# Maurice Block

Maurice Block (German: Moritz Block); 18 February 1816 – 9 January 1901) was a German-French statistician and economist.
Block was born in Berlin of Jewish parents. He studied at the University of Bonn and the University of Heidelberg and received his doctorate from the University of Tübingen. In the mid-1840s, he moved to Paris to become a statistician with the French ministry of agriculture. In 1853, he moved on to the General Statistic service.
Beginning in 1856, Block edited L'Annuaire de l'economie politique et de la statistique. He remained the editor until 1901. Block, along with many French economists of his time, believed that economics was too complex of a subject to be amenable to mathematical techniques.
He retired in 1862 and thenceforth wrote predominantly on the topics of agriculture, finance and public administration, turning to criticism of socialism in the 1890s. A prolific writer, he was published in a number of academic and professional magazines and journals of the time. He continued to devote himself to statistical studies as well.
He was elected a member of the Académie des Sciences Morales et Politiques in 1880. He died in Paris on 9 January 1901.
His principal works are:
* Dictionnaire de l'administration francaise (1856)
* Statistique de la France (1860)
* Dictionnaire general de la politique (1862)
* L'Europe politique et sociale (1869)
* Traité theorique et pratique de statistique (1878)
* Les Progres de l'economie politique depuis Adam Smith (1890)
* Die Bevolkerung des franzosischen Kaiserreichs (1861)
* Die Bevalkerung Spaniens and Portugals (1860)
* Die Machtstellung der europäischen Staaten (1862).
He wrote several books against socialism : Les théoriciens du socialisme en Allemagne (1872); Le socialisme moderne (1890). He is the author of the famous distinction between the three political lines : Orleanism, Legitimism and Bonapartism. As Adolphe Franck and Michel Breal, he is one of those Jewish Scholars who attempted to remain neutral during the Dreyfus affair.

# Homer College

Homer College, formerly Homer Seminary (active from 1880 to 1918), was a private Methodist school in Homer, Louisiana. In 1880 a school was opened under the name "Homer Seminary" as an African American elementary and high school founded by members of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church or CME (Christian Methodist Episcopal Church since 1954); by 1910 the school was renamed Homer College and became part of the CME, it served as an African American college-preparatory school for Texas College in Tyler, Texas. The school closed in 1918 after a conflict of leadership.

## History

During the annual Colored Methodist Episcopal Church conferences in 1878 and 1879, discussions were held by CME conference members about adding a training school in the state. The town of Homer was chosen by the conference members, and some 80 acres (32 ha) of land was purchased. There were disagreements over the location of the land and the CME church stepped away from the project. The leading CME minister for the conferences, Isaac Bullock, decided to work with local town members in Homer to open the Homer Seminary in 1880 specifically for Black students. Professor M.L. Coleman served as principal in 1880. On average, this school had 200 students annually, with the majority of the students traveling from a radius of a hundred miles.
In 1893, the CME general conference and Louisiana conference took over leadership of the school. In 1910, Monroe F. Jamison was elected to lead the CME conferences. Jamison advocated to transform Homer College into a college-preparatory school for specifically for Texas College. That same year 1910, the school was renamed Homer College in order to change the emphasis of the school (and distance itself from the elementary and secondary school level of education). These changes in Jamison's leadership at Homer College caused conflict and eventually the school closed in 1918.

## Legacy

Notable faculty at Homer College included J.R. Ramsey (who later taught math classes at Alcorn College); Thomas W. Sherard; Rev. A.M.D. Langrum, former president of Homer College; and A.L. Vaughn.
Other colleges and schools created by the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church included Texas College in Tyler, Texas; Paine College in Augusta, Georgia; Lane College in Jackson, Tennessee; Haygood Seminary in Washington, Arkansas; Miles Memorial College in Birmingham, Alabama; and the Mississippi Industrial College in Holly Springs, Mississippi.
# Greifswald Medical School

Greifswald Medical School (German: Medizinische Fakultät der Universität Greifswald) is a division of the University of Greifswald, Germany, consisting of the university's medical school and the adjacent Greifswald University Hospital. Its roots date back to the founding of the university in the year 1456, and it is therefore one of the oldest such institutions in Europe.

## Institution

The medical school has existed since the founding of the university in 1456, and is therewith one of the oldest medical schools in the world still in existence.

## Admission

The University of Greifswald's medical school is the second most requested, the most selective, and among the best-ranked in Germany. In 2007, Greifswald was ranked 2nd of 34 medical schools in Germany in terms of popularity with prospective students, out-ranking other popular universities such as the University of Heidelberg. Degrees are offered in medicine as well as dentistry. In Germany, places to study medicine and dentistry are usually allocated (by high school results) on a national level by a country-wide agency. However, a certain fraction of the places available may be administered by the universities if they wish so. In the year 2008, there were 2,100 applications for 95 places for medicine in Greifswald, which equals an admission rate of only 4.52 percent. In the same year, there were 400 applicants for 29 places in dentistry, which equals an admission rate of 7.25 percent.

## Programmes

* Medicine
* Dentistry
* Biomedical Science (B. Sc.)
* Clinical Nursing Science (B. Sc.)

## Greifswald University Hospital

The university hospital (German: Universitätsmedizin Greifswald), was completely reconstructed at the new science campus east of the city centre up to the year 2011. It is therefore one of the best equipped and most up-to-date full service hospital in Germany. The university hospital recently purchased a nearby communal hospital in the city of Wolgast to increase the number of beds and treated patients. This was the first time in Germany, that a (public) university hospital bought another public hospital. The merger was first prohibited because German antitrust authorities were worried about a dominating position of the Universitätsklinikum Greifswald in the region. However, the decision was later revoked by a direct veto of the federal government of Germany, which is a very rare procedure.

# Nexchip

Nexchip (Chinese: 晶合集成; pinyin: Jīnghé Jíchéng) is a partially state-owned publicly listed Chinese pure-play semiconductor foundry company based in Hefei, Anhui.
In terms of revenue, it is currently mainland China's third largest semiconductor foundry behind SMIC and Hua Hong Semiconductor. It is also one of the largest semiconductor foundries in the world based on the same metric.

## Background

In May 2015, Nexchip was originally established as a joint venture between Taiwanese company Powerchip and the Hefei City Construction and Investment Holding Group, a state-owned enterprise. Its founder, Michael Tsai had previously served as President of Powerchip and had also held senior position at other Taiwanese technology companies. According to Tsai, Nexchip was founded on the advantages of the local industrial supply chain, driven by BOE Technology to become the world's leading Display Driver ICs (DDI) chip foundry.
In response to the United States New Export Controls on Advanced Computing and Semiconductors to China, anonymous sources have reported that Nexchip was purchasing everything it could including second-hand tools to keep its fabs running.
On 5 May 2023, Nexchip held its initial public offering becoming a listed company on the Shanghai Stock Exchange STAR Market. The offering was 1,160x oversubscribed due to popular demand and raised 9.96 billion yuan making it one of the largest IPOs in 2023.
In October 2023, Nexchips opened a new fab in Hefei that specialized in manufacturing car chips. As China's leading DDI foundry, it wanted to expand into the automotive power chip market. According to Nexchip, overconcentration on the DDI sector was a potential risk due to order fluctuation and bargaining power. Therefore, it wanted to diversify into other areas. Its five largest customers accounted for 66.47% of sales. In the same month, Nexchip and Himax signed a memorandum of understanding to supply integrated circuits for the automotive display industry.
As of 2023, Nexchip has achieved mass production for 12-inch wafer foundry platforms of the 90nm to 150 nm process nodes. It is now in the risk-taking phase of mass production of 55 nm nodes Apart from the DDI sector, Nexchip is also involved in microcontrollers, CMOS Image sensors and Power Management ICs. Nexchip's 2023 half-year report showed DDI accounted for 87.84% of sales and its process nodes with the most sales were the 90 nm platform followed by the 110 nm platform.

# Chris Hani District Municipality

The Chris Hani District Municipality (Xhosa: uMasipala weSithili sase Chris Hani) is a landlocked district municipality situated in the centre of the Eastern Cape province of South Africa and is made up of eight local municipalities. Most of the communities are in rural areas. The landscape ranges from moist uplands and grassland hills to the arid Karoo scrubland.
In 2016, the region reported a population of 840 000 people, accounting for 1.5% of South Africa's total population and 12% of the Eastern Cape's total population. Most of the district municipality's employment is based on unskilled labour.

## Local Municipalities

In the east are Emalahleni, Dr AB Xuma (previously Engcobo), Intsika Yethu, Sakhisizwe Local Municipality and a section of Enoch Mgijima Local Municipality. These local municipalities were originally part of the Transkei or Ciskei, which were former homelands during Apartheid, designed to separate different ethnic groups. This area is still characterised by its rural settlements and typical subsistence agriculture activities.
Inxuba Yethemba Local Municipality and Enoch Mgijima Local Municipality are lying in the west. These areas were originally part of the Republic of South Africa during Apartheid.
The district’s agricultural industry is identified as dualism since it is divided into the first economy of commercial agriculture and the second economy of subsistence farming. In spite of its significant agricultural outputs, the municipalities are importers of processed food.

## Service Delivery

The provision of basic services is particularly limited in the eastern municipalities which are largely rural. Backlogs include the delivery of tap water and adequate sanitation, school infrastructure and tarred roads.

### Main Roads

The district is situated on the intersections of the N6 from East London to Aliwal North via Komani, the R61 from Komani to Mthatha through Cofimvaba via Ngcobo and the N10 from Middelburg to Aliwal North via Cradock. Evidence of tarred roads in the rest of the district municipality is below the Eastern Cape’s provincial average – resulting in limited public transportation and access to health care facilities in bigger towns.

### Water

The district municipality is situated on the watershed of four river systems. These are namely the Orange River, Great Fish River, Mbashe River and Great Kei River. Surface water sources supply water for most of the towns in the area while only a few rely on groundwater supplies.
In rural areas, communities use water from unprotected springs, streams and boreholes. For the commercial farms in the west, the water supply is usually groundwater from boreholes.
