Liu Xia (badminton)

In this Chinese name, the family name is Liu.

Liu Xia (Chinese: 刘霞; pinyin: Liú Xiá; Mandarin pronunciation: lʲə́u ɕáː) is a former badminton player from China.

Liu is one of the players from China who played in the era of split between World Badminton Federation (WBF) and International Badminton Federation (IBF). The Chinese badminton team was the member of WBF due to dispute, she therefore wasn't able to participate in many of the big tournaments which were handled and sanctioned only by the IBF, but still excelled in various continental championships which included Asian Games, Asian Championships and Asian Invitational Championships. She was the gold medalist in the World Championship which rival organisation WBF conducted in 1979.

Career & Early life

In 1970, when Liu Xia was a 15 years of age, she was studying at Chengdu No. 2 Middle School in Shanghai. Being a 15-year-old, it was the first time she was exposed to badminton and thereafter joined the Shanghai team. Just after an year, she got selected to the national badminton training team. Because of her extreme talent in the sport, which included broader skills, coordination of movements, flexible pace, etc. she immediately became the main force of the Chinese women's team. In 1975, Liu travelled to Japan with the Chinese youth team and became the press attention after defeating strongest of Japanese players at that time. After winning several Asian championships, Liu ushered in the pinnacle of her career: in the first World Games badminton competition held in the United States in July 1981, she teamed up with Zhang Ailing to win the women's doubles championship.

After retirement, Liu Xia returned to her hometown Shanghai and then went to Thailand as a coach in 1990. She also has her own business in Shanghai. On the one hand, she is in charge of the development department of the East Asian Sports and Cultural Center, and also opened an indoor badminton hall next to the Shanghai Stadium, which holds the "Liu Xia Cup" amateur badminton competition on annual basis.

Limburg-Staffel–Siershahn railway

The Limburg-Staffel–Siershahn railway is a railway line between Limburg-Staffel, Montabaur and Siershahn in the Westerwald. The line, which is also known as the Unterwesterwaldbahn (Lower Westerwald Railway), runs through the German states of Rhineland-Palatinate and Hesse.

History

The Rhenish Railway Company (Rheinische Eisenbahn-Gesellschaft, RhE) planned the line and also received the concession to build it. It was opened to Staffel on 30 May 1884, by which time the Prussian state railways had taken over operations of the RhE. The Prussian government took control of the RhE on 1 January 1886.

The Lower Westerwald Railway connected to the Hadamar–Limburg line in Staffel. The Lower Westerwald Railway connected with the Brexbach Valley Railway (Brexbachtalbahn), which connected to the East Rhine Railway (Rechte Rheinstrecke) in Siershahn.

Operations

Old Montabaur station (2005)

While the Deutsche Bundesbahn ceased passenger services on the Holzbach Valley Railway on 1 June 1984, it continued to operate services on the Lower Westerwald Railway. Since 12 December 2004, services have been operated by Vectus Verkehrsgesellschaft every hour or every two hours using LINT diesel multiple units.

The modern Montabaur station was opened in 2002 to provide interchange with the Cologne-Frankfurt high-speed railway.

Due to an accident at a level crossing near Girod on 30 September 2011, the line was severely damaged over a length of 7 km to Montabaur. During the period required for its repair, a steam-hauled freight train of the Hanau railway museum (Museumseisenbahn Hanau) railway ran over the Taunus to Steinefrenz station to supply the concrete sleepers. After the restoration of the line, services were resumed on 19 October 2011.

Geometric integrator

In the mathematical field of numerical ordinary differential equations, a geometric integrator is a numerical method that preserves geometric properties of the exact flow of a differential equation.

Pendulum example

We can motivate the study of geometric integrators by considering the motion of a pendulum.

Assume that we have a pendulum whose bob has mass [m=1] and whose rod is massless of length [\ell =1]. Take the acceleration due to gravity to be [g=1]. Denote by [q(t)] the angular displacement of the rod from the vertical, and by [p(t)] the pendulum's momentum. The Hamiltonian of the system, the sum of its kinetic and potential energies, is

[H(q,p) = T(p)+U(q) = \frac{1}{2}p^2 - \cos q, ]

which gives Hamilton's equations

[{\displaystyle ({\dot {q}},{\dot {p}})=(\partial H/\partial p,-\partial H/\partial q)=(p,-\sin q).\,}]

It is natural to take the configuration space [Q] of all [q] to be the unit circle [\mathbb S^1], so that [(q,p)] lies on the cylinder [\mathbb S^1\times\mathbb R]. However, we will take [(q,p)\in\mathbb R^2], simply because [(q,p)]-space is then easier to plot. Define [z(t) = (q(t),p(t))^{\mathrm T}] and [f(z) = (p,-\sin q)^{\mathrm T}]. Let us experiment by using some simple numerical methods to integrate this system. As usual, we select a constant step size, [h], and for an arbitrary non-negative integer [k] we write [z_k:=z(kh)]. We use the following methods.


Geometric integrator

[ z_{k+1} = z_k + hf(z_k) \, ] (explicit Euler), [ z_{k+1} = z_k + hf(z_{k+1}) \, ] (implicit Euler), [ z_{k+1} = z_k + hf(q_k,p_{k+1}) \, ] (symplectic Euler), [ z_{k+1} = z_k + hf((z_{k+1}+z_k)/2) \, ] (implicit midpoint rule).

(Note that the symplectic Euler method treats q by the explicit and [p] by the implicit Euler method.)

The observation that [H] is constant along the solution curves of the Hamilton's equations allows us to describe the exact trajectories of the system: they are the level curves of [p^2/2 - \cos q]. We plot, in [\mathbb {R} ^{2}], the exact trajectories and the numerical solutions of the system. For the explicit and implicit Euler methods we take [h=0.2], and z0 = (0.5, 0) and (1.5, 0) respectively; for the other two methods we take [h=0.3], and z0 = (0, 0.7), (0, 1.4) and (0, 2.1).

Simple pendulum: trajectories

The explicit (resp. implicit) Euler method spirals out from (resp. in to) the origin. The other two methods show the correct qualitative behaviour, with the implicit midpoint rule agreeing with the exact solution to a greater degree than the symplectic Euler method.

Recall that the exact flow [\phi _{t}] of a Hamiltonian system with one degree of freedom is area-preserving, in the sense that

[\det\frac{\partial\phi_t}{\partial (q_0,p_0)} = 1] for all [t].


Geometric integrator

This formula is easily verified by hand. For our pendulum example we see that the numerical flow [\Phi_{{\mathrm{eE}},h}:z_k\mapsto z_{k+1}] of the explicit Euler method is not area-preserving; viz.,

[{\displaystyle \det {\frac {\partial }{\partial (q_{0},p_{0})}}\Phi _{{\mathrm {eE} },h}(z_{0})={\begin{vmatrix}1&h\\-h\cos q_{0}&1\end{vmatrix}}=1+h^{2}\cos q_{0}.}]

A similar calculation can be carried out for the implicit Euler method, where the determinant is

[\det\frac{\partial}{\partial (q_0,p_0)}\Phi_{{\mathrm{iE}},h}(z_0) = (1+h^2\cos q_1)^{-1}.]

However, the symplectic Euler method is area-preserving:

[ \begin{pmatrix}1&-h\\0&1\end{pmatrix}\frac{\partial}{\partial (q_0,p_0)}\Phi_{{\mathrm{sE}},h}(z_0) = \begin{pmatrix}1&0\\-h\cos q_0&1\end{pmatrix},]

thus [\det(\partial\Phi_{{\mathrm{sE}},h}/\partial (q_0,p_0)) = 1]. The implicit midpoint rule has similar geometric properties.


Geometric integrator

To summarize: the pendulum example shows that, besides the explicit and implicit Euler methods not being good choices of method to solve the problem, the symplectic Euler method and implicit midpoint rule agree well with the exact flow of the system, with the midpoint rule agreeing more closely. Furthermore, these latter two methods are area-preserving, just as the exact flow is; they are two examples of geometric (in fact, symplectic) integrators.

Moving frame method

The moving frame method can be used to construct numerical methods which preserve Lie symmetries of the ODE. Existing methods such as Runge-Kutta can be modified using moving frame method to produce invariant versions.

Eisenkammer Pirna

Market square in Pirna with St. Mary's Church, the Canaletto House and (r) House No. 10, 1472-1686 seat of the Eisenkammer

Haus am Markt 10 in Pirna, today the community hall

The Eisenkammer Pirna ("Iron Chamber") was an Electoral Saxon institution with the task of distributing and allocating the iron products within its area of responsibility (Revier), the Pirna Iron Mining District (Pirnaer Eisenrevier). It was founded in 1472 and existed until 1686. It had its seat in the house Am Markt 10, the present town community hall, in the Old Town (Altstadt) of Pirna.

Other Eisenkammern existed as authorities regulating the iron trade for instance in the former Austria iron centres of Steyr and Scheibbs.

History

Iron ore was mined in the Eastern Ore Mountains probably already in the 13th century and has been confirmed for the town of Berggießhübel in an accounting dated 1450. Berggießhübel, being the centre of iron mining in the Pirna district, was the seat of a local mining authority, whose regulations of 1546 applied to the whole of the Pirna mining district. Patrons of the mines were the Electors of Saxony and the noble families von Bünau of Liebstadt and von Bernstein of Ottendorf. The products made from the local iron ore were known as Pirnisches Eisen ("Pirna iron") and were in high demand for two main reasons:


Eisenkammer Pirna

* Pirna iron was highly esteemed for having been made from magnetite, the iron ore of the highest grade. The historian Petrus Albinus notes (place names with historical spelling):
″The third and most excellent iron is made in Lawenstein and Berggieshübel and Glasshütten / all three are situated not far from the cities Dreßden and Pirna. Hence many call the iron / that is made there Pirnisch / and praise it to be more malleable than the Lusatian one / which otherwise is still widely traded.″
  * The Electorate of Saxony was generally short of iron, which was mainly needed for armaments and for the extraction of silver, tin, and copper from the mines. The preamble of the 1546 mining regulations of Berggießhübel states that
″in our silver and other mines, also otherwise in our lands and principality a notable want of iron is felt.″

Hence, the rulers of the country established a monopoly on the iron trade already in 1472, and on this occasion also the Eisenkammer Pirna in order to ensure the supply of iron for the mines and arsenals. Accordingly, all iron products from the Pirna mining district (around 300 tonnes per year in the 16th century) had to be delivered to the Eisenkammer for a fixed price, and the latter sold them to the Dresden arsenal, the mines, towns, and guilds. For example, the saltworks of Poserna were built in 1572 using Pirna iron almost exclusively.

The purpose of the monopoly was not profit, but the assurance of a sufficient supply of iron. Hence the iron trade turned out to operate with a loss, and in 1583 the Council of Pirna was ordered to take over the tasks of the Eisenkammer. Already 20 Saxon town were obligated to purchase their iron exclusively from Eisenkammer Pirna, and Prince-Elector Augustus now confirmed his order that all iron in the Electorate had to be procured from there. This, however, proved difficult to enforce.

The historian Uwe Schirmer summarizes: "The purpose of the public economic activity in the small Pirna iron mining district thus conformed principally to the demand of the mines and salt works as well as to the politically-military and early mercantilist interests of the rulers of the country."

Nepeña District

Nepeña District is one of nine districts of the Santa Province in Peru.

History

On April 12, 1873 was enacted Supreme Resolution which raises the Nepeña Municipal Agency to the category of Nepeña District. On November 22, 1874 the first municipal council is installed, investing as Mayor to Mr. Juan Rodríguez; as Deputy Mayor, Mr. Esteban Naveda; as councilor, Mr. Manuel Márquez Paredes; as auditors, Messrs Teodorico Terry and José María Cabrera. However, it is known that in the political system of the Geographical Society of Lima, Nepeña appears as district, founded by the Protector of Peru José de San Martín, on February 12, 1821.

Marasmius cohaerens

Marasmius cohaerens is a species of gilled mushroom which is fairly common in European woods.

Description

This section uses the given references throughout.

The matt or slightly felted cap grows from about 1 cm to 3.5 cm, and can be pale brown, yellow brown or chocolate brown, sometimes also with a pink tinge. The shape develops with age from campanulate to flat.

There is no ring or other veil remnant. The stem is about 5 to 9 cm long and up to 0.5 cm in diameter and varies from dark brown at the base to whitish at the top with some ochraceous to reddish colour in the middle. It has a distinctive shiny and horny consistency.

The adnate to almost free gills are quite distant and have a cream to brownish colour with a darker brown edge and there are tiny hairs on the edge which can be seen with a hand-lens. The taste is mild and there is little smell.

The spores are ellipsoid to almond-shaped and are around 8-10.5 µm by 4–5.5 µm. There are cheilocystidia which take a broadly club-shaped form with finger-like protrusions at the far end; such cells are known as "broom cells of the siccus type" (see Marasmius siccus).

Distribution, habitat, ecology and human impact

This saprobic mushroom grows singly or in small groups on humus and litter in beech forests or with other deciduous trees and (only occasionally) in coniferous forests.

It is widely distributed and fairly common in Europe, and in eastern Asia. It also occurs though rarely in North America, and there other varieties have been identified (the European one being M. cohaerens var. cohaerens).

Naming

This species was originally described by the mycologist Christiaan Hendrik Persoon in 1801 as Agaricus cohaerens.Mordecai Cubitt Cooke and Lucien Quélet assigned the current name which has remained the same for over 100 years.

The Latin epithet cohaerens has the same origin as the English word "coherent" and means "keeping together" (i.e. it is difficult to pull the mushroom apart).

El gato al agua

El gato al agua (in English: To win the day) (literal translation: to take the cat into the water) is a Spanish television and radio programme produced by Intereconomía Corporación and broadcast on Radio Intereconomía, Radio Intercontinental and Intereconomía TV.

Format

El gato al agua focuses on current and past political affairs in Spain, overstating hot topics involving left-side politicians in order to criticize them. There are usually four or five guests, usually from the most conservative scene, but also former Socialist politicians like Joaquin Leguina (former Socialist President of the Community of Madrid), Cristina Alberdi (former Minister of the Socialist Government of Felipe Gonzalez), Antonio Miguel Carmona (MP of the Socialist Party) or Xavier Nart, lawyer and self-declared as left-wing politically oriented, chaired by Antonio Jiménez. During the programme, viewers and listeners can vote via SMS for a guest, who eventually receives a cheap Cat statuette (named in the title), when the program finishes. They can also answer via SMS a closed question with two options (yes or no) relating to the current events talked about at the start of the programme. Apart from the debate, there are purely humoristic, unreliable opinion polls on the street and a summary of the news making the front pages of the following day.


Gilda Cruz-Romo

Gilda Cruz-Romo (née Gilda Cruz, born February 12, 1940) is a Mexican operatic soprano, particularly associated with dramatic roles of the Italian repertory, notably Aida and Tosca.

Born in Guadalajara, Jalisco, she studied at the Mexico City Conservatory with Angel Esquivel. She made her debut in Mexico City, as Ortlinde in Die Walküre, in 1962.

Her international career took off with her debut at the New York City Opera in 1969, as Margherita in Mefistofele, opposite Norman Treigle. The following year, on December 18, 1970, she made her debut at the Metropolitan Opera in New York, as Cio-Cio-San in Madama Butterfly, and remained at the Met until 1984. Her roles there included; Nedda, Violetta, Manon Lescaut, Suor Angelica, Tosca, Aida, Elisabeth de Valois, Desdemona, Amelia, both Verdi's Leonoras, from Il trovatore and La forza del destino. She also appeared at the opera houses of Chicago, Houston, Dallas, San Francisco, New Orleans, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, etc.

She also appeared in Europe, making her debut at the Royal Opera House in London in 1972, and La Scala in Milan in 1973, both as Aida. She scored a triumph as Luisa Miller in 1974, in a live performance with the RAI Torino, opposite Luciano Pavarotti, and conducted by Peter Maag. She sang at the Verona Arena, the Rome Opera, La Fenice in Venice, the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino in Florence, etc.

In 1973, she also made her debut at the Vienna State Opera, as Cio-Cio san, also singing in La forza del destino, Luisa Miller,Tosca, and Aida. She also appeared at the Bolshoi in Moscow, the Liceo in Barcelona, the Teatro Nacional Sao Carlos in Lisbon, and the Palais Garnier in Paris. Her Desdemona was seen in a "Live from the Met" telecast of Otello in 1979, with Plácido Domingo in the title role.


Gilda Cruz-Romo

During the 1988-89 season, she added the role of Cherubini's Medea to her repertory, and sang the role of Matilde in the American premiere of Mascagni's Silvano, at the New Jersey Opera.

Cruz-Romo has been very active in concert and recital as well. She did not make any commercial recordings but can be heard in a few live-performance recordings of her best roles.

LIFT International

LIFT International, formerly known as Nvader, is a faith-based, non-governmental organisation (NGO), whose mission is "combatting sex trafficking."brothels in Southeast Asia to rescue victims of sex trafficking. Victims are identified, removed from the premises, and placed into aftercare facilities. Nvader investigators collect evidence to be used in prosecuting those guilty of trafficking and trafficking-related offences.

Background

Nvader was founded in 2009 by Daniel Walker (a pseudonym),

During those same years, while working for American organisations, he conducted undercover investigations inside 13 countries in total. He would pose as a potential client, or a sex tour operator, in order to find victims of sex trafficking. He would use cameras to record transactions and speak to victims to gather evidence that could be used to prosecute those guilty of trafficking and trafficking-related offences.

Walker noted that during this work best practices were often not applied.

In 2018, Nvader changed its name to LIFT International.

Work

Nvader rescued women and children from sex work in Laos and Thailand, with victims coming from other places such as Myanmar and Vietnam.United States Department of State Trafficking in Persons Report notes that "sex trafficking remains a significant problem in Thailand's extensive sex trade".United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime 2014 Global Report on Trafficking in Persons reports that between 2010 and 2012, 26% of human trafficking victims in East Asia, South Asia and the Pacific were subjected to sexual exploitation.

Nvader's strategy included partnering with law enforcement agencies, building relationships with other NGOs, working with UN agencies and government departments.

Successes

In 2014 New Zealand publication Stuff reported Nvader as having as successfully removing 40 women and children from sex trafficking in Southeast Asia and helping to prosecute 14 sex traffickers during 2013. By February 2014 Nvader had rescued 22 more women and children. Nvader's noted goal is to rescue 200,000 sex trafficking victims by 2024.

"El harba wine" is a single from Khaled's album Kenza. "El Harba Wine" loosely translates to "Run away, but where to?". Khaled explains the title as "You want to leave your country? Where do you want to go?".Amar, and Mohamed Benhamadouche, and for the music Khaled and Idir.

Versions and release history

"El Harba Wine" is an Arabic cover version of "Zwit Rwit", an Amazigh song sung by Idir. The original Arabic cover version was recorded by Khaled in 1987 and released in 1988.Algeria's civil unrest of October 1988.

A live version of the song was included in Khaled's live album Hafla. A rare flamenco inspired version of the song was included in Sahra's promotional CD. Khaled's 1999 album Kenza included a remake of "El Harba Wine" featuring Indian fused beats and Hindi verses sung by Amar. Billboard described this version as a "mesmerizing merging" of Khaled and Amar's singing, "equal parts world music and tribal house".

Eisenstein ideal

In mathematics, the Eisenstein ideal is an ideal in the endomorphism ring of the Jacobian variety of a modular curve, consisting roughly of elements of the Hecke algebra of Hecke operators that annihilate the Eisenstein series. It was introduced by Barry Mazur (1977), in studying the rational points of modular curves. An Eisenstein prime is a prime in the support of the Eisenstein ideal (this has nothing to do with primes in the Eisenstein integers).

Definition

Let N be a rational prime, and define

J0(N) = J

as the Jacobian variety of the modular curve

X0(N) = X.

There are endomorphisms Tl of J for each prime number l not dividing N. These come from the Hecke operator, considered first as an algebraic correspondence on X, and from there as acting on divisor classes, which gives the action on J. There is also a Fricke involution w (and Atkin–Lehner involutions if N is composite). The Eisenstein ideal, in the (unital) subring of End(J) generated as a ring by the Tl, is generated as an ideal by the elements

Tl − l - 1

for all l not dividing N, and by

w + 1.

Geometric definition

Suppose that T* is the ring generated by the Hecke operators acting on all modular forms for Γ0(N) (not just the cusp forms). The ring T of Hecke operators on the cusp forms is a quotient of T*, so Spec(T) can be viewed as a subscheme of Spec(T*). Similarly Spec(T*) contains a line (called the Eisenstein line) isomorphic to Spec(Z) coming from the action of Hecke operators on the Eisenstein series. The Eisenstein ideal is the ideal defining the intersection of the Eisenstein line with Spec(T) in Spec(T*).

Example


Eisenstein ideal

Example

  * The Eisenstein ideal can also be defined for higher weight modular forms. Suppose that T is the full Hecke algebra generated by Hecke operators Tn acting on the 2-dimensional space of modular forms of level 1 and weight 12.This space is 2 dimensional, spanned by the Eigenforms given by the Eisenstein series E12 and the modular discriminant Δ. The map taking a Hecke operator Tn to its eigenvalues (σ11(n),τ(n)) gives a homomorphism from T into the ring Z×Z (where τ is the Ramanujan tau function and σ11(n) is the sum of the 11th powers of the divisors of n). The image is the set of pairs (c,d) with c and d congruent mod 691 because of Ramanujan's congruence σ11(n) ≡ τ(n) mod 691. The Hecke algebra of Hecke operators acting on the cusp form Δ is just isomorphic to Z. If we identify it with Z then the Eisenstein ideal is (691).

Variants

The original Dominant had a windscreen (and matching rear windows) of the same height as the side windows. After 1976 it received a new design of grille and was known as the Dominant I. It remained in production throughout the Dominant's production life as a cheaper alternative to the Dominant II and because the deeper windscreens of the later Dominant marks were incompatible with some front-engined chassis. Some Dominant I bodies had Dominant II style rear windows, and/or headlights and front grilles. Special narrow bodies built for use on the Channel Islands retained the pre-1976 style grille until the end of production.

The Dominant II (introduced in 1976) had a deeper windscreen, rectangular headlights, a different grille and a smaller, flat, single piece rear window.


Duple Dominant

The Dominant III was designed to satisfy a Scottish Bus Group (SBG) requirement for express coaches, and featured shallow, parallelogram-shaped flat double-glazed side windows similar to those on SBG's previous Alexander M-type coaches. Most Dominant IIIs featured a small Dominant I style windscreen mounted in the lower Dominant II position so as to allow a destination display to be included without breaking the roof line, but others had full-height Dominant II type windscreens. The small high-level windows were designed for SBG's overnight Scotland to London services where quietness was more important than passenger views, but nevertheless some other operators did buy the Dominant III as a touring coach. After being retired from long-distance services many SBG Dominant IIIs were rebuilt with larger Dominant I/II or Dominant IV windows to make them more suitable for general coaching work, and many were given replacement bodies later in life.

The Dominant IV had slightly shallower side windows than those on the Dominant I and II, and these were available with flat glass as an option. Examples were built with all three varieties of windscreen size/position (Dominant I, Dominant II or hybrid Dominant III style). A few Dominant II/IV hybrids were built with stepped window lines, with larger Dominant I/II windows towards the front and shallower Dominant IV windows towards the rear.

Introduction of the Dominant III/IV also heralded the introduction of a new bespoke rear light cluster fitted at a lower level and integrated into the body shape. This was also used on many Goldliners. A lot of these were replaced with other units in later life, probably because they were prone to damage or because spares became difficult to obtain.

Many Dominant bodies were built to a dual-purpose specification featuring bus-type doors and other modifications to make them suitable for OMO (one-man operation) stage carriage services, and thus eligible for the British government's bus grant which subsidised the cost of new service buses. These were known as the Dominant Express with the appropriate mark number where applicable (e.g. Dominant II Express). Some such bodies were actually furnished as service buses with low-backed bus seats, in which form the model was known as the Dominant E (again with mark number where applicable).


Duple Dominant

The Dominant E was therefore a coach body fitted out as a bus and is not to be confused with the visually dissimilar Dominant Bus which was a purpose-designed bus body built in relatively small numbers from 1974 to 1987. This employed a similar structure to the coach bodies but with flat sides and small windows positioned lower on the body, amongst other differences.

The Goldliner name was first used in 1975/76 for two non-standard one-off bodies based on the Dominant. The first was a high floor body on an early Bedford YMT built as a demonstrator, while the second was an export body with flat, double-glazed windows on a Volvo B58 chassis for Sweden. The name appeared again in 1982 for the Goldliner II, III and IV, which were high-floor versions of the Dominant II, III or IV. All had Dominant II style windscreens, and some coaches not fitted with destination or operator name displays above the windscreen had a stepped roofline behind the cab. As with the Dominant III, many Goldliner IIIs were subsequently rebuilt with larger single-glazed windows or rebodied.

Replacement

In 1983 the new Duple Laser and high-floor Caribbean were launched as replacements for the full-sized Dominant coach variants and the Goldliner respectively. The last handful of full-sized Dominant coaches were built for the 1984 season. Due to the small volume of sales it was not worth engineering the Laser for the smaller front-engined Bedford SB and VAS chassis, so Dominant coaches on these chassis continued to be built until 1985. The Dominant Bus remained in production until 1987 when it was replaced by the Duple 300.

Judita Cofman

Judita Cofman (1936–2001) was a Yugoslav-German mathematician, the first person to earn a doctorate in mathematics at the University of Novi Sad. She was known for her work in finite geometry and for her books aimed at young mathematicians.

Early life and education

Cofman was born on 4 June 1936 to a prominent ethnically German but Hungarian-speaking family (variously spelled Cofman or Zoffmann) in Vršac, then in Yugoslavia and now part of Serbia. Her father was a brewer, but the family brewery (founded in 1859) was closed by the occupying Germans in World War II and then nationalized by the newly-established communist government of Yugoslavia in 1946. Her grandfather was a mathematics teacher, and her uncle was the town mayor.

In 1954, she joined the first cohort of mathematics students in the Faculty of Philosophy in Novi Sad, now part of the University of Novi Sad. She finished her studies there in 1958 and became a high school mathematics teacher in Zrenjanin.Mileva Prvanović and in the same year was responsible for the university's first mathematics publication, of her lecture notes on straightedge and compass constructions. She traveled to Rome in 1961 to work with Lucio Lombardo-Radice then, returning to Novi Sad in 1963, defended her Ph.D., the first mathematical doctorate at Novi Sad.O konačnim nedezargovim ravnima generisanim četvorotemenikom [Finite Non-Desarguesian Planes Generated by Quadrangles].

Career

After completing her doctorate, Cofman did postdoctoral research as a Humboldt Fellow at Goethe University Frankfurt. She became a lecturer at Imperial College London in 1965 and then, after a year visiting the University of Perugia, took a position at the University of Tübingen in Germany.

In the mid-1970s she moved to Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, at a time when her interests began to shift as well, from finite geometry to mathematics education.doctoral advisor of mathematics popularizer Albrecht Beutelspacher, through whom she has many academic descendants.Putney High School in London from 1978 to 1993. It was during this time that she wrote her books for young mathematicians.

Duda (footballer, born 1974)

For another Brazilian footballer, see Duda (footballer, born 1988).

Carlos Eduardo Ventura (born 15 March 1974), known as Duda, is a Brazilian retired footballer who played as a forward or right winger.

He spent most of his career in Portugal, most notably with Boavista, amassing Primeira Liga totals of 119 matches and 19 goals over six seasons.

Club career

Born in São Bernardo do Campo, Duda started playing organized football at Sport Club Corinthians Alagoano and, after just one season, in 1997, moved to Portugal with S.L. Benfica, but failed to feature for the latter club in official matches. After a few months in Japan and a brief stint with Rio Ave F.C. he signed with FC Porto, but was also highly unsuccessful there, finishing the 1999–2000 campaign with F.C. Alverca.

Duda had his most steady and successful period with Boavista FC, being one of the most important attacking players in a side that conquered their sole national league title in 2001 (scoring ten Primeira Liga goals), alongside Elpídio Silva and Martelinho.2003–04, and no league goals whatsoever in his last two years, he returned to Brazil and joined Associação Atlética Internacional (Limeira), switching shortly after to former club Corinthians Alagoano.

After a spell with Associação Atlética Luziânia, Duda moved in January 2008 to Sliema Wanderers F.C. of the Maltese Premier League. This was not his first visit to the country, as he had been to the island while playing at Boavista in a UEFA Champions League second-round qualifier against Hibernians F.C. in August 2003, which ended in a 3–3 draw, with the player himself getting on the scoresheet.

Judith (ballet)

Judith is a solo work created by dancer/choreographer Martha Graham. William Schuman composed the music. Charles Hyman designed the original set, which was replaced almost immediately by one conceived by Isamu Noguchi. He also added jewelry and a headdress.Jean Rosenthal provided the lighting. The piece premiered on January 4, 1950, at the Columbia Auditorium in Louisville, Kentucky.

Concept and theme

The idea for a "dance concerto" was proposed by Louise Kain, a patroness of the arts and a board member of the Louisville Philharmonic Society. She suggested Graham perform with the musicians in the manner of a musical concerto, with the dancer replacing the solo instrument. The plan was met with enthusiasm by all parties.

Taken from the deuterocanonical books of the Bible (Apocrypha), the ballet is a dance dramatization of the story of Judith, the Hebrew widow who saves the city of Bethulia by seducing and beheading the invading Assyrian tyrant Holofernes.

Synopsis and musical structure

In 1949, Graham turned to William Schuman for the score. They had collaborated two years earlier on the highly successful Night Journey.

The music and dance advance in five uninterrupted movements. Graham performed in front of the orchestra, which was partially obscured behind a translucent panel.


Judith (ballet)

* I. Adagio - The piece opens with a dark adagio featuring muted strings punctuated by occasional solo woodwind and harsh brass. The section represents the plight of the Israelites, suffering and dying of thirst as Holofernes lays siege to their city. (Book of Judith 1-7:32, 4:40 minutes)
  * II. Moderato - Judith prepares to enter the enemy camp. Her anxious resolve is reflected in the music, which increases in intensity, culminating with strings and brass in a spirited jazz-inspired interplay. (Book of Judith 8.1-10.10, 3:25 minutes)
  * III. Tranquillo - A peaceful solo oboe passage followed by one for solo violin accompany Judith's prayers for guidance and her patient wait for a chance to confront Holofernes. (2:07 minutes)
  * IV. Presto - The presto movement heightens the action in Holofernes tent, where Judith seduces the drunken general. The scene opens with rumbling timpani and accelerates with pizzicato strings. The beheading, which takes place behind a curtain in the choreography,
  * V. Andante (Coda)- Judith's slow procession homeward carrying Holofernes' head. The music is measured and dignified rather than victorious.(Book of Judith 13:19, 3:04 minutes)

Background notes

Graham created Judith at a pivotal point in her personal life. She had sustained a serious knee injury during the troupe's European tour that forced her to cancel all remaining performances. At the same time her husband and dance partner Erick Hawkins had asked for a divorce.Stuart Hodes wrote the dance manifested "Martha's uncanny way of anticipating the big changes in her life," adding a quote attributed to Pearl Lang, "Martha had to make that dance so she could cut off Erick's head!"

Judith was the first of Graham's biblical heroines and a departure from her myth-derived works. In a letter to Schuman, she wrote, "I do not want to make this in any way inhuman or goddess-like."Legend of Judith (1962) and Judith (1980).


Judith (ballet)

Graham designed a series of costumes for the 1950 solo to convey Judith's transformation and evolving state of mind. "The dresses which constitute the garments for the various parts will be on the stage arranged as part of the scene itself. They will be in color and will be replaced as I see it when she finished with them as though they were to wait to be worn by someone else."

Noguchi's three-legged balsa wood set consisted of stylized weapon-like elements, two crossed pieces resembling spears and an arrow-shaped member, supporting a fourth horizontal component evocative of an open-mouthed viper.

Critical reception

Judith debuted to a sold-out house that included nationally known music critics. Time and Newsweek, as well as the New York and local papers ran feature articles on Graham and Schuman's achievement.Night Journey. The result is a theatre piece in which dance and movement are fused in seamless unity."

Two decades later and in spite of his artistic competition with her, Erick Hawkins praised Judith as "a magnificent work."

Working with Akira Suzuki (chemist), Miyaura helped to develop the Suzuki reaction which is also known as the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction. In the cross-coupling reaction, the coupling partners are an organohalide and a boronic acid with a palladium(0) complex catalyst. This reaction is used to synthesize polyolefins, styrenes, and substituted biphenyls. In this reaction, a carbon-carbon single bond is formed by coupling a halide (R-X) with an organoboron species (R-B) using a palladium catalyst and a base.

Rhodium or palladium-catalyzed conjugate addition reactions of organoboron compounds


Norio Miyaura

In 1997, Miyaura created a new catalytic cycle starting from transmetalation which resulted in an aryl- or 1-alkenylrhodium(I) intermediate for 1,4-addition of aryl- or 1-alkenylboronic acids to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. This reaction turned out to have application in a variety of addition and coupling reactions of organometallic and organo-nonmetallic compounds. In 1998, he discovered the mechanism for a rhodium(I)-catalyzed Grignard-type addition of ArB(OH)2 to aldehydes. Then in 2003, Miyaura found a reaction for the 1,4-addition of palladium-catalyzed ArB(OH)2, [ArBF3]K, ArSi(OMe)3, ArSiF3 and Ar3Bi to enones. From this he found that the reaction produced a stereogenic center on carbon. He then focused on asymmetric syntheses using chiral rhodium or palladium(2+) catalysts. In 1998, Miyaura created a new chiral ligand of bidentate bisphosphoramidite (Me-BIPAM) through the addition of a rhodium(I)-binap catalyst into an enantioselective 1,4-addition of aryl- and 1-alkenylboronic acids to cyclic and acyclic enones.

Borylation reaction of aromatic compounds

The Miyaura-Ishiyama borylation reaction is also known as the Miyaura borylation reaction. In this reaction, a catalytic system converts carbon-halogen bonds or carbon-hydrogen bonds into carbon-boron bonds.2(dppf). The reaction results in borylated products that can be used as coupling partners for the Suzuki reaction.

Awards

In 2007, Miyaura was recognized as a recipient of the Japan Chemical Society Award for his achievements in the field of organic chemistry and for his high international reputation.Akira Suzuki (chemist) won the Nobel Prize in 2010 for the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction (Suzuki reaction). Although Miyaura was not personally recognized for this award, pieces of his work from his time in the A. Suzuki group were.

Margate (song)

"Margate" is a song from the album Job Lot by Chas & Dave. It was released as a single on 11 July 1982 and entered the UK Singles Chart at number 67. The song stayed in the charts for 4 weeks and peaked at number 46 on 24 July 1982.

Composition

As depicted in the accompanying video, the song is about a coach trip to the traditional seaside attractions of Margate in Kent. Unusually, the verse and chorus are in different keys (D major and G major respectively).

The song was used in a series of adverts for Courage Best Bitter, however, unlike other Chas & Dave songs also used for other Courage adverts, the song was written specifically for the advert first. The advertising agency requested that Chas & Dave write a song for their adverts using the tune from the chorus of their song "Massage Parlour", but with lyrics about a trip to Margate. The advert proved popular, and Chas & Dave then wrote the full lyrics for the song, recorded and released it as a single.

B-side

In a contrasting style the B-side Give it Gavotte is an instrumental, based on the Gavotte folk dance style from France.

In other media

The song appears in the 1989 Only Fools & Horses episode "The Jolly Boys' Outing" (about a day trip to Margate) with minor lyric changes from the single version and the voices of David Jason and Nicholas Lyndhurst added. This version was released on Vinyl in 2019 to mark Record Store Day, and the 30th Anniversary of the episode airing.

Krilon

First editions

Krilon is a trilogy of novels by the Swedish author Eyvind Johnson, Grupp Krilon ("Group Krilon", 1941), Krilons resa ("Krilon's journey", 1942), Krilon själv ("Krilon himself", 1943), published in one volume as Krilon in 1948.

Written and published during World War II, the novel is partly a realistic story set in contemporary Stockholm and partly an allegory of the events during the war that criticises nazism and fascism as well as Sweden's neutrality during the war.

Plot summary

The main character is Johannes Krilon, a middle aged real estate broker in Stockholm. He has formed a conversation group with six middle class friends that regularly meet to discuss various topics. Krilon's business is eventually attacked by two real estate rivals and he struggles to keep his group united against the aggression.

Critical reception

The novel was generally praised by the leading contemporary Swedish critics. Anders Österling wrote that it was "the most original achievement in our modern prose literature". In his 1990 Eyvind Johnson biography, Örjan Lindberger hailed it as an outstanding work in Johnson's production.

Frances Davis

For the American dancer and actress, see Frances Taylor Davis.

Frances Reed Elliott Davis (28 April c. 1882 – 11 May 1965), was an American nurse and community activist.

Life

Frances Davis was born on 28 April, about 1882, probably in Shelby, North Carolina to a mixed-race family. Her mother died when she was five years old and her father abandoned her, so she was raised by a guardian. One of the families for whom she worked as a teenager paid for her to attend a teacher training program at Knoxville College. Davis graduated, but she had always wanted to be a nurse, so she enrolled in the nursing program there. She was forced to leave by illness, but she enrolled at the Freedmen’s Hospital Training School for Nurses in Washington, D.C. in early 1910. After graduation, she worked as a private nurse and then enrolled in the Town and Country Nursing Service Course sponsored by the American Red Cross, the first black nurse to take the course. Other graduates of the course were automatically enrolled in the Army Nurse Corps Reserve, but Davis was not because of her race. However, she was enrolled on 2 July 1918, the first black nurse to be allowed to do so. She cared for soldiers in training and victims of the 1918 flu pandemic, but succumbed herself, permanently damaging her heart. After the war she married William Davis; their only child was stillborn. She died from a heart attack in Detroit, Michigan, on 11 May 1965.
