title: The Lives of a Bengal Lancer (book)

text:
The Lives of a Bengal Lancer is a 1930 autobiography of British cavalry officer Francis Yeats-Brown published by The Viking Press. The autobiography's release was met with highly positive reviews and Yeats-Brown was awarded the James Tait Black Memorial Prize of 1930.

In 1935, the book was made into a Hollywood blockbuster by the same name starring Gary Cooper, Franchot Tone, Richard Cromwell. The film was nominated for seven Academy Awards including Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Picture. The film does not follow the plot of the book.

Plot
In 1905, Francis Yeats-Brown, then a young cavalryman, arrives in Bengal to serve in the 17th Bengal Lancers on the Northwest Frontier of British India. He quickly discovers that life in the presence of his fellow soldiers is anything but boring. When not on active duty, he spends his time riding horses around the countryside, hunting boars, smoking tobacco and studying Indian mysticism. He sees active service in France in 1914 and becomes a military air observer in Mesopotamia in 1915. He eventually becomes a prisoner of war of the Ottoman Empire and makes unsuccessful attempts at escape. Yeats-Brown returns to India in 1919, continues to serve in the Cavalry and continues to study Yoga.

title: Seeing Like a State

text:
Seeing Like a State: How Certain Schemes to Improve the Human Condition Have Failed is a book by James C. Scott critical of a system of beliefs he calls high modernism, that centers on governments' overconfidence in the ability to design and operate society in accordance with purported scientific laws.

The book makes an influential argument that states seek to force "legibility" on their subjects by homogenizing them and creating standards that simplify pre-existing, natural, diverse social arrangements. Examples include the introduction of last names, censuses, uniform languages, and standard units of measurement. While intended to facilitate state control and economies of scale, Scott argues that the eradication of local differences and silencing of local expertise can have adverse effects.

The book was first published in March 1998, with a paperback version in February 1999.

Summary

Scott shows how central governments attempt to force legibility on their subjects, and fail to see complex, valuable forms of local social order and knowledge. A main theme of this book, illustrated by his historic examples, is that states operate systems of power toward 'legibility' in order to see their subjects correctly in a top-down, modernist, model that is flawed, problematic, and often ends poorly for subjects. The goal of local legibility by the state is transparency from the top down, from the top of the tower or the center/seat of the government, so the state can effectively operate upon their subjects.

The book uses examples like the introduction of permanent last names in Great Britain, cadastral surveys in France, and standard units of measure across Europe to argue that a reconfiguration of social order is necessary for state scrutiny, and requires the simplification of pre-existing, natural arrangements. While, in earlier times, a field could be measured in the amount of cows it could sustain or the types of plants it could grow, post centralization, its size is measured in hectares. This allows governors who have little to no local knowledge to immediately understand the outline of the area but simultaneously blinds the state to the complex interactions which happen within nature and society. In agriculture and forestry, for example, it led to monoculture, or the sole focus on cultivating a single crop or tree at the cost of all others. While monoculture is easy to measure, manage, and understand, it is also less resilient to ecological crises than polyculture is.

In the case of last names, Scott cites a Welsh man who appeared in court and identified himself with a long string of patronyms: "John, ap Thomas ap William" etc. In his local village, this naming system carried a lot of information, because people could identify him as the son of Thomas and grandson of William, and thus distinguish him from the other Johns, the other children of Thomas, and the other grandchildren of William. Yet it was of less use to the central government, which did not know Thomas or William. The court demanded that John take a permanent last name (in this case, the name of his village). This helped the central government keep track of its subjects, at the cost of a more nuanced yet fuzzy and less legible understanding of local conditions.

Schemes that successfully improve human lives, Scott argues, must take into account local conditions, and that the high-modernist ideologies of the 20th century have prevented this. He highlights collective farms in the Soviet Union, the building of Brasilia, and forced villagization in 1970s Tanzania as examples of failed schemes which were led by top-down bureaucratic efforts and where officials ignored or silenced local expertise.

Scott takes great effort to highlight that he is not necessarily anti-state. At times, the central role played by the state is necessary in order to carry out programs such as disaster response or vaccinations. The flattening of knowledge which goes hand-in-hand with state centralization can have disastrous consequences when officials see centralised knowledge as the only legitimate information that they should consider, ignoring more specialised but less clearly defined indigenous and local expertise.

Reception

Book reviews
Stanford University political scientist David D. Laitin described it as "a magisterial book." But he said there were flaws in the methodology of the book, saying the book "is a product of undisciplined history. For one, Scott’s evidence is selective and eclectic, with only minimal attempts to weigh disconfirming evidence... It is all too easy to select confirming evidence if the author can choose from the entire historical record and use material from all countries of the world."

John Gray, author of False Dawn: The Delusions of Global Capitalism, reviewed the book favorably for the New York Times, concluding: "Today's faith in the free market echoes the faith of earlier generations in high modernist schemes that failed at great human cost. Seeing Like a State does not tell us what it is in late modern societies that predisposes them, against all the evidence of history, to put their trust in such utopias. Sadly, no one knows enough to explain that."

Economist Brad DeLong wrote a detailed online review of the book. DeLong's interpretation of the book was critiqued by Henry Farrell on the Crooked Timber blog, and there was a follow-up exchange including further discussion of the book.

Economist Deepak Lal reviewed the book for the Summer 2000 issue of The Independent Review, concluding: "Although I am in sympathy with Scott’s diagnosis of the development disasters he recounts, I conclude that he has not burrowed deep enough to discover a systematic cause of these failures. (In my view, that cause lies in the continuing attraction of various forms of 'enterprises' in what at heart remains Western Christendom.) Nor is he right in so blithely dismissing the relevance of classical liberalism in finding remedies for the ills he eloquently describes."

Political scientist Ulf Zimmermann reviewed the book for H-Net Online in December 1998, concluding: "It is important to keep in mind, as Scott likewise notes, that many of these projects replaced even worse social orders and at least occasionally introduced somewhat more egalitarian principles, never mind improving public health and such. And, in the end, many of the worst were sufficiently resisted in their absurdity, as he had shown so well in his, Weapons of the Weak and as best demonstrated by the utter collapse of the soviet system. "Metis" alone is not sufficient; we need to find a way to link it felicitously with—to stick with Scott's Aristotelian vocabulary—phronesis and praxis, or, in more ordinary terms, to produce theories more profoundly grounded in actual practice so that the state may see better in implementing policies."

Michael Adas of Rutgers University reviewed the book for the Summer 2000 issue of the Journal of Social History.

Russell Hardin, a professor of politics at New York University, reviewed the book for The Good Society in 2001, disagreeing with Scott's diagnosis somewhat. Hardin, who believes in collectiveness (collective actions) concluded: "The failure of collectivization was therefore a failure of incentives, not a failure to rely on local knowledge."

Discussions
The September 2010 issue of Cato Unbound was devoted to discussing the themes of the book. Scott wrote the lead essay. Other participants were Donald Boudreaux, Timothy B. Lee, and J. Bradford DeLong. A number of people, including Henry Farrell and Tyler Cowen, weighed in on the discussion on their own blogs.

title: Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e

text:
Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e is a rare antique Japanese woodblock print art series.

The series title

The title of the Ukiyo-e print series Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e translates into English as The Flowers of Edo: A Collection of Famous Places. The Flowers of Edo was a phrase used to describe the finest features of everyday life, as experienced in the various districts of Japan’s Tokugawa capital during the mid-nineteenth century. Included within the scope of the expression were select examples of incredible outdoor beauty, inspirational models of ancient cultural accomplishment and brilliant cases of contemporary creative excellence. The Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e works display images of famous Kabuki actors, illustrations of natural landscapes and important visions of celebrated Japanese myths and legends. The prints also present classical songs and poetry, advertisements for popular commercial products of the day and historical accounts that are associated with each of the locations being examined.

A collaboration of artists

Twenty-one notable artists of the Ukiyo-e era, led by Utagawa Kunisada (also known as Utagawa Toyokuni III), designed the full complement of prints for the Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e series. It is Kunisada's enduring commitment to the work, indicated by his Kabuki actor designs featuring on every sheet in the set, as well as the huge number of contributing illustrators, that distinguishes the project as one of the most significant artist collaborations completed within Japan’s greater art history.

Production period and print design total

The first prints of the Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e series were released by the publisher Katoya Seibei in the twelfth month of 1862, while the last sheets of the set were produced in the first month of 1865. In the two years and two months in which the works were designed and manufactured, seventy prints in total had been created, followed by an index and title page. The index and title pieces are not universally accepted as part of the Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e series. Hesitation to acknowledge the extra pages is based on the reality that both were made after the picture set had ceased production, at a time when it was popular for the collected single sheet works to be assembled in string-bound albums. Additionally, Kunisada did not contribute to the creation of the two supplementary items and inconsequentially the index page lists the works of the series in an ancient Japanese alphabetical arrangement, rather than in an order determined by date of production.

The series unfinished

Although the Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e series concluded with the substantial number of seventy prints having been created, it is likely that the set was originally planned to consist of at least one hundred pieces. This notion is supported by evidence found within the text of one of the works. In the print titled Shinkawa, dated to the eighth month of 1863, the publisher addresses patrons directly, referring to the new edition of one hundred picture prints called Edo-no-Hana. This reference was made at a time when only thirty-three sheets in the series had been completed. It is therefore probable that the project was to continue throughout 1865, instead of finishing abruptly within the first month of that year. The reason for the sudden halt to the production of the set may have been Kunisada's death on 12 January 1865, thereby ending any hope of achieving the proposed one hundred print goal. With the series left unfinished and abandoned, it is significant that three of its final works, those dated to the first month of 1865, are among the last prints to be conceived by the great Ukiyo-e master.

Print format

The Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e prints were produced in a format known as harimaze. Harimaze works were usually designed by one or two artists and featured images divided into several sections. They were generally unrelated pictures on the one page that were made to be individually cut up and used as decoration. The Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e works exhibited designs in defined section portions, each predominantly created by a specific artist, but had a different objective to standard harimaze compositions. With up to five illustrators working on separate pieces of a single sheet, each of the image segments displayed related to the others by presenting various aspects of the one key topic area. Typically divided into five distinct parts, with some exceptions to be found, prints of the Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e series contain: (1) a Title Section, (2) a portion displaying an image of the relevant location, labelled a Meisho Scene, (3) a segment that illustrates a story concerning the area, identified as a Meisho Tale, (4) a picture of a Kabuki Actor that relates to the district and, (5) a Margin Information zone, which presents important data concerning the print’s production, such as the publisher’s name, a carver’s name and a government censor seal. Making use of the harimaze-style format from beginning to end, the Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e set also included some special prints produced in popular multi-sheet arrangements. Responding to public demand for such compositions at the time, the seventy works of the series came to incorporate three diptyches, one triptych and one rare four-sheet tetraptych.

Word play

An entertaining feature of the Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e prints is the use of double meanings, which often relate to place names, within the text that accompanies many of the famous landscape scenes. It is also notable that puns and dual interpretations can be found in some of the signed alternate names used by the artists and within the title of the series itself. The phrase, "Flowers of Edo" was not only a metaphor for the finest aspects of the day, but also a colloquial expression used to describe the fires that often threatened an urban Edo environment, constructed predominantly of wood and paper. The reference to the constant threat of flames in the city is also reinforced in each of the prints, by the display of the troop name, number and emblem of the firemen responsible for protecting the relevant Edo district pictured. Moreover, as fire-fighters were admired as great examples of enthusiasm and bravery, they were likely considered as much a "Flower of Edo" as any popular Kabuki actor or fashionable Ukiyo-e print artist of the period.

The significance of the series

The Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e series is a sophisticated instrument of ancient Japanese artistic and literary display. It is a body of work that chronicles the material and intellectual concerns of late Edo period Japan, not more than a few short years before it was irreversibly changed by the extensive social reforms of the Western-influenced Meiji Restoration. Of great interest is the rare blending of all known major Ukiyo-e print subject categories within the confines of one work. Never before had Japan experienced a more successful integration of images of Kabuki actors, landscapes, warriors, myths and beautiful women, as was able to be seen in the Edo-no-Hana Meisho-e series. The project is also a means to explore something of the relationships between print artists of the time and with twenty-one contributing illustrators, stands as the largest collaborative creative enterprise ever completed within Japan’s Ukiyo-e art history. In particular it presents a progressive generous quality to the nature of Kunisada and exhibits rare works created by him in his final days. Recognising Kunisada as the senior artist of the series, it is important to note that print sections of a similar size to his own, designed by comparatively junior artists, were displayed on the same sheet as if created by equals. This was no doubt an intentional practice, either initiated or endorsed by Kunisada, which served to validate some of his rising students and the pupils of other great print masters, as a new generation of independent artists.

title: French brig Néarque (1804)

text:
The French brig Néarque was an Abeille-class brig launched at Lorient in  1804. She made a voyage to the Caribbean in 1805. After the frigate HMS Niobe captured her in March 1806, the Royal Navy took her into Plymouth, but laid her up in ordinary. She then disappears from the records until her sale in 1814.

French career
From June 1803 lieutenant de vaisseau Jean-Philippe-Paul Jourdain remained at Lorient to supervise the construction of Néarque. He would remain her commander until the British captured her.

On 27 April 1805, Jourdain and Néarque captured the British 16-gun brig Heros after an engagement that lasted half an hour and in which Jourdain sustained two wounds.

Between early September 1805 and end-December, Néarque carried dispatches from Lorient to Martinique and back, then troops from Belle Île to Lorient, patrolled the southern coast of Brittany, and escorted a convoy from Lorient to Bénodet, returning to Lorient. Then in February 1806, she sailed from Groix to Concarneau.

Capture and fate
On 28 March a French squadron composed of the two 40-gun frigates Revanche, Commodore Amand Leduc, and Guerrière, Captain Paul-Mathieu Hubert, 36-gun frigate Sirène, Captain Alexandre Lambert, and Néarque, sailed from Lorient, on a cruise off the coast of Iceland, Greenland, and Spitzbergen, for the purpose of destroying British and Russian whaling ships. It quickly became evident that Néarque was a far worse sailer than the frigates and that she could not follow; Leduc detached her so that she would carry out her orders independently.

At about 10a.m. Niobe, Captain John Wentworth Loring, cruising between the Glénans and the isle of Groix, discovered the French squadron. He followed and at 10p.m. was able to capture the sternmost, which was Nearque. He reported that she had 97 men on board and stores and provisions for a five-month cruise. James reports that although Nearque made signals, the three French frigates continued on their mission, leaving her to her fate. Furthermore, she surrendered after a volley of small arms fire from Niobe that "fortunately injured no one".

Lloyd's List reported Nearques arrival at Plymouth, and gave her complement as 103 men. It further reported that  and Niobe had continued in pursuit of the rest of the French squadron.

Nearque arrived in Plymouth on 3 April 1806. The Royal Navy never commissioned her; instead, the Admiralty placed her in ordinary. The commissioners of the Navy put her up for sale at Plymouth in July 1814. She sold there on 21 July for £400.

title: Johann Friedrich Naue

text:
Johann Friedrich Naue (November 17, 1787 in Halle (Saale) – May 19, 1858 in Halle) was a German composer, organist, and choir director and music-theorist. He was a student of Ludwig van Beethoven and Daniel Gottlob Turk and Carl Friedrich Zelter.  He composed both secular and spiritual music, and is known for reforming Protestant liturgical music in romantic-era Germany.

Naue studied music in Berlin.  Along with Felix Mendelssohn, Naue took lessons from Carl Friedrich Zelter.  Zelter exposed him to the music of Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frederic Handel.  In 1808, he returned to Halle to study with Daniel Gottlob Türk.  In 1815 Naue became a member of the Halle Masonic Lodge "of the three swords" along with Türk and Carl Loewe.

Naue went to Vienna to study briefly with Ludwig van Beethoven.  On November 23, 1823 Beethoven dedicated his three-part canon "Kurz ist der Schmerz", WoO 163, to Naue.  The text "Kurz ist der Schmerz und ewig ist die Freude" ("Brief is the pain and forever is the joy"), is from The Maid of Orleans by Friedrich von Schiller, the same poet who wrote the text for Beethoven's "Ode to Joy."

In 1829, Naue sold all of his books and spent all of his inheritance in order to finance a music festival in Halle.  The festival was an economic failure that drove Naue to alcoholism.  In 1833 he was fired as head of the singing academy he created.  In 1835 he was fired as organist of the "Market Church of Our Lady."  He eventually went blind and died in poverty in 1858.

While Naue was a well-regarded composer and theorist in his own time, his music is now rarely played. Nevertheless, Naue was a prolific composer of piano, organ, choral, and orchestral music.  He often composed commissioned occasional or festive music, such as military and triumphal marches for the Prussian army.

title: Warrior Run (West Branch Susquehanna River tributary)

text:
Warrior Run (also known as Warrior Run Creek) is a tributary of the West Branch Susquehanna River in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, in the United States. It is  in length. It has a watershed area of 21.6 square miles and the watershed is in Northumberland and Lycoming Counties. The main soil series in the watershed is the Berks-Weikert-Bedington series and the main land uses are agriculture and forest. The communities of Watsontown, Turbotville, and McEwensville are all in or near the watershed. The Warrior Run watershed was inhabited by Europeans in the early 1770s. Several mills and forts were built along it.

Course
Warrior Run begins in northeastern Delaware Township, in the Muncy Hills, not far from the border between Northumberland County and Lycoming County. It flows southwards, paralleling Interstate 180. As the stream leaves the Muncy Hills, it briefly passes through the western part of Lewis Township and goes under Pennsylvania Route 54. It flows near the Warrior Run High School and the community of Warrior Run before turning southwest and returning to Delaware Township. It then continues southwest past McEwensville, flows under Interstate 180, and continues west, paralleling Pennsylvania Route 44. The stream eventually crosses under Pennsylvania Route 44 and Pennsylvania Route 45 before emptying into the West Branch Susquehanna River near the southern edge of Watsontown.

Tributaries
The tributaries of Warrior Run are all unnamed tributaries.

Geology
The Warrior Run watershed is located in the Appalachian Mountain section of the ridge-and-valley geographic region. The highest part of the watershed is the northern part, where the Muncy Hills are situated. The stream's source is  higher than its mouth.

Thirty-five percent of the rocks in the upper reaches of the Warrior Run watershed are interbedded sedimentary rocks. These largely consist of the Hamilton Group, the Onondaga Formation, and the Old Port Formation Undivided. The remaining 65% of the rocks are sandstone and shale, mainly belonging to the Trimmers Rock Formation and the Wills Creek Formation. The Trimmers Rock Formation occurs in the entire northern part of the watershed. The Hamilton Group occurs in the central part of the watershed. Continuing southward, the next formation is the Old Port Formation Undivided, followed by the Keyser and Tonoloway Formation Undivided and then the Wills Creek Formation. The Bloomsburg and Mifflintown Formation Undivided occupies the southwestern corner of the watershed.

The most common soil series in the Warrior Run watershed is the Berks-Weikert-Bedington series, which is a shaly silt loam. The Watson-Berks-Alvira series and the Hagerstown-Edom-Washington series are also common within the watershed. The Berks-Weikert-Bedington series occurs throughout the northern and southern parts of the watershed and the Watson-Berks-Alvira series occurs in the northern and central parts. The Hagerstown-Edom-Washington series occurs in the central part of the watershed. The Chenango-Pope-Holly series is found in the southwestern corner of the watershed and the Leck Kill-Minersville-Calvin series is found in the eastern part of the watershed.

There is significant soil erosion along the banks of Warrior Run.

Hydrology
The total load of sediment in Warrior Run is  per day. A 10% reduction of this load is required to meet the total maximum daily load as determined by the Environmental Protection Agency. A total of  per day of it comes from agricultural lands and  per day comes from stream banks. The daily load of sediment from hay or pastures is  and the load from low-intensity development is . The load of sediment from land in transition and from unpaved roads is  per day and  per day. No sediment comes from wetlands. The daily load of phosphorus in the stream is . To meet the total maximum daily load for phosphorus as determined by the Environmental Protection Agency, the load would have to be reduced by 25%.  of the daily load of phosphorus comes from croplands,  comes from groundwater, and  comes from hay or pastures.  comes from hay or pastures and  each comes from stream banks and septic systems.  comes from land "in transition" (according to the Environmental Protection Agency) and  comes from unpaved roads. Wetlands do not contribute any phosphorus to the stream. All of the streams in the watershed are impaired according to the Environmental Protection Agency.

The annual average rainfall between 2005 and 2013 was  in the Warrior Run watershed. The average annual runoff was .

The boroughs of Turbotville and McEwensville both discharge treated sewage into streams in the Warrior Run watershed.

Watershed
The area of the Warrior Run watershed is 21.6 square miles. It is located in Delaware Township and Lewis Township in Northumberland County and a small part of Muncy Creek Township, in Lycoming County. Turbotville is also partially within the boundaries of the watershed. The main highways in the watershed are Interstate 180 (running north-south) and Pennsylvania Route 54 (running east-west). There are also many township roads in the area.

Agricultural land makes up 55% of the Warrior Run watershed. Forested land makes up 35% of the watershed and developed land makes up 10% of it. Most of the forested land is confined to the northern reaches of the watershed. The watershed contains 17.3 acres of wetlands.

History
According to John Franklin Meginness, Warrior Run has been relevant to Northumberland County history since near the beginning of European habitation in the area.

A historic Native American trail once ran from Northumberland to Muncy, passing by the mouth of Warrior Run and the Muncy Hills on the way. By the late 1800s, a public road occupied the course of this path. John Shikellamy, the oldest son of the Oneida chief Shikellamy, owned a hunting lodge at the mouth of Warrior Run. The lodge was known as the Warrior's Camp. Shikellamy himself lived in an area between Warrior Run and Chillisquaque Creek in around 1737.

In May 1769, a lot of 609 acres, including the present-day community of Watsontown, was surveyed at the mouth of Warrior Run. Captain Daniel Piper came to own this land. European Settlers arrived at the stream, four miles (seven kilometers) upstream of the mouth, in 1772, making them the first European settlers in that area. These settlers included Jacob Freeland, John Vincent, Peter Vincent, and Cornelius Vincent. Fort Freeland was built on the site in 1775 to protect the settlers from the Indians. It was a stockaded log house with half an acre of land inside the walls. The fort provided visibility for approximately a mile upstream and downstream. It was destroyed on July 28, 1779 by 100 British troops under the command of John McDonald and 200 Indians commanded by Hiokoto, a Seneca chief. Hawkins Boone, a relative of Daniel Boone, built Fort Boone at the mouth of the stream. Fort Meninger was also located there. John Watson had the idea to build a community at the mouth of Warrior Run, which he started building in 1794. Originally known as Slabtown, its name was later changed to Watsontown. Daniel Vincent purchased 400 acres surrounding Fort Freeland and constructed a mill there. It was renovated in 1818 and remained as late as the early 1900s.

Jacob Freeland constructed a gristmill on the stream in 1773. An 1891 book of Northumberland County history referred to this mill as Freeland's Mill. Daniel Vincent built another mill on Muddy Run out of logs some time before 1792. In 1792, it was replaced with a stone structure. The Wilson Mill was later also built on the stream. In the 1840s, the community of Watsontown had one or two mills on Warrior Run.

Biology
Where Warrior Run flows through agricultural land, there is very little riparian bufferring. Livestock are also able to freely access the stream in places.

Recreation
The Warrior Run Community Corporation plans to establish a walking trail along Warrior Run from McEwensville to the Muncy Hills. Since 2006, there has been a 5-kilometer (3.1-mile) footrace partially along Warrior Run near the Warrior Run Middle School.

title: Chedighaii

text:
Chedighaii hutchisoni was a bothremydid turtle that lived during the Late Cretaceous. It was named in 2006 by Gaffney et al. for a specimen, KUVP 14765, consisting only of a skull. The specimen was found in the San Juan Basin of New Mexico in the Hunter Wash Member of the Kirtland Formation. The formation is one of many formations that are from the  Kirtlandian land-vertebrate age, and date from 74.0 million years ago. The holotype skull is nearly complete. No skeleton or carapace is known, but the material of "Naiadochelys" ingravata might be assignable to C. hutchisoni.

title: Secrets of Monte Carlo

text:
Secrets of Monte Carlo is a 1951 American crime film directed by George Blair and starring Warren Douglas, Lois Hall and June Vincent.

Plot
In Hong Kong, a British insurance investigator and an American businessman join forces to recover the jewels of a Rajah which had recently been stolen by a gang on the French Riviera.

Cast

Critical reception
TV Guide called the film a "competent programmer"; while Allmovie noted, "though inexpensively produced, Secrets of Monte Carlo is an effective suspenser, with Republic's back lot standing in admirably as Southern Europe. Another plus: a formidable array of villains, headed by the glamorous June Vincent."

title: Dénes Zsigmondy

text:
Dénes Zsigmondy (9 April 1922 – 15 February 2014) was a Hungarian classical violinist and music educator.

He was born Dénes Liedemann in Budapest, but changed his name to Zsigmondy, his paternal grandmother's surname, as it was more Hungarian than German. In 1944, whilst attending the Summer Academy in Salzburg, he was informed by his parents that he had been drafted into the Hungarian military—to avoid the draft he did not return to Hungary and hid out with a German family at Lake Starnberg. After World War II, Zsigmondy was rejected by several orchestras before joining the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra when he impressed the conductor with his performance of Brahms' Violin Concerto.

Following this appointment, Zsigmondy would perform as a soloist with the Berliner Symphoniker and the Vienna Symphony; the philharmonic orchestras of Tokyo, Budapest and Munich; and the radio orchestras of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation in Sydney and Melbourne, and in Munich; as well as the Stuttgart Chamber Orchestra and the Camerata Salzburg.

From 1971, he was a professor (later emeritus professor) of music at the University of Washington at Seattle, a visiting professor at Boston University, and conducted masterclasses at the New England Conservatory and other institutions around the world. He taught at the Hochschule für Musik Mainz in his later years.

He was married to the pianist Anneliese Nissen, with whom he gave recitals, from 1947 until her death in 2014. The couple had two daughters.

Zsigmondy died, aged 91, at his home in Bavaria, Germany on 15 February 2014.

title: Apantesis arizoniensis

text:
Apantesis arizoniensis is a moth of the  family Erebidae. It was described by Robert Harper Stretch
(1837–1926) in 1874. It is found from the southwestern United States to Colombia. In the United States, it has been recorded from California, east to western Texas and north to western Colorado and western Wyoming.

The length of the forewings is 16–22 mm. The hindwings are pale to dark pink. Adults are on wing in early June and late August, probably in two generations per year.

The larvae probably feed on various herbaceous plants.

Taxonomy
This species was formerly a member of the genus Notarctia, but was moved to Apantesis along with the other species of the genera Grammia, Holarctia, and Notarctia. The species was also formerly treated as a synonym of Notarctia proxima.

title: Dora Zaslavsky

text:
Dora Zaslavsky Koch (July 18, 1904 – September 9, 1987) was an American pianist who was one of the first graduates of and later a teacher at the Manhattan School of Music.

Early life
Zaslavsky was born in the Russian Empire in 1904, arriving in New York as an infant on February 22, 1905. Her family was Jewish, from the city of Kremenchuk in the oblast of Poltava. Her father Max had emigrated to the United States the previous year. She was traveling with her mother Celia née Fleisher, older siblings Joseph and Fay, and a young cousin. Another brother Israel (also George) was born six years later. Other sources give Zaslavsky’s birth year as 1905, but this is incompatible with the ship manifest information. The family story goes that Zaslavsky's musical talent was discovered "thanks to a large toy piano with real black and white keys" that her father, a peddler, had brought home for her.

She studied piano with Harold Bauer and Janet Schenck, founder of the Neighborhood Music School, which became the Manhattan School of Music, and she was the school's first graduate in 1920. Zaslavsky continued her studies with Wilhelm Backhaus in Philadelphia and Paris, then returned to New York to take up her teaching career at the Manhattan School, where she taught alongside Constance Keene. Among her students were David Bar-Ilan and Abbey Simon.

Marriages

Zaslavsky married New Yorker Herbert Spencer Schwartz (also Herbert Thomas Schwartz) on September 12, 1927. He was a gifted musician whose mother had hoped he would become a concert pianist, as Zaslavsky’s father had hoped for her. Schwartz, however, chose to pursue a college education rather than continue in music. At the time of their marriage he was beginning his third undergraduate year at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, thinking of becoming a physician. He was accepted into medical school but dropped out after one semester, entering Columbia University the following fall to study philosophy. He wrote his doctoral thesis on the philosophy of music, graduating in 1933. Zaslavsky and Schwartz were amicably divorced on August 10, 1935, each of them interested in someone else at the time.

Zaslavsky's second husband, John Koch, grew up in Ann Arbor, and joined the art scene in Paris at age nineteen, where he lived for nearly five years, returning in June, 1933, to Ann Arbor. When he settled in Manhattan the following year, he already knew Zaslavsky, either having met her in New York City before he left for Paris, or having met her during one of her visits to Paris. He was "determined to win her." Koch stayed first with a friend, then moved to a room next door to the one at 56th & Madison in which Zaslavsky was living with her sister Fay. Koch and Zaslavsky were married on December 23, 1935. Their first apartment was at 865 First Avenue in Midtown Manhattan. The bedroom served as his studio; the living room with piano was her studio.

title: VA-145 (U.S. Navy)

text:
Attack Squadron 145 (VA-145) was an aviation unit of the United States Navy, nicknamed the Rustlers from 1951-1954, and the Swordsmen thereafter. The squadron was established as Reserve squadron VA-702 on 1 December 1949, and called to active duty on 20 July 1950. It was redesignated VA-145 on 4 February 1953, and disestablished on 1 October 1993.

Operational history
 27 March 1951: The squadron conducted its first combat sortie, flying close air support missions in Korea. Apr 1951: The squadron, embarked on , operated in the Taiwan Strait.
 20 September 1951: VA-702 flew its last close air support sortie in Korea and thereafter, concentrated its strikes on enemy facilities and targets of opportunity as part of the interdiction program. This policy, the result of fairly stable front lines, was effective 21 September and applied to all units of the Fast Carrier Task Force. Close air support missions were now flown only by the Marine Corps and Air Force. This policy was modified later in the war and Fast Carrier Task Force squadrons again flew close air support missions.

title: Denazinemys

text:
Denazinemys was a genus of baenid turtle that lived in the Late Cretaceous of New Mexico. The holotype specimen, which D. nodosa was based on, USNM 8345, consists of a partial carapace and plastron. It came from the De-na-zin Member of the Kirtland Formation, and therefore, Denazinemys lived in the Kirtlandian land-vertebrate age. Many specimens other than the holotype have been assigned to Denazinemys.

Distinguishing characteristics
Previously, Scabremys ornata was assigned to Denazinemys as D. ornata. Below are the features found in Denazinemys distinguishing the two genera:

 a carapace that is sub-triangular with widest dimension posteriorly;
 prepleurals present and touching the first vertebrae medially;
 the first vertebrae an irregular hexagonal shape with the greatest width posteriorly, contacting anterior second vertebrae;
 extracervicals lateral to the primary cervicals, the cervicals being sub-divided;
 and carapace nodes irregular and not forming distinct ridges.

Classification
Denazinemys is a baenid along with Plesiobaena, Boremys, Scabremys, Baena and Chisternon.

Below is a cladogram made by Sullivan et al. in 2013 showing the relations of Denazinemys: (note: Boremys pulchra is partly a junior synonym of Boremys grandis)

title: Tom Mueller

text:
Thomas John Mueller is an American aerospace engineer and rocket engine designer. He was a founding employee of SpaceX, an American aerospace manufacturer and space transportation services company headquartered in Hawthorne, California, and the founder and CEO of Impulse Space.

He is best known for his engineering work on the TR-106 and several SpaceX rocket engines. He is considered one of the world's leading spacecraft propulsion experts and holds several United States patents for propulsion technology.

Early life and education

Mueller was born in St. Maries, Idaho. His father was a logger and wanted Mueller to be one as well. Mueller compares his story to that of Homer Hickam, growing up in a hard-working family and going off to be an engineer instead of following in his father's footsteps. As a kid, he would build and fly Estes model rockets. He continued to experiment with rockets, even building one out of his father's oxy-acetylene welder and discovering adding water would produce more thrust.

Mueller eventually became a logger, working four summers to pay his way through school. He attended the University of Idaho where in 1985 he earned a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering. He moved to California upon graduating, turning down job offers in Idaho and Oregon. He attended a job fair upon his arrival in California and began working in satellite design and moved on to developing liquid rocket engines. Mueller went on to attend Loyola Marymount University where he obtained his master's degree in Mechanical Engineering in 1992 from the Frank R. Seaver College of Science and Engineering.

Career

For 15 years, Mueller worked for TRW Inc., a conglomerate corporation involved in aerospace, automotive, credit reporting, and electronics. He managed the propulsion and combustion products department where he was responsible for liquid rocket engine development. He worked as a lead engineer during the development of the TR-106, a  thrust, throttled, cost-contained hydrogen engine designed in 2000.

During his time at TRW, Mueller felt that his ideas were being lost in a diverse corporation and as a hobby he began to build his own engines. He would attach them to airframes and launch them in the Mojave Desert along with other members of the Reaction Research Society.

In late 2001, Mueller began developing a liquid-fueled rocket engine in his garage and later moved his project to a friend's warehouse in 2002. His design was the largest amateur liquid-fuel rocket engine, weighing  and producing  of thrust. His work caught the attention of Elon Musk, X.com founder
, and in 2002 Mueller joined Musk as a founding employee of SpaceX.

As Vice President of Propulsion Engineering and subsequently CTO of Propulsion at SpaceX, Mueller led the team that developed the Merlin 1A and Kestrel engines for the Falcon 1, the first liquid fueled orbital rocket launched by a private company; the Merlin 1C, Merlin 1D and MVac engines for the early iterations of the Falcon 9 launch vehicle; as well as the Draco thrusters that provide the attitude control thrusters for the Dragon spacecraft, as well as the SuperDraco storable-propellant engines used to power the capsule launch escape system. Dragon was the first spacecraft launched by a private company to dock at the International Space Station. In 2014, Mueller transitioned engine development to the SpaceX Propulsion Engineering team and in 2016 he moved into the role of Propulsion CTO. In January 2019 he became Senior Advisor (Part-Time). Tom Mueller announced that he retired from SpaceX on November 30, 2020.

Tom Mueller founded his own company, Impulse Space in September of 2021. The company develops chemical rocket engines, space tugs for moving satellites on-orbit, and planetary landers to deliver payloads to Mars.

Outside his work at SpaceX, he was a commencement speaker for Loyola Marymount University graduate students in 2013, the year after SpaceX became the first private company to send a cargo payload to the International Space Station. He was also the feature of an article called "Rocket Man," published by LMU Magazine in 2011. In 2014, Mueller was nominated for the Wyld Award, presented by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) for outstanding achievement in the development or application of rocket propulsion systems.

title: Zeuterin

text:
Zeuterin (zū-tur-in) is the trade name of an injectable product containing zinc gluconate and the amino acid arginine, which is used for sterilizing young male dogs without the removal of the testicles. The product is injected directly into the testicle, where the zinc gluconate destroys the sperm and causes inflammation, which leads to fibrosis and causes sterility. Sperm production continues for up to 60 days after product administration, and in some dogs does not stop completely, although the product is 99.6% effective when given to dogs aged 3-10 months of age. Following administration, the testicles atrophy; the degree of atrophy may vary noticeably between testicles. The male hormone, testosterone, is produced in limited quantities following treatment with Zeuterin, but after two years, testosterone production is similar to that in untreated dogs. The continuing presence of testosterone means that, unlike surgical castration, chemical castration does not remove the risk of testosterone-associated disease, such as prostatic disease.

This method of chemical castration is contraindicated in cases of undescended testicles (cryptorchidism), or if scrotal dermatitis or testicular disease is present.
If the product is not injected correctly, scrotal ulceration and swelling may occur. The manufacturer, Ark Sciences, certifies veterinarians to use Zeuterin after they have completed a 5-hour course regarding the correct location and manner to inject the drug.

In the United States, this product was approved by the Food and Drug Administration  in 2003, under the trade name Neutersol, and was marketed from 2003 to 2005 by Pet Healthcare International. In 2005, Pet Healthcare International severed ties with its manufacturing partner Addison Biologicals, and production of the drug stopped.  Ark Sciences acquired the intellectual property to Neutersol, rebranded it as Zeuterin, and relaunched it in 2014. In 2016, Ark Sciences suspended distribution of Zeuterin.

Outside of the United States, Zeuterin is known by the trade name Esterilsol.
