## History

The Lower Bhavani Project was the first major irrigation project initiated in India, after independence, in 1948. It was completed by 1955 and opened for use in 1956. The dam was constructed at a cost of ₹210 million (US$2.4 million).

## Dimensions

The dam is 8 km (5.0 mi) long by 40 m (130 ft) high. The full reservoir level is 120 ft (37 m) and the dam has a capacity of 32.8×10^$^9$ cu ft (930×10^$^6$ m$^3$).

## Hydrography

Bhavanisagar dam is constructed on the Bhavani River. The dam receives water from two main catchment areas in the Western Ghats. The water is fed into the Bhavani river known as Upper Bhavani. The eastern catchment area includes the Upper Bhavani, Avalanche and Emerald lakes, Kundha, Gedhai, Pillur and Nellithurai . The western catchment area includes Portimund, Parson's valley, Pykara, Glenmorgan, Singara, Maravakandy, Moyar and Thengumarahada. The dam is fed by both Southwest and Northeast monsoons.
The dam feeds water into two canals, Lower Bhavani Project Canal and Kalingarayan Canal. The Kalingarayan canal feeds Thadapalli and Arakkankottai channels and the LBP canal feeds the Thadapalli and Arakankottai channels.
| Canal | Ayacut area |
| Lower Bhavani Project Canal | 103 thousand acres (420 km$^2$) |

# Running Water (horse)

Running Water (foaled 1903 at Runnymede Farm near Paris, Kentucky) was an American Champion Thoroughbred racemare.

## Breeding

Running Water was sired by the 1888 Belmont Stakes winner Sir Dixon who also sired 1905 Kentucky Derby winner Agile and the good filly, Blue Girl. Running Water's mare was Breakwater whose sire was Hindoo, a three-time U.S. Champion, the 1881 Kentucky Derby winner and a U.S. Racing Hall of Fame inductee.

## Racing career

Owned and trained by Woodford Clay, he raced Running Water at age two and for most of her three-year-old season until selling her on August 8, 1906 to trainer Thomas Welsh and the Newcastle Stable, a racing and breeding partnership made up of Andrew Miller, Francis R. Bishop and Blair Painter.
The American Co-Champion Three-Year-Old Filly of 1906, Running Water had a redoubtable career in Thoroughbred racing during which she won top races against the best competition including beating male opponents on a regular basis. In winning the Merchants and Citizens Handicap she set a new Saratoga Race Course track record while beating the highly touted John Madden-trained colt Dandelion as well as Preakness Stakes and Brooklyn Derby winner Cairngorm. In the Saratoga Cup, run at a distance of a mile and three-quarters, she defeated the likes of Travers Stakes winner Frank Gill and Suburban Handicap winner Nealon.

## Broodmare in France

Due to the Hart–Agnew Law, racing was shut down in all of New York state in 1911 and 1912. As a result, in 1910 Running Water had to be sent to American Herman Duryea's Haras du Gazon stud farm in Bazoches-au-Houlme in France so she could be bred. Running Water's French-born offspring included Boyne, Breakwater, Mayflower, Pierre Qui Roule, Rappahannock, Reprise, Rochebelle, and Runlad.

# Battle of the Florida Mountains

The Battle of the Florida Mountains was an action of the Apache Wars. Forces involved were Chiricahua Apache warriors and mounted Confederate States militia. The battle occurred in a pass of the Florida Mountains within Confederate Arizona, now southwestern New Mexico. The engagement occurred sometime around the middle of August 1861.

## Background

Mangas Coloradas, chief of the Gila River Apaches, fought Confederate soldiers throughout Arizona's rebellious period. The Arizona Guards, a force of Confederate militia recruited in Traditional Arizona, were in action almost immediately after their induction into service on August 1, 1861. In early August, a group of Arizonans known as the Ake Party were traveling from the Tucson region to the western side of the Rio Grande near Mesilla. Most of them had left their town of Tubac after the siege of their old presidio. By mid-August, they had nearly made it to the river when they were ambushed by a force of Apache warriors. This engagement became known as the Battle of Cookes Canyon. Word of the engagement and the plunder of hundreds of heads of livestock led to the Arizona Guards' involvement in this Apache campaign.

## Battle

As soon as Thomas J. Mastin, captain of the Arizona Guards, received the Ake Party's distress call, he realized that a nighttime pursuit would likely lead to an ambush of the pursuers. Captain Mastin ordered the pursuit to begin the next morning. Mastin did not head for Cooke's Canyon, however, as he had a hunch as to where the Apaches were headed with their stolen property. Instead, he ordered the militia to proceed to the passes over the Florida Mountains, near the Mexican border. Mastin knew that the Apaches could not travel very fast with stolen livestock.
The captain and 35 of his men arrived at the base of the mountains early the next day. There they settled themselves in the foothills and awaited the fleeing Apaches. Mastin's hunch had paid off. The Arizona Guards occupied their new post in the Florida Mountains for only a short time when their pickets reported the approach of the Native warriors. The Arizonans charged the Apaches as they entered the pass, and a running fight ensued. The Apaches were routed, and much of the livestock was recaptured. As many as eight of the Apaches were killed, with no loss to the Confederate forces.
The Arizona Guards pursued the Apaches back to Cooke's Canyon, where they attempted to regroup. A small skirmish was fought with no casualties inflicted to either side. The Apaches retreated to their usual strongholds in northern Mexico.

## Aftermath

Governor John R. Baylor heard of the Arizona Guard's victory in the Florida Mountains; however, the success was overshadowed by two defeats at the hands of Mescalero Apaches within ten days of the Florida Mountains battle. These engagements occurred at and near Fort Davis, Texas, so Baylor's men were not involved in the fighting. Captain Mastin would go on to lead the Arizona Guards to victory at the Battle of Pinos Altos, where he was mortally wounded.
# Nosivolo River

The Nosivolo River is a river in eastern Madagascar and a primary tributary of the Mangoro River. It begins east of Fandriana. The village of Marolambo, capital of the Marolambo District in the Atsinanana region, is located along the river at the junction with the Sandranamby River.
It is an important river in Madagascar due to its biodiversity (including the cichlids Katria katria and Oxylapia polli, and Malagasy rainbowfish), which has spurred efforts to protect it. It was designed the first river Ramsar site in the country in 2010.
The primary tributaries of the Nosivolo are the Sandranamby River (which joins near Marolambo), Sahadinta, Manandriana, and Sahanao.
# Jackson's Sawmill Covered Bridge

The Jackson's Sawmill Covered Bridge or Eichelberger's Covered Bridge is a covered bridge that spans the West Branch of the Octoraro Creek in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. A county-owned and maintained bridge, its official designation is the West Octoraro #1 Bridge. The bridge is purportedly the only covered bridge in the county that is not built perpendicular to the stream it crosses due to the placement of the sawmill on one side of the bridge and the rock formations faced by the builders on the other side.
The bridge has a single span, wooden, double Burr arch trusses design with the addition of steel hanger rods. The deck is made from oak planks. It is painted red, the traditional color of Lancaster County covered bridges, on both the inside and outside. Both approaches to the bridge are painted in the traditional white color.
The bridge's WGCB Number is 38-36-33. In 1980 it was added to the National Register of Historic Places as structure number 80003520, but it was removed from the Register in 1986. It is located at 39°53′49.2″N 76°4′48″W﻿ / ﻿39.897000°N 76.08000°W﻿ / 39.897000; -76.08000 (39.89700, -76.08000). The bridge lies in Bart Township, 3.25 mi (5.23 km) to the east of Quarryville and 1.5 mi (2.4 km) south of Pennsylvania Route 372 on Mt Pleasant Road. Due to its remote location in an isolated part of the county, it is seen less than many of the county's other covered bridges that are closer to the major populations centers such as Lancaster.

## History

The bridge was built in 1878 by John Smith and Samuel Stauffer at a cost of $2,410. In 1985 it was washed mostly intact from its foundations and deposited a short distance downstream in a flood. It was repaired and reset at a cost to the county of $75,000. During the rebuilding, the bridge was raised 3 feet (0.91 m) to protect it against future flooding. As of summer 2006, the bridge was in good conditions, having undergone a recent rehabilitation in May 2005.

# Murder of Minerliz Soriano

On February 28, 1999, the body of 13-year-old Minerliz "Minnie" Soriano was found bound and wrapped inside a garbage bag, dumped inside a garbage dumpster behind a video store in Co-op City section of the Bronx, New York City. She had been strangled and sexually abused, and missing for three days after leaving her middle school. Her case went unsolved for twenty-two years, until Police used advanced DNA technology to help them arrest a suspect in November 2021.
It is the first time in New York City that a case was solved using familial DNA.

## Investigation

The key piece of evidence in the case was a semen stain found on Soriano's sweatshirt which was preserved since 1999. In 2019, the sample was run through the New York State convicted offender DNA database (CODIS) and linked the DNA to the suspect's deceased father. Investigators later obtained a sample of Martinez's DNA and matched the sample to him.

## Accused

After using advanced DNA technology, Joseph Martinez, who goes by "Jupiter Joe" and taught children astronomy was arrested and accused of strangling Soriano between February 24–28, 1999 while sexually assaulting her. He had been connected to the case using a familial DNA link, as his deceased father's DNA was matched to a DNA sample that had been collected from semen on Soriano's sweatshirt. He was arrested on two counts of second-degree murder.
At the time of his arrest, Martinez lived in New Rochelle and previously taught children about astronomy, by setting up a powerful telescope on busy sidewalks and offering views and lessons to those who wanted. Due to his highly public profile many have taken to social media to discuss their shock and disbelief that Martinez could commit such a crime.
