# Wild Mary Sudik

The Wild Mary Sudik gusher was an oil well blowout that took place on March 26, 1930 in what is now Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA. The gusher from Mary Sudik No. 1 well received extensive media coverage and was the subject of daily radio reports by NBC's Floyd Gibbons and newsreels that were shown in movie theaters. The gusher flowed for eleven days before it was capped on the third try.
Mary Sudik No. 1 well was developed by the Indian Territory Illuminating Oil Company on the property of Vincent and Mary Sudik. The well, located about 2,000 feet (610 m) to the southeast of the present intersection of Interstate 240 and Bryant Avenue, to the south of the Oklahoma City center, blew out when the drilling crew underestimated well pressures in the newly developed Wilcox formation, producing 20,000 barrels of oil and 200,000,000 cubic feet (5,700,000 m$^3$) of gas per day from the 6,471-foot (1,972 m) well. According to the well completion report, it produced 15,441 barrels of oil in a test run for 13 hours and 15 minutes. The crew had neglected to keep sufficient drilling mud in the well, and did not use a safety head, contrary to the accepted practice of the time, running the well "wild." The initial flow of gas from the well changed to oil after about a day, with oil fountaining up to 400 feet (120 m) into the air. Oil vapor blew in the wind as far as Norman, 11 miles (18 km) to the south. A safety zone was established around the well to prevent fire. The American Iron and Machine Company was engaged to cap the well, led by superintendent H. M. Myracle. The first attempt failed after twelve hours, but a second attempt restricted the flow, and oil was diverted into a pit until a final seal could be effected. A total of 211,600 barrels of oil was recovered from the vicinity of the well, and as many as 800,000 barrels were believed to have been wasted. Once controlled, Mary Sudik No. 1 was the most productive well in the world in 1930.
The blowout, and a similar gas well blowout in Oklahoma City the day after the Mary Sudik well was brought under control, stimulated the development and use of blowout preventers as standard equipment in petroleum well drilling, and resulted in greater regulation of well drilling in Oklahoma City.
The Sudiks were Czech immigrants who moved to Oklahoma from Nebraska in 1904 to buy their 160-acre (65 ha) dairy farm. They expanded the farm to two additional quarter sections, one of which, bought in 1924, was the site of the wild well. Mary had been the first to sign the well lease, so the wells on the property were named after her. Mary Valish Sudik, a modest woman, was offered roles in a vaudeville tour and a movie. She and her husband instead moved into town and lived quietly on the royalties from the thirteen wells on their property. Mary died in 1942, her obituary appearing on the front page of the Daily Oklahoman. Vincent died in 1940. Their son Orie was killed while working on a well in the Moore oil field of Oklahoma in 1945.
The Mary Sudik No. 1 well was finally plugged on June 22, 1974 by the operator, Cities Service Oil Company.
# Wild Men of Borneo

The Wild Men of Borneo, Waino and Plutanor, were a pair of exceptionally strong dwarf brothers who were most famously associated with P. T. Barnum and his freak show exhibitions.

## Life

Waino and Plutanor were actually Hiram W. and Barney Davis, two mentally disabled brothers from a Pleasant Township, Knox County, Ohio farm, born in 1825 in England and 1827 in Ohio respectively. The 1850 census for them suggests they were born slightly later in 1829 and 1831. Their parents were David Harrison Davis and Catherine Blydenburgh. After their father's death in 1842, their mother remarried to William Porter.
They were each 40 inches (100 centimeters) tall and weighed about 45 pounds (20 kg), yet could perform feats of great strength, such as lifting heavy weights and wrestling with audience members on stage. Discovered and promoted by a traveling showman known as Doctor Warner in 1852, Hiram and Barney were given new names, Waino and Plutanor, and a sensational backstory – they were said to be from the island of Borneo, where they had been captured after a great struggle with armed sailors. They initially had modest success, but at least one newspaper believed them to be dwarves from the United States. The two were exhibited at state fairs across the United States. In the 1860 census they were living in Somerville, Massachusetts, in the household of Henry Harvey, a showman. At some point in the next few years management of the pair was transferred to a relative of Doctor Warner, Hanford A. Warner.
In 1874, they were valued at $50,000. In January 1877 they were performing at the New American Museum located in Manhattan. In June 1880 at the time of the federal census, they were touring with William C. Coup's circus and were enumerated under their assumed identities. By 1882 Waino and Plutanor became involved with P. T. Barnum and his traveling exhibitions. With Barnum's fabled promotional skill, the careers of the Wild Men of Borneo took off and over the course of the next 25 years, the pair earned approximately $200,000, which was an enormous sum in that era, equivalent to $6,000,000 today.
Their exhibitions primarily consisted of performing acts of great strength, such as lifting adult audience members and wrestling with both audience members and each other. They were said to be able to lift up to 300 pounds (140 kg) each. In November 1887 they were performing at Eugene Robinson's Dime Museum and Theatre. In the 1890s, Hanford's son Ernest took over the management duties of the Davis brothers due to the elder Hanford becoming blind.
In 1903 the brothers were withdrawn from exhibitions by the Warner family. Hiram died in Waltham, Massachusetts on March 16, 1905. Barney stopped working after his brother's death. Their former manager Hanford Warner died in 1910. Barney died on May 31, 1912, at Waltham, Massachusetts at the Warner family home. The two are buried together in Mount Vernon, Ohio, under a gravestone marked "Little Men." Newspapers from the time report them being buried in Waltham, Massachusetts. It is unknown when their bodies were moved to Ohio.
# Wild Men's Dance

Wild Men's Dance (aka Danse Sauvage) is a piano work by Russian-American composer Leo Ornstein, dating from either 1913 or 1914. It is widely regarded as the first classical composition to be composed almost entirely of brash tone clusters, predating the "forearm" music of Henry Cowell by a few years. In 1918, critic Charles L. Buchanan described Ornstein's innovation: "[He] gives us masses of shrill, hard dissonances, chords consisting of anywhere from eight to a dozen notes made up of half tones heaped one upon another."

## Composition

Ornstein had begun composing works containing dissonant and startling sounds in the early 1910s. Ornstein himself was unsettled by the earliest of these compositions: "I really doubted my sanity at first. I simply said, what is that? It was so completely removed from any experience I ever had." On March 27, 1914, in London, he gave his first public performance of works under the banner of "futurism", now known as modernism. Wild Men's Dance was the foremost piece of these concerts.
Music scholar Gordon Rumson would describe Wild Men's Dance as, "a work of vehement, unruly rhythm, compounded of dense chord clusters [...] and brutal accents. Complex rhythms and gigantic crashing chords traverse the whole range of the piano. This remains a work for a great virtuoso able to imbue it with a burning, ferocious energy."

# Acacia browniana

Acacia browniana, commonly known as Brown's wattle, is a shrub of the genus Acacia and the subgenus Pulchellae. It is native to an area in the South West and Peel regions of Western Australia.

## Description

The shrub typically grows to a height of 0.2 to 2 metres (0.7 to 6.6 ft). The pinnae form in pairs along the branchlet. The proximal pinnae are 1 to 4 millimetres (0.04 to 0.16 in) in length while the distal are 2 to 30 mm (0.08 to 1.18 in) long. It blooms from May to November and produces cream-yellow flowers. Each inflorescence is simple forming one or two per axil. The heads have a globular shape that is sometimes obloid with a diameter of 4 to 6 mm (0.16 to 0.24 in) composed of 12 to 21 flowers. Following flowering it will form green, glabrous narrowly-oblong seed pods with a length of 1 to 4.5 cm (0.4 to 1.8 in) and 5 to 9 mm (0.20 to 0.35 in) wide. the brown seeds have an oblong to elliptic shape and are 2 to 4 mm (0.08 to 0.16 in) long.

## Classification

The species was first formally described by the botanist Heinrich Wendland in 1819 as part of the work Flora: oder Allgemeine Botanischer Zeitund. Synonyms for this species include Acacia strigosa and Racosperma brownianum.
There are five varieties:
* Acacia browniana var. browniana
* Acacia browniana var. endlicheri
* Acacia browniana var. glaucescens
* Acacia browniana var. intermedia
* Acacia browniana var. obscura

## Distribution

The plant is found in wet areas, near such as around streams and rivers, also on flats and ridges, hills and among granite outcrops in south western Western Australia from around Bindoon and Mogumber in the north around the coast to Augusta in the south and Manypeaks. It grows well in sandy, loamy, gravelly soils often containing laterite.
# Active (1800 ship)

Active was a French ship launched in 1793. She came into British hands circa 1799 as a prize. Peter Everitt Mestaer purchased her and named her Active. She made one voyage to India for the British East India Company (EIC), which held a monopoly at the time on trade between Great Britain and India or China. From 1802 she was a London-based merchantman, trading first with Hamburg and then more generally. She was last listed in 1815.

## Career

Active was first listed in the Register of Shipping and in Lloyd's Register in 1801. Both showed her owner as P. Mestaer, and her trade as London-Bengal. Her master was J.L. Smith or J. Smith.
Captain John Greitin Smyth acquired a letter of marque on 6 December 1800. She had been tendered to the EIC to bring back rice from Bengal. She was one of 28 vessels that sailed on that mission between December 1800 and February 1801.
It is not clear when she sailed for India, but she arrived back at Portsmouth on 10 November 1801, having left Madras on 5 July and Saint Helena on 19 September.
On her return, Active started to trade between London and Hambro. This continued through Lloyd's Register for 1807. Active was no longer listed in Lloyd's Register in 1808, but she reappeared in the Register of Shipping for 1809 (the Register is not available on line for 1807 or 1808). In 1809 Active's master was J. Welch, her owner was P. Mestaer, and her trade was London transport.

## Fate

Active was last listed in the Register of Shipping for 1815. Her master was J. Welsh, her owner was P. Mestaer, and her trade was London transport.

# Active (1789 ship)

Active was launched at Bermuda in 1789. She transferred to Liverpool circa 1798 and then spent a few years as a West Indiaman. Between 1802 and 1803 she made one voyage as a slave ship in the triangular trade in enslaved persons. She was captured off West Africa around late 1804 on her second voyage before she could start acquiring slaves.

## Career

Active first appeared in Lloyd's Register (LR) in 1798,
| Year | Master | Owner | Trade | Source |
| 1798 | T.Davis | M'Burnie | Liverpool-Martinique | LR |
| 1799 | T.Davis R.Johnson | M'Burnie | Liverpool-Martinique | LR |
| 1800 | T.Davis R.Johnson | M'Burnie | Liverpool-Martinique | LR |

| 1802 | W.Wilding J.Noumus | M'Burnie Newton | Liverpool–Newfoundland Liverpool–Africa | LR |
1st voyage transporting enslaved people (1802–1803):: Captain Isaac Nomus sailed from Liverpool on 4 August 1802. In 1802, 155 vessels sailed from English ports, bound for Africa to acquire and transport enslaved people; 122 of these vessels sailed from Liverpool.
Active arrived at Demerara on 19 December 1802. She sailed from Demerara on 17 March 1803 and arrived back at Liverpool on 12 May. She had left with 22 crew members and she suffered one crew death during the voyage. At some point on the voyage, Captain Robert Hall replaced Nomus.
2nd voyage transporting enslaved people (1803–loss): Captain James Dalrymple acquired a letter of marque on 2 September 1803. Captain John Dalrymple sailed from Liverpool on 26 October. In 1803, 99 vessels sailed from English ports, bound for Africa to acquire and transport enslaved people; 83 of these vessels sailed from Liverpool.

## Fate

When Fame arrived at Demerara she brought news that Active, Dalrymple, master, and Prudence, Darby, master, had been captured on the Windward Coast.
In 1804, 30 British vessels in the triangular trade were lost; eight of these vessels were lost off the coast of Africa. During the period 1793 to 1807, war, rather than maritime hazards or resistance by the captives, was the greatest cause of vessel losses among British enslaving vessels.

# Adad-Nirari of Qatna

Adad-Nirari or H̱addu-Nirari, was a king of Qatna in the 14th century BC.

## Reign

Adad-Nirari is an Akkadian name. The king reigned for 45 years in the 14th century BC, and was mentioned in the inventories of Ninegal, found in Qatna. A tablet from Qatna records him stationing an army of chariot archers in the city of Tukad, in Mount Lebanon. The name of his queen was Pizallum.

## Theories
### Identity

Michael Astour suggested identifying Adad-Nirari with Adad-Nirari of Nuhašše; a hypothesis supported by Thomas Richter, who believes that Adad-Nirari ruled Qatna through a šakkanakku (military governor) called Lullu, citing that the latter's name appears in the Qatanite inventories at the time of Adad-Nirari. According to Richter, Adad-Nirari of Nuhašše ruled the second Syrian power after Mitanni, and was removed by the Hittites which gave Qatna its independence back .
This theory is debated; the Shattiwaza treaty between Mitanni and the Hittites mentioned Qatna independently from Nuhašše during the Hittite king Šuppiluliuma I's first Syrian war; If Qatna was part of the Nuhaššite kingdom, its submission to the Hittites would not have been mentioned separately. Jacques Freu rejected Richter's hypothesis; citing different arguments, he concluded that Adad-Nirari of Nuhašše was a contemporary of Idadnda of Qatna who ruled during the first Syrian war, a successor of the Qatanite Adad-Nirari.
