Daniel Woodley Prowse,  (September 12, 1834 – January 27, 1914) was a lawyer, politician, judge, historian, essayist, and office holder.

Born in Port de Grave, Newfoundland (now Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada), he was the fourth of the seven children of Robert Prowse and Jane Woodley. Prowse is the author of A History of Newfoundland which is considered one of the most complete and meticulous colonial history books in existence.

Educated in St. John's and Collegiate School in Liverpool, England, Prowse went to Spain to learn the family business before he returned to Newfoundland where he studied law and articled with Bryan Robinson and eventually was called to the bar in 1858. On March 19, 1860, in a bet, D. W. Prowse won a $6 hat from Mr. Moore by wearing his rifle dress down Water St.

Prowse also was an elected member of the Colony's House of Assembly for Burgeo-La Poile. In 1867 he was a proponent of the pro-confederated movement under Ambrose Shea. In 1869 he was appointed a judge of the Central District Court, an appointment he held until his retirement in 1898. Powers of a judge of the Central District Court were such that he was a Stipendiary Magistrate, a Justice of the Peace and a Circuit Judge. Prowse was also an avid hunter.

He was appointed CMG in the 1912 New Year Honours.

His brother Robert Henry also served in the Newfoundland assembly. The former town of Prowseton is named after him.

Timothy E. Hoeksema (born January 25, 1947) was the chairman of Midwest Air Group who transformed the air fleet of the Kimberly Clark paper mill company into Midwest Airlines.  He retired in July 2009 after the company was sold to Republic Airways Holdings after running into financial trouble.

Hoeksema was a flight instructor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1968.   Hoeksema joined Kimberly-Clark in 1969 serving as first officer of the company's air fleet -- the same year that Kimberly-Clark started its K-C Aviation subsidiary.  He graduated summa cum laude from Western Michigan University in 1972 with a bachelor of science in aviation engineering technology.

In 1974, he became chief pilot for Kimberly-Clark. In 1977 after receiving a  master's degree in business administration while on a Kimberly-Clark scholarship to the University of Chicago Executive Program, he was named director of air transportation for the company and president of K-C Aviation.

In 1984 he was responsible for transforming K-C Aviation into a commercial company Midwest Express which started out with two DC-9 planes.

In 1988 he was named head of Kimberly Clark's transportation sector.

In 1995 the airline's parent Midwest Airgroup was listed on the American Stock Exchange.

In 2007-2008 he fought a takeover attempt by AirTran Airlines in the "Save the Cookie" campaign (a take off on the company's signature service of providing on board baked chocolate chip cookies to its passengers) before ultimately agreeing to a private takeover from a consortium led by TPG Capital with a minority investment by Northwest Airlines.  He remained the chief executive of the airline under its new owners. TPG bought the company for $452 million in 2008 and sold it in July 2009.

He is also a director at the Marcus Corporation and is on the board of trustees of the Medical College of Wisconsin.

Eric Peer Quain (August 22, 1870 – September 11, 1962) was a prominent physician and surgeon in Bismarck, North Dakota, and co-founder of the Quain and Ramstad Clinic (also known as the Q & R Clinic).

Early life 
Eric P. Quain was born as Eric P. Qven on August 22, 1870, in Sweden. At the age of 18, Quain immigrated to the United States, following the sudden death of his father and the remarriage of his mother. He came to Minnesota where he had relatives.

Career 
Quain completed medical school in 1898 and had an internship at the City and County Hospital in Saint Paul, Minnesota. In 1899, after the completion of his internship, Quain moved to Bismarck, North Dakota. Soon after arriving in Bismarck, Quain was met with skepticism from local physicians and medical staff about his views on asepsis, which had not yet gained widespread use in the area. He also ran into issues with Alexander McKenzie, who was known as the "political boss" of North Dakota. In 1902, Dr. Quain, along with Dr. Niles O. Ramstad, formed the Quain and Ramstad Clinic in Bismarck, which is considered the second-oldest medical clinic in the United States.

Throughout his career, Dr. Quain was a constant student. He continually studied medicine and languages. He wrote and presented numerous medical papers. He is credited with being one of the founders of the American College of Surgeons. Also, in 1922, he was elected president of the North Dakota Medical Association.

He was also involved with the Merchants State Bank in Bismarck.

Military 
During World War I, Dr. Quain organized a team of doctors and nurses from North Dakota to go to France. He enlisted in the Officers Reserve Corps in April 1917. He was called into active service on October 31, 1917. He was commissioned a Major and assigned to Medical Corps. He was made head of surgical services in France for the United States Army. Dr. Quain was overseas from August 22, 1918, to February 9, 1919, and he was part of the Meuse-Argonne offensive. Dr. Quain was discharged at Fort Snelling, Minnesota, on August 1, 1919, as a Lieutenant Colonel.

Personal life 
In 1903, Dr. Quain married Fannie Dunn, who was also a physician and a prominent citizen of Bismarck. Dr. Eric P. Quain and Dr. Fannie D. Quain had two children. They later divorced. In 1940, Dr. Quain was remarried to Hilda Gustafson, who served as the supervisor of the operating room at the Bismarck Hospital. Also in 1940, Dr. Quain retired and moved to Oregon. Dr. Quain died on September 11, 1962, at the age of 92. He is buried at Sunset Memorial Gardens in Bismarck, North Dakota.

Sandhani is a voluntary organization run by students of medical colleges in the health sector of Bangladesh that builds and manages blood and organ donation centers. In 2004, the government of Bangladesh awarded Sandhani the Independence Day Award, highest civilian award, for its contribution to social service.

History 
Sandhani is the pioneer of voluntary blood donation movement in Bangladesh. Sandhani began operating from Dhaka Medical College on 5 February 1977, and on 17 October 1979, Mymensingh Medical College emerged as the second unit of Sandhani. The activities of each unit are conducted through an executive committee consisting of the students of that particular unit and as well as a Central Council to coordinate all the units. Sandhani is now active in major cities of Bangladesh. In addition to blood donation, the organization also acts as a bank for human organs.

The collected blood by Sandhani is tested for viral agents before storage. On 2 November 1978, Sandhani organized the first Voluntary Blood Donation Program at DMCH Blood Bank and later this day was declared as National Voluntary Blood Donation and Postmortem Day. The Sandhani Donor Club was established in 1982 and the Sandhani National Eye Donation Society and Sandhani National Eye Bank were established in 1984.

Louis (de) Verjus, count of Crécy (1629, Paris – 13 December 1709) was a French politician and diplomat.

Biography
A Conseiller d’État and brother of the notable Jesuit and procurer for missions to the Levant Antoine Verjus (22 January 1632 – 16 May 1706), he was elected to the Académie française in 1679. He served as Louis XIV's second plenipotentiary to the Congress of Ryswick and before the Eternal Diet of Regensburg in 1695. Thanks to his wide knowledge of the Germanic courts, he was also one of the signatories to the final treaty at Regensburg, dated 30 October 1697. Hyacinthe Rigaud, with help from Adrien Prieur (who was paid 42 livres for his help), produced an image of Verjus in 1700. He was paid 450 livres for it, which suggests quite a large work, for his account books mention this portrait as "Habillement répété" ("Repeated clothing", i.e. copied from a previous model).

According to Saint-Simon, "[Crécy Verjus] was a wise and measured man, who—beneath a disagreeable exterior and manners and knowing the foreigner well, in the new debacle that the French were forced to stay in, and a language the same,—hid an uncommon address and finesse, prompt understanding, by discernment of those with whom he had to treat and of their aim; and who by dint of only hearing what he wanted to hear, by patience and indefatigable effort, and by fertilirt in presenting under all kinds of different appearances the same things that had been rebutted, often arrived at his aim".

On Verjus's death, the duke-writer added: "He was a short little man, soft, polite, respectful, clever, who passed his life on foreign services, and who took all manners, up to the very long language at Regensburg, then in many minor courts of Germany [...] He had much insinuation, the art of re-saying the same thing a hundred times, always in different ways, [and] very often thus succeeded. Nobody knew more on the usages, laws and rights of the Empire and Germany, and [knew] history as well; he was esteemed and well-thought-of abroad, and served there very well. He was very old, and a very short man".

His son, Louis-Alexandre Verjus, marquis de Crécy (1676–1763), was colonel of the Régiment de Boulonnois (1703), brigadier d'armée (1710), gouvernor of Toul, and rose to maréchal-de-camp in 1719.

Eremophila saligna, commonly known as willowy eremophila, is a flowering plant in the figwort family, Scrophulariaceae and is endemic to Western Australia. It is an upright shrub with narrow, serrated leaves, cylindrical flowers and cream to white petals.

Description
Eremophila saligna is an upright shrub which grows to a height of between . The ends of the branches are flattened, sticky and often shiny due to resin and have rows of raised warty lumps. The leaves are arranged alternately along the branches and are narrow elliptic to lance-shaped, shiny, sticky, mostly  long,  wide, glabrous and have a few small serrations.

The flowers are borne in groups of up to 5 in leaf axils on straight, glabrous, sticky stalks,  long. There are 5 green, sticky, narrow triangular, tapering sepals which are  long. The petals are  long and are joined at their lower end to form a cylindrical tube. The petal tube is cream-coloured, sometimes with purple spots inside the tube. The outside surface is glabrous but the inside of the lobes has small, tongue-shaped hairs. The inside of the tube has club-shaped hairs along its lower surface. The 4 stamens are enclosed in the petal tube. Flowering occurs between August and October and is followed by fruits which are dry, thin, brittle, 4-sided and  long.

Taxonomy and naming 
The species was first formally described in 1899 by Spencer Le Marchant Moore who gave it the name Pholidia saligna and published the description in Journal of the Linnean Society, Botany. In 1931, Charles Gardner changed the name to Eremophila saligna and published the new name in Enumeratio Plantarum Australiae Occidentalis. The specific epithet (saligna) is a Latin word meaning "of willow", referring to the willow-like leaves of this species.

Distribution and habitat 
E. saligna grows on and around rocky hills and near salt lakes in areas between near Esperance, Coolgardie and Marvel Loch in the Avon Wheatbelt, Coolgardie, Esperance Plains, Mallee and Nullarbor biogeographic regions.

Conservation
Eremophila saligna is classified as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife.

Use in horticulture
This is one of the hardiest large eremophilas and produces a massed display of pale cream-coloured flowers which have a vanilla-like perfume, although over a short period in early spring. It can be easily propagated from cuttings and grown in a wide range of soil types including alkaline and clay soils. It is both drought and frost tolerant and can survive long dry spells without needing to be watered.

St Martin's Church () is located in Næstved on the Danish island of Sealand. It is one of the city's medieval churches. Known from records since approximately 1280, it is believed to have been built and put into service around 1200. The building was constructed as the city's parish church. It is dedicated to St Martin of Tours considered its patron saint. It is one of the five Church of Denmark churches in Næstved; the other four are the St Peter's Church, St John's Church, Herlufsholm Church and Holsted Church. St Martin's Church and St Peter's Church are located on perpendicular streets, the former situated on Riddergade, while the latter is on Kobmagergade.

History
The church is a Gothic structure built with bricks. The oldest parts of the church are from the 1220s. The tower was added in the 15th century but the baptismal chapel and the porch were completed as late as the 1850s.

Furnishings
The arches bear a portrait of St Martin. There are many frescoes of the period; one depicts him as a soldier sitting on his horse, while he cuts a piece of his officer cap and gives it to a beggar. The church's first organ, installed in 1587, was made by Hans Brebus (d. 1603), a Flemish organ builder who practiced in Denmark and Sweden. The altarpiece (1667) of  height is decorated with figures wearing grotesque masks or with mustaches, some of whom are stooping low) and is attributed to the woodcarver Abel Schrøder (1602-1676) who was also the church's organist for forty-two years. Today's Frobenius organ dates to 1975. The pulpit was built by Abel Schrøder's father.

This is a list of international treaties the United States has either not signed, not ratified, or signed/ratified but later withdrawn its signature/ratification from.

Background 

The Treaty Clause in Article Two of the United States Constitution dictates that the President of the United States negotiates treaties with other countries or political entities, and signs them. Signed treaties enter into force only if ratified by at least two-thirds (67 members) of the United States Senate. (Technically, the Senate itself does not ratify treaties, it only approves or rejects resolutions of ratification submitted by the Committee on Foreign Relations; if approved, the United States exchanges the instruments of ratification with the foreign power(s)). Between 1789 and 1990, the Senate approved more than 1,500 treaties, rejected 21, and 85 treaties were withdrawn because the Senate did not act on them. As of December 2014, 36 treaties signed by the President were awaiting action by the Senate.

Among the treaties unsigned or unratified by the United States, a few have been singled out by organizations such as Human Rights Watch (2009), as extremely important, and the United States’ reluctance to ratify them problematic. Among the treaties are the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW), the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), the International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance (ICPPED), the Ottawa Treaty (Mine Ban Treaty), the Convention on Cluster Munitions (CCM), the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, and the Optional Protocol to the Convention against Torture (OPCAT). The United States is also one of the few countries not to have ratified the Kyoto Protocol.  According to a 2014 analysis by The New Republic, the ratification of a significant number of treaties signed after 1990 has been blocked by senators of the Republican Party for various ideological reasons.
