title: Acropora lutkeni

text:
Acropora lutkeni is a species of acroporid coral found in the central Indo-Pacific, Japan, Australia, the northern Indian Ocean, the East China Sea, southeast Asia, and the central and western Pacific Ocean. The species also occurs in the south Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Palau, the Andaman Islands, Fiji, the Philippines, the Banggai Islands, Samoa, the Raja Ampat Islands, the Line Islands, Papua New Guinea, and the Chagos Archipelago. It exists in tropical shallow reefs on upper slopes that are exposed to the action of strong waves or currents, and subtidally on edges of reefs and in submerged reefs. It exists at depths of between  and probably spawns in October.

Description
It is found in corymbose colonies in plate structures with tapered branches. Axial corallites are present and rounded, radial corallites are not orderly and have a variety of diameters and shapes. The species is grey, purple, or cream-brown in colour, and it looks similar to Acropora forskali.

Distribution
It is classed as a Near Threatened species on the IUCN Red List and it is believed that its population is decreasing; the species is also listed under Appendix II of CITES. Figures of its population are unknown, but is likely to be threatened by the global reduction of coral reefs, the increase of temperature causing coral bleaching, climate change, human activity, the crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci) and disease. It occurs in the central Indo-Pacific, Japan, Australia, the northern Indian Ocean, the East China Sea, southeast Asia, and the central and western Pacific Ocean. The species also occurs in the south Mariana Islands, American Samoa, Palau, the Andaman Islands, Fiji, the Philippines, the Banggai Islands, Samoa, the Raja Ampat Islands, the Line Islands, Papua New Guinea, and the Chagos Archipelago. It exists at depths of between  and is found on upper slopes that are exposed to wave action and currents, on edges of reefs, and on submerged reefs.

Taxonomy
Acropora lutkeni was described by Crossland in 1952.

title: Listed buildings in Sandbach

text:
Sandbach is a civil parish in Cheshire East, Cheshire, England. It contains 78 buildings that are recorded in the National Heritage List for England as designated listed buildings. Of these, two are listed at Grade I, the highest grade, two are listed at Grade II*, the middle grade, and the others are at Grade II. The parish includes the market town of Sandbach, and the villages of Elworth, Ettiley Heath and Wheelock, and most of the listed buildings are in these settlements. These include houses, shops, public houses, churches, a school, public and commercial buildings and structures associated with them. The most important listed structure in the parish are the two 9th-century Sandbach Crosses, which were recorded in the town in the mid-16th century and were reinstalled in the Market Square in 1816. The other Grade-I-listed building is Old Hall Hotel, a timber-framed building dating from 1656, on the site of a former manor house. One of the earliest public houses in the parish is the Black Bear Inn, a timber-framed building of 1634 that is listed at Grade II*. Several buildings in and around Sandbach are by George Gilbert Scott. These include Sandbach School, which dates from 1849 to 1851 and is in Tudor Revival style; its lodge is in Gothic Revival style. Scott also designed the town's Literary Institute and a set of almshouses. He rebuilt the Grade-II*-listed St Mary's Church in Sandbach, and designed St John the Evangelist's Church in Sandbach Heath. Sandbach Town Hall and Market Hall (1889) was designed by Thomas Bower.

The rest of the parish is rural, and the listed buildings here consist of farmhouses and farm buildings. The Trent and Mersey Canal runs through the parish and several listed buildings are associated with it, including bridges, locks, mileposts, accommodation for canal workers, a stable and ticket office, and a warehouse. More unusual listed structures include three war memorials, a drinking fountain and a telephone kiosk.

title: Acropora microphthalma

text:
Acropora microphthalma is a species of acroporid coral found in the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aden, the southwest and northern Indian Ocean, the central Indo-Pacific, Australia, Southeast Asia, Japan, the East China Sea and the oceanic west and central Pacific Ocean. It is also found in the Line Islands. It occurs in shallow tropical reefs on upper reef slopes, in turbid water and in sandy lagoons. It can be found from depths of 5–25 m.

Description
Colonies of this species are small and arborescent, usually forming thickets. The branches are slender and straight. Its colour is usually pale grey, but it is sometimes pale brown or cream.

Biology
Acropora microphthalma is a zooxanthellate species of coral. It obtains most of its nutritional needs from the symbiotic dinoflagellates that live inside its soft tissues. These photosynthetic organisms provide the coral with organic carbon and nitrogen, sometimes providing up to 90% of their host's energy needs for metabolism and growth. Its remaining needs are met by the planktonic organisms caught by the tentacles of the polyps.

Status
This coral is a common species and no species-specific threats have been identified. The main threats faced by corals in general are related to climate change and the mechanical destruction of their coral reef habitats; increasing damage from extreme weather events, rising sea water temperatures and ocean acidification. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed the conservation status of this species as being "near threatened". All corals receive protection by being listed on CITES Appendix II.

title: Elmer Petersen

text:
Elmer Paul Petersen (September 4, 1928 – August 5, 2020) was an American sculptor who worked in metal. His most prominent artwork is the World's Largest Buffalo in Jamestown, North Dakota. Petersen lived and worked in Galesville, Wisconsin. Much of his art is publicly displayed around La Crosse, Wisconsin, where he led the Downtown La Crosse Sculpture Project Committee. The La Crosse Tribune called Petersen "one of the premier sculptors in the Coulee Region" and "instrumental in getting public sculpture scattered throughout downtown" La Crosse. He has worked significantly with welding, including that of found metal objects, and often sculpted in cast bronze.

While at Dana College, Petersen was drafted in the middle of his education, then returned on the GI Bill to do graduate work in art at the University of Wisconsin. Early in his career, Petersen taught at the University of Jamestown, North Dakota, where he sculpted a large buffalo that is still an important landmark of the city and the namesake of its moniker "Buffalo City". Petersen worked and taught at Texas Lutheran University before returning to Wisconsin in 1978 and opening an art studio.

Petersen received thirteen awards out of 23 juried shows. In 2007, he displayed a collection at The Danish Immigrant Museum in Elk Horn, Iowa.  Roger D. Roslansky, Chair of Board, HSR Associates of La Crosse, remarked that Petersen was "an invaluable resource and an extremely creative artist," "a sculptor of significant note!"

His death was announced on August 5, 2020, aged 91. Petersen died from Acute Myeloid leukemia and pneumonia at Gundersen Lutheran Medical Center in La Crosse, Wisconsin.

title: Shaun Williams (wrestler)

text:
Shaun Phillip Williams (born December 5, 1976 in Pretoria) is a retired amateur South African freestyle wrestler, who competed in the men's featherweight category. Williams has claimed three medals (two silver and one bronze) at the All-Africa Games, picked up a bronze in the 55-kg division at the 2002 Commonwealth Games in Manchester, and later represented his nation South Africa, as a lone wrestler, at the 2004 Summer Olympics. Williams also trained for the University of Oregon's freestyle wrestling team, under his coach Pat Whidcomb, while studying and attending college in the United States.

Williams emerged himself into the international spotlight at the 2002 Commonwealth Games in Manchester, United Kingdom, where he took home the bronze medal in the men's featherweight division (55 kg). The following year, Williams continued to produce another sporting success by bringing home the African championship title in freestyle wrestling, and by ending up eleventh in the same class at the 2003 World Wrestling Championships in New York City, New York, United States, which earned him a ticket to compete for the South African Olympic team.

At the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens, Williams qualified as a lone wrestler for the South African squad in the men's featherweight class (55 kg), by receiving a berth and rounding out the top eleven spot from the World Championships. He lost his opening bout against Bulgaria's Radoslav Velikov because of the ten-point superiority limit, and could not gain enough points to outclass China's Li Zhengyu in a sudden-death match 4–5, leaving Williams on the bottom of the prelim pool and finishing seventeenth overall in the final standings.

After his retirement from the sport in late 2007, Williams worked as the wrestling head coach for Hermiston High School in Hermiston, Oregon. In late 2015, Williams moved to Spokane, Washington, and began work for Central Valley High School in Spokane Valley, Washington, where he started a new role as a resource education teacher, in addition to his role serving as the school’s current wrestling head coach.

title: John Bilson (architect)

text:
John Bilson (1856–1943) was an English architect trained under William Botterill, later working as a partner in Botterill and Bilson. Bilson is best known for his architectural research on the medieval period.

Biography

John Bilson was born on 23 September 1856 in Newark-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire and educated at Wesley College, Sheffield. He trained in architecture under William Botterill from 1873 to 1877, and joined the practice as a partner in 1881.

After Botterill's son's early death in 1879 Bilson became the main partner in the practice, and took over the business completely when Botterill retired in 1899.

Bilson received a D.Litt. from Durham University in 1925 for his work on dating the architecture of Durham Cathedral. he was also honoured by the Société française d'archéologie (French) in 1926.

John had two children, John Seymour Craven Bilson (born 1903) and Joan Bilson (born 1906).

He died 15 December 1943.

Legacy
Bilson is well regarded for his historical work on medieval architecture; on his work at Durham it has been written "The chronology of the works [..] of construction have been established by John Bilson on such solid bases that there is nothing significant to be added." John Bilson also wrote an article for the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica on Romanesque and Gothic Architecture in England. Photographs attributed to Bilson are held by The Courtauld in the Conway Library of art and architecture, and are currently being digitised.

title: Dan Hartleb

text:
Dan Hartleb (born February 15, 1966) is an American baseball coach and former catcher, who is the current the head baseball coach of the Illinois Fighting Illini. Hartleb played two seasons of junior college baseball at John A. Logan College before finishing his playing career with two seasons at Southern Illinois.  His coaching career began immediately after his playing career ended, as he served as a graduate assistant under Itch Jones at Southern Illinois from 1989–1990.  When Jones was offered the head coaching position at Illinois following the 1990 season, Hartleb went with him and served as an Illinois assistant from 1991–2005. Under Hartleb, the Fighting Illini have appeared in four NCAA tournaments.

Hartleb became the head coach at Illinois when Jones retired at the end of the 2005 season.  The Illini qualified for four Big Ten Tournaments in Hartleb's first five seasons, finishing with an above-.500 record in each.  They failed to make an NCAA tournament or win more than one game in a Big Ten Tournament, however, and media outlets raised the possibility that Hartleb's contract would not be renewed following the 2010.  It was, however, and Illinois won the Big Ten regular season and tournament titles the following year, qualifying for the NCAA tournament.  There, the team went 2–2 and reached a regional final.  After missing the Big Ten Tournament in 2012, Illinois reached another NCAA tournament in 2013.  Following the season, Hartleb signed a new, multi-year contract.

Head coaching record
The following is a table of Hartleb's yearly records as a collegiate head baseball coach.

title: Sloan Simpson

text:
Elizabeth Laurenson Simpson (October 18, 1916 – 1996), better known as Sloan Simpson, (later adopting Sloane as her surname) was a fashion consultant, TV/radio personality, fashion model, and actor. Simpson served as First Lady of New York City during the mayoralty of William O'Dwyer.

Early life and education
Simpson was born to Eleanora Laurenson Myer Simpson and William Sloan Simpson (known as Sloan) in Dallas, Texas on October 18, 1916. Called "Betty" during her childhood, she grew up in Highland Park, Texas, a town in the Dallas suburbs. Sloan Simpson, a lieutenant-colonel  in the U.S. Army, served with President Theodore Roosevelt's Rough Riders during the Spanish–American War. He participated in the Battle of San Juan Hill. Simpson's grandfather, John R. Simpson, founded the Exchange Bank, which became the First National Bank of Texas.

During her childhood, Simpson studied at the Sacred Heart Convent in the Torresdale neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and the Beard School (now Morristown-Beard School) in Orange, New Jersey. She graduated from Highland Park High School in University Park, Texas. Simpson then completed her undergraduate studies at Stephens College in Columbia, Missouri.

Radio, TV, and film
Simpson worked as a TV and radio personality. In December 1953, she began hosting a radio program titled The Sloan Simpson Show on WOR, a radio station in New York City. The 25-minute talk show, which aired on weekday evenings at 9:05 pm, discussed fashion, current events, and celebrity gossip. The show aired nationally on the Mutual Broadcasting System, a national radio network, from 1954–1955. Simpson's TV show with the same name, which ran on WOR-TV, began in January 1954. WOR-TV canceled the show in April of that year. Simpson also made guest appearances on other TV programs, including Leave It to the Girls (a talk show), Let's Take Sides (a debate show), and One Minute Please (a quiz show).

During the late 1950s and early 1960s, Simpson starred in roles in film and on TV. She played the character Harriet Byrne in the 1960 movie  The Pusher. Simpson also made guest appearances on The Phil Silvers Show on  CBS-TV and Naked City on  ABC-TV.

Fashion industry and tours
After working as a fashion model for the John Powers agency, Simpson served as a fashion coordinator for Stern's, a regional chain of department stores in New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. She then served as a fashion consultant for the Flemington Fur Company. Simpson supervised the company's fashion shows in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania.

In 1960, Simpson moved from the U.S. to Acapulco, a coastal city in Mexico near the Pacific Ocean. She worked as a clerk in a hotel dress shop. Simpson then served as a correspondent for Women's Wear Daily, a fashion magazine, and she worked as a tour representative for Braniff International Airways. Known by the community as the "First Lady of Acapulco", Simpson also ran a boutique.

1956 Manhattan robbery
In February 1956, burglars broke into Simpson's three-room apartment on East 52nd Street in Manhattan. The burglars stole jewelry valued at $5,000, which included diamond earrings and bracelets. Their break-in occurred during a trip by Simpson to visit to her mother in New Hope, Pennsylvania.

Personal life and family
Simpson married Carroll Dewey Hipp on November 10, 1938. Having divorced Hipp, on September 23, 1943; she married New York City mayor William O'Dwyer on December 20, 1949. O'Dwyer's aids received 250 telegrams of congratulation on the couple's wedding day, including one from his friend, President Harry Truman. Sent from Air Force One, Truman's telegram read, "Hearty greetings to you and to the woman of your choice and best wishes for long years of happiness."

Following his 1949 re-election, O'Dwyer was confronted with a police corruption scandal uncovered by Kings County District Attorney Miles McDonald. Truman appointed O'Dwyer as the U.S. Ambassador to Mexico. O'Dwyer resigned, and was given a ticker tape parade along Broadway's Canyon of Heroes in Manhattan, and the couple relocated to Acapulco, returning, briefly, in 1951, to appear before the Kefauver Committee.

Simpson and O'Dwyer divorced in 1953. Following her divorce from O'Dwyer, Simpson had a well-publicized affair with Mario Rivas, the married owner of hotels in Mexico City and Acapulco, which was then publicized by True Magazine.

title: A Spiral of Mist

text:
A Spiral of Mist (, , also known as Une spirale de brume) is a 1977 Italian-French thriller-drama film directed by Eriprando Visconti. It is based on the novel with the same name written by Michele Prisco.

During a short hunt, Fabrizio (Marc Porel) kills his wife Valeria (Carole Chauvet) with a shotgun. There are no eyewitnesses. Maria Teresa (Claude Jade), Fabrizio's cousin, remains convinced of his innocence. And the only way to suffocate the scandal seems to be to intervene Marcello (Duilio Del Prete), lawyer and husband of Maria Teresa, to put pressure on the judiciary. Judge Renato Marinoni (Stefano Satta Flores) begins her investigation. He finds out, what we see in flashbacks: Valeria tried to couple her friend Maria Teresa with the beautiful and sexually active lawyer Cesare Molteni (Roberto Posse). But Maria Teresa declined to sleep together in the house of Fabrizio at the last moment. Both marriages, by Maria Teresa and by her cousin Fabrizio, were unhappy. Today Maria Teresa is in a difficult situation: married to Marcello, forty years old, helpless but helpless despite the therapies, she has just come to know that her husband is getting ready to recognize the child that their driver (Flavio Andreini) has conceived with their housekeeper Armida (Anna Bonaiuto). For the first time, in front of the family council (Corrado Gaipa, Marina Berti) in the center of which she has always been refuge, Maria Teresa replies firmly. The woman, who, for fear of being silent, married the lawyer, decides to act on her own, according to her own will.

title: Ángela Figuera Aymerich

text:
Ángela Figuera Aymerich (October 30, 1902 in Bilbao – April 2, 1984 in Madrid) was a Basque and Spanish poet and writer.

Early years
Angela was born in Bilbao, Spain into a middle class family, but due to her mother's poor health, Figuera spent much of her childhood raising her eight younger siblings. She attended primary school and went on to secondary school as one of five girls among one hundred boys. Despite her father's resistance, she studied literature at University in Valladolid.

After her father's death in 1930, Figuera, her mother and the family moved from Bilbao to Madrid. Figuera went on to the University of Madrid and graduated with a degree in philosophy and humanities and then passed the official exams to earn a permanent teaching position as Professor of Language and Literature at the Institutes of Huelvaat.

In 1932, she married Julio Figuera (d.1994), who would be her lifelong companion. Sadly, in 1935 she gave birth to a child who died at birth when extracted with forceps. Their second child, Juan Ramón, was born in Madrid during the war.

Civil War
The Spanish Civil War was devastating to Figuera who lost her teaching position in 1936 because of her sympathies with Republican dissidents. Meanwhile, her husband enlisted in the Republican militias. She lamented the atmosphere of hate, retribution and injustice that became widespread in Spain during that time.

With the end of hostilities, she found employment at the National Library of Madrid.

Later years
Figuera spurned the ideals of pure poetry and was the same age as members of the poetry group known as Generation of 1927 and should have been counted among them. Instead, because she did not publish until later in life, in 1948 (at about 46 years of age), she was considered a senior member of the Generation of 1936, a later group of poets.

Ángela died in Madrid on April 2, 1984, at 84 years of age. With her passing, her husband Julio began his life-long campaign to keep her work from being forgotten. Because of his insistence, in 1986, Hiperión published the first edition of the Complete Works of Ángela Figuera Aymerich.

She continued to write "using humble words to write on issues that are still serious today: she wrote about injustices, about freedom in the twentieth century, about freedom crushed a thousand times, about the child who died at birth, and also about women's equality and rights," said Juan Mari Aburto, the mayor of Bilbao, at a dedication held at the Ángela Figuera Institute in 2018.

She has been remembered by author Jose Ramón Zabala as "a real hinge between Basque and Madrid cultural circles."

It occurs in tropical shallow reefs on upper slopes of reefs, from depths of . It was described by Brook in 1891.

Description
It occurs in digitate colonies that are either prostrate or corymbose and have diameters up to . Its branches taper slightly towards the ends and are curved. Its axial corallites have diameters at least double the size of its radial corallites and are dome-shaped; its radial corallites are tube-shaped. It is blue, cream, or purple in colour, and looks similar to Acropora torresiana.

Distribution
It is classed as a least concern species on the IUCN Red List, but it is believed that its population is decreasing, and it is listed under Appendix II of CITES. Figures of its population are unknown, but is likely to be threatened by the global reduction of coral reefs, the increase of temperature causing coral bleaching, climate change, human activity, the crown-of-thorns starfish (Acanthaster planci) and disease. It occurs in the Red Sea, the Gulf of Aden, the southwest and northern Indian Ocean, the central Indo-Pacific, Australia, Southeast Asia, Japan, the East China Sea and the oceanic west and central Pacific Ocean.

title: Gyobutsuji Zen Monastery

text:
is a small Sōtō Zen Buddhist monastery near Kingston in Madison County, Arkansas in the United States. It is located in the Boston Mountains of the Ozarks. The temple focuses primarily on the practice of zazen in the tradition of Kosho Uchiyama and Shohaku Okumura, the latter being the teacher of the founder, Shōryū Bradley. Study of the writings of Eihei Dōgen and the teachings of Shakyamuni Buddha are also emphasized. The monastery holds a five-day sesshin every month except in January and August.

The name Gyōbutsu-ji literally means 'Practice Buddha Temple' and is derived from Eihei Dōgen's magnum opus the Shōbōgenzō, specifically the chapter titled Gyōbutsu igi (行仏威儀). While the standard Classical Chinese interpretation of this title is "practice Buddha's dignified actions", Dōgen re-interpreted it as "dignified actions of the Practice Buddha" in line with his assertion that practice and enlightenment are the same. The chapter explains:

title: Mort the Chicken

text:
Mort the Chicken is a platform game developed by AndNow and published by Crave Entertainment. It was released in North America on November 30, 2000 for the PlayStation and later released in Europe on January 19, 2001.

Plot
In a universe where chickens are the dominant species, Mort the Chicken stars in his own television show. However, in an alternate universe, cube-like creatures called The Boolyon are spying on them. Their leader, General Cubicles, notices that the chickens have stacks of hay, but mistakes them for kidnapped citizens of their universe; in retaliation, he launches an invasion of the chickens' universe through a well, and the Boolyon kidnap the baby chicks, scattering them across the Boolyon's universe. Mort, being the only one brave enough to stop the cubes, jumps down the well and starts his adventure to save the baby chicks.

Gameplay

Mort the Chicken is a relatively straightforward platformer. The player controls Mort as he explores his universe, rescuing baby chicks and killing cubes. Mort can destroy the cubes using the comb on his head, which can be used as a whip. Some cubes cannot be killed, and every time Mort takes a hit, the cubes steal a chick from Mort and imprison it. Mort's health bar is shown by two stalks of corn, and when Mort loses health, part of the corn disappears. Each level has up to 10 chicks to rescue. Mort can also gain power-ups. These power-ups include making him jump higher, become giant, attract chicks, extend his neck-whip attack, or have chicks attack enemies. Eggs and chicken food are scattered across the levels, and Mort can peck at these with his beak. Eggs give Mort power-ups and chicken food restores health.

Reception

Mort the Chicken received unfavorable reviews according to the review aggregation website GameRankings.

Legacy
Mort is featured in the 2023 game Pizza Tower as a power-up in the stage "Fun Farm", allowing the player to double jump, attack enemies and launch themselves from hooks. Ed Annunziata, the creator of the character, gave permission for the character to be used in the game when asked by the creator of Pizza Tower, McPig.

title: Operational Silo Test Facility

text:
The Operational Silo Test Facility (OSTF) is a former United States Air Force intercontinental ballistic missile launch facility at Vandenberg Space Force Base, California, United States. It was a developmental launch site for the silo-based Titan and Atlas missile series.

The site was originally constructed for Titan I tests. On 12 December 1960, a fully fueled Titan was lifted to the surface in preparation for launch when the silo elevator collapsed. The missile fell back down into the silo and exploded, damaging the facility so badly that it was abandoned. The first launch of a silo-based missile would take place  to the northwest inside the Silo Launch Test Facility (SLTF).

The OSTF complex also included silos for launching Atlas E and F missiles; coffin types for the former and elevator types for the latter. Atlas testing began rather ignominiously when Missile 27E exploded at liftoff on 7 June 1961, putting OSTF-1 out of use for seven months. The facility went on to host another nine Atlas E launches before being decommissioned in 1964.

Operational tests were designed as practice drills for ballistic missile crews and also engineering tests of the missile and silo equipment—they would travel to Vandenberg Air Force Base and launch a randomly selected missile from the inventory, which was then equipped with telemetry and Range Safety destruct packages. Some launches tested reentry vehicles or Nike-Zeus target missiles.

OSTF-2 hosted seven Atlas F launches between 1962 and 1965. This facility received its own baptism of fire on 4 October 1963 when Missile 45F tipped over at liftoff after one engine failed to start. Damage to the silo was not that serious and it hosted the final Atlas R&D flight two months later. Then on 2 April 1964, a repeat disaster happened when Missile 3F failed in virtually identical fashion to 45F. This time OSTF-2 was not used again for six months, after which it hosted the finale Atlas ICBM test, Missile 106F, on 8 January 1965 and was then decommissioned from service.

Daniel Chun-Tuen Tsang () is an American activist and scholar whose writings have been of great importance in the Asian American and LGBT political movements.

Education
Tsang graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Government from the University of Redlands in 1971. He later received a Master of Arts in Political Science in 1973 and a Master of Library Sciences in 1977, both from the University of Michigan.

Career

Tsang worked with early activist organizations such as the Gay Liberation Front in Ann Arbor, Michigan, the Graduate Employees' Organization (GEO), and East Wind, an Asian American activist organization. Tsang also worked as a librarian for Temple University, Community College of Philadelphia, Free Library of Philadelphia and the University of California, Irvine.

In 1978 Tsang attended what he described as the founding meeting of the North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA), a pro-paedophilia advocacy organisation. He edited the 1981 volume The Age Taboo: Gay Male Sexuality, Power, and Consent, a publication that argued in favor of the legalization of sex between adults and children, child prostitution, and child pornography. As of 1989 he was a member of the Southern California chapter of NAMBLA.

Tsang's career has combined librarianship with activism. Key areas include organizing for queer rights among Asians, queer liberation, union rights, documenting social change, and archiving protest.
Tsang's scholarship has focused on data archiving and data management. He has also documented the way data sets can be identified for research. His assessment of sustainability for research library collections was the focus of a presentation at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.

During Tsang's career he has also identified resources that document protest movements such as the First March for Lesbian and Gay Rights, the U.S. Underground and Alternative Press of the 1960s and '70s and the Umbrella Movement.

Tsang has podcast at KUCI: Subversity 88.9 fm Irvine, CA.

title: The Fresh Grocer

text:
The Fresh Grocer is a supermarket chain based in Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania that operates thirteen stores in the Greater Philadelphia region of Pennsylvania. Founded in 1996 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as an independent company, the company became a member of the Wakefern Food Corporation, a retailers' cooperative, in 2013.

History

The Fresh Grocer opened in 1996 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Fresh Grocer has locations on Chestnut Street and Broad Street in North Philadelphia. On August 1, 2013, The Fresh Grocer became a member of Wakefern. One of the stores was converted to the ShopRite name while the others retained the Fresh Grocer name. The Fresh Grocer Location in Wilmington, DE was closed on December 9, 2019.

Expansion
The chain opened four new Fresh Grocer stores in March 2016, all in former Pathmark stores that were purchased at auction.  The stores are in Wyncote, Upper Darby, Brookhaven, and Monument Avenue in Philadelphia.

Since 2001, the University of Pennsylvania made efforts to remove The Fresh Grocer from its Walnut Street location. In 2017, The Fresh Grocer was asked to vacate the property after failing to renew its lease. The grocery store sued University of Pennsylvania maintaining its intention to stay at the location.

In 2018, Governor of Pennsylvania, Tom Wolf spoke at The Fresh Grocer regarding boost pay in Pennsylvania allowing "hundreds of thousands of additional salaried employees eligible for overtime pay".

In 2019, Nicholas Markets, which previously operated as part of the Foodtown chain, joined the Wakefern cooperative, switching their stores to the Fresh Grocer banner, bringing the total stores under the banner to 13. In 2022, Gerrity's Supermarkets announced that they would be transitioning their 10 stores from the ShurSave banner to The Fresh Grocer banner, bringing the total stores under the banner to 23.

title: Silicon Photonics Cloud

text:
Silicon Photonics Cloud (SiCloud) is an instructional web-based research tool for silicon photonics developed at UCLA under the National Science Foundation-funded CIAN research center.

Introduction
SiCloud’s provides instructional and research web-based tools. Such interactive learning tools provide two important benefits that enhance traditional teaching methods: They can be accessed by anyone from anywhere and interactive tools engage the brain in a way different from merely reading, and so enhance and reinforce the learning experience.

Silicon photonics is a platform for manufacturing low cost and high bandwidth communication components for data centers and distributed computing, storage and network systems. It has transitioned from research to industry with participation by most major semiconductor companies as well as myriad startups. Understanding this field may be challenging for researchers and students alike, as silicon photonics involves a wide range of disciplines, including material science, semiconductor physics, electronics and waveguide optics. This field has been recognized by the Forbes magazine as "The $100B Opportunity".

Features
This web-based calculator is an interactive analysis tool for optical properties of silicon and related material (, etc.). It is designed to be a one stop resource for students, researchers and design engineers. The first and most basic aspect of Silicon Photonics is the Material Parameters, which provides the foundation for the Device, Sub-System and System levels.

In the Material Parameters tab, one may study the physical properties of the materials commonly used in silicon photonics. SiCloud includes the common dielectrics and semiconductors for waveguide core, cladding, and photodetection, as well as metals for electrical contacts. In the Main Graph, one may examine several physical parameters of interest for each material, in different wavelength ranges, and choose between frequency and free-space wavelength for convenience. SiCloud also includes citations for the original data so that users may gather the raw data and be self-assured of its accuracy and conditions.

For silicon in particular, SiCloud includes a large number of parameters beyond refractive index and absorption coefficient, including the thermo-optic coefficient, Raman gain coefficient, Kerr coefficient, and two-photon absorption coefficient. One important consideration of a researcher is the optical loss in a given length of material, and so SiCloud provides a loss graph. Here, one may observe total material absorption, but also consider the reflection loss due to, e.g., coupling, for a variety of materials. With two facets we can even see Fabry-Perot resonances.

History
SiCloud was developed by UCLA graduate student Peter DeVore and a team of researchers at the Jalali-Lab. It is part of the educational effort funded by the Center for Integrated Access Networks Engineering Research Center) of NSF. It debuted at the 2014 CIAN Annual Meeting in Tucson, Arizona on May 14, 2014. SiCloud is a work in progress and its capability is being expanded.

They argue that the unit's temperature is at dangerous levels and that it needs to be lowered to . The suit was filed at a federal courthouse in Houston. The four plaintiffs have disabilities and medical conditions amplified by extreme heat. They compared cell blocks to ovens and argued that tables are too hot to touch.

title: Gyroporus purpurinus

text:
Gyroporus purpurinus is a species of bolete fungus in the family Gyroporaceae. Found in eastern North America, it was first described in 1936 by Wally Snell as a form of Boletus castaneus. Snell and Rolf Singer transferred it to Gyroporus a decade later. Neither of these publications were valid according to the rules of botanical nomenclature, which at the time mandated a description in Latin. In 2013, Roy Halling and Naveed Davoodian published the name validly.

The species is edible.
