2,3-Dihydrothiophene

2,3-Dihydrothiophene is a heterocyclic compound and an organosulfur compound with the formula SC4H6. It is isomeric with the more symmetrical 2,5-dihydrothiophene. Both isomers of dihydrothiophene are colorless liquids with a thioether-like odor. In terms of their reactivity, both isomers exhibit characteristics of alkenes and thioethers, undergoing addition reactions at carbon and oxidation at sulfur. In contrast, thiophene engages in neither reaction.

Dihydrothiophenes in nature

Dihydrothiophenes contribute to the aroma of the white truffle. The major component is 3-methyl-4,5-dihydrothiophene (alternative name:4-methyl-2,3-dihydrothiophene), produced by bacterial colonies in the truffle's fruiting bodies.

Chronology of the Indiana Dunes

The Indiana dunes have been a cross road of activity since the glacierJacques Marquette and René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle traversed this area. As early as 1862, the area was noted for its unique natural resources. At the start of the 20th century, the dunes were a living laboratory for scientist studying plants, animals, and the changes in the land. The first ecologist (Henry Chandler Cowles) did his pioneering work here.

A student of Cowles, O. D. Frank continued Cowle's studies.

Burger King (Mattoon, Illinois)

Mattoon's Burger King in September 2007

Burger King is a restaurant founded by the Hoots family and operated by Burger King LLC of Illinois in Mattoon, Illinois, United States; it is not related to the fast food chain Burger King. The restaurant's founders claim that it is the "original" Burger King and predates the fast food chain. A 1968 court case between this restaurant and the larger Burger King chain is a notable case in United States trademark law regarding the Lanham Act.

History

The Burger King in May 2011

Mattoon residents Gene and Betty Hoots bought the successful Frigid Queen ice cream shop from Gene's uncle, Bill Paullin, in 1952.

In 1959, after prompting by his uncle, Gene registered the name "Burger King" as a state trademark in Illinois, and the Hootses were official owners and operators of the only "Burger King" restaurant in Illinois at the time.

The Hootses retired in February 2015 and sold the company to a local businessman, Cory Sanders. Sanders announced that he would continue to operate the restaurant but would be making several changes including a planned remodel of the interior, menu expansion and price reductions. He also said that he intends to host car shows, fundraisers for local charities, and increase web and social media presence of the restaurant.

Name dispute

The Hoots family learned of the Burger King in Florida and that company's plans for Illinois. The Hootses and their lawyer thought that their state trademark, which was in use before the Florida chain moved into the state, gave them exclusive rights to the "Burger King" name all over the state. However, the Florida chain opened its first Illinois restaurant in Skokie (a Chicago suburb) in 1961; by 1967, the chain had 50 restaurants in Illinois, and the Hootses felt that they needed to take action.

The Hootses filed suit in state court, and the Florida company responded with a federal suit: Burger King of Florida, Inc. v. Hoots (1968).7th Circuit Court of Appeals, whose decision still stands as an important interpretation of the Lanham Act.


Burger King (Mattoon, Illinois)

The court ruled that, because of the federal trademark registration, and because the federal law indicated priority over state law,20 miles (32 km) and centered on the Hootses' restaurant. Thus, the closest Burger King for the Florida chain is located approximately 25 miles (40 km) north of Mattoon in Tuscola, Illinois. As of 2021, the Florida chain has 319 locations in Illinois outside the 20-mile Mattoon area.

Betty Hoots said that Burger King Corp. offered the Hootses $10,000 for the right to operate a Burger King restaurant within the 20-mile Mattoon area, but the Hootses declined.

Alfons Mumm von Schwarzenstein

Philipp Alfons Freiherr Mumm von Schwarzenstein (19 March 1859 – 10 July 1924) (also known as Alfons von Mumm) was a diplomat of the German Empire. He succeeded the murdered Baron Clemens von Ketteler as ambassador in Beijing in 1900.

Mumm studied law at Göttingen University and entered the diplomatic service afterwards. He served in London (1885), Washington D.C. (1888), Bucharest (1892–93), Rome (1893–94), Luxembourg (1898) and again in Washington (1899). During his years in China, he dealt with the Boxer Rebellion and signed The Boxer Protocol on September 7, 1901, on behalf of Germany, maintained an extraordinarily good relation with Empress Dowager Cixi, but also he took many pictures of China in the 1900s as an amateur photographer. From 1909-11, he was ambassador of the German Reich in Japan. He retired in 1911, but was reactivated 1914 in Berlin.

In March through November 1918, he represented the German Reich in Kiev.

In 1911 he bought and restored a medieval castle in the small village of Portofino, Italy, where he eventually retired in 1920 with his wife Jeannie von Mumm.

Camallanus

Camallanus is a genus of parasitic roundworms in the family Camallanidae.

Camallanus cotti is a parasite of several freshwater fish species including Tachysurus fulvidraco, the yellowhead catfish or Korean bullhead, a species of bagrid catfish found in eastern Asia from Siberia to China, Korea, Vietnam and Laos. Species such as Camallanus fotedari are parasites of aquarium fish. Fenbendazole, a drug, has gained prominence among aquarists as an effective treatment for Camallanus roundworm infestations in freshwater tropical fish.

Camallanus trispinosus has been found in a captive Indian star tortoise (Geochelone elegans).

Chronophone

The Chronophone is an apparatus patented by Léon Gaumont in 1902 to synchronise the Cinématographe (Chrono-Bioscope) with a disc Phonograph (Cyclophone) using a "Conductor" or "Switchboard". This sound-on-disc display was used as an experiment from 1902 to 1910. In January 1911, the industrial exploitation started at the Olympia.Phonoscènes (an early forerunner of music videos) and films parlants ("Talking Films") almost every week from 1911 until 1917 at the Gaumont Palace, "the Greatest Cinema Theatre in the World", previously known as the Paris Hippodrome.

In the United States, the early rival of the Chronophone was the Cameraphone.

2,3-Dimethylpentane

2,3-Dimethylpentane is an organic compound of carbon and hydrogen with formula C
7H
16, more precisely CH
3–CH(CH
3)–CH(CH
3)–CH
2–CH
3: a molecule of pentane with methyl groups –CH
3 replacing hydrogen atoms on carbon atoms 2 and 3. It is an alkane ("paraffin" in older nomenclature), a fully saturated hydrocarbon; specifically, one of the isomers of heptane.

Like typical alkanes, it is a colorless flammable compound; under common ambient conditions, it is a mobile liquid, less dense than water.

2,3-Dimethylpentane is notable for being one of the two simplest alkanes with optical (enantiomeric) isomerism. The optical center is the middle carbon of the pentane backbone, which is connected to one hydrogen atom, one methyl group, one ethyl group –C
2H
5, and one isopropyl group –CH(CH
3)
2. The two enantiomers are denoted (3R)-2,3-dimethylpentane and (3S)-2,3-dimethylpentane. (The other simplest chiral alkane is its structural isomer 3-methylhexane.)

Properties

Most properties listed in the literature refer to the racemic compound (an equimolar mixture of the two optical isomers).

The boiling point of 89.7 °C is 0.3 °C higher than the value of 89.4 °C predicted by Wiener's formula, based on the structure of the molecule and the boiling point of n-heptane.

The speed of sound at 3 MHz is 1149.5 m/s at 20 °C and 889.5 m/s at 80 °C.

The racemic mixture has a glass transition temperature of about 123 K (−150 °C), but reportedly it does not crystallize—a fact that has been claimed to be a characteristic of high-purity optically active alkanes.

Preparation

2,3-Dimethylpentane is practically absent in the synthetic fuel produced from hydrogen and carbon monoxide by the Fischer–Tropsch process.


2,3-Dimethylpentane

The pure compound can be prepared by reacting the Grignard reagent sec-butyl magnesium bromide C
4H
9–MgBr with acetone to form 2,3-dimethyl-2-pentanol, then dehydrating this alcohol to form 2,3-dimethyl-2-pentene, and hydrogenating this product.

The isomer is present at about 2.4% by weight in the hydrocarbon mixture obtained by the condensation of methanol at 200 °C with a zinc iodide catalyst (the main component of the mixture being the isomer 2,2,3-trimethylbutane, obtained at almost 50% yield).

Conasprella arcuata

Conasprella arcuata, common name the arched cone, is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Conidae, the cone snails and their allies.

Like all species within the genus Conus, these cone snails are predatory and venomous. They are capable of "stinging" humans, therefore live ones should be handled carefully or not at all.

Devonshire Close

Devonshire Close

Devonshire Close, originally known as Devonshire Mews East, is a mews street in the City of Westminster, London, accessed from Devonshire Street. The Close is on a distinctive H plan with a middle downwards leg. It dates from the 1770s and originally contained a timber yard, stables, and accommodation for domestic servants who worked in the larger houses surrounding it. Access was limited to the north side in order to divert traffic from the grander north–south streets around it. The Close was gentrified in the 20th century and its buildings converted to mews houses which, like other mews in London, have become desirable in the modern era because they are quiet and have little traffic. The Close is now part of the Howard de Walden Estate.

Origins and layout

Devonshire Mews East on Richard Horwood's map, 1813 edition.

The Close was laid out in the 1770sDorothy Cavendish, later Duchess of Portland, daughter of the 4th Duke of Devonshire.

When developed, Devonshire Street was of somewhat lower social status than the north–south streets and the southern reaches of what is now the Howard de Walden Estate. Accordingly, access to the Mews was only from the north side, rather than the east or west which might impede the north–south flow of traffic, and without a southern entrance or exit.

20th century

Devonshire Close map, 2022

The Survey of London writes of the area that by the start of the 20th century, "the bijou house on side streets or at the back was now making its debut, as motor garages supplanted stinking stables and the mews became detoxified."


Devonshire Close

40 Devonshire Street, a "mews side-house"grade II listed since 1987.Pevsner for its combination of modernism and tradition.Francis Lorne and Ludovic Gordon Farquhar of Burnet, Tait & Lorne for Vincent Gluckstein, chairman of Bovis, who intended to clear the site and build housing. Number 40 was occupied as a house but the modernist 39 was acquired by G. Grey Wornum who used it as the base for his architectural practice, possibly because its modern style did not suit the rest of the area.

Cottage conversions continued after the Second World War at, for instance, number 3 in 1962 and number 2 in 1970–71. Number 32 was converted to offices in 1986. The Survey of London point out the irony that these and similar London mews, once the home of servants and horses and with limited access from the grander streets that surround them, have now become desirable homes precisely because they are quiet and have little traffic.

Boar's Head Society

The Boar's Head Society (1910conversazione society devoted to poetry at Columbia University. It was an "adjunct to Columbia College's Philolexian Society... The purpose of their new society was entirely creative: reading and commenting on each other's works."

History

Boar's Head Well On Way:
Club Hears Noted Critic
Tuesday night in the Commons, Boar's Head, a new literary club formed among the university students interested in literature, listened to a talk given by Clayton Hamilton, dramatic critic on The Bookman. This was the third meeting of the new club and about forty students were present. It is the idea of Professor Erskine, of the English Department and other professors, that Boar's Head will develop into an active literary club. Membership will not be restricted, and any man in the University who is interested in writing or any form of literature may become a member by handing his name to L. Frank '12. At every meeting of the club prominent literary men in New York City will discuss questions of importance. Mr Hamilton last night, spoke on the poetry of Alfred Noyes interpolating many readings. The gathering was strictly informal, the members afterward conversing with the speaker and asking him questions. The name of the club, Boar's Head, will be recalled as the old-time inn when Falstaff made merry over his glass of ale. So, it is the desire of the professors that the club members may gather around a table at the meeting and comfort the inner man while at the same time entering into literary and social discussion.

John Erskine, English professor, formed the society. This connected the society through him to Columbia's student literary magazine, The Morningside Review (founded first as the Literary Monthly in 1815, renamed by Erskine in 1898, and renamed the Columbia Review in 1932).

The society seems to have started during the 1909–1910 academic schoolyear, as in November 1909 it sponsored theatrical productions of Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors and Oscar Wilde's An Ideal Husband.

Competitions

The society also held annual literary competitions and then published winners in the magazine. Competition judges included William Carlos Williams (and Lionel TrillingJohn Berryman, Terrence McNally, John Hollander, and Allen Ginsberg.

At some point, the magazine took over the competition from the society.

Daniel Hamilton (Canadian politician)

Daniel Roy Hamilton (23 April 1892—September 4, 1965)Manitoba, Canada. He served in the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba as a Liberal-Progressive from 1941 to 1953.

Hamilton was first elected to the Manitoba legislature in the 1941 provincial election. A member of the governing Liberal-Progressive party, he defeated a pro-government independent named G.L. Van Vleit, 683 votes to 297, in the remote northern riding of Rupertsland. During this period, elections in Rupertsland were usually held at least two weeks after the rest of the province had voted because of difficulties in accessibility.

Hamilton defeated another pro-government candidate in the 1945 provincial election, and won by acclamation in 1949. He served as a government backbencher during his time in the legislature, through the Liberal-Progressive administrations of John Bracken, Stuart Garson and Douglas Campbell.

During his time in the legislature, Hamilton repeatedly urged that aboriginal Canadians living in Manitoba be given the right to vote. This was permitted by an act of the legislature in 1952. He retired from politics in 1953.

Agecroft Cemetery

Agecroft Cemetery main entrance, Langley Road

Mortuary chapel clock tower

Agecroft Cemetery and Crematorium is a public cemetery in Pendlebury, Salford, Greater Manchester.

Agecroft Cemetery was opened as Salford Northern Cemetery by Salford County Borough Council on 2 July 1903 on 45 acres (18.2 hectares) of ground because the existing cemetery at Weaste was near to capacity. The new cemetery, which lies in the Irwell Valley alongside the river bounded by Agecroft Road (A6044) and Langley Road in Pendlebury, was initially outside the Salford county borough boundary, but has lain within the city since Pendlebury was incorporated into the City of Salford in 1974. Since the cemetery was opened more than 53,700 interments have been carried out. The original non-conformist chapel was converted to a crematorium in January 1957 which since then has handled nearly 60,000 cremation services. The crematorium chapel can hold up to 60 mourners.

In the grounds is a large disused mortuary chapel with a clock tower. It is now derelict and hidden by trees. It is listed as a heritage building at risk by the Victorian Society.

Near the entrance is a stone memorial to the seven-man crew of Lancaster bomber PB304 which crashed in Regatta Street, off Langley Road, Agecroft, Pendlebury very close to the then boundary between Pendleton, Salford and Pendlebury on 30 July 1944 carrying a full bomb load.

The cemetery contains the war graves of 160 Commonwealth service personnel of both of the 20th century's world wars. The majority of the graves are scattered within the cemetery but there is a group of eleven and two special memorial headstones to those whose graves could not be marked.

From Adam to Abraham (1:1–27)


1 Chronicles 1

From Adam to Abraham (1:1–27)

The list of names is taken exclusively from the Book of Genesis and reduced to a 'skeletal framework', with some omissions of those 'whose lines ended with their deaths', such as Cain's descendants and Abraham's brothers.Genesis 5:1–32; verses 5–12 (the genealogy of Noah's sons) match that in Genesis 10:1–32; verses 13–27 (Shem's descendants until Abraham) parallel the genealogy in Genesis 11:10–26.Genesis 17:1), representing a jump from Genesis 11 to Genesis 17.

Verse 1

Adam, Seth, Enosh;

Noah was the immediate descendant of Seth, so it is not necessary to mention Cain and Abel, or any of the other sons of Adam.

Verse 4

Noah, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
  * "Shem, Ham, and Japheth": these are the sons of Noah, and not successive generations, as can be read in the Book of Genesis (Genesis 5–10), which is apparently a source for the Books of Chronicles.Masoretic Text and Latin Vulgate, whereas the Greek Septuagint (LXX) adds "the sons of Noah" before "Shem,..."

Verse 6

And the sons of Gomer; Ashchenaz, and Riphath, and Togarmah.
  * "Riphath": the same as in Genesis 10:3 (רִיפַ֖ת), following many medieval Hebrew manuscripts, LXX and Vulgate, and used in some English translations (NAB, NIV, NLT, etc.), while others (ASV, NASB, NRSV, etc.) follow the Masoretic Text in using "Diphath" (דִיפַ֖ת).

The descendants of Abraham (1:28–54)

This section focuses on the offsprings of Abraham (but none of his brothers').Genesis 36 to list the descendants of Edom who are Judah's neighbors with 'the closest ties through the best and worst of times'.

Verse 39


1 Chronicles 1

And the sons of Lotan; Hori, and Homam: and Timna was Lotan's sister.
  * Cross reference: Genesis 36:22
  * "Timna": a daughter of Seir, who became a concubine to Eliphaz, the son of Esau, and the mother of Amalek (Genesis 36:12). Rashi states that the lineage of Timna was traced because she willingly wished to become a concubine to the seed of Abraham, saying, "If I am not worthy to marry him, I shall be his concubine." (Gen.

The Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute (HWI) is an independent, not-for-profit, biomedical research facility located in the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus affiliated with the University at Buffalo. Its focus is on structural biology with a strong history in methods development and the application of X-ray crystallography in fundamental studies.

Medical research

HWI scientists work to find the fundamental causes of many diseases. For example, cancer is being attacked by identifying new classes of anti-tumor agents including new inhibitors for hormone-dependent breast tumors. Other projects include:

  * Finding new ways to fight opportunistic infections in AIDS patients
  * Combating inflammation in arthritis and cardiovascular disease
  * Preventing bronchial infections in cystic fibrosis patients

HWI scientists use a methodology known as structural biology, which allows them to create 3D models of the molecules that build up cells. The investigation results provide many insights into how these molecular machines work, including the starting points for the design of better drugs. HWI is also focused to developing highly trained researchers and in its role as the Department of Structural and Computational Biology for the University at Buffalo, the Institute typically trains about a dozen PhD students and sponsors internship programs for high school and college students.

History

The Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute was founded in 1956 as the "Medical Foundation of Buffalo" and came into existence through the combined efforts of Dr. George F. Koepf, who provided the vision, and Helen Woodward Rivas, who provided generous financial support. Koepf was a physician and endocrinologist whose interest in research began during his second year at medical school and continued at Johns Hopkins University. After leaving Johns Hopkins, he returned to practice medicine in Buffalo and became a founding member of the Buffalo Medical Group. One of his patients, Helen Woodward Rivas, expressed great interest in funding a medical research effort in Buffalo. Through her $3 million (equivalent to $32,291,000 in 2022) gift, the Medical Foundation (MFB) came into being.

An example of the basic research carried out includes studying disease processes at the molecular scale. For example it was reported


In 1994, the Medical Foundation was renamed the Hauptman-Woodward Medical Research Institute. The name "Hauptman" comes from Herbert A. Hauptman, who pioneered mathematical techniques for determining atomic structure from X-ray diffraction. For this discovery, Hauptman and Jerome Karle were awarded the Nobel prize in chemistry in 1985.

In 1999, the Institute received a three-year $1.5 million (equivalent to $2,635,000 in 2022) challenge grant from the John R. Oishei Foundation along with a $750,000 (equivalent to $1,318,000 in 2022) award from the Margaret L. Wendt Foundation that established a Structural Biology Center at HWI. All aspects of structural research from isolating the gene that codes for a protein of interest to applying the latest crystallographic methods are now possible here. Through this Center, HWI scientists were able to create new and improved crystal growth methods including the development of a novel and patented high-throughput robotic crystallization technique for expediting and optimizing the crystallization process.

In 2001, BWI became a founding partner of the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus "BNMC," and created the University at Buffalo Department of Structural Biology. Dr. George DeTitta was appointed Executive Director and CEO and Dr. Walter Pangborn was appointed to Executive Vice President. Shortly thereafter, four new scientists were added. As the University at Buffalo and Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, both members of BNMC, began plans to construct new facilities, HWI joined to form the Buffalo Life Sciences Complex which is located in the heart of the BNMC adjacent to the UB and Roswell Park sites. CannonDesign was retained along with architect Mehrdad Yazdani to design a research and office complex and construction of the Structural Biology Research Center began in August 2003, through the support of New York State, the Federal Government, local foundations, community leaders, and individuals, as well as financing through KeyBank. BWI moved into the new facility in April 2005, and have since recruited four additional scientists to the facility.

On April 1, 2008, George DeTitta stepped down as CEO to return to full-time work in the lab and on July 1, 2008, Eaton E. (Ed) Lattman, formerly a Professor of Biophysics at Johns Hopkins University became HWI's new CEO. Ed was previously the dean of research and graduate education at Hopkins.

On December 1, 2014, Dr. Edward H. Snell was appointed CEO following eight years of service to HWI as a senior research scientist. Before joining HWI, Dr. Snell was a staff scientist in NASA’s Structural Biology Laboratory at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama.

Battle of Torisaka

The Battle of Torisaka (鳥坂峠の戦い) took place during the Sengoku period (16th century) of Japan. Kōno Michinao asked for the assistance of the Mōri clan in his struggle against Utsunomiya Toyotsuna. The Mōri agreed to the alliance, and sent Kobayakawa Takakage.

Kōno and Kobayakawa brought their combined forces against Utsunomiya Toyotsuna at the Battle of Torisaka and were victorious. However, the Kōno region was retained by Toyotsuna after his defeat in this battle.
