# Kiuic

Kiuic is a Maya archaeological site in the Puuc region of Yucatán, Mexico.

## History

Kiuic (/kjuˈiːk/ kyoo-EEK) was a Maya city of the Late and Terminal Maya Classic Periods, with evidence of earlier occupation. It was abandoned by the Maya around 880 CE. The site is well-preserved, and in that regard compared by archaeologists to Pompeii.

## Archaeology

First documented in print by John Lloyd Stephens and Frederick Catherwood in 1843. The site was visited by later Mayanists including Teoberto Maler.
The site has been undergoing archaeological exploration since 2000, in part by Millsaps College archaeologists. Kiuic was extensively discussed in a PBS Nova and National Geographic special.

# Therese Ridge

Therese Ridge (born 1 March 1941) is an Irish former politician from Clondalkin, County Dublin. Formerly a member of Fine Gael, she was an Independent member of South Dublin County Council from 2012 to 2014.

## Early life

Born in Dublin, Ridge was educated at Goldenbridge College, Dublin and at St Patrick's College, Maynooth, where she graduated with an MA. She worked as a Montessori teacher and then as an external tutor at Maynooth Adult Education Department and at Stewarts Hospital in Palmerstown.

## Political career

She was an elected member of South Dublin County Council from the county's establishment in 1994 to 2014, and was chair of the council from 1996 to 1997. She previously represented the same Clondalkin area on the former Dublin County Council, to which she was elected in 1985 and which she chaired from 1992 to 1993.
Ridge stood three times as a Fine Gael candidate for Dáil Éireann, but was unsuccessful on each occasion: in Dublin South-West at the 1987 general election, in Dublin West at the 1992 general election and in Dublin Mid-West at the 2002 general election.
She stood unsuccessfully at the 1989 and 1993 elections to Seanad Éireann by the Labour Panel, but won a seat at the 1997 election to the 21st Seanad. She was defeated at the 2002 Seanad elections.

## Mahon Tribunal

Lobbyist Frank Dunlop, whose allegations of corruption in the rezoning of land in County Dublin were based on his own involvement in much of the alleged wrongdoing, claimed in 2000 that he had paid 16 councillors involved in rezoning decisions, including that on the Quarryvale site in west Dublin. Fine Gael's then leader John Bruton established an internal inquiry into the allegations, which reported in May 2000 that while Ridge had received donations from developers (including two payments of £500 each from Dunlop), it was "satisfied that Ms. Ridge did not allow the payments which she received to influence her decision to vote on any of these three motions".
In November 2007, Dunlop told the tribunal had persuaded councillors to arrange the seating at a county council meeting to ensure that Fine Gael councillor Peter Brady could be prompted by Ridge to vote in favour of a motion on Quarryvale. Dunlop told the tribunal that he was in the public gallery at the time of the vote and heard Ridge say to her colleague "for, Peter, for" when the time came for him to cast his vote.
On 10 May 2012, Ridge lost the Fine Gael party whip as a result of the complete findings of the Mahon Tribunal which found that she acted "entirely improperly" by accepting a donation of £1,000 cash from Frank Dunlop during the 1992 general election. On 6 July 2012, she resigned from the Fine Gael party. She said that she was not appealing against the ruling of the party disciplinary committee, and was leaving because she could not get fair procedures.

## Karađorđev well

In the hamlet of Beljevac there is a well, which is believed to have been dug by Karađorđe. The inhabitants of the hamlet came from the vicinity of Sjenica during the First Serbian Uprising. They are the descendants of the people of Šumadin who, after the death of the despot Stefan Lazarevic, found refuge on Durmitor, and from there they went towards Sjenica due to the revenge of the Poturics, who had Turkified several villages. During the battle for Sjenica in the First Serbian Uprising, they helped Karađorđe, and then, after several hundred years, he brought them back to Šumadija.

## Memorial in Churches

# Holothuria nobilis

Holothuria (Microthele) nobilis, the black teatfish, is a species of sea cucumber in the genus Holothuria. The sea cucumber is found in the tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific ocean. It was first described by Emil Selenka in 1867.

## Description

The cucumber inhabits shallow waters near islands and reefs. Members of the species are blackish-brown and grey in colour, and mature adults can weight between 1.7 and 4 kilograms.

## Use as food

Like the related white teatfish, the black teatfish is part of a commercial fishery across its range and the cucumber is regularly consumed as a food. The species can be collected off the seafloor using diving suits or while skindiving, making the species very vulnerable to overfishing. The species is considered endangered in the Indian Ocean.
# Theryaxia

Theryaxia is a monotypic genus of beetles in the family Buprestidae, the jewel beetles. The single species is Theryaxia suttoni. It is endemic to Australia, where it occurs in New South Wales and Queensland.
The larvae of this species are found on white cypress-pine (Callitris columellaris syn. Callitris glaucophylla).
# Perillyl alcohol

Perillyl alcohol and its precursor limonene are naturally occurring monocyclic terpenes derived from the mevalonate pathway in plants. Perillyl alcohol can be found in the essential oils of various plants, such as lavender, lemongrass, sage, and peppermint. It has a number of manufacturing, household, and medical applications. For example, perillyl alcohol may be used as an ingredient in cleaning products and cosmetics.
Perillyl alcohol has shown some antitumor activity in laboratory and animal studies. Perillyl Alcohol decrease production of proangiogenic growth factors VEGF and interleukin-8 (IL-8) in vitro.
Mammals possess enzymes (P450, liver) to convert limonene to Perillyl alcohol. Limonene is formed from geranyl pyrophosphate in the mevalonate pathway. Conversion of limonene to perillyl alcohol is done via hydroxylation by enzymes that belong to the superfamily of cytochrome P450 proteins. Perillyl alcohol can be further converted to perillaldehyde (perillyl aldehyde) and perillic acid.
The name comes from the herb perilla.

The Wayside Rest displays the granite ruins of Joseph R. Brown's home from 1862. Brown, his multiracial wife and twelve children lived in this home, which was a center of hospitality along the Minnesota River Valley. The three-story home was then considered a mansion compared to typical pioneer homes. It was destroyed during the Dakota War of 1862 on August 19, 1862. His family was spared because of his wife's Dakota heritage.
Brown was a politician, inventor, publisher, and Indian Agent.
# Metastrongylosis

Metastrongylosis is a parasitic disease that affects wild boars and pigs which live outdoors. It is caused by various species of roundworms of the genus Metastrongylus. A handful of cases of metastrongylosis have been reported in humans.
Metastrongylus species have a life cycle which involves earthworms as an intermediate host. Pigs root for earthworms in soil, and ingest the Metastrongylus larvae which are infesting the earthworms. The larvae migrate to the lungs, and cause the pig to cough and have difficulty breathing.
# Schmidt (lunar crater)

Schmidt is a small lunar impact crater that is located near the southwest edge of Mare Tranquillitatis, to the southwest of the Ritter–Sabine crater pair. It was named after German astronomer Johann Friedrich Julius Schmidt, German optician Bernhard Schmidt and Soviet astronomer Otto Schmidt. This formation is circular and bowl-shaped, with little appearance of wear due to subsequent impacts. The interior has a higher albedo than the surrounding terrain, giving it a light appearance. The exterior consists of hummocky terrain with many boulders, ranging up to 100 m or more in diameter.

# Stroud (Midland) railway station

vteStonehouse & Nailsworth Railway :
Legend :
Stroud railway station (unofficially known as Stroud Wallbridge) served the town of Stroud, in Gloucestershire, England. The station was on a short 1.25 mi-long branch from Dudbridge on the Stonehouse and Nailsworth Railway, part of the Midland Railway. It was not connected to the earlier and still used Stroud railway station on the Great Western Railway.
Dudbridge had opened as "Dudbridge for Stroud" with the Stonehouse and Nailsworth Railway in 1867. The railway was quickly taken over by the Midland, whose main line between Bristol and Gloucester it joined at Stonehouse. In 1885, the Midland Railway built a short branch line from Dudbridge to a new station at Stroud. The new line opened for goods traffic in 1885 and for passengers on 1 July 1886.
The station at Stroud was perched on a high embankment above the Thames and Severn Canal. The building was wooden and was described at the opening to passenger traffic as "temporary", though it lasted throughout the station's life and beyond. Goods traffic was always more important than passenger traffic at the station, and there was a large goods yard to the east of the passenger platforms.
The station was always officially known simply as "Stroud", but to distinguish it from the nearby GWR station, various publications referred to it as either "Stroud Wallbridge" or "Stroud Cheapside"; the latter name is used in the April 1910 edition of Bradshaw's Railway Guide. That 1910 timetable shows the journey between Dudbridge and Stroud taking an average of five minutes, with fewer than 10 trains a day, a few of them directly running to or from Stonehouse. The station closed temporarily on 1 January 1917, reopening four weeks later on 29 January.
The Stonehouse and Nailsworth Railway, along with the rest of the Midland Railway, became part of the London Midland and Scottish Railway at the 1923 Grouping. Passenger services were suspended on the line as an economy measure to save fuel in June 1947, and were officially withdrawn from 8 June 1949. The station remained open for goods traffic until 1966, though much of the freight had transferred to the former Great Western station. The station buildings have now been demolished and are covered by the town's ring road.

# Perilous Dreams

Perilous Dreams is a collection of science fantasy short stories by American writer Andre Norton. It was first published in paperback by DAW Books in June 1976, with a cover and frontispiece by George Barr; it was reprinted in September 1978, July 1982 and September 1987. Barr's art was replaced with new art by Kevin Eugene Johnson and then Ken W. Kelly on the covers of the reprints, though the original frontispiece was retained. The book has also been translated into Italian. It was later gathered together with the author's novel Knave of Dreams into the omnibus collection Deadly Dreams (Baen Books, June 2011).
The book collects four novelettes and novellas by Norton, one originally published in If, the other three apparently original to the collection.

## Contents

# Joseph Connolly (architect)

Joseph Connolly (1840–1904) was an Irish Canadian architect, born in Limerick, Ireland. He trained as an architect under James Joseph McCarthy in his native Ireland before coming to North America. Connolly specialized in Gothic Revival architecture. He is known for the churches he designed throughout Ontario, mainly for the Irish Roman Catholic community, though he also produced some industrial and residential buildings.

## Biography

After completing training with James Joseph McCarthy, the 'Irish Pugin', Joseph Connolly advanced to become McCarthy's chief assistant in the 1860s and subsequently went on a study tour through Europe. He started a practice in Dublin in 1871, but moved shortly after to Toronto where he partnered with surveyor Darrin Martin, an association that lasted until 1877. From the 1880s, he worked with Arthur W. Holmes. Joseph Connolly died of bronchial asthma in 1904.

## Style

Though he also designed secular buildings, Connolly is known for his Gothic Revival churches. He emulated J.J. McCarthy and George Ashlin, the most successful Roman Catholic church architects in Ireland during Connolly's formative years. His work bears some similarities to his contemporaries in Ireland such as William Hague.

# Methylthioadenosine nucleosidase

In enzymology, a methylthioadenosine nucleosidase (EC 3.2.2.16) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
    S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine + H$_2$O $\rightleftharpoons$ S-methyl-5-thio-D-ribose + adenine
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine and H$_2$O, whereas its two products are S-methyl-5-thio-D-ribose and adenine.
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those glycosylases that hydrolyse N-glycosyl compounds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine adeninehyrolase. Other names in common use include 5'-methylthioadenosine nucleosidase, MTA nucleosidase, MeSAdo nucleosidase, and methylthioadenosine methylthioribohydrolase. This enzyme participates in urea cycle and metabolism of amino groups and methionine metabolism.

## Structural studies

As of late 2007, 6 structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1NC1, 1NC3, 1Y6Q, 1Y6R, 1ZOS, and 2H8G.
