Des Alwi Abubakar (November 17, 1927 – November 12, 2010) was an Indonesian historian, diplomat, writer and advocate of the Banda Islands. He was the adopted son of Mohammad Hatta, the first Vice President of Indonesia, whom he called "Oom Kacamata" ("Uncle Eyeglasses").

Early life 
Alwi was born on November 17, 1927, on Banda Neira, the most populous of the Banda Islands in the Moluccas. He first met Mohammad Hatta, as well as Indonesian intellectual Sutan Sjahrir, while Hatta was in internal exile on Banda Neira.  Hatta adopted Alwi as his son.

As a teenager he participated in the battle for Surabaya, East Java in 1945.

Career 

Alwi's early career included working at the Voice of Indonesia radio station in Yogyakarta. He later studied at King's College in the UK where he met with future Malaysian political leaders, including Tun Abdul Razak.

As a diplomat, Alwi served tenures in several embassies, including in Bern, Vienna and Manila. He became disillusioned with Sukarno’s dictatorial tendencies. He controversially settled in Kuala Lumpur at the height of Indonesia’s “Konfrontasi” with Malaysia where he engaged, using a pseudonym, in a broadcast to lambaste Sukarno. Alwi played a role in easing political tensions between Indonesia and Malaysia in the 1960s by approaching then Malaysian prime minister Tun Abdul Razak.

In the 1970s, Alwi developed an interest in documentary films when he made a film about Hatta and later made other documentaries. He directed Tanah Gersang (Barren Land) in 1972, Cucu (Grandchild) and a comedy about espionage in 1973.

Later life 
Alwi married Anna Marie Mambu, and had four children; Karma Alwi, Mira Alwi and Tanya Alwi and Ramon Alwi.

In the latter stages of his life, he focused much attention and personal investment on his beloved Banda. Des managed a hotel and resort in Banda Naira, with a guest list featuring Princess Diana, rock star Mick Jagger and Sarah Ferguson. He co-authored a book "Turbulent Times Past in Ternate and Tidore" together with Willard A Hanna on the history of Maluku and Banda Naira.

Des Alwi died in at his home in Permata Hijau, Jakarta on November 12, 2010, at the age of 82.

Roots (1958) is the second play by Arnold Wesker in The Wesker Trilogy. The first part is Chicken Soup with Barley and the final play is I'm Talking about Jerusalem. Roots focuses on Beatie Bryant as she makes the transition from being an uneducated working-class woman obsessed with Ronnie, her unseen liberal boyfriend, to a woman who can express herself and the struggles of her time. It is written in the Norfolk dialect of the people on which it focuses, and is considered to be one of Wesker's kitchen sink dramas. Roots was first presented at the Belgrade Theatre, Coventry, in May 1959 with Joan Plowright in the lead before transferring to the Royal Court Theatre, London.

Plot

Act 1
Beatie arrives back in her native Norfolk to stay with her sister.

Act 2
Beatie visits her parents.

Act 3
Beatie and her family await Ronnie's arrival, until a letter arrives from him announcing he is leaving Beatie.

Excerpt
"Do you think we really count? You don' wanna take any notice of what them ole papers say about the workers bein' all-important these days – that's all squit! 'Cos we aren't. Do you think when the really talented people in the country get to work they get to work for us? Hell if they do? Do you think they don't know we 'ont make the effort? The writers don't write thinkin' we can understand, nor the painters don't paint expectin' us to be interested – that they don't, nor don't the composers give out music thinkin' we can appreciate it. 'Blust,' they say, 'the masses is too stupid for us to come down to them. Blust,' they say, 'if they don't make no effort why should we bother?' So you know who come along? The slop singers and the pop writers and the film makers and the women's magazines and the tabloid papers and the picture-strip love stories – thaas who come along, and you don't hev to make no effort for them, it come easy… The whole stinkin' commercial world insults us and we don't care a damn. Well Ronnie's right – it's our own bloody fault. We want the third-rate – we got it!"

Notable productions
Gene Wilder made his off-Broadway debut in the 1961 New York City production as Frankie Bryant.

In 2008 Jo Combes directed a production at the Royal Exchange, Manchester, with Denise Black as Mrs Bryant and Claire Brown as Beatie Bryant. Black won a MEN Award for her performance.

Annette Mary Solange Georges (born 1957) is a lawyer, Seychellois politician and the first leader of the Seychelles United Opposition Party.

Biography 
Annette Georges was born in Seychelles in 1957. She grew up in a family that was already involved in the politics of her country. Her father was a minister and a member of the Seychelles National Assembly on the ticket of Seychelles Democratic Party (SDP) that later metamorphosed into the SDP-SPUD after forming a coalition with the Seychelles People's Unity Party (SPUP).

She studied law in the United Kingdom and was called to the bar in 1980. Her first job upon return from the United Kingdom was a position in the office of the Attorney General. She rose through the ranks until she became deputy attorney general. In 1985, she was appointed to become a Magistrate.

Annette Georges was the founding member of Parti Seselwa, one of the first political parties to come into existence after Seychelles was declared a multi party state. Parti Seselwa later merged with two other opposition parties to form the United Opposition (UO) Party, of which she was the treasurer and leader.  In 1994, Georges stepped down as leader, and Wavel Ramkalawan was elected as her successor.

Georges was the vice-presidential candidate of the Seychelles National Party for the 1998, 2001, and 2006 elections.

Arne Joachim Bendiksen (19 October 1926 – 26 March 2009) was a Norwegian singer, composer and producer, described as "the father of pop music" in Norway.

Career
Bendiksen was born in Bergen, Norway.  In the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, he was a major figure in Norwegian popular music. First, as a member of the group The Monn Keys, later as soloist and composer for other artists. Besides writing his own songs, he also translated many foreign hits into Norwegian, making them Norwegian hits. Arne Bendiksen took part in the Norwegian Eurovision Song Contest selections several times, both as an artist and as a songwriter. Three times he represented Norway in Eurovision as singer; in 1964 (Eurovision Song Contest 1964) with Spiral as soloist, in 1973 (Eurovision Song Contest 1973) with Å, for et spill and in 1974 (Eurovision Song Contest 1974) with Hvor er du?. Four times he took part as composer, most memorable as songwriter for Åse Kleveland's Intet er nytt under solen in 1966 (Eurovision Song Contest), finishing a strong third.

Beginning in 1964 he was the boss of his own record company. Thanks to him, popular artists like Wenche Myhre and Kirsti Sparboe reached fame. However, in the Eurovision Song Contest finals of 1969, Norway received a mere 1 point for the song Oj, oj, oj, så glad jeg skal bli, which was composed by Arne Bendiksen and performed by Kirsti Sparboe.

Arne did not let this crush his spirits though, and he continued his dedicated work as a singer/songwriter throughout the 1970s. In the 1980s, he gave a shot at the popular children's cassette industry and released his major children's work Barnefest i Andeby – Children's party in Duckburg – a cassette filled with catchy songs about the various Disney characters inhabiting the fictional city of Duckburg. This popular cassette got a sequel, released especially for the Christmas season, called Jul i Andeby – Christmas in Duckburg''.

In June 2006, his all-new self-composed children's musical stage debuted in the small elementary school Fjellstrand Skole in Nesodden, Akershus.

Arne Bendiksen died on 26 March 2009, after having been sick for a short period of time. The cause of death was heart failure.

The quantum pendulum is fundamental in understanding hindered internal rotations in chemistry, quantum features of scattering atoms, as well as numerous other quantum phenomena.  Though a pendulum not subject to the small-angle approximation has an inherent nonlinearity, the Schrödinger equation for the quantized system can be solved relatively easily.

Schrödinger equation

Using Lagrangian mechanics from classical mechanics, one can develop a Hamiltonian for the system.  A simple pendulum has one generalized coordinate (the angular displacement ) and two constraints (the length of the string and the plane of motion).  The kinetic and potential energies of the system can be found to be

This results in the Hamiltonian

The time-dependent Schrödinger equation for the system is

One must solve the time-independent Schrödinger equation to find the energy levels and corresponding eigenstates.  This is best accomplished by changing the independent variable as follows:
 

This is simply Mathieu's differential equation

whose solutions are Mathieu functions.

Solutions

Energies
Given , for countably many special values of , called characteristic values, the Mathieu equation admits solutions that are periodic with period .  The characteristic values of the Mathieu cosine, sine functions respectively are written , where  is a natural number.  The periodic special cases of the Mathieu cosine and sine functions are often written  respectively, although they are traditionally given a different normalization (namely, that their norm equals ).

The boundary conditions in the quantum pendulum imply that  are as follows for a given :

The energies of the system,  for even/odd solutions respectively, are quantized based on the characteristic values found by solving the Mathieu equation.

The effective potential depth can be defined as

A deep potential yields the dynamics of a particle in an independent potential.  In contrast, in a shallow potential, Bloch waves, as well as quantum tunneling, become of importance.

General solution
The general solution of the above differential equation for a given value of a and q is a set of linearly independent Mathieu cosines and Mathieu sines, which are even and odd solutions respectively.  In general, the Mathieu functions are aperiodic; however, for characteristic values of , the Mathieu cosine and sine become periodic with a period of .

Eigenstates

For positive values of q, the following is true:

Here are the first few periodic Mathieu cosine functions for .

Note that, for example,  (green) resembles a cosine function, but with flatter hills and shallower valleys.

Fryingpan Glacier is on the eastern face of the  Little Tahoma Peak, just to the east of Mount Rainier in the U.S. state of Washington. The glacier is located on top of a cliff from the Emmons Glacier to the north and a small ridge separates this glacier from the Whitman Glacier to the south, except for a small snowfield in which these two glaciers are connected.  Most of the ice is located on a broad plateau at an elevation of . The head of the Fryingpan Glacier is located to the northeast of the ridge and at the foothill of Little Tahoma Peak at around . The glacier flows downhill eastward and the uneven topography causes the glacier surface to be crevassed The glacier ends on shallow to steep slopes at about . Numerous snowfields and alpine meadows are located near the bottom and east of the glacier. Meltwater from the glacier drains into the White River.

Ricochet is the eighth and final studio album by Australian band Jo Jo Zep & The Falcons. It is the first studio album from the band in over 20 years. The album featured the "classic" line-up of The Falcons: Joe Camilleri on vocals and sax, Jeff Burstin on guitar, Tony Faeshe on guitar, Wilbur Wilde on sax, John Power on bass, and Gary Young on drums. Ricochet was released in September 2003. The album was supported with a national tour in early 2004.

Reception
Hector from HMV said "Ricochet is bluesy, dirty R&B paying homage to Joe Camilleri's early influences. The man can write a hook in his sleep but this isn't about capturing the charts once more. This is about musicians being true to their craft and acting their age. That in mind, take Ricochet for the new music it is and Jo Jo Zep and the Falcons for what they are now." He also described the album as "low-key" and added, "There's nothing too hard to have to think about here. Simply enjoy."

Cladonia lutescens is a species of fruticose lichen in the family Cladoniaceae. It occurs in high-altitude conditions of the Himalayas.

Taxonomy

First described in 2007 by lichenologists Teuvo Ahti, Dalip Kumar Upreti, and Sanjeeva Nayaka, Cladonia lutescens derives its name from the Latin lutescens, reflecting the unique yellowish tinge of its thallus, or body. The holotype, the reference specimen for this species, was discovered in Chitkul forest area, a high-altitude region in Himachal Pradesh, India. The species falls within the traditional section Cocciferae of genus Cladonia, which includes several ochraceous-fruited members.

Description

One of the hallmarks of Cladonia lutescens is its , which is inconspicuous yet detailed. The , tiny scale-like structures, range from 0.3 to 1.5 mm wide. These gradually turn from a cream to a yellowish-grey hue as they age, developing granular soredia, or vegetative reproductive structures, along the way. The podetia, the lichen's stalk-like structures, are slender with a cream yellow to yellow colour. These structures, measuring from 0.35 to 1.5 cm tall, rarely branch out but rather ascend in a taper towards the top. They may also bear minuscule  near the base. The soredia, measuring between 20 and 40 μm, dot the podetia's surface like fine dust.

Usnic acid and homosekikaic acid occur within Cladonia lutescens but it does not respond to the standard chemical spot tests. It closely aligns with the Cocciferae section within its genus. A comparison can be drawn with C. bacilliformis, a species found across the boreal zone's coniferous trees. However, the presence of homosekikaic acid, absent in C. bacilliformis, helps distinguish Cladonia lutescens.

Habitat and distribution

Found only in Himachal Pradesh's Himalayan region, Cladonia lutescens prefers the bark of coniferous trees, especially those in the genus Pinus. It thrives in harsh conditions at altitudes ranging between .
