Anne Lyon Haight (May 11, 1891 – August 8, 1977) was an American author, essayist, and collector of rare books and artifacts.

She was born Anne Pardee Lyon in St. Paul, Minnesota, on May 11, 1891, and was educated at the Masters School in Dobbs Ferry, New York.

Haight is best remembered as an author and collector, and for her active memberships in many clubs and societies. She was a founding member of the Hroswitha Club, and served at least one term as its president. She published a short biography of Hroswitha of Gandersheim under the club's auspices. Her personal collection included an early edition of Clement Clarke Moore's "A visit from St. Nicholas." Haight was credited with starting the Children's Book of the Month Club. Her other club memberships included the National Society of the Colonial Dames of America, the Women's Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Association, the Society of Woman Geographers, and the Women Fly Fishers Club.

In addition to studying book history and collecting rare volumes, she was also an aviation enthusiast, and studied Native American cultures. During World War I, she worked in the American Women's War Relief Hospital in Devonshire, England, and later worked with the Red Cross in Washington, DC. She flew with Charles Lindbergh on several of his notable flights: she was a passenger on the first trans-Atlantic flight on a Pan-American Clipper in June 1939, and also on the first Clipper flight to South America. She wrote about her experiences for several national magazines.

She participated in several American Museum of Natural History-organized research expeditions to the Isthmus of Panama to study Native American civilizations. She and her husband collected Native American artifacts, many of which were donated to the Hood Museum of Art. At one point, she travelled to Saudi Arabia (likely with her husband, who was an executive of the World Wildlife Fund), where she was a guest of King Saud, to advocate for the preservation of the Arabian oryx.

She was married to Sherman Post Haight, Sr. (1889-1980), with whom she had two sons and a daughter. She died at her home in Litchfield, Connecticut, on August 8, 1977.

A heuristic argument is an argument that reasons from the value of a method or principle that has been shown experimentally (especially through trial-and-error) to be useful or convincing in learning, discovery and problem-solving, but whose line of reasoning involves key oversimplifications that make it not entirely rigorous. A widely used and important example of a heuristic argument is Occam's Razor.

It is a speculative, non-rigorous argument that relies on analogy or intuition, and that allows one to achieve a result or an approximation that is to be checked later with more rigor. Otherwise, the results are generally to be doubted. It is used as a hypothesis or a conjecture in an investigation, though it can also be used as a mnemonic as well.

Plot
Two bachelors who are no longer young rent a garçonnière. Their enthusiasm lasts very little, however, as all their attempts to use it to bring dates there appear to be useless.

Cast
 Sylva Koscina as Eby
 Mario Carotenuto as Mario
 Memmo Carotenuto as Memmo
 Gina Rovere as Franca
 Andrea Checchi as Eng. Rocchetti
 Marisa Merlini as Evelina
 Nanda Primavera as Evelina's mother
 Mario Passante as the friar

 Graziella Granata as Gianna

Censorship 
When I piaceri dello scapolo was first released in Italy in 1960 the Committee for the Theatrical Review of the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities rated it as VM16: not suitable for children under 16. In addition the committee imposed the following revisions: 1) the sequences in which the prostitute Franca appears half-dressed will be shortened as much as possible without disrupting the plot; 2) the scenes in which she takes on alluring poses and behaviors typical of her trade will be definitely deleted; 3) the scenes in which the priest is begging and in which the priest is speaking to Memmo (the latter to be shortened as much as possible) will be deleted. The first two scenes mentioned are considered immoral and offensive to decency, the other ones are considered offensive to religion. The official document number is: 30635, it was signed on 22 February 1960 by Minister Domenico Magrì.

Founded in 1970, the American Society of Forensic Odontology (ASFO) promotes interest and research in the field of forensic odontology (forensic dentistry). Prior to the formation of the ASFO, involvement in forensic odontology was limited to those dentists who were affiliated with the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology (AFIP) or other law enforcement and scientific organizations such as the American Academy of Forensic Sciences. Credited as one of the founders of the ASFO, Colonel Robert Boyers of the AFIP recognized the need to provide such inclusive opportunity for education and advancement in the field for all interested individuals.

As membership in the ASFO began to grow in the 1970s, the decision was made to meet annually in conjunction with the American Academy of Forensic Sciences. Sponsorship of the scientific session at the annual meeting provided the opportunity for newer, less experienced members to meet and interact with more experienced peers. Additionally, the joint meeting provided individuals from a variety of forensic disciplines a chance to become familiar with forensic odontology and the ASFO organization. Membership has continued to grow and now includes over 480 active members making it one of the largest worldwide organizations dedicated to this forensic discipline. Membership in the ASFO remains open to any individual interested in developing their knowledge of forensic odontology.

Publications
In 1980, Drs. Robert Siegel and Norman Sperber compiled the ASFO Forensic Odontology Workbook. Over the years, many Society members contributed to this effort which led to the publishing of the "Manual of Forensic Odontology".  Currently in the fifth edition, this manual provides a general reference for forensic dentists and others studying the science. This reference manual covers a wide variety of subjects encompassed in forensic odontology some of which include: human identification, bite mark analysis, abuse and neglect as well as current technology and advancements in the field matter.

Education and research
In addition to the annual scientific session, the ASFO provides various opportunities for continuing education through course listings and online case presentations. To encourage further investiagion in the field, research grants are available through the ASFO Research Committee through an application process available online. Links to other significant forensic organizations are also provided on the ASFO web site.

Objective
The objective of this Society shall be to advance the cause of forensic dentistry and to develop and maintain the highest standards of practice. This shall be done via study, discussion, seminars, publications and liaison with other organized agencies.

Cornelia MacIntyre Foley  was an American painter from Hawaii.

Biography

Cornelia MacIntyre was born in Honolulu, Territory of Hawaii on January 31, 1909.  She began her art training under the first art instructor the University of Hawaii, Huc-Mazelet Luquiens (1881–1961). Foley continued her art education at the University of Washington, and spent two years in London at the Slade School of Art as a pupil of Henry Tonks (1862–1937). From London, she returned to Hawaii, where she studied with Madge Tennent from 1934 to 1937 and subsequently married Lieutenant Paul Foley (who became a Rear Admiral in the United States Navy).  During 1937–1941, the couple lived in Long Beach, CA and in Seattle, Washington in 1941–1942. Cornelia Foley died January 18, 2010, in Severna Park, Maryland.

Foley is best known for her voluptuous paintings of Hawaiian women, such as Hawaiian Woman in White Holoku from 1937. Major paintings by Foley are held by the Honolulu Museum of Art and the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri.  A cast concrete outdoor fountain, known as the Varhey Circle Fountain, which she created with Henry H. Rempel, is on the campus of the University of Hawaii at Manoa.

USS Alexandria was a side-wheel steamer captured by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. She was used by the Union Navy as a dispatch boat in support of the Union Navy blockade of Confederate waterways.

Steamer captured and by Union Navy forces 

St. Mary—a small, wooden-hulled, side-wheel steamer built at Plaquemine, Louisiana—was presented to the Confederate government upon completion early in 1862. Protected by bales of cotton, the vessel operated on the Yazoo and Tallahatchie Rivers for the remainder of that year and into the summer of 1863. On 13 July, a Union joint Army-Navy expedition of four warships and 5,000 troops captured St. Mary at Yazoo City, Mississippi.

Steamer placed into Union Navy service 

Although apparently never condemned by a prize court because she was appraised at less than $8,000, St. Mary was taken into the Union Navy. On 18 September 1863, Rear Admiral David Dixon Porter wrote to the Secretary of the Navy, Gideon Welles, requesting permission to retain the prize for naval service and asking that the ship be renamed Yazoo. However, this suggestion was never approved.

Service with the Mississippi squadron 

Although surviving records are not conclusive, it seems that after the prize had been repaired, Admiral Porter may have used the steamer in the autumn as a non-commissioned dispatch boat. However, the side-wheeler was placed in commission as Alexandria at Cairo, Illinois, on 12 December 1863.

She served in the 1st District of the Mississippi Squadron and operated between Donaldsonville, Louisiana, and Cairo, Illinois.

Post-war decommissioning, sale, and subsequent career 
After the collapse of the Confederacy, the ship was decommissioned at Cairo, Illinois, on 7 August 1865 and sold at auction at Mound City, Illinois, on 17 August 1865 to W. Markham of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Documented as Alexandria on 4 October 1865, the ship served on the Mississippi River and her tributaries until lost sometime in 1867. No documents containing specific information on her destruction seem to have survived.

The Dorfman–Steiner theorem (or Dorfman–Steiner condition) is a neoclassical economics theorem which looks for the optimal level of advertising that a firm should undertake.  The theorem is named after Robert Dorfman and Peter O. Steiner who developed the approach in their widely cited 1954 article in the American Economic Review. Firms can increase their sales by either decreasing the price of the good, or persuading consumers to buy more by increasing advertising expenditure. The optimal level of advertising for a firm is found where the ratio of advertising to sales equals the price-cost margin times the advertising elasticity of demand. The obvious result is that the greater the degree of sensitivity of quantity demanded to advertising and the greater the margin on the extra output then the higher the level of advertising. 

A simple textbook presentation of the mathematical statement of the approach is as follows:

Where
 is the price per unit of advertising
 is the amount of advertising
 is the price of the good
 is the output of the good
 is the average or marginal, depending on the assumptions, cost of production
 is the advertising elasticity of demand.
