# Self Portrait with Nude

Self Portrait with Nude (sometimes known as Self Portrait or The Model) is an oil-on-canvas painting executed in 1913 by the English artist Laura Knight. A mature work, painted when Knight was 36 years old, it was controversial for its subject matter: a female artist painting a nude female life model. The painting was retained by Knight until her death in 1970, and bought by the National Portrait Gallery in 1971: the gallery has described it as "a bravura statement about the ability of women to paint hitherto taboo subjects on a scale and with an intensity, that heralds changes".
The painting shows a view of the artist in her studio, working on a painting of a nude female model, part of the painting, and the model herself posing for the painting. The artist is fully clothed, wearing a scarlet knitted cardigan and large hat, with her face viewed in profile, silhouetted by a light area of the painting depicted in the background. Behind her, to her left, is the painting she has been working on. Further back, to the right, is her life model, her friend and fellow artist Ella Naper, who is also facing away from the viewer, standing in a contrapposto stance on a raised platform with a striped carpet, her arms raised and bent to clasp behind her head. The model stands out against an orange backcloth and the wall of the studio.
The work measures 60 by 50.25 inches (152.4 cm × 127.6 cm). It was painted in Knight's studio in Lamorna and first exhibited at the Passmore Edwards Art Gallery in 1913, and then at the 1913 show of the International Society of Sculptors, Painters and Gravers at the Grosvenor Gallery in London, under the title The Model.
Reputedly, it was rejected for the 1913 Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. Critics objected to the impropriety of a female artist depicting herself alongside a female nude. At the time when Knight had attended art school, female students were not permitted to paint live models, being restricted to copying casts and drawings. Writing in The Telegraph, art critic Claude Phillips called the painting "harmless" and "dull", "obviously an exercise" which "might quite appropriately have stayed in the artist's studio", but also said that it was "vulgar" and "repels". An article in The Times in 1914 called it "extremely clever", but another in 1939 criticised its "mistaken attempts at solidity" and called it "regrettable".
Knight retained the work until her death in 1970, shortly before the opening of a major retrospective exhibition. It was sold at Sotheby's later that year for £700, the highest price achieved in the sales by her executors to clear her studio, and it was acquired by the National Portrait Gallery in 1971.
The Financial Times has compared it to the later works of Lucian Freud. In The Face of Britain (2015), the historian Simon Schama described it as a "incomparably, her greatest work, all at once conceptually complex, heroically independent, formally ingenious and lovingly sensual."
# Nakamura Incident

The Nakamura Incident (中村大尉事件, Nakamura taii jiken) refers to the extrajudicial killing of Imperial Japanese Army Captain Shintarō Nakamura and three others, on 27 June 1931 by Chinese soldiers in Manchuria.

## Background

Captain Nakamura, a regular Japanese Army officer, was on an official mission under orders of the Kwantung Army detachment in the South Manchurian Railway Zone. Early in June, Captain Nakamura obtained a huzhao (護照, passport) from the Chinese authorities in Mukden, which allowed him and his party rights of free passage through Manchuria, with the exception of the militarily-sensitive border area between Taonan and Solun (in the Xing'an Colonization Area). At Harbin, however, Nakamura obtained a second huzhao which, according to the Japanese Consul General, gave the desired permission to travel in the Taonan-Solun area.
Captain Nakamura was accompanied by Nobutarō Isugi, a retired Japanese army sergeant, a Mongolian and a Russian interpreter. Nakamura was travelling incognito, in civilian dress, and represented himself as an "agricultural expert". The party of four left Pokotu on the Chinese Eastern Railway about the middle of June, their immediate destination being Taonan. Nakamura made stops along the Chinese Eastern Railway, at Manzhouli, Qiqihar, Angangehi, and Hailar taking notes.
On 27 June 1931, the members of the party were arrested by Northeastern Army soldiers under the command of Kuan Yuheng outside Taonan, in a place called Suokungfu. According to the Chinese, Nakamura was armed and carried patent medicines, which included narcotic drugs for non-medical purposes. He and his assistants were taken to Solun, where they were summarily executed on July 1 and their bodies immediately cremated to conceal evidence of the deed. The execution may have been ordered because the Chinese had discovered that Nakamura's mission was one of espionage to find water sources and places for encampment for future Japanese military operations in northwest Manchuria.

## Consequences

Details of the incident became known to the Japanese public on 17 August 1931. With the news coming soon after the Wanpaoshan Incident, public opinion was further inflamed, increasing anti-Chinese sentiment in Japan. The Japanese military was quick to capitalize on this upsurge in public opinion to demand a stronger foreign policy against China. Some influential and outspoken officers, including Kanji Ishiwara, demanded that the incident be used as a casus belli to enable the Japanese Army to resolve Japan's position in Manchuria. Chinese authorities eventually agreed to investigate the case, and (per the Lytton Report) diplomatic progress appeared to be made until the Manchurian Incident later that year.
Nakamura was posthumously awarded the Order of the Golden Kite (4th class).
# Karachi, You're Killing Me!

Karachi, You're Killing Me! is a 2014 comedy crime-thriller novel by the Pakistani journalist-writer Saba Imtiaz. The author's debut novel was released in paperback by India's Random House on 1 February 2014. It is written about a 20-year-old reporter, Ayesha Khan, living in one of the world's most beautiful cities, Karachi, about her misadventures and finding a nice lover. The novel received mostly positive feedback from the reviewers. Imtiaz describes the novel as "Bridget Jones's Diary" meets "The Diary of a Social Butterfly." In 2015, the novel was optioned by producer Vikram Malhotra for a Bollywood film adaptation.

## Plot

Ayesha Khan, a journalist in her twenties living in one of the world's most lively cities, Karachi, whose work is to show up at bomb sites and picks her way through scattered body parts. Ayesha is hopeless in finding a nice guy like her old friend Saad, to share her personal thoughts with. Other than that, her most basic problem is how to straighten her hair.

## Critical reception

Karachi, You're Killing Me! has received critical acclaim. In a review for The Denver Post (AP), Rebecca Santana wrote that the novel successfully dismantles Pakistani stereotypes without moralizing. Santana praised the author's complex and tenacious depiction of the protagonist, unlike Bridget Jones and traditional portrayals of Pakistani women. Somak Ghoshal wrote for the Mint that "the satire is pitch perfect and may hit those of us who live in the subcontinent harder than the rest" and that the "refreshingly devoid of glosses and translations, Imtiaz's novel is unapologetically faithful to the cultural nuances from which it emerges." In the Hindustan Times review by Manjula Narayan was also positive, stating that "a comedy of manners, an incisive look at the journalistic life, an examination of a city with a dangerous edge, and an attempt to stand chicklit on its head, Karachi, You're Killing Me! is, quite simply, a very good read."
Ghausia Rashid Salam of The Missing Slate praised the author and novel and called it a "pretty fantastic" debut novel. Nudrat Kamal wrote for the Newsline and stated that the "humour is the greatest strength of the novel." The Friday Times Mohsin Sidiqui praised the author and the novel, and stated that "Ms. Imtiaz has managed to pull together a novel that you want to read and share with people, not because of a misplaced sense of "Oh crap, it's another Pakistani writer, I suppose I have to be mildly positive," but instead because it's actually laugh-out-loud funny, witty, and entertaining."

## Film adaptation

On 9 April 2014, India's Abundantia Entertainment acquired the Bollywood film adaptation rights to the novel. The film would be named Noor which would star Sonakshi Sinha as a female lead and Vikram Malhotra would produce. Author Saba Imtiaz would also be involved in developing the screenplay.
# Taft Hotel (New Haven)

The Taft Hotel was a hotel in New Haven, Connecticut. The building is still extant, primarily used for apartments. It is a contributing part of the Chapel Street Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The hotel building, completed in 1912, has twelve stories, and operated with 450 rooms. It sits on the corner of Chapel and College streets.
The building contains a bar, Bar Ordinary. The space is the oldest bar space in New Haven. The site hosted an ordinary or tavern as early as 1659, and hosted Benedict Arnold and George Washington. Abraham Lincoln and William Howard Taft may also have visited. In the 18th century it was called the Beers Tavern, then as the New Haven Hotel in the mid-19th century. In 1910, the Taft Hotel was built. By the 1980s, the hotel bar room became Richter's, owned by Yale graduate and crew instructor Richter Elser. The bar closed in 2011, replaced by Bar Ordinary in April 2013.
The Taft Hotel shutdown in 1973, in part due to competition from the modern Sheraton-Park Plaza (known as the Omni New Haven, as of 2022) that had opened a block away in 1970 as part of major urban renewal project in Downtown New Haven. The adjacent Adams Hotel, which had been built as an annex to the Taft, had closed some time earlier, although had been leased by the Culinary Institute of America for student housing until 1970. Zoning issues related to parking hampered early efforts to redevelop the Taft and Adams hotels into apartments. While the Taft was redeveloped, the Adams was acquired by the City of New Haven, and was demolished in 1980 to build a modern lobby addition to the historic Shubert New Haven theater building.
Taft Realty Associates began owning and managing the building in 1994, having purchased the building for $3.2 million. In 2022, the building was sold by Taft Realty Associates to an affiliate of Paredim Partners, an owner and manager of apartments, for $52.5 million.

# The Hedgehog and the Snake

The hedgehog and the snake, alternatively titled The snakes and the porcupine, was a fable originated by Laurentius Abstemius in 1490. From the following century it was accepted as one of Aesop's Fables in several European collections.

## The ungrateful guest

The Venetian librarian Laurentius Abstemius created a Latin fable concerning a hedgehog and a viper in his Hecatomythium of 1490. In this the hedgehog begs shelter for the winter in the snake's hole. When the host suffers from its guest's prickles and asks it to leave, the hedgehog refuses, suggesting that it is for the one who is discontented with the lodging to leave it.
In the following century variations of the fable appeared in several European collections and became sufficiently well known for Sir Philip Sydney to allude to it in his An Apology for Poetry. By the 17th century it was being used as an example of ingratitude in moralistic works such as Christoph Murer's emblem book XL Emblemata and the oil painting on copper by Jan van Kessel the Elder. Another of these was included in the water features in the labyrinth of Versailles, set up by Louis XIV for the instruction of his son. For this the king had been advised by the fabulist Charles Perrault, who records the fable in his work, but the statues were associated at Versaille with the quatrains composed for them by Isaac de Benserade, who refers to the villain of the piece as a porcupine:
       The snake, too polite, gave the porcupine
       Permission to enter,
       But when it repented,
       "Get out yourself," the ingrate replied.
In England the fable appeared in several influential collections of Aesop's fables. Samuel Croxall's version features a porcupine and snakes and is applied in his long reflection to the injudicious choice either of friend or marriage partner. Samuel Richardson's version is told of a snake and a hedgehog, with the advice that "It is not safe to join interest with strangers upon such terms as to lay ourselves at their mercy".

# Nangchen horse

The Nangchen horse is a small breed of horse native to the Kham region of northern Tibet, thought to have been bred pure since the 9th century. They became known to the western world in 1994 due to the exploration of French anthropologist Michel Peissel.
These animals are said to contain no ancestry from any of the common sources for most other Tibetan pony breeds, neither Mongolian horse, Arabian nor any type of Turkish blood. They are powerful and fast, said to have many of the characteristics of a modern racehorse. They have refined features, are pony-sized, but tall for ponies, swift and agile. Their unique characteristics include adaptations to the very high altitude of the region, including enlarged lungs.
In 1995, Peissel returned to Tibet in hopes of purchasing some individual animals to study in more detail, but they were unable to do so due to the high prices asked for the animals by local residents. On their way back, Peissel's expedition took an alternate route through a remote area and observed the Riwoche horse.

It has a local hall which was built in 1912. It has been in use since around the time of World War I. During the same era, Nangeenan was the site of a "state farm", a term used at the time for a research station of the WA Department of Agriculture.
# Nangibotide

Nangibotide is an inhibitor of TREM-1, a receptor found on certain white blood cells. Activation of TREM-1 stimulates inflammation. Nangibotide is therefore being investigated as a treatment for the overwhelming inflammation typically seen in severe sepsis.

## Chemistry

Nangibotide is a 12-amino-acid polypeptide derived from TLT-1.

## Mode of action

TREM-1 is a receptor found on neutrophils, macrophages and monocytes, key elements of the immune system. Activation of TREM-1 results in expression of NF-κB, which promotes systemic inflammation. Nangibotide inhibits TREM-1, thereby preventing the inflammatory activation. Absence of TREM-1 results in vastly reduced inflammation without impairing the ability to fight infection.

## Animal models

LR17, a mouse equivalent of nangibotide, improves survival in mouse models of severe sepsis. In a pig model of sepsis, LR12 - another animal equivalent of nangibotide - resulted in significantly improved haemodynamics and less organ failure. In monkeys, LR12 also reduced the inflammatory and hypotensive effects of sepsis.

## Human studies

Nangibotide has demonstrated safety in Phase 1 (healthy volunteers) and Phase 2 (sick patients with septic shock) studies. The ASTONISH trial will examine clinical efficacy in 450 patients with septic shock.

# Nanohyla petrigena

Nanohyla petrigena is a species of frog in the family Microhylidae. It is found in northern and central Borneo (Brunei, southeastern Sabah and central Sarawak, Malaysia, and central Kalimantan, Indonesia) and in the Sulu Archipelago of the Philippines. The common names pothole narrow-mouthed frog and Kapit rice frog have been coined for the species.

## Taxonomy

N. petrigena was formerly placed in the genus Microhyla, but a 2021 study using morphological and phylogenetic evidence moved nine species (including N. petrigena) to a new genus, Nanohyla.

## Description

Nanohyla petrigena is a small frog: adult males measure 14–16 mm (0.6–0.6 in) and adult females 15–18 mm (0.6–0.7 in) in snout–vent length. Its hands have only three fingers. The dorsum is colored in shades of brown. There are dark markings on the shoulder and a light band on the flank. The venter is dark with an irregular white blotch.
The male advertisement call is a single, pulsed note, emitted in series consisting of maximally 15 notes. Call repetition rate is about 0.7 per second, declining towards the end of the series.

## Habitat and conservation

Nanohyla petrigena occurs in lowland primary rainforests at elevations below 700 m (2,300 ft). It lives in leaf litter. Breeding takes place in small pot-holes on rocky banks of clear streams and rivers and appears to be restricted to certain nights. The egg masses float on the surface of these pools. The tadpoles feed in mid-water.
This species appears not to be able to adapt to modified habitats. It is threatened by habitat loss caused by logging and conversion in palm oil plantations; the type locality has already been destroyed and species has likely disappeared from there. However, the species occurs in several protected areas.
