Complex oil bodies

Oil bodies of liverworts The oil bodies of liverworts, occasionally dubbed complex oil bodies for distinction, are unique organelles exclusive to the Marchantiophyta. They are markedly different from the oil bodies found in other land plants and algae in that they are membrane-bound, and not associated with food storage. The organelles are variable and present in an estimated 90% of liverwort species, often proving taxonomically relevant. As a whole, the formation and function of the organelles are poorly understood. Complex oil bodies are recognized as sites of isoprenoid biosynthesis and essential oil accumulation, and have been implicated with anti-herbivory, desiccation tolerance, and photo-protection. Structure and content. The oil bodies of liverworts are recognizable using light microscopy, and they were first officially described in 1834 by Huebener from the plant "Mylia" "taylorii". They were noted as transparent drops, with a shining, membranous texture. They are secretory organelles bound by a single membrane, containing lipophilic globules in a proteinaceous matrix of high refractive index. They are quite variable in size, number, shape, colour, and content between liverwort species. They may appear rounded, globular, homogenous, segmented, clear or tinted. The lipophilic globules within have been identified as the main site of lipids in liverwort cells, and have long been associated with liverwort's often prominent essential oils. A visually striking example of this association can be seen in the distinctly blue oil bodies of "Calypogeia azurea", found to be due to the localized accumulation of Azulene derivatives. Another early empirical argument for the association of essential oils and complex oil bodies was based upon the dark indophenol blue staining of "Radula complanata" oil bodies; Indophenol blue dissolves in essential oils and appears dark blue, but appear light pink in unsaturated lipids like those found in the cytoplasmic oil droplets of "R. complanata". This was later corroborated by chemical analyses which found the primary constituent of "R. complanata" oil bodies to be the aromatic 3-methoxy-biphenyl. The association between oil bodies and essential oils is not consistent; While "Blasia pusilla" lacks both oil bodies and terpenoids, "Anthelia julacea" lacks oil bodies but retains terpenoids and aromatic compounds. Although present in some species lacking complex oil bodies, the association with terpenoids is furthered by evidence based upon enzyme localization in "Marchantia polymorpha" indicating that oil bodies are sites of isoprenoid synthesis in liverworts. The localization of sesquiterpenes and Marchantin A to the oil body has since been confirmed in "Marchantia polymorpha" based upon the micromanipulation of oil cell contents using glass capillaries and piston syringes. Chemical analyses on hundreds of liverwort species have revealed highly diverse mixtures of aromatic and terpenoid compounds, likely associated with oil bodies. The essential oils of liverworts are largely composed of sesquiterpenes as well as diterpenes, and more than 3000 terpenoid and aromatic compounds have been reported from the group. Monoterpenes are also present, and have been associated with the sometimes distinctive odours of some species. For example: "Chiloscyphus" species have been noted to have a strong mossy smell, "Jungermannia", "Frullania", and "Geocalyx" species smell of turpentine, and "Lophozia vicernata" is likened to cedar oil, "Moerkia" species are intensely unpleasant, "Conocephalum" species are pungent and mushroomy, "Pellia endiviifolia" shares qualities with dried seaweed, and "Riella" species with anise. Interestingly, it has been observed that most sesqui- and diterpenoids in liverworts are enantiomers of those found in vascular plants, although there are numerous only found in liverworts. Pinguisane- and sacculatane-type diterpenes are exclusively found in liverworts, detected in the genera "Porella, Pellia, Pallavicini, Fossombronia" and "Trichocoleopsis". The secondary metabolites of liverworts offer an under-characterised diversity of potentially pharmaceutically relevant compounds. Liverwort terpenoids and lipophilic compounds have been observed to have significant biological activity, including cyto-toxicity, anti-obesity, anti-influenza, allergenic contact dermatitis, anti-HIV inhibitory, antimicrobial, and vasorelaxant effects. Compounds such as Marchantin and Riccardin as well as extracts from "Bazzania" and "Scapania" species have been shown to have pronounced antitumour effects. Indeed, liverworts have been used medicinally by humans for centuries. In China, liverworts have been used for a variety of ailments including cuts, burns and bruises, pulmonary tuberculosis, convulsions and neurasthenia. "Pellia neesiana" has been used in a traditional medicine by Hesquiat people for children's sore mouths, and "Conocephalum salebrosum" has been used as an eye medicine by the Ditidaht. Various liverworts have been incorporated by Maori in traditional medicine. Ontogeny. Although a synapomorphy for the phylum, the ontogeny of complex oil bodies across liverworts remains uncertain. Uncertainty arises as to the conservation of development between the Marchantiopsida and Jungermanniopsida. Working with light and electron microscopy, the oil bodies of various Jungermanniopsida species were observed to be derived from dilations of endoplasmic reticulum cisternae. In certain Marchantiopsida species, again based upon light and electron microscopy, oil bodies were hypothesized to result from the fusion of golgi-associated vesicles. When re-examined independently in "Marchantia polymorpha" and "Lunularia cruciata", this hypothesis was refuted in favour of that which unifies the development of all liverwort oil bodies from ER cisternae. Recent molecular work in "Marchantia polymorpha" has however once again supported the fusion of vesicles, and oscillating phases of secretory pathway redirection to the plasma membrane and oil body were hypothesized. Function. Numerous functions for the organelles have been hypothesized, including that the organelles may be largely vestigial. Although lost in numerous taxa, the predominant retention and diversity of the organelles suggests an adaptive role, and their importance is quite evident. Theory over the years has implicated complex oil bodies with virtually all evident stressors, such as herbivore and pathogen damage, thermal stress, excessive light/UV irradiation, and desiccation. Empirical evidence is often lacking, however many of these theories have been supported in one way or another. Worth noting is that the modern adaptive function of complex oil bodies may be diverse across the phylum and inconsistent between species. For example, it was found that oil bodies in "Southbya nigrella" likely served a role is desiccation-tolerance, however xeric "Riccia" species and highly exposed "Anthelia" have no oil bodies at all. In "Southbya nigrella", the mechanism was attributed to carbohydrates and other molecules whose osmoticum resists water loss, inferred to be contained in the oil bodies and noted due to the oil body collapse upon rehydration. A hypothesized ancestral function has been that of UV tolerance. It has been noted that liverworts produce a high amount of constitutive and inducible UV-absorbing compounds, much greater than mosses, however the localization of these compounds to complex oil bodies has not been confirmed. As liverworts are often considered the closest extant relative of one of the earliest groups of land plants, they would likely have been required to be adapted to the harsh conditions of a thinner ozone layer, thus the development of these UV-shielding compounds may reflect a key development in the evolution of land plants. Studies on herbivore grazing are few but supportive of the hypothesis that oil-bodies can function as herbivore-deterrents. Fossil evidence of herbivore damage on the middle Devonian liverwort "Metzgeriothallus sharonae" suggests an already deterrent role of the oil-bodies, whereby cells presumed to be oil-cells were preferentially avoided. In an early feeding experiment using various liverworts and several species of snail, it was noted that liverworts leached by alcohol were far more palatable, with fresh liverworts often being seldom touched. Recently, a mutant of "Marchantia polymorpha" lacking oil-bodies was studied for palatability to herbivores, and it was found that a loss of the organelles was associated with far greater grazing by pill-bugs. In general, herbivore grazing on extant liverworts seems to be quite low, and this is likely not due to an un-worthwhile caloric content but the secondary metabolites likely stored in the oil bodies of the plants. In vitro studies on the effects of various liverwort extracts have further demonstrated broad feeding-deterrence as well as insecticidal and nematicidal properties. Although noted that liverwort colonies are seldom damaged by fungal or bacterial pathogens, empirical evidence of oil-bodies protecting against invasion is lacking. Extracts from a range of liverwort taxa demonstrate pronounced and diverse antifungal and antibacterial properties. Fungal endophytes however are not uncommon among liverwort taxa, and the fungal invasion of liverworts in the family "Arnelliaceae" has been associated with a rapid breakdown of oil bodies. Taxonomic importance. Complex oil bodies are often the most conspicuous features of liverwort cells in light microscopy, and as variable as they are in number, shape, colour, and homogeneity, they have long been recognized as taxonomically relevant. Unfortunately, this is a character that requires observation in fresh material, as under unnaturally high rates of drying the complex oil bodies disintegrate. Worth noting is that under natural rates of desiccation the oil bodies seem to retain their original structure. Various classifications for oil body types have been proposed based upon their high variability, and they have been used extensively to distinguish between families, genera and species. Chemotaxonomics based on the putative oil-body contents has also proved valuable. Although some families such as "Blasiaceae, Metzgeriaceae, Cephaloziaceae, Lepidoziaceae, and Antheliaceae" lack complex oil bodies, they are broadly present in all mature gametophytic and sporophytic cells in the Jungermanniopsida and Haplomitriales, and restricted to specialized oil-cells sometimes denoted as ocelli in the Marchantiopsida and Treubiales. Phylogenetic evidence does not indicate an evident ancestral form of the complex oil bodies as the basal Haplomitriopsida lineages "Treubia" and "Haplomitrium" display two different types of oil bodies. Limited fossil evidence has suggested that Paleozoic liverwort oil bodies are homologous to the specialized oil-cells found in extant taxa, perhaps indicating the more ancestral type.

Joseph Lagrosillière

French politician (1872–1950) Joseph Lagrosillière (2 November 1872 - 6 January 1950) was a French lawyer and politician. He was mayor of Sainte-Marie from 1910 to 1936 and deputy of Martinique from 1910 to 1924 and from 1932 to 1942. He was also president of the General Council of Martinique from 1935 to 1937 and from 1945 to 1946. Lagrosillière was the founder of the socialist movement in Martinique and one of the most important political figures on the island during the first half of the 20th century. Biography. He went to France to study law at the colonial school of the Faculty of Law in Paris. While there he befriended Jules Guesde and became active in the West Indies socialist group in Paris from 1896. Lagrosillière was called to the bar in Paris and Tunis on 29 June 1898. He was admitted to the Fort-de-France bar on his return to the Martinique in 1901. The same year, he created the first Socialist Federation of Martinique. Then he founded the newspaper , of which he was also the editor-in-chief. Joseph Lagrosillière was a candidate for the legislative elections in the northern constituency in 1902, but because of the eruption of Mount Pelée on 8 May, the second round scheduled for 11 May did not take place. He lost a large part of his family in the disaster. Devastated, he moved to Saint Pierre and Miquelon for two years. He was elected deputy in the North in 1910 and re-elected in 1914. He was elected mayor of Sainte-Marie and remained the town's chief magistrate for 26 years. In 1913, considering himself insulted in a newspaper article, Lagrosillière challenged the procurer general of Martinique, Jules Liontel, to a duel. A court of honour found Liontel too old to accept, but his son insisted that he substitute for his father. The contest was held on 5 February; the younger Liontel lost to Lagrosillière. In a disagreement with the metropolitan socialist deputies on the issue of assimilation, he resigned from the socialist group in the Chamber of Deputies that July. A fierce supporter of assimilation, Lagrosillière, together with the Guadeloupean deputy Achille René-Boisneuf, presented a bill to reform the Constitution of Guadeloupe, Martinique and Réunion in 1914, which would have transformed the colonies into departments of France. In 1919, he made a political alliance with , leader of the progressive factory owners, at the " for the following legislative elections against his opponent Sévère, who was allied with the conservative Békés. He was elected as a deputy in the South for the next five years. The same year, he became president of the General Council, which he presided over until 1939. He was imprisoned after the municipal elections and the strike of 1925 for inciting unrest and violence. Joseph Lagrosillière was arrested in 1931 for " (a type of corruption) and imprisoned in Le Havre, France. Despite his legal troubles, he was re-elected as a deputy in the South of Martinique in 1932, during this term, he established the ""; Paulette Nardal was his parliamentary assistant and press officer. He remained deputy of Martinique until the outbreak of the Second World War in France. Joseph Lagrosillière fought his last political battle in the 1945 municipal elections in Fort-de-France, where he was beaten by more than 5000 votes by the young communist candidate, Aimé Césaire. Joseph Lagrosillière died on the 6th January 1950, at the age of 77.

Sabizabulin

Chemical compound <templatestyles src="Infobox drug/styles.css"/> Sabizabulin is an investigational new drug that is being evaluated for the treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer and in SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) infections. It is a tubulin polymerization inhibitor. Sabizabulin is chemical compound from the group of indole and imidazole derivatives that was first reported in 2012 by Dalton, Li, and Miller. Pharmacology. Pharmacokinetics. Sabizabulin is not a substrate of P-glycoprotein (Pgp), an efflux pump that, when overexpressed, can confer resistance to taxanes, a group of widely used cancer therapeutics. Mechanism of action. Sabizabulin, as an orally available molecule, acts on microtubules, a component of the cytoskeleton. It binds to the colchicine binding site on the beta subunit of tubulin, as well as a novel site on the alpha subunit, and causes both to crosslink, thus depolymerizing microtubules and preventing their polymerization. By preventing mitotic spindle formation, this directly inhibits mitosis of tumor cells and endothelial cells attempting to form new blood vessels to feed them. In parallel, microtubule-mediated trafficking of cellular components (including androgen receptors into the nucleus), thus, a potential anti-androgen agent. The transport of viral particles (including SARS-CoV-2) may also be inhibited. These activities can inhibit viral replication and assembly. Inhibition of tubulin polymerization can also inhibit the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and disrupt the activities of inflammatory cells. Research. COVID-19 therapy. In a phase III study on the treatment of severe courses of COVID-19, sabizabulin reduced mortality by 55% according to the manufacturer. Because of the high efficacy, the test phase was stopped prematurely so that the drug no longer had to be withheld from the placebo control group.

Dana Aliya Levinson

Actor, writer, trans advocate Dana Aliya Levinson (עברית: דנה עליה לוינסון), born in 1992, is a television writer, actress, and Jewish transgender advocate best known for her roles as Toni Rykener on the television series "American Gods", Sadie Lipton in "The Good Fight", and Hazel in the independent film "Adam" which had its world premiere at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival. Early life. Levinson was born in Great Neck, New York to father Lee Levinson, a dentist of Latvian and Lithuanian Ashkenazi Jewish descent and mother, Amy Levinson, a jewelry designer of German and French Ashkenazi, as well as Portuguese, Moroccan, and Turkish Sephardi descent. She has two brothers, Daniel Levinson, who is a published author, and Michael Levinson, who is a comedian and screenwriter. Levinson's maternal grandfather, Vic Cowen, was a comedy writer for Bob and Ray. Levinson has spoken extensively about how her Jewishness and upbringing in a majority Jewish town has deeply affected her creative perspective and voice as a writer. Levinson attended Great Neck South High School as well as The Village School. For undergraduate studies, she attended the New School. Professional life. Levinson studied music theory, composition, and piano, from a young age. While in undergrad, she began writing musical theater and corralling her fellow students into recording demos for her. Her first full-length musical as a composer and lyricist, "5th Republic", written with Stacey Weingarten, premiered at the New York Musical Festival (NYMF) in 2011 under the title "Les Enfants de Paris". A demo recording of select songs from the show sung by Farah Siraj, Santino Fontana, Derek Klena, Laura Osnes, Alexander Gemignani, Kareem Youssef, Mariana Saba, and also the late Bassam Saba on Oud and Ney, was released online in 2014. Her second musical, "MADAME", written with Stacey Weingarten and L Morgan Lee, was given a developmental reading at NYMF in 2012. Levinson was selected as a 2014-2015 Dramatists Guild Fellow alongside her writing partner, Stacey Weingarten. There, she continued to develop both shows under the mentorship of Michael Korie. "5th Republic" went on to have further development with the Musical Theater Factory, and Broadway au Carré in Paris, culminating in a concert version of the show at Comédie Nation featuring Lisandro Nesis, Maxime Guerville, Manon Taris, Kaïna Blada, Perle Solves, and Bastien Jacquemart as the show's leads. Levinson also received an honorable mention for the inaugural Billie Burke Ziegfeld Award, which recognizes female musical theater writers. Levinson wrote all of the musical arrangements, as well as collaborating with Stacey Weingarten on additional story, for the world premiere of LUDO's Broken Bride at NYMF, based on the band's concept album of the same name. The show had been previously developed as part of Ars Nova's ANTFest, as well as in a staged concert at The Cutting Room. After years of only writing, Levinson began acting in 2017 with her first professional lead role, Grace, in the world premiere of the play "Ballast" by Georgette Kelly at Diversionary Theater in San Diego. This was soon followed by her role as Hazel, a trans lesbian political activist and girlfriend of Casey (played by Margaret Qualley), in the film "Adam", directed by Rhys Ernst, and produced by Howard Gertler and James Schamus. Soon after, she landed the role of Toni Rykener, a trans woman demigoddess and protector of queer love, in the series "American Gods" on Starz. The episode garnered a Directors Guild of Canada Award for its director, Tim Southam. About the role, Levinson said:"There is something radical about a queer character being granted eternal life when the world does all it can to make sure we don't live on at all. To LGBTQ fans of American Gods, I love you and you too are sacred."Levinson also appeared alongside Rob Reiner, Audra McDonald, Lorraine Toussaint, and Delroy Lindo in "The Good Fight" as Sadie Lipton, a trans woman swimmer who is attempting to qualify for the Olympics as well as the short films "November 9", and "The Dress You Have On", which premiered at OutFest in 2018. Levinson's writing efforts have also refocused toward film and television, and she has worked in developmental writer's rooms, most recently for ViacomCBS. Personal life. Levinson is a non-binary trans femme person and uses she and they pronouns. Levinson is a big fan of the "Harry Potter" franchise. When its author, JK Rowling, posted a series of transphobic statements online, Levinson wrote an open letter to her which was published on "The Huffington Post". This letter landed Levinson on season 5, episode 16 of the podcast "Dan Fogler's 4D Experience", hosted by Dan Fogler who plays Jacob Kowalski in the "Fantastic Beasts" franchise. There, she discussed her experience with the "Harry Potter" series, as well as how Rowling's words were providing fodder for transphobic legislation that puts trans people's lives at risk.

Cynthia E. Dunbar

American hematologist Cynthia Dunbar is an American scientist and hematologist at the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI), which is part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). She is the Branch Chief of the Translational Stem Cell Biology Branch. She was the Editor-in-Chief of Blood, the flagship publication of the American Society of Hematology (ASH), from 2007 to 2012. She is currently Secretary of ASH. In 2020, she was elected to the National Academy of Medicine for "leading pioneering genetic marking and therapy trials targeting hematopoietic stem cells, and developing uniquely predictive non-human primate models to successfully improve the safety and efficiency of various gene therapies as well as gain insights into hematopoiesis and immunology". Early life. Cynthia was born in Syracuse, New York. She moved to Westport, Connecticut, at a young age and attended Staples High School. During her sophomore year, a close friend developed Hodgkin lymphoma, a cancer stemming from white blood cells lymphocytes. While he underwent treatment at Yale New Haven Hospital, she visited him frequently. She decided to pursue a career in medicine after he died during their senior year. Dunbar earned a B.A. magna cum laude in History and Science from Harvard University in 1980. She received an M.D. magna cum laude from Harvard Medical School in 1984. She completed an internal medicine internship and residency at Boston City Hospital, and did a hematology fellowship at University of California, San Francisco. Career. In 1987, Dunbar started at the NIH as a postdoctoral fellow in the laboratory of Arthur W. Nienhuis. She became an independent Investigator in 1993, and has been Head of the Molecular Hematopoiesis Section since 2000. She served as the program director for the NIH/NHLBI clinical hematology fellowship program for 17 years. Dunbar's current research at the Molecular Hematopoiesis laboratory in the Translational Stem Cell Biology Branch focuses on understanding the biology and clinical applications of stem cells. The research centers on haematopoiesis, the development and differentiation of stem cells into multiple types of blood cells. Her research focuses on hematopoiesis in vivo and optimizing and improving the safety of gene transfer for therapeutic purposes. Dunbar's laboratory utilizes a rhesus macaque transplantation model, and her facility is one of only a handful worldwide able to successfully support non-human primates through stem cell transplantation. Dunbar's team has developed new gene therapy vector systems for high-efficiency transduction of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Recently, her laboratory has focused on developing, testing, and optimizing gene-editing technologies such as CRISPR/Cas9. Her recent clinical work has focused on strategies to expand human in vivo hematopoietic stem cells, including a trial of the stem cell stimulatory cytokine analog eltrombopag for the treatment of patients with aplastic anemia. The trial resulted in the first FDA-approved new drug to treat aplastic anemia in over 30 years. Dunbar's research team has also focused on what happens when hematopoietic stem cells age and whether that might explain why older adults have increased risk for blood cancers and other blood-related illnesses. Her team has found that stem cell abnormalities that arise as a part of aging may contribute to an increased risk of heart disease and even the inflammatory response seen in some patients with COVID-19. Dunbar became an associate editor of Blood in 1998 and served in that position until 2008, when she was elected as the first female Editor-in-Chief of Blood. She served in that position between 2007 and 2012. She, along with Ezekiel Emanuel, revived the NIH Assembly of Scientists to advise NIH leadership and represent the concerns of NIH's scientific and clinical staff in top-level decision-making. Dunbar is currently the Secretary of the American Society of Hematology. She was the President of the American Society of Gene and Cell Therapy. She was a faculty member for the ASH-European Hematology Association Translational Research Training in Hematology program from 2011 to 2016 and was co-director in 2016. Personal life.

Bernard Manning (singer)

English singer and actor Bernard Manning (c. 1886 – 5 May 1962) was an English singer and actor who had a career in Australia, notably in Gilbert and Sullivan operas. After retiring from the professional stage, he promoted amateur productions in Perth, Western Australia. History. Manning was born in Melbourne, Derbyshire, the youngest son of farmer Robert Manning Smith. He began singing in the cathedral choir in Lichfield in Staffordshire, living and studying at a college attached to the cathedral. When his voice broke he lost his place in the choir, so returned to the farm. He spent a year as a jackaroo on a cattle station near Maryborough, Queensland. Some reports attribute this move to a search for a healthier climate, others to his interest in veterinary science, though it may have simply been "colonial experience". While in Queensland he joined the choir of the Anglican cathedral, Brisbane, as a tenor. Returning to England, he studied for four years at the Guildhall School of Music, London where, though his voice encompassed a wide range (low D to top A), Sir Landon Ronald insisted on him singing bass. He won a scholarship for singing German folksong, and studied oratorio. Rather than relying on his voice for a living he also studied medicine, qualifying as a veterinarian. When the war came he enlisted and fought in France, where he suffered from a poison gas attack but was otherwise uninjured. In 1919 he joined the D'Oyly Carte Opera Company, singing Gilbert and Sullivan, then in 1925 left for Australia under contract to J. C. Williamson, remaining with his troupes for 25 years. Roles. Manning played 23 roles in G & S, but was famous for four, several of which he played over 1,000 times: Mountararat in "Iolanthe" and Roderick Murgatroyd in "Ruddigore" have also been mentioned as memorable roles. Last years. Manning retired in December 1950 and moved to Perth, where he married Mildred Hagenauer Le Souef, a biology teacher at Wesley College and daughter of zoologist E. A. Le Souef. In 1940 he was engaged to Margaret "Madge" Miller of South Yarra, but nothing further has been found. His marriage to Le Souef was the culmination of a friendship which began in 1930, when Manning visited Col. Le Souef at his home in South Perth. Once settled in Perth, Manning set about formation of the Gilbert and Sullivan Society of W.A. for the benefit of the many enthusiasts in the city. The society was formed in May 1951, with Manning elected president, with Marie Bremner and William Beecham vice-presidents. One early activity of the Society was to play recordings from one or other of the operas, and for members to take the spoken lines between the songs. Their first production was HMS "Pinafore" at the Assembly Hall, co-produced by Nita Pannell and Manning, who also played Dick Deadeye. The critic "Fidelio" thought the play creditably performed. Beecham succeeded Manning as president of the Society, which played "The Pirates of Penzance" for two weeks at His Majesty's Theatre in November 1953 to critical acclaim. In August 1954 the Society played "The Mikado", again to excellent reviews. Earle Nowotny was musical director for the Society's productions. Manning died in Royal Perth Hospital.

Eraserhead (soundtrack)

Eraserhead: Original Soundtrack (sometimes referred to as Eraserhead: Original Soundtrack Recording or just Eraserhead) is a 1982 soundtrack album composed by David Lynch and Alan Splet as the soundtrack for Lynch's 1977 film "Eraserhead." Sacred Bones Records remastered and reissued the album in 2012. Recording. The mood and tone of "Eraserhead" and its soundtrack were influenced by Philadelphia's post-industrial history. Lynch lived in the city while studying painting at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, and was fascinated by its feeling of constant danger; describing it both as a "sick, twisted, violent, fear ridden, decaying place" and "beautiful, if you see it the right way." Lynch and Splet used avant-garde approaches to recording on the soundtrack; including crafting almost every sound in the soundtrack from scratch using bizarre methods. The ambiance of the love scene in the movie, for example, was produced by recording air blown through a microphone as it sat inside a bottle floating in a bathtub. Lynch and Splet worked "9 hours a day for 63 days" to produce the soundtrack and all of the sound effects in the film. Splet recalls the sound effects Lynch called on him to produce for "Eraserhead" as "snapping, humming, buzzing, banging, like lightning, shrieking, squealing” over the five years it took to produce the film and its soundtrack. Splet had worked with Lynch since his short film "The Grandmother". Also during the production of the soundtrack, Lynch drew two telephone wires for Splet, each line indicating between four and five pitches he wanted to be represented in the movie's music and sound effects. When Splet played Lynch Fats Waller-esque pipe organ numbers as soundtrack material, Lynch was immediately confident in the pipe-organ style, stating that he had "never listened to any other kind of music for ("Eraserhead"). I knew that was it." Release. The original soundtrack for "Eraserhead" was released via I.R.S. Records on LP in the United States on June 15, 1982, with 5 tracks. Side A consists of three songs written by Thomas "Fats" Waller and Side B consists of "In Heaven", the song performed by Laurel Near's character the Lady in the Radiator in the original film. It was reissued in 2012 by Sacred Bones Records in the form of a deluxe LP box set with additional 7" and as a deluxe CD, including the previously unreleased track, "Pete's Boogie".

Runnymede Plantation

Runnymede was a plantation home at 3760 Ashley River Road near Charleston, South Carolina. The land borders Magnolia Gardens to the southeast. The plantation existed at least by 1705 when John Cattell acquired the tract. John Julius Pringle acquired the plantation in 1795 after a fire destroyed the original house. He changed the name of the plantation from Greenville to Susan's Place (a reference to his wife), and still later, changed the named to Runnymede. The name is sometimes spelled Runnymeade. During the Civil War, Union forces burned the second house, and it was replaced in 1882 with a third house by Charles C. Pinckney. Both the second and third houses were built on the foundations of the first house. In 1898, Runnymede, which was 1475 acres at the time, was sold by order of the court, and Mrs. C.C. Pinckney bought the plantation for $200, but the land was subject to a $12,000 mortgage and also a mining lease. The house burned on September 10, 2002. Both the main house and a detached, two-story kitchen house to the north were destroyed. The kitchen's chimney is now the tallest structure on the land. The investigation into the fire closed in November 2002 without finding a cause. The plantation had been bought by nearby property owners Floyd and Shirley Whitfield in 1997. The house was open to the public infrequently but was open at times including 1919, 1929, and 1938. Guests included 20th century painter William Posey Silva.

Isabel Bäurle

German plant biologist Isabel Bäurle is a German plant biologist who is a Professor of Plant Epigenetics at the University of Potsdam. She is on the editorial board of the "Current Opinion in Plant Biology". Early life and education. Bäurle was an undergraduate student at the University of Freiburg, where she studied biology and chemistry. She completed an undergraduate research internship at the University of Bologna. In 2000, Bäurle completed her doctoral research at the University of Freiburg. After graduating, she moved to the John Innes Centre, where she worked with Caroline Dean. Bäurle was awarded a Royal Society University Research Fellowship, which allowed her to start her independent scientific career at the John Innes Centre. She worked as a visiting researcher at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Plant Physiology. Research and career. Bäurle was appointed a group leader at the University of Potsdam in 2010. She was made a Junior Professor in 2013 and full Professor in 2019. Bäurle studies the adaptation of plants to abiotic stress, and the roles of epigenetics in the adaptation processes. Abiotic stress, which include extreme temperatures and restricted water, are likely to be exacerbated during the climate crisis. She has shown that plants remember their previous exposure to abiotic stresses, and that whilst their future responses are modified, the fundamental mechanisms that underpin these responses are not understood. Cellular memory in plants is surprising given that they do not have a nervous system. The outputs of Bäurle's research are being used to design new strategies for crop management. Bäurle serves on the editorial board of the "Current Opinion in Plant Biology". References. <templatestyles src="Reflist/styles.css" />

Kertajaya

Kertajaya or Kritajaya also called Dandhang Gendhis was the last king of the Kediri Kingdom who ruled around 1194–1222. At the end of his reign he declared that he wanted to be worshiped as a god. Kertajaya was killed by Ken Arok from Tumapel or Singhasari, which ended the period of the Kediri Kingdom. Ken Arok's Rebellion. In "Pararaton" Maharaja Kertajaya is called by the name Prabu Dandhang Gendis. It is said that at the end of his reign the stability of the Kediri Kingdom began to decline. This condition was because the king intended to reduce the rights of the Brahmins. The king said he wanted to be worshiped as a god. The request of Prabu Dandhang Gendis certainly met resistance from the priests and the Hindu and Buddhist priests and Brahmins. Although Prabu Dandhang Gendis showed his magic by sitting cross-legged on a sharp spear that stood up. Some people who did not recognize Kertajaya's divinity had to be cruelly tortured to death. Meanwhile, those who acknowledge their divinity will be freed from all punishments and given an honorable position. The Brahmins and the priests who were afraid of them chose to flee, and because of his ethics and greed, Kertajaya continued to be rejected by the Brahmins. The Brahmins chose to leave the capital Kingdom of Kediri. They left while continuing to tell Kertajaya's error to all the people of the kingdom they met. The Brahmins and priests asked for protection from the Tumapel area (Malang) under the leadership of Ken Arok. they chose to take refuge in Ken Arok, a subordinate of Dandhang Gendis who became an "akuwu" (currently a "camat" level position) in the Tumapel area. Ken Arok then made himself king and declared the Tumapel region as an independent kingdom, separated from Kediri. Knowing this, Kertajaya then prepared troops to attack Tumapel. Dandhang Gendis was not afraid at all. He claimed that he could only be defeated by Shiva. Hearing this, Ken Arok took the title Bhatara Guru (another name Shiva) and moved to lead the troops to attack Kediri. Ganter Battle. Ken Arok with the support of the Brahmins carried out an attack on the Kediri Kingdom. The two armies had met near the village of Ganter, east of Kadiri. The war between Tumapel and Kediri was fierce near the Ganter village area. The warlords Kadiri namely Mahisa Walungan (Dandhang Gendis' sister) and Gubar Baleman died at the hands of Ken Arok. Dandhang Gendis himself fled and hid up into heaven. "Nagarakretagama" also briefly recounted the news of Kertajaya's defeat. It is said that Kertajaya fled and hid in the "dewalaya" (the realm of the gods). The two texts report that Kertajaya's escape place is the realm of the gods. The possibility is that Kertajaya was hiding in a worship temple, or Kertajaya died and went to the realm of the gods.

She enjoys baking as a hobby. Career. Early years. Shin began learning to skate in 2015 at the age of seven, having been inspired from watching videos of Kim Yu-na skating on YouTube. The following year, she moved from Busan to Daegu to receive professional training before relocating to Seoul after entering the fifth grade. She won the national junior gold medal at the 2021 South Korean Championships. 2021–22 season: Junior World silver. Making her international debut on the Junior Grand Prix at the 2021 JGP Slovenia in Ljubljana, Shin finished in sixth place. The following week, she competed in her second event on the circuit, the 2021 JGP Poland in Gdańsk.

In her first senior event, Shin was fourth at the 2022 South Korean Championships. Shin was assigned to compete at the 2022 World Junior Championships, but events would soon complicate the situation. Shortly after the conclusion of the 2022 Winter Olympics, Russia invaded Ukraine. As a result, the International Skating Union banned all Russian athletes from competing at ISU championships. As Russian women had dominated international figure skating in recent years, this had a significant impact on the field. Due to both the invasion and the Omicron variant, the World Junior Championships could not be held as scheduled in Sofia in early March and were rescheduled for mid-April in Tallinn. Shin finished second in the short program, 3.12 points behind segment leader Isabeau Levito of the United States. She went on to win the free skate, taking a gold small medal for that segment but remained in second overall behind Levito by 0.54 points. She was only the second South Korean to win a World Junior medal, the first one being Yuna Kim. 2022–23 season: JGP Final and Junior World silver, first national title. Shin began the season on the Junior Grand Prix, winning the gold medal at the 2022 JGP Latvia in Riga. This included a new personal best in the short program, clearing 70 points in that segment for the first time. At her second event, the second of two Polish Junior Grand Prixes held in Gdańsk, she won the silver medal behind Japanese skater Ami Nakai. With a total of 28 points, Shin qualified to the 2022–23 Junior Grand Prix Final. After winning the national ranking competition in Uijeongbu in early December, Shin traveled to Turin the following week for the Junior Grand Prix Final. She skated a clean short program, placing second just 0.55 points behind the leader, Japan's Mao Shimada. Referring to performing again so soon after the ranking competition, Shin said she was "really tired, but it's OK." She was second in the free skate and also second overall, saying she was "satisfied with the result, the clean program, and the silver medal." She and bronze medalist Kim Chae-yeon were the first Korean women to medal since Kim Yu-na in 2005. She reflected on Kim as her inspiration, noting "I want to follow her path.". Shin placed second in the short program at the 2023 South Korean Championships, behind Kim Ye-lim, after stepping out of her jump combination. She won the free skate despite colliding with the boards attempting the same jump combination, and overtook Kim to take the gold medal. Due to her ineligibility for senior competition, Shin was assigned to finish her season at the 2023 World Junior Championships in Calgary. Entering as the defending silver medalist, she finished second in the short program with a new personal best 71.19, 0.59 points behind segment leader Shimada. She cleanly landed most of her jumps in the free skate, only to fall at the end of her choreographic sequence and take a one-point deduction. She finished narrowly second in the segment, just ahead of Nakai, and won her second consecutive Junior World silver medal. Calling this "a great highlight" after having felt sick earlier in the week, she also stated that she planned to work with veteran choreographer David Wilson on programs for the following season. 2023–24 season: Youth Olympic silver, second national title. In July 2023, Shin announced that she had left Seoul and moved to Chiba, Japan, to train at the MF Figure Skating Academy under Kensuke Nakaniwa and alongside the 2023 World Junior bronze medalist, Ami Nakai. She subsequently had to return to train in Korea, citing "minor injuries and problems with high school entrance exams." Chi Hyun-jung and Kim Jin-seo became her new coaches. Shin began by competing at the 2023 South Korean ISU Junior Grand Prix Qualifiers, where she debuted her 2023–2024 programs. Shin skated a clean short program, earning 69.32 points, ranking first in the segment, and also a clean free skate, earning 139.48 points, ranking first both in the segment and overall. Her performance earned her two assignments on the Junior Grand Prix circuit. At the 2023 JGP Austria, she finished first in both segments and won the gold medal by a 33-point margin over silver medalist Haruna Murakami of Japan. She achieved a similarly dominant result at the 2023 JGP Hungary in Budapest, placing first in both segments and finishing nearly 24 points ahead of the silver medalist, fellow Korean skater Kim Yu-seong. She erred only once in each program, in both cases an underrotation call on one jump. These results secured Shin her second consecutive Junior Grand Prix Final berth; of this, she said "I am honoured and I will do my best." Shin then competed at the national qualifying competition for the 2024 Winter Youth Olympics, to be held on home soil in Gangwon. She placed first in both segments to win the gold medal, and was named to one of Korea's two berths in the women's competition, along with Kim Yu-seong. She went on to win the senior national ranking competition for the second consecutive season. Shin narrowly won the short program at the Junior Grand Prix Final in Beijing, despite turning out of her jump combination, after chief rival Mao Shimada made a more significant error on her triple Lutz jump. In the free skate she made only two minor errors, receiving an incorrect edge call on a triple flip and a quarter underrotation on a loop, but was unable to match Shimada, who landed both a triple Axel and a quadruple toe loop. She won her second consecutive Final silver, and said she was "really happy" with the result. At the 2024 South Korean Championships in early January, Shin won the gold medal for the second consecutive time. With this result, Shin was selected to compete at the World Junior Championships for the third consecutive year. At the end of January, Shin competed in the women's event at the Youth Olympics, in what was considered another matchup between herself and Shimada. She placed third in the short program after a heavy landing on the first part of her jump combination caused her to perform only a double jump as the second half. She finished second in the free skate, 0.59 points behind Shimada, after underrotating a triple flip and performing an invalid spin, and moved up to second overall as a result, securing another silver medal behind Shimada. Saying she was "too nervous today,” Shin assessed that "I was fortunate I didn't make any big mistakes until the end. I feel really happy to get a medal in front of the home crowd." Days later, Shin was part of Team Korea in the team event. She finished first in the women's segment, setting a new personal best score of 137.48, while the team went on to win the gold medal. Shin concluded the season at the 2024 World Junior Championships, in another contest with Shimada. She won the short program with a new personal best 73.48 points, 0.88 points ahead of Shimada, earning a gold small medal. She skated a clean free skate, but finished second to Shimada, who landed a quadruple jump, and took her third consecutive World Junior silver medal. Shin said she was satisfied with her performance in the free skate, though adding she was "a little bit sad" that it was the last time she would perform her "Not About Angels" program. 2024–25 season. Shin began the season by winning the 2024 South Korean ISU Junior Grand Prix Qualifiers and was given two Junior Grand Prix assignments as a result of her placement. In August 2024, it was announced that Shin had moved to Toronto, Canada, to train at the Toronto Cricket, Skating and Curling Club with coaches Brian Orser and Tracy Wilson. In her first appearance on the Junior Grand Prix, Shin was considered the pre-event favourite at the 2024 JGP Thailand, but placed sixth in the short program. In the free skate, she fell twice, but managed to place third in that segment of the competition. She moved up to fourth place overall, missing the podium by less than two points. Weeks later, Shin delivered stronger performances at the 2024 JGP Slovenia, where she won the silver medal. With these results, Shin was named as the first alternate for the 2024–25 Junior Grand Prix Final. In late November, Shin competed at the South Korean Ranking Competition, where she debuted a new free skate to the music of "Liebesträume No. 3" by Franz Liszt. She win the silver medal at the event. Over one month later, at the 2025 South Korean Championships, Shin once again finished second to Kim. Competitive highlights.

Peter Beaumont (figure skater)

Canadian figure skater Peter Beaumont (born July 24, 2001) is an English ice dancer, who competes internationally for Canada. With his skating partner, Nadiia Bashynska, he is a two-time World Junior bronze medalist (2022, 2023), 2022–23 Junior Grand Prix Final champion, a four-time ISU Junior Grand Prix medallist, and the 2023 Canadian Junior champion. Beaumont formerly skated for Great Britain with partner Mia Jowitt, and was the 2015 British novice ice dance champion. Personal life. Beaumont was born in Rotherham, England. Skating career. Early career. After starting to learn to skate in 2009, Beaumont competed in the United Kingdom as both a singles skater and an ice dancer. In singles, he won the silver medal at the 2015 British Novice Championships. His first ice dance partnership was with Mia Jowitt, and together they won the 2015 British novice title, and the bronze medal at the 2016 British Junior Championships. Jowitt/Beaumont ended their partnership in the 2016–17 season. Beaumont moved to train in Toronto under coaches Carol and Jon Lane and Juris Razgulajevs, having been put in touch with them via one of his British coaches, Vivienne Dean. He began skating with Ukrainian-Canadian dancer Nadiia Bashynska in January 2017, representing Canada. 2017–18 season: Debut of Bashynska/Beaumont. Bashynska and Beaumont began competing together domestically, winning the silver medal at the 2018 Skate Canada Challenge's novice division. This qualified them to the 2022 Canadian Novice Championships, where they won the gold medal. Based on this, they were given their first international assignment to the advanced novice competition at the Egna Trophy in Val Gardena. Third after the short dance, they rose to second overall in the free dance. Beaumont said that they were both "really thankful for the opportunity to skate abroad." 2018–19 season: JGP debut. Moving up to the junior level, Bashynska/Beaumont were fifth at the Lake Placid Ice Dance International in New York. They were assigned to make their Junior Grand Prix debut at the 2018 JGP Slovakia in Bratislava. Placing ninth in the rhythm dance, they were fifth in the free dance despite an audience member throwing a stuffed toy onto the ice midway through the program, requiring them to adjust where they were going. They remained ninth overall. Thirteenth at Skate Canada Challenge, they finished the season competing at the 2019 Canadian Junior Championships, where they were tenth. 2019–20 season: First JGP medal. Bashynska/Beaumont returned to Lake Placid Ice Dance International to start the season, winning the gold medal. They were assigned to two events on the Junior Grand Prix, beginning with the 2019 JGP Russia in Chelyabinsk. They set personal bests in all three programs, finishing third in the rhythm dance, fifth in the free dance, and taking the bronze medal overall. Bashysnka and Beaumont were the only non-Russian medallists in any discipline in Chelyabinsk. Bashynska noted that the well-attended Russian event was the largest audience they had ever performed in front of. They were fourth at their second event, the 2019 JGP Croatia. Winning silver medals at both Skate Canada Challenge and the 2020 Canadian Junior Championships, Bashynska Beaumont were next assigned to the Bavarian Open along with the other three top Canadian junior dance teams to determine which would attend the 2020 World Junior Championships. They performed poorly at the event, finishing ninth overall and last among the Canadian teams, and as such their season concluded. 2020–21 season. With the COVID-19 pandemic severely constraining competitions, both the ISU Junior Grand Prix and the 2021 World Junior Championships were cancelled. As well, in-person domestic competition was limited, as a result of which Bashynska/Beaumont competed only once during the season, at a virtually-held 2021 Skate Canada Challenge. They won the bronze medal. The 2021 Canadian Junior Championships were subsequently cancelled. 2021–22 season: World Junior bronze. With the resumption of the Junior Grand Prix, Bashynska/Beaumont returned to international competition at the 2021 JGP Russia in Krasnoyarsk. They finished fourth, less than three points back of third. Bashynska said that they were satisfied with their performance overall, but needed to address some technical issues. Weeks later at their second event, the 2021 JGP Austria in Linz, they initially placed fourth in the rhythm dance. Third in the free dance, they rose to third overall to win their second JGP bronze medal. Beaumont said that going into the free dance they "had the mindset that we've moved up in the standings before and we can do it again." Bashynska/Beaumont won the gold medal at the 2021 Skate Canada Challenge. Entering the 2022 Canadian Junior Championships in Ottawa, they were second in both programs to take their second consecutive national silver medal. Due to the pandemic, the 2022 World Junior Championships could not be held as scheduled in Sofia in early March, and as a result were rescheduled for Tallinn in mid-April. The event was further upended when Bashynska's birth country of Ukraine was invaded by Russia. Bashynska and Beaumont's free program for the season had been a medley of Russian folk songs, including the military-themed "Katyusha", which Bashynska would later say "was very close to me" as she felt "it unites our two Nations to show nothing but love." In light of the invasion, she said "now I don't think I'll be able to forgive or ever compare these two countries ever again. I'm Ukrainian and will always be." The team revived their previous seasons' free dance to "Caruso" and "And the Waltz Goes On" for the rest of the season. As a result of the invasion, the International Skating Union banned all Russian and Belarusian athletes from participating in competitions, which had a significant impact on the junior dance field. The North American dance teams were viewed as favourites to dominate the podium, though Bashynska/Beaumont were not considered among the very top contenders going in compared to their compatriots D'Alessandro/Waddell and Americans Wolfkostin/Chen and Brown/Brown. In the rhythm dance, they scored 63.45 points, finishing narrowly in third place, 0.15 points behind D'Alessandro/Waddell in second, while the Browns were solidly in first place with 66.98. Wolfkostin/Chen were distantly in ninth after she fell on her twizzle sequence. Beaumont said that "coming to this competition, we didn't have any expectations as a team. We just wanted to enjoy it and let our skating speak for itself." In the free dance they lost points when their rotational lift was graded as only level 1, placing fifth in that segment, but remained in third place overall, 0.37 points ahead of Wolfkostin/Chen. They won the bronze medal, saying they were "overjoyed" with the result. 2022–23 season: JGP Final gold. Bashynska and Beaumount were initially scheduled to begin their final junior season at the Armenian stop on the Junior Grand Prix circuit. However, when that was cancelled as a result of the September conflict between Azerbaijan and Armenia, they were reassigned elsewhere. Instead, their first event was the first of two Polish Junior Grand Prixes held in Gdańsk. They won the gold medal there, setting three new personal best scores. Bashynska commented on the delay, saying "we're pretty lucky that we motivate each other every day. So even when we found out about the cancellation we were able to push through and keep sharp for this competition." Competing at the second Polish event the following weekend, they won their second gold medal, improving their rhythm dance and total scores and securing qualification to the Junior Grand Prix Final. At the Junior Grand Prix Final in Torino, Bashynska/Beaumont finished first in the rhythm dance after pre-event favourites Mrázková/Mrázek of the Czech Republic had a double-fall in their Argentine tango pattern dance. They won the free dance as well, taking the gold medal and becoming the first Canadian dancers to medal at the event since Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir in 2005. Bashynska remarked that "we were aiming to win obviously, but actually winning is like 'Oh my gosh' I don't know how else to describe. It feels surreal." Both noted that the World Junior Championships were being held in Calgary at the end of the season, saying they were looking forward to trying to win that title on home soil. Their training mates Piper Gilles and Paul Poirier won gold in the senior Grand Prix Final on the same day. Heavy favourites for the national title going in, they broke Lajoie/Lagha's national junior records at the 2023 Canadian Junior Championships and took the gold medal. They were subsequently named to compete at the 2023 World Junior Championships. At the World Junior Championships in Calgary, Bashynska/Beaumont entered as one of the title favourites based on their season to date, but encountered problems in the rhythm dance, stumbling in the first pattern segment, on which they received only a level 1. They earned a level 2 on the second set. As a result, they finished fourth in the segment, 0.89 points behind third-place Britons Bekker/Hernandez. They skated more cleanly in the free dance, albeit with Beaumont losing a twizzle level, but rose to third place in the segment and were narrowly third overall by 0.06 points, after Bekker/Hernandez took a one-point deduction for an extended lift. They earned their second Junior World bronze. On the subject of the move to the senior level, Bashynska said they were "looking forward to showing a new side of ourselves, obviously stepping up our game." 2023–24 season: Senior debut. For their first senior programs, Bashynska and Beaumont initially contemplated a "Twilight"-themed free program, and subsequently one to Ludwig Minkus' "La Bayadère", both of which their coaches opposed. They ultimately agreed on a "Romeo and Juliet" program, incorporating music from both Nino Rota's 1968 film score and Sergei Prokofiev's 1940 ballet. Bashynska/Beaumont made their international senior debut on the Challenger circuit at the 2023 CS Nepela Memorial, coming in seventh. She afterward said the experience was "way more satisfying than I thought it was going to be which makes me really happy that we did so well. We're learning, and this was the first year of many years ahead of us, and I think we can both agree that this is the first step towards a long process." They were invited to make their Grand Prix debut at the 2023 Grand Prix of Espoo, where they finished in eighth place. Beaumont explained afterward that the team "came here with the goal of having clean and expressive performances. We did a lot of preparation for this event – the past three weeks have been really tough, so we’re really happy with how it went this weekend." Making their first appearance in the domestic senior category at the Skate Canada Challenge, Bashynska/Beaumont won the gold medal. Beaumont noted the proximity to the Finnish Grand Prix, saying it"it was nice to come here and skate relatively clean programs," as they were "happy with how we did relative to how physically tired we are." In their senior national championship debut at the 2024 edition in Calgary, Bashynska/Beaumont were fourth in the rhythm dance, but dropped to sixth after a fall in the free dance. 2024–25 season. Bashynska/Beaumont started the season by finishing seventh at the 2024 Lake Placid Ice International. Going on to compete on the 2024-25 ISU Challenger Series, the duo finished seventh at the 2024 Trophée Métropole Nice Côte d'Azur. Bashynka would later post a video to her YouTube channel following the event, saying that she had sprained her ankle while walking to the rink on the day of the free dance competition.

Duquesne Athletic Club

The Duquesne Athletic Club professional ice hockey team, based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, played for only one season in 1908–09. It won the final championship of the Western Pennsylvania Hockey League (WPHL). History. The Duquesne Athletic Club (DAC) was established in 1908 in a new building leased from steel and real estate magnate Henry Phipps. Located on Duquesne Way in downtown Pittsburgh, the building featured a swimming pool, a gymnasium and Turkish baths. The new club promised to support a variety of sports and teams, including a WPHL ice hockey team to be "composed of stars". The hockey team took the place in the league vacated by the defunct Pittsburgh Pirates. The club secured Alf Smith, former Ottawa Silver Seven star who began his professional career with the Pittsburgh Athletic Club, to captain the team and choose its players. Though unable to retain Smith for more than a small part of the season, the DAC finished with a 10–4–1 record to win the league title. The championship came down to the last game of the season in which Duquesne beat the Pittsburgh Bankers 4–2. The Duquesne team existed only in the last season of the WPHL, a season during which many players in the league "jumped" their contracts for better offers from Canadian clubs. Such desertions depleted the league's rosters and forced the mid-season disbandment of one Pittsburgh team, the Lyceum, whose remaining players were distributed to the league's three remaining teams. The official WPHL referee, Roy Schooley, questioned whether the DAC would have won the title had all of the teams that started the season finished intact, but praised Duquesne's performance, saying that "after the making over process they played earnestly, consistently, and at times brilliantly". Schooley gave special credit for the team's success to players Harry McRobie (who finished the season as captain), Tom Westwick, Joe Dennison, and Ray Robinson, the last of whom Schooley called "by far the best left wing in the league". McRobie, Westwick, and Dennison abandoned the team in early January for the St. Catharines Pros of the Ontario Professional Hockey League, but after only a few days there, reconsidered and came back to the DAC. The Duquesne team was from then on nicknamed the "Prodigals", referencing the biblical Parable of the Prodigal Son. References to uniform color are in reports of a game played December 19, 1908: The team was referred to in one newspaper as the "brown and white artists" and in another as the "maroon jersey wearers".

China Development Finance Corporation

The China Development Finance Corporation (CDFC, ) was an investment company formed in 1934 to facilitate investment in the Republic of China, specifically into infrastructure development and in particular railways. Its main sponsor was Chinese financier and statesman T. V. Soong, acting on ideas formulated by then international financier Jean Monnet during Soong's trip to the United States in May 1933 and Monnet's own stay in China from November 1933. The CDFC quickly became a major access channel for foreign financing of investment in China. From its inception, however, it was undermined by Japanese hostility, and from 1937 by the Second Sino-Japanese War, followed by the Chinese civil war and eventually by expropriation from mainland China in 1949. The CDFC was also limited by its identification with the interests of the family and clientele group around Soong. Formation. The first idea of the CDFC emerged from discussions in May 1933 in the United States between T. V. Soong and Jean Monnet, whom Soong had first approached to advise the Chinese government in late 1932 following a recommendation by their common acquaintance Ludwik Rajchman. In October 1933, Soong resigned as finance minister following disagreements with Chiang Kai-shek about attitudes towards Japan, to which Soong was more hostile than Chiang. Monnet arrived in Shanghai on none }} from San Francisco and, in early 1934, came to the conclusion that, unlike in his initial blueprint, the CDFC should be formed with equity capital from China only. The reason was that opening the capital to foreign investors would entail either including or excluding Japan, both options being problematic. The CDFC was formed on that basis in the spring, with a capital of C$10 million,21 and held its first board meeting on none }}. It elected T. V. Soong's brother-in-law H. H. Kung as chairman, Soong himself and Tsuyee Pei (father of I. M. Pei) as executive directors, and Soong's brother T. L. Soong as general manager. Other prominent backers included banker Li Ming and intellectual luminary Li Shizeng. Most of its equity capital was held by domestic Chinese banks, including the "big four": Farmers Bank of China, Bank of Communications, Central Bank of China, and Bank of China notwithstanding its general manager Chang Kia-ngau's misgivings. The Japanese government's initial reaction was hostile, despite Monnet's efforts to keep them continuously informed of the project's development, though that did not prevent the CDFC from starting its activity in 1934. On none }}, the CDFC hired Monnet as its exclusive representative in Europe and the United States for a renewable three-year term, against which Monnet would receive 7.5 percent of the CDFC's profits or rights to profits from syndicating business.21 Activity. The CDFC leveraged the Soong family connections to access capital in China, including from the Bank of China whose board T. V. Soong chaired from 1935 to 1943. It assembled financing for the completion of the railway from Shanghai to Hangzhou and Ningbo, in partnership with the British and Chinese Corporation.28 For that project, it completed the Qiantang River Bridge in 1937, but had to sabotage it only a few weeks later, to deny its use to the invading Japanese Army. Its attempts to complete the Chengyu line from Chongqing to Chengdu, operated by the Chuan Chien Railway company, were similarly thwarted by the war situation, with only a section completed by April 1938,34 and eventually by the outbreak of World War II in Europe. The CDFC soon built up multiple businesses and became a conglomerate with activities in coal mining, electricity generation, but also department stores (through shareholding in Wing On), cotton, lumber, and stamp tax collection for the Chinese government. Despite disruption from Japanese occupation of much of China's territory, it kept operating during the war years. After 1945 it was able to repossess its former assets in the areas liberated from Japanese occupation, but many of these had been damaged and investment was made more difficult by the context of hyperinflation and civil war. By that time, T. V. Soong's influence and connections had declined, and he was the subject of political attacks including from inside the Kuomintang. Eventually, the People's Republic of China seized all mainland CDFC properties in 1949 as "bureaucratic capitalist enterprises". Meanwhile, Monnet had left China in July 1934, and on none }} co-founded in New York the investment bank Monnet, Murnane & Co. which soon had offices in Hong Kong, London, New York City, Paris and Shanghai, and took over Monnet's role as CDFC fundraiser in the western world. Monnet made a second trip to China, from April 1935 to January 1936. On none }}, he brokered an agreement between the CDFC and the Franco-Chinese Bank, which in turn gathered support in 1937 from the Banque de Paris et des Pays-Bas, the Banque de l'Indochine and the Banque Lazard Frères to support the CDFC's investment projects. Monnet built up a similar financing platform for the CDFC in Belgium.31 His business relationship with the CDFC, however, deteriorated in the late 1930s, despite T. V. Soong's continued personal commitment to the partnership. On none }}, Monnet resigned from his position of chairman of Monnet, Murnane & Co., as he was by then focused on the European war situation.39 Assessment. Beyond its significant business activity, the CDFC has been deemed of historical interest as an early example of a Chinese public-private business organization, prefiguring in certain ways some of the politically connected family-controlled conglomerates of early 21st-century China. In his memoirs written in the 1970s, Monnet reflected about the CDFC experience that "[t]he Soong family and their associates were among the main shareholders in the China [Development Finance] Corporation. The idea of public service was not yet wholly free from dynastic traditions, and the long march towards democracy had hardly begun." Notes. <templatestyles src="Reflist/styles.css" />

2022 Kentucky Derby

148th running of the Kentucky Derby The 2022 Kentucky Derby (officially, the 148th Running of the Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve) took place on Saturday, May 7, 2022, at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky. It was the 148th running of the Kentucky Derby, a Grade I stakes race for three-year-old Thoroughbreds. The Derby is held annually at Churchill Downs on the first Saturday in May since its inception in 1875. The 20 horses that ran in the Derby qualified by earning points in the 2022 Road to the Kentucky Derby. The two favorites for the 2022 Kentucky Derby were Epicenter, the winner of the Louisiana Derby, and Zandon, the winner of the Blue Grass Stakes. Both horses finished behind winner Rich Strike, who had only entered the race after a late scratch. Entering the race at odds of 80–1, Rich Strike's victory was the second-largest upset in Derby history. It was the first Kentucky Derby victory for his trainer Eric Reed, as well as the first graded stakes win in any race for his jockey Sonny Leon. Qualification. Participation in the Kentucky Derby is restricted to three-year-old Thoroughbreds. As such, all participants in the 2022 race were foaled in 2019, and most originated from the 2019 North American crop of 20,433 foals. This was the smallest North American foal crop since 1966, in which 20,228 Thoroughbreds were foaled. Participation in the Kentucky Derby is also open to European and Japanese Thoroughbreds, but foreign participation is rare. The field is limited to the top 20 horses on the 2022 Road to the Kentucky Derby leaderboard; these points are distributed to the top-four finishers in designated races. The Road to the Kentucky Derby system was introduced in 2013; previously, qualification was tied to a horse's earnings in previous graded stakes races, which were affected by variables such as the presence of casinos at a particular race track. In 2022, the main Road to the Kentucky Derby consisted of 36 races in North America plus one in Dubai, taking place between September 18, 2021, and April 16, 2022. It featured the addition of one race — the newly created Gun Runner Stakes, which took place at Fair Grounds Race Course on December 26. No horse trained by Bob Baffert was eligible for points in any qualification race. If a Baffert-trained horse were to finish in the top four of a qualifying race, zero points would be awarded. This rule was put into place as part of a larger series of sanctions against Baffert, whose 2021 Kentucky Derby runner Medina Spirit finished first but was subsequently disqualified after testing positive for betamethasone. In response, owners of several Baffert-trained Derby contenders transferred them to trainers Tim Yakteen and Rodolphe Brisset. Two of these horses, Taiba and Messier, eventually started in the Derby after earning points following the transfer. The eight major prep races for Derby qualification are, in chronological order, the UAE Derby, Louisiana Derby, Florida Derby, Arkansas Derby, Jeff Ruby Steaks, Wood Memorial Stakes, Blue Grass Stakes, and Santa Anita Derby. All of these races provide 100 points to their first-place finisher. The major preps began on March 26, when Epicenter won the Louisiana Derby and Crown Pride, a Japanese horse who entered with 16–1 odds, won the UAE Derby. The next three major races were held on April 2, with White Abarrio, Cyberknife, and Tiz the Bomb winning the Florida Derby, Arkansas Derby, and Jeff Ruby Steaks, respectively. On April 9, the final day of major preps, Mo Donegal won the Wood Memorial, Zandon the Blue Grass, and Taiba the Santa Anita Derby. While a Derby invitation is extended to the winner of the European and the Japan Road to the Derby, none of the top finishers from either circuit were nominated for the Triple Crown, and the offers were not accepted. The one Japanese horse who participated in the Derby, Crown Pride, did so by qualifying on the main Road. Field. The field for the 2022 Kentucky Derby was considered to be one of the most competitive in recent memory, with no clear favorite in the weeks leading up to the race. The morning line front runners were Zandon and Epicenter, with 3–1 and 7–2 odds respectively. Zandon, the Blue Grass Stakes winner, had a 2–1–1 record (two wins, a second and a third-place finish) in four career starts and finished second in the Road to the Kentucky Derby with 114 points. Epicenter, meanwhile, was 4–1–0 in six lifetime starts with wins in the Risen Star Stakes and Louisiana Derby. He led the Road to the Derby with 164 points. Prior to the race, Epicenter drew post 3, an historically difficult starting post due to its close proximity to the rail. The last Kentucky Derby winner to break from the third post was Real Quiet in 1998. Zandon, breaking from the 10th post of 20, was also figured to run into traffic from his competitors as he had a late-running style. Also considered strong contenders for the Derby were Messier, Taiba, and White Abarrio. Messier, originally trained by Baffert, was transferred to Yakteen in order to qualify for the Triple Crown. He was 14th in qualification with 40 points and entered the race with a 3–3–0 record in six starts, including a second-place finish in the Santa Anita Derby. Taiba, the winner of the Santa Anita Derby, had also been transferred from Baffert to Yakteen and was undefeated in two starts. His 100 points were eighth among Kentucky Derby qualifiers. White Abarrio was trained by Saffie Joseph Jr., while his 112 points were third among all Derby contenders. White Abarrio had a 4–0–1 record in five lifetime starts, including a first-place finish in the Florida Derby. Messier drew the sixth post before the race, with Taiba drawing twelfth and White Abarrio fifteenth. If any of the 20 Derby entries is withdrawn from the race before betting begins, the next-highest ranked horse on the leaderboard draws into their place. On the day before the race, Ethereal Road, who was set to race from the 20th post, was scratched from the Derby. Rich Strike drew into the Derby as a result of the scratch. He had a record of 1–0–3 in seven lifetime starts and earned his qualifying points by finishing in third place at the Jeff Ruby Steaks. His only win came in a maiden claiming race on September 17, 2021. Race description. The Kentucky Derby takes place annually at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, on the first Saturday in May, where it began in 1875. Participating horses run a distance of , or 10 furlongs. The Derby is a Grade I event with a purse of $3,000,000 in 2022. Predicted rain and thunderstorms in Louisville, Kentucky suggested that the Derby could be raced in muddy or sloppy conditions. Only three horses in the Derby had previously raced on an "off" track, and such precipitation had the chance to alter the race dynamics. However, the rain held off. By the time horses reached the post, the weather at Churchill Downs was with cloudy skies and winds. The track condition was listed as fast. The listed attendance for the 2022 Kentucky Derby was 147,294. This was an increase over the previous year, when ticket sales were restricted due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, but below the expected crowd of 170,000. Coverage of the Derby was broadcast on USA Network from noon to 2:30 p.m. (ET) and then moved to NBC until 7:30 p.m. (ET). The race was also broadcast online through Peacock, NBCSports.com, and the NBC Sports app. Summer is Tomorrow took an early lead out of the gates, setting a Derby record by running the first quarter-mile in 21.78 seconds. Crown Pride kept apace with Summer is Tomorrow through the first half-mile, run in 45.36 seconds, with Messier following close behind. Messier took the lead at the <templatestyles src="Fraction/styles.css" />3⁄4-mile mark but was soon overtaken by Epicenter at the head of the stretch. Meanwhile, Rich Strike, who had been well back early, was still in fifteenth place after the first mile and in heavy traffic. Rich Strike moved to the rail, weaved around a tiring Messier and closed steadily in the final furlong to win the race with a time of 2:02.61. Epicenter finished in second place, <templatestyles src="Fraction/styles.css" />3⁄4 of a length behind. Another <templatestyles src="Fraction/styles.css" />3⁄4 of a length behind him was Zandon, with Simplification finishing a further two lengths back in fourth. Messier finished the race in fifteenth while Summer is Tomorrow finished last among all 20 participants. Going off at odds of 80–1, Rich Strike recorded the second-highest upset in Derby history behind Donerail, who won the 1913 race with 91–1 odds. He was also the second horse in Derby history to win the race from the 20th post, following Big Brown in 2008. It was the first Kentucky Derby victory for trainer Eric Reed, as well as the first graded stakes win of any kind for jockey Sonny Leon. Results.

Dawson and Reed told reporters that the decision was made to give Rich Strike time to recover from his "tremendous effort" in the Derby. His next start would instead be the 2022 Belmont Stakes, giving the horse five weeks between major races instead of two. It was the first time that a healthy Derby winner did not race in the Preakness since Spend a Buck in 1985. Instead, Early Voting won the Preakness, while Epicenter became the first horse since 2012's Bodemeister to finish second in both races. References. <templatestyles src="Reflist/styles.css" />

Students for Freedom and Equality

Iranian Student Organization. Students for Freedom and Equality (SFE) () was a left-wing Iranian student organization that was active between 2006 and 2009. After the Iranian Cultural Revolution (1980–1983), Students for Freedom and Equality represented the first organized presence of left-wing student activism across Iran's universities. In December 2007, Students for Freedom and Equality organized a series of demonstrations on several campuses, commemorating Iran's Student Day. Ahead of the demonstrations, agents of Iran's Military Intelligence began arresting student activists belonging to Students for Freedom and Equality. According to Human Rights Watch, during this country-wide crackdown on the organization, over 40 student activists were arrested and tortured. Founding. Although left-wing activists had a significant presence in some universities since the early 2000s, the announcement of the existence of Students for Freedom and Equality took place in 2006. During the June 2006 student protests, a group of left-wing students issued a statement entitled "University is not a barracks" and signed it as Students for Freedom and Equality. According to the enactments of the Supreme Council of the Cultural Revolution, non-Islamic organizations are not allowed to operate in universities. Either before or after their Student Day demonstration on December 4, 2007, Students for Freedom and Equality were not an "organization" in the general sense, but consisted of left-wing students organized around a variety of student and political activities.

Sinking of the Moskva

2022 sinking of Russian warship Moskva The Russian warship "Moskva", the flagship of the Russian Navy's Black Sea Fleet, was attacked and sunk by Ukrainian forces on 14 April 2022 during the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Ukrainian officials announced that their forces had hit and damaged it with two R-360 Neptune anti-ship missiles, and that the ship had then caught fire. The United States Department of Defense later confirmed this, and Russia reported that the ship had sunk in stormy seas after the fire reached munitions onboard and they exploded. The cruiser is the largest Russian warship to be sunk in wartime since the end of World War II, and the first Russian flagship sunk since "Knyaz Suvorov" in 1905, during the Russo-Japanese War. Russia said that 396 crew members had been evacuated, with one sailor killed and 27 missing, but there are unverified reports of more casualties. At least 17 of the missing crew members were later declared dead by a court in Sevastopol. Background. In February 2022, the "Moskva" left the Port of Sevastopol to participate in the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The ship was later used against the Ukrainian armed forces during the attack on Snake Island, together with the Russian patrol boat "Vasily Bykov". "Moskva" hailed the island's garrison over the radio and demanded its surrender, receiving the now-famous reply "Russian warship, go fuck yourself" from its garrison. After this, contact was lost with Snake Island and the thirteen-member Ukrainian garrison surrendered. The ship continued to be deployed in the Black Sea until its sinking in April 2022. Sinking. Ukrainian account. The first known report of a missile hitting the ship was at 20:42, 13 April 2022 Ukrainian time (EEST, ) with a Facebook post by a Ukrainian volunteer connected to the military: "The cruiser "Moskva" has just been hit by 2 Neptune missiles. It is standing [not sunk], burning. And there is a storm at sea. Tactical flooding is required, apparently." Later that evening presidential adviser Oleksiy Arestovych reported "Moskva" was on fire in rough seas and Odesa governor Maksym Marchenko officially confirmed that Ukrainian forces hit "Moskva" with two R-360 Neptune anti-ship missiles, which "caused very serious damage." At 12:43, 14 April EEST, the Ukrainian Southern Command posted a video on Facebook with a report stating the ship had received damage within the range of the Neptune anti-ship missile and that there was a fire onboard. The video also claimed that other vessels in "Moskva"'s group "tried to help, but a storm and a powerful explosion of ammunition overturned the cruiser and it began to sink." Russian account. Hours after Marchenko's claim, the Russian Ministry of Defense said that a fire had caused munitions to explode and that the ship had been seriously damaged, without any statement of cause or reference to a Ukrainian strike. The ministry said on 14 April that the missile systems of the cruiser were undamaged, the fire was contained by sailors, and that efforts were underway to tow the ship to port. Later on 14 April, the Russian ministry said that "Moskva" sank while being towed during stormy weather, On 15 April, the sinking was briefly reported on Russian news media and television, where it was claimed to be due to "stormy seas". Other early observations. The United States Department of Defense spokesman John Kirby said early on 14 April that they did not have enough information to confirm a missile strike, but could not rule it out. Imagery they had examined showed the ship had suffered a sizable explosion. The cause of the explosion was not clear. The ship appeared to be moving under its own power, probably heading to Sevastopol for repairs. A defense department spokesman later stated it was unclear whether the vessel was moving under her own power or being towed. A senior Defense Department official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, stated the ship was "battling a fire on board, but we do not know the extent of the damage” but it was "big" and "extensive." An image from a satellite with cloud-penetrating synthetic aperture radar (SAR) revealed that at 18:52 local time () on 13 April 2022, "Moskva" was located at , about south of Odesa, east of Snake Island and around from the Ukrainian coast. An analysis suggested this was not long after the damage occurred which caused the ship to eventually sink. In the image, the cruiser is accompanied by other vessels. At 02:59, 14 April 2022 [EEST], the Telegram channel "Reverse Side of the Medal", associated with the Russian paramilitary Wagner Group, posted the following: "According to unconfirmed reports, the flagship of the Black Sea Fleet, the cruiser Moskva, sank." The group added that, according to their "preliminary information, [the ship] was indeed attacked by the Neptune anti-ship missiles from the coastline between Odesa and Nikolaev." The channel reported that "the forces of the ship were diverted to counter the Bayraktar TB-2 UAV. The blow fell on the port side, as a result of which the ship took a strong roll. After the threat of detonation of ammunition, the crew of about 500 people was evacuated." At 10:59, 14 April 2022 [EEST], the Lithuanian defense minister, Arvydas Anušauskas, reported on Facebook that an SOS signal was sent at 01:05, the cruiser rolled onto its side at 01:14, and the electricity went out half an hour later. "From 2 a.m., a Turkish ship evacuated 54 sailors from the cruiser, and at about 3 a.m., Turkey and Romania reported that the ship was completely sunk." According to the Albanian website "Politiko", a Turkish official denied to BBC News that a Turkish ship rescued any Russian crew. In the afternoon of 14 April, US Defense Department spokesman Kirby confirmed the ship had sunk but said they were unable to confirm what caused the ship to sink, although the Ukrainian account was "certainly plausible." Speculating about the cause of the explosion, he stated: "Certainly, it could have been damage from some external force, like a missile or an attack of some kind, a torpedo or something like that ... but it could also be something that happens inside the skin of the ship – an engineering fire, a fuel fire. You just don't know." Missile strike. On 15 April, a senior US Defense official said that "Moskva" had been hit by two Neptune missiles; he also stated that the ship was about south of Odesa when she was struck and that the cruiser continued onward under her own power before sinking on 14 April. The official also said intelligence appraisals indicated there were casualties at the time of the strike, but he did not know how many. The Ukrainian missiles were apparently fired from a land-based launcher near Odesa while "Moskva" was located offshore. On 5 May, a US official said that the US gave "a range of intelligence" to assist in the sinking of the "Moskva". However, the decision to strike was purely a Ukrainian one. There was a US Navy P-8A Poseidon maritime surveillance aircraft in the area before the sinking. The P-8A from Italy was patrolling within its radar range over the Black Sea and the US, when asked, did identify the ship as the "Moskva" as part of intelligence sharing to help Ukraine defend against attacks from Russian ships. The US Department of Defense spokesman John Kirby stated: "There was no provision of targeting information by any United States Navy P-8 flying in these air policing missions." "Moskva" was equipped with a triple-tiered air defense that could have provided an adequate chance of intercepting the incoming Neptune missiles, with 3–4 minutes of radar detection warning. There was no record that the crew had activated these systems, including the S-300F and 9K33 Osa surface-to-air missiles, chaff or decoys, electronic jamming, or the last-ditch AK-630 close-in weapon systems. Tayfun Ozberk, a Turkey correspondent for "Defense News", suggested that the ship's radars either failed to detect the incoming Neptune missiles or that the defenses were not ready to engage the detected threat, implying a lack of crew training for such emergency scenarios. The operation to sink "Moskva" may have been assisted by the use of at least one Bayraktar TB2 drone (UCAV), which seems to have observed the event and may have played other roles in the ship's sinking. The Telegram post by the Wagner Group and a Ukrainian official said the drone "diverted" or "distracted" the crew, but David Hambling, a technology journalist writing in "Forbes", considered this unlikely, since the ship's anti-drone and anti-missile defenses were provided by two different systems: the long-range SA-N-6 Grumble (S-300F) missiles against the drone and the multibarreled AK-630 cannons against the Neptune missiles. Several reports were consistent with Bayraktar drones being in the same area as the ship. Arda Mevlutoglu, a defense industry analyst, stated that a Bayraktar TB2 ground-control station was seen in Odesa on 10 April. A video released by the Russian military on 12 April showed a missile being launched from the Russian frigate "Admiral Essen" and stated it destroyed a Bayraktar drone near the Crimean coast. A Ukrainian video "shot from the air with a night vision scope," claimed to show "Moskva" burning in the distance, and could have been made by a Bayraktar drone flying in the area. Analysts stated the Bayraktar drone may have also provided targeting information. Can Kasapoglu, the director of security and defense studies at the Turkish think tank Center for the Economics and Foreign Policy Studies (EDAM), said: "Reports that Turkish TB2 drones were involved in the attack either as a distraction for Moskva or as location spotter of Moskva are both quite possible." Mevlutoglu mentioned that Rear Admiral Oleksiy Neizhpapa, commander of the Ukrainian naval forces, had in the past suggested that TB2 drones would be used with Neptune launchers for target reconnaissance. Mevlutoglu also said the main radar system on "Moskva" was out of date, designed to detect aircraft and cruise missiles. The TB2, with a lower radar cross-section and flight speed, may have been missed by the ship's radar. The aviation journalist Valius Venckunas reported: "According to Arkady Babchenko, a Russian military journalist and an outspoken critic of Vladimir Putin, a Ukrainian Bayraktar disabled Moskva’s radar station, rendering it unable to detect and intercept incoming missiles. However, Babchenko has not provided the source of such information." Danish military analyst Anders Puck Nielsen makes a case that operator fatigue could have been a significant factor. With such systems active, the cruiser was expected to survive several strikes from Neptune missiles ( warhead each) due to its large displacement; one salvo combat model scenario suggests that at least eleven Neptune missiles would have needed to been launched simultaneously; "Moskva" could have defeated six of them, with the remaining five getting through its defenses and striking the ship, causing just enough hull damage to sink it. However, this assumes that ship munitions were not detonated by the impact thus poor damage control, using conscripts instead of mid-grade professionals, and insufficient compartmentation have been suggested as contributing reasons to why the cruiser sank. Images and video of the sinking ship. By 18 April, two images and a short 3-second video clip were circulating on social media showing "Moskva" after the fire broke out and prior to the final sinking. The images show the ship listing to port in daylight and calm seas, with signs of extensive fire damage around the central superstructure in addition to the presence of holes at the waterline, and most of her life rafts missing, indicating that some of the crew had evacuated by this point. According to CNN, "a large Russian rescue tug can be seen dousing the warship with water on the far [starboard] side." The source or author of the video or images is unknown. "The Telegraph" reported the images were first posted to the web via Telegram on a channel linked to Russian security agencies. Analysts who were independently consulted by "The Guardian" and CNN confirmed that the images appear to show "Moskva". "The Guardian" quoted Yörük Işık, a journalist and expert ship spotter, as saying: "I believe the video is real. What we see shape, size. It is the "Moskva"." "The Guardian" also reported: "He [Işık] said he believed at least one of the photographs was taken from a Project 22870 rescue tugship, of which Russia is believed to have two in the Black Sea." A senior US defense official said the images could not be independently verified, "but the images themselves comport with what we had assessed to be the damage done to the ship." Carl Schuster, former director of operations at the US Pacific Command's Joint Intelligence Operations Center, stated: "Assuming the photo is not faked in some way or photo-shopped, it looks like the missile(s) hit forward, which is not unexpected. Anti-ship cruise missiles (ASCMs) tend to go for the center of the radar return, which typically is the forward section of the superstructure." Chris Parry, a former rear admiral, wrote to "The Guardian": "It seems that one–two missiles entered the ship just below after the pair of Vulcan anti-ship missiles ... This would have caused massive internal damage and looks to have punctured the two missiles ... which would have drained down propellant fuel that further intensified the fire within the ship by spreading horizontally along the decks and through the damaged bulkheads." Naval experts consulted by the BBC considered damage to be consistent with a missile attack but disagreed with each other about the plausibility of other causes. The video does not show the storm stated in Russian reports. Casualties. Lithuania's defense minister Arvydas Anušauskas said on 14 April that a distress signal had been sent from "Moskva" that day, and a Turkish ship responded, evacuating 54 personnel from the cruiser at 2 am, before she sank at 3 am. According to him, there were 485 crew on board, of whom 66 were officers. It was not known how many had survived. Ukrainian sources reported on 15 April that some of "Moskva"'s crew were killed, including First Rank Captain (NATO OF-5, US O-6) Anton Kuprin (age 43), the ship's commanding officer, at the time of the explosion. On 15 April, a senior US official said the government also believed there had been casualties. At a US Department of Defense briefing on 18 April, a senior defense official revealed they had also seen lifeboats in the water with sailors in them but did not have an accurate count. The independent Russian newspaper "Novaya Gazeta Europe" reported some 40 sailors had been killed at the time of the sinking. According to an eyewitness, there were some 200 injured sailors in a hospital in Crimea, out of an estimated 500 crewmembers from the ship. The report also said that the remaining sailors remained unaccounted for. The Russian Ministry of Defense said soon after the sinking that the crew had been evacuated, and initially did not report any casualties; however, some relatives of sailors have been told that their family member was "missing". On 16 April, Russia released a video allegedly showing a meeting in Sevastopol with around 100 sailors of "Moskva", along with Navy Commander-in-Chief Admiral Nikolay Yevmenov, who said that the sailors would continue their service in the Navy. According to independent Russian online newspaper "The Insider", out of a complement of 500 to 700 crewmen, about 100 sailors, and notably the First Rank Captain of the ship Anton Kuprin, are visible in the video. "Naval News" reported that the Russian Defense Ministry video showed around 240 people survived, which is roughly half the crew. The Ukrainian edition of Radio Liberty, however, says that it is impossible to verify the authenticity of the video. On 22 April, the Russian Defense Ministry released a statement confirming that one sailor from "Moskva" was killed and 27 were missing, while 396 crew members were rescued. Family members of crew serving aboard the "Moskva" allege that the number of missing sailors could be higher and that they have received no official information regarding their fate. At least 17 of the missing crew members were later declared dead by a court in Sevastopol. Impact. "Moskva" is the largest Soviet or Russian warship to be sunk in action since World War II, when German aircraft bombed the Soviet battleship "Marat", and the first loss of a Russian flagship in wartime since the 1905 sinking of the battleship "Knyaz Suvorov" during the Battle of Tsushima in the Russo-Japanese War. The last time a warship of comparable size was sunk was during the Falklands War in 1982, when the Argentine Navy cruiser ARA "General Belgrano" was sunk by the Royal Navy submarine . If Ukrainian claims are true, "Moskva" might be the largest warship ever disabled or destroyed by a missile, according to Carl Schuster, a retired US Navy captain and former director of operations at the US Pacific Command's Joint Intelligence Center. The loss of "Moskva" is considered significant and humiliating to Russian president Vladimir Putin but "more about psychological damage than material damage" according to Mykola Bielieskov from Ukraine's National Institute for Strategic Studies. He said that it would not completely lift Russia's naval blockade on Ukraine, but showed that Ukraine could employ sophisticated weaponry effectively. The Institute for the Study of War reached similar conclusions and said the loss of the ship may force Russia "to either deploy additional air and point-defense assets to the Black Sea battlegroup or withdraw vessels from positions near the Ukrainian coast." Russia moved 5 other warships further away from the Ukrainian coast. "Moskva" was the only warship in Russia's Black Sea Fleet with the S-300F missile system for long-range air defense. While the ship did not itself fire missiles at land targets in Ukraine, it still provided anti-aircraft support to vessels that did, and the sinking prompted Russian ships, now less protected, to move further offshore. Retired US Rear Admiral Samuel J. Cox, director of the Naval History and Heritage Command, told "The New York Times" that with the loss of the ship, in the newspaper's words, "any amphibious assault on Ukraine would be much more dangerous for Russia, with its landing and amphibious ships much more vulnerable to attacks." In June 2022, Russian "Vasily Bykov" class corvettes were spotted fitted with ground-based Tor-M1/2 anti-air missile systems on deck, with analysts speculating that the arrangement was to compensate for the loss of seaborne air defense following the loss of the "Moskva". Also in June, some of Russia's many gas platforms were attacked due to decreased area protection, about halfway between Crimea and occupied Snake Island. By August, the Russian Navy's ability to control the Black Sea had decreased as Odesa was no longer threatened from sea. However, the Russian Navy maintained the ability to protect Russian exports crossing the sea. While two sister ships of "Moskva" were deployed to the Eastern Mediterranean as of February 2022, Turkey has for the duration of the war closed the Turkish Straits to belligerent warships whose home port is not in the Black Sea, following the Montreux Convention. Thus, Russia cannot send ships to replace the lost "Moskva" from its other fleet bases without violating Turkish sovereignty. In 2020, the archpriest of the Russian Orthodox Church Sevastopol District said that a fragment of the True Cross would be kept in "Moskva"'s chapel. The True Cross is the cross on which believers say Jesus was crucified and a very rare relic important to many Christians. There was speculation after her sinking that the relic may have gone down with the ship. Aftermath. United States National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said that the sinking of "Moskva" "is a big blow to Russia", with Moscow split between a narrative of incompetence and one of having been attacked. Sasaki Takahiro, guest professor on Russian security policy at Hiroshima University, stated in "The Asahi Shimbun" that the sinking of "Moskva" is compared with that of "Yamato", the battleship of Imperial Japan. US Defense Department spokesman John Kirby said that "Moskva"'s main mission was air defense for the Russian forces in the Black Sea and that her sinking "will have an impact on that capability, certainly in the near term". According to an analysis by "Forbes Ukraine" on 14 April 2022, the sinking of "Moskva" is the most costly single loss for the Russian military in the war to date, and the ship would cost around US$750 million to replace. Although Russia did not confirm that Ukrainian missiles had hit the ship, Reuters reported that in the morning of 15 April, Russia launched an apparent retaliatory missile strike against the missile factory Luch Design Bureau in Kyiv, where the Neptune missiles allegedly used in the attack were designed and manufactured. The sinking of "Moskva" came two days after Ukrposhta released one million "Russian warship, go fuck yourself" stamps, which show a soldier giving the finger to "Moskva". The sinking boosted sales of the stamp in Ukraine. Some people in Ukraine queued for more than two hours to get the stamp. The sinking of "Moskva" likely boosted the morale of many Ukrainians and negatively affected morale of the invading Russian forces. Oleksiy Neizhpapa, the commander of Ukrainian naval forces, was promoted as a reward for the sinking of "Moskva." Russian TV media only discussed the story briefly, while news articles described out-of-date fire-suppression systems and said that the sinking would not have an effect on the war. However, film director and former State Duma member Vladimir Bortko, while speaking as a guest on a talk show, urged retaliation in the form of total war, asserting that the fate of "Moskva" “is absolutely a cause for war...[a] real war, no fooling around." On 18 April, Russia-1 state TV presenter Vladimir Solovyov criticised the Russian navy over the sinking; Russian commentator Sergei Markov, a strong Kremlin supporter, told the BBC Radio 4's "The World at One" that the cruiser had been struck by missiles shipped from Norway, and that her electronic defenses had been neutralised by the US. The Russian tabloid "Komsomolskaya Pravda" speculated that the ship had been hit by a Norwegian AGM-119 Penguin missile. A Ukraine-based publication and two defense analysts wrote in the aftermath that "Moskva" had the capability to carry nuclear warheads and that she may have been carrying two nuclear warheads at the time of her sinking. They called for neighboring nations to launch an investigation into the possibility of a nuclear accident. There is a slight chance that the cruiser was carrying nuclear warheads for her P-500/P-1000 anti-ship missiles, but there is no evidence indicating that she was doing so. A senior U.S. defense official stated there were no nuclear weapons on the ship when she sank. Ukraine declared the wreck of "Moskva" as having "underwater cultural heritage". It is being advertised as a dive wreck as it is only off the coast from Odesa and the water is only 45–50 metres deep. The wreck "can be admired without much diving". The Russian navy was reported to have sent the salvage ship with the submersible onboard to the wreck, as part of an eight-ship convoy. Worldwide, "Kommuna" is the oldest active-duty navy ship still in service, at 110 years old and inherited from the Imperial Russian Navy. Due to the size of "Moskva" and that she sank in one piece, bringing her to the surface is thought to be impractical. The aim is likely to recover encryption material, weapons, bodies, and other sensitive material that foreign powers might be interested in. "Kommuna" is based with the Black Sea Fleet and sails from Sevastopol. Her presence at the wreck site would expose her to attack by Ukrainian forces. On 24 May, Ukrainian sources claimed that Russia had spent the previous two weeks removing bodies and classified equipment from the wreck of the "Moskva". According to Ukraine, five to seven ships were involved. On 30 June, Russia retreated from Snake Island, the island that "Moskva" had attacked together with "Vasily Bykov". The Ukrainian military set foot on Snake Island on 4 July and raised the Ukrainian flag over it. On 4 November, a Sevastopol court declared 17 of the missing sailors of the "Moskva" dead.
