11,104,554	# Waris Shah: Ishq Daa Waaris *Waris Shah: Ishq Daa Waaris* is a 2006 Indian Punjabi language film, directed by Manoj Punj, starring Gurdas Maan, Juhi Chawla and Divya Dutta in lead roles. It is about the life of legendary Punjabi poet Waris Shah during the times when he wrote the poem Heer. The movie was internationally acclaimed and won four awards at the 54th National Film Awards. ## Plot Mughal Ruler Aurangzeb bans music in India, since he believes that music turns a person away from God. This ban continues for the next generations. Music lovers and singers start living in secret places away from cities. Baba Makhdum (Mukesh Rishi) is staying near Kasur with some of his followers and practices music; Waris Shah (Gurdas Maan) comes and joins him. Baba Makhdum tells Waris that he appreciates his talent, but asks Waris to feel the pain to get the best out of him. On Baba Ji\'s suggestion Waris moves to the village of Malkan Hans, where music is not banned. The Mughal Ruler finds out about Baba Makhdum and kills him. Waris Shah meets Bhaagpari (Juhi Chawla) in Malkan Hans. The two fall in love. Saabo (Divya Dutta), too, gets attracted to Waris Shah, and is willing to do anything to get Waris. Waris starts living in the masjid of the village and starts working on the poem Heer. Village youngsters get attracted to his work and become his fans. The Qazi (Gurkirtan) of the village becomes furious after seeing Waris\'s popularity. Waris is arrested by the area of Subedar after complaints from the Qazi. Waris convinces the Subedar that by singing he is worshiping God. Bhaagpari is forced to marry Saabo\'s brother (Sushant Singh) as they were betrothed at a young age. Waris Shah realizes that to feel pain and complete Heer, he must let Bhaagpari go. On the other hand, Saabo tries her best but fails to get Waris. Finally she accepts her fate and lets Waris go. Waris and Bhaagpari are accused of having a sexual relationship without marriage. They prove their innocence by walking unharmed on burning coals. In the end Waris leaves the village upon the completion of Heer. ## Cast Actor/Actress Role --------------- -------------------------------------------- Gurdas Maan Waris Shah Juhi Chawla Bhagpari Divya Dutta Saabo Sushant Singh Inayat (Saabo\'s brother) Satwant Kaur Saabo\'s mother Chetana Das Bhagpari\'s mother Deeba Saabo\'s mother Mukesh Rishi Muin-Ud-Din Makhdoom (Waris Shah\'s Ustad) Gurkirtan Qazi ## Awards The film won the maximum number of awards (4) at the 54th National Film Awards along with Lage Raho Munna Bhai.

11,104,651	# WorkKeys ACT WorkKeys consists of three elements: - Job skill assessments, which are designed to measure foundational and personal skills as they apply to the workplace - Job analysis, which pinpoints or estimates skill benchmarks for specific job positions that individuals must meet through testing - Skill training, which helps individuals boost their scores ## Skill assessments {#skill_assessments} ACT WorkKeys includes eight workplace skill assessments: Three core assessments used to earn the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC): - WorkKeys Applied Math (formerly Applied Mathematics) -- applying mathematical reasoning to work-related problems - WorkKeys Workplace Documents (formerly Reading for Information) -- comprehending work-related reading materials such as memos, bulletins, policy manuals, and governmental regulations - WorkKeys Graphic Literacy (formerly Locating Information) -- using information from sources such as diagrams, floor plans, tables, forms, graphs, and charts Additional assessments available: - Applied Technology -- understanding technical principles as they apply to the workplace - Business Writing -- composing clear, well-developed messages relating to on-the-job situations - Fit -- how interests and values correspond to a particular career - Talent -- includes dependability, assertiveness, and emotional stability - Workplace Observation -- paying attention to details in instructions and demonstrations ## Job analysis {#job_analysis} The job analysis component of ACT WorkKeys, known as Job Profiling, helps to set benchmarks that correspond with WorkKeys scores, giving the examinee a target score to hit in order to qualify for a job. Employers use job profiling to determine which skills are required for a job, and the level of each skill needed to perform the job successfully. This helps employers determine the standards for how an applicant must score in a particular WorkKeys skill assessment in order to be qualified for the job. In the job profiling process, ACT-licensed profilers visit with the client company or organization and determine background information on the job to be profiled and how specifically the job relates to the company. The profiler tours the company and collects materials -- such as training manuals, annual reports, company newsletters -- that define the company. The profiler then compiles an initial list of the tasks most relevant to the job being profiled. Subject matter experts -- those who know the job best through incumbency or supervising the job -- refine the list and rate each task based on two factors: importance of the task to the job and relative time spent on it. The subject matter experts then decide what minimum level of each skill is required to perform the job successfully. The examinee\'s score on an ACT WorkKeys test corresponds to their preparedness or the level of remedial training needed. ACT WorkKeys also offers two job analysis products that can be used without the help of a job profiler. ACT SkillMap, an online service which links job tasks to the skill levels of WorkKeys assessments, is used primarily to identify employees' training needs. WorkKeys Estimator is a paper-and-pencil system that gives quick estimates of the WorkKeys skill levels needed for a job. ## Skill training {#skill_training} The ACT WorkKeys system also includes computer-based and classroom-based training for individuals that corresponds with ACT WorkKeys exams. There are curricula available for every skill level of each ACT WorkKeys foundational skill exam. ## Alternative versions {#alternative_versions} Some ACT WorkKeys exams are available in Spanish and Braille versions in addition to the standard English.	558	WorkKeys	0
11,104,651	# WorkKeys ## ACT National Career Readiness System {#act_national_career_readiness_system} ACT WorkKeys exams are the foundation of the ACT National Career Readiness System, a job skills credentialing system. People can earn an [ACT National Career Readiness Certificate](https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/workkeys-for-job-seekers/ncrc.html) by taking three ACT WorkKeys exams: [Applied Math](https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/workkeys-for-job-seekers/assessments/applied-math.html), [Graphic Literacy](https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/workkeys-for-job-seekers/assessments/graphic-literacy.html) and [Workplace Documents](https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/workkeys-for-job-seekers/assessments/workplace-documents.html). They are awarded certificates of Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze levels, depending on their test scores. ACT estimates that people scoring at the Bronze level have the foundational skills for approximately 17% of the jobs profiled by ACT using WorkKeys. A Silver score indicates skills for approximately 69% of those jobs profiled, a Gold for 93% of the jobs, and a Platinum 99% of the jobs. ## Statewide and community adoptions {#statewide_and_community_adoptions} Several states, communities, and cities have adopted ACT WorkKeys as part of their economic development or educational initiatives. Illinois and Michigan have made ACT WorkKeys exams part of their state high school graduation requirements. Starting in 2001, two ACT WorkKeys tests, Applied Mathematics and Reading for Information, became part of the Prairie State Achievement Examination for all 11th graders in Illinois, along with the ACT Test. In 2007, the Michigan Department of Education made the ACT WorkKeys Reading for Information and Applied Mathematics exams a part of its Michigan Merit Exam, a mandatory exam for 11th graders that also includes the ACT Test. As of 2006, 14 states were participating in the ACT National Career Readiness System and using ACT WorkKeys as part of that participation. Many states use ACT WorkKeys scores in their economic development initiatives, to demonstrate to business relocation prospects that their residents possess high job skills. These state initiatives include skill credentialing programs that are affiliated with the ACT National Career Readiness Certificate. According to ACT, 38 states were participating in the program as of 2011. The state of Kentucky issued a Kentucky Employability Certificate to adult education participants based on their performance on three ACT WorkKeys assessments: Reading for Information, Applied Mathematics, and Locating Information. In 2010, Kentucky switched to the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC) as part of its statewide realignment of education, economic development and workforce development known as WorkSmart Kentucky North Carolina issues a North Carolina Career Readiness Certificate on the basis of scores on the same three ACT WorkKeys components. The South Carolina Department of Education requires some career education teachers to validate their competency in basic skills by obtaining specified minimum scores on the ACT WorkKeys assessments of Reading for Information, Applied Mathematics, and Writing. ## Use by employers {#use_by_employers} ACT WorkKeys is used by many business organizations. Companies that have required some or all job applicants to submit WorkKeys scores include: - CME Automotive - Dow Corning - Eastman Chemical - Hemlock Semiconductor - Northrop Grumman Ship Systems - WestRock Company Paper and Packaging Solutions	467	WorkKeys	1

11,104,696	# Figure and ground (media) Figure and ground is a concept drawn from Gestalt psychology by media theorist Marshall McLuhan in the early 1970s. This concept underpins the meaning of his famous phrase, \"The medium is the message\". The concept was an approach to what was called \"perceptual organization.\" He began to use the terms figure and ground as a way \"to describe the parts of a situation\" and \"to help explain his ideas about media and human communication.\" The concept was later employed to explain how a communications technology, the medium or figure, necessarily operates through its context, or ground. ## Overview To McLuhan, \"\'figure\' refers to something that jumps out at us, something that grabs our attention, \[whereas\] 'ground' refers to something that supports or contextualizes a situation and is usually an area of unattention.\" When we first experience a new image or sensation, there are certain aspects of the object that grab our attention and engage us and certain aspects that we unintentionally ignore. We should not focus on just the \"figure\" or the \"ground\" though, as McLuhan believed that both were equally as important to understanding the full meaning of the situation. \"This distinction between that which is perceived and that which is blocked out in order to focus perception is central for McLuhan.\" McLuhan used different words to describe the figure/ground relationship, sometimes using content for figure and environment or, more often, medium for ground. \"McLuhan looked at media through a figure/ground relationship.\" To him, people tended to focus on only specific parts of the media, and disregard other parts. \"To examine the total effect of any medium, McLuhan pointed out that we need to look at both figure AND ground, and their relationship to one another.\" He believed that \"only focusing on the 'content' of the media was like looking at figures without examining their ground.\" \"The ground, or environment, is not a passive container, but active processes that influence the relationships between all of the elements in it\". McLuhan believed that to fully grasp the impact of a new technology in regard to figure (medium) and ground (context), one must understand that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Neither piece is definitive without the other. His Understanding Media explores different grounds as they are structured by different media including print, radio, and television. Al Held, a well-known artist, exemplifies this idea in one of his paintings. The work is called The Big N and it \"provides us with an introduction to the concepts of figure and ground.\" Looking at a glance, you might draw your attention to the black triangles. \"Once you were given the name of the painting, however, the frame became linked to the figures, and an \'N\' suddenly appeared.\" In understanding the work, it is important to look at the bigger picture. Al Held\'s painting is well known for its display of framing, or context, and its importance to the meaning of the overall situation. If either the frame or the painting itself were to change, the interpretation of the work might shift. Pertaining to media, we must look at both the figure and the ground to \"understand \[its\] effects.\" The ground which media creates gives a context for human communication, and thus \"directs human action in unique and important ways.\" McLuhan argued that we must study media in their historical context, particularly in relation to those technologies that preceded them. The present environment, itself made up of the effects of previous technologies, gives rise to new technologies, which, in turn, further shapes societies and individuals. Furthermore, all technologies have embedded within them their own assumptions about time and space. Again, the message conveyed by the medium can only be understood if the medium is concurrently analyzed with the environment in which it is used --- and which, simultaneously, it effectively creates. McLuhan believed that an examination of the figure-ground relationship can offer a critical commentary on culture and society. Alternately, the idea of \"figure\" can also refer to content of a particular medium, while \"ground\" refers to the medium itself. McLuhan\'s aphorism \"The medium is the message\" can thus be read as an attempt to draw attention away from a preoccupation with the figure/message to a consideration of the importance of the ground/medium	718	Figure and ground (media)	0

11,104,747	# Dave Henzerling David Philip Henzerling (born May 3, 1961), a.k.a. David Michael-Philips, is an American musician, songwriter and producer. He has been a member of numerous hard rock bands including Schoolboys, Keel, King Kobra, Lizzy Borden, Geronimo!, Liquid Black, Big Cock, Icon, Tunnel, Steelshine and Kelly Keeling & Friends. He is the older brother of Dan Henzerling, also a musician and has two sisters (both younger). David was born in Cincinnati, Ohio and moved to Phoenix, Arizona with his family in December 1969. He claims to have been blessed with the good fortune of \"\...growing up in the 60s, being a teenager in the 70s, living my 20s during the big-80s and starting a family in the 90s\...I think I benefited from the best that each decade had to offer\...\" Although his childhood obsession had always been drawing (he was an avid comic book collector and cartoon artist), music was always his primary passion. As a guitarist, he cites Ritchie Blackmore (Deep Purple), Edward Van Halen (Van Halen), and Ace Frehley (Kiss) as his major influences. At 14, his uncle took him to his first concert -- \"It was Joe Walsh and Charlie Daniels in 1975\", David says, \"From the first note played, I was hooked! After that, I saw pretty much every show that came to (Phoenix)\". ## Career ### 1979--1983: Early years {#early_years} David was a member of the Scottsdale, AZ based hard rock cover band The Schoolboys at the end of high school in 1979. In the summer of 1980, the band had decided to start writing and performing original songs, grooming themselves to be America\'s version of Def Leppard, a Sheffield, England band of similar musical genre who were just starting to gain international notoriety. They released a 12\" EP Singin\', Shoutin\' and were featured on two compilation albums by local FM radio station KDKB. That lineup was short-lived however, and both David and drummer John Covington left the band in early 1981 over creative differences in musical direction and style. The remaining members formed the band Icon which released four studio albums and one live album/DVD. ### 1984--1988: King Kobra {#king_kobra} The decision to leave The Schoolboys was an important one, because it marked the turning point that led to Henzerling\'s relocation to Los Angeles in 1984 to join the band Keel. Henzerling played only one show with Keel, the band\'s very first on April 7 1984 at Perkins Palace in Pasadena, California, where he was quickly spotted and recruited by veteran drummer Carmine Appice (Vanilla Fudge, Rod Stewart, Ozzy Osbourne) for a new band being formed called King Kobra. Shortly after joining, the band\'s manager suggested David change his last name from \"Henzerling\" to something more Hollywood-friendly, so the pseudonym \"Michael-Philips\" was adopted (the use of Philips came from David\'s middle name). King Kobra was signed by Capitol records in June 1984 and their debut LP Ready to Strike, produced by Spencer Proffer (Quiet Riot), was released in March 1985. The band\'s first single, \"Hunger\", was featured regularly on MTV, and they toured supporting the group Autograph. A second single, \"Tough Guys\", was remixed by Steve Thompson (Korn, Whitney Houston, Guns N\' Roses), but was never released by Capitol. King Kobra released their second album, Thrill of a Lifetime, in March 1986 and followed by touring with Kiss, Iron Maiden, Queensrÿche, and Ted Nugent. The song \"Never Say Die -- Iron Eagle\" was featured on the soundtrack of the number one movie Iron Eagle (1986), and a video was filmed with the stars Jason Gedrick and Louis Gossett Jr. at a remote airfield in Chino, California, featuring the band members playing Air Force fighter pilots. By late 1987, following their departure from Capitol Records, King Kobra had already begun to fracture and undergo numerous line-up changes so that by the time King Kobra III was released in 1988, there was no longer a band to support the album. ### 1989--1995: Glam metal\'s demise and exodus from Los Angeles {#glam_metals_demise_and_exodus_from_los_angeles} David performed on Lizzy Borden\'s critically acclaimed Master of Disguise album in 1989 (Metal Blade Records). After playing a few live shows, he opted not to officially join the band and instead formed the groups Geronimo! in 1988 and Liquid Black in 1992 after a brief stint with his old Schoolboys buddy Dan Wexler in Tomcats (1990). The Liquid Black years (1992--1995) were creative and prolific ones for David and he wrote over 70 songs with his partner and co-writer Lear Black. The band caught the eye of superstar producer Roy Thomas Baker (Queen, Journey, The Cars) and they recorded a four-song demo at Baker\'s studio in November 1994. The demo, however, did not result in a record contract and after experiencing the Northridge earthquake on 17 January 1994 along with the concurrent shift in the public\'s musical taste from glam metal to the Seattle grunge sound, David moved back to Phoenix, AZ with his new wife Kathryn and their young son. ### 1996--2004: Family years {#family_years} David and Kathryn had three more children during the years 1996--2001 (bringing the total offspring to four). David received his Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Arizona State University in December 1999 and began working as a software engineer at Intel Corporation in January 2000.	879	Dave Henzerling	0
11,104,747	# Dave Henzerling ## Career ### 2005--Present: Return to music {#present_return_to_music} In early 2005, David reunited with his Schoolboys band-mate John Covington to form the band Big C\\k with vocalist Robert Mason (Lynch Mob, Warrant). The band\'s name was meant as a satirical jab at the music business since they figured \"\...no label would sign and no radio station would play anything by a band called \'Big C\\k\'\...\" (note: Big C\\k is obfuscated to prevent being flagged by Wikipedia as obscene). The project was released independently and without fanfare solely for the purpose of \"\...creating music and having some fun\...\". Big C\\k released three albums Year of the C\\k (2005), Big C\\k (2006) and Motherload (2008) as well as a digital-only greatest hits compilation Got Big C\\k? (2009). The albums received positive critical acclaim for both their musicianship and unapologetic swagger. In July 2010, the song \"Real Man\" from the album Big C\\k was used by the Strongman contestant on an episode of \"America\'s Got Talent\". The band also performed at the U.S. mega-festival Rocklahoma in 2008 and 2009 along with fellow 1980s acts Warrant, Ratt and Poison. In a further ironic twist, David also played bass guitar at the 2009 Rocklahoma with his high-school and Schoolboys band-mates Icon (who had originally replaced David after his 1981 departure and changed its name from The Schoolboys to Icon). In 2010, Italian record label Frontiers Records signed the reunited King Kobra and an album of new material was released in May 2011. A follow-up album (II) was released in 2013. David continues to compose and produce original projects as well as perform locally with his Arizona-based Classic Rock cover band Trailer Park. He lives in Scottsdale, Arizona	285	Dave Henzerling	1

11,104,759	# Kwaguʼł Kwaguʼł are a Kwakwakaʼwakw tribe of the Indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast from central British Columbia, on northern Vancouver Island. Their main community is called Tsax̱is or Fort Rupert. The ancestral language is Kwakʼwala, a language that is a part of the Wakashan language group. In their language, Kwaguʼł translates to Smoke-Around-the-World referring to the smoke that exited from the many bighouses in their villages. The band government of the Kwaguʼł is the Kwakiutl First Nation. The anglicization \"Kwakiutl\" and other forms of this group\'s name was for a long time used to describe all the Kwakwakaʼwakw peoples, but properly refers only to this group. The term \"Kwakiutl\" is also used by the Laich-kwil-tach or Lekwiltok (Euclataws or Yucultas, historically) who migrated from the vicinity of what would become Fort Rupert to what is now the City of Campbell River and adjoining islands at the start of the 19th century; they identify as the Southern Kwakiutl. ## Notable members {#notable_members} - Artist Mungo Martin and his descendants, many of whom are also prominent artists. - Tony Hunt, chief of the Kwaguʼł and a carver/sculptor - Hawinipologwa or Qualicum Annie as she is better known as, was Walas Kwagulh, and she likely carried the killer whale crest	210	Kwaguʼł	0
11,104,778	# Settlers Landing station Settlers Landing station is a station on the RTA Waterfront Line in Cleveland, Ohio. The station is located just south of the intersection of West Superior Avenue and Old River Road inside Settlers Landing Park, after which the station is named. It is the first station beyond Tower City station on the Waterfront line, which extended the Green and Blue Lines into The Flats along the east bank of the Cuyahoga River and along the Lake Erie waterfront. The station is adjacent to the Settlers Landing historical site which marks the location where Moses Cleaveland and his surveying team disembarked from the Cuyahoga River to survey the city in 1796. ## History The station opened on July 10, 1996, when light rail service was extended 2.2 mi from Tower City through The Flats and along the lakefront. This extension was designated the Waterfront Line, although it is actually an extension of the Blue and Green Lines, as trains leaving this station toward Tower City continue along the Blue or Green Line routes to Shaker Heights. ## Station layout {#station_layout} The station has two side platforms located inside Settlers Landing Park. The station is located under the viaduct for the Detroit--Superior Bridge. A large glass shelter covers most of platform area and each side has a mini-high platform which allow passengers with disabilities to access trains. ## Notable places nearby {#notable_places_nearby} - The Flats - The Warehouse District - Jacobs Pavilion ## Artwork The station includes eight etched glass panels created by local artist Martin Boyle. The panels join to make up windscreens to shield waiting riders at the outdoor station. Each of the panels, which measure 63 inches by 24 or 20 inches, have fine, detailed etchings of ships, canoes, early settlers in covered wagons and local waterways illustrating different local transportation eras. Each image is hand-drawn in a classical etching style and using a crosshatch technique. One illustration is a map of Cleaveland\'s route to the Cuyahoga. ## Gallery <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 1.jpg <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 2.jpg <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 3.jpg <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 4.jpg <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 5.jpg <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 6	370	Settlers Landing station	0

11,104,826	# Fresno Metropolitan Museum of Art and Science The Fresno Metropolitan Museum of Art and Science was a Smithsonian Institution Affiliate and American Alliance of Museums accredited museum located in downtown Fresno, California, in the San Joaquin Valley. The Museum was established in 1984 and was one of the largest museums between San Francisco and Los Angeles. \"The Met\" was housed in the historic 1922 Fresno Bee Building. In August 2005, the museum began an extensive interior renovation; the first of its kind since the Museum\'s opening. The museum reopened on November 13, 2008, and closed on January 5, 2010, after defaulting on its renovation loans. ## History In 1978, a group of Fresno civic leaders began to explore the possibility of creating a regional museum for the San Joaquin Valley. From 1981 to 1985, these members of the community raised more than \$5.5 million to open the Met in the historic downtown Fresno Bee building. The Museum opened its doors to the community on April 8, 1984. Since that time, the Museum has attracted more than two million people with its programs in art and science with diverse exhibitions including A T. rex Named Sue, Masterworks from the Albertina, Georgia O\'Keeffe: Visions of the Sublime, Variations on a Theme: American Prints from Pop Art to Minimalism and Grossology: The (Impolite) Science of the Human Body. In 1995, the Museum became the first organization outside the Bay Area to win Northern California\'s \"Award for Excellence\" in non-profit management from Chevron and The Management Center of San Francisco. In 1995, the Met received a Central California Excellence in Business Award in the non-profit category as presented by The Fresno Bee, and American Alliance of Museums accreditation status in July 2007. The Museum was named the Best Museum each year since 1999 by the readers of The Fresno Bee. On January 5, 2010, the Museum closed for good, due to the museum\'s inability to pay off the increasing deficit from the museum\'s renovation and operations. ## Renovation The museum\'s \$28 million renovation project brought the historic 1922 Fresno Bee Building into the 21st century, with more accessible gallery space, new restroom facilities and elevators, and remodeled fourth and fifth floors, which previously had not been opened as gallery space. The building underwent significant structural enhancements, specifically on the west wall from the footings below the basement up to the fifth floor. The existing support columns consisting of steel reinforced concrete were enhanced in the basement and first floor. The building reopened November 13, 2008. The museum\'s fourth floor consisted of a large gallery space that also served as a forum for educational purposes and housed the Michaelis Classroom in an adjacent room. The fifth floor became the home for the museum\'s administrative offices and also housed a conference room and research library. ## Temporary space/Reeves Family ASK Science Center {#temporary_spacereeves_family_ask_science_center} During the museum\'s renovation, programming and exhibitions were held in a temporary location. The museum\'s Reeves Family ASK Science Center moved into donated space in the fall of 2005 and was open until July 2008. The Reeves Family ASK Science Center was a hands-on science education space that featured rotating exhibits. Following the renovation the center returned to its location inside the museum. ## Educational and community outreach {#educational_and_community_outreach} The museum\'s outreach efforts included: The Mobile Met Science Outreach program, which visited schools, YMCA groups, day care facilities and summer school programs from Los Baños to Visalia and provided free hands-on science lessons inspired by the California Science Standards for children in kindergarten though sixth grade. The Docent Outreach Project which allowed teachers in grades 1 through 3 to take advantage of the Met\'s programming without traveling to the museum. The program\'s lessons were one hour long and featured hands-on art instruction. Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS), which used art to teach critical thinking, communication skills and visual literacy. These lessons were provided in English, Spanish and Hmong, free of charge to schools. The Met on the Move program, which debuted on October 13, 2008, included its mobile outreach vehicle, the Met on the Move, which provided hands-on activities and lessons in art and science to elementary schools in and around the Central San Joaquin Valley. The Met on the Move was the latest addition to the City of Fresno\'s Department of Parks After School, Recreation & Community Services Mobile Fleet.	728	Fresno Metropolitan Museum of Art and Science	0

11,104,831	# J. K. Gibson-Graham J. K. Gibson-Graham is a pen name shared by feminist economic geographers Julie Graham and Katherine Gibson. The two professors\' landmark first book The End of Capitalism (As We Knew It) was first published in 1996, followed by A Postcapitalist Politics in 2006. The two scholars also founded The Community Economies Research Network (CERN) and the Community Economies Collective (CEC), \"international collaborative networks of researchers who share an interest in theorizing, discussing, representing and ultimately enacting new visions of economy.\" Julie Graham died on April 4, 2010 of complications from cancer. Since then, Gibson has published some texts under their joint pen name---for instance, as co-editor of The Handbook of Diverse Economies (Gibson-Graham and Dombroski 2020). She has, since Graham's passing, mostly published under her own name, Katherine Gibson. Gibson is currently professor at the Institute of Culture and Society, University of Western Sydney. ## Work Their current work involves rethinking economy and re-visioning economic development. They and the community economies collective draw on human geography (especially economic geography), political economy, poststructuralism, feminism, and ongoing community-based research to pursue three major research directions: - Producing a language of the diverse economy that highlights the variety of transactions, forms of labor, class relations, types of enterprise, ecological relationships, and development dynamics in contemporary economies - Generating narratives, models and projects of non-capitalist and alternative capitalist development - Constructing and strengthening community economies in place through local action research. ## Significance J. K. Gibson-Graham have provided significant contributions to understandings of community economies and economic geography. In both A Postcapitalist Politics and The End of Capitalism (As We Knew It), Gibson-Graham \"propose to construct a new \'language of economic diversity\'\" that will contribute to our understandings of possible economic structures. They use a Marxist analysis of capitalism but they argue that capitalism is overdetermined and that there are many non-capitalist economic practices that exist alongside it. Based on this insight, they elaborate a \"politics of possibility\" that explores alternatives to exploitative economic practices. As one reviewer notes, Gibson-Graham \"rejects the idea that capitalist economies are tightly organized systems\" and instead presents the economy as consisting of \"many different undertakings, only some of which cluster around market transactions.\" In 1996, Gibson-Graham popularized and furthered discussion on a concept coined \"capitalocentrism\": > This term refers to the dominant representation of all economic activities in terms of their relationship to capitalism---as the same as, the opposite to, a complement of, or contained within capitalism. Our attempts to destabilize the hegemony of capitalocentrism have included a number of theoretical strategies: > > 1\) production of different representations of economic identity, and > > 2\) development of different narratives of economic development. Their work focuses on moving beyond a \"capitalocentric\" viewpoint and recognizing the wide range of economic institutions that co-exist within a given social formation. ## Publications ### Books - J.

With a short curve of roadway located behind the falls, it had the distinction of being the only waterfall in the state that one could drive a vehicle under, however this has since been closed and is now used for pedestrian access only. ## Geology Bridal Veil Falls flows on a tributary of the Cullasaja River through the Nantahala National Forest. The falls flows over an overhanging bluff that allows visitors to walk behind the falls and remain dry when the waterflow is low. During periods of drought, the stream may nearly dry up, though visitors will get wet if the waterflow is moderate or high. ## Location Bridal Veil Falls is located on the side of US 64 2.3 miles (3.7 km) north of Highlands, North Carolina. Highway 64 originally used the curve of roadway behind the falls exclusively so that all traffic went behind them; however, this caused problems with icing of the roadway during freezing weather, and Hwy. 64 has been re-routed around the front of the falls since. There is a parking area on the side of the road, where visitors can park and view the falls as well. ## History In 2003, a massive boulder slid off the left side of the falls, blocking that side of the drive-under completely. However, in July 2007, that boulder was removed by a local developer	252	Bridal Veil Falls (Macon County)	0
11,104,873	# Andy Cousin Andrew Cousin (born 28 June 1963 in Lincoln) is an English bassist and radio presenter from Mirfield in England. He is principally known for being the bassist of All About Eve and he has also played for The Mission. Since 2016, he presents the Andy Cousin show on Deal Radio. ## Before All About Eve (pre-1985) {#before_all_about_eve_pre_1985} In the early 1980s, Cousin played bass in Huddersfield for goth band Aemotti Crii, along with friend Tim Bricheno. Cousin remained with Aemotti Crii until they split up (circa 1984) and then moved down London for a very brief spell with a synthpop band called Pink and Black, appearing on one of their record covers despite not having played on any of the tracks. ## All About Eve first era (1985--1992) {#all_about_eve_first_era_19851992} Bricheno had left Aemotti Crii and become a member of All About Eve: following the departure of bassist James Jackson, he invited Cousin to join. Cousin became the mainstay bassist, playing on all four of their albums of the era and remaining with the band after Bricheno departed in 1990. ## Seeing Stars (1993) {#seeing_stars_1993} Many fans of the band\'s early sound reacted negatively to the new direction which the band were taking, and poor sales of the fourth album, Ultraviolet, caused the band to be dropped by their label, MCA. Cousin, along with drummer Mark Price and guitarist Marty Willson-Piper, remained in the studio to complete work on songs which had been intended for All About Eve\'s fifth album. These songs were eventually released in 1997 as Seeing Stars. ## The Mission (1993--1997) {#the_mission_19931997} In late 1993, Cousin joined The Mission after original bassist Craig Adams departed to join The Cult. Cousin played on two albums, Neverland and Blue, before the band split up. During this time, Cousin also played as a session musician on two songs by Mice, a band created by Regan that existed between 1995 and 1997. ## The Lucy Nation (1997--present) {#the_lucy_nation_1997present} Cousin formed The Lucy Nation with Swedish singer and pianist Anna Nyström (who had also guested on Seeing Stars). This band recorded one album, On in early 1999 (although only promotional copies were ever distributed) and had one song, \"Alright\", featured on the soundtrack of the film Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me. ## All About Eve second era (1999 -- present) {#all_about_eve_second_era_1999_present} At the time The Mission were reforming in 1999, Wayne Hussey asked Cousin to broach with Regan the subject of reforming All About Eve to perform as support band on the Mission\'s tour. Following some successful live performances, All About Eve stayed together as a semi-acoustic three piece (comprising Cousin, Regan and Willson-Piper) and, with the addition of a drummer, as a fully electric band. Cousin remained with the band throughout their second era, including the Fairy Light Nights period and the departure of Willson-Piper in 2002. Alongside Regan, Cousin co-produced the mini-album Iceland. In mid-2004, shortly after the release of their first single in a decade, \"Let Me Go Home\", the band split once again following various disagreements between Cousin and Regan, although this rift appeared to have been temporarily healed as All About Eve\'s major compilation Keepsakes was released with collaboration from both in early 2006	541	Andy Cousin	0

Each nomination contest is held by the party\'s local riding association. On occasion, a political party\'s head office may bypass the nomination contest and directly appoint its preferred candidate. This tends to be controversial, however. Nomination contests are most commonly held during the three to six months immediately preceding an election call, or in the first week of an election campaign	86	Nomination contest	0
11,104,982	# William Thomas (Gwilym Marles) William Thomas (1834 -- 11 December 1879), better known by his bardic name of Gwilym Marles, was a Welsh minister and poet, and the great-uncle of Dylan Thomas. Dylan was given his middle name, \"Marlais\", in honour of William Thomas, who is also believed to have inspired the character of Rev. Eli Jenkins in the play Under Milk Wood. ## Life Thomas was born in Brechfa near Llandysul. He had two brothers, one of whom, Evan, was the father of David John Thomas, father of Dylan. William studied at the Presbyterian College in Carmarthen, but won a scholarship which enabled him to go on to the University of Glasgow in 1856. After graduating, he became a minister at Llwynrhydowen, and for a time acted as a tutor to William Thomas (Islwyn), the poet. As well as his poems, which were published in 1859, he wrote hymns and stories, and a novel which was published in 1855 in the periodical Seren Gomer. He translated works by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, Robert Browning and Alexander Pope into the Welsh language. He married and had ten children. In 1872 the family moved back to Carmarthen. ## Influence An advocate of the views of Theodore Parker, Gwilym Marles became a champion of Unitarianism, and has been called \"the founder of modern Unitarianism in Wales\", so much did his beliefs diverge from those of other Unitarian ministers. He opened a grammar school, and was politically active, supporting local farmers in a tithe war and campaigning on behalf of the Liberal Party in Parliamentary elections. In 1876, local landlords evicted him from his chapel as a result of these activities. The members of the congregation, who supported him, were also evicted	289	William Thomas (Gwilym Marles)	0
11,104,985	# Obetrol Obetrol was the brand name of a drug combining several amphetamine salts indicated for the treatment of exogenous obesity. It was originally sold by the American company Obetrol Pharmaceuticals. Obetrol was a popular diet pill in America in the 1950s and 1960s. The original formulation of amphetamine mixed salts and methamphetamine was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on January 19, 1960, under the name Obetrol. Indicated for exogenous obesity, between 1965 and 1973, Obetrol was marketed in 10 mg and 20 mg strength through Obetrol Pharmaceuticals division of the American pharmaceutical company Rexar. When sold directly to physicians, Obetrol used the brand name Oby-Rex. ## Formulations ### Original In the 1950s, Obetrol was manufactured by Obetrol Pharmaceuticals, in Brooklyn, New York. The company later became a division of Rexar Pharmacal Corporation, which was also headquartered in Brooklyn. Sometime prior to 1972, Rexar Pharmacal moved its manufacturing facilities, including its Obetrol Pharmaceutical Division, to Valley Stream, New York. By the 1990s, Obetrol Pharmaceuticals had been wholly absorbed by Rexar Pharmacal and was no longer noted as a division of Rexar. In 1993, Rexar was acquired by Richwood Pharmaceuticals of Florence, Kentucky, which in 1995 merged with Shire Pharmaceuticals. The 1972 edition of the Physicians\' Desk Reference lists Obetrol containing (10 mg tablet): - 2.5 mg methamphetamine saccharate - 2.5 mg methamphetamine hydrochloride - 2.5 mg racemic amphetamine sulfate - 2.5 mg dextroamphetamine sulfate Obetrol was also available in 20 mg tablets which contained twice the quantity of its ingredients, in the same proportions. The 10 mg tablets were blue, and the 20 mg were orange. Both were inscribed with the letters, \"OP\". In 1970 the FDA issued an order requiring new drug applications for previously approved amphetamine products. The FDA was critical of combinations of amphetamines and non-amphetamines, but also considered amphetamine and methamphetamine mixtures a combination drug, and required the ingredients to be effective and safe individually and in combination. In September 1973 the FDA withdrew approval for Obetrol under the FDA Drug Efficacy Study Implementation program. The FDA cited the research submitted was vague, subjective, lacking controls or poorly controlled, incomplete, did not test individual ingredients, and had other deficiencies. ### Modified Because FDA considered combinations of amphetamine and dextroamphetamine salt a single entity, Rexar simply reformulated Obetrol to exclude methamphetamine salts and continued to sell this new formulation under the same Obetrol brand name. This new unapproved formulation was later rebranded and sold as Adderall by Richwood after it acquired Rexar resulting in FDA warning in 1994. Richwood resubmitted this formulation as NDA 11-522 and Adderall gained FDA approval for the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder on February 13, 1996. The reformulated Obetrol (and Adderall) contained equal portions of: - Dextroamphetamine sulfate - Dextroamphetamine saccharine - Amphetamine sulfate - Amphetamine aspartate These tablets were also blue and orange, and were inscribed with the numbers \"32\" and \"33\" respectively. When Richwood acquired Rexar, the drug\'s name was changed from Obetrol to Adderall, and the drug was marketed for use in the treatment of Attention Deficit Disorder (in both children and adults). The old Rexar facility underwent extensive renovations and improvements, and continued to manufacture the drug for several years. During these years, the drug Adderall was identical to the most recent formulation of Obetrol, except that the inscription on the pills was changed to \"AD\". Sometime after 2000, Shire closed the Rexar manufacturing facility, discontinued immediate-release Adderall and outsourced Adderall XR (extended-release) to a manufacturer in North Carolina. Other companies had begun manufacturing generic versions of Adderall, and the trade name was eventually sold to Barr Pharmaceuticals (acquired by Teva in 2008). There is no drug commercially marketed called Obetrol at this time, nor has there been since Richwood acquired Rexar Pharmacal. ## Abuse The ready availability of methamphetamine-based medications in the 1960s led to their use and abuse as recreational drugs. Obetrol was the recreational drug of choice for artist Andy Warhol. Obetrol was abused by a character named Chris Fogle in David Foster Wallace\'s novel The Pale King. \"Obetrolling\" or \"doubling\" were the terms used by the character to refer to getting wired on Obetrol, which increased his self-awareness and made him feel alive	702	Obetrol	0
11,104,989	# Octavian Paler Octavian Paler (`{{IPA\|ro\|oktaviˈan ˈpalər}}`{=mediawiki} or `{{IPA\|ro\|ˈpaler\|}}`{=mediawiki}; July 2, 1926 -- May 7, 2007) was a Romanian writer, journalist, politician in Communist Romania, and civil society activist in post-1989 Romania. ## Education Paler was born in Lisa, Brașov County. He was educated at Spiru Haret High School in Bucharest. In the summer of 1944, one week before graduating the 7th grade, he was forced to leave the school because of an argument with his uncle and Spiru Haret\'s school headmaster George Șerban. Octavian Paler moved on to Radu Negru High School in Făgăraș, where he studied literature for his final examination. He graduated in 1945 with magna cum laude and outstanding results in philosophy, Latin and Greek. He sat the final examination in Sibiu in the same year. Paler went on to study Philosophy and Law at the University of Bucharest between 1945 and 1949. ## Political activity {#political_activity} Paler was a substitute member in the Central Committee of the Romanian Communist Party from 1974 to 1979, and a member of the Great National Assembly for the Vaslui constituency from 1980 to 1985. However, he was persecuted by the Romanian secret service agency, the Securitate, because of his pro-western views and criticism of Romanian Communist Party, including Nicolae Ceaușescu. He was not allowed to leave his home and suffered restrictions in his artistic work. After the Romanian Revolution and the fall of Ceaușescu in 1989, Paler continued his anti-communist activity as a founding member of the Group for Social Dialogue (Grupul de Dialog Social), together with Ana Blandiana and Gabriel Liiceanu amongst others. During his last years he was an intense critic of Romanian politicians and politics. ## Journalism The bulk of his career occurred during the Communist regime, as journalist at the Romanian Radio from 1949 to 1961, vice-president of the Romanian Radio and TV Broadcasting committee from 1965 to 1970, and president of the Romanian Journalists Council in 1976. He worked as a Senior Editor at the influential newspaper România Liberă from 1970 to 1983. After 1989, Paler received public appreciation for his journalistic work and political activism and was appointed as the chief editor of România Liberă. He also published with Cotidianul and Ziua, and made appearances on public TV discussing politics and morality. ## Death Paler died of a heart attack on May 7, 2007 at the age of 80, and was buried with military honours in the Sfânta Vineri Cemetery in Bucharest. Conversations with Octavian Paler was published by Daniel Cristea-Enache days after his death. In his memory, a street in Făgăraș, the school in his native village, Lisa, and the municipal library in Făgăraș bear his name. ## Trivia Octavian Paler came in 93rd in a poll conducted by Romanian Television to find the \"greatest Romanians of all time\" in 2006	469	Octavian Paler	0
11,104,996	# Wooden ship model Wooden ship models or wooden model ships are scale representations of ships, constructed mainly of wood. This type of model has been built for over two thousand years. ## Basic types of wooden ship model construction {#basic_types_of_wooden_ship_model_construction} There are five basic types of construction used in building a wooden ship model hull: - Solid wood hull sawn and carved from a single block of wood. - Gluing together two thinner blocks of wood so that a block is formed with the seam vertical, so that the seam will show running down that surface of the block which is to be the deck. No advantage is gained by having the seam show along the sides of the hull. - Bread and Butter Cutting four or five thinner slabs of wood (the Bread) to be glued (the Butter) later into a laminated block. In this case, the slabs will be oriented so that they sit one on top of the other. - Plank on bulkhead, a technique in which a series of shaped bulkheads are placed along the keel to form a shaped stage which will be covered with planks to form the hull of the model. - Plank on frame In this technique, the model is built just as the full-size wooden ship is constructed. The keel is laid down in a manner which keeps it straight and true.. The sternpost and stem are erected, deadwood and strengthening pieces inserted, and a series of shaped frames are built and erected along the keel to form the internal framework of the model. The planks are then applied over the frame to form the external covering.	277	Wooden ship model	0

One can take drawings for the original ship to a blueprint service and have them blown up, or reduced to bring them to the new scale. For instance, if the drawings are in 1/4\" scale and you intend to build in 3/16\", tell the service to reduce them 25%. You can use the conversion table below to determine the percentage of change. You can easily work directly from the original drawings however, by changing scale each time you make a measurement. The equation for converting a measurement in one scale to that of another scale is D2 = D1 × F, where: - D1 = Dimension in the \"from-scale\" - D2 = Dimension in the \"to-scale\" - F = Conversion factor between scales Example: A yardarm is 6 inches long in 3/16\" scale. Find its length in 1/8\" scale. - F = .67 (from table) - D2 = 6\" × .67 = 4.02 = 4\" It is easier to make measurements in the metric system and then multiply them by the scale conversion factor. Scales are expressed in fractional inches, but fractions themselves are harder to work with than metric measurements. For example, a hatch measures 1\" wide on the draft. You are building in 3/16\" scale. Measuring the hatch in metric, you measure 25 mm. The conversion factor for 1/4\" to 3/16\", according to the conversion table is .75. So 25 mm × .75 = 18.75 mm, or about 19 mm. That is the hatch size in 3/16\" scale. Conversion is a fairly simple task once you start measuring in metric and converting according to the scale. There is a simple conversion factor that allows you to determine the approximate size of a model by taking the actual measurements of the full-size ship and arriving at a scale factor. It is a rough way of deciding whether you want to build a model that is about two feet long, three feet long, or four feet long. Here is a ship model conversion example using a real ship, the Hancock. This is a frigate appearing in Chappelle\'s History of American Sailing Ships. In this example we want to estimate its size as a model. We find that the length is given at 136 ft 7 in, which rounds off to 137 feet. ------------ ---------------------- 1/8 scale Feet divided by 8 3/16 scale Feet divided by 5.33 1/4 scale Feet divided by 4 ------------ ---------------------- To convert feet (of the actual ship) to the number of inches long that the model will be, use the factors in the table on the right. To find the principal dimensions (length, height, and width) of a (square-rigged) model in 1/8\" scale, then: 1. Find scaled length by dividing 137 by 8 = 17.125\" 2. Find 50% of 17.125 and add it to 17.125 (8.56 + 17.125 = 25.685, about 25.5) 3. Typically, the height of this model will be its length less 10%, or about 23.1/2\" 4. Typically, the beam of this model will be its length divided by 4, or about 6½\" Although this technique allows you to judge the approximate length of a proposed model from its true footage, only square-riggers will fit the approximate height and beam by the above factors. To approximate these dimensions on other craft, scale the drawings from which you found the length and arrive at her mast heights and beam	647	Wooden ship model	1

He was the crown prince but pre-deceased his father, thus the next pharaoh was his younger brother Amenhotep I. His sister was Ahmose-Meritamun. As his father ascended the throne at the age of 10, Ahmose-ankh must have been born well into the reign. Secondly, he seems to have died at the second part of his fathers reign which lasted 25 years. As a result, Ahmose-ankh was most likely around 20 years old or younger when he died. ## Attestation - Harari, ASAE 56 \\| A stela which depicts him with his parents (Luxor Museum)	133	Ahmose-ankh	0
11,105,033	# Fang Xuanling Fang Qiao (579 -- 18 August 648), courtesy name Xuanling, better known as Fang Xuanling (`{{zh\|t=房玄齡}}`{=mediawiki}), posthumously known as Duke Wenzhao of Liang, was a Chinese statesman and writer who served as a chancellor under Emperor Taizong in the early Tang dynasty. He was the lead editor of the historical record Book of Jin (covering the history of the Jin dynasty (266--420)) and one of the most celebrated Tang dynasty chancellors. He and his colleague, Du Ruhui, were often described as role models for chancellors in imperial China. ## During the Sui dynasty {#during_the_sui_dynasty} Fang Xuanling was born in 579, shortly before the founding of the Sui dynasty in 581, during Sui\'s predecessor state, Northern Zhou. His great-grandfather Fang Yi (房翼) was a general, official, and hereditary count under the Northern Wei dynasty, and his grandfather Fang Xiong (房熊) was also an official. His father Fang Yanqian (房彥謙) was a county magistrate during the Sui dynasty. Fang Xuanling was said to be intelligent and well-learned in his youth, and particularly skillful at calligraphy. It was said that once, when he accompanied his father to the capital Chang\'an, the state was peaceful, and the popular sentiment was that Sui would last a long time. However, Fang Xuanling secretly opined to his father: Fang Yanqian was surprised by his son\'s opinion, which, however, eventually turned out to be prophetic. When he was 17, he was successful at the imperial examination, and he became a military officer. He particularly impressed the deputy minister of civil service, Gao Xiaoji (高孝基). However, it appeared that he did not serve long, as his father became ill, and the illness lasted 10 years, during which Fang Xuanling attended to him earnestly. After his father\'s death, he fasted for five days. He later became the magistrate of Xicheng County (隰城, in modern Lüliang, Shanxi). In 617, when the general Li Yuan rebelled against the rule of Emperor Wen\'s son Emperor Yang, one of Li Yuan\'s major generals was his son Li Shimin. Fang Xuanling went to Li Shimin\'s camp and offered his services. It was said that as soon as Li Shimin met Fang, they became like old friends, and Li Shimin invited him to serve on staff. Fang served Li Shimin faithfully, and wherever Li Shimin campaigned, while his staff members would collect treasures, Fang spent the time interviewing the people of the area and retained the capable people to add to Li Shimin\'s staff. In 618, after news arrived at Chang\'an (which Li Yuan had taken in winter 617 and where he declared Emperor Yang\'s grandson Yang You the Prince of Dai emperor (as Emperor Gong)) that Emperor Yang had been killed in a coup at Jiangdu (江都, in modern Yangzhou, Jiangsu), led by the general Yuwen Huaji, Li Yuan had Yang You yield the throne to him, establishing the Tang dynasty as its Emperor Gaozu. He created Li Shimin, the Prince of Qin. Fang continued to serve on Li Shimin\'s staff.	499	Fang Xuanling	0
11,105,033	# Fang Xuanling ## During Emperor Gaozu\'s reign {#during_emperor_gaozus_reign} In 621, when Li Shimin defeated Tang\'s major enemy Wang Shichong the Emperor of Zheng and captured the Zheng capital Luoyang (which had served as Sui\'s eastern capital), it was said that he sent Fang to the offices of Sui\'s legislative and examination bureaus of government to try to preserve Sui archives, but Fang\'s mission turned out to be unsuccessful as the archives had already been destroyed by Wang. Later in 621, when Emperor Gaozu, awarding Li Shimin for his great accomplishments, bestowed on him the unprecedented title of \"Grand General of Heavenly Tactics\" (`{{zhi\|c=天策上將\|p=Tiance Shangjiang}}`{=mediawiki}), Li Shimin built a mansion where he housed those staff members with the best literary talent, supplying them with the best food and supplies and had them conduct research and writing. Fang was part of this establishment, along with, among others, the fellow future chancellors Du Ruhui and Xu Jingzong. When Du was subsequently commissioned as a prefectural secretary general, Fang told Li Shimin that Du was an uncommon talent that he should do everything he could to retain, and Li Shimin thus persuaded Emperor Gaozu to allow Du to remain on his staff. It was said that Fang was capable in planning and strategizing, but not decisive in his decisions, while Du was capable in making quick and correct decisions, and they divided their strategical responsibilities while on Li Shimin\'s staff in that manner. (This eventually led to the Chinese proverb \"Fang plans and Du decides\" (`{{zhi\|c=房謀杜斷\|p=Fang mou Du duan}}`{=mediawiki}), after they became renowned.) By 626, Li Shimin was locked in an intense rivalry with his older brother, Li Jiancheng the Crown Prince, and Fang and Du often suggested that he act first against Li Jiancheng. As both Li Jiancheng and another brother who supported Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji the Prince of Qi, feared Fang\'s and Du\'s strategic capabilities, they falsely accused both Fang and Du and had them demoted out of Li Shimin\'s staff. In summer 626, when Li Shimin decided to act against Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, however, he summoned Fang and Du to his mansion. Fang and Du, initially fearing Emperor Gaozu\'s orders forbidding them to serve Li Shimin, declined. In anger, Li Shimin sent the general Yuchi Gong to summon Fang and Du, with directions if they declined again, to kill them. Yuchi, however, was able to persuade them that Li Shimin was in fact intending on acting against Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and so Fang and Du put on disguises as Taoist monks and were able to get to Li Shimin\'s mansions, where they assisted Li Shimin in planning the ambush against Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji. Li Shimin subsequently ambushed his brothers as Xuanwu Gate and killed them, and then effectively forced Emperor Gaozu to create him crown prince. Once he was created crown prince, Fang and Du were restored to honored positions on his staff, and soon, Fang was made the Zhongshu Ling (中書令) --- the head of the legislative bureau and a post considered one for a chancellor. Two months later, Emperor Gaozu yielded the throne to Li Shimin (as Emperor Taizong).	528	Fang Xuanling	1
11,105,033	# Fang Xuanling ## During Emperor Taizong\'s reign {#during_emperor_taizongs_reign} Later in 626, when Eastern Tujue\'s Jiali Khan Ashina Duobi launched a major incursion into Tang territory, reaching all the way to Chang\'an, Fang Xuanling, along with Gao Shilian, attended to Emperor Taizong as he personally met Ashina Duobi to promise additional tributes, to induce Ashina Duobi to withdraw. Later in 626, when Emperor Taizong personally ranked the contributions of the generals and officials in order to grant them fiefs, Emperor Taizong ranked five of them --- Fang, Zhangsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Yuchi Gong, and Hou Junji to be contributors of the highest grade, and Fang was created the Duke of Han. When Emperor Gaozu\'s cousin Li Shentong (李神通) the Prince of Huai\'an, himself a key general, objected to being ranked below Fang and Du, stating that Fang and Du, in particular, were only bureaucrats, Emperor Taizong pointed out that it was with their strategies that he was able to become emperor, Li Shentong relented, which led to the other objectors to also cease their objections. Later in 627, under Emperor Taizong\'s direction, Fang carried out a major simplification of the central government, reducing the number of officials at the central government to 634. In 629, Fang, along with Du, became Puye (僕射), the head of the important executive bureau of the government (尚書省, Shangshu Sheng). It was said that at this time that the Fang and Du became known as the model for chancellors. It was also said that Fang, even though he had reached the pinnacle of officials\' careers, was still very humble before the emperor, and whenever he received a rebuke, he would act as if a disaster was coming. He also became responsible for organizing the imperial archives and the writing of official histories. Later that year, the assistant imperial censor Quan Wanji (權萬紀) accused Fang and Wang Gui of being partial in their selections of officials, and Emperor Taizong initially ordered Hou to investigate. However, with the urging of another chancellor, Wei Zheng, who pointed out that Fang and Wang were trusted officials given important responsibilities, and it was inappropriate to pick on details of what they did, Emperor Taizong stopped the investigation. In 630, when Emperor Taizong began to have his crown prince Li Chengqian formally rule on a number of matters of state, he commissioned Fang and Li Gang (李綱) to sit with the Crown Prince and assist him in making the decisions. Also in 630, his title was changed to Duke of Wei. In 636, for reasons unknown, Fang was briefly removed from his post and returned to his mansion. When Emperor Taizong\'s wife Empress Zhangsun (Zhangsun Wuji\'s sister) died later that year, she, in her final words, pointed out to Emperor Taiizong that Fang had faithfully served him throughout his career and should not be removed. After her death, Emperor Taizong restored Fang to his post. In 637, as part of Emperor Taizong\'s scheme to bestow prefectures on his relatives and great generals and officials as their permanent domains, Fang\'s title was changed to Duke of Liang, and he was given the post of prefect of Songzhou, to be inherited by his heirs, although he did not actually report to Songzhou but remained at Chang\'an as chancellor. Soon, however, with many objections to the system, the strongest of which came from Zhangsun Wuji, Emperor Taizong cancelled the scheme, although Fang\'s title remained Duke of Liang. Also in 637, a major revision of the laws, led by Fang, was completed, and the penal laws were said to be far more lenient than the Sui penal code, on which Fang\'s revision was based, with 500 statutory sections and 20 grades of penalty. Also that year, the code of rites, authored by him and Wei Zheng, was also completed. In 638, Emperor Taizong, celebrating the birth of a grandson, held a feast for imperial officials, at which he made the comment: He then awarded both Fang and Wei an imperial sword. In 639, Emperor Taizong made Fang a senior advisor to Li Chengqian, ordering him to bow to Fang as he would to Emperor Taizong. However, Fang was humble and never gave the Crown Prince any opportunity to bow to him, an act of humility which was praised. By this point, Fang\'s children were also highly honored, and his second son Fang Yi\'ai (房遺愛) married Emperor Taizong\'s daughter Princess Gaoyang, while his daughter married Emperor Taizong\'s brother Li Yuanjia (李元嘉) the Prince of Han. In 641, Fang and Gao Shilian drew rebuke from Emperor Taizong when they inquired the deputy imperial architect, Dou Desu (竇德素) of imperial construction projects --- which Emperor Taizong saw as an encroachment on his liberty. However, Wei pointed out that chancellors were supposed to be responsible for all affairs of state, and Emperor Taizong, realizing that he had erred, was humbled. in 642, Fang was awarded the additional highly honorable title Sikong (司空) --- one of the Three Excellencies. Later that year, when Emperor Taizong was debating whether warring with Xueyantuo or making peace by marrying his daughter Princess Xinxing to Xueyantuo\'s Zhenzhu Khan Yi\'nan, Fang was a proponent of peace, and Emperor Taizong agreed, although Emperor Taizong later changed his mind and broke the marriage treaty. In 643, when Emperor Taizong commissioned the Portraits at Lingyan Pavilion to commemorate the 24 great contributors to Tang rule, Fang\'s was one of the portraits commissioned. Later in 643, when Li Chengqian, fearing that Emperor Taizong would depose him in favor of his more favored brother Li Tai the Prince of Wei, was revealed to have plotted with Hou Junji to overthrow Emperor Taizong, Emperor Taizong had Zhangsun, Fang, Xiao Yu, Li Shiji, along with the responsible officials at the legislative and examination bureaus and the supreme court, investigate the matter. They confirmed Li Chengqian\'s guilt, and Li Chengqian was subsequently deposed, although Emperor Taizong, believing that Li Tai\'s machinations were responsible for Li Chengqian\'s downfall, exiled Li Tai as well and created another son, Li Zhi, crown prince. He subsequently made Zhangsun, Fang, and Xiao Li Zhi\'s senior advisors. Later that year, Emperor Taizong requested to read the official history that Fang had written about during his reign, and Fang initially resisted, stating that it would set a bad precedent (as previously, it was considered inappropriate for emperors to read histories of their own reign, lest that historians be hindered from recording incidents accurately). Emperor Taizong disagreed, and Fang thus submitted what he and his staff had written. Emperor Taizong noticed that Fang had avoided some of the more sensitive parts of the Incident at Xuanwu Gate, and he ordered Fang to write a more complete and less censored version. In 645, when Emperor Taizong personally led a campaign against Goguryeo, Fang was put in charge of the capital. It was said that there was an incident where a man approached Fang and stated, \"I am here to report that you are committing treason.\" Fang bound him and delivered him to Emperor Taizong. When the man arrived at Emperor Taizong\'s camp and accused Fang of treason, Emperor Taizong immediately executed the man and sent an edict to Fang, rebuking him for lack of confidence in himself, stating, \"If something like this happens again, you should carry out the decisive act yourself.\"	1,220	Fang Xuanling	2
11,105,033	# Fang Xuanling ## During Emperor Taizong\'s reign {#during_emperor_taizongs_reign} In or around 646, Fang was again, for reasons unknown in history but described to be minor reasons, removed from his post and returned to his mansion. After Chu Suiliang submitted a petition stating that Fang\'s faithfulness should not be forgotten, Emperor Taizong visited Fang\'s mansion -- a visit that Fang anticipated and had cleaned his house for -- and he had Fang accompany him on the imperial wagon back to palace. Fang was said to be so influential in Emperor Taizong\'s decision-making by this stage that an amusing incident occurred in 647, involving the official Li Wei (李緯). Emperor Taizong, then at his summer palace Cuiwei Palace (翠微宮, in the Qinling Mountains), leaving Fang again in charge of Chang\'an, had commissioned Li Wei as the minister of finances. When a messenger arrived from Chang\'an, Emperor Taizong asked the messenger what Fang had said about Li Wei, and the messenger responded, \"When Fang Xuanling heard that Li Wei was made a minister, all he stated was, \'Li Wei has a handsome beard.\'\" Emperor Taizong, realizing that Fang was making a veiled comment that Li was not a proper minister, demoted Li Wei to the post of prefect of Luo Prefecture (洛州, roughly Luoyang). In 648, the Book of Jin, the official history of Jin dynasty, with Fang as its lead editor, was completed. Also in 648, when Emperor Taizong was at another summer palace, Yuhua Palace (玉華宮, in modern Tongchuan, Shaanxi), he again left Fang in charge of Chang\'an, when Fang grew ill. Emperor Taizong summoned him to Yuhua Palace and had the imperial servants attend to him. For a while, Fang got better, and then grew worse. In his illness, Fang believed that the only danger that the empire faced at that point was Emperor Taizong\'s anger at Goguryeo, and therefore wrote an earnest petition urging the cessation of campaigns against Goguryeo. When Emperor Taizong saw the petition, he stated to Princess Gaoyang, \"He is this ill, and yet he still worries so much about my empire.\" He personally visited Fang to bid farewell, and in fall 649, Fang died at Yuhua Palace and was buried near Empress Zhangsun\'s tomb (where Emperor Taizong would eventually himself be buried as well). The Tang dynasty historian Liu Fang (柳芳) made these comments about Fang and Du Ruhui: However, the honors the Fang clan received would not last long after Fang Xuanling\'s death. Emperor Taizong himself died in 649 and was succeeded by Li Zhi (as Emperor Gaozong). In 653, Fang Yi\'ai and Princess Gaoyang were accused of plotting, along with the general Xue Wanche (薛萬徹), Emperor Gaozong\'s uncle Li Yuanjing (李元景) the Prince of Jing, Li Ke the Prince of Wu, and another brother-in-law of Emperor Gaozong, Chai Lingwu (柴令武), to overthrow Emperor Gaozong and making Li Yuanjing emperor. Fang Yi\'ai was executed, and his older brother Fang Yizhi (房遺直) was demoted to be a county sheriff in modern Guangdong. Fang Xuanling, whom Emperor Gaozong had ordered to be worshipped at the imperial shrine with Emperor Taizong, was removed from the imperial shrine. ## Popular culture {#popular_culture} - Portrayed by Park Young-ji in 2006-2007 SBS TV series Yeon Gaesomun. - Ancestor of Jackie Chan	542	Fang Xuanling	3

11,105,039	# Janko Kráľ Park Janko Kráľ Park (Sad Janka Kráľa, literally Janko Kráľ Orchard/Garden; formerly called Städtischer Aupark (in German), is a park in Bratislava\'s Petržalka borough. It is located in the northern part of Petržalka, bordered by the Danube in the north, the Old Bridge access road in the east, a main road in the south and the Nový Most access road in the west. The park is one of the oldest municipal parks in Europe. The statue of Janko Kráľ is situated in the park. The park was established in 1774--76 with the intention of creating a park for the public. Under the influence of Baroque classicism, the walks were set up in the shape of an eight-leg star and trees were planted along them. Each allée was named after its corresponding species of tree (alder, maple, willow, etc.). The park attained its present-day shape in 1839, and was revamped in the 1970s. The Petržalka Stadium, home to the FC Artmedia Bratislava football club, was located near the park, before its demolition in 2012. The Arena Theatre is also located nearby. The Gothic tower (Gotická veža) is the prominent architectural structure in Janko Kráľ Park. It is the primary garden arbour and was previously a Franciscan church tower. This Gothic tower was built in the early 15th century at the intersection of the South facing Franciscan church: carved by Michael Chnam. In 1897, an earthquake damaged the upper part of the tower, requiring that it be rebuilt, which was done in a Neogothic style by project architect Frigyes Schulek. The original top of the tower, after the earthquake, was placed in Janko Kráľ Park, where it is now an arbour	282	Janko Kráľ Park	0

11,105,072	# Anti-Jacobin Review `{{Conservatism UK\|Media}}`{=mediawiki} *The Anti-Jacobin Review and Magazine, or, Monthly Political and Literary Censor, was a British conservative political journal active from 1798 to 1821. Founded by John Gifford after the cancellation of William Gifford\'s periodical Anti-Jacobin, the journal contained essays, reviews, and satirical engravings. Its content has been described as \"often scurrilous\" and \"ultra-Tory\" and was a prominent element of British hostility to Jacobinism and the broader ideals of the French Revolution. ## History The first edition was published on 1 August 1798 and was advertised in The Times* as \"containing Original Criticism; a Review of the Reviewers; Miscellaneous Matter in Prose and Verse, Lists of Marriages, Births, Deaths and Promotions; and a Summary of Foreign and Domestic Politics.\" Gifford served as its editor until 1806. The periodical was covertly funded by the British government. ## Positions Gifford called the periodical a champion of \"religion, morality, and social order, as supported by the existing establishments, ecclesiastical and civil, of this country. The periodical promoted conspiracy theories of attempts to establish Jacobinism in Britain, accusing the Monthly Review, the Analytical Review and The Critical Review of spreading Jacobinism through \"secret channels, disguised in various ways.\" It supported the passage of the Unlawful Societies Act 1799 and the Combination Act 1799, arguing that the state needed the \"wisdom to repress\" in order to effectively defeat \"domestic traitors.\" It also opposed the Irish Rebellion of 1798. ## Reception The periodical denounced reformers, especially the Evangelicals, and greatly angered them, as prominent politician and campaigner William Wilberforce made clear in 1800: > It is a most mischievous publication, which, by dint of assuming a tone of the highest loyalty and attachment to our establishment in church and state, secures a prejudice in its favour, and has declared war against what I think the most respectable and most useful of all orders of men---the serious clergy of the Church of England. . . . Its opposition to the evangelical clergy is carried on in so venomous a way, and with so much impudence, and so little regard to truth, that the mischief it does is very great indeed. It accuses them in the plainest terms, and sometimes by name, as being disaffected both to church and state	375	Anti-Jacobin Review	0
11,105,073	# Ahmose-Sitamun Ahmose-Sitamun or just Sitamun was a princess of the early Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. ## Etymology Her name Ahmose-Sitamun (sꜣt-jmn; Sat-Amun/Satamun) means \"Child of the Moon, Daughter of Amun\". ## Biography Sitamun was the daughter of Pharaoh Ahmose I and sister of Amenhotep I. Her titles were: King\'s Daughter (sꜣt-nsw); King\'s Sister (snt-nsw); God\'s Wife (ḥmt-nṯr) Her name was written in cartouche. By Year 18 of Ahmose I (1570-1546 BC high chronology), her title string included King\'s Daughter and God\'s Wife. When her brother Amenhotep I (1545-1526 BC high chronology) became king, the title King\'s Sister was added to her title string. ## Attestations ### Barracco 16 {#barracco_16} A stela belonging to a subordinate of King\'s Daughter Satamun. ### Hannover 1935.200.209 {#hannover_1935.200.209} A limestone stela dating to Year 18 of Ahmose I where she is King\'s Daughter and God\'s Wife. ### Benson, Gourlay, Temple, 297-299 (IV), pl.

The parents taught the boys to care for the poor and to use their possessions to aid others. Desideratus became chancellor for King Clotaire and sought to eliminate simony and heresy in Clotaire\'s lands. He became archdeacon at Bourges. Desideratus wished to retire to a monastery but Clotaire argued that he should put the needs of his subjects ahead of himself. In 549 he succeeded Arcadius as Bishop of Bourges. As bishop he often mediated disputes in the region and managed to reconcile Anjou and Poitou, who had been in conflict.

11,105,212	# Nuptial flight Nuptial flight is an important phase in the reproduction of most ant, termite, and some bee species. It is also observed in some fly species, such as Rhamphomyia longicauda. During the flight, virgin queens mate with males and then land to start a new colony, or, in the case of honey bees, continue the succession of an existing hived colony. The winged version of ants and termites are known as alates. ## Before the flight {#before_the_flight} A mature ant colony seasonally produces winged virgin queens and males, called alates. Unfertilized eggs develop into males. Fertilized eggs usually develop into wingless, sterile workers, but may develop into virgin queens if the larvae receive special attention. Within a few days after they have emerged (eclosed) from the pupa case, males are \"quickly converted into single-purpose sexual missiles.\" Young queens and males stay in their parent colony until conditions are right for the nuptial flight. The flight requires clear weather since rain is disruptive for flying insects. Different colonies of the same species often use environmental cues to synchronize the release of males and queens so that they can mate with individuals from other nests, thus reducing inbreeding. The actual \"take off\" from the parent colony is also often synchronized to overwhelm their predators. ## During the flight {#during_the_flight} Typically the virgin queens and males first scatter to ensure outcrossing. The queens then release pheromones to attract males. However, the queens often try to escape the males, allowing only the fastest and the fittest males to mate. Mating takes place during flight. One queen usually mates with several males. The sperm is stored in a special organ, known as a spermatheca, in the queen\'s abdomen, and lasts throughout her lifetime. This can be as long as 20 years, during which time the sperm can be used to fertilize tens of millions of eggs. ## After the flight {#after_the_flight} The males have evolved for the single purpose of inseminating the queen. During \"the quick and violent mating,\" the male places his internal genitalia into the genital chamber of the queen and quickly dies. The young mated queens land and, in the case of most ants and all termites, remove their wings. They then attempt to found a new colony. The details of this vary from species to species, but typically involve the excavation of the colony\'s first chamber and the subsequent laying of eggs. From this point the queen continuously lays eggs which hatch into larvae, exclusively destined to develop into worker ants. The queen usually nurses the first brood alone. After the first workers appear, the queen\'s role in the colony typically becomes one of exclusive (and generally continuous) egg-laying. For an example of a colony founding process, see Atta sexdens. The young queens have an extremely high failure rate. During its lifetime a very large ant colony can send out millions of virgin queens. Assuming that the total number of ant colonies in the area remains constant, on average only one of these queens succeeds. The rest are destroyed by predators (most notably other ants), environmental hazards or failures in raising the first brood at various stages of the process. This strict selection ensures that the queen has to be both extremely fit and extremely lucky to pass on her genes to the next generation. <File:Lasius> Niger winged queen.jpg\\|Queen with wings <File:Lasius> Niger wingless queen.jpg\\|Queen with her wings torn off ## Variations Not all ants follow the basic pattern described above. In army ants only males are alates, having wings. They fly out from their parent colony in search of other colonies where wingless virgin queens wait for them. A colony with an old queen and one or more mated young queens then divides, each successful queen taking a share of the workers. The reason for this behavior is the fact that army ants do not have a physical nest. The queens are thus absolutely dependent on workers to protect them. Another variation is found in species with multi-queen colonies, such as Solenopsis invicta. The males and virgin queens mate and the queens then often return to the parent colony, where they then remain. This process greatly increases the success rate of virgin queens and allows the creation of extremely large supercolonies. The colony also becomes essentially immortal as it is no longer dependent on the continued health of a single queen. This allows Solenopsis invicta colonies to become entrenched in their surroundings, achieving a dominant position in the ecosystem. However, the price for this is inbreeding and the resulting loss of adaptability. This may result in sudden collapses in population when the environment changes or a new predator or parasite is introduced.	784	Nuptial flight	0
11,105,212	# Nuptial flight ## Flying ant day {#flying_ant_day} \"Flying ant day\" is an informal term for the day on which future queen ants emerge from the nest to begin their nuptial flight, although citizen science based research has demonstrated that nuptials flights are not particularly spatially or temporally synchronised. However, the number of ants flying on certain days can be large enough to be detected by weather service radar systems, resembling rain showers. In most species, the male ants fly alongside them, although they are smaller and less noticeable. The queens fly around -- some covering very long distances, others only a few meters -- then mate and drop to the ground, where they lose their wings and attempt to start a new ant colony. The mass of flying insects often attracts the attention of predators such as birds, and it is common to see flocks gorging on the readily available food. This phenomenon occurs in many colonies simultaneously when local weather conditions are appropriate, to reduce the effectiveness of predation, and to ensure that the queens and males from different colonies stand a chance of meeting and interbreeding. It therefore has the appearance of being a \'timed\' event or that the ants somehow communicate. However neither of these is likely to be the case -- it could be simply a common response to temperature, humidity and wind speed and time of year	233	Nuptial flight	1

Webb said in an interview that Isitt had told them their genitals would all be pixelated in the final film, and was not aware until the screening that this was not the case. Colman and Webb started legal proceedings against the filmmaker, but these were eventually abandoned when the actors concluded it was too late and the lengthy process would prevent them from \"pretending it didn\'t happen\"	195	Debbie Isitt	1

11,105,307	# Ashen Victor *Ashen Victor, known in Japan as `{{nihongo\|'''''Haisha'''''\|灰者\|}}`{=mediawiki}, is a futuristic manga by Yukito Kishiro, taking place in the same universe as his Battle Angel Alita* series, specifically in the Scrapyard. ## Plot The story takes place before the events of Battle Angel Alita and revolves around Snev, a motorballer nicknamed the \"Crash King\" due to the way his races usually end. Although a promising athlete, even termed a \"prodigy\" by his mentors, Snev lacks the confidence to advance his career following a traumatic accident on the track six months earlier. ## Characters Snev : The protagonist and title character, Snev is a young and talented motorball player who has not finished a single race since he started racing for Team Spandau, having crashed each time. However, his brain has remarkably remained intact, enabling him to race again and again. Eventually cut from Team Spandau, he is soon brought back because he has gained a following among motorball fans who actually prefer to see and experience a player crash rather than win a race. Beretta : A beautiful prostitute and Snev\'s closest friend. Despite Snev\'s record, she believes in him and predicts an eventual return for him to motorball which includes victory. Holmegolud : Team Spandau\'s tiny engineer, Holmegolud is the only person on the team who still believes earnestly in Snev. He ends up playing a critical role in uncovering the reasons behind Snev\'s continuous crashes. Lorna : Beretta\'s friend. A prostitute herself, Lorna was entrusted by Beretta with seeking Snev out with information that could be of help to him prior to her death. Ben : Team Spandau\'s manager, Ben was approached six months ago by the team doctor with a plan to make some chips by testing two drugs for the Megil Corporation, \"Accel\" and \"Adam\", on Dragunov and Snev, respectively. He has a tendency to be forgetful, which results in his and the team\'s undoing. Dragunov : Snev\'s sole teammate on Team Spandau, Dragunov is his complete opposite in terms of attitude and racing record, being an arrogant player on track to becoming the next champion. Completely contemptuous of Snev, Dragunov uses the drug \"Accel\" to accelerate his nervous system. The Marathon Man : An unknown, mysterious, and probably insane man who, without warning, suddenly jumped onto the motorball track during Snev\'s debut race six months ago wearing a runner\'s outfit and began running directly into the path of the players, laughing all the while. He was killed when Snev plowed into him at 300 km/h. The Marathon Man now manifests himself as a violent, self-destructive element of Snev\'s consciousness that compels him to crash each time he races. ## Depiction of motorball {#depiction_of_motorball} Motorball in Ashen Victor is still focused largely on the players\' racing ability. Despite his dismal racing record, Snev impressed those who watched him by performing exceptionally during his tryouts, although it is suggested that talented players like him are becoming a rarity. Players are not explicitly depicted as fighting during a race, and are not yet equipped with the variety of weapons that are seen later on in Battle Angel Alita. However, the sport is moving in a more violent direction driven by the bloodlust of the audience. Ben mentions that motorball is no longer a sport and that the audience now comes more for the violence. Holmegolud, who is much older than he is, also states that motorball is now \"all carnage and no skill.\" This trend towards an increasing desire for violence on the part of the spectators is also reflected in the results of a viewer poll conducted by the owner of Team Spandau, which finds that their monitor viewers prefer to experience a crash rather than an actual motorball victory. The use of performance-enhancing drugs is also becoming an accepted practice, as is shown in Dragunov\'s endorsement of the nervous system accelerant \"Accel\" and its rising popularity. He continues to use the drug after the dissolution of Team Spandau until his retirement from motorball as a result of abusing it	675	Ashen Victor	0

11,105,350	# Arrupe Jesuit High School Arrupe Jesuit High School is a private, Roman Catholic coeducational college-preparatory high school run by the USA Central and Southern Province of the Society of Jesus in Denver, Colorado, United States. Founded in 2003, it is part of the Cristo Rey Network and places students in business internships to help defray the cost of tuition. The school is run independently in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Denver. ## History Arrupe Jesuit High School was founded by the Missouri Province (renamed USA Central and Southern Province) of the Jesuits and business leaders in Denver as a school using the Cristo Rey model to serve economically disadvantaged students. The school was named after the former superior general of the Jesuit order, Father Pedro Arrupe. In early 2003, the school purchased the Holy Family Catholic School campus in northwest Denver to house the new program. The school opened in August 2003 with a class of ninth graders and added another grade each year until the 2006-2007 school year, which saw the school\'s first graduating class of 47 students. In 2017 it had a 10-year record of graduating all its students and having all of them accepted into college. Only 36% of Hispanics and 55% of African-Americans graduate from high school in Denver. To expand its enrollment, Arrupe Jesuit High completed an \$11-million building program in 2015, which added seven classrooms with advanced technology, student fitness and activities rooms, a new cafeteria, and additional office space. A new chapel was built in the former building, along with three new classrooms and office and work space. Arrupe was chosen as a successful school by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The Gates Foundation has also given \$18.9 million in support of Cristo Rey schools across the country. Each year some graduates of Jesuit schools who have finished college volunteer to assist at Arrupe, through the Alum Service Corps program. ## Curriculum Arrupe requires students to earn about two-thirds of the annual cost of their education through a corporate work-study program where students job-share entry-level positions, working five days a month from mid-August to early June. Students have 6 academic classes per day, and if they fail to do their homework they have mandatory study hall (7th Period). ## Extracurricular activities {#extracurricular_activities} Athletic teams at Arrupe compete at the 3A level in Colorado High School Activities Association-sanctioned competition. Teams are fielded in men\'s soccer, women\'s volleyball, men\'s and women\'s basketball, women\'s soccer, baseball, and cross-country	414	Arrupe Jesuit High School	0
11,105,375	# Mutnofret Mutnofret (\"Mut is Beautiful\"), also rendered as Mutneferet or Mutnefert, was a queen during the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. She was a secondary wife of Thutmose I and the mother of his successor Thutmose II; Thutmose I\'s chief wife, however, was his sister Queen Ahmose, the mother of Hatshepsut. Based on her title of King\'s Daughter, she is likely to have been a daughter of Ahmose I and a sister of Amenhotep I, who married the latter\'s successor Thutmose I. It is possible that she was also the mother of Thutmose I\'s other sons, Amenmose and Wadjmose. The connection of Thutmose I and Thutmose II to the earlier kings Ahmose and Amenhotep I (and also the mother of Wadjmose and Amenmose) was conjectured to have been Queen Ahmose in older and sometimes even current literature. However, the absence of the title King\'s Daughter among the titles of Queen Ahmose has been considered decisive in indicating she was not the daughter of an earlier king, and owed her primacy to being the sister (as indicated by her title King\'s Sister) of the new king Thutmose I, himself the son of non-reigning parents: his mother Senisonbe is titled only King\'s Mother. The admittedly rare attestation of the title King\'s Daughter for Mutnofret suggests it was she, not Queen Ahmose, who connected their husband Thutmose I to his immediate predecessors. Mutnofret was depicted in the Deir el-Bahri temple built by her grandson Thutmose III; on a stela found at the Ramesseum; on the colossus of her son; and a statue of her bearing a dedication by Thutmose II was found in Wadjmose\'s chapel. This suggests that Mutnofret was still alive during her son\'s reign	283	Mutnofret	0
11,105,382	# Hanging punctuation Hanging punctuation or exdentation is a microtypographic technique of typesetting punctuation marks and bullet points, most commonly quotation marks and hyphens, further towards the edge so that they do not disrupt the 'flow' of a body of text or 'break' the margin of alignment. It is so called because the punctuation appears to hang in the margin of the text and is not incorporated into the block or column of text. It is commonly used when text is fully justified. ## History The style was used by Gutenberg in the Gutenberg Bible, the first book printed in Europe. Few desktop publishing applications allow for automatic hanging punctuation. This often requires manual intervention by the designer or typographer, or the use of drawing software which supports this feature, or the use of sophisticated typesetting tools. PdfTeX, a variant of the TeX typesetting program, has microtypographic capabilities that allow for semi-automatic hanging punctuation. Arbortext APP (formerly 3B2), QuarkXPress, Adobe InDesign and Corel Ventura are desktop publishing applications which offer automatic support for hanging punctuation. The blogging platform Medium implemented hanging quotes in 2014. A proposal to add hanging punctuation property to CSS was added to the W3C Working Draft in 2018. It is supported in Safari 10+. ## Related concepts {#related_concepts} A related concept is optical margin alignment; letters such as W are set slightly into the margin to create an illusion of balance of white space	238	Hanging punctuation	0

One of its major distinguishing characteristics is the close collaboration with three other educational institutions on one campus: the Filmakademie\'s acclaimed Animationsinstitut (Institute of Animation and Visual Effects); the Atelier Ludwigsburg-Paris, an inter-university master-class on European film production and distribution hosted at the Filmakademie and in cooperation with notable French film school La Fémis in Paris and the National Film and Television School in London; and the neighbouring Academy of Performing Arts. The Filmakademie\'s international focus is another important aspect of its work. Renowned lecturers from all over the world regularly teach in Ludwigsburg, and exchange programmes with prestigious partner universities in Europe, North and South America, Africa, and Asia give students insights into foreign film worlds. Every year, the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg organizes a \"Hollywood Workshop" for selected students at the UCLA in Los Angeles as well as a binational short film project in collaboration with students from La Fémis. Incoming students from foreign universities will take part in a course called International Class that offers English-language teaching modules. ## Studies The project-oriented curriculum triggers learning by doing all the different stages of a film, television or interactive media production. More than 300 highly qualified experts from the film and media business instruct the students and take care of their projects. About 250 films of all genres and formats with top rankings on international festivals are produced every year by teams of students enrolled in advertising film, animation, cinematography, documentary film, editing, film and series production, film music, film sound, fiction film, interactive media, motion design, production design, screenwriting, and TV journalism. The Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg only admits students who have at least one of year of practical experience in the film and media business. In addition to the full-fledged study courses, the Filmakademie also offers an International Screen Acting Workshop for aspiring young actresses and actors. ## Rankings In 2003, the Art Directors Club awarded the Filmakademie the title of Germany\'s most creative university. In 2006, issue 22 of FOCUS, the Filmakademie was ranked as the best film school in Germany. Evaluation criteria were the reputation of the university, the support for the students, the technical equipment and the number of awards won. The animation institute at the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg was listed as second in the 3D World ranking in 2007, a global \"Ivy League\" table of the world\'s top animation schools. In 2010 the prestigious magazine The Hollywood Reporter listed the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg as the only German institution on its ranking of the world\'s best film schools. In 2015, 2016 and 2017 the Filmakademie was again listed as one of the \"15 best film schools in the world\". In 2017, the international awards and mentoring platform The Rookies named the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg and its Animationsinstitut the world\'s Best Visual Effects School and ranked it as No. 2 in the categorie Best Animation School. ## Awards Five times, films made at the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg won a Student Academy Award (Oscar): Rochade (1998, directed by Thorsten M. Schmidt), NimmerMeer (Nevermore, 2007, directed by Toke C. Hebbeln), Von Hunden und Pferden (Of Dogs and Horses, 2012, directed by Thomas Stuber), Erledigung einer Sache (The Last Will, 2015, directed by Dustin Loose), and Galamsey (2017, directed by Johannes Preuss). Other international awards include a Golden Leopard awarded to Das Verlangen (The Longing, directed by Iain Dilthey) at the Locarno International Film Festival 2002, and an Oscar nomination for Das Rad (Rocks, directed by Chris Stenner, Heidi Wittlinger and Arvid Uibel) in the category \"Best Animated Short Film\" (2003)	620	Film Academy Baden-Württemberg	0
11,105,487	# Blotted Science Blotted Science is an instrumental progressive metal supergroup headed by Ron Jarzombek (Watchtower, Spastic Ink), bassist Alex Webster (Cannibal Corpse) and drummer Hannes Grossmann (ex-Obscura, ex-Necrophagist). They formed under the name Machinations of Dementia, but later changed their name to Blotted Science (Machinations of Dementia would be the title of their first publicly purchasable album). ## History In 2005 Ron Jarzombek contacted drummer Chris Adler (ex-Lamb of God) and bassist Alex Webster (Cannibal Corpse) about a possible collaboration, with the goal of taking Jarzombek\'s signature left-of-center progressive metal approach into a much heavier, more extreme realm. Although the addition of a vocalist was briefly considered, the trio ultimately decided to remain an all-instrumental band. However, Adler had to bow out due to his demanding schedule with Lamb of God but would collaborate with Jarzombek on the song \'The Near Dominance of 4 Against 5\' which appeared on Magna Carta Records\'s \'Drum Nation Vol. 3\' compilation in 2006. Adler\'s replacement was Derek Roddy (Hate Eternal, Nile) and, at the suggestion of Webster, the band took on the name Machinations of Dementia. Roddy left the group in August 2006. Shortly thereafter, Jarzombek was introduced to Charlie Zeleny, who would provide the missing drum tracks in a matter of weeks. The band, now known as Blotted Science, released their debut album, The Machinations of Dementia, in the fall of 2007 on Jarzombek\'s EclecticElectric label. The album was also licensed to Marquee/Avalon for the territory of Japan where it was released on June 22, 2011. In September 2010, Ron Jarzombek announced plans for a new Blotted Science EP consisting of seven songs totaling 24 minutes of music, with a tentative release date of early 2011. He also confirmed that the band would be utilizing the services of German drummer Hannes Grossmann in place of Charlie Zeleny on the recording. Grossmann and Jarzombek also collaborated in the one-off project Terrestrial Exiled whose digital only single \'Duodecimal Levorotation\' was released in May 2011. In late July 2011, a two-minute video teaser was posted on the band\'s YouTube channel and an October 4, 2011 release date announced for the EP, titled The Animation of Entomology. The band signed a license deal with UK-based Basick Records for the territory of Europe where the EP was released on November 28, 2011. In late April 2013, it was announced that both Blotted Science titles were scheduled for limited edition release on vinyl via Florida-based Antithetic Records with a street date of May 21, 2013. ## Members ### Current members {#current_members} - Ron Jarzombek - guitars (2005--present) - Alex Webster - bass (2005--present) - Hannes Grossmann - drums (2011--present) ### Former members {#former_members} - Chris Adler - drums (2005-2006) - Derek Roddy - drums (2006) - Charlie Zeleny - drums (2006-2011) Timeline {{#tag:timeline\\| ImageSize = width:1000 height:auto barincrement:20 PlotArea = left:85 bottom:60 top:5 right:10 DateFormat = mm/dd/yyyy Alignbars = justify Period = from:02/01/2005 till:{{#time:m/d/Y}} ScaleMajor = increment:2 start:2006 ScaleMinor = increment:1 start:2006 TimeAxis = orientation:horizontal format:yyyy Legend = orientation:horizontal position:bottom Colors = `id:Guitar value:green legend:Guitar`\ `id:Bass value:blue legend:Bass`\ `id:Drums value:orange legend:Drums`\ `id:album value:black legend:Studio_album`\ `id:other value:gray(0.6) legend:EP`\ LineData= `layer:back`\ `at:09/18/2007 color:album`\ `at:11/28/2011 color:other` BarData = `bar:RJ text:Ron Jarzombek`\ `bar:AW text:Alex Webster`\ `bar:CA text:Chris Adler`\ `bar:DR text:Derek Roddy`\ `bar:CZ text:Charlie Zeleny`\ `bar:HG text:Hannes Grossmann` PlotData= `width:11 textcolor:black align:left anchor:from shift:(10	551	Blotted Science	0
11,105,521	# Teymuraz Bagration Prince Teymuraz Bagration of Mukhrani (21 August 1912 -- 10 April 1992) was a Georgian-Russian nobleman and an émigré in the United States where he served as President of the Tolstoy Foundation, a New York-based charitable organization. ## Life He was born at Pavlovsk, Imperial Russia, into a formerly sovereign family. His father, Prince Konstantin Bagration-Mukhransky (1889--1915), a member of the Mukhrani branch of the Bagration family, formerly a royal dynasty of Georgia, was an Imperial Russian Army officer and was killed in World War I. Teymuraz\'s mother, Princess Tatiana Constantinovna of Russia (1890--1979) was a member of the imperial Romanov dynasty of Russia. Through her, he was second cousin of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent. Teymuraz Bagration left Russia after the 1917 Revolution, first living in Switzerland and then settling in Yugoslavia. Prince Bagration graduated in 1932 from the Krymskiy Cadet School and then studied at the Yugoslav Military Academy. He served for ten years in the Guards Mounted Artillery Regiment of the Royal Yugoslav Army. During World War II, he served in the Royal Yugoslav Army. After the war, he emigrated to the U.S. and was invited to join the Tolstoy Foundation in 1949. He became Executive Director of the Foundation in 1979 and led the organization from 1986 until his death in New York in 1992. On 5 July 2007, Bagration\'s unique archive was presented by his second wife, Princess Irina, to the National Parliamentary Library of Georgia. ## Personal life {#personal_life} Bagration was married twice. The first time he was married in Belgrade to Katarina Račić (4 Jul 1919, London - 20 December 1946), grand-daughter of Serbian Prime minister Nikola Pašić on 27 October 1940. At the time of the wedding he was 28 and she was 21, but the marriage ended with Katarina\'s death at the age of 27. The second marriage was with Countess Irina Czernysheva-Besobrasova (born 26 September 1926, Neuilly-sur-Seine - 9 July 2015, New York City), the daughter of Count Sergei Aleksandrovich Czernyshev-Besobrasov and Countess Elizaveta Sheremeteva. Irina was an older sister of Countess Xenia Czernyshev-Besobrasov, who married 1953 Archduke Rudolf Syringus, youngest son of Karl I of Austria, the last Austrian Emperor. This marriage was celebrated on 27 November 1949 and took place in New York City. He was 37 and she was 23. There was no issue of either marriage	399	Teymuraz Bagration	0

(John Wishon) \| website = {{URL\|http://www.12403wc.com}} }}`{=mediawiki} WWWC (1240 AM), also known as 3WC, is a 24-hour Southern gospel radio station located in Wilkesboro, North Carolina, United States, serving Wilkes County. The station which is owned by Foothills Media, Inc., broadcasts with a power of 1 kilowatt at 1240 kHz on the AM band, as well as over the internet. ## History On November 20, 1968, Paul Cashion and J.B. Wilson, doing business as Wilkes County Radio, obtained a construction permit for a new 100-watt radio station in Wilkesboro. WWWC signed on January 26, 1970, with a country music format. `{{r\|bcyb71}}`{=mediawiki} Later that year, the station increased its power to 500 watts during the day and 250 watts at night. Shortly after, the station shifted towards a Top 40 format, which remained for most of the next 30 years. In 1983, Tomlinson Broadcasting acquired WWWC for \$410,000. However, the company filed for bankruptcy reorganization in 1991, owing most of its debt to the original owners, Cashion and Wilson. The station went off the air on November 12, 1992, and returned on December 4 with Cashion and Wilson once again at the helm. This revival was short-lived, as Cashion suffered a stroke and decided to withdraw, leading to the station\'s closure again on January 7, 1993. WWWC remained off the air until the station was purchased by Ken Byrd, Alan Combs, and John Wishon and adopted its Southern gospel format on July 11, 1994. 3WC is currently owned by John Wishon, who bought out the station from co-owner Alan Combs in 2006 for \$200,000. ## Translators In addition to the main station, WWWC is relayed by translators to widen its broadcast area. Cumberland Communities Communications Corporation, owner of WDVX, sold the Wilkesboro frequency to Foothills Media Inc. for \$20,000. In July 2019, a second transmitter was put in place near Elkin, adding an FM signal to the northeast of Wilkesboro	434	WWWC (AM)	0
11,105,541	# Neurosonic Neurosonic was founded in Vancouver, British Columbia in February, 2006 by vocalist/guitarist Jason Darr, who was the former lead singer of Calgary\'s Out of Your Mouth. In addition to Jason, Neurosonic also consists of guitarist Troy Healy, accompanying vocalist and bassist Jacen Ekstrom and Tama endorsed drummer Shane Smith from former bands SNFU, The Real Mckenzies and David Ogilvy\'s (Mixer/Producer of Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, and Mötley Crüe), Jakalope. Neurosonic released its first album, Drama Queen on January 30, 2007 on the Bodog Music label, although the album was released in September, 2006 in Canada. The Multi-Platform game, Scarface: The World Is Yours also features their song, \'So Many People\'. On April 28, 2007, Jason posted on Neurosonic\'s MySpace that they would be playing on the main stage at the 2007 Family Values Tour. According to the Neurosonic biography on Bodog Music\'s site, Neurosonic is as \"driven and unapologetic as its creator (Darr).\" Neurosonic\'s musical style crosses many boundaries and while it is generally classified as alternative rock, it is also classified as hard rock, also containing elements of traditional rock and pop. ## Terrorist incident {#terrorist_incident} In September, 2006, Neurosonic was suspected by the United States\' FBI as being terrorists when Jason\'s pedal board, which consisted of the board and wires in a hard case, was examined and subsequently seized by the TSA. Jason had taped Neurosonic\'s set list to the board, which consisted of most of the songs on Drama Queen. Some of the song names (i.e. So Many People, Until I Die, Crazy Sheila, etc.) were mistaken by the FBI as being terrorist code, although Jason was able to explain the situation and the board was eventually returned. ## Major tours {#major_tours} In the late summer of 2007, Neurosonic guested at Korn\'s Family Values Tour along with Flyleaf, Trivium, Hellyeah, Atreyu, Evanescence, Droid, The Changing, and many more bands on the second stage such as Twin Method, Five Finger Death Punch, and Bloodsimple. Neurosonic also toured with Puddle Of Mudd in 2008. ## Feuds Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy was rumored to have been in a feud with Neurosonic over the song \"So Many People\", which publicly bashes Wentz\'s ex-wife Ashlee Simpson. Reporting of the matter stemmed from Jason Darr jokingly saying that Fall Out Boy\'s bass player had filed a cease & desist order. Wentz responded with: \"If your songs are good then sleep easy and have fun playing them - just don\'t attach me to them.\" while lead singer Jason Darr has spoken out, saying \"Anyone silly enough to believe I was serious about the comment has no sense of humour. The song is tongue in cheek\... meant to blow off steam about a subject that is laughable at best.\" ## Disbandment On April 1, 2009 lead vocalist Jason Darr announced via the band\'s Myspace page that Neurosonic was officially over. Jason went on to say the band had been coming to that conclusion for a bit as several of the members married, one is soon expecting his first child, and all of them had been focused on other projects. ## New beginning {#new_beginning} The band, minus Jason Darr, has reformed into the new band Crashscene.

11,105,586	# Colorado Catholic Academy Colorado Catholic Academy was a private Catholic grammar school and high school in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. It was independently owned and operated with the approval of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Denver. Unlike most Catholic schools in the area, it was not formed by the Archdiocese of Denver and was not under the supervision of the Archdiocese\'s Office of Catholic Schools. ## Background CCA was established in 1974 and was accredited by the National Association of Private Catholic and Independent Schools (NAPCIS). The school\'s founder, Mary Ann Cristofano, was its first principal. In 1976, three of its 11 teachers were unpaid volunteers, and the school did not provide organized sports until 1977.

11,105,606	# John James Davis John James Davis (May 5, 1835 -- March 19, 1916) was an American attorney and politician who helped found West Virginia and later served as a United States representative in Congress from that state. ## Early and family life {#early_and_family_life} John James Davis was born in Clarksburg, Virginia (now West Virginia) in 1835 to master saddler John Davis and his New York-born wife Eliza Arnold Steen Davis. He had a younger brother, Rezin Caleb Davis (who initially apprenticed with their father, but was a Confederate soldier and later became a lawyer in Kentucky). The family included at least two sisters. Their grandfather Caleb Davis had been born across the Potomac River at Oldtown, Allegheny County, Maryland but had moved to Woodstock, Shenandoah County, Virginia where J.J. Davis\'s father John Davis had been born. After learning his trade, John Davis moved to Clarksburg shortly before Virginia authorized construction of the Northwestern Turnpike. John Davis served as the Harrison County sheriff, ruling elder in his Presbyterian church and (unlike his son John James Davis) sympathized with the Confederacy and died in 1863. His wife Eliza (J.J. Davis\'s mother) was a pioneer school teacher in Harrison County, who taught Stonewall Jackson as well as her sons and many other local children. Either the father John Davis or J.J. Davis owned six slaves in Harrison County in 1860, and his brother Rezin Davis owned two slaves---a 17-year-old girl and a one-year-old boy. Young J.J. Davis attended Northwestern Virginia Academy at Clarksburg (the Harrison County seat). When he was 17, he moved to Lexington, Virginia to attend the Lexington Law School (now the law department of Washington and Lee University). Graduating in 1856, J.J. Davis was admitted to the Virginia bar that same year and began what would become his lifelong legal practice in Clarksburg. On August 21, 1862, John J. Davis married Anna Kennedy in Baltimore, Maryland, her home city. She was the daughter of a lumber merchant and college-educated. They later had a son, John William Davis (1873--1955), who followed his father\'s career and became a lawyer and congressman, although he eventually left West Virginia and was the unsuccessful Democratic presidential nominee in 1924. They also had four daughters: Lillie Davis Preston (1863--1939) of Lewisburg, West Virginia; Emma Kennedy Davis (1865--1943) who never married and was secretary of the local Red Cross in World War I as well as assistant chair of the Harrison County Democratic Committee; Anna Holmes Davis Richardson (1869-1945, whose first husband was a Unitarian minister in New York), and Catherine Estelle Davis (1874--1881). ## American Civil War {#american_civil_war} Davis became politically active after the Virginia Secession Convention on April 17, 1861 voted to approve an ordinance of secession over the opposition of many delegates from the northwestern counties, including fellow lawyer John S. Carlile from Harrison County. Carlile called a mass meeting in Clarksburg on April 22 to call Virginia\'s secession treasonous and consider responses. Davis attended that \"Clarksburg Convention.\" On May 13--15, J.J. Davis was among seven Harrison County men attending the Wheeling Convention, which established the Restored Government of Virginia. In June 1861, Harrison County voters elected Davis and John C. Vance to represent them in the Virginia House of Delegates, which met in Wheeling from July 1--26; Davis never served in Richmond, Virginia (the normal meeting place of the Virginia General Assembly, including during the American Civil War). In October, Harrison County voters again elected Vance and Davis as their two delegates to the General Assembly, which met at Wheeling from December 2, 1861 -- February 13, 1862, May 6--15, 1862, and December 4, 1862-February 5, 1863 (although Vance resigned on January 2, 1862). Despite Davis\'s Unionist advocacy, his father remained a Confederate sympathizer and his brother Rezin enlisted in the Confederate army. ## Postwar career {#postwar_career} As the war ended, Davis continued his legal practice in Clarksburg, and voters elected him to the West Virginia House of Delegates in 1869. He served one term, in 1870, in that part-time position. Active in his local Democratic Party, Davis was a delegate to the Democratic National Conventions in 1868, 1876 and 1892. He also was a Mason, a regent of the University of West Virginia, a member of the Board of Visitors of the United States Military Academy at West Point, director of the State Insane Hospital, and a ruling elder in the Southern Presbyterian Church.	733	John James Davis	0
11,105,606	# John James Davis ## National politics {#national_politics} When Republican Isaac H. Duval announced that he would not seek re-election from West Virginia\'s 1st congressional district in 1870, Davis was the Democratic nominee and won. He served in the 42nd Congress, and was re-elected as an Independent Democrat to the 43rd Congress. He decided against running for re-nomination in 1874, and fellow Democrat Benjamin Wilson won the seat. His elective political years over, except for stints at the Democratic National Conventions and as a presidential elector for Grover Cleveland, Davis resumed his legal practice in Clarksburg, which came in second in the 1877 contest to become West Virginia\'s state capital. However, the Republican Party grew stronger in the area, led by Nathan Goff, Jr., who replaced Wilson after the 1882 election. Eventually, Davis practiced with his son, John W. Davis, who began his personal political career by winning election to the West Virginia House of Delegates in 1899. Although the U.S. congressional seat was generally held by Republicans (other than twice briefly held by Democrat John O. Pendleton), Davis lived to see his son win it in 1910, then resign to become U.S. Solicitor General under Democratic President Woodrow Wilson. ## Death and legacy {#death_and_legacy} John J. Davis died in Clarksburg on March 19, 1916, and was interred in the Odd Fellows Cemetery, where his wife of nearly 55 years joined him less than a year later. Their daughter Emma, who never married, remained active in Democratic politics in Clarksburg. After serving as Solicitor General, his son John W. Davis would become U.S. Ambassador to Britain, then move to New York	271	John James Davis	1
11,105,613	# George Fowler Jones George Fowler Jones (25 January 1818 -- 1 March 1905) was an architect and early amateur photographer who was born in Scotland but based for most of his working life in York. ## Biography and work {#biography_and_work} Jones was born in Inverness in 1818. He studied under architect William Wilkins, the designer of Yorkshire Museum and the National Gallery, assisting him with the plates for his work on Vitruvius; then in around 1839 in London under Sir Sydney Smirke. When Smirke undertook repairs to the fire-damaged York Minster in the early 1840s, including revolutionary iron roof trusses, he sent Jones to take measurements. Jones liked York enough to move there shortly after. A few years later Jones designed similar iron roof trusses for one of his early commissions, Castle Oliver in Ireland. Jones was elected Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects (FRIBA) on 17 February 1868, proposed by Decimus Burton, Sydney Smirke and Ewan Christian. He married firstly Anne, in 1848, the 3rd daughter of Dr William Matterson of Minster Yard, York, (Lord Mayor). She died \'of congestion of the lungs\' on 29 January 1855 aged 35 at home, Bootham. Then Catherine, in 1857, 4th daughter of Henry Pigeon Esq. of Clapham Common and Southwark. Jones fathered 11 children who survived into their majority. With his 1st wife: Gascoigne Hastings 1850--1911; Fowler Lloyd 1851--1929, settled in Hastings, UK; Augusta 1853--1935; Annie Eliza Elena 1855--1925. With his 2nd wife: Fanny Katherine 1858--1936; Constance 1860--1930; Harry Mckenzie 1861--1948 (moved to Valparaiso, Chile, descendants now in Santiago; Montague 1864--1935; Robert Colquhoun 1865--1952; Edith 1867--1946; Lucy 1870--1914. Further information welcome, follow Castle Oliver link (see below) and use the Contact form. His earliest known commission, in 1843 at the age of 25, was the Gascoigne Almshouses, in Aberford, near Leeds, Yorkshire for the sisters Elizabeth & Mary Isabella Oliver Gascoigne. The building stood near the Gascoignes\' family seat, Parlington Hall. Jones was also responsible for projects at Parlington Hall, including a conservatory and a boat house. He undertook commissions for the sisters throughout his life. In 1843 when he began the Aberford Almshouses, Jones lived at 80 Baker Street, London. In 1844 while designing Castle Oliver he lived at 51 or 52 Monkgate, near Monk Bridge, York. In 1846 he started a practice at 8 Lendal, York. Plans and elevations of 3 Counties Asylum, dated 15 September 1856 give Jones\' address as 4 New Street, York. The Yorkshire Gazette of 15 February 1862 records that Jones moved from New Sreet to 84 Bootham. Pevsner records that in 1862, Jones designed and built 78 Bootham, York, as his own residence and Jones\' RIBA incorporation certificate of 1868 gives this as his address. Presumably therefore 78 Bootham became Jones\' offices; Works at 3 Counties Asylum dated 8 July and September 1870 also give 84 Bootham. Plans for 3 Counties Asylum dated 3 May 1877 and 9 March 1878 give his address as 3 Stonegate, York. Further works at 3 Counties dated February 1880 give his address as 100 Micklegate, next to \'The Pack Horse\' and he still held the property in 1886. However, since by this time Jones had in all probability retired to Malton, the address is probably that of his practice, then run by his son. In addition to his architectural activities, Jones was a photographer in the very earliest days of the medium. He became a pupil to William Fox Talbot, inventor of the negative/positive process. Some of Jones\' photographs of his own buildings and of York city, the earliest dating back to 1851, are to be found in the City of York Libraries and Archives; others at the City Reference Library, Leeds. A vast body of his photographic work, dating from the very earliest days of photography, now resides at the National Media Museum, Bradford. 2,100 negatives, along with some prints, have been catalogued in a 340-page index. Scenes include some of his earliest commissions, at Castle Oliver, Parlington Hall, Garforth Church and Aberford Almshouses. The collection spans Jones\' entire career and includes images shot in Scotland, Ireland, Corsica, Belgium, Norway, Sweden and New Zealand. Within the collection are several large negatives which Jones\' records as being Fox Talbot\'s work, although this has been disputed by Larry Schaaf, author and expert on Fox Talbot. Jones was also a proficient watercolorist, exhibiting at the Fine Art Exhibitions of 1880 (St Mary\'s Abbey) and 1885 (two views of Norway & the Church of St John, Exmouth), probably other years also. An auction in 1923 at Castle Oliver, in Ireland included 2 Views of Corsica by G.Fowler Jones and his son bequeathed another, Ajaccio Bay, Corsica. Jones contributed to Productions of the Leeds Photographic Society (1852), a book of photography by York residents. He died at home, Quarry Bank, Malton, North Yorkshire. Obituaries in The Builder Journal and \'RIBA\' Journal, are both dated 11 March 1905. An obituary appeared in the Yorkshire Herald on 3 March 1905 and in The Yorkshire Gazette of 4 March 1905.

Designed York Art Gallery [1](https://web.archive.org/web/20070629010659/http://www.loop.ph/bin/view/Openloop/YorkArtGalleryHistoricalResearch) - Mr Tomlinson - John Ward Knowles (about 1845) \'As a youth worked 3--4 months for Jones at Monkgate, but disliked the work and returned to painting and glass staining\'. - Peter Kerr, Assistant (1843--1845), who later worked on additions to Dunrobin Castle, Sutherland and was in the office of Sir Charles Barry before emigrating to Australia in 1852 - James Rawson Carroll, Apprentice then Assistant (before 1845--1855). His brother Thomas built the stonework of Castle Oliver, Fowler Jones\'s largest private residential commission. - John Russell Mackenzie, Assistant (before 1850). - Horatio Kelson Bromhead, Assistant (c.1858--1859). - William Bellerby of Clifton, near York. On leaving school was articled as a pupil to Jones, dates unknown but presumably commencing around1868. Completed training, but never practised, choosing to return to the family building co. In 1870 and 1877 Bellerby\'s family firm carried out work to Jones\' designs: (see below, Fairfield Hospital). - William Gilmour Wilson, Assistant (after 1877) - Gascoigne Hastings Fowler Jones, Jones\' eldest child, born 1850, named in honour of his father\'s early patrons, also became an architect. Gascoigne was apprenticed to his father\'s practice between 1867 and 1872, becoming Assistant Architect to his father from 1872 to 1876. In 1892--4 he repaired and restored St Mary\'s Church, Kippax, a Grade I Listed Building. [2](http://www.stmarykippax.org.uk/history.htm) `{{Webarchive\|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080828052534/http://www.stmarykippax.org.uk/history.htm \|date=28 August 2008 }}`{=mediawiki} During and after work at Kippax he arbitrated in a dispute between the contractor, Mr Keswick of Micklegate, York and the Rev\'d. Hoste. Mr Keswick had submitted a very low tender, failing to foresee essential works. Gascoigne was sympathetic to the builder, who was elderly and in very poor health, drawing up a Statement of Cost to convince Hoste of Keswick\'s argument. This statement survives among the Parish Papers, West Yorkshire Archive Service. He is known to have designed Chestnut House, The Mount. Gascoigne took over almost all Jones\' practice\'s works at Clifton Hospital in about 1889 (see below). The Dictionary of Scottish Architects suggests that he eventually operated his own practice, from 8 Lendal, York, the property where his father first practised. Gascoigne also had political aspirations: in 1901 he was \'Re-elected unopposed Conservative Councillor to Micklegate Ward\' (Yorks Gazette 26 October 1901); again \'Re-elected unopposed\' (Yorks Gazette 30 January 1904 and at least a 3rd time (Yorks Gazette 5/11/1910). He died aged 61 on 16 April 1911, (obituary Yorks Gazette 22 April 1911). He \'bequeathed pictures\', including works by himself and his father, as well as a watercolour of Jones\' first father-in-law, Lord Mayor Dr Matterson, to York Corporation (Yorks Gazette 29 July 1911). In 1878 he published 50 lithographs Sketches in York, at a cost of 3 sh/6d (York Central Library ref 942.843). The book\'s cover gives his address as 3 Stonegate, York. One account in The Yorks Gazette mentions that Jones was assisted in his practice \'by both sons\' and that following Gascoigne Jones\' death \'his younger brother carried on the practice, taking on as partner a Mr Munby, but the firm ceased after probably a year or two\'. It is not known which son this refers to.	547	George Fowler Jones	1

Extensive use of Minton tiles hand-designed by the sisters. ```{=html} <!-- --> ``` - Garforth, Leeds, Yorkshire (West Riding): Church of St Mary (1844--45) Early Gothic; also commissioned by the Oliver Gascoigne sisters, who made the spectacular stained glass East Window [3](http://www.st-marys-garforth.co.uk/media/photos/pic2.jpg). The foundation stone was laid on 22 July 1844; Consecrated 14 November 1845. - Nairn, Nairnshire, Scotland: St Ninian\'s Church (1844). In 1901--3, the church was demolished and re-erected in Lochinver, Sutherland; it is now known as Lochinver Parish Church. - Kilravock Castle, near Nairn, Morayshire, Scotland: east lodge (1844--45) - Castle Grant, near Grantown-on-Spey, Morayshire, Scotland: west lodge (1845) - Sherburn-in-Elmet, now South Milford: Church of St Mary [4](http://www.southmilford.co.uk/St_Marys_Church.htm) (1845-Consecrated 26 November 1846) also commissioned by the Oliver Gascoigne sisters at a cost of £1,500. It was built of Huddleston limestone by Benjamin Bulmer of Thorpe Arch. The Gascoigne sisters also made stained glass windows for this church. Jones\' designs for St Mary\'s were exhibited at the Royal Academy, London. ```{=html} <!-- --> ``` - Castle Oliver aka Clonodfoy/Clonghanodfoy Castle, Co.Limerick, Ireland (1845--52) Scottish Baronial; also commissioned by the Oliver Gascoigne sisters, it is a 110-room private residence with two matching gate lodges built of pink sandstone quarried locally. It featured Minton encaustic tiles and stained glass, as well as decorative ceilings, all designed by the sisters. The stonework was built by Thos. H Carroll of Dublin; Messrs. Henry & Thos. Creaser, of York, were the contractors for the interior finishings; Johnston Silley & Co, Decorator, Dublin, executed the decorative paintwork (still being completed in 1857) and Mr John Walker, of Walker Iron Foundry, York, supplied all the ironwork of the roof, etc. Monograms of Carroll and Creaser, the two main contractors, feature in a decorative terracotta panel set high in the gable overlooking the courtyard. See examples of this and other features: [5](http://www.castle-oliver.com/Pages/Pics/Original-features.html) Jones designed large stone gryphons, eleven of which sat on the balustrade surrounding the castle. These were probably carved from Portland Stone and disintegrated in the wet Irish climate in the early 20th century. Facsimiles have been created from photographic evidence and a limited edition made available [6](http://www.triton.uk.com/index.php/showcase/commission-for-castle-oliver-in-ireland/). Small scale plans signed by Jones and dated 24 June 1845 are in the Manuscripts Room at Dublin Library. The castle is remarkable for its simple, but immensely effective and durable cast & wrought iron roof trusses, which were made in numbered component form in York and assembled on site. These trusses are believed to have been relatively \'cutting edge\' at the time, although it appears that Walker Iron Foundry made similar ones in 1843 to restore the nave roof of York Minster.

11,105,645	# Condosity Condosity is a comparative measurement of electrical conductivity of a solution. The condosity of any given solution is defined as the molar concentration of a sodium chloride (NaCl) solution that has the same specific electrical conductance as the solution under test. By way of example, for a 2 Molar potassium chloride (KCl) solution, the condosity would be expected to be somewhat greater than 2.0. This is because potassium is a better conductor than sodium. ## Applications The measurement is sometimes used in biological systems to provide an assessment of the properties of bodily or cellular liquids, or the properties of solutes in the physical environment. When measuring the properties of bodily fluids such as urine, condosity is expressed in units of millimoles per litre (mM/L)	127	Condosity	0
11,105,650	# Tetrad of media effects Marshall McLuhan\'s tetrad of media effects uses a tetrad - a four-part construct - to examine the effects on society of any technology/medium (that is, a means of explaining the social processes underlying the adoption of a technology/medium) by dividing its effects into four categories and displaying them simultaneously. The tetrad first appeared in print in articles by McLuhan in the journals Technology and Culture (1975) and et cetera (1977). It first appeared in book form in his posthumously-published works Laws of Media (1988) and The Global Village (1989). ## The tetrad {#the_tetrad} The tetrad consists of four questions. 1. What does the medium enhance? 2. What does the medium make obsolete? 3. What does the medium retrieve that had been obsolesced earlier? 4. What does the medium reverse or flip into when pushed to extremes? The laws of the tetrad exist simultaneously, not successively or chronologically, and allow the questioner to explore the \"grammar and syntax\" of the \"language\" of media. McLuhan departs from the media theory of Harold Innis in suggesting that a medium \"overheats\", or reverses into an opposing form, when taken to its extreme. Visually, a tetrad can be depicted as four diamonds forming an X, with the name of a medium in the center, where the left/right direction reflects the figure/ground association. The two diamonds on the left of a tetrad are the Enhancement and Retrieval qualities of the medium, both Figure qualities. The two diamonds on the right of a tetrad are the Obsolescence and Reversal qualities, both Ground qualities. - Enhancement (figure): What the medium amplifies or intensifies. For example, radio amplifies news and music via sound. - Obsolescence (ground): What the medium drives out of prominence. Radio reduces the prominence of print and the visual. - Retrieval (figure): What the medium recovers which was previously lost. Radio returns the spoken word to the forefront. - Reversal (ground): What the medium does when pushed to its limits. *Acoustic radio flips into audio-visual TV	335	Tetrad of media effects	0

11,105,716	# Faubourg Brewing Company Faubourg Brewing Company was a brewery founded in New Orleans, Louisiana, on October 31, 1907, and originally named Dixie Brewing Company. The brewing operation was located on Tulane Avenue until 2005 when it closed due to damage from Hurricane Katrina. After that the beer was contract brewed out of state until November 2019 when a new brewery opened in New Orleans. In 2021 the brewery was renamed the Faubourg Brewing Company. Following the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival in May 2024, the company announced its closure and that all equipment from their New Orleans plant would be auctioned off. ## History Faubourg Brewing Company was founded as Dixie Brewing by Valentine Merz, and began production in 1907. The original brick Dixie Brewery building at 2401 Tulane Avenue at the corner of Tulane Avenue and Tonti Street was designed by the German architect Louis Lehle and completed in 1907 with a wooden extension added in 1919. During Prohibition, the company became the \"Dixie Beverage Company.\" In 1983, Dixie was sold to a New Orleans--based corporation, Coy International. In November 1985, it was purchased by Joseph and Kendra Elliott Bruno and in 1989 its owners filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. After emerging reorganized in 1992, the brewery produced a new line of speciality beers, Blackened Voodoo (a dark lager), Crimson Voodoo (a red ale) and in 1993 introduced Jazz Amber Light. thumb \\|upright \\|Dixie beer In 2005, the Dixie Brewery was severely damaged when Mid-City New Orleans flooded from the levee failure disaster during Hurricane Katrina. After the area was drained the brewery complex was looted with much of the equipment stolen. Despite early post-Katrina claims that the brewery would be restored and efforts being made to encourage local government to support the return of the brewery, it was never able to reopen. With the closing of the original brewery, Dixie Beer's production was contract brewed at Joseph Huber Brewing Company in Monroe, Wisconsin. When the brewery didn\'t reopen on Tulane Avenue, the closed brewery building was incorporated into the footprint of the new Department of Veterans Affairs hospital built in New Orleans\' Mid-City neighborhood. During restoration, the focus was on stabilizing the structure. Liz Failla, project coordinator for the VA said, \"Right now, what we\'re doing is stabilizing the structure that we\'re going to maintain, which is that iconic tower with the Dixie Brewery on there.\" The design preserves and repairs the six- and four-story sections of the old brewery. Failla also said a modern brick and glass structure will rise from behind the historic facade. Tom Benson, owner of the New Orleans Saints and the New Orleans Pelicans, bought a majority stake in the Dixie brand in 2017 from Joe and Kendra Bruno, with plans of returning the brewing operation to New Orleans within two years. After Tom Benson\'s death on March 15, 2018, his wife Gayle Benson took control of the majority stake in the brewery. On August 7, 2018, it was announced a new Dixie Brewery would be built in Eastern New Orleans featuring a replica of the brick tower at Dixie\'s original brewery and metal letters that were removed from the exterior of the original brewery. The brewery and taproom were built in an 80,000-square-foot portion of an existing warehouse located on a 14-acre property. A private event space above the taproom has a bar made from a vintage fermenting tank also removed from the original brewery. A kitchen off the taproom offers bar snacks and food, while the area just past the on-site beer garden hosts food trucks. The property also includes a beer museum, a grassy meadow with a pond, walking paths, bocce ball courts, fire pits and an area for yard games. In June 2019, Dixie Beer\'s production was moved from Monroe, Wisconsin to the Blues City Brewery in Memphis, Tennessee before its return to New Orleans. On November 25, 2019, the Dixie Brewing Company began brewing at their new brewery in New Orleans, marking the first time Dixie was brewed in New Orleans since 2005. On January 25, 2020, the brewery had its official groundbreaking and the facility opened to the public. In November 2020 the company announced that it was changing its name from Dixie Brewing Company to Faubourg Brewing Company, with the beer to be branded as Faubourg beer. Faubourg -- pronounced \"FO-burg\" -- is a French word that New Orleaneans often use interchangeably with \"neighborhood\". According to The Times-Picayune, \"While the origins of the term Dixie as a nickname for the South reach far back into history, its affiliation with the Confederacy has made it divisive in modern discourse.\" In February 2021 the signage on the brewery was changed, with final preparations in place for new packaging for the beer. ## Popular culture {#popular_culture} The brewery and/or its beer have been featured notably in films including Red, Southern Comfort, The Loveless, Steel Magnolias, Stone Cold, Tigerland and Tightrope. It is briefly mentioned in the novels A Confederacy of Dunces, American Psycho, Drawing Blood and True Blood	841	Faubourg Brewing Company	0
11,105,719	# 2007 East Dunbartonshire Council election Elections to East Dunbartonshire Council were held on 3 May 2007, the same day as the other Scottish local government elections and the Scottish Parliament general election. This election was the first to use eight new multi-member wards created as a result of the Local Governance (Scotland) Act 2004. Each ward returned three councillors elected under the single transferable vote form of proportional representation, replacing the previous 24 single-member wards, which had used the plurality (first past the post) system of election. ## Election results {#election_results} ## Ward results {#ward_results} ### Milngavie {{#invoke:transcludable section\\|main\\|section=Milng\\|text=`{{STV Election

Labour councillors Rhondda Geekie and Alex Hannah became Leader and Provost respectively, with the positions of Depute Leader and Depute Provost being filled by Conservative councillors Billy Hendry and Anne Jarvis. However, following the death of Alex Hannah in April 2009, LibDem councillor Eric Gotts was appointed as Provost. In December 2009, Lib Dem representation increased briefly to 4, following Ashay Ghai\'s win in the Bearsden South by-election caused by the resignation of the Conservatives\' Simon Hutchison. However, their numbers reverted to 3 in June 2011, when Lib Dem councillor Duncan Cumming resigned from the party citing issues relating to the Liberal Democrats\' role in the UK coalition government, sitting thereafter as an Independent.	464	2007 East Dunbartonshire Council election	3

11,105,735	# Ducana Ducana is a sweet potato dumpling or pudding from Antigua, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Jamaica and many other Caribbean islands. They are made from grated sweet potatoes, grated coconut, sugar, flour, coconut milk, and/or water, raisins, ginger, grated nutmeg, salt and essence or vanilla extract. The mixture is combined in a bowl until it thickly coats the back of a spoon. The cooking method is quite simple, but what is often debated is the wrapping. The mixture can be cooked wrapped in foil where others prefer to cook it wrapped in coccoloba leaves, banana leaves, or seaside grape leaves. Either way the wrapped contents must be boiled in salted water for about 25 minutes or until the mixture in the wrapping is firm. Ducana is often served with salt cod (bacala) and what the islanders call \"chop-up\" which is a mixture of spinach, eggplant and okra. Ducana is also eaten cold, or thinly sliced and fried lightly	164	Ducana	0
11,105,740	# Somby Somby is a common Northern Sami surname. The name has most likely been made as a Norwegian language adapted variation based on the Sami town of Sombio (or Sompio) in the Kemi region of north Finland. The name has probably also risen from the personal male name like Sompia, Sompi, Sombie, Sombe, Sombby, Sombi, Sumby and Sobbe. The name has been used as a family name written as Sombio, Sompio, Sombi and Somby. Somby is the most common form today. It occurs basically in the northern Sami communities of Kautokeino Municipality and Karasjok Municipality on the Norwegian side of the border, but also in other northern-Scandinavian regions. The ancestor of the Somby family is Oloff Persson Sombio, registered in Kautokeino from 1697 to 1707. There is a concentration of Sumby in and around Sunderland in the UK, the earliest recorded Sumby being a resident of the Parish of Bishopwearmouth in the mid 19th century. Since then the name can be found scattered throughout the UK, North America and Australia	171	Somby	0

# Waris Shah: Ishq Daa Waaris ***Waris Shah: Ishq Daa Waaris*** is a 2006 Indian Punjabi language film, directed by Manoj Punj, starring Gurdas Maan, Juhi Chawla and Divya Dutta in lead roles. It is about the life of legendary Punjabi poet Waris Shah during the times when he wrote the poem *Heer*. The movie was internationally acclaimed and won four awards at the 54th National Film Awards. ## Plot Mughal Ruler Aurangzeb bans music in India, since he believes that music turns a person away from God. This ban continues for the next generations. Music lovers and singers start living in secret places away from cities. Baba Makhdum (Mukesh Rishi) is staying near Kasur with some of his followers and practices music; Waris Shah (Gurdas Maan) comes and joins him. Baba Makhdum tells Waris that he appreciates his talent, but asks Waris to feel the pain to get the best out of him. On Baba Ji\'s suggestion Waris moves to the village of Malkan Hans, where music is not banned. The Mughal Ruler finds out about Baba Makhdum and kills him. Waris Shah meets Bhaagpari (Juhi Chawla) in Malkan Hans. The two fall in love. Saabo (Divya Dutta), too, gets attracted to Waris Shah, and is willing to do anything to get Waris. Waris starts living in the masjid of the village and starts working on the poem *Heer*. Village youngsters get attracted to his work and become his fans. The Qazi (Gurkirtan) of the village becomes furious after seeing Waris\'s popularity. Waris is arrested by the area of Subedar after complaints from the Qazi. Waris convinces the Subedar that by singing he is worshiping God. Bhaagpari is forced to marry Saabo\'s brother (Sushant Singh) as they were betrothed at a young age. Waris Shah realizes that to feel pain and complete *Heer*, he must let Bhaagpari go. On the other hand, Saabo tries her best but fails to get Waris. Finally she accepts her fate and lets Waris go. Waris and Bhaagpari are accused of having a sexual relationship without marriage. They prove their innocence by walking unharmed on burning coals. In the end Waris leaves the village upon the completion of *Heer*. ## Cast Actor/Actress Role --------------- -------------------------------------------- Gurdas Maan Waris Shah Juhi Chawla Bhagpari Divya Dutta Saabo Sushant Singh Inayat (Saabo\'s brother) Satwant Kaur Saabo\'s mother Chetana Das Bhagpari\'s mother Deeba Saabo\'s mother Mukesh Rishi Muin-Ud-Din Makhdoom (Waris Shah\'s Ustad) Gurkirtan Qazi ## Awards The film won the maximum number of awards (4) at the 54th National Film Awards along with Lage Raho Munna Bhai. It won Best Feature Film in Punjabi (received by Producer: Sai Productions, Director: Manoj Punj), Best Male Playback Singer (awarded to Gurdas Maan - \"Couplets of Heer\"), Best Art Direction (presented to Rashid Rangrez) and Best Costume Design (felicitated to Manjeet Maan). ## Music Waris Shah: Ishq Daa Waaris featured 8 soundtracks that were composed by Jaidev Kumar. In the film, the characters of Waris Shah, Bhagpari, and Saabo are seen singing frequently on the screen.

# WorkKeys ACT **WorkKeys** consists of three elements: - Job skill assessments, which are designed to measure foundational and personal skills as they apply to the workplace - Job analysis, which pinpoints or estimates skill benchmarks for specific job positions that individuals must meet through testing - Skill training, which helps individuals boost their scores ## Skill assessments {#skill_assessments} **ACT WorkKeys includes eight workplace skill assessments:** *Three core assessments used to earn the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC):* - WorkKeys Applied Math (formerly Applied Mathematics) -- applying mathematical reasoning to work-related problems - WorkKeys Workplace Documents (formerly Reading for Information) -- comprehending work-related reading materials such as memos, bulletins, policy manuals, and governmental regulations - WorkKeys Graphic Literacy (formerly Locating Information) -- using information from sources such as diagrams, floor plans, tables, forms, graphs, and charts *Additional assessments available:* - Applied Technology -- understanding technical principles as they apply to the workplace - Business Writing -- composing clear, well-developed messages relating to on-the-job situations - Fit -- how interests and values correspond to a particular career - Talent -- includes dependability, assertiveness, and emotional stability - Workplace Observation -- paying attention to details in instructions and demonstrations ## Job analysis {#job_analysis} The job analysis component of ACT WorkKeys, known as Job Profiling, helps to set benchmarks that correspond with WorkKeys scores, giving the examinee a target score to hit in order to qualify for a job. Employers use job profiling to determine which skills are required for a job, and the level of each skill needed to perform the job successfully. This helps employers determine the standards for how an applicant must score in a particular WorkKeys skill assessment in order to be qualified for the job. In the job profiling process, ACT-licensed profilers visit with the client company or organization and determine background information on the job to be profiled and how specifically the job relates to the company. The profiler tours the company and collects materials -- such as training manuals, annual reports, company newsletters -- that define the company. The profiler then compiles an initial list of the tasks most relevant to the job being profiled. Subject matter experts -- those who know the job best through incumbency or supervising the job -- refine the list and rate each task based on two factors: importance of the task to the job and relative time spent on it. The subject matter experts then decide what minimum level of each skill is required to perform the job successfully. The examinee\'s score on an ACT WorkKeys test corresponds to their preparedness or the level of remedial training needed. ACT WorkKeys also offers two job analysis products that can be used without the help of a job profiler. ACT SkillMap, an online service which links job tasks to the skill levels of WorkKeys assessments, is used primarily to identify employees' training needs. WorkKeys Estimator is a paper-and-pencil system that gives quick estimates of the WorkKeys skill levels needed for a job. ## Skill training {#skill_training} The ACT WorkKeys system also includes computer-based and classroom-based training for individuals that corresponds with ACT WorkKeys exams. There are curricula available for every skill level of each ACT WorkKeys foundational skill exam. ## Alternative versions {#alternative_versions} Some ACT WorkKeys exams are available in Spanish and Braille versions in addition to the standard English.

# WorkKeys ## ACT National Career Readiness System {#act_national_career_readiness_system} ACT WorkKeys exams are the foundation of the ACT National Career Readiness System, a job skills credentialing system. People can earn an [ACT National Career Readiness Certificate](https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/workkeys-for-job-seekers/ncrc.html) by taking three ACT WorkKeys exams: [Applied Math](https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/workkeys-for-job-seekers/assessments/applied-math.html), [Graphic Literacy](https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/workkeys-for-job-seekers/assessments/graphic-literacy.html) and [Workplace Documents](https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/workkeys-for-job-seekers/assessments/workplace-documents.html). They are awarded certificates of Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze levels, depending on their test scores. ACT estimates that people scoring at the Bronze level have the foundational skills for approximately 17% of the jobs profiled by ACT using WorkKeys. A Silver score indicates skills for approximately 69% of those jobs profiled, a Gold for 93% of the jobs, and a Platinum 99% of the jobs. ## Statewide and community adoptions {#statewide_and_community_adoptions} Several states, communities, and cities have adopted ACT WorkKeys as part of their economic development or educational initiatives. Illinois and Michigan have made ACT WorkKeys exams part of their state high school graduation requirements. Starting in 2001, two ACT WorkKeys tests, Applied Mathematics and Reading for Information, became part of the Prairie State Achievement Examination for all 11th graders in Illinois, along with the ACT Test. In 2007, the Michigan Department of Education made the ACT WorkKeys Reading for Information and Applied Mathematics exams a part of its Michigan Merit Exam, a mandatory exam for 11th graders that also includes the ACT Test. As of 2006, 14 states were participating in the ACT National Career Readiness System and using ACT WorkKeys as part of that participation. Many states use ACT WorkKeys scores in their economic development initiatives, to demonstrate to business relocation prospects that their residents possess high job skills. These state initiatives include skill credentialing programs that are affiliated with the ACT National Career Readiness Certificate. According to ACT, 38 states were participating in the program as of 2011. The state of Kentucky issued a Kentucky Employability Certificate to adult education participants based on their performance on three ACT WorkKeys assessments: Reading for Information, Applied Mathematics, and Locating Information. In 2010, Kentucky switched to the National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC) as part of its statewide realignment of education, economic development and workforce development known as WorkSmart Kentucky North Carolina issues a North Carolina Career Readiness Certificate on the basis of scores on the same three ACT WorkKeys components. The South Carolina Department of Education requires some career education teachers to validate their competency in basic skills by obtaining specified minimum scores on the ACT WorkKeys assessments of Reading for Information, Applied Mathematics, and Writing. ## Use by employers {#use_by_employers} ACT WorkKeys is used by many business organizations. Companies that have required some or all job applicants to submit WorkKeys scores include: - CME Automotive - Dow Corning - Eastman Chemical - Hemlock Semiconductor - Northrop Grumman Ship Systems - WestRock Company Paper and Packaging Solutions

# Figure and ground (media) **Figure and ground** is a concept drawn from Gestalt psychology by media theorist Marshall McLuhan in the early 1970s. This concept underpins the meaning of his famous phrase, \"The medium is the message\". The concept was an approach to what was called \"perceptual organization.\" He began to use the terms figure and ground as a way \"to describe the parts of a situation\" and \"to help explain his ideas about media and human communication.\" The concept was later employed to explain how a communications technology, the medium or *figure*, necessarily operates through its context, or *ground*. ## Overview To McLuhan, \"\'figure\' refers to something that jumps out at us, something that grabs our attention, \[whereas\] 'ground' refers to something that supports or contextualizes a situation and is usually an area of unattention.\" When we first experience a new image or sensation, there are certain aspects of the object that grab our attention and engage us and certain aspects that we unintentionally ignore. We should not focus on just the \"figure\" or the \"ground\" though, as McLuhan believed that both were equally as important to understanding the full meaning of the situation. \"This distinction between that which is perceived and that which is blocked out in order to focus perception is central for McLuhan.\" McLuhan used different words to describe the figure/ground relationship, sometimes using content for figure and environment or, more often, medium for ground. \"McLuhan looked at media through a figure/ground relationship.\" To him, people tended to focus on only specific parts of the media, and disregard other parts. \"To examine the total effect of any medium, McLuhan pointed out that we need to look at both figure AND ground, and their relationship to one another.\" He believed that \"only focusing on the 'content' of the media was like looking at figures without examining their ground.\" \"The ground, or environment, is not a passive container, but active processes that influence the relationships between all of the elements in it\". McLuhan believed that to fully grasp the impact of a new technology in regard to figure (medium) and ground (context), one must understand that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Neither piece is definitive without the other. His *Understanding Media* explores different grounds as they are structured by different media including print, radio, and television. Al Held, a well-known artist, exemplifies this idea in one of his paintings. The work is called The Big N and it \"provides us with an introduction to the concepts of figure and ground.\" Looking at a glance, you might draw your attention to the black triangles. \"Once you were given the name of the painting, however, the frame became linked to the figures, and an \'N\' suddenly appeared.\" In understanding the work, it is important to look at the bigger picture. Al Held\'s painting is well known for its display of framing, or context, and its importance to the meaning of the overall situation. If either the frame or the painting itself were to change, the interpretation of the work might shift. Pertaining to media, we must look at both the figure and the ground to \"understand \[its\] effects.\" The ground which media creates gives a context for human communication, and thus \"directs human action in unique and important ways.\" McLuhan argued that we must study media in their historical context, particularly in relation to those technologies that preceded them. The present environment, itself made up of the effects of previous technologies, gives rise to new technologies, which, in turn, further shapes societies and individuals. Furthermore, all technologies have embedded within them their own assumptions about time and space. Again, the message conveyed by the medium can only be understood if the medium is concurrently analyzed with the environment in which it is used --- and which, simultaneously, it effectively creates. McLuhan believed that an examination of the figure-ground relationship can offer a critical commentary on culture and society. Alternately, the idea of \"figure\" can also refer to content of a particular medium, while \"ground\" refers to the medium itself. McLuhan\'s aphorism \"The medium is the message\" can thus be read as an attempt to draw attention away from a preoccupation with the figure/message to a consideration of the importance of the ground/medium

# Dave Henzerling **David Philip Henzerling** (born May 3, 1961), a.k.a. **David Michael-Philips**, is an American musician, songwriter and producer. He has been a member of numerous hard rock bands including Schoolboys, Keel, King Kobra, Lizzy Borden, Geronimo!, Liquid Black, Big Cock, Icon, Tunnel, Steelshine and Kelly Keeling & Friends. He is the older brother of Dan Henzerling, also a musician and has two sisters (both younger). David was born in Cincinnati, Ohio and moved to Phoenix, Arizona with his family in December 1969. He claims to have been blessed with the good fortune of \"\...growing up in the 60s, being a teenager in the 70s, living my 20s during the big-80s and starting a family in the 90s\...I think I benefited from the best that each decade had to offer\...\" Although his childhood obsession had always been drawing (he was an avid comic book collector and cartoon artist), music was always his primary passion. As a guitarist, he cites Ritchie Blackmore (Deep Purple), Edward Van Halen (Van Halen), and Ace Frehley (Kiss) as his major influences. At 14, his uncle took him to his first concert -- \"It was Joe Walsh and Charlie Daniels in 1975\", David says, \"From the first note played, I was hooked! After that, I saw pretty much every show that came to (Phoenix)\". ## Career ### 1979--1983: Early years {#early_years} David was a member of the Scottsdale, AZ based hard rock cover band The Schoolboys at the end of high school in 1979. In the summer of 1980, the band had decided to start writing and performing original songs, grooming themselves to be America\'s version of Def Leppard, a Sheffield, England band of similar musical genre who were just starting to gain international notoriety. They released a 12\" EP Singin\', Shoutin\' and were featured on two compilation albums by local FM radio station KDKB. That lineup was short-lived however, and both David and drummer John Covington left the band in early 1981 over creative differences in musical direction and style. The remaining members formed the band Icon which released four studio albums and one live album/DVD. ### 1984--1988: King Kobra {#king_kobra} The decision to leave The Schoolboys was an important one, because it marked the turning point that led to Henzerling\'s relocation to Los Angeles in 1984 to join the band Keel. Henzerling played only one show with Keel, the band\'s very first on April 7 1984 at Perkins Palace in Pasadena, California, where he was quickly spotted and recruited by veteran drummer Carmine Appice (Vanilla Fudge, Rod Stewart, Ozzy Osbourne) for a new band being formed called King Kobra. Shortly after joining, the band\'s manager suggested David change his last name from \"Henzerling\" to something more Hollywood-friendly, so the pseudonym \"Michael-Philips\" was adopted (the use of Philips came from David\'s middle name). King Kobra was signed by Capitol records in June 1984 and their debut LP *Ready to Strike*, produced by Spencer Proffer (Quiet Riot), was released in March 1985. The band\'s first single, \"Hunger\", was featured regularly on MTV, and they toured supporting the group Autograph. A second single, \"Tough Guys\", was remixed by Steve Thompson (Korn, Whitney Houston, Guns N\' Roses), but was never released by Capitol. King Kobra released their second album, *Thrill of a Lifetime*, in March 1986 and followed by touring with Kiss, Iron Maiden, Queensrÿche, and Ted Nugent. The song \"Never Say Die -- Iron Eagle\" was featured on the soundtrack of the number one movie *Iron Eagle* (1986), and a video was filmed with the stars Jason Gedrick and Louis Gossett Jr. at a remote airfield in Chino, California, featuring the band members playing Air Force fighter pilots. By late 1987, following their departure from Capitol Records, King Kobra had already begun to fracture and undergo numerous line-up changes so that by the time *King Kobra III* was released in 1988, there was no longer a band to support the album. ### 1989--1995: Glam metal\'s demise and exodus from Los Angeles {#glam_metals_demise_and_exodus_from_los_angeles} David performed on Lizzy Borden\'s critically acclaimed *Master of Disguise* album in 1989 (Metal Blade Records). After playing a few live shows, he opted not to officially join the band and instead formed the groups Geronimo! in 1988 and Liquid Black in 1992 after a brief stint with his old Schoolboys buddy Dan Wexler in Tomcats (1990). The Liquid Black years (1992--1995) were creative and prolific ones for David and he wrote over 70 songs with his partner and co-writer Lear Black. The band caught the eye of superstar producer Roy Thomas Baker (Queen, Journey, The Cars) and they recorded a four-song demo at Baker\'s studio in November 1994. The demo, however, did not result in a record contract and after experiencing the Northridge earthquake on 17 January 1994 along with the concurrent shift in the public\'s musical taste from glam metal to the Seattle grunge sound, David moved back to Phoenix, AZ with his new wife Kathryn and their young son. ### 1996--2004: Family years {#family_years} David and Kathryn had three more children during the years 1996--2001 (bringing the total offspring to four). David received his Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from Arizona State University in December 1999 and began working as a software engineer at Intel Corporation in January 2000.

# Dave Henzerling ## Career ### 2005--Present: Return to music {#present_return_to_music} In early 2005, David reunited with his Schoolboys band-mate John Covington to form the band Big C\*\*k with vocalist Robert Mason (Lynch Mob, Warrant). The band\'s name was meant as a satirical jab at the music business since they figured \"\...no label would sign and no radio station would play anything by a band called \'Big C\*\*k\'\...\" (note: Big C\*\*k is obfuscated to prevent being flagged by Wikipedia as obscene). The project was released independently and without fanfare solely for the purpose of \"\...creating music and having some fun\...\". Big C\*\*k released three albums *Year of the C\*\*k* (2005), *Big C\*\*k* (2006) and *Motherload* (2008) as well as a digital-only greatest hits compilation Got Big C\*\*k? (2009). The albums received positive critical acclaim for both their musicianship and unapologetic swagger. In July 2010, the song \"Real Man\" from the album *Big C\*\*k* was used by the Strongman contestant on an episode of \"America\'s Got Talent\". The band also performed at the U.S. mega-festival Rocklahoma in 2008 and 2009 along with fellow 1980s acts Warrant, Ratt and Poison. In a further ironic twist, David also played bass guitar at the 2009 Rocklahoma with his high-school and Schoolboys band-mates Icon (who had originally replaced David after his 1981 departure and changed its name from The Schoolboys to Icon). In 2010, Italian record label Frontiers Records signed the reunited King Kobra and an album of new material was released in May 2011. A follow-up album (II) was released in 2013. David continues to compose and produce original projects as well as perform locally with his Arizona-based Classic Rock cover band Trailer Park. He lives in Scottsdale, Arizona

# Kwaguʼł **Kwaguʼł** are a Kwakwakaʼwakw tribe of the Indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast from central British Columbia, on northern Vancouver Island. Their main community is called Tsax̱is or Fort Rupert. The ancestral language is Kwakʼwala, a language that is a part of the Wakashan language group. In their language, Kwaguʼł translates to *Smoke-Around-the-World* referring to the smoke that exited from the many bighouses in their villages. The band government of the Kwaguʼł is the Kwakiutl First Nation. The anglicization \"Kwakiutl\" and other forms of this group\'s name was for a long time used to describe all the Kwakwakaʼwakw peoples, but properly refers only to this group. The term \"Kwakiutl\" is also used by the Laich-kwil-tach or Lekwiltok (Euclataws or Yucultas, historically) who migrated from the vicinity of what would become Fort Rupert to what is now the City of Campbell River and adjoining islands at the start of the 19th century; they identify as the Southern Kwakiutl. ## Notable members {#notable_members} - Artist Mungo Martin and his descendants, many of whom are also prominent artists. - Tony Hunt, chief of the Kwaguʼł and a carver/sculptor - Hawinipologwa or Qualicum Annie as she is better known as, was Walas Kwagulh, and she likely carried the killer whale crest

# Settlers Landing station **Settlers Landing station** is a station on the RTA Waterfront Line in Cleveland, Ohio. The station is located just south of the intersection of West Superior Avenue and Old River Road inside Settlers Landing Park, after which the station is named. It is the first station beyond Tower City station on the Waterfront line, which extended the Green and Blue Lines into The Flats along the east bank of the Cuyahoga River and along the Lake Erie waterfront. The station is adjacent to the Settlers Landing historical site which marks the location where Moses Cleaveland and his surveying team disembarked from the Cuyahoga River to survey the city in 1796. ## History The station opened on July 10, 1996, when light rail service was extended 2.2 mi from Tower City through The Flats and along the lakefront. This extension was designated the Waterfront Line, although it is actually an extension of the Blue and Green Lines, as trains leaving this station toward Tower City continue along the Blue or Green Line routes to Shaker Heights. ## Station layout {#station_layout} The station has two side platforms located inside Settlers Landing Park. The station is located under the viaduct for the Detroit--Superior Bridge. A large glass shelter covers most of platform area and each side has a mini-high platform which allow passengers with disabilities to access trains. ## Notable places nearby {#notable_places_nearby} - The Flats - The Warehouse District - Jacobs Pavilion ## Artwork The station includes eight etched glass panels created by local artist Martin Boyle. The panels join to make up windscreens to shield waiting riders at the outdoor station. Each of the panels, which measure 63 inches by 24 or 20 inches, have fine, detailed etchings of ships, canoes, early settlers in covered wagons and local waterways illustrating different local transportation eras. Each image is hand-drawn in a classical etching style and using a crosshatch technique. One illustration is a map of Cleaveland\'s route to the Cuyahoga. ## Gallery <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 1.jpg <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 2.jpg <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 3.jpg <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 4.jpg <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 5.jpg <File:Settlers> Landing Cleveland RTA station 6

# Fresno Metropolitan Museum of Art and Science The **Fresno Metropolitan Museum** of Art and Science was a Smithsonian Institution Affiliate and American Alliance of Museums accredited museum located in downtown Fresno, California, in the San Joaquin Valley. The Museum was established in 1984 and was one of the largest museums between San Francisco and Los Angeles. \"The Met\" was housed in the historic 1922 Fresno Bee Building. In August 2005, the museum began an extensive interior renovation; the first of its kind since the Museum\'s opening. The museum reopened on November 13, 2008, and closed on January 5, 2010, after defaulting on its renovation loans. ## History In 1978, a group of Fresno civic leaders began to explore the possibility of creating a regional museum for the San Joaquin Valley. From 1981 to 1985, these members of the community raised more than \$5.5 million to open the Met in the historic downtown Fresno Bee building. The Museum opened its doors to the community on April 8, 1984. Since that time, the Museum has attracted more than two million people with its programs in art and science with diverse exhibitions including *A T. rex Named Sue, Masterworks from the Albertina, Georgia O\'Keeffe: Visions of the Sublime, Variations on a Theme: American Prints from Pop Art to Minimalism* and *Grossology: The (Impolite) Science of the Human Body.* In 1995, the Museum became the first organization outside the Bay Area to win Northern California\'s \"Award for Excellence\" in non-profit management from Chevron and The Management Center of San Francisco. In 1995, the Met received a Central California Excellence in Business Award in the non-profit category as presented by The Fresno Bee, and American Alliance of Museums accreditation status in July 2007. The Museum was named the Best Museum each year since 1999 by the readers of The Fresno Bee. On January 5, 2010, the Museum closed for good, due to the museum\'s inability to pay off the increasing deficit from the museum\'s renovation and operations. ## Renovation The museum\'s \$28 million renovation project brought the historic 1922 Fresno Bee Building into the 21st century, with more accessible gallery space, new restroom facilities and elevators, and remodeled fourth and fifth floors, which previously had not been opened as gallery space. The building underwent significant structural enhancements, specifically on the west wall from the footings below the basement up to the fifth floor. The existing support columns consisting of steel reinforced concrete were enhanced in the basement and first floor. The building reopened November 13, 2008. The museum\'s fourth floor consisted of a large gallery space that also served as a forum for educational purposes and housed the Michaelis Classroom in an adjacent room. The fifth floor became the home for the museum\'s administrative offices and also housed a conference room and research library. ## Temporary space/Reeves Family ASK Science Center {#temporary_spacereeves_family_ask_science_center} During the museum\'s renovation, programming and exhibitions were held in a temporary location. The museum\'s Reeves Family ASK Science Center moved into donated space in the fall of 2005 and was open until July 2008. The Reeves Family ASK Science Center was a hands-on science education space that featured rotating exhibits. Following the renovation the center returned to its location inside the museum. ## Educational and community outreach {#educational_and_community_outreach} The museum\'s outreach efforts included: The Mobile Met Science Outreach program, which visited schools, YMCA groups, day care facilities and summer school programs from Los Baños to Visalia and provided free hands-on science lessons inspired by the California Science Standards for children in kindergarten though sixth grade. The Docent Outreach Project which allowed teachers in grades 1 through 3 to take advantage of the Met\'s programming without traveling to the museum. The program\'s lessons were one hour long and featured hands-on art instruction. Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS), which used art to teach critical thinking, communication skills and visual literacy. These lessons were provided in English, Spanish and Hmong, free of charge to schools. The Met on the Move program, which debuted on October 13, 2008, included its mobile outreach vehicle, the Met on the Move, which provided hands-on activities and lessons in art and science to elementary schools in and around the Central San Joaquin Valley. The Met on the Move was the latest addition to the City of Fresno\'s Department of Parks After School, Recreation & Community Services Mobile Fleet.

# J. K. Gibson-Graham **J. K. Gibson-Graham** is a pen name shared by feminist economic geographers Julie Graham and Katherine Gibson. The two professors\' landmark first book *The End of Capitalism (As We Knew It)* was first published in 1996, followed by *A Postcapitalist Politics* in 2006. The two scholars also founded The Community Economies Research Network (CERN) and the Community Economies Collective (CEC), \"international collaborative networks of researchers who share an interest in theorizing, discussing, representing and ultimately enacting new visions of economy.\" Julie Graham died on April 4, 2010 of complications from cancer. Since then, Gibson has published some texts under their joint pen name---for instance, as co-editor of The Handbook of Diverse Economies (Gibson-Graham and Dombroski 2020). She has, since Graham's passing, mostly published under her own name, Katherine Gibson. Gibson is currently professor at the Institute of Culture and Society, University of Western Sydney. ## Work Their current work involves rethinking economy and re-visioning economic development. They and the community economies collective draw on human geography (especially economic geography), political economy, poststructuralism, feminism, and ongoing community-based research to pursue three major research directions: - Producing a language of the diverse economy that highlights the variety of transactions, forms of labor, class relations, types of enterprise, ecological relationships, and development dynamics in contemporary economies - Generating narratives, models and projects of non-capitalist and alternative capitalist development - Constructing and strengthening community economies in place through local action research. ## Significance J. K. Gibson-Graham have provided significant contributions to understandings of community economies and economic geography. In both *A Postcapitalist Politics* and *The End of Capitalism (As We Knew It),* Gibson-Graham \"propose to construct a new \'language of economic diversity\'\" that will contribute to our understandings of possible economic structures. They use a Marxist analysis of capitalism but they argue that capitalism is overdetermined and that there are many non-capitalist economic practices that exist alongside it. Based on this insight, they elaborate a \"politics of possibility\" that explores alternatives to exploitative economic practices. As one reviewer notes, Gibson-Graham \"rejects the idea that capitalist economies are tightly organized systems\" and instead presents the economy as consisting of \"many different undertakings, only some of which cluster around market transactions.\" In 1996, Gibson-Graham popularized and furthered discussion on a concept coined \"capitalocentrism\": > This term refers to the dominant representation of all economic activities in terms of their relationship to capitalism---as the same as, the opposite to, a complement of, or contained within capitalism. Our attempts to destabilize the hegemony of capitalocentrism have included a number of theoretical strategies: > > 1\) production of different representations of economic identity, and > > 2\) development of different narratives of economic development. Their work focuses on moving beyond a \"capitalocentric\" viewpoint and recognizing the wide range of economic institutions that co-exist within a given social formation. ## Publications ### Books - J.

# Bridal Veil Falls (Macon County) **Bridal Veil Falls** is a 45 ft waterfall located in the Nantahala National Forest, northwest of Highlands, North Carolina. With a short curve of roadway located behind the falls, it had the distinction of being the only waterfall in the state that one could drive a vehicle under, however this has since been closed and is now used for pedestrian access only. ## Geology Bridal Veil Falls flows on a tributary of the Cullasaja River through the Nantahala National Forest. The falls flows over an overhanging bluff that allows visitors to walk behind the falls and remain dry when the waterflow is low. During periods of drought, the stream may nearly dry up, though visitors will get wet if the waterflow is moderate or high. ## Location Bridal Veil Falls is located on the side of US 64 2.3 miles (3.7 km) north of Highlands, North Carolina. Highway 64 originally used the curve of roadway behind the falls exclusively so that all traffic went behind them; however, this caused problems with icing of the roadway during freezing weather, and Hwy. 64 has been re-routed around the front of the falls since. There is a parking area on the side of the road, where visitors can park and view the falls as well. ## History In 2003, a massive boulder slid off the left side of the falls, blocking that side of the drive-under completely. However, in July 2007, that boulder was removed by a local developer

# Andy Cousin **Andrew Cousin** (born 28 June 1963 in Lincoln) is an English bassist and radio presenter from Mirfield in England. He is principally known for being the bassist of All About Eve and he has also played for The Mission. Since 2016, he presents the Andy Cousin show on Deal Radio. ## Before All About Eve (pre-1985) {#before_all_about_eve_pre_1985} In the early 1980s, Cousin played bass in Huddersfield for goth band Aemotti Crii, along with friend Tim Bricheno. Cousin remained with Aemotti Crii until they split up (circa 1984) and then moved down London for a very brief spell with a synthpop band called Pink and Black, appearing on one of their record covers despite not having played on any of the tracks. ## All About Eve first era (1985--1992) {#all_about_eve_first_era_19851992} Bricheno had left Aemotti Crii and become a member of All About Eve: following the departure of bassist James Jackson, he invited Cousin to join. Cousin became the mainstay bassist, playing on all four of their albums of the era and remaining with the band after Bricheno departed in 1990. ## Seeing Stars (1993) {#seeing_stars_1993} Many fans of the band\'s early sound reacted negatively to the new direction which the band were taking, and poor sales of the fourth album, *Ultraviolet*, caused the band to be dropped by their label, MCA. Cousin, along with drummer Mark Price and guitarist Marty Willson-Piper, remained in the studio to complete work on songs which had been intended for All About Eve\'s fifth album. These songs were eventually released in 1997 as *Seeing Stars*. ## The Mission (1993--1997) {#the_mission_19931997} In late 1993, Cousin joined The Mission after original bassist Craig Adams departed to join The Cult. Cousin played on two albums, *Neverland* and *Blue*, before the band split up. During this time, Cousin also played as a session musician on two songs by Mice, a band created by Regan that existed between 1995 and 1997. ## The Lucy Nation (1997--present) {#the_lucy_nation_1997present} Cousin formed The Lucy Nation with Swedish singer and pianist Anna Nyström (who had also guested on *Seeing Stars*). This band recorded one album, *On* in early 1999 (although only promotional copies were ever distributed) and had one song, \"Alright\", featured on the soundtrack of the film *Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me*. ## All About Eve second era (1999 -- present) {#all_about_eve_second_era_1999_present} At the time The Mission were reforming in 1999, Wayne Hussey asked Cousin to broach with Regan the subject of reforming All About Eve to perform as support band on the Mission\'s tour. Following some successful live performances, All About Eve stayed together as a semi-acoustic three piece (comprising Cousin, Regan and Willson-Piper) and, with the addition of a drummer, as a fully electric band. Cousin remained with the band throughout their second era, including the Fairy Light Nights period and the departure of Willson-Piper in 2002. Alongside Regan, Cousin co-produced the mini-album *Iceland*. In mid-2004, shortly after the release of their first single in a decade, \"Let Me Go Home\", the band split once again following various disagreements between Cousin and Regan, although this rift appeared to have been temporarily healed as All About Eve\'s major compilation *Keepsakes* was released with collaboration from both in early 2006

# Nomination contest A **nomination contest**, in Canadian politics, is the process by which a political party chooses their candidate for the next general election. Each nomination contest is held by the party\'s local riding association. On occasion, a political party\'s head office may bypass the nomination contest and directly appoint its preferred candidate. This tends to be controversial, however. Nomination contests are most commonly held during the three to six months immediately preceding an election call, or in the first week of an election campaign

# William Thomas (Gwilym Marles) **William Thomas** (1834 -- 11 December 1879), better known by his bardic name of **Gwilym Marles**, was a Welsh minister and poet, and the great-uncle of Dylan Thomas. Dylan was given his middle name, \"Marlais\", in honour of William Thomas, who is also believed to have inspired the character of Rev. Eli Jenkins in the play *Under Milk Wood*. ## Life Thomas was born in Brechfa near Llandysul. He had two brothers, one of whom, Evan, was the father of David John Thomas, father of Dylan. William studied at the Presbyterian College in Carmarthen, but won a scholarship which enabled him to go on to the University of Glasgow in 1856. After graduating, he became a minister at Llwynrhydowen, and for a time acted as a tutor to William Thomas (Islwyn), the poet. As well as his poems, which were published in 1859, he wrote hymns and stories, and a novel which was published in 1855 in the periodical *Seren Gomer*. He translated works by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, Robert Browning and Alexander Pope into the Welsh language. He married and had ten children. In 1872 the family moved back to Carmarthen. ## Influence An advocate of the views of Theodore Parker, Gwilym Marles became a champion of Unitarianism, and has been called \"the founder of modern Unitarianism in Wales\", so much did his beliefs diverge from those of other Unitarian ministers. He opened a grammar school, and was politically active, supporting local farmers in a tithe war and campaigning on behalf of the Liberal Party in Parliamentary elections. In 1876, local landlords evicted him from his chapel as a result of these activities. The members of the congregation, who supported him, were also evicted

# Obetrol **Obetrol** was the brand name of a drug combining several amphetamine salts indicated for the treatment of exogenous obesity. It was originally sold by the American company Obetrol Pharmaceuticals. Obetrol was a popular diet pill in America in the 1950s and 1960s. The original formulation of amphetamine mixed salts and methamphetamine was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on January 19, 1960, under the name Obetrol. Indicated for exogenous obesity, between 1965 and 1973, Obetrol was marketed in 10 mg and 20 mg strength through Obetrol Pharmaceuticals division of the American pharmaceutical company Rexar. When sold directly to physicians, Obetrol used the brand name **Oby-Rex**. ## Formulations ### Original In the 1950s, Obetrol was manufactured by Obetrol Pharmaceuticals, in Brooklyn, New York. The company later became a division of Rexar Pharmacal Corporation, which was also headquartered in Brooklyn. Sometime prior to 1972, Rexar Pharmacal moved its manufacturing facilities, including its Obetrol Pharmaceutical Division, to Valley Stream, New York. By the 1990s, Obetrol Pharmaceuticals had been wholly absorbed by Rexar Pharmacal and was no longer noted as a division of Rexar. In 1993, Rexar was acquired by Richwood Pharmaceuticals of Florence, Kentucky, which in 1995 merged with Shire Pharmaceuticals. The 1972 edition of the *Physicians\' Desk Reference* lists Obetrol containing (10 mg tablet): - 2.5 mg methamphetamine saccharate - 2.5 mg methamphetamine hydrochloride - 2.5 mg racemic amphetamine sulfate - 2.5 mg dextroamphetamine sulfate Obetrol was also available in 20 mg tablets which contained twice the quantity of its ingredients, in the same proportions. The 10 mg tablets were blue, and the 20 mg were orange. Both were inscribed with the letters, \"OP\". In 1970 the FDA issued an order requiring new drug applications for previously approved amphetamine products. The FDA was critical of combinations of amphetamines and non-amphetamines, but also considered amphetamine and methamphetamine mixtures a combination drug, and required the ingredients to be effective and safe individually and in combination. In September 1973 the FDA withdrew approval for Obetrol under the FDA Drug Efficacy Study Implementation program. The FDA cited the research submitted was vague, subjective, lacking controls or poorly controlled, incomplete, did not test individual ingredients, and had other deficiencies. ### Modified Because FDA considered combinations of amphetamine and dextroamphetamine salt a single entity, Rexar simply reformulated Obetrol to exclude methamphetamine salts and continued to sell this new formulation under the same Obetrol brand name. This new unapproved formulation was later rebranded and sold as Adderall by Richwood after it acquired Rexar resulting in FDA warning in 1994. Richwood resubmitted this formulation as NDA 11-522 and Adderall gained FDA approval for the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder on February 13, 1996. The reformulated Obetrol (and Adderall) contained equal portions of: - Dextroamphetamine sulfate - Dextroamphetamine saccharine - Amphetamine sulfate - Amphetamine aspartate These tablets were also blue and orange, and were inscribed with the numbers \"32\" and \"33\" respectively. When Richwood acquired Rexar, the drug\'s name was changed from Obetrol to Adderall, and the drug was marketed for use in the treatment of Attention Deficit Disorder (in both children and adults). The old Rexar facility underwent extensive renovations and improvements, and continued to manufacture the drug for several years. During these years, the drug Adderall was identical to the most recent formulation of Obetrol, except that the inscription on the pills was changed to \"AD\". Sometime after 2000, Shire closed the Rexar manufacturing facility, discontinued immediate-release Adderall and outsourced Adderall XR (extended-release) to a manufacturer in North Carolina. Other companies had begun manufacturing generic versions of Adderall, and the trade name was eventually sold to Barr Pharmaceuticals (acquired by Teva in 2008). There is no drug commercially marketed called Obetrol at this time, nor has there been since Richwood acquired Rexar Pharmacal. ## Abuse The ready availability of methamphetamine-based medications in the 1960s led to their use and abuse as recreational drugs. Obetrol was the recreational drug of choice for artist Andy Warhol. Obetrol was abused by a character named Chris Fogle in David Foster Wallace\'s novel *The Pale King*. \"Obetrolling\" or \"doubling\" were the terms used by the character to refer to getting wired on Obetrol, which increased his self-awareness and made him feel alive

# Octavian Paler **Octavian Paler** (`{{IPA|ro|oktaviˈan ˈpalər}}`{=mediawiki} or `{{IPA|ro|ˈpaler|}}`{=mediawiki}; July 2, 1926 -- May 7, 2007) was a Romanian writer, journalist, politician in Communist Romania, and civil society activist in post-1989 Romania. ## Education Paler was born in Lisa, Brașov County. He was educated at Spiru Haret High School in Bucharest. In the summer of 1944, one week before graduating the 7th grade, he was forced to leave the school because of an argument with his uncle and Spiru Haret\'s school headmaster George Șerban. Octavian Paler moved on to Radu Negru High School in Făgăraș, where he studied literature for his final examination. He graduated in 1945 with magna cum laude and outstanding results in philosophy, Latin and Greek. He sat the final examination in Sibiu in the same year. Paler went on to study Philosophy and Law at the University of Bucharest between 1945 and 1949. ## Political activity {#political_activity} Paler was a substitute member in the Central Committee of the Romanian Communist Party from 1974 to 1979, and a member of the Great National Assembly for the Vaslui constituency from 1980 to 1985. However, he was persecuted by the Romanian secret service agency, the Securitate, because of his pro-western views and criticism of Romanian Communist Party, including Nicolae Ceaușescu. He was not allowed to leave his home and suffered restrictions in his artistic work. After the Romanian Revolution and the fall of Ceaușescu in 1989, Paler continued his anti-communist activity as a founding member of the Group for Social Dialogue (*Grupul de Dialog Social*), together with Ana Blandiana and Gabriel Liiceanu amongst others. During his last years he was an intense critic of Romanian politicians and politics. ## Journalism The bulk of his career occurred during the Communist regime, as journalist at the Romanian Radio from 1949 to 1961, vice-president of the Romanian Radio and TV Broadcasting committee from 1965 to 1970, and president of the Romanian Journalists Council in 1976. He worked as a Senior Editor at the influential newspaper *România Liberă* from 1970 to 1983. After 1989, Paler received public appreciation for his journalistic work and political activism and was appointed as the chief editor of *România Liberă*. He also published with *Cotidianul* and *Ziua*, and made appearances on public TV discussing politics and morality. ## Death Paler died of a heart attack on May 7, 2007 at the age of 80, and was buried with military honours in the Sfânta Vineri Cemetery in Bucharest. *Conversations with Octavian Paler* was published by Daniel Cristea-Enache days after his death. In his memory, a street in Făgăraș, the school in his native village, Lisa, and the municipal library in Făgăraș bear his name. ## Trivia Octavian Paler came in 93rd in a poll conducted by Romanian Television to find the \"greatest Romanians of all time\" in 2006

# Wooden ship model **Wooden ship models** or **wooden model ships** are scale representations of ships, constructed mainly of wood. This type of model has been built for over two thousand years. ## Basic types of wooden ship model construction {#basic_types_of_wooden_ship_model_construction} There are five basic types of construction used in building a wooden ship model hull: - Solid wood hull sawn and carved from a single block of wood. - Gluing together two thinner blocks of wood so that a block is formed with the seam vertical, so that the seam will show running down that surface of the block which is to be the deck. No advantage is gained by having the seam show along the sides of the hull. - **Bread and Butter** Cutting four or five thinner slabs of wood (the *Bread*) to be glued (the *Butter*) later into a laminated block. In this case, the slabs will be oriented so that they sit one on top of the other. - **Plank on bulkhead**, a technique in which a series of shaped bulkheads are placed along the keel to form a shaped stage which will be covered with planks to form the hull of the model. - **Plank on frame** In this technique, the model is built just as the full-size wooden ship is constructed. The keel is laid down in a manner which keeps it straight and true.. The sternpost and stem are erected, deadwood and strengthening pieces inserted, and a series of shaped frames are built and erected along the keel to form the internal framework of the model. The planks are then applied over the frame to form the external covering.

# Wooden ship model ## Scale conversion factors {#scale_conversion_factors} from to 1/8 to 3/16 to 1/4 ------ -------- --------- -------- 1/16 2.0 3.0 4.0 1/12 1.5 2.25 3.0 3/32 1.33 2.0 2.67 1/8 1.0 1.5 2.0 5/32 0.8 1.2 1.6 3/16 0.67 1.0 1.33 1.5 0.625 0.94 1.25 7/32 0.57 0.86 1.14 1/4 0.5 0.75 1.0 : style=\"font-weight:normal\" \| Table of Scale Conversion Factors Instead of using plans made specifically for models, many model shipwrights use the actual blueprints for the original vessel. One can take drawings for the original ship to a blueprint service and have them blown up, or reduced to bring them to the new scale. For instance, if the drawings are in 1/4\" scale and you intend to build in 3/16\", tell the service to reduce them 25%. You can use the conversion table below to determine the percentage of change. You can easily work directly from the original drawings however, by changing scale each time you make a measurement. The equation for converting a measurement in one scale to that of another scale is **D2 = D1 × F**, where: - D1 = Dimension in the \"from-scale\" - D2 = Dimension in the \"to-scale\" - F = Conversion factor between scales Example: A yardarm is 6 inches long in 3/16\" scale. Find its length in 1/8\" scale. - F = .67 (from table) - D2 = 6\" × .67 = 4.02 = **4\"** It is easier to make measurements in the metric system and then multiply them by the scale conversion factor. Scales are expressed in fractional inches, but fractions themselves are harder to work with than metric measurements. For example, a hatch measures 1\" wide on the draft. You are building in 3/16\" scale. Measuring the hatch in metric, you measure 25 mm. The conversion factor for 1/4\" to 3/16\", according to the conversion table is .75. So 25 mm × .75 = 18.75 mm, or about 19 mm. That is the hatch size in 3/16\" scale. Conversion is a fairly simple task once you start measuring in metric and converting according to the scale. There is a simple conversion factor that allows you to determine the approximate size of a model by taking the actual measurements of the full-size ship and arriving at a scale factor. It is a rough way of deciding whether you want to build a model that is about two feet long, three feet long, or four feet long. Here is a ship model conversion example using a real ship, the *Hancock*. This is a frigate appearing in Chappelle\'s *History of American Sailing Ships*. In this example we want to estimate its size as a model. We find that the length is given at 136 ft 7 in, which rounds off to 137 feet. ------------ ---------------------- 1/8 scale Feet divided by 8 3/16 scale Feet divided by 5.33 1/4 scale Feet divided by 4 ------------ ---------------------- To convert feet (of the actual ship) to the number of inches long that the model will be, use the factors in the table on the right. To find the principal dimensions (length, height, and width) of a (square-rigged) model in 1/8\" scale, then: 1. Find scaled length by dividing 137 by 8 = 17.125\" 2. Find 50% of 17.125 and add it to 17.125 (8.56 + 17.125 = 25.685, about 25.5) 3. Typically, the height of this model will be its length less 10%, or about 23.1/2\" 4. Typically, the beam of this model will be its length divided by 4, or about 6½\" Although this technique allows you to judge the approximate length of a proposed model from its true footage, only square-riggers will fit the approximate height and beam by the above factors. To approximate these dimensions on other craft, scale the drawings from which you found the length and arrive at her mast heights and beam

# Ahmose-ankh **Ahmose-ankh** was a crown prince during the reign of Ahmose I (r. 1570-1546 BC high chronology) in the early Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt. ## Family He was the son of Pharaoh Ahmose I and Queen Ahmose Nefertari. He was the crown prince but pre-deceased his father, thus the next pharaoh was his younger brother Amenhotep I. His sister was Ahmose-Meritamun. As his father ascended the throne at the age of 10, Ahmose-ankh must have been born well into the reign. Secondly, he seems to have died at the second part of his fathers reign which lasted 25 years. As a result, Ahmose-ankh was most likely around 20 years old or younger when he died. ## Attestation - Harari, ASAE 56 \| A stela which depicts him with his parents (Luxor Museum)

# Fang Xuanling **Fang Qiao** (579 -- 18 August 648), courtesy name **Xuanling**, better known as **Fang Xuanling** (`{{zh|t=房玄齡}}`{=mediawiki}), posthumously known as **Duke Wenzhao of Liang**, was a Chinese statesman and writer who served as a chancellor under Emperor Taizong in the early Tang dynasty. He was the lead editor of the historical record *Book of Jin* (covering the history of the Jin dynasty (266--420)) and one of the most celebrated Tang dynasty chancellors. He and his colleague, Du Ruhui, were often described as role models for chancellors in imperial China. ## During the Sui dynasty {#during_the_sui_dynasty} Fang Xuanling was born in 579, shortly before the founding of the Sui dynasty in 581, during Sui\'s predecessor state, Northern Zhou. His great-grandfather Fang Yi (*房翼*) was a general, official, and hereditary count under the Northern Wei dynasty, and his grandfather Fang Xiong (*房熊*) was also an official. His father Fang Yanqian (*房彥謙*) was a county magistrate during the Sui dynasty. Fang Xuanling was said to be intelligent and well-learned in his youth, and particularly skillful at calligraphy. It was said that once, when he accompanied his father to the capital Chang\'an, the state was peaceful, and the popular sentiment was that Sui would last a long time. However, Fang Xuanling secretly opined to his father: Fang Yanqian was surprised by his son\'s opinion, which, however, eventually turned out to be prophetic. When he was 17, he was successful at the imperial examination, and he became a military officer. He particularly impressed the deputy minister of civil service, Gao Xiaoji (*高孝基*). However, it appeared that he did not serve long, as his father became ill, and the illness lasted 10 years, during which Fang Xuanling attended to him earnestly. After his father\'s death, he fasted for five days. He later became the magistrate of Xicheng County (*隰城*, in modern Lüliang, Shanxi). In 617, when the general Li Yuan rebelled against the rule of Emperor Wen\'s son Emperor Yang, one of Li Yuan\'s major generals was his son Li Shimin. Fang Xuanling went to Li Shimin\'s camp and offered his services. It was said that as soon as Li Shimin met Fang, they became like old friends, and Li Shimin invited him to serve on staff. Fang served Li Shimin faithfully, and wherever Li Shimin campaigned, while his staff members would collect treasures, Fang spent the time interviewing the people of the area and retained the capable people to add to Li Shimin\'s staff. In 618, after news arrived at Chang\'an (which Li Yuan had taken in winter 617 and where he declared Emperor Yang\'s grandson Yang You the Prince of Dai emperor (as Emperor Gong)) that Emperor Yang had been killed in a coup at Jiangdu (江都, in modern Yangzhou, Jiangsu), led by the general Yuwen Huaji, Li Yuan had Yang You yield the throne to him, establishing the Tang dynasty as its Emperor Gaozu. He created Li Shimin, the Prince of Qin. Fang continued to serve on Li Shimin\'s staff.

# Fang Xuanling ## During Emperor Gaozu\'s reign {#during_emperor_gaozus_reign} In 621, when Li Shimin defeated Tang\'s major enemy Wang Shichong the Emperor of Zheng and captured the Zheng capital Luoyang (which had served as Sui\'s eastern capital), it was said that he sent Fang to the offices of Sui\'s legislative and examination bureaus of government to try to preserve Sui archives, but Fang\'s mission turned out to be unsuccessful as the archives had already been destroyed by Wang. Later in 621, when Emperor Gaozu, awarding Li Shimin for his great accomplishments, bestowed on him the unprecedented title of \"Grand General of Heavenly Tactics\" (`{{zhi|c=天策上將|p=Tiance Shangjiang}}`{=mediawiki}), Li Shimin built a mansion where he housed those staff members with the best literary talent, supplying them with the best food and supplies and had them conduct research and writing. Fang was part of this establishment, along with, among others, the fellow future chancellors Du Ruhui and Xu Jingzong. When Du was subsequently commissioned as a prefectural secretary general, Fang told Li Shimin that Du was an uncommon talent that he should do everything he could to retain, and Li Shimin thus persuaded Emperor Gaozu to allow Du to remain on his staff. It was said that Fang was capable in planning and strategizing, but not decisive in his decisions, while Du was capable in making quick and correct decisions, and they divided their strategical responsibilities while on Li Shimin\'s staff in that manner. (This eventually led to the Chinese proverb \"Fang plans and Du decides\" (`{{zhi|c=房謀杜斷|p=Fang mou Du duan}}`{=mediawiki}), after they became renowned.) By 626, Li Shimin was locked in an intense rivalry with his older brother, Li Jiancheng the Crown Prince, and Fang and Du often suggested that he act first against Li Jiancheng. As both Li Jiancheng and another brother who supported Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji the Prince of Qi, feared Fang\'s and Du\'s strategic capabilities, they falsely accused both Fang and Du and had them demoted out of Li Shimin\'s staff. In summer 626, when Li Shimin decided to act against Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, however, he summoned Fang and Du to his mansion. Fang and Du, initially fearing Emperor Gaozu\'s orders forbidding them to serve Li Shimin, declined. In anger, Li Shimin sent the general Yuchi Gong to summon Fang and Du, with directions if they declined again, to kill them. Yuchi, however, was able to persuade them that Li Shimin was in fact intending on acting against Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, and so Fang and Du put on disguises as Taoist monks and were able to get to Li Shimin\'s mansions, where they assisted Li Shimin in planning the ambush against Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji. Li Shimin subsequently ambushed his brothers as Xuanwu Gate and killed them, and then effectively forced Emperor Gaozu to create him crown prince. Once he was created crown prince, Fang and Du were restored to honored positions on his staff, and soon, Fang was made the *Zhongshu Ling* (*中書令*) --- the head of the legislative bureau and a post considered one for a chancellor. Two months later, Emperor Gaozu yielded the throne to Li Shimin (as Emperor Taizong).

# Fang Xuanling ## During Emperor Taizong\'s reign {#during_emperor_taizongs_reign} Later in 626, when Eastern Tujue\'s Jiali Khan Ashina Duobi launched a major incursion into Tang territory, reaching all the way to Chang\'an, Fang Xuanling, along with Gao Shilian, attended to Emperor Taizong as he personally met Ashina Duobi to promise additional tributes, to induce Ashina Duobi to withdraw. Later in 626, when Emperor Taizong personally ranked the contributions of the generals and officials in order to grant them fiefs, Emperor Taizong ranked five of them --- Fang, Zhangsun Wuji, Du Ruhui, Yuchi Gong, and Hou Junji to be contributors of the highest grade, and Fang was created the Duke of Han. When Emperor Gaozu\'s cousin Li Shentong (*李神通*) the Prince of Huai\'an, himself a key general, objected to being ranked below Fang and Du, stating that Fang and Du, in particular, were only bureaucrats, Emperor Taizong pointed out that it was with their strategies that he was able to become emperor, Li Shentong relented, which led to the other objectors to also cease their objections. Later in 627, under Emperor Taizong\'s direction, Fang carried out a major simplification of the central government, reducing the number of officials at the central government to 634. In 629, Fang, along with Du, became *Puye* (*僕射*), the head of the important executive bureau of the government (*尚書省*, *Shangshu Sheng*). It was said that at this time that the Fang and Du became known as the model for chancellors. It was also said that Fang, even though he had reached the pinnacle of officials\' careers, was still very humble before the emperor, and whenever he received a rebuke, he would act as if a disaster was coming. He also became responsible for organizing the imperial archives and the writing of official histories. Later that year, the assistant imperial censor Quan Wanji (*權萬紀*) accused Fang and Wang Gui of being partial in their selections of officials, and Emperor Taizong initially ordered Hou to investigate. However, with the urging of another chancellor, Wei Zheng, who pointed out that Fang and Wang were trusted officials given important responsibilities, and it was inappropriate to pick on details of what they did, Emperor Taizong stopped the investigation. In 630, when Emperor Taizong began to have his crown prince Li Chengqian formally rule on a number of matters of state, he commissioned Fang and Li Gang (李綱) to sit with the Crown Prince and assist him in making the decisions. Also in 630, his title was changed to Duke of Wei. In 636, for reasons unknown, Fang was briefly removed from his post and returned to his mansion. When Emperor Taizong\'s wife Empress Zhangsun (Zhangsun Wuji\'s sister) died later that year, she, in her final words, pointed out to Emperor Taiizong that Fang had faithfully served him throughout his career and should not be removed. After her death, Emperor Taizong restored Fang to his post. In 637, as part of Emperor Taizong\'s scheme to bestow prefectures on his relatives and great generals and officials as their permanent domains, Fang\'s title was changed to Duke of Liang, and he was given the post of prefect of Songzhou, to be inherited by his heirs, although he did not actually report to Songzhou but remained at Chang\'an as chancellor. Soon, however, with many objections to the system, the strongest of which came from Zhangsun Wuji, Emperor Taizong cancelled the scheme, although Fang\'s title remained Duke of Liang. Also in 637, a major revision of the laws, led by Fang, was completed, and the penal laws were said to be far more lenient than the Sui penal code, on which Fang\'s revision was based, with 500 statutory sections and 20 grades of penalty. Also that year, the code of rites, authored by him and Wei Zheng, was also completed. In 638, Emperor Taizong, celebrating the birth of a grandson, held a feast for imperial officials, at which he made the comment: He then awarded both Fang and Wei an imperial sword. In 639, Emperor Taizong made Fang a senior advisor to Li Chengqian, ordering him to bow to Fang as he would to Emperor Taizong. However, Fang was humble and never gave the Crown Prince any opportunity to bow to him, an act of humility which was praised. By this point, Fang\'s children were also highly honored, and his second son Fang Yi\'ai (*房遺愛*) married Emperor Taizong\'s daughter Princess Gaoyang, while his daughter married Emperor Taizong\'s brother Li Yuanjia (*李元嘉*) the Prince of Han. In 641, Fang and Gao Shilian drew rebuke from Emperor Taizong when they inquired the deputy imperial architect, Dou Desu (*竇德素*) of imperial construction projects --- which Emperor Taizong saw as an encroachment on his liberty. However, Wei pointed out that chancellors were supposed to be responsible for all affairs of state, and Emperor Taizong, realizing that he had erred, was humbled. in 642, Fang was awarded the additional highly honorable title *Sikong* (*司空*) --- one of the Three Excellencies. Later that year, when Emperor Taizong was debating whether warring with Xueyantuo or making peace by marrying his daughter Princess Xinxing to Xueyantuo\'s Zhenzhu Khan Yi\'nan, Fang was a proponent of peace, and Emperor Taizong agreed, although Emperor Taizong later changed his mind and broke the marriage treaty. In 643, when Emperor Taizong commissioned the Portraits at Lingyan Pavilion to commemorate the 24 great contributors to Tang rule, Fang\'s was one of the portraits commissioned. Later in 643, when Li Chengqian, fearing that Emperor Taizong would depose him in favor of his more favored brother Li Tai the Prince of Wei, was revealed to have plotted with Hou Junji to overthrow Emperor Taizong, Emperor Taizong had Zhangsun, Fang, Xiao Yu, Li Shiji, along with the responsible officials at the legislative and examination bureaus and the supreme court, investigate the matter. They confirmed Li Chengqian\'s guilt, and Li Chengqian was subsequently deposed, although Emperor Taizong, believing that Li Tai\'s machinations were responsible for Li Chengqian\'s downfall, exiled Li Tai as well and created another son, Li Zhi, crown prince. He subsequently made Zhangsun, Fang, and Xiao Li Zhi\'s senior advisors. Later that year, Emperor Taizong requested to read the official history that Fang had written about during his reign, and Fang initially resisted, stating that it would set a bad precedent (as previously, it was considered inappropriate for emperors to read histories of their own reign, lest that historians be hindered from recording incidents accurately). Emperor Taizong disagreed, and Fang thus submitted what he and his staff had written. Emperor Taizong noticed that Fang had avoided some of the more sensitive parts of the Incident at Xuanwu Gate, and he ordered Fang to write a more complete and less censored version. In 645, when Emperor Taizong personally led a campaign against Goguryeo, Fang was put in charge of the capital. It was said that there was an incident where a man approached Fang and stated, \"I am here to report that you are committing treason.\" Fang bound him and delivered him to Emperor Taizong. When the man arrived at Emperor Taizong\'s camp and accused Fang of treason, Emperor Taizong immediately executed the man and sent an edict to Fang, rebuking him for lack of confidence in himself, stating, \"If something like this happens again, you should carry out the decisive act yourself.\"

# Fang Xuanling ## During Emperor Taizong\'s reign {#during_emperor_taizongs_reign} In or around 646, Fang was again, for reasons unknown in history but described to be minor reasons, removed from his post and returned to his mansion. After Chu Suiliang submitted a petition stating that Fang\'s faithfulness should not be forgotten, Emperor Taizong visited Fang\'s mansion -- a visit that Fang anticipated and had cleaned his house for -- and he had Fang accompany him on the imperial wagon back to palace. Fang was said to be so influential in Emperor Taizong\'s decision-making by this stage that an amusing incident occurred in 647, involving the official Li Wei (*李緯*). Emperor Taizong, then at his summer palace Cuiwei Palace (*翠微宮*, in the Qinling Mountains), leaving Fang again in charge of Chang\'an, had commissioned Li Wei as the minister of finances. When a messenger arrived from Chang\'an, Emperor Taizong asked the messenger what Fang had said about Li Wei, and the messenger responded, \"When Fang Xuanling heard that Li Wei was made a minister, all he stated was, \'Li Wei has a handsome beard.\'\" Emperor Taizong, realizing that Fang was making a veiled comment that Li was not a proper minister, demoted Li Wei to the post of prefect of Luo Prefecture (*洛州*, roughly Luoyang). In 648, the *Book of Jin*, the official history of Jin dynasty, with Fang as its lead editor, was completed. Also in 648, when Emperor Taizong was at another summer palace, Yuhua Palace (*玉華宮*, in modern Tongchuan, Shaanxi), he again left Fang in charge of Chang\'an, when Fang grew ill. Emperor Taizong summoned him to Yuhua Palace and had the imperial servants attend to him. For a while, Fang got better, and then grew worse. In his illness, Fang believed that the only danger that the empire faced at that point was Emperor Taizong\'s anger at Goguryeo, and therefore wrote an earnest petition urging the cessation of campaigns against Goguryeo. When Emperor Taizong saw the petition, he stated to Princess Gaoyang, \"He is this ill, and yet he still worries so much about my empire.\" He personally visited Fang to bid farewell, and in fall 649, Fang died at Yuhua Palace and was buried near Empress Zhangsun\'s tomb (where Emperor Taizong would eventually himself be buried as well). The Tang dynasty historian Liu Fang (*柳芳*) made these comments about Fang and Du Ruhui: However, the honors the Fang clan received would not last long after Fang Xuanling\'s death. Emperor Taizong himself died in 649 and was succeeded by Li Zhi (as Emperor Gaozong). In 653, Fang Yi\'ai and Princess Gaoyang were accused of plotting, along with the general Xue Wanche (*薛萬徹*), Emperor Gaozong\'s uncle Li Yuanjing (*李元景*) the Prince of Jing, Li Ke the Prince of Wu, and another brother-in-law of Emperor Gaozong, Chai Lingwu (*柴令武*), to overthrow Emperor Gaozong and making Li Yuanjing emperor. Fang Yi\'ai was executed, and his older brother Fang Yizhi (*房遺直*) was demoted to be a county sheriff in modern Guangdong. Fang Xuanling, whom Emperor Gaozong had ordered to be worshipped at the imperial shrine with Emperor Taizong, was removed from the imperial shrine. ## Popular culture {#popular_culture} - Portrayed by Park Young-ji in 2006-2007 SBS TV series *Yeon Gaesomun*. - Ancestor of Jackie Chan

# Janko Kráľ Park **Janko Kráľ Park** (*Sad Janka Kráľa*, literally *Janko Kráľ Orchard/Garden*; formerly called *Städtischer Aupark* (in German), is a park in Bratislava\'s Petržalka borough. It is located in the northern part of Petržalka, bordered by the Danube in the north, the Old Bridge access road in the east, a main road in the south and the Nový Most access road in the west. The park is one of the oldest municipal parks in Europe. The statue of Janko Kráľ is situated in the park. The park was established in 1774--76 with the intention of creating a park for the public. Under the influence of Baroque classicism, the walks were set up in the shape of an eight-leg star and trees were planted along them. Each allée was named after its corresponding species of tree (alder, maple, willow, etc.). The park attained its present-day shape in 1839, and was revamped in the 1970s. The Petržalka Stadium, home to the FC Artmedia Bratislava football club, was located near the park, before its demolition in 2012. The Arena Theatre is also located nearby. The Gothic tower (*Gotická veža*) is the prominent architectural structure in Janko Kráľ Park. It is the primary garden arbour and was previously a Franciscan church tower. This Gothic tower was built in the early 15th century at the intersection of the South facing Franciscan church: carved by Michael Chnam. In 1897, an earthquake damaged the upper part of the tower, requiring that it be rebuilt, which was done in a Neogothic style by project architect Frigyes Schulek. The original top of the tower, after the earthquake, was placed in Janko Kráľ Park, where it is now an arbour

# Anti-Jacobin Review `{{Conservatism UK|Media}}`{=mediawiki} ***The Anti-Jacobin Review and Magazine, or, Monthly Political and Literary Censor***, was a British conservative political journal active from 1798 to 1821. Founded by John Gifford after the cancellation of William Gifford\'s periodical *Anti-Jacobin*, the journal contained essays, reviews, and satirical engravings. Its content has been described as \"often scurrilous\" and \"ultra-Tory\" and was a prominent element of British hostility to Jacobinism and the broader ideals of the French Revolution. ## History The first edition was published on 1 August 1798 and was advertised in *The Times* as \"containing Original Criticism; a Review of the Reviewers; Miscellaneous Matter in Prose and Verse, Lists of Marriages, Births, Deaths and Promotions; and a Summary of Foreign and Domestic Politics.\" Gifford served as its editor until 1806. The periodical was covertly funded by the British government. ## Positions Gifford called the periodical a champion of \"religion, morality, and social order, as supported by the existing establishments, ecclesiastical and civil, of this country. The periodical promoted conspiracy theories of attempts to establish Jacobinism in Britain, accusing the *Monthly Review*, the *Analytical Review* and *The Critical Review* of spreading Jacobinism through \"secret channels, disguised in various ways.\" It supported the passage of the Unlawful Societies Act 1799 and the Combination Act 1799, arguing that the state needed the \"wisdom to repress\" in order to effectively defeat \"domestic traitors.\" It also opposed the Irish Rebellion of 1798. ## Reception The periodical denounced reformers, especially the Evangelicals, and greatly angered them, as prominent politician and campaigner William Wilberforce made clear in 1800: > It is a most mischievous publication, which, by dint of assuming a tone of the highest loyalty and attachment to our establishment in church and state, secures a prejudice in its favour, and has declared war against what I think the most respectable and most useful of all orders of men---the serious clergy of the Church of England. . . . Its opposition to the evangelical clergy is carried on in so venomous a way, and with so much impudence, and so little regard to truth, that the mischief it does is very great indeed. It accuses them in the plainest terms, and sometimes by name, as being disaffected both to church and state

# Ahmose-Sitamun **Ahmose-Sitamun** or just **Sitamun** was a princess of the early Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. ## Etymology Her name Ahmose-Sitamun (sꜣt-jmn; Sat-Amun/Satamun) means \"Child of the Moon, Daughter of Amun\". ## Biography Sitamun was the daughter of Pharaoh Ahmose I and sister of Amenhotep I. Her titles were: King\'s Daughter (sꜣt-nsw); King\'s Sister (snt-nsw); God\'s Wife (ḥmt-nṯr) Her name was written in cartouche. By Year 18 of Ahmose I (1570-1546 BC high chronology), her title string included King\'s Daughter and God\'s Wife. When her brother Amenhotep I (1545-1526 BC high chronology) became king, the title King\'s Sister was added to her title string. ## Attestations ### Barracco 16 {#barracco_16} A stela belonging to a subordinate of King\'s Daughter Satamun. ### Hannover 1935.200.209 {#hannover_1935.200.209} A limestone stela dating to Year 18 of Ahmose I where she is King\'s Daughter and God\'s Wife. ### Benson, Gourlay, Temple, 297-299 (IV), pl.

# Desideratus **Desideratus** (died 550) was a French saint from Soissons in the Christian church. Disideratus came from a family of saints, as his father, Auginus, mother, Agia, and brothers Desiderius and Deodatus, were all canonized. The parents taught the boys to care for the poor and to use their possessions to aid others. Desideratus became chancellor for King Clotaire and sought to eliminate simony and heresy in Clotaire\'s lands. He became archdeacon at Bourges. Desideratus wished to retire to a monastery but Clotaire argued that he should put the needs of his subjects ahead of himself. In 549 he succeeded Arcadius as Bishop of Bourges. As bishop he often mediated disputes in the region and managed to reconcile Anjou and Poitou, who had been in conflict. At the fifth Council of Orleans and second Council of Auvergne, he combated Nestorianism. He died on May 8, 550. May 8 is his feast day. St. Desideratus is invoked for rain

# Nuptial flight **Nuptial flight** is an important phase in the reproduction of most ant, termite, and some bee species. It is also observed in some fly species, such as *Rhamphomyia longicauda*. During the flight, virgin queens mate with males and then land to start a new colony, or, in the case of honey bees, continue the succession of an existing hived colony. The winged version of ants and termites are known as alates. ## Before the flight {#before_the_flight} A mature ant colony seasonally produces winged virgin queens and males, called alates. Unfertilized eggs develop into males. Fertilized eggs usually develop into wingless, sterile workers, but may develop into virgin queens if the larvae receive special attention. Within a few days after they have emerged (eclosed) from the pupa case, males are \"quickly converted into single-purpose sexual missiles.\" Young queens and males stay in their parent colony until conditions are right for the nuptial flight. The flight requires clear weather since rain is disruptive for flying insects. Different colonies of the same species often use environmental cues to synchronize the release of males and queens so that they can mate with individuals from other nests, thus reducing inbreeding. The actual \"take off\" from the parent colony is also often synchronized to overwhelm their predators. ## During the flight {#during_the_flight} Typically the virgin queens and males first scatter to ensure outcrossing. The queens then release pheromones to attract males. However, the queens often try to escape the males, allowing only the fastest and the fittest males to mate. Mating takes place during flight. One queen usually mates with several males. The sperm is stored in a special organ, known as a spermatheca, in the queen\'s abdomen, and lasts throughout her lifetime. This can be as long as 20 years, during which time the sperm can be used to fertilize tens of millions of eggs. ## After the flight {#after_the_flight} The males have evolved for the single purpose of inseminating the queen. During \"the quick and violent mating,\" the male places his internal genitalia into the genital chamber of the queen and quickly dies. The young mated queens land and, in the case of most ants and all termites, remove their wings. They then attempt to found a new colony. The details of this vary from species to species, but typically involve the excavation of the colony\'s first chamber and the subsequent laying of eggs. From this point the queen continuously lays eggs which hatch into larvae, exclusively destined to develop into worker ants. The queen usually nurses the first brood alone. After the first workers appear, the queen\'s role in the colony typically becomes one of exclusive (and generally continuous) egg-laying. For an example of a colony founding process, see *Atta sexdens*. The young queens have an extremely high failure rate. During its lifetime a very large ant colony can send out millions of virgin queens. Assuming that the total number of ant colonies in the area remains constant, on average only one of these queens succeeds. The rest are destroyed by predators (most notably other ants), environmental hazards or failures in raising the first brood at various stages of the process. This strict selection ensures that the queen has to be both extremely fit and extremely lucky to pass on her genes to the next generation. <File:Lasius> Niger winged queen.jpg\|Queen with wings <File:Lasius> Niger wingless queen.jpg\|Queen with her wings torn off ## Variations Not all ants follow the basic pattern described above. In army ants only males are alates, having wings. They fly out from their parent colony in search of other colonies where wingless virgin queens wait for them. A colony with an old queen and one or more mated young queens then divides, each successful queen taking a share of the workers. The reason for this behavior is the fact that army ants do not have a physical nest. The queens are thus absolutely dependent on workers to protect them. Another variation is found in species with multi-queen colonies, such as *Solenopsis invicta*. The males and virgin queens mate and the queens then often return to the parent colony, where they then remain. This process greatly increases the success rate of virgin queens and allows the creation of extremely large supercolonies. The colony also becomes essentially immortal as it is no longer dependent on the continued health of a single queen. This allows *Solenopsis invicta* colonies to become entrenched in their surroundings, achieving a dominant position in the ecosystem. However, the price for this is inbreeding and the resulting loss of adaptability. This may result in sudden collapses in population when the environment changes or a new predator or parasite is introduced.

# Nuptial flight ## Flying ant day {#flying_ant_day} \"Flying ant day\" is an informal term for the day on which future queen ants emerge from the nest to begin their nuptial flight, although citizen science based research has demonstrated that nuptials flights are not particularly spatially or temporally synchronised. However, the number of ants flying on certain days can be large enough to be detected by weather service radar systems, resembling rain showers. In most species, the male ants fly alongside them, although they are smaller and less noticeable. The queens fly around -- some covering very long distances, others only a few meters -- then mate and drop to the ground, where they lose their wings and attempt to start a new ant colony. The mass of flying insects often attracts the attention of predators such as birds, and it is common to see flocks gorging on the readily available food. This phenomenon occurs in many colonies simultaneously when local weather conditions are appropriate, to reduce the effectiveness of predation, and to ensure that the queens and males from different colonies stand a chance of meeting and interbreeding. It therefore has the appearance of being a \'timed\' event or that the ants somehow communicate. However neither of these is likely to be the case -- it could be simply a common response to temperature, humidity and wind speed and time of year

The pair play a couple of naturists planning their wedding, and claim they were misled about the amount of nudity involved in the film. Webb said in an interview that Isitt had told them their genitals would all be pixelated in the final film, and was not aware until the screening that this was not the case. Colman and Webb started legal proceedings against the filmmaker, but these were eventually abandoned when the actors concluded it was too late and the lengthy process would prevent them from \"pretending it didn\'t happen\"

# Ashen Victor ***Ashen Victor***, known in Japan as `{{nihongo|'''''Haisha'''''|灰者|}}`{=mediawiki}, is a futuristic manga by Yukito Kishiro, taking place in the same universe as his *Battle Angel Alita* series, specifically in the Scrapyard. ## Plot The story takes place before the events of *Battle Angel Alita* and revolves around Snev, a motorballer nicknamed the \"Crash King\" due to the way his races usually end. Although a promising athlete, even termed a \"prodigy\" by his mentors, Snev lacks the confidence to advance his career following a traumatic accident on the track six months earlier. ## Characters **Snev** : The protagonist and title character, Snev is a young and talented motorball player who has not finished a single race since he started racing for Team Spandau, having crashed each time. However, his brain has remarkably remained intact, enabling him to race again and again. Eventually cut from Team Spandau, he is soon brought back because he has gained a following among motorball fans who actually prefer to see and experience a player crash rather than win a race. **Beretta** : A beautiful prostitute and Snev\'s closest friend. Despite Snev\'s record, she believes in him and predicts an eventual return for him to motorball which includes victory. **Holmegolud** : Team Spandau\'s tiny engineer, Holmegolud is the only person on the team who still believes earnestly in Snev. He ends up playing a critical role in uncovering the reasons behind Snev\'s continuous crashes. **Lorna** : Beretta\'s friend. A prostitute herself, Lorna was entrusted by Beretta with seeking Snev out with information that could be of help to him prior to her death. **Ben** : Team Spandau\'s manager, Ben was approached six months ago by the team doctor with a plan to make some chips by testing two drugs for the Megil Corporation, \"Accel\" and \"Adam\", on Dragunov and Snev, respectively. He has a tendency to be forgetful, which results in his and the team\'s undoing. **Dragunov** : Snev\'s sole teammate on Team Spandau, Dragunov is his complete opposite in terms of attitude and racing record, being an arrogant player on track to becoming the next champion. Completely contemptuous of Snev, Dragunov uses the drug \"Accel\" to accelerate his nervous system. **The Marathon Man** : An unknown, mysterious, and probably insane man who, without warning, suddenly jumped onto the motorball track during Snev\'s debut race six months ago wearing a runner\'s outfit and began running directly into the path of the players, laughing all the while. He was killed when Snev plowed into him at 300 km/h. The Marathon Man now manifests himself as a violent, self-destructive element of Snev\'s consciousness that compels him to crash each time he races. ## Depiction of motorball {#depiction_of_motorball} Motorball in *Ashen Victor* is still focused largely on the players\' racing ability. Despite his dismal racing record, Snev impressed those who watched him by performing exceptionally during his tryouts, although it is suggested that talented players like him are becoming a rarity. Players are not explicitly depicted as fighting during a race, and are not yet equipped with the variety of weapons that are seen later on in *Battle Angel Alita*. However, the sport is moving in a more violent direction driven by the bloodlust of the audience. Ben mentions that motorball is no longer a sport and that the audience now comes more for the violence. Holmegolud, who is much older than he is, also states that motorball is now \"all carnage and no skill.\" This trend towards an increasing desire for violence on the part of the spectators is also reflected in the results of a viewer poll conducted by the owner of Team Spandau, which finds that their monitor viewers prefer to experience a crash rather than an actual motorball victory. The use of performance-enhancing drugs is also becoming an accepted practice, as is shown in Dragunov\'s endorsement of the nervous system accelerant \"Accel\" and its rising popularity. He continues to use the drug after the dissolution of Team Spandau until his retirement from motorball as a result of abusing it

# Arrupe Jesuit High School **Arrupe Jesuit High School** is a private, Roman Catholic coeducational college-preparatory high school run by the USA Central and Southern Province of the Society of Jesus in Denver, Colorado, United States. Founded in 2003, it is part of the Cristo Rey Network and places students in business internships to help defray the cost of tuition. The school is run independently in the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Denver. ## History Arrupe Jesuit High School was founded by the Missouri Province (renamed USA Central and Southern Province) of the Jesuits and business leaders in Denver as a school using the Cristo Rey model to serve economically disadvantaged students. The school was named after the former superior general of the Jesuit order, Father Pedro Arrupe. In early 2003, the school purchased the Holy Family Catholic School campus in northwest Denver to house the new program. The school opened in August 2003 with a class of ninth graders and added another grade each year until the 2006-2007 school year, which saw the school\'s first graduating class of 47 students. In 2017 it had a 10-year record of graduating all its students and having all of them accepted into college. Only 36% of Hispanics and 55% of African-Americans graduate from high school in Denver. To expand its enrollment, Arrupe Jesuit High completed an \$11-million building program in 2015, which added seven classrooms with advanced technology, student fitness and activities rooms, a new cafeteria, and additional office space. A new chapel was built in the former building, along with three new classrooms and office and work space. Arrupe was chosen as a successful school by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The Gates Foundation has also given \$18.9 million in support of Cristo Rey schools across the country. Each year some graduates of Jesuit schools who have finished college volunteer to assist at Arrupe, through the Alum Service Corps program. ## Curriculum Arrupe requires students to earn about two-thirds of the annual cost of their education through a corporate work-study program where students job-share entry-level positions, working five days a month from mid-August to early June. Students have 6 academic classes per day, and if they fail to do their homework they have mandatory study hall (7th Period). ## Extracurricular activities {#extracurricular_activities} Athletic teams at Arrupe compete at the 3A level in Colorado High School Activities Association-sanctioned competition. Teams are fielded in men\'s soccer, women\'s volleyball, men\'s and women\'s basketball, women\'s soccer, baseball, and cross-country

# Mutnofret **Mutnofret** (\"Mut is Beautiful\"), also rendered as Mutneferet or Mutnefert, was a queen during the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. She was a secondary wife of Thutmose I and the mother of his successor Thutmose II; Thutmose I\'s chief wife, however, was his sister Queen Ahmose, the mother of Hatshepsut. Based on her title of *King\'s Daughter*, she is likely to have been a daughter of Ahmose I and a sister of Amenhotep I, who married the latter\'s successor Thutmose I. It is possible that she was also the mother of Thutmose I\'s other sons, Amenmose and Wadjmose. The connection of Thutmose I and Thutmose II to the earlier kings Ahmose and Amenhotep I (and also the mother of Wadjmose and Amenmose) was conjectured to have been Queen Ahmose in older and sometimes even current literature. However, the absence of the title *King\'s Daughter* among the titles of Queen Ahmose has been considered decisive in indicating she was not the daughter of an earlier king, and owed her primacy to being the sister (as indicated by her title *King\'s Sister*) of the new king Thutmose I, himself the son of non-reigning parents: his mother Senisonbe is titled only *King\'s Mother*. The admittedly rare attestation of the title *King\'s Daughter* for Mutnofret suggests it was she, not Queen Ahmose, who connected their husband Thutmose I to his immediate predecessors. Mutnofret was depicted in the Deir el-Bahri temple built by her grandson Thutmose III; on a stela found at the Ramesseum; on the colossus of her son; and a statue of her bearing a dedication by Thutmose II was found in Wadjmose\'s chapel. This suggests that Mutnofret was still alive during her son\'s reign

# Hanging punctuation **Hanging punctuation** or **exdentation** is a microtypographic technique of typesetting punctuation marks and bullet points, most commonly quotation marks and hyphens, further towards the edge so that they do not disrupt the 'flow' of a body of text or 'break' the margin of alignment. It is so called because the punctuation appears to hang in the margin of the text and is not incorporated into the block or column of text. It is commonly used when text is fully justified. ## History The style was used by Gutenberg in the Gutenberg Bible, the first book printed in Europe. Few desktop publishing applications allow for automatic hanging punctuation. This often requires manual intervention by the designer or typographer, or the use of drawing software which supports this feature, or the use of sophisticated typesetting tools. PdfTeX, a variant of the TeX typesetting program, has microtypographic capabilities that allow for semi-automatic hanging punctuation. Arbortext APP (formerly 3B2), QuarkXPress, Adobe InDesign and Corel Ventura are desktop publishing applications which offer automatic support for hanging punctuation. The blogging platform Medium implemented hanging quotes in 2014. A proposal to add hanging punctuation property to CSS was added to the W3C Working Draft in 2018. It is supported in Safari 10+. ## Related concepts {#related_concepts} A related concept is optical margin alignment; letters such as *W* are set slightly into the margin to create an illusion of balance of white space

# Room 666 ***Room 666*** (*Chambre 666*) is a 1982 documentary film directed by German film director Wim Wenders. ## Contents During the 1982 Cannes Film Festival, Wenders set up a static camera in room 666 of the Hotel Martinez and provided selected film directors a list of questions to answer concerning the future of cinema. Each director is given one 16 mm reel (approximately 11 minutes) to answer the questions. The principal question asked was, \"Is cinema a language about to get lost, an art about to die?\" Wenders then edited this footage and added an introduction. The directors interviewed include Steven Spielberg, Jean-Luc Godard, and Rainer Werner Fassbinder, who died less than a month after filming. The film was later screened out of competition at the 2006 Cannes Film Festival

# Film Academy Baden-Württemberg The **Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg** (German: *Filmakademie Baden-Württemberg*) was founded in 1991 as a publicly funded film school in Ludwigsburg, Baden-Württemberg, Germany. The Filmakademie is one of the most internationally renowned film schools. One of its major distinguishing characteristics is the close collaboration with three other educational institutions on one campus: the Filmakademie\'s acclaimed Animationsinstitut (Institute of Animation and Visual Effects); the Atelier Ludwigsburg-Paris, an inter-university master-class on European film production and distribution hosted at the Filmakademie and in cooperation with notable French film school La Fémis in Paris and the National Film and Television School in London; and the neighbouring Academy of Performing Arts. The Filmakademie\'s international focus is another important aspect of its work. Renowned lecturers from all over the world regularly teach in Ludwigsburg, and exchange programmes with prestigious partner universities in Europe, North and South America, Africa, and Asia give students insights into foreign film worlds. Every year, the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg organizes a \"Hollywood Workshop" for selected students at the UCLA in Los Angeles as well as a binational short film project in collaboration with students from La Fémis. Incoming students from foreign universities will take part in a course called International Class that offers English-language teaching modules. ## Studies The project-oriented curriculum triggers learning by doing all the different stages of a film, television or interactive media production. More than 300 highly qualified experts from the film and media business instruct the students and take care of their projects. About 250 films of all genres and formats with top rankings on international festivals are produced every year by teams of students enrolled in advertising film, animation, cinematography, documentary film, editing, film and series production, film music, film sound, fiction film, interactive media, motion design, production design, screenwriting, and TV journalism. The Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg only admits students who have at least one of year of practical experience in the film and media business. In addition to the full-fledged study courses, the Filmakademie also offers an International Screen Acting Workshop for aspiring young actresses and actors. ## Rankings In 2003, the Art Directors Club awarded the Filmakademie the title of *Germany\'s most creative university*. In 2006, issue 22 of FOCUS, the Filmakademie was ranked as the *best film school in Germany*. Evaluation criteria were the reputation of the university, the support for the students, the technical equipment and the number of awards won. The animation institute at the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg was listed as second in the 3D World ranking in 2007, a global \"Ivy League\" table of the world\'s top animation schools. In 2010 the prestigious magazine The Hollywood Reporter listed the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg as the only German institution on its ranking of the world\'s best film schools. In 2015, 2016 and 2017 the Filmakademie was again listed as one of the \"15 best film schools in the world\". In 2017, the international awards and mentoring platform The Rookies named the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg and its Animationsinstitut the world\'s *Best Visual Effects School* and ranked it as No. 2 in the categorie *Best Animation School*. ## Awards Five times, films made at the Filmakademie Baden-Wuerttemberg won a Student Academy Award (Oscar): *Rochade* (1998, directed by Thorsten M. Schmidt), *NimmerMeer* (*Nevermore*, 2007, directed by Toke C. Hebbeln), *Von Hunden und Pferden* (*Of Dogs and Horses*, 2012, directed by Thomas Stuber), *Erledigung einer Sache* (*The Last Will*, 2015, directed by Dustin Loose), and *Galamsey* (2017, directed by Johannes Preuss). Other international awards include a Golden Leopard awarded to *Das Verlangen* (*The Longing*, directed by Iain Dilthey) at the Locarno International Film Festival 2002, and an Oscar nomination for *Das Rad* (*Rocks*, directed by Chris Stenner, Heidi Wittlinger and Arvid Uibel) in the category \"Best Animated Short Film\" (2003)

# Blotted Science **Blotted Science** is an instrumental progressive metal supergroup headed by Ron Jarzombek (Watchtower, Spastic Ink), bassist Alex Webster (Cannibal Corpse) and drummer Hannes Grossmann (ex-Obscura, ex-Necrophagist). They formed under the name **Machinations of Dementia**, but later changed their name to Blotted Science (*Machinations of Dementia* would be the title of their first publicly purchasable album). ## History In 2005 Ron Jarzombek contacted drummer Chris Adler (ex-Lamb of God) and bassist Alex Webster (Cannibal Corpse) about a possible collaboration, with the goal of taking Jarzombek\'s signature left-of-center progressive metal approach into a much heavier, more extreme realm. Although the addition of a vocalist was briefly considered, the trio ultimately decided to remain an all-instrumental band. However, Adler had to bow out due to his demanding schedule with Lamb of God but would collaborate with Jarzombek on the song \'The Near Dominance of 4 Against 5\' which appeared on Magna Carta Records\'s \'Drum Nation Vol. 3\' compilation in 2006. Adler\'s replacement was Derek Roddy (Hate Eternal, Nile) and, at the suggestion of Webster, the band took on the name Machinations of Dementia. Roddy left the group in August 2006. Shortly thereafter, Jarzombek was introduced to Charlie Zeleny, who would provide the missing drum tracks in a matter of weeks. The band, now known as Blotted Science, released their debut album, *The Machinations of Dementia*, in the fall of 2007 on Jarzombek\'s EclecticElectric label. The album was also licensed to Marquee/Avalon for the territory of Japan where it was released on June 22, 2011. In September 2010, Ron Jarzombek announced plans for a new Blotted Science EP consisting of seven songs totaling 24 minutes of music, with a tentative release date of early 2011. He also confirmed that the band would be utilizing the services of German drummer Hannes Grossmann in place of Charlie Zeleny on the recording. Grossmann and Jarzombek also collaborated in the one-off project Terrestrial Exiled whose digital only single \'Duodecimal Levorotation\' was released in May 2011. In late July 2011, a two-minute video teaser was posted on the band\'s YouTube channel and an October 4, 2011 release date announced for the EP, titled *The Animation of Entomology*. The band signed a license deal with UK-based Basick Records for the territory of Europe where the EP was released on November 28, 2011. In late April 2013, it was announced that both Blotted Science titles were scheduled for limited edition release on vinyl via Florida-based Antithetic Records with a street date of May 21, 2013. ## Members ### Current members {#current_members} - Ron Jarzombek - guitars (2005--present) - Alex Webster - bass (2005--present) - Hannes Grossmann - drums (2011--present) ### Former members {#former_members} - Chris Adler - drums (2005-2006) - Derek Roddy - drums (2006) - Charlie Zeleny - drums (2006-2011) **Timeline** {{#tag:timeline\| ImageSize = width:1000 height:auto barincrement:20 PlotArea = left:85 bottom:60 top:5 right:10 DateFormat = mm/dd/yyyy Alignbars = justify Period = from:02/01/2005 till:{{#time:m/d/Y}} ScaleMajor = increment:2 start:2006 ScaleMinor = increment:1 start:2006 TimeAxis = orientation:horizontal format:yyyy Legend = orientation:horizontal position:bottom Colors = `id:Guitar value:green legend:Guitar`\ `id:Bass value:blue legend:Bass`\ `id:Drums value:orange legend:Drums`\ `id:album value:black legend:Studio_album`\ `id:other value:gray(0.6) legend:EP`\ LineData= `layer:back`\ `at:09/18/2007 color:album`\ `at:11/28/2011 color:other` BarData = `bar:RJ text:Ron Jarzombek`\ `bar:AW text:Alex Webster`\ `bar:CA text:Chris Adler`\ `bar:DR text:Derek Roddy`\ `bar:CZ text:Charlie Zeleny`\ `bar:HG text:Hannes Grossmann` PlotData= `width:11 textcolor:black align:left anchor:from shift:(10

# Teymuraz Bagration **Prince Teymuraz Bagration of Mukhrani** (21 August 1912 -- 10 April 1992) was a Georgian-Russian nobleman and an émigré in the United States where he served as President of the Tolstoy Foundation, a New York-based charitable organization. ## Life He was born at Pavlovsk, Imperial Russia, into a formerly sovereign family. His father, Prince Konstantin Bagration-Mukhransky (1889--1915), a member of the Mukhrani branch of the Bagration family, formerly a royal dynasty of Georgia, was an Imperial Russian Army officer and was killed in World War I. Teymuraz\'s mother, Princess Tatiana Constantinovna of Russia (1890--1979) was a member of the imperial Romanov dynasty of Russia. Through her, he was second cousin of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh and Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent. Teymuraz Bagration left Russia after the 1917 Revolution, first living in Switzerland and then settling in Yugoslavia. Prince Bagration graduated in 1932 from the Krymskiy Cadet School and then studied at the Yugoslav Military Academy. He served for ten years in the Guards Mounted Artillery Regiment of the Royal Yugoslav Army. During World War II, he served in the Royal Yugoslav Army. After the war, he emigrated to the U.S. and was invited to join the Tolstoy Foundation in 1949. He became Executive Director of the Foundation in 1979 and led the organization from 1986 until his death in New York in 1992. On 5 July 2007, Bagration\'s unique archive was presented by his second wife, Princess Irina, to the National Parliamentary Library of Georgia. ## Personal life {#personal_life} Bagration was married twice. The first time he was married in Belgrade to Katarina Račić (4 Jul 1919, London - 20 December 1946), grand-daughter of Serbian Prime minister Nikola Pašić on 27 October 1940. At the time of the wedding he was 28 and she was 21, but the marriage ended with Katarina\'s death at the age of 27. The second marriage was with Countess Irina Czernysheva-Besobrasova (born 26 September 1926, Neuilly-sur-Seine - 9 July 2015, New York City), the daughter of Count Sergei Aleksandrovich Czernyshev-Besobrasov and Countess Elizaveta Sheremeteva. Irina was an older sister of Countess Xenia Czernyshev-Besobrasov, who married 1953 Archduke Rudolf Syringus, youngest son of Karl I of Austria, the last Austrian Emperor. This marriage was celebrated on 27 November 1949 and took place in New York City. He was 37 and she was 23. There was no issue of either marriage

(John Wishon) | website = {{URL|http://www.12403wc.com}} }}`{=mediawiki} **WWWC** (1240 AM), also known as **3WC**, is a 24-hour Southern gospel radio station located in Wilkesboro, North Carolina, United States, serving Wilkes County. The station which is owned by Foothills Media, Inc., broadcasts with a power of 1 kilowatt at 1240 kHz on the AM band, as well as over the internet. ## History On November 20, 1968, Paul Cashion and J.B. Wilson, doing business as Wilkes County Radio, obtained a construction permit for a new 100-watt radio station in Wilkesboro. WWWC signed on January 26, 1970, with a country music format. `{{r|bcyb71}}`{=mediawiki} Later that year, the station increased its power to 500 watts during the day and 250 watts at night. Shortly after, the station shifted towards a Top 40 format, which remained for most of the next 30 years. In 1983, Tomlinson Broadcasting acquired WWWC for \$410,000. However, the company filed for bankruptcy reorganization in 1991, owing most of its debt to the original owners, Cashion and Wilson. The station went off the air on November 12, 1992, and returned on December 4 with Cashion and Wilson once again at the helm. This revival was short-lived, as Cashion suffered a stroke and decided to withdraw, leading to the station\'s closure again on January 7, 1993. WWWC remained off the air until the station was purchased by Ken Byrd, Alan Combs, and John Wishon and adopted its Southern gospel format on July 11, 1994. 3WC is currently owned by John Wishon, who bought out the station from co-owner Alan Combs in 2006 for \$200,000. ## Translators In addition to the main station, WWWC is relayed by translators to widen its broadcast area. Cumberland Communities Communications Corporation, owner of WDVX, sold the Wilkesboro frequency to Foothills Media Inc. for \$20,000. In July 2019, a second transmitter was put in place near Elkin, adding an FM signal to the northeast of Wilkesboro

# Neurosonic **Neurosonic** was founded in Vancouver, British Columbia in February, 2006 by vocalist/guitarist Jason Darr, who was the former lead singer of Calgary\'s Out of Your Mouth. In addition to Jason, Neurosonic also consists of guitarist Troy Healy, accompanying vocalist and bassist Jacen Ekstrom and Tama endorsed drummer Shane Smith from former bands SNFU, The Real Mckenzies and David Ogilvy\'s (Mixer/Producer of Nine Inch Nails, Marilyn Manson, and Mötley Crüe), Jakalope. Neurosonic released its first album, Drama Queen on January 30, 2007 on the Bodog Music label, although the album was released in September, 2006 in Canada. The Multi-Platform game, Scarface: The World Is Yours also features their song, \'So Many People\'. On April 28, 2007, Jason posted on Neurosonic\'s MySpace that they would be playing on the main stage at the 2007 Family Values Tour. According to the Neurosonic biography on Bodog Music\'s site, Neurosonic is as \"driven and unapologetic as its creator (Darr).\" Neurosonic\'s musical style crosses many boundaries and while it is generally classified as alternative rock, it is also classified as hard rock, also containing elements of traditional rock and pop. ## Terrorist incident {#terrorist_incident} In September, 2006, Neurosonic was suspected by the United States\' FBI as being terrorists when Jason\'s pedal board, which consisted of the board and wires in a hard case, was examined and subsequently seized by the TSA. Jason had taped Neurosonic\'s set list to the board, which consisted of most of the songs on Drama Queen. Some of the song names (i.e. So Many People, Until I Die, Crazy Sheila, etc.) were mistaken by the FBI as being terrorist code, although Jason was able to explain the situation and the board was eventually returned. ## Major tours {#major_tours} In the late summer of 2007, Neurosonic guested at Korn\'s Family Values Tour along with Flyleaf, Trivium, Hellyeah, Atreyu, Evanescence, Droid, The Changing, and many more bands on the second stage such as Twin Method, Five Finger Death Punch, and Bloodsimple. Neurosonic also toured with Puddle Of Mudd in 2008. ## Feuds Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy was rumored to have been in a feud with Neurosonic over the song \"So Many People\", which publicly bashes Wentz\'s ex-wife Ashlee Simpson. Reporting of the matter stemmed from Jason Darr jokingly saying that Fall Out Boy\'s bass player had filed a cease & desist order. Wentz responded with: \"If your songs are good then sleep easy and have fun playing them - just don\'t attach me to them.\" while lead singer Jason Darr has spoken out, saying \"Anyone silly enough to believe I was serious about the comment has no sense of humour. The song is tongue in cheek\... meant to blow off steam about a subject that is laughable at best.\" ## Disbandment On April 1, 2009 lead vocalist Jason Darr announced via the band\'s Myspace page that Neurosonic was officially over. Jason went on to say the band had been coming to that conclusion for a bit as several of the members married, one is soon expecting his first child, and all of them had been focused on other projects. ## New beginning {#new_beginning} The band, minus Jason Darr, has reformed into the new band Crashscene. Their debut album released March 13, 2012

# Colorado Catholic Academy **Colorado Catholic Academy** was a private Catholic grammar school and high school in Wheat Ridge, Colorado. It was independently owned and operated with the approval of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Denver. Unlike most Catholic schools in the area, it was not formed by the Archdiocese of Denver and was not under the supervision of the Archdiocese\'s Office of Catholic Schools. ## Background CCA was established in 1974 and was accredited by the National Association of Private Catholic and Independent Schools (NAPCIS). The school\'s founder, Mary Ann Cristofano, was its first principal. In 1976, three of its 11 teachers were unpaid volunteers, and the school did not provide organized sports until 1977. CCA closed due to financial constraints after the conclusion of the 2006--2007 school year

# John James Davis **John James Davis** (May 5, 1835 -- March 19, 1916) was an American attorney and politician who helped found West Virginia and later served as a United States representative in Congress from that state. ## Early and family life {#early_and_family_life} John James Davis was born in Clarksburg, Virginia (now West Virginia) in 1835 to master saddler John Davis and his New York-born wife Eliza Arnold Steen Davis. He had a younger brother, Rezin Caleb Davis (who initially apprenticed with their father, but was a Confederate soldier and later became a lawyer in Kentucky). The family included at least two sisters. Their grandfather Caleb Davis had been born across the Potomac River at Oldtown, Allegheny County, Maryland but had moved to Woodstock, Shenandoah County, Virginia where J.J. Davis\'s father John Davis had been born. After learning his trade, John Davis moved to Clarksburg shortly before Virginia authorized construction of the Northwestern Turnpike. John Davis served as the Harrison County sheriff, ruling elder in his Presbyterian church and (unlike his son John James Davis) sympathized with the Confederacy and died in 1863. His wife Eliza (J.J. Davis\'s mother) was a pioneer school teacher in Harrison County, who taught Stonewall Jackson as well as her sons and many other local children. Either the father John Davis or J.J. Davis owned six slaves in Harrison County in 1860, and his brother Rezin Davis owned two slaves---a 17-year-old girl and a one-year-old boy. Young J.J. Davis attended Northwestern Virginia Academy at Clarksburg (the Harrison County seat). When he was 17, he moved to Lexington, Virginia to attend the Lexington Law School (now the law department of Washington and Lee University). Graduating in 1856, J.J. Davis was admitted to the Virginia bar that same year and began what would become his lifelong legal practice in Clarksburg. On August 21, 1862, John J. Davis married Anna Kennedy in Baltimore, Maryland, her home city. She was the daughter of a lumber merchant and college-educated. They later had a son, John William Davis (1873--1955), who followed his father\'s career and became a lawyer and congressman, although he eventually left West Virginia and was the unsuccessful Democratic presidential nominee in 1924. They also had four daughters: Lillie Davis Preston (1863--1939) of Lewisburg, West Virginia; Emma Kennedy Davis (1865--1943) who never married and was secretary of the local Red Cross in World War I as well as assistant chair of the Harrison County Democratic Committee; Anna Holmes Davis Richardson (1869-1945, whose first husband was a Unitarian minister in New York), and Catherine Estelle Davis (1874--1881). ## American Civil War {#american_civil_war} Davis became politically active after the Virginia Secession Convention on April 17, 1861 voted to approve an ordinance of secession over the opposition of many delegates from the northwestern counties, including fellow lawyer John S. Carlile from Harrison County. Carlile called a mass meeting in Clarksburg on April 22 to call Virginia\'s secession treasonous and consider responses. Davis attended that \"Clarksburg Convention.\" On May 13--15, J.J. Davis was among seven Harrison County men attending the Wheeling Convention, which established the Restored Government of Virginia. In June 1861, Harrison County voters elected Davis and John C. Vance to represent them in the Virginia House of Delegates, which met in Wheeling from July 1--26; Davis never served in Richmond, Virginia (the normal meeting place of the Virginia General Assembly, including during the American Civil War). In October, Harrison County voters again elected Vance and Davis as their two delegates to the General Assembly, which met at Wheeling from December 2, 1861 -- February 13, 1862, May 6--15, 1862, and December 4, 1862-February 5, 1863 (although Vance resigned on January 2, 1862). Despite Davis\'s Unionist advocacy, his father remained a Confederate sympathizer and his brother Rezin enlisted in the Confederate army. ## Postwar career {#postwar_career} As the war ended, Davis continued his legal practice in Clarksburg, and voters elected him to the West Virginia House of Delegates in 1869. He served one term, in 1870, in that part-time position. Active in his local Democratic Party, Davis was a delegate to the Democratic National Conventions in 1868, 1876 and 1892. He also was a Mason, a regent of the University of West Virginia, a member of the Board of Visitors of the United States Military Academy at West Point, director of the State Insane Hospital, and a ruling elder in the Southern Presbyterian Church.

# John James Davis ## National politics {#national_politics} When Republican Isaac H. Duval announced that he would not seek re-election from West Virginia\'s 1st congressional district in 1870, Davis was the Democratic nominee and won. He served in the 42nd Congress, and was re-elected as an Independent Democrat to the 43rd Congress. He decided against running for re-nomination in 1874, and fellow Democrat Benjamin Wilson won the seat. His elective political years over, except for stints at the Democratic National Conventions and as a presidential elector for Grover Cleveland, Davis resumed his legal practice in Clarksburg, which came in second in the 1877 contest to become West Virginia\'s state capital. However, the Republican Party grew stronger in the area, led by Nathan Goff, Jr., who replaced Wilson after the 1882 election. Eventually, Davis practiced with his son, John W. Davis, who began his personal political career by winning election to the West Virginia House of Delegates in 1899. Although the U.S. congressional seat was generally held by Republicans (other than twice briefly held by Democrat John O. Pendleton), Davis lived to see his son win it in 1910, then resign to become U.S. Solicitor General under Democratic President Woodrow Wilson. ## Death and legacy {#death_and_legacy} John J. Davis died in Clarksburg on March 19, 1916, and was interred in the Odd Fellows Cemetery, where his wife of nearly 55 years joined him less than a year later. Their daughter Emma, who never married, remained active in Democratic politics in Clarksburg. After serving as Solicitor General, his son John W. Davis would become U.S. Ambassador to Britain, then move to New York

# George Fowler Jones **George Fowler Jones** (25 January 1818 -- 1 March 1905) was an architect and early amateur photographer who was born in Scotland but based for most of his working life in York. ## Biography and work {#biography_and_work} Jones was born in Inverness in 1818. He studied under architect William Wilkins, the designer of Yorkshire Museum and the National Gallery, assisting him with the plates for his work on Vitruvius; then in around 1839 in London under Sir Sydney Smirke. When Smirke undertook repairs to the fire-damaged York Minster in the early 1840s, including revolutionary iron roof trusses, he sent Jones to take measurements. Jones liked York enough to move there shortly after. A few years later Jones designed similar iron roof trusses for one of his early commissions, Castle Oliver in Ireland. Jones was elected Fellow of the Royal Institute of British Architects (FRIBA) on 17 February 1868, proposed by Decimus Burton, Sydney Smirke and Ewan Christian. He married firstly Anne, in 1848, the 3rd daughter of Dr William Matterson of Minster Yard, York, (Lord Mayor). She died \'of congestion of the lungs\' on 29 January 1855 aged 35 at home, Bootham. Then Catherine, in 1857, 4th daughter of Henry Pigeon Esq. of Clapham Common and Southwark. Jones fathered 11 children who survived into their majority. With his 1st wife: Gascoigne Hastings 1850--1911; Fowler Lloyd 1851--1929, settled in Hastings, UK; Augusta 1853--1935; Annie Eliza Elena 1855--1925. With his 2nd wife: Fanny Katherine 1858--1936; Constance 1860--1930; Harry Mckenzie 1861--1948 (moved to Valparaiso, Chile, descendants now in Santiago; Montague 1864--1935; Robert Colquhoun 1865--1952; Edith 1867--1946; Lucy 1870--1914. Further information welcome, follow Castle Oliver link (see below) and use the Contact form. His earliest known commission, in 1843 at the age of 25, was the Gascoigne Almshouses, in Aberford, near Leeds, Yorkshire for the sisters Elizabeth & Mary Isabella Oliver Gascoigne. The building stood near the Gascoignes\' family seat, Parlington Hall. Jones was also responsible for projects at Parlington Hall, including a conservatory and a boat house. He undertook commissions for the sisters throughout his life. In 1843 when he began the Aberford Almshouses, Jones lived at 80 Baker Street, London. In 1844 while designing Castle Oliver he lived at 51 or 52 Monkgate, near Monk Bridge, York. In 1846 he started a practice at 8 Lendal, York. Plans and elevations of 3 Counties Asylum, dated 15 September 1856 give Jones\' address as 4 New Street, York. The Yorkshire Gazette of 15 February 1862 records that Jones moved from New Sreet to 84 Bootham. Pevsner records that in 1862, Jones designed and built 78 Bootham, York, as his own residence and Jones\' RIBA incorporation certificate of 1868 gives this as his address. Presumably therefore 78 Bootham became Jones\' offices; Works at 3 Counties Asylum dated 8 July and September 1870 also give 84 Bootham. Plans for 3 Counties Asylum dated 3 May 1877 and 9 March 1878 give his address as 3 Stonegate, York. Further works at 3 Counties dated February 1880 give his address as 100 Micklegate, next to \'The Pack Horse\' and he still held the property in 1886. However, since by this time Jones had in all probability retired to Malton, the address is probably that of his practice, then run by his son. In addition to his architectural activities, Jones was a photographer in the very earliest days of the medium. He became a pupil to William Fox Talbot, inventor of the negative/positive process. Some of Jones\' photographs of his own buildings and of York city, the earliest dating back to 1851, are to be found in the City of York Libraries and Archives; others at the City Reference Library, Leeds. A vast body of his photographic work, dating from the very earliest days of photography, now resides at the National Media Museum, Bradford. 2,100 negatives, along with some prints, have been catalogued in a 340-page index. Scenes include some of his earliest commissions, at Castle Oliver, Parlington Hall, Garforth Church and Aberford Almshouses. The collection spans Jones\' entire career and includes images shot in Scotland, Ireland, Corsica, Belgium, Norway, Sweden and New Zealand. Within the collection are several large negatives which Jones\' records as being Fox Talbot\'s work, although this has been disputed by Larry Schaaf, author and expert on Fox Talbot. Jones was also a proficient watercolorist, exhibiting at the Fine Art Exhibitions of 1880 (St Mary\'s Abbey) and 1885 (two views of Norway & the Church of St John, Exmouth), probably other years also. An auction in 1923 at Castle Oliver, in Ireland included *2 Views of Corsica by G.Fowler Jones* and his son bequeathed another, *Ajaccio Bay*, Corsica. Jones contributed to *Productions of the Leeds Photographic Society* (1852), a book of photography by York residents. He died at home, Quarry Bank, Malton, North Yorkshire. Obituaries in *The Builder* Journal and \'RIBA\' Journal, are both dated 11 March 1905. An obituary appeared in the *Yorkshire Herald* on 3 March 1905 and in *The Yorkshire Gazette* of 4 March 1905. This latter says *-on Wednesday, after a short illness, at the age of 85 years. He had lived at Malton for many years, but worked in York*.

# George Fowler Jones ## Apprentices and assistants {#apprentices_and_assistants} - Edward Taylor, later \'Architect, of 7 Stonegate, York\', served his articles with Jones (Jones\' obituary Yorks Herald 3 March 1905). Designed York Art Gallery [1](https://web.archive.org/web/20070629010659/http://www.loop.ph/bin/view/Openloop/YorkArtGalleryHistoricalResearch) - Mr Tomlinson - John Ward Knowles (about 1845) \'As a youth worked 3--4 months for Jones at Monkgate, but disliked the work and returned to painting and glass staining\'. - Peter Kerr, Assistant (1843--1845), who later worked on additions to Dunrobin Castle, Sutherland and was in the office of Sir Charles Barry before emigrating to Australia in 1852 - James Rawson Carroll, Apprentice then Assistant (before 1845--1855). His brother Thomas built the stonework of Castle Oliver, Fowler Jones\'s largest private residential commission. - John Russell Mackenzie, Assistant (before 1850). - Horatio Kelson Bromhead, Assistant (c.1858--1859). - William Bellerby of Clifton, near York. On leaving school was articled as a pupil to Jones, dates unknown but presumably commencing around1868. Completed training, but never practised, choosing to return to the family building co. In 1870 and 1877 Bellerby\'s family firm carried out work to Jones\' designs: *(see below, Fairfield Hospital)*. - William Gilmour Wilson, Assistant (after 1877) - Gascoigne Hastings Fowler Jones, Jones\' eldest child, born 1850, named in honour of his father\'s early patrons, also became an architect. Gascoigne was apprenticed to his father\'s practice between 1867 and 1872, becoming Assistant Architect to his father from 1872 to 1876. In 1892--4 he repaired and restored St Mary\'s Church, Kippax, a Grade I Listed Building. [2](http://www.stmarykippax.org.uk/history.htm) `{{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080828052534/http://www.stmarykippax.org.uk/history.htm |date=28 August 2008 }}`{=mediawiki} During and after work at Kippax he arbitrated in a dispute between the contractor, Mr Keswick of Micklegate, York and the Rev\'d. Hoste. Mr Keswick had submitted a very low tender, failing to foresee essential works. Gascoigne was sympathetic to the builder, who was elderly and in very poor health, drawing up a Statement of Cost to convince Hoste of Keswick\'s argument. This statement survives among the Parish Papers, West Yorkshire Archive Service. He is known to have designed Chestnut House, The Mount. Gascoigne took over almost all Jones\' practice\'s works at Clifton Hospital in about 1889 (see below). The Dictionary of Scottish Architects suggests that he eventually operated his own practice, from 8 Lendal, York, the property where his father first practised. Gascoigne also had political aspirations: in 1901 he was \'Re-elected unopposed Conservative Councillor to Micklegate Ward\' (Yorks Gazette 26 October 1901); again \'Re-elected unopposed\' (Yorks Gazette 30 January 1904 and at least a 3rd time (Yorks Gazette 5/11/1910). He died aged 61 on 16 April 1911, (obituary Yorks Gazette 22 April 1911). He \'bequeathed pictures\', including works by himself and his father, as well as a watercolour of Jones\' first father-in-law, Lord Mayor Dr Matterson, to York Corporation (Yorks Gazette 29 July 1911). In 1878 he published 50 lithographs *Sketches in York*, at a cost of 3 sh/6d (York Central Library ref 942.843). The book\'s cover gives his address as 3 Stonegate, York. One account in The Yorks Gazette mentions that Jones was assisted in his practice \'by both sons\' and that following Gascoigne Jones\' death \'his younger brother carried on the practice, taking on as partner a Mr Munby, but the firm ceased after probably a year or two\'. It is not known which son this refers to.

The foundation stone was laid on 22 July 1844; Consecrated 14 November 1845. - Nairn, Nairnshire, Scotland: St Ninian\'s Church (1844). In 1901--3, the church was demolished and re-erected in Lochinver, Sutherland; it is now known as Lochinver Parish Church. - Kilravock Castle, near Nairn, Morayshire, Scotland: east lodge (1844--45) - Castle Grant, near Grantown-on-Spey, Morayshire, Scotland: west lodge (1845) - Sherburn-in-Elmet, now South Milford: Church of St Mary [4](http://www.southmilford.co.uk/St_Marys_Church.htm) (1845-Consecrated 26 November 1846) also commissioned by the Oliver Gascoigne sisters at a cost of £1,500. It was built of Huddleston limestone by Benjamin Bulmer of Thorpe Arch. The Gascoigne sisters also made stained glass windows for this church. Jones\' designs for St Mary\'s were exhibited at the Royal Academy, London. ```{=html}  ``` - Castle Oliver aka Clonodfoy/Clonghanodfoy Castle, Co.Limerick, Ireland (1845--52) Scottish Baronial; also commissioned by the Oliver Gascoigne sisters, it is a 110-room private residence with two matching gate lodges built of pink sandstone quarried locally. It featured Minton encaustic tiles and stained glass, as well as decorative ceilings, all designed by the sisters. The stonework was built by Thos. H Carroll of Dublin; Messrs. Henry & Thos. Creaser, of York, were the contractors for the interior finishings; Johnston Silley & Co, Decorator, Dublin, executed the decorative paintwork (still being completed in 1857) and Mr John Walker, of Walker Iron Foundry, York, supplied all the ironwork of the roof, etc. Monograms of Carroll and Creaser, the two main contractors, feature in a decorative terracotta panel set high in the gable overlooking the courtyard. See examples of this and other features: [5](http://www.castle-oliver.com/Pages/Pics/Original-features.html) Jones designed large stone gryphons, eleven of which sat on the balustrade surrounding the castle. These were probably carved from Portland Stone and disintegrated in the wet Irish climate in the early 20th century. Facsimiles have been created from photographic evidence and a limited edition made available [6](http://www.triton.uk.com/index.php/showcase/commission-for-castle-oliver-in-ireland/). Small scale plans signed by Jones and dated 24 June 1845 are in the Manuscripts Room at Dublin Library. The castle is remarkable for its simple, but immensely effective and durable cast & wrought iron roof trusses, which were made in numbered component form in York and assembled on site. These trusses are believed to have been relatively \'cutting edge\' at the time, although it appears that Walker Iron Foundry made similar ones in 1843 to restore the nave roof of York Minster.

# Condosity **Condosity** is a comparative measurement of electrical conductivity of a solution. The condosity of any given solution is defined as the molar concentration of a sodium chloride (NaCl) solution that has the same specific electrical conductance as the solution under test. By way of example, for a 2 Molar potassium chloride (KCl) solution, the condosity would be expected to be somewhat greater than 2.0. This is because potassium is a better conductor than sodium. ## Applications The measurement is sometimes used in biological systems to provide an assessment of the properties of bodily or cellular liquids, or the properties of solutes in the physical environment. When measuring the properties of bodily fluids such as urine, condosity is expressed in units of millimoles per litre (mM/L)

# Tetrad of media effects Marshall McLuhan\'s **tetrad of media effects** uses a tetrad - a four-part construct - to examine the effects on society of any technology/medium (that is, a means of explaining the social processes underlying the adoption of a technology/medium) by dividing its effects into four categories and displaying them simultaneously. The tetrad first appeared in print in articles by McLuhan in the journals *Technology and Culture* (1975) and *et cetera* (1977). It first appeared in book form in his posthumously-published works *Laws of Media* (1988) and *The Global Village* (1989). ## The tetrad {#the_tetrad} The tetrad consists of four questions. 1. What does the medium enhance? 2. What does the medium make obsolete? 3. What does the medium retrieve that had been obsolesced earlier? 4. What does the medium reverse or flip into when pushed to extremes? The laws of the tetrad exist simultaneously, not successively or chronologically, and allow the questioner to explore the \"grammar and syntax\" of the \"language\" of media. McLuhan departs from the media theory of Harold Innis in suggesting that a medium \"overheats\", or reverses into an opposing form, when taken to its extreme. Visually, a tetrad can be depicted as four diamonds forming an X, with the name of a medium in the center, where the left/right direction reflects the figure/ground association. The two diamonds on the left of a tetrad are the *Enhancement* and *Retrieval* qualities of the medium, both *Figure* qualities. The two diamonds on the right of a tetrad are the *Obsolescence* and *Reversal* qualities, both *Ground* qualities. - Enhancement (figure): What the medium amplifies or intensifies. *For example, radio amplifies news and music via sound.* - Obsolescence (ground): What the medium drives out of prominence. *Radio reduces the prominence of print and the visual.* - Retrieval (figure): What the medium recovers which was previously lost. *Radio returns the spoken word to the forefront.* - Reversal (ground): What the medium does when pushed to its limits. *Acoustic radio flips into audio-visual TV

# Faubourg Brewing Company **Faubourg Brewing Company** was a brewery founded in New Orleans, Louisiana, on October 31, 1907, and originally named **Dixie Brewing Company**. The brewing operation was located on Tulane Avenue until 2005 when it closed due to damage from Hurricane Katrina. After that the beer was contract brewed out of state until November 2019 when a new brewery opened in New Orleans. In 2021 the brewery was renamed the Faubourg Brewing Company. Following the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival in May 2024, the company announced its closure and that all equipment from their New Orleans plant would be auctioned off. ## History Faubourg Brewing Company was founded as Dixie Brewing by Valentine Merz, and began production in 1907. The original brick Dixie Brewery building at 2401 Tulane Avenue at the corner of Tulane Avenue and Tonti Street was designed by the German architect Louis Lehle and completed in 1907 with a wooden extension added in 1919. During Prohibition, the company became the \"Dixie Beverage Company.\" In 1983, Dixie was sold to a New Orleans--based corporation, Coy International. In November 1985, it was purchased by Joseph and Kendra Elliott Bruno and in 1989 its owners filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. After emerging reorganized in 1992, the brewery produced a new line of speciality beers, Blackened Voodoo (a dark lager), Crimson Voodoo (a red ale) and in 1993 introduced Jazz Amber Light. thumb \|upright \|Dixie beer In 2005, the Dixie Brewery was severely damaged when Mid-City New Orleans flooded from the levee failure disaster during Hurricane Katrina. After the area was drained the brewery complex was looted with much of the equipment stolen. Despite early post-Katrina claims that the brewery would be restored and efforts being made to encourage local government to support the return of the brewery, it was never able to reopen. With the closing of the original brewery, Dixie Beer's production was contract brewed at Joseph Huber Brewing Company in Monroe, Wisconsin. When the brewery didn\'t reopen on Tulane Avenue, the closed brewery building was incorporated into the footprint of the new Department of Veterans Affairs hospital built in New Orleans\' Mid-City neighborhood. During restoration, the focus was on stabilizing the structure. Liz Failla, project coordinator for the VA said, \"Right now, what we\'re doing is stabilizing the structure that we\'re going to maintain, which is that iconic tower with the Dixie Brewery on there.\" The design preserves and repairs the six- and four-story sections of the old brewery. Failla also said a modern brick and glass structure will rise from behind the historic facade. Tom Benson, owner of the New Orleans Saints and the New Orleans Pelicans, bought a majority stake in the Dixie brand in 2017 from Joe and Kendra Bruno, with plans of returning the brewing operation to New Orleans within two years. After Tom Benson\'s death on March 15, 2018, his wife Gayle Benson took control of the majority stake in the brewery. On August 7, 2018, it was announced a new Dixie Brewery would be built in Eastern New Orleans featuring a replica of the brick tower at Dixie\'s original brewery and metal letters that were removed from the exterior of the original brewery. The brewery and taproom were built in an 80,000-square-foot portion of an existing warehouse located on a 14-acre property. A private event space above the taproom has a bar made from a vintage fermenting tank also removed from the original brewery. A kitchen off the taproom offers bar snacks and food, while the area just past the on-site beer garden hosts food trucks. The property also includes a beer museum, a grassy meadow with a pond, walking paths, bocce ball courts, fire pits and an area for yard games. In June 2019, Dixie Beer\'s production was moved from Monroe, Wisconsin to the Blues City Brewery in Memphis, Tennessee before its return to New Orleans. On November 25, 2019, the Dixie Brewing Company began brewing at their new brewery in New Orleans, marking the first time Dixie was brewed in New Orleans since 2005. On January 25, 2020, the brewery had its official groundbreaking and the facility opened to the public. In November 2020 the company announced that it was changing its name from Dixie Brewing Company to Faubourg Brewing Company, with the beer to be branded as Faubourg beer. Faubourg -- pronounced \"FO-burg\" -- is a French word that New Orleaneans often use interchangeably with \"neighborhood\". According to *The Times-Picayune*, \"While the origins of the term Dixie as a nickname for the South reach far back into history, its affiliation with the Confederacy has made it divisive in modern discourse.\" In February 2021 the signage on the brewery was changed, with final preparations in place for new packaging for the beer. ## Popular culture {#popular_culture} The brewery and/or its beer have been featured notably in films including *Red*, *Southern Comfort*, *The Loveless*, *Steel Magnolias*, *Stone Cold*, *Tigerland* and *Tightrope*. It is briefly mentioned in the novels *A Confederacy of Dunces*, *American Psycho*, *Drawing Blood* and *True Blood*

Labour councillors Rhondda Geekie and Alex Hannah became Leader and Provost respectively, with the positions of Depute Leader and Depute Provost being filled by Conservative councillors Billy Hendry and Anne Jarvis. However, following the death of Alex Hannah in April 2009, LibDem councillor Eric Gotts was appointed as Provost. In December 2009, Lib Dem representation increased briefly to 4, following Ashay Ghai\'s win in the Bearsden South by-election caused by the resignation of the Conservatives\' Simon Hutchison. However, their numbers reverted to 3 in June 2011, when Lib Dem councillor Duncan Cumming resigned from the party citing issues relating to the Liberal Democrats\' role in the UK coalition government, sitting thereafter as an Independent.

# Ducana **Ducana** is a sweet potato dumpling or pudding from Antigua, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Jamaica and many other Caribbean islands. They are made from grated sweet potatoes, grated coconut, sugar, flour, coconut milk, and/or water, raisins, ginger, grated nutmeg, salt and essence or vanilla extract. The mixture is combined in a bowl until it thickly coats the back of a spoon. The cooking method is quite simple, but what is often debated is the wrapping. The mixture can be cooked wrapped in foil where others prefer to cook it wrapped in *coccoloba* leaves, banana leaves, or seaside grape leaves. Either way the wrapped contents must be boiled in salted water for about 25 minutes or until the mixture in the wrapping is firm. Ducana is often served with salt cod (bacala) and what the islanders call \"chop-up\" which is a mixture of spinach, eggplant and okra. Ducana is also eaten cold, or thinly sliced and fried lightly

# Somby **Somby** is a common Northern Sami surname. The name has most likely been made as a Norwegian language adapted variation based on the Sami town of Sombio (or Sompio) in the Kemi region of north Finland. The name has probably also risen from the personal male name like *Sompia, Sompi, Sombie, Sombe, Sombby, Sombi, Sumby* and *Sobbe*. The name has been used as a family name written as *Sombio, Sompio, Sombi* and *Somby*. Somby is the most common form today. It occurs basically in the northern Sami communities of Kautokeino Municipality and Karasjok Municipality on the Norwegian side of the border, but also in other northern-Scandinavian regions. The ancestor of the Somby family is *Oloff Persson Sombio*, registered in Kautokeino from 1697 to 1707. There is a concentration of Sumby in and around Sunderland in the UK, the earliest recorded Sumby being a resident of the Parish of Bishopwearmouth in the mid 19th century. Since then the name can be found scattered throughout the UK, North America and Australia

# Oliver Gascoigne The **Oliver Gascoigne** family originated at the point that Richard Oliver, originally of Castle Oliver, Limerick, Ireland, inherited the fortune of Sir Thomas Gascoigne of Parlington Hall, Yorkshire, in 1810. Sir Thomas made it a stipulation of his will that Richard add \'Gascoigne\' to his name. Richard had married Sir Thomas\'s stepdaughter, Mary Turner, in 1804. Richard and Mary had two daughters, Isabella and Elizabeth, who inherited their parents\' fortune in 1843. The sisters demolished their ancestral home in Ireland, and built a new Castle Oliver a few hundred yards to the north east. The castle still exists
