title: Walter Schott

text:
Walter Schott (18 September 1861, Ilsenburg - 2 September 1938, Berlin) was a German sculptor and art professor.

Life
His father, , was a well-known metallurgist who was the manager and inspector at the smelters of Count Heinrich zu Stolberg-Wernigerode. After completing his standard education, he studied in Hanover from 1880 to 1883, at the Prussian Academy of Arts under Fritz Schaper.

After 1885, he worked as a free-lance sculptor in Berlin, creating statues in the prevailing Neo-Baroque style.

Over the years, he became almost totally dependent on the Kaiser's patronage and found little work to do after World War I, a fate which befell many creative artists too closely associated with the Imperial government. In 1930, he wrote an autobiography, defending his position and assailing his critics.

He died in poverty. His remains were cremated and his ashes placed in an urn at his father's grave in Ilsenburg.

Selected major works

 Mecklenburg
 Three Dancing Maidens, Nymphenbrunnen (Nymph Fountain), also referred to as Drei tanzende Mädchen. The original is believed to be in the park of Schlitz Castle near Lake Malchin, but there are several copies, most notably one in Central Park, New York, known as the Untermyer Fountain, and another in front of the Kasteel Den Brandt in Den Brandt Park in Antwerp.  Several other three-quarter size copies are also known.
 Berlin
 Figure Group 1 in the Siegesallee (Victory Avenue) project of Wilhelm II, consisting of Albert the Bear (first Margrave of Brandenburg) as the central figure; flanked by Bishop Wigger von Brandenburg (d.1161) and Bishop Otto of Bamberg. The statues were vandalized shortly after their dedication in 1898 and were severely damaged in World War II. They are now on display at the Spandau Citadel.
 Grave memorial for Else von Falckenberg in the Jerusalem II Friedhof am Halleschen Tor.
 Statue of William I, Prince of Orange in front of the Stadtschloss. The original was destroyed in World War II, but a copy of the statue in Wiesbaden, dating from 1908, still exists.
 Diana mit Windhunden (greyhounds), Bronze, 1926. Presented as a gift to the city of Berlin by the AEG in 1953. Currently in Humboldthain Park, Berlin-Gesundbrunnen
 Saalburg
 Bust of Kaiser Wilhelm II. It was placed in storage by the Communist government in 1955 and was restored in 1998 as part of the ceremonies accompanying the 100th anniversary of the Saalburg's restoration.
 Battlefield at Gravelotte in Alsace
 Monument honoring the First Foot Guards. It was unique among monuments relating to the Franco-Prussian War in that it also honored the fallen French soldiers. This was done at the suggestion of the Kaiser. After World War I, when Alsace was once again part of France, the French government removed the central angel figure and offered to sell it back to Germany. When the offer was refused, the statue was melted down. The base of the monument is still there.

title: Justin Flom

text:
Justin Flom (born April 29, 1986) is an American illusionist. He is best known for his YouTube series along with his television show Wizard Wars in which he performs magic with ordinary objects.  Along with his video and television work, he performs live with either his own touring show or opening for music acts in large venues.

Early life
Born in Edina, Minnesota, Flom was raised in a family of magicians (his father and uncle were practicing magicians). He has two brothers and a sister. Flom started  doing magic at an early age with his siblings. He was homeschooled.

Career

Branson, Missouri, 2005–2009
In 2005 Justin skipped college and instead took his show to The Branson Mall Music Theatre in Branson, Missouri where he was the youngest headliner on the strip. He built above the Majestic Steak House, The Imaginary Theatre and Magic Parlor, which opened July 1, 2006 In 2011, wanting to make more magic videos online, he began working on new tricks.

YouTube 2012–2013
Justin’s Magic Block Party, filmed in Eden Prairie summer of 2012, caught the eye of Ellen DeGeneres and she put him on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. He then became a regular guest on her show. Flom was named Best Up and Coming Entertainer of the Year by Las Vegas Weekly.

2014
In 2014, James Galea formed the Band of Magicians with Justin Flom, Justin Willman, and Nate Staniforth.

In 2014, Syfy Television network filmed a new show, Wizard Wars, starring Justin Flom along with Penn and Teller and several other magicians competing to create magic out of ordinary objects on the spot. Justin is also an associate producer of Wizard Wars and the show is based on an idea of Rick Lax's from Justin's YouTube channel. Justin is lead Wizard on the series. Over a million people watched the Wizard Wars series premiere. The episode highlighted Canadian illusionists Chris Funk and Ekaterina, who ended up losing the "Wizard War" to Justin.

2015–2017
Justin played a part in a WWE storyline on Smackdown showing magic to the superstars backstage and smashing an egg on the face of The Miz, further adding to the rift between him and Mizdow (also known as Damien Sandow). Justin was on promoting the new season of Wizard Wars which followed that January 29, 2015 episode of Smackdown.

In 2015, Justin opened for country music group Florida Georgia Line on their arena tour.

Most of Flom's time is spent making YouTube and Snapchat videos while performing live magic around the United States. His wife, Jocelynn Flom, films all the videos while Justin personally edits the footage.

2018
2018 opened with Justin Flom's online videos reaching new levels of share-ability with Sawing a Baby in Half, in which he performed the classic "sawing a lady in half" but with his 4-month-old daughter, and with various other magic effects all exceeding 100 million views.

2019
Justin was a contestant on The World's Best where he advanced to the champion rounds.

2020s
During the worldwide pandemic, Justin started creating Facebook videos full-time and became one of the top 5 U.S. Facebook pages with the highest reach beating out Donald Trump and Fox News.  In 2020 alone his content has had 6.4 billion minutes viewed on Facebook's platform.

Between 2020 and 2022, Justin filmed over 2,000 videos with views totaling over 20 billion on Facebook. His page was the most viewed Facebook page worldwide for the month of January 2022 and February of the same year.  As a magician, Justin often exposes long-guarded trade secrets of magic tricks. Criticism was leveled at Flom by magicians, and he was barred from several magic organizations.

Personal life
Justin married Jocelynn Sharp in 2009. The couple then moved to Las Vegas to partner with top magic creators.

In late-2020, he was hospitalized with sepsis complicated with a cardiac embolism, which was brought on by an infected paper cut.

In Spring 2021 Justin and Jocelynn split up.

title: John Quenneville

text:
John Quenneville (born April 16, 1996) is a Canadian professional ice hockey player who is currently playing with the Belleville Senators of the American Hockey League (AHL). Quenneville was selected by the New Jersey Devils in the first round (30th overall) of the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.

Playing career

Junior
Quenneville was selected by the Brandon Wheat Kings in the 3rd round (54th overall) of the 2011 WHL Bantam Draft. He played with the Brandon Wheat Kings from the 2012–13 WHL season to 2015–16 WHL season.

While playing with the Wheat Kings, Quenneville was rated as a top prospect who was viewed as a possible first round selection heading into the 2014 NHL Entry Draft. He was eventually drafted 30th overall by the New Jersey Devils in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.

Professional
On July 13, 2015, Quenneville signed a three-year entry level contract with the Devils, and after concluding his WHL career that season he subsequently joined the Albany Devils for the 2016–17 season. He made his NHL debut on December 1, 2016, against the Chicago Blackhawks. On January 5, 2017, Quennville was named to the 2017 AHL All-Star Classic, along with Joseph Blandisi. He was recalled to the NHL on March 15, 2017, and scored his first NHL goal in a 3–2 overtime win over the New York Rangers on March 21, 2017.

On June 22, 2019, Quenneville was traded to the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for John Hayden. On June 28, the Blackhawks signed Quenneville to a two-year contract extension.

On July 21, 2021, Quenneville was selected from the Blackhawks at the 2021 NHL Expansion Draft by the Seattle Kraken. As a pending unrestricted free agent, Quenneville was not signed by the Kraken, and on August 10, 2021, he agreed to his first contract abroad in accepting a tryout arrangement with Swiss club, ZSC Lions of the National League (NL). Through making an initial positive impression, Quenneville converted his tryout into a one-year deal for the remainder of the 2021–22 season on September 5, 2021. He concluded his first European season, collected 20 goals and 37 points through 46 regular season games.

Remaining in Europe, Quenneville as a free agent secured a contract with Swedish top flight club, Leksands IF of the Swedish Hockey League (SHL), on July 15, 2022. In the following 2022–23 season, Quenneville was limited through injury however registered 12 points through 19 regular season games with Leksands before opting for a release to return to North America.

On February 2, 2023, Quenneville returned to the AHL by signing for the remainder of the season with the Belleville Senators, the primary affiliate of the Ottawa Senators.

International play
As a 16-year-old, Quenneville was chosen to compete with the Canada Pacific squad at the 2013 World U-17 Hockey Challenge, and he helped Team Canada capture the bronze medal at the 2014 IIHF World U18 Championships.

Personal life
Quenneville's older brother Peter was drafted in the seventh round by the Columbus Blue Jackets in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft, and his younger brother  was drafted 200th overall in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. Former NHL player and head coach Joel Quenneville is his first cousin, once-removed. Former NHL defenceman Johnny Boychuk is his uncle by marriage.

text:
The Huangdeng Dam is a gravity dam recently completed on the Lancang (Mekong) River in Lanping Bai and Pumi Autonomous County of Yunnan Province, China. The fact that work on the dam was begun without formal approval from the central government was a subject of some controversy.

Construction on the dam began in 2010 and its 1,900 MW hydroelectric power station was initially planned to be operational in 2016, with the entire project complete in 2018. The first unit was put into operation in July 2018 and the dam was fully commissioned in January 2019.

title: Xfrog

text:
Xfrog  (X Window Finite Recursive Object Generator) is 3D computer graphics software that runs on Microsoft Windows or as a plug-in for Windows and Mac-OS versions of  Autodesk Maya and Maxon Cinema 4D. Xfrog was originally developed by Oliver Deussen and Bernd Lintermann while at the University of Karlsruhe based on their research into natural systems and systematic processes found in nature.

Overview
Xfrog was developed to be an intuitive modeling method and GUI for creating natural branching structures based on the rules of nature. Structure and geometry is encapsulated in objects that form the description of the model.   To define a model, icons (graphic representations of components) are assembled in a graph depicting the model’s structure and hierarchy, beginning with a root icon.   Models are saved in the proprietary Xfrog .xfr format, a text file that contains the complete set of parametric rules for the procedural "Frog"engine to interpret and draw the polygonal model.

History
The first version of Xfrog was released as shareware in 1996 for Silicon Graphics, Sun Microsystems and Linux by Lintermann und Deussen GbR under the name GreenWorks Organic Software. The first customers were Industrial Light and Magic and Disney Imagineering. Xfrog 1.0 did not contain key frame or procedural recursive animation capabilities, but in 1998 Xfrog 2.0 introduced animation capabilities.  It was released for the first time as a plugin for Maya 1.0 making Greenworks the first professional plugin developer for Maya.  The stand-alone application was ported from SGI to Windows and introduced as Xfrog 3.0 at SIGGRAPH 2000. In 2006, Xfrog’s first Cinema 4D plugin, Xfrog 4 for Cinema 4D, added all the components of 3.5 to the Cinema 4D interface.   Currently, both the Cinema 4D and Maya plugins are at version 5.2.

title: Souvigny Priory

text:
Souvigny Priory (), in the commune of Souvigny, Allier, France, in the centre of the old province of the Bourbonnais, was formerly a Cluniac priory, of which the church remains in operation.

History
In the 10th century Aymar sire de Bourbon gave land in Souvigny to Cluny Abbey for the construction of a monastery. Some years later, two distinguished abbots of Cluny, Mayeul of Cluny and Odilo of Cluny (Odilon de Mercoeur), came here to die, one after the other, and were buried here. This made the priory a place of pilgrimage: even Hugh Capet, King of France, came here in 994 after the death of Mayeul. The church was rebuilt to accommodate the increasing numbers of worshippers, on the model of Cluny III, including two transepts, a choir with an ambulatory, and three towers. The Dukes of Bourbon made it their place of burial. Many chapels were added, and the upper parts of the church were rebuilt, with cross vaults.

In 1097, Pope Urban II passed through Souvigny and while he was there confirmed by a Papal bull the possession of the church of Marigny to Bernard, fourth prior. This possession was confirmed again by a bull of Pope Eugene III dated 29 February 1152. In 1393, the provincial visitors instructed the prior to oblige the chantry to instruct children.

Souvigny, as one of the five oldest daughter houses of Cluny, owned many parishes and small priories, which made it wealthy. Its priories included those of Saint-Patrocle-de-Colombier, Chantenay-Saint-Imbert, Mars-sur-Allier and Montempuis (Saint-Parize-en-Viry).

The dedication varied between Saint Peter, Saint Mayeul and Saints Peter and Paul.

The priory was closed down and largely dismantled in the French Revolution, but the church survived and was reopened for worship in 1852. It was declared a monument historique on 5 August 1919.

Architecture

Priory church

The imposing priory church is part Romanesque and part Gothic. The structure is Romanesque but the vaulting is Gothic. The west front was reconstructed in the Gothic period while retaining the two Romanesque belltowers on top of it. This priory, because it was owned by the powerful Cluny Abbey, made it possible for the Burgundian style to develop in the numerous Romanesque churches of the Souvigny region.

The church measures 84 metres in length; the vaulted roof is 17 metres high at its highest point.

A carved Romanesque pillar was discovered in the church depicting a calendar with the farming works of each month, known as the "Zodiac of Souvigny".

Conventual buildings
The cloister, chapter room and porter's lodge are the principal conventual buildings still extant. The cloister was refurbished in 1432.

Monumental effigies
The church formerly contained many tombs of the seigneurial and later ducal family of Bourbon, some of which were destroyed in the Revolution. Those of Saints Mayeul and Odilo were rediscovered in the early 21st century.

title: Magnetoquasistatic field

text:
A magnetoquasistatic field is a class of electromagnetic field in which a slowly oscillating magnetic field is dominant. A magnetoquasistatic field is typically generated by low-frequency induction from a magnetic dipole or a current loop. The magnetic near-field of such an emitter behaves differently from the more commonly used far-field electromagnetic radiation. At low frequencies the rate of change of the instantaneous field strength with each cycle is relatively slow, giving rise to the name "magneto-quasistatic". The near field or quasistatic region typically extends no more than a wavelength from the antenna, and within this region the electric and magnetic fields are approximately decoupled.

Weakly conducting non-magnetic bodies, including the human body and many mineral rocks, are effectively transparent to magnetoquasistatic fields, allowing for the transmission and reception of signals through such obstacles. Also, long-wavelength (i.e. low-frequency) signals are better able to propagate round corners than shorter-wave signals. Communication therefore need not be line-of-sight.

The communication range of such signals depends on both the wavelength and the electromagnetic properties of the intervening medium at the chosen frequency, and is typically limited to a few tens of meters.

Physical principles
The laws of primary interest are Ampère's circuital law (with the displacement current density neglected) and the magnetic flux continuity law. These laws have associated with them continuity conditions at interfaces. In the absence of magnetizable materials, these laws determine the magnetic field intensity H given its source, the current density J. H is not everywhere irrotational. However, it is solenoidal everywhere.

Equipment design
A typical antenna comprises a 50-turn coil around a polyoxymethylene tube with diameter 16.5 cm, driven by a class E oscillator circuit. Such a device is readily portable when powered by batteries. Similarly, a typical receiver consist of an active receiving loop with diameter of one meter, an ultra-low-noise amplifier, and a band-pass filter.

In operation the oscillator drives current through the transmitting loop to create an oscillating magnetic field. This field induces a voltage in the receiving loop, which is then amplified.

Because the quasistatic region is defined within one wavelength of the electromagnetic source, emitters are limited to a frequency range between about 1 kHz and 1 MHz. Reducing the oscillating frequency increases the wavelength and hence the range of the quasistatic region, but reduces the induced voltage in the receiving loops which worsens the signal-to-noise ratio. In experiments carried out by the Carnegie Institute of Technology, the maximum range reported by was 50 meters.

Applications

Resonant inductive coupling

In resonant coupling, the source and receiver are tuned to resonate at the same frequency and are given similar impedances. This allows power as well as information to flow from the source to the receiver. Such coupling via the magnetoquasistatic field is called resonant inductive coupling and can be used for wireless energy transfer.

Applications include induction cooking, induction charging of batteries and some kinds of RFID tag.

Communications
Conventional electromagnetic communication signals cannot pass through the ground. Most mineral rock is neither electrically conducting nor magnetic, allowing magnetic fields to penetrate. Magnetoquasistatic systems have been successfully used for underground wireless communication, both surface-to-underground and between underground parties.

At extremely low frequencies, below about 1 kHz, the wavelength is long enough for long-distance communication, although at a slow data rate. Such systems have been installed in submarines, with the local antenna comprising a wire up to several kilometers in length and trailed behind the vessel when at or near the surface.

Position and orientation tracking
Wireless position tracking is being increasingly used in applications such as navigation, security, and asset tracking. Conventional position tracking devices use high frequencies or microwaves, including global positioning systems (GPS), ultra-wide band (UWB) systems, and radio frequency identification systems (RFID), but these systems can easily be blocked by obstacles in their path. Magnetoquasistatic positioning takes advantage of the fact that the fields are largely undisturbed when in the presence of human beings and physical structures, and can be used for both position and orientation tracking for ranges up to 50 meters.

To accurately determine the orientation and position of a dipole/emitter, allowance must be made not only for the field pattern generated by the emitter, but also for the eddy-currents they induce in the earth, which create secondary fields detectable by the receivers. By using complex image theory to correct this field generation from earth, and by using frequencies on the order of a few hundred kilohertz to obtain the required signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), it is possible to analyze the position of the dipole through azimuthal orientation, , and inclination orientation, .

A Disney research team has used this technology to effectively determine the position and orientation of an American football, something not traceable through conventional wave propagation techniques due to human body obstruction. They inserted an oscillator-driven coil, around the diameter of the center of the ball, to generate the magnetoquasistatic field. The signal was able to pass undisturbed through multiple players.

title: Rob Kaminsky

text:
Robert Harris Kaminsky (born September 2, 1994) is an American professional baseball pitcher in the Seattle Mariners organization. He has played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the St. Louis Cardinals.

In high school, Kaminsky was the Gatorade New Jersey Baseball Player of the Year in both 2012 and 2013, named to the 2012 USA Today All-USA Team, and a 2013 Baseball America Preseason First Team All-American. In his senior year in 2013, he was 10-0 with a 0.10 ERA, averaging two strikeouts per inning while batting .506. He was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals at the age of 18 in the first round of the 2013 Major League Baseball Draft, 28th overall.

In 2013, Baseball America ranked him the Gulf Coast League's No. 8 prospect. In 2014, Kaminsky's 1.88 ERA was the best in the Midwest League of all pitchers with 100 or more innings pitched, and he was a Baseball America Low Class A All-Star. In 2015, his 2.09 ERA was 2nd-best in the Florida State League of all pitchers with 90 or more innings pitched. In 2016, his 3.28 ERA was 4th-best in the Eastern League. He made his major league debut for the Cardinals in August 2020. Kaminsky pitched for Team Israel in the 2023 World Baseball Classic.

Early life
Kaminsky was born in and grew up in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey. His parents are Donna Kaminsky, and Alan Kaminsky, a civil litigator for Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard & Smith in New York City. He has two older siblings, Joseph and Anna, and his grandfather is Bernard Kaminsky. Kaminsky is Jewish, and his bar mitzvah was based on a baseball theme. His boyhood hero was left-handed pitcher Sandy Koufax, and he said Koufax "stood up for what he believed in" when Koufax decided not to pitch Game 1 of the 1965 World Series because it was on Yom Kippur.

He is nearly completely ambidextrous; Kaminsky writes, throws a football, and shoots a basketball right-handed, but throws a baseball left-handed. In Little League, he sometimes threw left-handed and sometimes threw right-handed. He learned how to switch-hit when he was around 10 years old.

Kaminsky attended Solomon Schechter Day School of Bergen County, a Jewish day school, through eighth grade.<ref>Berger, Eric. "Cardinals’ Jewish left-hander Kaminsky hopes for a playoff role", St. Louis Jewish Light"], August 27, 2020, updated February 11, 2021. Accessed March 8, 2021. "[Q] Tell me a little about where you’re from and your Jewish upbringing. [A] I grew up in Englewood Cliffs, N.J., and live in Englewood now. I moved a nice, five-minute drive from the parents, so that’s nice. I went to Solomon Schechter [Day School of Bergen County] pre-K through eighth grade and had a great, great time there."</ref>

 High school
Kaminsky attended Saint Joseph Regional High School in Montvale, New Jersey, graduating in 2013. Initially, he was a center fielder, and in 2011 he preferred playing the outfield. He was the Gatorade New Jersey Baseball Player of the Year, and the Star-Ledger New Jersey Player of the Year, in both 2012 and 2013.James Kratch (June 23, 2013). "Robert Kaminsky of St. Joseph (Mont.) is The Star-Ledger's baseball state Player of the Year for 2013," NJ.com. In his junior year in 2012 he was 8-2 with a 0.20 earned run average (ERA), struck out 103 batters and walked 20 in 53 innings, and pitched three no-hitters and three one-hitters. He was also named to the USA Today All-USA Team.

In his senior year in 2013 Kaminsky was 10-0 with a 0.10 ERA, averaged two strikeouts per inning, gave up 14 walks as he struck out 126 in 64 innings, pitched three no-hitters and three one-hitters, while batting .506 with 3 home runs and 19 RBIs.Bob Behre (July 27, 2016). "Six Diamond Nation Players Among State's Top 25," Flemington/Raritan NJ News."Robert Kaminsky - Player Profile," Perfect Game USA.

Seattle Mariners scout Frank Rendini said: "He has a major-league curveball right now.""New Jersey Baseball POY: Robert Kaminsky," USA Today, May 28, 2013.

While in high school, Kaminsky raised over $30,000 through his Strikeout Challenge charity for the pediatric cancer ward at Englewood Hospital, as he asked supporters to donate whatever amount they chose for each strikeout he recorded in his senior year.Bryan Horowitz (January 27, 2014). "Chasing lofty goals, Cardinals phenom Rob Kaminsky up to the task; Cardinals 2013 Draft pick eager to make splash in first spring camp," mlb.com.

Career
St. Louis Cardinals
Kaminsky was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals at the age of 18 in the first round of the 2013 Major League Baseball Draft, 28th overall, after Baseball America ranked him the # 21 prospect in the draft.Scott Barancik (June 7, 2013). "Cardinals pick Jewish high-school pitcher in first round," Jewish Baseball News. He became the 12th New Jersey player drafted in the first round directly out of high school since the initial Major League Baseball draft in 1965. He signed for a signing bonus of $1.785 million, foregoing his scholarship to pitch and play center field for the University of North Carolina Tar Heels.

In 2013 he made his professional debut for the Gulf Coast Cardinals in the Rookie Gulf Coast League. Kaminsky appeared in eight games with five starts and had a 3.68 ERA and 28 strikeouts in 22 innings pitched. Baseball America ranked him the Gulf Coast League's No. 8 prospect in 2013.

Kaminsky pitched in 2014 for the Peoria Chiefs of the Class A Midwest League, where he was three years younger than the average player.Daniel Makarewicz (June 1, 2014).  In 2014, he appeared in 18 games, all starts, going 8-2 (his 8 wins were 8th among Cardinals minor leaguers) with a 1.88 ERA (the best ERA in the league of all pitchers with 100 or more innings pitched), a 1.013 WHIP (9th among Cardinals minor leaguers), and a .194/.266/.251 batting-average-against and slash line against."Midwest League (LoA) 2014," Baseball America. He was named a Baseball America Low Class A All Star, and Scout named him the best left-handed starter in the Cardinals' minor league system.Sam Dykstra (July 30, 2015). "Indians acquire Kaminsky in Moss deal; Cardinals send No. 3 prospect to Cleveland in exchange for outfielder," MiLB.com. Peoria pitching coach, and former major leaguer, Jason Simontacchi said: "there’s no question he’s got stuff that could play in the big leagues."

Cleveland Indians
On July 30, 2015, the Cardinals traded Kaminsky to the Cleveland Indians for All Star outfielder/first baseman Brandon Moss. At the time, MLB.com ranked Kaminsky the No. 3 prospect in the St. Louis organization, and 88th overall, and Scout ranked him the best pitcher in the Cardinals' minor league system. Kaminsky finished 2015 with a 6-6 record and a 2.24 ERA. He split it between the Palm Beach Cardinals of the Class A+ Florida State League (where his 2.09 ERA was 2nd-best in the league, of all pitchers with 90 or more innings pitched, he kept opponents to a .228 batting-average-against, and he was one of only two pitchers—from among 393 pitchers—in the minor leagues who did not give up a home run in 90 or more innings) and the Lynchburg Hillcats of the Class A+ Carolina League.Jim Callis (July 30, 2015). "Rob Kaminsky deal a strong trade for Indians; Cleveland gets touted left-handed prospect in exchange for power bat," mlb.com. He was ranked the No. 3 prospect, and top pitching prospect, in the Cleveland Indians organization.Jason Phillips (October 14, 2015). "Rob Kaminsky's strong season validates his role as the Cleveland Indians top pitching prospect," SB Nation.

Kaminsky spent the 2016 season with the Akron RubberDucks of the Double-A Eastern League, where he posted an 11-7 record (his 11 wins were tied for 3rd-best in the league) and a 3.28 ERA (4th in the league). He was 2nd in the league in fewest-hits-per-9-innings (8.01), tied for 3rd in wins, and 4th in ground ball/fly ball ratio (1.70)."Eastern League (AA); 2016," Baseball America. He was one of the youngest players on the team, at 21 years old, and about 3.5 years younger than the average player in the Eastern League.

Kaminsky's three main pitches as of 2016 were an 89-91 mph fastball with some movement that can reach 95 mph, a sharp-breaking upper-70s curveball, and a changeup. In his minor league career, he has induced a high level of ground ball outs, and a low batting-average-against.

In 2017 with Akron, he was placed on the disabled list with left forearm soreness after one start, and did not pitch during the remainder of the season. In August 2017 Kaminsky wrote an article entitled "Life in the minors, working toward a dream; An inside look at the life and grind of the competitive minor leagues, as told by Indians pitching prospect Rob Kaminsky."

In 2018 Kaminsky pitched two scoreless innings for Lynchburg, and then pitched 26.1 innings over 23 games out of the bullpen for Akron, going 1-1 with 4 saves and a 3.28 ERA and holding batters to a 69% ground ball rate.Mike Rosenbaum (October 26, 2018). "Indians Chu takes on AFL after Triple-A stop," MLB.com. Kaminsky then pitched for the Glendale Desert Dogs in the Arizona Fall League, was picked for the league's Fall Stars Game, and in 10 relief appearances during the season was 3-0 with a 1.64 ERA.Wayne Cavadi (November 3, 2018). "Blue Jays: Vladimir Guerrero, Jr. tops Fall Stars Game starting lineups," Minor League Ball.

In 2019 he pitched for both Akron, for whom he was 2-1 with one save in 19 relief appearances with a 2.30 ERA in 31.1 innings, and for the Columbus Clippers of the Class AAA International League, for whom Kaminsky was 1-0 with one save in 23 relief appearances with a 5.11 ERA in 24.2 innings in which he struck out 31 batters and induced a 59.1% ground ball rate.

Kaminsky elected minor league free agency on November 4, 2019. The day he became a minor league free agent, the Cardinals made him an offer.

St. Louis Cardinals (second stint)
On December 12, 2019, Kaminsky signed a minor league deal with the St. Louis Cardinals, and was invited to major league spring training as a non-roster player. In July 2020 he was added to the Cardinals' 60-player roster pool.

On August 15, 2020, Kaminsky was promoted to the major leagues for the first time.  He made his major league debut for the Cardinals on August 16. Kaminsky was designated for assignment by the Cardinals on September 16; he cleared waivers, remained in the organization, and was outrighted by the Cardinals to their alternate site.

In the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, Kaminsky was 0-0 with a 1.93 ERA in 5 games in which he pitched 4.2 innings. Kaminsky induced a 60% groundball rate. On September 16, 2020, Kaminsky was designated for assignment by the Cardinals. He was outrighted to the alternate training site on September 18 and became a free agent on November 2. Sportswriter Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch'' said: "This has perplexed some of us around the team... He pitched well for them, was a good depth fit."

Philadelphia Phillies
On April 18, 2021, Kaminsky signed a minor league contract with the Philadelphia Phillies organization. In his lone appearance for the Triple-A Lehigh Valley IronPigs, Kaminsky struck out 2 over one scoreless inning. On August 5, 2021, Kaminsky was released by the Phillies.

Seattle Mariners
On April 6, 2022, Kaminsky signed a minor league contract with the Seattle Mariners organization. Pitching for the Double-A Arkansas Travelers in 2022, he was 3-1 with one save, a 4.91 ERA and 39 strikeouts across 39 relief appearances covering 36.2 innings. He elected free agency on November 10, 2022.

On April 14, 2023, Kaminsky re-signed with the Mariners on a minor league contract. They assigned him to the Triple-A Tacoma Rainiers.

International career
Kaminsky played for the Team Israel in the 2023 World Baseball Classic.

title: Fernando de Argüello

text:
Fernando de Argüello  was a Spanish soldier who served as Governor of New Mexico, between 1644 and 1647.

Career
Fernando de Arguello Carvajal joined the Spanish Army in his youth, and eventually became a Captain.

Arguello was appointed Governor of Santa Fe de Nuevo México  on 6 December 1644.

During the Fernando de Arguello administration, a conspiracy was formed by the Jemez Pueblo. Arguello was warned of a possible joint revolt of the Jemez and Apache peoples. The Jemez and Apache were thinking of revolting because of Spanish settlements in New Mexico and Franciscan abuse against them. After the revolt, Arguello hanged twenty-nine Jemez for treason and alliance with the Apaches. Forty other Native Americans were whipped and imprisoned.

However, on 4 May 1647, Carvajal was sent to Mexico City and imprisoned for offences against the Crown. However, Arguello fled to somewhere near Parral (in Chihuahua, modern Mexico). All the properties he had were appropriated and destroyed and the Spanish Crown sent another military force to Santa Fe de Mexico City to replace him as governor of the province. The Crown appointed to Luis de Guzmán y Figueroa in place Arguello as governor of New Mexico.

title: Carbon monoxide-releasing molecules

text:
Carbon monoxide-releasing molecules (CORMs) are chemical compounds designed to release controlled amounts of carbon monoxide (CO). CORMs are being developed as potential therapeutic agents to locally deliver CO to cells and tissues, thus overcoming limitations of CO gas inhalation protocols.

CO is best known for its toxicity in carbon monoxide poisoning at high doses. However, CO is a gasotransmitter and supplemental low dosage of CO has been linked to therapeutic benefits. Pre-clinical research has focused on CO's anti-inflammatory activity with significant applications in cardiovascular disease, oncology, transplant surgery, and neuroprotection.

History
The simplest source of CO is from a combustion reaction via burning sources such as fossil fuels or fire wood. Sources releasing CO upon thermal decomposition or combustion are generally not considered CORMs.

Therapeutic interest in CO dates back to the study of factitious airs (hydrocarbonate) in the 1790s by Thomas Beddoes, James Watt, James Lind, Humphry Davy, Tiberius Cavallo and many others.

Nickel tetracarbonyl was the first carbonyl-complex used to achieve local delivery of CO and was the first CO delivery molecule suggested to have therapeutic potential in 1891. The acronym CORM was coined in 2002 which marks the first modern biomedical and pharmaceutical initiative. The enzymatic reaction of heme oxygenase inspired the development of synthetic CORMs.

The first synthetic CORMs were typically metal carbonyl complexes. A representative CORM that has been extensively characterized both from a biochemical and pharmacological view point is the ruthenium(II) complex Ru(glycinate)Cl(CO)3, commonly known as CORM-3. Therapeutic data pertaining to metallic CORMs are being reappraised to elucidate if observed effects are actually due to CO, or, if metal reactivity mediates physiological effects via thiol depletion, facilitating reduction, ion channel blockage, or redox catalysis. Despite questions pertaining to transition metals, pure CO gas and alternative non-metallic CO prodrugs and drug delivery devices have confirmed CO's therapeutic potential.

CORM classifications

Transition metal CORMs
The majority of therapeutically relevant CORMs are transition metal complexes primarily based on iron, molybdenum, ruthenium, manganese, cobalt, rhenium and others.

PhotoCORMs
The release of CO from carrier agents can be induced photochemically. These carriers are called photoCORMs and include both metal complexes and metal-free (organic) compounds of various structural motifs which could be regarded as a special type of photolabile protecting group.

ET-CORMs
Enzyme-triggered CORMs (ET-CORMs) have been developed to improve selective local delivery of CO. Some ET-CORM prodrugs are activated by esterase enzymes for site specific liberation of CO.

CO prodrugs

Organic CORMs are being developed to overcome reactivity and certain toxicity limitations of inorganic CORMs.

Methylene chloride was the first organic CORM orally administered based on previous reports of carboxyhemoglobin formation via metabolism. The second organic CORM, CORM-A1 (sodium boranocarbonate), was developed based on a 1960s report of CO release from potassium boranocarbonate.

In 2003, cyclic oxocarbons were suggested as a source for therapeutic CO including deltic acid, squaric acid, croconic acid, and rhodizonic acid and their salts.

Recent years have seen increasing interests in organic CO prodrugs because of the need to consider drug developability issues in developing CO-based therapeutics. These CO prodrugs have tunable release rate, triggered release, and the ability to release more than one payload from a single prodrug.

Enzyme hybrids
Based on the synergism of the heme oxygenase system and CO delivery, a new molecular hybrid-CORM (HYCO) class emerged consisting of a conjoined HO-1 inducer and CORM species. One such HYCO includes a dimethyl fumarate moiety which activates NRF2 to thereby induce HO-1, whilst the CORM moiety also liberates CO.

Carbon monoxide releasing materials
Carbon monoxide releasing materials (CORMAs) are essentially novel drug formulations and drug delivery platforms which have emerged to overcome the pharmaceutical limitations of most CORM species. An exemplary CORMA developed by Hubbell consists of a formulation of micelles prepared from triblock copolymers with a CORM entity, which is triggered for release via addition of cysteine. Other CO-releasing scaffolds include polymers, peptides, silica nanoparticles, nanodiamond, magnetic nanoparticles, nanofiber gel, metallodendrimers, and CORM-protein (macromolecule) conjugates.

Other advanced drug delivery devices, such as encapsulated CORMs and extracorporeal membrane-inspired technologies, have been developed.

Carboxyhemoglobin infusion
Carboxyhemoglobin can be infused to deliver CO. The most common approaches are based on polyethylene glycol PEGylated bovine carboxyhemoglobin and maleimide PEG conjugated human carboxyhemoglobin.

Porphyrins
Porphyrin structures such as heme, hemin, and metallic protoporphyrin IX (PPIX) analogs (such as cobalt PPIX) have been deployed to induce heme oxygenase and subsequently undergo biotransformation to liberate CO, the inorganic ion, and biliverdin/bilirubin. Some PPIX analogs such as tin PPIX, tin mesoporphyrin, and zinc PPIX, are heme oxygenase inhibitors.

Endogenous CO

HMOX is regarded as the main source of endogenous CO production, though other minor contributors have been identified in recent years. CO is formed at a rate of 16.4 μmol/hour in the human body, ~86% originating from heme via heme oxygenase and ~14% from non-heme sources including: photooxidation, lipid peroxidation, and xenobiotics. The average carboxyhemoglobin (CO-Hb) level in a non-smoker is under 3% CO-Hb (whereas a smoker may reach levels near 10% CO-Hb), though geographic location, occupation, health and behavior are contributing variables.

Heme oxygenase

In the late 1960s Rudi Schmid characterized the enzyme that facilitates the reaction for heme catabolism, thereby identifying the heme oxygenase (HMOX) enzyme.

HMOX is a heme-containing member of the heat shock protein (HSP) family identified as HSP32. Three isoforms of HMOX have been identified to date including the stress-induced HMOX-1 and constitutive HMOX-2. HMOX-1 is considered a cell rescue protein which is induced in response to oxidative stress and numerous disease states. Furthermore, HMOX-1 is induced by countless molecules including statins, hemin, and natural products.

HMOX catalyzes the degradation of heme to biliverdin/bilirubin, ferrous ion, and CO. Though present throughout the body, HO has significant activity in the spleen in the degradation of hemoglobin during erythrocyte recycling (0.8% of the erythrocyte pool per day), which accounts for ~80% of heme derived endogenous CO production. The majority of the remaining 20% of heme derived CO production is attributed to hepatic catabolism of hemoproteins (myoglobin, cytochromes, catalase, peroxidases, soluble guanylate cyclase, nitric oxide synthase) and ineffective erythropoiesis in bone marrow.

The enzymatic velocity and catalytic activity of HMOX can be enhanced by a plethora of dietary substances and xenobiotics to increase CO production.

Minor CO sources

The formation of CO from lipid peroxidation was first reported in the late 1960s and is regarded as a minor contributor to endogenous CO production. Other contributing sources include: the microbiome, cytochrome P450 reductase, human acireductone dioxygenase, tyrosinase, lipid peroxidation, alpha-keto acids, and other oxidative and redox mechanisms.

CO pharmacology
Carbon monoxide is one of three gaseous signaling molecules alongside nitric oxide and hydrogen sulfide. These gases are collectively referred to as gasotransmitters. CO is a classical example of hormesis such that low-dose is essential and beneficial, whereas an absence or excessive exposure to CO can be toxic.

Signaling

The first evidence of CO as a signaling molecule occurred upon observation of CO stimulating soluble guanylate cyclase and subsequent cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) production to serve as a vasodilator in vascular smooth muscle cells. The anti-inflammatory effects of CO are attributed to activation of the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. While CO commonly interacts with the ferrous iron atom of heme in a hemoprotein, it has been demonstrated that CO activates calcium-dependent potassium channels by engaging in hydrogen-bonding with surface histidine residues.

CO may have an inhibitory effect on numerous proteins including cytochrome P450 and cytochrome c oxidase.

Pharmacokinetics

CO has approximately 210x greater affinity for hemoglobin than oxygen. The equilibrium dissociation constant for the reaction Hb-CO ⇌ Hb + CO strongly favours the CO complex, thus the release of CO for pulmonary excretion generally takes some time.

Based on this binding affinity, blood is essentially an irreversible sink for CO and presents a therapeutic challenge for the delivery of CO to cells and tissues.

CO is considered non-reactive in the body and primarily undergoes pulmonary excretion.

title: Juan de Samaniego y Xaca

text:
Juan de Samaniego y Díez de Ulzurrun Xaca ("Jaca") y Roncal, better known just as  Juan Samaniego y Jaca,  was a prominent Spanish military officer who served as Governor of New Mexico between 1653 and 1656. He initiated several expeditions to liberate native people from Amerindians who attacked, kidnapped and took those native people as prisoners.

Biography
Juan de Samaniego y Díez de Ulzurrun Xaca y Roncal was born in Estella, Navarra (Spain). He was a son of Lorenzo de Samaniego y Jaca and Catalina Díez de Ulzurrun y Roncal.  Eventually, Juan de Samaniego earned the title of nobleman after verifying the notability of his four grandparents (his paternal grandparents were Martín de Samaniego and Inés de Jaca, while his maternal grandparents were Martín Díez de Ulzurrun y Margarita Roncal). So, he joined the Order of San Juan de Jerusalén in 1637.

He joined the Spanish Army in his youth. There, he had a distinguished military career, joining the Knights Hospitaller, a leading religious-military order.

In 1663, Xaca was chosen as governor of Santa Fe de Nuevo México by the Viceroy Francisco Fernández de la Cueva.

During his administration in New Mexico, Franciscans filed 17 charges against Samaniego, and he had trouble with some Amerindian people, who attacked and kidnapped people in New Mexico. In time, the Apaches attacked the  Jumano village, kidnapping twenty-seven women and local children. To rescue them, Samaniego sent a troop led by Juan Domínguez de Mendoza to the Apache village. The expedition was successful and the Apaches were punished.

The following year, Navajos raided Jemez Pueblo. The Navajo killed nineteen people and took another thirty-five. Samaniego sent several troops against them. The Spaniards, led again by Dominguez de Mendoza, entered the Navajo village while they celebrated a ceremonial, and there they abducted 211 people and killed several more. Then, the Spanish militaries freed the people kidnapped by the Navajos. This caused Samaniego to be threatened by Friar Antonio de Ibargary, because Samaniego had punished Native Americans without consulting the priests.

Later, in 1654, Samaniego organized an exploratory expedition to the Nueces River and chose Diego de Guadalajara Bernardo de Quirós as its leader.

Juan de Samaniego y Jaca was replaced by Juan Manso de Contreras in 1656 in the New Mexico government. Samaniego settled in Parral, Chihuahua (in modern Mexico) where he became an attorney to Valerio Cortés del Rey, his former financial backer during his politic administration in New Mexico.

Cambodia's Next Top Model, Season 1 is the first installment of an upcoming reality television show hosted by Yok Chenda in which a number of women compete for the title of Cambodia's Next Top Model along with the chance to begin their career in the modeling industry. The other three judges are Kouy Chandanich, Remy Hou, and Chem Vuth Sovin.

The show's first season included 50 semi-finalists, which were revealed on a weekly basis in clusters of five on the show's official Facebook page. The same was done for the revealing of the top 35. Fifteen finalists were selected to move on to the main competition.

Casting calls and auditions were held in Cambodia from May through June 2014. Contestants were required to be between the ages of 18 and 27, and meet a minimum height requirement of 1.65 meters (5 ft 5 in, excluding the Maltese adaptation of the Top Model franchise, this is the lowest height cut-off in any adaptation). The show began to air on November 14, 2014.

The winner of the competition was 22-year-old Chan Kong Kar from Banteay Meanchey. Apart from winning the title of Cambodia's Next Top Model, she will receive; a talent contract with MYTV, a cash prize of $10,000, the opportunity to appear on the cover of Sovrin Magazine in Cambodia, and a one year membership with The Place Gym in Phnom Penh.

A member of the Hiester Family political dynasty, he was the father of U.S. Congressman Isaac Ellmaker Hiester and the uncle of Pennsylvania State Senator and U.S. Congressman Hiester Clymer.

A son of William Hiester, Sr. and Anna Maria (Myer) Hiester, William Hiester Jr. was born in Berne, Pennsylvania on October 10, 1790. After attending the local, public schools, he became a farmer and merchant in Lancaster County.

On February 8, 1824, he wed Lucy Ellmaker (1797-1854). A member of the prominent Ellmaker family, she was the only child of Isaac Ellmaker (1762-1830) and Christiana Ellmaker (1764-1802). William and Lucy Hiester's son, Isaac Ellmaker Hiester, who was born in New Holland, Lancaster, Pennsylvania on May 29, 1824, would go on to become a member of the U.S. House of Representatives.

Military service
William Hiester Jr. served as second lieutenant with Captain Jacob Marshall's infantry company of the Pennsylvania Militia's First Regiment, Second Brigade during the War of 1812. His unit left Reading, Pennsylvania on September 2, 1814, and was assigned to duties in York, Pennsylvania until March 4, 1815, according to Pennsylvania historian Morton L. Montgomery.

Political career
During the early and mid-1820s, Hiester practiced law in Lancaster County. His duties including assisting clients with the resolution of family estate matters. He was also active in local politics and government, serving as Lancaster County Justice of the Peace from 1823 to 1828 and as Secretary of the State Caucus for the Anti-Masonic Convention in 1828.

Although Hiester ran unsuccessfully for the United States House of Representatives in 1819 and 1828, he was a successful Anti-Masonic Party candidate for Congress in 1830, serving three terms from March 4, 1831 to March 4, 1837. During his tenure, he advocated for various economic reform measures, including tariffs and the "re-establishment of a sound National Currency."

Hiester was then appointed as a delegate to the Pennsylvania Constitutional Convention, 1837-1838, remained active with Democratic Anti-Masonic politics, subsequently served in the Pennsylvania State Senate for the 6th district from 1840 to 1842, and was elected Speaker of the Pennsylvania Senate in 1842.

Later years
During the final phase of his life, Hiester devoted his time to farming. He also remained active in local politics and in charitable and civic affairs.

Illness, death and burial
Sometime during the final decade of his life, Hiester fell ill with a disease which caused paralysis. After several years of worsening health, he died from Apoplexy at his home in New Holland, Pennsylvania on October 13, 1853. He was interred at the Lancaster Cemetery in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

In 1854, a large, four-piece monument was erected above the graves of William Hiester and his wife, Lucy. In addition to a roughly eleven-foot-tall obelisk adorned with a wreath of lillies and roses and marked with the Hiester surname in raised letters, a die "beautifully worked, the top ... finished with scrolls and carving, and on each of the four narrow sides ... a scroll Console highly ornamented," and a roughly four-foot-tall plinth supporting the console, with a roughly five-by-twelve-inch base.
