The 2021 CAA Men's Soccer Tournament was the postseason men's soccer tournament for the Colonial Athletic Association held from November 11 through November 14, 2021. The tournament was held at Hofstra Soccer Stadium in Hempstead, NY. The four-team single-elimination tournament consisted of two rounds based on seeding from regular season conference play. The defending champions were the James Madison Dukes. They were unable to defend their crown as they were under a post season ban from the CAA. The Hofstra Pride won the tournament by defeating Elon 3–2 in the final. The conference tournament title was the fifth overall for the Hofstra men's soccer program all of which have come under head coach Richard Nuttall. As tournament champions, Hofstra earned the CAA's automatic berth into the 2021 NCAA Division I Men's Soccer Tournament.
Seeding
The top four teams in the regular season earned a spot in the tournament. Teams were seeded based on regular season conference record and tiebreakers were used to determine seedings of teams that finished with the same record. James Madison Dukes finished third in the regular season standings but could not participate due to a postseason ban handed down by the CAA. A tiebreaker was required to determine who would make the tournament as Drexel and UNC Wilmington finished tied on 13 points with 4–3–1 records. Drexel defeated UNC Wilmington on September 11, 2–0 and earned the final tournament spot.

Simone Natalie Vigod is a Canadian scientist and psychiatrist-in-chief at Women's College Hospital in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. She focuses her research on perinatal mood disorders and has conducted some of the largest studies worldwide on maternal mental illness around the time of pregnancy.
Education and training
Vigod graduated from McGill University in 1999 with her Honours Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology. She then earned her medical degree from the University of Toronto, where she completed her psychiatric residency in 2009, and an MSc in Clinical Epidemiology in 2011.
Career
Following her residency in psychiatry, Vigod joined Women's College Hospital to continue her research on reproductive health.
In 2014, Vigod became the program lead for Women's College Hospital's Reproductive Life Stages (RLS) program. The aim of the program was to provide care to women with mental health issues across their reproductive life cycle. Under her leadership, the team created and evaluated Mother Matters, an online therapist-facilitated support group for women across Ontario with postpartum mental health issues.
At the same time, she was also appointed the Shirley A. Brown Memorial Chair in Women’s Mental Health Research for a term of five years. In this role, Vigod collaborated with an international team of women’s mental health researchers to develop a primer on PPDs. In November 2018, Vigod was appointed the chief of psychiatry at Women’s College Hospital.
While serving in these leadership roles, Vigod developed an online patient decision aid to help women make choices about antidepressant use in pregnancy. In 2020, Vigod studied mental health support for mothers during the COVID-19 pandemic by looking at demographic data and mental health visits for more than 137,000 people in Ontario. Following this, she was named the winner of The Royal-Mach-Gaensslen Prize for Mental Health Research as an outstanding mental health researcher enabling future exploration and discovery.
She appears regularly in the media on maternal and pregnancy issues.

Pteroptyx is a genus of fireflies in the subfamily Luciolinae found in Southeast Asia. It has long been noted for the ability to perform synchronous flashing, though not all species synchronize. These synchronizing species have been found on so-called 'firefly trees' and created a growing firefly watching tour industry in some regions. Species of the genus have been identified in Malaysia, Thailand, the Philippines, and Hong Kong.
Identification
The genus Pteroptyx was first proposed by Ernest Olivier in 1902 for Luciola-like species. He identified two species, Luciola malaccae and Luciola testacea, which were later reassigned to the Pteroptyx genus. Three subsequent species, P. tener, P. bearni, and P. valida were described by Olivier between 1907 and 1909. Much of the work revising the genera within Luciolinae has been done by Australian entomologist Lesley Ballantyne, beginning in 1970.
The genus was originally defined based on characteristics of adult males: deflexed elytral apex, trisinuate ventrite 7, and a metafemoral comb. However some of the recently assigned species do not have either the deflexed elytral apex or the metafemoral comb. Developments in molecular sequencing techniques have improved the ability of entomologists to identify and delineate new species based on only female or larval specimens that were not collected in association with males. Jusoh et al. (2014) used these techniques to propose a new species, P. balingiana, as distinct from P. malaccae, but it has not been widely accepted.
Ecology
The males of two species, P. malaccae and P. tener, are often found in large groups on certain trees and perform synchronized flashing displays to attract females for mating. The first report of these synchronous displays was recorded in Thailand over a century ago, although the number of fireflies have decreased, likely due to the reduction of the necessary mangrove forests due to urbanization and shrimp farming in Thailand. Pollution and habitat loss have resulted in the loss of nearly all Pteroptyx populations from the area around Bangkok.
Many of the species examined by Jusoh et al. in 2018 using genetic sequencing of the mitochondrial DNA were associated with mangroves, as their larva need a continuously damp environment to develop. As a result, many of the species in the genus are at risk of habitat loss due to damage of mangroves as a result of rising sea levels from climate change.
Species
As described by Ballantyne & Lambkin in 2015, there are 17 known species in Pteroptyx.

The Arem is a small, unreached, and endangered Vietic ethnic group of Vietnam and Lao PDR, native people of the mountains of Central Vietnamese province of Quảng Bình and neighboring Khammouan province of Laos. Their alternate autonyms are Umo, Chmbrau or Chmrau. In Vietnam, they are considered a sub-ethnic group of the Chứt.
Prior to 1956, the Arem were truly nomadic hunters and gatherers. In the past they preferred to move around deep within the forests-mountains, dwelling in caves, trees, or temporary shacks, whole life depended on hunting, foraging, fishing. They and the Rục were the last Chuet groups to start building sedentary houses in the 1960s. Nowadays, a group of 156 Arem is living in a humble village, coded name No.39, locates in Tân Trạch, Bố Trạch District, Quảng Bình province, a village that is dominantly Bru Ma Coong who outnumber the Arem, and thus Ma Coong is used by the Arem at the village as daily lingua franca communicating language. Another, yet to be confirmed 250 Arem, are dwelling in the Laotian side of the Annamite mountains.
Estimated that the current Arem population is 800 people. According to Vietnamese government report, the population of Arem is falling drastically, and many are heading back to original nomadic lifestyle. Today, among several hundred Arem, only 20 (Babaev-Samarina 2018) to 100 (UNESCO 2011) of them could still speak their own Arem language, which still is poorly understood researched, mostly spoken by elderly. The Arem are not willing to share their language and are tended to speak other groups' languages. Arem is one of the world's critically endangered language at risk of inevitable extinction.

The School for Good Mothers is a 2022 debut novel by American writer Jessamine Chan. The novel concerns a woman, Frida, who is sentenced to a period at an experimental facility intended to rehabilitate mothers accused of even minor parenting infractions.
Writing and composition
Chan began writing the novel in 2014. Chan was inspired to write about motherhood and parenting due to her anxiety over whether or not to have a child. Two articles published in The New Yorker, one by Rachel Aviv concerning a mother's experience with family courts, and a second by Margaret Talbot about an effort in Providence to close the "word gap", both informed Chan as she wrote the story. The novel includes a large cast of characters, and Chan found creating unique, full-fledged personalities for the mothers at the titular facility "quite challenging". Chan set portions of the novel in Philadelphia, where she lived before moving to Chicago during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Critical reception
In a positive review for The New York Times Book Review, Molly Young wrote that the novel "recalls" works by Kazuo Ishiguro and Philip K. Dick, qualifying that nonetheless "[...] Chan’s novel is too original to come off as a purée of influences."
The School for Good Mothers has received comparisons, due to its subject matter and thematic content, to the novel The Handmaid's Tale by Canadian author Margaret Atwood. Chan has said the comparisons are "thrilling beyond [her] wildest dreams".
Adaptation
Through her production company, Freckle Films, actress and producer Jessica Chastain purchased the rights to adapt the novel as a television series.

The Common Street Cemetery is the second oldest documented cemetery in Watertown, Massachusetts. Located at the junction of Common and Mount Auburn Streets in central Watertown, it was founded in 1754. It is the site of Watertown's second meeting house, where major planning and resistance activities took place in the early days of the American Revolutionary War. The cemetery was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2022.
Description and history
Watertown's Common Street Cemetery occupies of relatively flat terrain at the northwest corner of Common and Mount Auburn Streets, just northeast of Watertown Square. It is a roughly triangular parcel, its rear property lines abutting the Watertown High School and a residential area. A paved road provides circulation access within the cemetery, in which graves are lined up in neat rows separated by grass. There are estimated to be more than 500 burials.
When Watertown was founded by English colonists in 1630, its first town center was located near Gerry's Landing on the Charles River. This town center included a small burying ground, which does not appear to have survived. The town center eventually migrated to the junction of Arlington and Mount Auburn Streets, with the meeting house north of Mount Auburn Street and what is now the Old Burying Ground to the south. About 1750 the town center moved again, to its present location at Watertown Square, at which time the Common Street Cemetery was established. The cemetery was originally smaller, and part of a larger town-owned area used as common pasturage and the site of the town's second meeting house. During the American Revolutionary War, the meeting house was the site of significant planning and strategy meetings during the Siege of Boston. The site of meeting house was eventually added to the cemetery, as was part of the pastureland.

Allison Britt Sekuler is an American neuroscientist. In 2019, she was named one of Canada's Top 100 Most Powerful Women.
Early life
Sekuler was born to parents Robert W. Sekuler and Susan N. Sekuler in Brookline, Massachusetts. Her father was the provost and the dean of the faculty at Brandeis University while her mother was a lawyer. She completed her Bachelor of Arts at Pomona College and her PhD at University of California, Berkeley.
Career
Following her PhD, Sekuler began teaching at the University of Toronto's (U of T) Department of Psychology with her husband. While there, she also served as president and a board member of the Royal Canadian Institute. The couple remained at U of T for a decade before accepting a Canada Research Chair position at McMaster University in July 2001. Upon joining the faculty, Sekuler also established a laboratory of eye trackers and scanning machines to continue her research into face and object recognition.
As a Canada Research Chair in Cognitive Neuroscience, Sekuler focused on how the human brain processes visual information, and how that processing changes as a function of aging. She also focused on face perception, motion perception, object recognition, perceptual organization, visual attention, perceptual learning, and pattern vision. As such, Sekuler was recognized as a Canadian "Leader of Tomorrow" in 2004 by the Partnership Group for Science and Engineering and Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council. Following this, Sekuler discovered that the aging process improves their ability to grasp big picture concepts through the use of computer-generated stimuli. She later received the Hamilton Spectator Publisher's Award for Educators in recognition of her "devotion and efforts toward increasing public science outreach."
In 2017, Sekuler left McMaster after being named the next Vice-president Research and Sandra A. Rotman Chair at Baycrest Health Sciences in Toronto. In this role, she was also appointed the managing director of the Centre for Aging + Brain Health Innovation. In 2019, Sekuler was recognized by the Women's Executive Network as one of Canada's Most Powerful Women in the Science and Technology category.
Personal life
Sekuler and her husband Patrick Bennett have two sons together.

John Udny (21 March 1727 – 1800) was a Scottish diplomat who served as British Consul at Venice and Leghorn.
Early life
Udny was born into Clan Udny on 21 March 1727 in Aberdeen, Scotland. He was the son of James Udny, advocate, and Jane ( Walker) Udny. He was a brother of Robert Fullerton Udny of Udny, Dudwick and Newburgh.
His maternal grandfather was Alexander Walker, Lord Provost of Aberdeen.
Career
He went to Italy and became engaged in business in Venice, where he lived. In 1761, he was appointed British Consul at Venice, holding the office until 1777 when he was appointed Consul at Leghorn. He held that role until his death in 1800.
"During his residence at Venice and Leghorn, he was in the practice of buying Italian works of art and sending them home for sale. He also supplied His Britannic Majesty's ships with fresh provisions when they touched at Leghorn, which was a perquisite of the consulship, and he seemed, further, in partnership with some other parties at Leghorn, to have entered into contracts for victualling the Mediterranean fleet." He also acted as intermediary for Henry Farnum, a Philadelphia collector, and the British sculptor John Gibson.
Personal life
In August 1777, Udny married Selina Shore Cleveland, a daughter of John Clevland MP and Secretary to the Admiralty and, his third wife, Sarah Shuckburgh (the daughter of Charles Shuckburgh and a sister of Sir Charles Shuckburgh, 5th Baronet). Together, they were the parents of two children, both born at Leghorn:
Julia Udny (b. ), who married William Richard Hamilton, the son of Rev. Anthony Hamilton, Archdeacon of Colchester and the former Anne Terrick (daughter of Richard Terrick, Bishop of London), in 1804; Hamilton later served as British Minister to the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies in the 1820s.
John Robert Fullerton Udny (1779–1861), who married Emily Fitzhugh (–1846), daughter of Thomas Fitzhugh of Plus Power, in 1812. After her death he married Ann Allat, daughter of David Allat.
In 1784, Selina and their children went to London with their children. In 1794 his elder brother became proprietor of the estates of Udny. As he had no sons, John became the heir next entitled to succeed. During his later years, John "carried out considerable correspondnece with his brother, and purchased parts of a property contiguous to the Udny estates."
Udny died in 1800. His son John inherited his estate and the estates of his uncle Robert Fullerton Udny in 1802 which, upon his death in 1861, passed, after a legal battle with his extended cousin George Udny, to John Henry Udny, his second son from his marriage to Ann Allat. The younger Udny had attended Eton in 1868.
Descendants
Through his daughter Julia, he was a grandfather of geologist William John Hamilton (1805–1867); Alexander Edmund Hamilton (1806–1827); Capt. Henry George Hamilton (1808–1879); Charles Anthony Hamilton (1809–1860); Arthur Richard Hamilton (1814–1882); and Gen. Frederick William Hamilton (1815–1890).

Kelly A. Metcalfe is a Canadian scientist. She is a professor at the University of Toronto and at Women's College Hospital.
Early life and education
Growing up in Ontario, Metcalfe graduated from St. Joseph's Catholic High School in 1990. Upon graduating, she earned her nursing degree at the University of Western Ontario (UWO). While completing her undergraduate degree, Metcalfe became interested in cancer research after the discovery of the BRCA1 (BReast CAncer one) and BRCA2 genes. As such, she accepted a research nurse position at Women's College Hospital (WCH) where she became one of the first nurses to study the impact of genetic predispositions to cancer. While researching at WCH, she also completed her PhD in medical science at the University of Toronto.
Career
Upon earning her PhD, Metcalfe returned to WCH and accepted a faculty position at U of T. In these roles, she continued to focus her research on understanding the clinical and psychosocial implications of genetic testing for BRCA mutations in women, men, and their families. In 2004, she led a research team in surveying half of 120 women in Ontario who had preventive double mastectomies between 1991 and 2000. Between 2007 and 2011, Metcalfe received funding to help researchers understand the differences in uptake of cancer prevention options in Canadian women with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation. Through this, Metcalfe became the first to investigate the predictors of contralateral breast cancer in women with a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations. As such, she received another grant in 2012 while working as U of T's Bloomberg Nursing interim director of research to develop and test a decision support tool for post-mastectomy breast reconstruction.
At the same time, Metcalfe was appointed the Lawrence S. Bloomberg Faculty of Nursing Limited-Term Professor in Cancer Genetics and became an Adjunct Scientist at the Familial Breast Cancer Research Institute at the Women’s College Research Institute. In these roles, she continued to focus on the prevention and treatment of breast and ovarian cancers in high-risk women by collaborating with the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation and the Canadian Institutes of Health Research. Through these partnerships, she aimed to interview 1200 women with young-onset breast cancer to evaluate the contributions of 25 known breast cancer-causing genes in that population. Metcalfe was subsequently elected an International Fellow of the American Academy of Nursing in 2016. Following her election, Metcalfe was recognized locally with an election to the Royal Society of Canada’s College of New Scholars, Artists and Scientists and was named a Fellow of Canadian Academy of Health Sciences. She also received U of T's Rising Star Alumni Award. That same year, Metcalfe received another grant to fund her study, Breast cancer treatment in women with PALB2 mutations.
In 2018, Metcalfe was appointed Acting Associate Dean, Research & External Affairs for a one year term while Linda McGillis Hall was on administrative leave. Following her one year term, Metcalfe became the co-Principal investigator on a project entitled "Outcomes Associated with Direct Rapid Genetic Testing at Time of Breast Cancer Diagnosis." Her integral role in "investigating the clinical and psychosocial implications of genetic testing for BRCA mutations in women and men" subsequently earned her the Wendy Lack Women of Action Scientific Award. She was also listed among the top 25 nurse researchers in Canada.

Municipal flag
For the use by the municipalities, a flag with the same colors and proportions as the national flag was adopted, which instead of a shield bears a set of white stars that are placed in a circular pattern on the blue stripe. The number of white stars correspond to the number of provinces in Ecuador. However, this flag is similar to the flag of Venezuela from 1905 to 1930, which contained in its blue stripe a total of 7 stars placed in a circle.

Edelman Fossil Park, located in Mantua Township, New Jersey, consists of a 66-million-year-old bone bed set into a former marl quarry. It is currently the only facility east of the Mississippi River that has an active open quarry for public Community Dig Days. Formed at the end of the Cretaceous Period during the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction event, this rich fossil deposit is abundant in marine life which is indicative of the shallow sea that once covered the area that would become Southern New Jersey. , the fossil park is undergoing renovations to become the site of the Edelman Fossil Park Museum but will continue to be available for school, scout, camp, and public programs once construction is complete. It is currently closed to the public and will reopen after the completion of the museum in May of 2023. The Edelman Fossil Park is owned and operated by Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey thanks in part to a $25 million donation from Jean and Ric Edelman.
Geology
The bedrock of Gloucester County, where Edelman Fossil Park is located, is composed of alternating layers of sand, silt, and clay due to fluctuating sea levels since the Cretaceous. These sedimentary sequences are known as facies. Sedimentary rocks of this area have been dated from between the Lower Cretaceous to the Miocene (145 to 5.3 mya). The entire area of Southern New Jersey is known as the coastal plain. It was submerged under a shallow sea until the late Pliocene when the ocean receded as the Greenland ice sheet formed 3 million years ago. The Coastal Plain begins on a southeast diagonal between Carteret and Trenton with sediments overlapping the rockier Piedmont Formation to the northwest.
The specific layer in which the fossils are located is known as marl - a dark to light green, manganese-rich, clay that forms when algae, aquatic plants, and aquatic animals decay over a long period in hard-water streams rich in calcium carbonate. This layer is typically located in swamps, resulting in a covering of a dark organic-rich layer of peat. Because of marl's formation as the result of decaying plants and algae in soft sediment, it is a great harborer of fossils including numerous invertebrates as well as larger land-dwelling animals whose bodies were swept downstream and laid here to rest.
Within marl sediments is the mineral vivianite (Fe2+3(PO4)2 · 8H2O) that forms as a result of reduction-oxidation reactions. This deep blue to bluish-green crystal begins to oxidize in the presence of oxygen, converting Fe2+ to Fe3+ until the blue color becomes almost black and opaque. Because of this inevitable darkening, there is no such thing as stable vivianite. Embedded into these layers are also schist dropstones, indicative of the ancient glaciations that occurred in this area during glacial periods.

Future plans
Gateway to the Cretaceous
Key stakeholders at the Edelman Fossil Park at Rowan University broke ground on a $73 million new endeavor on October 9, 2021 - The Edelman Fossil Park Museum. Construction of the museum is currently underway, and is scheduled to open in May 2023. Visitors to the museum will be transported to the moments surrounding earth's fifth mass extinction: the moments that led to a mass die-off when non-avian dinosaurs and 75% of all other species went extinct.
Guests will be immersed into the world of the Late Cretaceous as it looked in coastal New Jersey alongside both land-dwelling and aquatic creatures fighting for survival. The 44,000 square foot museum will feature interactives and hands-on learning stations, exploration zones, and a paleo-themed playground that are perfect for families. Elsewhere, the Hall of Extinction & Hope will help visitors understand what led to the dinosaurs' demise as well as what we can learn and do about our current climate and biodiversity crises. To provide guests with an even more hands-on learning experience, a Fossil Research Workshop, virtual reality chamber, and of course the fossil dig experience will be available. The Café will feature sustainable food options, and the museum's gift shop will offer items from local artisans.
Sustainability
The Edelman Fossil Park Museum will be New Jersey's largest public net-zero facility, with 100% of its energy coming from a combination of green energy available in New Jersey's power grid and renewable energy produced on-site. The museum will feature geothermal water-source heat pump heating and cooling systems, a photovoltaic solar field, and the repurposing of on-site materials for interior construction and design. No fossil fuels will be combusted for museum operations and no greenhouse gasses will be released into the atmosphere. The surrounding grounds will utilize native plantings, and plant and animal habitats and other key landscape features will be restored as part of the design footprint.

Love at First Sight is a studio album by American singer Dionne Warwick released in 1977 by Warner Bros. Records.
Overview
The album was produced by Michael Omartian and Steve Barri. The sound of the longplay resembled the previous works of the artist of the Scepter Records period. By the way, there is a ballad on the album "Early Morning Strangers", the author of which was Hal David, with whom Warwick worked for a long time and fruitfully in those years.
Anyway, the album became a failure, neither it nor the singles hit the charts, critics also took the record with restraint. This was Warwick's last album with Warner Bros., the next album she will release on Arista Records.

The Vermilion County bombings were a series of three bombings in the towns of Danville and Oakville killing at least two people and injuring 34. The bombings were committed by Richard White.
First Bombing
On 30 December 1997, Richard White placed a pipe bomb triggered by a motion sensor inside a cooler outside United Methodist Church in Oakwood, Illinois. Brian Plawer left the church and noticed the cooler, while attempting to move it the motion sensor activated causing the pipe bomb to detonate killing 46-year old Brian Plawer instantly. The bombing was heard throughout the town and caused minor damage to the United Methodist Church.
Second Bombing
On 24 May 1998, Richard white went to First Assembly of God Church in Danville Illinois. There he went to the west side of the church and placed a pipe bomb on top of an air conditioning and heating unit next to an exterior support pillar. In the church, over 300 people were attending mass when the bomb detonated near the youth section. The explosion blew a 10 foot by 15-foot hole in the west side of the church. Because the bomb was placed on the air conditioning unit and the way the bomb was built most of the fragments from the bomb flew over the congregation. No one was killed in the bombing however 34 people were injured.
Investigation
After the first bombing both the ATF and the FBI got involved but were unable to find anything linking the bombing to an individual. After the second bombing, the ATF and FBI found that both bombs had a blue-insulated, silver-coated, single-strand wire in common. While the forensics teams were investigating the bomb's components, investigators were asking witnesses and members of the church about info that could lead to an arrest. Eventually, they came upon Richard Dean White was a person of interest as he was a member of the church but not a suspect.
Third Bombing
On 30 May 1998, The ATF went to interview Richard white at his property but he wasn't there. A family member that was living at the premises said he was living with his mother and called ahead. Before the ATF could reach his house Richard white went into a garage on his property with his german shepherd dog. At 4:44 PM he detonated a pipe bomb on himself, killing both himself and his dog instantly and damaging the garage. When the FBI when into the garage they found an unexploded bomb and the corpse of Army veteran Richard Dean White with his dog.
Motive
There are several possible motives as to why Richard Dean White committed the bombings. Richard White had mental problems and spent time in the mental wards of multiple veterans’ hospitals over the course of several years. Another possible reason or motive stems from his younger brother Randy Shotts who was injured in a swimming accident in 1986 that left him paralyzed. Multiple of the doctors who treated Randy Shotts attended the two churches, Richard White is said to have had resentment at the way the doctors treated his brother.
In popular culture
On 14 August 2009, the Forensic Files TV show aired an episode titled "Holy Terror" which overviewed the bombings.

Is There Really a Mind? is a 2022 limited-edition fundraiser album by American experimental rock band Swans. The album was released in February 2022 on band leader Michael Gira's Young God Records. Limited to 2,500 copies, Is There Really a Mind? serves as a fundraiser for the forthcoming sixteenth Swans album, which is slated for recording in April 2022 and release in early 2023.
Background
After the tour for Swans' 2019 album Leaving Meaning was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Gira decided to refocus on creating a new album, which resulted in the ten songs found on Is There Really a Mind? In the liner notes of this release, Gira describes these recordings as "rough, preliminary versions (of most) of the songs that will appear on the upcoming Swans album. These recordings are intended for your ears only as a gesture of appreciation for your support of the music, and as a way to raise funds to make the recording and production of the album as nuanced and fully realized as possible."
Track listing
Notes
"No More of This" is not listed on the liner notes
When originally announced, the demo sessions also included tracks titled "My Phantom Limb (Revised)" and "You Will Pay", the latter of which was also planned for Swans' previous 2019 fundraiser album, What Is This?

Neda Maghbouleh is an American-born Canadian sociologist, scholar, writer, author, and educator. She is the Canada Research Chair in Migration, Race, and Identity and associate professor of Sociology at the University of Toronto Mississauga.
Biography
Neda Maghbouleh was born in New York City, and raised in Portland, Oregon. She attended Smith College (B.A. 2004); University of California, Santa Barbara (M.A. 2008 and PhD 2012). She moved to Canada with her family in 2013 for work.
Her book The Limits of Whiteness: Iranian Americans and the Everyday Politics of Race (2017; Stanford University Press) looked at historical and legal evidence, as well as the sociological structures of how Iranian Americans have moved between the categorization of white and "not white" in race. It is about the people of all MENA communities, but it specifically centers around Iranians. The Limits of Whiteness also discusses the "Aryan narrative" used to describe Iranians by both the people in Iran and by the diaspora, and the formation of biases. When the book was first published many older Iranian Americans did not understand or agree with the book, but after Executive Order 13769 (also known more commonly as "Trump travel ban") in early 2017 many felt a more complicated relationship to race due to new legal challenges and restrictions.
She has been recognized as an authority on the racialization of migrants from the Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) region, and has written for CBC Radio, Newsweek, NPR's Code Switch, Salon.com, Vice, and Vox Media. In 2021–2022, she was honored as a Wall Scholar by the Peter Wall Institute for Advanced Studies.

Enyzme-modified cheese (EMC) is a concentrated cheese flavour ingredient that is produced from cheese or cheese curd by treatment with enzymes such as proteases, lipases and esterases.
EMCs are used in paste or dry form, and are added to foods at dosages of around 1-2% or up to 5% to provide a cheesy flavour. They are usually 10-30 times as intense in flavour as natural cheeses, but have a different taste profile from the original cheese. The enzyme treatment can improve the performance of processed cheese processes.
In the European Union, EMC is considered a flavouring preparation when used without other flavourings. In the United States, EMCs have Generally recognized as safe status.

Doctrine
The PCC subscribes to the Westminster Confession of Faith, Westminster Larger Catechism and Westminster Shorter Catechism.
Interchurch Relations
The denomination has strong relationships with the Presbyterian Church in Singapore.

In metamorphic geology, a compatibility diagram shows how the mineral assemblage of a metamorphic rock in thermodynamic equilibrium varies with composition at a fixed temperature and pressure. Compatibility diagrams provide an excellent way to analyze how variations in the rock's composition affect the mineral paragenesis that develops in a rock at particular pressure and temperature conditions. Because of the difficulty of depicting more than three components (as a ternary diagram), usually only the three most important components are plotted, though occasionally a compatibility diagram for four components is plotted as a projected tetrahedron.
Construction
A three-component compatibility diagram will depict the stable phase of each pure component as the point at each corner of a ternary diagram. Additional points in the diagram represent other pure phases, and lines connecting pairs of these points represent compositions at which the two phases are the only phases present. These lines generally divide the diagram into subtriangles since, in accordance with Gibb's phase rule, a system of three components will contain three phases except at the degenerate compositions represented by the points and lines. The composition within each subtriangle will be a mixture of the pure phases found at the corners of the subtriangle. These are the compatible phases for the composition at the temperature and pressure (and, sometimes, degree of water saturation) for which the diagram is prepared.
Common types
Certain choices of components have proven particularly useful in metamorphic petrology.
ACF diagram
An ACF diagram is particularly suitable for describing basaltic metamorphic rocks. Its components are:
A = - ( + )
C =
F =
That is, the components are various combinations of the mol% of important metal oxides in the rock. If the rock is assumed to be saturated with quartz and carbon dioxide (though not depicted in the diagram), then at elevated temperature (granulite facies), the corner phases are calcite, sillimanite, and orthopyroxene. The side of the diagram between calcite and sillimanite has a point added for anorthite (calcium feldspar), corresponding to an equal mixture (by mole percentage) of the two components. This forms pure anorthite. Likewise, points are added for clinopyroxene and garnet and the diagram is divided into subtriangles, as depicted in the accompanying diagram.
AKF diagram
The AKF diagram is intended for rocks containing excess aluminium and silica. Its components are:
A = - ( + + )
K =
F = + +
This diagram is less useful, because magnesium does not freely substitute for ferrous iron in many metamorphic minerals important in aluminium-rich rock. These are better regarded as separate components, producing a tetrahedral compatibility diagram.

Manlio Scopigno (20 November 1925 – 25 September 1993) was an Italian professional football player and coach. Known as "il Filosofo" (the Philosopher), he is best known for coaching Cagliari to win their only Serie A title in 1970.
Playing career
Born in Paularo, in the province of Udine, he moved to Rieti at a young age. He began playing as a right-back for Rieti between the Serie C and Serie B.
He moved to Salernitana, with whom he played in the Serie B; in the 1948–49 season, Scopigno played as a goalkeeper against Lecce due to 's injury; he conceded four goals.
In 1951, he joined Napoli. After scoring his first Serie A goal against Como, Scopigno suffered a knee injury in 1951; this ultimately ended his career, as he only played a few more games for Napoli and Catanzaro.
Managerial career
After having coached Rieti, and Ortona, Scopigno was appointed assistant coach of Vicenza in 1959. He became head coach in 1961, remaining in charge until 1965.
Scopigno had a short experience with Bologna in the 1965–66 Serie A, before being appointed head coach of newly-promoted side Cagliari in 1966. In 1967, Cagliari participated in the United Soccer Association as the "Chicago Mustangs"; Scopigno led his side to a third-place finish. He helped Cagliari win their first Serie A title in the 1969–70 season. Scopigno left in 1972.
Scopigno ended his coaching career having also taken charge of Roma in 1973 and Vicenza between 1974 and 1976.

The finescaled four-eyed fish (Anableps microlepis) is a species of four-eyed fish found in coastal waters of the Atlantic Ocean from Trinidad and Tobago down to southeastern Brazil. They mostly inhabit brackish environments such as estuaries, mangrove swamps, and tidal mudflats. It grows to approximately 30 cm (12 in) in length.
This fish mostly feeds on organic matter and small invertebrates. In Manzanilla, this fish was found to feed on sand crabs (Emerita portoricensis) and small bivalves (Donax denticulatus). While looking for food, they travel up and down the coastline in large groups ranging from a dozen to more than a hundred fish.
Like other members of Anableps, this species has eyes that are split into two lobes, allowing it to see above and below water at the same time. They can be distinguished from the sympatric Anableps anableps by having smaller and more numerous scales (76-83 compared to the less than 64 of A. anableps). They also have a left or right-leaning gonopodium like other Anablepidae members and give live birth.

A tenants’ union is a group of tenants that educate others about their rights and responsibilities as renters.
Process
Usually the process starts with a group of tenants creating a written list of demands. One tenant with legitimate complaints about building safety, high rent, maintenance issues and other harmful practices is easy to ignore. An organized group of tenants with a list of specific demands is more likely to get a landlord negotiating. No "official" recognition is required in order for a tenant union to be legitimate and impactful. Federal law prohibits housing discrimination based on race, gender, religion and other protected identity categories, but it doesn't explicitly protect tenants' right to organize collectively.
The goal of a tenants union is to empower people to fight for housing as a human right or reforms like rent control. With the end of eviction moratoriums, tenant unions push for Good Cause Eviction laws in New York. Good cause could include non payment, lease violations, nuisance cases, or if a landlord wants to move into the property.

Michael Downing (May 8, 1958 - February 9, 2021) was an American writer and academic. A longtime professor of creative writing at Tufts University, he was most noted for his 1999 novel Breakfast with Scot, which was a Stonewall Book Award nominee in 2001 and was adapted by Canadian film director Laurie Lynd into the 2007 film Breakfast with Scot.
Career
A native of Pittsfield, Massachusetts, and a graduate of Harvard University, Downing wrote for various magazines before publishing his debut novel A Narrow Time in 1987. He followed up with Mother of God in 1990, and Perfect Agreement in 1997.
He joined Tufts University in 1998, after several years teaching at Wheelock College.
His later books included the novels The Chapel (2015) and Still in Love (2019), the non-fiction books Shoes Outside the Door: Desire, Devotion, and Excess at San Francisco Zen Center (2001) and Spring Forward: The Annual Madness of Daylight Saving Time (2005), and the personal memoir Life with Sudden Death: A Tale of Moral Hazard and Medical Misadventure (2009). The memoir addressed his experiences learning that he suffered from the same genetic heart defect that had caused the sudden deaths of his father and older brother, and his decision to mitigate the risk by having surgery to receive an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator.
Personal life
Downing met his partner Peter Bryant in 1982. The couple legally married in 2013.

Hope Hambourg née Timpson (October 5, 1902 – September 28, 1989) was a British violist. She played with a number of ensembles in the early half of the twentieth century. She was a pupil of Lionel Tertis. With Jean Le Fèvre and Ruth Dyson she played viola in the Le Fèvre Trio.
Early life and education
Margaret Hope Timpson was born in Kettering, Northampton, on 5 October 1902 to William and Katherine Timpson. Her father, William Timpson was the founder of the Timpson shoemaking firm. She was educated at Queenswood School and studied violin with Arthur Catterall, and later viola with Lionel Tertis at the Royal Academy of Music.
Career
In the 1930s, Timpson performed at the Wigmore Hall with the pianist Kathleen Cooper and played with the Leicester Symphony Orchestra, under Malcolm Sargent.
Hambourg played in a number of ensembles, performing regularly with the Le Fèvre String Quartet, Maddison Trio and Quartet, Richards Piano Quartet, Pearl String Quartet, Marie Wilson Quartet and the Kettering String Quartet and Quintette.
In 1940 she married Charles Hambourg, cousin of Russian pianist Mark Hambourg. Charles was a cellist and conductor who, like Hambourg, had studied at the Royal Academy of Music.
In December 1950, Lionel Tertis arranged a concert at the Wigmore Hall in London to demonstrate his Tertis Model Viola. Hambourg was one of a small group of violists who were asked to perform, alongside William Primrose.
Hambourg was a member of the Society of Women Musicians and during the war years was a member of the Council for the Encouragement of Music and the Arts (CEMA), and the Entertainments National Service Association (ENSA).
Hambourg played on an Amati viola which was sold at Sotheby's in 1981 to fund the Hope Hambourg Music Trust, an organisation set up by her cousin, pianist Michal Hambourg.
Hambourg died at the age of 86 in Cornwall, where she had moved with her husband in 1972.

The 2022 West Virginia Senate elections will be held on November 8, 2022, and will elect 17 of the chamber's 34 members. This will coincide with elections in the House of Delegates, and the election of West Virginia's two representatives. Following the 2020 census, this will be the first West Virginia Senate election held after redistricting. Primary elections are scheduled to be held on May 10, 2022.
Retirements
Four members of the West Virginia Senate- three Democrats, and one Republican, are not running for re-election.
Democrats
Mike Romano (District 12), to run for Harrison County Commission.
Bob Beach (District 13) is retiring.
Hannah Geffert (District 16) has not filed for re-election.
Republicans
David Sypolt (District 14) is not running for re-election.
Members for Re-election
In the West Virginia Senate, two members are elected from each of the 17 districts in staggered, four year terms. In the 2022 cycle, nine Republican-held seats and eight Democrat-held seats will be open for election. The names of members up for re-election are shown below.
Overview
In 2022, the Democrats, though defending fewer seats than the Republicans, have far more of their seats contested in this cycle than in the next one, with eight Democrats up for re-election in 2022 and only three up in 2024. On the other hand, Republicans, holding nine of the contested seats, have slightly less to defend than in 2024, when fourteen Republicans will be up for re-election. The large number of Democrats up for election, the expected Republican advantage in 2022, and the several Republican-held seats that have been left unchallenged indicate an election in which Republicans have far more room to expand their caucus than Democrats do.

The ASU Multi-Purpose Arena (no official name) is a 5,000-seat indoor arena under construction in Tempe, Arizona. It will be the home of the Arizona State Sun Devils men's ice hockey team, and the temporary home of the Arizona Coyotes from 2022–2025, at least. The arena will be owned by Arizona State University.
History
In November 2020, the Arizona Board of Regents' finance committee approved plans to construct a new, 5,000-seat indoor arena on-campus near Desert Financial Arena, which will replace Oceanside Ice Arena as the Sun Devils men's hockey home arena starting in 2022. The arena will also be used for women's gymnastics and for wrestling, and a community ice rink will be adjacent the arena.
As of late January 2022, the Arizona Coyotes were in talks with Arizona State University (ASU) to use their new 5,000-seat arena as a temporary home arena for the next three to four years, as their lease with Gila River Arena expired in 2022. On February 10, 2022, the Coyotes signed a three-year agreement to play their games at the yet-as-unnamed ASU arena, starting with the 2022–23 season. The cost of completing the arena to accommodate the Coyotes will be about $19.7 million, which will be paid by the team.

Praskovya "Pasha" Ivanovna Savelieva was a Soviet underground partisan during World War II who was awarded the Order of Lenin for her actions.
Biography
Savelieva was born on 5 October 1918 in the village of Zarubino in the province of Tver. She graduated from school in Rzhev in 1936, then attended the Moscow Institute of Credit and Economics.
During World War II, she refused to evacuate from the city of Lutsk in Ukraine where she was living. After the city was occupied, she immediately began an underground group in the fall of 1941 alongside V.V. Izmailov. Members of the group distributed leaflets, helped Soviet POWs escape from German prisons, and stole German documents and medicine. After the death of Izmailov, Savelieva became the sole leader of the underground group.
In the spring of 1943, Savelieva's group was able to establish contact with partisans under the command of Dmitry Medvedev. During this time, the mission of Savelieva's group began to change drastically. Collaborating with the partisans, the group used a detailed map of Lutsk to identify military facilities and begin engaging in sabotage. These actions included sabotage of a railway and stealing a sample of an experimental chemical weapon to send back to Moscow.
On 22 December 1943, a collaborationist turned in a tip to the Gestapo which led to Savelieva being arrested by the secret police. On 12 January 1944, after severe torture and interrogation, she was burned alive in the courtyard of a former Catholic monastery in Lutsk. Before her death, on the wall of her cell, she scrawled a note with a nail which, when translated, read:
Awards
Order of Lenin (1945, posthumously)
Memorials
Numerous memorials and buildings have been created or named for Praskovya Savelieva. Selected memorials and events are listed here.
Soviet period
A museum was dedicated to Savelieva in Rzhev, which is now a children's library.
In 1965, a street in Rzhev was named for Savelieva. Additionally, in Lutsk, Polyarnaya Street was renamed Pasha Savelyeva Street.
In 1972, a bronze monument was erected at the site of Savelieva's death through fundraising by the citizens of Lutsk.
Since 1975, all-Union motorsport competitions have been held in Lutsk, with athletes competing for the Pasha Savelieva Prize.
In 1977, an illustrated stamped envelope was issued which depicts the Pasha Savelieva monument in Lutsk.
Post-Soviet period
In May 2006, an attempt was made to steal the Pasha Savelieva monument in Lutsk. It was thrown off its pedestal and damaged. The sculpture was repaired and reinstalled, but in August of the same year it was stolen again and has not been found since.
In 2007, Pasha Savelieva Street in Lutsk was renamed to Galshka Gulevichevna Street.

The 2018–19 Alaska Anchorage Seawolves men's ice hockey season was the 40th season of play for the program, the 35th at the Division I level and the 26th in the WCHA conference. The Seawolves represented the University of Alaska Anchorage and were coached by Matt Curley, in his 1st season.
Season
Any hope that the Seawolves would improve under new head coach Matt Curley were quickly banished when Alaska Anchorage dropped the opener 2–10. While they recovered to win the rematch a day later, the team's offense was too inept to get a second win for over two months. Alaska Anchorage had one of the worst offensive performances in the history of NCAA hockey, scoring just 40 goals in 34 games, and were shut out 11 times during the season. Throughout the season, the team struggled to even get chances on goal, averaging just over 22 shots per game while surrendering nearly 32 attempts on their own goal. Perhaps making the situation worse, Alaska Anchorage squandered many good performances by their goaltenders, who gave the team numerous chances to win, including two 0–0 finishes.
Despite producing the worst season in program history, Alaska Anchorage retained Curley as their head coach.
