Ethan Tecumseh Vishniac (born 1955) is an American astrophysicist. He is the Editor-in-Chief of the Astrophysical Journal and a professor of Astronomy at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, after holding positions at University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon,  McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada,  and University of Texas in Austin.

Education
Vishniac graduated from University of Rochester and Harvard University. He received his Ph.D. in astrophysics in 1980 from Harvard University while working under the direction of William H. Press. After Harvard, Vishniac spent two years as a post doctoral fellow working under Jeremiah P. Ostriker at Princeton University.

Research
His best known scientific work is the study of instabilities in expanding blast waves.  In Vishniac (1983), he demonstrated that a blast wave expanding in a sufficiently compressible medium would be subject to a linear overstability growing as the square root of time.  This is usually known as the Vishniac instability, and generally occurs in any thin enough slab bounded by a shock on one side and a contact discontinuity to a higher temperature region on the other.  In Vishniac (1994) he then demonstrated that a thin-enough slab bounded by shocks on both sides is subject to a nonlinear instability, usually described as a nonlinear thin shell instability (NTSI).  
He has also worked with success in cosmology and the theory of astrophysical dynamos.

Honors and awards
 2001: Elected Fellow of the American Physical Society "for pioneering contributions to the study of blast-wave stability, the generation of secondary anisotropies in the microwave background, and the study of MHD turbulence and dynamos in astrophysical objects."

Personal life
He is the son of microbiologist Wolf V. Vishniac and grandson of photographer Roman Vishniac. His wife Ilene Busch-Vishniac, the ninth president of the University of Saskatchewan (2012-2014), was previously Dean of the Faculty of Engineering at Johns Hopkins, and provost and vice-president (academic) of McMaster University from 2007 until 2012.

Richard Potter (1783–1835) was an American magician, hypnotist and ventriloquist. He was the first American-born magician to gain fame in his own country and is widely considered the first African-American celebrity.

Biography
Potter was born in Hopkinton, Massachusetts;. He claimed his father was Sir Charles Henry Frankland, a tax collector for the Port of Boston and that his mother Dinah was a black slave in the household. Since Sir Charles died in England in 1768, others believe the father may have been Henry Cromwell who lived in the household or a minister by the name of George Simpson.

Richard Potter became a well-known magician in the New England area from 1811 to his death in 1834. As a performer he obscured most of his early life and encouraged speculation. Evidently he went to Hopkinton schools. Various accounts differ on the reason but agree that he went to Europe and joined John Rannie, a Scottish ventriloquist and magician. Rannie came to the United States in 1800.

Potter toured with Rannie as one of his assistants in the Eastern United States.  In 1811 Rannie retired to Scotland and encouraged Potter to continue on his own. This is also the year that he became a Mason of African Lodge No. 459 and was part of founding the Prince Hall Masonry. Potter performed up and down the East Coast, going as far south as Alabama. One of Potter's notable run-ins with prejudice occurred in Mobile, Alabama, where he was turned away from a hotel because of his race. Despite this issue, Potter still made over $4,000 during that visit.

In 1814 Potter purchased about 175 acres in the village of Andover, New Hampshire.  He built a large house on his estate. Known for his showmanship in all aspects of life, the estate included two life size wooden carvings of human figures on pillars.  To this day, this area of New Hampshire is called "Potter Place" for Richard.

Potter inspired Grace Metalious's character Samuel Peyton in the novel Peyton Place.

Potter married Sally Harris in 1808.  Potter claimed she was a Penobscot Native American.  They had three children.   Richard and Sally are buried in a small graveyard on the property he bought in Andover. Their graves were moved but his  request was to be buried upright.

William Linton Parrish (August 6, 1860 – February 20, 1949) was a politician in Manitoba, Canada.  He served in the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba from 1914 to 1920 as a member of the Liberal Party.

Biography 
Parrish was born in Vroomanton, Canada West (now Ontario), the son of Samuel Parrish and Jane Cash, and was educated at Uxbridge.  He began work in the grain trade with his father and then, in 1879, moved to Huntsville where he operated a grist and flour mill. In 1881, Parrish moved to Manitoba and operated as a grain dealer in Brandon and then, later, in Winnipeg. In 1885, he married Annie Ellen Card. He was a member of Brandon town council for two years. Parrish also served as president of the Winnipeg Grain Exchange. In 1909, he co-founded the Parrish & Heimbecker grain company. He was also the director of Fidelity Trust Co., Equitable Trust Co., Capital Loan Co. and Inland Mortgage Co.  Parrish was an honorary captain and paymaster with the 90th Winnipeg Rifles, and was a Methodist in religion.

He was first elected to the Manitoba legislature in the 1914 provincial election, defeating Conservative Harry W. Whitlaw by 910 votes in the constituency of Winnipeg South "B".  The Conservatives won this election, and Parrish sat with his party in opposition.

In 1915, the Conservative administration of Rodmond Roblin was forced to resign from office amid a corruption scandal.  A new election was called, which the Liberals won in a landslide.  Parrish was easily re-elected in his constituency, defeating Conservative Lendrum McMeans by 3,332 votes.  He served as a backbench supporter of Tobias Norris's administration for the next five years.

Winnipeg's electoral boundaries were dramatically changed before the 1920 provincial election.  The city became a single ten-member constituency, with members elected by a single transferable ballot.  Parrish finished 17th on the first count with 945 votes, and was eliminated on the 28th count.

William Parrish died in Winnipeg on February 20, 1949.

Crumillospongia is a genus of middle Cambrian sponges known from the Burgess Shale and other localities from the Lower and Middle Cambrian.  Its name is derived from the Latin crumilla ("money purse") and spongia ("sponge"), a reflection of its similarity to a small leathery money purse. That is, it has a saclike shape, and its wall has holes of two sizes, with a well-developed internal canal system.  49 specimens of Crumillospongia are known from the Greater Phyllopod bed, where they comprise 0.1% of the community.

David Larsen (born April 23, 1980) is an American stage actor. A 1998 graduate of Hillsboro High School, Larsen starred in many of its productions, including the title role in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

Larsen attended Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania's Carnegie Mellon University and performed in nine shows. Afterward, he was a member of the ensemble for many off-Broadway productions including The Sound of Music and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. Larsen eventually landed a three-episode spot on TV's Boston Public. This exposure helped lead to his casting as Riff in West Side Story, as well as the lead role of Bobby in the Broadway production Good Vibrations. In October 2008, he joined the company of Billy Elliot as a member of the ensemble while understudying the role of Tony. He briefly left the production in March 2011 for several weeks to take on the role of Tunny in American Idiot on Broadway, replacing actor Stark Sands. He stayed with the production until its April 24, 2011 closing. In 2013, Larsen finished his run with the new musical titled Hands on a Hardbody, which premiered at La Jolla Playhouse in April. He played the role of veteran soldier Chris Alvaro. Larsen reprised his role when the show opened on Broadway, beginning previews on February 23, 2013. It ran for a total of twenty eight performances before closing in April. Later in 2014, Larsen joined the second national tour of The Book of Mormon, playing the role of Elder Kevin Price.
