# Edward Sucharda

Edward Sucharda (18 June 1891 – 26 July 1947) was a renowned Polish chemist and engineer. He was rector of Lwów University of Technology from 1938 to 1939 and vice-rector of Wrocław University of Technology from 1945 to 1947.

## Scientific activity

Edward Sucharda's work was distinguished by four main areas of interest:
The first was related to the chemistry of nitrogen heterocyclic compounds, which he took over from his mentor, Prof. Niementowski . It included the development of synthesis of azaaromatic compounds: derivatives of pyridine, naphthyridine and phenanthroline (pupils and co-workers: Bogusław Bobrański, Henryk Kuczyński, C. Troszkiewicz, Zofia Skrowaczewska). Another important work was the synthesis of indigo and its derivatives by an ortho-condensation route (jointly with Edwin Płażek).
The second separate field of interest of Prof. Suchardy was the quantitative analysis of organic compounds. In 1928, together with B. Bobrański, he presented a completely new method for determining the carbon and hydrogen content in organic compounds, while adapting the Pregl method (for the determination of nitrogen). The method has been widely described and used around the world.
The third group of interests were issues of a technological nature in close cooperation with the Boruta dye factory in Zgierz and the oil industry in Drohobych (collaborators: Tadeusz Mazoński, H. Kuczyński and Leonard Kuczyński).
The last topic appeared around 1936 and concerned the chemistry and processing of terpenoid products, including for example, the problem of obtaining camphor. Later he spent several years studying the structures of terpene compounds (co-workers: H. and L. Kuczyński).
In total, he published 57 scientific papers, submitted 5 patents and co-authored two high school textbooks.
# Thofania d'Adamo

Thofania d'Adamo or Teofania di Adamo, Epifania d'Adamo or La Tofania (died 12 July 1633, Palermo) was an Italian poisoner.

## Case

d'Adamo was executed for having poisoned her late spouse Francesco d'Adamo and for having trafficked in illegal lethal poison. She was preceded by Francesca La Sarda, who was executed for having trafficked in illegal lethal poison the year prior. The two women were accused of having sold poison together in Palermo. The case attracted a lot of attention and the investigation was conducted on the orders of Fernando Afán de Ribera.

## Legacy

The case is first mentioned in the Compendio di diversi successi in Palermo dall’anno 1632 by Baldassare Zamparrone (1581–1648). The contemporary diarist Gaetano Alessis described in Notizie piacevoli e curiose ossia aneddoti…, in which he claimed that the poison Aqua Tofana was invented by her and named after her.
Thofania d'Adamo are known in history as the alleged mother of the famous poisoner Giulia Tofana. According to legend, Giulia Tofana fled to Rome after the execution of her mother Thofania d'Adamo, founded a new business selling poison in Rome, and named the poison Aqua Tofana after her mother. However, this appears to have been a myth, inspired by a hypothesis in the 19th century. Giulia Tofana, whose actual name was Giulia Mangiardi, left Palermo for Rome in 1624 and not 1633; and while she does appear to have founded a business selling poison In Rome, which she eventuelly left to her stepdaughter Gironima Spana, there is nothing to indicate that Thofania d'Adamo was the mother of Giulia Mangiardi, although she may have been her disciple.
# Gareth Abraham

Gareth John Abraham (born 13 February 1969) is a Welsh former professional footballer who played as a defender. He made over 100 appearances in The Football League with Cardiff City and Hereford United before playing non-league football for Merthyr Tydfil and Rhayader Town.

## Career

Born in Merthyr Tydfil, Abraham came through the youth ranks at Cardiff City, captaining them to a Welsh Youth Cup win, before making his debut in 1987 during a 3–0 defeat to Wrexham. Three days after his debut, he scored his first goal for the club when he found the net in a 3–1 victory over Darlington but did not appear for the Bluebirds again for the rest of the season as the team won promotion from the Fourth Division. It was during the 1988–89 season that he began to establish himself in the first team but during his time at the club Cardiff found themselves hovering above relegation from the Football League.
He found himself out of the side in 1991–92 season and left the club to join Hereford United in January 1992, making his debut in a 1–1 draw with Barnet. He spent one and a half seasons with Hereford before leaving for his hometown team of Merthyr Tydfil, also working as a groundsman at the club. After spending over five years at Merthyr, Abraham spent a short time in the Welsh Premier League with Rhayader Town alongside former Cardiff teammate Cohen Griffith until the pair left the club by mutual consent in January 2002.

# Baïne

A baïne is a pool of water of a few dozen to several hundred metres in length, parallel to the beach and directly connected to the sea. Each one is spaced every 300 to 400 metres and formed under the influence of waves and the tide. The French term baïne is typical for the Aquitaine coast of France in the departments of Gironde, Charente-Maritime and Landes, but it can occur on beaches throughout the world.
When a wave hits the coast, it can pass over the sandbar that separates the baïne from the sea and enter it all along its length. When the wave subsequently recedes, the baïne water is pushed out through the single point where it was connected to the sea. At this point a rip current, a very strong offshore current, can occur. The current will vary depending on the height of the waves and the height of the tide. It is at its strongest and most dangerous during the final hours approaching low tide, and in the first hours afterwards. Swimmers caught in this current are advised not to resist but to let themselves be carried out to sea where the current is weaker, then to swim parallel to the beach before attempting to approach the shore.

## Development of a baïne

Baïnes appear where the phenomenon of tide is strong, the sand fine, the beach flat with a strong swell. The swell moves the sand along the shore, interfering with current perpendicular to the beach. These currents prevail seaward the sandy bottom and digging pits visible at low tide of up to 100 meters wide and 4-5 meters deep. Each baïne has its own morphology and generates various forms of currents.

# Michel Bataille

Michel Bataille (March 25, 1926 – February 28, 2008) was a French writer.

## Biography

Bataille studied architecture at École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts, and took part in projects with Le Corbusier. Thirteen years later, he left architecture due to deafness problems, and devoted himself to writing. Living in Paris, and then in Saint Cloud, he ultimately chose Normandy to settle with his family, consisting of his wife, painter Marie Claude, and his children Frédéric, Eric, Emmanuelle, and Nicolas.
In 1947 he won the Stendhal Prize for his first novel, Patrick, and in 1950, after the publication of La marche du soleil (written during a trip to Africa), he temporarily stopped writing.
His job as an architect inspired him to write Une pyramide sur la mer in 1965, and La ville des fous in 1966. He was a guest of Bernard Pivot and Jacques Chancel on several occasions. His novel L'arbre de Noël (1967) qualified in the first two rounds of the Prix Goncourt, but was eliminated in the third round of voting. The book was later turned into a film by Terence Young in 1969, with Bourvil in the main role.
His novel Une colère blanche (1969) is the story of a painter in all his creativity and suffering (winning the Prix des Quatre Jurys). The novelCendres sur la mer (1975) went against the grain of the times by presenting abortion as a tragedy.
He also published books on Jean Jaurès and Gilles de Rais.
He was the nephew of Georges Bataille.
