Semisulcospira kurodai is a species of freshwater snail with an operculum, an aquatic gastropod mollusk in the family Semisulcospiridae. Prior to 2009, this species was classified in the family Pleuroceridae.

Distribution 
This species occurs in Japan.

Description 
The maximum width of the shell of Semisulcospira kurodai is  and  in height in the laboratory. The maximum weight of the animal is  in the laboratory.

The width of the shell is  in the first year,  in the second year,  in the third year and  in the fourth year in the laboratory.

The diploid chromosome number of Semisulcospira kurodai is 2n=35 and 2n=36 (both chromosome numbers were observed).

Ecology

Habitat 
Semisulcospira kurodai lives in rivers and in ponds.

The bonnacon (also called bonasus or bonacho) is a legendary creature described as a bull with inward-curving horns and a horse-like mane. Medieval bestiaries usually depict its fur as reddish-brown or black. Because its horns were useless for self-defense, the bonnacon was said to expel large amounts of caustic feces from its anus at its pursuers, burning them and thereby ensuring its escape.

Textual history
The first known description of the bonnacon comes from Pliny the Elder's Naturalis Historia:

The term is derived from Greek βόνᾱσος (bonasos), meaning "bison".

The popularity of the Naturalis Historia in the Middle Ages led to the bonnacon's inclusion in medieval bestiaries. In the tradition of the Physiologus, bestiaries often ascribed moral and scriptural lessons to the descriptions of animals, but the bonnacon gained no such symbolic meaning. Manuscript illustrations of the creature may have served as a source of humor, deriving as much from the reaction of the hunters as from the act of defecation.  The Aberdeen Bestiary describes the creature using similar language to Pliny, though the beast's location is moved from Paeonia to Asia:

The bonnacon is also mentioned in the life of Saint Martha in the Golden Legend, a 13th-century hagiographical work by Jacobus de Voragine. In the story, Saint Martha encounters and tames the Tarasque, a dragon-like legendary creature said to be the offspring of the biblical Leviathan and the bonnacon. In this account, the bonnacon (here: bonacho or onacho) is said to originate in Galatia.

GESMES/TS (GEneric Statistical MESsage for Time Series) is a data model and message format
appropriate for performing standardised exchange of statistical data and related metadata.
It is based on the GESMES message (a UN/CEFACT standard using the EDIFACT syntax).
Its most common use is in the exchange of official statistics.

The data model is optimised to represent multi-dimensional arrays of floating point numerical data where one dimension is time.
The essential design pattern resembles a star schema.
GESMES/TS promotes automation by its ability to explicitly declare the dimensions and allowable metadata fields in a standardised way.
Software can then translate these declarations into a database schema suitable to hold the multi-dimensional data.
This mechanism makes GESMES/TS versatile enough for efficient use in many domains.

The initial name of GESMES/TS was GESMES/CB (GEneric Statistical MESsage for Central Banks),
but has been changed in order to reflect its wider application.
The model and format are maintained under the auspices of the SDMX initiative.
In this context, GESMES/TS is known as SDMX-EDI.

Louise Slade was a food scientist known for her work on food polymer science. She was an elected fellow of the Institute of Food Technologists and of the American Association of Cereal Chemists.

Education and career 
Slade was born in South Carolina in 1946 and was a dancer who briefly attended the Juilliard School. She moved on to Barnard College, first interested in botany but dissuaded by the low level of available funding so she instead studied biochemistry, and received her bachelor's degree in 1968. She went on to earn a Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1974, and subsequently was a postdoc at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign where she was an NIH-funded postdoctoral fellow working with Gregorio Weber. She started working at General Foods as a scientist in 1979. She retired from Kraft Foods in 2006, and in 2018 she became affiliated with the Monell Chemical Senses Center in Philadelphia.

Research 
Slade is known for her work establishing the use of polymer science to the study processes in food, a field she called "food polymer science". Much of her work was a collaborative effort with Harry Levine, who was also her life partner. They started working together at General Foods where her focus had been frozen dough and his expertise was in frozen desserts. Their first paper "A Food Polymer Science Approach to the Practice of Cryostabilization Technology" set the stage for using polymer science to understand how food would respond to time and changes in temperature, especially with a focus on the role of water within the food. Her work allowed foods such as ice cream that is soft enough to eat, flavors stored in small beads, stabilized wheat for biscuits that are stored for long periods of time, cookies with low moisture content, baked chips that taste as if they have been fried, and a reduced calorie flour replacement. Over the course of her career, Slade filed 47 patents, which she estimated earned her employers more than $1 billion.

Selected publications

Awards and honors 
From the Institute of Food Technologists, she and Harry Levine received the Industrial Scientist Award in 1999 and she was elected a fellow in 2016. Slade has also received multiple honors from the American Association of Cereal Chemists (AACC, now called the Cereal & Grains Association), including receiving the Halverson Award from the Milling and Baking Division in 2007, and receiving the 2008 Applied Research Award whereby she was also elected a fellow of the organization. In 2019, Slade presented the  Alsberg-French-Schoch Memorial Lectureship at the Cereal & Grain Association's annual meeting.

In 2006, a group at Washington State University established strain of wheat which they called it Triticum aestivum 'Louise' to honor Slade and her niece, Kriquet 'Louise' Kidwell.

In 2018, a three-day symposium entitled  "Water in Foods Symposium in Honor of Louise Slade and Harry Levine" was held at the American Chemical Society Annual meeting.

Dyffryn Ardudwy railway station serves the villages of Dyffryn Ardudwy, Coed Ystumgwern and Llanenddwyn in Gwynedd, Wales.

Dyffryn Ardudwy gives its name to the district and to the very extensive beach and sand dunes on the coast nearby that are known as Morfa Dyffryn.

History
The station was opened on 10 October 1867 by the Cambrian Railway Company as Dyffryn.

The station once had two platforms and was a passing place for trains between Harlech and Barmouth. There was a goods yard to the east of the station.

On 1 July 1924 it was renamed Dyffryn-on-Sea. The station was host to a GWR camp coach from 1934 to 1939. 

On 1 June 1948 was renamed to its present name. A camping coach was also positioned here by the Western Region from 1956 to 1962. In 1963 the administration of camping coaches at the station was taken over by the London Midland, there was a coach here from 1963 to 1964.

The station was destaffed when the passing loop was taken out of use in 1968. The redundant track remained in place until 1980 as did a signal that had been converted to a fixed distant.  All trains now use the down platform. The station building on the up platform is today a dwelling.

In 2016, The Welsh Government funded the installation of reinforced glass fibre 'humps' on the platforms to improve access for wheelchair and pushchair users onto and off trains.

Services
The station is an unstaffed halt on the Cambrian Coast Railway with passenger services to Harlech, Porthmadog, Pwllheli, Barmouth, Machynlleth and Shrewsbury. Most trains call only on request.
