The current president is Pascal Grizot, who was elected on December 5, 2020, succeeding Jean-Lou Charon, who had been elected in 2013. In December 2024, he was re-elected as president of the French Golf Federation. History The French Golf Federation was founded on January 13, 1933, from the Union des golfs de France (UGF), which was initially established on November 24, 1912. In 1950, the federation listed 44 golf courses, a number that had nearly doubled by 1960. The 1980s marked a significant milestone with the computerization of license management and the creation of smaller structures. In 1980, La Poste issued a commemorative stamp to celebrate the federation, highlighting its national importance. In the 2000s, the federation focused on expanding access to golf. This included the introduction of programs like "Tous au golf" (Everyone to Golf), a free introductory initiative, and the creation of the first urban compact golf course in Saint-Ouen-l’Aumône in 2000. In 2011, France was designated as the host country for the 2018 Ryder Cup, a major event held at Le Golf National. In 2022, France hosted the World Amateur Team Championships at Le Golf National and Saint-Nom-la-Bretèche. In 2024, Le Golf National was the Olympic venue for the golf events of the Paris Games.

79353556	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirtonia%20curvata	Stirtonia curvata	Stirtonia curvata is a species of crustose lichen belonging to the family Arthoniaceae. It was formally described as a new species in 2009 based on specimens collected from Indonesia. Taxonomy Stirtonia curvata was described by the Dutch lichenologist André Aptroot from specimens collected by Willem Vink in 1959 near Manokwari in Irian Jaya, Indonesia. The species epithet curvata refers to the often curved shape of its . The genus Stirtonia includes lichens with distinctive areas that lack a true hymenium, have round asci, and thick-walled, septate ascospores. Description Stirtonia curvata has a crustose, smooth thallus that spreads over an area up to about 5 cm in diameter. It is typically whitish-yellow to brownish, thin (less than 0.1 mm), and somewhat shiny in appearance. The thallus contains calcium oxalate crystals, detectable under the microscope. The areas, where the reproductive structures are located, appear as angular or linear zones, branched or unbranched, slightly raised above the thallus surface, and typically measure 0.1–0.2 mm wide by up to 1 mm long. They are white, slightly fibrous (), and reveal distinct reddish-brown or black dots when abraded. No algal cells are found within these reproductive zones. Microscopically, the asci are oval-shaped, with each typically containing four to eight . The ascospores themselves are ellipsoid, measuring 35–55 μm long by 12–19 μm wide, with 7–11 transverse septa, frequently presenting a curved shape. They have thick cell walls and septa, each over 1 μm thick. When stained with iodine (the IKI test), the lower portions and the area surrounding the asci turn blue, while the upper portions react with a violet coloration. Chemically, S. curvata contains perlatolic acid, and the thallus does not react to standard chemical spot tests (C−, Pd−, K−, UV−). Habitat and distribution This lichen species is found on tree bark in lowland tropical areas. Its documented distribution includes Western New Guinea and Java, Indonesia. It grows at low elevations (around 2 meters above sea level), indicating a preference for humid, tropical environments. Given its limited records, it is considered to be locally rare or at least infrequently collected.

79353568	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirtonia%20neotropica	Stirtonia neotropica	Stirtonia neotropica is a species of crustose lichen in the family Arthoniaceae. It was first described in 2009 from specimens collected in the Neotropics, specifically from the Dutch Antilles and Costa Rica. Taxonomy Stirtonia neotropica was described as a new species by the Dutch lichenologist André Aptroot based on a specimen collected by William R. Buck in January 2008 from Quill/Boven National Park on the island of Sint Eustatius in the Dutch Antilles. The species epithet neotropica refers to its distribution in the Neotropical region, a nod to its significance as the first species of the genus Stirtonia described from the Americas. Description Stirtonia neotropica has a crustose, contiguous, and smooth thallus, spreading across areas up to 10 cm in diameter. The thallus is pale olive-colored, thin (less than 0.1 mm), and slightly glossy. This species does not contain calcium oxalate crystals, unlike several other species within the genus. Its areas, where reproductive asci are formed, are distinctly delimited as linear, branching, and interconnected () structures. These zones are white, slightly powdery (), and are flush with or only slightly raised above the surrounding thallus. When abraded, the ascigerous areas reveal conspicuous reddish-brown dots resulting from tiny crystals located above the asci. No algal cells are present within these reproductive structures. Microscopic examination reveals reddish-brown, ovoid asci arranged in lines, each typically containing eight ellipsoid ascospores. The spores measure between 35 and 38 μm in length and 10–12 μm in width, with 7–11 transverse septa. All cells within the spores are roughly equal in size and possess notably thick walls and septa exceeding 1 μm thick. This species does not show a color reaction when treated with iodine solution (IKI−). Chemically, Stirtonia neotropica contains gyrophoric acid, making it chemically distinctive among its congeners. The thallus and ascigerous zones are C+ (patchy red), but unreactive to other spot tests (Pd−, K−, and UV−). Habitat and distribution Stirtonia neotropica is documented from tropical regions in the Americas, specifically from Sint Eustatius in the Dutch Antilles and the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica. It was first collected from elevations between 200 and 300 meters above sea level, growing on tree bark. The discovery of S. neotropica in these locations marked the expansion of the known geographical distribution of the genus Stirtonia from previously recognized ranges in Asia and Africa into the Neotropics.

79353572	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizabeth%20Harcourt%20Mitchell	Elizabeth Harcourt Mitchell	Elizabeth Harcourt Mitchell (1833–1910) was a British writer. Mitchell's writing included poetry, novels, and for the periodical press. Her work was praised, including after her death. Personal life Mitchell was born in London on December 15, 1833, to Welsh actor and singer John E. W. Roll and Elizabeth Mary Long. Her family was known for including wealthy amateur authors. She wrote songs for her father to sing, and she composed prologues for his private plays. Mitchell traveled to France, Spain, Portugal, Holland, and more as a passenger of her father's yacht. She learned how to landscape and paint architecture. Mitchell was part of the Society of Lady Artists. She married Frank Johnstone Mitchell in 1860, and they had two daughters. Mitchell was a devout churchgoer, and she was upset when women were banned from joining church councils. Women were excluded despite outnumbering male churchgoers in London in any religious denomination. She tried to stop women from being excluded, but she was unable to do so. Career Mitchell's writing included poetry, novels, and for the periodical press. Her fiction was often religious. Her first work was a volume of poems titled First Fruits. She wrote A Short Church History which was used as a textbook for pupil teachers. The Times said that her book The Beautiful Face has a "strong infusion of religious teaching" and "is a good bit of work in its particular class." In a review of Wild Thyme: Verses, The Athenaeum said "Mrs. Mitchell is more shallow and finical than Gerda Fay; but her versification is correct, and she also thinks like a clever, pious woman." Bookseller and the Stationery Trades' Journal wrote that A Diamond Ring: A Tale "is quite equal to her previous works, and will no doubt secure a considerable circle of readers". Death She died in 1910 and most of the parish attended her funeral. Mitchell's obituary described her as "a very accomplished artist" and a "voluminous writer, chiefly on religious subjects".

79353585	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirtonia%20schummii	Stirtonia schummii	Stirtonia schummii is a crustose lichen belonging to the family Arthoniaceae. It was described as new to science in 2009. The species is notable as the first of the genus Stirtonia to be described from Africa. Taxonomy The species was described by the Dutch lichenologist André Aptroot based on specimens collected by Felix Schumm and J.P. Frahm in September 2008 from Anse Lazio, on the island of Praslin in the Seychelles. Aptroot named the species after Felix Schumm, recognizing his contribution to collecting the type specimen and preparing associated illustrations. Description Stirtonia schummii is characterized by a crustose, smooth, contiguous thallus that spreads up to 5 cm in diameter. It is thin (less than 0.1 mm), pale to dirty whitish in color, and slightly glossy. The thallus contains calcium oxalate crystals, a common trait within the genus. The areas, which contain the reproductive structures, are distinct and typically rounded or slightly elongated, measuring about 0.3–0.8 mm in diameter. They are prominently raised above the surrounding thallus, white, and have a slightly powdery surface (). When abraded, these zones show subtle brownish dots. Microscopically, the asci appear brown in surface view and are ovoid, each containing eight . The spores of S. schummii are ellipsoid, measuring between 36 and 45 μm long and 12–15 μm wide, and typically contain 7–9 transverse septa. The cell walls and septa are thick, each greater than 1 μm in width. The ascigerous areas show a positive blue reaction when stained with iodine (IKI+). Chemically, this lichen contains perlatolic acid. It does not have any color reactions when tested with standard spot tests. Habitat and distribution Stirtonia schummii has been documented in the Seychelles, specifically on the islands of Praslin and Mahé. The type specimen was collected from shrubs at coastal locations. The discovery in Seychelles represents the first record of the genus Stirtonia from Africa.

79353602	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stirtonia%20psoromica	Stirtonia psoromica	Stirtonia psoromica is a corticolous (bark-dwelling) crustose lichen in the family Arthoniaceae. It was described as a new species in 2009 based on specimens collected in Thailand. Taxonomy Stirtonia psoromica was first described from material collected by Pat Wolseley and Begoña Aguirre-Hudson in 1991 at Doi Suthep, Chiang Mai province, Thailand. The species epithet psoromica refers to the presence of psoromic acid, a secondary metabolite characteristic of this lichen. Description The thallus of Stirtonia psoromica is crustose, contiguous, smooth, and spreads up to 5 cm in diameter. It is thin (less than 0.1 mm thick), dirty white in color, and somewhat shiny. The presence of calcium oxalate crystals in the thallus is characteristic, although the thallus does not react with iodine (IKI−). areas are distinct, rounded, or slightly elongated, measuring about 0.3–0.7 mm in diameter. They are prominently elevated above the thallus surface, white, and lightly powdery (). When damaged, these areas show subtle black dots, indicating underlying crystals. Algal cells are absent from the ascigerous areas. Microscopic features include black, ovoid asci visible on the surface, each containing eight . The spores are large and (spindle-shaped), measuring approximately 75–87 μm long by 12–16 μm wide. They typically have 7–9 transverse septa with cells roughly equal in size. Spore walls and septa are notably thick, each exceeding 1 μm. The ascigerous zones give a positive blue reaction with iodine (IKI+). Chemically, S. psoromica contains psoromic and conpsoromic acids. When tested chemically, the thallus gives a positive yellow reaction with para-phenylenediamine (Pd+ yellow) but no reactions to other tests (C−, K−, and UV−). Habitat and distribution Stirtonia psoromica is known from Thailand, where it was originally discovered near Doi Suthep in Chiang Mai Province, and subsequently also recorded in Uthai Thani Province. It grows on bark at tropical altitudes, suggesting a preference for humid, forested environments. The species is considered locally rare.

Born at Hudson, New Hampshire in 1858, he was a relative of American newspaper publisher Horace Greeley. He moved to Canada in 1879, settling first in Fort Walsh and later at Maple Creek. At Maple Creek he was manager of T.C. Power's general store, and later took up ranching. He was elected to represent Medicine Hat in the 1898 North-West Territories general election, and sat as a supporter of Frederick W. A. G. Haultain's government. When the Medicine Hat riding was divided in the 1902 North-West Territories general election, Greeley ran in the new district of Maple Creek, winning reelection. When the legislature was dissolved following the creation of the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan in 1905, Greeley did not run for election to the new Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan. He then served as secretary and treasurer of Maple Creek's town government from 1906 to 1909.

79353616	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libidinal%20Types	Libidinal Types	Freud's short article Libidinal Types was the lead article in the first volume of The Psychoanalytic Quarterly. It describes a set of seven normal personality types that are derived from three main types that he considered to be normal, rather than pathological. The Typology The types are conceptually aligned with Freud's earlier work in character types, but are based on Freud's later, structural view of the mind. "According, then, as the libido is predominantly allocated to the provinces of mental apparatus, we can distinguish three main libidinal types. To give names to these types is not particularly easy; following our depth-psychology, I should like to call them the erotic, the narcissistic, and the obsessional types." While this was published as a journal article, it may also be considered as a further development of an idea Freud introduced in Civilization and Its Discontents. "Happiness... is a problem of the economics of the individual's libido... The man is who predominantly erotic will give first preference to his emotional relationships to other people; the narcissistic... man of action will never give up the external world on which he can try out his strength." Three Main Types The Erotic type describes people whose libido is predominantly aimed at love. Loving others, being loved, and the fear of loss of love. It represents the strong demands of the id. The Obsessional type describes people whose personalities are dominated by the super-ego. They fear their conscience, rather than a loss of love. They are self-reliant and conservative. (In the original 1932 English translation by Edith Jackson, this was called the compulsive type.) The Narcissistic type describes people whose main interest is self-preservation and have no tension between the ego and super-ego. They can be aggressive and not easily intimidated. Four Mixed Types Freud claimed that mixed types were far more common than unmixed types, and introduced these mixed names for the first time in this article. The Erotic-Obsessional individuals' super-ego restricts their instincts. They are the most likely to be dependent on other people and guided by memories of significant others, such as parents and teachers. The Erotic-Narcissistic personality type, which Freud believed was the most common, moderates the tension between opposites. The Narcissistic-Obsessional type strengthens the ego against the super-ego. Freud claimed this type was the most valuable culturally, because their aggressive energy is checked by conscience. Freud then claimed that the roughly equal mixture of all three main types, the Erotic-Obsessional-Narcissistic type, was the absolute normal and ideal harmony, but did not elaborate any specific traits or characteristics for this type. Relation of Libidinal Types to Pathology Toward the end of the article, Freud indicated that all the libidinal types could exist without pathology, and speculated about how normal people of different types might develop neurosis, and that extreme forms of the main types were more likely to develop neurosis than the blended types. He suggested that the erotic types would develop hysteria when they were ill, and that the obsessional types would develop obsessional neurosis, and that the narcissistic types, when frustrated, were prone to psychosis and potentially to criminality. Subsequent Development of the Typology Erich Fromm, Elias Porter, and Michael Maccoby each built on elements of the libidinal types in their work. Fromm's developments were focused on four non-productive personality types, Porter's set of seven normal types aligned with Freud's, and Maccoby focused on the application of the types in the context of leadership. The types align conceptually as presented in the table below. For Fromm, the "fundamental basis of character is not seen in various types of libido organization, but in specific kinds of a person's relatedness to the world." Fromm focused on the non-productive aspects of his typology, while positing a single productive orientation. The receptive, hoarding, and exploitative orientations aligned, respectively, with the erotic, obsessional, and narcissistic types. According to Maccoby, "The usefulness of both Freud's and Fromm's types has been limited by the negative terms that made people feel judged. Elias Porter took Fromm's types, termed them motivational systems, and made them more accessible for people to use by emphasizing their positive qualities." In Porter's typology, the erotic became altruistic-nurturing, the obsessional became analytic-autonomizing, and the narcissistic became assertive-directing. Maccoby outlined Freud's three main personality types in a Harvard Business Review article, which was then developed into the book Narcissistic Leaders where he outlined the strengths and weaknesses of leaders with each main personality type, however, with an emphasis on the value and associated risks of following (or being) a narcissist. He further developed the types with an emphasis on productive leadership personalities and renamed them caring, systematic, visionary, and adaptive. References

79353684	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economic%20Blackout	Economic Blackout	The Economic Blackout refers to a series of 24-hour consumer spending boycotts that took place on February 28, 2025, in the United States, with planned boycotts for future dates including March 28. Organized by The People's Union USA activist group, the protest encouraged Americans to refrain from making any purchases for an entire day. The initiative aimed to challenge the influence of major corporations and wealthy individuals on working-class Americans, with many boycotters joining to protest the current Trump administration's rollback of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies. While the boycott gained significant attention on social media platforms, its measurable economic impact was regarded by economic analysts as inconclusive. Background The Economic Blackout occurred within a broader context of consumer activism in early 2025, particularly focusing on corporate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies. Several major companies had recently scaled back their DEI initiatives following President Donald Trump's elimination of federal DEI programs, leading to protests and boycotts. Many targeted the retailer Target after its January 2025 announcement of reduced DEI commitments. Atlanta-based pastor Reverend Jamal Bryant organized a 40-day boycott through the website targetfast.org, that was scheduled to begin on March 5, 2025 (Ash Wednesday) and continue through the Lenten season. Separately, the National Action Network, a civil rights organization led by Reverend Al Sharpton, announced in late January 2025 that it would identify two companies for boycotts within 90 days, focusing on businesses that had abandoned their diversity pledges. Sharpton stated that while the federal government might eliminate DEI programs, consumers retained the power to choose where they shop. Organization The Economic Blackout was conceived and launched by The People's Union USA, an organization founded by Chicagoland meditation and mindfulness instructor John Schwarz. The group characterized itself as politically independent, focusing instead on representing the interests of ordinary citizens. The blackout was characterized as a means of protest against what organizers described as widespread corporate exploitation and economic inequality in the United States. The People's Union USA was formed in order to coordinate the boycott, whose stated mission was to effectively "unionize" working-class individuals across the United States to foster collective economic resistance. In a video released on February 25, Schwarz characterized the boycott as "a warning shot" to corporations that had treated Americans as "an endless source of profit" while maintaining minimal wages and lobbying for favorable political conditions. The boycott was scheduled to run for exactly 24 hours, beginning at midnight Eastern Standard Time on February 28, 2025. Participants were instructed to avoid all forms of consumer spending during this period, including in-store purchases, online shopping, fast food consumption, and vehicle refueling. For urgent needs or essential items, the organizers recommended patronizing small local businesses and preferably using cash rather than electronic payment methods. The movement also called for boycotters to skip work, if possible. The Economic Blackout concept gained traction across various social media platforms. Notable public figures who promoted the boycott including former U.S. Secretary of Labor Robert Reich. Simultaneously, the boycott faced criticism and mockery, with some opponents humorously suggesting counter-protest shopping sprees in response. Several high-profile celebrities publicly endorsed the boycott. Author Stephen King posted on his Bluesky account: "Don't buy stuff on February 28. Money's the only thing these dicks understand." Actors Bette Midler and John Leguizamo shared similar social media messages supporting the boycott. Google search analytics recorded a significant surge in queries related to "economic blackout" in the days preceding the event. Boycotts Many social media users documented their participation through video posts, including by brewing coffee at home instead of buying it, packing lunches for work, and purchasing necessities and goods in advance. The boycott intersected with another social media trend called "No Buy 2025," focused on reducing personal overconsumption throughout the year. Many boycott participants expressed support for the blackout as part of a broader commitment to redirect spending away from companies that had retreated from DEI initiatives, such as Amazon, Walmart, and Target, to Costco, which had maintained its diversity programs. The People's Union USA announced plans for another general Economic Blackout for March 28, 2025. Additionally, the organization promoted targeted weeklong boycotts against specific corporations including Walmart, Amazon (including its subsidiary Whole Foods), Nestlé, and General Mills. Impact Marketing experts offered mixed assessments of the blackout's potential impact. By midday on February 28, retail market research firm Circana reported no significant decrease in consumer spending. Marshal Cohen, the firm's chief retail advisor, indicated that after consulting with retail chain executives and receiving reports from analysts monitoring shopping centers nationwide, consumer behavior appeared largely unchanged. Cohen noted that normal daily fluctuations in shopping activity, such as those caused by weather conditions, typically account for 5-10% variation in customer traffic. Most research organizations were not specifically tracking the boycott's economic impact, due to online sales data aggregators like Adobe Analytics typically collecting spending information on a monthly basis, with exceptions made for major shopping events such as Cyber Monday. Responses When contacted by media outlets on February 27, representatives from the major corporations targeted by the boycott (Nestlé, Amazon, General Mills, Walmart, McDonald's, and Target) did not provide immediate responses regarding the planned action. Northwestern University marketing professor Anna Tuchman stated that while the single-day action might temporarily affect retail sales, it was unlikely to produce sustained changes in economic activity. University of Virginia marketing professor Young Hou stated that it would be difficult to maintain the boycotts due to the unwillingness of consumers to disrupt their spending habits for long periods, while possibly leading to counter-protests from supporters of the boycotted companies. Economic analysts drew comparisons between the Economic Blackout and the Occupy Wall Street protest movement of 2011, which emerged from public discontent following the 2008 economic recession. They noted that while Occupy Wall Street involved physical protests with demonstrators occupying public spaces for months, the Economic Blackout relied primarily on consumer inaction and digital organization.

The song was released to video streaming platform YouTube by Doechii in 2019 on her personal account @Iamdoechii, before being reuploaded to her professional account on May 14, 2020. Unlike other released versions of the song, her hook is surrounded by her own rapped verses, but similarly features a prominent sample and melody from "Somebody That I Used to Know" by Gotye and Kimbra. The song is part of mixtape Coven Music Session, Vol. 1. and recently gained traction in early 2025 on social media platform TikTok. Production Anxiety showcases Doechii's early experimental approach, blending alternative R&B, rap, and unique production elements. The accompanying music video shows Doechii in a bedroom, expressing surrealist dance moves, while occasionally cutting to clips of her singing the track. Reception Its release had limited reception, since Doechii did not have a huge following at the time. In February 2025, a couple years after its initial release, users of the app TikTok discovered the song and started creating trends that accompanied the song. Since then, demand for a streaming release have been high, with Doechii posting a video to the platform that suggest that may be happening.

The group's original members are Rico, Operator G, and Stef, and they have been joined by various artists, DJs, producers, and sound engineers throughout its twenty-year history. Their music is influenced by Jamaican reggae, 1990s British dub and urban music, sometimes even grime or steppa. Their songs are mainly written in English, sometimes French or Spanish, and have a protest and activist component. History The group originated when its members began organizing free parties in a squat area called "California". Their promoter was Asher Selector, an important figure in the Geneva music scene, who introduced them to Jamaican reggae classics: The Congos, Gladiators, Gregory Isaacs or Jah Shaka. The Sound System sound system, made up of speakers, grew as these parties developed. Later they went to play in an underground venue called Le Goulet, where they began to be influenced by the British sound system. Initially, in 2000, Rico was the selector, and from 2002 he began to create his own sounds. In 2006, they were discovered by an organizer of the Le Zoo-Usine club, a large Geneva nightclub, and began to play there as well. In 2013 they released their first single Wicked Haffi Run and the EP System Ruff / Stop Them. In 2014, the group created two own record labels, Dubquake Records and O.B.F. Records, which releases independent reggae and experimental dub music, and that same year they released their first album, Wild. 1. In 2022, Dubquake Records released the documentary Ina Vanguard Style, a tribute to the Iration Steppas sound system from Leeds, UK, that had been the group's protégé. Members Rico: producer and selector Stef: manager and organizer Operator G: sound system operator Shanti D Sr. Wilson, etc.: voices In addition to the O.B.F. project, Rico Sr. Wilson, Charlie P and Shanti D teamed up to create another musical project, The A1 Crew.

79353788	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H%C3%B4tel%20de%20Ville%2C%20Mamoudzou	Hôtel de Ville, Mamoudzou	The (, City Hall) is a municipal building in Mamoudzou, Mayotte, in the Indian Ocean, standing on Boulevard Halidi Sélémani. History Following the decision of Mayotte to remain with France, notwithstanding the unilateral declaration of independence of the Comoros islands in 1975, Mamoudzou was redeveloped and expanded in response to significant population growth. In this context, the town council decided to commission a new town hall, to bring all services together in one building, on the site of an earlier town hall. Construction of the new building started in 2006. It was designed in the modern style, built in concrete and steel and was officially opened by the Prime Minister of France, François Fillon, on 13 July 2009. Celebrations to mark the event included a ball, held that evening, with the Malagasy artist, Fandrama, leading the entertainment. The design of the new building involved an asymmetrical main frontage facing onto Boulevard Halidi Sélémani. The layout involved two separate sections: a curved section with a long concrete wall to the southeast and a taller rectangular block with a curved roof to the northwest. The main entrance was in the curved section, at the northeast point of the wall, and was accessed by a short flight of steps leading up to a glass doorway within a two-storey recess formed by three pairs of columns supporting a parapet. Internally, the principal room was the Salle du Conseil (council chamber). In May 2023, the council announced that some services, including planning, housing and the environment, would relocate from the town hall into new premises on Rue Said Soimihi, and in August 2023, Mamoudzou succeeded the much smaller town of Dzaoudzi as the capital of Mayotte, with the town hall becoming the local seat of government of the capital. The Minister of the Overseas of France, Marie Guévenoux, met with the mayor, Ambdilwahedou Soumaila, at the town hall and was briefed on new systems for registering births and deaths, during a tour of Mayotte in May 2024. Cyclone Chido caused some damage to the town hall when it reached Mayotte in December 2024.

Taxonomy Heterodermia rubrotricha was formally described by Gothamie Weerakoon and André Aptroot in their 2013 study of lichen biodiversity in Sri Lanka. The species is closely related to Heterodermia boryi, sharing a similar configuration, but differs distinctly by having red pigmentation on its marginal . Another related species, Heterodermia vulgaris, also exhibits red pigmentation, but in that species, the pigment occurs over the entire lower surface rather than just the cilia. The species epithet rubrotricha is derived from Latin, referring to the red coloration of its cilia. Description The thallus of Heterodermia rubrotricha is foliose and can form tufts up to 10 cm in diameter. It features whitish lobes that grow linearly, ascending or becoming , reaching lengths up to 4 cm and widths of 0.9–1.6 mm. The lobes taper at the tips, where they are narrower (approximately 0.4 mm wide) and recurved. Branching is , occurring every 0.5–2.0 cm. The upper surface of the lobes is smooth, shiny, and ranges from flat to convex, while the lower surface lacks both a and rhizines, being instead (cobweb-like) and whitish with corticate margins. A distinguishing characteristic of this species is the presence of prominent, black marginal , which are or branched, dull, 0.1–0.2 mm thick, and can grow up to 8 mm long. These cilia are mostly covered with a containing dark red pigment, excluding the very tips and bases. The species does not produce rhizines, soredia, isidia, or pseudocyphellae. Apothecia (fruiting bodies) are common, measuring 4–7 mm in diameter and occurring (on the surface of the lobes). Their margins feature 6–15 tapering lobes similar in form to the primary lobes. The apothecial are brownish-grey, typically heavily covered with white pruina. The hymenium (fertile tissue) is 100–180 μm tall, while the (supporting tissue below the hymenium) is pale brown and about 30 μm thick. are brown, contain one septum, have few , and measure 35–43 by 19–22 μm. Chemically, the cortex of H. rubrotricha reacts yellow with potassium hydroxide (K+), the medulla faintly yellow, and the red pigment on the cilia produces a purple reaction. Thin-layer chromatography has identified atranorin (in the cortex), zeorin (in the medulla), and a red anthraquinone pigment on the cilia. Habitat and distribution Heterodermia rubrotricha has been found exclusively in Sri Lanka, specifically in the Central Province near Nuwara Eliya, growing on the smooth bark of tea plants (Camellia sinensis). It was first collected from a tea plantation at an elevation of about . The genus Heterodermia is generally species-rich in tropical mountainous regions, and Sri Lanka is known for its diverse assemblage of foliose lichens, with Heterodermia potentially being the most species-rich foliose genus in the region. At the time of its original publication, H. rubrotricha was known only from its type locality.

Critical reception Writing in Australian Book Review critic David Wright described the book as "a chocolate box of parodic Aussie portraits: some are bitter, some have gooey sentimental hearts, and some are just plain nuts." He went on to note that the book "brims with crackerjack wit" and that it "is interconnected in a way that tests believability, but so too are the real events into which its web entwines." While reviewing each of the books on the short list for the 2017 Miles Franklin Award writer Jen Webb pondered how close the author sails "to the wind of defamation", before commenting: "Like a supremely confident stand-up comic, he pushes the joke from initial humour through infuriating repetition to helpless laughter...Literary giant after literary giant, publisher after publisher, is kneecapped by these excoriating and hilarious accounts of the players, their work, and the impossibly interwoven lives they lead."

79353885	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malmidea%20sanguineostigma	Malmidea sanguineostigma	Malmidea sanguineostigma is a species of crustose lichen in the family Malmideaceae. It is found in the Central Province of Sri Lanka. Taxonomy Malmidea sanguineostigma was first described in 2013 by the lichenologists Gothamie Weerakoon and André Aptroot as part of their broader study on Sri Lankan lichens. This species closely resembles Malmidea chrysostigma, sharing the same habitat, but it differs in the presence of red anthraquinone pigment in the thallus medulla and the yellow pigment xantholepinone in the medulla of the apothecial . Additionally, M. sanguineostigma produces smaller . The species epithet sanguineostigma alludes to the distinctive blood-red dots observed on its thallus. Description The thallus of Malmidea sanguineostigma is thin, dull, and grey, featuring numerous hemispherical, corticate warts measuring 0.1–0.2 mm in diameter, each containing a bright red medullary pigment. These warts are typically rounded but occasionally flattened at the apex, without forming soralia. The partner consists of green algae cells about 7 by 5 μm. Apothecia (fruiting bodies) are , ranging from 0.4 to 0.8 mm in diameter, with a flat, smooth, medium-brown . The margins of the apothecia are slightly raised, dull, ochraceous to chamois-colored, and occasionally reveal pale yellow medullary tissue. Internally, the hymenium is hyaline (clear), measuring 45–55 μm high, with a pale brownish layer (4–6 μm thick). The below is hyaline to yellowish-brown, around 35–45 μm thick. Paraphyses (supporting hyphae in the hymenium) are unbranched and slender, about 1 μm wide. The asci (spore-bearing structures) are cylindrical and contain eight hyaline, simple (non-septate) ascospores per ascus. Spores are ellipsoid with slightly pointed ends, measuring 10.5–12.5 by 5.5–6.5 μm. Pycnidia (asexual reproductive structures) have not been observed. Chemical analysis of M. sanguineostigma revealed a UV-negative thallus with no reactions to standard chemical spot tests (C–, K–, KC–, P–), but its medulla shows a distinctive K+ blood-red reaction and fluoresces orange under UV. Thin-layer chromatography identified the presence of norsolorinic acid in the thallus medulla and xantholepinone pigment in the medulla of the excipulum. Habitat and distribution At the time of its original publication, Malmidea sanguineostigma was known to occur only at its type locality in Sri Lanka. It was collected at an elevation of in the Knuckles Conservation Area, near Riverston Tower in the Central Province.

It is part of the pool of enterprises called Sistema Jangadeiro de Comunicação and operates in the all news format, having been affiliated to BandNews FM since its foundation in 2013. History At the end of 2012, it was reported after confirmation from Grupo Bandeirantes de Comunicação that Fortaleza would have a station from the BandNews FM all news network. The new station would occupy the 101.7 MHz frequency, which had been broadcast by Beach Park FM since 2011 and was negotiated between the latter and Sistema Jangadeiro de Comunicação. The preparations for the inauguration were reported on national television by BandNews FM journalist Eduardo Barão directly from the capital of Ceará. Tribuna BandNews FM went on the air at 7:30 a.m. on March 11, 2013, and Beach Park FM briefly went online. The launch of the station was attended by Barão, Ricardo Boechat, also a journalist with the network, and executives from the Grupo Bandeirantes. The name was a reference to the Tribuna do Ceará portal, launched at the same time, which for years had been the title of a newspaper in Fortaleza and had the rights acquired by Tasso Jereissati, owner of the Sistema Jangadeiro. The station was the first affiliate of BandNews FM, which until then only had its own stations, launched as a result of a previous change of affiliation of TV Jangadeiro, which became a Band affiliate in 2012. In its early days, based on the time slots allocated by BandNews FM to local programming, Tribuna BandNews FM's daily schedule consisted of Edição Manhã, Primeira Edição and Edição Noite. On January 5, 2014, the station started to have a sports team to broadcast matches of Ceará soccer teams, with Quixadá and Fortaleza, valid for the Campeonato Cearense, as the first broadcast of the new team. In 2018, the station and TV Jangadeiro launched the sports program Futebolês, a multimedia project created after the acquisition of the rights to broadcast the Copa do Nordeste. In 2019, Rede Jangadeiro FM stations in the interior of Ceará stopped broadcasting part of Tribuna BandNews FM's programming due to a crisis faced by the Sistema Jangadeiro. On August 10, 2020, during the reformulation of the Sistema Jangadeiro vehicles, the station changed its name to Jangadeiro BandNews FM. The names of its news programs, broadcast in the morning in two editions from Monday to Friday and one on Saturday, were also changed to Jornal Jangadeiro.

79353960	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land%20Utilization%20Program	Land Utilization Program	Land Utilization Program (LUP) was founded in 1934 and was one of many Alphabet agencies, also called New Deal agencies. Land Utilization Program was an U.S. federal government agency created by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Land Utilization Program was created to combat the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression in the United States. Land Utilization Program was ended in 1964. History Some of the cause of the dust bowl was caused by concentrated agriculture, some called sodbusters, farmers that plowed up native grasses grow wheat and other crops. The some of the grassland were used livestock before the sodbusters. Most sodbusters activity was between 1905 and 1915. By the 1920s rainfall had dropped off and crops failed. The grassland soil with no grass roots turned to dust and formed the black blizzards of the Great Plains for about 10 years. In 1929, Agricultural Marketing Act of 1929 had the Federal Farm Board study the problem and make a report. In 1931, President Herbert Hoover's United States Secretary of Agriculture , Arthur M. Hyde, formed a National Conference on Land Utilization in 1931 held in Chicago, to study the Dust Bowl problems and to make recommendations. In 1933, Hoover asked Congress to act on Hyde's Conference recommendations. A National Planning Board was founded in the Public Works Administration on in July 1933. This Board became the National Resources Board by an executive orders of Franklin D. Roosevelt on June 30, 1934. In 1933, a Special Board of Public Works made of members from several Federal departments recommend a program for purchasing poor soil farmland. In February 1934, Agricultural Adjustment Administration started the program. In 1934, one of the recommendations was acted on, for the Federal Government to purchase and develop 75 million acres of land not good for farming. Starting in 1934, the U.S. federal government acquired 11 million acres of Great Plains land from voluntary private owners for $47.5 million. The land was turned into federally managed large grass grazing land. The Land Utilization Program managed these new grasslands. The Land Utilization Program seeded and managed the grassland for 10 years. Some of the land was used for pasture, forest, livestock range, parks, recreation land, and wildlife refuge. In total there were about 250 land utilization projects in 45 States. Some of the land was purchase with the Bankhead–Jones Farm Tenant Act of 1937, National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933 and Emergency Relief Appropriation Act of 1935. Resettlement Administration was established by Executive Order, April 1935. The land utilization program was transferred to the Resettlement Administration, with an initial allotment of $48 million for land purchase and $18 million to employ labor for development, April 1935. In September 1937, the Land utilization program was move to be under the Bureau of Agricultural Economics. In October 1938, the Land Utilization Program was put under the Soil Conservation Service. In January 1954, Land Utilization Program was put under United States Forest Service. In December 1964, the Land Utilization Program was ended.

79354123	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount%20Scott%20%28New%20Zealand%29	Mount Scott (New Zealand)	Mount Scott is a mountain in the Canterbury Region of New Zealand. Description Mount Scott is located northwest of Christchurch in Arthur's Pass National Park. It is set in the Polar Range of the Southern Alps in the South Island. Precipitation runoff from the mountain's west slope drains into the Edwards River, whereas the east slope drains to the Hawdon River via Sudden Valley Stream. Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises above the Edwards Valley in 1.5 kilometres. The nearest higher peak is Mount Wilson, 0.6 kilometre to the southwest. The mountain's toponym was applied by Canterbury Mountaineering Club members to honour Robert Falcon Scott (1868–1912), a British Royal Navy officer and explorer who led two expeditions to the Antarctic regions: the Discovery Expedition of 1901–04 and the ill-fated Terra Nova Expedition of 1910–13. Climbing The first ascent of the summit was made in December 1930 by J. Gill, J. Wilson, and E. Brough via Upper Edwards Valley. Climbing routes: Via Upper Edwards Valley Via Amber Col Via Hawdon Hut Via Mount Wilson Via Sudden Valley Stream Climate Based on the Köppen climate classification, Mount Scott is located in a marine west coast (Cfb) climate zone, with a subpolar oceanic climate (Cfc) at the summit. Prevailing westerly winds blow moist air from the Tasman Sea onto the mountains, where the air is forced upwards by the mountains (orographic lift), causing moisture to drop in the form of rain or snow. The months of December through February offer the most favourable weather for viewing or climbing this peak.

While idly wandering the , he comes across by a seemingly abandoned villa with a grand swimming pool. He dives in, only to narrowly survive the encounter with a great white shark. Once the fear has passed, Walter comes back to the villa the following days to watch the shark. There he meets an older boy, Carlo, who explains to him he's the caretaker of the villa and the place belongs to a gangster known as Corsaro (), who uses it as a hideout. Corsaro keeps the shark there as a symbol of his power since it devoured an opponent of his years ago.

To do so, Walter begins to steal money at home and sells his father's possessions, much to his mother Rita's chagrin. Over the course of that summer, Carlo and Walter become friends. When Walter runs out of money, Carlo suggests robbing a butcher's shop: however, the plan backfires and Walter saves Carlo by threatening the butcher at gunpoint, then making him feed two carcasses to the shark.

After Rita finds out, Walter runs away from home, settling in the villa. Carlo and Walter figure out the shark is suffering from captivity. While daydreaming about setting it free, they forget that to collect some money for Tecno, which ends up stolen. Although Walter takes the blame, Tecno beats Carlo to a pulp and kicks them both out of the gang: Carlo gets angry at Walter and leaves. The next day, Carlo takes the gang to the villa to see the shark, hoping to be reinstated. When the boys start mistreating the shark, Walter tries to stop them, but he gets beaten by Tecno. Just when he's about to die, Corsaro arrives, knocks Tecno down and throws everyone out of his villa. The gangster commends Walter for his bravery.

As of 2025, the initiative is authorized and funded through 2027. What is now Brand USA was authorized in 2010 by Congress through the Travel Promotion Act. It was launched at World Travel Market and began operations in 2011 after the country received less than what was perceived as its fare share of international tourism. The program was initially authorized for five years and while it has generally operated with the support of both Republicans and Democrats, in 2017, the organization was threatened by the Trump administration's initial plans for fiscal 2018, but continued to exist. While much of Brand USA's funding comes from fees tied to international visa payments to which it has to provide matching funding, in 2022, the Biden administration signed Restoring Brand USA Act which authorized $250million to continue the country's recovery from the downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Brand USA's initiatives include Brand USA Travel Week, which launched in 2019.

Incumbent Progressive Coalition Mayor Peter Clavelle defeated Republican nominee Kurt Wright. Background Peter Clavelle lost reelection as mayor in 1993 to Republican nominee Peter Brownell, but returned to the office after he defeated Brownell in the 1995 election. The Progressives retained control over the city council during Clavelle's tenure. On November 4, 1998, new campaign finance legislation went into effect. Candidates were now required to record the name, address, and town of residence for a contributor giving more than $100. The total number of contributions less than $100 was also required to be listed. The maximum donation allowed was lowered from $1,000 to $200, with the exception of family members. Nominations Progressive Clavelle announced that he would run for a fifth term on November 24, 1998. His campaign was managed by Peter Baker. Republican On December 14, 1998, Kurt Wright, a member of the city council, announced that he would run for mayor. John Barrows, a Democrat, managed Wright's campaign. Other Eric Brenner and John Pius Hogan ran as independent candidates. The signature requirement to run was raised from 30 to 150. Louie Beaudin and Michael Brown failed to turn in the required amount with Beaudin 75 short and Brown 34 short. Beaudin and Brown ran as write-in candidates instead. Campaign Wright called for Clavelle to not collect absentee ballots and limit his campaign spending to $15,000. Wright had proposed legislation in 1996 to prohibit candidates and campaign workers from collecting and turning in absentee ballots, but the city council voted 9 to 3 against it. Clavelle rejected both of these demands and stated that he would spend $25,000. Clavelle raised $38,835 compared to Wright's $19,159 and Brenner's $32; Clavelle spent all but $1,000 of what he raised while Brenner spent $1,070. The Republicans paid $1,200 in rent for their office space while the rent for Clavelle's headquarters was $400. Fred Osier, chair of the Republican Party in Burlington, accused Clavelle of benefitting from a special deal. Clavelle's campaign stated that it agreed to pay $800 for seven weeks of rent and had only paid $400 of it so far. Secretary of State Deborah Markowitz stated that the current campaign finance laws did not address rent payments. Clavelle and Wright participated in a forum hosted by the Burlington Business Association on February 4. Brenner attended the forum as an audience member and criticize it for not including him and Hogan. Another forum with four candidates in attendance was held by the Neighborhood Planning Assemblies of wards 4 and 7 on February 17, while Beaudin and Brown were in the audience. A forum attended by Clavelle and Wright was hosted by City Women on February 24. Results Endorsements References Works cited Newspapers Report 1999 United States mayoral elections 1999

Early life Abel Albert was born in the 6th arrondissement of Paris on 31 January 1873. Sporting career Albert began his sporting career at Cosmopolitan Club, where he played as a halfback. Together with Frantz Reichel, André Roosevelt, and Jean-Guy Gautier, he was a member of the French team that competed in the rugby event at the 1900 Summer Olympics in Paris. Albert and Cosmopolitan teammate André Rischmann were the only players of the French team who were not members of either Racing Club de France and Stade Français. On 14 October, he was among the 17 who aligned against Frankfurt (representing Germany), starting as a midfielder alongside Léon Binoche, and even though they were not used to play together, which was an enormous advantage for the Frankfurt midfielders, they were able to help their side to a 27–17 victory. For the decisive match against Moseley Wanderers (representing Great Britain) on 28 October, Henriquez de Zubiera and Albert were replaced by Giroux (SF) and Gondouin (RCF), as France won gold medal with a 27–8 victory.

79354521	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asaf%20Pinkhasov	Asaf Pinkhasov	Asaf Yutamovich Pinkhasov ( ; 1884–1920) was a Mountain Jewish educator, scholar, and translator. He was one of the founders of the Judeo-Tat script, the creator of the first Mountain Jewish alphabet, and the founder of the Mountain Jewish literary language. In the Judeo-Tat language, he published his translations of the Siddur (Vilnius, 1909; with parallel text in Hebrew) and Joseph Sapir's brochure, The Goals of the Zionists (Vilnius, 1908). In 1917, he created the Jewish National Committee. He was shot by the Bolsheviks in 1920. Biography Asaf Pinkhasov was born in 1884 in Derbent to a rabbi’s family. He studied with the Chief Rabbi of Dagestan, Yaakov Yitzhaki, who was famous throughout the Caucasus. He was literate in Russian and spoke Hebrew. On the recommendation of his teacher, he was invited to the family of a Grozny millionaire from the Mountain Jews, Matvey (Matitiyahu) Bogatyrev, as a home tutor. In 1908, he graduated from the Jewish Theological Seminary (Yeshiva) in Vilnius. A year later, he left for Samarkand, where he opened a Russian-Jewish school for children of Caucasian Jews and taught there for about two years. Returning to Derbent, Pinkhasov submitted a petition to the military governor of the Dagestan region in early January 1911 for permission to open a Russian-Jewish printing house in his hometown. However, the printing house was not opened. In the same year, he applied as a candidate for the post of Public (Chief) Rabbi of Derbent but did not receive the required number of votes, as he was considered too young for such a post at only 27 years old. That same year, he married Susanna Ilyaguevna Pinkhasova and continued his teaching and social activities. He had two books prepared for publication, translated from Hebrew, with the text written using the alphabet he developed. Pinkhasov's first publications not only laid the foundations of the Judeo-Tat written language but also did interesting linguistic work, taking the Derbent dialect as the basis for the Judeo-Tat literary language, including some lexemes from the Quba (Guba) and Kaitag dialects, while expanding the surviving ancient Hebrew layer of his language. Pinkhasov predetermined the further development of the Judeo-Tat literary language. By 1917, he became the leader of the Mountain Jews of Derbent. He translated the Siddur () and from Hebrew into the language of the Mountain Jews. At the same time, he taught at the first Russian-Jewish school in Dagestan. In the spring of 1917, the Turkic, Armenian, Jewish, and Russian national committees began to function in Derbent. A small armed detachment was soon created under each national committee. Asaf Pinkhasov was elected Chairman of the Jewish National Committee, and the previously created Zionist group joined this committee. During the existence of the Mountainous Republic of the Northern Caucasus, Mountain Jews were elected to the Derbent City Duma, including A. Pinkhasov, Khanukaev, B. Musakhalov, and Ya. Dadashev. Asaf Pinkhasov participated in the liberation of 28 Jewish youths captured by Denikin’s forces, who were threatened with execution. After the end of the Russian Civil War and the restoration of Soviet power, all the national committees of Derbent were declared illegal, and their leaders were arrested and convicted of aiding counterrevolutionaries. Soon after the establishment of Soviet power in Derbent in late April to early May 1918, the Council of People’s Commissars of the city decided on May 11, 1918: “In view of the appropriation of the functions of Soviet power by the National Committees, immediately take measures to abolish them.” (News of the Revolutionary Defense of the City of Derbent, 1918, May 19 (May 3), No. 19, p. 4). All the chairmen of the committees were sentenced to death. All those sentenced filed an appeal to the Military Tribunal of the Dagestan Region to review this sentence. However, before receiving a response from the center, the sentence was carried out only with respect to Asaf Pinkhasov. In March 1920, at the age of 36, Asaf Pinkhasov was shot by the Chekists. Family Spouse — Susanna Ilyaguevna Pinkhasova (née Khanukaeva), born in 1899. She graduated from a pedagogical college and worked as a teacher. After her husband was shot, she took her three children and left the Dagestan ASSR. She died in 1957. Son — Emmanuil Asafyevich Pinkhasov (1912–1993) was engineer, participant in the Great Patriotic War, died in Chelyabinsk.

79354539	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter%20Tyerman	Peter Tyerman	Peter David Tyerman (October 1, 1867 - May 16, 1958) was a Canadian physician and politician. He represented Prince Albert in the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan from 1905 to 1906, although virtually the entirety of his brief term in office was tied up in legal wrangling over irregularities that had left the result in dispute. Tyerman himself, however, was never implicated in any wrongdoing, which related entirely to allegations of improper conduct by provincial election officials. Background Born in Bowmanville, Ontario, he studied medicine at the University of Toronto before moving to Prince Albert in 1898. During World War I, he served as a medical officer in the Canadian Armed Forces. After retiring as a doctor, he took up farming and served on Prince Albert's public school board. Political career His election to the legislature in the 1905 Saskatchewan general election was not confirmed until a week after election day. He was reported as the initial winner, although conflicting results left it unclear for a number of days as both Tyerman and challenger Samuel James Donaldson were reported to have narrow leads of less than ten votes at different times, until three ballot boxes arrived from the remote far northern communities of Pine Point, Bear Lake and Sandy Lake, finally giving Tyerman a secure lead. The final result, 411 votes for Tyerman to 316 for Donaldson, was declared on January 9, 1906. By January 22, however, the deputy returning officers from the northern communities had been charged and fined with election irregularities, with the court finding that they had not conducted the election on the correct date, overturning Tyerman's entire majority. Tyerman offered his resignation from the legislature within days, although this was deferred by the government pending the results of a judicial recount. Although the officers asserted that the delay was caused solely by the difficulty of travel to the remote communities, Donaldson's Provincial Rights Party alleged that the returning officers had not actually set up any proper voting procedures at all, but in fact had merely stuffed the ballot boxes with votes for Tyerman themselves. The recount in February upheld the original result, with the judge declining to exclude the disputed ballots from the count on the grounds that he did not have legal jurisdiction to assess their validity. As soon as the recount concluded, Tyerman resubmitted his deferred resignation, and never actually sat in a session of the legislature. As a result of his resignation, however, the government then came under fire around the question of whether it was proper for Tyerman to have resigned, thus forcing a full by-election, as opposed to the legislature simply awarding the seat directly to Donaldson. On April 2, 1907, over a year after Tyerman's resignation, the seat was awarded to Donaldson by the legislature's standing committee on elections.

79354580	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil%20Erosion%20Service	Soil Erosion Service	Soil Erosion Service (SES) was founded in 1933 and was one of many Alphabet agencies, also called New Deal agencies. Soil Erosion Service was an U.S. federal government agency created by President Franklin D. Roosevelt with the Soil Conservation Act signed on April 27, 1935. Soil Erosion Service was created to combat the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression in the United States. The problem of soil erosion was major during the 1930s. The Soil Erosion Service was later moved into the Soil Conservation Service (SCS), and then the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). History The National Industrial Recovery Act of 1933 included funds to fight soil erosion. Some of the cause of the dust bowl was caused by concentrated agriculture, some called sodbusters, farmers that plowed up native grasses grow wheat and other crops. The some of the grassland were used livestock before the sodbusters. Most sodbusters activity was between 1905 and 1915. By the 1920s rainfall had dropped off and crops failed. The grassland soil with no grass roots turned to dust and formed the black blizzards of the Great Plains for about 10 years. Soil Erosion Service started as service in the United States Department of the Interior in 1933. Hugh Hammond Bennett served as the first chief of the Soil Erosion Service till 1951. The Soil Erosion Service was transferred to the Department of Agriculture in 1935. Soil Erosion Service activities, included education on conservation practices to landowners on land with severe erosion. Soil Erosion Service did demonstration projects for landowners. Some of the labor for the Soil Erosion Service demonstrations and projects was provided by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC), the Civil Works Administration (CWA), and the Works Progress Administration (WPA). After the Flood Control Act of 1936, Soil Erosion Service worked on watershed management projects also. Soil Erosion Service worked with tree nurseries to supply the needed trees and seeds for projects. The Soil Erosion Service did soil control project and conservation project to combat erosion on government lands. The Soil Erosion Service start aerial photography programs to help in conservation and agricultural projects. Soil Erosion Service also worked with the Agricultural Conservation Program. In 1952, US Soil Survey merged with Soil Erosion Service. Gallery See also Great Plains Shelterbelt National Cooperative Soil Survey Great Plains Conservation Program Howard Finnell A.

79354621	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci%20anyons	Fibonacci anyons	In condensed matter physics, a Fibonacci anyon is a type of anyon which lives in two-dimensional topologically ordered systems. The Fibonacci anyon is distinguished uniquely by the fact that it satisfies the fusion rule . Alternatively, the Fibonacci anyon can be defined by fact that it is algebraically described by the unique non-trivial simple object in the Fibonacci category. Experimentally, it has been proposed that Fibonacci anyons could be hosted in the fractional quantum Hall system. In particular, it is possible that Fibonacci anyons are present in the system with filling factor . Fibonacci anyons have primary been developed in the context of topological quantum computing. This is because these anyons allow for universal quantum computing based entirely on braiding and performing topological charge measurements, and hence form a natural setting for topological quantum computing. This is in contrast to anyons based on discrete gauge theory, which require a more subtle use of ancillas to perform universal quantum computation. Method for universal quantum computing The pipeline for universal quantum computing with Fibonacci anyons can be described as follows. First, one is given an instance of a decision problem which is in the complexity class BQP (for instance, a large integer whose factorization one wishes to determine). Since the problem of additively approximating the Jones polynomial at a third root of unity is BQP complete, this means by definition that there is a polynomial time classical algorithm for taking any efficient quantum circuit an assigning to it a framed link such that the Jones invariant (or really, Kauffman bracket) of that link evaluated at encodes the solution of the decision problem. For example, using this procedure, Shor's algorithm for factoring an integer would correspond to some large link. To compute the Kauffman bracket of this link evaluated at , one would take some material which hosts Fibonacci anyons, and perform a series of creation, braiding, and fusion operators such that the spacetime trajectories of the Fibonacci anyons in this process form the link outputted in the previous step of the process. One would then repeat this experiment polynomially many times, and record the probability that all of the fusion measurements resulted in the vacuum sector. The algebraic properties of the Fibonacci category imply that, after multiplying by a suitable power of the golden ratio, this computed probability is approximately equal to the Kauffman bracket evaluated at . By construction, there is then a polynomial time classical algorithm for taking this approximation for the Kauffman bracket and using it to deduce the result of the original decision problem with high probability (for instance, in the case of factoring, this algorithm would use the digits of the approximation of the Kauffman bracket to recover the factorization of the input integer). This pipeline is demonstrated below References Condensed matter physics Quantum computing

He established the Royapettah College in Madras. Jenkins was born in Exeter, the second son of cabinet maker John and his Welsh wife Mary Evans. The parents were Methodists and he went to Exeter grammar school before becoming a teacher at William Pengelly's school. He then joined the Methodist ministry and was ordained at the Greet Queen Street Wesleyan Chapel on 31 October 1845 and was sent to Madras. He worked at Mannargudi and Nagapatnam before moving to Madras in 1848. He founded the Royapettah school. During the mutiny years he was away in England due to poor health and returned in 1857 to Madras. He became famous as a speaker and preacher and made numerous tours, speaking at the Evangelical Alliance convention in New York 1873 and visited China and Japan. He returned to England and lived in Southport where he died. He was buried in Norwood cemetery. Jenkins married Eliza Drewett at Madras in 1850 and after her death in 1869 he married Margaret Heald in 1871. Margaret died shortly after their son James Heald Jenkins was born. James Heald wrote a memoir on the life of his father. He became a preacher and his son Romilly James Heald Jenkins (1907–1969) became a professor of Byzantine history.

Traditions In Holy Roman Empire there was a beater duty during lordly hunts, and there was a special tax for the Jews, called :de:Federlappengeld, paid to exempt them from the duty. The expression "wikt:beat about the bush" or "beat around the bush" comes from the method of fowling when beaters beat about the bush where the flock is roosting. Beaters can wave flags on the ends of the drive line, to make the fowl stay within the shooting range. References External links What is a Driven Hunt?

79354688	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lindsay%20Shepherd%20Olive	Lindsay Shepherd Olive	Lindsay Shepherd Olive (April 30, 1917 – October 19, 1988) was an American mycologist known for his broad contributions to fungal taxonomy, cytogenetics, genetics, and slime mold biology. Born in South Carolina, Olive was educated at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he earned his Ph.D. in 1942. Throughout his academic career, he held positions at several institutions, notably Louisiana State University, Columbia University, and again at Chapel Hill. Olive's research included pioneering genetic studies with the fungus Sordaria fimicola and extensive work on cellular slime molds, culminating in his monograph, The Mycetozoans (1975). Recognized for his scientific achievements, Olive served as president of the Mycological Society of America and was elected a fellow of the National Academy of Sciences. Early life and education Lindsay Shepherd Olive was born on April 30, 1917, in Florence, South Carolina, into a family with roots in southern plantation society. His family relocated to Apex, North Carolina, near Raleigh, where Olive grew up. Initially encouraged by his mother to pursue chemistry, he enrolled at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1934. After becoming captivated by the teaching of Professor John Couch in a mycology course, Olive changed his major to botany. Olive earned his B.A. in 1938, followed by an M.A. in 1940 and a Ph.D. in 1942, all from Chapel Hill. His early research under professors William Chambers Coker and Couch focused primarily on rust fungi and jelly fungi, laying the foundation for his extensive career in mycological research. Academic and research career Following his Ph.D., Olive began teaching at Chapel Hill as an instructor in botany during the challenging years of World War II. In 1944, he took a position with the United States Department of Agriculture in Beltsville, Maryland, working as a mycologist and plant pathologist to address wartime agricultural threats. Although he did not remain long in plant pathology, this period contributed to his early publications. In 1946, Olive accepted a position as associate professor at Louisiana State University, focusing on jelly fungi and other fungal research. Three years later, he moved to Columbia University, New York, where he significantly expanded his research scope. Olive's research at Columbia included influential work on [fungal genetics using the organism Sordaria fimicola, establishing methodologies that became standard in genetic studies. His contributions during his time at Columbia were recognized when he served as President of the Mycological Society of America. In 1956, Olive received a Guggenheim Fellowship for his research on jelly fungi in the Society Islands, despite receiving public criticism for the project's perceived frivolity. The fellowship, however, proved productive and substantially influenced his views on fungal taxonomy and evolution. From the late 1950s onward, Olive collaborated extensively with Carmen Stoianovitch on cellular slime molds, culminating in his authoritative 1975 book, "The Mycetozoans". Later life and legacy In 1968, Olive returned to the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill as a distinguished professor, drawn by both professional opportunities and personal affinity for the southern Appalachian region. He contributed to the development and maintenance of the Highlands Biological Station's botanical garden. Olive formally retired in 1982 but continued research and mentorship for another year without salary. Throughout his career, Olive traveled extensively, conducting research around the globe, discovering numerous new taxa primarily on islands. His legacy includes contributions to various fields within mycology, spanning taxonomy, cytogenetics, fungal genetics, and slime mold biology. Olive received numerous honors, including election as a distinguished mycologist by the Mycological Society of America and fellowship in the National Academy of Sciences. Throughout his career, Olive extensively traveled globally, discovering numerous fungal species, particularly on islands in Polynesia and the Pacific region. His international reputation as a "naturalist of the old school" was celebrated by colleagues, who likened his pioneering discoveries to those of renowned mycologist Roland Thaxter. Olive's health declined in the mid-1980s due to Alzheimer's disease, leading him to close his laboratory and cease international travel. He died on October 19, 1988, in Highlands, North Carolina. Selected works Olive authored around 160 scientific publications across multiple fields within mycology, including fungal taxonomy, genetics, cytogenetics, and slime mold biology.

Early life and education Albert Albertsen was born on 20 May 1848 as the son of Peter Albertsen, a shipmaster, and Anne Sophie Lauritzen. After working in the County Hall of Ærø and Svendborg, he studied law, and upon his graduation in 1872, he became a barrister. Professional career In that same year, Albertsen became a clerk at the Vallø stift foundation, where he worked for three years, until 1875, when he became an assistant in the General Fire Insurance of the Towns, where he advanced to clerk in 1878, to deputy director in 1886, and finally to director in 1906, a position that he held until his death. Albertsen became chancellor in 1892, real justice in 1906, and a Knight of the Order of the Dannebrog on 11 January 1911. In 1906, he replaced State Councilor Julius Goldschmidt as the new auditor at Vallø Diocese, a position that he held for seven years, until 1913, when he was replaced by former mayor and city clerk Kai August Hammerich. Sporting career A long-time member of Kjøbenhavns Boldklub (KB), Albertsen was elected as the fourth president of the Danish Football Association (DBU) in 1897, thus replacing Johannes Forchhammer. He held that position for 14 years, until 1911, when he was replaced by Ludvig Sylow. Later life On 26 October 1877, Albertsen married in the Church of Our Lady in Svendborg to Anna Elisabeth Christine Gregoria Henriette Kugler (1852–1925), the daughter of organist Frederik Vilhelm Kugler. He died in Frederiksberg on 9 January 1913, at the age of 64.

79354742	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic%20theory%20of%20topological%20quantum%20information	Algebraic theory of topological quantum information	The algebraic theory of topological quantum information is a collection of algebraic techniques developed and applied to topological aspects of condensed matter physics and quantum information. Often, this revolves around using categorical structures or cohomology theories to classify and describe various topological phases of matter, such as topological order and symmetry-protected topological order. Broadly speaking, the application of categorical models to topological systems comes from the fact that the objects the categories describe some sort of quasiparticles, and the structures on the category encode the ways in which these quasiparticles can interact with one another. The algebraic theory of (2+1)D bosonic topological order The algebraic theory of (2+1)-dimensional bosonic topological order was introduced in 2006 by Alexei Kitaev. Every (2+1)-dimensional topologically ordered system is expected to host some sort of theory of anyons, describing the elementary point-like excitations in the system. The basic pieces of data describing the interactions between these anyons (such as fusion and braiding statistics) naturally fit together into the structure of a unitary modular tensor category. This data is called the anyon content of the topological phase. Anyon content is an incomplete characterization of topological order due to the existence of invertible topological phases, which are non-trivial yet host no anyons. Invertible phases are characterized not by their anyon data, but by a real number called their chiral central charge. It is widely believed that topological phases are uniquely determined by their anyon content and their chiral central charge. The relationship between (2+1)-dimensional bosonic topological order and modular tensor categories can also be understood by passing through topological quantum field theory. It is widely believed that every topologically ordered system should have an effective field theory description which is a topological quantum field theory. In this way, we expect on physical grounds a correspondence between topological orders and topological quantum field theories. Seeing as (2+1)-dimensional topological quantum field theories are connected to modular tensor categories via the Reshetikhin–Turaev construction, this gives an indirect connection between (2+1)-dimensional bosonic topological order and topological quantum field theory. Dictionary between categorical structures and anyon operations There is a general dictionary between the categorical structures of a unitary modular tensor category and the physical operations one can perform with anyons in two-dimensional bosonic topologically ordered systems. This dictionary is described below in a special case for Fibonacci anyons. The evaluation maps are interpreted as operators which spontaneously create pairs of anyons. Braiding maps are interpreted as braiding operators. The coevaluation maps are more subtle, and are interpreted in terms of measurements. The cap corresponds to an operator which projects the state onto sectors for which the two relevant adjacent anyons have overall fusion channel to the vacuum (trivial particle type). Equivalently, this can be interpreted as a measurement of the overall topological charge between the two relevant adjacent anyons, with post-selection performed so that the result is the vacuum. In this way, every collection of compositions of basic morphisms can be translated into a physical process on anyons. To make this translation between category theory and anyons correct, it is important to use the right normalization. In the case of Fibonacci anyons, this normalization is given below.

79354743	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oki%20Kokubun-ji	Oki Kokubun-ji	is a Tōji Shingon-sect Buddhist temple in the Ikedafuro neighborhood of the town of Okinoshima, Shimane Prefecture Japan. It is the successor to one of provincial temples established by Emperor Shōmu during the Nara period (710 – 794). Due to this connection, the foundations of the Nara period temple which overlap the present day complex were designated as a National Historic Site in 1934, with the area under protection expanded in 2018. It is especially known for the , a rural bugaku performance with masks and costumes suggesting a Heian period origin, that is a National Intangible Folk Cultural Property) that is held every April 21. History The Shoku Nihongi records that in 741, as the country recovered from a major smallpox epidemic, Emperor Shōmu ordered that a monastery and nunnery be established in every province, the . These temples were built to a semi-standardized template, and served both to spread Buddhist orthodoxy to the provinces, and to emphasize the power of the Nara period centralized government under the Ritsuryō system. The Oki Kokubun-ji is located on the northern hills of Yabihei-ya, the largest plain on Dōgojima, the main island of the Oki Islands. The Tairajinja Kofun, the largest in the Oki Islands, is located near this temple, and the area has long been the center of the Oki region. The exact date of its founding is unknown, but it s believed to have been built around the time of the imperial edict for the construction of Kokubunji temples in 741. According to the entry for May 26, 867 in the Nihon Sandai Jitsuroku, statues of the Four Heavenly Kings were sent to the five provinces close to Silla: Hoki, Izumo, Iwami, Oki, and Nagato, and they were ordered to be set up training halls to subjugate Silla and four monks from the Kokubunji temples were assigned to perform rituals. In the case of Oki, the statues of the Four Heavenly Kings were enshrined within the grounds of Oki Kokubun-ji. Per the Engishiki, enacted in 927, tax regulations were enacted which assigned 5,000 bundles of rice as the tax for the upkeep of Oki Kokubun-ji temple. Most of the kokubunji temples throughout the country fell into decline after the Heian period, but the Oki Kokubun-ji continued. At the end of the Kamakura period, Emperor Go-Daigo, who was defeated in the Genkō War in 1332, was exiled to the Oki Islands, and (per the temple's legend), made the Oki Kokubun-ji his temporary residence. This is also stated in the Masukagami, which states that when the Emperor was exiled to Oki Island, "He was residing in a temple called Kokubun-ji, a little way in from the coast, in a place where he was kindly taken care of." Other contemporary documents indicate that Emperor Go-Daigo was issuing imperial decrees from his residence at Oki Kokubun-ji; however, the Kuroki Palace in Nishinoshima, is also known as Emperor Go-Daigo's temporary residence, so the issue is uncertain. In 1457, the shugo (military governor), Kyōgoku Mochikiyo, instructed the chief priest of Oki Kokubun-ji to exempt his vassal from paying tax on the temple's land. The main hall of the temple was rebuilt by the shugodai Oki Munekiyo in 1499, but the temple was already in decline. In the Kan'ei era (1624–1644) if the Edo period, the temple is listed as having estates of five koku for its upkeep. In the Meiji period, due to the government's anti-Buddhist movement, Oki Kokubun-ji was abandoned in 1870 after its main hall and three-story pagoda burned down in 1869. The temple was rebuilt in 1879, and its Main Hall was rebuilt in 1950; however, this structure burned down in 2007. This provided an opportunity for an archaeological excavation of the temple's grounds from 2009 until the main hall was rebuilt in 2014. The site of the Oki Kokubun-nji nunnery is located about 500 meters to the southeast, and was excavated from 1969 to 1970. It is designated as a Shimane Prefecture Historic Site. The temple grounds are estimated to be 1 chō (approximately 109 meters square), and excavations have uncovered the remains of six buildings, 12 fences, four ditch-like structures, and a pile of roof tiles. Among the remains of the buildings, a 3×7-bay building with a south-facing eaves, a 3×5-bay building with north–south eaves, and a 2×1-bay building are thought to be the main hall, lecture hall, and inner gate, respectively. However, as the main hall and lecture hall are lined up east to west, which is different from the usual layout of temple buildings, there is another theory that it was a government office complex.

79354881	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christoph%20Walter	Christoph Walter	Christoph Walter (5 November 1943 – 25 February 1995) was a German footballer. He played as a midfielder for various clubs throughout the 1960s and 1970s, notably playing for Alemannia Aachen during their brief spell at the Bundesliga during the late 1960s. Career Marl-Hüls and Frankfurt Walter began his career by playing in the youth sector pf TSV Marl-Hüls as he would play played 18 league games in the last year of the old top-flight 1962–63 Oberliga following his promotion to the senior squad in 1960 under the young coach Rudi Gutendorf, scoring three goals. With the blue and whites in the northern Ruhr area, he gained experience alongside his teammates Karl-Heinz Sell, Horst Wandolek and Heinz van Haaren. He made his first appearance on 28 October 1962 in the 2–1 away defeat against his future club Alemannia Aachen, where he made his debut as a right winger. On 17 February 1963, he scored two goals on the half-right against international goalkeeper Hans Tilkowski in a 4–0 win against Westfalia Herne. Four weeks later, the 19-year-old talent scored the winning goal in front of 13,000 spectators in the 1–0 home win against Borussia Dortmund. With the team from the Jahnstadion, Walter, who was used in the offensive in his early years, played in the inaugural first two seasons from 1963 to 1965, in the new second-tier Regionalliga West. In the debut season of the 1963–64 Regionalliga, the blue and whites made an excellent start with 15–3 points. TSV had opened the round on 4 August 1963 with a 0–0 draw against Fortuna Düsseldorf under new coach Hennes Hoffmann. In the second half of the season, the 1–0 win on 12 April 1964 at eventual champions Alemannia Aachen and the 2–1 home win a week later against Borussia Mönchengladbach with their talents Horst-Dieter Höttges, Heinz Lowin, Rudolf Pöggeler, Egon Milder, Ulrich Kohn and Günter Netzer standing out. At the end of the season, TSV Marl-Hüls finished in an excellent fourth place. In the succeeding season, this performance could not be repeated under the new coach Hans Hipp with Marl-Hüls finishing in 15th place and Walter ended his tenure at TSV after 68 Regionalliga games with nine goals as he accepted an offer from FSV Frankfurt from the Regionalliga Süd and moved to the Main metropolis for the 1965–66 Regionalliga. He moved to the Bornheimer Hang in Frankfurt with coach Hoffmann and his teammate Ewald Schöngen. He had a solid record with 30 appearances and 14 goals, but FSV could only make 14th place. The only outstanding victory in the second half of the season on 9 April 1966 was the 5–2 victory in the home game in front of 12,000 spectators against Kickers Offenbach. Coach Hoffmann later took over Alemannia Aachen in the west for the 1966–67 Regionalliga with Walter following his coach to the Black and Yellows in the cathedral city. Alemannia Aachen In addition to Walter, his former teammates of Rolf Pawellek and Peter Schöngen from his former club of TSV Marl-Hüls also had arrived at Tivoli with Austrian player Peter Reiter also being considered to play for the club. Fans of Aachen would excitedly proclaim that: Walter initially had a hard time in his efforts to be part of the starting eleven, especially since coach Hoffmann was also replaced by ex-Aachen player Michael Pfeiffer from 20 January 1967. In total, he only made 13 appearances in the Regionalliga season and scored one goal. In the last ten round games, however, he was part of the regular line-up, which was able to win the championship with a one-point lead over Schwarz-Weiß Essen. In the successful promotion round against the competition from Offenbach, 1. FC Saarbrücken, 1. SC Göttingen 05 and Tennis Borussia Berlin as he played all eight games. When the Bundesliga newcomers secured the league in 1967–68 season with eleventh place, Walter was also active in only ten games for Alemannia. At the highlight of Aachen's club history, the runner-up championship in the 1968–69 season with 31 appearances and one goal alongside Werner Scholz with 30 appearances, Erwin Hermandung with a record of 33–11, Rolf Pawellek with 32–3, Josef Thelen with 34–1, Erwin Hoffmann with 30–3, Heinz-Gerd Klostermann with 34–12, Roger Claessen with 29-9 and Josef Martinelli with 28–1. He would notably play in the 4–1 victory against defending champions 1. FC Nürnberg, scoring an own goal during the match. When Aachen was surprisingly relegated in the 1969–70 season, he made the most appearances behind Hermandung with 34-4 and Pawellek with 34–1 as he would make 33 league games and one goal. In the four following rounds in the Regionalliga West from the 1970–71 season to 1973–74 season and the inaugural season of the 1974–75 2. Bundesliga, Walter, who was now the first in defense, was a regular member of the Alemannia starting line-up, but their attempts in returning to the Bundesliga were all in vain. They would reach fourth place in the 1971–72 season under coach Günther Baumann as this would be their best attempt in making a return to the top-flight of German football. With 42–26 points, however, Aachen had no serious chance to intervene in the playoffs at the top between champion Wuppertaler SV with a record of 60–08 and runner-up Rot-Weiss Essen with a record of 54–14. The outstanding goal scorer of the team from the Bergisch region, Günter Pröpper, scored 52 goals in the season alone. In total, the combative team player played 162 competitive games for Alemannia from 1970 to 1975 under the coaches Hermann Lindemann, Volker Kottmann, Gunther Baumann, Barthel Thomas, Michael Pfeiffer and Horst Witzler and scored 13 goals. With the 38th matchday of 15 June 1975, which brought Aachen a 2–0 home defeat against Arminia Bielefeld, Walter ended his playing career at Alemannia Aachen after nine seasons. He played his last match alongside goalkeeper Gerd Prokop and the outfield players Josef Bläser, Peter Stollwerk, Christian Breuer, Rolf Pawellek, Hans Schulz, Hans Kodric, Peter Hermann, Rolf Kucharski and Antoine Fagot. Walter described his tenure with Alemannia as being particularly memorable, stating that: He ended his active playing career with FSV 09 Geilenkirchen in the 1975–76 season.

79355073	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime%20Victims%20Treatment%20Center	Crime Victims Treatment Center	The Crime Victims Treatment Center (CVTC) is the first rape crisis center founded in New York City in 1977. It is a 501(c)3 nonprofit in New York City whose mission is to help people heal from violent crime. Their focus is on sexual assault and domestic abuse survivors. History In 1977, a violent rape occurred on Columbia University campus. Witnesses called an ambulance, and the young woman was taken to the Emergency Department of St. Luke's Hospital. With no protocol on what to do with rape victims, the doctors transferred her to the Psychiatric Emergency Department. After she was discharged, she left Columbia, and was not connected to any support. After outrage from the community, an emergency department social worker, administrator, a doctor, and several members of the Upper West Side community formed a steering committee was and developed protocols and this first rape crisis center was founded. In 1986, CVTC became the first victim treatment center to offer psychiatric consultation and medication supervision in its treatment services. In 1998, CVTC started the first private hospital program in NYC to implement a sexual assault forensic examiner (SAFE) program. Programs CVTC offers crisis intervention, individual and group trauma-focused therapy, legal advocacy, complementary therapy and psychiatric consultation. "CVTC has a diverse staff of New York State licensed and certified professionals includes clinical social workers, a therapist, a psychiatrist, and a legal advocate. All are experts in the treatment of emotional trauma caused by victimization and have a combined total of over 150 years of experience. They also have over 170 dedicated volunteer advocates who are trained to provide emergency room crisis intervention, advocacy and emotional support for sexual assault and domestic violence survivors and their families." Funding CVTC is partially funded by the Office of Victims Services as part of the New York State Government. CVTC holds a yearly gala that honors a new group of survivors and/or advocates each year. Ticket sales go to funding CVTC. In 2025, the gala honorees were Drew Nixon, Evelyn Yang, and E. Jean Carroll. Some recent years' total fundraising totals have been 5.84 million in 2021, 4.91 million in 2022, and 5.43 million in 2023.

79355167	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unitary%20modular%20tensor%20category	Unitary modular tensor category	In mathematics, a unitary modular tensor category is a certain type of algebraic structure, defined by equipping a modular tensor category with additional data that reflects the principle of unitarity in quantum mechanics. Unitary modular tensor categories are relevant to the algebraic theory of topological quantum information since they conjecturally provide a complete description of the algebraic properties of anyons in 2-dimensional topologically ordered systems. Mathematically, a unitary modular tensor category is defined to be a modular tensor category in which all of the hom-spaces are equipped with inner products, compatible with each other and with the additional structures on the modular tensor category. On the level of skeletonization, a unitary modular tensor category has the same structure as a modular tensor category except that the F-symbols and R-symbols are required to assemble into unitary matrices. The allowed gauge transformations on a unitary modular tensor category must be unitary changes of basis. Uniqueness of unitary structure Importantly, if a modular tensor category admits a unitary structure then it is a theorem of David Reutter that this unitary structure is unique. This means that even though unitarity is defined as a structure, it can be treated as a property. On physical grounds, it is expected that all of the modular tensor categories arising from topological order should be unitary modular tensor categories. In fact, it is believed that every unitary modular tensor category should describe the anyon content of some topological phase. Every unitary fusion category admits a canonical spherical structure inherited from the inner product on its hom-spaces. As such, there is no distinction between "unitary fusion category" and "unitary spherical fusion category". Thus, a unitary modular tensor category can be defined as a unitary braided fusion category, with no reference to spherical structure. References Topological quantum mechanics Category theory

History In 1992, the 54th Separate Guards Reconnaissance Prut-Pomeranian Battalion of the Soviet Armed Forces was subordinated to the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine following the Dissolution of the Soviet Union. The personnel of the battalion swore allegiance to the Ukrainian people. Since 1992, the battalion's personnel have been actively participating in peacekeeping operations in the Balkans, Africa, and the Middle East. On 17 November 2014, near an observation post near Novoorlivka, an improvised explosive device blew up a Ural-169, while coming to rescue, a soldier of the battalion, Yurchenko Igor Petrovych was killed in a second IED attack. On 10 December 2014, near the settlement of Nikishine, during a "truce," when Ukrainian forces were not allowed to open fire, 10 Russian "marines" snuck up on 4 Ukrainian soldiers, of which two split up to force the Russians to withdraw without firing, the Russians ambushed them and killed the two with sniper fire and grenade launchers, one amongst the two was a battalion soldier, Kiris Vasyl Vasylovich. At the end of January 2015, the unit, commanded by Senior Lieutenant Serhiy Svishch, a group of the battalion arrived to replace personnel at a stronghold near Sanzharivka as the Separatists launched an offensive on the stronghold after heavy artillery and mortar shelling. In the ensuing battle, the Ukrainians managed to destroy two separatist tanks and a part of the assaulting force, but one separatist tank began moving towards the trench where Svyshch Serhiy Serhiyovych was present, he was rolled over by the tank and died. The third tank was also destroyed soon after his death. Another soldier of the battalion, Wenger Oleksandr Anatoliyovych was killed in this battle. On 14 July 2015, a soldier of the battalion, Hrynchuk Yuriy Petrovych was killed during a mortar attack on a Ukrainian stronghold near Leninske. On 4 August 2015, during a mortar attack by separatists on an observation post at near Leninske, a shell exploded killing a soldier of the battalion Trofimchuk Valeriy Vasyliovych along with a soldier of the 57th Brigade. On 13 April 2016, a soldier of the battalion, Levin Konstantin Vladyslavovich was killed by a sniper near Travneve. On 18 April 2016, a soldier of the battalion Zhordochkin Vadim Vikentiyovych was killed in action near Shyrokyne. On 23 July 2016, a soldier of the battalion, Bessarab Konstantin Nikolaevich was killed by artillery fire near Hnutove. On 10 October 2016, three soldiers of the battalion, Nenitsa Anatoly Valeriyovych, Babivskyi Ruslan Gennadiyovych and Volkov Yuri Vasilyevich were killed as a result of mortar shelling of Shyrokyne. On 22 November 2016, a soldier of the battalion Kaptovanets Maryan Romanovych was killed during a clash between Shyrokyne and Vodyane. On 10 July 2017, a soldier of the battalion (Babkov Vitaliy Igorovych) was killed as a result of a landmine explosion near Stanytsia Luhanska. On 1 September 2018, a soldier of the battalion, Ivan Aleksandrovich Belyaev was killed as a result of an unknown explosive device detonation while carrying out engineering work during construction of fortifications in Svitlodarsk. In November 2019, a soldier of the battalion, Atamanenko Oleksandr was killed in action. On 13 May 2020, while performing combat training missions near Kramatorsk, two officers of the battalion Suprigan Andriy Valeriyovych and Kuzmenko Dmytro Pavlovych died as a result of landing from a helicopter straight into the water. On 12 March 2021, a soldier of the battalion Pekur Oleksandr Valentynovich was killed as a result of sniper fire at a combat post near Marinka. Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine, it saw combat against Russian forces. On 27 February 2022, it took part in combat in Milkivska Gora during the Battle of Chernihiv. On 10 June 2022, a soldier of the battalion, Kostyuchenko Serhiy Petrovych was killed in action. A soldier of the battalion, Medvedev Oleg Rocker was killed on 16 September 2023 in Sumy Oblast.

79355259	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siliprandi	Siliprandi	Siliprandi ( or ) was the surname of a Mantuan family of incunable printers. The founder of the printing business was Domenico (). He was followed by his brother Alvise (), who quit the printing business after 1480. Their father, Gaspare ( – 1481), provided financing. Biographies Gaspare, son of Antonio, was probably born in the first decade of the 15th century. He first appears in the historical record as an adult on 14 June 1442. He lived in Suzzara. With his father, he acquired he numerous lands in Luzzara, San Benedetto Po and Gonzaga. By 1452, his father had died, as had his father brother Pietro Giovanni (or Peterzano). Together with the latter's son, Antonio, Gaspare continued to increase the family's landholdings. In 1453, he relocated to Mantua and worked as a shoemaker. Gaspare had two sons, Domenico (born before 1435) and Alvise (born before 1452). On 17 November 1460, Domenico was authorized as a notary in Mantua. In a letter of 13 April 1462 addressed to the Marquis Ludovico III Gonzaga, Domenico claimed to have worked as a notary in Forlì and Florence. On 4 December 1465, Gaspare wrote to the Marquise Barbara, Ludovico's wife, over a dispute with Bartolomeo Marasca. In the letter he claims to have four adult daughters. One, Lucia, was married by 1485 and widowed by 1492. In 1469, Domenico was imprisoned for provoking disorders. After writing to the marquis, his sentence was lifted in 1470. In 1472, he entered the book trade and, in 1472, the printing business. His first printings were done in Venice. On 8 December 1472, he wrote to the marquis claiming persecution by the Manutan authorities, who had passed another sentence aginst him. In 1473, he set up a bookstore in Padua. Gaspare remained at Mantua, but often contributed to the financing of the printing operations. In 1475, an agreement with Petrus Maufer to print Gentile da Foligno's Commentary on Avicenna fell through. In 1476 at Padua, Domenico formed a company with Petrus Maufer and Carlo Ridolfi. His partners, however, abandoned the printing midstream and Domenico had to get it finished by Paul Butzbach in Mantua. In 1477, he sued Maufer and Ridolfi but lost in court. Alvise joined the printing business in 1477 and in 1479 was described as a bookseller in Mantua. By 14 June 1479, Domenico had died, leaving Alvise heir to his debts. Some of Domenico's goods were impounded, but Alvise had settled the debts by November. Alvise published his last books in 1480. Gaspare died between 29 March and 8 October 1481. Alvise is described in subsequent documents as a bookseller. In 1483, with Giovanni Francesco Stellini Tironi, he opened a bookshop on the in Padua. An inventory of their offerings survives from 1484. They had 887 copies representing about 130 different printed editions. He also bought up land. He was still living on 15 January 1499. Printings Domenico's known printings include: Burchiello, Sonetti (Venice, 1472), a first edition by the German typographer Christoph Arnold Bartolo da Sassoferrato, Lectura super tribus libris Codicis (Mantua, 1476), by Paul Butzbach Petrarch, Rerum vulgarium fragmenta, with the commentary of Pseudo-Antonio da Tempo, and Triumphs, with the biography of Petrarch by Pier Candido Decembrio (Venice, 1477) Petrarch, Rerum vulgarium fragmenta, with the commentary of Pseudo-Antonio da Tempo and the biography of Petrarch attributed to Pseudo-Antonio (Venice, 1477), a revised edition of the preceding Plutarch, Greek Questions and Roman Questions, translated into Latin by , edited by (Venice, 1477) and possibly: al-Qabisi, Isagoge ad iudicia astrorum (Mantua, 1473?), by Johann Vurster Alvise's known printings include: Missale Romanum (Venice, 1477) Psalterium Romanum (Venice, 1478) Nicholas of Lyra, Postilla super Actus apostolorum and Epistolas canonicales et Apocalypsim, with Paolo da Santa Maria, Additiones (Mantua, 1480) Pietro Marso, Silva cui titulus est Andes (Mantua, 1480) References Works cited Further reading Italian business families Printers of incunabula Businesspeople from Mantua

79355308	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert%20Gronen	Herbert Gronen	Herbert Gronen (13 January 1944 – 29 April 2023) was a German footballer. He played a midfielder for various clubs from the early 1960s to the mid-1970s. He notably played for Bundesliga club Alemannia Aachen and Austrian club Rapid Wien throughout his career. Career Emerging from the youth of Borussia Brand in 1963 alongside Herbert Wimmer, Gronen was signed by the regional league club Alemannia Aachen for the 1963–64 Regionalliga. At the end of his debut season, he won the championship in the Regionalliga West with the team. In the subsequent promotion playoffs to the Bundesliga, he only finished third in Group 2 with this was also the case in the following season when his team finished the season in second place. On the other hand, he was successful in the DFB-Pokal, in which he advanced to the 1965 DFB-Pokal final with Aachen but lost 2–0 to Borussia Dortmund. Emerging as Regionalliga champions from the 1966–67 season, he and his team finished Group 2 of the promotion round to the Bundesliga as winners at the third attempt. In his first Bundesliga season, he made his debut on 19 August 1967 in a 4–0 defeat at home to Bayern Munich as he played 32 games, scoring two goals. In the following season, he contributed to second place behind Bayern Munich in the championship with 24 games and one goal. At the end of the 1969–70 season, his 25 games, in which he scored a goal, could not prevent the club's relegation to the Regionalliga West. He would have great compatibility with his teammate and friend Hans-Jürgen Ferdinand as Gronen would often give Ferdinand many assists for opportunities to score goals with his iconic "Matthew Trick". Following another season for Alemannia Aachen, he moved to Fortuna Düsseldorf for the 1971–72 season, for whom he scored one goal in 20 games in his return to the Bundesliga. Following this, Gronen played the first half of the 1972–73 season for the Austrian national league club Schwarz-Weiß Bregenz, which had been recently relegated. From 17 March 1973 to 31 October 1975, he played 77 games for Rapid Wien, for whom he scored twelve goals. On 27 May and 2 June 1973, he played both finals of the Austrian Cup against SSW Innsbruck, who initially won their home game 1–0. Rapid then won the second leg in Vienna following Gronen's equalizer with the final score of 2–1, but the cup victory went to Innsbruck due to the away goals rule.

He was one of the first storm chasers in the United States to die during a tornado; he was killed during the 2013 El Reno tornado, along side Tim Samaras. Life Young was born in Oakland, California on May 14, 1968. He graduated from Carmel High School and received a bachelor's degree from the University of California, Berkeley in the field of economics. Young also received a master's degree in atmospheric science at the University of Nevada, Reno. He began storm chasing in 2000 following work on Hollywood film sets. At ChaserCon in 2002, Young met Tim Samaras; the pair would go on several storm chases together, seeing a total of over 125 tornadoes. In 2012, Young helped film the documentary series Storm Chasers, which aired on the Discovery Channel.<ref>{{Cite web \|date=2013-06-02 \|title=Tornado kills 'Storm Chasers Carl Young, Tim and Paul Samaras \|url=https://www.latimes.com/entertainment/tv/showtracker/la-et-st-storm-chasers-die-tornado-oklahoma-tim-paul-samaras-carl-young-20130602-story.html \|access-date=2025-03-01 \|website=Los Angeles Times \|language=en-US}}</ref> In early 2013, Young promised to Dalia Terleckaite, who was his girlfriend at the time, that he would cease chasing, although Young continued to chase storms. Prior to his death, Young also helped write Monthly Weather Review'' publications with the TWISTEX team. El Reno tornado and death In the spring of 2013, TWISTEX was conducting lightning research (including with a high-speed camera) when active tornadic periods ensued in mid to late May. Young drove a Chevorlet Cobalt to the Oklahoma City area along with Tim and Paul Samaras. At 6:23 p.m. on May 31, 2013, all three members of the group were killed by a violent tornado with wind speeds estimated to have been in excess of near the Regional Airport of El Reno, Oklahoma. The TWISTEX vehicle was struck and thrown by a subvortex, which generate the highest winds; some of these were moving at within the parent tornado. Shortly before they were killed, Young noted how there was no rain around the vehicle as the wind grew "eerily calm". Tim Samaras responded: "Actually, I think we're in a bad spot." The tornado was sampled by University of Oklahoma RaXPol radar as wide, the widest tornado ever recorded. The true size of the multiple-vortex tornado confused onlookers by its mammoth proportions containing orbiting subvortices larger than average tornadoes and its expansive transparent to translucent outer circulation. The strong inflow and outer-circulation winds in conjunction with rocky roads and a relatively underpowered vehicle also hampered driving away from the tornado. The tornado simultaneously took an unexpected sharp turn, closing on their position as it rapidly accelerated within a few minutes from about to as much as in forward movement and swiftly expanded from about to wide in about 30 seconds, and was mostly obscured in heavy precipitation, all of which combined so that several other chasers were also hit or had near misses. It was the first known instance of a storm chaser or a meteorologist killed by a tornado. Young's body was found miles away from the vehicle.Even before it was known that Young and the two other passengers had been killed, the event led many to question storm-chasing tactics, particularly in close proximity to tornadoes. In addition to the three TWISTEX members, the tornado killed five other people, including local resident Richard Charles Henderson, who had decided to follow the storm. Atmospheric scientists and storm chasers embarked on a major project to gather information and analyze what happened regarding chaser actions and meteorological occurrences. A makeshift memorial was established at the site soon after the incident and a crowdfunded permanent memorial, spearheaded by Doug Gerten, the deputy who first found the vehicle wreckage, was later established, although it was vandalized in late March 2016, with the monument struck by bullets and the American flag cut away from the flagpole.

It is from the existence of the modular representation that modular tensor categories get their name. From the perspective of topological quantum field theory, the modular representation of arrises naturally as the representation of the mapping class group of the torus associated to the Reshetikhin–Turaev topological quantum field theory associated to . As such, modular tensor categories can be used to define projective representations of the mapping class groups of all closed surfaces. Construction Associated to every modular tensor category , it is a theorem that there is a finite-dimensional unitary representation where is the group of 2-by-2 invertible integer matrices, is a vector space with a formal basis given by elements of the set of isomorphism classes of simple objects, and denotes the space of unitary operators relative to Hilbert space structure induced by the canonical basis. Seeing as is sometimes referred to as the modular group, this representation is referred to as the modular representation of . It is for this reason that modular tensor categories are called 'modular'. There is a standard presentation of , given by . Thus, to define a representation of it is sufficient to define the action of the matrices and to show that these actions are invertible and satisfy the relations in the presentation. To this end, it is customary to define matrices called the modular and matrices. The entries of the matrices are labeled by pairs . The modular -matrix is defined to be a diagonal matrix whose -entry is the -symbol . The entry of the modular -matrix is defined in terms of the braiding, as shown below (note that naively this formula defines as a morphism , which can then be identified with a complex number since is a simple object). The modular and matrices do not immediately give a representation of - they only give a projective representation. This can be fixed by shifting and by certain scalars. Namely, defining and defines a proper modular representation, where is the global quantum dimension of and are the Gauss sums associated to , where in both these formulas are the quantum dimensions of the simple objects.

79355439	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation%20Chin%20Brotherhood	Operation Chin Brotherhood	In June 2024, the Chin Brotherhood Alliance, a military alliance of several Chin ethnic organisations, launched Operation Chin Brotherhood, shortened to Operation CB, an operation to capture regions which the CBA is active in. This operation has been aided by several non-Chin groups, notably the Rakhine-led Arakan Army and the Magway Region-based Yaw Army. During the offensives, 4 town's have been captured by the CBA: Matupi, Lailenpi, Mindat, and Kanpetlet. Preceding Offensives Before the launch of Operation CB, the CBA launched several other offensives. On 22 December 2023, the CBA began an offensive on the strategically important town of Kyindwe, Kanpetlet Township, planning to capture the town by Christmas. After intensifying operations in March 2024, the CBA captured the town on 29 April 2024. After Kyindwe's capture, the CBA moved on Tedim on 26 May. After capturing several positions in the city, the offensive stalled, with both Chin and junta forces remaining in the town. Operation Chin Brotherhood On 9 June, the CBA, Arakan Army and Magway-based Yaw Army began Operation Chin Brotherhood, attacking Matupi, officially announcing its start 4 days later. Shortly after the announcement, the Chinland Council issued a statement asking the Arakan Army to refrain from military and administrative operations in Chinland. Despite this, the offensive continued with CBA aligned forces capturing one of the two junta battalion bases outside Matupi on 17 June. Clashes between the CBA and CBA broke out during the push towards the final base, leading to 2 CBA deaths. The CNA/Chinland Council was forced to retreat from the Matupi area by 24 June On 29 June, the CBA captured the remaining junta base near Matupi and took over the town. Infighting continued with CNA detaining other Yaw Defense Force soldiers and MDF (under the CBA) and AA taking Lailenpi, Matupi Township from the CDF-Mara and CNA on 11 July. On 9 November, the Chin Brotherhood Alliance relaunched Operation Chin Brotherhood, launching simultaneous offensives on Falam and Mindat, capturing most of the former. On 15 December, 123 junta troops and police officers from Mindat district and township police compounds, together with their families, surrendered to the CBA. On 21 December, the CBA declared Mindat a junta-free zone following the capture of the town. The following day, neighboring Kanpetlet was peacefully captured after junta forces retreated, leading to the liberation of the entirety of southern Chin State. References
79355453	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pam%20the%20Bird	Pam the Bird	Pam the Bird is a graffiti tag that has appeared widely throughout Melbourne since 2023. A cartoon bird, Pam the Bird has gained noteriety for its abundance and high-profile locations, from buildings and freeway signs to heritage-listed sites such as Flinders Street railway station and the Clifton Hill Shot Tower. After a police investigation that began in January 2024, the tag's alleged creator and an accomplice were arrested in January 2025. A court case is ongoing. Background In September 2022, 18-year-old Jack Gibson-Burrell was arrested on the Gold Coast, Queensland, after he spray painted a rail worker in the face at Park Road railway station. The man had caught Gibson-Burrell spray painting a large bird at Park Road railway station. Gibson-Burrell was charged with 24 offences and placed on two-year probation. When queried by reporters outside court, he squawked like a bird. Journalists retroactively described Gibson-Burrell's tag as an instance of "Pam the Bird". Reports of Pam the Bird in Melbourne date back to at least 2023. That year, the grafitti tag became well-known as a common sight not just along train lines and tram routes, but also on the trains themselves. It also appeared on other prominent locations, such as the back of West Gate Freeway signs. Herald Sun reported that social media pages had emerged following Pam the Bird. Some videos depicted vandals performing dangerous stunts to spray paint the bird, including by hanging off a bridge. The Instagram account @goodbirdart, which is obstensibly run by a third party, regularly posts behind-the-scenes Pam the Bird content, and has amassed over 70,000 followers. In January 2024, Victoria Police began an investigation into Pam the Bird. It was led by Senior Constable Scott Nicholls. In the later months of 2024, Pam the Bird's range expanded out of Melbourne's west. It received media attention following an incident on 10 July 2024 in which a clock tower at Flinders Street railway station near Elizabeth Street was defaced with graffiti. Several other high-profile vandalism incidents attributed to Pam the Bird attracted news attention, including vandalism of a Novotel hotel in the inner Melbourne suburb of South Wharf on 20 January 2025, the Cheese Stick sculpture over the CityLink tollway, the offices of the Nine Network in Docklands, the Uncle Tobys silo in West Footscray, the Clifton Hill Shot Tower and Comeng train carriages operated on the Melbourne suburban rail network. Police stated that Pam the Bird made heavy use of abseiling to conduct graffiti activities. Description Pam the Bird is a graffiti tag consisting of a side view of a cartoon bird. In court, Nicholls said, "We typically see this bird graffiti has a sharp triangle pointed beak with a line that separates the upper and lower portion of the beak that approximately extends three quarters away from the tip". Pam the Bird varies widely: it may be coloured, embellished, or a simple outline. It is often accompanied by text, including "MP.", which The Age wrote was the name of a graffiti crew. Possible identity and criminal cases On 30 January 2025, Victoria Police arrested Jack Gibson-Burrell, a 21-year-old Yarraville resident who police allege is Pam the Bird's sole creator, and Matthew Raoul White, a 39-year-old alleged accomplice.A police investigation into Gibson-Burrell had begun in January 2024 which found evidence that people had been making suspicious visits to his home over a period of months. CCTV footage of the Novotel break-in added to police suspicions regarding Gibson-Burrell as the perpetrator of the vandalism. Gibson-Burrell was charged with 50 offences including criminal damage and shop theft, and a subsequent charge of intentionally causing injury was added following allegations Gibson-Burrell stabbed a man using a kitchen knife in 2024. Police also sought government assistance with organising a Federal Bureau of Investigation search warrant of Instagram with the goal of identifying Gibson-Burrell as the owner of @goodbirdart. White, the owner of the graffiti paint shop Bodega located in the suburb of Abbotsford, was charged with a total of 17 offences, including criminal damage. On 25 February 2025, Gibson-Burrell attended Melbourne Magistrates' Court with the goal of being released on bail, having been on bail previously in 2023. This bail application was approved on 27 February 2025, with conditions including living with his grandmother in East Geelong, a curfew at night, not being in possession of equipment related to graffiti or abseiling and an AU$30,000 surety paid by friend Finlay Dale. The total worth of the damage allegedly caused by Gibson-Burrell was estimated to be over AU$200,000. The Lord Mayor has condemned Pam the Bird.
