# William Burrus

William Henry Burrus (December 13, 1936 – May 19, 2018) was an American labor union leader.
Born in Wheeling, West Virginia, Burrus studied at West Virginia State College, then joined the United States Army, serving in the 101st Airborne Division and the 4th Armored Division. In 1957, he left the army, and became a distribution clerk with the United States Postal Service, based in Cleveland.
Burrus joined the American Postal Workers Union. He took part in the U.S. postal strike of 1970, and was elected as president of his local union. While in this role, he became the founding president of the union's National Presidents Conference, and led a movement in 1978 which successfully rejected a collective bargaining agreement which would have limited cost-of-living increases.
In 1980, Burrus was elected as executive vice president of the union, leading negotiations with the postal service. In 2001, he was elected as the union's president, the first African American to become leader of a national union through a direct ballot of the union membership. As president, he campaigned against government efforts to worsen postal workers' pay and conditions, and following the 2001 anthrax attacks, campaigned for safer working conditions.
Burrus also served as a vice-president of the AFL-CIO. He retired from all his posts in 2010, and died in 2018.
# Our Lady of the Sphere

Our Lady of the Sphere is a 1969 American experimental film directed by Larry Jordan.

## Summary

The experimental film features ambiguous characters (a boy, a deep-sea diver and a mystical lady with an orbital head) on a surrealist dream-like journey full of various imagery through juxtaposed with symbols and images from themes such as antiquity to the space age, accompanied by alternating backgrounds, before the film ends in a garden.

## Legacy

Our Lady of the Sphere is now part of Anthology Film Archives' Essential Cinema Repertory collection. In 2010, it was selected for preservation by the National Film Registry.
# Auda of France

Auda, Aida, Alda, Aldana or Adalne (c. 722 – before 755?) was wife of Frankish nobleman Thierry IV, count of Autun and mother of Saint William of Gellone.

## Marriage and children

She was married to Thierry IV, perhaps a nephew, grandson or grand-nephew of Bertrada of Prüm, in 742 and in 750. From this marriage were born:
* Theodoen (died before 826), count of Autun, mentioned in 804, whose son Thierry was active in the 810s.
* Adalhelm
* William, count of Toulouse and founder of the Abbey of Gellone.
* Abba and Berta, mentioned as nuns in 804. One of them was probably married to a Nibelungid, Childebrand II or Nibelung II.

## Debated Parentage

There are no direct primary sources claiming Auda to be a daughter of Charles Martel and secondary evidence is scarce. Sources from Aquitaine name one of her sisters as “Hiltrudis,” a name shared by one of Charles Martel’s daughters. Additionally, scholars have noted that Auda’s son, William of Gellone, named one of his sons “Bernard,” a Carolingian name. Auda being a daughter of Charles Martel could explain how a Carolingian name became accepted by the family. However, scholar Constance Brittain Bouchard argues that such evidence is weak and circumstantial at best.

# Takasago Volunteers

Takasago volunteers (高砂義勇隊, Takasago Giyūtai) were volunteer soldiers in the Imperial Japanese Army, recruited from Taiwanese indigenous peoples (also known as Taiwanese aborigines) during World War II. The Takasago volunteers are distinguished from ethnic Chinese Taiwanese volunteers.

## Background and history

After the Empire of Japan's annexation of Taiwan as a result of the First Sino-Japanese War in 1894, the Japanese government pursued a policy of cultural assimilation, directed especially towards the various groups of Taiwanese aborigines.
The Imperial Japanese Army was interested in the use of Taiwanese indigenous people in special forces operations, as they were viewed as being more physically capable of operating in the tropical and sub-tropical regions in Southeast Asia than ethnic Japanese, and, coming from a hunter-gatherer culture, would be able to operate with minimal logistics support.
The Japanese military recruited many young men from friendly indigenous groups into service shortly before the start of World War II. The total number was confidential and estimates on the numbers recruited range from 1,800 to 5,000 men. Training was under the direction of officers from the Nakano School, which specialized in insurgency and guerilla warfare.
Initially assigned to transport and supply units, as the war condition progressively deteriorated for Imperial Japanese forces, Takasago volunteers were later sent to frontline areas as combat troops (before ethnic Chinese Taiwanese volunteers used in the same way). Units consisting entirely of Takasago volunteers served with distinction in the Philippines, Netherlands East Indies, Solomon Islands and New Guinea (including the Kokoda Track), where they fought against American and Australian forces.
Towards the end of the war, 15 officers and 45 enlisted members of the Takasago Volunteers were organized into the Kaoru Special Attack Corps for a suicide mission similar to that of the Giretsu Kuteitai, and attacked a United States Army Air Forces landing strip on Leyte. The Takasago Volunteers were well known for their jungle survival ability.
The most notable Takasago Volunteer is Teruo Nakamura (Attun Palalin), the last confirmed Japanese holdout, who surrendered on Morotai Island in Indonesia in December 1974. Nakamura was an Amis volunteer and was discovered 29 years, 3 months, and 16 days after the Japanese Instrument of Surrender was signed in August 1945, having lived in solitude in the jungle for almost 20 years after leaving other holdouts in 1956.

# Physical Review E

Physical Review E is a peer-reviewed, scientific journal, published monthly by the American Physical Society. The main field of interest is collective phenomena of many-body systems. It is edited by Dario Corradini as of December 2024. While original research content requires subscription, editorials, news, and other non-research content is openly accessible.

## Scope

Although the focus of this journal is many-body phenomena, the broad scope of the journal includes quantum chaos, soft matter physics, classical chaos, biological physics and granular materials.
Also emphasized are statistical physics, equilibrium and transport properties of fluids, liquid crystals, complex fluids, polymers, chaos, fluid dynamics, plasma physics, classical physics, and computational physics.

## Former names

This journal began as "Physical Review" in 1893. In 1913 the American Physical Society took over Physical Review. In 1970 Physical Review was subdivided into Physical Review A, B, C, and D. From 1990 until 1993 a process was underway which split the journal then entitled Physical Review A: General Physics into two journals. Hence, from 1993 until 2000, one of the split off journals became Physical Review E: Statistical Physics, Plasmas, Fluids, and Related Interdisciplinary Topics. In 2001 the journal was changed, in name, to its present title. As an aside, in January 2007, the section which published works on classical optics was transferred from Physical Review E to Physical Review A. This action unified the classical and quantum parts of optics into a single journal.

## Rapid Communications

Physical Review E Rapid Communications was announced on June 7, 2010. This section (or feature) gives priority to results which are deemed significant, and merits a prominent display on the Physical Review E website. The specific article is displayed for several weeks, and is part of a rotation with other articles, also deemed significant.

# Barbers, Beauticians and Allied Industries International Association

The Barbers, Beauticians and Allied Industries International Association (BBAIIA) was a labor union representing workers in the personal grooming industry in the United States and Canada.
The union was founded on December 5, 1887, as the Journeymen Barbers' International Union of America. Its original locals had previously formed part of the Knights of Labor. In 1888, it was charted by the American Federation of Labor. In 1924, the union began admitting women, but its constitution explicitly barred people of East Asian ethnicity from joining. By 1925, it had 50,282 members and had headquarters in Indianapolis.
In 1941, the union renamed itself as the Journeymen Barbers', Hairdressers' and Cosmetologists' International Union of America. It joined the new AFL-CIO in 1955, and was joined by the Barbers' and Beauty Culturists' Union of America in 1956. By 1957 it had 72,000 members, but this fell to 40,000 in 1980. That year, it merged into the United Food and Commercial Workers.
