# Henry Verdhurdt

Camille Henry Joseph Verdhurdt was a 19th-century Belgian baritone, singing teacher and theatre director.

## Life

Born in Namur, he married the granddaughter of François-Joseph Fétis, sang in several French productions and published several works on music, before becoming the director of the Théâtre de la Monnaie in Brussels in 1885–1886, following Oscar Stoumon and Édouard-Fortuné Calabresi [fr]. That season was financially disastrous, but Verdhurdt still managed to stage Gwendoline by Chabrier, which had been refused by the Opéra de Paris. The evening performance of 10 April 1886 was a triumph but Verdhurdt handed in his notice the following day. He was later director of the Théâtre de Rouen in 1889–1890.
# Jean-Claude Hartemann

Jean-Claude Hartemann (18 December 1929 – 27 November 1993) was a 20th-century French conductor.

## Biography

Born in Vezet (Haute-Saône), a student of Jean Fournet at the École Normale de Musique de Paris, Hartemann took part to the 1956 Besançon International Competition. From 1957 to 1960, he was first conductor of the Grand Théâtre lyrique de Dijon, where he met Jésus Etcheverry, with whom he perfected his training. From 1960 to 1963, he was musical director of the Théâtre de Metz, then permanent head of the Réunion des théâtres lyriques nationaux [fr]. Regularly invited to the Opéra-Comique, he was its musical director from 1968 to 1972. He founded several ensembles, including the Ensemble instrumental de France in 1966, the Solistes de France in 1971, and the Rencontres lyriques de Luchon [fr] in 1988. A talented Mozartian, he recorded several French operettas, Gounod's St. Cecilia Mass, and created works by Franck Martin. From 1972 to 1977 he taught at the Schola Cantorum de Paris, then at the Centre culturel d'Évry. In a context of crisis in orchestral conducting in France, he is one of the very few conductors to have passed on his profession, whose lyrical repertoire was for him the essential basis.
Jean-Claude Hartemann died in Paris in 1993 at age 63.
# Alvena Sečkar

Alvena Vajda Sečkar (March 1, 1916 – March 8, 2012) was an American painter, children's book author, and social activist. The child of Slovakian immigrants to the United States, much of her work deals with the immigrant experience in Appalachian coal mining towns.
Alvena Sečkar was born on March 1, 1916 in McMechen, West Virginia. Her father Valentine Sečkar was from Ružindol and her mother Susan "Zuzi" Vadjdak was from Orava. Her family moved frequently and her schooling was sporadic until her mother left her father due to his alcoholism, eventually settling in Allentown, Pennsylvania in 1929 and opening a small restaurant at 127 Allen Street in Allentown.

## Early life and education

Sečkar attended William Allen High School and Kline-Baum Art School in Allentown, Pennsylvania. She attended the University of Pennsylvania but transferred to New York University, graduating in 1939. That summer, she earned a scholarship to study at the Institut d'Art et d'Archéologie in Paris, then went on a trip to Russia.

## Career

When World War II began in September 1939, Sečkar returned to the United States via the Netherlands. From 1941 to 1942, she served as the Assistant Keeper for Textiles at the Cooper Union Museum. During the 1940s, she had one-woman shows in New York City and Pittsburg. She earned a master's degree from NYU in 1949.
In the 1950s, Sečkar failed to become a book illustrator, so she began writing her own children's books, depicting the poverty and danger of her childhood experience. In 1952, the New York Times named her book Zuska of the Burning Hills one of the "hundred best books published for children. Her other books were Mischko and Trapped in the Old Mine.
Sečkar saw herself as a political artist and throughout her life devoted artistic and personal effort to a variety of causes. At NYU, she created posters in support of the Abraham Lincoln Brigade. In the 1980s, she sent a painting to Cesar Chavez of his mother's childhood church, the Mission San Xavier del Bac, and he proudly hung it in his office. Her painting of an African-American girl being driven to school amidst anti-desegregation protests is in the National Civil Rights Museum in New Orleans.
Sečkar spent the rest of her life in Pompton Lakes, New Jersey, where she became a local fixture and where May 24 was designated "Alvena Seckar Day" in the town. She developed multiple sclerosis in 1964 and, in 1974, was confined to a wheelchair. When she lost use of her right arm, she learned to paint left-handed. In 1986, Newsweek named her one of America's 100 "unsung heroes".

# Sipper water bottle

A sipper water bottle is a type of bottle used to dispense water for certain pets including rabbits, ferrets, hamsters, chinchillas, gerbils, and other small animals. Typically a sipper bottle consists of a plastic portion used to contain the water, a plastic cap, and a metal tube with a ball bearing inside.
The vacuum formed by the presence of the ball bearing keeps water from flowing out of the bottle. An animal can interrupt this vacuum by pressing against the ball bearing and forcing it slightly up the tube—thus an animal can drink from the bottle by licking the metal ball bearing.
A water bottle can be affixed to the side of an animal's cage from the outside (using the wire that normally comes with the bottle) or from the inside (using a separate water bottle holder utilizing a suction cup or a metal support, both of which can be purchased at most pet stores).
