Abaporu (from Tupi language "",  (man) +  (people) +  (to eat), ) is an oil painting on canvas by Brazilian painter Tarsila do Amaral. It was painted as a birthday gift to writer Oswald de Andrade, who was her husband at the time.

It is considered the most valuable painting by a Brazilian artist, having reached the value of $1.4 million, paid by Argentine collector Eduardo Costantini in an auction in 1995. It is currently displayed at the Latin American Art Museum of Buenos Aires (Spanish: Museo de Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires, MALBA) in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The composition: one man, the sun and a cactus – inspired Oswald de Andrade to write the Manifesto Antropófago and consequently create the Anthropophagic Movement, intended to "swallow" foreign culture and turn it into something culturally Brazilian.

The painting
Tarsila described the subject of the painting as "a monstrous solitary figure, enormous feet, sitting on a green plain, the hand supporting the featherweight minuscule head. In front a cactus exploding in an absurd flower." This "monstrous"  figure is, in fact, human. An unadorned, undressed, sexless, and ageless human whose anatomy has been distorted. Beginning with a huge foot and hand at the bottom of the picture, the figure slowly shrinks to a tiny head at the top.

The background of the painting suggests a natural setting. Here, earth is depicted as a simple small green mound upon which the subject sits. The vegetation is represented  by a cactus at the right of the figure and a golden sun or flower which crowns the composition. The sky is a plain pale blue background.

The style of Abaporu can be traced back to the French modernists, specially Fernand Léger, who taught Tarsila in Paris in 1924. However, the closest resemblance of Abaporu can be found in the Spanish Surrealists, Pablo Picasso and Joan Miró, who also painted a figure with an oversized foot in 1924.

Provenance
After Tarsila's death in 1973, the painting passed to Pietro Maria Bardi's art gallery, who sold it to the art collector Érico Stickel. In 1984 the painting was purchased by the amount of $250,000 by Raul de Souza Dantas Forbes, who then auctioned the painting at Christie's New York City, in 1995.

The Miss Universe New Zealand is the New Zealand national Beauty pageant which feeds into the international Miss Universe competition. Qualification for Miss Universe New Zealand is based on regional pageants and/or personal interviews (necessary due to lack of regional pageant in some areas).

History
New Zealanders  have contested 44 Miss Universe pageants since its inception in 1952 and is one of 33 countries to win the title. After no entrants were sent to Miss Universe in 2004 and 2005, a new national pageant, Miss Universe New Zealand, was created in 2006.

New Zealand's most successful entrant came in 1983 when Lorraine Downes won the Miss Universe title. The country's only other top five placing came when Delyse Nottle was second runner-up to Shawn Weatherly in 1980. New Zealand has also had three semi-finalist placings, in 1962, 1981 and 1992.

New Zealand is one of only 12 countries to win two or more Miss Photogenic awards,  won by Carole Robinson (1969), Delyse Nottle (1980), and Samantha MacClung (2015).

The pageant will allow between the ages of 18 and 27 and are a New Zealand citizen.

Titleholders

The winner of Miss Universe New Zealand represents her country at the Miss Universe pageant. On occasion, when the winner does not qualify (due to age) for either contest, a runner-up is sent.

Notes

Miss World
The delegates who represented New Zealand at Miss Universe 1992-1996 also represented New Zealand at Miss World the year before they competed at Miss Universe. The only one of these delegates to place at Miss World was Lisa Marie de Montaulk, who was a semi-finalist in both pageants.

Dick Wilson was an Australian professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1960s. He played for Balmain in the New South Wales Rugby League (NSWRL) competition.

Playing career
Wilson made his first grade debut for Balmain in 1960. In 1963, Wilson was selected to play for New South Wales and played in one game against Queensland which New South Wales won convincingly 31-5. At club level, Wilson played in Balmain's semi final defeat against Parramatta.

Balmain reached the 1964 NSWRL grand final by defeating North Sydney and then Parramatta in the preliminary final. The opponents in the grand final were the all conquering St George side. Wilson played at hooker in the final as Balmain took a shock halftime lead over St George before Saints came back in the second half to win 11-6 at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

Wilson played with Balmain until the end of the 1966 season. He missed out selection in the 1966 NSWRL grand final against St George which Balmain lost. Wilson was then controversially sacked by the Balmain club after it was revealed that he had been betting on matches. Wilson's former teammate Arthur Beetson later came to the defense of Wilson citing hypocrisy from the NSWRL board. Wilson died on 15 January 2000.

The Battle at Khore (, ) was fought between the Kalhora tribe and the Mughal Empire in approximately 1699 AD in the village of Khore. Today, that village is known as Torre, and it lies on the Nai Gaj, an ephemeral river, near Johi Taluka in Dadu District, Sindh, Pakistan. Prince Muhammad Mu'izuddin, the then-governor of Multan and Lahore, came from Lahore and attacked Sindh. Mian Deen Muhammad Kalhoro, who had succeeded his father Mian Naseer Muhammad Kalhoro in 1692 AD, wanted to compromise and surrender, but his younger brother, Mian Yar Muhammad Kalhoro, refused, leading to a battle. The Mughal army was commanded by Gaj Singh Bhatti, Raja Surajmal Udhepuri, and Raja Udhey Singh (who died over the course of the battle). However, the Mughal army defeated the Kalhora force.

Jeffrey C. Smith (born December 6, 1949) is an American attorney and politician who served as a Republican member of the Mississippi House of Representatives from 1992 to 2020.

Early life and education 
Smith was born and raised in Columbus, Mississippi. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Mississippi State University and a Juris Doctor from the University of Missouri School of Law.

Career 
Smith served as a prosecutor for Lowndes County from 1980 to 1989. He was elected to the Mississippi House of Representatives in November 1991 and assumed office in January 1992. Smith switched from the Democratic Party to the Republicans on June 1, 2011, later explaining that he decided to become a Republican because the Republicans had recruited a candidate to run against him in the upcoming election for House speaker.

Following Speaker William McCoy's decision not to run for re-election in 2011, Smith had been considered a possible frontrunner for the speakership. He lost the 2008 speaker election, in which he was supported by the Republicans; by some Democrats who (like Smith) have since bolted the party; and by Republican governor Haley Barbour by a single vote. The House voted on a new speaker at the start of the 2012 session. A narrow margin of power for either party following the election could force lawmakers to form a coalition in order to elect a new speaker. In the end, however, Philip Gunn was elected speaker without opposition.

Elections

2007
On November 6, 2007 Smith was re-elected in District 39. He defeated James Samuel in the Democratic primary election and ran unopposed in the general election.

2011
Smith was unopposed for re-election (as a Republican) in the 2011 election for Mississippi House of Representatives District 39. He defeated Jack Larmour in the Republican primary on August 2, 2011. No Democratic candidates filed to run for election, and he was re-elected in general election on November 8, 2011.

Personal life
Smith is president of Swim Columbus and is a deacon of the First Baptist Church in Columbus. He is married to Laura Terrell and they have a son named Corky.

The North Bersted Man is the modern name given to a warrior found in a burial at excavations by the Thames Valley Archaeological services made in 2008 near North Bersted. The burial contained an exceptional set of objects. It was found within settlement remains that date from the Iron Age to the Roman period. The burial of the North Bersted Man dates to the first century BC.

The buried man was about 45 years old at the age of death and was once about 1.72 m tall. At the head end of the burial, three well preserved pottery vessels were found. Two further vessels were found at the legs. On the left side of the skeleton a set of armors were discovered. They include a sword that was bent when placed into the burial. There was a bronze shield boss, evidently coming from a wooden shield. The wood did not survive. There was also found a spear. The most remarkable object was the helmet of the warrior. It was adorned with two crests that once ran across the top of the helmet and down its back. The crests consist of sheets of bronze and are adorned with an openwork decoration.

The finds from the burial are on display in the Novium Museum in Chichester.

Robin van Kampen (born 14 November 1994) is a Dutch chess grandmaster. At the age of 14, he won the Dutch U20 Championship. He achieved his grandmaster (GM) title at the age of 16 years, 8 months and 17 days. Van Kampen has represented the Netherlands at the 2013 European Team Chess Championship, and at the 41st and 42nd Chess Olympiad.

Chess career
Robin van Kampen was born in the Netherlands in the city of Blaricum and brought up in Bussum. He began playing chess at the age of seven and competing in club chess at the age of 8.

Dutch Youth Chess Championships 
Robin van Kampen was Dutch youth champion for four consecutive years: in the under 12 division in 2006, under 14 in 2007, under 16 in 2008 and under 20 in 2009. This year-after-year domination of all Dutch players in his division class was punctuated with his 2009 victory matching Jan Timman's 1966 record for youngest ever Dutch Champion in the under 20 section. He was coached by Pascal Losekoot from 8 to 11 years of age.

Rising to Grandmaster title 
He was awarded the title of FIDE Master (FM) in 2008. In 2009, he achieved his first International Master (IM) norm at the Batavia Chess Tournament, a round-robin event in Amsterdam. Van Kampen earned his third and last IM norm at the Atlantis Chess Closed Tournament in 2009. In October 2009, FIDE officially awarded him the IM title, thus becoming the youngest Dutch IM in history, a distinction he still holds.

At the end of 2009, at the Groningen Chess Festival, the newly-minted IM played a four-game match with Timman, losing by 2.5-1.5 after a last-round defeat and exchanging wins in the first two rounds.

On 31 July 2011 van Kampen won the Helmut-Kohls Tournament in Dortmund, Germany (a closed GM tournament), where he also earned his final GM norm.  By doing so he became the youngest Dutch chess player to qualify for the GM title, at the age of 16 years, 8 months and 17 days. This record has since been broken by Jorden van Foreest.

Tournament results 
In 2010, he made his debut at the traditional Wijk aan Zee Corus Chess Tournament in the Grandmaster Group C, sharing 3rd–4th place with Daniele Vocaturo. In 2012, he shared victory with Hrant Melkumyan in the London Chess Classic FIDE Open.

In 2013, he placed second in the N1 Reykjavik Open, scoring half point behind Li Chao. That year he tied for first in the Basel Chess Festival and Riga Technical University Open. He also contributed to Guildford's victory at the 4NCL, scoring 8/9.

In 2015, van Kampen placed fourth in the Challengers group of the 77th Tata Steel Chess Tournament in Wijk aan Zee, behind Wei Yi, David Navara and Sam Shankland.

Online
Kampen streams as one of the Chessbrahs, along with other GMs such as Eric Hansen and Aman Hambleton.
