## Biography

Clapp was born in Killingly, Connecticut in 1811, a descendant of immigrant Thomas Clapp of Dorchester, England and a cousin of Roger Clapp who arrived in America on the 1630 voyage of the Mary and John. His family moved to Livingston County, New York in 1818, and at age 14 he became a printer's apprentice in Genesee, New York. He moved to Buffalo, New York in 1828, and after finishing his education engaging in commerce for a few years, founded the Aurora Standard in 1835. In 1838, he became editor and part owner of the Buffalo Commercial Advertiser, where he remained until he founded the Buffalo Express in 1846. He served in the State Assembly in 1853 as a Whig, but by 1856 he was a leader at the Pittsburgh convention of the new Republican Party. He was the party's nominee for Secretary of State of New York in the 1857 election, losing to Gideon J. Tucker.
In 1861, President Abraham Lincoln appointed Clapp to be postmaster of Buffalo. He was reappointed in 1865 and served until President Andrew Johnson removed him in June 1866. In 1869 the United States Senate elected him to be Congressional Printer, and he sold the Express. When the title Public Printer of the United States was created in 1876, he continued as printer in that title for another year. In 1877, he bought the National Republican newspaper in Washington, D.C., which was a pro-Republican paper, and owned it until 1880.
Clapp died at his home in Washington in April 1899. He is buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Buffalo.

# Idle (CPU)

Idle is a state that a computer processor is in when it is not being used by any program.
Every program or task that runs on a computer system occupies a certain amount of processing time on the CPU. If the CPU has completed all tasks it is idle.
Modern processors use idle time to save power. Common methods are reducing the clock speed along with the CPU voltage and sending parts of the processor into a sleep state. On processors that have a halt instruction that stops the CPU until an interrupt occurs, such as x86's HLT instruction, it may save significant amounts of power and heat if the idle task consists of a loop which repeatedly executes that instruction.
Many operating systems, for example Windows, Linux, and macOS will run an idle task, which is a special task loaded by the OS scheduler on a CPU when there is nothing for the CPU to do. The idle task can be hard-coded into the scheduler, or it can be implemented as a separate task with the lowest possible priority. An advantage of the latter approach is that programs monitoring the system status can see the idle task along with all other tasks; an example is Windows NT's System Idle Process.
Some programs are designed to appear to make use of CPU idle time, meaning that they run at a low priority (but slightly higher than idle priority) so as not to impact programs that run at normal priority. This allows non-crucial background programs to only run when it would not affect the performance of other applications.
# James G. Thompson (New York politician)

James G. Thompson (born January 15, 1829, in Sharon, Schoharie County, New York) was an American politician from New York.

# Rma script

The Rma script (Northern Qiang: Rrmea bapa) is an alphabet with some abugida-like features devised for the Qiang language, spoken in Sichuan Province in the southwest of China. It was finalized in 2017 by scholar Wei Jiuqiao.
The script fits the phonology of the standardized language of the Northern Qiang variety of Qugu, officially written with the Roman script using the Qiang Phonetic Alphabet Scheme. Whereas Northern Qiang varieties have length contrasts, Southern Qiang varieties have phonemic tone contrasts; thus a version with tonal diacritics has also been produced, and has been used for the Southern Qiang variety of Luobuzhai (Chinese: 萝卜寨; pinyin: Luóbozhài) in Wenchuan County. It has gained substantial recognition among the Qiang people, and various books have been published in it.
In 2022, a preliminary proposal was made to encode this system in the Universal Character Set of Unicode.

## Consonants

The ordering of the consonants proceeds from labial stops to velar stops and then to the affricates; in this regard, its ordering is similar to the Bopomofo system for Standard Chinese.
In contrast to true abugidas, the consonant glyphs do not have inherent vowels attached, and thus is closer to a true alphabet.
| b /p/ | p /pʰ/ | bb /b/ | m /m/ | f /f/ | w /w/ | wf /v/ |
| d /t/ | t /tʰ/ | dd /d/ | n /n/ | lh /ɬ/ | l /l/ | lr /lʴ/ |
| g /k/ | k /kʰ/ | gg /ɡ/ | ng /ŋ/ | h /h/ | hh /ɣ/ | — |
| j /tɕ/ | q /tɕʰ/ | jj /dʑ/ | x /ɕ/ | xx /ʑ/ | y /j/ | — |
| gv /q/ | kv /qʰ/ | v /χ/ | vh /ɦ/ | vv /ʁ/ | — | — |
| z /ts/ | c /tsʰ/ | zz /dz/ | s /s/ | ss /z/ | — | — |
| zh /tʂ/ | ch /tʂʰ/ | dh /dʐ/ | sh /ʂ/ | rr /ʐ/ | — | — |

## Vowels

The Rma script has abugida-like features in its vowels, with its use of vowel diacritics around the consonant glyphs, and a zero consonant character.
| a /a/ | ae /æ/ | ea /e/ | u /u/ | e /ə/ | nn /◌̃/ |
| i /i/ | ü /y/ | o /o/ | /ː/,/ʔ/ | r /ʴ/ | — |
Note the use of the same glyph for vowel length marking and the glottal stop, in Northern Qiang: agvei. It is also the vowel carrier glyph.

## Punctuation

The Rma script has its own punctuation, including a special ligature for the Qiang people. It was from this sign that the writing system was devised.

# Paul Neeckx

Paul Neeckx was a Belgian swimmer. He competed in the men's 200 metre breaststroke event at the 1920 Summer Olympics.
# Ernst Schüz

Ernst Paul Theodor Schüz (24 October 1901 – 8 August 1991) was a German ornithologist and a curator at the natural history museum in Stuttgart. He was known for his extensive work at the Rossiten bird observatory, particularly for his studies on white storks.

## Life and work

Schüz was born in Markgröningen where his namesake father was a pastor. His mother was Elise Weitbrecht. After schooling at the Charles Gymnasium in Stuttgart, he went on to study at the University of Tübingen. He went on to study at the University of Berlin under Erwin Stresemann, receiving a doctorate in 1927. His research was on powder down feathers. He worked at the natural history museums at Hanover and Dresden and worked at the Rossitten bird observatory from 1929 under Oskar Heinroth. From 1936 he headed the Rossitten observatory and organized coordinated ringing studies on white storks and grey herons. He also conducted experiments on migration, orientation, and physiology in starlings along with Werner Rüppell and Paul Putzig. In 1943 he was drafted into the war. After the war he established the Radolfzell ornithological observatory along with Nikolaus von Bodman. Schüz helped integrate the observatory into the Max Planck Society. in 1959. From 1959 he served as director of the State Museum of Natural History at Stuttgart. He was an honorary professor at the University of Stuttgart.
Schüz's early work was on migration and he published an atlas of bird migration in 1931 along with Hugo Weigold. In 1942 he was asked to evaluate a proposal (Storchbein Propaganda or "stork-leg propaganda") by Heinrich Himmler to use storks reared in Rossiten for German war propaganda. They were to carry propaganda to be delivered to the Boers in South Africa. Schüz pointed out that the recovery rate was less than 1% which meant that more than a 1000 storks would be needed to deliver about 10 leaflets which led the idea to be shelved. He later worked on demographics, physiology, and conservation. One of Schüz's important experimental studies was on white storks. Schüz's predecessor and founder of the Rossiten observatory, Thienemann, had found that birds that bred in eastern Prussia migrated southeast while those to the west migrated to the southwest. Schüz took young storks from the eastern part of this migratory divide and moved them to the western side and found that they took a southwesterly route and apparently followed the adults. He however conducted another experiment where the young were released only after all the adults had migrated and found that the eastern storks raised in the west chose an apparently innate southeasterly route.
He married Tabitha Brenner in 1926 who died in 1941 shortly after the birth of their third child. He married Hanna Steinheil in 1944.
# Moses Warren

Moses Warren (December 4, 1779 – February 6, 1845) was an American politician from New York.

# Prince Carl Gustav, Duke of Småland

Prince Carl Gustav, Duke of Småland (25 August 1782 – 23 March 1783) was a prince of Sweden, being the son of King Gustav III of Sweden and Queen Sophia Magdalena. He died in infancy.

## Early life

Born at Drottningholm, Gustav was the second son in the marriage of King Gustav III of Sweden and Queen Sophia Magdalena. He had one elder sibling, Gustav Adolph, who would become King of Sweden. The baby was described as strong, healthy and big; Carl Gustav's father was especially fond of him.

## Death

In March 1783 the young Prince suddenly took ill, probably from inappropriate food and died when he was little over a half year old. He was interred in Riddarholm Church in Stockholm.
His father took the death very hard and had never been seen so grief stricken, unable even to attend the little boy's funeral. After Carl Gustav's death Gustav III began new phases in his own life, travelling far away from Sweden, gradually increasing his power and starting war. Several writers have attributed the change in his personality and activity at least in part to his strong reaction at the death of his second son.
