# Solbiate con Cagno

Solbiate con Cagno (Sulbiaa e Càgn in Comasco) is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Como in the Italian region Lombardy.
It was established on 1 January 2019 by the merging of the municipalities of Solbiate and Cagno.
It consists of 3 fractions: Solbiate, Cagno and Concagno.

## History

The merging proposal was approved by a popular referendum on 10 June 2018.

### Roman Age

There are evidences that the area of Solbiate con Cagno was already inhabited during the Roman Era.
In Cagno a Roman tomb was excavated in 1976 and it was moved to the current graveyard, where it is shown today.

### Middle Age

The name "Solbiate" appears in various documents of the 11th and 12th centuries, where a loco et fundo Solbiate and a Solbiate iusta Binnacum are cited.
Originally part of the Contado del Seprio, it became part of the Ducato di Milano from the XIV century until the beginning of the 19th century.
Solbiate is also cited in the documents Statuti di Como of 1335, when the maintenance of a part of the main road was assigned to the village.
Cagno was already a village during the Langobards period, during which the churches of San Giorgio and San Michele were built. Important for the period is also the chapel of San Rocco, built during the 15th century.
During the 15th century, Cagno was part of the Odescalchi family estate. Later, Cagno was also part of the Ducato di Milano.
# Ratskin

Ratskin is a 1929 animated cartoon released by Columbia Pictures starring Krazy Kat. It is the first cartoon to be released by Columbia Pictures and the first Krazy Kat cartoon released with sound.

## Plot

While Krazy, his horse and his wagon sleep, Krazy Kat wakes up because of his horse's snore and, thanks to the horse's snoring, Krazy realizes that they are late for hunting time. They wake up and Krazy Kat hunts for one turkey. He tries to shoot with his gun a turkey, but his attempt fails. He decides to look for another one, and finds and shoots with his gun what he thinks is turkey, but turns out to be a Native American instead. The Indian chases Krazy and gets caught. An anamorphic pole ties Krazy up, and the Indians light a fire below him. Krazy manages to escape from the Indians, but then the Indians start shooting arrows at him. Krazy finds his gun and uses it as a record player, and the Indians start dancing. A female Indian wants to kiss Krazy, but he hits her with his gun instead. All of the Indians get angry and try to get Krazy, but Krazy escapes from the crowd, dismantles his gun, and uses the Indians (now huddled in a circle, not realizing Krazy had escaped) as a record player.

## Music

The music in the title sequence is called Me-Ow, a 1918 composition by Mel B. Kaufman. It would be used in some subsequent short films of the series until Slow Beau.

## Availability

Ratskin has yet to be released on any home video format. It does however, circulate through a bootleg recording of an ASIFA screening, the only time the cartoon was publicly shown since its original release.

# Flemings (supermarkets)

Flemings was a chain of discount supermarkets in Sydney, Australia and surrounding areas.
The first Flemings stores were opened in 1930 by Jim Fleming Sr. and George Fleming. They initially traded under the name "E.L. Lakin". Following World War II, the name changed to "Fleming's Fabulous Food Stores" and there were 100 stores.
In June 1960, Jim Fleming Jr. and his father sold their 55 Flemings stores to Woolworths Limited for $10 million. In the early 1970s, Jim Fleming Jr. acquired Warman's Stores in New South Wales. Fleming gave it a new name, Jewel Food Stores, and pushed it into the same discount end of the grocery retailing business as Flemings.
The final "Flemings Food Stores" logo was launched in the early 1990s . From the late 1990s, Flemings stores were internally rebranded to Woolworths featuring the same marketing materials and the same home brand products. The external branding didn't change until the late 2000s. Some Flemings stores closed and the remaining were rebranded as Woolworths or Woolworths Metro. The last of these were the Pendle Hill store which was refurbished and rebranded Woolworths in late 2009. Umina Beach on the Central Coast closed on 17 June 2010 and was replaced by a Woolworths, opposite the old Flemings store. The Bexley North store was rebadged as a Woolworths Metro store in 2017. The last Flemings store in Jannali closed on 19 May 2020 and was replaced by a Woolworths Metro.
# Triangulation

In trigonometry and geometry, triangulation is the process of determining the location of a point by forming triangles to the point from known points.

## Applications
### In surveying

Specifically in surveying, triangulation involves only angle measurements at known points, rather than measuring distances to the point directly as in trilateration; the use of both angles and distance measurements is referred to as triangulateration.

### In computer vision

Computer stereo vision and optical 3D measuring systems use this principle to determine the spatial dimensions and the geometry of an item. Basically, the configuration consists of two sensors observing the item. One of the sensors is typically a digital camera device, and the other one can also be a camera or a light projector. The projection centers of the sensors and the considered point on the object's surface define a (spatial) triangle. Within this triangle, the distance between the sensors is the base b and must be known. By determining the angles between the projection rays of the sensors and the basis, the intersection point, and thus the 3D coordinate, is calculated from the triangular relations.

## History

Triangulation today is used for many purposes, including surveying, navigation, metrology, astrometry, binocular vision, model rocketry and, in the military, the gun direction, the trajectory and distribution of fire power of weapons.
The use of triangles to estimate distances dates to antiquity. In the 6th century BC, about 250 years prior to the establishment of the Ptolemaic dynasty, the Greek philosopher Thales is recorded as using similar triangles to estimate the height of the pyramids of ancient Egypt. He measured the length of the pyramids' shadows and that of his own at the same moment, and compared the ratios to his height (intercept theorem). Thales also estimated the distances to ships at sea as seen from a clifftop by measuring the horizontal distance traversed by the line-of-sight for a known fall, and scaling up to the height of the whole cliff. Such techniques would have been familiar to the ancient Egyptians. Problem 57 of the Rhind papyrus, a thousand years earlier, defines the seqt or seked as the ratio of the run to the rise of a slope, i.e. the reciprocal of gradients as measured today. The slopes and angles were measured using a sighting rod that the Greeks called a dioptra, the forerunner of the Arabic alidade. A detailed contemporary collection of constructions for the determination of lengths from a distance using this instrument is known, the Dioptra of Hero of Alexandria (c. 10–70 AD), which survived in Arabic translation; but the knowledge became lost in Europe until in 1615 Snellius, after the work of Eratosthenes, reworked the technique for an attempt to measure the circumference of the earth. In China, Pei Xiu (224–271) identified "measuring right angles and acute angles" as the fifth of his six principles for accurate map-making, necessary to accurately establish distances, while Liu Hui (c. 263) gives a version of the calculation above, for measuring perpendicular distances to inaccessible places.
# Catherine Nolan

Catherine T. Nolan (born March 12, 1958) is a former American politician who served as the Deputy Speaker of the New York State Assembly. From 1985 to 2022, Nolan represented the 37th Assembly District, which includes the Queens neighborhoods of Sunnyside, Ridgewood, Astoria, Woodside, Long Island City, Maspeth, Queensbridge, Ravenswood, Dutch Kills and Blissville.

# Japanese 20mm Cannon Blockhouse

The Japanese 20mm Cannon Blockhouse is one of many relics of World War II on the island of Saipan in the Northern Mariana Islands. It is a concrete blockhouse, semi-circular in shape with a diameter of about 6 metres (20 ft). Its walls are 1.22 metres (4.0 ft) thick with four firing ports large enough to accommodate 20mm cannons, originally equipped with steel sliding shutters. A steel door 25 millimetres (0.98 in) thick provides access to the structure at the rear, sheltered by a concrete wall and covered defensively by a machine gun port. The blockhouse is located near the center of what is locally called Big Agingan Beach (Unai Dankulo Agingan), on the south coast of the island, about 20 metres (66 ft) from the shore. It was built in some haste by the Japanese forces defending Saipan in 1944, and was captured by Allied forces early in the Battle of Saipan.
The blockhouse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.
# Japanese Coastal Defense Gun

The Japanese Coastal Defense Gun near Songsong on Rota in the Northern Marianas Islands, is a historic site that is listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. The gun emplacement was built by the Japanese military in 1941. It was listed on the National Register in 1984.
The gun included is a Japanese 140 millimeter coastal defense gun of Model 3 type. It is placed in a camouflaged, reinforced concrete casemate within the cliff overlooking the entrance to Rota's East Harbor. Its casemate is 7.7 metres (25 ft) wide and 6.6 metres (22 ft) deep. The defense gun itself was manufactured in Japan in 1925, and is bolted into place.
