The Rialto Theatre () is a former movie palace located on Park Avenue in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It is designated as a National Historic Site of Canada.

Built in 1923-1924 and designed by Montreal architect Joseph-Raoul Gariépy, who specialized in theatre and hospital projects, the Rialto was inspired by the Napoleon III style Paris Opera House. The interior was designed by Emmanuel Briffa, designer of over sixty Canadian movie houses, in the Louis XVI style. The Rialto operated as a cinema until the 1990s.

The Rialto Theatre has undergone many changes since 2000. All of the theatre seats were removed and attempts were even made to convert it into a steakhouse. After nearly thirty years of ownership, owner Elias Kalogeras was finally able to sell it in March 2010 to Le Groupe Merveilles Inc. and its owners Ezio Carosielli and Luisa Sassano. Since then, they have acted on their intention to protect the theatre and restore its unique architecture.

Esa Jouni Olavi Saarinen (born 27 July 1953 in Hyvinkää, Finland) is a Finnish philosopher who was a professor of applied philosophy at Aalto University and co-director of the Systems Intelligence Research Group. until his retirement in 2021.

Saarinen completed his PhD degree in 1978 at the University of Helsinki, where he has since held docentship. His extrovert public persona – he became known as the “punk doctor” – was reflected in his lectures at the university, which drew increasingly large audiences until the late 1990s. After failing to get the position of full-time professor at the Department of Philosophy at the University of Helsinki, Saarinen resigned from his lecturer position. Soon afterwards he was appointed professor at Helsinki University of Technology, since then renamed Aalto University.

Saarinen's philosophical interests have changed dramatically, from early writings in formal logic, to concerns with existentialism and later to media philosophy. The year 1994 saw the publication of Saarinen's best-known non-academic work, Imagologies: Media Philosophy, written jointly with American philosopher Mark C. Taylor.

In addition to academic teaching, Saarinen has also continued his business as a coach for Finnish companies and organisations, promoting a doctrine of self-actualization.

Saarinen is married to Pipsa Pallasvesa and has two sons, Jerome and Oliver, born in 1989.

One of Esa Saarinen's former students is the philosopher Pekka Himanen.

Esa Saarinen was stabbed with a knife by a student outside a lecture hall in March 2014. He survived without life-threatening injuries.

The Graduate Diploma in Law/Postgraduate Diploma in Law/Common Professional Examination (GDL/PGDL/CPE) is a postgraduate law course in England and Wales that is taken by non-law graduates (graduates who have a degree in a discipline that is not law or not a qualifying law degree for legal practice) wishing to become either a solicitor or barrister in England and Wales. The course allows non-law students to convert to law after university (exceptions exist for non-graduates depending on circumstances); it is commonly known as a "law conversion course". Regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority, the course is designed as an intense programme covering roughly the same content as a law degree LL.B (Hons) and the main goal is to allow people with a greater variety of educational backgrounds into the legal profession.

Most GDL/PGDL courses award a diploma and are thus often titled Common Professional Examination (CPE).  

The GDL/PGDL is one (full-time) or two (part-time) years long, and successful candidates may proceed to either the Legal Practice Course (LPC) for solicitors or the Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC) for barristers. It is regulated by the Law Society of England and Wales with admissions handled through the Central Applications Board.

Some law students study for four years (rather than three years, although this is usually only the case for students taking a combined law degree with the LPC, or for those whose courses include study abroad), making it possible for both non-law and law graduates of the same starting year to finish at the same time, with the CPE providing the "foundations of legal knowledge".

UK course providers 
In 1977, the former Inns of Court School of Law (now merged into City, University of London) launched their GDL/PGDL/CPE programme, which was the first of its kind in England and Wales.

The GDL/PGDL tends to be offered through private institutions or universities. The largest course providers are BPP Law School, City Law School and The University of Law.

The GDL/PGDL is also offered by several British universities including Cardiff University, the University of East Anglia, Keele University, the University of Sheffield, the University of Sussex, Swansea University, Birmingham City University, Manchester Metropolitan University, London Metropolitan University, the University of Westminster, Middlesex University, De Montfort University, University of East London, Nottingham Trent University and Oxford Brookes University.

Sylvia's Meadow, a Site of Special Scientific Interest, is a  nature reserve owned and managed by Cornwall Wildlife Trust. It is a herb rich,  site situated near Gunnislake, in East Cornwall, England.

History
During World War II a US military camp was situated in Sylvia's Meadow which housed only white American armed forces personnel. Black American airmen were billeted in an adjacent field. Since then the land has been left unploughed and unimproved. In this respect Sylvia's Meadow is virtually unique to Cornwall.

The meadow was designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest in 1992.

The reserve is named after a previous owner's daughter.

Flora and fauna
Sylvia's Meadow is an example of unimproved herb-rich pasture land containing some rare plant species. It is famed for the orchids that grow there, which include the lesser butterfly orchid and heath spotted orchid. Other species found here include: autumn ladies'-tresses, sneezewort, yellow rattle and bird's foot trefoil.

Butterflies that may be seen include wall, orange tip, dingy skipper and the common blue. Reptile sightings include the common lizard and the slow worm.

Mathematica Inc. was a multi-faceted American software company and consulting group founded by Princeton University professors in 1968. The computer had three primary divisions: Mathematica Policy Research, which did consulting work, mostly "to develop mathematical models for marketing decision making"; Mathematica Products Group, best known for developing RAMIS; and MathTech, the company's technical and economic consulting group. The company was also a leading developer of state lottery systems.

In early 1982, the company's stock was split 3-for-2. Mathematica Products Group was soon spun off and purchased by Martin Marietta Corporation, in May 1983. The division was then renamed Mathematica & Oxford Software. Marietta sold Mathematica & Oxford Software to On-Line Software International in 1986; On-Line was in turn sold to Computer Associates, in 1991. Mathematica Policy Research and MathTech meanwhile were spun off, and in 1986 both independently became employee-owned companies. Mathematica Policy Research was eventually renamed to Mathematica Inc.; it is the only former unit still carrying the Mathematica name.

Divisions
 Mathematica Policy Research⁣ – the only former unit still carrying the Mathematica name.
 Mathematica Products Group – best known for developing RAMIS
 MathTech, the company's technical and economic consulting group – "research projects and computer systems other than Ramis."

A quarter of a century after Mathematica's founding, it "was largely owned by a group of  professors in Mathematics and Economics at Princeton University ... as this group aged, they opted to cash out by selling." The result was a 3-way split: two units became employee-owned companies and another was sold several times.

Mathematica Products Group
In 1982, Mathematica Products Group's RAMIS was described as "nonprocedural" and "bordering on artificial intelligence." This unit of Mathematica was purchased by Martin Marietta Corporation in 1983 and renamed to Mathematica & Oxford Software. Marietta sold Mathematica & Oxford Software in 1986 to On-Line Software International, who merged the subsidiary into their own main operations; On-Line was in turn sold to Computer Associates, in 1991.

The RAMIS product sold well, initially on mainframes, subsequently on PCs.

Mathematica Policy Research
The Mathematica Policy Research (MPR) unit's strength was in "social experiments and surveys." In 1983 MPR reported "a major survey assignment for the American Medical Association."

In 1986, it became a separate, employee-owned company.

MathTech
Like MPR, in 1986 MathTech became an employee-owned company. Known today as Mathtech, Inc., it was described by The New York Times as "a Washington-area educational consulting firm

Acoustic Dreams is the second extended play by indie pop band Echosmith released June 10, 2014, on LP, CD, and digital download. It includes acoustic versions of four tracks from Talking Dreams, as well as one exclusive track, "Terminal."

Reception 
Tina Roumelioti of Buzznet gave the EP a positive review, saying, "My only wish is that this album were longer, but good things come in small packages. Take a moment out of your day to pick up Acoustic Dreams, lie on your bedroom floor with a pair of headphones and start dreaming."

Matt Collar of AllMusic gave a  brief, indifferent review, noting, "...Acoustic Dreams, finds the California-based pop/rock outfit taking several tracks from its 2013 full-length album, Talking Dreams, and reworking them in an acoustic style. Featured here are such Echosmith fan favorites as "Let's Love," "Cool Kids," "Tell Her You Love Her," and "Talking Dreams." Also included is one new, never-before-released cut, "Terminal.""

Music blog It's All Dead, in a review of the album's vinyl LP release, noted, "Overall, Acoustic Dreams is a great collection of songs, but the label did the band no favors with the release’s lack of extras. Regardless, it’s a fun release for fans of the band..."

Format availability 
While given a standard wide release on vinyl LP and digital download, the CD version was only available for purchase on Warped Tour 2014.

All tracks were written by Jeffery David and Echosmith, except where noted.

Gabriel Rzączyński (6 July 1664 – 12 November 1737) was a Polish Jesuit, naturalist, geographer, and writer. He published several works in Latin on the natural history of Poland.

Rzączyński was born in Podlasie, from a family bearing the Ślepowron coat of arms, and joined the Jesuit order in 1682 and became a grammar teacher from 1687 at Lublin. In 1692 he taught theology at Kraków, still later rhetoric and philosophy at Toruń, Lublin and Poznań, and Łuck. After 1717 he became a prefect of Gdańsk schools and from 1721 rector at Ostrog. Following his wide travels he wrote on the curiosities of natural history in his Historia naturalis curiosa Regni Poloniae, Magni Ducatus Litvaniae, annexarumque provinciarum, in tractatus XX divisa (1721). In 1745 was published posthumously his  historiae naturalis curiosae Regni Poloniae, Magni Ducatus Lithvaniae, annexarumque provinciarum, concinnatum. Aside from fauna, flora and geography, he wrote on contemporary myths and beliefs. In his 1721 work, he included descriptions of beliefs in vampires and walking corpses.

Elkem Thamshavn is a smelting plant owned by Elkem located at Thamshavn just north of Orkanger in Orkland Municipality in Trøndelag county, Norway. The plant produces silicon and microsilica and was started in 1931.

History
Copper and Sulfur have been excavated in the Løkken Mines since 1654 that had to be freighted down to Orkanger and onwards to Europe by ship. In 1867, Wilhelm Thams built a sawmill at Thamshavn, and the place took the surname of his family. His grandson Christian Thams, together with Christian Salvesen, bought the mines at Løkken Verk in 1904 and constructed a railway, Thamshavnbanen, from the mine and down the  to the port at Thamshavn. In 1931 Orkla Metall was opened, officially owned by the subsidiary Chr. Salvesen & Chr. Thams's Communications Aktieselskab that also owned the railway and the hydro electric power plant.

The original function of the plant was to smelt the pyrites from the mine into sulphur and copper matte. This lasted until 1962 when the plant closed. But in 1964 it reopened with a new furnace for ferrosilicon production, with a second furnace opening in 1981. The company was acquired by Elkem in 1986, that was bought by the original owner, Orkla Group, in 2005.

Zhuodaoquan Temple (), historically Yuquan Temple (), is a Buddhist temple and Martial temple located on the southwest hillside of Mount Fuhu (), in Zhuodaoquan Subdistrict (), Hongshan of Wuhan, Hubei, China.

History
According to a story passed down at the temple and recorded in part in the  (Huányǔ Tōngzhì) written in 1455 and the late Qing  (Jiāngxià Xiànzhì), in the year AD 208, as Guan Yu passed through the area, his troops and their horses were thirsty. In a fit of anger, Guan Yu thrust his sword into a rock (, zhuódāo). This opened up a spring which provided water for his troops and their horses to drink. Zhuodaoquan Temple takes its name from this story. Their horses were kept at nearby Mount Mafang (, "Horse Stable Mountain") on the present-day campus of the Wuhan University of Technology.

The temple was built during the Song Dynasty. It was originally named Yuquan Temple (). It was destroyed and rebuilt many times over the course of the Ming Dynasty. It was rebuilt again during the reign of the Kangxi Emperor.

During the Taiping Rebellion in the 1850s, Zhuodaoquan Temple was destroyed. It was rebuilt in 1858 after the recapturing of Wuchang by Qing forces. In 1876, 1,000 trees were planted around the temple.

In 1916, the temple was renovated in the style of Siheyuan and included statues of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei.

The temple was used as a headquarters for military operations during the Northern Expedition.

In 1956, the temple was repaired by the Wuhan City government. In 1959, the temple was recognized as an important cultural heritage site.

The temple and statues were damaged during the Cultural Revolution. The temple was reopened in 1988.

In 2010, Hongshan District refurbished and restored the temple increasing the overall area of the temple. The well connecting to the Zhuodao Spring was restored.
