"Chabardella"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''''Chabardella''''' is an extinct genus of mantis shrimp which lived during the Late Carboniferous in France.",
"It was named in 2009, with '''''C.",
"spinosa''''' as the type and only species."
],
[
"Discovery and naming",
"The fossil material of ''Chabardella'' was discovered in the Saint-Louis opencast pit in Montceau-les-Mines, France, which dates to the Stephanian B and C substages of the Late Carboniferous period.",
"A research program on the fossil content of this site began in 2000, during which the only known specimen was found in a concretion.",
"This fossil belongs to the National Museum of Natural History, France and was deposited in an off-site facility in Autun.In 2009, Racheboeuf, Schram and Vidal described ''Chabardella spinosa'' as a new genus and species of mantis shrimp based on this fossil.",
"The holotype specimen, MNHN-SOT 28610, consists of the external mold of a weathered, near-complete exoskeleton, preserving its left side.",
"The generic name honors D. Chabard, who was curator of the Muséum d'histoire naturelle d'Autun and therefore in charge of the Montceau-les-Mines fossil collection.",
"The specific name, ''spinosa'', references the rows of spines on the margins of the animal's segments."
],
[
"Description",
"''Chabardella'' was a small crustacean, with an arched body reaching a total length of around .",
"The animal's body was laterally compressed, being flattened from side to side and appearing narrow when viewed from above.",
"Like other mantis shrimps, ''Chabardella'' has raptorial maxillipeds (feeding appendages): the second to fifth segments of the thorax each bear a pair of enlarged thoracopods which would have been used to capture prey.",
"The raptorial appendages of the frontmost pair are each wide at the base, larger than those of the other three pairs (which are each wide at the base).Though the carapace is poorly preserved, it has been estimated to be long and high, and is known to cover the head and front part of the thorax, whereas the last four thoracic segments were left exposed.",
"The segments of the thorax are short but tall, each measuring around long and tall.",
"The abdomen is split into six segments, which decrease in size along the animal's length: the first abdominal segment is long and tall, whereas the last is only long and tall.",
"The telson is elongated and subtriangular in shape, and the uropod has a short, blade-like base.",
"The rest of the tail fan is not preserved and thus poorly known.The hind margin of each thoracic and abdominal segment is almost vertical, and possesses ridges with five or six short, backward-pointing spines on each side.",
"These spines are largest near the middle of the crustacean's back, decreasing in size down its sides.",
"The hind segments also have slightly larger spines than the segments further front.",
"These spines are a feature unique to ''Chabardella'', and are unknown in other Paleozoic mantis shrimps."
],
[
"Classification",
"Because the frontmost pair of raptorial appendages is larger than the latter pairs, Racheboeuf, Schram and Vidal (2009) recognized ''Chabardella'' as a close relative of ''Gorgonophontes'', which also has this feature.",
"The authors thus placed ''Chabardella'' into Gorgonophontidae, making it the second genus assigned to this family.",
"This placement was first questioned by Haug ''et al.''",
"(2010), which found ''Chabardella'', ''Gorgonophontes'' and the ''Tyrannophontes''+Unipeltata clade to form an unresolved polytomy.",
"However, they acknowledge this result may have been due to the lack of data on the tail fan of ''Chabardella'', which is poorly preserved.",
"Smith ''et al.''",
"(2023) conducted a phylogenetic analysis which also placed ''Chabardella'' in an unresolved polytomy, and further suggests the incomplete knowledge of ''Daidal pattoni'' may have also led to this result.",
"The results of their phylogenetic analyses are displayed in the cladogram below:"

],
[
"Introduction",
"Sinn Fein President Mary Lou McDonald (right) and vice president Michelle O'Neill|247x247pxThe '''2024 Northern Ireland Executive formation''' followed on from the 2022 Northern Ireland Assembly election, but was delayed to February 2024.The 22 months delay in the restoration of the Northern Ireland Executive resulted from a boycott of the process by the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP)."
],
[
"Background",
"With Brexit in January 2020, issues with the Irish border arose due to the Brexit withdrawal agreement.",
"In the Brexit negotiations potential issues were considered with the Irish backstop.",
"In December 2021, a judge ruled that DUP ministers boycotting the North/South Ministerial Council to protest the Northern Ireland Protocol were an \"abject breach of their solemn pledge\".",
"The 2022 Northern Ireland Assembly election resulted in Sinn Féin becoming the largest party, marking the first time an Irish nationalist/republican party won the most seats.",
"This gave them the right to nominate Northern Ireland's first-ever nationalist first minister of Northern Ireland.",
"The Democratic Unionist Party refused to return to power-sharing over disagreements over the Northern Ireland Protocol and the Windsor Framework.",
"The absence of an executive left senior civil servants controlling the nine government departments."
],
[
"Events",
"DUP leader Jeffrey DonaldsonIf no executive is formed within six months of an Assembly election, the United Kingdom Government's Northern Ireland Secretary can call a new election early.",
"On 28 September 2022, Chris Heaton-Harris, the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, stated that he had a legal obligation to call an early election on 28 October if no government was formed by that date, probably to be held no later than January 2023.Sinn Féin leader Michelle O'Neill voiced her opposition to such an election: \"The people spoke, and the people asked for a functioning executive, they asked for us to make politics work.\"",
"Both the UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and the Irish Tánaiste (Deputy Prime Minister) Leo Varadkar had urged the DUP to agree to the formation of a Government.The parties met on 27 October and failed to elect a Speaker, the fourth time they had met and failed to do so, and no government was formed by the deadline.",
"On 28 October, Heaton-Harris expressed disappointment that no Executive had been formed and acknowledged his legal duty to call an election, but delayed immediately calling one.",
"The chief electoral officer said the election date would likely be 15 December.",
"The last date that an election could be held under the legislation existing then was 19 January 2023.On 29 October, Heaton-Harris continued to delay calling an election.",
"Claire Hanna, a Member of Parliament for the SDLP, reacted to the news, saying an election was now \"less likely\".",
"Heaton-Harris held another round of talks with the political parties on 1 November, amid speculation that the UK government could introduce legislation to delay the need for a new election.",
"However, Northern Ireland Office Minister Steve Baker said on 2 November that Heaton-Harris \"will soon confirm the date of the next Northern Ireland Assembly election as required by law.",
"\"On 4 November, Heaton-Harris said an election would not be held in December.",
"On 9 November, he said that he would be introducing legislation to (retrospectively) extend the deadline to form a new Assembly Executive to 8 December 2022, with the option for an additional 6-week extension.",
"The requisite legislation, the Northern Ireland (Executive Formation etc) Act 2022, was passed by the Westminster Parliament on 6 December 2022.In November 2022, British prime minister Rishi Sunak and Tánaiste of Ireland Micheál Martin met in Blackpool at the British-Irish Council summit.",
"Sunak said he was confident a breakthrough in negotiations over the Northern Ireland Protocol were possible.The December 2022 deadline passed without any resolution.",
"The deadline was extended to 19 January 2023.Heaton-Harris invited the parties to new talks on 11 January 2023 to discuss the situation, but Sinn Féin pulled out in protest at the exclusion of its President, Mary Lou McDonald, after which the SDLP refused to take part as well.Under the then legislation, the latest possible date for the next election, if an Executive is not formed, was 13 April 2023.The deadline to form an Executive passed on 19 January 2023, but Heaton-Harris played down the prospect of him calling a snap election.Under then existing legislation, Heaton-Harris had to call an election by the end of the first week of March 2023.However, he proposed a further extension, with a new deadline to form an Executive of 18 January 2024 proposed.",
"This was achieved through the Northern Ireland (Executive Formation and Organ and Tissue Donation) Act 2023, which completed its passage through the Westminster Parliament in late February 2023.On 27 February 2023, the UK and EU announced the Windsor Framework to make changes to the Northern Ireland Protocol.",
"It was hoped that this would lead to formation of an Assembly executive.",
"However, the DUP boycott continued.",
"Talks with the DUP continued without success through to December.The Assembly was recalled on 17 January 2024.The DUP position was unchanged.",
"Heaton-Harris said that he would, again, bring primary legislation to further extend the deadline to 8 February 2024, via the Northern Ireland (Executive Formation) Bill 2024.On 18 January 2024, the legal deadline to restore power-sharing was passed.",
"The same day the largest general strike in more than 50 years was held across Northern Ireland, in protest over pay.",
"Secretary of State for Northern Ireland Chris Heaton-Harris released a statement on the situation.",
"In 25 January, the Northern Ireland (Executive Formation) Act 2024 was introduced to extend the period necessary for restoration of government without calling a snap election.",
"It came into law the same day.On 29 January 2024, an urgent meeting of the Democratic Unionist Party executive was called following the passing over the deadline to restore power sharing at Stormont.",
"Details of the meeting was reportedly leaked to the BBC.",
"Jeffrey Donaldson revealed in the morning that his party would return to Stormont.",
"This end of the boycott was welcomed by Sinn Féin.The UK Government published a command paper laying out the deal.",
"The deal will end the alignment of EU law in Northern Ireland.",
"Due to the Brexit withdrawal agreement, internal trade was disrupted between the British Isles.",
"A DUP agreement with the Sunak ministry will reportedly reduce checks and paperwork on goods moving from Great Britain to Northern Ireland.",
"This involves the creation of a \"UK internal market\" in order to ease unionist fears over de-facto border in the Irish Sea.",

"Giuseppe Frassinetti"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Paolo Giuseppe Maria Frassinetti''', also known as '''Giuseppe Frassinetti''' or '''Joseph Frassinetti''' (1804–1868), was an Italian priest who founded the Congregation of the Sons of Holy Mary Immaculate, also known as '''S.H.M.I.'''",
"or '''F.S.M.I.",
"'''."
],
[
"The Frassinetti family",
"'''Joseph Frassinetti''', whose complete baptismal name was '''Paolo Giuseppe Maria''' was born in Genoa, Italy on December 15, 1804 to Giovanni Battista Frassinetti, and Angela Viale.",
"His father owned a small fabric store, which allowed them a modest but decorous life.",
"The parents, of firm Christian principles, educated their children in an austere and fervent piety.",
"Unfortunately, out of eleven, only five siblings survived the childhood; namely: Joseph, Francesco, Paola, Giovanni, and Rafaele.The mother, a kind and lovely woman, educated her children to a deep Marian devotion.",
"Following a traditional custom among the Catholics of Genoa, she brought all her children, once they reached the age of reason, to the ''Shrine of La Madonnetta'', on the Hill of Carbonara, for offering their heart to the Virgin Mary.Suddenly, on January 6, 1819, the family's devout and serene life was disturbed by an unexpected event: the untimely death of mother Angela.This profound grief put father Giambattista and his children into the test, deeply marking their existence.",
"The profound faith in God, as well as their mutual love and solidarity, allowed them to move forward, without regrets, trusting in the Divine Providence.With them, there also lived Aunt Antonietta, the sister of father Giovanni Battista, who tried as much as possible to make up for the absence of their mother.",
"Sadly, seven years later, she died too.",
"Although the Frassinettis had a maid for the heaviest work, the responsibility of being, ''the governess of the house'', fell on the young Paola, who was only seventeen years old at that time.",
"She was particularly attentive to her younger brothers, for whom she played a maternal role.",
"For this, Giovanni and Raffaele would show her a deep gratitude till the end of their life.Meanwhile, Joseph attended the Archdiocesan Seminary of Genoa as an ''outsider''; meaning: he would attend classes during the day, and then return home for the night.",
"He did not limit himself to scholastic knowledge, but kept himself abreast of the social issues of the time, in a daily dialogue with his father and siblings.By listening to them and asking questions, Paola, who had no formal schooling as by the custom of the time, was able to learn many things.",
"Moreover, having received the basic lessons on reading and writing from her father and sibling, she would continue her education through self-study.Following on the footsteps of Joseph, his brothers also chose the path of the priesthood: Francesco joined the Canons of the Lateran Basilica; while Giovanni and Raffaele became diocesan priests, and then collaborators with Fr.",
"Giuseppe in the Parish of Santa Sabina.",
"Inspired by the elder brother, they also wrote some books on preaching."

[
"Preparation for priestly ministry",
"The Seminary School of Genoa, included the following curriculum: the ''Minor Humanities'', corresponding to the Junior High School; ''Rhetorics'', or Senior High School; which was followed by ''Philosophical'' and ''Theological Studies''.Saint Antonio Maria Gianelli was one of Frasinetti‘s professor and lifelong friend.",
"He became the Bishop of Bobbio in 1838; and the founder of the “Daughters of Mary Most Holy of the Garden”, called \"The Gianelline\".",
"He died on June 7, 1846; was Beatified on April 19, 1925 by Pius XI; and canonized on October 21, 1951 by Pius XII.",
"Joseph dedicated himself to studies with seriousness and proficiency.",
"Among the many qualified professors who contributed to his formation, was Fr.",
"Antonio Maria Gianelli - now a Saint, who became the Bishop of Bobbio.",
"In addition to teaching Rhetorics, Fr.",
"Gianelli had organized the ''Academy of the Simple-hearted'', whose purpose was to foster creativity and love for literature among the young seminarians.",
"Every year, some artistic representations were organized, in which the best students would present their poetic and literary compositions - and Joseph was among the most active.",
"By means of these activities, Fr.",
"Gianelli also desired to establish with the seminarians a deep spiritual dialogue, which, for some of them, lasted the whole life through; as documented by the correspondence in our possession between the two.",
"In particular, Joseph learned from his master to esteem the Christocentric spirituality, and to value the morality of St. Alphonsus Maria de Liguori, which was in opposition to dominant rigorism of the time.The Theological studies allowed the young Frassinetti to form a solid doctrinal and catechetical preparation, which perfectly complemented his spiritual fervor.On June 9, 1827, Frassinetti was ordained to the Diaconate; and on September 22 of the same year, to the Priesthood.",
"Both ordinations were held in Savona, through the imposition of hands of Monsignor Joseph Vincenzo Airenti, bishop of that Diocese; since the Archdiocese of Genoa was at that time ''sede vacante''.Fr.",
"Joseph would write in his \"Clarifications on My Past\" (''Rischiaramenti sul mio passato''): \"As soon as I was ordained a priest, a strong desire took possession of my heart to help the young clergy, as much as I could, in my nothingness and trusting only in divine help - and it seemed to me that much could have been done for them.\"",
"Fr.",
"Frassinetti was therefore passionate about his vocation and eager to support his fellow priests in the apostolate, by word and example.",
"In 1852, at a mature age, he would write a book for priests, with the intention of comforting and inciting them in doing good: \"Jesus Christ, Model of the Priest\" (''Gesù Cristo, regola del sacerdote'').",
"This masterpiece was so well written that it can still be read today with great spiritual profit.The care for priestly vocations, as well as the attention in fostering fraternity among priests, and the commitment to their spiri-tual, cultural and moral formation, would become the specific charism of Fr.",
"Joseph Frassinetti."

"Joseph was sent as vicar to the ''Parish of Santo Stefano'' in Genoa, where he dedicated himself especially to the catechesis for children.At that time, in the city, there were a number of priestly associations involved in preaching and religious instruction; notably: ''The Urban Missionaries and The Evangelical Workers'', of which Fr.",
"Frassinetti was an active and zealous member.",
"In addition to this, he played a leading role in a new ecclesial group, which he himself helped founding, the so-called, ''Congregation of Blessed Leonardo of Porto Maurizio''.Blessed Leonardo of Porto Maurizio (1676-1751) - now a Saint, whose baptismal name was Paolo Girolamo Casanova, was a Franciscan preacher particularly committed to popular missions.",
"He was also responsible for propagating ''The Way of the Cross''.",
"St. Alphonsus defined him as, \"The greatest missionary of our century.",
"He was chosen as Patron Saint of the new Congregation for his zeal in evangelizing the simple people.It all began in the Lent of 1829, when Fr.",
"Luca de' Passi came from Bergamo to establish in Genoa the two institutions he had founded for the catechetical instruction and human formation of children: ''The Pious Works of St. Raphael'', for boys; and ''The Pious Works of St. Dorothy'', for girls.Abbot Agostino De Mari, who was the presider of the ''Evangelical Workers'', advised him to get help from Luigi Sturla, who was known as an enterprising seminarian, and rich in apostolic spirit.",
"The advice was accepted and proved to be a valuable one; so much so that before returning to Bergamo, Fr.",
"Passi entrusted to him both Pious Works in Genoa.Luigi Sturla and Joseph Frasineil were best friends, as they had been schoolmates for several years.",
"After the death of his father, Luigi temporarily left the seminary, as his relatives obliged him to take care of the family business - they were wealthy cloth merchants.",

"It was Sturla himself who conceived the idea of an ''Association'' that would bring together the priests and seminarians involved in the ''Pious Works of Saint Raphael and Saint Dorothy''.",
"Fir.",
"Frassinetti participated in the ''Association'' from the very beginning, and in a sense became its mind and heart.In addition to the commitment to catechetical activity, the members were dedicated to develop their spirituality, and to care for the formation of the new generations.",
"This Association, after changing name several times, ended up being popularly called, ''Congregation of Blessed Leonardo of Porto Maurizio''.",
"It was well accepted in Genoa by the young clergy who, thanks to it, were formed in the doctrine of St. Thomas Aquinas and in the morals of St. Alphonsus Maria de Liguori.",
"Other characteristics of the institution were the fidelity to the Pope and the opposition to Jansenism, which was still alive in the region of Liguria.",
"Precisely these aspects, together with a certain sympathy for the Society of Jesus, arose some mistrust and persecution, which caused the closure of the Congregation in 1848.Aside from that, Fr.",
"Frassinetti proposed and implemented the establishment of the Academy of Studies within the Congregation itself, which played an effective role in spreading the ideas mentioned above.Some young priests, endowed with lively minds and apostolic zeal, collaborated in this academy; among them were: Fr.",

"Salvatore Magnasco, soon to be Archbishop of Genoa; Fr.",
"Filippo Gentile, then appointed Bishop of Novara; and Fr.",
"Tommaso Reggio, now ''Blessed'', who was appointed first Bishop of Ventimiglia and then Archbishop of Genoa.Teamwork was the practice in the ''Congregation of Blessed Leonardo'', as everyone placed the common good before his personal interest.",
"Moreover, among many members, there arose a sincere friendship; as it was the case between Fr.",
"Joseph Frassinetti and Fr.",
"Luigi Sturla.",
"The latter, with his extroverted and tireless character, held the threads of the organization; while the former, as can be seen from his writings, continually elaborated the fundamental contents and the lines of development of the common work.",
"For both of them, in the prime of their priestly life, it was an unforgettable school of apostolate and priestly fraternity."

"It counted about 2,000 inhabitants, mainly engaged in fishing, agriculture, and maritime trade.",
"In 1831, Fr.",
"Joseph won the competition to become parish priest - as it was the common practice of the time in assigning the post.",
"It was a great responsibility which was entrusted to him, since he was only twenty-seven years old, The first thing he did was to search for collaborators, in line with his principle: \"It is better to do good work together with others.\"",
"Providentially, he found two valuable assistants in Fr.",

"Joseph and Paola",

"His only daughter ''Paolina'', as he fondly called her, seemed to him irreplaceable for the smooth running of the family.",
"Some friends, however, advised him to let her try; arguing that the girl's precarious health would have made her undertaking impossible.",
"As Paola began to search for a religious order, all the available proposals seemed impractical.",
"One of the recurring problems was the lack of a dowry, generally required for entering a monastery, which was above the means of her modest family.Meanwhile, partly because of her life of intense work and voluntary penance, and partly because of the sorrows of this fruitless search, Paola's health was deteriorating.Willing to help her, Fr.",
"Joseph, who had just become parish priest in Quinto, seeing that the town had healthy air and a mild climate, obtained permission from his father that Paola would live with him for a while.",
"The young lady, who was by then twenty-two years old, found immediate benefit from the climate, and, as expected, could not remain idle.",
"In addition to helping in the parish rectory, she set up a small school of sewing, housekeeping, and reading, for the local girls.",
"In the meantime, she met with some young women of the town, with whom she would go to the nearby Mount Moro on Sundays, to spend time in pious conversations and religious songs.",

"Joseph, who was following the events closely, developed with Paola the idea of founding a new religious institute, in which dowries would not be required.",
"This project was approved by the members of the ''Congregation of Blessed Leonardo'', and was also positively evaluated by the famous Jesuit Father Antonio Bresciani, to whom they turned for advice.",
"It was decided to make a one-year trial, during which each of the twelve girls, who had declared their commitment, would act as superior for a week, in turns.",
"Every Sunday, they would meet for religious instruction under the direction of Fr.",

"Fr.",
"Joseph, thinking that the experience was about to end, shared his feeling with his sister.",
"Quite courageously, Paola, who had been completely submissive until then, opposed her brother openly, arguing that, with God's help, she was willing to go ahead - alone if needed.",
"Fr.",
"Joseph, admiring her determination, resumed his collaboration.",
"After due discernment, it came out that there were six ladies willing to continue the religious experience; and it was decided that the new community should be called, \"Sisters of the Holy Faith\" (''Suore di Santa Fede'').The initial Rule was written by Fr.",
"Joseph on Holy Thursday of 1834, while the ladies were praying before the Blessed Sacrament.",
"The feast of St. Clare was chosen as the beginning of their common life, as she was a shining example of love and poverty.",
"On August 12, 1834, the seven young women made a pilgrimage to the Church of ''Santa Chiara in Albaro'', where Joseph Frassinetti celebrated Holy Mass for them.",

"They also assisted with generosity the ''Pious Work of Saint Dorothy'', which was newly established in Quinto.",
"Fr.",
"Luca de' Passi, who visited Quinto in 1835, learned of Paolas initiative, and suggested her to take care of this Pious Work in a permanent manner.",
"Paola willingly accepted the proposal, and changed the name of her Institute into, \"Sisters of Saint Dorothy\" (''Suore di Santa Dorotea'').During the cholera epidemic, which broke out in 1835 in Quinto, the young women generously assisted the suffering population.",
"Paola, however, who was ordered by her father to remain at home, spent her time preparing food for her companions and washing infected clothes.",
"By God's grace, none of them got infected.After this daring experience of self-giving and renunciation, some of the consecrated women began complaining of the hardships they endured and wished to return to their families.",
"Giambattista Frassinetti, who had reluctantly given his assent to the initiative, felt that the whole thing had gone beyond the bounds of common sense, and ordered Paola to return home to her family.In the meantime, Teresa Albino and Mariana Danero had been sent to the neighborhood of ''San Teodoro'' in Genoa to direct a school for the poor founded by Fr.",
"Sturla, who had requested for their help.",
"The choice turned out to be a providential one: while the ''Blessed Little House'' was definitively closed by the end of 1835, a small remnant of the Institute continued at San Teodoro.",
"Although Paola remained in her family out of obedience, she managed to see her companions from time to time, and to support them in their trials.",
"At the end, their faith and prayer were proven victorious: on Easter Sunday of 1836, Giambattista gave Paola permission to return to the community life, and this time for good.",
"It was indeed the day of the resurrection for the ''Sisters of Saint Dorothy''!",
"The Congregation grew steadily, with the assistance of Fr.",
"Frassinetti and Fr.",
"Sturla, while learning to be autonomous and stand on its own.",
"It was during this time that the Institute became closer to the Jesuits, availing of their spiritual guidance and learning.",
"On May 1841, it was decided to open a house in Rome, the center of Christianity, where Paola moved along with two companions.",
"While she separated physically from her brother Fr.",
"Joseph, their mutual affection and esteem remained always alive, as we can see from the many letters they exchanged.Because of her heroic generosity and exemplary zeal, Paola Frassinetti was beatified on June 8, 1930 by Pius XI, and canonized on March 11, 1984 by John Paul II."

"The Prior of Santa Sabina",
"On May 1839, the chancery anounced a competition for the nomination of the new parish priest ''of Santa Sabina'', a parish located in the historical center of Genoa, behind the port, in a predominantly working-class neighborhood.",
"The church of Santa Sabina dated back to the sixth century, and had been destroyed by the Saracens at the beginning of the tenth century.",
"The Benedictines, who rebuilt it a hundred years later on a higher ground, took care of it until the seventeenth century, when it passed under the diocesan clergy, with the title of ''Priory''.Pressured by his friends, Fr.",
"Joseph took part in the competition and, after winning the post, was appointed as ''Prior of Santa Sabina'' on June 1, 1839.With his typical pastoral zeal, he took care on all aspects of the parish life; in particular, of the Christian formation: such as preaching, catechesis, and spiritual direction.",
"Every day, he was assiduous in the confessional, which he considered a very important part of his apostolate.",
"In time, his fame as confessor and spiritual director spread throughout Genoa, and he became a point of reference for many souls thirsting for God.Great attention was paid to almsgiving and spiritual charity.",
"At first, with great prudence, he would ascertain that the requests for financial help stemmed from real needs; then, with the help of Divine Providence, he provided personally, and discreetly, in granting help.",
"In doing so, he would also endeavor to give spiritual assistance, with paternal exhortations and wise advice.",
"His priority in giving charities were the persons in moral danger; who he attempted to bring back to the right path.The Prior celebrated the divine liturgy with precision and decorum.",
"Little by little, he introduced new devotions: such as \"The Month of May\" and \"The Via Matris\", which attracted an increasing number of faithful.",
"The church building itself was restored and embellished.In line with his personality, Fr.",
"Joseph sought for the assistance of fellow workers in the vineyard of the Lord, transforming his parish into a spiritual family.",
"At first, he welcomed his two brothers priests, Fr.",
"Giovanni and Fr.",
"Raffaele, who generously supported him in his pastoral service.",
"Later on, he welcomed his friend Fr.",
"Luigi Sturla, who had returned in 1857 from his mission in Aden in Africa; and also Fr.",
"Giacinto Bianchi, a zealous priest from Lombardy, who had been mistrusted in his diocese, but is now a candidate for the glory of the altars.",
"In this priestly community, also young seminarians in need of financial assistance or spiritual encouragement were hosted from time to time.",
"Among them was Domenico Fassiolo, who would become parish priest of Arenzano and the first biographer of our Prior.",
"He also hosted in the rectory his father Gianbattista, as he was already old and in need of assistance.One of the cornerstones of Frassinetti's pastoral action was the promotion of Catholic associations and the enhancement of the lay apostolate.",
"This was a pastoral intuition that, along with others, proved to be an anticipation of the orientations of the Second Vatican Council.",
"These associations made it possible to mobilize the faithful around specific goals, and to create a more enduring spiritual relationship with the laity.The direct pastoral activity was complemented with the publishing apostolate: he wrote extensively, with the intent of being understood by the people of every walk of life.",
"Having noticed the powerful influence of the agnostic and anticlerical press on the morality and customs of society, he wanted to counterbalance with Catholic publications accessible to the masses.For this reason, he published his works in paperback editions, and renounced to any copyrights, to make them cheaper.",
"Normally, his publications responded to a concrete need of the life of the Church, and were written in a clear and pleasant manner.",
"• Fr.",
"Frassinetti published over one hundred works: some were agile and brief, being a support for the pastoral ministry; others were small treatises, for the development of the spiritual life of the faithful; and still others were systematic works, generally addressed for their spiritual and deep formation of the clergy."
],
[
"Exile and return",
"Fr.",
"Joseph Frassinetti was convinced that priests were primarily called to serve in their religious ministry; thus he did not engage into the political issues of his age.It was the time of the \"Italian Resurgence\" (''Risorgimento''), and the aspirations for national independence and unity, mostly fueled by liberal ideals, were boiling throughout Europe.",
"The Italian situation was even more complex, due to the presence of the Papacy and the existence of ''The State of the Church''.Some politicians suggested to reconcile national and constitutional ideals with the existence o''f The State of the Church'': among them, was the Abbot Vincenzo Gioberti.",
"In his ''Neo-Guelph proposal'', he clashed with the Society of Jesus that, according to him, had meddled extensively into politics after a promising and glorious beginning, becoming the main cause of the ills of the Church and society.The ''Congregation of Blessed Leonardo'', which was by nature pro-Vatican and anti-Jansenist, had friendly relations with the Jesuits, and was unwillingly involved in the controversy.",
"Thus in 1846, in response to the \"Prolegomena\" of Gioberti, Fr.",
"Frassinetti wrote the, \"Essay on Dialectics and Religion by Vincenzo Gioberti\" (''Saggio sulla dialettica e la religione di Vincenzo Gioberti'').",
"The essay, without examining the philosophy of Gioberti in its entirety, simply defended the Jesuits; rebuking any criticism against them with a lively and ironic style.",
"Gioberti, for his part, counteracted with another writing, \"The Modern Jesuit\" (''Il Gesuita moderno''), which triggered a real persecution against the Jesuits and their supporters, mocked as \"Jesuitish\" (''Gesuitanti'').",
"Among them, were included the members of the ''Congregation of Blessed Leonardo'' and the ''Institute of Saint Dorothy''.",
"On March 1848, Fr.",
"Luigi Sturla was ordered to leave Genoa for Rome.",
"Whence, he was sent by the ''Congregatio de Propaganda Fide'', headed by Cardinal Guglielmo Massaia, as a missionary to Aden, in Ethiopia, where he zealously served until 1857.The other leaders of the Congregation were not ordered to leave but, considering the dangerous situation, they prudently abandoned the city of Genoa and went into self-inflicted exile.",
"Fr.",
"Frassinetti took refuge first with his friend, Fr.",
"Angelo Remondini; and then with Fr.",
"Gerolamo Campanella in San Cipriano in the Polcevera Valley.",
"He left the Parish of Santa Sabina to the loving care of his brothers, with whom he maintained, as much as possible, an intense written correspondence.Making the best of the situation, our Prior accepted the exile in the light of God's Providence, and devoted himself intensely to study and prayer.",
"It was during this period that he began to write his masterpiece, \"The Moral Theology of St. Alphonsus\" (''La Teologia Morale di San Alfonso''), on which he worked for about eighteen years.",
"Moreover, he immersed himself in the reading of the Carmelite mystics - St. Teresa of Avila and St. John of the Cross, whose spirituality he adopted as his own.",
"Thus, his trial and exile became a precious time for spiritual deepening and mystical recollection.In the spring of 1849, the Prior was able to return to Santa Sabina, where he resumed his apostolic work, alternating the active ministry for his flock with the publishing apostolate for the whole of Italy, and beyond.After due consultation with his friends, he decided not to resurrect the ''Congregation of Blessed Leonardo'', and sought new forms of apostolate, more appropriate to the new social and historical situation.",
"It was thus that he promoted the \"Pious Association for the Preservation and Increase of the Faith\" (''Pia Associazione per la conservazione e l'incremento della Fede''), with the full support of the new Archbishop of Genoa, Monsignor Andrea Charvaz.",
"The Association can be considered an anticipation of the so-called ''Catholic Action Movement''.In 1854, together with Fr.",
"Salvatore Magnasco, then a Canon of the Archdiocese of Genoa, and a few other friends, he laid the foundations for the \"Workers' Mutual Aid Society\" (''Società Operaia di Mutuo Soc-corso''), named after Saint John the Baptist, which was the first of its kind in Italy.",
"The Society provided mutual assistance among workers in case of illness and calamity, and fostered their religious and social promotion.In this manner, Fr.",
"Frassinetti demonstrated his constant commitment in spreading the Kingdom of God, with ever new and creative forms, in accordance with the changing needs of the Church."

[
"The \"Consecration in the World\"",
"A particular aspect of Fr.",
"Joseph's pastoral commitment was the promotion of the so-called, ''Consecrated Men and Women in the World''; that is, persons willing to live the evangelical counsels of poverty, chastity and obedience, while remaining in their family and occupation.It all began at the time when Fr.",
"Domenico Pestarino, a friend of Fr.",
"Frassinetti, was rendering his pastoral service in Mornese, a town of the Monferrato, part of the Diocese of Acqui Terme.",
"Among his penitents was Angela Maccagno, a young woman from a wealthy family, who would later achieve the title of teacher.",
"Her desire was to consecrate her life to God while remaining with her family.",
"Encouraged by Fr.",
"Pestarino, she started searching for companions animated by the same ideal, and little by little an enthusiastic group was formed.",
"In 1853, Fr.",
"Pestarino suggested Angela to write a draft of the Rules, and to have them sent to Fr.",
"Frassinetti in Genoa for evaluation.The Prior, busy with so many commitments, at first neglected the matter; but Angela did not give up, and repeated her request anew.",
"After carefully examining the draft, Fr.",
"Joseph became convinced that their intuition was a new charism of the Spirit for the present times, and proposed a more organic and complete arrangement of the articles.",
"The new Institute officially began in December 1855, under the name of \"Pious Union of the Daughters of Holy Mary Immaculate\" (''Pia Unione delle Figlie di Santa Maria Immacolata''): it included Angela and five other com-panions, among whom was Maria Domenica Mazzarello - the future co-foundress of the ''Daughters of Mary Help of Christians''.The following summer, that Pious Union was established in the Parish of Santa Sabina; and by 1859 it had spread in a surprising way throughout Italy.",
"Fr.",
"Frassinetti, seeing the good apostolic results of these consecrated young women, took the experience to heart; offering them his precious talents as pastor, spiritual director, writer, and expert in juridical matters.",
"For them, he wrote in 1859 \"The Nun at Home\" ''(La Monaca in casa''), a manual of spirituality for consecrated women who live in their families.",
"In appendix, he published the \"Rules of the Daughters of Mary\" (''Regole delle Figlie di Maria''), thus providing a concrete example of secular consecration in a communitarian style, intended for the active apostolate and the sanctification of people.",
"Fr.",
"Joseph also wrote two biographies of consecrated women in the world: that of \"Rosa Cordone\" and of \"Rosina Pedemonte\".",
"The booklets were quite successful, and were also reprinted in the \"Catholic Readings\" (''Letture Cattoliche'') published by Don Bosco.It happened that a young man from the Parish of Santa Sabina, inspired by the reading of one of these biographies, proposed to Fr.",
"Frassinetti the secular consecration of men as well.",
"At first, our Prior encouraged him to find some companions; then, in between November 1860 and the following year, he laid the foundations for the \"Pious Union of the Sons of Holy Mary Immaculate\" (''Pia Unione dei Figli di Santa Maria Immacolata''), for which he composed the Rules as well.",
"In the following years, the pious union grew steadily in Genoa and nearby places, including Mornese, reaching over fifty members.In his book, \"The Religious in the World''' (Il Religioso al secolo''), which was the male counterpart of \"The Nun at Home\" (''La Monaca in casa''), Fr.",
"Frassinetti indicated the spiritual path for consecrated men who continued living in the world.",
"He proposed to them a spirituality suited for the secular condition and incarnated in the reality of daily life; but at the same time, oriented to an ideal of elevated and generous sanctity.In the pastoral care of the ''Consecrated in the World'', Fr.",
"Frassinetti sought the assistance of capable friends and collaborators, such as Fr.",
"Luigi Sturla, his brother Fr.",
"Raffaele, and Fr.",
"Giacinto Bianchi.A further step was made when Virginia Avio established the \"Houses of Common Life\" (''Case di Vita Commune''), in Genoa, Mornese - where Maria Domenica Mazzarello distinguished herself, and elsewhere in Italy.",
"They were places of reference for the consecrated women who remained at home; as well as centers of Christian and professional formation for girls, especially those most neglected.This impressive development of the ''Consecrated in the World'', both male and female, was a consolation for Fr.",
"Frassinetti, who became their spiritual director.",
"It was also a challenge, for the many problems it created - including the lack of a clear canonical identity in the Church.Fr.",
"Frassinetti was delighted when Pius IX, on July 11, 1861, extended the Mass and the Office of Saint Angela Merici to the entire Catholic Church, proposing her as a contemplative living in the world, and as the foundress of an organization of consecrated seculars, the so-called, ''Society of Saint Ursula''.",
"Seeing the similarity of intent, our Prior understood that the ''Daughters of Holy Mary Immaculate'' were spiritually linked to the charism of St. Angela Merici.",
"In 1863, with the approval of Angela Maccagno, and the blessing of Fr.",
"Pestarino, he wrote the \"Rule of the New Ursulines, Daughters of Holy Mary Immaculate, under the protection of Saint Ursula and Saint Angela Merici\" (''Regola delle Nuove Orsoline, Figlie di Santa Maria Immacolata, sotto la protezione di Sant'Orsola e Sant'Angela Merici''), which provided clear guidelines for the associates scattered all around Italy.At the same time, Fr.",
"Frassinetti conceived the idea of a Petition to the Pope, proposing to extend to this new Pious Union the same privileges that the Holy See in 1554 had granted to the Society of Saint Ursula.",
"The petition, however, remained unanswered for several reasons, especially the untimely death of Fr.",
"Frassinetti in 1868.The male Pious Union did not survive long after the death of the Prior; while the female one had varied outputs.",
"Notably, some of the consecrated women continued in the footprints of Fr.",
"Frassinetti, and carried out their apostolate until the threshold of the Second Vatican Council.We are pleased to report that the contemporary studies on the subject agree in considering Fr.",
"Joseph Frassinetti as one of the most far-sighted precursors of today's Secular Institutes."

[
"Frassinetti's Spirituality",
"Fr.",
"Frassinetti was the great apostle of the ''Universal Call to Holiness'', following on the footsteps of St. Francis de Sales and of St. Alphonsus Maria de Liguori.",
"In his books, \"The Consolation of the Devout Soul''\" (Il conforto dell'anima divota''), and, \"The Art of Becoming a Saint\" (''L' arte di farsi santi''), he clarified that every faithful is called to holiness, which is in itself beautiful, useful, and easy to attain.",
"Following the theology of St. Thomas Aquinas, he affirmed that by accepting God's grace with faith, every Christian may not only obtain the ''Simple Holiness'', which is the justification necessary for salvation, but also the ''Perfected Holiness'', which is a close friendship with God.",
"To achieve it, we do not need extraordinary gifts, ecstatic visions, or admirable works, which we read about in the lives of the canonized saints - that are granted by God only to a few.",
"On the contrary, to reach holiness it is sufficient to do good and avoid evil, in accordance with God's Will; and this is within our capacity - it is understood, always with the help of God's Grace.In concrete terms, it is necessary to carry out our duties, namely: to practice the Ten Commandments and the Precepts of the Church; as well as the moral and civil commitments of our social condition.",
"At the same time, we need to avoid any kind of venial or mortal sin, of which we are fully aware.",
"Moreover, we have to accomplish some extra good works in accordance with our possibilities.",
"Since God himself desires our holiness, and in Christ he offers us the means, every Christian can fulfill this vocation.",
"This theme would be developed by the Second Vatican Council in the Chapter V of \"Lumen Gentium\".",
"Thus, the way to holiness is open to all believers, of whatever social conditions or state in life.According to Fr.",
"Frassinetti, the starting point of the path to holiness is the desire for it, without which it is impossible to proceed.",
"This desire must be nurtured with great care, to the point of \"offering ourself to God\", that is, to entrust to him all of our being and possessions.",
"By doing so, we shall receive God's holiness in accordance with his loving Will.",
"It is good to repeat frequently this Offering, in order to make it ever more alive in our personal life.In order to realize the friendship with God, it is necessary our correspondence to good inspirations and the assistance of a Spiritual Director, who is particularly needed in dubious situations.",
"Fr.",
"Frassinetti pointed to St. Philip Neri as an example of a good spiritual director, especially for his wholistic approach and joyful manners.This ''Frassinetti Method'' proposes to develop in every Christian the seed of the divine life he has received in Baptism, focusing on the spiritual development in the real life.Among the most useful means for growing constantly in the spiritual life, drawing on the doctrine of St. Teresa of Avila and the Carmelite school, are prayer and spiritual friendships.",
"In connection with this, Fr.",
"Frassinetti wrote \"The Pater Noster of St. Teresa of Avila - Treatise on Prayer\" (''Il Pater Noster di Santa Teresa d'Avila - Trattato sulla preghiera''), and \"The Spiritual friendships\" (''Amicizie spirituali'') - works that are still read today with great benefit.The principal means for growing in Grace, however, is the one given to us by Jesus himself: the ''Holy Mass''.",
"Fr.",
"Frassinetti had a great love for this sacrament, in which Jesus continues to be present among us.",
"He was a most zealous promoter of frequent and daily Communion - provided the communicant is in the state of Grace and free of mortal sin.",
"On this regard, he wrote a bestseller book, translated in several European languages: \"The Banquet of Divine Love''\" (Il Convito del divino amore''-1867), which happened to be his last publication.The Prior was also a promoter of the evangelical counsels of poverty, chastity, and obedience; and, in particular, of celibacy.We cannot conclude this chapter on Fr.",
"Frassinetti's spirituality without mentioning his Marian devotion, which, since childhood, permeated his piety and doctrine, as well as preaching and pastoral ministry.",
"Dozens of his publications, novenas, and associations, were in reference to the Mother of God, especially venerated under the titles of ''Immaculate'' and ''Our Lady of Sorrows''.The spirituality of Fr.",
"Frassinetti is therefore Ecclesial, Eucharistic, and Marian; and rooted in the universal vocation to holiness.",
"It is not surprising that St. Giovanni Bosco used to say: \"Fr.",
"Frassinetti is my author\"."
],
[
"Frassinetti's last years and his legacy",
"The last years of our Prior were filled with pastoral and intellectual activities.",
"Two more important writings came to light: \"The Manual of the New Parish Priest\" (''Il Manuale pratico del parroco novello''-1863), in which he shared his thirty years of pastoral experience; and \"The Compendium of the Moral Theology of St. Alphonsus Maria de' Liguori\" (''Il Compendio della Teologia morale di Sant'Al-fonso Maria de' Liguori''-1865-1866), which was a brilliant synthesis of the morals of the famous Saint from Naples.",
"The \"Compendium\", which was adopted as manual of Moral Theology in many seminaries, was translated in several languages, and it is considered Frassinettis masterpiece.Alongside his concern for the ''Consecrated in the world'', Fr.",
"Frassinetti was more and more passionate about priestly vocations.",
"After consulting with Canon Almerico Guerra, a professor in Lucca, he published his vocational ideas and proposals in a pamphlet en-titled: \"On the Insufficiency of Vocations to the Ecclesiastical State\" (''Sulla deficienza delle vocazioni allo stato ecclesiastico''-1867).He succeeded also in mobilizing the ''Sons of Holy Mary Immaculate'' for the vocational apostolate; and in the fall of 1865, he launched the idea of a ''House of Common Life'' for poor boys with a vocation to the priesthood.",
"Three young men responded to the call, and began living together in the rectory of Santa Sabina.",
"It was the 14th of January 1866, the Sunday dedicated in Genoa to ''Our Lady, Mother of Divine Providence''.",
"The small community grew steadily under the spiritual guidance of Fr.",
"Frassinetti and the direction of Pietro Olivari, a humble man of strong faith, and a talented printer.",
"The ''Sons of Holy Mary Immaculate of Common Life'' were still part of the ''Religious in the World'', but they constituted the most qualified element of it.However, such a promising beginnings were severely tested by the unexpected death of the Holy Prior.Since the last days of December 1867, Fr.",
"Joseph felt the symptoms of a fulminating pneumonia, which caused his death, on January 2, 1868.He died serene, comforted by the Christian sacraments, after kissing the medal of the Immaculate Conception, that he wore at his neck since childhood.",
"He left a void among the parishioners and the poor, and especially among the ''Daughters and Sons of Holy Mary Immaculate''.His legacy was the pastoral care for sanctification of the Christian people, and the generous passion for the promotion of priestly vocations.",
"We are still amazed by the network of friendships he was able to establish, all directed to promoting holiness, for the glory of God and the salvation of souls.The community of the ''Sons of Holy Mary Immaculate of Common Life'', after a moment of bewilderment, resumed its path, and found in Fr.",
"Antonio Piccardo (Genoa Voltri 1844-Rome 1925) a paternal and wise guide, who gave continuity to Frassinetti's project, creating the \"Pious Work of the Sons of Holy Mary Immaculate\" (''Pia Opera dei Figli di Santa Maria Immacolata'').",
"This institution, after working hard for the promotion of diocesan and missionary vocations, was transformed by Fr.",
"Piccardo and his companions into the ''Congregation of the Sons of Holy Mary Immaculate''.",
"It was highly appreciated and encouraged by St. Pius X who, on May 21, 1904, granted the \"Decretum Laudis\", and made it a Pontifical Congregation.Pope Saint Pius X always had a paternal affection for the Congregation of the SHMI, and graciously granted the Pontifical Approval.Fr.",
"Piccardo also edited the \"Opera Omnia\" in 13 volumes of the published and unpublished works of Fr.",
"Joseph Frassinetti, with the Poliglotta Vaticana (1906-1912).",
"In 1916, he promoted the Process of Beatification in the Diocese of Genoa, becoming also its first Postulator.Ever since, the Congregation of the ''Sons of Holy Mary Immaculate'' is committed to promoting in the Church the legacy of Fr.",
"Joseph Frassinetti, in accordance with his Marian, vocational, and youth-educational charism.",
"It is currently present in Italy, Argentina, Chile, the Philippines, Mexico and Poland.",
"It is a small but precious ecclesial reality, that bears witness to the multifaceted action of the Holy Spirit in the people of God.Since 1965, there has existed in Sardinia an Institute of consecrated women, born from the inspiration of Father Joseph Battistella SHMI, called \"Missionary Daughters of Holy Mary Immaculate\" (''Missionarie Figlie di Santa Maria Immacolata''-MFSMI).",
"It is a public association of diocesan right, and a secular institute in formation, which follows the spirituality of Fr.",
"Frassinetti, and intends to promote, especially among the young people, the calling to virginity and to vocations of special consecration.On May 14, 1991, the Church has recognized the heroic virtues of Fr.",
"Joseph Frassinetti, declaring him ''Venerable''.",
"A miracle is now need for his Beatification, as required by the ''Dicastery for the Causes of Saints''.We therefore invite all those who are convinced of the sanctity of the Prior of Santa Sabina to pray with perseverance for his elevation to the glory of the altars."

"It is gaining popularity among practitioners due to its link with Sobol’ sensitivity indices and easiness of implementation.",
"The computational time required for DGSM is usually much less than that needed for estimating Sobol’ sensitivity indices."
],
[
"Overview",
"The variance-based method of Sobol’ sensitivity indices is one of the most efficient and popular global sensitivity analysis techniques.",
"It provides information on the importance of different subsets of input variables to the output variance.",
"However, the direct implementation of variance-based global sensitivity analysis measures can be time-consuming and impractical for models with high dimensionality.DGSM is based on averaging of local derivatives using Monte Carlo or Quasi Monte Carlo sampling methods.",
"Unlike the Morris method, which uses finite differences to calculate elementary effects with increments comparable to the variable uncertainty ranges, DGSM evaluates strict local derivatives with smaller increments.",
"Moreover, derivatives are calculated at randomly or quasi-randomly selected points within the full range of uncertainty, rather than points from a fixed grid.",
"Consequently, DGSM is a more accurate technique than the Morris method.",
"In was suggested as a practical tool in, while the theory and the link between DGSM and Sobol' senstitivity indices was developed in,.",
"Other important developments were given in,,.DGSM encompasses upper and lower bounds on the values of Sobol’ total sensitivity indices, offering a comprehensive understanding of the model's behavior.",
"This approach has gained popularity due to its link with Sobol’ sensitivity indices and its ease of implementation.",
"One of the key advantages of DGSM is its relatively lower computational time compared to estimating Sobol’ sensitivity indices, making it a practical choice for sensitivity analysis in high-dimensional models.DGSM is closely related to the active subspace method, providing a deeper understanding of the model's behavior and reducing computational costs.",
"The relationship between the activity scores of the active subspace method and DGSM has been a subject of interest, further highlighting the utility of DGSM in practical applications.The numerical efficiency of the DGSM method can be improved by using automatic differentiation for calculations as was shown in.",
"However, the number of required function evaluations still remains to be proportional to the number of inputs.",
"This dependence can be greatly reduced using an approach based on algorithmic differentiation in the adjoint (reverse) mode,.",
"It allows estimating all derivatives at a cost at most 4-6 times of that for evaluating theoriginal function."

"It was founded in 2016, and is a member of the International Ski and Snowboard Federation, the International Ski Mountaineering Federation, the International Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation, the International Biathlon Union, and the International Luge Federation."
],
[
"History",
"As a tropical country where it never snows, Thailand's climate is not suited for winter sports.",
"However, skiing and snowboarding is pursued by some Thais living or travelling overseas.",
"The association was founded as a non-sanctioned body in January 2016 by a group of such enthusiasts, with Piyasvasti Amranand—better known as an energy-policy technocrat—as its first president.",
"Sueb Tarasiri serves as its secretary-general.Although their original goal was simply to promote the sports among Thais, the association soon received enquiries about representation in international competitions, and its activities were expanded in order to serve as a governing body.",
"The association was registered with the Sports Authority of Thailand (SAT) as a national sports association in September 2016, after working to have the sports recognized by the SAT, which also enabled it to receive sports funding and tax-deductible sponsorships.Thailand had previously participated in the Winter Olympics, with a skier first representing the country in 2002, but those applications were made directly by the athletes themselves via the National Olympic Committee, as the country did not then have a recognized governing body for the sport.",
"The SSAT took over responsibility for fielding the skiing national team, first for the 2017 Asian Winter Games in Hokkaido, then the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang.The association's first teams consisted of half-Thai dual nationals who grew up overseas.",
"In response to criticism of the fact, the SSAT launched a programme to create home-grown snow-sport athletes.",
"In 2018, it began holding roller-skiing events—as a warm-weather alternative to cross-country skiing—in several provinces, including Chumphon, where a local roller-skiing movement already existed thanks to promotion by Norwegian expatriate Karl Fred Kristensen.",
"It actively promoted the sport, which saw increasing participation and was introduced as a discipline in the 47th National Games in 2022.From its roller-skiing competitions, the SSAT recruited young athletes to train for the Winter Youth Olympics, and fielded a cross-country and alpine skiing team of four at Lausanne 2020, Thailand's first time at the games.",
"For Gangwon 2024, Thailand, along with several other countries without snow, also received assistance from host country South Korea's New Horizons programme, which provided training facilities and coaching in the lead-up to the games.",
"The SSAT fielded 18 athletes in 2024, including debuts in biathlon, bobsleigh, freestyle skiing, luge, skeleton and snowboarding.",
"Agnese Campeol, who began training in 2022 with the SSAT, won silver in the women's monobob event—the first medal for Thailand in the winter edition of either the Olympics or Youth Olympics."

"Gatilok"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''''Gatilok''''' (Khmer: គតិលោក ឬ ច្បាប់ទូន្មានខ្លួន) or '''''Kotelok''''' is a collection of 112 folktales in Khmer language, stories and poems collected by Suttantaprija Ind known as Achar Ind, a notorious Khmer intellectual during the French protectorate of Cambodia.",
"Written at the beginning of the 20th century as a guide as to how to behave in society, it has become a classic of Khmer literature."
],
[
"Title",
"\"Gatiloka\", which is translated as \"The Ways of the World\", is traditionally a Pali term that refers to the types of existence into which men and women can reincarnate within the divine, human, animal and hell worlds.",
"For Ind, this term \"is reinterpreted as the 'ways' of acting or behaving in the immediate present\".",
"The title is also followed by a subtitle, ''Law for how to behave oneself,'' explaining the content of the work."
],
[
"Content",
"In order to compose the ''Gatilok'', Achar Ind selected from either Khmer sources, Indian sources imported through Thailand such as the ''Jataka'', the ''Panchatantra'' or the ''Hitopadesha'', or French literature such as in ''Les Fables de Lafontaine'' in what Khmer scholar Khing Hoc Dy considers an \"elegant symbiosis of khmer and foreign culture\".Some stories included in the ''Gatilok'' have allowed stories from the ''Trai Bhet'', an outdated Khmer cosmogony, to survive in mainstream classic literature.",
"One such story recounts the corrupt desire of a mother of a ''bodhisattva'' to kill her son out of lust for one of his students; warned by his student, the ''bodhisattva'' places a dummy made from bananas in his bed and catches his evil mother red-handed, who dies of shame, before being cremated, as if she was burnt by the fire of her passions."
],
[
"History",
"''Gatilok'' was composed between 1914 and 1921, a period during which Achar Ind was living in Phnom Penh.=== A listening-to newspaper gazette ===Achar Ind's famous collection of traditional stories, ''Gatilok'', was one of the first examples of a collection written for serialization in a periodical in modern Khmer literature.",
"Although the periodical had fairly low circulation figures, it became common for monks to read out sections during sermons and other public events, as Khmer people would enjoy this new form of literature as \"listening to newspapers\" (''sdap-kaset'').=== A lasting literary genre ===''Gatilok'', in its subtitle \"Law for how to behave oneself\", had a lasting influence on Cambodian literature and society so much so that more than one palimpsest was published thereafter.",
"While Khmer moral treatises known as ''tunmeay'' used to describe a \"Gargantuan cosmogony\", Achar Ind updated the genre and made it modern and appealing to Khmer readers.",
"In the wake of the ''Sangkum'' era, writers such as Khun Srun wrote updated guidelines with the same title."
],
[
"Analysis",
"=== A lesson of court ''étiquette'' ===Achar Ind wrote fables and fairy tales in which he recorded the experiences he gained in the civil service and at court.",
"As a vernacular Theravada Buddhist text, it relates more to the \"little\" Buddhist tradition.",
"The ''Gatilok'' is concerned with ''sâtisampajania'', the practical application of moral judgment.",
"The word ''sâtisampajania'' is composed of ''sati'', meaning \"mindfulness and clarity\", and ''sampajañña'', meaning \"discrimination\" or \"attention\" or \"awareness\".In the context of a fast-changing urban society in Cambodian cities influenced by the Western world and the modernization of the royal Khmer court, the main question asked by this series of narratives could be condensed as: \"how to behave as good Khmer Buddhists and moral persons, and simultaneously, how to purify themselves in the context of everyday life in a modernizing world\"?",
"To do this, Khmer teachers innovated through their translation and teaching methods which also encourage the dissemination of knowledge on a larger scale, particularly to lay people, through printed rather than handwritten textual productions.",
"In the ''Gatilok'' of Ind, this methodology is based on Buddhist literary conventions that advocate storytelling as a mode of critical reflection.",
"Indeed, after having presented the teachings of the Buddha by selecting extracts from traditional texts, a commentary for the attention of the reader is written in the form of narration (sometimes also in prose or verse) with the aim of initiating reflection and guide him in analyzing the meaning of the previous extract.",
"This is why Hansen conceives of ''Gatilok'' as a kind of \"moral laboratory\", where the reader is called to apply his critical reflections to his own life.=== A satire of Khmer society ===Khmer writer Tauch Chhuong explains how the ''Gatilok'', one of the major works of Ind, meticulously describes life in Battambang during the era of Governor Kathathan Chhum.",
"Ind is then very well known in the region.",
"The local intelligentsia as well as ordinary Cambodians often come to listen to him speak, and his writings are widely circulated.",
"Hansen explains that in addition to outlining the contours of moral conduct applicable to lay people, Gatilok is intended to be a means for Ind to offer social criticism.",
"For example, Achar Ind criticizes the cult of various Brahmanical deities such as the sacred cow (''Preah Ko'') and grandmother Daeb (''yày daeb''), arguing that \"since we are lay followers of the religion of the Buddha it is not right to venerate these statues.",
"\"=== A pamphlet against the French occupation ===Beyond a self-critique, some have read between the lines of the fables of the ''Gatilok'', and found a nationalist pamphlet, in veiled opposition against the French protectorate.",
"This can be seen through the recourse of the theme of the anti-opium crusade in parallel of the Opium Wars in China, which eventually took on an anti-French flavor also in Cambodia.",
"The theme is taken up in Ind's famous collection of stories, ''Gatilok'', particularly in the tale of the \"Oknya who smoked opium who used his influence to harm inhabitants of the region\"."

"The others are graduated, ventricose and smooth.",
"They are much impressed at the sutures.",
"The shell is longitudinally obliquely ribbed.",
"The ribs are indistinct and superficial.",
"They disappear completely at the base and are spirally striated everywhere.",
"The aperture is round and continuous, with a thin peristoma.",
"The columella is slightly excavated.This is an inflated, gradately-whorled ''Alvania'' of great tenuity, being evidently an abyssal species.",
"It differs from ''Benthonellania charope'' (Melvill & Standen, 1901) altogetlier in sculpture, and also from ''Rissoa versoverana'', both these being inhabitants of the same seas.",
"This last is a much more solidly constructed shell, more compact, of brown colour, or white flecked with brown, two forms occurring, one of which, owing to its obese body whorl, the more approximates ''Alvania townsendi''"

"War on Gotland (1448–1449)"
],
[
"Introduction",
"The '''War on Gotland (1448–1449)''' was an invasion of Gotland by Charles VIII in 1448."
],
[
"Background",
"When Charles VIII was elected king in 1448, the question of Gotland became all the more evident.",
"Eric of Pomerania, who was previously king of the Kalmar Union, had been exiled to the island, and was now ruling it, which, according to the Swedes, rightfully belonged to Sweden.",
"Eric had also previously taken 7 ships from Stockholm loaded with iron, copper, butter, and hides that were originally going to the Hanseatic states, which made Charles want to take revenge on him."
],
[
"The Invasion",
"On 29 July 1448, a Swedish force of 2,000 landed on Gotland under the command of Magnus Gren, the commander of Åbo castle, and Birger Trolle.",
"Fortunately for the Swedes, the Gutes gave them their support.",
"According to the Rim Chronicle, the Swedish fleet sailed towards Flensviken, at which Eric managed to repulse the Swedish landing 3 times.",
"In mid-August, the Gotland countryside was fully occupied by the Swedes, Visby was also quickly surrounded by Magnus Gren and the Swedish fleet blockaded all shipments.",
"On the night of 4 December, the Swedes lead a successful storm of Visby's wall; the majority of the Swedish force managed to climb the walls before the city's alarm was sounded.",
"The storm resulted in Eric having to retreat to Visby's fortress, Visborg.",
"His situation in Visborg was not good and resulted in him quickly engaging in negotiations, which were that he was to give up Gotland and Visborg in exchange for Borgholm, Öland, and monetary compensation."
],
[
"Aftermath",
"After the agreement was signed with Eric, Birger sailed back to Sweden in order to inform the king of it, but he was promptly sent back in order to make the Gutes swear allegiance to the king.",
"Eric was invited to the Swedish lords to celebrate New Year's Eve, something that led him to stop the Danish ransom of Visborg, and on New Year's morning, he set fire to the closer parts of the city where the Swedes were quartered.",
"In January 1449, the Gutes formally pledged their allegiance to Charles with the justification that Gotland \"formerly belonged to Sweden's crown by right, according to what our chronicle clearly proves, and certificates\".The Swedish invasion of Gotland was not received well in Denmark, and the Danish king had secretly given Eric a better offer, namely three Danish castles on Falster and Lolland and 10,000 guilders in exchange for Visborg.",
"In April, the Danish king arrived on Gotland, and Eric promptly handed over Visborg and headed back to Denmark.",
"Charles proposed that the Gotland issue was to be solved judicially with representatives from the Hanseatic cities, and in the summer, the Swedes prepared to storm Visby.",
"However, nothing came of this, and Magnus Gren signed a truce with Olof Axelsson on 18 July.",
"Danish reinforcements to Gotland solidifed the fact that Gotland had been lost to the Danes.== References =="

"Together with the adjacent tribe of the ''Caprarienses'', whose members lived in the mountains named after them, the Abanni in circa 375 AD took part in the uprising of the usurper Firmus against the Roman Emperor Valentinian I.",
"Both tribes were defeated by the Roman general Theodosius.",
"After this success Theodosius is believed to have subsequently moved to Auzia.According to the German classical philologist and epigraphist Johannes Schmidt (1850–1894) the Abanni probably lived in the Roman province of ''Mauretania Sitifensis''.",
"The Roman historian Ammianus Marcellinus states that they settled not far from the Ethiopians, possibly on the edge of the Saharan Atlas mountain chain.",
"This localization seems to be confirmed by the Latin poet Claudian in a passage of his eulogy of the fourth consulate of Emperor Honorius.",
"Here it is narrated that Theodosius travelled through the Ethiopian desert and advanced as far as the Atlas mountains.",

"Bydgoszcz Plywood Factory"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Bydgoskie Zakłady Sklejek \"Sklejka-Multi\" SA''' (''Bydgoszcz Plywood Factory'') is a factory in Bydgoszcz, Poland.",
"One of the few plywood producers in Poland, it has been established in 1914."
],
[
"History",
"===Prussian period===The ancestor of company's of today's \"Sklejka-Multi\" was founded in 1914, under '''Ostdeutsche Sperrplattenwerke AG''' (), also called \"Oswa\".",
"The plant, located in the eastern industrial district of then Bromberg, covered an area of : it also comprised a storage warehouse on the Brda river, where the floated wood was matured.",
"Initially the production of wooden blockboards required only two hulling machines, a machine press and a drying plant.The establishment of \"Oswa\" was associated with the fast development of the wood industry in Bromberg, which culminated in 1906, when one third of all timber shipments towards the German Empire transited through the city.",
"As a matter of fact, at that time, 2100 people were working for this business in Bromberg (mainly in sawmills and woodworking workshops).Between 1890 and 1907, on the banks of the Brda river (near present day Brda's regatta track), there were up to 25 active sawmills, most of which were large plants owned by timber traders from Berlin.",
"The importance of the industry in the city massively influenced the development of wood-processing plants in the area (i.e.",
"furniture, boxes, boards, parquet, matches...)===Interwar period===With the end of World War I and the return of Bydgoszcz to the re-created Poland, the company -now Polish- underwent a rapid development.",
"New equipment was purchased and plywood production (80% of which was exported) now used non-dried wood (so called \"wet\" method).The Great Depression of the late 1920s constrained first a reduction of the activity, and then a complete suspension of the operations in 1930.In 1931, the facility was purchased by the shareholders of the company ''Fabryka Płyt Klejonych w Bydgoszczy'' (): this successful firm was the second largest plywood producer in Poland, exporting in the whole Europe (United Kingdom, Netherlands, Denmark, France, Belgium, Sweden and Italy).",
"After changing its name to '''Fabryka Dykt Klejonych „Multipli\"''', the plant continued to struggle with economic decline.After several attempts to put up the company for auction, it was once again bought by the Directorate of State Forests in 1935.The latter also built a modern sawmill in Siernieczek, today an eastern district of Bydgoszcz.",
"About 600 people were working there in three shifts.In 1936, the company had 7 husking machines, 5 presses, 3 pulse presses for drying hulls and 2 drying rooms.",
"Furthermore, the production panel was enriched with the so-called \"dry-resistant plywood\", made by incorporating casein glue and albumin.",
"The basic output still relied on wet-glued plywood and carpentry boards.",
"A significant part of the manufacturing was exported to several European and overseas countries.",
"At the eve of World War II, the '''Państwowa Fabryka Sklejek w Bydgoszczy''' (''Bydgoszcz State Plywood Factory''), employing more than 1000 people, was the largest in its domain in Poland, accounting for 10% of the domestic production.===German occupation===During German occupation, the factory moved under the management of the German administration.",
"It continued production aimed at satisfying the needs of the war effort.",
"Dry-resistant plywood and aviation plywood were manufactured for the benefit of the Luftwaffe.",
"The workforce at the time was approximately 400 people.===Polish People's Republic (1947-1989)===On February 15, 1945, the \"Regional Directorate of State Forests\" in Toruń () took over the management of the plant.",
"At the time, the raw material used was basic pine wood, provided by the \"Bydgoszcz District of State Forests\".",
"Furthermore, the timber supply flow was re-organized, in order to use rail transport instead of the waterway floating (on the Brda river).",
"In 1949, the production reached: * 10,000 m3 of dry-resistant plywood;* 24 m3 of aircraft-grade plywood;* 104 m3 of carpentry boards;* 774 m3 of waterproof plywood.The factory was then incorporated into the ''Union of the Board, Plywood and Match Industry'' based in Warsaw.",
"Employment grew steadily, from 531 people (1948) to 686 people including 356 women (1954).From 1954 onwards, the panel of production broaden, to cover:* waterproof wooden boards for shipbuilding industry;* pressed wood for the production of weaving shuttles;* plywood for formwork, bakelite and reinforced, self-lubricating pressed wood (1965);* TV canisters, slates and railway spacers, chairs, boards for agricultural purposes.In 1969, a pioneering production line was launched, using technology purchased in Finland.",
"In addition, the production of phenolic resin started.In 1970, the plywood manufacture merged with the ''Bydgoszcz Tanning Extract Factory'' () under the name of '''Plywood and Wood Plants Chemical Processing''' ().",
"The new company had two manufacturing sites (no.1 on Przemysłowa street and no.2 on Fordońska street) and was active in the wood as well as the chemical industries.",
"It specialized in the following productions:* tannins;* furfural, as the only producer in the country;* particle boards, fiberboards;* various plywoods (dry-resistant, waterproof, aeronautical grade, modeling - the only manufacturer in Poland); * formwork, pressed wood;* filter plates for the chemical industry;* glues (phenol-based and waterproof).The production variety and value elevated the Bydgoszcz factory to the first place in the plywood industry business in Poland.",
"Its products fed numerous other sectors: building engineering, furniture, shipbuilding, leather trade, chemical and heavy industries.In the early 1970s, a modernization occurred, in particular with the launch of a waterproof plywood production line.",
"Unfortunately, a large fire broke out on 31 January 1972, paralyzing the operations for 5 months: the flames, reaching high, entirely consumed the production hall.Despite this disaster, a year after the plywood output nearly reached 14,000 m3, of which 10% was exported.",
"Additionally, the workforce in this period attained its historical high, with more than 1,000 people.In 1976, an overhaul of the sites was carried out, encompassing the following:* construction of a tall oil processing department;* expansion of the phenol-resin glue production line;* production of charcoal from furfural manufacturing byproducts.===Third Polish Republic (since 1989)===In the 1990s, after the end of the communist rule, the ''Bydgoszcz Tanning Extract Factory'' was sold and the Plywood plant at Fordońska street transformed in 1994 into a joint-stock company, '''Bydgoskie Zakłady Sklejek \"Sklejka-Multi\" SA'''.",
"A year earlier, new equipments were purchased from Switzerland and Austria, enriching the product offer with soundproofing plywood, furniture strips and foils surfaced plywood.",
"Additional production device were acquired purchased in the following years: 2004, 2007 and 2014.In 2000, a boiler room for biomass was built, allowing the site to become heat-producing self-sufficient.",
"Thanks to EU funds (4 million Polish złoty), '''Sklejka-Multi SA''' bought in 2015 a new production line for wood peeling.In December 2018, a large investment program (25 million PLN) was initiated, enabling the acquisition of a six-shelf veneer dryer apparatus, the only one of its kind in Poland.",
"This machine replaced two older dryers, occupying less room space and performing tasks faster and more accurately."

"Products",
"'''Bydgoskie Zakłady Sklejek \"Sklejka-Multi\"''' is one of the largest Polish producers of plywood, manufactured from various deciduous trees (beech, birch, alder) and coniferous (pine)The company's main products are:* waterproof and dry-resistant plywood for general purposes;* waterproof technical plywood (formwork, bakelite, foiled, sound-proofing, fire-retardant);* furniture strips;* phenol foils;* phenolic resin glues.",

"Matej, Bishop of Makarska"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Matej''' was a Croatian and Bosnian-Herzegovinian prelate of the Catholic Church who served as the bishop of Makarska and also administered the Diocese of Duvno from 1375 to 1392."
],
[
"Biography",
"Marijan Žugaj writes that Matej was a Franciscan friar from Dubrovnik and that on 8 July 1348 Pope Clement VI appointed him as his chaplain.",
"On the other hand, Ivan Ostojić states that he was a Benedictine monk and that he was an abbot of the Benedictine abbey of St. Andrew on the isle of Svetac.",
"On 5 March 1375, he was present at a civil litigation regarding a house in Trogir as a nominated, but still unconfirmed bishop of ''Delmite''.",
"In another litigation from 1386 regarding the collection of the church tithe in Oriovica in the Diocese of Trogir, he was referred to as the bishop of Dalmatia.",
"Again, in another document from Trogir dated in 1390, Matej is referred to as the bishop of Makarska and ''Dalmia'' as well as the general vicar of Archbishop Andreas Gualdi of Split.",
"Ante Škegro states that it is unclear whether ''Dalmia'' refers to the Diocese of Duvno or another Dalmatia diocese since in a notary document of the Archdiocese of Split from 18 May 1392, he was mentioned as the bishop of Dalmatia.",
"In another document of the Archdiocese of Split from 1399, Matej is again mentioned as the bishop of Dalmatia and a co-plaintiff against a certain lessee of the revenues of the village of Srinjin.",
"Škegro states that the possibility that he was the bishop of Duvno from 1392 to 1412 is low since, during that time, the bishop of Duvno was Juraj Imoćanin.",
"However, Škegro states that Dalmatia could be another name for the Diocese of Makarska since the same title was used for the previous bishops of Makarska.",
"Thus, Škegro concludes that it is possible that Matej was the bishop of Makarska who administered the Diocese of Duvno until Juraj Imoćanin's appointment.Luke Wadding mentions that Juraj Imoćanin succeeded Matej as the bishop of Duvno after his death."

"Forward, Russia! (article)"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''\"Forward, Russia!\"'''",
"is an article by then President of Russia Dmitry Medvedev, published on September 10, 2009 on the news website Gazeta.Ru.",
"In the article, the president outlined his vision for the country's future development and problems to be solved.",
"According to Medvedev, the article is a summary of what he intended to say in his address to the Federal Assembly.",
"Medvedev said (during a meeting of the Valdai Discussion Club) that such an advanced announcement of content to be presented to the Assembly is unprecedented in modern Russia.The article was not received favorably among the opposition."
],
[
"Content",
"Dmitry Medvedev, noting that \"we have a chance to build a new, free, prosperous, strong Russia,\" named the five main directions of the country's modernization:He stressed the importance of developing an open, flexible political system and dynamic social structure, while advising caution:In his closing remarks, Medvedev warned of the existence of powers who will try to undermine development, such as corrupt officials and so called entrepreneurs who will try to drain value from the remains of Soviet industry as well as monopolize the nation's natural resources.",
"Medvedev also noted that the article should not be taken as “a detailed plan, it is an ideology.”"
],
[
"Reception",
"According to Vyacheslav Volodin, Secretary of the Presidium of the General Council of the United Russia party, Dmitry Medvedev's article is \"an example of a political message to society\" because it is not about macroeconomics or market indicators, but rather, about standard of living for citizens, as well as broaching change in the very relationship between citizens and the state of Russia.The Mayor of Moscow, Yuriy Luzhkov called the article \"a serious and powerful appeal to the whole of society\".",
"Sergey Morozov, Governor of Ulyanovsk Oblast, described Medvedev's article in positive terms, considering it to be an honest assessment of problems holding back Russia's development and as well as suggesting difficult yet realistic ways to modernize the nation's economy.Vitaly Ivanov, director of the Institute of Politics and Public Law, believes that the article puts propagandists of all sorts in their place, and that no revolutions are needed for Russia's future development.",
"Ivanov also said that the article shows that Medvedev is not a \"liberal\" of any sort.Analysts with the Carnegie Center in Moscow observed that modernization was the focus of the article, and that it was a powerful call to overcome corruption.=== Critique by opposition ===Remarks by Russian political opposition parties and individuals included the following:*Gennady Zyuganov, leader of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, was skeptical about the article, commenting that United Russia is not an independent political force but merely \"an extension of the presidential administration and the government... incapable of generating ideas, giving sober assessments, conducting a dialogue with society and the opposition, and adjusting its policy.\"",
"On the part of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, Zyuganov proposed \"the nationalization of the mineral resource base, strategic industries, the introduction of a progressive income tax scale and a state monopoly on alcohol-containing products\".",
"*Garry Kasparov expressed the opinion that \"a democratic and prosperous state can only be built without Putin and Medvedev\".",
"*Human rights activist Lev Ponomarev said \"This is a kind of liberalism under the protection of the Okhrana... liberalism, because it's kind of like a liberal's manifesto, on the one hand.",
"And on the other hand, there are phrases that betray the true meaning – this liberalism will operate under the control of the special services.\".",
"*Opposition leader Vladimir Milov wrote a commentary on the article titled “Stop, Russia!”"

"Coquelin Run"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Coquelin Run''' is a tributary of Rock Creek in Montgomery County, Maryland.",
"It rises in the Town of Chevy Chase, runs for about two miles while draining an area of 1,095 acres (1.71 square miles), and debouches in Rock Creek.",
"While the stream valley remains largely wooded, it has long been affected by nearby urban and suburban development, and its course has been followed for more than a century by railroads and rail trails."
],
[
"Course",
"Coquelin Run rises just east of Elm Street Park in the Town of Chevy Chase, apparently fed by nearby springs or groundwater.",
"It flows for several hundred yards through the back yards of properties along the north and west sides of Elm Street and Oakridge Lane.",
"Several storm sewers carry water into the stream from nearby Bethesda, particularly a 24\" cast-iron outfall just below and south of the Georgetown Branch Interim Trail.",
"On particularly rainy days, the stormwater can exceed the stream's normal flow.Along the west side of Maple Avenue, the stream runs into a large concrete conduit that ultimately carries it under East-West Highway.The stream emerges into a manmade channel north of East-West Highway, then crosses the Columbia Country Club, running through holes 1, 15, 16, 17, and 18 in the southern part of the club's golf course.",
"The stream then runs through a culvert under Connecticut Avenue, through a once-dammed valley, and thence to Rock Creek.The stream valley, largely wooded, runs mostly on private land."
],
[
"History",
"For the first hundred years after the founding of Washington, D.C., Coquelin Run drained \"a patchwork of open fields around occasional farm houses and barns.\"",
"Suburban development reached Coquelin Run in 1892, when the Chevy Chase Land Company graded an extension of Connecticut Avenue from the District of Columbia to just north of the stream.",
"A culvert was built to carry the stream under the dirt road and the double-track streetcar line that ran down its center.",
"This was the Rock Creek Railway, formed by the Land Company to haul passengers to its nascent development of Chevy Chase, Maryland.",
"Where the tracks and the road ended, just past Coquelin Run's northern bank, the Land Company built a terminal complex: a railway office of pressed brick, a wood-framed car barn, and a coal-fired power house with a tall chimney.",
"Coal would be supplied by a new railroad spur: the Georgetown Branch of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, which ran along the northern side of the stream's valley west of Rock Creek.",
"As part of the project, the Land Company dammed Coquelin Run about a half mile east of Connecticut Avenue.",
"The resulting artificial lake had two purposes: to supply water to the power plant's steam turbines, and to be the centerpiece of a trolley park named Chevy Chase Lake.",
"The 3.5-acre lake, roughly 160 by 240 yards, was eventually populated by turtles, frogs, snakes, and fish.",
"The amusement park was an instant hit, with city dwellers and suburbanites taking the trolley to boat on and swim in the new lake.",
"In 1910, the B&O extended its spur westward along upper Coquelin Run; the following year, the Columbia Country Club built its golf course on both sides of about a quarter-mile of the stream.The dam was removed and the lake drained around 1930, because of community concern over insect populations and safety.In 1953, the Maryland State Roads Commission proposed to build an elevated highway along the stream valley from Connecticut Avenue to East-West Highway on land owned by Montgomery County.",
"The proposal was opposed and ultimately defeated by local residents, civic groups, the Montgomery County Board of Education, and the Chevy Chase Land Company.In the early 1960s, Coquelin Run was placed in a conduit along the west side of Maple Avenue.In 1997, the B&O right-of-way along Coquelin Run was turned into an interim rail-trail called the Georgetown Branch Trail.",
"In 2017, construction began on the Purple Line, a light-rail line that uses the right-of-way.",
"The trail is to be rebuilt alongside the new tracks, which is projected for completion in 2027.In 1997, Coquelin Run was given a preliminary sub-basin/stream condition of “fair” by Montgomery County officials.",
"This assessment was downgraded to \"poor\" in 2002 and back to \"fair\" in 2008.In 2012, a planning report noted that invasive plant species had decreased the stream's natural biological diversity, and uncontrolled stormwater had eroded banks and deposited sediment that reduced habitat for aquatic animals.In the mid-2010s, the stream restoration firm Environmental Quality Resources worked to restore native plants and aquatic species to Coquelin Run, as well as to prepare the stream for anticipated increases of stormwater from the under-construction Chevy Chase Lake development."

"Lèse-nation"
],
[
"Introduction",
"Baron de Besenval dans son salon de compagnie'' at the Hôtel de Besenval, by Henri-Pierre Danloux (1791).",
"The portrait shows the baron about one year after he was acquitted in the crime of lèse-nation, shortly before he died.",
"'''Lèse-nation''', also lèze-nation, was a crime defined in France in connection with the French Revolution.",
"It means an offence or defamation against the dignity of the nation.",
"Both, the name as well as the corresponding law regarding the crime of lèse-nation, go back to the law relating to the crime of lèse-majesté.",
"Both were adapted by the revolutionaries during the French Revolution, so that the focus was no longer on the monarch but on the nation.",
"The English name for lèse-majesté is a modernised borrowing from the medieval French, where the phrase means a crime against The Crown.",
"In classical Latin ''laesa māiestās'' means hurt or violated majesty.",
"In the context of the name lèse-nation, it means a crime against the nation.The law regarding the crime of lèse-nation was in force between 1789 and 1791.It was immediately after the proclamation of the sovereignty of the nation, in the aftermath of the Tennis Court Oath from 20 June 1789, that the foundation for the law regarding the crime of lèse-nation was laid.",
"On 23 June 1789, the National Assembly announced that it will prosecute as criminals all those who, individuals or bodies, ''attack its existence or the freedom of its members.",
"''Almost over night, a new crime was invented.",
"Or as Charles-Élie, Marquis de Ferrières, put it: ''\"We suddenly saw the appearance of a new crime unknown to our fathers, a crime of lèse-nation.\"''",
"The events surrounding the Storming of the Bastille on 14 July 1789 played an important role in the development and implementation of the law.",
"Since the Storming of the Bastille, many denunciations, and the ghost of the complot, obliged the National Assembly to face the problem of the political incrimination.",
"Quick action was required."
],
[
"Protection for the Revolution",
"The law regarding the crime of lèse-nation was introduced in the early days of the French Revolution.",
"It came into force on 23 July 1789 by decree of the National Assembly.",
"It describes intentions that harm the nation and was modelled on the traditional crime of lèse-majesté as if to better illustrate the transfer of sovereignty.",
"The law was introduced to protect the Revolution and its values.",
"It also defined what the nation is.",
"By taking into account the emerging regime's increasing fears of a counter-revolution, it became one of the most important legal measures at the beginning of the Revolution.",
"In the long term, however, not.",
"The weak judicial effectiveness of the law regarding the crime of lèse-nation contrasted with its political ambition.",
"It explains its brief existence since, from 1791, the term ''crime contre la chose publique (crime against public affairs)'' was preferred, a criterion of all political justice."
],
[
"What is a crime of lèse-nation?",
"A crime of lèse-nation is to disregard, by will and by fact, the inviolable rights of the nation.",
"Or in short, according to the revolutionaries: The criminals of lèse-nation are those who want to maintain the old despotism and aristocracy.",
"And Maximilien Robespierre reminded his fellow revolutionaries in a speech on 25 October 1790 when it came to introducing new laws and establishing the judiciary: ''\"The tribunal that you have formed must be endowed with courage and armed force, since it will have to fight the great ones, who are enemies of the people.\"''",
"It was defined that crimes of lèse-nation are attacks committed directly against the rights of society.",
"There are two types: those who attack the nation's physical existence, and those who seek to vitiate its moral existence.",
"The latter are as guilty as the first.",
"Crimes of lèse-nation are rare when the constitution of the state is strengthened and the government established, that is, if the government is able to enforce the state's monopoly on the use of force.",
"At this point, however, the young nation was still in the process to form up.",
"Under the constitution of 1791, the crime had to be judged by the ''Haute Cour Nationale.''"

"The who's who of the ''Ancien Régime'' in the dock",
"frontispiece of the ''plaidoyer'' in the ''Affaire de M. le Baron de Besenval,'' by Raymond Desèze, lawyer of Pierre Victor, Baron de Besenval.The most prominent personalities who were accused of the crime of lèse-nation were: Charles Eugene, Prince of Lambesc, Charles Marie Auguste Joseph de Beaumont, Comte d'Autichamp, Victor François, Duc de Broglie, Charles Louis François de Paule de Barentin and Louis Pierre de Chastenet de Puységur.",
"The only death sentence passed under this law was that of Thomas de Mahy, Marquis de Favras.",
"The Marquis de Favras was sentenced to death on 18 February 1790.The next day, he was hanged on the Place de Grève in Paris.",
"The execution of this judgment is regarded as the ''first experience of political justice of the French Revolution.",
"''=== A Swiss baron in the dock ===However, the most famous person accused of the crime of lèse-nation was Pierre Victor, Baron de Besenval de Brunstatt, a Swiss military officer in French service.",
"His case became exemplary.",
"Not only because he was a foreigner, a close friend of Queen Marie Antoinette, and one of the first accused of the crime of lèse-nation, but also because of his fame and his famous friends who campaigned for his release, such as the Marquis de Lafayette, Jacques Necker and the Comte de Mirabeau.",
"What was ultimately important for the baron's survival: These gentlemen also enjoyed respect among the revolutionaries.",
"Furthermore, the baron was represented in court by the best and most prominent French lawyer at the time, Raymond Desèze, who later also defended King Louis XVI in court.",
"The court was deeply impressed by Desèze's ''plaidoyer.''",
"The ''plaidoyer'' was even published and was considered a reference in court cases regarding the crime of lèse-nation.On Monday, 1 March 1790, the Baron de Besenval was acquitted in the crime of lèse-nation.",
"A verdict that was not without controversy.",
"Quite a few saw this judgment as a courtesy judgment for the baron's influental friends."

"Santa Catalina, Lima"
],
[
"Introduction",
"'''Santa Catalina''' is a neighbourhood in La Victoria District, Lima, Peru.",
"Originally an Ichma settlement, it is currently an area inhabited by upper middle class families, making it the best consolidated area of the district, where it is the epicenter of construction for many real estate companies.",
"Likewise, it is where the tallest residential buildings in Lima are located.",
"It is considered the safest and best looking area in the district."
],
[
"History",
"In its beginnings, Santa Catalina was mostly corn fields, and along with neighbouring Balconcillo, it belonged to the Miraflores district.",
"In 1906, after these two areas were founded as an ''urbanisation'', they were annexed to the district of Lima.",
"However, in 1920, when the district of La Victoria was created, both urbanisations ended up being annexed to this new district.",
"Throughout the 20th century, Santa Catalina housed houses of a medium-high socioeconomic level, which continues to this day.Some time later, in the year 2000, it was proposed in Congress that Santa Catalina would be separated from La Victoria, and together with the urbanisations of Balconcillo, Monte Carmelo, La Pólvora, Túpac Amaru and Apolo they would form a new district.",
"Where, from north to south, it would start from México Avenue to Javier Prado Avenue.",
"And from west to east, from Paseo de la República avenue to San Luis, Nicolás Arriola, Aviación and Luis Aldana avenues.",
"However, the project was shelved after the presidential vacancy process against Alberto Fujimori, that same year.Currently, the urbanisation has had a change in zoning, going from two or three-storey houses to residential buildings of 7 to 37 floors.",
"Likewise, new business buildings have been located.",
"Which led to a large part of the area being modernised and assimilated to its surrounding districts such as San Borja and San Isidro."

"Frequency (marketing)"
],
[
"Introduction",
"In marketing and advertising, '''frequency''' refers to the number of times a target audience is exposed to a particular message or advertisement within a given time frame.",
"This concept is a fundamental element of marketing communication strategies, aiming to enhance brand recall, create awareness, and influence consumer behavior through repeated exposure.",
"From an audience perspective, Philip H. Dougherty says frequency can be interpreted as \"how often consumers must see it before they can readily recall it and how many times it must be seen before attitudes are altered.",
"\"For a business, increased frequency is generally desirable.",
"Some studies have shown that audiences respond more favorably from repeated exposures to advertisements (i.e., increased frequency).",
"Moreover, to maximize return on ad spend, some research suggests the repeat of exposures should be spread out (once-a-week) versus multiple times in a short-time period (multiple times in a day), in order not to overwhelm the target audience."
],
[
"Construction",
"=== Television ===In television media, frequency is calculated by dividing the number of impressions by the total audience population that was reached.where* is the frequency* is the total number of impressions* is the total number of unique users (or reach)=== Radio ===In radio, frequency is calculated multiplying gross impressions, the total number of times a commercial is heard, divided by the total audience population that was reached.where* is the gross impressions* is the Average Quarter-Hour persons, the \"average number of persons listening to a particular station for at least five minutes during a 15-minute period\"* is the total number of spots or commercials* is the total number of unique users (or reach)"
],
[
"Frequency capping",
"'''Frequency capping''' is a term in advertising that means restricting (capping) the number of times a specific visitor to a website is shown a particular advertisement (frequency).",
"This restriction is applied to all websites that serve ads from the same advertising network.Frequency capping is a feature within ad serving that allows to limit the maximum number of impressions/views a visitor can see a specific ad within a period of time.",
"For example, 3 views/visitor/24-hours means after viewing this ad 3 times, any visitor will not see it again for 24 hours.",
"This feature uses cookies to remember the impression count.",
"Non-cookies privacy-preserving implementation is also available.Frequency capping is often cited as a way to avoid banner burnout, the point where visitors are being overexposed and response drops.",
"This may be true for direct-response campaigns whose effectiveness is measured in click-throughs, but it might run counter to campaigns whose goal is brand awareness, as measured by non-click activity."

[
"Introduction",
"'''''In Search of the Antidote''''' is the upcoming second studio album by American singer-songwriter Fletcher.",
"It is set to be released on March 22, 2024, through Capitol Records."
],
[
"Background",
"''In Search of the Antidote'' explores themes of \"identity, insecurity, ego, and self-fulfillment\", containing \"distinct production\" as well as \"powerful vocal delivery\".",
"A \"personal\" record, Fletcher acts as the \"creative pivot\" and examines the singer's \"ultra-vivid storytelling and unfiltered introspection\".",
"Talking about the topic, Fletcher revealed that she had been looking for \"the antidote in so many things\" over the years, such as \"women, the road, the stage, fans, spirituality and self-reflection\".",
"Making of the album begged the question of \"what would truly heal\" her, ultimately realizing that \"love is the antidote\".",
"However, it was not until this record that she would see love \"through all the different lenses and angles\" and discover its \"infinite manifestations\", which would turn out to be her meaning of ''In Search of the Antidote''."

"Introduction",
"The '''Ottoman square''' (Turkish: Osmanlı Meydanı), (Egyptian Arabic: التربيع العثماني) is a term given to the process of surveying Egyptian lands conducted by the Ottoman rule between the years 930 AH - 932 AH (1524 AD - 1527 AD).",
"The Ottoman square replaced the common ruk in the Mamluk era."
],
[
"History",
"After the Ottomans occupied Egypt, Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent ordered a new survey for Egyptian lands in the year 930 AH, and it was completed during the reign of the governor Hadım Suleiman Pasha and under Prince Kiwan in the year 933 AH.The book \"Description de l'Égypte\" became the only reliable source for studying the Ottoman square, due to the lack of specialized sources about the Ottoman square, unlike the Mamluk era, as scholars of the French campaign in Egypt recorded 16 administrative regions (states) in Egypt, half of which were in Upper Egypt and the other half in Lower Egypt.",
"No Ottoman square notebooks were found in the year 933 AH, so researchers had to resort to cross-referencing records before and after to determine what had changed.The Ottoman square were square-shaped lists of paper in which the area of each village was written.",
"They were added together in books, known as the square books, and were relied upon to estimate princely funds and list the names of villages in the Ottoman era.",
"Ottoman squares are another type that differs from the squares that were relied upon in the Mamluk era.",
"The square is a square-shaped document given to every fiefdom holder, in which his name and the amount of his fiefdom were recorded."
],
[
"Administrative division changes",

[
"Administrative arrangement",
"At the head of each state was a ''kashif'' (ruler), at the head of each governorate was a governor, and at the head of Cairo (the seat of the Ottoman ''wali''/governor) was Sheikh al-Balad, the chief Mamluk prince who held the title of Sanjak."
