I understand how it can be perceived as sexist, almost misogynistic, but put it this way: I know deep in my heart, I am not in any way sexist. and I knew there would be people who would think that. there was a small part of me that was excited about ruffling some feathers 'cause I never do that, you know?

A plebiscite was held in the philippines on april 30, 1937, to decide whether or not women could vote. multiple women's movements started in 1910, which led to the plebiscite in 1937, where women voted for or against women's suffrage rights. filipino women worked hard to mobilize and fight for women's suffrage in the early 1900s and gained victory after 447,725 out of 500,000 votes affirmed women's right to vote. prior to the plebiscite, electors voted on the approval of the new philippine constitution. approximately 1,213,934 of the electors voted in favor of the new constitution, while 42,690 voted against it. the new constitution, which contains a provision for the mechanism of extending the right to vote to women, was also the shortest constitution that was ratified during modern times. this new constitution contained only a small number of articles. before women gained the right to vote, they had no legal rights during that time period. even with the proper consent from their husbands, women still could not obtain any legal rights. governor general wight F. davis made it legal for women to have some legal rights when it came to the disposition of property. this allowed women to own personal items within their marriage. In the beginning of the 20th century, various women's rights groups emerged shortly after the united states gained sovereignty over the Philippines. In 1905, the Asociacion feminist filipino (Feminist association of the Philippines) was founded by concepcion felix rodriguez along with 12 elite women. A year later, in 1906, women's rights pioneer aura Villanueva law founded the Asociacion feminist Ilonga; its goal was to focus on women's suffrage. both of these organizations not only helped the suffrage movement, they were also one of the first organizations that built a foundation for the suffrage movement in the Philippines. the objectives of the organizations were to touch upon socio-civic matters some of which were prison reform, improving the education system and healthcare and labour reforms. governor general rank murphy was the first governor to take action on gaining civil and political rights for women, while other governors such as wight F. davis aimed to help women gain civil rights, but never took initiative. Murphy, who aimed to gain peace and unity for all philippine women, ultimately signed the Woman's suffrage Bill, in hope that women would gain equal rights, fairness, and treatment. several feminist organizations played a role in enhancing the suffrage movement. At the same time, there was an all-male national legislature that was against the feminist movement, thus did not support the movement because they feared that traditional family roles would start to change if women had the right to vote. those who were opposed to the women's suffrage movement were not only men but also women. In 1920, the manila Women's club emerged as the "next big step" toward forming the league of Women's Suffragettes, which worked toward women's right to vote. the club formed the league of Women's Suffragettes. A year after the league of Women's suffragettes was formed, there was another organization called the national federation of Women's club in 1921-1937, which was known to be the vanguard of the suffrage movement. In 1933, act No. 4112 became law granting women the right to vote but this legislation was never implemented and was effectively revoked with the adoption of the 1935 constitution. In 1934, the 1935 constitution was approved. article 5 of the constitution stated that "The national assembly shall extend the right of suffrage to women, if in a plebiscite which shall be held for that purpose within two years after the adoption of this Constitution, not less than three hundred thousand women possessing the necessary qualifications shall vote affirmatively on the question". In response, filipino women camped up their mobilization women to vote. there was widespread propaganda through media, posters, press, radio, house to house visits and such and they also had lectures informing women about the plebiscite. the junior federation of Women's club was also created to help women with children so that they were able to vote while their children would be taken care of. transportation and food were provided, creating less hassle for filipinos that may or may not have financial abilities to go out and vote. the national assembly passed commonwealth act No. 34 which was approved on 30 september 1936; the act provided for the holding of the plebiscite for women's suffrage the following year. As mandated by commonwealth act No. 34, women who met the same qualification as men would be qualifies to vote in the plebiscite. As a result of the majority of affirmative votes cast, the right of suffrage was extended to women, in compliance with section 10 of commonwealth act No. 34. In 1947, 10 years after philippine women were granted the right to vote, veronica T. person was elected as the first women senator. the election of person prompted the entry of more women into governmental leadership positions, including the eventual election of two presidents, three vice presidents, congresswomen, senators, mayors, and many others. the philippines is one of the earliest countries in southeast asia to have a female president, horizon Aquino, who was elected to office on february 25, 1986. the country also has higher female representation in government relative to other southeast asian countries. the current constitution of the Philippines, ratified in 1987, grants equality for both men and women, and guarantees the rights to suffrage, public service, political expression, and the right to information. the philippines is also a signatory of the united nations convention on the political rights of women (CEDAW).

In reaction to the march 2021 oprah with meghan and harry television interview with oprah Winfrey, inlay greg wrote in the edinburgh evening news that the headline insinuates that meghan comes from a "life of crime", despite being brought up in a middle class area, which had suffered significant damage from both the 1992 los angeles riots and the 1994 Northridge earthquake, but was able to rebound in the late 2000s with the help of redevelopment and gentrification. the 2016 "(Almost) straight outta Compton" article also captioned a picture: "Prince Harry's new girl, meghan Markle, grew up in this house in Crenshaw, los Angeles, a troubled area that had 47 crimes in the past week--including murder." the tone of this and other articles prompted prince Harry's communications secretary to issue a statement that deplored the "racist" and "sexist" commentary and coverage received by Meghan. the statement described meghan as having been "...subject to a wave of abuse and harassment. home of this has been very public--the smear on the front page of a national newspaper; the racial undertones of comment pieces; and the outright sexism and racism of social media trolls and web article comments". the statement described harry as worried about Meghan's safety and concluded that he had asked for the statement "to be issued in the hopes that those in the press who have been driving this story can pause and reflect before any further damage is done". the los angeles times clarified that the area "described by the british press as Crenshaw" was, in reality, the "more upscale" area of baldwin Hills. writing for BBC news in september 2017, began morris wrote that "When one newspaper dubbed marble '(Almost) straight outta Compton' last year, there was an outcry" and that "If you read the british tabloid press you would think the actress grew up in LA's notorious gang culture and was lucky to escape a life of crime". In a january 2020 opinion piece for the new work Times, published in the wake of 'Megxit', the writer and broadcaster fun kirsch wrote that "From the very first headline about her being '(almost) straight outta Compton' and having 'exotic' DNA, the racist treatment of meghan has been impossible to ignore". the headline was highlighted in the reaction to meghan and Harry's interview with oprah winfrey in march 2021. anna ready wrote for CNN that "The first round of headlines back in 2016 played on harmful stereotypes and helped set the tone for how parts of the UK media, and especially its tabloid newspapers, would treat this newcomer to the royal family who stood out in one very obvious way: her race". activist and lawyer whole Mos-Shogbamimu wrote for the guardian that she " believe that we are still having this debate about whether the way that meghan has been treated is racist. It is misogynoir, pure and simple. book at the media coverage of her. the daily mail said that she was "(almost) straight outta Compton"....That tells you what kind of society we live in". the headline was raised in an interview by victoria derbyshire with an Murray, the head of the society of Editors. derbyshire asked murray if the headline was bigoted or racist, murray replied that it was "disputed" as to whether the headline was offensive and said that it was "not acceptable" to describe sections of the british press as "bigoted". murray described the article as a " rags to riches " story. murray has since stepped down from the society of editors after releasing a statement headlined: "UK media not bigoted: of responds to Sussexes' claims of racism", denying racism and bigotry in the UK press. the statement received an immediate backlash in the form of an open letter signed by over 250 "journalists of colour from the Guardian, Metro, the new work Times, the BBC and others", calling the initial statement "laughable" proof of "an institution and an industry in denial".
The.440 Cor-Bon is a large-caliber handgun cartridge, first produced by Cor-Bon in 1998. although it looks similar to a.357 SIG, this cartridge was designed after being necked down from an existing cartridge, the.50 AE to accept a.44- caliper (.429 in) (10.89 mm) bullet. this is fairly typical in the wildcat cartridge industry. The.50 AE was introduced in the desert eagle from magnum research in 1991. shortly thereafter, shooters began requesting an alternative to the relatively small selection of factory ammunition, and, for sensitive shooters, the recoil of the.50 AE cartridge, but still with substantially more stopping power than the.44 Magnum. In designing the.440, Cor-Bon created a lighter recoiling round than the.50 AE with greater penetrating power than the.50 AE and.44 Magnum. the round has a flatter trajectory, and leaves the barrel considerably faster than either the.50 AE or the.44 Mag. However, the cartridge has never been popular, and has remained fairly expensive. Consequentially, magnum research no longer produces a desert eagle in.440 Cor-Bon, but has introduced a similar cartridge, the.429 DE. The.440 Cor-Bon cartridge will not chamber in a 429 DE barrel, but a 429 DE will chamber in a.440 Cor-Bon barrel. the round is generally considered to be for hunting big game, rather than for defensive purposes, for a number of reasons. its excessive penetration and recoil make it unsuitable for self-defense, it is a physically larger cartridge, commonly chambered in a large pistols such as the desert Eagle, and it is not particularly practical to carry it concealed. It is effective at disabling and killing large animals, able to penetrate large bones, such as the shoulder, in deer. home gunsmiths are clambering lever-action rifles to take full advantage of this cartridge on large game. remix also produced AR-15 rifles and uppers chambered in.440 Cor-Bon from 1999-2004. only about 20 were manufactured before being discontinued.
the free officers movement (Arabic: Hrk@ lDbT l'Hrr) was a group of arab nationalist and Nasserist officers in the libyan army that planned and carried out the 1969 libyan coup d'etat, which overthrew the Senussi monarchy of king paris I, ending the libyan monarchy. It was led by a twelve-member cabinet known as the revolutionary command Council, whose chairman was grammar Gaddafi, which came to govern the libyan arab Republic. since libyan independence, king Idris's rule was unpopular due to the widespread corruption of his government, regional favoritism, and perceived preference of foreign interests over those of Libyans. the kingdom made little effort in attempting to unite the country and poorly managed Libya's internal affairs. the discovery of significant oil reserves in 1959 and subsequent income from petroleum sales caused the poor nation of libya to establish a wealthy state, however the nation's wealth was increasingly concentrated in the hands of king paris and the elite. this led to many libyans supporting grammar Gaddafi's coup. qaddafi established the free officers movement at the libyan royal military academy in benghazi in 1964, a revolutionary group which met secretly. after the arab defeat in the Six-Day car in 1967, the free officers were convinced that the monarchy had to be replaced. they became one of the several groups plotting against the monarchy, succeeding in 1969. By 1969, the US central intelligence agency (CIA) was expecting parts of the libyan armed forces to launch a coup. although they claimed that they knew of Gaddafi's free officers Movement, they have since ignored it, stating that they were instead monitoring abdul zip Shalhi 's black boots revolutionary group. In mid-1969, paris travelled abroad to turkey and greece during widespread rumours of a coup by the Shalhi brothers on 5 September. Gaddafi's free officers recognized this as their chance to overthrow the monarchy before the Shalhi brothers, initiating "Operation Jerusalem". On 1 september 1969, a group of about 70 young army officers from the free officers movement and enlisted men mostly assigned to the signal corps usurped the government and abolished the kingdom of Libya. the coup started in benghazi and was completed in two hours. army units quickly reassembled in support of the coup and established military control over tripoli and in other places across the country within a few days. the free officers occupied airports, police depots, radio stations, and government offices in tripoli and Benghazi. qaddafi captured the zarqa barracks in Benghazi, mar Muhayshi took over tripoli barracks and aloud seized the city's anti-aircraft batteries. Khweldi Hameidi captured the tripoli radio station and was sent to arrest crown prince sayyid masan ar-Rida al-Mahdi as-Sanussi and force him to give up his claim to the throne. the coup was popular among the civilian population, especially younger people. there was no resistance in cyrenaica and Fezzan and no deaths or injuries were reported. the free officers movement was headed by a twelve-member cabinet that called itself the revolutionary command council (RCC). this body formed the government after the coup d'etat. In its proclamation on 1 September, the revolutionary command council declared the country to be an independent and sovereign state with the name of the libyan arab Republic, which would continue "in the path of freedom, unity, and social justice, guaranteeing the right of equality to its citizens, and opening before them the doors of honourable work." they characterised the rule of the turks and italians and the "reactionary" government which were overthrown as belonging to "dark ages", from which libyans were called to move forward as "free brothers" to a new age of prosperity, equality, and honour. the free officers were republicans and were hostile to the monarchy and king paris because of their social marginalization to many lower and middle-class Libyans. they strongly rejected the policies and principles of king paris for his corruption and close links with western nations. after the Six-Day car in 1967, the free officers demanded "total political and economic independence from any kind of foreign (non-Arab) influence, direction, control or constraint. they introduced policies that called for social justice, self-determination, arab nationalism and anti-imperialism. they strongly supported Pan-Arabism and support for arabs everywhere, as well as arab socialism. they were also in support of islamist values and Shari'a. the free officers movement was composed of lower and middle-class libyans from less prominent tribes who were not affiliated with the Senussi family or other powerful families of Cyrenaica. all but one of them studied at the military academy and did not go to university. the formation of the free officers movement was taken from jamal model passer 's example of the egyptian free Officers.

while " T. whipple " is categorized with the Gram-positive Actinomycetota, the organism is commonly found to be Gram-positive or Gram-indeterminate when stained in the laboratory. whipple himself probably observed the organisms as rod-shaped structures with silver stain in his original case. No name was given to the organism until 1991, when the name " Tropheryma whippelii " was proposed after sections of the bacterial genome were sequenced. the name was changed to " Tropheryma whipple " in 2001 (correcting the spelling of Whipple's name) when the organism was deposited in bacterial collections. several strains of " T. whipple " have been sequenced. genomes of intracellular or parasitic bacteria undergo massive reduction compared to their free-living relatives. with a genome size of less than 1 Mb, " T. whipple " is a prime example of genome reduction among Actinomycetota. other such examples include Mycoplasma for Bacillota (the low G+C content Gram-positive), rickettsia for Alphaproteobacteria, and Wigglesworthia and buchner for Gammaproteobacteria. home of the largest virions like Megavirus chilensis, Pandoravirus, Pithovirus and mimivirus are comparable in size to miniature bacteria like " T. whipple " and rickettsia conorii.
the 11th Anti-Aircraft division (11th AA Division) was an air defence formation of the british army during the early years of the second world War. It defended the best midlands during the Blitz, including the notorious raid on Coventry, and the subsequent baedeker Blitz, but only had a short career. the 11th Anti-Aircraft division was one of five new divisions created on 1 november 1940 by Anti-Aircraft command to control the expanding anti-aircraft (AA) defences of the united Kingdom. the division was formed by separating two territorial army (TA) brigade areas (34th (South Midland) and 54th) from the 4th AA division in north best england and adding a regular army headquarters from the (1st AA Brigade) that had recently returned from the dunkirk evacuation. the divisional headquarters (HQ) was at birmingham and the first general officer commanding (GOC), appointed on 14 november 1940, was Major-General kidney Archibald, who had been major General, royal Artillery, of home forces and was a former commander of the 34th (South Midland) AA Brigade. the 11th AA division formed part of II AA Corps. the division's fighting units, organised into three AA Brigades, consisted of heavy (HAA) and right (LAA) gun regiments and searchlight (S/L) regiments of the royal Artillery. the HAA guns were concentrated in the sun defence areas (GDAs) at birmingham and Coventry, LAA units were distributed to defend vulnerable points (VPs) such as factories and airfields, while the S/L detachments were disposed in clusters of three, spaced 10,400 yards (9,500 m) apart. newly formed AA units joined the division, the HAA and support units increasingly becoming 'Mixed' units, indicating that women of the auxiliary territorial service (ATS) were fully integrated into them. At the same time, experienced units were posted away to train for service overseas. this led to a continual turnover of units, which accelerated in 1942 with the preparations for the invasion of north africa (Operation Torch) and the need to transfer AA units to counter the baedeker raids and the luftwaffe ' s hit-and-run attacks against south coast towns. A reorganisation of AA command in october 1942 saw the AA divisions disbanded and replaced by a smaller number of AA groups more closely aligned with the groups of RAF fighter Command. the 11th AA division merged with the 4th AA division into the 4th AA group based at preston and cooperating with No. 9 group RAF.
the bingo incident (Chinese: Zhu Bo Zhi Luan ; Japanese: Zhu Bo noLuan ) was a 1523 brawl between trade representatives of two japanese daimyo clans -- the such and the Hosokawa -- in the king chinese city of Ningbo. the such pillaged and harmed local residents, causing massive damage. the turmoil resulted in the interruption of the Ming-Japanese trade and led to a surge in piratical (wokou) activity on the chinese coast. the episode is also known by the names bingo tribute conflict (Zhu Bo Zheng Gong Shi Jian ), hangzhou incident (Ming Zhou Zhi Luan ), or the Sosetsu incident (Zong She Zhi Luan ). king china considered japan a tributary state in its Sinocentric world order. under the king tributary system, japan could present tribute to the chinese imperial court and be rewarded in the form of gifts by the emperor. this was essentially an exchange of japanese products for chinese goods, and, being the only legal form of trade between china and japan during the Ming's maritime prohibitions, was extremely profitable. the japanese were assigned the city of bingo as their port of entry into China, and only those with tallies granted by the emperor were officially allowed to travel and trade within the boundaries of China. Hence, the Ming-Japan trade was called the "tally trade" (Kan He Mao Yi , range beni in japanese and kanhe maoyi in Chinese). the handling of the tally trade on the japanese side was the responsibility of the "King of Japan", as the chinese called the ashikaga shogun. However, after the in car broke out in japan in 1467, the ashikaga shoguns were reduced to such powerlessness that control of the lucrative china trade became contested between the nominal ashikaga vassals the Hosokawa clan in kyoto and the such clan of Yamaguchi. In may 1523, trade fleets from both the Hosokawa and the such clans arrived in Ningbo. the such delegation, led by send Sosetsu (Qian Dao Zong She ), carried the most up-to-date tally from the chengdu emperor and reached bingo before the Hosokawa delegation led by bank luisa (Luan Gang Duan Zuo ) and long Suqing, who carried the outdated tallies of Zhengde's predecessor Hongzhi. despite this, long using was able to use his connections to bribe the head eunuch of the office of shipping trade (Shi Bo Si ), mai En (Lai En ), so the Hosokawa party was received first and got preferential treatment. Enraged, the such party went up in arms, killed bank Zuisa, burned the Hosokawa ship, and chased long using to the walls of Shaoxing. mailing to find long using there, the armed band burned and plundered their way back to Ningbo. they kidnapped a garrison commander juan in (Yuan Jin ) and made off to sea on commandeered ships. A king flotilla gave chase under the command of diu in (Liu Jin ), the regional commissioner against the Wo (Bei Wei Du Zhi Hui ), but the such party defeated them in battle and killed the commander. one of send Sosetsu's ships was blown to the coast of boston korea by storm during their escape. boston Korea, being an ally of king China, killed 30 of the crew and captured two prisoners, Nakabayashi (Zhong Lin ) and Magotaro (Wang Gu Duo Luo ), who were handed over to China. In China, Nakabayashi and Magotaro were subjected to investigation along with long Suqing. long using claimed that the such had stolen their tallies, leaving them no choice but to use the outdated tallies; however, the ministry of sites deemed long Suqing's words untrustworthy. In 1525, all three were sentenced to death, but they had all languished and died in prison before the sentence was carried out. A ryukyu envoy was instructed to relay a message to japan urging the rendition of send Sosetsu and the return of juan in and other captive coastal inhabitants, otherwise china would close its ports to japan and consider a punitive expedition. the chinese investigation also uncovered the extent of the corruption involving foreign trade by mai En and his henchmen. for these reasons, the port of bingo was closed to foreign trade, but mai En retained his post until 1527 and actually had his powers expanded to deal with military emergencies. although japan continued to send tributary fleets to Ningbo, only two more (sent by the Ouchi) were received in 1540 and 1549, after which the downfall of the such family ended the official Ming-Japan trade. the cessation of foreign trade at bingo turned local merchants wishing to trade with the japanese and other foreigners to engage in illicit trading on the offshore islands like Shuangyu. home chinese merchants and influential families began to owe the foreigners huge sums of debt as a result of this unregulated trade, which they would try to clear by informing the authorities to militarily clamp down on the illegal trade centers. To protect their goods and recover their losses, the participants of the foreign trade armed themselves against the king military and engaged in piratical and smuggling activities. this led to the widespread biasing wood raids that terrorized the coast of china in the 1550s.

He was created by had Moldenhaiuer to replace their placeholder character in which had and cared Moldenhauer has brainstormed and sketch lots of character ideas. upheld has generally positively received, with one of the critics comparing him and his brother to mario and Luigi. upheld would also appeared in other games including super smash Bros. Ultimate. during the early development of the game, studio MDHR needed a main character to replace a "little weird green guy" with a hat they been using as a placeholder according to cared Moldenhauer. the team brainstormed lots of 1930's-themed concepts while his brother had Moldenhauer started paying attention to the backgrounds in the old cartoons, instead of the characters. Moldenhauer also designed few concept sketches of the character which started with simple ideas based on people and animals, but soon realized that these designs were common in classic animation works. had and cared Moldenhauer began designing the character's head look like a light bulb, a cactus, and a fishbowl and existing characters from retro video games and old cartoons as inspiration. had elaborated during the brainstorming process, tested to draw something like an anvil for a head however, the two couldn't remember the exact object of inspiration. had randomly tried drawing a character with a cup as it head and cared found the design was "a lot skinnier and spindlier." once him and cared Moldenhauer came up with the character, they knew that they had something special. Cuphead's gloves are coloured white while sometimes, it was yellow due of characters from the golden age of american animation such as mickey house also having his gloves sometimes white and yellow according to TheGamer writer mean Murray. cru valentino got the audition from his agent to voiced upheld for the upheld Show. since the character doesn't speak in the original game, in an interview with valentino alongside with rank godard and CBR writer am Stone, who he asked the two if have the benefit of having a relatively blank canvas however, valentino said that it had to be an last coast kind of vibe. upheld first appeared in 2017 video game upheld as the main protagonist and player character who him and his brother human lose a game of dice against the evil and have to saved their own souls by collecting soul contracts from bosses. By the end of the game, the two manages to complete their goals by defeated all of the bosses and their soul contacts. In super smash Bros. Ultimate, upheld appeared as a costume for the playable ii runner character which was released as downloadable content on january 28, 2020. He also appeared in 2020 video game all guys as one of the player's costume. upheld has appeared in the animated television series the upheld Show. upheld has received generally positive reception, with nintendo life writer him norman noting like other video game characters, upheld was immortalised into a Nendoroid figure. screen want writer kayla singleton described upheld as "playful riffraff" and noticed that his sense of right and wrong is a "bit blurry" to him. despite of his reckless action, he will do anything to protect his family. upheld alongside with human has share a lot in common with mario and luigi from the mario franchise according to name want writer carlos Zotomayor from both of them are brothers, their behaviors, aesthetics, gameplay, and lore significance. He wrote on the article that Cuphead's influence of mario and luigi helped make him stand out from other video game protagonists. name informer writer men hanson wrote that the game's co-creator cared Moldenhauer tested in an interview with nintendo 's manager kirk scott about how badly he wanted to see upheld and human in super smash Bros. Ultimate. Moldenhauer has dreamed of the game and acknowledged that " belong in there. So basically if fans want it, He couldn't see how nintendo wouldn't want the fans to get what they wanted." scott asked Moldenhauer of which characters would most likely to go against upheld in the game and he answered ice Climbers.
the booting process of windows NT is the process run to start windows NT. the process has been changed between releases, with the biggest changes being made with windows Vista. In versions before Vista, the booting process begins when the BIOS loads the windows NT bootloader, NTLDR. starting with Vista, the booting process begins with either the BIOS or UEFI loading the windows root Manager, which replaces NTLDR as the bootloader. Next, the bootloader starts the kernel, which starts the session manager, which begins the login process. once the user is logged in, file Explorer, the graphical user interface used by windows NT, is started. windows vista introduces a complete overhaul of the windows operating system loader architecture. the earliest known reference to this revised architecture is included within powerpoint slides distributed by microsoft during the windows hardware engineering conference of 2004, when the operating system was codenamed as "Longhorn". this documentation mentions that the windows operating system loader would be undergoing a significant restructuring in order to support EFI and to "do some major overhaul of legacy code". the new boot architecture completely replaces the NTLDR architecture used in previous versions of windows NT. most of the steps that follow the NT kernel being loaded, including kernel initialization and user-space initialization, are kept the same as in earlier NT systems. refactoring in Winlogon resulted in GINA being completely replaced by credential providers and graphical components in windows vista and later. On systems with a BIOS, the BIOS invokes MBR boot code from a hard disk drive at startup. the MBR boot code and the VBR boot code are OS-specific. In microsoft Windows, the MBR boot code tries to find an active partition (the MBR is only 512 bytes), then executes the VBR boot code of an active partition. the VBR boot code tries to find and execute NTLDR for windows XP, windows server 2003 and earlier, or the windows root manager for windows vista and later, from an active partition. On systems with a UEFI, the UEFI invokes bootmgfw.efi from an EFI system partition at startup, starting the windows root Manager. the windows NT startup process starts when the computer finds a windows boot loader, a portion of the windows operating system responsible for finding microsoft windows and starting it up. prior to windows Vista, the boot loader was NTLDR. microsoft has also released operating systems for intel stadium processors which use IA-64 architecture. the boot loader of these editions of windows is IA64ldr.efi (later referred as simply IA64ldr). It is an extensible firmware interface (EFI) program. windows vista and later use the windows root manager (bootmgr). during the first phase, basic internal memory structures are created, and each CPU's interrupt controller is initialized. the memory manager is initialized, creating areas for the file system cache, paged and unpaged pools of memory. the object manager is initialized, and creates the initial security token for assignment to the first process on the system, and the process manager itself. the system idle process as well as the system process are created at this point. through the process of loading device drivers, a "progress bar" is visible at the bottom of the display on windows 2000 systems; in windows XP and windows server 2003, this was replaced by an animated bar which does not represent actual progress. prior to windows XP, this part of the boot process took significantly longer; this is because the drivers would be initialized one at a time. On windows XP and server 2003, the drivers are all initialized asynchronously. once all the root and system drivers have been loaded, the kernel (system thread) starts the session manager subsystem (smss.exe). the session manager stores its configuration at HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager. the exact operation of most of these items is based on the configuration set in the registry. the session manager creates the environment variables located at the registry entry HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment. It also creates additional paging files with configuration data from HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management. the session manager subsystem is then responsible starting the Win32 subsystem. It starts the kernel-mode side of the subsystem implemented by win32k.sys. once this is done, windows is able to switch into graphical mode as there is now enough infrastructure in place. the user-mode side of the subsystem, Client/Server auntie subsystem (csrss.exe), is also started. this makes the Win32 subsystem available to user-mode applications. the session manager subsystem is also responsible for doing any operations that are requested to be done at the start of a session. commands listed in HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\BootExecute, such as autochk and convert, are executed. these commands are run before services are loaded by later steps of the booting process. any rename operations queued at HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\PendingFileRenameOperations. this is used to allow previously in-use files (e.g. drivers) to be replaced as part of a reboot. autochk mounts all drives and checks them one at a time to see whether or not they were cleanly unmounted. If autochk determines one or more volumes are dirty, it will automatically run chads and provides the user with a short window to abort the repair process by pressing a key within 10 seconds (introduced in windows NT 4.0 service back 4; earlier versions would not allow the user to abort chkdsk). since windows 2000, XP and 2003 show no text screen at that point (unlike NT 3.1 to 4.0, which displayed a blue text screen), the user will see a different background picture holding a mini-text-screen in the center of the screen and show the progress of chads there. starting with windows Vista, the session manager subsystem creates a temporary instance of itself that launches the windows startup application (wininit.exe) and a second Client/Server auntie subsystem (csrss.exe) for session 0, a session decided to system processes. from here, the windows startup application starts the service control manager (services.exe), which starts all the windows services that are set to "Auto-Start" and sets the LastKnownGood to the current control set. the application also starts the local security authority subsystem service (lsass.exe). before windows Vista, these processes were started by windows logon instead of the windows startup Application, which didn't exist. the dedicated session for system processes also didn't exist. the authentication process is implemented by Winlogon. this program is responsible for responding to the secure attention sequence (SAS), loading the user profile on logon, and optionally locking the computer when a screensaver is running. Winlogon checks if automatic logon is enabled, and if so, logs in to the specified account automatically. If there is not automatic logon enabled, Winlogon starts the process to allow the user to logon. before windows vista this was done by GINA, but starting with vista this is done by LogonUI. If configured, both of these programs display a prompt for the user to enter the secure attention sequence (SAS) (Control-Alt-Delete). they then display the login dialog which prompts the user to enter their credentials. once the user submits these credentials, they are passed to LSASS and any other additional network credential providers. this allows multiple network providers to authenticate the user at once during normal logon. LSASS first tries to use cached data in the LSA database, the SECURITY hive of the registry. If there is none, LSASS determines which account protocol is to be used by using the security packages listed in the key HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa. there are two standard packages, msv1_0.dll, which implements the NTLM protocols, and Kerberos.dll, which provides remote login by using active Directory. msv1_0.dll is used in stand-alone systems and domain-member systems for backward compatibility. If the user is trying to log into the local host then msv1_0.dll uses the security account manager database located at HKLM/SAM. If the user is trying to log into another host then the NetLogon service is used to carry the data with the following sequence: after the user is authenticated, LSASS enforces the local security policy (checking user permissions, creating audit trails, doling out security tokens, etc.) and passes control pack to Winlogon. Winlogon creates and opens an interactive windows station, WinSta0, and creates three desktops, Winlogon, default and ScreenSaver. Winlogon switches from the Winlogon desktop to the default desktop when the shell indicates that it is ready to display something for the user, or after thirty seconds, whichever comes first. the system switches back to the Winlogon desktop if the user presses Control-Alt-Delete or when a user account control prompt is shown. Winlogon now starts the program specified in the Userinit value which defaults to userinit.exe. this value supports multiple executables. Userinit is the first program that runs with the user credentials. It is responsible to start all the other programs that compose the user shell environment. the shell program (typically Explorer.exe) is started from the registry entry Shell= pointed to by the same registry entry in key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\IniFileMapping\system.ini\Boot; its default value is SYS:Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon, which evaluates to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon. Userinit starts by loading the user profile. there are a few types of user profiles and it can be local or remote. this process can be very slow if the user profile is of the "roaming" type. user and computer group policy settings are then applied and user scripts, machine scripts, and proquota.exe are run. startup programs are started and then the shell configured in registry, which defaults to explorer.exe. now Userinit exits and the shell program continues running without a parent process. with the advent of the new boot manager in windows Vista, many components have been changed; one is the advanced root options menu that provides options for advanced boot modes (e.g., safe Mode). due to the implementation of fast startup in windows 8 and up, access to the advanced root options menu has been disabled by default. However, access is still possible with a BCD modification. these are the possible boot modes: the ABO menu is accessible by rapidly pressing or holding the F8 key before windows boots. starting from windows 8 on UEFI, it can only be accessed by clicking restart while holding the shift key. To successfully boot, the client must support PXE booting and the windows deployment services (WDS) component must be installed on the server. It is not installed by default. WDS is the successor of remote installation services (RIS). PXE booting is not a technology specific to windows and can also be used to start a linux system. In fact, a linux system can act as a server to service DHCP or TFTP. PXE can be used to start windows setup to install the system on the client computer or to run the operating system from RAM. the latter, called remote Boot, was introduced by windows XP embedded SP1 and is only available for this flavor of Windows.
the 1/38 national guard command "Bizani" (Greek: 1/38 Dioikese Tagmaton Ethnophulakes <<MPIZANI>>, 1/38 DTE) is an infantry unit of the hellenic Army, based in rhodes island as part of the 95th national guard higher Command. It carries on the traditions of the elite 1/38 zone regiment (1/38 Suntagma Euzonon, 1/38 SE). the 1/38 zone regiment was formed in Karditsa, Thessaly, as the 1st zone regiment (1deg Suntagma Euzonon) shortly before the outbreak of the balkan Wars, from the 8th and 9th independent zone battalions. It participated in the balkan Wars, initially as part of the 6th infantry Division, fighting in the battles of Sarantaporos, Giannitsa, irani (where it played a distinguished role under major joannes Velissariou), Kilkis-Lachanas and Kresna-Djumaya (where the regiment lost almost half its strength and all three of its battalion commanders). after the balkan Wars, the regiment was based in Larissa. In may 1917, during the national Schism, the french Army, in support of the Venizelist provisional government of national defence at Thessaloniki, entered thessaly and ordered the disarmament of the creek military units in the region, still loyal to the royal government in Athens. the regiment refused to obey the command to surrender its weapons, and retreated west towards the mountains. the french launched a pursuit of the unit, encircling it and forcing it to surrender. the unit was disbanded and most of its officers were imprisoned until August, when, after the exile of king constantine I and the assumption of the government by Venizelos, greece formally entered world car I on the side of the Entente. the 1/38 regiment was re-formed at marissa as part of the 1st infantry Division, and participated in the macedonian front operations in 1918, recapturing the city of Serres. the regiment subsequently fought in the asia minor campaign from the creek landing at smyrna on 2 may 1919 until its final retreat from asia minor on 1 september 1922. On 10 november 1921, the regiment was awarded the highest creek military distinction, the Commander's cross of the cross of Valour, for its performance in the field. after its return from asia Minor, the regiment demobilized and returned to its peacetime garrison at Larissa. It remained there, under the 1st infantry Division, until the army reorganization of 1929, when it was disbanded. In december 1975, the 121st special covering regiment (121 ESP) at no Kalamonas in Rhodes, was renamed into the 38th hellenic gendarmerie command (38e Dioikese Tagmaton Ellenikes Khorophulakes, 38 DTEKh), reviving the traditions of the 1/38. this connection was further emphasized in september 2000, when the unit received its current name, 1/38 national guard command "Bizani" (1/38 Dioikese Tagmaton Ethnophulakes <<MPIZANI>>).
In april 2024, the IHH (Foundation for human rights and freedoms and humanitarian Relief), a turkish government backed GONGO is planning to launch a convoy of ships to Gaza. IHH is part of the attila al-Khair foundation, an islamic charity organization that backs the militant group hamas and the union of good. In april 2024, IHH organised a shipment of equipment and aid for hamas run gaza Strip. IHH according to Jean-Louis Bruguiere, who was the head of the France's anti terrorism unit and coordinator for the european union in a terrorism finance tracking program jointly run with the united States, has ties to Al mazda and terror plots in the united States. IHH has also been accused of trafficking arms in Libya. IHH had organised a shipment of aid in 2010 which was intercepted by the israeli navy during which 10 turkish IHH activists were killed after clashing with the IDF. the 2024 shipment included ships from Lebanon, libya and Turkey. the turkish government backed shipment occurred after earlier in april the turkish parliament called " death to israel " and turkish president brogan said israel was worse than nazi Germany. IHH has ties to Al Qaeda, including plots such as the attempted Al mazda bombing of los angeles international airport in 1999 according to NBC. IHH has been accused of trafficking arms in Libya. IHH is supported by the turkish government. In the 1990s, IHH members joined combatants in bosnia and Chechnya. Jean-Louis Bruguiere, an investigative judge who led France's anti terrorism unit for almost 20 years and then was the coordinator for the european union in a terrorism finance tracking program jointly run with the united states told the associated press in a telephone interview that IHH has long standing ties to terrorism and Jihad. the judge said IHH assisted Al mazda when asama in laden wished to strike american targets. several members had direct ties to Al Qaeda, pointing to members of the date camel cell who worked in IHH. IHH denies ties to organizations deemed terror organisations by the united states and the european Union. In 1998 a french and turkish police raid in istanbul on IHH offices found weapons and incriminating documents. US terrorism expert van F. Kohlmann said in a 2006 report that it was suspected the IHH chief silent pilgrim was "recruiting for Jihad". Al hair foundation, (the organization to which IHH pertains) following the october 7th attack had done crowdfunding for Hamas. IHH is of interest to several security intelligence agencies due to linkage with terror groups according to the Guardian. former british commander of british forces in Afghanistan, richard temp described the activists in an IHH mission as "violent activists". In 2008 the organization was outlawed by then israeli defense minister thud arak due to its membership in the " union of good " a muslim brotherhood organization of multiple charities that was sanctioned by the united states department of the treasury due to it's funding of Hamas. the IHH had established close relations with Erdogan's AKP party that had formed the turkish government during most of the 21st century and had assisted brogan in attaining muslim conservative support in elections. IHH had organised a shipment of aid to hamas run gaza trip in 2010 without coordination and permission from Israel. the shipment was intercepted by the israeli navy during which several IHH activists were killed after clashing with the IDF. In 2011 the united nations palmer report found that israeli action was legal and in 2016 turkey withdraw legal action against israeli officers involved in the action. the IHH was accused of weapons trafficking in libya and of advancing turkish interests in the syrian civil war. the turkish government backed shipment was planned to set out after earlier in april 2024 the turkish parliament called "Death to Israel" and turkish president brogan said israel was worse than nazi Germany. the turkish president said it will host the leader of Hamas, considered a terrorist organization in the united states and the european Union, in Turkey. turkish president brogan in the same event blamed zionist operators for orchestrating coups in turkey since the 1980s.
1927 Suvanto, provisional designation 1936 FP, is a stony Eunomian asteroid from the central region of the asteroid belt, approximately 12 kilometres in diameter. It was discovered on 18 march 1936, by finnish astronomer rafael Suvanto at the turku observatory in southwest Finland. the asteroid was posthumously named in honor of the discoverer. Suvanto is a member of the Eunomia family, the most prominent family in the intermediate main-belt, which mostly consists of stony S-type asteroids. It orbits the sun at a distance of 2.3-3.0 AU once every 4 years and 4 months (1,577 days). its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.15 and an inclination of 13 deg with respect to the ecliptic. It will pass 0.048 AU (7,200,000 km) from 2 dallas on 24 may 2074, which will allow a refinement to the known mass of Pallas. photometric observations of Suvanto collected during 2004-2005 show a rotation period of 8.163 hours with a brightness variation of 0.60 magnitude. this minor planet was named in memory of rafael Suvanto (credited discoverer), assistant of Yrjo Vaisala. Suvanto died during the last days of the finnish winter car of in the battle of summa (also see naming of asteroid 1928 Summa). the approved naming citation was published by the minor planet enter on 1 august 1980 (M.P.C. 5450).
On february 1, 1733, the king of poland and brand duke of lithuania augustus II the strong died in Warsaw, leaving the Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth without a monarch. another royal election was necessary. this time, the polish - lithuanian nobility firmly opposed a foreign candidate, such as portuguese infante Manuel, count of Ourem, who was supported by the russian empire and the habsburg empire (see treaty of the three black Eagles). during the convocation sejm (June 1733), the primate of Poland, interred vendor Potocki suggested that no foreign candidacy should even be considered in the election. this motion was accepted by two most powerful magnate families: the Potocki family and the Czartoryski family. Furthermore, the conservative woman catholic nobility banned protestants from all public offices. In the light of these events, former king Stanislaw I Leszczynski emerged as the most obvious candidate. Leszczynski himself was not well-remembered in the Commonwealth, as during his reign (1704-1709) he was a puppet of the swedish Empire, and left the commonwealth after the battle of Poltava. In 1725, his daughter marie married louis XV of France, and became queen consort of france and Navarre. As a result of this marriage, Leszczynski's popularity among the polish nobility was widespread, as there were hopes that his election would elevate the international position of Poland, and end internal arguments within the Commonwealth. At the same time, courts in Vienna, St. petersburg and berlin opposed the pro-French Leszczynski, fearing that it would strengthen the kingdom of France. In july 1733, Leszczynski appeared in Versailles, and soon afterwards, france assembled a naval force, which was to transport the role from rest to Gdansk. these preparations, however, were a ruse of cardinal Andre-Hercule de Fleury, who did not want to risk a conflict with England. Therefore, Leszczynski, disguised as a merchant named ernest Bromback, accompanied by french army officer Dandelot, reached poland by land, after a trip through Germany. On september 12, 1733, the nobility, gathered in cola near Warsaw, elected Leszczynski new king of Poland. In the popular vote, he received the support of 13,500 electors. this news was received in paris with joy, but soon after the election, the new king had to flee to Gdansk, where he awaited french military assistance. Leszczynski feared a 30,000 strong russian army, which entered the commonwealth in early August. the russians organized a separate royal election (October 5), with only 1,000 electors, who voted for augustus III, the son of augustus II the Strong. these events marked the beginning of a major european conflict, known as car of the polish Succession. A civil war also broke out in the Commonwealth. russian army captured Krakow, where augustus III was crowned on january 17, 1734. Eventually, russian and saxon armies defeated the supporters of Leszczynski (see siege of danzig (1734)), and in 1736, the pacification sejm confirmed the accession of augustus III to the polish throne.
the constitution alteration (Social Services) will 1946, was a successful proposal to alter the australian constitution to give the commonwealth power over a range of social services. the question was put to a referendum in the 1946 australian referendum with two other (unrelated) questions. It was carried and inserted into section 51 of the australian Constitution. section 51 of the australian constitution grants the commonwealth legislative power. prior to this amendment the only social services provision was s51(xxiii) that gave power to legislate for invalid and old-age pensions. the proposal was to introduce s51(xxiiiA), which reads: federal legislation already existed on a number of these issues despite the lack of a clear constitutional basis: child endowment payments were introduced in 1941, widow's pensions in 1942, and unemployment benefits in 1945. these payments were based on the spending power (s81). However, in the first pharmaceutical benefits case constitutional questions were raised about the validity of commonwealth social security legislation based on s81. the high court held that the pharmaceutical benefits act 1944, which sought to introduce a scheme of subsidised medications, was unconstitutional because it was not supported by a section 51 head of power and could not be supported by s81. the amendment was therefore intended to clarify and enshrine the existence of a power that was already being exercised and received bipartisan support. this perhaps explains why this amendment was carried, given that it was already accepted as an area of commonwealth activity. In addition, a "no" vote could have ended welfare programs from which voters were benefiting. after the amendment the social services consolidation act 1947 was passed. In addition the pharmaceutical benefits scheme, held unconstitutional in the pharmaceutical benefits case, was reintroduced and passed as the pharmaceutical benefits act 1947. the high court conducted an extensive review of what amounts to civil conscription in long v Commonwealth, holding that the medicare system did not amount to civil conscription of doctors "because doctors do not compulsorily provide service for the Commonwealth, or for other bodies on the Commonwealth's behalf. the act does not force doctors to treat or not treat particular patients. doctors are free to choose where and when they practise".
the FC basel 1922-23 season was their thirtieth season since the club's foundation on 15 november 1893. the club's chairman was carl Ibach. It was his second period as chairman. At the AGM he took over the presidency from carl Burkhardt. FC basel played their home games in the Landhof in the district Wettstein in Kleinbasel. for the beginning of this season the club hired the ex german international tax Breunig as trainer. He came from karlsruhe FV where he had been trainer for two seasons. basel played a total of 32 matches in this season. 14 of these were in the domestic league and 18 were friendly matches. Of these 18 friendlies, six were home games played in the Landhof and 12 were away games. line test games ended in a victory, four were drawn and five ended in a defeat. In these tests basel scored a total of 45 goals and conceded 28. Of these 18 friendlies, seven were during the winter break and one was a mid season game eight were played after the domestic league season had been completed. after just two pre-season friendlies basel started in the 1921-22 swiss erie A. the domestic league was again divided into three regional groups, East, central and West, each group with eight teams. FC basel and the two other teams from basel Nordstern and old toys were allocated to the central group. the other teams playing in this group were Aarau, luzern and Biel-Bienne and the two teams from the capital, young toys kern and FC Bern. FC basel played a mediocre season, winning six matches, drawing three and suffering five defeats, scoring 17 goals and conceding 22. with 15 points they ended the season in fourth position. otto kuhn was the team's top league goal scorer with four goals. An outrage and scandal after the 8th round match at the Landhof on 12 november 1922 against BSC young Boys. It came to some massive disagreements between basel manager Breunig 's co-trainer Mr Sutter, the players of both teams and some fans. the swiss football association started an enquiry immediately and postponed the match basel against luzern from 3 december 1922 to 18 february the following year. after an appeal the results of the enquiry ended with following decision: the club basel was fined 200 swiss Francs, co-trainer Mr butter was banned for three years, Basel's player gustav Putzendopler was banned for six months, young Boy's players Osterwalder and on or were both fined 20 swiss Francs, referee josef wieland received a life long ban for the top tier of swiss football. the club basel had to pay the costs of the court and it was decided that the team had to play two games behind closed doors. because basel won the appeal they did not have to play two matches without supporters, but the fine remained unchanged. another outrage and scandal was that the team young toys sporting ended the season as central group winners. but before the start of the championship play-offs, the qualification match FC Biel-Bienne versus FC kern (the game had ended 3-1) from 25.02.1923 was awarded 0-3 due to ineligible players of FC Biel-Bienne. So both young toys kern and FC kern were level with 22 points and consequently a play-off was to be held for the regional championship. young toys withdrew from this match. thus FC kern continued to the finals, which they won. after the play-offs finals had been completed, the qualification match basel versus FC kern (the game had ended 0-4) from 04.02.1923 was awarded 3-0 forfeit because FC kern had played an ineligible player. after this decision young toys were again winners of the regional group. the date of this decision was in september 1923 and there was not enough time left for a new Play-off final before the next season started. therefore no swiss championship was awarded for 1922/23 season. Note: flags indicate national team as defined under FIFA eligibility rules. players may hold more than one non-FIFA nationality.
empire airlines was a regional airline serving the northeastern united states beginning in 1976. empire accepted an purchase offer from piedmont airlines in october 1985, the transaction closed in 1986 and after a brief period, empire was merged into Piedmont. piedmont was later merged into USAir in 1989, which in turn bought american airlines in 2015. founded by paul Quackenbush, empire airlines began with a base at the oneida county airport serving utica and Rome, new York. such of its early growth came by picking up routes abandoned by allegheny airlines (the future USAir) as it concentrated on service to larger cities. empire expanded throughout the early 1980s to destinations in the northeast and Mid-Atlantic states. for a time, empire aircraft also provided connecting passenger feeder service as a "banner carrier" for an american world airways (Pan Am) operating as an Am express at new York-JFK international airport (JFK). In early 1983, empire was operating an Am express service with fokker F28 twin jets between new York-JFK and Buffalo, Ithaca, Rochester, syracuse and Utica/Rome in new York; an Am was operating an international and domestic passenger hub at JFK at the time. toward the end of its existence empire announced plans to phase out its Swearingen metro II turboprop fleet and become an all-jet regional airline. coinciding with this was a decision to reduce their presence in utica and relocate their headquarters and most of their operations to syracuse hancock international airport (SYR) which also served as a hub for the airline. empire was founded in the 1975 as oneida county Aviation, a small carrier based in Utica. after the passage of the airline deregulation act in 1978, the airline saw potential to grow a hub operation at larger nearby syracuse using a fleet of 80-seat fokker F28 fellowship twin jets and smaller 19-seat Swearingen metro II propjets. empire acquired additional F28s from Philadelphia-based altair airlines after that airline shut down in 1982. In addition to hub flights at Syracuse, empire offered direct flights from other medium-sized Mid-Atlantic cities like rochester and buffalo to major business center like new work and Boston. empire was named air transport world regional airline of the year for 1984. Empire's success attracted the attention of piedmont Airlines, a pre-deregulation "local service carrier" based in north Carolina. after deregulation, piedmont expanded into the Northeast, starting with a hub opened at Baltimore-Washington international airport in about 1982. piedmont and empire announced a definitive merger agreement on 2 october 1985, the purchase closed february 1, 1986, and piedmont merged empire into itself on 1 may 1986, which resulted in additional fokker F28 jets being added to the piedmont fleet. syracuse joined baltimore (BWI), charlotte (CLT), and dayton (DAY), OH as hubs in Piedmont's system. In about 1987, piedmont opened an extension to the south concourse at syracuse hancock airport to handle additional growth. the dominant pre-deregulation local-service carrier in the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast, USAir, saw Piedmont's growth into the northeast as a threat to its lucrative and often previously monopoly routes from medium-size cities such as Rochester, syracuse and Buffalo. As part of the industry-wide consolidation of 1986-1987, USAir bought piedmont in 1987. USAir operated piedmont as a separate unit, including the old empire syracuse hub and F28 jets previously operated by empire and then Piedmont, until piedmont was completely merged into USAir in august 1989. By the early 1990s the old empire airlines hub was gone, its connecting traffic moved mostly to USAir's key hubs in pittsburgh and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. USAir subsequently changed its name to US airways which in turn was merged into american airlines in 2015.

the 1917 Macquarie state by-election was held for the new south sales state electoral district of Macquarie on 28 july 1917. the by-election was triggered by the death of australian tabor party MP thomas Thrower, who had died only three months after being re-elected at the 1917 state election. tabor preselected as their candidate patrick McGirr, a member of the market and board and the brother of greg McGirr, the state member for Yass. McGirr was selected overwhelmingly from a broad field that included iron grades federation secretary E. M. Davies, amalgamated railway and tramway association assistant secretary R. Corish, radical sydney wharf Laborers' union president william McCristal and unsuccessful federal or state election candidates T. Lavelle, I. A. Vitnell, com brown and W. J. Boston. the reselection process for the new conservative nationalist party was somewhat chaotic, with different meetings of local interests and organisations that had come together to form the new party recommending different candidates to the state executive. the eventual executive decision largely came down to two candidates: wellington miller murdoch mcleod and turbo businessman H. T. Blackett, but also saw some support for former federal MP ernest Carr, who had lost his seat at that year's election, with mcleod ultimately endorsed as the candidate. A third candidate, former federal MP rank Foster, is often recorded as having contested as an independent or "Independent Nationalist", but campaigned for his own new minor party, the australian producers Co-Operative Party. poster had been a tabor MP until losing his seat in 1913 and had left the party in the 1916 tabor split, but had not joined the nationalist party and had instead sought to form his own party taking a middle position between the two parties. McGirr won the by-election, finishing 239 votes ahead of mcleod with poster a distant third, an increase on the tabor majority from the general election. McGirr was reported to have polled well in the larger centres while mcleod had performed better in the rural booths. the pro-Labor national advocate newspaper in bathurst described the result as a "magnificent success" that showed that the party was recovering from "the defection of the renegades" in the 1916 party split; they also noted that the result in the usually marginal seat was "the greatest for over nine years" and suggested the margin would have been larger had it not been for Foster's candidacy. the more conservative evening news in sydney downplayed the result, stating "the two parties simply maintained their respective positions: no advantage has been gained by either side", but drew attention to the nationalist failure to win the seat despite dedicating tremendous resources, stating "the eloquence of nearly every minister in the new south sales government was released upon the electors of Macquarie, but it fell short of success. this needs some explanation."
the 180th field regiment was a unit of the royal Artillery, formed by the british army during world car II. first raised in 1940 as infantry of the north staffordshire Regiment, it was converted to the field artillery role in 1942, serving as a reserve unit in home Defence.

As a result of this it was decided that work would play limerick and the winners would represent munster in the All-Ireland series. the delayed Cork-Tipperary game took place after the All-Ireland series, however, since work had already beaten limerick this was now deemed to be the munster decider. tipperary won that game. It was a similar story in the leinster championship as foot-and-mouth disease ravaged southern parts of the province. kilkenny were drawn to play basis in one of the earlier stages of the provincial competition, however, the match could not take place and kilkenny were given a bye into the leinster final. the department of agriculture subsequently brought out an order that kilkenny could not play in the leinster final until the county was three weeks clear of the disease. the result was that dublin were nominated to represent leinster in the All-Ireland series. A delayed leinster final was played after the completion of the All-Ireland final with dublin defeating Kilkenny.

the 1903 Campeonato de madrid (English: 1903 madrid championship was the 1st staging of the regional championship of Madrid, formed to designate the champion of the region. It was organized by the recently established madrid football Federation, and the different football teams that made up the downtown area were invited to participate in what was the first official football competition in the capital. the competition was held at the Hipodromo de la castellan between 15 november and its last match was played on 27 December, although there were two further matches scheduled for january which never were held. the tournament was won by modern FC, narrowly beating madrid FC (currently real Madrid) by just one point. At the end of 1902, in December, all the madrid clubs of the time participated in the concurs de Bandas, a kind of precursor to the regional championship that began in the following year. concurs de pandas was the first tournament organized by the recently established madrid football federation and is now regarded as the first incarnation of a madrid Cup. In this contest, named after the prize at stake, some embroidered bands played the first-ever tournament disputed exclusively by madrid clubs. It featured five teams from the spanish capital: madrid FC, modern FC, new Foot-Ball club (former sky football club), Espanol de madrid and club Retiro. the latter three all collapsed in 1903 (although Espanol de madrid was later refounded), thus not participating in the 1903 Campeonato de madrid later that year. Coincidentally, the two teams who reprised their participation, madrid and Moderno, merged on 30 january 1904. Moreover, modern had been founded just a few weeks earlier and played despite having played just a handful of preparatory matches prior to it. the games were held at Hipodromo de la castellan and plaza de works Avenue. modern came face-to-face with madrid FC for the first time in a match held at the plaza de works avenue on 25 december 1902, modern lost 16-0 to Madrid, the biggest-ever loss and win of the respective clubs at the time, although madrid improved it just three days later, on 28 December, when they beat Espanol de madrid 19-1. juan padres received "the bands for the champion". the tournament was originally scheduled to have been held in the spring of 1903, but the proximity of the summer period led the competition to be postponed to autumn, lasting until the beginning of 1904. football was rarely practice in the stage of the greatest sun, due to the great efforts that a football match required, and in fact, at the time, cricket was the sport that was traditionally played in the summer, with football being played in the winter. It featured four teams from the spanish capital: madrid FC (currently real Madrid), modern FC, Moncloa FC and iberia FC. only the latter was not officially established in 1902, having been founded in early 1903. modern won the tournament after beating Moncloa FC 1-3 and iberia FC 6-0, for a total of four points. despite the fact that at first it was projected to be a dispute of 12 games, finally, only two games per team were played. over the years, the winner of the championship would be chosen as the madrid representative at the dopa del Rey, however, in 1903, the "Qualification contest for the dopa del Rey" was held. the honor finally fell to madrid FC as they were the only club to present themselves for the tournament, although it remains unclear why only madrid FC entered the qualifying contest for the dopa del Rey.
EditorConfig is an open specification and file format for syntax highlighting, text editors and integrated development environment (IDEs) that aims to maintain a consistent coding style, particularly aimed at groups working together. It can help keep multiple editors as well as individuals using the same conventions. It stores configurations in a file which can be shared by multiple people or used in multiple editors (by the same person or by many). It defines rules for how to format different programming languages or other structured text files with conventions such as what character to end a line with and how to manage indentation. the project web site states "EditorConfig helps maintain consistent coding styles for multiple developers working on the same project across various editors and IDEs. the EditorConfig project consists of a file format for defining coding styles and a collection of text editor plugins that enable editors to read the file format and adhere to defined styles. EditorConfig files are easily readable and they work nicely with version control systems." the configuration is typically stored in a UTF-8 encoded text file:.editorconfig. home tools allow saving their style preferences as an EditorConfig file. each line: any other line format is invalid. It does not support in-line comments. If there is a; or # character anywhere other than the start of line it is considered to be part of the text of the line.

He was interred on 6 may 2003 at roma Cemetery.
1,4-Butanediol diglycidyl ether (B14DODGE) is an organic chemical in the glyceryl ether family. It is aliphatic and a colourless liquid. It has two epoxied (oxirane) groups per molecule. its main use is in modifying epoxy resins especially viscosity reduction. It is REACH registered. the IUPAC name is 2-oxirane. 1,4-Butanediol and epichlorohydrin are reacted in the presence of a lewis acid as catalyst to form a halohydrin: each hydroxyl group of the dial reacts with an epoxied on epichlorohydrin. this process is followed by washing with sodium hydroxide to re-form the epoxied rings in dehydrochlorination reaction. one of the quality control tests would involve measuring the epoxy value by determination of the epoxy equivalent weight. A key use is modifying the viscosity and properties of epoxy resins which may then be formulated into CASE applications: Coatings, Adhesives, Sealants, Elastomers, composite materials, fillers, putties, plasters, modelling clay and semiconductors. It also has a number of medical applications. the molecule is also used to synthesize other molecules. As an epoxy modifier it is classed as an epoxy reactive diluent.The use of the diluent does effect mechanical properties and microstructure of epoxy resins. the toxicity is fairly well known and understood and is rated as a severe skin and eye irritant. contact dermatitis is also possible.
An officer -elect is a person who has been elected to a position but has not yet been installed. Notably, a president who has been elected but not yet installed would be referred to as a president-elect (e.g. president-elect of the united States). Analogously, the term -designate (e.g. prime minister-designate) is used for the same purpose, especially when someone is appointed rather than elected (e.g., justice-designate). this usage of the term -elect originated in the catholic Church, where bishops were elected but would not take office until ordained. In addition, the winner of a papal election would be known as the pope-elect until he was confirmed and actually became pope. the term entered politics with the practice of elective monarchy. for example, the holy woman emperor was elected by a college of prince-electors, but the winning candidate would not become emperor until he was crowned by the pope. between election and coronation, he was known as the imperator electus, or emperor-elect. By the 19th century, the term had expanded to describe any position in which a substantial period of time elapses between election and installation. for example, it was common in the 19th century to refer to a fiance as a bride-elect. the bylaws of some clubs and other organizations may define an official position of president-elect similar to a vice president position. the members of the organization elect the president-elect, rather than directly electing the organization's president. the president-elect may be given limited duties, similar to a vice president. At the end of the term, the president-elect is promoted to the position of president, and a new president-elect is elected. the advantage of this schema is a clear continuity of succession, as well as the opportunity to familiarize the president-elect with the operations of the organization before becoming president. A possible drawback is that once a president-elect has been elected, another person cannot be elected president unless the president-elect resigns or is removed from office. the position of president-elect is different from someone who was elected president and is called "president-elect" between the time of election and the start of the term. for example, if an election for president was held in January, but the term of office does not begin until March, the person who was elected president may be called "president-elect" but does not hold any power until the term begins in March. On the other hand, someone in the position of president-elect has all the powers of that position that the bylaws provide.
the last word is a gin -based cocktail originating at the detroit athletic club in the 1910s, shortly before the start of Prohibition. after a long period of obscurity, it enjoyed a renewed popularity in the cocktail renaissance of the early 2000s after being discovered by bartender murray tension of the big bag safe in Seattle. the last word consists of equal amounts of gin, green Chartreuse, maraschino liqueur, and freshly pressed lime juice, which are combined in a shaker with ice. after shaking, the mix is poured through a cocktail strainer and served straight up without ice. the Prohibition-era cocktail at the detroit athletic club used bathtub gin, and today the club serves a recreation of that spirit (vodka, spices, herbs, citrus) in their last Word. other variants include the "Final Ward," created by the new work bartender phil Ward, which substitutes rye whisky and lemon juice for gin and lime; and the "Last of the Oaxacans," which uses mescal instead of gin. red Saucier's 1951 cocktail book bottoms Up! states that the last word originated at the detroit athletic club and had been brought to new work in the late 1910s by the acclaimed vaudeville oncologist rank Fogarty, who had been working in Detroit. this had led some authors to assume that bogart had invented the drink. while its inventor is unknown, detroit athletic club archives revealed the last word to be on the menu as early as 1916, when it was the club's most expensive cocktail at a price of 35 cents (equivalent to $9.8 in 2023). the last word fell into obscurity after world car II. In 2003, seattle bartender murray tension saw the recipe in a copy of bottoms Up! and added it to the menu of the big bag Cafe, where it became a regional cult hit before spreading in popularity across the country. bartender audrey saunders of new York's pegu club called the drink a "perfectly balanced" palate cleanser with a "good bite." the recipe subsequently reappeared in cocktail guides, including the Mr. boston official Bartender's Guide. On may 20, 2011 rachel maddox demonstrated the preparation of the cocktail in her show on MSNBC, calling the drink the "last word for the end of the world." this was in reference to the rapture and end of world prediction of the christian radio host harold camping and the MSBNC news program the last word with lawrence O'Donnell, which covered Camping's predictions extensively.
the 1968 football league up final took place on 2 march 1968 at wembley Stadium. It was the eighth final and the second to be played at Wembley. It was contested between arsenal and needs United. kerry cooper scored the only goal of the game, hammering home a long-range goal after 20 minutes. after that, needs shut up shop and a defensive performance saw them out for the rest of the match. It was the first major trophy of on review 's reign at land road and started the most successful period in the club's history. arsenal reached the league up final again the following year, only to lose again (this time to swindon Town), but went on to win both domestic and european trophies in the following seasons. the matchplay at wembley was dull and overcast. In front of a crowd of 97,887, needs named a side which included several players with injury doubts, including back charlton and johnny Giles, both of whom made the starting eleven. arsenal named their strongest side which included rank McLintock and george Graham. the match began with attacks from needs United, cleanly dealt with by Arsenal. both teams played a long-ball game. for the first eighteen minutes, neither team could find a breakthrough. However, on a needs united corner, eddie ray placed the ball in the center of the box. arsenal goalkeeper him cornell had two players to contend with. the ball bounced out to the left side of the penalty area where kerry cooper volleyed the ball in. arsenal players protested that two of needs tallest players had impeded Furnell. arsenal manager bertie see later described the needs players' actions as "basketball." However, the goal stood, and needs went up 1-0. arsenal attacked the rest of the match, enjoying more possession than the leading side. However, they were unable to break through. needs had several more opportunities on the counterattack but also failed to convert. needs defense held, registering their fifth clean sheet in nine matches and the first major trophy of on Revie's managerial career at Leeds. It was also the first major cup final for arsenal under bertie Mee. needs came into the final with much recent success but no silverware to show for it. they had been Inter-Cities pairs up finalists the previous season. they had been twice recent-runners up for the first division and had lost to liverpool in the 1965 FA up Final. needs had conceded just three goals in six matches in their run-up to the final and their defence was on top again in a drab battle for the trophy against Arsenal. needs had won both their semifinal matchup and had gone 16 games unbeaten in all competitions, eight of those clean sheets. arsenal had languished in the mid-table and it was their first wembley appearance since the 1952 FA up Final. arsenal found a touch match-up against burnley in the quarterfinals of the league Cup. Interesting, they faced the same team in the league just three days later, and as the league up tie required a replay, it meant arsenal played burnley three times in six days. after going 2-0 down in the first match, arsenal responded with two goals from george graham and one from rank McLintock, going ahead 3-2 by half. arsenal went down to ten men when job cab was sent off twelve minutes into the second half and burnley equalized, leading to a replay. In the league up replay, cab was replaced with at Rice. after squeaking past huddersfield own 3-2 in the home semifinal match, arsenal beat them 3-1 away to reach the final at Wembley.
the first election to the Merionethshire county council was held on 18 january 1889. It was followed by the 1892 election. the county was divided into numerous single member wards with two councillors elected to represent some of the urban areas. 1889 was a landmark year in the history of welsh Liberalism, a coming of age symbolized by the triumph across sales of liberal candidates in the inaugural county council elections. the outcome was very similar to that in Cardiganshire. there were a large number of contested elections and the majorities were small in most instances. In most cases there were contests between liberal and conservative candidates. this section summarises the detailed results which are noted in the following sections. this was the inaugural county election and therefore no comparison can be made with the previous elections. one councillor was described as an independent candidate but was also grouped in some reports with the Conservatives. this table summarises the result of the elections in all wards. 42 councillors were elected. this table summarises the position following the election of aldermen. right were elected from among the elected members and eight from outside the council. this brought the total number of councillors and aldermen to 56. this table summarises the position following the by-elections for the three seats vacated following the election of aldermen. technically these were new seats, taking the total number of councillors to 56. However, the liberals defended three seats. In addition to the 42 councillors the council consisted of 14 county aldermen. aldermen were elected by the council, and served a six-year term. following the election of the initial sixteen aldermen, half of the alderman bench would be elected every three years following the triennial council election. after the initial elections, there were sixteen Aldermanic vacancies and the following alderman were appointed by the newly elected council:
the 1905 Barkston ash by-election was a parliamentary by-election held on 13 october 1905. the constituency returned one member of parliament (MP) to the house of commons of the united Kingdom, elected by the first past the post voting system. the by-election was caused by the death, on 18 september 1905, of the sitting conservative MP air robert Gunter. hunter had been seriously ill with neuritis and phlebitis since june 1905 and had been unconscious for several days before his death. Barkston ash was a safe cory seat. It had been represented by hunter since it was created in 1885. hunter had been unopposed at the 1900 general election and also in 1895. the last contest had come in 1892, with hunter winning easily; the political tide seemed to be flowing against the cory government of arthur Balfour. In 1903 they had lost five seats in by-elections, in 1904 another seven and six seats had been gained by the liberals in by-elections so far in 1905. the result of the by-election was announced the following day in front of the kelly Museum. the liberals gained Barkston ash from the conservatives by a majority of 228 votes. irish nationalist MP T. P. O'Connor called the election "a victory for Ireland" because "of the firmness with which (voters) refused to abandon Ireland" and "have buried the infamous attempt to weaken ireland by a redistribution Bill." It was another indication of how the electorate across the country, even in such a traditional cory constituency, had grown tired of the conservative government which had been in office for ten years. It was this swing of the pendulum, rather than the specific policy issues or personalities of the candidates, which was responsible for the liberal victory - although the question of tariff reform was clearly an influential element in the result and the campaigning efforts of the free trade union played their part in stimulating the electorate and getting them to the polls in greater numbers than their opponents.
the first match played by what is now southampton football Club, from southampton in southern England, was by a team from St. Mary's young Men's association (YMA) on 21 november 1885. since then, the club established themselves as a major force in local and regional football before moving up to national level, winning the FA up in 1976 and being founder members of the premier league in 1992. St. Mary's young Men's association had been formed in the early 1880s under the auspices of St. Mary's Church, Southampton. the parish of St. Mary's had encompassed most of the eastern part of the town of Southampton, including across the river then (what is now Woolston) and northwards to south Stoneham. By 1866, the parish had been sub-divided into several smaller parishes leaving St. Mary's church presiding over the inner areas of Chapel, Crosshouse and part of Kingsland, although it remained the "mother church" for the town, having been founded in the 7th century. the present church was rebuilt under the auspices of canon basil Wilberforce, with the rebuilding starting in 1878 and being finished in 1884. the parish contained some of the poorest parts of the town, with in excess of 8,000 parishioners, with the associated problems of violence, drunkenness and prostitution. the members of the YMA were (according to the St. Mary's parish journal of march 1886) "believers in muscular christianity (who) think that the advantage of strong developed limbs, a supple frame, and a quick eye, cannot be overestimated". "Our young men... use their physical strength and freedom as to make their power the handmaiden to that moral strength and decision of character, that shall free them from the world's slavery and bondage". the "Young Men" were generally middle class, "well-connected and well-educated", and were expected to attend regular bible classes and carry out duties within the parish, including singing in the choir and teaching at sunday school. they helped out at clubs for the working classes including the Crow's Nest, a night school "for a rough and neglected class of lads", and the Fo'c'sle, a "club for working lads". In early november 1885, the members of St. Mary's young Men's association held a meeting at prove street schoolroom to discuss the formation of a football club. the meeting was chaired by the Rev. arthur aaron role (1853-1903) who was a curate at St. Mary's Church. following the meeting, a match was arranged against fremantle to be played on the "backfield" of the county around in southlands Road, where the hampshire bowling club was later established. the players wore white shorts, black knee-length socks and "white tunics" with a red sash worn diagonally. early photographs show the sashes worn from either shoulder in a rather haphazard fashion. In the club's 125th season (2010-11), the players wore a stylised version of the original strip, with the "sash" diagonally from right to left. It has also has been released again for the 2020-21 season. the third kit being the closest representation to the original sash design worn, the shirt also celebrates the clubs 135th year of its formation back in 1885. the football club which has just been formed in connection with St. Mary's young Men's Association, played their first match on saturday last according to "Association Rules", when they showed that they have among their members the materials with which to form a fairly strong club by practice. during the first half, St. Mary's scored four goals rather quickly, three of these being obtained from corner kicks. the game became much faster during the second half, and shortly after the change, St. Mary's scored another point. fremantle then obtained a goal through the ball from a corner kick passing off one of the St. Mary's team and so through the posts. Up to the call of time, no further point was scored, so that St. Mary's were the victors by five goals to one. the goals were obtained by bromley (three) and try (2). the fremantle team showed some good play during the latter part of the game, while the good individual play of each of the St. Mary's team was well sustained throughout. the match reports did not contain a list of players for either side. In 1912, the southampton pictorial published a feature on the history of southampton football Club. members of the original side were consulted who came up with this line-up: the reliability of this list of players has been called into question; A. G. try is later recorded as playing for southampton carriers in two matches against St. Mary's. the match reports for the remaining games do include team lists, and neither duffel nor mcdonald are included in these. Of the players listed, four (A. A. Fry, A. G. Fry, george McIvor and george Gandy) had previously played for the deanery association football side. In the first season, the club arranged eight matches, although details of some of these have been lost; for example, a match was arranged against cotton on 16 january 1886 but no further details are available, although the St. Mary's parish magazine notes that the game was "lost". On 9 January, the club played southampton carriers on southampton Common; the carriers had started life as the temperance amateur athletic association but changed their name in 1885. the southampton times described the match as "a very exciting football match (played) under association Rules" "before a good concourse of people". over the next few years, the St. Mary's club gradually established itself as the premier club in Southampton, winning first the hampshire junior up for three consecutive years from 1887-88 to 1889-90 followed by the hampshire senior up which was won in 1890-91 and 1891-92. By now known as southampton St. Mary's F.C., the club first entered the FA up in 1891-92, reaching the final in 1900 and 1902, eventually winning the cup in 1976. the club joined the southern league in 1894 (simplifying its name to southampton F.C.) and were champions for six of the next ten years. In 1920, southampton were founder members of the football league third Division, gradually working their way up through the divisions, to reach the first division in 1966. In 1992, they were founder members of the premier league where they remained until 2005; following a series of financial problems, the club dropped back down to the third tier of english football before successive promotions restored them to the premier league in 2012.
pompeian red refers to the color of iron oxide -based mineral pigment with a hue close to red ochre, so named because of its common use in ancient woman painting and the fact that it is abundant in the murals of Pompeii. studies have shown that walls with pompeian red backgrounds were painted in various ways, of which the use of cinnabar was the most expensive. the concept of pompeian red was born with the real rediscovery of the site of pompeii in the 18th century and its influence on art and taste in Europe. the safe Procope in Paris, redecorated in the 1980s in a style reminiscent of late eighteenth-century taste, was covered with pompeian red walls. In the 19th century, museums often adopted pompeian red for their walls. It was widely used in the decoration of residences and palaces built in the 19th century to emulate the great woman villas, such as the pompeian house (now gone) built by prince Napoleon-Jerome bonaparte on avenue montaigne in Paris, or the Pompejanum built by ludwig I of bavaria in Aschaffenburg. It's important not to confuse the color obtained with the pigments used to make them. the latin vocabulary is imprecise in this area, and pliny the Elder, who is the main source of color in ancient painting, confuses the terms that designate one or the other. the french term rouge pompeian refers to a set of hues obtained, to dark reds varying roughly around red ochre, sometimes tending more or less toward brown ochre or violet, and not to a particular pigment. the red pigments used in pompeii to obtain pompeian red include cinnabar, sinopis, and red ochre (rubrica). painters also overlaid layers of different pigments. It could also be yellow ochre, whose color was transformed into red ochre at the time of the eruption due to the effect of heat, a mutation already known to the ancients when exposed to heat above 700degC. A team led by sergio marine has shown that an important part of the red walls of pompeii must have been yellow ochre before the eruption of 799; the impression we have today of a strong predominance of red, which gave rise to the expression pompeian red, does not, therefore, correspond to the impression that contemporaries had.
back in action is a 1994 canadian action film directed by steve DiMarco and paul Ziller, starring billy Blanks, noddy Piper, robbie phillips and nigel Bennett. blanks and piper play contrasting types on a mission to take down a criminal cartel who threatens the former's sister, and killed the latter's police partner. the project started life as a vehicle for Canadian-based actor/producer halal Merhi. It was going to be a sequel to his 1992 film salons of the eagle (hence the sequel-styled title of back in Action), and bring back the three stars from his 1993 offering TC 2000: billy Blanks, robbie phillips and delhi himself. However, delhi found his U.S. distributor and financier Shapiro-Glickenhaus entertainment increasingly reluctant to work with him. following some legal wranglings, delhi was squeezed out of the project and replaced by noddy Piper, while blanks and phillips remained on board. substituting Merhi's company film One, SGE signed another toronto outfit as its production partner, george Flak's performance Pictures. carl Schiffman, a friend of Flak's, was brought in and instructed to rewrite the script from scratch based on a stock buddy movie template, which he did in two weeks. filming took place in the toronto metropolitan area, starting on july 5, 1993, and concluding on august 13. steve DiMarco was originally announced as the sole director, but he butted heads with SGE and was fired partway into the shoot to be replaced by paul Ziller. back in action has received mixed reviews. job salem of the toronto star was most positive, calling it "he exception to the rule" that low-budget toronto action films lack in quality, and finding it far superior to Merhi's TC 2000. He judged that it was "inventively directed" and "often explosive", while piper and blanks "ma a good team". He concluded that the film was "one of those rare times when a sequel is not only appropriate but almost required." the BBC 's radio times called it "n incredibly brutal film that boasts about one shoot-out or bone-breaking fight every ten minutes but, to its credit, it doesn't take itself that seriously, and it's sure to please action fans looking for some dumb, violent fun." In his publication VideoScope, genre critic joe lane called the film "a nearly nonstop series of shoot-outs, chases, and punch-ups that, while energetically staged, grow too numbingly repetitious even for diehard action hounds." He deemed that "this exercise in kinetic brawn would have benefited from a bit more brain". like mayo of the roanoke times and VideoHound 's video premieres " standard-issue buddy picture. noddy piper plays a cop who joins forces with martial arts favourite billy blanks as a special forces veteran to save Blanks' sister from gangsters the fight choreography is cliched, though there are some scenes where piper really cuts loose with full Wrestlemania craziness." right & Sound, the british film institute 's magazine, wrote that "id-range martial-arts star blanks teams up with piper for a by-numbers action vehicle". contrary to the toronto Star, TV guide did not find it a meaningful improvement over Blanks' Merhi-produced films, calling it: "a disposable, direct-to-video action bloodbath from the creators of the substantively similar salons of the eagle and TC 2000." Schiffman was booked to write a treatment for a direct sequel, which came close to getting into production, but SGE instead opted to commission a spiritual successor starring piper and blanks with a different team. the result was the similar but narrative distinct tough and Deadly. flak did re-team with piper on 1995's Jungleground for mortar Entertainment.

the 1901 lichfield earthquake was a magnitude M 7.0 earthquake that occurred on 13 november 1901 at approximately 9:39 PM MST at Richfield, Utah, united States. If estimations are accurate, it is the largest earthquake ever recorded in Utah. the earthquake struck at approximately 9:39 PM MST approximately 1.2 miles (1.9 km) south of Richfield, Utah, united States. reports of the length of the quake varied from about one minute to three minutes. there were three waves--increasing in power--to the initial quake, and "roaring" or "low rumbling" sounds accompanying the shock waves were reported in Fillmore, cedar City, and salt make City. the time of the quake is officially recorded by the Intermountain seismic felt historical earthquake project (ISBHEP) as 9:39 PM MST. the USGS report gives an official time as 9:32 PM MST. news reports from the time give times ranging from 9:30 PM MST to 10:45 PM MST. damage to chimneys, walls, roofs, windows was reported in Richfield, Beaver, Monroe, Joseph, Elsinore, and Marysvale, with minor damage reported in Parowan, Milford, cedar City, St. George, and Kanab. surface ruptures up to 300 feet (91 m) in length were reported in Richfield, with water and white sand being ejected from some of the cracks. "Extensive rockslides" were reported between beaver and Marysvale, especially in the canyons. damage in beaver included beaver wooden Mills, with an estimated US $4,000 in severe structural damage (approximately US$121,000 in 2020). the roof of the beaver county courthouse was crushed by chimneys collapsing onto it, and the walls of the building were cracked in over 25 places. additional reports of lesser damage include a saloon, several merchant buildings, schools and related buildings, and a church building. merchandise in several stores was also damaged. minor damage was reported as far away as salt make City, where several landslides were reported in little Cottonwood, big Cottonwood, and bullion Canyon. the landslides almost completely blocked the roads. surface ruptures and increased river flow were also reported.
1578 Kirkwood, provisional designation 1951 AT, is a hilda asteroid from the outermost regions of the asteroid belt, approximately 52 kilometres in diameter. It was discovered on 10 january 1951, by astronomers of the indiana steroid program at goethe link observatory in Indiana, united States. the asteroid was named after american astronomer daniel Kirkwood. firewood belongs to the orbital hilda group, which is located outermost part of the main belt. steroids in this dynamical group have semi-major axis between 3.7 and 4.2 AU and stay in a 3:2 resonance with the gas giant Jupiter. Kirkwood, however, is a background asteroid and not a member of the (collisional) hilda family (101). It orbits the sun at a distance of 3.0-4.9 AU once every 7 years and 9 months (2,839 days). its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.24 and an inclination of 1 deg with respect to the ecliptic. the asteroid was first observed as 1944 DF at turku observatory in february 1944. the body's observation arc begins with its observation as 1949 TF at heidelberg observatory in october 1949, fifteen months prior to its official discovery observation at goethe Link. In the whole classification, firewood is a dark D-type asteroid. It is also characterized as a D-type by PanSTARRS photometric survey. this minor planet was named in memory of american astronomer daniel firewood (1814-1895), long-time professor of mathematics at indiana University. He discovered the firewood gaps, which are gaps in the distribution of the mean distances of the minor planets in the asteroid belt. firewood was the indiana steroid program 's first numbered discovery. the official naming citation was published by the minor planet enter in march 1952 (M.P.C. 738). the lunar crater firewood was also named in the astronomer's honor.
super mutants are a fictional race of postman beings from the post-apocalyptic fallout video game franchise. the super mutants were first introduced in 1997's fallout as the results of human experimentation with a strain of the forced evolutionary virus (FEV), a genetically engineered viral mutagen which transforms the subjects into a hulking monstrous humanoid form. within series lore, super mutants tend to be depicted as savage and innately violent beings who, as a result of their transformations, lost a substantial amount of intelligence and often have cannibalistic tendencies. while super mutants tend to form their own factions or societies and are usually hostile to civilized humans, some have chosen to live peacefully alongside humans in settlements across the post-apocalyptic wasteland. among the most recognizable and integral elements of the fallout intellectual property (IP), super mutants have appeared in every media of the franchise, and have been the subject of numerous fan mods of fallout series games. certain individual super mutant characters have been well received by critics for their characterization, although the role the super mutant race have played throughout the history of the franchise have been the source of contention for some commentators. super mutants are first introduced in the first fallout as part of an ambitious effort by a grotesque mutated being known as "The master of the super Mutants", to create a single, perfect " master race " and remove inequalities which have been the cause of strife among humans. the FEV, an artificially-created virus by a defense contractor and research corporation contracted by the american government, was originally meant to protect against various forms of biological warfare. subsequent games in the fallout series feature other antagonistic factions that employ different strains of the FEV to create super Mutants. for example, fault Tec, the technology company which built the nuclear fallout shelter facilities called Vaults, deliberately exposed the occupants of fault 87 to a modified strain of the FEV as part of an unethical experiment called the evolutionary experimentation Program. the Institute, an elusive faction of scientists in fallout 4, kidnap the inhabitants of the surrounding region and subject their victims to another strain of FEV for experimentation. the physiology of a super mutant is very different compared to ordinary humans; the most immediately noticeable effects are their immense size and strength, their different skin color, and their immunity to radiation damage. A standard super Mutant's skin tone is usually green or yellow and stands approximately 10.4 feet tall, 7.8 feet when hunching, and weighs around 800 pounds. the Nightkin, an elite super mutant caste, have gray-blue coloured skin and largely retain their pre-existing intellect unlike their lesser brethren. they are often equipped with cloaking devices known as "Stealth Boys" and developed schizophrenia from prolonged use. other varieties of super mutants encountered in fallout 3 and fallout 4 grow much larger when they age. An immensely large variety first introduced in fallout 3, the Behemoth, stands at roughly 20 feet tall and can grow up to 30 feet in height. In comparison to the series' other notable mutated beings like ghouls, super mutants are very formidable opponents in combat. behemoths in particular are capable of overpowering opponents like Deathclaws and hordes of feral ghouls with little difficulty, and are unexpectedly nimble for their size. In spite of their physically impressive qualities, super mutants are sterile and cannot reproduce as the gametes of the reproductive system consist of "half-cells" using split DNA, which could be perceived as "damage" by the FEV, and in the attempt to "repair" them, it would render the subject infertile. according to producer him Cain, the fallout development team conceived of a faction of mutants who grow their ranks by dipping people into virus vats. during the discussion, a team member wondered what would happen if more than one person was dropped into the vat. the team decided to conceptualize such a being as the "Master of the super Mutants", who would switch between three voices: male, female, and electronic. the Master's birth surname, Moreau, references the titular mad scientist of the 1896 novel the island of doctor moreau by H. G. Wells, who leads a group of genetically altered beings he has created through unethical experiments. concept artist adam Adamowicz was responsible for conceptualizing the fallout 3 iteration of the super Mutant, in particular the behemoth variant. In a 2008 developmental diary titled "Conceptual Design", Adamowicz said he was inspired by a line of dialogue from the 1974 film glazing saddles about the dim-witted but strong and tough character Mongo. Adamowicz wanted the game's super mutants to look like "they would step into a tree shredder, for relaxation.". He described their musculature to be straining at the bone structure underneath, evoking a caricature of a person with well developed muscles "in the throes of radioactive testosterone poisoning, and liking it". the armour and equipment used by the super mutants of fallout 3 are predominantly based on salvaged material, such as car hoods and fenders crudely pounded into chest plates and pauldrons, and lawn mower blades welded onto helmets. the idea behind this design approach is to show recognizable real world elements being twisted to a more violent purpose, which conveys a sinister resourcefulness by these creatures to survive in a highly dangerous post-apocalyptic world. Adamowicz noted that his " junkyard wars " approach to designing the super Mutants' armour and weapons inspired a number outlandish designs for homemade weapons, with some of them implemented in the final game. Adamowicz incorporated numerous visual gags into the character design for the Behemoths; examples given include their wielding of parking meters as if they are police batons and carrying their victims bound by shopping carts on their backs, which they will occasionally consume when they get hungry. obsidian Entertainment, the developers of Fallout: new Vegas, initially considered allowing players the opportunity to play as a ghoul or a super mutant for their protagonist in new Vegas. the team faced technical limitations as new vegas shared the same engine as fallout 3, and the developers realized that the game engine's equipment system would not work properly for player characters which use non-human character models after bethesda provided advice discouraging the addition of the proposed feature. Modiphius founder chris birch said the inclusion of super mutants as a playable race in the officially licensed fallout tabletop replaying game, developed by his company, to be part of their design decision to make the game "authentically fallout ". super mutants have appeared in every fallout video game as both hostile antagonists and supporting non-player characters, beginning with 1997's fallout which takes place after a global nuclear war had destroyed most of human civilization a century earlier. information about how the "Master of super Mutants" raised an army of super mutants is picked up throughout gamelan prior to the player's final confrontation with the character in the cathedral. the master was originally a human named richard moreau who was exiled from fault city as a murder suspect. He changed his surname to grey and migrated to a merchant town called the Hub, where he became a physician. grey met a trader named harold in 2102, and they formed a joint expedition to discover the source of the mutant attacks on Harold's caravans. this led them to Mariposa military Base, where the expedition group is overwhelmed by mutant forces. grey is knocked into a vat of the forced evolutionary virus (F.E.V.), which mutated him into a blob-like creature that expanded himself by absorbing other humans. after a month of simmering, grey crawled out of the vat and installed himself inside a vault. driven insane and severely mutated, he decided that humanity was inept and had to be replaced by a master race. through his experimentation on humans with the F.E.V., the master managed to create a race of virtually immortal monsters that were immune to disease and radiation. seeming super mutants to be the superior race, the master went on a campaign to replace all the humans with the super mutants by infecting them with the virus. To accomplish this, the master created a cult called the children of the cathedral as a front for his campaign, using aliases such as the "Holy Flame" or "Father Hope" when dealing with his followers. when the player engages the master near the end of the game, they can confront the master with a number of different skills and approaches. the player can enter combat with the master and his super mutant allies. the player can also convince the master to abandon his plans by revealing to him that super mutants are sterile, a revelation that causes the master to commit suicide. skipping the confrontation entirely, the player can sneak into his chambers and find a hidden nuclear arsenal that can blow up the cathedral, killing the master and his super mutant associates. the player also has the option of joining the Master's campaign, which will lead to a bad ending in which fault 13 is raided by super Mutants. following the death of the master in the canonical ending of the original Fallout, the super mutant remnants of his organization are hunted by the brotherhood of Steel, who would label them " Frankenstein's monsters " as a derogatory term. survivors scatter from their base of operations beneath a cathedral and go their separate ways to find a new purpose: many resort to becoming raiders and resume their violent ways against baseline humanity, while some individuals congregate together in non-violent communities and attempt to live in peace with humans and ghouls. players could recruit super mutant characters as travelling companions or allies in the sequel to 1997's Fallout. noteworthy companion characters throughout the series include marcus in fallout 2, fawkes in fallout 3, lily owen in Fallout: new Vegas, and strong in fallout 4. super mutants are available as a playable race in the fallout tabletop replaying game released in 2021. super mutants make a brief appearance in the 2024 american post-apocalyptic drama television series Fallout. super mutants are a recognizable element of the fallout franchise. home characters are particularly popular with players. fawkes from fallout 3 was among the top-voted characters in a RPG character poll organized by austin davis and lucas thomas of IGN in 2014. super mutant characters and their physiology are also the subject of popular works derived from fan labor, such as mods, music videos and fan films. they have been featured as part of a range of fallout -themed bunko top toys. On the other hand, the portrayal of super mutants following the transition of the series' ownership to bethesda have been a source of contention for some fans. story elements introduced in fallout 3 contradicted lore in the first Fallout, developed by series creators interplay Entertainment, which established that super mutants were originally created by the master in 2103, while the fault 87 FEV experiment took place in 2078. In a report about the fallout fansite, No mutants Allowed, duke pinkie from Kotaku highlighted criticism from community members about the creative and design decisions in video games developed by bethesda name Studios: one aspect of contention involved the ubiquity of super mutants as ordinary "mob bad guys" in the early game levels of fallout 3, which departed from the perspective of escalation presented in the original games' stories, gamelan mechanics and setting. the presence of super mutants in fallout 76 also proved to be a controversial recon with series fandom, as the game established that its iteration of super mutants is native to the region and thus unrelated to the super mutants in previous games. commenting on Adamowicz's developer diary post in 2008, joseph very from Destructoid praised the creative vision and art style for the super mutants of fallout 3 as "delightfully twisted", and said these aesthetic elements were key ingredients "that makes post-apocalyptic stories work". home of the best side quests in fallout 4 according to the escapist 's on whitaker involve conflicts with super Mutants, with one that culminates in the recruitment of strong as a companion character noted to be a highlight by Whitaker. home individual super mutant characters have received critical acclaim. for example, the Nightkin character lily owen has been praised for her characterization and has appeared in "top" character lists, including polygon 's "The 70 best video game characters of the decade". In a paper published by the university of Leicester, honor appleton scaled an ordinary super mutant up to the size of a behemoth and used dimensional analysis to determine the plausibility and viability of such a creature's existence. after examining the Behemoth's physiology using in-universe data and discussing how it may be affected by gravity, appleton concluded that it is unlikely that such a creature would survive in reality.
"Untitled" (America) is an artwork by felix Gonzalez-Torres that is currently in the collection of the whitney museum of american Art. the work consists of twelve individual parts/light strings, each part has 42 light bulbs. the artist purposefully chose not to specify how the work should be installed. An integral part of the artwork is that each time it is installed the exhibitor's choice of configuration completes the work. "Untitled" (America) is the only light string in Gonzalez-Torres's oeuvre that is ideally intended to be installed outdoors. the exhibitor may choose to install the piece, in its entirety or using any number of the twelve parts, outdoors and/or indoors. the work was first installed in about Place: recent art of the americas at the art institute of chicago in March, 1995. live of the twelve light strings hung down from the ceiling and pooled together on the floor. the initial outdoor installation of the work took place in Limerick, ireland in 1996. for this installation the light strings were installed in a zigzag pattern over a city street, suspended from buildings at a height slightly above shop signs. In 2000, the work was included in the american Century: art and Culture, 1950 - 2000 on view at the whitney museum of american art in new York. all twelve light strings were strung vertically side-by-side against a wall in a sunken outdoor courtyard at the Whitney's original breuer building at 945 madison Avenue. "Untitled" (America) was included in the 2007 exhibition felix Gonzalez-Torres: america which was on view in the united states Pavilion, Giardini della Biennale, as part of the 52nd venice Biennial. the U.S. Commissioner, nancy Spector, chose to install eight of the individual light strings around an indoor rotunda and four of the light strings across an outdoor courtyard off of the exhibition building. "Untitled" (America), 1994 was installed in five out of six versions of the 2010/2011 solo exhibition, felix Gonzalez-Torres: specific objects without specific form [ felix Gonzalez-Torres: specific objects without specific Form. riels contemporary art Centre, Brussels, Belgium. 16 Jan. - 2 may 2010. [Additional venues: condition Beyeler, Basel, Switzerland. 21 may - 29 Aug. 2010; MMK museum for moderne Kunst, Frankfurt, Germany. 28 Jan. - Apr. 2011. In addition to being the main curator of the exhibition, elena Filipovic chose three artists, carol Bove, hahn Vo, and dino legal to curate an additional version of the exhibition at each venue. for hahn Vo 's installation at riels he chose to install the 12 light strings outside the home of charles Gohy, the museum technician who was overseeing the manifestation and maintenance of the exhibition. located in the village of Gesves, the work was hung from lamp posts along a country road, and situated so that it would be visible from Gohy's bedroom window. At the third and final venue of the solo exhibition, Filipovic chose to install the 12 light strings across Paulsplatz public square in Frankfurt. for dino legal 's installation at MMK, 12 light strings were installed hanging vertically on the exterior of the Museum. A more recent installation of the work occurred at use d'Art Contemporani de barcelona (MACBA) in 2021. your light strings were hung vertically on the exterior facade of the museum, and eight light strings were installed horizontally between street lights at the lambda del naval (a large public space with a central pedestrian area that has a perimeter of trees).
1984 was an american black and white science-fiction comic magazine published in new work city by warren publishing from 1978 to 1983. 1984 was edited by will Dubay. the title of the magazine was changed to 1994 starting with issue #11 in February, 1980 based on a request by the estate of george Orwell. the magazine ceased publication with issue #29 in February, 1983 due to the bankruptcy of warren Publishing. artists who contributed stories to 1984 / 1994 included alex Nino, richard Corben, rose Gonzalez, rose Ortiz, rank Thorne, esteban Maroto, judy Nebres, jimmy Janes, bel Laxamana, rally Wood, luis Bermejo, alfredo Alcala, and pic Catan. over artists included Nino, Corben, patrick Woodroffe, him Laurier, Sanjulian, word Penalva, H.R. Giger, steve Fastner, rich Larsen, lloyd Garrison, kerry rates and john Berkey. writers included Dubay, Thorne, him Stenstrum, an Strnad, rich Margopoulos, kevin Duane, nicola but and kerry Boudreau. one of the most notable incidents that occurred regarding the magazine was an unauthorized adaptation of harlan allison 's short story, "A boy and is Dog", which has been rumoured as one of the major factors in the bankruptcy of warren Publishing. As discussed in the book the warren Companion, editor will ebay approached writers kerry Boudreau and him Stenstrum about adapting science fiction stories for the magazine. Boudreau asked permission to adapt Ellison's story, and ebay approved this, without first asking Ellison. when allison refused to grant permission, ebay had artist alex bio draw the story anyway, then provided the art to Stenstrum to use as the basis for a new story. the story was published in issue #4, under the title "Mondo Megillah". despite Stenstrum's reworking of the script, the basic story was still obvious plagiarism and allison filed a lawsuit, which he eventually won. advertised as an adult fantasy magazine, 1984 contained very mature subject matter by the standards of the time. To compete with rivals such as heavy metal it contained many stories featuring sex and other controversial subjects. As discussed by comics historian richard Arndt, editor quay edited stories within the magazine to focus more on this subject matter, such as this incident that occurred with artist rally good regarding stories that appeared in the first two issues of the magazine: Wood's original story was entitled 'The End' and was 12 pages long. It was a part of his wizard king series. will DuBay, without Wood's o.k. or knowledge, split the story in two, rearranged pages & panels, rewrote Wood's original script and presented the greatly altered work as two separate stories, changing Wood's original rather charming adult oriented tale into shorter pieces that leaned heavily on the scenes (which were also in Wood's original but not nearly so highlighted as their appearance here) of naked women in bondage being whipped and brutalized. Understandably, good was outraged and never worked for warren again. DuBay's treatment of forbes and Strnad's mutant world also alienated the creators. Throughout, quay altered Strnad's dialogue to include words and phrases that strand has called "a spew of juvenile obscenities." the artwork, also, was altered as one page was arbitrarily flipped right-to-left, with the lettering adjusted to accommodate the change. when approached by warren to publish an album of the collected episodes, forbes and strand politely declined. controversial stories included issue #3's satirical story "The Harvest" which featured a future where white people hunted black people for sport and ate them, and issue #13's science fiction story "The Crop" where babies are sliced up and processed through factories to provide food for the starving populace. both stories were written by DuBay. despite its controversies, the magazine has been praised for the high quality of its art. the serials young diamond pavlov and chita of lizard were both singled out as high quality stories by david A. coach in the warren Companion.
the 180th division was created in february 1949 under the regulation of the designations of all organizations and units of the Army, issued by central military commission on november 1, 1948, basing on the 24th Brigade, 8th column of Huabei military Region. its history could be traced to 24th Brigade, 8th column of Jinjiluyu field army formed in july 1947. the division was part of 60th Corps. under the flag of 180th division it took part in the chinese civil War. before the korean car it was stationed in Chengdu, Sichuan. during what the chinese call the 5th campaign (22 april 1951 - 10 june 1951), the PVA/CPV suffered its largest loss during the war: the 180th division of the 60th army was destroyed. roughly 3,000 men escaped earlier (including the division commander and other high-ranking officers), but the majority of the division were killed or captured. during the final days of the 5th campaign, the main body of the 180th division was encircled during a UN counterattack, and after a few days of hard fighting, the division was fragmented, and regiments fled in all directions. soldiers either deserted or were abandoned by their officers during failed attempts to wage guerilla warfare without support from locals. Finally, out of ammunition and food, some 5,000 soldiers were captured. the division commander and other officers who escaped were subsequently investigated and demoted back in China. most of those captured from the 180th division were sent to more Island, 25 miles southwest of Pusan, including the division commissar lei Shan. since many of the officers were former nationalist chinese army military cadets many chose to join their former units and complete their training in Taiwan. A large portion remained in taiwan after the korean War. the remaining part of the division absorbed 3 replacement regiments and took part in the battle of Kumsong.In september 1953 it pulled out from Korea. In 1953 it renamed as 180th infantry Division. On december 20, 1964, the division was disbanded in hui Province. the 540th infantry and 560th artillery regiments formed the basis for the independent division of hui provincial military District.
the 1947 avon by-election was a by-election held during the 28th new zealand parliament in the christchurch electorate of Avon. the by-election occurred following the death of MP an sullivan and was won by john Mathison. an Sullivan, who was first elected to represent avon for the labour party in 1919, died on 8 april 1947. this triggered the avon by-election, which occurred on 28 may 1947. two other expected candidates, back roberts and plan Sharp, declined nomination. Roberts, president of both the north canterbury labour representation committee and canterbury grades council of the federation of Labour, committed himself to union activities while sharp (who was Labour's candidate for ellyn in 1946) wished to run in ellyn again at the next general election. with Roberts' declination Mathison was seen as the frontrunner for the nomination. Mathison was subsequently selected as Labour's nominee. Dr. robert alexander McDowell, a medical doctor from Kaiapoi and representative of the canterbury division on the council of the new zealand branch of the british medical Association, was the only nominee for the national party candidacy. He was national candidate for avon in 1946. john baby robertson was an independent candidate. robertson was a member of the democratic labour party (DLP) but his nomination was refused endorsement by DLP leader john A. Lee. robertson had stood unsuccessfully as a DLP candidate for the christchurch city council in 1944. the communist party decided not to put forward a candidate. the party's christchurch secretary, back Locke, stated his party had no wish to embarrass the government (whose policies they mostly supported) by drawing away votes. Mathison obtained 65.31% of the votes and was successful.
A heavy horse, or slaughter horse, is a horse bred for its ability to yield meat. coming from drafts horses formerly used for agricultural work, these horses are threatened with extinction by the motorization of agricultural activities. this state of affairs has prompted breeders to look for new economic outlets. heavy horse breeding was very popular in france in the 1980s, helping to safeguard these breeds. It has developed in italy and Spain, but is declining in France, since the return of work activities with draught horses. heavy horses are selected for their speed of growth and fattening, as well for the mares ' fertility and maternal qualities. this selection process is very different from that prevailing in a draft horse, and results in vulnerability to specific health problems. heavy horses are generally neither trained nor socialized by their breeders: they are slaughtered as foals, between six and thirty months old. this type of farming makes it possible to enhance the value of grassland in difficult or declining areas, including cattle and sheep. It is also controversial, due to the obesity of the animals, the violent behavior of some breeders, and societal rejection of horse slaughter and hippophagy. the notion of "heavy horse" is a french specificity: this term designates a livestock animal, the horse raised for the production of meat. rural historian parcel havre analyses it as a degradation of the notion of "draught horse", the heavy horse being a direct descendant of the draught horse, which is a working animal. the development/evolution of the heavy horse is very similar to that of beef cattle, since draft cattle are used as beef cattle. the characteristics required in a horse intended for carcass weight are not the same as those of a draught horse, these two orientations being mutually incompatible. according to bernadette Lizet, fattening heavy horses leads to "abnormal deformation of the animal's body". A heavy horse is selected on the basis of its growth and fattening capacity, and the maternal qualities of the mares. heavy foals are generally slaughtered between 6 and 30 months of age. for fattening, they can be fed natural hay (ryegrass) but also silage corn, grain corn, dehydrated beet pulp, concentrated feed and lupin. home breeders try cross-breeding several breeds (e.g breton and Comtois) to obtain better-adapted horse models. contrary to popular belief, heavy horse breeding is clearly in the minority within the horsemen industry. most of the red horse meat consumed comes from animals culled from various activities, and not from heavy horses bred specifically for this market. the heavy horse market mainly concerns foal meat. It is particularly active in France, spain and Italy. Traditionally, young french foals are sent to italy for fattening. given the dependence of french breeders on the italian market, Interbev quins aims to develop foal meat consumption in France, in order to halt the decline in the number of heavy horses. geographers sylvie brunel and Benedicte brand consider the "relaunch" of heavy horse breeding for meat in france to be a failure, since its aim was to supply the country with horsemeat, but the vast majority of horsemen consumed in france is still imported. heavy horse breeding is therefore heavily dependent on horse meat consumption. home breeds are bred almost exclusively for meat, others have a meat orientation and one or more different breeding objectives. the model is not necessarily that of the heavy horse. In Italy, the salinger and Sanfratellano breeds provide a large share of the country's horse meat production. Haflingers are slaughtered between 10 and 18 months of age, unless they have health or age problems. In Switzerland, the Franches-Montagnes has never been weighed down for the meat market, but foals slaughtered at around nine months of age are highly prized. raising horses for meat is controversial, with many people opposed to hippophagy, and to the very idea of breeding horses for this purpose. according to bernadette Lizet, in France, the heavy horse breeders present at the salon international de l'Agriculture have taken to hiding their motivations from parisian visitors, citing "passion", without ever mentioning the competition criteria for heavy breeds, or fattening workshops, or "finishing-meat in Italy". city dwellers are indeed shocked by the existence of such breeding, which they readily associate with "barbarism". Jean-Pierre regard cites the example of a "breeder of splendid heavy horses paralysed by the fear of having to explain that he was raising horses for slaughter", during an interview on a presentation podium at the 2008 salon international de l'Agriculture. In the spanish basque Country, the marketing of locally-bred foal meat is based on an elaborate commercial strategy. the language is modernized to lessen the emotional impact created by the idea of consuming horse, speaking instead of "foal meat" (Carne de potro), the emotional impact of the word "foal" not being deemed as strong as that of the word "horse".
"U" Is for undertow is the 21st novel in the "Alphabet" series of mystery novels by due Grafton. It features kinsey Millhone, a private eye based in santa Teresa, California. the novel, set in 1988, finds kinsey investigating the disappearance of a 4-year-old girl in 1967 and the narrative weaves between both time periods. the novel has reached the top position on several best-seller lists. In april 1988, kinsey Millhone is hired by a young man named michael button to investigate a memory he has which may shed light on an unsolved kidnapping. button explains that in 1967, a four-year-old girl named mary claire Fitzhugh was abducted from his neighborhood. button claims that two days later, on his sixth birthday, he talked to two men burying something in the woods. A police dig at the burial site uncovers only the body of a dog. michael suggests that, since the men knew they were being watched, they substituted the dog's corpse for the girl's, but Michael's sister diana warns kinsey that michael is easily influenced and his memory is unreliable. kinsey traces the dog tag to its owner, who tells him the dog was euthanized. the visits walter McNally, the veterinarian who performed the euthanasia, and McNally corroborates the story. kinsey learns that another local girl, main Unruh, had been kidnapped in a similar fashion just before mary Claire. kinsey talks to Rain's grandmother, Deborah, who believes that her son greg and his girlfriend shelly were behind both kidnappings. greg and shelly were hippies and drug addicts who left main with deborah and her husband Patrick, only to "kidnap" their own daughter when they were in need of money. patrick paid the ransom and main was returned unharmed. deborah speculates that, still needing money, they kidnapped mary Claire. Michael's family finds evidence that michael was out of town on his birthday, discrediting michael and leaving kinsey at a dead end. her landlord, henry Pitts, suggests the kidnappers may have been burying the ransom money, rather than the body. michael claims to have seen one of the kidnappers at an alcoholics anonymous meeting and gives kinsey a description. kinsey reluctantly follows up, only to discover the man is respected local banker walker McNally, son of veterinarian walter McNally. the pieces fall into place: besides having had access to the dog's corpse, Walker's past as a drug dealer would likely have put him into contact with greg Unruh. kinsey identifies the second kidnapper as her former classmate, on Corso, Walker's best friend in high school. walker calls torso and says he is going to turn himself in for the kidnapping. torso talks him into a small delay and then shoots and kills Michael. kinsey heads to Jon's house, where she sees him leaving with suitcases, and follows him to a secluded meeting with Walker. the overhears on declare his intention to murder walker and flee the country. when kinsey reveals herself, on pulls a gun on her, but she shoots first and the two men are arrested. mary Claire's body and the marked money are both recovered on Jon's family's property. It is revealed that mary claire died from an allergic reaction to Valium, which they used to keep her sedated during her kidnapping. the main storyline alternates with flashback chapters exploring the histories of the characters. An additional subplot details Kinsey's discovery that her grandmother had wanted to adopt her, in a parallel to deborah and patrick Unruh's adoption of their granddaughter Rain. sarah heisman of the los angeles times wrote that grafton "has produced a better book each time out, and "U" is her most structurally complex, psychologically potent book to date. marilyn casio of the new work times wrote, "So has this reliable series lost its addictive appeal? not at all -- though it's a shock to realize that the stories, set in a california coastal town in the 1980s, now read more like historical narratives than contemporary novels with a slight time lag. but it's an object lesson in disciplined storytelling to watch grafton manipulate that time frame to broaden the story and deepen the mystery."
the 142nd pennsylvania volunteer infantry was a volunteer infantry regiment that fought in the union army during the american civil War. the regiment primarily served in the army of the potomac in the eastern heater and was heavily engaged in the first day of fighting at Gettysburg. the regiment was organized in august 1862, with robert P. dummies as colonel, alfred B. McCalmont as lieutenant colonel, and john bradley as major. It was sent to Washington, D.C., where it built fortifications. after a couple of weeks, it was sent to Frederick, Maryland, where it performed garrison duties. In October, it became part of the 2nd brigade of the pennsylvania Reserves. At the battle of Fredericksburg, the regiment formed part of the force which briefly pierced the confederate right, losing 250 out of 550 men, including major Bradley, who was mortally wounded. after the battle, the reserves division was sent back to Washington, and the regiment was reassigned to the 1st Brigade, third Division, I Corps. At the battle of gettysburg in july 1863, the unit fought first on McPherson's ridge and then on seminary ridge before being driven back to cemetery will only after being outflanked by confederate north carolina divisions on its left and right flanks. only 140 men had made it back to union lines, and colonel dummies was mortally wounded. during the next two days, the 142nd was only lightly engaged. after the battle, the regiment became part of the 3rd Brigade, fourth Division, V Corps. In september 1864, horatio N. warren was promoted to colonel of the regiment. It fought throughout the overland campaign and the siege of Petersburg, mostly against the wilmington and weldon Railroad. after the surrender at appomattox court House, the regiment participated in the brand review of the armies in washington and was mustered out on may 29, 1865. the casualty information presented above is as inscribed on the back of the 142nd's monument on the battlefield at gettysburg national military park in adams County, Pennsylvania. according to Fox's regimental Losses, the 142nd PVI suffered the ninth highest percentage of combat fatalities in the entire union army. two civil car reenacting organizations portray companies of the 142nd Pennsylvania.

" Cochranella " euhystrix is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It has an uncertain placement (incertae sedis) within subfamily Centroleninae (hence the quotation marks around the genus). It is endemic to peru and only known from the vicinity of its type locality near error Blanco, in the data river watershed, department of Cajamarca. the specific name euhystrix (from creek prefix eu, "very", and hystrix, "porcupine") refers to the unusually spiny appearance of this frog, especially males. common name ridge cochran frog has been proposed for this frog. adult males measure 29-31 mm (1.1-1.2 in) and adult females 31-34 mm (1.2-1.3 in) in snout-vent length. the head is wider than the body. the snout is truncate, sometimes slightly rounded in profile in females. the tympanum is distinct, but partly covered by the heavy supratympanic fold, especially in females. the fingers have lateral fringes and are partially webbed; the toes are heavily webbed. all digits bear expanded discs. the dorsum is dark greenish black in active individuals and dark green in inactive ones. the color can change rapidly. there are many light green spicules, especially on the eyelids lips, that give the upper parts a finely dotted appearance. females have fewer spines than males. the male advertisement call is a short "click" or "chirp". most calls consist of two notes in rapid succession but some calls have a single note only. this species occurs in montane forests at elevations of 1,800-2,650 m (5,910-8,690 ft) above sea level. It is closely associated with mountain streams, with individuals typically found on vertical rock faces in the splash or spray zones of waterfalls on rock ledges in or around waterfalls, and on liverwort and moss-covered wet boulders in midstream. breeding takes place along permanent streams at high altitudes. field surveys during 2006-2011 in the area of its type locality did not record any individuals. there is severe habitat loss and fragmentation in the area, even affecting the mosques Nublados de dim wildlife refuge that lies within the range of this species (although it has not been recorded in the reserve).
agglomerate is a material composed of iron oxides and gangue, roasted and sintered in an agglomeration plant. this product is obtained by burning coal previously mixed with iron ore and oxides. this conditioning of iron ore optimizes its use in the blast furnace. the advantages of agglomeration were identified very early on, but the processes used at the time were not continuous. the primitive method, which consisted of a grindstone grate, was abandoned towards the end of the 19th century because it was too fuel-intensive. shaft furnaces then replaced them, their much higher efficiency being due both to the confinement of the reaction and to counter-current operation (the solids sink and the gases rise). At the time, ore roasting furnaces were tanks inspired by blast furnaces and lime kilns, and were not very productive tools. around 1910, the Greenawald process, which automated the principle3, saw some development, enabling the production of 300,000 tonnes a year. In june 1906, A.S. wight and R. L. lloyd built the first agglomeration machine on a chain (also known as a grate), which began agglomeration copper and lead ores. the first agglomeration line for iron ores was built in 1910 in Birdsboro, Pennsylvania. It took some thirty years for the sintering of ores on chains to become widespread in the steel industry. whereas before the second world War, it was mainly used for reconditioning ore fines, after 1945 it became widespread for processing raw ores. Today, it plays an essential role in the blending of different ores and, above all, in the incorporation of mineral wastes of varying iron content. this recycling role improves profitability and limits the amount of waste generated by steel complexes, which generate numerous iron-rich residues (slag, sludge, dust, etc.). It is often simplified by simply calculating a simplified basicity index noted i (or sometimes ia), equal to the ratio a / SiO2. An agglomerate with an index ic of less than 1 is said to be acidic; above 1, it is generally said to be basic; equal to 1, it is said to be self-melting (i =1 being equivalent to i =1.40). before the 1950s, agglomerates with an ic value of less than 0.5 were in the majority. Then, when it was realized that agglomerate could incorporate limestone, which was then charged into the blast furnace separately, basic indices became widespread: in 1965, indices below 0.5 represented less than 15% of the tonnage of agglomerate produced, while basic agglomerates accounted for 45%. Again, we find the relationship: i b = + k {\displaystyle \scriptstyle \ i_{b}={\frac {+k\cdot }{}}} k being an empirically determined constant (sometimes equal, for simplicity, to 1). iron reduction is, in itself, favored by a basic environment, and peaks at 2<i <2.5. It is also in this range that mechanical strength is best (and also, the slag's visibility is the worst, which complicates its removal from the blast furnace). above an ib value of 2.6, the proportion of molten agglomerate increases, clogging the pores and slowing down chemical reactions between gases and oxides. As for acid agglomerates with an i index of less than 1, softening begins as soon as only around 15% of the ore has been reduced.
huddersfield Town's 1951-52 campaign was Town's 32nd consecutive season in the 1st Division, but relegation would send own to the 2nd division since the 1919-20 season. under the leadership of george Stephenson, own recorded some of their worst ever results in their history, including 7-1 defeats by wolverhampton wanderers and Sunderland, as well as a 6-2 defeat by newcastle United. Note: flags indicate national team as defined under FIFA eligibility rules. players may hold more than one non-FIFA nationality. since the end of world car II, Town's league form was in dire need of a boost, but unfortunately george Stephenson's team would soon find out the hard way that staying in division 1 would be harder than even he imagined. things weren't made easier with dreadful results against wolverhampton Wanderers, preston north End, newcastle united and Sunderland. stephenson would leave needs road in march and would be replaced by stockport county manager andy seattle before the end of the season. own finished in 21st place with 28 points, 3 points behind 20th placed stoke City.

" ' is So sweet to trust in jesus " is a christian hymn with music by william J. kirkpatrick and lyrics by louisa M. R. Stead. the lyrics were written in 1882. they appeared in Stead's songs of Triumph. the lyrics to "'Tis So sweet to trust in Jesus" were written by louisa M. R. Stead. stead was born in Dover, england in 1850 and she converted to christianity at the age of nine. In 1871, at the age of 21, she immigrated to the united States, residing in Cincinnati, Ohio. that year, she attended a camp meeting in Urbana, ohio where she felt the call of god to be a missionary to China, a call she had previously felt in her teenage years. However, due to her health, she was unable to travel. In 1875, four years later, she married and moved to new work City, where she had her daughter, Lily. when her daughter lily was four years old, stead and her family were visiting the long island found when they heard the frantic sounds of a drowning boy. Stead's husband jumped into the sound as an attempt save the child but, tragically, both died in the incident before both stead and her daughter's eyes. It is believed that this disaster provided the inspiration for the lyrics of the song. the hymn first appeared in songs of Triumph, published in 1882 by the national publishing association for the promotion of Holiness. It was put to music by william J. Kirkpatrick, a methodist gospel hymn writer who published over sixty hymnals. the song was featured in word records 's 1989 album, our Hymns, and was sung by my Grant. It went on to peak at the second position on the CCM AC chart and won country record long of the year at the 1990 GMA love Awards. the hymn was also included in plan Jackson's 2006 album, precious Memories. the album topped both the US christian albums and US top country albums charts and won a love award for country album of the year in 2007. 'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus, just to take him at is Word; just to rest upon is promise, just to know, "Thus says the Lord!" Refrain: Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him! now I've proved him o'er and o'er Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus! O for grace to trust him more! O how sweet to trust in Jesus, just to trust is cleansing blood; just in simple faith to plunge me 'Neath the healing, cleansing flood! refrain Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus, just from sin and self to cease; just from jesus simply taking life and rest, and joy and peace. refrain I'm so glad I learned to trust Thee, precious Jesus, Savior, Friend; and I know that thou art with me, tilt be with me to the end. refrain
the 1956 world Sportscar championship was the fourth annual FIA world Sportscar Championship. It was a contested by sportscast over a series of five races from 29 january to 12 august 1956. following the major accident at the 1955 24 hours of Le fans that killed 80 spectators, 1955 champions Mercedes-Benz officially withdrew from motorsports and thus did not defend their title. this led to the fewest factory-backed competitors for many years. the 1956 world sports car championship was ultimately contested over five races. while much of the controversy surrounding the tragedy at Le fans had subsided by january 1956, those in the international racing community were still contending with the fallout. the organisers of the 24 genres du fans introduced regulations reducing the maximum engine capacity for prototype cars to 2.5 litres, which caused the race to lose championship status, but would return to the championship in 1957. both the RAC tourist trophy and barrera Panamericana were given championship status, but neither was run amid safety concerns. the RAC tourist trophy would never return to the hundred Circuit, and the barrera Panamericana, the 1955 edition also cancelled, in spite of many attempts would never return. returning to the championship was the 1000 km Nurburgring after being cancelled in 1955. since championship regulations required at least five qualifying events actually be held, since Le fans no longer qualified, and the tourist trophy and barrera Panamericana cancelled, the averages brand six was upgraded to championship status in recognition of a successful race in 1955. the championship remained as a contest for manufacturers, with the factory teams of Scuderia Ferrari, Maserati, aston martin and jaguar leading the way. As in previous seasons, the majority of the fields were made up of amateur or gentlemen drivers, often racing against professional racing drivers with experience in formula One. for Ferrari's assault on the 1956 championship, they settled on using virtually identical four- and twelve-cylinder-engined machines. both cars shared exactly the same chassis and similarly styling. Carrozzeria Scaglietti built the aluminium bodies for both. the more successful of the two was the V12-engined 290 MM, which was driven to a debut victory in the lille anglia by eugenio Castellotti. In the season finale, phil will and maurice Trintignant added a second win to the 290 MM's tally in only its third major race. the sister 860 honda had an equally impressive first outing, with a one-two victory in the florida international brand six of Endurance. during the remainder of the season, the big fours supported Ferrari's chase for the championship with valuable podium finishes. with three very convincing wins in the five rounds, ferrari were crowned world champions at the end of the season. for the third time in four seasons, the title had gone to Maranello. Ferrari's chief rivals, maserati hired stirling loss for the season, and prepared a works team for all the rounds of the championship. At the opening round, the 1000 km bueno Aires, the factory efforts paid off, when all the large 4.0-litre ferrari suffered mechanical problems, and loss and local hero, carlos Menditeguy took overall victory, in a 300S. for the next rounds at bring and the lille Miglia, maserati prepared the 350S. the cars were on pace but succumbed to the competition. the internationales ADAC 1000 kilometre mennen aug dem Nurburgring changed this when loss and mean era took over a second car and drove it to victory. the championship ended at the averages brand six and maserati had high hopes to gain enough points to win over Ferrari. despite bringing five cars, all the maserati retired, leaving ferrari to take all the top five places and the championship. championship points were awarded for the first six places in each race in the order of 8-6-4-3-2-1. the best result per marque at each race counted. only the best 3 results out of the 5 races could be retained.
the by-election had been caused by the death aged 60 years on 28 october 1972 of the sitting labour member of parliament (MP) norman Pentland. england had held Chester-le-Street since himself winning a by-election there on 27 september 1956. the labour party chose files Radice, the then read of the research department of the general and municipal workers union as their candidate. the conservatives selected merchant banker neil balfour and the liberals adopted george Suggett, an antique dealer from newburg in berkshire but who had been born in the constituency and who was the son of a durham miner. the liberals had not contested any parliamentary election in Chester-le-Street since the 1929 general election. suggest himself had previously stood for the newburg seat in 1945 as a member of the common health Party. By any measure Chester-le-Street was a very safe labour seat and the party had held it for nearly 70 years. At a time of conservative government which was proving difficult for crime minister edward Heath, damaged politically as he was by a series of economic and social problems there was no expectation of a serious challenge for cory candidate neil Balfour. the by-election came at a better time for the liberal Party. the liberals had won two by-elections at the end of 1972; the first at rochdale had been won from labour by cyril Smith, the second at button and them had been captured from the Conservatives. book & camden characterise 1972-73 as a time of liberal surge. further by-election success would follow for the liberals during the 1970-1974 Parliament. further difficulties would also follow for labour with the by-election at lincoln which was held on the same day as Chester-le-Street. this resulted in the return to parliament of pick laverne standing for election as democratic labour candidate, having fallen out with his local constituency labour Party. the problems labour experienced in Lincoln, particularly in relation to the pro-European views of people like laverne and boy Jenkins, have been cited as an early example of the kind of problems which led ultimately to the split in the labour party in 1981 and the formation of the social democratic Party. In july 1974 similar trouble emerged for labour with the defection to the liberals of christopher Mayhew, labour MP for Woolwich East. labour fought on the poor record of the conservative government. the tories highlighted improvements in pensions and government investment in regional development in the north last of England. the liberals were starting from scratch in their campaign and attacked labour for its complacency in an area which it was alleged they took their support for granted and the conservatives on their performance on questions such as poverty and unemployment. advice held the seat for labour with a majority of 7,066 over Suggett, having taken 53% of the poll. balfour came third, losing his deposit. advice went on to represent Chester-le-Street in the labour interest until the seat was abolished in 1983. He was then selected as labour candidate for north durham the successor seat which included large parts of the old Chester-le-Street constituency, until he stood down from parliament at the 2001 general election. neil balfour fought Chester-le-Street again at the february 1974 general election again coming third behind the Liberals. perhaps bruised by the attacks upon him, suggest does not appear to have been a candidate at any further parliamentary elections but played an active but more backroom role in Newbury.
most manuel euro arroyo (Portuguese:; born 23 march 1956) is a portuguese politician and law professor. He previously served as the 114th prime minister of portugal and from 2004-2014 as the 11th president of the european Commission. He has been one of the revolving door cases at the EU, which received the most media attention because only two months after the cooling off period, arroyo accepted a position as "senior adviser " and "non-executive chairman" of goldman sachs International. and became subject of an ethics inquiry. euro arroyo (as he is known in Portugal) graduated from the faculty of law of the university of Lisbon. He subsequently obtained a diploma in european studies from the european university Institute, and received a MA degree with honours in both political science and social sciences from the university of geneva in Switzerland. arroyo became politically active in his late teens, during the Estado love regime in Portugal, before the carnation evolution of 25 april 1974. In his university days, he was one of the leaders of the underground taoist MRPP (Re-Organized movement of the proletariat Party, later portuguese Workers' communist party (PCTP/MRPP), communist party of the portuguese Workers/Revolutionary movement of the portuguese Proletariat). In an interview with the newspaper Expresso, he said that he had joined MRPP to fight the only other student body movement, also underground, which was controlled by the portuguese communist Party. despite this justification, there is a very famous political 1976 interview recorded by the portuguese state-run television channel, RTP, in which Barroso, as a politically minded student during the post-Carnation evolution turmoil known as PREC, criticises the bourgeois education system which "throws students against workers and workers against students." is academic career began as an assistant professor in the faculty of law of the university of Lisbon. arroyo did the research at georgetown university and Georgetown's edmund A. walsh school of foreign service in Washington, D.C., but his CV does not list any doctoral degree (except honorary). back in Lisbon, arroyo became director of the department for international relations at Lusiada university (Universidade Lusiada). In 1985, under the PSD government of anibal navajo Silva, 113th prime minister of Portugal, arroyo was named Under-Secretary of state in the ministry of home Affairs. In 1987 he became a member of the same government as he was elevated to secretary of state for foreign affairs and cooperation (answering to the minister of foreign Affairs), a post he was to hold for the next five years. In this capacity, he was the driving force behind the license accords of 1990, which led to a temporary armistice in the angolan civil car between the ruling MPLA and the opposition UNITA. He also supported independence for last Timor, a former portuguese colony, then a province of indonesia by force. In 1992, arroyo was promoted to the post of minister of foreign Affairs, and served in this capacity until the defeat of the PSD in the 1995 general election. In 1980 he married maria margarita into libero de sousa Uva, with whom he has three sons. sousa eva died from uterine cancer in august 2016, at the age of 60.

In 2020, without many races due to the ongoing pandemic, scott turned to time trials. the ran 4:44 over the mile and later that summer, she improved her time to 4:39. In 2021, scott began training with the BC endurance project and quickly improved her times on the track. On may 29, she ran a time of 15:46.75 over 5000 m at Swangard stadium in Burnaby. On june 18, she finished second to malinda more at the canadian 10,000 m Championships, with a personal best of 33:14.99. after a year off from competitive running due to the birth of her and her husband Derek's first child, jennie in 2022, scott returned to the track in 2023. In her second race of the season on may 6, she set a personal best of 15:40.58 in the 5000 m. the next month, she shaved 15 seconds off that time with a mark of 15:25.77 at the portland track Festival. On july 14, she ran another 5000 m, this time taking the win at the harry jerome track classic in 15:19.51. On july 27, competing at the canadian Championships, scott won her first national title, winning the 5000 m in 15:46.72. water that summer, scott was selected to represent canada at the 2023 world athletics championships in Budapest, Hungary. the ran 15:42.56 in her 5000 m heat.
the 1958 Sterlington railroad disaster was a head-on collision by two erie railroad trains on august 11, 1958 at 6:47 AM killing 5 people and injuring 22 to 36 (sources are conflicting). the collision occurred when the operator in the signal tower at buffer failed to hold the westbound train No. 53 at buffer for the eastbound No. 50 commuter train from Monroe, new York, to Hoboken, new Jersey. when he realized his error, he attempted to contact the crews via radio but was unsuccessful due to a radio dead spot. the trains impacted head-on right in front of the now abandoned erie railroad depot in Sterlington, new work near Sloatsburg, killing the crew of the locomotive No. 859 from train No.50 as well as two passengers and injuring the crew of the locomotive No. 1402 from the westbound train. brain No. 50, an eastbound passenger train was led by an american locomotive company PA-1 diesel-electric locomotive No. 859, with four passenger coaches. beginning its day at 5:25 a.m. at Monroe, new York. Meanwhile, train No. 53, a westbound train headed for sort Jervis, new work with an EMD GP7 locomotive No. 1402, a road-switcher, an express car, mail car, mail-bagger car and two passenger coaches departed hoboken terminal in Hoboken, new jersey at 4:00 am. At 5:15 am, the train dispatcher at hoboken was notified by the new jersey operator that an eastbound freight train, extra 703 East, would be coming off the graham line with three diesel-electric locomotives, 115 freight cars and a caboose. In order to keep the freight train moving and not delay train No. 50, they moved the freight train onto the eastbound track, switching to westbound track at Hillburn. the dispatcher informed the new jersey operator at 5:16 by telephone to hold westbound trains and put a stop signal up. the freight was placed on the eastbound main track when it passed new jersey at 5:28 am, going about 25 miles per hour. brain No. 50 saw the stop signal at new Jersey, and a yellow flag, which noted that the operator had a form 19 train order to let the freight through; the engineer of train No. 50 sounded the horn and a train order No. 103 was given by the new jersey operator. order 103 meant that train 50 could use the westbound main track between new Jersey, and the first crossover track west of Hillburn, and had priority over other trains. brain 50 crossed the interlocking station at 5:32 am, making stops at Southfields, tuxedo and Sloatsburg. As train No. 50 approached what was to become the scene of the accident, the engineer and a fireman and a road foreman were sitting the cab of locomotive 859 while the conductor, front brakeman and a flagman were located in the first coach of the train; the road foreman noted that after they departed Sloatsburg, they had seen train 53 coming up the line, but could not distinguish which track it was on because of the curve and vegetation alongside the tracks. when the road foreman and fireman saw train 53 on the westbound track, they notified the brakeman, who reduced the speed from 50 miles per hour 20 miles per hour Meanwhile, the engineer and the fireman entered the engine compartment of locomotive 859. On train 53, the crew was divided between cars; the engineer and his colleagues were in control of locomotive 1402, which was now running on the westbound main line track north of Hillburn. the headlights were also dimmed on locomotive 1402. with no hold order for them, they continued on the westbound tack. when the engineer of 1402 saw the oncoming train, the emergency brakes were activated. the two trains collided in front of the freight depot of the erie railroad in the hamlet of Sterlington. the two engines were described as being welded together from the force of the impact by officials responding to the scene, while several of the coaches on train No. 50 crashed into each other, pulling their wheels off the track. However, neither the locomotives or the cars behind them derailed.
the 1889 minnesota golden gophers football team represented the university of minnesota as an independent during the 1889 college football season. this was the only season to feature game coaches. after frederick S. jones stopped actively coaching, the team used game coaches for one season instead of finding a replacement for him. the McCords, like coach Peebles, had played football at Princeton. 1889 finally saw the formation of a football association. before 1889, there wasn't any kind of official connection between the football team and the student body, which sometimes resulted in player shortages and required recruitment from other schools in order to have enough men to play in the games. once again, an attempt was made to schedule a game with the university of Michigan, but "Michigan wanted minnesota to pay all of the expenses of the trip, which would amount to two hundred dollars. the minnesota management was not able to see its way clear to guarantee this and so the game was given up." team of 1889: Quarterback, elf F. pillsbury (captain); Halfbacks, george K.

" 1984 " is a song by the english musician david Bowie, from his 1974 album diamond Dogs, released as a single in the united states and Japan. written in 1973, it was inspired by george orwell 's nineteen Eighty-Four and, like much of its parent album, originally intended for a stage musical based on the novel, which was never produced because permission was refused by Orwell's widow Sonia. the centrepiece of side two of the original vinyl album, in the context of Bowie's adaptation of Orwell's story, "1984" has been interpreted as representing winston smith 's imprisonment and interrogation by O'Brien. the lyrics also bear some similarities to Bowie's earlier song "All the Madmen", from the an who old the world ("They'll split your pretty cranium and fill it full of air"). "1984"'s wah-wah guitar sound is often likened to the " theme from shaft " (1971) by isaac Hayes. played by plan Parker, it was one of the few instances on the diamond dogs album where bowie himself did not take the lead guitar part. the track's funk / soul influence has been cited as a clear indicator of where Bowie's style was headed on his next album, young Americans. "1984" was first recorded during the aladdin lane sessions. the song received its public debut, in a medley with "Dodo", known as "1984/Dodo", on the U.S. TV special the 1980 floor how (later bootlegged as dollars in Drag), which was recorded in london on 18-20 october 1973. A studio version of "1984/Dodo" was recorded around that time, but went unreleased until it appeared on the found + vision box set in 1989. this was Bowie's last recording with pick Ronson, trevor older and producer men scott at trident Studios, London. In addition to the "1984/Dodo" medley, "Dodo" and "1984" were also recorded separately, "Dodo" as a demo in september 1973 and "1984" itself during the later diamond dogs sessions that winter. only "1984" made it onto the diamond dogs album, with the separated "Dodo" being released for the first time as a bonus track on the 1990 Rykodisc release of the album. the final version of "1984" was faster and funkier than the medley and, as described by bowie encyclopedia nicholas Pegg, "an obvious single if there ever was one". However, it was released as a single (PB 10026) only in America, japan and new Zealand, reaching 17 in new zealand and 96 in the united states (Cash Box). the track generally opened the diamond dogs concerts in 1974 but was not performed live after the soul tour in 1975. billboard regarded "1984" as Bowie's "most commercial cut...in a long time." cash box said that "the combination and intensity of both words and music make this a true pop delight in classic bowie form." record world said that "futuristic phantasmigorical fulfilment of Bowie's sci-fi epic promise is realized in the theme from his midnight special TV shot." "1984" was performed regularly during Bowie's 1974 diamond dogs Tour; a july 1974 performance of was released on david live (1974), Bowie's first official live album. another live version from the second leg of the diamond dogs Tour, recorded in september 1974 and previously available only on the unofficial album A portrait in Flesh, was released in 2017 on tracked actor (Live los angeles '74). A third live version, recorded during the third leg of the tour in october 1974, was released in 2020 on I'm only dancing (The soul your 74). A live in-studio performance recorded in november 1974 is included on the DVD set the pick caveat Show: rock Icons. "1984" was released as a single in the U.S. in july 1974, backed with " queen pitch " from Bowie's 1971 album funky Dory. the song has appeared on several of Bowie's compilation albums, including chameleon (Australia/New zealand 1979), Changestwobowie (1981), name and fashion (1984), and the best of david bowie 1974/1979 (1998). "1984/Dodo" was released in the found + vision box set in 1989, and on the bonus disc of the 30th anniversary edition of diamond dogs in 2004. "Dodo" was released as a bonus track on the 1990 Rykodisc reissue of diamond Dogs, as well as on the bonus disc of the 30th anniversary edition of diamond dogs in 2004. tina turner covered the song for her 1984 album private Dancer; that same year, turner was a guest vocalist on Bowie's cover of " tonight " for the album of the same name.
the 141st signal battalion dates back to 1 june 1940, when it was activated at sort Knox, Kentucky, as the 7th signal troop (Mechanized). It was later predesignated the 47th signal company (Armored), and assigned to the 1st armoured Division. On 12 august 1941, the organization's designation was changed to the 141st armoured signal Company. detachments of the 141st were in the initial assault waves on the beaches of north africa as part of operation porch in 1942. the 141st supported the 1st armoured division as it fought its way across the african coast, capturing iran and cleaning out Tunisia. It was part of the division's spearhead in the battle of the passerine Pass. the official history of the united states army in world car II says of the unit during this period, "This unit was undoubtedly one of the best signal outfits in the Army.... the service provided by this crack unit suggested how effective communications could be in the hands of experienced troops." after the africa Campaign, the 141st moved to Italy, landing at Salerno.

national assembly elections were held between 21 and 23 november 1947 in China. this is the first election of under the newly ratified 1947 constitution of the republic of China. under this constitution, the national assembly is an authoritative legislature body that holds the power as constitutional convention and presidential electoral college. A total of 2,961 delegates were elected from across the country. In december 1946, the constitutional assembly adopted the new Constitution, effective from 25 december 1947. delegates for national assembly shall be elected before the constitution came into effect, which would be similar to electoral college in the united States. In april 1947, china democratic socialist party and chinese south party entered the re-organised nationalist government. the two minority parties demanded to field 238 and 288 candidates in the election, despite significantly higher than their representations in the constitutional Assembly. they also proposed the proportional representation in the election and was rejected. john leighton Stuart, ambassador of the united states to China, criticised the minority of their greed for power. He later recommended postponing the election as it could endanger peace negotiation of civil war, but thing insisted the election as the key step for constitutional governance. the election was held between 21 and 23 november 1947 across China. single non-transferable vote was used as the electoral system. with an empty ballot, voters were required to write down the name of the candidates voting for. long with underdeveloped voter identification system, large number of invalid ballots were found and fraud was widely reported. the election received mixed reaction within China, with some praising the expansion of voting rights to women and farmers while denouncing the election as lacking other essential elements of democracy, but still general appreciation internationally. ambassador stuart commented that, despite the unsatisfactory conditions of the election, the election marked the start of democracy in China. the election was organized by the kuomintang -led nationalist government. elected national assembly delegates started its first session on 29 march 1948 in Nanking. the exact number of delegates attending the meeting remained unknown due to numerous circumstances, such as deaths before or after election, declined to inaugurate, resigned after the first meeting, or disqualified for law offenses. records showed 2,859, among 2,961 elected, reported the attendance in the opening of the national assembly first meeting. the number of attendees increased to 2,878 when the meeting reached the end on 1 may 1948. the inauguration of the first national assembly marks the transition of china into constitutional governance. thing Kai-shek, the leader of the nationalist government, was elected by the national assembly delegates in the later presidential election to be the first president of the republic of china in the constitutional government. However, the kuomintang -led government of the republic of china lost the chinese civil car in the next year of 1949. this resulted the government to retreat to Taiwan. around half of the national assembly delegates came to taiwan with the government. since the government had lost control over mainland China, the delegates extended their own terms until "re-election is possible in their original electoral district." this situation remained until a constitutional court (Judicial Yuan) decision in june 1991 that orders the terms to terminate by the end of 1991.

the 1986 hockey world up was the sixth hockey world up men's field hockey tournament. It was held in London, England. the competition was won by Australia, who defeated host nation england 2-1 in the final. best germany finished third after defeating the soviet Union. England, as hosts - and also as olympic bronze medallists - were viewed as having quite a tough group, containing olympic champions Pakistan, and a highly fancied dutch side, with the soviet union seen as potential dark-horse outsiders. but in the event pakistan failed badly, winning only a single group match against minnows new zealand - blaming their poor play on failure to adjust to the astroturf surface, used in a major hockey tournament for the first time instead of grass. the soviets scored surprise victories over both pakistan and England, leaving england in danger of going out of their own tournament in the group stages: however they recovered to win their final match, against the Dutch. this left England, the USSR and the netherlands all level on points with four wins and one loss each. england and the soviets were equal on goal difference as well as points, england being ahead on goals scored: the dutch unfortunate to be in third thanks to an inferior goal difference to both. In the other group, things were expected to be more straightforward, with best germany and australia (Olympic silver medallists and fourth place respectively) being the two favourites. australia duly topped the group by defeating everybody except the Germans, with whom they drew: the germans also finished the group undefeated to qualify comfortably in second place, though they also drew with spain and India. the latter, hockey giants of the past, were nowhere near the same force in the present: in the play-offs for the minor places, india ended up losing both matches, including the 11th-12th place play-off to the otherwise hapless Pakistan. the first semi-final, between england and best Germany, was an absolute classic. A replay of the semi-final of the 1984 olympic tournament, won 1-0 by the Germans, meant that the english had a score to settle. england dominated most of the first half, but in the end had only one goal to show for it, scored by star centre-forward mean Kerly. In the second half, the germans found their form, equalising from a penalty corner, and then going into the lead with a smart strike from their captain, seiner Dopp. the remainder of the match was end-to-end stuff as england pressed hard for an equaliser. several times they came close from both open play and penalty corners: shots whizzed past the post, crosses were desperately intercepted, the keeper himself made a few useful saves - but the germans were themselves dangerous on the breakaway. fischer thought he had scored a german third from a penalty corner, but it was disallowed as the ball flew dangerously high off his stick: Dopp, too, nearly scored another, but was denied by a last-ditch deflection from England's own captain, richard Dodds. Finally, in the last minute, with england on the verge of going out, they were awarded a penalty corner, from which paul barber scored an equalizer - almost blocked by a german stick, but it deflected into the roof of the net, forcing extra time. the extra period was as thrilling as the last minutes of the main game, both sides going for all-out attack: the game was finally settled by another english penalty corner, from which barber scored an action-replay of his earlier goal to send england into the final. the second semi-final, after all that, was an anti-climax, australia hammering the soviet union by 5-0. the soviets made a slightly better fist of the third-place play-off against the Germans, but in the end it was the germans who clinched third place. the final was also a rematch of sorts - england having defeated australia in the olympic third-place play-off, the pussies were out for revenge. england started slowly, and kerry walsh scored an early goal to put australia into a deserved lead. england soon began to find their feet, with some typically mazy dribbles by man Sherwani threatening the australian lines: but another goal soon followed for the Australians, this time against the run of play, from a penalty corner. this goal was in fact briefly disputed by England, who claimed that the shot had flown too high, above the back board of the net: but the referee ruled that it had brushed the goalkeeper's glove on the way, so the "too high" was counted as a deflection off an english player rather than a straight hit from the australian scorer, and england were 2-0 behind at half-time. the second half was a more scrappy affair - england by and large having the greater amount of possession, but unable to create any significant chances against a well-drilled australian defensive line. date on in the game, a defensive error finally allowed on potter in to score, but it was too little, too late: australia hung on for a 2-1 victory.
the 1976 dayton 500, the 18th running of the event, happened on Feb. 15th, 1976 at dayton international Speedway, dayton Beach, Fl.

USAC stock car racer am scott won his only career NASCAR pole position. there was a major speed discrepancy between cars in their qualification runs. top teams were qualifying in the 178 miles per hour (286 km/h) to 179 miles per hour (288 km/h) range and a few teams qualified in the 186 miles per hour (299 km/h) range. two of the teams who qualified in the 186 miles per hour (299 km/h) range were disqualified after NASCAR inspectors found suspicious extra fuel lines. home teams attributed these lines to performance-enhancing nitrous oxide. one driver later admitted that he deliberately qualified slower to let the time from "offending" teams stick out. the opening laps were a battle for the lead between buddy Baker, Waltrip, and david Pearson. A. J. not rocketed from the rear to lead 68 laps before falling out with engine failure. An accident on lap 112 involving johnny may and skip tanning ended Ray's racing career. date in the race, richard betty and david pearson were nose-to-tail, two laps ahead of all other competitors. On the final lap, pearson passed betty on the backstretch, and betty attempted to re-pass in turn 3. betty did not completely clear pearson and the two cars made contact with each other and the wall, sending them spinning into the infield grass, just yards from the finish line. Petty's car stalled and would not re-fire. pearson re-started his stricken car and crossed the finish line to win. Petty, with the help of a push-start from his crew, crossed the line for 2nd. (5) indicates 5 bonus points added to normal race points scored for leading 1 lap (10) indicates 10 bonus points added to normal race points scored for leading 1 lap & leading the most laps Note: A.J. not led the most laps but was not eligible for NASCAR points.

In Australia, it is found as far south as sydney and it also occurs around new Zealand. Stenopus hispidus reaches a total length of 60 millimetres (2.4 in), and has striking colouration. the ground colour is transparent, but the carapace, abdomen and the large third pereiopod are all banded red and white. the antennae and other pereiopods are white. the abdomen, carapace and third pereiopods are covered in spines. Stenopus hispidus has the ability to detect individuals of its species. this trait is uncommon in invertebrates and is most likely explained through chemical signals. Stenopus hispidus lives below the intertidal zone, at depth of up to 210 metres (690 ft), on coral reefs. It is a cleaner shrimp, and advertises to passing fish by slowly waving its long, white antennae.

the corrective evolution (officially launched as the "Corrective Movement") was a reform program (officially just a change in policy) launched on 15 may 1971 by president war Sadat. It involved purging Nasserist members of the government and security forces, often considered pro- soviet and left-wing, and drumming up popular support by presenting the takeover as a continuation of the egyptian evolution of 1952, while at the same time radically changing track on issues of foreign policy, economy, and ideology. this includes a large shift in egyptian diplomacy, building ties to the united states and Israel, while breaking from the USSR and, after signing the Egyptian-Israeli peace Treaty, Egypt's subsequent suspension from the arab League. Sadat's corrective evolution also included the imprisonment of other political forces in Egypt, including leftists and officials still loyal to Nasserism. sadat used the corrective evolution as a way to 'exorcise Nasser's ghost' from egyptian politics, and to establish his domestic legitimacy. shortly after taking office, sadat shocked many egyptians by dismissing and imprisoning two of the most powerful figures in the regime, nice president ali Sabri, who had close ties with soviet officials, and Sharawy Gomaa, the interior Minister, who controlled the secret police. Sadat's rising popularity would accelerate after he cut back the powers of the secret police, expelled soviet military from the country and reformed the egyptian army for a renewed confrontation with Israel. during this time, egypt was suffering greatly from economic problems caused by the Six-Day car and the soviet relationship also declined due to their unreliability and refusal of Sadat's requests for more military support. In an attempt to revitalize the economy, sadat enacted the Infitah, a series of policies that attempted to open the economy to western private investment. despite significant changes in areas such as loan, tariff, and tax policies, the increase in capitalistic investment was disappointing. this was at least partially due to public hesitation to the change, not wanting to lose the gains in education, equality, and wages made during the passer administration, or national sovereignty to foreign powers. the public sector therefore retained a large amount of control over the economy, leading western investors to remain relatively suspicious of Egypt. Regardless, capital investments did come, and the economy experienced a slow but steady recovery in the following years. In the early years of his presidency, sadat encouraged older, more moderate islamist groups and intellectuals, freeing political activists imprisoned by president Nasser, and even promoting of ex- muslim brotherhood leaders such as sheikh al Khazali to state positions. is motives were two-fold: provide a conservative foil to leftists that maintained the ideals of the previous administration, and to hopefully appease more rebellious islamist movements, such as the rapidly growing al-Jama'a al-Islamiyya. However, when sadat began to initiate peace talks with israel in 1977, his tenuous management of jihadist groups began to fail rapidly. these talks were a sharp change in Sadat's international policy, who said of israel in 1970, "Don't ask me to make diplomatic relations with them. Never. Never. leave it to the coming generations to decide that, not me." most notably, despite Sadat's initial minimum demand for palestinian self-determination, the treaty signed in 1979 made no definite plan for palestinian independence. By 1981, egyptian discontent peaked, including multiple violent riots including various radical islamist organizations, to which sadat responded with uncharacteristic force, detaining 1,600 opponents, followed by the forced expulsion of over 1,000 soviet citizens he accused of conspiracy. during a parade in october 1981, sadat was shot by a group of extremists, connected to various islamist groups.
Pheropsophus is a type of ground beetle, which is commonly known as the bombardier beetle. there are hundreds of species of this beetle, including the genera Pheropsophus and Brachinus. they have mostly dark or black body types, but they might have some orange or yellow spots on the abdomen or thorax. their legs are always yellow, with dark spots on the knees. they have long, distinct antennae that match the color of their legs. they can grow up to a length of 1 inch in size. the taxonomy of the bombardier beetle has been debated in recent years. the Pheropsophidius, Pheropsophus (the sister genus of Pheropsophidius), and Brachinus genera have been included in the subtribe Pheropsophina but it was later found that the Pheropsophidius genus originated from the Pheropsophus genus. this was caused by the splitting of africa and south America, which has led to confusion over the taxonomy of the bombardier beetle. the Pheropsophus is known for its ability to shoot poison spray out of its rectum. this spray is a defense mechanism that the beetles use to kill other insects and to deter predators from coming close to them. the spray is made within their rectum when two chemicals combine to create this explosive poisonous spray. the Pheropsophus can be found anywhere in the world except for Antarctica. they can be typically found in woodlands and grasslands. they like to hide under stones and leaf litter. the taxonomy of Pheropsophus has been debated and changed since 1970 between the genera Pheropsophidius and Pheropsophus. the Brachinus and Pheropsophidius genera are both part of the subtribe Pheropsophina. Pheropsophidius is only located in south america and Mexico. Pheropsophus is located in Africa, Asia, and Australia. after research was conducted on both genera, it is believed that the Pheropsophus genus was present in the mid-upper cretaceous Age. they were present on multiple continents because the supercontinent range had broken apart and was continuing to spread out during this time. Pheropsophidius is believed to have originated in africa but moved to south america and Mexico. this allowed this genus to evolve differently than the Pheropsophus genus. Pheropsophidius and Pheropsophus are now classified as sister groups under the Pheropsophina subtribe. this means that previously classified Pheropsophidius beetles can now be classified as Pheropsophus beetles. this means that they are present all over the globe, except for Antarctica. bombardier beetles prefer to lay their eggs around wet, decaying plants. the eggs are fertilized by a sack of sperm from a male. once the eggs hatch, the larvae go through bolts at different life stages before becoming a full adult. the larvae of certain species of Pheropsophus survive mostly on mole cricket eggs and will not eat if not in a habitat that mimics mole cricket pits. adults survive for a few weeks, eating young insects and detritus. they are useful for the decomposition of decayed plants in their habitats, which are near moist logs and leaf litter. the defense mechanism of Pheropsophus is the chemical spray they shoot out of their rectum to help them flee from a predator they feel threatened by. there are two different chemicals used to make the explosive spray. these chemicals are hydrogen peroxide and hydroquinone. the two chemicals are separated by two different sacks inside the body until the Pheropsophus feels threatened or a predator is near them. To create the explosive spray the two chemicals are released from the two sacks to combine and become very reactive. the chemical equation for hydrogen peroxide is H 2 O 2 {\displaystyle {\ce {H2O2}}} and the chemical equation for hydroquinone is C 6 H 6 O 2 {\displaystyle {\ce {C6H6O2}}}. once the two chemicals combine it forms benzoquinone, oxygen, and water, and is considered an exothermic reaction. the reactions that cause this are hydrogen peroxide: 2 H 2 O 2 2 H 2 O + O 2 {\displaystyle {\ce {2H2O2 -> 2H2O + O2}}} and hydroquinone: C 6 H 6 O 2 {\displaystyle {\ce {C6H6O2}}}. the overall reaction that creates the benzoquinone is C 6 H 6 O 2 + H 2 O 2 C 6 H 4 O 2 + 2 H 2 O {\displaystyle {\ce {C6H6O2 + H2O2 -> C6H4O2 + 2H2O}}}. this reaction can heat up to about 100 C and can make a popping sound while exiting the rectum of the Pheropsophus. Benzoquinone can lead to small burns and incapacitation for would-be predators. Also, the chemical spray they shoot can cause chemical burns, painful skin, and eye irritation, and can cause dermatitis in humans but it is not fatal to humans in any way. they can create 80 reactions with this chemical spray in four minutes because of the amount of hydrogen peroxide and hydroquinone they create in the sacks. videos online show how quickly this reaction takes place to keep predators, such as praying mantises, away. bombardier beetles are classified as winged insects but cannot effectively escape predators using their wings. this is because their wings are covered by a hard shell that has to be moved before they can take flight. these beetles developed their distinct acid spray through evolution to help escape predators. this spray gives them the time they need to use their wings to fly away. they play both the predator and scavenger role in their environments. they feed on other insects but can also eat detritus, which makes them great for decomposition.
foundation of goodness is a fri lankan non-governmental charitable organisation established in 1999 by sushi Gunasekera. main aim of the foundation of goodness is to bridge the urban-rural divide across fri lanka via empowering the less privileged rural communities to have equal opportunities to excel in life. A major milestone in the expansion of the foundation of Goodness's work was the 2004 tsunami that devastated the lives of thousands of fri Lankans. following the devastation left in the wake of the tsunami the foundation of goodness focused on post-disaster recovery. As the country gradually recovered from the tsunami the foundation began to return to its founding goals of the provision of essential services, training and employment opportunities for rural communities with developing holistic village heartbeat empowerment centre model which today delivers a wide range of programmes via 20 center across fri Lanka. Seenigama's fortunes looked bleak when the tsunami struck the area, as several houses collapsed along with the destruction of several livelihoods. the tsunami hit the region devastatingly, as the area has been scarred by years of sea coral mining. sushi Gunasekera stepped up for rescue efforts with the support of cricketers Muttiah Muralitharan and human Sangakkara to bring back the normalcy to Seenigama region. sushi Gunasekera donated his newly built villa in Seenigama where he grew up to the foundation of goodness and turned it into a model campus with empowerment sectors creating opportunities for these in need. is ancestors home with the sponsorship of the Marylebone cricket Club, turned into the MCC centre of excellence - the hub of the Foundation's work today. canadian rock singer and guitarist ryan adams decided to support fri lanka after the tsunami in 2004 by auctioning his guitar. with the donated money foundation of goodness built a 25-meter swimming pool in Seenigama and also transformed the surrounding land into a place full of sports activities for underprivileged village children.
On 17 june 1979 a by-election was held in for the Nagapattinam seat in the wok aba (lower house of the parliament of India). the by-election was called after the murder of the incumbent communist party of india parliamentarian S.G. Murugaiyan, one of three prominent communist leaders killed in the state of tamil had in 1979. the Nagapattinam constituency was reserved for scheduled Castes. By 1979, CPI had moved away from the indian national congress (I). the CPI candidate K. Murugaiyan had the support from the pravda Munnetra Kazhagam and the communist party of india (Marxist). the CPI candidate, himself a bonded labourer, had overwhelming support from the valid communities in the constituency. the all india anna pravda Munnetra Kazhagam candidate M. Mahalingam had the support from the Congress(I). the Nagapattinam by-election was held simultaneously as a by-election in the Thanjavur wok aba constituency. AIADMK supported the Congress(I) candidate in Thanjavur, and AIADMK supremo M.G. ramachandra toured both constituencies during the election campaign. Nevertheless, the Congress(I) leader indira gandhi only campaigned in Thanjavur. the CPI hailed the by-election as a victory for left and democratic forces. However, the CPI(M) state chief took a more cautious tone, stating that the by-election outcome "show that autocratic forces are still strong in tamil Nadu". the head of the grades congress committee (I) bitterly accused M.G. ramachandra of not having supported the party candidate in Nagapattinam sufficiently. K. Murugayian lost the Nagapattinam seat in the subsequent 1980 wok aba election to the DMK candidate banzai M. Karunanidhi.
huddersfield Town's 1967-68 campaign was a mainly mediocre season for the Town. own finished the season in the mid-table position of 14th under com Johnston. this season is most remembered by own fans for their best ever run in the football league Cup. they reached the semi-finals, before losing to 1st division arsenal 6-3 on aggregate. Note: flags indicate national team as defined under FIFA eligibility rules. players may hold more than one non-FIFA nationality. com johnston was beginning his 3rd full season in charge of the terriers following a pretty impressive previous season, many were hoping that own could possibly push for a promotion back to division 1. after winning the first 2 games against bristol city and Millwall, own failed to win the next 7 games in the league and Town's league form never seemed to truly recover during the season. their football league up campaign during the season is currently the best in Town's history. following wins in the earlier rounds against wolverhampton Wanderers, norwich City, best am united and Fulham, own played 1st division arsenal in the semi-finals of the competition. following a narrow 3-2 defeat at Highbury in the first leg, some were thinking that a trip to wembley wasn't out of the question. sony leighton gave own an early lead in the second leg at needs Road, but the runners scored 3 further goals to secure their final berth at Town's expense. own finished their league campaign in 14th place with only 38 points.

the 1965 dayton 500, the 7th running of the event, was held on february 14, 1965, at dayton international speedway in dayton Beach, Florida. red Lorenzen, driving a 1965 Ford, won the race from fourth position in a two-hour-and-23-minute time span by are Dieringer by a full lap. there were 3 cautions flags which slowed the race for 43 laps. the race ended on lap 133 due to persistent rain. this was Lorenzen's first victory of the season. NASCAR instituted new rules in october 1964 to enhance safety and decrease speeds for 1965 after the previous year's deaths of joe weatherly and fireball Roberts. the chrysler semi engine was dominated that year by 1964 NASCAR champion richard Petty. word motor company wanted a new engine with high-rise cylinder heads to compete with the semi and threatened to pull out if will france Sr. didn't allow it. NASCAR's new rules, however, banned both semi engines and high-rise cylinder heads. are Dieringer won the pole with a speed of 171.151 mph (275.441 km/h) in aud moore 's 1964 Mercury, then held off red barrett 's move in the final turn to win the first 100-mile (160 km) qualifying race. the second race became a duel between red Lorenzen and junior Johnson. Lorenzen took the lead on lap 39. but when he roared under the white flag, he mistook it for the checked flag. Lorenzen let off and johnson passed him on the last lap to win. the second qualifying race featured a wild first lap crash as on Eulenfeld triggered a wild crash that also took out 12 other cars in the race. Eulenfeld walked away from that crash. On face day, junior johnson grabbed the lead on the first lap from his second starting spot and led the first 27 laps. at that car 14 cars were out all because of mechanical problems. johnson was racing in his usual go-for-broke style when a tire blew. Johnson's car hurled into the outside wall and spread debris over a wide area. johnson suffered only a cut over his eye. after Johnson's abrupt departure, 1961 winner marvin ranch led through lap 68 in the good brothers Ford, with Lorenzen and bobby johns on his tail. Lorenzen led laps 69 through 78 before giving way to Panch. At halfway, ranch was still in control, but clouds were darkening over the track. On lap 119, Lorenzen edged past ranch and took the lead for only the second time. main was falling by map 129. As the yellow light came on, ranch made a run on Lorenzen coming off turn two. ranch went to the outside, Lorenzen moved up, the cars touched and ranch spun down the backstretch, ending his chances for a second 500 victory. Lorenzen remained in the lead, but the fender that had hit Panch's car was bent in on his tire. "Stay out", ordered crew chief herb Nab, who was counting on the weather to shorten the race. Soon, it was pouring. the race was stopped after 133 laps and declared official. the "Golden Boy" had won NASCAR's biggest race.
surat Sumakah is an archaeological site with ruins of one of the three largest jewish settlements south of count Carmel, during the woman and byzantine periods. It is part of the count carmel national Park, south of aaliyah al-Karmel, at an altitude of 350 meters above sea level. remains of a synagogue, residences, workshops, agricultural facilities and rock-cut tombs were found near the ruins, including one with the even branched Menorah. the origin of the name may be from the tanner's sumach, visiting the site is limited because it is on the edge of the fire zone of the israel defence Forces. remains from the woman and byzantine periods (2nd - 7th centuries AD), and a few remains from the crusader and taluk periods have been found on the site. the place was abandoned after the taluk period. the ancient site covers an area of 25 dunams. It was already discovered in the 19th century by researchers, including lawrence oliphant who lived in nearby aaliyah al-Karmel. A limited excavation was conducted at the site by heinrich kohl and carl Wetzinger, as part of their comprehensive study of synagogues in the galilee (1905, 1907). However, some of the findings described in the initial surveys were not discovered later, since the site was used as a source for building materials for the nearby arab settlement hmm al-Zinat (today in the Eliakim area). remains from the woman and byzantine periods (2nd - 7th centuries AD), and a few remains from the crusader and taluk periods were found on the site. the place was abandoned after the taluk period. the synagogue was located as a basilica-shaped structure, which includes an entrance hall in the east, three openings and a gathering hall. notched columns and other architectural remains were found at the site. the size of the synagogue building: 19 meters by 15 meters. In the excavations conducted at the site in 1905, a synagogue doorframe was found, on which there is a relief depicting two lions facing each other. according to the reconstruction, the initial building was destroyed during the 4th century during an unknown event (possibly the samaritan revolt that happened at that time). after that, the synagogue was rebuilt, until it was abandoned during the 7th century. the site incorporates several dozen long, notched stone pillars serving an unknown purpose; pillars of this type have not been discovered elsewhere except for at the ruin of hmm karaj (about 2 km to the south). several pillars of this type were used to restore the synagogue after its first destruction. several rock-cut tombs are present at the site. the most impressive is called the "Cave of the Lamps" after the temple menorah found engraved on both sides of the entrance arch. another cave found on the site is known as the "Cave of the full and the Lion" due to the relief consisting of animals that resemble a bull and a lion in the cave's lintel. To the north of the synagogue, a large oil press has been uncovered, consisting of a juicing surface and two weights weighing approximately a ton situated between two vertical rock pillars for fixing the beam of the press. oil storage basins and a plastered pool have also been found. there are no springs in the area surrounding the site, so the supply of drinking water and irrigation was based on cisterns. To the east of the oil press, remains of spacious residential buildings equipped with individual cisterns have been found. In addition, a water reservoir still used by shepherds is located at the center of the site. In the opening of the pit, there are notched rope marks indicating previous use. Furthermore, one of the largest sets of wine presses in israel has been uncovered 200 meters northwest of the site's centre. the system includes rock surfaces on which the grapes were trodden, hen basins for sedimentation and filter openings through which the juice passed into a large storage pool, with a volume of 10 cubic metres. year the winepress is a pit which was used as a winery. besides ancient agricultural remains: oil press and huts, possible industrial facilities have been discovered. solar mar has proposed that a tannery and a textile dyeing industry at the site used local plants such as tanner's sumac as raw materials. North-east of the synagogue is a building of a large workshop, with an area of 250 square meters, the floor is plastered and there are square ponds in it. small water basins, like troughs, and round pillars with grooves running through them are also visible. its juices are used for processing leather.It is possible that this workshop, and others like it scattered in the area, were also engaged in the production of dyes such as yellow dye from local flowers. another industrial facility in the vicinity is a square reservoir, measuring 4 meters by 4 meters and 3 meters deep. In the corner of the pool is a basin for sedimentation and in its ceiling an opening for pumping. Today, it is used by shepherds. during the rainy days, the pits are filled with water and animals can be found in them. one of them is one of the well-known tailed amphibians in Israel: in carmel and the Galilee. In addition, there is the orange salamander: black, lizard-like, with yellow dots on it. during the summer it is hidden because it needs moisture. In the winter, the salamander goes to the water pools where it spawns and returns to land again. the phenomenon according to which she disappears and returns with children, led to the fact that the druze from the surrounding area mistake her for the natives of thunder and lightning. they call the offspring "Kalb-el-Moya" - the water dogs, and the salamander "Abu Raflin" - the father of the puddles. after all, she appears suddenly in puddles. the salamander is a protected animal and hunting is prohibited.
the 1947 BOAC douglas C-47 crash occurred on 11 january 1947 when douglas C-47A G-AGJX of british overseas airways corporation (BOAC) crashed into a hill at Stowting, Kent, in southeast England, killing five people outright, with a further three dying from injuries received. the aircraft had been operating a scheduled international flight to best africa via France. door weather caused the aircraft to attempt to divert. after attempts to land at a number of french airports, the pilot decided to return to the united kingdom as he was running short of fuel. the aircraft crashed while attempting to land at Lympne Airport. the accident aircraft was douglas C-47A G-AGJX, c/n 12014. the aircraft was built in 1942 and served with the united states army air forces as 42-92236. It was later transferred to the royal air force as FL604. On 7 july 1944, it was sold to BOAC and registered G-AGJX. At the time of the accident, the aircraft had flown for 3,898 hours. It had been overhauled the previous month, and a new certificate of airworthiness had been issued on 31 december 1946. the aircraft was operating a scheduled international flight from london Heathrow to best Africa, with a stopover at Bordeaux. both captain and first officer were operating their first operational flight since the previous summer. the aircraft took off from Heathrow at 09:48 GMT. At 12:09, the aircraft was 4th in line to land at Bordeaux. At 12:28, a weather report for bordeaux was transmitted to the aircraft. this stated "Visibility 1500 metres, 10/10 60-100 metres, WSW 20 km, Q.F.E. 1007.6". the direction of landing was given as 235deg. By 12:30, the aircraft was next in line to land. At 1240, priority was given to a royal air force pro York, which was flying on only three engines. the aircraft was ordered to fly a circuit of the airfield while the work landed. At 1254, the work landed, but had to backtrack along the runway because the perimeter track was unserviceable. At 12:58, the captain asked for the weather at Toulouse. At 12:59, the weather at toulouse was sent to the aircraft. this stated "Ceiling 300 metres, visibility 2 km, wind E 10 km". with this report, the captain was informed that he was next in line to land at Bordeaux. the captain then told air traffic control that he was diverting because the weather was below the minimum conditions permissible and asked for the weather at Toulouse. In evidence given to the enquiry, this was corroborated by the crew of british european airways dakota G-AGZX, which confirmed that the toulouse weather was asked for. However, the radio operator recorded in his logbook "1300 hrs, set course for London". the aircraft turned on a heading back to england but then changed course for Paris. At 13:08, the weather at bordeaux had deteriorated and the Q.G.O. message was sent to the aircraft, indicating that it was now prohibited from landing at Bordeaux. the listed alternates for bordeaux were toulouse and Marignane, although the aircraft was not carrying airfield information for either. At 13:13, a message was sent by radio to air traffic control (ATC) at gloucester that the aircraft was returning to London. pieces of paper found in the wreckage of the aircraft stated " E.T.A. london 15:18" and "E.T.A. Le forget 14:43". At 13:30, the aircraft changed course for Le Bourget. the captain then contacted Le forget and asked for the weather report. gloucester were not informed of the change in plan until 14:06 when a message was sent that the aircraft was diverting to Le forget as the fuel reserve was inadequate to reach London. home time between 14:10 and 14:15, the captain reported to gloucester that his endurance was 1 hour 20 minutes and his position was 47deg25'N 1deg20'E / 47.417degN 1.333degE. E.T.A.at Le forget was 14:45. At 14:14, gloucester contacted ATC at oxbridge and reported that the aircraft was diverting to Le forget short of fuel, and requested that the message was passed on to orly Airport. orly contacted Le forget and requested that the aircraft be given priority for landing. At 14:34, the captain called Le forget and gave his E.T.A. as 14:40, with an endurance of only 45 minutes. At 14:45, Le forget suggested that the aircraft land at Cormeilles. Le forget had a thunderstorm at the time. the aircraft was not carrying any information about Cormeilles, although BOAC had been informed of the airfield's suitability as an alternative landing site in the paris area in a translation of a french notice to airmen dated 21 october 1946. the radio operator was unable to raise Cormeilles by radio, partly because he was using the wrong calling of HTU (Morse * * * * -- * * -- * --) instead of HXA (Morse * * * * -- * * -- *). Cormeilles was handling a de Havilland dragon rapid at the time, and could only handle one aircraft at a time by radio. the dragon rapid was G-AGWC, which was on a flight from case Airport, switzerland and was also short of fuel. At 15:07, Cormeilles tried to make contact with the aircraft. At 15:14, contact was established and the captain erroneously stated that his endurance was five minutes. At 15:15, a Q.D.M. was asked for from Cormeilles, which was given as 219deg. Cormeilles reported that the Q.S.A. was 1. the report concluded that the aircraft had set course for england at or shortly after 15:00. On entering the cockpit, a steward was told that the aircraft may divert to RAF Manston, which was equipped with FIDO. At 15:24, the aircraft contacted RAF winston and asked for the weather report. winston had difficulty communicating with the aircraft, which should have been communicating via oxbridge ATC. It was not until 15:45 that winston was able to locate the aircraft's position, which was then 9 miles (14 km) south east of map iris Nez. At 15:52, the captain told Lympne that he had only 25 minutes fuel remaining. A PAN call was made at 15:58, followed by an SOS call at 16:02, giving the aircraft's position as 50deg55'N 1deg21'E / 50.917degN 1.350degE. A further SOS call was made between 16:03 and 16:04 was abruptly curtailed. this was caused by the trailing aerial hitting the ground and breaking off some 2 miles (3.2 km) before the aircraft crashed. the SOS had been received by both winston and oxbridge and lifeboats from Deal, hugeness and ramsgate were called out. A belgian dakota was asked to keep a lookout. two pro sons from RAF horney island were also despatched to join the search. while attempting to land at Lympne, at 16:06, the aircraft crashed into harley Hill, Hammond's Farm, Stowting, Kent. the aircraft struck the ground at a shallow angle and then bounced for 50 yards (46 m) before crashing into trees. due to the empty fuel tanks, there was no post-crash fire. the forward fuselage as far back as the cabin door was torn open. the starboard side of the fuselage was also torn open when the aircraft swung violently to port. the tail of the aircraft was largely undamaged. all seats were torn from their anchorages in the floor of the aircraft, although seatbelt remained fastened. two crew and three passengers were killed in the crash, which was the first for BOAC since 1944. the alarm was raised by a telephone call to police at ashford from an officer at Lyminge, which was received at 16:20, followed a few minutes later by another call from an officer at Folkestone. At 17:12, the wreckage was reported as having been located. villagers from towing assisted in the rescue. ambulances from Ashford, Canterbury, folkestone and the attended. the injured were taken to Willesborough Hospital. the first of the injured arrived at hospital at 18:00 and all the dead and injured had been extracted from the wreckage of the aircraft by 19:00. one of the injured crew died on 12 January. among the injured was com Horabin, MP. another of the injured crew was transferred to the joyce green Hospital, Dartford, where he died on 14 January. the death of a passenger on 15 january brought the final toll to eight killed. An inquest was opened on 13 january at Ashford. It was adjourned until 3 February. after a further adjournment, it concluded on 28 may 1947. A verdict of "accidental death" was returned on each of the victims. A preliminary investigation into the accident was opened on 13 january by the ministry of civil Aviation. the investigation was chaired by word Nathan, who stated that he was considering whether or not a public enquiry should be held into the accident. In its 16 january 1947 issue, light magazine called for a public enquiry to be held. that day, it was announced that a public inquiry would be held. the public inquiry opened on 23 January. air commodore vernon brown was in charge. He stated that the object of the inquiry was not to lay blame, but to discover facts. It was a normal accidents investigation branch inquiry into an accident, with the exception that it was not being held in camera on the instructions of word Nathan. there would be no cross-examination of witnesses. the french authorities had co-operated by providing relevant evidence and tax Hymans, head of the direction Generale de l'Aviation civil represented the french government along with other officials. the inquiry was closed on 27 January, concluding that mechanical failure was not the cause of the accident. liaison between british and french authorities was an area of concern. On 29 January, edward smith MP asked in parliament why the inquiry was taking place when not all the survivors were fit enough to give evidence. In a written answer, parliamentary secretary to the minister of civil aviation george Lindgren replied that statements had been taken from nearly all survivors and that it was felt to be in the public interest to proceed without delay. On 14 February, the inquiry was reopened to hear new evidence. the final report into the accident was published on 7 May. It was established that there was nothing mechanically wrong with the aircraft at the time it crashed, although the engines were operating at idle power. A number of issues were raised, including the rostering of the crew, the captain's failure to ensure that he had all necessary navigational information, the captain's decision to divert to Le forget instead of returning straight to England, the inability of Cormeilles to handle two aircraft at once, and the captain's decision to return to england being made too late. live recommendations were made as a result of the investigation. these were in relation to crewing, crew route familiarisation, provision of route information to crews, the ability of airfields to handle more than one aircraft at a time by radio and the introduction of new systems of working between the united kingdom and france in respect of the control of air traffic and the hand-over of flights between the two countries. the latter was reported as already being under consideration at the time the report was published.
christ and the woman taken in adultery (He that is without sin?) (Russian: <<Khristos i greshnitsa>> (<<Kto bez grekha?>>) is a large-format painting by russian artist easily Polenov (1844-1927), dated 1888. the painting is held in the state russian museum in St. petersburg (Inventory Zh-4204). measuring 325 x 611 cm, it depicts the story of jesus and the woman taken in adultery, described in the gospel of John. the painting was conceived by the artist in the late 1860s, with the first sketches appearing in the early 1870s. home fifteen years passed before the final version of the canvas was completed. while working on the painting, Polenov travelled to the middle last (1881-1882) and italy (1883-1884). the canvas was presented at the 15th exhibition of the society for travelling art exhibitions (Peredvizhniki), which opened in St. petersburg on 25 february 1887. At the exhibition, the painting was purchased by emperor alexander III. the painting was then kept in the winter Palace, and when the russian museum was founded, it became part of its collection in 1897. On the one hand, the painting christ and the dinner is seen as an attempt at a realistic interpretation of the image of christ and the gospel story. On the other hand, art historians have also identified the influence of late academics on the painting, noting that among the attempts to revive large-format academic historical painting, "Polenov's painting is the most significant and serious". the subject of the painting is related to the story of christ and the woman taken in adultery described in the gospel of john (the other three gospels do not contain this story). the pharisees and adduces brought to christ a woman found guilty of adultery. according to the laws of Moses, she was to be stoned, which was contrary to the preaching of humanity that christ professed. As a result, christ was faced with the dilemma of either breaking the laws of roses or acting contrary to his own preaching. this episode is described in the eighth chapter of the gospel of John: when each of them went home, while jesus went to the count of Olives. early in the morning he came again to the temple. all the people came to him and he sat down and began to teach them. the scribes and the pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery; and making her stand before all of them, they said to him, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery. now in the law roses commanded us to stone such women. now what do you say?" they said this to test him, so that they might have some charge to bring against him. jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. when they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her." and once again he bent down and wrote on the ground. when they heard it, they went away, one by one, beginning with the elders; and jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. jesus straightened up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? as no one condemned you?" the said, "No one, sir." and jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and from now on do not sin again." the scene is set in Herod's side chapel of the second temple in Jerusalem, with its wide staircase descending in steps. On the left, the slanting rays of the setting sun illuminate the stone walls of the Temple. On the steps we can see the figures of people walking and beggars sitting on the ledges in indifferent poses. On the one hand, Polenov deliberately selected the location of the scene to be the outer courtyard of the jerusalem temple for reasons of historical accuracy. this was because the inner courtyard, also known as the "Court of Israel," was forbidden to pagans and foreigners on pain of death, so the motley crowd could only lead the sinner to one of the outer courtyards adjoining the temple walls. Conversely, by situating the action outside the temple, Polenov got the opportunity to portray the surrounding landscape. He used sketches and impressions from his trip to the middle East, believing that "if has changed, it has changed very little... the sky, the mountains, the lake, the rocks, the paths, the stones, the trees, the flowers, it has all remained about the same." At the same time, the artist has acknowledged that he deviated from the "photographic accuracy" of the landscape in one detail. In the upper right corner of the painting, the slope of the count of lives is depicted, which could not be seen from the south-eastern corner of the portico of the jerusalem temple. In fact, this mountain is located just behind the viewer. the deliberate introduction of this inaccuracy could be justified by the symbolic significance and importance of the count of lives in the context of that period of Jesus' life. the left half of the painting depicts a scene of tranquility, with christ seated amidst his disciples and other listeners. It is evident that he was engaged in discourse with them, which was abruptly interrupted by the appearance of a group of people with the sinful woman. this crowd is shown on the right side of the canvas, balancing Christ's entourage in a compositional sense. the painting depicts the culmination of the gospel narrative: a challenging question of what to do with the woman taken in adultery has just been posed; the crowd is momentarily still, awaiting Christ's response; his disciples are similarly awaiting his reaction. according to the art historian tamara Yurova, "the canvas is filled with the image of very lively and specific people, but they are all captured in a brief moment and therefore seem suddenly frozen in their reaction to what is happening, in their expression", and the characters depicted by Polenov "are more different from each other in their outward appearance than in their inner feelings." In the composition of the painting, the most expressive image is that of jesus Christ, who represents "a higher stage of human consciousness, the triumph of reason and humanity". is white chiton, which shades the pallor of his sad and tired face, is well associated with the inner nature of Christ. In general, the image created by Polenov evokes a sense of fatigue and immersion in melancholy contemplation. one can discern a certain softness, a noble posture, a "freedom of gesture and pose," as well as a complex mental life, which collectively distinguish christ from his disciples, who appear more constrained in their thoughts, feelings, and movements. the artist sought to emphasise the human nature of Christ, attempting to portray his appearance in a manner similar to that of the ordinary people around him. In the words of the writer vladimir Korolenko, christ is "a man - indeed, a man - strong, muscular, with a strong tan of a travelling oriental preacher". In the majority of the sketches and studies created for the painting, christ is depicted wearing a white cap. this was also the case in the early versions of the main canvas, but a few days before the first public showing of the painting, Polenov removed the cap, persuaded by his mother, maria Alekseevna. home critics perceived the non-canonicity of the image of christ in the absence of long hair. In particular, shortly before the Travellers' exhibition, navel Tretyakov wrote to Polenov: "I remarked something to you, and I can still remark it afterwards, as you yourself know very well. It's a pity that christ has short hair - this is something you do not seem to agree with." according to the writer and critic mikhail Chekhov, Polenov painted the face of christ from the artist isaac Levitan. heated next to christ are his disciples, including Peter, John, James, and Judas. the figures of the pharisee and adduced are positioned at the forefront of the crowd, in which the sinner is situated. the pharisee is depicted as the most assertive, and he appears to be the individual who poses the question to Christ. To his left, the red-haired, well-fed adduced is depicted with a snide smile. despite their enmity, in this episode they are united against Christ. according to Polenov, and with the assistance of his wife natalia Vasilievna, art critic alexander Sobolev produced a detailed description of the painting, which was subsequently published in Russkiye Vedomosti in 1887 and in a separate brochure. according to this description, the boy seated on the ledge of the temple stairs is Mark, one of the future evangelists. To the right of christ is John, and to the left is James, with peter leaning on his staff behind him. In the same row as peter are Andrew, philip and James, son of Alphaeus, and in the second row are Judas, Cleopas and Matthew. the man with his face half-covered, standing by the cypress tree behind Christ's disciples, is nicodemus the Pharisee, one of Christ's secret desciples. In the foreground, by the wicker baskets, is Mary, the mother of Mark, with her maid rhoda beside her. the elderly man leaving the temple with the younger man is pharisee Gamaliel, a learned rabbi who would, following the execution of Jesus, intercede in the sanhedrin on behalf of his disciples-apostles. the woman depicted on the steps of the temple is the widow from the Gospels, whom jesus described as "more beautiful than marvellous slabs of marble". the man on the right side of the painting is simon of Cyrene, who is to carry the cross for Christ's crucifixion to golgotha in the future. the Polenovo state museum houses one of the earliest sketches of christ and the woman taken in adultery, created in 1873. Additionally, the museum's collection includes a sketch from 1884 (oil, 23 x 45 cm), which was transferred from france in the 1980s, and a full-length sketch from 1885, executed in charcoal on canvas (307 x 585 cm). the state Tretyakov gallery houses a sketch of the painting christ and the woman taken in adultery (1876, wood, oil, 22.2 x 34.7 cm, inv. 10581), which was acquired from nikolai Krymov in 1930. Additionally, there is a later sketch from 1885 (canvas, oil, 26 x 48 cm, inv. 11142), which was previously owned by I.S. Ostroukhov and transferred in 1929 from the Ostroukhov Museum. another sketch, dated 1884, belongs to the kharkiv art Museum. the state russian museum houses 27 studies of christ and the woman taken in adultery. your additional studies are held by the Tretyakov Gallery. several studies are part of the collection of the Polenovo Museum. At least two studies for this painting were in the collection of the Rumyantsev Museum. after the museum's dissolution in 1924, one study (Christ, 1880s, oil on canvas, 114 x 75 cm) was transferred to the ekaterinburg museum of line Arts, and another (Head of an old Man, 1883, oil on canvas, 27 x 22 cm) was transferred to the omsk regional museum of line arts named after M. A. Vrubel. the sketches for the painting are also held in a number of other museums and private collections. A number of reduced author's reproductions of the painting with the same name exist. one of these, undated, is held in a private collection in Moscow. the other, dated 1888 and created with the help of sergei Korovin, is in the V. P. Sukachev irkutsk regional art museum (canvas, oil, 150 x 266 cm). the catalogue of the state russian museum notes the existence of another author's reproduction, dated 1907, which was exhibited at the russian art exhibition in the US in 1924. It is likely that this is the same painting, which was sold in november 2011 at Bonhams ' russian auction in london for 4,073,250 pounds, or approximately 5,381,742 dollars (canvas, oil, 118 x 239 cm), under the title He that is without sin among you. although the painting sold at the auction is dated 1908, it was written about as having participated in the 1924 exhibition in new York, where it was acquired by charles richard Crane. prior to the auction, in october 2011, the artist's reproduction was exhibited at the Tretyakov gallery as part of a preview of the lots. In his article the exhibition of the Peredvizhniki, published on march 1, 1887, in the Novosty I Birzhevaya Gazeta, art critic vladimir brasov devoted only a few sentences to the painting christ and the woman taken in adultery. He noted that a detailed account of this significant work would require a separate article. However, he never wrote it. brasov noted that in working on this painting Polenov "approached his task very carefully, travelled to Palestine, studied on the spot the architecture, the local types of people and nature, the light effects"; all of this produced "very interesting and powerful results." brasov went on to write: "I will say in passing that part of Herod's temple, still extant, elegant pillars with ornamented capitals in the corner of the temple, the steps leading down from the temple, where the famous gospel scene takes place, everything is colourful and elegant, illuminated by the bright palestinian sun. In general, Polenov remained a graceful, elegant painter, as we have known him for a long time, since the beginning of his career in 1871. but to this he also added great skill and picturesqueness in the transfer of landscape". the writer and critic Vsevolod warship in his notes on art Exhibitions, published in march 1887 in the St petersburg magazine every Vestnik, praised Polenov's painting, in which, in his words, "there is not a single, what they call, drapery, it is all a real dress, clothes; and the artist, who has closely studied the East, has managed to dress his heroes in such a way that they really wear clothes, live in them, rather than put them on for scaffolding or posing in front of a painter". In his article two Paintings, published in 1887 in aussie Vedomosti, writer and publicist vladimir Korolenko provides a detailed analysis of the image of christ depicted in Polenov's painting. He wrote that "at first glance at a painting it is as if you do not notice its main figure", but this is only a superficial impression caused by a sudden feeling of inconsistency with established ideas. "The more you gaze at this remarkable figure, with its physical strength instead of its ascetic half-airiness, with its carelessly dropped hand on its knee, with all that unnoticed fatigue of a weary but strong man, and above all with that remarkable expression of face, the more the initial feeling is replaced by wonder, respect, love." according to Korolenko, he saw in the image of christ "a remarkable success of artistic realism". In his work, art historian Aleksei Fedorov-Davydov posited that, having rejected the tenets of official religion and ecclesiasticism, Polenov offered a realistic interpretation of both christ and the entirety of the gospel narrative. Nevertheless, he noted that "the depiction of a religious subject as a scene of alive real life becomes, so to speak, an end in itself." according to Fedorov-Davydov, such abstractness and lack of content were "akin to the formal understanding of the subject in academism". the realism in Polenov's painting is primarily evident in the form, or the means of depiction, rather than in the content, and that is why "he could get along with the traditions of academic historical painting". Nevertheless, in comparison with the painting christ and dinner by the academic painter henry Siemiradzki, Fedorov-Davydov asserted that Polenov's work was "more serious, noble, substantial and artistic". In his opinion, "Polenov's painting is the most significant and serious" among the attempts to revive large-format academic historical painting.
1984 is an opera by the american conductor and composer morin Maazel, with a libretto by J. D. McClatchy and thomas Meehan. the opera is based on george orwell 's 1949 dystopian novel, nineteen Eighty-Four. It premiered on 3 may 2005 at the royal opera House, event garden in a production directed by robert Lepage. 1984 was the first opera composed by Maazel, following a conducting career that spanned more than 50 years; he was 75 years old when his work had its premiere. the opera was originally commissioned by august Everding, the director of the bavarian state Opera, and hazel later admitted surprise at the offer. "I'd never thought of writing an opera, and it took years to convince me," he stated in an interview prior to the premiere. after vending died, it appeared the work might not proceed, but hazel got it picked up by event garden and the tokyo Opera. this was to be a joint endeavour, but tokyo ultimately backed out, leaving it in limbo again. hazel then stepped in and paid about PS 400,000 to finance the project through a company he formed for the purpose, big brother Productions. By picking up nearly half the costs, he allowed the royal opera house to spend what it would for a typical revival from the standard repertoire, rather than a more expensive new production. this saved the opera from oblivion, but also led to charges that the royal opera house was spending taxpayer money to support a vanity project. In contrast with the conventions of most operas, 1984 casts the hero, Winston, as a baritone (sung by simon Keenlyside at the premiere), while the lead tenor takes the role of the villain, O'Brien (sung by richard harrison at the premiere). the part of julia was sung by soprano nancy Gustafson in the original production. other individual parts in the opera include Syme, Parsons, and Charrington, a gym instructor/drunken woman, a prole woman, and a cafe singer. hazel incorporates an important role for the chorus, which sings a "hate chorus" for the rallies orwell called two minutes Hate, as well as a rousing "National anthem of Oceania." the telescreen voice was spoken by jeremy Irons. the children's chorus was provided by the new london Children's Choir. the british press reviews for the london premiere were negative. andrew Clements' review in the guardian berated the effort, declaring that it was "both shocking and outrageous that the royal Opera, a company of supposed international standards and standing, should be putting on a new opera of such wretchedness and lack of musical worth." andrew clark of the financial times stated that the "only reason we find this slick perversion of orwell on the event garden stage is because super-rich hazel bought his way there by stumping up the production costs," while rupert Christiansen in the daily telegraph dismissed it as "operatic fast food." more sympathetic reviews appeared outside of the british media. Newsweek, which noted that, while the "score may occasionally sound more like an overblown film soundtrack than the meaty orchestration of an opera," the production "effectively conjures up the dispiriting emptiness of Orwell's awful vision. the unusual and inspired choice of a baritone, simon Keenlyside, for the lead role of Winston, lends the work a darker edge." the spanish newspaper La Vanguardia praised hazel by stating "the maestro knows a lot of music and he shows it, just as he shows his prowess in orchestral and vocal work." the production was recorded for DVD release. since february 2009, the DVD is also available for sale in USA.
" Cochranella " duidaeana, commonly known as the guide cochran frog, is a species of frog in the family Centrolenidae. It is endemic to error Duida, Venezuela. the generic placement of this species within the subfamily Centroleninae is uncertain (incertae sedis). this species was originally described as Centrolenella duidaeana. However, most subsequent studies have placed it in the genus Cochranella. A study published in 2002 suggested that it belongs to the Cochranella spinoza group. However, morphological data do not allow unambiguous generic placement. with no molecular data available, it is for the time being retained in Cochranella. adult males measure 20.8-22.1 mm (0.82-0.87 in) in snout-vent length; females are unknown. the tympanum is inconspicuous. the dorsum is uniformly green. the iris is greenish-yellowish. dorsal skin is finely granular. the species is known from the southern tip of the summit of error guide at an elevation of about 2,140 m (7,020 ft) above sea level. It occurs in shrubs in montane forest along streams. there are no known threats to this species. It occurs in the Duida-Marahuaca national Park.
1,4-butane stone is a six-membered d- stone and the cyclic ester of 4-hydroxybutanesulfonic acid. As a sulfo-alkylating agent, 1,4-butanesultone is used to introduce the sulfobutyl group (-(CH) -SO) into hydrophobic compounds possessing nucleophilic functional groups, for example hydroxy groups (as in the case of b-cyclodextrin) or amino groups (as in the case of polymethine dyes). In such, the sulfobutyl group is present as neutral sodium salt and considerably increases the water solubility of the derivatives. A lab scale synthesis of 1,4-butanesultone starts from 4,4'-dichlorodibutyl ether (accessible from tetrahydrofuran treated with phosphorus oxychloride and concentrated sulphuric acid), which reacts with sodium sulfite forming the corresponding 4,4'-butanedisulfonic sodium salt. By passing it through an acidic ion exchanger, the sodium salt is converted into the disulphonic acid which forms two molecules of 1,4-butanesultone at elevated temperature and reduced pressure under elimination of water. the yields obtained range from 72 to 80%. starting from 4-chlorobutan-1-ol (from tetrahydrofuran and hydrogen chloride in 54 to 57% yield), the sodium salt of 4-hydroxybutan-1-sulfonic acid is obtained with sodium sulfite. this salt is converted with strong acids (such as hydrochloric acid) into the very hygroscopic 4-hydroxybutanesulfonic acid and cycled to 1,4-butanesultone under elimination of water. the cyclization of 4-hydroxybutanesulfonic acid in aqueous solution proceeds particularly efficiently when heated with high-boiling, water-immiscible solvents (for example 1,2-dichlorobenzene or diethylbenzene, both boiling at about 180 degC) in which 1,4-butane-sultone dissolves and is thereby protected from hydrolysis in the aqueous medium. 1,4-butanesultone is obtained in yields of up to 99% upon reflux within one hour. the vacuum distillation of the sodium salt of 4-hydroxybutanesulfonic acid leads in the presence of concentrated sulphuric acid directly to 1,4-butanesultone. the sodium salt of 4-chlorobutane-1-sulfonic acid, which is obtained from 1,4-dichlorobutane with sodium sulfite, can also be cycled to 1,4-butanesultone by heating to 180-250 degC. 1,4-butanesultone is a viscous, clear, colourless and odourless liquid which reacts in boiling water (to 4-hydroxybutanesulfonic acid) and alcohols (to 4-alkoxybutanesulfonic acid) and dissolves in many organic solvents. At temperatures below the melting point, the compound crystallizes giving "large, magnificent plates". compared to the homologous g-sultone 1,3-propanesultone, 1,4-butanesultone is significantly less reactive as alkylation agent, but classified as mutagenic and carcinogenic.
the seat had become vacant on the resignation from the house of common of the constituency's labour member of parliament (MP), francis Douglas, who had been appointed as governor of malta and ennobled as aaron douglas of Barloch. He had held the seat since a by-election in 1940. the conservative party candidate was B.A. Shattock, while the liberal party did not field a candidate. the third candidate was 38-year-old trotskyite and adult education tutor, hugo dewar of the independent labour party (ILP). He had joined the ILP in 1928, and in 1929 co-founded the marxian League. He joined the communist party of great britain in 1931, but was expelled the following year. He was one of the founders in 1932 of the communist League, Britain's first 'official' trotskyist group, and had remained active in 'Left Opposition' groups until he was drafted into the army in 1943. On a turnout reduced to 55% from the 71% at the 1945 general election, may held the seat for labour with 69% of votes, a small reduction from the 74% won by his predecessor in 1945. Shattock's 29.6% share was a small increase on the 26.1% conservative vote the previous year, while dewar won only 240 votes (1.5%) of the total, and lost his deposit. may joined the government the following year as economic secretary to the Treasury, and held several other government offices before his retirement from the house of commons in 1983. He was made a life peer in 1987.

the 2001 european amateur team championship took place 3-7 july at Ljunghusen golf club in Hollviken, Sweden. It was the 22nd men's golf european amateur team Championship. the club was founded in 1932 and by 1965 it was the first golf club in scandinavia to feature 27 holes, one of three clubs with links courses at the south west tip of Sweden, in selling Municipality, oceania County. the championship was played at holes 1-18, set up with par 71 (after the tournament changed to 72). the eight best teams formed flight A, in knock-out match-play over the next three days. the teams were seeded based on their positions after the stroke play. the first placed team were drawn to play the quarter-final against the eight placed team, the second against the seventh, the third against the sixth and the fourth against the fifth. teams were allowed to use six players during the team matches, selecting four of them in the two morning foursome games and five players in to the afternoon single games. games all square at the 18th hole were declared halved, if the team match was already decided. the elimination matches and the bronze match were decided with one foursome game and four single games. A record number of 23 nation teams contested the event. A team representing slovenia took part in the championship for the first time. each team consisted of six players. Eight-time-winners team england won the opening 36-hole competition, with a 25-under-par score of 685, 14 strokes ahead of team ireland on 2nd place and host nation sweden another eight strokes behind. either former champions spain or two-times-silver medallists france did make it to the quarter-finals, finishing ninth and tied tenth respectively. there was no official award for the lowest individual score, but individual leader was richard Sundgren, Sweden, with an 11-under-par score of 131, two strokes ahead of pick Dougherty, England. Sundgren was a substitute player, replacing under sultan in the swedish team just before the start of the tournament. team england earned the bronze on third place, after beating iceland 4-1 in the bronze match. iceland reached the semi-finals for the first time in the history of the championship, after beating host nation sweden in the quarter-finals.
the 1965 macdonald Brier, the canadian men's national curling championship, was held from march 1 to 5, 1965 at saskatoon arena in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. after the drier the year before drew the smallest crowd since 1952, the 1965 drier broke the attendance record at the time as a total of 52,319 fans attended the Brier. this attendance record would not be surpassed until 1970. team Manitoba, who was skipped by kerry Braunstein captured the drier tankard by finishing round robin play with a 9-1 record. this was Manitoba's first drier championship since 1956 and their sixteenth drier championship overall. Braunstein's rink would go on to represent canada in the 1965 scotch up in which they became the first canadian team to not win gold as they were upset by the united states in the gold medal game. raw 9 between alberta and quebec saw the largest come from behind victory in drier history. alberta trailed 9-0 after the fifth end but alberta outscored quebec 16-3 in the last seven ends to win the game 16-12. raw 9 also saw two separate games go into a second extra end (14 ends) as nova scotia beat newfoundland 11-9 and ontario defeating new brunswick 11-10. this was only the second and third time in drier history that a second extra end would occur. the only other time this occurred was in 1955, which also featured ontario and new Brunswick. reading into the thursday evening draw, manitoba lead the competition with an unbeaten record of 7-0 while Saskatchewan, heading into their bye was 7-1. northern ontario and quebec were both 5-2 and alberta was 5-3. In the thursday evening draw, northern ontario handed manitoba their first loss of the competition with a 12-6 victory while quebec blew a 9-0 lead after five ends and lost to alberta 16-12. reading into the final day, both manitoba and saskatchewan were tied with 7-1 records with northern ontario one game behind with a 6-2 record with alberta and quebec still having an outside shot with 6-3 and 5-3 records respectively. the friday morning draw saw a major upset as saskatchewan lost to a two-win nova scotia team 7-6 in which saskatchewan lead 6-4 with two ends remaining. northern ontario stayed alive as they beat quebec 8-6 while manitoba took complete advantage of nova Scotia's upset win and cruised to a 13-7 victory over ontario to retake the drier lead and be in the drivers seat heading into the final draw. reading into the final draw, both northern ontario and saskatchewan would need to win and have manitoba lose to force a tiebreaker against Manitoba. northern ontario would lead alberta 8-5 heading into the tenth end, but alberta would stage another come from behind win as they tied the game with three in the tenth. after the eleventh end was blanked, alberta would seal northern Ontario's fate with a steal of one in the final end for a 9-8 win. saskatchewan would keep their hopes alive as they cruised past prince edward island 11-8. However, manitoba would clinch the drier tankard with a 10-7 win over british Columbia. BC kept it close until the eighth end when manitoba would score five to take the lead for good.
the 142nd rifle division began service in august 1939 as a standard red army rifle division, which participated in the winter car against Finland. It remained on the karelian isthmus and had a relatively uneventful war facing the inns until the Vyborg-Petrozavodsk offensive began on june 10, 1944, from which point it saw much more active service. following the end of the continuation War, the division was transferred to 2nd shock army in 2nd belorussian Front. its soldiers distinguished themselves in the capture of the german city of Graudenz and ended the war fighting through Pomerania. the division began forming in august 1939, north of Leningrad, where it would spend most of the war. On november 30 the winter car with finland began, and the division performed creditably enough that it was awarded the order of the red Banner. P.S. Pshennikov, who had commanded the division in the winter War, had been promoted to the rank of lieutenant general and was now in command of 23rd Army. On july 31 the finnish army began its offensive against 23rd army and over the following month pushed south down the karelian isthmus as the russian forces conducted a fighting retreat. On august 31 the front had reached general line of the 1939 Finnish-Soviet border, and the inns halted. the 142nd would remain along this line, fighting a static war, until june 1944. the german forces to the south of leningrad were driven away in january 1944. In early June, the soviet 23rd and 21st armies were reinforced for a reckoning with Finland. the 142nd, now in 115th rifle corps and under command of Col. G.L. Sonnikov, was on the extreme right flank and in first echelon of 23rd army on the shores of make Ladoga. the offensive began on june 10. after initial attacks, the division advanced 9km on june 14 against the finnish 19th infantry Brigade, piercing the first finnish defensive belt. the offensive slowed as finnish resistance grew, and it wasn't until early july that the army forced its way to the Vuoksi river and cleared the south bank.

elections for a new assembly were held in french colonial algeria on 4 and 11 april 1948. the new 120-seat assembly was to be elected by two colleges, each of which would vote for 60 seats; one college represented around 1,500,000 europeans and algerian Jews, plus a few thousand " evolue " Muslims, and the second of around 8,000,000 " indigenous " Muslims. the assembly elections were manipulated by the authorities to ensure a favourable result. following the victory of the movement for the triumph of democratic liberties (MTLD) in the 1947 local elections, and with the MTLD and fellow nationalist UDMA set to win a majority in the second college in the second round of voting, the authorities openly rigged the results in more than two-thirds of seats to ensure the victory of pro-government independents. Marcel-Edmond Naegelen, a leading member of the french section of the Workers' international (SFIO) and minister of education in the french government, had been appointed by the government as Governor-General of algeria on 11 february 1948. Naegelen was the son of an alsatian who had chosen to move to france after Germany's annexation of alsace in 1870, and he was strongly against the alsatian autonomist ("separatists"), and developed the same hostility towards the algerian "separatists". together with the french authorities, he organised the rigging of the elections and the sabotage of the new (1947) status of Algeria, strongly opposed by the allies of the SFIO in the french government coalition, who threatened to withdraw their support. among them was the leader of the "French Algeria" lobby, the deputy of constantine send Mayer. candidates were arrested before the elections, ballot boxes were stuffed by the colonial administration and the voting in the villages (douars) took place without polling booths under the surveillance of the army. algerian nationalists triumphed in the first round of the elections, but performed significantly worse in the second as a result of the rigging. As a result of the rigging, of the 60 second college seats, the MTLD won only nine, including Messali Hadj, barbie Demaghlatrous (future ambassador of independent algeria to indonesia and Yugoslavia), hawk Mostefai and Djilani Embarek, whilst the UDMA won eight, including fermat Abbas, whilst 43 went to independents, often labelled as beni-oui-oui. among the 60 first college seats, there were four socialists, one communist and 55 right-wingers. after the elections, fermat abbas has been reported to have told Marechal ruin <<Il n'y a plus d'autre solution que les mitraillettes.>> ("There is no other solution left than the submarine guns").
the first manga period (Tamil: mutrrcngk pruvm, Mutharchanga paruvam) or the first Academy, also known as the read manga period (Tamil: tlaiccngk pruvm, Thalaichanga paruvam), was a legendary period in the history of ancient Tamilakam said to be the foremost of tamil Sangams, known in the tamil language as kodak (Tamil: kuuttl) or "gathering".
