# Edward Rutherfurd

Francis Edward Wintle (born 1948), known by his pen name Edward Rutherfurd, is an English novelist. He is best known as a writer of epic historical novels that span long periods of history but are set in particular places. His debut novel, Sarum, set the pattern for his work with a ten-thousand-year storyline.

## Biography

Rutherfurd attended the University of Cambridge and Stanford Business School, where he earned a Sloan fellowship. After graduating he worked in political research, bookselling and publishing. He abandoned his career in the book trade in 1983 and returned to his childhood home to write Sarum, a historical novel with a ten-thousand year story, set in the area around the ancient monument of Stonehenge and Salisbury.
Sarum was published in 1987 and became an instant international best-seller, remaining for 23 weeks on the New York Times Bestseller List. Since then he produced seven more New York Times best-sellers: Russka, a novel of Russia; London; The Forest, set in England's New Forest which lies close by Sarum; two novels, Dublin: Foundation (The Princes of Ireland) and Ireland: Awakening (The Rebels of Ireland), which cover the story of Ireland from the time just before Saint Patrick to the twentieth century; New York; Paris; and China.
His books have sold more than fifteen million copies and been translated into twenty languages. Rutherfurd settled near Dublin, Ireland in the early 1990s, but currently divides his time between Europe and North America.
New York: The Novel, won the Langum Prize for American Historical Fiction in 2009 and was awarded the Washington Irving Medal for Literary Excellence, by the Saint Nicholas Society of the City of New York, in 2011.
In 2015 Edward Rutherfurd was the recipient of the City of Zaragoza's International Historical Novel Honor Award "for his body of work in the field of the historical novel."

## Style

Rutherfurd invents four to six fictional families and tells the stories of their descendants. Using this framework, he chronicles the history of a place, often from the beginning of civilisation to modern times – a kind of historical fiction inspired by the work of James Michener.
Rutherfurd's novels are generally at least 500 pages in length and sometimes more than 1,000. Divided into a number of parts, each chapter represents a different era in the place where the novel is set. There is usually an extensive family tree in the introduction, with each generational line matching the corresponding chapters.

# Battle of Essien (1957)

The Battle of Essien, also known as the Battle of Isin, took place in October 1957, in the village of Essien, located south of the Libyan town of Ghat. This significant engagement emerged from the complex dynamics of the Algerian War of Independence against French colonial rule.

## Background

During the French colonial empires last days, Algerians had launched a rebellion against the French, with the means of seeking independence. The French had an unsteady relationship with not just the Algerian resistance, but as well as the neighbouring countries that bordered French Algeria.
Franco-Libyan relations were quite unsteady. In November 1954, Bin Halim had assisted a delivery of supplies from Egypt to the Algerian resistance. Fezzan had then became the main supply route for the Algerian resistance.

## The battle

An ambush was orchestrated by Algerian Mujahideen on a French supply convoy near the Algeria–Libya border. Following this incident, the Mujahideen retreated into Libyan territory, prompting the French occupation army to pursue them across the border. The escalation of hostilities led to the bombing of the village of Issin by French forces on October 3, 1957, further exacerbating tensions between Algeria, Libya, and France.
The height of the conflict came on October 4, 1957, as the Libyan army intervened against the French forces, marking the commencement of the Battle of Essien. The French deployed a column consisting of 16 cars and 80 soldiers. Algerian and Libyan revolutionaries intercepted the attack, engaging in fierce resistance against the invading forces. Despite being outnumbered, the Algerian and Libyan fighters were able to defend their position, inflicting casualties on the French forces.
The town was later bombed several times by the French. However, the Libyan and Algerian Mujahideen were able to force the French to withdraw from the region.

## Reactions

The French attack was condemned by the Libyan kingdom, and was also condemned by The United Nations Commission of Inquiry, saying that the attack on Libyan soil is unjust.

## Legacy

The anniversary of the battle is celebrated every year by Algerian and Libyan diplomats, ambassadors, and other figures. The battle is remembered every year as a reminder of how they "fought against the common enemy", further solidifying the Algerian–Libyan relations.
Franco-Libyan relations remained very unsteady, and did not begin to improve whatsoever up until Algeria gained its Independence in 1962.
# Famicom 3D System

The Family Computer 3D System, commonly known as the Famicom 3D System, is a stereoscopic video game accessory produced by Nintendo for its Family Computer (Famicom) console. It was released exclusively in Japan on October 21, 1987, at an MSRP of ¥6,000. The 3D System consists of a pair of active shutter glasses (model HVC-031) and an adapter (model HVC-032) that connects up to two of them via 3.5 mm jacks; the latter connects to the Famicom's expansion port and includes a passthrough port to allow connection of other accessories that use the expansion port. Compatible games would play in conventional 2D until a "3D mode" was activated via a button press or combination, which allowed them to display a stereoscopic image in a similar manner to the SegaScope 3-D glasses for Sega's Master System.
The 3D System was a commercial failure and, as a result, was never released outside Japan. Criticisms included the clunkiness of the glasses and the limited selection of compatible titles. Compatible games that received a release outside Japan were recoded for compatibility with anaglyph 3D glasses instead. Eight years later, in 1995, Nintendo again ventured into stereoscopic gaming with the commercially unsuccessful Virtual Boy. In the following years, Nintendo experimented in stereoscopic 3D with both the GameCube and Game Boy Advance SP systems, but these features were not released commercially due to cost and technical limitations. In 2011, Nintendo released the 3DS handheld capable of displaying stereoscopic 3D images without the need for special glasses. The 3DS has enjoyed a largely positive reception. In 2019 Nintendo released a Labo VR Kit.

## List of compatible games

* Attack Animal Gakuen by Pony Canyon
* Cosmic Epsilon by Asmik
* Falsion by Konami
* Famicom Grand Prix II: 3D Hot Rally by Nintendo
* Highway Star (Rad Racer outside Japan) by Square

## Projects

Over the year since the release of the iOS version of Ascendancy (January 2011—January 2012), Logic Factory released several free updates to the game via the Apple iTunes App Store. These updates included new features to the game, such as long-range ship movement ordering, a ship design library, and graphics enhancements including colony production statistics appearing in the form of icons in the main display of the game.
Logic Factory had announced they would be continuing to work on new updates to Ascendancy iOS and would do so until the development team believes to have reached an appropriate stopping point, at which time they may decide to see this version of Ascendancy ported to other platforms, such as Android, Mac, PC, and/or consoles. Logic Factory stated they were working on new updates for Ascendancy, other games that fit within the Ascendancy universe, and products based upon years of time spent in research and development. The company announced they were committed to making Ascendancy II, but they had not revealed details of its design and development.

# JumpStart 1st Grade

JumpStart 1st Grade (known as Jump Ahead Year 1 in the United Kingdom) is a personal computer game created by Knowledge Adventure in 1995 intended to teach a first grade curriculum. It was reissued in 1999 with new box art, was updated significantly in 2000, and was replaced with JumpStart Advanced 1st Grade in 2002, which was later replaced with JumpStart 3D Virtual World: Trouble in Town. The original 1995 version (also referred to as the Classic Version) was the first appearance of Frankie, a brown, anthropomorphic dachshund dog who would go on to become the mascot of the JumpStart series.

## Gameplay

The 1995 version of the game consisted of an interactive schoolhouse full of educational activities, songs, and the like, with Frankie the school mascot in charge of guiding the player around. Playing activities earned points, which could eventually be traded in for milk cap rewards. The classic version contains the voiceover and singing talents of Mark Beckwith of Razzle Bam Boom and Glynnis Talken Campbell including the radio songs: JumpStart First Grade, Zero is Nothing, My Week at Sea, If You Were My Friend, Vegetable ABCs, and Reading is Fun in classroom order, Frankie's Theme Song in the classroom, Vegetable ABCs in the lunchroom, and the radio songs in beach order starting with My Week at Sea.
The 2000 version was based on a similar concept with Frankie taking on a more student-like role, and picking the player to be his partner in the school treasure hunt. Playing games now earned the player clues to help find the treasure. The four areas are a classroom, a cafeteria, field trips, and a playground. The player earns 100 points to earn a milk cap. There are 30 math caps in green, 30 reading caps in red, 20 time caps in yellow, and 20 nature caps in blue.

## Reception

A reviewer from Superkids recommended the game for younger players, who would not become bored from the repetitive tasks and activities.
# Mrs Arthur Webb

Mrs. Arthur Webb née Mabel Elizabeth Edwards (1874-1957) was a writer who wrote for Farmer's Weekly and also appeared on BBC Radio during World War II in connection with the network's broadcasts for housewives.
Of concern in those days was the conservation of kitchen fuel. As a writer for Farmer's Weekly Mrs Arthur Webb recommended cooking full meals in a steamer including puddings and cakes. When Mrs. Arthur Webb's Economical Cookery was published in 1934 it didn't appeal much to the working class British public.
One of her projects with the BBC was to collect recipes from British farmhouses in all parts of the country. The recipe she recorded for "Norfolk dumplings" was a simple yeast-leavened bread dough, "not a sweet", cooked by boiling and often served as a substantial part of the meal, or on their own if there wasn't any meat.
"Making the Most of a Wartime Larder" was broadcast with Mrs. Arthur Webb at 9:45 AM in September 1939. Beginning in 1940, The Ministry of Food prepared recipes and information to be broadcast to British housewives daily by the BBC Home Service everyday between 8:15 and 8:20, timed in the morning before housewives did their daily shopping. Part of the purpose of these broadcasts was to give women information on what types of foods were available at markets and what they needed to conserve as part of the war effort.
She was married to Arthur Webb, the building society administrator.

# Shwe Hpyin Naungdaw

Shwe Hpyin Naungdaw (ရွှေဖျင်းနောင်တော်; lit. 'Goldpot the Elder'), also called Shwe Hpyin Gyi (ရွှေဖျင်းကြီး) or Min Gyi (မင်းကြီး), is one of the 37 nats in the official pantheon of Burmese nats. He is the elder brother of Shwe Hpyin Nyidaw and the son of Popa Medaw, another nat. Worshippers of this nat avoid consumption of pork, as Shwe Hpyin Gyi's father, Byatta, is believed to have been an Indian Muslim.
They were killed for neglecting their duty to provide a brick each thus leaving gaps in Taungbyone Pagoda, which was built by King Anawrahta. After death, the brothers became spirits and manifested themselves in front of King Anawrahta, requesting apaing-za (possession) of territory. Responding to their plea, King Anawrahta granted them possession of Taungbyon.
They are portrayed on pedestals, one lying down and the other upright with his sword shouldered arrogantly.
The largest Nat festival in Myanmar is the Taungbyone Festival, celebrated annually for six days in Taungbyone village near Mandalay. The festival pays tribute to the Shwe Hpyin brothers. Thousands of festive worshippers gather for the event, engaging in dance with spirit mediums, enjoying roadside snacks, and shopping for souvenirs.
