# Pete Cimino

Peter William Cimino (born October 17, 1942) is an American former professional baseball player who played four seasons for the Minnesota Twins and California Angels of Major League Baseball. He once scored 114 points in a high school basketball game and also had 20 strikeouts in one minor league baseball game. During his playing career, Cimino stood at 6 ft 2 in (1.88 m) and weighed 195 lbs.

## 114-point game

Cimino was born in Philadelphia. A star athlete at Bristol High School, he was both a pitcher on the baseball team and a forward on the basketball team.
Cimino might be best known for scoring 114 points in a high school basketball game on January 22, 1960. The single-game shooting outburst occurred during a 134–86 win over Palisades High School, in a Lower Bucks County League match. In the game, Cimino made 44 of 79 field goal attempts and 26 of 29 free throw attempts. He scored all 69 of his team's second half points. The 114-point total is still a Pennsylvania state record and is also the fourth highest in any United States boys high school game. The 44 field goals made and 79 attempts were both national single-game records at the time.
Afterwards, Cimino said, "All I wanted to do was break the league mark of 62. But the guys on the team kept getting the rebounds and I was able to score a lot on the fast break."

## Baseball career

Later in 1960, Cimino signed a professional baseball contract with the Washington Senators. He started his career that season as a pitcher for the Class D Wytheville Senators and went 6–2 with a 3.43 earned run average. The next season, he moved up to the Class B Wilson Tobs, of the Carolina League. Cimino didn't have much success in 1961, going just 4–5 with a 5.61 ERA. However, he bounced back in 1962. On April 30, 1962, he tied a Carolina League record by striking out 20 batters in one game. He went 12–13 that season and lowered his ERA to 3.36, while using his "blazing fastball" to record 190 strikeouts in 190 innings.
Cimino started 1963 with the AA Charlotte Hornets. He pitched well early in the season and then moved up again, to the AAA Dallas-Fort Worth Rangers. In 1964, he had a mediocre year with the International League's Atlanta Crackers, going 3–6 with a 4.50 ERA in 120 innings. He rebounded once again the following season with the Pacific Coast League's Denver Bears, winning 9 of 16 decisions. He was then called up to the major league Minnesota Twins. In his major league debut on September 22, he pitched one inning without allowing a baserunner.
Cimino spent 1966 as a relief pitcher for the Twins. He pitched 64.2 innings in 35 games and struck out 57. His 2.92 ERA was better than the league average. On December 2, he was traded, along with Jimmie Hall and Don Mincher, to the California Angels, for Dean Chance and Jackie Hernández. In 1967, he had 80 strikeouts in 88.1 innings for the Angels. He also started off 1968 with the major league club, pitching in four games, but was sold to the Seattle Angels on May 8. Cimino never returned to the major leagues.
# Liolaemus goetschi

Liolaemus goetschi is a species of lizard in the family Liolaemidae. The species is endemic to Argentina.

## Etymology

The specific name, goetschi, is in honor of Wilhelm Goetsch, who was a German herpetologist and entomologist.

## Geographic range

L. goetschi is found in the Argentinian provinces of Neuquén and Río Negro.

## Habitat

The preferred natural habitats of L. goetschi are grassland and shrubland, at altitudes of 300–700 m (980–2,300 ft).

## Description

L. goetschi may attain a snout-to-vent length (SVL) of about 7.5 cm (3.0 in). It has a patch of enlarged scales on the posterior surface of the femur.

## Diet

L. goetschi is omnivorous.

## Reproduction

L. goetschi is oviparous.

## Taxonomy

L. goetschi belongs to the L. boulengeri species group.
# Colby Fire

The Colby Fire was a wildfire in the Angeles National Forest. It was ignited along the Colby Truck Trail in the San Gabriel Mountains in northern Los Angeles County, United States. The fire started on January 16, 2014, and eventually burned 1,992 acres. On January 25, the Colby Fire had burned 1,962 acres, and was 98% contained. The fire, which was fanned by strong Santa Ana winds, destroyed five homes, injured one person, and forced the evacuation of 3,600 people at its peak.
Three men in their early 20s were arrested for recklessly starting a fire, and have allegedly admitted starting an illegal campfire that blew out of control. They will face federal charges of unlawfully causing timber to burn. Bail has been set at $500,000 for each of them "due to the seriousness of the crime, as well as the high cost of damaged property and resources to fight the fire." One of the men, a transient, has been placed in a residential drug treatment facility. Two of the men were convicted of lighting and failing to control an illegal campfire; the third person is scheduled to go to trial later in 2014.
January fires are unusual in Southern California, but there was little rainfall in the area leading up to the fire, which led to a "red flag" fire danger situation. Warm temperatures, low humidity, and an excess of dry brush in the foothills around Glendora (which had not burned significantly since the 1960s) encouraged the growth of the fire.
# Bruce C. Murray

Bruce Churchill Murray (November 30, 1931 – August 29, 2013) was an American planetary scientist. He was a director of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and co-founder of The Planetary Society.

## Education and early life

Murray received his Ph.D. in geology from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1955 and joined Standard Oil of California as a geologist. He served in the United States Air Force as a geophysicist, and the U.S. Civil Service before joining California Institute of Technology (Caltech) in 1960.

## Main career

At Caltech, Murray became an associate professor in 1963, a full professor in 1969, and a professor emeritus in 2001. He would later become professor emeritus of planetary science and geology.
Murray began working at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (managed by/affiliated with Caltech) in 1960, and served as its director from April 1, 1976, to June 30, 1982. He was an important force in promoting the recruitment and hiring of female engineers at the lab, where more women are employed today than any other NASA facility. Murray became JPL's director at a time when space exploration budgets were shrinking; among other achievements, he saved the Galileo mission to Jupiter from the budget axe.
Murray worked out the geologic history of Mars using photographs taken by Mariner 4 in 1965; he worked with Bob Leighton to accomplish this task. He applied similar photographic analysis when he served as chief scientist of Mariner 10. As he took over management of JPL, he expressed reservations about the Viking lander program, pointing out that the biological experiments included with the spacecraft were not sufficient to accomplish their stated goals.
In 1971, he participated in a symposium on the occasion of the arrival of Mariner 9 to Mars, together with Ray Bradbury, Arthur C. Clarke, Carl Sagan, and Walter Sullivan. Their discussions were recorded in the book Mars and the Mind of Man.
With Carl Sagan and Louis Friedman, Murray founded The Planetary Society in 1980. He also served a term as its chair.

## Personal life and death

Murray was twice married. With his first wife, Joan O'Brien, he had three children. Murray and O'Brien divorced in 1970. In 1971, Murray married Suzanne Murray, with whom he had two children.
One of Murray's cousins is former Speaker of the House Tom Foley.
Murray died at his home in Oceanside, California on August 29, 2013, from complications of Alzheimer's disease, aged 81.

## Awards and honors

Murray was the recipient of the 1997 Carl Sagan Memorial Award.
In 2004, Murray was awarded the Telluride Tech Festival Award of Technology in Telluride, Colorado.
Asteroid 4957 Brucemurray is named after him, and the asteroid 2392 Jonathan Murray is named after his son.
On November 13, 2013, NASA announced the names of two features on Mars important to two active Mars exploration rovers in honor of Murray: "Murray Ridge", an uplifted crater that the Opportunity rover was exploring; and "Murray Buttes", an entryway the Curiosity rover had to traverse on its way to Mount Sharp.
# Tylodiscoceras

Tylodicoceras is a genus of the Koninckioceratidae (Cephalopoda, Nautiloid) from the Devonian thru Mississippian of North America with a large, slightly involute, discoidal shell that is rounded laterally and concave ventrally. Their sides bear a single row with large rounded nodes.
# Alexander Sambugnac

Alexander Sambugnac was a Yugoslav-American artist and sculptor. He was born April 22, 1888, in Zimony, Kingdom of Hungary (today Zemun, Serbia). He studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Budapest, Hungary and Munich, Germany where he studied under Franz von Stuck. In 1913, he went to Paris and studied with Antoine Bourdelle. His sculptures were commission for U.S. Post Offices for a Great Depression era program overseen by the U.S. Treasury Department. His work is also at the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest, at a cathedral in Vienna, Austria and at the capitol in Havana, Cuba. He became a naturalized U.S. citizen in 1938 and was a member of the Architectural League of New York and the National Sculpture Society. Sambugnac's sculptures are at the David W. Dyer Federal Building and United States Courthouse where he crafted two cast-stone lunettes in 1938. The low-relief panels portray two allegorical figures representing themes of the spirit of justice on the lintels above the leather-covered doors. Love and Hope shows a young woman playing the lyre, while Wisdom and Courage depicts a seated figure gazing at a tablet of the law.
His work in Cuba was for a memorial for Jose Marti.
# Prelude to a Kiss (song)

"Prelude to a Kiss" is a 1938 ballad composed by Duke Ellington, with lyrics by Irving Gordon and Irving Mills.

## Background and composition

This composition is in the key of D-flat major but makes extensive use of the secondary dominant chords, secondary ii–V–I progressions, diatonic circle of fifths, and evaded cadences. The song is extremely chromatic and complex, employing sophisticated mathematics that were rare at this time in jazz: Ellington's rising semitones (G-G#-A-A#-B) at the end of the bridge mirror the opening of both A sections (B-A#-A-G#-G).
By the late 1930s, swing was at the height of its popularity. Using his fame and artistic freedom, Ellington became more ambitious and experimental, writing "Prelude to a Kiss", which abandoned the Tin Pan Alley style hooks and dance tempo for melodic lines and harmonies found more often in classical music. He recorded this piece as an instrumental in August 1938 before returning to the studio a few weeks later to record it as a vocal number with lyrics by Irving Gordon and Irving Mills that were sung by a young and relatively unknown Mary McHugh. Popular records in 1938 were by Ellington and by Johnny Hodges and His Orchestra.

## Reception

Gunther Schuller described "Prelude to a Kiss" as "One of Ellington's finest ballads, although too sophisticated in its weaving melody and chromatic harmonies to gain wide public acceptance."

# Conrow Fire

The Conrow Fire was a wildfire that burned seven miles northeast of Whitehall in the Beaverhead–Deerlodge National Forest in Montana in the United States. The fire was started by a lightning strike on August 24, 2017. It has burned 2,741 acres (11 km$^2$) and has threatened homes, ranches and mining operations in the area.

## Events

The Conrow Fire was started by a lightning strike on August 24, 2017, on private land seven miles northeast of Whitehall, Montana. By August 27, the fire had grown to 2,727 acres (11 km$^2$) and had moved onto Bureau of Land Management and United States Forest Service land in Jefferson County. The fire threatened 25 structures, including cellphone towers, mining areas, homes and cattle ranches along the Highway 69 corridor.
By the next day, the fire threatened one more structure, totaling 26 and structure assessments began in the Antelope Lane area. On August 28, a containment date of September 2 was set and two Chinook helicopters joined the firefight, dropping water on the fire. The fire began to dramatically impact air quality, with the help of other fires burning in the area, including creating the worst air quality day in two years in Butte. On August 30 the fire was declared 65% contained at 2,727 acres (11 km$^2$). Crews changed the full containment date from September 1 to September 6.
As of September 5, the fire expanded to 2,741 acres (11 km$^2$) and was 97% contained, with fire lines successfully holding the fire, despite the fire's close proximity to unburned fuels.
# Royal Swedish Regiment (France)

The Régiment de Royal Suédois (English: Royal Swedish Regiment) was a foreign infantry regiment in the Royal French Army during the Ancien Régime. It was created in 1690 from Swedish prisoners taken during the Battle of Fleurus. The regiment eventually acquired the privilege of being called a Royal regiment.

## German regiment

The regiment nominally accepted only Swedish officers. However most of the privates and NCOs were of German origin, from Swedish Pomerania, in view of the difficulty of obtaining sufficient numbers of Swedish recruits, and at least one Irishman, Daniel Charles O'Connell, was a lieutenant colonel in the regiment.
The actual Swedish element in the regiment diminished after 1740. Between 1741 and 1749 only one of the 438 men enlisted was actually Swedish. By 1754 even the officer corps numbered only 14 Swedes out of a total of 41. In spite of its origins and connections the Royal-Suedois came to be ranked as a German regiment.
Count Axel von Fersen purchased the position of colonel-proprietor of the regiment in 1783, according to some in order to be able to stay close to the Queen of France Marie Antoinette. He remained in active command of the regiment until the beginning of the French Revolution in 1789, and officially this was still the case when, in 1791, all non-Swiss foreign regiments of the royal army lost their traditional titles and status. The regiment was then reorganised as the new 89th Regiment of the Line.

## Regimental title

Initially named the Lenck Regiment, the unit was renamed as the Appelgrehn Regiment in 1734. These titles were both names of the successive regimental colonels, following the usual French Army practice of the period. However in 1742 the Swedish government requested that the regiment be given the distinction of being renamed Royal-Suedois.

## Colours

* King’s Colours and Regimental Colours
* King’s Colour 1690 to 1760
* régiment de Leisler 1690 to 1694
* régiment de Sparre 1694 to 1714
* régiment de Lenck 1714 to 1734
* régiment d’Appelgrehn 1734 to 1742
* King’s Colour 1760 to 1790
* régiment Royal-Suédois 1742 to 1760
* régiment Royal-Suédois 1760 to 1790

## Uniforms

From about 1750 onwards the regiment was distinguished by wearing dark blue coats with buff (yellow-brown) collars and cuffs. This colour combination matched the uniform of most infantry regiments in the Swedish Army from the 17th to the early 20th centuries.
* Uniforms
* Johan Cronhielm in the uniform of régiment, Lenck, ca 1730
* régiment Lenck, 1729 to 1734
* regiment Appelgrehn, 1734 to 1742
* Grenadier of régiment Royal-Suédois, 1762 to 1776
* régiment Royal-Suédois in 1772
* régiment Royal-Suédois, from 1776

## Swedish regiment

In December 1813, the regiment was once again raised by a French émigré in Germany, and it fought in the Swedish Army during the Battle of Leipzig in 1813 and during the campaign in Norway in 1814. The Royal Suédois was finally disbanded in December 1814 while in Norway.

## Traditions

Today, the regiment's traditions and flag are carried on in the French Army via a company in the 4th Infantry Regiment.
# Minnie Ball House

The Minnie Ball House, also known as the Robinson-Slack-Marinelli House, is a historic residence in Friars Point in Coahoma County, Mississippi. It is marked from U.S. Navy shelling during the American Civil War. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. A historical marker commemorates its history.
It was built of cypress and red poplar. It had a lookout tower. It was moved around after levee construction. It was occupied by the Union Army during the Civil War.
# Picrorhiza kurroa

Picrorhiza kurroa is one of the major income generating non-timber forest products found in the Nepalese Himalayas. It is one of the oldest medicinal plants traded from the Karnali zone. Known as kutki or कुटकी in Nepali, it is a perennial herb and is used as a substitute for Indian gentian (Gentiana kurroo).

## Habitat

It is found in the Himalayan region from Ladakh Kashmir to Sikkim at an elevation of 2700–4500 m and in Nepal, found abundantly between 3500 and 4800 m. It has been reported that Picrorhiza has been harvested to near extinction.

## Description

Leaves: 5–15 cm long leaves, almost all at the base, often withered. Leaves are coarsely toothed, narrowed to a winged stalk. Rhizomes of the plant are 15–25 cm long and woody. Flowers: small, pale or purplish blue, borne in cylindric spikes, spikes borne on almost leafless erect stems. Flowers about 8 mm, 5-lobed to the middle, and with much longer stamens. Fruits: 1.3 cm long.
Chemistry: Chemical composition of Picrorhiza kurroa include Kutkin, a bitter glycoside which contains two C-9 iridoid glycosides, Picroside I and Kutakoside.

## Conservation

In 1997, kutki was listed in appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES). This listing resulted ultimately from a request by the Indian government. Overharvesting of the wild species for use as medicine was cited as the main reason for the listing. The species not widely cultivated, though this has been discussed as a potential way to preserve wild stands, especially since the Dunagiri Foundation Trust has created, implemented, and successfully employed protocols to generate export-quality organic ethical 'Dunagiri Certified' Kutki since 2014. The International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List did not have a listing for this species as of 2014. Picrorhiza scrophulariiflora appears to be used heavily as a substitute for P. kurroa and is considered non-threatened by CITES.

## Usage

The rhizome has a long history of use in Indian Ayurvedic medicine for the treatment of digestive problems. Other uses have been proposed (e.g. for asthma, liver damage, wound healing, vitiligo), but the medical evidence is not yet conclusive. It appears to be relatively safe based on its long history of traditional use. Kutki has hepato-protective properties and thus supports the liver and spleen. It is used in all forms of liver damage, cirrhosis, and inflammation of the liver. It protects the liver against damage from the hepatitis C virus.
