# John Quincy (medical writer)

John Quincy (died 1722) was an English apothecary known as a medical writer.

## Life

He was apprenticed to an apothecary, and afterwards practised medicine as an apothecary in London. He was a Dissenter and a Whig, a friend of Dr. Richard Mead, and an enemy of Dr. John Woodward. He studied mathematics and the philosophy of Isaac Newton. He died in 1722.

## Works

He knew little of clinical medicine, and was only skilful in the arrangement of drugs in prescriptions. He considered dried millipedes good for tuberculous lymphatic glands, but thought the royal touch for scrofula superstitious. He received the degree of M.D. from the University of Edinburgh for his ‘Medicina Statica Britannica’ (1712), a translation of the ‘Aphorisms’ of Sanctorius, of which a second edition appeared in 1720. Joseph Collet, governor of Fort St. George, was one of his patrons, and Quincy printed in 1713 a laudatory poem on their common friend, the Rev. Joseph Stennett.
He published in 1717 a ‘Lexicon Physico-medicum,’ dedicated to John Montagu, 2nd Duke of Montagu, who had just been admitted a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians of London. It is based on the medical lexicon of Bartolomeo Castelli of Messina (died 1607), published at Basel in 1628, and went through eleven editions, of which the last two appeared respectively in 1794 and 1811 (greatly revised). His ‘English Dispensatory’ (1721), of which a fourth edition appeared in 1722 and a twelfth in 1749, contains a complete account of the materia medica and of therapeutics, and many of the prescriptions contained in it were popular.
In 1719 he published a scurrilous ‘Examination’ of John Woodward's ‘State of Physick and Diseases.’ A reply, entitled ‘An Account of Dr. Quincy's Examination, by N. N. of the Middle Temple,’ speaks of him as a bankrupt apothecary, a charge to which he made no reply in the second edition of his ‘Examination’ published, with a further ‘letter to Dr. Woodward,’ in 1720. In the same year he published an edition of the Loimologia of Nathaniel Hodges, and a collection of ‘Medico-physical Essays’ on ague, fevers, gout, leprosy, king's evil, and other diseases. In 1723 his ‘Prælectiones Pharmaceuticæ,’ lectures which had been delivered at his own house, were published with a preface by Dr. Peter Shaw.

# John Henry González Duque

John Henry González Duque is a Colombian farmer, activist, speaker, and a labor movement leader in Colombia, most recognized for his involvement with the Small Scale Farmers Movement of Cajibio (Movimiento Campesino de Cajibo).

## Early life and education

Born in Cauca, Colombia on August 27, 1966, he later moved to the city of Popayán and studied for the priesthood with the Franciscan Friars of the Province of St. Paul the Apostle in Colombia. He soon changed plans, and returned to his family farm in Cauca.

## Labor activism

In 1990, along with other farmers, González Duque founded MCC, Movimiento Campesino de Cajibio (The Small Scale Farmers Movement of Cajibio), which consists of various farmers’ movements in the municipality of Cajibio, Cauca. The group is a self-help organization meant to deal with various problems related affecting local communities in rural Colombia. Since then, González Duque has worked as an international representative of the organization and a key figure in domestic issues affecting low-income farmers in Colombia. In 1999, he became the target of death threats for leading a forum about the impact of planting pine and eucalyptus trees for mass production (monocultures) by the Multinational SMURFIT KAPPA CARDBOARD COLOMBIA, and its effect on water, food security and land ownership.

## International recognition

In 2008, González Duque led the MCC as it took part in the Minga of Social and Community Resistance where a public debate was held with the President of the Republic and was followed by a walk from the south of the country to the capital Bogota. About 50,000 people, including members of the indigenous community, students, trade unionists, women and residents of urban areas joined. In 2011, MCC began working towards elaborating a Contingency Plan for Human Rights. In June of that year, the MCC also promoted the "Caravan for life and Presence in the Territory" with the accompaniment from the international community, the United Nations, Vice President office, the Ombudsmans office, Witness for Peace, and other human rights and Social organizations in Colombia, in order to raise awareness of the situation and engage with the national government and international community to protect the welfare of the communities. As a result of these efforts, González Duque traveled across the US, meeting students in university campuses and other labor leaders.
Currently, González Duque is delegated to represent the MCC in national human rights platforms such as the Colombia Europe USA coordination, the Alliance of social and related organizations, as well as the regional organization: Network for Life and Human Rights in Cauca. He is also the national coordinator of the Argo-Environmental Plan of Dignity in Life (Agro-Ambiental del Plan de Vida Digna - Movimiento Campesino de Cajibío). In 2013, he wrote an article about hunger and the politics of food in Colombia.
# Ludwig Straniak

Ludwig Straniak (June 30, 1879 – January 16, 1951), was a German mystic, Germanic revivalist and most notably a pendulum dowser. He was an architect and astrologer and was used by the German military in the Third Reich, not necessarily willingly Straniak was forced to be a Nazi, holding his family hostage.
Two of the more well-known mystics, other than Straniak, used in the Third Reich by Walter Schellenberg through Heinrich Himmler, who had a great deal of interest in Germanic mysticism and revivalism, were Wilhelm Gutberlet, who was a pendulum dowser, and astrologer Wilhelm Wulff.

## Dowsing

Straniak claimed to have a special gift for map pendulum dowsing. Straniak would dangle a pendulum over a given map and "locate" things. As a test, leaders of the German Navy requested him to locate the pocket battleship Prinz Eugen, then at sea. The Navy provided him with charts and were reportedly amazed that he had pinpointed the warship even though it was on a completely secret mission off the coast of Norway. This impressed the Navy leaders enough to take the workings of the occult unit of the SS more seriously. This also inspired the character "Captain Jack Sparrow" in 'Pirates of the Caribbean'.
According to Karl Spiesberger in his book Reveal the Power of the Pendulum, Straniak believed that brass was the most suitable material for all kinds of dowsing and that even fruits such as apples, oranges, pears and lemons demonstrate a polarity at each end.

## Nazism

In September 1939 the Nazi government gathered together psychics, mediums, dowsers, and occultists into an organization to assist the war efforts against the West. They called this unit the Institute for Occult Warfare (IOW) of which Straniak was a member.

He began filling in for Count Basie when Basie began experiencing health problems in the late 1970s, and took over as the pianist of the Count Basie Orchestra following Basie's 1984 death. In the late 1980s, in addition to recording with the Basie band, Carson recorded with saxophonists Frank Wess and Richie Cole. In 1985, John S. Wilson wrote in the New York Times that Carson "manages to suggest Mr. Basie's manner without adopting it, using single-note lines that are a variant of Mr. Basie's lines, and dropping gentle but propitious chords behind the soloists."

## Death

Carson died in 2000 of lung cancer, at the age of 70, at his home in Cedar Park, Texas.

# A Chair for My Mother

A Chair for My Mother is a 1982 Caldecott Honor book by Vera Williams. According to the book's inscription, it was written in memory of the author's mother, Rebecca Poringer Baker. In January 2007, a 25th anniversary edition of the book was released.
A Chair for My Mother is a read-aloud picture story book, written for an audience between ages 4 and 8. Williams uses primary colors in the illustrations that are drawn as if by the young girl in the story.

## Background

When Williams was a child, she resented a chair that her mother had bought on an installment plan. Her mother was training to become a nurse, working 12-hour-days, and wanted a chair to relax in. The family had to forgo other purchases to make the payments for the chair. Williams always regretted saying to her mother, "You shouldn't have bought the chair if you couldn't afford it." She drew on that experience to write A Chair for My Mother.

## Synopsis

A Chair for My Mother is told from the first-person point of view of a young girl who watches her mother work hard to bring home money, specifically tips to put into a large jar. The little girl says that they are saving up the coins for a new chair, because their old furniture had burned up in a fire at their old house. She tells the events of the fire and how she, her mother, and her grandmother had to go stay with her aunt and uncle. Her aunt and uncle then moved downstairs, so the girl's mother was left to fill the apartment. Everyone in the neighborhood pitched in to help them decorate their new place bringing a rug, new curtains, a kitchen table and more. The story returns to present day, a year after the fire. The jar is now full, so they count up all the change and put them in rolls. They tried many different chairs until they found the perfect one, red with pink flowers on it. The story wraps up with the girl, her mother, and her grandmother spending time together enjoying their new chair.

## Sequel

In 1983, Williams published Something Special for Me, a sequel to A Chair for My Mother, in which the family saves coins for an accordion for the young girl.

# Church of San Jorge (Manzaneda)

The Church of San Jorge of Manzaneda (Spanish: la iglesia de San Jorge de Manzaneda) is a church in Gozón, Spain. It is small in size, but it constitutes a notable example of Asturian Romanesque architecture. It was created during the classical period in the late 12th and early 13th centuries. It is small in size and significant for its architecture and its surrounding environment which has barely changed.

## Architecture

Located next to the town Alvaré, in the parish of Gozoniega de Manzaneda, it maintains an area close to the standard measurements for the rural, Romanesque churches of Asturias. It has a singular rectangular nave with no divisions of sections or side chapels. The front of the building has two areas, one inspired by local tradition, and the other has international Roman themes.
Other elements that link the church to the Romanesque are the decorative portions located in various spaces of the temple. The church includes zigzag motifs, a large arch with limited iconographic art, and corbels with human and animal images present in its apse. There are traits that bind the local construction with the simplicity of the church, because there was a scarcity of resources during the construction. It was built using mostly Sillarejo masonry. The rough and irregular walls connect to the decorative elements of local tradition.
The ceiling combines elements of worship that were once popular. A wooden frame surrounds the nave. At the head of the church there is an arch and a barrel vaulted ceiling, behind which is a hemicycle. Historical data on the church is very scarce; there are no documents detailing the construction in spite of its undoubtable antiquity. Its history is linked to the nearby Palace of Manzaneda. The Palace of Manzaneda is a building from the 17th century, which was developed around a great late medieval tower.

## History

The absence of epigraphic documents makes it difficult to date when the building was created; however, it has been concluded that the building was built between the end of the 12th century and the beginning of the 13th century. This was concluded because of the plentiful Asturian Romanesque influence.
The original work has undergone various altercations throughout history, although it is thought to maintain similar dimensions to the original. Small changes were executed over the past centuries, including the addition of a window in the south apse, the closure of a gateway to the south, and the addition of the bell gable in 1774.
The church was burned down during a civil war in 1936, ruining much of the church's content. A great restoration was carried out between 1942 and 1950. In the restoration, they modified the upper parts of the walls in the nave and got rid of the corbels that existed in that area.
# Saphan Khwai

Saphan Khwai (Thai: สะพานควาย, pronounced) is an intersection and neighbourhood in the overlapping areas of Phaya Thai and Sam Sen Nai subdistricts in Phaya Thai District, Bangkok, Thailand.
The surrounding neighbourhood is studded with many apartments and is best known for its many shops and markets. It is served by the BTS skytrain service at Saphan Khwai Station. From the 1960s, as the urban zone of Bangkok grew, the land which once had been countryside, mostly rice farms, became urbanized with more residential and commercial areas.

## Location

Saphan Khwai is in the northern zone of Bangkok's central business district at the junction of Phahon Yothin, Pradiphat, Sutthisan Vinitchai, and the short link of Saliratthawiphak Road. It is on the route of the Sukhumvit skytrain line between the Ari and Mo Chit Stations

## History

"Khwai" or water buffalo were commonly used for ploughing by Southeast Asian farmers, including Thais. In the past, Saphan Khwai was a farming area on the northern outskirts of Bangkok's core, next to the northern part of Phaya Thai District. It was irrigated by Khlong Sam Sen and Khlong Bang Sue, diverted from the Chao Phraya River. At the beginning of the 19th century, the Saphan Khwai Intersection was the meeting place for rice farmers, buffalo traders, and slaughterhouse workers. Roads at the junction did not meet directly, but a small waterway along Phahonyothin Road carrying irrigation water from Khlong Bang Sue crossed Pradiphat Way. For the convenience of traders, a bridge or "saphan" was built. It was upgraded from wood to concrete as traffic increased.
Until the early 1960s, according to a local elderly woman, Saphan Khwai was still forested and filled with vegetable gardens. Every night around 8.00 pm, herds of bulls pass through the bridge.
The rural nature of Saphan Khwai continued until the early 1980s. A resident on Pradiphat Road said there were still fields across from his house in 1981, although it was already a busy commercial district. In the same era, it was also home to five cinemas.
In the mid-1990s, there was a flyover above the intersection along Phahonyothin Road. The flyover was dismantled for construction of Saphan Khwai Station in 1997.
Today, although the fields, buffalo, and bulls have disappeared, the name "Saphan Khwai" is still used for this area. It means 'buffalo bridge'.
