# Black oropendola

The black oropendola (Psarocolius guatimozinus) is a species of bird in the family Icteridae (New World blackbirds). It is found in Colombia and Panama. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests.

## Description

The male black oropendola grows to a length of about 46 cm (18 in) and the female about 39.5 cm (15.6 in). The sexes are similar in appearance and are mainly black, with dark chestnut back, rump, part of the wing-coverts and crissum (the area around the cloaca). There is a bluish bare patch on the cheek, edged with pink at its lowest extremity, and an orange-tipped, black beak.

## Distribution and habitat

The black oropendola is endemic to humid forests of northwestern South America. Its range includes northwestern Colombia, as far east as the Magdalena River, and the extreme southeastern part of Panama, a total area of occupancy of about 108,000 km$^2$ (41,700 sq mi). Its altitudinal range is up to about 800 m (2,620 ft).

## Ecology

The habits of the black oropendola have been little studied but its diet probably includes insects, small vertebrates and fruit. It clambers about high in the canopy and may sip nectar from flowers. It nests colonially, with up to twenty birds constructing their nests in one tree. The eggs are pale pink, scantily blotched with reddish brown. The black oropendola is probably polygynous, with one male mating with many females. The breeding season in Panama is February while in Colombia it is April to June.

## Status

The black oropendola has a large range and is said to be fairly common. Its population trend seems to be stable and no particular threats have been identified. For these reasons, the International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed its conservation status as being of "least concern".
# Blackwood Farm

Blackwood Farm is a 2002 vampire novel by American writer Anne Rice, the ninth book in her The Vampire Chronicles series. The novel includes some characters who cross over from Rice's Lives of the Mayfair Witches trilogy (1990–1994), continuing the unified story begun in Merrick (2000).

## Plot summary

Tarquin "Quinn" Blackwood, heir to a powerful old family in New Orleans, has been plagued by a mysterious spirit named Goblin for his entire life. Made a vampire in his youth, Quinn seeks out Lestat de Lioncourt looking for help in getting rid of Goblin, who has become more and more malevolent. Quinn recalls his youth, his family, and his forced transformation into a vampire by Petronia. His stories allow Lestat to better understand the reach and power of Goblin, and clue in Lestat to the fact that Quinn is connected to the Mayfair family of witches. After his own failure defeating Goblin, Lestat asks the witch Merrick Mayfair, also a vampire, for assistance. Meanwhile, Quinn has fallen in love with heiress Mona Mayfair, and the ghost of their mutual ancestor Julien Mayfair warns him against making Mona a vampire. Goblin is revealed to be the spirit of Quinn's twin Gawain, who died days after being born. He is bound to Quinn, and is relentlessly jealous to experience whatever Quinn does. Merrick performs a ritual using Gawain's corpse to exorcise Goblin. She sacrifices herself by carrying the child's spirit into the hereafter with her, and Lestat is heartbroken.

## Crossovers

Some characters from Rice's Lives of the Mayfair Witches trilogy (1990–1994) appear in Merrick (2000), and later Blackwood Farm and Blood Canticle (2003).

## Audiobooks

In 2002, Penguin Random House Audio released an abridged audiobook adaptation of Blackwood Farm, narrated by Stephen Spinella, as well as an unabridged version, narrated by David Pittu.

## Critical reception

Blackwood Farm debuted at No. 4 on The New York Times Best Seller list, spending a total of five weeks on the list. Publishers Weekly wrote that the novel contains plenty of "intrigue, eroticism and obsession", adding that "Rice fleshes out her slim plot line with gory set pieces of vampire history in ancient Athens, Pompeii and 19th century Naples. She excels at vivid descriptions of macabre landscapes, gloomy estate houses and the lust that motivates her Blood Hunters and propels her ghoulish narratives. Her dialogue and characterizations, however—even of the durable Vampire Lestat—are flat and predictable here." Reviewing the audiobook adaptation, AudioFile wrote, "Fraught with swamps, witches, cemeteries, forbidden love, and blood lust, all knotted up with family honor, this steamy potboiler is perfect for the 'vampirophile.'"

# Adam Weiler

Adam Weiler (died 1894) was a German trade unionist and socialist activist, active in London.
Born in Germany, Weiler emigrated to London, where he found work as a cabinetmaker. He joined the International Working Men's Association, serving on its British Federal Council in 1872–3, and supporting Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels' campaign against reformers. He maintained a friendship with Marx throughout the 1870s, the two corresponding by letter.
During the 1870s, Weiler served on the executive of the Alliance Cabinet Makers' Association. In 1875, the union decided to test the Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1871's provisions on picketing, leading to the imprisonment of five leading members of the union. Weiler represented the union on the London Trades Council, and was one of three delegates that body appointed to state the case for prisoners' defence. He also attended several meetings of the Trades Union Congress.
By 1884, Weiler was a member of the Manhood Suffrage League, and frequently spoke at meetings of various radical clubs in London. When the league joined the Social Democratic Federation, he became a member of that organisation.

# Adelaide Underhill

Adelaide Underhill (1860 – April 24, 1936) was an American librarian. She was hired to catalog and update the organization of volumes in the Vassar College library. She used the Dewey Decimal System and, along with help from her lifelong companion, Lucy Maynard Salmon, built Vassar's into one of the most impressive collections for a liberal arts college at the time.

## Biography

Underhill was born in 1860 in Brooklyn and later lived in Skaneateles, New York. Underhill graduated from Vassar College in 1888. At Vassar, she was a student of Lucy Maynard Salmon and had been very impressed with her teacher. Salmon would become her "lifelong companion."
Underhill earned her master's degree from Columbia University in where she studied library science and graduated in 1890. In 1892, Vassar librarian, Frances A. Wood, hired Underhill to create a "modern library system" for the college. Underhill cataloged the 15,000 volume collection mostly on her own, using the Dewey Decimal System. With help from Salmon and with Underhill's work, the Vassar library became "one of the most impressive among liberal arts colleges." By 1910, she was the Associate Librarian for Vassar Library and also attended the International Congress of Librarians in Brussels in August of that year. In 1922, Underhill became the chief librarian and retired from Vassar in 1928. When the Thompson Memorial Library expanded in 1935, one of the new wings was named after Underhill.
Underhill was also a suffragist and marched in a suffrage parade in New York City in 1913. In 1916, she and Salmon were among the women voters who came to vote on a proposition to improve the water main system in Poughkeepsie, New York.
Salmon and Underhill lived together off campus for more than thirty years. They found a house together in Poughkeepsie in 1901. After Salmon's death in 1927, Underhill was given her life estate. Underhill also helped collect and organize materials for a biography on Salmon that Vassar professor, Louis Fargo Brown, intended to write.
Underhill died on April 24, 1936, in her home in Poughkeepsie.

# Blocking (computing)

In computing, a process that is blocked is waiting for some event, such as a resource becoming available or the completion of an I/O operation. Once the event occurs for which the process is waiting ("is blocked on"), the process is advanced from blocked state to an imminent one, such as runnable.
In a multitasking computer system, individual tasks, or threads of execution, must share the resources of the system. Shared resources include: the CPU, network and network interfaces, memory and disk.
When one task is using a resource, it is generally not possible, or desirable, for another task to access it. The techniques of mutual exclusion are used to prevent this concurrent use. When the other task is blocked, it is unable to execute until the first task has finished using the shared resource.
Programming languages and scheduling algorithms are designed to minimize the over-all effect of blocking. A process that blocks may prevent local work-tasks from progressing. In this case "blocking" often is seen as not wanted. However, such work-tasks may instead have been assigned to independent processes, where halting one has little to no effect on the others, since scheduling will continue. An example is "blocking on a channel" where passively waiting for the other part (i.e. no polling or spin loop) is part of the semantics of channels. Correctly engineered, any of these may be used to implement reactive systems.
Deadlock means that processes pathologically wait for each other in a circle. As such it is not directly associated with blocking.
# Blériot-SPAD S.29

The Blériot-SPAD S.29 was a sport aircraft produced in 1919 by Blériot-SPAD.

## Design and development

The Blériot-SPAD S.29 was a two-seat single-bay biplane, with a slightly swept upper wing and a straight lower wing, with the wings connected by a single strut on each side. Ailerons were fitted to the lower wing only. The fuselage was a circular section wooden monocoque structure, with pilot and passenger seated in tandem in a single cockpit. It was powered by a 60 kilowatts (80 hp) Le Rhône 9C rotary engine driving a two-bladed propeller fitted with a large hemispherical spinner, mounted on ball-bearings so that it did not rotate with the propeller, possibly a precaution against the spinner disintegrating due to centrifugal force.
