Patricia M. Shields (born 1951) is a Regents' Professor in the Political Science Department at Texas State University. Since 2001 she has been Editor-in-Chief of the international and interdisciplinary journal Armed Forces & Society. She is also a Contributing Editor to Parameters: The US Army War College Quarterly and the Section Editor of the Military and Society section to the Handbook of Military Sciences. Shields is notable for her publications focusing on research methods, civil military relations, gender issues, pragmatism in public administration, peace studies, and the contributions of Jane Addams to public administration and peace theory. She received a BA in Economics from the University of Maryland - College Park, an MA in Economics and a PhD in Public Administration from The Ohio State University.

Scholarship 
As a scholar, Shields promoted the classical pragmatism of C. S. Peirce, William James, and John Dewey as an "organizing principle" for the discipline of public administration. Her publication, "The Community of inquiry: Classical Pragmatism and Public Administration" (2003), began an ongoing, interdisciplinary, academic debate in the journal Administration & Society. She applies the feminist pragmatism of Jane Addams to Public Administration.

Shields is also notable in the public administration community for utilizing pragmatism to advance research methodology in the field. For example, Shields is responsible in part for popularizing Dewey's notion of the working hypothesis as a method of preliminary, qualitative, exploratory research, in addition to the concept of the practical ideal type for program evaluation.<ref>Shields, Patricia and Hassan Tajalli. 2006.

Reviews
Emine Yıldrım, writing in Today's Zaman, describes the film as, "a borderline emotion exploiter that performs quite pleasantly despite some of its excesses until that point at the very end in which the filmmakers transform their cute story into a slice of unnecessary arabesque." "The film", he continues, "has a lot of funny and sweet moments thanks to the enthusiasm of the actors who are playing the blind team members, and director Ertürk should be congratulated for portraying them with respect instead of pity", and, "I was smiling with amusement as I was watching this quasi-sports comedy until I was subjected to the bombardment of sentiment in the movie's final 10 minutes, thus I regret to say that I couldn't help ending up cowered with a sour expression on my face. They had taken away my feel-good moment, and I don't even know for what purpose." He concludes that the film, "has the potential to reach the hearts of enough audience members; it tries to illustrate a positive message - anyone can do anything. It's just that no one wants to watch an alcoholic overcome with self-pity if they're in the mood for regaining hope."

Helibor (Helsinki Interbank Offered Rate) was a reference rate that was used in 1987–1998 on the Finnish interbank market. It was calculated each day as an average of the interest rates at which the banks offered to lend unsecured, Finnish markka nominated funds to each other.

Helibor was quoted for 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 and 12 month maturities. It was widely used as a reference rate for company loans and housing loans. Before deregulation and floating the currency, it was rather high compared to the rest of the Western world, meaning that for instance mortgage interest rates were regularly ca. 15%. This so-called Suomi-lisä was removed by deregulation.

The Bank of Finland began publishing Helibor rates officially in May 1987. Helibor was quoted for the last time on December 31, 1998, after which it was replaced with the Euribor.

Fluctuations in the Helibor played a prominent role in the Finnish banking crisis in the late 1980s and early 1990s.

Katrien M. Devos is an American plant geneticist who is distinguished research professor at the University of Georgia. Her research considers the structure, function and evolution of the genomes of grasses. In particular, Devos considers halophytic turfgrasses, cereals and bioenergy crops. She was elected Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2016.

Early life and education 
Devos became interested in plant genetics during her undergraduate studies. She was a doctoral researcher at Ghent University, where she studied wheat and Triticeae genetic mapping. She moved to the United Kingdom as a postdoctoral researcher, where she used comparative genetics to better understand cereals. In the United Kingdom, she worked in John Innes Centre were she created the concept of crop circles, which considers the relationship between grass genomes.

Research and career 
In 1996 Devos was awarded a Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council David Phillips Fellowship to start her independent scientific career, where she started working on genome evolution. Devos worked with the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics to create a millet cultivar for food crops in the developing world. These millet crops were bred to have improved resistance to downy mildew.

Devos moved to the University of Georgia in 2003, where has focused on understanding the genetics of grasses. These investigations have included target crops such as wheat, panicum virgatum foxtail millet, eleusine coracana. By sequencing the genome of pearl millet, Devos was able to identify a dwarfing gene, the first gene that causes an agronomic trait that was ever isolated.

Syncopacma taeniolella is a moth of the family Gelechiidae. It is found in most of Europe.

The wingspan is 10–13 mm. The forewings are bronzy-black, somewhat lighter basally; a nearly straight narrow white fascia beyond middle. Hindwings are fuscous, darker posteriorly. Under-surface with white fascia distinct across forewings and forming a costal spot on hindwings. The larva is pale ochreous-yellowish; 3-12 with broad dull red transverse bands, on 3 and 4 somewhat interrupted; head yellow-brown; plate of 2 yellow-brown, posteriorly blackish-marked 
 
Adults are on wing in July.

The larvae feed on Lotus corniculatus, Lotus uliginosus, Medicago and Trifolium species. They initially mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine consists of an irregular blotchy rather small mine. Soon the larvae leave the mine, and start mining from between few spun leaves. Larvae can be found in May and June.

Fungi of the order Chytridiales, like other members of its division, may either have a monocentric thallus or a polycentric rhizomycelium. When the ribosomal genes of members classified in this order were first examined using molecular techniques, it was discovered that the order contained some species that were not related. With the culture and characterization of  Chytridium olla, the type species of this order, the limits of the Chytridiales were established. The Chytridiales is now monophyletic and species such as Polychytrium aggregatum, Chytriomyces angularis and Cladochytrium replicatum  have been transferred to other orders.

The Nahukuá are members of a small, indigenous ethnic group in the upper Xingu River area of Brazil.  Their population was 146, as of 2010, making them the smallest group in the region.

History

When the Nahukuá people were first encountered by German explorers in the late 19th century, they were initially grouped with two other tribes living in the region (the Kalapalo and Kuikuro, rather than recognized as their own unique group.  Another group of later explorers only mentioned the Nahukuá in passing, speculating about the origins of the Nahukuá people.  These explorers, led by a man named Max Schmidt, believed that, because of the Cariban ancestry of the Nahukuá, they were probably immigrants to the region, hailing originally from southwestern Guiana.

Early explorers noted that the Nahukuá had several villages along the Kurisevo and Kuluene rivers.  By the 1940s, however, the population of the Nahukuá people had been reduced to only 28.  Although the population did rise slightly in the ensuing years, a measles epidemic decimated populations again in the 1950s.  By 1954, some believed that the Nahukuá may already have been extinct.  At some point after 1948, low Nahukuá populations caused the ethnic group to disband its last existing village at the time.  In the 1960s, at the encouragement of the Villas-Bôas brothers, the Nahukuá created a new village to a spot closer to the Kalapalo people.  This village was eventually abandoned, due to superstition regarding a murder, which the Nahukuá attributed to sorcery.

In 1977, a new Nahukuá village was set up on the shore of Kuluene river.  Nahukuá populations, which had been increasing since the introduction of proper modern healthcare to the upper Xingu River area in the 1960s, continued to increase after the foundation of this new village.

Lucy Dorsey Iams (November 13, 1855–October 26, 1924) was an American welfare worker and reform legislation leader based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She played a critical role in the drafting of a 1903 Pennsylvania tenement law.

Biography
Lucy Virginia Dorsey was born at Oakland, Maryland on November 13, 1855. Her father was a Methodist minister and died in the late 1850s. After her mother died a few years later, she was raised by her grandparents. She graduated from Waynesburg College in 1873 and spent several years teaching in public schools. 

She married Franklin Pierce Iams in 1877, a lawyer involved in the political affairs of the Democratic Party. She served as his secretary and became a successful court stenographer.

Iams was active with the Civic Club of Allegheny County and became its first vice president in 1902. She played a critical role in the drafting of a 1903 Pennsylvania tenement law and chaired the Club's Legislative Committee until the 1920s.  

She also served on the legislative committees of the Associated Charities of Pittsburgh, the Consumers' League of Western Pennsylvania and the Allegheny County Child Labor Associations. According to historian Roy Lubove, "in a sense she acted as an informal coordinator of reform legislation for western Pennsylvania."

Iams made an unsuccessful run for Pittsburgh City Council in 1921. The same year she was appointed as a Trustee of the Western Penitentiary of Pennsylvania by Governor Gifford Pinchot.

Illness, death and interment
Iams died from pneumonia on October 26, 1924 in Pittsburgh and was interred at the Allegheny Cemetery.
