27332750_0_1 | 27332750 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary%20and%20secondary%20antibodies | Primary and secondary antibodies | Primary and secondary antibodies. Primary
A primary antibody can be very useful for the detection of biomarkers for diseases such as cancer, diabetes, Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease and they are used for the study of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) and multi-drug resistance (MDR) of therapeutic agents. |
27332750_1_0 | 27332750 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary%20and%20secondary%20antibodies | Primary and secondary antibodies | Primary and secondary antibodies. Secondary
Secondary antibodies provide signal detection and amplification along with extending the utility of an antibody through conjugation to proteins. Secondary antibodies are especially efficient in immunolabeling. Secondary antibodies bind to primary antibodies, which are directly bound to the target antigen(s). In immunolabeling, the primary antibody's Fab domain binds to an antigen and exposes its Fc domain to secondary antibody. Then, the secondary antibody's Fab domain binds to the primary antibody's Fc domain. Since the Fc domain is constant within the same animal class, only one type of secondary antibody is required to bind to many types of primary antibodies. This reduces the cost by labeling only one type of secondary antibody, rather than labeling various types of primary antibodies. Secondary antibodies help increase sensitivity and signal amplification due to multiple secondary antibodies binding to a primary antibody. |
27332750_1_1 | 27332750 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary%20and%20secondary%20antibodies | Primary and secondary antibodies | Primary and secondary antibodies. Secondary
Whole Immunoglobulin molecule secondary antibodies are the most commonly used format, but these can be enzymatically processed to enable assay refinement. F(ab')2 fragments are generated by pepsin digestion to remove most of the Fc fragment, this avoids recognition by Fc receptors on live cells, or to Protein A or Protein G. Papain digestion generates Fab fragments, which removes the entire Fc fragment including the hinge region, yielding two monovalent Fab moieties. They can be used to block endogenous immunoglobulins on cells, tissues or other surfaces, and to block the exposed immunoglobulins in multiple labeling experiments using primary antibodies from the same species. |
27332750_1_2 | 27332750 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary%20and%20secondary%20antibodies | Primary and secondary antibodies | Primary and secondary antibodies. Applications
Secondary antibodies can be conjugated to enzymes such as horseradish peroxidase (HRP) or alkaline phosphatase (AP); or fluorescent dyes such as fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), rhodamine derivatives, Alexa Fluor dyes; or other molecules to be used in various applications. Secondary antibodies are used in many biochemical assays including:
ELISA, including many HIV tests
Western blot
Immunostaining
Immunohistochemistry

Wam Entertainment is a Lebanon-based pan-Arab recorded music company, production company and artist management company formed in 2007 by Lebanese musician and producer Walid Al Massih. |
27332758_0_1 | 27332758 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New%20Wave%20Productions | New Wave Productions | New Wave Productions. History
The company, which eventually evolved into Wam, was founded in 2007 as MGN Studios by Walid Al Massih and two partners through a joint venture. At the time, the company was based in a simple home studio that catered to miniature music productions. |
27332758_0_2 | 27332758 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New%20Wave%20Productions | New Wave Productions | New Wave Productions.
In 2008, one of the partners decided to leave the company, and the company was officially renamed as Wam Entertainment. After many other problems with the third partner, Walid Al Massih was left to run the company alone. The company, now run wholly by Walid Al Massih, was expanded to enter the mainstream Middle Eastern market through the creation of the company's first proper hit in Ragheb Alama's hit song "Yighib". Walid Al Massih would go on to use his nightlife connections to produce music for some of the most well known artists in the region, such as Adam, Nawal el Zoghbi, Ayman Zbib, Ziad Borji, Maya Nehme, Myriam Atallah, Adam and Myriam Fares. |

Leslie Hewitt (born 1977, Saint Albans, Queens) is an American contemporary visual artist. |
27332773_0_1 | 27332773 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie%20Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt. Education
Leslie Hewitt was born in 1977 in Saint Albans, Queens in New York City. Hewitt received a B.F.A. from the Cooper Union's School of Art in 2000 and later received an M.F.A. from Yale University in 2004. She studied Africana Studies and Cultural Studies at New York University from 2001 to 2003. Hewitt has held residencies at the Core Program at The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, The Studio Museum in Harlem, and Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. |
27332773_0_2 | 27332773 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie%20Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt. Personal life
"Hewitt has been described as a member of the post–civil rights generation, which understands the civil rights movement through images and text rather than direct experience. More specifically, she is of a generation growing up just outside the immediate shadow of pressing political change, and one which also has a particular relationship to photography." |
27332773_0_3 | 27332773 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie%20Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt. Career
Hewitt explores political, social, and personal narratives through photography, sculpture, and site-specific installations. Her work varies in scale from small compositions to billboard sized photographs which rest in wooden frames that lean against the wall and invite viewers to experience a space that rests between sculpture and traditional photography. She references notions of non-linear perspective and double consciousness through arrangements of objects from popular culture and personal ephemera. She is interested in how much we rely on images to provide memories of personal experience, how collective memory of past events is shaped and preserved, and in how the two overlap, coexist, and inform each other. Hewitt draws much of her material from black popular culture of the 1970s and ’80s. Items such as VHS tapes of black cinema, graffitied documents, and books by Alex Haley and Eldridge Cleaver often appear in her photographs or reside within her installations. |
27332773_0_4 | 27332773 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie%20Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt.
Hewitt has an extensive residency and exhibition history. In 2007, she spent a significant amount of time in Houston participating in the Core Program and served as the Project Row Houses/ Core Fellow from 2006–07. Hewitt participated in the 2008 Whitney Biennial with her piece Make it Plain and received a 2008 Art Matters research grant to travel to the Netherlands to research Dutch still-life paintings created during the period of the Trans-Atlantic slave trade at the Rijksmuseum in Holland. From 2009–10 Hewitt was the Mildred Londa Weisman fellow as part of the Radcliffe Institute Fellowship at Harvard University. During her fellowship Hewitt examined the origins of the camera obscura and used the camera as a tool to explore cultural memory through the construction of temporary still lifes. By repeatedly composing and photographing her arrangements she captured changes in daylight, gravity, and perception. |

She was the recipient of the Guna S. Mundheim Berlin Prize in the Visual Arts and Fellow at the American Academy in Berlin for Spring 2012. In the fall of 2012 a solo exhibition of her work, Leslie Hewitt: Sudden Glare of the Sun, was presented at the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis. Hewitt was the 2014 USA Artists Francie Bishop Good and David Horvitz Fellow in Visual Arts. Her work is in the public collection at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, NY; Guggenheim Museum, New York, NY; Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles, CA; The Studio Museum in Harlem, New York, NY, among others. In 2016, her work was included in Photo-Poetics: An Anthology at the Guggenheim Museum, New York, NY. Leslie Hewitt: Collective Stance, a solo exhibition with collaborative works made with cinematographer Bradford Young, was presented at Sculpture Center in Queens NY in 2016. |
27332773_1_1 | 27332773 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie%20Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt. Midday (2009)
"Hewitt’s work has been said to pose questions about ‘the conundrum of the past and its connection to the contemporary moment.’ In Midday [2009], Hewitt’s latest series, a mandarin orange sits next to a copy of Manchild in the Promised Land, a nearly autobiographical account of the challenges of urban life for African Americans in 1950s New York. As with Hewitt’s earlier works, elements from the past are placed in relationship to more recent photographs, and thereby introduced into a contemporary context." |
27332773_1_2 | 27332773 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie%20Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt. Untitled (Structures)
The exhibition at the Menil Collection, 'Untitled (Structures),' (2013) was a collaboration with cinematographer Bradford Young and producer Karen Chien. Untitled is a series of short silent film vignettes created in 2012. The films include footage from 2010 – 2012 of locations where iconic civil rights photographs were taken in the 1950s and 1960s in Chicago, Memphis, and parts of Arkansas, which were all palpably transformed by the Great Migration. "Individual frames span 15 to 24 seconds and center around single details isolated from the archival images—a black body bent, a crack in the white marble stairs—that are then “restaged” and filmed on the same consecrated grounds." The works are 35mm film transferred to HD video, dual-channel video installation. In an Artforum interview, Hewitt says of the dual-channel video projection: "You can decide to look at one or the other, but your eyes have to contend with both." “Hewitt draws the tradition of the still life and combines it with the camera's ability to “shift the view of the world and hold it still.” |
27332773_1_3 | 27332773 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leslie%20Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt | Leslie Hewitt. Still-life series
In 2013, Hewitt released a series of photographs that were displayed at Sikkema Jenkins & Co. within tilted maple box-frames, that brings into focus the morphing of images in a studio into object-like artworks shown in a gallery. In Untitled (Perception), 2013, the block of maple that rests on a stack of three books, the only identifiable one being a collection of James Baldwin's essays, matches the work's wooden frame. Also nearby was an untitled work comprising two free-floating walls leaning against the gallery architecture. These minimalist objects are made of drywall and wood and were modeled on the texture and size of the gallery walls. They assert a content-free physicality that harmonized with the rest of the exhibition's pictorial and physical material. |

Plymouth Argyle Football Club is an English association football club based in Plymouth, Devon. The 2010–11 season is their 108th as a professional club, their 86th as a member of the Football League and 39th in the third tier of the English football league system. The club's 23rd-place finish in the 2009–10 Championship season means they are competing in League One for the first time since 2004, when they were promoted as champions. It officially began on 1 July 2010 and ends on 30 June 2011, with competitive fixtures taking place between August and May. |
27332785_1_0 | 27332785 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010%E2%80%9311%20Plymouth%20Argyle%20F.C.%20season | 2010–11 Plymouth Argyle F.C. season | 2010–11 Plymouth Argyle F.C. season. Background
The 2009–10 season was the club's sixth consecutive season back in the second tier of English football, known as the Championship. It was manager Paul Sturrock's third season back at the club after returning to Home Park from Swindon Town. He was replaced by Paul Mariner in December 2009 due to poor results, which had seen the club drop into the relegation zone. Argyle were relegated with two matches still to play after a defeat at home to Newcastle United, which saw the visitors claim the league title. Yoann Folly, David McNamee, and Lloyd Saxton were released after being informed that their contracts weren't being renewed, and defender Gary Sawyer also departed. A statement in May said that the club would seek a new manager and Paul Mariner would revert to his previous role as head coach. Jamie Mackie joined Queens Park Rangers two weeks later for an undisclosed fee. Bondz N'Gala joined the club from West Ham United on a free transfer, and Rory Patterson was signed for an undisclosed fee from Glentoran, before the club confirmed Peter Reid as their new manager in June 2010. |

Midfielder Simon Walton joined Sheffield United on a season-long loan. He was followed by Ashley Barnes, who joined Brighton & Hove Albion for an undisclosed fee, and Alan Gow, who was released. The club's first pre-season friendly ended in a 2–0 win at Southern League team Truro City thanks to goals from Yannick Bolasie and Steve MacLean. This was followed by a defeat at League Two club Torquay United. The visitors took an early lead through Craig Noone, but the home side responded with goals from Lloyd Macklin, Elliot Benyon and Nicky Wroe to secure a 3–1 win. Manager Peter Reid then selected a 26-man squad to travel to the Netherlands to play three matches against Dutch opposition. Included in the squad were three trialists, including former player Tony Capaldi. A headed goal from Joe Mason gave Argyle a 1–0 victory against Eredivisie side NAC Breda. They suffered a defeat by the same scoreline against fellow Eredivisie side AZ in their next friendly. An early penalty from Nick van der Velden was the difference between the two sides in a match which saw Steve MacLean sent off in the second half. |

Argyle took a three-goal lead against Eerste Divisie club SC Cambuur, but eventually had to settle for a 3–3 draw. A brace from Reza Ghoochannejhad and an equaliser from Robert van Boxel cancelled out Argyle's lead, which was given to them by Craig Noone and a brace from Joe Mason. Having featured in all of the club's pre-season matches, midfielder Anton Peterlin signed a permanent contract. Argyle won their next friendly later that day against Hereford United of League Two. Steve MacLean was on target to secure a 1–0 win for the visitors. Striker George Donnelly returned to Stockport County on a six-month loan. A penalty from Luke Summerfield earned the club a draw against Championship side Queens Park Rangers. Former player Jamie Mackie scored the equaliser for the hosts. Argyle completed their pre-season campaign with an 8–0 win against South West Peninsula League team Saltash United. Strikers Bradley Wright-Phillips and Rory Patterson both scored twice while trialist Owain Tudur-Jones, Craig Noone, Joe Mason and Curtis Nelson also found the back of the net. |

Kári Árnason was shown a straight red card in stoppage time. Sean Kinsella and Jordan Trott were loaned out to Bridgwater Town for one month. Argyle were defeated 3–0 at home by Peterborough United, who scored three second-half goals thanks to strikers Craig Mackail-Smith, who scored twice, and Aaron McLean. The club completed two transfers before the summer transfer window closed. Defender Stéphane Zubar arrived from Vaslui on a free transfer, and Chris Barker joined Southend United permanently, also on a free transfer, after spending a month with them on loan. |

Simon Walton had his season-long loan with Sheffield United cancelled after sustaining a cruciate knee ligament injury during a pre-season game. Réda Johnson scored his first goal for the club in a 1–1 draw at Colchester United. Having fallen behind to a goal from Andy Bond, the visitors equalised in the second half before Lee Molyneux was sent off for two bookable offences. Argyle won their next game 3–2 at home against Sheffield Wednesday despite being reduced to 10-men again. Captain Carl Fletcher and James O'Connor scored before Bondz N'Gala was shown a straight red card on the stroke of half time. The away side's Tommy Miller cancelled out Bradley Wright Phillips' first goal of the season before a Craig Noone header won the game. Three days later, the club suffered a 2–0 home defeat by Brighton & Hove Albion. Tommy Elphick and former player Ashley Barnes scored the goals. Bradley Wright-Phillips gave Argyle the lead at Rochdale, but the home side salvaged a 1–1 draw thanks to a goal from Craig Dawson.

Defender Marcel Seip left the club on loan, joining Charlton Athletic until January. An early goal from striker Gavin Tomlin gave Dagenham & Redbridge the lead in the club's next game before second half goals from Craig Noone and Rory Patterson earned Argyle a 2–1 win. It was confirmed that the club had been presented with a winding-up petition from HM Revenue and Customs in October relating to unpaid tax debts. Former Leeds United and Cardiff City chairman Peter Ridsdale confirmed that he was in talks with the club regarding possible investment. "I must point out that I am not the only person in discussion with the Argyle board, there are plenty of other interested parties," he said in an interview with the BBC. "But I am certainly not in a position to announce anything at the moment as negotiations are ongoing." On the same day, Rory Fallon signed for Ipswich Town on loan until January, with a view to a permanent transfer. Midfielder Sean Kinsella signed for Stafford Rangers on loan for one month. Having not received their salaries for November, along with the playing squad, the club's staff released a statement declaring that they would do "everything they can to help the club during this difficult period." |

Steve MacLean's loan spell with Oxford United was extended for a further month. The club's league match at Milton Keynes Dons was postponed because of a frozen pitch. Argyle were given 63 days to clear their debts with HM Revenue & Customs by a High Court judge. Ryan Leonard signed on loan with Weston-super-Mare for one month. Bradley Wright-Phillips scored two goals, either side of half time, as Argyle defeated Exeter City 2–0 in the first league meeting between the clubs since 2002. Following further wintry weather across the country, the club's next two games at Leyton Orient and Bournemouth were postponed because of frozen pitches. The club was unable to extend the loan of Conor Clifford from Chelsea when his registration was rejected by the Football League. An early goal from Stéphane Zubar was cancelled out by Lee Hughes as the club drew 1–1 with Notts County. After a week of boardroom upheaval, which included the departure of Roy Gardner as the club's chairman, Peter Ridsdale joined on a full-time basis as a football consultant. "From what I have seen the situation is precarious. No-one should underestimate the challenge that faces this club in surviving the short-term pressures," he said. "I ask everyone connected with Plymouth Argyle: the political and business communities, our creditors and anyone else who feels they can contribute to work with us." On the same day, head coach Paul Mariner was released from his contract, enabling him to pursue an opportunity abroad. "I have known Paul for a long time and working with him has been fantastic," said Peter Reid. "I'm sure he will be successful in everything he does in the future." |

Will Hoskins gave Bristol Rovers a two-goal lead in Argyle's next game before they responded through Bradley Wright-Phillips, Joe Mason and Stéphane Zubar to claim a 3–2 win. Peter Ridsdale confirmed that the tax debt which led to the club being presented with a winding-up petition had been paid. A 3–0 defeat by Bournemouth followed, who scored goals either side of half time through Danny Hollands, Liam Feeney and Marc Pugh. The loan deal for Sean Kinsella with Stafford Rangers was extended until the end of April. The club had two players sent off for the second time this season as they were defeated 3–2 at Huddersfield Town. Defenders Curtis Nelson and Stéphane Zubar were dismissed in a match which saw Argyle take a two-goal lead thanks to Joe Mason. The home side scored three before half time thanks to an own goal from Kári Árnason, Jordan Rhodes and Peter Clarke. |

Argyle lost 1–0 to Yeovil Town in their first visit to Huish Park. The winning goal was scored by Andy Williams against an Argyle side which had Yannick Bolasie sent off in stoppage time. A fourth straight defeat followed at Brentford, who won 2–0 thanks to a brace from Myles Weston. A winding-up petition issued to the club in October 2010 was dismissed in the High Court after Argyle cleared their debts with HM Revenue & Customs. "Clearly there is still a long way to go for the football club. It still has a number of creditors. We ask for their patience," said Peter Ridsdale. "The club will be working tirelessly to make sure the creditors are paid in full and the club is restored to its full financial health." Joe Mason scored a late consolation in a 3–1 defeat at home to Tranmere Rovers. Lateef Elford-Alliyu scored twice and Enoch Showunmi added a third for the visitors. Having not received their wages on time for a third month, the Professional Footballers' Association confirmed that it was providing financial support to the club's players. On 21 February, the club issued a notice of intention to appoint an administrator and were immediately docked 10 points by the Football League which dropped them to the bottom of the League One table. "We are going to have to produce Championship form to stay up. It's going to be a battle, I don't mind a battle," said Peter Reid. "There are people worse off than us, we have to get on with it." |

One day later, the club were defeated 4–0 at Brighton & Hove Albion. The home side were two goals ahead at half time thanks to goals from Glenn Murray and Chris Wood. Murray scored again in the second half before Francisco Sandaza added a late fourth. Ryan Leonard's loan spell with Tiverton Town was extended until the end of April. A penalty from Yannick Bolasie secured a 2–1 win over Colchester United. Rory Fallon's early goal was cancelled out by an own goal from Stéphane Zubar before Chris Clark was sent off. Bolasie's second half goal secured the club's first win in seven matches. "There will be light at the end of the tunnel," said Romain Larrieu, who made his 300th appearance for Argyle. "We all believe that. But it needs to be every game. This can't be a one-off. That's the standard now. We need to keep it there." |

Having issued a notice of intention to appoint an administrator in February, the club officially went into administration on 4 March. Brendan Guilfoyle of P&A Partnership was appointed to run the club and search for a buyer. A brace from Joe Mason and one each from Bondz N'Gala and Yannick Bolasie earned Argyle a 4–2 win at Sheffield Wednesday. Giles Coke and former player Réda Johnson scored for the home side. Argyle moved off the bottom of the League One table after winning their third match in a row. They were replaced by Swindon Town, who they defeated 1–0 at home. The winning goal was scored by Rory Fallon in the tenth minute. The club's run of wins came to an end at Hartlepool United as Antony Sweeney and Sam Collins scored either side of half time in a 2–0 win for the home side. A late goal from Yannick Bolasie earned Argyle a 1–1 draw at Carlisle United, who had taken the lead in the first half through James Berrett. |

As negotiations continued with potential buyers, the club's players, staff and management agreed to defer their wages for March and April until a deal was struck. "If it helps the football club to stay in existence it's not a problem. The future of Plymouth Argyle is the most important thing," said Peter Reid. "I feel for them [the office staff]. Some of the sacrifices they are having to make are incredible. But the spirit among the staff is brilliant." A second half goal from Gary Jones saw Argyle return to the foot on the table as they lost 1–0 at home to Rochdale. The club's match at home to Southampton was rearranged for 2 May due to international call-ups involving Onismor Bhasera, Rory Fallon and Joe Mason. |

Early goals from Scott McGleish and Dean Cox saw Argyle fall nine points adrift of safety after a 2–0 defeat at Leyton Orient. The club secured their first win in five games against Walsall on 9 April at Home Park. Yannick Bolasie and Rory Patterson scored in a 2–0 win. On 16 April, Argyle took on Peterborough United at London Road. The away side led at half time thanks to a goal from captain Carl Fletcher in the 38th minute. Peterborough equalised ten minutes into the second half through Ryan Bennett before Craig Mackail-Smith won the game 2–1 for the hosts. Argyle moved off the bottom of the table on 22 April after a 1–0 win at Dagenham & Redbridge. The decisive goal was scored by Rory Patterson, who converted a 25-yard free-kick in the 48th minute. Patterson was sent off late in the game for a second bookable offence. Three days later, a goal from Simon Walton earned a 1–0 win at home against Milton Keynes Dons. A 1–0 defeat at Exeter City on 30 April meant Argyle needed to win their last two matches of the season to have a chance of avoiding relegation. James Dunne's first goal of the campaign earned all three points for the home side. |

On 2 May, Argyle were relegated to League Two after a 3–1 defeat at home to Southampton, with 13,118 in attendance. Rickie Lambert gave the visitors the lead just before half time and they increased their lead soon after the restart through former Argyle player Ryan Dickson. Lambert scored his second goal of the game from the penalty spot before Yannick Bolasie scored a consolation goal in stoppage time. The club's last game of the season was on 7 May and they were defeated 4–1 at Home Park. Goals from Scott McGleish and Dean Cox gave the visitors a two-goal lead at half time. Yannick Bolasie reduced the deficit after 63 minutes, but two further goals from Alex Revell ensured that Argyle finished 23rd in the table. |

Nostra Segnora de Mesumundu ("Our Lady of Mesumundu") is a religious building in the territory of Siligo, Sardinia, Italy. |

Located in the archaeological complex with the same name, it was built in the 6th century, during the Byzantine domination of the island, over a pre-existing Roman structure (2nd century AD), which included a thermal plant.
The Byzantines re-used part of the walls of the Roman building, as well as the aqueduct. The edifice could have been used as a baptistery. However, it is also possible that it was used for the purification of ill people through an immersion rite (agiasma). |

In 1063, the structure was donated by the Giudice (duke) Barisone I of Torres to the Abbey of Montecassino. When monks came from the Italian religious community they took possession of lands and goods and founded a monastery.
The monks, moreover, to adapt the sacred building to the liturgy imposed by the catholic church following the East–West Schism, they added an apse and created a new entrance. For the work, they used materials from the nearby Roman ruins and the nuraghe Culzu. |

On 24 June 1147 Gonario II of Torres, while on his way to the Holy Land to visit the Holy Sepulcher, he passed to Montecassino: on that occasion he issued, in favor of abbot Rainaldo di Collemezzo, a document confirming all the donations and concessions made to the monastery in the documents of his predecessors. |

Towards the end of the 19th century and early 20th century the church was the object of interest by the architectural historian Dionigi Scano, who also oversaw a restoration project that was never implemented.
Between the late 1950s and early 1960s, following two excavation campaigns, the archaeologist Guglielmo Maetzke established the dating of the temple to the sixth century. |

The temple, which is particularly simple in construction, can be compared to the cross-domed typology for the ichnografy.
The central body remains of the original structure, a rotunda with a dome covering with two large windows with lowered arch open on the upper part, together with two unequal arms both apsed, oriented to the west and to the south. The first is covered with a barrel vault, the second has a large arched window covered with a half dome.
In the construction of the building, parts of the walls of the pre-existing thermal environments were reused. Also in that construction phase, the old Roman aqueduct was also restored, of which a fragment remains outside to the south of the monument.
Inside the building, there are a fragment of the Roman canalization and, at a higher level, the remains of the channels from the Byzantine era. |

Young Spartans Exercising, also known as Young Spartans and also as Young Spartan Girls Challenging Boys, is an early oil on canvas painting by French impressionist artist Edgar Degas. The work depicts two groups of male and female Spartan youth exercising and challenging each other in some way. The work was purchased by the trustees of the Courtauld fund in 1924 and is now in the permanent collection of the National Gallery in London. |
27332920_0_1 | 27332920 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young%20Spartans%20Exercising | Young Spartans Exercising | Young Spartans Exercising. Depiction
The painting depicts as its subject matter two groups of older children, five girls (it initially appears to be four, however upon closer inspection there is a face and set of legs that belong to a fifth) and five boys, with the girls apparently taunting or beckoning the boys. The girls are positioned to the left of the painting, the boys to the right, while in-between the two groups in the background appear a third group watching them; their appearance striking as they are fully dressed while the youth in the foreground stand naked or topless. Behind the onlookers, identified as Lycurgus and the mothers of the children, lies the city of Sparta, dominated by Mount Taygetus, from which the bodies of the society's "unfit" children were supposedly thrown into a ravine, to die from trauma or exposure. |
27332920_0_2 | 27332920 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young%20Spartans%20Exercising | Young Spartans Exercising | Young Spartans Exercising. History
The painting was begun in 1860 with Degas returning to the canvas to rework the piece over the following years, though it remained unfinished upon the artist's death. X-rays taken of the work during the early 21st century have revealed that Degas changed the positioning of the youths, their faces, and even their number; this last change resulted in the strange image of the four women in the foreground having ten legs among them. Degas' revisitation of the faces of the young people is often mentioned in art criticism, as it is believed the artist changed the features of the youths from the classic handsome Greek ideal, to a more urban modernistic look. The French art historian André Lemoisne, was first to note on this fact, remarking that the subjects had a contemporary Parisian look, more akin to the "gamins of Montmartre". More recent critics agree with Lemoisne, believing Degas was attempting to "update" his painting. |

A second full-scale version of the painting exists, held by the Art Institute of Chicago. This version is much less finished, but it shows a vastly different background, with a more detailed landscape and a large architectural structure, around which the characters in the background are resting. The work also shows how Degas changed the number of foreground figures with an additional boy on the right of the painting. |

Young Spartans Exercising was purchased by the National Gallery in 1924. Though at one time it was displayed in Room 41, as of May 2020, it was not on display in the museum. |
27332920_0_5 | 27332920 | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young%20Spartans%20Exercising | Young Spartans Exercising | Young Spartans Exercising. Criticism
In 1879, Italian art critic Diego Martelli described the unfinished work as "one of the most classicizing paintings imaginable"; though after Martelli's remarks, Degas returned to the painting and removed the classicizing architecture. |

In a 1985 edition of The Art Bulletin, art critic Carol Salus hypothesises that the work "has traditionally been interpreted as representing young women challenging young men to wrestle or race, is instead a presentation of Spartan courtship rites". This position was challenged in the same publication the following year, with Linda Nochlin arguing that the work could encompass a variety of meanings, and by referring to Degas' own reluctance to explain the work in any great detail, allows the viewer to interpret the work to their own merit. This view is echoed by Christopher Riopelle, curator of 19th-century painting at the National Gallery, who in 2004, stated that the painting "starts as a traditional historical painting, closely based on classical accounts and meticulous research. It ends as something much more enigmatic." |

Blue Labour is a British campaign group that seeks to promote blue-collar and culturally conservative values within the UK Labour Party — particularly on immigration, crime, community spirit, and the European Union — while remaining committed to labour rights and left-wing economic policies. It seeks to represent a traditional working-class approach to Labour politics. Launched in 2009 as a counter to New Labour, the Blue Labour movement first rose to prominence after Labour's defeat in the 2010 general election, in which for the first time the party received fewer working-class votes than it did middle-class votes. The movement has influenced a handful of Labour MPs and frontbenchers; founder Maurice Glasman served as a close ally to Ed Miliband during his early years as Leader of the Opposition, before himself becoming a life peer in the House of Lords. The movement has also seen a resurgence of interest after the loss of red wall seats in the 2019 general election. |

Blue Labour argues that the party lost touch with its base by embracing antipatriotism in the face of Brexit and by undermining solidarity in local communities through bureaucratic collectivism, social agendas, and neoliberal economics. It argues that whilst postwar Old Labour had become too uncritical of state power, New Labour far worsened this with an uncritical view of global markets as well. The group further advocates a switch to local and democratic community management and provision of services, rather than relying on a top-down welfare state which it sees as excessively bureaucratic. Economically it is described as a "movement keen on guild socialism and continental corporatism". The Blue Labour position has been articulated in books such as Tangled Up in Blue (2011), by Rowenna Davis, Blue Labour (2015), edited by Ian Geary and Adrian Pabst and Despised: Why the Modern Left Loathes the Working Class by Paul Embery. |

The London Metropolitan University academic Maurice Glasman launched Blue Labour in April 2009 at a meeting in Conway Hall, Bloomsbury. In that meeting, he called for a "new politics of reciprocity, mutuality and solidarity" as an alternative to the post-1945 centralising approach of the Labour Party. The movement grew through a series of seminars held in University College, Oxford, and at London Metropolitan University in the aftermath of Labour's defeat in the 2010 general election. |

It has been suggested that the name Blue Labour came from a reaction to a comparable trend in the Conservative Party called Red Tory, but it was also chosen to suggest a hint of sadness, nostalgia and loss. The philosophical basis of Blue Labour is a combination of Aristotelianism (especially the concept of virtue) with the critique of market society developed by the Hungarian economist Karl Polanyi. |

Blue Labour sees the EU as a centralising force which limits the capacity for democratic decision-making about life in the UK. In particular, the idea of a 'single market' has been stretched too far as what began as a desire to facilitate trade across national boundaries has, in the name of competition policy, become a resistance to governments setting their own policies on areas like housing and financial services. |

In July 2011, Glasman suggested that free movement of labour from the European Union should be renegotiated, causing a rift within the party. At a fringe meeting of the 2011 Labour Party Conference, Glasman reaffirmed some of these statements on immigration, argued for half of Britain's universities to be converted to vocational colleges and criticised the power of public-sector trade unions. |

Glasman criticised the New Labour administration of Tony Blair for having an uncritical view of the market economy and that of Gordon Brown for being uncritical of both the market and the state. Chuka Umunna, the former Labour Shadow Business Secretary, who later left the Party, said in 2011 that Blue Labour "provides the seeds of national renewal". |

Blue Labour argues that abstract concepts have held back the Labour Party from linking with the concerns of many voters, with its concern over material equality leading to an "obsession with the postcode lottery" and its belief in internationalism leading to it ignore the fears of low-paid workers about immigration. As an alternative to those ideas, Blue Labour emphasises the importance of democratic engagement with more left wing economic policy combined with insisting that the Labour Party should seek to reinvigorate its relationships with communities across the nation, with an approach based on what Glasman describes as "family, faith, and flag". Blue Labour is also pro-gay rights and anti-racist. |

Blue Labour has been influenced by Old Labour traditions of self-help and mutualisation, with proponents quoting R. H. Tawney, G. D. H. Cole, Keir Hardie, William Morris and Thomas Paine. They also argue that that Old Labour tradition was sceptical of the market as well as the state and wanted to redistribute power and wealth to communities rather than expand the state to redistribute wealth which is the root of Blue Labour's criticism of the Labour government under Clement Attlee. Figures in the Labour Party such as Frank Field have been cited as inspirations for Blue Labour. |

In October 2013, Glasman delivered a speech to a Social Democratic Party of Germany event in Berlin. Praising the role of Ernest Bevin in developing the German economic model after the Second World War, he described the SPD as Labour's most important sister party outside the Commonwealth. He contrasted the British post-war consensus negatively with the German model, saying the latter was closer to the pre-war Labour ethos of solidarity than the collectivism of Attlee which he described as a continuation of wartime planning. Glasman concluded that pre-war Labour "improved the conditions of the working class precisely because it was not simply left-wing, it was also patriotic, conservative in relation to the constitution of Parliament and the monarchy, very strong in support of family life and contribution with a strong sense of place". |

Glasman was once described as former Labour leader Ed Miliband's "guru" by political commentator Matthew D'Ancona, who suggested that while the party may not adopt the full programme of Blue Labour (particularly its criticisms of consumerism and globalisation), the trend was helping "the Labour leader forge a language in which to express his championship of the NHS". Between 2010 and 2015, some commentators suggested that Blue Labour could be a potential alternative to David Cameron's Big Society, the "big idea" that might even "define Miliband's leadership". |

The Conservative government of Boris Johnson changed policies toward Levelling Up the regions and raising working-class wages and skills partly by limiting migrant labour through Brexit, along with some more communitarian themes, and away from the small-state libertarian Singapore-on-Thames Brexit vision. Blue Labour reported an increase in followers after Johnson’s 2019 general election victory. |

The Labour Tradition and the Politics of Paradox: The Oxford London Seminars, 2010–2011 is a collection of articles by Glasman, Stears and Jonathan Rutherford along with commentaries by many leading Labour figures including David Miliband, David Lammy, Hazel Blears, Jon Cruddas and James Purnell which looks at the way an attachment to neoliberalism and globalisation cut Labour off from some of its community traditions and ignored the importance of human relations. |

The book Tangled Up in Blue by Rowenna Davis explores the extent of Blue Labour's influence within the Labour Party and how Glasman's ideas influenced the leadership campaigns of both Ed Miliband and his brother David Miliband. It talks of how Glasman was initially working for David Miliband's campaign and put forward ideas on much more community devolution and the Movement for Change. It alleges that the living wage campaign masterminded by Ed Miliband's supporters was as a result of Glasman's involvement in Ed Miliband's leadership campaign at the same time. It also suggests Glasman used ties with Stewart Wood and Patrick Diamond to put forward Blue Labour ideas in Labour's 2010 manifesto such as community land trusts and a living wage as well as writing Gordon Brown's speech. The book further reveals alleged links between Glasman and Phillip Blond and similarities between their politics as well as how Glasman and Blond were co-operating together to promote their "radical conservatism" with both Labour and Conservative parties. |
