Nashville Pride is a non-profit based in Nashville, Tennessee that produces a yearly LGBT Pride Festival. Its goal is to celebrate the existence and identity of the LGBT community and "connect people with the services and resources that they need in order to thrive" according to Nashville Pride's Community Affairs Director Phil Cobucci. It is the largest LGBT event based in Tennessee.

History
The first Nashville pride parade took place in June 1988 with help from the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force; about 250 people marched from Fannie Mae Dees Park to Centennial Park. National attention was garnered by the festival in 2010 when headlining entertainer, Vanessa Carlton, came out to the attendees; she began her set by saying "I've never said this before, but I am a proud bisexual woman." The 2015 festival drew an estimated 15,000–20,000 people, making it the largest gathering since the event began.  Records continued to be shattered in subsequent years and the 2018 Nashville Pride festival boasted 35,000 attendees over a two-day period, with nearly 8,000 marching in the Equality Walk. The 2019 festival drew a record crowd of over 75,000 people for two days of planned events.

The festival and march were canceled in 2020 and delayed in 2021 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic; the delayed festival, held in September 2021, required COVID-19 vaccinations or a negative test result but nonetheless gathered thousands of attendees and around 100 booths operated by LBGT-supporting businesses and nonprofits. However, due to heavy rain at the Bicentennial Mall venue, the festival was reduced to a one-day event. The festival was held two weeks after a same-sex couple was denied a tour of a wedding venue in Nashville, which Nashville Pride's Phil Cobucci labeled a discriminatory act.

Opoczki  is a village in the administrative district of Gmina Aleksandrów Kujawski, within Aleksandrów County, Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship, in north-central Poland. It lies  west of Aleksandrów Kujawski and  south of Toruń. It is located in the region of Kuyavia.

History
During World War II, Opoczki was occupied by Germany. The Germans renamed it to Kleinottingen in attempt to erase traces of Polish origin. In 1939–1940, they carried out expulsions of Poles, whose farms were then handed over to Germans as part of the Lebensraum policy. Expelled Poles were either deported to the General Government in the more eastern part of German-occupied Poland or enslaved as forced labour of German colonists in the area.

Felix Endrich (5 December 1921 – 31 January 1953) was a Swiss bobsledder who competed in the late 1940s and early 1950s. Competing in two Winter Olympics, he won the gold medal along with brakeman Fritz Waller in the two-man event at the 1948 Winter Olympics in St. Moritz.

Career
As a pilot, Endrich won four medals in the two-man event at the FIBT World Championships with two golds (1949, 1953), one silver (1947), and one bronze (1951).

Endrich was killed at the 1953 FIBT World Championships in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, West Germany during the four-man competition when the sled he was driving hurtled over a wall and crashed into a tree. He suffered a broken neck in the collision and was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital in Garmisch-Partenkirchen. He had also won the two-man world championship a week earlier.

Joseph T. Davis is a former professional footballer who played as a defender for Bristol Rovers and Swansea Town (now known as Swansea City).

Davis was discovered playing youth football for Soundwell, and was signed by Bristol Rovers in 1960. He spent seven years with The Pirates and played 211 League games, scoring four times, and was the club captain in the mid-1960s.

He moved to Swansea Town in March 1967, but suffered a career-ending Achilles tendon injury having made 38 league appearances for the Welsh club, whereupon he returned to Bristol Rovers as a youth development coach and scout. While coaching Rovers' youth players he worked with a group of players including Paul Randall, Gary Penrice and Ian Holloway.

After ten years working as a coach and scout Davis left Rovers in 1978 and became a newsagent for approximately 18 months, before working for the Bristol Evening Post where he remained for thirty years.

Caladenia valida, commonly known as the robust spider orchid, is a plant in the orchid family Orchidaceae and is endemic to south-eastern continental Australia. It is a ground orchid with a single sparsely hairy leaf and up to three white to cream-coloured flowers which sometimes have red streaks. It is similar to Caladenia reticulata but is large and taller with more stiffly spreading lateral sepals and petals.

Description
Caladenia valida is a terrestrial,  perennial, deciduous, herb with an underground tuber and a single sparsely hairy leaf, 100–150 mm long and 10–25 mm wide with red blotches near its base. One, two or three flowers up to 70 mm wide are borne on a hairy spike 200–400 mm high. The sepals have dark red, club-like glandular tips 3–5 mm long. The dorsal sepal is erect or curved forward, 35–50 mm long and about 3 mm wide. The lateral sepals are 35–50 mm long and about 4 mm wide and curve stiffly downwards. The petals are 35–45 mm long, 2–3 mm wide and curve downwards. The labellum is cream-coloured to white, 12–15 mm long, 9–11 mm wide with red markings. The sides of the labellum have reddish teeth up to 2 mm long, the tip of the labellum is curved downwards and there are four or six rows of reddish calli up to about 1 mm long, along its mid-line. Flowering occurs in September and October.

Caladenia reticulata is similar and C. valida was originally described as a variety of it but is a larger, taller orchid with more stiffly spreading sepals and petals and is pollinated by different species of thynnid wasp - C. reticulata is pollinated by Phymatothynnus victor and C. valida by Phymatothynnus pygidialis.

Taxonomy and naming
This orchid was first formally described in 1942 by William Henry Nicholls who gave it the name Caladenia reticulata var. valida. The type specimen was collected near Portland and the description was published in The Victorian Naturalist. In 1989 Mark Clements and David Jones raised it to species status in Australian Orchid Research. The specific epithet (valida) is a Latin word meaning "strong" or "powerful" although Nicholls did not give a reason for applying this name.

Distribution and habitat
The robust spider orchid occurs in Victoria and South Australia where it grows in coastal, or near-coastal heath. In Victoria it grows near Portland and Anglesea and in South Australia on Kangaroo Island and southern Fleurieu Peninsula.

Conservation
Caladenia valida is listed as "endangered" under the Victorian Government Flora and Fauna Guarantee Act 1988 and under the Government of South Australia National Parks and Wildlife Act 1972.

Ray Congdon De Yoe (April 17, 1876 -  September 25, 1933), also known as Ray C. De Yoe served in the California State Assembly for the 48th district from 1929 to 1931. He was president of the Carmel Realty Company and had real estate holdings in Monterey County, California, including the De Yoe Building in Carmel built by Michael J. Murphy.

Early life
De Yoe was born in Alamo Township, Michigan on April 17, 1876, to Anson Serinar Deyoe (1845–1906) and Rosette J. Congdon (1854–1908). In 1879, his parents moved to San Luis Obispo county. De Yoe served in the Spanish–American War.

He married Maud May (1877-1954) on June 30, 1913, in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California. They had one child. At age 42, during World War I, De Yoe registered for the draft at the local board for Monterey County.

Career

Political life
On November 7, 1928, De Yoe won the election in the California State Assembly for the California's 48th State Assembly district. He served from 1929 to 1931. In April 1929, DeYoe introduced legislature for a bill that he and Carmel city attorney Argyll Campbell drew up, to allow the formation of public airport districts for Monterey, Pacific Grove, and Carmel. De Yoe was a member of the Livestock and Dairy Committee and helped pass the law which gave dairymen payment by the state for cattle condemned and slaughtered because of tuberculosis.

De Yoe ran again for the Assembly in November 1930, against Chris N. Jespersen for the California's 43rd State Assembly district of Monterey and San Luis Obispo County. His campaign was backed by Carmel Martin, Monterey attorney, and a large group of Monterey County  citizens. He lost to Jespersen, who received the majority of the votes.

Real estate
De Yoe was president of the Carmel Realty Company and had real estate holdings in Monterey County, California, including the Tudor Revival De Yoe Building (1924); the Art Shop, later called Tuck Box (1926), and adjacent property; and the Spanish Eclectic Las Tiendas Building (1930) in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, all designed and built by Michael J. Murphy. The De Yoe building on Dolores Stsreet was the home of the Carmel Pine Cone offices and the Carmelita Hat Shoppe.

Death
De Yoe died on September 25, 1933 in Carmel, at age 57, from an infection that started when he scratched his finger on a rose bush. A funeral service was held at Carmel. The Carmel Pine Cone reported that "every business in his village, closed its doors for the hour of his funeral."

Selaginella cinerascens is a species of spikemoss known by the common names mesa spikemoss, gray spikemoss, and ashy spikemoss. It is native to Baja California as well as some locations just north of the border in San Diego County, California. It grows in dry habitat, often on clay soil, both in open areas and in the shade of larger plants. This lycophyte forms mats of spreading, forking stems up to 18 centimeters long. The plant is often gray or brown in color, forming a dull-colored carpet on the substrate. The linear or lance-shaped leaves are 1 to 3 millimeters long and lack bristles at the tips. The leaves are green when new or moist. They are flattened to the stem or stick out just a little. The strobili borne at the leaf bases are yellow in color and no more than 4 to 5 millimeters long.

The Hofmillerstraße, named after the critic and translator, Josef Hofmiller (1872–1933), is a street in the Munich district of Obermenzing, which was built around 1897.

History 
The street, originally called IV. Apfelallee, is a west-east oriented street of the Villenkolonie Pasing II, which connects the Alte Allee with the Marschnerstraße. The Hofmillerstraße, until the First World War, was first built up with a loose construction of single-family houses. In the last decades, the vacant lots have been built up with blocks of flats.

In the spring of 2016 the road received a new bitumen cover.

The enzyme carboxylesterase (or carboxylic-ester hydrolase, EC 3.1.1.1; systematic name carboxylic-ester hydrolase) catalyzes reactions of the following form:

a carboxylic ester + H2O  an alcohol + a carboxylate

Most enzymes from this group are serine hydrolases belonging to the superfamily of proteins with α/β hydrolase fold. Some exceptions include an esterase with β-lactamase-like structure ().

Carboxylesterases are widely distributed in nature, and are common in mammalian liver. Many participate in phase I metabolism of xenobiotics such as toxins or drugs; the resulting carboxylates are then conjugated by other enzymes to increase solubility and eventually excreted. The essential polyunsaturated fatty acid arachidonic acid (AA C20H32O2; 20:4, n-6), formed by the synthesis from dietary linoleic acid (LA: C18H32O2 18:2, n-6), has a role as a human carboxylesterase inhibitor.

The carboxylesterase family of evolutionarily related proteins (those with clear sequence homology to each other) includes a number of proteins with different substrate specificities, such as acetylcholinesterases.

Examples 

 acetylcholinesterase
 ali-esterase,
 B-esterase,
 butyrate esterase,
 butyryl esterase,
carboxylesterase 1
carboxylesterase 2
carboxylesterase 3
 esterase A,
 esterase B,
 esterase D,
 methylbutyrase,
 methylbutyrate esterase,
 monobutyrase,
 procaine esterase,
 propionyl esterase,
 triacetin esterase,
 vitamin A esterase, and
 cocaine esterase

The last enzyme also participates in alkaloid biosynthesis.

Genes 

Humans genes that encode carboxylesterase enzymes include:
 CES1
 CES2
 CES3
 CES4
 CES7
 CES8

An approved nomenclature has been established for the five mammalian carboxylesterase gene families.
