# William W. Blackney

William Wallace Blackney (August 28, 1876 – March 14, 1963) was a politician from the U.S. state of Michigan. He served eight terms in the United States House of Representatives.

## Early life and education

Blackney was born in Clio, Michigan, and attended the public schools there. He went to Olivet College, Olivet, Michigan, and Ferris School (now Ferris State University) in Big Rapids. He moved to Flint, in 1904 and served as county clerk of Genesee County 1905–1912. He was graduated from the law department of the University of Michigan in 1912, was admitted to the bar the same year, and commenced practice in Flint.
He served as assistant prosecuting attorney of Genesee County 1913–1917, member of the Flint School Board 1924–1934, member of the Republican State central committee 1925–1930, and instructor in the General Motors Company technical night school for sixteen years.

# Amrit (1941 film)

Amrit is a 1941 Indian Black-and-white film directed by Master Vinayak and produced by Navyug Chitrapat. The film stars Dada Salvi, Baburao Pendharkar, Lalita Pawar, Master Vithal in the lead roles and Damuanaa Malvankar, Javdekar, Meenakshi, V. Jog in other key roles. The film was made in Marathi and Hindi languages simultaneously.

## Plot

In a coastal Konkan village, intricate dynamics of class disparity unfold, anchored by the archetypal Khandekar figure, Bappa, an idealistic yet unbending patriarch ensnared by his convictions. Bappa monopolizes the palm trees, the source of toddy production, staunchly advocating for fairness over leniency. The narrative intertwines with the lives of his urban son Vilas, daughter Lata, and her friend Sadanand, alongside the tumultuous saga of drunken shoemaker Krishna and his wife Seeta. Vilas, harboring desires for Seeta, arranges a new dwelling for the shoemaker's family, sparking familial tensions. Conflicts escalate between Vilas and Bappa, culminating when Vilas inadvertently causes the death of Seeta's daughter, converging multiple storylines. Exploiting his political sway, Bappa wrongfully implicates Seeta's blameless husband, prompting Seeta to retaliate by exploiting Vilas's desires, reducing him to a virtual servant. Ultimately, Bappa confronts his moral obligations, echoing a cautionary tale against the perils of alcoholism.

# NGC 1404

NGC 1404 is an elliptical galaxy in the Southern constellation Eridanus. It was discovered on November 28, 1837, by the astronomer John Herschel. Based on the tip of the red-giant branch distance indicator, it lies at a distance of approximately 60 million light-years from the Milky Way. It is one of the brightest members of the Fornax Cluster.

## Characteristics

As usual with most elliptical galaxies, NGC 1404 is rich in globular clusters, with a population of them that has been estimated to be around 725; however it has been proposed it could have lost most of its globular clusters due to gravitational interactions with NGC 1399, the brightest galaxy of the Fornax Cluster.
Studies using the X-ray telescope Chandra show how the ram-pressure stripping caused by the motion of NGC 1404 through Fornax' intracluster medium is stripping the galaxy of its hot gas, leaving behind a large trail.

## Supernovae

Two supernovae have been observed in NGC 1404:
* SN 2007on (type Ia, mag. 14.9) was discovered by the TAROT collaboration on 5 November 2007.
* SN 2011iv (type Ia, mag. 12.8) was discovered by Stuart Parker on 2 December 2011.

Roosevelt for President; and served as a Roosevelt presidential elector that fall.
He was first elected to the Senate in 1938, polling 12,032 votes to 10,348 for Socialist Frank Metcalfe (running on the Progressive ticket as part of an electoral fusion arrangement) and 9,175 for a Republican named O'Brien.
He was a delegate to the Democratic National Convention in 1940 and an alternate in 1948.
# Palmer Cup

The Palmer Cup is a 1200–1215 CE goblet from northern Syria or Jazira, and an example of early Islamic glass. It is sometimes described as "Ayyubid", since it corresponds to the time when the Ayyubids disputed control of areas of Northern Mesopotamia with the Zengids and Artuqids, but it belongs artistically to the Northern Mesopotamia region, somewhere between northern Syria and the Jazira. It is now in the British Museum, as part of the Waddesdon Bequest (Room 2A (Case 6b).
The goblet is made of clear glass, enamelled and gilt, mounted on a foot of silver gilt embossed with fleurs-de-lis. Near the edge, an inscription appears in gold on a blue ground: the line can be traced to the poet Kushajim (died around 961), and reads:
   "Repent! While the cup is in the hand of the beardless youth, and the sound of the second and third [strings of the lute] is loud!"
Below the inscription, a prince is seated between two attendants holding swords; beyond are three other attendants, including one holding a polo club. The figures are modelled in a thick white enamel, thinly gilt and having details in red and blue. The goblet has a flat foot-rim with a turn up inside. It is held in the mount by leaves; the stem is embossed with pairs of birds sitting on branches; ribbed crystal knop; the base is embossed with fleurs-de-lis in lozenge diaper. The goblet has a height of 10.6 in (270 mm).
The original object was a glass beaker, transformed into a goblet with an elongated stem in France. The glass is Islamic work, perhaps made at Mosul, Damascus, or in Egypt, in the early thirteenth century. The decorated glass beaker itself can be securely attributed to the Jazira area of northern Iraq and northern Syria, probably to Raqqa or Aleppo, where major glass workshops operated, and can be most likely dated to the period between 1200 and 1225.
The mount is a silver-gilt chalice in filigree with a rock-crystal bead in the middle of the stem, and is most likely made in Paris, France, in the late 1250s or early 1260s. This cup was long in the possession of the Palmer family, of Ladbroke in Warwickshire.
The ruler and attendants are similar to those found in the manuscript Kitab al-Dariyaq from the Mosul or North Jazira area, and wear the typical sharbush type of headgear. Their robes, headgear, attitudes are also similar to metalwork objects datable to the early 13th century with a provenance from Mosul or the Northern Jazira area.

# Hyolithida

The Hyolithida are lophophorates, one of the two orders of hyolithid, the other being the Orthothecida. Most of our knowledge of the hyolithids comes from studies on the Hyolithida. Both orders had an operculum that was not hinged to the conch. However, the Hyolithida are distinct from the Orthothecida in having additional paired, curved, tusk-like appendages. The Hyolithida were probably bottom feeders living in shallow water, and had tentacules.
