title: Edward "Ned" Kendall

text:
Edward "Ned" Kendall (March 1, 1808 in Fort Wolcott, Goat Island, Rhode Island – October 26, 1861 in Boston) was a bandleader and musician who played the keyed bugle. He was known for his Boston Brass Band, itself a pioneer in all-brass bands, and for a trumpet-playing showdown with the former leader of the Boston Brigade Band, Patrick Gilmore. He was also known for his silver bugle, a gift from Queen Victoria.

Kendall formed or took leadership of the Boston Brass Band in 1835, at a time when band instruments were changing. He played the keyed bugle, an instrument first made by Nathan Adams of Lowell, Massachusetts, c. 1825. The instruments had become popular with bands very soon, and were common by 1830. Ned was considered among the best on his chosen instrument, and his death seen as the "end of an era" for the instrument, as the valved cornet took over in the bands.

One of Kendall's instruments, a keyed bugle made H. Sibley, Boston, was given to the Library of Congress.

title: Old Pine Street Church

text:
Old Pine Street Church is a Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania built in 1768.

American Revolution
Old Pine became known as the "Church of the Patriots" because many of the parishioners such as John Adams, stood with George Washington. George Duffield served as pastor from 1772 until 1790; during the American Revolution, Duffield served as a chaplain of the Continental Congress.

Joseph Bonaparte was married here in 1820.

Cemetery
The churchyard dates to the congregation's place in the American Revolution. The church counts those buried to include

 A signer of the Constitution of the United States
 3 Continental Congress attendees
 2 colonial printers
 Over 200 Revolutionary War soldiers
 1 Tory
 Ringer of the Liberty Bell
 9 members of the Carpenter's Company of Philadelphia

The cemetery also includes medical doctors, lawyers, sea captains, silversmiths, stonemasons, tavern keepers, tradesmen, and everyday citizens from the Colonial era. The last interment in the churchyard was in 1958 for In Ho Oh, a murdered University of Pennsylvania student.

Notable burials
Jared Ingersoll (17491822), lawyer and statesman
Joel Barlow Sutherland (17921861), U.S. Congressman

Current activity

Old Pine is now the only remaining Presbyterian building in Philadelphia from before the American Revolutionary War.

Continuing its more than 200 years of community activism, Old Piners were among the first to respond to the problem of the homeless. In 1982, it founded and, in the beginning, sheltered the Philadelphia Committee for the Homeless. In 1978, Old Pine started its Saturday for Seniors (SFS) program to provide a weekend hot lunch and take-home snack for the city's elderly—a Philadelphia first. With no charge and no means test, SFS has become a vital weekend home for more than 100 older people from all over the city. Old Pine continues its commitment to serve the poor in the 21st century. The congregation participates in a local Habitat for Humanity project in the Point Breeze neighborhood of Philadelphia, joining with other Presbyterian congregations to jump-start development there and in surrounding blocks. In addition, it sends members to communities impacted by natural disasters: the Gulf Coast to help the clean-up and rebuilding effort in the wake of Hurricane Katrina; flooding disasters in Huntington, West Virginia and Towanda, Pennsylvania; Bayville, New Jersey after Hurricane Sandy.

title: Andrew Jameson, Lord Ardwall

text:
Andrew Jameson, Lord Ardwall (5 July 1845 – 21 November 1911) was a Scottish Advocate and Judge. He is the subject of a 1913 biography by John Buchan.

Life
Born at Ayr on 5 July 1845, he was eldest son of Alexandra, daughter of Alexander Colquhoun Campbell of Barnhill, Dumbartonshire and her husband, Andrew Jameson, sheriff of Aberdeen. Educated at Edinburgh Academy, he graduated with an MA from the University of St Andrews in 1865. He then attended the University of Edinburgh, and on 19 May 1870 he passed at the Scottish bar, where he gradually built up a practice.

In 1882 Jameson was appointed junior counsel to the department of woods and forests. On 27 April 1886 he was made sheriff of Roxburgh, Berwick and Selkirk. Having taken part in politics as a Liberal Unionist, he received from Lord Salisbury's government in 1890 the office of sheriff of Ross, Cromarty and Sutherland on 28 November 1890, and became sheriff of Perthshire on 27 October 1891.

On the resignation of Henry Moncreiff, 2nd Baron Moncreiff, Jameson was raised to the bench, on 6 January 1905, with the title of Lord Ardwall. In the same year he was made an honorary LLD of the University of St Andrews. After an illness of about six months he died, at 14 Moray Place, Edinburgh, on 21 November 1911, and was buried at Anwoth in Kirkcudbrightshire.

Interests
Jameson conducted inquiries on behalf of the government, acted as an arbiter in industrial disputes, and was for some years, in succession to Lord James of Hereford, chairman of the board of conciliation, between the coalowners and Scottish Miners' Federation. As a member of the Free Church of Scotland, he supported Robert Rainy in promoting its union with the United Presbyterians (1900), though he had opposed Rainy during the agitation for disestablishing the Church of Scotland. During the later part of his career he paid attention to agriculture.

Family
In 1875 Jameson married Christian, daughter of John Gordon Brown of Lochanhead and niece of Walter McCulloch of Ardwall in Kirkcudbrightshire, from whom she inherited the estate after which the judge took his title. They had one daughter and three sons, the eldest, Andrew, and youngest of whom entered the army. The second, John Gordon Jameson, advocate, unsuccessfully contested the 1912 Edinburgh East by-election, as a Unionist.

title: Santa Marta, Naples

text:
Santa Marta is a Roman Catholic church located on Via Benedetto Croce (part of Spaccanapoli, in central Naples, Italy. It is located parallel to the convent of Santa Chiara, and stands in front of the Palazzo Filomarino della Rocca.

History
The church was founded in the 15th century by Margherita di Durazzo, mother of King Ladislaus of Naples. The original architect was Andrea Ciccione. Originally belonging to an aristocratic Confraternity, it passed on to a confraternity of Ricamatori. The aristocratic confraternity kept a codex that serves as a contemporary annotation of the heraldry of the nobility of the era. During the Masaniello's Revolution of 1647, the church was sacked and burned. Destroyed was a painting of St Lazarus by Cesare Turco, a Virgin by Bartolomeo Guelfo of Pistoia, and portraits of Margherita e Ladislao. After the revolution, the Prince of Rocca Filomarino, whose palace was in front, rebuilt the church. A further restoration occurred in 1715. The facade and walls retain some elements of the 14th century church. The main altarpiece has San Marta by Andrea Vaccaro and Nicola Vaccaro; a Virgin with Saints Giuseppe and Gennaro by either Ferdinando Sanfelice, or Giovanni Bernardo Lama; a Birth of the Virgin by Salvatore Giusti, and a small Virgin and child by Pacecco de Rosa. The church is only sporadically open and in need of restoration.

title: Assassination of Khaled Mosharraf

text:
Major General Khaled Mosharraf was assassinated on November 7, 1975. He was a Bangladeshi military officer who was the Sector Commander of Bangladesh Forces Sector 2 and K-Force Brigade Commander during the Bangladesh Liberation War.

Khaled Mosharraf was killed along with two fellow officers after an attempted coup that went futile after a counter-coup.

Background

On August 15, 1975, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was assassinated by sundry officers of Bangladesh Army. After the assassination, Khondaker Mostaq Ahmad took oath as the President of Bangladesh according to the prescription of the killer officers. They captured the Bangabhaban (president's official residence) and started dictating the President, causing fresh chaos in the new nation.

Mosharraf decided to stop the killers residing inside the Bangabhaban and staged a coup d'état among the Bangladesh Army. He declared himself the Chief of Military Staff on November 3, 1975. According to his order the Chief of Military Staff of the Bangladesh Army Major General Ziaur Rahman was put under house arrest. On November 6, Mosharraf was selected as one of the Deputy Chief Martial Law Administrators.

On November 7, 1975, the soldiers of Bangladesh Army staged a mutiny.

Plot

The plot to kill Mosharraf, as well as some senior officers including Colonel Shafaat Jamil, was a part of the plot to stage the November 7 coup.

After the November 3 coup was staged by Mosharraf with the help of Colonel Shafaat Jamil, the Chief of Biplobi Sainik Sanstha (Revolutionary Soldiers' Establishment) Colonel Abu Taher took steps to organize a counter coup to free Major General Ziaur Rahman and establish a classless military in Bangladesh like the People's Liberation Army of China.

Abu Taher using his Biplobi Sainik Sanstha started propagating against Mosharraf, Shafaat Jamil, Colonel Nazmul Huda and other November 3 coup leaders as Indian agents. They distributed leaflets to the soldiers agitating them against Mosharraf and their anti-Indian sentiment to prove him as an agent of India. Taher also used the popularity of detained Ziaur Rahman to convince the ordinary soldiers to revolt against the establishment of officers in Bangladesh Army.

In addition, the members of Biplobi Sainik Sanstha were thoroughly directed by their leader to shoot down Mosharraf and Jamil at any instant.

Jamil, who was serving as the Brigade Commander of 46 Infantry Brigade of Bangladesh Army at Dhaka cantonment came to know about the plot while leaving the cantonment for Bangabhaban after receiving a phone call from Mosharraf at 10 PM on the night of November 6, 1975. The Brigade Major Hafiz and a Junior Commissioned Officer of 1st East Bengal Regiment confirmed him about the deadly plan of Biplobi Sainik Sanstha.

Jamil rushed to the Bangabhaban and described the plot to the newly appointed Chief of Staff who was messed up with some political issues. Mosharraf turned a deaf ear and eased the coup.

Events

The assassination of Mosharraf is linked with several events that took place during the night of November 6, 1975. Conspirators from different corners wanted to finish off the freedom fighter that night.

Hours before the November 7 mutiny was kicked off Mosharraf was at Bangabhaban. He was arguing with the Chief of Bangladesh Navy and the Chief of Bangladesh Air Force regarding the distribution of power among them under the Martial Law. Jamil was called to solve the issue. When Jamil told Mosharraf about the nascent coup in the cantonment, Mosharraf did not take it seriously and continued his talk with the officers.

Mosharraf got a call from the Dhaka Cantonment. He was informed about the mutiny in the cantonment on that call. He left the Bangabhaban without wasting a second along with Colonel Haider and Colonel Huda. He also asked Jamil to stay in the Bangabhaban.

Ziaur Rahman was freed minutes after the coup was launched. Rahman was taken to the office of 2nd Field Artillery Regiment. The Chief of Staff asked the soldiers and junior officers to call all the senior officers. He firmly ordered that he wants no further bloodshed. Jamil got a phone call from the Rahman around 3 AM. Rahman asked him to reconcile.

When the entire cantonment was celebrating the leader of the abortive coup, Mosharraf and his two fellows were travelling in a car in search of a safe place. They went to the resident of former Jatiya Rakkhi Bahini Chief Colonel Nuruzzaman at 2 AM. They changed their clothes there. While staying at the place  Mosharraf heard gunfire. The driver of their car, Amir was panicked and started shouting.

Mosharraf discharged the driver and asked Huda to drive the car. Then they went to the house of a relative of  Mosharraf. Mosharraf called some individuals using the land phone of his relative. At first he inquired about the situation in 4th East Bengal Regiment to Lieutenant Kamrul who picked up his phone call.  Kamrul told him the situation. Later he called Colonel Nawazish Ahmed of 10th East Bengal Regiment. Ahmed assured him of security.

After being assured of his security, Mosharraf started for the camp of 10th East Bengal Regiment at Sher-e-Bangla Nagar. On their way to Sher-e-Bangla Nagar, Huda met an accident. They went to a clinic named Fatima Nursing Home of Mohammadpur. Then they walked to the camp of 10th East Bengal Regiment. When they reached the camp, some soldiers of the regiment stopped them and took away their guns.

Ahmed informed Rahman about the presence of Mosharraf in his camp. Knowing this, Rahman asked Nawazish to ensure the security of  Mosharraf and to protect him from any possible assault. He also urged them not to panic. Then he talked with Major Jalil, another officer of the regiment and directed him to assist Nawazish to save the trio. Colonel Taher, who was in the room with Rahman while he was talking to Colonel Nawazish, went out at some point for almost 15 minutes after he came to know about the exact location of Mosharraf.

Assassination

Nawazish, after getting assurance of the Chief of Staff, arranged some breakfast for the officers. Just as the three men were being served the breakfast some other men in uniform, probably Taher's Biplobi Sainik Sanstha personnel, rushed into the room, forced the three out at gunpoint, then shot and bayoneted them to death.

According to some internal military sources, some of the Biplobi Sainik Sanstha personnel gave the message to kill all three officers to Colonel Asaduzzaman who allegedly led the assassination.

Early works

In 1971, he began experimenting with abstract video art, while living in Santa Barbara, California. That year, Devyatkin met Nam June Paik, who advised him to visit the newly organized theater The Kitchen in New York. Upon meeting the founders, Steina and Woody Vasulka, he became the video director between 1971 and 1973, organizing video and electronic art performances nearly every day for two years. He organized video shows in the United States and Europe. These include a US Department of State sponsored tour of Amerika Haus centers in six German cities and shows at the American Cultural Centers in Paris and London.

Film studies in Russia

In 1973, Devyatkin went to Moscow as an exchange student, studying Russian at Moscow State University and documentary film making under Russian director Roman Karmen at VGIK, the Gerasimov Institute of Cinematography. He met and worked with many other famous Russian filmmakers and participated in several popular feature films. Devyatkin videotaped performances by the Taganka Theatre, including Hamlet starring Russian actor Vladimir Vysotsky, and the play Ten Days That Shook the World based on the book of the same name.(see)

Digital video art

Devyatkin organized an international Computer Arts Festival at The Kitchen, which was held successfully for four years. At the 1973 festival, Devyatkin introduced early examples of computer generated film, video, graphics and music from around the world. Devyatkin presented "a remarkably beautiful series of color alterations and shape distortions." Devyatkin's video piece The Sordid Affair is an outstanding example of political video art, a full expression of free speech.(see)

Hidden human potential

Thanks to his friendship with visionary Joseph Goldin, Devyatkin documented experiments and demonstrations of hidden mental abilities. He videotaped music and light psychotherapy experiments conducted by Natalia Bekhtereva and psychological teaching methods such as Suggestopedia. Devyatkin's work is mentioned in Psychic Discoveries Behind the Iron Curtain. Devyatkin's 1974 documentary Suggestopedia: A Science of Learning was shown widely.(see) In his ongoing coverage of hidden human potential, Devyatkin recorded Porfiry Ivanov, origins of the Lamaze technique and experiments in teaching newborn babies to swim.(see)

Video art in New York

In 1978, Devyatkin collaborated with Nam June Paik to produce a light hearted comparison of life in the two cities, Media Shuttle: New York-Moscow on WNET. The video is held in museum collections around the world.
He documented the marriage of two Fluxus pioneers, George Maciunas and Billie Hutching in a series of Fluxus style performances in SoHo, Manhattan.
In 1978, he assisted the artist Charlotte Moorman to organize the Annual Avant Garde Festival of New York held that year on the Staten Island Ferry. He spent time with John Lennon and invited him to teach a course the next day at the alternative high school where he was teaching, Elizabeth Cleaners Street School.

Renowned solo productions

Video from Russia: The People Speak

In 1983, Devyatkin directed Video From Russia: The People Speak, which was narrated by Margot Kidder.(see) It was aired on KABC-TV four times, WABC-TV, France 3 and Channel 4. It was nominated for an Emmy in Los Angeles. The program was described as "a rare opportunity to hear spontaneous comments from people who are lumped together in political rhetoric as our enemy." It was awarded the gold medal at the New York International Video Festival in 1984.  The project had Devyatkin travel throughout Russia, visiting six cities, and interviewing anyone on the street.  None of these interviews were set up in advance, and they aimed to gain public opinion on the Cold War from the people of Russia.  The interviews focused on toppling the ideologies and misconceptions that arise within Russia during the Cold War, along with bringing forth the common consensus from the citizens in Russia: wanting peace.

El Salvador: Names of War

Throughout the 1980s, Devyatkin produced independent films and videos in New York City. After the success of Video From Russia, he spent 6 weeks in El Salvador covering the civil war in areas controlled by the FMLN. The 1986 program, El Salvador: Names of War, shows the human face of the war. He worked with cameraman Eddie Becker and translator Berta Silva in the mountains of El Salvador to shoot battles and everyday life.(see)

title: J. Willis Hurst

text:
John Willis Hurst  (October 21, 1920 – October 1, 2011) was an American physician who served as the cardiologist of former U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson. He was the editor of Hurst's the Heart, one of the most widely used medical textbooks in the world. He also served as a former president of the American Heart Association.

Throughout his career, Hurst was recognized as a leader in cardiology.

Early life and education
John Willis Hurst was the only child of John Hurst and Verna Bell Hurst. He was born in Cooper, Kentucky, a community near Monticello, Kentucky, in Wayne County, Kentucky, on October 21, 1920. In Cooper, Hurst's father owned and operated a general store.

Eleven months after he was born, Hurst's family moved to Carrollton, Georgia. In Carrollton, Hurst's father served as the principal of a small, local school. During this time, Hurst's family lived in dormitory style housing on the school's grounds with several other teachers, including his aunt. In 1932, Hurst's father quit teaching in order to assist with the development of the Carrollton Federal Savings and Loan Association. At this time, the family moved to a single family home on Cefar Street.

Hurst graduated from Carrollton High School in 1937. He then enrolled at West Georgia College in Carrollton. At West Georgia College he met his future wife Nelie Wiley. After two years, Hurst transferred to the University of Georgia. There, he obtained a Bachelor of Science in zoology and a Bachelor of Science in chemistry.

In 1941, Hurst began his studies at the Medical College of Georgia. He graduated first in his class in 1944. He then began his internship and residency at the University Hospital in Augusta, Georgia.

Career
In 1946, after completing his residency, Hurst was drafted into the army and was stationed at Fitzsimons General Hospital near Denver, Colorado. During this time he obtained the rank of captain. His tour of duty in Denver was cut short, however, as Hurst was allowed to return home following the news of an automobile accident that killed his mother-in-law and severely injured his sister-in-law.

Then, in 1947 Hurst began working as a fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital. There he met Dr. Paul Dudley White, the Father of American cardiology, who became one of Hurst's most influential mentors. Meeting White prompted Hurst to commit to specializing in cardiology.

After completing his fellowship in Massachusetts, Hurst returned to Georgia in 1949 and briefly established a private practice in Atlanta. Then, in 1950, he accepted a job offer at Emory University.

In 1954, Hurst was drafted for the second time. He was assigned to the Bethesda Naval Hospital, where he was appointed Chief of Cardiology. On July 2, 1955, Lyndon B. Johnson, then majority leader of the senate, suffered a heart attack. It was during this incident that Hurst took on the role of Johnson's personal cardiologist. He continued to serve as Johnson's cardiologist until Johnson's death in 1973. Hurst even traveled with Johnson to 15 countries when Johnson served as the vice president during the Kennedy administration. Hurst declined the offer to serve as White House Physician during Johnson's presidency.

Hurst was honorably discharged from the military in 1955 and returned to Emory University. There, he resumed teaching and also practiced consultative cardiology. In 1957, Hurst was named the Chairman of the Department of Medicine at Emory, a position he held until 1986. Even after stepping down from the role of chairman, Hurst continued to teach at Emory. In the early 1960s, Hurst assisted with the creation of both the continuing medical education program in cardiology at Emory and the Emory Clinic. Then, in 1991, Hurst was named as a consultant to Emory's Division of Cardiology, Department of Medicine. He continued in this role until 2007. During his time at Emory, Hurst taught more than 5,000 residents and 2,500 residents and fellows.

Hurst served a term as the president of the American Heart Association and a term as the president of the Association of Professors of Medicine. He was also a member of the National Heart, Lung and Blood Council. He also served as Chairman for the Subspecialty Board of Cardiovascular Disease.

Publications
Throughout his career, Hurst edited over 60 books and published over 350 scientific articles. His works include a children's book and several novels.

title: Huanggou Pumped Storage Power Station

text:
The Huanggou Pumped Storage Power Station is a 1,200 MW pumped-storage hydroelectric power station currently under construction about  north of Mudanjiang in Hailin County of Heilongjiang Province, China. Construction on the project began on 8 May 2014. The first generator is scheduled to be commissioned in January 2019 and the project complete in January 2020. The power station operates by shifting water between an upper and lower reservoir to generate electricity. The lower reservoir, Lianhua Reservoir, is located on the Mudan River and the upper reservoir is located in a valley above the north side of the lower reservoir. During periods of low energy demand, such as at night, water is pumped from Huanggou Lower Reservoir up to the upper reservoir. When energy demand is high, the water is released back down to the lower reservoir but the pump turbines that pumped the water up now reverse mode and serve as generators to produce electricity. The process is repeated as necessary and the plant serves as a peaking power plant. It is operated by the State Grid Corporation of China.

The lower Lianhua Reservoir is created by the  tall and  long Lianhua Dam, a rock-fill dam on the Mudan River. It can withhold up to  of water. The upper reservoir is created by an  tall and  long concrete-face rock-fill dam. It can withhold up to  of water, of which  can be used for power production. Water from the upper reservoir is sent to the underground power station down near the lower reservoir through headrace/penstock pipes. The power station contains four 300 MW Francis pump turbines. The difference in elevation between the upper and lower reservoir affords a hydraulic head (water drop) of .

title: The Wild Country

text:
The Wild Country is a 1970 American Western adventure film directed by Robert Totten and starring Steve Forrest and Vera Miles. It was produced by Walt Disney Productions. The screenplay is based on the Ralph Moody book Little Britches.

Plot
In the late 1880s, Jim and Kate Tanner along with their sons Virgil and Andrew move from Pittsburgh to a farm in Wyoming, where they find the ranch in dilapidated condition. To make matters worse, Jim learns from the trapper Thompson and his Shoshone companion Two Dog that the source of the water for his land runs through property owned by the powerful rancher Ab Cross, meaning Jim is at Ab's mercy. Ab is uncooperative and refuses to stop letting his steers graze on Tanner land. Jim's threat to take Ab to court is met with laughter and Jim is told that there are no laws in their territory.

Later, when Ab learns that Jim is trying to contact the marshal in distant Cheyenne, the two men get into a fight in which Jim is injured but Ab gets knocked out. Ab retaliates by ordering his men to close a dam, cutting off the Tanner family's water supply completely. Virgil tries to unplug the dam, and while rescuing his son from Ab's men Jim is shot in the leg. The Tanner ranch is devastated by a cyclone and Kate is determined to move the family back East, but she is persuaded by Jim and Virgil to stay.

Soon after, the marshal arrives with a court order that requires Ab to open the dam. That night, as the Tanners are celebrating, they realize that their barn is on fire. As they fight the flames, Ab on horseback shoots Jim, kicks away Kate and turns to shoot Jim again, but he himself is shot dead by Virgil. Ab's men are repentant and promise to rebuild the barn, and the Tanners are finally free to live as ranchers in peace.

Production
Walt Disney Productions originally bought the rights to Ralph Moody's autobiography Little Britches in the late 1950s, but questions of casting delayed production by ten years. The working title was The Newcomers. It was shot on three working ranches at Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

Reception
Howard Thompson of The New York Times wrote, "That good old reliable, the Walt Disney organization, has done it again, quietly and commendably, with a wholesome, sturdily old-fashioned film of a Western pioneer family titled 'The Wild Country.'" Variety noted, "Romancing of Disney producers with frontier family themes for the general audience trade again finds satisfactory fulfillment in this latest effort filming the indomitable American spirit that conquered the West and helped develop a nation." Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times called it "an intelligently written and directed picture" and "one of the best Disney efforts in recent memory." Kenneth Thompson of The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote, "A delightfully old-fashioned combination of Western and pioneering drama, based on the conventional opposition between might and right, and with the honest rancher displaying exemplary tenacity in his determination to achieve a legal settlement of his grievances."

Release

Home Video
The Wild Country was released on DVD as a Disney Movie Club exclusive on May 5, 2009.  As of May 2023, the movie has not been released on blu-ray.

title: Pallacanestro Milano 1958

text:
Pallacanestro Milano 1958 is an Italian amateur basketball club based in Milan. Following an uninterrupted presence in the top tier Serie A from 1964 to 1980, the club fell down the divisions and plays in the fifth division amateur Serie C Regionale, Girone B as of the 2014–15 season.

For past club sponsorship names see sponsorship names.

History
Pallacanestro Milano was founded in 1955 by Valentino Milanaccio in order for his son and his friends from the San Gioachimo oratory to play basketball. From 1955 to 1957 it participated in the leagues of the Centro Sportivo Italiano, a Christian sporting organisation, winning the national title in 1956. The 1957–58 season saw the club join the Italian basketball federation and play in the Promozione (the fifth of the six divisions that made up the Italian basketball league system at the time).

Successive promotions saw it reach the first division Serie A by 1964.

Its heyday started in the second part of the 1960s and lasted through the 1970s where the "Other Milan" played impassioned derbies against the more prestigious Olimpia Milano, with Pallacanestro Milano the only Milan side in the Serie A during the 1976–77 season after Olimpia's relegation.

Pallacanestro Milano would stay in the top division until 1980, after which it would be relegated a number of times and progress down the league pyramid, with the national titles conquered by the youth sides a meager consolation. A new ownership from 1998 managed to rebuild the side from a perilous situation (no youth sector after a breakup, only three players affiliated to the club) with three consecutive playoff appearances but without being able to return the side to the national divisions.

title: Radiocarbon calibration

text:
Radiocarbon dating measurements produce ages in "radiocarbon years", which must be converted to calendar ages by a process called calibration.  Calibration is needed because the atmospheric : ratio, which is a key element in calculating radiocarbon ages, has not been constant historically.

Willard Libby, the inventor of radiocarbon dating, pointed out as early as 1955 the possibility that the ratio might have varied over time.  Discrepancies began to be noted between measured ages and known historical dates for artefacts, and it became clear that a correction would need to be applied to radiocarbon ages to obtain calendar dates.  Uncalibrated dates may be stated as "radiocarbon years ago", abbreviated "ya".

The term Before Present (BP) is established for reporting dates derived from radiocarbon analysis, where "present" is 1950.  Uncalibrated dates are stated as "uncal BP", and calibrated (corrected) dates as "cal BP".  Used alone, the term BP is ambiguous.

Construction of a curve

To produce a curve that can be used to relate calendar years to radiocarbon years, a sequence of securely-dated samples is needed, which can be tested to determine their radiocarbon age. Dendrochronology, or the study of tree rings, led to the first such sequence: tree rings from individual pieces of wood show characteristic sequences of rings that vary in thickness due to environmental factors such as the amount of rainfall in a given year. Those factors affect all trees in an area and so examining tree-ring sequences from old wood allows the identification of overlapping sequences. In that way, an uninterrupted sequence of tree rings can be extended far into the past. The first such published sequence, based on bristlecone pine tree rings, was created in the 1960s by Wesley Ferguson. Hans Suess used the data to publish the first calibration curve for radiocarbon dating in 1967. The curve showed two types of variation from the straight line: a long-term fluctuation with a period of about 9,000 years, and a shorter-term variation, often referred to as "wiggles", with a period of decades. Suess said that he drew the line showing the wiggles by "cosmic schwung", or freehand. It was unclear for some time whether the wiggles were real or not, but they are now well-established.

The calibration method also assumes that the temporal variation in  level is global, such that a small number of samples from a specific year are sufficient for calibration, which was experimentally verified in the 1980s.

Over the next 30 years, many calibration curves were published by using a variety of methods and statistical approaches. They were superseded by the INTCAL series of curves, beginning with INTCAL98, published in 1998, and updated in 2004, 2009, 2013 and 2020. The improvements to these curves are based on new data gathered from tree rings, varves, coral, and other studies. Significant additions to the datasets used for INTCAL13 include non-varved marine foraminifera data, and U-Th dated speleothems.  The INTCAL13 data includes separate curves for the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, as they differ systematically because of the hemisphere effect; there is also a separate marine calibration curve. The calibration curve for the southern hemisphere is known as the SHCal as opposed to the IntCal for the northern hemisphere. The most recent version being published in 2020. There is also a different curve for the period post 1955 due to atomic bomb testing creating higher levels of radiocarbon which vary based on latitude, known as bomb cal.

Methods

Probabilistic
Modern methods of calibration take the original normal distribution of radiocarbon age ranges and use it to generate a histogram showing the relative probabilities for calendar ages. This has to be done by numerical methods rather than by a formula because the calibration curve is not describable as a formula. Programs to perform these calculations include OxCal and CALIB. These can be accessed online; they allow the user to enter a date range at one standard deviation confidence for the radiocarbon ages, select a calibration curve, and produce probabilistic output both as tabular data and in graphical form.
In the example CALIB output shown at left, the input data is 1270 BP, with a standard deviation of 10 radiocarbon years. The curve selected is the northern hemisphere INTCAL13 curve, part of which is shown in the output; the vertical width of the curve corresponds to the width of the standard error in the calibration curve at that point. A normal distribution is shown at left; this is the input data, in radiocarbon years. The central darker part of the normal curve is the range within one standard deviation of the mean; the lighter grey area shows the range within two standard deviations of the mean.  The output is along the bottom axis; it is a trimodal graph, with peaks at around 710 AD, 740 AD, and 760 AD. Again, the 1σ confidence ranges are in dark grey, and the 2σ confidence ranges are in light grey.

Intercept
Before the widespread availability of personal computers made probabilistic calibration practical, a simpler "intercept" method was used. Once testing has produced a sample age in radiocarbon years with an associated error range of plus or minus one standard deviation (usually written as ±σ), the calibration curve can be used to derive a range of calendar ages for the sample. The calibration curve itself has an associated error term, which can be seen on the graph labelled "Calibration error and measurement error". This graph shows INTCAL13 data for the calendar years 3100 BP to 3500 BP. The solid line is the INTCAL13 calibration curve, and the dotted lines show the standard error range, as with the sample error, this is one standard deviation. Simply reading off the range of radiocarbon years against the dotted lines, as is shown for sample t2, in red, gives too large a range of calendar years. The error term should be the root of the sum of the squares of the two errors:

Example t1, in green on the graph, shows this procedure—the resulting error term, σtotal, is used for the range, and this range is used to read the result directly from the graph itself without reference to the lines showing the calibration error.

Variations in the calibration curve can lead to very different resulting calendar year ranges for samples with different radiocarbon ages.  The graph to the right shows the part of the INTCAL13 calibration curve from 1000 BP to 1400 BP, a range in which there are significant departures from a linear relationship between radiocarbon age and calendar age.  In places where the calibration curve is steep, and does not change direction, as in example t1 in blue on the graph to the right, the resulting calendar year range is quite narrow.  Where the curve varies significantly both up and down, a single radiocarbon date range may produce two or more separate calendar year ranges.  Example t2, in red on the graph, shows this situation: a radiocarbon age range of about 1260 BP to 1280 BP converts to three separate ranges between about 1190 BP and 1260 BP. A third possibility is that the curve is flat for some range of calendar dates; in this case, illustrated by t3, in green on the graph, a range of about 30 radiocarbon years, from 1180 BP to 1210 BP, results in a calendar year range of about a century, from 1080 BP to 1180 BP.

The intercept method is based solely on the position of the intercepts on the graph. These are taken to be the boundaries of the 68% confidence range, or one standard deviation.  However, this method does not make use of the assumption that the original radiocarbon age range is a normally distributed variable: not all dates in the radiocarbon age range are equally likely, and so not all dates in the resulting calendar year age are equally likely.  Deriving a calendar year range by means of intercepts does not take this into account.

Wiggle-matching
For a set of samples with a known sequence and separation in time such as a sequence of tree rings, the samples' radiocarbon ages form a small subset of the calibration curve. The resulting curve can then be matched to the actual calibration curve by identifying where, in the range suggested by the radiocarbon dates, the wiggles in the calibration curve best match the wiggles in the curve of sample dates. This "wiggle-matching" technique can lead to more precise dating than is possible with individual radiocarbon dates.  Since the data points on the calibration curve are five years or more apart, and since at least five points are required for a match, there must be at least a 25-year span of tree ring (or similar) data for this match to be possible. Wiggle-matching can be used in places where there is a plateau on the calibration curve, and hence can provide a much more accurate date than the intercept or probability methods are able to produce.  The technique is not restricted to tree rings; for example, a stratified tephra sequence in New Zealand, known to predate human colonization of the islands, has been dated to 1314 AD ± 12 years by wiggle-matching.

Combination of calibrated dates
When several radiocarbon dates are obtained for samples which are known or suspected to be from the same object, it may be possible to combine the measurements to get a more accurate date. Unless the samples are definitely of the same age (for example, if they were both physically taken from a single item) a statistical test must be applied to determine if the dates do derive from the same object. This is done by calculating a combined error term for the radiocarbon dates for the samples in question, and then calculating a pooled mean age. It is then possible to apply a T test to determine if the samples have the same true mean. Once this is done the error for the pooled mean age can be calculated, giving a final answer of a single date and range, with a narrower probability distribution (i.e., greater accuracy) as a result of the combined measurements.

Bayesian statistical techniques can be applied when there are several radiocarbon dates to be calibrated.  For example, if a series of radiocarbon dates is taken from different levels in a given stratigraphic sequence, Bayesian analysis can help determine if some of the dates should be discarded as anomalies, and can use the information to improve the output probability distributions.

title: Wild Mouse (Lagoon)

text:
Wild Mouse is a Maurer steel roller coaster currently operating at Lagoon Amusement Park in Farmington, Utah.

History

Previous Wild Mouse Rides at Lagoon
Wild Mouse opened as a wooden roller coaster in 1965 after being relocated from the Seattle World's Fair. After operating in its location in Lagoon's North Midway, it was eventually retired in 1971.

In 1973, the Wild Mouse roller coaster returned to Lagoon as "The New Wilder Wild Mouse." The new version of the ride was located at the South Midway, in the same location where the current Wild Mouse operates. Since this ride featured the same layout and look of the previous Wild Mouse, it's assumed this is the same ride installed in 1965. This version of the ride operated until 1989, when Lagoon decided to retire the Wild Mouse again.

A common myth among local Utah residents is that one of these Wild Mouse coasters has had one or more severe accidents causing injury or death. However, there has been no verifiable evidence to conclude there has ever been a major incident on any Wild Mouse ride at Lagoon.

Current Wild Mouse Ride
On April 10, 1998, Wild Mouse returned as a steel roller coaster. This version featured a similar layout to the original and was built in the same location as the 1973 version but is an all new ride built by Maurer Söhne. In the ride's first two seasons, there was no themed tunnel (decorated to look like a house) on the ride. This element was added beginning with the 2000 season.

Layout
Like many other Wild Mouse roller coasters manufactured by Maurer Söhne, Wild Mouse features a layout that weaves in and out of itself with several hairpin turns and stiff brakes until riders reach the station again to complete the circuit.

Wild Mouse originally had a purple and yellow color scheme, but it was repainted green and yellow for the 2013 season. Cars are painted to look like cats or mice to fit the theme of the ride.

title: Edmund Stonelake

text:
Edmund Stonelake (5 April 1873 – 5 April 1960) was a Welsh local politician and a prominent figure in establishing the Labour Party in Aberdare and the Merthyr Boroughs parliamentary constituency. He was a local councillor for many years and a close associate of James Keir Hardie.

Early life
Stonelake was born in Pontlottyn in the Rhymney Valley but came to Aberdare with his widowed mother around 1888.

Public life
Stonelake elected unopposed to the Aberdare Urban District Council in 1904. He retained his seat in 1907. He became chairman of the Council 1910. During the pre-war period he was a prominent advocate of building council houses, a programme that commenced before the First World War and continued thereafter. In 1922, however, he was forced to resign from the authority following a corruption scandal.

Later career
Stonelake was ultimately exonerated of any wrongdoing in the above episode and remained active in public life and the Labour party for many years, although he never resumed his career as an elected representative.

title: List of chapters in Records of the Grand Historian

text:
This is a list of chapters of the Records of the Grand Historian (Shiji), written by the Han dynasty historian Sima Qian.

In all, the Records is about 526,000 Chinese characters long, making it four times longer than Thucydides' History of the Peloponnesian War, and longer than the Old Testament.
Sima Qian organized the chapters of Records of the Grand Historian into five categories,  each comprising a section of the book: Annals, Tables, Treatises, Hereditary Houses, and Ranked Biographies.

Annals

Benji (本紀, annals), 12 volumes. Royal biographies in strict annalistic form that offer an overview of the most important events, especially from the time of the Zhou dynasty to that of the emperor of the Han dynasty.

Tables

Biao (表, tables), 10 tables: overview of the reigns of the successive lords of the feudal states from the time of the Zhou dynasty till that of the early Han. At the same time the most important events of their reigns are mentioned.

Treatises

Shu (書, treatises), 8 volumes. Each treatise describes an area of state interest.

Genealogies

Shijia (世家, genealogies), 30 volumes. Descriptions in chronicle form of the events of the states from the time of the Zhou Dynasty until the early Han Dynasty and of eminent people.

Biographies

Liezhuan (列傳, exemplary lives, often called biographies), 70 volumes. Biographies of important people. The biographies are limited to the description of the events that show the exemplary character of the subject, but in the Shiji is often supplemented with legends. One biography can treat two or more people if they are considered to belong to the same type. The last biographies describe the relations between the Chinese and the neighboring peoples.

Afterword

The last important section features an afterword that includes an autobiography by Sima Qian. He explains in it why and under what circumstances he wrote the Shiji.

title: Sports Backers

text:
Sports Backers is a non-profit organization founded in 1991 and located in Richmond, Virginia at Sports Backers Stadium. The mission of the Sports Backers has expanded from its beginnings as a traditional sports commission for economic development to be focused on increasing physical activity to improve the health of area residents. The Sports Backers created Movement Makers, a national active living conference to encourage community health organizations that promote physical activity to have a place to gather and learn from each other.  The annual event takes place in Richmond, Virginia and occurs at the same time as Dominion Riverrock.
The Sports Backers own Dominion Riverrock, the largest outdoor sports and music festival in the country, the Ukrop's Monument Avenue 10k, the 8th largest running race in the United States, and the Anthem Richmond Marathon, the 18th largest marathon in the country. The organization owns and produces 15 events.  The organization also supports other organizations with more than 24 major sports tourism events in the Richmond region receiving annual support through marketing grants, operational assistance and loaning equipment. Sports Backers was named the Member of the Year by the National Association of Sports Commissions in 2006, 2009, 2011 and 2015. Jon Lugbill is the organization's executive director and has been leading the organization since 1993.

The Sports Backers training teams provide local residents a way to prepare for local road races.  The Sports Backers Marathon, Half Marathon and 8k training teams prepared runners for the three races of the Anthem Richmond Marathon.

Active RVA

The Sports Backers added a number of programs in 2012 under the shared moniker of Active RVA, a region-wide initiative to motivate area residents, businesses and local governments to make physical activity a personal and regional priority.  The organization has started a program to certify schools and businesses that go above and beyond to increase physical activity for their students and employees.  Another program encourages the use of stairs through a stairwell signage initiative.  A fitness oasis program exists to increase fitness opportunities in underserved parts of the region.  The success of the Active RVA program is being measured through a combination of community indicators that has resulted in the region receiving a "C" grade for its overall fitness programs.

Bike Walk RVA

The Active RVA effort includes Bike Walk RVA, a program of the Sports Backers to support bike and pedestrian friendly policies, programs and infrastructure projects. The Sports Backers work with area leaders and public works staff to fund and install bike lanes, trails and sidewalks.  The strength of the program is based on 40,000 individuals from around the region that are part of the Bike Walk RVA advocacy database.  These advocates send e-mails, show up at public hearings, write letters and organize support for biking and pedestrian improvements in their neighborhoods.

The Sports Backers measure the success of the Bike Walk RVA program by measuring the total miles of bike lanes, paved trails and dirt trails added each year.  In 2012 the Sports Backers staff rode, ran or walked every mile of existing bike lanes and trails (paved and dirt) in the Richmond region.  The resulting baseline report provides the starting point for the region's bike infrastructure.

Kids Run RVA
Each year, thousands of area youth participate in the Sports Backers' Kids Run RVA program which includes a variety of ways to support and reward youth athletic achievement.  In 2014, there were 10,000 youth that took part in the Kids Challenge running and walking incentive program at elementary schools throughout the Richmond region.  Another program, the Healthy School Challenge rewarded middle and high school students for participating in the Ukrop's Monument Avenue 10k.  A particular emphasis is placed on outreach to underserved schools by offering grants and support to encourage participation in specific programs.

Scholarship program

The Sports Backers have been providing scholarships to area student athletes since 1992.  Since the start of the scholarship program, Sports Backers have given over $660,000 to more than 395 student athletes.   In 2014, the organization provided $65,000 in scholarship funds to area student athletes.  The organization also provides recognition and financial awards for the top high school athletic teams and the "comeback athletes" of the year.
