South Island Landless Natives Act 1906

The South Island Landless Natives Act 1906 (SILNA) was an Act of Parliament passed in New Zealand. Following the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi in 1840, significant tracts of Māori land were purchased by the Crown. By 1860 the whole of the South Island had been acquired by the Crown. However, while Ngāi Tahu signed land sale contracts with the Crown for some 34.5 million acres between 1844 and 1864, this amounts to approximately 80 per cent of the land mass of the South Island. The Crown promised set aside 10 per cent of the land purchased for the occupation of the original owners. However, the Crown failed to honour this promise and left South Island Māori insufficient land to support themselves.In 1879, the Smith-Nairn Royal Commission of Inquiry was established to investigate grievances associated with a number of the Crown's purchases of land from Ngāi Tahu. However, the funding for the commission was halted before the final report could be produced. In 1886, another Royal Commission was undertaken, led by Judge Alexander Mackay. The report found that Ngāi Tahu people needed enough land to generate an income and support themselves and recommended over 200,000 acres in compensation.Following the passing of the South Island Landless Natives Act 1906, 4064 ‘landless natives’ were allocated 57,000 ha of forested land in the South Island of New Zealand. This amounted to less that 15 hectares per person. The lands allocated were bush and forest lands in remote areas that had not been traditional ancestral domains of South Island.

Neorickettsia risticii

Neorickettsia risticii, formerly Ehrlichia risticii, is an obligate intracellular gram negative bacteria that typically lives as an endosymbiont to parasitic flatworms, specifically flukes. N. risticii is the known causative agent of equine neorickettsiosis (also known as Potomac horse fever (PHF)), which gets its name from its discovery near the Potomac River in Maryland and Virginia. N. risticii was first recovered from horses in this region in 1984 but was not recognized as the causative agent of PHF until 1979. Potomac horse fever is currently endemic in the United States but has also been reported with lower frequency in other regions, including Canada, Brazil, Uruguay, and Europe. PHF is a condition that is clinically important for horses since it can cause serious signs such as fever, diarrhea, colic, and laminitis. PHF has a fatality rate of approximately 30%, making this condition one of the concerns for horse owners in endemic regions N. risticii is typically acquired in the middle to late summer near freshwater streams or rivers, as well as on irrigated pastures. This is a seasonal infection because it relies on the ingestion of an arthropod vector, which are more commonly found on pasture in the summer months. Although N. risticii is a well known causative agent for PHF in horses, it may act as a potential pathogen in cats and dogs as well. Not only has N. risticii been successfully cultured from monocytes of dogs and cats, but cats have become clinically ill after experimental infection with the bacteria. In addition, N. risticii has been.

Volozhin yeshiva

Yeshivas Etz Ḥayyim (Hebrew: ישיבת עץ חיים), commonly called the Volozhin Yeshiva (Yiddish: וואלאזשינער ישיבה, romanized: Volozhiner Yeshiva), was a prestigious Lithuanian yeshiva located in the town of Volozhin, Russian Empire, (now Valozhyn, Belarus). It was founded by Rabbi Ḥayyim Volozhiner, a student of the famed Vilna Gaon, and trained several generations of scholars, rabbis, and leaders. Completed in 1806, it is considered the first modern yeshiva, and served as a model for later Misnagedic educational institutions.The institution reached its zenith under the leadership of Rabbi Naftali Zvi Yehuda Berlin, who became rosh yeshiva in 1854. In 1892, demands of the Russian authorities to increase secular studies forced the yeshiva to close. It re-opened on a smaller scale in 1899 and functioned until the outbreak of World War II in 1939. During the War German soldiers used the building as a stable, and it was subsequently converted into a canteen and deli. The site was returned to the Jewish community of Belarus in 1989. It is considered a cultural and architectural landmark, and in 1998, the Volozhin Yeshiva was registered on the State List of Historical and Cultural Monuments of the Republic of Belarus.

CARD9

Caspase recruitment domain-containing protein 9 is an adaptor protein of the CARD-CC protein family, which in humans is encoded by the CARD9 gene. It mediates signals from pattern recognition receptors to activate pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines, regulating inflammation and cell apoptosis. Homozygous mutations in CARD9 are associated with defective innate immunity against yeasts, like Candida and dermatophytes.

shunting-yard algorithm

In computer science, the shunting yard algorithm is a method for parsing arithmetical or logical expressions, or a combination of both, specified in infix notation. It can produce either a postfix notation string, also known as Reverse Polish notation (RPN), or an abstract syntax tree (AST). The algorithm was invented by Edsger Dijkstra and named the "shunting yard" algorithm because its operation resembles that of a railroad shunting yard. Dijkstra first described the shunting yard algorithm in the Mathematisch Centrum report MR 34/61. Like the evaluation of RPN, the shunting yard algorithm is stack-based. Infix expressions are the form of mathematical notation most people are used to, for instance "3 + 4" or "3 + 4 × (2 − 1)". For the conversion there are two text variables (strings), the input and the output. There is also a stack that holds operators not yet added to the output queue. To convert, the program reads each symbol in order and does something based on that symbol. The result for the above examples would be (in Reverse Polish notation) "3 4 +" and "3 4 2 1 − × +", respectively. The shunting yard algorithm will correctly parse all valid infix expressions, but does not reject all invalid expressions. For example, "1 2 +" is not a valid infix expression, but would be parsed as "1 + 2". The algorithm can however reject expressions with mismatched parentheses. The shunting yard algorithm was later generalized into operator-precedence parsing.
