# World Trade Union Conference

The World Trade Union Conference was a conference that was held between 6–17 February 1945. The conference was participated by countries from all around the world, at the County Hall, London. Regarded as a significant moment within the international labour movement, it was the first time that workers from around the world came together to influence international politics.
Both Clement Attlee and King George VI spoke to the audience at the conference. 204 representatives from 63 Unions around the world attended the conference including those from the Soviet Union, in an attempt to have representation within the United Nations and its Security Council. The conference, which was organised in the vein of the anti-fascist movement, being much inspired by both union and state notions of a new world order and influenced by the interests of the allied nations. Anti-war, post war reconstruction post-war and Trade Union were on the conference agenda.
The conference resulted in the Declarations of the World Trade Union Conference, which were published in San Francisco by the Trade Union Council in 1945 and inspired the Fifth Pan-African Congress to be held later that same year in Manchester.
One of the purposes of the conference was to create a draft constitution for the World Federation of Trade Unions, which was established at the first World Trades Union Congress, which was convened in Paris in October 1945.

# Xiang Zhejun

Xiang Zhejun (Chinese: 向哲浚; Wade–Giles: Hsiang Che-chun; 1892—1987), native of Ningxiang county in Hunan province, was a Chinese jurist and prosecutor at the International Military Tribunal for the Far East.

## Education and early career

After graduating from Tsinghua University in 1917, Xiang went to the United States for further studies and enrolled at Yale University, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in American and English Literature. He later transferred to the George Washington University Law School, where he studied international law and obtained his JD. After his return to China in 1925, Xiang Zhejun taught law at a number of schools, including Peking University and Beijing Jiaotong University. After the establishment of the Nationalist Government in 1927, Xiang held a number of positions in several government bureaus, including the ministries of Justice and Foreign Affairs.

## Tokyo Trial

In January 1946, Xiang was appointed the prosecutor for the Republic of China in the International Military Tribunal for the Far East, in preparation for which he vigorously collected oral and material evidence. Instead of prosecuting Japanese war crimes dating from the outbreak of hostilities in July 1937, Xiang also managed to persuade the court to prosecute Japanese wars crimes dating back to the Huanggutun Incident in 1928, when the Kanto Army assassinated Zhang Zuolin. During the trial, Xiang Zhejun become known for confronting defendants such as Iwane Matsui, Itagaki Seishiro and Doihara Kenji with evidence establishing their guilt of war crimes. Among other things Xiang established the guilt of Iwane, who was confronted with evidence of the atrocities, including Harold John Timperley's reports in the Manchester Guardian.
However, following the political directives of Chiang Kai-shek, Xiang did not investigate crimes committed by the Imperial Japanese Army in Communist based areas such as the "Three Alls Policy". Thus, military leaders like Yasuji Okamura were not prosecuted before the Tokyo tribunal. He also let down evidence about the use of chemical weapons authorized by the Imperial General Headquarters.

## Later life

After his return to China, Xiang Zhejun refused Chiang Kai-shek's invitation to serve as a prosecutor in the Supreme Court, but chose to teach at Shanghai College of Finance and Economics instead. He remained on the mainland after the establishment of the People's Republic of China. Even though Xiang had already retired when the Cultural Revolution erupted in 1965, he became a target for political persecution. He died in Shanghai in 1987 at the age of 91.
# L'Auditori

L'Auditori (Catalan pronunciation:) is a modern building of 42,000 square metres designed by the architect Rafael Moneo, opened on 22 March 1999, in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. It is in the centre of the new pole of urban development of Plaça de les Glòries, which brings together the three widest and longest avenues in the city (Diagonal, Gran Via and Meridiana) near the old centre of the city, its ‘Avenue’, next to the National Theatre, Glòries junction, the opening of the Diagonal on to the sea, district 22@ and the Forum area.
The building combines sober external modernity with Sala 1 Pau Casals with 2,200 seats, Sala 2 Oriol Martorell with 600 seats and Sala 3 Tete Montoliu with 400 seats. In the central access atrium, a monumental cubic glass light has been built in the shape of an impluvium, decorated with sketched paintings by Pablo Palazuelo. The acoustics of the halls has been carefully studied within the project by the specialised engineer Higini Arau.
In the same musical complex, there are the centres of the Orquestra Simfònica de Barcelona, the Escola Superior de Música de Catalunya and the Museu de la Música. This makes the Auditori a focus of musical life in the city in the different fields of divulgation, teaching and research.

# Tarsostenus

Tarsostenus is a genus of checkered beetles in the family Cleridae. It includes the cosmopolitan species T. univittatus.

## Description

Tarsostenus are oblong beetles 3.5–8.0 mm long and 1.0–2.0 mm wide. They can be recognised by a distinctly oblong pronotum with glabrous streaks on the disc and without lateral tubercles, the elytral disc with 10 rows of punctations, and the unguis lacking a denticle.
Several species within the genus have a transverse white band halfway along the elytra.

## Ecology

Based on those species whose ecology is known, Tarsostenus are predators on wood-boring beetles.
For example, T. univittatus preys on bostrichids (Lyctus, Sinoxylon, Xylobiops and Trogoxylon) and anobiines. It has been found in borer-infested lumber and wooden furniture from a range of different trees: ash, hickory, persimmon, white oak, Vahellia tortilis (=Acacia tortilis) Hayne raddiana, pecan, Cercis siliquastrum, Corymbia maculata (=Eucalyptus maculata), Ficus retusa, Schinus terebinthifolius and Triplochiton sclerodendron.
Tarsostenus hilaris has been collected from Eucalyptus "laden with various species of cerambycids".
The holotype of T. kanak was collected by beating unspecified vegetation in a rainforest.

## Species

# M. S. Purnalingam Pillai

Munnirpallam Sivasubramaniam Purnalingam Pillai (25 May 1866 – 6 June 1947) was a Tamil language-writer and Dravidologist.

## Early life

Purnalingam Pillai was born on 25 May 1866 to Sivasubramaniam Pillai at Munnirpallam in Tinnevely district. His parents belonged to a Saiva Vellalar family. After his initial education, Pillai joined as a lecturer of English at the Madras Christian College. During this period, Pillai got interested in studying Tamil history and civilization. He edited a Tamil journal called Gnanabodhini along with Parithimar Kalaignar.

## Dravidology and political activism

In 1904, Pillai published the first comprehensive study of Tamil literature as a historical narrative, titled A Primer of Tamil Literature. The narration was strongly imbibed with a Dravidian supremacist point of view. In the early 1920s, when excavations at Harappa and Mohenjodaro were in their nascent stages, Pillai, along with another Dravidologist, T. R. Sesha Iyengar, predicted that future discoveries would establish beyond doubt that the Indus Valley civilization was of Dravidian origin and also along with it the antiquity of Tamil civilization and language. He translated the entire Tirukkural into English in prose and published it in 1942.

# L. Royal Christensen

L. Royal Christensen (1915 – 22 March 1997) was an American epidemiologist who, along with André Cournand and William S. Tillett, won the 1949 Lasker Award for their work in showing that the enzymes streptokinase and streptodornase can be used to treat disease. Christensen was born in Everson, Washington. He did his undergraduate work at University of Washington and received a PhD from St. Louis University in 1941. He then taught microbiology at New York University School of Medicine-Bellevue Medical.
His work involving both the enzyme streptokinase, which can help dissolve blood clots, and purifying the enzyme streptodornase, which can be used to "dissolve secretions from infections" showed that they can be used to prevent the necessity of surgical removal of infections, was recognized by the Albert Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research in 1949. Described as thrombolytic therapy, this treatment was named as one of the top 10 discoveries in cardiology in the 20th century.
In 1953 he became director of Berg Institute for Experimental Physiology.

# Wizards (Mayfair Games)

Wizards is a supplement for fantasy role-playing games published by Mayfair Games in 1983.

## Contents

Wizards consists of six adventure scenarios intended for mid-level player characters, each one focusing on a powerful wizard from myth or fiction: Gilgamesh, Merlin, Circe, Morgan LeFay (by Lynn Abbey), Shadowjack (by Roger Zelazny), S. Carolinus (by Gordon R. Dickson), Aahz and Skeeve (by Robert Lynn Asprin), and Lythande (by Marion Zimmer Bradley). The book features introductions written by Abbey, Zelazny, Dickson, Asprin, and Bradley.

## Publication history

Wizards was edited by Bill Fawcett, with a cover by Tim White, and was published by Mayfair Games in 1983 as a 112-page book.
After the publication of Dwarves, the fourth Role Aids supplement, Shannon Appelcline noted that Mayfair Games "published additional AD&D Role Aids supplements quickly and in volume. The line featured many adventures as well as an increasing number of source books, including race- and class-related books" such as Dark Folk (1983), Wizards (1983) and Elves (1983), and that "Each product proudly proclaimed its use with AD&D, though the disclaimer was soon moved to the back cover".$^{:166}$

## Reception

Robert Dale reviewed Wizards for White Dwarf #57, giving the book a rating of 6 out of 10 overall. After giving poor ratings to Elves, Dwarves, and Dark Folk, he commented that "Fortunately for my blood pressure, Wizards is a much better book. It suffers from the same appalling presentation (anybody who produces an Arthurian adventure and talks about the 'Seige Perlious' should be bastinadoed to death), but succeeds almost in spite of itself." He comments how "I have not come across a more effective translation of literature into FRP, and I actually enjoyed reading some of the scenarios which, generally speaking, captured the atmosphere of the novels they drew from. The stories are well thought-out (especially Gilgamesh( have reasonably objectives and credible characterisations. I did take exception to the hybrid Dark Age and Chivalric background to the Arthurian adventure, for the justification of the action was inconsistent with the plot. Accepting this however, The Pillar of Clinschor plays well enough." Dale went on to say, "I retain mixed feelings about Wizards on the grounds that though there is material in the book for several evenings play, there will be problems integrating the differing scenarios into any long-term campaign (unless of course they have the same setting), and the book therefore lacks unity Wizards succeeds on its own terms, to some extent, despite the presentation, but it is of limited value otherwise."

# L'Rain (album)

L'Rain is the debut studio album by experimental musician Taja Cheek, who performs as L'Rain. The album was released in 2017 by New York City-based label Astro Nautico and included in best-of-year lists by publications including Pitchfork and Bandcamp Daily. The album cover is an image of Cheek's forearm, which is tattooed "L'Rain"; she chose the name after her mother, Lorraine, died during the making of the record.
L'Rain features Andrew Lappin on guitars, Alex Goldberg on drums and percussion, Jeremy Powell on saxophone, and TV on the Radio's Kyp Malone on backing vocals. Cheek composed and performs vocals, keyboards, synthesizers, guitar, bass, samples, and percussion on the album, which she co-produced with Lappin.

## Musical style

L'Rain has been recognized as an experimental album drawing on many traditions and genres; reviewers have identified the work's style and influences as including free jazz, ambient, noise music, and disco; R&B, post-punk, and avant-garde rock; shoegaze, psychedelic, hip hop, and outsider music; jazz, electronic music, and dream pop; soul and folk; and more.
L'Rain often layers and loops her vocals, and her work frequently features samples from her collection of hundreds of field recordings, some pitch-shifted or otherwise manipulated beyond recognition. She has spoken in interviews about her work's tendency to evade or reject categorization, and in an interview following the debut's release said, "I would hope that people would find elements of gospel, 90s r&b, and different genres of 'experimental music' (for lack of a better term) in my music, but I generally try to remain as illegible as possible. There is power in remaining indiscernible. I like to exist in a liminal space."

## Critical reception

Professional ratings :
| Review scores ||
| Source | Rating |
| Pitchfork | 6.8/10 |
Jay Balfour for Pitchfork assessed L'Rain with general positivity, calling it "a beautiful, untidy conduit of [Cheek's] grieving."
