Gentiana alba (called plain, pale, white, cream, or yellow gentian) is a herbaceous species of flowering plant in the Gentian family Gentianaceae, producing yellowish-white colored flowers from thick white taproots.  It is native to North America from Manitoba through Ontario in the north, south to Oklahoma, Arkansas and North Carolina, and it is listed as rare, endangered, threatened or extirpated in parts of this range.

This species resembles bottle gentian (Gentiana andrewsii), which has blue flowers and a less upright habit, and shares much of the same range. Gentiana alba starts to bloom a few weeks earlier than bottle gentian and the flowers are more open at the tops. Gentiana alba can also hybridize with Gentiana andrewsii, producing upright growing plants having white flowers with blue edges.

Synonyms include Gentiana flavida A. Gray

The Voluntary System of Accountability (VSA) and its College Portraits website is a college search tool for prospective students and an accountability tool for public institutions. 

Students and their families can use the College Portraits to find a presentation of comparable information that comes directly from public universities.  

Participating institutions use the College Portraits to highlight common information prospective students and families seek.  College Portraits data elements include: admissions requirements, retention and graduation rates, campus community highlights, academic programs, safety, and cost of attendance, to name a few.   In 2010, a College Affordability Estimator net price calculator was added to help prospective students estimate their individual net cost to attend a specific university.  The Estimator meets the requirements of the Higher Education Opportunity Act.

Institutions and systems can use the College Portraits to meet accountability requirements from governing boards, state legislatures, state coordinating offices, and other outside groups, often reducing their burden and duplication of effort.  The College Portraits can also be used during the accreditation process as evidence of student learning outcomes, institutional improvement, transparency, and commitment to the public good. 

The VSA is a joint project of the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU) and the American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) in collaboration with the higher education community.   VSA institutions represent more than half of all public four-year institutions, 66 percent of all APLU members, and 60 percent of APLU and AASCU's joint membership.  VSA participating institutions enroll 63 percent of undergraduate students attending public universities.

Josephine V. "Ma" Duda Bogash (March 3, 1897December 18, 1960) was an American roller derby skater. Bogash became one of the first stars of the roller derby along with her son, Bill Bogash. She was the first woman inducted into the Roller Derby Hall of Fame in 1952.

Skating career

In August 1935, Bogash attended the Transcontinental Roller Derby race with her husband and 18-year-old son, Billy, at the Chicago Coliseum, each paying a nickel in admission. She had been diagnosed with diabetes in 1929 and her doctor suggested she exercise regularly to help control her weight. She became a "roller rink buff" to manage her diabetes. As her son later recalled, Bogash wasn't impressed by the women on the team, saying she could skate as well or better; when tryouts were announced in Chicago the following week, her husband dared her to try out. She was offered a position, but wouldn't go on the road unless her son joined her in the derby. They made their skating debut in September 1935 at the second Transcontinental Roller Derby race, held in Kansas City.

Skater Mary Youpelle described "Ma" Bogash as a mother hen, saying she was "kind of the mature person for the whole Derby, so she looked after the girls. You stayed in your quarters at night, and she told you what to do and what not to do." Youpelle continued, "All of us girls would go to Ma if we had a problem." Bogash would sometimes hide a hatpin in her hair and, when she was sure referees weren't looking, would poke other skaters to get out of a congested jam on the track. She would also angrily reprimand or start a shoving match against skaters who injured her son.

Josephine and Billy Bogash were two of the biggest stars of the early roller derby, with Josephine known as the game's first marquee skater. Billed as "the diabetic housewife," "Ma" Bogash was credited with drawing in a large portion of the female audience, especially housewives and middle-aged women.

In 1952 she was one of the first two people to be inducted into the Roller Derby Hall of Fame, along with fellow skater Johnny Rosasco.

Personal life and death

Josephine V. Duda was born March 3, 1897. She was married to Richard W. Bogash, a Wabash Railroad fireman. Their son Billy Bogash was born in 1916.

Bogash died December 18, 1960, and is buried in Evergreen Cemetery in Evergreen Park, Illinois.

Cladonia digitata, commonly known as the finger cup lichen, is a cup lichen species in the family Cladoniaceae.

Description 
Cladonia digitata is a fruticose lichen found mainly in northern Eurasia and North America. It grows mainly on rotten wood, but also grows in rich soils or living plants.

The primary thallus is  composed of large or medium-sized squamules, 2–15 mm. long, involute or somewhat flat and sometimes sorediate at the margin or below. The podetia arise from the surface of the primary thallus, around 10-15mm. long. The lower part is .5–4 mm. in diameter and cylindrical or often incrassate below the cups. Its proliferation is either simple or repeated; The upper part and especially the cups are sorediate and the cavity corticate. The lower part or sometimes the entire podetium is covered with a continuous cortex, without squamules. The cups are medium-sized, 10–15 mm. in diameter and 2–5 mm. high. The margin is commonly somewhat incurved, sub-entire, dentate radiate or proliferate. The ascoma are apothecial, apothecioid or hymenial. The apothecium, reddish in color, is usually medium-sized, or rarely small, .5-5mm. in diameter. They are located at the apices of the branches or rarely on the margin of the cups, are either simple or clustered and either convex or immarginate. 
The paraphyses are simple or rarely branched, and are somewhat enlarged toward the apex. The asci are cylindrico-clavate 
The asci are lecanoralean, with a thickened tholus. There are normally 8 ascospores.

Biochemistry 
Among the secondary metabolites are bellidiflorin, thamnolic acid (which has shown use as an antimicrobial agent), decarboxythamnolic acid and the red pigment rhodocladonic acid.

The Battle of Nirmohgarh was fought between Sikhs and the Mughal Empire in 1702.

Background
The Imperial Mughal Army was defeated in the bloody Battle of Anandpur (1700). After hearing the news about the defeat of the Mughal Army in the battle, Aurangzeb personally himself sent a fresh army under Wazir Khan against Guru Gobind Singh. Wazir Khan thus proceeded with a large number of troops, reinforced by the Hill Rajas of the Sivalik Hills.

The Battle
Wazir Khan met the Sikhs just outside Anandpur on the banks of the River Sutlej at Nirmohgarh. The Mughals attacked the Guru from one side and the Hill Rajas attacked them from the other side. The fight continued fiercely for the whole day and at night until eventually the combined forces of the Mughals and Hill Rajas were exhausted and were compelled to retreat.

The next morning, the Mughals and the Hill Raja's forces restarted the attacking and Guru Gobind Singh, finding himself greatly outnumbered, decided to retire from the place. The enemy troops pursued him and the Sikhs decided to give them another final battle in which the combined forces of Mughals and Hill Rajas were decisively defeated and the imperial Mughal army was forced to withdraw after two days of fighting.

The Maryland House of Correction, nicknamed "The Cut" or "The House", was a Maryland Department of Corrections state maximum security prison in an unincorporated area in Maryland. The prison opened in 1879 and became infamous for the high levels of violence that took place inside its walls. The state, under Governor Martin O'Malley, closed the prison in March 2007.

The prison was situated on  south of Maryland Route 175 between U.S. 1 and the Baltimore–Washington Parkway. Most of its territory was in Anne Arundel County, while portions were in Howard County.

History
The facility was built on land near the former Spurrier's Tavern and a hand-dug section of the B&O railroad called "Jessop's Cut". In 1897, the Baltimore Sun editor petitioned for prison workers to perform road labor to relieve pressure on the overcrowded facility. The nickname "The Cut" was often used during HBO's series The Wire, and during the show's second season many scenes were set at Jessup.

The Maryland House of Correction had a long history of harsh living conditions for inmates and dangerous conditions for correctional officers. Large prison riots occurred in 1945, 1964 and 1972.

The prison was replaced in 2003 by North Branch Correctional Institution, a supermax prison in Cumberland, Maryland, with far greater control features and security.  Demolition of the former prison began in January 2014.

Death of correctional officer

In July, 2006, a Maryland correctional officer, David Warren McGuinn, was killed in the House of Corrections.

Styche Hall is a country house near Market Drayton, Shropshire. It was home to the Clive family and is a Grade II listed building.

Styche belonged to the Clive family, and Robert Clive was born in the old timber-framed house in 1725. On his return from India in 1760, he decided to rebuild Styche Hall. He commissioned Sir William Chambers, who carried out the rebuilding between 1762 and 1766. Further alterations were carried out by Joseph Bromfield of Shrewsbury in 1796–98 for his son Hon. Robert Clive (1769–1833). These included bays, and it is possible that the second floor was added at the same time. Further modifications were carried out around 1900. The building is now divided into flats.

Aneesur Rahman (24 August 1927 – 6 June 1987) pioneered the application of computational methods to physical systems.  His 1964 paper on liquid argon studied a system of 864 argon atoms on a CDC 3600 computer, using a Lennard-Jones potential.  His algorithms still form the basis for many codes written today.  Moreover, he worked on a wide variety of problems, such as the microcanonical ensemble approach to lattice gauge theory, which he invented with David J E Callaway.

Aneesur Rahman was a native of Hyderabad, India. He earned his undergraduate degree in physics and mathematics from Cambridge University in England and his Ph.D. in theoretical physics from Louvain University in Belgium. In 1960, Dr. Rahman began a 25-year tenure as a physicist at the Argonne National Laboratory (Argonne, Ill.) (operated by the University of Chicago). In 1985, Dr. Rahman joined the faculty at the University of Minnesota as a professor of physics and fellow at the Supercomputer Institute.

Dr. Rahman is known as the father of molecular dynamics, a discipline of physics that utilizes computers to simulate microscopic behavior of physical systems. In 1977 Dr. Rahman was awarded the Irving Langmuir Prize by the American Physical Society.  Enrico Fermi's Group (at Los Alamos during the 1950s), George Vineyard's group (radiation damage studies at Brookhaven in 1960), as well as Tom Wainwright and Berni Alder's group (at the Livermore Radiation Laboratory in the 1950s) developed generalized leapfrog and event-driven molecular dynamics algorithms a bit earlier than Rahman.  Berni Alder received a National Medal of Science award from President Obama in 2009.

The American Physical Society annually awards the Aneesur Rahman Prize for outstanding achievement in computational research. First awarded in 1993, the Aneesur Rahman Prize is the highest honour in the field of computational physics given by the American Physical Society.

Argonne National Laboratory offers a special postdoctoral fellowship  named after Aneesur Rahman to be awarded internationally on an annual basis to an outstanding doctoral scientist who is at an early point in a promising career.
