# Blanca Martínez Mera

Blanca Martínez Mera (October 5, 1897 – June 20, 1976) was an Ecuadorian writer and teacher. With the publication of her book En la paz del campo in 1940, she became the first woman to publish a novel in Ecuador.

## Biography

Blanca Martínez Mera was born in 1897 in Ambato, in Ecuador's Tungurahua province. Her parents were Rosario Mera Iturralde and Luis A. Martínez, also a well-known writer. She spent her childhood on the family hacienda known as Quinta de Atocha, but she was orphaned by age 12. She completed her secondary studies at the Colegio de la Providencia. In 1921, she married Florencio Tinajero Albornoz, with whom she would go on to have two daughters. She was sometimes known as Blanca Martínez de Tinajero.
Early in her career, she served as president of the Red Cross of Ambato. She also taught high school at Colegio Bolívar, later becoming the rector of the Instituto Manuela Cañizares in Quito. During her time as an educator she met the politician José María Velasco Ibarra, who, on becoming president of Ecuador, named her vice consul in Boston. He later named her director of education for her home province of Tungurahua.
In 1940, Martínez Mera published the costumbrista novel En la paz del campo, the first novel published by an Ecuadorian woman. She went on to publish two more novels: Purificación (1942) and Luz en la noche (1950).
Later in life she became the director of the Casa de Montalvo, a museum and cultural center in Ambato, whose eponymous magazine she edited for many years.
Martínez Mera died in Ambato in 1976. She is buried in the Nuestra Señora de La Merced Municipal Cemetery. A school in her hometown bears her name in honor of her memory.

# Blood, Sweat and Stanley Poole

Blood, Sweat and Stanley Poole is a 1961 play by American brothers and playwrights James Goldman and William Goldman near the beginning of their careers. Both had served in the army in the 1950s. The comedy is about a supply sergeant at an army post in the South.
William Goldman later recalled "we had both been in the army at the same time and it seemed like a decent enough idea and magically we got it on."

## Background

Brothers James and William Goldman had been permitted to serve together in the Army in 1955. They were stationed with the 101st Airborne division.
The Goldman brothers had received a grant from the Ford Foundation to observe production of the musical Tenderloin. They also wrote a musical together A Family Affair. William Goldman had written a novel about service in the army, Soldier in the Rain. He denied that there were any other similarities between that and Blood, Sweat and Stanley Poole. "The only connection between the two", he said, "is that I was involved in writing both."
Roger Stevens and Joseph Fields optioned the play.

## Original production

The original production starred Peter Fonda and Darren McGavin and was directed by Jerome Chodorov. It ran for 84 performances. James Caan appeared in the cast.
The production was budgeted for $100,000 and was brought in at $85,000. The show was launched with "two-for" tickets at certain matinees.
It was the New York stage debut of Peter Fonda, who was selected over 200 other actors. Fonda was originally rejected for the role, the producers saying they wanted someone closer to Robert Morse. However a number of months later he was called back to audition again and was given the part. James Caan was his understudy.
Screen rights were sold to the America Corporation for $125,000, with a ceiling of $125,000. They also invested $45,000 in the production.

## Reception

Variety said "There is definite merit to this production. It spouts humorous lines within comical situations, and the dialog and action are in competent hands. The theme is offbeat, replete with both. laugh and human interest potentials. But it’s going to require a bit of blood, sweat and know-how. to meld into hit proportions the many talents on tap."
Howard Taubman of the New York Times did not like the play, saying "the plot is spaced out as mechanically as if it were to run forever on the home screen."
Fonda's performance earned him a New York Drama Critics' Circle Award.
The production transferred to Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Times called it "a routine service comedy."

# SAFRING

The South African Bird Ringing Unit (SAFRING) is based at the University of Cape Town and provides bird ringing services in South Africa and other African countries. This entails providing ringing equipment to qualified ringers, and curating all ringing data. SAFRING communicates with ringers and interested parties through annually publishing one or two issues of a newsletter, Afring News, and by maintaining a list server. SAFRING holds national training courses, annually if there is sufficient demand. SAFRING liaises with the provinces who have the responsibility of issuing permits. SAFRING has a strict code of ethics to ensure the safety of birds handled. SAFRING acknowledges the importance of bird ringing in that it has been described as the most important tool in ornithology in the 20th century.

## History

Bird ringing in South Africa started in 1948 when the Southern African Ornithological Society (SAOS) initiated a bird ringing scheme under the leadership of Dr EH Ashton. The first birds to be ringed were 31 Cape Vultures Gyps coprotheres, ringed on 1 August 1948 at Kranzberg by a team of birders and mountaineers. A year later one of these, ring C00086 was found near Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, the first recovery of a southern African bird ring.
Bird ringing was initially organized by an NGO (Southern African Ornithological Society, SAOS) and the ringing effort steadily increased and by the 1960s the cost and complexity of administering the scheme exceeded the resources of the SAOS. The Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) coordinated a deal whereby the four provincial conservation departments became the major sponsors of the National Unit for Bird Ringing Administration (NUBRA), in 1971, based at the University of Cape Town.
The unit became part of the Avian Demography Unit, Department of Statistical Sciences, University of Cape Town, in 1991, which became the Animal Demography Unit, and moved to the Department of Zoology, University of Cape Town, in January 2008. In 2008 SAFRING organised a wide variety of events to celebrate its 60th anniversary of bird ringing in South Africa.

# Henry Tse

Henry Edward Tse (born 1990/91) is a transgender rights activist based in Hong Kong. He is the founder of Transgender Equality Hong Kong. In February 2023, Tse won a court appeal to remove full sex reassignment surgery as a requirement for changing gender on identification cards.

## Early life and education

Tse was born in Hong Kong and assigned female at birth. He experienced gender dysphoria from early childhood, which worsened when he attended a religious secondary school for girls. He moved to the United Kingdom to attend the University of Warwick, and began his gender transition in 2012, undergoing hormone treatment and top surgery.

## Career and activism

In the United Kingdom, Tse changed his gender to male on his British passport, got a Gender Recognition Certificate, and lived and worked as a man without difficulties. After returning to Hong Kong, in 2017 he applied to update the gender marker on his ID card, but was rejected, as he had not undergone genital surgery. City law required full sex reassignment surgery to change the gender marker on one's ID card.
Tse and two other trans men filed for judicial review, arguing that the surgery requirements violated constitutional and privacy rights. Their case was heard in 2018, but dismissed the following year. Tse and other activists continued to appeal, ultimately appearing before the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal in January 2023.
In February 2023, the Court of Final Appeal ruled in the activists' favor, stating that the government's surgery requirements were unconstitutional and unacceptably burdensome. The ruling was not immediately implemented.
In April 2024, after Hong Kong removed the requirement for full gender-affirming surgery, Tse received a new identity card reflecting his gender change.

## Awards and recognition

In May 2023, Time magazine named Tse as a "Next Generation Leader".

# Garba Lompo

Garba Lompo is a Nigerien politician who was Minister of Justice in the government of Niger from May 2009 to February 2010. He was previously the President of the National Commission on Human Rights and Fundamental Liberties (Commission nationale des droits de l'Homme et des libertés fondamentales, CNDHLF).

## President of the CNDHLF

At the time of the November–December 2004 presidential and parliamentary election, Lombo congratulated the people on conducting themselves with a sense of civic responsibility during the election.
When Timidria, an anti-slavery group, attempted to organize a ceremony to liberate 7,000 slaves in Inatès in early 2005, the CNDHLF said that the group should instead characterize the ceremony as a "campaign for public awareness and popularisation of the law criminalising slave practices". At the ceremony, held on 4–5 March 2005, CNDHLF President Lompo was present and stated that "any attempt to free slaves in the country [remained] illegal and unacceptable"; he also said that "any person celebrating a slave liberation [would] be punished under the law". In its report released on 28 April 2005, the CNDHLF stated that slavery did not exist in the area and accused those who spread the slavery "rumours" of secretly working to "tarnish the image of the country" and deter donors. In its recommendations, the CNDHLF report called for the arrest of Timidria leaders (two of them were arrested on the day of the report's release), the dissolution of the organization and the freezing of its bank accounts. Lombo urged the Interior Ministry to "ensure a more regular monitoring of NGOs and associations activities in the country".
Later in 2005, Lompo said that "slavery doesn't exist" in Niger. The remaining social relationships that could be classified as slavery were effectively voluntary arrangements, based on tradition and continued because the slaves felt "at ease with the master", according to Lompo.
On 14 September 2006, Lompo addressed the United Nations General Assembly meeting on the High-level Dialogue on International Migration and Development. He announced on 9 November 2007 that the government had initiated a probe to determine whether slavery actually existed or "whether these are just baseless allegations".
After Ali Madou, the Vice-President of the CNDHLF, was kidnapped by Tuareg rebels in mid-May 2008, Lombo called for the rebels to release Madou immediately and without conditions.
Lompo served two three-year terms as President of the CNDHLF. Mamoudou Djibo was elected to succeed him in that post on 4 September 2008.

## Justice Minister

Lompo was appointed to the government as Minister of Justice on 15 May 2009. He warned in late December 2009 that the key opposition leaders Mahamadou Issoufou, Mahamane Ousmane, and Hama Amadou would face arrest if they returned to Niger, thereby reactivating arrest warrants that had previously been suspended to facilitate dialogue.
