# La Cosiata

**La Cosiata**, also known as the **Revolution of the Morrocoyes**, was a political separatist movement that broke out in the city of Valencia, Venezuela, carried out by General José Antonio Páez and Miguel Peña Páez on April 30, 1826, fighting for Venezuelan secession from Gran Colombia.

Initially, the movement fought for reform of the Cúcuta Constitution and a break with the authorities of Santa Fe de Bogotá while maintaining the protection of Simón Bolívar. Some conclude that these events had been foreshadowed since the birth of the Republic of Gran Colombia, since a centralized system was adopted in the hands of the political and economic elites when it was founded. Under the Cúcuta Constitution, the government had become absolutist, and Venezuelan authorities were subject to the decisions of the centralized Senate of Gran Colombia (New Granada, Venezuela and Ecuador); in Peru and Bolivia there was news about a new (but unpopular) lasting constitution. Several regions, including Venezuela, asked for autonomy and the several years of struggle for independence were not in vain. The movement ultimately marked the birth of the Republic of Venezuela.

## Etymology

The origin of the political movement's name is not as most expect; according to research carried out by historian, Professor José M. Ameliach N., which he reflected upon in his article "*La Cosiata fue el principio del fin*", edition of the newspaper El Informador de Barquisimeto, dated January 22, 2012, its etymological meaning stems from the custom from Venezuela, which at the time gave a certain name to some political eventuality. There was a contemporary Italian comedian who had arrived in the country and tended to use the word "*Cosiata*" in his routines to refer to theatrical events without importance or meaning, and since that was the fashionable word for the occasion, the media picked it up.

## Background

By 1821, the Cúcuta Constitution (Constitution of Gran Colombia) had been causing discomfort among Venezuelans from the beginning, only being enacted in Caracas under protest from the Municipality. The election of Francisco de Paula Santander for the Vice Presidency of the Republic, the choice of a centralist system instead of a federal one, and the election of Bogotá as the capital of the newly formed Union, were also points of great discord throughout the populace, which felt that the decisions being made were not benefiting Venezuela. The central constitution, which could not be reformed for ten years, provided for certain federal measures over time, but relied on the people abiding by the Magna Carta and the law.

On 31 August 1824, Francisco de Paula Santander decreed that there would be a general enlistment of all citizens between the ages of 16 and 50 in the country and demanded a contingent of 50,000 men from the Department of Venezuela to be sent to Bogotá. This was motivated by the constant onslaught of royalist guerrillas, Venezuela's ongoing recovering from the emancipatory war, and fears of a joint army of France and Spain. At the time, there was a prevalent belief that France and Spain would enter an alleged "Holy Alliance" and form a powerful army.

To his credit, General José Antonio Páez, who had been exercising the functions of General Commander of the Department of Venezuela (Caracas, Carabobo, Barquisimeto, Barinas and Apure) since 1822, delayed the execution of that decree for almost a year, fearful not only of a general mutiny, but also to show their displeasure at the government's decisions. Subsequently, and due to the continuous pressure from Bogotá, he decided to accept the call for enlistment of the Venezuelans, which finally ended in resounding failure due to the recruitment of only 800 citizens, so they were forced to make a second and third call in collaboration with the Brigadier General Juan Escalona (Intendant of the Department of Venezuela) ending these new attempts in bloody disturbances. Reports of excesses in recruitment reached the Municipal Council of Caracas, which led to an accusation that would prosper in the Senate of Bogotá.

The part of the facts did not take long for the news to reach the Gran-Colombian capital, immediately sending the corresponding documentation to present the report on the situation. Vice President Santander took advantage of the situation to request that Congress proceed with great prudence in the face of a political crisis that was affecting the relationship between Caracas and Bogotá, resorting to reminding the deputies of the brilliant career of General Páez and the need to count on his person if it was possible for the good of the Union. Páez is finally removed from his position as General Commander of the Department of Venezuela, being immediately called to Bogotá to face trial, by vote of the Senate.

This is how Páez hands over command to General Juan de Escalona, but Páez was advised, by Miguel Peña among others, who believed that his presence before the government of Santafé (Bogotá) would be the scaffold, Miguel Peña named facts of what occurred with Colonel Leonardo Infante, a Venezuelan officer who had been sentenced to be shot in March 1825, accused of the murder of Lieutenant Perdomo, but Miguel Peña, by refusing to sign the final sentence, had been suspended from his duties for one year. from March 24, 1825. Páez refuses to obey the order to move to Bogotá, finally residing in his house in the City of Valencia. Three months later a revolt of citizens arises in front of the Municipal Council of the locality, the next day the mayors declare that before the alteration of the public order that was taking place in the province, it was necessary to bring Páez back to the leadership of the country. Faced with such a situation, José Antonio Páez declares himself in rebellion.

Bolívar, who had been re-elected President and upon learning of this situation, left Lima for Venezuela on September 4, 1826, arriving in Guayaquil on September 12 and Bogotá on November 16, then headed for Cartagena and from there by sea, arriving at Puerto Cabello on December 31, by January 19, 1827 in the same city, Bolívar had decreed a cloak of oblivion over the performances of the participants of "La Cosiata". Bolívar met with Páez, reaffirming his liberating union and the Liberator granted him a general amnesty and ratified José Antonio Páez Herrera as Civil and Military Chief of the Department of Venezuela. However, the divisions between Venezuelan and New Granadan leaders increased in view of the delay in the constitutional reforms requested by the citizens, intensifying in subsequent years.

Bolívar returned to Santafé at the beginning of 1827, encountering strong resistance in the political circles that were grouped around General Santander. The trust that the Liberator placed in his closest military collaborators, mostly Venezuelans and British, and their frequent excesses, added one more reason to the differences between Bolívar and the members of Congress.

## Foundation of the Republic of Venezuela

On April 2, 1828, due to the movement initiated by General José Antonio Páez and others who also sought the revision of the Constitution of Gran Colombia, what is known as the Ocaña Convention was held with the aim of electing the Congress constituent that would modify the Constitution of Cúcuta. Those attending the convention were deputies from the Departments of Colombia, Ecuador, Panama and Venezuela, these in turn were formed into two factions, the Centralists led by Simón Bolívar and the Federalists led by Francisco de Paula Santander on the Colombian side and José Antonio Páez on the Venezuelan side, with the latter group having more followers.

Bolívar, with his fervent desire to see Gran Colombia united in the face of internal and external aggression, decides to impose his will, thus establishing a dictatorship as a last resort. In August 1828, he presented a new Constitution with a marked centralist accent and for the first time a presidential system for life in which he could have the power to appoint his successor. This was the final spark that ignited the spirits of those seeking secession, seeing that proposal as a return to the monarchical system that they had gotten rid of in the War of Independence against Spain; For this reason, multiple attempts to assassinate the Liberator arise.

On December 27, 1829, an assembly gathered in the Convent of San Francisco in Caracas disregarded the authority of Bolívar and the Colombian Government, handing over power to Páez who in an official letter let Bolívar know, which was read in a convention meeting in Bogotá for January 1830 where he urges him to accept the separation of Venezuela. This convention called the Admirable Congress was convened by the Liberator himself with the intention of reconciling the factions that had been created in the Republic and thus avoid the dissolution of Gran Colombia, so upon receiving the news from Venezuela, he requested dictatorial powers from Congress. to meet with Páez in Mérida (Venezuela) and remedy the crisis, but such permission was denied, for which Simón Bolívar finally resigned his position in that same month of January 1830.

Páez then decides to form a Provisional Government by becoming Head of the Administration and issues a decree where he calls for the election of deputies for a Constituent Congress that would meet in the city of Valencia on May 6, 1830, which culminated in the creation of the Republic of Venezuela and the establishment of Valencia as the provisional capital.

The Constitution that was to govern the new Republic of Venezuela was sanctioned on September 22, 1830, entering into force that same month.

On March 24, 1831, the legal vote was taken to elect the President of the Republic, resulting in General José Antonio Páez Herrera being elected for the first constitutional period of four years as President of the Republic, who obtained 136 votes (86.07%) of the 158 voters who voted. The next day, voting was held to elect the first Vice President of the Republic, and since none of the candidates obtained a legal majority, the election was perfected and Mr. Diego Bautista Urbaneja was appointed for two years.

On April 11, 1831, General José Antonio Páez took the legal oath as Constitutional President of Venezuela; an excerpt from his speech that day upon taking office:

> The truth is that one of the best periods in our history opens then, and precisely in relation to the political and moral organization of the Republic. Prudence, firmness, probity, sagacious appreciation of the impossibility of separating from the military chief at that time, but at the same time courageous intention to watch over him and reduce him; laborious and consistent enthusiasm to work for an effective public administration and to balance freedom and order, such were the virtues of that generation, which managed to convert the dismemberment of Colombia into a patriotic and legalistic movement, initiated under such disastrous auspices...

President Páez ruled with relative peace during his term, his government being made up mostly of high-ranking military veterans of the War of Independence, achieving a slight recovery of the economy devastated by the war, mainly due to the enactment of the Law of Freedom of Contracts of 1834 and the exports of Coffee. Without a doubt, under his direction the Republic was established (born under the command of the Conservative Party).

However, several revolutions had to be faced, such as the one led in Barcelona and Cumaná by General José Tadeo Monagas, the Pro-Monarchist Revolution of José Dionisio Cisneros and the Pro-Colombian Revolution of Cayetano Gabante, both in Guárico during 1834. Along with this faced serious difficulties of a religious order, with the Archbishop of Caracas, Doctor Ramón Ignacio Méndez, and a politician, sponsored by soldiers dissatisfied with not intervening directly in the public administration, others by civil groups and members of the university community who supported the candidacy civilista of the doctor José María Vargas despite his reluctance to accept his application.

Finally, in 1835, José Antonio Páez delegated power to José María Vargas, the first civilian to lead the country.

# Ralph Blane

**Ralph Blane** (July 26, 1914 – November 13, 1995) was an American composer, lyricist, and performer.

## Life and career

Blane was born **Ralph Uriah Hunsecker** in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. He attended Tulsa Central High School. He studied singing with Estelle Liebling in New York City. He began his career as a radio singer for NBC in the 1930s before turning to Broadway, where he was featured in *New Faces of 1936* (1936), *Hooray for What!* (1937), and *Louisiana Purchase* (1940). In 1940 he formed a vocal quartet ("The Martins") with his friend Hugh Martin which performed on radio and in nightclubs.

Martin and Blane formed a songwriting partnership. Together they wrote music and lyrics to *Best Foot Forward* (1941) and *Three Wishes for Jamie* (1952). The duo penned many American standards for the stage and MGM musicals. The team's best-known songs include "The Boy Next Door", "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" and "The Trolley Song", all written for the 1944 film musical *Meet Me in St. Louis*. Facing the challenge of writing a song about a trolley, the duo visited a public library, and in a book they found the caption "Clang, clang, clang went the trolley", which formed the nucleus for the lyric of their song, which earned them their first Oscar nomination (their second was for "Pass That Peace Pipe", written in collaboration with Roger Edens for the 1947 film adaptation of *Good News*). *Meet Me in St. Louis* was adapted for a 1989 Broadway musical of the same name.

Blane also collaborated with Harry Warren, Harold Arlen, and Kay Thompson, among others.

In 1983, Blane was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame.

In 1991, Blane sang "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" at The Magic Kingdom in performances of Walt Disney World's Christmas Candlelight Processional. George Kennedy narrated the Christmas Story during the performances.

He is buried in Broken Arrow's Park Grove Cemetery.

# The Banjo (Gottschalk)

***The Banjo***, Op. 15, is a composition for piano by the American composer Louis Moreau Gottschalk. Composed in 1853, it is one of Gottschalk's best-known works. The piece features captivating imitations of mid-nineteenth-century African-American banjo techniques and includes demonstrations of techniques, such as up-picking and strumming, which are not found in other sources from the period.

## History

During the summer of 1853, Gottschalk undertook several compositions; among them was the first version of *The Banjo.* After taking the piece through a major overhaul, Gottschalk submitted it for publication in 1854 as his Opus 15.

The accuracy of Gottschalk's banjo imitations in the piece makes it a unique record of the sound of pre-Civil War African-American banjo playing, and it contains evidence of techniques not found in other sources, including combinations of "downstroking" and "up-picking" found in West African plucked lute performance. This unusual accuracy has enabled at least one modern banjo player to recreate the banjo music that Gottschalk transcribed, which invited speculation that Gottschalk may have taken his banjo imitations from actual transcription of an unnamed African-American banjo player. Unlike most banjo music in the popular minstrel shows of the time that more closely followed the melody of dance music, most of "The Banjo" consists of variations of a repeating phrase as is done by musicians in the Senegambia region in West Africa, the source for the banjo's ancestors.

## Musical analysis

*The Banjo,* written in two-four time in the key of F-sharp major, begins with a variant of the ending theme doubled in octaves. Then the piece explores a strikingly West African-style series of variations on a basic repeating phrase. When the melody from the introduction comes back in, it barely has time to establish itself before a difficult passage in sixteenths takes over. Thundering octaves then take the melody back to the introduction and the whole thing is repeated.

Throughout the piece the melodies develop until Gottschalk brings the piece to an end with a brilliant pair of variations, containing Stephen Foster's Camptown Races.

## Performances

The Banjo was first performed in March 1855 by Gottschalk himself. Since then it has become a favorite encore of piano virtuosi around the world. French pianist Cyprien Katsaris created his own transcription of the piece, during performances he plays several wrong notes, adding to the humour of the piece.

# Sebastian Castellio

**Sebastian Castellio** (also Sébastien Châteillon, Châtaillon, Castellión, and Castello; 1515 – 29 December 1563) was a French preacher and theologian; and one of the first Reformed Christian proponents of religious toleration, freedom of conscience and thought.

## Introduction

Castellio later wrote that he was deeply affected and moved when he saw the burning of heretics in Lyon by the French Inquisition, and at the age of twenty-four he decided to subscribe to the teachings of the Reformation. In the spring of 1540, after witnessing the killings of the early Protestant martyrs, he left Lyon and became a missionary for Protestantism.

## Early career

In 1543, after the plague struck Geneva, Sebastian Castellio was one of the only divines in Geneva to visit the sick and console the dying. Though Calvin himself did visit the sick, others among the Genevan ministers did not.

For his outstanding work, the Geneva City Council recommended Castellio's permanent appointment as preacher in Vandoeuvres; however in 1544 a campaign against him was initiated by Calvin. At the time, Castellio decided to translate the Bible into his native French, and was very excited to ask for an endorsement from his friend Calvin, but Calvin's endorsement was already given to his cousin Pierre Olivetan's French translation of the Bible, so Castellio was rebuked and turned down. Calvin wrote to a friend regarding the matter: "Just listen to Sebastian's preposterous scheme, which makes me smile, and at the same time angers me. Three days ago he called on me, to ask permission for the publication of his translation of the New Testament."

Castellio and Calvin's disagreements grew even wider when during a public meeting Castellio rose to his feet and claimed that clergy should stop persecuting those who disagree with them on matters of Biblical interpretation, and should be held to the same standards that all other believers were held to. Soon after, Calvin charged Castellio with the offense of "undermining the prestige of the clergy." Castellio was forced to resign from his position of Rector and asked to be dismissed from being a preacher in Vandoeuvres. Anticipating future attacks from Calvin, Castellio asked for a signed letter that outlined in detail the reasons for his departure: "That no one may form a false idea of the reasons for the departure of Sebastian Castellio, we all declare that he has voluntarily resigned his position as rector at the College, and up till now performed his duties in such a way that we regarded him worthy to become one of our preachers. If, in the end, the affair was not thus arranged, this is not because any fault has been found in Castellio's conduct, but merely for the reasons previously indicated."

## Years of poverty

The man who once was the Rector in Geneva was now homeless and in deep poverty. The next few years were desperate times for him. Though one of the most learned men of his time, his life came down to begging for food from door to door. Living in abject poverty with his eight dependents, Castellio was forced to depend on strangers to stay alive. His plight brought sympathy and admiration from his contemporaries. Montaigne wrote "it was deplorable that a man who had done such good service as Castellio should have fallen upon evil days" and added that "many persons would unquestionably have been glad to help Castellio had they known soon enough that he was in want."

History indicates that many perhaps were afraid to help Castellio for fear of reprisals from Geneva. Castellio's existence ranged from begging and digging ditches for food to proof-reading for the Basel printshop of Johannes Oporinus. He also worked as a private tutor while translating thousands of pages from Greek, Hebrew and Latin into French and German. He was also the designated successor to Desiderius Erasmus in continuing his work of the reconciliation of Christianity in the Protestant, Anabaptist, and Catholic branches, and prophetically predicted the French Wars of Religion, and potentially the destruction of Christianity in Europe, if Christians could not learn to tolerate and reach each other by love and reason rather than by force of arms, and in short become real followers of Christ, rather than of bitter, partisan, and sectarian ideologies. His writings were widely circulated in manuscript form for a time, but were later forgotten. John Locke desired their publication, but at that time it was a capital crime to even own copies of manuscripts by Castellio or on the Servetus controversy, so Locke's friends convinced him to publish the same ideas under his own name. These writings were remembered by foundational theologians and historians such as Gottfried Arnold, Pierre Bayle, Johann Lorenz von Mosheim, Johann Jakob Wettstein, and Roger Williams.

In 1551, his translation of the Bible into Latin was published; in 1555 his French translation of the Bible was published.

## Conflict with Calvin

Castellio's fortunes gradually improved, and in August 1553 he was made a Master of Arts of the University of Basel and appointed to a prestigious teaching position. However, in October 1553, the physician and theologian Michael Servetus was executed in Geneva for blasphemy and heresy – in particular, his repudiation of the doctrine of the Trinity. Many prominent Protestant leaders of the day approved of the execution, and Melanchthon wrote to Calvin: "To you also the Church owes gratitude at the present moment, and will owe it to the latest posterity. \[...\] I affirm also that your magistrates did right in punishing, after a regular trial, this blasphemous man." However, many other contemporary scholars, such as David Joris and Bernardino Ochino (also known as the remonstrators) were outraged both publicly and privately over the execution of Servetus. The synods of Zürich and Schaffhausen were far from enthusiastic, and Castellio took an especially hard line regarding the whole affair. He became enraged over what he saw as a blatant murder committed by Calvin, and spoke of his "hands dripping with the blood of Servetus."

As a defense of his actions, in February 1554 Calvin published a treatise titled *Defense of the orthodox faith in the sacred Trinity* (*Defensio orthodoxae fidei de sacra Trinitate*) in which he presented arguments in favor of the execution of Servetus for diverging from orthodox Christian doctrine.

Three months later, Castellio wrote (as Basil Montfort) a large part of the pamphlet *Treatise on Heretics* (*De haereticis, an sint persequendi*) with the place of publication being given on the first page as Magdeburg rather than Basel. The book was financed by the wealthy Italian Bernardino Bonifazio, was published under the pseudonym *Martinus Bellius*, and was printed by Johannes Oporinus, a known Basel book printer. It is believed that the pamphlet was co-authored by Laelius Socinus and Celio Secondo Curione. Concerning the execution of Servetus, Castellio wrote: "When Servetus fought with reasons and writings, he should have been repulsed by reasons and writings." He invoked the testimony of Church Fathers like Augustine, Chrysostom and Jerome to support freedom of thought, and even used Calvin's own words, written back when he was himself being persecuted by the Catholic Church: "It is unchristian to use arms against those who have been expelled from the Church, and to deny them rights common to all mankind." Asking who is a heretic, he concluded, "I can find no other criterion than that we are all heretics in the eyes of those who do not share our views."

Marius Valkhoff describes Castellio's *Advice to a desolate France* as a pacifist manifesto.

Castellio also can be credited with a huge advance in the promotion of the concept of limited government. He passionately argued for separation of church and state and against the idea of theocracy. Arguing that no one is entitled to direct and control another's thought, he stated that authorities should have "no concern with matters of opinion" and concluded: "We can live together peacefully only when we control our intolerance. Even though there will always be differences of opinion from time to time, we can at any rate come to general understandings, can love one another, and can enter the bonds of peace, pending the day when we shall attain unity of faith."

## Death

Castellio died in Basel in 1563, and was buried in the tomb of a noble family. His enemies unearthed the body, burned it, and scattered the ashes. Some of his students erected a monument to his memory, which was later destroyed by accident; only the inscription is preserved.

## Biography

His father was Enrique W. Gibson Bernaldo de Estremadoyro, son of James Thomas Gibson and María Pía Bernaldo de Estremadoyro y Vásquez. His mother was Dorotea Möller Sojo-Vallejo, daughter of Guillermo Möller Keetz and María Sojo-Vallejo. He was the brother of the poet Percy Gibson and uncle of the journalist Doris Gibson.

He studied at the Colegio Victor Bailly and, later, he entered the National University of San Agustín of Arequipa, from where he obtained a law degree in 1908. He obtained a doctorate in 1910, and a Ph.D. in 1936. He taught at his alma mater, as an interim professor of Ancient Literature, Art History, and Critical History of Peru (1907) and later became professor of Statistics, Finance, and Financial Legislation of Peru at the Universidad Mayor de San Marcos in Lima.

In 1913, he travelled to Europe. In England, he took courses at the Oxford University and the Cambridge University, from where he earned a degree of Masters in Arts. Then he went to France, where he studied at the Sorbonne University. In 1916, he returned to Peru.

He married in Arequipa with María Mercedes Lira de Romaña, with whom he had seven children.

In 1919, he was appointed first secretary, then an adviser, and finally a charge d'affaires at the embassy in the United States. He was appointed honorary attaché in Buenos Aires. Later, he was appointed as an honorary secretary in London. He was appointed as a minister plenipotentiary to Scandinavian countries and, later, to Bolivia.

In 1939, along with Manuel Prado and Ugarteche as President and Rafael Larco Herrera as First Vice President, he was elected Second Vice President of the Republic, a nominal position that he held until the end of that government, in 1945.

# Up&Up

"**Up&Up**" is a song by British rock band Coldplay from their seventh studio album, *A Head Full of Dreams* (2015). It was released as the third single of the record on 22 April 2016 by Parlophone. Background vocals in the song are provided by Beyoncé, Annabelle Wallis and Merry Clayton. A music video for the track, directed by Vania Heymann and Gal Muggia, was released on 16 May 2016.

## Background

The song contains a chorus choir, which featured nearly all the artists who have collaborated with the group, including Beyoncé, Brian Eno and the children and guests of the four musicians. Guitarist and singer Noel Gallagher also contributed, performing the song's second guitar solo, which was omitted in the radio edit.

## Music video

The band had released teasers on their social media accounts leading up to the video release. The music video directed by Vania Heymann and Gal Muggia was released on 16 May 2016. The video has been described on the band's website as a "poignant, surrealist montage which alludes to contemporary issues." The video itself consists of over-layered visuals, and has the band playing the song in various landscapes and locations. One of the locations used is the Croatian mountain range of Biokovo, upon which Chris Martin appears to be seated. Heyman and Mugglia have been credited for their creative use of stock footage throughout the video.

Scenes and visual effects for the video were created by GloriaFX, a Ukraine-based visual effects company, headed by Anatolii Kuzmytskyi in Ukraine and by Max Colt in the US. Martin called it "one of the best videos ever made". Some scenes were cut from the video to make it shorter, including a man with a volcano in place of his head.

The band's lead singer, Chris Martin feels that this was one of best videos to be made. He says ''The video is – I'm going to drop the mic here and say – I think it's one of the best videos people have made. Even if you take the music away. That's my point".

### Reception

*Billboard* magazine's Chris Payne described the music video as "appropriately epic" with "a heady, shoot-for-the-stars type of statement". Carl Williott of Idolator, who was reserved towards the song itself, felt that its video "elevates it thanks to some artfully trippy visuals". MTV UK called the video "weird and wonderful in every respect" and "magical yet poignant".

The video received nominations for Best Direction and Best Visual Effects at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards, winning the latter. The music video was also nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Music Video at the 59th Annual Grammy Awards.

## Live performances

After giving fans a live performance preview of the album on 21 November 2015 in Los Angeles, Martin said: "This is kind of the song we've been waiting to write for 15 years." The band performed the song at the Super Bowl 50 halftime show held on 7 February 2016 in Santa Clara, California. They were joined by Bruno Mars and Beyoncé while singing the last verses.

# John Wilkins Jr.

**John Wilkins Jr.** (December 22, 1761  April 20, 1816) was a United States Army officer who served as Quartermaster General of the United States Army from 1796 to 1802.

## Early life

Wilkins was born on December 22, 1761, in Donegal, now East Donegal, Pennsylvania, and raised in Carlisle. At age 15 the younger Wilkins enlisted for the American Revolution, and was assigned as Surgeon's Mate of the 4th Pennsylvania Regiment. He served in the position from April 8, 1780, until the close of the war on November 3, 1783. As a result of this service Wilkins earned the nickname "Doctor".

After the war Wilkins became a merchant and contractor in Pennsylvania and Presque Isle, Michigan, providing supplies and equipment to the United States Army in the Northwest Territory. In 1793 Governor Thomas Mifflin appointed Wilkins as Brigadier General of the Allegheny County Militia as part of Pennsylvania's response to the Whiskey Rebellion.

## Quartermaster General

President George Washington appointed Wilkins as Quartermaster General of the United States Army in June 1796. In October Wilkins attempted to resign, pleading the necessity of attending to personal business. His resignation was not accepted and he continued to serve, overseeing the supplying and equipping of an expanded Army in anticipation of war with France. Although the act of March 3, 1799, provided for a Quartermaster General with rank of major general, Wilkins was not appointed to that rank and served in the position as a civilian. The dispute with France was resolved without fighting, and Wilkins served until his position was abolished in March 1802 as part of a downsizing of the Army through the Military Peace Establishment Act.

## Later life

After leaving the Army, Wilkins returned to his business interests in Pennsylvania, including serving as President of the Pittsburgh branch of the Bank of Pennsylvania. Wilkins died in Pittsburgh on April 29, 1816. He was originally buried in the yard of Pittsburgh's First Presbyterian Church, and later interred in Pittsburgh's Homewood Cemetery.

## Family

Wilkins was the son of John Wilkins Sr. (1733  1810), a Captain in the American Revolution. He was the brother of Senator William Wilkins. He was the father of Judge Ross Wilkins. His nephew Wilkins F. Tannehill (1787-1858), served as the mayor of Nashville, Tennessee, from 1825 to 1827.

## Legacy

The town of Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, is named for General Wilkins.

## History

The Mormon Waybill an 1851 guide to the Mormon Road says that the campsite at Cottonwood Creek, has, "... good feed and water." Cottonwood Creek was 12.875 miles (20.720 km) southwest of Parowan Creek and 9 miles (14 km) northeast of Cedar Springs across the marshy Cedar Valley. The water of the creek was provided by the springs at the head of the stream, named for Joel H. Johnson, a Mormon, the earliest known settler at that location, in 1851. In 1854, other Mormon colonists settled along the creek and built a settlement nearby at 37°46′45″N 113°01′56″W / 37.77917°N 113.03222°W / 37.77917; -113.03222 called Fort Johnson.

title: Satō Nobuhiro

abstract: Satō Nobuhiro was a Japanese scientist and early advocate of Japanese Westernization. He is considered the founder of the "Greater East Asia" concept. Satō attempted to synthesize Western science with Japanese political and philosophical thought. His ideas contributed to the early modern consolidation of the religion of Shinto, especially in the form of State Shinto. In his 1825 treatise Tenchūku, Satō argued that the cosmology in the Kojiki was both indigenous to Japan and the most compatible of all world religions with astronomy. He extended the Western model, however, by arguing that Shinto provided additional explanations for astronomical phenomenon that had not yet been explained by Western astronomy. Satō advocated an authoritarian government based on Western science and political institutions. In his Keizai yōryaku, he wrote that "The rationale of economy is to manage the realm, develop goods, make domains affluent, and succor everyone." Satō considered the Western European great powers to be a threat that Japan needed to counter by radical economic and military reforms, as well as imperial expansion along Western European lines. His 1823 work A Secret Strategy for Expansion（宇内混同秘策） called for Japanese world domination, describing how China should be conquered via Manchuria. He suggested that the Japanese government embark on "colonial and agricultural undertakings" on uninhabited islands in the South China Sea. He also said that the Japanese government should take the Ryūkyū as a base to attack and capture Luzon Island by surprise, then use Luzon as a base for its "southward advance" to seize Java and other places, ultimately spreading its "military might" in Southeast Asia. He believed that Japan should "adopt suitable means of aggression and annexation" to "increase its national interests." This became the first draft of Japan's "southward advance" strategy.

# Sidney M. Schreiber

**Sidney Moses Schreiber** (November 18, 1914 – August 5, 2009) was an associate justice of the New Jersey Supreme Court from 1975 to 1984. His notable opinions on the court include expanding citizen access to public beaches and increasing consumer protection from drug companies. He also serves in the United States Army from 1943 to 1946.

## Early life and military service

Born in New York City, Schreiber grew up in Elizabeth, NJ. He graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Yale University in 1936. He earned his law degree at Yale Law School.

Schreiber began his legal career working as a staff attorney for the United States Railroad Retirement Board and the Securities and Exchange Commission. He put his personal career on hold in 1943, when he joined the United States Army during World War II. He served until 1946 and reached the position of lieutenant. Perhaps the highlight of his service was heading the War Crimes Review Section of the Judge Advocate's Office for the Third Army. In that position, he drafted documents for war crime trials involving German concentration camp.

After the war, Schreiber entered private practice. He also had the privilege of serving as a delegate to the 1966 New Jersey Constitutional Convention, which rewrote many of New Jersey's legislative articles. He also served as a Commissioner for the Union County Parks Commission.

In recognition of his service to New Jersey and the country, Governor William T. Cahill nominated Schreiber to the Superior Court in Hudson County in October 1972. Schreiber was later promoted to the New Jersey Supreme Court by former Governor Brendan Byrne in 1975. He served on the court for nine years.

When he retired from the bench in 1984, Schreiber joined the law firm Riker, Danzig, Scherer, Hyland & Perretti, in Morristown, New Jersey. While at the firm, Schreiber was an esteemed member of the firm's government affairs department, leading the department to be recognized among of the state's most influential practices.

In 1997 he was awarded with the William J. Brennan Award from the Association of the Federal Bar of New Jersey for his lifetime commitment to the New Jersey legal profession.

## Notable decisions

Schreiber was involved in many of the New Jersey Supreme Court's public-focused opinions of the late 1970s. During his tenure, he wrote the majority decisions that expanded the power of living wills, extended citizen access to public beaches, and clarified the responsibilities of drug companies to guard against suspected harmful side effects.

While on the bench, he also served as Chairman of the Supreme Court Committee on Civil Case Management and Procedures and as Chairman of the Committee on Budget and Procedure.

# Carlos D. Cidon

**Carlos Dominguez Cidon** (born 1959, León, died 11 May 2009 in León) was an internationally renowned chef and author from Spain.

## Biography

Cidon's grandfather was a food lover and occasional cook. Cidon grew observing his grandfather cook, and he inherited his love for food from him.

In 1975, Cidon got a job in a restaurant named "Akelarre", alongside Pedro Subijana, a well known chef of the era. In 1977, Cidon decided he wanted to pursue a career as a chef himself.

Cidon's presence in modern Spanish cuisine began expanding after he graduated from college, and he became a well-respected cook during the decade of the 1980s, while also studying the relationship between delicate drinks such as wine and food. Eventually, wines became one of his favorite ingredients.

In 1989, he had the opportunity to open his first restaurant, "Vivaldi". By 1994, Cidon was able to reopen the Leon historical center. He helped the center by cooking some of his most famous plates there.

In 1999, Cidon received the highest award a chef can get in Spain: the "Premio Alimentos", given by Spain's ministry of agriculture. The next year, he inaugurated his second restaurant, "El Cesar".

In 2004, American tire business giant Michelin gave Cidon their "Estrella de la Guia Michelin" award ("Michelin Guiding Star"), given by that company to Spain's top business achievers.

Cidon was named as delegate of Castilla and Leon and commissary of nutrition matters in Brussels. In addition, he has toured many countries as a restaurant guest chef, including the United States, England, Portugal, Italy, France, Germany, the Netherlands and Puerto Rico.

As well, official and unofficial external keyboards are available for some Samsung Galaxy devices, including the Galaxy Note 5, the Galaxy S6, the Galaxy S7, and some newer phones. Samsung calls its official external keyboard a "keyboard cover".

## History

### Naming

The phone's model number assigned by Samsung is **SGH-T699**. Over the months leading up to the device's launch, various leaks emerged assigning different names to this model: first "Samsung Apex Q," then "Samsung Galaxy S Blaze Q," and finally on August 15, 2012 the name that it would launch with was revealed: "Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G."

## Hardware

### Physical keyboard

Unlike many other Android handsets, the Galaxy S Relay 4G has a five-row physical keyboard.

### Screen

The phone has a 4-inch (480 x 800 pixel) WVGA Super AMOLED touchscreen with a pixel density of 233 ppi. This screen is identical to the one used on the similar-looking Samsung Epic 4G.

The phone's touchscreen controller chip is an Atmel MaxTouch MXT224E.

### Micro-USB

The phone includes a micro-USB port.

Due to limitations in the phone's included firmware, the phone does not support USB On-The-Go. Still, as with other modern Android phones, there are other ways to connect peripherals. For example: Bluetooth keyboards and many Bluetooth mice work with the phone, and a compatible monitor or TV can be connected using a compatible Mobile High-Definition Link cable. Alternatively, it may be possible for the phone's owner to "attach" a personal computer's keyboard, mouse, and monitor using an app such as TeamViewer QuickSupport.

### Processor and memory

The Galaxy S Relay 4G features a 1.5 GHz dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor with an Adreno 225 GPU. Initially it was reported that the phone would have the older S3 chipset, and this was even printed on the box, but Samsung and T-Mobile have both confirmed that it will launch with the newer S4 chipset.

The phone contains 1 GB RAM, 8 GB internal flash storage with approximately 5 GB available to the user, and supports up to a 32 GB MicroSD card.

The Micro SD card slot, after Jelly Bean update, will support a 64 GB Micro SD card.

### Cameras

The rear-facing camera has 5.0-megapixel resolution and includes the following features: 4x Digital Optical Zoom, Auto Focus, Multiple Shot Modes, Timer, Smile Shot, and Camcorder with 720p HD Recording. The front-facing camera has 1.3-megapixel resolution.

### Battery and power

The phone includes an 1800mAh battery, providing theoretical talk time up to 10 hours, and standby time up to 13 days. It uses a Qualcomm PM8921 power management chip to handle battery charging. The phone supports Qualcomm's "Quick Charge 1.0" technology, and can draw up to 2 amps from some (but not all) 2-amp chargers.

### Networks

The device features quad-band (850/900/1800/1900) GSM connectivity for 2G networks. UMTS bands I (UMTS 2100), II (1900), IV (1700/2100/AWS), and V (850) are supported. HSPA+ Category 24 provides a maximum theoretical data speed of 42 Mbit/s.

The Snapdragon S4 chipset supports both GPS and GLONASS for location and navigation.

## Software

The device ships with an assortment of included software.

### Carrier IQ

Carrier IQ is one of the many pieces of software included with the Galaxy S Relay. The software was produced by a controversial company based in Mountain View, California. It is not completely clear what the software does.

# Eucalyptus panda

***Eucalyptus panda***, commonly known as **tumbledown ironbark** or **Yetman ironbark**, is a species of small to medium-sized tree that is endemic to eastern Australia. It has dark ironbark, linear to lance-shaped adult leaves, flower buds in groups of seven, white flowers and cup-shaped or hemispherical fruit.

## Description

*Eucalyptus panda* is a tree that typically grows to a height of up to 20 m (66 ft) and forms a lignotuber. It has grey to black ironbark from the base of the trunk to the thinnest branches. Young plants and coppice regrowth have dull green, lance-shaped leaves that are 50–90 mm (2.0–3.5 in) long and 10–15 mm (0.39–0.59 in) wide. Adult leaves are the same shade of dull green on both sides, linear to lance-shaped, 50–110 mm (2.0–4.3 in) long and 8–22 mm (0.31–0.87 in) wide tapering to a petiole 10–20 mm (0.39–0.79 in) long. The flower buds are arranged in groups of seven on a branched peduncle 2–5 mm (0.079–0.197 in) long, the individual buds on pedicels 1–4 mm (0.039–0.157 in) long. Mature buds are oval to diamond-shaped, 4–7 mm (0.16–0.28 in) long and 3–4 mm (0.12–0.16 in) wide with a conical to beaked operculum. Flowering occurs from May to November and the flowers are white. The fruit is a woody, broadly cup-shaped to hemispherical capsule 4–6 mm (0.16–0.24 in) long and 5–7 mm (0.20–0.28 in) wide with the valves near rim level.

## Taxonomy

*Eucalyptus panda* was first formally described in 1958 by Stanley Thatcher Blake from material collected near Barakula by Samuel Roscoe Stevens in 1957. The specific epithet (*panda*) is from Latin meaning "bent" or "crooked", possibly referring the habit of this ironbark.

## Distribution and habitat

Tumbledown ironbark grows in woodland in sandy soil on plains and low ridges from near the Carnarvon National Park, south to Texas in Queensland, and just into New South Wales near Yetman.

## Conservation status

This eucalypt is listed as "listed concern" under the Queensland Government *Nature Conservation Act 1992*.

**TV Mania** was a British-American electronic band founded in 1995 that consisted of keyboardist Nick Rhodes and guitarist Warren Cuccurullo (both of Duran Duran), known for the 2013 release of a long-lost album, *Bored with Prozac and the Internet?*

## History

This long-running side project, which Rhodes and Cuccurullo returned to whenever work on various Duran Duran projects slowed down, produced more than 60 songs, but did not see a commercial release at the time, although the Duran Duran album *Medazzaland* contained some re-worked TV Mania material. A few songs have appeared on Cuccurullo's website and in the 2004 movie *Trollywood*, directed by Madeleine Farley.

The project was thought to be largely abandoned since Cuccurullo's dismissal from Duran Duran in 2001.

Production of the Duran Duran albums *Medazzaland* and *Pop Trash* by Cuccurullo, Rhodes and Anthony J. Resta was also credited to TV Mania, as well as SYN Productions, the production company founded by Simon Le Bon, his wife Yasmin, and Nick Wood. This was a departure from previous albums, where production was always credited to Duran Duran plus any outside producer.

After Rhodes came upon the original TV Mania DAT master tapes in a storage facility, an official release was planned.

## *Bored with Prozac and the Internet?*

In 2013, the long lost TV Mania album, *Bored with Prozac and the Internet?*, finally saw an official release on vinyl and a limited edition box set. The artwork was created by Rhodes and Andrew Day and features a cover illustration by Vania Zouravliov. It was released through the Vinyl Factory and digitally via The Orchard/Beatport.

The album was recorded from 1995 to 1996 by Rhodes and Cuccurullo as a side project of their full-time band, Duran Duran. The recordings remained unreleased for 17 years after having been presumed lost. The chance discovery of the album master tapes by Rhodes led to the set's 2013 release.
