Alhambra Airport also called the Western Air College Airport was an airport in Alhambra, California from 1928 to 1946. The Airport was founded by the Western Air Express on 157-acre of land. The airport had a single 2,830-foot asphalt northeast–southwest runway. The Western Air Express built a unique hangar, that was a 44-foot hexagonal shape able to work on 6 aircraft at once. Western Air Express also build an air terminal building and a conventional hangar. Western Air Express at the opening operated Fokker F-32 from the airport. Western Air Express held a large dedication ceremony on April 17, 1930 for the new air terminal. The US Forest Service operated a patrol aircraft out of the airport to keep an eye out on the nearby San Gabriel Mountains. Just one year after the dedication ceremony, both Western Air Express and Transcontinental, which also had flights out of the airport, moved to the Burbank Airport and Glendale Grand Central Airport. With no scheduled flights, the Alhambra Airport became a private airport. A Western Air College flight school opened at the airport and some other small commercial operations. With Hollywood only 15 miles away the Alhambra Airport became a popular spot to shoot movies. The 1936 movie 13 Hours by Air directed by Mitchell Leisen and starring Fred MacMurray and Joan Bennett was shot at the airport. In 1939 the film Danger Flight was shot at the airport, directed by Howard Bretherton, starring John Trent as Tailspin Tommy Tompkins, Marjorie Reynolds, Milburn Stone and Jason Robards Sr. The film featured young aviation enthusiasts in a model club. The four-seat cabin monoplane, Harlow PJC-2 designed by Max B. Harlow was built at the Alhambra Airport in 1937. To support the build-up of the World War 2 effort, the Alhambra Airport was used as a depot for Lockheed Corporation military airplanes, many P-38 Lightning fighters aircraft came, were packed and departed the depot on the Lend Lease Program. In 1941 the Flying Wild and They Met in Bombay were shot at the airport. In 1942 the movie Flight Lieutenant was shot at the airport. In 1943 the airport was sold to the city. Harlow Aircraft Company purchased the airport in 1945. Harlow Aircraft Company had been building small aircraft at the airport since 1936 in small qualities. In 1946 Harlow Aircraft Company sold the airport to real estate developers, the north part of the site is now commercial property and the remaining is houses. The Airport was located at what is now Valley Boulevard to the north, New Ave to the east, Almansor Street to the west and the Interstate 10 to the south. Western Air Express later became part of Western Airlines. Western Air College Airport also operated out of the Rosemead Airport for some years. Western Air Express operated out of the Vail Airport in Montebello before moving its operation to the Alhambra Airport.

# Lawrence Flick State Hospital

Lawrence Flick State Hospital was a state mental health hospital near Cresson, Pennsylvania that had several different names and uses before becoming defunct and converted into a prison in the 1980s.
It is located on Old Route 22, approximately one mile east of the town of Cresson in Cambria County and has a rich history of service to the health and welfare of the citizens of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Beginning with the donation of the land by steel tycoon and philanthropist Andrew Carnegie and prescribed by the Act of Assembly in June 1910, the Cresson Tuberculosis Sanatorium was opened in 1916. The location was considered as ideal due to the abundance of fresh air and the treatments used to combat the disease. The present administration building was built in the European style with gargoyles on the tower and the crests of Scottish clans cut into the sandstone as a reminder of Mr. Carnegie's heritage.
With the introduction of new drugs and treatments for tuberculosis, the need for sanatoriums declined. In December 1956 the facility was incorporated into the Lawrence F. Flick State Hospital being run by the Department of Public Welfare to treat the mentally ill. The facility remained in operation until December 1982.

## Cresson Tuberculosis Sanatorium (1916–1964)

The facility was used at first as a treatment center for tuberculosis patients as the mountain air was supposedly good for treatment. Construction on the facility started in 1912 and took four years to complete. The land on which this facility sat was donated by steel tycoon Andrew Carnegie.

## Current day and preservation (1987–present)

* The graves of deceased patients were turned into a memorial outside the facility by then-Pennsylvania First Lady, Ginny Thornburgh. The memorial is maintained by DOC Maintenance Employees and inmates at the facility.
* The facility re-opened in 1987 as State Correctional Institution – Cresson and operated as such until 2013.
# USS Reaper (AMc-96)

USS Reaper (AMc-96) was an Accentor-class coastal minesweeper acquired by the U.S. Navy for the hazardous task of removing mines from minefields laid in the water to prevent ships from passing.
Reaper was laid down 1 June 1941 by Noank Shipbuilding Co., Noank, Connecticut, launched 15 April 1942; and placed in service 14 November 1942.

## World War II service

During World War II, Reaper conducted minesweeping patrols in the Caribbean, and operated out of San Juan, Puerto Rico. Placed out of service 15 November 1945, she was struck from the Navy list on the 28th and sold 19 September 1946 by the Maritime Commission at Charleston, South Carolina, to Harry Mogck of Cape May Boat Works, Cape May, New Jersey.
# Kurt Stöpel

# Anisodactylus ovularis

Anisodactylus ovularis is a species of ground beetle in the family Carabidae. It is found in North America.
# Trimethylsilylacetylene

Trimethylsilylacetylene is the organosilicon compound with the formula (CH$_3$)$_3$SiC$_2$H. A colorless liquid, "tms acetylene", as it is also called, is used as a source of "HC$_2$$^−$" in organic synthesis.

## Use

Trimethylsilylacetylene is used in Sonogashira couplings as the equivalent of acetylene. Using this protected alkyne, as opposed to acetylene itself, prevents further coupling reactions. The trimethylsilyl group can then be cleaved off with TBAF or DBU to form phenylacetylene derivatives. Trimethylsilylacetylene is also used to synthesize diphenylacetylene derivatives in a one-pot Sonogashira coupling, in which the phenylacetylene derivative reacts with a second aryl halide after in-situ deprotection. A less expensive alternative reagent is 2-methylbut-3-yn-2-ol, which after alkynylation is deprotected with base.
Trimethylsilylacetylene is commercially available. It may also be prepared in a manner similar to other silyl compounds: deprotonation of acetylene with a Grignard reagent, followed by reaction with trimethylsilyl chloride.
Trimethylsilylacetylene is a precursor to 1,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)buta-1,3-diyne, a protected form of 1,3-butadiyne.

## History

Trimethylsilylacetylene was first synthesized in 1959 by Heinz Günter Viehe. He reduced chloro(trimethylsilyl)acetylene by reaction with phenyllithium in diethyl ether and proceeded with subsequent hydrolysis.

# Pyrus syriaca

Pyrus syriaca is a deciduous tree in the Rosaceae family. It is referred to by the common name Syrian pear. It is the only pear species which grows in the wild in Lebanon, Turkey, Syria, Israel, and the Palestinian territories.
The Syrian pear is a protected plant in Israel. It grows in unsalty soil, usually in Mediterranean scrub, in west Syria, in the Galilee and the Golan.
In the months of March and April, the tree blossoms with white flowers. The fruit ripen in the autumn in the months of September and October. The fruit is edible, though not as good as the European Pear, mostly because of hard, stone like objects found in the skin. The ripe fruit falls to the ground and when it starts to rot, the smell attracts wild boars. The boars eat the fruit and distribute the seeds.
# Langley Porter Psychiatric Hospital

Langley Porter Psychiatric Hospital (LPPH) is a psychiatric teaching hospital, part of the Psychiatry Department at the University of California, San Francisco. It was located on the Parnassus campus of UCSF until 2023, when it moved to the UCSF Medical Center at Mount Zion.
Langley Porter Clinic was the first psychiatric institute in California, and is the oldest facility of the UCSF Psychiatry Department.

## History

The foundation stone of the hospital was laid in 1941. The hospital opened in 1942 with 100 beds, and was completed in 1943. The hospital was first known by the name "Langley Porter Clinic", which later changed to the "Langley Porter Neuropsychiatric Institute", and later again to "Langley Porter Psychiatric Institute", or informally, "LPPI". In 1948, "the clinic's director, Karl Bowman, was transforming it into one of the world's most important hubs for research into transgender sexual identities." It was also "an important early center for the development of psychedelic therapy."
The LPPI became part of the medical center's accreditation in 1962. It was named after Dr. Robert Langley Porter, a prominent and influential dean of UCSF.
The eminent psychologist Paul Ekman worked here from 1960 to 2004. Anthropologist Gregory Bateson, a former OSS officer; and poet Weldon Kees also worked here in the 1950s with psychiatrist Jurgen Ruesch. During WWII, Virginia Prince, a trans woman and pharmacologist who became "an early transgender activist" also worked at the clinic.
Langley Porter Psychiatric Hospital relocated to a renovated space on the seventh floor of the UCSF Mount Zion Medical Center in 2023. The former LPPI building at UCSF's Parnassus campus (dating to 1942) was then demolished to make way for a new 15-story, 324-bed hospital for the UCSF Medical Center, which is estimated to cost $4.3 billion and open in 2030.
