Samuel Fisher (1605–1665) was an English Quaker controversialist. Early life Fisher was the son of John Fisher, a hatter in Northampton, where Fisher was born. After attending a local school he matriculated at Trinity College, Oxford, in 1623 and graduated B.A. in 1627. Of Puritan views, he moved to New Inn Hall, where he proceeded M.A. in 1630. Gerard Croese states that he was chaplain to a nobleman for a short time, and became a confirmed Puritan. In 1632 he was presented to the lectureship of Lydd, Kent. He was known as a powerful preacher, and became a leader among the Puritans of the district. In his 'Baby-Baptism', Fisher states that he was later given a presbyterian ordination. While at Lydd Fisher associated with some Anabaptists, attending their meetings and offering them the use of his pulpit, in which he was stopped by the churchwardens. About 1643 he returned his licence to the bishop and joined the Baptists, supporting himself by farming. He was rebaptised, and after taking an active part in the Baptist community became minister to a congregation at Ashford, Kent, by 1649, in which year he engaged in controversy on infant baptism with several ministers in the presence of over two thousand people. He also disputed with Francis Cheynell at Petworth, Sussex, in 1651, and was engaged in at least eight other disputes within three years. He wrote Tracts in defence of his principles, and Baby-Baptism meer Babism. Quaker convert In 1654 William Coton and John Stubbs, while on a visit to Lydd, stayed at Fisher's house, and convinced him of the truth of quakerism. Shortly afterwards he joined the Society of Friends, among whom he became a minister, probably before his meeting with George Fox at Romney in 1655. On 17 September 1656 Fisher attended the meeting of Parliament, and when Oliver Cromwell stated that to his knowledge no man in England had suffered imprisonment unjustly, he attempted a reply. He was prevented from completing his speech, which he afterwards published. He subsequently attempted to address the Members of Parliament at a fast-day service in St. Margaret's Church, Westminster. He was active in Kent, where according to Joseph Besse he was roughly handled in 1658, and in 1659 he was pulled out of a meeting at Westminster by his hair and beaten. In May 1659 he went to Dunkirk with Edward Burrough; when the authorities ordered them to leave the town, they declined, and were then directed to be moderate. After unsuccessful encounters with the monks and nuns for a few days they returned to England. During the following year Fisher and Stubbs made a journey to Rome, travelling over the Alps on foot, where they testified to several of the cardinals, and distributed copies of Quaker literature. They apparently were not molested or warned. Anthony Wood states that when Fisher returned, he was well dressed; suspected of being a Jesuit and in receipt of a pension from the Pope, he was imprisoned and he seems to have undergone some further persecution. Later life In 1660 Fisher held a dispute with Thomas Danson at Sandwich, Kent, and later that year was in Newgate Prison. The rest of his life was mainly spent around London, where he was a successful preacher. In 1661 he was imprisoned and treated badly in the Gatehouse Prison, Westminster. In 1662 he was arrested and sent to Bridewell Prison for being present at an illegal meeting. He was again sent to Newgate for refusing to take oaths, and was detained for upwards of a year, during which time he occupied himself in writing 'The Bishop busied beside the Business.' During part of this imprisonment he was confined with other prisoners in a room so small that they were unable to lie down at the same time. Shortly after his discharge he was again arrested at Charlwood, Surrey, and committed to the White Lion Prison, Southwark, where he was confined for about two years. During the Great Plague of London he was temporarily released, and went to the house of Ann Travers, a Quaker at Dalston, near London, where he died of the plague on 31 August 1665. Fisher's works were Quaker text-books for more than a century. William Sewel called him 'dextrous and well skilled in the ancient poets and Hebrew'; and William Penn, a close associate, praised his even temper and humility. Works Fisher used an "alliterative popular style" which "has something of Rabelais and something of Martin Marprelate in it". Fisher's Rusticus ad Academicos in Exercitationibus Expostulatoriis, Apologeticis Quatuor. The Rusticks Alarm to the Rabbies, or the Country correcting the University and Clergy (1660) is, according to Christopher Hill, "a remarkable work of popular Biblical criticism, based on real scholarship", in which Fisher "virtually abandoned any hope of unity of interpretation, and so of any external unity [of the church]." Fisher's works include: Baby-Baptism meer Babism, or an Answer to Nobody in Five Words, to Everybody who finds himself concerned in it. (1) Anti-Diabolism, or a True Account of a Dispute at Ashford proved a True Counterfeit ; (2) Anti-Babism, or the Babish Disputings of the Priests for Baby-Baptism Disproved; (3) Anti-Rantism, or Christ'ndome Unchrist'nd; (4) Anti-Ranterism, or Christ'ndome New Christ'nd; (5) Anti-Sacerdotism the deep dotage of the D.D. Divines Discovered, or the Antichristian C.C. Clergy cleared to be that themselves which they have ever charged Christ's Clergy to be, 1653. Christianismus Redivivus, Christ'ndom both unchrist'ned and new-christ'ned, 1655. The Scorned Quaker's True and Honest Account, both why and what he should have spoken (as to the sum and substance thereof) by commission from God, but that he had not permission from Men, 1656.

Robyn Sings is a double album by Robyn Hitchcock, released in 2002. The set is made up entirely of Bob Dylan covers, performed live at various dates. The CD was the second release on Hitchcock's own Editions PAF! label. Background Hitchcock is a long-time Dylan fan, and this is the first time he had released an album of covers, giving Dylan an especially privileged place in Hitchcock's oeuvre. Disc details Rather than nominate the two discs as 'one' and 'two', they are labeled 'stripes' and 'dots' respectively, in view of the printed pattern on each. Disc Stripes contains eight recordings including two versions of "Visions of Johanna", which Hitchcock introduces as "the reason I started writing songs". His source material here is varied, spanning several decades of Dylan output from the mid-1960s up until 1997's "Not Dark Yet". Hitchcock's renditions are sensitive and sharp, with the occasional lyric change. (During the track "4th Time Around", Hitchcock forgets his words and has to request help from the audience.) Disc Dots is a re-creation of the second part of Bob Dylan's 'Royal Albert Hall' concert of 1966, which actually took place in Manchester, and is famous for Dylan's confrontational stance against a heckling audience who objected to his electric instrumentation. Hitchcock runs through the set track for track, culminating with "Like a Rolling Stone". Illustration The CD insert features a shot of Hitchcock on the Isle of Wight, at a 1996 gig for which he chartered two vintage open-topped buses, transporting his audience around certain beauty spots on the island, where the entourage would pull over and listen to a few numbers before boarding again and heading off.

Spanioneura fonscolombii, is a species of plant-parasitic psyllid in the family Psyllidae which feed on box (Buxus sempervirens). It was first described by Arnold Förster in 1848 and is found in Europe. It is also found in the United States of America where it was accidentally introduced. Description A distinctive green psyllid which specialises on box (Buxus sempervirens). It has elongated pointed forewings with yellowish cells with dark spots at the apices of four cells and the veins of the wings are yellow and/or green. The antennae are orange with a dark tip. Galls There is some dispute as to whether the bug causes galls on the leaves of its food plant. Plant Parasties of Europe claims that adults and larvae live freely on the leaves without causing any galling, while in the literature of the British Plant Gall Society there are small, pale, cabbage-like clusters at the tips of the shoots of box. The affected leaves are thicker than normal leaves, are strongly concave and shelter numerous pale-green nymphs, which are coated in a white wax. The nymphs mature and leave the plant in late summer and lay eggs, which overwinter on the shoots and leaves. Alternatively the imago (adult) overwinters on the host plant. Similar species Another psyllid, the Boxwood psyllid (Psylla buxi), is also associated with box but can be distinguished from S. fonscolombii by the tip of the abdomen, which is orange and lacks dark spots and yellowing on the wing cells. Distribution Spanioneura fonscolombii is found in Belgium, France, Great Britain, Italy, Luxembourg, Romania, Spain and Switzerland. It has been accidentally introduced to the United States of America. References Psyllidae Galls Hemiptera of Europe Hemiptera of North America Insects described in 1848 Taxa named by Arnold Förster

The Holly Bears The Crown is an album by The Young Tradition with Shirley and Dolly Collins and other guest musicians. The trio "The Young Tradition" (Peter Bellamy, Royston Wood and Heather Wood) sang a cappella folk songs in a style similar to the Copper Family. This album was recorded in London in 1969. A few weeks later musical and financial differences caused the break-up of The Young Tradition. Following the break-up, the record company refused to issue the album, which did not appear until 1995. By then Royston, Peter and Dolly were dead. Guest musicians Adam and Roderick Skeaping, here credited as 'The Skeapings', were members of "Musica Reservata" and had played on Shirley Collins albums. The only tracks on which everyone appears are the first song ("The Boar's Head Carol") and the last ("Bring Us in Good Ale"). Peter Bellamy later carved out a successful solo career; both Shirley and Dolly Collins also had successful careers both before and after (Shirley Collins has done more work in the folk music field than her sister). Two tracks are Shirley and Dolly Collins without the others. These later appeared on a compilation called The Classic Collection (ostensibly by Shirley Collins) in 2004.

Michael Robert Gale (born May 25, 1951) is an American screenwriter, comic book writer, film producer and director. He is best known for co-writing the science fiction comedy film Back to the Future with his writing partner Robert Zemeckis. Gale co-produced all three films of the franchise and later served as associate producer of the animated TV series. Actor Michael J. Fox has referred to Gale as the "gatekeeper of the [Back to the Future] franchise". Early life Gale was born to a Jewish family in University City, Missouri; he is the son of Maxine (née Kippel and died in 2010), an art dealer and violinist, and Mark R. Gale (1922–2018), an attorney. Mark Gale was a World War II veteran and later a University City councilman. Bob Gale has two younger brothers, Charlie, who wrote the screenplay for Ernest Scared Stupid, and Randy. Bob Gale received a B.A. in Cinema in 1973 from the University of Southern California, where he wrote fanzine reviews for classmate Mike Glyer's fanzine, and met Zemeckis, who was his classmate. As a child, Gale dreamed he would one day "go to Hollywood and work for Walt Disney", who was his hero. As a teen, he created his own comic book, The Green Vomit, using spirit duplication; he was the co-founder of a popular comic book club in St. Louis. Later he and his brother Charlie made their own amateur three-film series parody of the Republic Pictures Commando Cody serials, using the character name "Commando Cus". The last two films were made in collaboration with Richard Rosenberg. (Rosenberg had taken over the series with the third, 1973's Commando Cus vs. Kung Fu Killers, in which Gale made a cameo appearance as the title character without his face-covering helmet, and was working on a fourth at the time of his death.) Career Film As screenwriters Gale and Zemeckis have collaborated on a number of films including 1941, I Wanna Hold Your Hand, Used Cars, and Trespass. The last one was set in East St. Louis, Illinois near Gale's home town. Gale and Zemeckis were nominated for an Academy Award for their screenplay for Back to the Future. In 2002, Gale made his debut as a feature-film director with Interstate 60: Episodes of the Road. He had previously directed and written the 20-minute theatrical release Mr. Payback: An Interactive Movie. Gale's other work includes the novelization for his movie 1941 and he helped develop the unreleased arcade game Tattoo Assassins. Gale, formerly a member of Writers Guild of America West, left and maintained financial core status in 1990. On 31 January 2014, it was announced that a stage musical adaptation of the first Back to the Future film was in production. Comics As a teenager, Bob Gale was a regular Marvel reader and his fan letter appeared in Iron Man #2, published in June 1968. Gale began writing for comics in the late 90s, and his earliest work includes Ant-Man's Big Christmas for Marvel and Batman for DC Comics. In 2001, he had a short run on Marvel's Daredevil with artists Phil Winslade and Dave Ross. In 2008, Gale worked as one of the writers among the rotating writer/artist teams on The Amazing Spider-Man, which at the time was published three times a month. His other work in comics includes the Back to the Future monthly series published by IDW Publishing. The first issue was released in stores on October 21, 2015, which is the same date that Marty travels with Doc Brown to the future; the comic book is shown as part of the storyline for Part II.

Roseola, also known as sixth disease, is an infectious disease caused by certain types of human herpes viruses. Most infections occur before the age of three. Symptoms vary from absent to the classic presentation of a fever of rapid onset followed by a rash. The fever generally lasts for three to five days, while the rash is generally pink and lasts for less than three days. Complications may include febrile seizures, with serious complications being rare. It is caused by human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6A, HHV-6B) or human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7). Spread is usually through the saliva of those who are otherwise healthy. However, it may also spread from the mother to baby during pregnancy. Diagnosis is typically based on symptoms and does not need to be confirmed with blood tests (PCR or antigen). Low numbers of white blood cells may also be present. Treatment includes sufficient fluids and medications to treat the fever. Nearly all people are infected at some point in time. Males and females are affected equally often. The disease may reactivate in those with a weakened immune system and may result in significant health problems. The disease was first described in 1910 while the causal virus was determined in 1988. The name "sixth disease" comes from its place on the standard list of rash-causing childhood diseases, which also includes measles (first), scarlet fever (second), rubella (third), Dukes' disease (fourth, but is no longer widely accepted as distinct from scarlet fever), and erythema infectiosum (fifth). Signs and symptoms Fever Symptoms begin with a three to six day febrile illness. During this time, temperatures can peak above 40 °C and children can experience increased irritability with general malaise. However, many children in the febrile phase feel well, engaged, and alert. For these patients, fever is usually diagnosed incidentally. The most common complication (10-15% of children between 6 and 18 months) and most common cause of hospitalization in children with primary infection of HHV-6B is febrile seizures which can precipitate status epilepticus due to the sudden rise in body temperature. Rash Once the febrile phase subsides, a rash develops. In some cases, the rash can present after one or two days after the fever resolves. The rash is classically described as an erythematous morbilliform exanthem and presents as a distribution of soft pink, discrete, and slightly raised lesions each with a 2-5mm diameter. It classically begins on the trunk (torso) and spreads outward to the neck, extremities, and face. This pattern is referred to as a centrifugal spread. Usually, peeling and itching are not characteristic of this rash. This phase can last anywhere from several hours to 2 days. Other symptoms A small percentage of children acquire HHV-6 with few signs or symptoms of the disease. Children with HHV-6 infection can also present with myringitis (inflammation of the tympanic membranes), upper respiratory symptoms, diarrhea, and a bulging fontanelle. In addition, children can experience pharyngitis with lymphoid hyperplasia seen on the soft palate and swelling of the eyelids. These symptoms usually present during the febrile phase of roseola. Cervical and postocciptal lymphadenopathy can also be seen, but this generally presents 2–4 days after the onset of the febrile phase. In rare cases, HHV-6 can become active in an adult previously infected during childhood and can show signs of mononucleosis. Cause There are nine known human herpesviruses. Of these, roseola has been linked to two: human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) and human herpesvirus 7 (HHV-7), which are sometimes referred to collectively as Roseolovirus. These viruses are of the Herpesviridae family and the Betaherpesvirinae subfamily, under which Cytomegalovirus is also classified. HHV-6 has been further classified into HHV-6A and HHV-6B, two distinct viruses which share 88% of the same DNA makeup, with HHV-6B the most common cause of roseola. After infection, these viruses enter a latent phase. Roseola caused by HHV-7 has been linked to the ability of HHV-7 infection to reactivate latent HHV-6. Spread After exposure to roseola, the causative virus becomes latent in its host but is still present in saliva, skin, and lungs. HHV-6 is thought to be transmitted from previously exposed or infected adults to young children by the shedding of virus through saliva. Even so, most cases of roseola are transmitted without known exposure. Diagnosis The diagnosis of roseola is made clinically based on the presence of the two phases: fever and rash. Laboratory testing is seldom used as the results do not alter management of the disease. An exception is in people who are immunocompromised in who serologic tests with viral identification can be used to confirm the diagnosis. Roseola should be differentiated from other similar-appearing illnesses, such as rubella, measles, fifth disease, scarlet fever, and drug reactions. This differentiation may be determined based on symptoms. Prevention Many viruses can cause Roseola and are shed by carriers without symptoms. Because of this and the fact that most children with the disease are not seriously ill, there is no particular method of prevention. Proper hygienic measures, like regular handwashing, can be implemented as a routine method of prevention. Those who have been exposed or infected have been shown to shed the virus for the rest of their lives. Because of this, there are no current guidelines regarding children staying home or away from child-care when infected. Treatment Most cases of HHV-6 infection improve on their own. Because of this, supportive care is the mainstay treatment. The febrile phase can be managed using acetaminophen to control fever and prevent spikes in temperature which can lead to febrile seizures. In the case of febrile seizures, medical advice should be sought, and treatment aggressively pursued. Antiepileptic drugs are not recommended for patients who develop seizures from Roseola. Once children have entered the rash phase, reassurance is important as this indicates resolution of the infection. If encephalitis occurs in immunocompromised children, ganciclovir or foscarnet have inconsistently shown usefulness in treatment. Treatment of children who are immunocompromised centers around decreasing their levels of immunosuppression as much as possible. Prognosis Children infected with roseola generally have a good prognosis. Most recover without intervention and without long-term effects. Epidemiology Between the two types of human herpesvirus 6, HHV-6B has been detected much more frequently in hosts. HHV-6B has been shown to affect about 90% of children before the age of 3. Out of these, 20% develop symptoms of roseola, also known as exanthem subitum. Roseola affects girls and boys equally worldwide year-round. Roseola typically affects children between six months and two years of age, with peak prevalence in children between 7 and 13 months old. This correlates with the decrease in maternal antibodies, thus virus protection, that occurs at the age of 6 months. Out of all emergency department visits for children between the ages of 6 months and 12 months who have fever, twenty percent of these are due to HHV-6. Many children who have been exposed and infected can present without symptoms, which makes determining the incidence within the population difficult. History John Zahorsky MD wrote extensively on this disease in the early 20th century, his first formal presentation was to the St Louis Pediatric society in 1909 where he described 15 young children with the illness. In a JAMA article published on Oct 18, 1913 he noted that "the name 'Roseola infantilis' had an important place in the medical terminology of writers on skin diseases" but that descriptions of the disease by previous writers tended to confuse it with many other diseases that produce febrile rashes. In this JAMA article Zahorsky reports on 29 more children with Roseola and notes that the only condition that should seriously be considered in the differential diagnosis is German Measles (rubella) but notes that the fever of rubella only lasts a few hours whereas the prodromal fever of Roseola lasts three to five days and disappears with the formation of a morbilliform rash. Names Research HHV-6 has been tentatively linked with neurodegenerative diseases.

Ahmed Fathy Abdelmonem Ahmed Ibrahim (; born 10 November 1984) is an Egyptian professional footballer who plays for Pyramids. Born in Banha, he usually plays in the right back role for club and country. He started his career with Egyptian side Ismaily SC before moving to England to play in the Premier League with Sheffield United in 2007. Fathy returned to Egypt after only a few months however, signing to Al Ahly where he has remained until April 2020 where he signed to Pyramids FC, whilst also spending some time on loan at both Kuwait side Kazma and Hull City back in England. Alongside his club career, Fathy has represented Egypt since 2002, playing over one hundred games and scoring nine goals for his country. Considered one of Africa's all time best right backs, winning the Africa cup of nations three times in a row - 2006,2008, and 2010 Club career Early career: Ismaily and Sheffield United Fathy played as a midfielder and right back for Ismaily in Egypt, where he won the 2001–02 Egyptian Premier League. In early 2007, Egyptian newspaper Al-Ahram reported that Fathy's club had accepted Sheffield United's £700,000 offer for the player, and after a number of weeks of protracted negotiations, Fathy signed a three and a half year contract on 24 January 2007. Fathy made his Premier League debut for United as a substitute in the closing minutes of a 2–1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur at Bramall Lane on 10 February 2007, and made his full first team debut at Anfield against Liverpool on 24 February 2007, but failed to hold down a regular spot for the Blades. Al Ahly Fathy had been linked with a move to the Egyptian club El Zamalek for 2 million Euro after discussions with Sheffield United's management, but the player refused the transfer even though the clubs had agreed a fee – with Fathy insisting he wanted to continue his career as a professional player outside of Egypt. However, El Zamalek's Egyptian rivals Al Ahly succeeded in gaining Fathy's consent for a move and Sheffield United's agreement to a deal. On 10 September 2007 Fathy joined El-Ahly for a fee of £675,000 after making just three senior appearances for United in the eight months he had spent with the club. Fathy had been signed after the transfer window in Egypt had closed however, and with Al-Ahly being unable to register him to play until the following January, they looked to place Fathy on loan outside of the country to help to regain match fitness. Al Ahly managed to broker a deal with Kuwaiti side Kazma to accept the player on a loan, where Fathy played regularly for the first team, scoring four goals. Fathy finally made his Al Ahly debut in an away game against Arab Contractors on 10 March 2008, and went on to become Ahly's first choice in central midfield alongside Hossam Ashour. Following the departure of Ahmed Sedik in 2009, Fathy was moved to right back where he once again became a regular for the team. Loan to Hull City In January 2013, English Championship side Hull City expressed an interest in signing Fathy, along with his teammate Gedo, on loan until the end of the 2012–13 season. On 31 January 2013, Hull City had finalized a six-month loan deal for Fathy and Gedo, with Hull paying £500,000 for each player's services. Fathy made his debut on 16 February 2013 at home in a 1–0 win against Charlton Athletic, appearing as a second-half substitute for Paul McShane. Umm Salal He left Al Ahly after his contract expired in June 2014 and joined Umm Salal in Qatar in August 2014 after an unsuccessful trial with English giants Arsenal. Return to Al Ahly Fathy rejoined Al Ahly in 2015. In April 2020, he decided to leave the club by the end of the season. Pyramids FC On 11 April 2020, Pyramids FC announced that Fathy would be joining their side at the end of the season on a free transfer after Al Ahly's failure of securing a contract renewal with the 35 year old defender. This transfer resulted in mixed feelings toward Fathy from Al Ahly fans, who have previously lost another star of the team, Abdallah El Said, to Pyramids. International career Fathy became Egypt's youngest ever international when he was capped at 17 years old in 2001 against South Africa. Fathi was picked for the National team by Egyptian Coach Mohsen Saleh even before playing in his club's first team Ismaily SC, although this followed soon after, and was then called up for the Egyptian youth team. Fathy was a member of the Egyptian youth team that won the African Youth Cup 2003 in Burkina Faso, and was part of the Egypt squad at the FIFA U-20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates in 2003, and at one point Fathi was part of Egypt's U-20, U-23 and senior squads at the same time. Fathy was also part of the Egypt squad that won the Africa Cup of Nations at the Cairo International Stadium in 2006, when they beat Ivory Coast on penalties in the final. In the 2010 Africa Cup of Nations, Fathy was named as the fair player of the tournament and he was named in the team of the tournament. In May 2018, he was named in Egypt's squad for the 2018 World Cup in Russia. He scored an own goal in the match against Russia.

Springwells Township is a defunct civil township in Wayne County, in the U.S. state of Michigan. All of the land is now incorporated as part of the cities of Detroit and Dearborn. Springwells is also famously known as the birthplace of Henry Ford. History Springwells Township was formed by an act of the territorial governor Lewis Cass on January 5, 1818, but the boundaries were not firmly designated until 1827. The township was named for the many natural springs in the area. Earlier, French explorers had named the area "Belle-Fontaine," French for "Beautiful Fountain." In 1815, the "sand hill at Springwells" was the site of the signing of the Treaty of Springwells, which was attended by future U.S. President William Henry Harrison. In 1842, the U.S. Army began construction of Fort Wayne at the Detroit River, now listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Partitioned many times, by the 1850s Springwells Township bordered Detroit to its east, Greenfield Township to its north, Redford Township to its northwest, Dearborn Township to its west, Ecorse Township to its south, and the Detroit River to its east. According to the research of author Richard Bak, there was a series of unsolved deaths in the 1880s that occurred under suspicious circumstances.

He played eight straight matches before missing out for the club's Round 12 clash with . He kicked goals in six of those matches including two goals in rounds 5 and 7 and three goals in round 9 against . For his performance in that match he received his first Brownlow Medal vote. Edwards finished the season having again played 16 matches, but with one more goal and 20 more disposals than the previous year. 2009 season 2009 began with Edwards in the club's best 22, where he stayed through the first three rounds of the season. But a six disposal performance in round 3 saw him dropped to reserves level where he stayed until Round 7. He did not get selected the following week however, and remained at reserves level until the midway point of the season. But when coach Terry Wallace was sacked prior to Round 12, Edwards saw new opportunity under caretaker Jade Rawlings. He was selected to play in Round 12 and kicked two goals to go with 17 disposals and six tackles in the club's win over at the Telstra Dome. He did not miss a game for the rest of the season, recording an average of 13.6 disposals a game over the back half. 2010 season Ahead of the 2010 season incoming coach Damien Hardwick assured Edwards that his development was a club priority, promising he would be selected in all 22 of the club's home and away matches that season. He played in the club's first two matches of the season before playing his 50th career match in Round 3 against . He recorded his first ever 20 disposal performance in that match.

For his break-out season Edwards placed sixth in the club's best and fairest count. 2011 season Having cemented a spot in the club's best 22 the year prior, Edwards played in each of the first eight matches of the 2011 season, including with a career best tally of nine marks in round 4 against . However, in Round 8, he injured his cheekbone in a centre-square collision at the opening bounce.

When he returned in Round 12 he would again secure his place, playing in the final 12 matches of the season and finishing the season with 20 games and four goals. 2012 season In a January 2012 time trial Edwards placed fourth of all Richmond players and maintained his claim as one of the club's most damaging runners. He played in the first three matches of the season before missing in rounds 4 and 5. When he returned in round 6 he did not leave the side, playing in each of the last 17 matches of the season. He held a multiple goal streak of six games when he kicked four lots of two and two lots of three goals between Rounds 8 and 14.

With Richmond's bye the following week he was able to recover and avoid missing a match as a result of the injury. He did however miss matches in Rounds 20, 21 and 23 before returning fully fit to play in his first final, a losing effort against Carlton at the MCG. At years end he had played 20 matches, kicked 11 goals and set a then career-best tackles per-game mark. He placed 14th in the club's best and fairest that season. 2014 season 2014 would prove an exceptional year for Edwards, but one which included a form reversal after a relatively slow start. After playing in Richmond's first six matches of the season Edwards would be played as Richmond's substitute in its Round 7 match against . Despite the setback he ultimately kicked two goals in just 39 per cent time on ground. In late May he signed a new two-year contract extension, forgoing the lure of unrestricted free-agency. By Round 15 he began to turn an average season into a special one, with a 20 disposal and six clearance match against St Kilda. He was later named among the club's best players for a 21 disposal and one goal performance against the in Round 21. Edwards then played his 150th AFL match in Richmond's Round 22 win over .

At season's end Edwards was awarded the Fred Swift Medal for placing fourth in the club's best and fairest count in 2014. He was also awarded Richmond life membership in December that year after celebrating his 150th match for the club at AFL level. 2015 season As with the back-half of 2014, Edwards would again attend centre-bounces and play a predominately midfield role in the 2015 season. He started the season by recording 21 disposals together with game highs in clearances (7) and contested possessions (15) in Richmond's win over at the MCG. He received six votes (second to only Taylor Hunt) in the AFL Coaches Association award for the match. He missed Round 2 with calf tightness but made a quick return to kick a goal and rack up 26 disposals in Round 3's win over Brisbane. The Richmond club website named him the Tigers' best on ground the following week after he recorded 24 disposals, two goals, seven clearances and five tackles in the Round 4 Anzac Day eve clash against . After six rounds he held averages of 22 disposals, five tackles and one goal per game. He again missed a match in Round 7, this time with a corked calf.

At the mid-season bye Edwards held averages of 21.6 disposals, 0.88 goals, 4.4 tackles and 4.6 clearances per game and was considered in the discussion for end of season All Australian honours. In Round 13 Edwards was bumped off the ball in an incident that saw Sydney forward Lance Franklin suspended for one week. Edwards was named among Richmond's best players for a two-goal game, 24 disposal performance in Round 14 against the GWS Giants. He was substituted in the third quarter of the next week's match after suffering a lower leg injury. Scans later revealed he had sustained a hairline fracture in his right fibula and initial estimates placed a two to three week timeline on recovery. He ultimately missed five matches of AFL football, before returning in the club's Round 21 win over Collingwood. For the third straight season Edwards played in a losing elimination final with the club. He was this time the subject of some controversy when no free kick was paid for his tackle on 's Ben Cunnington deep in the Richmond forward line late in the match's fourth quarter. Coach Damien Hardwick called the non-decision "diabolical" while AFL umpiring boss Hayden Kennedy later admitted the call was incorrect and should have been rewarded with a free kick on goal. 2016 season In addition to signing a fresh contract extension, Edwards' 2015-16 off season saw him added to the club's five-man leadership group. In the pre-season Edwards was moved to a more permanent forward role, a switch endorsed by Network Seven commentator and Richmond club legend Matthew Richardson. Edwards suffered a bruised collarbone in the final pre-season match of the year and faced a reduced training load in the lead up to Round 1. Though he did indeed play Round 1, he suffered another injury during the match, this time in the form of a fractured hand. Despite needing surgery to repair it, Edwards would miss only one match as a result of the injury. In Round 6 Edwards recorded a career high 10 clearances in Richmond's loss to Port Adelaide . He kicked three goals in Round 12 against , his first such haul since Round 23, 2012. Edwards suffered a calf injury at training in late July and would miss two games as a result. At season's end Edwards held averages of 18.7 disposals and 0.8 goals per game. He placed equal 12th in the club's best and fairest count. 2017 season Edwards entered 2017 as Richmond's longest tenured player following the off-season departure of Brett Deledio to Greater Western Sydney. Despite this he was removed from the club leadership group when it was reduced down from five players to three. He would play in the first two matches of the season before a hip injury sustained in the late stages of Round 2 held him out from football the following week. After five weeks of rehab he returned to play in Round 8. During Round 10's Dreamtime at the 'G clash with Essendon, Edwards swapped his number 10 guernsey for the number 67. In doing so he became one of a handful of players across the league that round to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the 1967 referendum which, among other things, changed the constitution to allow Indigenous Australians to be counted with the general population in the census. Through the mid-season bye he had played six matches and held averages of 17.3 disposals, 0.8 goals and 2.8 tackles per game. He did not miss a match from that point until the end of the season, including playing in his 200th career match in round 19 against the Gold Coast Suns. He thus became the 27th person to play 200 games at Richmond and the first indigenous player at Richmond to do so. When September came, Edwards kicked a goal, had 24 disposals and set a personal season best tally with six marks in his side's qualifying final win over Geelong. He performed strongly in the following preliminary final too, winning 10 contested possessions and playing a key link-up role in the win over the GWS Giants. Though it was not known publicly at the time, he sustained a broken finger in that match, the result of which saw him unable to complete simple tasks like holding a fork. Despite the injury Edwards turned in one of the best performances of his career in the Grand Final, leading the team for clearances and inside 50s and earning two votes in the best afield voting to finish equal third behind only Bachar Houli and winner Dustin Martin. Edwards finished the match with 13 contested possessions and a total 25 disposals, including eight in the crucial second quarter alone. Richmond would ultimately win out over minor premiers Adelaide by 48 points and make Edwards a premiership player in his 11th season and 207th AFL match. During that finals series he ranked second at the club for AFL Player Rating points. 2018 season During the 2017/18 off-season Edwards was named by the AFL's official stat keeper Champion Data as "elite" in the midfielder-forward role, one of three such players in the league. During this time he also faced a restricted training program, having his hand in a splint until late December as a result of a broken thumb sustain in the previous year's finals series. Despite this setback he showed no apparent drop in form, playing in each of the club's first three matches of the season. He was recognised among the matches' best players when he received four votes in the Coaches Association award tally in round 4's win over . Edwards was again a key player in round 5, this time recording 26 disposals and five clearances in the ANZAC Day eve match against . He did however receive the negative attention of the AFL's Match Review Officer, attracting a $2,000 fine for rough conduct on Neville Jetta in the second quarter of that match. After seven rounds of the 2018 season Edwards was ranked first in the league for goal assists (23), a whole seven assists above the league's next best. He was also at this time labelled by Fox Footy analyst David King as a "silent assassin" for his ability to gain ground with stealthy forward handball. In round 11's Dreamtime at the 'G match against Edwards recorded a career best 31 disposals, added seven score assists and kicked two goals in a performance that saw him receive the Yiooken Award as clear best on ground. In doing so he became the first Indigenous player to win the award in its 13-year history. After that match Richmond head coach Damien Hardwick labelled Edwards one of the best players in the club's history, saying "he'll go down as one of the greats of our footy club". The following week he added another two goals and was named by AFL Media as one of Richmond's best, this time in an away loss to . After 12 rounds, Edwards ranked 38th in the league under the AFL Player Ratings system, having ranked 101st at the same point of the year previous. In round 16's win over he turned in another fantastic performance with 28 disposals and two goals that saw him split best on ground honours with teammate Kane Lambert according to the AFL Coaches association award voting. His efforts in that match were ranked as the second best among all players in the league that round according to the AFL PLayer Ratings system. That saw him continue to rise up the ratings system, to rank as the 24th best player overall in the league. Edwards was again named among Richmond's best in round 19, this time for a 22 disposal and one goal game against . After round 20, Edwards was ranked by Champion Data as the league's 11th best player so far that season, despite having been ranked the 104th best on a two-year basis as recently as round 15. He also held the fifth-best kicking efficiency among midfielders and ranked number one overall for metres gained by handball with 1290 metres, close to double the second-placed Adam Treloar (735 metres). Edwards finished the home and away season having played in all of Richmond's 22 matches for the first time since 2014. At season's end Edwards was selected to a bench spot on the 2018 All-Australian team. He was also named at half-forward in the AFL's Player Ratings team of the year and was one of three Richmond players nominated for the AFL Players Association's Most Valuable Player award. Edwards contributed a goal and 14 disposals in Richmond's qualifying final win over in the finals series' opening week before adding 14 disposals in the club's season-ending shock preliminary final loss to . Following the conclusion of the 2018 finals series, Edwards was named by the Herald Sun's chief football writer Mark Robinson as the league's 47th best player during the 2018 season. He finished the year ranked second in the league for goals assists (31) and 18th for score involvements (152) and placed fourth in Richmond's best and fairest award. 2019 season Ahead of the 2019 season, Edwards was named by Champion Data as the league's best midfielder/forward and the 17th best player overall under the AFL's Player Ratings System. Edwards started the 2019 season with appearances in each of the club's two pre-season matches before recording 22 disposals in round 1's season-opening match against . He kicked two goals in round 2 and also received a $2000 fine for striking 's Adam Treloar in that loss. Following injuries to captain Trent Cotchin and vice-captains Jack Riewoldt and Alex Rance, Edwards was appointed to captain Richmond for the first time in round 4. He led the side to an improbable win in that match against , despite the absence of those leaders as well as Brownlow Medalist Dustin Martin. Edwards shifted into a half-back role for the win, recording 23 disposals and 11 intercepts while earning four AFL Coaches Association votes as the third best player on the ground. He continued in his role at half-back and as acting captain the following week, this time collecting 28 disposals, six coaches votes and earning a place in AFL Medias Team of the Week. Edwards relinquished the captaincy to the returning Riewoldt in round 6, before a new injury to the forward forced Edwards to again captain the side in round 7. Two weeks later he earned seven coaches award votes for 26 disposals, eight intercepts and eight score involvements in a win over . Seven more coaches votes followed in round 10's Dreamtime at the 'G win, Edwards' last as Richmond captain which brought his record in the role to six wins and one loss. Edwards was a gameday omission in round 13, with hamstring tendonitis forcing him to miss his first match through injury since round 7, 2017. He returned after missing one match and following the club's mid-season bye, having been named by AFL Media during that time as a mid-season contender for a second straight All-Australian selection. Edwards returned to a role through the midfield and half-forward for round 16's win over , collecting 25 disposals and four inside-50s. Barring one match against in round 18 where he played in defence, Edward remained in the midfield and forward lines for the later part of the season, including in round 20 when he collected an equal career-best 31 disposals while playing as an inside midfielder. In round 21 he became the 250th player in AFL/VFL history to reach 250 games and the 15th player to reach the same milestone in matches for Richmond. He was among Richmond's best players in that match, recording 27 disposals and a goal to earn six votes in the coaches association award. Edwards improved that mark the following week, earning eight votes as the second best on ground for a performance that included a goal, 29 disposals and a career-best 11 clearances. In that match he also passed Australian Football Hall of Fame Legend Kevin Sheedy for the most games played in the number 10 guernsey by any player at Richmond. At the end of the home and away season Edwards was named in the AFL's Player Ratings team of the year and in the best 22 in Fox Footy football reporter Tom Morris' team of the year. Despite that, he was left out of the squad of 40 players for the All-Australian team and was recognised by Fox Footy as one of the league's most glaring omissions. Edwards was one of the best players on field during his side's road qualifying final win over the , kicking a goal and collecting eight clearances, 18 contested possessions and 29 disposals including 13 in the decisive third quarter. He received nine coaches votes for the performance as equal-best on ground. Edwards was somewhat quieter in the preliminary final a fortnight later, finishing with 18 possessions and a goal assist as his side defeated and earned a grand final berth against . He turned in what AFL Media described as "another excellent performance" in the grand final, collecting 21 disposals, six tackles and six clearances as Richmond defeated the Giants by 89 points to win a second premiership in three seasons. Though he did not receive a vote in the official Norm Smith Medal count for best afield, Edwards was named the third best player of the game by the AFL's statistical Official Player Ratings At the conclusion of the finals he ranked as the league's best general defender by Champion Data, despite his use across multiple positions that season. He led Richmond for contested possessions, stoppage clearances and tackles during the three finals that year and finished the whole year ranked third at the club for total contested possessions and clearances. Edwards placed second in the club's best and fairest count, a career-best placing that saw him awarded him the Jack Titus Medal. He was also named as the league's 26th best player in the Herald Sun chief football reporter Mark Robinson's list of the league's best players in 2019. 2020 season Over the 2019/20 off-season, Edwards was rated by AFL statistics partner Champion Data in the top-tier "elite" category among midfielder-forwards. He played his first match for the year in the AFL's fundraising State of Origin for Bushfire Relief Match in February, representing his home state of South Australia as part of the allied All-Stars side. He sat out 's first pre-season match that same weekend but returned for the club's final pre-season match against a week later. Despite an uninterrupted pre-season, the rapid progression of the coronavirus pandemic into Australia by mid-March saw the future of the season in doubt, including Edwards and 's premiership defence. The AFL commission eventually announced the start of the season would proceed as scheduled, but without fans in attendance due to public health prohibitions on group gatherings. With the expectation that a significant break would be necessary mid-season, the league also announced the season would be completed with a modified 17-round fixture and with quarter lengths reduced by one fifth to reduce the load on players who would be expected to play multiple matches with short breaks in the back half of the year. Edwards kicked the opening goal of the season and was named by AFL Media among Richmond's best players under those conditions in round 1's win over . Just three days later however, the AFL commission suspended the season after multiple states enforced quarantine conditions on their borders that effectively ruled out the possibility of continuing the season as planned. Edwards recorded 13 disposals in a draw with when the season resumed in early June after an 11-week hiatus, and was among his side's best players with 24 disposals and a goal in a loss to a fortnight after that. He played one further match before a virus outbreak in Melbourne caused the club to relocate to the Gold Coast. With a heavily pregnant partner, Edwards elected to remain in Melbourne where he trained with other non-travelling clubmates while awaiting the birth of his baby daughter in August. Following the birth, Edwards entered Queensland quarantine in September as a member of the AFL's final travelling party of the year. He trained there for a two-week period alongside Gary Ablett Jr. and Dan Hannebery before immediately earning selection in Richmond's regular-season-ending round 18 win over . Edwards was best on ground in that win, earning nine coaches award votes for a performance that included four score involvements and a game-high eight clearances. After a quiet showing in a qualifying final loss to the to open the finals series, Edwards was back to his match-winning best with 21 disposals, five clearances and two goals in a semi-final win over one week later. Fox Footy labeled his output 'crucial' in the six-point preliminary final win over that followed, despite recording a season-low 11 disposals. He became a three-time premiership played the following week, helping his side to a 31-point grand final victory over . Edwards placed third in the Norm Smith Medal voting for his excellent performance in the win, after recording a game-high nine clearances and a personal season-best 27 disposals. He also secured equal-fifth place in the Gary Ayres Award for the finals series best player. 2021 season Edwards entered the 2021 season ranked in the 'elite' category among the league's midfielder-forwards by the AFL's official statistical partner Champion Data. He played in Richmond's one unofficial and one official pre-season match in late-February and early-March before recording 27 disposals and eight score involvements in the club's round 1 win over . In round 3 he played his 268th career game, tying Chris Newman to move into 10th place on the Richmond club leaderboard. Edwards was equal-second best on ground two weeks later, attracting five coaches votes for a performance that included 29 disposals, seven clearances and a goal. He was again impressive in round 8, being named among his side's best players by AFL Media in a loss to despite being substituted out of the game in the second half as a result of an ankle injury. The injury was later revealed to be a deltoid ligament injury, and treatment saw him ruled out from playing over the next three weeks. He initially completed injury rehabilitation in Melbourne despite the playing side being relocated out of the state temporarily as a result of a COVID-19 outbreak in Melbourne, before joining his teammates in time to play in the club's round 12 Dreamtime in Perth match against . He did so in a guernsey he helped to design and which partly told the story of his Indigenous heritage. Player profile Edwards is a versatile player, playing the early part of his career as a forward but featuring in three Richmond premiership sides as an inside midfielder. In 2018 he earned All-Australian selection while being rated the second best midfielder-forward in the league by Champion Data and while he led the league for goal assists. He is among the most damaging handballers in the game, having led the league for metres gained by handball in 2018. In 2019, teammate Jack Riewoldt called Edwards the best handballer he had ever seen. In 2019 injuries to many of Richmond's key players saw Edwards used as a half-back for the first time in his career, before return to various midfield and forward roles for the second half of that season. In 2020, the Herald Sun labelled Edwards the eighth best Richmond player of the AFL era. Edwards has played more games for Richmond than any other Indigenous player in club history.

Himmel og helvete (Heaven and Hell) is a 1969 Norwegian propaganda film about illegal drugs. It was directed by Øyvind Vennerød with a screenplay by Vennerød and Victor Borg. The film was poorly received by the critics, but it nonetheless became one of the highest-grossing theater films in Norway in 1969. Lillebjørn Nilsen and Sigrid Huun played the main characters Arne and Eva. Plot The film's action takes place in Oslo. It begins with a housewife coming home and finding her daughter Ingrid half-dead from using unspecified illegal drugs. The daughter dies a few hours later in the hospital. While the police search Ingrid's room, the drug dealer Johan shows up. The police find him suspicious, but they have no authority to arrest him. It later turns out that Johan works for the Yugoslav drug dealer Zatek, who smuggles hashish from Sweden using car tires. The student Oddvar also appears in the story; he also works for Zatek. Later in the film, we meet two young people from the west end of Oslo, Eva and Arne, who hear the liberal psychologist Orheim claim that hashish is a safer drug than alcohol at a lecture during a high school assembly. At a party, the two young people together with some other students decide to smoke hashish that their friend Arne has stolen from his brother Oddvar. After smoking cannabis a couple of times, Eva and Arne want to get more. They first smoke the rest of what was left after the party. Later, Arne steals hashish from Oddvar, and at the same time Eva loses interest in her schoolwork. In desperation, both students ask Oddvar where they can get more hashish—to which Oddvar mentions Zatek, who works out of Club 13 (a reference to Club 7). Eva goes to bed with Zatek to get hashish. Zatek later becomes suspicious and kills Oddvar with a knife. While Eva's parents try to find out what is wrong with their daughter, and hear about Orheim's lecture at Club 13, Arne and Eva establish a connection with some hippies in Palace Park. They both spend the night with their new acquaintances in a condemned apartment in downtown Oslo. Zatek is deported to Sweden after the authorities suspect that he is behind the murder of Oddvar. Eva, on the other hand, is admitted to a detox clinic. After a while, Eva escapes with Arne to Copenhagen to try new drugs. When Eva's mother learns that her daughter has run away, she is shocked. Eva's father kills Orheim with a paperweight. In Denmark, Eva and Lars end up in money trouble, and Eva begins prostituting herself to earn money for more drugs. During a wild LSD trip, Arne jumps from the roof over his hotel window and dies. The film ends with Eva in an LSD trip seeing herself in the mirror as a skinned corpse.

Peace Love Ukulele is Jake Shimabukuro's 2011 solo album. It was released in January 2011, and reached #1 in Billboard'''s Top World Music Albums in 2011 and 2012. In Hawaii, Peace Love Ukulele'' won the 2012 Na Hoku Hanohano Award for Instrumental Album of the Year, and also garnered Shimabukuro the Na Hoku Hanohano award for Favorite Entertainer of the Year. AllMusic praised Shimabukuro's covers of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" and "Bohemian Rhapsody", while also noting that "his own original compositions" are "actually more ambitious". Track title information "143 (Kelly's Song)": The subtitle "Kelly's Song" is a reference to Shimabukuro's then-fiancée, Kelly Yamasato. The couple were married in May 2011. "143" was inspired by Jake’s years in high school when cell phones and texting didn't exist. Cool kids generally had a pager, with numeric codes, and "143" was the numeric code for "I love you." "Bring Your Adz": An adz is a small ancient Hawaiian tool for cutting that resembles a small axe. In rock n' roll, players usually refer to their guitars as their axe. Jake explained, "I remember hearing people say, 'Bring your axe to the gig.' I guess 'Bring your adz' is the ukulele version of the expression." "Go For Broke" was inspired by World War II Japanese-American veterans (the 442nd, 100th, 1399th, and MIS). "Go For Broke", which means "to risk everything on one great effort to win big", was the motto of the Japanese-American soldiers from Hawaii who were the first to volunteer to fight overseas, proving their loyalty to America and securing a better life for all Asian-Americans currently living in the U.S. Track listing All tracks composed by Jake Shimabukuro except where noted.

Rhododendron atlanticum, the dwarf azalea or coastal azalea, is a species of Rhododendron native to coastal areas of the eastern United States, from New Jersey south to Georgia. It is a deciduous shrub tall, forming a thick understory in forests, spreading by underground stolons. The leaves are 3–5 cm long and 1–2 cm broad, bluish green, and hairless or with scattered glandular hairs. The fragrant flowers are 3–4 cm long, usually white to pink, sometimes with a flush of yellow; they are produced in trusses of 4-10 together. It is a very tough subject, responding to overgrazing or forest fires by throwing up new shoots the following year.

Husham Al-Husainy is an Iraqi-American Sheikh of the Karbalaa Islamic Education Center, a Shia mosque servicing largely people of Iraqi and Lebanese descent in Dearborn, Michigan. Al-Husainy arrived in the United States in the late 1970s as Saddam Hussein was rising into power. He is a spokesman of the Iraqi expatriate community in America. During the American occupation of Iraq, Al-Husainy has gone from supporting the toppling of Hussein's regime to criticizing the continued occupation as inciting more bloodshed. Karbaala Islamic Education Center Imam Husham Al-Husainy has been active in community affairs for more than 25 years in the metro-Detroit area. He is the Director of the Karbalaa Islamic Education Center. The Imam has been involved in many domestic and international meetings. He is always in contact with the Iraqi refugees that seek services at his center. A community of about 15,000 Iraqis that migrated from Saudi Arabia and the surrounding countries has improved rapidly over the short period of time as residents. Since the fall of the Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein the Iraqis at home have been given a chance to go back to their homeland and visit their families. Imam Husham al-huainy's vision to build and maintain services for the growing community has been quite a challenge, although with the help of the Muslim communities in Dearborn, and the cities surrounding Michigan they have become one of the most influential mosques in the region. Politics Many of the Arab-Americans in Michigan were generally associated with Republican policies prior to September 11, 2001 and the Iraq War. However, the Iraq War turned opinions against the Republicans to a degree. Al-Hussainy was invited to give the invocation to the Democratic National Committee's Annual Winter Meeting in Washington, D.C. in 2006. Al-Husainy has cooperated with the United States on security measures for instance in a recent case where it has been alleged that Detroit area resident, Najib Shemami, was a spy.

The High Rhön Road () runs through the Bavarian Rhön from Bischofsheim an der Rhön to Fladungen (south to north). It bears the state road number St 2288, is 25 kilometres long, runs over the central highlands of the Rhön, known as the Long Rhön, and is an important communication link in the High Rhön. In winter the High Rhön Road in the Long Rhön is often closed due to heavy snowfall and winds that block the road with snowdrifts. History The High Rhön Road was planned in the 1930s and construction began at the outset of the Second World War. The work was carried out by the Reichsarbeitsdienst, but it was gravelled and not tarmacked until after the end of the war. The counties of Bad Neustadt and Mellrichstadt agreed in 1958 to take over the road and upgrade it. With considerably help from the treasury of the Free State of Bavaria it was surfaced with tarmac. The High Rhön Road was opened to traffic by the then Bavarian State Secretary for the Interior Ministry, Alfons Goppel, on 19 October 1958 in a ceremony in Fladungen. Route The kilometrage of the High Rhön Road runs from Bischofsheim towards Fladungen. The zero point lies in Bischofsheim in the upper Brend valley at the crossroads with the St 2088 at a height of about 440 metres above sea level (NN). The High Rhön Road climbs steadily from there, crosses the B 279 at 476 meters above sea level and runs in curves, following the Schwarzbach stream, up to the Bauersberg and past the Rothsee at kilometre 4 by and past the Holzberghof Hunting Lodge at kilometre 6. From here the High Rhön Road enters the Rhön Biosphere Reserve at about 800 metres above sea level and reaches the highlands of the Rhön (Long Rhön). From here parking is only permitted at designated car parks and there is a reduced winter service (no salting). The High Rhön Road runs about 840 metres east past the 926-metrek-high Heidelstein. From the east it is joined by the road from Ginolfs. A central crossing point in the High Rhön is at the Schornhecke, on the northern slopes of the Heidelstein, at kilometre 10. Here the road is joined by the St 2286 from Oberelsbach to the east, and by the Landstraße (L) 3395 Wüstensachsen in the state of Hesse. The road runs eastwards past the Steinkopf (888 m) and the Stirnberg (902 m) and continues to the Black Moor. On this section it is joined from the east by roads from the Thuringian Hut (Thüringer Hütte), from Roth, Hillenberg and Hausen. At the Black Moor, at kilometre 18 and a height of 787 metres, the High Rhön Road leaves the Long Rhön and biosphere reserve and winds its way down to Fladungen. At kilometre 25 and roughly 410 metres above sea level, the High Rhön Road ends at its junction with the B 285. The highest point of the High Rhön Road is about 840 metres above sea level at a point east of the Heidelstein and the Stirnberg. The route runs east of the main crest of the High Rhön.

Thomas Coyne (born 14 November 1962) is a former football player and manager. Coyne played for several clubs, mostly in Scotland, including Clydebank, Dundee United, Dundee, Celtic and Motherwell. He was the top goalscorer of the Scottish Premier Division three times, a feat he achieved with three clubs (Dundee, Celtic and Motherwell). Coyne played international football for the Republic of Ireland, qualifying due to his Irish ancestry. Towards the end of his playing career he was also the manager of Clydebank, a position he left after six months. Club career Coyne was raised in Govan as a supporter of Celtic and attracted the attention of their scouts in his teens, though no move materialised. He had already turned down Dundee United in the hope of joining Celtic. Coyne has stated that he would never have signed for Rangers, whose stadium was very close to his home and school, as he was a Catholic, which contravened their signing policy of the time. He played for Hillwood Boys Club before starting his professional career at Clydebank, where he made his debut in the 1981–82 season, scoring 9 goals in 31 matches. Scoring in 38 matches in his second season, he began the 1983–84 season with 10 in 11 games before being sold to Dundee United, then a force in Scottish football as part of the New Firm and the defending league champions, for £65,000. However, Coyne failed to reproduce his Clydebank form at Tannadice and scored only 9 goals in 62 league games, though he did score a few goals in the UEFA Cup during the club's run to the 1987 final. Halfway through the 1986–87 season he was transferred to city rivals Dundee for £75,000 and found his scoring boots again, notching up 9 goals in 20 games in the second half of the season and forming an effective partnership with fellow new signing Keith Wright, earning them the nicknames "The cobra" and "the Mongoose". In the 1987–88 season Coyne was top scorer in the Premier Division as he scored 33 goals in 43 matches, a total which earned him third place in the European Golden Boot contest. After scoring 9 goals in 20 matches at the start of the 1988–89 season he was sold on to Celtic for £500,000, the largest transfer fee Dundee had received. Coyne again failed to carry on his scoring form at the start of his Celtic career and did not score for the remainder of the season. The following campaign was also hardly a success, with 7 goals in 23 games. However the next season, 1990–91, saw him revert to good form with 18 goals in 26 games, as he finished as the division's top scorer. Despite scoring 15 goals in the following season and three in ten games at the start of 1992–93, Coyne was allowed to transfer to Tranmere Rovers in March 1993 for a fee reported at £400,000, a record outlay for the Birkenhead club. After a short spell in England, Coyne returned to Scotland to join Motherwell in November 1993 for £125,000. They challenged for the title in his first campaign, eventually finishing third, and in 1994–95 he was again the Scottish Premier Division's top scorer (16 goals) as the club finished runners-up – he is the only player to achieve that feat with three clubs. Performing well alongside Dougie Arnott and fellow Glasgow-born Irish international Owen Coyle, he scored 61 goals in 156 games for Motherwell in all competitions. Coyne left for Dundee in 1998, where he was loaned out to Falkirk. He then returned to his first club, Clydebank, as player/manager in August 2000 and picked up the Scottish Second Division Manager of the Month award a month later. However, he was sacked after six months after the club had entered administration despite being near the top of Division Two. Soon after leaving Clydebank he joined Albion Rovers, where he ended his playing career. International career In his international career, Coyne won 22 caps for the Republic of Ireland and scored 6 goals. He made his international debut at the age of 31 on 25 March 1992 against Switzerland in a friendly played at Lansdowne Road, Dublin. This game was the international debut for Eddie McGoldrick and was Paul McGrath's fiftieth cap. Coyne waited just 27 minutes before scoring his first international goal. He was replaced by John Aldridge in the eightieth minute, who converted from the penalty spot to make it a 2–1 victory for the Republic. Thanks to good performances in warm-up fixtures including a win over the Netherlands and injury to Niall Quinn, Coyne started three of Ireland's four matches in the 1994 FIFA World Cup but he failed to score in the tournament although he was praised for his efforts particularity in an unexpected victory over Italy with the Irish matchwinner being another Glaswegian, Ray Houghton; Coyne was with Motherwell at the time and became the first serving player from that club to appear at the World Cup. His best game for Ireland was perhaps the 4–0 victory over Liechtenstein on 12 October 1994, played at Lansdowne Road, in which he scored two goals in the opening four minutes of the game but failed to achieve his hat-trick. He played his last game for the Republic, coming on as a substitute for David Connolly, in the 1–1 draw with Belgium on 29 October 1997. The game was the first leg of a playoff for qualification for the 1998 World Cup, Belgium won the second leg 2–1 and qualified for the 1998 World Cup. Managerial career After finishing his playing career, Coyne coached Junior club Bellshill Athletic. The club won the West Division One in 2003–04, but Coyne left the job in July 2005. Personal life Coyne's attempt to establish himself in English football in 1993 ended abruptly when his wife Alison died after consuming alcohol and painkillers. She had been suffering from post-natal depression following the birth of their third son. Coyne temporarily stopped playing football and had to return to Scotland to seek support from relatives in caring for his young children. Tranmere only recouped around a third of his transfer fee outlay from his next club Motherwell. His eldest son, also named Tommy, also became a footballer and striker who played for clubs in the lower senior leagues in Scotland and for Linlithgow Rose in the Junior grade, where he has gained a 'player of the year award' and scored 38 goals in the 2009–10 season, eventually going on to break scoring records at the club. Another son, Bradley, played for Stirling Albion in the Scottish Third Division. He has a third son from his first marriage and two younger children with his second wife Anita.

Cree (also known as Cree–Montagnais–Naskapi) is a dialect continuum of Algonquian languages spoken by approximately 117,000 people across Canada, from the Northwest Territories to Alberta to Labrador. If considered one language, it is the aboriginal language with the highest number of speakers in Canada. The only region where Cree has any official status is in the Northwest Territories, alongside eight other aboriginal languages. There, Cree is spoken mainly in Fort Smith and Hay River. Names Endonyms are: (Plains Cree) (Woods Cree) (Western Swampy Cree) (Eastern Swampy Cree) (Moose Cree) (Southern East Cree) (Northern East Cree) (Atikamekw) (Western Montagnais, Piyekwâkamî dialect) (Western Montagnais, Betsiamites dialect) (Eastern Montagnais) Origin and diffusion Cree is believed to have begun as a dialect of the Proto-Algonquian language spoken between 2,500 and 3,000 years ago in the original Algonquian homeland, an undetermined area thought to be near the Great Lakes. The speakers of the proto-Cree language are thought to have moved north, and diverged rather quickly into two different groups on each side of James Bay. The eastern group then began to diverge into separate dialects, whereas the western grouping probably broke into distinct dialects much later. After this point it is very difficult to make definite statements about how different groups emerged and moved around, because there are no written works in the languages to compare, and descriptions by Europeans are not systematic; as well, Algonquian people have a tradition of bilingualism and even of outright adopting a new language from neighbours. A traditional view among 20th-century anthropologists and historians of the fur trade posts that the Western Woods Cree and the Plains Cree (and therefore their dialects) did not diverge from other Cree peoples before 1670, when the Cree expanded out of their homeland near James Bay because of access to European firearms. By contrast, James Smith of the Museum of the American Indian stated, in 1987, that the weight of archeological and linguistic evidence puts the Cree as far west as the Peace River Region of Alberta before European contact. Loss of language Doug Cuthand argues three reasons for the loss of the Cree language among many speakers over the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. First, residential schools cultivated the prejudice that their language was inferior. While students were still speaking their native language at home, their learning stopped at school. When they left residential schools as adults, they went home and their vocabulary and knowledge of language did not include concepts or forms that an adult speaker who had not been taken to a residential school would have. Cuthand also argues that the loss of the Cree language can be attributed to the migration of native families away from the reserve, voluntarily or not. Oftentimes, the elders are left on the reserve. This breaks up the traditional intergenerational flow of lingual knowledge from elder to youth. The third point Cuthand argues is that Cree language loss was adopted by the speakers. Parents stopped teaching their children their native language in the belief that doing so would help their children find economic success or avoid discrimination. Dialect criteria The Cree dialect continuum can be divided by many criteria. Dialects spoken in northern Ontario and the southern James Bay, Lanaudière, and Mauricie regions of Quebec differentiate (sh as in she) and , while those to the west have merged the two phonemes as and in the east the phonemes are merged as either or . In several dialects, including northern Plains Cree and Woods Cree, the long vowels and have merged into a single vowel, . In the Quebec communities of Chisasibi, Whapmagoostui, and Kawawachikamach, the long vowel has merged with . However, the most transparent phonological variation between different Cree dialects are the reflexes of Proto-Algonquian *l in the modern dialects, as shown below: The Plains Cree, speakers of the y dialect, refer to their language as , whereas Woods Cree speakers say , and Swampy Cree speakers say . Another important phonological variation among the Cree dialects involves the palatalisation of Proto-Algonquian *k: East of the Ontario–Quebec border (except for Atikamekw), Proto-Algonquian *k has changed into or before front vowels. See the table above for examples in the * column. Very often the Cree dialect continuum is divided into two languages: Cree and Montagnais. Cree includes all dialects which have not undergone the *k > sound change (BC–QC) while Montagnais encompasses the territory where this sound change has occurred (QC–NL). These labels are very useful from a linguistic perspective but are confusing as East Cree then qualifies as Montagnais. For practical purposes, Cree usually covers the dialects which use syllabics as their orthography (including Atikamekw but excluding Kawawachikamach Naskapi), the term Montagnais then applies to those dialects using the Latin script (excluding Atikamekw and including Kawawachikamach Naskapi). The term Naskapi typically refers to Kawawachikamach (y-dialect) and Natuashish (n-dialect). Dialect groups The Cree dialects can be broadly classified into nine groups. Roughly from west to east: Phonology This table shows the possible consonant phonemes in the Cree language or one of its varieties. In dictionaries focused on Eastern Swampy Cree, Western Swampy Cree may readily substitute with , while Lowland Moose Cree may readily substitute with their . In dictionaries focused on Southern Plains Cree, Northern Plains Cree may readily substitute with , while materials accommodating Rocky Cree will indicate the Plains Cree that is in Rocky Cree as . Similarly, in dictionaries focused on Western Swampy Cree, Woods Cree may readily substitute with , while materials accommodating Woods Cree will indicate the Western Swampy Cree that is in Woods Cree as . Atikamekw uses [], [], and [] (which also serves as []). Eastern James Bay Cree prefers to indicate long vowels (other than ) by doubling the vowel, while the western Cree use either a macron or circumflex diacritic; as is always long, often it is written as just without doubling or using a diacritic. While Western Cree dialects make use of and either or , Eastern Cree dialects instead make use of and either , , or . Syntax Cree features a complex polysynthetic morphosyntax. A common grammatical feature in Cree dialects, in terms of sentence structure, is non-regulated word order. Word order is not governed by a specific set of rules or structure; instead, "subjects and objects are expressed by means of inflection on the verb". Subject, Verb, and Object (SVO) in a sentence can vary in order, for example, SVO, VOS, OVS, and SOV. Obviation is also a key aspect of the Cree language(s). In a sense, the obviative can be defined as any third-person ranked lower on a hierarchy of discourse salience than some other (proximate) discourse-participant. "Obviative animate nouns, [in the Plains Cree dialect for instance], are marked by [a suffix] ending , and are used to refer to third persons who are more peripheral in the discourse than the proximate third person". For example: The suffix marks Susan as the obviative, or 'fourth' person, the person furthest away from the discourse. The Cree language has grammatical gender in a system that classifies nouns as animate or inanimate. The distribution of nouns between animate or inanimate is not phonologically transparent, which means gender must be learned along with the noun. As is common in polysynthetic languages, a Cree word can be very long, and express something that takes a series of words in English. For example, the Plains Cree word for 'school' is , 'know..place' or the 'knowing-it-together-by-example place'. This means that changing the word order in Cree can place emphasis on different pieces of the sentence. Wolfart and Carroll give the following example by transposing the two Cree words: → 'He asked the old man.' → 'It was the old man he asked.' Writing Cree dialects, except for those spoken in eastern Quebec and Labrador, are traditionally written using Cree syllabics, a variant of Canadian Aboriginal syllabics, but can be written with the Latin script as well. Both writing systems represent the language phonetically. Cree is always written from left to right horizontally. The easternmost dialects are written using the Latin script exclusively. The dialects of Plains Cree, Woods Cree, and western Swampy Cree use Western Cree syllabics and the dialects of eastern Swampy Cree, East Cree, Moose Cree, and Naskapi use Eastern Cree syllabics. Syllabics In Cree syllabics, each symbol, which represents a consonant, can be written four ways, each direction representing its corresponding vowel. Some dialects of Cree have up to seven vowels, so additional diacritics are placed after the syllabic to represent the corresponding vowels. Finals represent stand-alone consonants. The Cree language also has two semivowels. The semivowels may follow other consonants or be on their own in a word. The following tables show the syllabaries of Eastern and Western Cree dialects, respectively: Speakers of various Cree dialects have begun creating dictionaries to serve their communities. Some projects, such as the Cree Language Resource Project, are developing an online bilingual Cree dictionary for the Cree language. Cree syllabics has not commonly or traditionally used the period (). Instead, either a full-stop glyph () or a double em-width space has been used between words to signal the transition from one sentence to the next. Romanization For Plains Cree and Swampy Cree, Standard Roman Orthography (SRO) uses fourteen letters of the ISO basic Latin alphabet to denote the dialect's ten consonants (, , , , , , , , and ) and seven vowels (, , , , , and ). Upper case letters are not used. For more details on the phonetic values of these letters or variant orthographies, see the § Phonology section above. The sound of Woods Cree is written , or in more recent material. Plains and Swampy material written to be cross-dialectical often modify to and to when those are pronounced in Swampy. is used in Eastern dialects where s and š are distinct phonemes. In other dialects, s is used even when pronounced like . and are used natively in Moose and Attikamek Cree, but in other dialects only for loanwords. The stops, p, t, k, and the affricate, c, can be pronounced either voiced or unvoiced, but the symbols used for writing these sounds all correspond to the unvoiced pronunciation, e.g. not , not , etc. The phoneme is represented by , as it is in various other languages. Long vowels are denoted with either a macron, as in , or a circumflex, as in . Use of either the macron or circumflex is acceptable, but usage should be consistent within a work. The vowel ē , used in southern Plains Cree, is always long and the grapheme is never used. In northern Plains Cree the sound has merged with ī, and thus is not used at all. The use of unmarked and marked for the phonemes and emphasizes the relationship that can exist between these two vowels. There are situations where o can be lengthened to ō, as for example in 'sing (now)!' and 'sing (later)!'. In alphabetic writing, the use of punctuation has been inconsistent. For instance, in the Plains Cree dialect, the interrogative enclitic cî can be included in the sentence to mark a yes–no question such that this is sometimes considered to be sufficient without including a question mark (?). However, in many modern publications and text collections (cf. The Counselling Speeches of Jim Kâ-Nîpitêhtêw (1998)) full punctuation is used. Additionally, other interrogatives (where, when, what, why, who) can be used, as in other languages, and questions marks can thus be used for such questions in Cree as well. Hyphenation can be used to separate a particle from the root word that it prefixes, especially particles that precede verbs ("preverbs" or "indeclinable preverbs") or nouns ("prenouns" or "indeclinable prenouns"). One example is ('start speaking!'), derived from . Note that can neither stand alone as a separate word, nor is it an essential part of a stem. There are some more complex situations where it is difficult to determine whether an element is a particle. Some frequently used compound words can be written as unhyphenated. Stress can be predicted in some cases based on hyphenation. Vowel reduction or vowel dropping, as is common of unstressed short i , is not denoted in order to be more cross-dialectal—instead of using apostrophes, the full unreduced vowels are written. Representation of sandhi (such as → ) can be written or not written, as sandhi representation introduces greater complexity. There are additional rules regarding h and iy that may not match a given speaker's speech, to enable a standardized transcription. Contact languages Cree is also a component language in at least five contact languages, Michif, Northern Michif, Bungi, Oji-Cree, and Nehipwat. Michif and Bungi are spoken by members of the Métis, and historically by some Voyageurs and European settlers of Western Canada and parts of the Northern United States. Nehipwat and Oji-Cree are blends of Cree with Assiniboine (Nehipwat) and Ojibwe (Oji-Cree). Michif is a mixed language which combines Cree with French. For the most part, Michif uses Cree verbs, question words, and demonstratives while using French nouns. Michif is unique to the Canadian prairie provinces as well as to North Dakota and Montana in the United States. Michif is still spoken in central Canada and in North Dakota. Bungi is a creole based on Scottish English, Scots, Scottish Gaelic, Cree, and Ojibwe. Some French words have also been incorporated into its lexicon. This language flourished at and around the Red River Settlement (modern day location of Winnipeg, Manitoba) by the mid to late 1800s. Bungi is now virtually extinct, as its features are being abandoned in favor of standard English. Cree has also been incorporated into another mixed language within Canada, Nehipwat, which is a blending of Cree with Assiniboine. Nehipwat is found only in a few southern Saskatchewan reserves and is now nearing extinction. Nothing is known of its structure. Legal status The social and legal status of Cree varies across Canada. Cree is one of the eleven official languages of the Northwest Territories, but is only spoken by a small number of people there in the area around the town of Fort Smith. It is also one of two principal languages of the regional government of Eeyou Istchee James Bay in Northern Quebec, the other being French. Support and revitalization As of 2017, Cree had about 117,000 documented speakers. They are still a minority language given the dominance of English and French in Canada. There are programs in place to maintain and revitalize the language, though. In the Quebec James Bay Cree community, a resolution was put into action in 1988 that made Cree the language of education in primary schools and eventually elementary schools. The Mistissini council decided to require their employees to learn Cree syllabics in 1991. The Cree School Board now has its annual report available in both English and Cree. There is a push to increase the availability of Cree stations on the radio. In 2013, free Cree language electronic books for beginners became available for Alberta language teachers. The Government of the Northwest Territories releases an annual report on First Nations languages. The 2016–2017 report features successes they have had in revitalizing and supporting and projects they are working on. For example, they released a Medicinal Plant Guide that had information in both Cree and English. An important part of making the guide was input from the elders. Another accomplishment was the dubbing of a movie in Cree. They are working on broadcasting a radio station that "will give listeners music and a voice for our languages". Joshua Whitehead is one writer who has used the Cree language as part of his poetry. See also Cree people References Bibliography Ahenakew, Freda, Cree Language Structures: A Cree Approach.

Friederich Wilhelm Gustav Spörer (23 October 1822 – 7 July 1895) was a German astronomer. He is noted for his studies of sunspots and sunspot cycles. In this regard he is often mentioned together with Edward Maunder. Spörer was the first to note a prolonged period of low sunspot activity from 1645 to 1715. This period is known as the Maunder Minimum. Spörer was a contemporary of Richard Christopher Carrington, an English astronomer. Carrington is generally credited with discovering Spörer's law, which governs the variation of sunspot latitudes during the course of a solar cycle. Spörer added to Carrington's observations of sunspot drift and is sometimes credited with the discovery. The Spörer minimum was a period of low sunspot activity from roughly 1420 to 1570. Life From 1833 to 1840 Spörer attended Friedrich-Wilhelms-Gymnasium in Berlin and afterwards studied mathematics and natural history at Berliner Universität until 1843. He gained his doctorate on 14. December 1843 with a work on a comet of 1723 – his supervisor being Johann Franz Encke. From 1844 he worked at the New Berlin Observatory, whose first director was Encke. In 1885 he was awarded the Valz Prize from the French Academy of Sciences for his work on sunspots.

Roden () is a town in the Dutch province of Drenthe. It is located in the municipality of Noordenveld, about 16 km (10 miles) southwest of Groningen. History The village was first mentioned in 1139 as Rothen, and means "settlement near a clearing in the forest". Roden is an esdorp which developed in the Early Middle Ages. It has a large brink (village square) near the church and a double triangular brink around what is nowadays called Julianaplein. The Dutch Reformed church has three aisles and dates from the 13th century. The tower has a constricted needle spire which dates from the 15th or 16th century. The church was extended in the 15th century. The church was restored several times during the Dutch Revolt due to war damage. Huis Mensinge or Huis te Roden is a havezate (manor house) which was built in the 15th century as a replacement of an estate from 1381. It was plundered by Groningen in 1498. The building received its current shape in 1728. In 1985, it was sold to the municipality and now contains a museum. Roden was home to 1,889 people in 1840. In the 1950s, it started to develop as an industrial centre. The Kapteyn Astronomical Institute was established in the town as the astronomy department of the University of Groningen, and it started to develop as a commuter town for Groningen. Many of the nearby hamlets have been annexed. An Ot en Sien statue, the main characters from a famous Dutch children's book, has been placed on the village square. Roden was a separate municipality until 1998, when it merged into the municipality of Noordenveld as a part of municipal reorganisations, however it is still the capital of the municipality.

Moseley Square is a public square in the City of Holdfast Bay at Glenelg, and was named for Henry J. Moseley, the builder and first publican of the Pier Hotel, Glenelg. Located between Jetty Road and Glenelg Beach, the Square is the location of the Glenelg Town Hall, Glenelg Jetty, the Stamford Grand Hotel and various fast-food outlets. It is the terminus of the Glenelg tram line (for many years the only tram line in Adelaide) from Adelaide. It is a site of major events including the Glenelg Jazz Festival and the City to Bay Fun Run. Centenary monument On 28 December 1936 an obelisk erected to commemorate the landing of British pioneer settlers 100 years earlier was unveiled at Moseley Square. The memorial was designed by architect Gordon Beaumont Smith and shaped by Adelaide monumental mason A. S. Tillett from South Australian marble on a base of Victor Harbor granite. It was topped by a bronze model of HMS Buffalo modelled by H. Dalton Hall. In the frieze at the top of its four faces were carved roundels containing bas-relief portraits of Governor Hindmarsh, Robert Gouger, Edward Gibbon Wakefield, and George Fife Angas. On the east and west faces were carved representations of the foundation and proclamation of the colony, from sketches by Ivor Hele and modelled in plaster by J. H. Choate of the School of Arts. Bronze tablets on the northern and southern sides carry tributes to Wakefield, Gouger, Torrens, Angas, Nuyts, Flinders, Baudin, Sturt, Barker, and Light, and "the first settlers, men and women, who by faith and courage endured the hardships of pioneer settlement to lay the foundations of South Australia. Si monumentum requiris circumspice." — For [their] monument, look around. — (as per Christopher Wren's epitaph in St Paul's Cathedral, London). 1995 International Tattoo Moseley Square was the venue for what was styled "Sensational Adelaide International Tattoo" between 23 November and 3 December 1995, starting at sunset. The event had the Centenary monument as a backdrop and the audience of around 3,000 was seated grandstand-fashion on three sides. Inspired by the Edinburgh Tattoo, it featured bands from the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards, Brigade of Gurkhas, Royal Australian Navy and South Australian Police Force, plus demonstrations from a quartet of flag wavers from Umbria and a composition "Celtic Dreaming" for didgeridoo, bodhrán and bagpipe. A VHS recording of highlights from the concerts was produced and marketed by the ABC. The Square has undergone some refurbishment during the 2000s. References Squares in Adelaide

Torsten Carleman (8 July 1892, Visseltofta, Osby Municipality – 11 January 1949, Stockholm), born Tage Gillis Torsten Carleman, was a Swedish mathematician, known for his results in classical analysis and its applications. As the director of the Mittag-Leffler Institute for more than two decades, Carleman was the most influential mathematician in Sweden. Work The dissertation of Carleman under Erik Albert Holmgren, as well as his work in the early 1920s, was devoted to singular integral equations. He developed the spectral theory of integral operators with Carleman kernels, that is, kernels K(x, y) such that K(y, x) = K(x, y) for almost every (x, y), and for almost every x. In the mid-1920s, Carleman developed the theory of quasi-analytic functions. He proved the necessary and sufficient condition for quasi-analyticity, now called the Denjoy–Carleman theorem. As a corollary, he obtained a sufficient condition for the determinacy of the moment problem. As one of the steps in the proof of the Denjoy–Carleman theorem in , he introduced the Carleman inequality valid for any sequence of non-negative real numbers ak. At about the same time, he established the Carleman formulae in complex analysis, which reconstruct an analytic function in a domain from its values on a subset of the boundary. He also proved a generalisation of Jensen's formula, now called the Jensen–Carleman formula. In the 1930s, independently of John von Neumann, he discovered the mean ergodic theorem. Later, he worked in the theory of partial differential equations, where he introduced the Carleman estimates, and found a way to study the spectral asymptotics of Schrödinger operators. In 1932, following the work of Henri Poincaré, Erik Ivar Fredholm, and Bernard Koopman, he devised the Carleman embedding (also called Carleman linearization), a way to embed a finite-dimensional system of nonlinear differential equations  = P(u) for u: Rk → R, where the components of P are polynomials in u, into an infinite-dimensional system of linear differential equations. In 1933 Carleman published a short proof of what is now called the Denjoy–Carleman–Ahlfors theorem. This theorem states that the number of asymptotic values attained by an entire function of order ρ along curves in the complex plane going outwards toward infinite absolute value is less than or equal to 2ρ. In 1935, Torsten Carleman introduced a generalisation of Fourier transform, which foreshadowed the work of Mikio Sato on hyperfunctions; his notes were published in . He considered the functions f of at most polynomial growth, and showed that every such function can be decomposed as f = f+ + f−, where f+ and f− are analytic in the upper and lower half planes, respectively, and that this representation is essentially unique. Then he defined the Fourier transform of (f+, f−) as another such pair (g+, g−). Though conceptually different, the definition coincides with the one given later by Laurent Schwartz for tempered distributions. Carleman's definition gave rise to numerous extensions. Returning to mathematical physics in the 1930s, Carleman gave the first proof of global existence for Boltzmann's equation in the kinetic theory of gases (his result applies to the space-homogeneous case). The results were published posthumously in . Carleman supervised the Ph.D. theses of Ulf Hellsten, Karl Persson (Dagerholm), Åke Pleijel and (jointly with Fritz Carlson) of Hans Rådström. Life Carleman was born in Visseltofta to Alma Linnéa Jungbeck and Karl Johan Carleman, a school teacher. He studied at Växjö Cathedral School, graduating in 1910. He continued his studies at Uppsala University, being one of the active members of the Uppsala Mathematical Society. Kjellberg recalls: He was a genius! My older friends in Uppsala used to tell me about the wonderful years they had had when Carleman was there. He was the most active speaker in the Uppsala Mathematical Society and a well-trained gymnast. When people left the seminar crossing the Fyris River, he walked on his hands on the railing of the bridge. From 1917 he was docent at Uppsala University, and from 1923 — a full professor at Lund University. In 1924 he was appointed professor at Stockholm University. He was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1926. From 1927, he was director of the Mittag-Leffler Institute and editor of Acta Mathematica. From 1929 to 1946 Carleman was married to Anna-Lisa Lemming (1885–1954), the half-sister of the athlete Eric Lemming who won four golden medals and three bronze at the Olympic Games. During this period he was also known as a recognized fascist, anti-semite and xenophobe. His interaction with William Feller before the former departure to the United States was not particularly pleasant, at some point being reported due to his opinion that "Jews and foreigners should be executed". Carlson remembers Carleman as: "secluded and taciturn, who looked at life and people with a bitter humour. In his heart, he was inclined to kindliness towards those around him, and strove to assist them swiftly." Towards the end of his life, he remarked to his students that "professors ought to be shot at the age of fifty." During the last decades of his life, Carleman abused alcohol, according to Norbert Wiener and William Feller. His final years were plagued by neuralgia. At the end of 1948, he developed the liver disease jaundice; he died from complications of the disease.

Hala Gezah (born September 17, 1989 in Tripoli) is a Libyan sprinter. She competed in the 100 metres competition at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. She was the only female athlete to compete for Libya at the 2012 Summer Olympics. Early life When she was a child, her father, a football player, encouraged her to be an athlete. She practices the Islamic faith. Gezah's athletic training was interrupted after the dictator of Libya, Muammar Gaddafi, was overthrown. The political change interrupted communication with a local athletic federation and left the Libyan Olympic Committee without funds. Aside from training as a runner, Gezah also studied science. Career Gezah only participated in one competition in 2012 prior to the Olympic games. Her result at the biennial African athletics championships in Benin was not enough to qualify for the Olympic games. Gezah was the only Libyan woman to compete at the 2012 Summer Olympics. Because the International Olympic Committee encourages participation from many countries, Libya was able to send one athlete in athletics and chose Gezah. She was one of only four Libyan athletes to compete in the 2012 Summer Olympics and the only female Libyan athlete to compete. On August 3, 2012, she ran the preliminaries for the women's 100 metres in 13.24 seconds, placing 23 out of 33 wildcard participants, which did not qualify her for Round 1. Her personal best recorded times in competition are 13.15 seconds in the 100 metres and 27.32 seconds in the 200 metres. Both results were recorded at Porto Novo on 27 June 2012 and 30 June 2012.

Fyning Hill is a large estate near the village of Rogate in West Sussex. It has been owned by several prominent people including Kerry Packer and Roman Abramovich. History The main house contains 8 bedrooms with 5 reception rooms. It was owned by Sir Albert Braithwaite until his death in 1959. The estate was owned in the 1970s and 1980s by the Jordanian businessman Taj Hajjar, who was a friend of King Hussein of Jordan. The biggest ever robbery in Sussex occurred on the property in May 1983 when £800,000 of jewellery was stolen. Hajjar put up an £80,000 reward, but no thief was ever apprehended. Hajjar sold the estate to the Australian publisher and broadcaster Kerry Packer for $5 million in May 1989. Packer built the headquarters for his polo team at Fyning Hill, and would arrive at the estate in May for the three-month English polo season. Packer subsequently bought the nearby Great House Farm for £580,000 in June 1989, and had acquired 600 acres of nearby countryside by June 1990. Packer's daughter, Gretel, was married on the estate in 1991. The estate totalled 424 acres with five houses and nine cottages by September 1999 when Packer put the estate up for sale. The estate was bought by the Russian businessman Roman Abramovich in 1999 for £12 million. Fyning Hill was included as part of the divorce settlement between Abramovich and his second wife, Irina Malandina, in 2007. The estate was valued at £18 million at the time. The size of the estate was listed as 420 acres in 2017. References Houses in West Sussex Chichester District

The exact sciences or quantitative sciences, sometimes called the exact mathematical sciences, are those sciences "which admit of absolute precision in their results"; especially the mathematical sciences. Examples of the exact sciences are mathematics, optics, astronomy, and physics, which many philosophers from Descartes, Leibniz, and Kant to the logical positivists took as paradigms of rational and objective knowledge. These sciences have been practiced in many cultures from antiquity to modern times. Given their ties to mathematics, the exact sciences are characterized by accurate quantitative expression, precise predictions and/or rigorous methods of testing hypotheses involving quantifiable predictions and measurements. The distinction between the quantitative exact sciences and those sciences that deal with the causes of things is due to Aristotle, who distinguished mathematics from natural philosophy and considered the exact sciences to be the "more natural of the branches of mathematics." Thomas Aquinas employed this distinction when he said that astronomy explains the spherical shape of the Earth by mathematical reasoning while physics explains it by material causes. This distinction was widely, but not universally, accepted until the scientific revolution of the 17th century. Edward Grant has proposed that a fundamental change leading to the new sciences was the unification of the exact sciences and physics by Kepler, Newton, and others, which resulted in a quantitative investigation of the physical causes of natural phenomena. Linguistics and comparative philology have also been considered exact sciences, most notably by Benjamin Whorf.

South African Defence Force was a first-class cricket team in South Africa. They played six first-class friendly matches, one match per season, between October 1984 and October 1989. At the time the strength of the South African Defence Force was boosted by conscription for all young white men, and as a consequence the South African Defence Force team were able to call on many young first-class cricketers, some of whom went on to play at Test level in the 1990s. Matches South African Defence Force began with a high-scoring draw against Eastern Province in 1984-85, then lost narrowly to Boland in 1985-86, easily beat Griqualand West in 1986-87, lost narrowly to Natal in 1987-88, drew against Boland in 1988-89, and finally drew against Orange Free State in 1989-90. The 1988-89 match against Boland was played at the Defence Force Ground, Windhoek. It was the first first-class match ever played in Namibia. Leading players Five South African Defence Force players scored centuries. The highest was 172 by Mark Logan, the side's first captain, against Eastern Province. The best bowling figures were 4 for 80 and 7 for 63 by Allan Donald in the victory over Griqualand West. The South African Defence Force players who later played Test cricket were Donald, Dave Callaghan, John Commins, Clive Eksteen, Steve Elworthy, Brian McMillan, Dave Richardson and Mark Rushmere.

The South African cricket team toured England in the 1951 season to play a five-match Test series against England. England won the series 3-1 with 1 match drawn. South African team The South African team was captained by Dudley Nourse, with Eric Rowan as vice-captain. The manager was Sid Pegler who had toured England as a player with the South African cricket team of 1912 and 1924. The full team was: Dudley Nourse, captain Eric Rowan, vice-captain Jack Cheetham Geoff Chubb Russell Endean, wicketkeeper George Fullerton Tufty Mann Percy Mansell Cuan McCarthy Jackie McGlew Roy McLean Michael Melle Athol Rowan Hugh Tayfield Clive van Ryneveld John Waite, wicketkeeper Tayfield was not originally chosen, but joined the party in May when it was feared that Athol Rowan's health might not be up to a full tour. Fullerton had kept wicket on the 1947 tour, but did not keep wicket at all in this tour, being played as a batsman. Endean was used as the second wicketkeeper on this tour, including one Test, but then did not keep wicket when he toured England for a second time with the 1955 team. Nourse, Fullerton, Mann and Athol Rowan had toured England with the 1947 team; Nourse and Eric Rowan had toured with the 1935 side. Cheetham, Endean, Mansell, McGlew, McLean, Tayfield and Waite returned to England with the 1955 side, and McGlew, McLean, Tayfield and Waite came back for a third time with the 1960 team. Before this 1951 tour, Chubb, Endean, Mansell, McGlew, McLean, van Ryneveld and Waite had not previously played Test cricket. Chubb, McGlew, van Ryneveld and Waite made their Test debuts in the first Test of this tour, and the other three had all appeared in Test cricket by the end of the series. The only player on the tour who did not appear in any of the Tests was Tayfield, who had previously played Test cricket for South Africa in 1949-50.

Does Anybody Miss Me is a 1969 album by Shirley Bassey. In 1969 Bassey moved her home to Lugano, Switzerland, with her second husband Sergio Novak, whom she had married in Las Vegas in August 1968. Remaining as a tax exile prevented her from performing and recording in the UK. In this period she continued to perform and record in Italy and the US. This album was recorded in the US and produced by the American producer Dave Pell, with arrangements by Artie Butler. The tracks on this album are a selection of standards and show tunes. The title track Does Anybody Miss Me was issued as a single in the UK, backed with the non album track Fa Fa Fa, but this failed to make any impression on the chart. Does Anybody Miss Me has remained part of her live show and was recorded as the opening track of the album Live At Talk Of The Town in 1970. This album saw Bassey re-record her 1958 UK #1 hit single As I Love You which she had previously released on the Philips label. Also issued in the US as Does Anybody Miss Me there the album did not include the re-recording of As I Love You and Think Of Me. The original album was issued in mono and stereo. The stereo version of this album has been released on CD twice, firstly, in the late 1990s, on the EMI 2-CD set Shirley Bassey The Collection and a digitally re-mastered release for CD in 2009 together with This Is My Life by BGO Records.

Salix monticola is a species of flowering plant in the willow family known by the common names mountain willow, cherry willow, serviceberry willow, and park willow. It is native to the United States, where it occurs in the Rocky Mountains region from Wyoming to Arizona and New Mexico. It also occurs in Alaska and parts of Canada. This willow is quite variable in appearance, depending on environmental conditions. It grows to in dense clumps. The branches are yellowish or reddish-brown, mottled with green. The leaves are lance-shaped to oval and are up to long. They have smooth, wavy, or toothed edges. The species is dioecious, with male and female reproductive parts occurring on separate plants. The flowers are often pollinated by bees. The seeds are viable for a short time, but germinate immediately on landing on an appropriate moist substrate. This plant is common on the riverbanks of Arctic Alaska and Yukon. It forms thickets on floodplains where recent deposits of soil have been washed down by floodwaters. In western Colorado, it may be a dominant or codominant species in riparian zones. It often forms thickets along waterways. This plant is an important food source for many types of animals, such as moose and ptarmigan. Honey bees use the pollen and nectar. References External links The Nature Conservancy monticola

The Special Committee on Corrections (better known as the Ouimet Committee) was a committee appointed by the Canadian Minister of Justice Guy Favreau in 1964 “to study the broad field of corrections, in its widest sense and to recommend … what changes, if any, should be made in the law and practice relating to these matters.” The Committee was named after its chairman, Quebec Superior Court Justice Roger Ouimet. The committee's final report, published in 1969, recommended, in general, a rehabilitative rather than punitive approach to corrections. Among many other findings, it called for the complete abolition of corporal punishment in Canada, and an overhaul of the system for dealing with high-risk offenders. Formation The committee was announced in the House of Commons by Favreau on April 9, 1965, though it had been previously referred to in the Speech from the Throne earlier that month. Its terms of reference, announced in the House on April 9, were: To study the broad field of corrections, in its widest sense, from the initial investigation of an offence through to the final discharge of a prisoner from imprisonment or parole, including such steps and measures as arrest, summonsing, bail, representation in Court, conviction, probation, sentencing, training, medical and psychiatric attention, release, parole, pardon, post release supervision and guidance and rehabilitation; to recommend as conclusions are reached, what changes, if any, should be made in the law and practice relating to these matters in order better to assure the protection of the individual and, where possible, his rehabilitation, having in mind always adequate protection for the community; and to consider and recommend upon any matters necessarily ancillary to the foregoing and such related matters as may later be referred to the Committee; but excluding consideration of specific offences except where such consideration bears directly upon any of the above mentioned matters. —Justice Minister Guy Favreau, Parliament of Canada Members The committee had five members: Claude Bouchard, associate secretary of the Canadian Corrections Association under McGrath, was appointed assistant secretary of the Ouimet Committee, though not a member. Furthermore, several members of the Canadian Corrections Association were credited in the report as consultants and advisors in the final report. Findings The 505-page final report of the committee was submitted on March 31, 1969, but not made public until Sept. 25, 1969 It was titled Toward Unity: Criminal Justice and Corrections. The title refers to its main, general finding, which was a need for “more effective cooperation among law enforcement agencies, the judiciary and the corrections services,” as well as to the fact that it was more broad-ranging than previous criminal-justice committees. The overarching theme of the committee's findings, as laid out in eight “main principles” laid out in Chapter 2, is a call for a move toward rehabilitation and away from punishment in Canada's criminal-justice system. A punitive approach does less to address the protection of all members of society, which is “the only justifiable purpose of the criminal process in contemporary Canada.” The report continued on the work began by the Archambault Commission 30 years earlier. McArton contributed a “Separate Statement” at the end of the report which functioned much like a judicial dissenting opinion. Though she stated that she agreed with all of the report's conclusions, she felt two issues needed further attention: federal/provincial division of responsibility, and the potential for actors outside the criminal-justice system to combat anti-social behaviour. Her 16-page statement expands upon those issues. Reception The recommendations were received favourably in the popular press at the time. Two days after it was made public, an editorial in the national newspaper The Globe and Mail called the final report “an impressive effort to find more just means of dealing with law-breakers”. A week later, The Toronto Star criticized the head of the Canadian police chiefs’ association for publicly opposing its recommendations. Many of the report recommendations were eventually adopted by the federal government, or at least shaped future criminal-justice policy. Correction Service Canada cites the committee's complete condemnation of corporal punishment as a driving force in the practice being abolished in Canada in 1972, three years after the report was released. The federal government also accepted the committee's call to replace the “habitual offender” and “dangerous sexual offender” designations with a single “dangerous offender” designation. The committee stated in its report that the previous designations included criminals who represented “nuisances” to society without necessarily qualifying as dangerous, and at the same time did not include offenders who did represent a danger to society without having displayed “habitual” behaviour. In response to these findings, Parliament amended this section of the Criminal Code in 1977. References Government of Quebec

Endogemma is a monotypic genus of liverworts belonging to the family Endogemmataceae and subclass of Jungermanniineae. The genera Endogemma and fellow Jungermanniineae subclass genus Solenostoma was also accepted by Borovichev 2014, and Konstantinova & Lapshina 2014. The only known species is Endogemma caespiticia . The family Endogemmataceae, the genus Endogemma and the lone species Endogemma caespiticia were all published by Konstant., Vilnet et A.V.Troitsky in Folia Cryptog. Estonica 48: 132 in 2011. It has the beaked perianth mouth of Solenostoma and a lack of perigynium and shoot calyptra as in Jungermannia species. It differs from similar Solenostomataceae and Jungermanniaceae species in having endogenous gemmae and in a characteristic large, single oil-body otherwise only known for Solenostoma tetragonum . The name Endogemma is derived from endogenous (originate from within a living system) and gemmae (single cell, or a mass of cells in asexual reproduction). This is a very rare feature in hepatic plants. The species epithet of caespiticia is derived from caespiticius meaning made of turf. It is commonly known as the delicate flapwort, or carpet-like flapwort. Description Endogemma caespiticia has obliquely, or sub-transversely (at angles of 30–70°) inserted leaves, that un-lobed and rounded. They are wide and long but very rarely up to 5 mm long. It has a creeping to ascending form, with endogenous gemmae concentrated in unfertilized perianths (flower parts). The plants are pale brownish, whitish to yellowish, without red or purple pigmentation (as exception that pigmentation present in perianth plicae (fold). The stem is 200–300 μm (micrometre) wide with lateral branching, mainly below gemmae tips or perianths. The dorsal surface cells are thin-walled, with indistinct trigones which are 70–240 by 28–50 μm in size. Rhizoids (protuberances that extend from the lower epidermal cells) are dense to scattered and colour-less to brownish in shade. They are in indistinct obliquely spreading fascicles commonly closely attaching plant to the substratum or soils. The cells in the midleaf, are thin-walled, from (rarely) 28 × 28 μm up to 47–90 × 42–65 μm in size. The cells near the margins (of the leaf) are 40–70 (–100) μm in size. They are thin-walled, but sometimes with a thickened external wall. The trigones (one of the thickenings of the cell wall at the angles where several cells join) are concave, with a cuticle smooth throughout. There are oil bodies in almost all of the leaf cells, 1 or 2 per cell. They are grayish to brownish (in shade) and are coarsely granulate and nearly filling the cell lumen. The gemmae are ovoid or ellipsoidal shaped, orbicular to shortly elliptic (in shape), and irregularly tetragonal (7 sided) in projection. They are about 8.4–14.0 × 7.0–10 μm in size. They are 2 celled at leaf tips or margins. They are found within unfertilized perianth. The sexual condition is dioicous. The perianth is present, without perigynium (sac) or shoot calyptra (lid). Distribution They are a boreal sub-circumpolar species. It is native to Eurasia and Northern America. It is widespread in northern Europe. It has been recorded in all administrative sub-units of the Russian Far East (although it is very rare in altitudes northward of 60°N). In adjacent Siberia, it is distributed disjunctively and also known from Western and Southern Siberia and the Republic of Yakutiya. On the North American side, it seems to be quite rare and is recorded only in British Columbia and Alaska and also eastward also known from rather isolated locality near New York. Habitat It is an Acido- to neutrophilic mesophyte. It has a preference to grow in man-made mesic habitats, such as near roadsides and waste lands. The taxon also prefers habitats with anthropogenic disturbed vegetation. Such as on claylike soil along roadsides and on stream banks in coniferous forest belt, rarely ascending to alpine forests and mountain tundra or occurring within the tundra zone. In the Russian Far East, it occurs mostly below 500 m a.s.l., with rare exceptions confined to anthropogenically modified habitats such as in Iturup Island (1020 m a.s.l.), where it occurs along old roadside and also Central Kamchatka, where it grows along stream banks and near roads. Including being found in France (within a disused China-clay mine). References Jungermanniales Jungermanniales genera Monotypic bryophyte genera Taxa described in 2011
Allie Brosh (born May 18, 1985) is an American blogger, writer and comic artist best known for her blog in the form of a webcomic Hyperbole and a Half. Brosh grew up in small towns across the U.S. before attending the University of Montana. While there, Brosh started Hyperbole and a Half in 2009, on which she told stories from her life in a mix of text and intentionally crude illustrations. She has published two books telling stories in the same style, both of which have been New York Times bestsellers. Brosh lives with severe depression and ADHD, and her comics on depression have won praise from fans and mental health professionals. Her depression led her to withdraw from the internet and her blog for several years. Early life Brosh was raised in small towns—first in Auburn, California, then near Sandpoint, Idaho—which she says let her "be a little bit weirder". Brosh wanted to be an author from age eight, and described writing a book at age nine or ten, saying, "It was this epic monstrosity that filled three whole notebooks... the main plot was that there was a guy, and he fought lots of things. Anything I could think of – this guy fought it." She graduated in human biology from the University of Montana, where she also participated in track. Brosh has ADHD, which she says was more severe when she was a child. Hyperbole and a Half blog Brosh started Hyperbole and a Half in 2009 to avoid studying for her college physics final exam. She used Paintbrush software to draw the comic. When the blog was fully active, Brosh would upload a new entry every few weeks. In 2010, she said of her career as a writer, “With my crippling ADHD and impulsive decisions this is a perfect job for me. I make my own schedule." Hyperbole and a Half has been described both as a blog and as a webcomic. Each post is a mix of text and illustrations describing her life, including childhood stories, or general thoughts, such as her grammatical pet peeve of "a lot" being written as "alot". Brosh compared her combination of text and illustrations to stand-up comedy, saying, "[my writing] was more one-dimensional than stand-up comedy, in which you can rely on tone and facial expressions, body posture. And I wanted to find some way to commit that to the page. Drawing fixed all of those problems." The drawings, mainly stick figures which draw inspiration from rage comics, intentionally appear crude. Brosh scrutinized and refined her drawings, often doing 10 or more of each illustration, spending hours on facial expressions or body positions. Brosh said that each blog entry took around 24 hours to produce. The character representing Brosh loosely resembles a stick-figure with a pink dress, with wide-grinning, unfocused eyes and a triangle-shaped ponytail sticking up which she jokingly calls a shark fin. The character sometimes wears a grey hoodie when particularly depressed. Brosh said in an interview, "I feel very awkward a lot, and so I want to represent myself with this awkward thing, this thing that doesn't quite look like a person. Maybe it looks like some sort of bug or some sort of alien, because that's how I feel." Reception Brosh first saw her work become popular when one of her posts was linked from Reddit and she found her blog getting "like 100 times more traffic than I’d ever had." By 2013, she had over 380,000 Facebook likes and around 72 million website views and was getting five million unique visitors each month. In 2011 her blog was included in a list of the funniest sites by PC World, and in 2013 Advertising Age put Brosh in its yearly list of "most influential and creative thinkers and doers". A panel from one entry, captioned "clean all the things", became an internet meme. Depression and withdrawal In October 2011, Brosh made a blog post entitled "Adventures in Depression" in which she revealed that she had severe depression. After that post, Brosh's blog was inactive for more than a year. In May 2013, she made a long follow-up post chronicling her struggle with depression and thoughts of suicide. Her site got 1.5 million visits in a day, and the number of supportive comments from people indicating that they were worried about her surprised her. The two comics on depression became popular with people who could identify with her depiction of the mental disorder, and people who had never experienced depression said they understood it better. Her work was praised by critics and psychologists who appreciated her depiction of the illness. Jonathan Rottenberg, Associate Professor of Psychology at the University of South Florida, in Psychology Today, said, "I know of no better depiction of the guts of what it’s like to be severely depressed." Brosh said seeing how people related to her work helped her: "Depression can be such an isolating experience, and it's deceptive, you know, you think, 'Surely I'm the only one that's ever gone through this, or felt this depth of misery.'" First book According to The Globe and Mail, the success of the 2011 post "rocketed Brosh to serious virality, landing her a book deal." Brosh's first book, titled Hyperbole and a Half: Unfortunate Situations, Flawed Coping Mechanisms, Mayhem, and Other Things That Happened, was released in October 2013. It is written in the same style as her blog and includes some posts from the blog along with new stories. It was published by Touchstone, an imprint of CBS’s Simon & Schuster. The book's release was delayed as Brosh underwent major surgery for stage IV endometriosis. Brosh went on a six-city tour for the release, arranged by the publisher. She made appearances on radio and television and got support from fellow authors, including Elizabeth Gilbert. Before the book's publication, Brosh revealed its cover on Facebook and Twitter and participated in a marathon "ask-me-anything" session on Reddit. Hyperbole and a Half sold more than 350,000 copies in one month. It was on The New York Times Best Seller list (Advice, How-To & Miscellaneous) for 12 weeks and on the NPR Paperback Nonfiction Bestseller List for 31 weeks. The book was the American Booksellers Association’s No. 1 pick for November, and it won a Goodreads Choice Award in the Humor category. Subsequent withdrawal and second book After the first book's release, Brosh's online presence became sporadic again, and after a tweet in November 2014 disappeared again from social media. Brosh made a few public appearances; she appeared on WTF with Marc Maron in November 2014, on an episode of YouTube series Tabletop and on a Comic-Con panel in June 2015, and she gave a talk in 2016 on the JoCo Cruise. In August 2015 she announced that she was working on a new book called Solutions and Other Problems. The release date was postponed a number of times, and by 2018 it was marked "unavailable" on Amazon. In June 2020, the book reappeared on Simon & Schuster's website with a new cover and updated page count and description. In September 2020, Brosh publicly announced the book with a new post on her blog. Solutions and Other Problems was released on September 22, 2020. It became a New York Times Bestseller (Advice, How-To & Miscellaneous), and it had been on the list for four weeks. Ailsa Chang of NPR said that what was most striking about the work is that Brosh ricochets between zany moments and sad moments within pages, and a key theme of the book is showing compassion to yourself. Personal life , Brosh lived in Bend, Oregon, with her husband, Duncan. She had married Duncan in December 2012, having been together for around eight years before that. In a post on Reddit in June 2020, Brosh said that since then she had divorced, then remarried, and that after moving around multiple states was living in Bend again. Brosh's younger sister Kaitlin, who had bipolar disorder, died in 2013. Brosh referred to her sister's death as a suicide. Brosh underwent major surgery for stage IV endometriosis in 2013. Brosh has said that she "lives like a recluse". Brosh has been active on Reddit and has said that she likes it because it was the place where her first posts got popular. When asked if she feels an obligation to update readers on her health, she said, "I have been trying to make myself be more responsible. There’s a part of me that wishes that I could sort of disappear and fade back into the mists when I need to. But I know that’s not how reality works. I’m trying not to disappear for quite so long, or as completely".

Fudbalski klub Sarajevo () is a professional football club based in Sarajevo, the capital city of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and is one of the most successful in the country. This is a season-by-season record of the club's league performances: SFR Yugoslavia (1946–1992) Bosnia and Herzegovina (1994–present) Notes 1 Goals in all competitions are counted. 2 From 1947–48 to 1951 the Yugoslav Second League was known as the United League (Jedinstvena liga). 3 The 1952 season was shortened and sped-up. The reason for the change was a desire to implement the fall-spring competition format. The competition took place in two phases. In the first clubs were divided into two preliminary groups of 6 teams. Based on their ranking at the end of preliminary groups they were promoted to three further groups: Title, Central and Relegation. Each of them containing 4 teams. 4 Cup competition was not held for 1955–56 and 1974–75 seasons. 5 First title in domestic league competitions. 6 Between 1988–89 and 1991–92, drawn games went to penalties with the winners of the shoot out gaining the point. Figures in brackets represent points won in such shoot outs. 7 Midway through the 1991–92 season the club, along with other Bosnian and Macedonian sides, abandoned the competition as Bosnia and Herzegovina gained independence from Yugoslavia (Slovenian and Croatian sides had succeeded a few months prior). The resulting war would halt competitive football in the country for four years. 8 The first season of the First League of Bosnia and Herzegovina was played in 1994–95. Four regional groups were organized, with the winners and runners-up from each group competing in a Play-off format for the title. 9 The 1997–98 season broke the ethnic barrier for the first time since the war, with a Play-off between winners of the all-Bosniak First League of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Croat First League organized for the national title. This format was kept until the 1999–2000 season when a joint league was formed, with the Play-off system being scrapped. 10 The 2000–01 competition was renamed the Premier League of Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was only contested by Bosniak and Croatian clubs. 11 The 2001–02 season was the debut year for Serbian clubs from the Republika Srpska. They had previously competed in the First League of the Republika Srpska. 12 The 2016–17 season was the first to be organized with 12 team and a two-stage format - Regular season league and Championship/Relegation league rounds. The top six teams in the regular season qualify for the Championship league round, while the bottom six compete between themselves in an effort to avoid relegation. 13 In the 2018–19 season the league returned the one-stage format, by which every team played a total of 33 games. After all teams play each other two times, once at home and once away, the third game is played on a ground which is determined using the Berger system. 14 The 2019–20 season was suspended in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The season was curtailed and the final standings (including Sarajevo as champions) were declared by a points-per-game ratio on 1 June 2020.

Bohemian National Hall () is an historic building located in the Broadway–Slavic Village neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in May 1975. The hall was built to serve the cultural and educational needs of the city's Czech community, and currently serves as host to Sokol Greater Cleveland and the Cleveland Czech Cultural Center and Museum. History Bohemian National Hall was built in 1896-97 by Czech immigrants in Cleveland, reportedly becoming the "first hall in the city owned by a nationality group." The idea of the hall emerged in the 1880s in the Lodge Bratri v Kruhu of the Czech Slovak Benevolent Association. The fundraising effort was led by Czech American journalist Václav Šnajdr, and the building was designed by Andrew Mitermiler, John Hradek, and the Cleveland architectural firm of Steffens, Searles and Hirsh. On October 22 and 23, 1915, Bohemian National Hall was the site of the signing of the Cleveland Agreement by Czech American and Slovak American representatives. The agreement was a precursor to the Pittsburgh Agreement, calling for the formation of a joint Czech and Slovak state, which was realized with the founding of Czechoslovakia in 1918. Over the years, the building's exterior darkened appreciably due to the pollution from nearby steel mills. Sokol, a local Czech American society which promotes athletics and healthy living, purchased the building for $35,000 ($ in dollars) in 1975. Bohemian National Hall underwent a $400,000 ($ in dollars) renovation in 1997. The basement was deepened by to raise the ceiling to a more customary height. In the first floor lobby, paint was stripped from the quarter-sawn oak molding and panelling and a false wall removed to reveal a wrought iron screen. The walls of the grand ballroom on the second floor were cleaned of more than a century of grime, and two ornate hand-carved columns were rescued and placed in the third-floor museum. An elevator was also added to the structure, to make the fourth floor gymnasium more accessible. In 1998, Sokol began construction on a $1.5 million ($ in dollars), addition to the Bohemian National Hall. Built by Panzica Construction, the volleyball court (which shared the ballroom) and the gymnastics practice area (on the fourth floor) moved to the addition once it was finished.

It is a continuation of the video for "Saturday", and draws much of its plot from the lore established in Twenty One Pilots' preceding album, Trench (2018). The video begins with a scene of a water dragon, which fades into a room housing the nine bishops in the fictional city of Dema who proceed to kill one of their own. The scene then cuts to Joseph washing up on the shore of an island, which goes by the name of "Voldsøy", located on the conceptual continent known as "Trench". Dun finds Joseph and the two set off for a cave where antlered creatures reside; this creature has notably previously appeared in the video for "Chlorine". Joseph sits down with the creatures and drinks an unknown substance they gave him, and follows one out of the cave. The creatures give him their antlers and disappear. Joseph then places the antlers above his head, which allows him to revive and control the dead bishop in Dema. He breaks one of the neon gravestones in the bishops' room, then releases the bishop from control by immolating him through a fire caused by the damaged neon light. The video cuts to a shot of Joseph and Dun standing side by side in the night, looking off into the distance as they spot the torches of the "Banditos", a rebellion against the city of Dema, and the rebels look back at them. The video then focuses on a certain duo of the Banditos, and as they look back at the now-flaming Dema, it is revealed that they are the same duo who found the other Banditos' jumpsuits at the end of the video for "Nico and the Niners". Live performances On December 16, 2021, the Twenty One Pilots YouTube channel released a video of the band performing the song at the Corona Capital Festival in Mexico City, Mexico.

The Housemaid Debate or Maid Debate () is a political discussion in Sweden, which began on 18 July 1993 when Swedish economist Anne-Marie Pålsson proposed tax deductions for household services. Many right-wing politicians supported the proposal, meaning it would reduce unreported employment. Many left-wing politicians instead expressed negative thoughts, meaning it would increase social class gaps using parallels to the time before the 1970s when many girls were employed to live-in and work for wealthier families. The discussion has later reappeared, especially during elections in Sweden. Tax deductions, so called RUT deductions for household services, were introduced in Sweden on 1 July 2007, during the centre-right Reinfeldt cabinet.

Trifurcula eurema is a moth of the family Nepticulidae. It is widespread throughout Europe, northwards to southern Norway and Sweden (but not in Finland), Poland and the Baltic Region. It is also found in the Mediterranean region, including the larger Mediterranean islands, east to Bulgaria, Asiatic Turkey and Ukraine. The wingspan is 4.5–7 mm. The larvae feed on Dorycnium hirsutum, Dorycnium pentaphyllum, Dorycnium rectum, Lotus corniculatus, Lotus cytisoides, Lotus ornithopodoides, Lotus pedunculatus, Lotus uliginosus and Tetragonolobus maritimus. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine consists of a long narrow corridor with a linear frass line. The corridor abruptly widens into a blotch that may occupy almost an entire leaflet at the end. The blotch mostly starts at the base of the leaflet, where most frass is concentrated. Pupation normally takes place within the mine.

Robert Bulcock (21 May 1832 – 10 May 1900) was a member of both the Queensland Legislative Council and the Queensland Legislative Assembly. Early life Bulcock was born in Clitheroe, Lancashire, to Robert Bulcock, an overlooker in a cotton factory, and his wife, Ann (née Wilkinson). His family were strict Congregationalists, a belief he followed his entire life. Bulcock arrived in Queensland in 1855 and took up farming before becoming a seedsman and produce merchant in Queen Street, Brisbane. He was president of the Temperance Council and his strict adherence to its views made him unpopular in many quarters. In the late 1870s, Bulcock became involved in the publication of the Queensland Evangelical Standard and, although remaining involved with the temperance movement, he retired from business to enter politics. Political In October 1885, Bulcock won the seat of Enoggera in a by-election bought on by the resignation of John Bale. He held the seat for two and a half years but did not stand for re-election at the 1888 colonial election. Bulcock was called up to the Legislative Council in October 1894 and held the seat till his death six years later. Personal life Before he left Clitheroe in England, Bulcock married Elizabeth Grandidge, of Shipton, Yorkshire, and together they had eleven children. Bulcock died in 1900 and was buried in Toowong Cemetery. Bulcock was a man of strong character, and once he decided on a course of action, he would not stray from that line.

All Saints College is a dual-campus independent Roman Catholic co-educational secondary day school, located in the Hunter Valley region of New South Wales, Australia. The College is administered by the Catholic Schools Office of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Maitland-Newcastle. The College's has two campuses, both located in . The St Mary's campus caters for students in Year 11 and Year 12. The St Peter's campus caters for students in Year 7 to Year 10. History The forebears of All Saints College are St John's Boys School, a primary school established in 1838, St Mary’s Dominican Convent School, established in 1867, and the Marist Brothers High School, Maitland (later known as St Peter's High School). In September 1990 Bishop Leo Clarke (the Bishop of the Diocese of Maitland Newcastle) announced that the three local single-sex Catholic high schools would become co-educational, and united under the banner of All Saints College. St Joseph's College, in the rural village of Lochinvar, and St Peter's were to be Years 7–10 and St Mary's, Years 11–12. The three schools began to operate in their current co-educational format in 1992. The St Mary's and St Peter's campuses are situated in the heart of Maitland and the St Joseph's campus is situated west of Maitland. Following a Study into the Provision of Catholic Education in the Diocese of Maitland-Newcastle, in 2018 St Joseph's College, Lochinvar terminated its membership of All Saints College and became a stand-alone Years 7–12 school. In 2016, it was announced that St Peter's Campus, Maitland principal Michael Blake had secured the position of principal at Champagnat College, and concluded his role at St Peter's at the end of Term 2. All Saints College is going to convert the school to one campus being St Peters. St Mary’s will then be converted into a university.

David Lapsley (7 April 1924 – 15 January 2001) was a Scottish footballer. Schoolboy career and World War II Bainsford School in Falkirk were first to be rewarded with Lapsley's footballing talents and the highlight of this stage of his early football days was the trial with the Scottish schoolboys side. He went on to play with Bonnyrigg Rose at a juvenile level before, in 1940, taking the junior route to Bathgate Thistle. World War II prevented any further advance in Lapsley's career as he was called up for service with the Royal Navy, stationed initially at Birkenhead then Hayling Island. During the war he was involved in the D-Day landings, stationed on a converted Thames barge to ferry ammunition across the English Channel. St Mirren Lapsey started his senior footballing career with Tranmere Rovers after returning home from service in the Navy at the end of World War II. Lapsley signed for St Mirren in the summer of 1946 almost by accident; he was visiting Scotland when the St Mirren manager at the time, Bobby Rankin, invited him for a trial, although he was due to join Everton on a months trial on his return to England. The trial consisted of him taking penalty kicks against a young goalkeeper, Gordon Rennie, and on the basis of this he was invited to the boardroom to sign right away. He made his first team debut on 4 September that year against Partick Thistle. Lapsley was originally signed as a centre forward but quickly established himself as a right back and was well known in Paisley for his strong, committed approach to the game, and was more recently compared to modern-day footballer Jörg Albertz for the directness of his free-kicks and penalties. With every penalty, Lapsley would get one of his strikers to place the ball on the spot before he would start his 30 or 40-yard run-up to strike the ball with blistering power. During his time with the Paisley club he captained them to an historic 1959 Scottish Cup Final win, the team defeating Aberdeen 3–1 in front of 108,951 supporters and after the final whistle his teammates carried him shoulder high from the pitch. Along with his 1959 Scottish Cup winning shirt and medal on permanent display in the Scottish Football Museum at Hampden Park, there is also footage of Lapsley after the 1959 Scottish Cup win talking to a mass crowd, gathered in Paisleys' County Square, from the balcony of The Paisley Council Chamber where he builds the excitement in the crowd by asking "Who was it that won the Cup?", with the crowd rapturously and loudly responding "St Mirren!" . Towards the latter end of his career with St Mirren, Lapsley was on a part-time contract whilst working through the week as a tanker driver for BP, and although he vowed to retire after the 1959 Scottish Cup, he did play one more match at the beginning of the following season when they beat Greenock Morton in the Renfrewshire Cup Final. Legacy In 2005, St Mirren officially inducted David Lapsley into their hall of fame. Lapsley was further honoured in 2008 when local councillor George Adam, who is a Saints supporter, elected to name a new street in his ward after the St Mirren legend, and as a result Lapsley Avenue was commissioned. Lapsley was also chosen to represent the Scottish League XI twice, playing against the Irish League XI and the (English) Football League select team, getting on the scoresheet in a 3–0 win against the former. He was also selected by Scotland on more than twenty occasions as understudy to Rangers captain George Young, but Lapsley never played for his country. Following Lapsley's death, a one-minute silence was held in his memory at the Scottish Cup tie between St Mirren and Motherwell on 27 January 2001. His ashes were ceremoniously buried under the penalty spot at the home end of Love Street.

Gil Jamieson (31 January 1934 – 14 June 1992) was an Australian painter. Jamieson was born in the central Queensland town of Monto in 1934 and died there in 1992. Career Jamieson liked to be thought of as a Romantic. He objected to the labels of art commentators. He painted figurative art works, landscape art works, and portraits striking for their passionate intensity of both subject and colour. He wrestled with the tough reality of survival in the bush and lived the landscape that he painted. He lived and worked on the land with his family raising cattle on a bush block near Monto. He embarked on extensive expeditions throughout Australia capturing the subtle beauty and magnificence of the country in gouaches he called his 'sonnets'. His 72-foot 360 degree mural Jay Creek (depicting Jay Creek, Northern Territory), an oil on canvas, painted on location in Central Australia, his largest and a most engrossing work was painted in four days in searing heat. Jamieson regarded himself as a self-taught artist, however he attended Brisbane Central Technical College (with Melville Haysom), 1956–57. While in Brisbane he aspired to political cartooning, worked as a quick sketch artist outside a nightclub and held his first exhibition at a Brisbane pub Jamieson and his wife Maureen moved from Monto to Melbourne and his career flourished. His work was taken up by John Reed of Heide Museum of Modern Art where he exhibited. He developed strong friendships with fellow artists: George Johnson, Fred Williams, John Perceval, Edwin Tanner to name a few. These friendships sustained and affirmed his contribution to Australian art as later in his career, fellow artists such as Cliff Pugh and Arthur Boyd supported his work. He chose to return to the bush and relative obscurity returning regularly to exhibit in Melbourne. Throughout his career Jamieson had many supporters of his work including Kym Bonython and Rudy Komon. He had a long association with Rockhampton exhibiting there and in Brisbane regularly throughout his career. Rockhampton Art Gallery toured a retrospective for two years throughout regional Australia and overseas 1997–9.
