# Thora Knudsen

Thora Alvilda Knudsen (1861–1950) was a Danish nurse, women's rights activist and philanthropist. She became an active member of the Danish Nurses' Organization from its establishment in 1899 and, campaigning for women's suffrage, was elected to serve as a member of the Copenhagen City Council (Borgerrepræsentation) in 1909 after women were permitted to participate in municipal elections. A frequent speaker at the meetings of the Danish Women's Society, she served on the board from 1911. As a philanthropist, she supported several relief organizations including the Diakonissestiftelsen and the Danish Red Cross.

## Biography

Born in Stærrede near Bisserup in north-western Zealand, Thora Alvilda Knudsen was the second of the three daughters of the farmer and local judge Harald Valdemar Fiedler (1808–1887) and Marie Sophie Kirstine Jensen (1830–1905). After working on and off as a teacher at the Tegneskolen for Kvinder from 1876 to 1886, together with her two sisters she decided to become a nurse, the up-and-coming profession for young ladies at the time.
After only nine months as an apprentice at Frederiks Hospital in Copenhagen, she applied for the post of head nurse of operations which led to employment in a primitive operating theatre until she was transferred to a ward with six colleagues. One of her patients was a member of the royal family which helped her later advancement.
In 1891, she married Morten Ole Knudsen, a reserve doctor at the hospital and retired from nursing but continued to be an active member of the Nurses' Organization. A keen proponent of women's suffrage, she was the leading candidate for the Conservatives in the 1909 municipal election, the first in which women could participate. She completed just one term as a member of the city council where she attempted unsuccessfully to serve as one of two citizens' representatives on the committee for the coming parliamentary elections. While some of her colleagues thought it was a good idea, she reported that one of them had stated that "women had absolutely no place there as they had no right to vote."
She was a frequent speaker at the Danish Women's Society, becoming a board member in 1911. Even after women were given the right to vote in 1915, she stressed the need for women to participate in public life and speak up at meetings. She believed that unless women became active, unfair treatment of the sexes would continue. In 1920, she was a candidate for Venstre but was unsuccessful.
As a philanthropist, she gave support to needy children, the sick and the elderly, and worked for the Deaconess' Foundation (Diakonissestiftelsen), the Red Cross, the Welander Home and the Society for the Fight against Sexual Diseases.
Thora Knudsen died on 23 January 1950 in Copenhagen.
# Takilma, Oregon

Takilma is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP) in Josephine County, Oregon, United States, 10 miles (16 km) south of Cave Junction. It is located on the East Fork Illinois River, about a mile southeast of the ghost town of Waldo. As of the 2010 census, it had a population of 378.
Takilma is considered an alternative community and an informal artist colony, which is home to several artists, such as Kendall Art Glass. It may be best known as the site of a tree house resort operated by Out'n'About.

## History

According to Oregon Geographic Names, Takilma was originally called "Taklamah", probably by Col. T. W. Draper of the Waldo Copper Company for an Indian chief. The name was changed to "Takilma" in 1902, after the Takelma tribe, who lived on the Rogue River. The Takilma post office operated from 1902 until 1967. After that time the building became a general store, but was burned to the ground in 1988 after a man was murdered by the store's owner.

### Counterculture

In the winter of 1968, hippies began moving into the Illinois Valley as part of the back to the land movement, notably into Takilma. Signs stating "We do not solicit hippy patronage" soon appeared in the windows of Cave Junction businesses. Despite this, the hippies stayed and became a force in the community. They founded the Takilma People's Clinic and later the Siskiyou Community Health Center, the Dome School, the Illinois Valley Fire District's Takilma station, the Siskiyou Regional Education Project and the Jefferson Baroque Orchestra.
The Takilma People's Clinic was started in 1973, bringing the first new doctor to the Illinois Valley in years. The 1987 Longwood fire forced the clinic, now called the Siskiyou Community Health Center, to move into Cave Junction. It has since spawned sister clinics in Grants Pass and Roseburg. The Dome School opened in 1975 as an alternative to public education. It educates about 60 preschool through high school children each year, and runs a federally funded summer program for at risk children. The Illinois Valley Fire District's Takilma station was organized in the late 1970s and worked the firelines during the 1987 Longwood fire. The Jefferson Baroque Orchestra was formed in 1994 by Takilma resident Jim Rich, and is now in its 20th season, with performances in Grants Pass and Ashland.
Many of the hippies were activists from California universities. They created Takilma's environmental organization, the Siskiyou Regional Education Project, in 1982. A 1996 proposal for a prison near Cave Junction and Takilma brought the two communities together, but environmental issues still create a divide between them.
# Thora Melsted

Thora Melsted (1823 – 1919) was an Icelandic educator. She was a pioneer in the education of women in Iceland.
She was born in Denmark to the Icelandic official Grímur Jónsson (1785-1849) and the Dane Birgitte Cecile Breum (1792–1853). She was raised in Iceland but lived in Denmark in 1833–1846, where she was given a good education. In 1851–53, she managed a small school for girls in Reykjavík, which was the first school for girls in Iceland. In 1859 she married the Icelandic official and politician Páll Melsteð.
She was active in the struggle to establish a permanent school for girls in Iceland. She organized a campaign and collected money for the purpose. In 1874, she achieved her ambition with the establishment of the Kvennaskólinn í Reykjavík (whose first principal she became), and was followed by the establishment by other schools for girls around Iceland. She was the principal of the school in 1874–1902.
# Luís Alves

Luís Manuel Rodrigues Alves (born 28 September 1971) is a Portuguese retired footballer who played as a forward.

## Football career

Born in Lisbon, Alves spent the majority of his career playing for third division clubs. He made his professional debuts in the 1990–91 season, with Odivelas F.C. in the fourth division.
Alves first came to prominence in 1999–2000, scoring nine goals for C.S.D. Câmara de Lobos in the third level and subsequently earning a contract with C.D. Nacional of division two, where he appeared sparingly over the course of three campaigns, being relegated in his second.
In the 2001 summer, after a failed second stint with Nacional, Alves moved to another team in Madeira, A.D. Camacha, netting 16 goals in his only season. He then signed for his fifth club in the region, A.D. Pontassolense (also in the third tier), where he repeated individual numbers in his first year.
In 2003–04, 32-year-old Alves scored 15 goals for Pontassolense, thus becoming the third division – south zone – runner-up topscorer behind S.C. Olhanense's Edinho. He only found the net five times in the following campaign and, subsequently, moved to amateur football where he played a couple of years for two sides before retiring.

# Manchurian plague

The Manchurian plague was a pneumonic plague that occurred mainly in Manchuria in 1910–1911. It killed 60,000 people, stimulating a multinational medical response and the wearing of the first personal protective equipment (PPE).

## History

The plague is thought to have originated from a tarbagan marmot infected with bacterial pneumonia. Tarbagan marmots were hunted for their fur in Manchuria. It was an airborne spread disease and was incredibly deadly, with a near 100 percent mortality rate. Its spread was magnified by marmot hunters gathering in the bitter winter months, and the eventual travel of migrant workers during the Chinese New Year. Russia and Japan both had economic interests in the region and needed to cooperate with Chinese authorities.
The Cambridge-trained doctor Wu Lien-teh led Chinese efforts to end the plague, and promoted quarantine and the wearing of cloth face masks. He also convened the International Plague Conference in Mukden in April 1911, the first major event of its kind that brought together an international team of scientists concerned with disease control.
The Chinese government also sought the support of foreign doctors, a number of whom died as a consequence of the disease. In Harbin, this included the Frenchman Gérald Mesny, from the Imperial Medical College in Tientsin, who disputed Wu's recommendation of masks; a few days later, he died after catching the plague when visiting patients without wearing a mask. Another was the 26-year-old Arthur F. Jackson, a United Free Church of Scotland missionary doctor, who fell ill within eight days of inspecting and quarantining hundreds of poor laborers; he died two days later in Mukden.
In the end, the death toll reached some 60,000 lives. The hardest hit cities included Changchun, Harbin, and Mukden. Although the disease was largely confined to Manchuria, cases were found elsewhere in cities such as Beijing and Tianjin.

## Significance

The Manchurian plague is believed to have highlighted the importance of a multinational medical response, setting precedents for organizations such as the World Health Organization. Wu Lien-teh's widespread promotion of cloth plague mask-wearing by doctors, nurses, patients, contacts, and (to the degree that it was possible) the population at large was the first time such an epidemic containment measure had been attempted. The event was also influential in establishing the use of personal protective equipment to stop the spread of disease, and is credited for the origins of the modern hazmat suit.
Parallels have also been made between the management and control of the Manchurian plague and other outbreaks of infectious disease such as the Ebola epidemic in West Africa (2013–2016) and COVID-19 pandemic (2019–present).
# Thirupuram

Thirupuram is a village in Thiruvananthapuram district in the state of Kerala, India.
Thirupuram village is 6 km away from Neyyattinkara, 25 km away from the capital city Thiruvananthapuram. The famous Thirupuram Siva Temple is situated here. Thirupuram is also very near to the Poovar, Vizhinjam and Kovalam. This village is known for its celebration of the Sivarathri festival. It is believed that this is the place where lord Siva sits after the Thripura dahanam. Thus the village got the name Thripuram which later got changed to Thirupuram.

## Demographics

As of 2001 India census, Thirupuram had a population of 38373 with 18925 males and 19448 females.
# Lyme Brook

Lyme Brook is a tributary stream of the River Trent, which flows through Newcastle-under-Lyme, and the outlying areas of Stoke-on-Trent in Staffordshire, England.

## Course

Prior to the 20th century the upper course of the brook could be traced through the area to the north of Newcastle, but subsequent development and culverting means that only parts are now visible.
To the south of Newcastle town centre, the brook joins together with a number of its tributaries including the Silverdale and the Ashfield brooks. This area between Rotterdam and Pool Dam was important historically, as the water from the brooks was dammed to form a protective pool around the ‘new’ motte-and-bailey castle in the 12th century, after which the town is named.
From Pool Dam, the brook has been designated as main river, which flows south-east in a narrow valley, between Clayton and Trent Vale, where it forms the boundary between Newcastle and Stoke. The brook then passes next to the Clayton Wood Training Ground and under the A500 dual carriage-way, joining the Trent near Hanford.
The catchment or drainage basin lies between that of the Fowlea Brook to the north and east, and that of the Park brook to the south, and has an area of 31 square kilometres (12 sq mi).

## Floods

The brook is capable of causing flooding, and was the subject of a flood alleviation scheme in the 1990s by the National Rivers Authority. The completed scheme was commemorated by a sculpture on the Brook Lane bridge, known as The Return. The 1995 carved stone sculpture by local artist Ian Randall, shows a cascade of fish returning to the brook.
A flood warning service is provided for the brook, and encompasses areas at risk such as, Brook Lane, Hatrell Street and the Lyme Valley sports fields.

## Pollution and ecology

Along with other watercourses draining the Potteries such as Ford Green Brook and the Fowlea Brook, Lyme brook suffered from pollution as the area developed following the Industrial Revolution with sewage effluent from Newcastle being discharged into the brook. The building of sewerage treatment works removed the gross pollution, but problems still persisted.
Lyme brook is classed as having poor ecological quality under the Water Framework Directive, having improved from bad in 2015. The bands in the five part framework scale are high, good, moderate, poor and bad. Problems include poor water quality and low levels of aquatic ecology. Work to improve the brook is continuing and examples of improvement include the return of Brown Trout.
# Takuyo-Daini

Takuyo-Daini is a seamount in the Pacific Ocean.
Takuyo-Daini is part of the so-called "Seiko" cluster or the "Geisha Guyots" in the Japanese Seamounts; it lies just west of Takuyo-Daisan seamount with which it forms a pair. Takuyo-Daini rises from a depth of 5,195 metres (17,044 ft) to a minimum depth of 1,420 metres (4,660 ft) and has a regular round shape with a small volume of 2,237 cubic kilometres (537 cu mi). Both seamounts are guyots and together with two other guyots known as Winterer and Isakov have been interpreted as being part of a hotspot track.
The Western Pacific Ocean contains a large number of seamounts which often from clusters or groups. Many of them have flat tops 1–2 kilometres (0.62–1.24 mi) below sea level. A number of these formed during a large-scale volcanic episode in the Albian-Aptian era of the Cretaceous; this includes Takuyo-Daini, where radiometric dating has yielded ages of 118.6 million years ago. At the time of its formation this seamount was located in the central Pacific Ocean. Fossils of rudist bivalves have been found on Takuyo-Daini; the seamount once featured rudist reefs that ceased growing during the Albian. The rudist genera Magallanesia was discovered on Takuyo-Daini and on Cebu in the Philippines.
# Kosonsoy Mosque

The Kosonsoy Congregational Mosque (Uzbek: Kosonsoy Jome masjidi) is a historical monument (18th century) in Namangan, Uzbekistan. It is built on a courtyard surrounded by a wall. It can be entered through a portal with a dome on the south side, or through a carved door on the west side that leads to a rectangular mosque (28.6 x 10.8 m). The west wall has a three-niche mihrab. The external dome is supported by four arches (projecting from the corners). The four arches are based on four side wings, which are themselves supported by separate or wall-attached wooden columns. The building is mainly decorated with two colors (white and blue). The portal is simple, but elegant, with a row of small arches on the upper part, ending with a cornice, and surrounded by flat arches. The portal has a dome on each corner. In 1993, a veranda, classrooms and other additional buildings were constructed. The Kosonsoy Jome Mosque is the only prayer-style building in the Fergana Valley, and reflects the skill of local architects in construction.

## History of the mosque construction

The construction of the Jome Mosque in Kosonsoy began in the 17th century, during the reign of Abdullakhan. After the stones were piled up, a large bathhouse was built next to the mosque. The city's scholars gathered and prayed for the success of the mosque. A hundred years later, a gate was built in front of the mosque. The stones of the gate were brought from Oqqo'rg'on. During the former Soviet period, it was first used as a warehouse and then as a school. In 1991, with the honor of the independence of the Republic of Uzbekistan, this building was restored as a mosque. The materials used in the construction were clay, baked bricks, gypsum, and wood. The mosque has 84 rooms, a domed madrasa, and student rooms. The new building of the mosque was named after A'loxon Maxdum, who was buried nearby, in 1992. The portal and domes are decorated with carvings, paintings, embroidery, plasterwork, and fine art. There are 8 rooms, each 2m wide and 9m high. The width of the building is 27m, the height is 16m, and the dome height is 27m. The mosque can accommodate 7500 worshipers. The Jome Mosque is unique in Central Asia for its architecture and capacity.
