Patricia Eileen Kuderer (born 1958) is an American politician and attorney serving as a member of the Washington State Senate for the 48th district. She was appointed to the State Senate after Cyrus Habib was elected lieutenant governor.

Early life and education 
Kuderer was born in Minneapolis. She earned a Bachelor of Arts in history from the University of Minnesota and a Juris Doctor from the William Mitchell College of Law (now the Mitchell Hamline School of Law).

Political career 
The King County Council appointed Kuderer to the Washington House of Representatives in 2015, following the resignation of Ross Hunter.

In 2019, Kuderer sponsored a bill to require presidential candidates to release five years of tax returns to qualify for the Washington state primary and general election ballots. Kuderer's bill is similar to legislation proposed in at least 25 other states, which have begun a debate on the Constitutional  authority  for states to make the tax return release a requirement. The bill was signed into law on April 26, 2019.

On January 20, 2020, a complaint was filed by the Washington Asians for Equality and the American Coalition for Equality for Kuderer's use of the phrase "Chinese fire drill" during a committee hearing on January 17. Kuderer had apologized at the January 20 session of the committee, before the complaint was filed.

Gun control 

Kuderer sponsored a bill to prohibit open carry of weapons around the state Capitol and around permitted public demonstrations, that was signed into law on May 12, 2021.

In April 2023 Kuderer supported a bill that would ban the import, manufacture and sale of guns defined as assault weapons.

Neokastra (, "new fortresses", formally θέμα Νεοκάστρων; in Latin sources Neocastri or Neochastron) was a Byzantine province (theme) of the 12th–13th centuries in north-western Asia Minor (modern Turkey).

Its origin and extent are obscure. According to Niketas Choniates, the theme was founded by Manuel I Komnenos (r. 1143–1180) between 1162 and 1173. Manuel I scoured the region around three cities—Chliara (mod. Kırkağaç), Pergamon and Adramyttion—from the Turkish bands that raided it, rebuilt and refortified the cities and established forts in the countryside and made them into a separate province under a governor titled harmostes ("supervisor") by the archaizing Choniates, but whose actual title in all probability must have been doux. The imperial chrysobull of 1198 to the Venetians on the other hand mentions Adramyttion apart from the Neokastra, and the Partitio Romaniae of 1204 mentions the province of Neokastra as being entirely separate from all three cities. The Byzantinist Helene Ahrweiler interpreted the evidence to suggest that Neokastra did indeed originally encompass the three cities, but that in 1198 Adramyttion may have formed a separate district, and that the separation between the cities and the province evidenced in the Partitio was the result of a copyist's error.

The theme survived the destruction of the Byzantine Empire by the Fourth Crusade, and was retained by the Empire of Nicaea, where it constituted, along with the Thracesian Theme to the south, the most important provinces. The boundaries of the Nicaean province were different, however: Adramyttion was lost to the new Latin Empire, and Pergamon was abandoned and fell in ruins. The account of George Akropolites, reflecting the new situation, mentions Neokastra apart from Chliara and Pergamon, and records the village of Kalamos (mod. Gelenbe) as the northernmost point of the theme, at the Nicaean frontier zone with the Latins. On the basis of Akropolites' passage, the scholar Ruth Macrides suggested an alternative reading of Choniates' passage, which would place the original theme of Neokastra immediately to the east of the three cities. Ahrweiler also suggested that the Nicaean-era province of Neokastra extended as far south as Magnesia or Sardis, but this is conjectural. A handful of governors of the theme are known: Manuel Kalampakes ca. 1284, a certain Libadarios, who was involved in the revolt of Alexios Philanthropenos in 1296, and the parakoimomenos Constantine Doukas Nestongos, active in 1303/4, whom Ahrweiler identifies as the theme's last known doux. The region fell shortly thereafter to the Anatolian beyliks of Karasi and Sarukhan.

Lynn G. Berbano Finnegan (born October 3, 1970), was a Republican member of the Hawaii House of Representatives, representing the state's 32nd district from 2003 to 2011. The district includes the Lower Pearlridge, Aiea, Halawa, Hickam, Pearl Harbor and Moanalua Gardens  on the island of Oahu.

In 2005, Finnegan was selected to be the Minority Leader for the Republican members of the State House. She was re-selected as such in 2007 and 2009.

In 2008, the Aspen Institute's Rodel Fellowships in Public Leadership selected Representative Lynn Finnegan as one of 24 elected public officials as its 2008 class of Fellows. Each member of the class was selected on their reputation for intellect, thoughtfulness, and bipartisan approach to governing. The class is evenly divided between Republicans and Democrats and represents Fellows from 22 states, serving at both local and state levels of government.

In 2009, Finnegan voted against HB 444, a Hawaii civil union bill. She said, "If we push to have government certify or make legal a union or marriage between the same sex, I believe that we push what is accepted to what will be promoted."

In 2009, Finnegan was selected as one of the 100 Most Influential Filipina Women in the U.S. An award by the Filipina Women's Network. Representative Finnegan was awarded in the Policymakers & Visionaries category which recognize Filipina women leaders who have made or are making a difference in government policies or laws that impact business, industry, and society and who enrich the lives and careers of others by sharing the benefits of their wealth, experience, and knowledge.

Finnegan declined to run for re-election in 2010, instead running for Lieutenant Governor of Hawaii in the 2010 election. She won the Republican primary and joined gubernatorial candidate Duke Aiona in the general election as his running mate. The Republican ticket was defeated by Democratic nominees Neil Abercrombie and Brian Schatz.

Recent career
Finnegan currently serves as Assistant Head of Schools at Hanalani Schools, her alma mater. She had previously worked at Waialae Elementary School, Voyager Charter School, and Hawaii Public Charter Schools.

Lake Rerewhakaaitu is a small, shallow lake in northern New Zealand, located 30 kilometres to the east of Rotorua. It is immediately south of the active volcano Mount Tarawera, and the geography was substantially altered by the 1886 eruption of Mount Tarawera.

Geography

At a mean autumn height of  above sea level the lake is highest and southernmost of the Rotorua Te Arawa lakes.  Occupying a shallow basin, it is mostly surrounded by farming pasture; although over the past few decades, exotic and indigenous forest cover has begun to appear.

Water Flow
The lake is feed by the Awaroa and Mangakino Streams. The lake has no permanent outflow, as it is above the water table of much of the surrounding land ( by perhaps up to  except at north-eastern side), but has an artificial overflow channel to the south east to control the maximum height. Also, when the lake is high, water can flow down the Mangaharakeke Stream due to these water table issues. Further the Awaroa Stream is ephemeral. 

It is believed that the springs at the head of Te Kauae Stream are sourced from the lake as part of  ground water outflow from its catchment into that of Lake Rotomahana to its north-west.  Groundwater also flows south-east of the lake into the Rangitaiki River catchment.

Geology
The lake is believed to be about 11,000 years old, having formed after the Waiohau eruption of 14,009 ± 155 years ago. The area of the lake and its catchment has multiple rhyolitic pyroclastics from Mount Tarawera eruptions.  Parts of the Whakamaru Group of ignimbrite define the south-east and parts of the northern lake shore, and that massive eruption sequence of the Whakamaru Caldera was about 335,000 years ago.

The 1886 eruption of Mount Tarawera covered the lake area in tephra to a depth between . Some of the ash deposits in the catchment, particularly the even thicker ones to the north of the lake, would have been washed into the lake within a year or two as described at the time.

Ecology
The lake is home to 46 different bird species with nine of these classified as threatened. This includes the largest breeding population of banded dotterel in the Rotorua Ecological District.

It is stocked with introduced Rainbow trout.

The lake is classified as mesotrophic, with moderate productivity and water quality. Its trophic level index was 3.4 in 2014.

Culture
The shores of the lake are often the scene of dog shows, like those from Rotorua, Agility during Easter, and the obedience show in January.

Education
Lake Rerewhakaaitu School is a co-educational state primary school for Year 1 to 8 students, with a roll of  as of .

Acacia leucoclada, commonly known as the northern silver wattle, is a species of Acacia native to eastern Australia.

Description
The tree typically grows to a height of  and has smooth grey bark that becomes rough and fissured. It has angled to terete ridged branchlets. The tips of immature foliage are a silvery to whitish, coloured and densely haired. The silvery to green and herbaceous or subcoriaceous leaves form along  long rachis with 5 to 18 pairs of pinnae that are  in length. There are 11 to 45 pairs of pinnules that have a narrowly oblend shape and are  in length with a single vein. It blooms between July and October producing simple inflorescences in axillary and terminal racemes supported on  long hairy stalks. The spherical flower-heads have a diameter of  and contain 20 to 26 yellow to bright yellow flowers. The seed pods that form after flowering are straight to slightly curved and occasionally twisted. The thinly leathery pods are more or less flat and often slightly constricted between the seeds with a length of  and a width of  and are usually have a fine white powdery coating.

Taxonomy and naming
A. leucoclada was first described in 1966, by Mary Tindale. The specific epithet, leucoclada, derives from two Greek words: leucos (white) and clados (shoot/sprout) which were combined to give leucocladus, - a, -um, describing the plant as having white shoots.

Distribution
The range of A. leucoclada extends from south-eastern Queensland to the north coast, tablelands region, the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range, the central coast, Hunter River valley and Pilliga scrub regions of New South Wales. It is mostly found as far south as Wagga and is often part of sclerophyll woodland communities growing in a variety of different habitats and soil types.

The Braden Scale for Predicting Pressure Ulcer Risk, is a tool that was developed in 1987 by Barbara Braden and Nancy Bergstrom. The purpose of the scale is to help health professionals, especially nurses, assess a patient's risk of developing a pressure ulcer.

Assessment using the Braden Scale

The Braden scale assesses a patient's risk of developing a pressure ulcer by examining six criteria:

Sensory perception
This parameter measures a patient's ability to detect and respond to discomfort or pain that is related to pressure on parts of their body. The ability to sense pain itself plays into this category, as does the level of consciousness of a patient and therefore their ability to cognitively react to pressure-related discomfort.

Moisture
Excessive and continuous skin moisture can pose a risk to compromise the integrity of the skin by causing the skin tissue to become macerated and therefore be at risk for epidermal erosion. So this category assesses the degree of moisture the skin is exposed to.

Activity
This category looks at a patient's level of physical activity since very little or no activity can encourage atrophy of muscles and breakdown of tissue.

Mobility
This category looks at the capability of a patient to adjust their body position independently. This assesses the physical competency to move and can involve the clients willingness to move.

Nutrition
The assessment of a client's nutritional status looks at their normal patterns of daily nutrition. Eating only portions of meals or having imbalanced nutrition can indicate a high risk in this category.

Friction and Shear
Friction and shear looks at the amount of assistance a client needs to move and the degree of sliding on beds or chairs that they experience. This category is assessed because the sliding motion can cause shear which means the skin and bone are moving in opposite directions causing breakdown of cell membranes and capillaries. Moisture enhances the susceptibility of friction.

Scoring with the Braden Scale
Each category is rated on a scale of 1 to 4, excluding the 'friction and shear' category which is rated on a 1-3 scale. This combines for a possible total of 23 points, with a higher score meaning a lower risk of developing a pressure ulcer and vice versa. A score of 23 means there is no risk for developing a pressure ulcer while the lowest possible score of 6 points represents the severest risk for developing a pressure ulcer.  
The Braden Scale assessment score scale:
Very High Risk: Total Score 9 or less
High Risk: Total Score 10-12
Moderate Risk: Total Score 13-14
Mild Risk: Total Score 15-18
No Risk:  Total Score 19-23
