David Abner Sr. (1826–1902) was an American politician who served in the Texas House of Representatives.

Born into slavery in Selma, Alabama, he served in the Fourteenth Texas Legislature for District 5 and sat on the Education Committee. He was a delegate to the 1875 Texas Constitutional Convention.

Early life
At the age of seventeen, Abner in 1843 was taken to Upshur County in East Texas. After being emancipated after the American Civil War, he moved to Marshall in Harrison County, also in East Texas. There he rented a plot of land and a mule from the sister of his original master. A few years later, he purchased the farm and became wealthy.

Political life
In 1873, Abner was appointed to the executive committee of the first Colored Men's State Convention. Later, he was elected to the position of treasurer for Harrison County. In 1874, Abner was elected to the legislature for Harrison and Rusk counties.

Halfway through his term in the state House, in August 1875, a convention was called to rewrite the 1869 Texas State Constitution. Abner was one of three delegates elected to the convention from the Texas State Senate district that made up Harison and Rusk counties. He was the only Republican at the convention who voted for a clause in the state constitution that prohibited the state from spending money for the encouragement of immigration.

After his state legislative term, Abner was the vice president of the Republican State Convention in 1876.

After politics

In 1881, Abner helped establish Bishop College, and served as one of its first trustees. In 1884, his son David Abner, Jr., became the first black man to graduate from a Texas college, and later became president of Guadalupe College and then of Conroe College.

Abner died in 1902 in Marshall, Texas, and is interred there at a family cemetery.

Notes
 Article 16, section 56 of the Texas State Constitution states: "The Legislature shall have no power to appropriate any of the public money for the establishment and maintenance of a bureau of immigration, or for any purpose of bringing immigrants to this State." It was part of the Constitution from 1875 until it was repealed in 2001.

mir-395 is a non-coding RNA called a microRNA that was identified in both Arabidopsis thaliana and Oryza sativa computationally and was later experimentally verified. mir-395 is thought to target mRNAs coding for ATP sulphurylases. The mature sequence is excised from the 3' arm of the hairpin.

miR-395 is upregulated in Arabidopsis during sulphate-limited conditions, when the mature miRNA then regulates sulphur transporters and ATP sulphurylases.

Cantigny Golf Club is a public golf course located in Wheaton, Illinois. It is a 27-hole course owned by the Robert R. McCormick Foundation and managed by Kemper Sports.

History 
Cantigny Golf is built on the former estate of Colonel Robert R. McCormick, who was the editor and publisher of the Chicago Tribune. Robert R. McCormick inherited the land, which was known then as Red Oaks Farm, from his mother. The renaming of the land to Cantigny came upon Colonel McCormick's return from duty in World War I, where he led the First Infantry Division into the first American Victory in World War I at the Battle at Cantigny, a small French village roughly 60 miles north of Paris.

Upon Robert R. McCormicks passing, and due to his lack of kin, his will instructed that his entire estate to be used for philanthropic purposes, and the land to be used as a place of recreation for the public.

To encourage the public's use of the land, the McCormick Foundation developed plans for a public golf course. The construction of Cantigny Golf began in 1986, by the Wadsworth Construction Company, and was completed in 1988, and opened to the public in 1989. The course, designed by Roger Packard, is composed of three 9-hole courses: Lakeside, Woodside, and Hillside. Jacobson Golf Course Design updated the course in 2003.

Tournaments 
Important Tournaments hosted by Cantigny Golf:

 1998 - Illinois PGA Club Professional Championship
 2002 - Illinois State Amateur Championship
 2007 - U.S. Amateur Public Links Championship
 2013 & 2014 - Chicago Open

Poppaea Sabina the Elder (c. 10 – c. 47 AD) was an aristocratic woman who lived during the Principate. During her lifetime she was famed for her beauty, but as Ronald Syme writes, her "fame and follies have been all but extinguished by her homonymous daughter", Poppaea Sabina the Younger. She met her end as a victim of the empress Valeria Messalina, wife of Claudius.

Poppaea Sabina was the daughter of Gaius Poppaeus Sabinus, homo novus and consul of AD 9. She had been the wife of Titus Ollius, who was a friend of the prefect of the Praetorian Guard Sejanus. He committed suicide following Sejanus' downfall. With Ollius she had a daughter who would be the future empress to Nero. After Ollius' death she married Publius Cornelius Lentulus Scipio, consul in AD 24. Scipio had a son by a previous marriage Publius Cornelius Lentulus Scipio the Younger (consul in AD 56). With Poppaea Sabina the Elder they had a son, Publius Cornelius Scipio Asiaticus, suffect consul in 68.

Her downfall came during the reign of the emperor Claudius. His wife, Messalina, desired to possess the Gardens of Lucullus which was owned by Decimus Valerius Asiaticus, consul in the years 35 and again in 46. Based on the gossip that Poppaea Sabina and Asiaticus had been lovers, Messalina directed her servant Suilius to accuse Asiaticus of treason, and accuse the pair of adultery. Asiaticus was tried in the emperor's private chambers, but instead of a guilty plea was allowed to commit suicide. Meanwhile, Messalina had agents harass Poppaea Sabina with threats of prison which led to her own suicide.
