Flávio Augusto do Nascimento (born 29 June 1986 in Bossoroca RS), commonly known as Flávio Caça-Rato or simply Caça-Rato  (), is a Brazilian footballer who last played as a forward for Decisão.

Personal drama
When Caça Rato was 8, his father came home drunk and tried to hang him. When he was almost being hanged his uncle saved him.

Caça-Rato was also shot twice on 1 August 2010 in the town of Campina Barreto, Pernambuco. The incident took place during a party after a Timbauba match — the team he played for at the time. Flavio got caught in an argument with two men, and one of them pulled a gun and shot him in the right leg and on the back. After staying in a hospital, Flavio was medicated and discharged. He started playing football again after a month.

Evan Chambers (born 1963, in Alexandria, Louisiana) is a composer, traditional Irish fiddler, and Professor of Composition at the University of Michigan. He received a Doctorate in music composition from the University of Michigan. His teachers include William Albright for whose Requiem he composed Lament, Leslie Bassett, Nicholas Thorne, and Marilyn Shrude, with studies in electronic music with George Wilson and Burton Beerman. He is a member of the Lindisfarne Association.

Chambers' compositions are deeply rooted in folk music, his own spirituality, and a keen comprehension of musical gesture and form. His works for large ensemble include The Old Burying Ground for soprano, tenor, folksinger and orchestra, Concerto for Fiddle and Violin for Irish fiddler, violin soloist, and orchestra; Three Islands for orchestra; The Tall-Eared Fox and the Wild-Eyed Man for string orchestra; and Polka Nation for wind ensemble. His chamber music includes Come Down Heavy, Cold Water, Dry Stone and Crazed for the Flame. His electronic music compositions include Rothko-Tobey Continuum for violin and tape and Cell Phone Java Bodhi Svaha, with video by Andy Kirshner based on Buddhist-themed poetry by Chambers.

Chambers' music has been recorded on the compact disks The Old Burying Ground (Dorian Sono Luminus DSL-92113), Cold Water, Dry Stone (Albany, Troy 422), Brutal Reality (Albany, Troy 354), Simple Requests (Cambria CD-1088),  "Collaborations" (Equilibrium CD-66), Alternating Currents (Centaur CRC 2492) and "Beyond the Red Line" (Mark Custom MCD-6537).

In 2021, when University of Michigan composition faculty member Bright Sheng screened 90 minutes of Laurence Olivier's blackface performance of Othello for his undergraduate seminar without context or discussion, the students petitioned for his removal from the class and Evan Chambers gave the following quote to the campus newspaper:  “To show the film now, especially without substantial framing, content advisory and a focus on its inherent racism is in itself a racist act, regardless of the professor’s intentions. We need to acknowledge that as a community.”

George Chance (15 May 1885 – 28 September 1963) was a New Zealand pictorialist photographer active in the early 20th century. He is best known for his photographs of landscape and rural scenes produced during the 1920s and 1930s.

Early life

Chance was born on 15 May 1885, in Liverpool, England. He took his first photographs at the age of 12, with a three-penny pinhole camera. Later, his father would give him a Thornton-Pickard half-plate camera. In 1901, the young Chance joined Houghtons Limited, a photography supplier, as a showroom demonstrator. His next job was as a photography tutor for The London Stereoscopic Company of Regent Street, around 1904. In this position he taught photography to a number of notable figures of the time, including Winston Churchill, George Bernard Shaw, Francis Greville, 5th Earl of Warwick, Prince Vajiravudh (then the Crown Prince of Siam), Lord Curzon, Lord Roberts and W.S. Gilbert.

In 1905, Chance was the photographer on an ill-fated expedition to recover the Cocos Island Treasure, which apparently led to him being present for an unspecified "revolution" in Ecuador as well as an earthquake, events which supplied him with a supply of adventurous anecdotes later in his life.

Career

Chance emigrated to New Zealand in 1909, by which time he was a qualified optometrist, and was employed by Dawson's Limited of Dunedin. He became the president of the Dunedin Optical Association in 1913, and joined the Dunedin Photographic Society in 1917. By 1919, Chance was exhibiting his photographs to some critical success, and continued to build his practice over the following decades, eventually going on to become a household name in New Zealand. Chance claimed at one point to have sold over 30,000 photographs both within New Zealand and overseas.

Style

Chance was amongst the first photographers to import pictorialism to New Zealand, after being influenced by the work of Alfred Horsley Hinton and the Linked Ring group. Chance's photographic style is in keeping with the pictorialist ethos, which sought to elevate photography to the status of fine art by adopting a deliberately "painterly" technique and subject matter. Many of his works contain trees, a subject for which he had a special fondness. In addition to landscapes, Chance also photographed scenes of rural life, portraits and architectural subjects in Dunedin and Christchurch.

Legacy

Chance's work is significant because it represents an early example of New Zealand photography being treated as fine art; prior to the turn of the century, photographers such as the Burton Brothers and George Valentine mainly produced images as souvenirs for the tourist trade or as family keepsakes, not as art objects in their own right.

Sense and Sensibility is a 1995 British period drama film directed by Ang Lee. Actress Emma Thompson wrote the screenplay, which is based on the 1811 novel of the same name by English author Jane Austen. Thompson and Kate Winslet starred as the Dashwood sisters among a large ensemble cast. Columbia Pictures, a Sony Pictures Entertainment subsidiary, produced and released the film. Sense and Sensibility was released to cinemas on 15 December 1995, and earned a total worldwide gross of $134,582,776. Based on 67 reviews from film critics, the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes has calculated Sense and Sensibilitys approval rating to be 97%, deeming it "certified fresh".

Sense and Sensibility garnered various accolades following its release, ranging from the main cast's performances to Thompson's screenwriting. The adaptation received seven Academy Award nominations including the Academy Award for Best Picture, though the sole win that night was for the Academy Award for Best Writing (Adapted Screenplay), the only time a person has earned Oscars for both acting and writing. Thompson's screenwriting collected a further eleven accolades, including those given by the Broadcast Film Critics Association, Golden Globe Awards, and London Critics Circle. At the 49th British Academy Film Awards, Sense and Sensibility garnered twelve BAFTA nominations, ultimately coming away with three awards including the BAFTA Award for Best Film; Thompson and Winslet won the BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role and BAFTA Award for Best Actress in a Supporting Role, respectively.

The cast also received numerous acting accolades. In addition to her writing credit, Thompson was recognized for her performance, and earned seven nominations. Winslet was recognized in categories for both lead and supporting actress, for instance winning the Evening Standard Award for Best Actress as well as the Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role. Other than the Academy Awards, the overall film garnered numerous nominations, ultimately winning the Boston Society of Film Critics Award for Best Film, Broadcast Film Critics Association Award for Best Film, and Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Drama, among other accolades. Sense and Sensibility received the most award recognition out of the many Austen adaptations of the 1990s. MaryAnn Johanson of Film.com named it the fifth best film of 1995.

Mount Duemler () is a mountain,  high, rising southwest of the head of Anthony Glacier and 11 nautical miles (20 km) west of Mount Bailey, 4 nautical miles (7 km) southwest from Brand Peak inland from the east coast of Palmer Land. This feature was first chartered by the British Graham Land Expedition under John Rymill in 1936–37. It was photographed from the air by the United States Antarctic Service in 1940, and the Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE) under Finn Ronne in 1947, and recharted in 1947 by a joint sledge party consisting of members of the RARE and the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey. It was named by Ronne for R.F. Duemler, vice president of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Coal Co., New York City, which contributed coal to the expedition.

Player's Secrets of Roesone is a supplement to the 2nd edition of the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons fantasy role-playing game.

Contents
Player's Secrets of Roesone is a sourcebook for the Birthright campaign setting, part of the "Player's Secrets" line.

Publication history
Player's Secrets of Roesone was published by TSR, Inc. in 1995.

Reception
Cliff Ramshaw reviewed Player's Secrets of Roesone for Arcane magazine, rating it a 7 out of 10 overall. He finds suited "for the warlike character is Roesone, a state recently carved out from bandit lands. Baron Tael to the north reckons one of your provinces ought to belong to him; the Count of said province agrees." Ramshaw comments on the series at a whole, that "these sourcebooks are a bit overpriced and some of the history behind the domains is hackneyed or tedious. But all the sourcebooks help you to create believable worlds, with enough conflicting agencies to create strong and imaginative plotlines for years to come."

Israeli Transverse Mercator (ITM), also known as the New Israel Grid (NIG;  Reshet Yisra'el Ha-Ḥadasha) is the new geographic coordinate system for Israel.  The name is derived from the transverse Mercator projection it uses and the fact that it is optimized for Israel. ITM has replaced the old coordinate system Israeli Cassini Soldner (ICS), also known as the Old Israel Grid (OIG). It became 
the official grid for Israel in 1998.

The need for a new grid
ITM replaced the Old Israel Grid (OIG) (), also known as the Israel Cassini Soldner (ICS), which was based on the Cassini-Soldner projection. ICS in turn was a simple modification of the Palestine grid used during the British mandate. The central meridian in the new projection, as in the old one, crosses through Jerusalem. The new grid has two main advantages. One is that the Transverse Mercator projection is better for navigation than Cassini-Soldner. The other is that ICS was based on a 19th-century reference ellipsoid (approximation of the shape of the Earth) and this was replaced by a more accurate approximation.

Additional information on the creation of the new grid is available in Hebrew.

Examples

An ITM coordinate is generally given as a pair of six digit numbers (excluding any digits behind a decimal point which may be used in very precise surveying). The first number is always the Easting and the second is the Northing. The easting and northing are in metres from the false origin.

The ITM coordinate for the Western Wall at Jerusalem is 222286 632556, which means

E 222286 m
N 631556 m

The first figure is the easting and means that the location is 222,286 meters east from the false origin (along the X axis). The second figure is the northing and puts the location 631,556 meters north of the false origin (along the Y axis). Also notice how the easting in this example is indicated with an “E” and likewise an “N” for the northing.

The table below shows the same coordinate in 3 different grids:
