Shane Ortega is a retired Army Staff Sergeant and Marine Corps veteran. Ortega was stationed at Wheeler Airfield in Oahu, Hawaii in the 3-25th Combat Aviation Division of the Army's 25th Infantry Division. He was a member of the Gay Men's Chorus of Honolulu and competed at the professional level of bodybuilding, placing fourth in fall 2015.

Life
Retired Army Staff Sergeant Ortega served three duty tours: two in Iraq with the USMC as a woman, and one in Afghanistan with the Army as a man. He claims to have been a "team and squad leader, a flight engineer, and a machine gunner."  

Ortega executed over 400 combat missions in Iraq and Afghanistan, "and fought side-by-side in foxholes and remote operating bases." Ortega noted that in a combat zone his gender identity made little difference, as he was expected to carry his own equipment and do his job—lives counted on it. Military regulations used to deem "any proclamation of a transgender identity or gender-affirming clinical treatment to be evidence of a mental illness that makes one unfit to serve" according to The Advocate. Evaluated by an Army doctor, Ortega was determined to be free of gender dysphoria and deemed fit to serve.

Beginning in 2008, Ortega advocated LGBT rights. He co-founded support organizations and lobbied with legislators, often using his open own personal experiences and performance record to help advance the cause for transgender and LGBT service members. In championing the repeal of "Don't ask, don't tell" (DADT), equal opportunity protections for LGBT members, acceptance of women in combat roles, and lifting the ban on transgender military service, he worked with the military chain of command and the ACLU.

Real-time optimally adapting mesh (ROAM) is a continuous level of detail algorithm that optimizes terrain meshes. On modern computers, sometimes it is more effective to send a small amount of unneeded polygons to the GPU, rather than burden the CPU with LOD (Level of Detail) calculations—making algorithms like geomipmapping more effective than ROAM. This technique is used by graphics programmers
in order to produce high quality displays while being able to maintain real-time frame rates. Algorithms such as ROAM exist to provide a control over scene quality versus performance in order to provide HQ scenes while retaining real-time frame rates on hardware. ROAM largely aims toward terrain visualization, but various elements from ROAM are difficult to place within a game system.

To assist regional geological mapping, more abundant and visualized expression forms are highly needs. Thus, the 3D terrain model is adopted as the carrier for the demands in many correlative fields. Based on the regular grid DEM (Digital Elevation Model) in DRGS, ROAM algorithm is applied to create a more dynamic model, which will give consideration to the importance of different features and select correspondence level of detail.

Original Paper 
The algorithm was introduced in the paper " ROAMing Terrain: Real-time Optimally Adapting Meshes" appearing in the Proceedings of IEEE Visualization 1997. The authors are

The Two Jasons is a novel by Dave Stone, focusing on the life of Jason Kane, a character from the spin-off media based on the long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who.  Jason is the ex-husband of the regular Big Finish series character Bernice "Benny" Summerfield, who appears in flashback.

The book does not feature the Doctor, although sections of it retell the events of the Doctor Who novel Death and Diplomacy from Jason's point of view.  The novel is also a sequel to the short story Sex Secrets of the Robot Replicants by Philip Purser-Hallard, originally published in the Bernice Summerfield anthology A Life Worth Living, and reprinted here.

Plot summary

A few years ago, Jason Kane created three clones of himself, to help him in a scam.  Afterwards, the replicants went their separate ways, but now somebody is trying to kill them.  Plagued by flashbacks of the original Jason's life, the surviving clones must join forces or die.  Or possibly both.

Oil Can Henry's was an oil-change shop based in Tualatin, Oregon, United States. Prior to being bought by Ashland Inc. in 2015, the company operated as a franchisor, and had locations in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, California, Arizona, Colorado and Minnesota. After the acquisition, the shops were re-branded as Valvoline Instant Oil Change locations.

One feature of these shops was that they did not have waiting rooms; instead, customers watched the service from their car using a monitor that displayed  live video from cameras placed around the car, and were also given a free newspaper to read (either local or USA Today). Employees were known for their uniforms that feature a bow tie and a newsboy cap. The company motto was "The One You Can Trust".

History

Oil Can Henry's was founded in 1978 by Marshall Stevens, a Tigard, Oregon, real estate developer. In 1988, the Shepanek family and friends purchased the company for $340,000, while Stevens continued to own franchises. Then named OCH International, the company began selling franchises in 1989. Sales at the company grew to $15 million in 1996.

The company was the nation's 18th largest oil change company in 1997. That year Oil Can Henry's signed a deal with Valvoline that included loan guarantees, payments to franchisees to help cover start-up costs, and a discount on oil. By April 2007, the company had grown to 67 locations, with ten of those as company-owned shops. Stevens had to sell 12 of 14 of his locations in 1991 due to financial problems.

Oil Can Henry's and its customers donated a total of $71,000 to the National Military Family Association in late 2014.

Oil Can Henry's and its franchisees donated $91,000 to the National Military Family Association in November, 2015.

OCH International sold to Ashland Inc. on December 11, 2015, which also owns the Valvoline brand.

Operations
The company had locations in six different western states: Washington, Oregon, California, Idaho, Arizona, and Colorado, with the majority of the shops located in Oregon and Washington. Oil Can Henry's also offered a variety of other vehicle maintenance services in addition to oil changes.

Lazar Bačić (; January 1865 – 12 May 1941) was a Croatian Serb merchant and philanthropist. Ustashas used his property and industrial facilities to open the Ciglana part of the Jasenovac concentration camp. He was a prominent benefactor of Privrednik.

Biography 
Bačić was engaged in trade and owned several stores in Zagreb and Jasenovac, as well as a brickyard.

He was one of the founders of the Serbian Bank in Zagreb, a longtime president of the Serbian Orthodox Church Administration in Jasenovac, a member of the Board of Directors of the Pakrac Savings Bank in Pakrac and the Serbian co-operation for promotion and savings in Okučani, a member of the Supervisory Board of the Serbian Credit Cooperative in Kostajnica and the Serbian Savings Bank as a cooperative in Nova Gradiška.

High treason accusation 
As a member of the Central Committee of the Serb Independent Party, in 1909 Bačić was one of 53 Serbs accused by the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy of high treason – conspiracy to overthrow the state and place Croatia-Slavonia under Serbian rule. He spent 16 months in a prison. After that he was tagged as a suspicious person, especially during the World War I.

Privrednik 
Bačić was a member of the Privrednik's Patronage at the time of his establishment in 1911 and one of its greatest philanthropists. Each year, on the Lazarus Saturday, he donated ten thousand Yugoslav dinars to Privrednik. In addition to his regular cash payments, in 1921, he handed over a luxurious two-storey building with a shop at the corner of the Gaj Street and the Berislavić Street in the center of Zagreb, as well as hundred thousand dinars.

Death 
Bačić died in his apartment in Zagreb on 12 May 1941 and was buried at the Mirogoj Cemetery on 14 May.

His property in Jasenovac was confiscated by Ustasha Militia and used its industrial facilities to open the Ciglana part of the Jasenovac concentration camp, which existed there until 23 April 1945.

Sedlar controversy 
Croatian filmmaker Jakov Sedlar in his 2016 documentary film Jasenovac – istina accused Bačić for the pre-war murders of Croats in Jasenovac and stated that he and his son Ozren had fled to Serbia where they supported the Milan Nedić's Government. Ljubica Bačić, a daughter of Ozren Bačić, rejected this accusations and confirmed that Ozren was his nephew and that he died in Zagreb.

Personal life 
He had a brother, Jovan, who was a merchant also. He married Dragica Miković, with whom he had no children.
