# Ross Island (Oregon)

Ross Island is the main island of a four-island cluster in the Willamette River in Portland, Oregon, in the United States. The islands, covering a total of about 400 acres (160 ha), are owned mainly by Ross Island Sand and Gravel (RISG), which mined them extensively between 1926 and 2001. The other three islands are Hardtack, East, and Toe. Ross Island was named for Oregon pioneer Sherry Ross.
The islands split the Willamette River into Holgate Slough on the east. They are about 1 mile (1.6 km) south of downtown Portland at river mile 15, the islands are slightly upriver (south) of the Ross Island Bridge between the Springwater Corridor Trail on the eastern shore and the South Waterfront on the western shore and slightly downriver from the Oaks Bottom Wildlife Refuge on the eastern shore and Willamette Park on the western shore. Ross is the longest of the islands, the closest to the western shore, and the closest to the Ross Island Bridge. Hardtack is to its east. East Island lies southeast of Hardtack, and Toe Island lies southwest of Ross. No bridge reaches the islands, which are approached only by boat.
Ross Island is connected to Hardtack Island by an artificial levee built in 1926 by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in order to form a lagoon between the two islands. The lagoon made dredging easier for RISG and diverted water west of the islands, where it deepened a shipping channel.
In 2007, the owner of RISG, Robert B. Pamplin, Jr., donated 45 acres (18 ha) of the island to the city of Portland, which plans to manage the property as a natural area. The islands, which retain remnants of forested riparian zones, are used by at least 50 species of birds including ospreys, eagles, and herons. The gift was accepted long after transfer negotiations stalled in 2002 over questions of liability for the islands' restoration and cleanup. Because it contains toxic fill dirt, the Ross-Hardtack lagoon is listed for cleanup by the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality. City staff and outside experts who inspected the 45 acres (18 ha) in 2007 approved of their condition. The Port of Portland donated the land it owned on the northern tip of the island to the city in 2015.

# Scott Thompson (basketball player)

Scott Thompson is an American former basketball player. He is one of the best players in University of San Diego history and was named the conference player of the year of the West Coast Athletic Conference (WCAC) in 1987.

## College career

Thompson, a 7-foot (2.1 m) center from Mesa Verde High School in Citrus Heights, California, played basketball for coach Hank Egan at San Diego, where he was friends and teammates with future NBA coach Eric Musselman. Thompson was an immediate impact player for the Toreros, helping the team to the first NCAA tournament berth in program history in 1984. He was also named WCAC freshman of the year.
For the next three seasons, Thompson was named first-team WCAC All-Conference, becoming the first player in school history to be so honored. As a senior in 1986–87, Thompson led USD to a 24–6 record, its best in program history. The team drew more interest than their crosstown counterparts at San Diego State, and they managed to sell out home games while students were off during Christmas break. The Toreros lost a heart-breaking first-round game in the 1987 NCAA tournament to Auburn, 62–61. Thompson had a big individual year, averaging 15.9 points, 7.4 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game and becoming the first player in school history to be named WCAC player of the year. Still, the Toreros played together as a team and were not solely dependent on Thompson.
Thompson finished his career with 1,379 points (12.1 per game) and graduated as the school's leading Division I career scoring leader. He also left as the school's all time Division I rebounding leader with 740 (6.5 per game). Both marks have since been surpassed. Thompson was named to the USD athletic hall of fame in 2000.

## Professional career

After graduating from USD, Thompson was drafted by the Washington Bullets in the fourth round (81st pick) of the 1987 NBA draft, however he never played in the league. Thompson played one season in the Continental Basketball Association for the Mississippi Jets.
# Capitol Theater (Manila)

The Capitol Theater was an Art deco theater in Manila, Philippines. It was built during the 1930s along Escolta Street, part of the city's primary commercial district, together with the Lyric Theater. It was designed with a double-balcony by National Artist Juan Nakpil and that was considered a rare feat during that era.

## Architecture

A decorative located over the main building entrance, was intentionally designed to be different from the rest of the building. The tower façade is symmetrically composed with lines offsetting each other to emphasize the strong and rigid geometric forms; this is most especially shown at the top, with recessed tiers resembling a ziggurat and the geometric details at the top corners. At the center of this is an art deco grille-work that is made up of squares and circles surrounded by two pilasters on both sides. Both of the vertical surfaces have low-relief figures depicting two Filipina muses which are portrayed wearing native dress or 'traje de mestizas' and local fauna which include carabao head. This was done by Francesco Riccardo Monti, also known for his works in some of the famous buildings in Metro Manila. Strong lines and soft curves outline the pleats of the gowns worn by the muses. To represent its use as a theater, both muses each hold a mask and a lyre, associated with theater arts and music, respectively.
The external elements found in the building relate to the function of the structure as a cinema and the Art Deco style with its strong geometric forms. Crowning the top of the central tower is the world "Capitol," the name of the structure in concrete. Due to natural and human-caused damage, only the I and T remain.
The national flower, sampaguita was the underlying motif of the interior spaces shown in wrought-iron grills on the stairs, the lobby, the foyer and the proscenium arch. Also found in its lobby is a mural entitled "Rising Philippines" done by Victorio C. Edades, Carlos V. Francisco and Galo B. Ocampo. The theme also is evident in the proscenium arch, featuring sampaguita flowers in bloom finished in white seashell. Four concentric circles of short bamboo nodes and internodes radiate from the sampaguita flowers.
The theater accommodates 1,100 seats in its air-conditioned double-balcony interior.

## Damage and decay

The theater closed because of the declining theater business in Manila. The beginning of the Light Rail Transit (LRT) construction caused the theater-goers to choose cinema theaters inside the newly opened air-conditioned malls.

## Demolition

The theater was demolished in June 2020 to make way for a new high-rise building.

# Philip Lee Tau Sang

Philip Lee Tau Sang (Chinese: 李道生) (d. 1959) was a politician of Hakka Chinese descent in North Borneo (now the east Malaysian state of Sabah). At various different times, he was a member of the first Advisory Council of North Borneo after the war(1947–1950), the first Legislative Council of North Borneo (1950–1958) and the Executive Council of North Borneo (1950–1953, 1956–1957), and had represented the Colony with distinction at numerous overseas conferences.
Lee represented the Chinese community during the formation of the Crown Colony of North Borneo in 1946.
He was highly respected by the Chinese community in North Borneo and well-liked by the British colonialists. The latter touted him as a future Prime Minister of North Borneo after its independence from the United Kingdom. However, four years before North Borneo joined the federation of Malaysia, Lee suddenly died of a heart attack in the United States.
Lee Tau Sang Road (Malay: Jalan Lee Tau Sang) is named in Lee's honour. It is located in Tanjung Aru, a southern suburb of Kota Kinabalu, the state capital of Sabah.
# Coffee furanone

Coffee furanone (2-methyltetrahydrofuran-3-one) is a pleasant smelling liquid furan derivative which is a volatile constituent of the aroma complex of roasted coffee. Coffee furanone is less odorous than furfuryl mercaptan, which with an odor threshold of 0.005 ppb was the first high impact aroma chemical, but has a very pleasant sweet caramel character, with some nuttiness.

## Synthesis

Coffee furanone was synthesized in 1963 by Wynberg via acid-catalyzed ring closure of β-alkoxy diazoketones. Coffee furanone has also been prepared via the condensation of ethyl lactate and methyl acrylate in DMSO solution and (under phase transfer conditions) in ionic liquids. A related lactic acid synthesis was described as having the advantages of a simple process, high conversion rate, low pollution, and low cost. This compound has also been prepared in acceptable yield via oxidative hydroxylation of the 2-acetylbutyrolactone. Further approaches to the synthesis of coffee furanone involved the hydrolysis of the corresponding dithioketals and the oxidation of 2-methyltetrahydrofuran employing lithium hypochlorite in the presence of ruthenium catalysts.

## Applications

The synthetic version of this natural flavorant and odorant is used in a variety of food and beverage applications, including coffee, nuts, cocoa, brandy, meat sauces and as a general food flavorant at a typical dosage (about 5-20 ppm), similar to the natural concentration (30 ppm) of coffee furanone in roasted coffee.

## Architecture

The market is characterized by its Neo-Mauresque architectural style. Among its most prominent features is its large gateway, imitating styles of gates in Morocco's imperial cities: Marrakesh, Fes, Rabat, and Meknes.
Another feature of the market is the octagonal center cupola, under which different kinds of fresh seafood are sold, such as Atlantic Ocean fish, shark meat, oysters, etc. The daily catch is displayed around a circular walkway and on a central island where oysters from Dakhla are shucked on the spot for one-by-one consumption.
Flowers are also sold in decorated bouquets and handicrafts such as woven reed baskets. Fossils and antiques, such as old black-and-white photographs and posters, are also available.
Produce, herbs, spices, and meat from butcher shops are also sold.
The market also houses some restaurants and is considered one of the most important lunch destinations for tourists and Casawis alike.

# Taipei Exchanges

Taipei Exchanges (Chinese: 第36個故事; pinyin: Di 36 ge gu shi) is a 2010 Taiwanese comedy film directed by Hsiao Ya-chuan and starring Gwei Lun-mei and Zaizai Lin.

## Plot

Doris always wanted to have her own coffee-house. With the help of her sister, Joise, she opened "Doris's Cafe". After the first day of business, however, there are few customers for the coffee house and the coffee house becomes cluttered with many useless gifts brought by friends and former colleges. Later, when customers start to ask about purchasing some of the items, Joise suggested a bartering system for the store.
Business goes up as people linger to decide what to exchange. Later, customers began to share their personal stories with Doris in the coffee house as well.

## Cast

* Gwei Lun-mei as Doris, the owner of the newly opened cafe.
* Zaizai Lin as Joise, sister of Doris who works in the cafe.
* Chang Han as Chun-Ching, a soap collector who has collected 35 bars of soap. Each bar of soap has a story behind it.
* Kousuke Atari as a Japanese Singer

## Production

The film was invested in part by Taipei tourism bureau.
Director Hsiao Ya-chuan said that he got inspiration for Doris's character when he visited a coffee shop in Shanghai, where he witnessed a French girl with short hair devoting "her full attention to making desserts at the counter". Hsiao also said that he wanted to deliver the idea of "making exchanges without using money" because he felt that "if we value an item with only one fixed standard [ie: money], the item will lose its appeal very soon.".
Doris’ Coffee Shop, the coffee shop featured in the film, was built completely from scratch in an old apartment on Fujin Street in Taipei. It later became a real coffee shop after the shooting of the film.

## Reception

The Taipei Times described the film as a "surprisingly sweet, romantic portrait of a Taipei where capitalism is superseded by a barter economy". The reviewer praised the art, saying that the "fairy-tale feel [of the film] is charmingly enhanced by artist Wu Meng-yun’s child-like illustrated art, and the "warm, comforting [music] score". However, it added that towards "80%" of the film, "Hsiao stretches his already thin material a bit too much and loses the momentum he would have needed to make a serious statement." It also criticized the characters of the film, saying that they "seem to live exclusively in delightful vignettes that are inspired by the real world but not truly rooted in it.".
Film Business Asia said that "Hsiao's second feature is technically smooth and never boring to watch. But it's as wispy as the froth from a cappuccino machine." and rated the film 5 out of 10. Time Out gave the film a score of 2 out of 5, describing it as "A sickly sweet capitalist allegory that severely lacks substance". However, it added that the film "gets extra marks for the production design and ultra-clean shooting style".
Taipei Exchanges grossed a total of US$17,773 at the Singaporean box office.
