Béla Alexander Balassa (6 April 1928 – 10 May 1991) was a Hungarian economist and professor at Johns Hopkins University and a consultant for the World Bank.

Balassa is best known for his work on the relationship between purchasing power parity and cross-country productivity differences (the Balassa–Samuelson effect).
He is also known for his work on revealed comparative advantage.

Balassa received a law degree from the University of Budapest. He left Hungary after the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and went to Austria. While there, he received a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation to study at Yale University, where he received M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in economics in 1958 and 1959, respectively.  He won the John Addison Porter Prize for 1959.  Balassa also did extensive consulting work for the World Bank, serving as an advisor about development and trade policy.  According to an authoritative history of the Bank, Balassa was "a protagonist of the Bank's conceptual transformation in the trade-policy area during the 1970s."

Beyond economics, Balassa was a noted gourmet who compiled and periodically updated an unofficial guide to eating well in Paris while remaining within an international agency expense allowance, which circulated among his friends and colleagues.

Clara Moyse Tadlock (October 24, 1840 – July 14, 1926) was a British-born American poet and author known for her travel writing.

Literary career 
A native of Southampton, Moyse Tadlock emigrated to the United States in 1848 with her mother, sister, grandparents and uncle. She lived in Cincinnati, Ohio, before entering Westtown School in 1857. She later lived in Knoxville, Tennessee.

She married Alexander Tadlock in Bloomington, Illinois, in 1865. Their only child, son Thomas Lewis Tadlock, died within a month of his birth in 1866. The Tadlocks are buried at Knoxville's Lynnhurst Cemetery.

Moyse Tadlock authored two books, Solomon Grinder's Christmas Eve and Other Poems (1885) and Bohemian Days (1889). She also was a correspondent for The Maryville Times in Maryville, Tennessee, writing about her travels.

Reception 
In his bibliography of American travel literature, Harold Frederick Smith described Bohemian Days as "a woman's account of a pleasure tour around the world, west to east." Smalley's Magazine also reviewed the book, describing it as "a lively book of travel, which takes the reader around the entire circuit of the globe... the work is written in a chatty, feminine fashion, with little aid from guide books, and has the charm of a frank, personal narrative." Amanda B. Harris in Good Housekeeping wrote, "she saw many things that a woman would specially notice while a man would hardly see them at all."

Brussels American School (BAS) was opened in October 1967. It is located near Brussels, Belgium on a  area in Sterrebeek, part of the municipality of Zaventem, Flemish Brabant.

The school serves as a DoDDS school for all US military and DOD civilian sponsor dependents, who are allowed to enroll their children tuition free. Non-DOD persons, including U.S., Belgian, and other citizens, are required to pay tuition. It celebrated its fortieth anniversary in late 2007. It also takes European students from Partnership for Peace (PfP) countries of NATO, to include Macedonia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia etc. Its proximity to NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) helps serve as an opportunity for American children to enroll in a school taught to familiarize them with the American school system.

Student body
The school has thirty-six faculty members, many of whom have been at Brussels American School for more than fourteen years. The student body holds, on average, three hundred students K-12, and approximately one hundred students in its high school. With so few students, BAS changed from Division Three to Division Four in the year 2006. In the year 2009-2010 the DODDSE schools combined Divisions 3 and 4; therefore, making Brussels American School division 3 again. Of all the DoDDS schools, Brussels American School holds the highest percentage of students who graduate, highest average AP & SAT scores, and highest acceptance rate to the Service Academies, with two of the fourteen people in the senior class of 2016 going to the U.S. Air Force Academy and U.S. Coast Guard Academy.  A prime example of this is the AP Chemistry class of 2009, where seven of the eight students achieved fives on the AP exam.

The American Eagle Phaeton was an American three seat, single engine sports biplane produced from 1929 until American Eagle failed financially in 1932. About 34 were built.

Design and development

The Phaeton was designed for the sports pilot rather than for commercial use but was able to carry two passengers. It was an equal span, single bay biplane with interchangeable upper and lower wings joined by N-form interplane struts. Shorter N-struts from the upper fuselage provided a central cabane. The wings were strongly staggered by about half chord They were built around twin spars, with plywood covering from the forward spar forming a torsion-resistant D-box. There were externally interconnected slotted ailerons on both wings. 

The first batch of eight Phaetons, produced in 1929, had  Wright R-540 Whirlwind five cylinder radial engines in the nose with cylinders exposed for cooling. Behind the engine mounting the fuselage was a chrome-molybdenum steel tube structure with fabric covering. The passengers sat side by side in an open cockpit midway over the lower wing, with the pilot well behind the upper trailing edge. Dual controls could be rapidly fitted in the forward cockpit.

Its blunted tip, triangular tailplane was mounted at mid-fuselage height and was in-flight adjustable, with rounded rectangular elevators separated by a gap for rudder movement. The tailplane was strut-braced to a low, ground-adjustable fin with a curved leading edge that carried a blunted rectangular, balanced rudder. 

The Phaeton's fixed, split axle undercarriage was conventional with wheels on V-struts from the lower fuselage longerons. long, specially made Rosco ring type shock absorber legs reached from the wheels to the upper longerons.

The Phaeton's engine mountings were designed to accept a variety of engines including the newer nine cylinder,  Wright R-790 Whirlwind  and the old but cheap, water-cooled Hispano A and B. In 1929 one clipped-wing Phaeton was tested as a racer, then fitted with  nine cylinder R-790 Whirlwind engine. Piloted by Jack Foster, this competed in the 1930 National Air Races, resulting in the sale of another 24 similarly-powered, though full span, Phaetons. 

American Eagle ceased trading in 1932.

James R. Lewis (May 3, 1936 – October 9, 2020) was an evangelist, businessman and former Republican member of the Wisconsin State Assembly, who was removed from office after being convicted of perjury.

Background 
Lewis was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He attended Rufus King High School, University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, and Moody Bible Institute; worked as an evangelist for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association; married; and became active in the organizations Citizens for Decency Through Law and Christian Business Men's Committee (of which he was a regional director). As of 1972–1974 he lived in the Town of Barton in Washington County. An ordained minister, Lewis founded Christian Bible Fellowship, a regional missionary society, in 1988.

Legislative service 
He was elected to represent the newly created 53rd Assembly District (portions of Dodge, Fond du Lac, and Washington counties) in 1972 with 9341 votes, to 7939 for Democrat Lehman Eichstadt. In 1974 he almost lost a challenge in the Republican primary to Mary Panzer (daughter of Frank E. Panzer, a former state senator from this area), receiving 1830 votes to her 1749; but won the general election by a more comfortable margin. He saw no challenge in the 1976 primary and was reelected easily. In 1978 he was re-elected without opposition.

Conviction and removal from office 
Lewis became part of a group who attempted to persuade laser scientist Myron Muckerheide (formerly with NASA) to create a laser gun "designed to blind people", and to sell it to Guatemalan colonel Federico Fuentes in order to raise funds to build a laetrile factory in South America (Lewis had been a prominent Wisconsin advocate for the legalization and manufacture of laetrile). Muckerheide contacted the FBI, the laser was never built, and in 1979 Lewis pleaded guilty to perjury for lying to a federal grand jury investigating the scheme. Lewis, apologized, saying he "...made a very, very serious mistake and I regret that very much." Fellow Republican Governor Lee Dreyfus declined to request a presidential pardon for Lewis, although he was quoted as saying the six-month sentence was too harsh.

Under the relevant provisions of Wisconsin law, Lewis was removed from office. In the subsequent special election, Mary Panzer was elected to take his place.

After removal 

Lewis worked for a family owned business, Sunseed Natural Foods, in West Bend. He served on the board of the Mid-American Health Organization (a regional lobbying organization for health food stores and sellers of dietary supplements) and as its president (2002-2010).

Lewis died on October 9, 2020, in Wisconsin Dells.

Torrini is a Florentine company of goldsmiths located in the Piazza del Duomo. Founded in 1369, it is arguably the oldest jewelry firm in the world.

History 
Torrini's trademark was registered in 1369 with the Blacksmiths and Armourers Guild of the Florentine Republic by Jacopus Turini Della Scharperia (or Scarperia). The registration is documented in the State Archives of Florence with a signum, which is a half-clover with a spur, still used to seal the firm's works.

The Torrini Goldsmith Family's tradition of producing jewelry and artwork is passed down from father to son. Some of their works, created by members of the family, are now displayed in museums worldwide. For instance, Giovanni di Turino's (or Turini) Madonna and Child are exhibited at the National Gallery of Art Detroit Institute of Arts in the USA, while the Virgin with Child can be found at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in Washington, DC. Another example of a Florentine hard stone inlay, the nineteenth-most recent set of Giocondo Torrini, is housed at the British Museum in London, and another piece exists at the RISD Museum in Providence, US.

The Museum 
The museum bears witness to the secular activities of the Torrini Goldsmith Lineage with its seventeenth-century history. Among the museum works there are rare examples of Renaissance silverware, and several eighteenth-century and nineteenth-century brooches made of semiprecious stones. They are periodically organized in traveling exhibitions devoted to monographic issues or particular artists.

Energy–maneuverability theory is a model of aircraft performance. It was developed by Col. John Boyd, a fighter pilot, and Thomas P. Christie, a mathematician with the United States Air Force, and is useful in describing an aircraft's performance as the total of kinetic and potential energies or aircraft specific energy. It relates the thrust, weight, aerodynamic drag, wing area, and other flight characteristics of an aircraft into a quantitative model. This allows combat capabilities of various aircraft or prospective design trade-offs to be predicted and compared.

Formula 
All of these aspects of airplane performance are compressed into a single value by the following formula:

History 
John Boyd, a U.S. jet fighter pilot in the Korean War, began developing the theory in the early 1960s. He teamed with mathematician Thomas Christie at Eglin Air Force Base to use the base's high-speed computer to compare the performance envelopes of U.S. and Soviet aircraft from the Korean and Vietnam Wars. They completed a two-volume report on their studies in 1964.  Energy Maneuverability came to be accepted within the U.S. Air Force and brought about improvements in the requirements for the F-15 Eagle and later the F-16 Fighting Falcon fighters.

The River Glen is a seven mile long tributary of the River Till flowing through  Northumberland, England. The College Burn and Bowmont Water, both flowing out of the Cheviot Hills, meet near Kirknewton to form the River Glen. The Glen flows past the small settlements of Yeavering, Lanton, Coupland, Akeld and Ewart, before joining the Till.

History 
The area around the Glen is rich in historical and archaeological interest. Iron Age hillforts on peaks to the south of the river overlook the Anglo-Saxon settlement and palace site at Yeavering, where St. Paulinus baptised new converts and, according to Bede, "washed them with the water of absolution in the river Glen, which is close by" (Tomlinson, 1888, p. 504).

The area around the Glen was the setting for some of the bloodiest border warfare between Scotland and England. The Battle of Humbleton Hill was fought near the river in 1402, as was the Battle of Geteryne (Yeavering) in 1415.

Arthurian myth
A reference to a similarly named river in Historia Brittonum by the Welsh author Nennius, some (Ekwal, 1928; Hunt, 2005) have hypothesized that the legendary British warrior Arthur began his campaign against Anglo-Saxon invaders near the confluence of the Glen and Till: 
Then it was, that Arthur, with all the kings and military force of Britain, fought against the Saxons. And though there were many more noble than himself, yet he was twelve times chosen their commander, and was as often conqueror. The first battle in which he was engaged, was at the mouth of the river Glein.

Hydrology
Between 1966 and 2010 the flow of the Glen, was measured in its lower reaches at a weir near Kirknewton. The 44 year record shows that the catchment of  to the gauging station yielded an average flow of .
