# Confucian view of marriage

To the Confucians, marriage is of important significance both in the family and in society. The Confucian classic Book of Rites described marriage as "the union of two surnames, in friendship and in love". In the perspective of family, marriage can bring families of different surnames (different clans) together, and continue the family life of the concerned clans. Therefore, only the benefits and demerits of the clans, instead of the individual couples, are concerned in a marriage. Socially, a married couple is the basic unit of the population; sometimes marriages can affect the country's political stability and international relations (especially to certain foreign tribes like Mongolians, Manchus, Huns, and Turks); thus marriage can be related to politics.
From the point of view of Confucian philosophy, one of the purposes of marriage is the cultivation of virtue. In the Chinese term for marriage (Chinese: 婚姻; pinyin: hūn yīn), hūn (婚) is derived from hūn (昏, literally means "evening" or "dusk") in ancient writings, though the former has the radical character nǚ (女, literally means a female). This is because wedding ceremonies were typically performed in the evenings when yang (representing days/male) and yin (representing nights/female) cross over. 婚 was defined as the father of a man's wife (e.g. a man's father-in-law) in Erya, but now it generally means "marriage" in Modern Standard Chinese. Yīn (姻), on the other hand, was defined as the father of a daughter's husband in Erya, but now generally means "marriage" or "relation by marriage" in Modern Chinese. The character has the same pronunciation as its phonetic component 因 (yīn). According to Shuowen Jiezi, a dictionary of ancient Chinese characters, 因 in this character is not only a phonetic component but also means to "go to" one's husband.

## Further influences on marriage

Due to the concept of filial piety and following rites of propriety, marriage was a costly affair and seen as second only to funeral ceremonies. The use of a matchmaker was meant to ensure that the husband and wife were compatible with each other and that the marriage followed proper rituals, but primarily worked in the families' best interests.

# Conrad Hinrich Donner

Conrad Hinrich Donner (11 April 1774, in Altona – 1 January 1854) was a German banker and art collector.

## Life

Conrad Hinrich Donner was the son of Johann Christian Donner (1739-1804), a buyer and the Danish consul in Hamburg and Maria Anterrer (1742-1802) from Altona. Donner was at first the owner of a tobacco factory with 150 workers. In 1798 he established the Company Conrad Hinrich Donner for the sale of goods and the provision of marine insurance (Assekuranz). Company Conrad Hinrich Donner was also a shipping company from which sailing boats operated. Later the banking transactions stepped ever more into the foreground, with the formation of Conrad Hinrich Donner Bank. He had close business ties to the shipping magnate Johann Cesar VI. Godeffroy. In 1820 Donner bought Sieveking Garden (today Donners Park de:Donners Park) and there in 1843 he established an art museum containing sculptures of Bertel Thorvaldsen and Herman Wilhelm Bissen). The museum and an orangery was designed by of Gottfried Semper. Conrad Hinrich Donner donated large sums for charitable purposes and was a promoter of art and science. Through his father, Donner was a personal friend of King Christian VIII of Denmark who stayed with him at Altona.
# ConFurence

ConFurence was the first exclusively furry convention, held annually in southern California from 1989 to 2003. The large furry presence at the BayCon science fiction conventions instigated Mark Merlino and Rod O'Riley to throw "furry parties" at Westercon, Baycon, and other west coast sci-fi conventions in the late 80's. This led to the test gathering in 1989, ConFurence Zero.
The convention became well known in mainstream media and among the furry fandom for its sexual themes. Sam Conway said, “By ConFurence 6 it looked like PrideFest”. Although Mark Merlino claims nothing special happened at the convention.

## History

After trying the Red Lion hotel, Confurence 0 was held at the Holiday Inn Bristol Plaza in Costa Mesa, California, on January 21 to 22, 1989. According to Joe Strike, While attendance for this first serious attempt to create a "funny animal fandom" convention was sparse at 65 persons, it was enough to encourage the Californians to attempt a full-fledged furry convention next year. Attendance was doubled to 130 for the first official ConFurence convention in January 1990, proving them right.
In 1997 Kare 11 reported adult oriented events going on at the convention. At the height of popularity in 1998, ConFurence 9 boasted the then-largest furry convention attendance of 1250.
Control of the ConFurence convention was transferred to Darrel Exline in 1999, who created a new entity called "The ConFurence Group" to run it, but by 2003 attendance had dwindled to 470 due to increased competition from other regional furry conventions and infighting among different factions of anthropomorphic fandom. The final ConFurence gathering gained notoriety when television crew from The Man Show appeared and attempted to interview attendees on camera.
With the demise of ConFurence, Mark Merlino and Robert Johnson Jr. teamed up to establish Califur in 2004 to continue the tradition of a furry convention in Southern California.

## Legacy

ConFurence created the mold by which other furry conventions were to follow, with the successful art show, a masquerade and an emphasis on fan-created content and Guests of Honor. As of 2018 there are dozens furry conventions and many more meets and gatherings all around the world, due in part to ConFurence's lead.
The name ConFurence is a registered trademark of the ConFurence Group. It is not a generic term for a furry convention, but as the original furry convention, many later cons took similar-sounding names, such as the now defunct ConFurence East (originally called Furtasticon in 1994 and took the name MoreFurCon just before its dissolution in 1997), and the current Eurofurence.

# John Percy Moore

John Percy Moore (1869–1965) was an American zoologist who specialized in the research of leeches.

## Biography

Born in Williamsport, Pennsylvania in 1869, Moore was educated at the Central High School of Philadelphia, where he received his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1886. A student at the University of Pennsylvania, he obtained his Bachelor of Science degree there in 1892 and his Doctor of Philosophy in 1896.
After 1890, he was repeatedly employed by the United States Fish Commission. An instructor in biology at the Hahnemann Medical College from 1896 to 1898, he served as an instructor in zoology at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, Mass after 1901.
An instructor in zoology at Penn from 1892 to 1907, he served as an assistant professor from 1907 to 1909, and was then appointed as a professor. In 1902, he became assistant curator of the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia and worked for many years with Witmer Stone. He was elected to the American Philosophical Society in 1918.
In 1939, he was appointed professor emeritus. Moore also served as a member of the board of trustees of the Academy of Natural Sciences] from 1938 to 1957. In 1957, he was made an Honorary Life Trustee.

## Research

Moore's primary zoological interest was the study of leeches and their biological control. During his years of scientific activity (1893–1963), he wrote more than one hundred papers, sixty-two of which were about leeches.
He conducted field research in India between 1930 and 1931 to study the life history of Indian land leeches. His association with the United States National Museum (USNM) began in the early 1900s when he started identifying specimens in the Museum's leech collection. In recognition of his work, he was appointed Honorary Collaborator in the Division of Marine Invertebrates, USNM, in 1930. On his death in 1965, Moore's collection of leeches was donated to the USNM.

### Species described

# Conditional sacrament

A conditional sacrament or sacrament sub conditione ("under condition") is in some Christian denominations a sacrament administered "on the condition that the faithful [receiving it is] able and legitimately entitled to receive the sacrament". An example of conditional sacrament is conditional baptism.
Conditional sacraments are practised by the Catholic Church, the Eastern Orthodox Church, the Anglican church, the Lutheran church, and the Methodist church.
Conditional sacraments are usually performed when there is doubt the previous sacrament(s) was (were) performed or valid, as receiving some specific sacraments more than once is considered impossible in the Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church.

## Catholic Church

If there is doubt concerning the ability of a person to receive any sacrament, the sacrament can be administered conditionally, whether the person is supposed to have already received said sacrament or not.
In the Catholic Church, the sacraments which, due to their sacramental character, cannot be repeated and can conditionally administered are "the sacraments of baptism, confirmation and order".
It is a custom in the Catholic Church to express the conditionality of the conditional sacrament, either audibly or mentally. For example, the person performing the ritual will add the condition "if you are capable" to the sacrament's formula; or in the case of a conditional baptism, the person performing the ritual will add "If you are not baptised" before conferring the conditional baptism. Indeed, it is not necessary to express verbally the conditionality. However, the conditionality "should be expressed audibly when reasons for doubt about the condition of the subject are public. The purpose of the condition is to avoid scandal or confusion in the faithful and, out of reverence for the sacraments, to avoid subjecting them to the possibility of invalidity".

## Eastern Orthodox Church

In the Eastern Orthodox Church, sacraments which cannot be repeated and can conditionally administered may include baptism and chrismation.

## Church of England

In the Church of England, sacraments which cannot be repeated and can be conditionally administered include baptism.

## Methodist Churches

In Methodism, baptisms are conditionally administered in cases of doubt concerning their validity.

## Independent sacramental movement

According to the Utrecht Old Catholic priest Bernard Vignot, conditional consecration is "very common" within the independent sacramental movement (ISM). The practice of receiving conditional consecration is either performed by ISM bishops who want to receive as many lines of apostolic succession of various origins as possible, or by ISM clergy who doubt the validity of their holy order and "want to avoid any questioning".
# Congrogadinae

Congrogadinae is a subfamily of ray-finned fishes, one of four subfamilies that make up the family Pseudochromidae, these elongated fish are commonly called eel-blennies.

## Characteristics

The species in the subfamily Congrogadidae have elongated rather eel-like bodies which are covered in with small cycloid scales. Their dorsal fin normally has a single robust spine and 32–79 rays while the anal fin lacks any spines and has 26–66 rays. The dorsal and anal fins are long and the pelvic fin is sometimes present but in more than half the species it is absent. The caudal fin is joined to the long dorsal and anal fins in a small number of species but is separated in all the others. They have a protractable mouth and there is a rear facing spine on the opercle. They have between one and three complete or partial lateral lines. There are no teeth on the palatine and they may or may not be present on the vomerine bone. They grow to a maximum length of 40 centimetres (16 in).
They lay eggs which are covered in hooks, some of which may develop into filaments. The eggs are clumped together in an egg mass the hooks on the eggs' surfaces interlocking with each other, which is most likely guarded by the male.

## Distribution and habitat

The species in the Congrogadinae inhabit coral reefs as well as sand and mud substrates from the intertidal zone down to 140 metres (460 ft). They are found in the Indo-Pacific region. There is one species which lives within sponges which is found in the Gulf of Carpentaria. The subfamily is thought to have arisen in the proto Indian Ocean before Gondwanaland broke up and dispersed into the western Pacific Ocean.

## Genera

The following genera are included within the Congrogadinae:
* Blennodesmus Günther, 1872
* Congrogadus Günther, 1862
* Halidesmus Günther, 1872
* Halimuraena J.L.B. Smith, 1952
* Halimuraenoides Maugé & Bardach, 1985
* Haliophis Rüppell, 1829
* Natalichthys Winterbottom, 1980

# Conrad Noll

Conrad Noll (1836–1925) was a German-born soldier who fought for the Union in the U.S. Civil War. He received the Medal of Honor for his actions during the Battle of Spotsylvania as a member of the 20th Michigan Infantry. He was born in Germany on February 20, 1836 and died in Ann Arbor, Michigan on May 26, 1925. He is buried in the Forest Hill Cemetery of Ann Arbor.

## Military service

Noll enlisted in Company D of the 20th Michigan Infantry on August 11, 1862, at the age of 26. With his unit he participated in many battles: Fredericksburg, Horseshoe Bend, Jackson, Vicksburg, Blue Springs, the Siege of Knoxville, the Wilderness, Spotsylvania, North Anna, Cold Harbor, and the Crater. He was wounded at the Crater, and was discharged in July 1865 from Harper Hospital in Detroit, having been promoted to the rank of Sergeant. Three of Noll's wartime diaries describing his experiences are available on microfilm at the University of Michigan's Bentley Historical Library.
