**Małgorzata Szumowska** (Polish: \[mawɡɔˈʐata ʂuˈmɔfska\]; born 26 February 1973) is a Polish film director, screenwriter and producer, born in Kraków.

Her 2013 film *In the Name Of* received the Teddy Award for Best Feature at the 63rd Berlin International Film Festival, and received the Grand Prix at the 32nd annual Istanbul Film Festival. Her film *Body* was selected to be screened in the main competition section of the 65th Berlin International Film Festival. Szumowska won the Silver Bear for Best Director for *Body*. In 2018, she received Jury Grand Prix at the 68th Berlin International Film Festival for her film *Mug*.

## Career

Szumowska spent two years studying history of art at the Jagiellonian University before she started film studies.  Szumowska graduated from the celebrated National Film School in Łódź, which boasts such alumni as Andrzej Wajda, Roman Polański or Krzysztof Kieślowski.  As a student, Szumowska made a short which was ranked 14th in the history of Łódź Film School. *Cisza* (*Silence*) is a short documentary film in which Szumowska tried to capture a simple life of a Polish rural family.

In 2001, she became a member of the European Film Academy. In 2016, she was a member of jury headed by Meryl Streep at the 66th Berlin International Film Festival. In 2018, she was also selected a member of the jury headed by Guillermo del Toro at the 75th Venice International Film Festival.

In 2020, her film co-directed with Michał Englert *Never Gonna Snow Again* was selected as the Polish entry for the Best International Feature Film at the 93rd Academy Awards.

### *Szczęśliwy człowiek* (*Happy man*)

Szumowska graduated from the film college in 1998 and made her debut feature film *Szczęśliwy człowiek* (*Happy Man*) in 2001. The film was nominated to The European Film Award and Szumowska became a member of the European Film Academy in the same year.  The plot explores complicated relationships among three people facing enormous difficulties who nonetheless strive to achieve happiness, or, at least, steer clear of tragedy.

### *Ono* (*Stranger*)

Her next film, *Ono* (*Stranger*), focused on the relationship between a pregnant woman and the baby she is expecting. Having decided not to have an abortion, the mother tries to prepare her child for the experience of the outside world. Things get complicated when the woman faces health problems.

### *Ojciec* (*Father*)

In 2005 Szumowska made a short film *Ojciec* (*Father*), one of thirteen contemporary stories written by Polish film directors to celebrate Solidarity which made up the film *Solidarność, Solidarność* (*Solidarity, Solidarity*). Based on her father's experiences, Szumowska's film uses archival footage from his documentaries.

### *33 sceny z życia* (*33 Scenes from Life*)

A significant breakthrough in Szumowska's career came in 2008, with *33 sceny z życia* (*33 Scenes from Life*), starring Julia Jentsch, which won a Special Prize at the Locarno International Film Festival. Inspired by her own life, but, as she is careful to emphasize, "not autobiographical", the film tells the story of Julia. A talented photographer married to Piotr, a successful composer, Julia has a perfect and financially comfortable life until one day the idyll is interrupted.

### *Elles*

Szumowska worked also as a co-producer of *Antichrist*, Lars von Trier's horror film released in 2009. In 2011, she completed her international project, *Elles*, starring Juliette Binoche. The worldwide première of *Elles* took place at Toronto International Film Festival.  It tells the story of Anne, a Parisian journalist investigating prostitution among the students. Her research takes her to two girls, Charlotte and Alice, whose lives differ greatly from her own. They let her discover a world which she finds both repulsive and seductive.

### *In the Name Of*

Adam is a Catholic priest who discovered his calling as a servant of God at the relatively late age of 21. He now lives in a village in rural Poland where he works with teenagers with behavioral problems who fight and yell abuse. He declines the advances of a young brunette named Ewa; saying he is already spoken for. However; celibacy is not the only reason for his rejection. Adam knows that he desires men and that his embrace of the priesthood has been a flight from his own sexuality. When he meets Dynia; the strange and taciturn son of a simple rural family; Adam's self-imposed abstinence becomes a heavy burden.

## Personal life

Szumowska is the daughter of journalists Maciej Szumowski and Dorota Terakowska and the sister of Wojciech Szumowski, a documentary film director. She has been married to actor Mateusz Kościukiewicz since 2011. They have one daughter Alina born on 3 December 2012. She has a son Maciej from a previous relationship with the editor Jacek Drosio.

# Mechanical screening

**Mechanical screening**, often just called **screening**, is the practice of taking granulated or crushed ore material and separating it into multiple grades by particle size.

This practice occurs in a variety of industries such as mining and mineral processing, agriculture, pharmaceutical, food, plastics, and recycling.

A method of separating solid particles according to size alone is called screening.

## General categories

Screening falls under two general categories: dry screening, and wet screening. From these categories, screening separates a flow of material into grades, these grades are then either further processed to an intermediary product or a finished product. Additionally, the machines can be categorized into a moving screen and static screen machines, as well as by whether the screens are horizontal or inclined.

## Applications

The mining and mineral processing industry uses screening for a variety of processing applications. For example, after mining the minerals, the material is transported to a primary crusher. Before crushing large boulder are scalped on a shaker with 0.25 in (6.4 mm) thick shielding screening. Further down stream after crushing the material can pass through screens with openings or slots that continue to become smaller. Finally, screening is used to make a final separation to produce saleable products based on a grade or a size range.

## Process

A screening machine consist of a drive that induces vibration, a screen media that causes particle separation, and a deck which holds the screen media and the drive and is the mode of transport for the vibration.

There are physical factors that makes screening practical. For example, vibration, g force, bed density, and material shape all facilitate the rate or cut. Electrostatic forces can also hinder screening efficiency in way of water attraction causing sticking or plugging, or very dry material generate a charge that causes it to attract to the screen itself.

As with any industrial process there is a group of terms that identify and define what screening is. Terms like blinding, contamination, frequency, amplitude, and others describe the basic characteristics of screening, and those characteristics in turn shape the overall method of dry or wet screening.

In addition, the way a deck is vibrated differentiates screens. Different types of motion have their advantages and disadvantages. In addition media types also have their different properties that lead to advantages and disadvantages.

Finally, there are issues and problems associated with screening. Screen tearing, contamination, blinding, and dampening all affect screening efficiency.

## Physical principles

* Vibration \- either sinusoidal vibration or gyratory vibration.
    + Sinusoidal Vibration occurs at an angled plane relative to the horizontal. The vibration is in a wave pattern determined by frequency and amplitude.
    + Gyratory Vibration occurs at near level plane at low angles in a reciprocating side to side motion.
* Gravity \- This physical interaction is after material is thrown from the screen causing it to fall to a lower level. Gravity also pulls the particles through the screen media.
* Density \- The density of the material relates to material stratification.
* Electrostatic Force - This force applies to screening when particles are extremely dry or is wet.

## Screening terminology

Like any mechanical and physical entity there are scientific, industrial, and layman terminology. The following is a partial list of terms that are associated with mechanical screening.

* Amplitude - This is a measurement of the screen cloth as it vertically peaks to its tallest height and troughs to its lowest point. Measured in multiples of the acceleration constant *g* (g-force).
* Acceleration - Applied Acceleration to the screen mesh in order to overcome the van der waal forces
* Blinding - When material plugs into the open slots of the screen cloth and inhibits overflowing material from falling through.
* Brushing - This procedure is performed by an operator who uses a brush to brush over the screen cloth to dislodged blinded opening.
* Contamination - This is unwanted material in a given grade. This occurs when there is oversize or fine size material relative to the cut or grade. Another type of contamination is foreign body contamination.
    + Oversize contamination occurs when there is a hole in the screen such that the hole is larger than the mesh size of the screen. Other instances where oversize occurs is material overflow falling into the grade from overhead, or there is the wrong mesh size screen in place.
    + Fines contamination is when large sections of the screen cloth is blinded over, and material flowing over the screen does not fall through. The fines are then retained in the grade.
    + Foreign body contamination is unwanted material that differs from the virgin material going over and through the screen. It can be anything ranging from tree twigs, grass, metal slag to other mineral types and composition. This contamination occurs when there is a hole in the scalping screen or a foreign material's mineralogy or chemical composition differs from the virgin material.
* Deck - a deck is frame or apparatus that holds the screen cloth in place. It also contains the screening drive. It can contain multiple sections as the material travels from the feed end to the discharge end. Multiple decks are screen decks placed in a configuration where there are a series of decks attached vertically and lean at the same angle as it preceding and exceeding decks. Multiple decks are often referred to as single deck, double deck, triple deck, etc.
* Frequency - Measured in hertz (Hz) or revolutions per minute (RPM). Frequency is the number of times the screen cloth sinusoidally peaks and troughs within a second. As for a gyratory screening motion it is the number of revolutions the screens or screen deck takes in a time interval, such as revolution per minute (RPM).
* Gradation, grading - Also called "cut" or "cutting." Given a feed material in an initial state, the material can be defined to have a particle size distribution. Grading is removing the maximum size material and minimum size material by way of mesh selection.
* Screen Media (Screen cloth) - it is the material defined by mesh size, which can be made of any type of material such steel, stainless steel, rubber compounds, polyurethane, brass, etc.
* Shaker - the whole assembly of any type mechanical screening machine.
* Stratification - This phenomenon occurs as vibration is passed through a bed of material. This causes coarse (larger) material to rise and finer (smaller) material to descend within the bed. The material in contact with screen cloth either falls through a slot or blinds the slot or contacts the cloth material and is thrown from the cloth to fall to the next lower level.
* Mesh - The number of open slots per linear inch. Mesh is arranged in multiple configuration. Mesh can be a square pattern, long-slotted rectangular pattern, circular pattern, or diamond pattern.
* Scalp, scalping - this is the very first cut of the incoming material with the sum of all its grades. Scalping is removing the largest size particles. This includes enormously large particles relative to the other particle's sizes. Scalping also cleans the incoming material from foreign body contamination such as twigs, trash, glass, or other unwanted oversize material.

## Types of mechanical screening

There are a number of types of mechanical screening equipment that cause segregation. These types are based on the motion of the machine through its motor drive.

* Circle-throw vibrating equipment - This type of equipment has an eccentric shaft that causes the frame of the shaker to lurch at a given angle. This lurching action literally throws the material forward and up. As the machine returns to its base state the material falls by gravity to physically lower level. This type of screening is used also in mining operations for large material with sizes that range from six inches to +20 mesh.
* High frequency vibrating equipment - This type of equipment drives the screen cloth only. Unlike above the frame of the equipment is fixed and only the screen vibrates. However, this equipment is similar to the above such that it still throws material off of it and allows the particles to cascade down the screen cloth. These screens are for sizes smaller than 1/8 of an inch to +150 mesh.
* Gyratory equipment - This type of equipment differs from the above two such that the machine gyrates in a circular motion at a near level plane at low angles. The drive is an eccentric gear box or eccentric weights.
* Trommel screens - Does not require vibration. Instead, material is fed into a horizontal rotating drum with screen panels around the diameter of the drum.

### Tumbler screening technique

An improvement on vibration, vibratory, and linear screeners, a tumbler screener uses elliptical action which aids in screening of even very fine material. As like panning for gold, the fine particles tend to stay towards the center and the larger go to the outside. It allows for segregation and unloads the screen surface so that it can effectively do its job. With the addition of multiple decks and ball cleaning decks, even difficult products can be screened at high capacity to very fine separations.

### Circle-throw vibrating equipment

Circle-Throw Vibrating Equipment is a shaker or a series of shakers as to where the drive causes the whole structure to move. The structure extends to a maximum throw or length and then contracts to a base state. A pattern of springs are situated below the structure to where there is vibration and shock absorption as the structure returns to the base state.

This type of equipment is used for very large particles, sizes that range from pebble size on up to boulder size material. It is also designed for high volume output. As a scalper, this shaker will allow oversize material to pass over and fall into a crusher such a cone crusher, jaw crusher, or hammer mill. The material that passes the screen by-passes the crusher and is conveyed and combined with the crush material.

Also this equipment is used in washing processes, as material passes under spray bars, finer material and foreign material is washed through the screen. This is one example of wet screening.

### High frequency vibrating equipment

High-frequency vibrating screening equipment is a shaker whose frame is fixed and the drive vibrates only the screen cloth. High frequency vibration equipment is for particles that are in this particle size range of an 1/8 in (3 mm) down to a +150 mesh. Traditional shaker screeners have a difficult time making separations at sizes like 44 microns. At the same time, other high energy sieves like the Elcan Industries' advanced screening technology allow for much finer separations down to as fine as 10um and 5um, respectively.

These shakers usually make a secondary cut for further processing or make a finished product cut.

These shakers are usually set at a steep angle relative to the horizontal level plane. Angles range from 25 to 45 degrees relative to the horizontal level plane.

### Gyratory equipment

This type of equipment has an eccentric drive or weights that causes the shaker to travel in an orbital path. The material rolls over the screen and falls with the induction of gravity and directional shifts. Rubber balls and trays provide an additional mechanical means to cause the material to fall through. The balls also provide a throwing action for the material to find an open slot to fall through.

The shaker is set a shallow angle relative to the horizontal level plane. Usually, no more than 2 to 5 degrees relative to the horizontal level plane.

These types of shakers are used for very clean cuts. Generally, a final material cut will not contain any oversize or any fines contamination.

These shakers are designed for the highest attainable quality at the cost of a reduced feed rate.

### Trommel screens

Trommel screens have a rotating drum on a shallow angle with screen panels around the diameter of the drum. The feed material always sits at the bottom of the drum and, as the drum rotates, always comes into contact with clean screen. The oversize travels to the end of the drum as it does not pass through the screen, while the undersize passes through the screen into a launder below.

## Screen Media Attachment Systems

There are many ways to install screen media into a screen box deck (shaker deck). Also, the type of attachment system has an influence on the dimensions of the media.

### Tensioned screen media

Tensioned screen cloth is typically 4 feet by the width or the length of the screening machine depending on whether the deck is side or end tensioned. Screen cloth for tensioned decks can be made with hooks and are attached with clamp rails bolted on both sides of the screen box. When the clamp rail bolts are tightened, the cloth is tensioned or even stretched in the case of some types of self-cleaning screen media. To ensure that the center of the cloth does not tap repeatedly on the deck due to the vibrating shaker and that the cloth stays tensioned, support bars are positioned at different heights on the deck to create a crown curve from hook to hook on the cloth. Tensioned screen cloth is available in various materials: stainless steel, high carbon steel and oil tempered steel wires, as well as moulded rubber or polyurethane and hybrid screens (a self-cleaning screen cloth made of rubber or polyurethane and metal wires).

Commonly, vibratory-type screening equipment employs rigid, circular sieve frames to which woven wire mesh is attached. Conventional methods of producing tensioned meshed screens has given way in recent years to bonding, whereby the mesh is no longer tensioned and trapped between a sieve frame body and clamping ring; instead, developments in modern adhesive technologies has allowed the industry to adopt high strength structural adhesives to bond tensioned mesh directly to frames.

### Modular screen media

Modular screen media is typically 1 foot large by 1 or 2 feet long (4 feet long for ISEPREN WS 85 ) steel reinforced polyurethane or rubber panels. They are installed on a flat deck (no crown) that normally has a larger surface than a tensioned deck. This larger surface design compensates for the fact that rubber and polyurethane modular screen media offers less open area than wire cloth. Over the years, numerous ways have been developed to attach modular panels to the screen deck stringers (girders). Some of these attachment systems have been or are currently patented. Self-cleaning screen media is also available on this modular system.

## Types of Screen Media

There are several types of screen media manufactured with different types of material that use the two common types of screen media attachment systems, tensioned and modular.

### Woven Wire Cloth (Mesh)

Woven wire cloth, typically produced from stainless steel, is commonly employed as a filtration medium for sieving in a wide range of industries. Most often woven with a plain weave, or a twill weave for the lightest of meshes, apertures can be produced from a few microns upwards (e.g. 25 microns), employing wires with diameters from as little as 25 microns. A twill weave allows a mesh to be woven when the wire diameter is too thick in proportion to the aperture. Other, less commonplace, weaves, such as Dutch/Hollander, allow the production of meshes that are stronger and/or having smaller apertures.

Today wire cloth is woven to strict international standards, e.g. ISO1944:1999, which dictates acceptable tolerance regarding nominal mesh count and blemishes. The nominal mesh count, to which mesh is generally defined is a measure of the number of openings per lineal inch, determined by counting the number of openings from the centre of one wire to the centre of another wire one lineal inch away. For example, a 2 mesh woven with a wire of 1.6mm wire diameter has an aperture of 11.1mm (see picture below of a 2 mesh with an intermediate crimp). The formula for calculating the aperture of a mesh, with a known mesh count and wire diameter, is as follows:

$a=\left({\frac {25.4}{b}\right)-c}$

where a = aperture, b = mesh count and c = wire diameter.

Other calculations regarding woven wire cloth/mesh can be made including weight and open area determination. Of note, wire diameters are often referred to by their standard wire gauge (swg); e.g. a 1.6mm wire is a 16 swg.

Traditionally, screen cloth was made with metal wires woven with a loom. Today, woven cloth is still widely used primarily because they are less expensive than other types of screen media. Over the years, different weaving techniques have been developed; either to increase the open area percentage or add wear-life. Slotted opening woven cloth is used where product shape is not a priority and where users need a higher open area percentage. Flat-top woven cloth is used when the consumer wants to increase wear-life. On regular woven wire, the crimps (knuckles on woven wires) wear out faster than the rest of the cloth resulting in premature breakage. On flat-top woven wire, the cloth wears out equally until half of the wire diameter is worn, resulting in a longer wear life. Unfortunately flat-top woven wire cloth is not widely used because of the lack of crimps that causes a pronounced reduction of passing fines resulting in premature wear of con crushers.

### Perforated & Punch Plate

On a crushing and screening plant, punch plates or perforated plates are mostly used on scalper vibrating screens, after raw products pass on grizzly bars. Most likely installed on a tensioned deck, punch plates offer excellent wear life for high-impact and high material flow applications.

### Synthetic screen media (typically rubber or polyurethane)

Synthetic screen media is used where wear life is an issue. Large producers such as mines or huge quarries use them to reduce the frequency of having to stop the plant for screen deck maintenance. Rubber is also used as a very resistant high-impact screen media material used on the top deck of a scalper screen. To compete with rubber screen media fabrication, polyurethane manufacturers developed screen media with lower Shore Hardness. To compete with self-cleaning screen media that is still primarily available in tensioned cloth, synthetic screen media manufacturers also developed membrane screen panels, slotted opening panels and diamond opening panels. Due to the 7-degree demoulding angle, polyurethane screen media users can experience granulometry changes of product during the wear life of the panel.

### Self-Cleaning Screen Media

Self-cleaning screen media was initially engineered to resolve screen cloth blinding, clogging and pegging problems. The idea was to place crimped wires side by side on a flat surface, creating openings and then, in some way, holding them together over the support bars (crown bars or bucker bars). This would allow the wires to be free to vibrate between the support bars, preventing blinding, clogging and pegging of the cloth. Initially, crimped longitudinal wires on self-cleaning cloth were held together over support bars with woven wire. In the 50s, some manufacturers started to cover the woven cross wires with caulking or rubber to prevent premature wear of the crimps (knuckles on woven wires). One of the pioneer products in this category was ONDAP GOMME made by the French manufacturer Giron. During the mid 90s, Major Wire Industries Ltd., a Quebec manufacturer, developed a “hybrid” self-cleaning screen cloth called Flex-Mat, without woven cross wires. In this product, the crimped longitudinal wires are held in place by polyurethane strips. Rather than locking (impeding) vibration over the support bars due to woven cross wires, polyurethane strips reduce vibration of longitudinal wires over the support bars, thus allowing vibration from hook to hook. Major Wire quickly started to promote this product as a high-performance screen that helped producers screen more in-specification material for less cost and not simply a problem solver. They claimed that the independent vibrating wires helped produce more product compared to a woven wire cloth with the same opening (aperture) and wire diameter. This higher throughput would be a direct result of the higher vibration frequency of each independent wire of the screen cloth (calculated in hertz) compared to the shaker vibration (calculated in RPM), accelerating the stratification of the material bed. Another benefit that helped the throughput increase is that hybrid self-cleaning screen media offered a better open area percentage than woven wire screen media. Due to its flat surface (no knuckles), hybrid self-cleaning screen media can use a smaller wire diameter for the same aperture than woven wire and still lasts as long, resulting in a greater opening percentage.

# Palakunnel Valiyachan

**Palakunnel** **Mathai Mariam Kathanar** (20 February 1831 – 20 April 1900) was an Indian clergy member that served in the Archdiocese of Changanacherry.

## Early life

He was born on February 20, 1831, in Koothrapally to Palakunnel Puthiyachirakav Itticheriyath and Mariam. In his childhood, he was known as Mathen. Mathen joined Mannanam Monastery for studies in 1884. He completed his studies under the tutelage of Kuriakose Elias Chavara, the Abbot of Mannanam Ashram. He was ordained as a priest at Mannanam by Bernardine Baccenelli of St. Teresa, O.C.D, the Vicar Apostolic of Verapoly on 2 July 1855.

## Social reformations

Throughout his life he worked for the betterment of people of all castes and especially the illiterate Dalits who were suffering in the society. Initiatives were taken to provide education to Dalits. He spent money from his own hands and established Churches and Schools to teach the Dalits. In the month of April 1870, Valiyachan obtained permission from T. Madhava Rao, who was the Diwan of Travancore, to say Mass at the Central Prison, Poojappura for inmates. Valyachan offered mass at Central Prison, Poojappura in the same year on Palm Sunday.

## Nalagamam

Valyachan's Nalagamam (Diary) is a valuable source for the history of Syriac Church of Kerala and the social and cultural history of Central Travancore from 1857 to 1896. The main events of that time and the historical course of the Syriac Church were carefully observed and recorded. He Has a habit of writing down all these in his own perspective. Nalagamam helps us to know about the religious moral and cultural standard of living of Nasrani Nasrani community at that time. Construction of ChanganasseryPeerumedu road in 1863, establishment of Alappuzha Light House, smallpox disease which killed thousands of people in Changanassery and other places, locust plague on Easter Thursday in 1878, earthquake in 1881, floods in Kuttanad in 1882 and 1883, etc. are all explained in Nalagamam.

**McPherson Valley Wetlands** are a disconnected chain of marshes, wetlands, and shallow lakes in McPherson County, Kansas. Once covering a much larger area, 4,455 acres of the wetlands and surrounding prairie was protected by the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks, and Tourism as of 2011.

## History and description

The McPherson Valley Wetlands are a large area of scattered natural lakes and wetlands extending from five miles northwest of McPherson, Kansas for 43 miles south to Valley Center. In the late 19th century, the wetlands consisted of 52 shallow marshes comprising more than 9,000 acres of water. The largest marsh was Big Basin, more than 2,000 acres in size. None of the marshes were more than five feet deep and many of them became dry land during the frequent droughts in the area. Two lakes, Lake Inman and Farland Lake, were among the marshes. Lake Inman, more than 100 acres in size, is Kansas's largest natural lake. The lake is in private ownership.

The wetlands were first important for waterfowl hunters who, in the last quarter of the 19th century, killed tens of thousands of ducks and other birds and shipped them by railroad to Kansas City and St. Louis. About 1900, draining of the marshes converted most of the wetlands into farmland. However, most of the land was too low and wet to become good farmland. In 1989, the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks began purchasing the former marshland and restoring it to its original condition using levees, canals, and water pumps. As of 2011, 4,455 acres of land had been purchased, including 1,760 acres of 51 wetlands, including Big Basin, Kubin, Little Sinkhole, and Chain of Lakes marshes had been restored or recreated. The state of Kansas continues to purchase land from willing sellers when funds are available.

Before being drained, the McPherson Valley Wetlands were comparable in importance to Cheyenne Bottoms, 60 miles west, for migrating waterfowl. More than 200 species of birds have been recorded in the wetlands, including white-faced ibis, snowy plover, peregrine falcons, and many species of ducks.

In 1995, for the first time in 100 years, whooping cranes visited the wetlands. In spring 2016, 17 whooping cranes visited the Big Basin marshes. In summer 2017, a roseate spoonbill visited the Little Sinkhole marshes.

## Recreation

The wetlands are open to the public year-round. Hunting for both waterfowl and upland game birds is allowed with a permit. Steel shot is required for all hunting. Lead shot is not allowed to prevent waterfowl from consuming lead while feeding. Bird watching is a major activity. Camping is not allowed.

The McPherson wetlands property is regularly patrolled by State Game Wardens employed by the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks, and Tourism. The wardens enforce all state laws on the property and check hunters for permits.

## History

The area of the modern town of Misaki was within ancient Izumi Province and has many Kofun period burial mounds. During the Edo Period, the area was an exclave of Tsuchiura Domain of Hitachi Province. The villages of Tannowa, Kyōshi, Fuke and Tanagawa were established within Hine District with the creation of the modern municipalities system on April 1, 1889. On April 1, 1896, the area became part of Sennan District, Osaka. The Nankai Railway connected Fuke to Nanba in Osaka from March 21, 1903. Fuke was elevated to town status on February 11, 1943, followed by Tanagawa on March 10, 1943. On April 1, 1955, Fuke, Tanagawa, Tannowa and Kyōshi were merged to form the town of Misaki. Misaki entered into discussions to merge with either Sennan and Hannan, or with Sennan, Hannan, Izumisano and Tajiri to form the city of "Sennanshu" (南泉州市) from 2001 to 2004; however, per a public referendum, only Misaki was in favor of the merger and plans for a merger were abandoned.

## Government

Misaki has a mayor-council form of government with a directly elected mayor and a unicameral city council of 12 members. Misaki collectively with the cities of Kaizuka, Sennan, and Hannan contributes two members to the Osaka Prefectural Assembly. In terms of national politics, the town is part of Osaka 19th district of the lower house of the Diet of Japan.

## Economy

The economy of Misaki is centered on commercial fishing, agriculture and forestry. The town is famous for its production of clay roof tiles.

## Education

Misaki has three public elementary schools and one public middle school operated by the town government, and one public high school operated by the Osaka Prefectural Board of Education.

# Psyche (band)

**Psyche** are a Canadian dark synth-pop band, now based in Germany. They are centered on singer Darrin Huss, who has been the only constant member, with various line-ups including his brother Stephen Huss, later followed by David Kristian, Per-Anders Kurenbach, and Remi Szyszka, all recording albums with Darrin under the name Psyche.

## History

### Formation

Psyche was formed by brothers Darrin and Stephen Huss in Edmonton, Alberta, named after the B-Side of Killing Joke's *Wardance* single as well as being chosen for the meaning of the word. The band's debut performance was on December 13, 1982, with Dwayne Goettel on additional keyboards.

During this period, Psyche performed bizarre live shows wherein Darrin performed nude (except for being covered in shaving cream) while talk-singing and shouting over the music. The performance idea was prompted by pictures seen of Fad Gadget in British Music magazines.

While demos were recorded during the collaboration with Dwayne Goettel, no albums were released until 1985's *Insomnia Theatre*, after Goettel's departure.

### Early years

After *Insomnia Theatre* achieved moderate success in Europe, Psyche signed with New Rose Records in Paris. They released two singles followed by a studio album, *Unveiling the Secret*, in 1986. To promote the record, Psyche performed as the opening act for Suicide, at Élysée Montmartre in Paris, then as headliners on their own European tour.

After the release of their third studio album, *Mystery Hotel*, Stephen Huss was diagnosed with schizophrenia and took a hiatus from the group. During this period Darrin began collaborating with David Kristian, leading to a new album, *The Influence*, in 1989. This album introduced new elements to Psyche's sound, with samples created by Kristian, and being performed entirely on the Casio FZ1. The songs "Misery", and "Haunted" began Psyche's shift to the dark wave music scene.

A visit home to Waterloo in 1991 reunited the Huss brothers and, the subsequent recording sessions produced 1991's *Daydream Avenue*. Though Psyche returned to tour Europe with German keyboardist Johannes Haeusler in support of English poetic artist Anne Clark, Stephen Huss stayed behind in Canada because of his illness.

In 1994, the album *Intimacy*, produced in collaboration with Joseph Watt (of Razormaid) was released, along with a companion EP of dance numbers, *Private Desires*, which featured a cover of Soft Cell's classic *Sex Dwarf*. The group embarked on a small German tour, but Stephen Huss remained in Canada, leaving Darrin to find new collaborators in Germany.

### Crossover success

After another hiatus while Darrin took part in side projects, Psyche resumed activities in 1996 with Per-Anders Kurenbach joining as a new member. The first single release was "You Ran Away" with a cover version of "Goodbye Horses" by Q Lazzarus as the B-side. This cover version became a permanent staple in Psyche's live repertoire, as well as being included on the album *Strange Romance*, which took a musical shift toward an accessible, upbeat pop sound.

After playing for the first time in Oslo, Norway and a return to Sweden, Psyche released a live video featuring highlights from their *Strange Romance* Tour. In 1998 the group signed with the StrangeWays label out of Hamburg, Germany, and released their eighth album, *Love Among the Ruined*, which included some experimental pop music.

At the beginning of 2000, Psyche signed to Artoffact Records of Toronto, Canada. The release of *Misguided Angels* contained material from 1983 through 2000 as a re-introduction of Psyche back on their original continent. It contained the last material from Per-Anders Kurenbach, and Darrin as well as some lesser-known mixes. By this point the partnership was dissolved, and Darrin began the next decade of music with Remi Szyszka as his collaborator in Psyche.

The new line-up made its debut on Accession Records with the single, *Sanctuary*, released in April 2001. After a series of concerts in both Europe and North America, a ninth studio album *The Hiding Place* was released and well-received, charting at fourth place in the year-end Top 100 of the German Alternative Charts. To capitalize on this success, a remix album entitled *Endangered Species* was released mid-2002. A series of live performances followed in 2003, along with the release of *Babylon Deluxe*, which appeared in the German Alternative Top Ten.

*The 11th Hour*, Psyche's 11th album, featured the return of previous collaborator Per-Anders Kurenbach, but including a farewell track with Remi Szyszka, and a guest appearance by Christian Wirsig. *The 11th Hour* was released through Accession Records in Europe, Metropolis Records in North America, and Irond Records in Russia making it the widest release in the band's history. The album topped the German Alternative Charts (DAC), ranking #1 for 7 weeks on the DAC Top 10 Albums of March, 2005. and Nr. 11 on the overall chart of that year.

In 2006, as the band neared its 25-year mark, a DVD collection documenting Psyche's appearances in every incarnation from 1983 to 2005 was released. Titled *Imaginary Life*, its 23 tracks included at least one song from each of the previous albums released. It contains music videos and performances beginning with "The Crawler" on an Edmonton TV station in 1983 through to 2005, an audio commentary track, and a backstage interview with the Huss brothers in Sweden after their debut concert in Gothenburg in 1988.

Following *The 11th Hour*, Psyche shifted their focus to touring rather than recording, playing shows and festivals across Europe, North and South America, and South Africa. While no new studio albums were recorded, the band released remix albums (*Unveiling the Secret 2.0*, *Until The Shadows*, *Halloween EP*), compilations of old and unreleased materials (*Re-Membering Dwayne*, *Unknown Treasures*, *As The Brain Collapses*, *Rare Mixes & B-Sides*), several live albums, and some re-releases of early albums.

In 2011, Psyche releases a cover album, "Unknown Treasures", that includes re interpretations of songs by The Cure, The Doors, Depeche Mode or Visage. In 2012, they released the "All Things Pass Into The Night" EP which included a re-recorded extended version of "Goodbye Horses" on the Optimo Label. Also in 2012 Psyche released an updated version of "The Influence" album on Italian label Final Muzik, with new interpretations of the songs "Misery", "The Sundial", and "Salvation Stranger" as well as once again "Goodbye Horses" as "Immortality Mix".

2014 saw a collaboration with Rational Youth resulting in an electronic interpretation of AC/DC's hit "Thunderstruck" being released in three different coloured vinyl 7" singles on Artoffact Records The bands toured together that same year across Scandinavia and Germany.

Psyche collaborated with Belgian artist LUMINANCE on two songs written by LUMINANCE and sung by Darrin Huss as PSYCHE on a limited coloured vinyl 7" release on Artoffact Records in 2015.

Also in the same year, continuing with Artoffact Records, Psyche began re-releasing their 80s material starting with the 30th anniversary edition of their first 12" single "Thundershowers (In Ivory Towers) which was originally from 1985.

### Recent work

In July 2016, the first three albums *Insomnia Theatre* (1985), *Unveiling the Secret* (1986/1987), and *Mystery Hotel* (1988) were digitally remastered and re-released as double albums including archival bonus tracks, plus related singles, and mixes.

Psyche released their a new original song "Youth of Tomorrow" as a video and digital release on Halloween, 2017. A 12" single followed early 2018 making it their first official release of new material in 13 years. After some European dates that year, Psyche returned to Canada for their first official tour of their home country since the early 1980s.

In 2018 and 2019 VUZ Records released a pair of compilations named *Under the Radar* containing rare and unreleased Psyche tracks as limited edition CDs. Prior to embarking on a tour with Rational Youth in 2019, the band released two remixes of their 1987 single, "Uncivilized," for which Jens Plöger provided the "Dark Italo Mix" under his studio name Run:.

title: McPherson v. Blacker

abstract: McPherson v. Blacker, 146 U.S. 1 (1892), was a United States Supreme Court case decided on October 17, 1892. The case concerned a law passed in Michigan which divided the state into separate congressional districts and awarded one of the state's electoral votes to the winner of each district. The suit was filed by several of these electors chosen in the 1892 election, including William McPherson, against Robert R. Blacker, the Secretary of State of Michigan. It was the first Supreme Court case to consider whether certain methods of states' appointments of their electors were constitutional. The Court, in a majority opinion authored by Chief Justice Melville Fuller, upheld Michigan's law, and more generally gave state legislatures plenary power over how they appointed their electors. The Court held that Article Two of the United States Constitution also constrains the ability of each state to limit the ability of its state legislators to decide how to appoint their electors.

# McPherson v. Blacker

***McPherson v. Blacker***, 146 U.S. 1 (1892), was a United States Supreme Court case decided on October 17, 1892. The case concerned a law passed in Michigan which divided the state into separate congressional districts and awarded one of the state's electoral votes to the winner of each district. The suit was filed by several of these electors chosen in the 1892 election, including William McPherson, against Robert R. Blacker, the Secretary of State of Michigan. It was the first Supreme Court case to consider whether certain methods of states' appointments of their electors were constitutional.

The Court held that Article Two of the United States Constitution also constrains the ability of each state to limit the ability of its state legislators to decide how to appoint their electors.

## Impact in *Bush v. Gore* (2000)

The ability of states to determine the selection and apportionment of their electors was later reaffirmed in another Supreme Court case, *Bush v. Gore* (2000). *McPherson* was also cited in *Bush v. Gore* by both George W. Bush and by Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist in his concurring opinion. Rehnquist admonished that "in a Presidential election the clearly expressed intent of the legislature must prevail."

## Impact in 2020 post-election legal disputes

The plenary power of State legislatures to appoint electors, as affirmed in *McPherson*, and as originally given in Article 2 of the U.S. Constitution, was suggested as a means to settle the 2020 presidential election. This power, it was also argued, has usually been delegated to the people's vote, but the power can be recovered if the existence of fraud can be proven and/or if the legislatures' election statutes have been violated or circumvented, rendering the election illegal.

On December 11, 2020, the Supreme Court denied the state of Texas's motion to file a bill of complaint against four states, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Georgia, that had awarded their electoral votes to President-elect Joe Biden.

On December 5, Republican Speaker of the Arizona House of Representatives Rusty Bowers pointed out, "it is true that the Arizona Legislature could alter the method of appointing electors prospectively. But it cannot undo the election of electors whom the voters already voted for  ... the law does not authorize the Legislature to reverse the results of an election  ... I cannot and will not entertain a suggestion that we violate current law to change the outcome of a certified election." The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania said in response to the Texas suit:

> Nothing in the Electors Clause permits a state legislature to enact a law "in defiance of provisions of \[its\] State's constitution."  ... When this Court said that state legislatures "possess\[\] plenary authority," it was referring to a legislature's authority to choose a particular "manner" for selecting presidential electors: "by joint ballot," or by "concurrence of the two houses," or by "popular vote," whether by "general ticket" or by congressional "districts." *McPherson v. Blacker*, 146 U.S. 1, 25 (1892). As the Court has made clear, "\[t\]he legislative power is the supreme authority, except as limited by the constitution of the state."  ... Taking a quote from *McPherson* out of context, Texas suggests that this plenary power permits a state legislature to nullify the will of the electorate and select its own electors  ... There is no support in *McPherson* for such an extraordinarily antidemocratic proposition.

# Farsi toothcarp

The **Farsi toothcarp** (*Esmaeilius persicus*) is a species of pupfish belonging to the family Aphaniidae. It is endemic to the Maharloo Lake Basin in Iran, residing in springs, lagoons, and marshes containing fresh to brackish water.

## Taxonomy

The species name, *persicus*, refers to Persia, the ancient name of Iran, where the fish is found. It was originally described as *Cyprinodon persicus*, later *Aphanius*. Then, in late 2011, a Late Miocene fossil genus *Brachylebias* was synonymised with *Aphanius*, which suggested a change to the extant species as there was a *B. persicus* which preoccupied the name. The replacement name proposed was *farsicus*, referring to the Fars Province, but this was not universally accepted. Finally, in 2020 it was added to a new genus *Esmaeilius* as *Esmaeilius persicus*.

## Description

Farsi toothcarp reach approximately 4.9 cm (1.9 in) in length. Like all members of its genus, the fish show sexual dimorphism. Females have numerous alternating light and dark bars, which gradually merge with the pigmentation on the rest of their bodies. The caudal fin spot has been recorded to be elongate, oval, or teardrop-shaped, but is almost always in the form of a lozenge.

Males, on the other hand, are similar in coloring to *Esmaeilius sophiae*, bearing light flank bars narrower than the alternating dark bars. The dorsal, anal, and caudal fins all have clear margins, whereas the rest of the fins are dark.
