# Hojo undō ## Conditioning ### `{{transliteration|ja|Makiwara}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_6} The `{{nihongo3|literally "wound straw"|巻き藁|makiwara}}`{=mediawiki} is a striking board used to practice striking a target that provides resistance. There are two types of `{{transliteration|ja|makiwara}}`{=mediawiki}: `{{nihongo||上げ巻藁|age-makiwara}}`{=mediawiki} (hung from the ceiling) and the more common `{{nihongo||立巻藁|tachi-makiwara}}`{=mediawiki} (secured in the ground). Of the `{{transliteration|ja|tachi-makiwara}}`{=mediawiki}, there are two variations: flat and round. The flat `{{transliteration|ja|makiwara}}`{=mediawiki} is a board mounted in the ground with some type of padding on the top. The practitioner stands in front of the `{{transliteration|ja|makiwara}}`{=mediawiki} and strikes the top. The round `{{transliteration|ja|ude-makiwara}}`{=mediawiki} has a similar construction, but is round on all sides. This allows additional techniques to be practiced. ### `{{transliteration|ja|Jari bako}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_7} The `{{nihongo3|"gravel/pebble box"|砂利箱|jari bako}}`{=mediawiki} is a box or bowl filled with smooth stones. Before this, the box is filled with sand, known as `{{nihongo||砂箱|suna bako}}`{=mediawiki}. At the beginning of this exercise, the box is filled with dry rice that is used by striking one\'s fingers into it. This conditions the fingers and fingertips. ### `{{transliteration|ja|Kongoken}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_8} The `{{transliteration|ja|kongoken}}`{=mediawiki} is a metal bar formed into an oval that can vary in weight and is used to condition the arms, legs, strengthen the wrists and core. This was used by wrestlers in Hawaii, and adopted into the `{{transliteration|ja|hojo undō}}`{=mediawiki} by Chojun Miyagi. ### `{{transliteration|ja|Tou}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_9} A `{{nihongo||とう|tou}}`{=mediawiki}, also known as `{{nihongo3|"bamboo bundle"|竹束|taketaba}}`{=mediawiki}, is simply a bundle of bamboo tied together either at both the top and bottom or tied in the middle. This is used similar to the `{{transliteration|ja|jari bako}}`{=mediawiki} by striking the fingers into it. In American Punk drumming culture, musicians have been known to perform a similar exercise with fiberglass splinters

# Plumbane **Plumbane** is an inorganic chemical compound with the chemical formula PbH`{{sub|4}}`{=mediawiki}. It is a colorless gas. It is a metal hydride and group 14 hydride composed of lead and hydrogen. Plumbane is not well characterized or well known, and it is thermodynamically unstable with respect to the loss of a hydrogen atom. Derivatives of plumbane include lead tetrachloride, PbCl`{{sub|4}}`{=mediawiki}, and tetraethyllead, (CH`{{sub|3}}`{=mediawiki}CH`{{sub|2}}`{=mediawiki})`{{sub|4}}`{=mediawiki}Pb. ## History Until recently, it was uncertain whether plumbane had ever actually been synthesized, although the first reports date back to the 1920s and in 1963, Saalfeld and Svec reported the observation of `{{chem|PbH|4|+}}`{=mediawiki} by mass spectrometry. Plumbane has repeatedly been the subject of Dirac--Hartree--Fock relativistic calculation studies, which investigate the stabilities, geometries, and relative energies of hydrides of the formula MH`{{sub|4}}`{=mediawiki} or MH`{{sub|2}}`{=mediawiki}. ## Properties Plumbane is an unstable colorless gas and is the heaviest group IV hydride; and has a tetrahedral (T`{{sub|d}}`{=mediawiki}) structure with an equilibrium distance between lead and hydrogen of 1.73 Å. By weight, plumbane is 1.91% hydrogen and 98.09% lead. In plumbane, the formal oxidation states of hydrogen and lead are +1 and −4, respectively, because the electronegativity of lead(IV) is higher than that of hydrogen. The stability of hydrides MH`{{sub|4}}`{=mediawiki} (M = C--Pb) decreases as the atomic number of M increases. ## Preparation Early studies of PbH`{{sub|4}}`{=mediawiki} revealed that the molecule is unstable as compared to its lighter congeners silane, germane, and stannane. It cannot be made by methods used to synthesize GeH`{{sub|4}}`{=mediawiki} or SnH`{{sub|4}}`{=mediawiki}. In 1999, plumbane was synthesized from lead(II) nitrate, Pb(NO`{{sub|3}}`{=mediawiki})`{{sub|2}}`{=mediawiki}, and sodium borohydride, NaBH`{{sub|4}}`{=mediawiki}. A non-nascent mechanism for plumbane synthesis was reported in 2005. In 2003, Wang and Andrews carefully studied the preparation of PbH`{{sub|4}}`{=mediawiki} by laser ablation and additionally identified the infrared (IR) bands

# Auditing Standards Board In the United States, the **Auditing Standards Board** (ASB) is the senior technical committee designated by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) to issue auditing, attestation, and quality control statements, standards and guidance to certified public accountants (CPAs) for non-public company audits. Created in October 1978, it is composed of 19 members representing various industries and sectors, including public accountants and private, educational, and governmental entities. It issues pronouncements in the form of statements, interpretations, and guidelines, which all CPAs must adhere to when performing audits and attestations. ## History ### Prior auditing standards and authorities {#prior_auditing_standards_and_authorities} The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants has issued guidance to accountants and auditors since 1917, when, at the behest of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and auspices of the Federal Reserve Board, it issued a series of pamphlets to the accounting community in regard to preparing financial statements and auditing (then referred to as \"verification\" and later \"examination\"). *Verification of Financial Statements*, the first pamphlet dedicated exclusively to providing guidance for audits, was issued in 1929. With its opening paragraph, the guidance provided one of the most fundamental principles in auditing, stating that \"the responsibility for the extent of the (audit) work required must be assumed by the auditor.\" In 1936 the AICPA revised its prior pronouncements and issued *Examination of Financial Statements by Independent Public Accountants*, which contained more detailed guidance on performing audit procedures for audits of small and mid-sized companies, while still emphasizing the need to perform the audit based on the nature of the client, its size, and its internal control structure, among other attributes. On January 30, 1939, the Committee on Auditing Procedure was formed by the AICPA to evaluate, discuss, and issue guidance exclusively on auditing-related matters. This Committee is considered the antecessor of the Auditing Standards Board, and was the first to issue Statements on auditing standards and principles to the public accounting community. In 1941 it issued a pamphlet titled *Statements on Auditing Procedure*, which discussed the auditor's responsibility in applying judgment in audits. It was followed by a series of numbered pronouncements called *Statements on Auditing Procedures*, or SAP (the antecessors of Statements on Auditing Standards), issued between 1939 up to the early 1970s for a total of 54 SAP pronouncements. During that time, the Securities Exchange Commission required public accountants to include a representation in their independent audit reports that the audit was performed in compliance with generally accepted auditing standards, and the Committee issued a booklet titled *Generally Accepted Auditing Standards---Their Significance and Scope* to adopt the SEC's requirement. In 1963, the Committee issued *Statement on Auditing Procedure No. 33* to consolidate and replace various pronouncements issued between 1949 and 1963, including pamphlets and statements. In 1972, the AICPA implemented significant changes to its standard-setting practices by consolidating all auditing pronouncements up to that date under Statements on Auditing Standards (SAS), and gave the Committee the title of senior technical committee on auditing matters while changing its name to Auditing Standards Executive Committee. From 1972 through 1978 the Executive Committee issued SAS as the authoritative guidelines and rules for auditing, issuing a total of 23 SAS. ### Creation of the ASB {#creation_of_the_asb} In October 1978, following extensive studies by the AICPA and its sub-committees, its governing council established the Auditing Standards Board as the maximum authoritative body in establishing GAAS, thereby consolidating and replacing all previous senior technical committees. It required all AICPA members and public accountants to adhere to the ASB's pronouncements in relation to audit, attestation, and quality control. The ASB would now define auditor responsibilities and provide guidance to allow them to accomplish work and emit a report, among others. ### Sarbanes--Oxley and the PCAOB {#sarbanesoxley_and_the_pcaob} The Sarbanes--Oxley Act of 2002, as amended by the Dodd--Frank Act, changed the hierarchy of generally accepted auditing principles and standards. The legislation established that the new Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) and the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) now had final authority over auditing regulation and public-auditor professional-practices standards for audits of public companies, also referred to as \"issuers\". Public accountants and firms who audit public companies were required to register with the PCAOB and follow all standards, principles, rules, and interpretations issued by the PCAOB in regard to public company audits and audit reports, as well as attestation and quality control. The PCAOB adopted the ASB\'s auditing and attest standards as its temporary auditing rules in 2003. The AICPA subsequently changed the designation of the leading GAAS-setting authority in February 2004. It designated the PCAOB as the authoritative body for GAAS related to public companies, while the ASB was designated for non-public companies.

Renee Rampulla Rampulla Advisory Services, LLC Jeffrey Rapaglia FORVIS LLP Chris Rogers Infragistics Michael Schmitz Schmitz-Holmstrom, LLP Tania Sergott Deloitte & Touche LLP : Current Board Members The Auditing Standards Board consists of 19 members (see table for current Board members), each nominated by the Director of the AICPA Audit and Attest Standards Staff and approved by the AICPA Board of Directors. The Board has a Chairman to direct Board meetings and to establish procedures, sub-committees, and perform other similar tasks in conjunction with the Director. To assure that the different industries and sectors are represented, the AICPA has reserved nominations for different industry segments as part of its operating policies: - 5 seats for public accounting firms at a local, regional or national level, but are not considered part of the \"Big Four\" accounting firms. - 4 seats for Big Four accounting firms - 5 seats for representatives of the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA), including current and former members of State boards of accountancy. - 5 seats for other public accountants, members of the AICPA, and financial statement users (i.e. private industry). The AICPA typically reserves one of these for a person within the academic community and another for a government official, government auditor, or similar representative. Board members serve a one-year term, after which they are evaluated by the AICPA for their performance, and can then be re-appointed for up to 3 one-year terms, or dismissed by the AICPA. The AICPA may extend the term of service if, for example, the member is working on a long-term project and the AICPA believes that such participation is crucial for the completion of the project.

# Auditing Standards Board ## ASB Meetings {#asb_meetings} ASB proposed pronouncements are discussed within the ASB membership, the AICPA and with the general public. The ASB meets periodically to discuss auditing issues and prepare and draft pronouncement proposals, and occasionally holds public hearings. The meetings are considered informal (no set of formal rules) to encourage open deliberation between its members,. Matters which affect public interest, such as proposals of new SAS, are open to the public. The meetings and hearings are established by the ASB Chair, with public notices and meeting highlights and summaries printed in *The CPA Letter*, and on the AICPA website. A quorum comprises the majority of ASB members or their representatives, and other members of the AICPA are usually invited also. Proposed pronouncements are discussed in the ASB meetings, and the board members must vote before to issuing a draft proposal (called an \"exposure draft\") or the final version to the public with two-thirds of ASB members in favor. The voting results are included in the meeting highlights published, and any ASB member who dissents from issuing a pronouncement may request that the reasons for dissenting be included in the exposure draft or final pronouncement

# Aaron Wallace **Aaron Wallace** (born April 17, 1967) is an American former professional football player who played his entire career as a linebacker for the Raiders franchise of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football for the Texas A&M Aggies. Wallace attended Dallas Franklin D. Roosevelt High School (Dallas) where he was a teammate of future NFL players Richmond Webb and Kevin Williams. While at Texas A&M from 1986 to 1989, Wallace accumulated 42 sacks for his career, which still rank him 1st all-time at Texas A&M. The 42 sacks also ranked him 7th all-time in the NCAA at the conclusion of his career and currently rank him 11th. Wallace was selected by the Raiders in the second round of the 1990 NFL Draft. Wallace played eight seasons for the Raiders, compiling 155 tackles and 21 sacks. He retired in 1999 and did some work in real estate. He later returned to Texas A&M to earn his degree in agricultural and life sciences in 2002. Wallace began his coaching career at Sunset High School, where he coached the defensive line for four seasons. He then served at H. Grady Spruce High School in 2007, the last season Spruce fielded athletic teams. After Spruce\'s disbandment of its sports squads, he moved to Emmett J. Conrad High School, though he discontinued coaching. He stopped coaching since he desired more time to see his son play football in San Diego. His son, Aaron Wallace Jr., played for the UCLA Bruins and was drafted in the 7th round of the 2016 NFL draft by the Tennessee Titans. Wallace was inducted into the Texas Black Sports Hall of Fame in 2008

# Riganokampos **Riganokampos** (*Ριγανόκαμπος*, meaning \"plain where oregano grows\") is a neighbourhood in the eastern part of the city of Patras by the foot of the Panachaiko mountains. Riganokampos is located east of the A5 Patras Bypass. Close by are the villages of Elekistra and Neo Souli. ## History During the Byzantine period, a stauropegic church dedicated to Saint Irene was built in the area, to house the body of the saint. On 5 March 1231, during the Frankish rule, the Latin archbishop of Patras, Antelm of Cluny, moved the relic to the Monastery of Hautecombe in Savoy. The relic was returned on 5 October 2002 and is housed in a new church dedicated to the saint, on the same site as the medieval church

# Christian de Bonchamps The **Marquis Christian de Bonchamps** (15 June 1860 -- 9 December 1919) was a French explorer in Africa and a colonial officer in the French Empire during the late 19th- early 20th-century epoch known as the \"Scramble for Africa\", who played an important role in two of the more notorious incidents of the period. ## The Stairs Expedition {#the_stairs_expedition} De Bonchamps served as a cavalry officer in France and then spent several seasons in North America, hunting in the Rocky Mountains. In 1891 he was appointed third officer of the Stairs Expedition which aimed to take possession of Katanga in Central Africa for the Belgian King Leopold II, with or without the consent of its king, Msiri. When treaty negotiations with Msiri reached a stalemate, de Bonchamps proposed capturing Msiri and holding him hostage. Msiri typically had 300 armed warriors at his stockade, but de Bonchamps had discovered that every night, he would leave with just a handful of guards to visit his favorite wife, Maria de Fonseca, at her compound nearly two miles away. Captain Stairs rejected the idea of the ambush in favour of an ultimatum, and this led to a confrontation in which Captain Omer Bodson shot Msiri dead. De Bonchamps was the first of the other officers to reach the scene of the shooting, and it fell to him to restore order in the chaos and to evacuate the wounded, including the dying Bodson after he had been shot in turn by one of Msiri\'s men. In the aftermath, de Bonchamps and most of the expedition was incapacitated by disease and starvation. Once relieved by another expedition, they suffered hardships and starvation on the return journey to Zanzibar. De Bonchamps was in command of the expedition when Stairs was ill and after he died on the Zambezi. Only half of the expedition\'s total of 405 men survived. After returning to Paris, de Bonchamps gave his journal to writer Léon Delmas who, using the pseudonym René du Pont-Jest, published in the 1892-93 issues of the magazine *Tour du Monde* (*World Tour*), an account of the events, entitled *L\'Expédition du Katanga*. In this magazine narrative, de Bonchamps revealed that the expedition had cut off Msiri\'s head and hoisted it on a pole in plain view as a \"barbaric lesson\" to his people, a fact which the English account by Joseph Moloney omitted.

# Christian de Bonchamps ## The Fashoda Incident {#the_fashoda_incident} In 1897 de Bonchamps was appointed to lead a mission from Djibouti across Ethiopia to the River Nile at Fashoda in southern Sudan, to converge with the expedition of Major Jean-Baptiste Marchand coming from Brazzaville with orders to secure the area around Fashoda as a French protectorate. The ultimate objective was an ambitious plan on the part of French government to establish an axis of French colonies across the continent from east to west, Dakar to Djibouti, in competition with the British Empire\'s Cape to Cairo vision of British colonies across the continent from north to south. Ethiopia, one of only two independent nations on the continent at that time, stood in the way of a French route, but its ruler Menelik II was friendly towards the French and they understood he would grant them passage. The Ethiopian Highlands were too great an obstacle, however, and the de Bonchamps Expedition suffered accidents and attacks from hostile tribesmen. In addition, although Menelik II was helpful up to a point, he ordered a halt to the expedition in December 1897. The Marchand Expedition reached Fashoda in July 1898, but the de Bonchamps Expedition was unable to complete the journey. In September, the Marchand Expedition was confronted by a British flotilla on the Nile leading to the Fashoda Incident, which eventually resulted in a diplomatic defeat for France and the withdrawal of the Marchand Expedition. In 1892, upon returning from the Stairs Expedition, which achieved its objectives for the Belgian king, de Bonchamps said he regretted that his suffering had not been for France. Five years later, provided with a similar opportunity, but different circumstances, to serve his country, his mission was ultimately unsuccessful. ## Death De Bonchamps died in Paris in 1919, age 59

The cookies are light golden color and studded with golden pine nuts (*pinoli* in Italian). Made with almond paste and egg whites, they are moist, soft and chewy. *Pinolate* are a popular Italian holiday treat, especially at Christmas. Because both almond paste and pine nuts are relatively expensive and these cookies use substantial amounts of both, it is a luxury food.

# Ebby Edwards **Ebenezer Edwards** (30 July 1884 -- 6 July 1961) was a trade unionist and politician in Britain. ## Early life {#early_life} Born in Chevington, near Broomhill, Northumberland, Edwards went down the coal mine at the age of 12. In 1906, he joined the Independent Labour Party, although he left after three years. In 1908, he attended Ruskin College in Oxford for ten months, but had to leave due to a lack of finances. After leaving the course, he became an early member of the Plebs\' League and began to espouse Marxism. ## Later life {#later_life} Edwards continued working as a miner during World War I. A supporter of Robert Smillie, he opposed the war. He narrowly missed election to Parliament at the 1918 Wansbeck by-election, standing as a local Labour Party candidate, losing to Robert Mason. He lost in Wansbeck again at the 1918 general election. Long active in the Miners\' Federation of Great Britain (MFGB), Edwards was elected to increasingly important posts in the union. In 1929, he was finally elected to Parliament, as the Labour MP for Morpeth, succeeding Smillie, but lost his seat at the 1931 election. Elected as vice-president of the MFGB in 1929, he became president in 1931 and secretary in 1932. He also served in various posts at the Miners\' International Federation. In 1945, he attended the World Trade Union Conference in London alongside many renowned trade unionists. Edwards supported the MFGB\'s reconstitution as the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM), and became the NUM\'s first secretary in 1945, but stepped down the following year to serve on the National Coal Board, keeping this post until 1953

# 414 Electronic Warfare Support Squadron **414 Electronic Warfare Support Squadron** is a unit of the Royal Canadian Air Force. It is in Ottawa and conducts electronic warfare support training for other units in the Canadian Armed Forces. ## History ### World War II {#world_war_ii} On 13 August 1941, No 414 Army Co-operation Squadron was formed at RAF Croydon, England, flying Westland Lysander and Curtiss Tomahawk aircraft. On 28 June 1943 the squadron\'s name was changed to 414 Fighter Reconnaissance Squadron to reflect its role, and later known as 414 "City of Sarnia" Squadron (Sarnia Imperials). Throughout the Second World War the squadron was based at numerous airfields in England and in continentental Europe flying Supermarine Spitfire and North American Mustang aircraft. During this period, the squadron provided photo reconnaissance, intelligence and ground attacks for both the Dieppe Raid and the allied Invasion of Europe. It accounted for 29 enemy aircraft destroyed and 11 damaged, 76 locomotives and 12 naval vessels destroyed. After the war ended, the squadron disbanded at Lüneburg Airfield (Advanced Landing Ground B156), Germany on 7 August 1945. ### Postwar On 1 April 1947, No 414 Photographic Squadron was reformed at RCAF Station Rockcliffe. The squadron used the Douglas Dakota to photograph 323754 sqmi of Canada\'s North. When this task was completed it was disbanded on 1 November 1950. On 1 November 1952 No 414 Fighter Squadron reformed at RCAF Station Bagotville. The following summer on 24 August 1953 as part of \"Leap Frog IV\" the squadron moved to 4 Wing Baden-Soellingen flying the Canadair Mark.4 Sabre. Four years later on 14 July 1957 the squadron disbanded to make room for the arrival of 419 Squadron flying the Avro Canada CF-100. On 5 August 1957, the squadron reformed at RCAF Station North Bay where it operated as an all-weather fighter squadron flying the CF-100 Canuck and the McDonnell CF-101 Voodoo until 30 June 1964 when it was disbanded once more. The squadron then reformed on 15 September 1967 at RCAF Station St Hubert in its new role as an electronic warfare squadron flying the CF-100. In August 1972 the squadron moved to CFB North Bay where it remained for the next twenty years flying the CF-100, Dassault CC-117 Falcon and McDonnell EF-101B \"Electric Voodoo\". In 1992 the squadron was split into two parts with one part going to CFB Comox as No 414 Composite Squadron and the other part going to CFB Greenwood as 434 Composite Squadron. In 1993 the squadron changed its name to No 414 Combat Support Squadron when it was equipped with the Canadair CT-133 Silver Star. The squadron was disbanded in 2002 when its duties were contracted out to a civilian company. On 7 December 2007 approval was received for the squadron to stand up once more, this time as 414 EWS (Electronic Warfare Support) Squadron. Belonging to the RCAF Aerospace Warfare Centre, the squadron is based in Ottawa and is composed of military Electronic Warfare Officers who fulfill the combat support role, flying on civilian contracted aircraft. The squadron was re-formed at Gatineau Airport, Quebec, on 20 January 2009 to operate the Dassault/Dornier Alpha Jet provided by Top Aces Canada. ## Badges Image:RCAF 414 Sqn in felt, 1957-67.jpg\|RCAF 414 Sqn in felt, 1957--67 Image:CF100Crest

# More Sideways Arithmetic from Wayside School ***More Sideways Arithmetic From Wayside School*** is a children\'s novel by Louis Sachar in the *Wayside School* series. Like *Sideways Arithmetic From Wayside School* before it, the book resembles more like a puzzle book with a Wayside theme than a novel about Wayside. According to the book\'s introduction, it was created as a response to *Sideways Arithmetic* after receiving complaints by students and teachers over the inclusion of the logic puzzles in the story. Like its predecessor, *More Sideways Arithmetic* is organized into 15 chapters, each of which features a number of mathematical and logical puzzles, with 58 puzzles in the book. In addition to the hints (partial solutions) and answers provided, *More Sideways Arithmetic* also includes \"clues\" (not present in *Sideways Arithmetic*), which aid the reader in solving the various logical puzzles. ## Plot In the first chapter, Allison invites Jason, Stephen and all the girls in class to her birthday party. She says when two or more boys are together, they start acting really silly. This is proven when Joe and John come by and indeed act silly, they don\'t admit it until Mrs. Jewls writes the situation as an arithmetic problem (boys + boys = silly). The girls are excited about this, until they are told that the same thing goes for girls. The next chapter simply involves Mrs. Jewls being unable to say bras because it\'s \"crass\". After that, Sue gets a new dog called Fangs, Calvin saying the dog sounds mean. When presented, Mrs. Jewls uses arithmetic (good + dog = fangs) to prove that Fangs the dog is nice. Next, some of the boys complain about them being too hot, saying \"too\" more times the hotter they are. Later, Miss Worm, the teacher who teaches on the story just below Mrs. Jewls\'s, complains about the excitementic arithmetic is causing in the class. Miss Worm is basically what Sue was like in the last arithmetic book. Later, Mrs. Jewls announces there will be a pop quiz next week. She won\'t tell the day, but they\'ll know when she tells them to take out their pencils. Todd then says that if she doesn\'t tell them on Thursday, they\'ll know the quiz will be on Friday. The other students play along with the other days, in a variation of the unexpected hanging paradox until Mrs. Jewls tells them to forget the whole thing. Then, the school flagpole was struck by lightning. So Mrs. Jewls\'s class makes a vote on which should be the new size. Unfortunately, the kids keep wanting more votes with the second most votes, something like a tetherball game. Ultimately, Kathy is always on the side that wins, so her size gets to be the size of the new flagpole

# Lola B2K/10 The **Lola B2K/10** was a Le Mans Prototype developed in 2000 by Lola Cars International for use in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, American Le Mans Series, Grand American Road Racing Championship, and Sports Racing World Cup. It was a replacement for the previous Lola B98/10 and shared some elements with its smaller variant, the Lola B2K/40. ## Development More an evolution of the B98/10 than an all new car, the B2K/10 shared many design elements, most notably at the front end of the car. The unusual fenders and headlights remained, while the nose had been raised in order to accommodate a higher footbox. However, unlike other prototypes which usually had the nose come to a point to allow for an air intake, the B2K/10\'s nose merely stopped where the footbox ended, leaving a large vertical protrusion. Inside of this, a third headlight was mounted for better visibility in endurance races. Part of the reasoning behind not creating an intake in the nose was due to the decision to draw all the cooling air for the car from underneath. However, this design suffered from problems due to ambient track temperature, a problem that had similarly plagued the BMW V12 LM in 1998. The large air intake mounted underneath the rollbar of the B98/10 could also be removed, although not all cars did this. If removed, the intakes were relocated to small nacelles to the side of the cockpit, allowing for a cleaner flow of air to the rear wing from underneath the rollbar. The sides were radically changed, with large openings between the sidepod and cockpit allowing air over the nose to escape out the side of the car. The radiator intakes on the side, which were partially fed from the air channeled away from the nose, were also larger than those on the B98/10. Lola remained with the same engine as the B98/10s, a Roush Racing-designed Ford 6.0 Litre V8. However, as before, a wide variety of other engines were chosen by teams for use, including the Judd GV4 V10 and a Porsche twin-turbocharged Flat-6. Only six B2K/10s were built.

# Lola B2K/10 ## Racing history {#racing_history} In early 2000, the first three B2K/10s were delivered to customers, with Team Rafanelli receiving a Judd-powered chassis, Philip Creighton Motorsport a Ford-powered chassis, and Champion Racing a Porsche-powered chassis. While Creighton Motorsport\'s chassis was not quite ready, the other two teams made their debut at the 12 Hours of Sebring. However, neither car finished, with Champion suffering a suspension failure in the closing hours and Rafanelli dropping out early on. While Rafanelli and Champion remained in the American Le Mans Series, they were later joined by Intersport Racing, who added a Judd-powered B2K/10 alongside their B98/10 for a two-car team. Rafanelli took the best result of the season, a third at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Creighton Motorsports went to the Grand American Road Racing Championship, scoring a best finish of second at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course, although Intersport also took a second at Watkins Glen International during a brief appearance in the series. Meanwhile, Konrad Motorsport purchased another chassis, keeping with a Ford powerplant, and run the Sports Racing World Cup late in the season, replacing their B98/10. The car scored points in a single race at the Nürburgring, finishing third. Finally, for the 2000 24 Hours of Le Mans, Rafanelli and Konrad entered their chassis, yet neither car managed to finish. For 2001, there were adjustments in the teams, with Intersport being the only one to remain in the same position as 2000, staying in the American Le Mans Series while running a select number of Grand American Road Racing Championship races.. Champion Racing moved permanently to the GARRC, while Rafanelli bought a Ferrari 550 Maranello. Konrad Racing moved to concentrating on grand tourer racing, making only a select few appearances with their car. Philip Creighton Motorsport ran the 24 Hours of Daytona only before dropping out. This season, the B2K/10 scored its first victory in GARRC at Phoenix International Raceway for Intersport Racing, followed by a second win at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. By 2002, the B2K/10\'s design flaws were leaving it farther behind the competition. Intersport continued in both the ALMS and GARRC running two chassis, while Pegasus Racing purchased Champion Racings Porsche-powered B2K/10 for GARRC. These were the only teams racing the B2K/10 for that season, with Intersport having a best result of second at Homestead-Miami Speedway for GARRC. However, for 2003, the B2K/10 saw a resurgence. Intersport concentrated solely on the American Le Mans Series while newcomer Taurus Sports Racing entered the FIA Sportscar Championship with the former Rafanelli car, as well as select ALMS events. Taurus Sports Racing scored the best result of the year, a third at Autodromo Nazionale Monza. Finally, in 2004 the B2K/10 saw its final competition. After a disappointing failure to finish at the 12 Hours of Sebring, Taurus Sports Racing set out to bring diesel technology back to the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Besides the normal Judd-powered B2K/10, Taurus added a second chassis powered by a Caterpillar-tuned Volkswagen twin turbocharged V10 engine. First attempting to run the opening Le Mans Endurance Series race at Monza, the team came to Le Mans believing that the diesel be a match for current competitors. However, the torque of the engine destroyed the diesel-powered B2K/10\'s gearbox after a mere 35 laps. The team\'s other, gasoline-powered B2K/10 finished the race, taking 20th place. Following one final appearance by the diesel-powered car at Silverstone Circuit which led to a failure, the final active B2K/10 was retired from competition. The B2K/10 was partially replaced by the Lola B01/60 (MG-Lola EX257) in 2001 before being fully replaced by the Lola B06/10 in 2006. ## Chassis history {#chassis_history} A total of six B2K/10s were constructed in 2000, running competitively until 2004

# Order of Quetzalcoatl `{{Freemasonry}}`{=mediawiki} The **Order of Quetzalcoatl**, colloquially known as the \"Q" is a Masonic appendant invitational body. It is heavily involved in philanthropy, and its main contribution is towards transportation funds for Shriners hospitals. The Order, which was founded in Mexico City on March 14, 1945 by Arthur J. Elian, takes its name from the Aztec god Quetzalcoatl. Its chapters (called *Teocallis*, Nahuatl for \"house of god\") are located in the United States, Canada, Mexico, and Panama. All members of the Order, called Artisans, must be Shriners in good standing in their Shrine Temples. The Order derives its terminology from Nahuatl, and its rituals are *loosely* based on Aztec ritual, including the use of the teponaztli war drum and the sacred drink, pulque. ## Organization The Order is organized into local Teocallis, which are relatively autonomous and united under the Supreme Teocalli. Membership is by invitation only and is based on distinguished service to the Shrine Temples. ## Myth and Symbolism {#myth_and_symbolism} Quetzalcoatl is often depicted as a feathered serpent with an open jaw, bifid tongue, and articulated spinal column. This iconic representation can be found on ancient monuments throughout Mexico. The name \"Quetzalcoatl\" originates from \"Quetzal,\" a rare bird with green feathers, and \"Coatl,\" meaning serpent. The quetzal bird was considered one of the most beautiful, and Quetzalcoatl is symbolized by the plumed serpent. ## Rituals and Degrees {#rituals_and_degrees} The Order of Quetzalcoatl conducts rituals divided into three parts: Initiation (Artisan degree), Consecration (Master Artisan degree), and a pilgrimage to Mexican pyramids for consecration. These rituals combine instructive and symbolic elements, enhancing the member\'s experience. A candidate becomes a Coate when he is initiated into the order. Then he becomes an Artisan through a ritual ceremony. He may then advance to Master Artisan either through consecration ceremonies at the order's annual business meeting (called a Feast of Fire) or through traveling to either the Temple of Quetzalcoatl at Teotihuacan in Mexico City or Chichen Itza near Cancún. ## Philanthropy The Order supports philanthropic activities, with a particular focus on transportation funds for Shrine Hospitals for Children. The organization emphasizes combining fun and fellowship with a purpose

# National Fallen Firefighters Memorial The **National Fallen Firefighters Memorial** is a memorial to career and volunteer firefighters who died in the line of duty. Located in Emmitsburg, Maryland, it was conceived as a tribute to American fire service. The memorial was constructed in 1981 on the campus of the National Fire Academy, and was designated a National Memorial by the United States Congress in 1990. Plaques listing the names of firefighters encircle the plaza. When a firefighter dies on duty, local fire officials notify the United States Fire Administration and a notice is immediately posted on the memorial grounds. The flags over the memorial are flown at half-staff in honor of the fallen firefighter. If some criteria are met, the fallen firefighter is honored at the annual memorial service. The memorial is open to the public throughout the year. On October 16, 2001, President George W. Bush approved legislation requiring the United States flag to be lowered to half-staff on all federal buildings to memorialize fallen firefighters. Public Law 107-51 requires this action to occur annually in conjunction with observance of the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Service.`{{secondary source needed|date=February 2024}}`{=mediawiki} The dates of the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Weekend is now the first weekend in May as of 2023. A candlelight vigil service is held the night before the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial Service. Both services are held at the National Fallen Firefighters Memorial. These services memorialize fallen firefighters from around the nation

# Betty Go-Belmonte station **Betty Go-Belmonte station** is an elevated Light Rail Transit (LRT) station located on the LRT Line 2 (LRT-2) system in Mariana, Quezon City. The station during its inception was formerly called as **Boston station**, after the adjacent street of the same name, but was renamed into the current name due to the minor realignment of some stations (the other being V. Mapa) that has caused the change of proximity to the Betty Go-Belmonte Street. It is named after Betty Go-Belmonte, the founder of The Philippine Star and wife of House Speaker Feliciano Belmonte Jr.. The station is the seventh station for trains headed to both Antipolo and Recto stations. It is considered to be one of the least busiest stations on the line. ## Nearby landmarks {#nearby_landmarks} The station is located near Cubao Cathedral, Holy Buddhist Temple, Religious of the Virgin Mary Motherhouse, and Kalayaan College. ## Transportation links {#transportation_links} There are tricycles, jeepneys, taxis, and buses are available outside the station

# Sosicrates **Sosicrates of Rhodes** (*Σωσικράτης ὁ Ῥόδιος*; `{{fl.|{{circa}} 180 BC}}`{=mediawiki}) was a Greek historical writer. He was born on the island of Rhodes and is noted, chiefly, for his frequent mention by Diogenes Laërtius in his *Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers*, referencing Sosicrates as the sole authority behind such facts as Aristippus having written nothing. It is inferred that Sosicrates flourished after Hermippus and before Apollodorus of Athens, and, therefore, sometime between 200 and 128 BC. Sosicrates is claimed to have penned A *Succession of Philosophers*, quoted by both Athenaeus and Diogenes Laërtius. Sosicrates also composed a work on the history of Crete, though neither of the aforementioned works has survived

He has been nominated ten times for the Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance, winning in 2018, 2019, 2023, and 2025. He has won numerous awards and is recognized as one of the leading commissioners of new music in the United States. ## Early life and education {#early_life_and_education} Nally was born in Hilltown, Pennsylvania, and educated at the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music (BM, music education), Westminster Choir College (MM, choral conducting), and the University of Illinois (DMA, choral conducting). In 2019, he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Humanities from Westminster Choir College of Rider University. He has been Artist in Residence at Washington and Lee University and Shorter University, has been on the faculty of the University of Illinois, and has been guest lecturer at Indiana University and the College-Conservatory of Music at the University of Cincinnati. ## Professional life {#professional_life} Nally's first professional chamber choir was The Bridge Ensemble which sang concerts 1996-1997; though it failed financially, it established a significant presence in Philadelphia, receiving a great amount of critical attention and laying the groundwork for the success of The Crossing. From 1998 to 2002, he was Artistic Director of the Choral Arts Society of Philadelphia, during which time the chorus received Chorus America's 2002 Margaret Hillis National Award for Excellence and was chosen as "The Best of Philadelphia" by *Philadelphia Magazine*. At the end of 2002, Nally left Philadelphia and moved to Wales to become the chorus master at Welsh National Opera. In 2006, Nally returned to the United States to become the chorus master for the Lyric Opera of Chicago. Nally has guest conducted the Swedish Radio Choir, the Latvian State Choir, the Grant Park Symphony Chorus, and the Santa Fe Desert Chorale; he has prepared choirs for the New York Philharmonic, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Philharmonia Orchestra, the BBC Symphony Orchestra, the Philadelphia Orchestra (including the world premiere of Hannibal's *One Heart Beating*), the Pennsylvania Ballet, the Illinois Symphony Orchestra, and Spoleto USA. Nally collaborates often on living-art installations with the artists Allora & Calzadilla, with scores by David Lang, which have been staged in Frankfurt, Osaka, Edmonton, Cleveland, Córdoba, London, Philadelphia, and Houston. He was music director for Lang\'s *The Mile-Long Opera*, overseeing a thousand singers on The High Line in Manhattan. ### The Crossing {#the_crossing} The ensemble began in 2005 when Nally and a group of friends sang an informal concert together. At the end of the 2010-11 season, Nally left Lyric Opera of Chicago and moved back to Philadelphia to focus on his Philadelphia ensemble, The Crossing, which specializes in contemporary works. It has received numerous awards, including the Chorus America/ASCAP Award for Adventurous Programming (2009, 2011 & 2017), the American Composers Forum 2017 Champion of New Music Award, the 2018 Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance, and the 2019 Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance. ### Northwestern University {#northwestern_university} In September 2012, Nally joined the faculty of the Bienen School of Music at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois as a tenured professor and director of choral organizations. He was appointed following the retirement of longtime professor Dr. Robert A. Harris, who held the position for the 35 years previous to Nally\'s appointment. Upon arriving in Evanston in the fall of 2012 Nally founded the chamber choir BCE, a premier group of 26 singers dedicated to performing choral music of the 21st century and drawing relationships to its polyphonic roots in early music -- primarily that of the Renaissance. The ensemble has sung several times on the Chicago Symphony Orchestra MusicNOW series and appeared at both of Chicago\'s Ear Taxi festivals. In 2013, Nally rehearsed Howard Hanson\'s *Song of Democracy,* which sets texts from various poems of Walt Whitman. An African American student objected to performing the work because he claimed Whitman was racist. Nally told the student he would receive a failing grade if he did not perform the work. The student claimed that a failing grade would have led to the loss of his scholarship. ### Westminster Choir College {#westminster_choir_college} In 2022, Nally became an artist in residence at Westminster Choir College, the school of music of Rider University, in Lawrenceville, NJ. In 2024, he joined the full time faculty as a member of the Performance Studies Department, and in January, 2025, he was named Director of Choral Studies for Westminster. In that capacity, he conducts both the Westminster Choir and the Westminster Symphonic Choir as well as teaching the Choral Conducting graduate students. ## Awards and distinctions {#awards_and_distinctions} - 2025 Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance for Ochre (The Crossing) - 2024 Nomination Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance for Carols After a Plague (The Crossing) - 2023 Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance for *Born (The Crossing)* - 2022 Nomination Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance for *Rising w/ The Crossing* (The Crossing) - 2021 Nomination Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance for *Carthage* (The Crossing) - 2020 Nomination Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance for *The Arc in the Sky* (The Crossing) - 2020 Nomination Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance for *Voyages* (The Crossing) - 2019 Honorary Doctorate, Rider University - 2019 Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance for *Zealot Canticles* (The Crossing) - 2018 Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance for *The Fifth Century* (The Crossing) - 2017 Champion of New Music Award with The Crossing from American Composers Forum - 2017 Michael Korn Founders Award for Development of the Professional Choral Art from [Chorus America](https://www.chorusamerica.org/awards/michael-korn-founders-award-development-professional-choral-art) - 2017 Nomination Grammy Award for Best Choral Performance for *Bonhoeffer* (The Crossing) - 2012 Louis Botto Award for Innovative Action and Entrepreneurial Zeal from Chorus America - 2002 & 2015 Margaret Hillis National Award for Excellence in Choral Music (Choral Arts Society of Philadelphia, 2002 and The Crossing, 2015)

# Vamsi Mootha **Vamsi K. Mootha** is an Indian-born American physician--scientist and computational biologist. He is an Investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Professor of Systems Biology and Medicine at Harvard Medical School, Investigator in the Department of Molecular Biology at Massachusetts General Hospital. He is also an Institute Member of the Broad Institute. Mootha and his research group have made major contributions to mitochondrial biology and genomics. His group characterized the mammalian mitochondrial proteome and has produced a widely utilized reference protein atlas called MitoCarta. He and his clinical collaborators pioneered the use of targeted next-generation sequencing of these proteins to identify the Mendelian genetic basis of a very large number of mitochondrial disorders. His team used \"integrative genomics\" to identify all of the molecular components of the mitochondrial calcium uniporter, a key channel of communication between the organelle and the rest of the cell. His team used genomics to make the unexpected discovery that in animal models, low oxygen can alleviate mitochondrial disease. As a postdoctoral fellow he developed Gene Set Enrichment Analysis, an algorithm that is widely used in genomics and has been implemented into a popular software tool. Mootha graduated from Kelly High School in Beaumont, Texas. As a high school student he won first place in the mathematics category of the International Science and Engineering Fair. He received his BS in Mathematical and Computational Science from Stanford University and his M.D. from Harvard University in the Harvard--MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology. He completed his internship and residency in internal medicine at Brigham and Women\'s Hospital in Boston, and then pursued postdoctoral training with Eric Lander at the Whitehead Institute/MIT Center for Genome Research.

# Huehue Zaca **Huehue Zaca** or **Çaca** (`{{IPA|nah|ˈweːweʔ ˈsaka}}`{=mediawiki}), also **Zacatzin** (*Çacatzin*, `{{IPA|[saˈkatsiːn]}}`{=mediawiki}), was a 15th-century Aztec noble, prince and a warrior who served as *tlacateccatl* (\"captain general\") under the ruler Moctezuma I, his brother. The name of Zaca is probably derived from Nahuatl *zacatl*, meaning \"grass\"; *-tzin* is an honorific or reverential suffix. *Huehue* is Nahuatl for \"the elder\", literally \"old man\". ## Family Zaca was the fourth child of Emperor Huitzilihuitl. His mother was Princess Miyahuaxochtzin, the daughter of Tlacacuitlahuatzin, ruler of Tiliuhcan. He was the younger half-brother of Emperors Chimalpopoca and Moctezuma I. His other brother was prince Tlacaelel. Moctezuma is said to have had Zaca executed for singing and beating his drum loudly. Zaca had two sons: Tzontemoc, who served as *tlacateccatl* under Moctezuma\'s successors Axayacatl and Tizoc; and Huitzilatzin, who was installed by Axayacatl as the first ruler of Huitzilopochco (now known as Churubusco), a city near Chalco whose inhabitants are said to have been cannibals prior to the imposition of Aztec government. A descendant of Zaca through his son Huitzilatzin, Hernando Huehue Cetochtzin, was taken along with many other indigenous nobles (notably Cuauhtemoc) on conquistador Hernán Cortés\'s expedition to Honduras (Huey Mollan), during which he died

She was born in Pittsburgh and perhaps best known for her portrayal of Mother Nature in a series of 30-second Chiffon margarine commercials from 1971 to 1979. ## Career On television, Dietrich portrayed Grace Peterson in *Adam\'s Rib*, Dena Madison in *Karen*,`{{r|etvs|page1=555}}`{=mediawiki} Estelle Milner in *Paul Sand in Friends and Lovers*,`{{r|etvs|page1=818}}`{=mediawiki} Molly Gibbons in *The Practice*`{{r|etvs|page1=850}}`{=mediawiki} Ethel Armbrewster in *The Ropers*,`{{r|etvs|page1=910}}`{=mediawiki} and Pearl Newman in *13 East*.`{{r|etvs|page1=1072}}`{=mediawiki} Her other television credits include recurring roles on *Life with Lucy*, *Santa Barbara*, *All My Children* and *Philly*. She made guest appearances on *Emergency!*, *Life Goes On*, *NYPD Blue*, *Murphy Brown*, and *The Golden Girls* (as Dorothy\'s sister Gloria). Dietrich appeared in such films as *The Wild Party* (1975), Disney\'s *The North Avenue Irregulars* (1979) and the Mel Brooks film *History of the World, Part I* (1981). She appeared on Broadway in *The Rimers of Eldritch*, *Here\'s Where I Belong*, and *The Prisoner of Second Avenue*. Outside of film and television, Dietrich provided the voice of the grandmother narrator on the dark ride attraction Horizons at Epcot in Walt Disney World from 1983 until 1999. She studied acting at HB Studio. ### Mother Nature {#mother_nature} Dietrich was perhaps best known for her portrayal of Mother Nature in the 30-second Chiffon margarine commercials in the 1970s (1971--79). Dressed in a gown of white and adorned with a crown of daisies, Mother Nature is seen sampling what she believes is butter, straight from nature. An unseen narrator (Mason Adams) informs her \"That\'s Chiffon Margarine, not butter.\" A perplexed Mother Nature replies that it would be impossible for it to be margarine because it tastes too much like real butter; the narrator responds in delight that the margarine is indeed so close to real butter that it could fool even Mother Nature. Dietrich angrily responds \"It\'s not nice to fool Mother Nature!\" and commands nature to attack, such as through thunder and lightning or commanding an elephant to charge the camera. \"It\'s not nice to fool Mother Nature!\" eventually became Dietrich\'s trademark catchphrase. The melodic tagline for the ad reads: \"If you think it\'s butter, but it\'s not\...it\'s Chiffon.\" ## Death Dietrich died of natural causes on November 21, 2020, at a health-care facility in Los Angeles, two weeks before turning 92. Upon her death, she was cremated by The Neptune Society and her ashes scattered at sea

# Biblical speculative fiction **Biblical speculative fiction** is speculative fiction that uses Christian themes and incorporates the Christian worldview. (It is thus distinct from speculations on the Bible and/or Christianity such as *Pilgrim\'s Progress*, *The Shack*, or *The Da Vinci Code*.) The difference between biblical speculative fiction and general Christian speculative fiction is that the Christian nature of the story is overt. This represents the tension in the Christian fiction community between those who prefer stories that reflect a Christian worldview without explicitly Christian references (such as *The Lord of the Rings*), and those who prefer the more overt Christian material usually found in the works of G. K. Chesterton and C.S. Lewis. Examples of these views may be found in the explanatory page of *Ray Gun Revival* (2006--2012), a magazine that took the non-explicit route, and the homepage of the *Lost Genre Guild*, a group dedicated to explicitly Christian speculative fiction. ## Development Modern biblical speculative fiction may be divided into two phases, though to some extent this reflects American Evangelical tendencies, not those of the world in general. The first phase is a science-adventure story where the characters are generally devout Christians. They act on guidance from God, but no overt or miraculous divine intervention occurs. Like many other early Evangelical novels, there is almost always a non-Christian character who eventually becomes born again as a result of a formulaic process for getting saved. The emphasis is biblical and doctrinal. Theoretically, one could strip out the Christian content and simply get a moral, ethical science-fiction story, though some characters\' motivations would be affected. An example of this phase is Bernard Palmer\'s *Jim Dunlap* series from the late 1960s, which was almost a Christian answer to Tom Swift, Jr.: Dr. Brockton, a godly former missionary, becomes a brilliant scientist, winning his young associates (including Jim Dunlap) to Christ as he produces various high-tech marvels, such as the wingless plane and a space station. The second phase can almost be summed up in a single name: Frank Peretti. These stories still have a biblical and doctrinal emphasis, but they also feature miraculous intervention. Unlike the first type mentioned above, they are inherently Christian and would implode if the Christian content were removed. The salvation formula is not rigidly followed: a character\'s salvation experience is often more of a process than a formula-based event. The importance of Peretti is likely that he showed other writers what was possible: *This Present Darkness* unapologetically featured demons, angels, and a non-human perspective on spiritual warfare. Much modern biblical speculative fiction derives from Peretti\'s approach or at least responds to it. On the other hand, writers outside the American Evangelical community have produced some \"modern\" works for decades. G. K. Chesterton\'s *The Ball and the Cross*, for example, has a science-fictional opening critical of evolution, provides a salvation without the usual \"sinner\'s prayer\", and toward the end features a miraculous divine intervention seen in today\'s works. Likewise, C.S. Lewis\' *The Chronicles of Narnia* are non-formulaic in their approach to salvation and overtly miraculous in content. The same is true of Lewis\' *Space Trilogy*. ## Genres Christian speculative fiction can come under a number of genres including; - Fantasy (such as *The Girl Who Could See* by Kara Swanson) - Steampunk (such as *Tainted* by Morgan Busse) - Time Travel (such as A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle) - Space travel (such as The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell or *Brand of Light* by Ronie Kendig) - Alien Invasion (such as the movie Signs) - Supernatural (such as *Soul's Gate* by James Rubart) - Magic (such as *Romanov* by Nadine Brandes) - Horror (such as *Demon* by Tosca Lee) - End of the World (such as Lord of the World by Robert Hugh Benson or *The Christ Clone Trilogy* by James Beauseigneur) - Possible futures (such as *The Second Sleep* by Robert Harris) - Fictionalised history (such as the Homecoming Saga by Orson Scott Card or *The Last Pilgrims* by Michael Bunker) ## Current venues {#current_venues} In the last few years, many new venues have opened for the biblical, or Christian, speculative fiction genre. Jeff Gerke\'s Marcher Lord Press is one such example. Marcher Lord Press, using print-on-demand (POD) technology, is an independent publishing house for Christian speculative fiction and has made a name for itself within the Christian publishing industry. Other independent publishers have since followed this model such as Odyssey Illustrated Press, for instance, which came on the industry scene following encouragement from Gerke. The result has brought a broader range of Christian speculative fiction to this niche market, but has also answered the demand for more variety in the genre as well. In addition, there are several Internet-only venues referred to as e-zines or web-zines. These include *Mind Flights*, *Residential Aliens*, and *The Cross and the Cosmos*. These venues offer free Christian speculative fiction for the masses and enable the propagation of the genre. They include a variety of downloadable content, stories, and poetry.

# Biblical speculative fiction ## The future {#the_future} A different view of the subgenre\'s development suggests that there is a trend toward increasing inclusion, just as evangelical Protestants in general seem to be opening up to other branches of Christianity. This view is based on stories from a recent anthology, *Light at the Edge of Darkness*, and on cooperation in the field in general, such as promotion of non-Protestant works by Protestant writers, and vice versa. Odyssey Illustrated Press uses the model of distribution precedented by Marcher Lord Press, but publishes Christian speculative fiction that is more progressive in its approach to plot themes and character development. They are open to Christian readers and non-Christian readers alike. This approach is becoming more commonplace and is developing a new wave of Christian Speculative Fiction not unlike the movement in secular speculative fiction in the 1960s, helmed by writers such as Michael Moorcock

# Romeo Cascarino **Romeo Cascarino** (September 28, 1922 -- January 8, 2002) was an American composer of classical music. Cascarino was born in Philadelphia on September 28, 1922 and died in Norristown, Pennsylvania on January 8, 2002. He graduated from South Philadelphia High School in June 1941. He served for many years as professor of music at the (now-defunct) Combs College of Music in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He received two Guggenheim Fellowships (in 1948 and 1949). His music is generally tonal, and his magnum opus is the opera *William Penn*, whose life had fascinated Cascarino since childhood. The opera took him nearly 25 years to compose (from 1950 to 1975), and it was premiered in 1982 at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia with John Cheek of the Metropolitan Opera in the title role. CDs of his music have been released on Naxos featuring his Orchestral and Chamber Works with JoAnn Falletta conducting; \'Blades of Grass\', for English Horn and String Orchestra was recorded on Innova with Orchestra 2001 conducted by James Freeman. His works have been played by the Philadelphia Orchestra, the New Orleans Philharmonic, the Royal Philharmonic of London and the Nord Deutsches Symphony. His ballets *Pygmalion* and *Prospice* were mounted in Philadelphia and New York. In 1961 he arranged and conducted *Pieces for Piano and Orchestra* recorded in the cine Citta studios in Rome, Italy. From 1950 to 1957, he was musical director of the Co-opera Company giving performances of rarely heard operas in English, the translations often done by Cascarino himself

# Plainview Hospital **Plainview Hospital** is an acute care community hospital with 219 beds located on 888 Old Country Road in Plainview, New York. This hospital is one of the 22 member hospitals that make up Northwell Health. Prior to merging with Northwell Health, Plainview Hospital was known as **Central General Hospital**. Today, the hospital is led by Executive Director Michael Fener. ## History The Town of Oyster Bay first approved construction of the hospital on May 25, 1956. The hospital opened with a dedicative ribbon-cutting ceremony five years later, on June 25, 1961. The t-shaped building had 205 beds and 154 staff members. The building was named Central General Hospital, for its central location on Long Island. Dr. Anton Notey oversaw its construction and was the hospital\'s owner and Executive Director until his indictment in 1978 for a nursing home kickback scheme. After Dr. Notey was indicted, Robert J. Bornstein replaced him as Administrator of the hospital. In July 1984, the hospital purchased a \$70,000 (\$177,573.35 adjusted for inflation) Sharplan surgical laser. At the time, it was one of the latest technologies available, and was one of only 500 lasers sent to North America. On December 22, 1994, Central General Hospital officially became a member of the North Shore Health System which eventually merged with LIJ to form the North Shore-LIJ Health System (now Northwell); this meant the hospital changed from a for-profit to a not-for-profit hospital. This also meant that the name of the hospital would change to Plainview Hospital, however people used the name Central General Hospital for the next few years. After the acquisition by North Shore-LIJ, over 100 benefactors pledged to donate at least \$1,000 (\$1,614.34 adjusted for inflation) for the purpose of upgrading and replacing medical equipment. Today, the hospital has 219 beds, and is overseen by Executive Director Michael Fener, who also oversees nearby Syosset Hospital. In 2018, the telemetry unit received a complete makeover and renovation that cost \$2,000,000. Currently, the hospital is going under a \$19,000,000 cardiac catherization wing with two labs. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Old Country Road was given a secondary name of \"Heroes Way\" between Kalda Lane and Gerhard and Central Park Roads, to honor the first responders that work in the hospital. ## Services Plainview Hospital currently has 219 beds and can handle general emergency, wounds, gastroenterology, palliative, and urology services. It also has a gynecological wing. This hospital is a teaching hospital affiliated with the Zucker School of Medicine, Hofstra Northwell School of Nursing and Physician Assistant Studies and the New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine

# Combs College of Music **Combs College of Music** was a former music school founded in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States, in 1885 as **Combs Broad Street Conservatory of Music** by Gilbert Raynolds Combs, celebrated pianist, organist and composer. It closed in 1990. ## History The faculty included famous musicians such as Leopold Godowsky, Hugh Archibald Clark and Henry Schradieck. In 1908 the college was chartered to grant academic degrees in music. The name of the college was changed in 1933 to Combs College of Music. Combs was the first music college to have dormitories and foreign students. In 1954, Helen Behr Braun, a graduate of Combs Broad Street Conservatory and a concert violinist, succeeded to the Presidency. Under her direction an impressive faculty was assembled which included Jean Casadesus, Leo Ornstein, Philadelphia Orchestra members Jacob Krachmalnick, Carl Torello and William Kincaid, musicologist Guy Marriner and composer Romeo Cascarino. A partial list of notable faculty during the 1970s and 80s also included the duo-piano team of Toni and Rosi Grunschlag, performers and pedagogues Jacob Neupauer, Michael Guerra, Donald Reinhardt, Anthony Weigand, Romeo Cascarino, Dolores Ferraro, Frank Versaci, Joseph Primavera, Keith Chapman, Morton Berger, Howard Haines, William Fabrizio and John McIntyre. As early as 1954 Helen Braun was exploring the use of music as a therapy. The college engaged in many early research projects; one sponsored by the Rudolf Steiner Foundation, which sent distinguished composer and Combs alumnus Paul Nordoff to England and Scotland to study the use of music for special needs children. Together with Clive Robbins, he pioneered a unique program of music therapy, widely recognized for its innovative and effective results. With Nordoff\'s teachings as a foundation, Combs was the first college in the Philadelphia area to offer an educational program in Music Therapy. Many of the leading practitioners in that field received their degrees from Combs.(see notable alumni below) The college moved from Center City to the city\'s West Mount Airy neighborhood and occupying many houses in the Pelham section in 1964, expanding the campus and adding dormitories. In 1984, the college relocated again to a new-38 acre campus in Radnor, Pennsylvania. Just prior to this move, Combs\' Head of Composition and Composer in Residence Romeo Cascarino\'s opera *William Penn* attracted international attention. Sponsored by the college and the William Penn Opera Committee in cooperation with the Century IV Celebration, it was successfully mounted and performed at Philadelphia\'s prestigious Academy of Music in 1982. The college moved back to Philadelphia in 1987 to the campus of Spring Garden College. During the economic climate of those years, Combs College of Music, like so many small private institutions, experienced financial hardship and found its endowment inadequate. In 1990, the Board of Trustees made the decision to close its doors. ## Accreditations and memberships {#accreditations_and_memberships} - The National Association of Schools of Music - The Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools - The National Association for Music Therapy - The American Association of Music Therapy - The Pennsylvania Department of Education (for teacher certification) ## Notable alumni {#notable_alumni} Notable Combs alumni include: - Stanley Branche, civil rights activist, founder of the Committee for Freedom Now - John Coltrane, saxophonist, composer - Marc Copland, jazz pianist - Khan Jamal, jazz vibraphonist - Gail Levin, music therapist, author - Robert Manno, composer, conductor, Windham Chamber Music Festival - Vincent Persichetti, composer, author, educator - John Cheek, bass-baritone - Metropolitan Opera ## Honorary degrees {#honorary_degrees} Recipients of honorary Doctor of Music (D.Mus) degrees from Combs included: - Marian Anderson, contralto - Samuel Barber, composer, pianist, singer - Harold Boatrite, composer, educator - Romeo Cascarino, composer, pianist, arranger, educator - Keith Chapman, composer, organist at the Wanamaker Organ - Mischa Elman, concert violinist - Marc Mostovoy, conductor, founder, Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia - Paul Nordoff, composer, music therapist, author - Temple Painter, concert harpsichordist, organist, pianist, educator - Vincent Persichetti, composer, author, educator - Leopold Stokowski, conductor - Mary Louise Curtis Bok Zimbalist, founder, Curtis Institute of Music - Thomas LoMonaco, tenor, noted pedagogue - Frank Versaci, concert flutist Additionally, Combs awarded honorary Doctor of Humane Letters (D.H.L.) degrees to notables including: - Pearl S

# Robert Forman **Robert Forman** (died 1530) was a late medieval Scottish churchman. He was the son of one Janet Blackadder and her husband, a Berwickshire landowner named Nicholas Forman of Hatton. Sometime before 11 February 1500, he was made Precentor of Glasgow. He was Dean of Glasgow from 1505, a position he would hold until his death. Between 1506 and 1511 he was also in possession of the Chancellorship of the diocese of Moray. After the death of William Elphinstone (d. 24 October 1514), the bishopric of Aberdeen became vacant. At Rome Pope Leo X provided Forman to the vacant see. However, the canons of Aberdeen prepared to elect a successor. According to John Spottiswoode, Alexander Gordon, 3rd Earl of Huntly, pressured the canons to elect his own cousin, also Alexander Gordon, a man who was at that time the Precentor of Moray. Forman was persuaded by his brother Andrew Forman, Archbishop of St Andrews, to yield his claim to Gordon upon the promise of the next vacancy. He never, however, obtained any other bishopric. He died as Dean of Glasgow on 19 November 1530

# Peridinin **Peridinin** is a light-harvesting apocarotenoid, a pigment associated with chlorophyll and found in the peridinin-chlorophyll-protein (PCP) light-harvesting complex in dinoflagellates, best studied in *Amphidinium carterae*. ## Biological significance {#biological_significance} Peridinin is an apocarotenoid pigment that some organisms use in photosynthesis. Many photosynthetic dinoflagellates use peridinin, which absorbs blue-green light in the 470--550 nm range, outside the range accessible to chlorophyll molecules. The peridinin-chlorophyll-protein complex is a specialized molecular complex consisting of a boat-shaped protein molecule with a large central cavity that contains peridinin, chlorophyll, and lipid molecules, usually in a 4:1 ratio of peridinin to chlorophyll. ## Spectral characteristics {#spectral_characteristics} - Absorption maximum: 483 nm - Emission maximum: 676 nm - Extinction coefficient (ε): 1.96 x 10^6^M^−1^cm^−1^ - A~483~/A~280~ ≥ 4.6 ## Applications Peridinin chlorophyll (PerCP) is commonly used in immunoassays such as fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and flow cytometry. The fluorophore is covalently linked to proteins or antibodies for use in research applications

# Psychosis (video game) ***Psychosis*** (*Paranoia* in Japan) is a side-scrolling shooter video game developed by Naxat Soft and published by NEC for the PC Engine/TurboGrafx-16. It was released in 1990 by Naxat Soft, which also released the games *Alien Crush* and *Devil\'s Crush* (two pinball type games). When released it was praised for its colorful graphics and original backstory. It was released on the Wii\'s Virtual Console in 2008. ## Story The player\'s mind has been taken over by an evil power, or at least that is what they are led to think. This force, \"The Devil Ugar\", plans to make their mind his own, but the player\'s character will not give up without a fight. The player used their mind to create the vehicle that will travel through their conscious and subconscious to win back their sanity. ## Gameplay *Psychosis* is a side scrolling shooter. When the ship obtains a power up two indestructible satellites that can be positioned above, behind, below, or in front of the ship using the I button appear. Different powerups (in the form of colored orbs with letters in them) change the satellites in different ways. Some allow the satellites to shoot, others endow them with an electric shield. The II button fires the main weapons. The game consists of 5 stages (causes) with a boss at the end of each. The game is started with 3 ships with an extra ship available at every 50,000 points. *Psychosis* is a one-player game. There are minor region differences between the Japanese and US versions. The first is the intermissions and game over screens where an imp will curse at and flip off the player in the Japanese but waves a finger in the US. The other is the swapping between stages 2 and 3 in the US version

# Sons of California \"**Sons of California**\" is a fight song of the University of California, Berkeley, as well as the University of California, Davis. It was composed by Clinton \"Brick\" Morse in 1896. Although it was originally an unpopular song among students because of its slow and solemn hymn, the Cal Band began performing a more lively version in the 1930s. From then on, \"Sons of California\" would remain one of the best known songs at the University. ## Lyrics `{{quote|<poem>We are Sons of California A loyal company; All shout for California While we strive for victory. All sing the joyful chorus, As her colors we unfold; Then hurrah for California, And for the Blue and Gold. (shouted verse, accompanied by percussion instruments) C--- A--- L--- I--- F-O-R- N-I-A- CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA CALI-FORRRRRRRRR-NIA! We’ll yell for California, Dear Mother of us all.

# Queen's College, St James **Queen\'s College** is a public secondary school in Barbados that was established in 1883. It is a multi-racial school with students drawn from a wide cross-section of the Barbadian community. It comprises eleven departments in which approximately thirty-three subject areas are taught. Annually a high percentage of Queen\'s College graduates enter universities in the West Indies, Great Britain, Canada and the United States. ## History Queen\'s College was established as a result of the recommendation of an Education Commission whose report suggested that Barbados required a first grade school for girls similar to that in the top educational institutions in Great Britain. The school commenced operations at Constitution Road in Bridgetown on 29 January 1883 with thirty-three female students. Their ages ranged from three to nineteen. The school was managed by a Board of Governors. The first headmistress was an Englishwoman, Helen Veich-Brown. The school roll steadily increased, and in 1946 Elsie Pilgrim became the first female in Barbados to be awarded the Barbados Government Scholarship. In 1970, Elsie Payne (née Pilgrim) became its first Barbadian headmistress, and during her tenure of office, co-education was introduced, when thirty-eight first form boys entered the school in 1980. After Dame Elsie Payne\'s retirement, Colleen Winter-Brathwaite was appointed headmistress of the school in 1985. She was followed by Coreen Kennedy in 1997. The school\'s first headmaster, Dr. David Browne was appointed in July 2008. Queen\'s College existed as an all-girls school until 1981 when it became a co-educational secondary school. It relocated from Constitution Road to its present site in Husbands, St. James, in 1990. Queens College students are sorted into various classes or \"forms\" in their first year, named for the first 5 letters of the Greek alphabet: Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Epsilon, where they remain until their 5th year. In their sixth year, should they choose to return, they are once again sorted into forms. However, at this time, selection is based on students\' subject selection for the 6th form

He played 4 games in the National Hockey League (NHL) during the 1960--61 season. The rest of his career, which lasted from 1957 to 1971, was spent in the minor leagues. He later became a coach in the minor leagues, and also coached the Washington Capitals in the NHL during the 1978--79 and 1979--80 seasons. ## Playing career {#playing_career} Belisle played junior hockey for the Guelph Biltmores and the Trois-Rivières Lions. He then signed with the New York Rangers of the National Hockey League, but his entire NHL career totaled four games during the 1960--61 season. He played fourteen years in the minor leagues, as a member of fifteen different clubs. Belisle\'s career year came in 1962-63, when he scored 70 points for the San Francisco Seals of the Western Hockey League. ## Coaching career {#coaching_career} Belisle began his coaching career with the Des Moines Oak Leafs, the final team for which he played. In 1978, he was named head coach of the Washington Capitals, whom he coached to a 24--41--15 record. After a slow start at the beginning of the 1979--80 NHL season, he was fired and replaced by Gary Green. Belisle was voted Central Hockey League coach of the year in 1981 while coaching the Dallas Black Hawks. The Black Hawks, a farm team for the Vancouver Canucks, compiled a 56-16-7, setting records for most victories by a minor league team, most points by a minor league team, most goals scored by a team and most road victories. Belisle later became an assistant coach with the Detroit Red Wings during the early 1980s. Belisle\'s son Dan Belisle was an ice hockey coach and executive in the North American Hockey League, Southern Hockey League, Colonial Hockey League, and ECHL, most notably serving as general manager for the ECHL\'s New Orleans Brass, Atlantic City Boardwalk Bullies, and Victoria Salmon Kings.

# Henry Milner Rideout **Henry Milner Rideout** (1877--1927) was an American writer. A native of Calais, Maine, he was the author of sixteen novels, twenty-three short stories and novellas and a biographical memoir. He also edited one college textbook and was co-editor of three others. Many of his stories appeared in *The Saturday Evening Post*. ## Rideout\'s Life {#rideouts_life} Rideout\'s father, a miller and road contractor, died when Rideout was twelve. Rideout\'s elder brother, who managed a bank in California, became the support of the family. At school, Rideout\'s ability caught the attention of his English teacher, Laura Burns, who was a cousin of the distinguished Harvard professor of English, Charles Townsend Copeland. She and Copeland motivated a group of Calais townspeople to lend Rideout the wherewithal to enter Harvard in 1895, where he was the first in his family to attend college. At Harvard, his literary talent came to the fore. Eventually he became Editor-in-Chief of *The Harvard Monthly*. His friends at Harvard included William Morrow, William Jones, Raynal Bolling, and Arthur Ruhl. After graduating in 1899 as Class Odist, Rideout was an instructor in the Harvard English department. Four years later, his college debts were paid and Rideout was free to turn away from a promising but uncongenial academic career. *The Atlantic Monthly* had accepted two of his short stories, giving him hope of earning his living by his pen. To gather background material, he set off from San Francisco for six months of travel in the Far East under contract to the American Woolen Company, reporting on jute mills in the Philippines, Indonesia, and India. Keeping careful notes, writing long detailed letters to his brother, he observed so well and later used atmosphere so skillfully that readers familiar with places such as Bangkok or Canton were persuaded that Rideout\'s familiarity equaled their own. During that arduous circumnavigation, Rideout made lifelong friendships with various expatriate working people, especially sea captains. When his final jute-reports were filed, he returned via Europe, and settled down in central California with his bank-manager brother to begin an all-out effort to write novels for a living. In California, he met his future wife Frances Reed, also a gifted writer. They lived in her family home in Sausalito where they raised their three children. There were a number of Rideout cousins in California, among them the playwright Ransom Rideout (1899--1975), whose play \"Goin\' Home\" was performed on Broadway in 1928 and staged by Antoinette Perry and Brock Pemberton, and who wrote dialogue for the film *Hallelujah!*, directed by King Vidor. As Rideout\'s work gained renown, readers in the United States, Canada, and Great Britain were eager for his stories. His eminence became such that the *San Francisco Chronicle* ran a banner headline announcing his sudden death from pneumonia while on a family trip to Europe.

# Henry Milner Rideout ## Critical appraisal {#critical_appraisal} In a 1920 essay titled \"The National Letters,\" H.L. Mencken said, `{{cquote|One constantly observes the collapse and surrender of writers who started out with aims far above that of the magazine nabob. I could draw up a long, long list of such victims: Henry Milner Rideout, [[Jack London]], [[Owen Johnson (writer)|Owen Johnson]], Chester Baily Fernald. . . .}}`{=mediawiki} Yet a study of Rideout\'s life reveals that his literary career was more like a workman following traditions of honest craftsmanship. Rideout\'s Far Eastern voyage also fits into his Down East heritage. Maine Rideouts had been shipbuilders since the late seventeenth century. They were lumbermen who cut the trees to build those ships. Some were farmers who made the most of the resources of the Maine coast by building a family schooner to venture to China or India on a trading voyage. Rideout set out to seek literary treasure on the other side of the world. With workmanlike modesty, Rideout spoke of his stories as his \"yarns.\" Even when he became well known, he never saw himself as a literary figure, and he despised coteries, literary movements, and intellectual snobbery. Rideout\'s fiction drew from two different sources: Maine background, or exotic background. Though his most acclaimed work is in the former vein, yet toward the end of his life he did equally well with a group of traditional Chinese tales told him at the Sausalito kitchen table by his friend Pan Ruguei. Those stories were collected as *Tao Tales*. John Macy said in a 1928 review that Rideout set the Chinese stories in \"enticingly classic English.\" The classical training absorbed at Harvard shows in the commemorative ode commissioned from Rideout for the Tercentennial Anniversary of the settlement of Saint Croix Island, Maine in 1904. Moreover, that ode, alone of all the Tercentennial speeches and formalities, makes mention of Native Americans. This awareness shows in his college friendship with William Jones, the Native-American anthropologist who died in the Philippines in 1909. (William Morrow and Raynal Bolling commissioned Rideout to write a memorial biography of Jones.) Rideout\'s last published work was an adventure story, *Lola the Bear*, set in the Maine woods among tribal people with whom Rideout had hunted and fished since boyhood. Rideout was a man who found ordinary people more interesting than high society. For example, he made friends with the engineer of a Cunard liner rather than with the first class passengers in the salon of that liner. He loathed cities, and his fictional heroes were country people and working men. The heroine of his late novel, *Barbry*, was an indentured servant girl. It is appropriate that Maine lumberjack songs and sea chanteys recorded by Rideout are preserved on wax cylinders in the archive of the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress. *The Dictionary of American Biography* contains an entry for Henry Milner Rideout with information supplied by his widow. In his valedictory 1928 review, John Macy pays tribute to Rideout\'s work: `{{cquote|The masculinity of substance and manner sets Rideout's New England tales apart from the exquisite idylls of [[Mary Eleanor Wilkins Freeman|Mary Wilkins]], [[Sarah Orne Jewett]], and [[Alice Brown (writer)|Alice Brown]]. He has their ear for the familiar speech of country people, but his intellectual fiber is more close-knit and tough than their charming homespun. On the other side it is equally far from the tar-and-tarpaulin kind of fiction...|40px|40px|''Henry Milner Rideout, a Romancer of the two Easts,''|''[[New York Herald Tribune]]'', August 5, 1928.}}`{=mediawiki}

# They Went Thataway ***They Went Thataway*** is a non-fiction book written by James Horwitz and published in 1976. It analyzes the Western film genre from a nostalgic, yet jaded point of view. The book takes the form of a quest journey, with Horwitz using the idea of researching and locating the old western actors of the past for a writing project. However, Horwitz uses the journey as a way to reconnect with his much more innocent past, and wonders what happened to himself and the world around him. The book carries a heavy anti-Establishment sense to its narration, with numerous references to Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, as well as the just-concluded Vietnam War. ## Plot Horwitz decides to travel to Hollywood and hunt down the surviving western heroes of his youth. As he drives across the country, he stops off at a variety of places that he had known only through western movie legends, only to find them too modernized. Upon arrival in Los Angeles, Horwitz contacts the Screen Actors Guild, which refuses to release the mailing addresses of the now-retired stars or even tell him who is alive or dead. He leaves his contact letters at the Guild office and places an ad in *The Hollywood Reporter*, asking for any of the actors willing to participate in the writing project to contact him. Through various means, Horwitz succeeds in tracking down and interviewing many western heroes, including Gene Autry, Sunset Carson, Joel McCrea, and Duncan Renaldo, AKA *The Cisco Kid*. Others, such as Jay Silverheels and Roy Rogers, reject him completely. Throughout the book, Horwitz is repeatedly disillusioned by the reality behind the nostalgia, such as Lash LaRue being arrested for drunkenness and drug possession or Roy Rogers\' horse Trigger stuffed and mounted in a museum. Horwitz ends the book at the site where Tom Mix died in a car accident. He takes out his childhood cowboy boots, tries to polish them, and leaves them at the monument marking the location. The book also contains a thorough analysis of the western movie genre, focusing primarily on the early cowboy film legends. Horwitz covers Hopalong Cassidy\'s career in detail

# Rhenium pentachloride **Rhenium pentachloride** is an inorganic compound with the formula `{{chem2|Re2Cl10}}`{=mediawiki}. This red-brown solid is paramagnetic. ## Structure and preparation {#structure_and_preparation} Rhenium pentachloride has a bioctahedral structure and can be described as Cl~4~Re(μ-Cl)~2~ReCl~4~. The (μ-Cl)~2~ part of this formula indicates that two chloride ligands are bridging ligands, i.e. they connect to two Re atoms. The Re-Re distance is 3.74 Å. The motif is similar to that seen for tantalum pentachloride. This compound was first prepared in 1933, a few years after the discovery of rhenium. The preparation involves chlorination of rhenium at temperatures up to 900 °C. The material can be purified by sublimation. ReCl~5~ is one of the most oxidized binary chlorides of Re. It does not undergo further chlorination. ReCl~6~ has been prepared from rhenium hexafluoride. Rhenium heptafluoride is known but not the heptachloride. ## Uses and reactions {#uses_and_reactions} It degrades in air to a brown liquid. Although rhenium pentachloride has no commercial applications, it is of historic significance as one of the early catalysts for olefin metathesis. Reduction gives trirhenium nonachloride. Oxygenation affords the Re(VII) oxychloride: : ReCl~5~ + 3 Cl~2~O → ReO~3~Cl + 5 Cl~2~ Comproportionation of the penta- and trichloride gives rhenium tetrachloride

# Massachusetts Route 102 **Massachusetts Route 102** (**MA 102**) is a 12.33 mi west--east state highway in western Massachusetts. Its western terminus is at the New York border where it connects to New York State Route 22 (NY 22) in Canaan, New York, and its eastern terminus is at the intersection U.S. Route 20 (US 20) and the Massachusetts Turnpike (Interstate 90) exit 10 in Lee. Along the way it intersects several major highways, including Route 41 in West Stockbridge and US 7 and Route 183 in Stockbridge. ## Route description {#route_description} Route 102 begins in West Stockbridge at the New York state line. It continues into Canaan, New York to meet New York State Route&nbsp;22 (NY 22) via a 0.2 mi connector road. The road, maintained by the New York State Department of Transportation, is designated NY 980D, an unsigned reference route. The route crosses Interstate 90 (Massachusetts Turnpike) twice in its first 2 mi, where it is also known as State Line Road. It joins Route 41 for a 1/2 mi concurrency through the center of West Stockbridge, crossing the Williams River south of Shaker Mill Pond. The concurrency ends just north of exit 3 of the Mass Pike, which provides access to the eastbound turnpike and from the westbound turnpike. Following this intersection, the route continues east into Stockbridge as West Stockbridge Road. It crosses the Mass Pike once more before intersecting Route 183 -- which serves the Berkshire Botanical Garden and Norman Rockwell Museum -- in the Larrywaug section of town. The route passes through the center of the town by way of Church Street and Main Street, passing concurrently with U.S. Route 7 (US 7) for 1/4 mi. The route then continues eastward via Pleasant Street, traveling parallel to the Housatonic River as it continues into Lee. After an at-grade railroad crossing with the Berkshire Subdivision, the route turns to the northeast before meeting its eastern terminus at the junction of US 20 (Houstatonic Street) and the entrance ramps to exit 10 of the Mass Pike

# Jacob Caro **Jacob Caro** (February 2, 1835 -- December 12, 1904) was a German historian. Caro was born in Gnesen (Gniezno), Grand Duchy of Posen, the son of Joseph Chayyim Caro. After several years of study at the universities of Berlin and Leipzig, he attracted considerable attention by his work *Das Interregnum Polens im Jahr 1586, oder die Häuser Zborowski und Zamojski* (Gotha, 1861) and was immediately entrusted with the continuation of Röppel\'s history of Poland in the series of *Geschichten der Europäischen Staaten*, edited by Arnold Hermann Ludwig Heeren and Friedrich August Ukert, and published at Gotha. Caro contributed volumes ii through v (1863--88) of this monumental work. Before publishing the results of his research he undertook several extensive journeys through Galicia and the south of Russia, and upon his return to Germany in 1863 was appointed privat-docent at the University of Jena. Shortly afterward, at the invitation of Grand Duchess Helena of Russia, he accompanied her on her travels, and was for some time attached to her suite at St. Petersburg. Later he was promoted to the position of assistant professor at the University of Jena; and in 1869 was called by the University of Breslau to fill a special chair of history. From 1882 he occupied the position of professor at that institution. He died in Breslau (Wrocław). His reputation is based chiefly on his researches in the history of Poland. Among his works, besides those already mentioned, are: - *Liber Cancellariæ Stanislai Ciolek: Ein Formelbuch der Polnischen Königskanzlei aus der Zeit der Hussitischen Bewegung*, 2 vols., Vienna, 1871--74 - *Aus der Kanzlei Kaiser Siegmunds*, Vienna, 1879 - *Beata und Halszka: Eine Polnisch-Russische Geschichte aus dem 16. Jahrhundert*, Breslau, 1880 - *Lessing und Swift: Studien über Nathan den Weisen*, Jena, 1869 - *Das Bündnis zu Canterbury: Eine Episode aus der Geschichte des Konstanzer Konzils*, Gotha, 1880 - *Über eine Reformationsschrift des 15. Jahrhundert*, Danzig (Gdańsk), 1882 - *Johannes Longinus: Ein Beitrag zur Litteraturgeschichte*, Jena, 1863 - *Catherina II

# Jewell Building The **Jewell Building** is a city landmark in North Omaha, Nebraska. Built in 1923, it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Located at 2221 North 24th Street, the building was home to the **Dreamland Ballroom** for more than 40 years, and featured performances by many touring jazz and blues legends, including Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Louis Armstrong, Dizzy Gillespie, and Lionel Hampton. The building has been designated as a Landmark by the City of Omaha, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is an example of the kind of venue that was integral to the cultural transmission and interchange of musical styles and art, especially in the years before television. In addition such entertainment centers were the chief ways that musicians, both local and national, earned enough to make livings. ## About Located at 2221-2225 North 24th Street in the Near North Side neighborhood of Omaha, the Jewell Building was built in 1923 by James Jewell Sr., an influential man in the local African-American community. Architect Frederick A. Henninger designed the building in the vernacular Georgian Revival style. It originally featured commercial spaces on the first floor, as well as the Dreamland Ballroom on the second floor. In 1945 Dreamland Ballroom was used as a USO center for African-American soldiers. It continued to be used for music performances until 1965. The Omaha Economic Development Council (OEDC) restored the building in the early 1980s. It was designated as a landmark by the City of Omaha on September 9, 1980, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. For several years, the Jewell Building housed OEDC\'s corporate headquarters and served as an office center for professional people and small businesses. Two private apartments were kept in the building. ## Dreamland Ballroom {#dreamland_ballroom} Located on the second floor of the Jewell Building, the Dreamland Ballroom was the premier nightclub for big bands and jazz in Omaha. James Jewell Jr. booked the original Nat King Cole Trio for \$25 a person for one show. Other performers included Dinah Washington, Earl Hines, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Louis Armstrong, Dizzy Gillespie, and Lionel Hampton. A variety of Omaha music legends including Preston Love, Anna Mae Winburn and Lloyd Hunter also played at the Dreamland. The ballroom closed in the 1960s. James Jewell was an influential man in the black community, and he invited activist Whitney Young to speak in the 1950s at Dreamland Hall about the Civil Rights Movement. Young started in Omaha and became the national director of the Urban League

# Archbishop Blenk High School **Archbishop Blenk High School** was an all girl Catholic high school in Gretna, Louisiana. The school was located on the West Bank of Jefferson Parish. Located in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New Orleans, the school was founded in 1962, named after Archbishop James Blenk, and staffed by the Marianites of Holy Cross. Blenk\'s school colors were blue and gray and proud home to the doves, their mascot. The school has been accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools since 1975. ## Blenk/Immaculata merge {#blenkimmaculata_merge} The Archdiocese of New Orleans has announced that after the 2006--2007 school year, Archbishop Blenk and Immaculata High School, both located on the West Bank, will merge. The new school will be called The Academy of Our Lady. Alumni, parents of students, and students have protested against this merger. One group of concerned parents, students and alumni have created a web site called Stop The Merger to pass along information in the hope of preventing the merger of Archbishop Blenk and Immaculata. The new school, like Immaculata, will be run by the Salesian Sisters. The *Times-Picayune* reported on January 4, 2007: \"Reversing course for the third time in less than a year, the Archdiocese of New Orleans will close the 46-year-old Archbishop Blenk High School in Gretna at the end of the school year and shift its students to Immaculata High in Marrero. Under a plan announced last spring, students at both schools would have been consolidated at Blenk's Gretna Boulevard campus, and Immaculata closed, until construction of a new all-girls Catholic school on the West Bank. Then, a second plan to retain both campuses under a new name was announced in October.\" The Blenk building was remodeled and used for a new magnet school, named Thomas Jefferson High School. Since the magnet school is public, all religious figures and statues were removed from campus. ## Awards and recognition {#awards_and_recognition} During the 1994--98 period, Archbishop Blenk High School was recognized with the Blue Ribbon School Award of Excellence by the United States Department of Education, the highest award an American school can receive

# Recover (band) **Recover** is an American rock band from Austin, Texas. ## History Recover is a post-hardcore band composed of Dan Keyes (guitar/vocals), Robert Mann (guitar/vocals), Ross Tweedy (bass), and Santiago \"Jimmy\" Vela III (drums). The band recorded a four-song demo in the spring of 2000. The demo found its way to Fueled by Ramen Records via the band\'s friends in fellow Austin band The Impossibles. The band later released their debut album, *Rodeo & Picasso*, in the summer of 2001. The band toured extensively in support of the album, and in 2002, released a follow-up EP on Fiddler Records, *Ceci n\'est pas recover*. The band continued an exhaustive touring schedule with bands such as Jimmy Eat World, AFI, The Get Up Kids, Braid, Thrice, My Chemical Romance, Thursday, Taking Back Sunday and Coheed and Cambria. The band would eventually sign to Universal imprint Strummer Recordings, alongside The Rapture and The Mars Volta in late 2002. In summer 2003, the band retreated to Austin Texas to write their second full-length, *This May Be The Year I Disappea*r, with help from producer Rory Phillips, a process that would take eight months due to recording setbacks. The band later recorded material with Linkin Park producer Don Gilmore at NRG Studios in Los Angeles, but according to the band\'s label the recordings weren\'t up to par and the band headed back to Texas to proceed recording with Rory Phillips. Mixed by Andy Wallace, *This May Be the Year I Disappear* was released in October 2004. The band embarked on a co-headlining tour with Armor for Sleep and Say Anything in early 2005. Later that year, the band suddenly went on hiatus, citing Keyes\' desire to move to New York and start a new project. In 2007 Recover announced they would be playing their first show in two years for the [Everyone Knows Everyone](http://www.myspace.com/everyoneparties) music festival in Austin, Texas on June 30, 2007 at Emo\'s. After reforming with Keyes\' Young Love in early 2009, the band announced that they had officially reunited and would perform several more shows in California, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts and Texas. In December 2016, the band was billed at Margin Walker\'s Sound On Sound festival, which subsequently rained out resulting in a surprise performance at Austin\'s The Mohawk, their first performance in 5 years. ## Current projects {#current_projects} By 2005, Dan Keyes relocated to New York and new dance-rock project, Young Love, was signed to Island Records. The band released an EP in 2006 and their debut full-length *Too* *Young to Fight It* in early 2007. Robert Mann is credited on the album and on tour with the band as well as Ross Tweedy performing live on bass. Santiago Vela III joined the band for their second album, *One of Us*, released in April 2009 on Island Records. Vela also spent a brief period with The Impossibles. In October 2011, The Sword announced Santiago Vela III as their permanent drummer. In 2012, Robert Mann joins Hector\'s Pets, based in Brooklyn, New York, releasing a self-titled 7\" on Burger City Rock n\' Roll in 2013, and full length album, *Pet-o-feelia*, on Oops Baby Records. In 2016, Dan Keyes formed Cologne, based in Los Angeles, California. In 2016, Mann debuted a new project, Bob Mann & The Rolling Thunder, based in Brooklyn, New York. ## Discography ### Albums Year Title Label Producer ------ ------------------------------------ -------------------------- ---------------- 2001 *Rodeo & Picasso* Fueled by Ramen Rory Phillips 2002 *Ceci n\'est pas recover* Fiddler Records Brian McTernan 2004 *This May Be the Year I Disappear* Universal Records Rory Phillips 2013 *Challenger* Animal Manufacturing Co.

# Super-Neutron \"**Super-Neutron**\" is a science fiction short story by American writer Isaac Asimov, originally published in the September 1941 issue of *Astonishing Stories*, and included in the 1972 collection *The Early Asimov*. Asimov originally intended the story to be the first in a series, but was unable to come up with any further story ideas. ## Plot summary {#plot_summary} In the year 2144, a group of four friends who call themselves the Honorable Society of Ananias meet for lunch once a month, during which one of the members tells a story. The story must be a complex and fantastic lie, but one which sounds like the truth. The other three members are free to heckle and attack the supposed veracity of the tale. At the seventeenth meeting, Gilbert Hayes, a guest, requests that he be allowed to tell a story. His tale is that, fifteen years before, as an astronomer, he discovered that a planet with no gravitational field had entered the Solar System from the region of the south celestial pole and remained undiscovered by other astronomers. Hayes compares the planet to a \"super-neutron\", and he claims that it is heading for the Sun and will strike in just over an hour, destroying the Sun the way a neutron causes a uranium nucleus to fission. The story Hayes weaves involves complex astronomical observations and theories, and at the end of the tale, he hands around pieces of exposed film-negative, through which the members gaze into the sky and see - or think they see - a small dark spot against the sun. At 2:09:30 pm Hayes announces that the super-neutron has struck the sun, and that the Earth will be destroyed in eight minutes. He calmly announces the destruction, first of Mercury, then of Venus, and finally counts down the last thirty seconds to the end of the Earth. When the Earth is not destroyed, Hayes theorizes that this is because the Sun is like a cadmium nucleus among the uranium nuclei of other stars---able to absorb the super-neutron without undergoing fission. Out of sheer relief, the members vote him in as Perpetual President of the Society, but the narrator has misgivings. He thinks that the story was in fact true and that therefore Hayes should have been disqualified

# Pedro Penduko at ang Mga Engkantao ***Pedro Penduko at ang Mga Engkantao*** (*`{{literal translation|Pedro Penduko and the Enchanted People}}`{=mediawiki}*) is a Philippine television drama fantasy series broadcast by ABS-CBN. The series is the first installment of *Komiks*. Directed by Dondon S. Santos and Mister Fonzy, it stars Matt Evans, Oyo Boy Sotto, Maja Salvador, Denise Laurel, Arron Villaflor and Makisig Morales. It aired on the network\'s Saturday evening line up from May 5 to October 27, 2007, replacing *Komiks: Da Adventures of Pedro Penduko* and was replaced by *1 vs. 100*. In this story, Pedro will not be the only one who will fight the evil Kalagua. He would be with the five chosen \"Engkantao\". ## Plot High school is finally over for Pedro (Matt Evans), and with it, he is about to leave Tulay Buhangin for college. Pedro and Lola Maria (Gloria Romero) found their way to his Lolo Pedro\'s boarding house at the University Belt, where Pedro is hoping to lead a normal life as a normal student. Except that, a normal life is not really an option for Pedro. In the first place, Lolo Pablo (Cris Daluz) is not your average grandfather -- he gets visions of spirits. And his latest vision is a frightening one -- the demon Kalagua has escaped from her prison and is determined to find the chosen Engkantao - a half-human, half engkanto hybrid - whose power can bring her to Floreshka. Once in Floreshka, he intends to destroy the kingdom and all engkantos protecting the human race - and begin the last apocalypse. ### Pedro in the City {#pedro_in_the_city} In Pedro\'s arrival, he experienced culture shock. He was amazed by the things in the city. Then, Lola Maria was captured by an unknown man with an evil spirit within him, Pedro then rescued her using his new powers. This incident happened in Cubao, Quezon City. In the other hand, a different accident happened in Makati City. It was in a hotel, where Kalagua put an evil spirit on a photographer and one of the Engkantaos, Josef, helped stop the evil spirit. Another incident took place in Tondo, Manila, where an evil monster came out of the garbage dump, and attacked the people. Marie, an Engkantao, was there to help. In Monumento, Caloocan, Dianne, also an Engkantao, fought the statues, that were brought alive by Kalagua. Also another incident happened in Luneta Grandstand, Manila, when a group of criminals captured people. The fifth Engkantao, Edward, helped them. Quezon City Memorial Circle, is where the last incident happened. Moy, the last Engkantao, used his powers to kill the snakes, that were attacking the people. These incidents happened in the same time, but different places. Those places, traced together, forms a Star of David shape, the symbol of the chosen Engkantaos. After the attacks, Kalagua, tries to find the chosen Engkantao, through the body of Dr. Eva. Will banding together help the young heroes - or will it make it easier for Kalagua to find them? ## Engkantao Engkantao comes from the Tagalog words *Engkanto* which means supernatural beings and *Tao* which means human. Engkantaos were people who are half Engkanto and half human. Kalagua, the villain of the story, is taking her revenge and the only way to do this is to combine her spirit with engkantaos. And only the six chosen engkantaos can defeat her. The six chosen engkantaos would know if they were the chosen one, if they have a Star of David birthmark on their body.

# Pedro Penduko at ang Mga Engkantao ## Cast and characters {#cast_and_characters} ### Main cast {#main_cast} - **Matt Evans** as *Pedro Penduko* - an Engkantao half Lambana of Floreshka and has the ability to emit colorful energy balls and ESP. This brave yet fun-loving hero wants a normal life, and looks forward to it in college. Little does he know that bigger surprises await for him this time. - **Oyo Boy Sotto** as *Josef* - the half-Dalaketnon Josef. Dalaketnons are known to be rather beautiful elitists, and Josef is of no exception. A bit of a coño, he is blessed with telekinesis as well as corporeal duplication---meaning he could generate tangible, living copies of himself indefinitely, and his hair and eyes turn white whenever his power manifests. His nose bleeds as a negative effect of his power. - **Maja Salvador** as *Marie* -- a shy probinsiyana, who is half Sigben and half human. Sigbens have the ability to become invisible, so they all look different from each other. Some look like dogs, cats and even goats! Not only Marie is gifted with the power of invisibility, she has the ability to shrink, and the ability to grow ears and a tail whenever she is angry. However, she can get memory lapses if she uses too much of her power. Furthermore, her invisibility does not hide sounds, making it possible to track her while invisible using this way - **Denise Laurel** as *Dianne* - a half-Wakwak who knows how to kick butt. She has wings so she can fly, as well as crawl on walls coupled with unbelievable agility! As a drawback of using too much power, she loses sight, while her power manifests by making her grow bat-like wings and steel claws. As Wakwaks have a bad reputation, Dianne strives to prove to people that they can be nice as well, although she feels guilty that her ancestors had a bad history with humans. - **Arron Villaflor** as *Edward* - half-kataw and half human who has the ability to manipulate water. Kataws are considered as mermen, and so Edward can grow fins, scales and web-like hands whenever his power manifests. Because he has the power to manipulate water, Edward dehydrates as a drawback of using a lot of his power. He came from a dark past, as his brother got into an accident because of his powers. A such, he blames himself for his brother\'s death and vows never to use his powers again. - **Makisig Morales** as *Moy* - a half-Santelmo and half human. Santelmos are able to wield fire, and Moy has the ability to generate fire and large fireballs. Feeling different from other kids, he bonds with grown-ups instead, and never fails to lose his sunny disposition. His power also has a drawback, as he gets a high fever because of it. Unlike the other members of his group, Moy is the only person who still doesn\'t know that he is half-Santelmo. This is because Moy\'s mother already abandoned him when he was still a baby. ### Supporting cast {#supporting_cast} - **Angelika Dela Cruz** as *Dr. Eva Tabinas/Kalagua/Salupa* - the well-loved guidance counselor at Pedro\'s university. She seemingly has the perfect life, as everything\'s going well with her career and family. The students love her dearly, as she can easily relate to them. Her world changes when Kalagua decides to take her body as a host. - **Melissa Ricks** as *Hiyas* - the former lambana princess who chose to live as an ordinary human, in order to be with the love of her life, Pedro Penduko. She does not have powers, and will try to live a normal life in the university, with the half-Sigben Marie as her best friend. - **Jake Cuenca** as *Napoleon*- Dalaketnon ruler Napoleon, who chooses to be human and ends up as Pedro\'s best friend, in order to look for the love of his life, Semona. - **Gloria Romero** as *Lola Maria* - Pedro Penduko\'s grandmother. She came with Pedro when he came to the city. She was the one who managed the boarding house business of Lolo Pablo while he\'s still in the hospital. ### Extended cast {#extended_cast} - **Agot Isidro** as *Reyna Bukang Liwayway* - Pedro\'s mother, who together with his father Juan, rules the kingdom of Floreshka. Like Lolo Pedro, she senses the presence of an evil spirit roaming earth, and will check up on her son every once in a while. - **Michelle Madrigal** as *Semona* - Napoleon\'s ex-girlfriend. She was a mere human, and was prohibited to have a relationship with a Dalaketnon. Helpless, she was unable to fight for their love, and became bitter in the end. She will be Kalagua\'s bridge in wreaking havoc on earth. - **Kitkat** as *Maalindog* - a lambana who now becomes Hiyas\' pet flower. Her current appearance does not daunt her from being loud, and at times ends up as a referee between Mayumi and Hiyas. - **Alwyn Uytingco** as *Topher* - one of the boarders in Lolo Pablo\'s house. - **Beverly Salviejo** as *Kelly* - Landlady in Marie and Hiyas\'s boarding house. - **Niña Jose** as *Marikit* - the lambana changed to Mayumi by Bukang Liwayway because Mayumi was spoiling Hiyas. - **Eda Nolan** as *Mayumi* - who works as Hiyas\' conscience, companion and source of magic on earth whenever Hiyas is in trouble. Hiyas and Pedro are the only ones who can see her. - **Aaron Agassi** as *Arthur* - Another one of the boarders in Lolo Pablo\'s house. - **Sharlene San Pedro** as *Monique* - Moy\'s girl best friend who is quite boyish. It was later revealed that she was also a half-Santelmo and half-human engkantao like her best friend Moy but she can project blue flame.
