# Viktor Pfeifer
**Viktor Pfeifer** (born May 16, 1987) is an Austrian former competitive figure skater. A nine-time Austrian national champion, he has placed as high as eighth at the European Championships (2013) and has competed three times at the Winter Olympics, placing 22nd in 2006, 21st in 2010 and 26th in 2014.
## Career
In the 2002--03 season, Pfeifer won Austria\'s senior national men\'s title for the first time. The following season, he began competing on the ISU Junior Grand Prix series.
In 2004--05, Pfeifer competed in his second JGP season and finished 12th at the 2005 World Junior Championships. He also made his senior international debut at the 2005 European Championships, where he was 18th. He then placed 23rd at his first senior World Championships.
In 2005--06, Pfeifer again began his season on the junior level, placing fifth in both of his JGP events. He then competed on the senior level at the 2005 Karl Schäfer Memorial, the final opportunity for countries to qualify an Olympic entry. His placement, fifth, gave Austria a spot in the 2006 Olympic men\'s event. Pfeifer won his third senior national title and was sent to the Olympics where he placed 22nd. He ended his season at the 2006 World Championships, finishing 26th.
In 2006, Pfeifer moved from Austria to train in Aston, Pennsylvania. Two years later, he began training under Priscilla Hill at the Skating Club of Wilmington in Wilmington, Delaware. He stated that Austrian skating officials disagreed with his decision to train abroad and his funding dried up, leading him to consider no longer competing for the country. He was not sent to any ISU Championships in 2007 and 2008.
Pfeifer returned to international competition in autumn 2008. He placed tenth at the 2008 Nebelhorn Trophy and fifth at the 2008 Karl Schäfer Memorial before taking his fourth national title. He was 29th at both the 2009 European Championships and 2009 World Championships.
The final opportunity to qualify for the 2010 Winter Olympics was the 2009 Nebelhorn Trophy in September. Pfeifer placed fifth and earned a spot for Austria in the men\'s event in Vancouver. Austria consequently resumed funding his training. After winning his fifth national title, Pfeifer was sent to the 2010 European Championships where he placed 17th. He then competed at the 2010 Winter Olympics, placing 21st. His final event of the season was the 2010 World Championships where he was 20th.
In the 2012--13 season, Pfeifer was eighth at the European Championships, the best European result of his career. He then placed 20th at the 2013 World Championships, earning a spot for Austria in the 2014 Olympic men\'s event.
Pfeifer began coaching at The Skating Club of Wilmington when he was still a competitive skater. He retired from competition on May 27, 2014.
## Personal life {#personal_life}
Pfeifer began playing the cello as a child and attended a music conservatory in Austria before deciding to focus on skating. He studied business management and economics at the University of Delaware.

# John Terry (miller)
**John Terry** (21 January 1771 -- 8 July 1844) was an early settler and pioneer farmer in New Norfolk, Tasmania.
Born in Askrigg in the Yorkshire Dales, he was the eldest son of John Terry of The Mill, Redmire and Grace Green. The Terrys also had milling and other interests in Bedale, Forcett and Askrigg.
He married Martha Powell on 12 July 1797 and continued in the family milling business until, in October 1818, John and Martha, their eight daughters, three sons and two millstones sailed from Sheerness, England on the *Surrey*, the only \"free\" settlers on a convict ship to Sydney, Australia.
Possibly unhappy with the terms of the lease and the size of the allotment at Liverpool, south-west of Sydney, Terry moved his family and business to Van Diemen\'s Land. Arriving in Hobart Town on the *Prince Leopold* on 6 December 1819, the family proceeded to build the mill on 100 acres (40 ha) at Elizabeth Town (soon to be renamed New Norfolk), where the Derwent and Lachlan Rivers met.
By the end of 1820 Terry was grinding wheat on what was now known as the \'Lachlan River Mill\'. Further to this he took up a grant of 1,400 acres (567 ha) at nearby Macquarie Plains (later renamed Gretna). This property he called \'Askrigg\', named after the village of his birth. In 1827 he purchased \'Slateford\', a property at Hayes.
In about 1822, on the \'Lachlan River Mill\' estate, Terry built a granary; circa 1830 the family built the house that was to later be named \'Tynwald\'; and, after introducing hops to the estate in the 1860s, John\'s youngest son Ralph built an Oast house. All three buildings still stand to this day.
Terry\'s letters back to England provide an insight into thoughts many early migrants must have experienced, looking with wonder at a land very foreign to them. In a letter written in 1822 he described some of his first impressions.
> \'Wild duck in great numbers as many as 200 or 300, rise at once. Black swans and land quails, wild pidgeons coloured like a peacock, and fish in great plenty ... Trees here cast a shell of bark, not leaves. Wood, when cut green, sinks in the water like a stone. Your shortest day is our longest, so you summer when our winter. The cuckoo cries in the night, and mostly in our winter the man in the moon is with his legs upwards\'.
John Terry died at his home on 8 July 1844. The millstones that accompanied him from Yorkshire now sit outside St Matthew\'s Close in New Norfolk. A window dedicated to John and Martha Terry appears amongst the impressive stained glass windows of St Matthew\'s Anglican Church in New Norfolk. It bears a line from the letter quoted above. The line he wrote next suggests confidence that it was worth the effort.
> *\'I threw off my coat and rose with the sun wrought all that came to hand*. I now thank God and consider myself and my family in a very comfortable position\'

# Gentiana catesbaei
***Gentiana catesbaei***, commonly called **Elliot\'s gentian**, **American gentian**, or **bottle gentian**, is a wildflower native to the eastern North America. It grows in the swampy areas from Virginia to Florida and has showy, pale blue flowers which appear in the late fall from September to December.
It shares the common name \"bottle gentian\" with several other species.
## Uses
The Catawba American Indians were known to use the Elliott\'s gentian for medicinal purposes. They would steep the roots in hot water and then use the produced liquid to soothe sore backs. This is not surprising as the European gentian, *G. lutea*, has been used as a digestive tonic and was listed in the United States Pharmacopeia from 1820 to 1995 as a gastric stimulant. In fact, the very name of the genus is derived from Gentius, a king of Illyria who recognized the tonic properties of the plant

# Propeller Island
***Propeller Island*** (*L\'Île à hélice*) (also published as ***The Floating Island, or The Pearl of the Pacific**\'\', and as***The Self-Propelled Island**\'\') is a science fiction novel by French author Jules Verne (1828--1905). It was first published in 1895 as part of the Voyages Extraordinaires. It relates the adventures of a French string quartet in Milliard City, a city on a massive ship in the Pacific Ocean, inhabited entirely by millionaires.
## Plot
A French string quartet (Sébastien Zorn, Frascolin, Yvernes and Pinchinat), traveling from San Francisco to their next engagement in San Diego, is diverted to Standard Island.
There is also a comic interlude when they arrive at night and are being ignored after playing good music. So they intentionally play out of tune, getting an immediate response.
Standard Island is an immense man-made island designed to travel the waters of the Pacific Ocean. The wealth of residents of the island can only be measured in millions. The quartet is hired to play a number of concerts for the residents during their tour of the islands (Sandwich, Cook, Society) of the South Pacific.
The island seems an idyllic paradise; however, it is an island pulled between two factions. The left half\'s population is led by Jem Tankerdon and is known as the Larboardites. The right half\'s population is led by Nat Coverley and is known as the Starboardites.
The company that created the island goes bankrupt, but the rich individuals on board buy it out. And initially they continue to accept the leadership of the man appointed by the company.
Various obstacles encountered on their journey, But things get serious when the original commander is killed, and the two faction leaders each want to succeed. They try to coopt a former king as a compromise candidate, but he refuses. This threatens the future of the island itself.

## English versions {#english_versions}
In October, 1896 Sampson Low (London) published the novel as *The Floating Island, or The Pearl of the Pacific*, translated by W. J. Gordon, with 80 illustrations. While Gordon was an accomplished translator, boy\'s author, and literary figure with an accurate translation of Verne\'s *The Giant Raft* to his credit, the dark social commentary of *Propeller Island* did not sit well with his publishers, and numerous alterations in the text were made. As Arthur B. Evans notes:
Gordon\'s translation was also used for the only fully illustrated American edition of the book, published in November 1897 by W. L. Allison. Other publishers were Hurst and Company and the Donahue Brothers.
In 1967 Sidgwick and Jackson (London) published an abbreviated version of the work in the *Fitzroy Edition* as *Propellor Island*. In 1990, Keegan Paul (US) republished the Allison edition of *The Floating Island* without illustrations and with an introduction by Kaori O\'Connor.
In 2015, Professor Marie-Thérèse Noiset of the University of North Carolina translated the book complete with the previously excised passages. Unusually, Verne\'s original was written in the present tense, but Noiset\'s release delivered the story in the past tense, which is the most common narrative time used in the writing of fiction. She explained, \"In order for my translation to read smoothly, the Pacific Islands encountered in the novel have been given their present-day names, the measurements given by Verne have been converted from the metric system to the English system, and the narration has been translated into the past tense.\" Michael Orthofer critiqued the edition at his Complete Review website, writing that the original was \"apparently one of the first examples of a novel written in the third-person and the present tense -- yet surely these should count as additional reasons to try to recreate that in English\...\" Professor Arthur Bruce Evans of DePauw University reviewed the Noiset translation favorably, describing her prose as an example of \"\[t\]he fine art of translating---blending textual faithfulness with discursive fluidity\...\" Evans noted the \"regrettable lack of illustrations\" in the 2015 edition, as compared to the Verne octavo which held approximately 80 illustrations by Léon Benett

# Piangil
**Piangil**, once frequently spelled \"Pyangil\", is a town in the Mallee region of northern Victoria, Australia. It is approximately 382 km north-west of the state capital, Melbourne and 46 km north-west of the regional centre of Swan Hill. At the `{{CensusAU|2016}}`{=mediawiki}, Piangil and the surrounding rural area had a population of 259.
The name of the town is derived from the Piangil pastoral run, taken up in 1846 by William Coghill. It is thought that the name was derived from an Aboriginal word for the Murray cod.
Piangil post office opened on 17 June 1907, and was renamed Piangil North in 1918 when the Piangil post office was relocated adjacent to the railway station. A new Piangil post office opened in 1921 and is still in operation.
Piangil Primary School closed in September 2015.

# Nouvelle Résistance
**Nouvelle Résistance** (**NR**) was a French far-right group created in August 1991 by Christian Bouchet as an offshoot of *Troisième Voie* (Third Way), which was headed by Bouchet. Dissolved in 1997, NR described themselves as \"national revolutionary\" and part of the National Bolshevism international movement. It succeeded to the *Troisième voie* and Jeune Europe, a movement created in the 1960s by Jean-François Thiriart.
NR was both anti-Communist and anti-capitalist as well as ecofascist. In 1989, then general secretary of the Troisième Voie, Christian Bouchet stated that there were two possible alternatives: either present themselves as a \"National Revolutionary wing/margin of the National Front\" or present itself as a \"contest movement\" which supported \"all forms of contest (regional, ecologic, social, popular,\" etc. The NR first decided to oppose the National Front \"reactionary right\" and enacted a policy of \"the peripheries against the center,\" advocating for the creation of an \"anti-establishment front,\" and rejecting left/right division. Bouchet then stated that this strategy had failed, and advocated alliance with Jean-Marie Le Pen\'s National Front, on a \"Less Leftism! More Fascism!\" slogan.
It also supported state secularism and anti-clericalism, and opposed United States cultural imperialism. Practicing a politic of entryism explicitly inspired by the Trotskyists, the NR also infiltrated the national direction of the deep ecology movement Earth First. NR was also anti-Zionist. They transformed themselves in the Union des cercles résistance in Autumn 1996 during its third congress held in Aix-en-Provence; the Unité radicale movement was created from this

# Petey Greene
**Ralph Waldo** \"**Petey**\" **Greene, Jr.** (January 23, 1931 -- January 10, 1984), was an American television and radio talk-show host. A two-time Emmy Award-winner, Greene overcame drug addiction and a prison sentence for armed robbery to become one of the most prominent media personalities in Washington, D.C. On his shows, Greene often discussed issues such as racism, poverty, drug usage, and current events among others.
## Early life {#early_life}
Born **Ralph Waldo Greene, Jr.** in Washington D.C., the son of Ralph Waldo Greene, Sr. and Jacqueline Abernathy Greene, he was raised by his maternal grandmother, Margaret \"Maggie\" Floyd, who he referred to as \"A\'nt Pig\" (Aunt Pig).
Greene attended Stevens Elementary School and Cardozo Senior High School in Washington. He dropped out of high school in the ninth grade and enlisted in the United States Army at age 16 in 1947. He served in the Korean War as a medic and was honorably discharged from service in 1953.
In January 1960, Greene was convicted of armed robbery in Washington and sentenced to ten years imprisonment at Lorton Reformatory in Fairfax County, Virginia. There he became the prison disc jockey, which made him popular and well-liked by fellow prisoners. His loquaciousness soon proved beneficial in other ways; in May 1966, Greene persuaded a fellow inmate to climb to the top of the prison water tower and threaten suicide, so that Greene would be able to \"save his life\" by talking him down. \"It took me six months to get him to go up there,\" he later recalled on his talk show. This act, combined with his generally good behavior, earned him a reduction in his prison sentence and parole the following week.
## Career
In the summer of 1966, Greene was hired by Dewey Hughes to work as a disc jockey at AM radio station WOL/1450 and to host his own show. *Rapping With Petey Greene* aired in the Washington Metropolitan Area throughout the late 1960s and early 1970s. His prominence grew, and soon he was hosting his own television show, *Petey Greene\'s Washington*, with a six-year run from 1976 to 1982 on WDCA/20. This show won two Emmy Awards. On March 8, 1978, he was invited as a guest to the White House by United States President Jimmy Carter to honor visiting Yugoslavian President Josip Broz Tito. He famously quipped to the *Washington Post* that he \"stole a spoon\" during the evening gala.
In 1981, Greene had radio personality Howard Stern on his show for what was one of Stern\'s first television appearances. Stern appeared on the show in blackface, which Greene found funny. The audio of this interview was eventually played as part of the 2007 Sirius satellite radio documentary *The History of Howard Stern*, in which Stern called Greene \"way ahead of his time\". The two shared a mutual admiration, as they both dealt with such controversial subjects as race and politics, with Stern since recognizing him as an influence. Stern later called Greene a \"broadcasting genius\" in his 1993 book *Private Parts*.
## Activism
Aside from being a radio personality and talk show host, Greene was also a community activist, joining the United Planning Organization and founding the Ralph Waldo Greene Community Centre and Efforts for Ex-Convicts. This organization remains devoted to helping former prisoners succeed in legitimate ways and to advocate prison reform. He rallied against poverty and racism on his shows and on the streets, participating in demonstrations during the height of his popularity. Following the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in April 1968, and during the subsequent riots that erupted throughout the United States, Greene made statements on air that were credited with helping quell the riots in Washington, D.C.
## Death
Greene was diagnosed with liver cancer in 1982. As a result of his failing health, his career as a radio and television personality ended. Greene died on January 10, 1984, thirteen days before his 53rd birthday. He was survived by his wife, Judy C. Greene, and their four children: Ralph Waldo III (affectionately known to family as Pine), Petra, Renee, and Melanie. Approximately 10,000 mourners lined up outside Union Wesley AME Zion Church to pay their last respects.

Greene\'s autobiography, *Laugh If You Like, Ain\'t a Damn Thing Funny*, was published in 2003. The book is a result of conversations recorded between Greene and author Lurma Rackley.
Greene was portrayed by Don Cheadle in the 2007 film *Talk to Me*, which was inspired by his life and career.
Greene was also profiled in a 2009 episode of the PBS series *Independent Lens* entitled \"Adjust Your Colour: The Truth of Petey Greene\"

# Raingutter regatta
The **raingutter regatta** is a racing event for Cub Scouts in the Boy Scouts of America that is the sailboat equivalent of the pinewood derby.
The sailboat kit consists of a seven-inch (178 mm) long balsa wood hull, a `{{frac|6|1|2}}`{=mediawiki}-inch mast, plastic sail, plastic rudder, and metal keel. Within the basic design rules, Scouts are free to paint and decorate their sailboats as they choose. Modifications for speed include the placement of the keel and rudder and the size, shape and location of the sail. A catamaran is an exceptionally fast design, although this modification is not allowed in all races.
## Racing
The boats are raced in a standard rain gutter that is ten feet long, placed on a table or saw horses, and filled to the top with water. The boats are propelled by blowing on the sail, either directly or through a drinking straw; the boat cannot be touched with hands or the straw. The first boat to reach the end of the gutter is the winner. The overall winner is determined by an elimination system

# Kakuji Kakuta
, was an admiral in the Imperial Japanese Navy during World War II. He is noted for his role in commanding Japanese naval aviation units in the Pacific War.
## Biography
Kakuta was a native of rural Minamikanbara, Niigata Prefecture, Japan. He graduated from the 39th class of the Imperial Japanese Navy Academy, scoring 45th out of a class of 145 cadets in 1911. He served as midshipman on the cruiser `{{Ship|Japanese cruiser|Aso||2}}`{=mediawiki} and battlecruiser `{{Ship|Japanese battlecruiser|Ibuki||2}}`{=mediawiki}. On commissioning as ensign, he was assigned to the cruiser `{{Ship|Japanese cruiser|Chiyoda||2}}`{=mediawiki}. Later, as a lieutenant, he served on the battleship `{{Ship|Japanese battleship|Settsu||2}}`{=mediawiki} and the cruiser `{{Ship|Japanese cruiser|Azuma||2}}`{=mediawiki} during World War I. He then served on the battleship `{{Ship|Japanese battleship|Kirishima||2}}`{=mediawiki}, destroyer `{{Ship|Japanese destroyer|Yanagi|1917|2}}`{=mediawiki}, and was chief gunner on the cruisers `{{Ship|Japanese cruiser|Suma||2}}`{=mediawiki} and `{{Ship|Japanese cruiser|Tenryū||2}}`{=mediawiki}.
Kakuta was appointed as equipment officer on the cruiser `{{Ship|Japanese cruiser|Yubari||2}}`{=mediawiki} in 1923. He then attended the 23rd class of the Naval Staff College, and was promoted to lieutenant commander upon graduation. In 1926, he served as chief gunner on the cruiser `{{Ship|Japanese cruiser|Furutaka||2}}`{=mediawiki} and subsequently in a number of staff positions. His first command was the cruiser `{{Ship|Japanese cruiser|Kiso||2}}`{=mediawiki}, beginning on 10 March 1934. He subsequently commanded cruisers *Furutaka* and `{{Ship|Japanese cruiser|Iwate||2}}`{=mediawiki}, and battleships `{{Ship|Japanese battleship|Yamashiro||2}}`{=mediawiki} and `{{Ship|Japanese battleship|Nagato||2}}`{=mediawiki}. He was promoted to rear admiral on 15 November 1939.
At the start of the Pacific War in December 1941, Kakuta was in command of Carrier Division 4, consisting of the aircraft carrier `{{Ship|Japanese aircraft carrier|Ryūjō||2}}`{=mediawiki}, which provided air support for landings of Japanese forces in the Philippines. Kakuta also participated in the Indian Ocean Raid against British bases in India and Ceylon in early 1942.
During the Battle of Midway in June 1942, Kakuta commanded a task force consisting of carriers `{{Ship|Japanese aircraft carrier|Ryūjō||2}}`{=mediawiki} and `{{Ship|Japanese aircraft carrier|Jun'yō||2}}`{=mediawiki} that conducted air raids against Dutch Harbor as part of the initial stages of the Aleutian Islands Campaign.
Later, as commander of the Second Carrier Striking Force that included aircraft units assigned to carriers `{{Ship|Japanese aircraft carrier|Jun'yō||2}}`{=mediawiki} and `{{Ship|Japanese aircraft carrier|Zuikaku||2}}`{=mediawiki}, Kakuta directed aircraft operations against U.S. naval forces during the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands and the Naval Battle of Guadalcanal.
Kakuta was promoted to vice admiral on 1 November 1942. Following the death of Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, the new Commander in Chief of the Combined Fleet, Mineichi Koga, restructured the Imperial Japanese Navy around the American carrier task force concept. On 1 July 1943, Kakuta was assigned command of the First Air Fleet which included all land-based naval aircraft units located throughout the Philippines and Japanese-held islands in the central Pacific. However, the squadrons suffered massive aircraft and personnel losses from American carrier raids in February 1944. Under Kakuta\'s direction from his headquarters on Tinian, many of the remaining aircraft units participated in the Battle of the Philippine Sea in June 1944, but were unable to play a decisive role, suffering further heavy losses.
Kakuta was the senior military officer on the island during the Battle of Tinian although he was not directly responsible for the defenses. As the Americans closed in on Tinian, Kakuta and his staff made repeated efforts to escape in rubber boats at prearranged rendezvous with a Japanese submarine. After several failed attempts, Kakuta and his staff withdrew to a cave on the east coast of Tinian and were never seen again. It is presumed that Kakuta committed suicide soon after the Americans landed and that his body was buried in a secret location by members of his staff

# Nobody's Boy: Remi
is a 1977--1978 Japanese anime series by Tokyo Movie Shinsha and Madhouse. The story is based upon French author Hector Malot\'s 1878 novel *Sans Famille*. It follows a young boy who works for a travelling group of players in the hope of earning money and seeing his foster family again. The anime is well known in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Latin America, especially Mexico, Canada (in French), France, the Netherlands, Italy, the Arab world, Indonesia, Russia and the Philippines.
A film version by the same studio and director was released in 1980.
In the Philippines, the anime was originally shown between 1979 and 1980 on RPN, but like the other contemporary anime broadcast in the same period (*Candy Candy*, *Heidi*, etc.), the full story was not shown. It was only after nearly twenty years that it was shown in full, under the title *Remi* on ABS-CBN, this time in Tagalog. ImaginAsian attempted to make the show available in America through on-demand DVD, but with no success. AnimEigo has licensed the show and will release it on Blu-ray in 2025.
In Mexico, the entire series was shown several times in the 1980s, with several generations experiencing and knowing the story as part of their upbringing. The same happened with *Candy Candy* and *Heidi* in that Latin American country, although Remi is possible the best known, as it was shown by the dominant TV station of the time, at the daily afternoon cartoon segment, between 4 and 7 pm, which was one of the 1980s traditions that all Mexican kids knew and enjoyed.
In the Netherlands, it was broadcast between 1979 and 1980 by AVRO and in 1996 by the EO. The AVRO version was released on DVD.
In 1996, a new adaptation of this story was aired in Japan. `{{nihongo|''[[Remi, Nobody's Girl]]''|家なき子レミ|Ie Naki Ko Remi}}`{=mediawiki} was created by Nippon Animation as part of their *World Masterpiece Theater* series.
In 1995, *Nobody\'s Boy: Remi* was also broadcast by RCTI.

Born in Hong Kong to parents of Shanghainese descent, Cheung appeared in her first advertisement at the age of three.
She was born in a scholarly family in Hong Kong in 1963, her original name was Zhang Rongfang (章蓉舫).

Located on the campus of the University of North Dakota, in Grand Forks, North Dakota, the museum is a private not-for-profit institution. The building includes three exhibition galleries, a video information room, cafe, and gift shop. Admission is free.
## History
The museum was formed in the 1970s as the **University of North Dakota Art Galleries**.
In 1981, the North Dakota Legislative Assembly designated the museum as the state\'s official art museum and the museum took on its present name.

# Waller Hall
**Waller Hall** is a building on the campus of Willamette University in Salem, Oregon, in the United States. Opened in 1867 as **University Hall**, it is the oldest higher-education building west of the Mississippi River still in use, currently housing the university\'s administrative offices.
Built in the Renaissance style of architecture, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. The building has been gutted twice by fires with the interior rebuilt each time, and went through renovations in 1987 to 1989 and again in 2005.
## History
### Background
Due to a variety of factors, including the deterioration of the main campus building dating from 1844 and the need for additional space, the university considered building a new building designed specifically for the university beginning in the 1850s. Then on October 3, 1860, the board of trustees for the school resolved to begin the process of building a new primary hall to be used by the university. Reverend Alvin F. Waller was placed in charge of the efforts to raise the funds needed for a building. However, this was unsuccessful and on November 19, 1862, the board again passed a resolution calling for a new structure and forming a committee of Waller, Gustavus Hines, Josiah Lamberson Parrish, J. Lamson, and John H. Moores to prepare plans.
On December 2, the trustees authorized subscriptions to be solicited and paid to Waller with a goal of \$20,000. On May 20, 1863, the board met again and learned that \$12,800 had been pledged and the board then set up a building committee of Waller, Hines, Moores, E.N. Cook, and Thomas Milton Gatch. It was mainly through the efforts of the Reverend Waller that the hall was built. Several designs were then considered for the new building, and on February 22, 1864, by a vote of 16 to 1 the board selected the final plan that called for a brick building with a stone foundation. The foundation was to rise to a level 3 ft above the ground to prevent moisture from the ground seeping into the bricks.
### Construction
Construction of the new building began in February 1864 with excavation of the basement. This was on the north section of Willamette\'s campus in downtown Salem. Then on July 24, the cornerstone of the building was laid into place in a ceremony. The President of the Board of Trustees, David Leslie, laid the cornerstone of the hall. This ceremony included a time capsule and a speech by Governor A. C. Gibbs.
All of the bricks used in the construction were fired on campus using clay excavated from the construction site in order to build the foundation. The builders ordered 500,000 bricks total for the construction project. Construction was completed in 1867 and the building was named University Hall. The school \"marched\" from the old school building to the new and began using it on October 21, 1867.
Total costs for the building were \$40,000 at occupation with a need for approximately an additional \$17,000 to finish and furnish the building. The building was first used for classrooms, a library, parlors, recitation rooms, and some physical education in the attic. Also in the early years the structure housed the chapel services of the school, and some temporary accommodations for students.

## History
### Later years {#later_years}
The old school building, the Oregon Institute, burned down in December 1872 leaving University Hall as the only building on campus. As a result, all departments were housed in the building including the College of Law from 1884 to 1923 when it moved to Eaton Hall and the Medical School from 1867 until 1880 when it moved to Portland. University Hall remained the only permanent campus building from 1872 when the Oregon Institute building burned down until 1906 when the Medical Building (now Art Building) was built. Other school buildings such as the first Lausanne Hall were located off campus.
On September 16, 1891, University Hall, the school\'s first brick building, caught on fire. As a result of the fire the top two floors of the building as well as the roof were destroyed. The building was then re-built after the 1891 fire, but unlike the original plans it was constructed with a Mansard style roof. Additionally, a square tower was also built on top in lieu of the original cupola which included a school bell. From its construction until 1987, Waller Hall was used as an academic hall and hosted classes along with housing the school\'s chapel and as offices for the faculty.
In 1912, Willamette renamed the building in honor of the Reverend Alvan (Alvin) F. Waller who was instrumental in getting the hall built. Then on December 17, 1919, another fire swept through Waller Hall while school was on break for Christmas. This second fire completely gutted the five-story building, but the exterior walls remained intact. The Mansard roof and square tower were destroyed in the fire. The university rebuilt the hall the following year, and used the original plans that included the round cupola but omitted the Mansard style roof and the square tower topping the structure. Architect Fred A. Legge oversaw the rebuilding and re-design of the hall. A campaign launched in 1920 by the university was set to raise \$100,000 to be used for the reconstruction of Waller, plus completing the new Lausanne Hall and adding a central heating plant.
There was some discussion of demolishing the hall in the 1980s after the structure had become dilapidated. One proposal called for building a replica on the same site as the original, but school administrators opted to renovate Waller Hall. From November 1987 to November 1989 the 25000 sqft building went through a \$2.26 million renovation. This renovation addressed interior issues with the building including seismic upgrades in the event of a large magnitude earthquake. These renovations also turned the attic into an office suite for the school\'s president. After renovations in 1988 the building was used for university administration offices. Further renovations were completed in 2005 at a cost of \$1.3 million for upgrading the 100-year-old windows to newer energy efficient models, repairing the brick, fixing leaks, installing skylights, re-painting, and slightly lightening the exterior red-brick coloring.
## Architecture
Waller Hall was built in the Renaissance style of architecture. This red brick building was designed in the same proportions as a Greek cross. Bishop Janes was responsible for proposing this use of the cross shape for the building. Each of the two wings is 84 ft long and 44 ft wide with aedicule porches on the west, east, and north ends of the building. Originally, the building was 100 ft tall as measured from the base of the building to the top of the dome. The distance from the eaves of the structure to the base is 50 ft. The basement of the building is 12 ft high and the first floor 16 ft high. The foundation is made of stone and the roof has composition shingles. Both the second and third floors are 12 ft tall. The hall has a cupola topping the structure. Other details include pilasters, dentils, and brick corbelling on the exterior and circular stairways on the interior.

## Currently
Waller Hall houses alumni relations, the school\'s business office, human resources for the university, the office of communications, university relations, the President\'s office, and other administrative functions. Additionally, Cone Chapel is on the building\'s second floor and seats 300. Cone Chapel features over a dozen stained glass windows and a classic pipe organ. The chapel is occasionally used for commencement ceremonies, lectures, and concerts at the school. Waller Hall sits in the north central part of campus directly opposite of the Oregon State Capitol. The structure is the oldest university building west of the Mississippi River still in use in the United States.
In 1992, during the university\'s sesquicentennial, the United States Postal Service issued a postal card that featured an image of Waller Hall. Featuring a watercolor painting by George C. Warner of Eugene, Oregon, these 19 cent postcards were part of the Postal Service\'s Historic Preservation Series

# Fullerton Police Department
The **Fullerton Police Department** of Fullerton, California, was established in 1904 when the city was incorporated. The Fullerton Police Department currently employs 153 sworn officers and 78 civilian employees. It has a budget of about \$54.7 million. The current chief is Jon Radus. The department has a Uniform Division, a Service Division, and a Detective Division all commanded by officers in the rank of captain.
## History
In April 2003, press reports indicated that two unnamed Fullerton police officers were suspended without pay for 60 hours while two more senior supervisors were suspended for 12.5 hours. The officers had been called to an address because of a possible suicide of a woman. One officer squatted next to the unconscious victim, passed wind and remarked, \"This ought to wake her up.\" The second officer climbed into bed with the woman and pretended to lick her.
On the night of March 17, 2010, a number of Fullerton police personnel arrested an unnamed college student. The student filed a complaint that the police threatened him, broke his fingers, and tortured him before stealing his iPod and \$140. An internal investigation by the department confirmed that Officer Cary Tong had in fact violated department policy and broke the man\'s finger.
On June 1, 2010, Fullerton police conducted a lineup of assault suspects on a local street. The victim sat in a police car about 25 feet from the three men and identified the one she thought had attacked her. The police then arrested Emmanuel Martinez instead of the man she indicated. Martinez was held in jail for five months until the matter was sorted out.
In the same month, Officer Kenton Hampton objected to Edward Quinonez observing him conduct a traffic stop. He arrested Quinonez claiming he was intoxicated. In the course of the arrest, Quinonez was injured in the head. hospital reports and taped evidence showed he was not intoxicated. In July 2013, the city agreed to pay the man \$25,000 to settle the matter. Officer Hampton was present at the death of Kelly Thomas in July but was not charged.
On the night of October 20, 2010, Fullerton police officers burst into the house of Robyn Nordell without warning. They had entered the wrong house while looking for someone. The four officers did not report the mistake to the police department for five days. The matter was settled out of court. In October of the next year, the police chief publicly apologized.
In June 2011, press reports indicated that a Fullerton police officer, Kelly Janeth Mejia had been arrested at Miami International Airport after stealing an iPad at a security checkpoint. The officer was placed on paid leave by the department. She was fired in October, although the department would not make a public statement as to why she was discharged. She admitted her guilt in court in February 2012 and was sentenced to pay \$100 in court costs, a \$250 charitable donation and a requirement to attend a \"theft class.\" In July 2011, Fullerton police officer Todd Alan Major pleaded guilty to two charges involving embezzlement and theft to fuel his drug habit. He was sentenced to six months in jail.
In August 2011, Officer Alber Rincon was the subject of a federal lawsuit by two women claiming the officer sexually attacked them in the back seat of his police car. On July 9, the department informed the officer they intended to fire him. At this point, he was no longer to allowed to wear his badge. The city later moved to settle the case. U.S. District Judge Andrew J. Guilford wrote that \"Requiring Rincon to attend \'pat-down\' training is a weak sauce that does nothing to hide the unpleasant taste of complicity\...At the end of the day, the City put Rincon back onto the streets to continue arresting women despite a pattern of sexual harassment allegations.\"
In 2011, Fullerton police responded to reports of a man trying to break into cars. They encountered Kelly Thomas, 37, a local mentally ill transient. Thomas was an unarmed local homeless man who was beaten by six officers and stunned six times with a taser. Thomas died five days later. That same year, two officers were charged, and were acquitted of all charges in 2014.
In January 2012, press reports indicated the Fullerton Police Department was the subject of a lawsuit concerning tow trucks in the city. The suit claimed that officers systematically harassed and intimidated tow truck drivers from companies not preferred by the department.
In March 2012, press reports indicated a Fullerton police corporal was charged with destroying his digital audio recorder after the apparent jailhouse suicide of a person he had arrested. Corporal Vincent Thomas Mater detained Dean Francis Gochenour for driving under the influence and took him to the Fullerton jail. Two hours later Gochenour was found hanging dead in his holding cell. When it was found Mater\'s recording device had been damaged, he was placed on paid leave and later fired. In November 2012, Mater pleaded guilty to misdemeanor counts of destruction of property and vandalism and was sentenced to probation.

While born in Carona in Canton Ticino and died in Lugano, both in Switzerland, Petrini belongs to the Northern Italian or Lombard heritage of baroque painting. He possibly apprenticed with Bartolomeo Guidobono after 1700. While some works can be found in Como and Bergamo, most are located in Lugano and the surrounding area. He is also listed between 1711 and 1753 as *fabbriciere* of the church of Madonna d'Onegro in Carona. He often painted \"portraits\" of historical figures including saints, philosophers, and scientists for patrons. One of his more prominent examples is his depiction of an auster *St. Peter* emerging from the shadows to pinpoint some lines in the gospel. He painted another *St. Peter* for the parish church of Dubino. Pietro Ligari classified him among the *speculative* painters, since these portraits, by nature, were imagined

# Waterhouse Natural Science Art Prize
The **Waterhouse Natural Science Art Prize**, formerly the **Waterhouse Natural History Art Prize**, is a biennial competition for artists, with a science theme, organised by the South Australian Museum in Adelaide, South Australia.
## History
The prize was established in 2002 and named after Frederick George Waterhouse, who was the first curator of the Museum. He discovered 40 new species of fish along the SA coastline, collected plants, insects, reptiles, birds and mammals and was an avid naturalist. The annual competition changed its name to \"Waterhouse Natural Science Art Prize\" in 2013. It offered a total prize pool of `{{AUD|77,000}}`{=mediawiki} in that year.
The competition was not held in 2015 due to a consultative review on the nature of the competition. However, a retrospective exhibition, *Magnified: 12 years of the Waterhouse Natural Science Art Prize*, exhibiting all winners thus far, took place at the National Archives of Australia (NAA) in Canberra.
It was held again in 2016, and has been held biennially since then.

# Sugaree
\"**Sugaree**\" is a song with lyrics by long-time Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter and music by guitarist Jerry Garcia. It was written for Jerry Garcia\'s first solo album *Garcia*, which was released in January 1972. As with the songs on the rest of the album, Garcia plays every instrument himself except drums, played by Bill Kreutzmann, including acoustic guitar, bass guitar, and an electric guitar played through a Leslie speaker. Released as a single from the *Garcia* album, \"Sugaree\" peaked at #94 on the *Billboard* Hot 100 in April 1972 and was Garcia\'s only single ever on that chart.
The song was first performed live by the Grateful Dead on July 31, 1971, at the Yale Bowl at Yale University, as was the song \"Mr. Charlie\". They played the song in numerous other concerts, including those later released as *Dick\'s Picks Volume 3* and *One from the Vault*.
## Predecessors
Elizabeth Cotten, the North Carolina folksinger, wrote and recorded a song called \"Shake Sugaree\" in 1966. The chorus of Cotten\'s song is \"Oh lordie me/Didn\'t I shake sugaree?\" Hunter was aware of this song when he wrote \"Sugaree

### Woodside Township {#woodside_township}
**Woodside Township** was a township that existed in Essex County, New Jersey, United States, from 1869 to 1871. Woodside was incorporated as a township by an Act of the New Jersey Legislature on March 24, 1869, from portions of Belleville Township On April 5, 1871, almost two weeks after its second anniversary, the township was dissolved, and its territory was absorbed by Belleville and Newark.
### Cockloft Hall {#cockloft_hall}
In the early 1800s Washington Irving, his oldest brother William, James Kirke Paulding a few friends formed a group known as the \"Lads of Kilkenny\", described as "a loosely knit pack of literary-minded young blades out for a good time." When they weren\'t spending time at the Park Theatre or the Shakespeare Tavern at the corner of Nassau and Fulton Streets in Lower Manhattan, they gathered at an old family mansion on the Passaic River in Woodside which Gouverneur Kemble had inherited and which they called \"Cockloft Hall\". For a short time they produced Salmagundi, a periodical.
### Rail stations {#rail_stations}
Woodside Station, near the intersection of Grafton Avenue & Oraton Street, was a stop on the Erie-Lackawanna Railroad Newark Branch. There was a small railroad green, snack bar & ticket station next to the tracks. Passenger service was discontinued in 1966, although freight service, operated by Norfolk Southern Railroad as the Newark Industrial Track, remained active for a time and served several local industries.
The North Newark station, with service provided by the Erie Railroad\'s New York and Greenwood Lake Railway and later by NJ Transit\'s Boonton Line was located on Broadway. The right of way is a planned state park, the Essex--Hudson Greenway.

# War in the North
The **War in the North** (*Ofensiva del Norte*) was a theatre of the Spanish Civil War that occurred in northern Spain from 31 March to 21 October 1937.
The Nationalists launched a number of offensives into parts of the Basque Country, Santander (Cantabria), and Asturias that formed an enclave loyal to the Republican government. The Biscay Campaign from March to July saw the bombing of Guernica and Durango and resulted in the Republicans losing the Basque Country after the Battle of Bilbao. The Nationalists captured Santander in September after the Battle of Santander and launched the Asturias Offensive against the last northern Republican stronghold in eastern Asturias. The Battle of El Mazucu saw fierce Republican resistance against Nationalist attacks and possibly the first use of carpet bombing against a military target. The War in the North ended when the Nationalists broke through the Republican lines and captured the city of Gijón at the end of October.
## Background
In July 1936, upon the Nationalist takeover of Navarre, their leader General Emilio Mola had announced a war of annihilation against the Second Spanish Republic and no mercy to any dissent. Harsh repression started to be implemented against those blacklisted, who were Navarrese individuals and their families. By late August, the *Requeté*, a pro-Nationalist Carlist militia from Navarre, advanced towards Irun in the Basque Country with a mission to cut off Republican forces in Gipuzkoa from the France--Spain border. In September, after the fall of Irun and then of San Sebastián, the Nationalists led by Francisco Franco launched a campaign in Gipuzkoa and cut off the Republican-controlled areas in northern Spain from the border with France. That area had been already isolated from the rest of Spain by Nationalist control at the beginning of the war.
Northern Spain was very attractive to the Nationalists because of the industrial production of Biscay and the mineral resources of Asturias. Control of the area would be profitable because of its valuable resources and it could force a two-front war. The resources of iron, coal, steel and chemicals were a tempting target. Furthermore, its major supplies came by sea, which was controlled by the Nationalist navy. The north being such a heavily industrialised region made it a stronghold for far-left politics and therefore the Republic. However, the northern Republicans were also politically divided and weakened by struggles between leftists and Basque nationalists, who mostly supported the Republic across the political sprectrum due to better chances for Basque autonomy. Franco realised that the capital Madrid was not going to be conquered quickly after a number of Nationalist offensives on the city and the surrounding area had failed. Franco ordered his commanders on the Madrid front to go on the defensive and to send all available resources to the north. Republican forces attempted to establish a front at Buruntza. Eventually, the front stabilised temporarily on the western fringes of Gipuzkoa (Intxorta) in October 1936, when the Basque Statute of Autonomy was passed in Madrid, and the Basque government was rapidly organised. As the Nationalists advanced, tens of thousands of panicking civilians from the occupied areas fled towards Bilbao.
## Biscay Campaign {#biscay_campaign}
On 31 March 1937, the Nationalists began a campaign to capture the province of Biscay in the Basque Country with 50,000 men of the 61st Solchaga against the Spanish Republican Army\'s Army of the North commanded by General Francisco Llano de la Encomienda. The same day of the Nationalist offensive, the *Legión Condor* bombed the town of Durango with 250 civilian deaths. The Navarrese troops attacked the town of Ochandiano, and on 4 April, occupied it only after heavy combat. Mola then decided to stop the advance because of bad weather. On 6 April, the Nationalist government in Burgos announced the blockade of the Basque ports, but some British ships entered Bilbao. On April 20, the Nationalists continued their offensive and occupied Elgeta after a heavy artillery bombardment. The same day, the *Legion Condor* bombed the town of Guernica. The Basques retreated to Bilbao\'s Iron Ring, and on 30 April, the Italian Corps of Volunteer Troops occupied Bermeo, but the Nationalist battleship *España* was sunk by a mine.
The Republican government decided to send 50 aircraft of the Spanish Republican Air Force to Bilbao and launched the Huesca Offensive and the Segovia Offensive to stop the Nationalist advance, but both failed. On 3 June, Mola was killed in an airplane crash and replaced by Fidel Davila. On 12 June, the Battle of Bilbao began when the Nationalists started their assault of the Iron Ring and, after heavy aerial and artillery bombings, they entered the city on 19 June, completing their conquest of the Biscay and the Basque Country.
## Battle of Santander {#battle_of_santander}
After the fall of Bilbao, the Republican government decided to launch an offensive against Brunete on 6 July to stop the Nationalist offensive in the north, but the offensive had ended by 25 July. The Republican troops in Santander Province (Cantabria) had low morale, though the Basque soldiers did not want to stop fighting. On 14 August, the Nationalists launched their offensive against Cantabria, with the 90,000 men (25,000 of whom were Italian) and 200 aircraft of the Army of the North. On 17 August, the Italians occupied the El Escudo Pass and encircled 22 Republican battalions at Campoo. On 24 August, the Basque troops surrendered to the Italians at Santoña, which led to the Santoña Agreement, and the Republican troops fled from Santander. On 26 August, the Italians occupied the city of Santander, and by 1 September, the Nationalists had occupied almost all of Cantabria. The Nationalists captured 60,000 prisoners, the greatest number during the war.

# War in the North
## Asturias Campaign {#asturias_campaign}
The Nationalists decided to continue their offensive into Asturias after the failed Republican offensive against Zaragoza. Eastern Asturias was a Republican stronghold and the last piece of Republican-held territory in the north. The Nationalists had overwhelming numerical and material superiority, with 90,000 men against 45,000 and more than 200 aircraft against 35, but the Republican Army in Asturias was better organised than in Santander and the difficult mountainous terrain would provide excellent defensive positions. The Battle of El Mazuco saw 30,000 Navarrese troops led by Solchaga and supported by the *Legion Condor* try to break through into eastern Asturias. This involved the widespread use of carpet bombing against Republican positions, in possibly one of its first uses against military targets in warfare. The El Mazuco valley and the critical nearby mountains (Peña Blanca and Pico Turbina), which were held by 5,000 Republican soldiers, fell to the Nationalists only after 33 days of bloody combat.
On 14 October, the Nationalists broke the Republican front and, on October 17, the Republican government ordered the evacuation of Asturias to begin. However, Nationalist ships were blockading the Asturian ports, and only the few military commanders Adolfo Prada, Francisco Galán, and Belarmino Tomas managed to escape. By 21 October, the Nationalists had occupied Gijón and completed the conquest of the northern zone.
## Aftermath
With the conquest of northern Spain, the Nationalists controlled 36% of Spanish industrial production, 60% of the coal production and all of the steel production. Furthermore, more than 100,000 Republican prisoners of war were forced to join the Nationalist army or were sent to labour battalions. The Republic had lost the Army of the North (more than 200,000 soldiers), and by then, a complete military victory of the Republic in the war became impossible. Franco then decided to start a new offensive against Madrid, but Vicente Rojo Lluch, the leader of the Republican Army, launched a diversionary offensive in Aragon, resulting in the Battle of Teruel

# Rotorua Airport
**Rotorua Airport** (*Taunga Rererangi o Rotorua*) `{{airport codes|ROT|NZRO}}`{=mediawiki} is an airport in Rotorua, New Zealand. It is located on Te Ngae Road (SH30) in the suburb of Rotokawa, approximately 6 km north east of Rotorua CBD. The terminal consists of a two-storey building with six tarmac gates and is home to a cafe, book store and conference room. There are general aviation hangars located to both the north and the south of the main terminal, as well as an avgas pump at the southern end of the apron. The airport\'s main runway (18R/36L) is 2114m long and is sealed with asphalt. There is also a shorter grass runway (18L/36R) which runs parallel to the main runway, although the proximity of the two runways means that they can\'t be used simultaneously.
Currently, the airport is served by Air New Zealand\'s regional subsidiaries with flights to Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch. A number of charter and scenic airlines also operate from the airport on a regular basis. In the past, the airport has been served by a number of airlines on domestic routes including Ansett New Zealand, Origin Pacific Airways and Qantas. Qantas services were withdrawn in 2009 when Jetstar took over domestic flying from its parent. The airport received international services for the first time in December 2009 when Air New Zealand began flights from Sydney, although this service ended in April 2015 due to lack of demand.
## History
Rotorua Airport opened in 1964, with a 1378m x 30m sealed runway that could accommodate National Airways Corporation\'s Douglas DC-3 and Fokker F27 aircraft. It replaced the old Whakarewarewa Aerodrome, which was located just north of Sala Street in what is now a residential area. In 2002, an extension to the southern end of the airport\'s runway brought its total length to 1622m. Plans to further increase the main runway\'s length in two stages, initially by 150 metres at the northern end followed by 487 metres at the southern end (including newly mandated overrun areas), were approved in 2008 after a lengthy consultation process and court battle. The initial increase in length would allow operations by Airbus A320 aircraft to Australia, albeit with capacity restrictions, and the subsequent southern extension would allow these aircraft to serve the airport without capacity restrictions. The project was completed in 2009 and brought the combined length of the runway and overrun areas to 2,304 metres. These extensions, in conjunction with the already-completed upgrade of the terminal building and facilities, made the airport capable of handling international flights to Australia. Following the upgrade, Air New Zealand announced that it would begin flights between Rotorua and Sydney on 12 December 2009, the service being partially funded by the Rotorua District Council. To coincide with the introduction of international flights, the airport was renamed Rotorua International Airport.
The flights across the Tasman initially operated twice weekly (on Tuesdays and Saturdays), but dropped to one flight a week during off-peak months before winter services were suspended entirely in 2014. In October 2014, the Rotorua District Council decided, in conjunction with Air New Zealand, to stop subsidising the service as they felt that the amount they were funding, which equated to around \$1 million per year, could be better spent on other initiatives. Therefore, it was announced that flights to Sydney would cease, and the final international flight from the airport was on 25 April 2015. Following the discontinuation of international flights, the airport stated that it was going to focus on strengthening domestic routes and was specifically interested in initiating non-stop flights to Queenstown.
## Controversy
The expansion of Rotorua Airport to an international airport has encountered both strong opposition and support from locals. Critics cite concern over on-going debt servicing and operating costs, anticipated noise levels, the destruction of natural forest and privately owned planted trees to accommodate the newly lowered flight path, and potential safety issues. The Ngāti Uenukukopako tribe, whose marae is located at the northern end of the runway, have taken a complaint to the New Zealand Human Rights Commission, and residents at the southern end of the runway continue to resist the Airport Company\'s programme to enforce cutting of trees which have been a longstanding feature of the area

# The Top (short story)
"**The Top**" (German: "Der Kreisel") is a short story by Franz Kafka, likely written between 1917 and 1923. It concerns a philosopher\'s futile attempt to understand the world.
## Plot summary {#plot_summary}
A philosopher believes that he could understand everything in the world if he were to understand a single element in it. To this purpose, he tries to catch a child\'s top as it spins, hoping that it would continue spinning in his hand, but it always stops the moment he grabs it.
## Interpretation
The top could be seen as a symbol of the spinning earth - the populated world which the philosopher tries to understand. The irony implied herein is that by focusing on the top itself, the philosopher ignores the other forces that set it in motion - the children and the string.
Some critics have noted a correspondence between the structure and theme of the story - the spiraling movement of the top is echoed by the spiraling structure of the story, as the sentences are at first of uniform length, then get gradually longer until the last line which is meandering and prolonged, like the top\'s last staggering spin and final collapse.
## Comic adaptation {#comic_adaptation}
A comics adaptation of the story, illustrated by Peter Kuper, is included in *Give It Up!*

# Neaira (hetaera)
**Neaira** (`{{IPAc-en|n|i|ˈ|aɪ|r|ə}}`{=mediawiki}; *Νέαιρα*), also **Neaera** (`{{IPAc-en|n|i|ˈ|ɪər|ə}}`{=mediawiki}), was a hetaera who lived in the 4th century BC in ancient Greece. She was brought to trial between 343 and 340 BC, accused of marrying an Athenian citizen illegally and misrepresenting her daughter as an Athenian citizen.
The speech made against Neaira in this trial by Apollodorus is preserved as Demosthenes\' fifty-ninth speech, though the speech is often attributed to Pseudo-Demosthenes, who seems to have worked on many of the speeches given by Apollodorus. The speech provides more details than any other about prostitutes of antiquity, and consequently a great deal of information about the sex trade in ancient Greek city-states (polis).
## Speech *Against Neaira* {#speech_against_neaira}
*Against Neaira* is the source of most of the details of Neaira\'s biography. It concerns a case brought against Neaira when she was about fifty by Apollodorus\' son-in-law Theomnestus, though apart from a brief introduction of the case given by Theomnestus, Apollodorus delivered the entirety of the speech. The case revolves around the accusation that Neaira, a foreigner, married an Athenian citizen, and that she was attempting to pass off her own children as Athenian citizens.
While the speech revolves around the life of Neaira, this is of little importance to the substance of the accusations. The details seem to be part of the speech in the hope that the salacious accusations will hide the weakness of Apollodorus\' case. The accuracy of the evidence given in the speech has been questioned, and is known to contain both lies and inaccuracies. Despite this, the speech tells us much about the life of an accomplished hetaera, and is extremely valuable to historians as a source on women\'s lives in classical Greece. Indeed, it is the most reliable extant source on prostitution in the classical world and one of the best sources on women\'s lives and gender relations in general for the period.

## Biography
### Life with Nikarete {#life_with_nikarete}
Neaira was probably born in the first decade of the fourth century BC. Her place of birth is unknown, and the earliest event in her life that we know of is her purchase when she was a young girl by Nikarete. Nikarete trained the girls she purchased to be hetaerae, calling them her daughters in order to increase the price her customers would pay, and lived with them in Corinth.
Neaira\'s work as a prostitute started before she reached puberty. She is twice described by Apollodorus as having sex for money before she came of age, though possibly due to her age he implies that she was not yet a hetaera. During this time, the orator Lysias was a prominent guest in Nikarete\'s brothel and a regular customer of Metaneira, another of Nikarete\'s girls. In order to reward her for her services, he arranged for her to be initiated into the Eleusinian Mysteries, and funded the journey. Neaira was at this time about twelve or thirteen, and Nikarete accompanied them. Neaira visited Athens again for the Great Panathenaea of 378, this time accompanying Simus of Thessaly, a young aristocrat.
### Leaving Nikarete and Corinth {#leaving_nikarete_and_corinth}
Around 376 BC, Timanoridas of Corinth and Eukrates of Lefkada paid thirty minae to purchase Neaira from Nikarete, at the high end of prices for hetaerae. When the men married, they agreed to let Neaira buy her freedom for twenty minae, which, with the aid of gifts and loans from her former customers, she did. As part of this deal, Neaira agreed to no longer work as a prostitute in Corinth, and so left the city for Athens with Phrynion, who had helped her buy her freedom.
Neaira was certainly living with Phrynion in Athens by 373 BC, when he took her to a feast given by the general Chabrias to celebrate his victory in the Pythian Games. During this celebration, Apollodorus says, Neaira was sexually assaulted by the guests and slaves of Chabrias while she was drunk and asleep. Due to this and other mistreatment by Phrynion, in 372 BC Neaira left his household and went to Megara, taking with her her clothing and jewellery, two maids, and other possessions belonging to Phrynion.
### Life with Stephanus {#life_with_stephanus}
In Megara, Neaira continued to work as a hetaera, and in 371 met Stephanus. Stephanus offered to act as her patron if she returned with him to Athens. Apollodorus claims that with her she brought two sons and a daughter to Athens, but modern commentators have largely concluded that the sons in question were in fact those of Stephanus, by an Athenian woman. Indeed, Christopher Carey points out that one of the sons, at least, was probably a legitimate son of Stephanus, being named after his father, and John Buckler notes that Apollodorus contradicts himself on whether Neaira\'s alleged sons were hers by another man, or hers by Stephanus.
Phrynion learnt that Neaira was back in Athens, and attempted to take her back from Stephanus. Stephanus resisted, claiming that as Neaira was a free woman he had no right; a claim which Phrynion proceeded to challenge in court, though he was persuaded to settle the case by arbitration instead. The arbitrators decided that Neaira was indeed free, and that in addition to this she was her own *kyria* (mistress); this was an extremely unusual decision in a society where all citizen women, at least, had a *kyrios* (master). Despite this unusual level of freedom, however, Neaira was compelled to split her time between the two men as they agreed, without any input herself.
### Trial
Sometime between 343 and 340 BC, Neaira was brought to trial by Theomnestus on behalf of his father-in-law Apollodorus, accused of *xenias* (representing herself as a citizen when in fact she was not). If she was convicted, the maximum penalty Neaira faced was being sold into slavery and having her property sold. Neaira herself would not have been permitted to speak at her trial, though she was probably present.
The only surviving record of the trial is the speech given by Theomnestus and Apollodorus against Neaira and Stephanus, and the outcome is unknown. No records of Neaira exist after the trial. Modern commentators have noted the weaknesses in Apollodorus\' arguments, though as the outcome of an Athenian trial depended heavily on what the parties involved could persuade the jury to accept, and how much of their dishonesty they could get away with, it cannot be said for certain that the suit failed

# Bus garage
A **bus garage**, also known as a **bus depot**, **bus base** or **bus barn**, is a facility where buses are stored and maintained. In many conurbations, bus garages are on the site of former car barns or tram sheds, where trams (streetcars) were stored, and the operation transferred to buses. In other areas, garages were built to replace horsebus yards or on virgin sites when populations were not as high as now.
## Description
Most bus garages will contain the following elements:
- Internal parking
- External parking
- Fueling point
- Fuel storage tanks
- Engineering section
- Inspection pits
- Bus wash
- Brake test lane
- Staff canteen/break room
- Administration office
Smaller garages may contain the minimum engineering facilities, restricted to light servicing capabilities only. Garages may also contain recovery vehicles, often converted buses, although their incidence has declined with the use of contractors to recover break-downs, and the increase in reliability.
Overnight, the more valuable or regularly in-service buses will usually be stored in the interior of the garage, with less used or older service vehicles, and vehicles withdrawn for storage or awaiting disposal, stored externally. During the day, internal and external areas will see a variety of movements. Heritage vehicles are almost exclusively stored inside the garage.
Often garages will feature rest rooms for drivers assigned to \'as required\' duties, whereby they may be required to drive relief or replacement buses in the event of breakdown. The garage may also have \'light duties\' drivers, who merely move the buses internally around the garage, often called shunting. Shunter or light duty drivers are often employed in larger depot facilities and work night shifts in order to position buses in the correct order for morning departures from the depot with the first buses due to leave the depot parked logical order nearest the exit. Because they are driving on privately owned land in many jurisdictions a full bus licence may not be required to perform such tasks. In addition they may also perform other tasks such as cleaning buses, refuelling and light maintenance tasks.
## United Kingdom {#united_kingdom}
Several bus companies such as London Buses and Lothian Buses used to operate multiple storage garages around their operating area, supplemented by a **central works** facility. Central works have declined with increase in sub-contract engineering, and improvements in mechanical reliability of bus designs. Also, the practice of routine mid-life refurbishment of bus fleets has declined, which has resulted in generally shorter service lives.
Bus garages will generally have large areas unobstructed by supporting columns as well as high roofs, especially for storage of double-decker buses. Recently`{{clarify timeframe|date=August 2022}}`{=mediawiki} in London, the transfer of routes from double-decker operation to articulated buses has caused problems at some garages that were found to be too small to accommodate all the replacement buses, requiring splitting of allocations, or the building of new garages.
Some bus companies in the UK make use of **outstations** (or **out-stations**) as an additional bus storage facility. These are generally outdoor parking locations, where buses are stored overnight or between peaks, which are more conveniently located for operations, reducing dead mileage. There does not appear to be a universal definition of an outstation, but it seems agreed that there are no maintenance facilities at a bus outstation.

The largest bus depot in the world is Millennium Park Bus Depot In Delhi India, built for the Commonwealth Games in 2010

# Mills v R
***Mills v R***, \[1986\] 1 S.C.R. 863 is a leading constitutional decision of the Supreme Court of Canada concerning the right to a trial within a reasonable time under section 11(b) of the *Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms* and the meaning of a \"court of competent jurisdiction\" under section 24(1) of the *Charter*. The Court held that a thirty-one month delay was not unreasonable in the circumstances and that preliminary hearing judges are not within jurisdiction, superior courts can sometimes be within jurisdiction, and criminal trial courts were always within jurisdiction.
## Background
For a period starting in 1973 James Mills was arrested and charged several times for robbery. In 1979 he was arrested in Nova Scotia with several outstanding charges. He was moved to London, Ontario to deal with some past charges. He did not appear in court until September 1981. There were a number of requests for adjournment. Eventually, the *Charter* came into force in April 1982. In May Mills made a motion for a stay of proceedings on the basis that it violated his right to be tried in a reasonable time under section 11(b) of the *Charter*.
The motions judge held that it was not a \"court of competent jurisdiction\" under section 24(1) and that even if it was the *Charter* could not apply retroactively to remedy violations that occurred before the enactment of the *Charter*. Both the Superior Court of Ontario and Ontario Court of Appeal dismissed the motion.
## Judgment of the Supreme Court of Canada {#judgment_of_the_supreme_court_of_canada}

# Simion Stoilow
**Simion Stoilow** or **Stoilov** (`{{OldStyleDate|14 September|1887|2 September}}`{=mediawiki} -- 4 April 1961) was a Romanian mathematician, creator of the Romanian school of complex analysis, and author of over 100 publications.
## Biography
He was born in Bucharest, and grew up in Craiova. His father, Colonel Simion Stoilow, fought at the Battle of Smârdan in the Romanian War of Independence. After studying at the Obedeanu elementary school and the Carol I High School, Stoilow went in 1907 to the University of Paris, where he earned a B.S. degree in 1910 and a Ph.D. in Mathematics in 1916. His doctoral dissertation was written under the direction of Émile Picard.
He returned to Romania in 1916 to fight in the Romanian Campaign of World War I, first in Dobrudja, then in Moldavia. After the war, he became professor of mathematics at the University of Iași (1919--1921) and the University of Cernăuți (1921--1939). He was an Invited Speaker of the International Congress of Mathematicians in 1920 at Strasbourg, in 1928 at Bologna, and in 1936 at Oslo. In 1928 he was awarded the Legion of Honour, Officer rank. In 1939 he moved to Bucharest, working first at the Polytechnic University of Bucharest, and from 1941 at the University of Bucharest, serving as rector from 1944 to 1946 and as dean of the Faculties of Mathematics and Physics from 1948 to 1951.
From 1946 to 1948, he served as Romanian ambassador to France. In 1946 he was a member of the Romanian delegation at the Paris Peace Conference, headed by Gheorghe Tătărescu. In July 1947 he organized at Club de Chaillot the exhibit \"L\'art français au secours des enfants roumains\"; Constantin Brâncuși participated, Tristan Tzara and Jean Cassou wrote the preface to the catalogue. In 1946 he was awarded the Order of the Star of Romania, Grand Officer rank and in 1948, the Order of the Star of the Romanian People\'s Republic, Second class.
Stoilow was elected corresponding member of the Romanian Academy in 1936, and full member in 1945, and later became president of the Physics and Mathematics section of the Academy. In 1949 he was the founding director of the Institute of Mathematics of the Romanian Academy, serving in that capacity until he died. Among his students at the University of Bucharest and at the Institute were Cabiria Andreian Cazacu, Romulus Cristescu, Martin Jurchescu, Ionel Bucur, and Aristide Deleanu, as well as Nicolae Boboc, Corneliu Constantinescu, and Aurel Cornea. Some of the first Romanian topologists who obtained their candidate's theses were Stoilow's students Tudor Ganea, Israel Berstein, Aristide Deleanu, Valentin Poénaru, and Kostake Teleman.
In 1952, Stoilow was awarded the Order of the Star of the Romanian People\'s Republic, First class.
Stoilow died in Bucharest in 1961 of a brain stroke. He was cremated at the *Cenușa* crematorium. Prior to the Romanian Revolution of 1989, his funeral urn was maintained in a crypt at the Carol Park Mausoleum.
## Legacy
The Institute of Mathematics of the Romanian Academy (closed in 1975 by a decree of Nicolae Ceaușescu, reopened in the immediate aftermath of the 1989 Revolution), is now named after him. The *Simion Stoilow Prize* is awarded every year by the Romanian Academy.

# Richard Pearse Airport
**Richard Pearse Airport** `{{airport codes|TIU|NZTU}}`{=mediawiki}, also known as **Timaru Airport**, is located off the Pleasant Point Highway, 4 km north of the suburb Washdyke in Timaru, New Zealand.
## History
The airport takes its name from the local pioneer aviator, Richard Pearse, who allegedly flew in powered flight before the Wright Brothers. The airport is a small regional airport with one gate, one asphalt runway and two grass runways. The South Canterbury Aero Club is based at the airport and frequently uses the airport for training and recreational purposes.
There are regular Air New Zealand Link flights to Wellington using Bombardier Q300 aircraft, formerly flights were operated to Oamaru and Christchurch. Timaru, is the only major centre without a direct air service to Auckland. Eagle Airways used to operate from Timaru to Wellington with Beechcraft 1900D aircraft.
## Upgrade
A \$1.3 million upgrade was approved in November 2015 by the Timaru District Council. The upgrade would increase the current terminal space from 450 square metres to cover almost 600 square metres and would include a new luggage collection area. The upgrade was in response to the increase in capacity on Air New Zealand Link flights to Wellington using the higher capacity Bombardier Q300

# Mycobacterium malmoense
***Mycobacterium malmoense*** is a Gram-positive bacterium from the genus *Mycobacterium*.
## Etymology
From the city of Malmö, Sweden where the strain used for the description was isolated from patients.
## Description
Gram-positive, nonmotile, acid-fast and coccoid to short rods.
- Environmental reservoir: soil and water.
**Colony characteristics**
- Smooth and nonpigmented colonies, growth below the surface of semisolid agar medium after deep inoculation (as seen with M. bovis), 0.9 - 1.7mm in diameter.
**Physiology**
- Growth on inspissated egg medium and oleic acid-albumin agar at a temperature range of 22 °C-37 °C requires over 1 week.
- Susceptible to ethambutol, ethionamide, kanamycin and cycloserine.
**Differential characteristics**
- Antigenic structure: seroagglutination demonstrates a single serovar distinct from that of other species.
## Pathogenesis
- Usually infects young children with cervical lymphadenitis or adults with chronic pulmonary disease, (mostly with previously documented pneumoconiosis).
- Rarely causes extrapulmonary diseases and disseminated infections
- Biosafety level 2
- The first case of infectious endocarditis by M. malmoense was reported in 2020 in Cali, Colombia. The patient was a 61-year old woman with a history of biological mitral valve replacement due to rheumatic disease, dermatomyositis and rheumatoid arthritis in management with methotrexate, chloroquine, and prednisolone.
## Type strain {#type_strain}
- First isolated from sputum and biopsy specimens with pulmonary disease in Malmö, Sweden.
Strain ATCC 29571 = CCUG 37761 = CIP 105775 = DSM 44163 = JCM 13391 = NCTC 11298

# Likin (taxation)
The **likin** or **lijin** or **lekin** or **liken** was a form of domestic customs tax in the Chinese Empire and Republic, which was first introduced as a means of financing the largely locally recruited armies to suppress the Taiping Rebellion.
## History
The likin tax was first introduced in 1853 by censor Lei Yixian in the area around Yangzhou as a way of raising funds in the campaigns against local rebels. As the central government was short of revenue, the imperial court sanctioned the tax and it quickly became an important source of funds for the campaign against the Taiping and Nian rebellions.
The tax was levied on an ad valorem basis on goods in transit between provinces and on shops, with rates ranging from 2 to 10 per cent. After the Taipings were suppressed in 1864, the likin became a permanent feature of the Chinese tax system and it became an important source of revenue for local government. In many ways, the tax signified the decentralization of state authority in the wake of the Taiping rebellion.
The Treaty of Nanjing ending the First Opium War, the most favored nation clauses in subsequent \"unequal treaties\" with imperialist Europe, and the disorder of the Taiping Rebellion reduced China\'s ability to impose or levy their own external tariffs (customs), with the Chinese Maritime Customs Service under European control after 1854. Foreign merchants protested against the likin as a violation of China\'s treaties and raised the issue repeatedly, including at the Chefoo Convention. As it was imposed on all goods both foreign and domestic, however, it survived the fall of the Qing dynasty into the Warlord Era and was not ended until 1 January 1931

# The Little Island (book)
***The Little Island*** is a book written by Margaret Wise Brown under the pseudonym Golden MacDonald and illustrated by Leonard Weisgard. Released by Doubleday in 1946, it was the recipient of the Caldecott Medal for illustration in 1947. It describes the four seasons as experienced by a little island. The book is lyrically written, an example being: \"Winter came/ and the snow fell softly/ like a great quiet secret in the night/ cold and still.\"
## Plot
A little island in the ocean changes as the seasons comes and go \-- spring and summer bring flowers, seals, and birds, and days and nights. One day, a kitten visits the island with a family on a picnic. This kitten opines that the island is small and isolated; however, the island retorts that it, like the kitten, is also a part of the world. When the kitten disputes the island\'s claim, the island suggests that it ask any fish. The kitten catches a fish and demands, on pain of being eaten, to know how the island is part of the bigger land. The fish invites the kitten down into the water to see, which the kitten of course cannot do. The kitten demands to be shown another way. \'Then you will have to take it on faith\', says the fish \-- \'to believe what I tell you about what you don\'t know.\" The fish then tells him \"how all lands are one land under the sea.\" The cat realizes he has learned a great secret, which he loves, and lets the fish go before leaving the island. The island settles back into the timeless cycle of the seasons \-- autumn, winter, storms, and calm.
## Critical response {#critical_response}
**Golden MacDonald** was a pen name for Margaret Wise Brown of *Goodnight Moon* fame. The text of the book captures Brown\'s appreciation for the subtle rhythms of nature, and the connections that all beings and objects in nature have with one another.
The book covers the four seasons as they affect the little island, plants, and animals that visit. To show the ongoing nature of the process, the book\'s timeline expands beyond a single year. The island is described as being: \"A part of the world and a world of its own all surrounded by the bright blue sea.\"
The book won a Caldecott Medal for its shimmering and tingling watercolors. The images create a mood of the perpetual essence of nature, and our connections to one another through the blue-green and grey color palette

# Whanganui Airport
**Whanganui Airport** `{{airport codes|WAG|NZWU}}`{=mediawiki}, named **Wanganui Airport** until 2016, is the airport that serves Whanganui, New Zealand. It is located to the south of Whanganui River, approximately 4 km from the centre of Whanganui. The airport has a single asphalt runway and three grass runways, and its single terminal has two gates.
## History
The airport opened in 1954, and services to the airport began in November that year.
In September 2013, Air New Zealand announced that it would withdraw services from Whanganui to Wellington and Taupo in December 2013. Sounds Air took over the Wellington route until 15 May 2015. Air New Zealand then withdrew service from Auckland to Whanganui on 31 July 2016. The next day, Air Chathams began service between Whanganui and Auckland, replicating Air New Zealand\'s schedule and, according to then-mayor Annette Main, saving the airport from potential closure.
Work to resurface the asphalt runway began in October 2023. The new surface is expected to last for 15 years.
## Operations
Air Chathams now operates daily flights between Whanganui and Auckland. There are three flights in each direction on weekdays and one on weekend days, using ATR 72-500 aircraft.
Air Whanganui, which offers business charter and medivac flights, is based at Whanganui Airport and provides services throughout the country. In 2023, Air Whanganui began offering scholarships to Whanganui high-school students who are interested in a career in aviation

# Jetsam (film)
***Jetsam*** is a 2007 British film thriller, written and directed by Simon Welsford. It was shot in the English seaside resort town of Margate for the no-budget (in film terms) sum of £3,000 (about \$5,700) and stars Alex Reid, Shauna Macdonald and Jamie Draven. The two-week shoot wrapped on 27 May 2006, and pre-production was completed nearly a year later, on 8 March 2007. The film premiered at the 51st London International Film Festival, and received many positive notices. It has also received acclaim at the Slamdance Film Festival. It was finally granted a national release in the UK in August 2009. The Margate coast in Kent provided the perfect backdrop for the moody, volatile atmosphere the thriller demanded.
## Plot
Grace (Alex Reid) is washed up on a beach along with a man (Jamie Draven) whom she cannot recollect. But since it becomes quickly apparent that the man means to kill her, Grace is forced to resort to extreme measures to stay alive while putting her memory back together
