# Alfonso Sorrentino (mathematician)

Alfonso Sorrentino (Rome, 27 November 1979) is an Italian mathematician, currently full professor of Mathematical analysis at University of Rome Tor Vergata (Italy).
His main scientific interests are in the field of dynamical systems, specifically, in the study of Hamiltonian dynamical systems by means of variational methods (Aubry-Mather theory), partial differential equations techniques (weak KAM theory and Hamilton-Jacobi equation) and geometric approaches (symplectic geometry and topology).

## Biography and career

Sorrentino was a student of John N. Mather at Princeton University, obtaining his Ph.D. in Mathematics in 2008. After his graduation, he held the roles of junior research fellow at Fondation Sciences Mathématiques de Paris (2008–2009), Herchel-Smith Research Fellow at University of Cambridge (2009–2012), Newton Trust Fellow of Pembroke College, Cambridge (2009–2012), and Researcher at Roma Tre University (2012–2014)

## Honors and awards

# 2005 Northeast Conference men's basketball tournament

The 2005 Northeast Conference men's basketball tournament was held in March. The tournament featured the league's top eight seeds. Fairleigh Dickinson won the championship, its fourth, and received the conferences automatic bid to the 2005 NCAA Tournament.

## Format

Departing from last years format, the NEC Men’s Basketball Tournament will consist of an eight-team playoff format with all games played at the home of the higher seed. After the quarterfinals, the teams will be reseeded so the highest remaining seed plays the lowest remaining seed in the semifinals.

# Anatomy of a Love Song

Anatomy of a Love Song is the seventh studio album by American singer Kenny Lattimore. It was released by Sincere Soul and eOne Music on April 14, 2015. His debut with the label, the album reached number 10 on the US Independent Albums.

## Critical reception

| Allmusic | |
In his review for Allmusic, editor Andy Kellman found that "the singer is at his best when he cooks up modern smooth soul that evokes late-night, late-'70s/early-'80s R&B radio programming; a cover of a ballad written by the likes of Skip Scarborough or Leon Ware could have been inconspicuously slipped into the sequence [...] It sounds as if Lattimore felt absolutely no pressure in delivering his first widely released solo album of original material in 14 years."

# Arashi: Castles of Sin

Arashi: Castles of Sin is a virtual reality stealth action-adventure game for PlayStation VR on PlayStation 4, developed by Endeavor One and published by Prep Games. A Final Cut version was co-developed with Skydance Interactive and released on December 5, 2023, on next-generation virtual reality consoles.

## Gameplay

Players control Kenshiro, an elite shinobi and the last surviving son of the noble House Arashi with a wolf companion, Haru, as they take down bandits set within a world in feudal Japan. As a ninja, players have to use stealth elements around its surroundings along take out the bandits using an arsenal of weapons to your disposal.

## Development

The game is developed by Seattle-based studio Endeavor One, a virtual reality company who made Halo: Recruit for Windows Mixed Reality and Dome of the Dead, a 2019 4-player cooperative shooter for Vulcan's HoloDome. It was their first game made by a 30-person team of veterans from the Halo and Destiny franchises, powered using Unity 3D, with support from Unity's Seattle office, over the course of the last two years. When developing the game, they had an expert swordsman, Russell McCartney, to provide motion-capture on Kenshiro while Beyond Capture helps provide the motion-capture on Haru with dogs.

## Reception

The VR Grid gave it an 8/10 when playing it on the PlayStation 5. Hey Poor Player gave it a positive at 3/5. A review for the Final Cut version gave it a 6/10 on Push Square.

## Final Cut

During the Upload VR showcase in June 2023, a final cut version of the game was announced to be arriving on Quest 2 and Quest 3, PlayStation VR2, and PCVR on December 5, 2023, and was co-developed by Skydance Interactive.

# Eucithara abakcheutos

Eucithara abakcheutos is a small sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Mangeliidae.

## Description

The shell size attains 8 mm, its diameter 3.6 mm.
The small shell has a biconic-fusiform shape with a small, but sharp protoconch. The five teleoconch whorls are convex. The whorls are slightly concave at the shoulder. The aperture is long and narrow. The outer lip shows a thick varix. The inner lip is smooth or with small denticles. The ten opisthocline axial ribs are more or les prominent but do not project above the suture. The axial ribs are markedly narrower than the interstices, becoming weak below the shallow suture. The main interstices show a row of microscopic granules. The spiral sculpture is coarser (about 20-27 lirae on penultimate whorl). The siphonal canal is short. The color of the shell is white, the body whorl is suffused with brownish.

## Distribution

This marine species has been found on the inner continental shelf of northern Zululand, South Africa.

# Embassy of Russia, Tallinn

Embassy of Russia in Tallinn is the diplomatic mission of Russia in Estonia.

## History

The embassy building is situated in the old medieval quarter of Tallinn Old Town. It was originally built around 1890 as a house and underwent several renovations before becoming an embassy. It was declared a cultural heritage monument in 1997.
The building was first a Soviet embassy in 1921. After WWII it was in use by the Soviet Ministry of the Interior. The Estonian Embassy in Moscow and the Russian Embassy in Tallinn have been operating since independence in 1991, but until 2004 the ownership of buildings and plots owned by embassies and the conditions for their use were unregulated and a draft agreement was made to transfer ownership of the properties. It is unknown whether the draft was signed by either party.
Following the Russian Federation's annexation of Crimea in 2014, demonstrations in support of Ukraine were held in front of the embassy to express solidarity with Ukraine and disdain for the annexation.
Diplomatic relations between the two nations soured in the prelude to and during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Estonia joined Latvia and Lithuania in expelling Russian diplomats in March 2022. In retaliation, the Russian Embassy posted on its Facebook page that Estonian diplomats would be expelled from Russia.
In April 2022, demonstrations in support of Ukraine where held again in front of the embassy in response to allegations of rape and sexual assault by Russian forces in Ukraine.
In January 2023, Russia recalled its ambassador from Estonia, reasoning that Russia-Estonia relations were being 'purposefully destroyed' by the Estonian side.
