s had fallen to 16 games behind the eventual National League Champion Giants, a deficit that no pre-wild card team had recovered from to make the post season. And, with an August 21 loss at the hands of the Phillies, the Houston Colt .45s were mathematically eliminated from the postseason with a 37-game deficit to the Dodgers with 37 games left.
To get an idea of how the first season was for Houston, look at the team's best pitcher, Richard "Turk" Farrell. A starter for the Colt .45s, he was primarily a relief pitcher when he was with the Los Angeles Dodgers and Philadelphia Phillies. Turk lost 20 games in 1962, but had an ERA of 3.02. Turk was selected to both All-Star games that year.
There was a bright spot in the line up in 1962. RomΓ‘n MejΓas, who was acquired from the Pittsburgh Pirates in the expansion draft, was named the Colt .45s starting right fielder. It was in Houston that MejΓas would play the best season of his career. While he played better the first half of the season, an injury slowed him the second half of the season. However, he still finished with a .286 batting average, 24 home runs, and 76 RBIs. His modesty and his hard play made him a fan favorite that year. Despite his good year, MejΓas was traded to the Boston Red Sox in the fall of 1962.

Oneiric Gardens is a 2014 video game by Cicada Marionette, the pseudonym of independent video game developer Lilith Zone. Described as a game depicting a "series of chambers drawing from half-remembered spaces (and) feelings," Oneiric Gardens is open-ended adventure game in which the player explores surrealistic spaces. The game received positive attention from critics as a surrealistic work and led to Lilith's exhibition of the game and engagement in the Dutch contemporary art space through MAMA Rotterdam and Het Nieuwe Instituut.
Gameplay
Oneiric Gardens is an open-ended game in which the player explores a series of disjointed and surrealistic environments. The player uses the keyboard to traverse a series of rooms, and can interact with doors, objects and scenery. Doors lead between discontinuous and often contrasting environments, contributing to the dreamlike nature of the game. There is no end state to the game, and players are left to navigate the environment and discover the different spaces in the game.
Development
Oneiric Gardens was intended by Lilith as a playful, exploratory environment evocative of the spaces in early 3D video games, with Lilith comparing the game to a "playground", stating she admired how games of the early 3D era "feel so loose and free as self-assured jungle-gym worlds." Specific inspiration for the game was sourced from the 1994 PlayStation game King's Field, which Lilith states incited the desire to "capture the feeling of sludging around uncomfortable dream geometry."
In February 2017, Oneiric Gardens was showcased as an installation under the Intersections exhibition at MAMA Rotterdam, a gallery of emerging and experimental art. The installation was facilitated by Het Nieuwe Instituut, who also selected Lilith as part of the October 2017 International Visitors Programme, a program inviting international professionals from disciplines including digital culture, and they participated in several festivals and events as part of the program. Het Nieuwe Instituut praised Lilith's work as "(pushing) the boundaries of contemporary art and gaming" and described her work as "surprising, poetic and innovative". Oneiric Gardens was also exhibited at the Dutch art and culture event The Overkill Festival in 27-29 October 2017.
Reception
Oneiric Gardens received praise for its unique and surrealistic presentation, and as an example of "arty indie games" that "exploit the strangeness of early 3D environments". Writing for Rock Paper Shotgun, Adam Smith praised the game for its variety in its presentation of "strange and occasionally sinister spaces", stating the game was reminiscent of "a compilation of ideas that would have been at home on a coverdisc in days gone by, a hypnagogic hallucination derived from a sense of pace and weight reminiscent of nineties FPS games, and with sounds from the digital scrapbook". Dan Solberg of Kill Screen interpreted the game as a genuine source of "imagery...in line with (the) Surrealist tradition," stating "pronounced, distant horizon line and familiar-yet-strange imagery are right out of Surrealismβs playbook," praising the game's "playful exuberance" and "fresh" approach to the surrealist process. In a less favorable review, Kratzen considered the game to be a poor "environmental sim, stating "for such a sim to invite exploration across its every corner, there are very few secrets, easter eggs, or other topics of surprising interests that you can find outside of what the typical player would see regardless."
