Gardner Swamp Wildlife Area

The Gardner Swamp Wildlife Area is a tract of protected land located in Door County, Wisconsin, managed by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. Land to be used for the Wildlife Area was first acquired in 1958, and the master plan for the Wildlife Area was completed in 1980. Gardner Swamp The swamp for which the Wildlife Area is named after has several different types of land covering it. Land cover types include Upland Broad-leaved Deciduous Forest, Upland Grass, Open Wetland/Marsh, Shrub Wetland, and the most commonly found, Forested Wetland, which covers , or 38% of the entire Wildlife Area. When the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) began to consolidate parcels of the swamp into a , hunters and landowners in the area were supportive of the actions as the area would frequently flood due to beavers constructing dams along the Keyes Creek, a river that bisects the Wildlife Area. Flora and Fauna The above-mentioned river, Keyes Creek, in addition to bisecting the Wildlife Area, is also classified as a Class II Trout Stream, and is used as a spawning ground for Northern pike and White sucker. In addition to varied species of fish that can be found in Keyes Creek, the Wildlife Area is home to various waterfowl, deer, beaver, woodcock, shorebirds, and the occasional bald eagle. The Wildlife Area is also home to the critically endangered Hine's emerald dragonfly.

Kennedy House (Mobile, Alabama)

The Kennedy House (also Joshua Kennedy House or Kennedy-Cox House, and formerly known as Barnwell-Mitchell House) at 607 Government Street in Mobile, Alabama, was built by local landowner Joshua Kennedy, Jr in 1857. Description It is a stuccoed brick two storey townhouse with monumental columns at the front, bracketed eaves, and arched windows. The building was catalogued for the Historic American Building Survey of Alabama, HABS AL-800, and photographed by Jack Boucher; at the time the notes were typed for the survey, in 1979, the building was also called "Barnwell-Mitchell House". The HABS documentation described it thusly: Brick with stucco scored to simulate ashlar, rectangular (three-bay front) with long offset rear wing, two stories, gable roof with single cross-gable, wide bracketed eaves, full-height pedimented four-column portico reflecting transition between Classic Revival and Italianate, arched openings with hood molds, bay window on W side, L-shaped wooden gallery in rear; side hall plan, ornate interior woodwork, curved stair with statuary niche, denticulated plaster cornice; notable cast-iron fence. Built 1857 for wealthy local merchant; later Seamen's Bethel; American Legion headquarters since 1947; later addition to rear wing. Outstanding local example of late ante-bellum architectural eclecticism, 4 ext. photos (1963), 2 int. photos (1963). Joshua Kennedy (who died fighting for the Confederate Army near Richmond, Virginia in 1862.) and his descendants lived there until 1923, after which for two decades it was the Merchant Navy Club of the Seamen's Church Institute of Mobile (colloquially the "Seamen's Bethel"). It was renovated by the American Legion Post #3, which earned the Legion an award in 1950 from the Historic Mobile Preservation Society and the house a listing in the 1963 Historical American Buildings Survey, but had fallen into disrepair by 2012. Mobile's 1857 Foundation, with financial support from one of Mobile's mystic societies, renovated the house (for $2 million) in the 2010s; it reopened in 2020.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hotel%20Pasaje%2C%20Havana

Hotel Pasaje, Havana

The Hotel Pasaje was located on Paseo del Prado between San José and Dragones, facing the National Capitol. History Before the Havana walls were torn down, a partial map shows the site of the Villanueva railway the site of the National Capitol and the site of the Pasaje hotel before the plots were subdivided. The Hotel Pasaje was the oldest in the Las Murallas neighborhood. Located in block No. 14 of said urbanization, it was part of the construction of the area in the 1870s. Mr. Pedro Gutiérrez Castillo was the first private owner of all these plots, on October 9, 1874 he bought, for 250,000 pesetas, plots No. 6 and 7: Lot No. 6 located towards Prado Street and No. 7 towards Zulueta. Later, in that same year, it also acquired plots Nos. 4 and 5 of this block. Each of the portions measured 670 m. Villanueva Station and Campo de Marte in the early years of the 20th century. In the background, the buildings erected on the sites mentioned Villanueva Station and Campo de Marte in the early years of the 20th century. In the background, the buildings erected on the sites mentioned Despite the meticulous layout of the grounds, the hotel did not emerge as a single building but was the result of the addition of several farms and the incorporation of an existing passage in the block from earlier times. Added to this are the purchase and sale actions of said lots and the changes of owners. Thus, Emilio Reyling and Arcadio Sequeira are the ones who begin to manufacture independent buildings, but with some common uses and linked to the passage. Essential for the study of Las Murallas is the work of the historian Carlos Venegas Fornias The urbanization of the walls: dependency and modernity (1990), and for the Hotel Pasaje, the (unpublished) research by Patricia Andino Díaz Historical Study Sala Polivalente Kid Chocolate, former Hotel Pasaje (2015). In this last work, the previous presence of this opening in the block is revealed, when many might think that the hotel was built from the beginning with the same concept of commercial galleries crossing a block and that at the time they were very fashionable in Europe. . Andino similarly exposes the existence, in the National Archives of Cuba, of Book 99 of the Old Mortgage Registry, where it is detailed that lot No. 4 of block 14 was "crossed by the urban railway track whose translation is agreed to Central Street”, that is, Zulueta Street. Built in 1871, the Hotel Passage was the first building to be built in Cuba dedicated to the hotel industry. Up to that time, the usual thing was to adapt the existing buildings for this function. Gallery The name of the Hotel Pasajere received its name from the gallery that crossed the site of the building from the Prado to Calle Zulueta. The ceiling of this gallery was covered with glass, which facilitated the lighting of the commercial establishments that were established on both sides, The gallery made the hotel a popular place for Havanans of the time. Nationalization By the late 1950S, the Hotel Pasajet was still considered a fine hotel, however, it was no longer the exclusive establishment of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. From the 1920s until the end of the Republic, its clientele was made up of business travelers, budget-conscious visitors, and some families who rented rooms for long periods of time. However, the management managed to survive all the tourism crises in Cuba and the Pasaje hotel continued to offer services uninterruptedly until its nationalization by the Cuban government after the triumph of the 1959 Revolution. The front of the Hotel Passage faced the Paseo del Prado; the rear went to Calle Zulueta, between the aforementioned roads and with access to both streets, ran a gallery or passage covered with an iron and glass structure and that accommodated several commercial and service establishments, among these are the publishing house “Flérida Galante”, of pornographic books. This passage gave the hotel its name. A few meters from the Central Park and next to the Payret theater, became one of the most representative urban places in Havana.

Old Town Hall, Loddon

The Old Town Hall is a former events venue in Bridge Street, Loddon, Norfolk, England. The structure, which is currently occupied for commercial use, is a grade II listed building. History In the mid-19th century, a group of local businessmen decided to form a company to raise funds for the erection of an events venue in the town: the site they selected on the west side of Bridge Street was owned by an individual, James Copeman, from whom they bought it for £30. The building was designed in the Jacobean style, built in red brick and was completed in time for the first court hearing on 10 August 1870. The design involved a symmetrical main frontage with three bays facing onto Bridge Street with the outer bays projected forward as pavilions; the central bay featured a round headed doorway flanked by banded pilasters supporting a modillioned canopy while the outer bays contained mullioned and transomed bay windows with ornate parapets above. All three bays were surmounted by Dutch gables containing oculli and, in the case of the outer bays, decorated with finials. Internally, the principal room was the main assembly hall. Petty session hearings were held in the building once a fortnight in the 19th century. The building was used for various public events including political meetings and, in March 1923, the first-class cricketer and local member of parliament, Michael Falcon, gave a speech there: Falcon lost his seat at the general election nine months later. During the Second World War, the building served as a civil defence report centre, as a recruiting post for ARP staff and as a first aid post; it also acted as an administration centre for children evacuated from London to families in the Norfolk area. After the war the use of the building as an events venue declined and it was sold for commercial use: the company that had originally developed it was wound up in the 1960s. Following local government re-organisation in 1974, the building also became the offices of the local parish council. By the early 21st century part of the building was in use as a tourist information centre, but it also accommodated a local hairdressing salon. A programme of works to convert three of its rooms into additional guest accommodation for an adjacent public house, The Swan, was completed in August 2017.

Taqueria Los Puñales is a queer-owned and operated Mexican restaurant in Portland, Oregon. Description Taqueria Los Puñales is a queer-owned and operated Mexican restaurant on Belmont Street southeast Portland's Sunnyside neighborhood. Named after a gay slur which the business' owners have reclaimed, Brooke Jackson-Glidden of Eater Portland has described Taqueria Los Puñales as "vocally and transparently queer", and Mey Rude of Out Traveler has called the restaurant "unapologetically queer". The Oregonian's Michael Russell has described the restaurant as "friendly" and "colorful". The interior features prints by queer Mexican artist Felix d'Eon, framed portraits of Mariah Carey, Verónica Castro, Gia Gunn, and Marsha P. Johnson, pennants, and photographs of RuPaul. The menu includes more than 20 taco options as well as adobada, barbacoa, chile rellenos, guisados, tinga, and house-made tortillas. Drink options include beer, cocktails, margaritas, agua fresca, and Jarritos. History Friends Brian Aster and David Madrigal opened the restaurant in June 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Branding and lettering were completed by trans indigenous artist Kennedy Barrera-Cruz and local lesbian artist Shelbee Smith, respectively. According to Out Traveler's Mey Rude, Taqueria Los Puñales is the first and only gay taqueria operating in North America, as of 2020. Sometimes staff distribute stickers which say "Gay Tacos". Reception In 2020, Katherine Chew Hamilton of Portland Monthly called the restaurant a "standout" of the year and wrote, "Taqueria Los Puñales makes some of the best tacos I've had in Portland—I particularly love the choripapas and the barbacoa." Tuck Woodstock and Hamilton included the taqueria in the magazine's 2021 overview of the city's "very best" tacos. Karen Brooks and Hamilton also included Taqueria Los Puñales in the magazine's 2022 list of the city's 50 best restaurants. Seiji Nanbu and Brooke Jackson-Glidden included the business in Eater Portland's 2021 list of "15 Outstanding Taco Spots in Portland". The duo said, "Los Puñales has easily become a staple taqueria in Portland... While the classic guisados here are great, the beauty of Los Puñales lies in the more unconventional fillings like the garlicky steak al pesto and fried Chile relleno." In 2021, Bill Oakley said Taqueria Los Puñales was his favorite taco restaurant in Portland.

Geesiena Jacoba "Sienie" Strikwerda (née van Klinken; 7 November 1921 – 23 June 2013) was a Dutch educator, feminist, and anti–nuclear weapons activist. She served as chairperson of the , the national committee against nuclear cruise missiles. On 29 October 1983, the committee organised a demonstration of 550,000 people which was the largest demonstration in the history of the Netherlands. In 1985, she offered Prime Minister Ruud Lubbers, a petition with 3.7 million signatures. She served in the Provincial Council of North Holland between 1991 and 1995.

In May 1940, she obtained her teaching degree with a specialisation in English. She worked as a nurse in the , a hospital in Amsterdam. In 1944, she met Pé Strikwerda and became pregnant. The couple later married, however she needed a note from her father for her release from the hospital, and it marked her beginning as a feminist. In 1946, Strikwerda joined the Nederlandse Christen Vrouwenbond (Dutch Christian Women Union). In the mid-1960s, she worked in the catechesis of the Dutch Reformed Church. In 1969, she started teaching religion and social history in high schools. In 1971, she became the Chairperson of the Nederlandse Christen Vrouwenbond, and served until 1976. During her tenure, she was an activist for abortion, birth control, and the acceptance of homosexuality. Anti-nuclear weapons activist In 1979, Strikwerda joined Vrouwen tegen Kernwapens (Women against Nuclear Weapons). On 6 December 1979, a demonstration of approximately 10,000 women was organised against the deployment of 48 nuclear cruise missiles in the Netherlands. The group marched to the Binnenhof, the seat of the States General of the Netherlands, and Strikwerda climbed on a vehicle to address the crowd. On 21 November 1981, a large demonstration against nuclear weapons was organised in Amsterdam. The demonstration was attended by 400,000 to 450,000 people, and was organised by the (Interdenominational Peace Council) in collaboration with political parties, unions, and peace groups.

There were no incidents, and only 16 arrests from a counter-demonstration. Prime Minister Ruud Lubbers announced on television that decisions were not made by the size of a demonstration, but by the majority in parliament. To further pressure the government, a petition was organised. In 1985, a petition with 3.7 million signatures was offered to Lubbers. Despite strong opposition against nuclear weapons, the government decided to place the cruise missiles, but with a two-year delay. In 1986, Strikwerda announced her retirement as chairperson effective 3 October. On 8 December 1987, the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty was signed which resulted in a cancellation of the cruise missiles in the Netherlands.

Mountain rainfall sustains numerous streams and alpine lakes. The northern slopes drain towards the Awash River, while the southern slopes are drained by headwater streams of the Shebelle River. Bale Mountains National Park lies south of the Arsi Mountains. The upper valley of the Shebelle River separates the Arsi Mountains from the Bale Mountains. Flora and fauna There are three main vegetation zones in the park, generally defined by altitude. Dry evergreen Afromontane forests predominate on the lower slopes, from 2843 to 3756 meters elevation. The dry evergreen forests are interspersed with areas of mixed plantations of native and exotic trees between 3181 and 3340 meters elevation. Subalpine vegetation, mostly heath shrubland dominated by the shrubs Erica arborea and Erica trimera, occurs above the tree line, from 3202 to 3985 meters elevation. Afro-alpine vegetation occurs at the highest elevations, from 3576 to 4008 meters. It made up mostly of grasses, herbs, shrubs, including species of Helichrysum and Alchemilla, interspersed with stands of the giant lobelia Lobelia rhynchopetalum, which is endemic to the Afro-alpine Ethiopian Highlands. Wildlife in the park includes the endangered mountain nyala (Tragelaphus buxtoni) and Ethiopian wolf (Canis simensis). The park is home to several rare and limited-range highland rodents, including the Ethiopian striped mouse (Mus imberbis), Nikolaus's mouse (Megadendromus nikolausi), black-clawed brush-furred rat (Lophuromys melanonyx), and Ethiopian forest brush-furred rat (Lophuromys chrysopus). Conservation and threats Threats to the park include excessive livestock grazing, human-caused fires, and wood collection.

Squatinactis

Squatinactis is a genus of extinct elasmobranch Chondrichthyes known from the Carboniferous aged Bear gulch limestone in Montana. This fish was discovered in 1974 by Richard lund. The type specimen, named CMNH 46133, consists of a brain case, poorly preserved jaws and gills, a pectoral fin, and a partial vertebral axis. This creatures most startling feature were its broad pectoral fins which resembled those of Stingrays and Angel sharks (Squatina). The holotype specimen has about 15 teeth in its jaw. This creature is named after the angel shark. Teeth found in Derbyshire, England have been tentatively identified as those belonging to S. caudispinatus. Classification Because of the bizarre nature of Squatinactis, it is somewhat difficult to classify. In the original study conducted in 1974, Lund noted that the teeth of this fish are Cladodont is design. This doesn't really help however, as the term ´´Cladodont´´ is used to describe most paleozoic Chondrichthyeans based on their teeth and not phylogeny (including Cladoselache, Ctenacanthus, and Dracopristis). This fish is currently classed within the Elasmobranchii, more specially in its own grouping, the Squatinactiformes. References Extinct fish Species described in 1974

Antonov AKS

The Antonov AKS was a Soviet proposed mother ship aircraft intended to carry the Tupolev OOS air-launch-to-orbit spaceplane. It was to consist of two Antonov An-225 fuselages connected by a conjoined wing. Design and development Designed in the 1980s, the AKS was a twin-fuselage design consisting of two An-225 fuselages, with the OOS to be carried under the raised center wing. Multiple engine configurations were proposed, ranging from 18 Progress D-18T turbofans to as many as 40 engines, with placements both above and below the wings. An alternative design for the AKS was to use entirely new fuselages, each with a single tail. The AKS was deemed unfeasible, and no prototypes were ever built.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerasimov%20doctrine

Gerasimov doctrine

The Gerasimov Doctrine, named for the Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces Valery Gerasimov, is a foreign policy doctrine, the development of which is attributed in the Western world to Russian economic blockade. The doctrine redefines the modern concept of interstate conflict and warfare puts it on a par with political, economic, informational, humanitarian and other non-military activities. The doctrine became known after its publication in February 2013 and the subsequent actions of Russia in relation to Ukraine, which fully coincide with the theses of this doctrine. According to a number of researchers, the key elements of the Gerasimov Doctrine underlie the concept of "". However, there are opinions, that hybrid warfare is alien to Russian military theory. History The appearance of the term "Gerasimov Doctrine" was preceded by the speech by Gerasimov before the Russian Academy of Military Sciences with a report on hybrid war in February 2013 and publication of the main theses of the report in the Gerasimov article "The value of science in anticipation" in the Military and Industrial Courier. This article was reprinted in the English-language magazine Military Review and subsequently quoted many times in the Western press. Doctrine The doctrine calls for a 4:1 ratio of non-military to military action. Military action Military measures of strategic deterrence Strategic deployment. Warfare. peacekeeping operations. Non-military actions Formation of coalitions and alliances. Political and diplomatic pressure. Economic sanctions Economic blockade Breakdown of diplomatic relations. Formation of political opposition. Action of opposition forces. Conversion of the economy of the country confronting Russia to the military rails. Finding ways to resolve the conflict. Changing the political leadership of the country confronting Russia. Implementation of a set of measures to reduce tensions in relations after the change of political leadership. In addition, the doctrine assumes "information confrontation," without specifying whether these activities are military or non-military. Evaluation of the doctrine by experts The Gerasimov doctrine is a response to the "Color Revolutions" doctrine, particularly the events of the Arab Spring. According to some experts, its key elements are based on the historical roots of Russia's previous military doctrine and show a striking similarity to the provisions of China's "unlimited war" doctrine, published in 1999. It is believed that this doctrine can be seen as a reinterpretation in the realities of the 21st century of the well-known concept of unconventional warfare, which in modern Russian military terminology are called "nonlinear". Within this framework, the main goal of "nonlinear warfare" is to achieve the desired strategic and geopolitical results, using a wide toolbox of non-military methods and means: explicit and covert diplomacy, economic pressure, winning the sympathy of the local population, etc. According to the U.S. military, the "Gerasimov Doctrine" represents the most complete embodiment of the latest achievements of Russian military thought in a new type of warfare, which demonstrates the unprecedented integration of all capabilities of national influence to achieve strategic advantages. Based on the discreteness of the idea of war, which was established in Russian culture by Leo Tolstoy's classic novel War and Peace, the Gerasimov doctrine has blurred the lines between the polarized states of "war" and "peace," introducing a kind of analog to the Western idea of an intermediate continuum or "gray zone. American analysts point out that the Russian military's use of the new developments surprisingly inverts some of the fundamental paradigms of armed confrontation that were laid down in the works of Carl von Clausewitz and have been considered immutable for centuries. For example, Clausewitz's definition of war as a "continuation of politics, but by other means" no longer applies in the "Gerasimov doctrine" because it does not consider war as a continuation of politics, but politics as a continuation of war, emphasizing that the effective conduct of politics may involve a broader arsenal of non-military means and methods. Similarly, the Gerasimov Doctrine forces a reconsideration of several other important tenets, such as Clausewitz's military-theoretical understanding of the "center of gravity" as a key point of effort. Western experts were particularly concerned by the apparent focus of the Russian "Gerasimov doctrine" on exploiting the weak links of the Western principle of managerial decision making, which is based on a system of checks and balances that implies exhaustive analysis of the situation, lengthy public discussion and extensive coordination of the efforts of various agencies (the State Department, the Department of Defense, etc.). In contrast, the Russian model of governance, based on Gerasimov's ideas, seamlessly combines all the authoritative institutions, making coordination between them completely unencumbered. Moreover, their functioning is hidden from the outside observer by an impenetrable veil of secrecy, and the available tools use the applied achievements of , which allows the Russian authorities to act rigidly, flexibly and quickly, not particularly distracted by such conventions as legality, legitimacy, etc.. Application of the doctrine Given the release date of the Gerasimov report and Russia's subsequent actions, many experts are inclined to link these events and directly point to Russia's use of the doctrine against Ukraine and the USA. Criticism Some experts believe that Gerasimov did not present anything new, and doubt the existence of such a doctrine. For example, Roger McDermott, an expert on the armed forces of the former Soviet Union, points out in the specialized journal Parameters that Gerasimov deliberately ignores the factors that conceptually unite the various wars and armed conflicts, emphasizing that each has its own history and unique path of development.. As R. McDermott writes, the denial in the context of Gerasimov's ideas of a generalizing model that could be perceived as a holistic doctrine is more than compensated for by the meanings attributed to his statements by Western specialists. According to R. McDermott, myths about the emergence of Russia's latest and deadliest hybrid warfare doctrine are one of the most dangerous aspects of the confrontation between Russia and NATO. Political scientist Mark Galeotti stated in an article for Foreign Policy that the famous "Gerasimov doctrine," which is understood in the West as an "expanded theory of modern warfare" or even "a vision of total war," does not exist in reality, and that he himself is the inventor of this term.

Brood XXI

Brood XXI (also known as the Floridian Brood) was a brood of 13-year periodical cicadas that inhabited the Florida Panhandle and the area around the Alabama–Mississippi border. It was last seen in 1870 and is presumed extinct. Lifecycle and history Like other 13-year Magicicada, Brood XXI cicadas would tunnel to the surface of the ground in massive numbers during late-April to early-June of emergence years. After emerging, the nymphs would molt to become adult cicadas, mate, lay eggs, and then die off over the course of a few weeks. Once the eggs hatched, the nymphs would burrow back underground around tree roots to grow and develop for 13 years, thus completing the cycle. The extreme and sudden population explosion of adult Brood XXI cicadas was likely a form of predator satiation, a tactic utilized by extant periodical cicada broods. Brood XXI was only one of four 13-year broods prior to extinction. The surviving three are Brood XIX (the "Great Southern Brood"), Brood XXII (the "Baton Rouge Brood"), and Brood XXIII (the "Mississippi Valley Brood"). References Cicadas

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl%20Grosse

Carl Grosse

Carl Friedrich August Grosse (5 June 1768 – 15 March 1847) also known as Edouard Romeo Vargas-Bedemar was a German author, translator, aesthetic philosopher, and mineralogist. He is best known for his gothic novel Der Genius, which was translated into English by Peter Will as Horrid Mysteries, subtitled "A Story From the German Of The Marquis Of Grosse" and subsequently referenced by Jane Austen as one of the seven 'horrid novels' in Northanger Abbey. His philosophy focused on the aesthetics of sublimity, following the work of Friedrich Schiller, and provided one of the first philosophical treatments of imagination. Biography Grosse was born in Magdeburg, Germany on 5 June 1768, the son of Erenst Grosse, a successful doctor, and Dorothea Elizabeth Amalia Schröder. In 1786, he enrolled at the University of Göttingen to study medicine, and began his literary career there with essays on the sublime and transmigration of the soul, as well as engaging in translation of works by Scottish moral philosopher and poet James Beattie. He transferred to the University of Halle in late 1788, where he joined secret societies. Afterwards, he travelled to Italy and Switzerland, and returned to Göttingen sporting the cross of the Knights of Malta, claiming to have inherited a title "Marquis Grosse of Vargas" from a deceased Italian aristocratic wife, a claim quickly exposed as a fraud which forced him to leave Göttingen for Spain in 1791. Grosse spent two years in Spain, attacking in writing Göttingen's academic society for rejecting him. In 1793 he moved to Italy, claiming to be Edouard Romeo, count of Vargas, a falsified title to which he added Baron Bedemar in 1795. He lived in Italy until 1808, when he was accused of political conspiracy. He was again forced to move, and settled in Denmark, where he became friends with the future King of Denmark Christian VIII and was entrusted by the Danish government with several high offices. Grosse also served some time in the Austrian military as an officer. While in Denmark, he made a reputation as a mineralogist and mining expert. Respected as a geologist, he joined several Danish scientific societies and went on study trips to the Faroe Islands, Scotland, Scandinavia, Russia, the Azores, and the Canary Islands. For most of his life, Grosse lived using the name Edouard Romeo Vargas, and published the majority of his works using it. He invented a fake family for himself: father Carl Emmanuel von Vargas, mother Elizabeth Murray (who he claimed was of old Scottish ancestry), and sister Rosalia von Spreti. Grosse's fiancée Luise Michaelis described him as "mysterious, impressive, and frightening" and ultimately did not end up marrying him. Grosse died on 15 March 1847 in Copenhagen. Philosophy Grosse was a philosopher of sublimity, contemporaneous with and strongly influenced by Friedrich Schiller. Grosse was a proponent of hearing as the sense best suited to the sublime, rather than the typically privileged sight. He wrote that the ear is "most suited to an indefinite Schwärmerei of imagination." He also theorized that distance of sound (which he called "entfernung" had a key role in producing sublime experiences, writing "A soft music heard from afar is far more stirring than if heard in the concert hall; and the wavering tones of the distant [entfernung] set off the power of imagination into the realm of scattered images." Grosse applied gothic landscape traditions to the mind, where psychological responses are framed in terms of physical spaces of light and dark. According to Grosse, the imagination turns passive emotional sublimity into an active emotional without any moral evaluation, a philosophical stance that anticipated amoralism and was one of the earliest attempts at a theory of imagination. Influence Grosse's literature was an influence on German romantic writers, including Ludwig Tieck and E. T. A. Hoffman. Though Tieck was strongly influenced by Grosse and incorporated his themes and ideas in his work, he also criticized Grosse, calling him "a gracious, imaginative, and sensitive sort of person, only he lacks and will always lack power and depth." In entitling a philosophical treatise, Grosse took Schiller's title Über das Erhabene, which was subsequently reused by Tieck in 1792 and again by Grosse and Schiller in 1801. Through Über das Erhabene, Grosse took ideas of Edmund Burke, James Beattie, and Johann Georg Schlosser, and was alongside Schiller's Von Erhabenen, introduced a British aesthetic sublimity to the German philosophical scene, which to that moment had been dominated by French-originated moral sublimity. Der Genius was loosely translated into English by Peter Will and entitled Horrid Mysteries. Printed by Minerva Press, the book became well known to an English audience and was included by Jane Austen among seven 'horrid' novels in Northanger Abbey, alongside The Necromancer by Karl Friedrich Kahlert, The Castle of Wolfenbach by Eliza Parsons, Clermont by Regina Maria Roche, The Mysterious Warning, a German Tale, by Eliza Parsons, The Midnight Bell by Francis Lathom, and The Orphan of the Rhine by Eleanor Sleath. The book was favoured by early English romantics. However, it was forgotten in the ensuing decades and all seven books were assumed to be fictitious inventions of Austen. Horrid Mysteries was the first to be re-found, by English author and collector Michael Sadleir, who encountered it alongside Roche's Children of the Abbey in 1922 at a bookstore on Oxford Street, London.

Baker-Gorbachev Pact

The Baker-Gorbachev Pact between the then Secretary of State of the United States, James Baker, and the General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev was a commitment reached in February 1990 by these countries in the context of German reunification according to which a unified Germany may enter NATO while the alliance would not expand to any other country of the Eastern Bloc. The existence of this pact of was always defended by Soviet general secretary Gorbachev on numerous occasions and by historians such as Mary Elise Sarotte, while there has been a debate on if this agreement was verbal or written. Several declassified memorandums and documents both Soviet and from the United States reflect the existence of these negotiations during 9 February 1990. The following day Federal German Chancellor Helmut Kohl joined the negotiations in Moscow. The agreements were an important step towards the consensus of the two superpowers (the U.S. and the Soviet Union) on German reunification and allowed for the subsequent signing of the Two Plus Four Agreement which paved the way for German unification. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union NATO would eventually expand to fourteen countries (including Germany) in the period from 1990 to 2017 rendering the rest of the agreement worthless. Compliance with the agreements was one of the pretexts used by Vladimir Putin, President of Russia in 2022, to demand a legal ban on Ukraine joining NATO. The agreement The process of fall of the Berlin Wall, the German reunification and the collapse of the communist governments (1989-1991) brought enormous changes in the countries of the Eastern Bloc -then allies of Russia or part of the Soviet Union- altering the geopolitical balance of alliances and power in Europe. On February 9, 1990, during the process of German reunification, the Secretary of State of the United States, John Baker, visited the then General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev and his Minister of foreign affairs Eduard Shevardnadze, and a day later, there was also the visit of the Chancellor of Federal Germany Helmut Kohl. The goal was to appease the Soviets by including a unified Germany in the Western orbit. Gorbachev went so far as to propose a pan-European security structure, including Russia's entry into NATO. Baker considered this pan-European idea "a dream" unattainable. Baker and Kohl convinced Gorbachev that a unified Germany would join NATO, which would be better than an independent but militarized Germany, while promising no further expansion of the alliance to the east. Baker assured Gorbachev on February 9, 1990: 'We understand the need for assurances to the countries in the East. If we maintain a presence in a Germany that is a part of NATO, there would be no extension of NATO's jurisdiction for forces of NATO one inch to the east'. Gorvachec was very clear to Baker: 'Such an expansion would be “unacceptable”. Result After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 and the Gulf War the world order was completely altered. NATO ended up expanding to fourteen Eastern countries (former GDR in 1990, Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland in 1999; Bulgaria, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia in 2005; Albania, Croatia in 2009 and Montenegro in 2017), some of them on the border with Russia. The agreements were again the subject of public debate in 2022 on the occasion of the 2021–2022 Russo-Ukrainian crisis, during which the Russian President Vladimir Putin demanded compliance with the 1990 agreement to Gorbachev and the legal ban on Ukraine joining NATO, which both Ukraine and NATO refused. The crisis ultimately led to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Navarch (Sparta)

The navarch () was the magistrate who commanded the fleet in Ancient Sparta. History and role The powers of the navarch were extensive and were not subordinate to the two Spartan kings. The navarch commanded the fleet, but also performed the sacrifices, distributed wages and booty, negotiated with foreign states, and even administered the territories he captured. Aristotle therefore described the navarchy as another kingship. An ambitious man such as Lysander yielded formidable influence in Sparta through his time as navarch at the end of the Peloponnesian War. The office is mentioned for the first time by Herodotus in 480 during the Persian Wars, but it was likely created earlier, perhaps in 512 for the first attack of Sparta against Athens by Anchimolus, likely the first navarch. It seems the navarchy disappeared after the catastrophic defeat of Leuctra in 371. In the beginning the office was probably irregular, and probably that no navarch was appointed for most of the Pentecontaetia (479–431), as the Spartans did not launch any navy during this period. Following the defeat of the Spartan navy at Cyzicus in 410, a law was passed an established fixed terms from spring to spring. In about 400 another law forbade iteration of the office, but repetition was apparently allowed, since Teleutias was probably navarch three times. This law could furthermore be bypassed by appointing a secretary (, )—in effect vice-admiral—to the navarch; the influential Lysander therefore became secretary twice. The navarchs were elected for one year by the Spartan assembly, supervised by the ephors. One exception took place in 395, when the king Agesilaus II was granted the privilege to appoint the navarch.

Ochrolechia minuta

Ochrolechia minuta is a species of crustose lichen in the family Ochrolechiaceae. It was first formally described in 1938 by Swedish lichenologist Gunnar Degelius as Perforaria minuta. The type specimen was collected from the Kodiak Island Borough in Alaska. Toby Spribille transferred it to the genus Ochrolechia in 2020, suggesting that the absence of cephalodia, and the presence of alectoronic acid, indicate that it is "related to the alectoronic acid-containing species of poriform Ochrolechia".

Henry Eugène Pottier (21 February 1912 – 7 September 2000), often erroneously written as Henri Pottier, was a French architect. A disciple of Victor Laloux, he won a Prix de Rome in 1944. As it was customary to fill the position of Architecte en chef des bâtiments civils et palais nationaux (English: Chief Architect of Civilian Buildings and National Palaces) from among recipients of the award, Pottier ascended to the function in 1968. An adherent to the Athens Charter, he is perhaps best known to the general public as the chief architect of the Front de Seine, a major 1970s redevelopment in the 15th arrondissement of Paris, and several entertainment facilities in the Principality of Monaco, for whose government he was a consulting architect. He designed many public buildings, first in his native Eure, then in the Paris region during the 1960s and 1970s.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American%20Innovation%20and%20Choice%20Online%20Act

American Innovation and Choice Online Act

The American Innovation and Choice Online (AICO) is a proposed antitrust bill in the United States Congress. The legislation was introduced by David Cicilline (D-RI) as H.R. 3816 in the House of Representatives on June 11, 2021. On October 14, 2021, companion legislation in the Senate was introduced by Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) and Chuck Grassley (R-IA) as S.2992. The legislation aims to prevent Big Tech companies from "self-preferencing" their own products at the expense of competitors. Under AICO, covered platforms would be forbidden from disadvantaging other companies' products or services. The legislation would also prohibit covered platforms from using non-public data collected from business users to unfairly advantage the platforms' own products. On June 24, 2022, the House Committee on the Judiciary advanced H.R. 3816 on a 24–20 vote. On January 20, 2022, the Senate Committee on the Judiciary voted to advance the legislation in a 16–6 vote. Background Following a sixteen-month investigation, the House Committee on the Judiciary released a 450-page report in 2020 alleging that Big Tech companies have engaged in anti-competitive conduct. According to Cicilline, both AICO and five accompanying pieces of antirust legislation approved by the House Committee on the Judiciary in June 2024 were borne out of the report's findings. Provisions Under the House legislation (H.R. 3816), AICO would forbid covered platforms from: "Self-preferencing" their own products at the expense of competitors Intentionally disadvantaging other firms' products or services Using non-public data generated by a business user to advantage the covered platform's own products Interfering with pricing decisions set by another business user The legislation would also prohibit covered platforms from retaliating against a business user that notifies law enforcement about the activities of covered platforms. If passed, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Department of Justice (DOJ) would be responsible for determining which platforms are "covered platforms" subject to AICO, and would be tasked with enforcement of the law. Penalties H.R. 3816 specifies penalties for covered platforms that violate AICO. Failure to comply with the law would result in fining the offending platform up to 15% of their U.S. revenue in the prior calendar year or up to 30% of their U.S. revenue for any one line of business harmed by their actions. Violation of AICO would additionally result in restitution as well as disgorgement. Companies affected If enacted, only companies with 50 million or more monthly users in the U.S. and a market capitalization of at least $600 billion would be governed by the provisions of AICO. According to reporting by Axios, AICO would prevent Apple and Google's Android from setting "prices and policies for their app stores that rivals have complained make them lose business and revenue". The legislation also aims to prevent Amazon from "self-preferencing" their own products at the expense of those sold by third parties. Impact on cybersecurity According to Richard Stiennon, the chief research analyst at cybersecurity company IT-Harvest, AICO would not prevent covered platforms from investing in cybersecurity measures. Stiennon noted that Google would be able to block phishing efforts on Gmail, and would similarly be permitted to continue scanning apps submitted to its Google Play store. Legislative history House of Representatives H.R. 3816 was introduced by Cicilline on June 11, 2021, with fellow Democrat Jerry Nadler (D-NY) and Republicans Ken Buck (R-CO) and Lance Gooden (R-TX) as original cosponsors. On June 24, 2022, the House Committee on the Judiciary voted to advance the legislation in a 24–20 vote. The legislation has not received a floor vote in the full House of Representatives. Senate S.2992 was introduced as a companion bill to H.R. 3816 by Klobuchar and Grassley on October 14, 2021. On January 20, 2022, the Senate Committee on the Judiciary voted in favor of advancing the legislation in a 16–6 bipartisan vote.

Reuben Merrill

Captain Reuben Merrill (December 2, 1818 – June 16, 1875) was an American merchant sea captain. A native of Cumberland, Maine, he lived the latter part of his life in nearby Yarmouth. His house there, now known as the Captain Reuben Merrill House, was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. Early life Reuben Merrill was born on December 2, 1818, in Cumberland, Maine. Career Merrill was a leading mid-19th-century sea captain. After going to sea in his youth, he gained experience enough to become a master mariner. He was captain of the merchant ships Cumberland, Yarmouth, Esther and Champlain. Champlain Merrill's ship, Champlain, was built for W. H. Kinsman & Company in East Boston, Massachusetts, in 1874 by Campbell & Brooks. It registered . Its builders "firmly believed that she would prove to be the fastest vessel that ever wore canvas". While at the dock, Merrill noticed three martingales and guessed, correctly, that the largest of them was bound for his vessel. Believing it was too small for Champlain, he requested a larger version. One was, indeed, made larger and heavier to suit Merrill. Personal life On October 1, 1846, Merrill married Hannah Elizabeth Blanchard, with whom he had four children: Elizabeth (died in infancy in 1847), Osborne, Eva and Ferdinand. In the 1850s, when Merrill's seafaring career was its peak, he commissioned noted Portland architect Thomas J. Sparrow, to build him a home. The result was the building at today's 233 West Main Street, completed in 1858. (The home's address at the time of its listing was 97 West Main Street.) Death Merrill died on June 16, 1875, when he was knocked overboard from his ship, Champlain, while shipwrecking in the Farallon Islands, California, off San Francisco, in dense fog. He had made sure that his crew was safely aboard the lifeboat, and as he was preparing to join them, he was struck by the martingale that he had personally requested by the ship's builders the previous year. The ship was near the end of its voyage from New York to the California coast. He drowned, aged 56, and neither his body nor the cargo ($210,000 in value) were ever recovered. He has an epitaph on his wife's headstone in Yarmouth's Riverside Cemetery. She died the year following her husband's death. His eldest son and the ship's first mate, 26-year-old Osborne, witnessed his father's death. He lived until 1929, but did not go to sea again. He is also interred in Yarmouth's Riverside Cemetery.

Shlomo ben Afeda Ha-Kohen

Shlomo ben Afeda Ha-Kohen or Solomon Afeda Cohen (in ) (1826 in Constantinople – 1893 in Constantinople) was a Karaite Jewish hakham of the nineteenth century considered the last of the Karaite sages of Constantinople. He is famous for his two abridgements of Elijah Bashyazi's masterpiece "Aderet Eliyahu" (The Mantle of Elijah): Sefer Gefen Ha-Adderet composed in 1860 and Sefer Yeriot Shelomoh composed in 1862. Solomon Cohen proposed shortening the prayers of the Karaite festivals with the aim to attract more Karaites to the temple (Knessa). He also worked as a scribe. Biography His biography has been reported by Abraham Danon in 1925. Solomon (ben Eliezer Afeda) Cohen, was born in Constantinople in 1826 (5586 in the Hebrew calendar), of a family that emigrated from Damascus ( Syria) after the dispersion of the Karaite community of the city. He learned to read and write in the small communal school from a teacher whose knowledge did not go beyond reading and he left school at a young age. Driven by the love of Jewish studies, he returned to student life under the supervision of his uncle Isaac Cohen who was a hakham. After that, Solomon Cohen did not have recourse to any teacher but studied by himself all the works of the Karaite authors, both printed and manuscript, as well as the works of the Jews of Spain, which he said were "truly inspired by God". In 1860 and 1862, he wrote his most famous works on the Karaite Halakhah. Having given up his small business to devote himself definitively to his literary career, he was appointed head of the community of the Constantinopolitan Karaites, as well as officiating minister and teacher. His temperament characterized by a deep melancholy, led to arouse against him the animosity of the local community. Considering his position untenable in Constantinople, he was forced to resign in 1870 and was replaced by Sabbatai Mengoubi (born about 1835). The following year he left for Cairo ( Egypt), where he was appointed head of the local Karaite community, and remained there until 1874. His successor, Sabbatai Mengoubi, resigned from his post in Constantinople and went to Cairo to take his place. Solomon Cohen then returned to Constantinople and was again appointed head of the community there (1874–81). Family Solomon Cohen was the son of Eliezer Afeda Yerushalmi Kohen who died from the Plague in Constantinople in 1873.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jane%20Cakebread

Jane Cakebread

Jane Cakebread (1829/1830 – 17 December 1898) was a 19th-century British domestic worker and inebriate who, according to official records, was convicted 281 times for drunkenness. Nearly every court in London and its vicinity had a record of her conduct and acts. It was these records of continuous arrest and sentence that started England, her case focusing public attention on the ineffectiveness of the short-term imprisonment policy of dealing with drunkenness. The Inebriates Act 1898 was directly due to her and similar cases. Early life and education Jane Cakebread was born in Sawbridgeworth in the English county of Hertfordshire in 1827 or 1828. She was the eldest child of Susan and James Cakebread. Her father was a carter and carpenter from Clavering, Essex. Her father died at 71 years of age in 1852, and her mother at 62 years in 1863. The Cakebreads were a family of five sons and three daughters and she had very little schooling. Career Cakebread became what she called a "single-handed parlour maid". In 1861 she was employed by Charles Friend Hardy who worked at the London Stock Exchange. She memorised chapters of the Bible, including one from the Book of Job concerning the uncertainty of human life. While in service, it was said that her employers left her a legacy of . She did no work after that. If true, then she either wasted it or got robbed of it. Then began her life of inebriety and her first appearances in London police courts charged with being "drunk and disorderly". "Miss Cakebread", as she loved to call herself, or "Jane", as she was known on the streets, was molested and baited for sport by boys in the street. She was adopted by Thomas Holmes who was employed by the courts as their missionary. Street life For more than fifteen years, Cakebread was a familiar figure at Worship Street, Clerkenwell, and subsequently at North London police courts. Magistrates found her amusing and she was usually dealt with leniently. She said "it was quite a pleasure to appear before a Metropolitan Police Magistrate". She was happy to be "reported" and she enjoyed being known to local police officers. One of her joys was to read about herself being reported. She was a frequest visitor to Millbank Prison up to 1890. When Millbank closed, females were received into Holloway Prison. Philanthropists tried to improve her life style and she took advantage of it. During the great frost of 1895, for nine weeks, Cakebread slept out doors using a bed made from a bundle of sticks, and she washed in the River Lea. Lady Henry Somerset opened a Farm Colony and Children's Home at Duxhurst, Reigate in 1899 to rehabilitate alcoholics as part of the temperance movement. She brought Cakebread there to dry out, but Cakebread complained she was "buried alive". Lady Henry found Cakebread to be quarrelsome and spiteful, and she allowed her back to London after three months. Cakebread returned to sleeping on Stamford Hill, begging and inebriation. When she was arrested on January 21, 1896, she was remanded to Holloway Sanatorium where she was declared insane. Claybury Asylum On January 31, 1896, Cakebread, stated to be 62, but whose real age was older, was admitted into Claybury Asylum from the Hackney Workhouse, having been previously in Holloway Prison. While nominally a servant, was in reality a vagrant who had not been self-supporting for at least 30 years. She was found to be vague and disconnected, believing herself to be a "lady of high character," entitled to a fortune, a portion of which had been stolen from her. Her appearance was striking; her manner was at times gracious and condescending. She was physically well except for incipient cataract. She would promise to be well behaved and then suddenly become abusive, violent and threatening. Cakebread wrote letters about living in a beautiful country cottage, where the birds sang, the trees gave a shade, and the breeze blew. But as time went by, she became more noisy, more flagrantly untruthful, less and less amenable to discipline, and more inordinately fond of notice. She would put up her hair in curl-papers, decorate herself with bits of ribbon and lace to impress the doctors on their rounds. A desire for prominence amounting to a disease, she was wholly indifferent and indiscriminating as to the personality of her audience. It was accompanied by jealousy, distrust of the nurses, who she thought injured her, and by violent outbursts of anger when the praise for which she longed was not forthcoming. Believing herself a grand lady, she constituted herself a supervisor of the patients in the hospital, a conceit in which she was humored by the attendants. Despite her high opinion of herself, Cakebread had no selfconfidence. She depended almost entirely upon the opinions of others, and this was the cause of her lack of self-control, her fickleness and vacillation. She was considered by many eminently religious. She was absolutely untruthful, but this was due to defective memory, a pathological condition induced by alcohol. At the end of a year, she was unchanged in regard to the want of self-control. At the end of two years, there was no improvement. At the end of three years, she appeared to be more demented, and there was a total collapse. Cakebread died at Claybury Asylum, 17 December 1898, of heart failure and dropsy, with cirrhosis of the liver and kidneys.

Northern Ireland Department of the Home Office

Before partition, Ireland was governed through the Dublin Castle administration and the Home Office was also responsible for Irish affairs. From 1924 to 1972, Northern Ireland affairs were handled by the Northern Ireland Department of the Home Office. In August 1969, for example, Home Secretary James Callaghan approved the sending of British Army soldiers to Northern Ireland. As the Troubles worsened, the UK Government was increasingly concerned that the Northern Ireland Government (at Stormont) was losing control of the situation. On 24 March 1972, it announced that direct rule from Westminster would be introduced. This took effect on 30 March 1972. The Northern Ireland Office was then created.

Asad Noor

Asaduzzaman Noor (born 08 August 1991 in Bangladesh) better known as Asad Noor, is an exiled Bangladeshi blogger, human rights defender, and online activist. Noor is known for advocating freedom of expression, LGBT rights, and criticizing religious fundamentalism in Bangladesh. He has been subject to multiple persecutions and charges filed by the Bangladeshi authorities for "offensive comments about Islam". He is accused of "spreading rumors and defaming Islam on Facebook." He fled the country in discreet in February 2019, and is reported to living in India. Life Noor was born on 08 August 1991 in the Muksudpur Upazila of the Gopalganj district in Bangladesh. He began his blogging career in 2013, being involved in solidarity with the Shahbag movements. He began receiving death threats from fundamentalists from 2015, regarding his online activism. On 26 December 2017, Noor was arrested at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka, in response to a lawsuit filed by an Islamic religious clergy for sharing content on social media that hurt "religious sentiments." He was later charged with defamation of religion under the 2013 Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Act on 11 January 2018. He was released on bail on 16 August 2018. He was captured by the military intelligence on 11 September of that same year, as an Islamic Advocacy group of madrassah teachers and students urged for his imprisonment. On 13 July 2020, Noor published several video blogs condemning the intimidation of Bangladesh's minority Buddhist community in Rangunia Upazila of the Chittagong District. Consequently, a local Awami League leader filed a lawsuit against Noor on July 14 2020 under the Digital Security Act, with the charges of "hurting religious sentiments" and "running propaganda against the spirit of the liberation war." One of Noor's video blogs presented the alleged vandalism of an under-construction Buddhist statue of a Buddhist monastery in Rangunia. Noor claimed the attackers were backed by forest officials and the local AL MP, because they conspired to banish the monks from the area. Following Noor's release of his videos, local Islamic groups protested against the blogger and accused him of undermining religious harmony between Muslims and Buddhists. On July 18, 2020, Noor's family members, including his elderly parents were detained by the police for 48 hours. Reactions Upon his arrest by the Bangladeshi authorities in 2017, PEN America urged for his immediate release from prison. In remarks to his family's detention, Amnesty International’s South Asia Researcher Sultan Mohammed Zakaria stated “The harassment of Asad’s family is not an isolated incident. It is part of a worrying pattern targeting families of human rights defenders in exile.” Regarding his persecutions by the Bangladeshi authorities, the United Nations special Rapporteur on Freedom of Religion Mr.Ahmed Shaheed said “We express grave concern at the alleged persecution and prosecution of Mr. Noor, for the exercise of his human rights to freedom of thought, conscience, religion or belief, opinion and expression.” In August 2020, Humanist International urged the Bangladesh police to drop all the charges against Noor. In 2021, during a General Debate at the 46th Session of the United Nations Human Rights Council, Humanists International's Advocacy Officer Lillie Ashworth raised the issue of Asad Noor's persecution and demanded justice for him. She also expressed her concerns about the detention of Noor’s family members by Bangladeshi law enforcement agencies, and urged Bangladeshi authorities to practice its "moral and legal obligation" to protect the "rights of human rights activists."

Lillian B. Miller

Lillian B. Miller (1923–1997) was an American art historian who served as historian of American culture at the National Portrait Gallery. She was known for her work studying Charles Willson Peale and his family. Biography Lillian Beresnack was born in 1923 in Boston to Lithuanian immigrant parents. She was the daughter of a butcher. As a child, her passion was literature. She attended Dorchester High School for Girls. Beresnack then matriculated to Radcliffe College, becoming the first member of her family to attend college. She commuted from the Mattapan neighborhood of Boston and worked as a secretary. She graduated Radcliffe in 1943 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in American history and literature. She then attended Columbia University as a graduate student, where she worked as a secretary to historian Jacques Barzun and literary professor Lionel Trilling. She ultimately received an A.M. and a Ph.D. in American history from Columbia. When Mary McCarthy left her teaching job at Bard College in 1947, Barzun and Trilling recommended Beresnack as a replacement, and she ultimately taught there for three years. In 1948, she married Nathan Miller, an economics historian whom she met in a seminar on American history. In the 1950s, the Millers were living in Manhattan and having children. Miller was rejected for a American Association of University Women fellowship because she was pregnant. In 1960, both Millers went to work at University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee, where the university abandoned a nepotism rule to allow them to teach in the same history department. In the late 1960s, Miller published her dissertation, "Patrons and Patriotism: The Encouragement of Fine Arts in the United States: 1790–1860". This ultimately led to her getting a job as historian of the Smithsonian Institute's National Portrait Gallery in 1971. The Millers thus moved to Bethesda, Maryland; her husband, who maintained his professor post at UWM, commuted to Milwaukee. In 1981, she took a professor job at the Rochester Institute of Technology while maintaining her position at the Smithsonian. Miller died on November 27, 1997, of a cerebral hemorrhage at Georgetown University Hospital in Washington, D.C.

La pasajera

La pasajera () is a 2021 Spanish science-fiction comedy horror road movie directed by Raúl Cerezo and Fernando González Gómez which stars Ramiro Blas, Cecilia Suárez, Paula Gallego and Cristina Alcázar. Plot Four people with different backgrounds (a skeevy driver, a religious Mexican, and a posh woman with her wayward teen daughter) coincide on a van trip across empty Spain. They enter in contact with an extraterrestrial entity, which possesses women and chops off the head of men. Cast Production The screenplay was penned by Luis Sánchez-Polack based on a previous screenplay by Javier Echániz and Asier Guerricaechebarría. La pasajera is a Persons Films, La Dalia Films, SG Producciones and Eye Slice Pictures production, and it had support from Gobierno de Navarra and Navarra Film Office. It was fully shot in Navarre. Release The film screened at the Sitges Film Festival on 9 October 2021. Distributed by Karma Films, it was theatrically released in Spain on 18 February 2022. Reception Miguel Ángel Romero of Cinemanía gave the film 2 out of 5 stars considering that the film, blending B movie exploitation and Spanish costumbrismo, features comedy moments alongside a great deal of cringe. Beatriz Martínez of El Periódico de Catalunya also rated it with 2 out of 5 stars, considering that although the film achieves a personality of its own, the special effects do their job, and the film displays a "not negligible" visual imagination, there is something unsettling lurking throughout the film, namely the ambiguity towards machismo. Pablo Tocino of Mondosonoro scored 7 out of 10 points, considering that while Cristina Alcázar and Cecilia Suárez' performances are more than adequate, those of Ramiro Blas and Paula Gallego stand out in particular.

Needy Streamer Overload

Needy Streamer Overload is a 2022 denpa-themed adventure visual novel for Microsoft Windows, developed by xemono and published by WSS playground. The player takes on the role of a manager for a female livestreamer, making decisions for her so that she can achieve her goal of reaching one million followers within a month. The game was released under the title Needy Girl Overdose in Japan. Setting is a mentally-ill young girl with a needy personality, who has dropped out of school and has confined herself at home, living together with the self-insert player protagonist. In order to pay for rent, in addition to meeting her parasocial attention needs, Ame decides to commence livestreaming on the internet, where she takes on the persona of , or for short, interacting with her stream viewers as she dons her wig and makeup. The protagonist, affectionally called , is tasked with managing her day-to-day life as she increases her follower count. Gameplay The player interacts with Ame exclusively through a pastel-themed Windows 95-esque user interface, selecting her daily tasks via desktop icons, monitoring her stats via the Task Manager, and conversing with her through an instant messenger service called JINE. Each day is divided into noon, dusk and evening timeslots, and various actions can take up one or multiple of these timeslots; Ame can only livestream during the evening, as that is the time of day where stream viewers are most active. During Ame's livestreams, the player takes on the role of a content moderator responsible for deleting or promoting viewer comments within the stream's livechat. Alongside follower count, Ame has three stats which the player will need to monitor, namely stress, affection (towards the player), and mental darkness; should certain attributes become too high or low, Ame will begin to display adverse effects. Activities that the player can choose for Ame may involve searching for new stream ideas, spending time together, sleeping, or abusing prescription and illicit drugs; each activity raises and lowers Ame's stats in differing ways. There are 22 different endings to the game, which are encountered based on the player's choices. Development Game development began in June 2020. , who had previously written various literature focused on mental illness, was responsible for the planning and writing of the game, while illustrator was responsible for the character designs. The game's art direction heavily draws influence from vaporwave aesthetics and retro pixel art from the PC-98 era, along with 1990s-era bishōjo games. There were originally four different female characters with unique personality traits planned during the early stages of development, however it was eventually decided that the final game would only feature a single heroine, combining various personality traits into the one character. The game consists of over 140,000 lines of dialogue. Media The game's theme song is "INTERNET OVERDOSE" by and Kotoko, composed and produced in a denpa song style. The song is available as a playable track in the music rhythm game Muse Dash, as part of a collaboration update. Reception As of February 2022, the game has sold over 200,000 copies on Steam, with a rating of "overwhelmingly positive" based on 5,800 user reviews. IGN Japan notes that the game has merit as a work of satire intended at picking apart modern livestreaming culture and toxic relationships, and praises the game's art and presentation, however criticises the limited choices and gimmicks available to express the player character's persona in different ways, arguing that the player is not given the opportunity to become properly aware of any consequences from their interactions with Ame. In addition, the character of Ame is criticised as more of a "male nerd's delusion" of what girls are like, rather than how women realistically behave. Dengeki Online suggests that despite the gratuitous use of mentally disturbing content, Needy Streamer Overload is a quality piece of work full of expressiveness that can only be delivered through games as an entertainment medium, while also pointing out that players unfamiliar with internet culture may not fully appreciate what the game attempts to portray. A review from mentions that while the game has a few rough areas and bugs which detract from the experience, the game still represents a domestic Japanese indie title with a high degree of preciseness put into it, closely satirising the intended audience's internet addiction while at the same time acknowledging how it forms part of their identity. provides a comparatively more critical review of the game, claiming that it is a disturbing and morally problematic title which uses ambiguity to hide the player's evident hatred towards Ame, as observable through the player's ability to torment her, and how the game rewards players who choose to ignore repercussions on Ame's mental health when allowing her to overdose on drugs and slice her wrists in order to progress through the game and unlock new scenarios to explore. The review also criticises the game's lack of sagacity when utilising shock value, suggesting that such usage moves beyond parodic intent.

Government of Tbilisi

The Self-Government of Tbilisi ( or თბილისის მთავრობა) is organized under the Constitution of Georgia and Local Self-Government Code of Georgia and provides for a mayor-council system. The mayor is elected to a four-year term and is responsible for the administration of city government. The Tbilisi City Assembly is a unicameral body consisting of 50 members, selected through a mixed electoral system, normally for four-year terms. 25 of them are elected from a local districts of the city. The remaining 25 members are chosen by political parties and are apportioned according to their support citywide. Tbilisi self-government went through a difficult and interesting process before its formation. Tbilisi, as the political and cultural center of Georgia, has been in the center of multifaceted attention for centuries. In the Middle Ages, the ruler of Tbilisi - Mourav, was personally appointed by the king, which also indicated the uniqueness of his political status. The capital was passing from hand to hand due to the invasion of many enemies in Georgia. During the rule of the Russian Empire, Tiflis was the central city of the Caucasus, where the residence of the viceroy of the Caucasus was also located. Tiflis was ruled by city heads in 19th century Georgia. Tbilisi had a special status during the Soviet period. After the restoration of independence in 1991, the Law of the Supreme Council of the Republic of Georgia "On the Capital of Georgia" entered into force. With this law, the territorial body became the local body of state power, and the city hall and the prefecture became the governing body. The latter was abolished by order of January 4, 1992, and after the Civil War, power was transferred to the temporary special representatives of the Military Council of the Republic of Georgia. On December 19, 1992, the Parliament of Georgia approved a regulation, according to which the City Council of the City Hall was instructed to exercise its powers before the elections of the local representative body of Tbilisi. In 1998, the Parliament of Georgia adopted a new law "On the Capital of Georgia - Tbilisi", according to which the self-government in Tbilisi is exercised by a representative body - Tbilisi City Assembly, and the executive body - Tbilisi City Hall.

Ib Kamara

Ib Kamara, also known as I.B., IB, or Ibrahim Kamara (b.1990) is a Sierra Leone-born, London based fashion journalist, stylist and creative director who, in January 2021, was named editor of Dazed magazine. Early life and education Born Ibrahim Kamara in Sierra Leone in 1990, Kamara and his parents took refuge with relatives in Gambia after civil war broke out, before settling in London when Kamara was sixteen years old. Kamara attributes his turbulent early years and growing up watching world affairs develop via CNN and BBC news programmes with inspiring his focus on current affairs. Before coming to London, he spent three years studying sciences with the intention of becoming a doctor and pleasing his parents, but was unhappy doing so, and decided to pursue fashion as a career option. After enrolling on an art & design course at Westminster Kingsway College, Kamara studied fashion communication at Central Saint Martins. Kamara has dyslexia which he regularly acknowledges in interviews. Career Fashion Kamara's approach is based upon gender identity, fluidity and exploration, queerness and also upon Blackness and African identity and beauty. He attributes his early studies of science with helping him develop his focus and attention to detail. While he originally thought he might become a designer, Kamara became an assistant to the stylist Barry Kamen which established his career as a stylist. His inspirations include the composer Hans Zimmer, the film director Quentin Tarantino and the American fashion journalist Diana Vreeland, who Kamara admires for their ability to create instantly identifiable worlds. Kamara was first noticed in 2016 when he curated an exhibition in London titled "2026" which focused upon Black African masculinity. The models, recruited off the street of Soweto, dressed in outfits made using second-hand clothing, and photographed by Kristin-Lee Moolman, helped Kamara address and challenge conventional ideas of race, gender and sexuality in fashion while also aiming to suggest what menswear would look like a decade later. The exhibition was shown at Somerset House, which led to him being introduced by Jamie Morgan to Robbie Spencer of Dazed who gave Kamara his first fashion editorial. As a stylist, Kamara was popular with the late Virgil Abloh of Louis Vuitton menswear and Off-White, and also styled catwalks and advertising for Riccardo Tisci of Burberry and Erdem. Other clients include Stella McCartney, Dior, Kenneth Ize and Lorenzo Serafini. Comme des Garçons invited him to design hats for their show, and H&M signed him up to direct their first circularly-designed (zero-waste) collection. He worked with Rihanna, both for her label Fenty, and as her personal stylist when she was featured on the cover of Dazed. Abloh described Kamara as a prime example of how "diversity can bring out the best of the fashion industry". For his work as a stylist, Kamara was awarded the Isabella Blow Award by the British Fashion Council on 29 November 2021. In 2021, Iain R. Webb was asked by the Fashion Museum, Bath to choose garments representing 2020 for their Dress of the Year collection. Among the outfits he chose to represent 2020 was an unique dress called "A Dress of Hope", designed by Dazed'''s art director, Gareth Wrighton and styled by Kamara out of vintage table-linens and doilies collected by Webb. Journalism Kamara worked as a senior editor-at-large for i-D magazine from 2019 onwards, and has also worked for British Vogue, Vogue Italia, System, and W. In January 2021 he became editor in chief for Dazed. His first issue of Dazed celebrated the National Health Service and people working together for change, and Kamara's aim is for the magazine to be globally relevant to readers from a wide range of backgrounds and cultures. When he received the Isabella Blow award in 2021, he said he was proud to be a beneficiary of the WWD awards' new focus on individual change-makers rather than companies and brands. As part of his approach to running Dazed, Kamara tries to secure contributors from all around the world, especially from underrepresented fashion centres such as those in Africa and the Middle East. In addition to having their collaborative design chosen as a look for 2020, Kamara and Wrighton were the journalists chosen by the Fashion Museum, Bath to select the Dress of the Year for 2021. They chose the Armani wrap dress worn by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex for her and her husband's interview with Oprah Winfrey. Kamara and Wrighton argued that because Oprah with Meghan and Harry'' became an "iconic" and "definitive anti-establishment moment" that would endure in the British collective memory, it made sense to consider the dress worn by the pregnant Duchess as part of this story.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2%20Samuel%2020

2 Samuel 20

2 Samuel 20 is the twentieth chapter of the Second Book of Samuel in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible or the second part of Books of Samuel in the Hebrew Bible. According to Jewish tradition the book was attributed to the prophet Samuel, with additions by the prophets Gad and Nathan, but modern scholars view it as a composition of a number of independent texts of various ages from c. 630–540 BCE. This chapter contains the account of David's reign in Jerusalem. This is within a section comprising 2 Samuel 9–20 and continued to 1 Kings 1–2 which deal with the power struggles among David's sons to succeed David's throne until 'the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon' (1 Kings 2:46). Text This chapter was originally written in the Hebrew language. It is divided into 26 verses. Textual witnesses Some early manuscripts containing the text of this chapter in Hebrew are of the Masoretic Text tradition, which includes the Codex Cairensis (895), Aleppo Codex (10th century), and Codex Leningradensis (1008). Fragments containing parts of this chapter in Hebrew were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls including 1Q7 (1QSam; 50 BCE) with extant verses 6–10 and 4Q51 (4QSam; 100 ‑ 50 BCE) with extant verses 1–2, 4, 9–14, 19, 21–25. Extant ancient manuscripts of a translation into Koine Greek known as the Septuagint (originally was made in the last few centuries BCE) include Codex Vaticanus (B; B; 4th century) and Codex Alexandrinus (A; A; 5th century). Old Testament references : Analysis Verses 1–3 of this chapter conclude the account of Absalom's rebellion with David safely back in his residence in Jerusalem: Rebellion of Sheba (20:1–22) The discontent of the northern tribes recorded at the end of the previous chapter led to another rebellion, this time under Sheba, 'the son of Bichri, a Benjaminite', and a representative of the Saulide camp (cf. Bechorath in 1 Samuel 9:1). Although verse 2 suggests that 'all Israel' (the tribes other than Judah) left David and followed Sheba, verse 14 shows that only the Bichrites were the active rebels, but the significance of this group must not be overlooked. David perceived in verse 6 that this dissent was potentially more harmful than Absalom's rebellion, because it endangered the structure of the kingdom. Significantly Sheba's rallying cry (verse 1) was repeated when the kingdom of Israel was really divided after the death of Solomon (1 Kings 12:16). Once David had settled in Jerusalem and made arrangements for his ten concubines, whom he left behind (verse 3), he turned his focus to the dissension. The newly appointed commander, Amasa (2 Samuel 19:13), was given three days to rally a force, but did not do as requested. Abishai was immediately put in charge of the army, but Joab who still had 'men' under his command (verse 7) took the lead to pursue Sheba. When Amasa met them at Gibeon, Joab pretended to kiss Amasa by pulling his beard to kiss him, but used a hidden short sword in his girdle to kill Amasa. Now Joab unquestionably became the leader of the army (his brother Abishai was no longer mentioned after verse 10) and the pursuit reached Abel of Beth-maacah in the north, near Dan, where Sheba went into. During the siege a 'wise woman' spoke to Joab from the rampart, offering a plan to save Abel-beth-maachah, a city which had a reputation for wisdom (verse 18) and considered a 'mother city' in Israel (verse 19), by beheading Sheba and throwing his severed head to Joab. With this, the rebellion ended, all people went home to their own cities as Joab returned to Jerusalem to report to David. There are obvious links between the appearance of the wise woman of Abel and that of Tekoa in 2 Samuel 14: Both women spoke to Joab the 'heritage of the LORD' became an issue in both (verse 19; cf. 2 Samuel 14:16). Verse 8 Then the king arose and took his seat in the gate. And the people were all told, "Behold, the king is sitting in the gate." And all the people came before the king. Now Israel had fled every man to his own home. "Israel": comparing to 2 Samuel 18:16–17 this may refer to the supporters of Absalom (cf. 2 Samuel 18:6–7). "Every man to his own home": Hebrew: “each to his tent.” David's court officials (20:23–26) The chapter concludes with another list of David's court officials not exactly identical to the previous list in 2 Samuel 8:15-18. The comparison is as follows: Joab remained the established commander of the army, and Benaiah remained in charge of the Cherethites and Pelethites. Adoram (written as "Adoniram" in 1 Kings 4:6), not mentioned in the previous list, was in charge of forced labor, which was established in the latter part of David's reign. All the other names are identical with those in the previous list, except Ira, who replaces David's sons at 2 Samuel 8:18 and was called 'the Jairite', probably denoting his origin from the village of Jair (Numbers 32:41; Deuteronomy 3:14).

Henry ToRobert

Sir Henry ToRobert (1942–2018) was a Papua New Guinean civil servant who was the first governor of the Bank of Papua New Guinea. He also played a major role in developing the Credit Corporation (PNG) Ltd and was president of the Papua New Guinea Olympic Committee for 30 years. Early life and education Henry ToRobert, an ethnic Tolai, was born in the village of Romale in what is now the East New Britain Province of Papua New Guinea (PNG), on 22 October 1942. This was at a time during World War II when Japanese forces had just captured the area. A bright child, he went to Vuvu Secondary school on the Gazelle Peninsula at the age of ten and at the age of 14 was awarded a full scholarship by the Australian government to attend St. Brendan's College, Yeppoon in Queensland. His fellow student there was John Momis, who would become President of the Autonomous Region of Bougainville in PNG. After graduating from St. Brendan's, he went to the Australian School of Pacific Administration (ASOPA) in Sydney with the intention of training as a teacher. However, two weeks after arriving there he learnt that he had received a full scholarship from the Reserve Bank of Australia to study at the University of Sydney. He graduated with a degree in economics, being the first Papua New Guinean to obtain a degree in that subject and only the second to receive a degree from an Australian university. Career In 1967, ToRobert returned to what was, at the time, the Territory of Papua and New Guinea, and started work in Port Moresby for the Reserve Bank of Australia. In 1973, just a month before Papua New Guinea became self-governing, he became the Governor of the Bank of Papua New Guinea, a position he would hold until 1993. On 16 September 1975, PNG became independent. From 19 May 1975, the new currency, the Kina, was introduced. This circulated along with the Australian dollar until 31 December 1975, when the latter ceased to be legal tender. ToRobert was responsible for overseeing the transfer. He paid particular attention to ensuring that all coins had designs that illustrated an animal unique to PNG, i.e., a turtle, cuscus, cassowary and crocodile. The one-kina coin has a hole in the middle, inspired by the shell that was often used for trading in the country at the time. After leaving the Bank of PNG in 1993, ToRobert became the chair of Credit Corporation (PNG) Ltd, building it up to be one of PNG's most-successful companies, before resigning in 2007 to compete unsuccessfully in the national elections as a candidate of the New Generation Party for Kokopo in East New Britain. He became a trustee of the Papua New Guinea Institute of National Affairs, a private-sector-funded think-tank, chair of the Institute of Applied Social and Economic Research, now known as the Papua New Guinea National Research Institute, and chair of the management board of the PNG Bankers' College. He was managing director of PNG's Privatization Commission and chair of the Gazelle Restoration Authority, which was established in 1995 after the 1994 volcanic eruption of Mount Tavurvur. A keen rugby player and golfer, ToRobert was president of the Papua New Guinea Olympic Committee from 1980 to 2000 and from 2003 to 2012. Among other sporting roles, he was president of the PNG Softball Association. Awards and honours ToRobert was made a Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire (KBE) in the 1981 Birthday Honours at the age of 39. In 2015 Papua New Guinea made him a Grand Companion of the Order of Logohu (GCL), the highest PNG award, which allowed him to be referred to as "Chief". In 1991, the Bank of Papua New Guinea opened a new headquarters, and the building was named "ToRobert Haus". In 2013, his image appeared on a Kina 6.00 stamp, as one several stamps produced to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Bank. Another of the stamps included a picture of ToRobert Haus.

Francesco Landi (general)

Francesco Landi was a Two Sicilian Brigadier General who was notable for being the main commander at the Battle of Calatafimi against Garibaldi's Red Shirts. Biography Francesco was the son of Antonio Landi who was an officer of the army of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies and Raimonda Buonocore, daughter of an officer of the Army of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, he had 6 brothers, of whom four (Donato, Luigi, Giovanni and Nicola) will follow a military career, while Giuseppe would practice a legal career and Gennaro would take his vows. Francesco Landi was admitted at 14 as a pupil of the Nunziatella Military School at the beginning of the French decade. Landi and his pupils were first assigned to a regiment as volunteers, to then become graduates of the troops, non-commissioned officers and finally second-lieutenants. Landi was first assigned as a volunteer to the 3rd line infantry regiment and then became a second lieutenant in November 1809. Joachim Murat had been sitting on the throne of Naples since 1 August 1808 and organized an expeditionary force made up of 20,000 French and 8,000 Neapolitans to attempt an invasion in Sicily against Ferdinand I of Sicily and quell the brigandage in Calabria, fomented in turn by loyalists to the crown of Ferdinand I. Their base of operations was in Calabria, and Francesco Landi participated in the expedition with the 3rd line regiment until 1813 when as a lieutenant he was assigned to the 8th line regiment. He participated in the Siege of Ancona in 1814 and in Joachim Murat's campaign against the Austrians until the defeat at Tolentino on May 2, 1815, after having received promotion to captain and the knight's cross of the Royal Order of the Two-Sicilies. With the defeat of Murat at the Battle of Tolentino, Ferdinand I of Sicily ascended to the throne of Naples with the name of Ferdinand I of Naples. Captain Landi, according to the Casalanza Treaty, will maintain the honors and degrees by taking an oath of loyalty to Ferdinand I of Naples. Under the new Bourbon regime, Francesco Landi, confirmed in the rank of captain, was assigned in 1816 to the 3rd regiment of the Regina line, stationed in Bari. The Murattian and Sicilian officers, until recently on opposite fields, were to now live together in a condition of hostile rivalry which would tend to worsen following some divisive measures of the Bourbon government. The decorations of the Royal Order of the Two Sicilies would be a divisive sign between the two factions and this would generate an underground discontent among the Murattian officers which will lead to the formation of some of these officers of carbonare lodges however there was no records on Francesco Landi's involvement in these carbonare lodges, even if Landi adhered to the constitutional movement of 1820–21 with which Ferdinand I of Naples was forced to grant the constitution, then revoked a few months later with the help of the Austrians. In 1818 Francesco Landi married Raffaella De Marinis, belonging to a noble family from Campania and had five children who would serve first in the Two Sicilian army, to then be re-enlisted in the Royal Italian Army. Landi would participate in the Carbonari uprisings of 1820–1821, where his regiment would be distinguished by the numerous desertions and acts of indiscipline. Following the end of the constitutional regime with the help of the Austrian army which will remain as occupier at the expense of the Kingdom of Naples, the national army is dissolved with a criminal trial for the officers most involved and an examination of the service record for the others. Following this examination, which would assess political rather than military conduct, Landi was placed on exile, together with other officers. Landi's career seems to have been cut short at that moment. The Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, in the absence of a national army, would have to be based on the Imperial Austrian Army and on the formation of Swiss regiments, A turning point in the military policy of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies took place with the ascent to the throne of Ferdinand II who passionate about the military and with sympathy for the veterans of the Napoleonic campaigns excluded with the purge of 1821, who started the formation of a national army rescuing from the Murattian veterans and the Sicilian army cadres in which the ancient practice of the sale of degrees was still taking place. In this renewal, in 1832, Landi was recalled among the officers in reserve, only to be employed in operational departments only in 1838. In 1840 he was assigned to the 2nd Hunters Battalion where he remained for eight years as captain. In 1848 he was assigned to the 3rd Prince Regiment which was engaged in the repression of a revolt against the Bourbon regime in Calabria, receiving for his services the knight's cross of the Royal Order of Francis I. He will not participate in the campaign for the recovery of Sicily in the period 1848–49. In 1849 he was promoted to major and transferred to the 1st King Regiment and was then promoted to lieutenant colonel and commanded the 9th Hunters Battalion and in 1856, to the 6th Farnese Infantry Regiment stationed in Palermo, before assuming the rank of colonel. Expedition of the Thousand With the 6th Farnese Regiment, Francesco Landi was engaged in the repression of the of early April 1860 which ended on April 14 with the executions of dozens of conspirators. His service during the revolt led to his promotion to brigadier general on April 19 at the age of 68. In this phase of his life, Francesco Landi suffered from an unsteady health and difficulty in staying on horseback for a long time, preferring the carriage in operational movements, which was also the usual means for senior officers. In Sicily there was no revolution but there was a revolutionary situation that could get out of hand, due to the various outbreaks of revolt present. The attitude of the Sicilians were hostile not only because they are dissatisfied with the government, but also because of the intolerance towards the Neapolitan occupation. From the Revolt of the Gancia, there was a succession of actions by armed gangs, which, although not decisive, enjoyed popular support, especially from Cavour's Piedmontese agents and had the effect of keeping in constant pressure and a state of alarm the army, forcing it to long and exhausting marches and displacements to face the various threats. In April 1860, there were 25,000 soldiers in Sicily, garrisoned mainly at Palermo who reached the various parts of Sicily with mobile columns according to needs. The troops in Sicily depended on Lieutenant general Paolo Ruffo, Prince of Castelcicala, in charge of the land and sea forces stationed in Sicily. The army had a territorial order, so the constitution of brigades and divisions took place only when they had to operate, creating heterogeneous and not very close-knit units precisely in moments of operational peak. This order was justified by the conviction that a policy of international isolation would keep the kingdom safe from conflicts, considering the army as a tool to be used mainly to maintain public order. Although the hypothesis of a landing in Sicily had been aired for some time, the authorities had not prepared a plan until May, limiting themselves to sending mobile columns of troops where armed bands were reported. The passage of mobile columns near the inhabited centers created inconvenience, especially for the supplies found locally on which the mobile columns depended. For lack of coordination between General Paolo Ruffo, head of the Sicilian command, and General , head of the square of Palermo, the return to Palermo by sea from Trapani of the columns led by General Giuseppe Letizia was ordered, and at the same time the sending of a mobile column from Palermo to deal with the news of new insurgents in Sicily and in particulaly, a prediction of an imminent landing of Giuseppe Garibaldi, who departed from Quarto on May 5, expected, according to information from the Neapolitan command, in the stretch of Sicilian coast between Mazara and San Vito Lo Capo. The War Council decided to give command of the operations to stop Garibaldi to Francesco Landi, preferring him to General Giovan Luca von Mechel as he was of Swiss origin and therefore deemed a foreigner. Landi's mobile columns left Palermo on May 6, 1860, but the command's concern was not to defeat Palermo, which was itself the potential hotbed of a revolt, and therefore to use as few men and means as possible. The general would move very cautiously, and lamented the lack of postal services along the way and the presence of broken telegraph poles. In his correspondence with superiors, Landi complained about the absence of telegraphic communications and the lack of a fast relay service that would allow the rapid exchange of messages with the commands of Palermo, less than 80 km from Calatafimi, so he would have to rely on pedestrians for communication. On May 9, Landi was at Alcamo where he remained until May 12, when he would receive communication from Palermo of Garibaldi's landing in Marsala, receiving the order to meet him, with the promise that reinforcements would join him in Calatafimi. Landi arrived at Calatafimi at dawn on May 13. In correspondence with the superior commands, Landi would report the presence of a growing mass of insurgents who had their headquarters in Salemi. Landi, out of prudence, decided not to head towards Salemi to face the insurgents, considering it more favorable to wait for the impact of the insurgents in Calatafimi in order to cut the road to Palermo. Landi had a total of about 3,000 soldiers in mobile columns, while he didn't know the size of the enemy expedition, nor did he have precise information on their movements. Landi then asked Palermo for further troops who could seize the enemy from behind however these troops wouldn't arrive. On May 14 from Palermo, Landi would receive a communication to fall back to Partinico, in contradiction with the previous orders to deal with the expedition. A perplexed Landi sent a patrol expedition on May 15 to identify the enemy troops, preferring this solution to the continuation of the initial attack plan or the retreat towards Partinico. The patrol columns were composed of several companies, including those of the 8th Hunters battalion under the command of Major Sforza, who would meet the Garibaldians and, after an initial phase of observation, will autonomously decide to attack around 10:00 in the morning, although there was no order to that as it was directly part of Landi himself but without the necessary coordination with the other companies present and this led to the Battle of Calatafimi. The confrontation would last around eight hours and would end with the retreat ordered by Landi, after an unexpected resistance by Garibaldi and his men. Landi was heavily criticized of his conduct during the Battle of Calatafimi in which excessive prudence, the lack of coordination of the first attack, and an early retreat would determine an important impact on the morale of the troops, generating a chain of events that will lead to the fall of Palermo and an incredible military defeat. Part of the responsibilities, according to de Cesare in his account, are to be attributed to the contradictory orders of the various commands, afflicted by internal rivalries, to the delay in the arrival of reinforcements from Naples, to the untimely change of the lieutenant general on the same day of the Battle of Calatafimi. headed for Paolo Ruffo, Prince of Castelcicala with the lieutenant general , seventy-two years old at the time, and the well-founded fear of the presence in the surroundings of Calatafimi of insurgent formations that could support Garibaldi and seize Landi from behind. During the orderly retreat towards Palermo, Landi will be ambushed by armed gangs that will force him to a limited defense due to the scarcity of the remaining ammunition. Back in Palermo, General Lanza will show Landi the excessive haste in retiring. The defense of Landi was based on the contradictory orders received from the command, in the meantime passed from General Paolo Ruffo to General Ferdinando Lanza, and on the description given of the events. These explanations will be considered exhaustive by Lanza, as the latter will confirm Landi in command and will use him in positions of responsibility until the Siege of Palermo which exploded on May 27 with the arrival of Garibaldi at the gates of the city. Accusations of Treason Landi, together with the other generals who had participated in the Sicilian defeat, would be subjected to a commission of inquiry, which would however conclude with a favorable judgment, attributing the failure to exceptional events not attributable to the conduct of the generals. After this judgment, Landi left the army and died a few months later in Naples, following a pleurisy, on February 2, 1861. To mitigate the sins of the regime, the Bourbon thesis was that the fall was due to the betrayal of the leaders, ancient murattists, ungrateful for having been readmitted after the initial expulsion. Lieutenant General Paolo Ruffo, Prince of Castelcicala, after his removal as lieutenant for Sicily on the day of the Battle of Calatafimi, would accuse Landi of treason, regarding the excessively long time taken by the latter in the movements of his troops. Ruffo's accusations will also involve other officers, including General Lanza. A commission of inquiry had already addressed the issue, exonerating all generals, including Landi. Added to this is that in 1861 the news was spread, without evidence, according to which Francesco Landi, now on leave, would've gone to the Banco di Napoli, to collect a credit policy of 14,000 gold ducats as a reward received by Giuseppe Garibaldi in order not to oppose his advance, then proved, according to rumors, a falsified faith worth only 14 ducats, hence the alleged sudden death from a stroke. Raffaele de Cesare also specified that Landi died after a few days of illness and not suddenly as the Bourbon writers said. On the event, one of the general's sons managed to obtain a letter of denial from Garibaldi himself. De Cesare believes that Landi's retreat to Calatafimi, while decisive, was only the first of a disastrous series of debacles. Landi was not the only one to be, in retrospect, accused of treason, as a long series of other generals were accused of alleged treason both in Sicily and on the continent. He attributed the defeat to the serious systemic errors committed by the Bourbon army, the absence of a single command, internal rivalries and the tendency to avoid responsibility on the part of the highest officers: References Bibliography 1792 births 1861 deaths 19th-century Neapolitan people People of the Kingdom of Naples (Napoleonic) Kingdom of the Two Sicilies military personnel Expedition of the Thousand Military personnel from Naples

The Victory of Faith (painting)

The Victory of Faith is an oil on canvas painting by Irish artist Saint George Hare that was completed in 1891. It depicts two sleeping nude women, one shackled, likely Christian martyrs sentenced to death by beasts (see damnatio ad bestias). The Victory of Faith is one of several paintings by Hare showing shackled women, another notable example being The Gilded Cage. A contemporary article in The Homiletic Review called it an "impressive depiction of Christian faith and steadfastness" and described the two women to be in a "sisterly embrace", while a modern description by Kobena Mercer named the work as an example of an interracial lesbian couple, likening it to Les Amis by Jules Robert Auguste. The Victory of Faith was exhibited at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition of 1891 and at the World's Columbian Exposition in 1893. It is currently at the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne, having been donated to the gallery in 1905. Notes References 1891 paintings Irish paintings Nude art

Battle of Akatsuka

Battle of Akatsuka (or Akazuka, May 10, 1552) was the first recorded battle of the young Oda Nobunaga in his struggle to unite the province of Owari, against one of the former vassals of his late father (Oda Nobuhide, died in 1552), who switched is allegiance to the powerful Imagawa clan of Suruga province. Background Oda Nobuhide, a daimyo with significant influence in southern Owari, passed away on March 3, 1552, after a short contagious illness. His heir, Oda Nobunaga, who was barely 18 at the time, inherited a large feudal domain around Nagoya Castle, but he enjoyed generally bad reputation amongst the people of Owari for his eccentric and rude public behavior. Nobunaga mostly spent his time between the age of 13 (age of maturity at the time) and 18 in hunting, riding, practicing archery and shooting arquebus (still a novelty in Japan at the time), but also wrestling, swimming, watching sumo and visiting taverns and brothels with his friends. He also showed complete disdain for formal clothing and proper social behavior of a lord, wearing sleeveless bathrobe and short trousers tied with hemp rope in public, eating melons while riding backwards on his horse and often dancing in female clothing in taverns, gaining the nickname The Fool of Owari. Many of his father's retainers presumed their new lord as too weak or immature to lead and protect them and their lands, and some even contemplated open rebellion and replacing Nobunaga with his younger brother, Oda Nobuyuki, or defecting to more powerful regional lords. Battle In spring of 1552, barely a month after his father's death, one of Nobunaga's senior retainers, Yamaguchi Noritsugu, the castellan of Narumi Castle, and his son Yamaguchi Kurojiro (Noriyoshi) defected to the powerful Imagawa clan of Suruga (who controlled neighbor eastern provinces of Mikawa and Totomi) and invited their troops to Owari, who made several fortifications on Oda land. In response, on April 17 th (Lunar calendar) Oda Nobunaga raised some 800 men in Nagoya Castle and advanced to Narumi: on the way, his force was intercepted about a mile north of the castle by some fifteen hundred men led by young Yamaguchi Kurojiro. Battle was fought on foot, in close quarters with cold steel and lasted from the Hour of the Serpent (around 10 a.m) to the Hour of the Horse (around noon). After two hours of intense fighting, Nobunaga lost some 30 men, and retreated the same day back to Nagoya, leaving contested lands in eastern Owari under Imagawa control. Aftermath Nobunaga's first display as a battlefield commander impressed none, and further rebellions and attacks against Nobunaga were soon to follow, as his neighbors and relatives were trying to exploit his youth and presumed weakness for their benefit.

It is one of few synagogues to have survived intact from the Nazi occupation of France, as the Nazis used it to store weapons. In 1984, it was classified as a monument historique. It is owned by the city and operated by the local community. In January 2022, it reopened after three years of restorations, which were intended to bring its appearance back to how it looked when it opened. The initial budget for restorations was €1.5 million. In November 2018, to raise funds for the renovation and to educate the local community, it ran a mojito bar with guided tours.
