title: Asoke Kumar Mukerji

text:
Asoke Kumar Mukerji (born December 1955) is a former Indian diplomat and writer, who teaches diplomacy at the Diplo Foundation. He was Permanent Representative of India to the United Nations from April 2013 to December 2015.

Early life and education
Mukerji was educated at North Point School, Darjeeling and St. Stephen's College, Delhi.

Diplomatic career

Mukerji qualified for the Indian Foreign Service, which he joined in July 1978.

His early diplomatic career took him to Belgrade and Washington DC. He became Consul General of India in Soviet Central Asia in June 1990, and helped transform India's relations with the five newly independent countries of Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan during the momentous period of transition following the dissolution of the Soviet Union. During March 1992 to December 1992, he was India's first Charge d'affaires in Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan. Mukerji is actively interested in Central Asian affairs. In July 2012, he articulated a forward-looking view on interaction with Central Asia in an address at the International Institute of Strategic Studies in London.

Mukerji worked as a trade negotiator in the newly formed World Trade Organization between 1995 and 1998. He was among the first Indian officials tasked with representing India in trade disputes involving India brought before the WTO Dispute Settlement Mechanism. The WTO Dispute Settlement Body in its meeting on 21 October 1998 recognized his "knowledge of the WTO issues was unsurpassed" while approving his inclusion in the Indicative List of Panelists for Dispute Settlement. Mukerji's article "Developing Countries and the WTO: Issues of Implementation" published in 2000  has been widely used in the context of the Doha Development Round of trade negotiations.

He is credited with the formation of the first private-public partnership Indian Community Welfare Committee in the United Arab Emirates during his assignment as Consul General of India in Dubai (1998-2001). This platform, under the patronage of the Government of India, brought together stakeholders from the private sector, public undertakings, and individual civil society representatives, including women social workers, to deal with issues facing Indian nationals in distress.

Mukerji was India's Deputy Ambassador to the Russian Federation between 2001 and 2005. He was responsible for the implementation of projects inducting modern defence systems into the three wings of India's armed forces during his assignment, including the T-90 main battle tank, and the Su-30MKI fighter aircraft.

As India's Ambassador to Kazakhstan (2005-2007), Mukerji negotiated the acquisition of India's first Caspian Sea oilfield stake (Satpayev) in 2005 by Indian Government-owned Oil and Natural Gas Corporation.

Between 2007 and 2010, Mukerji was India's Deputy High Commissioner to the United Kingdom at London, which is India's oldest and largest diplomatic mission.

Mukerji was responsible for India's foreign policy planning and review, participation in international organizations, border management, and cyber issues as Additional Secretary in the Ministry of External Affairs from 2010 to 2012. He headed the Government of India's multi-agency counter terrorism working groups with foreign countries, including with the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, and co-chaired the India-EU Security Dialogue. He led Indian delegations for dialogues on cyber issues with the United States, United Kingdom, Russia and Japan between 2011 and 2012.

He was Chairman of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) Steering Committee that established the South Asia Forum, tasked with implementing a South Asian Economic Union by the SAARC Summit in Maldives in 2011. He has worked closely with Indian and international think-tanks on foreign policy issues related to major transitions in India's immediate neighbourhood.

At the United Nations
Mukerji spearheaded India's campaign in the United Nations General Assembly mandated Inter-Governmental Negotiations for expanding and reforming the United Nations Security Council, catalyzing the consensus United Nations General Assembly Decision 69/560 of 14 September 2015 adopting a text-based negotiation process after 23 years of discussions.

He projected the interests of India as a major troop-contributing country to United Nations peacekeeping operations. During United Nations negotiations on Agenda 2030, Mukerji advocated strongly for the greater use of technology, especially information and communication technology, to accelerate development. The outcome of the United Nations process on Financing for Development reflected the acceptance of this proposal by the establishment of a Technology Facilitation Mechanism.

The Review of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) by the United Nations General Assembly endorsed accelerating the use of ICTs for development, including bridging the digital divides.

During a review in the United Nations on the future role of UN peacekeeping, Mukerji raised greater awareness of the need to recognize the value and role of troops sent by UN member states for peacekeeping operations.

In July 2014, the United Nations agreed, after protracted negotiations which had dragged on for almost ten years, on increasing the monthly reimbursements to troops deployed on United Nations peacekeeping operations through a survey mechanism of troop contributing countries. Consequently, the rate reimbursed for each soldier deployed for UN peacekeeping rose from US$1028 per month to US$1332 per month, and would rise up to US$1410 per month by 2017.

India became the first UN troop contributing country to create a Virtual Wall in honor of her fallen UN peacekeepers, which was launched by Mukerji at the United Nations on 29 May 2015.

The proposal by India for the establishment of a Memorial Wall at the United Nations Headquarters to honor the more than 3300 soldiers who have laid down their lives during UN peacekeeping operations was recommended by the Special Committee on Peacekeeping Operations in its report A/69/19 (Para 19), and adopted by the UN General Assembly in June 2015.

Participating in the Leaders' Summit on Peacekeeping on 28 September 2015, Prime Minister Modi called for this memorial wall to be created quickly, affirming India's readiness to contribute, including financially, towards this objective.

Mukerji crafted the successful campaign in the United Nations General Assembly to have a Resolution adopted by consensus to declare 21 June of every year as the International Day of Yoga , implementing a proposal made by Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India to the United Nations General Assembly on 27 September 2014. The Resolution moved by India attracted a record number of 177 co-sponsoring countries, and was tabled, negotiated and adopted between 27 September 2014 and 11 December 2014, making it one of the fastest initiatives of its kind to be implemented in the United Nations General Assembly. The United Nations commemoration of the First International day of Yoga was held outdoors on 21 June 2015 with the active participation of the UN Secretary General Ban ki-Moon, and beamed live for the thousands of yoga practitioners gathered at the iconic Times Square in the heart of Manhattan, symbolically linking the activities of the United Nations with the wider world.

His contributions to the work of the United Nations during his assignment were positively assessed, especially by his peers.

Public Speaking
Mukerji has been a public speaker at the Universities of Cambridge, Oxford, Harvard, Columbia, Princeton, Rochester, Dartmouth College, at the London Conference on Cyberspace and at the public commemoration of the 70th Anniversary of the signing of the UN Charter in San Francisco.

Mukerji is a member of the International Institute of Strategic Studies, London, the United Service Institution (USI), India and the Vivekananda International Foundation, New Delhi. He is also a mentor to the Centre for Strategic and Foreign Relations at Vision India Foundation.

title: John Cameron (Queensland politician, born 1834)

text:
John Cameron (19 October 1834 – 24 March 1902) was a Queensland politician, author, and public figure. A pioneering Brisbane auctioneer, realtor, and principal of Cameron Bros, John Cameron is a key early Queensland public figure and one of the builders of Brisbane.

Early history
Born in Launceston, the son of actors and pioneers of the Australian stage, Samson Cameron and Cordelia Bouchier, John was the eldest of nine children. Cameron moved to Victoria, where he married Frances Spencer Hanger in 1860. Together they produced eight children (five boys, three girls) during the 1860s and 1870s.

Brisbane Real Estate and Cameron Bros
John Cameron arrived in Brisbane, on 8 March 1861, and soon began work as a livestock auctioneer with A Twyman Auctioneering.  By the end of July that year, John Cameron had formed an auctioneering partnership with Charles Trundle. This partnership was dissolved in 1864, and Cameron began the real estate firm that would come to be known as Brisbane icon, Cameron Bros. Cameron introduced into Queensland the concept of subdividing large blocks of land into smaller allotments. He was involved in the creation of Brisbane's first estate, the Waverley Estate in Boggo Road.

Cameron's association with infamous Brisbane butcher, Patrick Mayne, began early in his career. Both were nominated as aldermen in 1865, with Mayne being elected to office.  Later, Mayne's youngest children employed Cameron Bros to manage the heritage-listed Brisbane Arcade on their behalf.

John Cameron did become an alderman, for the South Brisbane ward, but declined further offers to stand for parliament due to the demands of his business.

Historic Moreton Bay property

In 1884, Cameron built the iconic Doobawah on a 10-acre parcel of Ormiston land adjacent to Moreton Bay and Raby Bay (now located at 26 Empire Vista), with a view to a retirement spent fishing. Doobawah, the Aboriginal name for Raby Bay, also meant "a vast expanse of water". The property, a former cane plantation, was bounded by Wellington and Eckersley Streets, and fringed by Moreton Bay to the east. Large wings were added to the house, and land to the property, about a year later.

Cameron's published work
In 1888, John Cameron wrote "The Fisherman: a guide to the inexperienced: how when and where to catch fish" while living at Doobawah. This was reportedly the first book written in Australia devoted to saltwater fishing.

Cameron also wrote "The fire stick: incidents in the shearers' strike: a tale of Australian bush life" under the pseudonym Wulla Merrii (published 1893).  He was a prolific correspondent to local publications in his later years.

Later years
Cameron died on 24 March 1902 at Doobawah, and is buried in the Toowong Cemetery. The Doobawah homestead was broken up and his sons moved the two wings. One wing went to the Holyrood Hospital on Gregory Terrace (later the Country Women's Hostel) and the other became part of St John's College in Kangaroo Point. Doobawah was subsequently sold to the Pike brothers, who used the property site as a poultry farm.  In 1993, the remaining section of Doobawah was moved 200 metres from its original position in Eckersley St. It is now surrounded by the Empire Point residential estate.

Cameron's legacy to the development of Southeast Queensland can be found in the pages of the Cameron Bros journals: a large proportion of Brisbane's property has passed through the family's hands since 1864. Perusal of the Cameron Bros ledgers, now held at the University of Queensland's Fryer Library, reveals a realtor's history of a growing state.

title: William Bigod

text:
William Bigod (died 25 November 1120), the heir to the Norfolk earldom, drowned in the disaster of the White Ship as she set sail from Normandy in 1120.  The ship also carried the son of the King of England Henry I, William Adelin, who also died. The succession of Henry I to the throne of England was secured not only by the mysterious death of his brother King William II Rufus but by the defeat of his eldest brother Robert Curthose, Duke of Normandy. The death of Henry's heir to the throne set in motion a succession crisis that lasted many years.

It was said that the crew and passengers had been drinking, whether by perfidy or incompetence, and thus the vessel and all those shining dreams of the English Romanesque were lost. Duke William of Normandy, in becoming King of England, introduced with great vigour the architecture of European society.  Probably William was the name given to the Bigod heir to honour his family's relationship to William the Conqueror.

Norman ties were broken on the ascendancy of Anjou to the English throne. William Bigod's father, Roger Bigod of Norfolk, the 1st Bigod Earl, Ralph de Breuilon (de Breton) was the 1st Earl of the Conquest.  Ralph de Breton had made a marriage contract between Norfolk and Hereford, without the King's consent. A civil war ensued which resulted in the Earldom of Norfolk being given to Roger, William Bigod's father. Roger had been an unknown hearth-knight to the Bishop of Bayeux.  We do not see Roger mentioned at the Conquest.  He was Sheriff of Suffolk from 1116.

William commissioned the church at South Lopham, considered one of the finest examples of Norman architecture in Norfolk.  William's younger brother Hugh succeeded to the Earldom. Arthur Mee states that Earl Hugh is stained with blood of the subsequent civil war, The Anarchy, which occurred between King Stephen and the Empress Matilda (or rather the Countess of Anjou and Normandy and daughter of Henry I). This arose as Earl Hugh was present at death of King Henry, and it was he who declared the King's change of will.  There are many factors to question the accuracy of this, but certainly Earl Hugh was the scapegoat for a situation, in truth, engineered by the thoughtless ambitions of King Henry I in so marrying his daughter to Geoffrey Plantagenet, Count of Anjou, the natural enemy of the Norman aristocracy.

title: Depression Quest

text:
Depression Quest is a 2013 interactive fiction game dealing with the subject of depression. It was developed by Zoë Quinn using the Twine engine, with writing by Quinn and Patrick Lindsey, and music by Isaac Schankler. It was first released for the web on February 14, 2013, and for Steam on August 11, 2014. The game tells the story of a person suffering from depression and their attempts to deal with their condition. It was created to foster a greater understanding of depression. Depression Quest can be played for free, and has a pay-what-you-want pricing model. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline receives part of the proceeds.

Depression Quest was praised by critics for its portrayal of depression and its educational value. The game was noted for diverging from mainstream uses of video games as a medium. Depression Quest received backlash from some gamers who disliked its departure from typical game formats and from other gamers who opposed "political" intrusions into gamer culture. Quinn received threats and harassment from people who disapproved of the game. False allegations that the game had received a positive review from a journalist in a relationship with Quinn around the time of the game's Steam release triggered the start of the Gamergate harassment campaign.

Gameplay

Depression Quest is an interactive fiction game, which presents descriptions of various situations and prompts the player to choose their response. In addition, most pages feature a set of still images and atmospheric music. The game has over 40,000 words of text, and multiple possible endings.

Players assume the role of a person suffering from depression, and the story centers on their daily life, including encounters at work and their relationship with their girlfriend. The story also features various treatments for depression. Players are periodically faced with choices that alter the course of the story. To make a choice, the player must click on the corresponding hyperlink. However, choices are often crossed out and cannot be clicked on, a mechanism that Depression Quest uses to portray the character's mental state and the fact that logical decisions may not be available to them. Beneath the choices presented to the player are a set of statements about the character, indicating their level of depression, whether or not they are in therapy, and whether or not they are currently on medication.

Development and release

The game was designed by Zoë Quinn and written by Quinn and Patrick Lindsey, both of whom have had depression. The soundtrack was composed by Isaac Schankler. Quinn and Lindsey started the project, with the aim of communicating how the mind of a depression sufferer functions. Quinn purposely designed the game's protagonist as someone with an outwardly happy and easy life, so as to "preëmpt the argument that someone is only depressed because they have a difficult life."

Depression Quest was first released online as a web browser game on February 14, 2013. Quinn also submitted the game through Steam's Greenlight program and consequently received disparaging comments and hate mail, causing them to withdraw the game from the service. After receiving positive feedback from players who had played the game and receiving an invitation to Indiecade, Quinn tried Greenlight again. They received further harassment, but felt that they could deal with the stress. "I thought, honestly, I could take the hate if it meant the game could reach somebody who would get something out of it, feel less alone," Quinn stated.

The game was accepted by Greenlight in January 2014, and was released on Steam in August that year. The day it was due to go live, news broke that actor Robin Williams had died from a suspected suicide. Quinn considered delaying the Steam release, as they did not want to be seen as taking advantage of Williams' death. They eventually decided to keep to the original release schedule, as Quinn thought that making the game available to those struggling with their own problems was more important than any negative publicity they might receive, writing, "I can't in good conscience hold back offering someone something that could help them start making real changes in their life for the sake of reducing the risk of offending people or hurting my own reputation."

The game uses a pay-what-you-want pricing model: it is free to play, but players can pay any amount they think is appropriate. Part of the proceeds from the game are sent to a charity – initially iFred, but this was later changed to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline after the game was released on Steam.

Reception

Depression Quest received mostly positive reviews from critics, who generally viewed it as not being intended for entertainment but for education. Jessica Vasquez, writing for Game Revolution, praised the game's portrayal of how sufferers are affected by depression, and expressed optimism in its potential to educate people about depression. Writing for Gizmag, Adam Williams called the experience of Depression Quest "dark and compelling". He added that he did not find the game fun to play, and that "it's certainly no Super Mario Brothers, but that's probably the point". Tim Biggs, writing for the Sydney Morning Herald, also stressed a lack of fun in the game, and went on to say that the game was "a testing and, at times, a boring experience to go through". However, he praised the game's execution, and acknowledged its importance as a tool for raising awareness of depression and for helping its sufferers. The game also received praise from mental health professionals.

Writing in Ars Technica, Kyle Orland called Depression Quest "one of the most gripping and educational views on the subject [of depression]". Adam Smith, in Rock, Paper, Shotgun, wrote that Depression Quest was "'game' as communication, comfort and tool of understanding". In Giant Bomb, Patrick Klepek praised Depression Quests writing, and said that "by the end, [he] was able to say [he] understood depression a bit better". He also warns players not to expect the game to be enjoyable, saying: "Playing Depression Quest isn't 'fun', like watching Schindler's List isn't 'enjoyable'. They're important for different reasons, and it's okay if they exist for the small audiences who will appreciate them as they are." Depression Quest designer Quinn also headed a Playboy article which featured several video games dealing directly with the subjective experience of depression, in which they noted "I'm very interested in games that aren't there to make the player feel exceptional."

Depression Quest faced backlash online from some gamers who disliked its departure from typical game formats emphasizing violence and skill, and who opposed "political" intrusions into gamer culture. The text-driven interior monologue style of the game was criticized as boring. Quinn has faced harassment in response to Depression Quest since the game's initial release. This intensified with the additional publicity the game received on Steam. Quinn initially withdrew the game from Steam's Greenlight service, after having a detailed rape threat mailed to their home address. When they brought Depression Quest back to Greenlight, Quinn began receiving threatening phone calls. In mid-August 2014, soon after the game's official Steam release, a former boyfriend of Quinn wrote a lengthy and negative blog post about their relationship. The post alleged that Quinn had been in a relationship with Nathan Grayson, who was then a video game journalist for Kotaku. Opponents of Quinn claimed that Grayson had given Depression Quest a positive review as a result of this relationship. Investigations proved this to be false: Grayson had at no point reviewed Depression Quest. These false accusations against Quinn sparked what would later be known as the Gamergate harassment campaign. Quinn was subjected to wide-scale harassment, the game's profile page was flooded with what The New Yorker described as "angry user reviews", and reviews for the game were temporarily disabled. The Daily Dot reported that 4chan's video game board had bombarded the game's Metacritic page with negative reviews.

title: End of an Empire

text:
End of an Empire is the third vocal studio album (fifth overall) from electronic rock project Celldweller. It was released in "chapters", like most of Celldweller's previous works. The first of four chapters, Time, was released on September 16, 2014. The second, Love, was released on December 5, 2014. The third, Dreams, was released on March 13, 2015. The fourth and final chapter, Death, was released on July 17, 2015. The full album was released on November 6, 2015.

Concept
End of an Empire is a concept album, set in the world of "Atiria". The narrative focuses on "The Emperor", who is dealing with a failing civilization, brought about by conflict between "Pro-bots" and "Robophobes". Other characters are introduced in each chapter; "Overseer", "Siren", "Dreamcatcher" and "Gatekeeper" (in that order). Other locations include "Deltar", a city within Atiria, and "Helion", home to the "XR-87 Prison System". Currently, little is known about the relationships between the characters and locations, leading to much speculation. According to Klayton, the album is not a follow-up to Wish Upon a Blackstar.

Production and release
Production of the album started around late 2012, almost directly after the release of Wish Upon a Blackstar, and was formally announced in an update on February 26, 2013. In the update, Klayton stated that "Purified" had been completed and would go towards the then untitled album, though it was instead released on Blackstar Act One: Purified in December that year.

When asked in an April episode of "Ask Celldweller", he stated the upcoming album would be released in chapters, though he did not give a title or a release date, nor any insight into the album's progress.

A few months later, throughout July and August, three snippets were posted onto Klayton's Instagram, they all come from the same song, "End of an Empire", that had been previously mentioned.

Any further news on the upcoming album was sparse until August 6, when a series of images on Celldweller's Facebook page implied a new Celldweller release, this was confirmed on the 12th when one of these images, which previously contained four empty imprints, was reuploaded, containing a blue emblem representing "Time", implying the new release would be split into four chapters, each with individual titles. The new image also confirmed the name of the release as End of an Empire.

Chapter 01: Time
On August 14, the artwork and a teaser trailer were released for End of an Empire - Chapter 01: Time, pre-orders went live the same day, though no previews were released. Time consists of five tracks, including "End of an Empire", the previously unmentioned "Lost In Time", and three sound design-oriented tracks, "Factions", but also contains four remixes (of "End of an Empire" and "Lost In Time") and six instrumentals. Time was released on September 16, 2014.

The title track, "End of an Empire" was announced as the first single off the album, in another trailer released on August 27, the single was released on September 2 to those who have already pre-ordered and was premiered through Revolver magazine. The next song that was premiered was "Lost in Time" through Loudwire. Time was released on September 16, 2014.

Chapter 02: Love
On November 19, a distorted version of the emblem sequence was uploaded, the next day, another emblem was revealed; a red heart that represents Love.

On November 20, a teaser trailer was uploaded to Celldweller's YouTube and Facebook for Chapter 02 of End of an Empire, entitled Love. Pre-orders were made available on the FiXT store that same day, while iTunes pre-orders were available the following day. The album included three more "Faction" tracks, two songs entitled "Down to Earth" and "Heart On", a clean version of "Heart On", five remixes, and instrumentals for all but two tracks. On November 26, "Down To Earth" was released early as the second single off the album. Love was released on December 5, 2014.

Chapter 03: Dreams
On February 18, the Celldweller Facebook page was, once again, blacked out, the next day, the emblem sequence was reuploaded with a distorted green emblem, mere hours later, a trailer was released for Chapter 03, entitled Dreams, and pre-orders went live.

The album includes three more "Factions", two songs, "Good L_ck (Yo_'re F_cked)" and "Just Like You", four remixes, eight instrumentals and a clean version of "Good L_ck (Yo_'re F_cked)", Dreams was released on March 13, 2015.

As an extra bonus, Klayton shed some light on the inspiration & creation of Good L_ck, Yo_’re F_cked:
"Chapter 03 has probably been the most fun I’ve had making the album so far. The biggest reason being I wrote “Good L_ck (Yo_’re F_cked) as someone else. What does that exactly mean? Friend and colleague Grant Mohrman and I have been working on a movie script. The story revolves around an individual who fronts an electronic punk rock band. Although that aspect of the story no longer exists, I wrote this song before we scrapped that idea. I was envisioning a song that would open the entire movie, including lyrics that applied to the premise of the film. It’s rare for me to write an entire song in a day, but that’s what happened with G.L.Y.F. – because I took a moment to shed the concept of being Celldweller and instead wrote from the perspective of someone else. Then I reproduced the song from the ground up and it became a Celldweller track that naturally fits alongside everything else in the End of an Empire universe."

Chapter 04: Death
The fourth and final chapter, titled "Death", was released on July 17, 2015.

title: Generaloberstabsarzt

text:
and  are the top Joint Medical Service OF8-ranks of the German . The equivalent to this ranks in the Heer is Generalleutnant and in the German Navy the Vizeadmiral.

Bundeswehr
In accordance with traditions in German armed forces, both ranks might be used in Bundeswehr medical service. Normally the Bundeswehr Surgeon General of the medical service (de: Inspekteur des Sanitätsdienstes), or the Chief of Medical Operation´s Command (de: Kommandeur Sanitätsführungskommando) might be assigned. However, in future the Chief position might remain vacant, because the Deputy Surgeon General is mandated to command the Medical Operation´s Command.

Equivalent to that three-star ranks (NATO-Rangcode OF-8) are Generalleutnant ("Lieutenant general") of the Heer or Luftwaffe, and the Vizeadmiral (en: Vice admiral) of the Marine.

Address
The manner of formal addressing of military surgeons with the rank  (OF-6, one-star rank),  (OF-7, two-star rank) or  is, "Herr/Frau Generalarzt". At the other hand, military surgeons with the rank  (OF-6, one-star rank),  (OF-7, two-star rank) or  is, "Herr/Frau Admiralarzt". Although the grammatically female form of Arzt is Ärztin, the military does not have separate gendered ranks, so the correct form of address for a female doctor is "Frau Stabsarzt".

Rank insignias
On the shoulder straps (Heer, Luftwaffe) there are three golden stars in golden oak leaves and the career insignia (de: Laufbahnabzeichen) as symbol of the medical standing, or course of studies. Regarding the Marine, the career insignia is in the middle of both sleeves, three centimeters above the cuff strips, and on the shoulder straps between strips and button.

Wehrmacht

The General of the branch grade Generaloberstabsarzt was the most senior ranks of the medical service of the German Wehrmacht 1933 to 1945.

Siegfried Handloser was assigned to Generaloberstabsarzt of the Wehrmacht. He was simultaneous "Chief of the Wehrmachts Medical Service in Supreme Command of the Wehrmacht" (Chef des Wehrmachtsanitätswesens im Oberkommando der Wehrmacht) as of July 28, 1942. Curt Schulze was Generaloberstabveterinär of the Wehrmacht.

Comparative ranks
Generaloberstabsarzt of the Wehrmacht was comparable to the General of the branch (OF8, three stars), as well as to the Obergruppenführer and General of the Waffen-SS.

In line to the so-called Reichsbesoldungsordnung (en: Reich's salary order), appendixes to the Salary law of the German Empire (de: Besoldungsgesetz des Deutschen Reiches) of 1927 (changes 1937 – 1940), the comparative ranks were as follows: C 1

General of the branch (Heer and Luftwaffe)
Admiral (Kriegsmarine)
Generaloberstabsarzt, from 1934 (medical service of the Wehrmacht)
Generaloberstabsveterinär, from 1934 (veterinarian service of the Wehrmacht)

title: Ambrose Lam

text:
Ambrose Lam San-keung (; born August 1961) is a Hong Kong solicitor who served as the member of Legislative Council, representing Legal constituency. He previously served as president of the Law Society of Hong Kong from 2013 until his resignation in 2014. He is known for his pro-Beijing political stance. He gained widespread attention from the Hong Kong media in 2014, when he made numerous controversial comments supporting the 2014 Hong Kong electoral reform consultation and the Chinese Communist Party. He resigned as the President of the Law Society of Hong Kong on 19 August 2014 after a motion of no confidence was passed against him by members of the Law Society Council on 14 August 2014.

Lam has served as a member of the Law Society Council since 2004. He also led 12 candidates to participate in the 2011 Hong Kong Election Committee Subsector elections, all of which are council members, though all of them failed to get a seat.

Controversial remarks
As president of the Society of Hong Kong, Lam made some controversial remarks which are said to have angered many members of the Council.

Views towards the Chinese Communist Party
When asked his views on the Chinese Communist Party, the sole governing and ruling political party of the People's Republic of China, Lam expressed his admiration towards the party, describing it as "great", citing the party's ability in "guiding China into a new era" and transforming mainland China into one of the world's superpowers over the last few decades. His views sparked widespread criticism from the legal sector.

Views towards Beijing's controversial White Paper
When asked his views on the controversial White Paper issued by the Central People's Government, which called for Hong Kong judges to be patriotic and included judges as "administrators" of the HKSAR, Lam stated that the requirement for judges to be patriotic did not undermine the rule of law, and that he saw no problem in regarding the judiciary as being part of the government's "administrators". His views sparked widespread criticism from the legal sector, of which many believed that the judiciary should not be counted as part of the administration due to Hong Kong's separation of powers. Hong Kong's former Chief Justice of the Court of Final Appeal, Andrew Li, expressed "great concern" towards Lam's comments, commenting that judges should not be pro or anti anyone under the principle of judicial independence. In response to this allegation, Lam stated that judicial independence will not be compromised if judges are required to be patriotic.

Other controversies

Refusal to answer questions in English
On 5 May 2014, in a press conference on 2014 Hong Kong electoral reform consultation, then-President of the Law Society Ambrose Lam was asked about the Council's views towards the “love your country” requirement for Chief Executive Candidates in the 2017 Hong Kong Chief Executive election by a TVB Pearl News reporter in English. Lam, however, refused to answer the reporter's question in English, saying that "he already provided the answer in Chinese", and that "the reporters can translate it (his answers in Chinese) into English". His refusal to answer questions in English despite his fluency in English has resulted in widespread criticism. As a result of the incident, Lam was nicknamed "clown" by some of his critics, and has led to questions about Hong Kong's status as an Asia’s World City.

Legislative Council
Lam said that there should be a blanket ban on all overseas lawyers from taking part in national security cases, after Jimmy Lai was blocked from hiring Tim Owen.

title: Bréguet 1100

text:
The Bréguet 1100 was a twin-engine French light fighter also suitable for ground-attack and built for the French armed forces. First flown in 1957, only one was completed as budget cuts led to cancellation of the programme.

Design and development
The single-engine Bréguet 1001 Taon was designed and built for a NATO fast ground-attack fighter competition. The Bréguet 1100 was a development designed instead to a French Ministère de l'Air () specification, which called for two engines and a pressurised cockpit in an aircraft performing a similar role. The 1100 flew before the Taon, as the latter was delayed to incorporate the new area rule late in its construction.

The Bréguet 1100 was built entirely from bonded alloy and included many honeycomb structures. Its swept wing was about 15% greater in span and 35% greater in area than that of the Taon, though it was intended that production Taons would share the 1100's wing.  The 1100 had broad chord, short-span ailerons and narrow, long-span flaps with spoilers in front of them. The two types had similar side air intakes but the 1100's twin mid-fuselage engines and jet pipes meant that the fuselage was broader and lacked any area rule waisting, as well as being rather longer. They also shared similar swept, straight-edged tail surfaces, cockpits in the nose with narrow fairings running over the length of the upper fuselage and tricycle landing gear.

Sixteen different armament packages were available, including four 12.7 mm (0.5 in) Browning machine guns, two  DEFA cannon, 35 Matra unguided rockets or a pack of fifteen  SNEB 22 rockets.

The 1100 first flew on 31 March 1957, exceeding Mach 1. This first prototype was the only one to fly as the second was abandoned when 80% complete and an ordered third prototype, a navalized version designated 1100M, was not begun. Before mid-1959 the Bréguet 1100 programme had been cancelled due to government spending cuts.

Variants
Bréguet 1100 First two prototypes, second unfinished.
Bréguet 1100M Navalized third prototype: not built.

title: List of kosher restaurants

text:
This is a list of notable kosher restaurants. A kosher restaurant is an establishment that serves food that complies with Jewish dietary laws (kashrut). These businesses, which also include diners, cafés, pizzerias, fast food, and cafeterias, and are frequently in listings together with kosher bakeries, butchers, caterers, and other similar places, differ from kosher-style establishments, which offer traditionally Jewish foods made from non-kosher ingredients (i.e., Katz's Delicatessen is kosher-style, meaning they sell all-beef frankfurters made from non-kosher beef).

Kosher restaurants typically operate under rabbinical supervision, which requires that kashrut, as well as certain other Jewish laws, must be observed.

title: Henry John Sylvester Stannard

text:
Henry John Sylvester Stannard  (12 July 1870 – 21 January 1951) was a British watercolour artist whose patrons included the British Royal Family.

Life
Henry John Sylvester Stannard , also known as Harry Stannard and professionally as H. Sylvester Stannard, was born in London on 12 July 1870, the son of Henry Stannard, a sporting painter, and Ruth (née Willsher).

Stannard and his father descended from a family of well known Bedfordshire artists that included his sisters Lilian Stannard and Emily Stannard.  He was educated at Bedford Modern School, and the National Art Training School in South Kensington. He was elected to the RBA in 1896 remaining a member until 1909.

He exhibited fifteen works at the Royal Academy (including “The Old Homestead”, “The Trees Began to Whisper” and “The Trysting Lane”), the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours, the New Gallery, the Royal Society of British Artists and the Royal Cambrian Academy of Art.

In 1906 Stannard was honoured by Queen Alexandra with a commission for a number of pictures including Her Majesty’s Wild Garden and Woods at Sandringham.

title: Vimalananda

text:
Vimalananda (also called Khagen Maharaj) (1872–1908) was an Indian spiritual writer who was one of the monastic disciples of Vivekananda and an early monk of the Ramakrishna Order. He was involved in the publication of Prabuddha Bharata. He was actively involved in running day-to-day operations of the Advaita Ashrama at Mayavati during the early days of the Ashrama. He also inaugurated the Ramakrishna Math at Ulsoor in Bangalore in 1906. He died in 1908 at the Mayavati Ashrama.

Early life
Vimlananda was born Khagendranath Chatterjee in a Hindu Brahmin family in 1872. His father, Benimadhav Chatterjee, was an engineer. His cousin Haripada Chatterjee, later Bodhananda, was also a monastic disciple of Vivekananda. He was interested in philosophy and spirituality from an early age and by the time he joined Ripon College, he was the leader of a group actively pursuing a spiritual life. Also in the group was Kalikrishna, later Virajananda, another monastic disciple of Vivekananda and a president of the Belur Math.

In 1890, he passed his matriculation examination and won a scholarship. He continued with his First Arts studies at Ripon College.

Monastic beginnings
Khagen was initiated to Ramakrishna's ideals by reading a collection of his teachings by Sureshchandra Dutta and a biography of Ramakrishna by Ram Chandra Datta. They visited Kankurgachhi Yogodyan on the occasion of celebrating Ramakrishna's birth festival by Ramchandra Dutta. In Ripon College he came in close contact with Mahendranath Gupta, (called "M"), the author of Sri Sri Ramakrishna Kathamrita, who was then a professor in the same college. M inspired them to visit the monastic disciples of Ramakrishna in Baranagar Math.
In 1892, he went to Jayrambati and met Sarada Devi. He was later initiated by her into spiritual life. He gave up his studies on account of poor health and spent more time in the monastery in the company of the disciples of Sri Ramakrishna.

Monastic life
In 1897, he met Vivekananda when the latter returned from the West and became a disciple. In 1898, he was sent to Mayavati to manage the affairs of the Advaita Ashrama. Vimalananda joined Swami Virajananda as one of the workers of the Mayavati Ashrama. Swami Vivekananda was full of praise for Vimalananda's command of English language. He was involved in editing Prabuddha Bharata. Vimalananda became engaged in work as well as spiritual practices. His health, which was generally sickly, improved in the hilly climate. Swami Vivekananda visited Mayavati in 1901 after the demise of Capt. Sevier. During this period a small shrine was set up by Vimalananda and others for worshiping Sri Ramakrishna with rituals, flowers, incense and other offerings. Swami Vivekananda disapproved of ritualistic worship in Advaita Ashrama which was in his ideal a non-dualistic institution.
Vimalananda wrote to the Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi seeking her opinion in this matter. However, she confirmed that Advaitism was the highest ideal of the Ramakrishna Order, that every member of the order was Advaitin and what Swami Vivekananda did or said in this matter was right. Vimalananda's doubts were thus put to rest.

He came to Allahabad together with his brother disciple Swami Swarupananda and gave some lectures on Vedanta. He came back to Mayavati as his health broke down. He went to Chennai to stay with Swami Ramakrishnananda for a few months. He went to Bangalore to help Swami Atmananda (Shukul Maharaj) helping him run the newly-established Bangalore Ashrama. In 1906 Swami Swarupananda died. Vimalananda therefore returned to Belur Math and turned down offers to visit Vedanta Societies of New York and San Francisco. In the later part of 1906 he returned to Mayavati with Mrs. Sevier. Returning there, he started editing the Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda.

Illness and death
In February 1908 Vimalananda was found to have tuberculosis which was then incurable.

After a brief illness he died on 24 July 1908. Eulogizing him after his death, Swami Saradananda, the then secretary of Belur Math wrote in Udbodhan,
Oh Man! Will you be able to comprehend this offering by a faithful and devoted disciple of his heart's blood to the lotus feet of his chosen Ideal, this offering of spontaneous love completely devoid of selfish motive or hope of reward, his silent and unassuming worship from his heart away from the public gaze?
