George Frederick Keck (1895-1980) was an American modernist architect based in Chicago, Illinois. He was later assisted in his practice by his brother William Keck to form the firm of Keck & Keck.

Biography
Keck was born in Watertown, Wisconsin, the eldest of five boys. He studied engineering for a year at the University of Wisconsin and then studied architecture engineering at the University of Illinois. Starting in the 1920s, he worked as a draftsman for several Chicago firms, including D. H. Burnham & Company and Schmidt, Garden and Martin. He started his own practice in 1926, and was joined by his younger brother William five years later. George took an interest in the Deutscher Werkbund and the emerging International Style.

Career

Keck designed two key model structures for the Century of Progress exhibition in Chicago in 1933; dubbed the "House of Tomorrow". These two structures played in key role in the development of Keck's form of modernism. In 1934 he designed another model house, "Crystal House", which was directly reminiscent of the work of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Marcel Breuer.

Keck became a pioneering designer of passive solar houses in the 1930s and 40s after realizing that the all-glass "House of Tomorrow" was warm inside on sunny winter days prior to the installation of the furnace. Following this he gradually started incorporating more south-facing windows into his designs for other clients, and in 1940 designed a passive solar home for real estate developer Howard Sloan in Glenview, Illinois. The Sloan House was called a "solar house" by the Chicago Tribune, the first modern use of that term. Sloan then built a number of passive solar houses, and his publicity efforts contributed to a significant "solar house" movement in the 1940s.

Keck taught architecture at the New Bauhaus School (now IIT Institute of Design). He was the head of architecture there until 1942 and appointed Ralph Rapson as his successor. Rapson also worked in Keck's office during this period, as did fellow New Bauhaus School professor Robert Bruce Tague.

The velvety myotis (Myotis simus), is a species of vesper bat from South America.

Description
The velvety myotis is a small bat, although of average size for a myotine, with a total length of  and weighing between . It has short, velvety, orange-brown fur over the whole of the body, which may fade to a brownish shade in preserved specimens. The ears and wing membranes are black and hairless.

The ears are short and triangular, with a pointed tragus. Velvety myotis can be distinguished from all other New World members of the genus Myotis by the velvety nature of its fur, possession of larger canine teeth, and by the shape of plagiopatagium and the absence of fur on the trailing edge of the uropatagium. These differences were once considered sufficient to place the bat within its own monotypic subgenus, but this has not been supported by subsequent analysis.

Distribution
It is found in northern and western Brazil, southern Colombia, eastern Ecuador and Peru, and in Bolivia, Paraguay, and northwestern Argentina. It inhabits lowland forest and savannah habitats, close to bodies of fresh water. No subspecies are currently recognised, although a possible subspecies, or even full species, has been proposed for Bolivian specimens.

Biology
The velvety myotis feeds on insects, including beetles, bugs, moths, and flies, which it typically captures over water. They are generally found near rivers or over floodplains. They spend the day roosting in hollow trees, in burrows made by other animals, or beneath the thatched roofs of local buildings. They have often been recorded roosting together with lesser bulldog bats, an unrelated species with similar habitat preferences. Little is known of their reproduction, although, like most bats, they apparently give birth to single offspring. Pregnant females have been captured between September and March.

Sengyou (; 445–518 AD) was a Buddhist monk and early medieval Chinese bibliographer and noted chiefly for being the author of Collected Records concerning the Tripitaka (出三藏記集 Chu sanzang jìjí, T2145), a catalogue of Buddhist texts translated into Chinese.

Sengyou's ancestral home was Xiapi in Pengcheng Commandery (northwest of modern Suining, Jiangsu). However, his father moved to Jiankang (建康), where he was born. His secular name was Yu. As a young boy he practiced devotions at Jianchu Monastery. At 14, rather than acquiesce to an arranged marriage, he took novice vows and entered Dinglin Monastery, Zhongshan in Jiankang. He was ordained as a bhikkhu aged 20 and received instruction in Vinaya by Faying (d.480). He became renown as a master of the Vinaya.

Chu sanzang jìjí

Although there were earlier works of bibliography with respect to Buddhist texts at the time, Sengyou introduced important innovations in how the texts were arranged, including a hierarchy of authenticity. Not only were Buddhist texts continually trickling in along the Silk Road, but the Chinese had begun to pass off local productions as authentic Indian sutras. Sengyou proposed criteria for assessing the authenticity of Buddhist sutras at a time when many fake or apocryphal texts were in circulation. He was particularly focussed on the translator of a text, and this made him suspicious of unattributed texts. As Tanya Storch says, "Absence of information about the translator was a signal that it might be a compilation by a Chinese person who did not understand Sanskrit and had never studied Buddhism in the west [i.e. India].

The Chu sanzang jìjí is presented in five sections

 A discussion on the provenance of translated scriptures, 
 A record of (new) titles and their listings in earlier catalogues, 
 Prefaces to scriptures,
 Miscellaneous treatises on specific doctrines, and 
 Biographies of translators.

"By subjecting Buddhist scriptures to the textual criticism similar to that applied to the Confucian classics, Sengyou managed to elevate the literary and social status of the Tripiṭaka.” At the Liang court, Sengyou's work was overshadowed by the catalogue of Baochang () who produced his catalogue in 521 CE. However, it is Sengyou's catalogue that survives.

Sengyou was assisted in his literary work by his student, Liu Xie, who went on to write an important work on literary aesthetics.

Alfred Edwin Winter (18 November 1862 – 11 June 1939) was an Australian politician who represented the multi-member seat of Wallaroo in the South Australian House of Assembly from 1905 to 1912 for the United Labor Party.

Winter was the third son and eighth child of state school teacher Augustus Winter. He was born at Macclesfield, South Australia, and was taught by his father at the school at Moonta. He started his working life aged 12, apprenticed as a grocer's assistant in Hindmarsh. After four years, he went to work on his uncle's farm on Yorke Peninsula. Following five years of drought, Winter returned to Adelaide to work as a porter at Adelaide railway station. He later worked at the Broken Hill mines as a rate collector, then at Macumba Station and in the Telegraph Department at William Creek for five years before returning to Adelaide again. He conducted business there but a year later went to Wallaroo to work for the Wallaroo and Moonta Mining Company, where he remained until elected to parliament in 1905. He married Jane Shepherd from Balaklava in 1888. They had two sons.

Winter was first elected in 1905. He did not seek re-election for a fourth term at the 1912 election.

Following parliament, Winter lived on his farm at Port Clinton for 26 years and retired to Richmond only two years before his death. He was survived by his wife and two sons.

The warteye stargazer (Gillellus uranidea) is a species of sand stargazer native to the Atlantic coast of southwestern Florida, United States, and in the Caribbean Sea from the Bahamas and the coast of Central America to Panama where it can be found in sandy areas on reefs or among rocks.  It is an ambush predator, burying itself nearly completely in the sand and waiting for prey items to come along.  It can reach a maximum length of  TL.

The warteye stargazer exhibits biofluorescence, that is, when illuminated by blue or ultraviolet light, it re-emits it in the yellow-red range, and appears differently than under white light illumination (see image to the right). Biofluorescence may assist in intraspecific communication and camouflage.

Cycas apoa is a species of cycad in the genus Cycas, native to northern New Guinea and Halmahera Island. It occurs in the Sepik River basin, in wet lowland forest in modestly seasonally flooded areas.

It has erect stems up to 2.5 m tall. The leaves are hairy and orange at first, soon losing the hair and becoming glossy bright green, numerous and spreading, 1.8-2.5 m long. The petiole is armed with spines nearly over its entirety, with glabrous, glossy green leaflets angled forward  about 70-80 degrees.

The female cones are open, grey with orange hairs, with each sporophyll containing 6-8 ovules. The male cones are orange, narrowly ovoid.

The name derives from the plant's vernacular name in the language of the Kaka tribe of the Sepik River estuary in New Guinea.

First described in 1994, the plants were previously thought to be a population of Cycas circinalis. It is closely related to Cycas rumphii, with which it shares much of its geographical range. This species is not presently considered threatened, with a large population, fast growth, and remote habitat.

The Minissima is a small concept city car that was designed by William Towns (as the Townscar) as his idea for a replacement for the Mini in 1972. It was displayed by BLMC on their stand at the 1973 London Motor Show after they bought the prototype from Towns.

In common with the Mini it was designed around 10" wheels and the BMC A-Series engine. It is 30" (75 cm) shorter than the Mini and designed to park end-on to the curb (like the Smart Fortwo), having only one door - at the rear. It has four seats, two at the front, front facing, and two facing inwards at the rear.

The Minissina design re-emerged a few years later as a prototype car for the disabled, adapted by engineering firm GKN Sankey by ex Ford engineer Fred Hart. During the engineering process, the layout changed to feature a central driving position in which a wheelchair user would enter through the back door using a fold-down rear ramp, and drive off. The styling was simplified by William Towns to suit mass production and won a Design Council award in 1978, it did not gain government support due to high costs and the project was cancelled.

GKN sold the rights to British bicycle manufacturer Elswick, and a small number were manufactured from 1981 to 1987 and were sold as the Elswick Envoy. In 2007, an Elswick Envoy was the subject of a 24-minute short film, Elegy for the Elswick Envoy, which shared the prize for best documentary in the 2008 Aspen Shortsfest film festival.
