service, the aircraft was returned to the factory, whose management donated this veteran aircraft, which is of great industrial, sporting and military importance, to the Royal Hungarian Transport Museum. In 1917 the empty kite of the aircraft was exhibited at the Military Aircraft Exhibition and later at the Royal Transport Museum. According to the Object Guide of the 1917 Military Aircraft Exhibition in the Industrial Exhibition Hall: Wingspan: 14.4 m Length: 8,9 m Height: 3,15 m Take-off weight: 1060 kg Maximum speed: 140 km/h Engine: Hiero, 6-cylinder, 106 kW Aircraft variants produced by Lloyd Between 1914 and 1916, the aircraft factory, which employed 400 people, largely produced versions of the successful first aircraft with various engines, serial numbers 41, 42 and 43. These first aircraft were made of wood and covered with canvas, with the exception of the 40.01, which had a steel tube fuselage imported from Leipzig. The design engineers at the Lloyd factory used the experience of the first war years to produce two versions of the 44 series, the second of which differed from the first in that instead of the previous canvas wing covering, the entire surface of the wings was covered with a thin layer of wooden sheeting, which greatly increased the stiffness of the wing, while at the same time increasing the surface smoothness, resulting in higher speed. The Series 46, produced in 1917, was a completely revised new type. The Lloyd, which at that time was still a novelty, was fitted with a plywood cowling and was now powered by a 136 kW (185 hp) MÁG Daimler engine (this aircraft was also the first version of the two-seat fast-flyer). Given the success of the revised aircraft, the Flieger-Arsenal in Vienna ordered the production of the Hungarian-designed (Series 82) type by the Wiener Karosserie company. This type was later fitted with 162 kW (220 hp) engines from the MARTA factory in Arad and was equipped with both forward and rearward firing machine guns. As at that time design and testing facilities were only available in Vienna, the managers of the Lloyd factory in Asde tried to make up for the lack of

As at that time design and testing facilities were only available in Vienna, the managers of the Lloyd factory in Asde tried to make up for the lack of design and testing experience by building many experimental aircraft. Research in this direction has so far produced 16 experimental aircraft, which have been used to measure strength and flight characteristics. (The most interesting of these experiments was undoubtedly the one carried out during the tender for large aircraft (type G or Grossflugzeug type), when a giant three-engined, two-fuselage, three-deck aircraft (type 40.08) was built in six weeks, using largely parts from the existing aircraft. Unfortunately, the experiment was not a success, however, and the machine broke down on the first test. By the end of 1917, however, the total production capacity of 20-24 aircraft per month was already made up of Austrian licence production of Aviatik C and D.I Berg reconnaissance and fighter aircraft. Production of the Phönix C.I two-seat fast reconnaissance aircraft was due to start in the autumn of 1918, but by then the factory was already suffering from severe shortages of materials, so the first such aircraft could not be assembled until the Soviet Republic. The aircraft assembled at that time was the factory's 49 series, while the Aviatik C.I reconnaissance aircraft were designated 47 and the Aviatik (Berg) D.I fighters,
notable in the number of houses Elwell constructed and for the beauty of its elm-lined streets that he planted. For this real estate development, he applied his gift for practical invention to devise effective drainage of marshy areas into buildable residential lots. Elwell participated very actively in community life, seeking a park, improved streetcar service, and other amenities for the area, through Como Improvement Association activity centered at the Como Congregational Church. In line with his intentions, the neighborhood had a notable demographic blend of blue collar residents (often associated with the adjacent railroad and milling industries on the main lines between St. Paul and Minneapolis), white collar office professionals, and faculty and staff of the adjacent University of Minnesota. The neighborhood and its founding represent the industrial expansion period in the U.S. After a period developing farming and dairying enterprises in nearby Anoka county, he resided in Como near Van Cleve Park until his death in 1933. Legislator Elwell as a state legislator succeeded in providing an important funding mechanism for the city to fund the acquisition of parks, parkways and other elements of the proposed Minneapolis park system. This 1911 "Elwell Law" was recognized by Minneapolis park superintendent Theodore Wirth as the key tool for parks funding and acquisition, during the period when the Minneapolis park system tripled in size and realized the grand vision of early planners such as Horace Cleveland. Writing in a 1946 survey of his career, Wirth acknowledged Elwell's instrumental role: "Let us

The passage of the so-called Elwell Law [1911] provided that authority." Along with its designers and superintendents, Elwell as a public financing architect played a key role in creating one of the leading city park systems in the U.S. He also supported legislation to begin construction of the state's trunk highway net. Aside from the park system, the city of Minneapolis applied the Elwell Law to other public

History Bernhard Russi, a retired Swiss downhill racer and course architect who planned and constructed six Olympic downhill courses, designed this very steep and unusual course for seven years. Two years prior to the Olympics, men's World Cup events (downhill, super-G) were scheduled for this course in February 2020, but were cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On 7 February 2022, Beat Feuz took the gold medal at downhill, his last missing trophy, at premiere competition on this course.

the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Florida University. Early life and education When Posey was in St. Andrews high school, the Miami Dolphins trained at his campus while he was there, making him friends with many Dolphins players. Because of that, he was trained by All-Pro Miami Dolphins starting kicker Garo Yepremian and Miami Dolphins backup kicker Karl Kremser. He was both a kicker and punter. He was also The Herald's 'Offensive Player of The Week' in Palm Beach County twice. Posey came to Florida University with no scholarship, being a walk-on. In a game against the Auburn Tigers on November 2nd, 1974, Posey made 2 field goals including a 47 yarder to take the lead at halftime in a 25-14 victory. Professional career Posey was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers in the 9th round of the 1977 NFL draft. He was cut by the 49ers before the season

He was cut by the 49ers before the season had begun, not playing at all in the 1977 season. In 1978, he was signed to the Atlanta Falcons during the preseason but was also cut by them. However, during the 1978 NFL season, Posey got signed to the New England Patriots to replace the injured John Smith, whom got injured during week 3. In week 15 against the Buffalo Bills, Posey kicked a game-winning field goal to give the patriots their first ever division championship. Playing in eleven games, he made 11-of-22 field goals and 29-of-31 extra points. He played his first playoff game in the divisional round against the Houston Oilers. In that playoff loss, he made 2-of-2 extra

Thus, feature extensions have to be designed and developed at the blockchain consensus level, not on a Turing-complete virtual machine layer which is rather common amongst Ethereum-like blockchains. This results in a blockchain system catered to limited functionality of decentralised finance with limited attack surface. As of February 2022, DeFiChain is not EVM-compatible.

Users of DeFiChain are rewarded for anchoring – or rather storing – DeFiChain's Merkle tree within the Bitcoin mined blocks to benefit from its security and provide matching data. DeFiChain, unlike Ethereum or Bitcoin, does not use the Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus, but rather the PoS consensus which does not require massive computing power for operation. History DeFiChain's white paper was published in October 2019. Shortly thereafter, the DeFiChain Foundation was founded. On 11 May 2020, the DeFiChain blockchain became active by issuing 600 Mio. DFI to partners such as CakeDeFi. Coins have been given to users for the first time through so-called airdrops. In June 2020, DFI was first publically traded on the Latoken exchange. This was followed by a listing on the Bitrue exchange in September, and a listing on Bittrex in October.

These include decentralised loans, mapping assets to tokens such as shares or funds and participating in Proof-Of-Stake consensus, which is ubiquitously known as "Staking". In addition, DeFiChain has integrated its own decentralized exchange (DEX) that enables the exchange of various tokens on the blockchain. The native token on DeFiChain is called DFI. It is traded on the KuCoin, Bittrex and other exchanges. Functional principle Basic functionality Similar to other blockchain projects, DeFiChain is built on the source code of the Bitcoin protocol.

The bout was officially announced on January 27, 2022, and will be co-promoted by Hearn's Matchroom Boxing and Jake Paul's Most Valuable Promotions, who are the respective promoters of Taylor and Serrano. The fight will be broadcast on DAZN. Taylor already holds a victory over Amanda's sister Cindy, having defeated her by unanimous decision in October 2018.

Bob O'Loughlin's search for a killer whale Even before the capture of Moby Doll, Bob O'Loughlin had for years "hoped to display a live killer whale at one of his traveling sports shows," but he had failed in several attempts to catch one at Seattle. According to Seattle Public Aquarium owner Ted Griffin, in one attempt one of O'Loughlin's men, riding aboard a Seattle Police Department helicopter, hit a young orca with a tranquilizer dart. While that appeared to keep the orca relaxing at the surface, another killer whale perceptively knocked out the dart and pushed their podmate out of danger. Capture Bob O'Loughlin's hopes were finally fulfilled after Ted Griffin trapped 15 Southern Resident Killer Whales, probably all from K Pod, in Yukon Harbor in Puget Sound on February 15, 1967. This was the first deliberate multi-orca capture, and marked the full transition of orca captivity from opportunistic novelty to commercial enterprise. In the following years, the demand would outstrip the supply of captured orcas. Griffin would take five of these captured whales to the Seattle Public Aquarium. Two were quickly sold to SeaWorld San Diego. One remaining orca was rented to O'Loughlin. Portland no-show Ted Griffin had hoped to deliver a rented killer whale to the Portland Boat, Trailer and Sports Show, which opened February 17. Bob O'Loughlin, who was producing the show, built a tank for the whale. Corraling selected whales out of the 15 held in Yukon Harbor proved to be a long and difficult process, however. Griffin's first secured catch was "a nine-foot suckling calf" on February 24, two days before the Portland show ended. The Portland plan was dead for 1967, but the traveling Boat and Sports Show was about to move to Vancouver, British Columbia, in March, and the rental agreement was continuing. (The next year, the Portland plan would be fulfilled with another killer whale from this capture operation—Kandu.) Name Before he had received a whale, "O'Loughlin's three children, ages 6 to 9, [had] decided on a name...Would you believe?—Walter the Whale." At an estimated 16 feet, the killer whale chosen for the Vancouver Boat Show was the largest and eldest of the five secured at the Seattle Public Aquarium, and the last to arrive, on March 4. Though O'Loughlin was already using the name Walter in advertising, there were some opinions this killer whale was female. Ted Griffin was quizzed, "Is Walter a Walter?" He said, "Frankly, we don't know yet. But it makes no difference to him if we call him Walter." At the Vancouver Boat Show, March 10 to 19, 1967 Ted Griffin personally managed the whole rental operation, remaining with Walter throughout the Boat Show. During the 4-hour trip by truck from Seattle to Vancouver, attendants sloshed buckets of water over the killer whale to provide vital moisture. Just outside the PNE Agrodome, a tent was set up over a circular portable tank 34 feet across and eight feet deep. This was the killer whale's space for the Boat Show. Following continual phone calls from irate citizens who didn't "want Walter to become another Moby Doll or Namu," the SPCA took particular interest in the

Following continual phone calls from irate citizens who didn't "want Walter to become another Moby Doll or Namu," the SPCA took particular interest in the whale. An SPCA officer checked the tank and raised concerns over its size, and over the killer whale's separation from the other members of the pod. Daily inspections continued, but the SPCA basically accepted the situation. Feeding was a problem. Griffin was trying to wean all the captured orcas onto dead herring, and only fed Walter twice in a week to keep the killer whale hungry. Nonetheless, the Southern Resident killer whale was reluctant to eat the food, and was force fed with a pump. In these early days, the elaborate routines featured in later shows did not exist. Walter's show was given in an era when fishermen normally shot orcas. "Each hour, hundreds of sightseers filed into the tent, where Griffin gave a brief presentation about killer whales, assuring listeners that the species was far friendlier than most believed. Visitors could then approach the pool, where the bravest could offer the whale herring and even rub his rubbery skin." The orca's future trainer Mark Perry in a 2013 interview recalled that "the water in the pool was dirty, making it hard to get a good look." "I don't know what was in it, but it was turbid and kind of crappy-looking," he told Jason Colby. "All you could see was the fin, like Moby Doll." To be sure, it was fascinating to see an orca that close, Perry acknowledged, "but I also thought, at the time, 'this is really sad.'" On March 16, Vancouver's leading radio host Jack Webster broadcast Walter in "the first whale-to-whale telephone

The sepals are bright pink to mauve-pink with a dark red base, long with lobes long and the five petals are about long and glabrous. Flowering occurs from August to November and the fruit is an elliptic capsule long.

of employee safety for "asking a question". Fong-Jones referred to it as an "excuse" to not answer questions like her own, like why they had let the Damore's memo stay on their servers for more than a month if it was grounds for termination, and that she felt it was "a triumph" for her harassers. After a Google+ conversation criticizing the memo was leaked to an alt-right blog, Vox Popoli, and picked up by public figures such as Milo Yiannopoulos, Fong-Jones became a public target for harassment, blaming her and seven other vocal Google employees for Damore's termination. The harassment included death threats and doxing by other employees on websites such as Breitbart News and 4chan. The targeted employees filed complaints, and said that the security teams were vigilant about physical threats to employee safety, including offering to put doxxed employees in a hotel for a night. Danielle Brown, the company's chief diversity officer at the time, who was also a target of the harassment, was supportive, but that none of the complaints about individual employees involved were acted upon and that they were told they may fall under the protection of the National Labor Relations Act of 1935 as "protected concerted activity". Several activist employees who spoke internally about racism and sexism in the wake of the harassment were terminated, and subsequently sued Google. The terms used by some of the reprimanded employees included "white privilege" and "white boy", which Google said in a statement was grounds for termination under their policy that "Promoting harmful stereotypes based on race or gender is prohibited". In October 2017, Fong-Jones arranged for Coworker.org, a labor group that typically assists blue-collar workers in organizing, to give her colleagues a "know your rights" training. She said that when she and her coworkers felt that internal pressure had been fruitless, they wanted to understand what their legal rights were. They had understood that talking to the press was not allowed, due to the company's culture of secrecy. She said they quickly learned they had the right to talk to the press, and that using Google's social networks would not be legally protected. Fong-Jones helped start a petition, along with a statement about her and her colleagues decision to go to the press, demanding a safer working environment, including better moderation of mailing lists, and rules against doxing colleagues. The petition gathered 2,600 signatures. Google Walkout (2018) In February 2018, concerns about Project Maven (Maven), a Pentagon project, which Fong-Jones had previously heard about from a small group of engineers in August 2017 working under Dr. Fei-Fei Li, the chief scientist for Artificial Intelligence (AI) on Google Cloud, materialized into an internal Google+ post by Fong-Jones. The post expressed "grave concerns" that Google might be assisting the United States Armed Forces carry out drone strikes. Fong-Jones, and a group of engineers who posted concerns about being tasked with building an air gap, were referred to as "the Group of Nine" by outraged employees, causing Diane Greene, then-CEO of Google Cloud, to respond on Google+, which was subsequently leaked to The Intercept. Fong-Jones, who had been solicited for comment by a journalist at the outlet, feared that management would feel backed into a corner and offered to help leadership catch "the leaker". Meredith Whittaker, a former Google Cloud program manager, circulated a petition to other employees demanding cancellation of the contract, writing, "Google should not be in the business of war". In June 2018, Google responded to employee and public pressure, promising not to utilize AI for weapons or surveillance and not to renew its Maven contract. In October 2018, Google was accused of mishandling sexual harassment complaints, including a $90 million severance package for Andy Rubin, who was accused of coercing a junior employee into sexual contact, which he denied. Fong-Jones said that the company "covers up harassment," contributing to a work environment that discourages women from reporting misconduct, saying that victims believe, "the men will be paid and the women will be pushed aside." In 2017, Fong-Jones had alleged on Google+ that she was sexually assaulted by a director at the company, which was later reported on. In a series of tweets, Fong-Jones criticized the company's culture as allowing leadership to operate "abuse of power relationships where there was no consent, or consent was impossible." She went on to name the director from her 2017 Google+ post as Richard DeVaul, the head of X Development, who was also named in The New York Times (NYT) article about Rubin. DeVaul apologized for his behavior. On November 1, 2018, across 50 cities, nearly 20,000 Google employees participated in the Google Walkout for Real Change demanding over their working conditions, ethical technology concerns, and how the company handles sexual harassment complaints. One of the catalysts was a report that Project Dragonfly (Dragonfly), a search engine built by Google for China involving censorship that was implicated in the persecution of the country's Muslim minority, the Uyghurs, had ignored the company's privacy review process and lied to the public about how close it was to launch. Pichai was later called to appear before
consulting with Coworker.org, which is backed by Pierre Omidyar of the Omidyar Network, promising that if her fellow employees donated $100,000, she would match it, which she publicized on Twitter. The fund was matched within a few hours, and reached $250,000 within days. Fong-Jones told Fast Company she was seeking to start a fund for workers so that they "feel empowered to speak up about issues in the future", and later to Protocol, "I'm trying to use some of my financial privilege to help those who can't afford to be suddenly laid off". At the time, Fong-Jones noted that the pledges weren't binding and that she would work with lawyers and labor organizations to set up a more formal fund. One of the motivations to threaten to strike again was Dragonfly, and the allegation that the few people with knowledge of the project would be terminated if it was revealed to anyone else, which Google denied. Research scientist Dr. Jack Poulson resigned over the revelations. Fong-Jones threatened to resign if an employee was not appointed to the board of directors, one of the unmet demands from the walkout, by February 1, 2019. Dragonfly had been the subject of the November 1 walkout, but also a petition in August 2018 co-signed by about 1,400 employees, and another on November 27 by more than 700. Employee concerns were downplayed by the CEO of Alphabet, Google's now-parent company, Sundar Pichai, who said they only wanted to learn what Google would "look like" in China, referring to Dragonfly as a "very early" "exploration", a statement that was later alleged to be false or misleading based on leaked internal communications. Resignation (2019) Fong-Jones voluntarily resigned from Google in early January 2019, saying she wanted to create a "more just world rather than exacerbating inequalities". She said she left a job where her compensation totalled about $800,000 in a year, and a half million in unvested restricted stock. In her resignation, she offered that she would reconsider if the company conceded to the previous demand that Google place an employee on its board. Fong-Jones alleges that Google's Human Resources department tried to push her out prior to the end of her notice period, February 1, 2019, and filed a retaliation claim. Google's investigation determined that her allegations were unfounded. She later accepted a stock grant from Google close to around $100,000 to leave early, which she later donated to other organizing workers. She told Business Insider, "If I didn’t care about Google I probably would have silently quit many, many months or years ago." Fong-Jones said that she was worried if she had stayed at Google and continue her activism without burning out, but applauded her colleagues who pressed on without her. Following her departure, she shared responses from the application Blind which were mainly derogatory comments, including transphobia and racist comments about her identity. Comments made on Blind are anonymous, but the comments Fong-Jones shared were in the Google section, which requires a Google email address to be authenticated. She said that it was "scary" to know that they were written by some of her coworkers. In an essay she published on Medium in February 2019, she said, "I have grave concerns about how strategic decisions are made at Google today, and who is missing a seat at the bargaining table." 2019-present In February 2019, Fong-jones joined the startup named Honeycomb, an observability software service, as the company's first developer advocate. She hopes to help engineers better understand distributed systems. Of the company she said she is impressed by the company's commitment to diversity and corporate ethics, with a large number of its leadership roles held by women. In 2021, Fong-Jones spoke at Pulumi's Cloud Engineering Summit for Honeycomb. Fong-Jones has continued to publicly advocate for inclusion, equity, and diversity in the workplace. She has said that the most important thing companies can do is to involve employees in structural decision-making processes, pointing to European Works Councils as an example for American companies to follow. In 2019, Fong-Jones invested $200,000 into Tall Poppy, named for the Roman metaphor, a startup that provides health insurance for online harassment. The Solidarity Fund In 2020, Coworker.org incorporated The Solidarity Fund as a 501(c)(4) Nonprofit organization, after a year of researching the legal intricacies involved in turning Fong-Jones' Google strike fund into a broader fund for the tech industry. To seed the fund, Fong-Jones donated the equivalent of her exit stock grant, which was distributed to 44 organizing tech workers. Roughly half of the initial fund went to Amazon workers. Fong-Jones joined the board as its president, along with Whittaker. Laurence Berland and other Google workers joined as committee members. In fall 2021, Fong-Jones and The Solidarity Fund created an emergency fund after Apple workers, including committee member Cher Scarlett, had been vocal about unfair labor practices, and Netflix workers protested over a Dave Chappelle show with transphobic comments. The fund offered stipends up to $5,000 for Apple and Netflix workers who were involved in organizing efforts. Personal life In 2012, while residing in Massachusetts, Fong-Jones rented her car out through RelayRide (Turo), a ridesharing company that allows you to rent your car out peer-to-peer, and the driver was involved in a traffic collision that resulted in a total loss of her vehicle and the loss of his life, along with damaging another vehicle, and injuring four other people, which the police determined was the fault of the deceased. Fong-Jones was contacted by her own insurance company, Commerce Insurance Group, and learned she could be liable to a lawsuit that exceeded Turo's coverage limits. She posted about the incident on Google+, which was later reported on. When asked about whether or not they would cover

The missionary Alphonse De Moerloose then adopted a Chinese name He Gengbo (和羹柏). He spent a year in the residence of Xixiang, in Wuwei (Gansu) to learn the basics of the Chinese language, then worked in rural and urban parishes. In 1898, Jérôme-Josse Van Aertselaer (1845-1924) was appointed vicar apostolic of “Central Mongolia” where he had previously been director of the seminary before being, between 1887 and 1898, superior general of the congregation . The latter will redirect the missionary career of Alphonse De Moerloose. He left Gansu in February 1899to go to Xiwanzi (西湾子镇), Xian of Chongli, Hebei Province, seat of the Apostolic Vicariate of Central Mongolia where he began work on a major seminary with a chapel and the residence of the Apostolic Vicar. At the same time begins the revolt of the Boxers who destroyed a large number of churches. Xiwanzi escaped this destruction thanks to the protection of the Western military. The support of Van Aertselaer, who has a Euro-centric conception with a predilection for the Gothic style, will allow De Moerloose to develop an important architectural activity. The archives of the Scheutist congregation in China were destroyed after their departure and those of Louvain are incomplete, making it difficult to reconstruct a list of all the buildings he may have built in China. These buildings have been parish churches, schools, orphanages, residences for missionaries, houses for cathecumenians, to meet the growing needs of the congregation. His reputation as From 1903 to 1905, he worked on the Trappist abbey church of Notre-Dame-de-la-Consolation in Yangjiaping (禓家坪) founded in the spring of 1883 by Dom Efrem Seignol (1837-1893).

On Rotten Tomatoes, the film has an approval rating of 96% based on 24 reviews, with an average rating of 7.50/10. Kevin Maher of The Times gave the film 4/5 stars, describing it as "the Jaws of internet dating documentaries" and wrote: "it's so visceral, propulsive and alarming that the prospect of online dating after The Tinder Swindler might seem very foolhardy indeed." Rebecca Nicholson of The Guardian also gave it 4/5 stars, writing: "The Tinder Swindler is snappy and smart and leaves you wanting more, rather than scraping the barrel for every possible angle." Ed Cumming of The Independent also gave it 4/5 stars, saying: "Despite the great yarn at its centre, [the film] sometimes lapses into the self-indulgence common to so many modern documentaries, with endless shadowy reconstructions and a heart-tugging soundtrack." Brian Lowry of CNN was more critical of the film, writing: "Combining the qualities of a Lifetime movie with a catchy title, the marketable elements scarcely mask that the story is actually kind of a bore." The movie clocked 45.8 million hours viewed globally across the week January 31-February 6, and hit the top 10 on Netflix in 92 countries.

He would then use the money gained through the deception to lure new victims, while essentially operating a Ponzi scheme. Later, he would pretend to repay his victims by sending forged documents showing fake bank transfers and then break off contact with the victims.

to take turns selecting amateur basketball players and other eligible players. The KBL rookie draft takes place after the professional season has begun as college competitions generally conclude in August or September. Players from college teams will finish competing in the Korean Universities Basketball Federation and declare eligibility for the upcoming draft. They attend a series of try-outs organized by the KBL roughly analogous to the NFL Scouting Combine and NBA Draft Combine, although their performances during the try-outs do not affect their draft rankings as much compared to the NFL or NBA combines since the media and KBL coaches and scouts evaluate players much earlier through performances in collegiate competitions, the Professional-Amateur Series tournament and the national team. Eligibility Only South Korean citizens (FIBA-registered nationality) are eligible to be drafted. Foreign players are drafted separately due to an existing foreign player quota while foreign players who have a Korean parent but hold a foreign nationality may be drafted through the ethnic draft and not be counted as a foreign player. The applicant must first be registered with the Korean Basketball Association as an amateur in order to be eligible for the draft. Regardless of background, all applicants must apply through a "general public draft" (Korean: 일반인 드래프트). Generally, there are two categories of applicants: 1) Players enrolled in and playing
must apply through a "general public draft" (Korean: 일반인 드래프트). Generally, there are two categories of applicants: 1) Players enrolled in and playing for a university registered as a member of the Korean Universities Basketball Federation (KUBF) 2) Other categories of amateur players, which include: High school students in their final year of high school (Korean: 고3; high school senior) who wish to enter the professional league without playing college basketball South Korean nationals who played for a high school or university team outside South Korea Undrafted players from the previous year University students enrolled at an institution without a basketball team, or is not a member of the KUBF Players from a KUBF-member institution but had taken a leave of absence from the team and wish to return All players go through a try-out and have their height, weight and arm span measurements taken. Players from the first category are then automatically added to the KBL's rookie list while players from the second category must pass another try-out which includes playing in a series of 3x3 and 5x5 games, with KBL scouts and coaches in attendance. Their names are then added to the rookie list if

Known to have existed since the 10th century, the current building was built around 1200, but has been altered several times throughout history. In the late 15th century, a major reconstruction effort altered the chancel, created an ambulatory and replaced earlier side chapels. This reconstruction was partially financed by tapestry maker Pasquier Grenier and his wife Marguerite de Lannoye, who were also buried in one of the chapels. During World War II, the church was heavily damaged by German bombing in 1940 and subsequently reconstructed after the war. It opened again in 1968. The current facade and tower are reconstructions from this period. Inside, the church contains two Late Gothic wooden sculptures, made by Jean Delemer and painted by Robert Campin and dated to 1428. They are of art historical interest as early examples of such Late Gothic sculpture. History The church is mentioned for the first time in written sources during the 10th century.

supernatural have been preserved in the olonkho, a musical folklore tradition. After the Russian conquest of the Yakut homeland in the 17th century some influences from Orthodox Christianity began. During the Soviet Union adherents were persecuted and the faith had to be practiced in secret. After the establishment of the Russian Federation revivalist movements like the Aiyy Faith. Aspects of Yakut shamanism have been promoted by the Sakha Republic, like the Yhyakh festival. Legendary protigentiors Oral histories from the Yakut state their first ancestors were Omogoy Baai () and Ellei Bootur (). The first complete account was written by a member of the Great Northern Expedition, Lindenau, during the mid-18th century. He stated that both men lived on the upper Lena and their descendant Toyon Badzhey later moved to the middle Lena. This version stands out compared to written recordings made a century afterwards, where Omogoy and Ellei themselves migrate to the Middle Lena. This chane could have occurred due to "the process of developing ethnic self-consciousness" from Yakut inhabitation of the Middle Lena where "the ancient version was rethought accordingly." In later accounts Omogoy Baai traveled to Tuymaada Valley of the Middle Lena in the vicinity of modern Yakutsk upon the advice of a shaman. Once there the gods Ieyehsit () and Aiyysyt () assisted him in locating a mare and a pregnant cow, which is seen as a folk memory of livestock domestication. The epithet "baai" (lit. "rich man") characterizes Omogoy as the materially affluent patriarch head of his clan. The homestead Omogoi created was an earthen hut without a stove or chimney. Further, it is claimed that he and his relatives were unaware of blacksmithing or spiritually potent music. Ellei is seen by scholars as a cultural progenitor of the

Where he came from ranges in stories from not being specified, around Lake Baikal, or the lands of either the Urankhay, Mongols, or Tatars. This variety potentially arose from the cultural diversity of Lake Baikal tribes that later became ancestors of the Yakut. Arriving at the Middle Lena, Ellei became a slave of Omogoy and later married one of his daughters. Angry at this development Omogoy evicted his daughter and Ellei but gave them a single horse and cow.

Chazdon completed three post-doctoral fellowships before becoming an assistant professor at the University of Connecticut (UConn) in 1988. She eventually received tenure in 1994 and was promoted to the rank of full professor in 2000. In this role, she served as the president of the Association for Tropical Biology and was a member-at-large to the Governing Board of the Ecological Society of America. In this role, she became a Fulbright Senior Scholar which supported her project titled "Effects of Forest Structure and Canopy Closure on Tree and Sapling Growth in Wet Tropical Forests." During the 2003–2004, Chazdon received the President's Medal from the British Ecological Society and was named UConn's Faculty Member of the Year. She was also named the editor-in-chief of the journal Biotropica after having previously served on the governing board. In 2007, Chazdon collaborated with Brazilian and Mexican researchers to examine the validity of "chronosequence" studies in La Selva. While serving in these roles, Chazdon began long-term studies on tropical forest regeneration in northeastern Costa Rica and led a 10-year multi-country research project involving long-term ecological studies on tropical forest regeneration in Mexico, Costa Rica, and Brazil. In May 2013, Chazdon was invited to partake in a discussion of tropical forest ecology and climate change with the Royal Society in London. She credited her selection for the committee due to research into tropical forest regrowth and her scholarly book Second Chance: Tropical Forest Regeneration in an Age of Deforestation. Following this, she published her book Second growth: The promise of tropical forest regeneration in an age of deforestation through the University of Chicago Press which was formed as a guide to restoration. Later, Chazdon became the director of the Tropical Reforestation Research Coordination Network (PARTNERS) which aimed to utilize both natural and social sciences

Mantua and Verona and a key crossing on the river Mincio. As they advanced closer to the enemy the French and Venetian commanders made "resolutions (...) to take Villabuona, Marengo [a locality in the comune of Marmirolo] and San Britio [also in the comune of Marmirolo], which are places near Valeggio".Later accounts supplied by the Venetian historian and author Girolamo Brusoni specify that the Chevalier de la Valette, half-brother of the French commander, the Duc de Candale, occupied the village of Marengo, while Venetian commander colonel Ludovico Vimercati occupied and fortified with trenches the nearby hamlet of Villabuona. The Duc de Candale, Zaccaria Sagredo and the greater part of the Franco-Venetian forces all seem to have still been in nearby Valeggio Sul Mincio, the principal market-town of the area, when the engagement between Franco-Venetians and Imperial troops began on the 29 of May. Venetians at Villabuona The battle took place in and around the Venetian position at Villabuona. Girolamo Brusoni states that the Venetians had dug trenches in Villabuona after taking over the place, but this is denied by the Mantuan historian Federico Amedei, who insists that no fortifications were present, and that the village was a mere hamlet with no real defenses. The contemporary Creman historian Ludovico Canobio states instead that the principal part of the hamlet of Villabuona consisted of a large walled farmhouse with a courtyard and four entrances to it, and that the Venetian commander Vimercati - who was from Crema, and may have supplied Canobio with his account of the engagement - had ordered "some earthbanks to be raised and to also to make in the walls some slits and holes for muskets". He also adds that just before the engagement began three companies of Venetian light horsemen ("cappelletti") had come to Villabuona to reinforce Vimercati's detachment. Battle The first clash between the two opposing armies occurred outside of Villabuona as "some companies of Croats" from the Imperial army and Venetian "cappelletti" that were scouting the countryside ran into each other. The Venetian historian Vianoli's account of the battle uses the ethnic term "Albanesi" instead of the specific military term "cappelletti" for the Venetian troops involved in the opening phase of the battle against the Croats, but as most cappelletti were recruited in Albania the two terms were sometimes used interchangeably, and so Vianoli is most likely referencing the same body of light cavalry. All Venetian accounts of the battle suggest that though the Cappelletti fought valiantly against the Croats, they were outnumbered and soon found themselves in difficulty. The arrival of French cavalry and Mantuan volunteers led by the Chevalier de la Valette won the cappelletti some reprieve, but the Franco-Venetian troops were eventually driven back

The arrival of French cavalry and Mantuan volunteers led by the Chevalier de la Valette won the cappelletti some reprieve, but the Franco-Venetian troops were eventually driven back to their defensive positions in the hamlet of Villabuona. Pietro Giovanni Capriata's account suggests the arrival of a large group of German soldiers in Imperial pay was crucial in turning the tide and forcing the French and Venetians to retreat to the hamlet after the initial engagement with the Croat troops. Imperial troops then attacked the hamlet. Brusoni states that three assaults were repealed before a carefully placed six-gun battery drove the Venetian forces away, allowing Imperial forces to take control of the village, and to capture the Chevalier de la Valette in the ensuing fight. Capriata, the pro-Imperial chronicler writes that German cannon-fire was key in capturing Villabuona. Canobio states instead that the Chevalier de la Valette was captured during an ill-fated cavalry sortie out
