The Philippi Horticultural area is a large semi-urban semi-rural area of Philippi in Cape Town's Cape Flats region, in the Western Cape province of South Africa. The horticultural area is sparsely populated compared to the surrounding city and contains many farms. The 2011 national census recorded 6,618 residents living in the area with an additional 2,961 residents living in the Knole Park community in the central western part of the area.

History
Prior to European settlement in the 1600s nomadic Khoi and San used the land for grazing their animals and hunting for food. The first recorded community of local residents in the Philippi area was in 1833 during which time it was known as "Die Duine" (The Dunes). The Philippi Germans arrived in Cape Town (most of whom originated from the Lüneburger Heide region of Germany) in three groups between 1860 and 1883, and became known for their ability to grow vegetables in the sandy soils of the Cape Flats.

Economy 
The Philippi Horticultural Area provides up to 80% of Cape Town's fresh produce. It hosts 38 farms, 20 of which focus on the cultivation of horticultural products and 11 on livestock and animal products. Continuing urban development within the horticultural area has been controversial amid concerns that it will have a negative impact on food sustainability within Cape Town broadly. The area's agricultural activities generate R484 million of economic output annually.

is a  Sōtō Zen Buddhist temple located in the city of Obama, Fukui, Japan. It is one of the few surviving provincial temples established by Emperor Shōmu during the Nara period (710 – 794). Due to this connection, the temple grounds were designated as a National Historic Site in 1976. It is located about 20 minutes on foot from Higashi-Obama Station on the JR West Obama Line.

Background
The Shoku Nihongi records that in 741, as the country recovered from a major smallpox epidemic, Emperor Shōmu ordered that a monastery and nunnery be established in every province, the .

History
The Wakasa Kokubun-ji is located on the alluvial plain of the Kitagawa River, approximately 4.5 kilometers east of the modern city centre of Obama. An archaeological excavation was conducted since 1972, indicating that the present temple overlaps the Nara period temple, which was built on a scale slightly smaller than other provincial temples, with compound 230 meters square. The exact date of construction is unknown, but is believed to be around 741 AD based on records indicating that the structures of Taikō-ji,  pre-existing family temple of a local clan, was relocated to this site to create the Wakasa Kokubun-ji. The original temple was rebuilt in the Heian period with a slightly different building plan, and in a record dating 1603, the date of construction is given as 807 AD. No roof tiles have been found at the site, which is unusual for a provincial temple. The temple is mentioned in Heian period and Kamakura period records, although mention of its associated provincial nunnery disappear after 1265 AD, and the exact site of the nunnery is now unknown.

In 1611, a Shako-dō was constructed on the site of the original Kondō. This building was rebuilt in 1705.

Precincts
The current precincts consist of the Shako-dō, a 5 x 5 bay building in the irimoya-style containing the temple's honzon Shaka Nyorai. Both the building and the statue are Obama City Designated Tangible Cultural Properties. To the west of the Shako-dō is the Yakushi-dō, containing a Yakushi Nyorai flanked by Shaka Nyorai and Amida Nyorai. The Edo period Yakushi Nyorai is from the now-vanished provincial nunnery, and is an Important Cultural Property. The other two statues are both Obama City Designated Tangible Cultural Properties.

Also within the grounds is a large circular kofun tumulus, with a diameter of approximately 50 meters. One of the largest in the Wakasa region, it dates from the 6th century.

Latent-transforming growth factor beta-binding protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LTBP1 gene.

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of latent TGF-beta binding proteins (LTBPs). The secretion and activation of TGF-betas is regulated by their association with latency-associated proteins and with latent TGF-beta binding proteins. The product of this gene targets latent complexes of transforming growth factor beta to the extracellular matrix, where the latent cytokine is subsequently activated by several different mechanisms. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.

Interactions
LTBP1 (gene) has been shown to interact with TGF beta 1.

One Thousand White Women: The Journals of May Dodd (published by St. Martin's Press in 1998) is the first novel by journalist Jim Fergus.  The novel is written as a series of journals chronicling the fictitious adventures of "J. Will Dodd's" ostensibly real ancestor in an imagined "Brides for Indians" program of the United States government.

An introduction by "J. Will Dodd" places the journals in a contemporary context, and lends an air of realism.

The book won the 1999 Fiction of the Year Award from the Mountains & Plains Booksellers Association. It has since sold over 250,000 copies in the United States, and its French translation was on the French bestseller list for 57 weeks and has sold over 400,000 copies in that country. Its sequel, published in 2017, is The Vengeance of Mothers.

Plot

The premise of the story is that the Northern Cheyenne Indians are shrinking in numbers and seek a way to assimilate into white society.  They decide to marry white women and have half-blood children, enabling the two cultures to blend naturally. The Cheyenne Chief Little Wolf approaches President Ulysses Grant with the proposal to trade 1000 white women for 1000 horses, an offer publicly refused by the government.  
However, the government sees the placating of the Indians as being to their benefit, so they begin the "Brides for Indians" program in which women who are physically healthy and of child rearing age may volunteer to go. However, in order to keep the plan unpublished, they offer the trip to women in prison, asylums, and other restrictive situations.

In Chicago, May Dodd was born into a wealthy family but she fell in love with a man who was "beneath" her, and bore his two children out of wedlock, so her family had her institutionalized in a mental asylum and had her children taken away.  The "Brides for Indians" program sounded like a way out of the asylum, so she joined and started a life of adventure.

The story does meet with some non-fictional characters and situations, including Chief Little Wolf of the Northern Cheyenne tribe, description of many Cheyenne beliefs, and the military forced move to the reservations. Some other situations are adapted from real life, including Little Wolf's murder of a tribe member and exile.

Reception 
The book received a positive review from Kirkus Reviews, which stated: "An impressive historical, terse, convincing, and affecting." The book also met with criticism about its depiction of Native people and women, with one reviewer writing: "This is also a case of a truly badly written woman."

Matthew Dryden (1842–1890) was an English singer-songwriter, radical, and factory worker. His most famous song is possibly "Perseveer".

Life 
Matthew Dryden was born in Belford, Northumberland in the spring of 1842. His father had an interest in a local coal mine, and therefore we would assume that they were financially "comfortable". His father died whilst Dryden was still in his teens, forcing him to find work.

He left Belford, travelled to Newcastle and found work in W.G. Armstrong & Company’s engineering factory, working there for the rest of his life, a period of over 30 years.

The great nine hours strike took place in 1871, and Matthew Dryden joined it, like almost all of his colleagues. He immediately started working for the cause, and organised concerts, the proceeds going to the strike funds.

Being a good singer of local, Irish and sentimental songs, he took part in many of them, and his rendering of Joe Wilson's songs and his own songs "Perseveer" and "Elliott, the Pegswood sculler" were very popular.
When the strike ended he returned to Armstrongs.

He died at his home in Herbert Street in March 1890, age 46 after a lingering illness, leaving a widow and six children. He and his family were no longer "comfortably off" when he died.

Works 
These include:
"Perseveer" or "The Nine Oors Movement" to the tune of "Nelly Ray" - The literary merit is not great, but it suited the audiences of the day. It is written in Geordie dialect<br/ >
"Elliott, the Pegswood sculler" - about William Elliott the sculler from Pegswood
