# Francesco Merli

Francesco Merli (28 January 1887 – 11 December 1976) was an Italian opera singer, particularly associated with heavy roles such as Otello, Canio and Calaf. He ranks as one of the finest dramatic tenors of the inter-war period.

## Life and career

Francesco Merli was born Francesco Cova in Corsico (Milan), son of Luigi and Emilia Cova. and studied in Milan, with Carlo Negrini and Adelaide Borghi. In 1914, he won second prize at a singing competition in Parma, being edged out of first place by the great Beniamino Gigli. He made his debut at La Scala, Milan, in 1916, as Alvaro in Spontini's Fernand Cortez.
Merli would sing widely in Italy and South America during the next decade, and also toured Australia in 1928 with an opera company composed of leading La Scala singers and sponsored by Dame Nellie Melba (who also sang during that tour, in roles such as Mimi in La bohème, despite being 67 years old). The tour included Merli singing Calaf in the Australian premiere of Puccini's Turandot.
He appeared regularly in London at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden, from 1926 to 1930, where, among other things, he was the first Calaf to be heard in Great Britain. He made his Paris debut at the Palais Garnier in 1935, as Pollione in Norma. His only season at the Metropolitan Opera in New York City occurred in 1932. He made his debut at the Met on 2 March of that year, as Radames in Aida; but his performances there were not deemed a success due to the effects of poor health. Thereafter, La Scala became his operatic base and his career tailed off during World War II.
He was renowned for his vocal strength, penetrating tone and incisive diction. These qualities enabled him to tackle a wide operatic repertory, ranging from bel canto works through verismo roles to heroic parts such as Verdi's Otello. Other famous operas that he appeared in included, among others, Guillaume Tell, Il pirata, Il trovatore, La forza del destino, Andrea Chénier, Manon Lescaut and Pagliacci.
His portrayal of Otello became world-famous, as was his interpretation of Calaf in Turandot. In 1938, he participated in a complete recording of the latter work, together with Gina Cigna and Magda Olivero. He also made numerous recordings of opera arias. These recordings, like the complete Turandot, have been re-issued on CD.
Merli also created the title role in Respighi's Belfagor in 1923 but recorded none of its music for posterity. He retired from the stage in 1948 and died, aged 89, in Milan.

# Bavarian Army Reform (1868)

After the experience of the Bavarian Army in the war against Prussia, in 1868 the Bavarian War Minister Siegmund Freiherr von Pranckh fundamentally reformed the army. His main measures were:
* Abolition of the practice of avoiding conscription by hiring a paid substitute, called a Einsteher ("Proxy") or Einstandsmann ("Stand-In"), to volunteer to take their place.
* Creation of Dienstzeit (compulsory military service-time requirement) of three years for all able-bodied men.
* Introduction of the Einjährig-Freiwilliger (“One-year volunteer”) system after the Prussian model.
* Abolition of Bavaria's Landwehr. The term Landsturm was henceforth used for the older members of the Reserve.
* Foundation of the I Royal Bavarian Corps in Munich and II Royal Bavarian Corps in Würzburg
* The Bavarian Cadet Corps was put on an equal footing with a Realgymnasium.
Through these reforms, the Bavarian Army was able to participate significantly in the Franco-Prussian War.

# Epratuzumab

Epratuzumab (planned trade name LymphoCide) is a humanized monoclonal antibody. Potential uses may be found in oncology and in treatment of inflammatory autoimmune disorders, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

## Clinical trials

A clinical trial for relapsed adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has reported initial results.
Results have been published for a phase II trial in untreated follicular lymphoma.
Early results from a phase II trial for Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) were encouraging.
The manufacturers in August 2009 announced success in early trials against SLE, and started two Phase III clinical trials. July 2015 : Both phase III trials (EMBODY1/2) for SLE failed to meet their primary endpoint.

## Mechanism of action

Epratuzumab binds to the glycoprotein CD22 of mature and malignant B-cells.
Elevated CD22 and other B-cell receptor (BCR) proteins are associated with SLE. "Epratuzumab's mechanism of action transfers these BCR proteins to helper cells called effector cells which reduces B-cell destruction and epratuzumab's impact on the body's immune system" via a process called trogocytosis. Other SLE therapies destroy B-cells which compromises the immune system.

# Battista Fregoso (1380–1442)

Battista Fregoso (Genoa, 1380 – Genoa, 20 June 1442) was the 27th Doge of the Republic of Genoa. His leadership lasted only one day.

## Biography

Son of the former doge Pietro Fregoso and his second wife Benedetta Doria, brother of Tomaso di Campofregoso, who was elected to the dogal office three times, Battista was born in Genoa around 1380. After his father's death in 1404, Fregoso probably followed his own family in various exiles in different Italian states and in the management of commercial traffic, especially in the eastern Genoese colony of Cyprus.
Almost inexplicably, he began to approach the Milanese Duke Filippo Maria Visconti, enemy of his brother Tomaso, then the doge of the Republic. By now, secretly an ally of Duke Visconti, he put in place his "climb to power" on the morning of 24 March 1437, taking advantage of the momentary absence of the doge engaged in attending the religious celebrations of Palm Sunday at the Cathedral of San Lorenzo. Battista Fregoso took over the Doge's palace easily and in the same way he made himself a new doge of Genoa, all behind the "deposed" brother-doge. The dogate of Battista Fregoso, the twenty-seventh in Republican history, was very short, essentially a day, since on the same day it was in turn deposed by his brother Tomaso, who returned to the palace.

# Bath and Bradford-on-Avon Bats SAC

The Bath and Bradford-on-Avon Bats SAC is a Special Area of Conservation originally designated under the European Union's Habitats Directive (92/43/EEC), also known as the Directive on the Conservation of Natural Habitats and of Wild Fauna and Flora.

## Extent and purpose

The SAC covers ten separate areas within four Sites of Special Scientific Interest: two in Somerset, Brown's Folly, near Bathford, and Combe Down and Bathampton Down Mines, near Bath; and two in Wiltshire, Box Mine and Winsley Mines. These ten areas are all abandoned limestone mines, but in some cases they were designated together with nearby areas of supporting habitat, which is either broadleaved woodland or calcareous grassland. The surrounding undesignated landscape provides further forage for bats.
The designation of the SAC is for the protection of hibernating populations of three species of bat, lesser horseshoe, greater horseshoe, and Bechstein's bat. However, it is uncertain whether Bechstein's bats hibernate in caves and mines.
Other neighbouring Special Areas of Conservation for the benefit of bats are the Mells Valley SAC, the Chilmark Quarries SAC, and the North Somerset and Mendip Bats SAC.

# Beautiful Thing (Ben Vaughn album)

Beautiful Thing is an album by the American rock and roll musician Ben Vaughn (credited to the Ben Vaughn Combo), released in 1987. The album's final track, "The Apology Line", is covered on Barrence Whitfield's Ow! Ow! Ow!

## Production

The album was produced by Vaughn, who also wrote the songs. Mostly acoustic, the songs were in part inspired by radio disc jockey patter and random conversations overheard by Vaughn. The band used bongos, hubcaps, maracas, and accordion on many of the tracks. "Big House with a Yard" is about a man asking his girlfriend to visit him in prison.

Robert Christgau thought that, "unlike many comedians, this mild-mannered male chauvinist is funniest when he lets on how clever he is." Trouser Press wrote that "Beautiful Thing has a fresh, easygoing feel, but too much restraint can be dangerous: halfway through the first side, this mild record threatens to slide right off the turntable." The New York Times concluded that "all the three-chord rock of the 1950's and 60's—rockabilly, surf-rock, Cajun, rhythm-and-blues, country—twangs and relaxes together in the Ben Vaughn Combo, as Mr. Vaughn talk-sings his way through droll, understated songs without a hint of rock's latter-day histrionics." The Philadelphia Inquirer deemed the album "a marvelously eclectic collection of rock styles and romantic observations."
The Philadelphia Daily News called the tracks "clever, evocative new songs in a time honored, timeless style," writing that the band "has a slap happy simplicity and ragged enthusiasm that's anachronistic, that seems a throwback to the 1950s rockabilly era of Eddie Cochran and Buddy Holly and the Big Bopper." The Washington Post determined that "sometimes Vaughn sounds like what might have happened if Lou Reed had influenced Bob Dylan rather than the other way around, but he always manages a neat wedding of lyric and melody." The Chicago Tribune stated that "Vaughn brings some uncommon touches to numbers about male-female relationships." The State included Beautiful Thing on its list of the ten best albums of 1987.
AllMusic wrote that "the tunes on Beautiful Thing never hit harder than they have to or take up more space than necessary, and their modesty only adds to their effectiveness."
