Computation of time or reckoning of time is a legal term which designates how time is calculated in law. Use Computation of time is namely used to determinate when a law or another legal document enters into force. Two possible ways of computing time are the civil time and the natural time. Civil time uses days as units to delineate time; natural time uses hours, and sometimes minutes. Roman law Roman law distinguished two methods of computing time: civil time and natural time. Natural time consists in computing time a momento ad momentum. Civil time is reckoned by entire days, thus the hour of the day at which an occurrence took place is not asked. The computation of time by civil reckoning is the rule, and it comes into application where the acquisition of a right depends upon the lapse of a certain time, in which case any hour or moment of the day suffices; however, where the loss of a right depends upon lapse of time, the last day must have wholly expired.

Bernadito M. "Ben" Leito (6 February 1923 – September 1996) was a Curaçaoan economist, politician and administrator. He served as Governor of the Netherlands Antilles from 1970 until 1983, and the Dutch Council of State from 1987 until 1993. Biography Leito was born on 6 February 1923 in Curaçao. He went to the Netherlands to attend the Hogere Burgerschool (high school) in Leiden. In 1945, he studied economy at Tilburg University, and graduated in 1950. In 1952, Leito became a civil servant in Curaçao, and started to work for the finance department in 1953. He was a candidate in the 1954 Netherlands Antilles general election for the Catholic People's Party, but did not get elected. In 1961, he became head of finance for Curaçao, and was promoted head of finance for the Netherlands Antilles in 1965. In 1968, he served as acting Lieutenant governor of Curaçao.

Theodore Myers Riley (June 9, 1842 - December 1, 1914) was a prominent American Anglo-Catholic priest, author, and seminary professor born in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. A Civil War deserter from the Union Army, he was made a deacon on June 28, 1863, in the Episcopal Diocese of New York. (Riley enlisted on December 31, 1862, in the 151st Infantry Division, mustered on January 5, 1863, and deserted on February 16, 1863.) He was ordained to the priesthood, also in the Diocese of New York, by Bishop Horatio Potter in 1866. He was a graduate of the General Theological Seminary. He served first as rector of All Saints, Navesink, New Jersey (then called Riceville) in the Episcopal Diocese of New Jersey (1866-1872). He achieved international notoriety as rector of S. Clement's, Philadelphia from 1872 to 1875 during a controversy over ritualism with diocesan bishop the Right Reverend William Bacon Stevens. The bishop demanded that Riley cease wearing vestments unauthorized in the Protestant Episcopal Church, that he refrain from mixing water with the wine in the celebration of the Holy Communion, that he cease elevations during the Prayer of Consecration, that genuflection by choristers and clergy before the altar be discontinued, that there should be no lighted candles unless necessary for illumination, and that the hearing of private confessions be discontinued. With the ritual controversy unresolved, he resigned and was succeeded by Oliver Sherman Prescott of the Society of Saint John the Evangelist; Riley was called to the Church of the Ascension in Chicago, Illinois but declined nomination. He was rector of the former Holy Trinity Church, Minneapolis from 1876 to 1882. Riley served as Professor of Ecclesiastical History at Nashotah House Theological Seminary (1882-1893), and Professor of Pastoral Theology at the General Theological Seminary in New York (1894-1902). He was chaplain to the sisters of the Community of St. Mary at Kemper Hall in Kenosha, Wisconsin for 13 years concurrent with his tenure at Nashotah House. Blindness forced his retirement from seminary teaching, and he was made an honorary canon of All Saints Cathedral, Milwaukee. He retired as rector of Christ Church, Hudson, New York and was made rector emeritus. He also served briefly as locum tenens at St. Luke's Church, Lebanon, Pennsylvania, and Trinity Church, Muscatine, Iowa. Riley wrote extensive biographies of seminary dean Eugene Augustus Hoffman and Charles George Gordon (the "Chinese Gordon"), whom he considered an "uncanonized saint." He was buried in Carlisle, Pennsylvania on December 5, 1914. The Faculty of the General Theological Seminary issued an obituary memorial note dated January 7, 1915: "The fact that Dr. Riley remained unmarried perhaps tended to the wider expansion of his affections among friends, who highly appreciated his many attractive and lovable traits. He always was eminently the priest: but with his hearty love of others, his extensive reading and refinement of culture, his delicate sense of humor and the inexhaustible fund of anecdote wherewith he was wont to apply it, he was one of the most charming of associates. It is sad to think of the comparative loneliness of the last days of one so congenially companionable; but surely the faith to which his life had been so constantly devoted must have enabled him to share the sustaining conviction of his Divine Master who, though all had forsaken Him, could not be alone, since the Father was with Him. And in their kindly commemoration of their departed friend, the faculty are glad to think of him as at rest in that gracious and unfailing support."

Goetheanism is a term commonly used in the context of anthroposophy and Waldorf education for a holistic oriented science methodology. The scientific works of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe are regarded as the paradigmatic foundation of this methodology. It was theoretically founded by Rudolf Steiner as editor and commentator of Goethe's scientific writings (1883-1897) and as author of an "Epistemology of Goethe's Worldview" (1886). Goetheanist research strives to combine empirical Methodology and holistic understanding of essence, with the aim to overcome the epistemological split between subject and object. History and name The word Goetheanism first appears in 1803 in a letter from the Swedish poet and diplomat Karl Gustaf von Brinkman to Goethe. He used it to refer to Goethe's overall devotion to the world. However, this term did not become generally used in the 19th century. In the early 20th century, Rudolf Steiner, the founder of anthroposophy, often spoke of "Goetheanism" in lectures, by which he meant mainly, but not exclusively, the method underlying Goethe's studies of nature. Thus the word became common among anthroposophists. Outside these circles, on the other hand, it is not used to this day, not even by natural scientists who - like the botanist Wilhelm Troll or the zoologist Adolf Portmann - explicitly follow Goethe in terms of methodology. Even within anthroposophical circles there is no agreement on the meaning of the term "Goetheanism". Thus the Goetheanist Wolfgang Schad writes: "It is used to denote: a) For example, simply throughout everything that is scientific work in anthroposophical contexts. [...] c) The experimental verification of many of Steiner's statements with the methods of the university natural sciences. d) Any poetic, aesthetically experiencing approach to nature without any claim to science. e) The cultural-scientific contents in art, art history, history, linguistics and literature oriented towards anthroposophy. f) The arts that have grown out of anthroposophy, such as eurythmy and the organic style in architecture [...]." In terms of scientific methodology, the term Goetheanist has been coined in more recent times mainly by the Schriften des frühen Goetheanismus edited by Renate Riemeck (c. 1980) and the book series Goetheanistische Naturwissenschaft edited by Wolfgang Schad (1982-1985), which mainly brings together publications by anthroposophical biologists such as Jochen Bockemühl, Andreas Suchantke and Schad himself. In fundamental essays, leading Goetheanists emphasise the close connection of Goetheanism with anthroposophy. "Only there is, [...] a logic of thought and a logic of life. And he who does not merely delve into Goethe through a logic of thought, but who takes alive Goethe's impulses, which are full of impulses, and now tries to gain from them what can be gained after so many decades have passed over the development of humanity since Goethe's death, will believe [.... ] as he will, that through the living impulses of Goetheanism - if I may use the expression - precisely this Anthroposophy has been able to come into being through the logic of life, through experiencing what lies in Goethe, and through letting grow in a modest way what Goethe had indicated." (Rudolf Steiner) Systematics In his main scientific works "Attempt to explain the metamorphosis of plants" (1790) and "On the Theory of Colours" (1810), Goethe developed different approaches. Accordingly, Steiner also distinguished between the knowledge of inorganic and organic nature in his "Basic Lines of an Epistemology of Goethe's World View" (1886). Following on from this, anthroposophically oriented natural scientists formulated the following "systematics" in 1980, which follows the four-limbed conception of man of anthroposophy: In the inorganic, thinking is used to order the qualities given to the senses by observation and experiment in such a way that one phenomenon in its states and processes becomes intelligible as a consequence of other phenomena. A distinction is made between essential (necessary for the appearance of the phenomenon) and non-essential (only modifying) conditions. Such a phenomenon, in which an immediately understandable, lawful connection with the essential conditions appears, is an original phenomenon. From such, all relations between further phenomena can be derived and the latter thus understood (proving method). Thus, deriving from the primordial phenomenon of colours (emergence of colour at light, darkness and turbidity) Goethe developed the basis of an optics. In the organic world the members of the phenomena no longer merely condition each other, but each individual is determined by the whole according to its peculiarity. When studying the processes, it is noticed that the transformation (metamorphosis) of the leaf organs of a plant from the cotyledons to the stem leaves, the sepals, the corolla, the stamens and the carpels is carried out from a basic form (the type); the external conditions have a modifying effect. In the same sense, the different species become intelligible as special manifestations of the genus. This points to a sensuous-sensuous process which, according to the idea, is the same in all plants, but which, according to the appearance, produces different forms both in the individual plant and in the whole plant kingdom and which Goethe called the Urpflanze (the general type of plant). From this, according to Goethe, plants can be invented into infinity, which must be consistent and have an inner truth and necessity (developing method). In contrast to the plant, the animal develops a mental inner life that manifests itself outwardly in the instinct and drive-bound self-mobility; in addition, the human being consciously participates in the spiritual in his inner being. In connection with this, the change of animal and human forms, in contrast to the change of plant forms, contains essential leaps, which are caused, among other things, by inversion. (e. e.g. in the formation of the internal organs) or inversion, e. e.g. of tubular bones into the bones of the skull, can be understood. The developing method is thus extended to the inversion method, with the help of which, among other things, the tripartite structure of the animal and human organism, consisting of nerve-sense organs, rhythmic organs and organs of metabolism, is explored beginning with the embryonic development. In contrast to the animal, in the corporeality of the human being, the effects of the sensory nervous system, which is permeated by processes of death, and of the system of metabolism and limbs, which is in the process of building up, are mediated by an independent rhythmic system (heart, circulatory system, and respiratory system), which momentarily rekindles the momentarily paralysed life, in such a way that they become the physiological basis of thinking, willing and feeling; through these soul-activities, human individuality can continue its own development. From these connections, Goetheanism attempts to understand and shape the social organism in its Social threefolding into spiritual, legal and economic life. This system, however, was rather programmatic in character and is not generally accepted among Goetheanists. Goethe quotes "A phenomenon, an experiment can prove nothing; it is the link of a great chain which is only valid in the context. He who would cover a string of pearls and show only the most beautiful one by one, demanding that we should believe him that the rest are all like it, would hardly enter into the bargain." (Sprüche in Prosa 160, Maximen und Reflexionen 501.) "No phenomenon explains itself in and of itself; only many surveyed together, methodically ordered, give at last something that could be considered theory." (Sprüche in Prosa 161, Maximen und Reflexionen 500.) "The highest thing would be to understand that everything factual is already theory. The blueness of the sky reveals to us the fundamental law of chromatics. Only do not look for anything behind the phenomena; they themselves are the teaching." (Sprüche in Prosa 165, Maximen und Reflexionen 488.) "There is a tender empiricism which makes itself intimately identical with the object, and thereby becomes theory proper. But this heightening of the intellectual faculty belongs to a highly educated age." (Sprüche in Prosa 167, Maximen und Reflexionen 509.) "The opinion of the most excellent men and their example gives me hope that I am on the right path, and I wish that my friends, who sometimes ask me what my intention is in my optical endeavours, may be satisfied with this explanation. My intention is: to gather all experience in this subject, to make all experiments myself and to carry them out through their greatest diversity, by which means they are also easy to imitate and are not out of the field of vision of so many people. Then set up the sentences in which the experiences of the higher kind can be expressed, and wait to see to what extent these also rank themselves under a higher principle." (Essay: The Experiment as Mediator of Object and Subject.) "... for nature alone becomes comprehensible when one endeavours to present the most diverse phenomena, which seem isolated, in methodical succession; since one then well learns to understand that there is no first and last, but that everything, enclosed in a living circle, instead of contradicting itself, clarifies itself and presents the most delicate relations to the inquiring mind."

Teodulfo Sabugal Domingo (September 5, 1910 - June 3, 2002) was a prelate of the Roman Catholic Church in the Philippines. He was the fifth Bishop of Tuguegarao and first Archbishop of Tuguegarao. He was the first Cagayano to be consecrated as bishop. Biography Archbishop Teodulfo S. Domingo was born in San Jose, Baggao, Cagayan on September 5, 1910. For his priestly formation, he first studied at the San Jacinto Seminary and later in the Immaculate Conception School of Theology (ICST), which was run by the SVD fathers at that time. He was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop Constant J. Jurgens, CICM on April 3, 1938. He is the first Cagayano in history to be consecrated as bishop. He was consecrated bishop on July 2, 1957, at the St. Peter Cathedral by then Apostolic Nuncio to the Philippines Archbishop Egidio Vagnozzi, as principal consecrator. Acting as co-consecrators were Bishop Alejandro A. Olalia of Lipa (previously Bishop of Tuguegarao) and Bishop Peregrin de la Fuente, OP of the Prelature of Batanes and the Babuyan Islands (now Prelature of Batanes). He was also installed as the Fifth Bishop of Tuguegarao. He was a delegate during the Second Vatican Council (1962–65) and he attended all of the sessions. On September 21, 1974, he was appointed as the first Archbishop of Tuguegarao following the elevation of the diocese of Tuguegarao as an Archdiocese on September 21, 1974. On January 31, 1986, John Paul II accepted Domingo's resignation, ending the reign of the first Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Tuguegarao, the longest serving prelate of Tuguegarao (1957-1974 as Bishop of Tuguegarao, 1974-1986 as Archbishop of Tuguegarao) up to this date. That same day, he was succeeded by his Auxiliary Bishop Diosdado A. Talamayan as the Second Archbishop of Tuguegarao. He died on June 3, 2002, in Villa Domingo, Solana, Cagayan at the age of 91. Coat of Arms The coat of arms of the Archdiocese of Tuguegarao appears on the left side of the viewer while that of Archbishop Domingo appears on the right.

Hans-Jürgen Krahl (17 January 1943 - 13 February 1970) was a West German philosophy student and political activist who came to wider prominence as a participant in the '68 Student Protest movement of which, in the eyes of admirers, he was a leading ideologue. His admirers included Rudi Dutschke (1940-1979). He was a leading member of the endlessly fractious Socialist German Students' League. During the middle 1960s, Krahl became a star student and doctoral pupil of the polymath-philosopher Theodor W. Adorno. Early in 1969, after four years during which Krahl treated Adorno as an academic mentor, there was a falling out between the two men, however. This arose in the context of a student occupation of the University of Frankfurt Institute for Social Research in which Krahl was involved. Adorno, as director of the institute summoned the police to evict the "trespassing" students on 7 January 1969. Adorno died suddenly later that same year, eleven days after the ending of trial process that followed on from the events at the institute. Krahl himself was only 27 when he was killed, a front-seat passenger in a motor accident on an icy road north of Marburg, barely six months after the death of Adorno. His reputation as the great theoretician of Europe's '68 movement, able and willing to grapple with both the ideological and the economic mechanisms of mature capitalism, persists among scholars of the political left. Much of Krahl's written work, which included large amounts of material delivered orally - albeit in perfectly formed prose structures - and recorded at the time, to be transcribed onto paper only much later, was published posthumously. Life Provenance and early years Hans-Jürgen Krahl came from a lower-middle class ("kleinbürgerlich" / "petit bourgeois") background in what he later termed "the darkest recesses of Lower Saxony" (aus "den finstersten Teilen Niedersachsens"). He was born in January 1943 at a time when suspicions were stirring among the German people that the Second World War might not end in the promised German victory. Rudolf Krahl, his father, and his mother, born Erna Schulze, were both employed in private sector business. Rudolf Krahl was no fan of the National Socialists during the Hitler years, but nor is there any indication that he engaged actively in political resistance. Where it came to upbringing, Krahl's parents appear to have provided their child with an upbringing marginally more liberal than would have been deemed conventional at the time. Hans-Jürgen was still very small when, probably early in 1944, he lost his right eye during the course of an aerial bomb attack. For the rest of his life he wore an artificial eye. By the time the European war ended in May 1945 the little family had moved to Stettin, but early in 1945 they had joined the flood of refugees desperate to escape from the advancing Soviet army, and ended up back in Sarstedt, the little town a short distance up-river of Hannover. It was in Sarstedt that he spent most of hus childhood. When he was 15 the family relocated to Alsfeld, some 100 kilometers further to the south. After he grew up he would look back on both the towns in which he spent his childhood as archetypal examples of conservative "small-town Germany". According to his own later reports, as a boy Krahl became involved with the "Ludendorffbund", a right-wing extremist political organisation under the leadership (at least till it was outlawed in 1961) of Mathilde Ludendorff, widow of the infamous General Ludendorff 1865-1937. The "Ludendorffbund" was a populist movement dedicated to ethniocationalism and racism and other mystical extremist notions which had fallen out of fashion in western Europe in the aftermath of the twelve year Hitler nightmare, and was in its day regarded as somewhat "niche". By contrast, the CDU (political party), the centre-right party of Konrad Adenauer, of which Krahl became a member in 1961, was widely perceived as the heart of the political mainstream, particularly in the conservatively inclined small town German towns in which Krahl grew up. Nevertheless, as his political journey across the political spectrum continued through the 1960s, Krahl would come to view the CDU, with which he had engaged as an activist member between 1961 and 1963, with much the same level of contempt and distaste that he would epply to the "crypto-nazi" "Ludendorffbund". Meanwhile, he was still living in Alsfeld with his famly when he became a "passionate founding member" of an Alsfeld branch of the "Junge Union", the youth wing of the CDU. University student In 1963 Krahl enrolled at the University of Göttingen to study Philosophy, Germanistics, Mathematics and History. At the same time he joined the Coburger Convent Verdensia student fraternity, By 1964 Krahl had left the CDU Alsfeld party branch. According to Krahl himself, he was expelled from it during an angry disagreement. In 1964 he joined the "Sozialistischer Deutscher Studentenbund" ("Socialist German Students' League" / SDS), an increasinggly radical political organisation, members of which had been expelled from West Germany's centre-left Social Democratic Party (of which it had originally been a part) in 1961, due to disagreements over German re-armament. Rudi Dutschke would join the SDS in 1965, after which the two men successfully led the organisation further away from the traditional political mainstream. By the later 1960s Krahl was widely recognised as one of the SDS's leading exponents of anti-authoritatian socialism. Theodor W. Adorno and the "Frankfurt School" In 1964 or 1965 (sources differ) Krahl switched to the so-called Frankfurt School of the "Institut für Sozialforschung" (IfS / "Institute for Social Research") which at that time was still a stand-alone institution (though it has subsequently been reincorporated into the Goethe University in Frankfurt). The lure was the opportunity to study with Theodor W. Adorno, who would have a decisive and lasting influence on him. In 1965 he began work on his doctoral dissertation on the "Natural Law of the Capitalist Movement applying the definitions derived by Karl Marx" ("Naturgesetz der kapitalistischen Bewegung bei Marx"). The doctorate was supervised by Adorno himself. Sources identify Krahl as "Adorno's favourite student", recalling that Krahl was the only one of Adorno's students or staff members at the e IFS whom Adorno was prepared to debate on a basis of intellectual equality. Krahl was blessed with a formidable memory and power of recall. He was exceptionally lucid. He was massively well educated and eloquent. In terms of socialist political philosophy, he had found the time and opportunity to become phenonenally well-read in terms both of depth and of breadth. He was also hugely respectful of his doctoral mentor-supervisor, from whom he drew numerous key concepts of the "Frankfurt School Critical theory", which he applied in a number of important philosophical-political writings of his own. Krahl's break with his philosophical father figure came after for years. A student occupation took place at the IFS on 7 January 1969 which Adorno and his senior colleagues at the institute invited police to evict. In Frankfurt the public mood in respect of student protests had been somewhat heated for more than half a year, and the police unhesitatingly complied with the request of the Institute authorities. Following the eviction, police arrested 76 of the students involved, including Krahl, the favourite pupil whom by many criteria Adorno had at this point vehemently disowned. Adorno was painfully conscious of the brutal irony whereby "a piece of political theater" had left him identified by many of his students as a defender of conservative repression. He attempted to resume lecturing in June 1969, but active hostility from students who favoured “extra-parliamentary opposition” and who might previously idolised him prevented it. A few weeks later, on 18 July 1969, he found himself invited to testify at Krahl's trial on a charge of breaching the peace. If, as some commentators seem to have anticipated, Krahl was hoping to be able to recreate the Athenian Agora in a Frankfurt court room in order to engage in a very public debate on the fundamentals of critical theory with its most important theoretician, he was disappointed. It is hard to be confident that Adorno was unaffected by the months of ad hominem attacks from IFS radical students who identified a polarised battle between himself and his (formerly) favourite pupil, however. The trial that followed may have been the last straw. A few weeks later he took a break with his wife, visiting Zermatt where, in defiance of medical advice, he took a hike into the mountains and suffered a heart attack. He died in a Swiss hospital on 6 August 1969. Krahl's own death followed only six months later. Sigrid Rüger and the "tomatoes incident" On 13 September 1968 Krahl was involved, unintentionally, in an incident at the 23rd delegates' conference of the SDS which some have characterised as the launching pad for second-wave feminism in West Germany. The conference was held at Frankfurt am Main, which was Krahl's home city and, importantly, home to a number of nationally distributed West German and international newspapers along with many of their journalists. As a leading member of the SDS, Krahl was one of those seated in a single row along the front of the stage, facing the main body of the hall. In the main hall, on one side of the room, was grouped a small party of women from the Action Council for women's liberation. Unbeknown to the conference organisers, the women were on a mission of their own. Not all of them were SDS members. One who was a relatively prominent member within the SDS was Sigrid Rüger, heavily pregnant and highly visible, in addition, on account of her very red hair. Something these women shared was a belief that among the SDS (male) student leaders there was a singular absence of empathy with feminist viewpoints and issues. Another of the women in the group was Helke Sander an activist film-maker originally from Berlin who had recently returned to Germany after several years lving and working in Helsinki. Sander stood up and, taking the organisers by surprise, delivered a speech. There seems to have been some frantic sotto-voce dscussion among the SDS leaders seated on the stage over how to shut this woman up; but in the event most delegates listened in relative silence. It was quite a short speech, but nevertheless managed to tackle in some depth several of the priorities of the feminists' Action Council. It concluded with a rousing plea: "Comrades, if you are not yet ready for this discussion, which needs to be conducted on the basis of substantive issues, then we will have established that the SDS is nothing more than an over-inflated bubble of counter-revolutionary uncooked dough. The women comrades will then know what conclusions to draw." There seems to have been some irritation from the conference organisers that their carefully devised schedule had been disrupted, and there was a firm refusal to allow still more time to be taken up with any discussion of Sander's speech. On the part of the Action Council women there was clearly a concern that the speech might simply be ignored by the conference and thereafter quickly forgotten. Sigrid Rüger, for one, was determined that this should not happen. Afflicted, in the context of her pregnancy, by a powerful dietary craving, Rüger had arrived at the incerence clutching a large box of tomatoes, which she had placed on the table in front of her. She now threw several (according to some sources, three) tomatoes in the direction of the row of male SDS leaders on the stage, uttering an exclamation addressed, according to some sources, to Hans-Jürgen Krahl as she did it. One of them hit Hans-Jürgen Krahl, who was deep in discussion with a neighbour. It was later reported by some that she had been aiming not at Krahl (who was gay and, in a number of ways, the complete opposite of a misogynist) but at the face of Helmut Schauer the SDS president at the time. Thrown vegetables or eggs were a much loved protest device during this period. Preferred targets in West Germany were politicians and other establishment figures perceived by the throwers as more than averagely reactionary. The attention grabbing difference on this occasion was that the thrown tomatoes came from a group of SDS women: their target was the (male) leadership circle of their own student socialist organisation. Krahl was a sensitive man and by this time assumed by many comrades to be suffering from alcoholism. He was deeply upset. "That evening Krahl sat in the bath and cried", recalled a mutual friend, Tilman Fichter, speaking to a reporter: "Then Sigrid came round to comfort him. That's how she was". From the point of view of the women from the Action Council, the tomato throwing incident was a great duccess. The agenda of the feminist activits had recaptured its place the mainstream media agenda which, in Germany, it would retain for many years. Peace prize affair On 16 October 1969 Krahl was back before a court. This time he was charged with "participating in the leadership of a breach of the peace" ("Aufruhrs und des Landfriedensbruchs als Rädelsführer"). He was identified by the court, along with his co-accused, Günter Amendt and Karl Dietrich Wolff as one of three leading members of the SDS who had taken part in a deminstration against the awarding of the "Peace Prize of the German Book Trade" to Président Senghor of Senegal. The court was told that demonstration had taken place outside Frankfurt's (hugely symbolic for believers in democracy) "Paulskirche" on 22 September 1969 without the required authorisation. By this time a number of other pending trials against each of the defendants were building up in the pipeline of the criminal justice system. In respect of the case of the Senaglaese president and his peace prize, the verdict came through on 24 December 1969. The three defendants were all found guilty, and each was sentenced to a 21-month prison term. Krahl's application to appeal the verdict was granted however. In the end he never served any part of the prison sentence. Death Late at night on 13 February 1970 Hans-Jürgen Krahl was a passenger in the front seat of a car travelling from Paderborn towards Marburg the B252 (main road). Conditions were icy and the car was involved in a collision with an oncoming truck near Wrexen (Diemelstadt). Krahl was killed instantly. Franz-Josef Bevermeier from Paderborn who had been driving the car at the time of the collision was taken to a hispital where he died three hours later. There were three other passengers in the car were badly injured. Philosophical development As the star doctoral student of the much admired Theodor Adorno, Krahl took as his point of departure Adorno's "Frankfurt School Critical theory" social critique and built on ideas inferred from it in his doctoral dissertation and subsequent written work. He derived and evolved from it a "thesis of the technical-scientific intelligentsia", which provides definition and impulse for the centrality of "thought labour" and "mass intellectual output" in late-stage capitalist societies. With these analyses, Krahl pursues a line of reasoning already resonating at the Frankfurt School, while foreshadowing analyses which, in the years ahead, would lead many militants and thinkers of the left to dismiss the revolutionary role of the factory worker class as being of diminished relevance. After Rudi Dutschke was shot in Paris "by a protnazi attacker" and seriously incapacitated on 11 April 1968, Krahl found himself expected by SDS comrades to fill the void that had opened up in respect of on some of the charismatic and intellectual leadership roles that Dutsche had hitherto occupied. Krahl's leadership within the SDS differed from that if Dutschke. He tended, some believed, to treat the SDS as "a production facility for theories of the proletariat" rather than as an organisation of direct political militancy. The so-called Prague Spring and the ensuing Soviet-led invasion of Czechoslovakia in August 1968 represented a series of events on which Krahl expressed himself with robust clarity. Like Dutschke, he was powerfully positive about attempts by the Dubček government to re-normalise Socialism outside the authoritarian constraints of Stalinism's enduring legacy. On the other hand, he was openly disappointed by the Prague reformers' vision of and alternative socialist vision which was, he asserted, less than radical. After the Soviet tanks had rolled into Prague, Krahl shared his opinion that the "Soviet counter-revolution [had] prematurely and violently closed down the possibility - not without its own contradictions - of pursuing the revolutionary liberation struggle on the home turf of European socialism". Legacy The year following his death a volume was compiled and published comprising the collected writings of Hans-Jürgen Krahl. It had been re-published a number of times. The 2005 (fourth German-language) re-issue runs to 440 pages. SDS membership had peaked at around 2,500 in 1968. Immediately after Krahl's death the organisation seemed to lose not merely its voice, but its entire sense of direction and purpose. It fell into a rapid succession of crises culminating, formally on 21 March 1970, in its dissolution. It was not forgotten, however, notably in Italy, where the published work of Hans-Jürgen Krahl and actions undertaken by the SDS during its time under his influence and leadership created a defining point of reference for the "Movimento del '77" (an anti-parliamentary leftwing student uprising largely confined to university students in Bologna, Milan, Turin and Rome). Tellingly, many of the currently available sources for the life of Hans-Jürgen Krahl are published not in German but in Italian. Krahl's criticisms targeting ("from within") Frankfurt School thinking still resonate powerfully, especially those aimed at his sometime intellectual nemesis, Jürgen Habermas. Celebration In August 2005, shortly after Krahl's grave had been leveled because there were no longer any living relatives willing and able to pay for its maintenance, Hannover's Mayor Schmalstieg intervened to secure the grave plot, contributing to the costs. A group of friends teamed up to collect money for grave maintenance and, on 27 June 2007, oversaw the placing of a modernist replacement gravestone, designed by Uwe Spiekermann, on Krahl's flattened grave plot. The main speaker at the inauguration the new memorial stone was Adorno's biographer Detlev Claussen, and the man who 37 years earlier had already delivered the funeral oration at Krahl's funeral. During the first part of 2007 work, under the auspices of the "DenkArt Verein" began on the "Hans-Jürgen Krahl Archive". Start-up finance came from the Frankfurt city council.

A statue of the Scottish politician Donald Dewar stands on Buchanan Street in Glasgow city centre. The statue was unveiled on 7 May 2002 by the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Tony Blair. It was sculpted by Kenny Mackay. The statue is 9 feet in height. Dewar is depicted wearing spectacles and his "characteristic stoop and crumpled suit". The statue was unveiled on 7 May 2002 by the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Tony Blair in front of a crowd of several hundred people. At the unveiling of the statue Blair said that Dewar's " ... compassion, his fundamental decency and his deep sense of social justice defined his entire approach as a politician" and described him as a "transforming moderate". The former leader of Scottish Labour, Wendy Alexander, said that the statue was " ... magnificent, the setting and the angle of it ...It's wonderful but it's not what he was when he was at his most exhausted". The statue was taken down in October 2005 to be cleaned, and was re-erected on high plinth in December in an effort to protect it from vandalism.

Coma is a 2022 French film written and directed by Bertrand Bonello. The film made its world premiere in competition at the Berlin Film Festival in the Encounters section on February 12, 2022. This is the first film starring Gaspard Ulliel to be released after his death. The film mixes animation and live action and tells the story of a teenage girl who is locked up in her house during a global health crisis and navigates between dreams and reality, until she starts following a disturbing and mysterious YouTuber named Patricia Coma. It stars Louise Labeque, Julia Faure, Gaspard Ulliel, Laetitia Casta, Vincent Lacoste, Louis Garrel and Anaïs Demoustier. Cast Julia Faure as Patricia Coma Louise Labeque as Young Girl Laetitia Casta as Sharon (voice) Gaspard Ulliel as Scott (voice) Vincent Lacoste as Nicholas (voice) Louis Garrel as Dr. Ballard (voice) Anaïs Demoustier as Ashley (voice) Production Director Bertrand Bonello wrote the screenplay for the film during France's January 2021 lockdown, shooting in his own house with a small crew and limited means. The film is dedicated to, and inspired by Bonello's then-18-year-old daughter, Anna. Gaspard Ulliel, who voiced the doll Scott, had recently died following a skiing accident when Bonello was editing the film. Bonello told Variety: "I was alone in a screening room, and Gaspard had just died, and when I heard his voice resonating in the room it was like a haunting. I thought about some lines from the letter to my daughter where I talk about those we've lost. The film is called 'Coma' and has scenes in a forest that connects the living and the dead. So watching it again felt uncanny. Gaspard resonated throughout." Marketing The first image featuring Louise Labeque and plot details were revealed on February 2, 2022. Two clips from the film were released on February 10, 2022. Belgian distributor Best Friend Forever released a poster and an exclusive 20-second teaser trailer for the film on their Instagram account on February 11, 2022. On February 16, 2022, Best Friend Forever released on their Instagram account a new 9-second clip featuring Louise Labeque playing an electronic device similar to Rubik's Cube. Release On February 2, 2022, it was reported that Brussels-based company Best Friend Forever had acquired the film. New Story will release the film in France. No date has been set yet. The film had its world premiere in the Encounters section at the 72nd Berlin International Film Festival on February 12, 2022.

Tawny Chatmon (born 1979) is an American photographic artist known for her portraits of Black children overlaid with gold leaf and paint. Career Chatmon was born in Tokyo in a military family, an "army brat" who traveled the world. She eventually was raised in Montgomery County, Maryland. She became a self-taught commercial photographer but after she created a photographic record of her father's illness and death from cancer in 2010, she turned away from commercial work and instead began to focus more on Black children, including her own. Colossal, a website of contemporary art, noted that Chatmon's use of overlapping layers of paint and 24-karat gold leaf, along with semi-precious stones, glass, and other mixed media, draws influences from artist Gustav Klimt and Byzantine masterpieces. Chatmon then displays her work in gilded golden frames, often repurposed from old master paintings. She was drawn to old master art while growing up in Germany and visiting museums and palaces "but was haunted by the negative historical representations of Black figures in European and American art as well as their absence.” Chatmon often manipulates the images of confidant Black boys and girls, paying special attention to their hair, before adding layers of gold paint. In doing so, she “reinforces magnificence and pride” in a world where Black hair styles often are viewed as unkempt and unprofessional. She also introduces symbols such as such as circles, birds and suns and upside-down hearts, found on the graves of the last known ship carrying enslaved people to arrive in the United States. Chatmon features "her subjects, their bountiful hair resplendent in coils and curls, and their glistening brown skin in shades from chestnut to mahogany, against a stark white background," according to The Washington Post magazine, though in more recent work "young subjects are rendered into historical landscape paintings, in hues of gentle greens and blues." "Her work, a mixture of painting and portraiture, is a regal reflection of Blackness," wrote Boston Globe culture columnist Jeneé Osterheldt. "Her work is so often a response to the ways in which our hair, our clothes, and our culture are criminalized. She uses gold paints and rich tones to illustrate our worth." In 2018 Chatmon was named International Photographer of the Year at the International Photography Awards. "Her portfolio is brimming with blends of multiple genres of visual art, and her photographs speak volumes," the IPA announcement said. "With her precise and detailed execution and her beautiful and well-thought concepts, her distinct style stands out from the crowd." In 2019-2020, Chatmon was featured in a solo exhibition at Fotografiska New York, a branch of the Swedish photography museum Fotografiska in Gramercy Park, Manhattan, New York City. That exhibit highlighted works from her series "Redemption," featuring photographs of young Black girls with a variety of hairstyles -- braids, curls, knots -- and 24-karat gold paint. In 2021, Galerie Myrtis organized another solo exhibition in Baltimore as well as at the Joan Hisaoka Healing Arts Gallery in Washington, DC. That show included the artist’s stark black-and-white photos of her father, James “Rudy” Muckelvene, in the months before his death. The World Gold Council in 2021 produced a video that focused on her use of gold in her art. Chatmon's work has been purchased by the Minneapolis Institute of Art as well as by Beyoncé Knowles, Alicia Keys and CCH Pounder. Chatmon lives in Annapolis with her husband Kartan and three children. References External links Tawny Chatmon's official website 21st-century American photographers 1979 births Living people

Narasimha Nakha Stuti (also popularly Nakha Stuti), is one of the most famous and short Stutis (poems) composed by Sri Madhvacharya in praise of nails of Lord Narasimha written in Sragdhara metre. Stuti means eulogy, singing praise, panegyric and to praise the virtues, deeds and nature of God by realising them in our hearts. In this stuti Madhvacharya eulogised the power of lord Narasimha and his nails. Indologist B. N. K. Sharma says, "According to tradition, Madhva composed these two verses and had them prefixed to his disciple's Vayu Stuti, extolling Madhva in his three 'incarnations', as he did not approve of the disciple's praising him, exclusively. They are now recited as part of the Vayu Stuti, at the beginning and at the end". References Bibliography Dvaita Vedanta Vaishnava texts Hindu devotional texts Hindu texts Sanskrit texts Hymns

The Digital Platform Workers’ Trade Union (, SRDP) is a trade union of internet-based platform workers, including ridesharing and food delivery, in Croatia. It is affiliated with the Union of Autonomous Trade Unions of Croatia. History SRDP was founded in June 2021 to fight for better working conditions in a sector with growing importance in Croatia. Two large problems the union announced it would be tackling were the lack of legislation on platform work and the status of "aggregators", medium-sized businesses who organised workers' access to platforms. The union also cited concerns over sick leave, vacations, accident insurance and the partaking in business risk. In October, SRDP organised a warning strike of Uber drivers after they were unable to speak to a Uber representative after two weeks without pay.

However, Newman batted in the Cambridgeshire first innings, which incurred the protest of his teammate George Tarrant, who refused to continue playing in the match and was absent in Cambridgeshire's first innings and when they followed-on in their second innings. He died in April 1883, aged 43, at Barnwell in Cambridge.

Guido Picelli (9 October 1889 – 5 January 1937) was an Italian Communist politician and anti-fascist militant. He was a founding member of the Arditi del Popolo and a participant in the Spanish Civil War where he died in battle. Biography Early life Born in to a working-class, Picelli worked as a watchmaker and later an actor. He participated in the First World War and obtained the rank of second lieutenant there as well as the Bronze Medal of Military Valor and the bronze medal of the Italian Red Cross. Back in Parma, in 1919 he joined the Italian Socialist Party and founded the local section of the Proletarian League of Veterans. In 1920, he was imprisoned for having tried to prevent the departure of a train of grenadiers towards Albania. In 1921 he was elected deputy to parliament with the Italian Socialist Party. Anti-fascist leader of Italy Picelli was a founding member of the Red Guards in 1920 to defend striking workers against fascist strikebreakers. After the failure of the Red Guards, Picelli became a founder of the Arditi del Popolo, despite the opposition of the Italian Socialist Party. On July 31, 1922, a legal strike was proclaimed throughout Italy by the Alleanza del Lavoro. In the city of Parma Picelli, together with his brother Vittorio led a united anti-fascist front consisting of communists, anarchists, socialists and republicans. Italo Balbo, a leading member of the National Fascist Party was sent to suppress the strike but his Squadristi were repulsed. Eventually marshall law was declared in the city of Parma and the strike was suppressed by the military. After the March on Rome the Arditi was dissolved, however Picelli continued his anti-fascist activities in secrecy. In 1924 he left the PSI and joined the Communist Party and was elected to the parliament. On May 1, 1924, he was arrested a fifth time as a parliamentarian for displaying a large red flag from the balcony of the Chamber of Deputies to protest against the anticipation of Labor Day to April 21. After the kidnapping and disappearance of Giacomo Matteotti, Picelli took part in the Aventine secession. Rome he suffered several attacks by the fascists. In November 1926, following the promulgation of the Fascist laws, Picelli and the other Aventinian deputies were declared forfeited from their parliamentary mandate. Picelli was arrested and sentenced to five years of confinement which he served in Lampedusa and Lipari. On November 9, 1931, he was freed and from Rome, he moved to Milan with an authorization from the head of the police Arturo Bocchini, where he married his partner Paolina Rocchetti. From Milan Picelli expatriated to France. Exile in France and the Soviet Union In July 1932 he was arrested and expelled from France. He took refuge first in Belgium and, later, in the Soviet Union. There he thought "military strategy" at the International Lenin School. He carried out political activity for the Communist International and kept in touch with the Italian exiles and collaborated in political magazines. During his exile, he wrote three revolutionary plays which were performed in Moscow. Picelli became a critic of the political purges within among whose victims were Italian communists, including Dante Corneli, his emigration companion who was accused of Trotskyism. Eventually becoming a suspect himself, in March 1935 he was first fired from school, losing both the vouchers to buy food and the salary to pay the rent and finally he was sent to a factory. Feeling in grave danger Picelli requested the intervention of Palmiro Togliatti with an autograph letter dated 9 March 1935, and kept in the archives of the Comintern. Picelli wrote a letter denouncing Trotskyism and factionalism which was received positively by the Comintern and removed any suspicions of counter-revolutionary activities against him. Spanish Civil War and death July 1936 the Spanish Civil War broke out and Picelli requested to be allowed to leave the Soviet Union, to fight Francoist forces. After a permit denied in September 1936, he later managed to get permission to leave the Soviet Union for Spain, but it was specified that he would represent the Comintern in any way. Picelli left the Soviet Union in October 1936 and reached Paris, where he made contact with Julián Gorkin of the POUM, an anti-Soviet communist party. Gorkin invited him to travel to Spain to take command of a battalion of POUM militiamen. He reached Barcelona and the communist leaders sent him a friend of his, Ottavio Pastore with the task of making him desist from taking command of a battalion of the POUM. Nevertheless, he contacted Andrés Nin, a few days later Picelli enlisted and took command of a column of 500 volunteers of the IX battalion of the International Brigades (so-called "Colonna Picelli"). In Albacete, Picelli trained the volunteers of his column for the Madrid front. On December 13, 1936, following the agreement signed in Paris for the formation of a single Italian anti-fascist legion under the political patronage of the socialist, communist and republican parties and with the help of the organizations adhering to the Italian committee for Spain, the Colonna Picelli it was incorporated into the Garibaldi Brigade. Picelli was appointed deputy commander of the battalion and of the first company of the Italian formation. On 1 January 1937 in command of the entire Garibaldi Battalion. He conquered Mirabueno, a strategic village on the Guadalajara front. Four days later, on January 5, 1937, at the age of 47, Picelli was fatally shot by a burst of enemy machine guns during a fight on the Mirabueno front while attempting to place a machine gun. His body was therefore abandoned and recovered only later due to the danger represented by the presence of Francoist positions. The Spanish Republican government held a state funeral for him in Barcelona, Madrid and Valencia.

IRAS 18357-0604 is a yellow hypergiant (YHG) star located in the constellation of Scutum, estimated to be about 19,600 light years, or 6,000 parsecs, away. IRAS 18357-0604 is remarkably similar to IRC +10420, another yellow hypergiant in the constellation of Aquila. Position A distance of 6,000 parsecs (inferred from the systemic velocity of the star) would place IRAS 18357-0604 within the red supergiant (RSG) "association" in the Scutum-Centaurus arm, which contains clusters such as RSGC1 and RSGC2. The luminosity derived from the distance is consistent with IRAS 18357-0604 being formed from the same star formation burst as that which created the red supergiants in the area. The star is also located about 14 arcminutes from RSGC2, so the possibility of it being a runaway from the cluster cannot be excluded, but replicating its properties in such a scenario would require an unexpectedly extreme mass-loss rate during its preceding red supergiant phase. Properties IRAS 18357-0604 is likely to be a very luminous star, like all YHGs. Assuming a distance of 6,000 parsecs, the star would have a bolometric luminosity of about . Based on its spectrum, the star likely has a temperature of about . Applying the Stefan-Boltzmann law to these parameters means that the star has a radius of about . Evolutionary Status In the RSG agglomerate of which IRAS 18357-0604 may be a part, RSGC1 and RSGC2 represent the youngest and oldest clusters in the area, suggesting that star formation in the area peaked over the last 10-20 million years, which means that evolved stars in the area have initial masses between and . If this age and mass range is applicable to the wider RSG association, the parameters of IRAS 18357-0604 are consistent with membership of the association. Theoretical models of rotating stars are able to reproduce IRAS 18357-0604's parameters assuming an initial mass of and an age comparable to that of RSGC1 (~12 Myr). If IRAS 18357's initial mass is closer to , it may be the progenitor of a core-collapse type IIb supernova, and it might explode in the relatively near future. Instead, if it's initial mass is closer to , it may evolve through an LBV stage and get slightly hotter before exploding in a type IIb supernova.

8th Summit of the Non-Aligned Movement on 1-6 September 1986 in Harare, Zimbabwe was the conference of heads of state or government of the Non-Aligned Movement. 101 countries took part in the summit, 51 of which were African countries. Explicitly expressed South–South cooperation call appeared for the first time in the 1986 NAM final declaration. The issue of Apartheid regime in neighboring South Africa was the dominant issue on the agenda of the summit. At the same time, Pretoria tried to influence some NAM members to send low ranking delegates to the summit in Harare. All participating states unanimously adopted a charter on economic sanctions against South African racist regime. Oliver Tambo called Harare the capital city of the anti-colonial struggle and the city where the apartheid system will meet its day of reckoning. United States announced the cut-off of development aid to Zimbabwe while the event was taking place. The event was mostly ignored by the western media while it was taking place. Similarly to an earlier NAM summit in Lusaka, the venue for the event was built by the Energoprojekt holding construction company. At the same time, SFR Yugoslavia which was historically one of the most prominent members of the movement, was now faced with post-Josip Broz Tito complex internal federal power-sharing which negatively influenced the delegation leadership. Yugoslavia was represented by under prepared Sinan Hasani from the Socialist Autonomous Province of Kosovo who was generally unknown among the other Yugoslav NAM partners and who heavily relied on materials prepared by the Federal Secretary of Foreign Affairs. In this context leader of Libya Muammar Gaddafi attracted the most attention among the guests at the summit. Libyan delegation arrived to Harare with 250 members, circulated the idea about country's association with the Warsaw Pact which was opposed by other NAM countries, and used strong Anti-Americanism in its statements. This development increased fears among the core members of the movement that the progressive countries will try once again to achieve their ideas about collective NAM "natural alliance" from the 6th Summit in Havana which were back then prevented by Julius Nyerere, Josip Broz Tito and some other leaders. Progressive members proposed or supported North Korea as a host for the next foreign ministers conference and Nicaragua as a host of the next summit. To avoid uncomfortable situation in which countries will either support or oppose sole Nicaraguan candidature, Indonesia submitted strategic application to host the next summit which led to the absence of the consensus until the following meeting. India, Zambia and Iraq at the same time strongly opposed the idea on foreign ministers conference in North Korea. The compromise solution was reached by Yugoslavia, India, Cuba and Zambia in which North Korea secured the right to host a special meeting on economic issues while the 1988 Non-Aligned Foreign Ministers Conference was organized in Nicosia, Cyprus.

The Quinta do Mocho murals are a public art project in a housing estate in Sacavém, north east of Lisbon, Portugal. The project was initiated in 2014 and as of 2018 consisted of 94 large scale murals on buildings. The Quinta do Mocho social housing project, consisting of four-story buildings, was built in the 1990s to house 3,000 people, mostly from former Portuguese colonies in Africa—Cape Verde, Guinea and Angola. Social exclusion, high unemployment and poor housing standards contributed to the area having high crime rates and various social problems. In order to improve the district's image, in 2014 local officials invited Portuguese and foreign artists to paint murals on its buildings. The municipality has since stopped organising the project, however residents now maintain it and offer guided tours to visitors. According to local officials, since the murals were painted, a bus line now serves the area, cultural events have multiplied, and the crime rate has fallen.

Strengthened parliamentary system (Turkish: Güçlendirilmiş parlamenter sistem), also referred to as enhanced and strengthened parliamentary system (Turkish: İyileştirilmiş ve güçlendirilmiş parlamenter sistem), is a form of government conceived by certain Turkish opposition parties, such as the Republican People's Party, the Good Party, the Democracy and Progress Party, the Future Party, the Felicity Party and the Democrat Party, as an alternative to the presidential system effectuated by the ruling People's Alliance following the 2017 Turkish constitutional referendum. Being rooted in parliamentary system, it envisages a complete overhauling of Turkey's system of government. Although the details of the proposed system are yet to be disclosed, parties have put forth that it constitutes the restoration of the rule of law, reinforcement of parliamentary authority, and extensive restraints on presidential powers. Background After the steep relapse in Turkey's economy following the 2018 general election, opposition parties began to regard the presidential system as the source of the country's economic and political crises. Parties decided to use the prefix "strengthened" so that it could be discerned from the parliamentary system nurtured by the pre-amended Constitution of 1982. Opposition parties had already been voicing their support for the formulation of a new parliamentary system, albeit singly. The Future Party, Good Party, and DEVA had announced their own manifestos for a new system of government, accompanied by certain academic publications and proposals. Deputy leaders of CHP, Good Party, DEVA, GP, SP, and DP began holding joint discussions at the parliament, eventually reaching a consensus on a draft for the manifesto of their conception. The draft, which is made up of five chapters, was completed in December 2021, and is expected to be signed by the leaders of all aforementioned parties once its redaction is complete.[needs update] Joint manifesto The manifesto is composed of five main categories: Introduction, Legislative, Executive, Judiciary, and the Fundamental Principles of the Democratic System. In order to settle the matter of governmental instability, which was one of AKP's main arguments that pretensioned their hand in the referendum that took place in 2017, strengthened parliamentary model features a constructive vote of no confidence. Hence, it obliges parliamentarians who overthrow a government to replace it with a new one by placing confidence in a successor. In addition to reforming parliamentary procedure, the proposed model makes it a necessity for governments to be formed in parliament, and necessitates the President to sever their ties with their party after they are elected by parliament. The joint manifest also includes thorough reforms regarding the judicial system, press freedom, and public procurement. References Political terminology Politics of Turkey
The Government Palace (, ), known before 1962 as Gouvernement général, is the office of the Prime Minister of Algeria and a major public building in Algiers. At the time of its inauguration in 1933, with a surface of 33,000 m2, it was the largest administrative building of the entire French state. History The project to build a new seat for the government of French Algeria was formulated in the context of the 100th anniversary of the Invasion of Algiers in 1830. The complex was built between 1929 and 1934 on a design by architect Jacques Guiauchain, the grandson of one of French Algeria's first colonial architects, , and eventually inaugurated in 1933. It encloses an entertainment and cinema venue, the , which was built in 1929 and is now named after Ibn Khaldun. The building was ransacked by a mob on , during the May 1958 crisis. On , newly arrived Prime Minister of France Charles de Gaulle gave a major speech from the Government Palace's balcony, where he uttered the ambiguous sentence that immediately became iconic, ("I have understood you"). After the country's independence in 1962 following the Algerian War, the building became the office and residence of the Prime Minister of Algeria. It is also the home of the . Urban setting The Government Palace crowns the , a monumental perspective created in the early 20th century on former military grounds, which also includes the Grande Poste d'Alger. The plaza or Forum in front of the Government Palace, formerly an open space but now closed to the public, overlooks Algiers with a broad view towards the sea. Bordering that forum is also the Central Library Arts And Culture, a public library. Just below it, in a public garden, stands the Memorial to the Liberation of Algeria.

The Palace of the Council of the Nation is the home of the Council of the Nation, the upper house of the Algerian Parliament, in Algiers, Algeria. It is located on on the Algiers waterfront. History The building was built in 1865 on a design by architects Louis Clovis Lefèvre and , as the home of the Algiers tax and post office (). Between 1912 and 1920, it was comprehensively remodeled by architect Gabriel Darbéda, who also worked on the Summer Palace at the same time, in order to host the , a limited-purpose assembly with power over local fiscal affairs but no broad legislative mandate. Between 1948 and 1956 the , which succeeded the délégations financières, was located in the building. The building has been the home of the Council of the Nation since its establishment in 1997, after decades of unicameralism following the Algerian War and the country's independence in 1962. In the 2010s, plans were considered to relocate the Council of the Nation and the People's National Assembly in a new Algerian Parliament complex, to be built northeast of Les Fusillés Station in the waterfront neighborhood of Hussein Dey.

He specialized in meteorology during the war and participated in the Normandy Landings. He became Director of Meteorological Services and reorganized the Belgian air force. He came back as a professor of astronomy in 1959. He has 180 published articles, seminars, courses, and lectures in meteorology, astronomy, and other scientific disciplines. Early life and education Odon Godart was born in Farciennes, Wallonia, Belgium, on August 21, 1913. After his first studies in Greco-latin Humanities at the Jesuit College in Charleroi, he was granted a graduate degree in Mathematical Sciences by the Catholic University of Louvain in 1935. Career Early He later became the assistant of the priest and astrophysicist Monsignor Georges Lemaître, a professor who specialized in the origin of the Big Bang Theory of the expanding universe. In 1938, after this stage, he moved to The United States of America to do research on cosmic rays at the Harvard Observatory and MIT. During one of his visits to Hollywood, he met Paulette Goddard, the actress of Modern Times along with Charlie Chaplin, who will inform him of the beginning of the war in Europe. World War II Odon Godart decided to return to Europe to embark on a fishing boat. Later, he enlisted in the Canadian Army and, finally, he went to England to work for the meteorological service of the British Army, taking soundings at the North sea. In 1943, he participated in the bombing raids over Germany where he was seriously injured. During his three months in the hospital, he improves his meteorological studies. He drafted the manuscript of On the Introduction and Use of Isobaric Coordinates, How to coordinate Meteorology and its Isobaric Consequences. The idea was not well received by his superior R. C. Sutcliffe, but its value was finally recognized. This concept allows the use of pressure for the analysis instead of altitude, which simplified the equations of the atmospheric behavior, and later on, it will be used in weather prediction. The arrangements for the Normandy landing were on track, but a date had yet to be chosen. General Eisenhower requested that the weather be predicted two weeks in advance, a task which was virtually impossible to do in those days by the three meteorology groups, Royal Navy, Met Office and USAAF working independently with James Stagg, Chief weather forecaster to assist Eisenhower on the planning of Operation Overlord. Originally, D-day was going to be on June 5, 1944, but due to inclement weather, it was suggested to change to the next day. At 4:30, in the morning of June 4, the forecast provided by the three meteorologist groups contributed significantly to Eisenhower's decision to move the mission on June 6. After the war Then, Odon Godart arrived at Normandy and was responsible for the reorganization of the meteorological service of the Belgian Air Force where he was appointed director. In 1950, now settled in Belgium, he married and had 5 children. In 1959, he worked as a professor at the University of Louvain, and taught astronomy and published several articles in Lemaître about astronomy and cosmology, among other topics. He was President of the Royal Belgian Society of Astronomy, Meteorology and Physics of the Globe. Odon Godart died in his hometown, Farciennes, Wallonia, on April 18, 1996. Astronomy In 1965, Odon Godart announced the discovery of cosmic background radiation by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson to his former colleague Georges Lemaître, who was very ill by then. This missing echo of the formation of the world, as Lemaître poetically called it, confirmed the cosmological scenario of the Big Bang, of which Lemaître was one of the first discoverers between 1920 and 1930. The asteroid (7043) Godart discovered in 1934 was named in his honor. Publications Les prévisions météorologiques britanniques pendant la guerre 1940-1945', Ciel et Terre, vol. 102, 1986.

Nenets Herding Laika (Russian: Ненецкая лайка) also known as the reindeer spitz, are an aboriginal spitz breed of dog originating from Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, Russia. They were originally bred to herd reindeer and hunt game for the Nenets people and are widely distributed along the Russia’s Arctic coast. While most famous as the progenitor of the Samoyed dog, Nenets Herding Laika almost died out during the Soviet era due to lack of interest in preserving genetically purebred examples. In 1994, the Russian Kynologic Federation (RKF) approved the first official standard of the breed. Description Nenets Herding Laika are medium-sized dogs with a thick double coats that are either solid or bicolored, coming in grey, tan, black or white. They come in two coat lengths, a long-haired coat called erre and a short-haired coat called yando. History The Nenets Laika is one of the oldest dog breeds, surviving from the Paleolithic era to the present day almost unchanged. Prized for their efficiency as both a reindeer herding dog and a hunter, they quickly spread across the Arctic circle, stretching from the Kola Peninsula to Chukotka. Several arctic explorers would use Nenets Herding Laika in their travels, most notably Russian painter and explorer Alexandr Borisov and Norwegian explorer and scientist Fridtjof Nansen. The all-white surviving dogs from Nansen’s Fram expedition would form the foundation stock of the Samoyed. As infrastructure and mechanized travel made Arctic regions more accessible, non-native dogs began to intermix with the Nenets Herding Laika population. In Soviet times, it was widely believed there were no pure Nenets Herding Laika remaining. Fortunately, several small populations were discovered and efforts are underway to preserve the breed. There are currently estimated to be around 2000 purebred Nenets Herding Laika herding reindeer in Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. In recent years, Nenets Herding Laika have shown proficiency in search and rescue. The Sulimov jackal-dog hybrids used for bomb detection in Moscow International Airport are part Nenets Herding Dog. In 1994, the Russian Kynologic Federation (RKF) approved the first official standard of the breed. is still not registered in the catalog of the International Cynological Federation (FCI). References
