# Sinocorophium heteroceratum

Sinocorophium heteroceratum is a species of amphipod crustacean. It naturally occurs in Southeast Asia, but was introduced to San Francisco Bay, probably carried in the ballast water of cargo ships.
# Grev Laurvig

Grev Laurvig was an East Indiaman of the Danish East India Company. In 1732, she was sold to the Danish Asiatic Company.

## Career
### Origins

The origins of the ship remain unknown. During the Great Northern War, in 1715, under the command of Caspar von Wessel, she was used as a privateering vessel. In the same year, she grounded at Læsø. She had a complement of 58 men and an armament of 18 guns.

### DOC service, C. 1720–1729

She was later acquired by the Danish East India Company (dOC). She completed five expeditions to India for the company in 1720–22, 1722–24, 1725–27 and 1727–29.
She was sent to the Nicobar Islands in 1723, anchoring at Nancory Island for a few months. The captain and 22 crew members died from disease in the unhealthy climate. Former governor Morten Mortensen Færoe returned to Copenhagen onboard the ship in 1724.
Former governor Christian Ulrich von Nissen returned to Denmark with the ship in 1726 (departure from Tranquebar: 22 October).
She was under the command of captain Anders Mogensen Brun on the last of the five expeditions, returning to Copenhagen in 1729.

### DAC service

The Danish East India Company ceased operations in 1729. On 4 August 1732, she was sold to the new Danish Asiatic Company. Three other DOC ships—Vendela,Kronprinsen af Danmark and Fridericus Quartus—were also sold to the Danish Asiatic Company. With a price of just 4,000 rigsdaler, Grev Laurvig was considerably cheaper than the three other ships, which were sold for 6,000–7,500 rigsdaler.

#### 1732–1735

Grev Laurvig sailed from Copenhagen in late 1732, bound for Tranquebar. She carried a cargo with a total value of 70,000 rigsdaler, consisting mostly of silver (66,697 rigsdaler). She arrived at Tranquebar on 11 July 1733.
Rolluf Olsen Kierulff served as understyrmand on the outbound voyage. Prior to the ship's departure from Tranquebar he was promoted to overstyrmand, After the death of the captain, he took over the command of the ship.
Grev Laurvig sailed from Tranquebar on 4 February 1734, bound for Copenhagen. She saluted Kronborg Castle on 15 February 1735, marking her safe return to Danish waters. The DAC's share of the return cargo was sold at auction for 88,939 rigsdaler.
# Eva Evdokimova

Eva Maria Evdokimova-Gregori (December 1, 1948 – April 3, 2009) was an American Prima Ballerina Assoluta with the Royal Danish, Berlin Opera Ballets, English National Ballet and guest artist with virtually every major ballet company worldwide.

## Early life

Born in Geneva, Switzerland to Evdokim Evdokimov, a stateless Bulgarian-American father (1919-2008), and American mother, Thora Mary Hatten (1914-1991). Evdokimova, an American citizen from birth, began her ballet studies as a child in Munich. She later attended the Royal Ballet School in London, where she studied for several years under the direction of Maria Fay. In 1966, she became the first non-Danish dancer to join the Royal Danish Ballet, where she continued her studies under Vera Volkova.

## Career

She graduated into the Berlin Opera Ballet in 1969, where she danced her first Giselle in 1971. She was promoted to prima ballerina in 1973, a position she held for 12 years. For many years she was also the leading ballerina of the London Festival Ballet (now English National Ballet), where she was chosen by Rudolf Nureyev to dance the first Princess Aurora in his production of The Sleeping Beauty with the company in 1975.
Throughout her career, she danced with virtually every major international ballet company including the Kirov Ballet, where she was coached by Natalia Dudinskaya, the American Ballet Theatre, and the Paris Opera Ballet. She was frequently paired with Nureyev. Their partnership lasted over fifteen years and they performed hundreds of times together.
After a performance with the Kirov Ballet she was awarded the title "Prima Ballerina Assoluta." Subsequently, she was billed that way internationally. In addition to her interpretations of the tragic heroines of the Romantic era, namely Giselle and La Sylphide, her repertoire encompassed about 150 roles ranging from classical to contemporary works. The last dance created for her (by choreographer Henning Rübsam) in 2002, prompted New York Times critic Jennifer Dunning to comment, "Both the solo and her performance were celebrations of the kind of artistry that comes only with maturity and experience."
The first American to win any international ballet competition, Evdokimova won the Varna International Ballet Competition in 1970. She was awarded the charter Ulanova Prize in 2005 for "selfless dedication to the art of dance".
In New York she studied acting at HB Studio.

## Later life

Evdokimova later became a dance teacher and ballet mistress at the Boston Ballet and judged numerous international ballet competitions. There are numerous clips of her performances on YouTube although not remastered.

## Death

She died on April 3, 2009, aged 60, from complications of cancer in Manhattan, New York, according to her husband, Michael S. Gregori. She is survived by her brother Boris Santini and her husband, Michael S. Gregori, who during 2017 was left homeless after a legal feud with his mother and siblings forced him out of his mother's apartment.

## Final resting place

As of 2019, the final resting place of her remains is currently unknown, according to the New York Post
# Variations for Orchestra (Schoenberg)

Variations for Orchestra, Op. 31 (1926–28) is an orchestral set of variations on a theme, composed by Arnold Schoenberg and is his first twelve-tone composition for a large ensemble. Premiered in December 1928 by the Berlin Philharmonic conducted by Wilhelm Furtwängler, it was greeted by a tumultuous scandal.

## Sections

* Introduction
* Theme
* Variation I: Moderato
* Variation II: Adagio
* Variation III: Mässig
* Variation IV: Walzer-tempo
* Variation V: Bewegt
* Variation VI: Andante
* Variation VII: Langsam
* Variation VIII: Sehr rasch
* Variation IX: L'istesso Tempo
* Finale

## Music

The theme of the piece is stated in measures 34–57. The orchestration includes a flexatone. The piece features the BACH motif (B♭–A–C–B♮). The tone row in its four permutations (labeled Prime, Retrograde, Inversion, and Retrograde Inversion) are shown below.
Schoenberg opened a lecture on the composition with the following tyranny of the majority defense of less common aesthetics: "Far be it from me to question the rights of the majority. But one thing is certain: somewhere there is a limit to the power of the majority; it occurs, in fact, wherever the essential step is one that cannot be taken by all and sundry."
The piece has been arranged for two pianos by Charles Wuorinen and this arrangement was set to a ballet, Schoenberg Variations (1996), by Richard Tanner of the New York City Ballet.

# Lawrence Benjamin Brown

Lawrence Benjamin Brown (August 29, 1893 – December 25, 1972) was an American singer, composer and pianist born in Jacksonville, Florida. He is best known for his arrangements of Negro spirituals, many of which he performed as accompanist for Paul Robeson, performing on piano and singing harmony.

## Early life

Lawrence was raised by his father, Clark Benjamin Brown, and his stepmother, Cenia Brown. Lawrence's birth mother died when he was three years old. Clark and his father were formerly enslaved.

## Education and early career

Brown's first music teacher was William Riddick, and was sent to study his principal instrument, piano, in Boston, Massachusetts. He worked as an elevator operator to make up for the costs his scholarships did not cover. He made his debut as a concert accompanist for tenor Sydney Woodward, and was later discovered by tenor Roland Hayes, with whom he toured from 1918 to 1923, including a performance at Buckingham Palace in 1921. While in England, he attended Trinity College for advanced training, where he received education in composition from Amanda Aldridge. In addition to piano and vocal arrangements, he performed string arrangements with cellist Beatrice Harrison at Wigmore Hall.

## Folk songs and spirituals

Following the publication of some of his arrangements of Negro spirituals in James Weldon Johnson's Book of American Negro Spirituals, Brown published his own Negro Folk Songs in 1930. His arrangements were performed by Paul Robeson in concert in 1925 at the Greenwich Village Theatre, and he continued a professional relationship and friendship with Robeson for the next 40 years accompanying each other in tours of Show Boat, with Brown harmonizing with his tenor voice. They toured internationally, including in Paris, London, Ireland, for the King of Spain and the Prince of Wales.

## Recordings with Paul Robeson

Robeson and Brown recorded many of Brown's arrangements on RCA Victor Records, including "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen", "Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child", and "Joe Hill". "Ballad for Americans" was an international success for the team. The two toured together with the USO during World War II. Brown did significant research for Robeson's projects, and actively sought folk music from around the world. He was frequently contacted by conductors seeking obscure folk music. He also had relationships with writers Lloyd Louis Brown and Langston Hughes. His friendship with Robeson and his wife, Eslanda ("Essie") Cardozo Goode Robeson, was challenged when Paul was blacklisted. Brown retired in 1963 after Robeson's career ended.

## Personal life

Brown never married, and lived in Harlem for the last 47 years of his life. Saint Martin's Episcopal Church in Harlem honored Brown with a memorial concert in February 1973.
In his 2017 book, Fighting Proud, in the chapter dedicated to Ken Johnson, historian Stephen Bourne lists Brown as one of the many jazz musicians, whose homosexuality "has not been fully acknowledged."
# Nasiriyah Gate

Nasiriyah Gate (Arabic: بوابة الناصرية) is a historic arch-monument in the al-Nassiriyah neighborhood of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Built in the 1950s, the gate served as the eastern entrance to the al-Nassiriyah Palace complex. It covers an area of 20.7 acres and incorporates some elements of Islamic and modernist architecture.
The monument was built in the 1950s as part of the construction of al-Nassiriyah Palace complex during the reign of King Saud bin Abdulaziz. With much of the original palace structure being demolished by 1967, the gateway survived and was later restored in the 1970s by the Riyadh Municipality.
The monument is today situated nearby the King Saud Square, opposite to the headquarters of Ministry of Foreign Affairs at the intersection of Prince Talal bin Abdulaziz Street and al-Nasiriyah Street.

# Jingtai Mausoleum

The Jingtai Mausoleum (Chinese: 景泰陵; pinyin: Jǐngtàilíng) is the mausoleum of the Jingtai Emperor, the seventh emperor of the Ming dynasty. It is located in the Haidian District, 17 km northwest of central Beijing, and is situated north of Jingming Park.

## History

After the Tumu Crisis of 1449, the Jingtai Emperor placed his brother, the former Emperor Yingzong, under house arrest in the Forbidden City. In 1457, Emperor Yingzong took the throne after a conspiracy and the Jingtai Emperor died shortly thereafter. At the time of his death, the Jingtai Emperor had almost completed his tomb at the Ming tombs where his ancestors were buried. However, Emperor Yingzong completely destroyed the tomb. Instead, the Jingtai Emperor was buried as a prince along with Empress Wang north of Yuquan Mountain at the foot of the Western Mountains in the northwestern outskirts of Beijing. During the reign of the Chenghua Emperor (r. 1464–1487), the tomb was upgraded to an imperial tomb.
The original and long-unused tomb of the Jingtai Emperor was rebuilt in 1621 as Qing Mausoleum, where the Taichang Emperor was buried in the same year.
Compared to the other imperial tombs from the Ming dynasty, Jingtai Mausoleum is smaller. The remains of the tomb are in very poor condition and the area where it is located now serves as a residential area for retired military personnel.
# LibertyLink

LibertyLink is a BASF-owned brand of genes for use in agriculture providing tolerance to Liberty herbicide and glufosinate (a.k.a. Liberty or Basta). The genes were developed by Bayer CropScience, before being sold to BASF Ag in late 2017. LibertyLink provides an herbicide resistance system that is still effective in the presence of glyphosate resistant weeds. The gene which gives resistance to glufosinate is a bar or pat gene which was first isolated from two species of Streptomyces bacteria. Glufosinate was included in a biocide ban proposed by the Swedish Chemicals Agency and approved by the European Parliament on January 13, 2009.

## Crops

The LibertyLink gene is available in a variety of crops including corn, cotton, canola, sugarbeet and soybean. It is not available in rice.

## Contamination lawsuit

In 2006, the U.S. Department of Agriculture announced that Bayer CropScience's LibertyLink genetically modified rice had contaminated the U.S. rice supply. Shortly after the public learned of the contamination, the E.U. banned imports of U.S. long-grain rice and the futures price plunged. In April 2010, a Lonoke County, Arkansas jury awarded a dozen farmers $48 million. The case was appealed to the Arkansas Supreme Court, which affirmed the judgement. On 1 July 2011, Bayer CropScience agreed to a global settlement for up to $750 million.
# By the Law of Music

By the Law of Music is an album by American jazz pianist Matthew Shipp which was recorded in 1996 and released on the Swiss HatART label. It was re-released on the hatOLOGY imprint in 2002.
The record marks the debut of his String Trio with violinist Mat Maneri and bassist William Parker. On all other previous recordings Maneri played electric violin, but in this session used exclusively acoustic violin. The album was conceived as a twelve-part suite, but Shipp decided to record Duke Ellington's "Solitude" as a final touch after the suite.

## Reception

| AllMusic | |
In his review for AllMusic, Steve Loewy states "As with almost any artistic invention, the music can be heard on a variety of levels: as chamber jazz, it has a beauty that rewards even the casual listener, while the sophisticated interrelationships give it a great depth and even charm." The JazzTimes review by Josef Woodard says that "The album closes disarmingly, with an anarchic reading of Duke Ellington's 'Solitude', in which the pianist lays down the recognizable form of the tune, while the others dance in atonal abandon."

# Xuanfu Garrison

The Xuanfu Garrison (Chinese: 宣府镇; pinyin: Xuānfǔzhèn) was one of the Nine Garrisons established by the Ming dynasty to defend the northern border and Great Wall of China.
The area of responsibility was the defense of the outer stretch of the Great Wall, spanning from Juyong Pass north of Beijing to Huai'an, located 40 km west of Zhangjiakou in Hebei. Due to its strategic location northwest of Beijing, the wall in the Xuanfu Garrison was reinforced and often consisted of several parallel layers, including the strategic passage of Dajingmen north of Zhangjiakou. In total, the Xuanfu Garrison was responsible for 510 km of the Great Wall.
The garrison was established during the reign of the Yongle Emperor (r. 1402–1424). Its headquarters were located near present-day Xuanhua, 20 km southeast of Zhangjiakou. The wall belonging to the Xuanfu Garrison was built in the mid-16th century in response to repeated attacks by the Mongols, led by Altan Khan.
The Xuanfu Garrison was under the command of Xuanda. To the east, it bordered the Jizhou Garrison, and to the west, the Datong Garrison.
# Large Helical Device

The Large Helical Device (大型ヘリカル装置, Ōgata Herikaru Sōchi) (LHD) is a fusion research device located in Toki, Gifu, Japan. It is operated by the National Institute for Fusion Science, and is the world's second-largest superconducting stellarator, after Wendelstein 7-X. The LHD employs a heliotron magnetic field originally developed in Japan.
The objective of the project is to conduct fusion plasma confinement research in a steady state in order to elucidate possible solutions to physics and engineering problems in helical plasma reactors. The LHD uses neutral beam injection, ion cyclotron radio frequency (ICRF), and electron cyclotron resonance heating (ECRH) to heat the plasma, much like conventional tokamaks. The helical divertor heat and particle exhaust system uses the large helical coils to produce a diverting field. This configuration allows for the modification of the stochastic layer size, which is positioned between the confined plasma volume and the field lines that terminate on the divertor plate. Boundary plasma research at LHD focuses on the capability of the helical divertor as an exhaust system for heliotrons and stellarators.

## History

* Design finalized 1987
* Start of construction 1990
* Plasma operations from 1998
* Neutral beam injection of 3 MW was used in 1999.
* In 2005 it maintained a plasma for 3,900 seconds.
* In 2006 a new helium cooler was added. Using the new cooler, by 2018 a total of 10 long term operations have been achieved, reaching a maximum power level of 11.833 kA.
* To aid public acceptance, an exhaust system was designed to catch and filter the radioactive tritium the fusion process produces.
