The study of memes, units of cultural information, often involves the examination of meme complexes or memeplexes. Memeplexes, comparable to the gene complexes in biology, consist of a group of memes that are typically present in the same individual. This presence is due to the implementation of Universal Darwinism's theory, which postulates that memes can more effectively reproduce themselves when they collaborate or "team up". 

Various manifestations of memeplexes can be observed in our everyday surroundings, and they usually have a profound impact on shaping individual and societal behaviors. Some of the most common examples include:

 Belief Systems and Ideologies:This refers to a wide array of constructs such as religions, philosophies, political alignments, and overall worldviews. All of these systems are composed of multiple interrelated memes that collectively form a cohesive belief system.
 Organizations and Groups:Entities such as churches, businesses, political parties, and clubs also illustrate memeplexes. These groups often share a common set of principles, rules, or beliefs that are propagated among their members. 
 Behavioral Patterns:These include various cultural practices and routines, such as musical practices, ceremonies, marriage rituals, festivities, hunting techniques, and sports. 

Contrary to inherited gene complexes, memeplexes encounter less pressure to provide benefits to the individuals exhibiting them for their replication. This distinction is due to the fact that memes and memeplexes propagate virally via horizontal transmission, making their survival not solely dependent on the success of their hosts. 

For memes and memeplexes to successfully replicate, they do not necessarily have to be useful, accurate, or factual. As an example, the geocentric model was a widely accepted concept despite its inaccuracies and has since been largely supplanted by more scientifically sound theories. 

Prominent figures like philosopher Daniel C. Dennett, evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins, and consciousness researcher Susan Blackmore, the author of The Meme Machine, advocate for the field of memetics, the study of memes and memeplexes. These thinkers argue that memes and memeplexes have a substantial influence on our thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors, shaping our cultural evolution.

Kavita Mahajan (Marathi: कविता महाजन; 5 September 1967 – 27 September 2018) was an Indian author and translator who wrote in Marathi. She is noted for her critically acclaimed novels Brr (2005), Bhinna (2007) and Kuhoo (2011), as well as a non-fiction work Graffiti Wall (2009). She was the winner of the 2011 translation award conferred by the Sahitya Akademi, India's National Academy of Letters.

Early life and education
Mahajan was born in the city of Nanded in Maharashtra. She was the daughter of S.D. Mahajan, the ex-secretary of Marathi Vishwakosh and the granddaughter of the painter Tryambak Vasekar.

Literary career
Mahajan wrote on themes of social emancipation and against discrimination.  Mahajan's book Brr is a collection of stories about women's sarpanch and their experience after the Panchayati Raj system was implemented whilst she wrote Bhinna to describe the lives of those affected by HIV/AIDS. Both books bring out the politics of representation at three levels – one of the institutions like the Panchayats, the corruption in the non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and the intricacies of human relationships. Mahajan's work focuses on political, social, and economic matters rather than maternal or romantic considerations.

Mahajan's 2011 novel, Kuhoo () dealt with the relationship between human and nature, and was marketed as a 'multimedia novel'. It came with a DVD containing sights and sounds from nature, including a few animations.  She is also renowned for her poetry, including a collection entitled Dhulicha Awaz.  She was awarded Sahitya Akademi Translation Prize (2011)for her translation Rajai, a collection of 17 short stories by Ismat Chughtai which she translated from Urdu into Marathi.

Mahajan also authored children's literature and published a collection of short stories Joyanache Ranga () in 2011. This collection won her the Shashikalatai Agashe Award for Children's Literature in 2013.

Speaking in April 2016 at a programme organised by T.M.A. Pai Chair for Indian Literature at Manipal University, she said: "I am a woman and before that I am a human being. If all are human beings, why is there discrimination? That is a question, which has haunted me from my childhood."

Death 
Mahajan died on 27 September 2018 of pneumonia at the Chellaram Diabetes Hospital.  She was survived by her daughter.

George Addison Norton (April 18, 1880 – November 18, 1923), usually credited as George A. Norton, was an American lyricist and composer of popular songs.

Biography
He was born in St. Louis, Missouri.  His earliest credits came in 1899, with "In the Shenandoah Valley" and "Sing Me a Song of the South", both written with composer James W. Casey (1875–1964). In 1903, Norton's song "Mary from Maryland" was used in a Broadway show, The Girl from Dixie. He found employment with Theron C. Bennett, a music publisher with offices in New York, Memphis, and Denver, and in 1912, at Bennett's request, he rewrote the lyrics to W. C. Handy's "The Memphis Blues", described as "the first commercial blues ever published".

The same year, Norton rewrote the lyrics to another song, "Melancholy", which had been written by a married couple, Maybelle and Ernie Burnett, before they divorced.  Retitled "My Melancholy Baby", the revised song was introduced by William Frawley in Denver and was later recorded successfully by Al Bowlly, Bing Crosby and many others.  Norton also wrote "I'm Goin' Back to Memphis, Tennessee", recorded by Collins & Harlan.   In 1917, he was credited with writing both words and music for "Round her Neck She Wears A Yeller Ribbon (For Her Lover Who is Fur Fur Away)", one of the inspirations for the 1973 song "Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree".

Norton died from tuberculosis in Tucson, Arizona, in 1923, aged 43.

Princess Vittoria Cristina Adelaide Chiara Maria di Savoia (born 28 December 2003) is the heir apparent to the House of Savoy, the former ruling family of the Kingdom of Italy.  She is the first-born child of Emanuele Filiberto, Prince of Venice and Piedmont and Clotilde Courau.

Early life and family
Princess Vittoria was born on 28 December 2003 in Geneva, Switzerland. Her father Emanuele Filiberto, Prince of Venice and Piedmont was then the heir apparent to the Italian throne and her mother Clotilde Courau is a French actress. Her younger sister Princess Luisa was born in 2006. She is the granddaughter of Vittorio Emanuele, Prince of Naples, the current head of the House of Savoy, and his wife Marina Doria. Her great-grandfather, King Umberto II was the last King of Italy before the monarchy was abolished in a 1946 referendum. Her great-grandmother was Marie-José of Belgium, the last Queen of Italy.

Christening
She was christened on 30 May 2004 by Monseigneur Giovanni Cheli at the Basilica of San Francesco d'Assisi in Assisi. Her godparents were Ottavio Mazzola and Roberta Fabbri. The baby wore the christening gown that had been worn by her great-great-grandfather King Vittorio Emanuele III at his christening on 31 May 1869. Among the guests were Prince Albert of Monaco, Princess Maria Beatrice of Savoy, Prince Sergius of Yugoslavia and Princess Mafalda of Hesse, granddaughter of Princess Mafalda of Savoy. The parents selected Assisi in light of its symbolism of peace.

Succession

Princess Vittoria's grandfather, Vittorio Emanuele, Prince of Naples changed the rules of succession which previously only allowed males to be the heir to the throne. Under the rule changes, Princess Vittoria, as the first born child of her father will one day succeed him as the Head of the House of Savoy. Her parents had never produced a male heir, but had two daughters. Despite being the heir to the now defunct Italian throne, she lives in Paris in neighboring France. The current line of succession within the House of Savoy is disputed by Prince Aimone, 6th Duke of Aosta. 

In June of 2023, her father Emanuele Filiberto, Prince of Venice announced he would abdicate his claim as heir apparent in favor of Princess Vittoria. This makes Princess Vittoria the heir apparent to the head of the House of Savoy. She will become the first woman to lead the House of Savoy.

Ravenous Records, a division of Ravenous Entertainment, was formed in 1998 by Jim Steinman and Steven Rinkoff. Rinkoff best explained the purpose of the label (and how it went wrong) in a May 2005 interview with BroadwayWorld.com, "Jim and I have a label called Ravenous Records where initially the idea was just to find great singers for Jim's songs, and as hard as that could be, we somehow got skewed into finding people that were writing their own songs, and then we became a label where we were putting out artists that had nothing to do with Jim's music."

Nicki French was signed to the label in 2000, during which time she recorded two tracks "Lovers Again" (a cover of a Bonnie Tyler track) and "Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad" (Meat Loaf cover),  both of which never got released commercially.

Currently, the label is inactive, and is owned by Sony Music Entertainment.
