## Biography

Since 2011, King has written weekly for the National Public Radio blog Cosmos and Culture, which explores humans' relationships to each other, their environment, and the planet. Specifically, King focused often on the "inner lives" of intelligent animals like primates, the octopus, squid, pigs, and dolphins, arguing that humanity should consider how best to communicate and accommodate these species' lives without anthropomorphization or exploitation.
King also utilized the blog format to relate personal stories for a general audience, such as her treatment for uterine cancer (2013) and her retirement from active teaching (2015).
King has been a full-time science writer since 2015, publishing stories in Scientific American, book reviews in the Washington Post, and essays in The Atlantic.
A review for Animals’ Best Friends in the American Scientist described King as an "expert on animal cognition and emotion".

## Personal life

King is a pescatarian in her personal life, stating that she supplements her "almost-vegetarian" diet with occasional fish. She has also described herself as a "reducetarian".

# Very Slender Vessel

A Very Slender Vessel (VSV) is a high-speed, wave-piercing craft. It is designed to give a comfortable ride over long, high-speed transits in high seas.
Normal boats travelling at high speed in rough seas can produce a very uncomfortable ride with g-force as high as 20g. Wave piercing vessels avoid this by going through waves instead of over them, at speeds that can exceed 60 knots (110 km/h).

## Military
### North Korea

It was revealed in 2015 that North Korea had under development a VSV attack boat, reported to be deployed on the western side of the Korean peninsula. It was first detected on trials by satellite surveillance late in 2014. The first images of the completed vessel were released by North Korean media in July 2018, after a visit to the Chongjin shipyard by leader Kim Jong-un.

### Singapore

The Singapore Army operates VSV craft in special forces units. It was speculated in 2018 that they were to be replaced by new craft.

### United Kingdom

VSV craft such as the Royal Marine VSV are used by the Royal Marines and the Special Boat Service.

# BR-277 (Brazil highway)

BR-277 is a federal highway of Brazil, across the state of Paraná, between the town of Paranaguá and Foz do Iguaçu.

## Economic importance

The highway has high economic importance for Brazil and even for Paraguay, as it connects the Brazil-Paraguay border with Port of Paranaguá. On the border there is intense trade between the two countries; there is great tourism in the Foz do Iguaçu area due to the border trade and mainly because of the Iguaçu Falls. In Paraná, there is a large production of soy, corn, chicken, milk, cellulose and fish, among other products (which are exported in Paranaguá), and Paraguay uses the port to carry out part of its exports.

## Duplications

The highway is duplicated in the 140 km between the Port of Paranaguá, Curitiba and the junction with the BR-376.
BR-277, as well as BRs 369 and 376, which form a triangle within the state of Paraná, were granted to private companies in 1997, at the beginning of the era of road concessions in Brazil. The contracts are valid until 2021. Initially, 995 km of roads in Paraná should be duplicated, and the population was promised that the State would have First World highways, strongly boosting economic growth. But additions were soon signed that removed duplications and other works from the contracts. The duplication commitment fell from 995 to 616 km. To make matters worse, in 2019, what had been doubled was no more than 300 km, even with toll rates rising every year. The MPF (Federal Public Ministry) then carried out Operation Integration, which showed that the changes made to the contracts are part of a millionaire kickback scheme. The companies paid at least R $ 35 million in fees to achieve these changes in contracts. The estimated diversion of money in the toll system amounts to R $ 8.4 billion. Some of those cited by the MPF to receive these fees are: Jaime Lerner, Roberto Requião and Beto Richa, all former governors of the State of Paraná, and the concessionaires Rodonorte, Econorte, Ecovía, Ecocataratas, Caminhos do Paraná and Viapar.
For the next concession, to take place in 2021, the Federal Government, under the command of Jair Bolsonaro, and the Government of the State of Paraná, under the command of Ratinho Júnior, intend, together, adopt a model with lower tariffs, ensure that duplications occur quickly, and also ensure transparency in spending.

# Frederick James Walker

Frederick James 'Frank' Walker (1876 – 19 May 1914) was an Irish motorcycle racer who competed at the Isle of Man TT races.
A hat manufacturer by trade and native of Kingstown, County Dublin, Ireland, Frank Walker competed at the 1914 TT races riding a Royal Enfield motorcycle in the Junior TT race. After leading on the first lap, Walker suffered tyre problems and eventually dropped to sixth place. After regaining third place by lap 5, Walker ran wide into a ditch at Hillberry and was thrown over the handle-bars. After recovering his motorcycle, Walker continued on the last lap but fell at Willaston Corner on Ballanard Road after locking both wheels under braking. Again managing to continue, on the short distance to the finish his view of the finish-line was obscured by spectators who had spilled onto the road to watch the competitors cross the finish-line. Passing the judges-box at the finish-line, Walker continued at full racing speed through St. Ninians Crossroads and collided with a wooden barrier across Ballaquayle Road, was thrown from his motorcycle and taken to hospital where he died of his injuries. Later, Walker was posthumously declared third-place finisher by the ACU race committee in the Junior TT race won by Eric Williams.

# Barbara Gertrude Yates

Barbara Gertrude Yates (1919–1998) was an Irish mathematician who seems to have been the first woman born and brought up in Ireland to gain a PhD in pure mathematics.

## Life and career

She was born in January 1919 in Dublin, to a family with a tradition of excelling in mathematics at Trinity College Dublin. Her Offaly-born father James Yates (1869–1929) had been a Trinity Scholar in Mathematics prior to his graduation in 1891, and was a school inspector in various parts of Ireland until 1922, when the whole family moved to Belfast following the partition of Ireland. Her older brothers Henry George Yates (1908–1954) and James Garrett Yates (1917–1957) had also been Trinity Scholars in Mathematics, in 1927 and 1936 respectively. She herself received that distinction in 1940, graduating BA in mathematics in 1941.
She was on the teaching staff at Queen's University Belfast 1942–1945, then at the University of Aberdeen 1945–1948, following which she moved to Royal Holloway College, where she lectured until her retirement at age 65. In 1952 she completed her PhD, awarded the following year by the University of Aberdeen, with a thesis entitled "A difference-differential equation". Her advisor was E. M. Wright.
# Breaking the Balls of History

Breaking the Balls of History is the tenth studio album by American indie rock band Quasi, released on February 10, 2023, through Sub Pop. It was the band's first album in 10 years, following Mole City (2013), and was produced by John Goodmanson. The album received acclaim from critics.

## Background

Vocalist and drummer Janet Weiss broke her legs and collarbone in a car crash in 2019, and by the time she had healed, the world was experiencing lockdowns as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, so she worked on the album with bandmate Sam Coomes.

## Critical reception

| DIY | |
| Exclaim! | 8/10 |

| PopMatters | 8/10 |
| Uncut | 9/10 |
Breaking the Balls of History received a score of 82 out of 100 on review aggregator Metacritic based on 10 critics' reviews, indicating "universal acclaim". Uncut called it "pure, distilled Quasi" and felt that "Sam Coomes's songs are all killer. [...] Janet Weiss, meanwhile, once again proves herself to be a fine vocal foil, and perhaps the greatest rock drummer alive". Mojo stated called it Quasi's "most corrosive cocktail yet of melodious sunshine pop and blackly comedic lyrics". DIY's Elvis Thirlwell described it as "an effervescence of headlong, wind-slicing garage rock that's equal parts brazen, jubilant and loud" with tracks that "land someplace cool between corny absurdity, and wry sincerity. Littered with askew lyrical turns".
Christopher J. Lee of PopMatters felt that the album "continues [the band's] momentum of irrepressible songcraft. Carrying the torch for three decades now, Quasi have become one of the more enduring musical collaborations out of the Pacific Northwest, and this is a peak moment in their discography. After ten years of patience, Quasi deserve their due". Exclaim!'s Alan Ranta stated that Weiss and Coombes "have never sounded more together, more single-minded and strong-willed. They made an album that needed to be made". Nina Corcoran of Pitchfork wrote that Quasi "sound rejuvenated and youthful, but they forget to look beyond the moment that prompted their rebirth" and remarked that the album "has a blurry quality: a jumble of all-too-familiar thoughts that never add up to a breakthrough".
