"1977 Allentown mayoral election"

"Introduction",
"The '''1977 Allentown mayoral election''' was a municipal election in Allentown, the third largest city in Pennsylvania.",
"Incumbent Democratic mayor Joseph S. Daddona was unexpectedly defeated by just 121 votes by Republican political outsider and air-force Colonel Frank Fischl."
],
[
"Campaign",
"===Democrats===Since Joseph S. Daddona was the incumbent mayor, he saw no opposition in the Democratic primary, instead he held a debate with the Democratic city council candidates hosted by WLVT-TV and sponsored by the Leagues of Women Voters of Allentown, Bethlehem and Easton.",
"At which the six candidates, Daddona, Cramsey, Kercher, Howells, Martin, and Bogert shared their opinions on local issues, such as garbage and trash collection, housing for the elderly, reducing the crime rate, and promoting efforts to preserve South Mountain.===Republicans===Frank R. Fischl Jr. graduated from Allentown High School in 1945, served two years in the U.S. Army before going to West Point where he played Football as the starting halfback under legendary coach Vince Lombardi, and graduated in 1951.Afterwards Fischl served in the U.S. Air force during both the Korean War and Vietnam War, earning over a dozen decorations including the Silver Star for a sortie October 18, 1966 before retiring in 1977 at the rank of Colonel.",
"During the primaries, Fischl centered his campaign on drawing more small businesses to city center by slashing taxes and cutting red tape, which in turn would create more businesses that would be taxed, mitigating the loss in profits from the tax cuts, and increasing the citizen's quality of life.===General election===Fischl would beat incumbent mayor Daddona.",
"Unofficial results garnered 13,446 votes to Fischl while Daddona earned 13,307, a margin of just 139, due to the close nature of the race, a recount was held with Fischl maintain the lead, but the margin narrowing to just 121.During the election, one Dominic Falcone loudly claimed to have made a $1,500 donation to Daddona's campaign, which would have violated contribution limits and would have resulted in legal troubles for Daddona.",
"Although the claims would be disproved after the election, due to the close nature of this race, pundits have considered this to be the deciding factor."
],
[
"Legacy",
"Fischl would refuse to seek re-election to a second term, stepping down as mayor in 1982.Fischl would clash frequently with the city's Republican establishment, basing his tenure on keeping taxes as low as possible.",
"He slashed taxes for local small businesses, however, after a heated series of exchanges over increasing property tax to cover the operating cost of the city's ambulances, the city council bypassed Fischl to pass the increase, with Fischl announcing his refusal to a second term shortly after.",
"He would go on to be named to the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission in 1984.In 1991 he was named to the National Football Foundation's Lehigh Valley Chapter's hall of fame.",
"Fischl died on October 12, 2016, at the age of 89."

"Elizabeth Carey in 1656, after an original by Louise Hollandine of the Palatinate'''Elizabeth, Viscountess Mordaunt''' (''née'' '''Carey''', 1632/3 – 1679) was an English royalist conspirator and diarist.",
"She is credited with contriving the acquittal of her husband, the zealous but unsuccessful conspirator John Mordaunt, for treason in 1658, and she acted as an intelligencer for the royalist network in 1659.A lifelong friend of writer John Evelyn, she kept a private devotional diary which was published in 1856."
],
[
"Early life",
"She was born in 1632/3, one of three daughters of Thomas Carey, gentleman of the bedchamber to Charles I, and his wife Margaret, ''née'' Smith.",
"Her father died in 1634.When she was fifteen or sixteen and staying in Paris, she met Mary Browne and the writer John Evelyn, who would soon marry Mary.",
"The three of them remained lifelong friends.",
"Evelyn described the young Elizabeth as well-read and pious, with many admirers: she 'would entertaine them all, & was…full of a thousand pretty impertinences.",
"'Elizabeth’s 'breezy, phonetically spelled letters' to Evelyn show that she spent time in London and with her grandmother in Winchester in 1655.In 1656, after a first matchmaking attempt failed, Evelyn suggested that she marry John Mordaunt, whom he had met on his travels in Italy.Elizabeth’s mother was staying at the court of Elizabeth Stuart, Queen of Bohemia at the Hague.",
"During one of her stays with her mother in 1656/7, Louise, Princess Palatine, the Queen’s daughter, painted her in the character of the nymph Pomona and another portrait, which was given to Mary Evelyn at her request."
],
[
"Royalist conspirator",
"In May 1657 Elizabeth married John Mordaunt, and quickly aligned herself with his efforts to re-establish Charles II as king.",
"Fellow royalist Edward Hyde described her shortly after the marriage as 'a young beautiful lady, of a very loyal spirit, and notable vivacity of wit and humour, who concurred with him John in all honourable dedication of himself.'",
"Their first son, Charles, was born early the next year.=== Treason trial ===A major test of her commitment came in April 1658 when John was arrested for conspiring to raise troops for Charles II as part of the future king’s 'Great Trust and Commission.'",
"When he was tried on 1 June by a special commission of forty, Elizabeth contrived to have him reprieved by a slender margin.",
"She bribed some of the judges to get information on how they would conduct the trial, and managed to have advice handed to her husband by note.",
"She persuaded one of the witnesses, Morley/Mallory, to escape, by letting him know that his promise of indemnity if he testified against John had been false.",
"Allegedly, he was provided with money and a disguise by the Mordaunts' maid to help his escape.",
"When another witness fell ill, there were nineteen votes for conviction and nineteen for acquittal: the president of the court, who owed a favour to John’s mother, cast his deciding vote in John’s favour.",
"John had a further period of imprisonment before his release, and Elizabeth chose to share it with him, after having her clothes and hair searched for papers.=== Intelligencer in Calais ===In July 1659, John’s arrest was ordered for a second attempt at arranging an uprising, and Elizabeth also 'intended to escape, being much sought for by the rebels in England.'",
"He escaped to France in September and Elizabeth, whose second child had been born in April that year, joined him a month later.",
"Remaining in Calais alone, she began the main phase of her role as a Royalist intelligencer, passing encrypted letters between her husband, the king, and other conspirators, with the support of the Queen of Bohemia.",
"Her relatives acknowledged how much she enjoyed the danger of it:since you have scaped the danger, cannot say I am very sorrie you have been in some, for in the age we live, tis not easie to sever suffering from the honour of doing one’s dutie; And I know you prefere that so much before the lazy quiet most here place their happinesse in.Her diary for this period records occasional thanks to God for deliverance from danger and asks forgiveness for dissembling and lying."
],
[
"Post-Restoration life",
"After the Restoration of Charles II in 1660, John was made viscount and Constable of Windsor.",
"The Mordaunts had a residence at Windsor and another at Parsons Green, Fulham, which survived the Great Fire of London.",
"Elizabeth had to deal with John’s continued troubles, including his impeachment after an accusation of false imprisonment and attempted rape in 1666 and a property dispute with his brother in 1672–4.In July 1674 their house and goods were seized, and she was only able to pay the household debts when she received delayed payments from the Exchequer after John’s death in 1675.Throughout her life she kept up a pattern of charitable giving, usually on the anniversaries of events she was thankful for, like her husband’s acquittal for treason.",
"She was assisted in these in her widowhood by Evelyn.She died on a convalescent visit to France in 1679.Her diary records the births of eleven children in total, including Charles and Harry Mordaunt."
],
[
"Diary",
"From 1656/7 she kept a private devotional diary, where she recorded her reactions to everything from disagreements with her mother-in-law and concern over her children’s illnesses, to her feelings on the Restoration of the Monarchy.",
"The diary also contains poetry, such as a verse on the birth of her son Louis.",
"It was published as ''The Priuate Diaree of Elizabeth, Viscountess Mordaunt'' in 1856."

[
"Introduction",
"'''John Edwin Cook''' (1830–1859) was one of John Brown's raiders who participated fully in his raid on Harpers FerryHe was the youngest of seven children of Nathaniel and Mary Cook, of Haddam, Connecticut.",
"He attended classes at the Brainerd Academy and taught Sunday school at the Haddam Congregational Church.",
"He began studying law at Yale College, but did not graduate.",
"He worked as a law clerk for an attorney in Brooklyn, but did not stay long.According to Steven Lubet, his contact with the abolitionist movement began with his attending sermons of Henry Ward Beecher, a celebrity and brother of Harriet Beecher Stowe, based on Brooklyn.",
"When the fighting of the Bleeding Kansas period broke out in the 1850's, he abandoned his law career and moved to Kansas.",
"He parteicipated in a lot of combat, but was perceived as \"brave, conceited, and boastful.",
"\"Cook met John Brown in Kansas in 1856.He joined free-state militias, spent a winter in Lawrence and while he did not participate in the Pottawatomie massacre, he was with Brown on other expeditions.",
"Brown saw that Cook could be exceptionally useful.At Brown's suggestion, Cook went to Harpers Ferry in June 1858, renting a boardinghouse room under his own name.",
"He worked as a lock tender, schoolteacher, private writing tutor, and peddlar.",
"He impregnated his landlady's daughter, marrying her before the child was born.",
"According to Lubet, he was \"an honorable husband and a devoted father.\"",
"He was Brown's scout, especially of the armory and arsenal.",
"He was also the only one of Brown's men who had a wife and child.Once the raid started, Cook's job was to go to Beall-Air, there to take its owner, Lewis Washington, George Washington's great-grandnephew, captive and set free his slaves.",
"(Cook, who had lived in Harpers Ferry for about a year, was the only one who knew how to navigate the roads at night, and he had also met Washington, His party then proceeded to do the same with a neighbor, and then set out on the return to Harpers Ferry.",
"After a brief rest there he was sent to Maryland to rescue another lot of slaves, but by then it was clear the raid was failing and there was no reason for him to follow his instructions.Cook and five others—Tidd, Osborne Anderson, Owen Brown, Barclay Coppock, and Merriam—attempted to escape northwards into Maryland and Pennsylvana.",
"Cook was captured—he was briefly America's most wanted man, and a large reward had been announced, which was later awarded—and taken to Charles Town to face charges.",
"He faced the same charges John Brown did: murder, inciting a slave insurrection, and treason against the Commonwealth of Virginia."
],
[
"Cook betrays his colleagues",
"Cook has a posthumous bad reputation because, alone among Brown's raiders, he gave a complete confession, naming all names involved, including those that were still at large.",
"His brother-in-law, the pro-slavery Governor of Indiana Ashbel Willard, came to Charles Town and arranged to have Cook's confession printed, in the hope of obtaining mercy from the court, or a pardon from the Governor.",
"The strategy was not successful and Cook was tried, convicted of all charges except treason, and executed.",
"His confession accomplished nothing in terms of obtaining any mercy from the court.No church in Brooklyn, where his body was sent, would allow a funeral to be held, so it was held in a private house."

"Demise and revival of compulsory figures"
],
[
"Introduction",
"Sonja Morgenstern from Germany skates a compulsory figure, 1971'''The demise and revival of compulsory figures''' occurred, respectively, in 1990, when the International Skating Union (ISU) removed compulsory figures from international single skating competitions, and beginning in 2015, when the first competition focusing entirely on figures took place.",
"Compulsory figures, which is defined as the \"circular patterns which skaters trace on the ice to demonstrate skill in placing clean turns evenly on round circles\", dominated figure skating for the first 50 years of the sport, although they progressively declined in importance.",
"Skaters would train for hours to learn and execute them well, and competing and judging figures would often take up to eight hours during competitions.",
"Judging scandals and the broadcasts of figure skating on television have been cited as the reason for the decline of figures.",
"The U.S. was the last country to include figures in their competitions, until 1999.The elimination of figures resulted in the increase of focus on the free skating segment and in the domination of younger girls in the sport.",
"Most skaters stopped training with figures, although many coaches continued to teach figures and skaters continued to practice them because figures taught basic skating skills and gave skaters an advantage in developing alignment, core strength, body control, and discipline.A revival of compulsory figures began in 2015, however, when the first World Figure Championship (renamed to the World Figure and Fancy Skating Championships in 2017) occurred in Lake Placid, New York.",
"By 2023, nine championships had taken place.",

"Demise of compulsory figures",
"Scott Hamilton competing in compulsory figures at the 1980 Olympics|leftCompulsory figures (or school figures) were formerly a segment of figure skating, and gave the sport its name.",
"They are the \"circular patterns which skaters trace on the ice to demonstrate skill in placing clean turns evenly on round circles\".",
"For approximately the first 50 years of figure skating as a sport, until 1947, compulsory figures made up 60 percent of the total score at most competitions around the world.",
"These figures continued to dominate the sport, although they steadily declined in importance, until the International Skating Union (ISU) voted to discontinue them as a part of competitions in 1990.Learning and training in compulsory figures instilled discipline and control; some in the figure skating community considered them necessary to teach skaters basic skills.",
"Skaters would train for hours to learn and execute them well, and competing and judging figures would often take up to eight hours during competitions.Compulsory figures began to be progressively devalued in 1967 when the values of both compulsory figures and free skating were changed to 50 percent.",
"In 1973, the number of figures was decreased from six to three, and their overall weight was decreased to 30 percent, to make room for the introduction of the short program.",
"Hines states that the decrease in the importance of compulsory figures was due to \"the unbalanced skating\" of women skaters such as Beatrix \"Trixi\" Schuba of Austria, whom Hines called \"the last great practitioner of compulsory figures\".",
"Schuba won several medals in the late 1960s and early 1970s based upon the strength of her figures, despite her lower results in free skating.",
"As Hines states, \"she could not be defeated under a scoring system that gave preference to figures\".",
"Hines also credited television coverage of figure skating, which helped to increase the popularity of the sport, with the eventual demise of compulsory figures.",
"Television audiences were not exposed to the compulsory figures segments of competitions, so they did not understand why the results contradicted what they saw in free skating segments.",
"Sports writer Sandra Loosemore agreed, stating that television was \"the driving force\" for the rule changes regarding figures in 1968 and the years following.",
"Figures were not broadcast on television because they were not exciting enough, so viewers \"found it incomprehensible that competitions could be won by skaters who had built up huge leads in the figures portion of the event but gave mediocre performances in the part of the competition shown on TV\".",
"In 1973, the ISU lowered the value of compulsory figures from 50% to 40% and decreased the number of figures skaters were required to perform.",
"In 1977, the number of types of figures skaters could choose to perform decreased even more, down to six figures per competition.Compulsory figures judging (Berlin, Germany, in 1964)Loosemore attributed the decrease in the importance of figures to a \"lack of public accountability\" from the judges of international competitions and other discrepancies in judging, which Loosemore called \"dirty judging\".",
"She speculated that television coverage of the sport, which brought more attention to how it was judged, was also responsible and \"since figures competitions weren't televised, fans could not be certain that the judges were on the level\".",
"Loosemore also speculated that \"the relative scarcity of rinks and practice ice for figures in Europe as compared to North America\" ultimately made the difference in the removal of figures from competitions.",
"Kestnbaum agreed, stating that the elimination of figures was motivated by finances, countries with an affluent middle class or government-supported training for athletes having more of a competitive advantage over less affluent and smaller countries with fewer ice rinks and resources to spend the time necessary to train for proficiency in figures.",
"By the late 1970s and into the 1980s, there were discussions about eliminating them from international competitions.In 1988, the ISU voted to remove compulsory figures from international single skating competitions, for both men and women, starting in the 1990–1991 season.",
"Louise Radnofsky of ''The Wall Street Journal'' called the decision \"a crowd-pleasing change\".Of 31 voting national associations, only the U.S., Canada, Britain, and New Zealand voted against the decision.",
"The last two seasons that compulsory figures were competed at an international competition were in 1989 and 1990; only two figures were skated and they were worth only 20 percent of the competitors' overall scores.",
"Željka Čižmešija from Yugoslavia skated the last compulsory figure in international competition, at the World Championships in Halifax, Nova Scotia, on 7 March 1990.The U.S. created a separate track for figures instead of immediately eliminating them as most other countries did and was the last skating federation to include figures at its national championships, at the 1999 U.S.",
"Figure Skating Championships.",
"Its governing council, due to dwindling participation in figures since the ISU ended them in international competitions, finally voted to end them, even at the lower levels of its competitions and for their proficiency tests, in the summer of 1997.Canada also voted to end figures for their proficiency tests in 1997.According to Loosemore, the U.S.' decision to replace the remaining figure proficiency test requirements for competition eligibility in the mid-1990s with moves in the field to test skating proficiency \"killed figures as a separate competition discipline\".",
"Sports writer Randy Harvey of the ''Los Angeles Times'' predicted that the free skate would become the focus in international competitions.",
"Hines, quoting Italian coach Carlo Fassi, predicted in 2006 that the elimination of figures would result in younger girls dominating the sport, a statement Hines called \"prophetic\".According to Loosemore, after figures were no longer required, most skaters stopped doing them, resulting in rinks cutting back on the amount of time they offered to skaters who wanted to continue to practice them and a reduction in the number of judges capable of scoring them.",
"Despite the apparent demise of compulsory figures from figure skating, coaches continued to teach figures and skaters continued to practice them because figures gave skaters an advantage in developing alignment, core strength, body control, and discipline.",
"Proponents stated that figures taught basic skating skills, insisting that if skaters did not become proficient in figures, they would not be able to perform well-done free skating programs.",
"American champion and figure skating writer John Misha Petkevich disagrees, stating that the skills needed for proficiency in figures were different than what was needed for free skating, and that the turns and edges learned in figures could be learned in free skating as easily and efficiently."

"Assistant referees were the only ones who observed skaters as they completed their figures and tracings for errors such as falls or foot touch downs.",
"Penalties were recorded before the judging, which was done blind, after the skaters left the ice and without the judges knowing which competitor executed which figure.",

"The competitors skated on black ice, the original color of outdoor ice rinks, before skating moved indoors and surfaces were painted white beneath the ice.",
"According to U.S.",
"Figure Skating, black ice allows spectators and judges to better analyze the figures skaters made.",

"Meager, a professional figure skating champion, in 1895.In 2020, the ''Lake Placid News'' reported that figures was the least affected by the COVID-19 pandemic because the WFSS conducted online seminars taught by 1994 Olympian and figures expert, Karen Courtland Kelly, who was the first female Olympian to teach figures and fancy skating, and World Fancy Skating champion Sarah Jo Damron-Brown.",
"Kelly, who founded WFSS and organized its figures championships, has been credited with revitalizing figures.",
"Kelly, who compared to revitalizing figures to preserving a language because the \"knowledge was literally going extinct\", also commentated live-streamed broadcasts of the competitions.",
"The ''Press-Republican'', a local newspaper in Plattsburgh, reported the 2021 competition's unofficial results: Heather Zarisky of the U.S. came in first place in the women's event and Shepard Clark, also from the U.S., won the men's event.",
"Zarisky's total was 57 points, while Anne Bennett came in second place with 110 points and Meghan Germain came in third place with 137 points.",
"Clark's total was 50 points; Marc Fenczak came in second place with 96 points and Matthew Snyder came in third place with 159 points.",
"Zarisky joked later on that figures was \"the safest sport in terms of social distancing because we are separated by our quadrants\".By 2020, the event had gotten support from skaters like Dick Button, Janet Lynn, Dorothy Hamill, and Trixi Schuba, and the WFS began hosting workshops for skaters and coaches.",
"At the end of 2020, the Swedish Cross-cut figure was skated for the first time in 100 years at one of WFS' workshops and was confirmed by Paul Wylie, the 1992 U.S. Olympic silver medalist and a director of the Olympic Regional Development Authority.",

"1961 Batmalai raid"
],
[
"Introduction",
"__NOTOC__The '''1961 Raid of Batmalai''' was a bombing mission carried out by the Pakistani air force in the Batmalai district of Bajaur in March 1961, which was executed against the insurgents who were equipped with weapons and ammunition and also received funding from Afghanistan.",
"The bombing is part of the Bajaur Campaign in September 1960–September 1961, which saw the beginning of the Bajaur Campaign, which was a large-scale war between Afghanistan and Pakistan in Pakistan's federally administered tribal areas, mainly in and around Bajaur District.",
"The Afghan invasion, however, came to an end as a result of airstrikes by Pakistan in the Kunar Province of Afghanistan."
],
[
"Background",
"Afghanistan refused to acknowledge the Durand Line, which marks the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan and which Pakistan acquired from British India.",
"Relationships between the two nations soured as a result of these substantial, illegal territorial claims over the western regions of Pakistan, which roughly correspond with the provinces of Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as of today.",
"Afghanistan began supporting proxies and starting frequent border skirmishes with Pakistan."
],
[
"Detail",
"Prime Minister Daoud, who had long been a strong advocate of “Pushtunistan,” twice sent several thousand troops into the Bajaur region based on false intelligence reports about the consequences of local tribal clashes.",
"In late September 1960, Afghan irregulars and Army troops disguised as tribesmen stormed the Bajaur but were repelled by the Bajaur Pushtun, who, despite their frequent clashes with each other, resented outside interference, whether it came from Pakistan or Afghanistan.In May 1961, another large-scale assault took place, this time by regular Afghan troops (this time disguised as tribesmen).",
"This attack took place after the Nawab of Dir, with the help of his son (Khan of Jandol), persuaded the Afghan pashtuns to join them in their battle against the Khan of Khar.",
"According to sources, before the Afghan lashkar crossed the border, they received a call from their officers, who assured them that they would all meet in Malakand.The Afghans advanced quickly towards Shahi, Miskanai (the capital of Jandol Khan), and Sangpura.",
"That time, the tribesmen, together with the newly formed Bajaur Scouts (a military unit recruited locally but under the command of Pakistani officers posted to the Border Force), encountered Afghans who fought well during the night but were threatened by daylight attacks from American-born F-86 bomber pilots used by the Pakistan Air Force during 1961.Afghanistan provided weapons and ammunition to proxies under the leadership of Pacha Gul, inciting an uprising in the Batmalai district of Bajaur.",
"Pacha Gul was advised to go before an aerial counteroffensive would be triggered for serving as an agent for Afghanistan and providing resources, cash, and arms to the bajaur tribesmen.",
"Later on, the PAF aerial bombardment in the Bajaur District successfully destroyed the ammunition stored in Bataimala.",
"As a result, an uprising was avoided."
],
[
"Further events",
"After this event, in an attempt to conquer the area, Royal Afghan Army forces and thousands of Pashtun tribesmen from Afghanistan crossed the highly porous Pakistan-Afghanistan border and entered the semi-autonomous Bajaur Agency of Pakistan.",
"Additionally, Afghanistan stationed thousands of soldiers along the Pakistani border during this time, along with tanks and artillery, and often attacked locally stationed soldiers from mountainous positions.In order to aid the Pakistani forces and the local Pashtun tribesmen in their battle against the Afghan infiltrators, the Pakistan Air Force dispatched F-86 Sabre aircraft.",
"Additionally, the F-86 Sabre jets carried out bombing missions against locations held by the Royal Afghan Army in Kunar, Afghanistan, forcing the Afghan forces to retreat to the border with Pakistan."

[
"History",
"This station on the ''Vilafranca line'' and the ''Vilanova line'' entered service on April 24, 1887, when a connecting station was built between these two lines owned by the Companyia dels Ferrocarrils de Tarragona a Barcelona i França (TBF), although trains have been running in this area since 1865 when the section between Martorell and Tarragona (Barcelona-Martorell-Vilafranca-Tarragona line) was opened.",
"The connection and construction of the station are the result of the works aimed at joining different lines owned by TBF after the absorption of the company Companyia dels Ferrocarrils de Valls a Vilanova i Barcelona (VVB), which had built the Barcelona-Vilanova-Valls line and had opened the section Calafell-Valls in 1883.Initially, the two railway lines crossed each other via an overpass, one above the other, located very close to the actual station.",
"The station was built in an isolated area, surrounded by fields and marshes, about three kilometers from the urban center of Sant Vicenç de Calders, a village situated atop a hill, which was then an independent municipality of Vendrell.",
"It was situated between the tracks, three on the mountain side and three on the sea side.",
"The connection of the two tracks and the construction of the passenger and service station building were entrusted to the engineer Eduard Maristany i Gibert.",
"The passenger building was a single-story structure with various dependencies.",
"The lobby, restaurant, and baggage room occupied almost the entire space.",
"From that moment until the 1920s, the houses of the Sant Vicenç de Calders Railway Colony were gradually built.",
"Six pavilions and three buildings endure: those of the station master, the supervisor, and the block."

"Asotin Creek"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Asotin Creek''' (also known historically as the '''Asotin River''') is a tributary of the Snake River in Asotin County, southeastern Washington.",
"The creek's main stem is long, and measured to the head of its longest tributary its length is .",
"It flows into the Snake River at the town of Asotin, about south of Lewiston–Clarkston.",
"Asotin Creek drains about of mostly semi-arid plateau country on the northeastern flank of the Blue Mountains.The creek's name is derived from the Nez Perce for \"eel\", from the abundance of freshwater eels caught there.",
"The town of Asotin in 1878 and Asotin County in 1883 both were named after the creek."
],
[
"Course",
"Asotin Creek is formed by the confluence of its north and south forks near the unincorporated community of Cloverland.",
"The North Fork, long, begins near the historic Clearwater fire lookout tower in the Umatilla National Forest in Garfield County about above sea level.",
"It flows east through a canyon, receiving Middle Branch and South Fork creeks from the right, before crossing into Asotin County.",
"The long South Fork starts near Wickiup Campground, also in the Umatilla National Forest about in elevation.",
"From its origin in eastern Garfield County, it flows almost immediately northeast into Asotin County and turns north towards its confluence with the North Fork.The main stem descends northeast then east down a canyon in the Blue Mountain foothills.",
"Shortly below the confluence of the forks, it receives Charley Creek from the left.",
"Most of the main stem flows through private ranchland, though the Headgate County Park provides public access and a small fishing pond.",
"After the county park, it passes a U.S. Geological Survey stream gauge station and then reaches the unincorporated community of Jerry, where George Creek joins from the right.",
"It then flows into the Snake River at Chief Looking Glass Park in Asotin, upstream of the Snake's confluence with the Columbia River, and across the Snake from Hells Gate State Park.",
"State Route 129 crosses the creek just above its mouth."
],
[
"Watershed",
"Most land in the Asotin Creek watershed is privately owned, with the primary land uses being grazing in the valley slopes and river bottoms (about 43% of the watershed) and dryland farming on the plateaus (about 26%).",
"Wheat and barley are the main crops grown in this area.",
"Almost a third of cropland in the Asotin watershed is managed under the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)'s Conservation Reserve Program, which pays farmers to leave highly erodible land out of production.",
"Since the 1940s, extensive conservation efforts including terracing and sediment basins have reduced topsoil loss, which is a significant issue across much of the Palouse region of southeastern Washington.About 30% of the watershed, mostly at high elevations, is forested.",
"Most of the forest land is managed by the U.S. Forest Service as part of the Umatilla National Forest, with smaller areas managed by the Washington Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) or privately owned.",
"The mixed conifer forests consist primarily of ponderosa pine and Douglas fir, with western larch, subalpine fir and lodgepole pine at the highest elevations, and western red cedar, Engelmann spruce and grand fir in wetter low elevation soils.The area experiences a continental climate, with temperatures ranging from in winter to in summer.",
"Precipitation ranges from at the confluence with the Snake River to at the summit of the Blue Mountains.Geologically, the Asotin Creek watershed sits atop Columbia River basalts, which erupted from underground fissures 6–17 million years ago.",
"From about 5.4–2.4 million years ago, tectonic activity uplifted the basalts to form the Columbia Plateau.",
"The creeks cut into the landscape to form steep valleys separated by flat-topped ridges.",
"The basalts are topped by Ice Age fluvial deposits from the Bonneville flood, about 14,000 or 15,000 years old, and windblown loess deposits of sediment carried by the Missoula Floods in the same period."
],
[
"History",
"The confluence of Asotin Creek with the Snake River was used as a winter camp by the Alpowai band of Nez Perce, who favored the area which was sheltered from cold winter weather.",
"About twenty other seasonal Nez Perce camps were located upstream and along tributaries of the creek.",
"In addition to the plentiful freshwater eels for which the place was named, the creek supported large runs of steelhead trout and chinook salmon.",
"The Nez Perce name for this place, first recorded in English as \"Has-hu-tin\" or \"Hassotin\", was eventually simplified to \"Asotin\" by the Board of Geographic Names in 1897.Archeological evidence from nearby Alpowa Creek suggests that humans have occupied this region for at least 6,000 years.A major Nez Perce trail from what is now Lewiston ran along the creek from the Snake River all the way up to the confluence of the forks.",
"From there it climbed towards summer hunting grounds in the Blue Mountains, by way of what is now called Smoothing Iron Ridge.",
"The trail then passed by Wickiup Springs, near the headwaters of the South Fork, before continuing west to Mount Misery and points beyond.The first Europeans to see the mouth of Asotin Creek were the Lewis and Clark expedition in 1805.Lewis and Clark met with Chief Apash Wyakaikt, who came to be known by the whites as \"Looking Glass\" after being gifted a mirror by the expedition.",
"The name was passed down to his son Looking Glass, who would become a key figure in the Nez Perce War.",
"Other explorers who passed through this area include fur traders Wilson Price Hunt and John Work around 1810–12, though they left no written records of the place.",
"In 1834, Benjamin Bonneville led an expedition for the American Fur Company through the area and was hosted by Apash Wyakaikt at the Asotin village, where they \"enjoyed a great feast, fine accommodations, and an array of entertainment\".",
"Bonneville noted the area's potential for agriculture, though the first homesteaders would not arrive for another thirty years or so.Under pressure from encroaching settlement, the 1855 Treaty of Walla Walla established a reservation for the Nez Perce that encompassed parts of southeast Washington, northeast Oregon and western Idaho, including the entirety of what is now Asotin County.",
"Within a few years, gold was discovered nearby and prospectors flocked to the area.",
"The Nez Perce appealed to the federal government to enforce the treaty, but were instead forced into an even smaller reservation on the Idaho side in 1863.From 1863, the Asotin area was officially opened to settlers.",
"In 1868, Peter \"Jerry\" Maguire homesteaded along the creek about uptream from the mouth, and started a large packing business that serviced nearby mining camps.",
"Over the next few years, more settlers moved to the area.",
"Although the area was no longer part of the reservation, some Nez Perce continued to graze their horses and hunt there, and initial relations between the Nez Perce and settlers were friendly.The hydroelectric powerhouse on Asotin Creek, c. 1910In the 1870s the federal government moved to force the remaining Nez Perce into Idaho, and the resistance led by Chief Joseph resulted in the Nez Perce War.",
"The Alpowai band and the younger Looking Glass allied with Chief Joseph.",
"Settlers in the Asotin area panicked, and anticipating violence, a number of homesteads were converted into forts.",
"In 1877, the US army drove the rebelling Nez Perce from the area in what is now remembered as the \"Flight of the Nez Perce\".",
"The following year, the towns of \"Assotin City\" and \"Asotin\" were platted at the mouth of the creek, and attracted more settlers to the area.",
"As the population grew, Asotin County was formed in 1883, and in 1886 the two settlements merged to form the single city of Asotin.The first proposal for diverting water from Asotin Creek came in 1863 when a Lewiston entrepreneur named Gillman proposed an irrigation canal leading from upper Asotin Creek into Jawbone Flat, the dry plateau southwest of what is now Clarkston bordered by Asotin Creek and the Snake River.",
"However, he was unable to raise the capital required for the project.",
"It was not until July 1896 that the canal was completed by the Lewiston Water and Power Company at a cost of $300,000.The long canal was designed to irrigate and provide municipal water to the fledgling settlement of Concord, which in 1898 became Clarkston.",
"By 1903 the population of the Clarkston area had increased from a tiny settlement of 15 people to more than 2,200.By the 1930s large areas around Asotin and Clarkston had been developed for orchards, while the dry prairies were plowed for wheat.In 1906 the Washington Water Power Company built a diversion dam and hydroelectric plant on Asotin Creek.",
"Water was diverted from Asotin Creek through a long wooden pipeline to a 3000-horsepower generating station located just above the creek's mouth.",
"The outflow was then channeled to a second, smaller powerhouse above Clarkston.",
"In addition to a small steam plant in Lewiston, the Asotin hydroelectric system met the early power needs of the whole region spanning from Lewiston, Clarkston, Asotin, Genesee and Moscow.",
"The hydroelectric system was abandoned sometime before 1935, when it was noted that \"no water has been diverted for power for many years\", but the pipeline was still being used for water supply.",
"The disused Asotin generating station still exists today and is located about upstream of Asotin.The intensity of livestock use was increased in the early 1900s with about 3,000 cattle grazing in the lower elevations of the watershed from spring through fall, and about 30,000 sheep in the higher elevations (primarily national forest lands) during summer.",
"There were also large herds of wild horses, but after a 1901 epidemic killed thousands of them, the remainder were rounded up and there have been no wild herds since about 1910.The Forest Service began regulating grazing in 1929, establishing a large range area known as the Asotin allotment.",
"Sheep ranching eventually declined, and ended on Umatilla National Forest lands after 1952.The upper Asotin Creek watershed was logged intensively from the 1930s to the 1950s, with almost all the accessible timber harvested multiple times."
],
[
"Ecology",
"The Asotin Creek Wildlife Area, managed by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW), includes about of shrub-steppe grassland and dry coniferous forest, providing habitat for deer, elk, wild turkey, quail, chukar and grouse.",
"The wildlife area is divided into three units, with the Asotin Creek and Weatherly units along the upper Asotin and Charles Creeks, and the separate George Creek Unit further east along the George Creek tributary.",
"Due to hunting and habitat loss, Rocky Mountain elk were considered functionally extinct in the Blue Mountains until they were reintroduced in the 1920s.",
"In the mid-1990s the Asotin Creek watershed provided winter range for about 1,100 head.Asotin Creek historically supported several anadromous fish species, including summer steelhead, spring and fall chinook salmon, bull trout, and Pacific lamprey.",
"The populations in Asotin Creek have been impacted by irrigation diversions, livestock grazing, and agricultural runoff.",
"In 1937 the U.S.",
"Fish and Wildlife Service reported that while the creek still had a large spring steelhead run, the salmon run was almost entirely gone.",
"The North Fork of Asotin Creek had the best remaining steelhead spawning habitat.",
"Thirteen irrigation diversions and two permanent dams formed substantial barriers to anadromous fish, especially during dry conditions when parts of the creek were completely dewatered by irrigation use.",
"Anadromous fish returns dropped even more in the mid-20th century with the construction of dams on the Snake and lower Columbia Rivers.",
"Bull trout were believed to be extirpated in the Asotin basin until a 1996 survey found spawners in the North Fork.",
"Large numbers of hatchery steelhead were released in the mouth of Asotin Creek until 1998, when WDFW designated the Asotin watershed as a wild steelhead refuge.Since 1995, the creek has been managed under the Asotin Creek Model Watershed Plan, a cooperative effort including the Asotin County Conservation District, WDFW, and local landowners and funded by the Bonneville Power Administration, to restore and enhance habitat for steelhead and salmon spawning.",
"Habitat conservation work has included the restoration of of riparian habitat, and fencing along of critical waterways to prevent damage from grazing cattle."

"On their first album in nine years, they forget to replace that spark with anything else.\"",
"Rytlewski noted that for ''Oh Boy'', Harlem \"slowed the tempos, upped the production, and bled nearly every trace of boyish pep from their sound\", a change that can be \"hard to pull off\".",
"They concluded, \"Any band returning from a long hiatus needs to be judged on a curve, but no amount of expectation mitigation can completely shield somebody with an affection for Harlem’s old records from the disappoint here.",
"They waited nine years just to learn the party ended long ago.",
"\"Elijah Teed, writing for ''Exclaim!",
"'', also began their review by discussing Harlem's previous albums, saying, \"''Free Drugs ;-)'' and ''Hippies'' were like the first embers of a campfire, jumping and crackling without discernible destination or intent, but nevertheless carrying the spark of something warm and inviting.\"",

"A diamond solitaire establishes their engagement and Myra is invited to appear at the Whitney estate to meet his family.",
"Unbeknownst to Myra, Knowleton's parents—his mother in particular—are determined to see their male heir and only child marry into British royalty and perhaps procure a noble title for the family.",
"Informed that they have already arranged his marriage, the young swain is too diffident to resist the family matriarch.",

"Critical appraisal",
"Though Fitzgerald had doubts as to its literary value, his agent Harold Ober quickly procured $400 for the piece from The Saturday Evening Post.",
"According to biographer Matthew J. Bruccoli, Fitzgerald may have compared “Myra Meets His Family” unfavorably to his story “The Ice Palace,” considered one of his finest works of short fiction.",
"The stories were written during the same month.",
"Bruccoli adds that “Myra is a readily recognizable Fitzgerald heroine who appears under a dozen other names in later stories.”"

"is a popular song from 1904, with words and music by James Kendis and James Paley.",

":I'll stop flirting too, 'cause it's hurting you,:Keep my heart's affection burning all for you,:If you only fondle me.The song has been cited as one of the more risque, \"sophisticated\" songs of the day, along with \"In the Naughty Altogether\", \"Cuddle Up a Little Closer\", and \"You Can Go As Far As You Like With Me in My Merry Oldsmobile\"."

"This is in contrast to the conventional view that the framers intended to create a federal government with strict limitations on its powers.",
"When the first two volumes of this series were published in 1953, they attracted considerable scholarly discussion, much of it harshly critical of Crosskey's arguments.",
"Volume three, however, received far less scholarly attention when it was published in 1980."

"Fatima Daas"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Fatima Daas''' (born 1995) is a French-Algerian writer.",
"Her debut novel, ''The Last One'' (French: ''La Petite Dernière''), follows the life of a young Muslim woman as she explores her sexuality, religion, and relationships while living in Clichy-sous-Bois, a suburb of Paris."
],
[
"Biography",
"Daas was born in Saint-Germain-en-Laye to an Algerian immigrant family.",
"Her family settled in the working-class Parisian suburb of Clichy-sous-Bois and she spent much of her childhood in the surrounding department of Seine-Saint-Denis.",
"Daas is the youngest of three daughters and the only French-born.",
"Daas and her family are Muslims.Daas attended Lycée Alfred Nobel.",
"As a lycéenne, Daas began writing and attended writing workshops led by the French mystery writer, Tanguy Viel.",
"She went on to enroll at Paris 8 University Vincennes-Saint-Denis where she completed a Master's degree in creative writing.",
"As a part of her coursework, Daas wrote a novel over a period of 18 months that ultimately became ''The Last One''.",
"Daas is a lesbian.",
"She describes herself as an intersectional feminist."
],
[
"''The Last One: A Novel''",
"''The Last One'' was first published in French on August 20, 2020 when Daas was 25 years old and subsequently translated into English by Lara Vergnaud for publication on November 23, 2021.Daas describes the novel as a work of autofiction as the life of the main character, who is also named Fatima Daas, parallels Daas' own.",
"The book explores the intersection of the protagonist's identity as a queer Muslim woman studying and living in an immigrant-majority suburb where her identities both contradict and compliment one another.",
"When discussing the seemingly conflicted nature of the character – and Daas' own – identities, Daas stated: \"I didn’t suffer because of who I am.",
"I was never ashamed of being a lesbian, but I was ashamed of the loneliness of being unable to talk about it.",
"I wanted to transmit this feeling in my writing by inhabiting a character that refuses to choose, despite the external pressures of the world\".",
"Fatima Daas is not Daas' real name.",
"When asked, Daas has refused to share her real name to avoid involving her family in her career.",
"Daas has stated that a pseudonym allows her to reinvent herself and, in turn, explore multiple identities through her work.She cites the work and careers of Marguerite Duras, Abdellah Taïa, Athena Farrokhzad, Faïza Guène, Mehdi Charef, and Annie Ernaux as inspiration for her own writing.",
"References to Duras and Ernaux appear throughout ''The Last One''.",
"At Paris 8, while working on ''The Last One'', Daas met French filmmaker and novelist, Virginie Despantes, when the latter came to deliver a talk; Despantes encouraged Daas to continue working on her novel as it touched on subject matters rarely featured in French novels.",
"Despantes went on to praise the published novel and offered a book endorsement that reads: \"Fatima Daas carves out a portrait, like a patient, attentive sculptor…or like a mine searcher, aware that each word could make everything explode\"."

"infernalis''''', known from a partial hindlimb."
],
[
"Discovery and naming",
"Osteological thin section of one of the holotype metatarsals of ''Eoneophron'', with observed LAGs outlined in light blue and redThe ''Eoneophron'' fossil material was discovered in sediments of the Hell Creek Formation in Meade County, South Dakota, United States.",
"The specimen, which consists of a partial right hindlimb, was prepared and initially listed for commercial sale before being purchased in 2020 for $5,000 by Kyle Atkins-Weltman.",
"He then donated the specimen to the Carnegie Museum of Natural History for research.",
"Preliminary observation of the material had suggested that the bones belonged to a juvenile specimen of ''Anzu'', a related dinosaur from the same formation.",
"However, after analyzing the histology of the bones, Atkins-Weltman and colleagues determined that the individual would have been skeletally mature when it died.",
"Based on the observed lines of arrested growth (LAGs), they further estimated that the animal was in the sixth year of life when it died.In 2024, Atkins-Weltman ''et al''.",
"described ''Eoneophron infernalis'' as a new genus and species of caenagnathid oviraptorosaur based on these fossil remains.",
"CM 96523, the holotype specimen, consists of bones from the right leg, including the femur, the tibia with fused astragalocalcaneum, and metatarsals III and IV.",
"The generic name, ''Eoneophron'', combines the Ancient Greek word \"èos\", meaning \"dawn\", with \"''Neophron''\", the generic name of the Egyptian vulture, which has been referred to as \"pharaoh's chicken\".",
"This name was chosen in part to honor the lead author's pet nile monitor, named Pharaoh.",
"The specific name, \"''infernalis''\", is derived from the Latin word for Hell, referencing the discovery of the fossil material in the Hell Creek Formation.",
"The full binomial name also references the press nickname—\"chicken from hell\"—given to the related ''Anzu wyliei''."
],
[
"Description",
"Left femur of the holotypeAfter accounting for taphonomic distortion, Atkins-Weltman ''et al''.",
"determined that the femur of ''Eoneophron'' would have had a circumference of .",
"Using this, they estimated that ''Eoneophron'' had a body mass of approximately .",
"This is larger than several other caenagnathids, such as ''Anomalipes'', ''Apatoraptor'', ''Chirostenotes'', and ''Elmisaurus'', all of which weighed under .",
"The contemporary ''Anzu'' was even larger than ''Eoneophron'', weighing between ."
],
[
"Classification",
"In their phylogenetic analysis, Atkins-Weltman ''et al''.",
"(2024) recovered ''Eoneophron'' as the sister taxon to a clade comprising ''Citipes'' and ''Elmisaurus''.",

[
"Taxonomy",
"The lichen was first formally described as a new species in 1868 by the Finnish lichenologist William Nylander, based on collections made from coastal Angola.",
"Johannes Müller Argoviensis transferred it to the genus ''Buellia'' in 1880."
],
[
"Description",
"''Buellia subalbula'' has a crustose thallus, which is thin to thick and often forms distinct circular patches.",
"These patches can merge, creating a larger spread on the , which is typically rock ().",
"The thallus texture ranges from smooth and continuous in thinner forms to cracked and segmented (-) in thicker ones.",
"The margins of the thallus are bordered by a prothallus, which is noticeably blackened to pale grey, and in some cases, white but less distinct.",
"The surface of the thallus is , usually white or occasionally grey, and has a (frost-like) appearance.",
"It is made of dead cells and calcium oxalate crystals, which contribute to its thick, chalky look.The apothecia (fruiting bodies) of ''Buellia subalbula'' are typically but can have a thalline collar.",
"These apothecia are initially in the thallus, eventually becoming more prominent ().",
"They are characterised by their black colour, sometimes with a white pruinose , and a thin, black .",

"The , the layer surrounding the , is composed of narrow hyphae with a unique pigmentation that turns bluish-green under certain conditions.The hymenium, or the tissue bearing the spore-producing asci, is clear, with simple to moderately branched paraphyses.",
"These paraphyses end in a brown cap and contain a distinctive aeruginose pigment.",
"The asci are (club-shaped) and typically contain eight narrowly oblong to ellipsoid spores.",
"These spores are one-septate (divided into two cells) and develop a smooth surface as they mature.",

"Brown's daughter, Hallie Quinn Brown, co-founded the National Association of Colored Women (NACW)."
],
[
"Early life",
"Frances Scroggins was born into enslavement in Winchester County, Virginia, She was freed by one of her grandfathers - a white Revolutionary War officer and plantation owner.",
"Scroggins worked as an indentured servant until her employer moved to Cincinnati, Ohio.From around 1839, she boarded in the home of James Wilkerson, a freedman who ran a safehouse in the city.",
"During this time, she witnessed enslavers attempting to capture those fleeing slavery, helping to secure their freedom.",
"In one instance, an enraged enslaver attempted to \"claim\" Scroggins, furious that she had helped an enslaved woman to escape through the Cincinnati network.",
"Known for singing mournful songs by the roadside, Scroggins was called \"Crazy Jane\".In about 1840/1841, she married Thomas Arthur Brown of Frederick County, Maryland, who purchased his freedom in 1843.Thomas Brown worked as a steward on the Mississippi River, and was said to have been the first black express agent in the nation."
],
[
"Underground Railroad",
"The couple settled in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, at a residence called Monongahela House.",
"The Brown house in Pittsburgh became a frequent stop for enslaved people fleeing to Canada on the Underground Railroad.",
"There, aided by a network including freedman physician Martin Robinson Delany and the Reverend Lewis Woodson, they offered food, shelter, and directions onward to safety.In 1864, because of Frances' poor health, the family moved to Chatham, Ontario, Canada, returning to the US in 1870.The family then settled in Wilberforce, Ohio, where they built Homewood Cottage."
],

"Thomas Brown was known as the \"walking encyclopedia\", while Frances was said to have been very involved with Wilberforce University, where she acted as an unofficial counselor to students.In ''Women of Ohio,'' it was written that:Mr. and Mrs. Brown exerted a definite influence for good upon the community and “Ma” Brown, as she was affectionately called, lived serenely and did her alms quietly to the ripe age of ninety-five years.In ''Front Line of Freedom,'' Keith P. Griffler numbered Frances Scroggins Brown as \"among America’s forgotten children of the revolution\", part of \"the front line of the struggle against American slavery.",
"\"In 2023, Frances Scroggins Brown was included in ''The Day-Breakers,'' by poet Michael Fraser, which imagines the lives of Black soldiers who fought for the Union during the Civil War."

"Glossip v. Oklahoma"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''''Glossip v. Oklahoma''''' (Docket No.",
"22-7466) is a pending United States Supreme Court case.",
"The Court will decide whether Richard Glossip will receive a new trial in light of newly disclosed evidence, and a concession on behalf of the Attorney General of Oklahoma that Glossip did not receive a fair first trial."
],
[
"Background",
"===Conviction and first appeals===Shortly before dawn on January 7, 1997, Justin Sneed murdered Barry Van Treese, the owner of the Best Budget Inn motel in Oklahoma City.",
"In order to avoid the death penalty, Sneed agreed to testify against Richard Glossip—the motel's manager—and implicate him in an alleged murder-for-hire scheme.",
"At trial, Glossip was convicted of commissioning the murder of Van Treese, and later sentenced to death.At the time of the murder, Sneed was living rent-free at the Best Budget Inn, where he engaged in informal handyman work.",
"It would later come to light that Sneed was addicted to methamphetamine, and had a history of violent crime.",
"Following his trial in 1998, Glossip appealed on the grounds that he received ineffective assistance of counsel.",
"At trial, Glossip's attorney did not show the jury a video of police appearing to coerce Sneed into implicating him.",
"In 2001, an appeals court agreed, and granted Glossip a new trial.Amid questions about Sneed's reliability as a witness, Glossip's attorney requested that, before retrial, the State disclose all of Sneed's statements (written and spoken), especially those given between the first and second trials.",
"The State agreed, and insisted that it had disclosed all such statements.",
"At retrial, Glossip's attorney again did not show the footage of the police interrogation, although on the second occasion, the appeals court found that this was acceptable.===The State's evidence===In the summer of 2022, Glossip received several large boxes containing the trial prosecutor's files.",
"Included in the materials was a memorandum appearing to demonstrate the State coaching Sneed into changing material aspects of his testimony.",
"Around the same time, an office representing Sneed provided corroboration demonstrating his desire to recant his original testimony.",
"In early 2023, the State disclosed to Glossip a communication between the first and second trials, where Sneed told prosecutors that he was under the care of a psychiatrist, and that he was taking lithium to treat his bipolar disorder.",
"This appeared to contradict Sneed's testimony at the second trial, where he stated that (at the time of his arrest) he was not under the care of a psychiatrist, and that he had only erroneously been prescribed lithium.In the spring of 2023, Glossip filed a new application for post-conviction relief raising, among other things, issues regarding Sneed's suppressed statement about his psychiatric treatment.",
"The application also identified other alleged ''Brady'' violations, and allegations of prosecutorial misconduct.===Independent investigations===Around the same time, the state of Oklahoma (through its Attorney General, Gentner Drummond) was conducting its own inquiry into the reliability of Glossip's conviction.",
"This was in addition to another independent investigation undertaken by sixty-two Oklahoma legislators.",
"The Drummond report stated that the intentional withholding of evidence, particularly the evidence regarding Sneed's bipolar disorder, casts serious doubt on the validity of Glossip's conviction.",
"In light of this report, Drummond requested that the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals (OCCA) reverse Glossip's conviction based on the prosecutor's failure to correct Sneed's false testimony.",
"Despite this, the OCCA denied Glossip's application."
],
[
"Supreme Court",
"On April 26, 2023, Glossip submitted an application to the Supreme Court, requesting that his execution be stayed, pending the Court's disposition of petition for writs of ''certiorari''.",
"On May 5, Glossip's application for stay of execution was granted.",
"On January 22, 2024, Glossip's petitions for writs of ''certiorari'' were granted.",
"On January 26, the Court appointed Christopher G Michel to brief and argue the case as ''amicus curiae'' in support of the OCCA’s judgment below.",
"Glossip's case is expected to be argued during the Court's October 2024 term.",
"Due to his prior involvement in the case as a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit, Justice Gorsuch is recused from the case's proceedings."

[
"Question"
],
[
"Background",
"Chechnya and Ingushetia were part of the Checheno-Ingush Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic within the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic.",

"On 15 September 1991, the Assembly of Ingush Deputies passed a resolution, announcing secession from Checheno-Ingushetia to remain within the RSFSR.",
"On 15 October, a referendum was announced to confirm this decision.",
"The Ingush secession was accepted by the Chechen leadership and finalized on 4 June 1992 with the Russian law \"On the Creation of the Ingush Republic in the Russian Federation\".The Ingush feared that joining the independent Chechnya would have meant compromising the territorial claims on Prigorodny District, which is a subject of a dispute between the Ingush and Ossetians.",
"The Ingush lost the land following their deportation to Central Asia in 1944, and then recent Russian law On the Rehabilitation of Repressed Peoples, passed in April 1991, gave them hopes of returning the territory.",
"However, the Russian law \"On the Creation of the Ingush Republic in the Russian Federation\" did not include the disputed lands within the newly created Republic of Ingushetia.",
"The dispute remained unresolved and this soon led to the armed conflict in the region."

"Nathaniel Currier 1846.",
"'''''The Drunkard's Progress: From the First Glass to the Grave''''' is an 1846 lithograph by Nathaniel Currier.",
"It is a nine-step on a stone arch depicting a man's journey through alcoholism.",
"Through a series of vignettes it shows how a single drink starts an arc that ends in suicide.",
"Below the structure, the protagonist's wife and child stand in tears.The lithograph is based on John Warner Barber's 1826 work ''The Drunkard's Progress, or The Direct Road to Poverty, Wretchedness, & Ruin''.",
"Critical reception has been poor since the image was released, but it influenced other temperance-themed works.",
"''The Drunkard's Progress'' is used in high school American history classes to teach about the temperance movement."
],
[
"Background",
"From the 1800s until the start of Prohibition in 1920, the temperance movement was a major force in American life, advocating a ban on alcoholic beverages.",
"The movement came out of the Second Great Awakening and grew through revival meetings and missionary groups.",
"To reformers of the era, alcohol abuse and slavery were seen as the two major social ills in the United States.",
"Initially, temperance advocates pushed for people to abstain from drinking liquor, but by 1840, the focus on spirits was replaced with across-the-board teetotalism.The company that would become Currier and Ives was founded in 1834 by Nathaniel Currier.",
"It would grow to be the go-to publisher and manufacturer of mass produced lithographs in the United States.",
"Their low cost prints, which retailed between $0.15 and $3.00 depending on the size (equivalent to $ and $ in , respectively), were found in homes and businesses across the country.",
"Currier and Ives's works mostly depicted religious, moralistic, and patriotic scenes, as well as idealized versions of rural life.",
"''The Drunkard's Progress'' is one of several temperance-themed images in their catalogue which show how the consumption of alcohol leads to ruin."
],
[
"Creation",
"In 1826, John Warner Barber published ''The Drunkard's Progress, or The Direct Road to Poverty, Wretchedness, & Ruin'', a four-part lithograph depicting a family's journey to the poorhouse due to consuming alcohol.",
"Based on Barber's work, Currier created his similarly named ''The Drunkard's Progress: From the First Glass to the Grave'' in 1846.",
"''The Drunkard's Progress, or The Direct Road to Poverty, Wretchedness, & Ruin''.",
"John Warner Barber 1826."
],
[
"Description",
"''The Drunkard's Progress'' is a , a common visual device in the 1800s.",
"Across the middle of the image is stone arch with ascending and then descending steps.",
"The image uses the nine stairs to represent nine stages of alcoholism, as imagined by Currier.",
"Below the stone structure, the male protagonist's wife and child stand by their burning home in tears.According to the print, the path to ruin starts with a singular social drink provided to the protagonist by \"a woman of evidently questionable virtue\".",
"He then progresses to drinking to \"keep the cold out\" and then, subsequently, to intoxication.",
"At the fourth step, the protagonist starts to engage in violence while intoxicated.",
"The arc peaks with the man, cigar in hand, partying with friends.",
"The sixth step, and first down, depicts the man falling into poverty due to his use of alcohol.",
"He is then \"forsaken by friends\" which leads to him turning to crime.",
"The final stage shows the protagonist dying by suicide."
],
[
"Reception and legacy",
"''The Drunkard's Progress''.",
"Kellogg Brothers 1864.",
"''The Drunkard's Progress'' has been mostly panned by commentators.",
"Writing for ''The Baltimore Sun'' in 1930, Robert Sisk found the lithograph to be self-defeating by having the protagonist die by a gunshot instead of through drinking.",
"Douglas Naylor described it as \"prize-deserving\" in a 1933 article in ''The Pittsburgh Press''.",
"In 1984, Tess Panfil, writing for the ''The Berkshire Eagle'', found the work to be overwrought in her review of a Currier and Ives exhibition.The same year as Currier, the Kellogg Brothers released their own version of ''The Drunkard's Progress''.",
"In the Kelloggs' version, the family of the protagonist is replaced by a distillery and a man walking out the front with two money bags.",
"English Professor John William Crowley suggests that the Kellogg Brothers copied their version from Currier.With ''The Drunkard's Progress'', Currier established the plot arc used in temperance novels: a first drink quickly leading to a premature death.",
"''Mary Grover, Or, The Trusting Wife: A Domestic Temperance Tale'' was explicitly written by Charles Burdett to turn the image into a book.",
"''George's Mother'' by Stephen Crane was also influenced by the lithograph.The work is presented as a primary source in classes on American history to teach about the temperance movement.",
"One social studies teacher said he uses it because the progression of alcoholism depicted closely matches the message of anti-drug programing in schools such as D.A.R.E.",
"Students have compared the simplistic \"just say no\" messaging of ''The Drunkard's Progress'' with ''Faces of Meth''."

"1991 Chechen presidential election"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Presidential elections''' were held in the Chechen Republic on 27 October 1991.At the same time, elections to the Parliament of the republic were also held.",
"The result was a victory for Dzokhar Dudayev."
],
[
"Background",
"On 8 June 1991, a nationalist opposition Chechen National Congress, albeit lacking a legal authority, passed a resolution dissolving the Supreme Soviet of the Checheno-Ingush Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic and proclaiming the Chechen Republic (Nokhchi-Cho).",
"In August and September 1991, the protests organized by Chechen National Congress and its leader Dzokhar Dudayev ousted the Communist Party and its leader Doku Zavgayev from power in Checheno-Ingushetia.",
"The leadership of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic also supported removing Doku Zavgayev from office.A subsequent conflict between the supporters of Dudayev and Russian authorities led to the Chechen National Congress proclaiming itself as a provisional government in Chechnya before the elections, which were scheduled by the Congress for October 1991.Initially, the executive committee of the CNC scheduled presidential elections for 19 October and parliamentary elections for 27 October, but both were ultimately held on the same date on 27 October 1991.On 15 September 1991, the Assembly of Ingush Deputies passed a resolution, announcing its secession from Checheno-Ingushetia to remain within the RSFSR, thus forming the \"Ingush Autonomous Republic\".",
"A referendum held in Ingushetia on 30 November to 1 December confirmed this decision, and it was finalized on 4 June 1992 with the Russian law “On the Creation of the Ingush Republic in the Russian Federation”.",
"The Ingush feared that joining the independent Chechnya would have meant compromising territorial claims on Prigorodny District, which is a subject of a dispute between the Ingush and Ossetians.",
"The Ingush lost the land following their deportation to Central Asia in 1944, and then recent Russian law On the Rehabilitation of Repressed Peoples, passed in April 1991, gave them hopes of returning the territory.",
"Thus, the Ingush did not take part in Chechen election."
],
[
"Conduct",
"Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia and Georgia sent their observers, and the representatives of non-governmental organizations from several countries also attended the elections.",
"They declared the elections to be free and democratic.According to John B. Dunlop, although some flaws had been observed, the election still could be regarded as reflecting the will of Chechen people.",
"Ruslan Khasbulatov claimed that the elections were undemocratic."
],
[
"Results"
],
[
"Reactions",
"* / – On 2 November, the Fifth Congress of RSFSR Deputies under the chairmanship of Ruslan Khasbulatov declared the elections to be unlawful and unconstitutional.",
"* – Georgian President Zviad Gamsakhurdia congratulated Dzokhar Dudayev on victory and attended his inauguration."
],
[
"Aftermath",
"On 1 November, Dzokhar Dudayev issued a decree declaring the independence of the Chechen Republic.===Inauguration===Dudayev's inauguration was scheduled for 9 November.",
"With an apparent goal of prevent Dudayev's inauguration, Russian President Boris Yeltsin declared the state of emergency in Chechnya on 8 November and ordered the introduction of troops to restore the order, while banning rallies and ordering the confiscation of firearms.",
"532 Russian Interior Ministry troops arrived to Khankala military airport in Chechnya, but they were isolated by the Chechen National Guard, which blockaded the roads to a military airfield.",
"The Russian troops were bussed to the Russian border by Chechen militiamen.",
"Amidst the news of the blockade of Russian troops in Khankala, other Russian troops landed in Vladikavkaz, North Ossetia.Russia issued a warrant for the arrest of Dudayev.",
"Inauguration took place and Dudayev took an oath on the Koran.",
"Dudayev responded by declaring the martial law in Chechnya and announcing a general mobilization.",
"The Dudayev's troops began to build street barricades out of buses and trucks to prevent Russian troops from entering Grozny.",
"Chechen activists hijacked a Tupolov-154 Aeroflot airliner in Mineralnye Vody with a goal of bringing international attention to the Chechen situation.",
"Police patrols were issued automatic rifles and security was strengthened around Russian Parliament in Moscow in face of threats against Yeltsin's life coming from Grozny.",
"The decision to send the troops was not supported by the Soviet leaders, with the Soviet Interior Minister Viktor Barannikov saying that he and Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev wanted to see the conflict resolved by \"political means\".",
"On 11 November, Russian Supreme Soviet voted 177 to 4 to abolish the state of emergency."

"Lechea maritima"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''''Lechea maritima''''', also known as '''beach pinweed''', is a herbaceous perennial plant in the Cistaceae family found along coastal sandy dunes of the East Coast of the United States and into Atlantic Canada."
],
[
"Description",
"''Lechea maritima'' is visually distinct from other ''Lechea'' species, characterized by dense, white trichomes, oblong leaves of the basal shoots, and a bushy-branched habit.",
"The white trichomes help to distinguish it from the other pinweed in its northern range, narrowleaf pinweed (''Lechea intermedia'').",
"Like ''Lechea racemulosa'', it has narrowly elliptic stem leaves, sepals with three veins, and pedicels that thicken below the calyx.",
"Plants flower in the mid to late summer; fruits develop in late summer to early fall.",
"The radial shoots of the plant do not begin to form until the late autumn and continue developing until December.",
"Flowering stems are tall and extensively branched.=== Subspecies ===Three subspecies of beach pinweed have been described: Virginia beach pinweed (''Lechea maritima'' var.",
"''virginica''), Gulf of St. Lawrence pinweed (''Lechea maritima'' var ''subcylindrica''), and beach pinweed (''Lechea maritima'' var ''maritima'').",
"Gulf of St. Lawrence beach pinweed is a highly specialized dune plant that does not grow in the foredunes, which is often densely populated by American beachgrass.",
"It is only found on the eastern coast of New Brunswick and in the Conway Sandhills of Prince Edward Island.",
"This subspecies has been assessed as a species of special concern; over 60% of individuals are found in protected areas.",
"The largest Canadian populations are in Kouchibouguac National Park.",
"First Nations such as the Mi'kmaq Confederacy of Prince Edward Island and the Lennox Island First Nation, as well as the Nature Conservancy of Canada, are involved in conservation efforts to protect a population on Hog Island, Prince Edward Island.Hodgdon (1938) stated that the Virginia beach pinweed range was from southern Maine to Delaware; in 1938, var.",
"''virginica'' was known only from Norfolk, Northampton, and Princess Anne, Virginia.",
"As of 2007, it was identified from eight countries in Virginia, as well as one county in Delaware, Maryland, and North Carolina.",
"Virginia beach pinweed generally have thicker stems than those of var.",
"''maritima'' and is more robust."
],
[
"Distribution",
"Beach pinweed is found almost exclusively along the Atlantic coast, but extends inward in Massachusetts and New Hampshire for approximately .",
"It is found from New Brunswick to North Carolina.",
"In the early 1910s, it was described as one of the most common plants on the island of Nantucket where it grew in \"pure\" sands.It is often found with ''Hudsonia tomentosa'', another species in the rock rose family."
],
[
"Conservation",
"Beach pinweed is threatened by rising tides that lead to dune erosion due to climate change.",
"The species is considered Globally Secure (G5), but the Gulf of St. Lawrence beach pinweed population has a national rank of imperilled (N2) in Canada."

"Esther Lord McNeill"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Esther Lord McNeill''' (also known as '''\"Mother McNeill\"'''; 1812–1907) was a leader in the temperance movement of the United States, associated with the Washingtonian movement, Women's Crusade, and the Woman's Christian Temperance Union (WCTU).",
"She was one of the band of crusaders whose work in Fredonia, New York, in 1873 was the foundation of the WCTU.",
"McNeill was also a foster parent and travel writer."
],
[
"Early life",
"Esther Lord was born at Carlisle, New York, July 23, 1812.Her father, Sylavanus Lord (1762-1822),was a Connecticut Yankee, her mother, Elizabeth Blanchard (1775-1858), a native of Massachusetts.",
"When Esther was ten years of age, her father died, leaving ten children."
],
[
"Career",
"In 1832, she married James McNeill, a wainwright, and together they enlisted in the Washingtonian movement.",
"About a month after her marriage, she became a Christian, a devout Presbyterian, and began a life's work of caring for homeless children.",
"In 1868, the couple moved to Fredonia, Chautauqua County, New York.",
"Her brother, Edward Clemens Lord, was a Baptist missionary in China, unable to care for his five children, and Mrs. McNeills agreed to do so.",
"In addition, they came with eight or ten foster children to be put to school.",
"Two years later, Mr. McNeill, a member of the State Temperance Society, died, and in this same year, one of the girls that Mrs. McNeill cared for also died.",
"In 1873, she entered the list of Women Crusaders, and became a member of the WCTU, organized December 22, 1873, in Fredonia.",
"This union continued to be the leading union in Chautauqua County, holding weekly meetings, and loyal always to county, state, and national organizations.",
"Mrs. McNeil was the first Chautauqua County president, and until 1894, the WCTU president in Fredonia.",
"Thereafter, until her death, she was its honorary president.McNeill was a delegate to the first New York State WCTU, in Syracuse, New York, on October 14, 1874, when the New York State organization was formed, preceding by a month the convention held in Cleveland at the Second Presbyterian Church, November 18–20.She attended all the national conventions up to 1905, when compelled by failing strength, she retired from active service.",

"Carl-Gösta Borelius"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Carl-Gösta Håkan Fredriksson Borelius''' (January 3, 1919, Övertorneå, Sweden – September 21, 1995, Täby, Sweden), was a Swedish cryptanalyst and IT manager."
],
[
"Early life",
"Borelius was the son of folk high school principal Fredrik Borelius and his wife Ester Håkansson.",
"He married Gunvor Rosén; they had three sons.After matriculating at Haparanda higher general education institution (college) in 1939, he began studies in mathematics at Uppsala University in 1940, among other things with professor Arne Beurling.",
"Shortly afterwards, he was called up for military service and, with the approval of Beurling, who had already been previously trained and involved in the crypto-forcing work, he was placed in the crypto department of the Defense Staff; what later became the National Defence Radio Establishment (Försvarets Radioanstalt), FRA."
],
[
"Career",
"During the Second World War, Borelius participated in the successful forcing of G-printer material (G-printer after the German Geheimfernschreiber), in which Arne Beurling made a decisive contribution.",
"When it eventually became known in Germany that the Swedes could read the G-printer traffic, they switched to a new machine, called the Z-printer, whose secrets remained unsolved for a long time.",
"In April 1943, however, a group consisting of mathematicians and cryptanalysts Bo Kjellberg, Tufve Ljunggren and Borelius were finally able to clarify the machine's construction.Beurling was very tight-lipped about how he had gone about forcing and reconstructing the German cipher machine and Borelius, probably after a visit by Beurling to the FRA in November 1976, made a reconstruction of his work based in part on Beurling's apparently reluctant response to a question about how it had happened.",
"He had used \"threes and fives in the text\", which means that you could create a certain structure in the mass of text as 3 = shift to letters (4 = numbers) and 5 = spaces.",
"The use of the numbers for transmission problems on long lines and human shortcomings made it possible to find openings in the work of interpretation and the understanding of the working methods of the remote printer.",
"Borelius's reconstruction is reproduced on FRA's website.Through his role at FRA, Borelius was one of the early users of Sweden's emerging \"mathematics machines\", or computers, such as BARK and BESK and also later designs such as Facit EDB and from Datasaab and others, and later became head of FRA's data center.",
"Borelius has described the creation and development of the first Swedish computers, especially from FRA's perspective, in a writing whose unclassified part has the title: ''FRA and ADB, How it began.''"

"Ernst von Treskow"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Ernst Heinrich von Treskow''' (30 May 1844 – 4 May 1915) was a German diplomat who served as envoy to Chile and Argentina."
],
[
"Early life",
"Radojewo Palace near PoznańTreskow was born on 30 May 1844 at Radojewo Palace near Poznań into the noble von Treskow family.",
"He was a son of Heinrich von Treskow (1795–1861) and Antonie von Bünting (1811–1860).",
"Among his siblings were Maximilian von Treskow, Otto von Treskow, Richard von Treskow, Oskar, Prussian Generals Franz von Treskow, Eduard von Treskow and Heinrich von Treskow, among others.",
"The palace he was born at was built for Sigmund Otto Joseph von Treskow.Treskow studied law at the Silesian Friedrich Wilhelm University and at the Ruprecht-Karls University.",
"In Breslau and Heidelberg he was a member of the Corps Borussia in 1862 and Corps Vandalia in 1863."
],
[
"Career",
"As a Second lieutenant in the 2nd Guards Foot Regiment of the Prussian Army, Treskow took part in the Austro-Prussian War of 1866 and the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 to 1871 before joined the Foreign Office in 1874.From 1876 he worked at the Consulate General in London.",
"From 1879 he was Consul in Cairo.",
"As such, he received Prince Friedrich Karl of Prussia on his trip to the Orient in 1883.During the Urabi revolt in 1882, he brought German and Austrian citizens to safety via Ismailia and Port Said.",
"He then served as Consul General in Cape Town from 1888.Here he took over the official duties from the late Ernst Bieber (1845–1888) and then moved to Budapest and Constantinople in the same position until 1891.===Ambassador to Chile===Between 1891 and 1899 he served as German ambassador in Santiago de Chile.",
"Even before he took office, his predecessor Felix von Gutschmid had expressly forbidden the German military advisors present in the country from intervening in the civil war between supporters of Parliament, the Congresistas, and supporters of President José Manuel Balmaceda.",
"However, the leading military advisor Emil Körner did not adhere to this instruction.",
"Rather, he defected to the insurgents under Jorge Montt Álvarez and coordinated the operations of the congressional troops as their chief of staff.",
"Körner's intervention contributed significantly to the success of the Congresistas and helped them take power.",
"In view of the new situation, Gutschmid advised his superiors in the Foreign Office and Emperor Wilhelm II not to prosecute Körner for his disloyalty to the legitimate Chilean government (Treskow even recommended that Körner be awarded the Order of the Red Eagle).",
"He traveled to the German Empire in 1894 for decoration (but only received the Order of the Crown instead of the Order of the Eagle) and traveled back to Chile in October 1895 with 31 other military advisors from the Empire.Later, the understanding between the ambassador and the military advisors was much more tense.",
"In his reports to the Reich Chancellor Chlodwig zu Hohenlohe-Schillingsfürst in 1896 and 1897, von Treskow repeatedly complained about the high-handed behavior of the advisors.",
"He described them as \"modern soldiers of fortune\" and accused them of taking part in internal Chilean conflicts and even selling weapons from Krupp and Mauser.===Ambassador to Argentina===From 1899 to 1900, Treskow was German ambassador to Buenos Aires.",
"At this time, the Beagle conflict was brewing between the governments of Argentina and Chile due to aggressive Argentine propaganda.",
"During Treskow's term of office, Argentine-German military cooperation reached a climax with the opening of the Escuela Superior de Guerra in Buenos Aires on March 7, 1900, by President Julio Argentino Roca."

"Most of the Edo period was the territory of kotaiyoriai motemoku goreishu (hatamoto).",
"The domain’s capital was placed in Nariwa Castle (called Nariwa Jinya in the later period)."
],
[
"History",
"The Nariwa Domain began in 1617 when , the lord of the Wakasa Domain of Inaba Province, was increased to 35,000 koku due to the war service of the Siege of Osaka and joined the army.Ieharu abolished Tsurukubu Castle and built a new castle at the foot of the mountain.",
"Ieharu, who was the lord of the Nariwa Domain, was busy with the use of the shogunate.",
"First of all, when Fukushima Masanori was deprived of his fief in 1619, he was ordered to guard Mihara Castle in Bingo Province with his brother-in-law Ikeda Nagayuki.",
"In the construction of Osaka Castle in the following year in 1620, he was involved in the construction of stone walls of Tensu, Honmaru, and Ninomaru, and was praised for his talent and came to be called a master of castle construction.",
"Then, in 1634, when Gamo Tadatomo, the lord of the Matsuyama Domain in Iyo Province, died and became uninoccessed, he served as a castle guard at Matsuyama Castle.",
"And in 1636, in the Edo Castle Sotobori Fushin (near Marunouchi Kajibashi), he belonged to the Ishigaki-kata headed by Ikeda Mitsumasa, the lord of Okayama Domain in Bizen Province, a relative.",
"After that, the stone wall was moved to Koishikawa Korakuen, and even now people can see the stone wall where the Yamazaki clan’s engraving was dug.",
"In addition, Ieharu actively promoted the development of Nitta in Renjima, Asakuchi-gun, a flying territory, and his skills were highly evaluated by the shogunate.",
"In addition, when the second son returned to Nariwa as a taishin hatamoto (later, kotai yoriai omotoku goreshu), it became the territory of the Yamazaki clan again, and the development of Nitta throughout the Edo period was successful, and Nariwa's territory became an opportunity for the restoration and establishment of a domain at the end of the Edo period.",
"In 1638, he was entrusted with the reconstruction of Amakusa, which was devastated by the Shimabara War, and after adding 7,000 koku, he was given 42,000 koku of the Tomioka Domain in Higo Province and was transferred.",
"Ieharu was evaluated by the cabinet of the shogunate for his castle construction technology, the development of the new fields of Renjima, and his loyalty to the shogunate's errands, and his ability was bought and re-sealed.",
"Ieharu focused on the reconstruction of Amakusa, which was exhausted by the Shimabara Rebellion, and the renovation of Tomioka Castle, and due to his achievements, it was increased and transferred to 53,000 koku in the Marugame Domain of Sanuki Province in 1641.In 1639, Mizutani Katsutaka joined from the Shimodate Domain in Hitachi Province with 50,000 koku.",

"However, Toyoharu Yamazaki, the second son of Ieharu, who was known for 5,000 koku in Nio, Mino County, Sanuki Province as the guardian of Haruyori, was allowed to inherit the name of the Yamazaki family by the shogunate and the territory was relieved.",
"In May 1658, the territory was moved to Kawakami-gun and Asakuchi-gun in Bitchu Province by the arrangement of the shogunate, and made his former territory Nariwa-mura, Kawakami-gun, which was the birthplace of Toyoji.",
"Since his father Ieji moved to the Tomioka Domain in Higo Province in 1638, the Yamazaki clan returned to Nariwa for the first time in 19 years.",
"Toyoji was allowed by the shogunate to go to the country, and went to the territory while being a hatamoto with less than 10,000 koku.",
"This entry into the country became a custom of the Yamazaki clan for generations, and it was an opportunity to join the Kataiyoriai Omememiki Goreishu, which was given the same formality as the daimyo.After that, Toyoharu's descendants ruled the land of Nariwa as kotai Yoriai Omotemukai Goreishu (daimyo from 1868) until the Haihan-chi-chiken (a prefecture) in 1871 without being transferred.",
"In 1868 at the end of the Edo period, (who became a daimyo and changed his name to Harumasa), he filed a petition with the Meiji government for the development of Nitta in Renjima, Asakuchi County, and he had a high straight position of 12,746 koku and established a domain in line with the lords (Ishin Ritsuhan).",
"The Yamazaki clan has been promoting the development of Nitta in Asakuchi County since the generation of Ieji, but in the era of Toyoji, 280 towns were completed in Kamejima Shinden, and at the end of the Edo period, Tsurushinden, which was more than 280 towns was developed.",
