# Die proof (philately)

In philately a Die Proof is a printed image pulled directly from the master die for an engraved stamp.
As a stamp is engraved it is necessary to check progress and a series of proofs are printed or 'pulled' from the die. These are known as progressive or contemporary die proofs.
Progressive proofs also form part of the design and approval process for a stamp. Any changes made during this process turn the proofs into essays which may be identified retrospectively because they differ from the issued stamp. Die proofs for engraved stamps are normally printed under great pressure onto oversized card and, as they are printed from the master die, they are normally of high quality. By contrast they may also be printed on India Paper, a strong, thin, opaque paper. The proofs are not necessarily in the same colour(s) as the issued stamp. A proof on India or other paper mounted on a die-sunk card is known as a hybrid proof.
Once the die is completed, it is transferred multiple times to the plate from which the stamps are printed.
Any pulls from the master die after the stamp has been printed are known as posthumous die proofs and are normally produced for presentation purposes, as samples of the printer's work or to satisfy philatelic demand (demand for the item amongst collectors of stamps).

# Mesa Water District

The Mesa Water District is a special district that manages water distribution to most of Costa Mesa, a portion of Newport Beach, and John Wayne Airport.

## History

The city of Costa Mesa, having been incorporated in 1953, provided municipal services such as a water supply to its residents. In 1957, the city held a special bond election for the construction of water-related infrastructure, which failed. During this period, various other water districts had been in operation in the Costa Mesa area, including the Newport Heights Irrigation District (formed 1918), the Fairview County Water District (formed 1946), and the Newport Mesa County Water District (formed 1954), which had previously replaced the Newport Mesa Irrigation District. With the multiple districts and the city having overlapping boundaries, Governor Edmund Brown, Sr. signed the Costa Mesa District Merger Law in 1959, which combined the districts and city services into one. Officially designated as the Costa Mesa County Water District, the district began operations on January 1, 1960.
In 1978, legislation was adopted to change the name to the Mesa Consolidated Water District. In January 2013, following a $500,000 rebranding effort, the district again changed their name to the Mesa Water District.
Mesa Water District began exploring the possibility of a merger with the Costa Mesa Sanitary District in 2016. Mesa Water was in support of the merger, with the Sanitary District opposed to it. The question of a merger was put before the voters in an advisory measure, 2016's Measure TT. The measure passed, but as an advisory measure had no legal effect, and the Costa Mesa Sanitary District remained opposed and sued the Mesa Water District. In 2018, the lawsuit was finally settled.
Mesa Water has faced controversies following rate increases in 2010, 2017, and 2022.

## Governance

Mesa Water District is governed by a five-member Board of Directors, each elected to a four-year term. Each director is elected by geographic division and has been since the districts formation in 1960. The current members of the Board are:
| Position | Board Member | Division | Entered office | Term ends |

# 301st Armored Cavalry Regiment

The 301st Armored Cavalry Regiment (301st ACR) was a Georgia-based reconnaissance unit of the United States Army Organized Reserve Corps, which briefly existed after World War II. Constituted in 1948, it was partially organized in 1949 before being disbanded in 1950.

## History

The 301st Armored Cavalry was constituted on 21 October 1948 in the Organized Reserve Corps, and partially organized from existing units on 25 April 1949. Its headquarters and headquarters company (HHC) was redesignated from the headquarters and headquarters troop of the 301st Cavalry Group, Mechanized, which had been constituted on 17 October 1946 in the Organized Reserve and activated on 28 October of that year in Atlanta.
The regiment was disbanded on 1 September 1950, and its HHC became the HHC of the 301st Armor Group. In 1954, the 301st was commanded by Colonel Percy H. Perkins. The 301st ACR did not inherit the lineage of the prewar 301st Cavalry Regiment, and was not authorized a coat of arms or distinctive unit insignia.
# Messa di Gloria (Rossini)

Messa di Gloria is a nine movement mass, composed by Gioacchino Rossini for the Arciconfraternità di San Luigi. First performed on 24 March 1820 in the Chiesa di San Ferdinando in Naples, it is in the traditional form of a "Gloria" mass, that is a setting of the first two prayers of the Catholic mass, the Kyrie and Gloria. (A "Gloria" mass omits the Credo, Sanctus, and Agnus Dei.) The Messa di Gloria was the only major piece of sacred music written while Rossini was still an active opera composer.

## Analysis

The "Kyrie" is divided into three portions, the first a dotted-rhythm "Kyrie eleison" for chorus in E-flat minor, the second, a more lyrical E-flat major "Christe eleison" for two tenors with the first minor-key section rounding out the prayer.
The "Gloria" portion takes up the vast majority of the work and is split up into operatic-style "numbers", soprano soloists alternating with tenors, basses, etc. The high point, emotionally, comes at the "Qui tollis", which begins with a slow portion for chorus and tenor, then concludes with a brilliant cabaletta ("Qui sedes"), showing off the extreme upper end of the tenor's range. Critics of the time were slightly scandalized by Rossini's morphing of sacred ceremony into opera seria, and even buffa, at times.
In his 1995 study of the Messa di Gloria, Jesse Rosenberg agrees with contemporary reports that Rossini was helped in the composition of the concluding "number" of the Messa, a four-part double fugue setting of "Cum sancto spiritu", by another Italian composer more versed in counterpoint, Pietro Raimondi.

# 2002 Harvard Crimson football team

The 2002 Harvard Crimson football team was an American football team that represented Harvard University during the 2002 NCAA Division I-AA football season. The Crimson finished second in the Ivy League.
In their ninth year under head coach Timothy Murphy, the Crimson compiled a 7–3 record and outscored opponents 267 to 230. Neil Rose was the team captain.
Harvard's 6–1 conference record placed second in the Ivy League standings. The Crimson outscored Ivy opponents 190 to 154.
The Crimson appeared briefly, twice, in the national Division I-AA rankings: they were ranked No. 23 in the preseason poll, but dropped out of the top 25 before playing a game; and after opening the year with two wins, they were ranked No. 25 in the first poll of October. After their record dropped to 2–1, they again fell out of the national rankings, and did not reappear in 2002.
On November 16, the annual Harvard–Penn game was the first Division I-AA matchup to host an episode of ESPN's "College GameDay", which had only visited Division I-A sites in its first nine years of remote broadcasts. The Ivy League had called ESPN to suggest highlighting the matchup of two teams with 5–0 conference records.
Harvard played its home games at Harvard Stadium in the Allston neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts.

# Abdushukurboy Madrasa

The Abdushukurboy Madrasa was a madrasa (Islamic school) located in Bukhara Region. The madrasa no longer exists today.

## Background

The Abdushukurboy madrasa was built in 1892 on the Azizon street, during the reign of Amir 'Abd al-Ahad Khan of the Emirate of Bukhara, by Abdushukurboy. There are several sources that provide information about the madrasa.
According to Abdurauf Fitrat, the annual endowment of the madrasa was twenty-five thousand tenges. The researcher Abdusattor Jumanazarov studied several waqf documents related to the madrasa and gave some information about the madrasa. The waqf document states that the madrasa was built of brick and plaster on the Azizon alayhi rahma street, on the eastern side of the Zargaron madrasa of the Ashtarkhanid ruler Abdulaziz Khan. The madrasa consisted of rooms, a mosque and a lecture hall. The madrasa was bordered by the Zargaron madrasa on the west, a street on the east and north, and the houses of Abdushukurboy and Bohqa people on the south. The endower (waqif) endowed the madrasa with seven shops on the north side and 300 tanob (a unit of land) of pure land in the Tuzotli village of the Qorako'l district. The endower himself was the head (mutavvali) of the madrasa. After him, his descendants performed this duty.
The madrasa waqf document was written after the madrasa was built in the month of Jumada al-Awwal in the year 1310 AH (December 1892 CE), during the reign of Amir 'Abd al-Ahad Khan of Bukhara. Another copy of the madrasa waqf document has been preserved. In addition, there are four more documents related to the activities of the madrasa. The salaries of the teachers (mudarris) of the madrasa were 25 tenges. Sadri Ziyo wrote that the madrasa had 39 rooms. The Abdushukurboy madrasa consisted of 35 rooms. The madrasa was built in the Central Asian architectural style. The madrasa was made of brick, wood, stone and plaster.
# Lucius Junius Brutus Damasippus

Lucius Junius Brutus Damasippus was urban praetor in 82 BC during Sulla's civil war. When Pompey joined the Sullans in 83 BC, Brutus was one of the three commanders sent against him. In an unnamed battle, the first of Pompey's career, Brutus was defeated. After the younger Marius' defeat at Sacriportus and retreat to Praeneste in 82 BC, he had Damasippus assemble the Senate and purge it of suspected Sullan sympathisers, leading to the death of four senators. He then joined consul Gnaeus Papirius Carbo in Etruria and attempted to relieve the younger Marius at Praeneste. Sulla had Damasippus killed at the Battle of the Colline Gate.
# Metropolitan Conference (1923–1931)

# Dale Dubin

Dale Dubin (born 1940), is a former American plastic surgeon and author of several cardiology textbooks, though never practicing or being trained as a cardiologist.
Dubin practiced medicine in Tampa, Florida, and gained fame within the medical community with the 1972 publication of Rapid Interpretation of EKG's, a best-selling textbook suited for medical students and junior residents. In it, Dubin adopts a simplistic fill-in-the-blank style to teach the basics of reading electrocardiograms. In the fiftieth printing of the book, he hid within the copyright notice an offer to give his prized 1965 Ford Thunderbird to anyone who actually read the message and responded. Out of 60,000 copies in that printing, only 5 readers noticed and responded, and Dubin's own daughter delivered the car to the winner (selected by a random drawing). Dubin also wrote Adventure in the Heartland: Exploring the Heart's Ionic-Molecular Microcosm and Understanding Cardio-pulmonary Resuscitation.
In 1986, Dubin, age 46, was arrested and pled guilty to charges related to child pornography and cocaine. He was sentenced to five years in prison and his Florida medical license was revoked. Dubin served three years and was released in December 1989.
In addition to his medical work, Dubin was for a time an avid hibiscus grower; a variety ("Dragon's Breath") he developed won Hibiscus of the Year in 1999. Dubin owns a patent on a Hibiscus plant he cultivated, named "Hoosiers." The flowers are white with a dark red border. He has also been a collector of gemstones, and in 1972 he created what was then the world's largest gem, the "Brazilian Princess" topaz valued at $1 million, by repeated radiation treatments of a 9.5- pound topaz that he had purchased for $600. The stone now resides in the American Museum of Natural History.

# L2TPv3

Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol version 3 is an IETF standard related to L2TP that can be used as an alternative protocol to Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) for encapsulation of multiprotocol Layer 2 communications traffic over IP networks. Like L2TP, L2TPv3 provides a pseudo-wire service, but scaled to fit carrier requirements.
L2TPv3 can be regarded as being to MPLS what IP is to ATM: a simplified version of the same concept, with much of the same benefit achieved at a fraction of the effort, at the cost of losing some technical features considered less important in the market. In the case of L2TPv3, the features lost are teletraffic engineering features considered important in MPLS. However, there is no reason these features could not be re-engineered in or on top of L2TPv3 in later products. The protocol overhead of L2TPv3 is also significantly bigger than MPLS.
