# WRKE-LP

**WRKE-LP** is a college radio-formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Salem, Virginia, serving Salem and Roanoke in Virginia. WRKE-LP is owned and operated by Roanoke College. The station currently employs 70 Roanoke College Students and broadcasts from the main floor of the Colket Center of Roanoke College.

## Background

WRKE is a student run, non-commercial radio station licensed by the Federal Communications Commission to Roanoke College. WRKE is a advised under a professional advisory board. The station is under manager and adviser Rick Mattioni, and program director Elijah Wilhelm. The station plays on an automated system playing alternative/indie music when student DJs are not on air. Student shows vary from sports-talk, alternative, pop, or hip-hop.

## History

The station got its start in 1998 when Jim Goodwin formed a club to establish a radio station on campus. Equipment was obtained and the station went on the air November 2005 with music played via computer automation until students returned after winter break to establish programming and shows. The station is building a fan base on campus and beyond as far as its low power transmitter can carry. While the broadcast radius is a mere 3 miles, this covers most of the Roanoke College community. Over the summer of 2016 a new, larger, more accessible on-air studio was built on Colket's main floor just a few feet from the Center's front doors and across the hall from the Commons. The upgrade enhances WRKE's ability to conduct interviews in roomier surroundings; produce live (and recorded) specials such as election night coverage and music performances; and increases the station's visibility. Beginning in early 2017, WRKE experienced unprecedented growth resulting in the station growing from 13 students, hosting 8 shows to 75 students, hosting 34 shows. WRKE also began its live and special events during this time. Events included Outlast, a competition similar to Big Brother, live radio dramas with the theater department, and live events from down in the Cavern. For their progress WRKE, under Program Director Elijah Wilhelm, won the Student Organization of the Year award for both the 2016-17 school year and the 2017-2018 school year. This is the only time the award has been won by the same organization in back to back years.

## Programming

The station is DJ'd by Roanoke College students throughout the week during the academic year, and the station plays on an automated system playing alternative music when student DJs are not on air. Student shows vary from sports-talk, alternative, pop, or hip-hop. Over the past year WRKE has also expanded its speciality event programming included joint collaborations with the RC theatre and athletic departments, remote broadcasts from local businesses, live audience shows for students, radio dramas, and a reality game competition.

title: Tuscany station

abstract: Tuscany station is a CTrain light rail station in Tuscany and Rocky Ridge, Calgary, Alberta, Canada. It is the northern terminus of the Northwest Line, and opened as part of the route's the 2 km extension on August 23, 2014. Originally referred to in planning documents as Tuscany/Rocky Ridge station, Calgary Transit simplified the name on the recommendation of the Community Consultation Committee. The station, originally planned for completion after 2023, was approved and funded by Calgary City Council on November 7, 2007, for completion by 2011. The station had been included as part of Mayor Dave Bronconnier's re-election platform during the 2007 Municipal elections. Construction was to begin in the Spring of 2009 with completion in Fall 2011. However, budget issues as well as a delay with the Crowchild Trail/Stoney Trail Interchange delayed the start of construction three years to Spring 2012 with an opening date of August 23, 2014. It is currently the northwestern station/terminus on the CTrain system on the Red Line. The station is located in the median of Crowchild Trail, to the west of Rocky Ridge Road. The station is the final station currently planned for the Northwest leg of the CTrain, and is located approximately 2 kilometres northwest of the previous last CTrain station; Crowfoot. After only a few weeks of service the station exceeded the estimated usage of 9,000 weekday customers with 11,000 recorded weekday customers in mid-September 2014. The station has two Park and Ride lots, located on the north and south side of Crowchild Trail. Plans are to incorporate into the development an Art Moderne heritage gas station building and sign from a former restaurant and motel, Eamon's Bungalow Camp, that once lay along the Old Banff Coach Road. On September 20, 2016, the worst accident in CTrain history occurred in the tail-tracks north of the station. In the early morning, a three car Series 8 train, composed of units 2311, 2310 and 2329, stopped at the platform, and then accelerated into the tail-track. The accident resulted in three injuries stemming from the 60 km/h impact with an overhead wire pole at the end of the tracks. The driver suffered serious injuries, as the catenary counterweights went through the windshield. The accident resulted in car 2311 being retired.

# Pachyurus

***Pachyurus*** is a genus of freshwater ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Sciaenidae, the drums and croakers. The ten recognised species in the genus are found in South America.

## Taxonomy

*Pachyurus* was first proposed as a genus in 1831 by the Swiss born American naturalist Louis Agassiz when he described the new species *Pachyurus squamipennis*, with a type locality given as Januária on the São Francisco River, Minas Gerais, in Brazil. The genus *Pachyurus* is included in the subfamily Pachyurinae by some workers, but the 5th edition of *Fishes of the World* does not recognise subfamilies within the Sciaenidae, which it places in the order Acanthuriformes. In addition, Pachyurinae, is an invalid name as it is preoccupied by a tribe of cycad weevils, the Pachyurini Kuschel, 1959 .

## Etymology

*Pachyurus* is a combination of *pachy*, meaning "thick", and *oura*, which means "tail". This is an allusion to the dense covering of scales on the caudal fin of the type species, *P. squamipennis*.

## Species

*Pachyurus* contains ten described, recognised species:

## Characteristics

*Pachyurus* croakers have a moderately elongated body with a sounded, slightly high dorsal profile and a straight or slightly arched, ventral profile. They have a conical head with a swollen and blunt snout. The mouth is horizontal and may be terminal or below the snout. The eyes are moderately large to large. The snout has five marginal pores, typically they lack upper pores but these are present in some species. The chin has five pores but no barbels. The second spine of the anal fin is moderately sized or robust. These are relatively small croakers, the largest species is *P. junki* with a maximum published total length of 35.5 cm (14.0 in).

## Distribution

*Pachyurus* croakers are found in freshwater habitats in South America from Guyana south to Argentina.One species, the La Plata croaker (*P. bonariensis*), is an invasive, non native species in the Lagoa Mirim and Lagoa dos Patos systems in Uruguay and Brazil where it is already numerous enough to be important in commercial fisheries in these lakes. They reached these lakes either by deliberate introduction or by moving from the nearby river systems through flooded rice fields.

The park features many walking paths and a jogging path. Several small islands in the lake are linked by bridges. The south-east end of the lake has a handful of carnival rides for children.

The South Gate of Forest Park Station of the Beijing Subway is located at the south entrance to the park.

## Layout

The Beijing Olympic Forest Park is located on the northern end of the city's north–south central meridian, where the Forbidden City palace is also situated and is divided by the North Fifth Ring Road. The park is composed of a Northern Garden and a Southern Garden which is connected by an ecological bridge that extends over the Beijing's expressway. Within these two garden sections are various features such as the Yangshan Mountain, Aohai Sea, large-scale flower fields, and artificial wetland. The park also contains large sports fields like the National Tennis Center, football field, and hockey field.

### Southern Garden

The Southern Garden is an area of around 1.5 square miles (3.9 square kilometers) and is well known for the Yangshan Mountain and Aohai Sea. In addition to these two sites, there is a man-made wetland in the northwest area of the Southern Gardens which has a transparent underwater corridor; to the west of the corridor is a small waterfall that cascades down in tiers. Also, during the 2008 Olympic Games, tennis, shooting, and hockey competitions were held in the west of the Southern Garden in three large stadiums adjacent to each other. As of today, only the National Tennis Center remains for its original purpose; there is a large-scale green field in place of the shooting range while the hockey field was reconstructed for football. There are other fields for various sports in the northwest corner of the Southern Garden such as football, basketball, and badminton.

#### Aohai Sea

From the entry in the southern gate, visitors can see a large patch of water which is the Aohai Sea. The Grand Music Fountain performance is also able to be seen from bleachers of the wide open-air square at the south bank. The fountain's highest spout can reach 262 feet (80 meters) in height and is able to change the water into different shapes that correspond to the music's' rhythm.

#### Yangshan Mountain

The Yangshan Mountain is an artificial landscape on the north bank of the Aohai Sea. At the top of the man-made mountain is a viewing platform called Tian Jing with two vantage points, Zhao Hua and Xi Shi, at the west and east sides.

#### National Tennis Center

The National Tennis Center is an area of 200,000 square yards (167,225 square meters) and holds 10 competition courts and six practice courts with a total of 17,400 guests' seats. The stadium is constructed from reinforced concrete with no decoration and pale-grey concrete walls; there is a central court and two main courts that are designed in a dodecagon formation with 12 bleachers on each edge. During the China Open, the top tennis players gather from all over the world to compete at the tennis center.

### Northern Garden

The Northern Garden is a space dedicated to plants and animals as well as a place for people to be able to immerse themselves in nature. In the center of the Northern Garden, there is a lake, while to the southwest, there are large flower fields that showcases sunflowers, marigolds, and maidenhairs.

## Design and Sustainability

To lessen the ecological pressure on Beijing and its limited water resources, a self-sustaining and self-regulating water body was in great need; however, the construction provided to be a large technical challenge of the Olympic Forest Park due to the dry climate and high evaporation rate of the area. The Olympic Forest Park utilizes reclaimed water as a main source of water for the landscape, which is a first for China's urban parks; this is done through a system that incorporates existing water bodies to create a dynamic water reclamation and reuse system that uses purified greywater, surface runoff, rain and floodwater as a source. In the dry seas, water can be restored to Beijing using two alternative water circulation systems; in the rainy season, the water systems can also help the city discharge floodwater. In addition, an early warning system and dynamic water quality simulation was built to predict pattern changes in water quality and give forewarnings.

The main water features of the Olympic Forest Park are a lake (20.3ha) and wetland (4.15ha). The wetland design emphasized education throughout the landscape; a boardwalk is implemented around and through the wetland so that visitors have the opportunity to learn about the process on glass walls. There is a greenhouse that refines 600 cubic meters of water each day to explain the water purification systems by having an interactive exhibition.

For the Olympic Forest Park design to generate habitats that facilitate and maintain local biodiversity, the choice and placement of plant species mandated research of many different native plants; such as their communities and conditions as well as to the recognition of patterns of plant species, frequency, dimensions, seasonal features, and application conditions. Indigenous plant species’ seed that had genetic advantages were chosen for the landscape in order to benefit the environment in a way such as encouraging biodiverse and creating primary habitats for mammals; this resulted in more than 300 plant flames being selected to use in the Olympic Forest Park.

Analyses of plants and their growth on the site were mapped during field surveys; many of the plants were kept in their original location and became new features in the landscape such as isolated and preserved islands. The topsoil and earth which was excavated from the park's bodies of water and other parts of the park ground was used in the construction of landforms and creation of the main mountain. To connect the Southern Garden and Northern Garden together, an ecological corridor bridge is planned over the Fifth Ring Road; the bridge allows the park to maintain the network of the urban ecological system, facilitate migration and disruption of plant species, protect biodiversity, and connect forest patches.

The park incorporates over 90 buildings which were designed as prototypes for various energy-saving and reuse ideas, technologies, and materials. The building all featured exterior walls that implemented geothermal pump systems, thermal insulation materials, and central ventilation systems which had independent temperature controls as well as humidity and tubular skylight materials. The roofs of the pergolas installed solar panels while the decking, railing, and accessories used new recyclable wood and plastic composites. The fertilizer created by the life and waste of the garden through a recycling and reuse system of solid waste is applied throughout the park.

## Landscape Performance Benefits

### Environmental

There have been many proven environmental benefits from the landscape performance of the Olympic Forest Park. The trees in the Olympic Forest Park sequester around 3,962 metric tons (8,735,000 lbs) of carbon dioxide annually which is equivalent to removing 777 passenger vehicles off the road. The park decreased the annual consumption of potable water by 950,000 cubic meters (250 million gallons), which is comparable to 380 Olympic-sized swimming pools, for irrigation and to recharge the park's bodies of water through using reclaimed water from the Qinghe Waste Water Treatment Plant. In addition, the Olympic Forest Park creates 83,000 kWh of electricity per year from solar photovoltaic panels that are installed on the top of the trellis structure at the park's south gate. By doing so, the energy created by the panels is enough to meet the energy needs of 227 China residents for a year as well as lower the consumption of coal by 30 metric tons (66,000 lbs). The decline of coal use has an added benefit of reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 8 metric tons (172,000 lbs), sulfur dioxide by 720 kg (1,590 lb), nitric oxide by 210 kg (460 lb), smoke by 81 kg (179 lb), and dust by 45 kg (99 lb) per year.

### Social

A social benefit that has occurred from the Olympic Forest Park is that the park has drastically improved the quality of life for 96% of 373 visitors who were surveyed. For the visitors who were interviewed, they stated that the park is a very nice place because it provided ample recreation and exercise opportunities. In 2011, the park was able to provide an outdoor classroom for around 2,000 children from elementary schools within 2 km.

### Economic

As for the economic benefits, 1,563 new jobs were produced, such as landscape, security, and cleaning services, from the construction of the Olympic Forest Park.

title: Immunophenotyping

abstract: Immunophenotyping is a technique used to study the protein expressed by cells. This technique is commonly used in basic science research and laboratory diagnostic purpose. This can be done on tissue section, cell suspension, etc. An example is the detection of tumor markers, such as in the diagnosis of leukemia. It involves the labelling of white blood cells with antibodies directed against surface proteins on their membrane. By choosing appropriate antibodies, the differentiation of leukemic cells can be accurately determined. The labelled cells are processed in a flow cytometer, a laser-based instrument capable of analyzing thousands of cells per second. The whole procedure can be performed on cells from the blood, bone marrow or spinal fluid in a matter of a few hours. Immunophenotyping is a very common flow cytometry test in which fluorophore-conjugated antibodies are used as probes for staining target cells with high avidity and affinity. This technique allows rapid and easy phenotyping of each cell in a heterogeneous sample according to the presence or absence of a protein combination.

title: Olympius

abstract: Olympius was a minister of the Western Roman Empire, in the court of the emperor Honorius. Olympius orchestrated the fall and execution of the capable general Stilicho, who had effectively been ruling the Western Roman Empire as regent of Honorius for over twelve years. Germanic tribes invaded Italy in 405. Honorius and the court took refuge in Ravenna, now the capital of the Western Roman Empire. Stilicho defeated the invaders in the mountains of Fæsulæ (Fiesole) near modern-day Florence. The Vandals, Alani, and Suevi poured over the Rhine into the interior of Gaul, followed by Franks, Burgundians, and Alemanni, who settled permanently on the left bank of the Rhine. Stilicho entered into negotiations with Alaric, holding out promises of Eastern Illyria to secure his aid. Thereupon the Roman general Constantine, who had crossed over from Britain, appeared in Gaul, and proclaimed himself Emperor. The negotiations with Alaric failed and Alaric demanded an indemnity of 4000 pounds in gold; Stilicho, who had twice saved Italy from barbarian incursion, was suspected by the court of entertaining treasonable plans. The weak-willed Honorius listened to the insinuations of the chancellor Olympius and proceeded to have Stilicho and his family put to immediate execution. After Stilicho's execution, Olympius prompted Honorius to take a more hostile stance toward the Goths, mostly notably Alaric I, who had previously been cooperating with the Romans. Olympius, through Honorius, orchestrated the massacre of tens of thousands of wives and children of Goths serving in the Roman military. Subsequently, around 30,000 Gothic soldiers defected to Alaric and took part in the first sack of Rome in 800 years, a key event in the fall of the Western Roman Empire. When Constantius, who had been a friend and supporter of Stilicho, became magister militum in 410/11, he had Olympius clubbed to death.

## Reception

| Review scores | |
| --- | --- |
| Source | Rating |
| AllMusic |  |
| Robert Christgau | A− |
| *The Penguin Guide to Jazz Recordings* |  |

The AllMusic review by Scott Yanow had awarded the album 4 stars stating, "a remarkable virtuoso who can seemingly do anything he wants on his horns. It is just a matter of passing time and accomplishments accumulating before Carter is thought of as one of the all-time greats... the dominant voice throughout is James Carter's, who in general is a little more restrained, which makes his fiery explosions and colorful tonal distortions really stand out. Recommended". *All About Jazz* noted, "The album concept for James Carter's fifth release as leader is the familiar organ combo sound with earthy tenor saxophone. The concept works for the 29-year-old saxophonist, who still manages to retain the other elements with which his career has been associated: overt physical avant-garde taunts, swingin' Kansas City rambles, and polite mainstream lyricism"". Critic Robert Christgau rated the album an "A−", saying, "Just by blowing so lustily and swinging so edgily, Carter puts out more personality and pleasure than all but a few musical word-slingers".

title: In Car Stereo

abstract: In Car Stereo is the final album by British pop group The Dooleys. It failed to secure a release in the UK and was only issued in Japan. Following the failure of their previous album and follow-up singles, the group was dropped by Epic Records. The Dooleys set up their own label, R 'n' R Records, and recorded this album with a new female vocalist, Vicki Roe. The first single released was "Flavour of the Month" in September 1983, but charted outside the UK top 100 at 106 and forced them to shelve the album. The album did get a release in Japan, however, where the group had enjoyed two earlier No.1 singles, along with the release of the title track as a single. Neither charted in Japan and this effectively marked the end of The Dooleys as a recording act. The Dooleys continued touring and released a limited edition 12" single, "New Beginning", under the name Force 8, but this failed to attract any attention. The song itself became a big hit for Bucks Fizz in 1986 however. That same year, "Flavour of the Month" was belatedly released as a single in Ireland, where Vicki Roe was originally from. It gained much radio attention, but failed to chart. The Dooleys went through further line-up changes and finally disbanded in 1991.

# On Protracted War

***On Protracted War*** (simplified Chinese: 论持久战; traditional Chinese: 論持久戰; pinyin: *Lùn chíjiǔ zhàn*) is a work comprising a series of speeches by Mao Zedong given from May 26, 1938, to June 3, 1938, at the Yenan Association for the Study of the War of Resistance Against Japan. In it, he calls for a protracted people's war, as a means for small revolutionary groups to fight the power of the state.

## Content

Mao proposed the idea of protracted war in response to two prominent extreme views of the Second Sino-Japanese War. Mao opposed both the overly optimistic view (referred to as the "quick-win theory") that China would receive foreign help to defeat Japan while the Communist Party of Japan overthrew the emperor and the overly pessimistic view (the "subjugation theory") that presumed Japan would overwhelm China, maybe in as quick as three months.

### Strategy

Mao starts off the book by critiquing the "defeatist exponents of the theory of national subjugation". He argues that because of the creation of the Second United Front and national "perseverance" the Japanese have failed to achieve a victory through mobile warfare and that China was now engaged in a "protracted war". Afterwards, Mao criticizes the proponents of "China's quick victory" stating that they were underestimating the enemy. He expresses his dislike of armchair generals who assume that Guerrilla warfare holds a supplementary role to mobile warfare. Mao laments that their hopes consisted chiefly of a victory through foreign military intervention by the Soviet Union or victory through a decisive military solution.

Mao stated that there had to be three prerequisites in order to achieve victory and defeat the forces of Japan:

> "First, the establishment of an anti-Japanese united front in China; second, the formation of an international anti-Japanese united front; third, the rise of the revolutionary movement of the people in Japan and the Japanese colonies. From the standpoint of the Chinese people, the unity of the people of China is the most important of the three conditions."

Mao argues that resistance against Japan must come through the form of both conventional resistance, and a rearward strike on the logistical and reinforcement capabilities of Japanese forces. He asserted that warfare through conventional means must not involve static defense of nonessential strategic objectives.

> "Our strategy should be to employ our main forces to operate over an extended and fluid front. To achieve success, Chinese forces must conduct their warfare with a high degree of mobility on extensive battlefields... This means large scale mobile warfare, and not positional warfare... It does not mean the abandonment of all the vital strategic points, which should be defended by positional warfare as long as possible... Positional warfare is necessary, but strategically it is auxiliary and secondary."

As part of his goal to wage a people's war, Mao explained that large numbers of Guerrilla units among the peasants were necessary for such a strategy to succeed. China's ability to supply her troops depended on captured Japanese equipment stocks and foreign deliveries, allowing China to conduct positional warfare when her conventional capabilities matched the Japanese, who would be worn down using the aforementioned rearward strikes.

### Politics

The basis of a people's war, a war waged by the peasants and thus the party, necessitated political control over military operations. This was echoed by his 1938 statement:

> **"**Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun**.** Our principle is that the Party commands the gun, and the gun must never be allowed to command the Party. Yet, having guns, we can create Party organizations, as witness the powerful Party organizations which the Eighth Route Army has created in northern China."

In *On Protracted War* Mao argues that wars waged by communists were inherently progressive and just. All wars which had the support of the party were to be actively participated in, even if they were in coordination with reactionary factions. Mao criticized "idealists" who refused to cooperate with said reactionaries.

### Influence

Among the military pedagogical films produced by the PLA's August First Film Studio was *Tunnel Warfare,* depicts villagers who become guerillas and build a network of tunnels in which invading enemy troops ultimately become trapped. *Tunnel Warfare* highlighted the principles discussed in *On Protracted War*. *Tunnel Warfare* was viewed approximately 1.8 billion times.

# OnePath Network

**OnePath Network** is an Australian Islamic-themed original content video production studio and media outlet based in Sydney, Australia. It was established in 2014 as a not-for-profit organization and da‘wah media network. It publishes videos, articles, news, and interviews, and produced the short film Last Chance.

## History

OnePath network was founded in March 2014 in Sydney as a non-profit by Malaz Majanni as a da‘wah initiative; the goal was to create "values based" video content to counter negative views of Islam and Muslims and to generate news, documentaries, and commentary from a Muslim perspective. The network was started with $1M in donations from the Muslim community, and sought to grow by selling advertising aimed at young Muslims. It aimed to distribute its content through its website and apps, YouTube, Facebook, and occasionally in other outlets like movie theaters. The project was endorsed by Ibrahim Abu Mohamed, the Grand Mufti of Australia, and in April 2015 Irfan Yusuf endorsed the network in an editorial published in the Sydney Morning Herald.

Guests have included Brian McDonald, the head of the AFP counterterrorism team, and in 2016 they interviewed Oliver Bridgeman, who alleged that he had been trapped in Syria after the Australian Government cancelled his passport.

In October 2016 the OnePath Network produced Last Chance, a 45-minute film about a young Muslim man tempted into a life of selling drugs and violence, which was shown in movie theaters in Australia. By February 2018 the network had made and released around 400 videos.

## Awards

At the 2016 Australian Muslim Achievement Awards, OnePath Network won Media Organisation of the Year, and one of its hosts was a finalist for Role Model of the Year. The following year, in 2017, the network won the award in the "media" category of Dubai's Islamic Economy Awards.

In 2023, OnePath Network was awarded YouTube's 1 Million subscriber creator award. https://www.youtube.com/OnePathNetwork

| Allmusic |  |
| *Cross Rhythms* |  |

Tim A. Smith from Allmusic found that the project's "music aptly fits its title, *Incredible*. Superstar producer Warryn Campbell \[...\] once again works his magic. These sisters rock." *Cross Rhythms* editor Tony Cummings felt that "with their second project Erica and Tina Campbell cover just about every musical base – banging hip hop beats, black church rave ups, soulful ballads and funky R&B grooves while their lyrics are never less than uplifting."

## Chart performance

*Incredible* debuted and peaked at number 20 on the US *Billboard* 200, selling 43,000 copies in its first week. The album also entered the top ten of the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums and topped the Top Gospel Albums chart. While *Incredible* charted higher than its predecessor *Thankful* (2000), it sold significantly less. It was eventually certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), indicating sales in excess of 500,000 copies.

In response to the albums sales Tina Campbell elaborated in a 2005 interview: "The business of music has changed drastically since the first record. There have been huge mergers, the advent of Napster \[at the time a music piracy utility\], and downsizing of labels. Our second record came in the midst of all of that. When we were performing, people asked when we'd release our second album, even though it had already been out for six weeks. So I definitely think it may not have gotten the push the first one got."
