# La Rábida Friary
The **Saint Mary of La Rábida Friary** (in full, *Monasterio de Santa María de la Rábida*) is a Franciscan friary in the southern Spanish town of Palos de la Frontera, in the province of Huelva and the autonomous region of Andalucia. The friary is located 13 km south of the city of Huelva, where the Tinto and Odiel rivers meet.
The Friary of La Rábida has been Franciscan property since the thirteenth century. It was founded in 1261; the evidence is a papal bull issued by Pope Benedict XIII in that year, allowing Friar Juan Rodríguez and his companions to establish a community on the coast of Andalucia. The first Christian building on the site was constructed over a pre-existing ribat that lends its name (*rábida* or *rápita*, meaning \"watchtower\" in Arabic) to the present monastery. The Franciscans have held great influence in the region ever since.
The buildings standing on the site today were erected in stages in the late fourteenth century and the early fifteenth century. The friary, and the church associated with it, display elements of Gothic and Moorish revival architecture; their walls are decorated with frescos by the twentieth-century Spanish artist, Daniel Vázquez Diaz (1882-1969). There is also a cloister and a museum, where numerous relics of the discovery of the Americas are displayed.
The buildings on the site have nearly 20000 sqft of floor space and an irregular floor plan. Throughout its five hundred years of existence, the monastery has been refurbished and repaired countless times, but the most extensive modifications were undertaken as a result of damage from the Lisbon earthquake of 1755.
Christopher Columbus stayed at the friary two years before his famous first voyage, after learning that King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella had rejected his request for outfitting an expedition in search of the Indies. With the intervention of the guardian of La Rábida and the confessor to Isabella, Francisco Jiménez de Cisneros, he was able to have his proposal heard.
The friary was declared a Spanish National Monument in 1856. In 2016 it was added to the Tentative List of World Heritage by UNESCO along with the Columbian Places.

# La Rábida Friary
## History
The friary sits on a rocky bluff that overlooks the confluence of the rivers Tinto and Odiel, known since ancient times as *Saturn\'s Rock*. On this spot, the Phoenicians built an altar dedicated to their god, Melqart, the patron of Tyre, also called the Baal (lord) of Tyre, a deity often identified with Hercules. Later, the Romans chose this same place to venerate the goddess, Proserpina.
The Arabs raised a ribat, a small monastery to train mounted monk-warriors like those of the Christian Orders. The ribat, *rábida* (or *rápita*) in Spanish is derived from the Arabic word meaning \"watchtower\", and the ruins of several other Moorish towers of this kind along the Costa de la Luz still exist. In this environment, Muslim ascetics sought to become perfected spiritually so that they would be better able to defend this isolated coastal frontier of the Moorish empire in Iberia. In the twelfth century, the site passed to the Knights Templar under the protection of Our Lady of Miracles. In the thirteenth century, it became a Franciscan friary. Tradition holds that St. Francis of Assisi himself visited here, in the company of twelve disciples, to found a small and humble community. As with the Moors and the Templars before them, the Franciscan friars established this location, from the beginning, as a stronghold, a place for resisting the depredations of pirates who continually roamed the coast. Pope Eugene IV granted indulgences to all who rendered aid to travelers seeking refuge at this site. Many of the buildings to house and support the Conventual Franciscans, more properly known as the Order of Friars Minor Conventual, were constructed during the first part of the fifteenth century. The noble of the region, Don Juan Alfonso de Guzman El Bueno, the 1st Duke of Medina Sidonia (1410-1468), as well as local commoners, all collaborated in the construction projects.
The friary is best known in history for the visit of Christopher Columbus in 1490 during which the mariner consulted with the Franciscans, such as Horacio Crassocius, about his plans for organizing a voyage of discovery. Columbus then decided to take Crassocius with him as a servant called Juan.
After the War of Spanish Independence and the Confiscation of Mendizábal, a land reform scheme that seized unproductive church properties, the friary fell into ruins until, in 1855, a restoration was begun at the initiative of Prince Antoine of Bourbon-Orleans, Duke of Montpensier and the provincial delegation in the Spanish Cortes. In 1882, King Alfonso XII visited the friary and lent his support to a second round of rehabilitation and improvement with the purpose of commemorating the quadricentennial of the discovery of the Americas in 1892. The king engaged the architect, Ricardo Velázquez Bosco, whose subsequent contributions evinced a profound respect for the atmosphere and spirit of the original building.

## Buildings
### Church
The date of the construction of the church cannot be established with certainty. One of the early architectural elements that is well preserved is the arch-like main doorway. Other features include frescos on the walls and a meticulously painted ceiling of Moorish influence. Also on the walls, there is an eighteenth-century painting of St. John of God and representations of the life of St. Francis of Assisi. Presiding over the main altar is a sculpture of a Christ which replaces an older statue destroyed during the Spanish Civil War. In the south wall there is a small chapel alcove dedicated to the patron of the friary, Our Lady of Miracles. There is a 14th-century alabaster carving of her in the church.
### Cloister
The Moorish revival-style cloister dates from the fifteenth century and remains in a good state of conservation. In the seventeenth century, it was expanded by the construction of a second storey complete with battlements for defense against pirate invasions. It is decorated with paintings of modern vintage, and some fragments of the original paintings survive. Today, on the second floor, there is a permanent exhibition of scale models of the three caravels of the first voyage of Columbus: the *Niña*, the *Pinta*, and the *Santa Maria*.
### The reception room {#the_reception_room}
The reception room is a well-lit rectangular room of ample proportions where, in the days of Columbus, the friars met with him and debated theories and speculations about navigation. The name "Columbus Conference Room\" is often used to refer to this chamber. In 1992, in celebration of the 500th anniversary of Christopher Columbus\'s voyage of discovery, there was a meeting of the Spanish council of ministers (cabinet), presided over by King Juan Carlos I, in this room.
### Other rooms {#other_rooms}
The refectory is a rectangular room with parallel rows of tables and a whitewashed pulpit or lectern for reading or lecturing or preaching.
The library holds documents and objects of historical interest, most notably the map of the world of Juan de la Cosa on which, for the first time, the coast of the Americas appears.
There is also an exhibition room where the flags of each of the countries of the Americas and a small sealed vessel containing soil from the New World are on display.
Around a small patio adorned with numerous plants and flowers are rooms decorated with colorful frescos executed by the Spanish painter, Daniel Vázquez Diaz, in 1930. The subject of these paintings is Columbus and his expedition. The paintings are pre-cubist in style, an approach Vázquez Diaz had recently adopted during a sojourn in Paris.
## The surroundings of the monastery {#the_surroundings_of_the_monastery}
In the garden stands the Monument to the Discoverers, a 55 m tall column erected to commemorate the four-hundredth anniversary of the first voyage of Columbus. It is made of brilliant white stone incised with numerous figures and scenes depicting the colonization of the Americas.
In front of the main entrance is an iron cross and the busts of the Franciscan friars, Juan Pérez and Antonio de Marchena, which both were made by the sculptor León Ortega.
Next to the entrance is a plaque made of azulejos with the following inscription: *\"The Rábida is the first manifestation of the Hispano-American movement. This place, where the vision of a New World was conceived, is sacred to the hearts of people everywhere. Any Spaniard or American who reflects deeply and elevates his thoughts must ask, \'Won\'t you help us in our intention to spread love and peace, the forces that radiate from this humble monastery?\' Christ, before whom Columbus, Friar Juan Perez, Friar Marchena, and the Pinzóns all prayed, opens his loving arms to men of all beliefs who harbor good will.\"*
## Our Lady of Miracles {#our_lady_of_miracles}
St. Mary, the mother of Jesus, is the patroness of the friary, and a small statue of her can be found in the friary church. Carved in alabaster, the statue is, stylistically, of the school of fourteenth-century Andalucian art.
According to a legend with scant historical basis, this image was brought back from one of his trips by a sailor from Palos de la Frontera and, because the Moors were still in Spain, it was hidden by submerging it off the Huelva coast. Later, fishermen hauled it up in their nets and restored it to the church of the monastery. One thing is certain: Columbus and some of his crew prayed before this image hours before setting sail for the New World.

# Enric Gensana
**Enric Gensana Merola** (3 June 1936 -- 28 September 2005) was a Spanish footballer. He was an important player for FC Barcelona at the end of the fifties and beginning of the sixties. A very physical player, he spent eight seasons at the club and only a meniscus injury, which he never recovered from, forced him to leave.
## Career
Born in Lleida, Catalonia, Gensana began to play football in the youth ranks of UE Lleida, the team with which he made his debut in the Second Division and where he played along Gonzalvo III, Basora and Moreno, who gave very good reports of him to Barça\'s technical staff. He signed for Barça in 1956 and in the same year the team won the Cup and he made his debut with the national team. His debut with UE Lleida was on 3 April 1955 at the age of 19 in a Second Division game between UE Lleida and España Industrial (1--4).
Gensana\'s main personal achievement was that being elected the best player of the Little World Cup held in Caracas, ahead of his teammate Segarra and of players like Garrincha or Didí. His successful career was truncated by the above-mentioned meniscus injury, which caused his transfer to Osasuna in 1964 and one year later to Condal, where he retired in 1967. Capped 10 times, Gensana made his debut with the national team in May 1957 against Scotland in Madrid and said goodbye in May 1961 also in the capital of Spain, against Wales.

# Otto Deiters
**Otto Friedrich Karl Deiters** (`{{IPA|de|ˈdaɪtɐs|lang}}`{=mediawiki}; 15 November 1834 -- 5 December 1863) was a German neuroanatomist. He was born in Bonn, studied at the University of Bonn, and spent most of his professional career in Bonn. He is remembered for his microscopic research of the brain and spinal cord.
His name is lent to the \"nucleus of Deiters\", also called the lateral vestibular nucleus, and to \"Deiters\' cells\", structures that are associated with outer hair cells in the cochlea of the inner ear.
Deiters died in 1863 from typhoid fever at the age of 29. Before he died, Deiters provided the most comprehensive description of a nerve cell that was known to exist at the time. He identified the cells\' axon, which he called an \"axis cylinder\", and its dendrites, which he referred to as protoplasmic processes. He postulated that dendrites must fuse to form a continuous network. After his death, in 1865, his work pertaining to nerve cells of the spinal cord was edited and published by anatomist Max Schultze (1825-1874)

# Ministry of Integration and Gender Equality (Sweden)
The **Ministry of Integration and Gender Equality** (*Integrations- och jämställdhetsdepartementet*) was a ministry of the Government Offices of Sweden. Its areas of responsibility included consumer affairs, democracy issues, gender equality, human rights, integration issues, metropolitan affairs, minority issues, non-governmental organizations and youth policy. The only minister to head the ministry was Nyamko Sabuni who served as Minister for Gender Equality and as Minister for Integration. She was careful to publicly point out that she is an equalist and not a feminist, not having any group based on gender, race, age, religion or other typical discrimination ground as focus and angle above others in her equality work. In Swedish the role (Jämställdhetsminister) is more exactly translated into called Equality Minister.
The ministry offices were located at Fredsgatan 8 in central Stockholm.
The ministry was dissolved following the 2010 general election with gender equality moving to the Ministry of Education and Research and integration moving to the Ministry of Employment.
## History
The ministry was created on January 1, 2007, after a decision by the new government that took office on October 6, 2006. Previously these its areas of responsibilities were handled by the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry for Foreign Affairs respectively

# McClellan Ranch Preserve
**McClellan Ranch Preserve** is a public preserve located in the Monta Vista neighborhood of Cupertino that still retains its rural ranch look. It used to be a horse ranch owed by the McClellan family in the 1930s, and still preserves the original ranch house, a working milk barn and livestock barn, and a replica blacksmiths shop, along with a natural reserve in the middle of the park. A famous birding hot spot, the ranch park also houses the headquarters of the Santa Clara Valley Audubon Society and a nature museum and environmental education center.
The preserve received its current name in 2012, when the City of Cupertino renamed what was then McClellan Ranch Park, in order to respect the land\'s original designation as a preserve.
The McClellan Ranch maintains a sedate and scenic trail along the meandering Stevens Creek, which flows from the park to Blackberry Farm. The Master Gardeners program of the Santa Clara County also conducts vegetable trials on the Community Farm situated on the ranch

# Corneal ulcer
**Corneal ulcer**, often resulting from keratitis is an inflammatory or, more seriously, infective condition of the cornea involving disruption of its epithelial layer with involvement of the corneal stroma. It is a common condition in humans particularly in the tropics and in farming. In developing countries, children afflicted by vitamin A deficiency are at high risk for corneal ulcer and may become blind in both eyes persisting throughout life. In ophthalmology, a corneal ulcer usually refers to having an infection, while the term corneal abrasion refers more to a scratch injury.
## Types
### Superficial and deep corneal ulcers {#superficial_and_deep_corneal_ulcers}
Corneal ulcers are a common human eye disease. They are caused by trauma, particularly with vegetable matter, as well as chemical injury, contact lenses and infections. Other eye conditions can cause corneal ulcers, such as entropion, distichiasis, corneal dystrophy, and keratoconjunctivitis sicca (dry eye).
Many micro-organisms cause infective corneal ulcer. Among them are bacteria (including *Chlamydia trachomatis)*, fungi, viruses, and protozoa:
- Bacterial keratitis is caused by *Staphylococcus aureus*, *Streptococcus viridans*, *Escherichia coli*, *Enterococci*, *Pseudomonas*, *Nocardia*, *N. gonorrhoea* and *Chlamydia trachomatis* as well as many other bacteria.
- Fungal keratitis causes deep and severe corneal ulcer. It is caused by *Aspergillus* sp., *Fusarium* sp., *Candida* sp., as also *Rhizopus*, *Mucor*, and other fungi. The typical feature of fungal keratitis is slow onset and gradual progression, where signs are much more than the symptoms. Small satellite lesions around the ulcer are a common feature of fungal keratitis and hypopyon is usually seen.
- Viral keratitis causes corneal ulceration. It is caused most commonly by herpes simplex, herpes zoster and adenoviruses. It can also be caused by coronaviruses and many other viruses. Herpes virus cause a dendritic ulcer, which can recur and relapse over the lifetime of an individual.
- Protozoa infection like *Acanthamoeba* keratitis is characterized by severe pain and is associated with contact lens users swimming in pools.
Superficial ulcers involve a loss of part of the epithelium. Deep ulcers extend into or through the stroma and can result in severe scarring and corneal perforation. Descemetoceles occur when the ulcer extends through the stroma. This type of ulcer is especially dangerous and can rapidly result in corneal perforation, if not treated in time.
The location of the ulcer depends somewhat on the cause. Central ulcers are typically caused by trauma, dry eye, or exposure from facial nerve paralysis or exophthalmos. Entropion, severe dry eye and trichiasis (inturning of eyelashes) may cause ulceration of the peripheral cornea. Immune-mediated eye disease can cause ulcers at the border of the cornea and sclera. These include Rheumatoid arthritis, rosacea, systemic sclerosis which lead to a special type of corneal ulcer called Mooren\'s ulcer. It has a circumferential crater like depression of the cornea, just inside the limbus, usually with an overhanging edge.
## Refractory corneal ulcers {#refractory_corneal_ulcers}
Refractory corneal ulcers are superficial ulcers that heal poorly and tend to recur. They are also known as indolent ulcers or Boxer ulcers. They are believed to be caused by a defect in the basement membrane and a lack of hemidesmosomal attachments. They are recognized by undermined epithelium that surrounds the ulcer and easily peels back. Refractory corneal ulcers are most commonly seen in diabetics and often occur in the other eye later. They are similar to Cogan\'s cystic dystrophy.
### Melting ulcers {#melting_ulcers}
Melting ulcers are a type of corneal ulcer involving progressive loss of stroma in a dissolving fashion. This is most commonly seen in *Pseudomonas* infection, but it can be caused by other types of bacteria or fungi. These infectious agents produce proteases and collagenases which break down the corneal stroma. Complete loss of the stroma can occur within 24 hours. Treatment includes antibiotics and collagenase inhibitors such as acetylcysteine. Surgery in the form of corneal transplantation (penetrating keratoplasty) is usually necessary to save the eye.
## Signs and symptoms {#signs_and_symptoms}
Corneal ulcers are painful due to nerve exposure, and can cause tearing, squinting, and vision loss of the eye. There may also be signs of anterior uveitis, such as miosis (small pupil), aqueous flare (protein in the aqueous humour), and redness of the eye. An axon reflex may be responsible for uveitis formation---stimulation of pain receptors in the cornea results in release inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins, histamine, and acetylcholine.
Sensitivity to light (photophobia) is also a common symptom of corneal ulcer. Redness of the affected eye is common. Brow ache and head ache may be present. Drooping of eyelid may be present. Slit lamp examination shows loss of epithelium. The site of the ulcer is studied and marked in case sheet. The edge of the ulcer is studied. Whether satellite lesion is present or not is seen. Next, the cornea is stained with 1% fluorescein, with the ulcer staining green.

# Corneal ulcer
## Corneal healing {#corneal_healing}
An ulcer of the cornea heals by two methods: migration of surrounding epithelial cells followed by mitosis (dividing) of the cells, and introduction of blood vessels from the conjunctiva. Superficial small ulcers heal rapidly by the first method. However, larger or deeper ulcers often require the presence of blood vessels to supply inflammatory cells. White blood cells and fibroblasts produce granulation tissue and then scar tissue, effectively healing the cornea.
## Diagnosis
Diagnosis is done by direct observation under magnified view of slit lamp revealing the ulcer on the cornea. The use of fluorescein stain, which is taken up by exposed corneal stroma and appears green, helps in defining the margins of the corneal ulcer, and can reveal additional details of the surrounding epithelium. Herpes simplex ulcers show a typical dendritic pattern of staining. Rose-Bengal dye is also used for supra-vital staining purposes, but it may be very irritating to the eyes. In descemetoceles, the Descemet\'s membrane will bulge forward and after staining will appear as a dark circle with a green boundary, because it does not absorb the stain. Doing a corneal scraping and examining under the microscope with stains like Gram\'s and KOH preparation may reveal the bacteria and fungi respectively. Microbiological culture tests may be necessary to isolate the causative organisms for some cases. Other tests that may be necessary include a Schirmer\'s test for keratoconjunctivitis sicca and an analysis of facial nerve function for facial nerve paralysis.
## Treatment
Proper diagnosis is essential for optimal treatment. The cause of the ulcer is to be decided. Whether infective or non-infective. Bacterial corneal ulcer require intensive fortified antibiotic therapy to treat the infection. Fungal corneal ulcers require intensive application of topical anti-fungal agents. Viral corneal ulceration caused by herpes virus may respond to antivirals like topical acyclovir ointment instilled at least five times a day. Alongside, supportive therapy like pain medications are given, including topical cycloplegics like atropine or homatropine to dilate the pupil and thereby stop spasms of the ciliary muscle. Superficial ulcers may heal in less than a week. Deep ulcers and descemetoceles may require conjunctival grafts or conjunctival flaps, soft contact lenses, or corneal transplant. Proper nutrition, including protein intake and vitamin C are usually advised. In cases of keratomalacia, where the corneal ulceration is due to a deficiency of vitamin A, supplementation of the vitamin A by oral or intramuscular route is given. Drugs that are usually contraindicated in corneal ulcer are topical corticosteroids and anesthetics---these should not be used on any type of corneal ulcer because they prevent healing, may lead to superinfection with fungi and other bacteria and will often make the condition much worse.
### Refractory ulcers {#refractory_ulcers}
Topical antibiotics are used at hourly intervals to treat infectious corneal ulcers. Cycloplegic eye drops are applied to give rest to the eye. Pain medications are given as needed. Loose epithelium and ulcer base can be scraped off and sent for culture sensitivity studies to find out the pathogenic organism. This helps in choosing appropriate antibiotics. Complete healing takes anywhere from about a few weeks to several months.
Refractory corneal ulcers can take a long time to heal, sometimes months. In case of progressive or non-healing ulcers, surgical intervention by an ophthalmologist with corneal transplantation may be required to save the eye. In all corneal ulcers it is important to rule out predisposing factors like diabetes mellitus and immunodeficiency. Conjunctival flap may be drawn over the ulcer as an alternative

# Cuyamaca Peak
**Cuyamaca Peak** is a mountain peak of the Cuyamaca Mountains range in San Diego County, California.
## Geography
At 6512 ft, its summit is the second-highest point in San Diego County.
Cuyamaca Peak is located roughly 40 mi from the Pacific Ocean, within Cuyamaca Rancho State Park. It is east of the city of San Diego and southwest of Julian.
A popular 3.5 mi year-round hike to the summit of Cuyamaca leads from the Paso Picacho Campground, starting at about 5000 ft.
## Ecology
Snow in winter is common above 5000 ft and surrounding regions in Cuyamaca Rancho State Park. During summer, Bracken Ferns, a variety of wildflowers and native bunchgrasses dominate mountain meadows and the forest floor. Prior to the Cedar Fire, Black oaks once lit up the mountain.
### Cedar Fire {#cedar_fire}
In October 2003, the Cedar Fire burned the once-abundant White Fir (*Abies concolor*), Incense Cedar (*Calocedrus decurrens*), Jeffrey pine, Coulter pine, Sugar pine, and Black oak (*Quercus kelloggii*) that once lined the mountain.
Small seedlings of new White fir, Sugar Pine, Coulter Pine, Jeffrey Pine, and Incense Cedar were seen within a year of the Cedar Fire, and were thriving as saplings by 2007, an example of fire ecology.
### Precipitation
The significant elevation of Cuyamaca relative to its surrounding landscape catches Pacific moisture easily, forming clouds which are forced to release their moisture in order to pass east, resulting in average annual precipitation of 20-32 in. Fall and Winter storms account for 70%, with summer thunderstorms largely accounting for the balance. During the winter, snow may fall, and hoar frost is common upon the highest elevations.
## Views
On clear days, visibility from the summit of Cuyamaca Peak can range from 60 to in nearly every direction.
To the west, the Pacific Ocean, the Coronado Islands of Mexico, the coastline of San Diego County, Viejas Mountain, and El Cajon Mountain can be seen.
Looking north, one can see 6140 ft Palomar Mountain among the ridge of Palomar Mountains. On very clear days, the 8716 ft Toro Peak in the Santa Rosas and the San Jacintos are visible. Closer yet is Volcan Mountain slightly to the northeast, the former gold rush town of Julian lying in front. Directly north are the closest summits, Middle and North Peaks.
Directly east is the Anza Borrego Desert and the Laguna Mountains, including Whale Peak. Far beyond is the Salton Sea. To the south are Lyons Peak and Lawson Peak; further to the southeast are Mexican border mountains such as Table Top Mountain and the Sierra de Juárez.

# Bribri language
**Bribri**, also known as **Bri-bri**, **Bribriwak**, and **Bribri-wak**, is a Chibchan language, from a language family indigenous to the Isthmo-Colombian Area, which extends from eastern Honduras to northern Colombia and includes populations of those countries as well as Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. As of 2002, there were about 11,000 speakers left. An estimate by the National Census of Costa Rica in 2011 found that Bribri is currently spoken by 54.7% of the 12,785 Bribri people, about 7,000 individuals. It is a tonal language whose word order is subject--object--verb.
There are three traditional dialects of Bribri: Coroma (in the western region of the Talamanca mountain range), Amubre (in the eastern region of the Talamanca mountain range) and Salitre (in the South Pacific area). *Bribri* is a tribal name, deriving from a word for \'mountainous\' in their own language. The Bribri language is also referred to as *Su Uhtuk*, which means \'our language\'. Bribri is reportedly most similar to sister language Cabécar as both languages have nasal harmony, but they are mutually unintelligible.

# Hōzan-ji
right\|thumb\|260px\|Hall for Kangiten (Shoten)
**Hōzan-ji** (宝山寺 Hōzan-ji) is a Buddhist temple in Monzen-machi, Ikoma, Nara, Japan.
Though officially dedicated to the deity Acala (Fudō Myōō), the temple serves as a cult-center of the deity Kangiten (Shoten) and is also called \'Ikoma-Shōten\' (生駒聖天).
## History
The area around Hōzan-ji was originally a place for the training of Buddhist monks. The name of the place at that time was Daishō-Mudō-ji (大聖無動寺).
Mount Ikoma was originally an object of worship for the ancient people in the region, and so this area was selected as a place for religious training. The training area is said to have opened in 655 by En no Gyōja. Many Buddhist monks, including Kūkai (空海), are said to have trained in here.
Hozan-ji started when Tankai (湛海) re-opened this training area in the 17th century. Tankai set up a statue of Kangiten (Shoten) at this place in 1678, the official year Hozan-ji was established.
In the Edo period, this temple was one of the most popular Buddhist temples in this region.

For governance purposes it is divided between the city of Campbellton and the Restigouche rural district, both of which are members of the Restigouche Regional Service Commission.
Before the 2023 governance reform, the northern part of the parish was heavily divided, with (moving upriver from the eastern parish line) the city of Campbellton, the village of Atholville, the village of Tide Head and the local service district of Flatlands, which straddled the western parish line; the (LSD) of Glencoe was inland of Tide Head and Flatlands, along Route 17 and Route 275, with Atholville extending inland around the loop of Route 275; the remainder of the parish\'s mainland formed the LSD of the parish of Addington. The islands in the Restigouche River were divided between Flatlands and Tide Head, though the boundary the village claimed differed from those recognised by the Regional Service Commission\'s map of Flatlands. The 2023 reform amalgamated Addington and Tide Head with Campbellton, annexing Glencoe with two parts of the LSD of the parish of Addington on either side of Walker Road, allowing a smoother boundary, while the boundary between the river islands was settled; Flatlands and the remainder of the parish LSD became part of the rural district.
## Origin of name {#origin_of_name}
The parish was named in honour of Henry Unwin Addington, a diplomat who was appointed in 1826 as a plenipotentiary in the boundary negotiations with the United States. He was the nephew of Henry Addington, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom 1801--1804.
The other plenipotentiary in 1826 was William Huskisson, for whom Huskisson Parish in Kent County was named at the same time.

# Addington Parish, New Brunswick
## History
Addington was erected in 1827 in Gloucester County from Beresford Parish. The parish comprised the area north of the prolongation of the southern line of modern Beresford and between the Benjamin and Upsalquitch Rivers.
In 1840 Restigouche County was reorganised following its erection. Addington was reduced to its modern eastern boundary while having its western boundary changed to a line due south from the mouth of the Upsalquitch River.
In 1879 Eldon Parish was dissolved and the area added to Addington.
In 1896 Eldon was reërected with altered boundaries, giving Addington its modern boundaries.
## Boundaries
Addington Parish is bounded:
- on the north by the Quebec provincial boundary, running through the Restigouche River;
- on the east by a line running true south from the most eastern point of the western side of the mouth of Walkers Brook, which runs through Campbellton;
- on the south by the Northumberland County line;
- on the west by a line beginning on the county line about at a point about 2.4 kilometres east of Bald Mountain Brook, then running true north to the southeastern corner of a grant to Thomas Gracie, about 1 kilometre west of Route 17 and 2 kilometres south of Evergreen Road, then running northwesterly along the western edge of Glenlivet Settlement to its northwestern corner, then along the prolongation of the eastern line of a grant to John Justason and the Justason grant to strike the Restigouche River near the lower end of Bell Island;
- including all the river islands in front.

# Empire of Ivory
***Empire of Ivory*** is the fourth novel in the *Temeraire* alternate history/fantasy series by American author Naomi Novik. Set in Africa, the novel follows William Laurence and his dragon Temeraire\'s search for a cure to the disease that has paralyzed the dragon community. Novik visited southern Africa in search of places in the fourth novel.
*Empire of Ivory* was released in paperback in North America by Del Ray on September 25, 2007. The British hardcover edition was published by Voyager on November 5, 2007.
## Plot summary {#plot_summary}
Laurence and Temeraire arrive back in the United Kingdom, following their evacuation of Danzig in *Black Powder War*. Their relief at arriving safely is short-lived as Napoleon continues his preparations for an invasion of the British Isles. When questioned about the lack of British air support for the Prussians, Laurence discovers that Britain had no dragons to spare: a flu-like epidemic has infected the greater part of them, and British science has yet to devise a cure. To combat it, Temeraire, Iskierka and the ferals are forced to fly frantic patrols, both as a show of force and to prevent Napoleon from getting reconnaissance in over the contaminated coverts; at one point Temeraire is forced to knock a French courier-dragon, Sauvignon, out of the sky and down into one of the coverts, risking infection himself.
Temeraire and Laurence continue to develop their notions of draconic equality in British society; they find common cause with William Wilberforce and the abolitionist movement in exchange for assistance from prominent political leaders. Before they can continue their plans, they are enlisted to return to Africa to seek a cure for the draconic flu, which Temeraire caught and was cured of in *Throne of Jade*; his immunity is proven when he fails to contract the illness from Sauvignon and the other dragons. The entire formation is shipped to the Cape Colony aboard the *Allegiance*, along with a black missionary, Rev. Josiah Erasmus, formerly of the Lunda people, his wife Hannah and their daughters. The missionaries are manumitted slaves, causing tension between Laurence and *Allegiance* captain Tom Riley, a staunch supporter of the slave trade and occasional friend of Laurence. Riley is also further thrown off balance by the discovery that some of the Aerial Corps\' officers, including Lily\'s captain Catherine Harcourt, are women (the acid-spitting Longwing breed, along with a few others, refuse to accept male handlers).
After several weeks of searching, the formation makes land at the Cape of Good Hope; Maximus, the Regal Copper, is so weary that his handler Berkley does not believe he will ever return home. However, enough fungi are found to cure the formation, and with the help of two African boys, Demane and Sipho, and their small dog, they set out to find more. In the end, they discover the fungus in a cave, being fertilized by dragon dung: it has been deliberately cultivated. Scarcely has this realization set in that the Aerial Corps are beset by Tswana humans and dragons; the British beasts, who have been sent back to the Cape with their precious cargo, are unable to prevent their aircrews from being captured, and Rev. Erasmus\' attempts to intercede only lead to his death, as the Lunda are known slavers. The British contingent is taken captive and brought back to the Tswana capitol, a settlement at *Mosi-oa-Tunya* (what is today called Victoria Falls) for imprisonment and interrogation. This is particularly challenging to Harcourt, who had become intimate with Riley during the voyage and is now bearing his child.
Hannah Erasmus, taken from the Tswana some twenty years ago, is of particular importance during their captivity: not only is she able to provide some intercession for the British, but her word is given extra weight by Kefentse, her dragon ancestor who is overjoyed to have her back. The Tswana, in addition to being fiercely offended by the depredations of the African slave trade on their people, practice a form of ancestor worship in which dragons are brought up to believe they are the reincarnations of former (human) leaders. This makes their resistance to the slave trade even fiercer since dragons are deeply possessive of those humans they consider their own. Though Laurence is able to establish some small rapport with Prince Moshueshue and apologize for the mushroom theft, the ancestors Mokhachane and Kefentse remained unconvinced by the mere words of Laurence.
Temeraire, who has picked up some Xhosa from Demane and Sipho, is able to talk the location of *Mosi-oa-Tunya* out of some feral dragons, and he, Dulcia and Lily organize an escape for their crews. But before they have managed to return to the Cape, the Tswana are already on overrunning the Colony, and indeed all European ports on the African coast. Lily\'s formation retreats to Great Britain aboard the *Allegiance*; whilst at sea, Riley marries Catherine Harcourt, more at his insistence than hers. Upon returning to Britain, they discover that the latest abolitionist bill in Parliament was defeated by strong opposition from Admiral Horatio Nelson and that Sauvignon, now infected with the plague, has \"escaped\" back to France. Laurence and Temeraire are horrified to realize that Government and Admiralty alike have countenanced the wholesale slaughter of, not only every French dragon but quite probably every dragon in Eurasia. Acting on their consciences, they steal a tub of cultivated mushrooms and fly the English Channel to deliver the cure to the French. For this, they earn the personal respect of Napoleon Bonaparte. However, Laurence turns down the Emperor\'s offer of asylum, preferring to return to his beloved Commonwealth and answer for his treason.
### Notes
Naomi Novik went to Africa to do research for Empire of Ivory, including hiking and a safari in Botswana.
## Reception
Publishers Weekly gave a mixed review stating:
> Novik fills the conflict\'s lead-up with lengthy meditations on dragon civil rights and England\'s abolition movement, making for a fitful, pedantic first half. But most will find the richness of Novik\'s developing world---and characters---to be worthy compensation for the slow start

# James C. McLaughlin
**James Campbell McLaughlin** (January 26, 1858 -- November 29, 1932) was a politician from the U.S. state of Michigan.
## Early life {#early_life}
McLaughlin was born in Beardstown, Illinois. His parents, David and Isabella (Campbell) McLaughlin, had come from Edinburgh, Scotland, in 1851 and settled in Beardstown. The family moved to Muskegon, Michigan, in 1864, and David became a leading attorney in Muskegon. He served on the Muskegon School Board for 25 years and was the secretary for 19 years.
McLaughlin attended the public schools of Muskegon and graduated from high school in 1876. After a preparatory course, he entered the literary department of the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor in the fall of 1878, but did not graduate. He became an assistant to his father and later worked at a bank. In the summer of 1880, he worked as an office clerk and bookkeeper in a law office, and studied the law. He entered the law department of the University of Michigan in the fall of 1881 and graduated in 1883. In the same year, he was admitted to the bar, and joined his father\'s law firm in Muskegon.
After his father\'s death in 1891, he had his own practice until 1899, when he formed the firm, J.C. & J.A. McLaughlin, with a cousin as the junior partner. McLaughlin also succeeded to the abstract business of his father, under the name of Muskegon County Abstract Company. He was also a director of the Enterprize Foundry Company and a director and attorney for the Home Builders & Loan Association, both of Muskegon.
## Political career {#political_career}
He served as prosecuting attorney of Muskegon County, 1887--1901. In 1901 was appointed by the Governor of Michigan Aaron T. Bliss as a member of the board of State tax commissioners and State board of assessors, on which he served until 1906. He also served at various times as chairman of the county and city Republican Party committees.
In 1906, McLaughlin was elected as a Republican from Michigan\'s 9th congressional district to the 60th United States Congress. He was subsequently re-elected to the twelve succeeding Congresses, serving from March 4, 1907, until his death in 1932, just 21 days after losing the November 8 general election to Democrat Harry W. Musselwhite.
## Death
McLaughlin died in Marion, Virginia, while en route to Washington, D.C. He is interred in Evergreen Cemetery in Muskegon, Michigan. He was a member of the Masonic Fraternity, the Foresters, Maccabees, and Elks.

# Bomber Wells
**Bryan Douglas**\"**Bomber**\"**Wells** (27 July 1930 -- 19 June 2008) was an English cricketer.
Wells was born and raised in Gloucester, and educated at local school Linden Road Secondary. He was a right-handed tail-end batsman and off-break bowler who played in 302 first-class matches between 1951 and 1965, for Gloucestershire and Nottinghamshire. Wells took 998 wickets in first-class matches at an average of 24.26.
## Playing career {#playing_career}
Wells was known as \"Bomber\" after the former British heavyweight boxer \"Bombardier\" Billy Wells who struck the gong at the start of films made by the Rank studios.
Wells was unable to retain a place in his native County side through the emergence of David Allen who was a far superior batsman. Wells had taken 122 and 123 wickets in 1955 and 1956 respectively but had a moderate season in 1957 and was not able to displace Allen or John Mortimore thereafter. Joining Nottinghamshire, the weakest county team at that time, Wells claimed 120 wickets in his first season, bowling over 1200 overs. He retired after the 1965 season. A poor bat, Wells scored 25% of his runs in sixes. His career batting average was 7.47.
He was a participant in a famous scene in a county match, widely repeated for decades. As described by The Guardian in 2011:
> \...there\'s no chance of a recurrence of one of the game\'s greatest ever scenes, which starred, as so many do, Gloucestershire\'s incorrigible spinner Bryan \"Bomber\" Wells. A poor judge of a run, he once found himself batting with a runner and a partner who also had need of one. Playing a push into the offside, he called for a single, forgot he had a runner and set off himself, as did the two men at the other end. \"No\" followed \"Yes\" and all four found themselves at the same end. A fielder dislodged the bails at the other end and the umpire, Alec Skelding, professed himself to be as confused as the four batsmen. \"One of you buggers is out,\" he said. \"I don\'t know which. You decide and inform the bloody scorers!\"
Wells claimed to have bowled the fastest over in cricket, during the time it took for the bells of Worcester Cathedral to strike 12 o\'clock. The bells have since been timed at approximately 34 seconds.
A noted raconteur, he published a book of tales called *Well, Well Wells* in 1982. Included in the book are many of his after dinner stories. He describes how on his very first match for Gloucestershire he had to borrow kit in order to play and travelled to the game on the bus. He was known to dislike physical exercise and so developed a run-up of just one or two paces. It took some time for batsman to get used to this unusual style: \"I took five wickets in my first match. And I know at least two of them weren\'t looking,\" he told audiences.
Although he took 998 wickets in first-class cricket he declined the opportunity to play in the last game of his final first-class season in 1965. He thought he had 999 wickets. \"Lots of people have taken 1000 wickets, he told the Notts captain. Nobody has taken 999.\"
## Retirement
In 1998, Wells suffered a major stroke which required him to use a wheelchair full-time. He died on 19 June 2008

}}`{=mediawiki} **William Brill** (June 21, 1931 -- April 10, 2011) was an American sportswriter and author.
## About
Brill was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and attended [Christchurch School](https://www.christchurchschool.org) in Middlesex County, Virginia. Brill attended Duke University before began his sports writing career with the *Covington Virginian* in 1952. Brill joined *The Roanoke Times* in 1956 and was named sports editor in 1960, before retiring in 1991.
Brill had something of a \"love-hate\" relationship with his readers, who generally recognized him as a talented writer and reporter, but often felt he favored universities in North Carolina over Virginia and Virginia Tech, and *The Roanoke Times* promoted its college football prediction contest as an opportunity to \"beat Brill.\"
When Virginia Tech was invited to join the ACC in 2004, the retired Brill predicted that the Hokies would not win an ACC championship during his lifetime. However, they won twelve, with the Virginia Tech football team winning the ACC championship in their first season in the conference, prompting calls and letters to Brill from Virginia Tech fans asking when his funeral was being held.
Brill wrote a sports column for the Durham *Herald-Sun* from August 1992 through April 1994. He served as President of the Atlantic Coast Sportswriters and Sportscasters Association (ACSWA) from 1982 to 1984, named the Virginia Sportswriter of the Year in 1991, and President of the National Association of Sportscasters and Sportswriters from 1993 to 1995. Brill was the 1995 recipient of the Jake Wade Award for lifetime contributions to college athletics from College Sports Information Directors. Brill covered a total of 35 Final Fours, more than any other sports writer.
The USBWA president in 1980--81, Brill began his career with the Roanoke Times and World News in 1956 and served as the paper\'s executive sports editor and columnist through 1991. Following retirement, Brill settled in Durham, North Carolina, remaining a regular contributor to several publications until his death, at age 79, due to esophageal cancer, on Sunday, April 10, 2011. Duke men\'s basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski visited him at Duke Med the morning of April 10.
Brill was inducted into the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame in 1999

# Alabama waterdog
The **Alabama waterdog** (***Necturus alabamensis***) is a medium-sized perennibranch salamander inhabiting rivers and streams of Alabama. It is listed as endangered by the IUCN and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service.
## Description
The Alabama waterdog is medium-sized at 15 -, with four toes and a laterally compressed tail. Its gills are permanent, bushy, and red. Typical adults exhibit a brown or black dorsum with minimal or no spotting, and the ventral side is white and often not spotted.
## Distribution and habitat {#distribution_and_habitat}
The Alabama waterdog is found in the Appalachian headwaters of the Black Warrior River drainage basin in Alabama. Its range includes the Sipsey Fork and Brushy Creek in Winston County, the Mulberry Fork, Blackwater Creek, and Lost Creek in Walker County, the North River and Yellow Creek in Tuscaloosa County, and the Locust Fork and Blackburn Fork in Blount County. It is found in unsilted small and medium-sized streams in clay areas. It is more likely to be present when the larvae of the northern dusky salamander (*Desmognathus fuscus*) are present and less likely in streams where Asiatic mussels are abundant. The areas of dead leaves and detritus sometimes found in backwaters are important for this species.
## Diet
*N. alabamensis* typically consumes invertebrates such as crayfish, amphipods, and insect larvae, as well as vertebrates such as small fish.
## Taxonomy
The taxonomy of *N. alabamensis* is poorly understood. It is believed to be related to *N. maculosus* and *N. beyeri*. It is known to hybridize with *N. beyeri*, though electrophoretical evidence suggests they are separate species.
## Status
The survival of *N. alabamensis* is threatened by habitat fragmentation and pollution and the IUCN has listed it as \"Endangered\". The quality of the water has deteriorated due to industrial, mining, agricultural, and urban pollution, and various impoundments have been made inhibiting its free movement. Even within the best habitats in their range, they are uncommon and their abundance may fluctuate. On 2 January 2018, the Alabama waterdog gained federal protection under the Endangered Species Act of 1973. Along with its listing, 420 river miles of critical habitat gained protection from activities that could be injurious to the salamander. Parties wishing to undertake actions that may damage the salamander\'s critical habitat must now apply for a federal permit to do so

# Luena River (Zambia)
The **Luena River** of Zambia\'s Western Province rises just west of the Kafue National Park and flows west through Kaoma to become a tributary of the Zambezi. In the dry season, just below its confluence with its seasonal tributary the Luampa River, it ends in swamps or marshes on the **Luena Flats** east of Lukulu. In the wet season the Luena Flats flood and overflow into the Ndandu channel or floodplain which leads south-west to the Barotse Floodplain of Zambezi north of Limulunga and Mongu. It is the widest \'tributary\' floodplain of the Barotse Floodplain, reaching 20 km wide at its mouth.
In the dry season, vehicle tracks cross the Luena/Ndandu floodplain between north and south, allowing a direct route between Mongu and Lukulu and North-Western Province, Zambia. In the wet season the floodplain is impassable and vehicles have to travel west towards Kaoma, then north-west on the Kaoma-Lukulu road. At the height of the flood this road also becomes impassable across the floodplain, and there is no practical alternative

# Glenshee Ski Centre
**Glenshee Ski Centre** is an alpine snowsports area in the Scottish Highlands. It is located above the Cairnwell Pass at the head of Glen Shee on either side of the A93 road between Blairgowrie and Braemar. Glenshee is Britain\'s largest alpine snowsports area and is referred to as the \'Scottish Three Glens\'. in reference to Les Trois Vallées. The ski area covers 2000 acre.
22 lifts provide access to 25 mi of pistes. There are 3 chairlifts, 3 T-bar lifts and 16 button lifts, mostly Pomas. A 4-seat chairlift is planned to replace the Cairnwell T-bar.
The pistes are spread across four mountains. The western side of the ski area is a large bowl encompassing The Cairnwell 3061 ft and Càrn Aosda 3009 ft. The eastern side extends onto Meall Odhar 3025 ft and Glas Maol 3504 ft. There are 8 green pistes; 13 blue; 13 red and 2 black including the \'Tiger\', one of the steepest pistes in Scotland. The longest single run, Glas Maol, is 1.2 mi and is considered by some to be amongst the best pistes in Scotland.
Extensive snow-making often allows the slopes to remain open in poor weather longer than other ski areas in Scotland. The ski area is served by panoramic webcams

# Professional technologist
A **professional technologist (P.Tech)** is a class of certification of engineering technologist and professional technologist in Canada and Malaysia respectively.
The title of P.Tech is protected across Canada by copyright law, and specifically in certain jurisdictions by provincial law. The P.Tech designation came into place to align technologists with P.Engs (professional engineers). Technologists can perform the functions of a technician, but have a scope of practice more limited than an engineer or scientist.
The title is not used consistently across Canada. In some cases, the P.Tech designation is equivalent to a certified engineering technologist designation. However; in other cases, provincial legislation makes professional technologists into licensees under the local professional engineering organization, capable of practicing some professional engineering within a limited scope.
## Quebec
The Ordre des Technologues Professionnels du Quebec is Quebec\'s independent certifying body for engineering/applied science technicians and technologists.
The Ordre des Technologues Professionnels du Quebec confers the post-nominal designation of P.Tech, which is called \"professional technologist\" or \"technologue professionel\" to engineering technologists who meet the standard for certification. Quebec\'s professional technologist designation is equivalent to a certified engineering technologist designation.
Members are governed by the \"Code des professions du Québec\" and the \"Code de déontologie des technologues professionnels\", and perform according to accepted norms and standards in the industry.
## Newfoundland
The Association of Engineering Technicians and Technologists of Newfoundland and Labrador (AETTNL) is Newfoundland and Labrador\'s independent certifying body for engineering/applied science technicians and technologists.
AETTNL confers the post-nominal designation of P.Tech to engineering technologists who meet the standard for certification. This designation in Newfoundland is equivalent to a certified engineering technologist elsewhere in other provinces.
Unlike every other association or society of engineering technicians and technologists in Canada, except Island Technology Professionals, AETTNL operates as a corporation. Rather than having a specific act of parliament in effect to empower the association to regulate their certifications, they rely on the CCTT\'s ownership of copyrights to different certifications. They have used that flexibility to give their members a different title.

# Professional technologist
## Alberta
The Association of Science and Engineering Technology Professionals of Alberta (ASET) is Alberta\'s independent certifying body for engineering/applied science technicians and technologists.
ASET confers the post-nominal designation of C.E.T. to engineering technologists who meet the standard for certification. This represents the status as a certified engineering technologist who has met a standard agreed upon across Canada.
In addition to that designation, ASET and the Association of Professional Engineers and Geoscientists of Alberta together maintain a P.Tech.(Eng.) certification, which over and above the designation of C.E.T. provides a limited license to practice professional engineering within a limited scope.
Members who earn this designation have the right to independently practice engineering and/or geoscience within a specified scope of practice that is the routine application of industry recognized codes, standards, procedures and practices using established engineering or applied science principles and methods of problem solving as specified by the ASET/APEGA Joint Board of Examiners.
This professional technologist designation is written into the provincial act regarding professional engineering, the Engineering and Geoscience Professions Act of Alberta
Specifically, "professional technologist" means an individual who is issued a certificate of registration by the ASET Registrar in accordance with this Act to engage in the practice of engineering or geo-science within the scope of practice specified by the Joint Board of Examiners.
P.Tech.(Eng.) license allows the practitioner to work independently and stamp their own work indicating they take responsibility for the work they have done. The scope of practice for a P.Tech. will be narrower and more prescribed than the defined scope of practice for a P.L.(Eng.) {Professional Licensee}
## British Columbia {#british_columbia}
The Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of British Columbia (ASTTBC) is British Columbia\'s independent certifying body for engineering/applied science technicians and technologists.
ASTTBC confers the post-nominal designations of A.Sc.T. (applied science technologist) which are symbols of achievement in engineering/applied science technology and are legally protected for use only by fully certified members in good standing. This designation in Newfoundland is equivalent to a certified engineering technologist elsewhere in other provinces.
The association is mandated and empowered by the Applied Science Technologists and Technicians Act of British Columbia. However, they are looking to Alberta\'s \"One Act, two organizations\" model to better serve the public interest.
## Malaysia
Under the Technologists and Technicians Act 2015 \[Act 768\], the Malaysia Board of Technologists (MBOT) issues Professional Technologist status to registered Graduate Technologists after passing an assessment. A minimum of 3 years of working experience is required. The Professional Technologists are entitled to bear pre-nominal letters of \"Ts.\", and post-nominal letters of \"P.Tech.\" and their specializations

# Goofus glass
**Goofus glass** is an American term for pressed glass that was decorated with unfired enamel paint in the early 20th century by several prominent glass factories. It contrasts with enamelled glass, where the enamel is fired, making the paint far more durable. Because it was mass produced and relatively cheap, it was given as premiums with purchases and awarded as prizes at fairs. It was the first carnival glass, preceding the iridized product known today as carnival glass.
Articles produced included plates, bowls, vases, oil lamps, dresser sets, salt and pepper shakers and candle holders. Common colors were red, green and gold, the latter the most common.
Major producers included Indiana Glass Company, Dugan Diamond Company and H. Northwood. These companies produced pieces that consisted of lines of pressed glass known as intaglio and painted opalescent glass.
The term \"goofus\" now refers more to the technique of using unfired enamel paints on a piece of glass rather than to the glass itself. The term generally excludes milk glass and painted jewelry, items produced after the 1930s, and items produced outside the US

# Alan Johnston
**Alan Graham Johnston** (born 17 May 1962) is a British journalist working for the BBC. He has been the BBC\'s correspondent in Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, the Gaza Strip and Italy. He is based in London.
Johnston was kidnapped in the Gaza Strip on 12 March 2007 by the militant group Army of Islam. He was unconditionally released on 4 July, nearly four months later, after much pressure was put on the group by the now-dominant Hamas.
## Early life {#early_life}
Johnston was born in Lindi, Tanganyika (present-day Tanzania), to Scottish parents.
## Education
Johnston was educated at the Dollar Academy, an independent school in the small town of Dollar in Clackmannanshire in central Scotland, followed by the University of Dundee, where he graduated with an MA in English and politics. He also completed a diploma in Journalism Studies from Cardiff University.
## Career
Johnston joined the BBC in 1991, and has spent eight years as a correspondent for them, including in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, as well as Kabul, Afghanistan. He was in Kabul when Afghanistan was still under the control of the Taliban. He was due to be the BBC\'s full-time correspondent in Gaza until 1 April 2007, and at the time of his kidnapping was the only foreign reporter with a major Western media organisation to still be based in the city.
Johnston covered many major stories in Gaza for the BBC, including Israel\'s unilateral disengagement plan in 2005, Hamas winning the 2006 legislative elections, the 2006 Israel-Gaza conflict and the Palestinian factional violence of late 2006 to 2007.
Johnston is highly regarded by the BBC as a respected, experienced journalist, and due to his local knowledge, he was someone other journalists would turn to for information when in Gaza. Prior to being kidnapped however, Johnston was not a journalist well known to the general public. Following his release he announced his intention to return to obscurity though, as of January 2008, he took over the presentation of the BBC World Service version of the programme *From Our Own Correspondent*.
Johnston\'s BBC colleague Paul Adams noted that it was Johnston\'s \"job to bring us day after day reports of the Palestinian predicament in the Gaza Strip.\" Mustafa Barghouti, Palestinian Information Minister, has described Johnston as a \"friend of our people\", and said that Johnston \"has done a lot for our cause.\" Imprisoned Fatah leader Marwan Barghouti has also called Johnston a \"friend of the Palestinian people\".
When not working as a correspondent, Johnston produced radio reports, one of which, on life after the Taliban, won a Sony Radio Academy Award bronze. Johnston has also worked as programme editor of *The World Today* and as a general reporter in the BBC World Service newsroom.
From November 2011 to August 2014, Johnston was the BBC correspondent in Rome. From October 2014, Johnston has stated on his Twitter account (@AlanJohnstonBBC) that he is now based in London.
The day after he was released, Johnston was awarded a prize by Amnesty International for his radio reports on human rights in Gaza, praising him for his \"commitment to telling ordinary peoples\' stories.\"
## Kidnapping
On 12 March 2007, Johnston was kidnapped by the Army of Islam. His captivity led to many protests worldwide. Hamas put immense pressure on the Army of Islam, including (according to a senior Hamas militant) the threat to hunt them down and kill them if they did not release Johnston. On 4 July 2007, Johnston was freed. He was taken to meet Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh before leaving for Jerusalem with an entourage of British diplomats.
## Honours
On 19 June 2008, the University of Dundee conferred an honorary degree of Doctor of Laws upon Johnston

# Aerial crane
An **aerial crane** or **flying crane** is a helicopter used to lift heavy or awkward loads. As aerial cranes, helicopters carry loads connected to long cables or slings in order to place heavy equipment when other methods are not available or economically feasible, or when the job must be accomplished in remote or inaccessible areas, such as the tops of tall buildings or the top of a hill or mountain, far from the nearest road. Helicopters were first used as aerial cranes in the 1950s, but it was not until the 1960s that their popularity in construction and other industries began to catch on. The most consistent use of helicopters as aerial cranes is in the logging industry to lift large trees out of rugged terrain where vehicles are not able to reach, or where environmental concerns prohibit roadbuilding. These operations are referred to as **longline** because of the long, single sling line used to carry the load.
## History
Bell 47 helicopters were the first, lightweight aerial cranes to be used in the early 1950s. It was never capable of carrying more than a few hundred pounds of cargo. In the 1960s, the Sikorsky S-58 replaced the Bell 47 because of its larger power margin. Even today, S-58s can be found carrying medium-size loads. The 1960s also brought the Bell 211 *HueyTug*, a specially produced commercial version of the UH-1C for lifting medium loads, and even the popular Bell 206 was used for light loads. But there continued to be a demand for aircraft able to lift even larger loads
Larger helicopters became commercially available after the Vietnam War as helicopter manufacturers focused on selling commercial versions of their military aircraft. For instance, Boeing Vertol Model 107 and Model 234 aircraft have been used to carry even heavier payloads than their lighter predecessors. But the heaviest loads required a pure aerial crane. The answer came from Sikorsky\'s S-64 Skycrane. Originally produced for the military as the CH-54 Tarhe for heavy lifting of downed aircraft and artillery pieces, the S-64 Skycrane was nothing more than just enough airframe to attach two powerful engines, the main and tail rotors and transmissions, a cockpit, and a cargo hook and winch system.
Skycranes were used in 1972 when the Chesapeake Bay Bridge connecting Maryland and the Eastern Shore was being built to bring concrete and other supplies to the construction site. In 1993, an Erickson aerial Skycrane, normally used for hauling lumber in Oregon, was used to remove the "Statue of Freedom" from the top of the Capitol dome in Washington, D.C. The statue was placed on the ground while it was being cleaned and restored before being gently returned to the top of the dome, once again with a Skycrane

# Adenanthos sericeus
***Adenanthos sericeus***, commonly known as **woolly bush**, is a shrub native to the south coast of Western Australia. It has bright red but small and obscure flowers, and very soft, deeply divided, hairy leaves.
## Description
*Adenanthos sericeus* mostly grows as an upright, spreading shrub but occasionally takes the habit of a small tree up to 5 m (16 ft) tall. It has erect branches that are covered in short hairs when young, but these are lost with age. Leaves may be up to 40 mm (1.6 in) long, and repeatedly divide by threes into from 5 to 50 narrow laciniae, circular in cross-section, with a diameter of less than 0.5 mm (0.02 in).
Flowers are red, and occur alone or in small groups, hidden within the foliage at the end of branches. As with most other Proteaceae, each flower is composed of a tubular perianth of four united tepals, ending in a structure called a *limb*; and a single pistil, the stigma of which is initially trapped inside the limb, but is released at anthesis. In *A. sericeus*, the perianth is bright red, about 28 mm (1.1 in) long, hairy on the outside but smooth and hairless inside. The style is about 40 mm (1.6 in) long; being much longer than the perianth, it is very sharply bent for as long as the stigma remains trapped within the limb, and then springs erect. The fruit is an oval-shaped achene about 5 mm (0.2 in) long.
## Taxonomy
### Discovery and naming {#discovery_and_naming}
This species was first described by Jacques Labillardière in his 1805 *Novae Hollandiae Plantarum Specimen*, under the name *Adenanthos sericea*. No explicit etymology for the specific name was given, but it is accepted that it is from the Latin *sericeus* (\"silky\"), in reference to the very soft foliage.
Labillardière did not acknowledge any collector, and so it was long thought that Labillardière himself has collected the first botanical specimens. This was not obviously problematic, as *A. sericeus* does occur at Esperance Bay, where Labillardière collected in December 1792. However, several Australian plant species described by Labillardière do not occur in any locations that he visited, suggesting that some of his specimens were obtained from some other collector whom he failed to credit. This prompted a re-evaluation of the type material by Ernest Charles Nelson, who found several items of evidence suggesting that Labillardière could not have collected the specimens that he apparently used to describe the species:
- The specimens are labelled as having come from the herbarium of René Louiche Desfontaines, not that of Labillardière
- The specimens belong to the King George Sound form of the species (since published as *A. sericeus* subsp. *sericeus*), which Labillardière could not have collected; whereas the Esperance Bay populations of this species belong to a distinctively different form (since published as *A. sericeus* subsp. *sphalma*).
- Present-day Esperance Bay populations of *A. sericeus* are restricted to the granitic soils of Cape Le Grand at the extreme east of Esperance Bay, whereas Labillardière collected only in the vicinity of Observatory Island and Observatory Point, 30 km (20 mi) west of Cape Le Grand at the extreme west of Esperance Bay, where the soils are not of granitic origin.
Nelson concluded that Labillardière could not have collected this species, instead attributing collection to Jean Baptiste Leschenault de la Tour, who visited King George Sound in 1803 as a member of Nicolas Baudin\'s voyage of exploration. This view has been accepted by some scholars though others treat it more cautiously.

# Adenanthos sericeus
## Taxonomy
### Infrageneric placement {#infrageneric_placement}
In 1870, George Bentham published the first infrageneric arrangement of *Adenanthos* in Volume 5 of his landmark *Flora Australiensis*. Bentham divided the genus into two sections, placing *A. sericea* in *A.* sect. *Stenolaema* because its perianth tube is straight and not swollen above the middle. This arrangement still stands today, though *A.* sect. *Stenolaema* is now renamed to the autonym *A.* sect. *Adenanthos*. Bentham also published a variety, *A. sericea* var. *brevifolia* (now *A. macropodianus*) based on specimens collected from Kangaroo Island in South Australia.
This broad view of *A. sericea* continued into the 20th century, with several other species included in it, including *A. oreophila* and *A. cygnorum*. The current, narrower circumscription originated with Nelson\'s 1970 investigation of *Adenanthos*. Nelson was interested in the problem of why there are so many plant species with disjunct distribution patterns in southern Australia. One such species was *A. sericea*, the Kangaroo Island form of which occurred about 2500 km (1600 mi) east of the nearest population of the Western Australian variety. This led Nelson to undertake a full taxonomic revision of *Adenanthos*, in the course of which he concluded that the Kangaroo Island form of *A. sericea* warranted species rank, primarily because leaves are much smaller and have fewer laciniae than the Western Australian *A. sericea*. In 1978 he published *A. macropodiana* and synonymized *A. sericea* var. *brevifolia* with it. He also published *A. oreophila* and clarified confusion between *A. sericea* and *A. cygnorum*. Finally, Nelson refined Bentham\'s arrangement by dividing *A.* sect. *Adenanthos* into two subsections, with *A. sericea* placed into *A.* subsect. *Adenanthos* for reasons including the length of its perianth. However Nelson discarded his own subsections in his 1995 treatment of *Adenanthos* for the *Flora of Australia* series of monographs. By this time, the ICBN had issued a ruling that all genera ending in *-anthos* must be treated as having masculine gender; thus the specific epithet became *sericeus*.
The placement of *A. sericeus* in Nelson\'s arrangement of *Adenanthos* may be summarised as follows:
: ***Adenanthos***
: *A.* sect. *Eurylaema* (4 species)
: ***A.* sect. *Adenanthos***

: *A. cygnorum* (2 subspecies)
: *A. meisneri*
: *A. velutinus*
: *A. filifolius*
: *A. labillardierei*
: *A. acanthophyllus*
### Subspecies and hybrids {#subspecies_and_hybrids}
Two subspecies are recognised:
- *A. sericeus* subsp. *sericeus* is an autonym that encompasses the populations around King George Sound. The leaves of this subspecies are typically over 30 mm (1.2 in) long, and divided into many laciniae: average numbers range from 11 to 35, but individual leaves may have up to 50.
- *A. sericeus* subsp. *sphalma* encompasses the populations at Cape Le Grand, which have smaller leaves typically divided into around 6 laciniae, and rarely more than 12. The existence of two subspecies was recognised by Nelson as early as 1975, but because of the confusion surrounding the type collection, Nelson treated this subspecies as encompassing the type material and therefore treated it as the autonymic subspecies. This error appeared in his doctoral thesis and on herbarium specimens annotations made by Nelson before 1977. This explains the subspecific epithet *sphalma*, from the Latin *sphalmus* (\"mistake\").
*Adenanthos* × *cunninghamii* is considered a hybrid between *A. sericeus* subsp. *sericeus* and *A. cuneatus*. It occurs in Torndirrup National Park and sometimes at Two Peoples Bay, and back-crosses with *A. cuneatus* have also been found in the vicinity of King George Sound. It can be distinguished from *A. sericeus* by its duller flowers, and by its foliage, which has very thick laciniae and, like, *A. cuneatus*, red new growth.
### Common names {#common_names}
Common names for *A. sericeus* include *Woollybush*---a name applied to all *Adenanthos* species with deeply divided foliage---and various qualifications of this, including *Coastal Woollybush*, *Tall Woollybush*, and *Albany Woollybush*. However the last of these also refers to *A.* × *cunninghamii*, and Nelson has referred to it as \"\[a\] name\... so confused it is now almost useless.\" In the cut flower industry, which values its silvery foliage, the common names *Smoke Bush* and *Australian Smoke Bush* have also been used.
In Australian nurseries, it is sold under the name *Silver Streak* as a popular hedge plant for domestic gardens and landscaping.
## Distribution and habitat {#distribution_and_habitat}
*Adenanthos sericeus* has a disjunct distribution spanning about 500 km (300 mi) of the south coast of Western Australia. *A. sericeus* subsp. *sericeus* occurs mostly around King George Sound, extending west as far as Torbay Inlet and east almost to Cape Riche; it sometimes occurs very close to the sea. There is then a gap of over 300 km (200 mi) to the populations of *A. sericeus* subsp. *sphalma* at Cape Le Grand. Another group of *A. sericeus* subsp. *sphalma* occurs 100 km (60 mi) further east at Cape Arid.
Both subspecies are calcifuge, occurring only in siliceous sands derived from weathered granite. Thus most populations are associated with granite monadnocks. Though its range is restricted, it is locally common and often dominant. *A. sericeus* subsp. *sphalma* is often found in association with *Nuytsia floribunda*, *Kunzea baxteri*, and *Xanthorrhoea* species.

# Adenanthos sericeus
## Ecology
Both subspecies flower throughout the year, though *A. sericeus* subsp. *sphalma* flowers most between August and December.
It is susceptible to *Phytophthora cinnamomi* dieback.
## Cultivation
Though its flowers are inconspicuous, *A. sericeus* is considered an attractive garden plant for the colour and texture of its dense foliage. Its high tolerance of salt-laden winds makes it an excellent screen plant in coastal areas. In the Albany area, branches or entire potted plants are used as Christmas trees, since young plants are shaped like small pine trees but have a silky feel. One study of application of controlled-release fertiliser to *A. sericeus* in pots found it benefited from increasing levels of fertiliser, whereas other species plateaued at lower levels. Propagation is by cuttings. These strike readily, but care must be taken not to mist the foliage too much, or it will rot. It requires very good drainage, and performs poorly in humid areas. Lacking a lignotuber, it tolerates only light pruning.
Several cultivars have become available, including two developed and propagated in Israel.
The silvery foliage is used commercially in the cut flower industry. It has an unusually long vase life: tests have yielded a vase life of 30 days, regardless of treatment or time of year

**WAAL** (99.1 FM; \"The Whale\") is a commercial radio station licensed to Binghamton, New York. It airs a classic rock radio format and is owned by Townsquare Media. WAAL is the oldest FM radio station continuously broadcasting in the Binghamton metropolitan area. It is an affiliate of the New York Giants Radio Network.
The studios and offices are on Court Street in Binghamton. The transmitter is off Ingraham Hill Road, also in Binghamton, amid other towers for local TV and FM stations.
## History
### WKOP-FM {#wkop_fm}
In March 1954, the station signed on as WKOP-FM at 95.3 MHz. It was the FM counterpart of WKOP (1360 AM; later WYOS). The two stations simulcast and were network affiliates of the Mutual Broadcasting System. They were owned by Binghamton Broadcasters, Inc. At first, WKOP-FM broadcast at only 420 watts, a fraction of the station\'s current power.
While WKOP-FM (now WAAL) has been continuously on the air since 1954, WNBF-FM (now 98.1 WHWK) went on the air 14 years earlier as an experimental station owned by the Howitt-Wood Radio Company. But it left the airwaves from 1952 to 1956.
In the 1960s, WKOP-FM received Federal Communications Commission (FCC) permission to move to 99.1 MHz, with an increase in power to 33,000 watts. By 1970, it ended its simulcast with WKOP 1360 and began playing a progressive rock format.
### WAAL
In 1974, the station was sold to Butternut Broadcasting, which switched the call sign to WAAL. It moved to an album-oriented rock (AOR) format, playing the top tracks from the biggest selling albums. The station was known as \"WAAL Stereo FM 99\". It pronounces its call letters as \"Whale\" and uses a cartoon whale as its mascot.
The station dropped its AOR format in October 1985 for Top 40/CHR after contemporary hit station WWWT-FM switched to adult contemporary music. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, WAAL was known as \"The Hot FM\" and was affiliated with the ABC FM Network.
Wicks Broadcasting bought WAAL in 1996. It ended its run as a Top 40/CHR station and changed its format to classic rock.
### Citadel ownership, then Townsquare {#citadel_ownership_then_townsquare}
WAAL was acquired by Citadel Broadcasting in 1998 from Wicks Broadcast Group. It was part of a \$77 million deal that included a total of 16 radio stations. Citadel merged with Cumulus Media on September 16, 2011.
In 2013, a \$281 million, multi-station deal was worked out between Cumulus Media, Townsquare Media and Peak Broadcasting. Townsquare acquired all of Cumulus Media\'s Binghamton radio stations, including WAAL. With Townsquare\'s take over, the classic rock format has remained in place on WAAL

# The Country Captain
***The Country Captain**\'\', alternatively known as***Captain Underwit**\'\', is a Caroline era stage play written by William Cavendish, 1st Duke of Newcastle, and first published in 1649. It has attracted critical attention primarily for the question of James Shirley\'s participation in its authorship.
## Date and performance {#date_and_performance}
The play\'s date of authorship and its performance history are not known in detail; it was performed at the Blackfriars Theatre by the King\'s Men, and is plausibly dated to c. 1639--40.
*The Country Captain* was revived early in the Restoration period. Samuel Pepys saw it performed on 21 October 1661. In his Diary he called it \"so silly a play as in all my life I never saw\" -- though this negative verdict did not prevent Pepys from seeing the play again on 25 November that year, on 14 August 1667 and on 14 May 1668.
## Texts
The play was first printed in a duodecimo volume that included Newcastle\'s play *The Variety,* issued by the booksellers Humphrey Moseley and Humphrey Robinson in 1649. That first edition attributes the plays only to \"a person of honor,\" though Newcastle\'s authorship is stated in 17th-century sources. *The Country Captain* also exists in a manuscript, Harleian MS. 7650 in the collection of the British Museum; the MS. is judged to be in the hand of Edward Knight, the prompter of the King\'s Men. The two texts are very similar though not identical; the manuscript appears to be the original authorial version, while the printed text shows the cuts and changes that adjusted the play for stage performance.

# The Country Captain
## Authorship
A. H. Bullen edited the play, from the manuscript, for the second volume of his series *Old English Plays* (1883) -- apparently unaware of the 1649 printed text. Bullen followed J. O. Halliwell-Philips in titling the play *Captain Underwit,* and attributed the work to James Shirley. Subsequent critics and scholars have almost universally concluded that Bullen went too far to assigning the entire play to Shirley, and have judged that Newcastle \"is almost certainly the author of this comedy.\" But most have accepted the view that Shirley had some hand in helping Newcastle to write the play. Some have speculated a connection with a lost play by Shirley titled *Look to the Lady,* which was entered into the Stationers\' Register on 11 March 1640 but never published -- \"Look to the Lady\" being a reasonable alternative title for the drama (see the Synopsis below).
The relationship between Cavendish and Shirley is clear from 17th-century sources. In his *Athenae Oxoniensis,* Anthony à Wood wrote that \"our author Shirley did also much assist his generous patron William duke of Newcastle in the composition of certain plays, which the duke afterwards published.\" Shirley also dedicated his tragedy *The Traitor* to Newcastle upon its 1635 publication. The signs of Shirley\'s hand in *The Country Captain* are abundant and varied; they range from parallels of plot device and characterization to specific phrasings. For examples of the latter: *The Country Captain* employs the phrase \"feather-footed Hours,\" which also occurs in two of Shirley\'s masques, *The Triumph of Beauty* and *The Triumph of Peace.* The line \"That snorts at Spain by an instinct of Nature\" can be found both in *The Country Captain* and in Shirley\'s *The Bird in a Cage.* A verse beginning \"Come let us throw the dice,\" which is used as a drinking song in the play, is printed in Shirley\'s *Poems* (1646).

# The Country Captain
## Synopsis
Sir Richard Huntlove is an elderly aristocrat who is jealous of his beautiful and vivacious young wife. His jealousy is more valid than he realizes, for Lady Huntlove is planning an affair with a gentleman named Sir Francis Courtwell. To distance his wife from the temptations of London, Sir Richard moves his household to his country estate -- along with a gaggle of followers and hangers-on, including: Lady Huntlove\'s otherwise-unnamed Sister; Sir Francis Courtwell and his nephew, the younger Courtwell being in love with the Sister; Captain Underwit, Sir Richard\'s stepson by his first wife; Engine, a \"projector\" or speculator; Device, a \"fantastical gallant;\" and Captain Sacksbury, a drunken old soldier. Captain Underwit has just received a commission in the local militia, and Captain Sacksbury is his mentor. Lady Huntlove\'s maid Dorothy is also present; she intends to become Mrs. Capt. Underwit.
Sir Francis arranges a meeting with Lady Huntlove; he fakes indisposition when Sir Richard goes hunting. Sir Richard returns unexpectedly and catches the two together -- but Lady Huntlove manages to convince her husband that she is sleepwalking. The would-be lovers try for a second assignation: the Lady pretends to be pacing the floor with a toothache, and when her husband is asleep Dorothy slips into bed in her place and Lady Huntlove goes to Sir Francis. But the gentleman, tired of waiting, has fallen asleep. For their third attempt, Sir Francis intends to fake a riding accident while he and Sir Richard are going to London, and so return to the estate without the husband. He falls off his horse in reality, though, and injures himself seriously; and he takes this as a bad omen and turns penitent.
The younger Courtwell has better luck in courting Lady Huntlove\'s Sister -- though at first she mocks and ridicules him, and he responds in kind. Paradoxically, the Sister is provoked by Courtwell\'s subsequent coolness; the two end up married. Dorothy sends a false letter to Sir Richard, indicating that she, Dorothy, is a runaway, and the daughter of a rich knight. Captain Underwit marries her in the belief that she\'s a good catch\...and later finds out the truth.
A supply of more blatant comedy is provided by Engine, who has to feign lunacy to escape the consequences of his previous financial manipulations and swindles.
In addition to a wide range of commonalities with Shirley\'s plays, *The Country Captain* shows debts to the drama of Ben Jonson. This is unsurprising, since Newcastle was a patron and friend of Jonson, and on the basis of his plays is often included in the so-called Sons of Ben, the group of self-styled imitators of the master

# Murder of Pearl Bryan
**Pearl Bryan** (c. 1874--1896) was a 22-year-old pregnant American woman from Greencastle, Indiana who was found decapitated in Fort Thomas, Kentucky, in 1896. Her head was severed below the fifth vertebra. Due to the murder\'s gruesome nature, it achieved significant notoriety at the time. More recently, there have been claims that her ghost haunts Bobby Mackey\'s Music World located in Wilder, Kentucky.
Bryan had graduated from Greencastle High School, and was working as a Sunday school teacher at the time of her murder. She maintained a secret romantic relationship with a dental student of the Ohio College of Dental Surgery. Her lover and his roommate slipped cocaine into Bryan\'s drink while they were at a saloon in Cincinnati, Ohio, and proceeded to murder her later that night. Both students were convicted of first degree murder and hanged in the morning of March 20, 1897.
## Background
Pearl Bryan was born to Alexander S. Bryan and Susan Jane Bryan. Her father was a well-respected farmer in the community. She was a graduate of Greencastle High School. At the time of her murder, she had begun working as a Sunday school teacher. Bryan had left her home in Greencastle on January 28, 1896, under the pretense that she was visiting a friend in Indianapolis.
## Convictions
Bryan\'s body was found headless just behind what is now the YMCA in Fort Thomas, Kentucky on February 1, 1896, by a 17-year-old farm hand named Johnny Hewling. According to the presiding coroner, Bryan was found with multiple wounds across her back and her hands. He also indicated that she was decapitated while still alive. She was five months pregnant at the time of her death. Her body was identified by the tag in her custom-made shoes from Greencastle, Indiana. Pearl Bryan\'s headless body is buried in the family plot at Forest Hill Cemetery in Greencastle.
Scott Jackson, a dental student at the Ohio College of Dental Surgery, was soon arrested for the murder, and later implicated fellow student and roommate Alonzo M. Walling. During the trial, it was revealed that Jackson had carried on a secret romance with Bryan for several months prior to her murder. Allegedly, on January 31, 1896, Jackson and Walling slipped cocaine into Bryan\'s drink while they were at a saloon in nearby Cincinnati, Ohio and proceeded to murder her later that night. An analysis of Bryan\'s stomach showed that there was indeed cocaine present at the time of her death. In response to the location of Bryan\'s head, Jackson and Walling gave several answers, such as at the bottom of the Ohio River and in a sandbar in Dayton, Kentucky. The nearby Covington waterworks and parts of the Miami and Erie Canal were also drained in search of her head. However, investigations in these places turned up nothing. When interviewed in 1937, former detective Cal Crim of the Cincinnati Police Department theorized that Jackson and Walling burned her head in a furnace of the dental college that they attended. To this day, her head has never been located. Jackson\'s trial began April 21 and ended on May 14, 1896. Walling\'s trial began on May 26 and ended June 18 of the same year. Both were convicted of first degree murder and hanged in the morning of March 20, 1897 behind the Newport Campbell County Courthouse on York Street, just south of the Taylor-Southgate bridge. According to reports, both Jackson and Walling survived the initial drop that was supposed to break their necks and instead were strangled to death some minutes after. They were the last people hanged in Newport. The gallows located behind the courthouse were torn down following the execution.
The case was very popular nationally at the time, provoking citizens to take souvenirs from the crime scene (even branches), and buy Pearl Bryan \"merchandise\" from a store near the Newport Courthouse. One report says the trial was \"theatrical\". Local newspapers dubbed the case \"the trial of the century\". The actual double-hanging was urged to be done hastily due to the threat of a public lynching by friends and relatives of Bryan. Jim Reis, author, historian, and well-known reporter and columnist for the *Kentucky Post*, related in an article titled \"Pieces of the Past\" that even during a jail break at the Newport jail, the two men remained in their cell in fear of being lynched and were heavily protected.

# Murder of Pearl Bryan
## Popular culture {#popular_culture}
### Music
In the 1910s and the 1920s, several folk songs surrounding the murder were created and popularized. The first to be recorded was by American country singer Vernon Dalhart in 1926. A year later, in 1927, folk singer Bradley Kincaid recorded a song named \"Pearl Bryan\" on the topic of the murder. Folk musicians Dick Burnett and Leonard Rutherford also recorded their own version in the same era.
In 2001, San Francisco-based folklore band The Crooked Jades recorded a song that focused on the murder.
### Web and TV shows {#web_and_tv_shows}
An episode of *Ghost Adventures* explored Bryan\'s murder and claims of supernatural activity at Bobby Mackey\'s Music World. The Ghost Adventures crew claim an Ovilus device allowed them to contact the spirit of Scott Jackson and hear him confess to the murder (2008).
Bryan\'s murder is featured in the second episode of *Most Terrifying Places in America* (2009).
The case was featured in an episode of the PRX podcast *Criminal*, which focused on the many versions of a folk song about the murder (2015).
The BuzzFeed Unsolved episode called *The Ghosts and Demons Of Bobby Mackey\'s* reviewed part of Pearl\'s murder (2017).
Produced by Karga Seven Pictures, the third episode of Travel Channel*\'s Believers* entitled *Hell\'s Honky-Tonk* dealt with an allegedly haunted country music nightclub, mentioning a 19th-century story of a pregnant woman\'s dead body that was found headless. Due to anonymization, names were seemingly changed and the murder was supposed to have been taking place in Tennessee (2020).
Am episode on the YouTube channel Mystery Archives titled *The Untold Story of the Demonic Bobby Mackey\'s* mentions the history of Pearl and her murder (2023).
### Books and artwork {#books_and_artwork}
An illustrated oracle card in the *Southern Gothic Oracle* expansion pack called *The Haunts* features a grisly illustration of Bryan\'s headless ghost wandering in the Kentucky moonlight (2021). The deck was designed by Stacey Williams-Ng and features a variety of Southern ghosts, monsters and cryptids

# Battle of Bilbao
The **Battle of Bilbao**, part of the War in the North in the Spanish Civil War, saw the Nationalist Army capture Bilbao and the rest of the Basque Country that was still being held by the Spanish Republic.
## Background
Bilbao was the capital of the autonomous Basque area, which had been established by the Spanish Republic after the war began to reward Basque nationalist support of the Republic. The Basque people in Spain generally inhabit four provinces: Navarre, Álava, Gipuzkoa and Biscay. The Basque nationalists were dominant in the last two provinces. Navarre and Álava had rallied to the rising against the Republic.
The Spanish Nationalist troops gained Gipuzkoa early in the war with the fall of Irún in August and San Sebastián on 13 September 1936, isolating the Basque Country and the zone held by the Northern Republicans from the French border. On 31 March, the Nationalists, led by the General Emilio Mola, launched an offensive against Biscay Province. The Basque troops had to retire, and by June, the Nationalists had reached the outskirts of Bilbao.
## Battle
By 11 June 1937. the Basque forces had fallen back to the city of Bilbao, which was defended by a series of rushed fortifications called the \"Bilbao\'s Iron Ring\". It was poorly designed for defence. It was quite an antiquated concept, akin to First World War fortifications, and so was vulnerable to modern warfare and weapons, such as aircraft and artillery. Also, only 30,000 troops defended it although it had been conceived to be defended by 70,000. Therefore. the Iron Ring was rather easily overcome by Nationalist forces.
The ring was breached by an infantry assault supported by heavy air and artillery bombardment (150 guns and 70 bombers). On 12 June, the Spanish Republican Army launched a diversionary attack against Huesca to stop the Nationalist offensive, but the Nationalist troops continued their advance. On the night of 13 June, the defenders evacuated most of the civilian population from the city. On 18 June, General Ulibarri withdrew his remaining troops from Bilbao, and the Nationalists occupied the city on the following day. The city\'s bridges had been destroyed to hinder the attackers, but the city remained mostly intact

# Torsion field (pseudoscience)
A **torsion field** (also called **axion field**, **spin field**, **spinor field**, and **microlepton field**) is a reoccurring feature of many pseudoscientific proposals. It posits that the quantum spin of particles can be used to cause emanations to carry information through vacuum orders of magnitude faster than the speed of light.
## History
The first torsion field proposals were proposed in the late Soviet Union by a group of physicists in the 1980s who loosely based their ideas on Einstein--Cartan theory and some variant solutions of Maxwell\'s equations that do not have a solid grounding in scientific fact. The group, led by Anatoly Akimov and Gennady Shipov, began the research as the state-sponsored Center for Nontraditional Technologies. They disbanded in 1991 when their research was exposed by physicist Eugene Alexandrov as a fraud and an embezzlement of government funding. Akimov and Shipov received financing for torsion field research from the Russian Ministry of Science from 1992 to 1995 and from the Russian Ministry of Defense from 1996 to 1997, and secretly continued their research, with a private enterprise called The International Institute for Theoretical and Applied Physics (later called UVITOR).
Presently championed exclusively outside of reputable scientific research due to its lack of evidence and absence of sound theoretical underpinning, the theory has been used to proclaim faster-than-light travel (FTL), extra-sensory perception (ESP), homeopathy, levitation, and other paranormal phenomena, and has been used to provide a rationale for the purported functioning of miracle cures and similar products. These claims have no independent backing.
## Description
In physics, a field is an assignment of a quantity (vector, tensor, or spinor) to every point of the space containing it. The word \"torsion\" refers to any variable that describes rotation. Thus, torsion fields (i.e., fields of any physical value reasonably described as \"torsion\") do exist in established physics aside from in this pseudoscientific case, where the terms have been misappropriated. For example, an electromagnetic wave with circular polarization or the stress tensor of a solid body under torsion stress can be described as torsion fields, although such usage is rare. The torsion tensor is a quantity in general relativity, and plays an important role in Einstein--Cartan theory. Spinor fields, in particular fermionic fields, are existing concepts from particle physics and quantum field theory.
Advocates for the existence of the spinor field or torsion field as described here claim that spin-spin interaction`{{snd}}`{=mediawiki} itself a well-studied quantum phenomenon`{{snd}}`{=mediawiki} can be transmitted through space similar to electromagnetic waves, but transmitting no mass or energy but only information, and does so at speeds of up to a billion times the speed of light, in explicit violation of special relativity. At the same time they claim that spin-spin interaction is carried by neutrinos`{{snd}}`{=mediawiki} which have very little mass and high energy and interact with matter through the weak interaction`{{snd}}`{=mediawiki} that it does not interact with matter but, at the same time, can be generated and detected easily.
## Claimed applications {#claimed_applications}
Despite the several obvious contradictions with established physics along with associated statements by believers criticized as being \"nonsensical\" by reputable scientists, torsion fields have been embraced as an explanation for claims of homeopathic cures, telepathy, telekinesis, levitation, clairvoyance, ESP, and other paranormal phenomena. The harnessing of torsion fields has been claimed to make everything possible from miracle cure devices (including devices that cure alcohol addiction) to working perpetual motion machines, stargates, UFO propulsion analogs, and weapons of mass destruction (WMDs). Some such devices, in particular the miracle cure boxes, have been patented, manufactured and sold.

## Funding of torsion-field-related projects {#funding_of_torsion_field_related_projects}
Proponents of torsion field have sought large-scale government and military contracts at different times, starting with the 1987 application to the Ministry of Defence of the USSR requesting funding to develop \"highly-reliable detection of an enemy strategic weapons (ICBM, nuclear submarine, aircraft, etc.); the long-range destruction of enemy strategic weapons without contact; covert jamming-resistant communications with objects in outer space, on Earth, underground, and underwater; mobile equipment on gravitational principles; and psychophysical and biomedical influence on troops and the population\" The Soviet government allocated 500 million rubles (about US\$7 million at today\'s exchange rate) for this research.
Another example of such funding applications was an experiment conducted in 1994 by the Russian private research group \"VENT\" (VEnture for Non-traditional Technologies,) which claimed to lower the resistivity of copper to as little as 1/80 of its normal value after exposing it to a torsion field generator. The group applied to the government of the Russian Federation for funding to open a factory, and promised great savings in energy consumption. The samples of exposed and unexposed copper were independently tested in presence of a VENT representative and their resistivities were not only found to be identical \[(2.08±0.02)×10^−7^ Ωm and (2.05±0.02)×10^−7^ Ωm\], but worse than industrial copper as well (1.7×10^−8^ Ωm).
In 2002, an application was made for oil drilling licenses in Russia and the UK using \"microlepton technologies\".
On 23 May 2008, the Khrunichev State Research and Production Space Center launched the Yubileiny satellite. On it was installed a reactionless drive engine (along with other regular engines) based on \"torsion field\" technologies. In a debate after the launch, scientist and member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, `{{interlanguage link|Eduard Kruglyakov|ru|Кругляков, Эдуард Павлович}}`{=mediawiki}, concluded that the installed engine had not changed the satellite\'s orbit by even a micron.
In 2011, National Research Council of Thailand approved a 4 million baht (around \$130,000 ) fund for \"Torsion Field Technologies\" research at Chulalongkorn University

# Joseph Sunnen
**Joseph Sunnen** (June 16, 1897--April 1979) was an American machinery manufacturer, and founder of the Sunnen Foundation.
## Biography
Sunnen was born in the coal mining town of Thayer, Illinois. He left school in the 7th grade to help on the family farm. At age 17, he purchased a Missouri lead mine with family savings, however, this failed and his brother Gus offered him employment in his automobile garage in Mexico, Missouri.[1](https://web.archive.org/web/20110718203122/http://www.ja.org/nested/stlouis/Sunnen.pdf)
In 1923, at age 21, Sunnen applied for his first of nearly 100 patents, a valve lifter tool, marking the beginnings of Sunnen Company. However that same year he was nearly killed in a work explosion which burnt most of his body, and spent a year recovering. He returned to his brother\'s garage for employment and while in Mexico, Missouri, met and married Miss Cornelia Miller.[2](https://web.archive.org/web/20110718203122/http://www.ja.org/nested/stlouis/Sunnen.pdf) They moved to St. Louis to pursue Sunnen\'s manufacturing ambitions in 1924. There Sunnen converted a 1916 Hupmobile into a camper and set out on the road to sell 500 of his new valve lifter tools. They sold two or three tools a day until they reached Mankato, Minnesota where a large distributor of shop tools bought his remaining stock and placed an order for 1,000 additional tools. Following the trip, Sunnen returned home to build his manufacturing business around the auto engine rebuilding trade.[3](https://web.archive.org/web/20070927025751/http://www.manufacturingcenter.com/metlfax/archives/0701/0701lct.asp) The Sunnen Company grew to become a renowned global manufacturer of precision honing devices, and holds a position of global prominence to this day.
In 1946, Joseph Sunnen made a generous donation to the Ozarks YMCA, and subsequently formed the Sunnen Foundation for further charitable projects. Sunnen\'s children and grandchildren continue to use the Sunnen Foundation as a vehicle for charity, with a particular emphasis on First Amendment rights, reproductive rights, and youth services.
In 1957, Joseph Sunnen and his wife, Cornelia, traveled to Puerto Rico and were taken on an inspection tour of some of the poorer neighborhoods. Joseph Sunnen believed deeply that people had the right to not bring children into the world, particularly if they did not have the means to support them. He \"considered it an overwhelming challenge to invent a birth-control device that would be medically acceptable, easy to sue and low in price.\". He worked with The St. Louis School of Pharmacy to develop the first spermicidal foam. After testing for safety and efficacy, he approached a large pharmaceutical company about producing his product, but they showed no interest. So, in 1961, Sunnen started Emko at 411 E. Gano Avenue, just down from the main building of Sunnen Products Co

# Fuel for the Fire (Naked Eyes album)
***Fuel for the Fire*** is the second album by British duo Naked Eyes, released in 1984. The band had top 40 success with the first single off the album, \"(What) In the Name of Love\", produced by Arthur Baker, which reached No. 39 in the US on the *Billboard* Hot 100, and in a remix by Baker, No. 35 on the Dance chart. The album peaked at No. 83 on the *Billboard* Top 200 Albums chart.
While a modest hit, it had not matched the commercial and critical success of their debut; in their home country of the UK, neither the album nor its single had charted. Baker remixed another track he had produced for the duo, \"Sacrifice\", but the record company never released a follow-up to the top 40 lead single and Naked Eyes disbanded following the underwhelming reception.
The album was released for the first time on CD in 2013 by Cherry Red Records.

# Love Songs (Beatles album)
***Love Songs*** is a compilation album that comprises love songs recorded by the Beatles between 1962 and 1970. It was released by Capitol Records in the United States on 21 October 1977 (catalogue number SKBL-11711) and on Parlophone in the United Kingdom on 19 November 1977 (PCSP 721). The compilation peaked at #24 in *Billboard\'s* Top LPs & Tape chart during a 31-week stay that began on 12 November 1977. The RIAA certified the album with sales of three million units in 2000 even though the compilation was deleted in the late 1980s. The New Zealand release followed the US release with cat. no. and pressing plates, and was released on 2 different EMI labels.
The LP\'s original packaging included an 11 x 11\" booklet, with the songs\' lyrics printed, calligraphy-style, on simulated parchment paper. For the first several pressings, the cover itself was simulated leather, and the Beatles\' image (a re-working of Richard Avedon\'s 1967 portrait, featured in *Look Magazine*) was simulated gold-foil. The LP was also available on yellow vinyl.
As with the previous year\'s *Rock \'n\' Roll Music* compilation, the songs were presented with the left and right channels reversed, with the four *Rubber Soul* tracks - \"Girl\", \"In My Life\", \"Michelle\", and \"Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)\" - appearing in slightly narrowed stereo. Three further tracks---\"Yes It Is\", \"This Boy\", and \"P.S. I Love You\"---used the Duophonic mixes.

# Mark Twain (film)
***Mark Twain*** is a documentary film on the life of Mark Twain, also known as Samuel Clemens, produced by Ken Burns in 2001 which aired on Public Broadcasting System on January 14 and 15, 2002. Burns attempted to capture both the public and private persona of Mark Twain from his birth to his death. The film was narrated by Keith David.
## Voice actors and subject interviews {#voice_actors_and_subject_interviews}
The voice of Mark Twain was provided by Kevin Conway and the voice of Olivia Langdon Clemens was portrayed by Blythe Danner. Other voice work was provided by actors Philip Bosco, Carolyn McCormick, Amy Madigan, Cynthia Nixon, and Tim Clark. The film also includes interviews with playwright Arthur Miller, novelist and Twain biographer Ron Powers, writer William Styron, poet Russell Banks, historian John Boyer (executive director of the Mark Twain House), Harvard University professor Jocelyn Chadwick, Stanford University English literature professor Shelley Fisher Fishkin, comedian and civil rights activist Dick Gregory, actor Hal Holbrook, animator and actor Chuck Jones, and Mark Twain scholar Laura Skandera Trombley.
## Critical assessment {#critical_assessment}
Mark Twain Legacy Scholar Barbara Schmidt asserts on her website twainquotes.com that some artistic license was taken, resulting in some historical inaccuracies and misrepresentations. She also notes, that some of these errors are the result of the Twain scholarship at time the documentary was made, and that more recent scholarship has revealed some of the factual errors that are in the documentary. Schmidt\'s website twainquotes.com is widely cited in academic publications on Twain and is highly regarded as an authoritative resource within Twain research.
Film critic Caryn James wrote the following in her review in *The New York Times*:
> \"No writer was ever more sardonic about American culture than Twain, and no filmmaker is more earnest than Ken Burns. In *Mark Twain* that makes for a maddening collision between Twain\'s ironic sensibility and Mr. Burns\'s familiar, sentimental style. Twain is forced into the Burns cookie cutter here, complete with the unironic sound of *Sweet Betsy from Pike*, fiddled relentlessly in the background

# Social services in Himachal Pradesh
Over the last 40 years the Indian state of Himachal Pradesh has witnessed much improvement in public health facilities.
## Hospitals
In 1989, there were around 899 public health institutions, including state hospital, twelve district hospitals, 189 primary health centres, besides mainstream \"Western\" and ayurvedic dispensaries and specialized medical institutions. In order to meet the shortage of doctors, a medical college was established in 1967, which is having post-graduate teaching facilities in some branches.\
Death rate has now come down by 70% due to numerous public health measures. The incidence of venereal disease, which was roughly about 17% in 1951, has now came down to 2% in 1989. Diseases like malaria and small pox has been eradicated. The *Tuberculosis control programme* has been a great success. People have taken a keen interest in the family planning programme. One of its interesting feature is that women have outnumbered men in its acceptance.
## Education
In 1948 the state had only 200 educational institutions, out of which most of them were primary schools. In 1989 the state had 9,112 educational institutions including 38 colleges, 932 high secondary and high schools, 1,068 middle schools and 7,074 primary schools. The enrollment in these institutions was nearly 1,122,000 or about 26% of the entire state. The literacy percentage which was just 6.7% in 1951 and 31.32% in 1971, raised to 42.48% in 1989 and in 1991 it further reached to 63.54%. Himachal got its first university in 1971. Then 2 more universities, one for agriculture and the other for horticulture and forestry were established at Palampur and Solan, respectively.

# Social services in Himachal Pradesh
## Water supply {#water_supply}
Drinking water supply poses a major problem in the state. Because of high altitude terrain and undulating topography drinking water is mainly obtained from streams. The pollution, lack of sanitation and open air defecation, leads to contamination of surface water. Water pollutants create a wide variety of problems by entering into the food chain. Over-exploitation of natural resources and dumping of hazardous wastes further aggravates the problem. Being unhygienic, it results to pollution and can spread diseases like hill dysentery. Since villages are sparsely populated and distantly located, the arrangement of drinking water leads to the problem of high costs. In 1948, except 4 towns, no other habitation in the state had piped water supply. By 1989, drinking water through pipes was made available in about 15,000 villages covering about 75% of the state population. Now alternate sources -underground water has been tapped through handpumps. Under ARWSP, the following norms are being adopted for providing drinking water to rural population in the habitations : 40 litres per capita per day of safe drinking water for human beings. 30 litres per capita per day additional for cattle in the desert development programme areas. One hand pump or stand post for every 250 persons. The water source should exist within 1.6 km in the plains and within 100 metres elevation in the hilly areas. \[Water is defined as safe if it is free from biological contamination (cholera, typhoid, etc.) and chemical contamination (excess arsenic, fluoride, salinity, iron, nitrates, etc.)\] Habitations which have a safe drinking water source point (either private or public) within 1.6 km in plains and 100 metre in hill areas but the capacity of the system ranges between 10 lpcd to 40 lpcd, are categorized as partially covered and those having less than 10 litres per capita per day are categorized as not covered.
All the 16807 census villages have been provided with drinking water facilities. An ambitious project, under the Bharat Nirman Yojna, more than 40107 habitations are fully covered March 2006 and remaining 5260 partially covered habitations to be provided drinking water facility by March 2007

# MSCRAMM
**MSCRAMM** (acronym for \"microbial surface components recognizing adhesive matrix molecules\") are adhesin proteins that mediate the initial attachment of bacteria to host tissue, providing a critical step to establish infection.
Examples include clumping factor A (ClfA), fibronectin binding protein A (FnbpA) from *Staphylococcus aureus*, SdrG from *Staphylococcus epidermidis*, M protein from *Streptococcus pyogenes*, and protein G in other *Streptococcus* species. All of these MSCRAMMs bind to fibrinogen, but also other targets for MSCRAMMs are known, such as fibronectin. Protein M binds to the Fc region of certain antibodies.
The MSCRAMMs have mainly been studied in Gram positive pathogens and are promising drug targets.
The monoclonal antibody tefibazumab targets ClfA and has been tested in a phase II trial.
***Staphylococcus aureus*** An example for MSCRAMMs is *S. aureus*. On its surface, protein A is expressed, which binds to the Fc region of IgG antibodies (the default antibody type, dealing with bacterial and viral infections). This has an antiphagocytic effect, i.e. macrophages cannot \"see\" these bacteria as easily as if they were correctly opsonised by antigen. Also, *S. aureus* expresses fibronectin-binding proteins, which promote binding to mucosal cells and tissue matrices. This protein is also referred to as clumping factor

# Gregory Kelley
**Gregory Eric \"Greg\" Kelley** (May 19, 1944 -- February 15, 1961) was an American figure skater who competed in men\'s singles. He won the junior title at the 1959 U.S. Figure Skating Championships and finished ninth at the 1960 World Figure Skating Championships after the top three U.S. skaters skipped the event. In 1961, he won the silver medal at the U.S. Nationals and the bronze at the North American Figure Skating Championships.
Kelley was the youngest of eight siblings. His parents were Dr. Vincent Kelley, who was a top surgeon in Boston, and his wife Nathalie. Kelley began skating at age eight after attending a learn-to-skate program at Boston\'s skating club. As a teenager, he moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado to train with Edi Scholdan at the Broadmoor Figure Skating Club. His older sister, Nathalie, took leave from her job as a high school science teacher to move to Colorado and serve as Kelley\'s chaperone. Aside from his figure skating career, Kelley\'s ambition was to be a doctor like his father. Kelley was a member of the American Numismatic Association and, as of 1961, had the world\'s largest collection of three-dollar bills. Kelley owned 42 of the 65 three-dollar bills that were known to exist.
Kelley was en route to the World Championships in 1961 when his plane (Sabena Flight 548) crashed near Brussels, Belgium, killing all on board. He was 16 at the time of his death. His 29-year-old sister, Nathalie, who accompanied her brother on the flight as a chaperone, was also killed in the crash.
On January 28, 2011, Michelson was inducted into the United States Figure Skating Hall of Fame along with the entire 1961 World Team.

# Margaret of Foix
**Margaret of Foix** (French: *Marguerite de Foix*; c. 1449-- 15 May 1487) was Duchess of Brittany from 1474 to 1487 by marriage to Duke Francis II.
## Life
She was the daughter of Queen Eleanor of Navarre (1425--1479) and of Gaston IV, Count of Foix (1425--1472).
On 27 June 1471, at the Château de Clisson, she married Francis II, Duke of Brittany (1435--1488), son of Richard of Brittany, Count of Étampes (1395--1438), and Margaret of Orléans, Countess of Vertus (1406--1466). It was Francis\'s second marriage, his first wife, Margaret of Brittany, having died in 1469.
Margaret of Foix died at the Château de Nantes in Nantes and is interred in the Cathedral of St. Peter and St. Paul (French: *Cathédrale Saint-Pierre-et-Saint-Paul*) beside her husband and Margaret of Brittany, in a magnificent tomb constructed in the early French Renaissance style.
## Issue
- Anne of Brittany (1477--1514), Duchess of Brittany (1488--1514), and twice Queen of France: from 1491 to 1498 as the wife of King Charles VIII of France, and from 1499 to 1514 as the wife of King Louis XII of France.
- Isabeau of Brittany (1478--1490), betrothed to Jean d\'Albret in 1481, died young, and was buried in the Rennes Cathedral
