Thessaloniki-born Jewish journalist Lucien Sciuto in Istanbul in 1909 and published there until 1919. After five-year hiatus Sciutto restarted L'Aurore as weekly magazine in Cairo in 1924, and it folded in 1941. History L'Aurore was published first in Istanbul as a newspaper and then, in Cairo as a weekly magazine. All issues of the publication were archived by the National Library of Israel. Istanbul (1909–1919) L'Aurore was established by Lucien Sciuto as a newspaper in Istanbul in 1909 following the Young Turk revolution. He was a Jewish and Zionist activist from Thessaloniki. The paper was edited by Lucien Sciuto and was one of two leading Zionist publications in Istanbul. The other one was Le Jeune Turc which was also published in French. However, the circulation of Le Jeune Turc was much higher than that of L'Aurore, 15,000 copies and 1,500 copies, respectively.

the exploitation of petroleum in its relation to the economy of France. World War I In 1917, France effectively exhausted its supply of oil, and had to be rescued by the United States. After the war, the French government sought to correct this situation happening again. The l'Office National des Combustibles liquides was formed in 1925, with an important law passed in 1928. Formation of companies On 28 March 1924, the Compagnie Française de Pétrole (CFP) was created, which later formed the subsidiary Compagnie Française de Raffinage (CFR), which became the Total group. These two companies were given responsibility by the French government for Iraqi crude oil due to France. The Total product of petrol was introduced in 1954, with the company being renamed Total-C.F.P. in 1985. The Elf group began after World War II.

In 1999, President Mkapa shifted many of his ministers to new positions, and Ntimizi assumed the position of Deputy Minister of Health. In that position Ntimizi reported to have officially announced the cessation of Tanzania importing the anti-malaria drug chloroquine as a result of growing resistance to the drug in malaria-causing parasites. In the 2010 general election, Ntimizi chose not to run for office again in order to allow younger members of her party the opportunity to run for her seat.

natural sciences at the University of Rostock since 2012. She teaches and researches experimental physics, specifically, surface and interface physics, nanophysics, and scanning probe methods. Speller is currently a member of the German Physical Society. Education After gaining her Abitur in Haren, Germany, she proceeded to attend the University of Osnabruck (1986-1992) where she studied physics. In 1995, she was awarded a Dr. rer. nat. by the University of Osnabruck where she worked as a research associate (1992-1995). She continued her academic career as a postdoc and a scientific assistant (research fellow) at TU Eindhoven in the Netherlands, University of Osnabruck, and finally the University of Leuven in Belgium until 2001. She was then appointed as the Chair of Experimental Physics at the Radboud University in Nijmegen, Netherlands until 2012. Finally, she became a professor at the University of Rostock, where she currently teaches and studies. Teaching and research areas Dr. Speller works with surface and interface physics, nanophysics, and scanning probe methods. Surface and interface physics are sub-disciplines of solid state physics. Interface physics is the study of the small atomic layers that separate two distinct, and intimately connected, surfaces. By extension, surface physics seeks to better understand surfaces, a very simple type of interface, at an atomic level. Both of these niches are utilized primarily to analyze research questions regarding nanoscience, corrosion and catalysts research. Scanning probe methods, more commonly known as scanning probe microscopy, is a study centered around the tools used to

Both of these niches are utilized primarily to analyze research questions regarding nanoscience, corrosion and catalysts research. Scanning probe methods, more commonly known as scanning probe microscopy, is a study centered around the tools used to make images of nanoscale structures and surfaces, like atoms. In addition to her career as an academic, Dr. Speller has made contributions to medical research and has been cited in numerous books. In some of her most recent work, focused on combatting shortcomings within the field of medical implantology, she sought to find a better design for longterm, tissue-integrated implants. Outside of her personal academic achievements, Dr. Speller has been cited in several books including Laser Ablation and Desorption and Nano-society: Pushing the Boundaries of Technology. Her work as a researcher has been useful in advancing knowledge across a variety of fields and disciplines. Publications (Selected) den Boer, D., Li, M., Habets, T., Iavicoli, P., Rowan, A.

of seats in most of the municipalities. Electoral irregularities were present at voting stations, and physical attacks towards opposition activists also took place. During the inter-election period between March and October 2021, dialogues between the government and opposition parties regarding the electoral conditions were held over the course of several months. The two groups reached an agreement on 29 October, after which they signed the document regarding the improvement of electoral conditions that includes changes to the minimum required number of collected signatures for minority ballots, and changes to electoral-driven bodies and rules. During this period, environmental protests also gained more presence, most notably after the roadblocks in November and December. A constitutional referendum also took place in January 2022, in which the "yes" option, which was supported by the government, prevailed over the "no" option, although the turnout was reported to be the lowest since 1990. Electoral system Local elections in Serbia are held under a proportional representation system in the area of a municipality or a city as a whole. Shortly prior to the election, parties must submit a ballot list and their ballot leader; after the election, elected members vote to elect a mayor or the president of a municipality. A ballot list must receive at least 3% of the popular vote in order to cross the threshold, and 40% of the ballot candidates must be female. Minority ballots need to collect at least 5,000 signatories in order to qualify on ballot. One mandate of a mayor, president of a municipality or an elected member of a local assembly lasts four years. Results and campaign Ivica Dačić, the

Blackfeet tribe. While living in Montana he completed bust sculptures of John Two Guns White Calf, Chief Bad Roads, and Mountain Chief (Ninastuko). One of his pupils was Blackfeet artist Albert Racine. Voisin returned to Paris in 1930 to exhibit his Native American bronze cast sculptures, which won him awards. A year later in 1931, he moved to Oregon. In 1933, Voisin moved to San Francisco, where he purchased the Albion Castle, formally the home of the Albion Ale And Porter Brewing Company and a natural occurring mineral water spring. Over the span of almost 20 years he worked to restore the Norman-style stone building, using the aid of old photographs. In 1964, the property was purchased by the San Francisco Mountain Springs Water Company in order to use the springs. Voisin was allowed to remain living on the property beyond that date as a clause of the sale. In 1971, the Gonzaga University in Spokane received 53 sculptures for their Pacific Northwest Indian Center (now known as the Northwest Museum of Arts and Culture). At the time of the donation, the center had planned an entire Voisin Gallery wing dedicated to his work. Death and legacy Voisin died on May 8, 1979 in Palos Verdes Estates, California. He was preceded in death by his wife Frances Maude Voisin (née Vahuy) in 1965, and they are both buried in Golden Gate National Cemetery. Voisin's work was part of the Bill and Dorothy Harmsen

from France. He was raised in Newport, Rhode Island. Voisin first learned the art of taxidermy and apprenticed as a woodcarver. In his early career he studied art under Elijah Baxter Jr. and William Sergeant Kendall at the Yale School of Fine Arts (now Yale School of Art). He continued his art studies in France at the Beaux-Arts de Paris; the École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs; and at Académie Colarossi. He also worked under Jean Antoine Injalbert and Antonin Mercié in France. While studying at Beaux-Arts de Paris, Voisin was using the an art bronze foundry, when he met the sculptor Alexander Calder, who was a few years older. Calder strongly disliked Voisin's work which he wrote about in his journal. While in France during World War I, he served first in the American Volunteer Motor Ambulance Corps; and later served in the 49th Infantry Regiment in the United States Army. After the war he moved to California "for his health", as he had been exposed to mustard gas. Career While living in southern California around 1919, he fulfilled multiple architectural commissions for sculptural works, including work on Hearst Castle. In 1927, he did architectural commission work for the Oriental Theatre in Portland, Oregon for an interior sculpture similar to a Khmer sculpture at Angkor Wat. In 1929, he moved to Montana, to "live among the Indians" with the Blackfeet tribe. While living in Montana he completed bust sculptures of John Two Guns White Calf, Chief Bad Roads, and Mountain Chief (Ninastuko). One of his pupils was Blackfeet artist Albert Racine.

its gameplay involve completing quests given by various non-player characters and fulfilling various objectives. In most instances, quests in Eastshade involve doing good deeds, helping people see the error of their ways, and bringing communities together through the player character's artistry. The compositional mechanics for the player's paintings resemble the framing involved in taking a picture rather than painting one. Development and release Eastshade Studios developed and released Leaving Lyndow prior to their work on Eastshade. Besides serving as an introduction to the in-game universe of Eastshade, the developers wanted to develop working experience on shipping a smaller project before attempting a more large-scale project, and that the sales revenue from Leaving Lyndow was intended to supplement the funding of Eastshade. Eastshade was released for Microsoft Windows on 13 February 2019 and on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 consoles on 21 October 2019. The game was available as part of the Xbox Game Pass service from November 2020 until October 2021. Reception The PC version of Eastshade received "generally favorable" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic. Becky Waxman from Adventure Gamers gave Eastshade a perfect score and called it a "polished, immersive trek through a world so alluring it’s a shame it doesn’t actually exist". David Wildgoose from GameSpot thought of Eastshade as a rare first-person open world

ports for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One were released on October 21, 2019. Eastshade received a generally positive reception from critics. Gameplay Eastshade has no combat mechanics, as its gameplay involve completing quests given by various non-player characters and fulfilling various objectives. In most instances, quests in Eastshade involve doing good deeds, helping people see the error of their ways, and bringing communities together through the player character's artistry. The compositional mechanics for the player's paintings resemble the framing involved in taking a picture rather than painting one. Development and release Eastshade Studios developed and released Leaving Lyndow prior to their work on Eastshade. Besides serving as an introduction to the in-game universe of Eastshade, the developers wanted to develop working

plaque on the monument to feel pride in our city, the birthplace of great thinkers". On 1 August 2021, members of the council held a referendum in the state to determine whether or not the monument had to be removed. Of the ten tables installed, 905 people voted: 810 in favor and 87 against. Of those votes, 259 came from inhabitants of Morelia: 172 in favor and 87 against. The government did not qualify it as a binding consultation because it only represented 0.03% of the city's population. On 11 October 2021, members of the council threatened to topple the monument the following day. Instead, they covered the sculptures with a blue tarpaulin. Toppling On 14 February 2022, members of the council toppled the sculptures of Fray Antonio and the master builder, with the former being beheaded. In this regard, the CSIM published a bulletin informing that "[g]iven the indolence, racism, discrimination and lack of attention by the Morelia City Council [...] we decided collectively in a General Assembly of Authorities, to remove on our own account the so-called sculpture 'The Builders', for being a symbol of subordination, representation of slavery and an emblem of Spanish genocide". The damage amounted to 800,000 pesos (37,000 US$) according to the State Attorney General's Office, while the city estimated it at 200,000 pesos (9,700 US$). The event took place on the 492nd anniversary of the execution of Tangaxuan II, the last ruler of the Purépecha State, by Nuño de Guzmán, a Spanish conquistador. The police arrested 24 people in various locations, 21 of whom were adults who agreed to repair the damage caused; the remaining three were minors who were referred to the corresponding court. During the same night, and as a protest, demonstrators stole three vehicles and set them on fire on Mexican Federal Highway 14. By 28 February, the defendants challenged the agreement because they considered that their rights had been violated by being arrested outside the area where the events occurred, by being exposed by the media during the protest and by being physically assaulted during their arrests, and at the same time they notified that they would legally proceed against those who arrested them. Prior to its toppling, Padilla Retana said: "In the time of Francisco Antonio de San Miguel there was a great famine, he was a source of work for multiple indigenous people who came from various places. This sculpture had no major complication, I represented what I was asked for, I imagined the scene according to the historical elements. It represents the mason, the stonemason, those who direct the work. I don't understand why they are surprised that someone is naked and another with clothes, that's how the work was in those times and even nowadays. It's not about hurting anyone or offending anyone, it's about highlighting the human sacrifice, the effort". After its partial destruction, Padilla Retana commented that the monument was not intended to "humiliate anyone, nor denigrate our

historic center of Morelia, in the state of Michoacán. It was installed on 18 May 1995 and the government of the state unveiled it three days later. The monument was never registered as municipal, state or national heritage. By 2020, members of the Supreme Indigenous Council of Michoacán (Spanish: Consejo Supremo Indígena de Michoacán; CSIM), which is integrated by 60 indigenous communities in the state, requested to the local government the removal of the monument citing their disagreement with it and labeled it as racist, as a symbol of slavery and submission, and a reminder of the Spanish conquest of the Purépecha State, which they termed as a genocide. The CISM also argued that the monument recalled centuries of exploitation and trivialized how the architects and priests treated the Indigenous populations. According to the historian Eduardo Rubio Elosúa, there is no evidence of slavery involved in the construction of the aqueduct. On 12 October 2020 (Columbus Day or Día de la Raza, as it is locally known), performed a demonstration next to the monument and damaged it minimally. The city's cultural heritage body said about the requested removal: "You just have to read the simple and clear plaque on the monument to feel pride in our city, the birthplace of great thinkers". On 1 August 2021, members of the council held a referendum in the state to determine whether or not the monument had to be removed.

sides. The result is a complex novel that offers rare insights into how the police operate." London was nervous of ITV's proposal to televise Post Mortem as she had experienced two previous, unsuccessful, attempts at turning her book into script. Cast DS Sarah Collins (Gemma Whelan) DC Steve Bradshaw (Jimmy Akingbola) Lizzie Adama (Tahirah Sharif) Inspector Kieran Shaw (Emmett J. Scanlan) Younes Mehenni (Nabil Elouahabi) PC Hadley Matthews (Nick Holder) Farah Mehenni (Lola Elsokari) Detective Chief Inspector Tim Baillie (Karl Davies) Rex Parry (Ben Stoddard) Cast background Gemma Whelan is probably best known as her character Yara Greyjoy in the HBO series Game of Thrones; Collins is her first primetime lead character. Tahirah Sharif was previously seen in The Haunting of Bly Manor and played minor characters in soaps such as Waterloo Road and Casualty. Jimmy Akingbola had roles in Kate & Koji and Holby City, Emmett J. Scanlan and Nick Holder were both in Peaky Blinders, while Nabil Elouhabi has had parts in Deep State, His Dark Materials and Only Fools and Horses. Karl Davies had previously appeared in Happy Valley, Brief Encounters, and Chernobyl, while The Tower was Lola Elsokari's and Ben Stoddard's first television roles. Characters DS Collins—described by The Guardians Hollie Richardson as "a heavy-sighing, perma-frown primetime detective" and an "outlier and an outsider"—is a Detective Sergeant from the Directorate of Special Investigations. The Telegraph suggested that she displayed a "rigid attention to detail at work that masks a sadness in her personal life, which seems to be represented by a signature anorak that is the colour of a dying autumn leaf". Ed Cumming of The Independent, summarises her as "a single, gay, childless cop: it’s made to look like a thankless gig". PC Lizzie Adama is a newly qualified rookie, having been in the MPS for six months. Constable Matthews, a veteran cop of the old school, aspires to become a Police training officer. He is only seen in flashbacks. Kieran Shaw is Adama's and Matthews' immediate superior and has been engaging in an extramarital affair with the former. His relationship with the DSI team becomes increasingly fractious, and Collins suspects him of knowing far more about Adama's disappearance than he is letting on. However, he is protected by his superior, DCI Tim Baillie, until the last series. Production The show was commissioned by ITV and produced in three 50 minute episodes by Mammoth Screens—a subsidiary of ITV—and Windhover Films, owned by Harbinson. It was produced and edited by Paul Testar and Gez Morris respectively. Several different scenarists were considered before Patrick Harbinson, who had previously co-produced the Showtime series Homeland, was chosen as both writer and executive producer. It was directed by Jim Loach and developed for television by Sly Fox Productions. Locations The COVID-19 pandemic prevented Harbinson from doing the usual thorough location searches, and he had to rely on images being Dropboxxed to him from around the country. Although set in southeast London, The Tower was predominently filmed in northwest England, with a week spent in London during post-production doing pick-up shots, particularly of the City of London skyline. Northern locations included Liverpool, Manchester, Runcorn, Warrington and Knutsford's Tatton Park. Sharif later recalled the scenes filmed in Liverpool as particularly difficult due to pervasive rain, which made her "emotional, heavy dialogue...challenging". The disused cellars of the Martins Bank Building in Liverpool was used to replicate the police cellblock. Episodes Reception Although the original book was published many years before the murder of Sarah Everard by serving Met officer, Wayne Couzens, the show's timing made the comparison obvious to critics. Paul Kendall, for example, in The Telegraph, placed the show squarely in the context of contemporary police-public relations, particularly in the aftermath of the Couzens case. The Guardian's Lucy Mangan considered the show's release timely, as "trust in officers is at an all-time low". She was generally positive about the first episode, writing that "the plot builds at pace but without inducing vertigo in the viewer", and noting its background of "racial tensions, bigger crimes, personal secrets and political arse-covering".

She was generally positive about the first episode, writing that "the plot builds at pace but without inducing vertigo in the viewer", and noting its background of "racial tensions, bigger crimes, personal secrets and political arse-covering". Writing in The Times, Carol Midgley identified an "aura of grim authenticity", which she put down to the original author's police background. Although she noticed a Line of Duty-style "what are all these coppers hiding?" trope, she considered the show to have successfully avoided the tendency to focus on the murder of females. Midgely criticised the sound engineering, though, complaining that at times it was difficult to hear; "was it just my old ears or were the actors going for a mumbling level worthy of The Wire?" A similar criticism, of muffled—and also hurried—dialogue was made by Digital Spy, who argued that this was a common refrain from viewers on Twitter. Anita Singh of The Telegraph also criticised dialogue which sounded as if some cast members were "mumbling at their shoes". She summed up the series, effectively, as "everyone is lying about what happened and Collins is here to find out why", although she disagreed that the series was derivative of Line of Duty: while the DSI might appear to be another A10, she suggested The Tower had a greater sense of day-to-day realism that the similar programs. Also addressing comparisons with Line of Duty, Ed Cumming suggested that, unlike that show, with The Tower "there isn't much pure evil here, more opportunists and easy-life seekers". He also argued that, thanks to Loach's direction, The Tower was a tighter script—less "flabbiness"—than many of its genre. However, he was overall critical, arguing that Whelan is the only character to consistently hold the viewers' interest, and that, generally, the series could have "aimed a bit higher". The Guardians Barbara Ellen was also less enthusiastic, picking out what she considered an overuse of flashbacks adding unnecessary confusion to an already complex plot, combined with the shoehorning in of too many themes. She was more positive of the dialogue and portrayals, summing up saying "bring back the characters, please, but with a less chaotic story". Future Due to the fact that Post Mortem was the first of three books in a series—the others being Death Message and Gallowstree Lane—speculation mounted that the show would return to depict subsequent events, in which Collins and Adama's careers intersect again. Tahirah Sharif believed that there was plenty of material to allow for the series' expansion, and Emmett Scanlan has pointed out that the later books expand the characters also, particularly Bradshaw's.

excessive weight compared to other materials, such as aluminium. Spacecraft Stainless steel also has an application in spaceflight. The early Atlas rockets used stainless steel in their fuel tanks. The outer cladding of the modules and the Integrated Truss Structure of the International Space Station use stainless steel alloys. Components of the future Space Launch System and the structural shell of the SpaceX Starship will be the second and third rockets respectively to use stainless steel. Medicine Surgical tools and medical equipment are usually made of stainless steel, because of its durability and ability to be sterilized in an autoclave. In addition, surgical implants such as bone reinforcements and replacements (e.g. hip sockets and cranial plates) are made with special alloys formulated to resist corrosion, mechanical wear, and biological reactions in vivo. Stainless steel is used in a variety of applications in dentistry. It is common to use stainless steel in many instruments that need to be sterilized, such as needles, endodontic files in root canal therapy, metal posts in root canal-treated teeth, temporary crowns and crowns for deciduous teeth, and arch wires and brackets in orthodontics. Surgical stainless steel alloys (e.g., 316 low-carbon steel) were also used in some early dental implants. Energy Stainless steels are extensively used in all types of power stations, from nuclear to solar. Stainless steels are ideally suited as mechanical supports for power generation units when the permeation of gases or liquids are required, such as filters in cooling water or hot gas clean up or as structural supports in electrolytic power generation. Stainless steel is used in electrolysers (proton exchange membranes and solid oxide electrolysers being the most common) that convert electrical energy into hydrogen gas by water electrolysis. Conversely, stainless steel is used in fuel cells which perform the opposite reaction, combining hydrogen and oxygen to produce water and electrical energy. Culinary Stainless steel is often preferred for kitchen sinks because of its ruggedness, durability, heat resistance, and ease of cleaning. In better models, acoustic noise is controlled by applying resilient undercoating to dampen vibrations. The material is also used for cladding of surfaces such as appliances and backsplashes. Cookware and bakeware may be clad in stainless steels to enhance their cleanability and durability and to permit their use in induction cooking (this requires a magnetic grade of stainless steel, such as 432). Because stainless steel is a poor conductor of heat, it is often used as a thin surface cladding over a core of copper or aluminium, which conducts heat more readily. Cutlery is often made of stainless steel, for low corrosion, ease of cleaning, negligible toxicity, and ability to avoid flavoring the food by electrolytic activity. Jewelry Stainless steel is used for jewelry and watches, with 316L being the type commonly used. Oxidizing stainless steel briefly gives it radiant colors that can also be used for coloration effects. Valadium, stainless steel, and 12% nickel alloy is used to make class and military rings. Valadium is usually silver-toned but can be electro-plated to give it a gold-tone. The gold tone variety is known as Sun-lite Valadium. Other Valadium types of alloy are trade-named differently, with such names as "Siladium" and "White Lazon." Firearms Some firearms incorporate stainless steel components as an alternative to blued or parkerized steel. Some handgun models, such as the Smith & Wesson Model 60 and the Colt M1911 pistol, can be made entirely from stainless steel. This gives a high-luster finish similar in appearance to nickel plating. Unlike plating, the finish is not subject to flaking, peeling, wear-off from rubbing (as when repeatedly removed from a holster), or rust when scratched. 3D

(Wijk aan Zee, the Netherlands) Water Stainless steels have a long history of application in contact with water due to their excellent corrosion resistance. Applications include a range of conditions including plumbing, potable water and wastewater treatment, desalination, and brine treatment. Types 304 and 316 stainless steels are standard materials of construction in contact with water. However, with increasing chloride contents, higher alloyed stainless steels such as Type 2205 and super austenitic and super duplex stainless steels are used. Important considerations to achieve optimum corrosion performance are: the correct grade choice for the chloride content of the water; avoidance of crevices when possible by good design; adherence to good fabrication practices, particularly removing weld heat tint; prompt drainage after hydrotesting. The use of stainless steel piping has helped to reduce the losses of drinking water in Tokyo, Seoul, and Taipei. Pulp, paper, and biomass conversion Stainless steels are used extensively in the pulp and paper industry to avoid iron contamination of the product and because of their corrosion resistance to the various chemicals used in the papermaking process. For example, duplex stainless steels are used in digesters to convert wood chips into wood pulp. 6% Mo superaustenitics are used in the bleach plant and Type 316 is used extensively in the paper machine. Chemical and petrochemical processing Stainless steels are used extensively in the chemical and petrochemical industries for their corrosion resistance to aqueous, gaseous, and high-temperature environments, their mechanical properties at all temperatures, and occasionally for other special physical properties. Food and beverage Austenitic (300 series) stainless steel, particularly Types 304 and 316, is the material of choice for the food and beverage industry, though martensitic and ferritic (400 series) steels are also used. Stainless steels are advantageous because they do not affect the taste of the product, are easily cleaned and sterilized to prevent bacterial contamination of the food, and are durable. Within the food and beverage industry, stainless steel is extensively used in cookware, commercial food processing, commercial kitchens, brewing beer, winemaking, and meat processing. Acidic foods with high salt additions, such as tomato sauce, and highly salted condiments, such as soy sauce, may require higher-alloyed stainless steels such as 6% Mo superaustenitics to prevent pitting corrosion by chloride. Vehicles Automobiles The Allegheny Ludlum Corporation worked with Ford on various concept cars with stainless steel bodies from the 1930s through the 1970s to demonstrate the material's potential. The 1957 and 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham had a stainless steel roof. In 1981 and 1982, the DMC DeLorean production automobile used Type 304 stainless steel body panels over a glass-reinforced plastic monocoque. Intercity buses made by Motor Coach Industries are partially made of stainless steel. The aft body panel of the Porsche Cayman model (2-door coupe hatchback) is made of stainless steel. Due to the Cayman's many curves and angles, it was discovered during early body prototyping that conventional steel could not be formed without cracking. Thus, Porsche was forced to use stainless steel. The largest use of stainless steel in cars is the exhaust line. Environment protection requirements aimed at reducing pollution and noise for the entirety of a car's lifespan led to the use of ferritic stainless steels (typically AISI409/409Cb in North America, EN1.4511 and 1.4512 in Europe). They are used for collector, tubing, muffler, catalytic converter, tailpipe. Heat-resisting grades EN1.4913 or 1.4923 are used in parts of turbochargers, while other heat-resisting grades are used for exhaust gas recirculation and for inlet and exhaust valves. In addition, common rail injection systems and their injectors rely on stainless steels. Stainless steel has proved to be the best choice for miscellaneous applications, such as stiffeners for windshield wiper blades, balls for seat belt operation device in case of accident, springs, fasteners, etc. Some automotive manufacturers use stainless steel as decorative highlights in their vehicles. Light commuter trains Stainless steel is now used as one of the materials for tramlinks, together with aluminium alloys and carbon steel. Duplex grades tend to be preferred thanks to their corrosion resistance and higher strength, allowing a reduction of weight and a long life in maritime environments. Passenger rail cars Rail cars have commonly been manufactured using corrugated stainless steel panels for additional structural strength. This was particularly popular during the 1960s and 1970s but has since declined. One notable example was the early Pioneer Zephyr. Notable former manufacturers of stainless steel rolling stock included the Budd Company (USA), which has been licensed to Japan's Tokyu Car Corporation, and the Portuguese company Sorefame. Many railcars in the United States are still manufactured with stainless steel. In India, where rail infrastructure is developing, new stainless steel coaches in being put into service. South Africa is also commissioning stainless steel coaches. Aircraft Budd also built two airplanes, the Budd BB-1 Pioneer and the Budd RB-1 Conestoga, out of stainless steel tube and sheet. The first, which had fabric wing coverings, is on display at the Franklin Institute, being the longest continuous display of an aircraft ever, since 1934. The RB-2 was almost all stainless steel, save for the control surfaces. One survives at the Pima Air & Space Museum, adjacent to Davis–Monthan Air Force Base. The American Fleetwings Sea Bird amphibious aircraft of 1936 was also built using a spot-welded stainless steel hull. Due to its thermal stability, the Bristol Aeroplane Company built the all-stainless steel Bristol 188 high-speed research aircraft, which first flew in 1963. However, the practical problems encountered meant that later high-speed aircraft, such as the Concorde, employed aluminium alloys. The experimental Mach 3 American bomber, the XB70 Valkyrie, made extensive use of stainless steel in its external structure due to the

had admitted to poisoning two of his wives with strychnine so he could collect $5,000 in life insurance policies from each. According to his confessions, Roberts had given his first wife Aletha Ainsworth some poisoned ice cream circa August 1931, while she lay pregnant at a hospital in Jackson. The second killing occurred sometime in 1933, when he had given strychnine capsules to his second wife Etta McRaney after she had returned from hospital to their home in Collins, where the family lived at the time. For unclear reasons, Roberts refused to make written statements about these confessions but supposedly claimed they were true. Despite this, Roberts was never charged with either case, presumably due to lack of evidence. Trial, imprisonment and execution On November 21, a grand jury was selected for the upcoming murder trial. At one of the pre-trial hearings, Roberts' court-appointed attorney, Forrest Jackson, claimed that his client had told him that he had made the confession when he was "tired", a notion supported by his daughter, who believed that he was innocent. As a result, Jackson requested that the confession be thrown out on the grounds that Roberts was questioned without a warrant, but his request was denied by Justice Harold Cox, who ruled that the admission could be used at the trial. On December 11, 1949, Roberts was found guilty and sentenced to death, but appeared seemingly unmoved by when the verdict was announced. At the time of the trial, the press compared him with another defendant in an unrelated murder case, focusing on Roberts' lackluster education and low IQ of 73, stating that he represented one of two extremes of a murder defendant. Following an appeal lodged by his lawyers to the Supreme Court of Mississippi, Roberts' initial execution date was stayed. In the end, however, the verdict was upheld, and Roberts' death sentence was finalized. On March 17, 1951, several days before his scheduled execution, Roberts attempted suicide by slashing his wrists with a razor blade he had hidden in his shoe. The injuries proved to be superficial, and from then on, he was kept in a straitjacket to prevent him from further harming himself. Four days later, on March 21, he was executed at a prison in Jackson in the state's portable electric chair. Before the procedure had begun, he had spent the day mostly praying with the prison chaplain and other inmates and repeatedly reiterated that he was innocent. As he was strapped to the chair, his final words were, "Well now, bye bye." His execution came as a huge disappointment for the surviving family members, who hoped for a last-minute reprieve from Governor Fielding L. Wright, which never came.

the hospital, Roberts was determined to be sane and released, with the charges against him dropped altogether. On July 16, 1949, the elder of Roberts' granddaughters, 5-year-old Mary Louise Hill, was admitted to St. Dominic's Hospital due to multiple convulsions, to which she succumbed at the hospital. For unclear reasons, no post-mortem was done on the body, and she was quickly buried at the family plot in Hopewell. Suspicions were raised when the younger granddaughter, 4-year-old Shirley, was also admitted to the hospital in October, suffering from similar symptoms. While she managed to recover, an analysis of her urine determined that she had been poisoned with arsenic. This information was passed on to the police, who further discovered that both girls had life insurance policies issued on them in which their grandfather was the beneficiary. Due to these circumstances, Roberts was arrested on suspicion of murder, but he initially denied responsibility, claiming that he had used half of the policies to pay for Shirley's hospital bills. These claims were disproven after a check from the hospital, and after chemists from the Mississippi State University reported that an examination of five arsenic bottles determined that some of the arsenic had mysteriously vanished, Roberts was charged with capital murder and attempted murder. Confessions Five days after his arrest, Roberts signed a written statement to Police Chief Joel Holden, in which he confessed that he had poisoned Mary and Shirley in order to collect the money from the life insurance policies, implicating a woman named Ruby Pace as his supposed accomplice. Following this revelation, the local coroners were tasked with exhuming Mary's body to test whether she had traces of arsenic, but the probe was temporarily suspended until they could produce a proper report on the results. In the meantime, attorney Julian Alexander claimed to the press that Roberts had admitted to poisoning two of his wives with strychnine so he could collect $5,000 in life insurance policies from each. According to his confessions, Roberts had given his first wife Aletha Ainsworth some poisoned ice cream circa August 1931, while she lay pregnant at a hospital in Jackson. The second killing occurred sometime in 1933, when he had given strychnine capsules to his second wife Etta McRaney after she had returned from hospital to their home in Collins, where the family lived at the time.

mouse aiming to controllers, while addressing shortcomings of traditional first-person shooter controller schemes. Flick Stick was designed by game developer Julian "Jibb" Smart in 2018. In 2020, it was integrated into Steam as an option within Steam Input. Multiple commercial games, such as Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Fortnite, have since added Flick Stick as an alternate control scheme. Design In a traditional first-person shooter controller scheme, the right analog stick is used to steer the player character's view in the direction the stick is tilted. A "sensitivity" slider determines the speed the player turns when the analog stick is held. As the player can't turn faster than the highest sensitivity value allows, controller aiming with a traditional control scheme is generally slower than aiming with a mouse. In a typical Flick Stick control scheme, the player's view snaps to the direction the right analog stick is held, with "up" representing the player's current view (no change). Tilting the stick left will "flick" the player's view 90 degrees to the left, and tilting the stick down will turn the player a full 180 degrees. Once the analog stick is held down, it can be rotated along the gate to turn the player in tandem. The analog stick only affects the horizontal view axis, and all vertical aiming is performed through the controller's gyroscope by tilting the controller in the desired direction. The right analog stick is intended to be

brigade was formed between August and October 1942 in the Central Asian Military District as a standard rifle brigade. It remained in the region until December when it was shipped north and west to Astrakhan on the Caspian Sea and assigned to 28th Army in Southern Front. This Army was responsible for screening a vast territory between the lower Volga and the Caucasus against the meagre forces the Axis had committed to this distant region. After the German defeat at Stalingrad the brigade advanced with its Army through the Caucasus steppe to the eastern Donbas by February 1943, facing the defenses along the Mius-Front. In April it was moved to 5th Shock in the same Front and in preparation for the summer offensive it was reinforced to the rifle division shtat of December 10, 1942. Col. Ivan Ivanovich Blazhevich (born Ionas Ionasovich Blazhevichus, Polish by nationality), who had previously served as chief of staff of the 96th Guards Rifle Division, was appointed to command the day the division formed. Its order of battle remained almost identical to that of the 1st Formation, except the 511th Self-Propelled Artillery Battalion (SU-76s) would be added before the Manchurian campaign, the 595th Signal Battalion would be replaced by the 1455th Signal Company, the field bakery was renumbered as the 385th, and the field postal station and field office of the state bank were also renumbered. Into Ukraine Southern Front launched its first effort to break the Mius line on July 17 as the Battle of Kursk was winding down, but after a great deal of costly back-and-forth fighting finally suspended the effort on July 27, although German counterattacks would continue until August 2. A renewed offensive began on August 13 and although Southwestern Front to the north was initially unable to penetrate the front of 1st Panzer Army south of Izium, Southern Front broke through the reconstructed German 6th Army beginning on August 18. 5th Shock Army, with an overwhelming concentration, especially of artillery, on a narrow front, penetrated 7km behind the front through a 3km-wide gap. Under the light of a full moon the Army spread out north and south behind the 6th Army's front. German efforts to close the gap on August 20 made some initial progress but failed due to a strong Soviet reaction. By August 23 1st Panzer Army was also in trouble with its army corps south of Izium reduced to a combat strength of just 5,800 men and unable to hold a continuous line. On the 31st Field Marshal E. von Manstein was finally authorized to withdraw both armies to the Kalmius River, effectively beginning the race to the Dniepr. Later in August the 221st was transferred to the 44th Army, still in Southern Front. At the time this Army had only the 221st, the 130th Rifle Division, and the 1st Guards Fortified Region under command as infantry forces. As the advance continued the division was awarded its first honorific:Later in the month it returned to 28th Army, still in Southern Front (as of October 20, 4th Ukrainian Front.) During October it was subordinated to 37th Rifle Corps in the same Army. In November, following the Melitopol operation which isolated the Axis forces in the Crimea, 37th Corps was briefly reassigned to 3rd Guards Army but on December 1 the division was moved to the Reserve of the Supreme High Command and began moving north. While in the Reserve it was assigned to 67th Rifle Corps in 69th Army, but when it returned to the front in that Corps on January 29, 1944 it was assigned to 38th Army in 1st Ukrainian Front. Colonel Blazhevich had left command of the division to his deputy commander, Col. Vladislav Nikolaevich Kushnarenko on December 26; the former would go on to command the 99th Guards Rifle Division and be promoted to the rank of major general on November 2, 1944 but was mortally wounded by a land mine explosion in Austria on April 23, 1945, five days before becoming a Hero of the Soviet Union. Kushnarenko would lead the 221st, apart from one brief break, for the duration of the war, reaching the rank of major general on September 13, 1944. Proskurov-Chernivtsi Offensive By the end of January the lines between 1st Ukrainian Front and 1st Panzer Army had stabilized north of Vinnytsia. The offensive was renewed on March 4. 38th Army was on the left (south) flank of the Front and its initial objective was Vinnytsia, after which it was to continued to advance southwest toward Zhmerynka, which had been designated as a Festung (fortress) by Hitler. The former was liberated on March 20 and three days later the 221st was recognized for its role with the award of the Order of the Red Banner. During the late March fighting around the encircled 1st Panzer Army the division was moved to the 101st Rifle Corps, still in 38th Army and several weeks later was reassigned to the 94th Rifle Corps in 60th Army. On June 4 the division again entered the Reserve of the Supreme High Command and began moving northward. Vyborg–Petrozavodsk Offensive The 221st, along with the rest of 94th Corps, arrived in eastern Karelia on June 15 and was immediately assigned to the 7th Army in Karelian Front. Leningrad Front had begun its offensive against Finland on the Karelian Isthmus on June 10 and 7th Army was set to begin its own Svir–Petrozavodsk offensive on June 20 on the Olonets sector. Given its unfamiliarity with the terrain it faced the Corps was used in a follow-on role. The Finnish V and VI Corps evacuated a large bridgehead south of the Svir on June 18, evading the first blows of the Soviet operation and thereafter engaging in a stubborn retreat against an aggressive pursuit; Petrozavodsk fell on June 30 and by July 10 the Finnish forces were in the 'U'-line where the offensive paused. Later in July the 94th Corps was again reassigned, now to 21st Army in Leningrad Front, located on the Karelian Isthmus. By this time the Soviets had gained most of its objectives in the war against Finland and by the middle of the month was removing its more powerful units, especially armor, for re-employment elsewhere. Although some fighting continued until the September 19 armistice, the Red Army was largely on the defensive. On October 1 most of 21st Army, including the 221st and its Corps, was removed to the Reserve of the Supreme High Command, where it remained into November. East Prussian Offensives After a brief assignment to 3rd Belorussian Front in late November the 21st Army returned to the Reserve of the Supreme High Command by December 1. Later that month 94th Corps returned to that Front where it joined the 39th Army; the 221st would remain in this Army into peacetime. At the outset of the final offensive into

The division went into action at 1500 hours on September 5. It faced: 24th Army attacked well dug-in elements of VIII Army Corps west of Kuzmichi; the 221st, flanked by the 173rd and 207th Rifle Divisions, drove in the German security line and reached the forward edge of the main defense along the northwestern slopes of Hill 93.1the village 4km southwest of Samofalovkathe northwestern slopes of Hill 13.4, which was a marginal return for the commitment of three fresh divisions. This offensive, which had begun two days earlier, was utterly stalled, although its mentor, Army Gen. G. K. Zhukov, would not shut it down until September 13. Second Kotluban Offensive The second Kotluban offensive was set to begin on September 18. The Front commander, Col. Gen. A. I. Yeryomenko, chose a 17km-wide attack sector from 564 km Station to the Kotluban Balka, in part because it was defended by German infantry, rather than the mobile troops which had defeated his earlier attempt. This was the sector held by 24th Army which he recognized as already weakened to the point that it could not spearhead the effort by itself. As one example, on September 15 the 221st was noted as already reduced to 5,724 men. Yeryomenko therefore regrouped his forces and the division now became part of 1st Guards Army, although remaining on much the same sector as before. Supported by 340 tanks, the Army was to break through the defense at the junction of VIII Corps and XIV Panzer Corps and exploit southward along the BorodkinNadezhda axis to link up with the isolated 62nd Army in the Gumrak region. The Army commander, Maj. Gen. K. S. Moskalenko, chose to hold the 221st and 207th Divisions, along with 4th Tank Corps, in his second echelon in order to reinforce success and fend off counterattacks during the advance. The offensive began at 0700 hours following a 90-minute artillery preparation that was largely ineffective due to the depth of the defense. The first echelon managed to gain up to 3km in places but then ground to a halt in front of the main defense lines as German reserves began arriving. At 1400 Moskalenko ordered his second echelon into the fight to maintain the momentum of the assault but by the time it arrived it was too late to halt the German counterattacks, backed by up to 50 tanks, that were sweeping the 308th and 316th Rifle Divisions from the slopes and crest of Hill 154.2 and effectively routing them. In the intense fighting of September 18 and 19 1st Guards Army suffered 36,000 casualties from its initial 123,000 personnel. After a pause for reinforcements and a minor shift in objectives Moskalenko was ordered to renew the offensive on September 23. The 221st and 207th Divisions formed the first echelon of a shock group that was to assault the defenses of 60th Motorized Division's 9th Machine Gun Battalion at 564 km Station. This position changed hands three times but was in the division's hands by the end of September 24. Despite this minor success the overall offensive had ground to a halt two days later, primarily due to German air strikes and local counterattacks. Yeryomenko persisted in ordering his armies to attack as late as October 4, but this achieved little except attrition and a distraction for the German command from the fighting in the city itself. By this time the 1st Guards Army had been transferred to the new Don Front. Later in October the 221st returned to 24th Army in the same Front, but on November 1 it was officially disbanded due to excessive losses. Colonel Bunyashin went on to command the 84th Rifle Division for most of the remainder of the war, being promoted to the rank of major general on September 1, 1943, and after nearly ten years in the training establishment ended his career as a military attaché to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam from 1954 to 1958. 2nd Formation A new 221st was formed in 5th Shock Army of Southern Front on June 29, 1943 based on the 2nd formation of the 79th Rifle Brigade. 79th Rifle Brigade This brigade was formed between August and October 1942 in the Central Asian Military District as a standard rifle brigade. It remained in the region until December when it was shipped north and west to Astrakhan on the Caspian Sea and assigned to 28th Army in Southern Front. This Army was responsible for screening a vast territory between the lower Volga and the Caucasus against the meagre forces the Axis had committed to this distant region. After the German defeat at Stalingrad the brigade advanced with its Army through the Caucasus steppe to the eastern Donbas by February 1943, facing the defenses along the Mius-Front. In April it was moved to 5th Shock in the same Front and in preparation for the summer offensive it was reinforced to the rifle division shtat of December 10, 1942. Col. Ivan Ivanovich Blazhevich (born Ionas Ionasovich Blazhevichus, Polish by nationality), who had previously served as chief of staff of the 96th Guards Rifle Division, was appointed to command the day the division formed. Its order of battle remained almost identical to that of the 1st Formation, except the 511th Self-Propelled Artillery Battalion (SU-76s) would be added before the Manchurian campaign, the 595th Signal Battalion would be replaced by the 1455th Signal Company, the field bakery was renumbered as the 385th, and the field postal station and field office of the state bank were also renumbered.
