# Alex Baroni

Alessandro Guido "Alex" Baroni (22 December 1966 – 13 April 2002) was an Italian singer, active between 1994 and 2002. He released four albums during his lifetime. A fifth posthumous record, a tribute album, and two more collections (one of which double, both of them containing previously unreleased material, and his greatest songs) came out after his death in 2002.

## Early life and career

He was born to Carlo, a physicist, and Marina, a mathematician. His parents passed on their passion for science to both him and his younger brother Guido (also born on 22 December, but in 1968). In fact, Alex graduated in chemistry at the University of Milan and at the beginning of his career as a musician he worked for several years as a chemistry teacher in public and private technical institutes, while Guido graduated in mechanical engineering and obtained a chair at the Department of Electronics, Information and Bioengineering of the Polytechnic University of Milan.
From a very young age, Alex showed an innate passion for music; he began to cultivate this passion at the age of 17, after a motorbike accident – for which he also risked paralysis – forced him to bed for an entire year. At the end of the long hospital stay, in which he found in singing a fundamental distraction from the forced immobility, he took lessons from Luca Jurman, formed a group with some friends and started to perform in various clubs in Milan, proposing covers of funk, soul and blues songs composed by both American and Italian artists, first of all Pino Daniele.

## Personal life and death

Between 1997 and 2001, Baroni was in a relationship with fellow singer Giorgia.
In early 2002, after colliding with a car while driving his motorcycle in a Rome beltway, Baroni was hospitalized; he died several weeks later, on 13 April 2002.

# Alexander Aslanikashvili

Alexander Aslanikashvili (Georgian: ალექსანდრე ასლანიკაშვილი; March 17, 1916 – November 25, 1981) was a Georgian cartographer. Doctor of Geographical Sciences (1969). Corresponding member of the Georgian Academy of Sciences (1979). Professor of the Tbilisi State University and the Chair of Cartography and Geodesy (1973–81). Director of the Vakhushti Bagrationi Institute of Geography (1980–81). He developed his theory of cartography, which is called Metacartography.

## Biography

Alexander Aslanikashvili was born on March 17, 1916 in the Tbilisi. In 1934 he graduated from the Transcaucasian Technical School. From 1935 to 1939 he studied at the Faculty of Geography and Geology of the Tbilisi State University. During World War II, Alexander Aslanikashvili worked in the Department of Cartography of the Transcaucasian Military District and participated in the creation and specification of topography maps. From 1945 to 1951, he also worked at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Georgia. From 1951 to 1981 he worked at Vakhushti Bagrationi Institute of Geography. From 1951 to 1963 he was the Scientific Secretary of the Institute, and since 1957 the Head of the Cartography Department.
He combined logical thinking forms such as comparison, abstraction, generalization, analysis, synthesis and modeling with cartographic reflection, and therefore gave the definition of cartographic forms of comparison, analysis, synthesis, abstraction, generalization and modeling.
Scientific researches of Alexander Aslanikashvili clarified the cardinal problems of theory of cartography and methodological issues of mapping. He created and edited a lot of maps. Among them are the maps included in the "Atlas of Georgian SSR" (Tbilisi–Moscow, 1964). He is the author of fundamental works: "Cartography. Issues of general theory" (1968) and “Metacartography. Main problems" (1974), where fundamentally demonstrated the subject of cartography, the method and the language of the map, and he developed its theoretical fundamentals. In a basis of the theory of cartography its so-called big triad lies: subject, method and language. Alexander Aslanikashvili the concept called Metacartography.
The concept was considered as semiotic, unlike the cognitive geographic approach of the Moscow State university’s cartography school, but cartographer Konstantin Salishchev accepted the theory of Aslanikashvilli. The book “Metacartography“ was translated from English to Japanese by Tositomo Kanakubo in 1998. Aslanikashvili was awarded the State Prize of Georgia in 1971. He was also decorated with the Badge of Honour.

# Badimiella

Badimiella is a genus of lichen-forming fungi in the family Pilocarpaceae. It has two species of foliicolous (leaf-dwelling) lichens.

## Taxonomy

The genus was circumscribed in 1994 by lichenologists William McLagan Malcolm and Antonín Vězda. The genus name refers to the superficial resemblance of the apothecia to those to genus Badimia. Initially a monotypic genus, another species was transferred to Badimiella (from Cyphella) in 2001.

## Description

Badimiella lichens grow as a thin layer on the surface of plants. The apothecia, or fruiting bodies, of this genus are somewhat biatorine in nature, meaning they have a soft, light-coloured (not blackened) margin. These are sessile (attached directly without a stalk) and are tightly constricted at their base. The excipulum is made up of paraplectenchymatous tissue which appear clear or hyaline. This layer contains a lot of crystals which can dissolve when treated with a solution of potassium hydroxide. The epithecium, another layer atop the apothecium, is free from algae, granules or crystals.
Both the hypothecium (supporting layer beneath the hymenium) and the hymenium (fertile layer where spore development takes place) are clear in colour. The paraphyses, structures found within the hymenium, are mostly simple with few branches, and their tips are slightly swollen and clear.
The asci (sac-like structures) of Badimiella are of the Byssoloma-type and can range from club-shaped to cylinder-club shaped. They usually contain eight spores. The ascospores are generally narrow and ellipse-shaped with cross-walls. Rarely, they might also have a longitudinal division. These spores lack a distinct halo around them.
Conidiomata, the asexual fruiting bodies of this lichen, are campylidia-like in nature (a helmet-shaped structure found in some genera of foliicolous lichens). They stand upright, are membranous even when soaked, and do not contain algae. Initially, they resemble a helmet shape but open up as they mature. The inside layer of these structures is concave. The campylospores (asexual spores) can vary from ellipse-shaped to rod-shaped, are split into two by a septum, and are clear.

## Species

* Badimiella pteridophila (Sacc.) Garn.-Jones & Malcolm (2001)
* Badimiella serusiauxii Malcolm & Vězda (1994)
# Offbeat generation

The Offbeat generation was a loose association of like-minded writers working across different styles but united by their opposition to a mainstream publishing industry driven by marketing departments. The term—coined by Andrew Gallix in 3:AM Magazine in February 2006—was a pun on the Beat Generation but more likely to be associated with the Chemical generation immediately before it (who were anthologised at the Repetitive Beat Generation also).
In August 2007 Arena wrote of them: "Young, untamed, good-looking and as influenced by punk rock as they are by Proust, a new wave of loosely-linked writers dubbed The Off-Beat Generation have been blitzing the net with stories and poems via MySpace and supportive sites such as 3:AM Magazine to organise events and gain publicity."
The Arena article cited Tony O'Neill, Travis Jeppesen and Tao Lin as its key members. A piece on The Guardian website discussed possible overlaps with the Brutalists.
According to a February 2009 feature in the Spanish daily ABC, the members of the Offbeat Generation are Noah Cicero, Ben Myers, Andrew Gallix, Lee Rourke, Adelle Stripe, Tao Lin, Tom McCarthy, HP Tinker, Chris Killen, Heidi James and Tony O'Neill.
In June 2009, 3:AM Magazine referred to Dazed & Aroused, by Gavin James Bower, as "nothing less than a Less Than Zero for the Offbeat Generation".
# Alex Bruce (footballer, born 1952)

Alexander Robert Bruce (born 23 December 1952) is a Scottish footballer who played as a striker for Preston North End, Newcastle United and Wigan Athletic.
Born in Dundee, Scotland, Bruce began his career with Preston North End in 1971. He became a cult figure with the Preston supporters and was a prolific striker, finishing as the highest goal scorer, a club record, eight seasons out of ten during the 1970s and early 1980s. He remains to date the club's second highest all time goal scorer, only bettered by club stalwart Sir Tom Finney.
In January 1974 he joined Newcastle United for a fee reported as £140,000 or £150,000. He made his debut in February 1974 in a 3–1 defeat against Southampton and scored on his home debut at St James' Park but struggled to hold a regular first team place ahead of the club's more established strikers. He made 20 league appearances and scored three goals during his 18-month spell at the club. In August 1975, he re-joined his former club when Newcastle signed John Bird from Preston in exchange for Bruce and £60,000 – a transfer which prompted the resignation of Preston manager Bobby Charlton. On his return to Preston he struck up a successful strike partnership with Mike Elwiss and under manager Nobby Stiles helped guide Preston to league promotion in 1978, Bruce winning a golden boot by finishing the season as the league's highest goal scorer. He stayed at Preston until 1983 when he joined local side Wigan Athletic as a player and coach before retiring from football due to a knee injury in 1985.
Following football, Alex forged a successful career in leisure management and finished his career as Head of Leisure at South Ribble Borough Council.

# Okito box

The okito box is a cylindrical box fitted to the size of a coin, used to perform coin magic. Invented by Tobias Bamberg, better known by the stage name Okito, who first discovered the effect using a pill box for indigestion tablets. In effect, one or more coins placed in the box seems to vanish, appear and penetrate the box. This is used to achieve tricks such as "Coin Through the Box and Hand" as well as "Okito box, Coin and Handkerchief", in which a signed coin transports from the box into the knot of a handkerchief.
