# Comunismo a la tica

Comunismo a la tica (also known in Spanish as comunismo criollo) is a variant of communist thought developed by the Costa Rican politician Manuel Mora Valverde, that he sought to promote a communism different from that imposed by Moscow and the Comintern, and that, on the contrary, was based, according to him, "on Costa Rican democratic, pacifist and institutional principles, traditions and values".

## Characterization

Manuel Mora Valverde at one point was critical of the doctrine imposed by the Soviet Union on communist parties around the world, and especially Stalinism, but without approaching Trotskyism as it used to be. Mora, on the contrary, sought to carry out a socialist reform in Costa Rica through democratic elections and respecting certain Costa Rican traditions such as the Catholic religion.
Likewise, according to Mora, his proposal for communism not only supports the existence of a democratic regime, but also defends a deepening of democracy with an economic content.
Regarding the economic aspect, Mora maintained that he was not an enemy of small property, but of large property, as it is usually formed by destroying small property. Although he, likewise, affirmed that he did not have the immediate abolition of large property, but that it should be regulated "for the benefit of the people."
The more moderate positions of Mora and his followers led them into increasing confrontations with other more orthodox communist leaders such as Humberto Vargas Carbonell who wanted to make the changes through revolutionary and radical means. Which led, finally, to a fracture of Costa Rican communism that was divided into two blocks; Mora Valverde, who founded the Costa Rican People's Party, and Vargas Carbonell, who maintained control over Popular Vanguard.

# Exagon Furtive-eGT

The Exagon Furtive-eGT is a four-seat electric grand tourer sports car produced by Exagon Motors. It was unveiled at the 2010 Paris Motor Show as a concept. A slightly amended pre-production version was launched at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2013.
The Furtive-eGT has two electric water-cooled motors that spin at 10,000 rpm and a three speed semi-automatic transmission bringing it to a top speed of 155 mph (249 km/h). Each of the Exagon's motors develops 148 kW (198 hp; 201 PS), producing a maximum output of 402 hp (300 kW; 408 PS). This allows it to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.5 seconds. The lithium-ion battery has 53 kWh capacity providing a claimed range of 360 kilometers (223 miles) in the city, without memory effect and highly recyclable and a minimum capacity after 3,000 cycles (approximately 10 years of use) of over 80%.
Exagon says it used Formula One technology to develop the chassis, which consists of a carbon fiber/honeycomb structure monocoque to which cast aluminium subframes are attached. The body of the Furtive-eGT is also made from advanced composite materials and weighs 273 lb (124 kg).

# Mitochondrial dynamics protein MID49

Mitochondrial elongation factor 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MIEF2 gene.

## MID49 Protein Structure

The MID49 protein is used to assist in mitochondrial binary fission. It is a dynamic peripheral protein receptor found on the surface of the mitochondrial membrane. MID51 is a very similar protein and studies have shown that it has a variant nucleotidyl transferase structure which allows it to move phosphates as a co-factor. This structure and ability is essential because it allows it to interact with ADP which will activate the Drp1 protein. Further studies have shown that MID49 and MID51 are homologous in sequence and MID49 also has a nucleotidyl transferase domain but it is still unknown if MID49 can also bind a co-factor. Instead of a co-factor ligand, it was found that MID49 has a loop structure on its surface that allows it to physically interact with the Drp1 protein. To recap, the MID51 and MID49 are both similar proteins that recruit Drp1 protein to induce mitochondrial binary fission but they have small differences in structure which allows them to bind Drp1 in different ways.

## MID49 Protein's Role in Mitochondrial Binary Fission

The MID49 peripheral protein will attract the Drp1 to the surface of the mitochondrial membrane which then induces endoplasmic reticulum contact. The ER then releases Ca2+ into the mitochondria once there is physical contact at the membrane. The influx of calcium induces a constriction response in the mitochondria. With this constriction in the middle, the MID49 keeps recruiting more and more Drp1 proteins to make a sort of chain structure to wrap around that narrowed area called the oligomeric ring. The Drp1 proteins will eventually disassociate with the MID49 proteins through hydrolysis which causes a much tighter constriction around the mitochondria. There are still studies being done to confirm if this constriction alone will then split the mitochondria in the middle to complete a binary fission event.

## Function

This gene encodes an outer mitochondrial membrane protein that functions in the regulation of mitochondrial morphology. It can directly recruit the fission mediator dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) to the mitochondrial surface. The gene is located within the Smith-Magenis syndrome region on chromosome 17. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011].

# Émile Fabre

Émile Fabre (24 March 1869 in Metz, France – 25 September 1955 in Paris) was a French playwright and general administrator of the Comédie-Française from 1915 to
1936.$^{:227}$ He was greatly influenced by Balzac as a young man, and most of his best-known plays deal with the sacrifice of personal happiness to the pursuit of wealth. He also wrote the libretto for Xavier Leroux's opera Les cadeaux de Noël (The Christmas Gifts) which was a great success when it premiered in Paris in 1915.

## Career at the Comédie-Française

Fabre was appointed general administrator of the Comédie-Française on 2 December 1915.$^{:227}$ According to Susan McCready,
   During Fabre's tenure, the Comédie-Française moved from the center of the theatre scene, where theatrical creation and innovation are paramount, to its periphery, where [ . . . ] its role was increasingly limited to the preservation of the past.$^{:2}$
In 1922 he organised the Cycle Moliere, in which all of Moliere's plays were performed in chronological order.$^{:231}$
The success of this event, encouraged him to organise the Centennial of Romanticism in 1927, the 100-year anniversary of Victor Hugo's Preface de Cromwell (Qe Waleffe).$^{:232}$ Over the course of the Centennial the theatre staged twenty-one Romantic plays.
He resigned from the position 15 October 1936.$^{:227}$

## Plays

Fabre's plays include:
* L'Argent (Money), 1895
* La Vie publique (Public Life), 1901
* Les Ventres dorés (Gilded Stomachs), 1905

## Life

He was born in Edinburgh in 1566 the son of Helen Ramsey and her husband James Aikenhead, a town burgess. He was descended from the Aikenheads of Lanarkshire.
In 1620 he succeeded Alexander Clerk as Provost of Edinburgh. In 1622 Clerk (then known as Alexander Clerk of Stenton) regained office. Aikinhead was elected again in 1625 and then served for 5 years, being replaced by Clerk's son, Alexander Clerk of Pittencrieff. In his second term of office Aikenhead was responsible for major improvements and reorganisation of the University of Edinburgh.
He died in Edinburgh on 13 August 1637 aged 71. He was buried within the interior of Greyfriars Kirk but was removed (with others) to the exterior (the north-east outer face of the church) following the fire of 1845.

## Family

He was father of James Aikenhead, an advocate, and a Commissioner representing Edinburgh 1672/73.
Around 1650 his granddaughter Jane Aikenhead (daughter of his son Alexander Aikenhead WS) married Adam Nisbet, son of Sir Alexander Nisbet (nephew of provost William Nisbet of Dean) and his wife Katherine Hay. They were parents to the antiquarian Alexander Nisbet.
His younger brother (or cousin) Thomas Aikenhead was the last person in Scotland executed for blasphemy.

# Łagiewniki, Kielce County

Łagiewniki is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Chmielnik, within Kielce County, Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship, in south-central Poland. It lies approximately 4 km (2 mi) east of Chmielnik and 32 km (20 mi) south-east of the regional capital Kielce.
# Dasymeter

A dasymeter was meant initially as a device to demonstrate the buoyant effect of gases like air (as shown in the adjacent pictures). A dasymeter which allows weighing acts as a densimeter used to measure the density of gases.

## Principle

The Principle of Archimedes permits to derive a formula which does not rely on any information of volume: a sample, the big sphere in the adjacent images, of known mass-density is weighed in vacuum and then immersed into the gas and weighed again.
    ${\frac {\text{density of sphere}}{\text{density of gas}}}={\frac {\text{weight of sphere}}{{\text{weight of sphere}}-{\text{weight of immersed sphere}}}}\,$
(The above formula was taken from the article buoyancy and still has to be solved for the density of the gas.)
From the known mass density of the sample (sphere) and its two weight-values, the mass-density of the gas can be calculated as:
    ${\text{density of gas}}={\frac {{\text{weight of sphere}}-{\text{weight of immersed sphere}}}{\text{weight of sphere}}}\times {\text{density of sphere}}$

## Construction and use

It consists of a thin sphere made of glass, ideally with an average density close to that of the gas to be investigated. This sphere is immersed in the gas and weighed.

## History of the dasymeter

The dasymeter was invented in 1650 by Otto von Guericke. Archimedes used a pair of scales which he immersed into water to demonstrate the buoyant effect of water. A dasymeter can be seen as a variant of that pair of scales, only immersed into gas.
# Dasycephala

Dasycephala may refer to:
* Dasycephala, a taxonomic synonym for Attila, a genus of tropical birds
* Dasycephala, a taxonomic synonym for Dasycorsa, a genus of moths
* Dasycephala, a taxonomic synonym for Spermacoce, a genus of flowering plants
# Charles William Mitchell

Charles William Mitchell (1854–1903) was an English Pre-Raphaelite painter from Newcastle. A contemporary of John William Waterhouse, his work is similar in many ways. His one famous piece was Hypatia, shown in 1885 and likely inspired by the Charles Kingsley serialized novel Hypatia, or New Foes with an Old Face. This painting is currently in the Laing Art Gallery.
# Miya Shoji

Miya Shoji is a manufacturer and retailer of shōji, futons, and other Japanese furniture based in New York City. It was founded in 1951 to make shōji. Hisao Hanafusa, the shop's current owner, started working there after he immigrated to the US in 1963 and purchased the shop in 1970. It is now owned by him as well as his son Zui. It is notable for making double-sided shōji, which use a second wooden frame to make them sturdier. Many of its designs are original, with Hanafusa describing them as "nothing like what you would see in Japan." However the carpenters still use traditional tools and methods to make the pieces.
While the shop specializes in shōji, it also manufactures futons, tables, tansu, and mizuya. The wood used is from both Japan and the US.
Miya Shoji's work has been featured in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
It is the only Japanese carpentry shop in NYC.
