Distichlis palmeri is an obligate emergent (it has aerenchyma) perennial rhizomatous dioecious halophytic C4 grass in the Poacea (Gramineae) family. D. palmeri is a saltwater marsh grass endemic to the tidal marshes of the northern part of The Gulf of California and Islands section of the Sonoran Desert. D. palmeri is not drought tolerant. It does withstand surface drying between supra tidal events because roots extend downward to more than 1 meter (3 feet) where coastal substrata is still moist.

Culms (stalks) are generally rigid and upright to about 60 cm (2 feet) and have short internodes. Longer culms become recumbent (lay down) developing young vertical culms from the nodes. These young culms may root. Acicular to linear leaves are upright and positioned alternate along the culm at nodes. Leaves excrete salts through specialized salt glands that are a component of D. palmeri leaf anatomy. These excreted surface salts are wicked away by breezes. Insects of the grasshopper family visit the plant. When D. palmer is maintained in a greenhouse, it is susceptible to aphid infestation.

Anemophilous flowers emerge late winter. At anthesis, males liberate light chartreuse colored pollen in breezes. Female flowers are panicles of alternate spikelets that present lavender colored styles and stigmas. Kernels (seeds) are mature in early spring. Each panicle produces 20-30 mature caryopses. Kernels are similar to those of farro in color and size. Kernels of Distichlis palmeri have an indigenous history as a wild harvest grain (Nipa) consumed by the Cocopah. Nipa grain has size, nutritional value and flavor qualities similar to other cropped grains.

In the last four decades, Nipa grain production through saline agriculture (agriculture that uses saline resources to farm halophytic cash crops) of D. palmeri has been the subject of domestication studies. In addition to research studies working to domesticate D. palmeri, D. palmeri has been used to manage farm drainage and proposed as a constructive use plant in remediation of saline and biosaline wastewaters and land.

Distichlis palmeri has character to thrive within effects of our changing climate; in open hot full sun on saline irrigation in subtropic zones, hence, it can be cropped along warming and rising coastlines. and is an active candidate for (bio)saline agriculture and cash crop development of Nipa grain, making it a prospective new crop for the 21st century.

Marsh Run is a tributary of Coles Creek in Luzerne County and Columbia County, in Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is approximately  long and flows through Fairmount Township in Luzerne County and Sugarloaf Township in Columbia County. The stream's watershed has an area of . Wild trout reproduce throughout the stream. It is named after marshes, which can be found in the vicinity of the stream. Alluvium and Wisconsinian Outwash area also present, as is bedrock consisting of sandstone and shale. The stream has one unnamed tributary.

Course
Marsh Run begins in a small pond in western Fairmount Township, Luzerne County. It flows west for several tenths of a mile, passing through a wetland and crossing Hynick Road. Almost immediately after crossing Hynick Road, the stream exits Luzerne County. Upon exiting Luzerne County, it enters Sugarloaf Township, Columbia County. The stream continues flowing west, receiving an unnamed tributary from the right after a short distance. A short distance further downstream, it reaches its confluence with Coles Creek.

Marsh Run joins Coles Creek  upstream of its mouth.

Geography and geology
The elevation near the mouth of Marsh Run is  above sea level. The elevation of the stream's source is between  above sea level. The stream is relatively small and has marshes along it.

For most of its length, Marsh Run flows over a glacial till known as the Wisconsinian Till. Most of the till in the vicinity of the stream is expected to be more than  thick. However, the stream's lower reaches are on alluvium and Wisconsinan Outwash. The former contains stratified sand, silt, and gravel, while the latter contains stratified sand and gravel. Bedrock consisting of sandstone and shale is also present in the vicinity of the stream. A wetland is located in its upper reaches.

Watershed and biology
The watershed of Marsh Run has an area of . The stream is entirely in the United States Geological Survey quadrangle of Red Rock. It is located in the northeastern portion of Sugarloaf Township.

Wild trout naturally reproduce in Marsh Run throughout between its headwaters and its mouth.

History and etymology
Marsh Run was entered into the Geographic Names Information System on August 2, 1979. Its identifier in the Geographic Names Information System is 1180455.

Marsh Run is named for the fact that marshes are located along it.

Admiral (abbreviated as ADML) is the highest active rank of the Royal Australian Navy and was created as a direct equivalent of the British naval rank of admiral. It is a four-star rank. Since 1968, generally the only time the rank is held is when the Chief of the Defence Force is a navy officer.

Admiral is a higher rank than vice admiral, but is a lower rank than admiral of the fleet. Admiral is the equivalent of air chief marshal in the Royal Australian Air Force and general in the Australian Army.

Australian admirals
The following have held the rank of admiral in the Royal Australian Navy:

Rank insignia and personal flag

The current ranks are rear admiral, vice admiral, admiral and admiral of the fleet, also known as flag ranks because admirals, known as flag officers, are entitled to fly a personal flag. An admiral of the fleet flies a national flag at the masthead, while an admiral flies a St George's cross (red cross on white). Vice admirals and rear admirals fly a St George's cross with one or two red discs in the hoist, respectively. These command flags are exactly the same as in the Royal Navy, except for the admiral of the fleet, who flies the Union Flag.

The rank of admiral itself is shown in its sleeve lace by a broad band with three narrower bands. Since the mid-1990s, the insignia of a Royal Australian Navy admiral is the Crown of St. Edward above a crossed sword and baton, above four silver stars, above the word AUSTRALIA.  Note that unlike other Commonwealth countries, the sword is a naval cutlass, with a  closed handle. The stars have eight points, like the Royal Navy insignia and unlike the four-pointed Order of the Bath stars used by the army.

Prior to 1995, the RAN shoulder board was identical to the UK shoulder board. The UK shoulder board changed in 2001.

James Richardson was a lawyer, a business and civic leader, and a member of the Massachusetts Senate from Dedham, Massachusetts.

Career
Richarson was the law partner of Fisher Ames. He was also the president of the Dedham Mutual Fire Insurance Company and a founder of the Norfolk and Bristol Turnpike. 

He served in the Massachusetts Senate. He once gave an address to a crowd that included President Andrew Jackson.

Social
He was an incorporation of St. Paul's Church and a member of a number of Dedham's civic and social organizations.

After a prayer service to celebrate Dedham's Bicentennial, 600 people then processed to a pavilion erected to host a dinner on the land of John Bullard a few rods to the west. Richardson presided at this dinner, assisted by John Endicott, George Bird, Abner Ellis, Theron Metcalf, and Thomas Barrows as Vice Presidents.

A blessing was asked by the Rev. John White of the West Parish and thanks returned by the Rev. Dr. Jonathan Homer of Newton. After the cloth was removed, Richardson gave a number of toasts, interspersed with music from the band.

Louisa May Alcott
Louisa May Alcott's mother, Abba, ran an "intelligence office" to help the destitute find employment. When Richardson came to Abba seeking a companion for his frail sister who could also help out with some light housekeeping, Alcott volunteered to serve in the house filled with book, music, artwork, and good company on Highland Avenue. Alcott imagined the experience as something akin to being a heroine in a Gothic novel as Richardson described their home in a letter as stately but decrepit.

His sister, Elizabeth, was 40 years old and suffered from neuralgia. Elizabeth was shy and did not seem to have much use for Alcott. Instead, Richardson spent hours reading her poetry and treating her like his confidant and companion, sharing his personal thoughts and feelings with her. Alcott reminded Richardson that she was supposed to be Elizabeth's companion, not his, and she was tired of listening to his "philosophical, metaphysical, and sentimental rubbish." He responded by assigning her more laborious duties, including chopping wood and scrubbing the floors.

She quit after seven weeks in the winter of 1851, when neither of two girls her mother sent to replace her decided to take the job. As she walked from his home to Dedham station, she opened the envelope he handed her with her pay. She was so unsatisfied with the four dollars she found inside that Aloctt family tradition states that she mailed in back to him in contempt.

"Regarde-moi (teste-moi, déteste-moi)" is a song recorded by French singer Priscilla Betti. It was released on December 9, 2002 in France and in January 2003 in Belgium and Switzerland as the first single from her second album Priscilla. The single reached the top ten in France and Belgium. In France it was certified Gold for selling over 250,000 copies, and it remains her best-selling single to date.

Lyrics and music video
The song was written by Bertrand Châtenet, and the music was composed and arranged by Philippe Osman. Jérôme Devoise participated in the mixing of the song, with Bertrand Châtenet (both had worked with Mylène Farmer in the 1980s). Background vocals are performed by Priscilla.

In the song, Priscilla says that she likes to make herself conspicuous and that for this she does not hesitate to do something unusual. The music video shows Priscilla accompanied by a female friend in a fast-food restaurant, where she knocks over a young boy on a skateboard during the first verse, then a waitress during the second verse. When she sings the refrain, she performs a choreography with other girls.

The song is included on many French compilations, such as Girls 2003, Non Stop Hits 5. and Generation Hits. On 28 December 2011, Priscilla performed a slow version on her song on the show Les annees 2000 : le retour !, broadcast on M6.

Chart performances
In France, the single charted for 29 weeks on the French Singles Chart (top 100), 23 of them in the top 50. It debuted at number 62 on 7 December 2002 and climbed regularly until reaching number five in its tenth week and stayed for six weeks in the top ten. It was certified Gold disc by the SNEP and was ranked number 23 on End of the Year Chart.

In Belgium (Wallonia), the single entered the chart on January 11, 2003 at number 40, reached number nine five weeks later, where it stayed for two weeks and totalled 11 weeks on the chart. It was 53rd on the Annual Chart.
