# Acronychia vestita

Acronychia vestita, commonly known as white aspen, lemon aspen, hairy aspen or fuzzy lemon aspen, is a species of rainforest tree that is endemic to Queensland. It has simple, elliptic to egg-shaped leaves with the narrower end towards the base, flowers arranged in relatively large groups, mostly in leaf axils and fleshy, pear-shaped to more or less spherical fruit.

## Description

Acronychia vestita is a tree that typically grows to a height of 21 m (69 ft). The leaves are simple, elliptic to egg-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, 80–230 mm (3.1–9.1 in) long and 38–115 mm (1.5–4.5 in) wide on a petiole 10–40 mm (0.39–1.57 in) long. The flowers are arranged in relatively large groups 40–70 mm (1.6–2.8 in) long, mainly in leaf axils, each flower on a pedicel 3–4.5 mm (0.12–0.18 in) long. The four sepals are 1–1.5 mm (0.039–0.059 in) wide, the four petals 6–7.5 mm (0.24–0.30 in) long, and the eight stamens alternate in length. Flowering occurs from February to March and the fruit is a fleshy, pear-shaped to more or less spherical drupe 10–20 mm (0.39–0.79 in) long.

## Taxonomy

Acronychia vestita was first formally described in 1864 by Ferdinand von Mueller in Fragmenta phytographiae Australiae.

# Chestnut-eared laughingthrush

The chestnut-eared laughingthrush (Ianthocincla konkakinhensis) is a species of bird in the family Leiothrichidae. It is found in Vietnam and possibly Laos.
This species measures 22 cm (8.7 in). This laughingthrush has boldly and irregularly barred black and white upperparts, a black-streaked grey forehead, chestnut ear-coverts, and a white-tipped tail with a broad black sub-terminal band.
Endemic to Kon Tum Province, Vietnam, the only known site for this species is a small area in Kon Ka Kinh National Park (which is also the origin of the species' scientific name). Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests. It is threatened by habitat loss.
The chestnut-eared laughingthrush was originally placed in the genus Garrulax but following the publication of a comprehensive molecular phylogenetic study in 2018, it was moved to the resurrected genus Ianthocincla.

# Arsen Kvezerov

Arsen Aslanovich Kvezerov is an Ossetian politician from the partially recognized Caucasian Republic of South Ossetia, which most of the United Nations recognizes as part of Georgia, occupied by Russia.

## Biography

In 2019 Kvezerov served on a committee denouncing the 1918-1920 Georgian–Ossetian conflict as a genocide of the Ossetian people.
In the fall of 2023 South Ossetia saw a massive increase in price for gasoline and other petroleum products. Alan Tekhov claimed that the 261.8% increase in import export rates was not impacting the price of petroleum products, and that the cause of the increase was due to the government enforcing the 20% value-added tax at the South Ossetian-Russian border. Kvezerov retorted that the price of gas was quickly escaping rates that the average South Ossetian can afford, and that this price hike, if not mitigated, could result in a crisis.
Kvezerov is a vocal supporter of South Ossetia agriculture, frequently supporting efforts to support farmers and increase domestic foodstuff production. In February 2024 Kvezerov dissented to a subsidy package for small and medium-sized business, stating that the money would be better allocated for farmers. Kvezerov also advocates for reducing customs and duties imposed on people traveling from Russia to South Ossetia.
Kvezerov was named chairman of the parliamentary the accounting commission. Due to this Kvezerov is frequently involved in committees and negotiations revolving around the state budget and allocation of state resources. In 2023, as Deputy Chairman of the Committee on Economics, Small Business, and Agriculture, Kvezerov went on a state visit to Abkhazia during their Victory Day Parades exchanging gifts with Abkhazian lawmakers. Kvezerov also served on the committee on foreign policy and inter-parliamentary relations, approving a motion to increase coopreation with the Syrian People's Assembly.
In 2022 Kvezerov, alongside Robert Ostaev and Harry Muldarov, personally delivered aid to Ossetian fighters on the side of Russia during their invasion of Ukraine.

# Lapwing (1769 EIC packet)

Lapwing was a packet ship that made two round-trips to India for the British East India Company (EAC). Currently, both her origin and her fate are obscure, though it is possible that she was launched at Hull in 1745 and was last listed in 1789.

## EIC voyages
### EIC voyage #1 (1769–71)

Captain Henry Gardiner left The Downs on 6 June 1769, bound for Bengal and Madras. Lapwing left Kolkatta on 24 August 1770 and on 12 October was at Madras. She reached the Cape on 16 December and St Helena on 6 January 1771, and arrived back at The Downs on 16 April.
Lapwing stopped at Falmouth before reaching The Downs and Captain Gardiner came overland to London. He brought the news that although Madras was quiet, a threat of war hung over Bengal. The Mogul emperor (Shah Alam II) had allied with the Marathas, and Sujah Dowla (the Nawab of Bengal), would require British assistance.

### EIC voyage #2 (1771–73)

Captain Gardiner sailed from Portsmouth on 2 September 1771, bound for Bengal. Lapwing reached False Bay on 25 November, and arrived at Calcutta on 23 April 1772. Homeward bound she was at Ingeli, a point on the west side of the Hooghli Estuary on 17 November. She left Bengal on 20 September and Madras on 14 October. She reached the Cape on 26 January 1773, St Helena on 16 February, and Ascension Island on 22 February. She arrived at Falmouth on 15 April, and returned to The Downs on 1 May.
When Lapwing reached Falmouth her purser left her and travelled overland to India House in London. There he reported her arrival at Falmouth, and that Captain Gardiner was no longer with her. (He had sought employment with the Bengal Pilot Service.) The purser also reported that a terrible famine had descended on Bengal, killing an enormous number of people. Bad weather had destroyed the "fruits of the earth", and the country ships that normally brought provisions had not arrived.

## Possible origin and fate

Lloyd's Register (LR) for 1776 showed one vessel named Lapwing. She was a brig of 120 tons (bm), launched at Hull in 1745 that had undergone a thorough repair in 1765. Her master was Henry Peach, her owner was W. Burstall, and her trade was Hull–London. She was last listed in 1789.

# Larry Johnson (musician)

Larry Alonzo Johnson (May 15, 1938 – August 6, 2016) was an American blues singer and guitarist.

## Life and career

Johnson was born in Wrightsville, Georgia. His father was a preacher who traveled extensively. This led to Johnson being exposed to blues records by Blind Boy Fuller, who inspired Johnson to learn the rudiments of guitar playing. He served in the Navy between 1955 and 1959, before relocating to New York City. After his befriending Brownie and Stick McGhee, Johnson found employment recording with Big Joe Williams, Harry Atkins, and Alec Seward. The latter gave Johnson an introduction to Reverend Gary Davis.
Johnson's first single release was "Catfish Blues" / "So Sweet" (1962). His first album was produced by iconic blues writer/producer Sam Charters on Prestige Records entitled The Blues/A New Generation (PR 7142), in 1964. Hank Adkins was his second guitarist on this record. He made numerous live appearances with Davis over that decade. In 1971, Johnson released Fast and Funky, but his live playing gradually reduced. A couple of low key albums appeared in the 1980s, before Johnson received more regular live work in the 1990s, particularly in Europe. Whilst there his output included Railroad Man (1990) and Blues for Harlem (1999). Two Gun Green followed in 2002.
Johnson died on August 6, 2016, aged 78, in a nursing home in Harlem, New York.
