Tanya Falan Welk (born May 4, 1948) is an American singer who appeared on The Lawrence Welk Show from 1968 to 1977.

Born and raised in Glendale, California, Tanya began singing at age four at her uncle's Los Angeles restaurant. As a teenager, she worked at Disneyland where she had her own band known as Tanya and the Thunderbirds. While in high school, she developed her skills with other instruments such as the drums, cello, bass and xylophone in addition to singing.

Tanya made her Welk show debut on New Year's Eve 1967, and shortly afterwards was made a regular member of the cast. A few months later in the summer of 1968, she also became a member of Lawrence Welk's own family when she married his son Larry, Jr. The couple had two sons, Lawrence Welk, III (born 1970) and Kevin (born 1971).

During her tenure on the show, she sang solo numbers and in many group numbers, pairing with Anacani as a duo and often as a trio with fellow Italian-American music makers Bob Lido and Charlie Parlato.

Tanya also branched out in other areas of television, making guest appearances on Jerry Lewis' Labor Day Telethon and in 1971, guest starred on the soap opera General Hospital.

In 1969, she recorded the album Let It Be Me which was released by Ranwood Records.

She left the show in 1977, and two years later (1979) her marriage to Larry Welk ended.  In 1980 she married former world champion motorcycle racer and racing team owner, Kenny Roberts.

In the context of artificial neural network, pruning is the practice of removing parameters (which may entail removing individual parameters, or parameters in groups such as by neurons) from an existing network. The goal of this process is to maintain accuracy of the network while increasing its efficiency. This can be done to reduce the computational resources required to run the neural network. A process of pruning takes place in the brain of mammals during development.

Node (neuron) pruning 
A basic algorithm for pruning is as follows:
Evaluate the importance of each neuron.
Rank the neurons according to their importance (assuming there is a clearly defined measure for "importance").
Remove the least important neuron.
Check a termination condition (to be determined by the user) to see whether to continue pruning.
Recently a highly pruned three layer tree architecture, has achieved a similar success rate to that of LeNet-5 on the CIFAR-10 dataset with a lesser computational complexity.

Edge (weight) pruning 
Most work on neural network pruning focuses on removing weights, namely, setting their values to zero. 
Early work suggested to also change the values of non-pruned weights.

Stephen Victor Graham  (March 4, 1874 – September 2, 1955) was a United States Naval Rear Admiral and the governor of American Samoa from September 9, 1927, to August 2, 1929. Graham attended the United States Naval Academy and served on numerous ships before being posted to the governorship. As governor, he established a strong charter for the former Bank of American Samoa and reworked Samoan fiscal law. After his governorship, he worked at the Naval Academy as the head of the Modern Languages department.

Life

Early life
Graham was born on March 4, 1874, in Cass County, Michigan.

Naval career
Graham was appointed to the United States Naval Academy  from Michigan on May 19, 1890. He graduated July 1, 1896, and received the rank of lieutenant (junior grade) on July 1, 1899. He served on , , USS Saratoga, and . Later in his career, as a lieutenant commander, Graham headed the Department of Modern Languages at the United States Naval Academy. After retiring, Graham was awarded the rank of rear admiral on March 3, 1931.

Governorship
On September 9, 1927, Graham became Governor of American Samoa. While in office, Graham rechartered the Bank of American Samoa and amended current fiscal laws for the island. He ceded the post to Gatewood Sanders Lincoln on August 2, 1929. Shortly after Captain Graham became governor, he received a letter from the Mau saying they would not pay any more taxes until a decision had been made regarding the “desire of the Samoa League for civil government.” Graham was invited to the Mau headquarters in Nu'uuli, where he told them not paying taxes would be an act of defiance. The Mau said they were not hostile to the Navy administration, but believed the time had come for a change. After governor Graham explained the “Samoa for Samoans” policy of the Navy, Mau members were so impressed and discontinued their taxation efforts.

The sickle barb (Enteromius haasianus) is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Enteromius. it gets its common name from the sickle shaped anal fin of mature males, they are normally a translucent brown colour with a spot on the caudal peduncle but in breeding condition the males take on a rosy hue. It is a common and widespread species of swamps and shallow waters, including floodplains, in central Africa from the Congo Basin to the Zambezi. It is harvested commercially for food and for the aquarium trade and in some areas, such as Katanga, pollution may be a threat but it is a common and widespread small fish and is not considered to be globally threatened.

Size
This species reaches a length of .

Etymology
The fish is named in honor malacologist Fritz Haas (1886-1969), who collected the type specimen.

Faure Island is a 58 km2 island pastoral lease and nature reserve, east of the Francois Peron National Park on the Peron Peninsula, in Shark Bay, Western Australia. It lies in line with the Monkey Mia resort to the west, and the Wooramel River on the eastern shore of Shark Bay.  It is surrounded by the Shark Bay Marine Park and Shark Bay World Heritage Site and, as the Faure Island Sanctuary, is owned and managed by the Australian Wildlife Conservancy (AWC).

History 
The island was given its European name by French explorer Nicolas Baudin in 1801, in honour of the geographer, Pierre Faure, aboard his ship Le Naturaliste.

Pastoral leases over the island were granted to Charles Broadhurst in 1873, and to WD Moore & Coy in 1883.  For most of the 20th century, from 1905, the Hoult family of Denham ran sheep and goats on the island.  In 1999 the Hoults sold the lease to the AWC, which removed more than 3400 sheep.

Landscape and climate
The landscape consists mostly of red and white sandy plains and dunes, with claypans in low-lying areas.  The highest point is 26m above sea level.  It has some limestone and red sand cliff shores, like Peron Peninsula.

The vegetation is predominantly low shrubs of Acacia ramulosa.  There are also mallee shrublands, spinifex grasslands, samphire/Atriplex shrublands, and coastal mangroves.

The climate is semi-arid to arid, with hot dry summers and mild winters. Rainfall is erratic, falling mainly in winter, with an annual average of 222 mm.  Cyclones may sometimes bring rainfall in summer and autumn.

Wildlife

Birds
Faure Island is an important breeding area for many seabirds, as well as being important for migratory waders using the East Asian - Australasian Flyway.  With the neighbouring much smaller (5 ha) Pelican Island and their associated mudflats, it has been identified as a 5821 ha Important Bird Area (IBA).   The Faure and Pelican Islands (Shark Bay) IBA supports breeding colonies of fairy terns and over 1% of the world populations of red-necked stint and pied oystercatcher. Together with the nearby Quoin Bluff and Freycinet Island IBA, it supports more than 1% of the world population of pied cormorants.

Mammals
The original native mammal fauna of Faure Island did not survive the introduction of livestock and the presence of feral cats.  However, sub-fossil evidence of the former presence of native mammals has brought reintroduction of the boodie, Shark Bay mouse, banded hare-wallaby and western barred bandicoot. An attempt to reintroduce the greater stick-nest rat failed.

Marine surrounds
The island is located within the Shark Bay Marine Park and is adjacent to both the Wooramel Seagrass Bank and the Faure Sill sandbank that is a major component in the creating of the conditions within the Hamelin Pool Marine Nature Reserve.

Trithiazyl trichloride is the inorganic compound with the formula . A white solid, it is a precursor to other sulfur nitrides, but has no commercial applications.

Structure
The molecule is a 6-membered ring of alternating nitrogen and sulfur atoms, where each sulfur atom is attached to one chlorine atom by a single bond. The molecule contains alternating single and double bonds in the  core. The molecule has C3v symmetry. The  core is slightly ruffled structure with S-N distances of 160.5 pm. The S-Cl distances are 208 pm, and the chlorine atoms are mutually cis. The S centers are tetravalent and pyramidal. In contrast to the NSCl connectivity, nitrosyl chloride has the connectivity ONCl.

Synthesis and reactions
Trithiazyl trichloride is obtained by chlorination of tetrasulfur tetranitride:

At 100 °C in vacuum, thiazyl chloride trimer undergoes cracking to thiazyl chloride monomer, which is a green gas.

In N≡S−Cl, chlorine is bonded to sulfur, in contrast to nitrosyl chloride O=N–Cl, where chlorine is bonded to nitrogen. In contrast, with six fewer electrons, cyanuric chloride is a planar ring.

It reacts with nitriles to dithiadiazolium chlorides:

The compound oxidizes to the S(VI) compound , which exists as isomers.

The Ārai Terraces are a series of crevassed terraces and icefalls close southward of Fazekas Hills, near the head of Lowery Glacier. They were so named by the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (1959–60) because they are a natural barrier to sledge travel which the party was unable to traverse, ārai being the Māori term for barrier.

Matt Butler is an American singer and songwriter from New York. His EP and one-man show Reckless Son are based partly on his own life, and partly on the experiences incarcerated people shared with him while playing concerts at prisons and jails.

Biography
Butler released a number of songs starting in 2015. He played his first show for an incarcerated audience at the Albany County Correctional facility. Besides performing for inmates, he also turns their stories into song, for the 2022 project Reckless Son, a one-man show. Those shows are unpaid, but are often played in towns where he also does paid shows, and then plays at prisons in the daytime. Butler described the project as a "a coming of age story, a hero’s journey", based on a time in his life, in his twenties, when, as he said, "I felt like I had failed everything I’d ever attempted, including making my way as a musician". It contains "monologues and music inspired by his real-life experiences performing in prisons across the country". An accompanying EP, also called Reckless Son, was released on January 27, 2023, after two songs from the EP, "Time To Be A Man" and Good Friday", were released in 2022. The EP received a positive review from Andrew Gulden at Americana Highways, who said the songs were "cautionary tales, yes, but also an exercise in empathy toward the folks who find themselves on the wrong side of the iron bars." Melissa Clarke, also in Americana Highways, praised his "gritty, powerful voice".

Butler recorded a video for his song "Just One" with Greg Williams and Jeff Reilly, both filmmakers, for their documentary Generation Found, about a community in Houston, Texas, that attempts to counter addiction among young people. The video premiered on December 7, 2016, and contains footage from the documentary; Generation Found premiered on December 14 at the theatre of New York's School of Visual Arts.

Henry Dowling (1810 – 17 September 1885) was a newspaper editor and politician in colonial Tasmania. He was the older brother of artist Robert Hawker Dowling.

Dowling was born in Gloucester, Gloucestershire, England, son of Rev. Henry Dowling Snr (1780–1869), a Baptist minister and Elizabeth Darke (1782–1853).
Dowling junior was educated at the Free Grammar School, Colchester, and was afterwards apprenticed to the printing business. In 1830 he emigrated to Van Diemen's Land (later renamed to Tasmania), and was for some time on the staff of the Hobart Town Courier, but in the following year he purchased from John Pascoe Fawkner the Launceston Independent, and changing its name to the Launceston Advertiser, conducted it for some years with much success. In 1839 Dowling proceeded to England, having received the appointment of Immigration Agent for Tasmania, in which capacity he was the means of introducing into the colony many settlers whose names were well known in Northern Tasmania. In 1842 he returned to Launceston, Tasmania, and was for some years engaged in the printing and drapery business. He was one of the founders of the Launceston Savings Bank, and in 1844 was appointed manager of that institution. Dowling was always active in public affairs, and was specially prominent in the anti-transportation movement, and in the agitation for railways.

Dowling was Mayor of Launceston from 1857 to 1861, and in the latter year was elected to the Tasmanian House of Assembly as member for Launceston, but only held the seat for two years. In 1868 he accepted the secretaryship of the Launceston and Western Railway Company, and held that position until the year 1872, when this, the first of Tasmanian railways, was taken over by the Government. Amongst the works issued from Dowling's press may be mentioned an illustrated edition of the Pickwick Papers and West's History of Tasmania. Dowling died from heart failure on 17 September 1885 in Launceston, Tasmania.
