## Production

Prawin Avyukth, known for directing short films like Saha, Gumma, and Kalla Kannu, makes his feature film debut with this film. Prawin Avyukth's initial preference for the lead role was an actor like Darshan or Sudeepa. However, as a newcomer, he was unable to cast them, and instead opted for Rajavardan after being impressed by his performance in Bicchugatti, particularly in the film's fight sequences. In February 2022, it was announced that Rihana would play the female lead in the film, marking her Kannada debut. Principal photography was reportedly set to commence on 21 February 2022. In March 2022, it was reported that Bigg Boss Kannada season 8 fame Divya Suresh would be joining the sets from 9 March 2022. The title Hiranya was originally registered under Dhananjaya's banner, but he granted permission for Rajavardan to use it for his film. The film was primarily shot in and around Bangalore. The film's fight sequences were choreographed by Vinod and Arjun. The film was produced by Vigneshwara Gowda and Vijay Gowda Bidharahalli under the banner of Vedas Infinite Pictures.

## Soundtrack

The soundtrack was composed by Judah Sandhy. The song "Nanagantaane" was released on 26 June 2024.

## Release

The film was released theatrically on 19 July 2024.

## Reception

A critic from The Times of India rated the film three out of five stars and wrote that "The movie follows the usual tried and tested action film formula, but several twists keep the audience hooked to the screen." Shashiprasad SM of Times Now gave it two-and-a-half out of five stars and wrote that "It's a baby's day out but with a hitman, who first kidnaps and then does everything to save the baby. Hiranya is a one-time watch but be ready for the overloaded action and drama that comes along with it."
Y Maheswara Reddy of Bangalore Mirror wrote, "Rihana, who debuts as a heroine with this movie, has acted well. Huli Karthik and Aravind Rao have given good support. The disadvantage of the movie is too many twists and action scenes. It is worth a watch if you enjoy action films." A Sharadhaa of Cinema Express noted that "The film explores shades of good and evil while crafting a narrative that transcends mere action and inviting viewers to contemplate the transformative power of unexpected events and choices during moments of conflict".
# Karen Bjorndal

Karen Anne Bjorndal is an American biologist focusing in nutritional ecology, with an emphasis on vertebrate herbivores and the biology of sea turtles. She is a Distinguished Professor of Biology at the University of Florida and Director of the Archie Carr Center for Sea Turtle Research (ACCSTR).

## Education

After her junior year at Occidental College, Bjorndal spent six months on the Galápagos Islands studying land iguanas. Upon her return, and completion of her degree, Bjorndal was convinced she wanted to write her PhD thesis on sea turtles. However, Dr Archie Carr refused to accept doctoral students who wished to focus on sea turtles as he felt it was too broad of a topic for a dissertation. After camping outside his house, penning letters, and digitizing his data, Bjorndal convinced Carr to Chair her Doctoral Committee. She worked alongside Carr after publishing her thesis Nutrition and grazing behavior of the green turtle, Chelonia mydas, a seagrass herbivore and took over his efforts at the Centre for Sea Turtle Research once he died.

## Career

In 1987, Bjorndal was promoted to director of the Archie Carr Center for Sea Turtle Research at the University of Florida.

## Recognition

In 2023, Bjorndal was elected as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
# Seleucia Samulias

Seleucia Samulias – Seleucia (Greek: Σελεύκεια) also transliterated as Seleukeia or Seleukheia; in the Talmud, Selik, Selika, and Selikos; in the Aramaic Targum, Salwaḳia or Salwaḳya – was a Hellenistic colony founded about the end of the 3rd century BC on Lake Merom. According to the inference of Grätz, based on the scholium to Meg. Ta'an., the remnant of the Pharisees spared by Alexander Jannæus found a refuge there. Seleucia and Sogane were the first cities, after Gamala, to revolt from Agrippa in the Jewish Revolt of 66. In his enumeration of the places conquered by Alexander Jannæus in eastern Syria, Josephus locates the town near Lake Semechonitis (Lake Merom) (Bell. Jud. iv. 1, § 1). Targum Pseudo-Jonathan and Targum Neofiti translate Salecah in Deuteronomy 3:10 as Seleucia, though the biblical Salecah was probably in the eastern Bashan, perhaps at contemporary Salkhad.

# Rowton Houses

Rowton Houses was a chain of hostels built in London, England, by the Victorian philanthropist Lord Rowton to provide decent accommodation for working men in place of the squalid lodging houses of the time.
George Orwell, in his 1933 book Down and Out in Paris and London, wrote about lodging houses:
   The best are the Rowton Houses, where the charge is a shilling, for which you get a cubicle to yourself, and the use of excellent bathrooms. You can also pay half a crown for a 'special', which is practically hotel accommodation. The Rowton Houses are splendid buildings, and the only objection to them is the strict discipline, with rules against cooking, card playing, etc.
The Rowton Houses throughout London were:
* Rowton House, 1 – 9 Bondway, Vauxhall, 1892
* Kings Cross, 1894 (the serial killer John Christie stayed here for four nights in 1953 shortly before his arrest). Rowton House at King’s Cross continued in operation until 1960. The building was renovated for £300,000 and opened on 9 October 1961 as the Mount Pleasant Hotel.
* Parkview House in Newington Butts, 1897. Became the London Park Hotel in the 1970s. Demolished as part of a major redevelopment of the area in 2007.
* Hammersmith, 1897, later demolished
* Tower House in Whitechapel, 1902. The building has since been developed into luxury housing. Joseph Stalin stayed there for a fortnight in 1907.
* Arlington House in Camden Town, 1905. The last and largest of the Houses, and the only one to remain in use as of 2023 , with supported accommodation for 95 homeless people, other affordable accommodation, and a conference centre. For its first 80 years it had capacity for 1,200 tenants.
The architect for the bulk of the houses was Harry Bell Measures FRIBA, who also designed the tube stations for the Central London Railway in 1900 and was well known as the designer of many army barracks.
There was also a Rowton House in Highgate, Birmingham, which opened on 29 June 1903. It was built by the Birmingham Rowton Houses Ltd, from the designs and under the supervision of Measures. This building later became a hotel.

# Lekach

Lekach is a honey-sweetened cake made by Jews, especially for the Jewish holiday of Rosh Hashanah. Known in Hebrew as ugat dvash (עוּגַת דְּבַשׁ‎, lit. 'honey cake'), the word lekach (לעקעך‎) is Yiddish. Lekach is one of the symbolically significant foods traditionally eaten by Ashkenazi Jews at Rosh Hashanah in hopes of ensuring a sweet New Year. It is also customary to ask for and receive Lekach on Erev Yom Kippur.

## History

Various sorts of cakes sweetened with honey have been known since ancient times, in Egypt, Rome, and the Middle East. Arabs brought these traditions to Sicily and Moorish Spain. In the 11th century, a type of strongly spiced thick cake made from breadcrumbs and honey, resembling panforte, became popular in Italy. Italian Jews brought some of these styles to Western and Central Europe. The earliest known record in a Jewish source of a cake called lekach, from the Middle High German lecke, 'to lick', was in the Medieval ages in Sefer ha-Rokeach by Eleazar ben Judah of Worms, Germany.
Many Ashkenazi versions by the 13th century were influenced by or based on Lebkuchen or Honigkuchen (honey cake) recipes found in Germany. Such heavily spiced cakes, analogous to the English gingerbread, became popular all over medieval Europe in communities of all religions, especially during important feasts and holidays. Lekach has changed drastically over the centuries, such that its current forms bear little resemblance to its ancestors. There are now many variations, ranging from dark and heavy to lighter more delicate versions, though in general it is never frosted. Lekach was brought to the Land of Israel by Ashkenazi immigrants.

## Overview

A very traditional honey cake from the Jewish community of Austria contains an equal weight of white rye flour and dark honey, strong Austrian coffee instead of water, cloves, cinnamon, allspice, and golden raisins in the loaf, with slivered almonds on top of the loaf. It also has a fair number of eggs, vegetable oil (usually corn oil), salt, and baking powder.

## Variations

Recipes vary widely. Lekach is usually a dense, loaf-shaped cake, but some versions are similar to sponge cake or pound cake, with the addition of honey and spices, sometimes with coffee or tea for coloring. Other versions are more like gingerbread, pain d'épices, or lebkuchen.
# White knight

A white knight is a mythological figure and literary stock character. They are portrayed alongside a black knight as diametric opposites. A white knight usually represents a heroic warrior fighting against evil, with the role in medieval literature being represented by a knight-errant.

## Mythology

The idea of a positive and negative color symbol being diametrically opposed is very common in ancient mythology, of which the white and black knights are one example, with others including the white horse and black horse from Indo-Aryan mythology. The white color symbolized innocence, illumination, openheartedness, and gladness.

## Modern use

The term "white knight" is used in modern-day parlance to mean any kind of savior, although it is also specifically used in a business context to describe a person or corporation that saves another company from a hostile takeover and acquires its assets.
"White knight" is also used in slang to refer to men who are trying to curry the favor of women by protecting them, alongside other, similar terms, such as "simp" or "whipped". The usage of the term implies that these men, when doing nice things for women, are motivated only by sexual desires.

## Historical origins

Although the term 'white knight' has taken on a colloquial meaning in modern English, the White Knight was a historical noble title in the peerage of Ireland, first bestowed upon the Fitzgibbon family by King Edward III in 1333 AD. The other two Irish hereditary knighthoods are the Knight of Glin (also called the Black Knight), and the Knight of Kerry (also called the Green Knight).
# Daniel Harrwitz

Daniel Harrwitz (22 February 1821 – 2 January 1884) was a German chess master.
Harrwitz was born in Breslau (Wrocław) in the Prussian Province of Silesia. Harrwitz's correct birth and death dates (22 February 1821 and 2 January 1884 respectively) were established by Luca D'Ambrosio in Chess Notes item 6286. He established his reputation in Paris, particularly as a player of blindfold games. He lost a match in England to Howard Staunton in 1846 at odds of a pawn and two moves, and drew a match with Adolf Anderssen in Germany in 1848.
Harrwitz lived in England from 1849, and founded the British Chess Review. In 1856, he moved to Paris, where he won a match against Jules Arnous de Rivière. In 1858, he played a match against Paul Morphy in Paris. Harrwitz won the first two games, but lost the match 5½-2½. Harrwitz withdrew from the match, allegedly on grounds of ill health. He subsequently retired to the Austro-Hungarian county of Tyrol, dying in Bolzano in 1884.

## Game against Morphy

Although he had a negative record against Morphy, he was one of a few masters who beat Morphy with the black pieces. Here is one of his wins in Paris in 1858:
    1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 exd4 4.Qxd4 Nc6 5.Bb5 Bd7 6.Bxc6 Bxc6 7.Bg5 Nf6 8.Nc3 Be7 9.0-0-0 0-0 10.Rhe1 h6 11.Bh4 Ne8 12.Bxe7 Qxe7 13.e5 Bxf3 14.gxf3 Qg5+ 15.Kb1 dxe5 16.Rxe5 Qg2 17.Nd5 Qxh2 18.R5e1 Qd6 19.Rg1 Kh7 20.Qe3 f5 21.Nf4 Qb6 22.Qe2 Rf7 23.Qc4 Qf6 24.Nh5 Qe7 25.Rde1 Qd7 26.a3 Nd6 27.Qd4 Rg8 28.Rg2 28.
