Matthew Maxwell Taylor Kennedy Jr. (born September 18, 1993) is an American government volunteer, political organizer, and member of the Kennedy family. He is the whistleblower who sent a complaint to the United States House Committee on Oversight and Reform regarding the White House Coronavirus Task Force, which he worked on as a volunteer. Kennedy worked for the Democratic Party on their 2020 campaign efforts.

Biography 
Kennedy was born on September 18, 1993 to Victoria Anne Strauss and Max Kennedy. He is a grandson of Robert F. Kennedy and Ethel Kennedy. Kennedy grew up in Hyannis Port, Massachusetts near the Kennedy Compound. As a teenager he volunteered with Riverkeeper. He graduated from Harvard University in 2016. After graduating, he did part time work at consulting and investment firms and had planned to take the LSAT in March 2020 and apply to law schools, until the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. A lifelong Democrat, Kennedy felt torn about volunteering to work in the Trump Administration, but decided the job "didn't seem political." He joined the White House Coronavirus Task Force's Supply-Chain Task Force, led by President Donald Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, that formed to provide protective equipment to places where outbreaks of the virus had occurred.

On his first day as a task force volunteer, Kennedy arrived at the Federal Emergency Management Agency headquarters and joined a team of a dozen volunteers, all in their twenties. Kennedy, who took the position with the intention of being support staff for the task force, told The New Yorker that he and the other volunteers were the official task force team for the U.S. Federal Government. He and other volunteers were responsible for obtaining medical supplies using their own personal computers and private email accounts. Kennedy was pressured by Brad Smith, an appointee directing the task force, to create a model with false information on the projected number of coronavirus fatalities in the United States. Kennedy declined to perform the assignment. Kennedy stated that the task force was instructed to prioritize requests from the President's supporters and friends, including Jeanine Pirro. They were also instructed to direct millions of dollars' worth of medical supplies to five pre-selected distributors. In April 2020, despite having signed a nondisclosure agreement, he sent an anonymous complaint to the United States House Committee on Oversight and Reform detailing failures and "dangerous incompetence" in the Trump Administration's response to the pandemic. Kennedy referred to the Trump Administration's coronavirus response as "family office meets organized crime, melded with Lord of the Flies" and called it "a government of chaos." He quit the task force later that month and now works for the Democratic Party, helping the Joe Biden 2020 presidential campaign.

Kennedy is featured in Alex Gibney's 2020 documentary Totally Under Control.

Candelariella is a genus of bright yellow, ocher, or greenish yellow crustose or squamulose lichens in the family Candelariaceae. Members of the genus are commonly called eggyolk lichens, goldspeck lichens, or yolk lichens. The genus was circumscribed in 1894 by Swiss lichenologist Johannes Müller Argoviensis, with Candelariella vitellina assigned as the type species.

Characteristics 
The key feature of Candelariella species are the distinct yellow apothecia. Although all species are very small, even the smallest can be identified by the lemon-yellow to orange-yellow discs. Most species have a yellow thallus, although Candelariella antennaria is one example with a grey thallus. Some species are pycnidiate. This genus will generally have all spot tests emerge as negative, although K tests may have an orange or reddish colour on some species' apothecia.

Spore count between species varies from 8 to 32 simply or thinly septate spores. Spores often hold one to two oil drops.

Habitat and distribution
Candelariella species are found across the globe, although most commonly described in North America, Asia, and Australia. Species can be found on calcareous and non-calcareous rock, soil, tree bark, mosses, and other lichens. While some species may grow only on rock, and others only on trees, the more generalist species can be found in a variety of locations.

Ecology
As of 2016, 16 lichenicolous fungi have been documented parasitising species of the genus Candellariella. These are: Tremella candelariellae, Polysporina subfuscescens, Sarcogyne sphaeospora, Arthonia almquistii, Caloplaca grimmiae, Carbonea vitellinaria, Trichonectria furcatosetosa, Lichenochora arctica, Sarcopyrenia cylindrospora, Zwackhiomyces lecanorae, Phoma candelariellae, Henfellra muriformis, Ascochyta candelariellicola, Taeniolella delicata, Intralichen christiansenii, and Intralichen lichenicola.

}}For the Record''' is a Canadian television drama anthology series that aired on CBC Television from 1976 to 1986. The series aired docudrama-style television films on contemporary social issues, typically airing between four and six films per year.

The series was cancelled in 1985, although the CBC opted to continue commissioning similar television films as standalone productions, beginning with 1986's Turning to Stone.

ConceptFor the Record was intended as a series of dramas which would take an honest look at problems in Canadian society, among them many about mental illness and "flawed social institutions".

Critical assessment
Gail Henley remarked in 1985 that For the Record'' dramas were "information laden" when compared to their more emotional American counterparts and emphasises the importance of research and documentation for the series. As Bill MacVicar put it:Topicality is both a blessing and a bane for television. Since the time from concept to telecast can be much shorter than for movies, television appears better briefed and more up-to-date. But the voraciousness of the medium encourages clumsy or cynical abuse of topicality; all too often (as in the slack Lou Grant the mere act of raising an issue is assumed to be tantamount to solving it; in other cases, solutions are so slickly simplified that what purports to be an investigation is little more than a case of special pleading. In contrast to this frequent shortcoming, the CBC's For the Record series tends to do justice to the problems it airs.

Some animals suffer from shortsightedness and have poor eyesight. In domestic animals, myopia, with or without astigmatism, occurs frequently.

In cats 
Evolved for low-light hunting, cats' eyes are proportionally enormous. Their eye size makes focusing between near and far so difficult that the muscles develop with an environmental bias. Outdoor cats tend to be farsighted, while most indoor cats are nearsighted but not myopic. Cats are unable to focus on anything less than a foot in front of them.

In dogs 
One animal species in which myopia occurs naturally is the domestic dog. Although the prevalence of myopia in dogs is breed dependent, approximately 8% to 15% of Labrador Retrievers are reported to have myopia.

In rhinoceroses 
Whereas the rhinoceros may suffer from less-than-adequate eyesight, it generally survives by concentrating with its superior hearing and sense of smell. Some reports, however state that it can see better when focusing with one eye, particularly when walking, posturing, and combatting.

Research 
Myopia, with or without astigmatism, is the most common eye condition in horses.
Several types of occlusion myopia have been recorded in tree shrews, macaques, cats and rats, deciphered from several animal-inducing myopia models. Preliminary laboratory investigations using retinoscopy of 240 dogs found myopic problems with varying degrees of refraction errors depending on the breed. In cases involving German Shepherds, Rottweilers and Miniature horses, the refraction errors were indicative of myopia. Nuclear sclerosis of the crystalline lens was noticed in older dogs.

Experiments into newborn macaque monkeys have revealed that surgically fusing the eyelid for one year results in eye deterioration as the eye has not had a chance to grow and develop. Keeping monkeys in the dark for a similar period, however, does not lead to myopia.  In 1996, Maurice and Mushin conducted tests on rabbits by raising their body temperatures and intraocular pressures (IOP) and noted that while younger rabbits were prone to developing myopia, older rabbits were not. Some tests have revealed that myopia in some animals can be improved with eye drops containing zinc, by increasing the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD).

The rhesus monkey's vision amplitude reduction is noticeable in its second decade of life; however the condition does not impede normal functioning. Older rhesus monkeys have more difficulty accommodating this reduction in vision amplitude, encountering difficulty in focusing on objects at close range, even objects on the ground within an arm's length.

Andrzej Zaucha (; 12 January 1949 – 10 October 1991) was a Polish rhythm & blues and pop-jazz singer, occasionally also an actor. He was a self-taught musician who never took any professional vocal lessons.

Biography 
Zaucha was born and lived in Kraków. In his teens, he achieved nationwide success in canoeing. After school he became a typesetter. Zaucha never had any musical education, however, he was raised in a musical environment as his father was a drummer in the band that performed small gigs at the dancing-parties. Therefore, after a few years, Andrzej performed as a drummer in several musical groups, before becoming the lead-vocalist of a jazz fusion band Dżamble. He released only one album with them, Wołanie o słońce nad światem, and subsequently joined another group, Anawa, with whom he released a self-titled LP in 1973.

He embarked on a solo musical career by releasing a single in 1980. It was followed by the concept album Wszystkie stworzenia duże i małe in 1983, with the popular title song recorded with Ewa Bem. In 1985, Zaucha performed at the National Festival of Polish Song in Opole. He also appeared in cameos in several Polish feature films. His second album, Stare, nowe, najnowsze was released in 1987 and included popular tracks "Bądź moim natchnieniem" and "C'est la vie – Paryż z pocztówki".

In 1988 he released the song "Byłaś serca biciem" which would become one of his biggest hits. The song was performed at the Opole Festival in the same year where it won an award. The following year, Zaucha released an English language, self-titled album. He then recorded one of the two existing Polish versions of the theme song for the Gummi Bears.

Zaucha was shot and killed in his home town Kraków at the age of 42, by French film director, Yves Goulais, along with Goulais's ex-wife Zuzanna whom he suspected of having an affair with Zaucha.
