# HTK (software)

HTK (Hidden Markov Model Toolkit) is a proprietary software toolkit for handling HMMs. It is mainly intended for speech recognition, but has been used in many other pattern recognition applications that employ HMMs, including speech synthesis, character recognition and DNA sequencing.
Originally developed at the Machine Intelligence Laboratory (formerly known as the Speech Vision and Robotics Group) of the Cambridge University Engineering Department (CUED), HTK is now being widely used among researchers who are working on HMMs.
# Joseph Frederick Green

Joseph Frederick Green (5 July 1855 – 1 May 1932) was a British politician. He sat in the House of Commons from 1918 to 1922 as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Leicester West.
Green worked as a curate in his youth, but later left the church. He became involved in politics through the Liberal Party, serving as secretary of the St George's Hanover Square Liberal Association, and on the committee of the National Liberal Club. In the 1890s, he instead joined the Independent Labour Party and the Fabian Society, serving on its executive in 1899/1900. Around this time, he also served as secretary of the International Arbitration Association, and of the Friends of Russian Freedom.
In the 1900s, Green joined the Social Democratic Federation (SDF), serving as its treasurer for a time. He resigned in 1911 in protest at H. M. Hyndman's calls for the Royal Navy to be enlarged. However, his views changed dramatically with the outbreak of World War I, and he joined the Socialist National Defence Committee, a pro-war split from the SDF's successor, the British Socialist Party. A supporter of Victor Fisher, he followed him into the British Workers League, before joining the National Democratic and Labour Party (NDP).
Standing as a candidate of the NDP, with support of the Liberal-led and Conservative-dominated coalition government, Green contested the newly created Leicester West constituency at the 1918 general election. His only opponent was the Labour Party candidate Ramsay MacDonald, a sitting MP for the two-seat Leicester constituency until it was divided for this election.
With coalition support, Green won 76% of the votes, defeating MacDonald. However, at the 1922 general election, without coalition support, Green stood as a National Liberal Party candidate. He won only 28.4% of the votes, and lost his seat to the Labour Party candidate Alfred Hill. Green did not stand again. Instead, he joined the Conservative Party, and found work at its headquarters.
# Wampo

A documented case exist where wampo was used as burial object.
# UGT2B4

UDP glucuronosyltransferase 2 family, polypeptide B4, also known as UGT2B4, is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the UGT2B4 gene.

## Function

UGT2B4 is mainly involved in the glucuronidation of hyodeoxycholic acid, a bile acid, and catechol-estrogens, such as 17-epiestriol and 4-hydroxy-estrone.
The expression of the UGT2B4 enzyme is upregulated by the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a nuclear receptor which is activated by bile acids. These same bile acids are substrates for the UGT2B4 enzyme. Hence upregulation of UGT2B4 by activated FXR provides a mechanism for the detection, conjugation and subsequent elimination of toxic bile acids.

# Marketplace (Canadian TV program)

CBC Marketplace is a Canadian investigative consumer program which has been broadcast on CBC Television since 1972. The program investigates consumer reports on issues such as product testing, health and safety, fraudulent business practices, and also tests government and industry promises.

## History

The program was influential in the banning of urea formaldehyde foam insulation and lawn darts in Canada, the legislation of warnings on exploding pop bottles, successful prosecution of retailers for false advertising, new standards for bottled water and drinking fountains, new regulations to make children's sleepwear less flammable, and the implementation of safer designs for children's cribs.
In recent years, the program's reporting has exposed the illegal dumping and burning of Canadian plastic recycling in Malaysia, the sale of fake university degrees to Canadian professors and social workers, and its hidden camera investigations documented hygiene issues in hospitals, misleading sales practices, and violence and neglect in long-term care homes.
Investigations have led to corporate and government changes: Google Maps launched a review of the country's locksmith listings after the identification of dozens of fake listings and reviews. Ontario's real estate board launched an investigation and review of its agents after the program documented agents breaking rules around “double-ending”.
When the program's original lab testing found dangerous levels of cadmium in jewelry sold by Ardene and Aldo, journalists travelled to China to expose how these chemicals end up on Canadian store shelves. The episode prompted an investigation by Health Canada and changes in the companies’ suppliers.
One of its most popular programs involved an international investigation tracking the people behind those annoying fake Canada Revenue scams and tech support scams. The reporting triggered “Project Octavia”, a criminal investigation by the country's top police force (RCMP). In February 2020, journalists were granted exclusive access to document the arrest of Canadian “super money mules” alleged to have been working with criminals in India to defraud Canadian victims.
Marketplace was originally hosted by Joan Watson and George Finstad. Joan Watson eventually married one of the first producers of the show, Murray Creed. Other hosts have included Bill Paul, Harry Brown, Norma Kent, Jacquie Perrin, Christine Johnson, Erica Johnson, Jim Nunn, Tom Harrington and Wendy Mesley. The program's current hosts are David Common, Charlsie Agro and Asha Tomlinson.
Early seasons of the program had a theme song, "The Consumer", which was written and performed by Stompin' Tom Connors. For several years, every episode would begin with Connors singing the song, which became a hit.
Every Thursday, The National airs a weekly segment that is based on the week's episode with Adrienne Arsenault introducing the segment.
In 2023, an audio podcast version of the show was produced and with the episodes scheduled for release on July 4, 2023. In addition, the podcast was broadcast as a summer replacement series on CBC Radio One.
# Tănase v. Moldova

Tănase v. Moldova was a 2010 European Court of Human Rights case which determined that the provisions of the European Convention on Human Rights prohibited Moldova from making dual cititzenship holders ineligible to sit in the national parliament.

## Background

In May 2008, Moldovan electoral law was amended to forbid persons with multiple citizenship from sitting in the parliament. The change did not forbid those with multiple citizenship from running for election, but if successful, they could only take their seat if they renounced their other citizenships. According to Radio Free Europe, 10 percent of candidates in the 2009 Moldovan parliamentary election held dual nationality.
One of those affected Alexandru Tănase, from the Liberal Democratic Party of Moldova. Having been elected in 2009, he was forced to renounce his Romanian citizenship if he wished to take his seat.
He launched a complaint before the Court. Romania was admitted as a third party.

## Judgments

In 2008, a Chamber of the Court decided that the provisions of Moldovan law violated Article 3 of Protocol No. 1 of the European Convention on Human Rights. The judgment was appealed by Moldova.
In 2010, the Grand Chamber unanimously found the ineligibility of persons with dual citizenship to violate Article 3 of Protocol No. 1. It was unanswered whether forbidding those with multiple nationalities from taking seats in Parliament pursued a legitimate aim.
It found the law to be disproportionate and in violation of Article 3 of Protocol No. 1.

# Bill Spokes

William Ambrose Spokes (13 November 1912 – 31 October 1985) was an Australian rules footballer who played with Fitzroy in the Victorian Football League (VFL), and with Preston, Brunswick, and Williamstown in the Victorian Football Association (VFA).

## Family

The son of Alfred George Parsonage (1885-1919), and Edith Carol Parsonage (1889–1968), née Arrowsmith, William Ambrose Parsonage was born at Essendon, Victoria on 13 November 1912. From the time of his (widowed) mother's marriage to William Frederick Spokes (1893-1966) in 1920 he assumed the family name of Spokes.
He married Dorothy Jean Warren (1914-1974) in 1935. They had two children.

## Football

His somewhat complex career as an Australian rules footballer lasted, at least, for 16 seasons (1930 to 1945).
He was playing for North Fitzroy in the Sub-District League in 1930 and 1931. He played in one game for Collingwood Seconds in 1932, and then returned to North Fitzroy. He was cleared from "Collingwood" to Preston, by the VFL Second Eighteens, on 23 May 1933; and from "North Fitzroy" to Preston, by the VFL Permit Committee, on 24 May 1933.
He played in 9 games for Preston in 1933 and 1934; and, on 5 June 1934, he was cleared from Preston to Brunswick. He played in 22 games for Brunswick in 1934 and 1935.
In 1936 and 1937 he was captain-coach of Fitzroy Districts. On 13 April 1938 he was cleared from Fitzroy District (which had disbanded) to Preston. He played 10 games for Preston in 1938; and, then, on 19 April 1939, was cleared from Preston to "Richmond Amateurs", only to be cleared from Preston to Williamstown on 15 June 1939. He played 29 games (15 goals) for Williamstown in 1939 and 1940, including the winning 1939 Grand Final team and the losing 1940 Preliminary Final.
In April 1941, he was cleared from Williamstown to Geelong; and, then in May 1941, from Williamstown to Preston. He played in three matches for Preston in 1941.
Due the various pressures of World War II, there was no VFA competition in 1942, 1943, or 1944. On 14 April 1945, in the first round of the 1945 VFA season, he played for Preston, against Northcote, at the Preston City Oval. Four days later, the VFL granted him a clearance to Fitzroy from Preston, and Fitzroy listed him as an "old player" in its final training list for 1945. He played in the Fitzroy Seconds for the entire 1945 VFL season, including Fitzroy's 9.3 (57) to 9.16 (70) Grand Final loss to Footscray.

## Boxing

He was also a middleweight/Light heavyweight boxer of some note. Including bouts while he was serving with the RAAF, Spokes fought in 19 professional bouts between 1933 and 1944, with 9 wins (3 by OK), 6 losses (2 by KO), and 4 draws.

## Military service

He served in the RAAF from January 1944 to July 1946; and, while doing so, he also continued to play football, as well as competing as a boxer.

## Death

He died at Northcote, Victoria on 31 October 1985.

# Takeshi Sasaki (political scientist)

Takeshi Sasaki (佐々木毅) is a Japanese political scientist who served as the 27th president of the University of Tokyo. He has served as the chairman of the Japan Academy since 2022.

## Overview

Sasaki was born in a village called Senya (now Misato) in the northeastern prefecture of Akita in 1942, during the Second World War. His father, Chohachi, served as the mayor of the village. After graduating from Akita High School in 1961, he went on to study political science at the Faculty of Law, University of Tokyo (UTokyo), where he was supervised by Kanichi Fukuda (福田歓一). He earned his PhD from the same university in 1973, with a thesis entitled 'Sovereignty, Resistance, and Tolerance: Jean Bodin's Philosophy of State' (主権・抵抗権・寛容――ジャン・ボダンの国家哲学).
In the 1980s, he broadened his analysis to contemporary American political thought, and at the same time, he became active in the debate on contemporary Japanese politics, focusing especially on the keyword 'lateral input (横からの入力)' (American pressure).
During his four-year presidency at the university from 2001, the university gained more independence but started receiving less support from the government.
   During the tenure of President Hasumi, Japanese society was beset by a financial and economic debacle of profound severity, a period marked not by the smooth and continuous march of history but by abrupt and profound disjunctions. The complacency wrought from three or four decades of economic prosperity has dulled our collective sensibility to such rudimentary truths, a malaise of the spirit that obscures even the most basic of understandings.
He placed this turiningpoint in the university's governance in the wider context of the country's first long-term economic and political stagnation since the Second World War and the widespread pessimism that became widespread in the country.
   Striving for excellence involves a commitment to being first-rate in both intellectual and practical endeavours. This quest is intrinsically linked to the continual self-improvement and potential expansion in all life's facets. Essentially, it is a profound dedication to self-cultivation beyond comparison. It embodies a mentality of self-care, whereas neglect in self-cultivation can lead to a loss of self-identity, resulting in a tendency to merely follow others without a clear sense of personal direction.
Analogous to this mentality he wished for first-year students, he advocated that the university itself should not be satisfied with merely being the premier academic and educational authority in the world's second-largest economy as it had been. Instead, it should stand on its own feet and commit to self-improvement, especially in the forthcoming era of the country's gradual decline.
# Ca Rater Mallorquí

The Ca Rater Mallorquí or Spanish: Ratonero mallorquín is a Spanish breed of dog of ratter type, found on the island of Mallorca in the Balearic Islands.

## History

The origins of the breed are unclear, with no documentary evidence before the late nineteenth century. In the early twentieth century, Valencians migrated to Mallorca; they may have brought some ratters with them. It is widely believed that the Ca Rater Mallorquí is related to the Gos Rater Valencià; it is also possible that there was some infusion of English terrier blood in the history of the breed.
A breed society, the Club Espanyol del Ca Rater Mallorquí, was established in 1990, and registrations were begun. The breed was recognised by the autonomous community of the Balearic Islands with the publication of the breed standard in the Butlletí Oficial de les Illes Balears in 2002, and in 2004 it received national recognition when the standard was published in the Boletín Oficial del Estado, the official journal of the government of Spain.

## Use

The Ca Rater Mallorquí is used on the island of Mallorca to hunt rats and rabbits. It is a good watchdog, and a good companion animal.
