USS Alpha (SP-586) was a motor yacht that served as a patrol boat in the United States Navy during World War I

## History

Alpha, a 56-foot (17 m) motor yacht, was built in 1911 at Riverside, Rhode Island, by the Narragansett Bay Yacht Yard. She was purchased by the Navy on 19 May 1917 from Joel Fischer and commissioned that same day.
Assigned to the 2d Naval District section patrol, Alpha patrolled the waters of southern Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. The motorboat served the Navy through the end of World War I and into 1919.
On 23 December 1918, Alpha suffered a fire while at Melville, Rhode Island. The Navy tug Mariner steamed from Newport to assist Alpha and her crew.
Her name was struck from the Navy list on 17 May 1919, and she was sold to Arthur Palmer of Quincy, Massachusetts, on 28 August 1919. Her ultimate fate is unknown.

Victim of Romance is singer and songwriter Michelle Phillips's first and only solo album, and was released in February 1977 (see 1977 in music).

No Depression wrote that Phillips's "reported lack of confidence in her solo voice proved unfounded as she showed off a command of a spotlight that was previously diffused by her talented groupmates." Billboard called Victim of Romance a "thoroughly delightful collection of Spectoresque rockers and ballads, dreamy blues, and melodic upbeat pop flavored tunes."

## Biography

In 1918, he graduated as a Bachelor in Biological Sciences and Letters and secured a scholarship to continue his studies at the Instituto Normal Superior in La Paz, where he specialized in Biology and Chemistry. He graduated in 1922. On his vacations in Cochabamba he went for long walks by gathering plants, of which he soon recorded their characteristics in books and journals at the Municipal Library of La Paz. At that time, Cardenas had met Swedish botanist Erik Asplund, who had also shown a keen interest in studying the plants in Bolivia. Asplund played an important role in enhancing his knowledge of botany and was an early mentor for him.
By May 1922, Cárdenas was already professor in the Special Natural Sciences and Chemistry, being an auxiliary senior instructor and later obtained a title at the Instituto Normal Superior de La Paz.
In his career, over a 40 or 50-year period, Cárdenas classified 6,500 species of the flora of Bolivia, and described 180 new species and 16 varieties of cactus. He also registered 26 types of Solanum tuberosum with six varieties.

# Waldorf-Astoria-Zigarettenfabrik

The Waldorf-Astoria-Zigarettenfabrik (English:Waldorf-Astoria Cigarette Factory) was a German tobacco company, established in Hamburg and Stuttgart by Emil Molt and several other partners on January 1, 1906. It was named after Johann Jakob Astor, born in 1763 in Walldorf (in present-day Baden-Wurttemberg), who after emigrating to the United States became the richest man in said country.
The company proved successful; it employed around 1,000 people in 1919. However, it experienced difficulties in the second half of the 1920s due to outdated production-methods and the global economic situation, and a competing trust took over a large portion of the shares. In 1929, the company was liquidated. The Waldorf-Astoria tobacco brand, with the portrait of John Jacob Astor, was taken over by a different company and is owned as of 2018 by Reemtsma.
Waldorf-Astoria became famous for giving its name to Waldorf education. On September 7, 1919, Emil Molt established the first Waldorf school in cooperation with Rudolf Steiner. It was a school in Stuttgart for the children of the Waldorf-Astoria employees, and based upon Steiner's ideas.

# Martin Mijtens the Elder

Peter Martin Mijtens the Elder, also spelled Meytens or Mytens (1648- 1736) was a Dutch-Swedish painter. Trained in the Netherlands, he worked principally in the Dutch Republic.

## Biography

He was born at The Hague in the Dutch Republic into a family of artists. His father was Isaac Mijtens (1602-1666), the son of an art dealer and saddler from Brussels. His father and his son Martin van Meytens, known as "The Younger" were both painters. His uncle Daniël Mijtens, and his cousins Daniel Mijtens the Younger and Johannes Mytens were painters as well.
He went to Stockholm with his older brother Dietrich Mijtens (d. 1679) where his portraits were well received. In 1681, he decided to stay and shortly after was married to Johanna de Bruyn.
His earliest works were very simple compared with nobleman David Klöcker Ehrenstrahl who was the most popular portrait painter at that time. To maintain his clientele, Mijtens' works gradually became more colorful and dramatic, although it has been said that he sacrificed character.
Many of his paintings were left unsigned, which has often led to them being confused with Ehrenstrahl's work, although certain small stylistic differences can be perceived. Despite the competition from Ehrenstrahl and his nephew David von Krafft (both of whom became court painters), he earned a sufficient income to amass a significant art collection. He had several students, including Georg Desmarées and Lucas von Breda. He also trained his son, who later went to Vienna and adopted the surname "Van Meytens".
He apparently suffered from some sort of senility or insanity in his later years. He died in Stockholm during 1736. After his death, his collection was sold to Prussian diplomat Count Gustav Adolf von Gotter [de]. Later, much of it came into the possession of Charles Eugene, Duke of Württemberg.
Posthumous criticism was harsh. Swedish diplomat Carl Gustaf Tessin called him "an old paint-spoiler" (färgskämmare). He was essentially forgotten until 1841, when his work was reevaluated by literary and art critic Nils Arfwidsson, who wrote about him in Frey [sv], a magazine devoted to the arts and sciences.
