On 13 March 2021, a Class 507 electric multiple unit operated by Merseyrail collided with the buffer stop at station, Merseyside, United Kingdom. The cause was found to be that the driver of the train was using a mobile phone whilst driving. The distraction led him to enter the station at excessive speed. He was sacked and prosecuted, pleading guilty to a charge of endangering the safety of people on the railway.
Background
The layout at Kirkby station is unusual. The station opened in 1848 as a through station on the Liverpool and Bury Railway between and . In 1977, for operational reasons, the line was split at Kirkby, with the two ends facing each other on a single extended platform. Buffer stops are provided on the end of each line, with a concrete section between the two.
Accident
At 18:52 on 13 March 2021, a Class 507 electric multiple unit collided with the buffers. The train went through the buffer stop and collided with a bridge. The train formed the 18:35 service from station to Kirkby. There were two crew and twelve passengers on board. The emergency services were alerted at 19:01 and arrived at 19:05. Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service, the North West Ambulance Service and Merseyside Police all attended the scene. The unit involved was 507 006. All fourteen people on board the train were treated at the scene by paramedics. The driver was taken to hospital with minor injuries.
As a result of the accident, services were suspended between and Kirkby. Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service had handed over control of the scene to the British Transport Police (BTP) by 21:40. The next day, replacement bus services were set up between Kirkby and . As a result of the accident, unit 507 006 was withdrawn from service. It was scrapped in September 2021. Damage to the station cost £450,000 to repair. The station reopened about two weeks later.
Investigations
The Rail Accident Investigation Branch opened an investigation into the accident. The Office of Rail and Road and BTP also opened investigations into the accident. The BTP investigation found that the driver had been using WhatsApp on his mobile phone 26 seconds before the accident. The train was travelling at where the speed limit was . Merseyrail's policy was that trains would enter Kirkby station at . The train was still doing when it collided with the buffer stop.
Prosecution
On 31 March, it was reported that the driver had been arrested by British Transport Police on suspicion of endangering the safety of the railway. He was released on bail, then charged on 20 January 2022. Merseyrail dismissed the driver in September 2021. At his trial on 8 February 2022, the driver pleaded guilty to endangering the safety of passengers on the railway and was convicted. Sentencing was adjourned to a later date.

2 Samuel 9 is the ninth chapter of the Second Book of Samuel in the Old Testament of the Christian Bible or the second part of Books of Samuel in the Hebrew Bible. According to Jewish tradition the book was attributed to the prophet Samuel, with additions by the prophets Gad and Nathan, but modern scholars view it as a composition of a number of independent texts of various ages from c. 630–540 BCE. This chapter contains the account of David's reign in Jerusalem. This is within a section comprising 2 Samuel 9–20 and continued to 1 Kings 1–2 which deal with the power struggles among David's sons to succeed David's throne until 'the kingdom was established in the hand of Solomon' (1 Kings 2:46).
Text
This chapter was originally written in the Hebrew language. It is divided into 13 verses.
Textual witnesses
Some early manuscripts containing the text of this chapter in Hebrew are of the Masoretic Text tradition, which includes the Codex Cairensis (895), Aleppo Codex (10th century), and Codex Leningradensis (1008). Fragments containing parts of this chapter in Hebrew were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls including 4Q51 (4QSam; 100–50 BCE) with extant verses 8–10.
Extant ancient manuscripts of a translation into Koine Greek known as the Septuagint (originally was made in the last few centuries BCE) include Codex Vaticanus (B; B; 4th century) and Codex Alexandrinus (A; A; 5th century).
Analysis
The structure of this chapter is as follows:
A. David's intention (9:1)
B. David speaks to Ziba (9:2–5)
C. Mephibosheth does obeisance (9:6)
D. David fulfills his covenant with Jonathan (9:7)
C'. Mephibosheth does obeisance (9:8)
B'. David speaks to Ziba (9:9–11)
A'. David's intention is accomplished (9:12–13)
This chapter is connected with events concerning the house of Saul and the death of Ishbosheth in 2 Samuel 2–4, but more strongly with the story of the Gibeonites' revenge in 2 Samuel 21:1–14, which should precede the accommodation of Mephibosheth at David's table.
David inquires about the house of Saul (9:1–4)
The section begins with David asking about 'showing kindness to the house of Saul for Jonathan's sake' (verse 1), which is based on his promises to Jonathan in their covenant before YHWH () and his promise to Saul that he 'would not cut off his descendants' (). The passage contains a flashback to a time early in David's reign (c. 999 BCE according to Steinmann), placed in this chapter in anticipation of the events in 1 Samuel 16 and 1 Samuel 19 concerning Ziba and Mephibosheth. David did not have much information about Saul's house since his escape from that house (c. 1015 BCE), whereas his last contact with Jonathan was at Horesh (1 Samuel 23:16–18; c. 1013–1012 BCE) about one year after Mephibosheth's birth. David's official knew about Saul's servant, Ziba, who had the information about Saul's descendants (verse 2). Ziba only identified Mephibosheth as the surviving member of the house of Saul, because Saul's sons from concubines and the grandsons through his daughter Merab (cf. 2 Samuel 21:8) were not considered heirs to Saul's house.
Verse 1
And David said, "Is there still anyone left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan's sake?"
"Kindness": in the sense of "covenant faithfulness".
David and Mephibosheth (9:5–13)
The presence of a Saulide in David's household emphasizes that David was dealing honorably with Jonathan's descendant, using the word 'kindness' (khesed), which occurs in verses 1, 3, and 7, to conform with Jonathan's appeal to 'show me the kindness (khesed')' of the Lord' in . David granted Mephibosheth son of Jonathan special patronage (verse 7), at royal expense (v. 11), his grandfather's property restored to him (verse 7) and arrangements were made for Ziba to act as estate manager to provide for the family (verse 10).
Saul's estate (verse 7) was a crown property, so it should belong to David after he became king, but at that time some may also be still the property of remaining members in Saul's house, including his children of concubines, relatives and the family of his daughters. Merab, Saul's oldest daughter, was with her husband, Adriel, in Meholah (1 Samuel 14:49; 18:17–19), whereas Michal, Saul's other daughter, resided with her husband, king David, in Jerusalem (2 Samuel 6:16–23), so some lands in other areas may have been maintained by caretakers, including Ziba. This could be how David's officials were able to trace Ziba. Now David could declare that all the estate should be given to Mephibosheth as Saul's sole legitimate heir.
Verse 5Then King David sent and brought him out of the house of Machir the son of Ammiel, from Lo Debar.''
"Machir": a valued member in Saul's house who later also showed kindness to David during Absalom's rebellion (1 Samuel 17:27–29).

Luigi Viviani (Crema, Lombardy, 23 November 1903 – Athens, 27 September 1943) was an Italian engineer and soldier, posthumously awarded the Gold Medal of Military Valour.
Biography
Luigi Viviani, fourth son of Giovanni and Rosa Fusar Poli, attended primary school and gymnasium in Crema. He then moved to Milan to attend the liceo classico (classical high school) and eventually enrolled in the faculty of civil engineering, graduating on 30 December 1926.
Activity in Azione Cattolica
Viviani's father, a physician, was of liberal ideas while his mother, a believer, took care of the religious education of Louis and his three older brothers. In 1920 he joined the Azione Cattolica (Catholic Action) of Crema. During his studies he actively participated in the initiatives of the Avanguardia Giovanile Cattolica (Catholic Youth Vanguard) of Milan. He began to write a diary that remains the main document of his daily life, in which he noted, among other things, the clashes, including physical confrontations, between the young people of Azione Cattolica and the fascist squads in the years 1920–1921. In 1923 he became president of the Gioventù Cattolica (Catholic Youth) and in 1926 diocesan president of Crema. In 1931 he experienced struggles with the fascist regime that wanted to suppress Azione Cattolica and was also threatened with arrest. On 30 May 1931, the Gioventù Cattolica Italiana (Italian Catholic Youth) and the Gioventù Femminile Cattolica Italiana (Italian Catholic Female Youth) were dissolved by prefectural decree. Also, the assets of the offices of the "Belvedere" and the "circolo del Duomo" in Crema were seized. As a result of the prohibitions on gatherings among young people, both in private and in public, the direction of diocesan Azione Cattolica was entrusted to Bishop Monsignor Marcello Mimmi on 1 June 1931.
On 23 March 1934 Viviani became engaged to Jolanda Barbaglio, the diocesan delegate of the Gioventù Femminile, and they were married the following 24 April. The wedding was celebrated by the bishop of Crema, Monsignor Francesco Maria Franco, in the chapel of the Bishop's Palace. In 1937 his mother Rosa died and in 1939 his father Giovanni died.
Military service
In 1927 Viviani began his military service and carried out his first appointment in Florence. He was then recalled in the autumn of 1936, at the end of the Second Italo-Ethiopian War. On 25 June 1941 he was again recalled to the army due to World War II and, as a lieutenant of Complement in the artillery, was deployed in the Aegean Sea on the island of Rhodes. Two years passed without fighting and in June 1943, with the rank of captain, he commanded the 56th Position Anti-Aircraft Group (86th Group, 232nd Battery 90/53).
After the Armistice of Cassibile, Captain Viviani's battery was attacked by former German allies and on 17 September 1943, at Kalathos Airfield, the Italian military was forced to surrender. Viviani was identified, transferred and imprisoned with some comrades in the Averoff prison in Athens. He was shot in the early hours of the day on September 27, 1943.

Louis Herman Ahrens (24 April 1918 5 September 1990) was a South African born geochemist, academic, and author. Best known for his work in the 1950s in establishing a method of using rubidium–strontium dating as a means of geochronology.
Early life
Louis Ahrens was born in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa in April 1918 and a descendant of Lutheran missionaries to the country. He was the son of F.W. Ahrens, a district magistrate and would travel with his father in South Africa and South-West Africa. Barely obtaining a matric, he attended the University of Natal and graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree in geology and chemistry in 1939. He would start his career in Johannesburg in 1940 at the National Institute of Metallurgy (then Government Metallurgical Laboratory) as an analytical chemist with emphasis on optical spectrochemical analysis. During this time he worked on his doctorate thesis in chemistry spectrochemical analysis which was granted in 1944 from the University of Pretoria. In 1945 he became a senior chemist at the Government Metallurgical Laboratory.
Academic career
In 1946, he was awarded a post doctoral research fellowship from the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) and travelled overseas first visiting Cambridge, Oxford and Durham universities laboratories and then on to conduct research at Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Cabot Spectagraphic Laboratory. In 1949, he published a paper in the Bulletin of the Geological Society of America the establish the method of using Rubidium–strontium dating as a viable means of geochronology. In 1950, after his fellowship expired, he obtained the post of Associate Professor of Geochemistry. In 1951, Ahrens published a paper on the behavior of silicate powders in d.c arcs.
He moved to Oxford University, England in 1954 obtaining the position as a reader in minerology and assisted Lawrence Wager to improve the university's geochemical and geochronological research. There he developed a new table of ionic radii.
In 1956, Ahrens returned to South Africa taking up the chair in chemistry at the University of Cape Town and developed the department of geochemistry as a separate department from geology by 1961 and became its professor of geochemistry. He retired from the university in 1978 due to ill health but continued in a role as special senior research fellow until 1983. He was a visiting professor of Geochemistry from 1962 to 1963 at MIT and a guest professor at the University of Göttingen in 1961. He would publish four books and wrote and co-authored over two hundred research papers.
During the Apollo program, Ahrens and his research team at the University of Cape Town received moon rock samples for geochemical analyses. This was out of recognition of his work done on analyzing meteorites in the 1950s.
Marriage
Ahrens married Evelyn Millicent McCulloch in 1941. They had three children, Yolanda, Wendy and Ian.
Death
Ahrens died in Cape Town, South Africa in September 1990.

Construction and commissioning
The ship was built in 1981 at the Sun Shipbuilding, Chester, Pennsylvania. She was put into the service of Waterman Steamship Corp. as John B. Waterman.
In 1984, she was acquired and chartered by the Navy under a long-term contract. The ship underwent conversion at the National Steel and Shipbuilding, San Diego until October 1984. Later that year, put into service as SS Sgt. Matej Kocak (AK-3005). Sgt. Matej Kocak was put into the Maritime Prepositioning Ship Squadron 2, based at Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean to support the US Marine Corps Expeditionary Brigade.
She was later transferred to the Military Sealift Command Surge Sealift as USNS Sgt. Matej Kocak (T-AK-3005) from 2 October 2012. At 11:30 a.m. of 22 January 2015, she ran aground approximately six nautical miles off the coast of Uruma, Okinawa. She was refloated on 3 February later that year.
Crowley Government Services Inc. was awarded $14,513,105 to maintain USNS LCPL Roy M. Wheat (T-AK-3016), USNS PFC Eugene A. Obregon (T-AK-3006), USNS Maj. Stephen W. Pless (T-AK-3007) and Sgt. Matej Kocak on 29 September 2020.

Tick, Tick... Boom! (Soundtrack from the Netflix Film) is the soundtrack for the American biographical musical drama film Tick, Tick... Boom!. Directed by Lin-Manuel Miranda in his feature directorial debut, it is the adaptation of Jonathan Larson's musical of the same name. The tracks were performed by the film's ensemble cast consisted of Andrew Garfield, Robin de Jesús, Alexandra Shipp, Joshua Henry, Judith Light, and Vanessa Hudgens. All Jonathan Larson songs in the film were produced by Alex Lacamoire, Bill Sherman, and Kurt Crowley (who cameos in the film as the rehearsal pianist for Superbia, Francis). The songs were mixed by Greg Wells, and music supervised by Stephen Gizicki.
The Tick, Tick... Boom! soundtrack was released for streaming and digital download on November 12, 2021, by Masterworks Broadway on the same day as the film's theatrical release. A physical CD was launched on December 3, 2021. Two singles "30/90" was released via streaming on October 5, 2021 and "Louder Than Words" was also released as a single along with the album's pre-order date on October 22, 2021.
Production
Levenson and Miranda felt it was important for the film to play with the credit "score by Jonathan Larson" and so sourced many songs from the Library of Congress archives, including several that had never received an official release. This includes three songs from Superbia not included in the soundtrack: "Ever After" (used to underscore the focus group meeting), "LCD Readout", and "Sextet". Kurt Crowley released a solo arrangement of the latter featuring Joshua Henry during the COVID-induced break in the film's production. After considerable fan demand, the newly titled "Sextet Montage" was released as a single on February 4, 2022 in honor of what would have been Larson's 62nd birthday.
The film also includes three stand-alone songs by Larson: "Rhapsody", which plays in the background of Susan's dance recital and over the film's credits; "Out of My Dreams" covered by Veronica Vazquez, which can be heard when Jonathan meets Susan on the roof; and "It Only Takes a Few", covered by The Mountain Goats, which plays over the credits. Of these, only "Out of My Dreams" and "It Only Takes a Few" were released on the film's soundtrack.

William "Bill" Botten (19 May 1935) is a British illustrator, designer and artist known for the design of over 250 book covers.
Early life
Botten was born in London, England, and was evacuated to the Buckinghamshire countryside for the duration of the Second World War. He left school aged 16 for his first job as a studio boy at advertising agency George Street & Company in the City of London. He returned to Streets after National Service in the Royal Air Force in Iraq.
Career
After working as a designer at magazine publishers Fleetway Publications, London, he became Art Director at Sphere Books, a new paperback book publishers set up by Thomson Corporation in 1965. After a brief partnership with fellow designer Wilson Buchanan, he freelanced full time producing magazine adverts, exhibition stand designs and in the 1980s illustrations for the Avon Products cosmetics company. His most distinctive artistic legacy lies in the book jackets he designed for UK publishers, David Bruce and Watson, Hutchinson and Jonathan Cape. Many of these books are collectable and some command high prices.
Jonathan Cape
Botten produced 120 hardback book covers from the mid 60s to the mid-1980s commissioned by Tony Coldwell at Jonathan Cape. Cape had a reputation for publishing first editions of important authors. Botten designed and illustrated the cover for Salman Rushdie’s breakthrough novel Midnight’s Children. He took the photograph for Kingsley Amis’s novel Girl, 20 in his suburban home’s garage which he transformed into a photographic studio with a neighbour as model. The writer Ian McEwan’s first collection of short stories First Love, Last Rites is described as having “Beardsleyesque elegance”. Cape commissioned six covers for titles by science fiction author J G Ballard between 1973 and 1982. The covers of first editions of Ballard’s Crash and Hello America show Botten’s skill in airbrush technique. They also show his attention to how the book’s spine appears on the shelf with his jacket art often extending on to the back cover. The author Brian Aldiss liked Botten’s cover for the first edition of New Arrivals, Old Encounters. He always read the book before designing the cover.
James Bond
Jonathan Cape published Ian Fleming’s James Bond novels and subsequently Bond books written by other authors. Bill was asked to follow the style of Richard Chopping, designer of the original Fleming novels such as From Russia with Love (1957) and The Man with the Golden Gun (1965). Botten produced artwork for two novels by John Gardner: For Special Services (1982) and Icebreaker (1983) in Chopping’s style. When Christopher Wood’s novelisation of the screenplay for James Bond, The Spy Who Love Me (1977) was published by Jonathan Cape, Botten broke free of that earlier genre and produced a large oil painting which referenced the Pre-Raphaelite style. The subsequent novel of the film James Bond and Moonraker (1979) was in a different style again, using artists gouache.
Bill Botten - Artist
The commercial work earned him a living. His own work covers figures, abstracts and often surreal humour.

The Tuttle Capital Short Innovation ETF (SARK) is an American inverse exchange-traded fund (ETF) listed on the Nasdaq. The ETF launched in November 2021 and is designed to provide returns inverse, on a daily basis, of the ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK), an actively managed ETF by Cathie Wood's Ark Invest. It is the first ETF in the United States to provide inverse exposure to another ETF. It uses swap contracts rather than short selling to achieve inverse exposure to ARKK.
The Short Innovation ETF is unique in seeking inverse performance of ARKK, an actively managed portfolio of stocks, in contrast to other inverse ETFs which bet against a particular stock market index or industry classification. Ben Johnson, director of global ETF research for Morningstar, described such a product as "unprecedented." In January 2022, Mad Money host Jim Cramer highlighted the ETF as seeking to benefit from the weakness in growth-oriented stocks whose performance have struggled in recent months. In a November 2021 interview with Bloomberg News, Wood responded to SARK and short sellers of ARKK, saying "This is what makes a market, right? I never worry about anyone shorting the stocks underlying Ark or with this new ETF," adding that if Ark Invest succeeds, investors betting against ARKK would have to cover their short positions, creating demand for Ark funds.
Tuttle Capital Management filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to launch its Short Innovation ETF under the stock ticker SARK in August 2021, following a period during which Ark Invest was unable to produce high returns for investors. Amidst the outbreak of COVID-19, ARKK was one of the top-performing ETFs in 2020, but it greatly underperformed the market in 2021 amidst a shift in investor preference away from technology stocks. When SARK launched in November 2021, ARKK had a short interest of 17.3%, up from 2% in early 2021, indicating negative sentiment for the portfolio. Matthew Tuttle, CEO of Tuttle Capital Management, argued that the company's ETF was superior to short selling ARKK because it allows investors to avoid short squeezes and margin calls.
The ETF had $5 million in assets at inception. It experienced a trading volume of $843,000 on its first day of trading. As of January 2022, the ETF had $234 million in assets, about $200 million of which came from investor inflows.had returned around 50% since its inception, amidst continued declines in stock performance of high-growth companies associated with rising Treasury yields.

Şehzade Ahmed Tevhid (; 30 November 1904 – 24 April 1966) was an Ottoman prince, the third son of Şehzade Mehmed Seyfeddin, and the grandson of Sultan Abdulaziz.
Biography
Şehzade Mahmud Şevket was born on 30 November 1905 in his father's villa in Küçük Çamlıca, Üsküdar. His father was Şehzade Mehmed Seyfeddin, son of Sultan Abdulaziz and Gevheri Kadın, and his mother was Nervaliter Hanım. He had a twin sister, Gevheri Sultan a brother, Şehzade Mahmud Şevket, one year elder than him.
Şevket began his education in the princes school located in the Ihlamur Pavilion. On 5 June 1918, he was enrolled in the Imperial Naval School located on Heybeliada Island. On 9 July 1918, he was given the rank of junior officer in the navy. However, a few months later, his education in the naval school ended, and he was sent back to Ihlamur Pavilion for military training. However, after the Armistice of Mudros in October 1918, his education in the Ihlamur Pavilion ended. In April 1922, his education in the naval school also ended because he did not took his lessons regularly, and it was decided that he would be educated by private teachers.
At the exile of the imperial family in March 1924, Tevhide, and his family moved to Beirut, Lebanon, then to Rome, Italy, and finally to Cimiez, Nice, France. They bought a villa near the Villa Carabacel which belonged to Seniha Sultan, daughter of Sultan Abdulmejid I. Here his father died in 1927. In 1940, Tevhid settled in Cairo, Egypt. He died unmarried on 24 April 1966 at the age of sixty-one in Beirut, Lebanon, and was buried there.

The sums of four cubes problem is to ask whether any rational integer is the sum of four cubes of rational integers.
By putting X = T, Y = T, Z = - T + 1 in the identity
we get the identity
which shows that in any ring, any multiple of 6 (i.e. any element of this ring of the form 6a, a being itself an element of the ring) is sum of four cubes.
Since every rational integer is congruent in ℤ to its own cube modulo 6, it follows that every rational integer is the sum of five cubes of rational integers.
According to a conjecture that is still open, any rational integer would be the sum of four cubes of rational integers.
In 1966, V. A. Demjanenko proved that any rational integer that is congruent neither to 4 nor to - 4 modulo 9 is the sum of four cubes of rational integers. For this, he used in particular the following identities:
These identities (and those derived from them by passing to opposites) immediately show that any rational integer which is congruent neither to 4 nor to -4 modulo 9 and is congruent neither to 2 nor to -2 modulo 18 is a sum of four cubes of rational integers. Using more subtle reasonings, Demjanenko proved that rational integers congruent to 2 or to - 2 modulo 18 are also sums of four cubes of rational integers.
The problem therefore only arises for rational integers congruent to 4 or to -4 modulo 9. We have for example

Twelve Thousand is a 1927 play by German playwright Bruno Frank, published originally under its German title, Zwölftausend. It is a suspenseful tale of the time of Frederick the Great. The premise revolves around the efforts of the British government in the 18th century to secure mercenaries from Germany to augment British troops in the war to put down the American Revolution. The play is one of Frank's lesser known works, but it has had some success in the theatre and also as a BBC television play in 1950.
Plot
Wilhelm Pederit is private secretary to a German prince. Pederit has raised himself in status from the peasantry, wherein his two brothers still labor. His brothers have contempt for him for his "cushy" job and for his inattention to their farm and their poverty. Pederit takes dictation for an agreement between the prince and Faucitt, an emissary from the king of England, whereby the prince will sell twelve thousand of his male citizens to the British, who will use them as mercenaries in the fight the rebels attempting independence in America. Pederit learns that his two brothers are among those being conscripted, and while he feigns indifference, he actually hopes to find means to save them from their fate. Nothing seems possible until the Baroness of Spangenberg, the prince's mistress, approaches Pederit, requesting his help in getting the seemingly spoiled noblewoman an appointment with a hair stylist of high standing. As the prince has forbidden all but official communications with parts of Germany outside his principality, Pederit uses the Baroness's official seal, not to request the hairdresser, but to alert the king, Frederick the Great, to the prince's plan for providing mercenaries, knowing that Frederick, a more humane ruler, will stop his underling's plan. When an emissary of Frederick's shows up just in time to forestall the departure of the twelve thousand conscripts, the prince realizes that Pederit has tricked him. He condemns his secretary to death. But Frederick's emissary reveals that Frederick has put the whistle-blower under his protection.

Distribution and habitat
This daviesia grows in sand and on rocky slopes in mallee-heath and heath in the Stirling Range and near Denmark in the Esperance Plains and Jarrah Forest biogeographic regions of south-western Western Australia.
Conservation status
Daviesia mesophylla is listed as "Priority Two" by the Western Australian Government Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions, meaning that it is poorly known and from only one or a few locations.

Andy Leleisi’uao (b. 1969) is a New Zealand artist of Samoan heritage known for his modern and post-modern Pacific paintings and art. He was paramount winner at the 26th annual Wallace Art Awards in 2017 and awarded a Senior Pacific Artist Award at the Arts Pasifika Awards in 2021.
Background
Leleisi’uao was born in 1969 New Zealand and grew up in Māngere, South Auckland. He has one sister, his parents were both born in Samoa and are Pepe (Lalomauga, Upolu) and Tuifa’asisina Tinou'amea (Palauli, Savai'i). Leleisi'uao went to Māngere College and afterwards had some factory jobs. He studied at the Auckland University of Technology (AUT) School of Art and Design and received the first ever Pasifika Scholarship in 2000. In 2002 Leleisi’uao graduated with a Master of Fine Arts (with Honours). He has been a full time artist since 1996.
He has attended a number of arts residencies including a Research Scholarship at Macmillan Brown Centre for Pacific Studies, University of Canterbury, and the McCahon House Artists’ Residency in 2010. He spent three months in Taiwan in 2010 on an Asia New Zealand Foundation residency with the Taipei Artist Village.
Leleisi'uao has been based in the Auckland suburb of Māngere for over 40 years. He said about artists in an interview with Ema Tavola "For any artist to be mentally fecund, they have to be open."
Some of the visual references in his work are Stone Age rock art, classical Greek vase painting, Egyptian hieroglyphs, and Samoan siapa (tapa) cloth. It is said in his paintings that reoccurring motifs, "remind us of the inherent humanity of his creatures, and the universality of their struggle and endeavour within a limited existence". His work style has changed over the years of his practice, in the late 1990s his paintings were highly politicized dealing with subjects such as prejudice and racism, poverty and youth suicide amongst Pacific Island populations in New Zealand. Since the 2000s his work utilizes 'mythology and spiritualism' with 'fantastical creatures' although still drawing upon 'social dislocation'.
His 2006 exhibition Empowered Wallflower - Whitespace, Ponsonby was about a new generations relationship to Fa'a Samoa and how domestic aspects such as using a traditional salu broom are important.
In 2017 he won the Wallace Art Awards including a six-month residency in New York the 'International Studio and Curatorial Programme'.
His art work is held in the collections of Christchurch Art Gallery, The Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, the Auckland Art Gallery, the Chartwell Collection, and the James Wallace Arts Trust collection.

Al Muqattam (Arabic: المقطم) was an Arabic newspaper which was published in Cairo, Egypt, between 1888 and 1952. It was one of the leading papers until its closure by the Egyptian government in 1954. The title of the paper was a reference to a range of hills outside Cairo.
History and profile
Al Muqattam was first published on 18 April 1888. It produced only three issues until 14 February 1889 when it became a daily newspaper. The founders were three Christians: Fares Nimr, Khalil Thabet and Anton Najib Matar. The paper was affiliated with the Al Muqtafa Foundation. The publishers were Syrian-origin Christians, Faris Nimr, Yaqub Sarruf and Shahin Makaryus. Fares Nimr also served as the editor-in-chief of the paper from its start to his death in 1951.
The paper initially produced news based on the translations of the telegraph messages sent by the major news agencies such as Reuters and Havas. Muhammad Al Muwaylihi's work entitled Ma Hunalik was first published in the paper and serialized between 28 June 1895 and 8 February 1896.During the British occupation of Egypt, namely between 1892 and 1914, Al Muqattam held a pro-British political stance. Therefore, the paper was subject to frequent criticisms and allegations that it was financed by the British authorities. Due to these there were tensions between Al Muqattam and another Cairo-based newspaper Al Muayyad which supported the independence of Egypt. In addition the publishers of Al Muqattam were frequently mocked by the political satire magazine Al Siyassa Al Musawwara.
Al Muqattam began to support another event which also caused criticisms: migration of Jews to Palestine.
In 1911 Nissim Malul, a Zionist activist, began to work as the correspondent of Al Muqattam in Haifa. The paper had a regular column on Palestine of which the editor was anonymous, and the articles were signed as “senior Zionist”. Salim Tamari, a Palestinian sociologist and writer, argues that the editor of the column was possibly Shimon Moyal, a Jaffa-born writer and Zionist.
Al Muqattam had three thousand subscribers in 1893. It was nearly six thousands like those of Al-Ahram and Al Mu'ayyad in 1897. Following the end of the British rule in Egypt in 1914 Al Muqattam became known for its high-quality journalism and reformist stance. Towards the end of its lifetime the paper had mostly an independent editorial approach. The last issue of Al Muqattam was published on 11 November 1952. The paper was banned by the Minister of National Guidance led by Salah Salem on 26 May 1954.

He left everything and went back to London. He completed his PhD. In the mean- time, he along with Srinivas Iyyengar, Md Ali, Saklatvala and others founded the London Committee of the Indian National Congress. He also got actively involved in Marxist activities.
Political and academic career
On return to India in 1932, he became a professor in Muslim University. In the meantime, he joined the Congress and soon became a leading figure of its leftwing. He was included in the central executive of the Congress Socialist Party, along with Jaiprakash Narain, EMS, Acharya Narendra Dev, Z A Ahmed, Sajjad Zaheer, Ram Manohar Lohia, Ashok Mehta, etc. He was made one of the secretaries of the AICC in 1936. Congress president made him in-charge of Muslim Affairs. Ashraf has full authority in Persian, Urdu, medieval social and philosophical life, etc., and was in close proximity with Muslim leaders. As such he was the most suitable for this job. Dr K M Ashraf worked in the AICC office in Allahabad.
Dr Ashraf was assigned by CPI to work on the student front too, and he used to guide the CPI fraction in the student movement. He presided over the Calcutta session of All India Students Federation in January 1939, and inaugurated the historic AISF session held in Nagpur in (December) 1940.

He shifted to Delhi in 1946 and used to live in the party commune in Daryaganj on a paltry wage of just Rs 8. Most of the comrades in the commune were youth, with Ashraf as the eldest.

Party decided to publish ‘Awami Daur’, an Urdu daily, from Delhi. Dr K M Ashraf was appointed its editor. Dr Ashraf was asked by the party to shift to Pakistan in 1948 after ‘Awami Daur’ was closed down. The conditions there were very difficult and Communists had to face severe repressions. Party was banned there and Ashraf had to go underground. He was arrested on the charge of being an Indian living in Pakistan illegally. His physical condition deteriorated further. He was released on the condition that he would never return to Pakistan. India too was not prepared to accept him as he was not an Indian citizen. He went to England and resumed his research in Indian society and history. He was also undergoing treatment. He worked in the British Museum.
He was not happy and wanted to return to India. There followed long years of efforts despite his closeness to Nehru and Maulana Azad. Nehru took special interest. It was only after two years’ efforts that he could get Indian citizenship. At the request of Nehru he worked in Srinagar on the history of Kashmiri people. Two years later, he joined KM College in Delhi and became head of history department. He presented several papers to the Indian History Congresses. He went to Humbolt University, Germany in 1969 to carry on research in ‘Conditions of People in Medieval India’, which got worldwide fame and was published from Berlin. He also visited Moscow and Tashkent.
Dr K M Ashraf died on June 7, 1962, in Berlin due to heart attack.

Ernst Snapper (December 2, 1913, Gronigen – February 5, 2011, Chapel Hill, North Carolina) was a Dutch-American mathematician, known for his research in "commutative algebra, algebraic geometry, cohomology of groups, character theory, and combinatorics."
Biography
Ernst Snapper, born to a Jewish family in the Netherlands, received in 1936 the equivalent of a master's degree from the University of Amsterdam. In 1938 his father, Isidore Snapper, an internationally known physician and medical researcher, accepted an offer to become the director of medical research at the Rockefeller Foundation's Peking Union Medical College. Acting on a suggestion from Abraham Flexner, Isidore Snapper encouraged Ernst Snapper to apply to Princeton University to become a graduate student. As a doctoral student of Joseph Wedderburn, Ernst Spanner graduated with a Ph.D. from Princeton University in 1941. In China, his father and mother were interned by the Japanese, but were later released in an exchange. Ernst Snapper was an instructor from 1941 ti 1945 at Princeton University. He was a professor of mathematics from 1945 to 1955 at the University of Southern California, from 1955 to 1958 at Miami University of Ohio, from 1958 to 1963 at Indiana University, and from 1963 to 1979 at Dartmouth College, where he retired as professor emeritus. He was a visiting professor for the academic years 1949–1950 and 1954–1955 at Princeton University and for the academic year 1953–1954 at Harvard University.
His doctoral students include Arunas Rudvalis. Snapper's paper The Three Crises in Mathematics: Logicism, Intuitionism and formalism won the 1980 Carl B. Allendoerfer Award.
He was married to Ethel K. Snapper (1917–1995) for nearly 60 years. Upon his death he was survived by his two sons, John and James, both of whom were graduates of Princeton University, and two granddaughters. John Snapper received his Ph.D. in philosophy from the University of Chicago and became a professor at Illinois Institute of Technology. James Robert Snapper received his M.D. from Harvard Medical School in 1974 and became a pulmonologist and consulting professor in the department of medicine of Duke University School of Medicine.
Ernst Snapper corresponded with Leo Vroman, who was his cousin.

Gabriel Fabricy is a French biblical scholar, archaeologist and dominican friar.
Biographie
Gabriel Fabricy was born at Saint-Maximin, in the Provence, about 1725. As a young man he entered the Dominican Order. After his service as Provincial of the order in France, he came to Rome around 1760. He spent many years there as one of the theologians officially attached to the famous Biblioteca Casanatense. He was a member of the Arcadian Academy. Among his writings are Censoris theologi Diatribe, qua bibliographiae antiquariae et sacrae critices capita aliquot illustrantur (Rome, 1782, 8vo). He entered upon the study of Phoenician antiquities and literature, but did not live to complete his plans; the partial fruit of his labors appears in De Phoeniciae Litteraturae Fontibus (Rome, 1803, 2 volumes, 8vo). Perhaps his best work is Des Titres primitifs de la Révélation, ou considérations critiques sur la pureté et l’intégrité du texte original des livres saints de l’ancien Testament (Rome, 1772, 2 volumes, 8vo), which is still of value in Biblical criticism. The author examines fully the character of that portion of the original text of the Old Testament which is still preserved; and he defends the reading of the text according to the Masoretic system as superior to any other that could be proposed.
Fabricy was in correspondence with a collaborator of Benjamin Kennicott, Paul Jakob Bruns, and had sent him information about Hebrew biblical manuscripts in the Casanatense Library.

USS Van Valkenburgh (DD-656) was a of the United States Navy, named for Captain Franklin Van Valkenburgh (1888–1941), captain of the battleship when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor.
Van Valkenburgh was laid down on 15 November 1942 at Chickasaw, Alabama, by the Gulf Shipbuilding Corp.; launched on 19 December 1943, sponsored by Mrs. Marguerite Van Valkenburgh, widow of Capt. Van Valkenburgh; and commissioned at the Alabama State Docks, Mobile, Alabama, on 2 August 1944, Commander Alexander B. Coxe, Jr., in command. The ensign hoisted upon commissioning that afternoon was the same that had flown above Arizonas fantail at Pearl Harbor on the morning of 7 December 1941.
World War II
Van Valkenburgh conducted trials and structural firing tests after her initial fitting-out period and, while returning from her gunnery tests on 7 August, received a request for help from the Army tug LT-18. The destroyer altered course and soon came across the disabled tug, with three barges laden with explosives in tow. Van Valkenburgh patrolled on various courses around LT-18, standing by to render assistance if necessary, until help arrived early on the 8th. Returning to Mobile, the destroyer continued the fitting-out process before getting underway for Bermuda on 20 August.
Van Valkenburgh conducted her shakedown training out of Great Sound, Bermuda, into late September and, on 26 September, headed for Charleston, South Carolina, and post-shakedown availability. Shifting to Hampton Roads soon thereafter, the destroyer conducted training evolutions before rendezvousing with the light cruiser on 22 October.
Van Valkenburgh escorted that new light cruiser to the Panama Canal Zone and transited the Panama Canal on 27 October. At Balboa, joined the two warships, and the three continued on together, bound for San Diego, California Between 10 and 16 November, they escorted a convoy of troop transports to the Hawaiian Islands, conducting training operations off Lanai, Maui, before arriving at Pearl Harbor on 17 November.
Van Valkenburgh subsequently operated out of Pearl Harbor, engaging in an intensive slate of training activities. She made practice torpedo runs, antiaircraft firings, and shore bombardments—exercises occurring in such an endless parade that it moved a Van Valkenburgh sailor to write that "the real thing could be no more of a strain."
Battle of Iwo Jima
Van Valkenburgh trained in Hawaiian waters through the end of December 1944 and, after a tender availability alongside , headed for the western Pacific and her first combat operation, departing Pearl Harbor on 27 January 1945. After touching at Eniwetok en route, the destroyer reached Saipan in the Mariana Islands, where dress rehearsals were held for the landings slated to take place on Iwo Jima in the Volcano Islands. After two days of exercises at Saipan, the fleet sortied for Iwo Jima.
The morning of 19 February dawned gray and wet as the force reached their objective. Van Valkenburgh soon commenced her patrols as part of the three-deep screen around the unloading transports and took her turn at firing gunfire support for the marines ashore. For a week off Iwo, the destroyer alternately screened, escorted, and bombarded.
As transports and freighters unloaded their holds and disembarked their mottle-garbed marines, Van Valkenburgh received orders to escort a group of empty ships back to the Marianas. After shepherding a group to Saipan, Van Valkenburgh returned to Iwo Jima at noon on 3 March. Five days later, she made another trip to Saipan, returning on 18 March to resume screening duties as escort for an amphibious group.
Battle of Okinawa
After joining that unit, Van Valkenburgh participated in landing rehearsals and exercises on neighboring Tinian and learned that the destination for that group was Okinawa, in the Ryūkyū chain, only from the enemy's homeland. On 27 March, as part of Task Group 51.2 (TG 51.2), Van Valkenburgh sailed for her second combat operation.
Van Valkenburghs group was ordered to feint a landing on the southwest coast of the island to draw off the Japanese defenders, while the main force approached from the westward. On the morning of 1 April, while the "Demonstration Group" gathered off the southern beaches, the 6th Army and several marine units splashed ashore on the western side of the island.
"While opposition on land was slow in gathering", wrote Van Valkenburghs ship's historian, "air opposition was immediate." As the destroyer made her sweep close inshore, a kamikaze attacked , a ship loaded with ammunition and an embarked detachment of marines. Fortunately, the plane carried no bomb, but holed the ship near the waterline forward, starting fires in the double bottom.
Van Valkenburgh stood by LST-884 for eight hours, sending the stricken ship a fire and rescue party and fire-fighting equipment under the command of Lt. Comdr. W. Brown (attached to the staff of Capt. W. D. Chandler, screen commander embarked in Van Valkenburgh) to aid in fighting the blazes. Due in large part to the work of Brown's party, the fires were extinguished; and, in spite of an initially dangerous starboard list, LST-884 reached Kerama Retto under tow. Three officers and 15 enlisted men from the destroyer received decorations, the highest being Silver Stars to Lt. Comdr. Brown and Lt. J. D. McCormich, USNR.
On 4 April, Van Valkenburgh retired almost to the east of Okinawa with the feint group whose maneuvers had accomplished their purpose. That group remained as a floating reserve, occasionally detaching transports to disembark their needed troops and marines on Okinawa, until they sailed back to the Marianas, reaching Saipan on 15 April.
Four days later, Van Valkenburgh returned to Okinawa, and spent the initial part of that tour in the inner screen, patrolling the transport area just off the beach. "The first night ...", the destroyer's commanding officer recounted, "... we had eighteen raids and not one of them turned out to be friendly."
As Van Valkenburgh subsequently entered the anchorage at Kerama Retto, a group of small, rocky islands off the southwestern coast of Okinawa, her men saw the after-effects of other ships' encounters with the "Special Attack Corps", or, the kamikaze. After seeing the devastation wrought by the suicide planes, Van Valkenburgh headed out to report and relieve on radar picket station 14 (RP-14), as support ship to .
The radar picket was to the northwest of Okinawa, and was, in the words of Van Valkenburgh'''s commanding officer, "more nearly in the direction of Japan than anywhere else." The proximity to Japanese air bases soon became evident. Within six hours of her assuming station, the local combat air patrol (CAP), controlled by Wickes, had shot down 21 planes. Van Valkenburgh herself accounted for another and assisted in destroying a second.Van Valkenburgh also went to the aid of a second kamikaze victim, , which was hit by a flaming suicider and sank immediately. The destroyer picked up the ship's survivors; and her doctor, assisted by his pharmacist's mates, worked into the wee hours of the morning on the wounded, some of them badly burned.
Over half of the following 63 days which the destroyer spent in Okinawan waters were spent on one of the 15 stations surrounding the island itself. The radar picket ships not only provided an early warning of the approach of enemy aircraft or surface units but also drew fire. The Japanese concentrated their kamikazes on the picket line of destroyers and smaller units like LCIs and LCSs.
During those weeks, no one rested. Few, if any, of the crew even bothered to undress when attempting sleep. Most slept fully clothed, awaiting the general quarters alarm. Van Valkenburgh experienced at least two general quarters alarms per night; often four or five times between 21:00 and dawn. As soon as it was light, Corsairs of the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing based ashore reported for duty on each station, joining with carrier-based aircraft to form the CAP.
On 28 April, within a week of her rescue of the survivors of LCS-15, Van Valkenburgh made her third "Good Samaritan" trip. and , on RP-1, drew the ire of a determined group of suiciders. Daly suffered heavy casualties when a kamikaze, plummeting downward, exploded just before it was about to crash the bridge on the port side. Among those killed by the shrapnel and flying debris was the ship's doctor.Van Valkenburgh went alongside Daly and transferred her doctor, Lt. M. E. Smale, to her stricken sister ship, along with Pharmacist's Mate 3d Class Charles B. Reed, to attend the wounded. Since neither Daly nor the other damaged ship required any further assistance, Van Valkenburgh returned to her station and later embarked Doctor Smale and Pharmacist's Mate Reed at Kerama Retto.
Between her tours on the radar picket stations, Van Valkenburgh received upkeep back at Kerama Retto and conducted one shore bombardment mission. It was a one-night assignment at Buckner Bay, where she blasted pockets of Japanese resistance on the southern tip of Okinawa. The next day, however, she steamed back to the picket line.
The busiest time for Van Valkenburgh came on the evening of 17 May, when, in company with and a group of four LCIs, she was on patrol on RP-9. The CAP had just returned to base, and the group wondered when they could secure from the evening alert when suddenly the word came: "Several planes approaching from the west—very low—on the deck."
Over the next 30 minutes, a "melee" took place. "Apparently", Van Valkenburgh's commanding officer recalled, "we were marked for 'liquidation' that night as RP-10 had been on the night of the sinking of the ." With "everybody for himself", Van Valkenburgh twisted and turned, maneuvering while firing with every gun that could be brought to bear. At one point, five blips appeared on the radar screen within a radius.
Two Japanese planes splashed—victims of Van Valkenburghs direct fire—one only off the fantail. Douglas H. Fox splashed two more, and the pair of destroyers teamed up for a fifth kill. Unfortunately for Douglas H. Fox, one kamikaze found its mark, crashing that destroyer's forward gun mount.Van Valkenburgh closed her stricken sister and rendered what aid she could. While thus engaged, she diverted her attention long enough to lay down a barrage to discourage a seventh Japanese plane "who appeared to be calculating his chances in on the attractive target of the two slow-moving destroyers." At a range of , the plane suddenly disappeared from the radar screen, and Van Valkenburgh claimed that her antiaircraft fire had scored again.
After assisting Douglas H. Fox, Van Valkenburgh patrolled the area to search for possible missing men. The night prowl proved fruitless, but the ship was later relieved to hear that only one man of the stricken destroyer's complement remained unaccounted for.
Subsequently, Van Valkenburgh was deployed to RP-16, in company with , and spent a relatively quiet patrol until her radar picked up the approach of , en route to relieve Robert H. Smith. While Shubrick was still some away and as Van Valkenburgh was about to secure from general quarters, the latter's radar picked up two low-flying bogies, 10 miles to the north and closing.Van Valkenburgh and Robert H. Smith cleared for action, but the pair of planes turned and headed for the newcomer, Shubrick. Van Valkenburgh passed a warning to her sister ship, but too late. At 00:10 on 29 May, one of the two enemy aircraft crashed Shubrick astern. Van Valkenburghs lookouts saw the splash of fire in the pre-dawn darkness and heard the "crump" of the explosion.
Communicating her intentions to Robert H. Smith, Van Valkenburgh veered off and headed for her damaged sister. She arrived to find that the kamikaze had blown a hole in the starboard side, and one of the stricken destroyer's own depth charges had exploded, causing further damage. With the situation looking grim, Van Valkenburgh came alongside at 01:13, taking on board survivors—some of whom had been badly wounded.
"Gear of all types was carried, dumped, and hurled across from the sinking destroyer", as she transferred classified material and all unnecessary personnel. Again Van Valkenburghs Doctor Smale transformed the wardroom into a dressing station to minister to the casualties. "Once more our decks and passageways bore the stretchers of the dead and dying", wrote Van Valkenburghs commanding officer. In the wardroom, "plasma flowed in life-giving torrents."
With flooding controlled and fires extinguished, Shubrick remained doggedly afloat. soon arrived on the scene and towed the crippled destroyer to Kerama Retto. Van Valkenburgh had performed "Good Samaritan" duty for the fourth time.
The attacks, however, did not cease. On the evening of 5 June, while on RP-11 in company with and , Van Valkenburgh came under a concentrated torpedo attack. About dusk on that day, four or five planes closed, low from the west and heavy with bombs and torpedoes. Van Valkenburghs 40 millimeter Bofors batteries hurled out shell after shell, peppering the skies with flak. One bomber launched its torpedo—the "fish" passing ahead of the ship—but did not emerge from the attack. The destroyer's 40 millimeter barrage slapped it into the sea. The second torpedo dropped, which was aimed in Van Valkenburghs direction, passed astern.
Following that last incident, Van Valkenburghs sailors noted a definite slackening in the Japanese attacks. The massive B-29 raids on the home islands, together with the attrition caused by steady pounding by American carrier-based air power, had slowed the Japanese down considerably.
Final operations
Late on 24 June, Van Valkenburgh finally left the forward areas, bound for the Philippines. For the ensuing fortnight, the ship rested at San Pedro Bay, Leyte, enjoying a breather from the hectic pace of operations that had lasted for over two months.
Early in July, she put to sea as part of a surface force consisting of the new large cruisers and , four light cruisers, and seven destroyers. Assigned to operate along the China coast between Formosa and Shanghai, the force searched for any signs of Japanese surface ship activity in that area but found no opposition of any kind. Ready for anything when they put to sea, Van Valkenburghs sailors found the situation almost anti-climactic. As one member of the crew wrote: "Our tension relaxed considerably and our sweep took on the aspect of tactical maneuvers in Chesapeake Bay."
Neither ships nor planes inquired or resisted the task force's progress, as the ships set a course back to Okinawa after a five-day patrol, off Shanghai. The task force commander offered consoling thoughts: "If the lack of action is a disappointment at least we have the satisfaction of knowing that the East China Sea was under 'our control.'"
Subsequently, returning to Buckner Bay, Van Valkenburgh lay at anchor there when, at 21:00 on 10 August 1945, "all Hell broke loose." Something akin to a Fourth of July celebration occurred, as some 150 warships threw everything they had—searchlights; tracers; red, white, and green flares; and star shell—into a 15-minute celebration that commemorated the word that the Japanese were entertaining thoughts of surrender. The demonstration subsided as quickly as it had formed, and darkness again descended upon Buckner Bay. Two days later, however, the torpedoing of brought home the fact that war was still very much "on." It was not until after 15 August that the signal "cease present operations" could be hoisted, indicating that the war was over at last.
On 7 September, Van Valkenburgh stood out of Buckner Bay in company with , , , and , as screen for the escort carriers , , , and , bound for Japan and occupation duty in the erstwhile enemy's waters. For the week that followed, the group operated off the coast of Kyūshū, southwest of Nagasaki, Japan, while aircraft from the carriers patrolled the island and coast and assisted in locating mines in the clearance operations paving the way for entry into the harbor at Nagasaki.
On 15 September, as Van Valkenburgh steamed into Nagasaki harbor, every available vantage point topside was occupied by men silently taking in the incredible devastation wrought by the atomic bomb dropped on the city over a month before. During her week there, Van Valkenburgh stood by as Allied prisoners of war were taken on board the hospital ship which lay moored at the port's principal dock.
For the next six weeks, Van Valkenburgh remained in Japanese waters, carrying out two courier trips to Wakayama, Honshū, Japan, on the Inland Sea.
Finally, her tour of duty in the Far East completed, Van Valkenburgh sailed for the United States on 17 November, departing Sasebo on that day, bound for the West Coast. Reaching San Diego on 6 December—via Midway and Pearl Harbor—the destroyer soon pushed on for the East Coast, transiting the Panama Canal on 18 and 19 December. Making port at Charleston, South Carolina, two days before Christmas of 1945, Van Valkenburgh was decommissioned and placed in reserve on 12 April 1946.
1950 – 1954
On 31 August 1950, some two months after North Korea invaded South Korea, the Navy ordered Van Valkenburghs activation in light of the recently erupting Far Eastern crisis. Accordingly, Van Valkenburgh was recommissioned at Charleston on 8 March 1951, Comdr. C. A. Marinke in command. She trained off the Virginia Capes and up the coast to Nova Scotian waters, as well as into the Caribbean, from Guantanamo Bay to Culebra, Puerto Rico.Van Valkenburgh subsequently departed Norfolk on 2 May; transited the Panama Canal between 20 and 22 May; and reached Yokosuka, Japan, on 17 June, via San Diego, Pearl Harbor, and Midway.
Leaving Yokosuka in her wake on 22 June, Van Valkenburgh spent the next 36 days at sea with Task Force 77 (TF 77), screening the fast carriers as they launched air strikes against Communist forces ashore. Putting into Sasebo at the end of July, the destroyer spent a brief period in-port before she got underway on 1 August for the "bomb line."Van Valkenburgh relieved as Task Element 95.28 (TE 95.28) shortly after noon on 3 August. Operating under the control of Commander, Task Group 95.2 (TG 95.2) Commander, East Coast Blockading and Patrol Group, the destroyer commenced a period of operations in support of the I Corps, Republic of Korea (ROK) Army. No sooner had she actually commenced those activities, than she received a call for indirect fire. She expended 20 rounds of 5-inch shells against enemy positions before conducting night inshore patrol from Kojo, south to the "bomb line."
Over the ensuing days, Van Valkenburgh expended over 2,400 rounds of ammunition against a variety of targets—ranging from houses to bunkers, artillery positions to sampans, trenches to tents and supply dumps, frequently using air spotters. She conducted her patrol operations in company with ROK YMS-5H. On one occasion—9 August 1952—Van Valkenburgh dueled with a communist shore battery. Taking 10 rounds of 76-millimeter projectiles from Suwan Dan, the destroyer returned immediate counterbattery and slow destructive fire, using airspot, expending 51 rounds of 5-inch projectiles.
After being relieved by , Van Valkenburgh operated in the Far East into the autumn. She visited the Japanese ports of Yokosuka, Hakodate, and Ominato and touched at Keelung, Formosa, before she patrolled the Formosa Strait. She then visited Kaohsiung, Formosa, and Hong Kong, but returned to the Formosa Strait for a second stint of patrol duty.
Then, after a week's upkeep at Subic Bay, from 10 to 17 October, Van Valkenburgh headed for the United States. She completed a circumnavigation of the globe, sailing via Singapore, Federated Malay States; Colombo, Ceylon and Ras Tanura, Aden; the Suez Canal—transiting that waterway on 14 November; Naples and Genoa, Italy; Cannes, France; and Gibraltar; reaching Norfolk, Virginia, on 12 December.
After remaining at Norfolk through the Christmas and New Year's holidays, Van Valkenburgh operated in the Vieques, Puerto Rico, area in March 1953. She then returned to Norfolk, where she was placed in reserve, but still in commission, in August 1953. Taken to Philadelphia, Pa. later that same month, Van Valkenburgh remained in reserve at that port until she was decommissioned on 26 February 1954.
TCG İzmir (D 341)
Transferred on loan to the Government of Turkey on 28 February 1967, Van Valkenburgh became TCG İzmir (D 341) and operated with the Turkish Navy into the early 1970s. Struck from the U.S. Navy List on 1 February 1973, the destroyer was returned to the United States on 15 February but was simultaneously sold to Turkey.İzmir was stricken and broken up for scrap in 1987.
Awards Van Valkenburgh'' won the Navy Unit Commendation for her service off Okinawa, was awarded three battle stars for her World War II duty and received one for Korean War operations.

Reception
Pablo Vázquez of Fotogramas scored 5 out of 5 stars, extolling the absence of any sort of imposture, while noting that its extended runtime perhaps will dissuade cowards, assessing the film to be "a cum laude thesis with which its director embraces his maturity as a filmmaker".
Carmen L. Lobo of La Razón gave it 4 out of 5 stars, considering "its splendid, immersive direction, and the optimism and nostalgia enveloping the film" to be the best thing about Who's Stopping Us.
Quim Casas of El Periódico de Catalunya rated the film with 4 out of 5 stars, considering that the vast amount of material "has taken an exciting form, in different blocks perfectly articulated with each other."
Jonathan Romney of ScreenDaily wrote that the film is "not as revelatory as it intends, this is an only intermittently fascinating watch, an over-extended experiment that doesn't quite hold its own against 21st-century cinema's more incisive portraits of youth".

Major-general John Pine Coffin (1778 – 1830) was an English army officer and colonial administrator who served as Governor of St. Helena 1821–23.
Life
Napoleonic Wars
John Pine Coffin, fourth son of The Rev. John Pine of Eastdown, Devonshire, who took the name of Coffin in 1797, by his wife, the daughter of James Rowe of Alverdiscot, Devonshire, was born on 16 March 1778. In 1795 he obtained a cornetcy in the 4th Dragoons, in which James Dalbiac and George Scovell were among his brother subalterns, and became lieutenant therein in 1799. He was attached to the quartermaster-general's staff of the army in Egypt in 1801, and was present at the surrender of Cairo and the attack on Alexandria from the westward.
On the formation of the Royal Staff Corps (for engineer and other departmental duties under the quartermaster-general), he was appointed to a company therein, but the year after was promoted to major and removed to the permanent staff of the quartermaster-general's department, in which capacity he was in Dublin at the time of Emmet's insurrection, and continued to serve in Ireland until 1806, afterwards accompanying Lord Cathcart to the Isle of Rugen and in the expedition against Copenhagen in 1807.
In 1808 he was sent to the Mediterranean as deputy quartermaster-general with the rank of lieutenant-colonel, and was employed with the expedition to the Bay of Naples, which ended in the capture of Ischia and Procida. In 1810 he organised the flotilla of gunboats equipped for the defence of the Straits of Messina, when Murat's army was encamped on the opposite shore; and in 1813 he commanded the troops of a battalion of the 10th foot on board the Thames, 32 guns, under Captain afterwards Admiral Sir Charles Napier, and the Furieuse, 36 (18-pounders), under Captain William Mounsey, sent to attack the Isle of Ponza, which was captured by the frigates sailing right into the harbour, under a heavy cross-fire from the shore-batteries, and landing the troops without losing a man. He was afterwards employed by Lord William Bentinck on staff duties at Tarragona and at Genoa, and attained the rank of brevet-colonel in 1814.
After the renewal of hostilities in 1815, when the Austrian and Piedmontese armies of occupation, a hundred thousand strong, entered France, Coffin was attached, in the capacity of British military commissioner with the rank of brigadier-general, to the Austro-Sardinians, who crossed Mont Cenis, and remained with them until they quitted French territory, in accordance with the Treaty of Paris.
St. Helena
In 1817 he was appointed regimental major of the Royal Staff Corps, at headquarters, Hythe, Kent, and in 1819 was nominated Lieutenant-governor and second in command under Sir Hudson Lowe at St. Helena, in the room of Sir George Bingham, returned home. This portion of Coffin's services has been left unnoticed by most historians and biographers. When Sir Hudson Lowe left the island in July 1821, after the death of the imperial captive, Coffin succeeded to the command, which he held until, the last of the King's troops having been removed, he was relieved, in March 1823, by Brigadier-general Alexander Walker, HEICS, when the government of the island reverted for some years to the East India Company. Coffin's correspondence with the council of the island, which was at first disposed to question his authority, will be found in the archives of the British Library. Coffin was advanced to the rank of major-general in 1825.
Personal life
He married, in 1820, the only daughter of George Monkland, late of Belmont, Bath, by whom he had no issue. He died at Bath on 10 February 1830. Coffin was the English translator of Stutterheim's Account of the Battle of Austerlitz (London, 1806).

Sharon Plantation was a plantation originally founded in colonial Savannah, Province of Georgia. It covered around , on land bounded by Old Louisville Road and the Ogeechee Canal six miles to the west of the city.
The plantation came into the Telfair family via Barach Gibbons, son of William Gibbons and the brother-in-law of Edward Telfair. Barach died in 1814 and bequeathed the plantation to his sister, Sarah. Edward married Sarah at the plantation in 1774. One of their children, born in 1791, was philanthropist Mary Telfair. She was their first daughter of eight children.
In 1782, during the Revolutionary War, Emistisiguo, chief of the local Upper Creek Indian tribe, attacked Anthony Wayne's camp at the plantation in the early hours of June 24. Wayne had arrived with the intention of disbanding the British alliance with Indian tribes in Georgia. He negotiated peace treaties with both the Creeks and the Cherokees, for which Georgia rewarded him with a large rice plantation.
On October 15, 1785, Dr. Samuel Vickers, Surgeon of the Hospitals during the Revolutionary War, committed suicide at the plantation. The coroner found "he had been for some time before insane and not of sound memory and perfect understanding".
In 1859, Augustus Wetter purchased the plantation.
Around Christmas 1862, the body of a Mrs. Haig, a relative of his wife, was stolen from its vault at the Sharon Plantation. The vault had been forced open, and the body (along with a silver plate that had been resting atop the coffin) was missing. Wetter offered a large reward in the Savannah Morning News for information on the theft.
Wetter was buried at the plantation after his death in 1882.
Edward Telfair was initially interred in a vault at the plantation after his death in 1807, but his remains were moved to Bonaventure Cemetery later in the 19th century. It is believed Wetter's family is still buried at the site, despite the plantation's sale by the descendants of Wetter.

The 2020 Guam Democratic presidential caucuses were held June 6, 2020, in the Democratic Party presidential primaries for the 2020 presidential election. They were originally scheduled to take place on May 2, but was postponed due to concerns regarding the COVID-19 pandemic in Guam. The Guam caucuses are a closed caucus, with the territory awarding 11 delegates, of which 6 are pledged delegates allocated on the basis of the results of the caucuses.
Procedure
When the Guam Democratic Party published its draft delegate selection plan on July 7, 2019, it specified a May 2 date for the 2020 caucuses.
In the closed caucuses, candidates must meet a threshold of 15 percent across the territory to be considered viable. The 6 pledged delegates to the 2020 Democratic National Convention will be allocated proportionally on the basis of the results of the caucuses. Of the 6 pledged delegates, all 6 are at-large pledged delegates.
The 6 pledged delegates Guam sends to the national convention will be joined by 5 unpledged PLEO delegates (4 members of the Democratic National Committee and nonvoting delegate Michael San Nicolas).
Results
On June 6, Joe Biden won the caucuses in Guam, pushing him over the delegate threshold to formally secure the Democratic Party nomination.
