title: Sebastiano Vini

text:
Sebastiano Vini, also known as Bastiano Veronese (c. 1515 in Caprino Veronese – August 11, 1602 in Pistoia) was an Italian painter of the Renaissance period, active mainly in Tuscany.

Biography
He was the son of Giovanni Piero. It is unknown under whom or where he trained, but his work shows the influence of Paolo Veronese. By 1548, he had married in Pistoia and remained there most of his life. His son, Jacopo Vini was also a painter.

He was prolific in Pistoia. Among his works was an Annunciation (1552) for the later-suppressed church of San Pierino alla Porta Lucchese, then moved to the Sacristy of the Prepositura del Montale. He painted a Nativity for the main altar of the Conservatory of San Giovanni Battista. He painted for the churches of Letto and of the Monks of San Sebastiano. He painted another Annunciation for the church of San Giovanni Fuoricivitas, and a Presentation at the Temple for the church of the Servites, Santissima Annunziata.

He painted a large fresco (1596?) for the counter-facade of the Oratory of San Desiderio  and for the church and cloister of San Domenico. He made few works outside Pistoia, including Cutigliano and Florence.

title: Cyanopeptolin

text:
Cyanopeptolins (CPs) are a class of oligopeptides produced by Microcystis and Planktothrix algae strains, and can be neurotoxic. The production of cyanopeptolins occurs through nonribosomal peptides synthases (NRPS).

Chemistry
CPs are, in general, a six-residue peptide formed into a ring by a beta-lactone bridge, making them chemically depsipeptides (peptidolactones). The first position is usually threonine, which links to one or two residues via an ester bound on the beta-hydroxyl group; the third position is conserved to be 3-amino-6-hydroxy-2-piperidone (Ahp) or a derivative. All other positions are highly variable.

There is not a single, unified nomenclature, for CPs. Names such as CP1020 and CP1138 refer to the molar mass. Others, such as aeruginopeptins, micropeptins, microcystilide, nostopeptins, and oscillapeptins, refer to the organism the substance is originally found in.

Factors affecting production
Increased water temperatures, because of climate change and eutrophication of inland waters promote blooms of cyanobacteria, potentially threaten water contamination by the production of the toxic cyanopeptolin CP1020.

Biological activity
Most CPs are serine protease inhibitors.

Cyanopeptolin CP1020 exposure in zebrafish affected pathways related to DNA damage, the circadian rhythm and response to light.

Evolutionary history
CPs are probably very ancient: the cyanobacterial genera that produce CPs appear to have inherited the key modules vertically and not horizontally.

title: Safe in My Garden

text:
"Safe in My Garden" is a song written by John Phillips and recorded by The Mamas and the Papas.  The single was briefly in the Top 100 pop chart in the United States.  AllMusic.com calls the song "One of the group's finest latter-day records."

The Mamas and the Papas
After Cass Elliot left the group temporarily in 1967, she returned in 1968 to complete their fourth album, The Papas & The Mamas.  While the 1967 single Twelve Thirty appears on the album and was intended to be the first single for the fourth album, nearly a year had passed between its release and the completion of the remainder of the album, with two additional singles issued in order to keep the group in the minds of the American record buying public, "Glad to Be Unhappy" (a non-album single) and "Dancing Bear" culled from the group's second album.  As a result, "Safe in My Garden" serves as something of a lead-off single for the album.

The song marks a departure for the group, as their signature folk-rock sound gives way to world-weary lyrics.  Songwriter John Phillips, in the two years prior, had seen the group achieve great highs (six singles in the American Top 5 charts, a Grammy award, and enormous wealth and popularity) and extraordinary lows (Michelle Phillips' affairs with bandmate Denny Doherty and The Byrds' Gene Clark, Cass's departure, John's burgeoning drug addiction and added responsibility of becoming a father for the third time), and now outside the group, 1968 was a myriad protests, police brutality, and a world-weariness about the 1960s, in particular the Sunset Strip Riots.  Despite the actual lyrics, the music is classic "Laurel Canyon" folk music, and has been  described as "this bucolic, happy song."

Well known for their singers' harmonies, this is an especially beautiful example of how the Mamas and Papas blended their voices by "layering vocal lines over and under each other that almost breaks your heart."  Billboard described the single as a "smooth, easy beat rhythm number with another exceptional vocal workout."  Cash Box said it was a "pretty ballad" with "polished performance" and "adept arrangements."  Despite reaching the Top Pop 100, as a "lead single" at the time, it was considered a failure for the band, leading to widespread rumors they were breaking up.  However, since then, it has been included in virtually every one of their later compilation LPs and CDs, including Greatest Hits (1998), The Singles+, and All the Leaves Are Brown (both 2001).  In 2014, the Knoxville News called the song number three out of the "Ten essential songs that everyone should hear."

Despite its hours of production and craftsmanship at John and Michelle Phillips' new home recording studio, the single was the first to miss the Top 40 of Billboard's Top 100 entirely, peaking at #53.  The album from which the single was drawn, while still a hit, was considered a disappointment at the time:  while all 3 prior albums and their Greatest Hits LP all became Top 5 smash hits, this album's highest chart position was #15.

Other recordings
The song was also recorded in Swedish, as "En dag i juni", with lyrics by Britt Lindeborg. The Family Four recorded the song as a B-side for the single Kör långsamt (Cab Driver), released in November 1968. and on the 1969 album Kör långsamt. With these lyrics, the song was recorded by Thorleifs, releasing it as a single in 1973 and on the 1974 album with the same name The Swedish-language lyrics have an environmental-political message, tackling mankind 's ways of dealing with planet Earth.

title: John Suther Williamson

text:
Colonel John Suther Williamson  ( – 26 April 1836) was a British Army officer who served in the Royal Artillery during the Napoleonic Wars.

Williamson was born about 1775. He entered the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich on 8 August 1791, and received a commission as second lieutenant in the Royal Artillery on 1 January 1794. He was promoted to lieutenant, on 11 March 1794. In June 1795, he served on the coast of France, in the expedition to Quiberon Bay to assist the French royalists. In 1799, he went to the Cape of Good Hope and served in the First Cape Frontier War of that year. That year, he was gazetted captain-lieutenant, on 12 October.

From southern Africa, Williamson went to Egypt, and the Mediterranean. On 12 September 1803, he was promoted to captain. During the Adriatic Campaign, he was at the siege of Ischia in June 1809, and commanded the artillery during the capture of four of the Ionian Islands in October that year. He was at the siege and capture of Santa Maura in April 1810. On 4 June 1811, he was promoted to the brevet rank of major. He subsequently went to serve in the Peninsular War in Spain, serving as commander of artillery under Sir John Murray at the battle of Castalla on 12 April 1813 and the siege of Tarragona in June. He was at the battles of Ordal and Villafranca on 12–13 September. During the campaign, he was frequently mentioned in despatches.

Williamson returned to England in 1814. He was promoted to brevet lieutenant-colonel on 13 October 1814, and to regimental major on 20 December 1814. In the following year he went to the Netherlands and commanded the artillery of the 3rd Division at the battles of Quatre Bras and Waterloo. He received the Waterloo Medal, and was made a Companion of the Order of the Bath, military division, in 1815. He served with the army of occupation in France, until his promotion to regimental lieutenant-colonel on 24 March 1817, after he returned to England. He was for some time superintendent of the Royal Military Repository at Woolwich, and prepared a new and extensive course of instruction in artillery, which formed the basis of the exercise of heavy ordnance and of miscellaneous instructions of the gunner for many years after his time. On 29 July 1825, he was promoted to colonel. Williamson died at Woolwich on 26 April 1836.

Family
On 30April 1817 Williamson married a Miss Maclean, of Giese in Caithness.

title: Danielle Collins

text:
Danielle Rose Collins (born December 13, 1993) is an American professional tennis player. She has reached career-high WTA rankings of No. 7 in singles and 79 in doubles. Collins has won two WTA Tour singles titles, at the 2021 Palermo Open and the 2021 Silicon Valley Classic, and one WTA Tour doubles title at the 2023 Charleston Open with Desirae Krawczyk. She reached her first major singles final at the 2022 Australian Open.

Collins played collegiate tennis at the University of Virginia and won the NCAA singles title twice, 2014 and 2016, during her sophomore and senior years. She finished career in Virginia in 2016 as the top-ranked collegiate player. Having first established herself on the WTA Tour when she reached the semifinals of the 2018 Miami Open as a qualifier, her breakthrough came at the 2019 Australian Open where she advanced to the semifinals, defeating world No. 2 Angelique Kerber en route. Collins was also a quarterfinalist at the 2020 French Open in singles, and a semifinalist at the 2022 Wimbledon Championships in doubles.

Career overview

College
While at Virginia, Collins won the collegiate national title in 2014 and 2016 and the Honda Sports Award as the nation's best female tennis player in 2016.

2009–2012
In 2009, Collins played her first events on the ITF Women's Circuit. She won her first ITF singles title in 2011.

2013–2017: WTA Tour debut and turning professional
She did not play any professional matches in 2013 and 2015 while she was playing college tennis at Virginia.

Collins made her WTA Tour main-draw debut as a wildcard player at the 2014 US Open in the Arthur Ashe Stadium, where she forced second seed Simona Halep to a third-setter in the first round.

In mid-2016, she turned fully professional. During her time on the ITF Circuit, she won four singles titles.

2018: Breakthrough and top 50

Collins started the year reaching the final round of qualifying at the Australian Open, before being outclassed by Denisa Allertová, in two sets.

However, she received a wildcard at the WTA 125 tournament at Newport Beach, and claimed the title there, which saw her rise to a career-high ranking of No. 120 at that time.

Another impressive run at another WTA 125 tournament, this time in Indian Wells, saw her reach the quarterfinals and thus earn a wild card for the Indian Wells Open, a Premier Mandatory tournament that also takes place there. There, she won her first ever WTA Tour match against compatriot Taylor Townsend, before beating world No. 14, Madison Keys, in straight sets, followed by a victory over Sofya Zhuk. Although her run ended in the fourth round against former world No. 6, Carla Suárez Navarro, Collins made her top-100 debut, jumping from No. 117 to 93.
Getting through the qualifying rounds at the Miami Open, Collins beat world No. 37, Irina-Camelia Begu, in straight sets, before upsetting two-time major semifinalist CoCo Vandeweghe, in three sets. Victories over Donna Vekić and Monica Puig followed, before she earned the biggest victory of her career, beating her idol, former world No. 1 and seven-time Grand Slam champion, Venus Williams, who was the eighth-ranked player coming into their encounter. With this win, she became the first qualifier ever to reach the semifinals at the Miami Open. She then faced sixth-seeded Jeļena Ostapenko and lost in straight sets, despite having a set point in the first set. After making it to the quarterfinals in Monterrey, Collins broke into the top 50 for the first time.

Collins only won back-to-back main-draw matches at two other tournaments the rest of the season, reaching the third round of the Eastbourne International and the semifinals in San Jose (both Premier-level events) and lost in the opening round at the remaining three Grand Slams. Nonetheless, she finished the year ranked No. 36 in the world, more than 100 spots above her previous best year-end ranking.

2019: Australian Open SF, top 25 debut, Wimbledon doubles QF

Her rise continued at the Australian Open. Prior to the tournament, she had never won a match at a major event. After upsetting 14th seed Julia Görges in a tough first-round match, Collins won her next three matches in straight sets; first against Sachia Vickery, then against 19th seed Caroline Garcia. In the round of 16, Collins pulled off the biggest upset of the tournament, dominating the second seed and three-time major champion Angelique Kerber, in straight sets. She thus reached the quarterfinals, where she defeated Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in three sets. In the semifinals, she lost to eighth seed Petra Kvitová, in two sets. Collins rose to a career-high ranking of No. 23 on 28 January 2019, following the tournament.

She also recorded wins at all the other Grand Slam events, reaching the second round at the French Open and US Open as well as the third round at Wimbledon. She achieved her best-ever Grand Slam doubles result at Wimbledon, reaching the quarterfinals with Bethanie Mattek-Sands. Collins struggled outside of the majors though, reaching the quarterfinals at just one tournament (the Charleston Open). In December, she won the Hawaii Open, an exhibition tournament, upon the withdrawal of her finals opponent Angelique Kerber. Collins finished the year ranked world No. 31.

At the end of 2019, Collins revealed that she was suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, similar to Caroline Wozniacki.

2020: French Open quarterfinalist

Collins began 2020 with three wins over top-15 opponents. She defeated world No. 5, Elina Svitolina, in the first round at the Brisbane International before falling to world No. 13, Madison Keys, in straight sets in the quarterfinals. The following week at the Adelaide International, she defeated No. 15 Sofia Kenin in the second round, and then No. 7, Belinda Bencic, in the quarterfinals. Collins fell to world No. 1, Ashleigh Barty, in three sets in the semifinals. She lost in the second round to Yulia Putintseva at the Australian Open, and dropped outside the top 50 due to failing to defend her semifinalist points.

Due to the six-month shutdown of the WTA Tour caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Collins did not play again after the Australian Open until August. She lost in the opening round of her first two tournaments back, to Jil Teichmann at the Western & Southern Open and Anett Kontaveit at the US Open. However, Collins rebounded at the French Open where she reached her second career Grand Slam quarterfinal. Along the way, she upset two-time Grand Slam champion and former world No. 1, Garbiñe Muguruza, in the third round (handing the Spaniard her earliest exit from Roland Garros since 2013) as well as 30th seed Ons Jabeur, both in three sets. Her run ultimately came to an end against compatriot and reigning Australian Open champion Sofia Kenin, in a match that for both players was their fourth three-setter of five matches.

2021: Maiden WTA Tour title and first WTA 500 title, return to top 30
Danielle Collins was sidelined for the first half of the season with debilitating pain in her back. She was diagnosed with endometriosis and proceeded to have a "tennis-ball sized" cyst removed. In addition to that surgery, Collins was also taking medication for rheumatoid arthritis.

Collins won her first WTA Tour title at the Palermo Ladies Open, defeating Elena-Gabriela Ruse, in straight sets in the final.

The following month, she won her second WTA title at the Silicon Valley Classic, defeating Daria Kasatkina in three sets. The Silicon Valley Classic win marked her first WTA 500 title. As a result, she reentered the top 30 at world No. 28, on August 9, 2021.

She then continued her win streak at the Canadian Open. She beat Jil Teichmann in the first round, and then went on to defeat sixth seed Simona Halep in the second. Her 12-match win streak eventually came to an end in the third round, after losing to compatriot Jessica Pegula, in three sets.

At the US Open, she reached the third round for the first time after defeating former world No. 6, Carla Suárez Navarro, and Kaja Juvan. She then lost her third-round match to Aryna Sabalenka, in straight sets.

In her next two tournaments, Collins reached the quarterfinals in Chicago and the third round in Indian Wells before concluding her season in Linz, where she was forced to retire in her semifinal match against compatriot Alison Riske due to a shoulder injury. Nonetheless, Collins finished the year ranked inside the top 30 for the first time, at No. 29.

2022: First major final, top 10 debut, American No. 1, US Open 4th round
At the Australian Open, Collins reached the semifinals for the second time, after defeating 19th seed Elise Mertens to become the third American woman in the quarterfinals. It was the second year in a row that three Americans have featured at this stage of the tournament. In the quarterfinals, she beat Alizé Cornet in straight sets. She defeated Iga Świątek also in straight sets in the semifinals to advance to her first Grand Slam final, where she faced world No. 1, Ashleigh Barty. Świątek said that Collins hit the,"...fastest balls I have ever played in a match." In the final, Collins lost in straight sets despite being 5–1 up in the second set. As a result of her performance, Collins made her top-10 debut and became the American No. 1 female player. At the French Open, she lost to fellow American Shelby Rogers, in straight sets, in the second round. In Wimbledon, Collins lost in the first round to Marie Bouzková, in three sets. At the same tournament, partnering Desirae Krawczyk, she reached the quarterfinals for a second time and then the semifinals for the first time at a major in doubles in her career.

Seeded 19th at the US Open, she reached the round of 16 for the first time upon defeating two-time US Open champion Naomi Osaka, Cristina Bucșa, and Alizé Cornet. In the fourth round, she lost to world No. 6 and eventual semifinalist Aryna Sabalenka in three sets.

2023: First doubles title
Collins started her 2023 season in Adelaide. Seeded fifth at the first tournament, she lost in the first round to Elena Rybakina in three sets. Seeded 10th at the second tournament, she reached the quarterfinals where she was defeated by sixth seed and world No. 9, Veronika Kudermetova in three sets, despite having five match points during the match. Seeded 13th as the prior year's finalist at the Australian Open, she beat Anna Kalinskaya in the first round. In the second round, she outlasted Karolína Muchová in a two-hour-and-56-minute three-set marathon match. In the third round, she lost to 22nd seed, world No. 25, and eventual finalist, Elena Rybakina, in three sets. Due to not defending her finalist points earned in 2022, Collins's ranking fell from 11 to 40 after the Australian Open.

The week of February 6th saw Collins play at the Abu Dhabi Open. She was beaten in the first round by fifth seed and world No. 12, Jeļena Ostapenko, in three sets. At the Qatar Ladies Open, she suffered a second-round thrashing at the hands of defending champion, world No. 1, and eventual champion, Iga Świątek, winning only one game. In Dubai, she fell in the first round to 17 year old Linda Fruhvirtová. Seeded fourth at the inaugural edition of the ATX Open in Austin, Texas she reached the semifinals where she lost to eighth seed, Marta Kostyuk, who would end up winning her 1st WTA singles title. At the Indian Wells Open, she was defeated in the first round by lucky loser Dalma Gálfi. Seeded 30th at the Miami Open, she lost in the third round to third seed and compatriot, Jessica Pegula.

Collins started her clay-court season in April at the Charleston Open. Seeded 13th, she lost in the first round to Shelby Rogers. In doubles, she won her first WTA Tour doubles title alongside compatriot Desirae Krawczyk, by beating top seeds Giuliana Olmos and Ena Shibahara in the final. She withdrew from both the Madrid Open and the Italian Open. Returning to action at the French Open, she was defeated in the first round by third seed Jessica Pegula.

World TeamTennis
Collins played her first season with World TeamTennis in 2019 with Billie Jean King's Philadelphia Freedoms. She started the 2020 season on the Orlando Storm roster which began July 12, but was dismissed from the league after leaving the state and breaching COVID-19 safety protocols.

Playing style
Collins employs a highly aggressive playing style that has been described as "fearless", "ferocious" and "fun to watch". She has a powerful serve, and strong groundstrokes on both wings, making her one of the hardest hitters on the WTA Tour. Her style allows her to hit a high number of winners, but also a considerable number of high-risk unforced errors. Her greatest strengths are her kick serve, her inside-out forehand, and her versatile and strong backhand.  Her double-handed backhand is atypically stronger than her forehand. She also possesses strong volleying skills, allowing her to hit winners from any position on the court. Iga Świątek mentioned that Collins, "hits the fastest ball I have ever played in a match."

Personal life
Collins is the daughter of Walter and Cathy. She graduated from Northeast High School, St. Petersburg, Florida, in 2012.

title: John G. Coburn Farm

text:
The John G. Coburn Farm is a historic farmstead at 434 Carthage Road (Maine State Route 142) in Carthage, Maine.  The farmhouse, a two-story brick structure built in 1824, stands on the west side of the road just north of its crossing of the Webb River.  The house is regionally distinctive as the only brick building in the Webb River valley.  The farm, which now includes , also includes two English barns, one of which has been dated to the early 19th century.  The farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (erroneously as "John G. Coburn" on River Road) in 2002.

Description
The main block of the house is a two-story rectangle running parallel to the road, with an integral single-story ell extending to the southwest.  A timber-frame carriage shed is attached to the ell.  As originally built in 1824, it was a typical late Federal/early Greek Revival center hall structure, with rooms on both floors flanking a central hallway.  In 1865 the gable roof was altered, adding a cross gable projecting on the front facade.  In this gable end there are three sash windows, and a small stained-glass oculus window at the peak.  The interior of the house largely reflects decoration and alterations dating to the turn of the 20th century.

The two barns stand near each other north of the house.  The older of the two barns is the larger one, with original hay lofts; part of its roof supports has been rebuilt using modern construction methods.  The smaller barn apparently once stood closer to the house, where an appropriately-size granite foundation remains.  A leanto for sheltering farm animals is attached to one side.

History
The main house was built in 1824 by Oliver Newman, Sr., who arrived in Carthage (settled 1812) in 1823, and amassed a substantial farm property over the next 30 years.  Oliver Jr. next occupied the house, and was responsible for the addition of the cross gable and other interior alterations to the house.  He was not as successful as his father, and the property was briefly sold out of the family in 1870.  By 1880 Osca Newman Coburn and her husband John had acquired the property, bringing it back into the Newman family.  It remained in the hands of the Coburns and their descendants until 1973.

title: Charles Romeyn (American football)

text:
Charles Annesley Romeyn (December 14, 1874 – January 31, 1950) was an American football player and United States Army officer.  He played for the Army Black Knights football team and was selected as a consensus first-team fullback on the 1898 College Football All-America Team.

Early years
Romeyn was born in 1874 in Indian Territory, in what is now the state of Oklahoma.  He was the son of Major Romeyn.

West Point

Romeyn attended the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York. While at the Academy, he played at the fullback position for the Army Black Knights football team and was a consensus first-team selection for the 1898 College Football All-America Team.

Shortly before the 1898 football season got underway, Romeyn was stripped of his captain's stripes due to an "unmilitary order" he gave to cadets under his command.  He reportedly told cadets, "Keep your faces to the front.  Turn your eyes if you want to see things, but remain quiet and face front."

Military career
Romeyn graduated from the Military Academy in 1899 and spent his entire career in the Army.  He was initially commissioned as a second lieutenant in the 10th Cavalry in February 1899 and stationed at Bayamo, Cuba until December 1899.  He next served at Fort McIntosh, Texas, until April 1901. He was promoted to first lieutenant in February 1901 and was next stationed in the Philippines at Samar until October 1901.

Romeyn next served in Montana on detached service at the Tongue River Agency charged with "quieting" the Cheyenne Indians in January 1902 and then on guard duty there until November 1902.  He next served at Fort Meade in South Dakota before returning to the Philippines from June 1903 to May 1905.  In the Philippines, Romeyn was stationed at Camp Stotsenburg.

In August 1905, Romeyn was promoted to captain while stationed at Fort Myer, Virginia.  He next served at Fort Riley, Kansas, where he was a member of the Army Cavalry Rifle Team, entering national competitions in 1905, 1906 and 1907. From October 1907 to November 1909, Romeyn was stationed at Fort Des Moines. He participated in the Army's November and December 1907 expedition to Thunder Butte, South Dakota, with the mission of "quieting" Ute Indians. He also served as coach of the Army Cavalry Rifle Team in 1909. From December 1909 to May 1912, Romeyn served his third tour in the Philippines.  He participated in action against "Moro bandits" in 1911 in the Cagayan Valley.

Romeyn returned to the United States in June 1912 and was assigned to Fort Bliss in Texas and then Fort Leavenworth in Kansas.  At the later station, he was a student officer at the Army School of the Line and Army Staff College.  He graduated from Army Staff College in May 1914. From May 1914 to August 1917, he was stationed at Fort Ethan Allen in Vermont.  He was promoted to major of the cavalry in May 1917, adjutant-general in July 1917 and lieutenant-colonel in August 1917. From August 1917 to June 1918, he was stationed at Camp Devens, a temporary cantonment in Massachusetts for training soldiers during World War I, with the 302nd Infantry.  In July 1918, he was promoted to colonel of the infantry and became a member of the Army General Staff in Washington, D.C.

Romeyn retired from the military in December 1938 at age 64. He died at Walter Reed Army Hospital on January 31, 1950, at age 75, and was buried at West Point Cemetery.

title: 2016 Sarawak state election

text:
The eleventh Sarawak state election was held on Saturday, 7 May 2016 after nomination for candidates on Monday, 25 April 2016. The 82 members of the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly, were elected in single-member constituencies using first-past-the-post voting. More than 1.1 million who had their names entered or retained in an electoral register for a particular electoral district in Sarawak was eligible to vote at the time of the election. Malaysia does not practice compulsory voting and automatic voter registration. The voting age is 21 although the age of majority in the country is 18. The election was conducted by the Election Commission of Malaysia.

The Sarawak State Legislative Assembly would automatically dissolve on 20 June 2016, the fifth anniversary of the first sitting, and elections must be held within sixty days of the dissolution (on or before 19 August 2016, with the date to be decided by the Election Commission), unless dissolved prior to that date by the Yang di-Pertua Negeri of Sarawak on the advice of the Chief Minister of Sarawak.

The previous state election was held at 2011. The state assemblymen is elected to 5 years term each. It is expected to be the most hotly contested election in Sarawak's poll history. At the previous election, the opposition coalition Pakatan Rakyat made historic gains by doubling its State Assembly seats, while the ruling coalition Barisan Nasional retained a two-thirds majority.

The incumbent Chief Minister Adenan Satem first announced the election during a party branch meeting on 29 January, speculating 18 April as the nomination day and 30 April as election day. However, Adenan said the final decision was up to the Election Commission.

On 14 April, the Election Commission announced that the election will be held on 7 May, with 12 days of campaigning and the nomination day set on 25 April. The legislative assembly was dissolved on Monday, 11 April.

Timeline

Proposed Sarawak electoral districts
A proposal by the Election Commission to increase the number of state seats from 71 to 82 was challenged in the High Court and nullified.  However this was overturned by the Court of Appeal reasoning that the increase in seats would not breach voters' constitutional rights and was in accordance with the 13th Schedule of the Federal Constitution.

The composition of seats by ethnic majority consists of 22 Dayak-Iban majority seats, 17 Muslim-Malay majority seats, 16 Chinese-majority seats, 9 Melanau-majority seats, 8 Dayak-Bidayuh majority seats, 6 Dayak-Orang Ulu majority seats, 2 Kedayan-majority seats, and 2 Brunei-Malay majority seats.

Political parties

Campaign

The Sarawak state government was alleged to have abused their power, by banning several opposition MPs and members from entering the state during campaigning, as under Section 67 of the Immigration Act, a person cannot be denied entry into Sarawak if the visit was “for the sole purpose of engaging in legitimate political activity”.  Opposition leaders like Lim Guan Eng and Azmin Ali were allowed into the state on a temporary basis to campaign during the election period but were told to leave after five days. Both Barisan Nasional and the opposition engaged in online Youtube videos platforms to reach out to voters. Both Barisan Nasional and the opposition conveyed the "state nationalism" message through different ways. Barisan emphasized on voting on local parties to ensure the rights of the Sarawakians are preserved from cultural influence from Peninsular Malaysia while providing a vision of better living in urban centres. Meanwhile, the opposition parties emphasized that all their candidates are sourced locally. The opposition, by showing images or videos regarding the harsh life or rural dwellers in Sarawak, alleged that the federal government has been neglecting the infrastructure development in Sarawak for years.

Barisan Nasional
Breakaway parties such as TERAS and UPP, with 5 and 4 seats respectively prior to the dissolution of the state assembly, have their members contested seats under the Barisan banner as direct election candidates under a deal by Adenan Satem after their parties were prevented from joining Barisan after opposition from parties such as SUPP and SPDP. Candidates from Barisan have been seen handing out money, foodstuffs and other election goodies to potential voters. The government is also trying to tie the election to the development of the state such as upgrading roads and building the Pan-Borneo Highway.

Pakatan Harapan
Due to disagreements in contesting several seats between both DAP and PKR, both parties would be facing each other and Barisan in 6 multi-cornered fights in Batu Kitang, Mulu, Murum, Simanggang, Ngemah and Mambong. A DAP candidate had brought up the issue of minimum wage being lower in Sarawak compared to Peninsula Malaysia and that many younger Sarawakians were migrating to Peninsula Malaysia and Singapore for better job opportunities.

Electoral candidates

Results

Two seats were won by Barisan Nasional uncontested, which are Bukit Kota and Bukit Sari.

title: Petrus Gaszowiec

text:
Petrus Gaszowiec, (c.1425, Rozmierz–1474, Kraków) (also known as Piotr Gaszowiec, Petro Gassoviecz, Petr Gaschowietz, Petrus de Silesia, Petrus Strzelec) was a Polish astrologer, doctor and professor at the Kraków Academy.

Petrus Gaszowiec probably began his education at the local school in Strzelce Opolskie and subsequently entered the Kraków Academy in the winter semester of 1446. He became a baccalarius in 1448 and in 1452 became a doctor of the arts. He was a student of several other great minds of his era, among them, Jan of Ludzisko, Marcin Król of Żurawice, and Andrzej Grzymała from Poznań.

In 1452 he left for Perugia in Italy, where he studied medicine and astronomy. He continued these studies in Cologne in 1454–1455, under the supervision of Gerard of Hamnont.

Gaszowiec finally returned to Kraków in 1456 and took up a post as the court doctor of Casimir IV Jagiellon.  In that same year, he also joined the faculty of medicine at the Kraków Academy and began lecturing there as a doctor of medicine. He served as dean of the medical faculty in 1459 and 1462, as well as rector of the whole academy in the winter of 1464–65 and the summers of 1465 and 1470.

In 1459 he married a wealthy townswoman named Katarzyna Homanówna, and together they had nine children.

Gaszowiec also pursued astronomical research, leaving behind works used by the subsequent generation of astronomers, including Nicholas Copernicus. Among other texts, he wrote  and constructed numerous astronomical tables. In 1453, Gaszowiec worked out a catalogue of fifteen fixed stars.  The Almanach Cracoviense ad annum 1474, which is the oldest surviving document printed on Polish soil, was most likely written by Gaszowiec. It was published by Kasper Straube, a Bavarian printer who worked in Kraków from 1473 to 1476. Similar to other calendars and almanacs of the era, the  lists church holy days alongside astronomical data. It also contains information such as the most astrologically propitious days for letting blood, according to the age and health of the patient. The only surviving copy of the document is held by the Jagiellonian Library.

In addition to his medical and astronomical pursuits, Gaszowiec also dabbled in magic.  It is probable that he was partly responsible for the copying of the Picatrix and for bringing that text from Italy to Poland. The book, which was likely written by the Arabic author al-Majriti, discusses such topics as the nature of the sky and atmospheric phenomena, the connections between the signs of the zodiac and the planets, as well as the summoning of ghosts.

Petrus Gaszowiec died between 28 January and 18 May 1474.

title: Robert S. Houston

text:
Robert Samuel Houston (August 7, 1820January 5, 1902) was an American dairy farmer and Wisconsin pioneer.  He was a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly, representing Kenosha County during the 1874 and 1891 sessions.

Biography
Houston was born in Charlemont, Massachusetts, on August 7, 1820.  He received a common school education, and became a stonecutter. He worked for one employer in Meriden, Connecticut, from 1851 until moving to Wisconsin in September 1857, eventually settling on a farm in Pleasant Prairie, where he took up dairy farming, selling butter and cheese (winning medals with both); and raised hay, corn and oats.

Houston served as chairman of the town board for the town of Pleasant Prairie, and as treasurer of his local school district.

He was first elected to the Assembly in 1873 to represent Kenosha County as a member of the Liberal Reform Party.  He drew 1,005 votes to 777 for Republican former state senator Francis Paddock (Republican incumbent Asahel Farr was not a candidate).

The Reform Party was a short-lived coalition of Democrats, reform and Liberal Republicans, and Grangers formed in 1873.  The coalition won the election for Governor of Wisconsin and secured Democratic control of the Assembly for the first time since before the Civil War.

Serving in the 27th Wisconsin Legislature, he was assigned to the standing committee on railroads.  This was an especially important committee during this legislative term, as railroad regulation was one of the key issues of the Reform coalition.  Their signature legislation was the so-called "Potter Law" (1874 Wisc. Act 273), which implemented strict new regulations on railroad freight and passenger rates and created the office of Railroad Commissioner to enforce and administer the new regulations.

Houston did not seek re-election in 1874, and was succeeded by Republican Rouse Simmons.  He ran again in 1876, but was defeated by Republican Walter Maxwell.

He was elected again to the Assembly in 1890 for a two-year term, this time as a Democrat, with 1,597 votes to 1,453 for Republican J. Cavanaugh (Republican incumbent Dwight Burgess was not a candidate). He was assigned to the committee on agriculture.  He was succeeded by Democrat Daniel A. Mahoney.

In 1895, a complaint was made to the state veterinarian that Houston's cattle had been contaminated with tuberculosis.  The state official came to Kenosha and, after testing, decided to slaughter 38 cows.  Houston raised a complaint after learning that the carcasses of the cows had been taken and sold for beef.  In the end, Houston was paid a small amount for his loss, but he continued his challenge and prepared a bill of damages, demanding full compensation.  He attempted multiple lawsuits through the Wisconsin courts, failing at the circuit court and the Wisconsin Supreme Court.  He personally lobbied the governor, Edward Scofield, and the Legislature, but was still unsuccessful.  The legal fight cost most of what remained of his fortune.

Personal life and family
Robert S. Houston was the third of six children born to David Houston and his wife Therza ( Upton).  His paternal grandfather, John Houston, served in the New Hampshire militia during the American Revolutionary War.

Robert Houston married twice.  He first married widow Lucy M. Stone ( Smith) of Whately, Massachusetts, on January 24, 1849.  She died in 1894, and Houston subsequently married Isabella Smith, a niece of his first wife.  He had two adopted daughters.

He died of edema in Milwaukee on January 5, 1902.

title: Morgan Colt

text:
Morgan Colt (11 September 1876 – 12 June 1926) was an American metalworker, furniture craftsman, impressionist painter, and architect. He helped found the New Hope, Bucks County, Pennsylvania colony of painters—the leading landscape school in the United States during the early 20th–century—but was better known as a craftsman than a painter, specializing in hand–wrought iron garden furniture and fire screens. Many of his paintings were accidentally destroyed after his death.

Early life
Morgan Colt was born in Summit, New Jersey. His father was a member of the Colt gun manufacturing family. He attended the School of Architecture at Columbia University, graduating in 1901.  While at Columbia, he was a member of the Fraternity of Delta Psi (St. Anthony Hall). He also studied art at the Academie Julian in Paris and with painter William Langson Lathrop in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

Career

Architect

Colt qualified as an architect and practiced this profession in New York City. Around 1905, he began specializing in houses featuring hand–crafted wood and iron furniture. One of his designs was the White Oaks, the  country mansion of Jane Wood (Mrs. G. E. Wood), later the Holmquist School for Girls (1925), and now the Hotel du Village in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. He also designed a house in New Hope, Pennsylvania for Robert W. Welsh. Both houses, as well as his own residence in New Hope, were featured in The Architectural Record in 1923.

In 1924, he designed a house for John Folinsbee, including designing the doors, ironwork, and lighting. He also designed an Episcopal Community Center in Wrightstown, Pennsylvania. In addition, he designed the alter, candle holders, and lectern for St. Philips Chapel on River Road in New Hope sometime after 1921.

Little English Village

Colt was influenced by William Morris and the Arts and Crafts movement in England, and began designing and making wood and iron furniture using traditional techniques. Around 1912, he moved to New Hope, Pennsylvania where he began building a "Little English Village" which consisted of eight cottages of various English architectural styles. The primary structure was his residence, a former barn that he converted into a Tudor Revival style house. It featured carved woodwork and doors, leaded glass windows, and a slate roof. One admirer said, "The one–time pig pen has budded, leaved and blossomed into one of the most charming abodes a vivid fancy could imagine. The woodwork of its doorways are enriched with exquisite Gothic detail, and its walls are festooned with vines and carvings wrought in the stone."

Colt added a gatehouse cottage which connected to a large Medieval iron gate and gateway at the front of his property, followed by a stable (later the Inn at Phillips Mill). He also built his Gothic Revival style artist studio where he painted. The studio was built using the wooden trusses of a ruined English abbey that Coly dismantled and shipped to New Hope. Across from the studio, he built a Gothic Revival iron forge where he crafted iron furniture. He also built a brick Tudor Revival style woodworking shop where he made wood furniture and chests detailed with Gothic–style tracery. Across from the woodworking shop, he built a Norman Revival cottage which he used as his dog kennel. The grounds included brick walkways and a sunken garden that he designed.

In 1919, he added more buildings to the Little English Village that he called the Gothic Shops; there he exhibited and sold his garden furniture, ornamental ironwork, tooled copper, leather work, and carved wood chests, doors, and painted furniture. He also sold custom-order fireplace implements, folding screens, lighting, and metal trays. All items were made on site by Colt or his employees. His workers also were batiks, handweavers, picture framers, and rug makers.

Art
In addition to his traditional crafts, Colt also painted in oils, favoring coastal views of Shinnecock, Long Island, and landscapes of Bucks County in the impressionist style.

In 1916, Colt joined William Langson Lathrop, Rae Sloan Bredin, Daniel Garber, Charles Rosen, and Robert Spencer to form The New Hope Group. He exhibited with the New Hope Group in 1916 and 1917 at the Arlington Gallery in New York City, Carnegie Institute, Cincinnati Art Museum, Corcoran Gallery of Art, and the Detroit Institute of Art.

He also exhibited at the Art Institute of Chicago, the National Academy of Design, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and Phillips Mill. At the time of his death, he was preparing for an exhibit with Architectural Society of New York.

Legacy
In addition to Colt’s paintings, examples of his furniture and wooden chests are in museums and private collections. However, after Colt's death, the purchaser of his property destroyed most of the paintings he found there, not understanding what they were worth. As modern art historians have noted, this had made it difficult to find his paintings today and to understand the scope of his work.

Colt's house and outbuildings in New Hope are now part of the Phillips Mill Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. In 2020, the Phillips Mill Foundation for the Arts announced a campaign had raised  $425,000 to restore Colt's former residence and buildings.

Personal life
In 1902, Colt married Jane Boudinot Keith, a preacher's daughter from Onteora, New York, and descendant of Elias Boudinot, a French Huguenot who was president of the Continental Congress. They did not have any children. They initially lived in Flushing, Queens, New York and frequently visited Shinnecock, Long Island. Around 1912, they moved to New Hope, Pennsylvania, so Colt could dedicate his time to art. He built a houseboat, the Deewaydin, planning to live on it on the Delaware Canal. That turned out not to be practical. They moved into a rental house and later purchased, a barn that had housed pigs on the Phillips Mill farm of his friend, William Langson Lathrop, and converted it into a home and studio.

In 1912, he organized the Coryell's Ferry Chautauqua near New Hope; the weeklong event recurred annually for ten years. He was a member of the Boston Art Club, the New York Society of Craftsmen, the New York Yacht Club, the Philadelphia Art Alliance, and the Salmagundi Club. He also raised German Shepherd show dogs.

In 1926, Colt died of apoplexy at the Art Colony at New Hope, Pennsylvania at the age of 49 years. He was buried in Paterson, New Jersey.

He enlisted in the Australian Royal Navy in 1917 to serve in World War I. From 1925 to 1938, he studied painting at the Julian Ashton Art School, where he was tutored by Julian Ashton, George Washington Lambert and Henry Gibbons.

Career
He was a realist painter, and focused on painting scenes of everyday life.  "People in crowds, in the streets, in pubs, waiting, playing, watching others, travelling to and from work." His work was exhibited at the Society of Artists from 1927 to his death. Later, in 1939, his first solo exhibition took place at the Grosvenor Gallery, Sydney. A review of the exhibition described a collection of portraits in pencil and a series of oils. Of particular note, the work 'Travellers' was described as "bustling plebian." In a similar vein, another review praised Badham's ability to paint "aspects of Sydney life which few painters have the courage to tackle."

Badham taught painting at the East Sydney Technical College from 1938 to 1961. He published two books about Australian art, A Study of Australian Art, 1949, and A Gallery of Australian Art, 1954.

By April 1950 he was living at Darling Point Road, Darling Point. He married dressmaker Enid Wilson in Sydney in 1927. Their daughter, Chebi Badham, became an artist and animator.

title: Vincent Chemical Co.

text:
Vincent Chemical Company was an Australian business noted for manufacture of a popular compound analgesic "Vincent's APC"

History
Dr. Harry John Clayton (ca.1887 – 31 October 1928) of Macquarie Street and medical superintendent of the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney, took the headache remedy then in general use, composed of phenacetin and caffeine, and by experimenting with the addition of aspirin, arrived at what became the standard formulation known as A.P.C. powder, or in the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital Pharmacopæia for 1918 as Pulvis Analgesicus.

In 1919, at the insistence of his wife, Clayton founded a partnership consisting of Mrs Clayton, E. W. Wills, C. K. Probert (dispenser at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital), and J. A. Vincent (1890 – 12 June 1933), who had been assistant dispenser at the hospital, and was at that time a pharmacist with a business at Five Dock. Clayton chose the names "Vincent Chemical Company" and "Vincent's APC" to distance himself, as a practicing physician, from any commercial product. During the pneumonic influenza epidemic April to July  1919, he offered many of his customers packages of the compound as A.P.C. powder, which may have been labeled "Vincent's A.P.C."  The partnership was incorporated on 11 September 1919 with paid-up capital of £200; £50 from each of the partners; later doubled to total £400. Vincent made up the compound, coloured pink, in premises adjacent to his chemist's shop, as 12 envelopes of powder in a box, or as 24 tablets in a small bottle, and labeled as "pain remedy". Printed instructions for use, supplied gratis by Clayton, were included with each package, bearing the company's trademark "Vincent's APC".
The business did not thrive initially, at least in part due to insufficient advertising, and in May 1921 Vincent sold his share of the business (as did Wills) to Probert and Mrs. Clayton, and left for America to train as a dentist, selling his chemist's shop and passing the fledgling manufacturing business to wholesale druggist William Delany. After several months of supplying Clayton and Probert with the product, he was brought into the partnership. In July 1923 the business was re-formed with three
owners, Dora Lauraine Clayton, Minnie Probert and Harriett Delany, with joint managers Mr. Probert and Mr. Delany, and in that year the company first showed a profit. They registered their trademark "Vincent's APC" on 21 July 1930, and invested heavily in advertising: £2575 in 1931, £3367 in 1932 and £4703 in 1933, in which year they made a profit of £18,400. The trademark design changed little from this time: "VINCENT'S" in white lettering on a blue rectangle, with "A•P•C" in white on a blue semicircle attached directly below, and "GENUINE (PINK)" in blue on a yellow semicircle attached above.

Return of Dr. Vincent
In 1924, Vincent returned to Sydney, having qualified as Doctor of Dental Surgery, and opened a practice in Haberfield. He was still on friendly terms with Probert, and intimated to him that he would like to rejoin the partnership, and on 8 March 1926 wrote to them with an offer, intimating that he had other products with which they could diversify, to which Delany replied on 10 March, stating that none of the shareholders was interested in his proposal, concluding ominously: "As you mention that you are desirous of putting certain new lines of chemical preparations on the Australian market, I have to remind you that perhaps the most valuable asset of the Vincent Chemical Company in this field is now its trademark ... and that it could not permit this asset to be challenged or imperilled."

In September 1932, Dr. Vincent, who had invented an analgesic toothpaste, founded a company Vincent's Products, Ltd., with a nominal capital of £1000, to manufacture and market this product. Dr. Vincent was originally appointed managing director, but died shortly after, and his widow Hilda A. Vincent (née Mills) was appointed in his place. In 1934 Vincent Chemical Co. sued Vincent's Products, Ltd. for infringement of their trademark. The court upheld the complaint and issued a limited injunction against the defendant from using that name in circumstances which might lead customers to believe the companies were associated, and awarded costs against  Vincent's Products, Ltd.

Around 1936, Vincent's APC was first also marketed in "pocket-size" rectangular cans containing 24 tablets.

Advertising slogans
1928: Take genuine Vincent's powders
1938: For safety's sake take Vincent's APC
1941: The same today as in 1917 ... Take Vincent's with confidence.
1950s: Take Vincent's with confidence for quick three-way relief Vincent's radio jingles (YouTube)
late 1970s - "It's your day, don't share it with a headache!  Vincents helps when you need help with pain." (sung)

Phenacetin dropped
At some time before 1972 Vincent Chemical Co. replaced the phenacetin in the formulation of its powders and tablets with salicylamide.  Compound analgesics were banned in Australia in 1979 due to analgesic nephropathy. Phenacetin, a pain-relieving and fever-reducing drug, was banned by the FDA in the US in 1983, due to its adverse effects, which include kidney damage (as shown by Dr. Priscilla Kincaid-Smith) and cancer.  It was replaced in many other medications by its metabolite, paracetamol.

In 1833, he decided to move west to the new town of Chicago, Illinois. As one of the few trained medical professionals in the city, he quickly rose to prominence. He represented the South Division of the city on its health committee, making him one of the two members of what was the city's first board of health. Egan became a noted orator and gave the celebratory speech at the opening of the Illinois and Michigan Canal. In 1842, Egan was elected the president of an organization of Irish Americans that sought to liberate their homeland. Aside from medical pursuits, Egan made a fortune in real estate.

Egan was elected city recorder in 1844. In 1852, Eagan was elected to the Illinois House of Representatives, where he served a two-year term. He spoke with James Henry Lane, arguing that Kansas should be admitted as a free state. In 1856, he participated in the formation of the Republican Party by presiding over two of Anson Burlingame's speeches in favor of its establishment.

Egan married Emeline W. Mabbatt in 1832. He was Episcopalian and co-founded the St. James Episcopal Church. He died at his home in Chicago on October 27, 1860, and was buried in Graceland Cemetery. Pershing Road was originally known as Egan Street in his honor.

Henry Gardiner Adams (c.1811–1881) was an English druggist and chemist, known as an author and anthologist. He wrote juvenile literature under the pseudonym Nemo.

Life
Adams acted as secretary to the Mechanics Institute at Chatham. He was also involved in the early days of the Percy Society. Bankruptcy proceedings against his druggist and chemist business in Burgate Street, Canterbury were announced in 1872. He died at Gillingham, Kent on 1 May 1881.

Political Views
In 1854 Adams edited the book God's Image In Ebony by the British abolitionists Frederick Chesson and Wilson Armistead. In the introduction to God's Image In Ebony, Adams argued that all human beings had a common origin, and hence that the enslavement of black people was immoral.
