title: Nothoscordum bivalve

abstract: Nothoscordum bivalve is a species of flowering plant in the Amaryllidaceae known by the common names crowpoison and false garlic. It is native to the eastern United States from Texas to Florida up to Nebraska and Ohio, as well as Mexico, Peru, Uruguay, northeastern Argentina and central Chile. Nothoscordum bivalve is a perennial herb growing from a bulb about a centimeter wide. It produces one erect stem, or occasionally two. They grow up to 40 centimetres (16 in) tall. There are one to four narrow leaves up to 30 centimetres (12 in) long. The inflorescence is an umbel of 3 to 6 flowers, or sometimes up to 10. There are two bracts at the base of the umbel. The flower has six whitish tepals, each of which usually has a dark reddish midvein. The flower does not smell of onion. It can have a fragrant scent. The fruit is a capsule. This is a common plant which grows in parks and on roadsides, and soils which are not too dry or too wet; it grows well in lawns. It is a favorite nectar source for small butterflies such as the falcate orangetip. It has been observed to be nyctinastic, or closing at night, which contributes to its mechanical self pollination.

# Forepaugh Park

**Forepaugh Park** was a baseball ground located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, at Broad and Dauphin Streets in North Philadelphia. It had an estimated capacity of 5,000. The ground was home to the Philadelphia Quakers of the Players' League in 1890 and the American Association in 1891. The ballpark featured a bicycle track and was a popular velodrome in Philadelphia in the early 1890s. The ballpark was owned by and named for Adam Forepaugh and the grounds used for circuses and various types of exhibitions until 1894. The property was sold for development and residences constructed in 1895.

## History

In April 1886, Forepaugh and P.T. Barnum joined to present a circus at Forepaugh Park that featured 50 marching elephants, 1,000 horses, a Wild West show, and the skeleton of Jumbo the elephant who had died the previous year.

Contemporary maps locate the ballpark on the block bounded by North Broad Street (west, third base); Dauphin Street (south, first base); North 13th Street (east, right field); and York Street (north, left field); and with the north-south streets Pembroke (now Watts) Street and Park Avenue penciled in to cut through the ballpark, which they were in 1894 after the block was sold to developers. This placed the ballpark just two blocks, corner-to-corner, from the National League Park.

The ballpark was accessible by six streetcar lines and two blocks from the Reading Railroad's Huntington Street Station. The Players League Athletics signed a lease in December 1889 to pay $5,000 rent for the 1890 season.

Prior to the 1890 season, a new grandstand pavilion was erected for the 1890 Players League season and painted in bright colors. During the summer, a new cinder bicycle track was laid down which attracted amateur competitions.

During the 1890 season, the ballpark was concurrently dubbed "Brotherhood Park", a common practice for the ballfields used by the Players' League clubs. The largest crowd was 17,812 on April 30, 1890 when the Athletics hosted the Boston Reds.

Philadelphia's Players League club at Forepaugh Park outdrew the American Association Philadelphia Athletics at the Jefferson Street Grounds in 1890. The American Association Athletics had lost their best players to the Players League club which led to the club's financial ruin and expulsion from the American Association after the 1890 season. With the concurrent folding of the Players League, the American Association granted the Philadelphia franchise to Players League Athletics owner J. Earl Wagner. The Athletics played their 1891 home games at Forepaugh Park.

Adam Forepaugh had passed away in January 1890. The filing of the account of his assets in Orphans Court in April 1891 appraised the value of Forepaugh Park at $400,000.

On August 1, 1891, Forepaugh Park and its bicycle track hosted the Philadelphia Cycle Dealers' Road Race and Race Meeting which included twelve individual events.

In October 1891, Barnum and Bailey erected their tents at the ballpark grounds. Their tents had seating for 16,000 and they presented the show, "Rome Under Nero."

Forepark Park often featured soccer. The All Philadelphias faced the Cosmopolitans of New York on March 24, 1894 for the inter city championship. 2,000 fans saw the All Philadelphia win 4 to 0 including Phillies ownership and manager Arthur Irwin who would organize the American League of Professional Football later that year.

Philadelphia's Ancient Order of Hibernians held its community games at Forepaugh Park on Memorial Day 1894.

In the summer of 1894, the outdoor spectacle, "The Destruction of Herculaneum" was presented on a specially constructed stage with a grand ballet troupe, artificial lake, and pyrotechnics.

title: Tancy Lee

abstract: James "Tancy" Lee was a Scottish professional boxer who competed from 1906 to 1926. He held the IBU world, EBU European and the National Sporting Club’s British flyweight titles in 1915, becoming the first Scot to hold a British title.

# Tancy Lee

**James "Tancy" Lee** (31 January 1882 – 5 February 1941) was a Scottish professional boxer who competed from 1906 to 1926. He held the IBU world, EBU European and the National Sporting Club’s British flyweight titles in 1915, becoming the first Scot to hold a British title.

## Career

### Early career

Born in Leith in 1882, Lee had his first fights as an amateur in 1906. In 1910 he won the ABA bantamweight championship, but was stripped of the title after it was discovered that he had infringed the amateur boxing laws. Undefeated as a professional by 1911 he suffered his first loss when he was stopped in the thirteenth round by Alex Lafferty in a contest for the Scottish bantamweight title. He won the Scottish flyweight title three years later when he beat Dan McGrady (who later changed his name to MacGrady).

### British, European, and World title fights

After beating Tommy Harrison in an eliminator he was to face Percy Jones in October 1914 for the latter's British and World flyweight titles but Jones failed to make the weight; The fight went ahead as a non-title catch-weight fight with Lee stopping Jones in the 14th round.

In January 1915 he faced Jimmy Wilde, at the time unbeaten in over 90 fights (according to some sources 103), for the vacant British, European, and IBU World titles at the National Sporting Club, stopping him in the 17th round to become triple champion. He lost the British and World titles nine months later to Joe "Young" Symonds.

In February 1916 he beat Johnny Best to take the Scottish bantamweight title, and four months later faced Wilde for the British, European, and World flyweight titles, Wilde stopping him in the 11th round.

In December 1916 he successfully defended his Scottish bantamweight title against Lafferty and then moved up to featherweight. In November 1917 he knocked Charlie Hardcastle in the fourth round to become British featherweight champion. Although he lost his next three fights he successfully defended his British title in October 1918 against Joe Conn, and again in February 1919 against Danny Morgan to win the Lonsdale Belt outright.

In December 1919 he challenged Louis de Ponthieu for the vacant European featherweight title at the Cirque de Paris, but was stopped in the 17th round. Having relinquished the British title he fought for it again in October 1920, but retired in the 19th round against defending champion Mike Honeyman. After losing to Auguste Grassi in March 1921 he retired from boxing, although he fought in a three-round exhibition bout in 1922, and made a comeback in 1926, at the age of 44, when he drew with Johnny Seeley.

### Retirement and death

After retiring from the ring Lee became a bookmaker, and also a boxing trainer and manager, having co-founded the Leith Victoria Club in 1919, and training fighters such as Johnny Hill, Alex Ireland, Jim Rolland, and Lee's nephews George McKenzie and James McKenzie, both Olympic medallists, George also winning the British featherweight title.

In April 1930 a testimonial tournament was held in his honour in Waverley Market, Edinburgh. As the first outright winner of the Lonsdale Belt to reach the age of 50, he became in 1932 the first to receive a £1 per week pension from the National Sporting Club.

Tancy Lee died on 5 February 1941, aged 59, after being hit by a bus in Duncan Place, and was buried at Seafield Cemetery in Edinburgh. He was survived by his widow Harriett (née Mears) and three daughters. His wife sued the Edinburgh Corporation, owners of the bus, but the action was unsuccessful.

Lee was inducted into the Scottish Boxing Hall of Fame in September 2008, in a ceremony attended by his 94-year-old daughter.

abstract: Mary Kay Vyskocil is a United States district judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and a former United States bankruptcy judge for the same court. President Donald Trump nominated her to the district bench in 2018 and again in 2019, and she was confirmed in 2019.

# Mary Kay Vyskocil

**Mary Kay Vyskocil** (born March 22, 1958) is a United States district judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and a former United States bankruptcy judge for the same court. President Donald Trump nominated her to the district bench in 2018 and again in 2019, and she was confirmed in 2019.

## Education

Vyskocil earned her undergraduate degree from the Dominican College in Rockland County, New York, where she was the class valedictorian and student government president, and her Juris Doctor from St. John's University School of Law, where she served on the Moot Court Executive Board.

Prior to her appointment to the bench, she practiced general commercial litigation for almost thirty-three years at the New York City-based law firm of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett.

## Federal judicial service

### Bankruptcy court service

Vyskocil was selected to become a judge of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York in 2016. She was sworn in as a United States bankruptcy judge on April 7, 2016, and served until her elevation as a district court judge.

### District court service

In August 2017, Vyskocil was one of several candidates pitched to New York senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand by the White House as judicial candidates for vacancies on the federal courts in New York. On May 10, 2018, President Donald Trump announced his intent to nominate Vyskocil to serve as a United States district judge for the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. On May 15, 2018, her nomination was sent to the Senate. She was nominated to the seat that was vacated by Judge Loretta A. Preska, who assumed senior status on March 1, 2017. On August 1, 2018, a hearing on her nomination was held before the Senate Judiciary Committee. On September 13, 2018, her nomination was reported out of committee by a 21–0 vote.

On January 3, 2019, her nomination was returned to the President under Rule XXXI, Paragraph 6 of the United States Senate. On April 8, 2019, President Trump announced the renomination of Vyskocil to the district court. On May 21, 2019, her nomination was sent to the Senate. On June 20, 2019, her nomination was reported out of committee by a 21–1 vote. On December 18, 2019, the United States Senate invoked cloture on her nomination by a 89–4 vote. On December 19, 2019, her nomination was confirmed by a 91–3 vote. She received her judicial commission on December 20, 2019.

### Notable rulings

On December 5, 2019, Karen McDougal, an American model and one-time Playboy magazine Playmate who had an affair with Trump in 2006 to 2007, filed a defamation lawsuit against the television network Fox News. According to the suit, network anchor Tucker Carlson defamed McDougal by saying that she had personally extorted Trump for the hush money she received in 2016, a claim she denied. On September 24, 2020, Vyskocil dismissed the defamation lawsuit, writing that, "The statements are rhetorical hyperbole and opinion commentary intended to frame a political debate, and, as such, are not actionable as defamation". The judge added that the "'general tenor' of the show should then inform a viewer that \[Carlson\] is not 'stating actual facts' about the topics he discusses and is instead engaging in 'exaggeration' and 'non-literal commentary.'"

In a lawsuit filed on Tuesday April 11, 2023, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg sued House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan and the committee to block a subpoena compelling former New York prosecutor Mark F. Pomerantz to testify to the House committee. The suit alleges that former President Donald J. Trump, Jordan, and other members of the House committee are engaged in "a campaign of intimidation, retaliation, and obstruction" related to the ongoing case involving "hush money" paid by Trump to Stormy Daniels.

The case came before Vyskocil on April 11. On the same day, she denied Bragg's request for emergency relief and set a hearing for April 19, 2023. Jordan revealed that a "field hearing", in which witnesses would be called, was to be held prior to this, on April 17 at the Jacob K. Javits Federal Building, close to Bragg's office in Manhattan. At the April 19 district court hearing, Vyskocil ruled that she had no legal standing to block the subpoena and denied Bragg a requested stay of proceedings pending appeal. The same day, following an emergency motion by Bragg, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit granted an administrative stay "so that a three-judge panel may consider the motion seeking a stay pending appeal of the district court’s order." On April 21, Bragg dropped his appeal after reaching an agreement with Jordan that allowed the subpoena against Pomerantz, while protecting the District Attorney's privileges and interests. Pomerantz will be deposed on May 12.

## Memberships

She was a member of the Federalist Society from 1998 to 2005.

## Awards and recognition

Vyskocil has been ranked as one of the "Top Ten Women Litigators in the United States" by Benchmark Litigation. In 2016, she received a "Top Women in Law Award" from the *New York Law Journal*. She has been recognized as a litigation leader by Chambers, Legal 500, Who's Who Legal and America's Leading Business Lawyers, and Law360.

# Mary Kay Lobo

**Mary Kay Lobo** (born 1975) is an American psychiatric neuroscientist who is a Professor of Neurobiology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. Her research considers the molecular mechanisms that underpin drug addiction and depression. She was named a finalist in the 2011 Blavatnik Awards for Young Scientists.

## Early life and education

Lobo was born and raised in Los Angeles. She studied biology and anthropology at the University of California, Los Angeles. She stayed in California for her doctoral research, where she completed genetic analysis of neuron subtypes. To achieve this, she had to develop a novel methodology for isolating the main striatal projection neuron subtypes (medium spiny neurons). These two neuron play opposite but complementary roles in neural circuitry. She worked in the laboratory of X. William Yang in the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA. Lobo was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center where she worked in the laboratory of Eric J. Nestler.

## Research and career

In 2011 Lobo was appointed to the faculty at the University of Maryland School of Medicine. She has continued to make use of genetic analysis to understand how neuronal circuits are involved with drug addiction and depression. In such scenarios, the circuits become dysfunctional, influencing downstream brain region. By combining genetic analysis with optogenetic, Lobo has identified divergent roles in nucleus accumbens projection neurons in the brain's reward centre. She showed that the molecular regulator of mitochondrial fission is amplified in the brain reward regions of individuals dependent on cocaine, and that blocking this fission process can reduce cocaine-seeking behaviour.

Lobo investigated effective medications and molecular targets for major depressive disorders. To achieve this, she uses mouse models of depression. She showed that chronic stress decreases the number of dendrites and size of nerve cells in mice, which limits the number of connections with nearby nerve cells. She proposed that the small transforming protein RhoA, which is involved the maintenance of dendrite shape and size, and its molecular target rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK), offer hope for the restoration of brain function in people with major depressive disorders. The use of RhoA inhibitors can result in antidepressant like responses to stress.

## Academic service

Lobo was made associate editor of *The Journal of Neuroscience* in 2014. She serves on the editorial board of *ACS Chemical Neuroscience* and *Biological Psychiatry*.

title: No Words

abstract: "No Words" is a song written by Paul McCartney and Denny Laine, and first released on 7 December 1973 on Band on the Run by Paul McCartney and Wings. The song was Laine's first co-writing on a Wings album and his only writing credit on Band on the Run.

# No Words

"**No Words**" is a song written by Paul McCartney and Denny Laine, and first released on 7 December 1973 on *Band on the Run* by Paul McCartney and Wings. The song was Laine's first co-writing on a Wings album and his only writing credit on *Band on the Run*.

## Background

The song was written before the release of Wings' second album, *Red Rose Speedway*, but not recorded until the *Band on the Run* sessions.

## Recording

The basic track was recorded in Lagos, Nigeria and was later completed in September in England. The orchestral arrangements, consisting of brass instruments and string quartets were made by Tony Visconti. Ian Horne and Trevor Jones, two of Wings' roadies, sang backing vocals on the track although their parts are buried in the mix. Otherwise, the vocals consist primarily of Laine and Paul and Linda McCartney all singing together, with Laine and Paul McCartney each taking a solo spot. The original recording is over four minutes, but was faded early for LP release.

The song's verses are in the key of A major. The key moves to the dominant, E major, for the refrain. The lyrics express the singer's desire for a woman who he fears may not be only interested in him. The refrain consists of the single line "No words for my love." Music author Vincent Benitez interprets the song's ending on a dominant key rather than the tonic as reflecting the singer's uncertain situation. Robert Rodriguez described "No Words" as being the only song on *Band on the Run* that came close to being the type of "silly love song" that predominated McCartney's albums of the time.

## Live performances

The only time the song was performed live by Wings was in 1979 during their final tour.

## Personnel

* Paul McCartney – vocals, electric guitar, bass guitar, drums, acoustic and electric pianos
* Linda McCartney – vocals, keyboards
* Denny Laine – vocals, electric guitar
* Ian Horne – backing vocals
* Trevor Jones – backing vocals

# Humanitarian response to Cyclone Freddy

Many countries allocated relief aid items to southern Africa after Cyclone Freddy, with a main focus on the humanitarian crisis in Malawi. Items included hygiene supplies, food rations, and safe drinking water among other things Total donations reach the millions in USD, and there was also a primary focal point on the historic and ongoing outbreak of Cholera in the region. Several nations also expressed condolences to Malawi, Mozambique, and Madagascar. The widespread and prolonged impacts prompted extensive relief efforts from the affected nations and multiple intergovernmental agencies. UNICEF and the WFP provided relief items for those affected, as well as temporary shelters.

## Africa

Zambia provided several relief items and 100 metric tons of maize for relief aid. Despite also bearing the brunt of Freddy, Mozambique provided an aircraft for emergency aid to Malawi. Tanzania sent a shipment of 1,000 metric tons of flour, 6,000 blankets, 50 tents, and two helicopters for rescue operations to Malawi. Two rescue planes were also sent to Mozambique. Tanzania sent cash and goods worth $1 million (K1 billion). South Africa provided an aircraft for search-and-rescue in Malawi.

Elias Mpedi Magosi, executive secretary of Southern African Development Community, announced that $300,000 was approved for humanitarian aid to Malawi. The Diocese of Southern Malawi-Upper Shire contributed K5 million in food and non-food goods to survivors of Tropical Cyclone Freddy. The African Development Bank and the African Risk Capacity agreed to release US$1.5 million towards recovery. The funds will be distributed to the Malagasy government and the World Food Programme, which will help with the relocation of impacted people.

## Americas

The United States announced it would provide material for emergency shelter through the Catholic Relief Services. The government of the United States, through the United States Agency for International Development, provided three humanitarian assistance grants totaling $5,750,000 to the WFP, the International Organization for Migration, and the UNICEF to provide immediate assistance to Cyclone Freddy victims in Mozambique. The US contributes $4 million to aid in the recovery from Cyclone Freddy and cholera prevention. Canada announces $8 million in humanitarian aid.

## Eurasia

The Government of Japan allocated plastic sheets, tents, water purifiers, and portable jerry cans to Malawi through the Japan International Cooperation Agency. The Red Cross Society of China sent $100,000 and $50,000 to Malawi and Mozambique respectively. A hospital also donated a laparoscopy training and assessment system to Maputo. South Korea provided $200,000 in humanitarian assistance to Malawi. The Government of India has provided humanitarian assistance to the Government of Malawi in the aftermath of the devastation caused by Cyclone Freddy.

The French government has donated €500,000 (US$544,381) to the WFP to assist innovative home-grown school feeding programs in the worst-affected areas in southern Malawi's cyclone-affected districts, Chikwawa and Nsanje. Norway donated kr60,000,000 ($5,792,610) evenly between Madagascar, Mozambique, and Malawi. They also announced an additional 60 million krone for food insecurities. Ireland Minister of State at the Department of Foreign Affairs, Seán Fleming said that Ireland will provide €400,000 to those affected by Cyclone Freddy.

The United Kingdom provided a search-and-rescue team of 27 people (and 6 from an EMT group) on 17 March to Malawi. They also provided emergency shelter to 3,600 citizens, and safe drinking water to 12,750 as well. They also gave the country specialist boats. The First Minister of Scotland, Nicola Sturgeon, has pledged Malawi £400,000 in funding to help with emergency assistance efforts following Cyclone Freddy.

## Multinational organizations

The United Nations and humanitarian partners in Malawi are requesting $70.6 million to assist nearly 1.1 million people affected by the cyclone. The UN Humanitarian Coordinator for the nation, Martin Griffiths, released $10 million on 16 March to support cholera and emergency response aid. €200,000 ($213,810) was provided by the European Union to help support victims of the system.

The EU later allocated an additional €1.3 million to Mozambique, €700,000 to Malawi, and €500,000 to Madagascar. They also released $5.5 million to Malawi from the Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) on 19 March. The World Bank has approved a $145 million loan to Blantyre City to improve water and sanitation. The Christian Blind Mission donated €100,000 ($107,245) to help emergency relief.

The International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies also donated 6 million swiss francs ($6,505,680) to help bring aid to 100,00 people across 5 districts in Malawi. The WFP has been providing logistical assistance to the humanitarian community in Malawi. It sent 1,783 mt of food and relief supplies to flood-affected areas through land, rivers, and air. It also concluded that it would need over $27 million for three months to provide aid to 500,000 citizens.

## Condolences

Condolences to Malawi, Mozambique, and Madagascar were expressed by most countries that provided aid, as well as Brazil, China, Cuba, India, Japan, South Africa, Mozambique, Tanzania, United States, and United Kingdom. The United Nations experts express their sympathy with the people of Malawi. Pope Francis expressed his solidarity and condolences to the victims.

# Hour Glass (TV series)

***Hour Glass*** is the first regularly scheduled variety show shown on American network television. The *Encyclopedia of Television* noted that the program "is historically important because it exemplified the issues faced by networks, sponsors, and advertising agencies in television's formative years."

## Distribution

*Hour Glass* was broadcast only on WNBT (now WNBC) in New York City from May 9, 1946, through November of that year, when distribution to NBC affiliates in Philadelphia and Schenectady began. From that time, the three-city network continued until March 1947.

## Overview

Described as "the first \[television\] hour-long musical variety show", *Hour Glass* was sponsored by Standard Brands, promoting Chase and Sanborn coffee and Tenderleaf Tea. The program included comedians, musicians, entertaining films (such as a film of dance in South America), and a long, live commercial for the sponsor's products.

Such famous names as Doodles Weaver, Bert Lahr, Dennis Day, Anton Reiter, Jerry Colonna, Peggy Lee and Joe Besser appeared on the program. The first show was hosted by Evelyn Eaton (daughter of one of The Seven Little Eatons); *Life* surmised that NBC was adapting to a paradigm shift and making better use of the visual medium by hiring an attractive woman as master of ceremonies, as opposed to the more authoritative voices of men who typically commanded radio variety shows of the era.

On November 14, 1946, Edgar Bergen brought his ventriloquism act to the show. It was one of the first times that a major radio performer had appeared on television. Coincidentally, Standard Brands (via Chase and Sanborn) was the sponsor of Bergen's radio program.

## Duration

*The Columbia History of American Television* attributed the program's short life to its cost and the lack of market penetration for television at the time, saying, "Standard Brands invested $200,000 in this series over its ten-month tenure at a time when that level of investment just couldn't be supported and sustained, leading to the *Hour Glass'*s abbreviated run." Another factor was that James Petrillo, president of the American Federation of Musicians forbade musicians from performing on television without an agreement between the AFM and the networks, thus limiting directors and performers to use of recorded music and lip sync. A report in *Life* at the show's start noted that the show's audience at the time was estimated at 3,500 television sets watched by up to 20,000 viewers, a thousandth of the estimated 20,000,000 radio listeners nationwide that were hearing *The Chase and Sanborn Hour* in a given week.

## Personnel

The show was co-hosted by Eddie Mayehoff and Helen Parrish. Bergen later became the host of the program. Edward Sobol was the producer. During the series' time on the air, a system of alternating writers was developed, giving "an individual writer two weeks in which to write a show instead of the weekly deadline."

## Critical reception

A contemporary review in *Life* praised the individual performances but panned the production values, noting that camera operators cut off the feet of dancers and that the show lacked the kind of "camera virtuosity monopolized by Hollywood." On the whole, the *Life* review noted that television would need "good scripts and better directors" if it were to succeed.

## Existing recordings

Audio-only recordings of *Hour Glass* from 1946–1947, including the inaugural show, are known to exist at the Library of Congress, making the show one of the few shows to have any surviving material from before 1948 still in existence. Photos of the first live *Hour Glass* broadcast taken from a TV monitor during the live telecast, along with a program review, appear in the May 27, 1946 issue of *Life*.

# Nontsikelelo Mutiti

**Nontsikelelo Mutiti** (born 31 August 1982) is a graphic designer, artist and educator. Her work focuses on web design, video, print, and book art. She often includes hair braiding in her design work, and is "interested in the nuanced differences between black cultures". Her work includes printed materials for Black Lives Matter. Since 2022, Mutiti has served as the Director of Graduate Studies in Graphic Design at the Yale School of Art.

## Early life and education

Mutiti was born in 1982 in Harare, Zimbabwe. She graduated from the Zimbabwe Institute of Vigital Arts with a diploma in multimedia art in 2007. Mutiti earned an MFA from the Yale School of Art in 2012.

## Collaborations and publishing

Mutiti is a co-founder of the Zimbabwe Cultural Centre in Detroit, which encourages collaboration between artists in Detroit and Zimbabwe.

With Tinashe Mushakavanhu, Mutiti co-founded Black Chalk & Co, a creative agency and publishing imprint. Mushakavanhu and Mutiti also lead Reading Zimbabwe, a digital archive of Zimbabwean literature. Mutiti has served as artistic director and cofounder since Reading Zimbabwe was established in late 2016.

## Teaching

In June 2022, Mutiti was appointed to Yale University's faculty as the Director of Graduate Studies in Graphic Design. Mutiti became the third director of Yale's graduate graphic design program, following Professor Sheila Levrant de Bretteville’s historic thirty-two year tenure. Mutiti previously served an assistant professor at Virginia Commonwealth University in the Graphic Design department, where she taught between 2017 and 2022. Prior to VCU, Mutiti taught at Purchase College. She lives and works in New York City and Richmond, Virginia.

## Work

Mutiti is best known for her artistic investigation of the technical crafts and social practices of hair braiding and self-fashioning in the African diaspora. For example, in a 2014 exhibition at Recess Art, Mutiti drew for inspiration from the space of an African hair braiding salon, as it might be found in New York City or Harare. Mutiti recreated aesthetic markers such as "walls painted in acid green or bright orange, magazine cut outs of celebrities, hair product models, flyers and posters from evangelical churches... \[and\] the ubiquitous small black television set on top of a cabinet playing Nollywood movies." Mutiti's interests extend from the aesthetics of hair salons to the forms of community and exchange that take place in them. In 2015, as part of Performa, she worked together with Chimurenga and Pan African Space Station to create a functional pop-up salon which hosted a series of conversations*.*

# Hungnam

**Hŭngnam** (Korean: 흥남) is a district of Hamhung, the second largest city in North Korea. It is a port city on the eastern coast on the Sea of Japan. It is only 13 kilometres (8 mi) from the slightly inland city of Hamhung. In 2005 it became a ward of Hamhung.

## History

The port at Hŭngnam was the site of the Hŭngnam evacuation, a major evacuation of both United Nations military and North Korean civilians during the Korean War in late December 1950. Approximately 100,000 troops and material and 100,000 civilians were loaded onto a variety of merchant ships and military transports totaling 193 shiploads over the weeks leading up to Christmas 1950, and were transported to safety in Pusan and other destinations in South Korea. The evacuation included 14,000 refugees who were transported on one ship, the SS *Meredith Victory* \- the largest evacuation from land by a single ship. This was made possible by a declaration of national emergency by President Truman issued on 16 December 1950 with Presidential Proclamation No. 2914, 3 C.F.R. 99 (1953). This operation was the culmination of the Battle of Chosin Reservoir, in which the embattled UN troops fought their way out of a Chinese trap.

In late 2005, Hŭngnam was demoted from Hŭngnam-si (Hŭngnam City) to Hŭngnam-kuyok (Hŭngnam District) within Hamhung-si.

## Population

The population has been estimated at (variously) 200,000 or 450,000; the official North Korean population figure is 700,000 but this is disputed.

## Economy

The city is home to the Hungnam Fertilizer Complex, which has allegedly also been used to manufacture chemical weapons. Other industrial facilities include the February 8 Vinylon Factory Complex which allegedly is producing UDMH fuel used for liquid fueled rocket and missiles. It is also home to Hungnam Chemical Engineering College.

## Transport

Hungnam Station is on the Pyongra Line railway.

## Administrative divisions

Hŭngnam is divided into 43 *tong* (neighbourhoods), 1 *rodongjagu* (workers' district) and 5 *ri* (villages):

# Mary Bidwell Breed

**Mary Bidwell Breed** (September 15, 1870  September 15, 1949) was an American chemist. In 1901 she became the first female dean of Indiana University and her chemistry work with aromatic acids.

## Biography

Mary Bidwell Breed was born on September 15, 1870, in Pittsburgh. She was educated at Bryn Mawr College, where she received three degrees and her PhD in 1901, and participated in the Bryn Mawr European Fellowship at Heidelberg University in 1895. She wrote The Polybasic Acids of Mesitylene, published in 1901, which discussed her chemistry work with aromatic acids, mainly derivatives of benzene.

Before finishing her doctorate, Breed was head of the science department at Pennsylvania College for Women. Her research focus was on aromatic acids and the atomic weight of palladium. Breed was the dean of women at Indiana University from 1901 to 1906, making her the first female dean at Indiana University. She used her position to denounce the segregation of men and women into certain academic fields. Breed was also a member of the teaching faculty of Indiana University as an assistant professor of chemistry. During Breed's term at Indiana University, the status of the position of dean of women began to decline. Many universities and colleges across the country reported that the women in these positions were not as accepted among the mostly male dominated faculty. Her work is not well documented after 1906; however, it is known that she was on faculty at the University of Missouri from 1906 to 1912, and served as director of the Margaret Morrison College of the Carnegie Institute of Technology, Pittsburgh from 1913 until at least 1926.

## Death

Breed died on her 79th birthday in 1949 in Newton, New Jersey. She is buried at Homewood Cemetery in Pittsburgh.

# Mary Jane Guthrie

**Mary Jane Guthrie** (December 13, 1895 – February 22, 1975) was an American zoologist and cytologist known for her studies of cytoplasm in reproductive and endocrine cells.

## Early life and education

Guthrie was born in New Bloomfield, Missouri. She graduated from the University of Missouri with a bachelor's degree in 1916 and a master's degree in 1918, then earned her Ph.D. in zoology at Bryn Mawr College in 1922. While working towards her Ph.D., Guthrie served as a zoology instructor and demonstrator.

## Career and research

Returning to Missouri after earning her Ph.D., Guthrie spent the majority of her career at her alma mater, becoming an assistant professor in 1922, associate professor in 1927, and full professor in 1937. Guthrie was known for her writing about zoology; she wrote several textbooks on the subject that were widely used. Guthrie left the University of Missouri for Wayne State University in Detroit in 1950, and stayed there until her 1960 retirement; in 1951 she was given a concurrent appointment at the Detroit Institute for Cancer Research. She cultured ovarian tissue in vitro, a significant achievement at the time, and used her cultures to study ovarian cancer.

Despite her success, Guthrie was denied funding because of her gender, including one instance where she was not funded by the Rockefeller Foundation.

# Horst Wende

**Horst Wende** (5 November 1919 – 23 January 1996) was a German bandleader, arranger and composer. He made easy-listening records under his own name as well as under the name **Roberto Delgado**. He was part of the wave of German-based easy-listening artists who were popular in the 1960s and 1970s, along with Bert Kaempfert and James Last.

## Biography

Born in Zeitz, Saxony, he showed musical proficiency at an early age. He played in his grandfather's band in a restaurant when he was six, and by his teens he was accomplished at playing piano, accordion, xylophone and marimba. He studied music at the Leipzig Conservatory.

He served in the German Army during World War II, but was captured by the British. During his captivity in a Danish prisoner-of-war camp, he met a guitarist named Ladi Geisler, with whom he soon formed a small combo. After the war, he led various combos (which usually included Geisler) in the Salambo Night Club from René Durand & The Tarantella Night Club near the famous Reeperbahn. Horst also played with British Service musicians and big bands such as Edmundo Ros. Settling in Hamburg, he became part of the burgeoning music scene in the port city. Signed to the Polydor label in the 1950s, as a composer, producer and musician he made accordion and dance band music under his own name. He also started with Middle & South America music recordings under the alias of Roberto Delgado, and with piano albums as Mister Pepper. The Delgado albums became popular in Europe, and then found an audience in the UK, Japan and North America and Australia as Polydor opened up several international subsidiaries. It is interesting to note that Wende recorded his albums using the same group of studio musicians who recorded for Kaempfert and Last; in fact, guitarist Ladi Geisler also provided the distinct knack-bass guitar to the Kaempfert sound.

The Delgado recordings were initially Latin-oriented, but they eventually covered a number of different musical genres including African, Italian, Jewish, Oriental, Russian, Greek and Jamaican music as well as Broadway musicals and current pop hits. It could be argued that Wende/Delgado helped to pioneer world music. He managed to break into the German singles market with his version of "Mexico" in 1962. He also arranged music for other German artists such as German folk/pop singer Knut Kiesewetter. Horst made several albums with great international singers including Conny Froboess, Wencke Myhre, Katja Ebstein, Daliah Lavi and Freddy Quinn.

Like most of his pop orchestral contemporaries, Wende's popularity had faded by the 1980s, and he gradually retired from playing music professionally. In recent years, his music has become popular again, and some of his recordings have been reissued on CD. His work is still much loved and remembered by the many who heard his work. His song "Skokiaan", from the 1958 album *Africana*, is used at the end of Richard Linklater's film *Slacker* (1990).

title: Moses Kunitz

abstract: Moses Kunitz was a Russian-American biochemist who spent most of his career at Rockefeller University. He is best known for a series of experiments in purification and crystallization of proteins, contributing to the determination that enzymes are proteins.

# Moses Kunitz

**Moses Kunitz** (December 19, 1887 – April 20, 1978) was a Russian-American biochemist who spent most of his career at Rockefeller University. He is best known for a series of experiments in purification and crystallization of proteins, contributing to the determination that enzymes are proteins.

## Early life and education

Kunitz was born in Slonim (then part of Russia, now in Belarus) on December 19, 1887. He was raised and educated there until his move to the United States, where he settled in New York City in 1909 and became an American citizen in 1915. Kunitz graduated from Cooper Union with a degree in chemistry in 1916 and then enrolled there for graduate school in electrical engineering. After three years in the program, he moved to Columbia University, from which he received a Ph.D. in biological chemistry in 1924. Kunitz began work as a technical assistant in Jacques Loeb's laboratory at Rockefeller University in 1913 and continued there throughout his graduate years. Loeb arranged for Kunitz to receive a staff appointment at Rockefeller after graduation.

## Academic career

Kunitz' position at Rockefeller was originally secured by Jacques Loeb. After Loeb died in 1924, John H. Northrop succeeded him and retained Kunitz' position; the two would collaborate extensively on experiments involving protein crystallization for much of their remaining careers. Both Northrop and Kunitz moved to Rockefeller's Princeton, New Jersey campus in 1926; Kunitz returned to New York City in 1952. He then assumed professor emeritus status but continued to work regularly in the laboratory until eventually retiring in 1970.

Kunitz was awarded the Carl Neuberg Medal in 1957 in recognition of his long research career and noted technical skill in the laboratory, which was critical to his long series of successes in protein crystallization. He was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1967.

## Research

Kunitz is best known for his efforts in protein crystallization, successfully crystallizing a number of enzymes and enzyme precursor proteins, particularly proteases. Kunitz worked with trypsin and chymotrypsin and their precursors, as well as pepsin. He also studied protease inhibitors and devoted particular effort to the soybean trypsin inhibitor; the inhibitor protein, its domain family, and a soybean cultivar lacking this protein are all named after him. For their role in isolating, purifying, and crystallizing enzymes - a subject underscored by Kunitz' work with Northrop - John H. Northrop, Wendell M. Stanley, and James B. Sumner were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1946. Kunitz himself was nominated three times for a share of a Nobel for this work.

In addition to his work on crystallization of proteases, Kunitz also performed careful work in enzymology, characterizing the kinetics and thermodynamics of protease reactions. He worked on other proteins as well, in particular ribonucleases, which were popular model systems for their small size and ease of crystallization. During World War II he worked on government-assigned crystallization projects and was noted for the facility with which he crystallized hexokinase. Kunitz was widely recognized specifically for his craftsmanship and technical skill in the laboratory.

# Steel Reign

***Steel Reign*** is a video game released in 1997-1998. It was developed by Chantemar Creations and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for PlayStation.

## Reception

*Steel Reign* received mixed to negative reviews. *Electronic Gaming Monthly*'s Steve Harris liked the game, opining that it offers a good balance of realism and arcade fun which is enhanced by the selection of vehicles and weapons, but his three co-reviewers all said that it looks and plays like a generic first generation PlayStation game, with mostly non-interactive environments, rough and pixelation textures, and lack of color. One of them, Ken "Sushi-X" Williams, also argued that the selection of vehicles is meaningless since one tank is obviously superior to the others, and even with the weakest tank the game is boringly easy. Like *EGM*, *Next Generation* found the game's simplistic action dull and comparable to first generation PlayStation games, concluding that "Had *Steel Reign* been released at the same time as *Warhawk*, it may have seemed more impressive. As it is, it's just another action title with lots of guns and explosions." Glenn Rubenstein, writing for *GameSpot*, instead contended that the game has a frustrating level of challenge, and praised its full motion video sequences, selection of weapons, multiplayer mode, and soundtrack, assessing that "it definitely ranks in the top 10 percent of what is currently out there." *GamePro* found the maze-like level designs in *Steel Reign* irritatingly restrictive, and while agreeing that the multiplayer mode is fun, felt that it was soured by the fact that matches are so short, they are nearly outlasted by their load times. They summarized that "Every time a bright side to this game pops up, it's pummeled by four problems. This one's a rental at best." *IGN* gave the game an above-average review, a few weeks before its U.S. release date.

*The Electric Playground*'s Tommy Tallarico gave the game a 6/10, while co-host Victor Lucas gave it a 4/10.

# Northwest Arm

The **Northwest Arm**, originally named Sandwich River, is an inlet in eastern Canada off the Atlantic Ocean in Nova Scotia's Halifax Regional Municipality.

## Geography

Part of Halifax Harbour, it measures approximately 3.5 km in length and 0.5 km in width and defines the western side of the Halifax Peninsula. The waterway is oriented along a bearing of 135° (southeast) and 315° (northwest).

The Northwest Arm contains several small islands including Melville Island, home of the Armdale Yacht Club, and Deadman's Island, at the northwestern end near Armdale. There is a large breakwater, constructed from slate bedrock, located adjacent to South Street called the Fyfe Breakwater after the late local naturalist TLC Ratt-Fyfe.

There is a public beach (the only one on the Arm) located at Sir Sanford Fleming Park which has only recently been deemed safe for swimming since the Harbor Solutions Project began operations in 2008.

## History

The Mi'kmaq Nation called this water body "Waygwalteech" which translates to "salt water all the way up." Early English settlers called it the "Sandwich River" and also the "Hawkes River."

The Mi'kmaq people attacked the British blockhouse on the Northwest Arm numerous times during Father Le Loutre's War. In 1751, there were two attacks on blockhouses surrounding Halifax. Mi'kmaq attacked the North Blockhouse (located at the north end of Joseph Howe Drive) and killed the men on guard. They also attacked near the South Blockhouse (located at the south end of Joseph Howe Drive), at a sawmill on a stream flowing out of Chocolate Lake into the Northwest Arm. They killed two men. (Map of Halifax Blockhouses)

In 1753, when Lawrence became governor, the Mi'kmaq attacked again upon the sawmills near the South Blockhouse on the Northwest Arm, where they killed three British. The Mi'kmaq made three attempts to retrieve the bodies for their scalps.

It was officially named the **North West Arm** on 1 March 1921 and it was changed to **Northwest Arm** on 4 April 1933.

## Shoreline development

Much of the shoreline of the Northwest Arm, referred to locally as "the Arm," is fronted by private residences.

The Northwest Arm is the location of several parks. Point Pleasant Park at the southern entrance to the Arm on the Halifax Peninsula. Sir Sandford Fleming Park on the western shoreline contains the Dingle Memorial Tower which, in 1908, commemorated the 150th anniversary of the establishment of responsible government in Nova Scotia, the first colony in the British Empire to do so. Deadman's Island Park commemorates American soldiers who died while imprisoned on the island during the War of 1812.

The Atlantic School of Theology also maintains its campus along the southern part of the arm.

The Northwest Arm is the location of four marinas:

# Northern pocket gopher

The **northern pocket gopher** (***Thomomys talpoides***) is a small gopher species native to the western United States and the Canadian provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan, British Columbia, and Manitoba.

## Description

Northern pocket gophers have long rich brown to yellowish brown fur, paler below, with a black patch behind the ear. They weigh 60 to 160 grams (2.1 to 5.6 oz).

## Habitat

Their habitat consists usually of good soil in meadows or along streams; most often in mountains, but also in lowlands. Northern pocket gophers rarely appear above ground; when they do, they rarely venture more than 2.5 feet (0.76 m) from a burrow entrance. Underground, however, they often have tunnels that extend hundreds of feet where they live, store food, and give birth to their young.

## Interactions

According to an article published in the *Journal of Mammalogy*, there are both positive and negative impacts of burrowing by pocket gophers on the organisms around them. Burrowing and grazing have an impact on the plants and the herbivores that consume these plants, even though gophers do not directly interact with the insects in their habitats. Changes in the plants’ composition can cause an increase in soluble amino acids, carbohydrates, chemicals, which causes the plants to be more vulnerable to parasites, predation, and diseases.

# Weidum

**Weidum** is a village in Leeuwarden municipality in the province of Friesland, the Netherlands. It had a population of 576 in January 2017.

## History

The village was first mentioned in the 13th century as Wedum, and means "settlement on the pasture". Weidum was a *terp* (artificial living mound) village from the Middle Ages. Around 1900, most of the *terp* was excavated. The tower of Dutch Reformed church dates from the early-12th century and was later enlarged. The church itself was built in the 13th century.

Dekemastate was a *stins* near Weidum which was first mentioned in 1199. In 1397, Sytse Dekema, the owner of the *stins* returned for Italy to discover that his estate had been destroyed by the Vetkopers. Dekema subsequently fought against the Vetkopers, and in 1399 against the Count of Holland. Dekemastate was rebuilt, but put up for sale in 1796 and subsequently demolished. A manor house was built in its place, however it was severely damaged in a storm in 1898, and in 1902 Dekemastate disappeared for good.

In 1840, Weidum was home to 374 people.

Before 2018, the village was part of the Littenseradiel municipality and before 1984 it belonged to Baarderadeel municipality.
