HD 113766

HD 113766 is a binary star system located 424 light years from Earthconstellation Centaurus. The star system is approximately 10 million years old and both stars are slightly more massive than the Sun. The two are separated by an angle of 1.3 arcseconds, which, at the distance of this system, corresponds to a projected separation of at least 170 AU.

What makes HD 113766 special is the presence of a large belt of warm (~440 K) dust surrounding the star HD 113766 A.rocky planet, which when it has formed will lie within the star's terrestrial habitable zone where liquid water can exist on its surface. HD 113766 represents the most well understood system in a growing class of objects that should provide more clues to how rocky planets like the Earth formed.

HD 113766 A

Rocky accretion belt

The dusty material in the system was analyzed in 2007 by a group led by Dr. Carey Lisse, of the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory in Laurel, MD, USA. Observations were made using the infrared spectrometer on board the Spitzer Space Telescope, and interpreted using the results of the NASA Deep Impact and STARDUST missions. Analysis of the atomic and mineral composition, dust temperature, and dust mass show a huge amount of warm material similar to metal rich S-type asteroids in a narrow belt at 1.8 ± 0.2 AU from the 4.4 L☉ HD 113766 A. km in radius which are currently thought to be the basic building blocks of rocky planet formation. Comparison with current planetary formation theories suggests that the disk is in the early stages of terrestrial (rocky) planet formation. This can be also inferred by the presence of metals in the rocky material making up the disk. If planets had already formed the high density metals should have sunk to their cores during the molten stage of planet formation; a process known as planetary differentiation.

Icy accretion belts

While no water gas was found to be associated with the warm dust belt, two concentrations of icy material were found in the system. The first belt lies between 4 and 9 AU, and is at the equivalent position of the solar system's asteroid belt, while the second belt is even farther out between 30 and 80 AU, where the solar system's Kuiper Belt would lie.AU if and when it completes its formation.


HD 113766

There may also be gas giant planets in this system, already formed (in the first 1-5 Myrs) before the current era of rocky planet formation. While none have been detected to date, by analogy with the Solar System, their presence is likely, since evidence for analogues of the Solar System's asteroid belt, Kuiper belt, and terrestrial planets have been found.

HD 113766 B

The star system was first identified as being potentially interesting by Backman et al. using observations made by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) in 1983.AU from the A star where the terrestrial planet is forming. Located at more than 4 times the distance of Pluto from the Sun, HD 113766 B has almost no effect on the material orbiting close to HD 113766 A.

Similar star systems

Binary star systems are common, found more frequently than single star systems like the Sun's. The arrangement of HD 113766, a binary star system with a protoplanetary disk around one star, is somewhat similar to the one-half of the system HD 98800,

Casa Cogollo

Casa Cogollo is a small palazzo in Vicenza built in 1559 and attributed to architect Andrea Palladio. Since 1994 it has formed part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site "City of Vicenza and the Palladian Villas of the Veneto".

Though known as the “House of Palladio”, in reality this building has no connection with the residence of the Vicentine master. Rather it is its dimensions—quite contained in comparison to the monumental emphasis of other Palladian palazzi—which has led astray those seeking a trace of the architect’s residence in the city.

In fact, the Maggior Consiglio (town council) forced the notary Pietro Cogollo to remodel the façade of his 15th century (Quattrocento) house as a contribution to the “decorum of the city”, making this provision (and a monetary investment in the work of not less than 250 ducats) a condition of their positive response to his request for Vicentine citizenship.

In the absence of documents and autograph designs, the attribution to Palladio of this most elegant façade still divides scholars. Yet, because of the intelligence of the architectural solution proposed, as well as the design of all the details, it is difficult to refer the project to any other designer. The constraints posed by a narrow space and the impossibility of opening windows at the centre of the piano nobile (because of an existing fireplace and its flue) induced Palladio to emphasise the façade’s central axis, by realising a structure with a ground floor arch flanked by engaged columns, and on the upper storey a tabernacle frame for a fresco by Giovanni Antonio Fasolo.

The ground level arch is flanked by two rectangular spaces which illuminate and provide access to the portico. Altogether they form a type of serliana, as already done at the Basilica Palladiana. The result is a composition of great monumental and expressive force, despite the simplicity of the means available.

Memphis Teacher Residency

Memphis Teacher Residency (MTR) is a teacher residency located in Memphis, Tennessee, and is a member of the National Center for Teacher Residencies (NCTR) network. MTR is a faith-based, four-year teacher preparation program based on the residency model. During the residency year, residents train with a mentor, receive coaching, and take coursework through Union University, earning a Master of Urban Education degree at the end of the residency year. After the first year, residents are placed in MTR partner schools in six partner under-resourced neighborhoods for a three-year teaching commitment. During these three years, residents teach in local schools while continuing to receive coaching, training, and support through MTR.

Memphis Teacher Residency believes that Educational Inequality is "one of the Greatest Social Justice and Civil Rights Issues in America Today".

"As a response to the gospel mandate to love our neighbors as ourselves, MTR will partner to provide students in Memphis neighborhoods with the same, or better, quality of education as is available to any student in Memphis by recruiting, training and supporting effective teachers within a Christian context.."

Since 2012, Memphis Teacher Residency has been highly rated in the Tennessee Teacher Preparation Report Card.

Coin of Ariarathes I. Obv: B’L GZYR (“Baal [of] Gaziura” in Aramaic), Baal seated. Gaziura mint. 333-322 BC

Gaziura (Greek: Γαζίουρα), was a town in Pontus, on the river Iris, near the point where its course turns northwards. Some scholars equate Gaziura with Talaura,Ibora,Turhal.

It was the ancient residence of the kings of Pontus, but in Strabo's time it was deserted. (Strab. xii.) Dion Cassius (xxxv. 12) notices it as a place where Mithridates VI of Pontus took up his position against the Roman Triarius. (Comp. Pliny vi. 2.)

Joint Plant Committee

Constituted in 1964 by the Ministry of Steel, Government of India for formulating guidelines for production, allocation, pricing and distribution of iron and steel materials, Joint Plant Committee (JPC) underwent a major transformation in 1992, when following the de-regulation of Indian steel industry, it moulded itself into a facilitator for industry, focusing on giving form to a comprehensive and non-partisan databank – the first of its kind in the country – on the Indian iron and steel industry. Today, it is the only institution in the country, officially empowered by the Ministry of Steel, Government of India to collect and report data on the Indian iron and steel industry. Accredited with ISO 9001: 2008 certification, JPC is headquartered at Kolkata with regional offices in New Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai and Chennai and an extension centre in Bhubaneswar, engaged in data collection. The Economic Research Unit (ERU) at New Delhi serves as a wing of JPC to carry out techno-economic studies and policy analysis.

Evolution of JPC

  * 1964 – Constituted

JPC was constituted this year, following the recommendations of Dr. K.N Raj Committee under Clause 17B of the Iron & Steel Control Order, 1956 of the Essential Commodities Act, 1955 with the objective of planning, programming and determination of regulatory production guidelines on iron and steel, including pricing and distribution.

  * 1971 – Greater Empowerment

Vide Notification S.O. 1567/ECS.COMM/IRON &STEEL dated 7 April 1971, the Government specified in detail the composition of the Committee as well as its various functions, thereby empowering JPC with precise directions to undertake its activities.

  * 1992 – De-regulation of Steel Industry

Vide Notification No. SC/1/6/91/D.III dated 16 January 1992 and following the economic order of the day, Indian steel industry was de-controlled, a milestone development that led to far-reaching changes in operational practices and overall spread of industry. In this changed scenario, JPC moulded itself to be a facilitator for the Indian steel industry, focusing on the maintenance of a comprehensive, non-partisan data base on the industry – a first-time attempt to statistically enumerate industry growth.

  * 2003 – Closure of Office of Development Commissioner of Iron &Steel (DCI&S)


Joint Plant Committee

In May 2003, the Office of DCI&S, engaged primarily in data collection work for the small and medium scale sector, was closed down. This led to the entrustment of the responsibility of collection and reporting of data on all segments in the small and medium scale sectors to JPC (which was focusing on main producer till then) vide MoS Notification No. 13(13)30/2001-DI.

  * 2007 – Deletion of Steel From EC Act, 1955

Vide notification No 26(1)/2004-ECR&E (Vol. III) dated 12 February 2007, Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution (Department of Consumer Affairs) announced the deletion of steel from the Essential Commodities Act and Such deletion wavered the very policy foundation of the organisation.

  * 2008 – Notification of Ministry of Steel

Notification No. 4(5)/03-DI. dated 18 August 2008 issued by the Ministry of Steel pronounced the need for continuance of JPC in its present form, in context of its critical database :

    "…the Central Government has decided that the said Joint Plant Committee shall continue to function in its present form along with its present composition and functions…"
  * JPC Today


Joint Plant Committee

Backed by over 4 decades of specialised experience in data management, today JPC is the only organisation in the country, officially authorised by Ministry of Steel, Government of India to collect and report on data on the Indian iron and steel industry. The JPC Database has emerged as the most trusted, comprehensive and non-partisan source of data and information on the Indian steel industry. JPC is also an ISO 9001:2008 organisation indicating the quality of service rendered.
Headquarter of JPC is in Kolkata with regional offices in New Delhi, Kolkata, Mumbai and Chennai, engaged in data collection and industry liaison. In 2014, JPC opened its extension centre in Bhubaneswar, Odisha, in a bid to consolidate and further sharpen the accuracy of its data and data collection system at the regional level. Two more Extension Offices are to be opened, one in Raipur and the other in Bangalore as approved in the 225th meeting of the JPC Apex Committee held on 11 March 2014.
The Economic Research Unit (ERU) at New Delhi serves as a wing of JPC, mainly responsible for analysis of data collected by the JPC and for conducting specific studies/analysis entrusted to it by the Ministry of Steel.The ERU is headed by Chief Economist.

Structure and Composition of JPC

CARINE

For other uses, see Carine (disambiguation).

CARINE (Computer Aided Reasoning Engine) is a first-order classical logic automated theorem prover. It was initially built for the study of the enhancement effects of the strategies delayed clause-construction (DCC) and attribute sequences (ATS) in a depth-first search based algorithm.

Delayed Clause Construction (DCC)

Delayed Clause Construction is a stalling strategy that enhances a theorem prover's performance by reducing the work to construct clauses to a minimum. Instead of constructing every conclusion (clause) of an applied inference rule, the information to construct such clause is temporarily stored until the theorem prover decides to either discard the clause or construct it. If the theorem prover decides to keep the clause, it will be constructed and stored in memory, otherwise the information to construct the clause is erased. Storing the information from which an inferred clause can be constructed require almost no additional CPU operations. However, constructing a clause may consume a lot of time. Some theorem provers spend 30%–40% of their total execution time constructing and deleting clauses. With DCC this wasted time can be salvaged.

DCC is useful when too many intermediate clauses (especially first-order clauses) are being constructed and discarded in a short period of time because the operations performed to construct such short lived clauses are avoided. DCC may not be very effective on theorems with only propositional clauses.

How does DCC work?

After every application of an inference rule, certain variables may have to be substituted by terms (e.g. x → f(a)) and thus a substitution set is formed. Instead of constructing the resulting clause and discarding the substitution set, the theorem prover simply maintains the substitution set along with some other information, like what clauses where involved in the inference rule and what inference rule was applied, and continues the derivation without constructing the resulting clause of the inference rule. This procedure keeps going along a derivation until the theorem provers reaches a point where it decides, based on certain criteria and heuristics, whether to construct the final clause in the derivation (and probably some other clause(s) along the path) or discard the whole derivation i.e., deletes from memory the maintained substitution sets and whatever information stored with them.


CARINE

Attribute sequences (ATS)

(An informal definition of) a clause in theorem proving is a statement that can result in a true or false answer depending on the evaluation of its literals. A clause is represented as a disjunction (i.e., OR), conjunction (i.e., AND), set, or multi-set (similar to a set but can contain identical elements) of literals.

An example of a clause as a disjunction of literals is:

[{\displaystyle \lnot \operatorname {wealthy} (Y)\lor \lnot \operatorname {smart} (Y)\lor \lnot \operatorname {beautiful} (Y)\lor \operatorname {loves} (X,Y)}]

where the symbols [\lor ] and [\lnot ] are, respectively, logical or and logical not.

The above example states that if Y is wealthy AND smart AND beautiful then X loves Y. It does not say who X and Y are though. Note that the above representation comes from the logical statement:

For all Y, X belonging to the domain of human beings:

[{\displaystyle \operatorname {wealthy} (Y)\land \operatorname {smart} (Y)\land \operatorname {beautiful} (Y)\implies \operatorname {loves} (X,Y)}]

By using some transformation rules of formal logic we produce the disjunction of literals of the example given above.

X and Y are variables. [\lnot ]wealthy, [\lnot ]smart, [\lnot ]beautiful, loves are literals. Suppose we substitute the variable X for the constant John and the variable Y for the constant Jane then the above clause will become:

[{\displaystyle \lnot \operatorname {wealthy} ({\text{Jane}})\lor \lnot \operatorname {smart} ({\text{Jane}})\lor \lnot \operatorname {beautiful} ({\text{Jane}})\lor \operatorname {loves} ({\text{John}},{\text{Jane}})}]


CARINE

A clause attribute is a characteristic of a clause. Some examples of clause attributes are:

  * the number of literals in a clause (i.e., clause length)
  * the number of term symbols in a clause
  * the number of constants in a clause
  * the number of variables in a clause
  * the number of functions in a clause
  * the number of negative literals in a clause
  * the number of positive literals in a clause
  * the number of distinct variables in a clause
  * the maximum depth of any term in all the literals in a clause
Example

the clause

[{\displaystyle C=\lnot P(x)\lor Q(a,b,f(x))}]

has:

  * a length of 2 because it contains two literals
      + one negative literal which is [{\displaystyle \lnot P(x)}]
      + one positive literal which is Q(a,b,f(x))
  * two constants which are a and b
  * two variables (x occurs twice)
  * one distinct variable which is x
  * one function which is f
  * maximum term depth of 2
  * five term symbols which are x, a, b, f, x

An attribute sequence is a sequence of k n-tuples of clause attributes that represent a projection of a set of derivations of length k. k and n are strictly positive integers. The set of derivations form the domain and the attribute sequences form the codomain of the mapping between derivations and attribute sequences.

Example

<(2,2),(2,1),(1,1)> is an attribute sequence where k = 3 and n = 2.

It corresponds to some derivation, say, <(B1,B2),(R1,B3),(R2,B4)> where B1, B2, R1, B3, R2, and B4 are clauses. The attribute here is assumed to be the length of a clause.

The first pair (2,2) corresponds to the pair (B1,B2) from the derivation. It indicates that the length of B1 is 2 and the length of B2 is also 2.


CARINE

The second pair (2,1) corresponds to the pair (R1,B3) and it indicates that the length of R1 is 2 and the length of B3 is 1.

The last pair (1,1) corresponds to the pair (R2,B4) and it indicates that the length of R2 is 1 and the length of B4 is 1.

Note: An n-tuple of clause attributes is similar (but not the same) to the feature vector named by Stephan Schulz, PhD (see E equational theorem prover).

Memphis Sounds

The Memphis Sounds were an American professional sports franchise that played in Memphis, Tennessee from 1970 until 1975 as a member of the American Basketball Association. The team was founded as the New Orleans Buccaneers in 1967.

Known during their time in Memphis as the Memphis Pros, Memphis Tams and, finally, Sounds, they played their home games at the Mid-South Coliseum.

New Orleans Buccaneers 1967–1970

Main article: New Orleans Buccaneers

The New Orleans Buccaneers were a charter member of the ABA. The Buccaneers were coached by Babe McCarthy, who was famous for two reasons. One was that he had coached Mississippi State University to a Southeastern Conference championship in an era when that league's basketball was dominated by the University of Kentucky. The other was when the then all-white Mississippi state legislature forbade the team to participate in the racially integrated NCAA Tournament. McCarthy took the team out-of-state in the dead of night and had them participate anyway, which gave him a near-legend status in the eyes of some (and the undying hatred of others).

Memphis Pros 1970–1972

On August 21, 1970, the team was sold to Mississippi businessman P. W. Blake. Ten days later, he moved the team to Memphis and changed its name to the Memphis Pros, reportedly because the already purchased 'Bucs' uniforms could easily be converted to 'Pros' uniforms at little expense.

1970–1971 season

The Pros immediately ran into problems due to the timing of the move. The Mid-South Coliseum was nearly booked through the winter, and the Pros were only able to secure one Friday home game. They were forced to play the balance of their home schedule in several other arenas in Tennessee and Mississippi. Not surprisingly, ticket sales slowed to a trickle; by the start of the season they'd only sold 180 season tickets.


Memphis Sounds

Bob Warren of the Los Angeles Stars joined the team, and Ron Franz and Dave Nash were traded to The Floridians for Wilbert Jones, Al Cueto, and Erv Staggs; later, Red Robbins was traded to the Utah Stars for Craig Raymond and Skeeter Swift was traded to the Pittsburgh Pipers for Charlie Williams. Jimmy Jones, Steve Jones, and Wendell Ladner played in the 1971 ABA All-Star Game; Ladner, a pick in the last ABA draft, also made the ABA All-Rookie team. An average of 3,199 fans attended Pros home games during the season. The Pros finished with 41 wins and 43 losses, which put them in third place in the Eastern Division. The Pros advanced to the playoffs but lost in the Eastern Division semifinals to the Indiana Pacers, four games to none.

The Pros almost did not survive that season. In December 1970, Blake simply walked away from the team, claiming to have lost $200,000. The league desperately tried to find a new owner, but there were no takers. Finally in February, a community group, Memphis Area Sports Inc., bought the team for $700,000. It was composed of 4,600 Tennessee residents who bought the team's stock at $5, $10, and $50 a share and elected a 24-person board to run the team. Memphis bond broker Albert S. Hart was installed as team president.

1971–1972 season

Memphis played their home games at the Mid-South Coliseum

The team signed Johnny Neumann, an underclassman All American from the University of Mississippi, and added Larry Cannon, but lost Steve Jones to the Dallas Chaparrals through free agency; Jimmy Jones also departed, ending up with the Utah Stars.

On October 6, 1971, the Pros hosted the NBA's Boston Celtics for a preseason exhibition game. The Celtics won, 115–94. This was the only time a Memphis team played an NBA team until the Vancouver Grizzlies moved to Memphis in 2001, thirty years later.


Memphis Sounds

The Pros traded Larry Cannon to the Indiana Pacers in mid-season for Don Sidle, and executed another midseason trade which sent Wendell Ladner, Tom Owens, and Bobby Warren to the Carolina Cougars for Randy Denton, Warren Davis, and George Lehmann. The latter trade was initiated by Hart without consulting McCarthy.

The Pros had one player, Wil Jones, play in the 1972 ABA All-Star Game.

Despite (or perhaps because of) all the personnel moves, the team finished with only 26 wins against 58 losses, which put them in fifth (last) place in the Western Division, 34 games behind the Utah Stars, and kept them out of the playoffs.

Although they averaged 4,441 fans per home game, the team's financial problems cropped up again, and forcing the league to take control of the team for a second time.

On April 27, 1972, Babe McCarthy resigned as the Pros' coach.

Memphis Tams 1972–1974

On June 13, 1972, the team and its debts were purchased by Charles O. Finley, who also owned Major League Baseball's Oakland A's and the NHL's California Golden Seals. Legendary former University of Kentucky head coach Adolph Rupp became team president.Tennessee – Arkansas – Mississippi, and the logo was a tam o'shanter-style hat in white, green and gold, which were also the new team colors, shared with the Athletics and Golden Seals.

1972–1973 season

McCarthy was succeeded by Bob Bass. The Tams landed George Thompson in a dispersal draft of Pittsburgh Condors players. Gerald Govan was traded to the Utah Stars for Merv Jackson. George Thompson played in the ABA All Star game but the Tams finished the season with only 24 wins compared to 60 losses. It was the worst record in the ABA and put them in fifth (last) place in the Eastern Division, 33 games behind the Carolina Cougars. The Tams did not make the playoffs, in part due to heavy roster turnover (they made 28 roster moves in the first two months of the season alone). Despite their poor play they averaged 3,476 fans per home game.


Memphis Sounds

Finley had the team wear all possible combinations of green, white and gold tops and trunks. However, he had little to no involvement with franchise operations. Despite his earlier promises, he was already in negotiations with officials in St. Paul, Minnesota to move the team there. When word got out of this, Finley went from savior to pariah almost overnight. He didn't help his own cause by instituting several cost-cutting moves.

1973–1974 season

The Tams picked up draft picks Larry Kenon and Larry Finch. The Tams also used a draft pick to select underclassman David Thompson but Thompson stayed in college. Finley had asked the ABA to look into his claims that ABA president Bill Daniels had a conflict of interest due to asking Finley to pay him a finder's fee for helping Finley find potential buyers for his team. The ABA declined to investigate Finley's charges.

Finley tried to sell the team to a group of investors from Providence, Rhode Island but no sale was forthcoming. For much of the summer, the Tams' status was up in the air. Bass had resigned to take a position with the league, and the team offices had been closed since mid-June. It was not until late August that Finley sent word that the Tams would play. In the process, he'd held up almost all of the league's radio and TV contracts. Even then, the team had no coach and virtually no front office when training camp opened in September. Finally, two days before the team's first preseason game, Butch van Breda Kolff was hired as general manager and head coach.

The Tams signed Charlie Edge, traded Larry Kenon to the New York Nets for Jim Ard and John Baum and traded Johnny Neumann to the Utah Stars for Glen Combs, Ronnie Robinson, Mike Jackson and cash. George Thompson played in the ABA All Star game but the team had another poor season, finishing with 21 wins and 63 losses—the worst record in all of pro basketball.


Memphis Sounds

With their poor play the team's home attendance dropped by about one third from the prior season as the Tams averaged 2,331 fans per home game. This was largely because Finley seemed to lose whatever interest he had in the Tams. He went weeks without communicating with van Breda Kolff about team business or roster moves. He also stopped putting out programs, replacing them with free typed mimeographed lineup sheets. Van Breda Kolff was visibly frustrated with the situation, telling Basketball News that the Tams would be a solid franchise if they had solid backing.

Memphis Sounds 1974–1975

It soon became apparent that the Tams were not high on the list of Finley's priorities. Amenities like programs began to disappear, and morale suffered as players began to wonder if they would receive paychecks and if those would clear the bank when they did. After two seasons of this, the ABA stepped in and took control of the team. ABA Commissioner Mike Storen resigned his position with the league to take over the operation and run the team in Memphis.

Storen lined up several notable local figures as co-owners of the new team including musician Isaac Hayes and Holiday Inn founder Kemmons Wilson. Storen named the new team the Memphis Sounds and developed a new red and white color scheme and logo.

Storen cleared out the former Tams roster and brought in veteran players such as Mel Daniels, Freddie Lewis, Roger Brown, Chuck Williams, Collis Jones, George Carter, Rick Mount and Julius Keye. The only player who had played for the Tams who appeared in uniform for the Sounds was Larry Finch, a local favorite because he had played college basketball at Memphis State University.

The Sounds, coached by Joe Mullaney, finished the 1974–75 season with a record of 27–57, which was good for fourth place in the Eastern Division and a spot in the 1975 ABA Playoffs. Unfortunately for the Sounds, their first round opponent was the Kentucky Colonels, who had won the Eastern Division and defeated the Sounds 4 games to 1 (the one win being the only playoff-game victory in the franchise's tenure) en route to winning the 1975 ABA Championship.

Aftermath


Memphis Sounds

Aftermath

The team's elimination by the Colonels would be the last meaningful game that the franchise would play. Although the 1974–75 season saw the highest attendance figures during the team's stay in Memphis, both Wilson and Hayes were having financial troubles that required them to sell their shares. After the 1974–75 season the ABA franchise was sold to a group of businessmen in Baltimore, Maryland who used it to create a team that was first briefly known as the Baltimore Hustlers and then the Baltimore Claws. However, the team had serious financial problems and collapsed before the season started, playing only three exhibition games in its brief history.

Not long after the Claws folded, the San Diego Sails and then the Utah Stars folded early in the 1975–76 regular season, abruptly shrinking the league from 10 teams to 7. The failure of those franchises was a factor behind the ABA–NBA merger in the summer after the 1975–76 season ended.

When the ABA became defunct and the copyrights on its properties were allowed to lapse, a new minor league baseball team in Nashville — the Nashville Sounds — adopted the Memphis Sounds' color scheme and logo. As of 2023, the name is still in use. The use of the color scheme and styled logo was replaced as the primary scheme after the 1998 season, but is still used on the field for Throwback Thursday promotions, and merchandise featuring the mark remains in regular availability.

In 2001 professional basketball returned to Memphis with the National Basketball Association (NBA)'s Memphis Grizzlies, who relocated from Vancouver, British Columbia. The Grizzlies played their home games at The Pyramid from 2001 until 2004, before moving to FedExForum for the 2004–05 season, and have called it home since then.

During the 2015 season, the Grizzlies wore Hardwood Classics throwback uniforms honoring the heritage of the Sounds for select games. The Hardwood Classics uniforms debuted on November 16, 2015, during the Grizzlies' home game vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder.

For the former fort which is now a city park in Alexandria, Virginia, see Fort Ward (Virginia).

A view of Fort Ward Park

Fort Ward Park is park located along Rich Passage on the southern end of Bainbridge Island in Washington. Fort Ward Park is part of the Bainbridge Island Metro Park and Recreation District, on land which the former military base, Fort Ward, was located.state park from 1960 to 2011 but is now locally managed.

Covering 137 acres (0.55 km2) of dense forest and underbrush, clam digging, birdwatching and scuba diving are some of the activities available for park visitors.

History

In 1903, Fort Ward was officially commissioned as a seacoast fort with the primary objective of protecting the Bremerton Naval Shipyard. Two gun batteries are located in the park. During World War II, the Navy used the fort as a radio station and training school for communication personnel and installed a submarine net across Rich Passage. In 1958, the Navy decommissioned the fort, and State Parks purchased Fort Ward in 1960. The park still includes two remnant gun batteries.

Facilities

Fort Ward Park has a public boat ramp and a parking lot for about 25 cars and boat trailers. The boat launch is concrete, donated by the Bainbridge Island Rotary Club. There are vault toilets located in the parking area near the boat launch ramp. The park has 4,300 feet of saltwater shoreline.

There are two picnic areas located in the park. The lower picnic area along the beach is accessible only by foot or bicycle and has eight picnic sites. The upper picnic area is accessible by car and also has eight picnic sites. Each picnic area has vault toilets as well as potable water.

Gunther Schepens

Gunther Schepens (born 4 May 1973) is a retired Belgian footballer. At this moment, he is the technical coördinator of the youth teams of the football team K.A.A. Gent. He is also co-responsible for the scouting of new players.

Career

Schepens began his career 1981 in the youth of the local team Eendracht Massemen. 1985 the Young central player was transferred to K.A.A. Gent, where he had to wait until 1991 before he could make his debut in the first team. In his second year in the team of the "Buffalos" he started to play regularly. A year later he was transferred during winter to Standard Liège.

In 1994–95, he almost became champion with Standard Liège. The team ended on the second spot, behind RSC Anderlecht.

Devonport Guildhall

Devonport Guildhall is a municipal building that served as a municipal hall, courthouse, mortuary, and police station, located in the municipal centre of the town of Devonport, in Plymouth, Devon, England. The site fell into disrepair and since the mid-1980s has been repurposed for community facilities.Grade I listed building.

History

The building of the guildhall

John Foulston's Town Hall, Column and Library in Devonport, c. 1825.

The guildhall, which was designed by John Foulston in the Regency style with Greek Doric features, was completed between 1821 and 1824.Column and Oddfellow's Hall still stand today whilst his Mount Zion Calvinist Chapel is now lost.Royal Navy brought prosperity to the area. A petition was taken to King George IV, who granted permission for the area to be called Devonport in 1824.

Devonport Guildhall was home to the magistrates court and the Mayor's Parlour and also was used for social events (the courtroom had removable fixtures to hold events and balls in the evening). There were cells and a mortuary, and a police station at the rear of the building.county borough of Devonport established under the Local Government Act 1888.

Decline and refurbishment

The building fell into disrepair when the Three Towns of Plymouth, Devonport and Stonehouse amalgamated in 1914Second World War. After it fell into neglect, Guildhall restorations were attempted – notably in 1986 when it reopened as a Citizen's Advice Bureau, Library, a playgroup, cafe and sports hall – but failed to survive due to the sheer size of the building. In 2009, Real Ideas Organisation was awarded a £1.75 million Community Assets Grant, with which they embarked on the careful and painstaking restoration of Devonport Guildhall to its former glory. Working closely with Plymouth City Council and the former Devonport Regeneration Community Partnership, RIO renovated Devonport Guildhall with the local community in mind.

History

Although Casa Colorado may have been a seventeenth-century landmark, it did not begin its existence as a community until early in the nineteenth century.

On May 19, 1760, after coming to Sevilleta, Bishop Tamarón passed the ruins of “the house they called Colorada,” and from that point on they began to see pens of ewes, corrals, and small houses (Adams 1953:201). Casa Colorada is also mentioned in the Kendall Journal.

The modern settlement for the town of Casa Colorada was born of a petition for a community grant in 1823. The grant may not have been confirmed at that time but the town continued in existence (Bowden 1969:II, 205). Testimony in the adjudication of the grant before the Surveyor General confirmed that the town was built in 1822 or 1823 in the place already known by the name Casa Colorado (Town of Casa Colorado Grant:12). It was included in lists of New Mexico towns in 1833 and 1840 (Bloom 1913:14; Carroll and Haggard 1942:93).

Wislizenus only referred to the nearby sand hills and the location of “Casas Coloradas,” six miles south of Tomé, when he camped there on 22 July 1846 (Wislizenus 1848:35). Later in the same year Abert commented on some large ponds north of town which were filled with water birds. His party had reached the Río Grande near there after descending from Abó Pass (Abert 1962:117-118).


Casa Colorada, New Mexico

In 1855, W.W.H. Davis observed that at Casa Colorada his party “struck a young desert, an excellent pocket edition of the great African Zahara, over which we journeyed for about four miles.” Through the area north of “La Hoya” the sand made travel difficult and the land barren with the exception of “occasional small patches in some of the valleys close to the river” (Davis 1938:200).

In the 1920s the local Post Office was given the name “Turn” because there was a turn in the road at Casa Colorado and that name has since appeared on many maps but the original name is still in general use (Julyan 1996:67).

Education

Family background

He is one of the eight children of Christiaan Eijkman, the headmaster of a local school, and Johanna Alida Pool. His brother Christiaan Eijkman (1858–1930) was a physician and professor of physiology whose demonstration that beriberi is caused by poor diet led to the discovery of vitamins. Together with Sir Frederick Hopkins, his brother received the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine.

Gunther Köhler

Gunther Köhler (born 20 May 1965 in Hanau) is a German herpetologist. His research is primarily focused in Central America and in the West Indies.

Career

In 1995, Köhler received a doctorate in natural sciences at the Goethe University Frankfurt with his thesis on the systematics and ecology of black iguanas (genus Ctenosaura). Since November 1995, he is curator at the department of herpetology and since 2004 acting director of the department of terrestrial zoology at the Senckenberg Research Institute.

The projects of Köhler and his research group focus on the study of neotropical herpetofauna in Central and South America, in particular in Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, Nicaragua and Bolivia. The studies are taxonomic, zoogeographical and phylogenetic, with the genus Anolis forming one of the main groups.

In 1994, he rediscovered Ctenosaura bakeri (the Utila iguana), a species previously known only from the type specimens described in 1901. Since April 1998, Köhler led a breeding program in collaboration with the Frankfurt Zoological Society in Utila.

In 2016, he revised the Anolis species of Hispaniola in collaboration with Stephen Blair Hedges. Among them are eight newly discovered species that are restricted to small distribution areas and threatened with extinction.

Köhler was involved in the original descriptions of more than 120 species of reptiles and amphibians in many genera, including Agama, Anolis, Brookesia, Ctenosaura, Paracontias, Stenocercus, Leptopelis and Pristimantis.

In his spare time, Köhler is a member of the country music band Flaggstaff from Aschaffenburg.

In 1992, Köhler's wife Elke founded the Herpeton Verlag, a special interest publishing house in Offenbach with the aim of providing reptile owners with particularly well-founded knowledge about their wards.

Josefina Álvares de Azevedo

Josefina Álvares de Azevedo

Josefina Álvares de Azevedo

According to Augusto Blake's Dicionário Bibliográfico Brasileiro, Josefina was born in Itaboraí and was a half-sister of the writer Álvares de Azevedo. She, however, said she was Azevedo's cousin and to have born in Recife, where she lived until she was twenty-six years old. In 1877, she moved to São Paulo, where she founded in 1888 the newspaper A Família. The following year she moved to Rio de Janeiro, and kept publishing until 1897, when she had to interrupt it, resuming the newspaper in 1898.

Azevedo defended the education of women as an essential tool for their emancipation. She sought to extend the circulation of his newspaper throughout the country, traveling to the North and Northeast regions of Brazil. She promoted the feminine suffrage in the 1890 article O Direito ao Voto (The Right to Vote), a year after the proclamation of the Brazilian Republic. She wrote in the same year the comedy O Voto Feminino, (Women's Vote), staged in the Teatro Recreio Dramático.

Still in 1890, she gathered a series of texts that she had published in the newspaper, including poetry, and edited them in the compilation Retalhos.

A Família

In 1877, Azevedo publishes the newspaper A Família (The Family). The journal's main purpose was to address women's education, but with the political transition experienced by Brazil, it shifted to assert women's rights and to have their voices represented on political issues and to vote, for example.Federal University of Pernambuco), this change took place with the intention of a greater acceptance of the newspaper due to its proximity to the Court.

The newspaper ran uninterruptedly until the year 1897, always wanting to give voice to women in matters such as education and politics. After a year, in 1898, it returns to circulate, which can be concluded by the thank-you note of the magazine A Mensageira


Josefina Álvares de Azevedo

In A Família's first edition, Josefina says that the press can serve as a valve that can awaken an individual's conscience. Thus, through the newspaper, it was intended to show that there was no reason for the differentiation that existed at the time between men and women, with women considered inferior when compared to men.

In that same edition, it is still possible to see the dissatisfaction, both of Josefina and other journalists, regarding the division that existed at the time. According to her, the two principles that existed were strength and order, where she delegates the first to men and the second to women. In this way, the female sex should also be responsible for the coordination of society, since they, unlike men, were able to coordinate the homes.

With the proclamation of the Brazilian Republic in November 1889, the discourse on women's right to vote became even stronger, since greater equality was expected in this new political model.

O voto feminino

In 1890, Josefina Alvares de Azevedo wrote the play O voto feminino, which, before being staged, was advertised in some issues of A Família. The comedy's intention, as well as that of the newspaper, was to give voice to women in the Brazilian political scene, especially in the issue of the right to vote. The play was shown at the Teatro Recreio Dramático, at the time, one of the most popular in Rio de Janeiro.

The play took place at the home of a couple who received their son and son-in-law for dinner. Besides them, there is another couple (the maid and her husband) and a single man. They await the "result of a consultation submitted to a certain Minister regarding the enactment of the law of the female vote."

Despite being praised by the press before it even debuted, the play was staged only once. After that, it was published two other times: in the footers of the newspaper A Família and also in book form.

Johann Fischer (composer)

For those of a similar name, see Johann Fischer (disambiguation).

Johann Fischer (1646–1716) was a German violinist, keyboardist and composer of the baroque era. His name is not to be confused with another composer named Johann Fischer, born in Lübeck and listed by Johannes Moller in Cimbria literata (v. I, p. 176). He is mentioned as a good clavier and violin player, who is said to have especially loved the return of the strings and, in this way, he mainly composed for the violin and also the viola, which he sought to write for in his overtures. In any case, his works are of historical interest since they are likely to betray the influence of the then French instrumental music.

Biography

Johann Fischer was born in Augsburg, in Swabia, as the son of town piper Jonas Fischer and Maria, née Mayr.cantor Tobias Kriegsdorfer (1608-1686).Württemberg court in Stuttgart by Kapellmeister Samuel Capricornus.Paris where he was a scribe for Jean-Baptiste Lully, the Kapellmeister of Louis XIV.

In 1673 he was back in the Stuttgart court orchestra, and a year later he became a church musician at the Barfüßerkirche in Augsburg, where he was employed until 1677. During his time, about 60 pieces of church music were composed.Ansbach who was very much fond of French music.Margrave Johann Friedrich, Fischer was released from his duties that same year. His successor, Margrave George Friedrich was then fond of a more Italian direction.


Johann Fischer (composer)

From 1690 to 1697 he held a similar position in Jelgava (Jelgava today in Latvia), in the court of the Duke of Courland Frederick Casimir Kettler, and after the dissolution of the chapel, he lived for a time in Riga.Lüneburg, and in 1701 he played in Poland vor Ihro Maj. dem Könige von Polen zu dero hoher Zufriedenheit.Kapellmeister in the chapel of Karl Leopold, Duke of Mecklenburg-Schwerin.Copenhagen where he had hoped for a job in the royal court orchestra.Bayreuth in 1707, after which he lived in Stralsund, Stockholm, and Szczecin. In his last years he was Kapellmeister to Philip William, Margrave of Brandenburg-Schwedt, but of a rather flighty disposition, he soon gave this post up and moved around between Copenhagen, Stralsund and Stockholm. Finally, he became Kapellmeister to the Margrave of Schwedt, where he died at the age of seventy years.

Musical works

Fischer's compositions are similar to those by Johann Sigismund Kusser, as his traditional chamber music suggests. He wrote various collections of songs, the most important being a collection of fifty French songs and another collection of madrigals and Lieder. His melodies are original and his harmonies and rhythms varied. In his work, scordatura is often required for the viola. He also wrote instrumental works. Johann Mattheson writes that Fischer's music was highly praised and frequently played, although his extensive work on church music, consisting of numerous cantatas and motets, is still little explored. His works are listed by Ernst Ludwig Gerber in his Lexikon der Tonkünstler (v. II, p. 133).

Melville Koppies

The Melville Koppies Cave. The plaque indicates that it is a Johannesburg Heritage site. The plaque states: "The cave is a fissure formed between 2.9 billion-year-old quartzite rocks of what is now the Melville Koppies Ridge. For hundreds of years the cave provided a shelter for people living around and moving across the area. The site was excavated in 1971. An analysis of the archaeological remains found in the cave suggests that, as early as 1500 A.D., farming communities made use of the resources the area had to offer. When supplies dwindled they supplemented their diet with wild plants and hunted wild animals."

Melville Koppies is a nature reserve and a Johannesburg City Heritage Site in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Iron Age artefacts can still be found at the site.Johannesburg Botanical Garden.

History

In 1963 Revil Mason, excavating at the Koppies, found an Iron Age furnace for smelting iron ore, either in a bowl or sunken furnace with carbon dating of charcoal found at varies levels at the site shows it would have been in use at various times between 1060AD and 1580AD.

Geliy Korzhev

Self-portrait (1980)

Geliy Mikhailovich Korzhev-Chuvelyov (Russian: Гелий Михайлович Коржев-Чувелёв; 7 July 1925 – 27 August 2012) was a Soviet and Russian painter.

Life

He studied at Moscow State Art School from 1939 to 1944 under Vasily Pochitalov, Mikhail Dobroserdov, and Mikhail Barshch. From 1944 to 1950 he studied at the Moscow State Art Institute under Sergey Gerasimov and Vasily Pochitalov. A painter in Soviet approved style of socialist realism, he continued to be active after the dissolution of the Soviet Union and remained a supporter of Communism.

Politics

Unwavering in his political views, in the late 1990s the artist refused a state award bestowed upon him by the government of the Russian Federation, and Korzhev wrote of his motives:

I was born in the Soviet Union and sincerely believed in the ideas and ideals of the time. Today, they are considered a historical mistake. Now Russia has a social system directly opposite to the one under which I, as an artist, was brought up. The acceptance of a state award would be equal to a confession of my hypocrisy throughout my artistic career. I request that you consider my refusal with due understanding.

Death

He died on August 27, 2012. He was buried at Alekseyevskoye Cemetery in Moscow. The monument on the grave was made by grandson Ivan under the sketches of the artist himself.

Jaladheeswara Temple

It is one of the more ancient temples, believed to exist before 2nd century A.D. The fact that Siva and Parvathi are placed on a single "peetam" (panavattamu) makes the temple different from many other ancient temples like Srisailam and Srikalahasti.

According to D. Kannababu, assistant superintendent, Archaeology Survey of India, "Jaladheeswara Temple was the fourth ancient temple in Andhra Pradesh. From the evidenced existing today, this temple existed before 2nd century A.D. This siva Lingam has similar features with some of the ancient temples like Gudimallam (Chittoor district near Sri Kalahasti), Amaravati, Draksharamam."

Salient features of the temple:

  * It is the only temple in the world to have lords Siva and Parvati on a single peetam.
  * According to the temple history, the peetam was placed by Sage Agastya.
  * Nandeeshwara is more beautiful and realistic in this temple.
  * According to Skanda Purana, this temple darshana has the same pious (punya phala) effect equivalent to Darshanam of Dwadasha Jyotirlingas (12) and Ashtadasa Shakti Peetams (18) due to the placement of Siva and Parvati on a single peetam.
  * The devotees believe that Jaladeeshwara abhisheka theertham is a cure for many diseases.
