# Petroleum Administration for Defense Districts The United States is divided into five **Petroleum Administration for Defense Districts**, or **PADDs**. These were created during World War II under the **Petroleum Administration for War** to help organize the allocation of fuels derived from petroleum products, including gasoline and diesel (or \"distillate\") fuel. Today, these regions are still used for data collection purposes. The Petroleum Administration for War was established in 1942 by executive order, and abolished in 1946. The districts are now named for the later **Petroleum Administration for Defense** which existed during the Korean War. It was established by the Defense Production Act of 1950, then abolished in 1954, with its role taken over by the United States Department of the Interior\'s Oil and Gas Division. The US government divided the US into five Petroleum Administration for Defense Districts (PADDs). These were created during World War II to help organize the allocation of fuels, including gasoline and diesel fuel. Today, these regions are still used for data collection purposes. ## PAD Districts {#pad_districts} - **PADD I (East Coast)** is composed of the following three subdistricts: - **Subdistrict A (New England)**: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont. - **Subdistrict B (Central Atlantic)**: Delaware, District of Columbia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. - **Subdistrict C (Lower Atlantic)**: Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia. - **PADD II (Midwest)**: Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Wisconsin. - **PADD III (Gulf Coast)**: Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, New Mexico, and Texas. - **PADD IV (Rocky Mountain)**: Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Utah, and Wyoming. - **PADD V (West Coast)**: Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington. - **PADD VI (Caribbean)**: US Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico. - **PADD VII (Pacific)**: Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands

# Seed (1931 film) ***Seed*** is a 1931 American pre-Code drama film directed by John M. Stahl. The screenplay by Gladys Lehman is based on a novel by Charles G. Norris. ## Plot Bart Carter has sacrificed a writing career so he can support his wife Peggy and their five children by working as a clerk in a New York City publishing house. When his former girlfriend Mildred Bronson, a literary agent who has been working in the Paris office, returns to the States, she arranges for Bart to draw his regular salary while working on a novel. Because his home life is so chaotic, Bart writes at Mildred\'s apartment during the day and frequently stays for dinner, and the two soon discover their old feelings for each other have been revived. Bart\'s novel is published, and when *Seed* becomes a critical and commercial success, he abandons his family and moves to France with Mildred. Peggy opens a dress shop and lives with the children in an apartment above the store. A decade later, the now-married Bart and Mildred return to New York. His grown children are delighted to see their father, who wishes to make amends for having left them. He suggests enrolling his daughter Margaret in finishing school, sending the twin boys to Harvard University, finding employment for his oldest son, and having the youngest boy live with him and Mildred. At her children\'s urging Peggy reluctantly agrees, although she feels she is losing them. Mildred assures her they will return to her one-day, whereas she believes their renewed relationship with their father will place her own future with Bart in jeopardy. ## Cast - John Boles as Bart Carter - Lois Wilson as Peggy Carter - Genevieve Tobin as Mildred - Raymond Hackett as Junior Carter - ZaSu Pitts as Jennie - Bette Davis as Margaret Carter - Richard Tucker as Bliss - Frances Dade as Nancy - Jack Willis as Dicky Carter - Dick Winslow as Johnny Carter - Bill Willis as Danny Carter - Dickie Moore as young Johnny Carter - Helen Parrish as young Margaret Carter ## Production Director John M. Stahl cast Bette Davis as Margaret Carter after seeing her in the studio commissary. It proved to be the smallest role of her career, and in later years she recalled \"If you blinked for a moment, you would have missed me. I should have joined the extra\'s union.\" ## Critical reception {#critical_reception} Mordaunt Hall of *The New York Times* wrote that the plot was \"undoubtedly an interesting theme, but in the film it merely results in being an adult idea offered in adolescent form.\" He thought John Boles was \"too placid to be convincing\" and John M. Stahl\'s direction was \"unimaginative.\" He concluded \"It is a lethargic and often dull production, in spite of the good acting by both Genevieve Tobin as Mildred and Miss Wilson as Peggy, Zazu Pitts as a servant and passable performances by some of the other players

# Polysiphonia ***Polysiphonia***, known as **red hair algae**, is a genus of filamentous red algae with about 19 species on the coasts of the British Isles and about 200 species worldwide, including Crete in Greece, Antarctica and Greenland. Its members are known by a number of common names. It is in the order Ceramiales and family Rhodomelaceae. ## Description *Polysiphonia* is a red alga, polysiphonous and usually well branched, with some plants reaching a length of about 30 cm. They are attached by rhizoids or haptera to a rocky surface or other alga. The thallus (tissue) consists of fine branched filaments each with a central axial filament supporting pericentral cells. The number of these pericentral cells (4--24) is used in identification. *Polysiphonia elongata* shows a central axial cell with 4 periaxial cells with cortical cells growing over the outside on the older fronds. Its cuticle contains bromine. Features used in identification include the number of pericentral cells, the cortication of main branches, constriction of young branches at their base, whether the branching dichotomous or spiral, and the width and length of thalli. ## Distribution and ecology {#distribution_and_ecology} Species have been recorded from Europe, Australia and New Zealand, North America and South America, islands in the Pacific Ocean, South Africa, southwest Asia, Japan, Greenland and Antarctica. The species are entirely marine, found growing on rock, other algae, mussels or limpets and artificial substrata etc. from mid-littoral to at least 27 m depth. Many species are abundant in rock pools. *Polysiphonia lanosa* is commonly found growing on *Ascophyllum nodosum.* ## Reproduction and life cycle {#reproduction_and_life_cycle} The life-cycle of the red algae has three stages (triphasic). In *Polysiphonia* it consists of a sequence of a gametangial, carpospoangial and tetrasporangial phases.`{{page needed|date=May 2021}}`{=mediawiki} Male (haploid) plants (the male gametophytes) produce spermatia and the female plants (the female gametophytes) produce the carpogonium (the haploid carpogonium) which remains attached to the parent female plant. After fertilization the diploid nucleus migrates and fuses with an auxiliary cell. A complex series of fusions and developments follow as the diploid zygote develops to become the carposporophyte, this is a separate phase of the life-cycle and is entirely parasitic on the female, it is surrounded by the haploid pericarp of the parent female plant. The diploid carpospores produced in the carposporangium when released are non-motile, they settle and grow to form filamentous diploid plants similar to the gametophyte. This diploid plant is the tetrasporophyte which when adult produced spores in fours after meiosis. These spores settle and grow to become the male and female plants thus completing the cycle.`{{page needed|date=May 2021}}`{=mediawiki}`{{page needed|date=May 2021}}`{=mediawiki}

# The Honeymoon Killers (Belgian band) **The Honeymoon Killers** were a Belgian experimental rock band originally formed in 1974 by **Yvon Vromman**, with J.F Jones Jacob, and Gérald Fenerberg. In its first incarnation, the band played mostly in Brussels, was arrogant and funny, and performed massacres on all musical genres, from rockabilly and punk to marching band music, French chanson and free jazz. The band\'s original name at the time was *Les Tueurs de la lune de miel* (i.e. \"The Honeymoon Killers\" in French). Their first album, entitled *Special Manubre*, was produced by Marc Moulin for his short-lived Kamikaze imprint, and came out in 1977. In 1980 the *Tueurs* were joined by Vincent Kenis and Marc Hollander from Aksak Maboul and completed their line-up with singer Véronique Vincent. 1981 saw the group touring through Europe. Their cover of Charles Trenet\'s \"Route Nationale 7\" quickly became a radio & TV hit single in France and Belgium. The band\'s second album (entitled *Les Tueurs de la Lune de Miel* --- the French title of the album being the band's English name, and vice versa) was warmly welcomed in Germany, France, and the UK where, unusually for a band which didn\'t sing in English, they received excellent coverage in the press, including the *NME*, on the cover of which the band appeared in 1982. Another member during the 1980s was transgender hardcore pioneer Liza \'N\' Eliaz. Live on stage, The Honeymoon Killers often used pre-recorded drum machine loops which were played from cassette, over this they put guitar, bass, drums, trashy percussion, cheap-sounding organ, with Vromman and Vincent taking turns on singing. Some of their songs were extended to 20 minutes with their own brand of dub echo effects. The group split in 1985. Yvon Vromman died in 1989. Their album *Les Tueurs De La Lune De Miel* was rated \"best Belgian rock album of all times\" by Belgian rock magazine *Mofo*, and numbered among the top ten Belgian albums of all times according to Le Vif/L\'Express magazine (2008). In July 2012, UK newspaper The Guardian published an article entitled \"The History of Belgian Pop in 10 Songs\", which featured The Honeymoon Killers\' *Décollage*, and described the group as \"a band whose combination of indie pop, jazz and African influences echoed the pioneering spirit of Talking Heads without ever lapsing into imitation\" In the Fall of 2014, former Honeymoon Killers members Véronique Vincent and Marc Hollander completed and released the album entitled *Ex-Futur Album* under the artist name *Véronique Vincent & Aksak Maboul with The Honeymoon Killers*. The album had been recorded in the early 1980s with Vincent Kenis and with contributions by the rest of the band. The album *Les Tueurs de la Lune de Miel* was reissued on vinyl in 2016. ## Discography - *Spécial Manubre* (vinyl LP, Kamikaze, 1977 - reissued in 2009 on CD by Crammed Discs)

Originally entitled *Other People\'s Business*, it drew criticism from a studio script reader who felt that the plot was outdated and noted: \"A story of this type should never take itself seriously, for the day when pictures like *The Old Homestead* \[a 1915 Famous Players film focused on a popular New England vaudevillian\] would grip the attention of a movie audience is lost forever.\" The reader cited the commercial failure of *Check and Double Check*, a 1930 feature based on *Amos \'n\' Andy*, as proof that radio shows did not adapt well for the screen, and noted that most *Seth Parker* listeners were \"those people who are interested in the singing of hymns, old folk songs, and a very simple brand of humor\" and that the \"average young person, between the ages of fifteen and thirty, who form a very large percentage of the movie audiences, do not listen to the broadcast.\" However, RKO supervising producer Pandro S. Berman greenlighted the project and budgeted it at \$400,000. Berman negotiated with Universal Pictures for the loan of Bette Davis, whose contract with the studio had been recently renewed following her completion of *Waterloo Bridge*, and Carl Laemmle, Jr. agreed to loan her for a fee of \$300 per week. Davis was pleased with the attention paid to her by cinematographer J. Roy Hunt. She later recalled: \"I was truly overjoyed. Plus the part I played was an important one---and a charming one. It gave me some confidence in myself for the first time since leaving the theater in New York.\" The film was shot on location in Santa Cruz, California because of the small town\'s New England-like atmosphere. Much of the rural farm setting was filmed at the Hunsucker Ranch in Scotts Valley, a well-known filming location at the time. The ranch was also used as a filming location for *Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm* (1917) and *Hide-Out* (1934). ## Reception Andre Sennwald of *The New York Times* observed: \"Seth Parker, the radio sage, is shedding a rather appealing sweetness and light \... in his first motion picture \... \[His\] following will not be disappointed and those who do not know the character will find a gentle and frequently moving entertainment.\" In later years, Bette Davis commented: \"I\'m glad Sennwald felt about it as he did. He obviously accepted it for what it was meant to be---not a masterpiece, just a slice of Yankee village life.\" *Variety* wrote: \"As entertainment the film is unbelievably bad. The story is strictly an old-style proposed tearjerker. It runs 81 minutes which seem like 181.\" *Motion Picture Herald* reviewed the film as *Other People\'s Business*, the title under which it was released in Great Britain, although domestically it was changed to *Way Back Home* when Phillips Lord published his book *Seth Parker & His Jonesport Folks: Way Back Home* to coincide with the release of the film. ## Preservation - A print is housed in the Library of Congress collection. Warner Bros., which owns the RKO library, has preserved the film, which airs occasionally on Turner Classic Movies

She was the first woman appointed to that court. ## Early life and education {#early_life_and_education} Ellen Ash was born in Berlin on March 21, 1930; her father was Jewish and a lawyer, and her grandfather was also a lawyer. Her family fled the Nazis in 1938 and briefly lived in the Netherlands before immigrating to New York City in 1939. Peters attended Hunter College High School in New York, Swarthmore College, and Yale Law School, receiving her LL.B., *cum laude*, in 1954. ## Career Peters clerked for Chief Judge Charles Edward Clark of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit for one year, and was a research associate at the University of California at Berkeley Law School (Boalt Hall) for another year. Peters became assistant professor at Yale Law School in 1956 and full professor in 1964 before being named Southmayd Professor of Law, a post she held from 1975 to 1978, when Governor Ella Tambussi Grasso appointed Peters to the Connecticut Supreme Court. Peters was the first woman to gain tenure at Yale Law School. Peters was the first female state supreme court justice appointed by a female governor. After Peters was appointed to the bench, she remained an adjunct professor until being appointed chief justice in 1984 by Governor William A. O\'Neill. Peters remained chief justice until 1996, when she took senior status, leaving the court in 2000 when she reached mandatory retirement age. After stepping down from the Supreme Court of Connecticut, Peters remained active on the bench, sitting from 2000 to 2014 as a judge trial referee on the Connecticut Appellate Court in Hartford. Peters was a visiting professor of law at the University of Connecticut Law School. ### Notable decisions {#notable_decisions} Sheff v. O\'Neill refers to a 1989 lawsuit and the subsequent 1996 Connecticut Supreme Court case (*Sheff v. O\'Neill*, 238 Conn. 1, 678 A.2d 1267) that resulted in a landmark decision regarding civil rights and the right to education. In 1996 the Connecticut Supreme Court ruled that the state had an affirmative obligation to provide Connecticut\'s school children with a substantially equal educational opportunity and that this constitutionally guaranteed right encompasses the access to a public education which is not substantially and materially impaired by racial and ethnic isolation. The Court further concluded that school districting based upon town and city boundary lines are unconstitutional, and cited a statute that bounds school districts by town lines as a key factor in the high concentrations of racial and ethnic minorities in Hartford. This was a split 4--3 decision, which was authored by Chief Justice Peters. She was joined in the majority opinion by Justices Robert Berdon, Flemming L. Norcott, Jr., and Joette Katz. Justice David Borden authored the dissent, with Justices Robert Callahan and Richard Palmer concurring with the dissent. ## Memberships, awards and honors {#memberships_awards_and_honors} Peters was an alumni fellow of the Yale Corporation and a former member of the board of managers of Swarthmore College. She was a member of the Council of the American Law Institute, the American Philosophical Society, and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Peters was the first recipient of the Ella T. Grasso Distinguished Service Medal, and received a number of other awards, including the Connecticut Trial Lawyers\' Association Judiciary Award, the Yale Law School Distinguished Service Medal, the Hartford College for Women\'s Pioneer Woman Award, and the National Center for State Courts\' Warren E. Burger Award (2002). She received an honorary Doctor of Laws from the University of Connecticut in 1992. March 21, 2015, was declared \"Ellen Ash Peters Day\" in Connecticut by Governor Dannel P.

# Costières de Nîmes AOC **Costières de Nîmes** (`{{IPA|fr|kɔstjɛʁ də nim}}`{=mediawiki}) is an Appellation d\'Origine Contrôlée (AOC) for wines that are produced in an area between the ancient city of Nîmes and the western Rhône delta, in the French department of the Gard. Formerly part of the Languedoc region of France, as the wines more resemble those of the Rhône valley in character than of the Languedoc, it is now part of the Rhone wine area and administered by the Rhône Wine committee which has its headquarters in Avignon. ## History Wines from the region have been produced for over two millennia and were consumed by the Greeks in pre-Roman times, making it one of the oldest vineyards in Europe. The area was settled by veterans of Julius Caesar\'s campaigns in Egypt, and bottles of Costières de Nîmes bear the symbol of the Roman settlement at Nîmes, a crocodile chained to a palm tree. According to a chart in the kitchen of the Palais des Papes in Avignon, many of the towns in what is now the Costieres de Nîmes region were the main suppliers of wine to the Popes of that era. ### Change of name and regional affiliation {#change_of_name_and_regional_affiliation} Formerly known as **Costières du Gard**, a VDQS, the wine achieved AOC status in 1986 and was renamed Costières de Nîmes 1989. In 1998 the growers\' organization (the syndicate) requested that the appellation should be attached to the Rhône wine region as their wines are more reflective of the typical characteristics of Rhône wines than of the Languedoc region to which the area geographically belongs. INAO, the French authority which regulates the country\'s appellations, assigns each appellation to a regional committee which is in charge of approving wines from that appellation. This list is a legal text published by the French ministry of agriculture. The move of Costières de Nîmes to the regional committee of the Rhône valley was effected in the 19 July 2004 version of this list. Up until the version of 8 July 1998, which the 2004 version superseded, Costières de Nîmes was assigned to the regional committee of Languedoc-Roussillon. The immediately adjacent AOC of Clairette de Bellegarde remains listed as a Languedoc AOC. ## Geography Between the low rocky hills and *garrigue* that mark the border of the Languedoc with the Provence, and the low sandy plain of the Camargue the Rhône delta, the soil is mostly a mixture of round pebbles (\"galets\") similar to Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and sandy alluvial deposit and red shale. The soil depth from 3 to 15 metres is largely responsible for the variations of style within this AOC. The climate is Mediterranean, similar to that of the Rhône valley, but is characterised by its proximity to the coast and the sea breezes. The wines are produced in selected parcels of the following 24 communes: Aubord, Beaucaire, Beauvoisin, Bellegarde, Bernis, Bezouce, Bouillargues, Le Cailar, Caissargues, Garons, Générac, Jonquières-Saint-Vincent, Lédenon, Manduel, Meynes, Milhaud, Gard, Nîmes, Redessan, Rodilhan, Saint-Gilles, Sernhac, Uchaud, Vauvert, and Vestric-et-Candiac.

They can be consumed alone or as an accompaniment to seafood and grilled fish. ### Rosé Some rosé is made as a by-product from the production of red wines, with the same permitted percentages of grape varieties, with a possible maximum of 10% of white grapes from the allowed varieties for the white wines.

# Simon de Gunby **Simon** was a 13th-century prelate based in Moray, Scotland. Professor Donald Watt has shown (*Fasti*, 219), through the extrapolation of indirect evidence, that his surname was almost certainly \"de Gunby\". He occurs as Dean of Moray in 1230. Simon held this position until, after the death of Andreas de Moravia, he was elected as the new Bishop of Moray. A Papal mandate of 3 March 1244, from Pope Innocent IV authorized the Bishop of Caithness (Gilbert de Moravia) and one Martin, clerk of the papal *Camera Apostolica*, to inquire about the legality of the election and if appropriate confirm and consecrate Simon. This process was apparently successful for Simon, as he held the episcopate until his death in 1251

# For a Rocker \"**For a Rocker**\" is a 1983 single by Jackson Browne. It charted at #8 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. The third single released from his seventh album, *Lawyers in Love*, it\'s also the eighth and last track on it. It peaked at #45 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song was something of a departure for Browne, a straight-out uptempo party number: \"I got a shirt so *unbelievably* bright, I\'m gonna dig it out and wear it tonight.\" *Rolling Stone* commented on its apparent attempt to emulate Bruce Springsteen\'s work, and indeed Browne used it to close out concerts in the arenas he was now playing. This song was written as a tribute to James Honeyman-Scott, the guitar player for the Pretenders, who had died of heart failure on June 16, 1982 at the age of 25. The reference to Peggy Sue is Jimmy\'s wife and Jenni is her sister. ## Chart positions {#chart_positions} +----------------------------------+----------+ | Chart (1983) | Peak\ | | | position | +==================================+==========+ | U.S. *Billboard* Hot 100 | 45 | +----------------------------------+----------+ | U.S

# Noel White **Noel White** `{{post-nominals|country=GBR|BEM}}`{=mediawiki} (16 December 1929 -- 30 June 2019) was a businessman, football club chairman, director and administrator from the North West of England. He was one of the founding architects of the Premier League and Life Vice President of The Football Association. ## Business ### White and Swales {#white_and_swales} White and Swales Ltd was founded in Altrincham by Noel White and Peter Swales in 1955. They initially sold Sheet Music, Records, Musical Instruments and Accessories before moving into the flourishing market of television rentals. They had by this time opened a total 15 branches in Cheshire and South Manchester. ### Bowdon Hotel {#bowdon_hotel} Following the sale of White and Swales, Noel moved on to run and own the Bowdon Hotel in Altrincham. Following major extensions and improvements, this gave the hotel a 3-star rating, which it still has. White went on to sell the Bowdon Hotel in 1986. It is currently operated under the Mercure Hotels banner. ## Football ### Altrincham F.C. {#altrincham_f.c.} Noel White first came to football prominence, when he and fellow businessman, Peter Swales took over Altrincham Football Club in February 1961. At the time Altrincham F.C. were struggling at the foot of The Cheshire County Football League and on the verge of bankruptcy. White and Swales had read a passionate letter in the local newspaper from 11-year-old Brian Lomax. White was vice-chairman of Altrincham F.C until 1967, when Peter Swales moved on to become a director at Manchester City F.C. White then became Chairman of Altrincham F.C. for 19 years before becoming a director of Liverpool Football Club in 1986. During his tenure as chairman, he and his board turned Altrincham from nobodies into one of the leading clubs outside The Football League. Upon leaving Altrincham F.C. in 1986 White was appointed club president, a position he still holds. He is also president of the Evo Stik Northern Premier League and a life member of The Football Conference. ### Liverpool F.C. {#liverpool_f.c.} White joined Liverpool F.C. in March 1986 and was a director for over 20 years, including a spell as chairman from 1990 until 1991. In October 2006, White gave an anonymous interview to the *Daily Mirror* in which he accused manager Rafael Benítez of spending money the club could not afford, and said that it was time for the board to review taking control. This ended a long association with the club of which he was briefly the chairman. ### The F.A Premier League {#the_f.a_premier_league} During his chairmanship of Liverpool F.C, Noel White, along with Martin Edwards, David Dein, Irving Scholar and Philip Carter became one of the five founding architects of the F.A. Premier League. In June 2011, on the twentieth anniversary of the \"Founder Members Agreement\" of the F.A. Premier League, the architects were presented with a framed testimonial containing the crests of the forty-five clubs that have played in the competition since its inception in 1992. ### The Football Association {#the_football_association} White\'s initial involvement with The Football Association began in 1976 when he was elected as a council member representing full member clubs in Cheshire and Merseyside. White was instrumental in helping introduce automatic promotion and relegation with the Football League a decade later. White was elected to the F.A. International Committee in 1982 and was appointed chairman in 1994. White was chairman of The Football Association\'s International Committee for 14 years until 2008. He was succeeded as chairman by Sir Dave Richards. White was elected as Life Vice President of The Football Association in 2002. ### UEFA White was appointed vice-chairman of the UEFA National Team Committee in 2002 and served for 4 years in that position. The UEFA National Team Committee represents European Nations which play in European competitions at Senior and Under-21 level. ## Awards In June 2013, Noel White was awarded a British Empire Medal for services to football as part of the Queen\'s birthday honours list.

# Gem (automobile) The **Gem** was an automobile manufactured in both Jackson, Michigan and Grand Rapids, Michigan by the Gem Motor Car Company from December, 1917 to 1919. The company was incorporated in December 1917, and early the next month it was announced that capitalization was to be \$250,000, with \$150,000 yet to be issued. The Gem was a light, assembled car with a four-cylinder G.B.&S. engine. Originally the plan was to acquire the complete chassis (from the Pontiac Chassis Company) and bodies (perhaps from Hayes) and complete the assembly of the cars in Grand Rapids. Gem planned to make some of the components itself eventually, though this appears not to have occurred. Only two models were produced, a 5-passenger touring car, selling for \$845, and a light delivery van

# Bolection A **bolection** is a decorative moulding which projects beyond the face of a panel or frame in raised panel walls, doors, and fireplaces. It is commonly used when the meeting surfaces are at different levels, especially to hold floating panels in place while allowing them to expand and contract with changes in temperature and humidity. Also sometimes called **balection** or **bilection**, the term is of uncertain etymology and was first used in the early 18th century. Bolection was used to great effect by Christopher Wren.`{{where|date=November 2015}}`{=mediawiki} Bolection mouldings are usually rabbeted on their underside to the depth of the lower element, but attached to the upper (when panels are allowed to float) or both (when merely decorative). Bolection mouldings were also regularly used in the 16th and 17th century for picture frames. On frames of this type, the highest point of the moulding is close to the sight edge (the inner edge of the frame which meets the picture), from which the profile descends towards its lowest point at its outer edge. Such frames are sometimes described as bolection frames but more often as \"reverse profile\" frames

# Phytoecdysteroid **Phytoecdysteroids** are plant-derived ecdysteroids. Phytoecdysteroids are a class of chemicals that plants synthesize for defense against phytophagous (plant eating) insects. These compounds are mimics of hormones used by arthropods in the molting process known as ecdysis. It is presumed that these chemicals act as endocrine disruptors for insects, so that when insects eat the plants with these chemicals they may prematurely molt, lose weight, or suffer other metabolic damage and die. Chemically, phytoecdysteroids are classed as triterpenoids, the group of compounds that includes triterpene saponins, phytosterols, and phytoecdysteroids. Plants, but not animals, synthesize phytoecdysteroids from mevalonic acid in the mevalonate pathway of the plant cell using acetyl-CoA as a precursor. Some ecdysteroids, including ecdysone and 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), are produced by both plants and arthopods. Besides those, over 250 ecdysteroid analogs have been identified so far in plants, and it has been theorized that there are over 1,000 possible structures which might occur in nature. Many more plants have the ability to \"turn on\" the production of phytoecdysteroids when under stress, animal attack or other conditions. The term phytoecdysteroid can also apply to ecdysteroids found in fungi, even though fungi are not plants. The more precise term *mycoecdysteroid* has been applied to these chemicals. Some plants and fungi that produce phytoecdysteroids include *Achyranthes bidentata,* *Tinospora cordifolia*, *Pfaffia paniculata*, *Leuzea carthamoides*, *Rhaponticum uniflorum*, *Serratula coronata*, *Cordyceps*, and *Asparagus*. ## Effect on arthopods {#effect_on_arthopods} It is generally believed that phytoecdysteroid exert a negative effect on pests. Indeed, phytoecdysteroids sprayed onto plants have been shown to reduce the infestation of nematodes and insects. However, in very limited scenarios, phytoecdysteroids may end up becoming beneficial for the insect. For example, ginsenosides are able to activate the ecdysteroid receptor in fruit flies, but this activation happens to compensate for age-related reduction in 20E levels. ## Effect on plants {#effect_on_plants} Phytoecdysteroids have also been reported to influence the germination of other plants, making it an allelochemical. The plant producing phytoecdysteroids may also be affected by ecdysteroids, mainly by increasing the rate of photosynthesis. ## Effect on mammals {#effect_on_mammals} They are not toxic to mammals and occur in the human diet. 20-hydroxyecdysone is a drug candidate, but this does not mean dietary amounts have any effect

# Domestic violence in Russia Domestic violence is a severe issue in Russia. According to Human Rights Watch, citing RIA Novosti, as many as 36,000 women and 26,000 children faced daily abuse at home in 2013. According to official MVD data, in 2015 around 1060 people died of domestic violence in Russia. Of them, 756 were men and 304 women. According to an independent study of 2,200 women in fifty cities and towns in Russia, 70% have experienced at least one form of gender-based violence in the home---physical, psychological, economic, or sexual. Alcoholism is often a factor, as Russia is one of the hardest drinking nations of the world, taking 26th place by alcohol consumption per capita in 2018. In January 2017, Russian lawmakers voted, 380--3, to decriminalize certain forms of domestic violence. Under the new law, first-time offenses that do not result in \"serious bodily harm\" carry a maximum fine of 30,000 rubles, up to 15 days\' administrative arrest, or up to 120 hours of community service. According to recent research commissioned by the State Duma, domestic violence takes place in approximately one out of ten Russian families. Seventy percent of those surveyed report that they have experienced or are experiencing domestic violence: 80% are women, with children and elderly people coming behind. Moreover, in 77% of surveyed cases, physical, psychological and economic violence go together. More than 35% of victims did not go to the police for assistance, citing shame, fear and mistrust. ## Death statistics {#death_statistics} On October 30, 2019, during the hearings in the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation, with reference to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the following figures were published: in 2018, 253 women were killed in family conflicts, and in general, over the past decade, this figure was about 300 people annually. The publication of Moskovsky Komsomolets in December 2019 supplemented the overall picture with the data of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for 2016 and 2017. It also provides figures for the first half of 2019: 233 men and 115 women. ### Data on annual deaths of 14,000 women {#data_on_annual_deaths_of_14000_women} At the same time, it is widely said and written that 14,000 women die annually from domestic violence in Russia with a slight difference in wording: according to their different versions, women die at the hands of their husbands, at the hands of lovers, husbands and roommates, etc. For example, Human Rights Watch report from 1997 cites Ekaterina Lakhova and reports 14,000 killed women. Lt. Gen Mikhail Artamoshkin in a 2008 interview again mentions same number, as does ECHR, which cites Russian non-governmental organization ANNA as do other sources. #### Origin of the number {#origin_of_the_number} Marina Pisklakova-Parker, director of the ANNA Center, explained that the 14,000 annual victims ("statistics on the killings of women which many refer to") is a figure published in 1995 in a report by the Russian Federation that was presented to the UN Committee on the Implementation of the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women. Pisklakova-Parker believes that in 1993 this figure was true. Alexander Kovalenin, an opponent of the domestic violence law, agrees with Pisklakova-Parker that 14,000 is the figure from 1993, but considers it to be initially incorrect: > \"This is the 1993 figure, an estimate of the total number of deliberate killings of women (not only in the family), inserted by someone from the Ministry of Labor into a Russian report to the UN Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women.\" This indicator, according to Kovalenin, was used again in 1999, in the fifth report, and was reproduced for 20--25 years without rechecking. ## Violent crime statistics {#violent_crime_statistics} According to Rosstat, the number of victims of crimes involving violent actions against a family member in 2017 was (by sex) 25,700 women and 10,400 men. Year Total of them women Spouses Of them women Sons or daughters of them women ------ -------- --------------- --------- --------------- ------------------- --------------- 2012 34,026 24,231 12,954 11,640 7,345 3,697 2013 38,235 27,993 14,565 13,269 7,731 4,077 2014 42,829 31,358 16,671 15,246 8,871 4,722 2015 50,780 36,493 19,998 17,908 11,181 5,809 2016 65,543 49,765 29,788 27,256 12,314 6,419 2017 36,037 25,667 15,504 13,360 8,020 3,911 2018 33,235 23,518 14,722 12,516 7,142 3,584 : Number of victims of a family abuse When considering the data on violent crimes against family members, it is noticeable that until the beginning of 2017 the number of victims was growing, but in 2017 it unexpectedly dropped to 36 thousand (a year earlier it was 65.5 thousand). The decrease took place after the State Duma partially decriminalized beatings in January 2017, after which physical abuse without serious consequences for health during family conflicts became an administrative offense (not criminal) in cases where it is not a relapse.

# Domestic violence in Russia ## 2000s In 2008 a representative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs Lt. Gen Mikhail Artamoshkin expressed his concerns over the country\'s crime rate, that had doubled in the five years between 2002 and 2006. He emphasized that also domestic violence had increased so that up to 40 percent of all serious violent crimes were committed within families. About two-thirds of premeditated murders and grievous bodily harm was done in intimate relations or within families. The violence in one form or another was observed in almost every fourth family. The reasons for domestic crimes were different and included quarrels and scandals, hostile relations on the basis of families\' problems, housing and domestic conflicts, which were often of long-lasting character. As the main causes over the whole population Artamoshkin referred to \"low morale\" and income problems, while in wealthy families crimes happened also due to jealousy and avarice. High unemployment frustrated people and led to the abuse of alcohol and violence towards women, children and adolescents. Artamoshkin stated that the police officers of districts had started to work with families, in co-operation with child protection officials; and that, as a result of the preventive work, the annual cases of domestic violence had decreased by 25--30 percent. Another factor is the decline in alcohol consumption, with alcohol consumption down 40% since the early 2000s according to the World Health Organization. In a 2003 press release, Amnesty International claimed that 36,000 women in the Russian Federation were beaten by their husbands or partners every day. The situation was exacerbated by the lack of statistical data on violent crimes, which took into account the nature of relationship between the offender and the victim as well as gender breakdown, and by the attitude of law enforcement officers that did not regard such violence as a serious crime, but rather, as a \"private matter\" between the spouses and avoid to \"interfere with family scandals\". A 2008 article published in *Journal of Interpersonal Violence* regarding domestic violence among Russian college students found that \"High prevalence rates were found for all types of violence, aggression, and \[sexual\] coercion. Consistent with previous research, male and female students were about equally likely to be victims and perpetrators of all violent and aggressive actions.\" ### Police statistics {#police_statistics} Official statistics from the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD) for 2008: - Every fourth family in the country has experienced violence of different forms - Two-thirds of homicides are caused by family or household motives. - Up to 40% of all serious violent crimes are committed within families. According to the official data from Russian Police, 1,060 people were killed in their own families in year 2015. 304 of them were women, 756 -- men and 36 children.

# Domestic violence in Russia ## 2010s {#s_1} According to figures reported by the western media in 2013, women\'s deaths due to domestic violence had not been markedly diminished in a decade. BBC reported information from a Russian interior ministry that 600,000 women were physically or verbally abused at home. Yelena Mizulina, a member of the Federation Council, cited much lower figures for 2015, reporting that around 300 women per year died at the hands of husbands or other relatives and accusing feminists of inflating the figures. ### #IAmNotAfraidToSayIt In July 2016, Ukrainian activist Anastasia Melnichenko published a post on Facebook in which she recounted her personal experience of sexual abuse and repudiated the idea that she was somehow to blame. She included the Ukrainian-language hashtag #яНеБоюсьСказати, which translates to #IAmNotAfraidToSayIt or #IAmNotAfraidToSpeak in English; #яНеБоюсьСказать in Russian. Her post was widely shared, and soon afterwards women in Russia and Ukraine began posting their own stories of sexual harassment and assault. Many said it was the first time they had spoken of the incidents. By August 2016, almost 200,000 people had expressed support or shared their stories on social media using her hashtag. The responses were mixed. Some who commented were supportive, but many others, including journalists, psychologists, and Orthodox Christian representatives, claimed the stories were fabricated, exaggerated, misandrist, or \"undermining traditional values.\" According to a 2016 report from Global Information Society Watch, \"gender-based violence in Russia is an everyday affair.\" As the Soviet Union lacked any sort of gender violence-preventing legislation, sexual assault has continued not to be taken seriously in the countries that emerged after its collapse, especially in Russia under Vladimir Putin. Even the most egregious rape cases, which at one time would have been universally condemned, often result in no punishment for the perpetrators. ### Decriminalization In February 2017, with the support of the Russian Orthodox Church, Russia decriminalized domestic violence in cases where it does not cause \"substantial bodily harm\" (such as broken bones or a concussion) and does not happen more than once a year. Some forms of domestic violence and of other cases of battery against relatives became an administrative offense. As a result, domestic violence increased while reporting declined sharply, and police began to refuse to investigate domestic violence cases. Marina Pisklakova-Parker, director of the Anna Centre, an organization that helps domestic violence victims, said decriminalization has proven \"very dangerous to the safety of thousands of Russian women.\" In December 2018, Russia\'s top human rights official, Tatyana Moskalkova, called decriminalization a \"mistake\" and said new legislation was needed to combat domestic violence. NGOs filed a complaint with the United Nations in 2013 on behalf of Shema Timagova, a Chechen woman whose husband attempted to murder her with an axe. A Chechen court effectively cleared the husband, finding that the woman had \"provoked\" him into attacking her. In April 2019, in the UN\'s first ruling on domestic violence in Russia, the UN Committee for the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) ruled in Timagova\'s favor and ordered Russia to pay her \"adequate financial compensation.\" CEDAW further stated that Russia must amend its laws to criminalize gender-based violence and properly investigate allegations of violence against women. Russia was given six months to submit a written response detailing the steps taken with regard to the case. ## Alcohol A 1997 report published in the *Journal of Family Violence*, found that among male perpetrators of spousal homicide, 60--75% of offenders had been drinking prior to the incident. A survey conducted by the *Scientific Research Institute of the Family*, 29% of people responding to the question \"Why are children beaten in families with which you are acquainted?\" reported that the violence was carried out by drunks and alcoholics. In a 2004 study of domestic violence in the Central Black Earth Region of Russia, 77% of offenders of violent crime (towards family members) were frequent drinkers -- 12% engaged in regular binge drinking (three or four times a month), 30% three times a week or more, and 35% every day or almost every day

# New London Planters The **New London Planters** were a minor league baseball team based in New London, Connecticut, that entered the now defunct Connecticut League in 1913, which had recently renamed itself the Eastern Association with the arrival of teams outside of the state. After finishing one game under .500 in their first year, the Planters won the 1914 championship, compiling an 81--35 record. Following the disbandment of the Eastern Association after the season, a new league called the Eastern League was formed, which started play in 1916. This outfit, a Class B organization, featured teams from Connecticut to Maine, which is not to be confused with a top-level league, the Eastern League, which had changed its name to the International League four years earlier. In the Eastern League\'s first season, New London and Portland proved to be the teams to beat. After a successful start, the Planters were overtaken by Portland in mid-July, but later were able to regain the lead and eventually win the pennant by four games, finishing with an 86--34 record. The 1916 Planters were recognized as one of the 100 greatest minor league teams of all time

# Court of Chancery (Ireland) The **Court of Chancery** was a court which exercised equitable jurisdiction in Ireland until its abolition as part of the reform of the court system in 1877. It was the court in which the Lord Chancellor of Ireland presided. Its final sitting place was at the Four Courts in Dublin, which still stands. ## History The Chancery in Ireland was set up in 1232, following the model of the Court of Chancery of England. The court was abolished under the Supreme Court of Judicature Act (Ireland) 1877 and its jurisdiction transferred to the Chancery Division of the newly established High Court of Justice in Ireland, while the Lord Chancellor presided over the Court of Appeal in Ireland. In 1920, the High Court was split into separate courts for Northern Ireland and Southern Ireland under the Government of Ireland Act 1920. While the Northern Ireland court still maintains a separate Chancery Division, the Irish Free State abolished the divisions of the High Court under the Courts of Justice Act 1924. The High Court of Ireland still maintains a \"chancery list\", although any judge of the Court may now exercise its jurisdiction in equity. ## Lord Chancellor of Ireland {#lord_chancellor_of_ireland} In the early centuries of the office, the Lord Chancellor was a senior cleric, usually though not invariably an Englishman by birth. In the 15th and 16th centuries, a nobleman sometimes held the office, acting through a deputy. From the Reformation on, he was usually a trained lawyer, though the practice of appointing a senior cleric only ended with Michael Boyle, Archbishop of Armagh, who retired in 1686. In addition to his judicial functions, the Lord Chancellor had a key political role. Until the Acts of Union 1800, he was Speaker of the Irish House of Lords even though he often did not hold a peerage. After the Union, he was still required to advise both British and Irish Governments on a range of political and legal matters. He was often called on to steer legislation through the House of Lords: Lord O\'Hagan was created a peer so that he might assist in passing the Supreme Court of Judicature Act. ## Other office-holders {#other_office_holders} The office of Master of the Rolls in Ireland existed from the 14th century. Originally his functions were clerical, but in time he became in effect an assistant Lord Chancellor. In the 17th and 18th centuries, the office was notoriously a sinecure for absentee English politicians, but from 1800 on a determined effort was made to appoint judges of real ability. In 1867 a new office of Vice-Chancellor was created to assist the Master of the Rolls at first instance. It was abolished in 1904; throughout its existence, the office was only held by one man, Hedges Eyre Chatterton. The Court of Appeal in Chancery in Ireland was created in 1857. The Lord Chancellor sat as a judge of appeal, with a single Lord Justice of Appeal in Chancery in Ireland to assist him. The drawback to this arrangement was that the two might disagree as Lord O\'Hagan and Jonathan Christian frequently did. In contrast, when the Court of Appeal in Ireland was set up in 1878, it sat as a bench of three. ## Business of the Court {#business_of_the_court} Originally the Lord Chancellor was \"keeper of the king\'s conscience\", charged with giving relief in any case where the courts of common law could not supply a remedy. In time, as in England, equity developed into a fully-fledged legal system in its own right, parallel to the common law. O\'Flanagan, writing in 1870, noted that he had examined the Calendar of the Irish Court of Chancery in the reigns of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I, and found the ordinary business of the Court then to be quite similar to that of his own time: injunctions to stay proceedings in a common law court, proceedings to compel a trustee to make over an estate to the plaintiff, discovery of deeds, and actions to set aside deeds obtained by fraud. Apart from the ordinary business of the Court, certain functions were reserved to the Lord Chancellor: care of minors and wards of court, discipline of solicitors and coroners, and removal of justices of the peace. In 1924 the special functions of the Lord Chancellor were vested in the Chief Justice of Ireland; in 1936 responsibility for minors and wards of court was transferred to the President of the High Court and in 1960 discipline of solicitors was transferred to the President of the High Court

# Sneakers (band) **Sneakers** was a Danish rock band active from 1979 to 1985, and briefly reunited in 1998. Among its members were notably lead vocalist Sanne Salomonsen and on keyboards Morten Kærså. The group had big hits with \"Sui-Sui\" and particularly \"Woodoo\". Sneakers really made Sanne Salomonsen a pop icon in Denmark, and she continued with her solo career after Sneakers. ## History Sneakers was formed in May 1979 in Copenhagen by keyboardist Morten Kærså and guitarist Poul Halberg as the main players. Sanne Salomonsen joined the year after, and the band released its first album, *Sneakers* in 1980. It became a success, which was followed the year after by the even more popular *Sui-Sui* with tracks, such as \"Bellevue\" and the title track of the album. With Sanne Salomonsen as lead vocalist, the band performed in Denmark with great success. There were two more studio albums, and the group was then dissolved in February 1985. In the subsequent years, compilation albums were released including some rarities. Sneakers was reunited for a short while in 1998 to promote the compilation album *Sneakers Greatest* released in 1997, and performed at Grøn Koncert, as well as Midtfyns Festival the same year. After Sneakers, members have continued to make their mark on the Danish scene in the bands Moonjam, Halberg Larsen, Danseorkestret and others, while Sanne Salomonsen mostly found success as a solo artist. ## Members - Morten Kærså: keyboard & vocals (1979--1985) - Sanne Salomonsen: vocals (1979--1985) - Klaus Menzer: drums (1979--1985) - Jacob Andersen: percussion (1979--1985) - Poul Halberg: guitar (1979--1980) - Moussa Diallo: bass (1979--1980) - Mikkel Nordsø: guitar (1980--1985) - Christian Dietl: bass (1980--1985) ## Discography ### Studio albums {#studio_albums} - 1980: *Sneakers* - 1981: *Sui-Sui* - 1982: *Rou\'let* - 1984: *Katbeat* ### Compilation albums {#compilation_albums} - 1988: *Sneakers / Sui-Sui* - 1994: *Totale* - 1997: *Sneakers Greatest* (2 CDs) - 2005: *Woodoo* - 2005: *Tag med mig* - 2005: *De kender ikke Jimmi* - 2008: *Sneakers & Sanne Salomonsen* (3 CDs) - 2008: *Dejlige danske \..

# Form (exercise) : *See Kata for \"form\" in the context of martial arts.* **Form** is a specific way of performing a movement, often a strength training exercise, to avoid injury and maximize benefit. ## Purposes Exercises or drills in sport have recognized ways of performing movements for two purposes: ### Avoiding injury {#avoiding_injury} By using good and proper form, the risk of injury is lowered. A lack of proper form commonly results in injury or a lack of effect from the exercise being performed ### Maximizing benefit {#maximizing_benefit} Good form ensures that the movement only uses the main muscles, and avoids recruiting secondary muscles. As a muscle fatigues, the body attempts to compensate by recruiting other muscle groups and transferring force generation to non-fatigued units. This reduces the benefits in strength or size gain experienced by the muscles as they are not worked to failure

# Problematic integration theory **Problematic Integration Theory** is a theory of communication that addresses the processes and dynamics of how people receive, evaluate, and respond to information and experiences. The premises of PI are based on the view that message processing, specifically the development of probabilistic and evaluative orientations (our perceptions of something\'s likelihood of occurring and its value, respectively), is a social and cultural construction. In situations where there is agreement between probabilistic orientation (a person\'s constructed belief about an object\'s likelihood, i.e., how likely something is to occur) and evaluative orientation (a person\'s constructed belief about an object\'s value), integration is in harmony, i.e., not problematic. However, when there is disagreement between these orientations about an object (i.e., an event, thing, person, idea, outcome, etc.), then integration becomes problematic. This disharmony leads to conflict and discomfort, which can manifest itself as cognitive, communicative, affective, and/or motivational. ## History Austin Babrow first introduced the theory of Problematic Integration (PI) in 1992. Babrow brought together a diverse and interdisciplinary literature (from the field of communication and related disciplines, like psychology, sociology, and philosophy) to serve as building blocks for his new theory. Among the theoretical underpinnings that support PI are: uncertainty reduction theory; the theory of belief in a just world; analysis of decision-making; the theory of and motivation and self-esteem; and cognitive dissonance. However, despite integrating elements from these theories, PI has striking differences (e.g., unlike URT, PI does not assume that uncertainty is an undesirable situation, nor does it suggest that resolution of uncertainty is always necessary or desirable). ## Concepts Problematic Integration is a type of message-processing communication theory that relates to theories of decision making and persuasion. Problematic Integration Theory (PI) proposes that: (1) people orient themselves to the world by forming both probabilistic and evaluative orientations; (2) that probability and evaluation are not independent from one another; (3) that probability and evaluation are socially based and socially constructed, and that probability and evaluation are integral to our daily experience; and, (4) that integration of these orientations can be problematic. Probabilistic orientation is an assessment of the likelihood of an event or outcome. Evaluative orientation is an assessment of the favorability of an outcome. Often, assessments of probability and value are cooperative and easily integrated. However, as the theory\'s title implies, there are occasions when integration becomes problematic. PI proposes that integration becomes more difficult as: 1. clarity of object probability decreases 2. object value conflicts increase 3. or, there is an increase in the divergence between object expectation and desire Essentially, problematic integration is what we experience when our probabilistic and evaluative orientations conflict with one another, causing instability and disharmony. Conflict arising from problematic integration may or may not be significant. The more important a value and the more central an issue (or object, to use PI terminology) is to one\'s beliefs or cultural values, the more likely that problematic integration will cause greater discomfort. ### Assumptions of problematic integration theory {#assumptions_of_problematic_integration_theory} Babrow identified four distinct manifestations, or forms, of problematic integration: 1. Divergence - occurs when there is a difference between reality and our desired outcome, and refers to a situation in which the outcome is uncertain or unknown 2. Ambiguity - occurs when it is unclear or highly uncertain what the probability or value of an object is uncertain. Babrow stated that in such situations, the outcome is unknown, and the probability of the outcome is restricted. 3. Ambivalence - occurs when an individual has to choose between two similarly valued or mutually exclusive alternatives. 4. Impossibility - has a firm outcome. A response of denial can occur, and this can lead to conflict. The first of these integrative predicaments, divergence, arises when there is a discrepancy between what we believe to be true or to be likely to occur and what we want to be true (the desired outcome). Ambiguity arises when the probability or value of an object (i.e., situation, outcome, thing, etc.) is unclear or highly uncertain. Babrow explained, that "in ambiguous situations, neither the outcome, nor the probability of the outcome is known, though the latter has restrictions" (Babrow, 1992, p. 112). Uncertainty occurs when an unknown factor obscures or complicates the development of one\'s orientation (probability and evaluation) toward an outcome. Ambiguity has also been described as uncertainty about what is unknown. Ambivalence is borne from one of two conditions: (1) an individual is forced to choose between two similarly valued alternatives; or (2) an individual is forced to choose between mutually exclusive alternatives. The last form of PI, impossibility, occurs upon the realization or belief that an outcome is will not happen. Impossibility is recognized as different from a form of divergence, because only impossibility denotes a sense of certainty. Responses to impossibility can range from a sense of futility, to one of increased motivation to deny the impossibility. All of these situations give rise to conflict.

# Problematic integration theory ## Concepts ### The role of communication in problematic integration theory {#the_role_of_communication_in_problematic_integration_theory} Communication is both a source of, a medium, and a method for resolving conflict. Communication is a source of problematic integration in that knowledge and evaluative orientations are the result of communication, probabilistic and evaluative orientations are based on and developed through message and meaning-making (forms of communication), and communication is itself \"an object of thought\" and is therefore an object \"of probabilistic and evaluative orientations.\" It is also possible that a person experiencing problematic integration will seek new information or new sources of information to bolster or reinforce a desired probabilistic or evaluative orientation. This could also be seen engaging in as a form of cognitive dissonance. Communication is seen as a medium of problematic integration because communication inherently involves or is based on probabilistic and evaluative orientations, or communication is about probability and value. Communication is influenced by and formed from culture; thus, communication is a medium of PI, as and the formation of probabilistic and evaluative orientations derives from cultural frameworks. Lastly, communication is a resource for PI as we try to resolve and manage conflict caused by problematic integration through communication (internal, interpersonal, etc.). Because communication may be a source, medium, and/or method for resolving problematic integration, it is possible for conflict to manifest as \"extended chains\" of problematic integration. Such extended chains occur through forms, foci, and layers of experience. By extended chains, it is meant that experiences of problematic integration and efforts to resolve problematic integration may lead to development of a new form of PI. As conflict between probability and value develops around a focal point (or topic), it can lead to conflict regarding a new topic (e.g., stress and anxiety about earning an end-of-year bonus at work can lead to new worries about personal finances, sense of self-worth, and/or one\'s status and career prospects at work). Problematic integration becomes shared (or chained) through layers of experience when people discuss and relate their struggles with others. In this process of communicating our conflicts, others may share in our problematic integration through empathy and sympathy. Babrow proposed that communication becomes more important to resolve problematic integration as the conflict or integration becomes more difficult.

# Problematic integration theory ## Concepts ### Critique and analysis {#critique_and_analysis} As mentioned above, Problematic Integration Theory is a type of communication theory that examines how we make meaning of information and experiences, and how we handle uncertainty. PI differs from Uncertainty Reduction Theory and other axiomatic and predictive communication theories in a number of ways. PI proposes that there are numerous and varied meanings of the term uncertainty. Unlike URT, PI predicts that experiencing uncertainty does not automatically lead to a desire to reduce the uncertainty. Further, PI proposes that: (1) uncertainty is not always \"bad; (2) uncertainty has a single or narrow meaning; (3) reduction of uncertainty is not always possible; (4) any resolution of uncertainty is not necessarily final; and, (5) integrative dilemmas do not necessarily have an identifiable or singular cause. Problematic Integration Theory (PI) falls under the socio-psychological and socio-cultural communication traditions. PI began with a focus on intra- and inter-personal contexts, but has been applicable in many contexts, including interpersonal, small group, and organizational; thus, it has a broad scope of application. PI is considered an interpretive/hermeneutic approach of theory rather than positivistic/empirical (i.e., predictive) or critical. ### Problematic Integration Theory and Pregnancy {#problematic_integration_theory_and_pregnancy} Ashley Archiopoli applies Problematic Integration Theory in her research to examine how pregnant women have been able to cope and build resilience during the COVID-19 pandemic. Through a qualitative analysis of interviews with pregnant women, Archiopoli found that these women used strategies including reframing, using support systems, and engaging in self-care to manage the impact of the pandemic on their pregnancy. Kami A. Kosenko uses Problematic Integration Theory to explore the various ways that individuals experience infertility and the impact this has on their sense of identity and belonging. She examines the various forms of integration that can be experienced in the context of infertility -- including positive, negative and ambivalent -- and the various factors which shape the integration process, such as the couple relationship, social environment, the medical system, and the individual\'s own beliefs and values. She argues that infertility can be a source of disruption to an individual\'s sense of identity, and that focusing on the integration process and the various factors which influence it can help individuals better manage their experience of infertility. Beth Sundstrom uses Problematic Integration Theory to analyze how pregnancy ambivalence and contraceptive effectiveness can be integrated in contraceptive decision-making. Understanding how these PI factors interact with each other can help provide more effective contraceptive counseling and improve contraceptive outcomes. (Sundstrom et al., 2017) ### Problematic Integration Theory and Chronic Illness {#problematic_integration_theory_and_chronic_illness} PI has been used within the realm of Health Communication studies in order to assess methods of educating, and communicating with, patients facing a variety chronic or life-threatening conditions. In 2003, Babrow received the prestigious Woolbert Award for scholarship of exceptional originality and influence from the National Communication Association [1](http://www.natcom.org/nca/Template2.asp?sid=9) for his work with PI. Maria G. Checton\'s findings indicate that a patient and their partner mutually influence each other in the management of chronic illness, and that communication and emotional support are vital components of successful management. Furthermore, participants identified the need for medical professionals to acknowledge the partner\'s role and provide support to both the patient and their partner. This highlights the importance of integrating the patient and their partner in the management of chronic illness, which is what problematic integration theory aims to do. Jennifer E. Ohs uses Problematic integration theory to understand how family members come to a shared understanding of an end-of-life decision, how they experience challenges in the process, and how they respond to those challenges. Communication, negotiation, and understanding between family members may require outside help such as professional counseling or spiritual guidance to facilitate the process. Successful integration of perspectives is essential for families to reach a decision about end-of-life care. Elisia L. Cohen applies PI to her research to understand the complexities of the experience of African American women to are treated for cancer. In her research, Cohen found that African American women often confront a double stigma when dealing with cancer and must negotiate their identity in order to claim cancer as their own. This process of naming and claiming cancer has been found to be an important part of the healing process for African American women, as it allows them to take ownership of their experience and create a sense of agency. Through this study, Cohen provides an important insight into the complexities of cancer and the role of identity in the healing process. ### Related work: Cognitive Dissonance Theory & Uncertainty Management Theory {#related_work_cognitive_dissonance_theory_uncertainty_management_theory} PI theory is an extension of Cognitive Dissonance Theory. *Cognitive Dissonance Theory* is a psychological concept that explains how individuals attempt to reduce the discomfort they experience when they are presented with conflicting beliefs, ideas, or values. It suggests that people will attempt to make things consistent in order to reduce the dissonance they feel. We can differentiate between the two theories by thinking about Cognitive Dissonance Theory as a theory that focuses specifically on the psychological discomfort of conflicting beliefs, ideas, or values. Problematic Integration Theory examines how individuals perceive, evaluate, and respond to uncertain situations, without necessarily implying that a resolution to the situation is necessary or desirable. Babrow\'s theory shares some common ideas with Uncertainty Management Theory (UMT), which was developed by Dale Brashers (2007, A theory of communication and uncertainty management. In B. Whaley & W. Samter (Eds.), Explaining communication theory (pp. 201--218). Mahwah, NJ: Lawrence Erlbaum). For a comparison of the perspectives, see Bradac (2001).

# Problematic integration theory ## Current usage {#current_usage} The complexity of PI and the multiplicity of its manifestations makes it difficult to operationalize, measure, and apply. However, this breadth of scope also indicates that it may have extremely wide-ranging applications and opportunities for research. Because the concepts within PI are based on cultural definitions, PI is seen as being overly responsive to external conceptual influences; thus, making it potentially falsifiable. PI has been used extensively in analysis of the health care system, particularly in regard to communication between health care providers and patients. The health-care system inherently involves communication between health-care providers (e.g., doctors, nurses, various therapists, dietitians, social workers, counselors, etc.), patients, and members of the patient\'s social and support network (e.g., family members, friends, members of support groups, etc.). Because understanding and communicating diagnoses, prognoses, treatment plans, expectations, and more can be complicated and because this communication relies on the communication skills of the various people involved, health-care situations offer ample opportunity to examine problematic integration. Research in this area has revealed that information is used to decrease and increase uncertainty, depending on the situation. In some cases, patients may seek information to reduce stressful uncertainty. However, in other cases, the care team and the patient may need to increase uncertainty in order to increase optimism and allow for re-evaluation of a given situation. PI has been used to study communication involving various medical issues, including breast cancer, the treatment of diabetes in the elderly, end-of-life issues, and pregnancy. Problematic Integration has also been used to evaluate organizational communication. Organizations, comprising networks and hierarchies of individuals, by their very nature, create complex webs of various dynamic social and cultural relationships. Moreover, most organizations do not exist for themselves, but for an external audience, client, or consumer; thereby, increasing the nature, types, and numbers of relationships. Communication within these relationships will very likely give rise to instances of uncertainty. In the context of such complex systems of communication, PI takes on a much different appearance than intrapersonal situations. An organization\'s structure, system design, and strategy can create, maintain, or help reduce problematic integration. One area of this study has been problematic integration arising from internal bureaucracy or organizational rules or objectives and how this conflict involves matters of formal rationality (a quantitative calculation of an action or choice) or substantive rationality (a value judgment of consequences of an action or choice). In examining marketing strategies for tourism, PI has been used to suggest methods for decreasing uncertainty for potential customers and thereby increasing transactions from the on-line shoppers for the related retail businesses (\"converting lookers to bookers\"). As mentioned above, PI lends itself to application to a broad scope of issues. A few other examples of areas of interest to which PI has been applied include: - Risk study and evaluation - Family and relationships - Narrative communication - Mass media and media Studies (e.g

# John Allen (hurler) **John Allen** (born 1955) is an Irish former hurler and Gaelic footballer who played as a forward in both codes for the Cork senior teams. A dual player at the highest level, Allen spent three season with the Cork senior hurling team. During that time he won one All-Ireland winners\' medal and one Munster winners\' medal. Allen also spent five seasons with the Cork senior football team, during which time he won one Munster winners\' medal and one National Football League winners\' medal. At club level Allen is a dual All-Ireland medalist with St Finbarr\'s, while he also collected several provincial and club championship winners\' medals in both codes. In retirement from playing Allen turned his hand to coaching and team management. A successful few years as masseuse and selector with the Cork senior hurling team led to the beginning of a two-year tenure as team manager. From 2011 until 2013, Allen was the manager of the Limerick senior hurling team. ## Playing career {#playing_career} ### Club Allen experienced a hugely successful club career with the St Finbarr\'s club. He was just out of the under-21 grade when Allen won his first county football championship medal. A 1--10 to 1--7 defeat of St Michael\'s in 1976 secured \"the Barr\'s\" first championship since 1959. In 1977 Allen won his first county hurling championship medal following a 1--17 to 1--5 trouncing of reigning All-Ireland champions Glen Rovers. He later added a Munster medal to his collection following a victory over Sixmilebridge in a replay of the final. Rathnure from Wexford provided the opposition in the subsequent All-Ireland decider, however, a 2--7 to 0--9 score line gave \"the Barr\'s\" the title. It was Allen\'s first All-Ireland medal. Two years later Allen secured a second county football championship medal. He later won his first Munster medal following a 0--10 to 0--4 defeat of Kilrush Shamrocks. A 3--9 to 0--8 defeat of St. Grellan\'s gave Allen an All-Ireland medal. In 1980 he won his second county hurling and third county football championship medals following defeats of Glen Rovers and UCC. It was the first of three successive hurling championships for the club. After missing the Munster hurling decider, Allen was back on the team for the 1981 All-Ireland final against Ballyhale Shamrocks. A 1--15 to 1--11 defeat followed for St. Finbarr\'s. In spite of missing the provincial hurling showpiece, Allen secured another Munster club football medal. A 1--8 to 0--6 defeat of Walterstown gave Allen a second successive All-Ireland football medal. After surrendering their titles in 1981, St. Finbarr\'s returned the following year with Allen winning a fourth county football championship medal. This was later converted into a third Munster football medal. Allen won a fifth and final county hurling championship medal in 1984. The following year he won his fifth county football championship following a 1--10 to 0--9 defeat of Clonakilty. A fourth Munster medal was secured by Allen in 1986 as the club represented the county in the provincial series. A three-point defeat of Clann na nGael gave Allen his third All-Ireland medal. This win effectively brought the curtain down on his club career. ### Inter-county {#inter_county} Allen first came to prominence on the inter-county scene as a member of the Cork minor football team in 1973. He won a Munster medal that year following a 1--13 to 3--5 defeat of Kerry. By 1976 Allen had joined the Cork under-21 hurling team. He collected a Munster medal in this grade that year as Clare were accounted for. He also won an all Ireland medal defeating Kilkenny in the final By this stage Allen had already joined the Cork senior hurling team. He came on as a substitute to win a Munster medal following a 3--15 to 4--5 trouncing of Limerick in 1976. Cork later went on to claim the All-Ireland title, however, Allen was an unused substitute in that game. Cork retained both their Munster and All-Ireland crowns in 1977 with Allen remaining as a member of the extended panel. In 1978 Cork, having secured the provincial crown for a fourth successive year, played Kilkenny in the All-Ireland decider. Allen came on as a substitute in that game as \"the Rebels\" claimed a third championship in-a-row following a 1--15 to 2--8 victory. It was Allen\'s first All-Ireland medal won on the field of play. Two years later in 1980 Allen had joined the Cork senior football team. He won a National League medal that year as Cork trounced Galway by 1--16 to 1--6. After losing eight successive Munster football finals to Kerry between 1975 and 1982, Cork fought back in 1983. Allen was at full-forward that year as \"the Rebels\" claimed the Munster title following a one-point win.

# John Allen (hurler) ## Managerial career {#managerial_career} ### Beginnings In retirement from playing Allen became involved in coaching various teams at all levels. At club level he took charge of the Sts Finbarr\'s senior football and camogie teams and Fr. O\'Neill\'s junior hurling team. From 1999 until 2001 Allen served as masseur with the Cork senior hurling team. During that period the team collected two Munster titles, as well as an All-Ireland title. He opted out for a year in 2002 but returned as a selector in 2003. That year Cork won the Munster title again, however, they lost out to Kilkenny in the All-Ireland final. The following year Allen was still a selector when Cork lost their Munster crown but won the All-Ireland title following a victory over Kilkenny. ### Cork In late October 2004 Allen succeeded Dónal O\'Grady as the Cork manager for a two-year term and was immediately charged with the task of guiding the team to a second consecutive All-Ireland title for the 2005 Championship. Allen\'s appointment as manager brought a level of continuity to the Cork senior hurling set-up. Very little changed with regard to the backroom team and the team virtually picked itself for every match. With Allen at the helm Cork reclaimed their second Munster title in three years with an exciting victory over Tipperary. The subsequent All-Ireland championship decider saw Cork take on Galway, winners of a thrilling semi-final with Kilkenny. Cork defeated Galway on a score line of 1--21 to 1--16. It was Cork\'s second championship title in-a-row and Allen\'s first as manager. In 2006 Cork launched an all-out assault on capturing a third consecutive All-Ireland title. Allen\'s side got off to a good start by retaining their Munster title following a win over Tipperary. Further victories saw Cork reach a fourth successive championship decider. Kilkenny, Cork\'s archrivals, provided the opposition once again. It was a repeat of 2004 when Kilkenny were going for three wins in-a-row, however, Cork stopped them. On this occasion the tables were turned as Kilkenny halted Cork\'s bid for a three in-a-row, defeating them by 1--16 to 1--13. Shortly after his first defeat in ten championship games Allen announced, after much speculation, that he was not seeking another term as Cork manager. ### Limerick After a five-year absence from the inter-county scene, Allen was confirmed as the new Limerick senior hurling manager on 11 October 2011 on a two-year contract, succeeding Dónal O\'Grady. On 14 July 2013, Allen guided Limerick to a first Munster final appearance in six years, with his own native Cork providing the opposition. An even first half culminated with Cork\'s Patrick Horgan receiving a red card for striking Limerick wing-back Paudie O\'Brien on the helmet under a high ball. Limerick took complete control in the second half and powered to a 0--24 to 0--15 victory. While Limerick were subsequently seen as favourites to land the All-Ireland crown, their championship campaign came to an end following an All-Ireland semi-final defeat by Clare. While the Limerick County Board had hoped that Allen would remain as manager, he announced on 9 September 2013 that he was stepping down as Limerick manager.

# How Tasty Was My Little Frenchman ***How Tasty Was My Little Frenchman*** (*Como Era Gostoso o Meu Francês*) is a Brazilian black comedy directed and co-written by Nelson Pereira dos Santos released in 1971. Almost all of the dialogue in the film was written in the Tupi language. The actors and actresses who portrayed the Tupinambas wore historically correct attire, resulting in a considerable amount of historically correct nudity and semi-nudity in many scenes. The location for the entire film was the Bay of Ilha Grande, which has 365 islands and whose shores comprise the Angra dos Reis and Parati municipalities in the state of Rio de Janeiro. ## Plot In 16th century Brazil rival French and Portuguese settlers are utilizing the indigenous people as allies in their struggle to establish control. The Tupinambás, who live in the Guanabara Bay area, are allied with the French, while the Tupiniquins are allied with the Portuguese. A Frenchman who has been captured by the Portuguese is then captured by the Tupinambás after they attack and kill a group of Portuguese. He tries to convince his captors by speaking in French (reciting the poem by Étienne Jodelle found in André Thévet\'s *Singularities of France Antarctique*) but the Tupinambás do not believe that the Frenchman was a prisoner of the Portuguese they have killed, and the chief thinks he is Portuguese because \"No Frenchman would shoot at the Tupinambá.\" The tribe\'s shaman predicted they would find a strong Portuguese man to cannibalize as revenge for the chief\'s brother being killed by a Portuguese musket ball. Now they have one. However, the Frenchman is allowed free run of the village area, is eventually provided with a \"wife,\" and adopts traditional Tupinambá nudity in place of his Western clothes. A French tradesman comes to the village and tells the Tupinambás that their prisoner is indeed Portuguese -- he then promises the outraged Frenchman that he will tell the Tupinambás the truth if the Frenchman finds a hidden treasure that another European has hidden in the area. He also instructs him to collect wood, and pepper for him on his return. The Frenchman gathers cannon powder from the abandoned Portuguese cannons, and brings it to the Tupinambás, who use it to defeat the rival Tupiniquins in battle. The relationship between the Frenchman and his Tupinambá \"wife\" remains enigmatic. It is unclear for most of the movie if she intends to save him from the group that wants to eat him, or if she has been assigned to win his trust and prevent him from escaping. The Frenchman appears to become in love with her but eventually decides to try to leave. She keeps him from escaping by swamping his canoe and then shooting him in the leg with an arrow. He is then taken to meet his fate of being ritually killed and eaten. In the last seconds of his life, the Frenchman refuses to play along with the ceremonial script that the Tupinambás expect him to follow and instead angrily (and loudly) tells the Tupinambás that his death will not revitalize them (as his death and the subsequent cannibal feast is intended to do) but rather will doom them all to extermination. The movie ends with a postscript that reveals the rival Tupiniquim were later exterminated by their supposed allies, the Portuguese. ## Cast - Arduíno Colassanti - The Frenchman - Ana Maria Magalhães - Seboipepe - Eduardo Imbassahy Filho - Cunhambebe - Manfredo Colassanti - The tradesman - José Kléber - Ipiraguaçu - Gabriel Archanjo - Mbiratata

# Route-16 (video game) is a 1981 maze video game developed and published by Sun Electronics for arcades. The game was released by Tehkan (not yet a video game developer by its release) in Europe and Centuri in North America. It was ported to the Arcadia 2001 console. An enhanced version was released in Japan as *Route-16 Turbo* for the Famicom in 1985. ## Gameplay The player controls a car and must explore a maze divided into sixteen rooms. The player must collect all the money bags while avoiding colliding with opponents\' cars or running out of fuel. Every time the player goes out of a room, a large overworld map is shown, indicating the position of every car and all the money bags. There are also flags that can be driven over to invert the roles, so the player can crash the opposite cars and stop them for a few seconds, while getting bonus points. *Route-16* distinguished itself from other maze games with the addition of an overworld map, showing the locations of the player, cars, and treasures.thumb\|*Route-16 Turbo* box art ## Legacy an improved version of *Route-16* for the Famicom, was published on October 4, 1985, by Sunsoft only in Japan. *Route-16 Turbo* added multiple difficulty levels and improved graphics and music.
