# Mate Balota

**Mijo Mirković** (Croatian pronunciation: \[mǐjo mǐːrkɔ̝v̞it͡ɕ\]; 28 September 1898 – 17 February 1963), also known by his pen names **Miho** and **Mate Balota**, was a prominent Croatian poet, novelist and economist. Considered one of the most prominent Croatian poets of the 20th century and often credited as the greatest Istrian poet, he was called "the greatest Istrian after Labin's Matija Vlačić" by Tone Peruško.

Mirković was born in Rakalj, southeastern Istria. His family was evacuated to Moravia at the beginning of the Great War. Upon his return to Croatia he worked as a journalist in Pula before moving to Zagreb, where he graduated from the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences. He later studied economy and social sciences in Berlin and Frankfurt, where he had gone in order to examine the original manuscripts of Matija Vlačić. He obtained his doctorate from the University of Frankfurt in 1922, and subsequently taught in Osijek, Subotica and Belgrade.

A member of Yugoslav Academy of Sciences and Arts (JAZU) since 1947, he was its Secretary General from 1958 until 1961, and in 1960 received the Lifetime Achievement Award.

Mirković is one of the most appreciated Croatian dialect poets. Beside poetry, he is also known for his narrative and nonfiction books, and for his works on economy. He published many discussions, books and textbooks on the theory of foreign and domestic trade, industrial policy, national economy, history of economy and economics of agriculture, publishing such works as *Trade and Domestic Trade Policy* (1931), *Foreign Trade Policy* (1932), *Industrial Policy* (1936), *Agrarian Policy* (1940), *Economic Structure of Yugoslavia 1918–1941* (1950) and *Economic History of Yugoslavia* (1958).

His best known work of poetry is the collection *Dragi kamen*, published in Zagreb in 1938 and named after the 1931 poem, which was later published in several more editions. Described as a nostalgic experience of Istria, a meeting named after the book is held in Rakalj since 1968, in Mirković's honour. Among his other books there are *Stara Pazinska Gimnazija* and *Puna je Pula*, the latter a monograph in which Mirković combines fiction with documentary work. These realist texts depict life in the Istrian villages, with both the Istrians' happy and tragic moments. His only novel is *Tijesna zemlja: roman iz istarskog narodnog života* (1946), an economic and social study in which he portrays life in an Istrian village from the second half of the 19th century until the 1940s, following the life of a family through three generations.

## Early life

Mijo Mirković was born in Rakalj, Istria, on the Kvarner Gulf, which at the time was part of the Austro-hungarian empire. He attended the elementary school founded by his father, Ante Mirković-Gaspić, in his native village. Before his ninth birthday, Mirković was already working as a helper-machinist in ships transporting stones from Rakalj to Ancona. He later worked in the local mines, in a print shop and on a railroad.

Mirković attended the high school *Veliku državnu gimnaziju u Pazinu* ("Royal Great State Gymnasium") in Pazin, and later in Zabreh, in the Czech Republic. His family had been evacuated to Moravia following the outbreak of World War I.

He later came back to Istria, working as a journalist and an editor for the Pula newspaper *Hrvatski list*. Mirković was in Pula at the time of the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy.

Starting from 1919 he studied philosophy and Slavonic studies in Zagreb and Belgrade. He later studied economics and humanities in Berlin and Frankfurt am Main, where in 1922 he received his doctorate in economics with a thesis titled *O glavnom razlogu gospodarske zaostalosti slavenskih naroda* ("on the main reason for the economic backwardness of the Slavic peoples"). The dissertation is kept at the Frankfurt University Library.

Mirković had decided to go study in Frankfurt, because there were stored the manuscripts of Vlačić (Flacius), who he considered the "greatest Istrian of all time." His studies of Vlačić's manuscripts in Frankfurt later resulted in his extensive and well-documented work on the reformer. In the interwar period he worked as a substitute professor in several places throughout former Yugoslavia, including the Trade Academy in Osijek and the Maritime Academy in Bakar. He taught at the Subotica Law School (1928–39) and at the Belgrade School of Economics. Mirković also visited many European universities and scientific cultural centers.

The 1930s were an extremely fruitful decade for Mirković. At this time he intensively studied the life and the works of Matija Vlačić Ilirik, publishing *Flacius* (1938); *Matija Vlačić* (1957); *Matija Vlačić Ilirik* (1960). A monograph resulting from these studies, *Matija Vlačić-Ilirik I–II* was published posthumously. Mirkovic's interest in Labin native Flacius reportedly dated back to his childhood, and it might have been transmitted to him by his mother, who was originally from Skitača, in the Labinština.

In 1938 he published one of his best known works, the Chakavian collection of poems *Dragi kamen* (literally, "Dear Rock" and also "Precious Stone"). This collection has a "native theme and strong social tone, with a nostalgic experience of Istria."

During the Second World War he completed his only novel *Tight Country: A Novel from Istrian Folk Life*, or *Tijesna zemlja. Roman iz istarskog narodnog života* (1946). He united documentary and fiction works in his *Puna je Pula* (1954). Another well known book by Mirković is *Stara Pazinska Gimnazija* (1950). Mirković's verist works depict life in the Istrian villages, with the Istrians' happy, sad and tragic moments.

Mirković participated to the Paris Peace Conference, and thus contributed to the annexation of Istria to Croatia. From 1957 until his death he was full professor at the Faculty of Economics in Zagreb. In 1960, he received the Lifetime Achievement Award. Starting from 1947 he was a full member of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts, where he was Secretary General from 1958 until 1961.

Mirković published a large number of university textbooks and works on economy, including *Ekonomsku historiju Jugoslavije* (1958). He was one of the most prolific writers on economy between the two world wars. He published works on economy history and discussions in the field of foreign and domestic trade theory, agrarian economics, and industrial policy. Such works include *Trgovina i unutrašnja trgovinska politika* ("Trade and Domestic Trade Policy"), 1931; *Spoljna trgovinska politika* ("Foreign Trade Policy"), 1932; *Industrijska politika* ("Industrial Policy"), 1936; *Agrarna politika* ("Agrarian Policy"), 1940; *Ekonomska struktura Jugoslavije 1918–1941* ("Economic Structure of 1918–1941 Yugoslavia"), 1950; *Ekonomika agrara FNRJ* ("Economics of Agriculture of the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia"), 1950; *Seljaci u kapitalizmu* ("Peasants and Capitalism"), 1952; *Ekonomska historija Jugoslavije* ("Economic History of Yugoslavia"), 1958; *Uvod u ekonomiku Jugoslavije* ("Introduction to the Economy of Yugoslavia"), 1959.

Mirković was particularly fond of Labin and its people, possibly due to the fact that his grandmother, Martina, was from nearby Labin.

He died in Zagreb and was buried in Rakalj. His funeral in Rakalj "went into memory as the largest spontaneous funeral Istria had ever seen," with reportedly eight thousands people coming from all parts of the Kvarner and Istria.

## Poetry

Mirković wrote his first poem, *Kuraj* ("Courage"), about the courage of fishermen at sea at 9. In high school he founded the magazine *Nada - Hope*, in which he also published his poems.

Mirković is considered one of the leading Croatian poets of the 20th century, is often credited as the greatest poet from Istria, and has been described as the most prominent Istrian of all times, with Tone Peruško crediting him as the second greatest Istrian after Matija Vlačić Ilirik.

His poetry influenced the following generation of poets. He published a total of 50 poems of uniform quality. With his poetry, "he anticipated and touched on important ideological problems and existential doubts of the contemporary intellectual."

The South Istrian Chakavian of his poetry has been described as musical and somewhat archaic. In his songs he has his most unstable verse, which in places is completely free. The rhythm of poetry "often follows the rhythm of folk songs." The "relation to verse, versification and metrics is unpredictable," and the verse is markedly free, as is "the relation to language and its grammatical and orthographic laws, regardless of whether it is written in a dialect or a book-standard." His poems treat urban themes. His collection of poems "became a cult book of Istrian Croats due to its great popularity." Mirković is credited with having expressed in poetry and journalism "the voice of the \[common\] people of Istria." He is one of the most appreciated Croatian dialect poets.

## Prose

His novel and indirect autobiographical work *Tijesna zemlja: roman iz istarskog narodnog života* (1946) polarizes the critics to this day. It is a socioeconomic study of Istrian villages in the second half of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. In this book he portrays life in an Istrian village, from 1870 until 1941. The novel follows the life of a family through three generations. The narrator speaks in Croatian, while the characters communicate in the dialect of southeastern Istria.

Mirković's feuilleton and travel books, so far "an insufficiently valued part of his oeuvre", confirm him as one of the most prominent Croatian writers in the middle course of the Croatian literature. The thematic of his travelogues is somewhat complementary to Mirković's work in other genres. The thematic framework of his work consists of "social peasant misery, love themes, betrayal and the destinies of emigrants," as well as "travel, the sea, the world of childhood \[...\] ideological choice and commitment." His other notable works of prose include *Proza i poezija* ("Poetry and Prose"), 1959, the drama *Smrtni grijeh* ("Mortal Sin"), 1964, *Selected Works* (with N. Pavić, P.Ljubić and Drago Gervais in the edition *Five Centuries of Croatian Literature*, 1973) and a selection from the work *Na crvenoj istarskoj zemlji* ("On the Red Istrian Land"), 1979.

## Legacy

Today, there is a street or square dedicated to Balota in most towns of the Kvarner and Istria, and in cities such as Rijeka, Zadar and Pula. The Faculty of Economics and Tourism "Dr. Mijo Mirković" in Pula owes its name to Mirković. Rijeka's Mijo Mirković School of Economics is named after him.

The scientific conference *Susreti na dragom kamenu* ("Encounters on a Precious Stone") is held every year in Mirković's honour in his native Rakalj. The historic KSI Mate Balota in Zagreb is named after him. Jadrolinija's MF Mate Balota, mostly sailing around Zadar, is named after him.

title: Vin de France

abstract: Vin de France is a designation for table wine from France that has been in use since 2010, when it started to replace the former vin de table category. Vin de France wines may indicate grape variety and vintage on the label, but are not labelled by region or appellation; they are labelled only as coming from France. This means that the wines are typically sold under brand names or as branded varietal wines.

# Vin de France

**Vin de France** is a designation for table wine from France that has been in use since 2010, when it started to replace the former *vin de table* category. *Vin de France* wines may indicate grape variety (for example Chardonnay or Merlot) and vintage on the label, but are not labelled by region or appellation; they are labelled only as coming from France. This means that the wines are typically sold under brand names or as branded varietal wines.

## Position in the wine classification of France

Vin de France is the lowest level of three in the overhauled wine classification system of France, ranked below the intermediate category *indication géographique protégée* (IGP) and the highest category *Appellation d'origine protégée* (AOP). Unlike Vin de France, IGP and AOP wines indicate the wine's geographical origin within France. This system of three levels replaces the former system of four levels - *vin de table*, *vin de pays*, *vin délimité de qualité supérieure* (VDQS), and *appellation d'origine contrôlée* (AOC) - and was fully introduced by 2012.

## Background

The former *vin de table* category, which represented the simplest wines produced in France, had suffered from decreasing sales for several decades. These were simple everyday wines that were mainly produced in the south of France. This category had been very difficult to export in an increasingly competitive global wine market, especially since the wines were not allowed to carry a varietal designation or indicate vintage. This meant a distinct competitive disadvantage to New World wines and many other European wines in a similar price range. Simple varietal French wines instead had to use the *vin de pays* ("country wine") designation, which restricted the sourcing of grapes to the defined *vin de pays* regions, such as *vin de Pays d'Oc* from Languedoc-Roussillon. No French wine category existed that allowed a producer to source grapes from Languedoc-Roussillon, Rhône and Provence, but still sell the wine under a varietal designation.

As a result of the ongoing crisis in the French wine industry, Bernard Pomel was tasked with making proposals on how to remedy the situation. The Pomel report was presented to the French minister of agriculture on March 23, 2006, and proposed among other things a simplification of French wine classification, including the elimination the VDQS category, which was done in December 2007. At the same time, the European Union was considering reforms to the wine sector, aiming at reducing the need for subsidies. This also implied reforms of the European Union wine regulations, which went into effect on August 1, 2009. The reform included some liberalisation of the regulations surrounding the EU table wine category. Following that reform, France in 2009 decided to introduce the *vin de France* category as a replacement for *vin de table*. The introduction of the category took place in 2010.

## Reception

When the category was introduced, some commentators expected many French producers to start using the *vin de France* category instead of categories with geographical indications, in particular the IGP (formerly *vin de pays*) category. Some saw the *vin de France* category as more adapted to the needs of large wine companies rather than small producers.

## Notes and references


title: Viola bastarda

abstract: - Lyra bastarda is a common misnomer for the baryton. Viola bastarda refers to a highly virtuosic style of composition or extemporaneous performance, as well as to the altered viols created to maximize players' ability to play in this style. In the viola bastarda style, a polyphonic composition is reduced to a single line, while maintaining the same range as the original, and adding divisions, improvisations, and new counterpoint. The style flourished in Italy in the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Francesco Rognoni, a prominent composer of divisions, stated that although works using the bastarda techniques could be played by a number of instruments, including organ, lute, and harp, the "queen" of bastarda technique was the viol because of its agility and large range. The first use of the term was by Girolamo Dalla Casa in a 1584 treatise. Rognoni's Selva de varii passaggi was the definitive treatise on viola bastarda technique. Earlier bastarda compositions were accompanied by viol consort or plucked instrument such as the lute or harpsichord, with another instrument on the bass line. Later compositions were accompanied by continuo bass. The last composer to write for the bastarda was Vincenzo Bonizzi, in Alcune opere di diverse auttori a diverse voci, passaggiate principalmente per la viola bastarda (1626). Viola bastarda music is written for standard viol tuning, in fourths with a third in the middle. Early sources speak of the viola bastarda as a style of playing, and the ranges of pieces written during this time indicate that bastarda pieces were played on whichever size viol was at hand; however, Rognoni describes the standard size of a viola bastarda as between that of a tenor and bass viol, indicating a change in understanding of the term. It may be related to the English division viol.

# Mateo & Matos

**Mateo & Matos** is a team of two American deejays and house music producers, John "Roc" Mateo and Eddie "E-Z" Matos, from New York City, United States.

## History

John "Roc" Mateo and Eddie "E-Z" Matos were both influenced by late 1970s disco. Mateo started by broadcasting sets over his CB radio in 1985, and it was through this self-produced show that Matos first contacted him. They became friends and shortly afterward became professional partners. Their inspirations include Larry Levan, Tony Humphries, Shep Pettibone and Little Louie Vega. They were introduced to Vega later that year, learning about studio production and engineering from him. From 1986 to 1989, Mateo & Matos performed at many club festivals and old school block parties in the tri-state area of New York. By 1989, they were working on their own productions. After several releases on their own Final Cut Records label, they went on to record for Oxygen Music Works, Henry Street, Nervous Records, Nite Grooves and Spiritual Life Music in the mid-1990s. Their debut album as producers, *New York Rhythms*, appeared on the Scottish Glasgow Underground Recordings label in 1997, with a second volume appearing the following year. In 1999, these were followed by *The Many Shades of Mateo & Matos*.

They have since made deejay appearances in over 30 countries and released dozens of original productions and remixes on record labels such as Manuscript Records Ukraine, King Street Records, Defected Records, and Large Records.

title: Mater si, magistra no

abstract: Mater si, magistra no is a macaronic phrase suggesting that Catholics need not follow all the teachings of the Catholic Church, particularly in regard to economic justice or the rights of workers. It was originally in direct response to the papal encyclical Mater et Magistra in 1961, as a reference to the anti-Castro slogan, "Cuba sí, Castro no."

# Mater si, magistra no

***Mater si, magistra no*** (English: "Mother yes, teacher no") is a macaronic phrase suggesting that Catholics need not follow all the teachings of the Catholic Church, particularly in regard to economic justice or the rights of workers. It was originally in direct response to the papal encyclical *Mater et Magistra* in 1961, as a reference to the anti-Castro slogan, "Cuba sí, Castro no."

## History

The original use was focused on the Church's 1960s teachings on social policy, as expressed by the encyclical *Mater et magistra*, but Roman Catholic publications such as the *New Oxford Review* and the *National Catholic Reporter* have described it as a slogan for "'pick-and-choose Catholicism" or for those who have a "deep love for the faith and tradition, coupled with skepticism about ecclesiastical authority and its claims to special wisdom."

The phrase is often attributed to William F. Buckley, Jr; although it was first published in Buckley's *National Review*, the phrase was actually coined by Garry Wills during a telephone conversation with Buckley.

Russell Shaw says the phrase "helped set the stage for the self-righteous dismissals that greeted the 1968 publication of Pope Paul VI's encyclical *Humanae Vitae*", and later Pope Francis's *Laudato si'* on the environment. It became the expression of a knee-jerk antipathy to church teaching \[which\] spread to other areas where dissenters happened not to like what was taught.

## Cultural impact

* When *Commonweal* published Eamon Duffy's negative review of Garry Wills' 2000 book *Papal Sin*, the caption on the front cover read, "Mater Si, Wills No".
* *National Review* editor Priscilla Buckley subsequently regretted having published the phrase, stating in 2005 that it had "got \[*National Review*\] into lots and lots of trouble ... over lots and lots of years".

title: Virgin and Child with Saint Anne

# Virgin and Child with Saint Anne

The **Virgin and Child with Saint Anne** or **Madonna and Child with Saint Anne** is a subject in Christian art showing Saint Anne with her daughter, the Virgin Mary, and her grandson Jesus. This depiction has been popular in Germany and neighboring countries since the 14th century.

## Names

Names for this particular subject in other languages include:

## Background

In the 13th century, Jacobus de Voragine incorporated apocryphal accounts from the Protoevangelium of James regarding the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary in his *Golden Legend*. The cult of St. Anne spread rapidly and she became one of the most popular saints of the Latin Church. Saint Anne was recognized as the patroness of grandparents, women in labor, and of miners, Christ being compared to gold, and Mary to silver. Inscriptions on some medieval church bells indicate that Saint Anne was invoked for protection against thunderstorms.

## Mother and daughter

The subject of Saint Anne and the Virgin and Child was a popular subject in both painting and sculpture. This was due in part to its universality "—the love and tension between generations and also between humanity and the divine." The *Anna Selbdritt* style, popular in northern Germany in the 1500s, demonstrates the medieval focus on the humanity of Jesus. St. Anne's motherhood of Mary was viewed as mirroring Mary motherhood of Jesus. In 1497, the German Benedictine abbot Johannes Trithemius, in his *De purissima et immaculate conception virginis Marie et de festivitate sancta Annematris eius* linked the Immaculate Conception of Mary to the devotion to her mother. While the matter of the Immaculate Conception remained a subject of debate between philosophers and theologians, the depiction of *Joachim and Anne Meeting at the Golden Gate* was sometimes interpreted as a symbolic representation of the conception of Mary. Saint Anne was revered as the *avia Christi* ("grandmother of Christ"), matriarch of the Holy Kinship and exemplary mother.

## Iconography

Fourteenth-century images of Saint Anne with the Virgin and Child were often modeled on the earlier seat of Wisdom motif. Mary was often shown as a much smaller figure than her mother. As devotion to St. Anne developed 14th century, sometimes a statue of the Madonna and Child was modified to include the additional figure of St. Anne. Anne's traditional colors are green and red, although often she is shown wearing the more sober colors of an older woman.

## Depictions

Italian Renaissance painter Masaccio took up the subject around 1424. Leonardo da Vinci did an oil painting on this theme for the Church of Santissima Annunziata in Florence. Albrecht Dürer made an oil painting on wood around 1519 on the same subject. Bartholomäus Bruyn the Elder painted *Virgin and Child with Saint Anne, Saint Gereon, and a Donor* c. 1520.

Around 1606 Caravaggio undertook a commission from the Confraternity of Sant' Anna dei Palafrenieri. He depicted the Virgin and Child treading on the head of the serpent, observed by St. Anne, who was the patron saint of the Palafrenieri.

## Byzantine iconography

Eastern depictions of the apocryphal narrative mimic the scriptural account of the annunciation of the Archangel Gabriel to Mary and take the form of a reclining Agios Joachim beside a double-vesicled fountain or well, implying Mary's perpetual virginity flows from the mystery of her Immaculate Conception in the womb of her mother Agia Anna in linear fashion conform with Eastern creedal statements on the procession of the Holy Spirit. Absent modern meteorology, and therefore the scientific knowledge of how surface water is replenished naturally by atmospheric moisture, the early Christian artist was limited by linear symbolism of gravity known in the topography of the region. Dewfall and the phenomenon of manna in the desert would have been known but revered as ineffable.

# Matilde Pretel

**Matilde Pretel** (1874 - 26 November 1965) was a Spanish singer. A soprano from Valencia, she is remembered for her performances in opera and zarzuela.

## Biography

Pretel studied at the Conservatori Superior de Música Joaquín Rodrigo, Valencia. She debuted at the Teatro de la Zarzuela in Madrid in 1890 in the role of Robert (commonly played by a woman) in Ruperto Chapí's *La tempestad*. Her musical qualities as well as her showmanship and her physical beauty made her a favorite of the public and composers. Chapi wrote *Mujer y reina* (1895) and *El estreno* (1899) for Pretel. She was worked for various companies, including the Teatre Príncipe Alfonso, Teatre Circo de Price, Teatre de la Comèdia and finally the Teatro Apolo during the 1899-1900 season. She performed in works by Cristóbal Oudrid, Francisco Asenjo Barbieri, Emilio Arrieta, and Joaquín Gaztambide y Garbayo, among others. In 1900, Pretel left the Teatro Apolo and performed in various parts of Spain. She had her own zarzuela company with businessman Bonifacio Pinedo, but in 1909, she retired from performing, without stating her reasons, and settled permanently in Madrid. She was the first woman in Madrid, in the era of big hair buns, to cut her hair short.

It utilizes an airborne bus such as Ethernet or MIL-STD-1553.

## Background

Due to size and cost limitations, Trainer Planes are not able to accommodate a traditional radar system. ”Virtual Training” capability consists of implementation of a **virtual radar** capability as well as a ground-based mission management and debriefing capability. This provides an affordable solution to radar training to flight students and support future pilot training.

The airborne component of the “Virtual Radar” provides radar capability for both Air-To-Air (A/A) and Air-To-Ground (A/G) radar modes without the use of radar system.

The system provides data via airborne bus such as Ethernet or MIL-STD-1553B, to the Mission Display Processor (MDP) that simulates unclassified radar data. The system may also provide RS-170 video synthesizing A/G radar maps – Real Beam Maps Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) maps etc.

The basis of the virtual radar system is a closed loop data network. All participants in the Network can share their GPS positioning data and supplemental Air Data Computer (ADC) data to calculate targeting information like a radar system. All participants in the network must have a virtual radar system to either receive target data or generate target information to other participants.

The Ground-based portion of the Virtual Training must support training mission management when it is an active participant in the data network as well as provide post training mission debriefing capabilities with video and data review from data recorded on a Digital Video Recorder (DVR). The data network must support all virtual radar requirements with or without the participation of a Virtual Training Ground system.

title: Weeton, North Yorkshire

abstract: Weeton is a village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. The name is first attested in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Widetun(e)/Wideton(e) and seems to derive from Old English wiðig 'willow' and tūn 'settlement, estate, farm', thus meaning 'willow farm'. Located between Otley and Harrogate it is close to the River Wharfe. Largely populated by commuters working in Leeds and Bradford, it is accessed from the A61 or the A658. The parish also contains the village of Huby, approximately 1 mile (1.6 km) north-west of Weeton, where Weeton railway station is situated. Weeton has no pub, shop or post office. It is home to the Weeton Agricultural Show and Weeton and Huby Cricket Club. The village church is dedicated to St Barnabas. The architect was the leading Victorian Gothic Revivalist, George Gilbert Scott and it was funded by the Earl of Harewood. The foundation stone was laid in 1851 by the Bishop of Ripon and construction was completed in 1852. The nearby parsonage was built in 1853. The first three vicars were the Rev. James Palmes, the Rev. T.H. Fearon and, from 1867, the Rev. Christopher Wybergh. The village is the subject of a booklet by Joan Coombs. To the south east of Weeton, Rougemont Castle is an example of a well-preserved ringwork, located above the north bank of the River Wharfe, where the river turns in a right-angle at its confluence with Weeton Beck.

title: Tom Quad

abstract: The Great Quadrangle, more popularly known as Tom Quad, is one of the quadrangles of Christ Church, Oxford, England. It is the largest college quad in Oxford, measuring 264 by 261 feet. Although it was begun by Cardinal Wolsey in 1525–1529, he was unable to complete it before his fall from power. Wolsey planned a cloister, but only the starts of the arches on the walls, and of the supports jutting into the lawn were done; these can still be seen around the quadrangle. The main entrance was also left incomplete, and it is not known how the gatehouse was planned to look. After some 150 years, the gatehouse was completed in 1681–1682 with Tom Tower, designed by Sir Christopher Wren, when John Fell was Dean. A statue of Queen Anne on Tom Tower overlooks the main entrance to the Quad. The quad is listed Grade I on the National Heritage List for England.

The main entrance was also left incomplete, and it is not known how the gatehouse was planned to look. After some 150 years, the gatehouse was completed in 1681–1682 with Tom Tower, designed by Sir Christopher Wren, when John Fell was Dean. A statue of Queen Anne on Tom Tower overlooks the main entrance to the Quad. The quad is listed Grade I on the National Heritage List for England.

## Description

The funds for the building of Tom Quad were found from the suppression of three Norbertine abbeys. It is dominated to the west by Tom Tower, designed by Sir Christopher Wren. On the east side is the entrance to Christ Church Cathedral and at the south-east corner is the entrance to the college dining hall. The north contains the homes of the canons of Christ Church, and much of the east side is taken up with the Deanery, in which the Dean of the college lives. On the north-east side, the quad leads, via Kilcannon, to Peckwater Quadrangle and the college library. In the north-west part of the quad is the Junior Common Room ("JCR"). Parts of the quad are still lived in by undergraduates, including the staircase above the Porter's lodge, known as "Bachelors' Row", to the left of the quadrangle when entered via Tom Gate. Bachelors' Row was only inhabited by first year male undergraduates until 2014, when the first female first year undergraduates took up residence there.

## Mercury fountain

In the centre of the quad, there is an ornamental pond with a statue of Mercury. In the past, it was traditional for "hearties" (sporty students) to throw "aesthetes" (more artistic students) into this pond. Currently, entrance to Mercury carries a heavy fine for undergraduates. The pond also contains a large koi carp apparently worth a hefty sum, and donated by the Empress of Japan. The base of the fountain was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, the architect who designed much of India's modern capital New Delhi.

Lady Gwendolyn Cecil, in the biography of her father (the last Victorian Prime Minister Lord Salisbury), recounts how as a student in the 1840s, he rescued his bookish friends from being dunked in the fountains, by infiltrating the *hearties* and tipping off his friends about the time of the planned raid, and arranging with them a counter-ambush:

> Late that night the intended victim sat in full view of his window, apparently solitary and absorbed in a book. But when his opponents approached the room, flushed with wine and encouraged by the certainty of victory by the unsported oak before them and by the silence that reigned around, they were suddenly startled by a yell from the dark abyss of the staircase above and at the same moment overborne by a tumultuously rushing descent. A minute later, entirely demoralized, they were flying around the quad pursued by a dozen of the most sober, respectable, and peace-loving of the reading men in the college... The next day their opponents were the laughing-stock of the college, and for some time to come a man at Christ Church might read as much and drink as little as he pleased with complete impunity'.

# The Burglar and the Lady

***The Burglar and the Lady*** is a 1905 play written by Langdon McCormick that features the characters Sherlock Holmes and A. J. Raffles, which were originally created by other authors. The play was a commercial success, and a film adaptation was made in 1914.

## History

Like many of McCormick's plays, *The Burglar and the Lady* was primarily a touring show and first premiered on October 1, 1905, at the State Street Theatre in Trenton, New Jersey. It came to Broadway in September 1906, appearing for a week at the American Theatre. The story pitted Sherlock Holmes, the famous fictional detective created by Arthur Conan Doyle, against A. J. Raffles, a fictional criminal created by E. W. Hornung. McCormick did not bother to ask permission for the use of either character.

Former World Heavyweight boxing champion "Gentleman Jim" Corbett played Raffles. The character's nationality was changed from English to American to match Corbett's casting. The play was produced by Corbett's touring company. Sherlock Holmes was initially played by Arthur V. Johnson. The play toured the country for several years and several other actors played Holmes.

In the Sherlock Holmes journal *Baker Street Miscellanea*, Donald K. Pollock states that the play "was performed at least 374 times and toured the entire U.S., placing it among the more successful of Sherlockian plays."

## Reception

Following the Broadway production, a critic in the *New York Dramatic Mirror* praised Corbett for his "natural and self-possessed demeanor" but was more critical of Johnson's portrayal of Holmes, claiming he lacked "the air of confidence which should accompany the character". The reviewer also expressed concern that "the delights of thievery are exhibited in a way calculated to impress youths of criminal inclinations with a desire to emulate the successful burglar".

After a brief run of the play in Chicago in December 1906, a reviewer in the *Chicago Examiner* wrote regarding the play, "Sherlock Holmes gets the worst of it in every act and the 'burglar' finally gets 'the lady'". The reviewer also referenced Corbett's boxing career: "In this newest dramatic uplift, Corbett proceeds along new lines. Instead of foiling the other fellow with a right cross to the jaw and a left hook to the solar plexus, the actor uses nothing more persuasive than a pair of large .44-caliber revolvers."

## Film adaptation

The play was adapted as a silent film in 1914. Herbert Blaché directed and Corbett again played Raffles. The adaptation removed the Holmes character.

title: Optic papillitis

abstract: Optic papillitis is a specific type of optic neuritis. Inflammation of the optic nerve head is called "papillitis" or "intraocular optic neuritis"; inflammation of the orbital portion of the nerve is called "retrobulbar optic neuritis" or "orbital optic neuritis". It is often associated with substantial losses in visual fields, pain on moving the globe, and sensitivity to light pressure on the globe. It is often an early sign of multiple sclerosis. Papillitis may have the same appearance as papilledema. However, papillitis may be unilateral, whereas papilledema is almost always bilateral. Papillitis can be differentiated from papilledema by an afferent pupillary defect, by its greater effect in decreasing visual acuity and color vision, and by the presence of a central scotoma. Papilledema that is not yet chronic will not have as dramatic an effect on vision. Because increased intracranial pressure can cause both papilledema and a sixth nerve palsy, papilledema can be differentiated from papillitis if esotropia and loss of abduction are also present. However, esotropia may also develop secondarily in an eye that has lost vision from papillitis. Retrobulbar neuritis, an inflamed optic nerve, but with a normal-appearing nerve head, is associated with pain and the other findings of papillitis. Pseudopapilledema is a normal variant of the optic disk, in which the disk appears elevated, with indistinct margins and a normal vascular pattern. Pseudopapilledema sometimes occurs in hyperopic individuals. Workup of the patient with papillitis includes lumbar puncture and cerebrospinal fluid analysis. B. henselae infection can be detected by serology. MRI is the preferred imaging study. An abnormal MRI is associated with a worse visual outcome.

# Oronero

***Oronero*** (English: *Black Gold*) is the tenth studio album by Italian singer-songwriter Giorgia, released on 28 October 2016 by the record label Michroponica, and distributed by Sony Music.

The album peaked at number two of the Italian Albums Chart, being certified double platinum by FIMI. The album was promoted by severals singles and the Oronero Live Tour, which was recorded for the live album *Oronero Live*, promoted by the collaboration "Come neve" with Marco Mengoni.

## Composition and themes

> "It is a situation that affects us all, we move in a world where through social media we can say anything and talk about anything, communicate, confront each other, however, then there is a part of it all that becomes violent, almost out of obligation. This is where the metaphor of oil comes from, which in nature is not a bad thing, it is a resource, but misused it becomes a weapon, it becomes poison.
>
> Gioriga about the album conception

The album contains fifteen tracks, of which ten are co-written by Giorgia, plus numerous collaborations with Italian and international artists. The writers include the Italians Tony Maiello, Daniele Rea, Pacifico and the singers partner Emanuel Lo, as well as international collaborations with Allan Rich and Jud Friedman. In an interview with *La Stampa*, Giorgia explained the process behind the production of the album:

> "With Michele we worked a lot on pre-production so that by the time we recorded we already knew what to keep and what to look for. \[...\] The lyrics reflect who I am with the fears and anxieties that we live in a world like this."

Musically the album was inspired by Beyoncé's vocal ability which is "on par with the rhythmic", Rihanna and Drake's R&B and Soul style. The album title refers to an Italian expression for identifying petrolio, or "black gold."

## Critics reception

Mattia Marzi of *Rockol* described the project as the synthesis between the previous projects, reconnecting "almost seamlessly, to the electropop and dance" of Dietro le apparenze and "to the more acoustic, played soul; \[...\] bringing Giorgia back to her comfort zone, to her territories" of Senza paura. Marzi indicated that the tracks "Posso farcela" and "Non fa niente" are two songs "in the background, almost on the sidelines" with respect to the record, emphasizing an "introverted and introspective attitude" of the singer, becoming "the most effective on the record."\[21\] Fabio Fiume of All Music Italia claimed that the singer is "enriched by a large group of American authors and musicians" who, with the help of Canova, produce sounds "intentionally electronic and certainly of international level." Fiume described the project "knowing and thoughtful" as it is the manifestation of "the testament of her current moment."

# Orthalicidae

**Orthalicidae** (**orthalicid land snails**) are a family of tropical air-breathing land snails, terrestrial pulmonate gastropod mollusks are classified in the subfamily Orthalicoidea of the order Stylommatophora.

They are medium-sized to large snails, from about 3 cm (about 1.2 inches) to 9 cm (about 3.5 inches) in shell length

## Taxonomy

In former times, this family was often known as the **Bulimulidae**, but this term may also denote what today is the subfamily Bulimulinae. The subfamily Bulimulinae replaces the former family Bulimulidae Crosse & P. Fischer, 1873.

### 2005 taxonomy

The Orthalicidae belong to the Orthalicoidea, a superfamily in the order Sigmurethra. Like other stylommatophorans, the Sigmurethra belong to the suborder Helicina. Among the three subfamilies of Orthalicidae, the Bulimulinae are the most diverse, consisting of three tribes:

* subfamily Amphibuliminae P. Fischer, 1873 - synonym Peltellinae Gray, 1855 (check decision of International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature for Peltellinae) - 17 species
* subfamily Bulimulinae Tryon, 1867 - 1243 species
    + tribe Bulimulini Tryon, 1867 - synonyms: Bulimidae Guilding, 1828 (inv.); Berendtiinae P. Fischer & Crosse, 1872; Bothiembryontidae Iredale, 1937
    + tribe Odontostomini Pilsbry & Vanatta, 1898 - 125 species
    + tribe Simpulopsini Schileyko, 1999 - synonym: Tomogeridae Jousseaume, 1877
* subfamily Orthalicinae Albers, 1850 - synonym: Liguidae Pilsbry, 1891 - 83 species

### 2010 taxonomy

Breure et al. (2010) elevated Bulimulinae to Bulimulidae, Odontostomini to Odontostomidae, Amphibuliminae to Amphibulimidae.

### 2012 taxonomy

Breure & Romero (2012) confirmed previous results from 2010, additionally they elevated Simpulopsini to Simpulopsidae.

## Genera

Genera within the family Orthalicidae include:

title: Orthant

abstract:
In geometry, an orthant or hyperoctant is the analogue in n-dimensional Euclidean space of a quadrant in the plane or an octant in three dimensions. In general an orthant in n-dimensions can be considered the intersection of n mutually orthogonal half-spaces. By independent selections of half-space signs, there are 2n orthants in n-dimensional space. More specifically, a closed orthant in Rn is a subset defined by constraining each Cartesian coordinate to be nonnegative or nonpositive. Such a subset is defined by a system of inequalities:
  - ε1x1 ≥ 0      ε2x2 ≥ 0     · · ·     εnxn ≥ 0, where each εi is +1 or −1. Similarly, an open orthant in Rn is a subset defined by a system of strict inequalities
  - ε1x1 > 0      ε2x2 > 0     · · ·     εnxn > 0, where each εi is +1 or −1. By dimension:
  - In one dimension, an orthant is a ray.
  - In two dimensions, an orthant is a quadrant.
  - In three dimensions, an orthant is an octant. John Conway and Neil Sloane defined the term n-orthoplex from orthant complex as a regular polytope in n-dimensions with 2n simplex facets, one per orthant. The nonnegative orthant is the generalization of the first quadrant to n-dimensions and is important in many constrained optimization problems.

# Orthant

In geometry, an **orthant** or **hyperoctant** is the analogue in *n*-dimensional Euclidean space of a quadrant in the plane or an octant in three dimensions.

In general an orthant in *n*-dimensions can be considered the intersection of *n* mutually orthogonal half-spaces. By independent selections of half-space signs, there are 2*n* orthants in *n*-dimensional space.

More specifically, a **closed orthant** in **R***n* is a subset defined by constraining each Cartesian coordinate to be nonnegative or nonpositive. Such a subset is defined by a system of inequalities:

ε1*x*1  0      ε2*x*2  0     · · ·     ε*n**x**n*  0,

where each ε*i* is +1 or 1.

Similarly, an **open orthant** in **R***n* is a subset defined by a system of strict inequalities

ε1*x*1 \> 0      ε2*x*2 \> 0     · · ·     ε*n**x**n* \> 0,

where each ε*i* is +1 or −1.

By dimension:

* In one dimension, an orthant is a ray.
* In two dimensions, an orthant is a quadrant.
* In three dimensions, an orthant is an octant.

John Conway and Neil Sloane defined the term *n*-orthoplex from **orthant complex** as a regular polytope in *n*-dimensions with 2*n* simplex facets, one per orthant.

The **nonnegative orthant** is the generalization of the first quadrant to *n*-dimensions and is important in many constrained optimization problems.

* Cross polytope (or orthoplex) – a family of regular polytopes in *n*-dimensions which can be constructed with one simplex facets in each orthant space.
* Measure polytope (or hypercube) – a family of regular polytopes in *n*-dimensions which can be constructed with one vertex in each orthant space.
* Orthotope – generalization of a rectangle in *n*-dimensions, with one vertex in each orthant.
