Marie Antoinette Parrish Hough Martin (1840 - October 28, 1915) under her pen name Nettie Parrish Martin wrote and published two books: Indian Legends of Early Days (January 1905 Mayhew Publishing Co), a book of Six Nations Iroquois legends,  and A Pilgrim’s Progress in Other Worlds: Recounting the Wonderful Adventures of Ulysum Storries and His Discovery of the Lost Star Eden (1908 Mayhew Publishing Co), a work of early science fiction.

Indian Legends of Early Days
“Indian Legends of Early Days” recounts in verse stories that were told to Martin by her grandmother, including "Oneidas", "The Lost Arrow", "Skaneateles", and "Pocahontas". In its forward Martin writes:

The story, “The Lost Arrow” tells of a Six Nations warrior Os-sa-hin-ta, who is given a special arrowhead of “red flint flecked and streaked with white” that ensures prosperity for its owner. According to the New York Weekly Observer, in 1967, the founder of the Deer Lick Museum in Cattaraugus County, New York stated that he was inspired by the local discovery of an arrowhead matching Martin's description  to create the museum.

A Pilgrim’s Progress in Other Worlds
A Pilgrim’s Progress in Other Worlds is a novel about interplanetary travel.  It is both science fiction and utopian literature.  Its hero, Ulyssum Storries, creates a "skycycle" ("a bird-like flying machine powered by electricity and capable of Space Flight".) to take him into outer space where he visits Earth’s moon, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and finally the Sun. Each world he visits has a different society, each with a unique relationship between the sexes, leading the protagonist to explore the condition of women across societies. The novel was reviewed by The Publishers' Weekly in 1908:

A list of Science Fiction and Utopias by Women, 1818–1949 compiled by L. Timmel Duchamp includes A Pilgrims Progress in Other Worlds. 
A Pilgrim’s Progress in Other Worlds is cited in many anthologies including American Fiction 1901-1925 and Science Fiction and Fantasy Literature, Volume 1. In The Bookman: A Review of Books and Life the reviewer notes:

To ignore the Christian thrust of this imaginative novel is of course a temptation, as the conservative, Missionary tone of the work may seem at odds with contemporary feminist readings.  Martin does indeed examine women’s role in society, but the overarching project is Dantesque without the demons:  to explore the layers and levels of Christian ideology across the extended metaphor of a solar system.  The characters are often allegorical (Reliable, Obedience ...) and the quest is the spreading and examination of Biblical truths.  

The dedication is to the author’s parents. 
« who, by example and patient teaching taught me early to love the Bible Truths, my Heavenly Father and his son our savior... »

Republication
Indian Legends of Early Days has been republished by Leopold Classic Library, while A Pilgrim’s Progress in Other Worlds is available as an e-book.

The Maghreb barbel (Luciobarbus maghrebensis) is a ray-finned fish species in the family Cyprinidae. It is found in Morocco.

The taxonomy and systematics of the Maghreb barbs are subject to considerable dispute. Some authors consider L. maghrebensis a distinct species, while others include it in the Algerian barb (L. callensis).  Furthermore, some taxonomists consider B. labiosa conspecific with L. maghrebensis when the latter is considered distinct.  It is found in the Sebou basin and rivers flowing into the Moulay Bouselham Lagoon on the Atlantic slope in north-central Morocco.

Yoga in Italy is the practice of yoga, whether for exercise, therapy, or other reasons, in Italy.

History

A pioneer of modern yoga as exercise in Italy was Vanda Scaravelli (1908-1999), author of the "classic" 1991 book Awakening the spine. 

Another pioneer, Carlo Patrian (1930-2008), began studying yoga in 1950 and founded the yoga institute that still bears his name in Milan in 1965.

In the 21st century, yoga is growing steadily in Italy, and the International Day of Yoga (21 June) is celebrated across the country each summer. By 2017 there were some 830 recognised yoga schools in the country. The 2018 Coop report (compiled by Nielsen in 2017) stated that 11% of the women of Italy and 3% of the men practiced yoga or Pilates; 32% of those consulted said they intended to practice in future. 

Among the forms of yoga in Italy are hybrids such as aerial yoga and Acroyoga. An approach to spiritual and social growth through yoga and meditation is being developed by the mountaineer and yoga teacher Heinz Grill.

Italy is a popular destination for yoga tourism, with yoga retreats and holidays taught in various languages.

Regulation

By 2019, yoga teacher training was still not regulated in Italy despite the country's 3 million yoga practitioners, resulting, according to Bianca Carati writing in La Stampa, in excessively "accelerated" courses, some taking as little as 2 months to deliver 150 hours of training at a cost between €1500 and €3000. Carati reported that the Associazione Italiana Iyengar yoga considered this inadequate; it required at least 3 years of training. It, along with the Associazione Italiana Insegnanti Yoga and the Associazione Yoga Satyananda, has created a set of proposed standards for yoga teacher training in Italy, requiring at least 500 hours of training over a period of at least four years, and to have taught for at least four years.

Duane Park is a small, triangular public urban park located in the diamond of the Tribeca neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. The park is bordered by Hudson Street to the east and branches of Duane Street on north and south sides. It was originally laid out by Calvert Vaux.

The park is supported by a non-profit group, The Friends of Duane Park, whose website contains a brief history of the park and its neighborhood.

The city of New York purchased Duane Park in 1795 from Trinity Church for five dollars. The park is surrounded by beautiful, turn of the century, architecturally ornate loft buildings which were constructed during the 19th century. Duane Street, which borders the park, is named for James Duane, an important parishioner at Trinity Church.

Jack "Jackie" Dryburgh (14 January 1939 – 21 August 2020) was a Scottish ice hockey player and coach and administrator. Born in Kirkcaldy, he played for various clubs in Scotland and England during the 1950s and 1960s as well as coaching in Aviemore and Solihull. He was a member of the British Ice Hockey Association and was inducted into the British Ice Hockey Hall of Fame in 1991.

Playing career
Dryburgh began his senior playing career with Murrayfield Royals. He moved to England to play for the Nottingham Panthers in the British National League in October 1956. However, he returned to the Royals as he was unable to find suitable employment as an aircraft fitter in the Midlands. The Royals remained unbeaten in the 1957–58 season. He then returned to England in 1959 to play for the Southampton Vikings, scoring four goals in his debut game and finishing the season as the team's leading points scorer. After starting the 1960–61 season back with the Royals, Dryburgh finished the second half of the season with the Vikings.

In 1961, Dryburgh made his only appearance for the Great Britain national team at the World Championship Pool B tournament in Switzerland. The team were undefeated in the tournament although they finished runners up.

Dryburgh joined the Brighton Tigers at the start of the 1961–62 season and remained with them for four seasons. With the Tigers, he scored 205 goals and 262 assists for 467 points in 131 games. After the ice rink in Brighton closed, Dryburgh played for Liège in the Belgian league and made occasional appearances for Fife Flyers, Perth Panthers and the homeless Brighton Tigers.

Post playing career
In the late 1960s, Dryburgh moved to Aviemore in Scotland where he was the rink manager for many years. Following his time in Aviemore, Dryburgh became the team manager of the Solihull Barons in the 1980s.

Following his stint in Solihull, Dryburgh returned to his home-town, Kirkcaldy, as the rink manager of the Fife Ice Arena. During his time there he acted as bench coach on occasion. Dryburgh also represented the Scottish Rink Managers Association on the now-defunct British Ice Hockey Association.

Dryburgh died on 21 August 2020, at the age of 81.

The Palm m100 series consists of four Palm OS based personal digital assistants (or PDAs) titled m100, m105, m125, and m130.  These models were intended to be "entry-level" PDAs, and therefore their cases were built from cheaper materials. Most notably, the covers of the LCD screens and the digitizers were plastic rather than glass, and the screens were smaller than the more expensive Palm devices on sale at the time.

Unlike some other Palm computers, which had rechargeable batteries, they were designed to run on standard AAA batteries (except for the m130, which uses a rechargeable battery). During battery changes, data was preserved via a capacitor.

A hinged flip screen cover with a screen window was an included accessory. When the device is not in use, the "scroll up" button can be depressed through a hole in the cover to briefly display the system clock in the cover's window.

Specifications
The m100 is powered by the Motorola EZ Dragonball processor operating at 16 MHz and has 2 Megabytes of RAM. It was released in August 2000, and originally shipped to customers with Palm OS 3.5. It is 4.66 inches high, 3.10 inches wide, and 0.72 inches thick. It weighs 3.7 oz without batteries or the screen cover. It came with a serial cable to sync with a computer and a CD-ROM with Palm Desktop software. It has a durable plastic screen that will withstand falls better than glass screens, and it comes with a hinged screen cover that hangs over the screen when not in use.

The m105 is identical to the m100 but it contains 8 Megabytes of RAM, and in the box a cradle is included instead of a cable.  It was released on March 6, 2001, and originally shipped to customers with Palm OS 3.5. The m105 had a problem whereby the capacitor that saved the contents of the RAM when changing batteries would fail. Several hardware hacks are available that fix this error.

The m125 is powered by the Motorola VZ Dragonball processor operating at 33 MHz. It has a 160x160 pixel greyscale LCD screen and 8 Megabytes of RAM. It was released in September 2001, and originally shipped to customers with Palm OS 4.0.1. The cradle connection and addition of an expansion port differs from that of the earlier models, and is identical to that of the Palm m500 series, and this model shipped with a synchronization cradle that connected to the USB port (M100 and M105 connected via the PC's serial port.) This handheld also features an expansion slot for an SD or MMC format memory card, in addition to SDIO cards. The Palm m125 is the last PDA manufactured by Palm that accepts user-replaceable AAA batteries.

The m130 is also powered by the Motorola VZ Dragonball processor operating at 33 MHz. It has a 160x160 pixel LCD screen that supports 12-bit color. It was released on March 4, 2002, and was originally shipped to customers running Palm OS 4.1.

Novel Uses
An emulated m130 is still used to control the projection system in some IMAX theaters, while many still use real hardware to control the film's video and audio synchronization.

Andrew Gordon (15 June 1712 – 22 August 1751) was a Scottish Benedictine monk, physicist and inventor. He made the first electric motor.

Life

Andrew Gordon was born in Cofforach, Forfarshire. He was a son of an old Scottish aristocratic family and baptized with the name George. At the age of 12, he travelled to Regensburg, Bavaria, in order to study at the Benedictine Scottish Monastery. As a Catholic Scot, there was no possibility of getting entrance to higher offices in his homeland. In Regensburg, he completed a 5-year general education course of study. Abbott Bernhard Baillie made it possible for Gordon to make education journeys to Austria, France and Italy, in particular to Rome. Gordon returned to Regensburg in 1732. On 24 February 1732 he enrolled as a novice and received the name of "Andreas". In the monastery he began with the study of scholastic philosophy under Gallus Leith, who in 1735 at the Erfurter university was appointed as a Professor for Philosophy. Gordon studied intensely with the Dominican Iselbrecher, where he took also his theological disputation. In the same year Andreas Gordon was entered to the priesthood, afterwards he completed law studies at the Benedictine University of Salzburg, where he studied law and theology. In 1737 he completed his study in philosophy and theology with “excellence” and passed the legal exam with honours. Subsequently, he became a professor of philosophy at the University of Erfurt.

Gordon soon acquired considerable reputation by his works on electricity, among which were Phaenomena electricitatis exposita (1744), Philosophia utilis et jucunda (1745) and Physicae experimentalis elementa (1751–52). 

For the sulphur ball of von Guericke (1671) and the glass globe of Isaac Newton (some say Hauksbee), Gordon substituted a glass cylinder which made an efficient frictional machine. Two other inventions in physics are noteworthy: the first is the light metallic star supported on a sharp pivot with the pointed ends bent at right angles to the rays and commonly called the electrical whirl, the second is the device known as the electric chimes. These inventions used to be described in textbooks of electricity; the name of Gordon was not always mentioned, though both inventions are fully described by him in his Versuch einer Erklarung der Electricitat (Erfurt 1745). Benjamin Franklin, who is usually credited with the latter invention, simply adopted the "German chimes" (described by Watson in his famous Sequel, 1746) to serve as an electrical annunciator in connection with his experimental lightning rod of 1752. The "whirl" was an electrostatic reaction motor, the earliest of its kind; while the second derives its theoretical importance as the first instance of the application of what came to be called electric convection.

Gordon died in Erfurt, Saxony.
