Provincial armies had some musketeers; for example they served against the Portuguese invading army in 1622. Three hundred and sixty musketeers served in the Kongo army against the Portuguese at the Battle of Mbwila. The "vata" village, referred to as "libata" in Kongo documents and by the Portuguese in the sixteenth century, served as Kongo's basic social unit after the family. "Nkuluntu", or mocolunto to the Portuguese, chiefs headed the villages. The one to two hundred citizens per village migrated about every ten years to accommodate soil exhaustion. Communal land-ownership and collective farms produced harvests divided by families according to the number of people per household. The nkuluntu received special premium from the harvest before the division. Villages were grouped in "wene", small states, led by "awene" (plural of "mwene") or "mani" to the Portuguese. Awene lived in "mbanza", larger villages or small towns of somewhere between 1,000 and 5,000 citizens. Higher nobility typically chose these leaders. The king also appointed lower-level officials to serve, typically for three-year terms, by assisting him in patronage. Various provinces made up Kongo's higher administrative divisions, with some of the larger and more complex states, such as Mbamba, divided into varying numbers of sub-provinces, which the administration further subdivided. The king appointed the Mwene Mbamba, the Duke of Mbamba after the 1590s. The king technically had the power to dismiss the Mwene Mbamba, but the complex political situation limited the king's exercise of his power. When the administration gave out European-style titles, large districts like Mbamba and Nsundi typically became "Duchies". The administration made smaller ones, such as Mpemba, Mpangu or a host of territories north of the capital), "Marquisates". Soyo, a complex province on the coast, became a "County," as did Nkusu, a smaller and less complex state east of the capital. Hereditary families controlled a few provinces, most notably the Duchy of Mbata and County of Nkusu, through their positions as officers appointed by the king. In the case of Mbata, the kingdom's origin as an alliance produced this power, exercised by the Nsaku Lau. In the seventeenth century, political maneuvering also caused some provinces, notably Soyo, but occasionally Mbamba, to be held for very long terms by the same person.

Dong Ap Bia Dong Ap Bia (, Ap Bia Mountain) is a mountain on the Laotian border of South Vietnam in Thừa Thiên–Huế Province. Rising from the floor of the western A Shau Valley, it is a looming, solitary massif, unconnected to the ridges of the surrounding Annamite range. It dominates the northern valley, towering some 937 metres above sea level. Snaking down from its highest peak are a series of ridges and fingers, one of the largest extending southeast to a height of 900 metres, another reaching south to a 916-metre peak. The entire mountain is a rugged, uninviting wilderness blanketed in double- and triple-canopy jungle, dense thickets of bamboo, and waist-high elephant grass. Local Montagnard tribesmen call Ap Bia "the mountain of the crouching beast." In May 1969, Dong Ap Bia was the site of the Battle of Hamburger Hill, a battle of the Vietnam War which was fought by the United States and South Vietnam against North Vietnamese forces.

Alpha-2A adrenergic receptor The alpha-2A adrenergic receptor (α2A adrenoceptor), also known as ADRA2A, is an α2 adrenergic receptor, and also denotes the human gene encoding it. α2 adrenergic receptors include 3 highly homologous subtypes: α2A, α2B, and α2C. These receptors have a critical role in regulating neurotransmitter release from sympathetic nerves and from adrenergic neurons in the central nervous system. Studies in mice revealed that both the α2A and α2C subtypes were required for normal presynaptic control of transmitter release from sympathetic nerves in the heart and from central noradrenergic neurons; the α2A subtype inhibited transmitter release at high stimulation frequencies, whereas the α2C subtype modulated neurotransmission at lower levels of nerve activity This gene encodes α2A subtype and it contains no introns in either its coding or untranslated sequences. Although the pre-synaptic functions of α2A receptors have been a major focus (see above), the majority of α2 receptors in the brain are actually localized post-synaptically to noradrenergic terminals, and therefore aid in the function of norepinephrine. Many post-synaptic α2A receptors have important effects on brain function; for example, α2A receptors are localized on prefrontal cortical neurons where they regulate higher cognitive function.

Edgardo Madinabeytia Edgardo Madinabeytia (28 August 1932 – 2002) was an Argentine football goalkeeper who won a number of championships with Atletico de Madrid of Spain in the 1960s. Madinabeytia started his playing career in 1950 with Huracán of the Primera División Argentina he made over 100 appearances for the club before joining Atletico de Madrid in 1958. During his time with Atletico the club won La Liga once, three Copa del Rey and the 1961–62 European Cup Winners' Cup. He made a total of 237 appearances for the club in all competitions. In 1967, he joined Real Murcia of the Segunda División where he played until his retirement in 1969.

Decreased motor activity and poor sight reflexes were also observed in a study on New Zealand white rabbits that were exposed to DCPA. There were no physical developmental effects in the offspring of pregnant rats exposed to DCPA. Rats whose mothers were exposed to DCPA during pregnancy had impaired higher-level learning test scores than those whose mothers were not exposed. Studies regarding the carcinogenicity of DCPA have produced mixed results. A study by ISK Biotech Corp. in 1993 showed DCPA leading to thyroid tumors in male and female rats, and liver tumors in female rats. Alternatively, a 1963 study using pure DCPA did not produce any negative results when administered to albino rats. Studies have demonstrated that DCPA acts as a chemical disruptor by interfering with microtubule formation in exposed cells. This interference results in abnormal cell division. The abnormal microtubules affect cell wall formation as well as chromosome replication and division. The key difference between DCPA and other mitotic inhibitors is that it often produces multinucleate cells. It essentially kills plants by inhibiting cell division in this manner. Exposure to DCPA has shown damaging effects in the adrenal glands, kidneys, livers, thyroids, and spleens of laboratory animals. The effects on the rabbits included decreased motor activity and poor reflexes. In the U.S. The Safe Drinking Water Act of 1996 has the U.S. EPA publish a list of contaminants referred to as the Contaminant Candidate List to assist in research efforts. The Safe Drinking Water Act also calls for the EPA to choose five contaminants from the list and determine whether regulation is necessary. In July 2008, the EPA determined that no regulatory action is necessary for DCPA mono-acid (MTP) degradate and DCPA di-acid (TPA) degradate. After multiple studies, it was determined that degradates of DCPA appear too infrequently to pose a serious health risk so the government does not regulate DCPA or its degradates in drinking water. Public water systems are also not required to monitor DCPA, MTP, or TPA. There are standards set by some states ranging from 0.17 µg/L to 2 µg/L. In California, DCPA products are required to be labeled with the information that products with DCPA also contain trace amounts of Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) which is a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer or birth defects.

Milano Porta Vittoria railway station Milano Porta Vittoria is an underground railway station in Milan, Italy. It opened in 2004 as part of the Milan Passante railway, as its south-eastern gate. The station is located on Viale Molise. Milano Porta Vittoria is served by the lines S1, S2, S5, S6, S12 and S13 of the Milan suburban railway service, operated by the lombard railway company Trenord.

In Europe, it was broadcast in Bosnia and Herzegovina on RTVUSK; in Croatia on ATV Split/TV Jadran, Nezavisna televizija (NeT), TV Nova Pula and Gradska TV Zadar; in Germany 1977 in ZDF; in France on ORTF (1972) and on TF1; in Italy first in syndication from 1977 and lately on Italia 1 (in 1999 and 2003 with the title "Una giungla di avventure per Kimba" [literally "a jungle of adventures for Kimba"]) and Boing (2010) and in Spain on TV3. In North America, it was broadcast in Canada on Knowledge; in Mexico on Boomerang. It was broadcast, with English-dubbed voices, in the United States and other English-speaking markets, beginning on September 11, 1966. It was first commissioned for U.S. development by NBC Enterprises (the original version, now part of CBS Television Distribution) and adapted by Fred Ladd, for syndicated broadcast, with Kimba voiced by Billie Lou Watt. In 2005 the original 1965 dub of "Kimba the White Lion" was released as an 11-disc DVD set by Madman Anime of Australia and Right Stuf International of the U.S. It was a best seller. The series was re-dubbed into English in 1993, featuring the voice of Yvonne Murray as Kimba and having a new opening, with an all new soundtrack composed by Paul J. Zaza. In 2012 Bayview Entertainment/Widowmaker releases "Kimba the White Lion: The Complete Series" 10 DVD box set of the original 1965 series. It was broadcast several times in the United States: on KHJ-TV (1965–67; Billie Lou Watt dub), on NBC (1965–77, re-runs until 1980; Billie Lou Watt dub), on syndication (1965–77; Billie Lou Watt dub; 1993, re-runs until 1995; Yvonne Murray dub), on Kids & Teens TV (1993 re-runs; 2005–2009) and on Inspiration Life TV (1993 re-runs; 2005–2009). All of the TV and film titles are translations from the Japanese version. This series is a sequel to the original 1965 series where it takes place in the future when Leo is now a full-grown lion. Osamu Tezuka's dream was to create a series that went through all phases of Leo's (Kimba's) life.

Less than two weeks after the end of the regular season, Sanderson was fired. Sanderson worked with his brother Lindsay once again during the 2007 season. Lindsay, the head coach and GM of the Philadelphia Wings, hired Terry as an assistant coach. Both were relieved of their coaching duties after the season as the Wings missed the playoffs for the fifth consecutive year. On July 17, 2007, Sanderson was hired by the Calgary Roughnecks to be their defensive coach for the 2008 NLL season. On June 10, 2009, after two seasons in Calgary, including the 2009 championship season, Sanderson was re-hired by the Rock as their new GM and assistant coach. On November 13, 2014, Toronto Rock owner, Jamie Dawick, announced that Sanderson would be taking an indefinite leave of absence from his role as General Manager, with Dawick serving as the interim General Manager in his place. On November 27, 2014, Toronto Rock owner, Jamie Dawick, confirmed, via Twitter, that Sanderson had died due to health issues. Sanderson owned and operated Sanderson's Source for Sports, a hockey and lacrosse equipment store located in Orangeville.

"GamePro"s brief review also deemed the limited number of competitors to be a major flaw, additionally criticized the sound effects, and was more dismissive of the game in general. The game saw strong sales in Japan. On April 18, 1997, Atlus released a sequel, "Touge King: the Spirits 2", again developed by Cave. It was never released outside Japan.

Trans-Oconee Republic The Trans-Oconee Republic was a short-lived, independent state west of the Oconee River (in the state of Georgia). Established by General Elijah Clarke in May 1794, it was an attempt to head off the new Federal government's ceding of lands claimed by Georgia back to the Creek. In September 1794, state and federal troops forced Clarke and his followers to surrender and leave the settlements. The armed forces destroyed the houses and forts. In February 1794, General Elijah Clarke, a popular veteran of the American Revolutionary War, resigned his current commission in the Georgia state militia in order to lead an expedition against the East Florida colony. Clarke had become involved in a French-supported scheme to invade East Florida, which was then controlled by the Kingdom of Spain. When the invasion failed to develop, General Clarke and several hundred of his followers moved instead to establish an independent state west of the Oconee River —on hunting grounds reserved by the federal Treaty of New York (1790) exclusively for the Creek Indians. Georgia had not been consulted on the original treaty —which included giving titled lands back to the Creek. Many European American settlers in Georgia resented the treaty because they saw it as limiting the possibilities for the future expansion of their state. Clarke's frontiersmen made settlements on lands in present-day Greene, Morgan, Putnam, and Baldwin counties of Georgia. The settlers built several towns and forts over the next few months. They also wrote and ratified their own constitution, indicating the permanent intention of their endeavor. With little overt opposition from the Creek, they were taking control of the lands before the state or federal governments could react. The United States government viewed Clarke's actions as a violation of the Treaty of New York, which provided recognition of Creek lands in an effort to maintain peace and guarantee their neutrality. President George Washington pressured the Georgia Governor, George Mathews, to remove the illegal settlers from the Creek lands. Mathews initially ignored the "unauthorized military expedition," because he shared the state's resentment of the treaty and was well aware of Clarke's popularity as a hero of the Revolution. He took only token measures to stop Clarke and his party, such as issuing a proclamation in July 1794 that went unenforced. It is unlikely that Mathews had enough public support to move against Clarke at that juncture, but the tide of public opinion eventually changed. In late August, Judge George Walton issued a charge to an Augusta grand jury in which he condemned the actions of Clarke and his followers, and explained that they constituted a threat to the state and federal powers.

As part of an agreement with the London County Council, Cummins was limited to five house of filming per day and had to be supervised by a governess. The film was also a debut for her co-star Shaun Glenville, a music hall performer. This was only one of two film roles Glenville played in his career. O'Dowd" was distributed by the production studio Warner Bros. in 1940, with an initial trade showing in London on 16 January 1940. It had a public release in UK and Ireland in the same year. It was also distributed in America and Australia. The film was received very positively by critics. One Irish newspaper described it as "one of the best films about Ireland ever made." "Kinematograph Weekly" summed up its positive response to the film as: "Good story, competent treatment, captivating juvenile angle, effective dramatic twists, good comedy and excellent atmosphere." In Australia, "The Examiner" described it as "one of the surprise hits of the year". Praise was particularly given to the two main actors, Shaun Glenville and Peggy Cummins. Despite the latter's young age, "Kinematograph Weekly" predicted that "Given the chance, she'll go far". "Halliwell's Film Guide" describes it as a "somewhat woebegone tearjerker with an interesting cast". The film is missing from the BFI National Archive, and is listed as one of the British Film Institute's "75 Most Wanted" lost films. No sequences of film are known to survive, although the BFI does possess a collection of stills from the production.

Income Support Income Support is an income-related benefit in the United Kingdom for some people who are on a low income. Claimants of Income Support may be entitled to certain other benefits, for example, Housing Benefit, Council Tax Reduction, Child Benefit, Carer's Allowance, Child Tax Credit and help with health costs. A person with capital over £16,000 cannot get Income Support, and savings over £6,000 affect how much Income Support can be received. Claimants must be between 16 and Pension Credit age, work fewer than 16 hours a week, and have a reason why they are not actively seeking work (caring for a child under 5 years old or someone who receives a specified disability benefit). Claimants can receive income support if they are a lone parent and responsible for a child under five who is a member of their household. A claimant is considered responsible for a child in any week if receiving child benefit for the child. However, if a claimant arranges for their child benefit to be paid to someone else, for example, an ex-partner, the claimant will still be treated as receiving the child benefit. If the claimant is at school or in higher education, the claimant may be able to get Income Support if they are: If the claimant is aged 18 to 24 and is attending an unwaged Work Based Learning Programme (England) or Skillseekers (Scotland) course, the claimant may be able to get Income Support. If the claimant is aged 16 or 17, the claimant may get Income Support only if in one of the categories of persons who can get Income Support whilst studying. On 27 October 2008, the Employment and Support Allowance replaced Income Support claimed on grounds of sickness or disability. Claims for Income Support made before that date were transferred to ESA . Prior to this, claimants could be entitled to Income Support if they were unable to work due to sickness and had no or reduced entitlement to Incapacity Benefit. Normally, a claim for both benefits was made and the amount of Incapacity Benefit due was calculated according to the claimant's past National Insurance contributions. If too few contributions had been made for the full rate of Incapacity Benefit to be paid, Income Support may have been paid to top up the amount the claimant received to Income Support rates. You may be able to get Income Support when on unpaid statutory parental leave if, when you were working, you were getting any of the following. The weekly personal allowances for 2016/17 are shown in the table below. Higher rates are set for eligible couples where either one of the couple is responsible for a child, or if each member of a couple is eligible for one of the following benefits if they weren't a couple: To this basic amount may be added amounts for qualifying claimants: Existing income from benefits or other sources may be taken into account and deducted from any Income Support entitlement awarded to a claimant.

President's College, Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte The President's College is a boys' national school in Sri Jayawardenapura Kotte, Sri Lanka. Founded on 4 February 1978, its inauguration was the first official act carried out by President J. R. Jayewardene. The college began with two grades- Lower Kindergarten and Year 1, with four teachers and 351 students. The school had its first sports meet in 1980, and began offering Advanced Level classes in 1988. Initially located at Torrington Place, Colombo 7, the school was shifted to its current premises on 21 June 1983. It was given National School status in 1999. In 2019 February a 25-meter eight lane swimming pool complex was declared open by Minister of Education Akila Viraj Kariyawasam and Minister of Economic Reforms and Public Distribution Dr. Harsha de Silva.

Anjukottai Anjukottai is a village in northern Ramnad district, Tamil Nadu, India, from Tiruvadanai; and from Thondi. It includes seven small villages: Vaniyenthal, Melavayal, Pottakottai, Manathadal, Karaiyakottai, Chinna Anjukottai and Periya Anjukottai. Hindus (the majority), Muslims and Christians live there. The village has one mosque, six churches and more than 15 temples. Most of the people are farmers and businessmen. The Maravar community was the largest. There are schools, hospitals, a panchayath union, post office, and bus stand. It is back-bone and heart to Thiruvadanai Taluka. Once the Thiruvadanai Taluka was managed by a person from this village who was the chairman Mr. A.T.M.Ramanathan ambalam. After ATMR in 2011 local body election Mrs. Muniyammal Rajendran who belonged to Vaniyenthal village in Anjukottai was selected as Chairman of the Thiruvadanai union. She was the first AIADMK Chairman in Thiruvadanai union . People of this village has participated in most of the movements conducted by Gandhi. They have also participated in the movement which was conducted by Subas Chandra Bose.

That’s less than in the United States, where about 20 to 25 percent of the people who are murdered in a given year are women". Other scholars also state that femicide rates in Ciudad Juárez are lower than in American cities such as Houston and Ensenada, and as a share of overall homicide rates they are typically lower than in other cities. Drug cartels operate in Juárez, which has resulted in high levels of violence against the local population, including women and girls. Often, misogyny is a common trait of gang activity. According to a study conducted in 2008, 9.1% of the murders of women were attributed to organized crime and drug trafficking activities. Maquiladoras are widely known for their cheap labor and their exploitative conditions, such as regularly violating basic human rights, that often target women. Women and girls often migrate from villages or rural areas in other parts of Mexico in search of work in the maquilas. According to Livingston, this migration of women created, "a new phenomenon of mobile, independent and vulnerable working women," in cities like Ciudad Juárez. Many of the murder victims in Ciudad Juárez have been maquiladora employees. Despite the expansion of the maquila industry, Juárez still remained a relatively poor and undeveloped city lacking infrastructure in some parts such as electricity and paved roads. As a part of their daily commute, many women maquila workers walk through such areas to and from company buses creating vulnerability to be victimized. In addition, the increased involvement of women in the labor force may also be a contributing factor to the victimization of women and girls because of the competition for economic resources in decades in which male unemployment has been high. The implementation of the North American Free Trade Agreement in 1994 resulted in the expansion of the maquiladora industry and created new opportunities for employment for women outside of the home and in the factories. The availability of cheap labor made it attractive for business owners to open factories in Mexico, and the availability of cheap employment attracted many, especially women, to border towns such as Ciudad Juárez. Research has shown correlations between economic and political issues and violence against women along the border. Academic Katherine Pantaleo has argued that, "NAFTA, as a capitalist approach, has directly created a devaluation of women and an increase in gendered violence." Further, according to Wright, in the time period between the implementation of NAFTA in 1994 and 2001, "the homicide rate for men increased by 300 percent, while for women it increased by 600 percent."

John Holer John Holer (August 15, 1935 – June 23, 2018), born Ivan Holerjem, was a Slovenian Canadian businessman. An immigrant to Canada, Holer is most notable for founding Marineland of Canada in Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. He founded the park in the early 1960s and managed it until his death in 2018. Holer was born in Žice, a village in Slovenia, then part of Yugoslavia. His family were farmers and vintners in a wine region. Holer himself studied the chemistry of wine in technical school. After the Second World War, when Communists expropriated part of the family farm, Holer escaped across the border into Graz, Austria. He worked at a winery before travelling to Germany, where he gained employment with Circus Krone and learned to train animals. Holer immigrated to Canada in 1957, settling in the Niagara area. Holer worked at various jobs, including at the Canada Steamship Lines dry dock at Welland, Ontario. Observing a damaged submarine at the dry dock, Holer and a partner devised an idea for an underwater submarine ride, plans of which they sold to The Walt Disney Company for . Using some of the proceeds, Holer, with a partner, bought part of the Harry Oakes estate in Niagara Falls on which to build an animal attraction for Niagara tourists, doing some of the building himself. The "Marine Wonderland and Animal Farm" opened in 1961. Holer had welded two large steel tanks together and brought in three sea lions and charged one quarter for admission and another to feed the animals. The attraction also featured an underwater show featuring two female swimmers. Holer owned and supervised Marineland of Canada, as it was later named, until his death in 2018. Holer was known to ride around the park in a golf cart, personally supervising. Marineland expanded in the 1970s and 1980s, adding marine mammals (orcas, belugas and dolphins ), land animals and large rides, including a large roller coaster and tower drop ride. The park's keeping of marine mammals attracted the attention of animal activists, opposed to the keeping of the animals in captivity, who would protest outside the park's gates. In the 2010s, the park was investigated several times for animal cruelty. Through it all, Holer insisted that his animals were well taken care of, and initiated lawsuits against former employees, activists and the Ontario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Holer died on June 23, 2018, aged 82.

This follows from the importance of the engineering requirements; namely spanning the obstacle and having the durability to survive, with minimal maintenance, in an aggressive outdoor environment. Bridges are first analysed; the bending moment and shear force distributions are calculated due to the applied loads. For this, the finite element method is the most popular. The analysis can be one, two or three-dimensional. For the majority of bridges, a two-dimensional plate model (often with stiffening beams) is sufficient or an upstand finite element model. On completion of the analysis, the bridge is designed to resist the applied bending moments and shear forces, section sizes are selected with sufficient capacity to resist the stresses. Many bridges are made of prestressed concrete which has good durability properties, either by pre-tensioning of beams prior to installation or post-tensioning on site. In most countries, bridges, like other structures, are designed according to Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD) principles. In simple terms, this means that the load is factored up by a factor greater than unity, while the resistance or capacity of the structure is factored down, by a factor less than unity. The effect of the factored load (stress, bending moment) should be less than the factored resistance to that effect. Both of these factors allow for uncertainty and are greater when the uncertainty is greater. Most bridges are utilitarian in appearance, but in some cases, the appearance of the bridge can have great importance. Often, this is the case with a large bridge that serves as an entrance to a city, or crosses over a main harbor entrance. These are sometimes known as signature bridges. Designers of bridges in parks and along parkways often place more importance to aesthetics, as well. Examples include the stone-faced bridges along the Taconic State Parkway in New York. To create a beautiful image, some bridges are built much taller than necessary. This type, often found in east-Asian style gardens, is called a Moon bridge, evoking a rising full moon. Other garden bridges may cross only a dry bed of stream washed pebbles, intended only to convey an impression of a stream. Often in palaces a bridge will be built over an artificial waterway as symbolic of a passage to an important place or state of mind. A set of five bridges cross a sinuous waterway in an important courtyard of the Forbidden City in Beijing, China. The central bridge was reserved exclusively for the use of the Emperor and Empress, with their attendants.

Frank Sanderson Sir Frank Bernard Sanderson, 1st Baronet (4 October 1880 – 18 July 1965) was a British Conservative Party politician and public servant. During the First World War, Sanderson was Controller of Trench Warfare, National Shell Filling Factories and Stores at the Ministry of Munitions. He was elected as Member of Parliament (MP) for the Darwen constituency at the 1922 general election, but was defeated at the 1923 general election by the Liberal Frederick Hindle. He regained the seat from Hindle in 1924, but lost it again at the 1929 general election to the future Liberal leader, Herbert Samuel. Sanderson did not contest Darwen again, and at the 1931 general election he was returned to Parliament as MP for Ealing. He held that seat until its abolition for the 1945 general election, when was elected in the new Ealing East constituency. He retired from the House of Commons at the 1950 general election. Sanderson was an advocate of compulsory voting. Sanderson married Edith Amy Wing in 1904 and had sons Frank and Derek. He was created a baronet, of Malling Deanery in South Malling in the County of Sussex, in the 1920 Birthday Honours for his wartime work.

Returning to film, as the last feature she starred in was 2007's "Noise", Moynahan appeared in "Ramona and Beezus", playing the mother to Joey King and Selena Gomez's characters. The film was directed by Elizabeth Allen and released in July 2010. The following year, Moynahan starred alongside Aaron Eckhart, Michelle Rodriguez, and Michael Peña in the action science-fiction feature "" (2011). Away from film, Moynahan stars in the CBS television drama "Blue Bloods", playing Assistant District Attorney Erin Reagan. In November 2009, she signed a deal with Garnier to appear in television and print advertising promoting their skincare products (Ultra-Lift). Moynahan lived with screenwriter Scott Rosenberg from 2001 to 2003. She dated NFL quarterback Tom Brady from 2004 until December 14, 2006. Her representative confirmed their split to "People" in December 2006, stating that they had "amicably ended their three-year relationship." On February 18, 2007, Moynahan's representative confirmed to "People" that she was more than three months pregnant, and that Brady was the father. On August 22, 2007, she gave birth to son John Edward Thomas (JET) Moynahan. In a July 2008 interview in "Harper's Bazaar", Moynahan discussed her willingness as a single mother to raise her son. Despite media reports that Moynahan and Brady had an acrimonious relationship, it was revealed that the two have maintained a civil relationship since the birth of their son. In 2010, she moved from Pacific Palisades, California to New York when she was cast as ADA Erin Reagan on "Blue Bloods". She began dating director McG in late 2010. On October 17, 2015, she married businessman Andrew Frankel at a ceremony in the Hamptons. Frankel has three sons from a previous relationship.

2018 Newham London Borough Council election The 2018 Newham London Borough Council election was held on 3 May 2018 to elect members of Newham London Borough Council in England. This was on the same day as other local elections. Elections were held for the Mayor of Newham and for all 60 seats on the council. The Labour Party candidate Rokhsana Fiaz won the mayoral election. Labour candidates won all 60 seats on the council, as they did in 2014 and 2010. The Labour Party won 67% of the vote and all 60 seats for the third election in a row.

William Henderson (Canadian politician) William James Orton Henderson MBE (13 October 1916 – 15 May 2006) was a Liberal party member of the House of Commons of Canada. He was born in Empress, Alberta and became a soldier, barrister, lawyer and Supreme Court of Ontario judge. He studied at Queen's University and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1938. In 1942, he was formally installed as a lawyer after graduating from Osgoode Hall Law School. During this time, he also served in the Canadian Forces from 1939, including some service in World War II, joining the Royal Canadian Corps of Signals in 1942 before his discharge in 1946. He remained a reservist until 1952. He was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) for his work in re-establishing a functioning judicial system in the Netherlands following World War II. Henderson was first elected at the Kingston City riding in the 1949 general election.

Ian Carmichael on stage, screen and radio The English actor and comedian Ian Carmichael OBE (1920–2010) performed in many mediums of light entertainment, including theatre, radio, television and film. His career spanned from 1939 until his death in 2010. According to Brian McFarlane, writing for "The Encyclopedia of British Film", Carmichael "epitomises the good-natured, undemanding pleasures of '50s British cinema". Carmichael made his professional stage debut in 1939 while he was studying at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art; his role was as a robot in the science fiction play "R.U.R.", which lasted for only a week. His studies were interrupted by the Second World War, and he was commissioned into the Royal Armoured Corps; he also joined an entertainment unit, 30 Corps Theatrical Pool, for which he produced twenty shows. At the end of the war he returned to professional acting, and in 1947 he took a role in "She Wanted a Cream Front Door", which ran in the West End for nine months. He continued to perform in the theatre throughout the rest of his career, largely in the UK, but also in productions in Canada, South Africa and the United States. In 1947 Carmichael made his debut on television in the revue "New Faces". He continued to work in television throughout his life and, according to McFarlane, achieved considerable success with P.G. Wodehouse's "The World of Wooster" in 1966–67, in which he played Bertie Wooster, and as Lord Peter Wimsey between 1972 and 1975. Carmichael made his radio debut in 1947 in the BBC Home Service's "Saturday Night Theatre", and continued to appear throughout his career. Included in his output were dramatisations of the Wimsey novels and Wodehouse's works, this time as Galahad Threepwood in the Blandings Castle stories. In 1948 Carmichael made his cinematic debut in an uncredited role in "Bond Street", and went on to establish a film career in the 1950s when he appeared in films by the Boulting brothers, including "Private's Progress" (1956), "Lucky Jim" (1957), "Brothers in Law" (1957), "Happy Is the Bride" (1958) and "I'm All Right Jack" (1959). On Carmichael's death in 2010 Dennis Barker, writing for "The Guardian", observed that "what made Carmichael notable was that he could play fool parts in a way that did not cut the characters completely off from human sympathy: a certain dignity was always maintained."

Ruan, who may be identical with Cellach hua Ruanada.

Brígida Walker Brígida Walker Guerra (August 22, 1863 – 1942) was a Chilean teacher. Born in Copiapó in 1863, she was the daughter of Juan Walker Fleming and Rosario Guerra. She obtained her early education in Valparaíso at the Girls' High School and later graduated from the Teachers' Normal School of Santiago in 1889. She made her career as a teacher and was honoured by various public appointments. In 1905, she became a member of the committee to organize the Teachers' Normal School of Valparaiso. In 1911, she served on the committee which was sent to Buenos Aires and Montevideo to study normal schools. From 1908 to 1913, she was a member of the Council of Primary School Education. She then became the head of the First Teachers' Normal School for Women of Santiago. She wrote on educational subjects and her works include: "Curso de Pedagojta", translated from the French, 1917; "Desarrollo del Programa Moral", 1919; "Detalle del Programa de Educacion Cívica", 1919.

This procedure has been extensively used for ligand-G protein–coupled receptors (GPCR) and their complexes. IMPs include transporters, linkers, channels, receptors, enzymes, structural membrane-anchoring domains, proteins involved in accumulation and transduction of energy, and proteins responsible for cell adhesion. Classification of transporters can be found in Transporter Classification Database. As an example of the relationship between the IMP (in this case the bacterial phototrapping pigment, bacteriorhodopsin) and the membrane formed by the phospholipid bilayer is illustrated below. In this case the integral membrane protein spans the phospholipid bilayer seven times. The part of the protein that is embedded in the hydrophobic regions of the bilayer are alpha helical and composed of predominantly hydrophobic amino acids. The C terminal end of the protein is in the cytosol while the N terminal region is in the outside of the cell. A membrane that contains this particular protein is able to function in photosynthesis. Examples of integral membrane proteins:

Holiday Inn Garden Court Holiday Inn Garden Court was a 3 star brand of Holiday Inn 4 star hotels. Holiday Inn Garden Court hotels were only in Europe and South Africa. The first Holiday Inn Garden Court opened in 1989, in Warrington, Cheshire. The Tsogo Sun hotel company bought the Garden Court name in 2005, for use within South Africa. After the 2007 rebranding and relaunch of Holiday Inn, the remaining Holiday Inn Garden Court properties either converted into Holiday Inn hotels or left the Intercontinental Hotels Group completely.

"Arkansas Grass" reached No. 7 in December 1969. Midway through the recording of the LP, which was released under the title "Fool's Gold", drummer Don Lebler (The Avengers) replaced Doug Lavery. Axiom left Australia for the UK in April 1970 after signing a publishing deal from Leeds Music, with the local music press reporting that they had received record deal offers from both Apple Records and the Decca label. As a parting gift they left their second single, "A Little Ray of Sunshine", inspired by the birth of the child of a couple that the group knew – not by the birth of Cadd or Mudie's child, as has often been incorrectly reported. The single reached No. 5 in April 1970. "A Little Ray of Sunshine" has become one of the Australian songs most often still played on radio and was even celebrated with its own stamp in Australia Post's 1998 Australian Rock stamp series. In their absence the band's debut album "Fool's Gold" was released, one of the first true "albums" in Australian music. Apart from the "Arkansas Grass" single it was also one of the first attempts in Australian pop to write songs about the Australian landscape, and using Australian place names. It is also notable as one of the first Australian albums on a major label to be self-produced by the recording artist/s and also featured one of the first uses of the didgeridoo in Australian popular music. The songs were all of high quality as were the production values. "Fool's Gold" reached No. 18 in June and still stands as one of the best albums of the period, however it never reached its full commercial potential because Axiom were not around to promote it. A third single failed to chart. In Australia Axiom were signed to Ron Tudor's independent production company. They left Australia with Tudor's approval to try to secure a worldwide recording contract: he would not stand in their way. Although many of the songs on "Fool's Gold" featured Australian references, Brian Cadd revealed years later that the track "Ford's Bridge" had a very different origin: In England Axiom signed a three-year recording contract with Warners, cemented by a single "My Baby's Gone" produced by Shel Talmy of early Who, Kinks and Easybeats' "Friday on My Mind" fame. The band completed a second album, "If Only", recorded at the iconic Olympic Studios in London. Although some former members were later critical of what they felt was Talmy's overproduction of the record, in a 2000 interview with Richie Unterberger, Talmy still spoke highly of both group and LP: By the time the album was released the band had already broken up and as Talmy indicated, it effectively vanished without trace.

Paolo Gerometta Major General Paolo Gerometta was born in Venice on September 7, 1955 and his origins are from Anduins, a small village in the Val D’Arzino (Pordenone - Italy). Major General Paolo Gerometta is married to Mrs. Roberta Zamborlini, with two sons (Giovanni and Lorenzo). He is member of FIDAL as Master 55 runner, besides he is an amateur mountain biker. In October 22, 1974 he attended the 156th Military Academy course and in 1976 became Cavalry Officer. After completing the application school and obtaining the rank of Lieutenant, in 1978 he was assigned to the “Lancieri di Novara” 5th Tank Squadron Group at Codroipo (UD), where he covered Staff positions and also commanded several Leopard tank units at platoon and squadron levels. In 1988-1989, he attended the 113th Staff Course and was then assigned to the Army General Staff Recruitment, Status and Promotion Office. In 1991-1992, he attended the 113th advanced Staff Course. From September 1993 to September 1994, he commanded the 1st Squadron Group of the 4th “Genova Cavalleria” Regiment. Moreover, he was at the head of a Squadron Group belonging to the “Pozzuolo del Friuli Brigade” within Operation “Vespri Siciliani” . At the end of this mission, he was reassigned to the Army General Staff Recruitment, Status and Promotion Office, where he was in charge of: - the section liaising with the organizations representing military personnel; - the section dealing with Recruitment, Status and Promotion issues of NCOs, Volunteers, as well as with female recruitment and the so-called “Army professionalization”. On July 1, 1998, he was promoted to the rank of Colonel and on September 11, 1999, became the 90th Commander of the “Savoia Cavalleria” Regiment. In such a position, he commanded Task Force “Sauro” (“Savoia Cavalleria” Regiment plus 3rd Tank battalion), within Operation “Joint Guardian” in Kosovo from October 26, 1999 to March 8, 2000. From September 2000 to September 2004 he was Chief of the Defence General Staff Recruitment, Status and Promotion Office, dealing with legislative matters concerning the professionalization of the military instrument. Moreover, from December 2001 to September 2004 he was a member of the Consultative Committee to the Chief of the Defence General Staff and to the Commanding General of the Guardia di Finanza (Finance Police), as regards female military service.

The former was deemed to be of such high quality as to command a price that the University News could not afford. Highet himself bought "Sorcery" for 25/- and had it framed, remarking in correspondence with Frank, that he thought this drawing 'underpriced'. "Somnia" and "Vana Spes" were also enthusiastically received, but not published as the magazine, intended as a commercial venture, ran into publishing problems. Frank continued to illustrate the GUM after graduating. After university, Frank qualified as a teacher at Jordanhill Teacher Training College. She also undertook part-time study at the Glasgow School of Art (GSA) for several years, taking the General Course in sessions 27/28 and 28/29, and courses in Design (29/30) and Drawing and Painting (31/32 and 32/33). Her teachers in the latter included Dugdale, Keppie, Richmond, Gauld, Whitelaw Hamilton, Anningbell, Forrester Wilson and Gray. She may also have taken Calligraphy. Frank won the GSA evening class prize in 1929 for "Sorcery" (the drawing that was bought by the former editor of GUM) and the James McBey prize for wood engraving in 1934. She attended further courses at the GSA in 35/36, 37/39 and 43/66. In 1939, Frank married Lionel Levy. Her works during the years of the World War II were reflective of the mood of the time, as a Jew, and with brothers in the British Army these years were long and dark, and there were many illustrations of grim, gaunt figures, reflecting the plight of the refugees. It was also during this period that Frank began clay modelling at the Glasgow School of Art under Paul Zunterstein and Benno Schotz who encouraged her work, and sculpture became her main passion. Although she had works published in the Glasgow University Magazine which brought with it involvement with the wider university community, during her later career, Frank's work was to reach a wide audience including many in Glasgow's Jewish community where she received many appeals to donate art to help with fundraising appeals. This involvement can be characterised by focusing on the years between 1948 and 1969, in which Frank either donated or lent her artwork for charitable and fundraising purposes for Jewish organisations. Throughout her career, Frank assisted in any areas possible to help various organisations raise money, whether this was designing brochures or lending her work to help fundraise. Frank and her husband Lionel Levy were also members of the Glasgow committee of the Friends of the Hebrew University.

Pennington, Texas Pennington is an unincorporated community in Houston and Trinity counties in the U.S. state of Texas. Originally known as Tyler or Tyler's Prairie, Pennington is located off U.S. Highway 287 near the Davy Crockett National Forest. Although it is unincorporated, it has a post office with a zip code of 75856. Pennington was founded by Jose Martin Predo, AF Westall, and Daniel Dailey in 1835 on a land grant By 1859, Dailey was the sole owner of the land grant. In 1866, Dailey began to plot out the land grant, what is today Pennington, then solely in Trinity County, named after Hill Pennington, the town's first merchant. The post office opened in 1883. The peak of the town was around this time as it was the county seat, with a population of over 1500. However, the seat was moved to nearby Groveton, along with the fact that Pennington had no railroad, which lead to the decline in 1882. Pennington was briefly an incorporated town in 1901, but unincorporated in 1904. From then to now, Pennington became a quiet farm town, although, unlike most rural towns that decline, Pennington still has a post office. By the 1990s a small portion of Pennington extended to Houston County. The population is 67 as of 2000. The Groveton Independent School District Serves students on both the Houston and Trinity county sides of the community.

Old Burnside Yard Old Burnside Yard (Chicago, Illinois) is a coach yard for suburban rail coaches, once owned by the Illinois Central Railroad. Thomas Wilson was a locomotive engineer at the I.C.R.R. at Burnside, beginning in 1888. The site is now the location of Chicago State University.

Wheelwright (surname) Wheelwright is an English surname. Notable people with the surname include:

House Order of Fidelity The House Order of Fidelity (German: "Hausorden der Treue") is a dynastic order of the Margraviate of Baden. It was established by Charles III William, Margrave of Baden-Durlach as a reward for merit and to mark the laying of the foundation stone of his residence at Karlsruhe Palace. As was customary at that time, it was originally named in French as the "Ordre de la Fidélité", before later being renamed the "Orden der Treue" and finally in 1840 the "Hausorden der Treue". Its motto was "Fidelitas" (Latin for "Fidelity"), which is also part of Karlsruhe's coat of arms. The order was founded at the building site of Karlsruhe Palace on 17 June 1715 and later the same day, the palace's foundation stone was laid – this was also the city of Karlsruhe's foundation date. In the city's early years until around 1732, the city's main streets were named after knights of the order, at the suggestion of one of the founding knights and one of the "obervogts" or city guards, Johann Christian von Günzer, who also suggested that "Fidelitas" be used on the city's coat of arms. On 8 May 1803, Charles Frederick, Margrave of Baden added the class of Commander to the order. After Baden was promoted to a Grand Duchy in 1806, it became one of Baden's highest orders. From 1814, it returned to being a single-class order. From 17 January 1840, it was made the highest order in Baden and renamed the "Hausorden der Treue". By a statute of 17 June 1840, it was expanded back into two classes and reserved for princes of the grand ducal house, foreign sovereigns and higher statesmen with the title of "Excellency". In 1902, the Princess Cross class was added, which was reserved for princesses born in the grand ducal house or who had married into it. Even after the monarchies of Germany were abolished, it was awarded as a dynastic order by the House of Baden. Its star consists of an eight-point Maltese cross with small golden balls on its tips, gold "C"s (after its founder) in the corners and a suspension loop attached to a crown on the top arm of the cross.

Like the previous 2018 tournament, the pairings for the two play-offs will be determined by an open draw on an unknown date. Intercontinental play-offs are played as home-and-away ties. Qualification tournaments generally consist of a number of stages, made up of groups or knock-out ties. In all group tournaments, three points are awarded for a win, one for a draw, and none for a loss. FIFA has set the order of the tie-breakers for teams that finish level on points: Where teams are still not able to be separated, the following tie-breakers are used: Where teams are still equal, then a play-off on neutral ground, with extra time and penalties if necessary will be played if FIFA deems such a play-off able to be fitted within the coordinated international match calendar. If this is not deemed feasible, then the result will be determined by fair play points and then the drawing of lots. Note that this order of tie-breaker application has not always been applied. While it was used in the 2010 qualifiers, the qualification for the 2006 World Cup used the head-to-head comparison prior to goal difference (although this system was – where applicable – used in the 2006 finals themselves). If these rules had applied in 2006, then Nigeria would have qualified rather than Angola. Most knock-out qualifiers (such as the inter-confederation play-offs and many preliminary ties) are played over two legs. The team that scores a greater aggregate number of goals qualifies. Away goals rule applies. If these rules fail to determine the winner, extra time and penalty shootouts are used. Occasionally – usually when one entrant lacks adequate facilities to host international matches – ties are played over a single leg, in which case matches level after 90 minutes will go to extra time and then to a penalty shootout if required. Alternatively, "home" matches can be played in neutral countries, or occasionally one team will host both matches. In the latter case the visiting team will still be considered as the "home" team for one of the legs – which may determine which side advances under the away goals rule, as occurred in CONCACAF qualification in 2010.

In the UK, interventional radiology was approved as a sub-specialty of clinical radiology in 2010. While many countries have an interventional radiology society, there is also the European-wide Cardiovascular and Interventional Radiological Society of Europe, whose aim is to support teaching, science, research and clinical practice in the field by hosting meetings, educational workshops and promoting patient safety initiatives. Furthermore, the Society provides an examination, the European Board of Interventional Radiology (EBIR), which is a highly valuable qualification in interventional radiology based on the European Curriculum and Syllabus for IR.

Horst and graben In geology, horst and graben refer to regions that lie between normal faults and are either higher or lower than the area beyond the faults. A horst represents a block pushed upward relative to the blocks on either side by the faulting, and a graben is a block generally long compared to its width that has been lowered relative to the blocks on either side due to the faulting. Horst and graben are formed when normal faults of opposite dip occur in pair with parallel strike lines. Horst and graben are always formed together. Graben are usually represented by low-lying areas such as rifts and river valleys whereas horsts represent the ridges between or on either side of these valleys. The Condroz and Ardennes region of Wallonia are good examples of a succession of horst and graben. The Satpura Range is a horst in India and is flanked by Narmada Graben in the north and much smaller but parallel Tapi Graben in the south.

Meanwhile, a police operation is taking place on the construction site, as the police prostitute has told Philipps story. The forensics found in the foundation of the plastic bags that were cemented by Kümmel, Kalle and Horst after Marek's accident. However, the bags contain only several cans of used oil and not, as assumed, the dismembered corpse of Marek. The construction site is then closed by the authorities. Kümmel, Kalle and Horst are hired by Ernst Wiesenkamp, Werner's brother, but released shortly thereafter. Meanwhile, Werner Wiesenkamp plans to mount the aerial bomb from the construction site under his sports plane and "put it on his roof" for his brother. Although Kümmel, Kalle, Horst, Astrid and Philipp can successfully prevent this project, they do not, however, detonate the bomb when handling the excavator. The explosion uncovers a disused mining tunnel that leads from Werner Wiesenkamp's construction site to the adjacent construction site of Ernst Wiesenkamp. Caraway, Kalle, Horst, Philipp and Werner unceremoniously tear in the old mining pillars. Back in the daylight, they discover that the topping-out ceremony is on Ernst Wiesenkamp's construction site, and Werner tries to stop his brother. However, Ernst can not be impressed, and when the straightening tree is lowered, the shell of the house collapses. Therefore, the contract for the establishment of the kindergarten not serious, but to the company "Marek and Partner": Werner Wiesenkamp has reconciled with Marek, who has become rich in the meantime by stock trading. Both have allied themselves professionally, whereby Werners construction company is rehabilitated. Philipp and Astrid are happy together, while Kümmel, Kalle and Horst work again at Werner Wiesenkamp.

Stróże Stróże may refer to the following places in Poland:

But going to touch one of the boxes, he found it fragile and it crumbled easily, showering him with the bones of a long-deceased Indian. The boxes contained the bones of Squamish people and when Morton made enquries with the chief of the tribe, he was told that the island had been the site of a massacre in which some 200 tribesmen had been killed. Morton quickly changed his mind about buying the island. The land originally known as the Brickmaker's Claim was later renamed "New Liverpool" by investors keen to develop the area. The Greenhorns tried to sell the land as lots, claiming New Liverpool would soon be a major city, but initially they had had no success. In 1886, they were persuaded to donate one third of the property to the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) as an incentive for them to build a railway through to Coal Harbour, hoping that this might bring people to the area to buy the lots. By the time CPR had made it to Gastown, however, the "Three Greenhorns" had parted ways, feeling that they had been cheated. Morton went to California in search of gold, and Brighouse went to farm in Richmond. Hailstone had sold his interest to Brighouse for a $20 gold piece, several sacks of flour worth $5 and an Indian pony with a string halter worth $25, and returned to England. Entrepreneur John McDougall was contracted to clear a large part of the Three Greenhorns' "Liverpool Estate." He was known as "Chinese McDougall" because the Chinese labourers he used to do this. But in February 1887 the Chinese workers were attacked by an angry mob who burned their homes and forced them to leave town. In 1887, the lots began to sell, with prices from $350 to $1,000, as people realised the potential of the area. With CPR building rail lines, a hotel was going up, roads were being laid through the area plus the establishment of Stanley Park, lots began to move quickly. By 1888, the area was gaining respectability and had swiftly become an attractive investment to wealthy and elite buyers with fine views across Burrard Inlet and a reasonable distance from the smelly warehouses of Gastown. The West End grew up on the Brickmaker's Claim as "high class" residential housing, although this declined with the development of Shaugnessy by the CPR in 1911. Today, Vancouver's art-deco Marine Building marks the site of the Greenhorns’ log cabin.

Casa Romantica was purchased by the San Clemente Redevelopment Agency in 1989, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 27, 1991. For the next several years, its proposed use was debated, but a city council vote in November 2001 determined that the landmark would be designated as a cultural center with a mixture of public and private funding. The vote was swayed by a $1.25M anonymous donation from the Orange County Community Foundation that earmarked the funds for use in a cultural arts or educational center. Following a $3.6M renovation, Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens opened its doors to the public in 2003. Today, Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens provides programs for all ages in arts, music, history, horticulture and literature. As the epicenter of arts and culture in south Orange County, the cultural center produces over 60 concerts, workshops, classes, recitals, lectures, and events per year. Several of its programs have been critically acclaimed by the regional press, including its unique Classical Music Festival and Academy and its specially-commissioned rendition of the Shakespearean play "Hamlet". Casa Romantica is a member of the American Horticultural Society, admission to which enables free admission to a network of 300 gardens in the United States, Canada, the Cayman Islands, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The 2.5 acres of gardens are an example of coastal landscaping that includes some of the original plantings made by Ole Hanson in 1927. Also included in the Garden is a display of Native American plants used by the Acjachmen Indians. Casa Romantica is led by its Executive Director, Amy Behrens.

New immigrants tend to experience higher levels of segregation than immigrants that have lived in the host country for a while. Once their old neighborhood has been gentrified, many of the residents are forced to relocate, if they have not already done so. When hunting for a new residence, African Americans will more than likely encounter discrimination on some level. Audits performed by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development and a later Housing Development Study suggest that if realtors have a chance to discriminate, they usually do. These studies analyzed the number of cases where whites were given more information about available units or financing options or shown extra units in proportion to African Americans. The results showed that whites were systematically favored for both rental and sales units throughout metropolitan areas in the United States. Racial steering was also taken into account during these audits, and it was shown through the results that African Americans were shown homes in areas that had more minorities, lower home values, or lower median incomes that the homes that were shown to European Americans, even if their economic position was the same. It was shown that about one in every three encounters, African Americans were systematically steered to these non-European American neighborhoods. This segregation is not self-imposed. That is, African Americans do not prefer to live in neighborhoods that are overwhelmingly Black. Survey evidence from a Detroit Area Survey from 1976 shows that African Americans strongly favor the desegregation of the United States, with the overall ideal neighborhood being 50% black and 50% white. Whites, on the other hand, favor neighborhood composition that is dominated by whites. In the same survey, about one-quarter of the whites surveyed said they would feel uncomfortable if their neighborhood exceeded 8% Black. Once the neighborhood reached 21% Black, almost half of the whites surveyed said they would feel uncomfortable. One of the important social effects on the individual that results from residential segregation is the influence on behavior. Segregated communities tend to slow the rate of assimilation, especially in the ability to speak English, which is considered a primary aspect of assimilating in the United States. The ability to speak English has been shown to result in the increased rate of desegregation in communities. Another behavioral influence of residential segregation is the effect on social networks created. Friendships and marriages tend to occur at a higher probability among people living in close proximities. In other words, people who are spatially separate are less likely to form lasting relationships. A negative behavioral influence of residential segregation is the perpetuation of violence. Specifically with gang activity, the higher the level of segregation, the greater the density of altercations between rival gangs.

Sai Wan War Cemetery Sai Wan War Cemetery is a military cemetery located in Chai Wan, Hong Kong which was built in 1946. The cemetery was created to commemorate soldiers of Hong Kong Garrison who perished during both the First World War and the Second World War. According to the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC), the commemorative graves/plaques of 914 soldiers from Undivided India are grouped in 3 memorial locations within the Sai Wan cemetery complex : 104 Indian soldiers whose tombstones are located on the slopes of Sai Wan Cemetery, 287 more Indian soldiers interred at Sai Wan Memorial while a further 118 Indian soldiers whose remains were cremated according to their religious customs are inscribed on commemorative plaques at the "Sai Wan Cremation Memorial". The Sai Wan War Cemetery contains the graves of 228 Canadians. On 8 December 1941 – less than eight hours after the attack on Pearl Harbor – Japanese forces launched an invasion into Hong Kong, then a British Crown colony. The invasion started a lesser-known chapter of World War II when Allied forces – mainly British, Indian and Canadian – began the futile defence of British Hong Kong. Records now show that the territory had been deemed militarily undefendable by the War Office. Even so, the garrison was ordered to put up a robust resistance and six infantry battalions were tasked with the defence of Hong Kong. Several locations including Shing Mun Redoubt along the Gin Drinkers' Line, Wong Nai Chung Gap, Mount Butler, shores bordering Lye Moon Passage, Devil's Peak and Stanley Fort saw fierce combat which resulted in overwhelming casualties among Allied Troops. The Japanese forces from Shenzhen easily crossed the Sham Chun River, and entered into the territory through the Mainland in the north. The three British Army battalions manning the Gin Drinkers Line were the 2nd Battalion, Royal Scots to the west, the 2/14th Battalion, Punjab Regiment in the centre and the 5/7th Battalion, Rajput Regiment to the east. The 5/7 Rajput of the Indian Army bore the heaviest casualty losses amongst all defending combatant battalions engaged in the Battle of Hong Kong: 156 killed in action or died from wounds, 113 missing, and 193 wounded. The 2/14 Punjab of the Indian Army also bore heavy losses: 55 killed in action or died from wounds, 69 missing, and 161 wounded. Hong Kong and Singapore Royal Artillery, which was raised with troops recruited from Undivided India, also suffered heavy casualties during the Battle of Hong Kong and are commemorated with names inscribed on panels at the entrance to Sai Wan War Cemetery: 144 killed, 45 missing and 103 wounded.

Acca Larentia Acca Larentia or Acca Larentina was a mythical woman, later goddess, in Roman mythology whose festival, the Larentalia, was celebrated on December 23. In one mythological tradition (that of Licinius Macer, et al.), she was the wife of the shepherd Faustulus, and therefore the adoptive mother of Romulus and Remus, whom she is said to have saved after they were thrown into the Tiber on the orders of Amulius. She had twelve sons, and on the death of one of them Romulus took his place, and with the remaining eleven founded the college of the Arval brothers (Fratres Arvales). She is therefore identified with the Dea Dia of that collegium. The flamen Quirinalis acted in the role of Romulus (deified as Quirinus) to perform funerary rites for his foster mother. Another tradition holds that Larentia was a beautiful girl of notorious reputation, roughly the same age as Romulus and Remus, during the reign of Ancus Marcius in the 7th century BCE. She was awarded to Hercules as a prize in a game of dice by the guardian of his temple, and locked in it with his other prize, a feast. When the god no longer had need of her, he advised her to marry the first man she met as she stepped out that morning, who turned out to be a wealthy Etruscan named Carutius (or Tarrutius, according to Plutarch). Larentia later inherited all his property and bequeathed it to the Roman people. Ancus, in gratitude for this, allowed her to be buried in the Velabrum, and instituted an annual festival, the Larentalia, at which sacrifices were offered to the Lares. Plutarch explicitly states that this Larentia was a different person from the Larentia who was married to Faustulus, although other writers, such as Licinius Macer, relate their stories as belonging to the same individual. Yet another tradition holds that Larentia was neither the wife of Faustulus nor the consort of Hercules, but a prostitute called "lupa" by the shepherds (literally "she-wolf", but colloquially "courtesan"), and who left the fortune she amassed through sex work to the Roman people. Whatever may be thought of the contradictory accounts of Acca Larentia, it seems clear that she was of Etruscan origin, and connected with the worship of the Lares, from which her name may or may not be derived.

It was at this period that he subjugated the king of Tanjore, although he did not annex his territory, and he compelled them to cede Karaikal to the French. On 14 February 1739, Karaikal became a French colony. Unable to help themselves against the Europeans and the subjects of the Great Mogul, the king of Tanjore and Vangaru Tirumala called for the assistance of the Marathas of Satara in Maharashtra. These Maratha of the Carnatic had their own grievance against the Muslims of Arcot, with whom Chanda Sahib still was identified, because of long-delayed payment of the "chouth", or one-fourth of their revenues, which they had promised in return for the withdrawal of the Marathas from their country and the discontinuation of their incursions. These Marathas of Tanjore also were encouraged to attempt reprisals by the Nizam of Hyderabad, who — jealous of the increasing power of the Nawab and careless of the loyalty due to co-religionists — gladly would have seen his dangerous subordinate brought to the ground. Early in 1740, therefore, the Marathas appeared in the south with a vast army, and defeated and killed the Nawab of Arcot (Dost Ali Khan) in the pass of Damalcheruvu, now in Chittoor district. Then they came to an understanding with his son, the Safdar Ali Khan, recognised him as Nawab, in return, Khan accepted Maratha suzerainty and undertook to pay Marathas, an indemnity of 40 lakh rupees and a regular Chauth. With the Nawab of Arcot greatly weakened and Chanda Sahib was captured and imprisoned by the Marathas in the siege of Tiruchirappalli (1741) led by general Raghuji Bhonsle under the orders of Chhattrapati Shahu. In 1741, the Travancore-Dutch War had broken out, during the course of the conflict it was the policy of the subjects of the Great Mogul to support European mercantile presence in the Indian subcontinent. After the death of the Nizam of Hyderabad, a civil war for succession broke out in south between Nasir Jung and Muzaffar Jung. Also, Chanda Sahib began to conspire against the Nawab Anwaruddin Muhammed Khan in Carnatic. This led to the Second Carnatic War.

Alsatian Orphan The Alsatian Orphan / L'Orpheline Alsacienne is a sculpture made by the French artist Auguste Rodin (1840-1917). In the beginning of his career, Rodin made decorative pieces. This piece was created during this phase. This bust represents a girl with her head slightly bent to the side. Her childish face expresses a soft melancholy. Her veil is characteristic of the province of Alsace, northern France which was lost in the Franco-Prussian War in 1870. The bust was described as ""L'exemplaire"" with her veil of silk arranged like a butterfly spreading its wings. The sculpture is considered one of Rodin's first big successes, and exhibited on several occasions between 1871 and 1884 and in several formats, including marble and terracotta. There are several versions of this work by Auguste Rodin. Two of them are in exhibition at the Soumaya Museum in Mexico City.

Made of Hate Made of Hate is a Polish melodic death metal band, originally from capital city - Warsaw, Poland. The band started on the grounds of previous metal band, Archeon, which Michał "Mike" Kostrzyński and Tomek Grochowski had created. Made Of Hate is well known in Poland for their stage appearances with Iron Maiden, Motörhead and Arch Enemy. Made of Hate was created in early 2007. Band members had known each other from their previous metal act called Archeon. Before the Made Of Hate era, musicians played countless shows across Poland and got a pretty decent recognition. Yet, the decision was made to leave the old flag and have a brand new start with a fresh and revised music. Michał Kostrzyński, as a composer and songwriter to both Archeon and Made Of Hate, decided to leave keyboards behind and focus more on guitar work that he had become known for. After the decision was made, brand new band - Made Of Hate, headed to the Zed Studio to record their first album entitled Bullet In Yout Head. Band promptly recorded the album and started to look for a partner to release their music. It didn't last long, since they got a call from AFM Records. The label signed the band and from now on Made Of Hate became a newcomer with album ready to be released. The release of the band, which took place in February 2008, was a success to both band and label. Made Of Hate started to appear on the news, radio and music television around the world and quite fast they got very warm welcome from metal world. In fact, album received very good reviews from which one had a little more than a great impact. Made Of Hate was handpicked by Iron Maiden and Bruce Dickinson for his radio show at BBC. Dickinson played their music several times over few weeks and band rapidly got new fans all around the world. Made Of Hate got recognition and became known for Kostrzyński's shredding, his exquisite guitar lines and solos combined with heavy riffs and pounding drum lines. The promotion of band in 2008 was splendid and the cherry on the top was an event that took place in Summer 2008. Made Of Hate was again handpicked to direct support Iron Maiden on their show in Warsaw, Poland. Band played their first show as Made Of Hate on the Gwardia Stadium for 30 000 fans just before Iron Maiden. The show was great and fans loved Made Of Hate. There was also a little incident on the stage.

Uniforms of the Royal Navy The uniforms of the Royal Navy have evolved gradually since the first uniform regulations for officers were issued in 1748. The predominant colours of Royal Navy uniforms are navy blue and white. Since reforms in 1997 male and female ratings have worn the same ceremonial uniform. RN uniforms have served as the template for many maritime uniforms throughout the world, especially in the British Empire and Commonwealth. The uniforms of the Royal Naval Reserve, Royal Fleet Auxiliary, the Maritime Volunteer Service, the Sea Cadet Corps, the Navy branch of the Combined Cadet Force and the Volunteer Cadet Corps as well as modern uniforms of Trinity House, the Royal Australian Navy, the Royal New Zealand Navy and Royal Malaysian Navy are virtually identical to RN uniforms, with the exception of flashes at shoulder height and on rank slides. Royal Canadian Navy uniforms are also very similar, though the traditional sailor suit is no longer used and some distinctly Canadian rank insignia and titles are used; i.e., master seaman. Uniform regulations for officers were first issued by Lord Anson in 1748, and remained unchanged for nearly twenty years. Reportedly, the officers themselves advocated its adoption, as they "wished to be recognised as being in the service of the Crown." The "best uniform", consisting of an embroidered blue coat with white facings, worn unbuttoned with white breeches and stockings, was worn for ceremonial occasions; the "working rig" was a simpler, less embroidered uniform for day-to-day use. In 1767 the best uniform was abolished and replaced by the working rig, with a simpler "undress" uniform for day-to-day use. By 1795, as a result of the French Revolutionary Wars, a plain blue "undress" coat had been introduced for everyday use, and epaulettes were officially introduced. By 1846, all officers wore epaulettes. The white facings came and went over the years, briefly becoming scarlet (1830-1843). Though stripes of lace on the cuffs had been used to distinguish the different ranks of admiral since 1795, the first version of current rank insignia, consisting of stripes with a "curl" in the top one, was introduced for all officers in 1856. In 1825, the white breeches were replaced by trousers for officers serving in the United Kingdom, although the practice of wearing white trousers with naval uniforms (popularly known as “Wei-Wei Rig”) continued for officers serving overseas (e.g. in the West Indies and China) until 1939.

Karel Kuhn Karel Kuhn (born 14 September 1915) was a Czech basketball player. He competed in the men's tournament at the 1936 Summer Olympics.

Over the following days the 10th Guards Army managed to clear the German defenders from the bogs south of the Verkhita River but was finally halted at nightfall on October 26 well short of the rail station at Osintori; Sokolovskii now ordered a suspension of the offensive. 10th Guards and 31st armies had gained just 4-6km in five days of fighting at a cost of 4,787 killed and 14,315 wounded. Fighting went on well into early November in local attacks and counterattacks to improve tactical positions. A fourth effort to open the road to Orsha began on November 14. The 30th Guards was facing the 215th Infantry Regiment of the 78th Assault Division, still south of the Smolensk - Minsk highway. The attack began on November 14, following a three-and-one-half hour preparation by artillery and air attacks. A postwar account described the 10th Guards' offensive:In the face of heavy German counterattacks this proved to be the limit of the initial Soviet advance. General Sukhomlin renewed the attack on November 17 with the 15th Guards Corps, in conjunction with the 70th Rifle Corps of 31st Army and supported by two brigades of 2nd Guards Tank Corps. This split the boundary between the 78th Assault and 25th Panzergrenadiers and finally took the village of Novoe Selo, but again stalled. The battle was prolonged into early December with no more than an additional 4km being gained. Sokolovskii ceased the offensive on December 5 and withdrew 10th Guards Army into reserve. Later that month it was transferred to 2nd Baltic Front in the Velikiye Luki region; this move began on December 8 and was completed by December 31 after covering 210km. While the 7th and 19th Guards Corps each received about 5,000 replacements the 15th Guards received none. Sukhomlin requested two to three weeks to train and incorporate these new men, but the Army was ordered to return to action by January 14, 1944. On January 18 General Kuleshov was moved to the position of deputy chief of staff of 2nd Baltic Front; he would eventually become the commander of 7th Guards Rifle Corps. Mikhail Aleksandrovich Isaev took over command of the division; he would be promoted to the rank of major general on June 3. 10th Guards Army had been deployed into the salient northwest of Nevel and south of Pustoshka, between the 3rd and 4th Shock Armies, with the intention of helping to eliminate the German-held salient north of Nevel with its base at Novosokolniki.

Steven MacLean (footballer) Steven MacLean (born 23 August 1982) is a retired Scottish footballer who played as a forward. He is currently coaching at St Johnstone. MacLean has previously played for Rangers, Scunthorpe United, Sheffield Wednesday, Cardiff City, Plymouth Argyle, Aberdeen, Oxford United, Yeovil Town, Cheltenham Town, St Johnstone and Raith Rovers. He also represented the Scotland national under-21 football team. He began his senior football career at Rangers, followed by a loan spell at Third Division outfit Scunthorpe United, scoring 25 goals. Despite this, Rangers manager Alex McLeish deemed that he was not "a first team prospect" and placed him on the transfer list. On 7 July 2004, MacLean joined Football League One club Sheffield Wednesday for an undisclosed fee, believed to be around £125,000, and signed a three-year deal. He scored 20 goals in his first season, including a hat-trick against fellow South Yorkshire side Doncaster Rovers, Wednesday's first away hat-trick for 32 years. He was the first Sheffield Wednesday player to hit the 20 goal mark in one season since Mark Bright in 1994. He also scored a crucial penalty under pressure in the play-off final to level the scores at 2-2. Wednesday went on to defeat their opponents Hartlepool United 4-2 after extra time. MacLean sustained a broken leg on the eve of the club's Championship campaign in August 2005, but returned in the latter part of the season to score two penalties for Wednesday, first at home to rival club Sheffield United in a 2–1 defeat and then against league champions Reading, which earned the Owls a 1–1 draw. MacLean sustained another injury setback in August 2006 after scoring in a 1–1 draw against Burnley, but made a comeback a month later in the defeat to Derby County. He finished the 2006–07 season with 13 goals from 22 first team starts and 22 substitute appearances, making him the club's joint top goal scorer for the season with Deon Burton and showing signs of returning to the form in which he played with in the 2004–05 season. On 22 June 2007, it was announced that MacLean had signed for Sheffield Wednesday's Championship rivals Cardiff City, after failing to agree a new contract at Hillsborough. The move was a surprise to many Owls fans as MacLean was rumoured to have declared his willingness and desire to remain at the club.

According to these effects, the population on each patch can die out. If this happens, it can only be re-established by colonisation from another patch. The further away the patch is, the harder it is to colonize for these poor fliers, and therefore the less likely the recolonisation will be. Thus two main factors affect the likelihood of long-term survival: patch areas (affecting population size and therefore extinction probability), and distance between patches (influencing how easy it is to recolonise a patch). Bedouins came to St Katherine 1500 years ago. Now there are about 4500 Bedouins living around the town. Most families keep a small herd of goats and sheep. These herds are valuable resources for their livelihood because goats and sheep provide them with meat and milk, as well as wool, hair and skin. Herds are always in need of fodder. Because of the arid climate of St Katherine and the high price of fodder, grazing is the only choice. In the past, the Bedouins had developed a system for rotating grazing pressure in order to protect plants. This system is called "helf", and is an agreement between themselves on banning grazing in certain wadis for specified periods of time. Today, this system has fallen into disuse, threatening many plant species. There is also a change in the lifestyle of St Katherine Bedouin since their population multiplied. Their lifestyle has switched from pastoral semi-nomadism to one that is largely sedentary, and this change has altered the pattern of grazing pressure. It has been demonstrated by Mike James and Martin Hoyle that the overall pattern of grazing pressure is affected by two main factors: altitude, and distance from villages. Usually the higher wadis and the ones far from villages get less grazing. Grazing pressure adversely affects the health of plants. Sinai thyme is a preferred plant to herds because it does not secrete toxic substances like some other plants. In fact, the current levels of grazing with the current year-to-year variation in temperature are not a serious risk to the Sinai baton blue. Increased grazing pressure together with the expected rise in temperature over the coming years would be the main cause of the extinction of this small butterfly. Hoyle and James found that even if goats ate up 60 percent of the thyme, the butterflies would be likely to survive. But when average temperatures warmed slightly above a critical threshold, the entire butterfly population would suddenly crash. Sinai is a rich area in medicinal plants, especially around the St Katherine area.

The South Group (also known as Group 3) is located upon a hill about south of the site core and is linked to it by a causeway. The South Causeway runs southwards from the eastern side of the South Plaza to the South Group. It is long and wide. It is raised above the forest floor. It unites the South and Central Plazas with the South Group. At the southern end of the causeway, at the foot of the hill supporting the South Group, is a platform that was associated with a number of monuments, including Stela 5, Monument 6 and a circular altar. Near the middle of the causeway were found the remains of Monument 13. Near the central portion, the parapet of the causeway also served to contain a small reservoir. The reservoir was prevented from overflowing onto the causeway by a drain, near to which was found an offering of six small ceramic vessels that were interred when the causeway was built in the Late Classic. The North Causeway runs northwards from the north side of the North Plaza to Group 50. It is long and wide. The causeway is raised above the forest floor. The causeway has well-preserved parapets; the eastern parapet also served to protect against flooding by the Arroyo Este stream (literally "East Stream"). Group 37 is a complex located to the east of the North Causeway. The complex was largely dated to the Late Classic, at which time there was an almost total absence of domestic activity. Combined with its position close to the North Causeway, this has led investigators to conclude that the complex served an administrative function and may have controlled access to the plazas of the site core. In the Terminal Classic its function appears to have changed and domestic activity started, represented by an increase in ceramic remains and the insertion of a Terminal Classic burial. Structure 37 is the main platform. It measures and appears to have been of some importance. The platform stands high and supports three structures. The platform was accessed via a stairway on the south side. Structure 37 was built in three distinct construction phases. The earliest of these phases dates to the Early Classic, the second phase is above the first and dates to the Late Classic. At this time one of the additional structures were built upon the platform. The third phase also dates to the Late Classic, when two further buildings were added. Occupation of Group 37 continued through the Terminal Classic into the Postclassic Period. Burial 228 was found in Structure 37, under the patio, near the top of the access stairway.

The children were raised in eastern Ohio and in upstate New York. The boys' sister, Lucina, was an educator who assisted in the founding of Drexel Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and served as its financial secretary. Their other sister, Mary Frances, married Joseph W. Mauck, who became a longtime president of Hillsdale College in Hillsdale, Michigan. Their uncle, George Harvey Ball, who shared the Ball family dedication to higher education, founded Keuka College in upstate New York in 1890. When their father became ill, the Ball brothers "found a friend and confidant" in their uncle. After the boys' father died in 1878, Uncle George provided financial support and some measure of stability. Later in life, after the Ball brothers had become wealthy businessmen, they became benefactors to their uncle's college. Lucius Lorenzo Ball (March 29, 1850 – July 22, 1932), the eldest of the brothers was born in Greensburg, Ohio. He grew up in Ohio and moved with the family to upstate New York, where he attended public schools and Canandaigua Academy at Canandaigua, New York. Lucius, whose ambition was to become a doctor, received his medical degree from the University of Buffalo in 1889, at the age of forty, and served as the house physician in Adrian Hospital in Pennsylvania before establishing a medical practice in Buffalo, New York. He moved to Muncie, Indiana, in 1894. In addition to becoming a shareholder and serving on the board of the Ball brothers' manufacturing company, Lucius practiced medicine in the Muncie community. He was a member of the Scottish Rite and the Universalist church. Lucius also retained memberships in national and state medical societies and served as medical adviser to the Western Reserve Life Insurance Company. Lucius married Sarah Rogers in 1893; they relocated from Buffalo to Muncie the following year. The couple had one daughter, Helen. Lucius remained a resident of Muncie for thirty years. Instead of constructing a new residence in Muncie as his brothers did, Lucius purchased an existing home and had it turned to face Minnetrista Boulevard. In the mid-1990s, following the restoration of Oakhurst, George's home, Lucius's residence was renovated to serve as an orientation center for the Oakhurst mansion and its gardens. William Charles Ball (August 13, 1852 – April 30, 1921) was born in Trumbull County, Ohio, grew up in upstate New York, and attended public school and Canandaigua Academy with his siblings.

He needed to be not only a theologian and an advocate for the new Connexion, but an organiser and administrator. His converts gathered in "seiadau" (fellowship meetings). Williams had to organise, and then maintain, these "seiadau" as he went around the country. Each successful visit to a new locality in turn required a new "seiat". Although he was not alone in his mission, the workload and mental burden must have been considerable. By the same token, it must have been deeply rewarding to see the community grow and thrive over the years and to reflect on the alternative life he had forsaken, as the priest of some obscure rural Anglican parish in mid-Wales. Together with Howell Harris and Daniel Rowland, William Williams "Pantycelyn" is acknowledged as a leader of the Methodist Revival in Wales in the 18th century and he is the "literary voice" par excellence of that movement. William Williams Pantycelyn was not merely an important figure in the religious life in Wales, he was also one of the most important influences on Welsh language culture, not just in his own lifetime, but on into the 19th and 20th centuries. He is particularly known as a hymn writer and his ability earned him the accolade "Y pêr ganiedydd" (The Sweet Songster) - echoing the description of King David as "the sweet psalmist of Israel" ("2 Samuel", 23:1). His literary output has been analysed in Saunders Lewis's book "Williams Pantycelyn" (1927). He wrote some of his work in English, but the great majority in his native Welsh. He published his first work in 1744: this was the first part of "Aleluia", a collection of hymns in Welsh. It was followed by further collections: He also published two collections of English hymns: Possibly his best known hymn is "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" (in English, "Lord, lead thou through the wilderness"). This has been adapted as the English-language hymn: "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" or "Guide Me, O Thou Great Redeemer". It is usually sung to the tune "Cwm Rhondda" by John Hughes. His hymns were not his only major contribution to the success of Calvinistic Methodism. He wrote two long poems on theological and religious themes: He also wrote a series of elegies in memory of various Methodist and other Christian leaders, including: Griffith Jones of Llanddowror, Howel Davies (the Pembrokeshire preacher), George Whitefield, and Daniel Rowland.

He allowed two goals on the first two shots of the game and five in the first period. He did not return from the locker room for the second period of play as the game eventually ended 7–3 in favor of the opposing Connecticut Whale. DiPietro's series of injuries during the latter part of his NHL career earned him the nickname "Rickety". On July 1, 2013, the Islanders announced that DiPietro would be placed on unconditional waivers and have the remainder of his contract bought out on a compliance. The buyout was completed 2 days later with DiPietro agreeing to be paid 2/3s of the $36 million he would have been owed over the next 8 years at a rate of $1.5 million per year over the next 16 years. DiPietro signed a professional tryout contract on October 25, 2013 with the Carolina Hurricanes' AHL affiliate, Charlotte Checkers, playing his first game 5 days later in which he stopped 25 of 29 shots in a 5–2 loss to the Grand Rapids Griffins. He was cut by the Checkers on November 26. After retiring DiPietro turned to radio hosting and is now a talk show host in New York City at ESPN 98.7. In 2019, DiPietro was named the Head Boys' Hockey Coach at the Portledge School. DiPietro made his international debut at the junior level for the United States at the 1999 IIHF World U18 Championships. He would then play in the two following World Junior Championships in 2000 and 2001, awarded in the former as the tournament's best goaltender and selected to the All-Star Team. He made his full international debut soon after his WJC experience with the United States at the 2001 World Championships. He would go on to compete for Team USA in the 2004 World Cup of Hockey and the 2005 World Championships. Along with former Islanders teammates Jason Blake and Mark Parrish, DiPietro was named to the United States national hockey team at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy, in February 2006. DiPietro was the U.S.' number one goaltender for the tournament, starting four of the team's six games. DiPietro played well, sporting a 2.28 GAA, but went 1–3 in the men's tournament.

The beauty of Lady Ripon’s woods at Nocton revived the spirit of poetry within him. He wrote his ‘Lily of the Valley’ and his ‘Old Souls,’ which, with other poems, were threaded together as 'The World’s Epitaph,' privately printed in 1866 in an edition of one hundred copies. One of these came into the hands of Rossetti, who admired it as enthusiastically is ‘Valdarno,' and the two poets met in October 1869. In Rossetti’s darkest days, when in 1872 his life was nearly terminated by laudanum, Hake rendered the greatest service. ‘He was the earthly providence of the Rossetti family,' says Mr. W. M. Rossetti. He took Dante Rossetti to his house during the wont of the crisis, afterwards accompanied him to Scotland, and consented to his own son George acting for a long time as Rossetti's companion and secretary, a position which the derangement of the patient's mental and physical health eventually rendered untenable. After 1872, Hake spent a considerable time in Italy and Germany, and, returning to England, settled near St. John's Wood, principally occupied in the composition and publication of poetry for the few, difficult rather than obscure in thought and diction, but uninviting to those who cannot appreciate mystical symbolism. In 1871 he published ‘Madeline and other Poems,’ reproducing much of ‘The World's Epitaph.' In 1872 appeared ‘Parables and Tales,‘ comprising ‘Old Souls.' In 1876 he published ‘New Symbols;' in 1879 ‘legends of the Morrow;’ in 1680 ‘Maiden Ecstasy;’ in 1863 ‘The Serpent Play,’ and in 1890 ‘The New Day,’ a collection of sonnets in the Shakespearean form. Hake's autobiography, ‘Memoirs of Eighty Years,’ was published in 1892. During the last four years of his life he was confined to his couch by a fracture of the hip, but his faculties and spirits remained unimpaired. He died on 11 January 1895. In 1839, he published a prose epic "Vales", republished in "Ainsworth's Magazine" as "Valdarno", which attracted the attention of Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Rossetti, against his habit, reviewed Hake's poems in "The Academy" http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/1744999] and the "Fortnightly Review".

Mapesbury Mapesbury is a residential area of northwest London, England. It forms one of twenty-one electoral wards of the London Borough of Brent. The ward covers parts of the Kilburn and Cricklewood areas. Mapesbury ward is bounded to the north by Dollis Hill ward, to the west by Dudden Hill ward, to the south west by Willesden Green ward, to the south by Brondesbury Park ward, and to the east by the London Borough of Barnet and (further south) the London Borough of Camden. The area formed part of the Middlesex parish and manor of Willesden, which was held by the chapter of St Paul's Cathedral by the time of the Norman Conquest. The manor was divided into eight prebends to support the various members of the chapter. One of these duly gained the name "Mapesbury" after Walter Map, prebendary from 1173–c1192. Willesden Lane was known as Mapes Lane until the 1860s. Mapesbury remained countryside until the 1860s, when residential development began. By 1875 there were a number of large suburban villas. Four years later the Metropolitan Railway opened its line in the area, and building lots were let for "first class residences". Mapesbury Farm was leased to builders in 1893, and Mapesbury Road constructed in the following year. The main development took place between 1895 and 1905, consisting of brick-built houses with extensive tree planting. In 1982 Mapesbury was designated a conservation area. The ward returns three councillors to sit on Brent Council. At the 2006 election, the ward which had been a Labour/Conservative marginal elected three Liberal Democrat councillors. They retained their seats at the 2010 election, but at the 2014 election Labour took 2 of the 3 seats from the Liberal Democrats. The ward forms part of the Brent Central parliamentary constituency and is represented in parliament by Dawn Butler of the Labour Party. Mapesbury ward has strong links to Irish culture and over 10% of its population are Irish. It has the second-highest population in terms of numbers in London.

On 15 September 2004, Heynckes was fired by the club's general manager Rudi Assauer. Heynckes finished with a record of 28 wins, 14 draws and 15 losses. In May 2006, Heynckes returned to manage Borussia Mönchengladbach, the club where he had begun his career as both a player and manager. Heynckes' first match was a 2–0 win against Energie Cottbus on 12 August 2006. Heynckes' comeback started well, with Gladbach in fifth position in the Bundesliga at the end of the seventh matchday after winning each of their opening four home matches. He resigned on 31 January 2007, however, after 14-straight Bundesliga matches without a win saw Borussia drop to 17th place in the table. with the coach requiring police protection for matches against VfL Bochum and Energie Cottbus in the previous month. On departing Borussia, Heynckes refused a pay-off and returned his company car to the club office freshly cleaned and with a full tank of petrol. In May 2013, upon returning to Borussia-Park for his originally final match as a Bundesliga coach, Heynckes said, "This is my club. It's where I started as a 19-year-old professional, then worked as a coach. Since then I have come full circle. Mönchengladbach is my home town, I spent 23 years at the club, so this will not be just a normal game for me." The team's fortunes did not improve after Heynckes' departure and the club was relegated at the end of the season, finishing last in the Bundesliga table. Heynckes finished with a record of 5 wins, 4 draws and 12 losses. After over two years out of football, Heynckes came out of retirement and returned to football in April 2009, becoming caretaker manager of his former club Bayern Munich, replacing the sacked Jürgen Klinsmann. Bayern were in danger of missing out on qualification for the Champions League upon Heynckes' appointment, but the team won four and drew one of its remaining matches, finishing second in the Bundesliga, two points behind champions VfL Wolfsburg. The four Bayern wins were against Borussia Mönchengladbach, Energie Cottbus, Bayer Leverkusen, and VfB Stuttgart. The draw was against 1899 Hoffenheim. On 5 June 2009, Heynckes signed a two-year contract to manage Bayer Leverkusen.

Halloween documents The Halloween documents comprise a series of confidential Microsoft memoranda on potential strategies relating to free software, open-source software, and to Linux in particular, and a series of media responses to these memoranda. Both the leaked documents and the responses were published by Eric S. Raymond in 1998. The documents are associated with Halloween because many of them were originally leaked close to October 31 in different years. The first Halloween document, requested by senior vice-president Jim Allchin for the attention of senior vice-president Paul Maritz and written by Microsoft program manager Vinod Valloppillil, was leaked to Eric Raymond in October 1998, who immediately published an annotated version on his web site. The document contained references to a second memorandum specifically dealing with Linux, and that document, authored by Vinod Valloppillil and Josh Cohen at Microsoft, was also obtained, annotated and published by Raymond. Microsoft has since acknowledged the documents' authenticity. Marked "Microsoft confidential", the documents identified open-source software, and in particular the Linux operating system, as a major threat to Microsoft's domination of the software industry, and suggested tactics Microsoft could use to disrupt the progress of open-source software. These documents acknowledged that free software products such as Linux were technologically competitive with some of Microsoft's products, and set out a strategy to combat them. These views contradicted Microsoft's public pronouncements on the subject. Since the publication of the two original documents, a number of additional Microsoft memoranda on related topics have also been leaked and published. The documents are from a variety of sources. Only some are leaked internal memos (documents I, II, VII, VIII, and X). One is a public statement (document III). The others are responses by Eric Raymond to various columns, news articles, and other works. These are leaked reports for Microsoft's own use, both written by Vinod Valloppillil, a program manager at Microsoft. Document I provides a detailed introduction to the concepts behind open source software and its possible impact on Microsoft products and services. It outlines the strengths and weaknesses of open source software. Document II describes the basic architecture of the Linux system, and its relation to Unix and Windows NT. Document I revealed that "FUD" (spreading fear, uncertainty, and doubt) was a traditional Microsoft marketing strategy, acknowledged and understood internally. Examples of Microsoft's FUD tactics are announcing nonexistent products or spreading rumors that competing products will crash Windows. Raymond suggests that the documents show that while Microsoft may have been dismissive of open source software in public, it privately considers it a serious competitor.

Justin Harding Justin Adam Harding (born 9 February 1986) is a South African professional golfer. Harding played college golf at Lamar University in Texas and represented his country as an amateur golfer. Having graduated, he earned a place on the Sunshine Tour at the first attempt, finishing third at the 2009 qualifying school while still an amateur. He won a tournament in each of his first three seasons on the tour, 2010, 2011 and 2012. He won again in 2015 and 2016 and then twice in two weeks in 2018. In July 2018 Harding made a rare appearance outside Africa and won the Bank BRI Indonesia Open on the Asian Tour by a stroke from Scott Vincent. Two weeks later he won the Royal Cup in Thailand by 6 strokes, his fourth win in three months. Alan Burns has caddied full time for Harding since October 2018. In March 2019, Harding got his first European Tour victory by winning the Commercial Bank Qatar Masters by two strokes over nine runners-up. He was a joint runner-up in the Kenya Open the following week, a result that lifted him into the world top 50 and gave him an entry into the 2019 Masters Tournament. He finished in a share of 12th place to earn his place at the 2020 Masters Tournament.

Revolution 7 in early 2005 saw the series achieve its first near capacity crowd, the start of the event had to be delayed to allow the crowds into the venue. Revolution 14 was the series' first complete sell out, with some ticketless fans turned away. From early 2008 onwards the events began to sell out in advance. The Revolution is also expanding into a global series, CotterPin has licensed the concept in Australia. The first Revolution Australia event was held in the Darebin International Sports Centre, Melbourne on 24 November 2007. There were over 3,000 spectators present at Australia's Revolution 1. In July 2008, the Aftermarket company signed a deal with Face Partnership to create an expo area in the track centre at each event. This takes advantage of the captive audience and precise target consumers present at each Revolution. Each Revolution meeting consists of a fast-paced, packed programme of races. The evening lasts for between 3 hours and 3 hours 45 minutes and typically involves around twenty events. Each event has three categories of racing including sprint and endurance, and the "Future Stars" series. Live PA duties at the events are carried out by the BBC commentator and cyclist, Hugh Porter. In 2011-12, ITV4 broadcast a one-hour highlights show on Monday evenings following each Revolution meeting. In September 2015 it was announced that Eurosport would broadcast live coverage of five rounds of the 2015-16 series. In April 2016 a collaboration between FACE Partnership and Velon, an organisation representing 11 UCI WorldTeams, was announced to expand the Revolution series internationally as the Revolution Champions League, with the inaugural Champions League competition being held across three consecutive weekends in November and December 2016. The competition is planned to feature a total of 12 teams, of which eight will be drawn from the World Tour ranks. In June 2016 seven WorldTeams were confirmed as participants in the first Champions League, which would consist of six rounds held over three back-to-back weekends in Manchester, London and a third venue abroad, which was confirmed the following month as the Vélodrome National in Paris. However shortly before the Paris meeting was due to take place FACE Partnership announced that it would be postponed to the following season. Each meeting features a main Revolution Sprint competition, alongside other various events including the Keirin and Team sprint. The sprint competition is usually a straight knock out event, typically with a first round, semifinal and final. For some events a sprint omnium has taken place, with all riders facing each other at some point during the evening and the most successful winning overall.

Boasso was in Baton Rouge at the time, and on being advised of the situation returned to the parish before the winds had completely died. He spent the following weeks bringing supplies, including fuel, food, medicines, and transportation to the parish. Many local residents said that Boasso and Democratic then U.S. Representative Charlie Melancon of Louisiana's 3rd congressional district were nearly the only source of help for his parish. Media coverage was aimed almost entirely at New Orleans alone. Boasso noted that rescuers from Canada were in the parish before any state response got there. Boasso has continued to push for assistance for St. Bernard Parish and has promised that Boasso America will continue to operate there. Seven weeks after Hurricane Katrina, Boasso proposed SB95 that would eliminate seven local levee boards in Greater New Orleans and replace them with one board. His bill was heavily backed by local business leaders. The bill failed, but a similar version passed in a special session in early 2006. Before Katrina, the Governor selected levee board commissioners. After Boasso's bill passed, a local blue ribbon committee selects who serves. In 1996, Boasso succeeded the Republican state Senator Lynn Dean of Plaquemines Parish. After Boasso's defection, the seat returned to Republican hands. In the 2007 primary, state Representative A. G. Crowe of Pearl River defeated the Democrat Kenneth L. Odinet Sr., 11,625 (52 percent) to 10,811 (48 percent). In 2008, Odinet switched to the Republican Party in an unsuccessful candidacy for the Louisiana Public Service Commission.

Cliff Reid Cliff Reid (September 7, 1891 – August 22, 1959), also known as George Clifford Reid, was an American film producer and film production studio founder during the 1930s and 1940s. In addition he also directed film shorts, and was the assistant director on several feature films. Reid was born and raised in Delaware, Ohio, and graduated from high school there. He entered the film industry in the 1910s and worked as a film distributor, before beginning to produce silent films in 1921. Reid began in the film industry at the very beginning of the sound era, producing and directing film shorts. His first film was "The Suppressed Crime", a 1930 mystery short, which was produced by Reid's own company, George Clifford Reid Productions. During 1930 and 1931 Reid's company would produce 19 film shorts, which Reid produced and directed. He even wrote one of the shorts, 1931's "The Bank Swindle". Reid began working for RKO in 1933; his first assignment for the studio was as the associate producer on "The Balloon Buster", with H. Bruce Humberstone directing. There is no record this film was ever finished. Later that year he was tagged by Merian C. Cooper, RKO's V.P. in charge of production, as his envoy to regional sales conventions in Chicago and San Francisco. Reid's first involvement in a feature film being as the associate producer on John Ford's war film, "The Lost Patrol". He would work mostly as an associate producer for RKO over the next few years, before being given the producing helm in 1937 on the drama, "The Man Who Found Himself", directed by Lew Landers. Reid remained at RKO through 1942 as a producer, his last film for them being an installment of the Mexican Spitfire series, "Mexican Spitfire Sees a Ghost". Other notable films on which Reid worked include: the 1935 version of "The Three Musketeers"; the western "The Arizonian", starring Richard Dix; on John Ford's Oscar-winning war film, "The Informer", starring Victor McLaglen; and Howard Hawks' 1938 screwball comedy, "Bringing Up Baby", starring Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn; Reid left RKO after the "Mexican Spitfire" film, and by 1944 he was part of the stable of producers at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. He only worked on a few films at MGM, but they included the John Ford war classic, "They Were Expendable", starring John Wayne and Robert Montgomery.

Standard Oil would ultimately buy this refinery, located on Fish Island. Fish Island was also the site of an early experiment in coal gasification, leading to the explosion of a building. New Bedford was able to remain wealthy because of its textile industry. Starting in 1881, the textile industry grew large enough to sustain the city's economy. At its height, over 30,000 people were employed by the 32 cotton-manufacturing companies that owned the textile factories of New Bedford (which were worth $100 million in total). The creation of the New Bedford Textile School in 1895–1899 ushered in an era of textile prosperity that began to decline in the great depression and ended with the end of the textile period in the 1940s. The industry garnered national headlines in 1928 when it was hit with a strike of 30,000 workers. The walkout of mostly immigrant workers was given critical support by the Workers (Communist) Party and was the precursor of a more tumultuous textile strike in North Carolina held the following year. Tool and die operations also left the area steadily, starting in the 1970s. While accurate figures are hard to come by, tourism appears to be a growing industry. New Bedford tourism centers on fairs and festivals including the Folk Festival, Whaling City Festival, Fourth of July, Jazzfest, Working Waterfront Festival, Polish Fest, New Bedford Day of Portugal, Senhor Da Pedra feast, Holy Ghost of Pico feast, and the Portuguese Feast of the Blessed Sacrament (the largest Portuguese cultural celebration in the nation). Tourism also focuses on the historic whaling industry, and the New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park is the only national park unit that focuses on the whaling industry's impact on the history of the United States. The Buttonwood Park Zoo features various species, including two Asian Elephants, Emily and Ruth, the only ones in New England. Driven in part by increased tourism, a Fairfield Inn and Suites hotel opened in New Bedford in late May 2010, on the edge of the city's harbor. This became the first hotel in the city to open in over 40 years, though it is well-supplied with bed and breakfast establishments. A secondary hotel, New Bedford Harbor Hotel, opened during the summer of 2018. Despite the historical decline of fishing and whaling in New England, New Bedford continues to be a leading fishing port. In 2016, New Bedford was the highest-valued port in the nation, a title it has held for seventeen straight years. $327 million worth of seafood crossed its docks, making it more valuable than even the most productive Alaskan fishing ports.

Henry Goode Henry Goode (June 7, 1918 – April 30, 2000) was an American field hockey player. He competed in the men's tournament at the 1948 Summer Olympics.

This type of claw is not seen in any other Triassic archosaur except for pterosaurs. Major archosaur groups have often been distinguished from each other based on the structure of their ankles. In most crurotarsans, the astragalus has a convex projection that fits into a concave space in the calcaneum. This condition is often referred to as a "crocodile-normal" ankle, as it is the most common ankle type in crurotarsans. Ornithosuchids are unique among crurotarsans, and all other archosaurs, in their possession of a "crocodile-reversed" ankle. In a "crocodile-reversed" ankle, the placement of the concavity is reversed: instead of being on the calcaneum, it is on the astragalus. In ornithosuchids, the calcaneum bears a convex projection that is analogous to the convex projection on the "crocodile-normal" astragalus. Ornithosuchidae is generally considered to be within the larger clade Suchia, which includes aetosaurs, rauisuchians, and crocodylomorphs. Below is a cladogram based on Nesbitt (2011), showing the placement of Ornithosuchidae in Archosauriformes.

Frank Sanborn saw to it that the daughters of John Brown received an education in Concord, and even after the turn of the twentieth century took a measure of responsibility for Brown's children and grandchildren. Higginson expressed the wish that disunion could have been achieved "without the sacrifice of Brown" and believed a counter-proposal to the Harper's Ferry scheme should have been made—one that protected Brown from himself, believing the Six should have perceived "the madness that dwelled within him-- the insanity that sat stealthily beside his great, selfless nobility." In 1905, Higginson co-founded the Intercollegiate Socialist Society, along with attorney Clarence Darrow, Jack London, and Upton Sinclair. After Sanborn's death in 1917, the House of Representatives of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts adopted a bill applauding him for his various life works, with special mention given to Sanborn's role as "confidential adviser to John Brown of Harper's Ferry, for whose sake he was ostracized, maltreated, and subjected to the indignity of false arrest, having been saved from deportation from Massachusetts only by mob violence."

Laertes (Hamlet) Laertes is a character in William Shakespeare's play "Hamlet". Laertes is the son of Polonius and the brother of Ophelia. In the final scene, he kills Hamlet with a poisoned sword to avenge the deaths of his father and sister, for which he blamed Hamlet. While dying of the same poison, he implicates King Claudius. The Laertes character is thought to be originated by Shakespeare, as there is no equivalent character in any of the known sources for the play. His name is taken from Laërtes, father of Odysseus in Homer's "Odyssey". In the first act, Laertes is seen warning Ophelia against Hamlet's romantic pursuit of her, saying Hamlet will soon lose his desire for her, and that it is not Hamlet's own choice but the king's as to whom he will marry. Before Laertes returns to France from Denmark, returning to Denmark only to attend the coronation of King Claudius, his father, Polonius, gives him advice to behave himself in France. During Laertes's absence, Hamlet kills Polonius in Gertrude's parlour. Laertes, informed of his father's death, returns to Denmark, and leads a mob to storm and take the castle. Laertes confronts the King, thinking he was responsible for Polonius' death. The King explains to him who the real killer was, and incites Laertes to kill Hamlet and avenge Polonius' death. When Ophelia appears in her mad condition, Laertes laments, saying that if she had her wits she could not persuade him more to revenge. Later, Laertes is informed of her death. She had climbed into a willow tree that hung over a brook, and then fell into the water when a branch broke. Too insane to save herself, she drowned. His sister's death strengthens Laertes's resolve to kill Hamlet. At her funeral, Laertes asks why the normal Christian burial ceremony is not being carried out for his sister, and rebukes the priest for questioning her innocence. He leaps into her grave and begs the attendants to bury him with her. Hamlet, who was previously watching from afar, advances and himself leaps into Ophelia's grave. When Laertes attacks Hamlet, the two have to be held back to avoid a fight.

Patricia removes her mask and takes off her blouse, exposing her breasts. She unbuttons her pants, revealing a dismembered goat hoof she has held between her legs. As the group taunt Steve, Terry forces him to fellate the goat hoof. Steve escapes, but is cornered in an empty room, where a row of spotlights suddenly light up. Terry and his crew, armed with a power drill, approach Steve, plunging the drill bit through his eye socket, killing him. One by one, they slowly back away from Steve's body and disappear into the darkness. As the scene fades out, a voiceover states that Terry, Bill, Ken, Patricia, and Kathy were apprehended and are in a state penitentiary. Some film scholars have noted "Last House on Dead End Street"'s unique preoccupation with and self-reflexivity regarding the aestheticization of violence. In "Holy Terror: Understanding Religion and Violence in Popular Culture" (2010), film scholars Gerry Carlin and Mark Jones point out the film's similarities to the Manson family murders, and note its religious undertones, which are amplified by the film's choral soundtrack: "Though principally a metafilmic commentary on cinematic perversity, the [lead character]'s gnomic pronouncements, and the excessively ritualized evisceral 'sacrifices' allude to a debased if fundamentally unrepresentable religiosity." Horror film critic and scholar Chas Balun echoes a similar sentiment, writing in 1989 that, ""Last House on Dead End Street" proves especially unsettling in the manner in which it blurs the lines between recording, inciting and participating in an act of violence. Other films...  have similarly broached the subject, but none have been so alarmingly forthright and worrisome." Film scholars Bill Landis and Michelle Clifford described the film as sticking to "a consistent, purposeful style that builds to the foulest mood imaginable, creating its own world of hate. In that unintentional exploitation way, it reproduces the Panic Theater extremes of surrealism, where evisceration is the metaphor for the sex act," likening it to the "bastard cousin of Otto Muehl." Landis and Clifford also note the self-reflexive framing of the film, deeming it "a film within a film motivated by a hate of pornography and the swingers who create it." Because of Terry's focus on murdering individuals connected to the pornographic film industry, Landis and Clifford herald the film as "the ultimate sexual revenge movie...

Mario Camposeco Mario Salvador Camposeco López (6 August 1921 – 17 June 1951) was a Guatemalan footballer. Born in Quetzaltenango, he started his football career in 1938 playing for the local team "América". He then joined club Xelajú becoming its captain and helping the team become champion of the Quetzaltenango department for 10 consecutive seasons (1940–1950). In 1942 he was called as a reinforcement for CSD Municipal by coach Manuel Felipe Carrera to play against Atlante F.C. of Mexico, and in 1943 he was first capped with the Guatemala national team. On 10 March 1946, during the III Central American Football Championship, he scored against Costa Rica in a 4-1 win in San José. In 1948 he was part of a Municipal squad that won a friendly tournament in commemoration of the Cuban Independence in Havana, Cuba.

For example, Medieval England saw the marriage age as variable depending on economic circumstances, with couples delaying marriage until the early twenties when times were bad and frequently marrying in the late teens after the Black Death, when there were labor shortages and it was economically lucrative to workers; by appearances, marriage of adolescents was not the norm in England. In Eastern Europe however, there were many differences with specific regional characteristics. In the Byzantine Empire, Bulgarian Empire and Kievan Rus', the majority of women were well educated and had a higher social status than in Western Europe. Equality in family relations and the right to common property after marriage were recognized by law with the Ekloga, issued in Constantinople in 726 and Slavonic Ekloga in Bulgaria in the 9th century. In some parts of Russia the tradition of early and universal marriage (usually of a bride age 12–15, with menarche occurring on average at 14) as well as traditional Slavic patrilocal customs led to a greatly inferior status for women at all levels of society. In rural South Slavic areas, a custom of women marrying men younger than themselves, in some cases only after the age of thirty, remained until the 19th century. The manorial system had yet to penetrate into Eastern Europe where there was a lesser effect on clan systems and no firm enforcement of bans on cross-cousin marriages. Orthodox laws banned marriages between relatives closer than third and fourth cousins.

Marina Hociotă Marina Hociotă (), also known as Mina Hociotă (19 August 1896 – 7 July 1977), was a Romanian nun who acted as a front line nurse during World War I. Marina was born on 19 August 1896 in a shepherd family from Săliște (then part of Austria-Hungary). As a child she stood out in school, but also through her unusual courage: she rode the horses of the family when she was not even 10 years old. The death of her father, who died of gout before she was 12 years old, and the compulsory introduction of the Hungarian language in the Romanian schools in Hungary, implemented in 1907 through the new education laws (also called the "Apponyi laws"), led Marina to leave her home village and cross the Carpathian mountains to Văratec Monastery in Romania at the age of 14. There she was ordained as a nun at the age of 18 and took the monastic name Mina, under the patronage of her aunt Mother Melania Cruțiu. She shared the pain of leaving her home in a letter to her biographer, priest Grigorie Popescu: "I joined the convent due to the Hungarian persecution, which took us the freedom to speak our mother tongue in school, where we were taught only in Hungarian". After the outbreak of the World War I (1914), during the two years of Romanian neutrality, special nursing courses were organized by the Red Cross in several centers in the country, including the Văratec Monaster. The young nun volunteered: "You can imagine what joy we felt when we were able to serve and help our brothers who engaged in the struggle to free us from the Hungarian foreign yoke." In May 1916 the War Ministry prepared the general mobilization and Mother Mina was assigned to the Tecuci Regional Hospital. After Romania's entry into the war (August 1916) and after the territorial losses that took place during the first months of war, including the occupation of Bucharest, the front stabilized in southern Moldavia. Campaign and regional hospitals behind the front were full of wounded. After her work had been noticed by her superiors, Mother Mina was authorized to wear a military uniform and she was mobilized close to the front line at Mărășești, where she received the rank of second lieutenant. Mother Mina initially worked as a nurse in the hospital, but, when the fighting resumed, she moved closer to the front line trenches, where she took care of evacuating the wounded and transporting them to sanitary trains.

Decima Gallery Decima Gallery is a London-based arts projects organisation with a reputation for irreverent projects. Also known as Decima Projects or Decima International Arts, but more commonly simply referred to as Decima, it is owned and managed by David West, Alex Chappel, Larry McGinity and Mark Reeves. Decima have occupied various physical spaces since 1997 and have also staged a number of projects hosted by other venues, in London and around the world, including major London spaces such as the Tate Modern, the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Whitechapel Gallery. Decima have also staged many conceptual, event-based and media-based projects. Ralph Rugoff in "Frieze" called them "Neo-Publicists", as they do not just seek press coverage, but use the mass media as their artistic medium. As well as doing art projects, events, and club nights, Decima deals in limited edition books and prints, specialising in Gilbert & George and Stephen Gill. A 2008 article in "The London Paper" described the gallery as "infamous" for its headline-grabbing stunts in the late 1990s, including the "Fuck Art and Pimp" exhibition where Angela Marshall pretended to offer her artwork in exchange for oral sex, the show "Was Jesus a Homosexual?" and the time that curators Alex Chappel and David West gratecrashed the Tate dressed as a pantomime cow to "make people think". David C. West worked with the Factual Nonsense Gallery alongside Joshua Compston before Compston's death on 5 March 1996. Among projects on which they collaborated was The Jack Duckworth Memorial Clinic, a spoof clinic for soap opera addicts. In 1996, David C. West along with Alex Chappel formed a "media terrorist" group called a.r.t. (a reasonable thought). "We use the media as a canvas for art", explained David C. West: "Stunts have included running a clinic for soap opera addicts and launching The Dennis Nilsen Tour Company.". The group's name originates from the address of their first gallery space which was officially launched in February 1998 at 3 Decima Studios, Decima Street, London SE1. The gallery was first occupied on 31 August 1997 by Guy Hilton, Philip Hunt, Alex Chappel and Matthew John Andrew. Guy Hilton left before the first show (he later went on to found the Guy Hilton Gallery with Angela Friese in London's East End, in 2005.)

The biggest change to affect Metuchen between the World Wars was the rise of the automobile. In the 1920s, service stations were built, and the construction of U.S. Route 1 just south of Metuchen in 1930 diverted traffic away from Middlesex Avenue, helping the borough retain its residential character. Both Route 27 and CR 531 pass through and intersect at the heart of the borough, while Interstate 287 runs along the southern border. Metuchen also includes portions of CR 501, CR 660 and CR 669. Other limited access roads are nearby, such as the New Jersey Turnpike (Interstate 95) in surrounding Edison Township and the Garden State Parkway in Woodbridge Township. The Metuchen station provides service to many destinations along NJ Transit's Northeast Corridor Line between the Trenton Transit Center and New York Penn Station. NJ Transit local bus service is available on the 810, 813 and 819 routes. People who were born in, residents of, or otherwise closely associated with Metuchen include:

Hai Sing Catholic School Hai Sing Catholic School (HSC) is a government-aided co-educational secondary school in Pasir Ris, Singapore. Founded by the Franciscan Missionaries of Mary (FMM) sisters in 1959, it is an affiliated school of Catholic Junior College. Hai Sing Catholic School was founded in 1959 by the Franciscan Missionaries of Mary (FMM) sisters, as Hai Sing Girls' High School, with 170 students. Lessons were initially conducted at Convent Primary School along Punggol Road It was the first girl's high school in Serangoon and the second Catholic one in Singapore. From 1960 to 1961, a three-storey building was constructed at the mile mark of Upper Serangoon, with an office, science laboratories, 18 classrooms and a common room for teachers. In 1972, a new 800-seat school hall was constructed. Six years later, the school was named one of the 14 outstanding Chinese secondary schools in Singapore and was initially included as a candidate school for the Special Assistance Plan. However, with the concern from the Ministry of Education over the surplus of school places that might hinder the success of the scheme, the number of SAP schools were amended to nine, which excluded Hai Sing Girls' High, along with three other institutions. Later in 1978, Hai Sing was named one of the 14 outstanding Chinese Secondary Schools in Singapore. In 1981, Hai Sing Girls' High School started taking in English stream students and was converted from a Chinese medium school to an integrated school. In 1984, the school celebrated its Silver Jubilee. In January 1990, Hai Sing Girls' High School changed its policy to admit male students, as well as students of other races. As such, the school name was changed to Hai Sing High School and went co-educational. In March of the same year, the school moved from Upper Serangoon Road into Pasir Ris New Town, with the official opening ceremony held on 11 July 1992. On 11 July 1999, Hai Sing High School changed its name to its current name, Hai Sing Catholic School, to emphasize its Catholic status. The school emblem was also modified. In 2008, Hai Sing Catholic School won multiple achievement awards for their outstanding academic and non-academic (Co-curricular activity-related) achievements. Academic awards include an Honour Roll for the Sustained Achievement Award and a regular Achievement Award. They were also one of the select schools to achieve an Honour Roll, along with a full 4-star award for 4 different non-academic achievements.

Margarosticha sphenotis Margarosticha sphenotis is a moth in the family Crambidae. It was described by Meyrick in 1887. It is found in Australia, where it has been recorded from New South Wales, Queensland and the Northern Territory. The wings are orange with blue, grey and white markings.

In that era, with footballers often struggling to make ends meet, it was fairly commonplace for English and Irish-based players to spend the summer months playing in North America to earn extra cash. Consequently, McCue joined a number of international players in the NASL. His roommate over in San Diego legendary Polish player Kazimierz Deyna. McCue played one season with the "Sockers" in the 1983 NASL season, making five appearances and registering one goal and one assist. The "Sockers" would finish last in the Western Division. After his summer stint with the "Sockers", McCue joined Northern Irish League side Glentoran in Belfast. With "the Glens" he was a runner-up in the 1983-84 league season but won the Ulster Cup that same year. He lined out twice for Glentoran in the 1984-85 UEFA Cup, starting in both games as they drew 1-1 and then lost 2-0 away to Belgian giants Standard Liege. Prior to the first-leg, McCue had been blessed by the Reverend Ian Paisley. After sustaining an ankle injury, he spent the last few months of the 1984-85 season on loan at Drogheda United but, in spite of the team boasting an impressive squad including McCue, Miah Dennehy, and Mick Fairclough, this didn't prevent "the Boynesiders" dropping into the newly-formed Division One. In 1985, McCue was invited to join up again with Turlough O'Connor, recently arrived as manager with Dundalk, where he linked up with a number of former Athlone colleagues. After runners up spots in both League and FAI Cup in 1986-87, O'Connor added Paul Newe and Michael O'Connor to the squad for the following year. The 1987-88 season saw Dundalk secure a remarkable League and Cup double. McCue played in the Cup final victory over Derry City. The Cup final would be his last League of Ireland game. Shortly afterwards he emigrated to Australia and over the following nine years collected more honours, playing and coaching with Warringah Dolphins in the New South Wales Super League. During his three playing seasons he made 52 appearances, and he spent his remaining six seasons as a coach, initially as a youth coach and then first-team coach, landing the League and Cup Double in the 1994–95 season. When he returned to Ireland, Harry became assistant manager to Martin Lawlor at Drogheda United in October 1997.

It was then celebrated as a Double of the Second Class, a rank that was changed in 1960 to that of Second Class Feast. In the 1969 revision of the General Roman Calendar, it was joined to that of Anne, for celebration on 26 July. The Eastern Orthodox Churches and Greek Catholics commemorate Joachim on 9 September, the Synaxis of Joachim and Anne, the day after the Nativity of the Theotokos. In the Quran, the father of Mary, mother of Jesus is known as Imran (ʿImrān). In the Quran, a whole chapter, Al Imran, is named after his family. The name is mentioned in several locations and it is said that his family was one of those preferred over all of God's creatures: "Lo! God preferred Adam and Noah and the Family of Abraham and the Family of 'Imran above (all His) creatures." It has been narrated in Shi'i hadith from Abu Basir that Ja'far al-Sadiq, the Twelver Imam confirmed that Imran was a prophet and apostle to his people, further stating "Hannah, the wife of Imran, and Ishba, the wife of Zechariah, were sisters. He goes on to say that Mary was born from Hannah and John the Baptist was born from Ishba. Mary gave birth to Jesus and he was the son of the daughter of John's aunt. John was the son of the aunt of Mary, and the aunt of one's mother is like one's aunt." Although Islamic studies of the beginning of the 20th century tended to note genealogical discrepancies, in more recent Islamic Studies of the 21st century the general consensus is, according to Angelika Neuwirth, Nicolai Sinai & Michael Marx, that the Quran does not make a genealogical error but instead makes use of Typology. This is, following Wensincks conclusion, supported by the figurative speech of the Quran and the Islamic tradition: "Maryam is called a sister of Hārūn and the use of these three names ‘Imrān, Hārūn and Maryam, has led to the supposition that the Kur'ān does not clearly distinguished between the two Maryams, of the Old and the New Testaments. It is not necessary to assume that these kinship links are to interpreted in modern terms. The words "sister" and "daughter", like their male counterparts, in Arabic usage can indicate extended kinship, descendance or spiritual affinity.

The success of the Nine Partners meeting helped the Society grow in the Hudson Valley. Several other meetings in the county were started within it as preparative meetings, and outside the county it led to the establishment of the Cornwall meeting in Orange County, still active today, along with meetings as far away as what is now Canada. It soon became a quarterly meeting. Situated to the east and slightly uphill was the former store of Samuel Mabbett, a somewhat strayed Friend and known to be a Loyalist during the Revolutionary War. In 1796, the Nine Partners Meeting purchased the store and converted it to the Nine Partners Boarding School. The school enrolled up to one hundred students at a time and stayed in service until 1863, when the students transferred to the Oakwood Friends School (then known Oakwood Seminary at Union Springs,) in Poughkeepsie. Among its alumni were Lucretia Mott and Daniel Anthony, father of Daniel and Susan B. Anthony. Within a few years of closing, the former school building and land was purchased by John D. Wing, a former student of the school. The school building was moved to the top of the hill and became a part of his estate house. In 1826, the Meeting split into Hicksite and Orthodox Quakers.The Hicksite branch retained use of the brick meeting house and cemetery, while the Orthodox Quakers retained the school and built their own smaller meeting house between the school and the brick meeting house. This structure remained in place until 1882, when it was removed to the Village of Millbrook. In 1897, the brick meeting house and cemetery were turned over to the Nine Partners Burial Ground Association, ending Quaker ownership of the site. The Nine Partners School would eventually change location and become what is now Oakwood Friends School The Nine Partners Monthly Meeting continues as a part of the New York Yearly Meeting. The meeting house is used during the summer months. During the winter, the meeting is held at the Lyall Memorial Federated Church in Millbrook.
