# Abu al-Husayn al-Basri

Abu'l-Husayn al-Basri (died 436/1044) was a Mu'tazilite jurist and theologian. He wrote al-Mu'tamad fi Usul al-Fiqh (The Canon of the Foundations of Jurisprudence), a major source of influence in informing the foundations of Islamic jurisprudence until Fakhr al-Din al-Razi's al-Mahsul fi 'Ilm al-Usul (The Compilation of the Fundamentals of the Legal Sciences).
He was a physician as well as a disciple of the Mu'tazilite judge Abd al-Jabbar in Rey. He challenged some of his master's teachings and eventually compiled a huge (two volumes; 1500 pages) critical review of the arguments and proofs used in Islamic scholastic theology. This, he summarised in al-Mu'tamad and included a critique of the qualifications of a legist. His works were generally handed down among students of medicine, and it was a century before his teachings were revived and espoused by the Mu'tazili scholar Ibn al-Malahimi in Khorezm in Central Asia, where they gained recognition as a school of Mu'tazili theology.

# Christoph Poppen

Christoph Poppen (born 9 March 1956) is a German conductor, violinist and academic teacher.

## Career

Poppen was born in Münster. As a violinist, he was awarded first prize in the Kocian Violin Competition age 14. He studied the violin with Kurt Schäffer at the Robert Schumann Hochschule, later with Oscar Shumsky, Nathan Milstein, and Joseph Gingold.
In 1978, Poppen founded the Cherubini Quartet, winning in 1981 at the international string quartet competition in Evian. He was the conductor of the chamber orchestra Detmolder Kammerorchester from 1989 to 1995. He then succeeded Hans Stadlmair as the conductor and artistic director of the Münchener Kammerorchester. In collaboration with ECM he recorded with the orchestra contemporary music of composers such as Karl Amadeus Hartmann, Tigran Mansurian, Anton Webern, Sofia Gubaidulina, Giacinto Scelsi, Valentin Silvestrov and Barry Guy. As a violinist, he recorded in 2000 works of Johann Sebastian Bach with the Hilliard Ensemble. The title Morimur (We shall die) stands for a juxtaposition of Bach's Partita for Violin No. 2, which is related to Easter according to scholar Helga Thoene, and interspersed chorales, some from his cantatas and Passions. The Partita's final Ciaconna is performed twice, once with the chorale which Bach may have had in mind, along with the violin music. The recording was described as
   ... one of those increasingly rare things – a moving and intelligently programmed disc that is effective from beginning to end.
From 2006 Poppen has been the conductor of the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Saarbrücken, which was, together with the Rundfunkorchester Kaiserslautern, named Deutsche Radio Philharmonie Saarbrücken Kaiserslautern in 2007.

## Teaching

In 1988, Poppen was appointed professor of violin and chamber music at the Hochschule für Musik Detmold. He taught at the Hochschule für Musik "Hanns Eisler" in Berlin from 1995 and was its director from 1996 to 2000. He has been professor for violin and chamber music at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater München since 2003.
In 2012–13, Poppen taught at the DO School in Hamburg as part of a Fellowship program for young social entrepreneurs. He worked with the Fellows to produce a multicultural concert involving local youth groups; currently, he remains involved with the program in role of an advisor.

# Salarias sexfilum

Salarias sexfilum (commonly known as Spalding's Blenny) is a species of combtooth blenny found in the western central Pacific ocean, particularly the shallow fringing reefs and tide pools of Australia and Indonesia.

## Description

The Spalding's Blenny is a greenish yellow and brown fish, peppered with spots across the upper half of the fish. It has double vertical brown bands along its belly and a pink ocellus on its chest. A typical adult is about 9-12 cm (3.5-4.7 in), with a crest on its head and a filmform tentacle right at the nostril, with elaborate cirri at the head.
The dorsal fin extends gradually higher than the beginning of the posterior third of the soft portion, creating an arch that seems to be continuous with the caudal fin. The pectoral fin nearly extends to the vent of the fish.

## Habitat

This species is found in parts of Western Australia, Northern Territory, and a small fraction of Queensland, where it is found between Exmouth Gulf and Gulf of Carpentaria. The blenny is also found commonly in Indonesia, particularly amongst the Lesser Sundra Islands and the Arafura sea.
