Clube Juvenil

The Clube Juvenil (English: Youth Club) is based in the Brazilian city of Caxias do Sul, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. Founded in 1905, it is one of the oldest and most traditional social and recreational organizations in the city. It created the first adult soccer team and the first cinema in Caxias do Sul. In 2021, the headquarters were closed and the building was made available for rent. History The Clube Juvenil is one of the oldest and most traditional social and recreational associations in Caxias do Sul. It was created by Américo Ribeiro Mendes, Carlos Giesen and Henrique Moro, who, dissatisfied with the limited options for recreation in the city, invited twenty young people to establish a club; on the scheduled day, June 19, 1905, only eleven guests showed up. The foundation ceremony occurred in José Bragatti's house, whose upper floor served as the temporary headquarters of the new entity. The first board of directors consisted of Carlos Giesen as president, Dante Panarari as vice-president, Américo Mendes as secretary, Henrique Moro as treasurer, Archimino Selistre de Campos as official speaker, and Vitório Rossi and Antônio Guelfi as party directors. The first statutes stipulated that only single men would be admitted, but the restriction was revoked. It also stated that their functions would be "to promote all kinds of entertainment for the most excellent families of this town, such as balls, picnics, country walks. The parties will be held monthly at the expense of the club". On July 23, the club held its first ball. On December 31, the first gala ball occurred and the board of directors was installed. Although the community sympathized with the club, some politicians began to demand a politicized stance from the board, which caused friction and persecution. Carmine Fasulo, the vicar of the parish church, also launched a campaign against the association. The conflicts continued for several years and were exacerbated by financial difficulties. In 1907, the Clube Juvenil founded the Juvenil Cinema, the first movie theater in Caxias do Sul. In 1908, Nair Ronca was elected the first Juvenil Queen. In the same year, the headquarters were moved to a larger building, also rented, where the Pompeia Hospital is located today; the big civic celebrations for the arrival of the train in 1910 were held on the site. A plot of land in Andrade Pinto Street, now Os 18 do Forte Street, was chosen for the new headquarters. On June 19, 1912, the building was inaugurated amid great festivities, which involved a solemn assembly, acclamations, banquets, sports competitions, a civic march and a gala ball. It included a large ballroom, restaurant, billiards room, space for indoor games and bowling. In 1911, the club launched a campaign to build the Juvenil Theater, which was inaugurated with performances by an Italian drama company simultaneously with the club's headquarters. The venue held dramas, comedies, concerts, magic shows, circus acts, school parties, lectures and charity promotions. In 1914, the club began organizing its own theatrical group, whose income from performances would be used to pay off the debts from the construction of the building. In 1912, the club founded a soccer team under the name Grêmio Foot Ball Juvenil, which incorporated some of the members of Sport Club Ideal and had Carlos Giesen as its first president. At the time, the club enjoyed significant social, recreational and cultural activities, but it was restricted to married members. In 1913, a group of young bachelors founded the Recreio da Juventude, which also founded its own team, the Esporte Clube Juventude. Sporting competitions became more frequent, other clubs appeared and culminated in the creation of the Citadino Championship. Juvenil was also one of the founding members of the Rio Grandense Sports Federation (now the Football Association of Rio Grande do Sul) in May 1918. Since 1922, women have participated in the Falenas, a semi-independent group that developed artistic, social and charitable activities with the collaboration of young men. Didila Saldanha was its first president and it ran until 1967. In 1924, the headquarters and adjoining theater were destroyed by a fire and the administration was temporarily transferred to the headquarters of the Associação dos Comerciantes. On December 8, 1928, the new headquarters on Júlio de Castilhos Avenue was inaugurated. In 1936, a large library with national and foreign works was opened. In 1954, the club absorbed the Clube de Natação Caxiense and transformed it into its recreational headquarters, with swimming pools, sports courts, a children's playground and a restaurant. In 1955, the club celebrated its fiftieth anniversary with grand balls and solemnities attended by authorities and Miss Brazil Martha Rocha. In the 1960s, the building underwent a major renovation that added a third floor. In 1977, a room in the headquarters was converted into a 150-seat theater. Due to the significant influence the club played in the history of Caxias do Sul, it has accumulated a significant historical, artistic and documentary collection, which led to the creation of the Department of Research and Historical Collection in 1990, coordinated by history professor Juarez Ribeiro Mendes in collaboration with historian Mário Gardelin and the Municipal Historical Archive, which is responsible for safeguarding the collection. The objective was to preserve, organize and publicize the remaining material. A call to the community to donate objects, photographs and other materials related to the club's history was also made. In 2001, a project to build a 90-hectare headquarters in São Francisco de Paula was developed. Besides parties and gala balls, the club regularly organized cultural activities for the entire local community, such as art exhibitions, concerts, recitals, literary soirees, political and civic events. An extensive cycle of activities was scheduled to celebrate the club's centenary in 2005. The Sempre Juvenil Project, which aimed to recover the history of Caxias do Sul and its relationship with social, political, economic and cultural development, stood out. It involved José Clemente Pozenato and Elisabeth Longhi Frantz, president of the Centenary Commission. With the collaboration of museologists and historians, the project was developed in three stages: First Act - The Character and the Setting; Second Act - The Ball; Third Act - The Work and Its Authors, which included extensive historical research, retrieval of oral memory, cataloging of the historical and iconographic collection, creation of a museum space and didactic exhibitions of photographs, documents and objects. After the centenary celebrations, a difficult period began. In 2007, the social headquarters was listed as a landmark site by the City Hall, but activities declined and were suspended in 2019. The premises were closed to the public, the restaurant was shut down and the building was put up for rent in 2021. The board claimed they couldn't afford to maintain the property and believed that the rental income would help solve the club's problems.

Plague in India

Plague and famine have been recurrent features of life in the South Asian subcontinent countries of India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. The two health disasters often go hand-in-hand. That failures to scientifically examine the remains of disaster victims can lead to misidentifications and misinterpretations is now recognised in the research literature. While forensic dentistry is taught in India, the use of odontology to help explain historical problems is in its infancy. 400 BCE or before Vesali The earliest known plague in India is documented by the Ratana Sutta which records an outbreak in the time of the Buddha that occurred in the north Indian city of Vesali. As he came into the city the sutta was recited and the plague subsided. This text has long been used as a paritta or protective text, one of the early instances of texts used in this manner mentioned in the Milindapanha. 525-26 Anuradhapura According to the Pali historical sources, a plague and famine assailed Sri Lanka in the time of Upatissa II of Anuradhapura (reg. 525 – 526). Following the precedent set in the time of the Buddha, the king ordered the Ratana Sutta to be recited by monks while walking the streets of the city. In the words of the Culavamsa: This event in Sri Lanka anticipates the Plague of Justinian. 920s South India and Sri Lanka The Culavamsa reports that Kassapa V of Anuradhapura (reg. 929 - 939) ordered the Sri Lankan army to withdraw from south India after he heard that troops were dying from plague. The Chola king in this encounter was Parantaka I (reg. 907 - 955). 1300s The Black Death spread across the world in the 14th century with devastating effect. For India, accounts of this pandemic are anecdotal, with clear testimony for bubonic plague found only from the 17th century. This has led some to think the disease did not reach India in the 1300s, a premature conclusion given plague is mentioned in Tughlaq dynasty sources. Since 2015, new evidence has been published, and a fresh examination of historical and philological problems undertaken. In addition, archaeo-pathology research has documented the Black Death in central Asia, a region with close links to India at the time. A number of human skeletons, possibly of the 14th century, were found during conservation work on the south side of the medieval Nīlakaṇṭheśvara temple, Udaypur, Madhya Pradesh. These were quietly disposed of for fear of stirring up controversy. Somewhat later, human remains were found at Ujjain, near the Mahākāl temple. The absence of scientific examinination led to unsubstantied speculation on the part of the press. While the date of the Ujjain remains is an open question, the site, like Udaypur, flourished under the Paramara rulers. 1790s Dharwad A mass burial of over 600 individuals was found near Annigeri in Navalgund taluk, Dharwad district and reported widely in the press. A full account, summarising the shifting interpretations, was prepared by K. V. Ramakrishnarao and posted on his Blog in 2020. In 2014, a report on the findings was published by the Directorate of Archaeology & Museums, Karnataka. 1896 Bombay In the summer of 1896, bubonic plague broke out in Bombay. Its arrival was part of a deadly pandemic that had originated in China in the 1850s and continued to afflict many parts of the globe until the 1950s. The operation against the epidemic was documented in photographs by a British officer. The photographic collection is now in the National Army Museum, London. 1994 north India In September 1994, India experienced an outbreak of plague that killed over 50 people and caused travel to New Delhi by air to be suspended until the outbreak was brought under control. The outbreak was feared to be much worse because the plague superficially resembles other common diseases such as influenza and bronchitis; over 200 people that had been quarantined were released when they did not test positive for the plague. Cases were deteccted in Maharashtra (488 cases), Gujarat (77 cases), Karnataka (46 cases), Uttar Pradesh (10 cases), Madhya Pradesh (4 cases) and New Delhi (68 cases).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bras%20Basah%20coffeeshop%20murder

Bras Basah coffeeshop murder

On 15 September 1973, 24-year-old vegetable seller Tan Eng Kim () was attacked and stabbed to death by another man at a coffee shop in Bras Basah, Singapore. The killer was Pehn Kwan Jin (), a 25-year-old seaman who sought revenge against Tan due to a previous dispute, although Pehn denied that he killed Tan out of vengeance and claimed that it was Tan who tried to attack him and he only acted in self-defence. However, the defence was rejected and Pehn was hence found guilty of murdering Tan and sentenced to death in May 1974. Pehn's appeals were dismissed, and he was hanged on 16 April 1976. Murder On 15 September 1973, at about 2am, a stabbing incident happened inside a coffeeshop at Bras Basah, and one man was killed during the stabbing. The sole victim of the stabbing was identified as 24-year-old vegetable seller Tan Eng Kim, who resided at Woo Mon Chew Road, off East Coast Road. Tan sustained a total of four stab wounds on his stomach and he collapsed outside the boys' toilet after staggering for a distance in the shop. Tan was rushed to Outram Hospital for emergency treatment, but Tan died shortly after his admission to the hospital. It was eventually uncovered through investigations that Tan was likely killed in a possible gang clash and was involved in talks between two rival gangs, and one of the gangs had attacked Tan and therefore killed. Several witnesses, including the employees of the shop and patrons, were interviewed and the police searched for any traces of murder weapons in the scene, but none were recovered. Tan's death was one of the two murder cases to happen within 24 hours during that week itself; a 30-year-old salesman named Kok Chee Onn was murdered outside a bar on the night of the date of Tan's murder. Professor Chao Tzee Cheng, a senior forensic pathologist, conducted an autopsy on the victim, and he found that out of the four stab wounds on Tan's corpse, one of them penetrated the heart and was sufficient in the ordinary course of nature to cause death. According to Professor Chao, the severity of the wound was such that it would have caused the death of Tan within ten minutes, due to the massive bleeding from the wound. He also stated that one of the other wounds had cut through the liver (but there was no major loss of blood) and some cuts were also found on the victim's left hand and arm. On 22 September 1973, it was announced that the police had arrested four gang members in separate locations across Singapore, and two of them were found to be in connection with the murder of Tan Eng Kim, and one of these suspects would be charged with murder. On that same day, the same suspect, identified as 25-year-old seaman Pehn Kwan Jin, was charged with murder, an offence that mandated the death penalty under Section 302 of the Penal Code. If found guilty of murder, Pehn would be sentenced to hang. Trial of Pehn Kwan Jin On 13 May 1974, the murder trial of Pehn Kwan Jin began at the High Court. Pehn was represented by Goh Heng Leong while the prosecution was led by Lawrence Ang, and the trial was presided over by two trial judges – Justice Tan Ah Tah and Justice T Kulasekaram. The trial court was told that on the date of the murder, the deceased victim Tan Eng Kim was drinking together with his friend Chong Hwang Kee at the coffeeshop in Bras Basah. At the material time, Pehn was also patronizing the shop with his friend Koh Teck Eng., and during a drinks session, Pehn told Koh that he wanted to hit someone, and although Koh advised Pehn to refrain from doing so, Pehn nonetheless stood up and paid the bill, before he approached Tan and in front of witnesses, he brandished a knife and plunged it into Tan's stomach. Tan tried to defend himself by taking a chair and hurled it at Pehn, but Pehn retaliated by throwing a chair at Tan, who managed to run to the back of the coffeeshop and locked the door behind him. However, Tan collapsed shortly after from his wounds and he would be taken to Outram Hospital, where he died upon his arrival. Pehn later fled from the coffeeshop but he was caught at Serangoon Road five days later for the murder. Koh, who appeared as a witness, testified that prior to the incident, he learnt that Pehn had been assaulted by Tan and his friends sometime after both Tan and Pehn, who were originally friends, fell out with each other, and the prosecution therefore alleged that Pehn had a motive of wanting to seek revenge against Tan by stabbing him to death on 15 September 1974. Not only that, Pehn had confessed to the police during interrogation that he indeed stabbed Tan. Pehn opted to enter his defence in court. He testified that before the murder, he and Tan Eng Kim were friends for more than a year, before a misunderstanding between himself and another friend had caused them to drift apart, and a month after they fell out, Pehn was reportedly assaulted by Tan and his two friends at a bar; Pehn was said to have been treated with unfriendly gazes from Tan, who would bump into him on purpose whenever he passed by him, and this led to Pehn asking Tan inside the toilet why he ignored him and did it to him. Tan responded by assaulting Pehn, who later reported the matter to Joo Chiat Police Station, but the news of the report reached Tan, who allegedly threatened a neighbour on knifepoint and probed him where did Pehn live. Turning to Tan's death, Pehn said that he only acted in self-defence when he killed Tan, and he recounted that after he and Koh arrived at the coffeeshop at 1am, he saw Tan's gang outside the shop and he feared Tan was looking for him. Later, Tan and a friend (Chong Kwang Kee) sat at a table next to Pehn's and Pehn noticed Tan keeping a knife at his left thigh, and he believed Tan wanted to use it to harm him. Pehn said he tried to have a talk with Tan peacefully but Tan did not reply to him, and after Tan looked away he took a chance to snatch the knife from Tan, and this drove Tan into pushing Pehn down. Pehn testified that after seeing Tan about to grab something from the table, he went at him and got into a scuffle, during which Pehn had stabbed Tan. Pehn said that he was unable to remember the full sequence of events as everything happened so suddenly, but the next thing he remembered was Tan arming himself with two knives and an iron rod inside the kitchen, and he had to hold onto the kitchen doorknob to prevent Tan coming out, before he made his escape. Overall, Pehn claimed he only acted in self-defence, and he denied murdering Tan out of revenge over their unsettled differences. He also denied telling Koh that he wanted to hit Tan prior to the stabbing. On 28 May 1974, Justice T Kulasekaram and Justice Tan Ah Tah delivered their verdict. Justice Kulasekaram, who pronounced the judgement in court, stated that there were three main contentions which both the judges arrived at when reaching the verdict. The first contention was they did not believe Pehn's claim that he wanted to settle his differences peacefully with Tan; the second was that they disbelieved Pehn's claim that he grabbed the knife from Tan; and the third point was the judges rejected the claim of Pehn that he only wielded the knife in self-defence after seeing Tan about to grab something from the counter. Due to these contentations, Justice Kulasekaram pronounced on behalf of the judges that Pehn's claim of self-defence should be dismissed, and given that Pehn had intentionally inflicted the knife wounds on Tan, such that one of the injuries were sufficient in the ordinary course of nature to cause death, there were sufficient grounds for the trial court to return with a verdict of murder. Therefore, 25-year-old Pehn Kwan Jin was found guilty of murder, and sentenced to death by hanging. Reportedly, Pehn, who was silent and expressionless at the time of sentencing, had tried to escape from the courtroom before the police officers could handcuff him. Pehn was quickly subdued by three of the officers present before he could successfully escape, and was led out of the courtroom thereafter. By October 1974, Pehn was one of the 15 people held on Singapore's death row awaiting their executions, and all of them were convicted of murder. Among the 14 others incarcerated on death row with Pehn, seven of them were responsible for the 1971 Gold Bars triple murders (where a businessman and his two associates were killed for 120 gold bars), two of them were guilty of the 1972 Amoy Street wine shop murder and another one of them was Chelliah Silvanathan, who killed a fellow gang member. Appeal and execution On 17 March 1975, the Court of Appeal rejected Pehn Kwan Jin's appeal, after finding that he had intentionally inflicted the fatal wound onto Tan and caused his death, and they therefore upheld Pehn's death sentence and murder conviction. On the same date itself, the Court of Appeal also rejected the appeal of another murder convict on death row, and upheld the death sentence of the convict Liew Ah Chiew, a former National Serviceman who was found guilty of murdering his superior Hor Koon Seng via a fatal shooting in 1974. Liew had since been hanged on 29 November 1975. On 18 December 1975, Pehn filed a motion for special leave to appeal to the Privy Council in London. However, the motion was rejected by the Privy Council. Likewise, on the same day, the Privy Council also rejected the appeals of both K. Vijayan Krishnan and Jorge Belardo Belleza against their death sentences. Vijayan, a labourer from Malaysia, was found guilty of murdering a crane driver Ahora Murthi Krishnasamy in 1973 while Belleza, a Filipino-born mechanic, was convicted of killing his lover Alice Ong in 1974. Belleza and Vijayan were both hanged since then. In February 1976, it was reported that Pehn and two other prisoners on death row appealed for clemency from the President of Singapore as a final recourse to escape the gallows. However, Pehn's clemency plea was rejected and his death sentence was consequently finalized.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daehan%20Cheolligyo

Daehan Cheolligyo

Daehan Cheolligyo is a Tenrikyo-based Shinshūkyō (Japanese new religion) that is based in South Korea. It is one of the two South Korean Tenrikyo organizations that adopted more localized customs to match with the general post-Japanese colonial cultural atmosphere; the other one is Cheolligyo Han'gukgyodan that still preserves the Japanese Sect Shinto-affiliated cultural aspects in terms of religious practices. Its headquarters are currently located in southern Uijeongbu right next to Mangwolsa Station of Seoul Subway Line 1 and Shinhan University's 2nd campus. History The Korean branch of Tenrikyo had to face the public backlashes of anti-Japanese sentiment after the surrender of Japan due to Tenrikyo being a religion of native Japanese origin. The first attempt to make an independent Korean Tenrikyo organization was led by Kim Gi-su in 1947 and founded General Association of Tenrikyo (). The disorganized social and political situation in South Korea at the time did not unite Tenrikyo followers instantly. Another group of Korean Tenrikyo adherents reformed their religion to become Cheon'gyeongsuyang'won (, lit. Heavenly Mirror Spiritual Training Center) in Seoul in 1948 as a way to cut down the Japanese colors within Korea's Tenrikyo communities, then evolved to General Association of Korean Tenrikyo () on 14 December 1952 by the thirty-three members of Cheon'gyeongsuyang'won in Daegu during the Korean War. The headquarters were moved from Cheongpa-dong in Yongsan District to Uijeongbu around late 2000s and early 2010s for the purpose of future exchanges with North Korea. Organization The head of Daehan Cheolligyo is called gyotong () and its congregations are called gyohoe () or churches in Korean. Difference from Tenrikyo Daehan Cheolligyo does not largely develop an independent path from Tenrikyo's regional church practices in Japan, but only Korean-ized or removed the verbose Shinto-based elements in the religious practices. Unlike its Japanese origin, Daehan Cheolligyo's adherents directly pray to the kanrodai fixtures that are installed within the main halls of respective churches instead of mirrors from Shinto traditions during the localized services appropriate for the Korean social environment.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hesperonyx

Hesperonyx

Hesperonyx (meaning "western claw") is an extinct genus of dryomorphan ornithopod dinosaur from the Late Jurassic Lourinhã Formation of Portugal. The genus contains a single species, Hesperonyx martinhotomasorum, known from bones of the fore- and hindlimbs. Discovery and naming The Hesperonyx holotype specimen, ML 2700, was discovered in 2021 in sediments of the Lourinhã Formation (Porto Novo Member) along the beach at Porto Dinheiro. The specimen consists of consists of bones from the left forelimb (a hand claw, ulnare, and partial metacarpal) and hindlimb (the tibia, fibula, most of metatarsals I–IV, remains of five phalanges, and three toe claws). In 2024, Rotatori et al. described Hesperonyx martinhotomasorum as a new genus and species of ornithopod dinosaurs based on these fossil remains. The generic name, "Hesperonyx", combines "Hesperus" (or the "Evening Star"), after the Greek god whose name also references the western direction—referencing the holotype locality in the west region of Portugal—with the Greek suffix "-onyx", meaning "claw". The specific name, "martinhotomasorum", combines the last names of Micael Martinho and Carla Alexandra Tomás, honoring their efforts in fossil curation and preparation at the Museu da Lourinhã. Description Hesperonyx is estimated as being long. Classification Hesperonyx was subjected to two phylogenetic analyses and found to be an indeterminate member of Dryomorpha. More precise affinities could be not concluded due to the paucity of remains. Paleoenvironment The Lourinhã Formation is one of the major fossiliferous formations of Portugal, preserving many species of dinosaurs, some of which are also known from the contemporaneous Morrison Formation of North America. Hesperonyx is the third named iguanodontian known from this formation, after Draconyx and Eousdryosaurus.

The First Day (Designated Survivor)

"The First Day" is the second episode in the American political drama series Designated Survivor. It was aired on ABC on September 28, 2016, in the United States, CTV in Canada, and Netflix worldwide. Plot In the wake of the Capitol attack, Michigan Governor James Royce imposes martial law and rounds up the Muslim population in Michigan. He dismisses Kirkman's orders to stop the violence against the Muslims, and claims he has the highest authority and does not accept their legitimacy of his authority as president. Kirkman meets Republican congresswoman Kimble Hookstraten, who is revealed she was selected by the Republican Party as the other designated survivor. She discussed with Kirkman about the situation and offers her support in reforming the federal government. Kirkman plans to visit the Capitol site to thank the first responders of the bomb site and in an attempt to reassure the nation, where Hannah Wells, an FBI agent, had already suspected that the second explosive was meant to be found. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Harris Cochrane obtained FBI analysis results pointing to a Algerian-based Islamic extremist group Al-Sakar led by Majid Nassar, but Kirkman needs to be absolutely certain of their responsibility and demands them to investigate further. As Tom and Alex visits the Capitol, while being briefed by Atwood, news headlines surfaced of a 17-year-old teenager Danny Fayad, brutally beaten by Dearborn police officers. As journalists demands answers, one man was spotted attempting to get closer to Kirkman. Secret Service agents tackles him to the ground and fires the warning shot, spurring the security detail to evacuate Tom and Alex out from the site. Kirkman brings in the Attorney General's lawyers requested by Rhodes and Shore, Wynbrandt and Massey, and asks them their opinions on how to deal with Governor Royce; Massey suggests issuing an executive order or martial law to force Royce to step down, Wynbrandt suggests a presidential proclamation, which either were seen as too hostile or too weak. Alex suggests that Tom can federalize the Michigan National Guard to force Royce's hand, but he insists on going with the political solution; both he and Alex are informed that Fayad died of his injuries. Tom manages to regain contact with Royce thanks to Hookstraten, who she and Royce are board members of the American Enterprise Institute. Tom then orders him to stand down all police forces, threatening to arrest him ostensibly for obstructing the federal investigation as Tom claimed the police have picked up undercover operatives working for the Department of Homeland Security, to which Royce, buying his bluff and pressured by the death of Fayad, reluctantly complies. Seth visits one of the temporary funerals on his way back home. and upon being asked by the Metropolitan Police officer if he had lost someone, Seth replies "I've lost everyone." At the bomb site, search teams found a sole survivor underneath the rubble. Reception One review of ShowbizJunkies reviewed the second episode as fast-paced and emotional, able to show the vulnerabilities of the main protagonist as Kirkman.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naked%20foal%20syndrome

Naked foal syndrome

Naked foal syndrome (NFS) is a genetic disorder specific to the Akhal-Teke horse breed. A rare genodermatosis, it is characterized by almost complete hairlessness and mild ichthyosis. The condition is inherited as a monogenic autosomal recessive trait, and affected horses typically die between a few weeks and three years of age. The exact cause of death in NFS-affected horses is not clear. Description Naked foal syndrome is a rare, genetic disorder specific to the Akhal-Teke breed and recognized among breeders. It is characterized by foals being born without hair and often dying within days to months after birth. While the exact cause of these early deaths is unknown, some hairless foals have survived up to 2.5 years. Records of hairless Akhal-Teke foals date back to 1938, and since then, the number of cases has steadily increased. The first scientific description of NFS was provided by researchers who identified a specific genetic variant associated with the syndrome. Through positional mapping and whole genome sequencing, the researchers mapped the disease-causing variant to two segments on chromosomes 7 and 27 in the equine genome. Further analysis revealed a single nonsynonymous genetic variant on the chromosome 7 segment that was perfectly associated with NFS. This variant, known as ST14:c.388G>T, leads to a truncation of over 80% of the open reading frame of the ST14 gene (p.Glu130*), resulting in partial nonsense-mediated decay of the mutant transcript. Genetic variants in the human ST14 gene are responsible for autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis 11, a similar condition in humans. The ST14 gene, which encodes a type II serine protease known as matriptase, is implicated in epithelial and epidermal development. In humans and mice, ST14 variants can cause autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis, leading to abnormalities in hair, teeth, and skin. The phenotype of NFS-affected horses resembles these human and mouse conditions, with severe alopecia and skin abnormalities. However, NFS foals have a more severe alopecia compared to human patients, and the ichthyosis is less pronounced. The exact reason for the short life expectancy of NFS-affected foals is unclear. The identification of the ST14:c.388G>T variant in NFS-affected horses suggests that these animals could serve as a valuable large animal model for studying this known human genodermatosis. The discovery of this variant also enables genetic testing to prevent the unintentional breeding of NFS-affected foals. Clinical and pathological phenotype Naked foal syndrome in Akhal-Teke horses is characterized by hairlessness and other dermatological abnormalities. Affected foals typically exhibit sparse, thin body hairs, alopecia in the limbs with increased hair density towards the distal ends, and may lack mane and tail hairs. Whiskers are sparse, curly, and short, while eyelashes are often missing. Skin abnormalities include dryness, scaliness (xerosis cutis), and the presence of scars and erosive lesions due to the lack of a protective hair coat. NFS-affected horses may also experience increased tear flow (epiphora). Case studies have shown growth delays and size differences compared to non-affected horses. Histopathological examinations reveal abnormalities in the hair follicles, with shortened anagen follicles and distorted infundibula filled with excessive keratin and sebum, indicating a follicular dysplasia. Some NFS cases present with other abnormalities, such as hydrocephalus, heart defects, and altered lymphoid organs, suggesting a broader impact on development and immunity. Prevalence The prevalence of the variant c.388G>T associated with naked foal syndrome was observed in a study involving 191 Akhal-Teke horses. Among these, 5 affected horses were found to be homozygous for the variant, while 10 obligate carriers were heterozygous. Testing revealed that 165 horses were homozygous for the reference sequence, and 26 were heterozygous for c.388G>T. The variant was not detected in a sample of 400 horses from other breeds.

Church of Sts. Cyril and Methodius, Burgas

"Sts. Cyril and Methodius" is an Orthodox church building in Burgas, Bulgaria. The church building is included in the list of the 100 national tourist sites from 2022. It has been declared an architectural, construction and artistic monument of culture (immovable cultural value) of national importance. The church building is built in the likeness of a cathedral church - three naves with a central apse; it is called a cathedral (i.e. a church of the metropolitan in the city seat of the diocese), but it has no such status (because the seat of the diocese is in Sliven). It is 33 meters high and is located in the center of the city, on Saint Cyril and Methodius Square, on the site of a small wooden church, which was the only Exarchist church building in the city before the Liberation. It was built in the period 1897-1907 according to the project of the Italian architect Riccardo Toscani, who worked in the city. "St. Cyril and Methodius" differs from the churches built during the so-called Bulgarian Revival and in the first years after the Liberation from Turkish slavery. The temple is a three-nave cruciform basilica, oriented along the east–west axis. The central apse with the altar and the richly decorated iconostasis are located in the eastern part of the church. The nave divides the interior of the church into three naves by means of five pairs of supporting marble columns. The central and largest dome is built over the main nave of the church; above the side two naves are built another four smaller domes. The main dome rises on a tall twelve-sided drum with windows. The narthex in the western part of the church is higher than the central nave. The central entrance is on the west facade, and the other smaller entrances on the north and south sides are only open for special ceremonies. Master Mityo Tsanev from Dryanovo and Kuzman Dimitrov from Macedonia took part in the construction of the church. The brothers Cyril and Methodius are depicted on the beautiful stained glass window at the main entrance of the church. The church was painted by the artists Gyuzhenov and Kozhuharov, who also painted the national cathedral "St. Alexander Nevsky" in Sofia. History The history of the church building is connected with Father Georgi Stoyanov Djelebov, who donated his own house to build the first Bulgarian church building in Burgas, even though he had 8 children. Father Georgi developed apostolic activity for the recognition of the Bulgarian cause and the establishment of the Bulgarian church in the entire Burgas region - from the region of Anchialo (Pomorie), the region of Mesemvria (Nessebar), through the region of Malko Tarnovo, to the region of Lozengrad, visiting over 300 villages. Visiting the villages in the region of Malko Tarnovo and Lozengrad, he worked together with Father Petko Georgiev Popov, a zealous supporter of the Bulgarian identity, to establish church independence. The apostolic activity of the two priests began in 1867 and continued until the final inclusion of the Bulgarian population to the Bulgarian cause and the Bulgarian church, touring the area in most cases on foot, winter, summer, in cold, heat and rain - this is what the historian Georgi pop Ayanov wrote in his book "Malko Tarnovo i..." as early as 1939. Father Petko G. Popov founded 2 churches in 1879 (which are still active today), and together with teacher Kiro Petrov Mostrov created the first school, laying the foundations of a beautiful and attractive town on the Southern Black Sea coast - Primorsko. On May 24, 1868, in Burgas, they made the second serious attempt to celebrate the memory of the brothers Cyril and Methodius, after the first attempt was failed by the Greek priests, who closed the church and went out of town, even though they were officially invited to the service. For the celebration of the so-called all-Slavic holiday in 1868, Father Georgi decided not to seek the assistance of the Greek priests. This first celebration of the holy brothers takes place outdoors outside the city, near the windmill of Hristo Borata (Borata's Mill). Then it was somewhere in the area of today's Third Polyclinic, near General Gurko Street. Father Georgi stood at the head of the new church-school board, organized by him, and already at the first meeting of the board, a decision was made to find funds through subscriptions and donations to open a Bulgarian school and church, and for this purpose he gave up his own house in Burgas, at the place where today stands the church "St. St. Cyril and Methodius". After some adaptation, the church and the school were already ready for service in them, and in 1869 the first church service was performed in the so-called Church Slavonic language (Old Bulgarian language) by Father Georgi. In the same year, 1869, the Bulgarian school was reopened, and Boyan (Stiliyan) Keremidchiev from Yambol was appointed as a teacher, and Father Dimitar from Karnobat was invited as a priest. Father George devoted himself to apostolic service for the spiritual and political liberation of his brothers. He believes that spiritual liberation must precede political liberation. When in 1869-1870 it was discussed that the issuing of a Sultan's firman for the establishment of a Bulgarian exarchy was imminent, Father Georgi again went out to the villages and outside the Burgas district, but also to all the southern districts of the former Burgas district, to collect signatures and stamps for the famous mahzyars (petitions) to the sultan, with which the secession of the Bulgarians from the Greek patriarchate was openly sought. Father Georgi's great merit was not only in his active participation in the church struggle, but also in his concern that he opened Bulgarian churches and schools, placed teachers and priests in all the villages, more than 300, which he was able to visit in his tour. Renovation In 2010, the construction of an underground parking lot began on the St. Cyril and Methodius Square located next to the church. Excavation and pumping of groundwater during the construction caused the foundation of the church building to settle and significant cracks in its structure, due to which the church was closed in 2011. In 2015, the walls of the church were strengthened using a high-tech method with carbon fibers. Tensioners have also been installed, which tighten the walls and absorb the tension in the event of an earthquake. Such tensioners are also installed in the inner part of the church. Since the construction is of stone masonry without structural elements, in order to ensure good stability of the church, holes were dug under its foundation, in which pressure-cast concrete piles (about 150 pieces with a length of 8 to 12 m and a diameter of 1, 5m). The author of the project for the strengthening is Prof. Yordan Milev. The frescoes were removed for restoration even before the strengthening of the interior walls, domes and arches of the church began. The frescoes are in a restoration workshop where they will be cleaned and processed before being returned to their places. The separation and processing of the surface plaster was carried out using a special technology in order to avoid possible damage to the frescoes during the repair work inside the church building. The fragments with images of saints and biblical scenes that are being restored have a total area of over 200 m2. The Church of "Saints Cyril and Methodius" reopens its doors after the large-scale renovation for the holiday of Burgas - Nicholas Day in 2016.

Living Word Reformed Episcopal Church

Living Word Reformed Episcopal Church (formerly known as St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Sandwick) is a historic Anglican and Presbyterian church near Courtenay, British Columbia, in the Comox Valley region of Vancouver Island. Built in 1877 and one of the oldest surviving structures in Courtenay, the church has been listed since 2009 on the City of Courtenay Heritage Register. History The church was built in 1877 by pioneer settlers on Mission Hill; the settlers came from New Brunswick and were Presbyterians of Scottish descent. Logs were harvested on the beach and milled locally into lumber. The frame was raised during a work bee. The church was built at the same time as St. Andrew's Anglican Church in Courtenay, after the Presbyterians and Anglicans had shared a log church for the previous decade. As the Comox Valley grew, new Presbyterian churches were established out of St. Andrew's. The Bay Church was built in Comox in 1901 and St. George's Presbyterian Church was built in Courtenay in 1913. After the formation of the United Church of Canada in 1925, all three churches became points of the same charge. After declining attendance, the St. Andrew's congregation was amalgamated with the Comox church in 1961 and the Mission Hill church was disused. In 2001, Living Word Church was begun as an independent, lay-led congregation meeting in the historic church. In 2002, the congregation was received into the Reformed Episcopal Church's Diocese of Western Canada and Alaska and the Rev. Bill Hedges was ordained to serve as Living Word's first minister. Architecture Designed in a vernacular style, the church building is a simple, one-and-a-half-storey rectangular structure with a gabled roof. It remains situated on its original site surrounded by a grove of mature Garry oaks and a historic cemetery. The exterior is sided with shiplap and the roof is made of hand-split cedar shingles. The interior floors were made of spruce. The original hand-built pews are still in use in the church.

American Trial: The Eric Garner Story

American Trial: the Eric Garner Story is a 2019 unscripted narrative film directed by Roee Messinger. The film shows the trial that could have happened following the killing of Eric Garner at the hands of the police in the infamous police brutality case that took place in Staten Island, New York on July 17, 2014. Daniel Pantaleo, the policeman that held Eric Garner in what proved to be a lethal chokehold was never prosecuted for any crime. The film shows the trial that could have followed Garner's death if the New York City Grand Jury had decided to prosecute the police officer. Messinger used the real witnesses who would have testified had the case been tried, including an eye witness, forensic pathologists and police use of force experts as well as real criminal attorneys. The film premiered at the 2019 New York Film Festival to rave reviews and was later distributed by Passion River Films during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Clube Juvenil headquarters are located in the Brazilian city of Caxias do Sul, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. It was built in 1928 and listed as a municipal heritage site in 2007. The club Clube Juvenil is one of the most traditional recreational associations in Caxias do Sul. It was founded on June 19, 1905, by Carlos Giesen, Henrique Moro and Américo Ribeiro Mendes under the name Club Juvenil. The festive inauguration took place on July 23, 1905, and the first gala ball was held on December 31. The association's first headquarters were based in José Bragatti's townhouse. In 1912, the first proper building was inaugurated. It consisted of a wooden and masonry house in Andrade Pinto Street, now Os 18 do Forte Street, which operated until 1924, when a fire destroyed it. Construction began on a new venue under the design of Silvio Toigo. Until the closing of the clubhouse in 2019, it regularly held cultural events for the local community, such as art exhibitions, concerts and literary soirees, besides its exclusive social and recreational activities for members. Historic building The building was designed by Silvio Toigo and inaugurated on September 8, 1928, with two floors and a basement. The third floor was built between 1962 and 1965. In 1990, the exterior of the building was restored and painted. In 2001, the Intermediate Hall underwent renovations to restore the space. Known as the Golden Hall, its location on the second floor offers access to the Hall of Honor, which features a gallery of photos of the club's founders and presidents, and the Queens' Gallery. The interior contains several rooms and halls reserved for various uses. The basement housed a restaurant, the collection rooms and the Pelourinho nightclub. On the first floor, there was a bombonière, a secretariat and rooms for recreational games. On the upper floors, there were two large party rooms, one seating 200 people and the other 400. On December 12, 2007, the historic building was listed as a landmark site by the Caxias do Sul City Hall. In 2019, the building was closed to the public and its activities were suspended. The restaurant was closed and the building was put up for rent in 2021. The administration claimed to be unable to afford the maintenance of the building and hoped that the rental income would help solve the problems.

Impofu Wind Power Farms Complex

The Impofu Wind Power Farms Complex (IWPFC), is a cluster of three wind power plants under construction in South Africa. The power stations together with the associated high-voltage substations and of 132 kV overhead power lines are expected to generate 330 MW of power. The power is then expected to be transmitted to Secunda in Mpumalanga, where the French industrial group Air Liquide, will use the power in the largest oxygen-production plant in the world, that is located there. The power will be transmitted from the wind farms to the off-taker by Eskom, the national electricity utility company under a long-term "wheeling agreement". Location The three power stations, "Impofu East Wind Power Station", "Impofu West Wind Power Station" and "Impofu North Wind Power Station" are located in Impofu, in Kouga Municipality, Sarah Baartman District, in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. Humansdorp, the nearest large town is located approximately , by road, west of Gqeberha, the nearest large city. This is about , by road, east of Cape Town, the second largest city in South Africa. Overview The power stations complex is owned and is under development by Enel Green Power, the 100 percent subsidiary of the Italian energy conglomerate Enel. The design calls for three adjacent wind farms, with a total of 57 wind turbines, each rated at 5.8 MW. A total of eight high-voltage substations and approximately of 132kV high voltage overhead transmission line will deliver the 330 MW of power generated here, to a location where it will enter the Eskom grid. The power stations occupy 12 pieces of land and the power line sits on 87 separate pieces of real estate, all leased from local farmers. In Secunda, the power supplied is expected to power the 16 "air separation units" (ASUs) operated by the French industrial group Air Liquide, to produce oxygen. Development Red Cap Energy (Pty) Limited (RCEPL), a South African renewable energy development company based in Cape Town, has been working on this project for at least 10 years before construction began. In 2017, RACEPL hired Zutari, a South African consulting engineering firm to carry out environmental impact assessments (EIAs) for the three Impofu wind farms, and for a 120 km-long 132 kV overhead high-voltage power line to Port Elizabeth. Construction costs The construction budget is estimated at ZAR:9 billion (approx. US$480 million).

The Hunt (play)

The Hunt is a play by the British playwright David Farr. The modern day parable revolves around a school teacher who is wrongly accused of sexual abuse. The play is based off the 2012 film of the same name directed by Thomas Vinterberg. Directed by Rupert Goold, it also features a leading performance from Tobias Menzies as well as scenic design by Es Devlin. It received its premiere at the West End's Almeida Theatre in June 2019 and had its New York transfer at St. Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn, New York City, in 2024. Synopsis In a small town in northern Denmark, the children celebrate Harvest Festival. A man, Lucas is going through a tough divorce fighting for child custody of his sun. He works as a school teacher for an elementary school where he is popular amongst kids, staff and parents until he is wrongly accused of sexual abuse. The small town community closes in on Lucas. Cast and characters Production history 2019 National Theatre The production was first helmed at the Almeida Theatre which ran from June 17 through August 3 in 2019. It starred Tobias Menzies, Poppy Miller, and Michele Austin and was directed by Rupert Goold. It was written by David Farr who adapted the play off the 2012 Danish film of the same name directed by Thomas Vinterberg and written by Vinterberg and Tobias Lindholm. The scenic designer was Es Devlin with the light design by Neil Austin and sound and composition work being done by Adam Cork. 2024 NYC transfer In 2024 it was announced the New York transfer of The Hunt would be at St. Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn, New York. Performances ran from February 16 through March 24. Returning to the production was its director Rupert Goold and star Tobias Menzies. Replacements included Lolita Chakrabarti taking over for Michele Austin who took a role in Lucy Prebble's The Effect at the The Shed. Poppy Miller was replaced by MyAnna Buring with Adrian Der Gregorian and Danny Kirrane both returning. Reception The debut production at the Almeida Theatre received mixed to positive reviews. Ann Trenneman of The Daily Telegraph wrote a rave review declaring that the production was "a world-class adaptation of a dark Danish parable for our times". Michael Billington of The Guardian gave the production a mixed review, while praising it's "skillful staging" by Goold and the overall production which he called "undeniably chilling" but citing the production less favorably to the 2012 film writing, "[while] this production make rigorous viewing, I miss the sense of quotidian reality that gave the movie much of its power." Time Out criticized its direction by Goold writing, "It feels like Goold’s theatricality and the naturalistic, thriller-ish source material often work against each other." However they praised Devlin's set and Menzies' performance as standouts. Stephen Dalton of The Hollywood Reporter gave the production a mixed view writing, "It lacks some of the nuanced shadings of Vinterberg’s screenplay, veering into shouty melodrama in places. Even so, Goold’s superbly mounted production has punch, polish and contemporary resonance. It feels like a hit." The New York transfer received generally positive reviews with Robert Hofler of TheWrap citing Menzies "impressive American stage debut" and comparing the play favorably to The Children's Hour and Oleanna. Allison Considine of New York Theater Guide praised Es Devlin's set writing, "The Hunt has a best-in-class production design... All the production elements work together seamlessly to offer an immersive, almost cinematic experience". Elisabeth Vincentelli of The New York Times gave a mixed review praising its technical aspects such as Devlin's scenic design as well as its sound and lighting design but criticized Rupert Goold's heavy handed direction. She wrote, "He is a rare director in the English-speaking world who can dream up and pull off highly conceptual, wildly theatrical spectacles...Here, the staging can feel redundant especially since it is burdened with foreshadowing and obvious symbolism".

Mangkunegara V

Kanjeng Gusti Pangeran Adipati Arya Mangkunegara V was the fifth ruler of the Duchy of Praja Mangkunegaran which reigned relatively briefly (1881-1896). His birth name is Gusti R.M. Sunita, the second son of Mangkunegara IV with the second empress, R.A. Dunuk (Kg.B.R.Ay. Adipati Arya MN IV) His biological brother, G.R.M. Prabu Sudibya, who was prepared by Mangkunegara IV to replace him as the holder of the throne, turned out to die at the age of a teenager, so it was Sunita who was later prepared as the heir to the throne. Mangkunegara V was replaced by his younger brother, G.R.M. Suyitna, as Mangkunegara VI, considering that his eldest son had not reached maturity at the time of his death. Of his sons who have the potential to replace his position, there are two, namely KPH.Suryakusuma as the eldest son of Mangkunegara V with the nicknames BRM Samekto and RMA. Suryasuparta. The two sons of Mangkunegara V on historical fact did not replace his father as Mangkunegara VI because the throne then fell to the younger brother Mangkunegara V namely RM.Suyitno who replaced his brother to Mangkunegara VI.

Ministry of Information (Sudan)

The Ministry of Information () in Sudan, previously known as the Ministry for Culture and Information (), is a governmental organisation that oversees the management and distribution of information related to the nation's affairs. The structure of this ministry has seen numerous alterations over time. History The media landscape in Sudan began in 1930 with the establishment of the first press and publications law, marking the initiation of media activities under the Public Liaison Office of the Sudanese Government. This period also saw the introduction of touring cinema. Significant developments continued with the establishment of Radio Hona Omdurman in April 1940, shortly after the end of the World War II, and the creation of a Photography Department, followed by a Film Production Department within the Public Liaison Office. The media in Sudan has been deeply intertwined with the country's struggle for national liberation and identity since its inception. Post-independence, the media sector was incorporated into the national ministry framework, reflecting its importance in the newly independent nation. In 1954, during the transitional period to self-rule, the Ministry of Social Affairs was created from the Liaison Office, with Yahya Al-Fadhli becoming the first minister in this role. Significant milestones include partnerships with foreign entities like the McCorquodale Printing Press in 1955, and leadership changes that saw figures like Ziadeh Othman Arbab and Muhammad Ahmed Abu Sun guide the ministry through periods of political transition. The ministry evolved through various name changes and expansions in its scope, including the significant addition of the Television Administration in 1962 and the establishment of the National Theatre. The media's governance structure underwent several transformations, reflecting the political shifts within Sudan, from the Ministry of Information and Labour (1964) to the Ministry of National Guidance, and eventually to the Ministry of Culture and Information. These changes encompassed the establishment of new departments and initiatives aimed at enriching the cultural and informational landscape of the country, including the National Council for Arts and Letters and various media training institutes. Throughout the years, the ministry has overseen the creation of regional radio stations, the launch of National Unity Radio, and the establishment of departments focused on children's culture and media professional training. Leadership transitions have often coincided with broader political changes, influencing the ministry's direction and priorities. The era of national salvation (1989 to 2019) introduced further reorganisations and the establishment of additional regional radio stations, continuing the expansion and diversification of Sudan's media infrastructure. Vision According to the ministry, the ministry's vision is to build an efficient, free, and capable information system. Its mission encompasses expressing the diversity of Sudan to reinforce national unity, establishing the concept of identity and belonging, deepening religious values, showcasing the positive image of Sudan externally, and advancing the information system. The ministry aims to develop a robust information infrastructure, establish a partnership between the state and the private sector in terms of information instruments, ensure all of Sudan is covered with information, and provide citizens with information.

Kurixalus chaseni, the frilled tree frog or Malay frilled tree frog, is a species of frog in the family Rhacophoridae. It is endemic to Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand, where it has been observed between 0 and 500 meters above sea level. This frog has been found in forests primary forest and long-growing secondary forest. This frog is known in swampy areas with water stagnant water. Scientists believe this frog can tolerate some level of habitat disturbance. It has been seen by roadsides. Scientists classify this frog as at least concern of extinction because of its large range, which includes protected parks, and presumed large population. What threat it faces comes from habitat loss associated with deforestation associated with forest concession and palm oil cultivation Original description References Frogs of Asia Amphibians described in 2018 Endemic fauna of Malaysia chaseni

Line-crowned woodcreeper

The line-crowned woodcreeper (Xiphorhynchus ocellatus beauperthuysii) is a subspecies of the ocellated woodcreeper, a species of passerine birds in the family Furnariidae, pertaining to the large genus Xiphorhynchus. It is native to the northwest region of the Amazon basin in South America. Distribution and habitat Xiphorhynchus beauperthuysii has a distribution that ranges from the northeastern Amazon north of the Amazon River, to the east and southeast of Colombia, the extreme south of Venezuela (southwest of Amazonas), the eastern regions of Ecuador, the northeast of Peru and northwestern Brazil, east to the Rio Negro. Its natural habitat is the understory and the middle strata of moist broadleaf forests; in the majority of its localities, it is found in tall trees of terra firme forests. Systematics Original description X. beauperthuysii was first described by the French naturalists Jacques Pucheran and Frédéric de Lafresnaye in 1850 under thescientific name Nasica beauperthuysii. Its type locality is 'Amazonum Ripas', or the Peruvian Amazon. Etymology The masculine generic name Xiphorhynchus is composed of the Greek words "ξιφος, xiphos": sword, and "ῥυγχος, rhunkhos": the snout; meaning "with a beak in the shape of a sword". The specific name beauperthuysii commemorates the French microbiologist Louis Daniel Beauperthuy Desbonnes (1807–1871). Taxonomy The taxa is currently treated as the subspecies X. ocellatus beauperthuysii of the ocellated woodcreeper (Xiphorhynchus ocellatus), which is identified in the southern regions of the Amazon river as based on its initial classifications, but at one point was recognized as a separate species by Birds of the World (HBW), Birdlife International (BLI) and the Comité Brasileño de Registros Ornitológicos (CBRO), based on the significant genetic divergences encountered in a multilocular phylogenetic analysis of Xiphorhynchus pardalotus/ocellatus completed by Sousa-Neves et al (2013). However, the separation of species was not recognized by the Comité de Clasificación de Sudamérica (SACC), which declined Proposition N° 600 that proposed the separation of X. ocellatus into three species, citing insufficient published data. The main reason cited by Birds of the World justifying the separation of species, apart from genetic evidence, is the notable differences in vocalization between birds in the north and birds in the south of the Amazon River. The epithet beauperthuysii replaces the previously used name weddellii, since the latter had a vaguely defined type locality, which would later be used to refer to X. ocellatus. Subspecies According to Birds of the World, two subspecies of X. ocellatus that may be termed as "line-crowned woodcreepers" are recognized, but the subspecies Xiphorhynchus ocellatus lineatocapilla is barely considered a holotype, with an uncertain distribution.

Orthognathotermes heberi

Orthognathotermes heberi is a species of termite found in Brazil. Taxonomy The species is named after Heber Silva de Oliveira, who has contributed significantly to the protection of the Emas National Park, where it is found. Description Morphology Orthognathotermes heberi has an orange-yellow head capsule and clypeus, with ferruginous labrum, antennae, and labial and maxillary palps. The mandibles are black, merging to chestnut brown basally. The head is barrel-shaped when viewed from above, with sparse, short hairs on the head capsule. The labrum is trilobate, and the mandibles are somewhat asymmetrical, with the left mandible being two-thirds the length of the right one. Each mandible is elbowed outwards, with a sharp cutting edge and a stout, inwardly bent point. The basal portion of the left mandible is thicker than that of the right. The species is primarily transparent, with off-white body and legs. Specimens of O. heberi were initially described with a unique feature: a significant difference in soldier morphology, termed "major soldiers" and "minor soldiers" by the authors. This was later understood to be a result of parasitism by Acanthocephala, a fact that was not recognized by Raw & Egler in 1985. Subsequent research found similar parasites in other termite species, but their exact identity remains unknown. A 2009 revision clarified that the "minor soldiers" were actually individuals infested by an unidentified species of Acanthocephala, indicating that the soldier caste is monomorphic. O. heberi is most similar morphologically to O. gibberorum and can be distinguished by several key characteristics. O. gibberorum has a deeper sagittal furrow down the back of the head, a more orange head capsule, less bulging and more tapering sides of the head, and yellow-white tergal bristles, among other differences. Distribution All documented occurrences of O. heberi are in open landscapes, such as pastures and cerrados. Behavior and ecology Nests The species builds subconical nests, up to 25 cm high and 50 cm in diameter, often covered with loose soil particles and grass. These nests are commonly found in the grasslands near the park's main building. O. heberi can also occupy nests built by other termite species, such as Cornitermes cumulans.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophia%2C%20a%20Person%20of%20Quality

Sophia, a Person of Quality

"Sophia, a Person of Quality" was a pen name used by the author of two English protofeminist treatises published in the mid-18th century, following a period trend of women's histories and political tracts arguing in favor of equal rights known as the . The first tract under the Sophia name, Woman Not Inferior to Man, was published in 1739. Largely adapting François Poullain de la Barre's 1676 De l’Égalité des deux sexes ("On the Equality of the Two Sexes"), Sophia expands on the text using Cartesian rhetoric to attack male superiority, with a focus on establishing the equality of women's abilities with men, as well as stating that women hold an inherent moral superiority. Following the publication of 1749 anonymous rebuttal tract Man Superior to Woman, Sophia wrote a follow-up tract titled Woman’s Superior Excellence Over Man. Published in 1740, the text accepts the rebuttal's challenge to prove the moral superiority of women in order to justify women's rights. All three of these tracts were later compiled and published as a single volume in 1751, entitled Beauty’s Triumph. The identity of Sophia remains uncertain and subject to scholarly dispute. Lady Mary Wortley Montagu and Sophia Fermor, the second wife of John Carteret, have both been proposed as the author of the tracts, although little evidence ties them to their creation. Alternate theories regarding the authorship of the tracts, such as their creation by a male author or two separate individuals, have also been proposed. Although older scholarship accused her of plagiarizing much of her work (Poullain was not attributed within the texts), she has been described as advancing many of the protofeminist concepts advocated by Poullain, and adapting the text with much more forceful and pointed language. Background Following the English Civil War and the Glorious Revolution, the participation of women within political writing in Great Britain greatly increased. Many aristocratic women engaged in politics through their access to political figures in recreational and ceremonial contexts. A genre of women's history writing gained popularity during the period, often focusing on the biographies of "women worthies", historically renowned women such as Sappho and Joan of Arc. Additionally, a number of tracts advocating for greater social and political status of women begun to appear in the early 1700s, preempting the greater expansion of the early feminist movement in the latter portion of the century. Such positions were often referred to under the label of the , Protofeminist writers such as Mary Astell and Mary Chudleigh published a number of such tracts in the late 17th and early 18th century, preempting the general expansion and development of feminist thought following the publication of Mary Wollstonecraft's 1792 Vindication of the Rights of Woman. Works The "Sophia, a Person of Quality" moniker is used on two protofeminist treatises, the 1739 Woman Not Inferior to Man and the 1740 Woman's Superior Excellence Over Man, collectively referred to as the "Sophia pamphlets". Older scholarship interpreted Sophia's works as essentially a translation of French Cartesian philosopher François Poullain de la Barre's 1676 protofeminist tract, De l’Égalité des deux sexes ("On the Equality of the Two Sexes"), previously translated into English in 1677 under the title Woman as Good as the Man. Due to the large volume of shared text between the two tracts and De l’Égalité, a 1916 historical account described Sophia as a "rank impostor" and her plagiarism as "one of the cleverest hoaxes of her time." 56 paragraphs in Woman Not Inferior to Man and 54 in Woman's Superior Excellence Over Man are largely based on Poullain, without any attribution. Later scholarship has extended greater recognition to Sophia's adaptation of the text, noting significant expansion on Poullain's theories of gender equality, as well as a more confrontational writing style, embellishing the base text with the "violence of her vocabulary". Sophia has been described as significantly advancing and asserting protofeminist thought still undeveloped within the original work. Woman Not Inferior to Man The first tract authored by "Sophia, a Person of Quality" was published in 1739 by John Hawkins, a London-based book publisher, and sold for a price of one shilling. Fully titled Woman Not Inferior to Man: A Short and Modest Vindication of the Natural Right of the Fair-Sex to a Perfect Equality of Power, Dignity, and Esteem, with the Men, the work forms a critique of male superiority and dominance over women, and argues that women are just as, if not significantly more, suited for essentially any public office or position of authority usually occupied by men. Sophia uses both Lockean and Cartesian rhetoric to attack male superiority. Largely adhering to Poullain's Cartesianism and its mind–body dualism, she raises that men and women share fundamentally identical minds despite differences that exist in body. Lockean political rhetoric, with its focus on as an unjustified and arbitrary tyranny, while also positing that women hold an inherent moral superiority over men. She notes that relatively little physical distinction exists between men and women, with women denied advanced positions in society purely through men's prejudice. While largely adapted from Poullain's De l’Égalité, Sophia's text significantly expands on some portions of the work, adding quotations from English figures such as Nicholas Rowe and Alexander Pope. Sophia's adaptation of the text, described as "highly personal [and] disarmingly frank", creates a significantly increased focus on male position within present society, to the expense of Poullain's focus on the historical trajectory of gender. Unlike Poullain, she frequently speaks of the inherent generosity of women and the "ungenerous nature" of men, and uses significantly more intense and pointed language, such as variably describing male dominance over women as slavery, tyranny, and "lawless usurpation". A greater focus on the dignity of women is a persistent theme across the text. However, modern scholarly analysis has critiqued Sophia as failing to develop many of Poullain's ideas, as well as her exclusion of Poullain's arguments against all arbitrary power more broadly. Woman’s Superior Excellence Over Man Within the year of the publication of Woman Not Inferior to Man, an anonymous rebuttal (the pamphlet credited to simply "a Gentleman") was published in response, entitled Man Superior to Woman: A Vindication of Man's Natural Right of Sovereign Authority Over the Woman. Like Sophia's previous tract, it was published by John Hawkins in London. The tract argued that women could not claim equality unless they could prove that they were superior to men. Sophia accepted the anonymous challenge in a tract published the following year, Woman's Superior Excellence Over Man. Like Poullain, Sophia drew on the lives of the famed historical "woman worthies" in some of her arguments, while also including more contemporary women into this category, such as Elizabeth Singer Rowe and Anne Finch. Sophia described the historical record of women as itself disproving claims of male dominance. A consistent claim made throughout the text is that men exercise tyranny over and enslave women, tapping into the popular anti-tyranny discourse of the period in Britain, such as the work of John Locke. Sophia argues that men achieved this position of tyrannical dominance through "fraud and violence", and while they maintain this position through brute force, women continue to hold the moral superiority and right to reassert dominance. Although rejecting any sort of violent or coerced overthrow of male power, Sophia advocates for women to claim a peaceful "right to re-entry" into power due to their superiority of virtue. Later republications Both of the Sophia tracts, alongside the anonymous Man Superior to Woman, were republished and sold by J. Robinson in the 1751 compilation Beauty’s Triumph: Or, The Superiority of the Fair Sex Invincibly Proved. The revised version of Woman Not Inferior to Man included within the compilation features an expanded list of historically notable women. In this edition, Sophia writes that she wished to write a "a parallel history of the most eminent persons of both sexes in past ages, for virtue or vice", although this proposed work was never published. Identity The identity of 'Sophia' remains unknown, although both contemporary and modern sources have proposed possible identifications. Anonymous publication was extremely common in the 18th century, with many prominent authors initially publishing anonymously early in their careers or in the first edition of their texts. Over 80% of novels in the mid-to-late 18th century were published anonymously. The only identifying information given by Sophia is her gender and elevated social status, a guardian referred to as Honorio, a writing master known as Claudio, and her self-description as a "young lady". Lady Mary Wortley Montagu has been proposed as a candidate, although she was in her 50s by the publication of the tracts. Further discrediting this theory is Sophia's expressed distaste for Gilbert Burnet, a figure admired by Montagu. Sophia Fermor, the second wife of John Carteret, 2nd Earl Granville, has also been proposed, although little ties her to the tracts beyond the name Sophia. The theory that Sophia may have been a man has been proposed, as well as the possibility that Woman Not Inferior to Man and Woman’s Superior Excellence Over Man were actually written by different individuals, despite the shared pen name. Legacy Another pamphlet largely translating Poullain's work, Female Rights Vindicated; or the Equality of the Sexes Morally and Physically Proved, was published anonymously in 1758. In a lengthy preface, the text reuses many of Sophia's tactics, including drawing on historical women to prove female equality to men. This tract was republished in 1780 under the name Female Restoration, by a Moral and Physical Vindication of Female Talents. Notes References Citations Bibliography Further reading Nadelhaft, Jerome.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloster%20P.370

Gloster P.370

The Gloster Aircraft P.370 was the first in a series of designs for an improved supersonic-capable version of the Gloster Javelin aircraft. Depending on the source, it is also known as the F.153D, after its Air Ministry issued Operational Requirement, or the thin-wing Javelin or Super Javelin in other sources. The ultimate development of the design series was the P.376. It featured a thinner wing and area ruled fuselage to lower wave drag, more power provided by Bristol Olympus engines, and new intakes to improve airflow to the engines at supersonic speeds. These changes were expected to allow the design to reach Mach 1.6 at altitudes up to while carrying two of the very large Red Dean missiles. The first of two prototypes was being completed when the project was cancelled in early 1957 in favour of purchasing the Canadian Avro Arrow. This purchase was later cancelled due to delays in that program. The money from these two projects was then directed towards the Operational Requirement F.155 designs, only to have that project cancelled later in the year in the aftermath of the release of the 1957 Defence White Paper. History Javelin developments The Gloster Javelin, ordered into production in 1953, was the RAF's first purpose-designed all-weather jet fighter and equipped with air-to-air missiles, but suffered from high transonic wave drag due to the thick cross-section of its wing limiting its speed. Gloster had been exploring this problem for some time and offered an enlarged, thinned and lengthened outer wing section as part of their P.350 model, a photo-reconnaissance (PR) variant. This proved interesting enough for the Air Ministry to offer requirement F.118D around the design. At a design conference on 12 May 1953 with Gloster, the Ministry stated that Gloster's primary aim of the work should be to improve the overall performance of the Javelin, not just the PR version. They wanted more engine power, the ability to carry more armament, and the improved Airborne Interception Mk18 (AI.18) radar. Estimates suggested that the design would be able to reach Mach 1.2 to 1.3 in a dive when equipped with uprated Armstrong Siddeley Sapphire Sa.10 engines. This became the P.356 design of July 1953. A further development was P.364 of September 1953, which moved from the Sa.10 to the new Bristol Olympus Ol.6 and featured a modified vertical stabilizer suggested by the Royal Aircraft Establishment. At a meeting with the Air Ministry in January 1954, the extra power of the Olympus was considered ideal, especially as the equipment weight continued to grow. This led to the November 1954 specification F.153D for the Thin Wing Gloster All-Weather Fighter, officially released on 17 March 1955. In September 1954, P.364 became a series of three designs, P.370/371/372, differing largely in weapons fit; 370 mounted four 30 mm ADEN cannons, 371 two Red Deans, and 372 four Blue Jay missiles. The Olympus continued to improve, and by this time the Ol.7 version was capable of while the simplified Ol.7SR had reached , which would allow the design to pass Mach 1 in level flight, about Mach 1.07, and as high as 1.3 in a dive. In October 1955, Javelin FAW.1 XA564 was sent to Bristol Filton Airport to act as a testbed for the fitting of the Olympus. Other designs In the summer of 1955, the Air Staff was able to examine the all-weather development of the American McDonnell F-101 Voodoo, which was able to reach Mach 1.6. A significant reason for this difference in performance was that the P.370 series had three times the amount of wing area. This gave it much better climb and high-altitude performance, but after learning of the high-subsonic performance of the Myasishchev M-4 bomber it seemed that higher speed would be more important than higher altitude. At a meeting with Gloster on the topic, they concluded that using improved reheat on the Ol.7R, performance would increase to Mach 1.4 with a maximum altitude 66,000 ft, compared to 1.6 and 51,000 for the F-101. On this basis, the Air Ministry told Gloster to continue development, and placed an order for 18 prototypes and pre-production examples. In December 1955, at meetings in Washington DC, the Minister of Supply was given details of the Avro Canada CF-105 Arrow under development in Canada. The Minister was so impressed that he arranged for an evaluation team to visit Avro Canada in early 1956. It was known that by around 1959, new versions of the M-4 would outperform the existing Javelin unless it mounted a collision-course missile, which would allow it to attack the bomber without having to chase it. Red Dean was collision-course but was suffering from protracted development and there was no indication when it might enter service. The OR F.155 designs had the performance to chase down these aircraft but would not enter service until 1963 at the earliest. Even if 153 continued it would not be available until 1961, which left a several-year gap where the Royal Air Force would have no significant capability against Soviet bombers. Serious consideration was given to adopting the Arrow with British engines. Its Mach 2 speed meant it would be able to easily chase down the M-4 and attack it with its pursuit-course AIM-4 Falcon missiles. It would also have the performance needed to deal with known supersonic developments like the Tupolev Tu-22 and Myasishchev M-50, which they learned about in late 1954. Better yet, it was expected to be available in 1959, eliminating the performance gap before the F.155 designs entered service. P.376 In February 1956, the Ministry asked Gloster to consider additional changes to the design to further improve performance and what effect those changes might have on the timeline for delivery. Two changes were considered, modifying the fuselage to consider the area rule to further reduce drag, and further thinning the wings, especially the still-thick inner sections. The latter appeared to be difficult as it would reduce fuel capacity too much and require a structural redesign that would delay production, while the former appeared relatively simple and appeared to not affect the timeline. This resulted in the ultimate version of the design series, P.376. 376 mounted two Red Dean missiles well forward on pylons roughly mid-span on the wing. This would give it all-aspect capability against targets up to Mach 1.3. Maximum speed with 1,800 K of reheat would be Mach 1.63, improving to 1.79 at 2,000 K. It was expected that the prototype would be available in December 1958. By this time, Bristol had started a major update to the Olympus series to better compete with the upcoming Rolls-Royce Conway. The new design was roughly the same size and weight but offered significantly higher thrust. They stated the new Ol.21 engines would be available in September 1958 with production models in early 1959. The Ministry expressed some doubt about the predicted speed, given the still-thick wing, but did allow that it was still much better than P.370. Cancellation On 24 February 1956, the Air Council suggested cancelling P.376. In April, they suggested buying Arrow, as the RAF was asking for a new fighter as soon as possible before replacing it with F.155. Another Gloster proposal for a strike variant as an English Electric Canberra replacement, which led to a draft OR.328, was cancelled on 20 March 1956. In a 3 May 1956 memo, the Ministry of Supply's Walter Monckton stated "the sooner Thin Wing Javelin is dropped the happier I shall be because every week of further development is a waste of money." The project was officially cancelled on 31 May and Gloster was ordered to stop work in June. At the time, the prototype XG336 was estimated to be some 60 to 70% complete and the first production models, the XJ series, were on the production jigs. The Arrow was ultimately dropped as well due to cost and delays, which had pushed its service date further toward the F.155 schedule. It was felt that the money earmarked for Arrow was better spent on getting F.155 into service earlier and prioritizing the Saunders-Roe SR.177 jet-rocket fighter interceptor for high altitude. All of this ultimately led to nothing in the aftermath of the 1957 Defence White Paper, which cancelled all of these projects. Description The P.376 was very similar to the Javelin in overall layout, with a large delta wing and a T-tail formed of smaller delta horizontal stabilizer at the top of the vertical stabilizer. The most apparent change from the ground was the overall larger size, with the cockpit area now forward of the wing and a large extension rearward for the engines, which previously ended flush with the end of the wing. These changes increased the length of the aircraft from to . The engine intakes, which formerly faced flat to the airflow, were now angled sharply back at roughly 60 degrees. Another obvious change was the large teardrop-shaped extensions on either side of the engine nozzles, which increased the fuselage cross-section at the rear and thus helped improve the area rule considerations. Less obvious, and only really visible from above, was the wasp-waisting of the rear fuselage as part of the area rule design.

ʿAlāʾal-Dīn Abū l-Ḥassan Alī ibn Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥman ibn al-Khaṭṭāb commonly known as Alāʾal-Dīn al-Bājī () was a Sunni Egyptian scholar of Moroccan origin. He was a prominent Shafi'i jurist and considered a leading legal theoretician and Ash'arite theologian in his time. He was known as a polemicist, skilled debater, meticulous, a verifier, scrutinizer, penetrating researcher, and one of the most prominent dialecticians of his day. Life He was born in the year of 1234. He studied Shafi'i jurisprudence and its principles under Izz al-Din ibn 'Abd al-Salam in Damascus. He served as a Judge in Al-Karak during the ruling era of Baybars. In Levant, he had very close friendship and firm companionship with al-Nawawi. Later, he moved to Cairo to work as a teacher, where he got involved in politics. His most popular student was Taqi al-Din al-Subki. His companions would assert that because al-Baji was a professional jurist, he would not declare a fatwa on a matter unless he had proof of it. They also asserted he was pious and very strong in his faith. Ibn Daqiq al-'Id used to greatly glorify him by not addressing anyone to the Sultan or anyone else except by saying, “O man,” other than the two; al-Baji and Ibn al-Rif'ah by saying to al-Baji, "O Imam" and Ibn al-Rif'ah "O jurist". And he was the source of problems and debate sessions, and when Ibn Taymiyyah saw him, he frowned and did not say a word before him, so Imam 'Ala al-Din began to say: “Speak, we will discuss with you,” and Ibn Taymiyyah said: “A person like me does not speak into your hands. It is my job to benefit from you.” Al-Baji was known as the most knowledgeable person the regarding Ash'ari school of theology in his time. While he was based in Cairo and the defender of the doctrine in Egypt. There was the renowned Safi al-Din al-Hindi, the defender of the same doctrine in levant. After a long life of eighty-three years, al-Baji died in Cairo on the 6th of Dhul Qa'dah of the year 714 AH corresponding to February 1315 CE. Works He has written a number of works on jurisprudence, principles, theology, and has one work on logic. However, they did not survive. His most well-known writings are "Kashf al-Haqa'iq" ("Disclosure of the truths"), which are based on Islamic law and "Mukhtasar Ulum al-Hadith" ("Abridgement of the sciences of Hadith"). The polemical commentary "Kitab fi Naqd al-Tawrat al-Yunaniyya" on the Torah is among his most fascinating works. It consists of texts from the five books analysed to highlight discrepancies and inconsistencies. Al-Baji also frequently presents Christian beliefs in the book and refutes them in order to invalidate them. His polemic book would be heavily referenced by later Muslims in their polemic debates with Christians and Jews.

The Messthetics and James Brandon Lewis

The Messthetics and James Brandon Lewis is a collaborative studio album by American jazz fusion group the Messthetics and saxophonist James Brandon Lewis, released on March 15, 2024, through Impulse! Records. It has received positive reviews from critics. Reception In Glide Magazine, Jim Hynes wrote that this music "the intersection of free improvisation and the spirit of punk-infused rock n’ roll" and continued that "the album succeeds even more so by the shifting sonics that give way to melodies and infectious hooks". In Spin, Reed Jackson scored this release an A−, characterizing the collaboration as "volatile chemistry" that results in the rhythm section sounding more like their prior band Fugazi. Editors at Stereogum chose this as Album of the Week, where reviewer Chris DeVille wrote that the music "often operates within a jazz tradition" but also displays the musicians' other influences and this allowed him as a non-jazz critic to appreciate the songs; he ended his piece speculating that it "might just guide you somewhere new and exciting too". A feature in The Washington Post by Chris Kelly states that "Lewis’s saxophone adds a bold voice to what the trio has done previously" and notes that "the album was written and laid out to leave room for [guitarist Anthony] Pirog and Lewis to toy with melodies, trade solos and play together".

Simraungadh (medieval city)

Simraungadh, Simraungadh, Simraongarh or Simroungarh (, Devanagari: सिम्रौनगढ) was a fortified city and the main capital of the Karnats of Mithila, founded by its first ruler, Nanyadeva in 1097. At the present time, the excavations now show that city is located on the India-Nepal border although there is also a municipality by the same name in Nepal. The archaeological site is currently split between Bara district in Nepal in the north and East Champaran in Bihar, India in the south. History Harisingh Dev (r. 1295 to 1324 CE), the sixth descendant of Nanyadeva was ruling the Tirhut Kingdom. At the same time, the Tughlaq dynasty came to power and ruled the Delhi sultanate, and whole of Northern India, from 1320 to 1413 CE. In 1324 CE, the founder of the Tughlaq dynasty and Delhi Sultan, Ghiyasuddin Tughlaq turned his attention towards Bengal. The Tughlaq army invaded Bengal and on his way back to Delhi, The sultan heard about the Simraungarh which was flourishing inside the jungle. The last king of the Karnata dynasty, Harisingh Dev didn't show his strength and left the fort as he heard the news of approaching army of the Tughlaq Sultan towards the Simraungarh. The Sultan and his troop stayed there for 3 days and cleared the dense forest. Finally on day 3, the army attacked and entered the huge fort whose walls was tall and surrounded by 7 big ditches. The remains are still scattered all over the Simroungarh region. King Harisingh Deva fled northwards into the then Nepal. The son of Harisingh Dev, Jagatsingh Dev married Nayak Devi, the widowed princess of Bhaktapur. Medieval city plan and fortification The medieval city of Simraungadh was enclosed within an impressive system of earthen ramparts and infilled ditches. The fortification of the medieval city has a rectangular shape and ground plan. The fortifications of Simraungadh are called Baahi locally and remembered as a Labyrinth. The fort is spread in 6 Kos and the main enclosure is about 7.5 km north–south and 4.5 km east–west. The eastern and western sides of the fort were built over two natural embankments. The western side of the fort was dry in comparison to the eastern side. The Labyrinth and the powerful defence system of the city were well planned to protect from the river floods, and enemies and regulate agriculture from controlled flow of water from the ditches showing the ability of the Kingdom. During the reign of Rama Singh Deva (r. 1227 - 1285 CE) over Simraungadh, the Tibetan monk Dharmasvamin visited the fortified city in 1236 AD on his way back to Nepal and Tibet from Nalanda. He made the following remarks regarding the palace and fortification system of Pa-ta (Simraungadh), {{Cquote|quote=''The city was surrounded by seven tall walls, and the palace had eleven large gates and was surrounded by 21 ditches filled with water and rows of trees. The height of the city walls was equal to that of a Tibetan fort. The protective measures were taken due to Tughlaq armies, who led an army expedition but failed to reach it. After the fall and decline of the Karnat dynasty from Simraungadh, the region was either controlled by Oiniwar rulers or Makwanpur rulers until the Unification of Nepal in 1768 AD. During the period of time an Italian Missionary traveller Cassiano Beligatti, with seven other missionaries reached this place on their way to Kathmandu valley from Patna on 29 February 1740. He describes his journey on his travelling manuscript about this place is as follows, Gallery References History of Nepal History of Bihar

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal%20casting%20simulation

Metal casting simulation

Casting process simulation is a computational technique used in industry and metallurgy to model and analyze the metal-casting process. This technology allows engineers to predict and visualize the flow of molten metal, crystallization patterns, and potential defects in the casting before the start of the actual production process. By simulating the casting process, manufacturers can optimize mould design, reduce material consumption, and improve the quality of the final product. History The theoretical foundations of heat conduction, critically important for casting simulation, were established by Jean-Baptiste Joseph Fourier at the École polytechnique in Paris. His thesis "Analytical Theory of Heat," awarded in 1822, laid the groundwork for all subsequent calculations of heat conduction and heat transfer in solid materials. Additionally, French physicist and engineer Claude-Louis Navier and Irish mathematician and physicist George Gabriel Stokes provided the foundations of fluid dynamics, which led to the development of the Navier-Stokes equations. Adolph Fick, working in the 19th century at the University of Zurich, developed the fundamental equations describing diffusion, published in 1855. The beginning of simulation in casting started in the 1950s when V. Pashkis used analog computers to predict the movement of the crystallization front. The first use of digital computers to solve problems related to casting was carried out by Dr K. Fursund in 1962, who considered the penetration of steel into a sand mold. A pioneering work by J. G. Hentzel and J. Keverian in 1965 was the two-dimensional simulation of the crystallization of steel castings, using a program developed by General Electric to simulate heat transfer. In 1968, Ole Vestby was the first to use the finite difference method to program a 2D model that evaluated the temperature distribution during welding. The 1980s marked a significant increase in research and development activities around the topic of casting process simulation with contributions from various international groups, including J. T. Berry and R. D. Pielke in the United States, E. Niyama in Japan, W. Kurz in Lausanne, and F. Durand in Grenoble. An especially important role in advancing this field was played by Professor P. R. Sahm at the Aachen Foundry Institute. Key milestones of this period were the introduction of the "criterion function" by Hansen and Berry in 1980, the Niyama criterion function for the representation of central porosities in 1982, and the proposal of a criterion function for the detection of hot cracks in steel castings by E. Fehlner and P. N. Hansen in 1984. In the late 1980s, the first capabilities for simulating mold filling were developed. The 1990s focused on the simulation of stresses and strains in castings with significant contributions from Hattel and Hansen in 1990. This decade also saw efforts to predict microstructures and mechanical properties with the pioneering work of I. Svensson and M. Wessen in Sweden. Principles of casting simulation The production of casting is one of the most complex and multifaceted processes in metallurgy, requiring careful control and an understanding of a multitude of physical and chemical phenomena. To effectively manage this process and ensure the high quality of the final products, it is essential to have a deep understanding of the interaction of the various casting parameters. In this context, the mathematical modeling of casting acts as a critically important scientific tool, allowing for detailed analysis and optimization of the casting process based on mathematical principles. Mathematical modeling of casting is a complex process that involves the formulation and solution of mathematical equations that describe physical phenomena such as thermal conductivity, fluid dynamics, phase transformations, among others. To solve these equations, various numerical analysis methods are applied, among which the finite element method (FEM), finite difference method (FDM), and finite volume method (FVM) hold a special place. Each of these methods has its particular characteristics and is applied depending on the specific modeling tasks and the requirements for precision and efficiency in the calculations. Finite difference method (FDM): This method is based on differential equations of heat and mass transfer, which are approximated using finite difference relationships. The advantage of the FDM is its simplicity and the ability to simplify the solution of multidimensional problems. However, the method has limitations in modeling the boundaries of complex areas and performs poorly for castings with thin walls. The finite element method and Finite volume method (FVM): Both methods are based on integral equations of heat and mass transfer. They provide a good approximation of the boundaries and allow the use of elements with different discretizations. The main drawbacks are the need for a finite element generator, the complexity of the equations, and large requirements for memory and time resources. Modifications of the FVM: These methods attempt to combine the simplicity of the FDM with a good approximation of the boundaries of the FEM. They have the potential to improve the approximation of boundaries between different materials and phases. The analysis of different methods of mathematical modeling of casting processes shows that the finite element method is one of the most reliable and optimal approaches for casting simulation. Despite higher computational resource requirements and complexity in implementation compared to the finite difference method and finite volume method, the FEM provides high accuracy in modeling boundaries, complex geometries, and temperature fields, which is critically important for predicting defects in castings and optimizing casting processes. Application in production Computer-aided engineering (CAE) systems for casting processes have long been used by foundries around the world as a "virtual foundry workshop," where it is possible to perform and verify any idea that arises in the minds of designers and technologists. The global market for CAE for casting processes can already be considered established. Within the structure of the company for the development of the technology of a new casting, a computer-aided design department for casting processes is created, responsible for operating CAE systems for casting processes. Calculations are carried out by specialists of the department according to their job instructions, and interaction with other departments is regulated by technological design instructions. The process begins with the delivery of the 3D model and drawing of the part to the foundry technologists, who coordinate the casting configuration with the mechanical workshop and determine the margins. Then, the technology is developed in the CAE department and transferred to the foundry workshop for experimental castings. The results are monitored, and if necessary, the castings are examined in the central laboratory of the factory. If defects are detected, an adjustment of the model parameters and the technological process is made in the CAE department, after which the technology is tested again in the workshop. This cycle is repeated until suitable castings are obtained, after which the technology is considered developed and implemented in mass production. Software and tools In the modern foundry industry, software for the simulation of casting processes is widely used. Among the multitude of software solutions available, it is worth mentioning the most prominent and widely used products: Procast, MAGMASOFT, and PoligonSoft. ProCAST: a casting process modeling system using the finite element method, which provides the joint solution of temperature, hydrodynamics, and deformation problems, along with unique metallurgical capabilities, for all casting processes and casting alloys. In addition to the main aspects of casting production – filling, crystallization, and porosity prediction, ProCAST is capable of predicting the occurrence of deformations and residual stresses in the casting and can be used to analyze processes such as core making, centrifugal casting, lost wax casting, continuous casting. PoligonSoft: a casting process modeling system using the finite element method. Applicable for modeling almost any casting technology and any casting alloy. For a long time, PoligonSoft was the only casting process modeling system in the world that included a special model for calculating microporosity. To date, this model can be considered the most stable, and the results obtained with its help can satisfy the most demanding users. In many respects, PoligonSoft can be considered the Russian equivalent of the ProCAST system. MAGMASOFT: a casting process modeling system using the finite difference method. It allows analyzing thermal processes, mold filling, crystallization, and predicting defects in castings. The program includes modules for different casting technologies and helps optimize casting parameters to improve product quality. MAGMASOFT is an effective tool for increasing the productivity and quality of casting production. Future trends The simulation of the casting process reflects the user's knowledge, who decides whether the filling system has led to an acceptable result. Optimization suggestions must come from the operator. The main problem is that all processes occur simultaneously and are interconnected: changes in one parameter affect many quality characteristics of the casting. Autonomous optimization, which began in the late 1980s, uses the simulation tool as a virtual testing ground, changing filling conditions and process parameters to find the optimal solution. This allows evaluating numerous process parameters and their impact on process stability. It is important to remember that only what can be modeled can be optimized. Optimization does not replace process knowledge or experience. The simulation user must know the objectives and quality criteria necessary to achieve those objectives and formulate specific questions to the program to obtain quantitative solutions.

Kitty Kuse

Hedwig Emma Käthe "Kitty" Kuse (March 17, 1904 – November 7, 1999) was an activist for lesbian emancipation in Germany after the Second World War. She founded the first group for older lesbian women and was the founder, editor and author of the monthly magazine . Life Kitty Kuse grew up in a politically left-wing working-class milieu in Berlin Schöneberg. After elementary school and vocational training, she worked as a commercial employee. During the National Socialist era, Kitty Kuse did not join the NSDAP and did not belong to any Nazi organization. She was unemployed for a long time and later worked as a punch operator on the assembly line. She hid her sexual identity and considered adopting a male first name. A doctor from Magnus Hirschfeld's Institute for Sexual Science advised her not to do so, so that she would not be on record with the Nazis. She supported lesbians who were persecuted as Jews. She brought Gertrude Sandmann food across Berlin to the hiding place. After the Second World War, she lived in East Berlin, completed her A-levels and studied economics. Before the Wall was built, she moved to West Berlin with her partner. In the 1950s and 1960s, lesbian sexuality was not a punishable offense, "but the repression that existed under National Socialism against any lifestyle that did not correspond to the classic family image and the ideal of the housewife marriage continued. Women who loved women were subjected to massive pressure to marry, which forced them to lead a double life and to deny their sexual orientation. The taboo had such an effect that even today the words 'lesbian' or 'Lesbe' are hardly pronounceable for witnesses of this time." In the feminist movement of the 1970s, the name 'lesbian' was re-evaluated from a discriminatory to a positive, resistant term. Kuse founded the group "L 74" together with other women in November 1974. "L" stood for Lesbos, "74" for the founding year. In the group, older working or retired women initially met in the rooms of (HAW). Some of them had become acquainted with lesbian culture during the Weimar era. It was the first association of older lesbians whose realities of life differed from those of younger women in the movement. Gertrude Sandmann and her partner Tamara Streck were among the occasional collaborators. From February 1975, Kuse published the group's small-format monthly magazine , which existed until 2001. Sandmann's drawing Liebende illustrated the cover for years. The publication was intended to help make homophobia and sexism visible in society and encourage lesbian women to step out of isolation. Kuse died in Berlin, aged 95. On the commemoration of Kuse's 112th birthday, a memorial stone for her was laid as part of the 160th anniversary of the Alter St.-Matthäus-Kirchhof, Berlin, and the Berlin Women's March in 2016, to commemorate the pioneer of the lesbian movement. Eva Rieger and Christiane von Lengerke paid tribute to her life. In June 2017, a green space in Berlin-Schöneberg was named Kitty-Kuse-Platz.
