# Manchester Pals

The Manchester Pals were pals battalions of the British Army raised in 1914 during the Great War, formed as part of Lord Kitchener's New Armies. They were formed into eight battalions of the Manchester Regiment.
* 1st Manchester Pals became 16th (Service) Battalion, Manchester Regiment (1st City)
* 2nd Manchester Pals became 17th (Service) Battalion, Manchester Regiment (2nd City)
* 3rd Manchester Pals (Clerks' and Warehousemen's Battalion) became 18th (Service) Battalion, Manchester Regiment (3rd City)
* 4th Manchester Pals became 19th (Service) Battalion, Manchester Regiment (4th City)
* 5th Manchester Pals became 20th (Service) Battalion, Manchester Regiment (5th City)
* 6th Manchester Pals became 21st (Service) Battalion, Manchester Regiment (6th City)
* 7th Manchester Pals became 22nd (Service) Battalion, Manchester Regiment (7th City)
* 8th Manchester Pals became 23rd (Service) Battalion, Manchester Regiment (8th City)
The 16th–19th (Service) Bns constituted 90th Brigade in 30th Division and the 20th–22nd Bns, together with the 24th (Service Battalion, Manchester Regiment (Oldham Pioneers), formed 91st Brigade in the same division. The 23rd (Service) Bn was a Bantam battalion in 104th Brigade of 35th Division.
In about September 1915 three local reserve battalions were formed from the depot companies of the eight battalions, with the role of training replacements for the service battalions; they joined 16th Brigade of the Training Reserve on 1 September 1916:
* 25th (Reserve) Battalion, Manchester Regiment, (from 16th, 17th, 18th Bn depot companies) became 69th Training Reserve Battalion
* 26th (Reserve) Battalion, Manchester Regiment, (from 19th, 20th, 21st Bn depot companies) became 70th Training Reserve Battalion
* 27th (Reserve) Battalion, Manchester Regiment, (from 22nd, 23rd and 24th (Oldham Pioneers) Bn depot companies) became 71st Training Reserve Battalion
Almost 10,000 men enlisted in the Manchester Pals battalions, of whom 4,776 were killed. Overall, the Manchester Regiment lost about 13,000 men. In 1993, a memorial was unveiled in Heaton Park, where the 16th, 17th, 18th, and 19th battalions were trained between September 1914 and April 1915.
# Barbara McConnell

Barbara Wright McConnell (October 5, 1936 – October 21, 2016) was an American Democratic Party politician from New Jersey, who served in the New Jersey General Assembly from 1978 to 1982 and in the cabinet of former Governor James Florio.

## Biography

McConnell was born Barbara Wright, daughter of Carson and Mildred Wright, in Nashville, Tennessee. She grew up in Livingston, Tennessee, graduating from Livingston Academy. In 1955, she was selected Miss Putnam County and competed in the Miss Tennessee pageant. She earned a B.S. degree in 1957 from Tennessee Polytechnic Institute (now Tennessee Technological University). After graduating from college, she married Terry McConnell, who worked for the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
After moving with her husband to Washington, D.C., McConnell worked for U.S. Rep. Joe L. Evins, first as a secretary and then as an administrative assistant. When her husband accepted an offer to work with a bank in New Jersey, they moved to Delaware Township outside Flemington, New Jersey. McConnell became active in the local Democratic Party organization, and in 1977 she was elected to the New Jersey General Assembly in a district usually dominated by Republicans. While serving in the Assembly, McConnell worked on legislation to combat discrimination against women by lending institutions, as well as legislation helping to protect women against domestic violence. She served as president of the board of the Hunterdon County volunteer organization Women's Crisis Services, now known as SAFE in Hunterdon.
In 1981, McConnell gave up her seat in the Assembly to run in the Democratic primary for Governor of New Jersey. In a crowded race, she finished with only 3% of the vote, well behind the front-runner James Florio. Florio lost in the general election to Thomas Kean but later served a term as governor from 1990 to 1994. After her defeat in the gubernatorial race, McConnell served as president of the New Jersey Food Council, a lobbying group representing the food industry. She returned to public service ten years later in the Florio administration, when she was appointed as New Jersey Commissioner of Commerce and Economic Development. She was the first woman to serve in this position.
Following the end of Governor Florio's term of office in January 1994, McConnell again worked as a lobbyist, establishing the McConnell Group to represent the interests of several large companies and organizations, including Coca-Cola Bottling Co. She continued to reside in Delaware Township.
She died following hip surgery on October 21, 2016, in Raritan Township, New Jersey at age 80.

# Process decision program chart

Process Decision Program Chart (PDPC) is a technique designed to help prepare contingency plans. The emphasis of the PDPC is to identify the consequential impact of failure on activity plans, and create appropriate contingency plans to limit risks. Process diagrams and planning tree diagrams are extended by a couple of levels when the PDPC is applied to the bottom level tasks on those diagrams.

## Methodology

From the bottom level of some activity box, the PDPC adds levels for:
* identifying what can go wrong (failure mode or risks)
* consequences of that failure (effect or consequence)
* possible countermeasures (risk mitigation action plan)

## Similar techniques

* The PDPC is similar to the failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) in that both identify risks, consequences of failure, and contingency actions. The FMEA adds prioritized risk levels through rating relative risk for each potential failure point.
* Evaporating Cloud is a visually similar technique that is used for Conflict Management and Problem Solving. It follows the flow of data, either horizontally or vertically, breaking Ideas into increments of change to be easy to follow.
# The Triplets (Washington)

The Triplets is a 7,240+ ft (2,210+ m) summit located in Skagit County of Washington state. This breccia triple pinnacle is part of the North Cascades. The Triplets is situated above Cascade Pass on the shared border of North Cascades National Park and Glacier Peak Wilderness. The nearest higher neighbor is Cascade Peak, 0.35 miles (0.56 km) to the west-northwest. Surface runoff from the mountain drains into the Cascade River.

## Climate

The Triplets is located in the marine west coast climate zone of western North America. Most weather fronts coming off the Pacific Ocean travel northeast toward the Cascade Mountains. As fronts approach the North Cascades, they are forced upward by the peaks of the Cascade Range (orographic lift), causing them to drop their moisture in the form of rain or snow onto the Cascades. As a result, the west side of the North Cascades experiences high precipitation, especially during the winter months in the form of snowfall. Because of maritime influence, snow tends to be wet and heavy, resulting in high avalanche danger. During winter months, weather is usually cloudy, but, due to high pressure systems over the Pacific Ocean that intensify during summer months, there is often little or no cloud cover during the summer.

## Geology

The North Cascades features some of the most rugged topography in the Cascade Range with craggy peaks and ridges, and deep glacial valleys. Geological events occurring many years ago created the diverse topography and drastic elevation changes over the Cascade Range leading to the various climate differences. These climate differences lead to vegetation variety defining the ecoregions in this area.
The history of the formation of the Cascade Mountains dates back millions of years ago to the late Eocene Epoch. With the North American Plate overriding the Pacific Plate, episodes of volcanic igneous activity persisted. In addition, small fragments of the oceanic and continental lithosphere called terranes created the North Cascades about 50 million years ago.
During the Pleistocene period dating back over two million years ago, glaciation advancing and retreating repeatedly scoured the landscape leaving deposits of rock debris. The U-shaped cross section of the river valleys is a result of recent glaciation. Uplift and faulting in combination with glaciation have been the dominant processes which have created the tall peaks and deep valleys of the North Cascades area.

# Sydney Downey

Sydney Downey was a British-Kenyan professional white hunter and safari pioneer. Always known as Syd, he learned the trade of guiding safari hunts from an older generation of professional hunters, including his early mentor Philip Percival. He teamed up with Donald Ker to create Ker and Downey Safaris Ltd., a company that was at the forefront of the move away from hunting and towards photographic safaris.

## Early life

Downey was born to a British expatriate family ranching cattle in Argentina. He spent most of his early childhood in Argentina, leaving the country for England to attend secondary school. Upon graduating school he sailed to Kenya, where he found a job working on a coffee plantation outside of Nairobi.

## Hunting life

Downey became a professional hunter in 1933 when he joined Leslie Tarlton’s Safariland. In the early days with the company, Downey worked with Philip Percival on several safaris as his "second hunter." Percival quickly became Donwey's mentor. Downey soon met Ronald Ker, another Kenyan hunter with whom he developed a rivalry. During the 1930s Ker and Downey were known for having opened up much of the Masai Mara to hunting. However, both hunters took a break from their trade when World War II broke out in 1939, joining the British effort in East Africa against the Italians.

## Ker and Downey Safaris

As the war in Africa was winding down the British successfully ousted the Italians from Ethiopia, taking back the city of Addis Ababa. It was at this time that Ker and Downey met again, during an "impromptu meeting of the East African Professional Hunters’ Association," in an Addis Ababa bar. During their meeting Ker pitched Downey on the idea of going into business together as soon as the war ended. When the war ended the pair kept their promises and founded Ker and Downey Safaris. Their first paying safari was The Macomber Affair, starring Gregory Peck and Joan Bennett. They hired some of the most well known East African hunters including Harry Selby. In fact the company eventually became Ker, Downey and Selby Safaris, as Selby expanded the operation down in Botswana. However the partnership with Selby did not last in the end. Ker and Downey had both been moving away from hunting safaris and towards photographic trips, since neither of them particularly enjoyed killing animals, instead preferring the chase. Downey eventually became just as well known for his conservationism as his hunting.
# Micronecta scholtzi

Micronecta scholtzi, the lesser water boatman, is a species of pygmy water boatman in the family Micronectidae. It was first described by Franz Xaver Fieber in 1860. They are some 2 mm long and are common in freshwater ponds and lakes across Europe, preferring stagnant to moderately moving water. In Central Europe, the genus Micronecta is represented by five species, as follows:
* Micronecta (Dichaetonecta) pusilla (Géza Horváth, 1895)
* Micronecta (Dichaetonecta) scholtzi (Fieber, 1860)
* Micronecta (Micronecta) griseola Géza Horváth, 1899
* Micronecta (Micronecta) minutissima (Linnaeus, 1758)
* Micronecta (Micronecta) poweri (Douglas & Scott, 1869)
M. scholtzi is easily differentiated from other species in this genus by the twisted left paramere of the male genitalia, (see traumatic insemination) the short pronotum and a distinctive dark pattern on the head. Little is known of its habits and habitat, but it is thought to flourish in the shallows of ponds or lake shores.
The male of this species produces its underwater courtship song by stridulating a ridge on its penis across corrugations on its abdomen. The area involved measures only 50 micrometres across, or about the thickness of a human hair. A team of biologists and sound engineers from France and Scotland have recorded M. scholtzi producing sound up to 99.2 decibels, a volume comparable to a passing freight train. The noise was so unexpectedly loud that the engineers checked the calibration of their instruments. It is classified by Guinness World Records as the loudest penis. Almost all volume is lost when sound moves from water to air, but even so remains audible to humans walking along the pond shore. This species is considered the loudest of all animals for its size. Despite knowing the mechanism of its sound production, researchers are still mystified by the volume produced and feel that once the process is understood, it could open up a useful avenue in ultrasonics.
Not many insects are known to generate sound with reproductive organs, but there is another, the pyralid moth, Syntonarcha iriastis, which emits ultrasonic squeaks.
# Manohara River

Manahara River (Nepali: मनोहरा खोला) is a tributory river of Bagmati river originating in northeast part of the Kathmandu Valley and merging with the Hanumante River, which finally joins the Bagamati river at Shankahmul. The flooding of river affected the residents in multiple occcassions.
The river stretches 28 km from northeast to southwest and covers 83 sq. km. It is narrow and straight upstream, becoming wider and meandering downstream. The northern and eastern catchments, made up of gneiss, granite, and other hard rocks, have fine drainage, high relief, and frequent drainage. In contrast, the western catchment, composed of soft fluvio-lacustrine deposits, has coarser drainage, lower relief, and less frequent drainage.
# Zanklewo

Zanklewo is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Wizna, within Łomża County, Podlaskie Voivodeship, in north-eastern Poland. It lies approximately 6 kilometres (4 mi) north of Wizna, 24 km (15 mi) north-east of Łomża, and 54 km (34 mi) west of the regional capital Białystok.
# Allen W. Thurman

Allen William Thurman (May 1847 – November 15, 1922) was an American politician and baseball executive from Ohio. He ran for the Democratic nomination for Governor of Ohio in 1889 with eugenicist ideas.

## Early life

Allen William Thurman was born in May 1847 in Chillicothe, Ohio, to Mary A. (née Dun) and Allen G. Thurman. His father was a U.S. senator. At a young age, he worked as a secretary to his father.

## Career

In 1875, Thurman was a trustee of Deer Creek Township, Madison County, Ohio. In 1889, he sought the Democratic nomination for Governor of Ohio. As a eugenicist he argued that "unless Ohio takes prompt measures to stop the production of imbeciles, within ten years it will be bankrupted by the cost of maintaining this part of its population."
He was president of the American Association in 1890 and 1891 where he was known as "The White Winged Angel of Peace", so called because he helped negotiate the end of the labor strife that had resulted in the formation of the Players' League and the weakening of the finances of organized baseball. He was replaced by Louis Kramer.
In 1896, Thurman championed the free silver movement in Ohio. Under Governor George K. Nash, he was a member of the state canal commission. Under Governor Judson Harmon, he was one of the original members of the Ohio Board of Administration. He served as president of the body in 1912.
Thurman wrote in journals and periodicals about the free silver movement and economic ideas. He purchased 1,000 acres (400 ha) (including 500 acres (200 ha) of timber) of land in Madison County, Ohio, after his mother's death. In Madison County, he owned farmland, and a stable that he used to train racehorses.

## Personal life

In 1872, Thurman had his left hand amputated following an accident with a corn husker.
Thurman married Harriet Webb of Baltimore. They had four sons and two daughters, A. Lee, Allen G., Tod Deford, Sterling, Katherine De Ford and Mrs. Virginia Cole. His daughter Katherine married Frederick Nicholas Sinks, attorney and private secretary to Governor George K. Nash.
Thurman died following a fall on November 15, 1922, aged 74, at the home of his daughter at Sunbury Pike near Linden, Ohio. He was buried at Green Lawn Cemetery.

# Africofusus ocelliferus

Africofusus ocelliferus, common name the long-siphoned whelk, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Fasciolariidae, the spindle snails, the tulip snails and their allies.

## Spelling

The specific name was originally spelled "ocelliferus"; although this is not a correct latinization it is not liable to a justified emendation (cf. ICZN art. 32.5.1. "Incorrect transliteration or latinization ... are not to be considered inadvertent errors"). The spelling ocellifer is therefore an unjustified emendation, which may be traced to Kaicher, 1976 (card n$^o$ 1857)

## Description

The length of the shell attains 160 mm.
The shell varies from narrowly to broadly spindle-shaped, with the spire comprising half to three-quarters of the total aperture length. The siphonal canal is long and slender, sometimes accounting for up to one-third of the total shell length, and is often slightly curved. The sculpture consists of coarse, flattened spiral ridges, though the prominence of these ridges varies widely between specimens. Some individuals display a distinct shoulder adorned with rounded nodules. A deep false umbilicus is often present beside the siphonal base in mature specimens. The inner lip lacks columellar pleats, and the interior of the outer lip is smooth.
The shell is whitish, with spiral ridges often spotted or mottled with brown. When present, the shoulder typically features darker brown spots, especially on the nodules. The periostracum is a velvety, horn-brown layer that often flakes off. The animal is orange-red.

## Distribution

This marine species is endemic to South Africa and occurs off Namaqualand, West coast to KwaZulu-Natal South coast; infratidal to 150 m, perhaps to 300 m.
