# Hananiah Harari

Hananiah Harari (August 29, 1912 – July 19, 2000) was an American painter and illustrator.

## Life

Harari was born Richard (Dick) Falk Goldman, in Rochester, New York. He studied at the Syracuse University School of Fine Arts. He went to Paris in the 1930s, where he studied with Fernand Léger from 1932 to 1934; he also studied with Marcel Gromaire and André Lhote. Following a visit to Palestine, he returned to the United States in 1935.
He helped found the American Abstract Artists in 1937. Some of his works of this period record his reaction as a Jew to the rise of Fascism in Europe; an example is The Dictators (1938, oil and collage on canvas; now in the Jewish Museum, New York). His first New York exhibition was in 1939, at Mercury Gallery. He worked in both a semi-abstract style, and a precise realist style; inspired by the work of William Michael Harnett, he painted many trompe-l'œil still lifes. Several silkscreens from this period are in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and in the Yale University Collection.
In the 1940s he produced artwork for the covers of magazines, including Fortune. He also contributed cartoons to The New Masses, which led to his being blacklisted in the 1950s during the McCarthy era. Using his gifts for Realism, he became a successful portrait painter affiliated with Portraits, Inc. One of his portraits is in the National Portrait Gallery in Washington D.C. Harari taught at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan from 1974 to 1990, and at the Art Students League from 1984 to 1999, where most of his classes were filled to capacity. He stopped teaching when he could no longer see. With the Reagan presidency, his political leanings became increasingly conservative. A patriot to the end, and per his request, his coffin was draped with the American flag. He was elected into the National Academy of Design in 1990 as an Associate member and became a full Academician in 1994.
In 1997 a traveling retrospective of his work was mounted at the Montclair Art Museum in New Jersey. He died in Hawthorne, New York in 2000.
Harari's work is included in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the National Gallery of Art, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, and the Whitney Museum of American Art.

# Judiciary of Venezuela

The judiciary of Venezuela is a branch of the government of Venezuela that interprets and applies the laws of Venezuela, to ensure equal justice under law, and to provide a mechanism for dispute resolution. The judiciary is headed by the Supreme Tribunal of Justice, whose 32 justices ("magistrados") are elected by the National Assembly for a single 12-year term. The legal system of Venezuela is based on the continental law tradition. Venezuela was the first country in the world to abolish the death penalty for all crimes, doing so in 1863.

## Independence

Venezuela's judicial system has been deemed the most corrupt in the world by Transparency International. Human Rights Watch claims that some judges may face reprisals if they rule against government interests. According to a 2014 Gallup poll, 61% of Venezuelans lack confidence in the judicial system.
On 16 September 2021, the Independent International Fact-Finding Mission on Venezuela released its second report on the country's situation, concluding that the independence of the Venezuelan justice system under Nicolás Maduro has been deeply eroded, to the extent of playing an important role in aiding state repression and perpetuating state impunity for human rights violations. The document identified frequent due process violations, including the use of pre-trial detention as a routine (rather than an exceptional measure) and judges sustaining detentions or charges based on manipulated or fabricated evidence, evidence obtained through illegal means, and evidence obtained through coercion or torture; in some of the reviewed cases, the judges also failed to protect torture victims, returning them to detentions centers were torture was denounced, "despite having heard victims, sometimes bearing visible injuries consistent with torture, make the allegation in court". The report also concluded that prosecutorial and judicial individuals at all levels witness or experienced external interference in decision-making, and that several reported receiving instructions either from the judicial or prosecutorial hierarchy or from political officials on how to decide cases.
# Isaiah Pillars

Isaiah Pillars (March 17, 1833 – September 13, 1895) was a lawyer in the U.S. state of Ohio who served in the Ohio House of Representatives and was Ohio Attorney General 1878-1880.

## Biography

Isaiah Pillars was born March 17, 1833, in Jefferson County, Ohio, and spent part of his youth in Carroll County before being moved to Risden (now Fostoria) in Seneca County, where his mother died when he was eight years old. At age sixteen, he began teaching school, and attended the Seneca County Academy and Heidelberg College in Tiffin. He read law in the office of his brother James Pillars. He was admitted to the bar at age 21 and commenced practice at Lima, Ohio, in 1855. In 1862 he was made commandant of Camp Lima by Governor Tod with rank Colonel, and organized the 99th, 118th and 81st Ohio Infantry regiments.
In 1866 Pillars was elected Prosecuting Attorney of Allen County, and was elected as a Democrat to the Ohio House of representatives in 1871 for the 60th General Assembly, 1872-1873. He vigorously opposed a tax to support railroad construction, and was vindicated when the Ohio Supreme Court found the tax unconstitutional. He also authored a minority report in favor of abolishing capital punishment, with a summary of arguments:
* That the infliction of death as a punishment for crime, is a relic of the laws of revenge and retaliation.
* That crime is not lessened by, and that the protection of society in no way demands the death of the offender.
* That the infliction of capital punishment does not deter others by way of example, from the commission of crime.
* That its effect upon society is to debase and blunt the finer sensibilities, and thereby increases the disposition for the commission of crime.
* That by it, one of the legitimate purposes of punishment, the reformation of the criminal is wholly defeated.
* That by capital punishment the divine right of life is violated under the sanction of law, the sacred regard for human life destroyed, and many times innocent persons put to death.
* That by substitution of imprisonment for life for the death penalty, convictions and punishments would be rendered far more certain, and thereby crime would be lessened, and all the purposes of punishment be accomplished.
In 1877, Pillars was elected Ohio Attorney General, defeating Republican George K. Nash. He lost to Nash for re-election in 1879. Pillars had been a Republican until 1864, but became a Democrat at that time.
Pillars married Susan Fickle of Lima in February 1866, or perhaps 1856., and she died in 1870. He had two sons and two daughters, one of whom died in early childhood. He was a believer in the doctrine of Emanuel Swedenborg, writing a small book about his life and doctrines.
Pillars died at Lima, Ohio September 13, 1895.

# Joseph H. Lines

Joseph H. Lines was an American politician from Arizona. He served a single term in the Arizona State Senate during the 5th Arizona State Legislature, holding the single seat from Graham County.

## Biography

Lines was born in Goshen, Utah on October 24, 1870, to parents who had immigrated from England. Lines moved to Pima, Arizona in 1881 with his family. He married Sarah Ferrin on October 6, 1891, in Thatcher, Arizona. They had 13 children, 10 of whom lived to adulthood: Freda Elizabeth, Charles Henry, Rowena, Laverna, Lavona, Walter, Milo, Alice, Claud, and Della. By 1901 Lines was living on his ranch south of Pima, where he served as justice of the peace from 1895 through 1904. He and his brothers operated a mercantile business called Lines Bros., of which Lines was the manager.
In June 1914, Lines announced his intention to run in the Democrat's primary for one of the two seats from Graham County to the Arizona House of Representatives. He and his running mate, J. D. Lee ran unopposed in the primary, and both won in the general election in November. In 1916 he ran for re-election to the House, this time with A. C. Peterson as his running mate. The two ran unopposed in the primary, and easily defeated their Republican opponents in November's general election. In 1918 both Lines and Peterson ran for re-election, and were unopposed in both the primary and the general election. When the 4th Arizona State Legislature was organized in January 1919, both Lines and Peterson were competing for the Speakership of the House. Lines took his name out of contention, and Peterson was named Speaker.
In July 1920 Lines decided not to run for re-election, instead choosing to run for the sole seat from Graham County in the Arizona State Senate. He easily won election, having no opposition in either the Democrat primary, or the general election in November. He did not run for re-election in 1922. In 1924 he ran for the state senate again, facing off against the incumbent T. S. Kimball, who had replaced Lines in the 6th Arizona State Legislature. Lines narrowly defeated Kimball in the Democrat's primary by 18 votes. He then ran unopposed in the November general election. He did not run for re-election in 1926, leaving Kimball to run unopposed. However, the two did face off in the 1928 Democrat primary once again, this time with Kimball walking away victorious. In 1930, Lines once again ran for the Arizona House of Representatives, winning one of the two seats from Graham County. He did not run for re-election in 1932.
Lines died on September 21, 1961, in Mesa.
# Dick Jacobs

Dick Jacobs (29 March 1918 – 20 May 1988) was an American musician, conductor, arranger, orchestrator, music director and an artists-and-repertoire director for several record labels (Coral, Decca, Brunswick and Springboard). He helped Jackie Wilson, Buddy Holly, Bobby Darin and others early in their careers in the late 1950s and early 1960s.

## Life and career

Jacobs was born in New York City, United States, and graduated from New York University. During World War II, he served in the United States Army, then returned to the city and spent several years arranging for Tommy Dorsey. After that, he partnered with Sy Oliver to pursue freelance arranging work.
When he was hired to be the musical director for the television series, Your Hit Parade, for its 1957–58 season, he replaced most of the existing studio orchestra members with his own choices including Dick Hyman, Don Lamond, Al Caiola and Jerome Richardson. At that point, the Hit Parade orchestra became one of the first on-screen orchestras to become integrated. In 1953, he produced a number of acts, including the McGuire Sisters and Teresa Brewer, and by 1958 had a hit single, the theme tune from the movie Kathy-O. In 1956, his recording of "Man with the Golden Arm" sold over one million copies as a single and was awarded a gold disc.
According to The Ultimate Book of Songs and Artists, by Joel Whitburn, Jacobs's biggest hits were "Main Title" and "Molly-O" (1956), "Petticoats of Portugal" (1956), and "Fascination" (1957).
Jacobs brought a lush instrumental orchestral sound to a number of rock and roll songs in the late 1950s, notably those for Buddy Holly and Cirino Colacrai and his vocal quartet, the Bowties. Eventually retiring in the late 1970s, he and Harriet Jacobs wrote Who Wrote That Song?, a reference book on popular songs and songwriters.
He died in 1988 in New York City, at the age of 70.

Paracapoeta erhani, also known as the Ceyhan scraper or Seyhan scraper, is a Turkish species of freshwater cyprinid fish in the genus Paracapoeta.
It lives in the drainage basins of the Ceyhan and Seyhan Rivers, in many kinds of streams and also in reservoirs. These waters are in a relatively good ecological shape, and the species is therefore considered to be safe (least concern). The Seyhan population, formerly classified as Capoeta turani was classified as Near Threatened before being synonymised, which happened in the same paper that erected Paracapoeta in 2022.

# 2024 Tangerang mayoral election

The 2024 Tangerang mayoral election will be held on 27 November 2024 as part of nationwide local elections to elect the mayor of Tangerang for a five-year term. The previous election was held in 2018.

## Electoral system

The election, like other local elections in 2024, follow the first-past-the-post system where the candidate with the most votes wins the election, even if they do not win a majority. It is possible for a candidate to run uncontested, in which case the candidate is still required to win a majority of votes "against" an "empty box" option. Should the candidate fail to do so, the election will be repeated on a later date.

## Candidates

According to electoral regulations, in order to qualify for the election, candidates are required to secure support from a political party or a coalition of parties controlling 10 seats in the Tangerang City Regional House of Representatives (DPRD). As no parties won 10 or more seats in the 2024 election, coalitions are required to nominate a mayoral candidate. Candidates may alternatively demonstrate support in form of photocopies of identity cards, which in Tangerang's case corresponds to 88,541 copies. Within the deadline set by the General Elections Commission, no such candidates registered.
The previously elected mayor, Arief Rachadiono Wismansyah, had served two full terms and was therefore ineligible to run in the mayoral election.

### Declared

Candidate from PSI and Nasdem :
| Faldo Maldini | Fadlin Akbar |
| for Mayor | for Vice Mayor |
| Parties ||
| 17 / 50 (34%) Gerindra (6 seats) Nasdem (5 seats) PSI (4 seats) PAN (2 seats) ||

# Salvage drum

A Salvage Drum is an outer container used for shipping a leaking, damaged or non-compliant drum containing hazardous materials.
Several designs are available.
Originally designed to be greater than, or equal to, the construction and performance specifics of an inner container, the Performance Oriented Packaging Standards (POPS) of the US Department of Transportation requirement was that the Salvage Drum be at least a 'Z' (Packing Group III) solids container. Convinced that this was not an acceptable test for a Salvage Drum, on January 1, 1998, the 'T' Salvage Drum (1A2T) became the UN recommended salvage packaging for international shipments. The US-DOT, per 49 CFR 173.3, also recognizes the 'T' Salvage Drum for shipments within the US. Unlike the original 49 CFR Salvage Drum requirement, the 'T' Salvage Drum is most commonly an 85-US-gallon (320 L) steel drum that, meets UN Model Regulations test requirement 6.1.5.1.11, which specifies that when filled with water, the drum can qualify for Packing Group II and be dropped 1.2 metres (3.9 ft) on its most critical orientation, and not leak. In addition, the drum must successfully pass a 30 kilopascals (4.4 psi) Leakproofness Test. Both tests are very severe for an open-head steel container. This testing illustrates the extreme capabilities of the 'T' Salvage Drum when used for the safe recovery of hazardous materials in transportation.
