text:
Gregorio Pio Punzalan Catapang Jr., CCLH (born 11 July 1959) is a retired Filipino general who served as the 45th Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces of the Philippines. He was the Vice Chief of Staff prior to his appointment as head of the armed forces. He was also the former head of the AFP Northern Luzon Command and 7th Infantry Division. He is part of the Philippine Military Academy Dimalupig Class of 1981. He was part of the Reform the Armed Forces Movement. On October 21, 2022, upon the suspension of BUCOR Director General Usec. Gerald Bantag, Catapang was appointed by President Bongbong Marcos as the Officer in Charge, and eventually as the Director General of the Bureau of Corrections.

Early life and education
Gregorio "Greg" Pio P. Catapang Jr. was born on July 11, 1959, in Manila. He is the second of four children of Gregorio Catapang Sr., a lawyer for the Securities and Exchange Commission, and Lourdes Punzalan, a CPA for the Department of Finance. He was named after two generals Gregorio del Pilar and Pio del Pilar. Early on in life his parents taught him the value of public service.

He attended Claret School of Quezon City highschool where he was voted as the high school class president. He entered the Philippine Military Academy in 1977 and graduated in 1981. Shortly after graduating from PMA he pursued graduate courses in the University of the Philippines and became a member of Upsilon Sigma Phi.

Military career
He moved on with his career carrying an excellent standard of performance, fine leadership, and a keen vision that resulted in accomplishments, both in garrison and field tours of duty. He held positions of major responsibility, such as: Commander of the 7th Infantry (Kaugnay) Division, Philippine Army, Commander, 703 Infantry Brigade,  of the 7ID, PA (now 10ID, PA) from September 6, 2010, to October 3, 2012; Battalion Commander of 28IB, 4ID, PA (now 10ID, PA) from November 20, 1999, to March 3, 2001; Battalion Commander of HHSBn, 4ID, PA from March 3 to December 17, 2001; Ac of S for Operations, G3, 8ID, PA from July 16, 2002, to February 1, 2003; ACUCS for CMO, U7, NOLCOM, AFP from February 19 to May 12, 2003; ACUCS for Operations, U3, NOLCOM, AFP from May 12, 2003, to October 24, 2005; and Chief of Unified Command Staff, NOLCOM, AFP from May 15 to October 24, 2005.

Communist insurgency
Catapang was instrumental in the normalization of Northern and Central Luzon. As an Army captain he helped transform Porac from a hotbed of communist insurgency to peaceful municipality. As a General by the time he left as NOLCOM Command he was able to declare Central Luzon as peaceful and ready for further development

Climate change
Catapang was recognized for significantly contributing to the relief operations in the aftermath of Tropical Storm Ondoy in 2009. At the time, he was assigned to the Office of Civil Defense.

Chief of Staff
In his talk to men, Catapang urged the troops to strictly adhere to the AFP's slogan of “Kawal DISIPLINADO, bawal ABUSADO, dapat ASINTADO”. These three key words are acronyms that spell out the dos and don'ts to be followed by every AFP personnel for them “to become proficient in fire and maneuver and be able to avoid collateral damage; be respectful of human rights, adhere to international humanitarian law and rule of law, as well as the rules of engagement of the IPSP Bayanihan.”

Catapang vowed to continue modernization of the Armed Forces of the Philippines, from being the hub of "flying coffin helicopters" and an "Itali Yan" navy, to the home of a strong and well-equipped Philippine Air Force and Philippine Navy.

Catapang promised to enhance the anti-insurgency campaign, dubbed the Internal Peace and Security Plan (IPSP), especially against the Communist Party of the Philippines-New People's Army-National Democratic Front (CPP–NPA–NDF).

In 2014, Catapang advised 40 Filipino soldiers serving as peacekeepers for the United Nations Disengagement Observer Force who were surrounded by Syrian Islamist rebels in the Golan Heights to defy an order from the commander of the UN forces to lay down their arms and surrender. The Filipino soldiers instead engaged the rebels and managed to escape.

He is the Chief of Staff during the failed rescue of 44 Special Action Force Commandos who died in Mamasapano, Maguindanao.

title: Digital Humanities Summer Institute

text:
The Digital Humanities Summer Institute (DHSI) is an annual digital humanities training program held in June at the University of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. DHSI now attracts over 600 participants for two weeks of courses, forum discussions, paper sessions, and unconferences. DHSI has an International Advisory Board.

In both the past and present, major overarching themes of DHSI have included collaboration, interdisciplinarity, and the creation and cultivation of a larger Digital Humanities community beyond the structure of the typical academic environment. It has been especially noted that DHSI encourages opportunities for digital humanists at all stages of their careers, levels of expertise in the field, and roles in the contribution to the Digital Humanities to engage and network with each other.

DHSI's course offerings run parallel to the DHSI Conference & Colloquium, formerly known as the DHSI Colloquium. Founded in 2009 by Diane Jakacki and Cara                Leitch, the event invited graduate-only submissions until 2011.

History
DHSI started in 2001 at Vancouver Island University. The inaugural DHSI event included lead speakers Susan Hockey, Nancy Ide, Willard McCarty, and John Unsworth, and there were some 35 participants in attendance. In 2004, DHSI moved to the University of Victoria, where it currently resides. It is estimated that, as of 2012, there were approximately 1,800 alumni of the institute, with a large portion returning over a period of multiple years to take further courses.

title: Wilhelm Spiegelberg

text:
Wilhelm Spiegelberg (25 June 1870, Hannover – 23 December 1930, Munich) was a German Egyptologist. He specialized in analyses of Demotic and hieratic text.

Spiegelberg grew up as the second oldest of four brothers in a German Jewish family. He studied Egyptology and archaeology in Strasbourg and Berlin, obtaining his doctorate from the University of Strasbourg in 1891. As a student his influences included Johannes Dümichen, Adolf Michaelis and Adolf Erman. After graduation, he continued his education in Paris as a student of Gaston Maspero. In 1899 he became an associate professor at Strasbourg, where in 1907 he obtained a full professorship. In 1919 he relocated to the University of Heidelberg, and four years later succeeded Friedrich Wilhelm von Bissing as chair of Egyptology at the University of Munich.

Starting in 1894, he took part in excavatory work in Egypt, most notably at the Necropolis of Thebes. Around 1900 he began work at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, serving as a cataloger and editor of Demotic material. Spiegelberg made important contributions towards the deciphering of Demotic script and in the field of Demotic lexicography.

During his tenure at Munich, he accompanied novelist Thomas Mann to Egypt, where he provided assistance towards the drafting of Mann's "Joseph" tetralogy. In 1919 he became a member of the Heidelberg Academy of Sciences (a non-resident member since 1923), and from 1924, was a full member of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences.

title: Ostren i Vogël

text:
Ostren i Vogël (, ) is a village in the former Ostren Municipality in Dibër County in northeastern Albania. At the 2015 local government reform it became part of the municipality Bulqizë. It is situated within the Gollobordë region.

Demographic history
Ostren i Vogël (Mali Ostrani) appears in the Ottoman defter of 1467 as a village in the timar of Karaca in the vilayet of Dulgoberda. The settlement had a total of seven households and the anthroponymy recorded attests to a mixed Albanian-Slavic character, with a slight predominance of Albanian personal names and patronyms (e.g., Kallam son of Gjergji, Nikolla son of Pelgrini). A certain Leka from Ohrid appears as among the household heads: Gjuro Luknisha, Mihoja son of Andrija, Gjureci son of Mihoja, Kallam son of Gjergji, Nikolla son of Pelgrini, Leka from Ohrid, and Gjureci son of Meksha.

In an 1878 report, reflecting 1873 statistics, Ostren i Vogël was recorded as having 90 households with 155 Slavic Muslims (Pomaks) and 103 Bulgarian Christians.

According to statistics gathered by Vasil Kanchov in 1900, the village of Ostren i Vogël was inhabited by 78 Christian Bulgarians and 400 Muslim Bulgarians. However, Kanchov noted that the inhabitants of the village preferred to be called Albanians and that they spoke Albanian.

The "La Macédoine et sa Population Chrétienne" survey by Dimitar Mishev concluded that the Christian population in Malo-Ostreni in 1905 was composed of 120 Bulgarian Exarchists.

The village of Ostren i Vogël is inhabited by an Albanian population which dominates demographically in the village.
Other inhabitants of Ostren i Vogël are speakers of a Eastern South Slavic language,  of whom in the village traditionally consist of a mixed Slavic Orthodox Christian (Macedonian) and Muslim (Torbeš) population.

title: Soco Gap

text:
Soco Gap (el. ) is a mountain pass between the Plott Balsam Range, to its south, and the Balsam Mountains, to its north. Also known as Ahalunun'yi (), meaning "Ambush Place" or Uni'halu'na (), meaning "where they ambushed;" named after the occasion, probably in the mid 1700s, when the Cherokees ambushed a party of invading Shawnees, all of which were killed except for one, who was sent back (without his ears) to tell his people of the Cherokee victory.

The gap is the eastern point of the Qualla Boundary, which marks the territory held as a land trust for the federally recognized Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians. The gap also separates Haywood and Jackson counties and separates the river basins to the French Broad River and Little Tennessee.

U.S. Route 19 (Soco Road) traverses through the gap, which connects Cherokee and Maggie Valley. The Blue Ridge Parkway also passes through the gap, providing scenic views along the adjacent ridge lines.

title: Palm Pistol

text:
The Palm Pistol is a pocket pistol invented by Matthew Carmel and manufactured by his company Constitution Arms in Maplewood, New Jersey. The firearm is specifically intended for use by seniors, disabled and others with limited hand strength or manual dexterity.

Overview
The gun is intended to be a single-shot weapon held in the palm of the hand with the barrel extending between the fingers. The trigger would be at the top, squeezed by the user's thumb.  Carmel stated, "I was sitting in my workshop one day, playing around with a T-handled screwdriver. And I was thinking about the recurring problem I have with the seniors I teach, loading cartridges, locking slides, and hand weakness… I was thinking minimalist. If I start with just a cartridge, what is the minimal thing I have to put around it in order to ignite the primer and send this projectile downrange?"  The T-handled screwdriver made Carmel realize that all he needed was a barrel, a breech, and a short butt or handle.

Classification
In 2008, while the gun was still in development, it was classified as a medical device by the FDA, which would have allowed reimbursements from Medicare if doctors had prescribed the pistol to eligible patients. The classification was overturned on December 8, 2008.

Rolf Lidberg Jonas (May 26, 1930 in Järkvissle, Sweden – 15 February 2005) was a Swedish artist and botanist, best known for his watercolor paintings and books with paintings of trolls depicting their life near Sweden's Indal river. In his illustrations, his trolls were very human, and usually occupied with something in nature, such as berry or mushroom picking, fishing, or gazing up in the sky. His books have been translated into 12 different languages.

Lidberg's main interest was botany, especially orchids and fungi. He was also a founder of a local mycological society in 1970, traveled around Europe to paint and draw vegetation, and spent long periods in Sicily, where he became an honorary citizen of the city Geraci Siculo.

Lidberg was known for having had hunchback and big beard, closely resembling the trolls that were one of his favorite subjects for illustration. He even named one of his famous troll illustrations, "Self-Portrait." In the early 1980s, Swedish national television channel SVT broadcast a series of three programs on Rolf Lidberg, titled, "A Man and His Flowers."

title: John Guthrie (novelist)

text:
John Guthrie (9 July 1905 – 14 March 1955), real name John Brodie, was a New Zealand journalist and novelist from New Plymouth who moved to London in 1938. He wrote several novels about New Zealand and New Plymouth.

He was born in New Plymouth and educated at New Plymouth Boys' High School and at Canterbury University College (BA and Diploma in Journalism). While studying at Canterbury College aged 26, he suffered a broken leg in a rugby accident and the leg subsequently had to be amputated; he had been regarded as a potential All Black to represent New Zealand.

He wrote his first novel The Little Country about pioneer life in 19th century New Plymouth while recovering in bed from the rugby accident. Together with Paradise Bay, they are regarded as New Zealand classics; the English critic Marghanita Laski wrote that Paradise Bay was "an excellent book and a potential New Zealand classic if ever there was one". However, Paradise Bay has been called "thin and contrived" by comparison with his first novel. The novel The Seekers was filmed in 1954 as The Seekers. Along with The Little Country, both novels were controversial in New Plymouth as some locals thought they recognised themselves in the novels.

He moved to London in 1938, and in World War II was an Intelligence Officer in the Royal Air Force. Postwar in London, he edited Books of Today and then was assistant editor of World's Press News.

He married his American wife Elinor Roddam in 1952; they had no children. While returning to England from a ten weeks visit to New Zealand, he died at sea from coronary thrombosis on the liner Rangitikei. The Times reported that "Mr John Brodie, a New Zealand novelist who wrote under the pen name "John Guthrie" died at sea suddenly on Monday evening at the age of 49".

title: Due Drop

text:
Due Drop is the debut studio album by South African singer Toya Delazy. It was released by SME Africa on 23 April 2012. The album is a fusion of JEHP, an acronym for Jazz, Electro, Hip hop, and Pop. Production for the standard edition of the album was primarily handled by Jax Panik. The Johannesburg-based production duo Octave Couplet also assisted with production. The deluxe edition of the album includes addition production and remixes from Justin Denobrega, Pascal & Pearce, and Classy Menace.

The album's standard edition features The Soil and its deluxe edition features Ross Jack. Due Drop was preceded by the release of two singles: "Pump It On" and "Love Is In the Air". The artwork for all three installments of the album was conceptualized and created by photographer Ross Garrett.

Due Drop received generally mixed reviews from music critics, who commended its production, sound and commercial appeal. The album sold over 20,000 copies and was awarded a Gold plaque by the Recording Industry of South Africa. The deluxe edition of the album won Best Pop Album at the 2013 South African Music Awards, and was nominated in two categories at the 2013 Metro FM Music Awards. Delazy won Newcomer of the Year at the aforementioned SAMAs, and received a total of two nominations at the aforementioned Metro FM Music Awards for her work on the album.

Composition
The song "Love Is In the Air" has elements of house groove beats. "Are You Gonna Stay?" is a mid tempo song; Delazy's vocals on the song is reminiscent of Nicki Minaj. "Jai Lover" is an electro pop song  with Zulu lyrics. "Yeah Hell Yeah (With You)" is an ode to her sexual instincts. Delazy meditated and thought in silence on the broken hearted ballad "Love Takes Time". "Memoriam" is an electro anthem centered around the loss of love and life.

Singles
"Pump It On" was released as the album's lead single on 28 October 2011. The song was produced by Jax Van Heerden and Johnny Deridder. It received substantial airplay on 5FM and Metro FM. The music video for the song was released on November 15, 2011.

On 2 April 2012, SME Africa released "Love Is In the Air" as the album's second single. Its music video was uploaded onto Vevo on 26 March 2012. Classy Menace's remix of the song appeared on the deluxe edition of the album. The album's third single "Are You Gonna Stay" was released simultaneously with its video on 27 July 2012.

"Heart" was released as the fourth single from the album. The Pascal & Pearce-produced remix of the song appeared on the album's deluxe edition. The music video for "Heart" was directed by Jeana Theron of Velocity Films and aided by the non-profit organization Great Heart. The video was shot in three days; a full hour was spent shooting 12 frames.

On 30 September 2013, Delazy released the album's fifth single "Memoriam". The song was written in honor of one of her teachers who died in 2009. It explores themes of agony and despair, as well as the acceptance and curing that comes with time. Delazy stated that writing the song alleviated some of her psychological and emotional trauma. Channel 24 included the song on their list of the 15 of the best SA songs of 2013. The music video for "Memoriam" was shot and directed in Gauteng by Fausto Becatti.

Critical reception

Due Drop received mixed reviews from music critics. Georgina Marques of Channel 24 (a subsidiary of News24) gave the album 3 stars out 5, calling it "unashamedly pop" and saying "Toya's Jazz background and classical training allow most of the songs to transcend the superficial genre offering a more layered and interesting sound." Genevieve Vieira for Indie Does It said the album is "altogether satisfactory" and further stated that Delazy "has everything it takes, from the style, to the voice, flair and talent".

Nyeleti Machovani of Radio Biz extensively said, "the album is poppy, electro, and very much a dance-album; the lyrics do not offer much depth. The auto-tune is dominant, and this is a distraction to an artist who otherwise, has more to show." Molebogeng Maunatlala of GoXtra News said the album is accommodating because it "satisfies all the music lovers, and goes from Jazz, soul, hip hop to house". Lebohang Nthongoa of The Times said it is "catchy and has a vibe all its own". You Magazine gave the album a 4 out of 5 rating.

Accolades
The deluxe edition of the album won Best Pop Album at the 2013 South African Music Awards, and was nominated in two categories at the 2013 Metro FM Music Awards. Delazy's work on the album earned her the Newcomer of the Year category at the aforementioned SAMAs. Moreover, Jax Panik won the Best Producer category for his work on the deluxe edition. Delazy received a total of two nominations at the aforementioned Metro FM Music Awards for her work on the album.

title: 5 Serpentis

text:
5 Serpentis is a wide binary star system in Serpens Caput, the western section of the equatorial constellation of Serpens. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.10. Based upon an annual parallax shift of  as viewed from Earth's orbit, it is located 83 light years away. The brighter member is an IAU radial velocity standard star, and it is moving away from the Sun with a heliocentric radial velocity of +54.3 km/s. The system made its closest approach to the Sun about 153,000 years ago at a separation of .

The primary, component A, is an F-type subgiant star with a stellar classification of F8 IV, a star that has exhausted its core hydrogen and is evolving to become a red giant. The star was once thought to be a BY Draconis variable with the variable star designation MQ Ser, but has been found not to be. From observations made between 1975 and 1980, Bakos (1983) reported random, small brightness variations with an amplitude of less than 0.03 magnitude, plus three flare events that increased the brightness by 0.1 magnitudes. However, Scarfe (1985) noted that these observations may instead be due to normal observational error.

The common proper motion companion, component B, is a magnitude 10.11 star at an angular separation of  along a position angle of 35°. It has an estimated orbital period of 3,371 years. According to Hoffleit (1991), if this is a variable star it may account for the observations of Bakos (1983).

title: Primitive recursive set function

text:
In mathematics,  primitive recursive set functions or  primitive recursive ordinal functions are analogs of primitive recursive functions, defined for sets or ordinals rather than natural numbers. They were introduced by .

Definition

A primitive recursive set function is a function from sets to sets that can be obtained from the following basic functions by repeatedly applying the following rules of substitution and recursion:

The basic functions are:
Projection: Pn,m(x1, ..., xn) = xm for 0 ≤ m ≤ n
Zero: F(x) = 0
Adjoining an element to a set: F(x, y) = x ∪ {y}
Testing membership: C(x, y, u, v) = x if u ∈ v, and C(x, y, u, v) = y otherwise.

The rules for generating new functions by substitution are
F(x, y) = G(x, H(x), y)
F(x, y) = G(H(x), y)
where x and y are finite sequences of variables.

The rule for generating new functions by recursion is
F(z, x) = G(∪u∈z F(u, x), z, x)

A primitive recursive ordinal function is defined in the same way, except that the initial function F(x, y) = x ∪ {y} is replaced by F(x) = x ∪ {x} (the successor of x). The primitive recursive ordinal functions are the same as the primitive recursive set functions that map ordinals to ordinals.

Examples of primitive recursive set functions:
TC, the function assigning to a set its transitive closure.
Given hereditarily finite , the constant function .

Extensions
One can also add more initial functions to obtain a larger class of functions. For example, the ordinal function  is not primitive recursive, because the constant function with value ω (or any other infinite set) is not primitive recursive, so one might want to add this constant function to the initial functions.

The notion of a set function being primitive recursive in ω has the same definition as that of primitive recursion, except with ω as a parameter kept fixed, not altered by the primitive recursion schemata.

Examples of functions primitive recursive in ω: pp.28--29
.
The function assigning to  the th level  of Godel's constructible hierarchy.

Primitive recursive closure
Let  be the function , and for all ,  and . Let Lα denote the αth stage of Godel's constructible universe. Lα is closed under primitive recursive set functions iff α is closed under each  for all .

title: 10 Serpentis

text:
10 Serpentis is a single, white-hued star in Serpens Caput, the western section of the equatorial constellation of Serpens. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.15. Located around  distant, it is moving closer to the Sun with a heliocentric radial velocity of −10 km/s and will make its closest approach in around 983,000 years at a separation of about .

Abt and Morrell (1995) gave this star a stellar classification of A6 III, matching an evolved red giant star that has used up its core hydrogen. In contrast, Houk and Swift (1999) classed it A7 IV, which is more in line with an evolving subgiant star that is on its way to becoming a giant. It has a high rate of spin with a projected rotational velocity of 115 km/s, giving it an oblate shape with an equatorial bulge that is an estimated 7% larger than the polar radius. The star is about 424 million years old with 1.64 times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 12 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of roughly 7,872 K.

title: Hydroxybupropion

text:
Hydroxybupropion (code name BW 306U), or 6-hydroxybupropion, is the major active metabolite of the antidepressant and smoking cessation drug bupropion. It is formed from bupropion by the liver enzyme CYP2B6 during first-pass metabolism. With oral bupropion treatment, hydroxybupropion is present in plasma at area under the curve concentrations that are as many as 16–20 times greater than those of bupropion itself, demonstrating extensive conversion of bupropion into hydroxybupropion in humans. As such, hydroxybupropion is likely to play a very important role in the effects of oral bupropion, which could accurately be thought of as functioning largely as a prodrug to hydroxybupropion. Other metabolites of bupropion besides hydroxybupropion include threohydrobupropion and erythrohydrobupropion.

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics
Compared to bupropion, hydroxybupropion is similar in its potency as a norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (IC50 = 1.7 μM), but is substantially weaker as a dopamine reuptake inhibitor (IC50 = >10 μM). Like bupropion, hydroxybupropion is also a non-competitive antagonist of nACh receptors, such as α4β2 and α3β4, but is even more potent in comparison.

Pharmacokinetics
Bupropion is extensively and rapidly absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract but experiences extensive first pass metabolism rendering its systemic bioavailability limited. Exact bioavailability has yet to be determined given an intravenous form does not exist. Absorption is suggested to be between 80 and 90%. Its distribution half-life is between 3–4 hours and exhibits moderate human plasma protein binding (between 82 and 88%) with the parent compound and hydroxybupropion displaying the highest affinity. Bupropion is a racemic mixture and is metabolized hepatically primarily via oxidative cleavage of its side chains by CYP2B6. Hydroxybupropion is the most potent of the metabolites. It is formed via the "hydroxylation of the tert-butyl group" by CYP2B6 and is excreted renally. Cmax values of hydroxybupropion are 4–7 times that of bupropion, while the exposure to hydroxybupropion is "10 fold" that of bupropion. Hydroxybupropion's elimination half-life is roughly 20 hours, give or take 5 hours and will reach steady state concentrations within 8 days.

Chemistry
Hydroxybupropion is a racemic mixture of (R,R)-hydroxybupropion and (S,S)-hydroxybupropion.

Research
Although there are patents proposing uses and formulations of this compound, hydroxybupropion is not currently marketed as a drug in and of itself and is only available for use in non-clinical research. Hydroxybupropion is not a scheduled drug or a controlled substance. One can access GLP (Good Lab Practice) documents detailing assays/techniques to further research and isolate this drug. Otherwise, there is little regulatory data available for hydroxybupropion at this time. Moreover, there is little information to suggest hydroxybupropion has an abuse potential. However, it has been studied as a possible therapeutic for alcohol and nicotine use as a codrug.

There are few clinical trials or toxicology studies assessing hydroxybupropion alone at this time. There are clinical studies which assess hydroxybupropion in conjunction with bupropion suggesting hydroxybupropion to be the primary form of the compound responsible for its clinical efficacy. Also, transdermal delivery of bupropion and hydroxybupropion has been assessed finding bupropion to be the superior candidate given its elevated diffusion rate through skin samples. There are few toxicology studies assessing hydroxybupropion alone at this time. However, there are some studies which assess this compound in conjunction with others or its parent compound.

title: The Newburgh Sting

text:
The Newburgh Sting is a 2014 documentary film about the Federal Bureau of Investigation's sting operation on four Muslim men involved in the 2009 Bronx terrorism plot. Beginning in 2008, an FBI informant, Shaheed Hussain, recorded hours of conversations with the men who were ultimately arrested and convicted of planting three non-functional bombs next to two synagogues in Riverdale, Bronx and for planning to use Stinger missiles to shoot down United States military cargo planes near Newburgh, New York. The documentary shows that the four men were coaxed into participating in the plot by an FBI informant  and offered incentives including $250,000. The men's lawyers, including Sam Braverman, who is featured prominently in the film, argue that this was a case of entrapment. Also featured in the film is Michael German, a former undercover FBI agent and a current fellow in the Brennan Center for Justice's Liberty and National Security program.

Awards

The film was shown at the Tribeca Film Festival. It won a Peabody Award and a Founder's Prize special award at the Traverse City Film Festival.

title: Swiftype

text:
Swiftype is a search and index company based in San Francisco, California, that provides search software for organizations, websites, and computer programs. Notable customers include AT&T, Dr. Pepper, Hubspot and TechCrunch.

History
Swiftype was founded in 2012 by Matt Riley and Quin Hoxie. The company participated in Y Combinator’s incubator program and received investment from a number of prominent sources. Their site search uses semantic understanding of queries to differentiate the meaning of words based on their use.

In September 2013, Swiftype obtained Series A funding from New Enterprise Associates (NEA). In March 2015, Swiftype raised an additional $13 million in Series B funding led by NEA for a total of $20 million in funding. They used some of these funds to expand into areas outside of site search, especially for knowledge bases, customer support and e-commerce.

Swiftype's site search can be used for faceted search, full text search, real-time search, and concept search queries. The company's plans offer on-demand and live recrawls and indexing of websites. Other features include drag and drop result customization, real-time analytics and adjustable weights.

In an effort to further grow outside of site search, Swiftype introduced an enterprise search service in February 2017. It aimed to help organizations find their data across different services like G Suite, Office 365, Dropbox, Zendesk and more. It also offers an API for searching custom data sources. Swiftype also introduced an artificial intelligence that interprets the queries and builds an "enterprise knowledge graph" from the data it accesses.

Swiftype was acquired by Elastic in November 2017. Elastic powers Elasticsearch, a tool Swiftype had previously used to index and store their search content. While the acquisition didn't provide any drastic changes, they did set a new introductory price and work to incorporate some of Elastic's search features into their Enterprise Search.

In May 2018, Swiftype introduced Elastic App Search Service, a new search product for developers.

At the New Delhi launch of the book, the author stated that, "This book is not only about the Jarawa tribe in The Andaman Islands, it also asks the question that whether a bunch of boys and girls, today's youth, can fight for a cause they believe in, and how far are they willing to go for it." As a part of his social entrepreneurship travel project, he has collaborated with NGOs like the Survival International to push the cause of the marginalized in India and to weave narratives around these issues in an engaging writing style which will reach out to his huge youth following across the country.

Described as an 'author worth checking out' MTV, 'a must read author' Red FM, 'a writer who will be enjoyed by all' Times of India, he continues to write stories which redefine genres in the Indian publishing industry.

Personal life
Sachin Garg was born and brought up in New Delhi. He completed his schooling at the N. K. Bagrodia Public School, Rohini and went on to pursue electronics and communication engineering from the Delhi College of Engineering (now Delhi Technological University). He did his post graduation from Management Development Institute and also from IAE Paris. He started writing while he was still in college. In 2011, he quit his job at JSW Steel Ltd and co-founded Grapevine India Publishers Pvt. Ltd. with Durjoy Datta.

He is the son of author and essayist, Leonard Kriegel. He grew up in New York City, and attended Stuyvesant High School, Swarthmore College, and the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.

Author
Kriegel is the author of critically acclaimed New York Times bestsellers, Namath: A Biography, about Hall of Fame quarterback Joe Namath, and Pistol: the Life of Pete Maravich. His 2012 book, The Good Son: The Life of Ray “Boom Boom” Mancini – about a boxer's relationship with his father, and a man who died at his hands in the ring – was made into a documentary by the same name.

Kriegel's work often focuses on conflicts between fathers and sons in sports – especially boxing. A front-page column he wrote for the New York Post, detailing the relationship between boxing trainer Teddy Atlas, Mafia figure Sammy (“the Bull”) Gravano, and Gravano's son, became the basis for his novel, Bless Me, Father, which drew praise from the writer Richard Price, and the Los Angeles Times (which called it “mesmerizing.”)

Journalism
He worked as a general assignment reporter at The Miami Herald and The New York Daily News. In 1990, his piece for the Daily News Sunday Magazine, “The People’s Court” – an examination of basketball culture in New York – was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in the Feature Writing category.

The following year, he became a sports columnist at the New York Post. From 1994 to 2001, he was a columnist at the Daily News. He has also been a national columnist at FOXSports.com, and a contributing writer for Esquire. His Esquire profile of boxer Oscar De Hoya – “The Great (Almost) White Hope” was anthologized in At the Fights: American Writers on Boxing and The Book of Boxing, edited by W.C. Heinz.

Television
In 2011–12, Kriegel hosted a sports-themed interview show, Barfly, for FOX Sports Net. In June, 2012, he joined the NFL Network as an analyst on the launch of its morning show, NFL AM. He now does essay pieces for the network's Total Access show and Sunday features for Game Day Morning. Kriegel also writes the Emmy-winning All Access series for Showtime. His All Access: Chávez, about the turbulent relationship between the great Mexican boxer, Julio César Chávez, and his son, Julio Jr., explores the same father-son themes Kriegel focused on as a biographer.

He has been part of Emmy-winning teams for the NFL Network (2013 for “Outstanding New Approaches”) and Showtime (2015 for “Outstanding Sports Documentary Series”)

In January, 2016, Showtime launched a digital series, “The Reveal with Mark Kriegel,” featuring deep dive, often emotional interviews with boxers and other sports personalities."

In 2017, he wrote and co-produced a feature-length documentary about Prison Fight “Prison Fighters: 5 Rounds to Freedom,” the story of a controversial government program that allows inmates to fight for their freedom in Muay Thai matches. The program, as Kriegel told the New York Post: “Can violent men redeem themselves through violent acts?”

In 2022, Kriegel narrated a tribute package for Shad Gaspard's posthumous induction into the WWE Hall of Fame as the class of 2022's Warrior Award recipient

“He's been a part of three Emmy-winning teams for the NFL Network and Showtime.

Personal
Kriegel lives in Santa Monica, California, with his daughter, Holiday.

At three years of age, Yoshikawa started to learn to play the piano. He could listen to music on a hand-turned or electric gramophone imported from the United States by his great-grandfather. Yoshikawa was educated at the Sakaide elementary and lower secondary schools which were associated with the Faculty of Education at Kagawa University. At school, Yoshikawa used a tape recorder to record his piano and guitar compositions and performances. Whilst enrolled at the University of Tsukuba, Yoshikawa met Ushio Amagatsu, who was the organizer of Sankai Juku and a former member of the Kinkan Shonen piano trio.

In 1986, Yoshikawa, Takashi Kako, and Yasukazu Sato (Yas Kaz) became the directors of Sankai Juku.

He has also produced sound tracks for animations such as Oz created by Natsumi Itsuki and music for the Anime cartoon, Kyo Kara Maoh! (2004). Yoshikawa has collaborated with artists such as Princess Princess, Agnes Chan, Yuki Saito and Sophie Marceau.
