The Martyrdom of Saint Bartholomew is a 1722 oil-on-canvas painting by Giambattista Tiepolo, produced during the first years he was active in Venice. It still hangs in the church of San Stae in the city, for which it was painted.

In his will, the Venetian patrician Andrea Stazzio left a sizeable sum to produce paintings on the lives of the twelve apostles by Tiepolo, Sebastiano Ricci, Giovanni Antonio Pellegrini and other artists, all to be hung in the nave of San Stae, though they were later moved to the chancel. Francisco Goya very probably saw Tiepolo's work during his trip to Italy in 1771 – Tiepolo worked in Madrid for a time and Goya certainly knew and appreciated his work. Glendinning argues that the work's violence was an influence on Goya's The Third of May 1808.

Description 
The painting is characterized by a particularly dark coloration and, although it belongs to Tiepolo's early period, there is a great realism of the figures. The moment in which Saint Bartholomew is about to be skinned is described. The composition is dominated by a diagonal that highlights the body of the saint with respect to those of his executioners; in this way Tiepolo manages to bring out the particularly dramatic moment of the event. The vehemence with which the apostle directs his arms towards heaven is an allusion to God, represented by the beam of light coming from above.

Corscombe is a village and civil parish in the English county of Dorset, in the Dorset Council administrative area. The parish includes the small settlements of Benville and Toller Whelme to the south and in the 2011 census had a population of 445.

Corscombe village is sited "into hollows and along sunken lanes" on the northern scarp slope of the Dorset Downs, approximately  south-south-west from the town of Yeovil in Somerset. Evidence of early human occupation within the parish includes lynchets and, south of the village, three standing stones.

On the higher ground in the village stands the 15th-century parish church of St. Mary, which was restored in 1875–7. In 1905 Sir Frederick Treves described the church as a "handsome building" with an "exceedingly fine" situation. Nearby Corscombe Court dates from the 13th century and is partially surrounded by a moat. It has a 15th-century tithe barn which was once used by the monks of Sherborne Abbey.

About 2 kilometres to the south of Corscombe village, across the A356, is Toller Down, one of the highest hills in Dorset, with good views of the surrounding countryside.

The musician Polly Jean Harvey is a former resident.

was a professional boxer from Tokyo, Japan. He won the world flyweight title in 1952, becoming the first Japanese boxer to win a world title.

Childhood and early career 
Shirai first boxed in elementary school, during a mock match-up against a kangaroo at a local carnival. He became interested in boxing afterwards, and made his professional debut in 1943, during World War II. He won his first eight professional fights before being drafted to join the Imperial Japanese Navy. After being released in 1945, he returned to boxing, but was almost forced into retirement because of injuries he had sustained during the war. However, he met Alvin Rober Cahn, a Jewish-American SCAP employee, who became his trainer and manager. Shirai's boxing skills improved dramatically under Cahn's guidance, and the two formed a close bond.

Shirai fought with the aggressive boxing style typical of the Japanese boxers of the time, but made a change to a more technical, defensive style under the guidance of his new trainer. Cahn made Shirai live in his house, and supervised everything from his health and training to his meals. Cahn began to suffer from dementia in his old age, and it was Shirai's family that took care of him. Cahn had no children when he died, and left Shirai with his entire fortune.

Professional career 
Shirai won his first fight after teaming with Cahn on July 30, 1948, and won the Japanese flyweight title in 1949. He also won the Japanese bantamweight title the same year, and held both titles for over 3 years, making 5 total defenses.

He fought flyweight world champion Dado Marino on May 21, 1951, in a non-title match. Shirai lost by split decision but fought Marino again in December, 1951, to mark a 7th round KO win. On May 19, 1952, he met Marino for the third time for the world flyweight title. Shirai won by 15 round decision, becoming the new world champion, and first ever Japanese boxer to win a world title.

Shirai made four defenses of the world title before losing his title to Pascual Perez in November, 1954 by unanimous decision. He fought Perez again in May, 1955, but lost decisively by KO in the 5th round. He announced his retirement after this loss. His professional record was 48-8-2 (20KOs).

Post retirement 
Shirai worked as a boxing commentator and critic before creating a sports gym in 1995 with former world champion Yoko Gushiken. He received an award from the Japanese government in 1995 for his efforts in boxing. He was inducted into the Ring Magazine hall of fame in 1977.

Death 
Shirai died from pneumonia on December 26, 2003. He was 80 years old.

List of schools

Larchmont Elementary, in the Larchmont neighborhood, also takes students from the Highland Park and Lamberts Point neighborhoods. The current building of Larchmont Elementary opened in 2017. The school, previously known as Larchmont School and at one time having middle school grades, began in October 1913. Originally a part of the Tanner’s Creek School Board, it became a part of the Norfolk school district after Norfolk annexed the area on January 1, 1923. Its original building later became a part of the College of William and Mary. This building, after the transfer to the college, was the administrative offices up until 1936. In 1930 Larchmont School's next building opened, and in 1954 an addition with six classrooms had opened.

Sewell's Point Elementary School was named after the landmark Sewell's Point, which in turn was named after Henry Seawell. Sewell's Point Elementary is the zoned elementary school for on-property dependents living on the grounds of Joint Forces Staff College.

Yucca flaccida, commonly called Adam's needle or weak-leaf yucca, is a species of flowering plant in the asparagus family (Asparagaceae). It is native to south-central and southeastern North America, from the lower Great Plains eastward to the Atlantic seaboard in Virginia, south through Florida and the Gulf states. Its natural habitat is in sandy open woodlands and fields. It is not considered to be threatened by the IUCN.

Description
It is a stemless evergreen shrub growing to  tall by  broad. It has a basal rosette of sharply pointed, swordlike leaves up to  long. In summer,  long panicles of bell-shaped creamy white flowers are held above the foliage.

The Latin specific epithet flaccida means "weak", "feeble", referring to the leaves which often fold under their own weight (the inner leaves may remain erect as they are supported by the outer ones).

Taxonomy
Some authorities regard Y. flaccida as a variety or form of Y. filamentosa, rather than as a separate species.

Populations in the South Central Region of the United States with unusually narrow leaves have been segregated as Y. louisianensis by some authorities. This entity is found in the states of Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas.

Ecology
A number of yucca moths lay their eggs upon Y. flaccida as a host plant, an example being Tegeticula intermedia.

Cultivation
It is cultivated and valued as an architectural plant. Numerous cultivars are available, some with variegated leaves, of which 'Golden Sword' and 'Ivory' have gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.

The Fairbottom Branch Canal was a canal near Ashton-under-Lyne in Greater Manchester, England.

Route
The canal left the Hollinwood Branch Canal at Fairbottom Junction immediately above lock 22. It was just over one mile long (1.82 km) and it was lock free. It terminated at Fenny Fields Bridge, Bardsley, which is situated in the Medlock Valley between Ashton-under-Lyne and Oldham.

History
Although this canal was mainly rural, its main purpose was to carry coal so there was a loading stage for coal and a short private branch for the same purpose. There was also a mill.

Immediately north east of the terminus at Fenny Fields Bridge an industrial community was founded at Park Bridge and a tramway, which included a small-bore tunnel  long, connected the two together. This community was founded in 1783 by Samuel Lees to make rollers for the textile industry. This community expanded rapidly as the demand for textile machinery increased. Following the premature death of Samuel in 1804 the factory was successfully run by his widow Hannah Lees née Buckley and in later years the company was renamed Hannah Lees & Sons in her honour. The last part of this works closed in 1963 due to the decline in the textile industry.

Around 1800, water was being supplied to this canal by Fairbottom Bobs, a Newcomen engine working for mine drainage.

At first, waggon haulage on the tramway was by means of horses but early in the 1840s a steam locomotive called ‘The Ashtonian’ replaced them. Because of the narrow-bore tunnel, the driver needed to be of short stature and even then he had to kneel down to pass through the tunnel. The locomotive's funnel also had to be removed. This tramway remained operational into the 1880s.

In the early 1930s two leakages occurred that made it necessary to lower the water level in the canal and this, coupled with mining subsidence, caused its unofficial closure in 1932. By 1948 the canal was completely unnavigable but it did remain in water.

Much of the line of the former canal remained intact and there are now plans to re-open part of it again as an amenity canal along with much of the Hollinwood Branch Canal.

De Imperio Cn. Pompei ("On the Imperium of Gnaeus Pompeius"), also known as Pro Lege Manilia ("In Favour of the Manilian Law"), was a speech delivered by Cicero in 66 BC before the Roman popular assembly. It was in support of the proposal made by Gaius Manilius, a tribune of the people, that Pompey the Great be given sole command against Mithridates in the Third Mithridatic War.

Cicero advertised Pompey as the only man with the skills for the campaign but also attempted to avoid offending the senatorial aristocracy unnecessarily. However, by supporting Pompey, Cicero had publicly committed himself.

Ismail Tipi (3 January 1959 – 3 February 2023) was a German politician (CDU) and member of the Hessian parliament.

Professional life 
Of ethnic Turkish origin, Tipi lived in Germany since 1972. By 1995 he received German citizenship. He worked as a journalist for Turkish and German media, among others, for the Turkish-language Hürriyet as deputy editorial director Europe for Star TV and for the Offenbach-Post.

Politics 
Tipi was a member of the CDU since 1999. In 2006 he was elected an Alderman in Heusenstamm, in 2007 a council deputy for Offenbach. In the Hessian state election of 2009 he was a candidate number 67 of the state list and a replacement candidate in place 2 for the Offenbach. Following the resignation of Volker Hoff from the Hessian parliament, he was promoted to the parliament on February 9, 2010. He was the first ethnic Turkish politician in the Hessian CDU. Tipi retained his seat in the Hessian state election of 2013 with a direct mandate in place 2 for Offenbach with 46.1% of the vote.

Tipi called internal security, religious extremism, immigration and integration policies his priorities. He had since made a name in the fight against religious extremism, above all, Salafism, nationwide. His political commitment against radical Salafists had already led to death threats against his person. Tipi considers the recent recruitment by Salafists in German schools to be particularly dangerous.

In the Hessen parliament Tipi was assigned to the Committee for Europe (EEA), the Committee of Social Affairs and Inclusion (SIA), the Council of Elders and the Main Committee (HAA). He was also the spokesman for integration policy for the CDU parliamentary caucus in Hesse and chairman of the State Committee of Experts "Integration and Migration" for the CDU in Hesse and a member of the education inquiry-commission.

Personal life
Tipi was married and had a daughter.

Tipi was committed to Islam, but said he was raised in a secular household. He was committed to stopping Salafism and a parallel Islamic judicial system in Germany. He felt that the use of so-called Islamic magistrates hinder successful integration of Muslims in Germany.
