# William P. Bolton

William P. Bolton (July 2, 1885 – November 22, 1964) was a one-term U.S. Congressman who represented the second district of Maryland from 1949 to 1951 until defeated by Republican General James Devereux.
Born near Whiteford, Maryland, Bolton attended the public schools and St. Francis Parochial School in Baltimore County, Maryland. He graduated from the University of Baltimore Law School in 1909, and became a lawyer in private practice. He served as trial magistrate in Towson, Maryland, from 1941 to 1946.
Bolton served in the Maryland State Senate from 1946 to 1948. He was elected as a Democrat to the Eighty-first Congress, serving from January 3, 1949, to January 3, 1951. He was an unsuccessful candidate for reelection to the Eighty-second Congress in 1950 and again in 1954.
During his short time in the Maryland Senate he proposed a far reaching amendment to the Maryland Constitution that was approved by the city of Baltimore voters to limit the city's ability to annex portions of Baltimore County, something that was previously a right of the city. This amendment, Question 5, was approved on November 2, 1948, by a majority of the city voters: 139,974 to 103,687.
After Congress, Bolton served as director of Baltimore County Civil Defense in 1951, and died in Baltimore in 1964. He is interred in Mount Maria Cemetery of Towson.
# A. Reyrolle & Company

A. Reyrolle & Company was a British engineering firm based in Hebburn, Tyne and Wear in the North East of England. For many years the company was one of the largest employers on Tyneside.

## History

The company was founded by Alphonse Constant Reyrolle [de], a French electrical engineer and entrepreneur, in 1886 at Fitzroy Square in London to produce scientific instruments. He moved the business to Hebburn on Tyneside in 1901. At its peak it manufactured switchgear for power stations worldwide and employed 12,000 people.
The company had its own football team, which evolved into Hebburn Town F.C.
The company merged with C. A. Parsons and Company to form Reyrolle Parsons in 1968. In 1977 Reyrolle Parsons merged with Clarke Chapman to form Northern Engineering Industries plc, which was acquired by Rolls-Royce plc in 1989.
The business was acquired in 1998 by VA Technologie AG, which was acquired by the industrial conglomerate Siemens in 2005, reuniting the company with Parsons under the new owners. Siemens supported the Reyrolle installed base on a global basis, with Operations and Protection based at the remaining section of the original Reyrolle Works in Hebburn, although this constitutes only around 10 percent of the original site. The Major Projects division is based at a modern office building on the nearby Monkton Business Park.
The New Zealand division, Reyrolle Pacific, was sold by Siemens AG/VA Tech to a private individual in New Zealand. This included the switchgear factory in Petone, with a staff of about 100. Reyrolle Pacific Switchgear became RPS Switchgear and manufactures retrofit breakers for the original LMT switchgear, and vacuum breakers and panels for 11 kV substations.
# Hilda Montalba

Hilda Montalba (3 December 1845 – 24 November 1919) was a British painter and sculptor.

## Early life

Hilda Montalba was born in London on 3 December 1845, one of four daughters of the Swedish-born artist Anthony Rubens Montalba and Emeline (née Davies). The 1871 British census shows Anthony Montalba living at 19 Arundel Gardens, Notting Hill, London, with four daughters, all artists.

## Career

Hilda and her three sisters all attained high repute as artists. The Montalba sisters were regular contributors to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition during the 1870s. Like her sisters, Hilda painted many landscape subjects, including scenes of Venice. Like Clara she painted fishing boats, and also painted close-up studies of Venetian people. One notable example of her work is a painting now in the Graves Art Gallery in Sheffield, Boy Unloading a Venetian Market Boat.
Between 1883 and 1890 she exhibited a number of works at the Grosvenor Gallery in Bond St, initially sculpture, later paintings of Venice, such as Venetian Fog, exhibited in 1890. She exhibited her work at the Woman's Building at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, Illinois.
Three of her oil paintings are in UK public collections, namely Sheffield Museums and the National Trust.
# Postsynaptic density

The postsynaptic density (PSD) is a protein dense specialization attached to the postsynaptic membrane. PSDs were originally identified by electron microscopy as an electron-dense region at the membrane of a postsynaptic neuron. The PSD is in close apposition to the presynaptic active zone and ensures that receptors are in close proximity to presynaptic neurotransmitter release sites. PSDs vary in size and composition among brain regions, and have been studied in great detail at glutamatergic synapses. Hundreds of proteins have been identified in the postsynaptic density, including glutamate receptors, scaffold proteins, and many signaling molecules.

## Structure

The structure and composition of the PSD have been the focus of numerous molecular studies of synaptic plasticity, a cellular model of learning and memory. PSDs are sized on the order of 250 to 500 nanometres in diameter and 25 to 50 nanometres in thickness, depending on the activity state of the synapse. During synaptic plasticity, the total size of the PSD is increasing along with an increase in synaptic size and strength after inducing long-term potentiation at single synapses.

### Composition

Many proteins in the PSD are involved in the regulation of synaptic function. These include
* postsynaptic density-95 (PSD95)
* neuroligin (a cellular adhesion molecule)
* NMDA receptors, AMPA receptors
* calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II
* actin
As protein detection technologies have increased in sensitivity, such as with improvements in mass spectrometry techniques, more numerous proteins have been attributed to the PSD. Current estimates are greater than several hundred proteins are found at PSDs among brain regions and during different states of development and synaptic activity. PSDs also contain cell adhesion molecules and a diverse set of other signaling proteins. Many of the PSD proteins contain PDZ domains.

## Function

The PSD has been proposed to concentrate and organize neurotransmitter receptors in the synaptic cleft. The PSD also serves as a signaling apparatus. For instance kinases and phosphatases in the PSD are activated and released from the PSD to change the activity of proteins located in the spine or are transported to the nucleus to affect protein synthesis. Some of the features of the PSD are similar to the neuromuscular junction and other cellular junctions, as the PSD has been modeled as a specialized cellular junction that allows for rapid, asymmetrical signaling.

# Lupinus diffusus

Lupinus diffusus, commonly known as Oak Ridge lupine, spreading lupine, or sky-blue lupine, is a species of lupine native to the southeastern United States, from North Carolina south to Florida and west to Mississippi. It is restricted to very dry, sandy soils, often in open pine or oak woodlands.
It is a perennial herbaceous plant growing to 30–50 centimetres (12–20 in) tall. The leaves are palmately compound with 3-5 leaflets 6–12 centimetres (2.4–4.7 in) long and 3–5 centimetres (1.2–2.0 in) broad, gray-green to silvery green, covered with fine white hairs. The flowers are pale blue or violet, produced in a dense spike 15–30 centimetres (5.9–11.8 in) long.

## Cultivation

It is grown as an ornamental plant in gardens for its flowers and silvery leaves, produced in early spring.

# Konjic woodcarving

Konjic woodcarving (Bosnian: Konjičko drvorezbarstvo / Коњичко дрворезбарство) is a specific technique of woodcarving practised in Konjic Municipality in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
In 2017 it is included on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

## History

Konjic woodcarving is an artistic craft with a long tradition in the Konjic municipality. The woodcarvings – which include furniture, sophisticated interiors and small decorative objects – stand out for their recognizable hand-carved motifs and overall visual identity. The woodcarving is a constitutive part of the local community’s culture, a measure of the beauty and amenity of home interiors, and a tradition that forges a sense of community and belonging.
# Tom Poulton

Thomas Leycester Poulton (1897–1963) was a British magazine and medical illustrator who provided artwork for a range of publications including the British Journal of Surgery and The Radio Times. After his death it was discovered that he had also secretly produced hundreds of sketches and finished drawings of men and women engaged in a wide range of uninhibited sexual activity. In the 1990s and 2000s many of these were collected and made available to the public by publishing houses specialising in erotic art.

## Early life

Poulton was born in Wimbledon on 3 February 1897. His father, Thomas Hill Mortimer Poulton (a civil servant), died in 1899 when Tom was 2. Tom was educated at Monkton Combe School (Junior School and Senior School), outside Bath in Somerset. In 1914 he won a scholarship to Slade School of Fine Art in Bloomsbury, Central London where he was taught by renowned artist and teacher Henry Tonks. At the Slade he met student Edith Kibblewhite whom he married in 1923 and with whom he had children (Alethea in 1924, Celia in 1927). Edith later became known as the acclaimed lutenist Diana Poulton.

## Career

Poulton was commissioned to produce artwork for many magazines and books including, for Nonesuch Press, new versions of A Plurality of Worlds by Fontenelle and Isaac Walton's The Compleat Angler. He worked almost entirely with a soft pencil but occasionally used pen and ink.
The 1939 Register of England & Wales shows Poulton and his wife Edith living in Heyshott in Surrey. He describes himself as a 'black and white artist and art teacher' and also gives his First World War service as a Lieutenant in the special reserve of the Royal Artillery (demobbed in 1920).
For a time he was employed as a cartographer for the Ministry of Defence.

## Personal life and erotica

Whilst stationed in Khajuraho, India, Poulton came into contact with the Kama Sutra, which prompted a fascination with erotic art. [reference required] During his lifetime he produced many erotic drawings, usually on commission from various patrons, notably playboy yachtsman Beecher Moore, who sold a large collection of Poulton's work in the early 1990s.[reference required] His erotica is very much of its time; the clothing is very clearly from the 1940s and 50s and the pictures are characterised by an exuberance and joie de vivre on the part of the participants which arguably sets him apart from many other artists in the genre.
Throughout his life he kept all of his erotic work secret for fear that it would be seized and he would be arrested by the police.[reference required]
He lived in Soho, London, for many years and was a member of the Double Crown Club. In later life he lived at 13 Handel Mansions in Holborn, Camden.[reference required]

Leon G. Lebel (April 10, 1912 – November 24, 1975) was an American politician from Maine. Lebel, a Democrat, served in the Maine House of Representatives from 1959 to 1972. He was a resident of Van Buren, Maine.
# Blanche Edwards-Pilliet

Blanche Edwards-Pilliet (1858–1941) was a French physician, medical teacher, and leading social reformer for women. She, along with Augusta Déjerine-Klumpke, was one of the first women to intern at a hospital in Paris.

## Early life

Edwards-Pilliet was home-schooled by her well-educated British father, Doctor George Hugh Edwards. She grew up speaking both French and English and learning mathematics, science, and the classics. After taking the baccalauréat-ès-lettres in 1877 and the baccalauréat-ès-sciences in 1878, she was able to enroll in the faculty of medicine in Paris at the age of 19.

## Career and later life

In 1885, when Edwards-Pilliet applied to be a hospital intern, over 90 doctors and interns signed a petition against it because she was a woman. However, the Paris municipal council allowed her case to be heard. On 31 July French lawyer Eugène Poubelle signed her case, allowing her to work in Parisian hospitals on the condition that she did not use their intern title to enter the final exams to be a doctor. She did.
Edwards-Pilliet's specialty was surgery. Despite fierce competition, especially since she was a woman, her prize-winning dissertation helped her create her first consulting room in 1889, where she worked for the next 50 years. In 1892, she married, and she would go on to have three children. She also taught school medicine, despite receiving low pay. In fact, she was the only woman of her time offered a medical teaching post by the Assistance Publique (Public Hospital System).
During 40 years she has been a professor at the School for the Training of Male and Female Nurses in the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital and Bicêtre Hospital.
She died in 1941 at the age of 82.

## Social Advocacy

An outspoken feminist, Edwards-Pilliet spent much of her time advocating for social reform, principally for women and children. Examples of her In 1901, Edwards-Pilliet founded The Ligue des Mères de Famille, one of the first Nongovernmental Organizations (NGOs) from which many of France's social organizations later developed. She was also a member of the Parti radical, which advocated for women's suffrage, and had dined on Christmas Day 1912 at the Paris Restaurant Mollard (designed by Édouard Niermans), with 'exiled' British suffragette leader Christabel Pankhurst, and fellow guests Jessie Murray Clark, Dorothy Hapgood and Irene Dallas and sister Hilda; according to The Suffragette newspaper, the evening ended with the singing of protest song "The March of the Women". In 1930, she was elected vice president of one of the Parti radical Paris sections.
She also became Chevalier de la Légion d'honneur (National Order of the Legion of Honour) in 1924.
