# Jumba la Mtwana

Jumba la Mtwana is the site of historical structures and archaeological relics on the Indian Ocean coast of Kenya, lying close to the Mtwapa Creek, in Kilifi county, north of Mombasa. It dates back to the fourteenth century. Its features include a mosque by the sea.

## Description

The archaeological site includes three mosques built of coral stone, a tomb and eight houses. The territory was added to the list of national monuments of Kenya on June 4, 1982. The excavations were carried out by James Kirkman in 1972. There are no written historical records about the city, but the Chinese ceramics found make it possible to trace the dating back to the fourteenth century. The absence of later sherds suggests that this settlement was abandoned at the beginning of the fifteenth century.
The city was located close to fresh water sources and was protected from attack from the ocean. The architectural style is made in the Arabic style using coral blocks.

## Peculiarities

The House with Many Doors is notable for its Gothic-style door. The house is divided into apartments that can accommodate several visitors. The Mosque by the Sea is the best preserved ruin. Several pools were used for ablutions, and coral stone stands for washing feet. The tomb contains a funerary stele made of coral. A passage from the Koran is carved on it, but the epitaph is illegible.

# Maze Craze

Maze Craze: A Game of Cops n’ Robbers is a game for the Atari Video Computer System (later renamed the Atari 2600) developed by Rick Maurer and published by Atari, Inc. in 1980. In Maze Craze, two players compete to be the first to escape a randomly generated, top-down maze. Though primarily a two player game, any of the variations that don't involve interaction with the second player can be played solo. Sears rebranded Maze Craze as Maze Mania for its Tele-Games system.

## Gameplay

The manual describes the situation as a "maze of city blocks" and the player a red or blue cop on patrol. The cops are represented as squares. The goal is to reach the exit. In multiplayer games, the first player to find their way out wins.
Some variants add robber blocks to the maze which either need to be avoided or captured, depending. Others make the maze either partially or fully invisible, and maze is periodically revealed for a moment or only when the joystick button is pressed. In the "Blockcade" variant, each player can drop a false wall to trick the other player. There are settings to increase or decrease the speed of the cops and robbers and the number of robbers in the maze.

## Development

Maurer had been working on a clone of Space Invaders for the VCS, but because no one at Atari seemed interested in it, he looked for a new project. He took inspiration from the Fairchild Channel F Maze cartridge by Mike Glass, resulting in Maze Craze. He later completed his version of Space Invaders, which was officially licensed from Taito and became the killer app for the console.
Maze Craze is a 4K cartridge.
# Manuel Mendes

Manuel Mendes (or Manoel Mendes; c. 1547 – 24 September 1605) was a Portuguese composer and teacher of the Renaissance. While his music remains obscure, he was important as the teacher of several of the composers of the golden age of Portuguese polyphony, including Duarte Lobo and Manuel Cardoso.
He was born in Lisbon, and studied music with Cosme Delgado in Évora as a youth. Later he was appointed mestre de capela at the cathedral in Portalegre, but returned to Évora to receive a bachelor's degree in 1575. In 1575 he became a priest and teacher of the choirboys in the cathedral. His students included some of the most famous Portuguese composers of the early 17th century, such as Duarte Lobo, Manuel Cardoso, Filipe de Magalhães and Manuel Rebelo. See: List of music students by teacher: K to M#Manuel Mendes. He died at Évora.
While Mendes was evidently a prolific composer, his works are only extant in manuscript. He was famous in the 16th century, and his music traveled to Spain as well as Mexico, where he was highly regarded.

# Rhododendron grande

Rhododendron grande is a rhododendron species with a native range from eastern Nepal, Sikkim, Bhutan into central Arunachal Pradesh and southern Tibet. It grows at altitudes of 2100–3200 meters and reaches 6–15 meters in height in mixed forests. Flowers vary from cream to yellow to pink, spotted with a blotch on the top petal.

## Description from J.D.Hooker

RHODODENDRON ARGENTEUM, Hook· fil.
Silvery Rhododendron,
Arboreum, foliis amplis subcoriaceis obovato-oblongis acutis in petiolum crassum attenuatis planis utrinque glaberrimis subtus argenteis costa nervisque prominulis, bracteis deciduis dense sericeis, pedunculis brevibus crassis puberulis, calyce brevissimo obscure lobato, corolla (inter maximas) alba late campanulata, limbi segmentis breviusculis bilobis, staminibus 10, filamentis glabris, ovarii pubescentis loculis subsedecim, stylo flexuoso crasso, stigmate dilatato.
HAB. Sikkim-Himalaya; summit of Sinchul, Suradah, and Tonglo. elev. 8,000-10,000 feet. Fl. April.
A tree thirty feet high: trunks solitary, or two or three together, spreading, branched above, the bark pale, the branches leafy at the apex. Leaves very beautiful in the leaf-buds, erect and silky, at first enveloped in large scales, so closely imbricated and so large, as to resemble the cones of some species of pine, the outer or lower scales broad and coriaceous, glabrous, coloured (reddish-brown) the innermost ones oblong-spathulate, pubescent. When fully developed the leaves are among the largest of the genus, six inches to a foot long, three to five inches broad, coriaceous, nearly plane, glabrous, full green above with parallel rather closely placed nerves, beneath silvery white, with the costa and nerves prominent. Petioles short. Bracteas deciduous, densely silky. Flowers two to three inches long, two to two and a half inches in diameter, always white.
In the silvery underside of the foliage, but in nothing else, this resembles R. arboreum; while in the much divided limb of the corolla, the ten-celled ovary, the stout flexuose style and large stigma, it approaches R. Falconeri, but only in those particulars. The blossoms are only second in size to R. Dalhousiae. On Sinchul, the higher parts of the mountain, at 8,000 to 9,000 feet (ca. 2700 m) of elevation, are more or less clothed with it: on Tonglo, as it approaches 10,000 f. (3.200 m) it is suddenly replaced by R. Falconeri. It seems to be shy of flowering, this season at least (1848); for it was with difficulty I could procure sufficient specimens to complete my drawing.
