# Menodji Clarisse

Menodji Clarisse (born 1994), professionally known as Melodji, is a Chadian singer who was the lead vocalist of Matania, a group composing five female singers.

## Early life

Menodji Clarisse was born in 1994 in N'Djamena, the capital of Chad. As a child, she learned to sing in her church choir.

## Career

Melodji became a part of the band Matania in 2001, taking the role of lead vocalist. The band placed an emphasis on speaking out against domestic violence and demanding equal treatment for women in marriage, in part due to their somewhat unique situation of being a popular musical group composed of a majority of women. The group sings in French, Arabic, and Saba, and Melodji contributes with English vocals, resulting in the group being referred to as a cultural melting pot. The group, and Melodji in particular, are influenced by Rhythm and Blues, traditional Afro beats, and contemporary American pop music.
Following the success of Matania in 2007 due to their performance at the CEN-SAD Games in Niger, Melodji struck out on her own as a solo artist. Her popularity continued to increase, and she released her first solo album in 2014. Called Tah Hor Ndal (Around the Fire), the album was nominated at the Cameroon Academy Awards. That same year, Melodji was a finalist at the RFI Prix Découverte.

# Leptocephaly

Leptocephaly is a rare form of complex craniosynostosis (usually considered a form of scaphocephaly) in which the sagittal and metopic suture simultaneously close. Leptocephaly is characterized by equal narrowing of the head (from full sagittal fusion) and a tall and narrow (rather than long) head shape. Leptocephaly is usually nonsyndromic, but has been seen in individual cases such as Neu-Laxova syndrome.
The term leptocephaly has also been used (erroneously) to refer to microcephaly.
# Leptoceletes pallidus

Leptoceletes pallidus is a species of net-winged beetle in the family Lycidae. It is found in North America.

# Leo Baumgratz

Leo Baumgratz (who died in 1991) was a Swiss footballer who played as midfielder.
Baumgratz joined FC Basel's first team in their 1948–49 season under player-coach Ernst Hufschmid. After playing in one test match Baumgratz played his domestic league debut for the club in the home game at the Landhof on 27 November 1948 as Basel drew 1–1 with Urania Genève Sport. He scored his first goal for his club four weeks later on 26 December in a Swiss Cup match against Concordia Basel. Basel won 1–0 and, therefore, it was the decisive goal.
A match for Baumgratz to remember was the league match on 29 May 1949 away against La Chaux-de-Fonds. In the 20th minute he scored an own goal and two minutes later he equalised with his first league goal for his club. Basel won the match 4–2 at full time.
Between the years 1948 and 1951 Baumgratz played a total of 25 games for Basel scoring just those two goals. 16 of these games were in the Nationalliga A, three in the Swiss Cup and six were friendly games.
Following his time in Basel Baumgratz moved on to play for Concordia Basel, who at that time played in a lower league.
# Symphony No. 2 (Milhaud)

The Symphony No. 2, Op. 247, is a work for orchestra by French composer Darius Milhaud. It was written in the U.S. in 1944 on a commission from the Koussevitzky Music Foundations in memory of Serge Koussevitzky's second wife Natalie, who had died in 1942. The premiere of the work was played by the Boston Symphony Orchestra in 1946, with the composer himself conducting.
Milhaud's Second Symphony is in five movements, with a total running time of about 27 minutes. The titles of the movements, which are more character descriptions than tempo markings, are as follows:
* Paisible (approx. 5'40")
* Mystérieux (approx. 5'25")
* Douloureux (approx. 8'25")
* Avec Sérénité (approx. 3'15")
* Alleluia (approx. 4'10")
This symphony (not to be confused with Milhaud's 1918 Chamber Symphony No. 2 "Pastorale," op. 49) is published by Heugel & Cie.

# Hahns Peak Village, Colorado

Hahns Peak Village is an unincorporated community in Routt County, Colorado, United States. The village is located 7 miles (11 km) north of Clark on Routt County Road 129, and 0.5 miles (0.8 km) east-southeast of Steamboat Lake State Park. The community is named for Hahns Peak, which 2.7 miles (4.3 km) north-northeast.

## History

The settlement was established as a placer gold mining camp around 1865. Three men, Joseph Hahn, William Doyle, and George Way, lead a group of fifty miners to the area. Hahn, an immigrant from Germany, was elected as the leader of the mining district. After the summer most of the miners left the area for the winter leaving behind Hahn, Doyle, and Way. Way was supposed to head out for supplies in October and return to the camp, but he never returned for unknown reasons. The greatly weakened Doyle and Hahn left in the spring, but Hahn died during the journey.
The early mining history makes Hans Peak Village the oldest permanent settlement in the northern part of Routt County. At the mine's peak around the turn of the 20th century, Hahns Peak Village was home to several thousand people. By 1905, larger mining companies had brought miners to the village. However, while gold was prominent in the mine, it proved too difficult to extract efficiently. Combined with the fact that the nearest smelting facility was over 30 miles away, the mine struggled to stay afloat, and the villages near collapse followed.
In 1912, Hahns Peak Village lost its county seat status to Steamboat Springs, which it had held since 1877. Attempts by ranchers to settle in the area were impeded by harsh winters, preventing any significant revival of the village. The establishment of the nearby Steamboat Lake State Park in 1967, along with its annual influx of nearly 400 thousand visitors, has played a crucial role in sustaining the community.
The Hahns Peak post office operated from 1877 until 1941. It is now served by the post office in nearby Clark.
An 1800s cabin, the Wither Cabin, is restored and now sits on Main Street. The Hahns Peak Schoolhouse, which operated from 1912 to 1943, is also on Main Street. The school is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
# Hahn–Exton q-Bessel function

In mathematics, the Hahn–Exton q-Bessel function or the third Jackson q-Bessel function is a q-analog of the Bessel function, and satisfies the Hahn-Exton q-difference equation (Swarttouw (1992)). This function was introduced by Hahn (1953) in a special case and by Exton (1983) in general.
The Hahn–Exton q-Bessel function is given by
    $J_{\nu }^{(3)}(x;q)={\frac {x^{\nu }(q^{\nu +1};q)_{\infty }}{(q;q)_{\infty }}}\sum _{k\geq 0}{\frac {(-1)^{k}q^{k(k+1)/2}x^{2k}}{(q^{\nu +1};q)_{k}(q;q)_{k}}}={\frac {(q^{\nu +1};q)_{\infty }}{(q;q)_{\infty }}}x^{\nu }_{1}\phi _{1}(0;q^{\nu +1};q,qx^{2}).$
$\phi$ is the basic hypergeometric function.

## Properties
### Zeros

Koelink and Swarttouw proved that $J_{\nu }^{(3)}(x;q)$ has infinite number of real zeros. They also proved that for $\nu >-1$ all non-zero roots of $J_{\nu }^{(3)}(x;q)$ are real (Koelink and Swarttouw (1994)). For more details, see Abreu, Bustoz & Cardoso (2003). Zeros of the Hahn-Exton q-Bessel function appear in a discrete analog of Daniel Bernoulli's problem about free vibrations of a lump loaded chain (Hahn (1953), Exton (1983))

### Derivatives

For the (usual) derivative and q-derivative of $J_{\nu }^{(3)}(x;q)$, see Koelink and Swarttouw (1994). The symmetric q-derivative of $J_{\nu }^{(3)}(x;q)$ is described on Cardoso (2016).

### Recurrence Relation

The Hahn–Exton q-Bessel function has the following recurrence relation (see Swarttouw (1992)):
    $J_{\nu +1}^{(3)}(x;q)=\left({\frac {1-q^{\nu }}{x}}+x\right)J_{\nu }^{(3)}(x;q)-J_{\nu -1}^{(3)}(x;q).$

## Alternative Representations
### Integral Representation

The Hahn–Exton q-Bessel function has the following integral representation (see Ismail and Zhang (2018)):
    $J_{\nu }^{(3)}(z;q)={\frac {z^{\nu }}{\sqrt {\pi \log q^{-2}}}}\int _{-\infty }^{\infty }{\frac {\exp \left({\frac {x^{2}}{\log q^{2}}}\right)}{(q,-q^{\nu +1/2}e^{ix},-q^{1/2}z^{2}e^{ix};q)_{\infty }}}\,dx.$
    $(a_{1},a_{2},\cdots ,a_{n};q)_{\infty }:=(a_{1};q)_{\infty }(a_{2};q)_{\infty }\cdots (a_{n};q)_{\infty }.$

### Hypergeometric Representation

The Hahn–Exton q-Bessel function has the following hypergeometric representation (see Daalhuis (1994)):
    $J_{\nu }^{(3)}(x;q)=x^{\nu }{\frac {(x^{2}q;q)_{\infty }}{(q;q)_{\infty }}}\ _{1}\phi _{1}(0;x^{2}q;q,q^{\nu +1}).$
This converges fast at $x\to \infty$. It is also an asymptotic expansion for $\nu \to \infty$.
# Sylvie Grumbach

Sylvie Grumbach (born 22 March 1947) is the creative director and founder of 2e Bureau. She has been a fashion editor and press officer for various designers. Prior to this she worked as press attache at Le Palace, a nightclub in Paris.

## Biography

Grumbach was born on 22 March 1947 in Paris. She is the grand-daughter of a Parisian fashion designer and Didier Grumbach's sister. Her grandfather, Cerf Mendes-France, founded the clothing company C.Mendes in 1902. Her maternal uncle is Pierre Mendes France, former president of the Council of the Fourth Republic.
