## Critical response

Lorna Bradbury, Deputy Literary Editor for The Daily Telegraph, listed the collection as one of "25 Classic Novels for Teenagers." Zoe Chace of NPR told interviewer Cara Philbin her reactions during reading the collection as a child: "Kiss Kiss is for grown-ups...It was actually the marriages that I remember feeling the worst about...Reading Kiss Kiss is one of the first times I can remember a real-life truth staring back at me from a book. I hadn't yet thought about the nasty tricks adults play on each other just to hurt each other. Particularly, married adults who aren't in love and who might know the other's weakness best. My imagination matured."
# Henning Podebusk

Henning Podebusk or Putbus (before 1350 – c. 1388) was a German-Slavic statesman, the last drost of Denmark. He served under King Valdemar IV, King Oluf II, and Queen Margaret I, and he was the de facto ruler of Denmark from 1368 to 1370. Podebusk, whose personal character is unknown, is now considered one of the most important Danish statesmen of the Middle Ages. His political views seem to have been just as cynical and power-centred as that of his royal masters, but perhaps he was an even better diplomat. By his death the office of drost was abolished, probably because he had shown how powerful it might be.

## Biography

Podebusk belonged to a German-Slavic family of magnates related to the princes of Rügen. The family was based in Putbus, which had been Danish before 1325. Nothing is known of his youth. He first appeared in Danish history in 1350, as he met Valdemar IV in Northern Germany and was taken into Danish service. During the next 15 years he became one of the king's most important and loyal officials in both foreign and domestic relations.
In 1365, he was appointed drost (prime minister) of Denmark, and he showed his diplomatic ability during the war 1367-1370 against the powerful Hanseatic League and its allied Confederation of Cologne. When Valdemar was pressed to leave Denmark in 1368, Podebusk was appointed the de facto ruler, and set about ending the war with the League. He cut his losses in the war, and split the enemy alliance by agreeing an unfavourable separate peace with the Hansa in the Treaty of Stralsund. After the war he took part in the king's legal settlement with the magnate rebellionists in Denmark and during the next years he managed to sabotage much of the Hansa's economic advantages from the peace.
After the death of Valdemar in 1375, Podebusk played an important role as the protector of Danish royal interests, as he helped Valdemar's five-year-old grandson Oluf II ascend the throne in favour of candidates from the House of Mecklenburg. He damped the magnates' opposition by temporary concessions and repudiated foreign demands on the throne. Podebusk served as a councillor for Oluf's mother Margaret Valdemarsdaughter, and helped her ascend the throne as Queen Margaret I when Oluf died in 1387. No exact date of death is known, but his wife Gisela Podebusk was described as a widow in October 1388.
He married his distant relative Gisela Podebusk, from Denmark, whose mother Eufemia was the daughter of the last Danish count of Halland, according to medieval tales. His descendants played a modest role in Danish politics until 1660, then as magnates in Sweden, hereditary lord marshals of Pomerania, and elevated Princes of Putbus, ultimately in the kingdom of Prussia.
# Farley Chavez Augustine

Farley Chavez Augustine (born 1985) is a Tobagonian politician and educator serving as the current Chief Secretary of Tobago, the island's head of government. He holds the additional executive role of secretary for finance, trade and the economy.

## Early life

Augustine was raised in Speyside. He attended the University of the West Indies before returning to Tobago to become a high school teacher.

## Political career

In the December 2021 Tobago House of Assembly election, the Progressive Democratic Patriots (PDP) party, which had declared Augustine to be its candidate for Chief Secretary, won a majority in the Tobago House of Assembly (THA). Augustine was thus named the Chief Secretary in 2021. In 2023, after a conflict with the PDP's leader, he formed his own party, the Tobago People's Party, to which most members of the THA defected.
In 2024, the opposition Tobago Council of the People's National Movement accused Augustine of accepting bribes. Augustine denied these charges.

# Hino da Póvoa

Hino da Póvoa (Póvoa Hymn) or Hino da Póvoa de Varzim is an anthem written by Povoan composer Josué Trocado for the city of Póvoa de Varzim in Portugal.

## History

The lyrics were written by Josué Trocado (1882–1962) in 1916. In the first half of the 20th century, it was played by Orfeão Poveiro. Local historian Viriato Barbosa, in the Cultural Bulletin in 1971, stated that "Those who would live and those who guessed, dying like a swan singing, would not accomplish their mission proclaiming high and with good sound their faith, their love to the arts, and in good spirit and with singing excitement to the land were they flourished." and in the "yearly festival recitation in the night of September 9, 1916, and while the Garrett cloth was lifted, the volume of the sound of the voices of that dark assemblage of men, all known faces, all dressed in black, with white shirt fronts, resounded pathetically by the opening of the show with the hymn."
Cities and municipalities cannot have anthems in Portugal. And only, in 2004, the choral group "Ensaio" sang Hino da Póvoa during the International Music Festival of Póvoa de Varzim. In 2009, Maria do Mar (Mary of the Sea), pseudonym of Conceição da Silva Pinto, author of Marés (Tides, 2004), asked in a chronic in Comércio da Póvoa de Varzim, a local newspaper, for the anthem to be regularly used. Only the Póvoa de Varzim civil parish answered the plea, and decided to restore the anthem, playing it in the beginning of every civil parish assembly.

## Lyrics

Hino da Póvoa :
| Salvé! Póvoa, terra ilustre | Hail! Póvoa, illustrious land |
| nossa pátria, nosso lar | our fatherland, our home |
| tu és nosso santo orgulho | you are our holly pride |
| quer aquém, quer além-mar | at home, and overseas |
| Salvé! Póvoa, terra linda! | Hail! Póvoa, beautiful land! |
| tu és nossa, és imortal! | you are ours, you are immortal! |
| teu amor revive em nós, | your love lives once again in us, |
| num afecto perenal! | in an everlasting affection! |
| Soe um alto brado, quente | May one cry out loud, warmly |
| de beleza astral sem fim: | With endless stellar beauty |
| -Viva a nossa linda terra! | -Long live our beautiful land! |
| -Viva a Póvoa de Varzim! | Long live Póvoa de Varzim! |
| (bis) | (bis) |
| -Viva a nossa linda terra! | -Long live our beautiful land! |
| -Viva a Póvoa de Varzim! | Long live Póvoa de Varzim! |
# Coocumbac Island Nature Reserve

The Coocumbac Island Nature Reserve (Birrpayi: Gukangbang or Gukangbak) is a protected nature reserve located in the mid–north coast region of New South Wales, Australia. The 6-hectare (15-acre) reserve, situated on the Manning River near Taree, is a rare example of a subtropical lowland rainforest.
Much of Australia's lowland sub tropical rainforest was cleared for housing and agriculture, leaving only small patches remaining, such as at Coocumbac Island. The soils are derived from the Manning River. These alluvial soils are enriched from basaltic deposits upstream at Barrington Tops and the Comboyne and Bulga plateaux. The average annual rainfall in nearby Taree is 1,176 millimetres (46.3 in).

## Features
### Fauna

The most obvious mammal species on the island is the grey-headed flying fox, whose numbers may reach 5,000 at certain times of the year. Noteworthy birds occurring here include the osprey and wompoo fruit-dove.

### Flora

The ecological community on the island is known as the large fig - giant stinger tree association. The genus ficus is well represented, with several strangler fig species present. Particularly prominent are the large Moreton Bay figs. Other figs are deciduous fig, small leaf fig and watery fig. The town of Taree, takes its name from another of the local figs, the sandpaper fig.
Other tree species include stinging tree and the native olive. The native elm grows on the island, here at its southernmost point of natural distribution. A large native hackberry occurs on the island, 30 metres (98 ft) tall and with a trunk diameter of 1.2 metres (3 ft 11 in). Less common trees include white walnut and the Australian rose mahogany.
Rainforest regeneration programs have been put in place to encourage local rainforest species and suppress the problem of invasive weeds.

#### Mangroves

Surrounding the island is an impressive community of two species of mangroves; grey mangrove and river mangrove.

## Etymology

Coocumbac means "meeting place" in the local indigenous Biripi language. Australian indigenous people regularly visited the rainforest for the collection of food, medicinal purposes, the collection of fibres for making bags and nets and social gatherings. The rainforest has spiritual significance to the traditional indigenous custodians.

# Polymerase chain reaction inhibitors

PCR inhibitors are any factor which prevent the amplification of nucleic acids through the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). PCR inhibition is the most common cause of amplification failure when sufficient copies of DNA are present. PCR inhibitors usually affect PCR through interaction with DNA or interference with the DNA polymerase. Inhibitors can escape removal during the DNA purification procedure by binding directly to single or double-stranded DNA. Alternatively, by reducing the availability of cofactors (such as Mg$^{2+}$) or otherwise interfering with their interaction with the DNA polymerase, PCR is inhibited.
In a multiplex PCR reaction, it is possible for the different sequences to suffer from different inhibition effects to different extents, leading to disparity in their relative amplifications.

## Types of inhibitors

Inhibitors may be present in the original sample, such as blood, fabrics, tissues and soil but may also be added as a result of the sample processing and DNA extraction techniques used. Excess salts including KCl and NaCl, ionic detergents such as sodium deocycholate, sarkosyl and SDS, ethanol, isopropanol and phenol among others, all contribute via various inhibitory mechanisms, to the reduction of PCR efficiency.

## Quantifying extent of inhibition

In order to try to assess the extent of inhibition that occurs in a reaction, a control can be performed by adding a known amount of a template to the investigated reaction mixture (based on the sample under analysis). By comparing the amplification of this template in the mixture to the amplification observed in a separate experiment in which the same template is used in the absence of inhibitors, the extent of inhibition in the investigated reaction mixture can be inferred. Of course, if any part of the inhibition occurring in the sample-derived reaction mixture is sequence-specific, then this method will yield an underestimate of the inhibition as it applies to the investigate sequence(s).

## Preventing PCR inhibition
### Sample collection

The method of sample acquisition can be refined to avoid unnecessary collection of inhibitors. For example, in forensics, swab-transfer of blood on fabric or saliva on food, may prevent or reduce contamination with inhibitors present in the fabric or food.

### DNA purification

Techniques exist and kits are commercially available to enable extraction of DNA to the exclusion of some inhibitors.

### PCR reaction components

As well as methods for the removal of inhibitors from samples before PCR, some DNA polymerases offer varying resistance to different inhibitors and increasing the concentration of the chosen DNA polymerase also confers some resistance to polymerase-targeted inhibitors.
For PCR based on blood samples, the addition of bovine serum albumin reduces the effect of some inhibitors on PCR.
