# Paul B. Carpenter

Paul Bruce Carpenter (February 24, 1928 – January 24, 2002) was an American psychologist and politician.

## Early life

Born in Sioux City, Iowa, Carpenter attended the University of Iowa and received a doctorate degree in experimental psychology from Florida State University. He moved to Orange County, California in 1960 and worked as a psychologist.

Despite being convicted of corruption charges in 1990, he won re-election to the board but was barred from serving because of the conviction.
Carpenter chaired his Senate caucus election fund-raising work from 1980 to 1985, which led to accusations of corruption.

# Fan Changsheng

Fan Changsheng (范長生 Fàn Chángshēng) (died 318) was a Taoist priest and leader who was instrumental in the establishment of the Cheng-Han state during the Sixteen Kingdoms era in China. He led a Taoist community of over one thousand families on Mount Qingcheng, Sichuan. During a critical famine, Fan Changsheng provided Li Xiong's army with food from his community's bounty. With Fan's help, Li Xiong achieved victory over Luo Shang's army during Li Xiong's siege of Chengdu.
After Li Xiong's victory, he offered Fan the throne. Fan declined, claiming that the year 304 would be an auspicious date (being a jiazi year) for someone from the Li family to take the throne. Fan Changsheng then served as the Chancellor of Cheng-Han under Li Xiong. Fan later helped to persuade Li Xiong to take the title of emperor. After Fan's death, his son Fan Ben succeeded him as the Chancellor of Cheng-Han.
Fan was the author of the lost work, Shucai (蜀才), a ten volume commentary on the I Ching. He was later considered to be one of the Eight Immortals from Sichuan.

Xerrox Vol.1 is the third studio album by German electronic artist Alva Noto. It was released on March 27, 2007 via Raster-Noton label. This is his first album in the five-piece Xerrox series, followed by Xerrox Vol.2 (2009), Xerrox Vol.3 (2015), Xerrox Vol.4 (2020), and Xerrox Vol.5 (2024).

## Reception

Paul Lloyd of Igloo Magazine stated "Nicolai proves his theory about the replication of source material wonderfully with Xerrox Vol.1 and he does so by creating thematically similar tracks that, with often the smallest and most subtle of changes, replicate each other in many ways yet are fundamentally different in others. Housed in a beautifully designed multi-fold folder and protected with its own plastic sleeve, Xerrox Vol.1 is packaged with the care and attention Raster-Noton are known for and is carried through to the music they release".
Susanna Bolle of Dusted commented "It's a beguiling pretty record, which is not something you'd necessarily expect from a conceptual project so tightly focused on the process of digital reproduction. Its unerring prettiness is also its greatest weakness. It's an immensely pleasurable disc, but the ideas underpinning Xerrox promise more than gauzed, seductive beauty. Nicolai is more than capable of fusing high concept with aesthetic enjoyment -- just look at his previous Transall. Ultimately, Xerrox, Vol. 1 falls somewhat short of the mark it sets for itself".

# Science Fiction South Africa

For the South Australian Doctor Who Fan Club, Inc/SFSA, see Doctor Who in Australia.
Science Fiction and Fantasy South Africa (SFFSA) is the oldest science fiction society in South Africa. It was founded in 1969. The society publishes its own fanzine, called Probe, on a quarterly basis. It sponsors an annual short story writing competition, called the "Nova Short Story Competition"; and holds small annual science fiction conventions. Due to the geographical isolation of South Africa, much of SFSA's contact with the rest of science fiction fandom is not in person, but through the mails and electronically, although some SFSA members have attended conventions in other countries
# B. T. Collins

Brien Thomas "B. T." Collins (October 17, 1940 – March 19, 1993) was an American politician from California and a member of the Republican party.

## Early years

Born in New York City, Collins served as a Green Beret Captain during the Vietnam War and lost his right arm and right leg to a grenade attack in 1967. Upon returning to the United States, Collins enrolled at Santa Clara University, earning a B.A. in 1970 and a J.D. in 1973.

## Executive branch

In 1979, Collins was appointed by Democratic Governor Jerry Brown as Director of the California Conservation Corps. During his California Conservation Corps service, Collins gained notoriety for drinking a beaker of malathion to demonstrate his belief that it was safe.
Although a Democrat, Brown nevertheless appointed the conservative Republican Collins to replace Gray Davis as his chief of staff, a position Collins held from 1981 until Brown left office in 1983.
Collins served as chief deputy to Republican California State Treasurer Tom Hayes from 1989 until 1991, when Hayes left office and Republican Governor Pete Wilson appointed Collins as director of the California Youth Authority.

## State Assembly

After Sacramento-area Republican Tim Leslie won a 1991 special election to the California State Senate to replace John Doolittle, who had been elected to Congress, Wilson encouraged Collins to run for Leslie's vacant seat in the State Assembly. Collins won a special election that September for the Sacramento-area 5th District against fellow Republican Barbara Alby, and narrowly beat her again in the 1992 GOP primary.

## Death

Collins died of a sudden heart attack March 19, 1993 in Sacramento while serving his second term in the State Assembly. Alby won the special election to replace him.
Several sites in Sacramento have been named in his honor, including the BT Collins Juvenile Justice Center in Sacramento. When the Sacramento Army Depot was redesignated as an Army Reserve Center in the mid-1990s, it was renamed the B.T. Collins Army Reserve Center.
There is also a park in the City of Folsom named the B.T. Collins City Park located at 828 Willow Creek Drive, Folsom, California. The men's restroom in the Santa Clara University School of Law library was named the "B.T. Collins Memorial Latrine" in his honor; it features a plaque over the urinal with a quote from Collins: "If it ain't in Gilbert's, it ain't the Law."

# Marilyn Ryan (California politician)

Marilyn G. Ryan (December 10, 1932 – June 22, 2008) was an American civic leader and politician from California and a member of the Republican party.

## Civic Leadership

Ryan was a co-founder of Save Our Coastlines, which battled Los Angeles County over development on the Rancho Palos Verdes peninsula. She was instrumental in the incorporation of Rancho Palos Verdes as a city and served as its first mayor.

## State Assembly

In 1976 she was elected to the coastal 51st district in California State Assembly being vacated by Republican Robert G. Beverly who was running for state senate. She had little trouble winning reelection in 1978 and 1980 in the heavily Republican district.
While in office, she founded the California Elected Women's Association and worked to secure state funding to preserve Torrance's Madrona Marsh.
In 1981 a Democratic-led reapportionment dismantled GOP assemblyman Gerald Felando's neighboring San Pedro-Torrance based 52nd district, and parts of it (including his home) were drawn into Ryan's 51st district, a coastal area based in the Palos Verdes Peninsula and surrounding beach cities. A moderate Republican, Ryan represented 85% of the redrawn district, and the more conservative Felando chose to challenge her in the primary. She actually was well ahead for most of the race, but within the last few weeks, Felando's campaign began to attack her past opposition to 1978's anti-tax Proposition 13, which was overwhelmingly popular in this district with many wealthy homeowners. The attacks proved effective, and Felando upset Ryan by just over 2 percentage points.
After her time in the legislature came to an end, she was appointed as director of the California Arts Council by GOP Governor George Deukmejian. She served what turned out to be a tumultuous term from 1983 to 1985.

## Death

Ryan died of congestive heart failure at the age of 75 at her home in Laguna Woods, California.
