For over 30 years his documentary films have focused on social issues and politics including: Native American histories and struggles (''Ishi, the Last Yahi, California's "Lost" Tribes, Who Owns the Past?,) and agriculture, food and sustainability issues (Ripe for Change). He lives and works in the San Francisco Bay Area.<ref>{{cite web |urlhttp://www.jedriffefilms.com/ |titleHome |websitejedriffefilms.com}}{{Self-published source|dateApril 2024}}</ref>
Biography
Riffe was born in Dallas, Texas, and attended El Centro College in Dallas, where he studied journalism. In 1968, he published The Good Life'' magazine and soon became politically involved in the civil rights and anti-war movements in Texas. He organized demonstrations as part of the national Vietnam Moratorium Committee campaign, and was hired as the Texas organizer for Clergy and Laymen Concerned about Vietnam. His activism inspired his interest in filmmaking.
Riffe's best known film, Ishi, the Last Yahi was released theatrically and aired on the PBS series The American Experience. The film went on to win "Best Documentary" awards at eight film festivals and was nominated for a national Emmy award in 1994.
Riffe served as series and executive producer on California and the American Dream, an independently produced national series that aired on PBS.
Riffe's other credits include interactive producer and video director of the first Africana Interactive Studies Center at Merritt College; interactive producer/writer for four interactive exhibits for the Autry Museum of American History; interactive producer and writer for Public Broadcasting In Public Places. Riffe and his team designed, programmed, built and installed four interactive media kiosks with 160 minutes of content from the California and the American Dream series. Riffe wrote, produced and directed TV of Tomorrow, an interactive prototype demonstrating the possible ways interactive content might appear on television in the future. In 1990, Riffe produced 86 minutes of video for three interactive History Information Stations, at the Oakland Museum of California.
Riffe also consults on film and video distribution.<ref>{{Cite web |lastRiffe |firstJed |date2008-04-11 |titleJed Riffe's Advice for Aspiring Documentarians |urlhttp://www.moviemaker.com/producing/article/jed_riffes_advice_for_aspiring_documentarians_20080404/ |url-statusdead |archive-urlhttps://archive.today/20120906051419/http://www.moviemaker.com/producing/article/jed_riffes_advice_for_aspiring_documentarians_20080404/ |archive-date2012-09-06 |access-date2010-01-21 |websiteMovieMaker Magazine}}{{Self-published source|dateApril 2024}}</ref>Filmography

Career
SM U-118 was commissioned on 8 May 1918, following her construction at the AG Vulcan Stettin shipyard in Hamburg. She was commanded by Herbert Stohwasser and joined the I Flotilla operating in the eastern Atlantic. After four months without sinking any ships, on 16 September 1918, the U-118 scored her first hit. Some {{convert|175|mi}} north-west of Cape Villano, the U-118 torpedoed and sank the British steamer Wellington. The following month, on 2 October 1918, she sank her second and last ship, the British tanker Arca at about {{convert|40|mi}} north-west of Tory Island.<ref nameU118/> The ending of hostilities on 11 November 1918 led to the subsequent surrender of the Imperial German Navy. U-118 was surrendered to the Allies at Harwich on 23 February 1919.<ref name"wreck">{{cite web|urlhttp://www.wrecksite.eu/wreck.aspx?138132|titleU-118|access-date24 January 2010}}</ref>Beaching at HastingsU-118'' was to be transferred to France, but while in tow from Harwich to Brest, in company with {{SMS|UB-121|suby}}, in the early hours of 15 April 1919, she broke tow in a storm, and ran aground on the beach at Hastings in Sussex at approximately 00:45, directly in front of the Queens Hotel.
Initially, there were attempts to displace the stricken vessel. Three tractors tried to refloat the submarine, and a French destroyer attempted to break the boat apart using her guns.<ref name="wreck" /> All were unsuccessful, and the closeness of the submarine to the public beach and the Queens Hotel prevented the use of explosives.
The stranded submarine became a popular tourist attraction, and thousands visited Hastings that Easter to see her. She was under the authority of the local coast guard station, and the Admiralty allowed the town clerk of Hastings to charge a small fee for visitors to climb on the deck. This went on for two weeks, during which the town gained almost £300 (UK£ {{formatnum:{{Inflation|UK|300|1918|r-2}}}} in {{CURRENTYEAR}}) to help fund a welcome for the town's soldiers returning from the war.<ref name"wreck" />
Two members of the coast guard, chief boatman William Heard and chief officer W. Moore, showed important visitors around the interior of the submarine. The visits were curtailed in late April, when both coast guard men became severely ill. Rotting food on board was thought to be the cause, but the men's condition persisted and got worse. Moore died in December 1919, followed by Heard in February 1920. An inquest decided that a noxious gas, possibly chlorine released from the submarine's damaged batteries, had caused abscesses on the men's lungs and brain.<ref name="wreck" />
Although visits inside the submarine had stopped, tourists still came to be photographed alongside or on the U-boat's deck.<ref>{{cite web|urlhttp://www.battleships-cruisers.co.uk/u-boats.htm|titleU-boats|access-date24 January 2010}}</ref> The wreck was sold by the British Admiralty to James Dredging Co. on 21 May 1919 for £2,200 (£ {{formatnum:{{Inflation|UK|2200|1919|r-3}}}} in {{CURRENTYEAR}}) and broken up on the beach until 1921.<ref>{{cite book |last1Dodson |first1Aidan |last2Cant |first2Serena |titleSpoils of War: the fate of enemy fleets after the two World Wars |date2020 |publisherSeaforth |locationBarnsley |isbn978-1-5267-4198-1 |pages22, 24, 96–98,125}}</ref> The deck gun was left behind, but was removed in 1921.

"'''You're Still New to Me'''" is a song written by Paul Davis and Paul Overstreet, and recorded by American country music artist Marie Osmond as a duet with Davis. It was released in July 1986 as the first single from Osmond's album I Only Wanted You. The song was the only collaboration as a duo for Osmond and Davis (though Davis had written Osmond's other number-one duet, "Meet Me in Montana," for her and Dan Seals) and went to number one on the country chart. The single was number one for one week and spent a total of thirteen weeks on the country chart.<ref>{{cite book |titleThe Billboard Book Of Top 40 Country Hits: 1944-2006, Second edition|lastWhitburn |firstJoel |authorlinkJoel Whitburn |year2004 |publisherRecord Research |page100}}</ref> When performed live since Davis's death, Jay Osmond, Marie's brother, usually serves as her duet partner.Charts{|class"wikitable sortable"

Container deposit legislation in the United States
|
{{Short description|Overview of the container deposit legislation in United States of America}}
There are ten states in the United States of America with container deposit legislation, popularly called "bottle bills" after the Oregon Bottle Bill, the first such legislation that was passed.<ref>[http://wwwb.container-recycling.org/assets/pdfs/reports/2008-BMDA-conclusions.pdf Wasting and Recycling Trends: Conclusions from CRI's 2008 Beverage Market Data Analysis, Page 4]</ref>
Container deposit legislation (CDL) requires a refundable deposit on certain types of recyclable beverage containers in order to ensure an increased recycling rate. Studies show that the recycling rate for beverage containers is vastly increased with a bottle bill. The United States' overall beverage container recycling rate is approximately 33%, while states with container deposit laws have a 70% average rate of beverage container recycling. Michigan's recycling rate of 97% from 1990 to 2008 was the highest in the nation, as is its $0.10 deposit.<ref name="Gitlitz">Gitlitz, Jenny & Franklin, Pat (2006). "The 10 Cent Incentive to Recycle". Container Recycling Institute.</ref> Numerous instances of criminal offenses motivated by the cash refund value of empty containers have been reported.
Proponents of container deposit legislation have pointed to the small financial responsibilities of the states. Financing these programs are the responsibility of the beverage industry and consumers.<ref name = Gitlitz/> Producers are responsible for disposing of returned products, while consumers are responsible for collecting their refunds.
In Connecticut, Maine, Michigan, and Massachusetts the courts have ruled that unclaimed deposits are deemed abandoned by the public and are therefore property of the state. In California and Hawaii uncollected deposits are used to cover the administrative costs of the deposit program.<ref name"Gitlitz" /><ref>[http://www.ct.gov/dep/cwp/view.asp?a2714&q324834&depNav_GID1645 State of Connecticut, Department of Environmental Protection Bottle Bill FAQ]</ref> In Iowa and Oregon the beverage distribution industry keeps the unredeemed deposits.<ref>{{Cite web |urlhttps://www.desmoinesregister.com/story/opinion/columnists/iowa-view/2019/04/17/consumer-convenience-essential-saving-iowas-bottle-bill-container-deposits-recycling-litter/3500638002/ |titleConsumer convenience is essential to saving Iowa's bottle bill |websiteDes Moines Register |languageen |access-date2020-04-01}}</ref><ref name":0">{{Cite web |urlhttps://www.wweek.com/news/state/2017/02/01/corporate-lobbyists-turned-oregons-iconic-bottle-bill-into-a-sweet-payday-for-their-clients/ |titleCorporate Lobbyists Turned Oregon's Iconic Bottle Bill into a Sweet Payday for Their Clients |lastJaquiss |firstNigel |websiteWillamette Week |dateFebruary 2017 |languageen-US|access-date2020-04-01}}</ref> Iowa and Oregon's systems are similar and it was found to be highly profitable for beverage distributors in Iowa.<ref name":0" /> Between March 11, 2020, and June 2020, most states with container deposit legislation, except for California and Hawaii, temporarily suspended the bottle bill requirements as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.<ref>{{Cite web|urlhttps://www.wastedive.com/news/coronavirus-state-bottle-bill-enforcement-recycling/574593/|titleAt least 8 states suspend bottle bill requirements during coronavirus pandemic|websiteWaste Dive|languageen-US|access-date2020-04-01}}</ref>

This has led to bottle redemption evolving into a lifeline for low-income people and the homeless. Debate arose as to whether canners, people who collect and redeem bottles and cans for a living, should be considered a legitimate part of society and the economy, or whether they are contributing to open-air drug markets in places such as Oregon, where the original bottle bill was passed. This has led to calls to replace the cash rewards with food assistance or store credit instead in order to acknowledge the bills' actual use as a social service program, and prevent the money from being spent on illicit goods.<ref>{{Cite web |lastDiCarlo |firstGemma |date2021-04-01 |titleHow Oregon’s Bottle Bill does — or doesn’t — play into the state’s drug crisis |urlhttps://www.opb.org/article/2024/04/01/bottle-bill-oregon-fentanyl/ |access-date2024-10-24 |websiteOregon Public Broadcasting |languageen}}</ref> Burden on consumers While noted as drastically increasing recycling rates, controversy arose in jurisdictions such as New York as to whether the bottle deposit fees place an undue burden on consumers.

Criminal offenses related to container deposits
Numerous instances of criminal offenses have occurred motivated by the cash refund value of empty containers, such as theft of cases of water from a retail store, burglary into a concession stand, welfare fraud, and theft of bagged empties from a private residence. In Salem, Oregon, the Douglas McKay High School athletic concession stand was burgled, where approximately ten 24 pack cases of beverages were emptied inside the building and empty containers stolen. The vice president of the club suggested the thieves committed the crime of returning empties for cash at the BottleDrop redemption facility nearby.<ref>{{Cite web |lastBarreda |firstVirginia|titleSalem's McKay High School concession stand burglarized, $1,200 in losses |urlhttps://www.statesmanjournal.com/story/news/2018/10/15/mckay-high-school-concession-stand-robbed/1642070002/ |access-date2020-08-02 |websiteStatesman Journal |languageen-US}}</ref> A Medford, Oregon woman was charged with theft of $40 worth of bottled water from Albertsons.

The siege of Silistria, or siege of Silistra, took place during the Crimean War, from 11 May to 23 June 1854, when Russian forces besieged the Ottoman fortress of Silistria (present-day Bulgaria). Sustained Ottoman resistance had allowed French and British troops to build up a significant army in nearby Varna. Under additional pressure from Austria, the Russian command, which was about to launch a final assault on the fortress town, was ordered to lift the siege and retreat from the area, thus ending the Danubian phase of the Crimean War.{{sfn|Ágoston and Masters|2010|p162}}BackgroundOn 20 March 1854, following the winter lull in campaigning, a Russian army consisting of two army corps crossed the Danube advancing into Ottoman territory. In the east, an army numbering 50,000 under General Alexander von Lüders crossed the border from Bessarabia into Dobruja to occupy designated strong points. The Russians advanced quickly and at the beginning of April reached the lines of the Trajan's Wall, 30 miles east of Silistria. Meanwhile, the central force under Prince Mikhail Gorchakov crossed the river and advanced to lay siege to Silistria on 14 April. Silistria was heavily fortified and defended by an Ottoman garrison between 12,000{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p183}} and 18,000{{sfn | Reid | 2000 | p256}} men under the command of Ferik Musa Hulusi Pasha known as Musa Pasha, and assisted by foreign advisors.{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p183}} An Ottoman force under Omar Pasha numbering 40 to 45,000 was based to the south of Silistria in Şumnu.{{efn|Omar Pasha was a former Serbian Orthodox Austrian soldier known as Mihajlo Latas{{sfn | Cuvalo | 2010 | p138}}}}{{sfn|Ágoston and Masters|2010|p161}}
Action
Silistria had ancient Roman foundations, it was built up by Turkey as a major fortress and trading centre, fortified with an inner Citadel it had an outer ring of ten forts.{{sfn|Ponting|2011|p64}} The Ottoman army at Silistria was composed mostly of Albanians and Egyptians{{sfn|Ágoston and Masters|2010|p161}} under the command of Musa Pasha. About six British Officers were helping the Ottomans, most notably Robert Cannon (Behram Pasha). Captain James Butler and Lieutenant Charles Nasmyth,{{efn|Nasmyth was also news correspondent for the London Times, Nasmyth's letters in the Times, from April to June 1854, described the siege in details until his wounding and death.{{sfn | Reid | 2000 | p256}}}} were some of the foreign officers directing Ottoman troops against the Russians. Nasmyth arrived in Silistria on 28 March 1854, before it was besieged by the Russians. Nasmyth and Butler of the Ceylon Rifles, offered their services to the garrison, both men had served with the East India Company Army.{{sfn | Reid | 2000 | p254}}
On 5 April the vanguard of the Russian force under General Karl Andreyevich Schilder and his assistant military engineer Lieutenant-Colonel Eduard Totleben arrived at the fortress and commenced the siege by building entrenchments. Schilder had taken Silistria in 1829 by mining operations, this time Totleben was in charge of fortifications and sapper work.{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p183}} However, they were unable to completely surround the town, and the Ottoman forces were able to keep the garrison supplied. On 22 April Field Marshal Prince Ivan Paskevich, the commander of all Russian forces took personal control of the Danube campaign and arrived from Warsaw to Bucharest to take charge of the siege.{{sfn|Ponting|2011|p62}}
On 28 May, after a sally from the Turkish Garrison, the heavily fortified fort of Arab Tabia, a key outwork, was assaulted and briefly captured, but the attackers were left without support and were ordered to withdraw, losing 700 men in total,{{sfn | Russell | 1865 | p17}} including General Dmitriy Selvan, who was mortally wounded in the assault.{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p185}} Official Ottoman proclamations announced that their losses were 189 men.{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p185}} Musa Pasha, the garrison commander, died on 2 June killed by shrapnel while performing prayers, he was replaced by British officers Butler and Nasmyth.{{sfn | Jaques | Showalter | 2007 | p945}} Paskevich in his reports to Nikolai stated that the Ottomans were defending the city with good strategic knowledge because of the assistance of foreign officers.{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p=186}}
On 10 June Field Marshal Paskevich claimed to have been hit when an Ottoman shell exploded nearby.{{sfn|Ponting|2011|p64}} Although he was not wounded, the seventy-two-year old Field Marshal retired and returned to Warsaw while his place was taken by General Gorchakov.{{sfn|Winfried Baumgart|2020|p110}} On 13 June Schilder was also wounded and died shortly after, a week later, on 20 June, Arab-Tabia was finally captured.{{sfn|Ponting|2011|p64}} On 21 June the Russians prepared to storm the main fortress, the attack was scheduled for 4&nbsp;am.{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p186}}{{sfn|Winfried Baumgart|2020|p=110}}
{{Quote|textThe siege of Silistria must be raised if the fortress is not yet taken at the receipt of this letter.|authorNicholas I of Russia to Field Marshal Paskevich, 13 June 1854|source{{sfn|Winfried Baumgart|2020|p110}}}}
At 2&nbsp;am on 21 June, just two hours before the assault was due to take place and in the midst of troop movements, Gorchakov received orders from Paskevitch to raise the siege and return to his positions north of the Danube. The concentration of allied troops in the vicinity of Varna, 50,000 French and 20,000 British, as well as Austria's new treaty with Turkey, signed on 14 June, made Nicholas I order a strategic withdrawal.{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p186}} The order was obeyed immediately on 24 June the Russian army crossed the Danube destroying the bridge behind them, the Ottoman army did not follow. The Russian's casualties were 2,500 dead and 1783 wounded during the siege.{{sfn|Ponting|2011|p65}}
Aftermath
Most scholars agree that the Russian offensive was not stopped by Ottoman resistance but by diplomatic pressure and the threat of military action by Austria.{{sfn|Hötte|2017|p7}}{{sfn|Winfried Baumgart|2020|p110}}{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p186}} The Austrians had been concentrating troops (said to number 280,000{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p184}}) along the borders of Wallachia and Moldavia and had warned Russia not to cross the Danube,{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p184}} then on 30 June 1854, 12,000 French troops commanded by Vice-Admiral Bruat arrived at Varna where 30,000 British troops had already arrived on 27 June,{{sfn|The Edinburgh Medical and Surgical Journal|1858|p241}} that recent buildup added pressure on Russian command to abandon the siege and retreat back into Russia across the Prut.{{sfn|Ágoston and Masters|2010|p162}} In order to save face the Russians called their retreat a "strategic withdrawal".{{sfn|Candan Badem|2010|p186}}
Following the retreat Nicholas I acceded to the Austrian-Ottoman occupation of the Danubian principalities thus signaling the end of the Danubian phase of the war.{{sfn |Ágoston and Masters | 2010 | p162}} The Turks under Omar Pasha then crossed the Danube into Wallachia and went on the offensive engaging the Russians in the city of Giurgevo in early July 1854.{{sfn | Small | 2018 | p63}}

The submarine was powered by two {{convert|2400|PS|kW shp}} engines for use while surfaced, and two {{convert|1235|PS|kW shp}} engines for use while submerged. She had two shafts and two {{convert|1.61|m|ft|abbron}} propellers. She was capable of operating at depths of up to {{convert|75|m}}.{{sfn|Gröner|1991|p15}}
The submarine had a maximum surface speed of {{convert|14.7|kn}} and a maximum submerged speed of {{convert|7.2|kn}}.{{sfn|Gröner|1991|p15}} When submerged, she could operate for {{convert|35|nmi}} at {{convert|4.5|kn}}; when surfaced, she could travel {{convert|11470|nmi}} at {{convert|8|kn}}.

Germany
{{expand section|dateDecember 2020}} Post-war U-125 was surrendered to Japan on 26 November 1918 and was renamed O-1 in 1920 or 1921. She was dismantled at the Yokosuka Naval Arsenal between January and March 1921. Between March 1924 and January 1925, she was used as a floating jetty at the Kure KSubmarine School. In 1925, she was rebuilt at Yokosuka as testbed for submarine salvage operations carried out by the submarine tender {{ship|Japanese battleship|Asahi||2}}. On 19 August 1931, the formerO-1 was recommissioned as Auxiliary Vessel No. 2900'' and used as such until 1935.{{citation needed|dateDecember 2020}}

The Honduras – United Kingdom Maritime Delimitation Treaty is a 2001 treaty between Honduras and the United Kingdom which delimits the maritime boundary between Honduras and the British territory of the Cayman Islands.<ref>Charney, Jonathan I. et al. (2005). International Maritime Boundaries, pp.&nbsp;3564–3574.</ref>
The treaty was signed in Tegucigalpa on 4 December 2001. The text of the treaty establishes a boundary that runs for 220 nautical miles and separates the Cayman Islands from the Honduran Swan Islands and Cayo Gorda. From its northernmost point the boundary proceeds southeast until it turns due east when it is almost halfway between the 18th and 17th parallel north. Each of the two portions of the boundary consists of a single straight-line maritime segments. The entire boundary is defined by three individual coordinate points. The far western point of the border is a tripoint with Haiti. The most western part of the boundary forms an agreed tripoint with Cuba, while the easternmost part forms a not-yet-confirmed tripoint with Jamaica.
The treaty came into force on 1 March 2002 after it had been ratified by both states. The full name of the treaty is Treaty between the Government of the Republic of Honduras and the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland concerning the delimitation of the maritime areas between the Cayman Islands and the Republic of Honduras. It is the first ever treaty that delimits the boundaries of the Cayman Islands. Negotiations between the United Kingdom and Jamaica and Cuba to further delimit the Cayman Islands boundaries have progressed slowly.

Erkki Nordberg
|
M.A. Erkki Juhani Nordberg (17 August 1946, Helsinki – 28 March 2012, Helsinki) was a Finnish colonel who served as the Chief of the Educational Department of the Main Headquarters of the Finnish Defense Forces.
Before that, Nordberg served in the Finnish Defense Forces as the commander of the Brigade of Karelia from 1999 to 2002.
In his educational work, Nordberg focused foremost on the history of the Finnish wars during World War II and he has researched extensively the war plans of the Soviet Union, related to World War II. He authored and co-authored several books and he wrote numerous columns for various newspapers – nearly all on military-and war-related issues.
In additions to his publishing and educational work, the general public got to know Nordberg as a regular war correspondent on the Finnish television and radio channels, e.g. during the Persian Gulf War and the Yugoslav Wars.
In his book, Arvio ja ennuste Venäjän sotilaspolitiikasta Suomen suunnalla of 2003 ("The Analysis and Prognosis of the Russian Military Politics on the Finnish Front"), Colonel Nordberg explains in detail why and how the Soviet Union planned and intended to invade Finland, following the Winter War (1939–1940).

A civil engineer by profession, he was head of the SS Central Building Administration at Lublin reservation in occupied Poland. Thomalla was in charge of construction for the Operation Reinhard death camps Bełżec, Sobibor and Treblinka during the Holocaust in Poland.
Operation Reinhardt
{{Main|Operation Reinhard}}
Born in Annahof in the former Upper Silesia region of the German Empire (now, the village of Sowin, Opole Voivodeship, Poland). Thomalla became a member of the Nazi Party in 1932: (no. 1,238,872) and SS (no. 41,206).<ref name=":0" />
The first death camp to be constructed under Thomalla's supervision was Bełżec. Construction started on 1 November 1941 and was completed in March 1942. He then proceeded to design and supervise the construction of Sobibor in March 1942. Workers employed for building the camp were local people from neighboring villages and towns.<ref nameKlee>Klee, Ernst, Dressen, Willi, Riess, Volker The Good Old Days: The Holocaust as Seen by Its Perpetrators and Bystanders, p. 231. {{ISBN|1-56852-133-2}}.</ref> These workers consisted of about eighty Jews from ghettos within the vicinity of the camp. A squad of ten watchmen trained at Trawniki concentration camp guarded these workers. Upon completion of the camp, these Jews were shot.<ref nameArad/> When Thomalla completed his building assignment in Sobibor he was replaced there as commandant by Franz Stangl in April 1942. He then proceeded to Treblinka which copied the design of Sobibor, with some improvements.<ref name":0">{{Cite web|titleThe Treblinka Perpetrators|urlhttp://www.deathcamps.org/treblinka/perpetrators.html|access-date2021-07-31|website=www.deathcamps.org}}</ref>
SS commander Erwin Lambert who had previously been assigned to the Action T4 euthanasia program and had constructed the new gas chambers in Treblinka, testified about Thomalla:
{{quote|I and Hengs{{snd}}euthanasia man{{snd}}went to Treblinka by car. SS-Hauptsturmführer Richard Thomalla was the camp commander. The Treblinka camp was still in the process of construction. Thomalla was in Treblinka for about four to eight weeks. I was attached to a building team there. Thomalla was there for a limited time only and conducted the construction work of the extermination camp. During that time no extermination actions were carried out. Then Dr. Eberl arrived as camp commander. Under his direction the extermination Aktionen of the Jews began. — Erwin Lambert <ref nameArad>Yitzhak Arad (1987).

The 2002 Nebelhorn Trophy took place between September 4 and 7, 2002 at the Bundesleistungszentrum Oberstdorf. It is an international senior-level figure skating competition organized by the Deutsche Eislauf-Union and held annually in Oberstdorf, Germany. The competition is named after the Nebelhorn, a nearby mountain.
Skaters were entered by their respective national federations, rather than receiving individual invitations as in the Grand Prix of Figure Skating, and competed in four disciplines: men's singles, ladies' singles, pair skating, and ice dance. The Fritz-Geiger-Memorial Trophy was presented to the country with the highest placements across all disciplines.

"'''I Won't Take Less Than Your Love'" is a song written by Paul Overstreet and Don Schlitz, and recorded by American country music artist Tanya Tucker with Paul Davis & Overstreet. It was released in October 1987 as the second single from the album Love Me Like You Used To''. The single reached number one for the week of February 27, 1988, and spent fifteen weeks on the country chart.<ref>{{cite book |titleThe Billboard Book Of Top 40 Country Hits: 1944-2006, Second edition|lastWhitburn |firstJoel |author-linkJoel Whitburn |year2004 |publisherRecord Research |page358}}</ref>Content
The song showcases three examples of servitude and gratitude, and the receiver—a man devoted to his wife, a grateful son, and a Christian deeply committed to serving God—seeking a way to repay the giver. Each one responds with the song's title line, the lesson being that love is worth more than all of the riches, comforts and treasures of the world.
The first verse (about the married couple) was sung by Davis, the second verse (about the mother-son relationship) by Tucker, and the final verse (the Christian) by Overstreet.

The Clarence H. Cooke House, later known as the Marks Estate, at 3860 Old Pali Road, Honolulu, Hawai{{okina}}i, was built for Clarence Hyde Cooke, the second son of Charles Montague Cooke and Anna Rice Cooke, heirs of the Castle & Cooke fortune. It was designed by the architect Hardie Phillip, built in 1929–32, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986 as a fine example of the upper-class, Hawaiian-style, great mansion of the late 1920s and early 1930s.<ref name=nris />
Phillip first worked in Honolulu as a member of the firm of Bertram Goodhue and Associates of New York City, who also designed the Honolulu Museum of Art on the site of the former home of Anna Rice Cooke, the C. Brewer Building downtown, and Lihiwai, the residence of Territorial Governor George R. Carter in Nu{{okina}}uanu Valley. For Clarence Cooke, Phillip designed a sprawling 24-room mansion fit for the lavish entertainment it became known for. Features of the evolving Hawaiian Regional style of the era include numerous lanai and open spaces, double-pitched hipped roof ("Dickey" roof), and lushly landscaped grounds. The two-story, whitewashed building is constructed of brick on the ground floor and board and batten on the upper floor. A porte cochere topped by an open lanai leads to a formal entry hall with staircase, which provides access to both floors of two wings running in opposite directions. There are also three guest cottages, a gatehouse, and a four-car garage with servants' quarters above, and a swimming pool with dressing rooms at the rear of the property. The pool area was earlier designed in Neoclassical style by Hart Wood.<ref name=nris />
Cooke left the estate to the Academy of Arts, which sold it in 1946 to Elizabeth Marks, the wealthy daughter of Lincoln L. McCandless.<ref name"WatDat">{{cite web |urlhttp://archives.starbulletin.com/specials/watdat/watdat96.html |titleWat Dat Oldies! 1996: Mysterious estate needs an owner |authorBurl Burlingame |workHonolulu Star-Bulletin |date1 September 1997 |accessdate2010-01-21 }}</ref> Her husband Lester Marks was a land commissioner for the Territory who resigned in 1949 when Governor Ingram M.

By that time, she was a widow, but still wealthy enough to buy a new house at Black Point in Kahala.<ref name="WatDat" />
State government departments then took it over, using it for office space, conferences, and special events. After trying to sell it for years, in 2002 the State finally auctioned off the property, which had been appraised at $4.5 million. The winning bid of $2.5 million came from Unity House Incorporated, a labor union nonprofit organization, which planned to use it for office space and a retiree activity center.<ref name"Unity House" /> In 2006, it was purchased by Douglas Himmelfarb, a Hawaii art and furniture dealer, for $4.41 million.<ref name"pbn">{{cite news |titleHistoric 'Marks Estate' in Honolulu on the market for $5.6M | date22 January 2015 | authorDuane Shimogawa |urlhttp://www.bizjournals.com/pacific/news/2015/01/22/historic-marks-estate-in-honolulu-on-the-market.html | accessdate2015-03-06 | publisher Pacific Business News}}</ref> During that time, much of the house was renovated and in 2010 was put up for sale at $9.9 million, then reduced to $8.5 million without finding a buyer.<ref>{{cite web |urlhttp://www.zillow.com/homedetails/3860-Old-Pali-Rd-Honolulu-HI-96817/62897135_zpid/ |title 3860 Old Pali Rd Honolulu, HI 96817 |workZillow.com |accessdate November 9, 2010 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |titleThe 25 Most Expensive Homes On O‘ahu |date September 2005 |workHonolulu Magazine |author Michael Keany, Ronna Bolante |urlhttp://www.honolulumagazine.com/Honolulu-Magazine/September-2005/The-25-Most-Expensive-Homes-On-Oaahu/ }}</ref> After Himmelfarb experienced financial difficulties, JPMorgan Chase Bank took possession of the property in 2014 for $6.5 million through a foreclosure.<ref namepbn /> The home was eventually sold in late 2016 for $3.9 million.

Feudal maintenance
|
Feudal maintenance under feudal systems of government, was the money payment to soldiers who fought in the interest and at the command of their lord. Such soldiers comprised private armies, each with uniquely identifiable livery. The system of feudal government under which maintenance was paid was most notably present in Europe during the late 15th century.

Western baronets
|
The Western Baronetcy, of Rivenhall in the County of Essex, was a title in the baronetage of the United Kingdom. It was created on 20 August 1864 for the Liberal politician Thomas Western. He had succeeded to the Rivenhall estate in Essex in 1844 on the death of his cousin Charles Western, 1st Baron Western. The second baronet was also a politician and sat as member of parliament for Maldon. The third baronet was a justice of the peace and deputy lieutenant for Essex. The title became extinct on his death in 1917.

William Guthrie Gardiner
|
William Guthrie Gardiner (died 7 November 1935) was a wealthy shipowner who was a generous benefactor to the University of Glasgow, endowing a number of chairs.
Biography
He was born in Stirling in 1848 or 1849 and married Agnes in 1889. He died in Stirling in 1935 having lived much of his life in Govan.
He had two brothers Frederick who became Sir Frederick Crombie Gardiner and James with whom established the company of James Gardiner & Co and made a great success from commercial shipping, owning a number of vessels although the business was not without its risks. The company was sold after the First World War generating a considerable fortune.
University of Glasgow endowments
This wealth was subsequently used to greatly enrich the University of Glasgow. In 1898 they endowed a lectureship in Organic Chemistry in 1898 and later by endowing a number of Professorships which continue to this day.
These include:
Gardiner chairs of Music (1928)
Gardiner Chair of Physiological Chemistry (1919) – renamed Chair of Biochemistry in 1958
Gardiner Chair of Bacteriology (1919) – renamed Chair of Immunology in 1990
Gardiner Chair Organic Chemistry (1919) – now the Gardiner Chair of Chemistry
Gardiner Chair in the Pathology of Diseases of Infancy and Childhood (1928)
In 1938, the Gardiner Institute of Medicine was built the costs being met from their bequests.

CREB in cognition
|
The cellular transcription factor CREB (cAMP response element-binding protein) helps learning and the stabilization and retrieval of fear-based, long-term memories. This is done mainly through its expression in the hippocampus and the amygdala. Studies supporting the role of CREB in cognition include those that knock out the gene, reduce its expression, or overexpress it.
Memory
Research suggests that CREB has a role in the molecular steps that stabilize memory in the brain, including that of emotional memory. CREB modulates neuron excitability, meaning the propensity to generate an action potential upon receiving an input (crucial for long-term potentiation, LTP). Evidence of CREB's role in emotional memory falls into three experimental categories: negative manipulations (where the levels of CREB were lowered), positive manipulations (where the levels of CREB were increased), and non-interventions (where the endogenous levels of CREB were tracked before and after learning).
Knockout
Knockout studies in Aplysia sea slugs indicated that decreasing CREB function blocks long-term changes in synaptic function, but not short-term ones. Changes in synaptic function (i.e., synaptic plasticity) are required for learning and memory As evidence of this, a line of mice with a targeted disruption of the α and δ isoforms of CREB showed intact short-term memory, but disrupted long-term memory in several behavioral tasks, including contextual conditioning and spatial learning in the Morris water maze, two hippocampal-dependent learning tasks. Also, hippocampal electrophysiological studies revealed that the CREB mutation disrupted the stability of synaptic plasticity
Knockdown
There are several methods of knocking down (reducing the expression of) CREB:
Antisense
Antisense oligonucleotides (single strands of DNA or RNA that are complementary to a chosen sequence) against hippocampal CREB mRNA can lower levels of CREB within 6 hours of infusion and impair spatial memory. Tests given immediately after training showed that the antisense oligonucleotides against CREB do not disrupt short-term memory.
Dominant negative
Another strategy for interfering with CREB function is the use of a dominant negative transgenic strategy. In this strategy, a fragment of the CREB gene was expressed from a transgene in mice. The resulting transgenic protein was engineered to interfere with the normal function of CREB by competing with wild type (non-mutated) CREB for binding sites in the DNA; the transgenic protein lacks the domains required for making functional complexes. To regulate when the dominant negative CREB fragment interfered with normal CREB function, the mutant DNA was used to generate a fusion protein that also included a mutated ligand-binding domain (LBD) of the estrogen receptor, binding to tamoxifen rather than to estrogen. When exposed to tamoxifen, the dominant negative fragment changed the conformation of the fusion protein, became active, and could therefore interfere with CREB binding sites. One advantage of this inducible transgenic system is that the altered protein is constitutively present and can therefore be rapidly activated following the administration of tamoxifen.
Use of the LBD system to knock down CREB protein function during training (using both contextual freezing and tone fear paradigms) produced a deficit in long-term, but not short-term, memory. Impairing CREB function did not impair retrieval of the consolidated memory.
RNA interference
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) can induce a selective degradation of the mRNA of the protein of interest. Infusion of siRNA segments against CREB have produced deficits in both contextual conditioning and forward trace conditioning.
Activation
A line of lacZ reporter mice (mice that have E. coli's gene attached to their CREB gene to produce a protein that is easily visualized), when trained with a context protocol, showed higher levels of CREB-mediated transcription in the CA1 and CA3 regions of the hippocampus when compared to untrained mice or mice that did not associated content with shock (in fear conditioning) due to latent inhibition. Likewise, the lacZ mice that were trained with a tone protocol showed higher levels of CREB-dependent gene transcription in the amygdala than either mice with no training or mice in the unpaired group. There was no difference in CREB-dependent gene expression in the hippocampus of animals trained with a tone protocol.
Rescue
When a herpes simplex virus expressing CREB was infused into the amygdala of CREB knockout mice, the expression of CREB in the amygdala rescued the deficit, indicating that amygdal CREB is critical for memory in tone conditioning.
Overexpression
The role of overexpression of CREB has not been examined systematically in fear conditioning, and studies of other conditioning paradigms has produced mixed results. A 2001 study, which used viral transfection to overexpress CREB in the basolateral amygdala of rats, found that overexpression increased the fear-potentiated startle response. This suggests that CREB levels are limiting during the acquisition of fear-potentiated startle and that these levels are related to the strength of this form of memory.
A more recent paper (2009), using a similar viral approach in the hippocampus, found that additional CREB expression could also enhance contextual fear conditioning, a result consistent with a role of the hippocampus in this form of conditioning. While viral CREB reversed the conditioning deficits in CREB knockout animals, additional CREB did not seem to enhance memory of the wild-type controls.
Chronic enhancement of CREB, using genetic manipulations in mice, did not seem to enhance memory in a water maze task. Another 2009 study, which overexpressed CREB using the tetracycline transgenic dox system, found that, while additional CREB did not enhance acquisition, it did interfere with memory retrieval, suggesting that there may be an optimal level of CREB activation for normal memory function. Other papers suggest that CREB helps control intrinsic excitability, providing an additional mechanism by which CREB can contribute to memory acquisition and expression. Enhanced CREB-dependent gene expression increases the excitability of neurons in the basal amygdala and primes the consolidation of contextual and cued fear memory.

Hand injury
|
The hand is a very complex organ with multiple joints, different types of ligament, tendons and nerves. Hand disease injuries are common in society and can result from excessive use, degenerative disorders or trauma.
Trauma to the finger or the hand is quite common in society. In some particular cases, the entire finger may be subject to amputation. The majority of traumatic injuries are work-related. Today, skilled hand surgeons can sometimes reattach the finger or thumb using microsurgery. Sometimes, traumatic injuries may result in loss of skin, and plastic surgeons may place skin and muscle grafts.
Types
thumb|222x222px|3D medical animation still showing Arthritis infected hand.
Arthritis of the hand is common in females. Osteoarthritis of the hand joints is much less common than rheumatoid arthritis. As the arthritis progresses, the finger gets deformed and lose its functions. Moreover, many patients with rheumatoid arthritis have this dysfunction present in both hands and become disabled due to chronic pain. Osteoarthritis is most common at the base of thumb and is usually treated with pain pills, splinting or steroid injections.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common disorder of the hand. This disorder results from compression of the median nerve in the wrist. Disorders like diabetes mellitus, thyroid or rheumatoid arthritis can narrow the tunnel and cause impingement of the nerve. Carpal tunnel syndrome also occurs in people who overuse their hand or perform repetitive actions like using a computer key board, a cashiers machine or a musical instrument. When the nerve is compressed, it can result in disabling symptoms like numbness, tingling, or pain in the middle three fingers. As the condition progresses, it can lead to muscle weakness and inability to hold objects. The pain frequently occurs at night and can even radiate to the shoulder. Even though the diagnosis is straightforward, the treatment is surgical decompression of the median nerve after deroofing of the carpal tunnel.
Dupuytren's contracture is another disorder of the fingers that is due to thickening of the underlying skin tissues of the palm. The disorder results in a deformed finger which appears thin and has small bumps on the surface. Dupuytren's contracture does run in families, but is also associated with diabetes, smoking, seizure recurrence and other vascular disorders. Dupuytren's does not need any treatment as the condition can resolve on its own. However, if finger function is compromised, then surgery may be required.
Ganglion cysts are soft globular structures that occur on the back of the hand usually near the junction of the wrist joint. These small swellings are usually painless when small but can affect hand motion when they become large. The cysts contain a jelly like substance and usually do disappear on their own. If the ganglion cyst is not bothersome, it should be left alone. Just removing the fluid from the cyst is not curative because fluid will come back in less than a week. Surgery is often done for large cysts but the results are poor. Recurrences are common, and there is always the possibility of nerve or joint damage.
thumb|228x228px|Inflamed tendons of the hand.
Tendinitis is disorder when tendons of the hands become inflamed. Tendons are thick fibrous cords that attach small muscles of the hand to bones. A Tendon is useful for generation of power to bend or extend the finger. When repetitive action is performed, tendons often get inflamed and present with pain and difficulty for moving the finger. In most cases, tendinitis can be treated with rest, ice and wearing splints. In some cases, an injection of corticosteroid may help. Tendinitis is primarily a disorder from overuse but if not treated properly, can become chronic. Severe cases need surgical decompression.
Trigger finger is a common disorder which occurs when the sheath through which tendons pass, become swollen or irritated. Initially, the finger may catch during movement but symptoms like pain, swelling and a snap may occur with time. The finger often gets locked in one position and it may be difficult to straighten or bend the finger. Trigger finger has been found to be associated with diabetes, gout and rheumatoid arthritis.
Causes
Fractures of the fingers occur when the finger or hands hit a solid object. Fractures are most common at the base of the little finger (boxer's fracture).
Nerve injuries occur as a result of trauma, compression or over-stretching. Nerves send impulses to the brain about sensation and also play an important role in finger movement. When nerves are injured, one can lose ability to move fingers, lose sensation and develop a contracture. Any nerve injury of the hand can be disabling and results in loss of hand function. Thus it is vital to seek medical help as soon as possible after any hand injury.
Sprains result from forcing a joint to perform against its normal range of motion. Finger sprains occur when the ligaments which are attached to the bone are overstretched and this results in pain, swelling, and difficulty for moving the finger. Common examples of a sprain are jammed or twisted fingers. These injuries are common among ball players but can also occur in laborers and handy men. When finger sprains are not treated on time, prolonged disability can result.
Diagnosis
thumb|Fracture of the tuft of the finger
Finger injuries are usually diagnosed with x-ray and can get to be considerably painful. The majority of finger injuries can be dealt with conservative care and splints. However, if the bone presents an abnormal angularity or if it is displaced, one may need surgery and pins to hold the bones in place.
Treatment
Most hand injuries are minor and can heal without difficulty. However, any time the hand or finger is cut, crushed or the pain is ongoing, it is best to see a physician. Hand injuries when not treated on time can result in long term morbidity.
Simple hand injuries do not typically require antibiotics as they do not change the chance of infection.
Many hand injuries need surgery, but the time from injury to surgery (delays of up to 4 days) doesn't increase the chance of infection
Epidemiology
About 1.8 million people go to the emergency department each year due to hand injuries.

Mill Street is a street in Oxford, England.<ref>{{cite web| urlhttps://www.streetcheck.co.uk/postcode/ox20aj| titleArea Information for Mill Street, Oxford, OX2 0AJ | websitewww.streetcheck.co.uk | publisherStreetCheck | locationUK | accessdate15 February 2017 }}</ref> It is a cul-de-sac that runs south from the Botley Road close to Oxford railway station. It includes residential houses, mainly terraced, and some office space.<ref>{{cite news| urlhttp://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/li/sold_house_prices_street_list.detail.MILL%20STREET,OXFORD/ | titleSold house prices in Mill Street | newspaperOxford Mail | accessdate15 February 2017 }}</ref>
Mill Street was built in the 1860s as part of the development of New Osney on what was then known as Osney Island.
Overview
At its southern end was Osney Mill (a disused flour mill on the River Thames), after which the street is named. The mill stood on the site of the now-destroyed Osney Abbey. Little is left of the abbey today, but there is still a rubble and timber-framed structure at the mill site, which may date from the 15th century, on private land but visible from the street. The remnants were Grade II listed in 1954.<ref>{{NHLE |num1369400 |descOsney Abbey |gradeII |fewer-links |access-date5 August 2024}}</ref> In 2004, plans for a new development of homes on the mill site were given planning approval by Oxford City Council.<ref>{{cite news | urlhttp://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/archive/2004/12/30/6560149.New_life_at_last_for_mill/?refarc | titleNew life at last for the mill | newspaperOxford Mail | date30 December 2004 | url-statusdead | archiveurlhttps://web.archive.org/web/20141027034245/http://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/archive/2004/12/30/6560149.New_life_at_last_for_mill/?refarc | archivedate27 October 2014 | df=dmy-all }}</ref> Between 2012 and 2014 the area around the mill was finally redeveloped.
Close to the site of the former mill is Osney Lock, and to the south is Osney Mill Marina. To the east is Osney Cemetery, established in 1848 but now disused, between Mill Street and the railway tracks. Osney Lane leads from Mill Street over a footbridge across the railway tracks towards Oxpens Road and central Oxford to the north of the cemetery.<ref>{{cite web| urlhttps://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/486285 | titleSP5006: Osney Footbridge, Oxford | firstStephen | lastMcKay | publisherGeograph | locationUK | date2007 }}</ref>ExplosionOn 14 February 2017, a large explosion heard across much of Oxford occurred at the southern end of Mill Street, in a three-storey block of flats at the junction with Gibbs Crescent, completely destroying the building.<ref>{{cite news| urlhttp://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/15091709.Huge_explosion_and_fire_in_Oxford/ | titleOne person confirmed missing after blast rips through building in Gibbs Crescent, West Oxford | newspaperOxford Mail | locationUK | date15 February 2017 }}</ref> The end of Mill Street was cordoned off by police and local residents were evacuated from their homes.<ref>{{cite news| urlhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-oxfordshire-38978667 | titleOxford explosion: Person still missing after flats fire | workBBC News | publisherBBC | locationUK | date15 February 2017 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news| urlhttp://www.itv.com/news/meridian/story/2017-02-15/investigation-continues-after-oxford-fire-and-explosion/ | titleInvestigation continues after Oxford fire and explosion | workITV News |publisherITV | locationUK | date15 February 2017 }}</ref> Local residents were left in a state of limbo after the explosion, being unable to return to their homes.<ref>{{cite news| titleResidents 'in limbo' following explosion | firstLuke | lastSproule | page7 | newspaperOxford Times | locationUK | date23 February 2017 }}</ref>Gallery

The Cuba–Jamaica Maritime Boundary Agreement is a 1994 treaty that delimits the maritime boundary between the island countries of Cuba and Jamaica. The treaty was signed in Kingston, Jamaica on 18 February 1994 and establishes a 175 nautical mile-long, complex border in the waters above the Cayman Trough.
The boundary consists of 105 straight-line maritime segments defined by 106 individual coordinate points. The complexity of the border is a result of adherence to the principle of forming a border at the precise, equidistant line between the two states. The far western border forms an unconfirmed tripoint with the Cayman Islands.
The treaty went into effect on 18 July 1995. Its official name is the Agreement between the Government of the Jamaica and the Government of the Republic of Cuba on the delimitation of the maritime boundary between the two States.

"The road to hell is paved with good intentions" is a proverb or aphorism.
Meaning
A common meaning of the phrase is that wrongdoings or evil actions are often undertaken with good intentions; or that good intentions, when acted upon, may have bad consequences.<ref>{{Cite web |lastCallaway |firstRhonda L. |dateAugust 2001 |titleIs the Road to Hell Paved with Good Intentions?

A different interpretation of the saying is that individuals may have the intention to undertake good actions but nevertheless fail to take them.<ref>{{cite book |urlhttp://dictionary.reference.com/browse/the+road+to+hell+is+paved+with+good+intentions |titleThe American Heritage New Dictionary of Cultural Literacy: The road to hell is paved with good intentions |publisherDictionary.com/Houghton Mifflin Company |year2005 |editionThird |access-dateMarch 28, 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |urlhttp://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/british/the-road-to-hell-is-paved-with-good-intentions |titleCambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary & Thesaurus: The road to hell is paved with good intentions |publisherDictionary.cambridge.org/Cambridge University Press |year2008 |editionThird |access-dateMarch 28, 2013}}</ref> This inaction may be due to procrastination, laziness, or another subversive vice.<ref>{{citation |last1Collis |first1Harry |title101 American English proverbs: understanding language and culture through commonly used sayings |urlhttps://archive.org/details/101americanengli00harr_0 |year1992 |chapterThe Road to Hell is Paved with Good Intentions |chapter-urlhttps://books.google.com/books?idPGiREb_p238C&pgPA33 |locationLincolnwood, Ill |publisherPassport Books |isbn9780844254128 |last2Risso |first2Mario}}</ref> As such, the saying is an admonishment that a good intention is meaningless unless followed through.<ref>{{cite book |titlePsychosocial Basis of Health Care |publisherWilliams & Wilkins |year1983 |isbn0-683-00993-1 |editor1-lastBowden |editor1-firstCharles L. |page98 |editor2-lastBurstein |editor2-firstAlvin George}}</ref> This is consistent with another saying, often attributed to Edmund Burke: "the only thing necessary for evil to win is for good men to do nothing."

Attempts to improve the ethical behaviour of groups are often counterproductive. If legislation is used for such an attempt, people observe the letter of the law rather than improve the desired behaviour. The threat of punishment may make behavior less rather than more ethical.<ref>{{citation |last1Messick |first1David |titleEthics in groups |date2006-07-11 |volume8 |pages273–274 |chapterThe Road to Hell |chapter-urlhttps://books.google.com/books?idcEu7eyQEZPcC&pgPA273 |publisherEmerald Group Publishing Limited |isbn9780762313006}}</ref> Studies of business ethics indicate that most wrongdoing is not due directly to wickedness but is performed by people who did not plan to err.<ref>{{citation |last1Nash |first1Laura L. |titleGood intentions aside: a manager's guide to resolving ethical problems |year1993 |urlhttps://books.google.com/books?idoV9wdAJWyG4C&pgPA11 |publisherHarvard Business School Press |isbn=9780875844299}}</ref>
Stephen Garrard Post, writing about altruism, suggests that good intentions are often not what they seem and that mankind normally acts from less worthy, selfish motives&mdash;"If the road to hell is paved with good intentions, it is partly because that is the road they generally start out on."<ref>{{citation |last1Post |first1Stephen Garrard |titleAltruism & altruistic love |page203 |year2002 |publisherOxford University Press |isbn9780195143584}}</ref>OriginsThe exact origin of this proverb is unknown and several variations exist. The first full version of the phrase appeared in an 1811 English version of one of Johann Jacob Rambach's books, "The road to hell is paved with good resolutions", a translation of his 1730 German text {{Lang|de|Der Weg zur Höllen sey mit lauter gutem Vorsatz gepflastert}}.<ref>{{Google books|iddG5AAAAAIAAJ|titleMeditations and Contemplations on the Sufferings of Our Lord and ... |page61 |text"road to hell is paved"}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |urlhttps://digitale.bibliothek.uni-halle.de/vd18/content/titleinfo/1655568 |titleJohann Jacob Rambachs, Der Heil.

Arrigo Benedetti (June 1, 1910 – October 26, 1976) was an Italian journalist and writer. He was also the editor of important news magazines: {{Lang|it|Oggi}} (1939–1941), ''L'Europeo'' (1945–54), {{Lang|it|L'Espresso}} (1955–63), and Il Mondo (1969–72). Born as Giulio, he changed his name to Arrigo in 1933.<ref nametreccani>[http://www.treccani.it/enciclopedia/giulio-benedetti_%28Dizionario-Biografico%29/_%28Dizionario_Biografico%29/ Benedetti, Giulio], Dizionario Biografico degli Italiani - Volume 34 (1988)</ref>Early lifeArrigo Benedetti was born in Lucca, in Tuscany (Italy). In 1937 he moved to Rome where he joined his study friend Mario Pannunzio. Both started to work the weekly Omnibus edited by Leo Longanesi. Omnibus was suppressed by Mussolini’s Fascist regime two years later. Benedetti and Pannunzio founded Oggi in 1939 until its suppression in 1941.<ref namesimonelli/><ref name=crc980/>
In December 1943 he was arrested, but managed to escape when the prison was hit by an Allied bombardment. He moved to Milan and joined the resistance against the German occupying forces and the Mussolini-led Italian Social Republic (Repubblica Sociale Italiana).<ref namesimonelli>Luciano Simonelli, [https://books.google.com/books?id_vHLue3zgGcC Dieci giornalisti e un editore], Milan: Simonelli Editore, 1997, {{ISBN|88-86792-09-3}}</ref>
Editor
In November 1945, he launched the news magazine ''L'Europeo with Gianni Mazzocchi.<ref namethesis>{{in lang|it}} [http://www.francoabruzzo.it/document.asp?DID90 Tommaso Besozzi e la morte del bandito Giuliano], thesis by Laura Mattioli, Università degli Studi di Milano Bicocca 2003</ref> A journalist of particular importance himself, he created the so-called "Benedetti school of journalism" with journalists such as Tommaso Besozzi, Enzo Biagi, Giorgio Bocca, Oriana Fallaci and Indro Montanelli.<ref namecrc293>[https://books.google.com/books?id6vVS_Y1mcIEC Encyclopedia of contemporary Italian culture], CRC Press, 2000, p. 293</ref> The magazine paid special attention to photographic image and documentary photography. According to Benedetti: "People look at articles, but read the photos" (Gli articoli si guardano, le fotografie si leggono'').<ref name=cds300808>{{in lang|it}} [http://archiviostorico.corriere.it/2008/agosto/30/Europeo_dei_ricordi_storici_co_9_080830011.shtml «L' Europeo» dei ricordi storici], Corriere della Sera, August 30, 2008</ref>
In 1953, the Rizzoli publishing company bought the publication, when during the Korean War the original publisher was not able anymore to cover rising expenses. The price of paper surged from 100 to 280 lire per kilogram. The original editor Benedetti left the magazine and launched a new weekly, {{Lang|it|L'Espresso}}, in October 1955, with Eugenio Scalfari, and backed by the progressive industrialist Adriano Olivetti, manufacturer of Olivetti typewriters.<ref namecrc980>[https://books.google.com/books?id69ey6Z-05fMC Encyclopedia of Italian literary studies], CRC Press, 2007, p. 980</ref>
Benedetti was the editor-in-chief until 1963, when he handed over to Scalfari. {{Lang|it|L'Espresso}} was characterized from the beginning by an aggressive investigative journalism strongly focussed on corruption and clientelism by the Christian Democrat party. In the 1950s it uncovered major scandals in the health and housing industries.<ref namecrc290>[https://books.google.com/books?id6vVS_Y1mcIEC Encyclopedia of contemporary Italian culture], CRC Press, 2000, p. 290</ref> In 1969 Benedetti refounded the weekly newsmagazine Il Mondo, founded by his old friend Mario Pannunzio in 1949, but discontinued in 1966.
Novelist
As a novelist, Benedetti’s narrative style is characterized by a realistic and immediate language often comparerd with Italian neorealist cinema, in particular in his last book of fiction, Rosso al vento (Red in the Wind), describing life in Italy during World War II. His meticulous attention to everyday reality is manifest in all his novels from I misteri della città (The Mysterious of the City) (1941) to Gli occhi (Eyes) (1970).<ref namecrc81>[https://books.google.com/books?id6vVS_Y1mcIEC Encyclopedia of contemporary Italian culture], CRC Press, 2000, p. 81</ref>

Lost Planet: Extreme Condition (2006)
{{Main|Lost Planet: Extreme Condition}}
The first Lost Planet game takes place in the year known in the game as T.C. -80 on the fictional planet of E.D.N. III. After the Earth's conditions become too hostile for humans due to war, global warming and pollution, a fictional interstellar megacorporation named Neo-Venus Construction (NEVEC) plans to colonize E.D.N. III, a new Earth-like planet in the grip of a brutal ice age. NEVEC discovers that E.D.N. III is inhabited by an aggressive and territorial insectoid alien species named the Akrid, which come in all shapes and sizes and generate their own precious thermal energy. 150 years after a great war was fought in which the humans lost to the Akrid, the plot of the game revolves around Wayne Holden, a "snow pirate" who attempts to overthrow the ruthless NEVEC, who still vie for control over E.D.N. III, and help colonization efforts for the remainder of the human race by destroying the Akrid, all the while attempting to survive both betrayals and the extreme conditions of the planet.

But instead of using Lee for character animations, the developers did so manually. As for environments, Capcom used up to 300,000 to 600,000 polygons in the screen at once for a single battle. They then used an XSI program and then manually added in elaborate details. One of the main focuses of Lost Planet was to make a game that could be a commercial success in both North America and Japan.<ref name"Graphics">{{cite web|urlhttp://www.softimage.com/products/xsi/customer_stories/jp_lost_planet/default.aspx|titleLost Planet|publisherAutodesk|pages1|access-date2009-05-09|archive-urlhttps://web.archive.org/web/20090502124742/http://www.softimage.com/products/xsi/customer_stories/jp_lost_planet/default.aspx|archive-date2009-05-02|url-status=dead}}</ref>

Plot
The first Lost Planet begins in the year of the game T.C. -80 where the Earth has become too hostile for human life. A company named NEVEC (Neo-Venus Construction) tries to start colonization on the planet E.D.N. III. Upon arriving on the planet, NEVEC discovers an alien race called Akrid and are forced off the planet, momentarily stopping colonization efforts. Returning to E.D.N. III with an army prepared to fight, they find that the Akrid can only function because their bodies contain reserves of thermal energy (T-ENG), humans must also carry supplies of thermal energy to survive on E.D.N. III. NEVEC builds the first Vital Suit (VS), a mecha powered by T-ENG, to fight the Akrid. Meanwhile, civilian colonists and bands of E.D.N. III military personnel continue to seek out a nomadic existence as "snow pirates", harvesting T-ENG from fallen Akrid.
The story of the sequel takes place back on E.D.N. III, 10 years after the events of the first game. The snow has melted to reveal jungles and more tropical areas that have taken the place of more frozen regions. The game centers on a civil war to gain T-ENG.<ref name"Lost Planet 2 Preview - Page 1">{{cite web|urlhttp://www.eurogamer.net/articles/lost-planet-2-preview?page1|titleLost Planet Preview - Page 1|publisherEurogamer|access-date2009-04-29|date=2009-04-27}}</ref> Player(s) can assume control of several different groups of soldiers, called Snow Pirates, and battle the Akrid. The Akrid have expanded their armies and return much more powerful in Lost Planet 2.
Lost Planet 3 is a prequel to the first two games in the series, following the story of Jim Peyton on E.D.N. III.

Léopold Clément, Hereditary Prince of Lorraine (Léopold Clément Charles; 25 April 1707 – 4 June 1723) was heir apparent to the throne of the sovereign Duchy of Lorraine.
His father was the reigning Duke of Lorraine and his mother a member of the House of Bourbon, then ruling the Kingdom of France. He became the Hereditary Prince at the death of his older brother Louis in 1711, but died of smallpox in 1723 at the age of sixteen, unmarried and without descendants.
Biography
.]]
He was born at the Château de Lunéville to Léopold, Duke of Lorraine and his wife Élisabeth Charlotte d'Orléans.
Léopold was the third son born to his parents. His eldest brother, also Léopold (1699–1700), died aged eight months. Three other older siblings died in an outbreak of smallpox at Lunéville: Élisabeth Charlotte (1700–1711), Marie Gabrièle Charlotte (1702–1711) and Louis (1704–1711). The smallpox epidemic had killed other royalty such as the Grand Dauphin and the Holy Roman Emperor Joseph I at the same time.
In 1722 Léopold also became the heir to the Duchy of Teschen which was given to his father in compensation for his father's maternal grandmother's rights to the Duchy of Montferrat in northern Italy, which Emperor Charles VI had taken and given to his allies, the Dukes of Savoy.<ref>{{Cite journal |lastGriffin |firstStephen |dateDecember 2022 |titleDuke Leopold of Lorraine, Small State Diplomacy, and the Stuart Court in Exile, 1716–1729 |urlhttps://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/historical-journal/article/duke-leopold-of-lorraine-small-state-diplomacy-and-the-stuart-court-in-exile-17161729/702E0AF962B06FD9EF7FAD67D78C8A40 |journalThe Historical Journal |languageen |volume65 |issue5 |pages1244–1261 |doi10.1017/S0018246X2100090X |issn0018-246X|hdl10344/11021 |hdl-accessfree }}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |lastIngrao |firstCharles W. |titleIn quest and crisis: emperor Joseph I and the Habsburg monarchy |date1979 |publisherPurdue Univ.

In 1723 he was sent to Vienna to carry out his education under the supervision of Charles VI, his father's first cousin. Another reason for his journey was to forge a Habsburg-Lorraine alliance through a marriage with the Archduchess Maria Theresa.<ref>{{Cite book |lastBashor |firstWill |titleMarie Antoinette's World: intrigue, infidelity, and adultery in Versailles |date2020 |publisherRowman & Littlefield |isbn978-1-5381-3824-3 |locationLanham (Md.) |pages45}}</ref>
Soon afterward the prince caught smallpox at Lunéville and quickly died at the Château there. He was buried in the Ducal Crypt at the Church of Saint-François-des-Cordeliers, Nancy. His younger brother Francis Stephen became the Hereditary Prince and later married Maria Theresa, Habsburg heiress and future Queen regnant of Hungary and Bohemia.

Patch dynamics (physics)
|
Patch dynamics is a term used in physics to bridge, using algorithms, the models describing macroscale behavior and to predict large-scale patterns in fluid flow. It uses locally averaged properties of short space-time scales to advance and predict long space-time scale dynamics.
In patch dynamics and finite difference approximations, the macroscale variables are defined at the grid points of a mesh chosen to resolve the solution. The standard PDE adaptive grid methods can be used to resolve gradients in the macroscale solution. Both patch dynamics and finite difference methods generate time derivatives at mesh points; these time derivatives then help advance the solution in time.

Majapahit Terracotta

She wears a head band and her hair, piled on the left is also tied bt the scarf. There is a leaf over her right ear. Her ear rings are large and tubular
Majapahit Terracotta is the terracotta art and craft dated from Majapahit era circa 13th to 15th century. Significant terracotta earthenware artifacts from this period were discovered in Trowulan, East Java.
Over the years many terracotta sculptures and artifacts have been discovered as a result of agricultural activities, building roads etc. Some of these finds were brought together in the museum at Trowulan before World War II, but in the subsequent years much of this collection has been lost. Post WW II many of the pieces has been unearthed as the result of digging for gold. After the crops have been harvested the farmers lease their land to diggers who dig pits panning the alluvial soil for gold. The terracottas are an incidental find, often bearing the mark of the digging implement.
Today, Trowulan Museum and National Museum of Indonesia host large collections of Majapahit terracotta art.
Method
thumb|right|300px|High fired figurine with a glaze drip on her breast
The word terracotta derives from the Latin word meaning burnt earth. Nowadays the word refers to all unglazed red earthenware objects. Much of the archeological studies of the area have focused on the reconstructions of the ruins. So far, in East Java no kilns have been found and most of the objects are relatively low fired, suggesting that the craftsmen worked by the earthenware method. They probably worked in a way similar to that being used today in Kasongan, near Yogyakarta and the one in Bali, where the figurines are sun dried. Then rice husks and straw heaped over them and set on fire. To attain a harder object the firing is repeated. So far no kilns that would have allowed higher temperatures to be reached have been discovered. However, there is some evidence that there may have been kilns from one figurine that is of a stone ware and has a glaze drip on the breast.
Artifacts
Containers
Containers in various sizes and shapes have been discovered in Trowulan. The containers probably used for various purposes, from water container to grain container. From large jar to box shaped water container. The typical kendi, a bulbous and tall neck water vessel with breast-like spout, similar to those still in use today have been found from Majapahit period sites.

Heads

Many small heads are found in the surrounding environs with no bodies. These range in size from 3 cm up to 10 cm. Many of these heads show Javanese features with hair style and ear ornamentation. Some think that the reason there are so many more heads and headless bodies found than complete figurines is that they were decapitated in ritual offerings. If one is to look at contemporary Bali as a shadow of Majapahit, even today a small ceremony is sometimes performed in which a pair of small figures are placed on the rice field wall. These are made out of clay, unfired and are left to be reabsorbed by the elements, For the most part these heads are solid, but occasionally thin walled examples are found. It is postulated that the more heavily ornamented faces represent ladies belonging to the upper classes.

Figurines
thumb|left|300px|Majapahit figurine
Many human figurines have been found decapitated, suggesting their use as effigies or religious offerings. However, construction techniques may also have rendered them fragile. Another explanation is that these figurines were secular play objects, cast aside once broken. Commonly the figurines are small, measuring and constructed by the coil and pinch methods with carved or incised decorations, a forming method that is sculptural. Other figurines are made by moulding, as is the figure in the first image two images below. This is an unusual example in that there is no fracture line at the neck. The variety of expression is infinite with naturalistic postures and facial expressions. Complete figurines are rare compared to the many headless figures or heads without bodies. They often take the form of a woman sitting in a polite female pose, on her calves with her feet tucked underneath. The figure on the Right is complete. The second figurine the head has been separated but the two fragments were found together. She sits holding something to her chest. This is either a talam or offering tray, or as Kunst (1927) thought, it may be a drum. The third figurine is sitting and playing what can clearly be seen as a musical instrument. Next to her is a figurine with a red slip around her neck, presumably where at the place where the head would be separated. The reason for there being so many heads without bodies is unknown but it is speculated that the figurines were possibly decapitated in a ritual offering.

Other purposes

The people of Majapahit exploiters terracotta earthenware method, producing various objects for their daily needs. Among wide ranges objects are; roof and floor tiles to terracotta water pipes and other architectural ornaments.

Hammer-headed tenon
|
thumb|alt=Sample detail of Hammer-headed tenon.|Example detail of Hammer-headed tenon.
thumb|alt=Sample detail of Hammer-headed tenon.|Example detail of Hammer-headed key.
Hammer-headed tenon joints are one method that can be used to join curved members of joinery components.
The hammer-headed tenon is used to join a curved member to a straight member such as a curved head member to a jamb. The tenon is formed on the jamb and the mortise to receive the tenon is formed on the curved member. The mortise is increased in size to receive a pair of folding wedges each side of the tenon.
The hammer-headed key is used where there is no straight member to form the tenon. It is difficult to form a strong tenon on curved cut timber as the short grain there will weaken it, so two mortise sockets are formed one in each piece and a separate tenon piece called a key is formed to fit. As with the hammer-headed tenon the mortise sockets are increased in size to allow for the folding wedges each side of the tenon.
When the joint is fitted and glued together it is the folding wedges that give the cramping effect that tightens the shoulder of the joint.
Both these hammer-headed joints need good attention to detail from the joiner as they are difficult to make completely by machine or power tool.
Other joints that can be used on curved headed frames are:
Draw dowelled bridle or mortise
Handrail bolts and dowels

The Netherlands–Venezuela Boundary Treaty is a 1978 treaty between territory of the Netherlands and Venezuela which delimits the maritime boundary between territory of the Kingdom of the Netherlands and Venezuelan territory.<ref>Anderson, Ewan W. (2003). {{Google books|E7-menNPxREC|International Boundaries: A Geopolitical Atlas, p. 592|page592}}; Jagota, S. P. {{Google books|7H59YEj-zC0C|Maritime Boundaries, pp. 105-108.|page105}}</ref> When the treaty was concluded in 1978, the treaty set out the boundary between what was known as the Netherlands Antilles and Venezuela. Today, it establishes the boundary between Aruba and Venezuela, between Curaçao and Venezuela, and between the BES islands and Venezuela.
The treaty was signed on 31 March 1978. The text of the treaty establishes a complex border that is set out in four individual maritime sectors. Sector A creates the boundary between the ocean west of Aruba and Venezuelan territory. Sector B creates the boundary between the Venezuelan mainland and the Leeward Islands of the Netherlands Antilles (including Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao). Sector C creates the boundary between Bonaire and Venezuelan territory. Finally, further north, Sector D creates the boundary between Isla Aves (Venezuela) and Saba and Sint Eustatius (Netherlands Antilles). The far eastern point of Sector C and the far western point of Sector D are connected by the west–east United States – Venezuela boundary, which was agreed to in the United States – Venezuela Maritime Boundary Treaty, signed just days before the Netherlands–Venezuela treaty.
In places, the boundary lines were adjusted from the natural equidistant lines because of considerations of the placement of oilfields and other mineral deposits in the area.
The full name of the treaty is Boundary Delimitation Treaty between the Republic of Venezuela and the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

His work has received noteworthy attention from notable persons such as Amitai Etzioni, Professor Kosta Tsipis of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the late Kenneth Boulding, John Kenneth Galbraith, Jan Tinbergen (Nobel Laureate in Economics), and Retired USN Rear Admiral Eugene J. Carroll, Jr. Etzioni was the Series Editor for the series "Studies in Socio-Economics", a culmination of research presented at the International Society for the Advancement of Socio-Economics. An edited book by Dumas, The Socio-Economics of Conversion from War to Peace was included in the series. (See Publications for a full citation for this book.) Of Dumas' contribution to macroeconomic theory, Kenneth Boulding wrote in the preface to Dumas' book, The Overburdened Economy, "This is a very important book. ... Lloyd Dumas has challenged one of the implicit assumptions of the Keynesian Revolution ... the assumption that all activity which is paid for must be productive. His questioning of this assumption may well set off a reorganization of the economic information system ... Dumas's work is a very valuable contribution to the coming transformation of economic thought" (p. xi). In praise of the same book (see blurbs or dust jacket), Galbraith wrote "This is a book of real substance by a scholar of high competence. ... I urge for it and for Professor Dumas the attention they both deserve." and Jan Tinbergen wrote "[The Overburdened Economy] throws much light on the problem of the deceleration of economic growth of both the USA and the Soviet Union."

My Bill is a 1938 American drama film starring Kay Francis as a poor widow raising four children.

Plot
In the late 1930s, Mary Colbrook is the widow of Reginald Colbrook, Sr. She has four children: Muriel, a young adult; teenagers Gwendolyn and Reginald, Jr.; and, the youngest, Bill. Mary has financial difficulty in maintaining the home. Bill befriends Adelaide Crosby, an elderly woman, who considers Bill a nuisance after he accidentally broke her window with a thrown football. However, Bill's concern for Mrs. Crosby eventually endears him to her.
The late Reginald Sr.'s sister, "Aunt" Caroline Colbrook arrives. She criticizes Mary's parenting in front of the children, and says that Mary squandered her brother's money which resulted in their current financial strife. Caroline insists on the three oldest children living with her, insinuating that Bill is not her brother's son. Now angry with their mother, the three oldest children agree to live with Caroline who is more financially able to fulfill their desires. Caroline moves into Mary's house when Mary's lease expires and kicks Bill and Mary out. Bill and Mary take up residence with Mrs. Crosby.
Bill sells newspapers to help raise money for his mother, and is assisted by local banker, John C. Rudlin. Soon, Caroline's strict demands on the three oldest children cause them to have a change of heart. They write a letter to Mary asking for forgiveness. Mrs. Crosby dies, and leaves her entire estate to Bill. Bill is surprised Mrs. Crosby's estate includes not only her house, but also the house where his family lives. Bill returns to his home, now as its owner. Mary joins him and accepts her children's forgiveness.
Caroline returns, and it is revealed that Reginald, Sr. was just as mean as his sister, and Mr. Rudlin was always Mary's true love. However, Mary remained loyal to her husband out of financial necessity; and, he fathered all four children. Rudlin says he still loves Mary. Caroline is kicked out of the house and the Colbrook family is restored.

Production
The film was based a 1928 play by Tom Barry, called Courage. Warners had previously filmed it in 1930 under that title with Belle Bennett. The number of children in the play was eight; this was reduced to four.
It was the first movie Kay Francis made for Warners' B unit under Byrnie Foy. Francis was being paid a high salary and Warners were keen for her to quit but she refused in order that she could still get her salary. She would make five films for him in all.<ref>{{cite web|urlhttp://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/title/3269/My-Bill/articles.html|websiteTurner Classic Movies|title=My Bill}}</ref>
Vincent Sherman said he had to rewrite the script in only a few days – he was given the play on Thursday and he handed in a script on Monday.<ref>{{cite book|urlhttps://archive.org/stream/justmakingmovies00davi#page/89/mode/1up|page89|titleJust Making Movies|firstRonald L.|lastDavis|publisherUniversity of Mississippi Press|year=2005}}</ref>

Reception
The Allmusic review by Scott Yanow awarded the album 4½ stars and states "A measure of the band's popularity is that Lloyd and his sidemen were able to have a very successful tour of the Soviet Union during a period when jazz was still being discouraged by the communists. This well-received festival appearance has four lengthy performances... and Lloyd (who has always had a soft-toned Coltrane influenced tenor style and a more distinctive voice on flute) is in top form".<ref name"Allmusic">Yanow, S.

Crystal (novel)
|
Crystal is a young adult novel by Walter Dean Myers. It was first published in 1987 and later republished by Amistad in 2002. The book focuses on Crystal Brown, a 16-year-old African American girl who is destined for stardom when she lands a contract with a modeling agency.
Summary
Crystal Brown has always been told that she is beautiful. She lives with her mother, Mrs. Brown, who is also beautiful, and her loving, but strict father. They live in the borough of Brooklyn in New York City. Crystal is at first elated when she lands a modeling contract with a fashion agency, because she likes to model and can possibly be famous. As the novel continues, Crystal realizes that the modeling business is not all it is cut out to be. Her friendship with her best friend, Pat, is suffering, her grades are slipping, and on top of all of that, Crystal feels her self-respect is at risk. She especially feels this way when her photographer, Jerry Goodwin, wants her to pose nude. Crystal starts to feel that the modeling business is just all about how she looks and not who she is. Soon, Crystal realizes she wants to quit. Her agent, Loretta, however, insists Crystal star in a movie that will ultimately boost her fame. Crystal refuses. Soon after, a fellow model named Rowena commits suicide. This finally makes Crystal quit the modeling industry. The novel ends with a man coming up to Crystal and giving her his card. He says: "...Edward Abruzzi, Photographer...I think you could get into modeling...”
Main characters
Crystal Brown- The protagonist of this story. She is beautiful, but does not have very good grades. She cares, however, about her self-respect and life.
Pat- Crystal's best friend. She has better grades than her friend. As the novel progresses she becomes increasingly envious of Crystal's beauty because of all the advantages Crystal seems to receive at school and elsewhere.
Loretta- Crystal's agent who insists that Crystal star in a movie.
Jerry Goodwin- Crystal's photographer who although is kind to Crystal, insists that Crystal pose nude in order to make it in the modeling business.
Mrs. Brown- Crystal's mother. She is beautiful like her daughter. She encourages Crystal strongly to do well in modeling so she can have better opportunities then she did.
Mr. Brown- Crystal's father. He does not know much about modeling but is encouraging to whatever Crystal does.
Rowena- A fellow white model that Crystal meets. They eventually become friends. Rowena thinks that she is not beautiful, and near the end of the novel tries to kill herself. She is not successful, but a few days later dies at the hospital. Before she dies, she tells Crystal that her real name is rosa DeLea.
Joe Sidney- A famous man who is in charge of the movie Loretta wants Crystal to star in. Crystal feels uncomfortable when he "feels her up" the first time they meet.

Birch Run Speedway
|
Birch Run Speedway and Event Center, until 2017 known as Dixie Motor Speedway, is a 4/10 (.400) mile, progressively banked, D-shaped oval short track, with an adjoining 1/3 (.333) mile as well as a Figure 8 course located near Birch Run, Michigan. The speedway changed its name from Dixie Speedway to Birch Run Speedway in 2017.
Track history
Birch Run Speedway opened in 1948 as a 1/3 mile dirt oval. The track spent its opening decade plus as a dirt track before being paved in the early-1960s.
The track experienced consistent growth over the decades, under the ownership of the Doering and Scrivo families, with a Figure 8 course being built through the in-field pit area, moving that area to outside of the 1/3 mile oval.
The Kern family took ownership in 1996 and the Speedway then saw its greatest period of growth. A luxury VIP box was built at the top of the main grandstands, new bathrooms were installed, brand new stadium quality lights were installed to replace to outdated system previously there, a new tech barn was built in the pits and the most noticeable addition was the building of a progressively banked 4/10s mile oval.
At the conclusion of the 2008 season, the Kern family announced their intentions to retire as track operators, handing over the reins of the facility to Checkered Flag Promotions.
In 2017 the track was purchased by local car dealer Andy Suski and renamed the Birch Run Speedway & Event Center. Though the facility name has been changed the big ovals in the middle are still called the Dixie.

Soundtrack is a live album by jazz saxophonist Charles Lloyd recorded at The Town Hall, New York City in 1968 by the Charles Lloyd Quartet featuring Keith Jarrett, Ron McClure and Jack DeJohnette.<ref>[http://www.keithjarrett.it/keith-jarrett/discography/with-charles-lloyd/soundtrack/ Keith Jarrett discography] accessed January 22, 2010.</ref>
Reception
The Allmusic review by Thom Jurek awarded the album 4 stars and states "Soundtrack, stomps with all the fury of a live gospel choir trying to claim Saturday night for God instead of the other guy... The band is in a heavy Latin mood, where the blues, samba, bossa, hard bop, modal, and even soul are drenched in the blues. With only four tunes presented, the Charles Lloyd Quartet, while a tad more dissonant than it had been in 1966 and 1967, swings much harder, rougher, and get-to-the-groove quicker than any band Lloyd had previously led... This band would split soon after, when Jarrett left to play with Miles Davis, but if this was a live swansong, they couldn't have picked a better gig to issue".<ref name"Allmusic">Jurek, T.

A Hole in One is a 2004 film co-starring Michelle Williams and Meat Loaf. The film marked the feature debut of writer/director Richard Ledes. It received its premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2003.<ref>{{cite web |urlhttp://www.screamstress.com/2009/11/richard-ledes-foreclosure/ |titleInterview With Filmmaker Richard Ledes About Upcoming Haunt Flick 'Foreclosure' |publisherEveryJoe |date2009-11-19 |accessdate2012-09-08 |archive-urlhttps://archive.today/20120918224451/http://www.screamstress.com/2009/11/richard-ledes-foreclosure/ |archive-date2012-09-18 |url-statusdead }}</ref>
Plot
Anna (Michelle Williams) is a young woman in an American suburb in the early 1950s. She is disturbed by her family’s rejection of her brother, a World War II veteran who comes home shell shocked. The impressionable girl is lured into a relationship with Billy, a local mob boss. When Anna’s brother dies and she witnesses Billy murder a local nightclub owner, she is driven to the edge of sanity. She develops a fixation with mental health that drives her to seek out a transorbital lobotomy. Anna learns about the procedure through sensational newspapers and Life magazine, which advertises the operation as the new vogue in American medicine. Also, her small town is buzzing about it when Dr. Harold Ashton, the foremost practitioner of this brand of lobotomy, comes to town. He starts performing the <nowiki>“icepick lobotomy”</nowiki> on alcoholics, veterans, and other troubled outsiders.
Billy is concerned with his girlfriend's obsession. He directs his girlfriend to a fake clinic fronted by Tom, a Korean War veteran on Billy’s payroll who masquerades as a neurologist. Tom convinces Anna to delay the procedure and visit him that night. Tom and Anna share their traumas with one another and grow closer. Billy finds them together and sets off a final conflict that draws the film to a close.
Development
The idea for A Hole in One was born out of a performance piece Ledes had staged at the American Fine Arts Gallery in SoHo in the early 1990s. The performance was based on the records of a WWII veteran who had experienced a psychotic break and for whom it had been recommended that he receive a lobotomy. Ledes conducted extensive research for the film over many years, including volunteering at an outpatient center for severely mentally ill. Additionally, he visited George Washington University, which holds the archives of Dr. Walter Freeman.<ref name"nytimes">{{cite web|authorRandy Kennedy |urlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2004/04/29/movies/a-filmmaker-inspired-by-lobotomy.html |titleA Filmmaker Inspired By Lobotomy |workNew York Times |date2004-04-29 |accessdate=2012-09-08}}</ref>
Rather than doing a documentary on Freeman or case studies on mental illness, Ledes opted for fiction:
;;“I never considered doing a documentary. For me it was always important to tell the story in this way. That there were truths about the subject of mental illness and the use of transorbital lobotomy that were inseparable from the truths that one finds in storytelling rather than the true and false of science.”<ref name="Richard Ledes 2003">Richard Ledes. Audio commentary. A Hole in One. Dir. Ledes. Perf.Michelle Williams. Meat Loaf Aday. 2003. DVD.Fox Lorber. 2004.</ref>
Ledes’ screenplay draws heavily on documents such as the New York Departmental of Mental Hygiene Annual Report of 1953.<ref name="nytimes" />
In his DVD commentary for A Hole in One, Ledes mentions other insightful sources: Great and Desperate Cures: The Rise and Decline of Psychosurgery and Other Radical Treatments for Mental Illness and Last Resort: Psychosurgery and Other Radical Treatments for Mental Illness by Jack David Pressman. He also cites The Lobotomist: A Maverick Medical Genius and His Tragic Quest to Rid the World of Mental Illness by Jack El-Hai, which came out after A Hole in One, as a reliable reference point.<ref name="Richard Ledes 2003"/>
Ledes has compared the character of Dr. Ashton to Dr. Strangelove. While he isn’t modeled on one historical person, he is derived from real-life figures.<ref name"Richard Ledes 2003"/>ReceptionAs of June 2014, the film scores 17% on Rotten Tomatoes from 12 reviews.<ref>{{cite web|titleA Hole In One|urlhttp://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/a_hole_in_one/|websiteRotten Tomatoes|accessdate2 June 2014}}</ref>References{{reflist}}External links

Description
The adult sycamore lace bug is milky white in colour and between {{convert|3.2|and|3.7|mm|in|2|abbron}} in length. It is similar in appearance to the cotton lace bug (Corythucha gossypii) and the Florida oak lace bug (Corythucha floridana), but lacks the brown crescent-shaped band on the carina (ridge on the body-wall) of the former and is larger than the latter. The only brown colour is a small spot on the protuberance on each elytron (wing-case).<ref nameIFAS /> The nymphs are oval in shape, dorso-ventrally flattened, black and prickly.<ref namedefra /> This lace bug can most easily be distinguished from other species by its presence on sycamore.<ref nameIFAS />
Distribution and hosts
Corythucha ciliata is native to North America and is found where its host trees grow. The main host is the American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis) but it is sometimes found on other species of Platanus, and it has been recorded on Broussonetia papyrifera, Carya ovata, Chamaedaphne sp., Fraxinus sp., Quercus laurifolia and Liquidambar styraciflua.<ref nameIFAS>{{cite web |urlhttp://entnemdept.ufl.edu/creatures/trees/sycamore_lace_bug.htm |titleSycamore lace bug |author Halbert, Susan E. |workFeatured Creatures |publisherIFAS |accessdate=11 July 2017}}</ref>
In Europe the sycamore lacebug was first observed in 1964 in Padova, Italy, and has since spread throughout Southern and Central Europe with populations are far east as Uzbekistan, infesting the London plane (Platanus × hispanica).<ref>Pralavorio, d'Aguilar R.; Rabasse J.M.; Mouton R. 1977.

When the eggs hatch, the juveniles stay close together at first, only moving onto a new leaf at the fourth instar stage. They puncture the epidermis of the leaf with their mouth parts and suck sap. There are five instars, after which the nymphs undergo incomplete metamorphosis to become adults. During the summer in Oklahoma, the whole cycle takes about 44 days. In the warmer parts of the insect's range, between {{convert|19|°C|°F|0|abbron}} and {{convert|33|°C|°F|0|abbron}} being considered ideal,{{sfn|Malumphy|Reid|Eyre|Lindley-Klassen|2023|p1-2}} there may be several generations (1-3){{sfn|Malumphy|Reid|Eyre|Lindley-Klassen|2023|p1-2}} each year.<ref nameIFAS /> The insects are restricted to the underside of the leaves where little black mounds of dried frass can be seen and the shed skins of the nymphs often adhere to the leaf.

Accelerated life testing
|
Accelerated life testing is the process of testing a product by subjecting it to conditions (stress, strain, temperatures, voltage, vibration rate, pressure etc.) in excess of its normal service parameters in an effort to uncover faults and potential modes of failure in a short amount of time. By analyzing the product's response to such tests, engineers can make predictions about the service life and maintenance intervals of a product.
In polymers, testing may be done at elevated temperatures to produce a result in a shorter amount of time than it could be produced at ambient temperatures. Many mechanical properties of polymers have an Arrhenius type relationship with respect to time and temperature (for example, creep, stress relaxation, and tensile properties). If one conducts short tests at elevated temperatures, that data can be used to extrapolate the behavior of the polymer at room temperature, avoiding the need to do lengthy, and hence expensive tests.
Purpose
ALT is primarily used to speed up tests. This is particularly useful in several cases:
Low failure - Testing even a very large sample at normal conditions would yield few or no failures in a reasonable time.
High longevity - The product must be reliable for a much longer time than can be reasonably tested at normal conditions.
High wear-out - The primary cause of failure occurs over an extended amount of time.
For instance, a reliability test on circuits that must last years at use conditions (high longevity) would need to yield results in a much shorter time. If the test wanted to estimate how frequently the circuits needed to be replaced, then the category of low failure would also be applicable. Furthermore, if the circuits wore out from gradual use rather than extreme use (such as a large sudden shock), the wear out category would be involved. If a sudden shock was the primary cause of failure, a Highly Accelerated Life Test may be more appropriate.
Setting up a test
Designing a test involves considering what factors affect the test object, what you already know about the test object's behavior, and what you want to learn from the test.
Test Conditions
All factors thought to influence the test object should be involved and tests should be conducted at various levels of each factor. Higher stress levels will speed up the test more however the cause of failure or other response measured must not be changed. For instance, melting components in a circuit would alter why the circuit failed. Increasing the number of tests or the number of test objects in each test generally increases how precisely one can infer the test object's behavior at operating conditions.
Picking a Model
A model is an equation that accurately relates a test object's performance to the levels of stress on it. This can be referred to as an acceleration model, with any constants called acceleration factors. The acceleration model is usually related to the types of materials or components tested. A few equations used for acceleration models are the Arrhenius for high temperature fatigue, Eyring for temperature and humidity, and the Blattau model for temperature cycling.
When the model is known in advance the test only needs to identify the parameters for the model, however it is necessary to ensure that the model being used has been well verified. Established models must show agreement between extrapolations from accelerated data and observed data across a range of stress factors.
When the appropriate model is not known in advance, or there exist multiple accepted models, the test must estimate what model fits best based on the context of the test and results from testing. Even if two models fit data at high stresses equally well, they may differ by orders of magnitude at lower stresses. This issue can be approached by more tests at a greater range of stresses however the cause of failure must remain unchanged. A possible pre-experiment approach to minimize this is to estimate what data you expect from testing, fit a model to the data, and determine if one would be able to make reliable conclusions if everything went as expected.
Acceleration Factors
Inference from the results of an accelerated life test requires being able to relate the test object's response (lifespan, corrosion, efficiency, etc...) to the levels of applied stress factors over time.
How one factors in the effect of time depends largely on what one is measuring. For instance, a test that is measuring lifespan may look only at the mean time to failure of the test objects, or it may try to fit a statistical distribution to the data. This is usually referred to as a life distribution, the probability density function of which represents the proportion of products failing at a given time. Several distributions for this purpose are the exponential, Weibull, log-normal, and gamma distributions. In any case, the parameters would be related to the test subjects and the levels of the stress factors being tested.
As a simplified example, consider a test object with a life distribution that roughly matches a normal distribution. Tests at various stress levels would yield different values for the mean and standard deviation of the distribution. (its parameters) One would then use a known model or attempt to fit a model to relate how each stress factor influenced the distributions parameters. This relation would then be used to estimate the life distribution at operating conditions.
Step-Stress Accelerated Life Test
A step stress ALT is a variant of ALT that tests a component at multiple stress levels, one after the other. Components that survive one test are immediately subjected to the next. These are widely modeled under the assumption that survival life of a product depends only on the current level of stress and how many test subjects have failed so far. Step stress ALT can increment low to high, high to low, or through a mix of levels. A step stress ALT test that is interested in extrapolating a life distribution to constant operating conditions must be able to relate the life distribution observed under changing stresses to one of constant stresses.

Canada–France Maritime Boundary Case
|
thumb|The boundaries of the 1992 EEZ arbitral decision between Canada and France following Canada's 1996 EEZ extension
The Canada–France Maritime Boundary Case was a dispute between Canada and France that was decided in 1992 by an arbitral tribunal created by the parties to resolve the dispute. The decision established the extent of the Exclusive Economic Zone of the French territory of Saint Pierre and Miquelon.
Background
In 1972, Canada and France signed a treaty that delimited the territorial maritime boundary between Canada and the French territory of Saint Pierre and Miquelon. However, the maritime boundaries beyond the territorial sea (including extent of the Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ) of both countries) continued to be disputed. The extent of each country's EEZ was significant because it would determine where the countries had an exclusive right to fish. Years of failed negotiations led Canada and France to agree in March 1989 to establish an ad hoc arbitral tribunal that would resolve the dispute.
Arbitral tribunal
The arbitral tribunal was composed of five arbitrators—three neutral parties and one representative from each country. The neutral arbitrators were Eduardo Jiménez de Aréchaga of Uruguay (president), Gaetano Arangio-Ruiz of Italy, and Oscar Schachter of the United States. Canada's representative was Allan Gotlieb and France's was Prosper Weil.
Decision
The arbitral tribunal issued its decision and award on 10 June 1992. It was a 3–2 decision, with the representatives of both Canada and France dissenting from the decision. The zone that was awarded to France was unusual and in two parts: first, the boundary was set at an equidistant line between the French islands and the Canadian island of Newfoundland. Added to this was a 24 nautical mile bulge on the west of the islands. Lastly, a long north–south corridor south of the islands was awarded to France, presumably to allow France access to its EEZ from international waters without having to pass through the Canadian EEZ. The corridor is narrow, being approximately 10½ nautical miles wide. The shape of the award has been likened to a keyhole, a mushroom, and a baguette.
The award was approximately 18% of the territory that France had initially been claiming.
Criticism
Since the 1992 award, the decision has been criticised by both Canadian and French commentators as well as neutral observers, noting that a straightforward application of the Convention on the Law of the Sea would extend Canada's EEZ beyond the limits of the French corridor, a circumstance that was not intended by the arbitral tribunal. Indeed, in 1996, Canada unilaterally extended its EEZ using Sable Island as a base point, meaning that the French EEZ became entirely enveloped within Canada's EEZ.

|
thumb|right|Mike Scioscia (1976) won championships with the Dodgers in 1981 and 1988.|alt=A man in a red warmup with gray pants stands arguing with a man in a black baseball jersey and dark gray pants.
The Los Angeles Dodgers are a Major League Baseball (MLB) franchise based in Los Angeles, California. They play in the National League West division. Since the institution of MLB's Rule 4 Draft, the Dodgers have selected 67 players in the first round. Officially known as the "First-Year Player Draft", In addition, teams which lost free agents in the previous off-season may be awarded compensatory or supplementary picks.
Of the 67 players picked in the first round by Los Angeles, 37 have been pitchers, the most of any position; 24 of these were right-handed, while 12 were left-handed. Nine players at shortstop and nine in the outfield were selected, while five catchers, three first basemen, and three third basemen were taken as well. The team also selected two players at second base. Seven of the players came from high schools or universities in the state of Texas, while California follows with six players.
Nine Dodgers first-round picks have won a World Series championship with the team. Pitchers Bob Welch (1977) and Steve Howe (1979) played with the 1981 championship team. Shortstop Dave Anderson (1981) and first baseman Franklin Stubbs (1982) were a part of the 1988 championship team. Catcher Mike Scioscia (1976) won championships with both teams. Pitchers Clayton Kershaw (2006) and Walker Buehler (2015), shortstop Corey Seager (2012), and catcher Will Smith (2016) all played with the 2020 championship team. Welch was also on the Oakland Athletics' 1988 team which lost to the Dodgers in the 1988 Series.
The Dodgers have made 11 selections in the supplemental round of the draft and have never made the first overall selection. They have also had 16 compensatory picks since the institution of the First-Year Player Draft in 1965. or, more recently, if a team fails to sign a draft pick from the previous year. The Dodgers have failed to sign one of their first-round picks, Luke Hochevar (2005), but received no compensation pick.

Footnotes
Through the 2012 draft, free agents were evaluated by the Elias Sports Bureau and rated "Type A", "Type B", or not compensation-eligible. If a team offered arbitration to a player but that player refused and subsequently signed with another team, the original team was able to receive additional draft picks. If a "Type A" free agent left in this way, his previous team received a supplemental pick and a compensatory pick from the team with which he signed. If a "Type B" free agent left in this way, his previous team received only a supplemental pick. However, if the free agent's last team acquired the player in a trade during the last year of his contract, it is ineligible to receive compensatory picks for that player.

Stadium
Al-Arabi does not have its own football stadium, and uses a playground for training. A sport compound was built in Unaizah with facilities for a wide range of competitive sports, and the General Presidency of Youth Welfare decided to hold a draw between the city's two clubs for the right to use it. Al-Najma SC gained the right to use the stadium without a draw.
In February 2007 during an interview on a program called C.V., Saleh Al-Wassel, the then-president of Al-Najma, admitted that he used his influence to obtain the newly built sports facility in Unaizah.
Al Arabi is currently playing all of its home matches at the Department of Education Stadium.
Indoor facilities
Al-Arabi Pavilion is an indoor sports arena used particularly for basketball and handball matches for the club. The capacity of the stadium is 7,000 people, and was built in 2007.
