**Sergio Sebastiani** (11 April 1931 – 16 January 2024) was an Italian prelate of the Catholic Church who was head of the Prefecture for the Economic Affairs of the Holy See from 1997 to 2008. He was made a cardinal in 2001. From 1960 to 1994 he worked in the diplomatic service of the Holy See, becoming an archbishop and apostolic nuncio in 1976 and leading the offices representing the Vatican in Madagascar, Mauritius, and Turkey.

## Biography

Sergio Sebastiani was born in Montemonaco, Italy. He studied at the Episcopal Seminary of Ascoli Piceno and later at the Archiepiscopal Seminary of Fermo. He continued his studies at the Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome where he earned his licentiate in theology and at the Pontifical Lateran University where he was awarded a doctorate in canon law. He was ordained on 15 July 1956 in Fermo. After this, he studied in Rome until 1960.

Sebastiani served as secretary of nunciature in Perú, 1960–1962; in nunciature in Brazil 1962–1966; auditor in nunciature in Chile, 1966–1967. He was recalled to the Vatican as secretary of Cardinal Cicognani and subsequently Cardinal Villot during their terms as secretaries of State, and later head of the secretariat of the Sostituto, 1967–1974. The decision was taken to appoint him to the rank of Counselor of nunciature in France with special charge before the Council of Europe, 1974–1976. He was created Prelate of honour on 30 April 1974.

On 27 September 1976, Pope Paul VI appointed him Titular Archbishop of Caesarea in Mauretania and Apostolic Pro-Nuncio to Madagascar. He added Apostolic Pro-Nuncio to Mauritius on 24 November. Sebastiani became Apostolic Pro-Nuncio to Turkey on 8 January 1985. In 1994, he was appointed General Secretary of the Central Committee for the Great Jubilee of the Year 2000. From 2 May 1996 to 3 November 1997, he was president of Peregrinatio ad Petri Sedem, the Vatican agency that promotes and supports pilgrims on their visits to Rome.

In 1997, Sebastiani was made President of the Prefecture for the Economic Affairs of the Holy See, part of the Roman Curia, responsible for auditing the temporal possessions of the Holy See. He served in this position until his resignation on 12 April 2008. Pope Benedict XVI named Velasio De Paolis as Sebastiani's successor.

Sebastiani was created Cardinal-Deacon of S. Eustachio on 21 February 2001, and was one of the cardinal electors who participated in the 2005 papal conclave that selected Pope Benedict XVI. On 21 February 2011, he opted for the order of Cardinal Priest, with his former diaconal church elevated to the level of cardinalitial title.

Sebastiani was the spiritual guide and protector of an organisation that styles itself the Sovereign Hospitaller Order of Saint John of Jerusalem, Knights of Malta, one of many private organszations mimicking the Sovereign Military Order of Malta.

Sebastiani died on 16 January 2024, at the age of 92.

# Ransom M. Callicott

**Ransom M. Callicott** (July 12, 1895 – November 14, 1962) was president of the National Restaurant Association, co-founder of Meals for Millions and a member of the Los Angeles, California, City Council from 1955 until his death. He was one of the doubters of the proposal to bring the baseball Dodgers from Brooklyn and install them in a new stadium in Chavez Ravine, insisting upon carefully examining the plans for the stadium before it was built.

## Biography

Callicott came to Los Angeles from Saint Louis, Missouri, in 1919 and began his career in the restaurant business as a busboy for the Boos Brothers restaurant chain. In 1931 he joined Clifford E. Clinton in the operation of Clifton's Cafeteria and in 1932 became Clinton's partner. He was a food consultant to the government in World War II, touring military camps and recommending diets for service personnel. He was a co-founder with Clinton of Meals for Millions, which packaged and distributed a high-protein product called MPF, or multipurpose food, to fight hunger. Other activities included director of the Welfare Foundation of Los Angeles and president of the Trojan Club—the only president to that date who had not attended the University of Southern California.

Callicott and his first wife, Anne Kennedy, divorced in 1939. He married again, to Alice Callicott, in 1952, and they lived at 201 South Occidental Boulevard.

Callicott, then 62, first suffered a heart ailment in April 1959 in Washington, D.C., as he accompanied Mayor Norris Poulson and Councilman James C. Corman in a bid to bring the 1960 Republican National Convention to Los Angeles; he was treated at Georgetown University Hospital. He died of a heart attack three years later in his home at 353 South Lafayette Park Place on November 14, 1962, leaving three young children, Bryan, Bret and Charles Edward, and a daughter by his first marriage, Mary Rose Brown. Burial was in Forest Lawn Memorial Park, Glendale.

## Business

As chairman of the Southern California Restaurant Association (1947–50), Callicott went to Washington, D.C., in February 1949 to lobby against a proposal to add restaurants to the federal wages and hours law. He said: "If it is passed, our industry would be faced with a 40-hour week. This would mean that unions would demand the same wages for 40 hours that now are paid for the prevailing 48 hours." He forecast higher prices, failing restaurants and unemployment if the bill were passed.

The association was host to the Pacific Coast Regional Restaurant Convention and Exposition in August 1948, with Callicott as speaker. He also planned a trip to the capital in May 1951 to fight new price ceiling rules on meat shipped from Denver, Colorado. When he returned, he urged restaurateurs to work against the Office of Price Stabilization rules or to eliminate meat entirely from their menus.

In 1949 he was president of the National Restaurant Association.

## Public service

### Commissions

Before his election to the council, Callicott was a member of the city's Civil Service Commission. As a commissioner, he urged overhaul of the 1925 city charter, which he called a "125,000-word spider web of entangling phrases in which any honest official, once caught, struggles vainly for release. The only beneficiaries of this web are the nameless spider architects who have a vested interest in chaos, conflict and controversy."

At the time of his death he was a member of the Los Angeles Coliseum Commission. As president of the commission, Callicott called for a Congressional investigation of the United States Olympic Committee in the wake of decision by that body to give support to Detroit, Michigan, for the 1968 Summer Olympics instead of Los Angeles, which had entered a bid. Speaking for the Los Angeles delegation to an Olympic Committee meeting in Chicago, which he headed, he said that the committee "likes foreign trips with all expenses paid and for that reason will consistently fail to press the bid of any United States city."

### City Council

#### Elections

Callicott ran for the Los Angeles City Council District 12 seat in 1953, losing to incumbent Councilman Ed J. Davenport in the final by just 443 votes. After Davenport died in June 1953, Callicott was one of the 13 hopefuls interviewed by a City Council committee to replace him. He "described himself as a middle-of-the-road political thinker and said that left-wing support which was attracted to his recent campaign for City Council developed only because this element was more antagonistic to Davenport." The council decided to appoint Davenport's widow, Harriett Davenport, to the position.

In 1955, however, Harriett Davenport did not stand for election, and Callicott was elected to the 12th District seat. He was reelected for a four-year term in 1959 and did not run in 1963.

In that era, the 12th District lay west of Downtown Los Angeles, between Figueroa and Catalina streets. It was bounded roughly by Venice Boulevard on the south, Sunset Boulevard on the north, Catalina Street on the west and Figueroa Street on the east.

#### Highlights

Callicott was chairman of the City Council's Planning Committee when Walter O'Malley, owner of the Brooklyn Dodgers baseball team, was making plans to build a new stadium in Chavez Ravine. As such, he received detailed plans for the 52,000-seat stadium and later endorsed the idea. He said:

> I'm not particularly a baseball fan, but I voted for the contract because I considered it good business for this city—and for all the cities surrounding us.

Other activities during his council service:

**Oil, 1956.** Despite protests from Councilwoman Rosalind Wyman and residents of Cheviot Hills, Callicott moved a successful resolution asking that the city-owned Rancho Park Golf Course be explored for oil. Oil production was later begun on the property, with royalties going to the city.

**Parking, 1956.** He proposed regulating the fees charged by private parking lots after he had to pay $1.60 for parking "slightly more than three hours" in the Pershing Square garage.

**Pershing Square, 1957.** Callicott was one of the first to recommend that the grass be removed from the Pershing Square park in Downtown Los Angeles in favor of concrete because "during a fashion show ... by the city's dress industry to keep its citizens abreast of new stylings, some 10,000 spectators were hampered by an edict ... to 'keep off the grass.' "

**Zoo, 1959.** Callicott was one of just five council members who, after eight hours of debate, voted against a city contract with a nonprofit called Friends of the Zoo to build and operate a World Zoo for the city of Los Angeles. The action earned him the enmity of the *Los Angeles Examiner,* whose publisher, Franklin S. Payne, sent him a special delivery letter, which arrived at 2 a.m., excoriating him for his vote.

**Tax, 1962,** The City Council rejected his bid to levy a city income tax, which he said would bring in $12 million a year.

**Yorty, 1962.** Callicott read a three-page statement in a City Council meeting accusing Mayor Sam Yorty of keeping the facts about civic problems from the public and maintaining a large public relations staff which was "lurking behind nearly every door and office of the City Hall." He said his statement was prompted by the mayor's accusations that the twelve council members who opposed plans for a hotel on city-owned land at Los Angeles International Airport were "puppets" for hotel and motel interests. Callicott referred to the successful recall election of Mayor Frank L. Shaw in 1938 of which he said he was one of the leaders.

# Sven Havsteen-Mikkelsen

**Sven Havsteen-Mikkelsen** (16 September 1912 – 14 February 1999) was a Danish painter who is remembered for his old Nordic landscapes, his church decorations and his woodcuts.

## Early life and education

After his parents, Johan Theodor Havsteen and Ella Holm-Jensen, divorced, Havsteen-Mikkelsen was brought up by the polar explorer Ejnar Mikkelsen. He studied art under Olivian Holm Møller (1929), Fritz Syberg (1929–1932), P. Rostrup Bøyesen (1932–1933) and Oluf Høst (1932–1933). He also spent short periods at the Norwegian Academy under Per Krohg (1933–1934) and at the Danish Academy under Elof Risebye (1942–1943).

## Artistic career

Havsteen-Mikkelsen's art and interests were deeply rooted in the Nordic countries. Under the influence of Ejnar Mikkelsen and thanks to early voyages to the Faroes, Iceland and Greenland, he was confronted while still young with subjects he would maintain throughout his life. He became especially interested in the age-old landscapes of the North, still free of the detrimental effects of civilisation. In his youth, Havsteen-Mikkelsen became acquainted with the Funen Painters where he also learnt the art of woodcut, a technique he would later use to illustrate books on Nordic literature. At the Academy in Oslo, his studies of stave church decoration developed his interest in sacred art.

After travelling widely outside Denmark, Havsteen-Mikkelsen settled first on Tåsinge and later on Ærø from where he toured the Danish countryside with Martin A. Hansen, Ole Wivel and Regin Dahl. From the 1950s, he became a central figure for church decoration in Denmark, completing altarpieces and religious works which often harmonised with existing Renaissance art. His work extended to stained glass windows which he often created with his son, the architect Alan Havsteen-Mikkelsen or with Mogens Frese. His landscapes from the Faroes and Iceland often depict early Christian communities but they are always free of human figures who are only to be found in his Biblical works. Among his landscapes depicting early Nordic cults are *Askestorm, Island* (1955) and *Beinisvörd, Færøerne* (1957). His portraits are often inspired by members of his family with 25 paintings of his wife Pam.

He illustrated many of Martin A. Hansen's books including *Orm og Tyr* (1952) with 400 of his woodcuts and *Rejse paa Island* (1954). He also illustrated Herman Melville's *Moby Dick* (1955). His illustrations are frequently based on very early Danish sacred art, both heathen and Christian. Another aspect of his illustrative work was postage stamp design. Together with his son Alan, he was the originator of an annual series of four or five stamps depicting different parts of Denmark (1974–1981). He also participated in earlier series (1970–1973) covering ships, architecture and frescos.

Havsteen-Mikkelsen received many awards for his work including the Eckersberg Medal in 1960 and the Thorvaldsen Medal in 1995.

## Church decorations and furnishings

Of particular note is the decorative work Havsteen-Mikkelsen completed in some 60 churches in Denmark, Norway, Greenland and the Faroes comprising altarpieces, paintings, stained glass windows and crucifixes. Favourite subjects include Christ calming the storm on the Sea of Galilee, Christ's Crucifixion, and Christ's appearance in Emmaus.

In 1985, Havsteen-Mikkelsen designed the bronze gates to Frederik IX's Mausoleum adjacent to Roskilde Cathedral.

## Permanent exhibitions

A permanent exhibition of Havsteen-Mikkelsen's work can be seen at Schæffergården in Jægersborg to the north of Copenhagen.

Søbygaard on the island of Ærø houses an exhibition of the preparatory sketches Havsteen-Mikkelsen made for his stained glass windows while Ærø Museum has a large collection of his portrait sketches, lithographs, illustrations and postage stamp works.

# Canadian Organization for Tropical Education and Research

The **Canadian Organization for Tropical Education and Rainforest Conservation** (COTERC) is a registered not-for-profit Canadian-based charity. COTERC was founded in 1991 by Marilyn Cole and Ozzie Teichner, and is based in Pickering, Ontario, Canada. COTERC maintains a close reciprocal relationship in Costa Rica with Caño Palma Biological Station.

## Background

The Canadian Organization for Tropical Education and Rainforest Conservation was founded in 1991 to protect tropical rainforests. The board of directors comprises biologists, accountants, educators, environmentalists, zoo professionals, and media professionals operating in both Canada and Costa Rica. The organization's mission is to provide leadership in education, research, conservation, and the educated use of natural resources in the tropics.

The Canadian Organization for Tropical Education and Rainforest Conservation has worked closely with the Toronto Zoo for 20 years. In Canada, a teaching guide for rainforests based on the Ontario curriculum is available to teachers along with over 50 fact sheets on the wildlife of the Tortuguero Region of Costa Rica.

## Caño Palma Biological Station

The station was founded and continues to be supported by the Canadian Organization for Tropical Education and Research. Located inside the Barra del Colorado Wildlife Refuge, the Caño Palma Biological Station is about five miles (18 km) north of Tortuguero, Costa Rica on its north-east coast. The Biological Station is adjacent to a palm-filled canal (Spanish translation, caño palma) that separates the station from the Caribbean Sea by a mere 200–300 metres. Once an ancient floodplain, this Atlantic tropical wet forest covers the lowlands and is one of Costa Rica's richest biological ecosystems. Due to being a secondary growth forest, the region provides a home for unique plant and animal species.

Some endangered species such as the green, leatherback, hawksbill and loggerhead sea turtles nest on beaches accessible from the station. Access to Caño Palma can only be made by boat via a network of rivers and canals.

## Research

The biological station hosts researchers, university groups, interns and volunteers. They work on independent research or assist with long-term monitoring projects. The station receives interns from tertiary institutions such as York University, HAS Hogeschool and Vanier College

Ongoing monitoring projects have included conservation work on sea-turtle nesting sites, mammal monitoring, bird-breeding studies, migratory-bird studies, reptile and amphibian diversity surveys, and surveys of the freshwater fish in the Tortuguero region.

### Marine Turtle Monitoring

The marine-turtle monitoring, being the largest project at the station, looks to conserve and protect existing sea-turtle species. The program began in 2004, with tagging of the species beginning in 2006. The project also works with the Sea Turtle Conservancy and the Ministry of Environment, Energy and Sea (MINAEM) of Costa Rica to gain a wider understanding of the species. Playa Norte, the beach that the station is near, is home to four of the existing seven sea-turtle species including green, leatherback, hawksbill and loggerhead sea turtles. During nesting season (March until November), volunteers and interns survey the beach to insure safe nesting and hatching of the sea turtles.

### Bird Monitoring

The bird monitoring program started in 1991, first under the National Museum of Costa Rica and then in 1994 with the Tortuguero Integrated Bird Monitoring Program. The mist-netting program works under the guidelines of Partners in Flight to ensure the safety and conservation of the bird populations. Area searches and mist-netting are both used in weekly data collection. Another bird monitoring project, shorebird surveying, was added during 2012. Volunteers and interns survey the beach weekly to gather data on shoreline species.

### Caiman Census

Surveys of the canal are done once a week to gather information on the local caiman population. 2001-2002 station manager Paul Grant came to the station in 2006 to study the local caiman populations. Through his work, Grant found that the pesticides from surrounding locations were negatively impacting the local spectacled caiman. His work was published in National Geographic on September 30, 2013.

### Large Mammal Monitoring

This project has established baseline data on the presence of large mammals and each of the three primate species ranging in and inhabiting the Caño Palma and Tortuguero region's lowland rainforest. Three Costa Rican primate species that inhabit the area include the mantled howler, white-headed capuchin and spider monkey. Other large mammals include the jaguar, the tapir, and white-lipped peccary among many others. Using two established transects, volunteers record the presence/absence of mammal vocalizations, visuals and tracks. Project data provides an improved understanding of demographic parameters, distribution, habitat use, and foraging behaviour.

### Plant Phenology

Once a month, participants survey the local forest canopy. Data include percentages of new leaves, flowering and fruiting plants. In 2012, a Vanier College intern started an ACER (Association for Canadian Educational Resources) forest plot on the station's property. This project follows Smithsonian Institution protocols to inventory, then monitor forests, using 1-hectare plots.

## Facilities

In the past five years, facilities have been built to house over 30 students and volunteers. To reduce impact on the forest, trails have been elevated. The one-acre compound consists of a central kitchen and dining room with a surrounding library, dormitory, and washroom facilities. The site at Caño Palma has provided data for PhD and MES theses, interns work every year.

# SZD-49 Jantar K

The **SZD-49 Jantar K** was a 15m Class glider designed and built in Poland in 1977.

## Development

After the FAI Standard class rules had been created and then modified in the early 1970s the FAI decided to add a new 15m class, for gliders with a maximum span of 15m but no other restrictions other than airbrakes limiting the speed to Vne or less. Władysław Okarmus set about designing a new wing, with flaps, for use with the SZD-48-3 fuselage, the resulting offspring was named SZD-49 Jantar K. First flight of the prototype, (SP-2583, X-143), took place at Bielsko in October 1978. All was not well with the SZD-49 during the flight trials and further development was abandoned. The sole prototype was later used as a live teaching aid for advanced students and was successfully modified twice with some success by groups of students from Warsaw University of Technology.

Constructed almost entirely from glassfibre using epoxy resin, the SZD-49 had a welded steel tube centre-section truss to accept the loads from the wings, undercarriage and towing hook. A one-piece forward-opening canopy with integral glare-shield gave access to the cockpit for entry/egress and maintenance. The wings are fitted with full-span flaps with drooping ailerons as well as single-leaf airbrakes extending from top and bottom surfaces of the wing. Ailerons are driven through a patented linkage entirely enclosed inside the wing.

A standard instrument fit and an oxygen system were provided by the manufacturer.

## Plot

The bank is taking the stud from Grandpa Clayton and the family's Brookvale Farm in Saratoga. Bookie Duke Bradley, a longtime friend, stops it by buying him back. Snooty granddaughter Carol, a bombshell seeking to acquire a European patina, calls from an English estate. She announces her engagement to the wealthy Wall Street mogul Hartley Madison, a former pony player who once took Duke for $50,000. Duke takes the call, and breaks the news to her father, Frank Clayton, and Grandpa. Broke, Frank gives Duke the deed to Brookvale to pay his gambling debts. Duke meets Hartley and Carol at the races. Duke is desperate to draw Hartley back to the track. Carol is adamantly against it. Duke greets attractive old friend Fritzi with a kiss. During a race, Frank collapses and dies.

Carol asks Duke to sell her back the farm, but Duke assures her he will not foreclose on Grandpa. They quarrel about her marrying for money. Fritzi tells Duke that her new husband, cold cream magnate Jesse Kiffmeyer, is allergic to horses. To ensure she still gets the horse she wants, Dubonnet, Duke finesses Jesse's sneeze at a horse auction into the winning bid on it. Grandpa tells Duke that Carol is selling her horse, Moonray; she tells Duke she needs money to pay him off. Duke bids Hartley up to $14,000 at the auction, then drops out, thereby also guaranteeing that, as Moonray's owner, Hartley will come back to the track. Hartley asks Grandpa to train the horse.

Carol studies horses and wins money from Duke. They spend much time together at the tracks and traveling the length of the Atlantic seaboard by rail. In the process, Carol begins to thaw towards Duke. Seeking to get Harley down to Florida to bet, Duke calls on him in New York and tells him Carol needs help with her nerves. Hartley flies down with Dr. Bierd, who says Carol is "emotional". He insists she should marry soon or avoid seeing Hartley. The tempestuousness, however, is all about her affection for Duke and his fluctuating allegiances.

Laying bait to get Hartley to stick around, Duke gets him to wager and win $6,000. Carol tells Hartley not to bet with Duke, insisting he is just out to swindle him. After convincing Hartley to leave, Carol then asks him to stay. Hartley bets with Duke and loses $5,000.

On a train Duke dines with Fritzi and Jesse, who is madly jealous of Duke, believing he is carrying on with Fritzi. She knows Duke is in love with Carol, and Duke says he plans to win enough money to marry her and be able to run Brookvale farm properly. Carol tells Duke she loves him and intends to break off her engagement to Hartley. When Duke objects to losing him as a pigeon, she gets angry. At the races, Hartley loses.

The Hopeful Stakes, the biggest race of the season at Saratoga, is coming. Gambling everything, Duke accepts Hartley's $100,000 wager on Moonray to win, confident he will still triumph with top jockey Dixie Gordon on Dubonnet. Carol secretly gets Gordon to switch horses to Moonray so Duke will lose. The race is close, but Dubonnet wins by a nose. Hartley realizes Carol has fallen for Duke and steps aside.

## Cast

## Production

Although screenwriter Robert Hopkins originally intended the script to be a vehicle for Harlow, the studio at first attempted to borrow Carole Lombard from Paramount Pictures for the lead role, but could not do so because of contractual difficulties. It was reported that Joan Crawford would star but by 1937, Harlow was reported as being cast. Walter Pidgeon was borrowed from Universal for the film.

Background filming took place in Lexington and Louisville, Kentucky as well as in Saratoga Springs, New York.

Lionel Barrymore tripped over a cable on set, breaking his hip for the second time in two years and reportedly breaking his knee cap. In 1951, he said that he needed a wheelchair because of the damage to his hip.

At the time of filming, Harlow was suffering from myriad health issues and a tumultuous personal life. She was dealing with the aftermath of oral surgery to remove impacted wisdom teeth and had suffered sun poisoning in the months before filming. Unbeknownst to Harlow, she was also dying of renal failure caused by complications of scarlet fever that she contracted as a child. In 1936, she divorced her third husband, cinematographer Harold Rosson, whom she had married a year after her second husband, Paul Bern, died in 1932 by what was later ruled a suicide. During filming, Harlow was in a relationship with William Powell. While she was eager to marry Powell, he was resistant, though the two were reportedly engaged.

On May 29, 1937, Harlow collapsed on the set during a scene with Walter Pidgeon. She was taken to Good Samaritan Hospital, where, on June 7, she died of renal failure at the age of 26. Although approximately 90% of the film was finished, MGM planned to shelve the footage with Harlow and reshoot her scenes with Virginia Bruce or Jean Arthur. However, Harlow's fans were adamant that her final film be released. MGM acquiesced and shot the remaining Harlow scenes with Mary Dees. Dees was shot from behind or with costumes that obscured her face, playing Harlow's part for the camera, while Paula Winslowe supplied Harlow's voice.

## Reception

*Saratoga* was released on July 23, 1937, barely seven weeks after Harlow's death, which was one reason it became one of the year's highest-grossing films. According to MGM records the film earned $2,432,000 in the US and Canada and $820,000 elsewhere, resulting in a profit of $1,146,000.

Critical reviews were generally positive, despite the reviewers commenting on the sadness of seeing Harlow so soon after her death. Writing for *Night and Day* in 1937, Graham Greene gave the film a good review, claiming that it demonstrated "more than curiosity value". Greene noted that Harlow's acting achieved a high point in her career, and praised the film as having been "skilfully sewn-up \[in such a way that\] the missing scenes and shots lend it an air of originality which the correctly canned product mightn't have had: the story proceed\[ing\] faster, less obviously: the heroine less unduly plugged".

# Pomigliano CF

**Pomigliano Calcio Femminile**, also known as **Pomigliano**, is an Italian women's association football club based in Pomigliano d'Arco, within Metropolitan City of Naples. It was founded in June 2019 and secured two successive promotions in its first two seasons, to enter Serie A in 2021.

## History

In June 2019, Raffaele Pipola the President of ASDC Pomigliano, a club in the men's Serie D, formed a women's section for the club by buying out an existing team called Vapa Virtus Napoli. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Italy, their debut 2019–20 season was stopped early and since Pomigliano were leading their regional Serie C section they were promoted to Serie B. In 2020–21 they finished in second place behind Lazio to claim their second successive promotion, into the top tier Serie A.

Former Italy women's national football team player Manuela Tesse was the coach who secured the second promotion, but she was fired three games into the 2021–22 Serie A season. The season was concluded in eight place, securing the spot in Serie A. In 2022–23 Serie A season Pomigliano CF finished in ninth position, entering the play-off against Lazio, which finished in second position in Serie B. Pomigliano won the play-off and maintained its spot in Serie A. Despite their efforts, Pomigliano faced relegation following their 2023-24 campaign which saw them finish last in Serie A with 12 points.

# Saratoga (play)

***Saratoga; or Pistols for Seven*** is an 1870 American comedic play by Bronson Howard. It was Howard's first successful play, and the beginning of his long career as one of the foremost American playwrights of the 19th century.

## History

Howard first submitted the play to Laura Keene, who commended but declined it, and he then took it to Augustin Daly who had taken over management of the Daly's Fifth Avenue Theatre.

The play debuted on Wednesday, December 21, 1870. It ran for 101 performances (a very successful run at the time) and closed on March 27, 1871.

*The Concise Oxford Companion to American Theatre* calls *Saratoga* "one of the finest American 19th-century comedies." It was also among the first American plays to become popular abroad. A version in England adapted by Francis Albert Marshall was called *Brighton* (after the English seaside resort town), and in Germany *Seine erste und eiznige Liebe* (His First and Only Love), adapted by Paul Lindau.

*Saratoga* is considered important in the success of "American plays", arriving during an age when English and French plays were dominating playhouses. As one critic wrote in 1919, at the time of the play's debut, "the American drama--that is, plays written by Americans upon American subjects, giving faithful pictures of American life and manners--virtually did not exist."

## Adaptations and revivals

The play was performed around the United States for many years after its successful Broadway run. Daly also put it on again at his theatre. The first publication of the play in 1874 lists both the original 1870 cast and the cast of Daly's January 1874 production. The play was re-published in 1898, and newspapers reflect it still saw some productions into the first decade of the 20th century. Its strong popularity in the 1870s is evidenced by examples such as it being chosen in 1875 to be the first play performed at Cleveland's new Euclid Avenue Opera House.

In 1874, Charles Wyndham debuted in the English adaptation of the play called *Brighton*, and performed in it to great success for many years. Howard married Wyndham's sister in 1880.

In December 1978, the Royal Shakespeare Company performed the play at the Aldwych Theatre

In 1989, playwright Terrence McNally put on "Up In Saratoga", a complete rewrite based on the original and directed by Jack O'Brien, at the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego. It opened to negative reviews, and failed to make it to Broadway.

title: Eunephrops bairdii

abstract: Eunephrops bairdii is a species of marine lobster, commonly called the "red lobster", endemic to the Caribbean Sea. It is found off the coasts of Colombia and Panama at depths of 230–360 metres (750–1,180 ft). It reaches a length of up to 20 centimetres (7.9 in), which is equivalent to a carapace length of 4–9 centimetres (1.6–3.5 in), but is apparently too scarce for commercial exploitation.

# Ernest Henry Nickel

**Ernest** (Ernie) **Henry Nickel** (born **Ernst Heinrich Nickel** on 31 August 1925 in Louth, Ontario, died on 18 July 2009) was a mineralogist from Canada who emigrated to Australia. He is best known as an editor of the ninth edition of the Nickel-Strunz classification together with Karl Hugo Strunz.

## Education

Nickel received his B.Sc. in 1950 and his M.Sc. in 1951 from McMaster University in Hamilton. For his PhD he attended the University of Chicago, from which he graduated in 1953.

## Work

Following his studies he worked for the Canadian Department of Mines and Technical Surveys (CANMET). In 1971 he moved to Australia to work for the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO). He continued to work there even after retiring in 1985.

He was the president of the Mineralogical Association of Canada from 1970 to 1971. He was Australian representative on the old Commission on New Minerals and Mineral Names (CNMMN/ IMA) since 1974, and he was CNMMN vice-chairman on the side of the Canadian chairman Joseph (Joe) A. Mandarino (1983-1994). He created the 'Mineral database' together with Monte C. Nichols, and published over 120 papers and books. Together with Dorian Smith he helped oversee the IMA Subcommittee on Unnamed Minerals, which listed the unnamed minerals in the literature, and increased the list of approved mineral species from less than 3,000 to over 4,000. He made 24 first descriptions of minerals including cuprospinel, niocalite, wodginite, carrboydite, nickelblödite, otwayite, nullaginite and kambaldaite.

Nickel received numerous honors for his work. The mineral ernienickelite (chalcophanite group) is named after him.

# Brienne-le-Château

**Brienne-le-Château** (French pronunciation: \[bʁijɛn  ʃɑto\]) is a commune in the Aube department in north-central France. It is located 1 mile (2 km) from the right bank of the river Aube and 26 miles northeast of Troyes.

## History

It was the centre of the medieval County of Brienne, whose lords, first counts and eventually dukes, had a claim to the Kingdom of Jerusalem. John of Brienne ( c. 1170 – 27 March 1237), also known as John I, was King of Jerusalem from 1210 to 1225 (and Latin Emperor of Constantinople from 1229 to 1237). He was the youngest son of Erard II of Brienne, a wealthy nobleman in Champagne.

The École de Brienne was established in 1730 and remained active until it was closed in 1790. It is currently a museum. Notable students included:

In 1814, it was the site of the Battle of Brienne, when the Sixth Coalition invaded France.
