# Phedimus selskianus

Phedimus selskianus is a species of succulent flowering plant from the Crassulaceae family.
Phedimus selskianus was originally described, in 1861, as Sedum selskianum. In 1931 it was demoted to a subspecies of Sedum aizoon. In the most recent classification of the crassulacean plants, the species is placed in the genus Phedimus rather than Sedum. One of the most distinctive features of Phedimus selskianus within the Phedimus subgenus Aizoon is the presence of conspicuous glandular hairs, setting it apart from closely related species.
Phedimus selskianus is native to the Russian Amur Oblast in eastern Siberia, Manchuria in northeastern China, and Japan. It thrives in dry, rocky, and stony slopes, as well as in deciduous forests and open fields.
Phedimus selskianus is a perennial herbaceous plant with erect, hairy stems and a thick, woody rhizome. The leaves come in different shapes, ranging from narrow and pointed to more elongated and oval; some are long and slender with slightly rounded edges. The upper part of the leaf margin is finely toothed, while both surfaces are finely pubescent, giving them a dark, glossy green appearance.
Phedimus selskianus blooms in mid-summer. The flowering branches are relatively slender and covered in fine hairs, reaching heights of 15–50 cm. The inflorescence is a corymb, a large, dense cluster measuring 5–10 cm across. The flowers are star-like, with five to six white petals, slightly shorter than the sepals, and fused at the base for up to 2 mm. The sepals are narrow and pointed, blunt-tipped, and covered in fine hairs on the upper side. The stamens have orange anthers, and the nectar glands are small and yellowish. The fruit is produced in late summer. It consists of multiple follicles, each measuring 4–6 mm in length, and contains numerous tiny seeds.
# Charlie Hunter (runner)

Charlie Hunter (born 20 July 1996) is an Australian middle-distance runner who specializes in the 800 metres.
Hunter competed in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. He came fourth in his Men's 800m heat with a time of 1:45:91. He qualified for the semi-final where he finished seventh and therefore was eliminated.

## Early years

Hunter grew up on the NSW Central Coast. From an early age he enjoyed swimming and surfing rather than running. He played football and rugby at school and then joined Little Athletics as an under-9.
Hunter graduated from high school in 2014 and concentrated on his running. He won the national U20 1500m during his gap year. In 2017, as a 21-year-old, Hunter applied for a scholarship at the University of Oregon in the USA. As he was now a mature student the process took a long time. Finally after 18 months he got the scholarship and made the NCAA 1500m final in his first season (2019).

## Collegiate career

In 2021, Hunter placed third overall in the NCAA DI 800m Championships, running for the University of Oregon. At this meet, he set two Australian indoor records in just 24 hours. He broke his own national record for the indoor mile when he ran 3:53.49, then he broke the 800-metre indoor record with a 1:45.59 run, bettering Joseph Deng's time of 1:47.27 set in 2019. On 22 June 2021 Hunter ran the second quickest 800-metre time ever by an Australian and claimed the third place on the Australian 800m team for the delayed 2020 Summer Games when he ran 1:44.35 at a meet in Portland. He came just 0.14 seconds short of Deng's national record time of 1:44.21, set in Monaco in 2018.

# Tulketh Hall

Tulketh Hall was a country house in Ashton-on-Ribble, which is now a suburb of Preston, Lancashire, England. It was demolished in 1960.

## History

In the 12th century, Tulketh was the location of Tulketh Priory where a group of monks from Savigny Abbey, Normandy, lived until they moved to Furness Abbey in 1127. Documentary evidence of a hall at Tulketh dates from the 14th century, when it was inhabited by Laurence Travers, a Member of Parliament. In the 17th and 18th centuries, Tulketh was the home of at least three families—the Werden family, the Rawstorne family and then the Hesketh family. It was remodelled in the 17th century by Roger Hesketh (d. 1791) in the 18th century. In the 19th century, the exterior was stuccoed, although 18th century interior elements were kept. The building had battlements and a tower, which was also castellated.
By 1844, Tulketh Hall was in the possession of Peter Hesketh-Fleetwood. Along with most of the rest of his property, Hesketh-Fleetwood sold Tulketh in the 1840s to cover his debts. It was bought by a Preston solicitor, and then the Rev. Thomas Johnson; the hall was then used as a vicarage for St Mark's Church. It was remodelled again around this time.
In 1898 the hall was bought by the Catholic Brothers of Charity as a "home for working boys" and a home for "infirm and afflicted boys", but by 1901 had been converted to St Thomas's Home Industrial School for Roman Catholic Boys. After a troubled history in which an unusually high number of the boys and staff died from various serious illnesses the school closed in 1924. Later, it served as the offices for Tulketh Mill. After the Second World War the house was used as an Army Infantry Records Office until the building was damaged by fire in 1952.
Tulketh Hall was demolished in 1960. The site has been developed for housing (Tulketh Crescent and Hesketh St).

# Verah Falls

Verah Falls was an American post-hardcore band from Portland, Oregon. Formed in 2010 the group was signed to BlkHeart Group. Their debut EP, All Our Yesterdays, was released on June 7, 2011.

## History

Verah Falls was founded in the fall of 2010, by vocalist Craig Prater, and drummer Tyler Wenz, in Portland, Oregon. They asked friend Grant Slewitzke to help with a demo and, together with producer Stephan Hawkes, they recorded a track called "The cover up, uncovered" which was later used on the EP. They then went on a search to find the current line-up. The group went on to record a five-song EP at Interlace Audio in their hometown. After local touring, they received attention from BlkHeart Group and signed onto their roster that included Molotov Solution, Destruction Of A Rose and No Bragging Rights.
In June 2011, the band released their debut EP, All Our Yesterdays, on iTunes, to mixed reviews. The album was recorded by Craig Prater, Ty Wenz, Graham Brown, Kyle Gilmer, and Forrest Burton. Ryan Williford of online review site Audiopinions stated that, "The instrumental parts were well written and there is nothing here that is beyond their skill or them trying to force anything into a song. One of the best factors about the band is that nothing takes priority over another aspect of the sound", while Vic Vaughn of Metal review site MetalSucks simply stated that "Uh, wow, another shitty melodic emo-screamo hard-kee-yore band. It sucks. Ignore it."
In March 2014 vocalist Craig and bassist Timothee left the band. The band added new vocalist Jacob Krueger and bassist Dylan Williams and now perform under the name Like Vultures.

# Vice-President of Malawi

Vice-President of Malawi (Chichewa: Wotsatira wa Mtsogoleri wa Dziko la Malawi; Tumbuka: Wachiŵili kwa Mlongozgi wa charu cha Malaŵi) is the second highest political position in Malawi.
The Vice-President is elected on the same ticket with the President. The President can also appoint a Second Vice-President if he desires. The position was first established in November 1994 to assist the President. However, the office has been mainly ceremonial as its sole purpose is to replace the president in his absence, death, or inability to hold office.

# Ralph Izard (naval officer)

Ralph DeLancey Izard (26 February 1785 – 21 January 1822) was a United States Navy officer who became a hero for his actions at Tripoli, during the Barbary Wars. The destroyer USS Izard (DD-589) was named after him.

## Early service

Ralph DeLancey Izard was born 26 February 1785 at Charleston, South Carolina, the son of a prominent political family. His mother was Alice De Lancey Izard, and his father was Senator Ralph Izard, who served as a delegate to the Continental Congress (1782–1783), U.S. Senator from South Carolina (1789–1795), and was President pro tempore of the United States Senate.
Ralph was appointed Midshipman 2 October 1799.

## The Burning of the Philadelphia

Izard volunteered and took part in the expedition under Lieutenant Stephen Decatur, commanding the ketch Intrepid, which entered the harbor of Tripoli 16 February 1804 and destroyed the captured U.S. frigate Philadelphia in what Lord Nelson called the most daring act of the age. Izard was assigned duty under Lt. Decatur, with Midshipman John Rowe and 15 men, to hold the spar deck.

## Later duty

He also took part in the attacks on Tripoli during August and September 1804 as part of Commodore Edward Preble's squadron. He was promoted to Lieutenant on 27 January 1807. Lt. Izard died 21 January 1822 at Charleston, South Carolina.

## Marriage

In 1808, Izard married Eliza Pinckney, daughter of Maj-Gen Charles Cotesworth Pinckney, signatory to the Constitution, and a granddaughter of Col Charles Pinckney, chief justice of South Carolina.

## Namesake

The destroyer Izard was launched and named in Lt. Izard's honor on 8 August 1942. She served in the Pacific during World War II, including the battles of Kwajalein, the Philippine Sea, Leyte, and Iwo Jima, among others. She received 10 battle stars for service.
# Finis Terræ

Finis Terræ is a 1929 French silent drama film written and directed by Jean Epstein. The story centres on a small group of men harvesting seaweed off the coast of Brittany, and the problems which arise when one of them gets an infected thumb. The film's title is the old Latin name of the region Finistère, where the story is set, and means "End of the Earth". The film is shot in a documentary-like style, with local non-actors in all roles, and frequent handheld camerawork. Also, Epstein often inserts slow motion footage.

## Plot

On the islet Bannec, off the coast of Brittany, four fishermen have set up camp for three months to harvest seaweed. If processed correctly, the ash of the seaweed can be sold for high prices. It is therefore burnt in several large piles on the island.
The two youngest fishermen, Ambroise and Jean-Marie, begin brawling when Ambroise drops Jean-Marie's only bottle of wine. Ambroise cuts his thumb on a piece of glass. After the quarrel, Jean-Marie cannot find his knife and believes Ambroise has stolen it. At work next day Ambroise starts to feel weak. He discovers that the thumb is infected and swollen. He does not tell the others about it; instead, his attempts to hide the injury makes them accuse him of laziness and immature behaviour. After a feverish night, Ambroise decides to sneak out and sail to Ushant to see a doctor, but the voyage fails due to low wind and a strong current. On his way back to the camp, Ambroise collapses on the beach.
On Ushant, people are concerned that only one plume of smoke is coming from Bannec. A disquieted group of fishermen's wives, parents and widows go to the island doctor and ask him to go to the islet, which he promises to do as soon as the tide allows. Meanwhile the other men on Bannec discover Ambroise on the beach and carry him to the camp. Jean-Marie suddenly finds his knife and realises he has judged Ambroise unfairly. He tries to convince the other men to bring Ambroise to Ushant, but is told that it is impossible without more wind. Jean-Marie then carries Ambroise to the boat. Struggling both with the boat and to keep Ambroise conscious, he sets out to get him to the doctor himself. At the same time, the doctor has enlisted a crew of volunteers and sets out to reach Bannec. A thick fog appears and both boats have a hard time to see anything. Eventually, as they pass close to each other, Jean-Marie sees the doctor's boat and calls for it. The doctor hears the call. He boards Jean-Marie's boat and quickly lances Ambrose's thumb.
Ambroise is brought ashore at Ushant and put to bed. Jean-Marie visits him and tends him. The tired doctor receives a message about a sick man on the other side of the island and sets off.

## Production

Jean Epstein had discovered the islands of Brittany soon before the production of Finis Terræ, and immediately became fascinated and impressed by both the environment and the local community of fishermen. The film was produced by Société Genérale de films. It was shot on location on the islands Bannec and Ushant, and starred local non-actors. It is supposedly based on actual events.
# Giddings Deutsches Volksblatt

The Giddings Deutsches Volksblatt was a trilingual German-American newspaper published in Giddings, Texas. Most of the content was in German, while many stories were in English and some short supplements were in Wendish (Sorbian), the language of Wendish settlers in that area of Texas, especially in nearby Serbin. In early years of publication, the newspaper included a Sorbian supplement. The Deutsches Volksblatt was designed to serve the German Texan community and especially the Wends scattered throughout Texas.
J. A. Proske and W. C. Vogel founded the newspaper in 1899. A sample issue was published on September 12 of that year, while the first full issue was published on October 1 of that year. The owners of the newspaper discontinued it in 1949 and transferred the subscriptions to their English-language newspaper, the Giddings Star.
# Delta Upsilon Chapter House

Delta Upsilon Chapter House is a historic building located in Ames, Iowa, United States. It is considered one of the more imposing architectural examples among fraternity chapter houses at Iowa State University.
It was designed by Des Moines architect Alexander M. Linn, who joined Delta Upsilon at what was then called Iowa State College. The fraternity's chapter house was on Hyland Avenue at that time. Completed in 1930, the 2½-story, French Renaissance-style building features brick and half-timbering wall surfaces, and a complex roof system that includes steep pitches and polychrome slate.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.

# Across to Singapore

Across to Singapore is a 1928 American silent romantic drama film directed by William Nigh, and starring Ramon Novarro, Joan Crawford and Ernest Torrence. The plot involves a love triangle between a woman and two brothers, set on board ship and in Singapore.
The screenplay was written by Ted Shane based on the novel All the Brothers Were Valiant by Ben Ames Williams. This was the second film based on the novel; the first was All the Brothers Were Valiant (1923, now lost). It was remade a third time in 1953, as All the Brothers Were Valiant.

## Plot

In 1857, Joel Shore (Ramon Novarro), the carefree youngest son of a seafaring family, has a flirtatious friendship with Priscilla Crowninshield (Joan Crawford), and he eventually falls in love with her. However, unbeknownst to him, Priscilla has been betrothed to Joel's much older brother, Mark (Ernest Torrence). The wedding is announced in church as a surprise, and Joel and Priscilla are both shocked, with Priscilla refusing to kiss Mark after the betrothal ceremony.
Mark, a ship's captain, sails to Singapore, accompanied by Joel and their other brothers. Priscilla tells Joel she had no idea about the marriage and tries to kiss him, but Joel is hurt and rebuffs Priscilla's advances before he leaves. At the same time, Mark, mad about Priscilla spurning him, drinks heavily during the voyage and begins to see hallucinations of Priscilla. He senses that Priscilla loves someone else and threatens to harm whoever it is, but Joel tells him she does not love anyone but Mark. Mark continues to drink once they arrive in Singapore, but a conspiratorial crew led by Finch (Jim Mason) sails from Singapore without him, with Mark killed in a bar fight. Joel is put in handcuffs for allegedly not coming to his brother's aid during the fight.
Reaching home, Joel is freed; he finds Priscilla, and, taking her with him, he returns to Singapore for Mark, as he does not believe Mark is dead. They arrive in Singapore six months after having left, and find Mark a drunken mess. Mark sees that Priscilla does not love him, and he steps aside for his brother.
