# Plassa

Plassa (also known as Scarlattino) is a red Italian wine grape variety that is grown in the Piedmont wine region of northwest Italy where it was once historically used as a table grape but now is almost always used for winemaking. Here the grape is most often used as a minor blending component adding tannins to wines made from Barbera, Neretta Cuneese, Grisa nera and Chatus.

## History

The name Plassa is derived from the word pellaccia which in the local Piedmontese dialect means "hard skin" and is a reference to the very thick grape skins of Plassa berries. Ampelographers believe that the grape is native to Piedmont region where it has been historically associated with the communes of Bibiana, Bricherasio, Campiglione-Fenile, Pinerolo and San Secondo di Pinerolo in the province of Turin.
The thick skins of Plassa allowed the grape to stay fresh after harvest, making it prized as a table grape, but over time it use as a table grape wine and now it is used solely for wine production.

## Viticulture

Plassa is a mid to late ripening variety that can be very vigorous producing large foliage which may require canopy management to keep in check. The variety gets its name, Scarlattino, from the bright red color that the plant stems develop during the growing season. While Plassa has good resistance to most fungal diseases, such as downy and powdery mildew, due to its very thick skins it is susceptible to the viticultural hazard of millerandage and to infection from European grapevine moths.

## Wine regions

In 2000 there were 44 hectares (110 acres) of Plassa in Italy, almost exclusively found in the province of Turin in the Piedmont wine region where its grown along the Susa Valley and around the communes of Bibiana, Bricherassio, Campiglione-Fenile, Cumiana, Frossasco and Pinerolo. Here the grape is primarily used as a blending component, adding tannins to wines made from Barbera, Neretta Cuneese, Grisa nera and Chatus.

## Synonyms

Over the years Plassa has been known under a variety of synonyms including: Cheur dur, Cuor Duro, Palessa, Pelasina, Pelassa, Pellaccia, Pellacia, Scarlattin, Scarlattino and Scarlattino Plassa.

# Daħlet Qorrot

Daħlet Qorrot Bay is a small bay found in the north of Gozo, Malta between Qala and Nadur. The beach is rocky in summer but in winter it is always covered with algae. In this bay, you can find several boathouses which had been dug in the soft limestone. The rock is filled with fossils and this makes Daħlet Qorrot a geological hot spot.
It derives its name from the ship "Qorrot" that entered the bay to take shelter from the storm, back in the 19th century. The word 'daħlet' in Maltese comes from the verb 'daħal' meaning to enter. 36°03′01″N 14°19′01″E﻿ / ﻿36.05028°N 14.31694°E﻿ / 36.05028; 14.31694

# Neoboletus venenatus

Neoboletus venenatus, known until 2015 as Boletus venenatus, is a species of bolete fungus in the family Boletaceae native to Japan and China. It was transferred to the new genus Neoboletus by Chinese mycologists Gang Wu and Zhu L. Yang in 2015.

## Taxonomy

Japanese mycologist Eiji Nagasawa described this species as Boletus venenatus in 1995. It is known in Japan as dokuyamadori or tahei-iguchi.

## Description

The cap is dome-shaped initially, then convex to cushion-shaped, before flattening out in maturity, attaining diameters of 7–26 cm (2.8–10.2 in), and can be various shades of yellow-grey, olvie-brown or yellow-brown. The surface is dry and slightly furry when young, and the cap margin curved inwards. The pale yellow flesh is 2–3 cm (0.79–1.18 in) thick under the cap and slowly turns pale blue on bruising. The pores are yellow to yellow-brown and stain dark blue quickly upon bruising. Covered in fine scales, the stipe is yellow-brown fading to pale yellow at the top, measuring 10–15 cm (3.9–5.9 in) tall by 2–4.5 cm (0.79–1.77 in) wide. It also stains pale blue on bruising. The mycelium is pale yellow.

## Distribution and habitat

Neoboletus venenatus has been found in southwestern China, specifically Laojun Mountain in Yulong County in Yunnan province and Kangding County in Sichuan province, and Japan, specifically Hokkaido and central Honshu. It grows in subalpine regions. associated with conifers such as Abies, Picea and Tsuga.

# RSS Resolution (208)

Resolution (208) is the second ship of the Endurance-class landing platform dock of the Republic of Singapore Navy.

## Development

The navy's intention to purchase the Endurance-class was revealed by former Defence Minister Dr. Tony Tan during his visit to Tuas Naval Base on 3 August 1996. These ships were to replace the five ex-United States Navy (USN) County-class LSTs, which were acquired by Singapore from the United States in the 1970s. ST Marine was awarded the government contract to design and build the four ships – a significant milestone for the local defence and shipbuilding industries given the scale and extensiveness of the programme.

## Construction and career

She was laid down on 27 March 1997 and launched on 1 August 1998. She was commissioned on 18 March 2000 with the hull number 208.
RSS Resolution successfully fired a Mistral surface-to-air missile during Exercise Cooperation Afloat Readiness and Training in 2000, an annual joint naval exercise between the USN and RSN.
Resolution was sent to the Persian Gulf in November 2004 to take over RSS Endurance for peacekeeping efforts.
In 2007, RSS Resolution taking on the expanded role of taking charge of coalition and Iraqi Navy ships to defend Iraq's oil platforms. She was subsequently tasked for RSN's fifth deployment to the Gulf on 30 August 2008.

# DbExpress

dbExpress is Embarcadero's data driver architecture that replaced the older Borland Database Engine. First released with Borland Delphi 6 and C++Builder 6, it has gone through several iterations itself, the latest being shipped with Embarcadero Delphi and C++ Builder RX 10 Seattle. It provides unidirectional database access, that means you can traverse data obtained from a database table only in the forward direction. You cannot go back, unless you add other layers. This makes dbExpress a very fast access technology, compared to many others. Updates has to be done with other in the IDE integrated components as the "DatasetProvider", which assembles automatically appropriate Update-Statements ( in SQL ).
Embarcadero supplies drivers for many databases, including Oracle, Firebird, InterBase, IBM Db2, Informix, SQL Server, MySQL and ODBC. Additional drivers are available from third parties. Starting with Delphi 2007 (dbExpress 4 generation) a tracing driver is included as well which allows for logging all statements sent to the database.
Prior to version 4 of dbExpress the drivers used the Microsoft COM technology and most drivers were not unicode enabled. Nowadays the drivers are written in Delphi itself and source code for most parts is available. Most drivers today are unicode enabled since Delphi itself switched to unicode with version 2009.
# Lungi Bridge

The Lungi Bridge Project is a proposed major infrastructure project in the West African country of Sierra Leone. The 7km long bridge will link the Lungi area to Freetown, passing over the estuary of the Sierra Leone River.
Freetown International Airport is located at Lungi. Transit between Freetown and the airport currently requires a boat journey or a road trip that can take 3 hours.
The project was announced by President Julius Maada Bio. Its projected cost was initially $2bn, making it the country's largest infrastructure project. In a state of the nation address in May 2021 the budget was reduced to $1.2bn with a claim that construction would start later in the year. In December 2023 it was reported that the Government of Sierra Leone had signed a contract worth $1.5bn with the China Road and Bridge Corporation with construction expected to commence by the end of 2024. The construction is expected to take 3 years to completion.

## History

Lungi International Airport was originally constructed as a base for the British Royal Air Force and was subsequently converted for civilian use. Lungi Airport is the country's only international airport. The difficulty with travelling between the airport and Freetown had always been a problem with various boats from canoes, government ferry and fast boats used to cross the estuary. In the past, helicopters, a hovercraft and light aircraft (to Hastings airfield) were used to pass over the Sierra Leone River estuary.
The previous government of Ernest Bai Koroma had proposed the new Mamamah International Airport, located near Songo Village, Koya Chiefdom in Port Loko District. The project was subsequently cancelled by President Julius Maada Bios government.
# Clepsydrops

Clepsydrops is an extinct genus of primitive synapsids from the early Late Carboniferous that was related to Archaeothyris. The name means 'hour-glass appearance' (Greek klepsydra = "hourglass" + Greek ops = "eye, face, appearance").
Synapsida is the group (or clade) that includes mammals, but the term is mainly used to refer to its earliest members. Like many other early terrestrial amniotes, it probably had the diet of insects and smaller animals. It probably laid eggs on land rather than in the water, as most amniote tetrapods did.
A paleobiological inference model for the femur suggests a terrestrial lifestyle for Clepsydrops, as for its more recent relative Ophiacodon. This is consistent with its rather thin, compact cortex. Its jaws were slightly more advanced than those of other early amniote tetrapods like Paleothyris and Hylonomus.
# Boridae

The Boridae are a small family of tenebrionoid beetles with no vernacular common name, though recent authors have coined the name conifer bark beetles. The family contains three genera. Boros is native to North America and northern Eurasia, Lecontia is endemic to North America, while Synercticus is found in Australia and New Guinea. The larvae of Boros are found under bark and are especially associated with standing dead trees (snags), typically pines, found in old-growth forests. Lecontia larvae are found inhabiting damp parts of the root system of dead standing trees. Little is known of the life habits of Synercticus.

## Taxonomy

* Genus Boros Herbst, 1797
** Boros schneideri (Panzer, 1795)
** Boros unicolor Say, 1827
* Genus Lecontia Champion, 1889
** Lecontia discicollis LeConte, 1850
