Hyderabad is the homeland of Tollywood, the Telugu movie industry. Apart from being a popular entertainment source and India\'s largest film producer as measured by the number of films made every year (followed by Bollywood), Tollywood also provides livelihood to thousands of its citizens and contributes a large amount of revenue to the local government. Previously, many Telugu films were produced in Madras. However, improvements in Hyderabad\'s infrastructure and initiatives such as establishing studios like Ramoji Film City (cited by the *Guinness Book of World Records* as the world\'s largest film studio), Saradhi Studios, Annapurna Studios, Ramanaidu Studios, Ramakrishna Studios and Padmalaya Studios have changed the situation. Not only Telugu films, but films from Bollywood are made in Hyderabad

**Marfisa** (also translated as \"Marphisa\") is a character in the Italian romantic epics *Orlando innamorato* by Matteo Maria Boiardo and *Orlando Furioso* by Ludovico Ariosto. She is the sister of Ruggiero but was separated from him in early childhood. She becomes queen of India and fights as a warrior for the Saracens, taking part in the siege of the fortress Albracca until her sword is stolen by Brunello. She falls in love with Ruggiero, unaware who he is until Atlantes reveals their background. Learning that her parents were Christian, she converts to the faith and joins the Emperor Charlemagne\'s army against the Saracens.
## Quotation
Marphisa raised her face with haughty cheer, And answered him: \"Thy judgment wanders far; I will concede thy sentence would be clear, Concluding I am thine by right of war, If either were my lord or cavalier Of those, by thee unhorsed in bloody jar: Nor theirs am I, nor other\'s, but my own, Who wins me, wins me from myself alone.

# Monty Jones
**Monty Jones** (5 February 1951 -- 28 April 2024) was a Sierra Leonean plant breeder and politician who served as the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Food Security.
Jones served as the Special Adviser to the President of Sierra Leone and Ambassador-at-Large until his appointment to the cabinet.
He served as the first Executive Director of the Forum for Agricultural Research in Africa (FARA) and was adjudged a co-winner of the 2004 World Food Prize.
The award was based on his discovery of the genetic process to create the New Rice for Africa (NERICA), which gives higher yields, shorter growth cycles and more protein content than its Asian and African parents.
## Biography
Born Monty Patrick Jones on 5 February 1951, in Freetown, Sierra Leone, Jones was raised in a middle-class Creole Catholic family.
Jones obtained a B.Sc. in Agriculture from Njala University College, University of Sierra Leone in 1974, followed by an M.Sc. in Plant Genetic Resources (1979) and a Ph.D. in Plant Biology (1983) from the University of Birmingham, UK.
He was also awarded an honorary degree in Doctor of Science (DSc) by his alma mater, Birmingham University, in July 2005.
Jones died on 28 April 2024, at the age of 73.
## Career
Jones spent the last 32 years of his career in Africa working in international agricultural research for development institutions. He began his career at the Rice Research Station in Sierra Leone, where he worked as a breeder for 13 years.
His international career started with the CGIAR as coordinator of the IITA/USAID Cameroon rice program from 1987 to 1990. In 1991, Jones moved to the West Africa Rice Development Association (WARDA) now known as AfricaRice Centre, to become its principal breeder.
There, he led the team that successfully crossed the Asian and African rice species (*Oryza sativa* and *Oryza glaberrima*), producing the high-yield NERICA variety in collaboration with his fellow African scientists and with other scientists from Asia, Europe and the US. He then disseminated NERICA through participatory approaches by working at multiple levels of associates from scientists to extension workers and farmersorganizations to governments and NGOs.
Jones' work on NERICA has increased rice production in Africa and has given savings to many African governments on rice imports. Through his work, WARDA was awarded the CGIAR's King Baudouin Award in 2000.
At the time he left WARDA to join FARA in July 2002, Jones had held three offices, first as its Principal Rice Breeder, Rain-fed Program Leader and Deputy Director of Research.
Upon joining FARA as its Executive Secretary (later renamed Executive Director), Jones was actively involved in creating awareness to ensure coordinated efforts in agricultural research for development and increased African ownership in the area of research.
He is the immediate past chairperson of Global Forum on Agricultural Research (GFAR).
In January 2014 Jones was nominated president of EMRC, a not-for-profit Belgium-based association founded to encourage and facilitate private sector investment in Africa.
Jones replaced Professor Pierre Mathijsen, professor of European Law at the University of Brussels and Managing Partner of the law firm Eurolegal EEIG, who had been at the helm of EMRC for a decade.
## Awards and recognition {#awards_and_recognition}
1. **September 2001**, Jones received the National Order of Merit of Côte d\'Ivoire given by the Ivorian President.
2. **2004**, Jones was named a co-recipient (with Prof. Yuan Longping of China) of the World Food Prize for his work in developing NERICA.
3. **2007**, *Time Magazine* named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world.
4. **2010,** he was appointed Professor Extraordinary by the Executive Committee of the University of the Free State, South Africa.
5. **2010,** he was also awarded the main prize of the Niigata International Food Award in Japan, in October of the same year.
6. **2011**, he was awarded the Insignia of the Grand Officer of the Order of the Rokel by the President of Sierra Leone for his work on NERICA

# Keith Dunne
**Keith Dunne** (born 10 February 1982) is an Irish footballer. Dunne is a versatile right sided winger who can play on either wing and he also has experience playing as a striker.
## Career
Keith was born in Dublin and played with junior side, Verona, before moving to the United States to take up a place on a soccer scholarship in 1999. There, he played college football in Atlanta, before returning home to Dublin where he played with another junior club, Ashtown Villa. Keith was quickly snapped up by then St. Patrick\'s Athletic manager, Eamon Collins in March 2003, and made a number of appearances for the Saints over three seasons in the Premier Division. During his time with Pats, he played in the 2003 FAI Cup Final against Longford Town at Lansdowne Road, a game they lost 2--0. Earlier that season Dunne played a part in beating the same opposition helping Pats to victory in the 2003 League of Ireland Cup Final.
Dunne, with over 70 appearances under his belt in the top flight, then left Richmond Park in January 2006 to spend time with his family in America, before once again returning to his native shores. And he soon found himself back in the League of Ireland, when ex-St. Pats coach, Gerry Scully invited the Blanchardstown-based player to join him at Dundalk.
In his first season at Dundalk, he helped the club to second place in the 2006 First Division and a 3--2 playoff win over Waterford United. In the 2007 season, Dunne again was a regular in the Dundalk first team helping them to the top of the table by mid-season. However, a decline in Dundalk\'s form saw the Lilywhites finish 3rd in the First Division table and they were eventually defeated by Finn Harps in a one off 2nd vs 3rd place play-off to decide who would play Waterford United for a Premier Division spot.
Dunne was released at the end of the 2007 season by Dundalk but within a week he signed for Shelbourne on 29 November 2007. Dunne made his Shelbourne debut during a League of Ireland Cup 1st round tie on 24 March 2008 against Sporting Fingal at Morton Stadium, a match Shelbourne won 6--5 on penalties after a 2--2 draw after extra-time. He scored his first Shelbourne goal during a 5--0 league victory over Kildare County at Tolka Park on 16 May 2008. Dunne departed Shelbourne mid-way through the 2008 season. He made 11 league and cup appearances for Shels, scoring 1 goal in the process. He later joined Leinster Senior League side Phoenix F.C.before moving on to Tolka Rovers and Glebe North.
In July 2011 Keith joined Athletic Union League Premier A side Corduff FC where he was appointed Captain from his first pre-season game. Dunne started the season in flying form scoring goals on a regular basis for Corduff. In November on the back of some excellent performances for both Corduff and the AUL Oscar Traynor Panel where he scored 6 goals in 2 games he was \"approached\" by follow AUL Side Sheriff Y.C. to join them, he transferred to YC in Dec 2011 but has yet to play any games for them due to Injury. In January 2012 rumours have started that Dunne may return to Corduff for the rest of the season due to differences with the Manager of YC.
Cousin of Jason McGuinness.

# Douglas A. Melton
**Douglas A. Melton** is an American medical researcher who is the Xander University Professor at Harvard University, and was an investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute until 2022. Melton is a co-director of the Harvard Stem Cell Institute and was an original co-chairman (with David Scadden) of the Harvard University Department of Stem Cell and Regenerative Biology. Melton founded of several biotech companies including Gilead Sciences, Ontogeny (now Curis), iPierian (now True North Therapeutics `{{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170629112516/https://www.bioverativ.com/newsroom/bioverativ-completes-acquisition-of-true-north-therapeutics.aspx |date=2017-06-29 }}`{=mediawiki}), and Semma Therapeutics. Melton is a member of the National Academy of the Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and is a founding member of the International Society for Stem Cell Research.
## Early life and education {#early_life_and_education}
Melton grew up in Blue Island, Illinois and completed a Bachelor of Science degree in biology at the University of Illinois at Urbana--Champaign in 1975. He was awarded a Marshall Scholarship for study at the University of Cambridge where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree in the history and philosophy of science in 1977 and a PhD under the supervision of John Gurdon.
## Career and research {#career_and_research}
Melton\'s early work was in general developmental biology, identifying genes important for cell fate determination and body pattern. This led to the finding that the nervous system in vertebrates is formed as a default when early embryonic cells do not receive inductive signals to become mesoderm or endoderm. He also pioneered the technique of *in vitro* transcription with bacterial SP6 RNA polymerase. This RNA transcription system is now widely used to make large amounts of messenger RNAs in vitro and is, for example, the basis for production of the COVID mRNA vaccines.
In the mid-1990s, work in his lab became centered on the development of the pancreas aiming to find new treatments for diabetes.
In 2001 when President George W. Bush cut federal funding of embryonic stem cell research, Melton used private donations to create 17 published human stem cell lines and distributed them without charge to researchers around the world.
In August 2008, Melton\'s lab published successful in vivo reprogramming of adult mice exocrine pancreatic cells into insulin secreting cells which closely resembled endogenous islet beta cells of the pancreas in terms of their size, shape, ultrastructure, and essential marker genes. Unlike producing beta cells from conventional embryonic stem cells or the more recently developed induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technique, Melton\'s method involved direct cell reprogramming of an adult cell type (exocrine cell) into other adult cell type (beta cell) without reversion to a pluripotent stem cell state.
His current research interests include pancreatic developmental biology and the directed differentiation of human embryonic stem cells, particularly in pertinence to type 1 diabetes. In 2014, he reported a method using human pluripotent stem cells to generate virtually unlimited quantities of functional insulin-producing beta cells that respond appropriately to a glucose challenge.
In 2022, Melton left Harvard University and joined Vertex Pharmaceuticals full-time to create diabetes treatments.
## Awards and honors {#awards_and_honors}
Melton was elected a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1995. In 2007 and again in 2009, Melton was listed among the *Time* 100 Most Influential People in the World. In 2016, Melton was awarded the Ogawa-Yamanaka Prize in Stem Cell Biology. In 2023 he received the Abarca Prize for his advances towards a cure for diabetes

# Polish American Football League
The **Polish American Football League** or shortly **PLFA** (*Polska Liga Futbolu Amerykańskiego*) was a structured system for the American football competitions in Poland founded in 2004 by the Polish federation PZFA. In 2012, the **Topliga** was created as a major league with a bid (invitation) rule. The remaining teams are divided into two leagues (**PLFA I** and **PLFA II**) between which there was promotion and relegation. There were two eight-man football competitions: **PLFA 8** for reserve teams and smaller clubs, and **PLFA J** for under-17 players.
The top four teams from the Topliga regular season entered the playoffs and the winners met in the championship game called the **SuperFinał** (more commonly known as the *Polish Bowl*). The PLFA I championship game was called the PLFA Cup Game.
In the 2013 season there were 74 teams in 5 leagues. 57 teams played 11-man football (8 teams in the Topliga, 8 teams in the PLFA I and 21 teams in the PLFA II) and other 37 teams played 8-man football competitions: 20 senior teams and 17 junior teams). The TopLiga and PLFA I are divided into two divisions, PLFA II into three divisions, and PLFA 8 and PLFAJ into five divisions based on geographical reasons.
After the 2017 season, there was a split in Polish American football, 20 clubs left the PLFA and founded a new league, the Liga Futbolu Amerykańskiego or shortly **LFA**.
## History
American football is arguably the fastest growing sport in Poland, which appeared in Poland in 1999, when a pioneer initiative was established in Warsaw. The Polish American Football Association (*Polski Związek Futbolu Amerykańskiego* or *PZFA*) was created in November 2004, initiated by the first two American football teams: Warsaw Eagles and 1. KFA Wielkopolska. Its founding was a response to the dynamic growth of the American football movement in Poland.
The first game between Polish teams (still without professional equipment) was played in December 2005 in Poznań. The first international game, officiated by professionals, was played in March 2006 -- The Warsaw Eagles took on Czech team Pardubice Stallions in a game played in Warsaw. From that moment on, teams began to be established in different parts of the country.
The Polish American Football League started in October 2006 with just 4 teams. There were 9 teams competing for the second championship in 2007. In 2008, the league split into two divisions - PLFA I (8 teams) and PLFA II (9 teams). There were 22 teams competing for the 2009 season and 21 for the 2010 season. 2011- 34 teams, 2012- 42 teams, and 2013- 74 teams.
## Season structure {#season_structure}
The regular season in the Topliga starts in March/April and ends in June/July. Each team plays nine games competing against every other team in the division (4 or 5 home games and 5 or 4 away games). A team is awarded two points for a win, one point for a tie, and zero points for a loss (a tie only occurs if the overtime can not be played).
After a regular season, the top four teams qualify for the play-offs (1st place against 4th place and 2nd against 3rd) and the Semi-Final winners meet in the championship game called SuperFinal; there is no 3rd place game.
The 2012 Super-Final championship game drew 23,000 fans.
## Game rules {#game_rules}
Playing rules are based on those of the NCAA College football with minor modifications, e.g.:
- 12-minute quarters
- minimal field markings
- unsportsmanlike conduct for excessive celebration after plays, similar to the NFL rules
- no Instant replay
Rules are adopted with a one-year delay. For example, 2011 NCAA game rule changes was adopted for 2012 PLFA season.
Before 2012, coaches, players and officials used the English-language NCAA Rulebook. In February 2012, the Rulebook was translated into Polish by the Officiating Department chairman.

# Black-tailed nativehen
The **black-tailed nativehen** (***Tribonyx ventralis***) is a rail native to Australia.
## Description
The black-tailed nativehen is a large dark bird, reaching about 38 cm in length and weighing around 400 g. This species possesses an erect tail and is endowed almost entirely with brownish-grey and green feathers. Its long legs and lower jaw are a striking pink-orange colour, as well as its eyes which are more of a bright orange colour. This species is not excessively vocal, its main call is an alarm \'kak\' sound. They become noticeable when they are seen in small flocks on the ground. Their erect tails and social behaviour are reminiscent of domestic hens.
## Habitat
This species is nomadic, following seasonal water sources. It is found year-round living near fresh and brackish water.
## Distribution
The black-tailed nativehen is common throughout Australia, where it lives by permanent as well as intermittent water sources. It has a large range, with an estimated global extent of occurrence of 1,000,000--10,000,000 km^2^. It is classified as Least Concern by IUCN. It is a rare vagrant to New Zealand, and occasional to Tasmania.
## Reproduction
Breeding generally takes place between August and December or when conditions are favourable. A cup-shaped nest is built in vegetation near water or swampland. 5--7 pale green eggs are laid and incubated for approximately 20 days.
## Diet
This species\' diet consists of insects, plant material and seeds. In farming areas, the black-tailed nativehen is capable of causing crop damage

# ChiWriter
**ChiWriter** is a commercial scientific text editor for MS-DOS, created by Cay Horstmann in 1986. It was one of the first WYSIWYG editors that could write mathematical formulas, even on IBM PC XT computers.
The basic idea of ChiWriter is that a user can add lines above or below the current text line (by half of the base line height), and write text there too. The additional lines are treated as part of the original text line. This can be used to create subscripts and superscripts, and also more complex formulae such as fractions. Combined with the possibility to use several fonts (up to 20) at once, including ones supporting Greek, Cyrillic, and mathematical symbols, ChiWriter facilitated the writing of mathematical texts. Every font has the same fixed dimensions, but different sets are available for different output devices (for example, a low-resolution fonts for screen, and high-resolution fonts for printers). Users can manually create larger objects (such as sums and integrals) by using several symbols for each part of the object.
The editor is quite customizable. A font editor allows modifying fonts and introducing user-designed fonts (including proportional ones) and symbols.
By 1988 the company advertised ChiWriter (\"completely \'what-you-see-is-what-you-get\'\") and optional accessories, such as support for graphics beyond EGA graphics, 24-pin printers, and laser printers. The editor was more oriented to speed and interactive aspect of editing, rather than on visual appearance of the result, therefore, it has its own graphical user interface with bitmap fonts of fixed width. Although popular (easier to use than TeX for many scientists), this`{{clarify|date=February 2023}}`{=mediawiki} led to its demise as more text editors with vector fonts for Microsoft Windows began to appear, and in 1996, it has been discontinued.
Recently people experience some difficulty with exhibiting ChiWriter documents. A simple solution takes into consideration the fact that in the quality printing mode ChiWriter outputs bit-image print codes which can be redirected into a file (default extension .bin). In the heydays of the editor, the codes Epson ESC/P were the most frequently used. Utility [**chipbm**](http://daze.ho.ua/softe.htm) converts used by ChiWriter subset of bit-image print codes into a file Portable anymap (.pbm) which is loaded by many graphical utilities. For example, utility GIMP allows saving a page afterwards in Portable Document Format (.pdf).
It is still possible to run the application on modern computers, using DOS virtualization software, like VirtualBox or DosBox. This allows to convert the documents into the PostScript format (.ps), using the provided PostScript printer driver. PostScript format can be directly converted into Portable Document Format (.pdf) format

# Eliza Howland
**Eliza Newton Woolsey Howland** (1835 -- 1917) was an American author and the wife of Union Army officer Joseph Howland.
## Life
Howland was born in 1835 to a prominent New York City family active in philanthropy and social reform, especially abolitionism and the decent care of the mentally ill. Her parents were Charles William Woolsey, a descendant of an early English settler in what was then the Dutch colony of New Amsterdam, and Jane Eliza Newton of Alexandria, Virginia.
At the age of nineteen, she married Joseph Howland, the son of Samuel Shaw Howland, a New York City shipping magnate. The couple honeymooned in Europe and the Holy Land. During the Italian leg of their trip, the couple commissioned marble busts of themselves from the neoclassical sculptor, Giovanni Maria Benzoni. After their honeymoon, Joseph and Eliza Howland moved to Tioronda, an estate Joseph bought along the banks of the Fishkill Creek in Matteawan, New York, present-day Beacon, New York.
During the American Civil War, Joseph joined the Sixteenth New York Volunteers and served until he was seriously wounded during the Seven Days Battles of the Peninsular Campaign. According to family letters, she began her contribution to the war effort by making pillowcases and hospital gowns for the army.
## Works
During her husband\'s absence, Howland and her sister Georgeanna Woolsey wrote constantly to each other, their correspondence being eventually published in 1899 as *Letters of a family during the Civil War, 1861-1865*. This book was republished in 2001 as *My Heart Towards Home: letters of a family during the Civil War.* Howland also wrote and privately printed *Family records: being some account of the ancestry of my mother and father Charles William Woolsey and Jane Eliza Newton* in 1900.
In 1885, Joseph Howland died while on a trip to Menton, France. Eliza Howland left their estate at Tioronda and never returned to it, claiming that the memories of her husband made staying in the house too difficult.
She died in Newport, Rhode Island, in 1917 at the age of 82. After her death the family\'s estate at Tioronda became Craig House, a hospital for the mentally ill

# Electricity Directive 2019
The **Electricity Directive 2019** ([2019/944](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A02019L0944-20220623)) is a Directive in EU law concerning rules for the internal market in electricity.
## Background
The first Electricity Directive 96/92/EC on common rules for the internal market in electricity aimed to create an internal market for electricity. Concrete provisions were thought to be needed to ensure a level playing field in generation and to reduce the risks of market dominance and predatory behaviour, ensuring non-discriminatory transmission and distribution tariffs, through access to the network based on third-party access rights and on the basis of tariffs published prior to their entry into force, and ensuring that the rights of small and vulnerable customers are protected and that information on energy sources for electricity generation is disclosed, as well as reference to sources, where available, giving information on their environmental impact.
To ensure efficient and non-discriminatory network access, the updated Directive sought to ensure distribution and transmission systems are operated through legally separate entities where vertically integrated undertakings exist. Independent management structures had to be in place between the distribution system operators, the transmission system operators, and any generation/supply companies. Legal separation does not imply a change of ownership of assets and nothing prevents similar or identical employment conditions applying throughout the whole of the vertically integrated undertakings. However, a non-discriminatory decision-making process should be ensured through organisational measures regarding the independence of the decision-makers responsible.
The 1996 Directive was updated and replaced by the Electricity Directive 2003/54/EC, followed by Directive 2009/72/EC, and then the current Electricity Directive 2019/944.
## Contents
Articles 3 to 6 require that different enterprises have rights to access infrastructure of network owners on fair and transparent terms, as a way to ensure different member state networks and supplies can become integrated across the EU.
Article 8 requires that electricity or gas enterprises acquire a licence from member state authorities
Article 35 requires that there is legal separation into different entities of owners of networks from retailers, although they can be owned by the same enterprise, to ensure transparency of accounting

# Victor Danielsen
**Victor Danielsen** (28 March 1894 -- 2 February 1961) was the first Faroese Bible translator and Plymouth Brethren missionary. Victor Danielsen played a pivotal role in the Plymouth Brethren\'s establishment in the Faroe Islands after it was introduced there by William Gibson Sloan in the late nineteenth century.
## Biography
Victor Danielsen was born in the settlement of Søldarfjørður on the island of Eysturoy. In 1911, Danielsen started training as a teacher in Tórshavn and completed his course in 1914. He was appointed teacher at the schools in Søldarfjørður, Glyvrar and Lamba. He quit his teaching positions, however, after only six months to pursue his vocation as a missionary.
Danielsen quit the established Faroese People\'s Church in 1916 and attached himself to the Brøðrasamkoman (Faroese Plymouth Brethren). He married in 1920 and moved with his wife to Fuglafjørður, where he worked as a full-time worker in Siloa Assembly and itinerary missionary for the Faroese Plymouth Brethren.
In 1930, the assembly of the Plymouth Brethren in Tórshavn requested Danielsen translate the Epistle to the Galatians into the Faroese language. The resulting translation so enthused the congregation that Danielsen was requested to translate the entire New Testament as well. This translation was published in March 1937, a few weeks before the publication of Jákup Dahl\'s translation, which had been authorised by the Faroese People\'s Church.
Upon the completion of the translation New Testament, Victor Danielsen pushed forward with the translation of the Old Testament, a task he completed in 1939. Danielsen\'s translation, however, based itself on other modern languages whereas Dahl\'s translation was based on the original Hebrew text. Because of the Second World War, Danielsen translation wasn\'t published until 1949. The translation of Dahl and Kristian Osvald Viderø wasn\'t published until 1961.
Victor Danielsen was known as an extraordinarily energetic and productive man. Apart from his Bible translations, he versified 27 Psalms and translated 800 Psalms and hymns, as well as writing two novels of a religious nature. Victor Danielsen died at Fuglafjørður

# Rotorua Lakes District
**Rotorua Lakes District** or **Rotorua District** is a territorial authority district in the North Island of New Zealand. It has one urban area of significant size, the city of Rotorua. The district is governed by Rotorua Lakes Council, which is headquartered in Rotorua and is headed by a mayor. The district falls within two regional council areas, with the majority of the area and Rotorua city in the Bay of Plenty Region and the rest in the Waikato region. Tania Tapsell has been the mayor of Rotorua since the 2022 local elections.
## History
Rotorua has an unusual history, as the town was built by the Government as a tourist destination in the 1880s. Through the Rotorua Borough Act 1922, which achieved royal assent on 28 September 1922, the Rotorua Borough was formed. The inaugural elections for mayor were held in February 1923 and Cecil Clinkard was successful. In 1962, Rotorua was proclaimed a city. In 1979, the status was changed to a district when Rotorua City and Rotorua County amalgamated. The district council held its first meeting on 2 April 1979. At the 27 November 2014 council meeting, it was decided to change the operating name of the council to Rotorua Lakes Council, while the official name would remain unchanged. Since then, the district has been known as Rotorua Lakes`{{clarify|date=February 2021|reason=See Talk page.}}`{=mediawiki} and the council\'s web domain changed from *www.rdc.govt.nz* to *rotorualakescouncil.nz*.
## Geography
Rotorua Lakes covers 2409 sqkm. The district\'s area is 61.52% in the Bay of Plenty region and 38.48% in the Waikato region . Adjacent districts (in a clockwise direction starting in the north) are Western Bay of Plenty, Whakatāne, Taupō , and South Waikato.
The Bay of Plenty portion of the district includes the settlements of Rotorua, Ngongotahā Valley, Mamaku, Hamurana, Mourea, Rotoiti Forest, Lake Rotoma, Lake Okareka, Lake Tarawera , Rerewhakaaitu , and Kaingaroa Forest . The Waikato portion includes the settlements of Waiotapu , Reporoa, Broadlands , Mihi , Waikite Valley, Ngakuru, and Ātiamuri.

# Army Combat Shirt
The **Army Combat Shirt** (**ACS**) is a flame-resistant shirt developed and used by the United States Army as a supplementary addition to the Army Combat Uniform (ACU). The ACS is a stand-alone shirt designed specifically for use with the Improved Outer Tactical Vest (IOTV) in warm and hot weather instead of the blouse, and was introduced in 2007. It is intended to greatly increase user comfort through the use of lightweight, moisture-wicking, and breathable fabrics. The ACS was created in conjunction with the USMC\'s Flame Resistant Organizational Gear (FROG). The ACS, in conjunction with the Fire Resistant ACU (FRACU) trousers, provides neck-to-ankle protection against burns.
## Background
Traditionally, flame-resistant uniforms have been reserved for military personnel such as aviators, fuel handlers and combat vehicle crew who were most likely to encounter fuel-related fires. However, the increasing frequency of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) in Afghanistan and Iraq during the 2000s greatly increased need for flame-resistant clothing and uniforms.
## History
### 2000s
#### 2007: Introduction
In January 2007, the Army began shipping 160,000 flame-resistant Nomex uniforms - The Flame Resistant ACU - for soldiers assigned to at-risk convoy operations. However, the Nomex uniforms restricted air movement more than the traditional Cotton/Nylon ACU and were hotter for soldiers to wear. In the mid-2000s, Program Executive Office (PEO) Soldier developed the ACS to provide soldiers with a lightweight, breathable and flame-resistant alternative to the Nomex ACU. Fielding of the ACS began in September of 2007, with two each issued to every soldier being deployed overseas.
### 2010s {#s_1}
#### 2016--2019: Ballistic Combat Shirt {#ballistic_combat_shirt}
Currently`{{when|date=May 2024}}`{=mediawiki} the U.S. Army is working on an armored variant of the Army Combat Shirt known as the \"Ballistic Combat Shirt\", which adds ballistic protection to the upper thorax, lower neck, and upper sleeve areas while sacrificing as little arm mobility as possible. This has been desirable due to the increasing prevalence of low-profile body armor which does not support the additional extremity protection the IBA system does, as well as ergonomic issues with the extremity protection that causes soldiers to choose not to use them even when wearing compatible armor. It will begin fielding in 2019.

# Army Combat Shirt
## Overview
Initially, the torso of the shirt was foliage green with the Army Strong logo centered on the chest (removed in later versions); the arms are in the Universal Camouflage Pattern similar to the Army Combat Uniform, with integrated anti-abrasion elbow pads. No-seam shoulders minimize rubbing or chafing against armor. With the adoption of the MultiCam (OEF-CP) pattern for use in Afghanistan, a version was made with a Tan 498 body and MultiCam sleeves. When the US Army adopted the Operational Camouflage Pattern starting in 2015, a third variant became available which complies to the US Army uniform regulations code AR 670-1 (Wear and Appearance of Army Uniform and Insignia) with a tan/green body (Tan 499) and sleeves in the OCP pattern. Other features include a double pen pocket on the lower arm, zippered storage pockets on the upper arm, concealable infrared identification tabs, and a place to attach name, rank, and flag on the upper arm. There are two styles of the ACS available for soldiers. The Type I has a mock turtle neck and the Type II has a Mandarin style collar with a 3/4 zipper on the chest/neck. The features of all three shirts, besides the collar differences from the two types, are all the same.
The ACS is constructed of three flame-resistant performance fabrics proprietary to TenCate Protective Fabrics or Massif Mountain Gear Company. The shirt's torso is constructed of two highly breathable flame-resistant fabrics with advanced moisture management capabilities. Both fabrics wick moisture away from the skin and dry rapidly, preventing the fabrics from sticking to the user's skin in order to reduce heat stress and greatly increase comfort when wearing body armor. The sleeves and side panels of the shirt are constructed of a lightweight, but durable and abrasion-resistant fabric designed to provide extra protection for areas not protected by body armor. All three fabrics feature 4-way stretch for enhanced performance and user comfort

# Sum and Product Puzzle
The **Sum and Product Puzzle**, also known as the **Impossible Puzzle** because it seems to lack sufficient information for a solution, is a logic puzzle. It was first published in 1969 by Hans Freudenthal, and the name *Impossible Puzzle* was coined by Martin Gardner. The puzzle is solvable, though not easily. There exist many similar puzzles.
## Puzzle
*X* and *Y* are two whole numbers greater than 1, and *Y* \> *X*. Their sum is not greater than 100. S and P are two mathematicians (and consequently perfect logicians); S knows the sum *X* + *Y* and P knows the product *X* × *Y*. Both S and P know all the information in this paragraph.
In the following conversation, both participants are always telling the truth:
- S says \"P does not know *X* and *Y*.\"
- P says \"Now I know *X* and *Y*.\"
- S says \"Now I also know *X* and *Y*.\"
What are *X* and *Y*?
## Explanation
The problem is rather easily solved once the concepts and perspectives are made clear. There are three parties involved, S, P, and O. S knows the sum *X+Y*, P knows the product *X·Y*, and the observer O knows nothing more than the original problem statement. All three parties keep the same information but interpret it differently. Then it becomes a game of information.
Let us call the split of a number *A* into two terms *A=B+C* a 2-split. There is no need for any advanced knowledge like Goldbach\'s conjecture or the fact that for the product *B·C* of such a 2-split to be unique (i.e. there are no other two numbers that also when multiplied yield the same result). But with Goldbach\'s conjecture, along with the fact that P would immediately know X and Y if their product were a semiprime, it can be deduced that the sum x+y cannot be even, since every even number can be written as the sum of two prime numbers. The product of those two numbers would then be a semiprime.
The following steps give the solution:
1. S (Sue), P (Pete), and O (Otto) make tables of all products that can be formed from 2-splits of the sums in the range, i.e. from 5 to 100 (*X* \> 1 and *Y \> X* requires us to start at 5). For example, 11 can be 2-split into 2+9, 3+8, 4+7, and 5+6. The respective products are 18, 24, 28, and 30 and the players put a tick mark beside each of these products in their tables (Table 1). When they are done, some numbers have no tick marks, some have one, and some have more than one.
2. Sue now looks at her sum and all its 2-splits. She sees that all 2-splits have products that are not unique, i.e. there exists a different factorization that is a 2-split of some other possible sum. She sees this from the table in Step 1 where all her products have more than one tick mark. She realises that because of this fact, Pete will be unable to uniquely determine the factors *X* and *Y* by looking at the product (that would have required at least one of the candidate products to have only one tick mark). Thus she exclaims \"P cannot know *X* and *Y*\". When Pete and Otto hear this, they get the information that none of the products associated with Sue\'s sum are unique. By going through the possible sums, one by one, Sue, Pete, and Otto can now, each one by themselves, make a list of all eligible sums (Table 2). The table contains those sums all of whose 2-splits have products that are non-unique, i.e. have more than one tick mark in Table 1. Sue, Pete, and Otto have created the table of candidate sums (Sue of course already knows her sum but needs to trace Pete\'s thinking).
3. Considering the new information in Table 2, Pete once again looks at his product. The sums of all of the possible 2-splits of his product except one have disappeared from Table 2 compared to all numbers between 5 and 100 that were considered as sums from the outset. The only one that remains must be the sum of the two hidden numbers *X* and *Y* whose product *X·Y* he knows. From the sum and the product, it is easy to know the individual numbers and thus he tells Sue that \"Now I know *X* and *Y*\". Pete is now done and exits the game.
4. Sue and Otto recalculate Table 1, this time only counting products of 2-splits from sums that are in Table 2 instead of from all numbers in the range 5 to 100 as in the original Table 1. This updated table is called Table 1B. Sue looks at all the products of the 2-splits of her sum and finds that only one of them appears **exactly once** in Table 1B. This must then be the product Pete has, and she can infer the two numbers from their sum and product as easily as Pete did. Thus, she tells Otto (Pete is already gone) that \"Now I also know *X* and *Y*\". Sue is now also done and exits the game, only Otto remains.
5. From the information in Step 4, Otto scans all sums in Table 2 in search for one of which only a single 2-split has a single tick mark in Table 1B. The desired one can only have one tick mark, or Sue would not have been able to know *X* and *Y* with certainty. Finally, Otto arrives at the desired sum which also happens to be the only one with these properties, making the original problem solvable with a unique solution. Otto\'s task is now done as well.
## Solution
The solution has *X* and *Y* as 4 and 13, with P initially knowing the product is 52 and S knowing the sum is 17.
Initially P does not know the solution, since
: 52 = 4 × 13 = 2 × 26
and S knows that P does not know the solution since all the possible sums to 17 within the constraints produce similarly ambiguous products. However once P knows that S believes there are multiple possible solutions given the product, P can rule out 2 x 26, as in that case the sum is 28, and even sums are ruled out by Goldbach\'s conjecture as above.
So P now knows the numbers are 4 and 13 and tells S that he knows the numbers. From this, S now knows that of the possible pairs based on the sum (viz. 2+15, 3+14, 4+13, 5+12, 6+11, 7+10, 8+9) only one has a product that would allow P to deduce the answer, that being 4 + 13. The reader can then deduce the only possible solution based on the fact that S was able to determine it. Note that for instance, if S had been told 97 (48 + 49) and P was told 2352 (48 \* 49), P would be able to deduce the only possible solution, but S would not, as 44 & 53 would still be a logically possible alternative.

# Sum and Product Puzzle
## Other solutions {#other_solutions}
The problem can be generalized. The bound *X* + *Y* ≤ 100 is chosen rather deliberately. If the limit of *X* + *Y* is altered, the number of solutions may change. For *X* + *Y* \< 62, there is no solution. This might seem counter-intuitive at first since the solution *X* = 4, *Y* = 13 fits within the boundary. But by the exclusion of products with factors that sum to numbers between these boundaries, there are no longer multiple ways of factoring all non-solutions, leading to the information yielding no solution at all to the problem. For example, if *X* = 2, *Y* = 62, *X* + *Y* = 64, *X*·*Y*=124 is not considered, then there remains only one product of 124, viz. 4·31, yielding a sum of 35. Then 35 is eliminated when S declares that P cannot know the factors of the product, which it would not have been if the sum of 64 was allowed.
On the other hand, when the limit is *X* + *Y* ≤ 1685 or higher, there appears a second solution *X* = 4, *Y* = 61. Thus, from then on, the problem is not solvable in the sense that there is no longer a unique solution. Similarly, if *X* + *Y* ≤ 1970 or higher a third solution appears (*X* = 16, *Y* = 73). All of these three solutions contain one prime number. The first solution with no prime number is the fourth which appears at *X* + *Y* ≤ 2522 or higher with values *X* = 16 = 2·2·2·2 and *Y* = 111 = 3·37.
If the condition *Y* \> *X* \> 1 is changed to *Y* \> *X* \> 2, there is a unique solution for thresholds *X* + *Y* ≤ *t* for 124 \< *t* \< 5045, after which there are multiple solutions. At 124 and below, there are no solutions. It is not surprising that the threshold for a solution has gone up. Intuitively, the problem space got \"sparser\" when the prime number 2 is no longer available as the factor *X*, creating fewer possible products *X·Y* from a given sum *A*. When there are many solutions, that is, for higher *t*, some solutions coincide with those for the original problem with *Y* \> *X* \> 1, for example *X* = 16, *Y* = 163.
If the condition *X* + *Y* ≤ *t* for some threshold *t* is exchanged for *X·Y* ≤ *u* instead, the problem changes appearance. It becomes easier to solve with less calculations required. A reasonable value for *u* could be *u* = *t*·*t*/4 for the corresponding *t* based on the largest product of two factors whose sum are *t* being (*t*/2)·(*t*/2). Now the problem has a unique solution in the ranges 47 \< *t* \< 60, 71 \< *t* \< 80, 107 \< *t* \< 128, and 131 \< *t* \< 144 and no solution below that threshold. The results for the alternative formulation do not coincide with those of the original formulation, neither in number of solutions, nor in content

# Will Schofield
**William John Schofield** (born 24 January 1989) is an Australian rules footballer who formerly played for the West Coast Eagles in the Australian Football League (AFL). At 196 cm tall and weighing 92 kg, he is a versatile defender who has played key-position and half-back roles throughout his career. West Coast drafted him from the Geelong Falcons with pick 50 in the 2006 national draft, and debuted in round 17 of the 2007 AFL season. Schofield has played in two AFL Grand Finals: a loss in 2015 and a victory in 2018. He achieved life membership at West Coast in 2016 after playing 150 games for the club. He retired following the 2020 season.
In April 2023, Schofield came out of retirement to assist the Eagles in the West Australian Football League (WAFL) due to a club injury crisis.
Schofield currently hosts the BackChat Podcast with former Eagles teammate Hamish Brayshaw and journalist Dan Const and also appears on Fox Footy matches broadcast out of Perth.
## Junior career {#junior_career}
Originally from Geelong, Victoria, Schofield played junior football for Newtown & Chilwell Football Club, Geelong College in the Associated Public Schools of Victoria (APS) competition, and the Geelong Falcons in the TAC Cup. He was named in Geelong College\'s 2001--2010 Team of the Decade at full back. Schofield was also a strong track athlete in his youth, and was invited to participate internationally on a scholarship.
## AFL career {#afl_career}
### 2007--2013: Early career {#early_career}
Schofield was drafted by West Coast with the 50th pick overall in the 2006 national draft, and made his senior debut for West Coast in round 17 of the 2007 season against the Western Bulldogs at Docklands Stadium. From 2007 to 2009, Schofield usually represented Peel Thunder in the West Australian Football League (WAFL), playing 41 WAFL matches over the three seasons. In the same period, he played 15 AFL matches. In 2010, Schofield began to play more often in the AFL, reaching 20 games in a season for the first time in his career. He played 12 of the first 13 matches in the 2011 AFL season, signing a two-year contract extension (to the end of 2013) in the middle of the year. Schofield polled one vote in the 2011 Brownlow Medal; `{{as of|alt=as of 2018|2018|12|22}}`{=mediawiki} he has not polled another in his career. Schofield finished the season with 23 games, followed by a 20-game season in 2012.
Schofield played 16 matches in the 2013 AFL season, averaging 7.8 kicks, 4.3 handballs and marks, and 2.2 tackles per game. 2013 was also the first season Schofield played for East Perth in the WAFL as part of the West Coast--East Perth alignment. Notable games from his AFL season included a 14-disposal, nine-mark, three-tackle effort against the Western Bulldogs in round 6; a round 16 Western Derby where he amassed six marks, 17 disposals, two goals and seven hit-outs; and a round 19 match against Gold Coast where he recorded four tackles, five marks, two goals and 14 disposals. In round 8, Schofield overcame a compound dislocation of his finger to play out the final quarter of the match: coach John Worsfold praised his efforts and estimated he would miss \"a couple of weeks\" after surgery.

## AFL career {#afl_career}
### 2014--2018: Grand final success {#grand_final_success}
In the 2014 AFL season, Schofield played 14 AFL matches and three WAFL matches. Going into the 2015 AFL season, he increased his size by four kilograms to improve his play against larger opponents, encouraged by coach Adam Simpson. He missed the last game of the NAB Challenge and round 1 of the home-and-away season after hurting his ankle. Key defenders Eric Mackenzie and Mitch Brown suffered serious knee injuries in the NAB Challenge and round 1 respectively, forcing Schofield to play as a key defender rather than a running half-back. In round 12, playing against Richmond, he injured his glute late in the game. Simpson was unable to estimate how many weeks he would miss. Schofield suffered another injury, this time to his calf, against Sydney in round 17. He was substituted at the end of the third quarter. Simpson was unsure whether Schofield\'s calf was strained or merely corked. After playing in a draw against Gold Coast -- the first of his professional career -- Schofield said he liked extra time and golden point systems present in other sports and suggested it would be interesting to implement them in the AFL. In the grand final against Hawthorn, he recorded 12 disposals and three marks. Schofield commented that Hawthorn \"were just way too good\" and \"it took us too long to get into gear\", but said the loss would be a \"driving force\" over the pre-season.
In early 2016, Schofield signed a three-year contract extension with West Coast (until the end of 2019). During the 2016 AFL season, he achieved life membership at West Coast after playing 150 games for the club. Schofield played 22 AFL games for the year. In 2017, Schofield was a \"sporadic pick\" for the senior side. During half-time in a match against Melbourne, Schofield was reported by umpire Brett Rosebury for striking after knocking Clayton Oliver on the chin with his elbow. He was offered a one-match suspension by the AFL Tribunal as the strike was graded as intentional with low impact. The charge was successfully challenged and the impact was downgraded to negligible. However, Schofield still missed a match against the Western Bulldogs due to a hip injury. Overall, he played 10 games for the 2017 season.
Before the 2018 AFL season, Schofield lost weight in an attempt to increase his versatility. He anticipated pressure on his backline spot from other West Coast defenders, but said he would use it as motivation. He impressed in a WAFL match against Perth in April, recording 18 disposals and nine rebounds from half-back. A month later, he injured his hamstring halfway through the first quarter in a loss to South Fremantle and could not play out the match. After returning to the AFL, he suffered another hamstring injury against Fremantle in the first quarter, and did not return to the field after receiving treatment. Schofield was expected to miss two matches after scans revealed a minor strain. After returning against Brisbane, Schofield\'s place in the backline was under pressure in the lead-up to West Coast\'s first final as Lewis Jetta returned from a calf injury. He was dropped from the side, but returned in the preliminary final after Brad Sheppard injured his hamstring. Schofield commented, \"To be left out was really disappointing, but I pretty quickly came to the realisation that it wasn\'t the end of the season.\" Fellow defender Tom Barrass praised Schofield\'s mindset and was confident he would be able to cover the loss of Sheppard in the grand final. In the grand final, Schofield played on Collingwood forward Jordan De Goey and won several one-on-one match-ups at critical moments. He played all possible time on field, becoming the sixth West Coast player to do so in a grand final. Schofield said post-match he had been nervous about playing on De Goey, but said it was part of his defensive role and he had tried his best. At the conclusion of the WAFL season, Schofield polled one vote in the 2018 Sandover Medal.
### 2020: Final season {#final_season}
Schofield played four games for the Eagles in 2020 and retired from the AFL at the conclusion of the season.
### 2023: Return to the WAFL {#return_to_the_wafl}
In April 2023, Schofield came out of retirement to assist the Eagles in the West Australian Football League (WAFL) due to a club injury crisis.
## Personal life {#personal_life}
Schofield has two brothers: Romney and Jason. His mother is Jan Schofield; his father John Schofield died in 2012. He has a wife, Alex, and a son named Nash.
In 2013, Schofield was attacked while in Geelong after a round 22 loss to Collingwood. He suffered a broken cheek and serious bruising to the face, causing him to withdraw from the last match of the season. A man pleaded guilty to the unprovoked assault in the Geelong Magistrates Court.

# David Snow (ornithologist)
**David William Snow** (30 September 1924 -- 4 February 2009) was an English ornithologist born in Windermere, Westmorland.
## Career and personal life {#career_and_personal_life}
He won a scholarship to Eton and started there in 1938 just before his 14th birthday. He won a scholarship to study classics at New College, Oxford but was called up to serve in the navy in April 1943 and served on several ships including destroyers, frigates, and sloops. After the end of World War II, he spent a year sailing through the Far East and to Australia. In 1946 he returned to Oxford and switched from classics to the study of zoology, earning a D.Phil degree in 1953.
In 1958, David married Barbara Kathleen Whitaker, who was the warden of Lundy Island. Barbara Snow was also a noted ornithologist and a geologist. From 1957 to 1961 the Snows worked for the New York Zoological Society at the society\'s research centre in Trinidad. Here they made detailed studies of the oilbirds (*Steatornis caripensis*) and the fascinating and very complex courtship dances of the white-bearded manakin (*Manacus manacus*) and the golden-headed manakin (*Pipra erythrocephala*).
From 1963 to 1964 he was the Director of the Charles Darwin Research Station (CDRS) in the Galapagos Islands. He was Director of CDRS during the landmark expedition mounted from the University of California at Berkeley called the Galápagos International Scientific Project (GISP). He was also Director of Research for the British Trust for Ornithology from 1964 to 1968. Snow gave the 1977 Witherby Memorial Lecture on the subject of \'The relationships between the African and European avifaunas\'. From 1968 to 1984 he worked at the Natural History Museum. From 1987 to 1990 he was president of the British Ornithologists\' Union.
David Snow edited *The Ibis*, *Bird Study* and the *Bulletin of the British Ornithologists\' Club*.
Snow is commemorated in the name of the cotinga genus *Snowornis* and the critically endangered Alagoas antwren (*Myrmotherula snowi*).
> \"With his wife, Barbara, Snow made a huge contribution to our understanding of the evolutionary consequences of fruit-eating in birds. In a series of studies of tropical birds, he theorised that the colourful plumage and elaborate mating rituals of male manakins and similar species derived from the fact that copious supplies of fruit enabled the birds to secure adequate daily calories with only a small percentage of their time devoted to feeding. This left them plenty of opportunity to develop elaborate rituals to impress the dowdier females. In England, the Snows spent five years carrying out systematic observations of fruit-eating birds in a small area on the Hertfordshire-Buckinghamshire borders, publishing their results in the seminal Birds and Berries (1988).\"
Following Barbara\'s death in 2007, he published *Birds in Our Life*, an account of their lives and their close ornithological partnership.
Snow died at age 84 and is survived by two sons.
## Awards
In 1972 David and his wife Barbara were joint recipients of the American Ornithologists\' Union\'s Brewster Medal.
He was elected president of the British Ornithologists\' Union and in 1982 was awarded its Godman-Salvin Medal for outstanding contributions to ornithology.

# Shire of Yalgoo
The **Shire of Yalgoo** is a local government area in the Mid West region of Western Australia, about 500 km north of the state capital, Perth. The Shire covers an area of 28215 km2, and its seat of government is the town of Yalgoo.
## History
The original Yalgoo Road District was gazetted on 3 July 1896, and abolished and divided between the Mount Magnet Road District and Upper Irwin Road District on 11 August 1911.
The Shire of Yalgoo originates from the establishment of the second Yalgoo Road District on 19 April 1912, which was formed out of parts of the Mount Magnet, Upper Irwin and Murchison road boards. On 1 July 1961, it became the Shire of Yalgoo under the *Local Government Act 1960*, which reformed all remaining road districts into shires.
## Wards
The Shire is no longer divided into wards and the seven councillors sit at large.

# Font editor
A **font editor** is a class of application software specifically designed to create or modify font files. Font editors differ greatly depending on if they are designed to edit bitmap fonts or outline fonts. Most modern font editors deal with the outline fonts. Bitmap fonts uses an older technology and are most commonly used in console applications. The bitmap font editors were usually very specialized, as each computing platform had its own font format. One subcategory of bitmap fonts is text mode fonts.

# Rebecca Paul (lottery official)
**Rebecca Paul** (born Feb 1949 as **Rebecca Sue Graham**) is currently the President and CEO of the Tennessee Lottery. Prior to assuming her current position in 2003, Paul gained national fame within the lottery community for operating lotteries in Illinois, Florida, and Georgia.
In 1986 Florida voters elected Republican Bob Martinez as governor, and at the same time, voted in favor of establishing a state lottery to aid education. The new governor recruited Paul as the state\'s first Lottery Secretary, due largely to her reputation for having turned the Illinois lottery from a moribund operation into one of the most successful lotteries in the United States. Paul was then brought to Georgia for the same purpose in 1993, after Georgia voted to start up a lottery as well.
Paul was already the highest paid lottery official in the United States, prior to being recruited to Tennessee with an even larger compensation package. She is widely regarded as the pre-eminent lottery official in the United States, being described by one state legislator as the \"Michael Jordan\" of lotteries.
In 2022 she was elected president of the World Lottery Association.
## Pre-lottery years and personal life {#pre_lottery_years_and_personal_life}
Paul, a native of Indianapolis, Indiana, is an alumna of Butler University, where she earned a BS degree (1970) and an MS degree (1975) from the College of Education.
Paul was selected as Miss Indiana 1972, and was the fourth runner-up in the 1973 Miss America Pageant, losing to Terry Anne Meeuwsen (best known as co-host of *The 700 Club*). After her pageant days, Paul was hired as a \"weather girl\" at a station in Indianapolis. She married Terry Paul, a construction executive and 1968 graduate of Butler University, and in 1977, when he took a new position in Illinois, she was hired at WICS, the then-NBC affiliate in Springfield, Illinois. While living in the state capital, Paul became involved with Republican party politics, rising to the position of party co-chair, before being tapped to run the Illinois Lottery.
In 1999, while Paul was living in Atlanta and running that state\'s lottery, her husband died. When she moved to Tennessee, she met state legislator Jere Hargrove, who was a Democratic member of the Tennessee House of Representatives. Hargrove did not seek re-election in 2006, and the day after the election, on November 8, 2006, Hargrove and Paul were married in 2006 by Governor Phil Bredesen in the governor\'s mansion. She and Hargrove were divorced in 2021

## Football career {#football_career}
Sahnoun was born in Guerrouma, Algeria the son of a harki, and his family settled in Beauvais, France in 1962. Ten years later, at only 17, he made his professional debuts with FC Nantes, under Jean Vincent. A talented offensive player, he appeared however intermittently for the club due to heart problems, only posting two productive seasons in seven years, especially 1976--77 where he scored 15 times in 32 matches, as the Pays de la Loire team won the fourth Ligue 1 title in their history.
Sahnoun gained six caps for France, his debut coming on 23 February 1977 in a friendly with West Germany, in Paris. At the end of the year, he suffered a cardiac alert which cause him to put his career on hold for a few months; subsequently, he would not make the list for the 1978 FIFA World Cup in Argentina.
After having returned to active, Sahnoun played one year for FC Girondins de Bordeaux, being regularly used in a team that finished in sixth position. On 21 April 1980, four months shy of his 25th birthday, during club training, he died from a heart attack.

# Jansgeleen Castle
**Jansgeleen Castle**, now erroneously called *Sint-Jansgeleen* or *Sint Jansgeleen*, was a medieval castle in the little village of Spaubeek, in the Dutch province of Limburg. Spaubeek is located in the municipality of Beek, about 3 km south of the town of Geleen. Spaubeek was a separate municipality until 1982, when it was merged with Beek.
The history of Spaubeek was closely connected to that of Jansgeleen Castle. This castle, built as *House Spaubeek* at a bench in the small Geleen river in the 13th century, was the first seat of the former County of Geleen in the 16th century. It got its name *Heer Jansgelene* after one of the former owners, Lord Jan Rode van Opsinnich in the 15th century, but was later erroneously renamed as Sint Jansgeleen after St. John the Baptist.
The castle, already in a bad shape at the end of the 19th century, and further damaged by the mine galleries of the nearby big Maurits mine at Geleen in the 1920s, was finally demolished in the 1930s. Only the buildings of the water mill (*Jansmolen*, hence *Sint Jansmolen*) and the forecourt (16th century) have remained, now both provincial monuments.

# National symbols of Nicaragua
**National symbols of Nicaragua** are the symbols that are used in Nicaragua and abroad to represent the country and its people.
## National Symbols of Nicaragua {#national_symbols_of_nicaragua}
The Flag of Nicaragua was adopted in 1971 and is based on the former flag of the United States of Central America. The colors of the Nicaraguan flag originate from the flag of the former federation of the United Provinces of Central America. The two blue stripes represented the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea ; while white symbolizes peace. A modern interpretation indicates that the color blue symbolizes justice and loyalty.
### Coat of arms {#coat_of_arms}
The Nicaraguan Coat of Arms has undergone many changes since its adoption in 1823, the most recent version was introduced in 1971. The triangle means equality, the rainbow means liberty and the five volcanoes express the union and brotherhood of all five Central American countries.
### Anthem
The national anthem, Salve a ti, Nicaragua, was approved October 20, 1939, and officially adopted August 25, 1971. The lyrics were written by Salomon Ibarra Mayorga. The Nicaraguan national anthem is the shortest in the Americas and is the only one that does not proclaim war. It was sung for the first time on December 16, 1918.
### Flower
The national flower is known as the sacuanjoche. The sacuanjoche flower (*Plumeria*) grows on a conical tree that flowers around May. Sacuanjoche flowers are most fragrant at night in order to lure sphinx moths to pollinate them. The flowers have no nectar, and simply dupe their pollinators.
### Tree
The national tree is the Madroño (*Calycophyllum candidissimum*; in English, also known as degame, lemonwood, etc.).
### Bird
The national bird of Nicaragua is the Guardabarranco. It has a mostly green body with a rufous back and belly. There is a bright blue stripe above the eye and a blue-bordered black patch on the throat. The flight feathers and upperside of the tail are blue. The tips of the tail feathers are shaped like rackets and the bare feather shafts are longer than in other motmots
Guardabarrancos (alias zopilote) can be seen in forests throughout Nicaragua, mostly in the southwest of the country. Their habitat is not limited by city boundaries, as this bird can even be seen in Nicaragua\'s capital city, Managua

# 2007 North Tyneside Metropolitan Borough Council election
Elections to **North Tyneside** Metropolitan Council took place on 3 May 2007 on the same day as other local council elections in England.
North Tyneside Council is elected \"in thirds\" which means one councillor from each three-member ward is elected each year for the first three years with a fourth year when the mayoral election takes place.
Against the national trend, the only gain was made by David Corkey of the Labour Party in Chirton Ward, from an Independent candidate, so the council remains in no overall control, but with the Conservative Party having the most councillors overall.

# Sofia Fedorova
**Sofia Vasylievna Fedorova** (*Софья Васильевна Фёдорова*; 28 September 1879, in Moscow, Imperial Russia -- 3 January 1963, in Neuilly-sur-Seine, near Paris, France) was a Russian ballerina.
## Biography
She graduated from the Bolshoi School in 1899 and joined the Bolshoi Ballet, where she was most admired as a character ballerina. She danced with the Diaghilev Ballet from its beginning in 1909, dancing major roles throughout the entire history of the Diaghilev Ballet. Fedorova continued to dance with the Bolshoi until 1917, dancing also with Diaghilev\'s and Anna Pavlova\'s companies. Her husband was Pyotr Olenin, a Russian opera singer and opera director. After his death in 1922 she immediately went into exile in France, where she continued to dance ballet.
Her last performance was with the Diaghilev Ballet in 1928. Then her illness took over. She endured her ordeal courageously, drifting from one mental institution to another. In 1963 at the age of eighty-three her obituary read, \"*She lived quietly between outbursts of consciousness and delirium.*\". Among her students is Cuban prima ballerina assoluta/choreographer Alicia Alonso

# Jeremy Allison
**Jeremy Allison** is a computer programmer known for his contributions to the free software community, notably to Samba, a re-implementation of SMB/CIFS networking protocol, released under the GNU General Public License.
Other contributions include the early versions of the pwdump password cracking utility.
## Career
### Free software evangelism {#free_software_evangelism}
During his career, Jeremy Allison has consistently defended the free software approach:
- He pitched making Vantive Corporation code free software to its founder.
- He persuaded Michael Tiemann to use the GNU General Public License for Cygwin.
- He similarly convinced Tim Wilkinson to put the Kaffe virtual machine for Java under the GPL.
- He was involved in Silicon Graphics\' decision to put XFS for Linux under the GPL.
This commitment to free software culminated with his decision to leave Novell in protest of a patent deal that was considered by many as a FUD attack on Linux and other free software, and by Allison as breaking section 7 of the GNU General Public License

# Henry Turner (basketball)
**Henry Frank Turner** (born August 18, 1966) is a retired American professional basketball player, who played at the shooting guard and small forward positions. He grew up in Martinez, California.
## College career {#college_career}
Turner played college basketball at California State University, Fullerton, with the Cal State Fullerton Titans. He graduated in 1988.
## Professional career {#professional_career}
Turner had a two-season stint in the NBA, with the Sacramento Kings (1989--90 and 1994--95), with little impact -- he averaged 3 points and one rebound per game, in 66 regular season games combined.
In Europe, Turner played mainly in Italy in the top-tier Lega Basket Serie A, representing Emmezeta Udine (Italian 2nd Division), Panna Firenze (Italian 2nd Division), Ducato Siena (Jun--Oct 1998), BingoSNAI Montecatini, Müller Verona, and Adecco Milano). He also had spells in Turkey, with the Turkish League club Fenerbahçe, and in Greece, with the Greek Basket League clubs Panionios and Maroussi.
While playing in Greece for Panionios during the 1993--94 season, Turner thrilled the crowds with his performances and stunning slam dunks. Both came together in one memorable first-half performance against PAOK in the semi-final of the Korać Cup. In front of a full-house of raucous Panionios fans, Turner scored 30 points in the first-half, and capped it with a 360 degree dunk that had the supporters (and game commentator) in delirium. Unfortunately for Turner and Panionios, they faded in the second-half, and lost a 20-point lead and the game, by a score of 83--85, with Turner ending up with 37 points. Nevertheless, the first half remains etched in the memory of Panionios fans, and more generally, followers of Greek basketball from that unforgettable era.
While playing with Fenerbahçe, Turner was granted Turkish citizenship, and played under the name **Hakkı Uzun**.
## Post-playing career {#post_playing_career}
Turner retired from playing basketball in 2002, at age 36, and went on to work as a basketball analyst for Comcast, with co-hosts Jim Kozimor, Kayte Christensen, and Lafayette Lever, covering Sacramento Kings games

# 5010th Combat Support Group
With the departure of the 97th Bombardment Wing, the Eielson Air Force Base Wing (Base Complement) was formed on 1 April 1948. On 20 April 1948, it was designated the **5010th Air Base Wing**, and would be the host unit at the base until 1964.
The wing provided support to reconnaissance squadrons of Air Weather Service from 1949 through 1958. The wing also hosted Strategic Air Command units on temporary deployment to Eielson, playing host to Boeing B-29 Superfortresses, Convair B-36 Peacemakers and finally B-47s. In fact, the largest hangar on Eielson today, now used for Exercise Cope Thunder, was originally built to house two B-36 bombers, the largest bomber ever in Air Force inventory.
Construction boomed at Eielson AFB during the wing\'s tenure in the 1950s. Many of the facilities still in use today were built at that time -- Amber Hall, the Thunderdome, Base Exchange, Commissary, Gymnasium, Theater, Base Chapel, some of the schools and many of the dormitories, just to name a few.
The quick response of the 5010th Combat Support Group to the Chena River flood (12--21 August 1967), and the subsequent help provided to Fairbanks and other communities led to the 5010th's third Air Force Outstanding Unit Award. The AFOUA was awarded on 17 November 1967.
On 1 October 1981, the 343rd Wing, as the **343d Composite Wing**, replaced the 5010th Combat Support Group absorbing its personnel and equipment, as Eielson\'s host unit.

# The £1,000,000 Bank Note and Other New Stories
***The £1,000,000 Bank Note and Other New Stories*** is an 1893 collection of short stories by American writer Mark Twain.
## Background
The collection was published in 1893, in a disastrous decade for the United States, a time marked by doubt and waning optimism, rapid immigration, labor problems, and the rise of political violence and social protest.
It was also a difficult time for Twain personally, as he was forced into bankruptcy and devastated by the death of his favorite daughter, Suzy. Yet the title story still brims with confidence and optimism, marking the moment of hope just before Twain turned to the grim stories of his later years

# MG 14/40
The **MG 14/40** or **MG 14/40 Mark IV** is a sports car that was made by MG and launched in 1927. It was based on the contemporary Morris Oxford flatnose and was a development of the MG 14/28 and was built at Edmund Road, Cowley, Oxford where MG had moved in September 1927. During production it became the first model to carry an MG Octagon badge on its radiator, the previous cars had retained a Morris Oxford badge.
The change of name from 14/28 to 14/40 seems mainly to have been a marketing exercise and the reason for the Mark IV is unclear although it has been suggested that it represented the fourth year of production. Available for sale at your local Ford dealer. Externally the cars are very difficult to tell apart.
There were some changes to the 14/28 chassis and suspension and the brake servo was deleted. Production ended in 1929, after approximately 700 cars had been built

# 58th Weather Reconnaissance Squadron
The **58th Reconnaissance Squadron** is an inactive United States Air Force squadron. Its last was assigned to the 9th Weather Reconnaissance Wing at Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico, where it was inactivated in 1974.
## History
Activated as the **400th Fighter Squadron** in early 1943 under Fourth Air Force; spent World War II in the United States as an Operational Training Unit (OTU), initially equipped with P-39 Airacobras for advanced fighter training. Reassigned to Third Air Force in 1944, becoming a Replacement Training Unit (RTU) for A-36 Apache fighter-dive bomber ground attack aircraft.
Reassigned to Stuttgart AAB, Arkansas in 1945 and redesignated as the **58th Reconnaissance Squadron (Weather)**, a long-range strategic weather reconnaissance squadron, training with B-25 Mitchells and long-ranger P-61C Black Widow Night Fighters modified for weather reconnaissance missions. Reassigned to Rapid City AAB, South Dakota in late 1945, using P-61Cs as part of a NACA/Air Weather Service Thunderstorm Project to learn more about thunderstorms and to use this knowledge to better protect civil and military airplanes that operated in their vicinity. The P-61\'s radar and particular flight characteristics enabled it to find and penetrate the most turbulent regions of a storm, and return crew and instruments intact for detailed study. Inactivated in 1946 as part of the general demobilization of the AAF.
Reactivated as part of Strategic Air Command in 1951 in Alaska, Equipped with very long range WB-29 Superfortresses 1951, upgrading to extended long-range WB-50D Superfortresses in 1956. Conducted long-range weather flights over the Arctic and along the northern periphery of the Soviet Union; the aircraft being equipped with sensors for detecting radioactive debris to gather evidence when the Soviets tested nuclear devices. Inactivated in 1958 as part of the phaseout of the WB-50s from SAC and development of faster jet aircraft for the long-range intelligence mission.
The squadron was reactivated in 1963 at Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico, assuming the assets of the discontinued 1211th Test Squadron. The squadron was equipped with twelve RB-57F Canberra (later WB-57F) reconnaissance aircraft. Most of the RB-57Fs were converted B-57Ds (a few were B-57Bs) equipped with two TF33 engines in place of the B-57B\'s J65, plus a pair of auxiliary J60s for high altitude and long range reconnaissance. Part of their duties involved high-altitude atmospheric sampling and radiation detection work in support of nuclear test monitoring. Over the next decade the RB-57Fs were flown on a worldwide basis at very high altitudes at high speeds. Stress cracks began appearing in the wing spars and ribs of the RB-57Fs after a few years of service. Some were sent to General Dynamics for repairs. Due to the excessive cost of repairing all the aircraft, nine were placed in storage at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona, in 1972.
The 58th WRS, the last squadron in the Air Force to use the WB-57F Canberra, was inactivated on July 1, 1974, after placing its planes in storage at Davis-Monthan.

# Cefalù Cathedral
The **Cathedral of Cefalù** (*Duomo di Cefalù*) is a Roman Catholic basilica in Cefalù, Sicily. It is one of nine structures included in the UNESCO World Heritage Site known as Arab-Norman Palermo and the Cathedral Churches of Cefalù and Monreale.
The cathedral was erected between 1131 and 1240 in the Norman architectural style, the island of Sicily having been conquered by the Normans in 1091. According to tradition, the building was erected after a vow made to the Holy Saviour by the King of Sicily, Roger II, after he escaped from a storm to land on the city\'s beach. The building has a fortress-like character and, seen from a distance, it dominates the skyline of the surrounding medieval town. It made a powerful statement of the Norman presence.
## History
The cathedral was built in a long-populated area, as attested by the presence of a Roman road and a Paleo-Christian mosaic. Construction began in 1131, the apse mosaics were begun in 1145, and the sarcophagi that Roger II provided for his tomb and that of his wife were put in place the same year. After 1172 the church suffered a period of decline. In 1215 Frederick II of Hohenstaufen moved the two sarcophagi to the Cathedral of Palermo. Construction of the cathedral was resumed soon after, the façade being completed in 1240. The cathedral was consecrated in 1267 by Rodolphe de Chevrières, Bishop of Albano.
In 1472 a portico, by Ambrogio da Como, was added between the two towers of the facade.
## Description
### Architecture
The cathedral is preceded by a large terraced parvis, which was originally a cemetery. According to tradition, it was created with earth brought from Jerusalem, which was believed to have qualities that caused the rapid mummification of corpses.
The façade is characterized by two large Norman towers with mullioned windows, each surmounted by a small spire added in the 15th century. Each spire is different: one has a square plan surrounded by flame-shaped merlons, the latter symbolizing the Papal authority and the mitre; the other has an octagonal plan and Ghibelline merlons, symbolizing the royal and temporal power.
The 15th-century portico has three arches, the two outer being pointed, supported by four columns and vaulting ribs. Under the portico is the *Porta Regum* (Kings\' Door), with a finely decorated marble portal flanked by wall paintings.
The interior of the cathedral is on the Latin cross plan, divided into a nave and two aisles by arcades of antique columns: fourteen in pink granite and two in cipolin. The bases and capitals are from the 2nd century AD. Two large capitals supporting the triumphal arch of the nave were probably made by a Sicilian workshop in the mid-12th century. The roof of the nave was lowered, as can be seen from the exterior of the building. The transept is higher than both the nave and aisles. While parts of the building are barrel-vaulted and parts have an open timber roof, the presbytery has a ribbed vault of stone.
Beyond the crossing, the church is unusual in combining a style that is essentially Romanesque in its massive simple forms with the Gothic pointed arch. This feature is also seen in Monreale Cathedral. It is a forerunner of the Gothic style which was to develop in the region of Paris within a few years.
The church has three apses, an arrangement also seen in Sicily at Monreale Cathedral. The two lower side apses have the upper tiers of the exterior decorated by blind arcading of small crossed arches and sculpted corbels, also seen used extensively at Monreale. The corbels date from 1215 to 1223 and portray masks, heads of animals, and human figures in contorted positions. The corbels of the central apse are more recent. The central apse originally had three large ocular windows, which were later closed to give space for the mosaic, and a larger central window of ogival shape. Two other pairs of circular windows are located at the transept\'s ends.
#### Cloister
The cathedral has a cloister that can be entered from within the church. The arcade has pointed arches, each of which rests on slender, paired columns. The form is not different from that of Spanish and some French cloisters; the composite capitals of the coupled columns are Norman and other more generically Romanesque in their motifs. This cloister is the model for the successive Norman cloisters of Sicily, in particular that of the Monreale.

# Cefalù Cathedral
## Description
### Artwork
#### Presbyterium mosaic {#presbyterium_mosaic}
It was probably planned that the entire church be decorated in mosaic, but this was completed only in the presbyterium area. Mosaic still covers the apse and about half of the side walls. Roger II brought masters in the technique of mosaic from Constantinople. They adapted their traditional Byzantine decorative art to an architectural structure that was of northern European origin.
The dominant figure of the decorative scheme is the bust of Christ Pantokrator, portrayed on the semi-dome of the apse with a hand raised in Benediction. In his left hand he carries the Gospel of John, in which can be read, in Greek and Latin: \"I am the light of the world, who follows me will not wander in the darkness but will have the light of life\" (John, `{{bibleverse-nb||John|8:12|KJV}}`{=mediawiki}).
In the upper tier of the apsidal wall is depicted the Blessed Virgin Mary, her hands raised in obsecration, flanked by four archangels. In the second and third tiers, on either side of the central window, are figures of apostles and evangelists, placed according to a planned theological programme.
The mosaic decoration extends into the presbyterium, with the side walls showing figures of prophets and saints. On the right wall, adjacent to the royal throne, are royal figures, while on the left side, adjacent the bishop\'s throne, are priestly figures. Each figure is accompanied by an inscription, in Greek or Latin, describing the character portrayed. The decoration of the cross-vaulted ceiling depicts four cherubim and four seraphim.
The chief figures, that of Christ Pantokrator and the Virgin Mary, are clothed in blue, given luminosity by a background of gold tiles. The work is of the highest order, displaying elegance in the draping of the figures\' robes and in the sensitivity of their faces and gestures. It is considered the finest Byzantine mosaic in Italy and comparable to other fine Late Byzantine work from Constantinople.
The Byzantine mosaic decoration was completed before 1170. The lower part and the side walls of the presbyterium were not completed until the 17th century. They covered preceding paintings of which scarce traces remain today.
#### Other artwork {#other_artwork}
Of the original painted decoration, a figure of Urban V from the late 14th century, on a column on the left aisle; and a \"Madonna enthroned\" from the 15th century, in the left arm of the transept, remain.
The basilica houses several funerary monuments, including a late Antique sarcophagus, a medieval one, and the notable sepulchre of the Bishop Castelli of the 18th century.
The 12th-century baptismal font, carved from a single block of stone, is decorated with four small sculpted lions. The church also houses a canvas of the Madonna from Antonello Gagini\'s workshop (16th century) and a painted wooden cross by Guglielmo da Pesaro (1468). The organ is a large two-manual instrument with detached console and plain pipework, sitting above a panelled wooden case.
The nave\'s ceiling has a painted decoration with busts, fanciful animals and other motifs, probably the work of Arabic craftsmen.
Starting in 1985, the Palermo artist Michele Canzoneri was commissioned and has installed 72 modern, abstract, stained-glass windows based on episodes from the Old and New Testaments. These have aroused some controversy for their style.
#### Palæo-Christian mosaic {#palæo_christian_mosaic}
Excavations in the cathedral area have brought to light parts of a 6th-century polychrome mosaic. They depict a dove drinking, parts of two other birds, two small trees, and a lily-shaped flower, enclosed in a frame with ogival and lozenge motifs.
This mosaic belonged probably to a pre-existing Byzantine basilica. This area of Cefalù was frequented at least up to the 8th century, when it was an episcopal see

# Movia (transit agency)
**Trafikselskabet Movia** is the public transport agency that is responsible for buses and certain local railways in Copenhagen and the part of Denmark east of the Great Belt. Its remit covers the regions Sjælland and Hovedstaden, except for Bornholm. The company is owned by the two regions and by the 45 municipalities it services, excluding Bornholm.
It does not own any buses and trains itself, but pays subcontractors to run them. It is a part owner of train company Lokaltog, and has an integrated fare system in collaboration with the Copenhagen metro and DSB, which means that the same tickets are valid on all buses and trains.
## History
Movia was created on January 1, 2007, as part of the 2007 municipal reform. Its predecessors were the county transit agencies of the old Vestsjællands Amt and Storstrøms Amt, and *HUR Trafik* which covered the old \"capital region\" consisting of Roskilde Amt, Frederiksborg Amt, and Københavns Amt (plus the independent municipalities of Copenhagen and Frederiksberg). Each of the three agencies had its own integrated fare system, which have been continued by Movia as three distinct \"fare areas\", with small changes to the existing inter-agency fare rules.
The agency implemented a new fare system which replaced most paper tickets by contactless smartcards. It is fully implemented in the western Zealand (Vestsjælland) and southern Zealand (Sydsjælland) fare areas, and in the capital area (Hovedstadsområdet).
## Services
Movia has eleven night bus lines which operate between the hours of 01:00 and 05:00. Buses generally depart on the hour or every second hour. Bus stop signs of night bus routes are recognisable by their grey colour. Various A-bus, S-bus and R-bus lines also have departures at night or have departures at night after Friday and Saturday

# Lola Griffin
**Lola Griffin** (also **Williams**) is a fictional character from the BBC medical drama *Holby City*, played by actress Sharon D. Clarke. She first appeared in the series seven episode \"Patience\", broadcast on 7 June 2005. Lola is characterised as a \"tough\" female and \"wisecracking earth mother\". She was introduced into the series as the ex-wife of established character Ric Griffin (Hugh Quarshie). Clarke has praised the character\'s inclusion because she is a black woman with power, which she believed was a diverse and positive depiction. When the actress left the show in 2008, writers produced a standalone episode built around her exit. When Lola learns she is being made redundant, she takes a job at another hospital. Lola left in the episode titled \"Mad World\", which was broadcast on 14 October 2008. In December 2018, it was announced that Clarke had agreed to reprise the role and Lola appears for one episode in January 2019.
## Development
### Characterisation
Lola arrives at Holby City hospital to take the role of a new consultant. She is the ex-wife of established character Ric Griffin (Hugh Quarshie). BBC Online describes the pair as having \"banter and competitiveness\" formed from \"years of familiarity and former intimacy\". They added \"get on the wrong side of her and you\'ll know about it.\" She is also characterised as a \"feisty\" woman who is \"controlling yet compassionate\".
As *Holby City* is a medical show, the actress had to learn much of the terminology spoken in the profession. Clarke wanted to understand most of it to make Lola appear authentic. She told a reporter from *Metro* that \"if i\'m saying quickly, in passing, I'll just learn it phonetically, parrot fashion, and try to make it trip off the tongue like I've always said it.\" She also learned how to correctly perform a tension pneumothorax to aid her performance.
When she first arrives at the hospital Ric is annoyed at the prospect of working with her. He becomes stressed and decides to leave to work in Ghana. Quarshie told Graham Kibble-White from the *Western Mail* that his \"larger-than-life ex-wife Lola has just rolled up in Holby and I think her appearance is the last straw for him, so he decides to take a job in Ghana.\"
Lola becomes involved in various storylines with Ric\'s family. When Ric\'s daughter Jess Griffin (Verona Joseph) objects to his engagement to Thandie Abebe-Griffin (Ginny Holder), she tries to involve Lola in the feud. This leads to Lola and Ric clashing, with him warning her to stay out of his personal life. The argument takes its toll on Lola and when she discusses hospital business with Lord Byrne (Ronald Pickup) she clutches her chest and collapses from a major heart attack. Her fellow colleagues then battle to save her life.
Another main story for Lola begins when a patient dies and Lola believes her baby daughter Leanne needs caring for. Lola incorrectly believes her father Steve Spence (Karl Haynes) is a drug addict. She takes Leanne home with her which gets her into trouble with Ric. Lola develops a bond with Leanne and she over invests in her care. Lola is later forced to let Leanne go and live with Steve. She later becomes concerned for Leanne\'s welfare and visits her home alongside Consultant Dan Clifford (Peter Wingfield). They hear Leanne crying and decide to break into the property where they find Steve unconscious. Steve dies and Lola is offered care of Leanne. She decides she cannot look after a child full time and have a career and lets Leanne go.
Producer\'s later began a rivalry between Lola and consultant Linden Cullen (Duncan Pow). Linden arrives to reshape the hospital\'s Acute Assessment Unit ward, which Lola had been running temporarily. A *Daily Express* writer observed that the pair end up \"in a battle for supremacy\" with nursing consultant Mark Williams (Robert Powell) caught in the middle of their feud.
In 2008, Lola and registrar Joseph Byrne (Luke Roberts) appear in the show\'s spin-off series HolbyBlue, they appear as witnesses after a patient is stabbed and Jac Naylor (Rosie Marcel) is arrested.

# Lola Griffin
## Development
### Departure
Clarke announced her departure during a live television interview on 22 May 2008. Lola was not written out of the series later that year, departing in the episode titled \"Mad World\", which was broadcast on 14 October 2008. The show devised it as an entire standalone episode around the character\'s exit. Lola learns that she is going to be made redundant and takes a job at a private psychiatric hospital. Clarke told a reporter from the *Birmingham Mail* that her character would not leave \"without getting her due\". She receives a large payout and reveals she has secretly applied for another job with more power. She added \"there\'s a company car, she\'s got her own office and there are massive grounds.\" In the episode Lola discovers her former colleague Abra Durant (Ade Edmondson) is a patient at the hospital. She investigates his case and convinces him to leave and regain control of his life. The job soon proves to be not what Lola had expected. She makes a decision to leave the area for good. Clarke concluded that \"she\'s already been told she\'s there to dish out pills and not get involved. Lola\'s always been hands-on and, after an incident, she\'s reminded of what she loves.\"
Clarke was happy with her achievements on *Holby City* and being part of a diverse cast. She was particularly content with her character holding such power. She told Roz Laws (*Birmingham Mail*) that \"When I started out in my acting career, I found I was always cast as a nurse. I was finally able to break out of that in Holby City, when I played Dr Lola Griffin and finally had some power. It was boundary-breaking, not casting black actors to push up quotas or push trolleys.\" She later reflected \"I\'m very proud to have had people come up to me and say that their daughter became a doctor because of Holby. I remember being on set one day and looking around and seeing six black women in the scene. Where else on screen was that going to happen?\" She later described playing the character as one of her career highlights. The actress stated that she got a \"positive reaction\" from viewers and added that Lola was special because of \"her strength as a black woman with authority\".
### Return
On 11 December 2018, it was announced that Clarke had reprised the role of Lola for one episode scheduled to air in January 2019. Lola\'s return coincides with the show\'s twentieth anniversary and Lola will interact with Ric. Of her return Clarke stated \"I was very proud to bring her to life and be a part of the Holby family. I'm so excited to be treading the wards again, and seeing what Lola will be getting up to for Holby's 20th Anniversary. Hey, Ric, Lola's back in town!\" Executive producer Simon Harper said that it was \"a great coup for the show\" to have Clarke back. He added \"we couldn\'t let the anniversary pass without the appearance of one of Ric\'s many ex-wives to ruffle his feathers.\"
## Reception
For her portrayal of Lola, Clarke won the \"Female Performance in TV\" accolade at the 2007 Screen Nation Film and Television Awards. Mark Lawson from *The Guardian* branded the character \"a powerful woman\". Jane Simon from the *Daily Mirror* included Lola\'s exit episode in her \"pick of the day\" feature. She added that the episode gave Clarke a chance to showcase her singing skills. Simon later branded her \"nice, grandmother-quoting Lola\". An *Inside Soap* writer described Lola as a \"much-loved\" character and a *Birmingham Mail* writer branded her a \"big-hearted medic\".
Jon Wise from *The People* criticised Lola\'s heart attack story. He jibed \"over at Holby City it\'s gone from emergency to panto in one flick of the surgeon\'s knife. Lola\'s heart attack was like something out of Prisoner Cell Block H - and Lola, left, looks like she\'s come from there as well.

# Drew Petrie
**Drew Petrie** (born 15 October 1982) is a former professional Australian rules footballer who played for the North Melbourne Football Club and the West Coast Eagles in the Australian Football League (AFL). He came out of retirement in 2019 to play for the West Coast Eagles in the Western Australian Football League (WAFL).
## AFL career {#afl_career}
Petrie debuted in 2001 and played more than 300 games for North Melbourne Football Club. He played in a variety of roles for the Kangaroos including centre half-forward, defence and ruck. In a game against the Western Bulldogs in 2007 he helped inspire North Melbourne to a win in Glenn Archer\'s 300th match, kicking seven goals---six of them in the first quarter.
Petrie was selected by coach Mick Malthouse for Australia in the International Rules series against Ireland as a utility player. He was a key player during the second test at MCG, scoring two overs (three points each) in quick succession early in the last quarter. He added a goal (six points) in the final minute giving Australia some hope of snatching a win. In the end, however, Ireland won the series by five points (on aggregate).
Petrie was named vice-captain of North Melbourne at the start of the 2009 season and filled-in for the newly appointed captain, Brent Harvey, who missed half the season with an elbow injury. Petrie was North Melbourne\'s top goal scorer in 2009 with 27 goals and again in 2011 with 48.
After missing most of the 2010 season. In 2011, Petrie was selected in the All-Australian Team on the interchange.
Early in the season Petrie struggled to have the same impact as the previous year. However the forward was still finding ways to get on the scoreboard, kicking a respectable 12 goals in the first seven games. From that point he turned on an impressive feat of goal kicking form, managing 46 in the final 15 matches despite being used as a decoy on multiple occasions. Petrie kicked 23 goals between rounds 16 and 19 to temporarily lead the Coleman Medal. His final tally of 58 goals was the highest of his career and pushed him past 250 career goals.
Petrie was instrumental in North\'s 2014 elimination final defeat of arch rival Essendon by kicking the final 2 goals of the game to seal victory.
In August 2016, North Melbourne announced they would not renew Petrie\'s contract for the 2017 season. He was subsequently drafted by the West Coast Eagles in the 2017 rookie draft. Drew Petrie played the final game of his AFL career in the 2017 semi final, where he recorded one goal, seven disposals and five marks in a 67-point loss to `{{AFL GWS}}`{=mediawiki}.
In 2019 a lack of numbers generally and a lack of tall forwards contributed to the West Coast Eagles requesting Drew, then an assistant coach pulled back on the boots to play for the WAFL side

# Gloster Southern Railroad
The **Gloster Southern Railroad** `{{reporting mark|GLSR}}`{=mediawiki} was a United States shortline railroad that operated in Mississippi and Louisiana. The GLSR began operation in 1990 and provided freight service from Gloster, Mississippi, to the Illinois Central Railroad (now Canadian National) interchange at Slaughter, Louisiana.
The line was owned by Georgia-Pacific (GP) which had purchased and refurbished 35 mi of an abandoned branch line to provide service to a GP oakwood mill in Gloster. The GLSR operated four or five freight trains per week until the plant closed in December 2002. One year later, Genesee & Wyoming acquired three short-line railroads from GP. However, this sale did not include the GLSR.
In September 2004, GP announced that they would re-open the Gloster oakwood mill. However, they did not continue to operate the GLSR. The *McComb Enterprise Journal* reported on April 2, 2008, that the Georgia-Pacific Corporation is closing its railroad and that the town of Gloster was interested in the rail bed.
The Gloster Southern Railroad applied to discontinue service on its entire line in December 2009, and crews began removing the railway and roadbed. By June 2013, it was reported that all of the track had been moved and sold for recycling.

# Shannon Watt
**Shannon Watt** (born 26 November 1980) is a former Australian rules footballer for the North Melbourne Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).
From Cavendish in rural Victoria, Watt, a key defender, was drafted at number 14 in the 1997 National AFL Draft from the North Ballarat Rebels. Watt completed year 12 (final year of school) at University High School whilst in his first year at the club (1998). He played as a fullback until Jonathan Hay came to the club in 2006 who unsuccessfully filled the role of centre half-back.
Despite playing 155 AFL games, Watt never polled a single vote in the Brownlow Medal. Watt was one of the last individuals to have played every minute of every game for an entire season on the ground (no interchange time) in [2003](http://afltables.com/afl/stats/players/S/Shannon_Watt.html), a feat practically unheard of in the modern era.
He announced his retirement from the game on 20 August 2009

# Mary O'Hara
**Mary O\'Hara** (born 12 May 1935) is an Irish soprano and harpist from County Sligo. She gained attention on both sides of the Atlantic in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Her recordings of that period influenced a generation of Irish female singers who credit O\'Hara with influencing their style, among them Carmel Quinn, Mary Black and Moya Brennan. In his autobiography *Memoirs of an Irish Troubadour* (2002), Liam Clancy wrote how her music inspired and influenced him and others of the folk revival period.
## Early life and career {#early_life_and_career}
Mary O\'Hara is the daughter of Major John Charles O\'Hara, an officer in the British Corps of Royal Engineers, and his wife, Mai (née Kirwan). One of her sisters was actress Joan O\'Hara, and her nephew is playwright Sebastian Barry.
O\'Hara won her first competition, Sligo\'s annual Music and Drama singing competition, at the age of eight, and made her first radio broadcast on Radio Éireann before she left school at the age of 16. She went on to perform at Edinburgh International Fringe Festival with the Dublin University Players, BBC\'s *Quite Contrary* and *The Ed Sullivan Show*, before she starred in her own BBC television series. Her first recording contract was with Decca Records. Part of her extensive music career included spending a considerable amount of time on the Aran Islands collecting folk music and acquiring fluent Irish.
She was the subject of *This Is Your Life* in 1978 when she was surprised by Eamonn Andrews while filming at the National Motor Museum, Beaulieu.
## Personal life {#personal_life}
She was introduced to American poet Richard Selig by Irish poet Thomas Kinsella and she married Selig in 1956. She moved to the United States with him. Selig died of Hodgkin\'s disease 15 months after their marriage. O\'Hara continued to tour and record for four years.
In 1962, she became a Benedictine nun at Stanbrook Abbey in England, where she stayed for 12 years. Her wedding band was melted down and made into a ring to celebrate her profession of solemn vows as a member of the Benedictine Order in 1967.
O\'Hara\'s initial rise to a high profile was repeated in 1974 when she left the monastery for the sake of her health, found that her musical reputation had grown during her time in the cloister, and returned to performing. In a matter of months, she became one of the biggest international recording stars to come out of Ireland. Her 1981 album *The Scent of the Roses* was produced by Andrew Pryce Jackman and Jo Stewart.
The title of her 1980 autobiography, *The Scent of the Roses*, is taken from one of her favourite songs by Irish poet Thomas Moore. Her other books include *Celebration of Love*, and the coffee table book *A Song for Ireland*.
She continued her singing career for a further 16 years, retiring from performing in 1994. In 1985, she married Pádraig O\'Toole, who was instrumental in the development of her career from 1974. They spent six years in Tanzania where her husband taught at the Tanzania School of Journalism, at the University of Dar es Salaam. A musical play about her life, *Harp on the Willow* by John Misto, was a great success in Australia in early 2007. Mary O\'Hara completed five volumes of her harp accompaniments and still travels, giving talks at locales such as the Yeats International Summer School, Sligo (2007), the O\'Carolan Festival, Keadue, County Roscommon (2008), Northern Lights Harp Festival, Ottawa (2009), New York University (2009), and Boston College (2009). The Burns Library at Boston College houses her papers and held a \"Mary O\'Hara\" exhibition ending on 30 April 2010.
As of 2016, O\'Hara resides on the Aran Islands, off the west coast of Ireland. O\'Toole died in 2015.
## Influence in modern culture {#influence_in_modern_culture}
O\'Hara\'s recording of \"Óró Mo Bháidín\" is sampled in Passion Pit\'s 2008 single \"Sleepyhead\" and Sub Focus\' song \"Safe in Sound\" from the album *Torus*. The melody is also used in Chris de Burgh\'s \"A Spaceman Came Travelling\" as part of the chorus.

# Darboux frame
In the differential geometry of surfaces, a **Darboux frame** is a natural moving frame constructed on a surface. It is the analog of the Frenet--Serret frame as applied to surface geometry. A Darboux frame exists at any non-umbilic point of a surface embedded in Euclidean space. It is named after French mathematician Jean Gaston Darboux.
## Darboux frame of an embedded curve {#darboux_frame_of_an_embedded_curve}
Let *S* be an oriented surface in three-dimensional Euclidean space **E**^3^. The construction of Darboux frames on *S* first considers frames moving along a curve in *S*, and then specializes when the curves move in the direction of the principal curvatures.
### Definition
At each point `{{math|''p''}}`{=mediawiki} of an oriented surface, one may attach a unit normal vector `{{math|'''u'''(''p'')}}`{=mediawiki} in a unique way, as soon as an orientation has been chosen for the normal at any particular fixed point. If `{{math|''γ''(''s'')}}`{=mediawiki} is a curve in `{{math|''S''}}`{=mediawiki}, parametrized by arc length, then the **Darboux frame** of `{{math|''γ''}}`{=mediawiki} is defined by
: $\mathbf{T}(s) = \gamma'(s),$ (the *unit tangent*)
: $\mathbf{u}(s) = \mathbf{u}(\gamma(s)),$ (the *unit normal*)
: $\mathbf{t}(s) = \mathbf{u}(s) \times \mathbf{T}(s),$ (the *tangent normal*)
The triple `{{math|'''T''', '''t''', '''u'''}}`{=mediawiki} defines a positively oriented orthonormal basis attached to each point of the curve: a natural moving frame along the embedded curve.
### Geodesic curvature, normal curvature, and relative torsion {#geodesic_curvature_normal_curvature_and_relative_torsion}
Note that a Darboux frame for a curve does not yield a natural moving frame on the surface, since it still depends on an initial choice of tangent vector. To obtain a moving frame on the surface, we first compare the Darboux frame of γ with its Frenet--Serret frame. Let
- $\mathbf{T}(s) = \gamma'(s),$ (the *unit tangent*, as above)
- $\mathbf{N}(s) = \frac{\mathbf{T}'(s)}{\|\mathbf{T}'(s)\|},$ (the *Frenet normal vector*)
- $\mathbf{B}(s) = \mathbf{T}(s)\times\mathbf{N}(s),$ (the *Frenet binormal vector*).
Since the tangent vectors are the same in both cases, there is a unique angle α such that a rotation in the plane of **N** and **B** produces the pair **t** and **u**:
$$\begin{bmatrix}
\mathbf{T}\\
\mathbf{t}\\
\mathbf{u}
\end{bmatrix}
=
\begin{bmatrix}
1&0&0\\
0&\cos\alpha&\sin\alpha\\
0&-\sin\alpha&\cos\alpha
\end{bmatrix}
\begin{bmatrix}
\mathbf{T}\\
\mathbf{N}\\
\mathbf{B}
\end{bmatrix}.$$
Taking a differential, and applying the Frenet–Serret formulas yields
$$\begin{align}
\mathrm{d}\begin{bmatrix}
\mathbf{T}\\
\mathbf{t}\\
\mathbf{u}
\end{bmatrix}
&=
\begin{bmatrix}
0&\kappa\cos\alpha\, \mathrm{d}s&-\kappa\sin\alpha\, \mathrm{d}s\\
-\kappa\cos\alpha\, \mathrm{d}s&0&\tau \, \mathrm{d}s + \mathrm{d}\alpha\\
\kappa\sin\alpha\, \mathrm{d}s&-\tau \, \mathrm{d}s - \mathrm{d}\alpha&0
\end{bmatrix}
\begin{bmatrix}
\mathbf{T}\\
\mathbf{t}\\
\mathbf{u}
\end{bmatrix} \\
&=
\begin{bmatrix}
0&\kappa_g \, \mathrm{d}s&\kappa_n \, \mathrm{d}s\\
-\kappa_g \, \mathrm{d}s&0&\tau_r \, \mathrm{d}s\\
-\kappa_n \, \mathrm{d}s&-\tau_r \, \mathrm{d}s&0
\end{bmatrix}
\begin{bmatrix}
\mathbf{T}\\
\mathbf{t}\\
\mathbf{u}
\end{bmatrix}
\end{align}$$
where:
- κ~*g*~ is the **geodesic curvature** of the curve,
- κ~*n*~ is the **normal curvature** of the curve, and
- τ~*r*~ is the **relative torsion** (also called **geodesic torsion**) of the curve.`{{anchor|Relative torsion|Geodesic torsion}}`{=mediawiki}

# Darboux frame
## Darboux frame on a surface {#darboux_frame_on_a_surface}
This section specializes the case of the Darboux frame on a curve to the case when the curve is a principal curve of the surface (a *line of curvature*). In that case, since the principal curves are canonically associated to a surface at all non-umbilic points, the Darboux frame is a canonical moving frame.
### The trihedron {#the_trihedron}
The introduction of the trihedron (or *trièdre*), an invention of Darboux, allows for a conceptual simplification of the problem of moving frames on curves and surfaces by treating the coordinates of the point on the curve and the frame vectors in a uniform manner. A **trihedron** consists of a point **P** in Euclidean space, and three orthonormal vectors **e**~1~, **e**~2~, and **e**~3~ based at the point **P**. A **moving trihedron** is a trihedron whose components depend on one or more parameters. For example, a trihedron moves along a curve if the point **P** depends on a single parameter *s*, and **P**(*s*) traces out the curve. Similarly, if **P**(*s*,*t*) depends on a pair of parameters, then this traces out a surface.
A trihedron is said to be **adapted to a surface** if **P** always lies on the surface and **e**~3~ is the oriented unit normal to the surface at **P**. In the case of the Darboux frame along an embedded curve, the quadruple
: (**P**(*s*) = γ(*s*), **e**~1~(*s*) = **T**(*s*), **e**~2~(*s*) = **t**(*s*), **e**~3~(*s*) = **u**(*s*))
defines a tetrahedron adapted to the surface into which the curve is embedded.
In terms of this trihedron, the structural equations read
$$\mathrm{d}\begin{bmatrix}
\mathbf{P}\\
\mathbf{T}\\
\mathbf{t}\\
\mathbf{u}
\end{bmatrix}
=
\begin{bmatrix}
0&\mathrm{d}s&0&0\\
0&0&\kappa_g \, \mathrm{d}s&\kappa_n \, \mathrm{d}s\\
0&-\kappa_g \, \mathrm{d}s&0&\tau_r \, \mathrm{d}s\\
0&-\kappa_n \, \mathrm{d}s&-\tau_r \, \mathrm{d}s&0
\end{bmatrix}
\begin{bmatrix}
\mathbf{P}\\
\mathbf{T}\\
\mathbf{t}\\
\mathbf{u}
\end{bmatrix}.$$
### Change of frame {#change_of_frame}
Suppose that any other adapted trihedron
: (**P**, **e**~1~, **e**~2~, **e**~3~)
is given for the embedded curve. Since, by definition, **P** remains the same point on the curve as for the Darboux trihedron, and **e**~3~ = **u** is the unit normal, this new trihedron is related to the Darboux trihedron by a rotation of the form
$$\begin{bmatrix}
\mathbf{P}\\
\mathbf{e}_1\\
\mathbf{e}_2\\
\mathbf{e}_3
\end{bmatrix}
=
\begin{bmatrix}
1&0&0&0\\
0&\cos\theta&\sin\theta&0\\
0&-\sin\theta&\cos\theta&0\\
0&0&0&1
\end{bmatrix}
\begin{bmatrix}
\mathbf{P}\\
\mathbf{T}\\
\mathbf{t}\\
\mathbf{u}
\end{bmatrix}$$
where θ = θ(*s*) is a function of *s*. Taking a differential and applying the Darboux equation yields
$$\begin{align}
\mathrm{d}\mathbf{P} & = \mathbf{T} \mathrm{d}s = \omega^1\mathbf{e}_1+\omega^2\mathbf{e}_2\\
\mathrm{d}\mathbf{e}_i & = \sum_j \omega^j_i\mathbf{e}_j
\end{align}$$
where the (ω^i^,ω~i~^j^) are functions of *s*, satisfying
$$\begin{align}
\omega^1 & = \cos\theta \, \mathrm{d}s,\quad \omega^2 = -\sin\theta \, \mathrm{d}s\\
\omega_i^j & = -\omega_j^i\\
\omega_1^2 & = \kappa_g \, \mathrm{d}s + \mathrm{d}\theta\\
\omega_1^3 & = (\kappa_n\cos\theta + \tau_r\sin\theta) \, \mathrm{d}s\\
\omega_2^3 & = -(\kappa_n\sin\theta + \tau_r\cos\theta) \, \mathrm{d}s
\end{align}$$
### Structure equations {#structure_equations}
The Poincaré lemma, applied to each double differential dd**P**, dd**e**~*i*~, yields the following Cartan structure equations. From dd**P** = 0,
$$\begin{align}
\mathrm{d}\omega^1 & =\omega^2\wedge\omega_2^1\\
\mathrm{d}\omega^2 & =\omega^1\wedge\omega_1^2\\
0 & =\omega^1\wedge\omega_1^3+\omega^2\wedge\omega_2^3
\end{align}$$
From dd**e**~i~ = 0,
$$\begin{align}
\mathrm{d}\omega_1^2 & =\omega_1^3\wedge\omega_3^2\\
\mathrm{d}\omega_1^3 & =\omega_1^2\wedge\omega_2^3\\
\mathrm{d}\omega_2^3 & =\omega_2^1\wedge\omega_1^3
\end{align}$$ The latter are the Gauss–Codazzi equations for the surface, expressed in the language of differential forms.
### Principal curves {#principal_curves}
Consider the second fundamental form of *S*. This is the symmetric 2-form on *S* given by
$$\mathrm{I\!I} = -\mathrm{d}\mathbf{N}\cdot \mathrm{d}\mathbf{P} = \omega_1^3\odot\omega^1 + \omega_2^3\odot\omega^2
=\begin{pmatrix}\omega^1 & \omega^2\end{pmatrix}
\begin{pmatrix}
ii_{11}&ii_{12}\\
ii_{21}&ii_{22}
\end{pmatrix}
\begin{pmatrix}\omega^1\\\omega^2\end{pmatrix}.$$ By the spectral theorem, there is some choice of frame (**e**~i~) in which (*ii*~ij~) is a diagonal matrix. The eigenvalues are the principal curvatures of the surface. A diagonalizing frame **a**~1~, **a**~2~, **a**~3~ consists of the normal vector **a**~3~, and two principal directions **a**~1~ and **a**~2~. This is called a Darboux frame on the surface. The frame is canonically defined (by an ordering on the eigenvalues, for instance) away from the umbilics of the surface.

# Darboux frame
## Moving frames {#moving_frames}
The Darboux frame is an example of a natural moving frame defined on a surface. With slight modifications, the notion of a moving frame can be generalized to a hypersurface in an *n*-dimensional Euclidean space, or indeed any embedded submanifold. This generalization is among the many contributions of Élie Cartan to the method of moving frames.
### Frames on Euclidean space {#frames_on_euclidean_space}
A (Euclidean) **frame** on the Euclidean space **E**^*n*^ is a higher-dimensional analog of the trihedron. It is defined to be an (*n* + 1)-tuple of vectors drawn from **E**^*n*^, (*v*; *f*~1~, \..., *f*~*n*~), where:
- *v* is a choice of origin of **E**^*n*^, and
- (*f*~1~, \..., *f*~*n*~) is an orthonormal basis of the vector space based at *v*.
Let *F*(*n*) be the ensemble of all Euclidean frames. The Euclidean group acts on *F*(*n*) as follows. Let φ ∈ Euc(*n*) be an element of the Euclidean group decomposing as
$$\phi(x) = Ax + x_0$$ where *A* is an orthogonal transformation and *x*~0~ is a translation. Then, on a frame,
$$\phi(v;f_1,\dots,f_n) := (\phi(v);Af_1, \dots, Af_n).$$ Geometrically, the affine group moves the origin in the usual way, and it acts via a rotation on the orthogonal basis vectors since these are \"attached\" to the particular choice of origin. This is an effective and transitive group action, so *F*(*n*) is a principal homogeneous space of Euc(*n*).
### Structure equations {#structure_equations_1}
Define the following system of functions *F*(*n*) → **E**^*n*^:
$$\begin{align}
P(v; f_1,\dots, f_n) & = v\\
e_i(v; f_1,\dots, f_n) & = f_i, \qquad i=1,2,\dots,n.
\end{align}$$
The projection operator *P* is of special significance. The inverse image of a point *P*^−1^(*v*) consists of all orthonormal bases with basepoint at *v*. In particular, *P* : *F*(*n*) → **E**^*n*^ presents *F*(*n*) as a principal bundle whose structure group is the orthogonal group O(*n*). (In fact this principal bundle is just the tautological bundle of the homogeneous space *F*(*n*) → *F*(*n*)/O(*n*) = **E**^*n*^.)
The exterior derivative of *P* (regarded as a vector-valued differential form) decomposes uniquely as
$$\mathrm{d}P = \sum_i \omega^ie_i,\,$$
for some system of scalar valued one-forms ω^i^. Similarly, there is an *n* × *n* matrix of one-forms (ω~i~^j^) such that
$$\mathrm{d}e_i = \sum_j \omega_i^je_j.$$
Since the *e*~i~ are orthonormal under the inner product of Euclidean space, the matrix of 1-forms ω~i~^j^ is skew-symmetric. In particular it is determined uniquely by its upper-triangular part (ω~*j*~^*i*^ \| *i* \< *j*). The system of *n*(*n* + 1)/2 one-forms (ω^i^, ω~*j*~^*i*^ (*i*\<*j*)) gives an absolute parallelism of *F*(*n*), since the coordinate differentials can each be expressed in terms of them. Under the action of the Euclidean group, these forms transform as follows. Let φ be the Euclidean transformation consisting of a translation *v*^i^ and rotation matrix (*A*~*j*~^*i*^). Then the following are readily checked by the invariance of the exterior derivative under pullback:
$$\phi^*(\omega^i) = (A^{-1})_j^i\omega^j$$
$$\phi^*(\omega_j^i) = (A^{-1})_p^i\, \omega_q^p\, A_j^q.$$
Furthermore, by the Poincaré lemma, one has the following **structure equations**
$$\mathrm{d}\omega^i = -\omega_j^i\wedge\omega^j$$
$$\mathrm{d}\omega_j^i = -\omega^i_k\wedge\omega^k_j.$$

### Adapted frames and the Gauss--Codazzi equations {#adapted_frames_and_the_gausscodazzi_equations}
Let φ : *M* → **E**^*n*^ be an embedding of a *p*-dimensional smooth manifold into a Euclidean space. The space of **adapted frames** on *M*, denoted here by *F*~φ~(*M*) is the collection of tuples (*x*; *f*~1~,\...,*f*~n~) where *x* ∈ *M*, and the *f*~i~ form an orthonormal basis of **E**^*n*^ such that *f*~1~,\...,*f*~*p*~ are tangent to φ(*M*) at φ(*x*).
Several examples of adapted frames have already been considered. The first vector **T** of the Frenet--Serret frame (**T**, **N**, **B**) is tangent to a curve, and all three vectors are mutually orthonormal. Similarly, the Darboux frame on a surface is an orthonormal frame whose first two vectors are tangent to the surface. Adapted frames are useful because the invariant forms (ω^i^,ω~j~^i^) pullback along φ, and the structural equations are preserved under this pullback. Consequently, the resulting system of forms yields structural information about how *M* is situated inside Euclidean space. In the case of the Frenet--Serret frame, the structural equations are precisely the Frenet--Serret formulas, and these serve to classify curves completely up to Euclidean motions. The general case is analogous: the structural equations for an adapted system of frames classifies arbitrary embedded submanifolds up to a Euclidean motion.
In detail, the projection π : *F*(*M*) → *M* given by π(*x*; *f*~i~) = *x* gives *F*(*M*) the structure of a principal bundle on *M* (the structure group for the bundle is O(*p*) × O(*n* − *p*).) This principal bundle embeds into the bundle of Euclidean frames *F*(*n*) by φ(*v*;*f*~*i*~) := (φ(*v*);*f*~*i*~) ∈ *F*(*n*). Hence it is possible to define the pullbacks of the invariant forms from *F*(*n*):
$$\theta^i = \phi^*\omega^i,\quad \theta_j^i=\phi^*\omega_j^i.$$ Since the exterior derivative is equivariant under pullbacks, the following structural equations hold
$$\mathrm{d}\theta^i=-\theta_j^i\wedge\theta^j,\quad \mathrm{d}\theta_j^i = -\theta_k^i\wedge\theta_j^k.$$
Furthermore, because some of the frame vectors *f*~1~\...*f*~p~ are tangent to *M* while the others are normal, the structure equations naturally split into their tangential and normal contributions. Let the lowercase Latin indices *a*,*b*,*c* range from 1 to *p* (i.e., the tangential indices) and the Greek indices μ, γ range from *p*+1 to *n* (i.e., the normal indices). The first observation is that
$$\theta^\mu = 0,\quad \mu=p+1,\dots,n$$
since these forms generate the submanifold φ(*M*) (in the sense of the Frobenius integration theorem.)
The first set of structural equations now becomes
$$\left.\begin{array}{l}
\mathrm{d}\theta^a = -\sum_{b=1}^p\theta_b^a\wedge\theta^b\\
\\
0=\mathrm{d}\theta^\mu = -\sum_{b=1}^p \theta_b^\mu\wedge\theta^b
\end{array}\right\}\,\,\, (1)$$
Of these, the latter implies by Cartan\'s lemma that
$$\theta_b^\mu = s^\mu_{ab}\theta^a$$
where *s*^μ^~ab~ is *symmetric* on *a* and *b* (the second fundamental forms of φ(*M*)). Hence, equations (1) are the **Gauss formulas** (see Gauss–Codazzi equations). In particular, θ~*b*~^*a*^ is the connection form for the Levi-Civita connection on *M*.
The second structural equations also split into the following
$$\left.\begin{array}{l}
\mathrm{d}\theta_b^a + \sum_{c=1}^p\theta_c^a\wedge\theta_b^c = \Omega_b^a = -\sum_{\mu=p+1}^n\theta_\mu^a\wedge\theta^\mu_b\\
\\
\mathrm{d}\theta_b^\gamma = -\sum_{c=1}^p\theta_c^\gamma\wedge\theta_b^c-\sum_{\mu=p+1}^n\theta_\mu^\gamma\wedge\theta_b^\mu\\
\\
\mathrm{d}\theta_\mu^\gamma = -\sum_{c=1}^p\theta_c^\gamma\wedge\theta_\mu^c-\sum_{\delta=p+1}^n\theta_\delta^\gamma\wedge\theta_\mu^\delta
\end{array}\right\}\,\,\, (2)$$
The first equation is the **Gauss equation** which expresses the curvature form Ω of *M* in terms of the second fundamental form. The second is the **Codazzi--Mainardi equation** which expresses the covariant derivatives of the second fundamental form in terms of the normal connection. The third is the **Ricci equation**

# Wayde Skipper
**Wayde Skipper** (born 1 March 1983) is an Australian rules footballer who has played for the Hawthorn Football Club and the Western Bulldogs . Standing at 193 cm, Skipper won the 2003 best first year player for his original club the Western Bulldogs.
Skipper was drafted to the Western Bulldogs through the 2000 AFL Draft as a 5th round selection, number 70 overall. Not noted for kicking goals, Skipper kicked 5 goals in Round 17 of 2005 against Geelong at the Telstra Dome, with his first being a contender for Goal of the Year, with a left foot banana from the boundary line. The Dogs won the game.
In 2007, Skipper took a big pack mark in the goalsquare against St Kilda in Round 18. The goal he kicked put the Dogs in front with a minute remaining. The Saints however, after a 75m pass from Jason Gram from defence to Nick Riewoldt 50 metres out on the boundary line, kicked a point through Riewoldt on the siren to level the scores for the 4th draw of the season.
Skipper played one game in 2008 and did not play an AFL game in 2009.
At the end of the 2009 season, Skipper was delisted from the Western Bulldogs, and picked up by Hawthorn with selection 13 in the Rookie Draft on 15 December 2009.
On the eve of the 2010 season, with the Hawks\' ruck stocks thin, Skipper suffered another setback with a hamstring injury keeping him out of the team. He made his debut for the Hawks in round eight against Richmond.
Skipper played his fiftieth game against Adelaide in Launceston.
He was delisted by Hawthorn on 19 October 2010. Hawthorn felt that new recruit David Hale and the raw talent of Brent Renouf, would make Skipper surplus to requirements for the 2011 season.
Skipper moved over to the Port Melbourne in the VFL. He was part of their premiership team in 2011.
In the 2014 and 2015 seasons, Skipper played for Hoppers Crossing in the Western Region Football League. He was the Barry Priest Medal winner for best-and-fairest in the division 1 competition in 2015.
In the 2018 season, Skipper played for Point Cook in the Western Region Football League, Skipper played a crucial role in Point Cook's inaugural senior Premiership in the Division 2 competition. He also claimed his first selection in the WRFL Division 2 team of the year.

# Anthony Deydier
**Anthony Deydier**, was a French priest, missionary and teacher.
## Biography
### Early years in America {#early_years_in_america}
Deydier was born in France on April 30, 1788. He left his native country on June 10, 1810, on the same boat as Simon Bruté, accompanying Benedict Flaget. After his ordination to the diaconate he refused ordination to the priesthood and he taught for four years at Mount St. Mary\'s in Emmitsburg, Maryland, (which was where Father Bruté spent most of his early years in America), eventually ending up in Albany New York as a private tutor. According to one source, he had received minor orders in France and when he arrived in the United States, he taught music in New York City. Apparently his association with Brute at Mount St. Mary\'s is what led him eventually to his priestly ordination. Bruté reportedly asked him to come to Indiana. That call obviously struck a chord in Deydier because it was in the missions that he spent the remainder of his life. Bishop Bruté ordained him on March 25, 1837, in the Cathedral of Saint Francis Xavier in Vincennes, Indiana.
### Missionary work in Indiana {#missionary_work_in_indiana}
After his ordination as a priest he was sent to Evansville, Indiana. He apparently did not find many Catholics. The day after his arrival, on May 4, 1837, he celebrated Mass in a tavern, at the corner of First and Locust. He then returned to Vincennes, but was then sent back to Evansville in November 1838, after conducting a collection tour in September of that year. From then on he is reported to have remained in Evansville. However, it was reported in *Historical Records and Studies* that in 1842, while on a similar mission trip, Deydier was appointed temporary administrator of the new French Parish in New York City, St. Vincent DePaul. Much of his time was taken up ministering to the workers on the Wabash and Erie Canal. Deydier\'s life in Evansville was not one of leisure. Saint Theodora Guerin, foundress of the Sisters of Providence, St. Mary of the Woods wrote in her journal \"So extreme was his poverty and so complete his destitution, that I shall run the risk of being accused of exaggeration in describing it.\" He founded the parish of the Assumption in Evansville, Vanderburgh County, Indiana. In the \"History of Vanderburgh County\" it was written:
> It was a noticeable feature of the Catholic priesthood in the pioneer days that wherever they found a community, no matter how small or how widely scattered, wherein they could establish a mission, there the cross was erected and the protecting care of the church spread over the inhabitants. No hardship was accounted too severe and no sacrifice too great to stand in the way of the propagation of a religion which they believed to declare the voice and will of God. The first information of any Catholics residing in the vicinity of Evansville, was communicated in the fall of 1836, to the Right Rev. Gabriel Brute, first bishop of Vincennes, by Rev. Father Buteux, and the companions of his journey, who lodged on their arrival here, at the Mansion House, then kept by Francis Linck, a citizen well remembered to this day and esteemed by all the older inhabitants of the city. Mr. Linck, born in 1774, was a native of Stockheim, in Wurtemburg, and in 1836 was the only Catholic in Evansville, except perhaps the late John Walsh. In March, 1837, Very Rev. Father De la Hielandiere, vicar-general of the Rev. Bishop, accompanied by Rev. Father Shawe, visited Evansville with a view of establishing a mission, and on the 3rd day of May, following, Rev. Father **Anthony Deydier** was dispatched to take charge of the mission. Father Deydier was born in France, April 30, 1788, and was ordained a priest at the cathedral of Vincennes, March 25, 1837. Very few knew that he had reached the full strength of his manhood when he took upon himself holy orders, and was placed in charge of the mission in this city. While here he lived a blameless and well spent life, unobtrusive in his deportment, but with a kind word for all. After almost a year\'s residence at the house of Mr. Linck, in January, 1838, he built a lodge room, 10x15 feet size, at the corner of Fifth and Chestnut streets. Here he made his abode, using his little room as a dwelling and for chapel purposes for about three years. For Sabbath day services larger rooms at the homes of Catholics were occasionally used. He labored heroically among his people, did much missionary work in the country adjacent to Evansville, and in 1838 made a successful trip to the east to raise funds for the erection of a church building. The history of Catholicism in Evansville since that time is the history of a wonderful growth. The worthy priest who stood by the church in its infancy, lived to see it become rich and powerful with a numerous priesthood within the territory where he once labored alone - lived to see a sturdy oak grown from the acorn planted by his hands. When old age and increasing infirmities had impaired his usefulness, he retired from the active ministry and, returning to Vincennes, passed the evening of his life in comparative rest, greatly beloved by all who knew him. His death occurred February 11, 1864.
Deydier remained until 1859, when he retired to the \"Highlands\" at Vincennes.
He died on February 11, 1864, and was buried in the orphanage cemetery, which is now part of the St. Vincent de Paul Parish. In 2016, the parish was merged into St. Francis Xavier Parish

# Mount Chapman
**Mount Chapman** is a mountain in the Great Smoky Mountains, located in the Southeastern United States. It has an elevation of 6,427 feet (1,956 m) above sea level. While the mountain is located deep within the Smokies, the Appalachian Trail crosses its eastern slope, coming to within 200 ft of the summit. Mount Chapman is among the 10 highest mountains in the Appalachian range, if subpeaks are not included.
Mount Chapman is situated along the Tennessee-North Carolina border, with Sevier County to the north and Swain County to the south. Like its neighbor Mount Guyot, Chapman is a double peak, with the southern peak being the true summit. A 1500 ft gap divides Chapman from Dashoga Ridge (i.e., Mount Hardison and Marks Knob), just two miles (3 km) to the east. Its western slope, known as Chapman Lead, is more gradual, descending roughly 4000 ft over 5 mi to its base along the headwaters of the Little Pigeon River. Chapman Lead parallels Guyot Spur to the north, with Buck Fork between the two ridges. The summit is coated in a dense stand of Southern Appalachian spruce-fir forest.
The remoteness of Mount Chapman has left it largely untouched by human history. The mountain is named after Colonel David C. Chapman, a Knoxville business leader who led efforts to establish a national park in the Smokies. As head of the Tennessee Great Smoky Mountains Park Commission from 1927 to 1937, Chapman raised funds and negotiated hundreds of land purchases that helped make the park possible. Arnold Guyot crossed Mount Chapman in the late 1850s, measuring the mountain\'s summit at 6,447 feet (Guyot called it \"Mount Alexander\" after a Princeton colleague). The leg of the Appalachian Trail crossing Chapman\'s eastern slope was constructed in 1935.
Mount Chapman is approximately 11 mi from the nearest parking lot at the Cosby Campground and 14.5 mi from Newfound Gap. From the Cosby Campground (specifically behind Campsite B51), the Snake Den Ridge Trail winds for 5.3 mi to its junction with the Appalachian Trail at Inadu Knob. Chapman\'s main peak is approximately 5.2 mi to the south of Inadu Knob, with the trail first crossing the slopes of Old Black, Mount Guyot, and Tricorner Knob. A short bushwhack is required to reach the summit. The Tricorner Knob Shelter is approximately 1.5 mi to the northeast of Mount Chapman

# Artaria
**Artaria & Co.** (`{{IPA|it|artaˈriːa}}`{=mediawiki}) was one of the most important music publishing firms of the late 18th and 19th century. Founded in the 18th century in Vienna, the company is associated with many leading names of the classical era.
## History
Artaria & Co. was founded as a publishing house for art and maps by Carlo Artaria (1747--1808) in 1770 in Vienna, then the capital of the Habsburg monarchy. The company expanded its business to include music in 1778. Its most important early collaboration was with the Austrian composer Joseph Haydn, who published more than 300 works through Artaria, including many of the composer\'s string quartets (such as the Opus 33), which were a popular seller. The value of Haydn\'s works helped push Artaria to the top of the music publishing world in the late 18th century.
This important relationship helped Artaria secure the rights to the works of other important classical composers such as Luigi Boccherini and, most notably, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
During his lifetime, Artaria was Mozart\'s principal publisher, although after his death this passed to the German house of Breitkopf & Härtel. Starting in 1793, Artaria published several early works of Ludwig van Beethoven, until a bitter dispute over the publishing rights of Beethoven\'s String Quintet Op. 29 which culminated in a court case from 1803 until 1805. Yet, Artaria also published Beethoven\'s *Hammerklavier Sonata* in 1819 and Carlo\'s nephew Matthias (1793--1835) published the composer\'s *Große Fuge* in 1827.
The dispute with Beethoven highlights the role the company played in helping determine early copyright laws. Voluminous correspondence is extant between Artaria and its clients regarding ownership and royalty of editions as well as piracy concerns.
Artaria continued to be a leading publisher through the 19th century, until it finally ceased its music publication business in the twentieth century. Its cartographic publishing was acquired by `{{Interlanguage link multi|Freytag & Berndt|de}}`{=mediawiki} in 1920 and the Artaria publishing house was dissolved in 1932. The art dealership closed in 2012.
