# Mark Guidry
**Mark Guidry** (born August 6, 1959, in Lafayette, Louisiana) is a former American jockey. He ranks 22nd among jockeys in career wins with 5,222 wins as of March 7, 2014, the date of his last ride. He subsequently announced his retirement from riding to become a jockey\'s agent. This was Guidry\'s second retirement. He initially retired in 2007 and did not ride again for 4 more years.
## Career
He began his riding career in Thoroughbred horse racing in his native Louisiana in 1974 at the age of 15 where he remained until 1986 when he went to race in Illinois. He earned the moniker \"King of Chicago\" in the 1990s, by leading jockeys in wins at Hawthorne Race Course seven times, Sportsman\'s Park nine times, two times at Arlington Park. He also captured the 2005 riding title at Churchill Downs. Guidry earned his 5,000th career win at Churchill Downs on May 4, 2007, before retiring for the first time later that year.
One of his first stakes wins as a jockey was at the age of 15 in 1974 in the Old Hickory Stakes at Fairgrounds Race Course on board Honey Mark for trainer Larry Robideaux. He won the 1978 Delta Downs riding title.
At the spring Sportsman\'s Park meet of 1992, Guidry had three separate six-win days.
On April 25, 1992, he equaled a record by winning four stakes on a single card as part of a six win day on a card at Sportsman\'s Park, including the National Jockey Club Handicap on Stalwars and three other stakes wins --- on Cu\'s Gig, Take that Step and Zend to Aiken. His four stakes wins that day tied a record held by Jerry Bailey, Randy Romero and Pat Valenzuela for most stakes wins by a jockey on a single card.
On March 20, 1992, he won six races on a card at Sportsman\'s Park, all at odds of 5-1 or more. On April 5, 1992, he had six come from behind wins.
In 1994, he set a new single season riding record at Hawthorne with 117 victories at the fall meet. He broke that record in 1995 with 137 wins. In 1997, Hawthorne Race Course voted him into their Racing Hall of Fame.
In 2001, he rode Todd Pletcher\'s Balto Star to victories in the Arkansas Derby and Lane\'s End Stakes. In 2002, he set a course record at Churchill Downs on board Island Echo winning a five-furlong turf allowance sprint in 55.91 seconds for trainer Bill Mott.
In 2003, he won the Holy Bull Stakes at 27--1 on board Offlee Wild at Gulfstream Park.
In 2005, he won the Santa Anita Derby on Buzzards Bay and rode him to a fifth-place finish in the Kentucky Derby. In the 2005 Breeders\' Cup Classic, he guided 14-1 shot Perfect Drift to a closing third-place finish.
In 2006, he rode Lemons Forever, a 47-1 shot, to a come from behind victory in the 132nd Kentucky Oaks. She was the longest shot to ever win the storied race for three-year-old fillies. That same year, he was voted the esteemed George Woolf Memorial Jockey Award by his peers in part for his assistance to the victims of Hurricane Katrina.
In 2006, he won the Swale Stakes on Sharp Humor, and ran second with him by a half length in the Florida Derby to Barbaro. Guidry and Sharp Humor nearly held off the eventual Kentucky Derby winner in a thrilling stretch duel.
In the 2007 Kentucky Derby, Guidry rode 50-1 longshot Imawildandcrazyguy to a fourth-place finish.
He retired on November 10, 2007, having won 5,043 races during his riding career.
After retiring, he spent more than two years as a trainer.
After four years way from riding, he returned to the saddle in the summer of 2011, beginning his comeback at Ellis Park, before moving on to Keeneland, Churchill Downs and the Tampa Bay Downs winter meet. He picked up his riding in the spring of 2012 full-time at the Louisiana Downs spring/summer meet, where he commanded a 24 percent winning rate. His mounts were in the money more than 50 percent of the time in 2012.
On July 6, 2013, he had five winners and three seconds, including three stakes wins on Louisiana Legends stakes day at Evangeline Downs. Mark Guidry resides in New Orleans, Louisiana, with his wife Tina, and children Marcus, Mecus and Fallon

# Michael Wolf (photographer)
**Michael Wolf** (30 July 1954 -- 24 April 2019) was a German born artist and photographer who captured daily life in big cities. His work takes place primarily in Hong Kong and Paris and focuses on architectural patterns and structures, as well as the documentation of human life and interaction in the city. Wolf has published multiple photo books, has had his work exhibited widely around the world, has permanent collections across Germany and the United States, and has won three World Press Photo Awards from 2005 to 2011.
## Early life {#early_life}
Wolf was born in 1954 in Munich, Germany, and was raised in the United States, Europe, and Canada. He grew up in a family of artists; his father was a calligraphist and his mother worked with pottery and paint. He attended the North Toronto Collegiate Institute and the University of California, Berkeley. In 1976, he obtained a degree in visual communication at the University of Essen, Germany, where he studied with Otto Steinert.
## Professional career {#professional_career}
Wolf began his career in 1994 as a photojournalist, spending eight years working in Hong Kong for the German magazine *Stern*. As the magazine industry began to decline over the coming years, his photojournalism assignments became more dense, and he is quoted as saying that they were \"stupid and boring.\" This led his career in a new direction as he strayed from photojournalism and instead began a career in fine-art photography in 2003, which is the work he is most credited for today.
## Notable works {#notable_works}
### *Bastard Chairs* / *Sitting in China* {#bastard_chairs_sitting_in_china}
Wolf began non-editorial photography with a series entitled *Bastard Chairs*, small chairs that Chinese people would repair repeatedly using whatever materials were available. Wolf reports that the police detained him twice during the photographing of the series for \"doing something which was harmful to the Chinese state.\" Photographs from the series were published in a 2002 book entitled *Sitting in China*. Although Wolf called the bastard chairs a \"great symbol of the Chinese people\'s thriftiness and resourcefulness,\" and the book received positive reviews in the West, some Chinese people felt that the photographs made China appear \"backward.\"
### *The Real Toy Story* {#the_real_toy_story}
In follow-up to the *China: Factory of the World* series, Wolf created an installation entitled *The Real Toy Story*. It consisted of 20,000 toys made in China and purchased in California attached with magnets to the walls of the gallery, along with photographs of workers making the toys.
### *Architecture of Density* {#architecture_of_density}
In this series, Wolf photographed Hong Kong\'s tall buildings in a way that depicted them as \"abstractions, never-ending repetitions of architectural patterns.\" The photographs excluded the sky and the ground, thereby emphasizing the vertical lines of the buildings. The images have been compared with those of Andreas Gursky and Candida Höfer. Tugo Cheng, an architect and fine artist from Hong Kong, described these images saying \"He took a building that is very three-dimensional and compressed it into a surface in a way that would make one feel breathless and lost in scale.\"
The first book containing images from the series, *Hong Kong: Front Door/ Back Door*, was published in 2005. One review noted the book\'s \"representation of an overpopulated city emptied of its human presence\" and praised \"the visual intelligence of Wolf\'s photographs.\" The *Outside* volume of Wolf\'s two-volume 2009 book *Hong Kong Inside Outside* contained a more extensive selection of photographs from this series.
### *100x100*
In 2006, Wolf took photographs of residents in their rooms in a building in Hong Kong\'s oldest public housing complex, the Shek Kip Mei Estate, which was going to be demolished. He used a wide-angle lens to show as much of the interiors of the rooms as possible. Each room was approximately 100 sqft in size, and he displayed photographs of 100 rooms, leading to the name \"100x100.\" In an interview, Wolf likened the series to a scientific project, \"an investigation into the use of limited space.\" The *Inside* volume of Wolf\'s two-volume book *Hong Kong Inside Outside* of 2009 contained the complete photographs from this series.
### *Copy Art* / *Real Fake Art* {#copy_art_real_fake_art}
Between 2005 and 2007, Wolf photographed painters in Shenzhen, China, who reproduced famous works of art such as *Sunflowers* by Vincent van Gogh. Each portrait consisted of a \"copy artist\" along with an example of a copied work. The settings were described as \"dirty alleyways and street corners.\" One reviewer wrote that the pictures \"document intimate cultural and economic facets of globalization even as they record and complicate critical dilemmas about authenticity and the non-economic values of art.\" The series was collected in his book *Real Fake Art* published in 2011.
### *Transparent City* {#transparent_city}
A series shot in downtown Chicago beginning in 2006 that \"combine\[d\] impersonal cityscapes shot primarily at dusk or at night with details of the buildings' inhabitants\" became the basis for the 2008 book *Transparent City*. The photographs were taken from rooftops at dusk with a long lens. As in the *Architecture of Density* series, the exterior photographs excluded the horizon and the sky, leaving the windows of the buildings as the main subjects. In one interview, Wolf said that he came upon the idea of showing close-ups of people in the windows after he noticed a man giving him the finger in a photograph. In another interview, Wolf cited the artistic work of Edward Hopper as an inspiration for the series because of its voyeuristic nature and its inclusion of architectural details.
In an interview, Wolf said that shooting in Chicago convinced him to switch from film to digital. \"For most of my first major series *Architecture of Density,* I shot with a 4×5 film camera,\" he said. \"But when it came to shooting Chicago---which is a very windy city---the slightest gust of wind would vibrate the tripod, and I suspected many of my photographs would be ruined.\" Shooting digital allowed him to review the days\' images, and guaranteed the precision Wolf wanted. \"There's nothing accidental in my photos,\" he added in the same interview.
Articles about the book connected the photographs to the film *Rear Window* by Alfred Hitchcock. One reviewer described the book as \"frightening,\" causing a feeling of \"remoteness.\" The series was controversial because some people felt that the cropped and enlarged photographs of people in the buildings constituted an invasion of privacy.

## Notable works {#notable_works}
### *Tokyo Compression* {#tokyo_compression}
In the 2010 book *Tokyo Compression*, Wolf presented portraits of Japanese people inside crowded Tokyo subway trains who had been pressed against a window. The commuters\' expressions were characterized in one review as \"traumatised\" and \"woeful.\" Wolf stated that some people closed their eyes or hid their faces with their hands upon realizing that they were being photographed.
One reviewer concluded that Wolf\'s *Architecture of Density*, *Transparent City*, and *Tokyo Compression* series represented a progression from long shot to close-up. Wolf won a first prize in Daily Life in the 2009 World Press Photo competition for his *Tokyo Compression* work. Martin Parr selected the 2010 book as one of the 30 most influential photobooks published between 2001 and 2010.
*Tokyo Compression* was part of Metropolis, City Life in the Urban Age, the 2011 Noorderlicht Photofestival. One of Wolf\'s pictures was used for the poster, the cover of the catalogue and all media material of the exhibition.
### Series using Google Street View {#series_using_google_street_view}
In several series, such as *Paris Street View*, *Manhattan Street View*, and *A Series of Unfortunate Events*, Wolf took photographs of Google Street View scenes on his computer screen. Wolf compared his method of finding interesting scenes online to those of a street photographer walking around in a city. He has called his Street View series \"a statement about art.\"
The Street View photographs were characterized by pixelation and image noise which were compared with techniques used by Roy Lichtenstein and Andy Warhol in their art. The work led to discussion of how the automatically taken Google Street View images affected the \"decisive moment\" concept of Henri Cartier-Bresson; nevertheless, the photographs were said to contain \"some mystery\" in that they were \"hard to interpret.\" Some of Wolf\'s photographs resemble recognized classics of photography such as *Le baiser de l\'hôtel de ville* (*The Kiss*) by Robert Doisneau.
## Controversy
Wolf\'s work in some cases was subjected to criticism and controversy surrounding the methods in which he obtained his photographs. In his work *A Series of Unfortunate Events,* his use of Google Street View was criticized by other photojournalists after he won an honorable mention in the World Press Photo competition for this series. Critics claimed it was not real photojournalism because he himself was not out on the streets taking the photographs. Instead, he would sift through thousands of random imagery from Google Street View for photographs that matched his project. Wolf, however, viewed this method as an innovative and different way to acquire his media.
Again, in his work *Transparent City,* he photographed buildings in downtown Chicago at dusk so that the inside of the windows were visible and the building\'s inhabitants were shown. This work created a discussion about privacy concerns, as people were being photographed unknowingly from inside their homes, although it gave a unique look into urban living with an emphasis on loneliness.

# Reanap
**Reanap**, also **Reanapa** (cuneiform: `{{Script/Cuneiform|𒊑𒀀𒈾𒉺}}`{=mediawiki} *ri-a-na-pa*) was an ancient Egyptian commissioner, of the 1350--1335 BC Amarna letters, written from a 15--20 year time period. Of the 382 El-Amarna letters correspondence, Reanapa is referenced in three:
:\* EA 292--Titled: *Like a pot held in pledge,* see Adda-danu.
:\* EA 315--Titled: *\"Like a command of the Sun\"*
:\* EA 326--Titled: *\"A new commissioner\"*
## Two short letters {#two_short_letters}
The topic of two short letters, EA 315, and 326 is *Reanapa*, and no intrigues of other cities/city-states, or individuals, are involved. The prostration formula to the pharaoh, and subservience to the king\'s authority can be seen.
### EA 315, by Pu-Ba\'lu of Yursa {#ea_315_by_pu_balu_of_yursa}
Letter no. 2 of 3 by Pu-Ba\'lu:

# Love and Suicide (2005 film)
***Love and Suicide*** is a 2005 feature film romance by Luis Moro and Lisa France, starring Moro, Kamar de los Reyes and Daisy McCrackin. Moro wrote and filmed it over the course of 12 days in 2003, while attending the Havana International Film Festival for his previous film, *Anne B. Real*. This was the first film to be shot by an American in Cuba since 1959, when actor Errol Flynn made his last picture, *Cuban Rebel Girls*.
## Plot summary {#plot_summary}
Tomas (Kamar De Los Reyes) lives in a vicious circle of life and death. To bury his grief over a lost love, he enters a world between dreams and reality; the path between love and suicide. Alberto (Luis Moro) peacefully swims with life, knowing life will never outlast eternal time; dreams and reality are the same. Tomas find himself in a world of history preserved in the present, where time has stopped, and souls rise beyond material surfaces. This world exists in Cuba. Nina (Daisy McCrackin) a modern-day gypsy looking for her purpose in life, while Tomas keeps running from his. In a frantic moment, Tomas recalls the simplicity brought forth with Nina and the ultimate test of authenticity given by Alberto. In this moment, Tomas discovers the one thing between love and suicide.
## Behind the scenes {#behind_the_scenes}
*Love & Suicide* began as a screenplay that was inspired by Moro\'s desire to make a film in his native country of Cuba. The cast and crew paid their own way to Havana to shoot the film. Originally Moro and France\'s earlier film, *Anne B. Real*, was accepted into the Havana Film Festival. The intention was to shoot their film, while they were at the festival. Described by France as a "no budget" project, the film was shot by Lichtenstein, who carried a shoebox-sized DVX HD digital camera, two wireless microphones and flashlights with a small saucer reflector for lighting. The 40 hours of unedited scenes shot in the streets, parks, and buildings of Old Havana were produced after cast and crew kept their commitments to the daily events of the film festival

# The Resurrection of Jimber-Jaw
\"**The Resurrection of Jimber-Jaw**\" is a 1937 short story by American writer Edgar Rice Burroughs, about an unfrozen 50,000-year-old caveman.
The story was originally printed in *Argosy*, and later reprinted as one of three stories in the collection, *Tales of Three Planets* (Canaveral, 1964, 1974). The *Argosy*text, used for all versions published under this title, contained significant alterations by the magazine editor of Burroughs\' original text. Burroughs\' original version, \"Elmer\", was published in *Forgotten Tales of Love and Murder* (Guidry & Adkins, 2001).
## Plot summary {#plot_summary}
The story turns about an experimental aviator and a cryogenicist, who are flying over Siberia when forced to land, after an airplane mechanical failure. They survive the landing, and happen to find the body of a caveman, frozen into a newly uncovered glacier wall. Jokingly, the aviator suggests that the cryogenicist attempt to revive the man, which he proceeds to do, using transfusions and injections of drugs. The caveman proves to be intelligent, and immensely strong. His name is Kolani and he soon learns enough English to communicate. Returned to America, he is given the stage name of Jim Stone, after he proves to be a professional wrestling sensation, who throws all contenders over the ropes and into the crowd.
Stone/Kolani eventually falls in love with a popular movie actress, who as it happens is a look-alike for his intended mate of long ago. In negotiating the ways of the new society of the 20th century, however, Kolani gives the opinion that modern women now act in nearly all ways like men, and he does not approve of any of it. After finding the actress, whom he has been romancing, with another man, he deliberately refreezes himself in a meat locker, with a note that he is seeking his real mate, and not to thaw him out again

# Joseph Stevens Jones
**Joseph Stevens Jones** (September 28, 1809 -- December 29, 1877) was an American actor, playwright, theater manager, and surgeon. He wrote at least 150 plays that were mostly produced at theaters in Boston, Massachusetts.
## Early life and education {#early_life_and_education}
Jones was born in Boston, Massachusetts on September 28, 1809. He was the son of Mary Ann (née Stevens) and Abraham A. Jones, a sea captain who worked for the Russian American Company in Alaska. His father died in 1819 in Unalaska, leaving Jones and his four siblings to be raised by his mother in Boston.
He attended public elementary schools in Boston. He left school to work in a cordage store. Next, he worked in the counting room of a bank. When his boss at the bank learned of his interest in writing plays, he contacted a theater manager and helped Jones secure a job at the theater.
While working in theaters, he also attended medical school. In 1843 he graduated from Harvard Medical School.
## Career
### Theater
Jones debuted as an actor at the age of eighteen in the role of Crack a production of the comedy *The Turnpike Gate* in Providence Rhode Island. He was then engaged by the Tremont Theatre in Boston, performing in mostly dramas. One of his early big roles were as Lucullus in *Damon and Pythias*. However, he was better at comedy and soon was cast in roels in *Perfection*, *The Young Widow*, and *Lionel Lincoln*.*Lionel Lincoln.*
He was later hired as a comedic actor by the Warren Theatre and eventually became its stage manager. His first successful play was *The Liberty Tree or, Boston Boys in \'76* which was produced at the Warren Theatre in Boston in 1832. It celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of the end of the Revolutionary War. Jones played the Yankee character Bill Ball. Jones also worked for the National Theatre in Boston where he worked as a stage manager, financial advisor, and playwright.
In 1839, he leased the Tremont Theatre for four years for \$8,000 a year (\$`{{Inflation|index=US|value=8000|start_year=1839|fmt=c}}`{=mediawiki} in today\'s money). He opened the theater on September 2, 1839, with a production of The Poor Gentlemen. However, the 1839 to 1840 theater season was bad for theaters across the country, and the Tremont was not profitable. Jones ran the theater from 1840 to 1841 with stars Tyrone Power, Fanny Elssler, and Dan Power. However, he closed when the season ended for financial reasons. Except for rare performances in New York and Philadelphia, he retired from acting when he closed the Tremont; his last performance in Boston was as Mock Duke in *The Honeymoon* at the Tremont.
Jones was a prolific author, writing about 150 plays. His heyday as a playwright was between 1835 and 1875. He is mostly known for his historical dramas but also wrote comedies, farces, melodramas, and adaptations of novels. His best-known play is *Solon Shingle; or, The People\'s Lawyer,* the story of the trial of Charles Otis, a poor clerk framed by a coworker for stealing. The play was first produced at the National Theatre in Boston in 1839. The play\'s popularity rests on the character of Solon Shingle, played by John E. Owens. Owens was a great success in the role, making his final performance as Shingle in New York in 1884.
His *The Carpenter of Rouen; or, A Revenge for the Massacre of St. Bartholomew* was produced across the United States and in England. Other popular plays by Jones were *Moll Pitcher, Paul Revere and the Sons of Liberty, The Silver Spoon,* and *The Sons of the Cape.The Silver Spoon; or, Our Own Folks* was first produced at the Boston Museum on February 16, 1852. William Warren was noted for performing the role of Jefferson Scattering Batkins through 1883. Its popularity led to Jones becoming the unofficial dramatist of the Boston Museum. The play was revived at that theater through many seasons and reprinted in 1911.
He supported copyright protection and adequate compensation for authors. Jones points to the weakness of the copyright laws, that several of his plays have been performed throughout the States without remuneration to himself. He also notes that his plays were meant to be performed, not read.
He was a member of the Howard Athenaeum Stock Company for many years and was connected with the stage for 52 years.
### Medicine
After he tired of acting, Jones completed his medical studies at Harvard. After graduating from medical school, he practiced medicine in Boston\'s West End for 35 years. He was the city physician for several years during the administrations of Mayor Wightman and Mayor Lincoln. Jones also lectured on anatomy and physiology at the Tremont Temple. Jones was also a member of the Mechanic Light Infantry, and was connected for many years with the old First Regiment as a surgeon.
## Personal life {#personal_life}
Jones married Hannah Canterbury Dexter (1812--1870). They had four children, including Joseph S. Jones Jr., Alice L. Jones, Dr. William Jones, and Nathaniel Dexter Jones, an actor and theater manager. After her death, he married her sister, Louisa Goward Dexter (1814--1890). His home was on the corner of Bowdoin Street and Cambridge Street in Boston.
He was a Freemason and a member of the Odd Fellows, playing a large role in the construction of the Odd Fellows Building in Boston.
After being ill for a year, Jones died on December 29, 1877, from pneumonia at his residence in Boston, Massachusetts. His funeral service was held at Dr. Winkley\'s church on Bulfinch Street in Boston. His daughter and a son, Joseph, pre-deceased him in 1877.

# Sunny (1941 film)
***Sunny*** is a 1941 American musical film directed by Herbert Wilcox and starring Anna Neagle, Ray Bolger, John Carroll, Edward Everett Horton, Grace Hartman, Paul Hartman, Frieda Inescort, and Helen Westley. It was adapted by Sig Herzig from the Jerome Kern-Oscar Hammerstein II musical play *Sunny*. It is the second film version of the musical; the first was *Sunny*, made in 1930.
## Plot
During the Mardi Gras festivities, Larry Warren, a member of a wealthy New Orleans family, meets equestrian and dancer Sunny O'Sullivan. The queen of hearts, who is out and about with her entourage in the festive turmoil, commands both of them to hug and kiss. When Sunny disappears into the darkness of the night after this hug, Larry, lost in thought, enters a circus that is located at the place where he met Sunny, still in the spirit of the young woman who has bewitched him. At the circus he unexpectedly meets his sister Elizabeth, the family lawyer Henry Bates and Juliet Runnymeade, a circus debutante with whom a circus actor does all sorts of mischief. To his great surprise and delight, he also sees Sunny dancing on stage with a partner and cannot have a bouquet of flowers sent to her quickly enough. After the show he tries to get in touch with Sunny to meet her. However, due to a misunderstanding, things turn out differently and instead of Larry, Sunny is out with her old friend and stage partner Bunny Billings.
By chance, Sunny and Larry meet again in the restaurant where Sunny is with Bunny and another friend. Larry steers the young woman away from her friends, and together they go on a tour of the city. When the night ends, they are both hopelessly in love and Larry proposes to Sunny.
After Sunny has said goodbye to her friends at the circus, Larry wants to introduce her to his aunt Barbara, who has been criticized as very harshly, as well as the rest of his family at the ancestral home of Waverly Hall. At the reception that takes place in the evening, Sunny is snubbed by Larry\'s sister Elizabeth and his aunt Barbara in such a way that she wants to leave the reception prematurely and deeply hurt, but meets Aunt Barbara and can talk to the outwardly tough woman.
On the day of the wedding, everything of name and standing is gathered in Waverly Hall. But then Bunny and the circus people arrive, who want to surprise Sunny. Elizabeth sees this as a good opportunity to humiliate Sunny again and to ask the circus troupe to show what they can do before the wedding ceremony. When these, encouraged by Juliet and her partner Egghead, begin to entertain, Larry expels the circus troupe from the house. Sunny is so stunned by such behavior from her future husband that she joins her guests and leaves the property with them.
On the premiere evening of the new circus show with Sunny in the center, the performance is completely sold out. When Sunny takes the stage, she discovers that Larry, who bought all the tickets, is the only guest. Angry and disappointed, she storms off the stage and locks herself in her trailer. Larry then puts it on a trailer of his car and drags the trailer and Sunny to a waiting riverboat. Sunny steals on deck after a while. When Larry does not find her in the trailer, but instead finds her fur and a shoe on the railing, he thinks she jumped overboard and jumps into the raging water to save her. Sunny is very afraid for him, but also realizes how much he loves her. As soon as Larry is safe, they both embrace.

# Miami Beach, Barbados
**Miami Beach, Barbados**, near the town of Oistins, is a popular sandy beach in Barbados. It is located on the south coast of the island, with usually calm waters and brilliant sunset views. On its north side is Enterprise Beach, a much more sheltered bay popular with families. Miami Beach is popular with both locals and tourists. Each morning local seniors swim in the sea and exercise on the beach. Also a great break for bodysurfing and bodyboarding.
A large yellow lifeguard station stands at the junction between Miami Beach and Enterprise Beach.
It is also a popular docking area for cruises on board a catamaran. Miami Beach has a beach shopping complex and a snack bar which serves a range of local food and rum punch. There are also gardens close by. Miami Beach has been voted one of the Top 10 beaches in Barbados.
In 2004 the beach started to suffer erosion by the sea as a natural occurrence, and the beach is narrower than it was 20 years ago. Action by the local authorities (Barbados Coastal Zone Management Unit (CZMU) and the National Conservation Commission (NCC) has successfully stopped the erosion and started a programme, which is currently allowing the beach to naturally heal itself.
Miami Beach is considered to be a \"local hangout place\" by those who live near it

# Lynn Michaels
**Lynn Michaels** is a fictional vigilante appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character has been depicted as an ally of the antihero the Punisher. She was created by Chuck Dixon and John Romita Jr., and first appeared in *The Punisher War Zone* #7 (Sept. 1992).
## Fictional character biography {#fictional_character_biography}
She first appeared in *The Punisher War Zone* #7, as a police officer attempting to catch a serial rapist plaguing Central Park. Frank Castle / The Punisher is in the park as well, taking down targets of opportunity as he also hunts for the rapist. They both confront the criminal, but he escapes. Lynn and Frank team up to track him down, resulting in a series of confrontations with several international assassins. The rapist ultimately dies in a shootout that leaves Lynn wounded. While being treated, she plants a kiss on Frank. The fact that she worked with the Punisher becomes common knowledge among her colleagues on the force.
Later, Frank asks Lynn for help in tracking down an organization that is kidnapping people and stealing their blood so it can be illegally sold for medical purposes. Lynn kills the organization\'s leader, Mr. Sandeen, when he gets the drop on Frank, Ghost Rider and his ally Matt Murdock / Daredevil. Feeling that she had crossed the line again, she breaks down.
Everything changes for Lynn when she takes part in the arrest of a suspected thief, Clyde Allen Durkin, at his home. They discover evidence indicating that he has murdered several children, but due to warrant problems, the evidence is ruled inadmissible and Durkin gets jailed on only minor charges with no prison time. Disgusted, Lynn leaves the force.
The Punisher apparently kills himself with a bomb he had planted to take out a mobster\'s meeting. A government task force that targets vigilantes, called VIGIL, targets Payback, a new vigilante trying to fill the Punisher\'s shoes. He is Eddie Dyson, an ex-police officer who witnessed the murder of his family at the hands of mobsters. Lynn rescues Payback from VIGIL and takes up vigilantism herself.
### Vigilante murders {#vigilante_murders}
Through a \"gift\" of cigarettes, Lynn causes Durkin to look out his cell window so she can kill him with a sniper rifle. Lynn and Eddie agree to a temporary partnership to take down VIGIL. As part of this agreement, they allow themselves to be arrested after they destroy a Mafia-run numbers racket. Blackwell, an abusive and corrupt member of VIGIL, beats Eddie and Lynn. The two manage to escape; in response, Blackwell murders a straight-arrow VIGIL officer named Jessup and frames the two vigilantes.
Eddie and Lynn travel to the town of Laastekist, where many factions, including the local Mafia, quickly become aware of their presence. Despite his injuries, Eddie assists Lynn in killing several soldiers from the Valducci crime family. However, gunmen from the Cullen family badly injure Lynn in an assassination attempt. Eddie gets her medical treatment and they escape the town.
After recovering from her wounds, Lynn breaks into VIGIL headquarters looking for Blackwell, seemingly unaware he was killed by the \"dead\" Frank Castle. She rescues the sheriff of Laastekist, Harry Bendix, unjustly imprisoned by VIGIL. Two sympathetic officers, Einhorn and Nails, allow them to escape.
### Escaping the city {#escaping_the_city}
A former colleague identifies Lynn as the \"Lady Punisher\", responsible for the deaths of local drug dealers. Rosalie Carbone, the mobster who employed the dead men, sends an enforcer called \"Mondo Pain\" after Lynn and consequently, Bendix, who is injured in the fight. Lynn lures Pain away to protect him. She eventually finds what she believes to be the Punisher\'s personal diary, but becomes despondent upon realizing that he never mentions her once and burns it. She decides that Castle\'s life is not for her and persuades Eddie to give up vigilantism and start over with her. Lynn\'s father brings the two to a rural safehouse. A later sequence seems to indicate that the three of them are living peacefully, but it might have been Frank Castle\'s dream.
Lynn is later recruited by S.H.I.E.L.D., and poses as \"Diamonelle\" to infiltrate Jigsaw\'s gang. She shoots the Punisher\'s newest ally, Stuart Clarke, for being a cop killer. After Jigsaw is arrested, Lynn allows him to be murdered before being taken into custody.
## Abilities and training {#abilities_and_training}
Lynn is a trained law-enforcement officer which includes proficiency at unarmed and armed combat with various firearms. Like the Punisher, she is not averse to using guns in her war against crime. She wears a Punisher-inspired Kevlar costume

# Atis Kronvalds
**Atis Kronvalds** or **Kronvaldu Atis** (15 April 1837 -- 17 February 1875) was a Latvian writer, linguist and pedagogue, as well as a prominent member of the Young Latvia movement.
## Early life {#early_life}
Kronvalds was born to a tailor\'s family, but he was raised by priests in Durbe. After studying in Liepāja, he became a private teacher. In 1860 he started studying medicine at the University of Berlin; however, he left after half a year when he ran out of money. He returned to Latvia, where he resumed work as a private teacher in Durbe.
## Participation in \"Young Latvians\" movement {#participation_in_young_latvians_movement}
After returning to Latvia, Kronvalds joined the Latvian nationalist movement \"Young Latvians\" and became a passionate advocate of Latvian rights, language, and culture. In 1865 he moved to Tartu to study pedagogy at the University of Tartu. In 1868 he became a teacher at the teacher seminary there. He participated in the social activities of local Latvian society; notably, he renewed the \"Latvian evenings\" tradition begun by Krišjānis Valdemārs. He also wrote works of educational theory and several articles on education and linguistics. In 1872 he wrote *Nationale Bestrebungen*, the manifesto of the Young Latvians. In 1873 Kronvalds moved to Vecpiebalga, where he worked as a teacher in a local school; he also participated by delivering two speeches, in the first Latvian Song and Dance Festival in the same year.

# Airbase (DJ)
**Jezper Söderlund** (`{{IPA|sv|ˈjɛ̌sːpɛ ˈʂø̂ːdɛˌɭɵnd}}`{=mediawiki}), better known by his main stage name **Airbase**, is a Swedish record producer and electronic music artist. His experimentation with electronic music began in 1994 after he was introduced to a digital sequencer application called Scream Tracker. Since 2004, he\'s been using Ableton Live as his sequencer of choice and he\'s also known for posting HD tutorials on YouTube with various tips and tricks on how to make the most of Ableton Live.
## History
What started out as a hobby soon turned into a career in the trance scene. His popular works include remixes and original trance productions since landing his first recording contract in 2001. Although it is common practice in electronic genres for artists to use several aliases, Jezper is particularly notorious for having over a dozen pseudonyms. They include Scarab, First & Andre (together with his brother), Ozone, Moon, Inner State, J., J.E.Z.P., J.L.N.D., JZ, Loken, Mono, Narthex, One Man Army, Parc, Rah, and Mika J. However, since around 2005 he\'s been focusing almost exclusively on the Airbase moniker.
He continues to influence and be influenced by other artists. Tiësto, in April 2007, released his fifth solo album *Elements of Life*. During the release party, he played one of Airbase\'s mixes, \"Medusa\". After that, Airbase remixed one of Tiësto\'s songs: \"Break My Fall\".
In June 2009, Jezper began working on his first full-length album, *We Might Fall*. The album was released on 21 February 2011.
Additionally, he is hosting a monthly radio show called *Re-Mix* on the online radio station Afterhours.FM, which was later renamed to \"Touchdown Airbase\".
In 2005 together with his brother, Andre Söderlund, composed the anthem of Sensation event in Belgium under the name First and Andre with \"Widescreen\".
### Personal life {#personal_life}
Jezper made a personal announcement on his Airbase website on 1 October 2008, stating that on 27 September 2008 he got engaged to his then girlfriend, Jessica Ramboldt, who provided lyrics as Floria Ambra for Airbase\'s single \"Denial\", \"Interfere\" and \"Wonders\".
Jezper is also one of the three original creators of the dance music website Trance.nu. Jezper is also credited with the base layout and graphics on the Trance.nu website.
Aside from his musical career, he\'s also known for being a gear head. Together with longtime friend Tommie Podzemski, he hosts the weekly Swedish podcast \"Slashat\" where tech, IT, gadgets and web related news are being discussed.
On 5 March 2010 it was reported that Jezper emailed Apple CEO Steve Jobs directly, asking if iPhone to iPad tethering was possible. The answer, directly from Steve Jobs, was \"No\".

# Hemoperfusion
**Hemoperfusion** or **hæmoperfusion** (see spelling differences) is a method of filtering the blood extracorporeally (that is, outside the body) to remove a toxin. As with other extracorporeal methods, such as hemodialysis (HD), hemofiltration (HF), and hemodiafiltration (HDF), the blood travels from the patient into a machine, gets filtered, and then travels back into the patient, typically by venovenous access (out of a vein and back into a vein).
In hemoperfusion, the blood perfuses a filter composed of artificial cells filled with activated carbon or another microporous material. Small molecules in solution within the serum (such as the toxin) cross the membranes into the microporous material (and get trapped therein), but formed elements (the blood cells) brush past the artificial cells just as they brush past each other. In this way, the microporous material\'s filtering ability can be used without destroying the blood cells.
First introduced in the 1940s, hemoperfusion was refined during the 1950s through 1970s, and then introduced clinically for the treatment of poisoning in the 1970s and 1980s. It is sometimes used to treat drug overdose, sometimes in conjunction with the other extracorporeal techniques previously mentioned.
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) defines sorbent hemoperfusion as follows:
″(a) Identification. A sorbent hemoperfusion system is a prescription device that consists of an extracorporeal blood system similar to that identified in the hemodialysis system and accessories (876.5820) and a container filled with adsorbent material that removes a wide range of substances, both toxic and normal, from blood flowing through it. The adsorbent materials are usually activated-carbon or resins which may be coated or immobilized to prevent fine particles entering the patient\'s blood. The generic type of device may include lines and filters specifically designed to connect the device to the extracorporeal blood system. The device is used in the treatment of poisoning, drug overdose, hepatic coma, or metabolic disturbances.″
Hemoperfusion is also used in the treatment of specific intoxications, such as valproic acid, theophylline, and meprobamate.
Despite its availability, this technique is only infrequently utilized as a medical process used to remove toxic substances from a patient\'s blood.
## Types
Two types of hemoperfusion are commonly used:
1. Charcoal hemoperfusion, which has been used to treat liver (hepatic) failure, various types of poisoning, and certain autoimmune diseases when coated with antigens or antibodies.
2. Certain resins (polystyrene - XAD series) are frequently more efficient at clearing lipid-soluble drugs than charcoal hemoperfusion.
## Complications
Complications of hemoperfusion may include thrombocytopenia, leucopenia, hypoglycemia, and some reduction in clotting factors, with recovery typically occurring in 1--2 days. Risk of bleeding is also higher because of the high heparin dose and reduction in platelets and clotting factors.
## Indications for use {#indications_for_use}
During hemoperfusion, the blood passes through a column with absorptive properties aiming at removing specific toxic substances from the patient\'s blood. It especially targets small- to medium-sized molecules that tend to be more difficult to remove by conventional hemodialysis. The adsorbent substance most commonly used in hemoperfusion are resins and activated carbon. Hemoperfusion is an extracorporeal form of treatment because the blood is pumped through a device outside the patient\'s body.
Its major uses include removing drugs or poisons from the blood in emergency situations, removing waste products from the blood in patients with kidney failure, and as a supportive treatment for patients before and after liver transplantation

# Une vie d'amour
\"**Une vie d\'amour**\" (A life of love) is a song written by Charles Aznavour to the music of Georges Garvarentz. The Russian lyrics of the song were written by Natalia Konchalovsky.
## History
The original version, sung by Aznavour in French, was introduced in the 1981 movie Teheran 43 (USSR). In March of the same year, it was released by French Barclay Records in three separate albums: *Teheran 43*, *Autobiographie* and *Une vie d\'amour, a* single with Mireille Mathieu.
The song, whose title can be loosely translated as \"A Life in Love\", is a slow love ballad. There is also an alternative Russian translation (by Alexander Solin), a Chinese version of the song and a Yiddish version performed by the Barry Sisters

# Joss Stone discography
English singer Joss Stone has released nine studio albums, one compilation album, three extended plays, 47 singles (including 16 as a featured artist), five promotional singles, one video album and 21 music videos. As of May 2015, Stone had sold more than 14 million albums worldwide.
Stone\'s debut studio album, *The Soul Sessions*, was released in September 2003, consisting mostly of cover versions of soul songs from the 1960s and 1970s. The album peaked at number four on the UK Albums Chart and was later certified triple platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). It produced the singles \"Fell in Love with a Boy\" and \"Super Duper Love\", both of which peaked at number 18 on the UK Singles Chart. *The Soul Sessions* has sold five million copies worldwide.
In September 2004, Stone released her second studio album and her first of original material, *Mind Body & Soul*. It debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart, making Stone the youngest female solo artist to top the chart. The album spawned four singles, including \"You Had Me\", which reached number nine on the UK Singles Chart and became Stone\'s highest-peaking single on the chart to date. Like its predecessor, *Mind Body & Soul* was certified triple platinum by the BPI.
Stone\'s third studio album, *Introducing Joss Stone*, was released in March 2007. It failed to match the commercial success of Stone\'s previous albums in her native United Kingdom, reaching number 12 on the UK Albums Chart and being certified silver by the BPI. Nevertheless, the album debuted at number two on the *Billboard* 200 in the United States, becoming the highest-charting debut by a British female solo artist on the chart in the Nielsen SoundScan era at the time.
Following a highly publicised battle with EMI, Stone released her fourth studio album, *Colour Me Free!*, in October 2009. It reached number 75 on the UK Albums Chart, her lowest-peaking album to date. After parting ways with EMI in 2010, Stone launched her own record label, Stone\'d Records, and released her fifth studio album, *LP1*, in July 2011, in partnership with independent label Surfdog Records. Stone also joined Mick Jagger, Dave Stewart, A. R. Rahman and Damian Marley to form the supergroup SuperHeavy, who released their eponymous debut album in September 2011. Later that month, EMI released her first compilation album, *The Best of Joss Stone 2003--2009*. In July 2012, Stone released her sixth studio album, *The Soul Sessions Vol. 2*, a follow-up to *The Soul Sessions* that also consists of cover versions of classic soul songs. The album peaked at number six on the UK Albums Chart, earning Stone her first top-10 album since *Mind Body & Soul*.

# Techno Twins
**The Techno Twins** (later known simply as **the Technos**) were a British electronic music duo formed in London.
## Career
The band, consisting of husband-wife duo Steve Fairnie and Bev Sage, formed in 1977. In the 1990s, *Mixmag* magazine credited the Techno Twins with coining the phrase \'techno\' and starting the techno music revolution.
Separating from the band Writz, the duo decided that they would combine old songs with modern electronic sounds, and in December 1982 they were signed by PRT Records. Their debut single was a cover of \"Falling in Love Again\", and the song received airplay and critical acclaim from the press. It peaked at No. 70 on the UK Singles Chart, their only appearance in any UK chart. An album, *Technostalgia* followed, made up of songs from the 1930s and 1940s, and some self-composed songs with Dave Hewson. Later in the year, their version of Elvis Presley\'s \"Can\'t Help Falling in Love\" was released.
In 1983, following the name change to the Technos, the single \"Foreign Land\" produced by Joe Glasman was released, and reached the top 10 of the US Hot Dance Club Play chart. Later that year, the Technos began work with producer Anne Dudley, and recorded an album at AIR Studios.
In early 1984, the single \"Nighttime Heaven\" was released, along with a board game invented by Steve Fairnie called \"Hype\", a rock and roll career game. In August 1984, their last single, \"Spirit of the Thing\", was released.
Sage was guest vocalist on the Modern Romance song \"Queen of the Rapping Scene (Nothing Goes the Way You Plan)\", which reached No. 37 in 1982 on the UK Singles Chart. It was performed on *Top of the Pops* that year.

# Any Given Saturday
**Any Given Saturday** (foaled January 29, 2004 in Kentucky) is a retired American Thoroughbred racehorse and sire.
## Background
From the mare Weekend in Indy, a daughter of the 1992 U.S. Horse of the Year and U.S. Racing Hall of Fame inductee A.P. Indy, Any Given Saturday was sired by the increasingly important stallion Distorted Humor, who produced 2003 Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes winner Funny Cide. Consigned to the September 2005 Keeneland yearling sale, he was sold for \$1.1 million to WinStar Farm and partnered to Padua Stables, who entrusted his race conditioning to the United States\' leading horse trainer, Todd Pletcher.
## Racing career {#racing_career}
On September 15, 2006, Any Given Saturday won his racing debut at Turfway Park in Florence, Kentucky. He won again in his second outing in an October allowance race at Keeneland Race Course. Moved up to compete in a Grade II event, at the end of November he finished second in the Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes.
Racing as a three-year-old, Any Given Saturday won his first outing in the February 2007 Sam F. Davis Stakes followed by a strong second to Street Sense in the Tampa Bay Derby. Sent north to New York\'s Aqueduct Racetrack, he ran third behind winner Nobiz Like Shobiz in the Wood Memorial Stakes before finishing eighth in the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, 10½ lengths behind winner Street Sense.
According to his trainer, Any Given Saturday came out of the Kentucky Derby with a \"pretty bad foot bruise.\" Given two months to recuperate, by the time the colt returned to the track on July 4, he was all but forgotten as a contender in his three-year-old age group. However, he scored a four-length win in the Independence Day Dwyer Stakes, then on August 5 at Monmouth Park in Oceanport, New Jersey, he defeated highly regarded Hard Spun and Preakness Stakes winner Curlin by 4½ lengths in the million-dollar Grade I Haskell Invitational Handicap.
On August 15, 2007, it was announced that Any Given Saturday had been purchased privately by Sheikh Mohammed\'s Darley operations. The horse was scheduled to race for his current owners until after this year\'s Breeders\' Cup Classic. A spokesman for Darley stated that no decision has been made as to whether Any Given Saturday would compete in 2008 at age four.
On September 22, 2007, Any Given Saturday won the Brooklyn Handicap by 2½ lengths as the favorite over Tasteyville and Helsinki, topping \$1 million in career earnings. In late October at Monmouth Park Racetrack, he finished sixth on a sloppy track in the Breeders\' Cup Classic.
## Retirement and stud record {#retirement_and_stud_record}
Sheikh Mohammed\'s Darley Stud at Jonabell, near Lexington, Kentucky, announced that Any Given Saturday would be retired to stand for \$40,000 live foal for the 2008 season

# Maktorion
**Maktorion** or **Mactorium** (*Μακτώριον*), was an ancient town of Magna Graecia in Sicily, in the neighborhood of Gela.
Stephanus of Byzantium, who cites it from Philistus, mention that the town was founded by Monon (Μόνων). Herodotus, tells us that some Geloan citizens banished to Mactorium and Telines (Τηλίνης), an ancestor of Gelon, succeeded in restoring them back to Gela, on the condition that his descendants should be ministering priests of the underworld gods/goddesses.
The only clue to its position is that afforded by Herodotus, who calls it a city above Gela, by which he must mean further inland. Cluverius conjectures that it may have occupied the site of Butera, a town on a hill about 13 km inland from Gela, (Cluver. *Sicil.* p. 363), the editors of the Barrington Atlas of the Greek and Roman World place Maktorion at the ruins and archaeological site at Monte Bubbonia in the modern *comune* of Mazzarino, Province of Caltanissetta

# Surrender Dorothy (film)
***Surrender Dorothy*** is an independent film by director Kevin DiNovis which won first place at the 1998 Slamdance Film Festival. The film stars Peter Pryor and Kevin DiNovis (who performed when the designated actor left the production a week before filming). The film is shot in black and white. It is also notable for featuring the first film role for Elizabeth Banks, who appears in the credits as \"Elizabeth Casey.\"
The film was shot in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
## Plot
After the heroin-addicted Lanh robs his roommate Denis, Lanh attempts to hide out at the home of Trevor, Denis\'s best friend. Trevor is afraid of women. He uses Lanh\'s drug addiction to manipulate him, eventually transforming Lanh into Trevor\'s idea of a perfect girlfriend.
## Cast
- Peter Pryor as Trevor
- Kevin DiNovis as Lanh
- Jason Centeno as Denis
- Elizabeth Banks as Vicki
- Marcos Muniz as Angel
- Keri Merboth as Nadia
## Reception
Critical reception for the film has been mixed. *The Stranger* criticized it, saying that although it \"makes the most of its tiny budget\" it was ultimately \"inarticulate and immature\". Sam Adams of the *Philadelphia City Paper* admitted that the film was \"not without its flaws\" but was ultimately \"a bold, ballsy and attention-getting debut\". *Total Film* panned it, giving the DVD release two stars and calling it a \"yawn fest\". James Berardinelli gave it three and a half stars, praising DiNovis\'s performance. In *The A.V. Club*, Noel Murray called it \"memorable, but\...also grubby, harsh, and lacking in wit\". Leonard Klady wrote in *Variety* that it was \"disturbing, hard-edged tale of physical abuse and sexual aberration that pulls no punches\" but that it was ultimately \"decidedly for niche tastes\". Roger Ebert selected it for his first Overlooked Film Festival in 1999 in Champaign, Illinois

# Young America Cricket Club
The **Young America Cricket Club** (YACC) was founded on 19 November 1855 at the house of William Wister after the Germantown Cricket Club team refused to allow young players to gain cricket experience through match participation. Owen Wister, the nephew of William, wrote what is considered the first true Western novel ever written, *The Virginian*, the prototype for the first movie Western which came out as a silent movie in 1914 and has been filmed many times since that time.
## History
The Newhall family joined with the Wister family founding the club in 1855 with the first games played on the Wisters\' Belfield estate. The YACC team was largely responsible for keeping cricket going in Philadelphia during the Civil War. The YACC played at the Turnpike Bridge ground from 1858 to 1877 before moving to their new Stenton ground in 1879. The Germantown Cricket Club allowed YACC to share their Nicetown ground while their new ground was being prepared.
Walter and Charles Newhall became famous YACC players. Walter Newhall scored his first century aged 12. Charles was the most successful bowler against the 1872 England team earning the respect W. G. Grace, England\'s greatest batsman. Before Bob Newhall captained Philadelphia\'s first touring team in England the YACC played the Toronto Cricket Club in Canada. Three generations (ten members) of the Newhall family played on the YACC from its founding in 1854 to its merging with the Germantown CC in 1890. The Newhalls also helped administer cricket in Philadelphia. George Newhall became editor of the *American Cricketer* which had a 52-year publication history from 1877 to 1929.
YACC won the Halifax Cup in 1880, 1883 and 1885. The Halifax Cup won by a Philadelphia team in 1874 at Halifax in Nova Scotia became the social event of the year in Philadelphia from 1880 to 1926 by which time it was eclipsed by golf and tennis tournaments

# Michael J. Astrue
**Michael James Astrue** (born October 1, 1956) is an American lawyer and, under the pen name **A. M. Juster**, a poet and critic. He served as the 15th Commissioner of the Social Security Administration from 2007 to 2013. Astrue was Poetry Editor of *First Things* from 2018 to 2020, and became Poetry Editor of *Plough Quarterly* in 2020.
## Education
He graduated magna cum laude from Roxbury Latin School in 1974. He received his B.A. magna cum laude from Yale University in 1978 with honors in Philosophy and English, where he was also President of the Yale Political Union and won the Pierson Scholarship Award. He received his Juris Doctor cum laude from Harvard Law School in 1983. In 2013 he received an honorary doctor of laws from the New England School of Law and an honorary doctor of humane letters from Southern Vermont College.
## Career
After graduating from Yale, he worked briefly as a staff assistant for Senator Richard Schweiker (R-PA) and as a demonstration program evaluator for two non-profit organizations. He also took a two-month leave of absence to be co-coordinator of the 1980 John B. Anderson primary campaign in Connecticut, but did not support Anderson\'s run as an independent.
After graduating from law school, he clerked from 1983 to 1984 for U.S. District Court Judge Walter Jay Skinner. He worked as a litigation associate at the Boston law firm of Ropes & Gray from 1984 to 1985 and then worked in the United States Department of Health and Human Services as an Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Legislation (Human Services) from 1985 to 1986. He then served as Counselor to the Commissioner of the Social Security Administration from 1986 to 1988 where he led the agency\'s efforts to end its controversial policy of "nonacquiescence" to certain federal court decisions.
In April 1988, President Reagan named him Associate Counsel to the President where he served until June 1989. In that capacity he served briefly as White House Ethics Officer, oversaw litigation responses related to the Iran-Contra affair, and drafted the first operations plan for the 25th Amendment. President Bush nominated him for General Counsel of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in June 1989 and the Senate unanimously confirmed him later that month. He served until November 1992 and, by virtue of his position, he also had concurrent appointments to the United States Access Board, which received broad regulatory authority after enactment of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, and to the Administrative Conference of the United States.
As General Counsel, Astrue personally tried and won the first federal HIV discrimination enforcement suit, he personally argued and won the first patient dumping enforcement suit, and co-authored with David M. McIntosh the first accelerated drug approval regulation targeted for treatments for fatal diseases for which there was no significant treatment. He also was involved in high-profile disputes with National Institutes of Health Director Bernadine Healy over the patenting of human DNA sequences of unidentified function and with the state of Oregon\'s use of polling data about quality of life to deny medications to people with HIV; his positions ultimately prevailed in both disputes.
Astrue worked as a partner in the health law department of the Boston law firm of Mintz, Levin, Cohn, Ferris, Glovsky and Popeo from November 1992 until June 1993 until he joined Biogen as General Counsel in June 1993. At Biogen he was known for prevailing in multiple lawsuits attempting to block the sale of Avonex, which became a breakthrough drug for multiple sclerosis, and for obtaining important patent extensions.
In 2000 Astrue joined Transkaryotic Therapies as Senior Vice President-Administration and General Counsel. In that year he was also elected to a two-year term as Chair of the Massachusetts Biotechnology Council where he led the creation of the council\'s charitable arm, now known as MassBioEd. In 2001-2002 he was considered President Bush\'s top choice for Food and Drug Administration Commissioner but faced opposition from Senate Democrats because of his industry experience. In 2003 he briefly left Transkaryotic Therapies and then returned as chief executive officer. In twenty-six months as chief executive officer he engineered one of the most successful turnarounds in biotechnology history and then lost control of the company to Shire Pharmaceuticals in a controversial hostile takeover. In August 2005, Astrue was named Interim Chief Executive Officer of the failing Epix Pharmaceuticals and orchestrated a merger of the company with Predix Pharmaceuticals in May, 2006.
President Bush nominated Astrue to be Commissioner of Social Security on September 14, 2006. The Senate unanimously confirmed him on February 1, 2007, and he was sworn in on February 12, 2007. He inherited a rapidly growing backlog of disability cases, which he reduced significantly over his six years in office. One of his initiatives in this area was a system called "Compassionate Allowances" which expedites review of claims certain or almost certain to be allowed, often within a matter of days. A list of these qualifying conditions was created too which are all very serious, difficult to live with, and many are considered terminal illnesses. He moved the agency from its longstanding reliance on COBOL toward web-based systems and improved the quantity and quality of the agency\'s electronic services, which ranked at the top of the public satisfaction surveys of the American Customer Satisfaction Index. He saw that the agency\'s fraying computer center would be out of capacity by late 2012 and had no significant backup capacity; he built two new co-equal data centers, one of which became operational during his term and one of which became operational shortly after he left office. During his tenure the time to a hearing dropped to under a year, but then rose quickly after his tenure.
In August 2013, Astrue stepped into the interim CEO position at InVivo Therapeutics, a failing biotech company whose founder/CEO, Frank Reynolds, would later face criminal charges. Astrue refocused the company, put the long-delayed clinical program back on track, and identified his successor for the board. He stepped down in January 2014; the company was then able to raise money and continue work on its product for spinal cord injury.
Since leaving InVivo, Astrue has focused on his writing (see below) and nonprofit boards. He is currently a board member for the National Alliance for Hispanic Health and the Association of Writers and Writing Programs.
## Literary work as A.M. Juster (pseudonym) {#literary_work_as_a.m._juster_pseudonym}
In the June 2010 issue of *First Things*, Paul Mariani disclosed that Astrue had been publishing original and translated poetry for many years under the pseudonym of `{{nowrap|A. M. Juster}}`{=mediawiki}, an anagram of M. J. Astrue. His work has appeared in top literary journals, including *Poetry*, *Hudson Review*, *Paris Review*, and *Rattle*.
In 1995, Mona Van Duyn selected his sonnet "Moscow Zoo" as the winner of the 1995 Howard Nemerov Sonnet Award sponsored by *The Formalist*. He went on to win again in 2000 and 2008, thus becoming the only three-time winner of the award. In 2002 Rachel Hadas selected his book of original poetry and translations, *The Secret Language of Women*, as the winner of the 2002 Richard Wilbur Award. In 2014 he was a co-winner of the Willis Barnstone Translation Prize for his translation of a Middle Welsh poem by proto-feminist Gwerful Mechain.
He has published nine books: *Longing for Laura (Petrarch translations)* (Birch Brook Press 2001); *The Secret Language of Women* (University of Evansville Press 2003); *The Satires of Horace* (University of Pennsylvania Press 2008); *Tibullus\' Elegies* (Oxford University Press 2012); *Saint Aldhelm's Riddles* (University of Toronto Press 2015); *Sleaze & Slander* (Measure Press 2016); *The Billy Collins Experience* (Kelsay Books 2016); *The Elegies of Maximianus* (University of Pennsylvania Press 2018); and *John Milton\'s The Book of Elegies* (Paideia Institute Press 2019). He became the poetry editor of the journal *First Things* in September 2018

# Céa's lemma
**Céa\'s lemma** is a lemma in mathematics. Introduced by Jean Céa in his Ph.D. dissertation, it is an important tool for proving error estimates for the finite element method applied to elliptic partial differential equations.
## Lemma statement {#lemma_statement}
Let $V$ be a real Hilbert space with the norm $\|\cdot\|.$ Let $a:V\times V\to \mathbb R$ be a bilinear form with the properties
- $|a(v, w)| \le \gamma \|v\|\,\|w\|$ for some constant $\gamma>0$ and all $v, w$ in $V$ (continuity)
- $a(v, v) \ge \alpha \|v\|^2$ for some constant $\alpha>0$ and all $v$ in $V$ (coercivity or $V$-ellipticity).
Let $L:V\to \mathbb R$ be a bounded linear operator. Consider the problem of finding an element $u$ in $V$ such that
: $a(u, v)=L(v)$ for all $v$ in $V.$
Consider the same problem on a finite-dimensional subspace $V_h$ of $V,$ so, $u_h$ in $V_h$ satisfies
: $a(u_h, v)=L(v)$ for all $v$ in $V_h.$
By the Lax--Milgram theorem, each of these problems has exactly one solution. **Céa\'s lemma** states that
: $\|u-u_h\|\le \frac{\gamma}{\alpha}\|u-v\|$ for all $v$ in $V_h.$
That is to say, the subspace solution $u_h$ is \"the best\" approximation of $u$ in $V_h,$ up to the constant $\gamma/\alpha.$
The proof is straightforward
: \\alpha\\\|u-u_h\\\|\^2 \\le a(u-u_h,u-u_h) = a(u-u_h,u-v) + a(u-u_h,v - u_h) = a(u-u_h,u-v)
` \le \gamma\|u-u_h\|\|u-v\|`` for all `$v$` in `$V_h.$
We used the $a$-orthogonality of $u-u_h$ and $v - u_h \in V_h$
: $a(u-u_h,v) = 0, \ \forall \ v \in V_h$
which follows directly from $V_h \subset V$
: $a(u, v) = L(v) = a(u_h, v)$ for all $v$ in $V_h$.
**Note:** Céa\'s lemma holds on complex Hilbert spaces also, one then uses a sesquilinear form $a(\cdot, \cdot)$ instead of a bilinear one. The coercivity assumption then becomes $|a(v, v)| \ge \alpha \|v\|^2$ for all $v$ in $V$ (notice the absolute value sign around $a(v, v)$).
## Error estimate in the energy norm {#error_estimate_in_the_energy_norm}
In many applications, the bilinear form $a:V\times V\to \mathbb R$ is symmetric, so
: $a(v, w) =a(w, v)$ for all $v, w$ in $V.$
This, together with the above properties of this form, implies that $a(\cdot, \cdot)$ is an inner product on $V.$ The resulting norm
: $\|v\|_a=\sqrt{a(v, v)}$
is called the **energy norm**, since it corresponds to a physical energy in many problems. This norm is equivalent to the original norm $\|\cdot\|.$
Using the $a$-orthogonality of $u-u_h$ and $V_h$ and the Cauchy--Schwarz inequality
: $\|u-u_h\|_a^2 = a(u-u_h,u-u_h) = a(u-u_h,u-v) \le \|u-u_h\|_a \cdot \|u-v\|_a$ for all $v$ in $V_h$.
Hence, in the energy norm, the inequality in Céa\'s lemma becomes
: $\|u-u_h\|_a\le \|u-v\|_a$ for all $v$ in $V_h$
(notice that the constant $\gamma/\alpha$ on the right-hand side is no longer present).
This states that the subspace solution $u_h$ is the best approximation to the full-space solution $u$ in respect to the energy norm. Geometrically, this means that $u_h$ is the projection of the solution $u$ onto the subspace $V_h$ in respect to the inner product $a(\cdot, \cdot)$ (see the adjacent picture).
Using this result, one can also derive a sharper estimate in the norm $\| \cdot \|$. Since
: $\alpha \|u-u_h\|^2 \le a(u-u_h,u-u_h) = \|u-u_h\|_a^2 \le \|u - v\|_a^2 \le \gamma \|u-v\|^2$ for all $v$ in $V_h$,
it follows that
: $\|u-u_h\| \le \sqrt{\frac{\gamma}{\alpha}} \|u-v\|$ for all $v$ in $V_h$.

# Céa's lemma
## An application of Céa\'s lemma {#an_application_of_céas_lemma}
We will apply Céa\'s lemma to estimate the error of calculating the solution to an elliptic differential equation by the finite element method.
Consider the problem of finding a function $u:[a, b]\to \mathbb R$ satisfying the conditions
$$\begin{cases}
-u''=f \mbox { in } [a, b] \\
u(a)=u(b)=0
\end{cases}$$ where $f:[a, b]\to \mathbb R$ is a given continuous function.
Physically, the solution $u$ to this two-point boundary value problem represents the shape taken by a string under the influence of a force such that at every point $x$ between $a$ and $b$ the force density is $f(x)\mathbf{e}$ (where $\mathbf{e}$ is a unit vector pointing vertically, while the endpoints of the string are on a horizontal line, see the adjacent picture). For example, that force may be the gravity, when $f$ is a constant function (since the gravitational force is the same at all points).
Let the Hilbert space $V$ be the Sobolev space $H^1_0(a, b),$ which is the space of all square-integrable functions $v$ defined on $[a, b]$ that have a weak derivative on $[a, b]$ with $v'$ also being square integrable, and $v$ satisfies the conditions $v(a)=v(b)=0.$ The inner product on this space is
: $(v, w)=\int_a^b\! \left( v(x)w(w) + v'(x) w'(x)\right)\,dx$ for all $v$ and $w$ in $V.$
After multiplying the original boundary value problem by $v$ in this space and performing an integration by parts, one obtains the equivalent problem
: $a(u, v)=L(v)$ for all $v$ in $V$,
with
: $a(u, v)=\int_a^b\! u'(x) v'(x)\,dx$,
and
$$L(v) = \int_a^b\! f(x) v(x) \, dx.$$
It can be shown that the bilinear form $a(\cdot, \cdot)$ and the operator $L$ satisfy the assumptions of Céa\'s lemma.
In order to determine a finite-dimensional subspace $V_h$ of $V,$ consider a partition
$$a=x_0< x_1 < \cdots < x_{n-1} < x_n = b$$
of the interval $[a, b],$ and let $V_h$ be the space of all continuous functions that are affine on each subinterval in the partition (such functions are called piecewise-linear). In addition, assume that any function in $V_h$ takes the value 0 at the endpoints of $[a, b].$ It follows that $V_h$ is a vector subspace of $V$ whose dimension is $n-1$ (the number of points in the partition that are not endpoints).
Let $u_h$ be the solution to the subspace problem
: $a(u_h, v)=L(v)$ for all $v$ in $V_h,$
so one can think of $u_h$ as of a piecewise-linear approximation to the exact solution $u.$ By Céa\'s lemma, there exists a constant $C>0$ dependent only on the bilinear form $a(\cdot, \cdot),$ such that
: $\|u-u_h\|\le C \|u-v\|$ for all $v$ in $V_h.$
To explicitly calculate the error between $u$ and $u_h,$ consider the function $\pi u$ in $V_h$ that has the same values as $u$ at the nodes of the partition (so $\pi u$ is obtained by linear interpolation on each interval $[x_i, x_{i+1}]$ from the values of $u$ at interval\'s endpoints). It can be shown using Taylor\'s theorem that there exists a constant $K$ that depends only on the endpoints $a$ and $b,$ such that
: $|u'(x)-(\pi u)'(x)|\le K h \|u''\|_{L^2(a, b)}$
for all $x$ in $[a, b],$ where $h$ is the largest length of the subintervals $[x_i, x_{i+1}]$ in the partition, and the norm on the right-hand side is the L^2^ norm.
This inequality then yields an estimate for the error
: $\|u-\pi u\|.$
Then, by substituting $v=\pi u$ in Céa\'s lemma it follows that
: $\|u-u_h\|\le C h \|u''\|_{L^2(a, b)},$
where $C$ is a different constant from the above (it depends only on the bilinear form, which implicitly depends on the interval $[a, b]$).
This result is of a fundamental importance, as it states that the finite element method can be used to approximately calculate the solution of our problem, and that the error in the computed solution decreases proportionately to the partition size $h.$ Céa\'s lemma can be applied along the same lines to derive error estimates for finite element problems in higher dimensions (here the domain of $u$ was in one dimension), and while using higher order polynomials for the subspace $V_h

# Mullah Said
***Mullah Said*** is a studio album by British experimental musician Bryn Jones, best known under the name of his primary musical project Muslimgauze. It was released in July 1998.
In its three decennial iterations on Staalplaat, one of two record labels that Jones depended on for releasing music in the 1990s until his death, it was originally released as a digipak CD limited to an edition of 1,000 hand-numbered copies, followed by a repress in 2008, and finally a reissue on vinyl limited to 500 copies in 2018. It has been regarded as a definitive Muslimgauze album.
## Background and production {#background_and_production}
Mullah Said has been regarded as one of the greatest Muslimgauze releases, and has been considered a definitive and essential album of his discography, as well as an underground ethnic electronica cult classic. On YouTube, the title track of Mullah Said is the most viewed and streamed Muslimgauze track, with above 300,000 views.
John Delf, an engineer involved with multiple Muslimgauze albums recorded in his Manchester studio, the Abraham Mosque, assisted with production and engineering; it was the last Muslimgauze album he worked on before Bryn Jones\' death in January 1999, from which onward he continued to produce posthumous releases.
## Composition
A 1999 review of Mullah Said written by Glenn Hammett & Steve Taylor for their publication, The Raging Consciousness, proclaimed that \'those not familiar with Jones\' style will listen slack-jawed at the shear anticipatory nature of his sound collage\'. Upon the release of its 2018 vinyl reissue, record distributor Boomkat described it in a review as \'fall\[ing\] squarely in the category of crisp, richly layered and dubbed-out Bryn Jones productions\'.
The review also identified elements such as a repetitive dub bass beat, \'waves\' of electronic Middle Eastern strings and voices, and layers of building hand percussion, familiar elements of Muslimgauze\'s stylistic musical palette. Alongside this and the somber, distinctively warm Arabesque-synth tone of his ambient techno oriented albums, another familiar element present in prior albums like \"Veiled Sisters\" and \"Maroon\", the opening of the album features a sample of an Islamic call to prayer among other field recordings of the Middle East. Meanwhile, the two-minute outro track, \"An End\", features a lo-fi sample of a solo female Punjabi vocalist played over looped peacock calls and an occasional percussion loop with an indecipherable voice.
## Critical reception {#critical_reception}
Critical reception for Mullah Said upon its release was positive. An All-Music Guide review notes that as a distinct album in the Muslimgauze discography, it \'concentrates on the softer yet still ominous side of Muslimgauze, coming across as meditative, late-night music which still has an understated edge to it all\'. Glenn Hammett & Steve Taylor, for their publication The Raging Consciousness, gave the album two ratings: 8 for \'Music\', and 10 for \'Sound\'. They also commented that it is \'a rare, beautiful recording that is at times quite sad. This is also one of the most brutally dynamic and open (read; no boundaries).\' Anthony D\'Amico, writing for Brainwashed, proclaimed the album to be \'one of the most radical and inventive \"outsider\" albums to ever emerge from the dub tradition\'.

In 2014, Punto y Raya and Reykjavík Center for Visual Music joined forces to produce \"the greatest Abstract Visual Music and Live Cinema event in history\" which took place at Harpa and Reykjavik Art Museum in Reykjavík, Iceland. The programme featured live performances by Ryoji Ikeda, Ryoichi Kurokawa, Bret Battey and Hugi Guðmundsson, Max Hattler, D-Fuse, Usaginingen and others; Guest Austrian and Polish Film panoramas, and short film competitions bringing together nearly 500 artists from 46 countries.
## version 0·4 \| in space·time {#version_04_in_spacetime}
This version explores different ways to conceive and represent the fourth dimension.
- In relativistic terms the persistence of an object\'s movement through Time is a way to represent objects in 4d.
- Films where the \"camera\" goes right through solid matter to perceive the enclosed interior also represent reality as seen through eyes from the fourth dimension.
## version 0·3 \| in space {#version_03_in_space}
This version explores depth using several projection systems and the notion of perspective in 3d space.
## version 0·2b \| with an identity crisis {#version_02b_with_an_identity_crisis}
In the second version the festival explored all \"dots and lines of a schizoid nature\". That is, who suffer from an identity crisis and **wish to belong to another dimension**. A delightful journey through fractal dimensions inhabited by forms and movements that try to resignify the euclidean categories in a mathematical or poetic way.
## version 0·2 \| back to basics! {#version_02_back_to_basics}
This first \"version\" of the festival features exclusively dot·lines as ends in themselves. No figuration, no perspective, just dot·lines moving on a plane

# Curtis Act of 1898
The **Curtis Act of 1898** was an amendment to the United States Dawes Act; it resulted in the break-up of tribal governments and communal lands in Indian Territory (now Oklahoma) of the Five Civilized Tribes of Indian Territory: the Choctaw, Chickasaw, Muscogee (Creek), Cherokee, and Seminole. These tribes had been previously exempt from the 1887 General Allotment Act (Dawes Act) because of the terms of their treaties. In total, the tribes immediately lost control of about 90 million acres of their communal lands; they lost more in subsequent years.
The act also transferred the authority to determine members of tribes to the Dawes Commission as part of the registration of members. Thus, individuals could be enrolled as members without tribal consent. By effectively abolishing the remainder of tribal courts, tribal governments, and tribal land claims in the Indian Territory of Oklahoma, the act enabled Oklahoma to be admitted as a state, which followed in 1907.
## History
Officially titled the \"Act for the Protection of the People of Indian Territory\", the Act is named for former Vice President Charles Curtis, a Republican congressman from Kansas and its author. He was of mixed Native American and European descent: on his mother\'s side Kansa, Osage, Potawatomi, and French; and on his father\'s side three ethnic lines of British Isles ancestry. Curtis was raised in part on the Kaw Reservation of his maternal grandparents, but also lived with his paternal grandparents and attended Topeka High School. He read law, became an attorney, and later was elected to the United States House of Representatives and Senate. He served as Vice-President under Herbert Hoover.
In the usual fashion, by the time the bill HR 8581 had gone through five revisions in committees in both the House of Representatives and the Senate, there was little left of Curtis\' original draft. In his hand-written autobiography, Curtis noted having been unhappy with the final version of the Curtis Act. He believed that the Five Civilized Tribes needed to make changes. He thought that the way ahead for Native Americans was through education and use of both their and the majority cultures, but he also had hoped to give more support to Native American transitions.

# Curtis Act of 1898
## Major provisions {#major_provisions}
### Abolition of tribal governments {#abolition_of_tribal_governments}
The Curtis Act called for the abolition of tribal governments on March 6, 1906. In 1924, it declared all Indians to be citizens of the United States. \<ref name=\"Adams, David W. *Education For Extinction*. Retrieved Dec 13, 2021. It was intended to establish individual land holdings in the European-American model, for subsistence farming by families. The act also provided for the establishment of public schools.\<ref name=\" uslegal\"=\"\"\>Adams, David Wallace. *Education for Extinction : American Indians and the Boarding School Experience, 1875-1928* Lawrence, Kan: University Press of Kansas, 1995.
Due to the nature of the lands in Indian Territory and the dry climate, the 160-acre allotments were often too small to permit profitable farming, and many Indian families had to give up and lost their lands in future years.
### Land allotments modification {#land_allotments_modification}
The Act incorporated the basic points regarding land allotments and termination of tribal governments that had earlier appeared in the Atoka Agreement between the Choctaw and Chickasaw Nations. The Atoka Agreement had been rejected by a popular vote of the Chickasaw, but accepted by the Choctaw. The Curtis Act required that the Atoka Agreement be resubmitted to a vote of both nations. The agreement was approved in a joint election on August 24, 1898.
### Registration of tribal members {#registration_of_tribal_members}
The Curtis Act also scrapped the registration of tribal members that had been conducted under the Dawes Act and ordered new enrollments. This Act extended all provisions of the Dawes Act to the lands of the Five Civilized Tribes. In the end, the large parts declared by the government to be \"surplus\" to their needs were made available for sale, including to non-Natives. An estimated 90 million acres of land formerly reserved for Native Americans were removed from their control.
### Incorporation of towns {#incorporation_of_towns}
The Curtis Act also authorized the incorporation of towns in Indian Territory. This meant that towns had a legal basis for being laid out, surveyed, and plotted. Any individual could obtain title to the lot in fee simple. The title owner of a lot had the legal right to sell or mortgage the property. An incorporated town or city had the right to self-regulation and levy taxes, allowing them to establish public services. By 1900, the largest towns in Indian Territory had incorporated. These included: Ardmore, with 1,500 residents; Muskogee, 4,200; McAlester, 3,500; Wagoner, 2,300; Tulsa, 1,300; and Eufaula, 800.
### Provision for vote by residents {#provision_for_vote_by_residents}
Residents could not vote for the President or Congress in Indian Territory. The U.S. President appointed territorial government officials, so the question of voting for these officials was irrelevant. However, under the Curtis Act, male residents of Indian Territory, including American Indians, who met voter qualifications were permitted to vote. After Oklahoma was admitted as a state in 1907, residents could also vote for state officials

# Jahero
***JaHeRo*** is the video blog (vlog) started by Rosie O\'Donnell on her website Rosie.com answering fans questions, giving behind the scenes information and serving as a video diary. Originally featuring only O\'Donnell and her hair and make-up artist Helene Macaulay they were soon joined by her writer from *The Rosie O\'Donnell Show*, Janette Barber. O\'Donnell, her producer Barber, and Macaulay created unscripted video blogs Monday through Thursday prior to taping, during which they answered user-submitted questions. Called *Jahero*, composed of the first two letters of each of their first names, they occasionally had short cameo appearances by *View* co-hosts Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, and Barbara Walters. Jenny McCarthy appeared once briefly, as has Hasselbeck\'s mother-in-law and O\'Donnell\'s mother-in-law, her wife Kelli\'s mother. Kathy Griffin also appeared, where she read some of the questions. It became so popular that O\'Donnell and her creative team considered an \"on the road\" version of the video blog utilizing fan-submitted suggestions. O\'Donnell was the front runner for the \"best celebrity blogger\" category in the 2007 Blogger\'s Choice Awards which she won.
They adopted Bonnie Tyler\'s \"Holding Out for a Hero\" as their unofficial theme song with O\'Donnell quite frequently singing the chorus as \"I Need JAHERO\" after it was suggested by a blogger on Rosie\'s site.
*The New York Times*\' television critic and journalist Virginia Heffernan praised O\'Donnell for being able to be \"so watchable\" even though she has \"no commercials, no scripts, no music, no wardrobe, no crew.\" `{{quote|text=[T]he videos are pure Rosie, in the sense that with their unforgiving lighting and absent production values Ms. O'Donnell, the comic-actress-host, is revealing the last of whatever she was holding back on daytime television.

And, man, is this girl good on screen. [She] seems to be experimenting with an emo style, the morose deadpan known to YouTubers but anathema to TV and stage veterans like herself. But the Rosie-unplugged thing works.|sign=[[Virginia Heffernan]]|source="Really, Really Rosie", ''[[The New York Times]]'', June 21, 2007<ref name="Heffernan"/>}}`{=mediawiki}
## History
The video blog debuted on March 27, 2007 in the makeup/dressing room of The View at ABC Studios New York. Originally featuring only O\'Donnell and Macaulay, on April 18, 2007 Barber joined the cast. Occasionally Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, and Barbara Walters made short cameo appearances. Jenny McCarthy appeared once briefly, as did Hasselbeck\'s mother-in-law and O\'Donnell\'s mother-in-law (wife Kelli\'s mother). Kathy Griffin also appeared, during which she read some of the user-submitted questions.
Rosie left the View on May 25, 2007. JaHeRo reunited to create blogs twice at Rosie\'s home during the summer of 2007.
In January 2008, Rosie confirmed on her blog that she will re-unite with Helene for some blog videos when she tapes her appearances for \"Password,\" hosted by Regis Philbin. Rosie also said Janette will not be present.

Raised Roman Catholic, O\'Donnell lost her mother to cancer as a pre-teen and has stressed the importance of protecting children and supporting families throughout her career. O\'Donnell started her comedy career while still a teenager and her big break was on the talent show *Star Search* when she was twenty years old.

# Iwan Knorr
**Iwan Otto Armand Knorr** (3 January 1853 -- 22 January 1916) was a German composer and music teacher.
## Life
A native of Gniew, Knorr was taken to southern Russia at the age of four, where he was surrounded by Russian folk music. His mother taught him piano. The family settled in Leipzig in 1868, where Knorr attended the Leipzig Conservatory, studying with Ignaz Moscheles, Ernst Friedrich Richter and Carl Reinecke. In 1874, he became a teacher and in 1878 director of music theory instruction at the Imperial Kharkiv Conservatory, in what is now Ukraine.
In 1883, he settled in Frankfurt, where he joined the faculty of the Hoch Conservatory. In 1908, he became director of the school. As a teacher he exerted great influence.

His compositions include three operas, a symphony, a piano quartet and several sets of variations and suites, as well as pedagogical works of counterpoint and fugue, but he was not prolific. His 1888 piece for cello and piano, *Variationen über ein Thema von K. Klimsch*, has been recorded by Adrian Bradbury and Andrew West.

## Controversy
- According to the regulations of the competition, the final series (enforced for the first time this season) were supposed to be played in a home and away format. However, after C.D. España defeated C.D. Motagua 0--1 in the first leg, they traveled back to San Pedro Sula claiming the title and went on to celebrate in front of their fan base, thus misunderstanding the newly implemented rules. Motagua\'s president Pedro Atala Simón in order to avoid further conflicts, desisted in playing the second leg and granted the title which at that time represented the first championship to España and to the city of San Pedro Sula itself

### Storylines
#### Season three {#season_three}
Kirby, the daughter of Blake Carrington\'s majordomo, Joseph Anders, returns to Denver in \"Kirby\" (1982). Having grown up at the mansion, in recent years, she had been studying in Paris, where she worked as a nanny but left her job after she became romantically involved with her (married) employer. Upon her return, she reconnects with her childhood playmate, Blake\'s daughter Fallon Carrington. As adults, however, the gulf between rich and poor is more of an impediment to their friendship. In \"La Mirage\", Fallon hires Kirby to be the nanny for her young son, L.B. Colby. Kirby immediately has eyes for Fallon\'s husband, Jeff Colby. In \"Acapulco\", Joseph warns Kirby not to interfere with the troubled marriage. But as Kirby watches Fallon\'s relationship with Jeff deteriorate---mostly due to Fallon\'s infidelities---she ingratiates herself with Jeff. During this time, Blake\'s son Adam Carrington is also attracted to Kirby. Jeff protects Kirby from Adam\'s unwanted advances, increasing tension between the two men. Adam rapes Kirby in \"The Search\". He offers her a job in \"Two Flights to Haiti\", which she declines. Adam attacks Kirby again in \"Reunion in Singapore\", but she is rescued by Jeff. In the heat of the moment, Jeff (who has recently divorced Fallon) proposes marriage to her. Jeff and Kirby are married in Reno in the next episode, \"Fathers and Sons\". In the season finale \"The Cabin\", Kirby learns that she is pregnant and realizes that the child is Adam\'s, but is afraid to tell Jeff.
#### Season four {#season_four}
Joseph commits suicide in the season four episode \"The Bungalow\", and Kirby is devastated. Blake explains that Joseph had tried to protect him by attempting to kill Blake\'s ex-wife Alexis Colby in the cabin fire, and when he failed, Joseph shot himself. Kirby suspects there is more to the story. She confronts Alexis in \"The Hearing\", and then tries to strangle her. Blake manages to stop Kirby. Jeff learns that Kirby is pregnant with Adam\'s child in \"Peter De Vilbis\", and attacks Adam in \"The Proposal\". When Adam learns why, he tells Kirby that he wants to be a father to their baby. Kirby plans to leave Denver but Jeff stops her, though she suggests that they divorce. In \"The Wedding\", Adam insists that Kirby will tell their child that he is the father, but when he learns that she is divorcing Jeff, he proposes. Kirby accepts in \"Lancelot\". She is diagnosed with hyperreflexia and hospitalized, after which she suffers from seizures and convulsions, and doctors are forced to operate. In \"A Little Girl\", Adam learns that Kirby\'s baby has not survived. Adam and Kirby decide to proceed with their wedding plans. To prevent them from marrying, Adam\'s mother Alexis offers Kirby a job in Paris. When Kirby refuses, Alexis tells her the real reason Joseph tried to kill her: to prevent her from revealing that Kirby\'s mother did not die when Kirby was a child---she had been institutionalized. Kirby is shocked. In \"The Voice - Part 2\", she visits the sanitarium and learns that her mother died a few years before. Investigating further, Kirby finds her father\'s suicide note in Blake\'s desk in \"The Voice - Part 3\". Driven to the brink, Kirby buys a handgun. Kirby tries to kill Alexis in \"The Check\", but is interrupted. In the season finale \"The Nightmare\", Kirby pulls a gun on Alexis but cannot bring herself to shoot. Alexis agrees not to press charges if Kirby leaves Denver. Kirby abruptly breaks off her engagement to Adam and leaves town.
#### Season eight {#season_eight}
Kirby\'s older brother, Sean Rowan, comes to Denver and marries Alexis, plotting her downfall to avenge his father and sister. Kirby phones Sean and begs him to stop his vendetta but he does not care.
#### *The Reunion* (1991) {#the_reunion_1991}
Kirby is working in Paris as a translator for the Consortium when she runs into Adam Carrington. Kirby and Adam rekindle their romance as she helps him and Blake regain control of Denver-Carrington. Kirby and Adam announce their plans to marry at the end of the miniseries. While accepting Adam\'s proposal, Kirby teases Adam about becoming a Carrington so he offers to become an Anders instead, of which she gently disapproves although she is amused by the suggestion.

## Reboot
### Development
A *Dynasty* reboot premiered on The CW on October 11, 2017, featuring Alan Dale as Carrington majordomo Anders. In August 2018, The CW announced that Maddison Brown had been cast as Kirby for the second season.
Before the premiere of season two, executive producer Sallie Patrick previewed, \"we will come to see how Anders is keeping \[Kirby\] at arm\'s length, because not only do they have a complicated and fraught relationship, but she has an equally fraught relationship with the Carringtons, and Anders being the loyal friend to the family as well as an employee\...she jeopardizes many things for him. He loves his daughter, of course, but he also has never felt adequate parenting her, which was why she was living with her mother for some time in Australia.\"
### Characterization
Regarding Kirby\'s relationship with Adam, showrunner Josh Reims describes the couple as \"two equally damaged people.\" Following Adam\'s confession to Kirby in the season four premiere, \"some characters would hear that and say they never want to speak to him again, \[but\] Kirby understands that everyone has demons. She doesn\'t react as if she\'s horrified, which is a twist on what you\'d expect. She also goes on a pretty crazy path herself this season.\"
### Storylines {#storylines_1}
#### Season one {#season_one}
In the April 2018 episode \"A Line from the Past\", Carrington majordomo Joseph Anders (Alan Dale) reveals to Sam Jones (Rafael de la Fuente) that he has a daughter named Kirby, who lives with her mother in Australia. Anders moves to call her, but hangs up. In the season one finale \"Dead Scratch\", Steven (James Mackay) and Fallon (Elizabeth Gillies) tell Sam that \"psychopath\" Kirby lived with the Carringtons when she was a child, and tormented Fallon. Sam in turn reveals that he invited Kirby to attend his and Steven\'s wedding. She later appears at the mansion and greets her father, her face unseen.
#### Season two {#season_two}
Anders hides Kirby from the Carringtons in the season two premiere, \"Twenty-Three Skidoo\". Since she was suspected of arson as a child, Anders wants to keep her out of the way until whoever set the fire at Steven and Sam\'s wedding is arrested. After Kirby and Anders clash over her wild lifestyle and his mistrust, Kirby goes to stay with Jeff Colby (Sam Adegoke). In \"Ship of Vipers\", Kirby convinces Monica (Wakeema Hollis) to hire her at *Club Colby*, later unleashing rats in a rival club to prove loyalty. On opening night, Kirby confronts Fallon and promises revenge for having her sent back to Australia. Fallon has Kirby arrested for assault. Kirby is released in \"The Butler Did It\" under the condition she attend therapy. There, Kirby unlocks a repressed memory of Anders arguing with Fallon\'s mother Alexis (Nicollette Sheridan) over a one night stand they once had. Alexis caught Kirby listening in on the conversation and reprimanded her for it, leading Kirby to the revelation that Alexis had framed her for arson, not Fallon. Kirby confronts Anders who goes on to confront Alexis, and Kirby secretly records Alexis confessing that Anders is the father to one of her children. Kirby exposes the affair, and Anders confesses that Steven is his son. In \"Snowflakes in Hell\", under the pretense that it\'s Alexis, Kirby steals and racks up debt on Steven\'s credit card. Having to pay off the debt, Kirby convinces Jeff to let her cater for one of his poker games in \"Queen of Cups\". She later agrees to be Sam and Steven\'s surrogate. The surrogacy plan falls through in \"That Witch\", but Kirby makes amends with Anders, who invites her to move back into the manor. Kirby and Sam grow closer in \"A Temporary Infestation\" when taking care of L.B., a baby that was found on the Carrington property. They decide to get matching tattoos, leading to them both developing crushes on the tattoo artist and new nanny, Manuel (Yani Gellman), in \"A Real Instinct for the Jugular\". After L.B. is kidnapped in \"Crazy Lady\", Kirby rescues him from Manuel, and Anders accepts that Kirby has grown up.
In \"The Sight of You\", Kirby crashes Fallon\'s girls\' trip and assists in sabotaging Liam\'s girlfriend Ashley (Taylor Black). Fallon sticks up for Kirby during a barfight and refers to her as a friend. Kirby protects Sam and Fallon in \"Filthy Games\", exposing guru Lady Monk (Nicole Steinwedell) as a con artist before she is able to scam them. In \"Even Worms Can Procreate\", Kirby helps Sam on his path to becoming a social media influencer, but they find that his following is more interested in Anders. \"Parisian Legend Has It\...\" features Kirby giving Michael Culhane (Robert Christopher Riley) words of encouragement, and they continue to flirt in \"Miserably Ungrateful Men\". In addition, Fallon hires Kirby as her millennial content consultant for Femperial Publishing. In \"How Two-Faced Can You Get\", Kirby suggests feminist writer Gloria Collins (Andrea Bordeaux) as the first author for Fallon\'s company rebranding. Kirby and Michael agree that they should inform Fallon before letting anything develop between them, but Kirby grows hesitant now that she and Fallon are in a good place. A picture of Kirby and Michael kissing exposes the truth to Fallon, who is only upset because of Kirby\'s dishonesty. The two make amends, and Kirby asks to be the one to go with Glo on her book tour, having been the one to find her. Kirby returns in \"Thicker Than Money\", but a fight with Fallon sends her back to Michael. Kirby infiltrates Femperial Publishing\'s competition for information, resulting in Fallon\'s apology. Despite making amends with Fallon, Kirby decides to continue seeing Michael. In \"Deception, Jealousy, and Lies\", Kirby pushes for Anders to stop prioritizing the Carringtons over himself. Fallon sells Femperial Publishing to Kirby for one dollar with intent to take the company back, but Kirby betrays her after learning Fallon told Michael to break up with her.

# St. Barbara Church (Chicago)
**St. Barbara\'s in Chicago** (*Kościół Świętej Barbary*) - historic church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago located in Chicago, Illinois, at 2859 South Throop St.
It is a prime example of the Polish Cathedral style of churches in both its opulence and grand scale. Along with St. Mary of Perpetual Help, it is one of two monumental religious edifices that dominate the Bridgeport neighborhood\'s skyline.
## History
Founded in 1909 as a Polish parish to relieve overcrowding at St. Mary of Perpetual Help. Reverend Anthony Nawrocki, brother of St. Mary\'s pastor Stanislaus Nawrocki was the first pastor, thus the founding of the parish was a family affair in both the literal and figurative sense. In 2016, rumors began circulating surrounding the impending \"Renew My Church\" program. Rumors became reality in 2019 when the Archdiocese decided to \"merge\" St. Barbara with St. Therese Chinese Catholic School. However, unlike other \"merge\" plans in Renew My Church, St. Therese assumed possession of St. Barbara\'s school campus, administration, and rectory quarters.
## Architecture
The church was designed by the firm of Worthmann and Steinbach who built many of the magnificent Polish Cathedrals in Chicago. The Renaissance style edifice was completed in 1914, it is one of the few octagonal houses of worship in the archdiocese. There are 25 stunning stained glass windows, depicting the Gospel, and the lives of the saints

Today, he is most known for his soaring Sanskrit recitation and India\'s oldest radio show, *Mahishashura Mardini* (1931), a collection of shlokas and songs broadcast by All India Radio Calcutta (now Kolkata) at 4:00 am, in the dawn of Mahalaya. He also acted and directed several plays in Bengali theatre and even wrote the screenplay for the film, *Nishiddha Phal* (1955). A Bengali short film Birendra Krishna Bhadra - The Voice Since 1936 Was released In 2019 By Haalum Digital Media Entertainment Pvt. Ltd.
## Early life and education {#early_life_and_education}
Birendra Krishna Bhadra was born on 4 August 1905, to Roy Bahadur Kalikrishna and Sarala Bala Devi at a rented house in Ahiritola his maternal home, in north Calcutta (now Kolkata).His original home is Uthali village in Satkhira district of Bangladesh. Later the family moved to 7, Ramdhan Mitra Lane, the house bought by his grandmother Yogo Maya Devi. His father, Kali Krishna Bhadra was a linguist, fluent in 14 languages, and employed as an interpreter in a lower court and later became a known figure in the Bengali literary circles of the time. Kali Krishna married Sarala Bala Devi the second child of the then famous Police Court lawyer Kalicharan Ghosh, and in 1927 was awarded the title of Roy Bahadur. Roy Bahadur Kali Krishna had two sons, Bhupendra Krishna and Birendra Krishna. In 1926, Birendra Krishna Bhadra passed Intermediate, and in 1928 graduated from Scottish Church College, Kolkata.
## Career
He adapted and restructured several classics to produce notable radio plays. In the 1930s All India Radio, Kolkata started broadcasting a two-hour program called Mahishashura Mardini which describes the epic battle of goddess Durga with the demon king Mahishashura. The script of this program was written by Bani Kumar and the music was directed by Pankaj Kumar Mallik. It was recited by Bhadra. It was first broadcast on the Mahalaya of 1931. Since then, All India Radio have broadcast this programme on the Mahalaya of every year except 1976. The programme, which started off as a live-performance, has been broadcast in its pre-recorded format since 1952.
Bhadra wrote some plays including *Mess No. 49*, and directed a theatre production *Sahib Bibi Gulam*, a stage adaptation of the celebrated novel of famous author, the Bimal Mitra. In 1952, he dramatised Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay\'s novel *Subarna Golak* which was filmed in the same name in 1981. He also produced the famous radio drama *Shahjahan*, based on an eponymous historical play by Dwijendralal Ray. Chhabi Biswas played Shahjahan in that radio drama. It became immensely popular among the masses and is still considered as a classic Bengali Radio-drama. He also adapted many well known plays like *Chandragpta* (written by Dwijendralal Ray) and *Prafulla* (written by Girish Chandra Ghosh) in radio drama format.He reinstated the Durga temple in 1347 Bangabde in Uthali village of Tala upazila of Satkhira district of Bangladesh. Durga Puja is still going on in the temple.
## Legacy
His rendition, Mahisasura Mardini, is still played by All India Radio, every Mahalaya, marking the beginning of Durga Puja festivities. So popular was his version of the recitation that when in 1976, the voice of noted Bengali actor, Uttam Kumar was employed for the programme, it didn\'t get a favorable response from the audience and it was shifted back to the original version of Birendra Krishna Bhadra.
Subhasish Mukherjee portrayed him in his biopic *Mahalaya*, written and directed by Soumik Sen, highlighting the 1976 fiasco. Jisshu Sengupta portrayed the role of Uttam Kumar.
On the Mahalaya day in 2006, Sujata Bhadra, daughter of the late Birendra Krishna Bhadra, got a cheque for Rs 50,917 from music company, Saregama India Ltd as a royalty for her father\'s famous work.

# Hard sell
In advertising, a **hard sell** is an advertisement or campaign that uses a more direct, forceful, and overt sales message, as opposed to a soft sell.
The term is also used to describe aggressive sales techniques used by company representatives, particularly in the context of doorstep selling.
## Overview
The concepts that distinguish a hard sell from a soft sell have to do with directness of an advertiser or seller, rational appeal, and the amount of information given to the buyer about a product. A hard sell is extremely direct in nature. An advertisement will contain a forceful, loud slogan to grab buyers\' attention, or a salesperson will be very persistent, cornering their buyer into purchasing the product they are selling. In a hard sell, the advertisement or seller will focus heavily on the quality of the product and explain how purchasing such a product will be a rational decision that will help improve the buyer\'s life. This type of selling supplies an abundance of information to the buyer so they receive as much information about the benefits of the product as possible. The advertisement or seller uses such tactics to overwhelm the buyer with explanations, information, and persistence to ultimately create an incentive to purchase the good or service.
A soft sell is much more emotionally focused when put in comparison to a hard sell. An advertisement or seller will attempt to trigger feelings in the buyer that will make them want to buy the product that is being advertised. This selling technique is also much more indirect in nature than that of a hard sell. The subtlety of a soft sell is very evident, and many buyers often do not realize that they are being purposely directed in such a way to buy a product how a seller predicts that they will. The ultimate goal of this type of selling is to create a mood or image that will appeal to the buyer and make them want to spend their money on a product, all without the buyer realizing that this is occurring. Persistence is not as involved in a soft sell as it is in a hard sell.
## Principles used {#principles_used}
### Numbers game {#numbers_game}
A very large volume is needed to run hard sell. Even with small probabilities of success, enough sales can be achieved by attempting conversion on large customer bases to sustain the operation or even generate profits. This is especially useful when selling recurring purchases, such as subscriptions, warranty, or MLM products, because one sale will lead to recurring purchases.
### Emotional triggers {#emotional_triggers}
Most purchases are analytical decisions, and hence, require time to collect data about comparable products, make comparisons to fit individual needs and find budget to finalize a purchase. Hard sell attempts to bypass all that by using emotional triggers, such as appealing to personal aspirations, creating artificial scarcity, applying compliance principles, and exploiting cognitive biases or fallacies.
### Information asymmetry {#information_asymmetry}
Hard sell leverages information asymmetry, such as by avoiding comparisons with competitors, by delaying disclosures, by deflecting customer questions for clarity or information, or by limiting access to resources such as time (to decide), internet, or friends\' feedback (e.g. by running only in-person sales). Such information asymmetry is used as a leverage to make the sale seem more appealing than it actually is.
### Targeting
Some segments of the population are especially susceptible to hard selling, such as elderly people, unemployed, students, and minority groups.
## Advantages
The advantage of immediacy plays a large role in the concept of a hard sell and why so many advertisements and salespeople use this type of technique. Because this type of sell is so direct and blatant in nature, the person will most likely buy the product on the spot. A perfect example of this are mail order ads, where readers are urged to fill out a coupon right away. In opposition, a soft sell ad, because of its indirectness and subtlety, will allow for a person to have more time to make a decision as to whether or not they would like to invest their money in a product. A prime example of this type of sell would be life insurance advertisements where emotional appeals of family and security are mentioned. Persons are put in a less pressured environment, allowing them to contemplate their decision on whether or not to buy a product. Immediacy is more evident in a hard sell.

## Disadvantages
A hard sell may alienate some customers, who find it off-putting. Sometimes the pressuring nature that comes along with hard sell tactics can overwhelm a person to the point where they dismiss the sales pitch or turn away from the advertisement altogether. Emotional appeal is more involved in a soft sell and with the absence of this in a hard sell, business can be lost if persons do not respond well to the tactics, especially when times are hard. During the Great Depression, soft sell tactics, like brand relationship and humor, proved successful approaches. People\'s inability to spend on luxuries required some wooing for a sale. More direct hard sell tactics pushed away already stressed, calloused-minded persons during this time period of economic hardship.
In addition, a hard sell generates much more buyer\'s remorse, because the customer did not get enough opportunity or information before sale to balance the value provided with the cost of the purchase. In extreme situations, buyers may feel cheated or even scammed.
There is also criticism of hard sell tactics in regards to lack of creativity on the part of advertisements and sellers, which causes the would-be customer to never acquire intrigue towards the product being sold.
## Comparison with soft sells {#comparison_with_soft_sells}
The frequency with which either a hard sell or a soft sell is used is dependent upon the intent of its use---the goal of advertising agencies or salespeople. There are times where hard sells are the more rational choice for a sale, and where soft sells are required.
A hard sell is usually used when a seller wants their potential customer to do something soon---to make a call, to sign up for a subscription, or to buy a product in person on the spot. Sharpness and urgency is key in these situations to successfully make a sale. These tactics do not involve personable qualities or emotional appeal.
When situations change, a soft sell is used to help promote a brand and make the product likable in the eyes of a potential customer. Warmth and desire towards a brand induces a connection between the product and the individual, rather than action on the product by the person. Immediacy and urgent buying is not involved in a soft sell, but long-term value and loyalty to a brand can be established

# Honyaki
***Honyaki*** --- 本焼 --- (literally \"true-fired\") is the name for the Japanese traditional method of metalwork construction most often seen in kitchen knives, but also other tools. By forging a blade with a technique most similar to the tradition of *nihonto*, from a single piece of hard high-carbon steel, which is covered with clay during part of the processing, to yield upon quenching, three distinct parts to the blade:
1. a flexible and resilient spine
2. a *hamon* --- a temper line running the length of the blade
3. a hard, sharp cutting edge
Further, this steel can be either *mizu honyaki*, water-quenched, or *abura honyaki*, oil-quenched. The goal is to produce a sharper, longer lasting edge than is usually achievable with the lamination method. The term has been adapted to describe high-end mono-stainless steel in Japan and carbon blades by non-Japanese cutlers that have a *hamon*, but are designed and made with Western equipment, steel, heat treatment, and finished with etching and polishing.
## Traditional process {#traditional_process}
### Fuel and steel {#fuel_and_steel}
Pine charcoal is cut to size for use in the fire as gentle heat for the blade before quench. Coke is the most common fuel to forge the blade to shape and is preheated to remove remaining sulfur and phosphorus. Gas is cheaper and may also be used but may yield lower quality, whereas pine charcoal may yield higher quality but it is more expensive. An electric fan or a box bellow is used to feed air into the forge. The steel is usually one of the carbon knife steels Hitachi produces at Yasugi Specialty Steel. These are the unalloyed White steel (1, 2, 3) and the tungsten and chromium alloyed Blue steel (1, 2, Super), with White 2 the most common and Blue 2 the next most produced. Less common are White 1 and White 3 and rarely used is Blue Super (because it is much harder to forge due to the resiliency to stretching from the alloying), and even less common is tamahagane (as the steel is expensive, much more difficult to process, and must be correctly forge welded and flattened).
### Steel qualities and quenchant {#steel_qualities_and_quenchant}
Blacksmith skill aside and specific heat treatment aside, the 1 versions (higher carbon) are harder, more wear resistant, more fragile and harder to forge, harder to sharpen, and harder to straighten. The 3 versions (lower carbon, at the eutectoid point) are not necessarily softer, but often tougher, easier to sharpen, and easier to make. Blue steel is more difficult to forge, sharpen, and straighten (because the \"soft\" steel covered by clay still hardens). To perform traditional water quench on this steel can exacerbate the formation of cracks because of its deeper hardening. White steel 1 is difficult to forge and to quench due to its higher carbon and can become harder and more brittle than White 2. A water quench with these traditional steels and processes will result in a blade that is harder, stiffer, sharper with longer lasting sharpness but that is more difficult to sharpen and relatively less tough. An oil quench with the same steels will result in a blade that is marginally less hard, stiff, sharp with less lasting sharpness but that is easier to sharpen and tougher. The choice of quenchant depends on user preference of blade qualities.
### Forging
Unlike awase bocho, honyaki in general have no need to raise to forge welding heat. This skips the possible carbon migration to the mild steel and decarburization from the heating to around 1000 degrees Celsius. Furthermore, the smith skips the need to weld the layers careful under careful heating and to evenly forge the core steel. In this regard to forging White 2 steel, honyaki is easier than in awase bocho. More alloy and higher carbon make this more difficult. There are multiple re-heatings and forging from high temperatures downward. Blades are cooled and annealed in carbonized rice straw or ash, cut to rough shape, cold forged, and corrected for distortion multiple times. They are preferably left to stabilize for a bit between each step to help reduce distortion. The knife is rough ground to shape with the `{{Transliteration|ja|omote}}`{=mediawiki}, `{{Transliteration|ja|urasuki}}`{=mediawiki}, and profile. These steps generally require more effort than with laminated knives.
### Quenching
A paste is applied to the blade using water, charcoal, clay, ground natural sharpening stone, and other ingredients in a proprietary way and composition. This thicker paste goes on the blade spine on both sides and traditionally mimics the wavy hamon of nihonto. A thinner slip goes on the hard edge to help heat transfer there. It then must dry in air or over heat. The quench water or oil is prepared and brought to the right temperature. The forge is heated. Lights are turned off and the room shut from the outside. Once ready, the blade is buried and shuffled around in the charcoal and when it reaches the correct temperature it is thrust into water and moved forward and back (so as to prevent lateral distortion) and then after a couple seconds side to side. The knife could also be brought up slightly above temperature and then held in the room to the correct temperature before quench. The quench could be interrupted toward the end for more rough grinding or to correct distortion. The blade is tempered either immediately over fire, or in oil, or in an oven. The water quench regularly destroys many blades by cracking them or warping them too badly to reasonably sell.

## Traditional process {#traditional_process}
### Sharpening and finishing {#sharpening_and_finishing}
The forged and quenched blade is preferably left to sit for some time to age-harden, so that when the knife is made straight, few if any distortions will appear later on as the knife ages further. If the knife is being made under the Sakai, Osaka production system, the knife is sent to a sharpener who corrects for distortion and sharpens simultaneously to make the final geometry and profile of the knife, and then is finished by polishing, engraving, and installation of handle by other craftsmen. It may be mirror polished or finished with natural stones to highlight the hamon, resist rusting, and improve balance and some honyaki display alloy banding upon polish. The handle is installed and a saya is usually made. Ebony fittings denote ornamental display as the wood is hard enough to scratch the blade in the saya and the ebony can crack under changes in humidity, and the extra weight may make holding the knife more tiring but can help balance with longer blades. If used for work, it represents the status of the cost and knowledge of proper care and use. The extra labor in manufacture, sharpening, and finishing, time lost to failed blades, and skill in temperature control and forging contributes to the higher price compared to usual laminated blades.

## Culture and use {#culture_and_use}
### Craftsman
Honyaki is the application of Japanese swordsmithing tradition. Blacksmithing backgrounds (specialty, personality, geography, family lineage, teacher, knowledge, money, tradition, business structure) differ and accordingly produce different interpretation of the technique. It usually represents the best work of all craftsmen involved.
### Chef
Traditionally chefs first learn to use stainless, then kasumi, hon-kasumi, and finally mizu or abura honyaki. The honyaki knives are usually used only after completion of an apprenticeship after becoming proficient in ingredients, cooking, sharpening, and knife use. Honyaki knives are usually harder to sharpen in comparison to laminated blades because they have no mild steel that is quickly removed and are usually even harder. They usually chip more easily in use and sharpening and are extra sensitive to hard surfaces including in sharpening. As the edge is more fragile, the user must know how to hold, cut, sharpen, store, and care for it.
### Laminated v. *Honyaki* steels {#laminated_v._honyaki_steels}
From a strictly heat treat and microscopy point of view, there should be no difference between a laminated and honyaki steel with the same observed structure and heat treat process, but the heat treat necessarily differs, and many users say there is benefit to honyaki. Many users also prefer laminated blades for ease of maintenance, sharpening feel, cost, and toughness. Many blacksmiths prefer laminated blades because at the minimum, they are easier to produce. At the highest levels they have core steel of comparable hardness and sharpness and are not necessarily easier to make due to the skill to forge weld at lower temperatures, with minimal loss of carbon, less flux and iron powder, and with minimal scars while stretching out the laminate. Pattern welding (suminagashi) requires its own skill as well and can produce a stiffer awase knife with less distortion during use and sharpening.
