Odonteus armiger
| 75,666,874 |
Odonteus armiger is the only European species of the genus Odonteus. It belongs to the superfamily Scarabaeoidea. This species lives a very hidden life and is therefore little known about it, despite its wide distribution.
|
|
Odonteus armiger
| 75,666,874 |
Description
|
Its body length is of 7–10 mm (0.28–0.39 in). The deep black, shiny body is short, rounded and strongly arched. Males have a narrow, movable horn at the base of the head. The females have a transverse ridge with two small bumps at this point. Other native beetles with a head horn are, for example, the european rhinoceros beetle or Copris lunaris. There are also two smaller horns on the sides of the male's neck shield. The antennae consist of movable leaves. Other similar genera are Geotrupes and Typhaeus, which lack the horn, the rimmed seam edge of the elytra and the tomentum spot on the front of the forelegs. They are also usually smaller then them.
|
Odonteus armiger
| 75,666,874 |
Distribution and habitat
|
The species is has a wide distribution in Europe. In the north, the species is found as far south as Sweden and the south of Great Britain. In the west, the species can be found as far as France and the north-eastern parts of Spain. In the south, the species is found as far north-east as Spain, southern France, northern Italy and the Balkan Peninsula and in the east, the species is found as far south as Russia (east to the Urals) and the Caucasus.
|
Odonteus armiger
| 75,666,874 |
Taxonomy
|
The species was first described in 1772 by Giovanni Antonio Scopoli under the name Scarabaeus armiger. Over time, the species was initially categorised in the Scarabaeidae family and later assigned to the Geotrupidae. It is now systematically classified as a member of the Bolboceratidae, a small family of the Scarabaeoidea. Numerous synonyms of the species can be found in the literature, for example Odontaeus armiger (Scopoli 1772), Bolboceras armiger (Scopoli 1772), Scarabaeus bicolor (Fabricius 1775), Scarabaeus mobilicornis (Fabricius 1775), Scarabaeus testaceus (Fabricius 1775), Scarabaeus rufescens (Ponza 1805) and Odontaeus fulvus (Mulsant & Rey 1871).

Plot
|
The story of Sangate Aika revolves around the rivalry between character Chima, a tamasha performer and Mahadev Patil, a cruel and conceited landlord and village chief of Rajuri. Even though Patil hasn't been convicted, Chima is furious with him for killing her father and for openly opposing the village's feudal structure. Because Patil is unable to question his authority in the community, the narrative develops as he commits other atrocities. He sends Salaram, a dacoit, to kill Sakharam Shinde, an industrious but impoverished farmer, and then rapes Sakharam's wife Hansa because of his conceit about insignificant things like bullock cart racing. After his daughter was born, she passed away. Subsequently, Patil turns on Salaram and gives him up to the authorities. In a surprising turn of events, Salaram looks after Hansa during her pregnancy and gives the kid to Chima upon her passing. As a result, Patil's daughter Hansa, who is also named Patil, dances in a tamasha for his adversary. Chima. At last, Patil becomes concerned about his son's antics when he witnesses Krishna, his half-sister, constantly playing practical jokes and showing affection for Hansa. Chima purposefully cheers on the young man and makes fun of Patil for falling into the trap that fate has set for him. Unaware of his daughter's conception and upbringing, Patil is appalled by his son's wicked impulses and driven insane by this information. In the pivotal last scene, Chima, resolved to get retribution, makes her way back to Rajuri with the goal of outing Patil. She performs a song on stage and informs the stunned audience—among them Krishna—about Patil's crimes. Hansa is also there, sobbing as she stands next to her adoptive mother on stage. After all the information has been revealed, Patil approaches Tamasha in the last confrontation brandishing a gun. However, just as Patil is about to shoot Salram, a dacoit kills Salram. Hansa gives her brother Krishna a rakhi as the curtain descends.

Release and reception
|
The film was released in 1959 in Maharshtra, becomes a major commercial success. Sangte Aika set a record by continuous screenings for almost 230 weeks. It also made a lasting impression on Marathi literature and theatre. Narwekar stated that Shikleli Baiko and Sangte Aika both reaffirmed the notion that the new Marathi film audience was concentrated in rural regions and was drawn to movies with a similar theme. Those who made films against this backdrop did so out of a natural desire to distance themselves from the limited urban Marathi film audience. Prior to independence, Marathi films were praised for their unique substance, and in light of this appreciation, Hindi versions were made shortly after.

Impact
|
The number of tamasha films steadily grew between 1959 and 1972. Sangte Aika spent nearly 140–240 weeks in theaters. Production figures for the tamasha film increased starting in 1961. As a result, there were two in 1961 (Shahir Parshuram and Rangapanchami), two in 1964 (Sawaal Majha Aika! and Sundara Mana Madhye Bharli), three in 1967, five in 1970.The tamasha gained popularity in rural performing circuits with a cinematic rendition. As it was eventually performed in tiny towns and villages, this also had an impact on its performance elements. A form that the film industry had successfully taken was being influenced in the opposite way. It led to an odd historical turnabout for the tamasha as a folk art form and the film industry.

Yoga (book)
| 75,666,912 |
Yoga is a 2020 book by the French writer Emmanuel Carrère.
|
|
Yoga (book)
| 75,666,912 |
Synopsis
|
The book begins as a personal essay about self-help, yoga and meditation retreats, but becomes an account of a period of depression and personal breakdown in the life of Emmanuel Carrère, triggered by the 2015 Charlie Hebdo shooting and involving the collapse of his marriage. He is committed to a psychiatric hospital, diagnosed with bipolar disorder and given ketamine and electroconvulsive therapy. Once he is out, he tries to find peace and occupy himself by travelling to Iraq to search for a Quran supposedly written with the blood of Saddam Hussein and to the island of Leros in Greece, where he tries to teach creative writing to newly arrived Asian men during the 2015 European migrant crisis.
|
Yoga (book)
| 75,666,912 |
Reception
|
Rob Doyle of The Observer called Carrère "a great pornographer of his own torments" and his books "wantonly self-referential", and wrote that despite the disparate material that Yoga contains, Carrière turns it into an insightful story.
|
Yoga (book)
| 75,666,912 |
Reception
|
Upon the French publication, the book created discussions as Carrère's ex-wife Hélène Devynck [fr] accused him of violating a legal agreement to not write about her in his books. This led to discussions about how much the content in Yoga diverged from Carrère's real experiences due to all instances where he had removed material about his marriage. Randy Rosenthal of the Los Angeles Times wrote that the omissions leave "a black hole" at the book's centre that becomes "an unforgivable flaw".

Venezuelan Criollo horse
| 75,667,008 |
The Venezuelan Criollo (Spanish: criollo venezolano), or Llanero / Llañero, is a stock horse breed from the Llanos region of Venezuela. It is descended from the Colonial Spanish horse, gradually introduced from the 16th century onwards, and is closely related to other Criollo and Paso Fino breeds. Small, sober and responsive, the Venezuelan Criollo is mainly used as a mount for stock cattle in its native region. They are still widely used for transporting goods and people.

| 75,667,008 |
The breed has excellent genetic diversity, and is therefore not threatened with extinction. Its main threat lies in the presence of parasites, notably Anaplasma phagocytophilum, which causes anaplasmosis. As its selection is still being organized, there is no stud book yet, and its numbers are unknown.

History
|
The Spanish name Llanero translates as "horse of the plains". The DAD-IS database and the University of Oklahoma Encyclopedia (2007) refer to the breed as Llanero (without diacritical mark), while CAB International, the Delachaux guide and researchers from the teams of E. G. Cothran and J. L Canelón refer to it as "Venezuelan Criollo". However, the Delachaux guide also specifies the existence of the name Llañero (with diacritical mark).

Venezuelan Criollo horse
| 75,667,008 |
History
|
Horses were extinct in South America around 10,000 BC, and the species only reappeared with the arrival of the crews of Christopher Columbus's second voyage in 1493. The Venezuelan breed is descended from the Colonial Spanish horse, introduced by settlers and conquistadores from the 16th century onwards - the same origin as the neighboring Trote y galope. In 1526, the settlement of Coro introduced local horse breeding. In 1528, King Charles V of Spain commissioned the Welser governors to import horses from Hispaniola, San Juan and Santiago de Cuba to Venezuela. It seems that horses abandoned by Don Pedro de Mendoza in 1535 near Buenos Aires also played a special role in the founding of the breed. The majority of these founding horses came from the Antilles, but a not inconsiderable number, acquired by the Welsers or by settlers, are thought to have come directly from Spain. Ambrosius Ehinger brought over 80 horses from Sanlúcar de Barrameda to Venezuela. Similarly, in 1545, Cristóbal Rodríguez, a settler in the Llanos, brought ten mares and two foals of the Andalusian breed directly from Jerez de la Frontera.

History
|
The Venezuelan Criollo breed originated in the Llanos plains of north-western Venezuela. The particularly harsh climate, with very dry winters, has led to a reduction in the size of the original Iberian herd.
|
Venezuelan Criollo horse
| 75,667,008 |
History
|
The Venezuelan Criollo was described and characterized by Ángel Cabrera in his work published in Buenos Aires (1945), then by R. De Armas in his veterinary thesis published in 1946, which is the most complete description published of the breed. The structuring of Venezuelan Criollo breeding is more recent, and stems from the observation by local llaneros that their traditional horses are better adapted to the climate of their region than the American Quarter Horse. A group of researchers from the Universidad Centroccidental Lisandro Alvarado, in Barquisimeto, has conducted several studies on these horses. In 2011, when a genetic characterization study was published on 214 subjects of the breed in comparison with other South American horse breeds, there was still no stud book (or herd book).
|
Venezuelan Criollo horse
| 75,667,008 |
Description
|
DAD-IS refers to it as a pony, but it is actually a small horse, typical of South American Criollos. Hendricks' book (University of Oklahoma, 2007) and the Delachaux guide (2014, which probably uses the latter's data) cite an average height of 1.42 m. The breed is close to the Argentine Criollo, but lighter in pattern, the result of the influence of the climate in its native region. The Venezuelan Criollo is also close to the Colombian Criollo. There are few phenotypic differences between horses from the states of Apure, Aragua and Mérida.
|
Venezuelan Criollo horse
| 75,667,008 |
Description
|
The head is rectilinear, sometimes slightly convex, and generally triangular in shape, with a broad base. Cheeks are prominent, eyes triangular and expressive. Medium-sized ears point upwards. The neck is of medium length, rather thick, with little definition at the throat. The chest is relatively narrow. The back is generally straight and strong, the rump rather swollen and short. The limbs are slender, ending in small, sturdy paws. Mane, tuft and tail are thick and abundant, but dewlap is rare.

Description

The coat is generally characterized by the expression of the Dun gene (which includes the bay dun and grullo coats), with black manes and markings, but a wide variety of other coats are possible, including chestnut, bay in all shades, black, gray, roan, strawberry roan, palomino and piebald.
|

| 75,667,008 |
Description
|
The Venezuelan Criollo is reputed to be very sober, requiring little food intake. They are well adapted to the climatic conditions of their region. Reputedly calm in character, they are responsive when called upon. Thanks to its selection for stock with livestock, it has inherited great endurance. Hematological alterations are considered to be one of the main unfavorable factors for horse breeding on the Venezuelan plains. A parasitological study carried out on two Venezuelan ranches shows that infestations with Trypanosoma evansi (7.3 %), Babesia equi (1.4 %) and Anaplasma phagocytophilum (32.9 %) are possible, and are responsible for significant losses in farm horses.

All South American horse breeds seem to belong to the same gene cluster, noted "h", which is notably the case in this breed, this cluster also being common to Iberian horses and Sorraia. Several particularly rare alleles, although not very frequent, were detected in the 214 Venezuelan Criollo horses analyzed for the purposes of the study by E. G. Cothran and his team in 2011. The Venezuelan Criollo is genetically very close to the Chilote and the Colombian Paso Fino, and is also genetically close to the Puerto Rican Paso Fino. The greater closeness to these three breeds compared to other South American Criollo is consistent with the breed's history, with the main ancestors of the Venezuelan Criollo coming from the Caribbean.

Description
|
The Venezuelan Criollo was the subject of a study to determine the presence of the DMRT3 gene mutation responsible for extra gaits: the study of 21 subjects failed to detect the presence of this mutation in 16.7 % of the horses tested, and the existence of horses with extra gaits was confirmed among the breed.

Usage
|
The Venezuelan Criollo is an essential partner for farm and ranch work. There is a difference in use according to sex: the horses put to work are very generally the males, while the females are put to breeding. These horses are mainly used as mounts for transporting people and goods in rural Venezuela. In particular, they are used for work riding with livestock. This use is predominant on Venezuela's large cattle farms. These horses help the Llaneros to stimulate, fetch and capture cattle destined for meat production in the country.

Usage
|
These horses also make good touring horses. Cross-breeding with other breeds is rare, as the horses resulting from such cross-breeding are generally less adaptable to the climatic conditions of the Llanos.

Breeding spread
|
The breed is unique to Venezuela, and is divided into three sub-populations in the states of Apure, Aragua and Mérida. The study conducted by Uppsala University, published in August 2010 for the FAO, identifies the Llanero as a local South American horse breed with an unknown level of threat. The teams of E. G. Cothran and Raymi Castellanos also list it as a "local breed". However, there is no record of numbers, particularly on DAD-IS (2018).

Breeding spread
|
According to the Delachaux guide (2014), awareness is growing of the large number of crosses made in the breed (which contradicts information from Venezuelan studies). According to Cothran et al. the excellent genetic diversity and large numbers make the threat of extinction very low, and should ensure the future of the Venezuelan Criollo, unless a genetic bottleneck occurs.

Composition and reception

"It was my first time ever in LA, in a studio for the first time ever with Aaron, and it felt like I was finally being seen for the artist I'd been trying to be for years. I've always idolized Michelle Pfeiffer and thought she was a picture perfect bombshell so when I was in the back of my uber with the windows down, headed to the studio bright and early that first morning and humming a little chorus melody to myself, I felt like a bombshell of my own. It felt like my life had finally started."
