title: Philip Frederick of the Palatinate

text:
John Philip Frederick of the Palatinate (16 September 1627 – 16 December 1650), was the seventh son of Frederick V, Elector Palatine (of the House of Wittelsbach), the "Winter King" of Bohemia, by his consort, the Scottish princess Elizabeth Stuart.

Early years
Prince Philip was born in The Hague, where his parents lived in exile after his father lost the Battle of White Mountain and was driven from the thrones of both Bohemia and the Palatinate. His father, a Calvinist, died on 29 November 1632, when Philip was five years old.

He and his older brother Edward were educated at the French court, at the request of his elder brother, Charles I Louis, but were sent back to The Hague by request of their mother after the French temporarily took Charles Louis prisoner.

Scandal and exile
On the night of June 20th, 1646 Prince Philip killed the French exile Lieutenant Colonel Jacques de l'Epinay, Sieur de Vaux, in a duel or fight. Rumours declared that the taunt which had provoked Prince Philip to murder had been a boast of the French Don Juan that he had enjoyed the favours not only of Philip's older sister, the Princess Louise, but also of their widowed mother.

In spite of repeated summonses, Prince Philip never appeared to answer the Dutch legal authorities. He became what Elizabeth had sworn that none of her sons should become - a soldier of fortune.

Military career and death
Philip entered the military service of the Duke of Lorraine with the rank of colonel. He was killed at the Battle of Rethel on 16 December 1650, during the Fronde. His remains were returned to Sedan and were buried in the Church of Saint Charles.

title: San Andreas (film)

text:
San Andreas is a 2015 American disaster film directed by Brad Peyton and written by Carlton Cuse, with Andre Fabrizio and Jeremy Passmore receiving story credit. The film stars Dwayne Johnson, in the lead role, Carla Gugino, Alexandra Daddario, Ioan Gruffudd, Archie Panjabi and Paul Giamatti. Its plot centers on a massive earthquake caused by the San Andreas Fault, devastating the West Coast of the United States.

Principal photography of the film started on April 22, 2014, in Queensland, Australia, and wrapped up on July 28 in San Francisco. The film premiered in Hollywood, Los Angeles, on May 26, 2015, and was released in the United States on May 29. It received mixed reviews from critics, praising the visual effects and Johnson and Gugino's performances, but criticizing the plot and characters. The film grossed $474 million worldwide.

Plot
Caltech seismologist Dr. Lawrence Hayes and his colleague Dr. Kim Park are at Hoover Dam testing a new earthquake prediction model when a nearby and previously unknown fault ruptures, triggering a 7.1-magnitude earthquake that collapses the dam. Park sacrifices himself to save a young girl and gets swept away by the water.

Hayes discovers that the entire San Andreas Fault is shifting and will soon cause several massive earthquakes, potentially destroying cities along the fault line. He begins racing to warn the population of California, along with his students Alexi and Phoebe and reporter Serena Johnson.

When a 9.1-magnitude earthquake devastates Los Angeles and San Francisco, Ray Gaines, a LAFD helicopter rescue pilot going through a divorce from his wife Emma, finds himself rescuing her from a skyscraper in Los Angeles.

Meanwhile, their daughter Blake has been visiting San Francisco with Emma's new boyfriend, Daniel; at that moment, an earthquake strikes the city. Rubble from the collapsing parking garage pins her in Daniel's car. Panicking, Daniel leaves Blake in an act of cowardice. Ben Taylor, a British engineer seeking employment at Daniel's firm, and Ben's younger brother Ollie rescue Blake, and they reach Chinatown, successfully calling her parents for help.

Ray and Emma attempt to reach San Francisco in Ray's helicopter until it suffers a gearbox failure, forcing them to make an emergency landing at a shopping mall in Bakersfield. Amid the chaos of looting, Ray steals a truck to continue the journey. The pair encounters a couple broken down on the side of the road shortly before the San Andreas Fault, which has torn a large fissure through the highway and extends for the perceivable length of the fault in either direction.

Ray and Emma exchange the truck for an aeroplane the couple owns. As Blake, Ben, and Ollie attempt to reach Nob Hill to signal the pair after finding their previous meeting point at Coit Tower engulfed in flames, Ray and Emma parachute into AT&T Park just before a 9.6-magnitude quake hits, becoming the largest recorded earthquake in history.

As the quake subsides, having destroyed much of the city, Ray and Emma commandeer a boat to reach the group, only to realise a tsunami is approaching San Francisco Bay. Alongside a handful of other survivors in small ships, the two cross the wave before it crests, barely avoiding a container ship caught up in the tsunami wave. The ship crashes into the Golden Gate Bridge's centre span, killing everyone on the bridge, including Daniel, who gets crushed by a falling shipping container.

The tsunami strikes the ruined city, capsizing a cruise ship and killing thousands more. Blake, Ben, and Ollie enter the Gate, a building whose construction Daniel had been overseeing, but are still caught by the wave. As the building begins to collapse, trapping Blake underwater, Ray dives in, rescues her, and performs CPR. Emma crashes the boat through a window and drives the five of them out of the collapsing building as Ray resuscitates Blake.

The survivors regroup at a relief camp on the other side of the bay, where the reconciled Ray and Emma talk about their future. On the remains of the Golden Gate Bridge, an American flag unfolds, giving hope that the city will recover and rebuild as rescue vehicles descend on the destroyed landscape of the San Francisco Bay Area, which now extends from San Jose to Santa Cruz, turning the San Francisco Peninsula into an island.

On March 20, 2014, it was announced that Gods of Egypt had started production in Australia, and San Andreas was set to begin soon after. On April 16, 2014, Johnson tweeted photos from the training for the film.

Filming began on April 22, 2014, in Australia and was also shot in the Los Angeles area, Bakersfield, and San Francisco. On May 12, shooting took place in the Lockyer Valley. On May 10–11, shooting was taking place in Los Angeles and then production went back to Australia to complete the rest of shooting. On May 17, second unit was filming scenes in Bakersfield where a helicopter was spotted, while Johnson was busy in Gold Coast. On June 22, the crew was spotted filming disaster scenes on Elizabeth Street in Brisbane.

The film's second-unit started shooting on July 8, in San Francisco, while the first unit began shooting on July 21, wrapping up on July 27.

Three teasers were revealed and two of them include Robot Koch & Delhia de France and Sia singing "California Dreamin'" by The Mamas and the Papas.

Visual effects
The visual effects are provided by Hydraulx, Cinesite and Image Engine and Supervised by Greg and Colin Strause, Holger Voss and Martyn Culpitt with help from Scanline VFX and Method Studios.

Release
San Andreas premiered on May 26, 2015, at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles. It was initially scheduled for a 2D and 3D release on June 5, 2015, but was later moved up a week. San Andreas was also released in Dolby Vision, making it Warner Bros. Pictures' first film to adopt the format.

Home media
San Andreas was released as a digital download, and on Blu-ray and DVD on October 13, 2015. Upon its first week of release on home media in the U.S., the film topped the Nielsen VideoScan First Alert chart, which tracks overall disc sales, and debuted at number 2 at the Blu-ray Disc sales chart with 40% of unit sales coming from Blu-ray, a surprisingly low ratio given the film's over-the-top special effects. It was blocked by the Diamond Edition Blu-ray Disc edition of the 1992 Disney animated classic Aladdin. As of 2016, it is available in 4K UHD Blu-ray.

Reception

Box office
San Andreas grossed $155.2 million in North America and $318.8 million in other territories for a worldwide total of $474 million. Deadline Hollywood calculated the film's net profit as $88.07 million, accounting for production budgets, marketing, talent participations, and other costs; box office grosses and home media revenues placed it eighteenth on their list of 2015's "Most Valuable Blockbusters". Since its release, the film remains the biggest-grossing live-action Hollywood original film of the past seven years as of July 2022.

North America
San Andreas opened in North America across 3,777 theaters including a total of 3,200 3D locations. Several days prior to the film's release various box office pundits were predicting a $40 million or more opening in North America. It made $3.1 million from Thursday night showings and $18.2 million on its opening day. It earned $54.5 million in its opening weekend which was well above the tracking and predictions. It was Johnson's biggest opening as a lead actor, surpassing the $36 million debut of his The Scorpion King in 2002 even after adjusting for inflation. Warner Bros. distribution chief Dan Fellman commented about the successful opening, saying that audiences never get tired of disaster films, even going back to The Poseidon Adventure (1972). He added, "What also gets tiring is when you start to do sequels of the same thing. It needs to be fresh, and you have to have the right chemistry in the cast", pointing out the originality of the film, and the performances of Johnson and the other cast, as some of the factors behind the film's successful opening. In its second weekend, it experienced a drop of 52% earning an estimated $26.4 million, falling in second place (behind Spy), but experiencing a smaller fall than that of other disaster movies.

Outside North America
Outside North America, the film opened in a total of 60 countries in the same weekend, including France, the United Kingdom, Mexico and Australia. It opened Wednesday, May 27 in 4 countries, added 38 countries on Thursday and 18 more countries on Friday, May 29 and through Sunday, May 31 earned a 5-day opening weekend total of $63.9 million from 15,420 screens in 60 countries debuting at first place in 55 of those countries as well as at the international box office. In its second weekend, it added $97.7 million. It topped the box office outside of North America for two consecutive weekends before being overtaken by Jurassic World in its third weekend.

It had the biggest opening for a disaster movie and second-biggest for Warner Bros. in Mexico with $10.1 million from 3,100 screens. In China, it had a three-day opening weekend of $35 million and six-day opening total of $51.8 million from 8,795 screens, although Chinese box office analysts site Entgroup reported a $55 million opening. Despite health concerns over the MERS virus, which resulted in the plunge of theater admissions, the film opened to $7.2 million in South Korea (including Wednesday sneaks) and topped the box office. It had similar successful openings in the UK, Ireland and Malta ($7.2 million), Russia and the CIS ($5.3 million), Brazil ($3.2 million) France ($3.1 million), India ($2.5 million),  Australia ($2.4 million), Hong Kong ($2.2 million) and Germany ($2 million). It became Warner Bros.' highest-grossing film of all time in Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Peru and Venezuela, and in China it is the fourth highest. As of June 28, 2015 in total earnings, its largest market outside of North America are China ($103.2 million) and Mexico ($28.4 million).

Critical response
On Rotten Tomatoes, a review aggregator, the film has an approval rating of  based on  reviews and an average rating of . The website's critical consensus reads, "San Andreas has a great cast and outstanding special effects, but amidst all the senses-shattering destruction, the movie's characters and plot prove less than structurally sound." On Metacritic, the film has a score of 43 out of 100 based on 42 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews". Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A−" on an A+ to F scale.

IGN awarded it a score of 7.5 out of 10, saying, "There are some cracks in the foundation, but San Andreas is solid popcorn fare thanks to sharp visuals and The Rock."

Writing in Variety, Andrew Barker wrote, "Of the many charges that can be levied against Brad Peyton's San Andreas, false advertising is not one of them. The disaster pic promises nothing more than the complete CGI destruction of California as foregrounded by Dwayne Johnson's jackfruit-sized biceps, and it delivers exactly that". Andrew O'Hehir wrote in Salon,  "Considered as pure spectacle, San Andreas is gripping and effective, as well as a somewhat interesting form of counter-narrative: A vision of near-term apocalypse that has nothing to do with climate change, monsters or alien invaders".  Entertainment Weekly's critic Chris Nashawaty wrote, "As patently preposterous, scientifically dubious, and unapologetically corny as director Brad Peyton's orgy of CGI devastation is, its popcorn prophecy of the inevitable is a blast of giddy, disposable fun". Mick LaSalle wrote in The San Francisco Chronicle, "Some movies are easy to mock, but hard to resist. This is one of them".

The American Geosciences Institute's Earth Magazine called the film "dreadful" and criticized it for "perpetuat[ing] geologic absurdities", also pointing out that "despite the notoriety of the San Andreas Fault, it is not the greatest seismic threat to the Bay Area", with the nearby Hayward Fault having the potential to cause immense damage to bridges, roads, utilities and communications with a smaller magnitude quake due to its proximity to areas of dense urban population. While a full rupture along the Cascadia Subduction Zone would be the worst disaster of US history, a rupture along the Hayward fault would affect a much smaller area where the impact on the urban infrastructure could be mitigated by retrofitting, enforcement of seismic building codes and other preparedness measures.

Accolades
At the 2015 Teen Choice Awards, San Andreas was nominated for Choice Movie: Action. Daddario and Johnson received a nomination for Choice Movie Actress: Action and Choice Summer Movie Star: Male, respectively. It garnered nominations for Outstanding Visual Effects in a Photoreal Feature, Outstanding Effects Simulations in a Photoreal Feature (earned two), and Outstanding Compositing in a Feature Motion Picture at the 14th Visual Effects Society Awards. Johnson was nominated for Best Action Performance and Best Hero at the 2016 MTV Movie Awards.

Sequel
In February 2016, New Line announced a sequel is in development and its plot will reportedly focus on the Ring of Fire. Neil Widener and Gavin James were hired as screenwriters, while Brad Peyton and Beau Flynn will return as director and producer, respectively. Johnson is set to reprise his role, while Gugino, Daddario and Giamatti are expected to return as well. Johnson and Peyton were announced to serve as producers.  In July 2021, Daddario expressed her doubts that a sequel was happening.

In November 2021, Johnson announced that they are still developing the sequel, while stating that scheduling conflicts are why the production has not started yet. He elaborated that his studio looks for projects that have what they internally call the "Moses Effect", explaining that this means that they take immediate precedence over the rest of the many projects on their film-slate; stating that he feels like the sequel falls into this category. In December 2021, Hiram Garcia confirmed that Warner Bros. Pictures wants a sequel, while Seven Bucks Productions delayed development in favor of other projects.

title: Charles Ollier

text:
Charles Ollier (1788–1859) was an English publisher and author, associated with the works of Percy Bysshe Shelley and John Keats.

Early life
From a Huguenot background, Ollier began life in the banking-house of Messrs. Coutts. About 1816 he was in business as a publisher in Vere Street, Bond Street, in partnership with his brother James, who was more the man of business.

Publisher
Ollier made the acquaintance of Leigh Hunt, and undertook the publication of some of his works: Foliage, Hero and Leander, and the second edition of The Story of Rimini. Through Hunt, Ollier became known to John Keats, and volunteered to publish his first poems (1817). The book did not succeed, however, and Keats quarrelled with him, publishing his subsequent books with Taylor & Hessey.

Shelley was more constant, although he objected to Ollier's insistence on the alterations which converted Laon and Cythna into The Revolt of Islam. All the subsequent works of Shelley published in his lifetime, except Swellfoot the Tyrant, were brought out by Ollier. Shelley's letters to Ollier are published in the Shelley Memorials.

The most important of Ollier's other publications were the collected works of Charles Lamb and several of Barry Cornwall's early volumes. In 1819 he published The Literary Pocket Book, in which Shelley's poem of Marianne's Dream was first printed.

In 1820 Ollier brought out Ollier's Literary Miscellany, with an article on the German drama by Julius Hare, and The Four Ages of Poetry by Thomas Love Peacock. The latter provoked Shelley's A Defence of Poetry, given to Ollier for the second part of the Miscellany, which never appeared. When Ollier's business was wound up shortly afterwards, the Defence came into the possession of John Hunt; he prepared it for publication in The Liberal, but that periodical also expired before it could be published.

Ollier became, and long continued as, a literary adviser to Richard Bentley.

In a letter to Hunt, Ollier wrote that his son William (reportedly a journalist with a fascination for etymology) coined ghoti, a comical respelling of the word fish.

Death
Ollier died at Old Brompton on 5 June 1859. Edmund Ollier the journalist was his son.

Works
Ollier published:

 Altham and his Wife: A Domestic Tale, 1818.
 Inesilla; or the Tempter: a Romance, with other Tales, 1824.
 Ferrers, 1842, a romance on the execution of Earl Ferrers in 1760, somewhat in the style of Harrison Ainsworth.
 Fallacy of Ghosts, Dreams, and Omens, with Stories of Witchcraft, Life-in-Death, and Monomania, 1848; reprinted from Ainsworth's Magazine.

Letters from Leigh Hunt suggest that Ollier wrote for the Naval and Military Gazette, as well as for Ainsworth's Magazine.

title: Plocamopherus margaretae

text:
Plocamopherus margaretae is a species of sea slug, a nudibranch, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusk in the family Polyceridae.

Description
"In life, the body shape is elongate and anteriorly rounded. The oral veil is wide, flattened and fringed. The oral tentacles are flat. Plocamopherus margaretae has a pink or red background color heavily speckled all over the body with large white spots and black, almost oval spots. The white spots are of various sizes and are regularly scattered on the notum. The black spots appear always surrounded by white, and are much fewer than the white spots. A yellow-orange line runs along the margin of the foot, the margin of the oral veil and the margin of the keel. The rhinophores are yellow-pink for their whole length. At the tip of the clavus there is a short white line. The rhinophoral sheath is the same background color as the body and is short with its margin lined by white and yellow pigment. There are three pairs of lateral appendages, which are rounded and form prominent globular structures. These globular structures are much larger in the posterior most pair of appendages. The anterior pairs are very short and rounded. All are pink-yellowish in color. There are three tripinnate branchial leaves that each insert separately into the dorsum. The posterior portion of the foot forms a well-developed elongated keel that is slightly fringed in its upper margin."

Distribution
This species was described from Myanmar. It has also been reported from Dubai.

title: XMEN disease

text:
XMEN disease is a rare genetic disorder of the immune system that illustrates the role of glycosylation in the function of the immune system.  XMEN stands for “X-linked MAGT1 deficiency with increased susceptibility to Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) infection and N-linked glycosylation defect.”  The disease is characterized by CD4 lymphopenia, severe chronic viral infections, and defective T-lymphocyte activation. Investigators in the laboratory of Dr. Michael Lenardo, National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the National Institutes of Health first described this condition in 2011.

Presentation

XMEN patients have splenomegaly, chronic Epstein Barr Virus (EBV) infection, and are developmentally normal.  They have an increased susceptibility for developing EBV+ lymphoma.  Additionally, XMEN patients have excessive infections consistent with the underlying immunodeficiency.  These infections included recurrent otitis media, sinusitis, viral pneumonia, diarrhea, upper respiratory infections, epiglottitis, and pertussis.  Although autoimmune symptoms do not feature prominently in XMEN autoimmune cytopenias were observed in two unrelated patients.

In the figure to the left, major features are present in all XMEN patients, while minor features are found only in some.

Genetics

XMEN disease is caused by loss of function mutations in the gene MAGT1.  MAGT1 is a 70 kb gene with 10 exons encoding for a 335 amino acid protein that maps to Xq21.1.   MagT1 is a component of the N-linked glycosylation machinery (oligosacchyrltransferase, OST), a fundamental component of all cells that regulates the attachment of sugar moieties onto specific sites in proteins.  Many of the immunodeficiency-related features of XMEN disease are related to the hypoglycosylation phenotype caused by loss of the OST component MagT1.

The conclusive connection between MAGT1, glycosylation, and Mg2+ import remains unknown.  A prominent hypothesis from XMEN patients suggests that MAGT1's role in glycosylation is essential to the function (either directly or indirectly) of a Mg+2 transporter.

MAGT1 is evolutionarily conserved and expressed in all mammalian cells with higher expression in hematopoietic lineages.  XMEN patients have been found to carry both MAGT1 deletions and missense mutations.  However, the severity of the phenotype is not entirely explained by the genotype.  The disease severity also likely depends on environmental and other genetic factors.

XMEN disease follows an X-linked inheritance pattern because the MAGT1 is located on the X chromosome. Mothers of XMEN patients exhibit preferential X chromosome inactivation of the chromosome with the mutation in their hematopoietic cells and are asymptomatic.

Diagnosis
XMEN patients generally have chronically high levels of EBV with increased EBV-infected cells, diminished thymic output of CD4+ cells, reduced CD4:CD8 ratio, moderately high B cell counts, and mild neutropenia.  Their neutropenia may be related to their chronic EBV.  Some patients also showed defective T cell proliferation in response to mitogen stimulation, variable immunoglobulin deficiencies, or deficient vaccination response.

Treatment
Once a diagnosis is made, each individual's treatment is based on an individual's clinical condition. Hematopoietic stem cell transplant is a possible treatment of this condition but its effectiveness is unproven and may be accompanied by severe and potentially fatal hemorrhage.

It was previously thought magnesium supplementation was a promising potential treatment for XMEN. One of the consequences of loss of MAGT1 function is a decreased level of unbound intracellular Mg2+. This decrease leads to loss of expression of an immune cell receptor called NKG2D, which is involved in EBV-immunity. Mg2+ supplementation in some tests restored NKG2D expression and other functions that are abnormal in patients with XMEN disease. Early evidence suggested continuous oral magnesium threonate supplementation was safe and well tolerated. A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study was conducted to evaluate the use of Mg2+ as a treatment for XMEN. In vitro magnesium supplementation experiments failed to significantly rescue NKG2D expression in patients with XMEN disease and the clinical trial was stopped. Therefore, magnesium supplementation is unlikely to be an effective therapeutic option in XMEN disease. Investigators at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases at the US National Institutes of Health currently have clinical protocols to study new approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of this disorder.

title: Jaguar XJR-17

text:
The Jaguar XJR-17 was an IMSA Lights racing car, built by Tom Walkinshaw Racing. Rebuilt from a Jaguar XJR-16 for the IMSA Camel Lights, the XJR-17 never competed in the event due to funding issues and has since only been used in a few minor British events and historic races. It used a modified version of the XJR-16's 3.5-litre V6 engine, stripped of the twin-turbochargers and producing a claimed output of , whilst its bodywork was cobbled together using various parts from older Jaguar XJR Sportscars.

Design and development
Andy Evans approached Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR) about the possibility of running a full-works IMSA GTP Jaguar sports prototype for the 1991 IMSA GT Championship season, but such a deal proved unworkable. However, as TWR were winding down their project, a deal was struck to instead strip down a Jaguar XJR-16 for use in the IMSA Camel Lights championship. David Fullerton designed the car, dubbed the XJR-17, whilst TWR SVO and Andy Morrison were the constructors. The XJR-16 chassis was stripped down to reduce cost and parts from various Jaguar XJR Sportscars were installed: the front wing came from the XJR-14, the rear wing came from one of the XJR-9, the gearbox casing was a mixture of XJR-11 tunnels and the XJR-16's bellhousing, and the nose was remodelled in the style of the XJR-14, as was the engine inlet. The engine was essentially the XJR-16's 3.5-litre V6, but with the twin-turbochargers removed; in this configuration, it produced a claimed .

Win Percy gave the XJR-17 its first shakedown at Enstone Airfield before a test session was held at Snetterton. However, the deal collapsed, and Hugh Chamberlain instead was to use the car as a Group C2 entrant in the 1992 24 Hours of Le Mans. Chamberlain, however, was also unable to get enough funding to compete, and the car, already prepared for the Le Mans qualifying session, was not used in the event. The XJR-17 eventually ended up in the hands of Brian Chatfield, who ran the car in a few minor races held at Castle Combe in 1993 and 1994, whilst racing driver John Grant used it in some races from 2003 until 2004.

title: Stockyard Hill Wind Farm

text:
Stockyard Hill Wind Farm is a wind farm project in Victoria (Australia). In May 2022 the project achieved its 5th hold point test, and was approved by the Australian Energy Market Operator and Network Services Provider to generate up to 400MW into the National Electricity Market. When it is fully commissioned, it is expected to produce up to 530MW, which would be Australia's largest wind farm.

The development was initiated by Windpower Australia and bought by Origin Energy. In May 2017, Origin sold the development to Goldwind Australia for  and signed a power purchase agreement to buy the electricity and Renewable Energy Certificates for less than /MWh.

The facility consists of 149 approved wind turbines at a site approximately 35km west of Ballarat between Beaufort and Skipton. The forecast cost is A$900 million (US$750 million)  In December 2009, the original plan for 242 turbines, the plan was changed to only have 157 turbines. The Victorian minister of planning approved the 157 turbines, in October 2010.

In 2013 Origin contemplated selling the project before production would have begun, but decided to continue the project.

Construction commenced in May 2018 on a design that has 149 wind turbines. The final turbine installation occurred in December 2020 and operations began in July 2021. The Goldwind 3S turbines have a capacity of 3.57 MW, with a hub height of 110 metres, tip height of 180 metres, and rotor diameter of 140 metres. The farm is projected to generate 1900 GWh of energy annually, at a corresponding capacity factor of about 40.9%. It will power approximately 425,000 homes annually. Origin Energy has a power purchase agreement to buy all electricity until 2030.

title: Breitenstein Castle

text:
The ruins of Breitenstein Castle () stand on a crag,  high, on the northern side of the Speyerbach valley in the  Palatine Forest in Germany. The castles is  east of the village of Elmstein in the county of Bad Dürkheim in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate.

History
The rock castle was probably built in 1246 by Pope Innocent IV during the  unrest over the excommunication of Frederick II. Not until 1257 was it mentioned in the records in connexion with a knight of Kropsberg, castellan of the Breitenstein and Dienstmann of the counts of Leiningen. The knight was named in 1265 as Burkhard of Breitenstein. In 1339 James of Flörsheim was appointed as Burgmann.

After the death of King Rudolph of Habsburg fighting broke out in 1291 between the Habsburgs and their opponents. At that time the counts of Sponheim built a siege castle just a few metres south of Breitenstein Castle. The two sites were separated from one another by a broad neck ditch. The siege castle was mentioned in 1340 as Lower Breitenstein (Nieder-Breitenstein). In that year, Count Walram of Sponheim was found guilty at the royal court in Munich of building a castle on the territory of the prince-bishopric of Speyer without permission and was to hand it over to the Speyer vassal (Lehnsmann), Friedrich Horneck. However, Count Palatine Rudolph II appealed against this decision and announced that the Sponheim lord was his vassal, so that he was allowed to retain the castle.

In 1357, a  Burgfrieden treaty was agreed that specified that the larger siege castle would henceforth become the inner ward, and the older, smaller building complex would become the outer ward.

After the castle was mentioned for the last time in 1382, it probably came into the possession of the counts of Leiningen and was likely destroyed in 1470–71 during a feud between its tenant family and the prince-elector, Frederick I – the so-called Electoral Palatine War.

After the ruins had been taken over in 1963 by the Rhineland-Palatinate State Castle Administration, conservation and safety measures were carried out on the walls in 1988 and 1989.

Site

The Late Hohenstaufen inner ward is built on a narrow rock base that, today, is only accessible to experienced climbers. The shield wall, made of rusticated ashlars on all sides, has survived almost to its full height. Seen from the uphill side its right-hand edge is sloping. The corbels of the chemin de ronde on the inside of the wall display Gothic elements. The attack side is guarded by a neck ditch hewn deep into the rock. Behind the shield wall rises a modest domestic building of which the enceinte has only partly survived. Access to the castle was not over the moat, but up a staircase hewn out of the rock on the south side. Around the crag is an almost rectangular lower ward, of which only a few wall remains can still be seen. On the other side of the neck ditch,  away and  higher, are the remains of a separate outer ward with its own moat.

title: David Richards (businessman)

text:
David James Richards  (born 13 November 1970) is a British Silicon Valley entrepreneur and technology executive. He is the co-founder of WANdisco, an Anglo-American software company specialising in distributed computing.

Biography
He was born in Sheffield, England in 1970, where his father worked in the steel industry. Graduating with a degree in computer science from the University of Huddersfield in 1992, he became an early member of the team at Druid Group.

In the mid-1990s, Richards formed a SAP consulting company, which he sold in the late 1998 and moved to Silicon Valley. Raising $25m from venture capital, he founded business software company Insevo before creating Librados, which was acquired by Netmanage in 2004.

WANdisco was incorporated in 2005 after a chance meeting between Richards and WANdisco chief scientist, Dr. Yeturu Aahlad. Richards recognized the potential of Aahlad's invention, and the two decided to create a company without the use of venture capital or angel investors.  In June 2012, the company was floated on the London Stock Exchange.

Philanthropy
In 2017, Richards and his wife Jane donated stock valued at $1.5 million to create the charitable David and Jane Richards Family Foundation to educate, empower and improve the lives of children.

Richards cited frustration at the UK Government's efforts to teach computing skills to schoolchildren and consequently a lack of adequate skills in a future economy where artificial intelligence and automation are prevalent.  He said "You can’t have all this money and hold on to it or buy a football team. There’s only so many houses you can live in. I think it’s better to do something good for the world."

During the COVID-19 pandemic Richards co-founded Laptops For Kids, a charitable organisation to facilitate the donation, secure erasure, and distribution of used digital devices, enabling children from disadvantaged backgrounds to have access to the technology they need to participate in remote learning. He said "nearly one in 10 children living in households with no access to a laptop, desktop or tablet computer, the shift towards remote learning during the pandemic has excluded up to 1.77m young people from active schooling. No access equals no education. I am not prepared to let this injustice go unchallenged."

Awards and honours
Richards was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2022 New Year Honours for services to the information technology sector and young people, particularly during Covid-19.

He was awarded an honorary doctorate from The University of Sheffield (2023) for giving distinguished service or bringing distinction to the University, the City of Sheffield, or the region.

He was awarded an honorary doctorate from Sheffield Hallam University (2017) in recognition of him being a champion of British technology and a passionate advocate of entrepreneurship.

Lisa Lage is an American rock climber who focused on competitive indoor rock climbing from 1997 to 2002.  She is a five time Youth National Champion and a member of the US Youth Climbing Team for six consecutive years.

Lage joined the Junior Competition Climbing Association (JCCA) and won at the Youth Nationals becoming National Champion in the 12- to 13-year-old girl's division.  That same year Lage attended the Youth Worlds and World Cup in Imst, Austria, but was unable to compete because she was too young.  Her father's US Air Force career moved her family to Pope Air Force Base, NC.  After another undefeated JCCA season, Lage took second place at the Youth Nationals for the 14- to 15-year-old girl's division.

Lage began assistant coaching, with Lesley Pearson, a youth climbing team at her local gym, The Climbing Place, NC  She also had the opportunity to give a climbing demo to the 6th, 7th, and 8th grade classes at Pierce Middle School in Pennsylvania. She was also the head route setter for an ASCF competition at The Climbing Place.

In 1999, Lage had  11 wins in the JCCA season, including the National Championship.  She ranked 26th place at the World Youth Championship in Courmayeur, Italy, after her foot slipped on the second preliminary climb.  In 2000 after an undefeated JCCA season, Lage becoming National Champion for the third time.  She placed 13th at the Youth Worlds in Amsterdam, Netherlands.  In 2001, Lage completed another undefeated JCCA season, winning both the National Championship and the Continental Championship. Lage also claimed a third-place finish at the European Youth Cup in Trieste, Italy.  She competed in Austria, France, Italy, Switzerland, and Slovenia on the Difficulty World Cup tour.

The 2002 season was Lage's final one.  As an undefeated National Champion, she took 5th for difficulty and 14th for speed at the Youth World Championship in Canteleu, France.  She completed a third Difficulty World Cup season, traveling to Russia, Singapore, Italy, and Austria.  Lage's overall world ranking for 2002 was 28th.  After the season finished, Lage decided to return to the United States to pursue her degree from Philadelphia Biblical University now Cairn University in Bible and Discipleship Counseling.  Her last name changed to Luedtke when she married in 2005.

An important event which affected the development of the media, is that in University of Pristina since 2005 is established the Journalism Faculty within the Faculty of Philology in which a large number of young people are registered.

Media in Pristina have followed all elections held in Kosova, especially a great impact was noted in Kosova local elections, 2013,where media dedicated most of their time in political debates, advertisements and political parties programs.

The freedom and pluralism of the media is guaranteed by the Constitution of Kosova. Censorship is forbidden, except in the cases of provocation of violence and discrimination. In according to organization Reporters without borders
in 2013 Kosova was ranked in the 85th place, after a year Kosova made progress and was ranked in the 80th place.

Newspapers

The first newspaper was "Rilindja" (Renaissance), which first came out on February 12, 1945 in Prizren, and was the first newspaper in Albanian inside Yugoslavia.  It was initially printed in the State Printing Shop in Prizren during the issues 1 to 60. Since issue 61, it was printed in Pristina Regional Printing House of the People's Front of Yugoslavia.

In the beginning, it had only four pages, being published weekly until June 27, 1948. After that it began to be published twice a week, on Sundays and Thursdays. Then, from November 1958, it started out as a daily paper (except on Fridays). By the year 1964, it appeared every day in a 20-page standard format, while on Saturdays and holidays in a 24-32 page format. On September 5, 1990, the Serbian government banned its publication. But with the entry of NATO forces, on June 12, 1999, it appeared again, but this time with additional pages and some of them in color.

It was undoubtedly one of the major sold newspapers in the Albanian sphere. Its maximum circulation was during New Year holidays, up to 234,000 copies. In 2002, the  newspaper premises were blocked by UNMIK administration, and was listed as property of Kosova Agency of Privatisation, shutting it down abruptly.
Nowadays  the two most popular newspapers are Koha Ditore and Kosova Sot. And in the absence of an official and impartial survey, both of them claim to be the most-read newspaper in Kosova. The newspapers use three systems of distribution, the most used system is Rilindja's system, but some newspapers, as Koha Ditore and Bota Sot, in their attempt to hide the correct information about readership, have developed their own systems of distribution.

title: Belarus–Ukraine border

text:
The Belarusian-Ukrainian border () is the state border between Belarus and Ukraine with a length of about . It starts from the triple junction with Poland  to the west and stretches to the triple junction with Russia  to the east. The tripoint border at the triple border junction of Belarus, Russia and Ukraine is marked in the form of a monument, while at the other border junction there is a river, the Western Bug that coincides with the border of Poland.

Geography
The border is situated in the Polesian Lowland, which stretches approximately from the Western Bug to the Dnieper along the Pripyat River.

The western end of the border starts at the Western Bug, around the area of the Shatsky Lakes, and runs eastward across the Pinsk Marshes. Further along, it stretches parallel to the south of the Pripyat River, passing densely wooded areas that were contaminated after the Chernobyl disaster. The border passes just to the north of Pripyat city and then turns southeast with the river and continues to run parallel to it. As the border reaches the Dnieper River, it turns north towards Homiel and runs along the river. At the midpoint between Homiel and Ripky, the border turns and again runs eastward towards the Central Russian Upland for about  where it terminates at the triple junction point with the Russian border.

History

The modern state of the border is dated to World War I, when the Ukrainian People's Republic appeared on the map of the world in 1918.

However, the border has historical roots. The border between the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Poland under the Union of Lublin was similar. It corresponded to the administrative border of Brest-Litovsk and Minsk voivodeship on the Lithuanian side and Kyiv Voivodeship, Volhynian, and Ruthenian voivodeships on the Polish side.

After World War I and the treaty of Riga, the western portion of the border roughly coincided with the administrative border of the Polesia and Volyn provinces of the interwar Polish Republic, and the eastern portion coincided with the border between the Soviet republics of Belarus and Ukraine.

At first, the border between both Soviet republics was recognised by the Treaty between the Ukrainian SSR and the Belarusian SSR from December 12, 1990.

The status of the state border with Ukraine was given by the Supreme Soviet of Belarus of 11 June 1993, but there is an international agreement between Belarus and Ukraine, in which they mutually recognise the border BSSR and USSR recognised in 1990.

To date, the border is governed by the Agreement between Belarus and Ukraine on friendship, good neighbourliness and cooperation of 17 June 1995, the Treaty on the State Border between Belarus and Ukraine on 12 May 1997 in the same year was ratified by the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, and in 2010 the National Assembly of Belarus, but the parties still have not exchanged instruments of ratification.

According to Chairman of the State Border Committee of Belarus, Igor Raczkowski, work on border demarcation may continue for up to 10 years and require 51 billion rubelss.

Demarcation of the border began with the 13 November 2013 inauguration of the first border sign at the place where the borders of Ukraine, Belarus and Russia meet.

Following the Chernobyl disaster in 1986, a big portion of the Ukrainian side of the border lies with the so-called Chernobyl Exclusion Zone and Polesie State Radioecological Reserve (Belarusian side). The Chernobyl Exclusion Zone in Ukraine is governed by the Ministry of Ecology and Natural Resources through its special agency. The area does not have adequate infrastructure for border crossing, which is conducted in the area under special authority due to contamination. The exclusion zone has its own checkpoints. The Chernihiv–Ovruch railway runs along the border on the Ukrainian side, connecting the abandoned Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant with the city of Slavutych. The tracks cross the border twice.

On 24 February 2022, during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Russian troops began moving across the border from Belarus into Ukraine as a part of the Kyiv offensive. On 3 April 2022 Ukrainian troops took back control of sections of the border near Pripyat (they had lost control of due to the Russian invasion). The day before the whole of Kyiv Oblast, which is located on the Belarus–Ukraine border, was declared free of invaders by the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense after Russian troops had left the area. On 4 and 5 April 2022 units of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine retook control of their border crossing in Chernihiv Oblast.

On 11 November, it was reported that Ukraine had begun construction of a wall on the border with Belarus.

After the June 2023 Wagner Group rebellion, after which the Wagner Group was slated to move to Belarus, the border again became a topic of discussion. On 30 June 2023, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy approved plans for further reinforcements of the border, although they acknowledged that they did not find any current threats.

title: Clan Russell

text:
Clan Russell is a Scottish armigerous clan, with claimed origins in Normandy. It has ancestral ties to the English Dukes of Bedford, and has numerous descendants in Great Britain and America.

History

Origins of the clan

Scottish author George F Black believed the surname Russell may be derived from roux which means red. Other writers claim it to be derived from the Norman place name de Rosel. The name Rufus was commonly found among the Anglo-Normans (from Le Roux a nickname for someone with red hair). Between 1164 and 1177 Walter Russel witnessed a charter in favour of Paisley Abbey. Mentioned in a charter of about 1180 is John, son of Robert Russell of Duncanlaw. In 1259 Robert Russell witnessed a deed relating to the lands of Threipland.

Wars of Scottish Independence

In 1296 Robert Russell appears on the Ragman Rolls giving homage to Edward I of England. Historian William Anderson stated that the name of Russell came to Aberdeenshire with one Rozel who was an English baron who fought at the siege of Berwick and the Battle of Halidon Hill in 1333. Rozel subsequently settled in Scotland and obtained the estate of Aden. His family was styled 'Russell of that Ilk'.

17th, 18th and 19th centuries

Patrick Russell was married to a sister of Archbishop Sharp and in 1680 he purchased the lands of Moncoffer in Banffshire. From him descend the Scottish Barons of Aden, Aberdeenshire.

The Russell of Ashiesteel family in Selkirkshire were particularly distinguished in military service. Between 1756 and 1767 Colonel William Russel of Ashiesteel was adjutant general of the army of Madras and served under General Lord Clive. His son was Major General Sir James Russel who also served in India and commanded a brigade of cavalry at the Battle of Mahidpur.

Alexander Russell was an eminent doctor and naturalist and in 1756 published a Natural History of Aleppo.

In England, another family, the descendants of Rufus became Dukes of Bedford. The third son of the sixth Duke was John Russell who studied at the University of Edinburgh where he greatly admired the independent and democratic philosophy of the Scots. In politics he was the architect of the first Reform Act 1832 and served as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. He was created Earl Russell in 1861. His grandson was Bertrand Russell who was one of the great philosophers of the twentieth century.

Coats of Arms

Castles

Ashiesteel House, three miles west of Galashiels in the Scottish Borders is a mansion that incorporates a tower house dating from the seventeenth century. It was owned by the Russles but was later home to Sir Walter Scott who wrote several of his works there.
Banff Castle, east of Banff, Aberdeenshire was originally owned by the Clan Comyn but later passed to the Sharps and then the Russells. Little remains of the original castle and a Robert Adam mansion was built there in the eighteenth century.
Montcoffer House, two miles south of Banff, is a mansion dating from 1670. The Russels sold it to the Duff Duke of Fife in 1750. It was remodelled in 1825.
Aden House, a mansion ten miles west of Peterhead in Aberdeenshire, is now a ruinous shell that dates from 1832. The present building had replaced an old castle. The Russells sold the house and most of the estate it in 1937. It is said to be haunted by the ghost of one of the daughters of one of the owners.
Blackhall Castle, was two miles west of Banchory in Aberdeenshire and was a strong castle but nothing now remains. It was held by the Russells and then by the Clan Hay.

title: Schneider Grunau 8

text:
The Schneider Grunau 8 was a simple, two-seat trainer glider designed and built in Germany in the early 1930s.

Design and development

The Grunau 8, designed by Wolf Hirth and Edmund Schneider, was a wood and fabric tandem two-seat training glider with a strut-braced high wing, swept back at 5° and with 1.5° of dihedral, built around two raked spars. It was fabric covered apart from a plywood-skinned leading edge.   Constant-chord inner sections occupied some 40% of the span, braced from the spars near the panel ends to the lower fuselage longerons by two parallel lift struts. The forward pair of these struts was streamlined and had near vertical jury struts.  The outboard panels were straight tapered to rounded wing tips, the aft spar running straight from the wing root to tip and mounting slightly tapered ailerons.

The fuselage of the Grunau 8 had a deep-sided hexagonal cross section with a rounded nose and a continuous open, tandem cockpit with the rear seat under the wing, well behind its leading edge.  The wing was supported over the cockpits by six struts, two inverted Vs from the upper longerons to the spars and a pair of cross-bracing diagonals. Behind the rear spar the wing root merged into the upper rear fuselage which tapered aft to a rectangular rear section. An isosceles trapezium shaped tailplane was mounted on top of the fuselage and braced to the short fin. The flat-topped balanced rudder was taller than the fin, together forming a straight-tapered vertical tail with the rudder reaching down to the keel via an elevator cut-out. A sprung skid reached from the nose to under mid-chord with a pair of fixed wheels on a short axle above it towards its rear end, though the Grunau 8 sometimes flew without them. There was also a small tailskid.

The sole Grunau 8 first flew sometime between 1933 and 1935 after Schneider's designation system had changed; the Schneider Grunau 7 Moazagotl flew in 1933 and the Grunau 8 appears in Vogelsang's book, published in 1935.  Capable of being launched by aero-tow, the Grunau 8 initially carried the name Stella on its nose and wings.
