title: SEC16B

abstract: Protein transport protein Sec16B also known as regucalcin gene promoter region-related protein p117 (RGPR-p117) and leucine zipper transcription regulator 2 (LZTR2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SEC16B gene.

# SEC16B

**Protein transport protein Sec16B** also known as **regucalcin gene promoter region-related protein p117** (RGPR-p117) and **leucine zipper transcription regulator 2** (LZTR2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the *SEC16B* gene.

## Discovery

RGPR-p117, which was named as a regucalcin gene promoter region-related protein, was originally discovered as a novel transcription factor that specifically binds to a nuclear factor I (NFI) consensus motif TTGGC(N)6CC that is located on the 5’-flanking region of the regucalcin gene (rgn) in 2001. This gene is a highly conserved a leucine zipper motif, and it was also named as the leucine zipper transcription regulator 2 (LZTR2). In 2007, RGPR-p117 was also renamed as Sec16 homologue B (SEC16B), an endoplasmic reticulum export factor.

## Gene

The gene consists of 26 exons spanning approximately 4.1 kbp and is localized on human chromosome 1q25.2. This gene expression is stimulated through various signaling factors in cells. RGPR-p117 is present in the plasma membranes, cytoplasm, mitochondria, microsomes and nucleus of the cells. Cytoplasm RGPR-p117 is translocated to nucleus. Phosphorylated RGPR-p117 specifically binds to the TTGGC motif in the promoter region of various genes to enhance the gene expression of various proteins, and plays a crucial role as a transcription factor in the cells.

## Function

In the role in the regulation of cell regulation, RGPR-p117 possesses protective effects on apoptotic cell death induced by various signaling factors. Overexpression of RGPR-p117 did not cause an alteration of cell proliferation and led to significant decreases in protein and DNA contents in cloned normal rat kidney proximal tubular epithelial NRK52E cells. It also plays a role as an endoplasmic reticulum export factor to deliver to newly synthesized proteins and lipids to the Golgi. RGPR-p117/SEC16B may be involved in human obesity to possess an association between single nucleotide polymorphisms and different measures of obesity.

# Star Wars: Light of the Jedi

***Star Wars: The High Republic: Light of the Jedi*** is the first novel of the *Star Wars: The High Republic* multi-media project launched in 2021. The novel was written by Charles Soule, and is set approximately 200 years before the events of *Star Wars: The Phantom Menace*. It was followed by a sequel, *The Rising Storm*.

## Setting

The story introduces several powerful Jedi during a time of galactic peace, termed "The High Republic," as they prepare to launch the Starlight Beacon, a massive space station which will aid communication between distant worlds. Interference by the villainous pirate group known as the Nihil creates a catastrophic hyperspace event called "The Great Disaster," which places the Jedi and the planets they protect in danger.

## Plot

The Legacy Run, a cargo and passenger ship, speeds through hyperspace and, while attempting to avoid a collision with an unexpected obstacle, shatters into many pieces. The debris from the large vessel begins to emerge from hyperspace at different locations and points in time across the galaxy, causing chaos in shipping routes and disastrous loss of life where the pieces impact occupied planets. The Jedi, led by Avar Kriss, attempt to aid the citizens of the Hetzal System to escape disaster; they use the Force to reroute a piece of the Legacy Run containing dangerous gas away from impacting a sun, which would have caused a supernova explosion.

Republic Chancellor Lina Soh closes the hyperspace lanes. With the opening ceremonies of the newly completed Starlight Beacon only a few weeks away, she tasks the Jedi with discovering the cause of the "emergences" and finding a way to predict the next events. As they search the galaxy for answers, the pirate group known as the Nihil seek to take advantage of the closed hyperspace lanes. Marchion Ro, who holds the title of the Eye of the Nihil, has devised a way to predict the path of the next "emergence," and manipulates the Nihil leaders, the Tempest Runners, into a scheme to blackmail the planets who will soon be destroyed by the debris. The Tempest Runners soon begin to fight with each other and greed overtakes them. One of them reveals his presence to the Republic during a failed blackmail attempt, and the Nihil are confronted in space by Republic and Jedi fighters. Marchion Ro uses the infighting to seize control of the Nihil organization.

Marchion Ro sends Nihil forces to the planet Elphrona to kidnap a wealthy family. Jedi Master Loden Greatstorm and his Padawan Bell Zettifar foil the attempt, but Loden Greatstorm is captured by the Nihil. Marchion Ro confesses to Greatstorm that he orchestrated the Legacy Run's hyperspace accident, the "emergences," and the Jedi's rescue of the family on Elphrona, in order to create the chaos which led to his new control of the Nihil, as well as to capture a Jedi. He has more plans for the Jedi and the Nihil that have yet to be revealed. When the "emergences" cease, Lina Soh re-opens the hyperspace lanes and launches the opening of the Starlight Beacon in an attempt to restore hope to the galaxy.

## Main characters

* **Avar Kriss**, a Jedi Master, considered the best and noblest of the Jedi.
* **Loden Greatstorm**, a Twi’lek Jedi Master, master of Padawan Bell Zettifar.
* **Elzar Mann**, a Jedi who forms a close relationship with Avar Kriss.
* **Burryaga**, a Wookiee Padawan with heightened emotional sensitivity.
* **The Nihil**, a group of brutal, savage marauders, based in the Outer Rim.
* **Marchion Ro**, the Eye of the Nihil, an important post within the Nihil organization, who plots the group's attacks.

## Reception

In the first week of its release, *Light of the Jedi* was the #2 best selling novel on Amazon, and #1 on *The New York Times* Best Seller list of hardcover fiction, staying on the list for four weeks.

*Light of the Jedi* received mostly positive reviews, though some were mixed on the story and its standing as an introduction to the era. /Film called the novel "an intriguing and ambitious start to a new era," and Screen Rant praised Soule's efforts to launch the new saga: "The galaxy he introduces feels familiar and yet different, gripping in a way that's absolutely thrilling." *The Washington Post* identifies Light of the Jedi as "a welcoming entry point for newcomers to *Star Wars*, the lore of which can be intimidating to the uninitiated."

*Den of Geek* said the novel offers "an excellent adventure if you're able to just stick around long enough to figure things out... Cool creatures, inventive action that bends but never breaks the rules of the Force, and compelling relationships and perspectives are all here. But *Light of the Jedi* also requires the reader to do some work, with an opening that introduces so many characters there's no time to understand why one should care about any of them."

Forbes also gave *Light of the Jedi* a mixed reception, calling "the Nihil and their various leaders a lot more interesting than the actual Jedi in this story," claiming "there are *way* too many perspectives... so much so that it's hard to really pick characters to empathize with." Escapist Magazine criticized the book's "drawn-out pacing and odd creative choices", as well as calling its dialogue stilted and finding *Light of the Jedi* to be "a fairly traditional disaster story."

# Brussels Barbarians

The **Brussels Barbarians** Rugby Football Club (also known as the Babas) are a rugby union club in Belgium, formed in 1968, one of two expatriate rugby clubs in Belgium. The club consists of two men's teams, which play matches every Sunday afternoon between September and May in the Flander's Regional 1st Division. Matches are played throughout Belgium.

The Brussels Barbarians' home ground, named the Elephant Pitch, is in Tervuren, a suburb of Brussels. The club is a partner club of Saracens.

## History

In September 1968 James D Adams and fiancée Judy Robb formed a rugby club to play on Saturdays, unlike the Belgian League which played on Sundays, in order to celebrate after the match. As a result, the club did not play in the Belgian League but arranged fixtures with South Coast English sides, and British Army and Dutch teams. In 1970, the second team was established, and in 1972 the club beat the Belgian National side and won the Belgian Cup. In 1973, the third team was launched, and the club had fixtures against Coventry, Blackheath, Newbridge and Public School Wanderers.

In 1974 the Barbarians won the Belgian Cup for the second time, and in May 1978 they went on a successful seven-match tour of the USA, winning all their games.

In 1980 the club entered the Belgian League division five. After winning promotion in successive seasons, they won the Premier Division championship in their year, in 1985. At the end of that season the club celebrated with a third major tour, to Colorado, US. They have since been on tours to Spain, Czechoslovakia, Boston, Estonia and Majorca. In 1982 they won the Belgian Cup for the third time and toured Canada.

The club organised international charity rugby matches in 1986, 1987, 1990 and 1991, bringing many of the top rugby players from the Five Nations of the 1970s and early 1980s to Belgium to play against a Belgian Select side, which raised over 2.5 million Francs for various charities. The last occasion in 1991 was for the support of the Belgian wife and children of Brussels British's captain Leslie Joyce following his death in a car crash a few months earlier.

The majority of players come from Great Britain and Ireland. At one point, all three sons of the ambassador of Western Samoa played for the club. The eldest of these, Vince Fepuleia, went on to play for Western Samoa against Wales at Cardiff Arms Park in 1988.

During the mid-1980s the Barbarians fielded a first 15 with players from 11 different countries. In 2003, the Barbarians had 22 nations represented in its player list, including players from countries without a strong Rugby tradition. One former player, Freddy Thielemans, served as Mayor of Brussels in 1994.

title: Billy Hagan (burlesque)

abstract: Billy Hagan (1889–1986) was a burlesque comedian whose catchphrase was "cheese and crackers". The phrase came from his religious German immigrant father, who used it as a substitute for blasphemy. When Hagan died, Milton Berle called him "one of the funniest men on the burlesque circuit. I learned a lot of my expertise from him." According to Ralph G. Allen, one of Hagan's most famous sketches was "Meet Me Around the Corner," which he performed on the Mutual wheel. Born William Hagedorn in San Francisco, Hagan boxed and was the amateur lightweight champion of California before breaking into show business in 1907. Hagan met his future wife, Anne Toebe (1894-1968), in 1910 when she auditioned as a chorus girl. They married in 1914 and toured together until 1931, when she left show business to raise their son. Toebe regularly performed in a boxing skit with Hagan and was also an early stripteaser. Hagan spent 62 years in show business and often performed at the Trocadero Theatre in Philadelphia.

# Régis Cibasu

**Régis Cibasu** (born September 13, 1994) is a Zairian-Canadian professional football wide receiver for the Montreal Alouettes of the Canadian Football League (CFL).

## University career

Cibasu played U Sports football with the Montreal Carabins, originally joining the team in 2014 and playing wide receiver. He quickly established himself as a dominant force as he was named an RSEQ First Team All-Star and the RSEQ Rookie of the Year in 2014. He finished his stellar year with a Vanier Cup Most Valuable Player award after recording six receptions for 90 yards in a Carabins victory in the 50th Vanier Cup game in Montreal. He continued to have success over his five-year university career with the Carabins and finished as the program's all-time leading receiver with 183 receptions for 2,231 receiving yards and nine touchdowns in 38 career games.

## Professional career

### Toronto Argonauts

Cibasu was drafted in the third round, 20th overall, by the Toronto Argonauts in the 2018 CFL Draft as a wide receiver. However, he elected to return to university to complete his fifth and final year of eligibility. He was then signed on the 2019 CFL Draft day on May 2, 2019.

Upon making the active roster following 2019 training camp, he dressed in his first professional game on June 22, 2019, against the Hamilton Tiger-Cats as a back-up receiver. Following an injury to the team's starting fullback, Declan Cross, Cibasu switched positions to fullback and started his first professional game on July 6, 2019, against the BC Lions. For the 2019 season, he played in 16 regular season games and recorded three special teams tackles. He did not play in 2020 due to the cancellation of the 2020 CFL season and, as a pending free agent in 2021, he was released early by the Argonauts on February 8, 2021.

### Montreal Alouettes

On February 9, 2021, it was announced that Cibasu had signed with the Montreal Alouettes. He played in 13 regular season games in 2021 where he had five special teams tackles. After changing positions back to wide receiver in 2022, he made his first career reception on June 16, 2022, against his former team, the Argonauts. He played in 17 regular season games where he had two receptions for eight yards and four special teams tackles.

## Personal life

Cibasu was born in Kinshasa, Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of the Congo), but moved to southwest Montreal with his parents when he was three years old.

***Quercus velutina*** (Latin 'velutina', "velvety") , the **black oak**, is a species of oak in the red oak group (*Quercus* sect. *Lobatae*), native and widespread in eastern and central North America. It is sometimes called the **eastern black oak**.

*Quercus velutina* was previously known as yellow oak due to the yellow pigment in its inner bark. It is a close relative of the California black oak (*Quercus kelloggii*) found in western North America.

## Description

In the northern part of its range, *Quercus velutina* is a relatively small tree, reaching a height of 20–25 metres (66–82 feet) and a diameter of 90 centimetres (35 inches), but it grows larger in the south and center of its range, where heights of up to 42 m (138 ft) are known.

The leaves of the black oak are alternately arranged on the twig and are 10–20 cm (4–8 in) long with 5–7 bristle-tipped lobes separated by deep U-shaped notches. The upper surface of the leaf is a shiny deep green, and the lower is yellowish-brown. There are also stellate hairs on the underside of the leaf that grow in clumps. Some key characteristics for identification include that leaves grown in the sun have very deep U-shaped sinuses and that the buds are velvety and covered in white hairs.

Black oak is monoecious. The staminate flowers develop from leaf axils of the previous year and the catkins emerge before or at the same time as the current leaves in April or May. The pistillate flowers are borne in the axils of the current year's leaves and may be solitary or occur in two- to many-flowered spikes. The fruit, an acorn that occurs singly or in clusters of two to five, is about one-third enclosed in a scaly cup and matures in 2 years. Black oak acorns are brown when mature and ripen from late August to late October, depending on geographic location.

The fruits or acorns of the black oak are medium-sized and broadly rounded. The cap is large and covers almost half of the nut.

## Habitat and distribution

Black oak is found in all the coastal states from Maine to Texas, inland as far as Michigan, Ontario, Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, and eastern Texas.

It grows on all aspects and slope positions. It grows best in coves and on middle and lower slopes with northerly and easterly aspects. It is found at elevations up to 1,200 m (3,900 ft) in the southern Appalachians. In southern New England, black oak grows on cool, moist soils. Elsewhere it occurs on warm, moist soils. The most widespread soils on which black oak grows are the udalfs and udolls. These soils are derived from glacial materials, sandstones, shales, and limestone and range from heavy clays to loamy sands with some having a high content of rock or chert fragments. Black oak grows best on well drained, silty clay to loam soils.

The most important factors determining site quality for black oak are the thickness and texture of the A horizon, texture of the B horizon, aspect, and slope position. Other factors may be important in localized areas. For example, in northwestern West Virginia increasing precipitation to 1,120 millimetres (44 in) resulted in increased site quality; more than 1,120 mm (44 in) had no further effect. In southern Indiana, decreasing site quality was associated with increasing slope steepness.

Near the limits of its range, topographic factors may restrict its distribution. At the western limits black oak is often found only on north and east aspects where moisture conditions are most favorable. In southern Minnesota and Wisconsin it is usually found only on ridge tops and the lower two-thirds of south- and west-facing slopes.

## Ecology

### Associated plant species

Common tree associates of black oak are white oak (*Quercus alba*), northern red oak (*Quercus rubra*), pignut hickory (*Carya glabra*), mockernut hickory (*C. tomentosa*), bitternut hickory (*C. cordiformis*), and shagbark hickory (*C. ovata*); American elm (*Ulmus americana*) and slippery elm (*U. rubra*); white ash (*Fraxinus americana*); black walnut (*Juglans nigra*) and butternut (*J. cinerea*); scarlet oak (*Quercus coccinea*), southern red oak (*Q. falcata*), and chinkapin oak (*Q. muehlenbergii*); red maple (*Acer rubrum*) and sugar maple (*A. saccharum*); black cherry (*Prunus serotina*); and blackgum (*Nyssa sylvatica*).

Common small tree associates of black oak include flowering dogwood (*Cornus florida*), sourwood (*Oxydendrum arboreum*), sassafras (*Sassafras albidum*), eastern hophornbeam (*Ostrya virginiana*), redbud (*Cercis canadensis*), pawpaw (*Asimina triloba*), downy serviceberry (*Amelanchier arborea*), and American bladdernut (*Staphylea trifolia*). Common shrubs include *Vaccinium* spp., mountain-laurel (*Kalmia latifolia*), witch-hazel (*Hamamelis virginiana*), beaked hazel (*Corylus cornuta*), spicebush (*Lindera benzoin*), sumac (*Rhus* spp.), and *Viburnum* spp. The most common vines are greenbrier (*Smilax* spp.), grape (*Vitis* spp.), poison-ivy (*Toxicodendron radicans*), and Virginia creeper (*Parthenocissus quinquefolia*).

Black oak is often a predominant species in the canopy of an oak–heath forest.

### Seed production and dissemination

In forest stands, black oak begins to produce seeds at about age 20 and reaches optimum production at 40 to 75 years. It is a consistent seed producer with good crops of acorns every 2 to 3 years. In Missouri, the average number of mature acorns per tree was generally higher than for other oaks over a 5-year period, but the number of acorns differed greatly from year to year and from tree to tree within the same stand.

The number of seeds that become available for regenerating black oak may be low even in good seed years. Insects, squirrels, deer, turkey, small rodents, and birds consume many acorns. They can eat or damage a high percentage of the acorn crop in most years and essentially all of it in poor seed years.

Black oak acorns from a single tree are dispersed over a limited area by squirrels, mice, and gravity. The blue jay may disperse over longer distances.

### Response to competition

Black oak is classed as intermediate in tolerance to shade. It is less tolerant than many of its associates such as white and chestnut oaks, hickories, beech (*Fagus grandifolia*), maples, elm, and blackgum. However, it is more tolerant than yellow-poplar (*Liriodendron tulipifera*), black cherry, and shortleaf pine (*Pinus echinata*). It is about the same as northern red oak and scarlet oak. Seedlings usually die within a few years after being established under fully stocked over stories. Most black oak sprouts under mature stands develop crooked stems and flat-topped or misshapen crowns. After the over story is removed, only the large stems are capable of competing successfully. Seedlings are soon overtopped. The few that survive usually remain in the intermediate crown class.

Even-aged silvicultural systems satisfy the reproduction and growth requirements of black oak better than the all-aged or uneven-aged selection system. Under the selection system, black oak is unable to reproduce because of inadequate light. Stands containing black oak that are managed under the selection system will gradually be dominated by more shade-tolerant species.

Dormant buds are numerous on the boles of black oak trees. These buds may be stimulated to sprout and produce branches by mechanical pruning or by exposure to greatly increased light, as by thinning heavily or creating openings in the stand. Dominant trees are less likely to produce epicormic branches than those in the lower crown class.

### Damaging agents

Wildfires seriously damage black oak trees by killing the cambium at the base of the trees. This creates an entry point for decay fungi. The result is loss of volume because of heart rot. Trees up to pole size are easily killed by fire and severe fires may even kill saw timber. Many of the killed trees sprout and form a new stand. However, the economic loss may be large unless at least some of it can be salvaged.

Oak wilt (*Bretziella fagacearum*) is a potentially serious vascular disease of black oak that is widespread throughout the eastern United States. Trees die within a few weeks after the symptoms first appear. Usually scattered individuals or small groups of trees are killed, but areas several hectares in size may be affected. The disease is spread from tree to tree through root grafts and over larger distances by sap-feeding beetles (Nitidulidae) and the small oak bark beetle.

Shoestring root rot (*Armillaria mellea*) attacks black oak and may kill trees weakened by fire, lightning, drought, insects, or other diseases. A root rot, *Phytophthora cinnamomi*, may kill seedlings in the nursery. Cankers caused by *Strumella* and *Nectria* species damage the holes of black oak but seldom kill trees. Foliage diseases that attack black oak are the same as those that typically attack species in the red oak group and include anthracnose (*Gnomonia quercina*), leaf blister (*Taphrina* spp.), powdery mildews (*Phyllactinia corylea* and *Microsphaera alni*), oak-pine rusts (*Cronartium* spp.), and leaf spots (*Actinopelte dryina*).

Tunneling insects that attack the boles of black oak and cause serious lumber degrade include the carpenter worm (*Prionoxystus robiniae*), red oak borer (*Enaphalodes rufulus*), the twolined chestnut borer (*Agrilus bilineatus*), the oak timber worm (*Arrenodes minutus*), and the Columbian timber beetle (*Corthylus columbianus*).

The gypsy moth (*Lymantria dispar*) feeds on foliage and is potentially the most destructive insect. Although black oaks withstood a single defoliation, two or three defoliations in successive years kill many trees. Other defoliators that attack black oak and may occasionally be epidemic are the variable oak leaf caterpillar (*Heterocampa manteo*), the orange striped oakworm (*Anisota senatoria*), and the brown tail moth (*Euproctis chrysorrhoea*).

The nut weevils (*Curculio* spp.), gall-forming cynipids (*Callirhytis* spp.), filbertworm (*Melissopus latiferreanus*), and acorn moth (*Valentinia glandulella*) damage black oak acorns.

## Named hybrids involving black oak

Black oak is well known to readily hybridize with other members of the red oak (*Quercus* sect. *Lobatae*) group, being one parent in at least a dozen different named hybrids.

## Uses

The inner bark of the black oak contains a yellow-orange coloring from the pigment quercitron, which was sold commercially in Europe until the 1940s, and lending the species its former common name of yellow oak.

# Billy Hagan (racing driver)

**Billy Joe Hagan** (March 22, 1932 – November 16, 2007) was a NASCAR owner/driver. He owned Hagan Racing and was known for winning the 1984 NASCAR Winston Cup Series championship with Terry Labonte.

## Career

He made three starts in NASCAR's Grand National/Winston Cup division, finishing eighth in his first start, the inaugural Talladega 500 in a self-owned 1968 Mercury Cyclone. He did not field another car until 1975, finishing 19th once again at Talladega. He also fielded a car for five races for Skip Manning.

In 1976, he fielded the #92 Stratagraph Chevrolet Chevelle Laguna for Manning, and he won Rookie of the Year honors. Manning was released in 1978, and replaced by Terry Labonte. Hagan hired Petty Enterprises crew chief Dale Inman for the 1984 season. Labonte won the Southern 500, and won the 1984 championship. Labonte left the team in 1986, and was replaced by Sterling Marlin. Labonte returned to the team in 1991, but was unable to continue their success. 1994, marked Hagan's last season as a single car owner, fielding cars for John Andretti and Randy MacDonald. In 1996, his shop was purchased by Triad Motorsports. Hagan continued to serve as a co-owner of the operation until the team's demise in 1999.

In 1981 Hagan entered a Chevrolet Camaro stock car under the Stratagraph team name in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Powered by a modified 350-cubic-inch Chevrolet small block, the car qualified well enough in the IMSA GT class, but was sidelined by a crash caused by brake failure. Drivers were Billy Hagan, Cale Yarborough, and Bill Cooper; also listed by some sources was Bobby Mitchell. The following year, he came 17th at 1982 24 Hours of Le Mans, always on Camaro V8 350 inch Chevrolet small block (#81 team Stratagraph inc.), paired with Gene Felton. The other team car (#80 Camaro V8, Stratagraph inc.) arrives 19th.

## Death

Hagan died on November 16, 2007, at the age of 75.

title: Boundary 2

abstract: Boundary 2, often stylized boundary 2, is a quarterly peer-reviewed academic journal of postmodern theory, literature, and culture. Established in 1972 by William V. Spanos and Robert Kroetsch, under the title boundary 2, a journal of postmodern literature, the journal moved to Duke University Press in the late 1980s and is now edited by Paul A. Bové. Since the early 2000s the journal has been closed to unsolicited submissions. This policy was described by Jeffrey Williams, editor of Minnesota Review, as one that "seems a little too closed, and would go in the opposite direction of taking chances". In contrast, the editors note that "instead [we] will publish only material that identifies and analyzes the tyrannies of thought and action spreading around the world and that suggests alternatives to these emerging configurations of power." boundary 2 has published special issues focusing on postmodernism in individual countries such as Greece or Canada, as well as a book of articles previously published in the journal. In an interview published in the Minnesota Review, Spanos discusses the history of the journal, its financial and editorial problems, and the motivations for various changes over the years, including the journal's practice of publishing articles by invitation only, refusing unsolicited submissions. The Boundary 2 editorial collective also publishes an online-only, open access peer-reviewed journal called b2o: an online journal, which appears two or three times each year.

title: Boundary Bend, Victoria

abstract: Boundary Bend is a small town in the state of Victoria, Australia. It is near the junction of the Murray River and Murrumbidgee River. It is located about 50 kilometres east along the Murray Valley Highway from the twin towns of Robinvale in Victoria and Euston in New South Wales, about 90 km north of Swan Hill. At the 2016 census, Boundary Bend and the surrounding area had a population of 132. The access to the junction of the two rivers is down a track off the highway. It was at this point that Captain Charles Sturt and his party of explorers first sighted the Murray River in 1830. They had travelled down the Murrumbidgee, and continued downstream along the Murray in their whaleboat. Boundary Bend Post Office opened on 6 April 1923. For many years, there were two Paddle Steamer hulls located just underwater on the southern bank of the Murray River. These were the Canally and the Hero. Both hulls were raised and removed for restoration February 1998. The PS Hero was restored to operation at Echuca. Boundary Bend is popular for its fishing and relaxed lifestyle. Many returned soldiers from the First World War were allocated farming blocks to the south of the town.

# Boudin

**Boudin**, black pudding in English, is essentially pig's guts filled with blood and other ingredients, such as onions, spinach, etc. (French pronunciation: \[budɛ̃\]) The added ingredients vary in French, Luxembourgish, Belgian, Swiss, Québec, Acadian, Aostan, Louisiana Creole, and Cajun cuisine.

## Etymology

The Anglo-Norman word *boudin* meant 'sausage', 'blood sausage', or 'entrails' in general. Its origin is unclear. It has been traced both to Romance and to Germanic roots, but there is not good evidence for either (cf. boudin). The English word *pudding* probably comes, via the Germanic word *puddek* for sausage, from *boudin*.

Some modern chefs, such as John Folse and Olivier Poels, attribute boudin to ancient Greece by way of Aphtonite, to whom they attribute the first mention of *boudin noir* in the *Apicius*.

## Types

* *Boudin ball*: A Cajun variation on *boudin blanc*. Instead of the filling being stuffed into pork casings, it is rolled into a ball, battered, and deep-fried.
* *Boudin blanc*: Originally, a white sausage made of pork without the blood. Variants include:
* *Boudin noir*: A dark-hued blood sausage, containing pork, pig blood, and other ingredients. Variants of the *boudin noir* occur in French, Belgian, Cajun and Catalan cuisine. The Catalan version of the *boudin noir* is called *botifarra negra*. In the French Caribbean, it is known as *boudin Créole* or by local names, such as *boudin rouge Antillais* in Guadeloupe, and infused with spice or rum. In Britain a similar sausage is called "black pudding", the word "pudding" being an anglicized pronunciation of *boudin*, and probably introduced after the Norman Conquest.
    + *Boudin rouge*: In Louisiana cuisine, a sausage similar to Cajun *boudin blanc* with pork blood added to it, though less commonly made. This originated from the French *boudin noir*.
* *Boudin vert*: A green sausage made of pork meat and cabbage and kale. Popular in the Belgian province of Walloon Brabant and in the Walloon immigrant areas of the Door Peninsula of Wisconsin where it is called Belgian Trippe.
* *Boudin valdôtain*: with beetroot, spices, wine and beef or pork blood. in the Aosta Valley of Italy.
* *Brown-rice boudin*: Brown-rice *boudin* is a less common variation made from brown rice with taste similar to traditional pork *boudin*.

## In the United States

The journals of the Lewis and Clark Expedition include an early record of *boudin blanc* in the Louisiana Territory during an encounter with French fur trapper Toussaint Charbonneau on May 9, 1805, who prepared it using buffalo intestine, meat, and kidney suet, boiled the links, and fried them in bear grease.

The term boudin in the Acadiana region of Louisiana is commonly understood to refer only to *boudin blanc*, and specifically to the regional combination of rice, pork, and seasonings originally made at rural communal hog butcherings since the 18th century. Also popular is seafood boudin, consisting of crawfish or crab, shrimp, and rice.

Cajun boudin is available most readily in the Acadiana region of southern Louisiana, though it may be found nearly anywhere in "Cajun Country" extending along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico from eastern Texas to western Mississippi. Several Louisiana towns and cities stake claims based on their boudin; Scott, Louisiana, was named "Boudin Capital of the World" in 2012, while Jennings was named "Boudin Capital of the Universe" and former "Boudin Capital of the World" Broussard redesignated itself the "Intergalactic Boudin Capital of Positive Infinity".

There are numerous meat markets and Cajun stores devoted to the speciality, though boudin is also sold from many convenience and grocery stores in other towns and areas along Louisiana's portion of Interstate 10, referred to by the Southern Foodways Alliance and some local tourism bureaus as the Southern Boudin Trail. Since Cajun boudin freezes well, it can be shipped outside the region if made and packaged in a federally approved facility.

Boudin noir is available in Illinois in the Iroquois County towns of Papineau and Beaverville, with their Quebecois heritage. The dish is the featured cuisine at the annual Beaverville Founder's Day, held the second weekend of September. People travel from hundreds of miles to partake of the boudin.

## "Le Boudin"

Boudin gave rise to "Le Boudin", the official march of the French Foreign Legion. "Blood sausage" is a colloquial reference to the gear (rolled up in a red blanket) that used to top the backpacks of Legionnaires. The song makes repeated reference to the fact that the Belgians do not get any "blood sausage", since the king of the Belgians at one time forbade his subjects from joining the Legion (the verse says "*ce sont des tireurs au cul*").
