# Paint Creek (West Virginia)

Paint Creek is a 42.1-mile (67.8 km) tributary of the Kanawha River in southern West Virginia. Paint Creek is part of the Mississippi River watershed via the Kanawha and Ohio Rivers and drains an area of 123 square miles (320 km$^2$).
Paint Creek rises in north central Raleigh County and flows along County Route 7 north through Sweeneyburg and Maynor. At Maynor, the creek continues north along the West Virginia Turnpike. The creek follows the turnpike north into Fayette County, where it runs through the communities of Willis Branch, Pax, Long Branch, and Lively before curving to the northwest. Past Mossy and East Kingston, the creek briefly turns away from the highway before following it through Westerly, Milburn, Coalfield, Mahan, and Collinsdale. The creek then enters Kanawha County, where it heads north through Burnwell, Greencastle, and Whittaker. At Standard, Paint Creek Road turns away from the turnpike to follow County Route 83 (Paint Creek Road) north through Livingston and Gallagher. The creek flows north through Hollygrove before reaching its mouth at the Kanawha River in Hansford.
Paint Creek was named for the fact Indians blazed trees using natural paint.

# Self-similarity matrix

In data analysis, the self-similarity matrix is a graphical representation of similar sequences in a data series.
Similarity can be explained by different measures, like spatial distance (distance matrix), correlation, or comparison of local histograms or spectral properties (e.g. IXEGRAM). A similarity plot can be the starting point for dot plots or recurrence plots.

## Definition

To construct a self-similarity matrix, one first transforms a data series into an ordered sequence of feature vectors $V=(v_{1},v_{2},\ldots ,v_{n})$, where each vector $v_{i}$ describes the relevant features of a data series in a given local interval. Then the self-similarity matrix is formed by computing the similarity of pairs of feature vectors
    $S(j,k)=s(v_{j},v_{k})\quad j,k\in (1,\ldots ,n)$
where $s(v_{j},v_{k})$ is a function measuring the similarity of the two vectors, for instance, the inner product $s(v_{j},v_{k})=v_{j}\cdot v_{k}$. Then similar segments of feature vectors will show up as path of high similarity along diagonals of the matrix. Similarity plots are used for action recognition that is invariant to point of view and for audio segmentation using spectral clustering of the self-similarity matrix.

# Elsa Buchanan

Elsa Buchanan (22 December 1908 – 17 January 2004) was an English character actress with a brief career in theatre and film.
Born Elsie Winifred Buchanan Tinker, Buchanan made her stage debut at age three at the Palace Theatre, London at a performance attended by Queen Mary. Buchanan was later the first Briton admitted to the training school of the Académie Française.
She made seventeen films in the United States, where she was noted for her blonde hair and called "the girl with the largest eyes and the smallest waist in Hollywood." She accepted the proposal of her husband, a merchant sailor named Noll Charlton, while attending a coronation ball for King George VI and retired from film thereafter.
Shortly before her death, she saw Gosford Park, in which one of the characters, a Hollywood producer, discusses casting for Charlie Chan in London, inviting a blonde maid to audition for the part that she actually played in that film.

# Al-Brazil

31°16′16.449″N 34°15′16.599″E﻿ / ﻿31.27123583°N 34.25461083°E﻿ / 31.27123583; 34.25461083 Al-Brazil is a neighborhood in the city of Rafah, in the Gaza Strip, one of the Palestinian territories. It lies in the South, by the border with Egypt. It was named after Brazil due to the presence of Brazilian soldiers in the United Nations Emergency Force which operated in Gaza in the 1950s-60s (the so-called Suez Battalion). There's another version of the origin of the name which sustains that it was only named Al-Brazil in the 1990s, when Brazil financed renovations there.

## History

The neighborhood was founded around an eponymous street, in a place that was known as "Campo Brasil" (Brazil Camp), and expanded for some blocks all the way to the border with Egypt, being home to refugees from conflicts with Israel.
Following the Six-Day War, Israeli forces tried to rename the place to Al Nahla ("honey bee" in Arabic) in honor of a Jewish man who died there and in whose pockets some well-preserved sweet dates were found weeks later. However, residents resisted the change; some even questioned the story's veracity. In 1970, when Israel built residential blocks for dislocated people, there was a second attempt to rename the place, this time to Dekel B, "dekel" being the Hebrew term for palm tree.
The conflicts between the two peoples made the neighborhood a constant target of Israeli bombings in at least three occasions: in the early 2000s, in 2014 and in 2024. In the first time, in the context of the Second Intifada, according to a report by the Human Rights Watch, Israel allegedly used bulldozers to bring down houses and open paths for its troops, avoiding possibly mined roads and giving its residents only a brief time to pick up their belongings, with some buildings being demolished while still occupied. According to The Guardian, 200 houses were demolished or bombed in Rafah, displacing 1,700 people, following an effort by the Israeli Army to uncover tunnels supposedly used to smuggle weapons from Egypt. In Al-Brazil specifically, a couple dozens houses were destroyed. Three tunnels and no weapons were found in the operation. Back then, the Israeli forces claimed only ten houses had been destroyed.
The most recent destruction took place as a consequence of the ongoing Israel-Hamas War. Over a year, Al-Brazil was one of the most targeted neighborhoods during Israeli bombings, since the Jewish state believes the place is harboring Hamas terrorists. Before these last attacks, Al-Brazil was a poor part of the city, full of low, poorly finished and overpopulated buildings. A representative of the UNRWA told BBC Brasil that efforts to rebuild the neighborhood, although accomplished in the past, are now uncertain due to the current level of destruction in the Gaza Strip, which he classified as "unprecedented".
# 1953 Chico State Wildcats football team

The 1953 Chico State Wildcats football team represented Chico State College—now known as California State University, Chico—as a member of the Far Western Conference (FWC) during the 1953 college football season. Led by Ernie Busch in his second and final season as head coach, Chico State compiled an overall record of 6–3–1 with a mark of 4–0–1 in conference play, winning the FWC title. The team outscored its opponents 150 to 133 for the season. The Wildcats played home games at Chico High School Stadium in Chico, California.
The team included 14 returning lettermen and 16 junior college transfers. Before the season began, improved expectations for the team's performance caused ticket sales to "soar to a new high."
On November 13, Chico State played the Cal Aggies to a scoreless tie in six inches of rain and 40 mile per hour winds, as a fierce storm also caused the press box to collapse during the game.
At the end of the season, four Chico State players were selected for the All-Far Western Conference football team: guard Gene Van der Leun, end George Maderos, and backs Hal Higgins and Carroll Campbell. Busch finished his tenure as Chico State with an overall record of 7–9–1, for a .441 winning percentage.

# Étoile Civique

The Étoile Civique (Civic Star) was created by the Académie Française in order to reward dedication to people and honor behavior and actions which attest this.

## History

Created in 1930 and named Mérite Civique (Civic Merit), it became Étoile Civique by the Journal Officiel de la République Française n° 292, page 11672 of 12 December 1968. It awards bravery and dedication to people and honor behavior and actions which attest this.
Distinguishing those who contribute to the enrichment of the community, improvement of social life, progress of Humanity, it is particularly interested in those whose lives are all of hard work, selflessness, sacrifice and will remain confined in anonymity without this award.
The Étoile Civique has three main goals:
* Improving the lives of individuals, whatever their age, nationality, color, social condition, taking into account their moral and material interests, as part of the human family ;
* The defense of human rights, respect for the duties of citizens, by express reference to the Universal Declaration that defines them ;
* To showcase the French national prestige.

## Classes and insignia

This distinction has four levels : bronze, silver, gold and silver-gilt. The medal contains the following: « Honorer les vertus civiques – Servir le prestige national » (To honor the civic virtues – Serving national prestige). On the reverse, it is written : « l'Étoile Civique en reconnaissance à ... Promotion ... » (The Civic Star in recognition of ... Promotion ...). Degree with the same registration is also awarded.

# Murder of Barbara Barnes

Barbara Ann Barnes was an American schoolgirl who was murdered in December 1995 at the age of 13. The case remains unsolved. Many have speculated that her uncle may have been responsible for her death, but others believe that the crime was committed by someone local to the area. Journalist James Renner has published his theory that the case may be connected to the murders of Tina Harmon, Krista Harrison, Deborah Kaye "Debbie" Smith, and Amy Mihaljevic.

## Background

Barnes was described as having been a soft-spoken girl who did well in school. She was in eighth grade and attended the nearby Harding Middle School. Because of the short distance between her home and her school, she walked to and from it every day, along with many other students. Her father had been shot to death in 1989, which had affected her to the point where her personality had changed.

## Disappearance and murder

It was reported by a classmate that Barnes was walking to school in her hometown of Steubenville, Ohio when she was abducted on December 7, 1995. After she failed to return home, an investigation began, including statewide searches. On February 22, 1996, her remains were discovered by surveyors in a riverbed and the cause of death was determined by examiners to have been by strangulation; she had also been raped.

## Investigation

Although her body was discovered near the property of her uncle, Louis Boyce, he was not charged with her murder. Boyce has remained under suspicion due to the fact that he reportedly did not pass a polygraph test regarding the murder of Barbara.
A friend of Boyce expressed that it was unlikely that her uncle had anything to do with the murder, stating that it was not likely for him to have harmed any of his relative's children. However, the same man was suspected by police to have played a part in the murder of her father years earlier. Other leads include a Florida man convicted of abducting children who had been present in Steubenville when Barbara Barnes was abducted. Although some members of the police department are skeptical, supporting the theory that she may have been murdered by someone native to the area.
