# Elaine Grand

Elaine Grand (née Hill; 8 June 1926 – 30 April 2001) was a Canadian broadcaster.
Elaine Hill was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Her father, George Hill, had been born in England but had migrated to Canada and served in the Canadian Army, where he was in the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry Band which toured America and Europe in the interwar years. Her mother was an art and music teacher. Hill attended Kelvin High School, graduating in 1942. She later married Solomon Grand, who died in 1953. She trained as a fashion illustrator before moving to television; she was the interviewer for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's Tabloid from 1953 to 1956 and was, according to The Guardian, "the most famous woman in Canada" at that time.
In 1956, she moved to England and joined ITV, though she continued to work in Canadian television for a while, presenting Chrysler Festival (1957). In 1960 she married the playwright Reuben Ship. She produced documentaries including Unmarried Mothers (1963) and in the 1970s and 1980s became one of the interviewers for Thames Television's Afternoon Plus (alongside Mavis Nicholson, Judith Chalmers and Mary Parkinson), a talk show which attracted a wide range of interviewees. Broadcast during the daytime, it was initially targeted towards housewives, but, with unemployment growing, its editor Catherine Freeman turned it into a serious interview format. As The Guardian commented, Grand "brought the art of intelligent interviewing to a wide and growing audience ... [she] was one of a handful of broadcasters who changed the face of daytime television in Britain" through her interviews of politicians, thinkers, writers and other notable figures. She died on 30 April 2001.
# Benzion Halper

Benzion Halper (April 15, 1884 – March 21, 1924) was a Lithuanian-born Jewish-American Hebraist and Arabist.

## Life

Halper was born on April 15, 1884, in Žasliai, the Vilna Governorate, Russia, the son of Abel Solomon Halper and Miriam Rosenbloom.
Halper received a Heder and Yeshiva education, and he began working when he was sixteen. He immigrated to Frankfurt, Germany, to continue his studies in 1901. He left for England shortly afterwards, where he worked as a carpenter, a commercial traveller and in a Manchester factory. In 1904, he matriculated at the University of London and supported himself by teaching privately and writing for the Hebrew weekly Hayehudi. He received an A.B. degree from there in 1904 (with first class honors in Semitics) and an M.A. in 1909 (with mark of distinction). In 1910, he was elected the first Gilchrist Scholar in Arabic and spent the next year studying in Egypt under the auspices of the university. He also studied in Jews' College.
Halper immigrated to America in 1911, at which point Solomon Schechter had him classify and copy the Cairo Geniza fragments in the Jewish Theological Seminary Library. He became a Fellow of Dropsie College in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in the fall of 1912. There, Cyrus Adler had him examine a collection of Geniza fragments. Two months later, he revealed a previously overlooked lost work: three quarters of Sefer Ha-Mitzvot (Book of Precepts) by Hefes ben Yasliah in Arabic, which he then translated into Hebrew in June 1913. He received a Doctor of Philosophy degree from Dropsie in 1914, at which point he became an Instructor and then an Associate Professor as well as Custodian of Manuscripts. His two-volume Post-Biblical Hebrew Literature was published in 1921. He also wrote Descriptive Catalogue of Genizah Fragments in Philadelphia, which represented nearly twelve years of research of every Geniza fragment he could find in Philadelphia and was rushed to the press when he fell ill so it would be published before he died. He also published an Autograph Responsum of Maimonides, wrote reviews of Arabic literature, Hebraica, and Judaica in the Jewish Quarterly Review, and issued an essay on the Scansion of Medieval Hebrew Poetry. He was working on an edition of Arabic Responsa of Maimonides based on a manuscript David Simonsen sent him before he died, as well as an edition and Hebrew translation of Moses Ibn Ezra's Arabic poetica and an article in Hebrew on Judeo-Arabic literature. He was also an editor of the Jewish Publication Society of America from 1916 until his death.
Halper died at home from pneumonia on March 21, 1924. Rabbi Leon H. Elmaleh of Congregation Mikveh Israel officiated his funeral service at Dropsie College. He was buried in the Federal Street Burial Ground.

# Margaret Ashmore Sudduth

Margaret Ashmore Sudduth (June 29, 1859 – September 21, 1957) was an American educator, editor, and temperance advocate. She was the senior editor upon the staff of the Woman's Temperance Publishing Association, overseeing The Union Signal.
Sudduth was called in July 1887 to a position as editor of Oak and Ivy Leaf, organ of the Young Woman's Christian Temperance Union (Y. W. C. T. U.), and soon became associate editor of The Union Signal also. In 1892, on her appointment as managing editor of The Union Signal, she resigned her connection with the young woman's paper.

## Early life and education

Margaret Ashmore Sudduth was born on a farm in Mason County, Illinois, June 29, 1959. Her parents were Dr. James McCreary Sudduth (1827–1895) and Amanda Elizabeth Sudduth (1828–1898). She had two siblings, a brother, Dr. William Xavier Sudduth, and a sister, Alice Sudduth Byerly. Her father had built up an extensive practice in Central Illinois before giving up the practice of medicine to become a banker and stock raiser.
Sudduth received a B.S. degree in 1880 from Illinois Wesleyan University.

## Career

During the year 1880, she was assistant principal of the high school at Dwight, Illinois, and in the fall of 1881, she entered Wellesley College for a teacher's special course of literature and history, where she remained but a few months, being compelled to give up study on account of failing eyesight. Having traveled extensively with members of her family in the South and West, she went abroad in May, 1886, and spent fourteen months in Europe, traveling through England, Germany, Austria, Italy, and Switzerland, making special study of the German language.
Interested since before her graduation in the temperance movement, she spent considerable time while abroad in investigating the cause of drunkenness in the countries visited, and as a special correspondent to Bloomington, Illinois papers and the Union Signal, she displayed literary ability. In 1887, upon her return to the United States, she accepted the editorship of the Oak and Ivy Leaf, a publication projected by Mary Allen West.
In 1890, her name first appeared as an editor of the Union Signal, to which her services had been rendered from the time of her arrival in Chicago, and in January, 1892, she assumed the managing editorship, where her journalistic ability and cultured mental and literary qualifications were called into requisition.

## Death

Margaret Ashmore Sudduth died in Los Angeles County, California, September 21, 1957, and was buried at Olivewood Memorial Park, Riverside, California.
# March Forward, Dear Mother Ethiopia

"March Forward, Dear Mother Ethiopia" (Amharic: ወደፊት ገስግሺ ውድ እናት ኢትዮጵያ, romanized: Wedefīt Gesigishī Wid Inat ītiyop’iya), also known by its incipit as "Honour of Citizenship" (Amharic: የዜግነት ክብር, romanized: Yezēginet Kibir), is the national anthem of Ethiopia.

## History

The lyrics were written by Dereje Melaku Mengesha, and the music was composed by Solomon Lulu Mitiku. The song was adopted in 1992, as part of reforms that followed the collapse of the People's Democratic Republic of Ethiopia.

## Biography

Kosta Miličević was born to a clerical family, with a history of service in the priesthood. As a young man, he went to Belgrade, where he studied with Kiril Kutlik who operated a famous painting school. He continued his training, under difficult financial conditions, in Prague, Vienna, where he worked with the portrait painter, Heinrich Streblow (1862-1925) and Munich. Until 1910, he was an informal student at the arts and crafts school of Rista and Beta Vukanović. That same year, he became a member of Lada [sr], an art association.
In his early period, he painted in the Academic style, as taught in Germany, then was attracted to Art Nouveau. After becoming acquainted with the works of Nadežda Petrović and Milan Milovanović, he sought to create a more personal style. He finally settled on a free, Impressionistic approach, brought to fruition during a stay at an artists' colony in Savinac (now part of Belgrade). His first success came at the Fourth Yugoslav Art Exhibition of 1912.
He was inducted into the army during World War I, briefly served as a soldier, then became an official War Painter for the Supreme Command in Corfu. Only five paintings are known to have survived from this period.
After the war, he taught evening classes at the Vukanovic's arts and crafts school. His early death was probably due to tuberculosis.

# Isohydric principle

The isohydric principle is the phenomenon whereby multiple acid/base pairs in solution will be in equilibrium with one another, tied together by their common reagent: the hydrogen ion and hence, the pH of solution. That is, when several buffers are present together in the same solution, they are all exposed to the same hydrogen ion activity. Hence, the pK of each buffer will dictate the ratio of the concentrations of its base and weak acid forms at the given pH, in accordance with the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation.
Any condition that changes the balance of one of the buffer systems, also changes the balance of all the others because the buffer systems actually buffer one another by shifting hydrogen ions back and forth from one to the other.
The isohydric principle has special relevance to in vivo biochemistry where multiple acid/ base pairs are in solution. The simplifying isohydric principle gives two important concepts. First, all of the buffers in a multiple-buffered system contribute to pH of the system. Secondly, the pH (at equilibrium) can be calculated from an individual buffer system regardless of other buffers present. That is, in vivo, knowing the concentration of pCO$_2$ (weak acid) and bicarbonate (conjugate base) and the pKa of that buffer system, the pH can be calculated regardless of the presence of other contributing buffers. The clinical relevance is that arterial blood gas often directly measures the CO$_2$ levels and the pH, but the bicarbonate levels are then calculated from that information—without regard to other buffers present
# Rafael Dones

Rafael "Rafy" Dones Arroyo (1944-1984) was a Puerto Rican alleged drug dealer and independence advocate. Rafy Dones was known for allegedly being one of the first "bichotes"- or drug lords-in Puerto Rico. Dones was friends with Filiberto Ojeda Rios, and he was alleged to have had connections to Los Macheteros, a clandestine militant and insurgent organization that advocates for Puerto Rico's independence from the United States.

## Accusations

Dones was accused of drug dealing in 1974. Pablo Padilla, who was to be a witness in Dones' trial, was murdered on December 14 of that year, three days before he was to take the stand in the trial against Dones.
In 1977, Dones was accused of being the intellectual author of Padilla's murder. The Padilla murder case received substantial attention on Puerto Rican press, to the point that Dones' lawyers asked for a mistrial based on their belief that the case's jurors were allowed to read articles about it on newspapers such as El Vocero. Their motion was denied.

## Death

Dones was gunned down in 1984 as he was leaving a hospital, where he had gone to a rehab center to treat an addiction to methadone that he had developed.
