The Galley Islands are an archipelago off the northeast coast of Antigua. Geography At the northeastern extremity of North Sound, north of Guiana Island, are the Galley Islands, which includes Great Bird Island, Hells Gate Island, Red Head Island, Exchange Island, Rabbit Island, and Lobster Island. The majority of the Galley Islands are centered on Great Bird Island, the largest island and one that is located the farthest from the coast. A series of reef crowns run southwest into the North Sound from the islands. The Galley Islands are a part of Saint Peter. The islands have been a component of the North East Marine Management Area since 2006. The smaller islands of Antigua were integrated as an important area for coastal birds in 2007 and designated as an Offshore Islands Important Bird Area (AG006).

The Battle of Xiling was fought between the states of Western Jin and Eastern Wu from October 272 to February 273 during the Three Kingdoms period of China. The battle concluded with a Wu victory. Background During the Three Kingdoms period, the city of Xiling (西陵; present-day Xiling District, Yichang, Hubei) was held by Eastern Wu, and it was located near the border between Wu and its ally, Shu Han. In 229, Bu Zhi was appointed Commander of Xiling, where he would serve up to his death in 247. After he died, his son, Bu Chan, took over his role in Xiling. The Cao Wei state conquered Shu Han in 263, and in 266, Wei was replaced by the Western Jin. In 272, the Wu emperor, Sun Hao recalled Bu Chan to the capital to have him serve as the Controller of the Imperial Guards. However, because the Bu family had been in Xiling for many years, Bu Chan feared that he had been accused of not performing his duty well, and that he was actually being recalled to be punished. Thus, Bu Chan defected to Jin, surrendering Xiling and sending his two nephews, Bu Ji (步璣) and Bu Xuan (步璿), to the Jin capital, Luoyang. The battle Initial stage When Wu's Senior General Who Guards the Army, Lu Kang received news of the revolt, he immediately ordered his subordinates Zuo Yi (左奕), Wu Yan, Cai Gong (蔡貢), and others to lead separate forces and head towards Xiling. He instructed his men to construct defensive structures all the way from Chixi (赤谿) to Gushi (故市) to form an encirclement around Bu Chan's position, while at the same time defending the area from attacks by Jin forces. Hearing that Lu Kang was approaching Xiling, Jin sent the Chief Controller of Jing Province, Yang Hu to rescue Bu Chan. While constructing the defences, many of Lu Kang's officers repeatedly urged him to attack Xiling but he refused, believing that the city was well-fortified. To prove that he was right, Lu Kang eventually relented and ordered an assault on Xiling. As he expected, they did not succeed in capturing the city, so his officers gave up their idea of attacking and complied with Lu Kang's orders to construct the defensive structures. Destruction of the dyke near Jiangling When Jin forces led by Yang Hu were approaching Jiangling County, the Wu officers advised Lu

Kang against leaving Jiangling to attack Xiling. However, Lu Kang was confident that Jiangling was impregnable, and even if Jin were to capture it, they would not hold it for long. He was more concerned that if they lose Xiling, the tribes of the southern hills may rise up and cause trouble for Wu. Jiangling was situated on flat lands and was a very accessible location. However, Lu Kang later ordered Zhang Xian (張咸) to oversee the construction of a large dyke to block the river's flow and direct its waters to flood the flat lands, so as to create a large body of water around the city to serve as a barrier to invaders. When Yang Hu arrived, he planned to make use of this barrier by transporting supplies on boats, but he spread false news that he intended to destroy the dyke to make way for his land army to pass through. When Lu Kang heard that, he saw through Yang Hu's plot and ordered Zhang Xian to destroy the dyke. When Yang Hu reached Dangyang (當陽; southwest of present-day Jingmen, Hubei), he was dismayed to hear that the dyke had been destroyed. He had no choice but to transport his supplies on land, resulting in the wasting of time and effort. Final stages Xu Yin (徐胤), the commander of the Jin garrison at Badong Commandery (巴東郡; around present-day Fengjie County, Chongqing), led naval forces towards Jianping (建平; around present-day Zigui County, Hubei), while Yang Zhao (楊肇), the Inspector of Jing Province (also under Jin control), led troops towards Xiling. Lu Kang gave orders that: Zhang Xian reinforce Jiangling's defences; Sun Zun (孫遵), the Commandant of Gong'an County, patrol the south river bank and resist Yang Hu; and Liu Lü (留慮) and Zhu Wan (朱琬) guard against Xu Yin's attacks. He personally led three armies to hold off Yang Zhao with the aid of the defensive structures they had constructed earlier. However, Lu Kang's subordinates Zhu Qiao (朱喬) and Yu Zan (俞贊) defected to Yang Zhao's side. Lu Kang knew that Yu Zan was aware about the mutinous tribal soldiers in his army and may inform Yang Zhao about this weakness. Hence, that night, Lu Kang immediately replaced the tribal soldiers with other veteran soldiers whom he trusted more. The following day, as Lu Kang expected, Yang Zhao concentrated his attacks on the unit in Lu Kang's army

which used to be made up of tribal soldiers, without knowing that they had been replaced. Lu Kang ordered his archers to retaliate, raining arrows on the enemy and inflicting heavy casualties. After about a month, Yang Zhao failed to overcome Lu Kang, so he withdrew his army on one night. Lu Kang wanted to pursue the enemy but he was worried that Bu Chan (who was still inside Xiling) might use the opportunity to attack him from behind, and he did not have enough troops with him. He then ordered his men to beat the drums and pretend to prepare to attack Yang Zhao's retreating forces. When Yang Zhao's men saw that, they were so terrified that they abandoned their armour and equipment and fled. Lu Kang sent a small group of lightly armed soldiers to pursue Yang Zhao and they inflicted a crushing defeat on the enemy. Yang Hu and the other Jin generals withdrew their armies after receiving news of Yang Zhao's defeat. Lu Kang then attacked and conquered Xiling. Bu Chan, along with his family and high-ranking officers, were executed for treason, while the others, numbering over 10,000, were pardoned after Lu Kang made a request to the Wu court. Lu Kang then had Xiling's fortifications repaired before returning east to Lexiang (樂鄉; east of present-day Songzi, Hubei). Aftermath After Lu Kang returned to Lexiang, he was promoted to Protectorate General. Meanwhile, Yang Hu was demoted to General Who Pacifies the South, while Yang Zhao was made a commoner. For the next few years, Yang Hu shifted his focus to winning the hearts of the people of Wu by having he and his soldiers conduct themselves more respectfully towards their enemies. Historical records tell of an uncanny friendship between Yang Hu and Lu Kang after their battle at Xiling. Following Lu Kang's death in 274, Yang Hu began strongly advocating for Jin to carry out the conquest of Wu. The battle is briefly mentioned by Yang Hu in chapter 120 of Luo Guanzhong's 14th century historical novel, Romance of the Three Kingdoms. References Chen, Shou (3rd century).

Barbara H. Stanley (August 13, 1949 – January 25, 2023) was an American psychologist, researcher, and suicidologist who served as Professor of Psychology at Columbia University and the Director of Suicide Prevention Training at New York State Psychiatric Institute. Stanley was best known for the Stanley-Brown Safety Planning Intervention, which she developed in 2008 together with Gregory K. Brown. It has since been adopted by hospitals and mental health clinics across the U.S. as a method for suicide prevention. Life and career Born Barbara Hrevnack in Newark, New Jersey, on 13 August 1949, she earned a B.A. from Montclair State College and a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from New York University before becoming a licensed psychologist and a researcher. In 1970, she married Michael Edward Stanley, a neuroscientist, with whom she worked and published on subjects related to informed consent and borderline personality disorder. Stanley's research focused on suicide risk assessment and prevention. She was the author and co-author of over 200 scholarly articles and book chapters, and served as editor-in-chief of the Archives of Suicide Research. She was the chair and later member of the Committee on Human Research at the American Psychological Association and a standing member of the National Institute of Health, Center for Scientific Review's Adult Psychopathology and Disorders of Aging study section. Stanley spent most of her career as a researcher at Columbia University, later becoming a tenured faculty member and full professor of psychology at the Department of Psychiatry, Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons. She also served as the Director of the Suicide Prevention Training, Implementation and Evaluation for the Center for Practice Innovation and Research Scientist in Molecular Imaging and Neuropathology at New York State Psychiatric Institute. Stanley-Brown Safety Planning Intervention (2008) She received nation-wide recognition for her work on the Stanley-Brown Safety Planning Intervention, a prevention plan she co-developed with Gregory K. Brown from the University of Pennsylvania in 2008. The plan envisioned patients at risk of suicide verbalize and later write down a simple list of coping strategies, along with specific sources of support as well as distractions that could be relied upon during a mental health emergency. While suicide prevention contracts had been in use for some time, Stanley's research has proven their efficacy in dramatically decreasing the risk of suicide in post-discharge period and is said to have "helped shift the focus of suicide research toward

practical, concrete and timely interventions." The Stanley-Brown intervention plan has since been implemented by hospitals, clinics, and mental health institutes across the country, including the Beck Institute for Cognitive Behavior Therapy. According to a 2018 study of 1,640 suicidal patients at several Veterans Affairs hospitals in the United States published in JAMA Psychiatry, the Stanley-Brown Safety Planning Intervention contributed to a 45% reduction of suicidal behavior. Death A resident of Chatham Borough, New Jersey, Stanley died on January 25, 2023 at a hospice in Scotch Plains, New Jersey, of ovarian cancer. She was survived by her children, Melissa Morris and Thomas Stanley, and siblings John Hrevnack, Michael Hrevnack and Joanne Kennedy.

Educationally subnormal was a term used historically in the United Kingdom to refer to children with very limited intellectual abilities. Throughout much of the 20th century, British education policy focused on separating these children from the wider school population and they were often viewed as being uncapable of meaningful improvement. Children placed in this category were disproportionately boys, from less wealthy households and immigrant families. The term "mentally defective" was used in the early 20th century to refer to children and adults with intellectual disabilities. Beginning in the 1910s, children deemed to be in this category began to be formally classified as such and taken into the custody of the state if their home environment was believed to be unsuitable. Separate schools were also established for "mentally defective" children who remained in the custody of their parents. Following World War II, these children began to be formally known "educationally subnormal" and teachers became responsible for recommending them for separate schools. As attitudes towards them changed the term was taken out of usage in 1981 and attempts were made to integrate them into mainstream schools as much as possible. History The Mental Deficiency Act 1913 required local authorities to identify children deemed "mentally defective" and unfit for school. They would then be provided with institutionalised care if necessary. This decision was to a significant extent based on whether children were believed to be neglected which meant that those who were institutionalised were often from poorer households with limited resources. Children from wealthier homes were more likely to attend Educational Sub-Normality (ESN) schools. By 1955, 141,164 people were covered by the act most of whom had been registered in childhood. This time period saw a growth in the study of child development and child psychiatry. But children who had scored poorly in intelligence tests or were deemed otherwise "defective" were often assumed to be beyond help and interest in them was limited. Around the time of World War II, the growth of child diagnosis with various psychiatric disorders provided a new way to see children with difficulties. These new ideas were controversial, however, and the war drew resources away from their further exploration. The 1940s saw new understanding develop of the adverse effects of familial separation on children though this was largely not extended to children deemed "mentally deficient". The term "educationally subnormal" was formally introduced with the 1944 Education Act in

England and Wales. In the postwar years, primary and secondary school teachers were responsible for recommending children to ESN schools. The term was also used over a similar time period in Scotland and Northern Ireland. Following the Mental Health Act 1959, the phrase "mental deficient" was discontinued as a legal term and institutions for children in that category were closed. The number of children enrolled at ESN schools increased rapidly in the twenty years after World War II. For instance, between 1953 and 1962, the number of pupils in England and Wales increased from 19,000 to 36,000 albeit largely at day rather than residential schools. During the 1950s, '60s and 70s, the amount of scientific interest and public debate related to children with intellectual disabilities increased. Their were also objections among immigrant and ethnic minority parents that their children were disproportionately sent to ESN schools. A 1978 report recommended replacing the term "educationally subnormal" with "special educational needs" and including children who fell into that category in mainstream schools as much as possible. These proposals were put into law by the 1981 Education Act. ESN schools A 1950 academic paper described conditions at a residential ESN school. It stated that the school was located in a settlement for adult "mental defectives" but that the children were usually kept apart from the adults. The children lived in "homes" run by trained nurses of their sex and attended school for five days a week. During term time, they typically spent all their time at school, in its playing fields or in their school-run homes. They were sent to their family homes at Christmas and in the summer if one was "available and suitable". Older boys were also given opportunities for autonomy such as participating in games against outside groups or spending time and having jobs outside of school. Experiences which were withheld from girls in order to prevent "sexual misbehaviour". Later, anecdotal evidence suggests that many ESN schools taught a limited curriculum focused on games and artistic activities with very little academic work. According to a BBC report whilst their were some examples of ESN schools providing good quality education many children had their needs neglected. Demographics From the 1910s to the 1950s, the population of children deemed "mentally defective" was divided into two categories. Children from poorer households or unstable family situations were more likely to be institutionalised whilst children from

wealthier households were more likely to attend ESN schools whilst remaining in the custody of their parents. A 1950 report commented on the children attending a residential school: Later in 1962, a study examined a random sample of children deemed educationally subnormal in South Wales. The study noted that the children were 61% boys and 39% girls. The boys were disproportionately born later in the academic year and especially the summer months. The children were also disproportionately from less wealthy households. They appeared to be less likely to be first-borns than the general population. A significant minority of children had difficulties with their speech and sight. Whilst, almost half were deemed maladjusted. Ethnic Minority and Immigrant children A 1967 report by the Inner London Education Authority found 28% of children in London ESN schools were black immigrant children in comparison to 15% of the mainstream school population. During the 1960s and '70s, black children generally underperformed white children at school which fed into a common belief that black people were inherently intellectually inferior. This meant that teachers often feared that black children would depress the performance of their class. The needs of immigrant children from the Caribbean in particular were often neglected. These children often came to the UK after their parents so were adjusting to life in a new environment in the care of virtual strangers they had not seen in years. They had often previously spoken Jamaican English but were not given the support adjusting to a new dialect which they would have received had they spoken a different language.

Raja Club Athletic (Arabic: نادي الرجاء الرياضي, romanized: Nādī ar-Rajāʾ ar-Riyāḍī) is a professional sports club based in Casablanca, Morocco. The club was founded on 20 March 1949 in Derb Sultan by a group of Moroccan nationalists and trade unionists, including , the team's first coach, and Maati Bouabid, future Prime Minister and Minister of Justice, who regarded football as a way of resistance against the French colonizer, and wanted to join the sporting clubs of Casablanca. For more than a year, Raja only played friendly matches before receiving affiliation to Ligue du Maroc de Football Association at the start of the 1950–51 season, earning the right to join the national football leagues. In 1950, composed of only Moroccan players, Raja began its journey from the lowest tier of the national football structure, and came at the top of the 4th division (Groupe Chaouia-Nord). The team played in the 1st Division (3rd tier) for a single season, finishing second of the 1951-52 edition and earning promotion to the Pré-honneur Division (second tier) where it would play for three seasons before sports competitions were boycotted then stopped in 1955. The following year, Raja will dominate the play-offs and established itself as one of the founding members of Botola under the newly created Royal Moroccan Football Federation, and played the first edition that debuted on 15 November 1956. Since this day, Raja is one of only three clubs never to have been relegated from the top tier of Moroccan football, the others being Wydad AC and AS FAR. After the usurped 1959-60 Botola, Raja struggled to recover and lost two Throne Cup finals in 1965 and 1968. The first two trophies were gained in 1974 and 1977 and the team reached Botola podium five consecutive times between 1972 and 1977, but failed to win the title. This period is marked by players such as Abdelmajid Dolmy, Petchou, Houmane Jarir and Said Ghandi. The following decade was up and down but led to the first Botola title and the 1989 African Champion Clubs' Cup. In the 1990s, Raja established its supremacy on national football by winning six consecutive leagues, and in Africa by gaining many titles in Champions League, African Super Cup and Afro-Asian Cup. In 2000, Raja was the first Arab and African team to qualify for the Club World Cup. This successful period is closely associated with players like Mustapha Moustawdae,

Abdellatif Jrindou, Mustapha Khalif or Mustapha Chadli and managers like Vahid Halilhodžić and Oscar Fulloné who still remain the most successful in the club's history. The 2000s were marked by sporting instability mainly caused by the sale of key players to Europe or to The Gulf and the frequent manager changes. Nevertheless, the club won several national titles: 2003 CAF Cup, 2006 Arab Champions League and lost the 2002 Champions League final. After the 2013 Club World Cup final, Mohamed Boudrika's poor management dragged the club into a big financial crisis and caused setbacks in the league and the Champions League. His successor Said Hasbane did not improve the club's situation and resigned due to popular pressure in 2018. New president Jawad Ziyat got the ball rolling financially and Raja managed to win its first African title in fifteen years. and his first Botola in seven years.

Mount Proteus is a mountain summit in British Columbia, Canada. Description Mount Proteus is located in the Battle Range of the Selkirk Mountains. The remote peak is set approximately south of Glacier National Park. Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains north to Battle Brook which is a tributary of the Incomappleux River, and east into Houston Creek which is a tributary of the Duncan River. Mount Proteus is notable for its steep rise above local terrain as topographic relief is significant with the summit rising 1,200 meters (3,937 ft) above Houston Creek in , and 2,300 meters (7,546 ft) above Battle Brook valley in . History The mountain is named for Proteus, the mythological Greek sea god who was difficult to identify or lay hold of because of his ability to change character, which is also an attribute of this mountain. The mountain's toponym was officially adopted on November 1, 1963, by the Geographical Names Board of Canada. The first ascent of the summit was made in 1947 by Norman Brewster, Andrew J. Kauffman II, and his wife Betty. Climate Based on the Köppen climate classification, Mount Proteus is located in a subarctic climate zone with cold, snowy winters, and mild summers. Winter temperatures can drop below −20 °C with wind chill factors below −30 °C. This climate supports the Proteus Glacier on the west slope and Moby Dick Glacier on the east slope of the peak.

Fernley Douglas Webber (12 March 1918 – 1991), sometimes referred to as Awang F.D. Webber, was a diplomat and formerly the British High Commissioner to Brunei. Biography Early life Webber was born on 12 March 1918, and educated at the Cotham Secondary School. He obtained his Bachelor of Arts (BA) at Jesus College and began work with the Colonial Office in 1939. Amid the outbreak of the Second World War, he served in the military from 1940 until 1945, earning the rank of Major. After his time in the military, he worked as the Private Secretary to Minister of State Colonial Office, as Assistant Secretary in 1950, as Establishment Officer Colonial Office from 1950 to 1958, and lastly the Head of East Africa Department Colonial Office from 1958 to 1965. Diplomatic career Webber's diplomatic career began after being appointed as the Deputy High Commissioner to Kuching in 1965. On 1 August 1965, he became the new high commissioner to Brunei, replacing Edgar O. Liard. During his time in Brunei, he attended key events such as the wedding of Princess Nor'ain Bolkiah in August 1967. Early that year in February, he gave the reassurance of the British government being keen on seeing positive constitutional changes in Brunei. In conjunction to the 1967 Birthday Honours, he awarded the Order of the British Empire Commander (CBE) to Brunei Financial Officer, John Lee. Notably, Webber was appointed as Brunei's Scout Chief. He was transferred to the British High Commission in Canberra in October 1967. Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien III was worried when the Commonwealth Office informed him that F.D. Webber would be moving to Australia. The Sultan wanted him to stay because he was concerned that if the High Commissioner changed, the Commonwealth Office would adopt a much stricter stance regarding Brunei's constitutional progress.

The Battle of Ismailia of 1952 is an armed clash that took place in the city of Ismailia on January 25, 1952, when the Egyptian police forces refused to surrender their weapons and vacate the governorate building to British forces. The clash between Egyptian police and British forces killed 56 Egyptian policemen and wounded 73, and killed 13 British soldiers and wounded 22. The British forces seized the Ismailia Governorate building. Captain Salah Zulfikar was major officer who volunteered in the battle. January 25 turned into the National Police Day that is celebrated every year. It also became a national holiday for Ismailia Governorate, and in 2009 January 25 of each year became an official holiday in Egypt. Background Tensions rose between Egypt and Britain when acts of sabotage and commando activities intensified against their camps, soldiers, and officers in the Canal region, as the British losses as a result of commando operations were heavy, especially in the early stages. Extreme embarrassment. And when the government announced the opening of offices to register the names of camp workers wishing to leave their work and contribute to the national struggle, [91572] workers registered their names in the period from October 16, 1951, to November 30, 1951, and contractors also stopped supplying vegetables, meat, and other supplies necessary for the sustenance of 80,000 soldiers. and a British officer. The British forces embarked on another adventure no less reckless or provocative than their previous attempts to insult and humiliate the Egyptian government until it reversed its decision to cancel the treaty. The Egyptian police forces in Ismailia hand over their weapons to the British forces, evacuate the governorate house and the barracks, leave the entire Canal area, and withdraw to Cairo under the pretext that it is the center of disappearance for the Egyptian fighters fighting against his forces in the Canal region. The province rejected the British ultimatum and reported it to the Minister of the Interior, Fuad Sara al-Din Pasha, who approved its position and asked it to stand firm, resist and not surrender. The British commander in the canal lost his nerve, so his forces, tanks, and armored vehicles attacked the Ismailia police station for the same reason, after he sent an ultimatum to the police station warden asking him to hand over the weapons of his soldiers and soldiers, but the police officers and soldiers refused to accept this

warning. On the morning of Saturday, January 26, 1952, the news of the incident spread throughout Egypt, and the Egyptians received this news with anger and discontent, and massive demonstrations took place in Cairo, and police soldiers participated with university students in their demonstrations, and demonstrations broke out in the streets of Cairo, which were filled with angry masses. This angry atmosphere caused the Cairo fire, and further caused the deterioration of King Farouk's popularity to the highest level, which paved the way for the officers to launch the July 23 Movement led by Major General Mohamed Naguib in the same year. Conflict The British tanks directed their cannons and fired bombs in a focused and brutal manner non-stop for more than an hour. The police forces were armed with nothing but old regular rifles. Before sunset that day, the small police department building and the governorate building in Ismailia were besieged by seven thousand British soldiers equipped with weapons, supported by their heavy Centurion tanks, armored vehicles, and field guns, while the number of besieged Egyptian soldiers did not exceed eight hundred in the barracks and eighty in the governorate. They don't carry guns. The British used all their weapons to bomb the governorate building, yet the Egyptian soldiers resisted and continued to resist with great courage and valor. An unequal battle took place between the British forces and the besieged police forces in the section. This massacre did not stop until the last bullet with them ran out after two long hours of fighting. Among them were 52 dead and 80 wounded, all of whom were soldiers and officers of the police force that was stationed in the department building, and about seventy others were wounded, in addition to a number of civilians and the families of the rest of them. The British also ordered the destruction of some villages around Ismailia, which was believed to be the center of the disappearance of Egyptian fedayeen struggling against his forces, so a number of other civilians were killed or wounded during the British forces' inspections of the villages.

The Gavurbağı massacre happened on July 12, 1946, when the Iraqi police opened fire on Iraqi Turkmen rights protestors in Kirkuk's Gavurbağı park. The protestors all worked for the Kirkuk Oil Company. Massacre Before the massacre, ethnic Turkmen workers were protesting for their rights. On July 7, 1946, the Iraqi Minister of Economy, Baba Ali Sheikh Mahmud, went to the Ministry of Arshad Al-Omari in Kirkuk, pressuring al-Omari to put an end to the protests, one way or another. However, al-Omari could not persuade them to stop protesting, and began using threats and intimidation, which did not work either. Protesting workers responded by gathering in Gavurbağı Park, and then Iraqi police arrived and met them with bullets. 16 workers were killed and 30 injured in the attack.

The Carmel Valley Historical Society (CVHS) is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving and promoting the history of the Carmel Valley region of California. Since its establishment in 1987, the society has played an instrumental role in uncovering and preserving the rich heritage of Carmel Valley, including its natural beauty, cultural diversity, and unique architecture. Through its archival work, events and programs, and efforts to restore historic landmarks, the CVHS is ensuring that the heritage of Carmel Valley is not lost to future generations. History The first meeting of the Carmel Valley Historical Society (CVHS) took place on February 10, 1987 in the Fellowship Hall at the Carmel Valley Community Chapel with 25 people attending. A collections committee had its first meeting at Rosie’s Cracker Barrel on March 9, 1987. The committee acquired a collection of artifacts and memorabilia, including working with local decedents of the Rumsen and Esselen tribes to gather historical information. CVHS was incorporated and became a non-profit organization with a 501(C)(3) status. In 1991, a Board of Directors was formed, and the Society became a member of the Conference of California Historical Societies and the Carmel Valley Chamber of Commerce. CVHS seeks to document and showcase the history of Carmel Valley, from its early Native American inhabitants to the Spanish and Mexican periods, through the American era and up to the present day. CVHS's founding members raised funds to purchase and remodel a building in the Village for research, education, and display of their archives. Past Chairman Stew Clough (1987-1991) and Marvin Pylate (1991) organized and conducted many field trips. Clough held meetings and speeches at local clubs and schools, retirement homes, and libraries promoting the Society. Clough also spearheaded the Carmel Valley’s 1889-1989 Centennial celebration which drew statewide attention and attracted many prominent people. On January 5, 2009, the Carmel Valley History Center for its museum broke ground and was completed in early 2012. The architects were Marj Ingram and Joseph Hertlein. It opened to the public on December 7, 2013. The building, designed as a Western barn, is located just north of the Carmel Valley Road on donated land on the southeast corner of the Carmel Valley Village’s Community Center's Park. Two-thirds of the building's space is used to exhibit 150 years of artifacts from Carmel Valley's history. The Carmel Valley Village Improvement Committee purchased and gave the land to the parks and recreation

department. Exhibits at CVHS bring the history of Carmel Valley up-close and personal. They have included the Robles del Rio story, the Joan Baez exhibit, the Ranching exhibit, the Carmel Valley Fire Department exhibit, and more. The Society’s Exhibit Committee supports the curator throughout the development of each exhibit. Exhibits can also go on the road, which have included the Discovery Center at Palo Corona Regional Park and in the gallery at the Carmel Valley Library. The CVHS's primary goal has been the documenting of oral histories from old timers who knew the valley when farming and ranching were the primary way of life. Audio and video tapes capture insight into historic Carmel Valley life. As many vintage homes and barns were being lost to “progress,” CVHS proceeded to identify and photograph vintage homes and barns connected with Carmel Valley’s early history. CVHS conducts many fund raisers including an annual Rummage Sale, an annual Cowboy Show, and participates in the yearly Carmel Valley Fiesta. Founding member and local artist Julia Harvey designed the CVHS's logo. It was then made into a limited-edition buckle design for the 1889-1989 Carmel Valley Centennial by Carmel Valley silversmith Ken Ramoni and was produced in sterling silver by Diablo Manufacturing Co., of Grass Valley, California. In May 1990, Harvey provided a motto for CVHS, Dedicated to the future of our past. Research library One of the primary goals of the CVHS is to collect and preserve historical artifacts, documents, and photographs related to the history of Carmel Valley. Over 400 items are stored in a specially designed research library at the Society's headquarters. The research library contains a wealth of information about the family histories, documents, periodicals, photographs, and books on the history of Carmel Valley. Books on the history of Monterey County and California are included as historical views of events impacting Carmel Valley history. The books and documents are arranged by category and copies can be made for a small fee. CVHS publishes books, and records filmed histories of notable figures who have contributed to the development of Carmel Valley. In March 2010, founding member and historian Elizabeth Barratt and CVHS wrote the book Images of America, Carmel Valley, about Carmel Valley’s history, its early inhabitants, mission days, and the rancho era. Events and programs In addition to its archival work, the CVHS hosts regular events and programs that are designed to promote

the history and culture of Carmel Valley. These events include lectures, tours, and special exhibitions that showcase the region's natural beauty, unique architecture, and cultural heritage. The Society also publishes a quarterly newsletter, which provides updates on the latest news and events related to the organization and its activities. The online newsletter archives go from the latest newsletter back to the July/November 1990 newsletter. On September 11, 2019, CVHS member and historian, Jeff Ohlson spoke at Double Nickels luncheon about his book, A History of Ranching in Carmel Valley. The book documents the Valley’s history of ranches, ranchers, and cowhands, with two dozen biographies of ranch histories. The CVHS is staffed by a team of volunteers who help preserve the history of Carmel Valley. These volunteers include historians, archivists, educators, and community members who are committed to sharing their knowledge and expertise with others. Perhaps one of the most significant accomplishments of the CVHS is its efforts to restore and preserve historic buildings and landmarks in Carmel Valley. On March 17, 2022, CVHS commemorated the former Carmel Valley Vintage Airfield with a historic marker and Supervisorial Proclamation. The sign was donated by CVHS. The proclamation was presented by Monterey County 5th District Supervisor Mary Adams. By preserving these important landmarks, CVHS is ensuring that future generations will be able to appreciate and learn from the rich history of the valley.

"The Worldwide Privacy Tour" is the second episode of the twenty-sixth season of the American animated television series South Park, and the 321st episode of the series overall. It premiered on February 15, 2023. The episode, which was first announced on February 13, 2023, depicts a visit to the town of South Park by the Prince of Canada and his wife, who say they are seeking privacy and seclusion, which brings them into conflict with fourth grader Kyle Broflovski, in a parody of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's decision to step back as senior members of the royal family in all the Commonwealth realms and their subsequent rebranding. Plot A grief-stricken Ike Broflovski, who is Canadian-American, watches the televised funeral for the Queen of Canada, who died four months ago. The Prince of Canada and his wife receive a poor reception from other attendees because they have been bashing the Canadian monarchy. Ike's monopolizing of the computer prevents his older brother Kyle from appearing online to play a video game with his friends, which results in their leveling up without him, leaving him feeling left out. Butters Stotch tells Kyle that he needs brand management and takes him to CumHammer Brand Management, where an agent named Mr. Davis suggests possible brands, which all include the word "victim". The Prince and his wife go on a tour to promote his memoir and to demand privacy. They move into the house across from the Broflovskis. Though they say they want privacy, their activities, such as playing drums and polo, and setting off fireworks, are disruptive to Kyle. When he complains, they scream at him that he is violating their privacy. Kyle attempts to use the brands suggested to him by Mr. Davis, telling his friends that he is a victim and is working on himself, but they react with indifference. He also persistently complains about the royal couple, which prompts his friends to distance themselves from him. When Kyle's house is plastered with magazine covers featuring the Prince's wife, he tries a brand that says "nothing bothers him". Failing to get a reaction from him, the wife accuses Kyle of victimizing her because she is "ethnic". The Prince then tries to provoke Kyle by exposing himself to Kyle but fails to provoke a reaction from him. The next day, Kyle walks into school with a new look and a more positive

demeanor but learns that Butters is being beaten up by Bebe Stevens because Butters launched an abusively misogynistic tirade against her, which Butters refers to as his "strong and assertive" brand. Kyle goes to CumHammer's offices, where he is confronted by the Prince and his wife, who is consulting with Mr. Davis on how to retaliate against Kyle. Kyle says that when one tries to engineer the image by which others perceive them, it just makes that person a performer instead of a human being. Hearing this, the Prince resolves to do away with magazine covers and television appearances in favor of a more normal life, realizing what is within them defines who they are, and not commodifying oneself as a product. When this gets no response from his wife, he flips open the top half of her head, and inside finds only a chasm from which his voice echoes. The Prince leaves CumHammer without her. Kyle decides to allow Ike his repeat viewings of the Queen's funeral, realizing that this is who Ike is and that he does not care if this negatively affects his standing with his friends. Kyle's friends show up at his door and invite him to play outside to relieve his stress. They go to the local basketball court, where the Prince asks if he can play. When they assent, he sets up his drum set on the edge of the court, playing music as the boys play basketball. Reception John Schwarz with Bubbleblabber.com rated the episode a 8.5 out of 10, and commented "Kyle's attempts at re-branding himself are right on point with those who only define themselves by their social bios and not who they are supposed to be...The Meghan and Harry bit was quite hilarious. Every rip on Canadian culture still holds up, from the constant farting to their wacky accents, they kill me every time. Harry's character design is already fantastic, with a bright red/orange top, he's an instantly recognizable figure that could be a fixture for the show for years to come, or never again, and I would still be able to pick him out." Response from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex Shortly after the episode aired, the Duchess of Sussex was reportedly "upset and overwhelmed" by the episode and refused to watch it in its entirety. A spokesperson for the couple denied rumors that she and Prince Harry

planned to file a lawsuit over the episode.

In filing court papers, Flynn said that she experienced "untold humiliation and loss of reputation" as she gave up her career and hurriedly travelled to New York in anticipation of marriage. In his own defence, Coplin alluded to a discovery he made relating to affairs with other men that Flynn had been involved with. Flynn went before the Supreme Court of the United States in December 1932 seeking emotional damages of $250,000. She married McKinley Bryant, a millionaire racer, in November 1933 in New York.

Daniel Howell (October 26, 1807December 2, 1890) was an American businessman, politician, and Wisconsin pioneer. He was a member of the Wisconsin Senate, representing Jefferson County during the 1854 and 1855 sessions. Biography Daniel Howell was born in Delaware County, New York, and grew up on his family's farm. In 1832, he was one of the co-founders of a town in Chautauqua County, New York, and established the post office there, known then as Salem X Roads. In 1835, he went west to the Michigan Territory, establishing a hotel in the village of White Pigeon, Michigan, which he operated until 1839. Over the next decade, he operated a hotel in Belvidere, Illinois, and then another in Rockford, Illinois, before settling in Jefferson, Wisconsin, where he operated the Jefferson House hotel for several years. In Jefferson County, he was elected as county treasurer in 1852, and then was elected to the Wisconsin Senate in 1853, running on the Democratic Party ticket. He represented Jefferson County in the Senate during the 1854 and 1855 sessions. His reputation was damaged by this political service due to his support of Governor William A. Barstow—he was counted among the "forty thieves" accused of participating in bribery scandals with Barstow. After the 1855 session, he moved to Milwaukee, and finally, in 1859, he moved to the then-remote town of Grand Rapids, Wisconsin, where he operated a merchant business. At the outbreak of the American Civil War, he left his business and raised a company of volunteers for the Union Army, known as the "Evergreens". His company was enrolled as Company G of the 12th Wisconsin Infantry Regiment, and Howell was commissioned as captain of the company. Howell led his company through the first two years of the war, participating in mostly guard and logistics duty in Tennessee and Kentucky. He resigned due to illness in March 1863 and returned to Wisconsin. For a few years after returning, he operated another hotel in partnership with his brother-in-law, Foskett Maynard Putney. He subsequently worked in freight forwarding and sold agricultural equipment until his retirement. He was said to have "made and lost several fortunes". Personal life and family Daniel Howell's father died when he was young, and his mother Mary remarried with Simeon Mulford. Two of Howell's sisters also moved to Waukesha County. His younger sister, Clarissa, married Foskett Maynard Putney, an important pioneer of Waukesha, Wisconsin. Clarissa's

son, Frank Howell Putney, served in Daniel Howell's company in the Civil War and served as an adjutant and staff officer near the end of the war; he later became prominent in politics, served as private secretary to Wisconsin Governor Harrison Ludington, and served as county judge. Daniel Howell was also an uncle of New York lawyer and politician William Townsend, through Townsend's mother, Howell's half-sister Sarah Townsend. Daniel Howell married Elizabeth Jones at Sidney, New York, on September 21, 1828. They had no known children. For many years he was active in Freemasonry, was one of the charter members of the Knights Templar of Milwaukee, and held the rank of grand master at one point. He died at his home in Waukesha on the morning of December 2, 1890.

The Padlock (Italian: Lo catenaccio) is a literary fairy tale written by Giambattista Basile in the Pentamerone, as the ninth story of the second day. The tale is related to the international cycle of the Animal as Bridegroom or The Search for the Lost Husband, where a heroine loses her husband and must search for him. Summary A woman lives in poverty with her three daughters. One day, she sends her daughters to fetch water for them, but her elders try to make the other go in their place. Luciella, the youngest, takes the jug and goes to fetch water herself. At the fountain, she meets a "handsome slave", who makes a proposition for her: if she comes to live with him in a nearby cave, the man will wash her in pretty things. Luciella agrees to his offer, but goes back home to deliver the water to her mother. The girl then accompanies the slave to a nearny cave: inside, an underground palace, filled with gold. She sleeps in an ornate bed, and, after the candles are put out, someone joins her in bed. This continues on for some days. One day, Luciella begins to miss home, and the slave agrees to let her pay a visit to her relatives, but bids her not to tell anything about her new life. The girl obeys at first: she visits her family, but remains steadfast to her mother and sisters's questions and goes back to the underground palace. She visits them time and time again, jealousy creeping even greater in their hearts. The fourth time, Luciella's mother and sisters tell her her mysterious bedmate must be a handsome man with a padlock on his body, and convince her to light a candle to check on this padlock. Moved by her family's words, Luciella returns home and retires to the bedchambers that same night. She is given a sleeping draught, but tosses its contents away and pretends to fall asleep. While her bedmate is asleep, she lights a candle and confirms her family's story: her companion is a handsome youth, and there is a padlock on him. Luciella opens it and sees some women with skeins, one dropping one of the skeins. Luciella, kind that she was, shouts out for the woman to get the skein she dropped, but her voice wakes up the companion at her bedside. Feeling betrayed, the youth

commands some female slaves to dress Luciella in rags and to throw her out of the palace and into the woods. Heavily pregnant and abandoned by her husband, Luciella wanders to the city of Torre-Longa, where she takes shelter with the local queen and gives birth to a beautiful baby in the stables. That same night, a man comes at night and rocks the baby with a song, saying that, if the crows never crowed, he would stay by his son's side. However, as soon as morning comes, the rooster crows and the youth disappears. This goes on for some more days, until the queen's maid witnesses the event and reports to the queen the finding. The queen issues an edict for all roosters to be killed around the city, following the youth's instructions. The next time, the youth appears again, but, this time, the rooster does not crow. The queen embraces the youth, who she recognizes as her son, and breaks his curse. Luciella regains her husband, and the queen is happy she gained a grandson and her son back. Analysis Tale type The tale belongs to the international cycle of The Search for the Lost Husband which corresponds, in the international Aarne-Thompson-Uther Index, to type ATU 425 and its subtypes. The second revision of the index, made in 1961 by scholar Stith Thompson, referred to the tale as "Pentamerone II, No. 9" and listed it under subtypes 425E and 425L. ATU 425E Nancy Canepa indexes it as subtype ATU 425E, "Enchanted Husband Sings Lullaby". In this type, the heroine's husband has a padlock on his body; after she betrays his trust, she is expelled and takes shelter in a castle where she gives birth to their child; at night her husband comes to lull the baby with a song in which there are instructions on how to save him. According to Jan-Öjvind Swahn and Hans-Jörg Uther, Lo Catenaccio is the oldest example of type ATU 425E. AaTh 425L The tale could also be classified as type AaTh 425L, "The Padlock on the Enchanted Husband". In subtype AaTh 425L, the heroine discovers a padlock or keyhole on her husband's body; she opens it and sees strange sights within; her scream alerts the enchanted husband, who expels his (pregnant) wife. However, German folklorist Hans-Jörg Uther, in his 2004 revision of the international index, subsumed type AaTh 425L under new type

ATU 425E. Motifs Scholar , in his monograph about Cupid and Psyche, remarked that the heroine's pregnancy was an "essential" trait of subtype AaTh 425L. Variants Nancy Canepa locates similar stories in Turkey and Greece, and supposes that Basile's tale may have originated from this region. Likewise, according to the Greek Folktale Catalogue, type 425E is "popular" in Turkey and Greece, while type 425L is known across the Greek Agean Islands and in Asia Minor. On the other hand, Swahn restricted the former subtype to Italy and Catalonia. Italy The "Istituto centrale per i beni sonori ed audiovisivi" ("Central Institute of Sound and Audiovisual Heritage") promoted research and registration throughout the Italian territory between the years 1968–1969 and 1972. In 1975 the Institute published a catalog edited by and Liliana Serafini reported 4 variants of subtype 425E, under the banner Il marito incantato canta la ninna nanna ("The Enchanted Husband Sings Lullaby"). They also reported a single variant of subtype 425L, Il lucchetto sul marito incantato, which they also classified as the former. Scholar Jack Zipes translated a Sicilian tale collected by Giuseppe Pitrè. In this tale, titled Lu re d’Anìmmulu ("King Animmulu"), a poor shoemaker lives with his three daughters Peppa, Nina and Nunzia. One day, Nunzia finds a large fennel plant in the forest and tries to pull it, without luck, so her father helps her. They pull it and see a doorway and a young man. The pair explain to the youth that they were just gathering some herbs for a soup, and the youth makes a proposition: he shall take Nunzia and make her father rich. The pair agree, and Nunzia goes with the youth to live in his lavish underground palace. Some time later, Peppa convinces her father to let her pay a visit to Nunzia. Their father takes her there, and Peppa enters the underground palace. Nunzia welcomes her and asks her to comb her hair. While doing it, she finds a key in her hair, which she takes while Nunzia is asleep. Peppa uses the key to open a secret room; inside, pretty young women doing embroidery for Nunzia's unborn child, but, as soon as they see Peppa, their faces turn old and ugly. Peppa closes the door and wakes his sister up to take her out of the palace. She explains she opened the forbidden door, and Nunzia says she is lost.

Peppa departs. The pretty young women, who are fairies, order Nunzia's husband to banish her. With no other option, the youth banishes a pregnant Nunzia, but gives her a silver yarn, for her to throw it and follow it. Nunzia complies with his decision, but follows his advice and reaches King Animmulu's mother's castle, where she is given shelter. Nunzia gives birth to a son, whom a maidservant recognizes as the spitting image of the queen's son. She goes to inform the queen. Meanwhile, back to the underground palace, the fairies inform King Animmulu that Nunzia gave birth to his son, and suggest they pay them a visit. King Animmulu enters Nunzia's chambers and sings a lullaby to their baby, while the fairies dance outside and sing about how the dawn has not come yet. King Animmulu disappears witg the fairies by morning. The next night, King Animmulu comes again and Nunzia asks him how they can defeat the fairies; he answers: they must stop the crows from singing, muffle the bells and clocks, and erect a dark canvas around the castle painted like the night sky to trick the fairies so they think it is not yet dawn. Nunzia and the queen follow his instructions and prepare the canvas for the following night: the fairies dance, thinking it is still night, until the queen's servants draw out the canvas when the sun is in mid-heaven; the fairies then change into snakes and lizards. King Animmulu is free at last and lives with Nunzia, his son and his mother. Spain Catalan scholars and register a similar type in the index of Catalan rondallas ('fairy tales'), with the typing 425E, El príncep encantat canta una cançó de bressol. Romania Romanian scholar Lazar Saineanu provided the summary of a Romanian tale collected by author Petre Ispirescu. In this tale, titled Fětů frumosă şi fata negustorului ("Fat-Frumos and the Merchant's Daughter"), before he leaves on a journey, a merchant asks his three daughters what presents he can bring them: the elder asks for a present the colour of the sky, the middle one for something of silk, and the third for a knife entirely green. The merchant buys the first two items, but cannot seem to find the green knife and sighs. Suddenly, an Arab appears to him, and asks why he was summoned. The Arab promises to give the green knife to

the merchant in exchange for the third daughter, who is to be blindfolded and given to his master, an enchanted prince. A deal is made, and the merchant's youngest daughter is delivered to the Arab and taken to a palace, where she is waited on and given food and drinks. She is also given a sleeping potion; she drinks and falls asleep. The next day, she realizes that someone has joined her in bed. Sometime later, she begins to miss home, and asks the Arab to be allowed to visit her family. She goes back home and tells her mother about her new living arrangements, and her mother advises her to pretend to be asleep and to have a light source next to her to see who is her mysterious bedmate. The girl follows her mother's instructions and lights up a candle: next to her, a man with a key on his head and a padlock on his navel. She takes a peek inside the padlock and sees a large yard where everyone was making arrangements for the child she is going to have. The girl then brings the candle next to her bedmate's face and sees a handsome youth, but a drop of wax falls on his body and wakes him up. The prince senes his wife betrayed him, and orders his Arab servants to kill her and bring her eyes as proof of their deed. The Arab servants, however, take pity on her and let her go. The girl, pregnant, wanders off until she reaches a palace that belongs to her sister-in-law. She is given shelter, and sees that her husband comes to visit his sister. The girl then leaves and arrives at the palace of his second sister-in-law, then lastly to her youngest sister-in-law, where she is also given shelter. The enchanted prince comes in and explains to his youngest sister the whole story, while the girl is giving birth to her child, a boy with a key on the front, a padlock on the navel, the sun on his chest, the moon on his back and the Morning Star on his shoulders. The enchanted prince recognizes the boy as his son and the woman as his wife, and they reconcile. Turkey A similar narrative is attested in the Typen türkischer Volksmärchen ("Turkish Folktale Catalogue"), devised by scholars Wolfram Eberhard and Pertev Naili Boratav. According to their

system, abbreviated as TTV, EbBo or EB, in type TTV 104, Die Traube II, with 14 variants registered. In the Turkish tale type, a father asks his three daughters what presents he can bring them, and the youngest asks for something unique; the girl is given to a mysterious man as his wife; one night, she lights up a candle and finds a padlock on his body; she is banished from their marital home and takes shelter with her sisters-in-law.

On February 13, 2023, a mass shooting occurred in two buildings on the campus of Michigan State University (MSU) in East Lansing. Three students were killed and five others injured. The gunman, 43-year-old Anthony Dwayne McRae, died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound when he was confronted by police off campus. In the aftermath of the shooting, classes at MSU were cancelled for the remainder of the week, and they were relocated from the two buildings where the shootings took place for the remainder of the semester. Students and their supporters protested against gun violence at the Michigan State Capitol, and lawmakers promised gun control reforms. Shootings At 8:18 p.m. EST on February 13, 2023, shots were fired in Berkey Hall on Michigan State University's campus. MSU officials sent an alert tweet and text. Students were directed to, "run, hide, fight." A shelter-in-place order was subsequently issued. The gunman, Anthony McRae, entered Room 114 in Berkey Hall where Marco Díaz-Muñoz was teaching. McRae fired repeatedly into the classroom, hitting seven students, including Arielle Anderson and Alexandria Verner, who were fatally wounded. Emergency service dispatch logs indicate that another student was shot in Room 135. Díaz-Muñoz tried to hold the door to the classroom shut while his students took shelter, and broke windows to evacuate. Some students escaped through broken windows while others stayed to help their injured classmates, putting pressure on wounds and fashioning a tourniquet from a belt. Díaz-Muñoz estimated that police arrived 10 to 15 minutes after the shooting. McRae left Berkey Hall and walked to the MSU Union building, where he killed Brian Fraser; five others were injured between the two locations. McRae then left the north side of the Union, near the campus border. East Lansing residents living near the campus were also asked to shelter in place. Police responded to the call within minutes of the shooting taking place. There was a coordinated effort of local, state, and federal law enforcement with hundreds of officers assisting, as well as other emergency services. Approximately 30 fire engines, ambulances, and other emergency vehicles were present by the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum on Grand River Avenue in downtown East Lansing. McRae later died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound at around 11:35 p.m. after he was confronted by police off campus, in Lansing. Michigan State Police reported that McRae had two 9 mm handguns, eight or nine loaded

magazines, and 50 rounds of loose ammunition. Victims Eight people were shot, resulting in three dead and five injured. All of the victims of the shooting were Michigan State students. Three were killed: Arielle Diamond Anderson, a junior from Grosse Pointe, Michigan; Brian Fraser, a sophomore and Phi Delta Theta chapter president from Grosse Pointe; and Alexandria Verner, a junior from Clawson, Michigan. Another five students were injured in the shooting. Four of the five injured victims required surgery, and one was taken directly to the ICU. All five were in critical condition. One injured victim was Guadalupe Huapilla-Perez, a junior from Immokalee, Florida. Two others who were injured were Chinese international students; one of them, John Hao, was paralyzed from the chest down. By February 21, one of the victims had been upgraded from critical to stable condition and two students had been upgraded to serious condition. On February 23, one of the victims was released from the hospital. Of the four remaining students in the hospital, one remained in critical condition, two were in serious condition, and one was in stable condition. Perpetrator Anthony Dwayne McRae (June 10, 1979 – February 13, 2023), a 43-year-old Lansing resident, was the gunman. McRae had no known connection to the university. McRae was born in Bear, Delaware, raised in Trenton, New Jersey, and moved to Michigan in 2003. McRae was arrested in June 2019 for carrying a weapon without a concealed pistol license. Initially charged with a felony, he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor unlawful possession of a loaded firearm as part of a plea agreement in November 2019. He was originally sentenced to twelve months' probation, which was later extended to 18 months, and in May 2021, he was discharged from probation. Because McRae was not convicted of a felony, his ban on possessing weapons ended with the end of his probation. The decision to allow McRae to plead to a misdemeanor instead of a felony has proven controversial. Former Ingham County prosecutor Carol Siemon was criticized for her decision to limit the use of felony charges for firearms possession. In response Siemon described the plea deal as standard practice, saying that "nationally, about 95 percent of all criminal charges are resolved by pleas". McRae's father said his son had anger issues, and, after the death of his mother in 2020, he became reclusive and socially isolated and "started to get

evil and mean, and he didn't care about anything anymore." He described his son as "evil angry." According to the father, McRae had worked for about seven years at a warehouse loading trucks but quit his job shortly after his mother's death. McRae's sister, who had not seen McRae since her mother's funeral in 2020, described her brother as socially isolated and hostile, and often transient. At the time of the shooting, McRae lived in his father's home in Lansing, northwest of MSU's campus. A note found in McRae's possession included threats to MSU, other local businesses include the Meijer warehouse where he had previously been employed, and two New Jersey public schools. McRae also claimed to lead a group of 20 people who were involved in his attacks, a claim that was dismissed by a Michigan State Police spokesperson. In the immediate aftermath of the shooting, an internet hoax that incorrectly identified the perpetrator spread on social media. Aftermath The shelter-in-place order was rescinded following the gunman's death. All MSU activities were canceled for 48 hours, and classes were canceled until the following Monday. Classes in Berkey Hall and the Union were relocated for the remainder of the spring semester, and Berkey Hall was to remain closed for the remainder of the semester. Undergraduates were given the option to have grades reported as credit/no credit instead of the usual grade for spring semester classes. Counseling services were offered to members of the East Lansing and Michigan State communities at Hannah Community Center in East Lansing from February 14, with additional on-campus locations being added the following day. East Lansing closed all city offices and canceled a city council meeting on February 14, and continued to operate on a limited basis on February 15. Public schools in East Lansing and neighboring school districts canceled classes on the day after the shooting. Schools in Ewing Township, New Jersey were also closed after McRae was found carrying a note threatening two Ewing Public Schools. Memorials and vigils The Rock was painted to commemorate the victims with "How many more?" written in red paint and flowers were left at both it and the Sparty statue near the football stadium. The following day this was repainted with a pro-gun message "Allow us to defend ourselves & carry on campus". In a break with tradition that the Rock should not be repainted on a single

day, this message was painted over and replaced with "To those we lost. To those healing. Brian. Arielle. Alexandria." The Rock was painted a third time that day by Detroit-based artist Anthony Lee at the university's request. Lee's artwork included the Spartan logo and the message "Always a Spartan. Brian. Arielle. Alexandria." Staff from the MSU Herbarium collected and pressed three flowers from the memorial at the Rock as part of the herbarium's role to preserve plants of cultural and historical value. Memorials and vigils for the victims were planned for the victims across Michigan with some also offering the ability to write letters to MSU students or representatives, and interact with comfort dogs. A vigil at the Rock on the evening of February 15 drew thousands of students and community members. Speakers included Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, interim MSU president Teresa Woodruff, basketball coach Tom Izzo, and representatives of the Board of Trustees, and student government. Vigils were also held at the University of Michigan, and in Grosse Pointe and Clawson, homes of the murdered students. Although the state House of Representatives was not in session, members gathered to recognize the dead and injured, and to honor law enforcement, emergency responders and medical staff who responded to the shooting. University officials created the Spartan Strong Fund to pay medical bills for the survivors of the shooting, and announced that they would cover any shortfall. Shortly after the shooting, GoFundMe launched a hub of verified fundraisers that would benefit those impacted by the shooting. Gun violence protest Michigan State students organized a sit-down protest at the State Capitol on February 15 pushing for legislation and commonsense gun laws. Speakers at the rally also included students from Oxford High School, the site of a school shooting in 2021. Maya Manuel, the organizer of the rally, wanted politicians to "understand what's life like in our shoes and to understand how we feel". Students sat cross-legged in front of the Capitol steps, assuming the position they have been trained to adopt in the active-shooter trainings that people of their generation have been trained in through their schooling. Manuel asked this of the legislators saying "before you act like you understand us, please take a moment to sit with us and to listen to us". Legislators present were asked to sit or stand in front of the students. United States Representative Elissa Slotkin, Michigan

Attorney General Dana Nessel, state Senator Winnie Brinks, and state House Speaker Joe Tate were among those in attendance. Michigan State students and their supporters returned to the Capitol on February 17 for an "End Gun Violence" protest. Ellie Baden, one of the organizers, addressed the crowd and said "we need our elected officials to vow that this cannot and will not happen again". Legislators addressing the crowd included Sam Singh, the Democratic state senator representing East Lansing, and Julie Brixie, the Democratic state representative for Okemos. Responses On February 14, the day after the shooting, Whitmer ordered all flags in Michigan to be flown at half-staff in honor of the victims. United States President Joe Biden expressed condolences, and called for gun control. Biden noted that he was speaking on the fifth anniversary of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting. Whitmer and several Michigan members of Congress expressed condolences. Whitmer also expressed concern about gun violence, calling it a "uniquely American problem" and stated that living with such a potential threat was not sustainable. Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson described the incident as "unfathomable" and proceeded to call for greater action targeting gun violence. Ingham County government issued a statement saying they were "deeply saddened" by the shooting and thanked emergency responders and healthcare workers. Ingham County Health Officer Linda Vail comments on the fact that "gun violence...is complex and deeply rooted in our culture which is why we must take a public health approach". Dana Nessel wrote in a statement that "The events at Michigan State University are a tragedy for the entire state of Michigan. My thoughts are with the victims, their families, friends, and loved ones." She told CNN in an interview that she was "not sure why" McRae's probation had been extended multiple times. She noted that the shooting had left "a lot of unanswered questions. And we're going to be digging deep into this to find out." Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), expressed outrage at the lack of change since the 2021 Oxford High School shooting, saying, "As the representative of Oxford, Michigan, I cannot believe that I am here again doing this 15 months later...And I would say that you either care about protecting kids or you don't." Michigan House of Representatives member Ranjeev Puri released a statement which included the phrase "Fuck your thoughts and prayers." Many students and parents expressed their fear

and anxiety about the shooting and trying to find out friends and loved ones' statuses, stating that it felt surreal and unimaginable. Gun control debate Democrats in the Michigan State Senate introduced "nearly [a] dozen" bills focused on gun control and gun safety on February 16. Many of the bills were reportedly drafted in response to the Oxford High School shooting. Prior attempts at gun law reform was blocked by Republicans in 2022 in the aftermath of the Uvalde school shooting, and before that, when gun reform was attempted in the aftermath of the Oxford shooting, but Democrats gained control of both houses of state government in the 2022 elections. Nineteen days before the MSU shooting, Whitmer had criticized the state legislature for failing to pass gun laws after the Oxford High School shooting and called for the passage of universal background checks, safe storage laws, and extreme-risk protection orders. Connections to other shootings Some students who were on campus at the time of the shooting were impacted by other mass shootings; one had been at Oxford High School during the 2021 shooting, while another had FaceTimed with friends in Oxford High School while at another school, and another student had been put on lockdown at a different school in Newtown, Connecticut, during the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.

Description Pterostylis angulata is a herbaceous terrestrial orchid with a basal rosette of 4-7 ovate leaves, dark blue-green in colour, each measuring long and wide. This rosette is present on both flowering and non-flowering plants. When flowering, this species produces a single flower on a stalk measuring tall with 3-5 stem leaves. The flowers are a translucent white with green stripes and markings, long. Flowering occurs from August to September. Taxonomy and naming Diplodium angulatum was first formally described in 2017 by David L. Jones and Christopher J. French in the Australian Orchid Review, based on a type specimen collected in 1994. The specific epithet was derived from the Latin word angulatus, meaning 'angular', in reference to the angular nature of the flowers. In 2018, Jones and French transferred the species to the genus Pterostylis as P. angulata in a later edition of Australian Orchid Review. Prior to its formal description in 2017, informal names used to refer to this species in various publications included Pterostylis aff. nana, Pterostylis sp. 'Helena River', and Pterostylis sp. 'limestone'. Distribution and habitat Pterostylis angulata'' is restricted to south-western Western Australia, with a somewhat coastal distribution ranging between Perth in the north and Bunbury in the south, reaching as far east as York and Collie. It is common within this range, which includes a number of reserves and national parks, though populations in some locations have declined due to fires and soil disturbance. It can be found in a variety of habitats including woodlands, swamps, and coastal forests and heaths. It tolerates a range of soil conditions, from sandy soils to heavy clay loams. Conservation status This snail orchid is listed as "not threatened" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions.

The Ram 1500 Revolution Electric Vehicle (REV) is a battery electric full-size light duty truck based on the fifth generation Ram, announced by FCA US LLC. in July 2021, and first revealed to the public as a concept vehicle in January 2023. History In July 2021, Stellantis announced the ongoing development of an electrified Ram pickup as part of Stellantis EV DAY 2021, including early concept drawings of the vehicle, and stating that a full size battery electric Ram would arrive by 2024. There is also reference to a future range-extender plug-in hybrid model. The Ram Revolution Concept vehicle was revealed on Ram social media outlets in January 2023, showcasing a futuristic design and various high-tech features, including an augmented reality head-up display, rear suicide doors, and a collapsible pass-through between the bed and cab. A webpage on the Ram website also went live for the concept model. Shortly after, the concept made its first physical appearance at the 2023 Consumer Electronics Show. A press release by Stellantis stated that the vehicle would be based on their new STLA platform specifically designed for full-size body-on-frame EVs, will be powered by dual electric motors in an all-wheel drive configuration, and will be based on an 800-volt architecture. It is claimed that the concept pickup offers 4 wheel steering, and charging speeds up to 350 kilowatts, which would allow for adding up to 100 miles of range in approximately 10 minutes of charging. In February 2023, a commercial "Premature Electrification" was shown during the 2023 Super Bowl, humorously parodying premature ejaculation advertisements in referring to EV adoption hurdles such as range anxiety, and featuring Canadian-American actor Jason Jones. The commercial reveals for the first time a pre-production model that shares much of its exterior and interior with the current fifth generation Ram pickup, with appearance changes to most notably the front fascia. The ad also confirms the shortened name of Ram REV (said as "rev"), availability in the US expected in late 2024, and "Range-lengthening technology to come later". Following the Super Bowl advertisement, reservations were opened on the Ram REV webpage, allowing users to pay a refundable fee to become a Ram REV Insider+ member, with the promise of exclusive privileges such as early access to pre-orders and invitations to events such as first looks and test drives as they become available. Description As of February 2023, what has been revealed

of the REV shows the truck being based on the fifth-generation Ram, sharing much of its exterior and interior with the standard internal combustion model. Most notably altered is the front fascia of the vehicle, to improve aerodynamics as there is no need for a large grille opening. The REV features unique headlights, front bumper, and hood to accommodate the front trunk ("frunk"). The rear of the truck also has unique differences such as taillights that extend onto the tailgate. A single charge port is located on the front left fender of the vehicle, containing a CCS Combo connector and charging status indicator LEDs.

Piabucus dentatus, also called the chin tetra or the coastal piabucus, is a small freshwater fish from the rivers of South America. It has a wide range that includes multiple coastal drainage systems, and was once mistakenly cited from Peru. Preferred habitats are generally high in silt content and are slow-moving, including floodplain streams and estuaries. It is one of the earliest known South American fish in Northern ichthyology, believed to have been recorded first in 1648. It did not have a standard scientific name until 1766, though it had an earlier description in 1763 without a binomial moniker. German botanist Joseph Gottlieb Kölreuter was responsible for the 1763 description, while Swedish taxonomist Carl Linnaeus prescribed its first true scientific name - Salmo argentinus - in 1766. Description Piabucus dentatus reaches a maximum length of 12.9 cm (5.1 in) SL (standard length), which makes it the largest of its genus. It has a generally slender body with a deep chest and long pectoral fins, which are characteristics that differentiate Piabucus from sister genus Iguanodectes. It is elongated and slight, with a compressed "torpedo" shape. It has a generally silvery color with a dark lateral stripe; its scales may reflect blue light ventrally, and its lateral line may contain yellow-gold and green. Congener Piabucus melanostoma has a distinctive patch of dark coloration on the lower jaw often absent in related species, but similar markings can be found on some specimens of P. dentatus. The presence of an adipose fin can be used to differentiate P. dentatus from its similar congeners. Notable morphometric characteristics include 80-84 perforated scales in the lateral line, 11 dorsal-fin rays, and 45-46 anal-fin rays. The dorsal and ventral fins are short, and the middle rays of the caudal fin are often pigmented, but the fins otherwise lack markings. Juvenile P. dentatus have rounder heads, smaller mouths, and a body that is proportionally elongate. Starting at a length of roughly 2 cm, juveniles start to resemble small adults. Sexual dimorphism Sexual dimorphism is minor in P. dentatus, but present. Males tend to reach larger measurements in SL than females, and the anal fin is longer, with the last branched fin-ray reaching past the origin of the caudal fin. The anal fin is also more robust in males - specifically, the scaled anal-fin rays (lepidotrichia, meaning "scaled hair") are thicker, with sturdier segments (hemitrichia, meaning "partial hair") in the

halves that make them up. Males from all three species of Piabucus also develop lappets (fleshy extensions) and small hooks on the foremost few rays of the anal fin. Taxonomy Piabucus dentatus was the only member of the genus Piabucus upon introduction in 1817 by German biologist Lorenz Oken. P. dentatus became the type species therein by way of monotypy. Prior, P. dentatus was referred to as Salmo argentinus. When first described by Joseph Gottlieb Kölreuter in 1763, P. dentatus did not have a binomial name, though Kölreuter did introduce the now-obsolete genus Piabucu. Piabucu was based on the work of German naturalist Georg Marcgrave, in his 1648 book Historia Naturalis Brasiliae. Marcgrave's Piabucu is considered in modern research to be equivalent to P. dentatus, making it one of the earliest-recorded South American fishes in Northern ichthyology. There are multiple reports that the baisonym of P. dentatus is Trutta dentata, partially because American ichthyologist James Erwin Böhlke reported as much in a 1954 paper. Subsequently, French ichthyologist Jacques Géry did the same in a paper from 1972. However, "trutta dentata" is a Latin term that means "toothed trout", and was not a scientific name in the strictest sense; rather, it is an outdated label for classifying fish, and comes in opposition to "trutta edentula", which means "toothless trout", wherein "trout" was generally used to refer to morphology as opposed to phylogeny. (To this day, dentition - or lack thereof - remains a morphometric feature that can be used to differentiate fish species of similar superficial appearance.) Furthermore, the Biodiversity Heritage Library has records of the phrase "trutta dentata" dating back to the year 1740, but "trutta" as a genus was not in use by ichthyologists until 1764, named by French zoologist François Alexandre Pierre de Garsault. P. dentatus could not have realistically been considered a member of genus Trutta in 1763, because Trutta did not exist in the generic sense; rather, it was more of a rough grouping, without the standardization of modern taxonomy. (The genus Trutta is now considered obsolete, having been synonymized with genus Salmo.) As such, its true baisonym is most likely Salmo argentinus, prescribed by Swedish taxonomist Carl Linnaeus in 1766. The report from Koelreuter in 1763 remains its original description, despite the species not having a standard name at the time. Etymology The specific epithet "dentatus" refers to the dense set of 16 teeth present

at the end of each mandible, as "dentatus" means "teeth". "Piabucus" is a Latinization of the Brazilian word "piabucu", which was and is used to refer to various small fishes of similar appearance. The common name "chin tetra" actually originates in markings seen on Piabucus melanostoma. P. melanostoma has a dark patch on the lower jaw, but is otherwise similar to its congeners, which means that all three are sometimes referred to by the same common name. The common name "coastal piabucus" comes from the fact that P. dentatus is common in estuaries and brackish waters along the northeastern coast of South America. Distribution and habitat Piabucus dentatus is a coastal dweller, found in river drainages from Venezuela's Paria Gulf to the mouth of the Amazon river. It demonstrates a preference for silty, turbid waters, including estuaries, floodplain streams, and various river tributaries, which places it in some brackish environments. Ichthyologist Carl H. Eigenmann once mistakenly cited it from Peru, and further instances from Bolivia are misidentifications. Though infrequent, it is found in Suriname. Diet and ecology Examination of stomach contents has shown that P. dentatus is a generalist feeder with a preference for algae and decaying plant matter, though it also targets microscopic invertebrates. Its varied diet earns it different classifications across various studies; it is classified as a detritivore based on its consumption of leaf litter, a micropredator based on its consumption of micro-invertebrates, or an algivore based on its consumption of various types of algae. Piabucus dentatus is known to be a schooling fish with a non-confrontational temperament. It tends to dwell near the surface of the water, and is often an active swimmer. Little is known of specific reproductive habits, but aspects of its biology indicate that it is likely an egg-scattering species that does not guard its young. Presence and behavior in aquaria While P. dentatus is known from the aquarium trade, and congeners are also seen in the industry, information on species-specific behavior and care is somewhat limited. Hobbyists report a generally pleasant disposition, but its large size in comparison to other aquarium tetras results in an intimidating presence for smaller fishes; still, it is often an appropriate addition to a community tank. It is known to be a generalist feeder that will accept most flake and pellet food, as well as biting at soft-leaved aquarium plants and hair algae. Conservation status Piabucus dentatus

is considered a species of least concern by the IUCN. While it lives in habitats under various anthropogenic pressures, including dam construction, oil drilling, and infrastructural development, there is no evidence of an immediate population threat. For instance, one study demonstrated that hydroelectric dam construction decreased general species diversity, but P. dentatus in particular seemed to suffer only mild consequences.

The Astronomers Monument in front of Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles, California is a New Deal artwork created under the auspices of the Public Works of Art Project. The large outdoor concrete sculpture honors the work of six great astronomers and is a Griffith Park landmark in its own right. History and design The Astronomers Monument pays homage to six of the greatest astronomers of all time: Hipparchus (), Nicolaus Copernicus (1473–1543), Galileo Galilei (1564–1642), Johannes Kepler (1571–1630), Isaac Newton (1642–1727), and William Herschel (1738–1822). Soon after the Public Works of Art Project (PWAP) began in December 1933, in cooperation with the Los Angeles Park Commission, PWAP commissioned a sculpture project on the grounds of the Griffith Observatory, which was then under construction. Using a design by local artist Archibald Garner and materials donated by the Women's Auxiliary of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, Garner and five other artistsRoger Noble Burnham (creator of USC's Tommy Trojan), Djey El Djey (1905-1980, real name Djey Owens), Gordon Newell (1905–1998), George Stanley (creator of the famous Oscar statuette presented at the Academy Awards), and Arnold Foerster (1878–1943)sculpted and cast the concrete monument and figures. Each artist was responsible for sculpting one astronomer: Stanley did Newton, Garner sculpted Copernicus, Newell was responsible for Kepler, etc. (Burnham may have done Hershel; the authorship of the Hipparchus and Galileo figures is unclear.) According to the Los Angeles Times art critic Arthur Millier in 1934, the "original idea" was Foerster's, and he was "responsible for the delicate engineering entailed in pouring a forty-foot concrete shaft." The monument is topped with an armillary sphere, originally concrete, replaced with a bronze piece in 1991. On November 25, 1934, almost six months prior to the opening of the Observatory on May 14, 1935, a celebration took place to mark completion of the Astronomers Monument. The only "signature" on the Astronomers Monument is "PWAP 1934," referring to the program which funded the project and the year in which it was completed.
