# Terry Urban

Terry Urban is an American artist, DJ and producer best known for the mixtapes Viva la Hova, Southerngold and Biggie Stardust.

## Biography

Terry Urban was born in Cleveland, Ohio on May 23, 1977. After graduating school he moved to San Diego, California to pursue a career in Skateboarding. It was in San Diego where Terry was first introduced to Turntablism. Urban moved back to his hometown of Cleveland and began to DJ and also paint graffiti. In 2004 he was hired to be a DJ on a local Cleveland radio station WENZ and then quickly after was hired as a DJ with his own show at Sirius Satellite Radio. Urban's career as a DJ began to flourish and he became less interested in graffiti. In 2006 Terry decided to pursue his career as DJ and moved to New York City. Terry began to work on music and started to produce his own remixes which have received accolades from such greats as Coldplay, Jay Z, Kanye West and Drake. In 2015 looking for another creative outlet, Urban began to paint once again. Over the past years, Terry Urban has completely immersed himself into his work and has exhibited his paintings in many solo shows.

## Music

Terry Urban has released mixtapes including "Unbelievable" (tribute to The Notorious B.I.G., hosted by P. Diddy), "The Graduate (hosted by Kanye West) and Viva La Hova, which mashed up Jay-Z and Coldplay. He released "Southerngold" in 2009 which mixed Santigold with music by contemporary southern rappers. The mixtape drew legal attention from Santigold's record label in the form of a cease and desist later. The mixtape album "Lady Stardust" put Lady Gaga songs together with David Bowie tracks.

## Art

Urban's style is most influenced by Abstract expressionism and Neo-expressionism, where he is not interested in an accurate execution of his subjects, but rather in exploring the possibilities of abstraction. In his early years, Urban was interested in art and began to paint graffiti. However, his music career as a DJ began to flourish and his painting took a back seat. Musically, Urban's DJ career has spanned over a decade but he was looking for a more creative outlet in life. In 2015, with advice from a close friend, Urban began to paint once again. Over the past years, Urban has completely immersed himself into his work and has exhibited his paintings in many solo shows.

# Tnuvot

Tnuvot (Hebrew: תְּנוּבוֹת, lit. 'Crops') is a moshav in central Israel. Located in the Sharon plain between Netanya and Tulkarm, it falls under the jurisdiction of Lev HaSharon Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 863.

## History

A historical ancient site with a mosaic from the Roman–Byzantine era, called "Tel Shevah" (Arabic Tall Subh) is located nearby, as is a landing strip for ultralight aviation. Before the 20th century the area formed part of the Forest of Sharon. It was an open woodland dominated by Mount Tabor Oak, which extended from Kfar Yona in the north to Ra'anana in the south. The local Arab inhabitants traditionally used the area for pasture, firewood and intermittent cultivation. The intensification of settlement and agriculture in the coastal plain during the 19th century led to deforestation and subsequent environmental degradation.
The village was founded in 1952, on land confiscated from Qalansawe ,by Jewish immigrants from Yemen. Its name is symbolic for its agricultural base and was taken from the Bible by the verse : "He made him ride on the high places of the earth, and he did eat the fruitage of the field; and He made him to suck honey out of the crag, and oil out of the flinty rock" (Deuteronomy 32,13).

# Porat, Israel

Porat (Hebrew: פּוֹרָת, lit. 'Fruitful vine') is a mixed (religious and non-religious) moshav in central Israel. Located in the Sharon plain between Ein Vered and Kfar Yabetz, it falls under the jurisdiction of Lev HaSharon Regional Council. In 2022 it had a population of 1,295.

## History

Before the 20th century the area formed part of the Forest of Sharon. It was an open woodland dominated by Mount Tabor Oak, which extended from Kfar Yona in the north to Ra'anana in the south. The local inhabitants traditionally used the area for pasture, firewood and intermittent cultivation. The intensification of settlement and agriculture in the coastal plain during the 19th century, under the Ottoman Empire, led to deforestation and subsequent environmental degradation.
The village was founded in 1950 on lands expropriated from residents of the Arab village of Qalansawe. Its name is taken from the Book of Genesis 49:22;
   Joseph is a fruitful vine, a fruitful vine by a fountain; its branches run over the wall.
# Bourgeonal

Bourgeonal is an aromatic aldehyde used in perfumery. It has a fragrance reminiscent of lily of the valley, otherwise described as floral, watery, green, and aldehydic. It is a pale yellow liquid at room temperature.

## Synthesis

Industrial synthesis of bourgeonal involves a mixed aldol reaction of 4-tert-butylbenzaldehyde and acetaldehyde, followed by hydrogenation. Alternatively it may be produced by the alkylation of tert-butylbenzene with propanal (often in its acetal form).

## Biological effects

In a 2003 study it was found that in vitro, bourgeonal acts as a chemo-attractant for human spermatozoa, activating an olfactory receptor called OR1D2 (formerly called hOR17-4) which opens calcium ion channels in the sperm, leading them to swim twice as fast. Bourgeonal is suspected to be involved in helping sperm locate the ovum.
As of 2010, bourgeonal is the only known odor substance to which males have a higher average sensitivity than females. This is thought to be because the same olfactory receptor (OR1D2) is expressed in non-olfactory tissue in sperm cells as well as the olfactory tissue of the nose. The involvement with sperm chemotaxis causes an evolutionary pressure for males (sexual selection) that causes them to have more OR1D2 receptors on average, both in the nose as well as in sperm.

# Answer-seizure ratio

The answer-seizure ratio (ASR) is a measurement of network quality and call success rates in telecommunication. It is the percentage of answered telephone calls with respect to the total call volume.

## Definition

In telecommunication an attempted call is termed a seizure. The answer-seizure ratio is defined as 100 times the number of answered calls, i.e. the number of seizures resulting in an answer signal, divided by the total number of seizures:
$ASR=100\ {\frac {answered\ calls}{seized\ calls}}$
For example, if there were 156 calls dialed of which 62 were successfully connected, then:
ASR (%) = (62 [successful calls] / 156 [dialed calls]) x 100 = 39.74%
Busy signals and other call rejections by the telephone network count as call failures. However, the inclusion in the ASR accounting of some failed calls varies in practical applications. This makes the ASR highly dependent on end-user action. Low answer-seizure ratios may be caused by far-end switch congestion, not answering by called parties and busy destination circuits.
An exceptionally good ASR score would be 60% or above. 40% – 50% is considered acceptable. Anything below 40% is considered quite poor.
