Mark Tkaciuk (, born 26 September 1966) is a Moldovan politician, historian, archaeologist and anthropologist, former member of the Parliament of the Republic of Moldova.
Biography
He was born in 1966, in Soroca, Moldavian SSR. His father is of Moldovan-Ukrainian origin and his mother, originating in the Caucasus, of Armenian-Hemshin origin. He graduated from the History Faculty at the State University of Moldova. From 1992 to 1994 he studied at the Academy of Sciences of Russia. According to some sources, during this period he was part of the far-left Confederation of Anarcho-Syndicalists.
At the beginning of 2000 he joined the Party of Communists of the Republic of Moldova. In 2001-2002 he was a Member of the Parliament of the Republic of Moldova, giving up his mandate to become adviser to President Vladimir Voronin in domestic policy, a position he had held until November 2008. During this period he became one of the leaders of the Communist Party, working on the modernization of the party. He is believed to have negotiated the accession of the PCRM to the Party of the European Left. The opposition criticized him for his strong pro-Russian, Moldovenist, anti-European and anti-Romanian position, characterizing him as "Moscow's right hand man".
In 2005 and 2006, VIP Magazine included mark Tkaciuk in the top "most influential Moldovans" at 11 and 6, respectively.
After 2009, when the PCRM entered the opposition, Mark Tkaciuk started to support more strongly a party reform. He started to be labeled as the "brain" or the "gray eminence" of the party, as well as "Voronin's child". Together with Voronin, he became a voical critic of the European Union, supporting the accession of Moldova to the Eurasian Union, stating that Chișinău had streets named after fascist criminals (referring to the streets named by Romanian personalities). In early 2010 he was also associated with the Antifa movement in Moldova, known for quasi-terrorist activities, which is why in 2014 he was excluded from the executive committee of PCRM. In the same year he announced he was withdrawing from politics.
He returned to politics in 2019 when, together with Iurie Muntean, he founded the Collective Action Party – Civic Congress. He is currently a member of the executive committee of the party.

Over the past two centuries, the relationship between Native American people and Mormonism has included friendly ties, displacement, battles, slavery, education placement programs, and official and unofficial discrimination. Native American people (also called American Indians) were historically considered a special group by adherents of the Latter Day Saint movement (Mormons) since they were believed to be the descendants of the Lamanite people who are described in The Book of Mormon. Today there are many Native American members of Mormon denominations as well as many people who are critical of Mormonism and its teachings and actions around Native American people.
History
Under Joseph Smith
Mormonism's founder Joseph Smith was fascinated by Native Americans from an early age. Scholars Lori Taylor and Peter Manseau believe religious teachings of the late Handsome Lake relayed through his nephew Red Jacket near Smith's town influenced the 16-year-old Smith. Smith later stated that in 1823 a Native American angel visited him and told him about a record that contained an ancient history of Native Americans. Smith said he later translated this record from golden plates to The Book of Mormon. The existence of the "red sons of Israel" (i.e. Native American) was used as evidence for the authenticity of this account.
Adherents saw Native Americans as part of God's chosen people and they believed that preaching to them was part of the gathering of Israel which will precede the millennium. The church's long history with Native Americans is tied to their beliefs about The Book of Mormon. According to sociologist Marcie Goodman, historically Latter Day Saints had a paternalistic view of Native Americans that they needed help. The first Mormon outreach to the Native Americans was in 1830 called the "Lamanite Mission" only six months after Joseph Smith founded the Church of Christ. Though they did not have any converts and reception was lukewarm among the Seneca, Wyandot, and Shawnee people, they were well received by the Deleware people because The Book of Mormon advocated for a divine destiny for Native Americans and a divine right to their territory in the American "promised land".
During the 1840s, Smith sent missionaries to the Sioux (Dakota), Potawatomi (Bodéwadmi), Stockbridge (Mahican) people in Wisconsin and Canada. Additionally, representatives from the Sauk (Asakiwaki) and Fox (Meskwaki) people met with Smith at the Latter Day Saint headquarters in Nauvoo, Illinois. Later, Potawatomi leaders asked the Mormons to join them in an alliance with some other tribes, but Smith declined.
Under Brigham Young
After Smith's death and six months of a succession crisis, Brigham Young became leader of the majority of Smith's followers and the largest denomination in the Latter Day Saint movement, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). Young discussed an alliance with some Native American nations with other top leaders but these efforts were abandoned in 1846 as Young's followers were preparing to migrate west. According to former Church Historian Marlin Jensen in the Great Basin where the saints were to settle there were already about 20,000 Native Americans including the Shoshone, Goshute, Ute, Paiute, and Navajo. The settlers had some peaceful relations, but because resources were scarce in the desert hostilities broke out. As more immigrants arrived and took over the land, and resources Native Americans had used for thousands of years diminished they felt they had to resist for their survival. By 1890 Native Americans made up only 1.6% of Utah's population. Over a century later in 2010 that number had remained about the same at 1.3%. Under Young violence broke out between Native Americans and the settlers, though Young stated, "towards so degraded and ignorant a race of people, it was manifestly more economical and less expensive, to feed and clothe, than fight them."
Young taught that cursed lineages were in a three-tiered classification of redemption with Lamanites (Native Americans) on top, Jewish people in the middle, and Cain's descendants (Black people) on the bottom. This corresponded to the time when they would each receive the gospel with Native Americans in the foreseeable future, Jewish people after they were gathered at Jesus Christ's Second Coming, and Black people in the afterlife during the resurrection.
In the 1890s James Mooney of the Smithsonian Institution of Bureau of American Ethnology, and Missouri military commander Nelson Miles placed some blame on Mormons for the events that precipitated in the Wounded Knee Massacre. Some later scholars perpetuated these ideas, however, historical evidence does not support them.
Though, nearly killed by US soldiers in the 1863 Bear River Massacre, Chief Sagwitch became a notable ally of Young and church member by 1873. 100 of his people were also baptized into the LDS Church, and they settled and farmed in Washakie, Utah. They also contributed large amounts of labor towards the building of the Logan Utah Temple in the 1870s and 80s. Sagwitch's grandson Moroni became the first Native American bishop in the LDS Church.
20th Century
During the century between 1835 and 1947 the official LDS hymnbook had lyrics discussing Native Americans which included the following statements: "And so our race has dwindled/ To idle Indian hearts ... And all your captive brothers/ From every clime shall come/ And quit their savage customs", "Great spirit listen to the Red Man's wail! ... Not many moons shall pass away before/ the curse of darkness from your skins shall flee". In 1975 George P. Lee became the first Native American LDS general authority, though he was excommunicated in 1989, and later pleaded guilty in 1994 to having groped a young girl. By 1977 the LDS Church stated that there were almost 45,000 Native American members in the US and Canada (a number larger than any other Christian denomination except the Roman Catholic Church).
21st Century
No evidence of the large civilizations or battles described in The Book of Mormon have been found by anthropologists and archaeologists, and DNA studies of Native Americans show that their came from Asia during the latest ice age, and not from the Middle East. Beginning in 1945 then apostle Spencer Kimball was assigned to be over church relations with Native Americans, and he would go on to become president of the church and was very influential in church actions and teachings around Native Americans for four decades until his death in 1985. The LDS Church altered statements after 2007 to say that Lamanites are "among the ancestors" rather than the "principal ancestors" of Native Americans. Church manuals state that Christopher Columbus was inspired by God to sail to the Americas, and The Book of Mormon teaches that because the Lamanites sinned against God, they lost their lands and became "scattered and smitten". LDS-raised and ethnically native Alaskan Sarah Newcomb stated that this framing excuses the genocide of Native Americans during the post-Columbus European colonization of the Americas.
Native American enslavement
The LDS Church's stance towards slavery alternated several times in its history, from one of neutrality, to anti-slavery, to pro-slavery. Smith had at times advocated both for and against slavery, eventually coming to take an anti-slavery stance later in his life. Young was instrumental in officially legalizing Native American slavery in the Utah Territory. Soon after Mormons colonized the Salt Lake Valley in 1847 child slaves became a vital source of their labor, and were exchanged as gifts. Within a decade of settling the Salt Lake Valley over 400 Native American children were purchased and lived in Mormon homes. They were "indentured" for up to 20 years.
Leader Brigham Young advocated buying children held by Native Americans and Mexican traders as slaves, and encouraged Latter-day Saints to educate and acculturate the children as if they were their own. However, despite the requirement to educate the Native American indentured servants, the majority had received no formal education according to an 1860 census. Young's spouse owned a Native American slave Kahpeputz. At age seven she was kidnapped from her Bannock family and tortured, and later purchased by Brigham Young's brother-in-law and gifted to one of Young's wives and renamed Sally. She was a servant in the Young household for over a decade working long hours with the rest of the servants and was not taught to read or write.
While considering appropriations for Utah Territory, Representative Justin Smith Morrill criticized the LDS Church for its laws on Indian slavery. He said that the laws were unconcerned about the way the Indian slaves were captured, noting that the only requirement was that the Indian be possessed by a white person through purchase or otherwise. He said that Utah was the only American government to enslave Indians, and said that state-sanctioned slavery "is a dreg placed at the bottom of the cup by Utah alone". The Republicans' abhorrence of slavery in Utah delayed Utah's entrance as a state into the Union. In 1857, Representative Justin Smith Morrill estimated that there were 400 Indian slaves in Utah. Richard Kitchen has identified at least 400 Indian slaves taken into Mormon homes, but estimates, even more, went unrecorded because of the high mortality rate of Indian slaves. Many of them tried to escape. Slavery in Utah ended in 1862 when Congress abolished it.
Violence
Violence between Mormon adherents and Native Americans include the Battle Creek massacre, Salt Creek Canyon massacre, Fountain Green massacre, Bear River Massacre, Battle at Fort Utah, Ute Wars, and Posey War.
In 1857 LDS militiamen dressed up as Native Americans and recruited some Southern Paiutes to join in the Mountain Meadows Massacre in order to give the impression of tribal hostilities. During the militia's first assault on the wagon train, the emigrants fought back, and a five-day siege ensued. Eventually, fear spread among the militia's leaders that some emigrants had caught sight of the white men, likely discerning the actual identity of a majority of the attackers. As a result, militia commander William H. Dame ordered his forces to kill all the adults. 120 men, women, and children were slaughtered and their bodies left unburied. The massacre almost pushed the US government into the Utah War with the LDS Church.
Indian Placement Program
The Indian Placement Program (also called the Indian Student Placement Program and the Lamanite Placement Program) was operated by the LDS Church in the United States, officially operating from 1954 and virtually closed by 1996. It had its peak during the 1960s and 1970s. Native American students who were baptized members of the LDS Church were placed in foster homes of LDS members during the school year. They attended majority-white public schools, rather than the Indian boarding schools or local schools on the reservations. This was in line with the Indian Relocation Act of 1956. An LDS author wrote in 1979 that in southeast Idaho Native Americans from reservations were often treated with disdain by LDS and non-LDS white people.
The program was developed according to LDS theology, whereby conversion and assimilation to Mormonism could help Native Americans. An estimated 50,000 Native American children went through the program. The foster placement was intended to help develop leadership among Native Americans and assimilate them into majority-American culture. The cost of care was borne by the foster parents, and financially stable families were selected by the church. Most of these placements took place on the Navajo Nation, with a peak participation of 5,000 students in 1972. The program decreased in size after the 1970s, due to criticism, changing mores among Native Americans, and restriction of the program to high school students as schools improved on reservations. In the 70s and 80s more Native Americans attended the church's Brigham Young University than any other major US institution of higher learning. Many of the students and families praised the program; others criticized it and the LDS Church for assimilationist policies weakening the Native Americans' ties to their own cultures.
In the spring of 2015, four plaintiffs (now referred to as the "Doe Defendants") filed suit in the Window Rock District of the Navajo Nation Tribal Court, alleging they had been sexually abused for years while in the foster program, roughly from the years 1965 to 1983, and the LDS Church did not adequately protect them. The LDS church filed suit in federal district court in Salt Lake City, alleging that the Tribal Court did not have jurisdiction and seeking an injunction "to stay the proceedings from moving forward under tribal jurisdiction." Federal district court judge Robert Shelby denied the church's motion to dismiss and also ruled that it first had to "exhaust all remedies" in Tribal Court.
Teachings on Native American skin color
Several church leaders have stated The Book of Mormon teaches that Native Americans have dark skin (or "curse of redness") because their ancestors the Lamanites were cursed by God, and through following church teachings Native Americans can have their dark skin removed. One passage in the book states that, "[God] had caused the cursing to come upon [the Lamanites] ... because of their iniquity ... wherefore, as they were white, and exceeding fair and delightsome, that they might not be enticing unto my people [the Nephites] the Lord God did cause a skin of blackness to come upon them." During the century between 1835 and 1947 the official LDS hymnbook had lyrics discussing a lightening of Native American skin color stating, "Great spirit listen to the Red Man's wail! ... Not many moons shall pass away before/ the curse of darkness from your skins shall flee". They taught that in the afterlife's highest degree of heaven Native American's skin would become "white in eternity" like everyone else. They often equated whiteness with righteousness, and taught that originally God made his children white in his own image. A 1959 report by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights found that most Utah Mormons believed "by righteous living, the dark-skinned races may again become 'white and delightsome'." Conversely, the church also taught that white apostates would have their skins darkened when they abandoned the faith.
In 1953 President of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles Joseph Fielding Smith stated, "After the people again forgot the Lord ... the dark skin returned. When the Lamanites fully repent and sincerely receive the gospel, the Lord has promised to remove the dark skin. ... Perhaps there are some Lamanites today who are losing the dark pigment. Many of the members of the Church among the Catawba Indians of the South could readily pass as of the white race; also in other parts of the South." Additionally, in a 1960 LDS Church General Conference, apostle Spencer Kimball suggested that the skin of Latter-day Saint Native American was gradually turning lighter. Mormons believed that through intermarriage, the skin color of Native Americans could be restored to a "white and delightsome" state. Navajo general authority George Lee stated that he had seen some LDS Indians upset over the teachings and that they don't want their skin color changed and like being brown so he avoided teaching about that. Lee interpreted the teachings to mean everyone's skin would be changed to a dazzling white in the celestial kingdom. Kimball, however, suggested that the skin lightening was a result of the care, feeding and education given to Native American children in the home placement program.
In 1981 church leaders changed a scriptural verse about Lamanites in The Book of Mormon from stating "they shall be a white and delightsome people" to "a pure and delightsome people". Thirty-five years later in 2016 the LDS Church made changes to its online version of The Book of Mormon where phrases on the Lamanite's "skin of blackness" and them being a "dark, loathsome, and filthy" people were altered. In 2020 controversy over the topic was ignited again when the LDS church's recently printed manuals stated that the dark skin was a sign of the curse and the Lord placed the dark skin upon the Lamanites to keep the Nephites from having children with them. In recent decades, the LDS Church has condemned racism and increased its proselytization efforts and outreach in Native American communities, but it still faces accusations of perpetuating implicit racism by not acknowledging or apologizing for its prior discriminatory practices and beliefs.
Marriages between Native Americans and white Latter Day Saints
In the past, LDS Church leaders have consistently opposed marriages between members of different ethnicities, today however, interracial marriage is no longer considered a sin. Early Mormon leaders made an exception to the interracial marriage teachings by allowing white LDS men to marry Native American women, because Native Americans were viewed as being descended from the Israelites; however, leaders did not sanction white LDS women marrying Native American men. In 1890 Native Americans made up only 1.6% of Utah's population. In the 1930s many states had laws banning Native Americans from marrying white people, though, Utah did not.
On July 17, 1831, Smith said that he received a revelation in which God wanted several early elders of the church to eventually marry Native American women in a polygamous relationship so their posterity may become "white, delightsome, and just."
Though Smith's successor Young believed that Native American peoples were "degraded", and "fallen in every respect, in habits, custom, flesh, spirit, blood, desire", he also allowed Mormon men to marry Native American women as part of a process that would make their people white and delightsome and restore them to their "pristine beauty" within a few generations, However, Native American men were prohibited from marrying white women in Mormon communities. Young performed the first recorded sealing ceremony between a "Lamanite" and a white member in October 1845 when an Oneida man Lewis Dana and Mary Gont were sealed in the Nauvoo Temple. There is evidence that Young may have married his Bannock servant Kahpeputz (Sally) Young (who later married Ute chief Kanosh). Kanosh and Kahpeputz were later both buried in their LDS temple robes as is custom for LDS adherents.
By 1870 only about 30 Mormon men had Native American wives, and few further interracial marriages with Native Americans occurred. Later Mormons believed that Native American skins would be lightened through some other method. Under the presidency of Spencer W. Kimball, the church began discouraging interracial marriages with Native Americans. In 2013, the LDS Church disavowed previous teachings which stated that interracial marriage is a sin.
Other Latter Day Saint groups' teachings
In 1920 the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (now called Community of Christ) published a pamphlet titled Whence Came the Red Man which summarized The Book of Mormon stating, "two great camps ... began to quarrel bitterly among themselves. Part of them became the color of fine copper and the red brethren fought against the white."

The Bukovina District (), also known as the Chernivtsi District (), was an administrative-territorial unit of the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria within the Habsburg Monarchy in Bukovina, annexed from Moldavia. It was first a military district from 1775 to 1786 until it was officially incorporated into Galicia and Lodomeria as its own district.
History
The primary efforts of the civil authorities of the region, led by Karl von Enzenberg , were aimed at raising the region's economy, inviting colonists, merchants, artisans and more. In 1786 , the annual Petrine Fairs were organized (July 1–15), which gave a new impetus to the development of both Chernivtsi and the district as a whole. Already in 1788 there were 20 snags and 15 cellars in the city. In 1803 there were already 13 craft shops in the district center. At the beginning of the XIX century. Chernivtsi is becoming like a city. Thanks to the preferences provided by local authorities, the "construction boom" began.
At the beginning XIX century several educational institutions were opened. In 1808 the gymnasium began to operate. In 1827 the Theological Institute was opened .
After the creation of the Chernivtsi city magistrate in 1832, it was decided to build a new building for him. During 1843 to 1847 the town hall was built in the style of classicism.
In the 1820s, conscription into the Austrian army was introduced in Bukovina . The service lasted 14 years and only from 1845 was reduced to 8.
State taxes in the cities were paid to local governments and magistrates, and in the villages they were collected by dominions. At the beginning of the XIX century. the average annual income of the Austrian treasury from Bukovina averaged 1 million florins. Chamberlains and regalia disappear. The streamlining of land relations made it possible to introduce a land tax. As state property developed in the region, governing bodies were formed. In 1802, the State Property Inspectorate began its work. Construction management continued to develop, and the number of paid state medical personnel increased. Gradually, a customs service was formed in the region, headed by the Customs Inspectorate in Chernivtsi. The organization of civil administration led to the rapid growth of the administrative apparatus. Thus, in 1789 there were 206 employees in the region, in 1804 there were 232, and in 1817 there were 314.
On August 1, 1817 , Emperor Franz Josef and Empress Carolina spent four days in Bukovina . The next time Franz was in Chernivtsi was in 1823, when he met with the Russian Emperor Alexander .
Geographical location
The Bukovina district occupied the area between the Carpathians mountains and the Seret, from the middle reaches of the Dniester to about the middle reaches of Moldavia . It was located in the east of the Austrian Empire and in the southeast of the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria.
Western Bukovina was part of the Habsburg Monarchy from the second half of 1774 . Until May 1775 as a temporary military administrative-territorial unit - Chernivtsi General. It was join the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria, and the south ( districts of Seret and Suceava, and Dovgopol district ) to the Kingdom of Hungary .
However, such intentions were strongly opposed by the local population of Dovhopil region (about 90% of the population were ethnic Ruthenians and Poles), which geographically separated the mostly Romanian Suceava from Transylvania, which forced to abandon this idea.
The final decision on the future management of the region was made on August 6, 1786, during the stay in Lviv of Joseph II, who liquidated his PatentThe Military Administration of Bukovina (as having fulfilled its mission during the transition period) and annexed the Bukovina District (in full) to the Kingdom of Galicia and Volodymyria as the Chernivtsi District , later renamed the Bukovina District.
Population
The period of the region's status as a district of the Kingdom of Galicia and Lodomeria is characterized by a significant increase in population, mainly due to immigrants, colonizers and more. The tributary was recorded by both the Romanians from Transylvania and the Ruthenians from Galicia. Germans, Poles, and mostly Jews came from different regions. If as of 1786 the population of the region was estimated at 91,000 inhabitants, then in 1846
Prior to that, the population was rewritten exclusively for a religion that blurred the boundaries between Ruthenians (Ukrainians) and Wallachians (Romanians), generalizing them as Orthodox. According to the results of the 1846 census: 180,417 Ruthenians (Ukrainians) were recorded. (48.6%), Wallachians (Romanians) - 140,625 people. (37.9%), other nationalities (mainly Germans, Jews, Poles) - 50089 people. (13.5%). Such results were obtained within the Bukovyna district as a whole (northern and southern parts).
Territorial division of the district
Bukovina district was divided into four counties (until August 1, 1794 - districts ) and one separate district:
Chernivtsi County ( German: Bezirk Czernowitz).
Vyzhnytsya district
Seret County
Suceava County
Dovhopil district
Each county consisted of 12 districts with 10 communities in each.
In the military organization Bukovina district was divided into Chernivtsi and Suceava regimental districts , in the fiscal sphere - into eight tax districts.
The administrative center of the Bukovina district was the city of Chernivtsi
Administration
The last head of the military administration of Bukovina was General Karl von Enzenberg, who also became the first head of the Chernivtsi district. The governing body of the district was the K. k. Bukowiner Kreisamt ( German: K. k. Bukowiner Kreisamt ), which was directly subordinated to the specially created Galician Provincial Administration for Bukovina (K. k. Galizische Statthalterei (Angelegenheiten der Bukowina) ) in Lviv .The board was headed by the district elder, who together with the commissioners was personally appointed by Caesar, and the rest of the officials - the district headman himself. During the 63 years of existence of the Bukovina district, 11 district elders have changed. County councils were subordinated to county councils ( K. k Bezirkshauptmannschaften ), headed by county elders . Subordinated to the Bukovina District Administration, the Chernivtsi City Council continued to operate, which on September 2, 1832, was reorganized into the Chernivtsi City Magistrate, headed by the mayor.

José Sánchez Peñate, S.A. (JSP) is a corporation in the Canary Islands, Spain. It operates in the food sector, mainly in the preparation and packaging of dairy products, as well as other products such as coffees, infusions, meat products, and canned fruits. Its headquarters are located in Las Palmas, Gran Canaria.
JSP, along with the associated companies CELGAN; Industria Panificadora JSP, S.L.; and Sun-Group, currently have a staff of more than 1,000 workers total.
History
José Sánchez Peñate founded the company in 1964, with the collaboration of his son José Sánchez Rodríguez and the Molina family. The company was initially aimed at marketing bulk fruit products and infusions, and was based in a small warehouse in the Guanarteme neighborhood of Las Palmas. In the 1960s and 1970s there was a shortage of fresh milk on the Canary Islands, reaching levels that only fulfilled 20% of the population's needs. The company took advantage of these circumstances and changed course to focus its activity on packaging of dairy products.
In 1966, JSP, S.A. expanded to create a packaging plant for distribution of powdered dairy products in the Miller Bajo industrial district of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Soon after, JSP, S.A. opened its first branch in Tenerife. In this same year, the marketing of Millac powdered milk began. Subsequently, this product became the leader in the Canarian market.
In 1975, JSP, S.A. began its commercialization in the mainland of Spain, directing its activity towards the vending sector. Currently, the Madrid office in Getafe has a coffee roaster, a bottling plant for products for the vending sector, automatic machines and, more recently, a frozen pastry factory.
In 1983, JSP, S.A. purchased the Central Lechera de Tenerife: CELGAN, with which it expands its line of dairy products to yoghurts and desserts.
In 1984, JSP, S.A. expanded into Los Majuelos on the island of Tenerife, with the new plant dedicated to the roasting, packaging and marketing of coffee. In that same year, an industrial plant for dairy products was created in Güímar on Tenerife, where liquid Millac is manufactured, in addition to other brands, some of them manufactured exclusively for large distribution chains.
In 1997, JSP, S.A. began its activity in the industrial bakery sector, through MYL Alimentos, creating Industria Panificadora JSP, S.L. The projection in this sector led to JSP expanding this activity in the year 2000 with two frozen bread, pastry and pastry factories in each of the Canary Islands capitals.
At the end of 2009, after an investment of almost one million euros, a fresh pastry workshop opened in the Miller Bajo industrial district.
Brands
JSP currently sells under four brands, three dedicated to manufacturing and distribution in the food sector and one in the tourism sector. JSP markets its series of food products under the following brands:
JSP (Coffee, teas, and canned fruits)

Jeanne Odo or citizen Andotte was born in Port-au-Prince and was a former slave, an abolitionist of Saint-Domingue (now Haiti), and a supercentenarian.
At the age of 114, she presented herself to the National Convention in Paris and called for the abolition of slavery.
She was enthusiastically received, accompanied by a delegation of Blacks, at the Jacobin Club by the deputies François Louis Bourdon de l'Oise, Chabot, Maximilien de Robespierre, Jeanbon Saint-André, Legendre, Maure, and other members on June 3, 1793. Everyone applauded when Chabot swore solidarity with Black people.

Octopus sinensis (commonly the East Asian common octopus) is a mollusk belonging to the class Cephalopoda. Octopus sinensis is a well-known shallow-water benthic octopus species found in the coastal, temperature waters of South Korea, China, and Japan, closely related to the Atlantic and Mediterranean common octopus, Octopus vulgaris. Because of the morphological similarities, O. sinensis was considered synonymous with Octopus vulgaris until 2017. Octopus sinensis are carnivores that prey upon on many shallow-water animals such as crustaceans and mollusks.
Characteristics
Size and Description
The East Asian common octopus is adapted to a benthic life at the bottom of the sea. Octopus sinensis has long arms with many suckers used for catching prey, a mantle without a rigid skeleton, which allows them to inhabit and hunt in small spaces and crevices in the seabed, horizontal pupils, and versatile skin with ability to change colors and camouflage themselves with the sea floor. Compared to O. vulgaris, O. sinensis have a broader mantle and relatively shorter arms with fewer suckers.
Physiology
The East Asian common octopus goes through a several-week planktonic phase, in which they are floating in the open sea. This occurs early in their development prior to their permanent benthic habitation, similar to many benthic octopus species. During their planktonic phase, the morphology of the East Asian common octopus is similar in morphology to the juvenile and adult life forms and is termed the paralarval stage after the octopus hatches. The paralarvae have certain characteristics that differ from the adult stage, which allow them to thrive in the planktonic phase, such as transparent musculature, circular pupils rather than horizontal ones, a proportionately larger mantle (2.1 mm in length) and shorter arms with fewer suckers (three to four on each arm), and a finely toothed beak. However, not much is known about the early life stages of the East Asian common octopus in their natural habitat due to their cryptic and allusive behavior. Recent studies suggest that transition from the planktonic stage to the benthic settlement is quite complex in O. sinensis and takes them a significant amount of time.
Cultural Importance
Not until 2017 was O. sinensis named a separate species from O. vulgaris on the basis of molecular and morphological features. Both species are commercially important food sources in China and it is important to delineate the two species for sustainable and fisheries management. Due to its rapid rate of growth and its high commercial value, O. sinensis is of particular interest in aquacultural cultivation. There have been several studies since the 1960s that have attempted to rear O. sinensis and O. vulgaris aquaculturally with little success.

The Battle of Volta Mantovana was fought on the 15th of October 1080 between troops raised by the schismatic bishops of Lombardy loyal to the emperor Henry IV and to anti-pope Guibert of Ravenna against forces commanded by Matilda of Tuscany. Margravine Matilda was defeated and the pro-Imperial forces gained the upper hand.
Background
The battle took place during the Investiture Controversy opposing the reforming Papacy of pope Gregory VII and his foremost advocate Matilda to Holy Roman Emperor Henry IV. It was one of its opening military clashes, and the first significant battle of the controversy to be fought in Italy. The chronicler Bernold of Constance states clearly that the battle took place the day after Henry IV and his opponent Rudolf of Rheinfelden had clashed in Saxony near Hohenmölsen at the Battle on the Elster. Bernold states the bishops' troops were gathered from "almost the whole of Lombardy". Historian David J Hay has suggested the likely leader of the pro-Imperial troops was bishop Tedald of Milan, whose installation had sparked the controversy in the first place and who had played a key role in the synod of Brixen earlier that summer, promoting the deposition of Pope Gregory VII and the election of Guibert of Ravenna as antipope Clement III. Bonizo of Sutri's Liber ad Amicum indicates an otherwise unknown illegitimate son was commanding the army of the schismatic Lombard bishops, writing "[Henry IV]'s son fought Matilda's excellent forces and defeated them" (eius filius cum exercitus excellentissimus Matilade pugnavit et victoriam obtinuit).
Battle
The exact dynamic of the battle is unknown, as is the number of forces in the field. A very short account of the engagement is available in the Chronicon of the aforementioned Bernold of Constance (who mentions the battle as taking place "apud Vultam propre Mantuam"), while Bonizo provides no geographical location for the battle, and no description of the clash. Volta was the site of a castle and estate ("Curtis") of note once belonging to the house of Canossa, as shown by donations of property and rights over servile labor in Volta made to churches in the diocese of Mantua in 1053 and 1073 by Beatrice of Lorraine, Matilda's mother, and by Matilda herself to the bishop of Mantua in 1079. It is thus possible that the castle was thus garrisoned by forces loyal to Matilda. Bishop Hubald of Mantua was a strong ally of Matilda, and shared in her political fortunes in later years. The battle ended when the pro-Imperial forces put "the knights of the most wise duchess Matilda to flight".
Aftermath
The victory of the pro-Imperial forces allowed Henry IV (whose rival Rudolf had been killed at Hohenmölsen) to enter the March of Verona and the Lombard plains unopposed in the spring of the following year. Henry IV was in Verona in early April 1081, and soon after entered Milan in triumph. Later that year, with Lombardy securely pro-Imperial, Henry began a siege of Rome.

Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is an upcoming action role-playing video game developed by Monolith Soft and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Switch. It will be the fourth entry in Monolith Soft's Xenoblade Chronicles series as well as the eighth main entry in the Xeno series overall, and is scheduled for release in September 2022. Xenoblade Chronicles 3 will feature a narrative centered on a new cast of characters, depicting the respective futures of the worlds featured in Xenoblade Chronicles and Xenoblade Chronicles 2.
Setting
Set after the events of Xenoblade Chronicles (2010) and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (2017), Xenoblade Chronicles 3 takes place in the world of Aionios, where the mechanically proficient nation of Keves and the ether-oriented nation of Agnus are at war with one another. Among both forces are "off-seers", soldiers who play special flutes to mourn the passing of the dead. The game will feature two protagonists: Noah, an off-seer from Keves accompanied by his childhood friends Lanz and Eunie; and Mio, an off-seer from Agnus accompanied by fellow soldiers Taion and Sena.
Development
According to Tetsuya Takahashi, creator of the Xenoblade Chronicles series, the key visual depicting the broken sword of the Mechonis from Xenoblade Chronicles and the wounded Titan of Uraya from Xenoblade Chronicles 2 was first conceived between the end of development of Xenoblade Chronicles (2010) and the beginning of development of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (2017). In May 2018, series creator Tetsuya Takahashi pitched a new game concept to Nintendo. The first production group, known for their work on the Xenoblade Chronicles series, started development on a new project in August 2018 after Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna – The Golden Country went gold. In October 2018, the 1st production division of Monolith Soft, led by Tetsuya Takahashi, started hiring for a new role-playing game project in the style of previous Xenoblade Chronicles titles.
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 was announced during a Nintendo Direct presentation on February 9, 2022, for release in September 2022. The game is described as featuring a narrative that will depict the respective futures for the worlds of the previous two entries. Following the announcement, a blog post on the official Nintendo website revealed preliminary details about the game's development. Xeno series creator Tetsuya Takahashi was confirmed to be working on the game in an executive director position, while various other returning staff members from previous Xenoblade Chronicles games were revealed to be reprising their duties, including the composing team behind the first two entries and Masatsugu Saito, returning to work on the game's art alongside Koichi Mugitani.

John H. Brinkerhoff (April 14, 1835August 6, 1915) was an American newspaper publisher, postmaster, and Republican politician. He served in the Wisconsin State Assembly, representing Fond du Lac County, and was the publisher of the Waupun Times newspaper.
Biography
John H. Brinkerhoff was born in Seneca County, Ohio, on April 14, 1835. His father died when he was a child. He went to work in a printing office in Milan, Ohio, at age 18, and subsequently worked in the printing trade in Watertown, Wisconsin, Jefferson, Wisconsin, and Beaver Dam, Wisconsin. He finally moved to Waupun, Wisconsin, in 1857, and established the Waupun Times, which he published for nine years.
Brinkerhoff became a devoted Republican after that party was established in the 1850s. In 1861, he was appointed postmaster at Waupun by President Abraham Lincoln, and served as postmaster there for the next 30 years. He was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly in the 1864 election, running on the National Union Party ticket. He represented Fond du Lac County's 2nd Assembly district, which then comprised the southwest corner of the county.
In the 1890s he gave up his office as postmaster to his son, James Edwin Brinkerhoff, who was appointed by President Grover Cleveland. The elder Brinkerhoff, however, continued to work as assistant postmaster to his son.
In the Summer of 1915 he suffered a stroke and died a few days later at his home in Waupun.
Personal life and family
John Brinkerhoff was a son of Hezekiah Brinkerhoff, who served in the Pennsylvania militia during the War of 1812. The Brinkerhoffs were descended from Dutch colonists who arrived in Pennsylvania when it was part of the New Netherland colony, in the 17th century.
John Brinkerhoff married twice. His first wife was Lucy T. Stoddard, a daughter of Theodore Stoddard of New York state. They had four children before her death in 1863; two of their children died in childhood. Brinkerhoff subsequently married Jennie H. Gillette in 1867. Gillette was a daughter of M. S. Gillette of Fond du Lac. They had at least two more children.

Lester's Florist was a florist located in Savannah, Georgia, United States. Established in August 1971, it provided floral arrangements for the presidential inauguration galas of consecutive U.S. presidents. Owned by Lester Anthony for all of its 50 years in business, it closed in February 2022.
History
Lester Anthony began his floral-design business in the garage of Louise M. Jones in 1971 with, he states, $200 to his name.<ref name=smn>"From a garage to designing flowers for presidents, Lester's Florist closes after 50 years" – Savannah Morning News, February 8, 2022</ref> He remained there for five years.
After receiving a loan from Rev. Nathaniel Boles (1934–2021),"Reverend Nathaniel Niles Boles of Savannah, Georgia | 1934 - 2021 | Obituary" – Sylvania Funeral Homes, Inc. minister at Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church in Savannah, Anthony moved into his first retail shop, at 2226 Bull Street, in 1976.
In January 1985, Anthony was asked to design a floral arrangement for the inauguration gala of the 40th United States president Ronald Reagan. He was asked to do the same in 1989 for Reagan's successor, George H. W. Bush. He attended both events, and was the only black designer on each occasion. At the request of the Society of American Florists, he and the other floral designers contributed to a story written for The Washington Post'':
In 1989, Anthony constructed his own store, a single-story building at the southeastern corner of Bull Street and 37th Street, a block north of his previous location. It cost around $500,000.
For the 50th anniversary of his business, on August 9, 2021, a celebration was held. Attendees included former Mayor of Savannah Edna Jackson, while incumbent mayor Van Johnson awarded Anthony the Freedom of the City as a long-time Savannah Business Leader. Rev. Nathaniel Boles, who had given Anthony a loan in the early days of his career, died eight days later at the age of 86.
Anthony put his parcel of land on the market a couple of years before he decided to retire, but it did not sell until January 17, 2022.
Lester Anthony
Lester Anthony was born in Savannah, Georgia, the third child of ten to James and Beatrice (1927–2000). His brothers: Dr. James Jr., Battiste, Leroy. Sisters: Yvonne Smalls, Margie A. Colson, Catherine A. Moore, Louise, Eleanor and Jeanette A. Harper. He was later fostered by Mary Matthews (1922–2017). By the time of his 72-year-old mother's death, on February 29, 2000, all ten children were still living. She also had sixteen grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
He graduated Alfred Ely Beach High School in 1971, the year he started his business.
Anthony attended the South Florida School of Floral Design in Lakeland, Florida, to learn the art of floral-design. He graduated in 1972.
In August 1985, he graduated with two degrees in floral design from the Hixson School of Floral Design in Lakewood, Ohio.
He received his master's degree in floral design in 1993 from the Phil Rulloda Southern California School of Floral Design in Anaheim, California.
Anthony's foster mother, Mary B. Matthews, died on November 15, 2017, aged 95. She is buried in Savannah's Laurel Grove South Cemetery, beside the grave of deacon James Barnes (1895–1981).

Renner Ball Park is a historic baseball field on the outskirts of Renner, South Dakota, United States. It is the home of the Renner Monarchs. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 8, 2006, for its contributions to South Dakotan baseball.
The town of Renner has had a long, significant history with baseball. It was built in 1921 to host baseball games that had been held on local farms since 1899. Renner Ball Park is named after the founding family of Renner, who also owned the land the baseball field was built on. Electricity was not installed until 1950, and all prior games had to be played during the daytime. The Renner Monarchs attended the 1939 Amateur World Series national playoffs at Battle Creek, Michigan; Renner lost against Chicago Heights, 6–5. Lasting 17 innings, this was the longest game ever played in the Amateur World Series' history. At the time, Renner was the smallest town to ever qualify for a national playoff. 1939 was the first year Renner won the state championships, and they have won 20 others as of 2021. Renner has hosted the South Dakota state baseball championship four times as of 2006. In 1982, the South Dakota Legislature named Renner the "Baseball Capitol of South Dakota".
Renner Ball Park is one of the oldest still-standing original baseball fields in the United States. In the 1950s, several renovations were carried out to repair flood damage; the field was elevated and resurfaced, and the dugouts were raised to prevent rainwater accumulation. A 1963 storm destroyed the grandstand's roof and a new one was installed. The original concession stand was replaced with a new one in 1996. The field is surrounded by a chain-link fence on most sides; a wooden fence surrounds the outfield. A new scoreboard replaced the old one in the outfield in 2021.

Lochmara Bay is a large bay in Queen Charlotte Sound / Tōtaranui, New Zealand, north of Urukakea / Picton Harbour. Until the 1860s it was officially known by its Te Reo Māori name Pehautangia.
Naming
Lochmara Bay takes its name from the pastoral run set up there by Courtney Kenny (1835–1905) in 1857 called Lochmara Run. The name is a thought to be a contraction of Loch na Mara, Scottish Gaelic for "loch of the sea".
Pehautangia means "place of roaring winds", a reference to the rough gales there.
History
In 1857 Courtney Kenny took out a depasturage license for all of the land between Tōrea Moua / Tōrea Bay and Ōnahau Bay in Queen Charlotte Sound / Tōtaranui, and between Te Mahia Bay and Portage in Kenepuru Sound. He named his pastoral run Lochmara Run, a name likely reflecting the Scottish and Irish connection of his wife Georgia Kenny (1835–1899). The Lochmara Run was initially about 2,000 hectares, but Kenny disposed of some in 1860, and converted around 1766 hectares to secure leasehold and freehold tenures. The 1880 block sheets show Kenny had cleared nearly half of his land of native bush, largely on the Lochmara Peninsula, Tōrea Moua / Tōrea Bay, and Double Cove, along with a swath from West Bay to Pukatea Bay. Kenny would go on to sell portions of the run to the Gullery family, with both families running sheep there for many years. Farming would come to an end on the remains of Lochmara Run by 1960, the land having been retaken by growth, making farming impossible. The land was subdivided for holiday housing in the 1960s, with some becoming the Lochmara Bay Scenic Reserve.
By 1917 Lochmara Bay / Pehautangia had been surveyed for townships. The majority of these lots never came to fruition, but some were developed by Marlborough families, who built houses and shacks there. After the Second World War more lots were subdivided and sold, some smaller than a hectare, and holiday housing became more popular along with the advent of improved roads and railways. In 1950 Lochmara Bay / Pehautangia had around 20 buildings, today it has roughly 250 homesteads.
East & West Bay
East Bay is located near the back of Lochmara Bay / Pehautangia on its eastern coast, while West Bay is located at the very back of the bay on its west coast.
East Bay & West Bay are named for their placement within Lochmara Bay / Pehautangia.
Hautehoro Point
Hautehoro Point sits on the western tip of Lochmara Bay / Pehautangia. Evidence of pit dwellings has been found here, suggesting it may have been used as a look-out or temporary dwelling.
Hautehoro can be split into 3 Te Reo Māori words, hau meaning "wind", te meaning "the", and horo meaning "break" (as a wave). Together hautehoro can be taken to mean "breaks the wind".
Nohokouau Point
Nohokouau Point sits on the eastern tip of Lochmara Bay / Pehautangia. Nohokouau can be translated as "to sit in sprinkling rain" or "sits in the mist".
Double Cove
Double Cove is located just outside of the eastern tip of Lochmara Bay / Pehautangia. Double Cove consists of 2 arms connected by a large cove, resembling a crab claw and giving the cove its name.

Viridothelium ustulatum is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling) lichen in the family Trypetheliaceae. Found in Brazil, it was formally described as a new species in 2017 by Marcela Eugenia da Silva Cáceres and André Aptroot. The type specimen was collected by the authors along a trail near a field station in the Adolfo Ducke Forest Reserve (Manaus); here it was found growing on tree bark in old-growth rainforest. The thallus of the lichen is dull olive-green, and lacks a prothallus. The species epithet refers to the black pseudostromata (a stroma in which fungal cells and remnants of host tissue are mixed). Ascospores number eight per ascus, have three septa, and measure 17–20 by 6.5–7.5 μm. Viridothelium ustulatum does not react to any of the standard chemical spot tests, and a chemical analysis with thin-layer chromatography did not find any secondary chemicals.

Heather Evelyn Castleden (born 1970) is a Canadian geographer. Since 2021, she has been an Impact Chair in Transformative Governance for Planetary Health at the University of Victoria. She was previously the Canada Research Chair in Reconciling Relations for Health, Environments, and Communities at Queen's University at Kingston.
Early life and education
Castleden was born in 1970. She completed her Bachelor of Arts degree in anthropology and native studies at the University of Manitoba and her Master of Education and PhD at the University of Alberta. Throughout her doctorate studies, Castleden worked with Huu-ay-aht First Nations (HFN) for her thesis "As sacred as cedar and salmon: a collaborative study with Huu-ay-aht First Nation, British Columbia into understanding the meaning of 'resources' from an Indigenous worldview." She subsequently shared her research with the HFN Chief and Councilors to assist with treaty negotiations, federal court cases, and the HFN Land-use planning Team.
Career
Dalhousie University
Following her PhD, Castleden became a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Victoria (UVic) before accepting a tenure-track academic position at Dalhousie University. As an assistant professor at Dalhousie, Castleden became one of the co-principal investigators for the Atlantic Aboriginal Health Research Program (AAHRP) where she worked alongside Miꞌkmaq communities in Nova Scotia to address environmental health and social justice issues. As such, Castleden was also the 2010 recipient of the Julian M. Szeicz Award from the Canadian Association of Geographers as an early career geographer who showed research achievement and career potential. She received the award in recognition of her contribution to the geography of environment, health, and Indigenous community-based research. Beyond her work with the AAHRP, Castleden was awarded a Network for End of Life Studies Interdisciplinary Capacity Enhancement New Investigator award for her project "Traditional Stories of Death and Dying: Developing a Tool Kit for Aboriginal Palliative Care." She also taught graduate courses on Indigenous Peoples, natural resource issues, and research methods.
Due to her relationship with the Miꞌkmaq community, Castleden received two grants in 2012 to work alongside the Pictou Landing First Nation Women's Association in researching the effects of pulp waste at Boat Harbour on the population. She later received a New Investigator Salary Award from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) to support her research as a "promising new researcher."
Queen's University
Castleden eventually left Dalhousie in 2014 to become an associate professor at Queen's University at Kingston with a joint appointment between the Department of Geography and Planning and the Department of Public Health Sciences. Within two years of joining the faculty, Castleden was appointed a Tier 2 Canada Research Chair (CRC) in Reconciling Relations for Health, Environments, and Communities. In this role, Castleden also received a grant from the CIHR to establish an interdisciplinary research program on Indigenous leadership in renewable energy development titled "SHARED Future: Achieving Strength, Health, and Autonomy through Renewable Energy Development for the Future." In 2020, Castleden received a Fulbright Fellowship to conduct a 4-month research program on SHARED at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa.
UVic
Following her fellowship, Castleden left Queen's University to return to UVic as an Impact Chair in Transformative Governance for Planetary Health. At the same time, she was also elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada's College of New Scholars, Artists and Scientists for her research in partnership with Indigenous peoples.
Personal life
Castleden and her husband have two children together; a son and daughter.

Crinas (Crinias) of Marseilles was a 1st-century physician from Massilia (Marseilles), contemporary of the Emperor Nero. He practiced medicine in Massilia, having mathematical and astrological knowledge. What we know about him comes from a few lines of Pliny the Elder in his Natural History, book XXIX, 5 (9).
Having heard of Thessalus of Tralles, who made a great reputation for himself in Rome by practicing the same kind of medicine as himself, Crinas left his hometown to establish himself in Rome to compete with him. Very quickly, by his superior astrology, he diminished the credit of Thessalos by taking away half of his clients. He indeed consulted the stars before prescribing diet and meal times for his patients, according to mathematical tables, which made him pass as more prudent, more learned and more religious than other physicians.
He became so rich that, after having paid for the fortifications of several cities during his lifetime, he still left when he died, to the city of Marseilles, ten million sesterces for its fortifications.
His name is thus associated with the Hellenistic rampart of Marseille (the "Wall of Crinas"), discovered in 1913 near the Bourse, which was believed to have been built thanks to his donations. In fact the enclosure in pink limestone blocks was rebuilt in the middle of the 2nd century BC and Crinas seems to have only helped in its restoration.
A street in the 7th arrondissement of Marseille bears his name.

Zaragoza City Hall () is the seat of the city council in Zaragoza, Aragon, Spain. It is located in the Plaza of Our Lady of the Pillar, and is built in the Renaissance Revival style.
The city council was held from the Middle Ages in the Casas del Puente, named for their proximity to a bridge over the river Ebro. The buildings, which were indistinct from their neighbours, were demolished in the early 20th century. The council had held the Dominican Convent since 1837 due to laws of confiscation. It then based itself there from 1912, due to the deterioration of the previous site.
A competition was held, and the design by Alberto Acha, Mariano Nasarre and Ricardo Magdalena Gayán won in 1941. In 1945, the plan was set for the foundation and frame at a price of 5 million Spanish pesetas, and work began on 2 January 1946. Construction halted in 1951 due to exhausted funds, and remained untouched until 1954 when the mayor ordered the facade to be built for the Marian Congress due to be held in the city, at a cost of 2.4 million. The bill totalled 18 million when it opened on 6 September 1965. A reason for the costs and length of construction was that it was not built by large companies, but by guilds of master craftsmen.
The city hall is also used as an art gallery.

Common Cause was an American magazine published from 1947 to 1951 to support the movement for world government that was inspired by the invention and use of the atom bomb.
Soon after the end of World War II, a group of academics and intellectuals, many of them associated with the University of Chicago, responded to a call from University of Chicago Chancellor Robert Maynard Hutchins to draft a world constitution, joining their efforts to those of Richard McKeon and Giuseppe Antonio Borgese, who had originally conceived the task. In November 1945 the committee they formed, which included
Mortimer J. Adler, Stringfellow Barr, Albert Léon Guérard, Harold Innis, Erich Kahler, Wilber G. Katz, Charles Howard McIlwain, Robert Redfield, and Rexford Tugwell produced a Preliminary Draft of a World Constitution, later published by the University of Chicago Press (1948).
Common Cause was published from June 1947 through June 1951 in support of the project. The magazine's contributors considered their work to be similar to that undertaken in support of the Constitution of the United States by the authors of The Federalist Papers.

Lietuvininkų prietelis (original spelling: Lietuwininku Prietelis; ) was a short-lived Lithuanian-language political newspaper published in Memel (now Klaipėda) by Lutheran priest Rudolf Andreas Zippel (Rudolfas Endrius Cipelis) in 1849. It was published for less than a year, but it is considered the first "true" Lithuanian periodical (earlier Nusidavimai Dievo karalystėje contained mostly translated religious texts). It was also the first Lithuanian periodical published in the territory of present-day Lithuania.
History
During the German revolutions of 1848–1849, many activists tried to publish political proclamations and periodicals for Lithuanian-speaking Prussian Lithuanians. The first issue of Lietuvininkų prietelis was published on 5 April 1849 by publisher . It was edited by Rudolf Andreas Zippel (Rudolfas Endrius Cipelis), deacon of the Lithuanian parish in Memel. It was published weekly on Thursdays until 28 December 1849. In total, 38 issues were published.
The newspaper used Fraktur typeface and had four pages that measured . Its circulation probably did not exceed 200 copies. A full set of the newspaper issues was kept in the library of the University of Königsberg, but it was lost during World War II. Only in 1991 Lithuanian researcher Domas Kaunas discovered a copy of the first issue in the in Aachen. What is known about content of the newspaper is known from this one issue. It started with a letter from the editor and devoted most of the content to European political news from Germany, Hungary, and the First Italian War of Independence. It described the proceedings of the Frankfurt Parliament and how Russia stationed 150,000 troops near the Prussian border. Little remaining space was devoted to local issues – commemoration of the first anniversary of the German revolutions, new constitutional rights, and the importance of education.
Zippel supported the German revolutions and the new Constitution of Prussia which guaranteed some freedoms. At the same time, he promised to print articles supporting Frederick William IV of Prussia. This is interpreted by Lithuanian researchers as Zippel's caution in post-revolutionary Prussia. The newspaper ceased publication when Zippel was assigned to Darkehmen (now Ozyorsk) much further south where there were very few Lithuanian-speaking residents. Lithuanian researchers believe that the reassignment was politically motivated to force the newspaper to close. Three months after the first issue of Lietuvininkų prietelis, a much more conservative Keleivis was published with government assistance by Friedrich Kurschat in Königsberg.

The , is an archaeological site with the ruins of a Heian period Buddhist temple located in the Tsuboi neighborhood of the city of Habikino, Osaka, Japan. The temple no longer exists, but the temple grounds were designated as a National Historic Site in 1957.
Overview
The Tsuboi area of Habiniko is the birthplace of the Kawachi Genji clan, descended from Minamoto no Yorinobu (968–1048). The Kawachi Genji included Minamoto no Yoshiie who was the common ancestor of nearly all the major Minamoto generals of the Genpei War including Minamoto no Yoritomo. The temple was founded in 1043 by Yorinobu's son Minamoto no Yoriyoshi, who found a life-sized image of Senjū Kannon in the ruins of a burned down hermitage, and decided to build a new temple which would be the bodaiji of his clan. The [honzon|main image]] of the new temple was an Amida Nyorai, and the statue of Senjū Kannon was also installed. Following the exploits of his son Minamoto no Yoshiie in the Zenkunen War, and the Gosannen War, which earned him the sobrquet "Hachiman-tarō", the Tsuboi Hachimangū was also erected to the northwest of the temple.
The temple was burned down during the wars of the Nanboku-chō period. In the Edo Period, Tada Yoshinao, a descendent of the Kawachi Genji, petitioned Shogun Tokugawa Tsunayoshi to restore the temple. Yanagisawa Yoshiyasu was appointed bugyō to oversee the reconstruction. However, in 1868, with the Meiji restoration and the Haibutsu kishaku policies the new Meiji government, the temple was abandoned.
At present, only the Sanmon gate and the shōryō bell tower remain. The temple also has what it claims to be the tomb of Minamoto no Yoriyoshi and some tōrō stone lanterns that were donated during the time of Yanagisawa Yoshiyasu. The tombs of Minamoto no Yorinobu and Minamoto no Yoshiie are in the hills some 200 meters the southeast.
The temple site is about a 20-minute walk from Kaminotaishi Station on the Kintetsu Railway Kintetsu Minami Osaka Line.

The is an archaeological site with the ruins of a Kofun period factory for the production of haniwa clay funerary pottery, located in what is now the Hakucho neighborhood of the city of Habikino in Osaka Prefecture in the Kansai region of Japan. It received protection as a National Historic Site in 1973, with the area under protection expanded in 1975.
Overview
The Honda Shiratori site is located in between the Konda Mitoyama Kofun (tomb of Emperor Ōjin) and the Hakayama Kofun in the Furuichi Kofun Cluster, and was the location where the thousands of haniwa used in these, and other burial mounds in the area. The kilns are divided into two groups, with a total of eleven kiln thus far located. Each has a width of about 1.5 meters, length of about 7 meters, and is at an inclination of about 12 degrees on the slope of a hill. Only a part of each base, the fire mouth, flue and the ash field have survived. Most of the artifacts found are cylindrical haniwa pieces, but figurative haniwa pieces of various types have also been found. Nearby. the foundation pillars of several raised-floor buildings in orderly rows were found. It is possible that into the Nara period, when haniwa were no longer being produced, the site became the location of the district office for ancient Furuichi District. The remains of a Haji ware workshop from the Nara period have also been found. At present, the site is now an archaeological park with one of the kilns restored to its original appearance.
The site is about a 10-minute walk from Furuichi Station on the Kintetsu Railway Minami Osaka Line.

The 2017–18 Alaska Nanooks men's ice hockey season was the 69th season of play for the program, the 34th at the Division I level and the 5th in the WCHA conference. The Nanooks represented the University of Alaska Fairbanks and were coached by Lance West, in his 1st season.
Season
After the resignation of Dallas Ferguson, long-time assistant coach Lance West was promoted to interim head coach while the school decided who would lead the program.
The team got off to a bit of a slow start, going winless in its first four games. A sweep of arch-rival Alaska Anchorage got the team on the winning side of the ledger entering conference play, however, the Nanooks weren't able to get many wins afterwards. After notching one victory in their next seven matches, the team started showing some jam when they took down #20 Northern Michigan, 4–1. After a second sweep of the Seawolves, Alaska looked to be well positioned when they split with #8 Minnesota State in mid-January, however, goaltending became a problem afterwards. Neither regular starter Anton Martinsson nor backup Niko Della Maggiore were able to keep the keep the puck out of the net on several occasions. Unfortunately, even when they were, the offense usually failed to do much. Alaska went 2–9–1 in their last 11 games and, other than their sweep of Ferris State, Alaska wasn't able to muster much in the way of scoring. To make matters worse, they faced Alaska Anchorage in the regular season finale and were swept at home. The two wins for the Seawolves were half of their total for the year and seemed to take the fight out of the Nanooks.
Alaska just held onto the 8th and final spot for the WCHA Tournament and the team's reward was to face Minnesota State, who had now risen to #3 in the polls. Alaska was trounced in the two games, getting outshot 45–78 and outscored 4–14. After the team's melt-down in the later part of the season, Alaska decided not to retain Lance West and instead turned the team over to his assistant, Erik Largen.

The Sitting Bull Crystal Cavern Dance Pavilion is a historic event venue on the south side of U.S. Highway 16 northeast Rockerville, South Dakota. Built in 1934, it hosted the Duhamel Sioux Indian Pageant, a Lakota tourist performance created by Black Elk in 1927. The pageant ran every summer until its discontinuation in 1957. A major attraction in the 1930s, its purpose was to not only profit off of tourism to the nearby Black Hills and Mount Rushmore but also—according to Black Elk—to represent Lakota traditions in a respectful, authentic way. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1995 as a venue of enduring cultural and religious significance, and for its association with Black Elk.
History
Black Elk, a local Lakota medicine man and community leader, established the Duhamel Sioux Indian Pageant around 1927; this was the first public Native American-created dance pageant in the United States, as those preceding it had been established by non-Native-owned Wild West shows. Black Elk himself had toured internationally with Buffalo Bill in the late 19th century. Black Elk aimed to preserve Lakota culture "and, at the same time, to teach non-Indian tourists that the Lakota were not savages and that their culture was a thing of beauty which deserved respect". Black Elk had a close friendship with the Duhamel family from nearby Rapid City, and in its early years, the pageant was held at the Duhamels' general store. Alex Duhamel, the patriarch of the family, had moved to Rapid City in 1879 and traded with the local Lakota, with whom he had formed a good relationship. In 1929, the Duhamels purchased the land on which the Sitting Bull Crystal Caverns are located, just off South Dakota Highway 16; tourists traveling from Rapid City to Mount Rushmore had to drive past it, and the caverns themselves thus became a popular tourist stop. For the same reason, Black Elk deemed the entry road to the caverns as a good location for the pageant's theater. Additionally, the caverns themselves and the greater Rockerville Gulch area are sacred and culturally significant to the Lakota.
Alex Duhamel and his sons Pete and Bud helped build the pavilion, which was completed in 1934. A tipi-shaped building was constructed outside the hall to be used for ticket sales. A model of a traditional Lakota village, called the Sioux Indian Village, was also set up at this time next to the pavilion. Guests could walk through this village and interact with performers from the show; tribe members also sold their own wares here, which were available for purchase. Sitting Bull's name was appended to the attraction in honor of the late chief; one of the pageant performers was his nephew, John Sitting Bull.
Public performances were held twice daily—once in the morning and again in the evening—during the summer months from 1934 to 1957. Performers stayed at a private campsite on the grounds behind the village and proceeded from there to the pavilion, led by Alex and Peter Duhamel. Peter was also the original translator and emcee for the event. The pageant consisted of traditional Lakota ceremonies, led by Black Elk himself, which included healing, holy pipe, burial, and mourning rituals. Dances included the Ghost Dance, Sun Dance, and a Rabbit Dance, the latter of which the public was invited to participate in. New ceremonies were introduced for special occasions or to attract fresh publicity; an advertisement from 1940 promoted a "dog feed", in which the Lakota would roast and prepare a dog for a feast; and a "horse dance", which used horses to represent the four directions of the Earth. At the end of each performance, a hat was passed around for donations, and those proceeds went directly to the performers.
The 1883 Code of Indian Offenses had prohibited Native Americans—particularly the Lakota—from performing most of these rituals and dances, including the Ghost and Sun Dances, and was especially enforced after the Ghost Dance War and subsequent Wounded Knee Massacre in 1890. Thus, when the Sioux Falls Dance Pageant began performing in 1927, its ceremonies were technically illegal under United States law, until the repeal of this ban later in 1934. A 1940s advertisement claimed that the pageant had received "special permission" from the federal government to continue.
Traveling shows were also performed in Rapid City and across the Midwest. Once a day during the summer months, a group of dancers would perform outside the Duhamels' downtown mercantile store or at Baken Park in Rapid City; the downtown performances were later canceled due to traffic concerns. Other cities where shows were performed included Omaha, Nebraska; and Cedar Falls, Iowa in 1938. Chief Red Bear joined the group at their Cedar Falls shows; he and Black Elk also spoke about their experience at the Wounded Knee Massacre there.
After the outbreak of World War II, the deaths of both Alex and Peter Duhamel in 1941, and Black Elk's death in 1950, interest in the pageant waned. Bud Duhamel had taken over operations after the deaths of his father and brother. Black Elk had retired some years prior to his death, and it became difficult for the Duhamels to find Lakota who were willing to perform after his departure from the show. The Duhamel Sioux Indian Pageant eventually closed in 1957. Bud Duhamel continued to operate the Sitting Bull Crystal Caverns until 1998; the caverns themselves were open to public tours until 2015. Today, the dance pavilion is used as storage space. On December 14, 1995, the pavilion was added to the National Register of Historic Places for its cultural and religious significance, contribution to Lakota history, and its association with Black Elk.
Reception and impact
The Duhamel Sioux Indian Pageant was well-received by tourists, who often sold out the venue. The opportunity to meet Native Americans enticed white tourists from across the country. The Duhamels' personal business in Rapid City also saw an increase in sales due to the name association. The pageant was so successful and the economic opportunities so promising that many Lakota began performing in new cultural events in communities across the Black Hills—such as Deadwood, Hot Springs, Wind Cave National Park, and Custer State Park―and even began selling entry to their campsites.
The pageant and associated tourism provided a good source of income for the dancers during the Great Depression, which had heavily damaged the Black Hills' economy and left local families struggling, including many Lakota. Employment opportunities were already limited for Native Americans, who had not been allowed to leave their reservations without special permission until the 1920s. Most buildings there lacked water and electricity, and food was scarce. Land on the reservations was usually of poor quality for farming. The pageants, parades, and other tourist attractions in the Black Hills created a respite from poverty.
Anywhere from 25 to 50 Lakota participated in each performance and the greater Sitting Bull Crystal Caverns property; bands with a confirmed presence included the Sicangu, Oglala, and Hunkpapa. Performers often brought their families to live with them at the campsite during the summer, and these family members would often work in other roles at the pavilion or the caverns. Primary accounts from employees themselves say that the Lakota performers were respected and never mistreated. Additionally, the sale of their own homemade goods and crafts in the mock village area generated additional income for the performers and their families. The pageant provided an outlet for the Lakota to perform the ceremonies that had been suppressed for decades by the United States government. Lakota could also now afford to visit, and live at, sites that were culturally and spiritually important, such as the Sitting Bull Crystal Caverns, the nearby Wind Caves, and the Black Hills themselves.
However, offensive language and stereotypes were often used to promote the show as an exotic spectacle. Although Black Elk had authored the show, he could not control the language used for its publicity. Newspaper and radio advertisements exploited the public's perception of Native traditions as "savage" and violent, and implied that the performers were of a bygone time. One newspaper advertisement from 1940 read, "The soft beat of the tom-tom mingled with the savage war cry of the last savage will make your blood tingle."
Architecture
The pavilion is an octagonal theatre in the round, constructed out of white vertical wooden boards and on a poured concrete foundation. All eight sides have large swinging double doors that provide multiple entry points. The low-grade conical roof is supported by a central hexagonal column and tie beams that run the length of the ceiling. An octagonal cupola sits atop the roof; both are topped with asphalt shingles. The inside features five large murals depicting local places of interest created by Sicangu artist Godfrey Broken Rope. The inside has remained unchanged since 1957, when the audience bleachers were removed. The tipi structure that was used for ticket sales was demolished in the early 1990s.
A sculpture, crafted from three wooden arches, sits just south of the pavilion. The arches were originally intended to be installed in the Keystone Wye bridge in 1967 but were rejected after they fell off of a truck en route to the construction site. Although deemed structurally sound, the South Dakota Department of Transportation decided to take no chances and retired the potentially-damaged load. These arches were intended to be displayed at the Rushmore Memorial Arch Park, which was never completed, and were later moved to their present-day location.

Cheok Hong Cheong (23 November 185120 June 1928), also known as Zhang Zhuoxiong (), was a Chinese-born Australian missionary, political activist, writer, and businessman. Originally a Presbyterian elder, he became the superintendent of the Anglican mission in Melbourne. A staunch campaigner against anti-Chinese sentiment in Australia, he co-authored a booklet titled The Chinese Question in Australia (1879) with Lowe Kong Meng and Louis Ah Mouy. He was also opposed to the British opium trade.
Early life and education
Cheong was born on 23 November 1851 in Foshan, Guangdong, China. His grandfather was a banker whose business collapsed after the Taiping Rebellion. His father, Cheong Peng-nam, arrived in Victoria in 1854 during the Victorian gold rush, and converted to Christianity in 1860. Cheong had two sisters, Fong-sen and Ah Chin; in 1863, after his father had become permanently employed as a Presbyterian missionary in Australia, Cheong emigrated to Victoria with his mother Yeet Kwy Phang See and his siblings. They were all baptised at St John's Presbyterian Church in Ballarat in 1866.
Following the death of Cheong's mother in June 1871, the family relocated to Melbourne. Cheong's studies were reportedly so exceptional that his tuition fees were borne by his teachers. He spent two years at Ballarat College and another three at Scotch College. He was admitted into the University of Melbourne in 1875, becoming the first Chinese in Victoria to matriculate, although he did not attend, much less graduate.
Career
Cheong studied at the Presbyterian Theological Hall on a scholarship from the Presbyterian Church, although he dropped out midway in 1875, after a dispute regarding the Chinese mission that he worked at. From 1875 to 1885, Cheong sold bananas with his father in Fitzroy. In 1879, with his father's friend Lowe Kong Meng and fellow community leader and mentor Louis Ah Mouy, Cheong published a thirty-one-page pamphlet titled The Chinese Question in Australia, which defended Chinese immigration and protested against the discrimination that the Chinese had been facing in Australia. According to writer Ian Welch, Cheong was the main author of the document, with Ah Mouy and Kong Meng "approving" its contents. In an interview with The Essex County Standard, Cheong pushed back against xenophobic attitudes towards Chinese immigration and opined that China was a pacifist country, "having manifested no desire to covet her neighbours' territories." In 1885, Cheong accepted a salaried position at the Church Missionary Society of Victoria. The same year, after impressing Bishop James Moorhouse with "such a remarkable address" at the Anglican Board of Missions' annual meeting, Cheong was appointed as the superintendent of the Church of England of Melbourne, which necessitated his giving up of his role as a Presbyterian elder.
In 1887, two Imperial Commissioners, General Wong Yung Ho and Commissioner U Tsing, arrived in Melbourne as part of their inquiry into the treatment of Chinese subjects overseas. The trio of Cheong, Kong Meng, and Ah Mouy presented the commissioners with a petition that had forty-four other signatories, calling for the "international wrong" that was anti-Chinese sentiment in Australia to be righted. Cheong was particularly opposed to the Immigration Restriction Act 1901. He was the president of the Commonwealth Chinese Community's Representative Committee, which had been founded in direct response to the act. He was also a vociferous critic of the British opium trade, which he described as "pernicious", and travelled across England to lecture on the subject. Cheong claimed to have received death threats because of his anti-opium activism.
Personal life
Despite the fact that he had arrived in Australia with no knowledge of the language, Cheong was eventually able to speak and write in "perfect English". He was also proficient in French, German, Italian, and Spanish and "had more than a passing acquaintance" with Malay and Hindustani. A March 1927 report by the Sydney-based Smith's Weekly alleged that Cheong was the "wealthiest Chinaman in Melbourne", with numerous properties to his name.
In 1869, Cheong married Wong Toy Yen, with whom he had two daughters and five sons. She died on 14 February 1927; Cheong died a year later on 20 June 1928 at his residence "Pine Lodge", in Croydon, Victoria. He was survived by six of his children. The Brisbane Courier celebrated him as "one of the foremost Chinese citizens in Australia".

Tallano gold refers to a set of interrelated conspiracy theories that supposedly state that before Spain colonized the Philippines, the archipelago and surrounding territories were ruled by the Tagean Tallano family, that the family owned a vast amount of gold, and that the former president Ferdinand Marcos obtained his family's unexplained wealth by receiving some of the Tallano gold as payment for legal services. Offshoots of the conspiracy theories include tales that the country's national hero José Rizal survived his execution, that the gold reserves were used to fund the Vatican, or that the gold was instrumental in starting the World Bank.

It runs south-west, becoming Toowoomba-Karara Road as it runs between and . It passes through as Wyreema One Mile Road and Balgour Street before again becoming Toowoomba-Karara Road. This runs south to , following the railway line. It passes through Cambooya as Railway Street, Quarry Street and Alfred Street before reaching an intersection with Cambooya Connection Road (State Route 48). Here it turns west on William Street as State Route 48, soon becoming Toowoomba-Karara Road again.
The road continues south-west through , , and before reaching . In Felton it passes exits to Felton-Clifton Road and Pittsworth-Felton Road. As it enters Leyburn it passes exits to Leyburn-Cunningham Road (Tourist Drive 12) and Millmerran-Leyburn Road. It runs through Leyburn as Dove Street and turns south as Toowoomba-Karara Road. The road ends in Karara at an intersection with the Cunningham Highway.
Land uses along this road is primarily rural, including some areas of native vegetation.
State Route 48
State Route 48 starts as Cambooya Connection Road at an intersection with the New England Highway in Cambooya, east of Cambooya village. It joins Toowoomba-Karara Road in Cambooya and follows it to Karara.
Road condition
Toowoomba–Karara Road is fully sealed. It has no incline greater than about 4%.
History
Westbrook pastoral run was established in 1841, and Eton Vale pastoral run was established in 1840 in what is now Cambooya. Felton and Felton South were the site of an early pastoral run. Ellangowan pastoral run was established in 1842, and Leyburn was settled in the 1840s. The first roads were cut to provide access to the pastoral runs and new settlements for wheeled vehicles.
In 1877 land was resumed from many pastoral runs to establish smaller farms. These resumptions included Westbrook (), Eton Vale (), and Felton (). These resumptions soon led to closer settlement and a demand for better roads to enable the commercial success of the new farms.
Cambooya was connected by rail to Toowoomba in 1871, and quickly grew as a commercial centre. A post office had opened in 1869, and the first school opened in 1882. The development of new farms led to greater use of the road to Toowoomba.
The site for the town of Leyburn was surveyed in 1852. By 1861 the town had a post office and a police station, and the first school opened in 1862. Despite not having a railway connection the town grew quickly, with a hotel built in 1863, a court house in 1866 and a church in 1871. This placed great reliance on a road connection to Toowoomba. As settlement spread south from Leyburn it was inevitable that a road connection to the Cunningham Highway was established.

Rudolf Andreas Zippel (; 1813–1894) was a Lutheran priest from East Prussia. He is best remembered as the editor of the first "true" Lithuanian periodical Lietuvininkų prietelis published in 1849.
Biography
Zippel was born on 30 November 1813 to a family of Lutheran priest in Kallningken (now ). After graduating from the in 1833, he enrolled into the University of Königsberg where, among other things, he studied the Lithuanian language in a seminar led by Ludwig Rhesa. After completing his theology studies, he was ordained as a priest on 16 May 1841.
Zippel was first assigned as adjunct priest to Deutsch Crottingen (Kretingalė). He married in February 1845, but their only daughter died at just nine months in September 1847. In 1846–1849, Zippel worked as the second priest of the Lithuanian parish in Memel (Klaipėda). During the German revolutions of 1848–1849, many activists published various political proclamations. On 5 April 1849, Zippel published the first issue of his Lithuanian-language weekly newspaper Lietuvininkų prietelis. It was a political newspaper which reported on European news. Its circulation was probably less than 200 copies. Zippel supported the revolutions and the new Constitution of Prussia which guaranteed some freedoms. The newspaper ceased publication in December 1849 when Zippel was assigned to Darkehmen (Ozyorsk) much further south where there were very few Lithuanian-speaking residents. Lithuanian researchers believe that the reassignment was politically motivated to force the newspaper to close.
He collected words and other lexicographical data for the Lithuanian dictionaries by linguists Georg Heinrich Ferdinand Nesselmann (published in 1850) and Friedrich Kurschat (published in 1870, 1874, and 1883). He also assisted Karl Leopold Friedrich Neiss with the preparation of a collection of religious sermons published in 1856. Zippel was promoted to superintendent in 1861.
Zippel worked as a priest in Darkehmen until 1868 when he retired from priestly duties due to a throat ailment. He then returned to present-day Lithuania and lived in Gropischken (), Prökuls (Priekulė), and Drucken (). He died in Drucken on 19 February 1894. He was buried near the Lutheran church of Prökuls which was destroyed by the Soviet authorities after World War II. Therefore, Zippel's grave has not survived.

Lucie is a Norwegian drama film from 1979 directed by Jan Erik Düring. It stars Inger Lise Rypdal, Gösta Ekman, Kari Simonsen, and Nils Sletta. The film is based on Amalie Skram's novel Lucie, which dealt with the conditions and limitations of women at the end of the 19th century in Norway.
Plot
In the second half of the 19th century, Kristiania (now Oslo) offered a varied entertainment life. There were a number of variety theaters, and the city also had its own brothel district. Prostitution was legal, and it was considered justified for a woman to obtain financial and other benefits from her body and physical advantages.
The beautiful variety theater actress Lucie (played by Inger Lise Rypdal) is certainly aware of this fact. She has made the acquaintance of the lawyer Gerner (Gösta Ekman), a fine and educated gentleman in the city. This all develops into an erotic relationship, and Lucie knows how to play on Gerner's jealousy and masculine pride. She eventually manages to marry into good society, but it proves difficult to be accepted without the right class background. Her life does not turn out as she expected and, after a pregnancy in which the relationship with her husband is constantly deteriorating, she dies in childbirth.
Reception
The film received a mixed reception from both Aftenposten's and Dagbladet's reviewers. Aftenposten's Øyvind Thorsen wrote, among other things: "It is my opinion that the first half of the film is very stagnant; sometimes one gets a little depressed by boredom as well," but he concluded by writing: "A film to be depressed by, but fortunately first and foremost because of its tragic content." Dagbladet's Thor Ellingsen also expressed mixed enthusiasm and wrote, among other things: "I find Lucie significantly better than what advance statements have wanted it to be. In fact, I had thought it was much worse." But he also suggests that Rypdal's performance pulls the film down: "Rypdal's remarks often seem flat and 'modern' in an illusion-breaking way."

Paresky Commons (colloquially known as "Commons") is Phillips Academy's main dining facility. Designed by architect Charles Platt and constructed by Thompson Starrett, Commons was built in the 1920s Colonial Revival style. Located in Flagstaff Quadrangle (designed by the Olmsted brothers), it is the social hub of Andover. Today, Commons aims to serve healthy food from diverse backgrounds while still accounting for dietary needs and sustainability.
History
In 1928, Thomas Cochran donated $300,000 on the condition that the trustees could raise another $300,000. Once opened, the academy instituted the policy where each grade level would have a special room for themselves. The remnants of this policy still last today as 9th and 10th graders typically sit upstairs ("upper") while 11th and 12th graders sit on the base level ("lower").
The dining facility has undergone four major renovations in recent history. First, in 1970 a $125,000 renovation separated the dishwashing and food serving, installed of conveyor belts to pick up dirty dishes and cups, and reorganized the serving lines. Then, in 1980 a renovation for a bit under $2 million added a student center and snack bar in the basement. Recently, a 2007 renovation, cost $30 million which renovated bathrooms, updated color schemes, improved air quality, serving areas and lighting. After this renovation, the building was renamed in honor of David Paresky ’56 whose $10 million donation helped to finance to renovation. In 2011, Commons earned LEED Silver certification after installing energy saving technologies.

Gertrude Hart (1873 – 28 January 1965) was an Australian children's novelist, short story writer and poet. With Bernard Cronin, she founded the Old Derelicts' Club in 1920 which later became the Society of Australian Authors.
Biography
Ethel Gertrude Hart was born in 1873 in Williamstown, Victoria and grew up in Stawell. She was educated at Hohenloe College, a private girls' school in Warrnambool.
Her first book, Wanted – A Servant: An Australian Story, was published in England in 1890. Her poetry appeared in the Melbourne press from 1911 through to the 1950s when she wrote "Australia Speaks Its Love", celebrating the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II and the royal visit to Australia in 1954.
On the day she received the first copy of her 1912 romance novel, The Dream Girl, she walked for the first time in seven years, following successful surgery. Doubleday Doran & Co. bought the rights to publish it in the United States.
A reviewer of The Laughter Lady suggested that it may be better enjoyed by 50-year-olds than children and that it had "wide appeal". Chubby was published by The Australasian in serial form in 1928.
In 1920 she and Bernard Cronin founded the Old Derelicts' Club, a group for "struggling" writers and artists. In 1927 it became the Society of Australian Authors, with Cronin as president and Louis Lavater and Hart vice-presidents. Its aim was to raise the profile of Australian authors across Australia and also to welcome visiting writers. Cronin thought that the society became too political and it ceased to operate in 1936.
Hart was one of the first 14 women to join the Victorian branch of the PEN Club (now PEN International) in the 1930s, a condition of membership being publication of one or more books.
Hart spent her final years at Ferny Creek and died at Olinda on 28 January 1965.

Leave It to Larry is an American television situation comedy that was broadcast on CBS from October 14, 1952, until December 23, 1952, for a total of 11 episodes.
Premise
Larry Tucker (portrayed by Eddie Albert in his first TV series) was a married man who, with his wife and two children, lived in a two-family house with his father-in-law, Mr. Koppel (portrayed by Ed Begley). Tucker also was "a bumbling shoe salesman" in Koppel's shoe store. That combination often put Tucker in the middle of conflicts.
Cast
At the time of its premiere (classified by one source as a pilot), the show was titled Leave It to Lester, but "almost immediately" the title was changed to Leave It to Larry. Other changes occurred in the cast, with only Albert and Begley continuing. The title character's name went from Lester Tucker to Larry Tucker. Betty Kean played Tucker's wife, Amy, replacing Katherine Bard. Lydia Schaeffer portrayed the Tuckers' daughter (whose name was changed from Helen to Harriet), replacing Patsy Bruder. Glenn Walken had the role of the son, Steve, replacing Bradley Huston.
Production and rating
Leo Solomon was the producer of, and a writer for, Leave It to Larry, with Mervyn Nelson as the director. Other writers were Vinnie Bogert and Billie Friedberg. The program originated at WCBS-TV.
Leave It to Larry was broadcast on Tuesday nights from 8 to 8:30 Eastern Time. Its competition was Milton Berle's Texaco Star Theater on NBC and (beginning the week of November 22) Bishop Fulton Sheen's Life Is Worth Living on DuMont. Sheen's Trendex rating for that week was 14.6 while Berle's program dropped to 35.2 and Albert's dropped to 7.6. When Leave It to Larry was cancelled, it was replaced on CBS by the second half of Ernie Kovacs' new hour-long evening program.

Dance House Helsinki (Finnish: Tanssin talo, literally "the house of dance") is a theatre building under construction in the Ruoholahti district of Helsinki, Finland, next to the Kaapelitehdas building.
History
The first ideas of founding a theatre stage concentrating on dance date back to the 1930s, when they were expressed by Maggie Gripenberg. A possibility to convert the VR warehouses in Vallila to a dance stage was investigated in the 1990s. In 2010, the association Tanssin talo ry was founded to further the cause of artistic dance and construct the Dance House building. Planning of new premises at Kaapelitehdas started in 2016, funded by the Kone foundation, the Finnish state and the city of Helsinki. The building was planned to be completed in 2020.
Construction
The Dance House project moved forward when the state decided to take part in constructing the new building and funding the activity of the Dance House in 2015. The state funded the project by six million euro, as did the city of Helsinki. The Jane and Aatos Erkko Foundation had previously funded the project by 15 million euro.
The new theatre at Kaapelitehdas concentrating on dance is planned to open in early 2022. The Dance House will begin to build its program along with a dance theatre, a modern dance group and a production house: dance theatre Hurjaruuth, the Tero Saarinen Company and the Zodiak modern dance centre were chosen as partners of the Dance House. The number of partners is expected to grow in the future. Future partners might include established dance groups and theatres as well as festivals and production houses.
Matti Numminen was chosen as the operational director of the Dance House, but his term ended in October 2020 after he had fallen out of favour with the board of directors, which was probably influenced by controversy regarding the name of the building. The Dance House was renamed Form in May 2020, but the name received a lot of negative feedback and in July 2020 the building was renamed back to Tanssin talo. Producer Niki Matheson replaced Numminen was operative directory. Mikael Aaltonen was chosen as the program director.
The foundation of the building was laid in late January 2020. The building was jointly designed by JKMM Architects and ILO Architects. The new building with 5000 square metres of total floor space is expected to cost about 27 million euro and has been funded by the Jane and Aatos Erkko Foundation, the city of Helsinki and the Finnish state. The 1500 square metres of floor space in need of renovation at Kaapelitehdas will be funded from the budget of Kaapelitehdas, costing about 7.8 million euro.
The final cost of the construction of Dance House Helsinki was slightly over 40 million euro.
Premises
Dance House Helsinki will hold two halls, of which the larger Erkko hall will have 700 spaces and the smaller Pannuhalli already existing at Kaapelitehdas will have 250 spaces. As well as the performance halls, the building will host a restaurant and an events square, serving both as a foyer and an event space on its own.
In November to December 2020 a competition was held for an illuminated artwork at the lobby of Dance House Helsinki, depicting the architectural nature of the building as well as dance.

Saville was launched in 1777 at Bristol as a West Indiaman. She suffered two maritime incidents, one in 1784, and a second in August 1785, when she was lost at Port Maria, Jamaica.
Career
The British Admiralty gave notice in April 1777, that they were ready to issue letters of marque for privateers against the Americans. In March 1778, Great Britain broke off relations with France. James Ranton, Saville{{'}s captain, acquired a letter of marque on 18 August 1777.
Saville first appeared in Lloyd's Register (LR) in 1778.
In November 1778, Saville, in company with , took a Swedish vessel that had been on her way from Venice to Bordeaux. They sent the prize into Kingroad.
On her next cruise, early in 1779, Saville was in company with the Liverpool privateer Bess, which was under the command of Captain Perry. They captured Proteus, a snow from Philadelphia, and sent her into Milford. Proteuss cargo consisted of 281 hogsheads of flax seeds, 166 hogsheads of tobacco, 52 casks of pot-ashes, 15,000 staves, and 140 beaver sins.
In February 1780 Lloyd's List reported that Saville, Ranton, master, had been in company with St George, Matthews, master, and had been four days on their way to Nevis when they ran into a gale. St George had to put into Milford. She had five feet of water in her hold and 30 mules that she was carrying had drowned. Saville continued on her way.
In April 1784 Saville, Nichols, master, was returning to Bristol from Charleston when she grounded on the spit near Welch Hook, in the Bristol Channel. She was refloated on 15 April without damage and taken in to Bristol.
Fate
In October 1785 Savile, Niccol, master, was reported lost at Port Maria, Jamaica. She was among a number of vessels lost in a hurricane there on 26 August 1785.
