# Léon Rom

Léon Auguste Théophile Rom (2 April 1859 – 30 January 1924) was a Belgian military officer and colonial administrator. His role in atrocities in the Congo Free State have led some to speculate that Rom served as an inspiration for the character of Kurtz in Joseph Conrad's 1899 novella Heart of Darkness.

## Life

Léon Auguste Théophile Rom was born on 2 April 1859 to a poor family in Mons, Belgium, and joined the Belgian Army at the age of 16. He subsequently worked as a customs officer before leaving Belgium for the Congo Free State in 1886 as one of the few hundred whites working in the colony's administration.
Receiving a series of rapid promotions, Rom commanded the station at Stanley Falls and was eventually promoted District Commissioner of Matadi. He later transferred to the colonial military, the Force Publique, where he served as a captain. He was praised for his conduct during the Congo Arab War (1892–94) in which he personally negotiated the surrender of an Arab stronghold. After retiring from the Force Publique, he worked as an official for the Compagnie du Kasai in central Congo.
Rom became most infamous for his role in atrocities in the Congo Free State in the Stanley Falls area. According to contemporary reports from the travel-writer and journalist Edward James Glave written on February 21st 1895, Rom had used the severed heads of 21 Congolese, who resisted having their family members stolen, to decorate the flower beds of his house at Stanley Falls. He is also said to have kept a gallows permanently in place at his station.
Still working for the Compagnie du Kasai, Rom died in Brussels in 1924.

## In popular culture

It has been argued that Rom served as the inspiration for the character of Mr. Kurtz, an ivory trader who features prominently in Joseph Conrad's 1899 novella Heart of Darkness. Among those who have made this argument are Adam Hochschild who argued in King Leopold's Ghost that Rom and Conrad may have met in 1890. Other scholars have rejected this.
Rom notably features as the main antagonist in the 2016 film The Legend of Tarzan, in which he is portrayed by the Austrian actor Christoph Waltz.

# Thrigmopoeus truculentus

Thrigmopoeus truculentus is a species of Indian tarantula found in the Western Ghats. It is also known as the Karwar large burrowing spider, Karwar burrowing spider and lesser Goa mustard tarantula.

## Range

Thrigmopoeus truculentus is endemic to the Western Ghats region, specifically Karnataka, Goa, Maharashtra. It has been recorded from vertical bunds along the roads and trek paths in Coorg as well as other locations in Goa, Maharashtra and Karnataka.

## Habitat and ecology

Burrows of Thrigmopoeus truculentus were found in 0.5-5m height from the ground in Coorg and Uttara Kannada districts. These bunds are usually covered with ferns and grasses in Monsoon and post-monsoon. The burrows are found on bunds with high canopy or in the ghat areas were direct sunlight was minimum. Only very few sightings of burrows without canopy are observed. The entrances of burrows belonging to T. truculentus is often shaped like a trumpet-bell, the rim of which is consolidated with wet mud and spider silk. In some cases a porch like entrance is seen due to the extended dorsal rim of the burrow. Often the burrow entrance is reinforced with adjacent twigs, dry leaves and other such artifacts that prevents it from collapsing, as it also offers an extended passage during entry and exit for the inmate of the burrows. The embankments on which the burrows were dug by the spiders were predominantly covered with herbaceous flora, and in the monsoon season the microhabitat was covered in lush green vegetation which conspicuously decreased in post-monsoon.

## Pet trade

Thrigmopoeus truculentus has much lesser demand in the pet trade market compared to other spiders, with buyers mainly from United Kingdom, US, Germany and Poland. With increasing demand for tarantulas as pets, there has been an exponential increase in illegal trade and captive breeding efforts. There are indications that locals are usually hired for collection, the spiders are then smuggled to breeders/collectors.

## Threats

Thrigmopoeus truculentus is threatened by fragmentation, habitat degradation, soil erosion, developmental activities and pet trade. Habitat degradation is caused by the widening of roads where T. truculentus build its burrows, cutting of trees, soil erosion, tourism and other such human infleuence and bund maintenance. T. truculentus originally barely missed the vulnerable category as listed in the 2008 IUCN Red List of Threatened Animals, However, due to the continuing decline inferred in its area of occupancy, in the quality of habitat and population, T. truculentus has since been put in the Near-threatened species category.

# Road Rage (1995 video game)

Road Rage (known as Speed King NEO KOBE 2045 in Japan) is a 1995 cyberpunk-themed racing video game by Konami, originally released for arcades before being ported to the PlayStation in 1996 in Japan followed by 1997 in Europe.
The game contains references to a large number of other Konami games (Gradius, Parodius, Metal Gear, Snatcher, Frogger, etc.). The races themselves take place in the city of Neo Kobe (known from Konami's Snatcher), inspired by the movie Blade Runner. The gameplay is similar to the better-known futuristic racing series Wipeout. In order to approximate the authentic gameplay of the original arcade version, the PlayStation port features support for the NeGcon analog controller.
The European PlayStation version of the game is considered obscure and very rare the same can be said for the arcade cabinets due to their elusive status.

## Reception

Famitsu scored the PlayStation port 21 out of 40, with criticism given to the "floatiness" and sense of speed.
# George Novack

George Novack (August 5, 1905, Boston, Massachusetts – July 30, 1992, New York City) was an American Marxist theoretician, editor, and activist.

## Biography

Novack attended Harvard University for five years, though without earning a degree, and was on a successful track in the publishing business when the beginning of the Great Depression radicalized him.

In 1937-40, Novack served as the secretary of the American Committee for the Defence of Leon Trotsky. This body initiated the celebrated 1937 Dewey Commission that inquired into the charges made against Trotsky in the Moscow show trials, and found them to have been a complete frame-up. He played a major role in the defense campaign for the 18 SWP leaders imprisoned in World War II under the Smith Act.
Novack remained a member of the SWP until his death, although he withdrew from regular political activity after the death of his second wife, Evelyn Reed, in 1979, living quietly in a New York senior citizens' home.

Novack produced a number of books on various aspects of Marxism. His work largely focused on presenting Marxist concepts in an accessible fashion, with major works on Dialectics, Historical materialism, and alienation.
