# East Lake, Atlanta
**East Lake** is a neighborhood on the east side of Atlanta, Georgia, situated in DeKalb County. It is the easternmost of the 238 neighborhoods in the City of Atlanta. It is home to East Lake Golf Club, the site of PGA\'s annual Tour Championship. East Lake lies mostly within the 30317 zip code.
## History
One of Atlanta\'s more historic neighborhoods, East Lake is located 4.5 mi from downtown Atlanta. With its 1910 to 1940s bungalows and cottages and its convenience to local eateries, shops, and transit (MARTA), East Lake has enjoyed a rebirth in recent years.
East Lake is on part of a 19th-century plantation owned by Lt. Col. Robert Augustus Alston, whose home, known as Meadow Nook, still stands across from the East Lake Golf Course. This antebellum home was built in 1856 for his South Carolina bride, and was occupied during the American Civil War. It is the second-oldest home in the city of Atlanta and was not burned by Union General William T. Sherman and his troops.
In 1892, the East Lake Land Company was chartered and land was acquired and divided up into lots. A.C. Bruce was president of the East Lake Land Company and was instrumental in getting a street car line built down a right of way (now East Lake Drive), which started running cars every 20 minutes in 1893. This helped to increase the demand for the small cottage lots, many of which were bought by Atlantans, around the lake to escape the city during the summer months. By the recession of 1896 it became a failed development. The large covered pavilion and beach served as an amusement park, during the years up to 1900.
In 1899 Asa Candler, who was then building Coca-Cola into a national icon, started using agents to secretly buy up the land around the lake and surrounding area. The Atlanta Athletic Club (AAC) began looking for land to build a country location in 1902, and was stirred by one of Candler\'s agents to buy 280 acre. In 1904 the Atlanta Athletic Club opened East Lake Golf Club. A street line from Atlanta through Kirkwood, served the location. The Pavilion was removed in 1907 to make way for the first clubhouse. The first clubhouse and golf course were not completed til 1908. Golf was not the primary recreation at that time. Lawn bowling, tennis, boating and wading were all the craze. East Lake was incorporated as a town in 1908.
In 1912, an auto road was constructed from Ponce de Leon Avenue to the gates of East Lake Country Club, making East Lake even more accessible. By 1916, a \$10,000 school building had been erected on Fourth Avenue, making East Lake the perfect suburban neighborhood. According to an *Atlanta Journal-Constitution* article in May, 1916, demand for East Lake homes was \"almost to boom proportions.\" In 1928, East Lake was annexed into the City of Atlanta.
In 1926 Francis Marion Swanson moved to East Lake, and bought the home at 246 Daniel Avenue, across from what is now East Lake Park. Mr. Swanson was the treasurer of the East Lake Land Company, which helped spur development of the East Lake area by providing mortgages and construction loans to home buyers and builders. Mr. Swanson and friends encouraged sports enthusiasts to move to the area, many of whom had ties to Georgia Tech. The property site of the Swanson home also has the last of the remaining \"Lake Cottages\" that date back to the amusement park. This cottage was a guest house for the Swanson family, whose guests included notable Atlantans and Georgia Tech personalities such as football coaches Bill Alexander and Bobby Dodd, and renowned golfer Bobby Jones. Jones would come in for weekends, and drive onto the 9th fairway from Daniel Street to avoid the crowds.
During the early to mid twentieth century, the East Lake community thrived with life centered around the Athletic Club. The community had a swim team, tennis team, and football team as well as many accomplished golfers. Across Alston Drive from the Golf Course sat the Bachmann Farm, which kept the horses used for pulling the mowers at the Golf Course. In the early 1950s the land was donated to the City of Atlanta to be converted into what is now East Lake Park. The original Bachmann farm house was converted into a recreation center.
The AAC moved from Atlanta in 1966, selling both its East Lake and downtown Atlanta properties and purchasing its current site in northern Fulton County (now Johns Creek). A new club soon bought the property, establishing what is now known as East Lake Golf Club.
During the 1970s, a notorious public housing project, East Lake Meadows, was built at the former site of the second course at East Lake, west of Second Avenue. A violent crime wave took over the development, and the community saw crime rise, as quality of life and housing values declined. In 1995 a private group led by developer and former resident Tom Cousins entered into a partnership with the City of Atlanta to raze the Meadows and rebuild a new mixed income development, the Villages of East Lake. With the Meadows demolition, crime began to rapidly decline, and the community began a renaissance as the 20th century ended.
Sparked by an already active community association established in 1975, residents protected and preserved the neighborhood during the tumultuous 1960s, 70s, and 80s. As a result, in the late 1990s the neighborhood began to attract young urbanites who eagerly bought the charming homes and changed the residential character of the area, subjecting East Lake to a dramatic property value inflation of 230%.
In the 2005, the East Lake Neighbors Community Association adopted the East Lake Park in Partnership with Park Pride, completing the first community vision plan for a park with that organization. The goal of the parks group was to bring neighbors together in support of renovating the neglected park. That year, the Friends of East Lake Park received a \$100,000 donation from Home Depot Foundation to build a new playground, shade structures, walking trails and benches, as well as extensive plantings throughout the park, and off site improvements at East Lake Elementary School and the Villages at East Lake. Over 800 volunteers from the community and corporate partners from Home Depot, Coca-Cola and UPS built all the improvements over a 6-hour period. Since then the Friends of East Lake Park has helped secure grant funding to renovate and restore the recreation center. The park is the pride of the community, with newly renovated tennis courts, and little league ball field, and is very active use most weekends.
In 2009, community members started the East Lake Farmers Market (ELFMarket) at the empty commercial intersection of 2nd Avenue and Hosea L. Williams Drive. The market started as a way to combat crime activity at the empty commercial intersection. The ELFMarket has evolved into 501(c)-3 not for profit charity that seeks to build community through food, hosting charity cook offs, offering reduced cost fresh produce, partnering in the community to try to improve health outcomes, and bringing together area neighbors Saturday mornings April through October each year. In 2012, the Market partnered with the Southeastern Horticultural Society to build a raised bed urban farm at the former site of a gas station.
Several months per year, a \"Yard of the Month\" award is placed on a home\'s lawn. Yards are nominated and voted for by, previous award winners.
## Geography
East Lake is bordered by:
- Knox St./Pharr Rd. and the Decatur neighborhood of Oakhurst to the north;
- 1st St. and the Atlanta neighborhood of Kirkwood to the west; also, the Villages at East Lake on the west side of East Lake are a separate neighborhood;
- Candler Road and the Belvedere Park CDP in unincorporated DeKalb County to the east and
- Glenwood Ave. and the Candler McAfee CDP in unincorporated DeKalb County to the south.

## World War II {#world_war_ii}
World War II in Europe had begun on Friday 1 September 1939 when German forces invaded Poland. On 1 February 1943, Batz was transferred to II. *Gruppe* (2nd group) of *Jagdgeschwader* 52 (JG 52---52nd Fighter Wing). The *Gruppe* was based at an airfield at Rostov-on-Don on the Eastern Front and under command of *Hauptmann* Johannes Steinhoff. The *Gruppe* was moved to the combat area of the Kuban bridgehead on 10 February where it was initially based at an airfield at Slavyansk-na-Kubani. Due to weather, II. *Gruppe* moved to Kerch on 16 February. Here flying with the *Gruppenstab* (headquarters unit), Batz claimed his first aerial victory on 11 March when he shot down a Lavochkin-Gorbunov-Gudkov LaGG-3 fighter. Two days later, the *Gruppe* moved to an airfield at Anapa. During the relocation flight, he was credited with the destruction of a Douglas A-20 Havoc bomber, also known as \"Boston\". On 1 April, Batz was promoted to *Oberleutnant* (first lieutenant).
Flying from Anapa, Batz claimed two LaGG-3 fighters shot down on 15 April, the second near Abinskaya. On 20 April, he claimed four aerial victories. He was credited with the destruction of an Ilyushin Il-2 ground-attack aircraft. A LaGG-3 fighter claimed near Gelendzhik remained unconfirmed while a further claim over another LaGG-3 fighter shot down near Kabardinka, located approximately 15 km northwest of Gelendzhik and an Il-2 ground-attack aircraft destroyed west of Gelendzhik were approved. On 24 April, he was awarded the Iron Cross 2nd Class (*Eisernes Kreuz zweiter Klasse*) for seven aerial victories. On 9 May, Batz was credited with shooting down a Yakovlev Yak-1 fighter.
### Squadron leader {#squadron_leader}

### Group commander and surrender {#group_commander_and_surrender}
thumb\|left\|upright=0.6\|III./JG 52 emblem Batz was promoted to *Hauptmann* (captain) on 1 April 1944. The narrow land bridge to the Crimean peninsula, held by the German 17th Army, came under attack from Soviet forces on 7 April, leading to the capture of Odessa on 10 April during the Dnieper--Carpathian Offensive. In these battles, Batz claimed six aerial victories on 8 April, five on 10 April, reaching his 120th victory on 13 April. One day later, II. *Gruppe* moved to an airfield at Cape Chersonesus located at the Sevastopol Bay. That morning, the airfield came under aerial attack and Batz was wounded by bomb splinters. Although his injuries were minor, he was grounded for two weeks and banned by the doctor from flying operationally. During his convalescence, Batz succeeded Günther Rall as *Gruppenkommandeur* (group commander) of III. *Gruppe* (3rd group) of JG 52 on 19 April 1944. By end April, his number of aerial victories had reached 121 claimed.
At the time of his appointment, Batz was serving with the *Gruppenstab* of I. *Gruppe* of JG 52, receiving command instructions. III. *Gruppe* was also based at Cape Chersonesus located at the Sevastopol Bay, while I. *Gruppe* at the time was based at Leipzig, present-day Serpneve. Here on 2 May, Batz became an \"ace-in-a-day\" again when he claimed three P-39s, a Yak-1 and an Il-2 shot down. On 18 May, III. *Gruppe* also arrived at Leipzig where Batz took command of the *Gruppe*. On 31 May, Batz became a triple \"ace-in-a-day\" when during the course of seven combat missions he claimed fifteen aerial victories which included six Il-2s, five P-39s and four Lavochkin La-5 fighters. This raised his total to 155 aerial victories claimed.
On 1 June, III. *Gruppe* relocated to Roman in Romania. His unit defended Romanian targets against the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) Fifteenth Air Force. Batz claimed two North American P-51 Mustang fighter aircraft on 23 June and a Consolidated B-24 Liberator bomber the following day. In aerial combat over Iași on 8 June, Batz claimed two aerial victories which included his 170th aerial victory. Batz was awarded the Knight\'s Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves (*Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit Eichenlaub*) on 20 July for 188 victories. He was the 526th member of the German armed forces to be so honored. On 15 August, III. *Gruppe* moved to Warzyn Pierwszy, Poland. The airfield was located approximately 15 km west of Jędrzejów. Here on 17 August, Batz became an \"ace-in-a-day\" again and achieved his 200th aerial victory. That day, he shot down six Soviet aircraft near Sandomierz during the fighting of the Lvov--Sandomierz offensive. The Oak Leaves were presented by Adolf Hitler at the *Führerhauptquartier* (Führer Headquarters) at Rastenburg on 25 August 1944. Two other Luftwaffe officers were presented with the Oak Leaves that day by Hitler, the night-fighter pilot *Hauptmann* Heinz Strüning and the officer of anti-aircraft warfare, *Major* (Major) Herbert Lamprecht. Following the Oak Leaves presentation, Batz was granted home leave when Batz attended Erich Hartmann\'s wedding at Bad Wiessee on 10 September.
By the end October 1944, Batz had claimed 226 aircraft shot down, placing him second behind Hartmann in III. *Gruppe*. On 1 February 1945, Batz was transferred to take command of II. *Gruppe* of JG 52, based at Veszprém in Hungary. He succeeded *Hauptmann* Hartmann who had temporarily led the *Gruppe* after its former commander *Major* Gerhard Barkhorn had been transferred. Command of III. *Gruppe* was then passed on to *Major* Adolf Borchers. Batz was awarded the Knight\'s Cross of the Iron Cross with Oak Leaves and Swords (*Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes mit Eichenlaub und Schwertern*) on 21 April 1945. The bestowal of the Swords to his Knight\'s Cross cannot be verified via the records held in the German Federal Archives. Batz presented evidence of the conferment which was confirmed by the *Gemeinschaft der Jagdflieger* (Association of German Armed Forces Airmen).
On 4 May 1945, II. *Gruppe* moved to Zeltweg Air Base but did not fly combat missions. On 8 May, *General der Flieger* Paul Deichmann, the commanding officer of *Luftwaffenkommando* 4, ordered the cease-fire by 12:00. To avoid capture by Soviet forces, Batz conferred with Deichmann and was ordered to fly his aircraft to Munich, landing at Unterbiberg where they surrendered to US forces, becoming prisoners of war. He and II. *Gruppe* personnel were then taken to Fürstenfeldbruck where most of the men were released in June 1945. Batz was taken to Bad Aibling where the ground personnel had surrendered and released shortly after.
## Later life {#later_life}
thumb\|upright=0.6\|right\|LTG 63 emblem In 1955, Batz applied for service in the West German Air Force, at the time referred to as the *Bundesluftwaffe* of the *Bundeswehr*, joining in 1956 holding the rank of *Major*. Following flight training in the United States, he succeeded *Oberstleutnant* Karl Rammelt as commander of a training squadron of *Flugzeugführerschule* \"S\" (FFS \"S\"---Pilot Training School) from 1 June to 31 December 1958. In January, pilot training on the Dornier Do 27 was relocated from Memmingen Air Base to Friedrichshafen. On 15 November, FFS \"S\" was reorganized with *Ausbildungsgruppe* A (training group A) under command of Batz relocating to Diepholz Air Base. Batz later commanded this training facility at Diepholz Air Base from 1 January 1959 to 15 December 1961. He was succeeded by *Oberstleutnat* Karl-Horst Meyer zum Felde.
Batz was then appointed Geschwaderkommodore (wing commander) of *Lufttransportgeschwader* 63 (LTG 63--Air Transport Wing 63) stationed at the Hohn Air Base in Schleswig-Holstein. He commanded the wing from 15 December 1961 to 31 January 1964, surrendering command to Horst Rudat. Promoted to *Oberstleutnant* (lieutenant colonel), Batz then served as a staff officer with *Lufttransportkommando* (Air Force Transport Command) in Köln-Wahn and retired on 30 September 1972. Here, he was part of a *Bundesluftwaffe* team (*Führungsstab der Luftwaffe* SBWS C-160---Air Force General Staff) planning the introduction of the Transall C-160 transport aircraft. Batz died on 11 September 1988 in a hospital Ebern in Unterfranken. He was buried on the cemetery in Quettingen, a borough of Leverkusen-Opladen.

# LSD: Dream Emulator
***LSD: Dream Emulator*** is a 1998 exploration game by Asmik Ace Entertainment, released for the PlayStation. In *LSD*, the player explores surreal environments without any objective. If they touch anything in the environment, such as walls, creatures or objects, they will be warped to another setting. The game was conceived by Japanese artist Osamu Sato, who rejected the idea of games, and wanted to use the PlayStation as a medium for creating contemporary art. The game\'s concept is based on a dream diary kept by an Asmik Ace employee for over a decade.
The game received a limited release in Japan, alongside a soundtrack and a book composed of excerpts from the dream diary. *LSD* quickly fell into obscurity, but in years since has experienced a resurgence in popularity due to its eccentricity being a point of discussion on numerous gaming forums, as well as several Let\'s Play commentators. The game was also released on the Japanese PlayStation Store in 2010. Critics have praised its psychedelic and whimsical qualities, and *LSD* has been cited as one of the most experimental video games of all time.
## Gameplay
*LSD: Dream Emulator* is an exploration game that has been described as a \"playable dream\" in which the player explores surrealistic environments without any overarching goals. Gameplay takes place in a first-person perspective in a 3D environment with the player\'s control limited to moving frontward and backward, turning, strafing, running, and looking behind. The game is played in levels or \"dreams\" lasting up to ten minutes. The player begins each dream in a random area where they can begin exploring. By walking into any object or walking through certain tunnels, the player will be transported to another setting. *LSD* has several static and defined environments to explore including a Japanese village, a field, a city, houses, and a factory, among others. While the environments are static, the default textures are sometimes swapped and they may also be populated with random objects, animals, and characters roaming about to add variety. Each dream ends after ten minutes in which the character wakes up, or ends early if the player interacts with certain objects or dies.
After each dream, one day passes in the game, and the dream the player just experienced is marked on a graph. The graph rates dreams in relation to being an \"Upper\", \"Downer\", \"Static\", or \"Dynamic\" dream. As a player plays through more and more dreams, the game adds more variety to the dreams by changing textures more often. This results in the environments becoming more surreal and psychedelic over time. Sometimes when starting a new dream, a video is played instead of a playable dream. After a number of in-game days, a \"flashback\" option appears on the main menu which allows the player to experience an abbreviated version of the last dream they played. There is a humanoid figure, also known as the Gray or Shadow Man, which may appear in some dreams that, if touched by the player, prevents them from using the flashback option and undoes any progress made in the current dream.

# LSD: Dream Emulator
## Development
*LSD: Dream Emulator* was conceived by Osamu Sato, a Japanese multimedia artist. Sato started his art career in photography and writing music in the 1980s, before turning to digital graphic design and computer art by the 1990s. In the 1990s, he began experimenting with CD-ROM technology, creating animated 3D videos with a dimension of interactivity. Although these projects resembled video games, Sato\'s intent was not to create games, but to use game platforms as a means of creating contemporary works of art. Sato\'s first such project was funded by Sony Music Entertainment Japan and released in 1994, titled *Eastern Mind: The Lost Souls of Tong Nou*. It was released in Japan and the United States. Because *Eastern Mind* was released in the United States and received some awards, Sato was able to source funding for his next project which would become *LSD*.
Sato still rejected the idea of video games and wanted to use the PlayStation game console as a medium for creating art and music. He chose the PlayStation as a platform because he felt Sony was already embracing elaborate concepts while he felt Sega and Nintendo had greater reputations as toy companies. Sato got the idea for *LSD* after playing racing games. He found racing games difficult and boring since he was not a skilled player, and so he imagined the possibilities of smashing the car into a wall and transporting the player to another dimension. He thought it would be more enjoyable for players like him that were unskilled at other games. From there, he got the idea of creating an imaginary world with the same irrationality and easily forgettable nature as dreams. He did not give the game any objectives because, according to him, they are not essential in video games since even natural human existence cannot be reduced to simple objectives. For inspiration, Sato pulled ideas from a dream diary written by Hiroko Nishikawa, a game designer at Asmik Ace Entertainment, who had been writing in the diary for about a decade.
As Sato is also a musician, he composed the game\'s soundtrack using samples to create around 500 musical patterns. He felt this approach more closely resembled the chaos of a dream state in contrast to full drawn-out melodies. He was particularly influenced from music coming out of England\'s Warp record label. Initially he was going to include more pentatonic scales and melodies to give the game an Asian flair, but he came to realize this was not necessary after seeing the international success of Japanese producers like Ken Ishii, who was later included on a remix soundtrack featuring some of the game\'s music. The title \"LSD\" is a reference to the drug of the same name, lysergic acid diethylamide, in a bid to attract the hippie and psychedelic subcultures. The acronym was not given any single interpretation in the game. Instead, there were many interpretations in the game such as \"in Life, the Sensuous Dream\" and \"in Limbo, the Silent Dream\". Sato felt this represented the chaos and confusion of dreams.
## Release
The game was released in Japan on October 22, 1998. Sato had hoped for an American release as with *Eastern Mind*, but he had no further say in localization. *LSD* sold few copies and now is rare to find on secondary markets, selling for high prices when it becomes listed for sale. It was re-released on the Japanese PlayStation Store on August 11, 2010. *LSD* was released as a standalone game and in a limited edition set which came with a bonus CD titled \"*Lucy in the Sky with Dynamites*\" and a book called \"*Lovely Sweet Dream*\". The CD contains about an hour of acid techno music and the book is composed of excerpts from Nishikawa\'s dream diary. The book has English translations of many dreams and illustrations provided by a wide variety of artists. Sato was adamant about releasing a special soundtrack, so a double-disc soundtrack compilation titled *LSD and Remixes* was issued alongside the game. It features remixes by Ken Ishii, Jimi Tenor, μ-Ziq, and Morgan Geist, among others. Sato released a new version of the soundtrack in 2019 with redone tracks.

## Reception
*LSD: Dream Emulator* quickly fell into obscurity after release due to its limited availability and the eccentric nature of its content, but it gained an avid cult following in subsequent years. The cause of its growing interest among Western audiences years after its release is a mystery to Sato. *Motherboard* wrote that its popularity is due to the internet, primarily from appearances on humor blogs like Cracked.com and YouTube Let\'s Play video curators who feed off the game\'s quirky qualities. *Hardcore Gaming 101* concluded that the popularity of *LSD* is a testament to the consumer demand for hallucinogenic and experimental games. Enough people contacted Sony about *LSD* that they re-released it on the Japanese PlayStation Network in 2010, generating even more interest. Sato has noticed young audiences visiting his art exhibits because they heard about him due to *LSD*{{\'s}} online popularity. English indie rock band Alt-J received permission from Sato directly to use a screenshot from *LSD* for the cover art of their studio album, *Relaxer* (2017). In 2011, a fan began developing an unofficial remake made in the Unity engine for personal computers, with a public alpha version being made available in 2014.
Regarding the quality of the game itself, *Kill Screen* called *LSD* \"one of the most unnerving and unpredictable weird video games ever made.\" *Hardcore Gaming 101* said \"there has never been another video game that so effectively conferred the feeling of an actual dream,\" and continued saying that the game is somewhat dated but is still worth experiencing. They compared the game to the comic series *Little Nemo* and *The Sandman*, the film *Dreams*, and *Alice\'s Adventures in Wonderland* as a work of art designed to emulate dreams. Red Bull Music Academy called it one of the most \"experimental titles\" in all of gaming. An English fan translation was released in 2020

**Nas\'Naga** (April 13, 1941 -- July 7, 2012) is the pen-name of Roger W. Russell, an American writer, poet, and artist. He was the fourth writer whose work was featured in the Harper & Row Native American Publishing series.
## Early life and education {#early_life_and_education}
Roger Russell was born in Dayton, Ohio, to Bill and Kitty Russell. Jennifer McClinton-Temple and Alan Velie wrote in 2010 that he was a \"Shawnee poet and artist\". He was a member of the United Remnant Band of the Shawnee Nation, an unrecognized Shawnee cultural heritage group. He was educated in local public schools. He attended Texas Christian University, where he was mentored by Dr. Don Worcester and started writing. Russell served in the United States Navy from 1959 to 1963.
## Literary career {#literary_career}
His young adult novel *Indians\' Summer* (1975) appeared in the Harper & Row Native American Publishing series; Russell was the fourth author published. He used his Shawnee pen-name of *Nas\'Naga.* It is described as shifting between farce and a recounting of issues related to Indian sovereignty. The novel depicts a revolution called in 1976 by the Sioux, Apache, Hopi, Navajo, Pueblo and Mohawk, just before the bicentennial of United States independence. They declare their own independence and the nation of Anishinabe-Waki (Land of the People), and the Sioux take control of nuclear weapons aimed at the White House. James Mackay in the *Encyclopedia of American Indian Literature* describes the novel as \"one of the fullest literal explorations of Indian separatism, and one of the few books to envision a pan-Indian state.\" Mackay also notes that the novel reflects the political activism of the 1970s. Reviewer Norm Williamson says that, in the novel, Nas\'Naga voices \"the frustrations and dreams of the young Pan-Indian native person\".
In 1979 Russell published two volumes of poetry, also as Nas\'Naga.
Russell also worked as a community activist in Columbus. Proud of his family\'s heritage, he worked for American Indian causes through his writings, including articles and poems. He also drew illustrations on this theme and gave lectures about current Native Americans and their issues. He is survived by his wife Barbara.

# Atarsamain
**Atarsamain** (also spelled **Attar-shamayin**, **Attarshamayin**, **Attarsame** (**ʿAttarsamē**); \"morning star of heaven\") (*عثتر سمين*) was an astral deity of uncertain gender, worshipped in the pre-Islamic northern and central Arabian Peninsula. Worshipped widely by Arab tribes, Atarsamain is known from around 800 BC and is identified in letters of the Assyrian kings Esarhaddon and Assurbanipal. Atarsamain may be identical with Allāt, whose cult was centred on Palmyra and also with Attar.
According to Dierk Lange, Atarsamain was the main deity in a trinity of gods worshipped by what he calls the Yumu\'il Confederation, which he describes as a northern Arab tribal confederation of Ishmaelite ancestry headed by the \"clan of Kedar\" (i.e. the Qedarites). Lange identifies Nuha as the solar deity, Ruda as the lunar deity, and Atarsamin as the main deity associated with Venus. A similar trinity of gods representing the sun, moon and Venus is found among the peoples of the South Arabian kingdoms of Awsan, Ma\'in, Qataban and Hadhramawt between the 9th and 4th centuries BC. There, the deity associated with Venus was Astarte, the sun deity was Yam, and moon deity was variously called Wadd, Amm and Sin.
Atarsamain is twice mentioned in the annals of Ashurbanipal, king of the Neo-Assyrian empire in the 7th century BC. The reference is to *a?lu (sā) a-tar-sa-ma-a-a-in* (\"the people of Attar of Heaven\") who are said to have been defeated together with the Nebayot (Nebaioth/Nabataeans) and the Qedarites led by Yauta ben Birdadda, who was also known as \"king of the Arabs\"

# Friedrich Born
**Friedrich Born** (June 10, 1903 -- January 14, 1963) was a Swiss delegate of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in Budapest between May 1944 and January 1945, when he had to leave Hungary following orders of the occupying Red Army.
Born was born in Langenthal, Canton of Bern, Switzerland. He had already lived in the Hungarian capital of Budapest before his appointment by the ICRC, working as a trader, and originally came to Budapest as a member of the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Trade. He quickly became aware of the deportation of Hungarian Jews, which began after the German Putsch in spring 1944. Following the strategy of Carl Lutz (the Swiss vice-consul), he recruited up to 3,000 Jews as workers for his offices, granting them protection, and designated several buildings as protected by the ICRC. He also managed to distribute about 15,000 *Schutzbriefe*, protection documents issued by the ICRC that prevented the deportation and death of many Hungarian Jews.
He is credited with rescuing between 11,000 and 15,000 Jews in Budapest.
After the war, as most of the saviours of Budapest, such as Carl Lutz and Giorgio Perlasca, he returned to his normal life, and kept the rememberings of his actions for himself. Twenty-four years after his death, in 1987, he was designated as Righteous Among the Nations by Yad Vashem. Only two other Red Cross workers, Roslï Näf and Valdemar Langlet, received the same designation for also saving lives during the war

# Le Clown et ses chiens
***Le Clown et ses chiens*** (aka ***The Clown and His Dogs***) is an 1892 French short animated film hand-painted in colour by Émile Reynaud. It consists of 300 individually painted images and lasts about 10 minutes. It was the second film that Reynaud made for his Théâtre Optique, after *Un bon bock* (created in 1888).
## Plot
The film shows a clown entering a circus ring and greeting the audience, before he starts to perform tricks with three dogs. The dogs jump through hoops, walk on a ball and jump over a wand.
## Release
It premiered theatrically alongside *Pauvre Pierrot* and *Un bon bock* on 28 October 1892 as part of Reynaud\'s *Pantomimes Lumineuses* program at the Musée Grévin and lasted until February 1894.
Reynaud gave the whole presentation himself manipulating the images, accompanied by Gaston Paulin on the piano. With the exception of *Un bon bock*, and Théâtre Optique films after this one, no footage can be found due to Reynaud throwing all of his films (except for a partial of *Pauvre Pierrot* and *Autour D'une Cabine*) into the Seine river in 1900

# Rauchtown Run
**Rauchtown Run**, named **Rauchtown Creek** on United States Geological Survey maps, is a tributary of the West Branch Susquehanna River in Clinton and Lycoming Counties, Pennsylvania, in the United States.
## History and geography {#history_and_geography}
Rauchtown Run flows through the eastern portions of Clinton County and into the southwestern corner of Lycoming County where it sinks underground in Limestone Township and joins Antes Creek at the village of Oriole.
Beginning in Bastress Township, **Antes Creek** sinks underground at the village of Collomsville, picking up McMurrin Run and Rattling Camp Run while underneath the surface. After receiving Rauchtown Run at Oriole, it emerges above ground at Nippenose Spring in Limestone Township before joining the West Branch Susquehanna River near Jersey Shore. Antes Creek was historically known as **Nippenose Creek**.
Nippenose is likely derived from a Lenape term \"Nipeno-wi\", meaning \"like the summer.\" The name \"Antes Creek\" honors Lt Colonel John Henry Ante, after whom nearby Fort Antes was also named. Other variant names include: Sunken Creek, Antis Creek and Rauch Creek.
The total length of Rauchtown Run and Antes Creek is 9.4 mi

# Ângelo Martins
**Ângelo Gaspar Martins** (19 April 1930 -- 11 October 2020), simply known as **Ângelo**, was a Portuguese footballer who played as a defender for Benfica and the Portugal national team.
## Club career {#club_career}
Born in Porto on 19 April 1930, Ângelo turned down an opportunity to play football for FC Porto because he was a supporter of rivals Benfica, from Lisbon, and hometown club Salgueiros.
In 1945, aged 15, Ângelo started his career playing as a left defender for Académico do Porto, where he spent three years until he was scammed by an FC Porto staff member, who gave him a false document and made him sign for the club while he still was an Académico do Porto player. As a result, the Portuguese Football Federation (FPF) banned Ângelo from football, although the punishment would only last for a few months.
Three years later, when Ângelo was a worker at his father\'s shoe store and was serving in the military in Santarém at age 20, a Benfica scout watched him play and brought him to Lisbon in 1951 to represent Benfica\'s reserves, with the FPF backing down on his ban. During his 13 seasons with *The Eagles*\' main team, from 1952 to 1965, he made 285 appearances and scored 4 goals, winning 7 Primeira Liga titles, 5 Taça de Portugal, 1 Taça de Honra, and 2 consecutive European Cups (in 1961 and 1962). He retired as a player at age 35.
## International career {#international_career}
Ângelo played for Portugal on 20 occasions. He made his debut in 1953 against Austria at the Prater Stadium and played his final match for the country in 1962 against Bulgaria at the Estádio do Restelo.

# ʿAṯtar
**ʿAṯtar** is a deity whose role, name, and even gender varied across ancient Semitic religion. In both genders, ʿAṯtar is identified with the planet Venus, the morning and evening star. ʿAṯtar is a prominent character in the Baal Cycle.
## Name
The name appears in various Semitic languages as:
- the feminine form `{{transliteration|akk|[[Ishtar|Ištar]]}}`{=mediawiki} (*𒀭𒀹𒁯}}*) in Akkadian;
- the masculine form `{{transliteration|ar|ʿAṯtar}}`{=mediawiki} (*عثتر*, `{{nowrap|{{IPA|ar|ʕaθ.tar}}}}`{=mediawiki}) in Arabic;
- and the masculine form `{{transliteration|gez|ʿÄstär}}`{=mediawiki} (*ዐስተር*) in Ethiosemitic.
## Attestations
### Among Amorites {#among_amorites}
#### At Ugarit {#at_ugarit}
##### `{{transliteration|uga|ʿAṯtar}}`{=mediawiki}
The Ugaritic masculine variant of ʿAṯtar, *𐎓𐎘𐎚𐎗}}* (`{{transliteration|uga|ʿAṯtar}}`{=mediawiki}), appears in the Baʿal Cycle.
##### `{{transliteration|uga|ʿAṯtart}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_1}
The Northwest Semitic feminine form of ʿAṯtar, the Great Goddess *𐎓𐎘𐎚𐎗𐎚}}* (`{{transliteration|uga|ʿAṯtart}}`{=mediawiki}), is often mentioned in Ugaritic ritual texts, but played a minor role in mythological texts.
### Among Aramaeans {#among_aramaeans}
Among the Aramaeans, ʿAṯtar appears in a masculine form as the god *𐡏𐡕𐡓* (`{{transliteration|oar|ʿAttar}}`{=mediawiki}), in which capacity he was identified with the baetyl as *𒁹𒀀𒋻𒋡𒈬}}* (`{{transliteration|oar|ʿAttar-qāmu}}`{=mediawiki}, `{{lit|ʿAttar is the baetyl}}`{=mediawiki}).
Within the ancient Aramaean religion, the deceased ancestors of the clans, called `{{transliteration|oar|ʿamm}}`{=mediawiki}, were worshipped as idealised figures who could become assimilated to ʿAttar, as evidenced by personal names such as *𒁹𒀀𒋻𒄩𒄠}}* *𒁹𒀀𒋻𒄩𒈬}}* (`{{transliteration|oar|ʿAttar-ʿammu}}`{=mediawiki}, `{{lit|ʿAttar is the ancestor}}`{=mediawiki}), and *𒁹𒀀𒀜𒋻}}* and *𒁹𒀀𒈨𒀀𒋻}}* (`{{transliteration|oar|ʿAmmī-ʿAttar}}`{=mediawiki}, `{{lit|My ancestor is ʿAttar}}`{=mediawiki}).
The use of the name of the god ʿAttar as a theophoric element is attested in the name *𐡁𐡓𐡏𐡕𐡓* (`{{transliteration|oar|Bar-ʿAttar}}`{=mediawiki}, `{{lit|Son of ʿAttar}}`{=mediawiki}), which is attested on an 8th-century BC stamp seal and was also the name of the earliest known ruler of Laqē, as well as *𐡏𐡕𐡓𐡎𐡌𐡊* (`{{transliteration|oar|ʿAttar-sumki}}`{=mediawiki}, `{{lit|ʿAttar is my support}}`{=mediawiki}), which was the name of two rulers of the kingdom of Bēt-Gūš. The name of this god always appears in the masculine form even in women\'s names, such as ʿAttar-ramat and ʿAttar-ṭabat, thus attesting that the Aramaean ʿAttar was a distinctly masculine deity.
#### `{{transliteration|oar|ʿAttar-Šamayin}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_2}
One of the hypostases of the Aramaean ʿAttar was *𐡏𐡕𐡓𐡔𐡌𐡉𐡍* (`{{transliteration|oar|ʿAttar-Šamayin}}`{=mediawiki}), that is the ʿAttar of the Heavens: in this role, ʿAttar was the incarnation of the sky\'s procreative power in the form of the moisture provided by rain, which made fertile his consort, the goddess of the Earth which has been dried up by the summer heat. Due to ʿAttar\'s role as a provider of rain, his epithet \"of the Heavens\" refers to his manifestation as lightning and thunder in the skies.
The name of the goddess who was the consort of ʿAttar is itself not attested in Aramaic, but is recorded in Sabaic as *𐩠𐩥𐩨𐩪}}* (`{{transliteration|xsa|Huwbis}}`{=mediawiki}) or *𐩠𐩨𐩪}}* (`{{transliteration|xsa|Hūbis}}`{=mediawiki}), which was derived from the South Semitic root *𐩺-𐩨-𐩪}}* (`{{transliteration|xsa|y-b-s}}`{=mediawiki}), itself a declension of the Semitic root `{{transliteration|sem|y-b-š}}`{=mediawiki}, meaning \"to be dry.\" The position of Hūbis/Huwbis as the consort of ʿAttar-Šamayin is attested by the depiction of a goddess in front of a standing worshipper on an 8th-century Aramaean cylinder seal, with the image of a vulva, the symbol of Hūbis/Huwbis, being present behind the goddess and over a recumbent gazelle - the sacred animal of ʿAttar - over which was also inscribed the name of the god himself.
The earliest record of ʿAttar-Šamayin is from an Aramaic inscription on the 8th-century BC cylinder seal belonging to an individual named `{{transliteration|oar|Barruq}}`{=mediawiki}, who is described in the inscription as a *𐡏𐡁𐡃 𐡏𐡕𐡓𐡔𐡌𐡉𐡍* (`{{transliteration|oar|{{sc|ʿbd ʿtršmyn}}}}`{=mediawiki}. `{{lit|servant of ʿAttar-Šamayin}}`{=mediawiki}); Barruq\'s own name, which means \"thunder,\" was a reference to ʿAttar-Šamayin in his role as a god associated with thunder and lightning.
### In Africa {#in_africa}
In the Kingdom of Aksum situated in the Horn of Africa, ʿAttar was worshiped: as the god of the sun and moon and as the father of the other members of the Axumite pantheon: Maher and Beher, the former of which they shared with the Himyarite Kingdom. He was associated with the god Zeus.

## Attestations
### In South Arabia {#in_south_arabia}
Among the ancient South Arabians, *𐩲𐩻𐩩𐩧}}* (`{{transliteration|xsa|ʿAṯtar}}`{=mediawiki}) was a masculine deity who had retained the prominence of his role as the deity of the planet Venus as the Morning Star, and was a god presiding over thunderstorms and who provided natural irrigation as rain. ʿAṯtar thus held a very important place within the ancient South Arabian pantheon, in which he replaced the old Semitic high god ʾIl as the supreme deity.
The name of ʿAṯtar was suffixed with a mimation in the South Arabian kingdom of Ḥaḍramawt, thus giving the Ḥaḑramitic form *𐩲𐩯𐩩𐩧𐩣}}* (`{{transliteration|am|{{sc|ʿśtrm}}}}`{=mediawiki}).
Within South Arabian polytheism, ʿAṯtar held a supreme position within the cosmology of the ancient South Arabians as the god presiding over the whole world, always appeared first in lists, and had various manifestations with their own epithets. The rulers of the ancient South Arabian states would offer ritual banquets in honour of ʿAṯtar, with the banquet being paid for from the tithe offered to the god by the populace.
The patron deity of the Qatabānians, however, was the Moon-god, variously called *𐩲𐩣}}* (`{{transliteration|xqt|ʿAmm}}`{=mediawiki}, in Qatabān) or *𐪊𐪚𐩬}}* (`{{transliteration|xhd|Sayīn}}`{=mediawiki}, in Ḥaḍramawt), who was seen as being closer to the people compared to the more distant figure of ʿAṯtar, and the people of these states consequently called themselves the children of their respective Moon-god.
#### The hunter god {#the_hunter_god}
The South Arabian ʿAṯtar was a hunter god, and the ancient South Arabians performed ritual hunts in his honour as fertility rites with the goal of making the rain fall. The chosen prey during these hunts were probably gazelles, which were sacred to ʿAṯtar.
This hunter aspect of ʿAṯtar is also present in his Northwest Semitic feminine variant, who is called *𐎓𐎘𐎚𐎗𐎚𐎟𐎕𐎆𐎄𐎚}}* (`{{transliteration|uga|ʿAṯtart ṣawwādatu}}`{=mediawiki}, `{{lit|ʿAṯtart the huntress}}`{=mediawiki}) in one passage of an Ugaritic text. The Sabaic hallowed phrase *𐩺𐩥𐩣 𐩮𐩵 𐩮𐩺𐩵 𐩲𐩻𐩩𐩧}}* (`{{transliteration|xsa|ywm ṣd ṣyd ʿṯtr}}`{=mediawiki}, `{{lit|the day when he performed the hunt for ʿAṯtar}}`{=mediawiki}) itself had a parallel in a reference to *𒄿𒈾 𒌋𒐋 𒌓𒈪 𒍝𒁺 𒊭 𒀭𒀸𒁯}}* (`{{transliteration|akk|ina 16 umi ṣadu ša [[Dingir|ᴰ]]Aštart}}`{=mediawiki}, `{{lit|on the 16th day is the hunt of ʿAṯtart}}`{=mediawiki}) in a text from Emar.
#### `{{transliteration|xsa|Kirrūm}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_3}
One of the hypostases of the South Arabian ʿAṯtar was *𐩫𐩧𐩥𐩣}}* (`{{transliteration|xsa|Kirrūm}}`{=mediawiki}), whose name, which was a `{{transliteration|sem|qittūl}}`{=mediawiki}-pattern Semitic word formation meaning \"rainfall,\" was related to Geʽez *ክራምት* (`{{transliteration|gez|kəramt}}`{=mediawiki}), Amharic *ክረምት* (`{{transliteration|am|krämt}}`{=mediawiki}), Tigrē *ካራም* (`{{transliteration|tig|karam}}`{=mediawiki}), and Eastern Gurage *ከርም* (`{{transliteration|sem-x-egurage|kärm}}`{=mediawiki}), all meaning \"rainy season.\" Kirrūm was thus a form of ʿAṯtar who provided fertility in the form of the rain he dispensed.
The Babylonians identified Kirrūm, under the name *𒀭𒆥𒀸𒈠}}* (`{{transliteration|akk|[[Dingir|ᴰ]]Kinruma}}`{=mediawiki}), with their own goddess *𒀭𒀹𒁯}}* (`{{transliteration|akk|[[Dingir|ᴰ]][[Inanna|Ištar]]}}`{=mediawiki}), who was herself the goddess of the planet Venus as well as the Mesopotamian feminine form of ʿAṯtar.
#### `{{transliteration|xsa|ʿAṯtar-Šariqān}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_4}
Another hypostasis of the South Arabian ʿAṯtar was *𐩲𐩻𐩩𐩧𐩦𐩧𐩤𐩬}}* (`{{transliteration|xsa|ʿAṯtar-Šariqān}}`{=mediawiki}), that is ʿAṯtar of the East, who was invoked especially in curses as an avenger god against enemies.

## Attestations
### Among Arabs {#among_arabs}
ʿAṯtar was worshipped as a masculine deity among the ancient Arabs, who during the Iron Age were located principally in the Syrian Desert and North Arabia.
#### `{{transliteration|xna|ʿAttar-ʾaśyimāʾ}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_5}
Similarly to the link between ʿAttar and the ancestral cult of the `{{transliteration|oar|ʿamm}}`{=mediawiki} among the Aramaeans, there also existed a connection between ʿAttar and the cult of the ancestors among Arabs which is attested from as early as the 7th century BC in the form of a personal name recorded in Akkadian as *𒀭𒀀𒋫𒊏𒋛𒈠}}* (`{{transliteration|akk|[[Dingir|ᴰ]]Atar-asima}}`{=mediawiki}), from an original Ancient North Arabian form `{{transliteration|xna|ʿAttar-ʾaśyimāʾ}}`{=mediawiki}, in which the divine patron of a clan or tribe, the *𐪆𐪚𐪃}}* (`{{transliteration|xna|śaym}}`{=mediawiki}, of which `{{transliteration|xna|ʾaśyimāʾ}}`{=mediawiki} is the `{{transliteration|xna|ʾafʿilāʾu}}`{=mediawiki}-type broken plural), is assimilated to ʿAttar.
#### `{{transliteration|oar|ʿAttar-Muṣurūn}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_6}
One 8th century BC Aramaic inscription found in a tomb in a region of the Zagros Mountains close to a Mannaean royal tomb mentions ʿAttar as *𐡀𐡕𐡓𐡌𐡑𐡍* (`{{transliteration|oar|ʿAttar-Muṣurūn}}`{=mediawiki}), that is a variant of ʿAttar whose epithet was the Old Arabic plural form of *مصر* (`{{transliteration|ar|muṣru}}`{=mediawiki}), `{{lit|march}}`{=mediawiki}, with ʿAttar-Muṣurūn thus being ʿAttar of the Marches. The name \"the Marches\" itself was the designation assigned by the Mesopotamians to the northern Ḥijāz and the Negev. The name of the deity is followed by the title *𐡍𐡂𐡔* (`{{transliteration|oar|ngš}}`{=mediawiki}), corresponding to Ancient North Arabian *𐪌𐪔𐪆}}* (`{{transliteration|xna|ngś}}`{=mediawiki}) and Ethiosemitic *ንጉሥ* (`{{transliteration|gez|nəguś}}`{=mediawiki}), and meaning \"the ruler.\"
ʿAttar-Muṣurūn was thus the main deity of North Arabia, and the tomb in which his name was found inscribed likely belonged to an Arab who had been deported by the Assyrians to their northeastern border regions.
#### In Qedar {#in_qedar}
##### `{{transliteration|xna|ʿAttar-Šamē}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_7}
The Qedarite Arabs worshipped ʿAṯtar in his form of `{{transliteration|oar|ʿAttar-Šamayin}}`{=mediawiki}, whose name is attested in Ancient North Arabian as *𐪒𐪉𐪇𐪊𐪃}}* (`{{transliteration|xna|ʿAttar-Šamē}}`{=mediawiki}). Assyrian records mention this god, referred to in Akkadian as *𒀭𒀀𒋻𒊓𒈠𒀀𒀀𒅔}}* (`{{transliteration|akk|[[Dingir|ᴰ]]Atar-Samayin}}`{=mediawiki}, reflecting the Aramaic form `{{transliteration|oar|ʿAttar-Šamayin}}`{=mediawiki} rather than the Ancient North Arabian `{{transliteration|xna|ʿAttar-Šamē}}`{=mediawiki}), as one of the Qedarite deities whose idols were captured as war booty by the Neo-Assyrian king Sîn-ahhī-erība and was returned to the Qedarites by his son and successor Aššur-aḫa-iddina.
##### `{{transliteration|xsa|ʿAṯtar-Kirrūm}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_8}
The worship of ʿAṯtar in his form of `{{transliteration|xsa|ʿAṯtar-Kirrūm}}`{=mediawiki} was also practised by the Qedarites, as attested by an inscription of the Neo-Assyrian king Aššur-aḫa-iddina mentioning this deity in Akkadian as *𒀭𒀀𒋻𒆪𒊒𒈠𒀀}}* (`{{transliteration|akk|[[Dingir|ᴰ]]Atar-Kumrumā}}`{=mediawiki}), with the dissimilation of the epithet `{{transliteration|xsa|kirrūm}}`{=mediawiki} into `{{transliteration|akk|kumrumā}}`{=mediawiki} reflecting the influence of Akkadian *𒆪𒌝𒀸}}* (`{{transliteration|akk|kumrum}}`{=mediawiki}) and Aramaic *𐡊𐡅𐡌𐡓𐡅* (`{{transliteration|oar|kumru}}`{=mediawiki}), meaning \"priest.\"
#### In Palmyra {#in_palmyra}
##### `{{transliteration|sem-x-palmyren|Bōlʿastōr}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_9}
At Palmyra, where lived a large Arab population, the Arab ʿAṯtar was assimilated with the Arameo-Canaanite great god, Baʿal, in the form of `{{transliteration|sem-x-palmyren|Bōlʿaṯtār}}`{=mediawiki}, later *𐡡𐡥𐡫𐡰𐡯𐡶𐡴}}* (`{{transliteration|sem-x-palmyren|Bōlʿastōr}}`{=mediawiki}), that is Baʿal-ʿAṯtar.

## Attestations
### In Canaan {#in_canaan}
The masculine form *𐤏𐤔𐤕𐤓}}* (`{{transliteration|sem-x-canaan|ʿAštar}}`{=mediawiki}) existed among the Canaanite peoples as an astral deity, which is attested by his mention along with the Moon-God Šaggar in the 9th or 7th century BC Dayr ʿAllā inscription, the subject of which is largely the Sun-goddess Šamāš, thus forming a triad of the Sun, Moon, and Venus similarly to the one attested in South Arabia, and suggesting a South Arabian religious influence in Moab. The hypostases of ʿAṯtar who appear among the various Canaanite peoples might have been an indigenous Transjordanian variation of his or local adaptations of the North Arabian variant of the god.
#### In Phoenicia {#in_phoenicia}
##### `{{transliteration|phn|ʿAštar}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_10}
A possible Phoenician variant of `{{transliteration|sem-x-canaan|ʿAštar}}`{=mediawiki} might be attested as a theophoric element *𐤏𐤔𐤕𐤓}}* (`{{transliteration|phn|ʿAštar}}`{=mediawiki}) in a personal name from Byblos, *𐤏𐤔𐤕𐤓𐤇𐤍}}* (`{{transliteration|phn|{{sc|ʿštr-ḥn}}}}`{=mediawiki}).
##### `{{transliteration|sem-x-canaan|ʿAštarum}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_11}
In the 5th century BC, under the Achaemenid Empire, a shrine dedicated to `{{transliteration|sem-x-canaan|ʿAštar}}`{=mediawiki} existed in the Sharon Plain in Canaan, at a location corresponding to the present-day Israeli town of Elyakhin, where he was worshipped by Phoenicians, Aramaeans, and Arabs.
Arabian units of the Achaemenid army stationed in Canaan during the 5th century BC who participated in the cult of `{{transliteration|sem-x-canaan|ʿAštar}}`{=mediawiki} have left inscriptions recording his name, suffixed with a mimation to differentiate him from the Canaanite feminine form of ʿAṯtar, *𐤏𐤔𐤕𐤓𐤕}}* (`{{transliteration|obm|ʿAštart}}`{=mediawiki}), in the Phoenician and Aramaic scripts as *𐤏𐤔𐤕𐤓𐤌}}* and *𐡏𐡔𐡕𐡓𐡌}}* (`{{transliteration|sem|ʿAštarum}}`{=mediawiki}). This form of the god\'s name was distinctly North Arabian, showing that the worshippers who had left these inscriptions were originally from North Arabia, possibly from Taymāʿ or Dadān.
#### In Moab {#in_moab}
##### `{{transliteration|obm|ʿAštar-Kamōš}}`{=mediawiki} {#section_12}
ʿAštar was attested among the Canaanite people of the Moabites during the 9th century BC, when he was identified with the patron god of Moab, *𐤊𐤌𐤔}}* (`{{transliteration|obm|Kamōš}}`{=mediawiki}), in the form of *𐤏𐤔𐤕𐤓𐤊𐤌𐤔}}* (`{{transliteration|obm|ʿAštar-Kamōš}}`{=mediawiki}).
According to the inscription of the Moabite king Mōšaʿ on the victory stele commemorating his triumph in a war against the Israelites, he had sacrificed the whole population of the town of Nebo to ʿAštar-Kamōš. This was likely due to the influence of the South Arabian ʿAṯtar-Šariqān, that is of ʿAštar\'s hypostasis as an avenger deity who was invoked in curses against enemies.
#### Legacy

# Aurelio Milani
**Aurelio Milani** (`{{IPA|it|auˈrɛːljo miˈlaːni}}`{=mediawiki}; 14 May 1934 -- 25 November 2014) was an Italian footballer who played as a forward. Milani played for several different Italian clubs in Serie A and Serie B, winning the top scorer award in both divisions. In total, he collected 157 appearances in Serie A, scoring 62 goals, and 100 appearances in Serie B, scoring 54 goals. Milani is mostly remembered for his two seasons spent with Internazionale\'s Grande Inter side under manager Helenio Herrera. He was part of their European Cup victory in 1964, and with Inter, he also won the 1964--65 Serie A title, and the 1964 Intercontinental Cup. He also represented the Italy national side on one occasion.
A powerful player, Milani was a fast, strong, hard-working, and traditional centre-forward. He excelled in the air due to his heading accuracy, and he also possessed a powerful and accurate shot, which allowed him to be a prolific goalscorer throughout his career. He was also a generous team player, who was capable of playing with his back to goal, holding up the ball, and laying it off for teammates, providing them with assists.
## Club career {#club_career}
### Early years {#early_years}
Milani began his career playing for the Aurora Desio youth side at the beginning of the 1950s, before being scouted by Atalanta, who loaned him to Fanfulla during the 1953--54 Serie B season and the 1954--55 Serie C season. Simmenthal\'s Monza purchased him, which allowed him to play in Serie B again. With the club, he scored 37 times over two Serie B seasons, winning the Serie B top scorer award during the 1955--56 Serie B season. His impressive performances caught the eye of the Triestina management, and during the following season, Milani scored 17 goals in 30 Serie B appearances for the Friuli club.
### Serie A debut {#serie_a_debut}
The following season, Milani made his Serie A debut with Sampdoria during the 1958--59 Serie A season, on 21 September 1958 in a 1--0 defeat against Lazio, in Rome. He formed a formidable attacking trio with Mora and Cucchiaroni throughout his first season, scoring 13 goals. During the 1959--60 Serie A season, however, he was injured to his leg in a match against Bologna, which prevented him from playing for a lengthy period.
### Emergence in Serie A {#emergence_in_serie_a}
Nereo Rocco took Milani to Padova, and the Italian striker formed a notable attacking partnership with Crippa, scoring 18 goals. In the summer of 1961, the president of Fiorentina, Longinotti, acquired Milani to strengthen his front-line, which featured the likes of Gianfranco Petris and Hamrin, who helped the team to capture the 1960--61 European Cup Winners\' Cup and the Coppa Italia. In his first full season with the club, Milani initially went scoreless in Serie A for the first five matches, but on the sixth match-day of the 1961--62 Serie A season, on 24 September 1961, Milani scored two goals in a 5--2 home win over Udinese. This match is also remembered as being the debut of the legendary Italian goalkeeper Dino Zoff, therefore the first two goals that he conceded in his career were scored by Milani. With 22 goals, Milani finished the Serie A campaign as the joint Serie A topscorer, alongside Scudetto winner José Altafini, helping Fiorentina to a third-place finish in the league. Milani also helped Fiorentina to another European Cup Winners\' Cup final that season.
### Inter and later career {#inter_and_later_career}
After a negative 1962--63 season, in which he managed to score only a single goal in 18 Serie A appearances for Fiorentina, Milani was purchased by Inter, becoming a member of what would later be known as Helenio Herrera\'s \"Grande Inter\" side. Milani had a successful season with the Milanese club, scoring 7 goals in 18 Serie A appearances, helping Inter to a second-place finish in Serie A, narrowly missing out on the title after a losing a playoff match against the eventual 1964 Serie A champions, Bologna, who were tied on points with Inter for first place after the season\'s conclusion. Milani also won the 1963--64 European Cup with Inter that season, and he scored a goal in the 1964 European Cup final against Real Madrid. The following season, he followed up this triumph by winning the 1964 Intercontinental Cup with Inter against Copa Libertadores winners Independiente. During the winter of 1964, however, Milani was seriously injured in a European Cup match against Dynamo Bucarest, after getting kneed in the back. As a result of the collision, one of his vertebrae was displaced, thus ending his career prematurely. During his second season at Inter, he was still able to win a second European Cup, and the Serie A title, despite only playing in 11 matches, also reaching the Coppa Italia final with Inter.
Milani did attempt to temporarily return to football during the 1966--67 season, playing for Verbania in the lower Italian divisions, in Serie C, for a single season, scoring 1 goal in 8 appearances, before officially retiring.
## International career {#international_career}
Milani only earned a single cap for the Italy national football team throughout his career. This occurred on 10 May 1964, in a 3--1 away defeat to Switzerland in an international friendly in Losanna.

# Carlo Tagnin
**Carlo Tagnin** (18 November 1932 -- 13 March 2000) was an Italian footballer and manager, who played as a midfielder, most notably for the famous Inter side of the 1960s, which achieved much success, both domestically and internationally. As a defensive midfielder, he was known in particular for his stamina, work-rate, and man-marking ability, which allowed him to support his more offensive teammates defensively.
## Playing career {#playing_career}
After growing up in Torino\'s youth sector, Tagnin was later promoted to the club\'s senior side, but began his professional career during the 1952--53 season, on loan to his hometown club Alessandria, in Serie C. He returned to Torino the following season, and remained with the club until 1954, making his Serie A debut with the club in a 1--1 away draw against Sampdoria, on 13 September 1953. He later also played for Monza in Serie B (1954--57), briefly returning to Alessandria for the 1957--58 Serie A season. Tagnin subsequently played for Lazio (1958--59), where he won the Coppa Italia in 1958, and Bari (1959--61), but was subsequently banned for `{{frac|2|1|2}}`{=mediawiki} seasons after being accused of being involved in a gambling scandal. His sentence was later reduced by a year, and in 1962, he joined Internazionale, where he had his most notable spell, remaining with the club until 1965, after struggling to gain playing time ahead of the younger defensive midfielder Gianfranco Bedin during his final season with the team. Tagnin ended his career after the 1965--66 season, returning to Alessandria once again, in Serie B.
While at Inter, Tagnin was part of the starting eleven of Helenio Herrera\'s *Grande Inter* side which won the European Champions Cup final in 1964, during which he demonstrated his excellent man-marking abilities against Real Madrid\'s star player Alfredo Di Stefano. With Inter he also won two Serie A titles, in 1963 and 1965, as well as a second European Cup in 1965, and the 1964 Intercontinental Cup, making 56 appearances (36 in Serie A), and scoring 1 goal, which came in Serie A.
## Managerial career {#managerial_career}
Tagnin later worked as a coach, beginning his managerial career with Albese (1972--73), and later coaching Savona (1973--74), the Inter Youth Side (1975--83), and the Alessandria Youth Side (1983--85), before leading the senior side for the 1985--86 Serie C2 season.
## Death
Tagnin died of osteosarcoma on 13 March 2000, in his hometown of Alessandria, at the age of 67. In a 2004 interview with *l\'espresso*, his former Inter teammate Ferruccio Mazzola suggested that his death was associated with health-damaging performance-enhancing drugs that were allegedly given to the players of the *Grande Inter* side under manager Helenio Herrera

# Giuliano Sarti
**Giuliano Sarti** (`{{IPA|it|dʒuˈljaːno ˈsarti}}`{=mediawiki}; 2 October 1933 -- 5 June 2017) was an Italian professional football player, who played in the position of goalkeeper. Throughout his successful career, he played for several Italian clubs, although he is mostly remembered for his success with Fiorentina, and as the goalkeeper of the \"Grande Inter\" side of the 1960s that conquered both Italy and Europe.
## Club career {#club_career}
Sarti is mostly remembered for his successful stints at Fiorentina and Internazionale, clubs with which he won several domestic and international trophies. After starting his career in the lower divisions with season long stints at Centese (1952--53) and Bondenese (1953--54), he moved to Fiorentina in 1954, where he soon managed to obtain a place in the team\'s starting line-up despite competition from Leonardo Costagliola initially, and later Enrico Albertosi. During his time with the club (1954--63), he won the Serie A, the Coppa Italia and the European Cup Winners\' Cup titles.
Sarti is particularly regarded for his role as the starting keeper in the highly successful \"Grande Inter\" side of the 1960s under manager Helenio Herrera. He joined the club in 1963, and during his time with the team, he formed a legendary partnership with fullbacks Burgnich and Facchetti, as well as sweeper Armando Picchi, in Inter\'s tenacious \"catenaccio\" defence that helped the team to conquer Italian, European, and World football. During his five seasons with the club, he won two Serie A titles, two European Cups, and two Intercontinental Cups. After leaving Inter in 1968, he later spent the 1968--69 season with Juventus as a back-up to Roberto Anzolin. He subsequently joined Unione Valdinievole the following season, where he remained until his retirement in 1973.
## International career {#international_career}
Sarti also represented Italy eight times throughout his career between 1959 and 1967, although he was never called up for a major tournament with Italy due to competition from several other notable Italian goalkeepers at the time. He made his international debut on 29 November 1959, in a 1--1 home draw against Hungary.
## Style of play {#style_of_play}
Sarti is regarded by pundits as one of the greatest and most successful Italian goalkeepers both of his generation, and of all time. A consistent and reliable keeper known for his shot-stopping abilities, he was also highly regarded for his composure, personality and strong mentality, as well as his positional sense in goal, which enabled him to make efficient rather than spectacular saves which relied more on athleticism.
He was also known for revolutionising the role of the goalkeeper in Italy, functioning as a \"sweeper keeper\", due to his tendency to rush off his line to anticipate opposing strikers, or to be involved in the build-up of plays by coming out of his area to receive or play the ball out to his defenders. In one on one situations, however, he usually preferred to remain closer to his line and position himself with his body constantly facing the shooter, in order to increase the distance between himself and his opponent, giving him more time to parry the ball; this playing style, which was later described as \"geometric\" rather than \"reactive\" by Sarti, was considered unusual for the time, but very effective.
## After retirement {#after_retirement}
Sarti retired from professional football in 1969, after one season with Juventus. After retiring, he also worked as a manager for Lucchese.

# Brent Rathgeber
**Brent M. Rathgeber**, KC (born July 24, 1964) is a lawyer, author and politician from Alberta, Canada. He was a Progressive Conservative member of the Legislative Assembly of Alberta from 2001 to 2004 and was elected to the House of Commons of Canada in the 2008 federal election as a Conservative. He resigned from the Conservative caucus in 2013 and sat as an independent. He ran as an independent candidate in the riding of St. Albert---Edmonton in the 2015 federal election but was defeated by Conservative candidate Michael Cooper.
In 2016, Rathgeber returned to the business world as a political consultant. He joined Cody Law Office in St. Albert, providing a full range of legal services, advocacy and consulting.
## Early life {#early_life}
Rathgeber was born in Melville, Saskatchewan. After graduating from Melville Comprehensive School in 1982, He obtained his Bachelor of Arts in Public Administration and Bachelor of Laws degrees from the University of Saskatchewan.
## Career
### Alberta MLA (2001--2004) {#alberta_mla_20012004}
Rathgeber won election to the provincial electoral district of Edmonton Calder in the 2001 Alberta general election after defeating Liberal incumbent Lance White.
In the 2004 Alberta general election, after only serving one term in office, he was defeated by David Eggen of the New Democratic Party.
### House of Commons (2008--2015) {#house_of_commons_20082015}
Rathgeber stood as the Conservative Party of Canada candidate for the federal electoral district of Edmonton---St. Albert in the 2008 election and was elected with 61.6 per cent of the vote. He was re-elected in the 2011 federal election.
Regarding supply management, Rathgeber said \"One can occasionally be critical of the Government without being disloyal. I proudly serve in the Conservative (Government) Caucus but do not leave the viewpoints of my constituents behind every time I board a plane to Ottawa. It is natural for me to question Supply Management, since I represent 140,000 consumers but not a single dairy farmer. Similarly, all of my adult constituents are taxpayers but only a tiny fraction work for the federal government; as a result, I believe it is appropriate that I question public pensions (including my own) and demand respect for taxpayer dollars generally.\"
Rathgeber has voiced his support for motion 312, which says Canada should re-examine when human life begins.
Rathgeber blogged in 2012 that voters complained to him about the limousine expenses of Tory cabinet ministers when he travelled to Saskatchewan for a funeral.
On 5 June 2013, Rathgeber announced that he had resigned from the Conservative Caucus due to what he believed to be the \"Government\'s lack of commitment to transparency and open government.\"
In November 2014, Rathgeber was awarded the honour of \"Member of Parliament who best represents his constituents\" by *Maclean\'s* magazine. This award was voted on by all Members of Parliament and recognized his ability to represent constituents more effectively when freed from party positions and discipline.
In the 2015 federal election, he ran as an independent in St. Albert---Edmonton, a reconfigured version of his old riding. He finished third, with 19.7 percent of the vote, behind Conservative candidate, Michael Cooper.

# Veterinary pathology
**Veterinary pathologists** are veterinarians who specialize in the diagnosis of diseases through the examination of animal tissue and body fluids. Like medical pathology, veterinary pathology is divided into two branches, anatomical pathology and clinical pathology. Other than the diagnosis of disease in food-producing animals, companion animals, zoo animals and wildlife, veterinary pathologists also have an important role in drug discovery and safety as well as scientific research.
## Veterinary anatomical pathology {#veterinary_anatomical_pathology}
Anatomical pathology (Commonwealth) or anatomic pathology (U.S.) is concerned with the diagnosis of disease based on the gross examination, microscopic, and molecular examination of organs, tissues, and whole bodies (necropsy). Veterinary pathology also takes into account the structure and function of the body and how particular cells were injured.`{{page needed|date=March 2024}}`{=mediawiki} The Indian, European, Japanese, and American Colleges of Veterinary Pathologists certify veterinary pathologists through a certifying exam after completing a residency program. After completing the residency and the exam, a certificate will be given out to display specialization in veterinary pathology. The American College of Veterinary Pathologist certification exam consists of four parts, - gross pathology, microscopic pathology, veterinary pathology, and general pathology. Only the general pathology section is shared between the anatomic and clinical pathology examinations. Veterinary pathologists are employed in several different positions, including diagnostics, teaching, research, and the pharmaceutical industry.
## Veterinary clinical pathology {#veterinary_clinical_pathology}
Clinical pathology is concerned with the diagnosis of disease based on the laboratory analysis of bodily fluids such as blood, urine or cavitary effusions, or tissue aspirates using the tools of chemistry, microbiology, hematology, and molecular pathology. Clinical pathology labs offer many services including hematology, hemostasis, urinalysis, cytology, and clinical biochemistry tests. Many clinical pathology tests can be done \"in\" or \"out\" of house, meaning that the test can be done in that particular clinic or sent to a further specialized outside laboratory. Many patients have the desire to do \"in-house\" tests because it is usually cheaper. Ultimately, veterinary pathology consists of most of the behind-the-scenes laboratory work that studies virus, infections, bacteria, and much more. Without veterinary pathologists, illness would spread throughout many species of animals much quicker than in the present day

# Linda McCullough Thew
**Linda McCullough Thew** (*nee* Summers, 13 April 1918 -- 25 December 2013) was a British author. She wrote short stories and books and produced programs for television and radio. She is most noted for her memoir of life in the town of Ashington, *The Pit Village and the Store*, which was later dramatized for British television.
## Biography
McCullough Thew was born in Ashington. She left school at 14 to work in the village store in Ashington, Northumberland (recounted in *The Pit Village and the Store*). It was in the 1930s when she started and she was the first woman to work as an assistant at that co-operative store.
In 1942, she joined the ATS where she worked on anti-aircraft radar. She transferred to the Army Education Corps and subsequently took a teachers\' training course in Newcastle. McCullough Thew \"pioneered sex education in schools\" and produced programs for television and radio about human relationships in the mid-1960s. After a career in teaching she became a full-time writer. *The Pit Village and the Store* was dramatized by Channel 4 and broadcast in 1987.
McCullough Thew died at East Riding Residential Care Home in Morpeth on Christmas Day, 2013. Items that she had collected from her past, including World War II memorabilia, were donated to the Woodhorn Museum.
## Work
McCullough Thew\'s autobiographical narrative about the Ashington Co-operative Society was considered a notable study of the co-operative movement in England by Nicole Robertson. *Labour History* called *The Pit Village and the Store* an \"affectionate memoir of life in Ashington.\"

# John Young (pioneer)
**John Young** (March 8, 1764 -- 1825) was an American surveyor and pioneer. He is best known as the founder of Youngstown, Ohio, a village that eventually became one of the nation\'s largest steel producers.
## Early years {#early_years}
John Young was born in Peterborough, New Hampshire and moved to Whitestown, New York, where he married Mary Stone White, the daughter of Whitestown\'s founder, Hugh White. In 1796, John Young moved with his wife and their son, John Young Jr. to what would become Ohio while he surveyed the area, and settled there soon after. Also in 1796, Young and a party of surveyors made their first visit to the future site of Youngstown, Ohio, an area that Young had considered purchasing. On February 9, 1797, he purchased the entire township of 15,560 acres (63 km²) from the Western Reserve Land Company for \$16,085 through a land contact, though the official conveyance was not completed until April 9, 1800, as Young and the Western Reserve Land Company were still negotiating. The 1797 establishment of the town was officially recorded on August 19, 1802. Young lived in the area from 1799 to 1803.
## Pioneer in Ohio and return to New York State {#pioneer_in_ohio_and_return_to_new_york_state}
The Youngs had their son George during their time in Ohio, but they eventually returned to Whitestown due to Mary\'s health in 1803.
## Death and family {#death_and_family}
Young died in Whitestown in 1825. The Youngs\' had three sons, John Young Jr (1794-1875), who later became a Commodore in the United States Navy, William Clark Young (1799-1893), US Army Colonel and surveyor and George Young (1796-1828)

# Affine manifold
In differential geometry, an **affine manifold** is a differentiable manifold equipped with a flat, torsion-free connection.
Equivalently, it is a manifold that is (if connected) covered by an open subset of ${\mathbb R}^n$, with monodromy acting by affine transformations. This equivalence is an easy corollary of Cartan--Ambrose--Hicks theorem.
Equivalently, it is a manifold equipped with an atlas---called **the affine structure**---such that all transition functions between charts are affine transformations (that is, have constant Jacobian matrix); two atlases are equivalent if the manifold admits an atlas subjugated to both, with transitions from both atlases to a smaller atlas being affine. A manifold having a distinguished affine structure is called an **affine manifold** and the charts which are affinely related to those of the affine structure are called **affine charts**. In each affine coordinate domain the coordinate vector fields form a parallelisation of that domain, so there is an associated connection on each domain. These locally defined connections are the same on overlapping parts, so there is a unique connection associated with an affine structure. Note there is a link between linear connection (also called affine connection) and a web.
## Formal definition {#formal_definition}
An **affine manifold** $M\,$ is a real manifold with charts $\psi_i\colon U_i\to{\mathbb R}^n$ such that $\psi_i\circ\psi_j^{-1}\in \operatorname{Aff}({\mathbb R}^n)$ for all $i, j\, ,$ where $\operatorname{Aff}({\mathbb R}^n)$ denotes the group of affine transformations. In fancier words it is a (G,X)-manifold where $X=\mathbb R^n$ and $G$ is the group of affine transformations.
An affine manifold is called **complete** if its universal covering is homeomorphic to ${\mathbb R}^n$.
In the case of a compact affine manifold $M$, let $G$ be the fundamental group of $M$ and $\widetilde M$ be its universal cover. One can show that each $n$-dimensional affine manifold comes with a developing map $D\colon {\widetilde M}\to{\mathbb R}^n$, and a homomorphism $\varphi\colon G\to \operatorname{Aff}({\mathbb R}^n)$, such that $D$ is an immersion and equivariant with respect to $\varphi$.
A fundamental group of a compact complete flat affine manifold is called **an affine crystallographic group**. Classification of affine crystallographic groups is a difficult problem, far from being solved. The Riemannian crystallographic groups (also known as Bieberbach groups) were classified by Ludwig Bieberbach, answering a question posed by David Hilbert. In his work on Hilbert\'s 18-th problem, Bieberbach proved that any Riemannian crystallographic group contains an abelian subgroup of finite index.
### Complex affine manifolds {#complex_affine_manifolds}
An *affine complex manifold* is a complex manifold that has an atlas whose transition maps belong to the group of complex affine transformations, that is, have the form $z \mapsto A \cdot z + c$ where $n$ is the (complex) dimension of the manifold, $c\in \mathbb C^n,$ and $A$ is an invertible $n \times n$ matrix with complex entries. In other words, it is a `{{tmath|(G, X)}}`{=mediawiki}-manifold where $X=\C^n$ and $G$ is the group of complex affine transformations of $\C^n.$
## Important longstanding conjectures {#important_longstanding_conjectures}
Geometry of affine manifolds is essentially a network of longstanding conjectures; most of them proven in low dimension and some other special cases.
The most important of them are:
- Markus conjecture (1962) stating that a compact affine manifold is complete if and only if it has parallel volume. Known in dimension 2.
- Auslander conjecture (1964) stating that any affine crystallographic group contains a polycyclic subgroup of finite index. Known in dimensions up to 6, and when the holonomy of the flat connection preserves a Lorentz metric. Since every virtually polycyclic crystallographic group preserves a volume form, Auslander conjecture implies the \"only if\" part of the Markus conjecture.
- Chern conjecture (1955) The Euler class of an affine manifold vanishes

# Ramón Grosso
**Ramón Moreno Grosso** (8 December 1943 -- 13 February 2002) was a Spanish football forward and manager.
He spent 12 La Liga seasons with Real Madrid, appearing in 366 competitive matches (75 goals scored) and winning 11 major titles, including the 1966 European Cup.
## Club career {#club_career}
Born in Madrid, Grosso reached Real Madrid\'s youth system at the age of 15. He returned after a short loan at neighbouring Atlético Madrid where he was instrumental in avoiding relegation from La Liga in the 1963--64 season, going on to remain 12 years at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium.
Even though his teammates included the likes of Amancio Amaro, Francisco Gento or Ferenc Puskás, Grosso was team top scorer in his first two seasons, scoring 17 goals from 28 appearances in 1964--65 and 11 in 29 in the following. He made his debut in the European Cup on 23 September 1964, scoring in the 5--2 away win over Boldklubben 1909.
In the following years, Grosso played in several positions for Real Madrid, even being placed as goalkeeper in the Ramón de Carranza Trophy match against Boca Juniors. For his \"team-first\" approach he was eventually dubbed *Obrero* (worker), and he left his main club in June 1976 at the age of 32, retiring from football subsequently.
Grosso continued to work with Real in the following decades, as a manager: he started in the youth sides, then worked as head coach with Real Madrid Castilla in two separate Segunda División campaigns (23 games in 1986--87 and one in 1996--97, suffering relegation in the latter), and finally as assistant to the main squad; on 24 March 1991, following the dismissal of Alfredo Di Stéfano and before the appointment of Radomir Antić, he acted as interim to the latter in a 1--1 home draw with Real Oviedo.
## International career {#international_career}
Grosso won 14 caps for Spain in three years. His debut occurred on 1 February 1967 in a 0--0 draw against Turkey at the Ali Sami Yen Stadium for the UEFA Euro 1968 qualifiers, and he scored in the second contest between the two teams, a 2--0 victory in Bilbao.

# Herbert Purves
**Herbert Dudley Purves** `{{post-nominals|country=NZL|CMG|size=85%}}`{=mediawiki} (25 September 1908 -- 15 April 1993) was a New Zealand academic, medical researcher and scientist.
## Biography
He was educated at Hastings West Primary School and Napier Boys\' High School. Purves\' academic strengths showed early as he received prizes for Science in the third form, for Mathematics in the fourth form, and for Latin, Mathematics and Science in the lower 6th. He won the Isabella Siteman scholarship, which was awarded to the highest ranking Hawkes Bay student who did not make the Scholarship list. The scholarship required Purves to study science or medicine at the University of Otago. In 1926, he travelled to Dunedin to study physics, chemistry and mathematics. He majored in chemistry, earning a BSc in 1928 and an MSc with first-class honours in chemistry in 1931.
Purves\' working life was spent in full-time medical research at the University of Otago Medical School in Dunedin. He began in 1932, as a research assistant to Sir Charles Hercus, then Professor of Bacteriology and Public Health.
Purves was later supported by funds from a Medical Research Council grant for research into thyroid problems, administered by a committee headed by Sir Charles Hercus. Hercus encouraged Purves to take the Medical course, which he did between 1935 and 1941 when he graduated MB/ChB. In 1941 Purves became Principal Research Officer and Director of the New Zealand Medical Research Council\'s Thyroid Research Department in Dunedin which later became the Endocrinology Research Unit. In 1968, the Unit became the Laboratory of Experimental Endocrinology and Metabolism, and in 1971, the Neuroendocrinology Group. Purves played a leading role in the abolition of thyroid enlargement (goitre) which once disfigured nearly 20% of the population.
Purves\' merits were recognised by his colleagues in Dunedin who made him President of the University of Otago Medical Research Society in 1955 and upon his retirement, a life member of the Society. The endocrinologists of New Zealand elected him President of the New Zealand Society of Endocrinology from 1963 to 1968, and his colleagues abroad conferred on him the title of Distinguished Thyroid Scientist at the seventh International Thyroid Conference in 1975.
## Honours and awards {#honours_and_awards}
In 1967, Purves was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of New Zealand. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Australasian College of Physicians in 1970, and in 1972 he was conferred with an honorary DSc by the University of Otago.
In the 1974 Queen\'s Birthday Honours, Purves was appointed a Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George, for services to medicine. In 1987, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary celebration of the Medical Research Council the governor-general, Sir Paul Reeves, presented Purves with a special silver medal in recognition of his outstanding contribution to medical research.
## Death
He died on 15 April 1993, aged 84, after a long illness.
## Family
Purves married Daphne Helen Cowie in 1939. She survived him as did their two daughters and one son

On 16 October 1922, Pope Pius XI named him titular archbishop of Thebes and Apostolic Internuncio to Central America, which then covered Costa Rica, El Salvador, Honduras, and Nicaragua. He received his episcopal consecration from Cardinal Pietro Gasparri, the Vatican Secretary of State, on 1 November 1922. He was named Apostolic Internuncio to Panama as well on 21 September 1923 even as his responsibilities toward other countries in Central America continued. On 9 May 1925, Pope Pius appointed him Apostolic Delegate to Turkey.
During his diplomatic service in Bulgaria, he saved many Bulgarian Jews by issuing them baptismal certificates and safe conducts for the trip to Palestine.
## Nuncio to Hungary {#nuncio_to_hungary}
On 20 March 1930, Pope Pius named him Apostolic Nuncio to Hungary, a position he held for fifteen years.
As Papal Nuncio representing Pope Pius XII in Hungary, Rotta actively protested Hungary\'s mistreatment of the Jews, and helped persuade Pope Pius XII to lobby the Hungarian leader Admiral Horthy to stop their deportation. According to historian of the Holocaust Martin Gilbert, \"With Arrow Cross members killing Jews in the streets of Budapest, Angelo Rotta, the senior Vatican representative in Budapest, took a lead in establishing an \"International Ghetto\", consisting of several dozen modern apartment buildings to which large numbers of Jews - eventually 25,000 - were brought and to which the Swiss, Swedish, Portuguese, and Spanish legations, as well as the Vatican, affixed their emblems.\"
Rotta also got permission from the Vatican to begin issuing protective passes to Jewish converts - and was eventually able to distribute more than 15,000 such protective passes, while instructing the drafters of the documents not to examine the recipients\' credentials too closely. A Red Cross official asked Rotta for pre-signed blank identity papers, to offer to the sick and needy fleeing the Arrow Cross, and was given the documents with Rotta\'s blessing. Rotta encouraged Hungarian church leaders to help their \"Jewish brothers\", and directed Fr Tibor Baranszky to go to the forced marches and distribute letters of immunity to as many Jews as he could.
In 1944 - 1945 Rotta contributed greatly to the saving action of the Neutral Powers (Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the Vatican) and the International Red Cross Committee in Budapest (initiated by Carl Lutz, and led, among others, by Giorgio Perlasca, Friedrich Born, Raoul Wallenberg, Angel Sanz Briz). As the Dean of the Diplomatic Corps, he vehemently protested several times to the Hungarian Governments against the Jewish Deportations.
On 15 November 1944, the Hungarian Government established the \"Big Ghetto\" for 69,000 Jews, while a further 30,000 with protective documents went to the International Ghetto. On 19 November 1944, the Vatican joined the four other neutral powers - Sweden, Spain, Portugal and Switzerland - in a further collective protest to the Hungarian Government calling for the suspension of deportations of the Jews. The government complied, and banned the \"death marches\" - but Budapest was by that stage near anarchy, and deportations continued from 21 November. The Arrow Cross continued their orgy of violence, raiding the international Ghetto and murdering Jews, as Soviet forces approached the city. Rotta and Wallenberg were among the few diplomats to remain in Budapest. Following the Soviet conquest of the city, Wallenberg was seized by the Russians and taken to Moscow, from where he was never released. Gilbert wrote that of the hundred and fifty thousand Jews who had been in Budapest when the Germans arrived in March 1944, almost 120,000 survived to liberation - 69,000 from the Big Ghetto, 25,000 in the International Ghetto and a further 25,000 hiding out in Christian homes and religious institutes across the city.
## Post-war {#post_war}
Rotta retired from diplomacy in 1957.
Pope Paul VI paid him a surprise visit at his Vatican residence on Easter Sunday in March 1964.
He was recognized as Righteous among the Nations by Yad Vashem in 1997.
In 2010 a section of embankment on the Buda side of the river Danube in Budapest (between Margaret Bridge and Batthyány Square) was named *Angelo Rotta rakpart* (\"Angelo Rotta embankment\") in his honour

# Pierino Prati
**Pierino Prati** (`{{IPA|it|pjeˈriːno ˈpraːti}}`{=mediawiki}; 13 December 1946 -- 22 June 2020) was an Italian footballer who played mainly as a forward. He began his career with Salernitana, and later played for several other Italian clubs, including a successful spell with AC Milan, with whom he won several titles. As of 2024, he is the second to last person to score a hat-trick in a European Cup final, having done so in 1969 against Ajax.
At international level, Prati represented Italy on 14 occasions between 1968 and 1974, scoring seven goals; he was a member of the teams that won UEFA Euro 1968 on home soil, and which reached the 1970 FIFA World Cup final. He also had a brief spell with Rochester Lancers in the NASL in 1979.
## Club career {#club_career}
Also known as \"Pierino the pest\", Prati began his career playing in Serie C1 with Salernitana, winning the title and promotion to Serie B during the 1965--66 season. He is mostly remembered for his highly successful and prolific stint with Italian club AC Milan under manager Nereo Rocco in the 60s and 70s, during which he achieved great international and domestic success, winning a Serie A title, a European Cup, two Cup Winners\' Cups, an Intercontinental Cup, and two Coppa Italia titles, forming an excellent partnership with Gianni Rivera.
He made his Serie A debut with the club during the end of the 1965--66 season, on 18 September 1966, in a 2--1 win over Venezia, but was briefly loaned to Serie B club Savona during the 1966--67 season. He later helped Milan to win the 1967--68 Serie A title, finishing the season as the top goalscorer in the Italian league, with 15 goals. He was also notably part of their European Cup victory in 1969, scoring a hat-trick in the 4--1 defeat of Ajax in the final, and six goals in total throughout the competition. As of 2023, he is the last man to have scored a hat-trick in the European Cup/Champions League final. Ferenc Puskás (twice) and Alfredo Di Stefano (both of Real Madrid) are the only other players to have achieved this.
Overall, he played for 12 seasons (233 games, 100 goals) in the Italian Serie A with Milan, Roma and Fiorentina. He also played for Savona once again in Serie C2 in his later career, as well as the Rochester Lancers in the NASL.
## International career {#international_career}
Prati also played for the Italy national team. He was most notably a member of the Italian side that won the 1968 UEFA European Football Championship on home soil, during which he made his debut on 6 April, scoring a goal in a 3--2 loss against Bulgaria in the first leg of the quarter-finals, and another in the 2--0 victory in the return leg. He played the first final match alongside Pietro Anastasi, but was replaced by Gigi Riva in the re-match, the striker who would often keep him on the bench for Italy. With his national team, Prati also reached the final of the 1970 FIFA World Cup, losing out to Brazil. In total, he was capped 14 times for the national side between 1968 and 1974, scoring 7 times.
## Style of play {#style_of_play}
A talented and opportunistic player, with an eye for goal, Prati was capable of playing anywhere along the front-line, as a striker, supporting forward, and as a winger. At Milan, he was often deployed on the left wing due to his pace, technique, distribution, and was also known for his powerful and accurate shot from both inside and outside the penalty area, as well as his ability in the air.

Sources:
: --- Nuvolari and Borzacchini did not receive the points for first and second place, respectively, because they were not driving in their designated cars. The seven points apiece that they received were for driving car #28, which completed less than a quarter of the race distance. Attilio Marinoni and Goffredo Zehender, who had been designated to drive cars #26 and #30, respectively, both received eight points, since they did not take part in the race.
: --- Ruggeri and Balestrero were initially credited with 1290.534 km, putting them in sixth place. However, their final lap took more than five minutes to complete, so the fraction of the lap completed prior to the ten-hour mark was eliminated, demoting the pair to seventh, and promoting Pirola and Lurani to sixth.
: --- Sénéchal and Frètet were not classified because they failed to complete at least three-fifths of the number of laps achieved by the race winner.
**Notes:**
- The race was limited to ten hours. Each driver was allowed to complete a lap begun before the ten-hour cutoff (and retain the fraction of the lap already completed), provided that the lap took no more than five minutes

# Angelo Anquilletti
**Angelo Anquilletti** (`{{IPA|it|ˈandʒelo aŋkwilˈletti}}`{=mediawiki}; 25 April 1943 -- 9 January 2015) was an Italian football defender. A tough yet fair player, Anquiletti was a successful right-sided full-back, who was known for his strength, energy, work-rate, positioning, marking ability, anticipation, and his ability to read the game; he also excelled in the air and was confident on the ball and at distributing it to teammates, which also enabled him to be deployed as a sweeper towards the end of his career. He is mostly remembered for his lengthy spell with AC Milan and for being a member of the Italian UEFA Euro 1968 winning squad. Anquiletti was known by the fans as \"Angelo Anguilla\" (Angelo the Eel), due to his man-marking ability, and wore the number 2 shirt throughout his successful Milan career.
## Club career {#club_career}
Anquiletti Started his career in Serie D with Solbiatese during the 1964--65 season. In 1964 he played with Atalanta in Serie A, making his debut on 16 November 1964, at the age of 21, in a 1--0 away win over Cagliari; he remained at the club for two seasons. From 1966 to 1977 played for AC Milan, where he achieved notable success, forming an impressive defensive line-up during his 11 seasons with the club alongside Cudicini, Trapattoni, Rosato, and Schnellinger, which was nicknamed the *Maginot Line*. He was notably part of their European Cup victory in 1969, also winning the 1967--68 Serie A title, two European Cup Winners\' Cups (1967--68 and 1972--73), the 1969 Intercontinental Cup, and four Coppa Italia titles (1966--67, 1971--72, 1972--73, 1976--77). He notably scored two goals against Levski Sofia in the first leg of the first round of the victorious 1967--68 edition of the European Cup Winners\' Cup. Overall, he made 418 appearances for Milan, and is the club\'s ninth all-time appearance holder; 278 of his appearances came in Serie A, 71 in the Coppa Italia, 63 in European Competitions, and 6 in other competitions. He ended his career with Monza, spending 2 more seasons in Serie B before retiring in 1979, at the age of 36.
Overall, he played 326 games in the Serie A for Atalanta and Milan, and 41 games in Serie B, although he was unable to score a goal in the Italian leagues throughout his career.
## International career {#international_career}
Anquiletti earned 2 caps for the Italy national football team, and was part of Italy\'s UEFA Euro 1968 squad that won the tournament on home soil under Valcareggi, despite not making an appearance throughout the cup. He made his international debut in January 1969, in a friendly tournament in Mexico which preceded the 1970 FIFA World Cup, making his only two appearances for Italy against Mexico that year. He struggled to find space in the national side due to the presence of Tarcisio Burgnich and Fabrizio Poletti in his role.
## Death
Anquiletti died on 9 January 2015, at the age of 71, after struggling with a long illness.

# Stages: The Lost Album
***Stages*** is an album by folk rock musician Eric Andersen. The album was recorded in late 1972 and early 1973, as the intended follow-up to Andersen\'s successful *Blue River* album, but before it could be released, the master tapes were somehow lost in the Columbia vaults. It wasn\'t until 1990 that the tapes were discovered, at which time the album was finally released. In addition to the original 1972--73 recordings, Andersen included three newly recorded songs. Guest musicians from the 1973--73 sessions included Leon Russell on organ, piano and guitar, Rick Danko on bass and background vocals, and Garth Hudson on accordion, with Dan Fogelberg and Joan Baez supplying background vocals. Shawn Colvin was a guest vocalist on the 1990 sessions.

# Saul Malatrasi
**Saul Malatrasi** (`{{IPA|it|ˈsaul malaˈtraːzi}}`{=mediawiki}; born 17 February 1938) is an Italian former football player and coach who played as a defender
## Club career {#club_career}

# Eddy Pieters Graafland
**Eduard Laurens Pieters Graafland** (5 January 1934`{{spnd}}`{=mediawiki}28 April 2020) was a Dutch professional football player and coach. As a player, he was the goalkeeper of Ajax, Feyenoord and the Netherlands. In 1970, his last season as a professional, he won the Europa Cup with Feijenoord. In total, he was capped for the national team 47 times.
His nickname was, after his abbreviated surname, *Eddy PG*. He was a renowned penalty stopper, and kept a notebook with potential penalty takers\' favorite side.
## Career
At the age of eleven he became a member of Ajax. Twelve was the minimum age, but his father was a board member, which gave him priority. At the age of seventeen, in 1951, he made his debut in Ajax\'s first team. In the mid-1950s, Pieters Graafland fulfilled his military service in Arnhem. From that moment on he practiced for a year with the first team of Vitesse. After his military service he returned to Amsterdam. On 28 April 1957, Pieters Graafland made his international debut for the Netherlands against Belgium (1--1).
In 1958, Pieters Graafland left for Feijenoord for the, at that time, record sum of 134,000 guilders. He experienced his greatest success in 1970; his final year as a player. That season, he was initially benched by Feijenoord coach Ernst Happel as first goalkeeper and replaced by Eddy Treijtel. Happel made him the starter for the Europa Cup final against Celtic. Initially, Pieters Graafland did not want to play this match: \"You haven\'t seen me all season. I\'m not doing it,\" was his initial reaction, allegedly. He changed his decision later and partly thanks to his goalkeeping work, Feyenoord won the final 2--1. It was his last official game in professional football.
## Outside football {#outside_football}
After his playing career he started a trade in promotional and business gifts. Pieters Graafland\'s hobby was making amateur film images. Parts of the films he made during his sporting career were regularly broadcast in various sports programs on television. He shot the images of Jan Janssen\'s Tour de France victory in 1968. In 1999, he was voted the third Dutch goalkeeper, after Hans van Breukelen and Edwin van der Sar, in the election of European goalkeeper of the twentieth century organized by the International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS).
Pieters Graafland was a knight in the Order of Oranje-Nassau. In 2017, he and his wife Teddy celebrated their diamond wedding.
## Death
He died on 28 April 2020, at the age of 86

# The Action Design
**The Action Design** was an American rock band formed in Petaluma, California, after the breakup of the former punk rock band Tsunami Bomb. Emily Whitehurst and Matt McKenzie came together to produce a new band self-described as \"a refreshing mix of the band\'s punk rock roots infused with hard hitting dance rhythms and catchy basslines wrought with think memorable vocal hooks\". In January 2011, on their official Facebook page, the band announced its members are currently focusing on other musical projects rather than The Action Design.
While the original line-up consisted of McKenzie, Whitehurst and drummer Brett Friesen; Brett was replaced shortly after the release of their first EP at the end of 2006. Taking over drumming duties would be Jake Krohn, formerly of The Rum Diary; also added to The Action Design crew would be Jaycen McKissick, formerly of Pipedown, on guitar. With the addition of Krohn and McKissick, The Action Design would complete their line-up. In order to begin touring and playing shows as soon as possible, they enlisted Bobby from the band Kiev to fill in on keyboards for their first tour as a band on the 2007 Warped Tour. The band later began playing their set as a foursome without Bobby who returned to his work with his band. Each band member began pulling double duty; picking up the keyboard parts on their respective instruments. The Action Design released a limited edition EP with only 1000 pressings in the fall of 2006 and quickly sold out without having played a single show. This version of the EP was recorded when the band was still a three piece and did not feature much guitar work (if any on most of the recordings). It also contained the song \"Move On\" which was later omitted from the Popsmear released version of the E.P. \"Into a Sound\". This original pressing was completely self-published, with all of the artwork hand-printed and numbered by the band.

Their first album *Never Say* was released in 2008.
