# Choking Man

Choking Man is a 2006 drama film, written and directed by Steve Barron. The film stars Octavio Gómez Berríos and Eugenia Yuan.

## Synopsis

Choking Man is an intense blend of psychological drama and magical realism that encapsulates the contemporary immigrant experience in America. Jorge (Octavio Gómez Berríos) is a morbidly shy Ecuadorian dishwasher toiling away in a shabby diner in Jamaica, Queens run by Rick (Mandy Patinkin). He works all day long in the shadow of the ever-present Heimlich maneuver instruction poster which hangs in the diner kitchen. From his solitary kitchen corner, Jorge gropes mutely for a bond with Amy (Eugenia Yuan), the newly hired Chinese waitress and even though she tries to reciprocate, the gulf that separates them may be too large. On the job he is continually tormented by his coworker Jerry (Aaron Paul) and at home in his Harlem boarding house, under the psychological control of his late uncle, who was truly like a father to him. His uncle was described as being the only caring person in Jorge's life. He battles his inner demons. Set in the vicinity of JFK airport, the most culturally diverse neighborhood in the world, Choking Man captures the feeling of claustrophobia some newcomers to America experience as they struggle to find a place and purpose in this strange land.

# Adam Szentpétery

Szentpétery Ádám (Hungarian pronunciation:; born 24 February 1956) is a Hungarian artist in Slovakia and the Department Head/Professor of the Studio of Contemporary Image at the Faculty of Arts at the Technical University of Košice, Slovakia. He is known primarily for his abstract painting with strong geometrically organized canvases in a highly original manner with a very intense but at the same time refined colorism.

## Life and career

Szentpétery was born in Rožňava, Czechoslovakia. From 1971 to 1975 he studied at the School of Applied Arts in Košice (department of graphic arts). From 1976 to 1982, he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava at the studio of monumental painting in the course taught by Assoc. prof. Dezider Castiglione and Assoc. prof. Ivan Vychlopen. Since 1999 he is the head of the Studio of Contemporary Image at the Faculty of Arts at the Technical University in Košice (since 2004 – associate professor). In 2007 Szentpétery was awarded a “Munkácsy Mihály díj“ (i.e. state prize) in Budapest (Hungary). Nowadays Szentpétery lives and works in Rožňava and Košice.

### Work

"When characterizing the works of the prominent Slovak painter Adam Szentpétery (born in 1956), from the very start it is necessary to emphasize that we shall communicate in the visual language of geometry with strong painting coding. Over the course of the 1980s, geometry became the matrix of his works onto which he places individual art outputs and links. The line, color, and surface are the primary building blocks of his picture system. Although in the course of decades Szentpétery has built a key monolithic painting programme in the field of geometric abstraction forming a unique contribution to the contemporary language of painting in Slovakia, it still remains a solitary phenomenon in the home environment." Vladimír Beskid,

### Exhibitions

Since 1984 until now Szentpétery exhibited his works in numerous solo (21) and group exhibitions (142) around the world, mostly in the countries of the European Union, but his paintings also got exhibited as far as Japan, Korea or Taiwan. The complete list of solo and group exhibitions is available in Adam Szentpétery's catalog.
In 2018 / 2019 Szentpétery exhibited his most recent works at the Danubiana Meulensteen Art Museum.

# Bishop's Nympton

Bishop's Nympton is a village and civil parish in the North Devon district of Devon, England, about three miles east of South Molton. According to the 2021 census the parish had a population of 842. The electoral ward has the same name but covers the village and much of the land to the north-east. The ward population at the 2021 census was 2,182.
It has been the main area for the filming of a 1990s television program called The Passion. It was also home to wildlife filmmaker Johnny Kingdom who is buried in the village cemetery just outside the village.
The tall, 15th-century church tower is a local landmark, and contains a Norman baptismal font, a 15th-century arcade, and a "richly carved" Easter Sepulchre monument generally assumed to commemorate Sir Lewis Pollard (d.1526), Judge of the Common Pleas.
It has also been the location of some dispute over the recent closing of many Post Offices across the UK, and therefore the Post Office in Bishops Nympton has been partially reprieved, following a campaign by villagers and intervention by Devon County Council. From June 2009, the Post Office has been open mornings only, a great improvement on the proposed outreach service. The shop on the premises has been run by volunteers as a community shop, again with support from Devon County Council, as well as the villagers themselves. It has been successful since its opening.
A replacement for the previous (wooden) village hall was built after a long campaign of fund-raising by the villagers. Sources of funding included £15,000 from the parish council, £95,000 from the sale of the village hall, £100,000 from Leader 4 Funding and £17,000 from a section 106 agreement. It was formally opened by Mrs Frances Gunn on Friday, 3 June 2011. The village shop and Post Office moved to a purpose-built part of the new hall in the summer of 2011.

## Historic residences

Ancient historic residences within the parish include:
* Whitechapel Manor, home of the Bassett family
* Grilstone, Bishop's Nympton, home of the Pollard family
# Yuexipotamon

Yuexipotamon is a monotypic genus of freshwater crabs in the subfamily Potamiscinae, found in the Heishiding Nature Reserve in Zhaoqing, south China, and first described in 2014. The only species is Yuexipotamon arcophallus. It superficially resembles Huananpotamon.
Yuexipotamon is a mostly aquatic, about 2 cm wide crab. The natural habitat of Yuexipotamon is small water streams or water-saturated terrain in a tropical/subtropical evergreen forest of broad-leaved plants. In daytime, it can be found under rocks on in Y-shaped burrows with two openings. It shares its habitat with other, larger potamid freshwater crab species, such as Chinapotamon depressum and Nanhaipotamon pingyuanense, that possibly prey on it.
# Ustilago esculenta

Ustilago esculenta is a species of fungus in the Ustilaginaceae, a family of smut fungi. It is in the same genus as the fungi that cause corn smut, loose smut of barley, false loose smut, covered smut of barley, loose smut of oats, and other grass diseases. This species is pathogenic as well, attacking Manchurian wild rice (Zizania latifolia), also known as Manchurian ricegrass, Asian wild rice, and wateroat. This grass is its only known host.
Zizania latifolia is grown as an agricultural crop across Asia. The success of the crop depends on the smut fungus. The grass is not grown for its grain, as are other wild rice species, but for the stems, which swell into juicy galls when infected with the smut. The galled stems are harvested as a vegetable called gau-soon and kal-peh-soon (Pe̍h-ōe-jī: kha-pe̍h-sún; also, gau sun and kah peh sung) and jiaobai in China. Its Japanese name is makomotake. The galled section of the stem is 3 to 4 centimeters (1.2 to 1.6 in) wide and up to 20 centimeters (10 in) long. This vegetable has been grown for centuries in China, at least 400 years. It is popular for its flavor and tender texture. Its taste resembles fresh bamboo shoots. It is eaten raw or cooked. It stays crisp when stir-fried. The main harvesting season is between September and November. This is also typhoon season in parts of Asia, a time when many other vegetables are unavailable. This makes the product more attractive to consumers.
When the fungus invades the host plant it causes it to hypertrophy, its cells increasing in size and number. The fungus destroys the flowering structures of the plant, so it does not make seed. The crop is propagated asexually, by rhizome. New sprouts are infected by spores in the environment, which is generally a paddy. The fungus can also be transmitted directly in the rhizome.
If conditions such as temperature are off, the stem becomes filled with dark-colored, sand-like fungal spores instead of swelling into a vegetable, ruining the crop. Also, there are two known strains of the fungus. One causes the swelling of the stem tissues which produces the vegetable, but the other does not; instead, it fills the stem with spores.
Besides food, the smut-infested stems of the plant have been used medicinally in the treatment of hypertension and heart disease. The spores themselves are used in art. They serve as pigment in Japanese lacquerware, where their brownish color produces a rusty tone to the work. There is a case report of a lacquerware artist who developed hypersensitivity pneumonitis after dusting her work with the spores and then blowing off the excess.
This fungus is federally regulated in the United States. It is thought to pose a threat to North American wild rice. As it prevents the flowering and seed-producing ability of Asian wild rice, it is feared that it could halt grain production if it successfully attacked the local wild rice species. Despite quarantines, a small plot of smut-infested Z. latifolia was discovered growing near Modesto, California, in 1991, and it was destroyed to prevent its spread.

# St Mary's Roman Catholic Cemetery, Wardley

St Mary's Roman Catholic Cemetery or Wardley Cemetery is a cemetery in Wardley, a suburban area of the City of Salford, in Greater Manchester, England. It is close to Swinton, Worsley, and Walkden. It is one of two large cemeteries in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Salford.
Wardley Hall, a grade II listed medieval manor house next to the cemetery, is the official residence of the Roman Catholic bishop of Salford. The cemetery is locally listed as a heritage asset by the Salford City Council and the Greater Manchester Local Heritage List.

## History

The land for the cemetery was purchased by the Catholic church in 1930. The previous owner, Captain Thomas Nuttall, was eager to sell after plans were drawn up for the construction of the large new East Lancashire Road through his estate. The purchase was agreed with Bishop Thomas Henshaw for £7,500, and Wardley Hall and its surrounding land were gifted with the sale. Burials began in 1935.

## Facilities and services

The cemetery has a chapel for conducting services, which dates from 1932. An annual mass is held at the cemetery on the August Bank Holiday. A nearby building outside the gates contains the cemetery office, house and visitor toilets. At the centre of the site is a large circular fountain structure, which has been closed as of 2024.

## Transport

The A580 "East Lancashire Road" runs along the south end of the cemetery. The M60 motorway and A6 road also pass nearby. Moorside railway station is approximately one mile away on foot.

## Notable interments

* Thomas Henshaw (1873–1938), fifth Bishop of Salford
* Geoffrey Burke (1913–1999), Auxiliary Bishop of Salford
* Joe Gladwin (1906–1987), actor
* Sir Geoffrey Alan Hulton (1920–1993), fourth and final baronet of the Hulton Baronetcy

### Second World War graves

The cemetery contains the graves of 15 identified service personnel who died during the Second World War.
Five of the 14 nurses killed in an air raid on Salford Royal Hospital during the Manchester Blitz, four of whom were Irish, were buried together in the cemetery.

# A House Is Built

A House is Built (1929) is the first novel of M. Barnard Eldershaw, the joint pseudonym of Marjorie Barnard and Flora Eldershaw. It is a family saga, centred around mid-nineteenth century Sydney. It was written as a result of their seeing an advertisement for The Bulletin prize. The novel won this prize in 1928, shared with Katharine Susannah Prichard's Coonardoo. It was originally serialised in abridged form in The Bulletin under the title, The Quartermaster.

## Plot

The novel centres on James Hyde and his family. A former Royal Navy quartermaster, in 1837 Hyde sets up a business in early Sydney, inspired by the potential for commerce he sees in new country. He brings with him his young adult children, William, Fanny and Maud. As the novel develops and family fortunes rise, both William and Maud are able to find places for themselves in Sydney society: Maud as the happy mother of a growing family, William as the partner in his father's business. Yet Fanny, hampered by patriarchy and her father and brother's expectations of her femininity, is unable to take on the role in the family business she craves and struggles to find a sense of purpose. Her struggle is echoed in the story of William's wife, Adela, who experiences a loss of agency in her wifely role - a dynamic that fatefully shapes her relationships with her sons, fracturing her relationship with the Hyde's heir, James, and leading to a possessive co-dependence with the second son, Lionel.
The family fortunes grow as the city develops, with historical events such as the Australian gold-fields shaping the narrative and setting of the novel. However, ultimately the family comes dramatically undone, culminating in tragedy.
# Eilean Meadhonach

Eilean Meadhonach is the second largest of the Crowlin Islands, located in the Inner Sound off the island of Skye, Scotland.
It is situated immediately to the west of Eilean Mòr, and to the north is Eilean Beag, both of which it is connected to at low tide. The total area is 77 hectares (190 acres) although Haswell-Smith also provides a figure of 50 hectares (120 acres) for the area. The larger figure may include Eilean Beag and the lower one Eilean Meadhonach alone at high tide.
Crowlin Harbour is at the northern end of the 50-metre-wide (160 ft) gap between Eilean Meadhonach and Eilean Mòr and provides a natural shelter from westerly and southerly winds. It is also possible to anchor in a small pool at the centre of this strait.
Excavations on Eilean Mòr have shown evidence of Mesolithic human settlement and there are the remains of a midden and rock shelter on the north west coast of Eilean Meadhonach. Eilean Mòr has ruined cottages from historic times although there is no evidence of permanent recent habitation on Eilean Meadhonach. Eilean Beag has a light beacon and the remains of an old shieling.
