## Biography

Maxx Kidd was born on August 8, 1941, and raised in Charleston, West Virginia. During his youth in West Virginia, he met Nat King Cole in a nightclub which was owned by his father. This encounter sparked Kidd's interest in the music industry. Thereafter, he became a calypso singer at a drive-in restaurant.
Kidd briefly served in the United States Army before relocating to Washington, D.C. in 1960. After arriving in D.C., Kidd joined soul group The Enjoyables, whose members included Keni St. Lewis, James Johnson, William Britton, Gerald Richardson, and Sidney Hall. The group released their debut single "Push a Little Harder" on Capitol Records in 1964, and the follow-up single "Shame" in 1966 on the D.C.-based label Shrine Records. Additionally, Kidd also worked with Curtis Mayfield's record label "Curtom Records", where he collaborated with Jerry Butler, Gene Chandler and Chuck Brown & the Soul Searchers. He created his own record label T.T.E.D. (the initials stood for "Tolerance, Trust, Eternal dedication, and Determination") and released numerous go-go singles and albums.
In 1992, Kidd suffered a stroke and was faced with continuing health issues for the remainder of his life. He died on March 13, 2017, in Chevy Chase, Maryland at the age of 75. Kidd was survived by five daughters, one son, eleven grandchildren, four great-grandchildren, four siblings, and a son-in-law.
# Qauqaut people

The Qauqaut (Chinese: 猴猴族; pinyin: Hóuhóuzú) were a Taiwanese Indigenous people who lived primarily in the town of Su-ao in Yilan County. They spoke the Basay language, which is a Kavalanic language, an Austronesian language family of Taiwan. According to Japanese anthropologist Inō Kanori, the Qauqaut people had been assimilated by the Kavalan people by early 20th century. The Qauqaut people are not recognised by the government of Taiwan.
According to oral tradition from various Atayal villages, the Qauqaut originally settled in the middle portion of the Takiri River (Wade–Giles: Liwuhsi). In the mid-1700s, following pressure from Atayals, they moved to the east coast down the Takiri. Later, some moved north to Langsu in Nan'ao County.
Early modern Chinese documents on the Kavalan territories reported that the Qauqaut were linguistically and culturally distinct from the other Formosan ethnic groups and that they did not intermarry with the other communities.
Taiwanese linguist Paul Jen-kuei Li hypothesised that, in about 200 BCE, the Qauqaut migrated from Southeast Asia to the Marshall Islands and the Caroline Islands and in around 1000 AD arrived on the east coast of Taiwan, based on his linguistic comparison with the nearby Taroko (Seediq) language of Taiwan, which he said varies greatly from the Qauqaut. This contrasts with the rest of the Taiwanese aborigines, who are said to have arrived on the island much earlier.
The Qauqaut bury the dead in a sitting position, like those of neighbouring villages in southern Kavalan territory.
# Fred Mendelsohn

# Siege of Kulaca Hisar

The Siege of Kulacahisar or Raid of Kulacahisar was a battle fought between the Byzantines and the Turks under the command of Osman Gazi in 1285 for control of Fort Kulaca.

## Battle

After the Reconquest of Constantinople, the Byzantine capital returned to Constantinople and their authority on the Anatolian frontiers was loosened. When Osman Bey came to power in the Kayi Tribe following the death of his father Ertuğrul Gazi, he established friendly relations with the Tekfurs of Yenisehir and Lefke. The landlord of Inegol, Aya Nikola was determined to reverse the enroachment of the Turks upon Bithynia and started plundering Kayi markets. When Osman Bey moved towards Inegol seeking retribution, he was ambushed at the Battle of Mount Armenia [tr] by Nikola and his retinue. The Kayi were vastly outnumbered so sustained heavy casualties. Even Bayhoca, son of his brother Savcı Bey and a renowned warrior, was killed. The Turkish cavalry managed to escape with their sword high to break the Byzantine line. There was no winner to this battle as both sides had to retreat back into their own lands and regroup.

## Siege

As revenge for all those slain on the mountain, Osman attacked the Byzantine-held Kulacahisar Castle, which is 5 kilometers away from Inegöl and located on the outskirts of Emirdağ to protect the city. A few men snuck into the fortress disguised as Romans, neutralized the guards and opened the gates. As a result of a night raid with a force of 2,000, the castle was captured by the Turks. This is the first castle conquered in the history of the Ottoman Empire. Since the captured Christian people of Kulaca Hisar accepted the rule of Osman Bey, they were not harmed.
# Uacilla

Hory-Uacilla (Ossetian: Уацилла, Wacilla; Digorian: Елиа, "Elijah") or Uacilla, Wacilla for short, is the name of Saint Elijah in Ossetian folklore.
It is also the name of an agricultural holiday celebrated on the Monday of the third week after Pentecost.
In Ossetian mythology Uacilla is the thunderer and lord of storms, the patron of agriculture and harvest. Several sanctuaries were dedicated to him, among which the most famous Tbau-Uacilla is located on mount Tbau in the Dargavs Gorge.
Among the Ossetians, it is believed that Uacilla protected the fields from hail and showers, disposed of rain clouds and contributed to the growth of cereals and herbs. He was approached during a drought or prolonged bad weather. For this, rams and bulls were slaughtered in his honor and a public prayer was held. In folk songs, Uacilla was portrayed as a plowman, performing the functions of a plow in one case and a sower in another.
As Georges Dumézil wrote, Ossetians having become Christians began to call St. Elijah "Uacilla". Like the Russians, they think that Uacilla is walking through the sky and fighting evil spirits. When a person is struck by lightning, they believe that Uacilla fired his "fat" (arrow or cannonball) at him.

## Celebration

Despite the general basis, the celebration of Uacilla in some areas had its own local characteristics. In South Ossetia the holiday was widely celebrated in the village of Edisa. The celebration in this village lasted for a whole week. Here the saint was also called Tbau-Uatsilla, which is obviously due to the fact that people from the Dargavs Gorge settled in this place, who brought with them the name used at their former place of residence.
The celebration was accompanied by sacrifices, community and family feasts. At the end of the repast, which was held separately in each family, the older men took the skin of the sacrificial goat (in which the head and legs were left) and carried it into the forest and hung it on the first tree they encountered.
In the first half of the 19th century the researcher of Ossetian traditions A. Yanovsky reported that on this holiday "Ossetians slaughter goats, remove the skin without cutting off the head and hang it on a high pole in honor of the prophet Elijah, asking him to send rain."

# Martha Mears (author)

Martha Mears was an eighteenth-century midwife and author.
Mears was a midwife, mother, and author in London, England. Her work, Pupil of Nature, was published in 1797. The full title is Pupil of Nature: or Candid advice to the fair sex, on the subjects of pregnancy, childbirth, the diseases incident to both, the fatal effects of ignorance and quackery, and the most approved means of promoting health, strength and beauty of their offspring. It consists of 11 essays, each divided into numbered sections, about topics from the state of the womb before and after conception, to the effect of music on nerves. She depicted the pregnant woman as a cluster of symptoms to be managed, particularly with regard to her psychological state. Mears subscribed to the common notion that "irritability" of the pregnant woman’s uterus induced a heightened "sensibility". The organization and broad scope of the text mirrored this representation of the body as a bundle of potential pathologies. A contemporary review of her work describes its purpose being to teach women the important advantages of pursuing nature's plans in everything that relates to the pregnant state. Mears' studied the writings of Harvey, Leake, Smellie and Denman.

## Legacy

Mears' was the last major contributor to the eighteenth-century midwifery dispute. Her work is considered an eighteenth-century version of the popular prenatal guide What to Expect When You’re Expecting.
In 1979, the American feminist artist Judy Chicago paid tribute to her by quoting her in her major work The Dinner Party.
# Solfatara (volcano)

Solfatara (Italian: Solfatara di Pozzuoli) is a shallow volcanic crater at Pozzuoli, near Naples, part of the Phlegraean Fields (Italian: Campi Flegrei) volcanic area. It is a dormant volcano, which still emits jets of steam with sulfurous fumes. The name comes from the Latin, Sulpha terra, "land of sulfur", or "sulfur earth". It was formed around 4000 years ago and last erupted in 1198 with what was probably a phreatic eruption – an explosive steam-driven eruption caused when groundwater interacts with magma. The crater floor was a popular tourist attraction until 2017, as it has many fumaroles and mud pools. The area is well known for its bradyseism. The vapours had been used for medical purposes since Roman times.
This volcano is where the thermoacidophilic archaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus was first isolated. The archaeon is named for the volcano, as most species of the genus Sulfolobus are named for the area where they are first isolated.

## Notable events

Saint Proculus (the patron saint of Pozzuoli) and Saint Januarius (the patron saint of Naples) were beheaded at Solfatara in 305.
In 2017, three people—an 11-year-old boy and his parents—died, when they fell into a chasm. Initial rumors that claimed that the boy had entered an off-limits area of the crater were declared false by an eyewitness who had watched the scene unfold from her balcony. According to the eyewitness, the family were on the official walking path, when the 11-year-old slipped into the unsecured chasm. His parents died in an attempt to save him. The only survivor was the boy's 7-year-old brother.

# Rockette Morton

Rockette Morton (born Mark Boston; July 14, 1949 in Salem, Illinois) is an American musician, best known as a bassist and guitarist for Captain Beefheart and the Magic Band in the 1960s and 1970s.

## Career

In 1963, after moving to Lancaster, California, Boston joined up with future Magic Band member Bill Harkleroad (aka Zoot Horn Rollo) in a band named B.C. & the Cavemen.
He was given the nickname "Rockette Morton" by Captain Beefheart after becoming a member of the Magic Band. Morton played on five of Beefheart's albums: Trout Mask Replica (produced by Frank Zappa in 1969), Lick My Decals Off Baby (1970), The Spotlight Kid (1972), Clear Spot (1972) and Unconditionally Guaranteed (1974). He originally played bass, but switched to rhythm guitar after former Little Feat bassist Roy Estrada joined the band.
In the book Lunar Notes: Zoot Horn Rollo's Captain Beefheart Experience, guitarist Bill Harkleroad details some of the tensions that arose between Beefheart and members of the band. These tensions led to a split in 1974, when Rockette Morton left to form Mallard with bandmates John French, Bill Harkleroad, and Art Tripp. Mallard released two albums, Mallard (1975) and In A Different Climate (1976). Following the band's demise, Morton continued performing in various groups as guitarist and bassist.
Morton released a solo album, Love Space, in 2003, about which he wrote: "If you enjoy listening to this music even half as much as I enjoyed recording it, I did my job." It was recorded at his music studio in Aiken, South Carolina.
Prior to the album's release he was featured in an article in the music magazine Stomp & Stammer (October 2002), titled "The Ring of Rockette Morton", in which he self-identified as "a space nut" and being "pro-space". He was 52 years old at the time and was living in a mobile home, decorated with alien and rocket ship models.
In 2003 Morton and other former members of the Magic Band regrouped and embarked on a world tour, performing Captain Beefheart's music. They have continued to tour regularly as the Magic Band since then.

Elisabeth Marschall (May 27, 1886 – May 3, 1947) was the head nurse (Oberschwester) at the Nazi Ravensbrück concentration camp and was executed after the Hamburg Ravensbrück trials.

## Early life

Marschall was born in 1886 and received her nursing education in Meiningen, passing the state exam in 1910. She joined the Nazi party because "Hitler could save Germany from its misery".

## Camp career

Marschall worked as Oberschwester at Ravensbrück concentration camp from April 1943 until the camps liberation, where her duties included selecting prisoners for execution, overseeing medical experiments, and selecting around 800 prisoners to be shipped to Auschwitz. She worked with Dr. Adolf Winkelmann and Dr. Percival Treite, assisting in torture of prisoners and providing postoperative care to the subjects of their experimental operations.
A survivor who worked as a prisoner-nurse testified that Marschall had loaded a group of 50 women with new-born infants onto a cart and did not provide them with food, milk or water. All of the prisoners passed away. Another witness testified that "I have seen schwester (nurse) Lisa beating sick women without any reason at all."
Mil Le Coq, a French trained nurse, reported an incident with Marschall, recounted in The Scourge of the Swastika: A Short History of Nazi War Crimes:
   She "passed through the hospital courtyard one day on her way to the laboratory and saw five wheelbarrows containing ... five Jewesses - the triangle on their dresses indicated that... Mil Le Coq went to the barrows and touched the bodies to see if whether they were alive and if anything could be done for them. They were alive. At that moment Marschall came on to the scene and, shouting across the yard, forbade the French girl to do anything to help the women. She returned to her block and bought two friends ... but Marshcall appeared and drove them away. The barrows remained there all night and by the morning the three survivors were dead."

## Trial

Marschall was arrested when the camp was liberated. At the Hamburg Ravensbrück trials, she was found guilty and sentenced to death. On 2 May 1947, she was hanged by British executioner Albert Pierrepoint on the gallows in Hamelin Prison.
