First in World War 1 with Woodrow Wilson, then in World War 2 with Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman, and lastly in the Cold War, with Harry Truman again. He lived until the presidency of Lyndon Johnson.

Family
------

Baruch's father was Simon Baruch, a Confederate soldier in the American Civil war, a physician, and then a Ku Klux Klan member. He had three brothers, and he was the second brother. They were Herman B. Baruch, Sailing Wolfe Baruch, and Hartwig Nathaniel Baruch. On 1897, when Baruch 27 years old, he married Annie Griffin needs link,an Episcopalian. Their children included Belle Baruch W. Bernard Baruch Jr. and Renée Baruch. (In order of birth). When the couple's first daughter, Belle, or Isabel Baruch was born, Baruch was so happy he wrote a poem about her. It went like this: 

*Oh Isabel, Oh Isabel,*

*The day you were first visible,*

*Paternal pride and future hope*

*We centered all in thee.*

*Oh Isabel, Oh Isabel*

*We’re one and indivisible.*

*We constitute a family now,*

*Where there was two, there’s three*

*(Baroness of Hobcaw, 4-5)*.

The two parents, Baruch and Griffin, had two different religious beliefs; Judaism and Episcopalianism. After an argument, both agreed that their two daughters would be raised Episcopalian and the boy whatever he chooses to believe.

Early Life and Education
------------------------

Bernard Baruch was the one of 4 sons of Simon Baruch (father) and Isabelle (mother). Baruch's father was a confederate physician and surgeon in the American Civil War. After the war, Simon Baruch and his family traveled to New York City, where Bernard Baruch, his son, would be raised and live for most of his life. Baruch then studied at the College of the City of New York. One day, in a sports accident while he was playing baseball, he damaged his ear, and soon graduated. He worked in numerous jobs until he finally had enought money to become a member of the New York Stock Exchange. By 1900, Baruch was a millonaire, at age 30.

Career
------

On 1914, Baruch supported Woodrow Wilson financially during his presidential campaign financially. The two men became close as World War 1 raged on. In 1919, Baruch helped Wilson out in the Paris Peace Conference. For a long time afterwards, Bernard Baruch grew his wealth and supported many Democrats, such as Senator Joseph Robinson. But when Franklin D. Roosevelt became the president of the United States, Baruch greatly opposed him, although Roosevelt was a Democrat. But he couldn't ignore the Great Depression. Baruch did all he can to support, recover, and later rebuild the nation. Then another world war, World War 2 was fought. Baruch supported his home nation, and then supported many presidents in the Cold War. He even coined the word, 'Cold War'. 

After all his long years of being wealthy, supporting presidents and building a family, Bernard Baruch died on 1965, aged 94. In fact, he never associated or worked with any financial house, so was nicknamed, 'The Lone Wolf of Wall Street'.

**Riich** (Chinese: 瑞麒; pinyin: *Ruìqí*) is an elite division of the Chinese company Chery, which existed from March 2009 to April 2013.

History
-------

### Background

Chery QQ
Since Chery was founded, most of Chery's higher-selling models (such as QQ, Qiyun, etc.) are cheap cars in the low-end market, The sales of models over RMB 100,000 such as Dongfangzhi and other models have been sluggish, causing consumers to have an impression of Chery as "low-end" and "cheap". In order to get rid of the market's "low-end" image of Chery and enter the mid-to-high-end automobile market, Chery Automobile Chairman Yin Tongyue proposed a multi-brand strategy and decided to create multiple sub-brands with different market positionings. in order to enhance the brand image and market share, and implement the strategy of "having more children, more fights". Therefore, on March 19, 2009, Chery released its three new brands "Karry", "Rely" and "Riich" at the third assembly plant in Wuhu, Anhui Province. Among them, "Riich" is positioned as the most advanced among the three, taking the luxury car route. is Chery’s first attempt at luxury cars. The brand’s first model, the G6, also rolled off the assembly line on the same day.

### Sales are sluggish

Although Riich is a high-end brand, its products ranging from the G6 priced at more than 200,000 yuan to the M1 with a price of only 40,000 yuan also carry the same "Riich" logo, which drags down the positioning of more expensive models such as the G5 and G6. Nobody cares, sales were affected. In addition, Riich has low visibility in the automobile market and is considered to be on the verge of "disappearing". The only Riich dealer in Guangzhou City also suffered from sluggish sales. Even if the price reduction of the model was as high as 20,000 yuan, it still did not help the sales. The dealer was losing at least 300,000 yuan every month, which caused the dealers all over the country to lose money. Riich dealers continue to withdraw from the network. In Guangdong Province alone, only Zhuhai still has Riich dealers.

### Brand deactivation

Due to poor sales, in order to reduce operating costs, Chery intends to return its models to the same Chery brand and discontinue the Rely and Riich brands.

Model range

The company's first car was the Riich G6, developed by Chery. Затем в ноябре 2009 года компания представила микролитражный кроссовер Riich X1, and in December 2009 - the Riich G5 sedan. At the time of closure, the company produced the following models:

* Riich G3
* Riich G5
* Riich G6
* Riich M1

The **Strepsirrhini** clade is one of the two suborders of primates, with 114 species. They are defined by their wet noses, although the Greek name means having a curved or bent nose. Madagascar's only primates (apart from humans) are strepsirrhines, although others can be found in southeast Asia.
Their eyes have a reflective layer to improve their night vision called a tapetum lucidum, and their eye sockets have a ring of bone around the eye called a post-orbital bar. Strepsirrhine primates produce their own vitamin C, whereas haplorhine primates (including humans) must get it from their diets.

The suborder contains the lemurs and lorises. The modern types probably evolved from the Adapiforms, an extinct group.

The origin of the earliest primates, from which both the strepsirrhines and haplorhines (simians and tarsiers) evolved, is a mystery. Both their place of origin and the group from which they evolved are uncertain.

Although the fossil record of their initial radiation across the Northern Hemisphere is very detailed, the fossil record from the tropics—where primates most likely evolved—is very poor, particularly around the time that primates and other eutherian mammals were first appearing.

So, geneticists and primatologists have used genetic analyses to determine the relatedness between primate lines and when they diverged. Using this molecular clock, it seems that primates evolved more than 80–90 million years ago, nearly 40 million years before the first primates appear in the fossil record.p22

"**On Viking Expeditions of Highborn Maids**: Two female warriors, of royal family according to the crowns on their heads, are participating in a sea battle." From Olaus Magnus' A Description of the Northern Peoples from 1555. One of the women shown is probably Alfhild.
Alfhild sketched in an old book.
**Alfhild** was a daughter of the Geatish king Synardus that lived in modern Sweden. Historians do not know if she was a real person or a legend. If she did live, it was probably between the 5th and 12th centuries. The earliest piece of writing that talks about her is the Gesta Danorum.

When Alfhild was a young princess, the room she slept in was guarded by a lizard and a snake. These reptiles scared away suitors who were not brave. A Danish prince named **Alf**, who was also Geatish, came to Geatland and fought the animal guards and won. But Alfhild's mother told her to run away from Alf dressed as a man. She did, and she became a woman fighter called a shield maiden.

She found a group of pirate ships that had lost their captain. She became the captain and made the other women part of the sailing crew. The crew doubled in number.

She was so good at piracy that she hurt a large part of the Danish and Finnish shipping economy. She also sailed to Iceland once. Prince Alf then went to stop the fleet. At that time, he did not know that Alfhild was pirate leader. He found them off the coast of Finland. 

In the original story, Alfhild killed Alf, the latter underestimating the fleet's power, and then put his head on a spear and continued pirating. People know this from Norse hearsay in dining halls. 

In Christian story, she knocked off his helmet. This made her recognize him, and she stopped pirating and married Alf. She then became queen of Denmark. This version is probably wrong: It agreed with the things Christianity and patriarchy saw as good.

In popular culture
------------------

There are some differences in the story in later popular culture. Here Alfhild is almost always called Awilda. (Other spellings: *Alwilda, Alvilda, Alvild, Alvilde, Alfhilda, Avilda, Alvida, Altilda, Ælfhild*).

During the 1800s, Alfhild/Awilda was a popular subject for scrimshaw carved by sailors on whaling ships.

The story about Alf And Alfhild has also been made into Italian operas.

***The Blind Owl*** (1936; Persian: بوف کور, *Boof-e koor*, audio speaker iconlisten (help·info)) is a novel written by the Iranian author Sadegh Hedayat, first published in 1936. It is considered a significant work in modern Persian literature, exploring themes of despair, existentialism, and the complex interplay between reality and illusion.

Overview
--------

The novel presents a surreal and psychological narrative, following the experiences of an unnamed protagonist who recounts his story in a non-linear and dreamlike manner. Through its dark and haunting atmosphere, "The Blind Owl" delves into the depths of the human psyche, leaving a lasting impact on Persian literature.

Simplified Plot
---------------

The story is about a painter who doesn't have a name and feels really sad after losing a lover. He talks to a shadow on his wall that looks like an owl and shares his dark thoughts. In his weird dreams, he believes that death destroys everything imaginary. The narrator thinks we come from death and it frees us from the fake attractions of life. The novel has two parts. The first part is like a strange dream with the narrator on opium, his complicated feelings for a woman, and a strange old man. The second part tells the same story more realistically, with some details that don't match the first part.

### Key themes

* Existentialism: Hedayat's work delves into existential themes, reflecting on the meaning and purpose of life. The protagonist's journey becomes a lens through which readers can contemplate the complexities of existence.
* Despair: The novel is permeated with a sense of despair, mirroring the inner struggles of the protagonist. Hedayat skillfully conveys a profound sense of hopelessness that resonates throughout the narrative.
* Reality vs. Illusion: One of the central themes is the blurred line between reality and illusion. The disjointed storytelling and dreamlike sequences contribute to a narrative that challenges the reader's perception of what is real.

Style and impact
----------------

"The Blind Owl" is known for its unique narrative style, characterized by fragmented storytelling and symbolic richness. Hedayat's prose creates a somber (dark) and 
introspective atmosphere, drawing readers into the labyrinth of the protagonist's mind.

### Influence

The novel has had a lasting impact on Persian literature and has been translated into various languages, allowing a broader audience to engage with its profound themes. "The Blind Owl" remains a classic, with its exploration of the human psyche and existential concerns continuing to captivate readers worldwide.

Conclusion
----------

"The Blind Owl" stands as a cornerstone of modern Persian literature, offering a thought-provoking exploration of despair, existentialism, and the intricate relationship between reality and illusion. Hedayat's unique narrative style and rich symbolism contribute to the enduring significance of this literary masterpiece.

Not to be confused with Ellipsis.
An ellipse obtained as the intersection of a cone with a plane.
An **ellipse**  is a shape that looks like an oval or a flattened circle. 

In geometry, an **ellipse** is a plane curve which results from the intersection of a cone by a plane in a way that produces a closed curve. 

Circles are special cases of ellipses, created when the cutting plane is perpendicular to the cone's axis.

An ellipse and its properties.
The foci (purple crosses) are at intersects of the major axis (red) and a circle (cyan) of radius equal to the semi-major axis (blue), centred on an end of the minor axis (grey)
A circle has one center, called a focus. An ellipse has two foci. 

An ellipse is simply all points on a graph that the sum of the distances from 2 points are the same. For example, an ellipse can be made by putting two pins into cardboard and a circle of string around those two, then putting a pencil in the loop and pulling as far as possible without breaking the string in all directions. The orbits of the planets are ellipses, with the sun at one focus. 

In analytic geometry the equation of an ellipse is

{\displaystyle {\frac {(x-h)^{2}}{a^{2}}}+{\frac {(y-k)^{2}}{b^{2}}}=1}   
where the center of the ellipse is (h,k). 2A is the length from each end of the longer skinnier side. 2b is the length of the 2 ends of the short side. A²-B²=C² for c is the length between the foci and the center.

  

An ellipse can also be expressed as 

  

{\displaystyle {\frac {(x-h)^{2}}{b^{2}}}+{\frac {(y-k)^{2}}{a^{2}}}=1}

  

In this case, it will be taller than it is wide.

Outfit worn by someone who wasn't a leader, studying for a Master of Arts degree in Cambridge in 1815.
The title **Master of Arts (MA)** holds a unique significance in the academic traditions of prestigious universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, and Dublin. This designation, however, differs from the conventional understanding of a postgraduate degree in many other educational institutions.

Background
----------

The origins of the Master of Arts title in these renowned universities trace back to 
medieval times. In the early days, scholars who completed their Bachelor of Arts degree were automatically granted the title of "Master" as a mark of scholarly achievement and competence. Over time, this tradition evolved, and the title became a symbol of academic distinction.

In Oxford, Cambridge, and Dublin, the Master of Arts is not typically earned through further coursework or examinations, as is common in other universities. Instead, it is often considered as a status or a recognition of the individual's standing within the academic community.

Procedure
---------

Upon completing a Bachelor of Arts, graduates from Oxford, Cambridge, or Dublin are eligible to apply for the conferment of the MA degree. The process is generally straightforward, and there are no additional academic requirements. The conferral (Granting) is based on the assumption that the graduate has continued to engage in scholarly activities or has contributed significantly to their field of study since completing their bachelor's degree.

Significance
------------

While the Master of Arts from Oxford, Cambridge, and Dublin may not represent postgraduate studies in the traditional sense, it carries historical and cultural importance. It signifies a level of intellectual accomplishment and is often seen as an acknowledgment of one's commitment to the pursuit of knowledge.

Usage
-----

Interestingly, the use of the MA title is not universal across these institutions. For instance, at Cambridge, the MA is conferred automatically, and graduates are entitled to use the title without any formalities. In contrast, at Oxford and Dublin, individuals need to apply for the MA, and there may be associated fees.

In conclusion, the Master of Arts from Oxford, Cambridge, and Dublin represents a distinctive aspect of academic tradition, reflecting centuries-old practices. It is a title that goes beyond the conventional structure of postgraduate degrees, embodying a historical connection to the roots of higher education.
