title: Tadeusz Anders

text:
Tadeusz Konstanty Anders served as a captain artillery officer in the Polish Army during the Interbellum Period, and as a podpułkownik (lt. col) in the Polish Armed Forces during World War II. He was awarded the Virtuti Militari V Class, Poland's highest military decoration for heroism and courage in the face of the enemy at war.

Biography

Early life

Tadeusz Anders was born on June 7, 1902, in the village Błonie, Kingdom of Poland, located approximately one kilometer north of Krośniewice. Tadeusz was the third and youngest son of Albert Anders, a German Balt and Elżbieta Anders née Tauchert, and the brother of Władysław and Karol. The Anders family was of German descent and Evangelical faith; Albert Anders' ancestors had settled in Poland in the first half of the 18th Century.

Military career

By the age of 16, Tadeusz Anders joined the Polish Military Organisation and served in the vicinity of Mińsk Litewski in 1918. From September 1919, he was stationed in Modlin as part of the II Cadet Corpus. With the onset of the Polish–Soviet War, Anders served in the 15th Poznań Uhlans Regiment, only to be transferred to Silesia in May 1921 to participate in the Third Silesian Uprising.

Upon completion of his Matura on June 25, 1922, Anders entered the Field Artillery Officers' School in Toruń. On July 1, 1923, he advanced to the rank of podporucznik (the equivalent of Junior Lieutenant) while being assigned to the 29th Light Artillery Regiment. Two years later on July 1, 1925, he was promoted to porucznik (Lieutenant).

After his promotion in 1925, Anders was transferred to the 11th Mounted Artillery Division. From 1931 to 1934, he served as an instructor in the Reserve Officers' Cadet School in Włodzimierz Wołyński. On January 1, 1934, he was promoted to captain. Afterwards, he was transferred to Suwałki, where he served as an adjutant in the 4th Mounted Artillery Division.

World War II

Anders remained at the 4th Mounted Artillery Division in Suwałki until the beginning of the September Campaign, where the 4th Mounted Artillery Division was incorporated in situ into the Cavalry Brigade "Edward". Apart from the 4th Mounted Artillery Division, Cavalry Brigade "Edward" also consisted of the 3rd Masovian Light Cavalry Regiment, the 3rd Mounted Infantry Regiment, and the 1st Uhlan Regiment, which was commanded by Tadeusz's older brother, Karol Anders, who then held the rank of podpułkownik (Lieutenant Colonel). The brigade was tasked with the protection of the defensive corridor formed between the Suwałki and Lublin regions. During the September Campaign, the brigade retreated south to protect the Romanian Bridgehead. Both Anders brothers, along with the rest of brigade, participated in the Battle of Kock.

At the conclusion of the September Campaign, Tadeusz Anders evaded capture. He made his way to France and joined Sikorski's Army. Next, he made his way to the II Polish Corps, which was led by his eldest brother, Władysław. There, Tadeusz was appointed commander of the 7th Mounted Artillery Regiment. In December 1944, the 7th Mounted Artillery Regiment was regrouped into the 7th Self-Propelled Artillery Regiment and he was appointed commander of the new regiment. While serving in the 7th Self-Propelled Artillery Regiment, Anders was promoted first to major, and then to podpułkownik (Lieutenant Colonel).

By the end of World War II, the II Polish Corps was transferred to Great Britain. Shortly thereafter, Anders emigrated to the United States. He died on July 7, 1995, in New York City. He was laid to rest at the National Shrine of Our Lady of Czestochowa, located near Doylestown, Pennsylvania. His tomb can be found at the cemetery dedicated to the Polish Veterans of World War II.

Family
His brothers were Karol Anders and Lt. General Władysław Anders, the latter being the commander of the Polish II Corps.

title: Your Mom's House

text:
Your Mom's House is a comedy podcast hosted by married comedians Tom Segura and Christina Pazsitzky. The podcast was started in 2010 and covers a wide range of topics such as ongoing events, comedy, and the daily life of the two co-hosts—interspersed with toilet humor, running jokes, and commentary on unusual or shocking internet videos. The comedians typically stay away from political discussions, and the majority of their guests are fellow comedians. Additionally YMH Studios produces a number of podcasts on their network, including “2 Bears 1 Cave,” “Dr. Drew After Dark,”  and “The Danny Brown Show.” Starting in 2020, YMH studios began producing live pay-per-view events that can be rented on their website.

History
Segura and Pazsitzky originally started the podcast through the Deathsquad Network, and produced by Brian Redban. Segura and Pazsitzky mentioned in a 2014 Vice article that Joe Rogan had encouraged them to start a podcast. After 40 episodes they started producing the show themselves with the help of producer Nadav Itzkowitz.

In 2012, Your Mom's House was chosen as a finalist in the Best Comedy category at the first annual Stitcher Awards, along with Smodcast, The Adam Carolla Show, The Joe Rogan Experience, The Nerdist, and WTF with Marc Maron.

YMH Studios has also produced a number of other podcasts, including 2 Bears 1 Cave (hosted by Segura and Bert Kreischer), Dr. Drew After Dark (hosted by Drew Pinsky), Where My Mom's At (hosted by Christina Pazsitzky), The Danny Brown Show (hosted by Danny Brown), Tom Segura en Español (a Spanish podcast hosted by Segura), and Tom Talks (a solo, interview driven podcast with Segura). The HoneyDew (hosted by Ryan Sickler) was previously produced at YMH Studios before separating in summer 2020. Beginning in fall of 2020 the studio began the new podcast Roach Motel (hosted by Josh Potter), however this show was quickly re-named The Josh Potter Show after only seven episodes due to a copyright dispute. In January 2023 Segura and Pazsitzky announced a new show on YMH Studios' network hosted by Rob Iler and Jamie-Lynn Sigler of The Sopranos and the Pajama Pants podcast. The newest addition is "First Date" hosted by Lauren Compton.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, YMH Studios began producing live, pay-per-view shows beginning with Your Mom's House Live & Uncensored on August 14, 2020. As of 2022 the studio has produced three live shows for 2 Bears 1 Cave (including a Big Game event with NFL Hall of Famer Warren Sapp), and nine for Your Mom's House. In late 2021, YMH Studios moved from Los Angeles, to Austin, Texas.

Guests
Episodes often feature prominent guests from the world of entertainment and pop culture, notably fellow stand-up comedians such as Bert Kreischer, Joe Rogan, Andrew Santino, Tom Papa, Josh Wolf, Chad Daniels, Matteo Lane, Stavros Halkias, Robert Kelly, Louis CK, Bobby Lee, Andrew Schulz, Ari Shaffir and Adam Friedland. Johnny Pemberton had made multiple appearances and regularly contributes graphics to the show.

The show has branched out to non-comedian guests including musical artists like Big Daddy Kane, Brendon Urie, and Too Short; actors including Rob Iler, Jamie-Lynn Sigler, Alyssa Milano, and Elizabeth Lail; celebrity personalities like Cesar Millan and Rhett & Link, and adult actresses Alexis Fawx and Kate Kennedy. In late 2022, director Kevin Smith appeared as a guest, where he defended posting photos of his reaction to Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

2 Bears 1 Cave has had guest hosts due to either Kreischer touring, or when Segura was injured in a basketball dunking challenge. Guest hosts include YMH team members Christina P and Dr. Drew, comedians Ryan Sickler, Tim Dillon, Whitney Cummings, Bobby Lee, and LeeAnn Kreischer. In November 2022 Quentin Tarantino guest hosted with Segura, where he criticized the Marvel Cinematic Universe for overshadowing movie stars.

Fandom
The show's format mostly consists of Segura and Pazsitzky talking about and commenting on various videos and clips which are acquired through YouTube, TikTok, fan submission, etc. Through this format, the hosts and the fans of the show commonly use quotes to create a lingo which is used throughout the podcast. Some common phrases from the show include: "high and tight", "cool guy", "cool guy club", "try it out", "good morning, Julia", "full throttle", and "ta ta there, retard". Along with these quotations, Pazsitzky and Segura occasionally refer to each other as "Jeans" which stemmed from calling each other "mommy" and "mom jeans", and they refer to fans of the show as "mommies" as a reference to the title of the show. It is common for fans of the show to use this lingo when referring to the show on social media.

Starting in 2019, fans of the show commonly posted comments on the Instagram page of singer/songwriter Garth Brooks, which was referred to as the "Garth Brooks Instagram Takeover", leading to a restriction of Segura's comments on Garth's Instagram page. The comments used the lingo of the show and commonly asked Brooks questions about where he was keeping the bodies. This line of questioning originated from Segura jokingly calling the singer "insane" and a "serial killer" in numerous episodes.

During a 2022 episode of 2 Bears 1 Cave with guest host Joe Rogan, Segura made jokes at the expense of Erie, Pennsylvania. Erie weatherman David Wolter made jokes regarding Segura not being in the top 100 sexiest bald men awards on a local news show, resulting in fans targeting Wolter's social media. Segura challenged Wolter to a one-on-one game of basketball, which Wolter accepted. Segura won this match resulting in Wolter having to release an apology video to Segura. Segura also made a donation to a charitable foundation of Wolter's selection, and encouraged others to do so.

Most episodes feature original music from fans that often incorporate samples from the videos played on the show.

title: The Rhinitis Revelation

text:
"The Rhinitis Revelation" is the sixth episode of the fifth season of the US sitcom The Big Bang Theory and the 93rd episode of the show overall. It first aired on CBS on October 20, 2011.

Plot
Sheldon's mother, Mary Cooper, is going on a Christian cruise called the "Born Again Boat Ride". Before the cruise, she has a weekend in Pasadena and visits Sheldon. However, he is upset when she does not do anything on his itinerary. Instead of his mother making fried chicken and making pecan pie, they go out to a restaurant for sushi; when doing laundry with Sheldon, Mary is distracted by Penny and leaves. The following day, Mary rejects a Saul Perlmutter lecture to go sight-seeing and even leads the rest of the gang to a Roman Catholic church for a prayer session. After she makes a short prayer about Sheldon, Penny prays for her brother to stop cooking meth, Leonard's prayer relates to his relationship with Priya and Raj, despite being a Hindu, prays that he can lose weight. Howard does not pray as he is a Jew.

Sheldon denies to Amy that he is in a bad mood because of his mother neglecting him. Amy tells Sheldon that he experiences emotions like everyone else. Later, when sitting next to a stranger in the rain, Sheldon makes a soliloquy about them being very similar, despite his intelligence. He gets a cold from the rain and his mother takes care of him, putting VapoRub on his chest and singing "Soft Kitty", though she urges him to act more mature as he is no longer a child.

Production
A week before the episode aired, a brief plot description was put on Twitter, revealing that Sheldon's mother would be appearing again.

Reviews
Jenna Busch from IGN rated the episode 8 out of 10, noting that "political correctness in comedy is sort of a divisive issue". Busch enjoyed Mary "spouting groaner lines" and compared her to Pierce Hawthorne from Community, saying "the funny thing about [Pierce] is how offensive he is."

Oliver Sava of The A.V. Club gave the episode a B, saying that "this episode's biggest failing is not having Amy and Mary share a scene".

The episode was rated 42 out of 100 by the TV critic; it was said to be "dull" and "stasis", with Mary's insistence on the gang praying described as "inappropriate". According to the critic, the political incorrectness from Mary was "predictable and basic" and although "Sheldon's refusal to change did feel believable", it was "a bit of a waste of time".

title: Cal Hawk

text:
William Clarence "Cal" Hawk (October 20, 1847 – December 16, 1899) was an American professional baseball player in the 1870s.  He played as a pitcher for the Oil City Senecas, the New Castle Neshannocks and the Bradford team.  In 1873, he became the first pitcher to receive a stated salary, being paid $62 per month.  He has been called "the first real professional hurler the game ever had."  In 1899, the Sporting Life reported that he was "one of the first twirlers to pitch a curve ball, which in his time was considered a wonderful feat."

Hawk retired from professional baseball in 1877, though he continued to participate in games at Freeport, Pennsylvania.  Hawk was employed by Guckenheimer & Bros. distillery in Freeeport after retiring from baseball.  While at work, he fell on his head onto a cement floor from a height of approximately 12 feet.  The concussion from the fall led to traumatic meningitis, and Hawk died at his home in Freeport, Pennsylvania, in December 1899 at age 52. He was buried at the Freeport Cemetery.

Tony Sanchez, also known as Spanish Tony (died 2000), was a British photographer of Spanish ancestry. He worked as Keith Richards' assistant for eight years and co-wrote with John Blake a bestselling memoir about this time, entitled Up and Down with the Rolling Stones: My Rollercoaster Ride with Keith Richards (1979).

Sanchez was the son of Spanish immigrants, and his father ran an Italian restaurant in London's Mayfair.

Sanchez met the Rolling Stones through his connection with the art dealer Robert Fraser. According to Keith Richards, Sanchez, who had been a croupier and bouncer, was able to help Fraser when he was in trouble with gambling debts, and became Fraser's drug dealer and general helper.

Sanchez was one of the Rolling Stones' two official photographers, along with Michael Cooper for The Stones in the Park free outdoor festival held in London's Hyde Park on 5 July 1969.

Tony Sanchez died in 2000.

title: Joe Z. Tsien

text:
Joe Z. Tsien（钱卓） is a neuroscientist who pioneered Cre/lox-neurogenetics in the mid-1990s, a versatile toolbox for neuroscientists to study the complex relationships between genes, neural circuits, and behaviors. He is also known as the creator of the smart mouse Doogie in the late 1990s while being a faculty member at Princeton University. Recently, he developed the Theory of Connectivity in an effort to explain the origin of intelligence, or the basic design principle underlying brain computation and intelligence. The theory states that brain computation is organized by a power-of-two-based permutation logic in constructing cell assemblies - the basic building blocks of neural circuits. The theory has received initial validation from experiments. The discovery of this basic computational logic of the brain can have important implications for the development of artificial general intelligence.

Education
Tsien earned his A.B. in Biology/Physiology from East China Normal University in Shanghai (1984). Tsien obtained his Ph.D. in Molecular Biology from the University of Minnesota in 1990.

Career
In the early and mid-1990s, Tsien worked with two Nobel laureates, Eric Kandel and Susumu Tonegawa. In 1997, Tsien became a faculty member in the Department of Molecular Biology at Princeton University, where he genetically engineered and created Doogie, a smart mouse. In 2007, Tsien launched the Brain Decoding Project under which he has led a team of neuroscientists, computer scientists and mathematicians to record and decipher systematically the neural codes in the mouse brain, with funding supported in part by Georgia Research Alliance. Tsien's Brain Decoding Project has provided a valuable test case and inspiration for other neuroscientists in Europe and the United States to initiate large-scale projects such as the BRAIN Initiative and Human BRAIN Projects in 2013.

Tsien is currently working in China and continues to serve as the director of the International Brain Decoding Project Consortium.

Research
Tsien pioneered Cre-loxP-mediated brain subregion- and cell type-specific genetic techniques in 1996, enabling researchers to manipulate or introduce any gene in a specific brain region or a given type of neuron. This transformative technique has led to NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research in launching several Cre-driver Mouse Resource projects. Over the past 20 years, Cre-lox recombination-mediated neurogenetics has emerged as one of the most powerful and versatile technology platforms for cell-specific gene knockouts, transgenic overexpression, neural circuit tracing, Brainbow, optogenetics, CLARITY, voltage imaging and chemical genetics.

Tsien is also widely known as the creator of the smart mouse Doogie. While as a faculty at Princeton University, Tsien has speculated that one of the NMDA receptor's subunits may hold the key for superior learning and memory at young ages. Accordingly, his laboratory genetically engineered a transgenic mouse in which they over-expressed the NR2B subunit of the NMDA receptor in the mouse cortex and hippocampus. In 1999, his team reported that the transgenic mouse, nicknamed Doogie, indeed showed to have enhanced synaptic plasticity and enhanced learning and retention, as well as greater flexibility in learning new patterns. The discovery of the NR2B as a key genetic factor for memory enhancement prompted other researchers to discover over two dozen other genes for memory enhancement, many of which regulate the NR2B pathway. One of the NR2B-based memory-enhancement strategies, via dietary supplements of a brain-penetrating magnesium ion, magnesium L-threonate, is currently undergoing clinical trials for memory improvement.

Tsien has also made several other major discoveries, including the unified cell-assembly mechanism for explaining how episodic memory and semantic memory are generated in the memory circuits. His laboratory also discovered the nest cells in the mouse brain, revealing how animals recognize the abstract concept of nest or home.

Tsien is also the first to show that defective Alzheimer's genes (e.g. presenilin-1) impaired adult neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus, revealing the role of adult neurogenesis in memory clearance.

In addition, Tsien has developed a method capable of selectively erasing a memory of choice, such as a particular fear memory, in the mouse brain.

Tsien also demonstrated that the NMDA receptor in the dopamine circuit plays a crucial role in the formation of habit.

Tsien is currently leading a team of neuroscientists, computer scientists and mathematicians, who are working on the Brain Decoding Project, a large-scale brain activity mapping effort, which he and his colleagues have initiated since 2007 with the support from the Georgia Research Alliance (GRA).

In 2015, Tsien developed the Theory of Connectivity to explain the design principle upon which evolution and development may construct the brain to be capable of generating intelligence. This theory has made six predictions which have received supportive evidence by a recent set of experiments on both the mouse brain and hamster brain. At its core, the Theory of Connectivity predicts that the cell assemblies in the brain are not random, rather they should conform to the power-of-two-based equation, N = 2i - 1, to form the pre-configured building block termed as the functional connectivity motif (FCM). Instead of using a single neuron as the computational unit in some extremely simple brains, the theory denotes that in most brains, a group of neurons exhibiting similar tuning properties, termed as a neural clique, should serve as the basic computing processing unit (CPU). Defined by the power-of-two-based equation, N = 2i - 1, each FCM consists of principal-projection neuron cliques (N), ranging from those specific cliques receiving specific information inputs (i) to those general and sub-general cliques receiving various combinatorial convergent inputs. As the evolutionarily conserved logic, its validation requires experimental demonstrations of the following three major properties: 1) Anatomical prevalence - FCMs are prevalent across neural circuits, regardless of gross anatomical shapes; 2) Species conservancy - FCMs are conserved across different animal species; and 3) Cognitive universality - FCMs serve as a universal computational logic at the cell-assembly level for processing a variety of cognitive experiences and flexible behaviors. More importantly, this Theory of Connectivity further predicts that the specific-to-general combinatorial connectivity pattern within FCMs should be pre-configured by evolution, and emerge innately from development as the brain's computational primitives. This proposed design principle can also explain the general purpose and computational algorithm of the neocortex. This proposed design principle of intelligence can be examined via various experiments and also be modeled by neuromorphic engineers and computer scientists. The same power-of-two-based permutation logic has recently been described for lexical retrieval processes in humans, which shows parallels to the computing base of the quantum computer. However, Dr. Joe Tsien cautions that artificial general intelligence based on the brain's principles can come with great benefits and, potentially, even greater risks.

Recognition
Tsien has received awards for his research contributions, including:
 2012 Distinguished Scientist Award from the International Behavioral and Neural Genetics Society
 Keck Distinguished Young Scholar Award
 Burroughs Wellcome Young Investigator Award
 Scientific Achievement Award from the Association of Chinese Americans
 Beckman Young Investigator Award

Popular science
Tsien has contributed articles to Scientific American in the areas of neuroscience of memory enhancement and memory decoding. He has written chapters on learning and memory for several popular textbooks.

Historiography
According to the Song dynasty book, Tongzhi, the Qian surname (Tsien；钱) descends from one of the legendary Five Emperors (Zhuanxu, mythological emperor of ancient China, Shang dynasty, Chinese: 商朝). Emperor Zhuanxu (Chinese: trad. 顓頊, simp. 颛顼, pinyin Zhuānxū), also known as Gaoyang (t 高陽, s 高阳, p Gāoyáng) who was the grandson of the first Chinese Emperor known as Yellow Emperor, ruled the Yellow River valley, the origin of China, in the second millennium BC from 2514 BC – 2436 BC (Early Bronze Age). During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period (907-960), King Qian Liu and his descendants ruled the independent kingdom of Wuyue in south-eastern China, covering Shanghai, Jiangsu province, Zhejiang Province, and Fujian Province and regions. Joe Tsien was born in 1962 in Wuxi and is the 36th generation of King Qian Liu descendants.

title: Manuel Sánchez Cuesta

text:
Manuel Sánchez Cuesta (born May 13, 1952, in San Martín del Castañar, Salamanca) is philosopher, ethicist and humanist.

He studied in the University of Salamanca, Complutense University of Madrid, Heidelberg University and the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas in Rome. He is Philosophical Doctor. Since 1991 he is professor of ethics in the Complutense University of Madrid. He has also taught logic at the same university, Spanish literature and Spanish history of philosophy at the Heidelberg University as well as ethics at the Pontifical Catholic University of Puerto Rico.
Amongst other publications, he has regularly written about ethics and politics in the newspaper Diario 16, the paper Acontecimiento, as well as about history of philosophy in the weekly magazine El Médico.

Intellectual profile
His areas of research have focussed on the subjects of logic, history of philosophy and, in particular, ethics.
In the existential-personalistic humanism of Sánchez Cuesta

the everyday stands in the center of his ethical reflection.
It is in the everyday, in fact, where the time of each human being is transmuted into an indefinite number of possibilities that are permanently open him or her. In consequence, the person can not only be able to trace the goal that it aspires, but also provide it with a substantiating virtuous character. "Whoever succeeds - writes Agapito Maestre (translated) - to live his daily life morally, and this and no other is the therapeutic value of this work [Note: that of Sánchez Cuesta], will have managed to make the carpe diem of the classics [Note: philosophers] come true."

The following applies to the writings of Professor Sánchez Cuesta in general. As one of his books´ review [The ethics of the Greeks (translated) or, La ética de los griegos (original title)] by Professor José Miguel Marinas summarizes: "And here is undoubtedly the main attraction of an elegant work with apparently simple looks: is the text of a free man, which is aimed at adult readers"

title: Secondary Education for All

text:
Secondary Education for All is a 1922 book written by the historian and education theorist R. H. Tawney. It was written as a key policy statement for the rising Labour Party.

Content
The work analysed the provision of education at secondary level in the UK in the early 1920s and made recommendations for changes of governmental policy, specifically to administer the creation of a universal and free system of secondary education. One of the most pressing concerns in the work was the attempt to transform existing class relationships in an educational context; Tawney wished to see the elimination of the "vulgar irrelevancies of class inequality". It was written only a few years after the passage of the Education Act (1918) which had been engaged with by Tawney in his role as a key member of the Labour party's educational committee (alongside other figures such as Percy Nunn). Tawney's work was based on abstract and ideological considerations but also empirical case studies such as the extension of secondary education in Bradford and Birmingham.

Tawney also propounded the need for a variety of secondary schools based on local circumstances, but was adamant that variety should not involve the perpetuation of class distinctions and inequities.

Legacy and influence
The document foreshadowed Tawney's later work on the Hadow Report; his work on that as well as Secondary Education for All, particularly in terms of the espousal of a universal system of secondary education, was deeply influential in the provisions of the 1944 Education Act and the extension of the compulsory school leaving age to 15 in 1947. The work was not intended to lead to instantaneous changes, since it suggested that such transformations would be undertaken over the course of 'a generation'.

The legacy of the work is remarkable given the widespread feeling that it was not practical or desirable among a wide number of groups, particularly businessmen and employers, who considered the idea of universal secondary education to be both expensive and not necessarily successful or productive. Although in retrospect such a proposal may seem obvious, at the time it was not: in 1921, for instance, merely one in eleven (just above 9%) of all those aged over 11 and under 15 went to secondary schools in some form.

title: Pieter de Jong

text:
Pieter de Jong (c.1610 – after 1639), was a Dutch Golden Age member of the Haarlem schutterij.

Biography
He is only known from his portrait painted by Frans Hals in his schutterstuk called The Officers of the St George Militia Company in 1639. The portrait is possibly not of him but of someone called Mr. Johan van Wallenburg or "van Brienen". He is portrayed standing next to Hals himself as a sergeant of the white brigade, because he is wearing a white sash and holding a sergeant's halberd.

He is possibly the Pieter de Jong mentioned as the brother of the "former mayor Houff" in the archive document relating to the testament of Florens van der Houff, who is also portrayed in the same painting.

title: Cheddy Thompson

text:
Cyril L. "Cheddy" Thompson (July 4, 1915 – August 26, 1972) was a Canadian ice hockey coach. He was the head coach of Colorado College after World War II during their most successful era and led the team to their first national title in 1950.

Career
Cheddy Thompson attended Gonzaga University during the period when the Bulldogs supported an ice hockey program, playing for the team from 1939–1941. After graduating Thompson joined the military during the Second World War and was assigned to 2nd Air Force HQ in Colorado Springs. With the war winding down Colorado College was among a number of schools who restarted (or began) Division I programs with theirs rekindling in the 1944–45 season. With the war over by the start of the next season, and Colorado College in need of a full-time coach, Thompson was chosen to head the program.

Thompson's first season finished disappointingly with a 3–8 mark, but he soon got the Tigers on track with a then-school record 14 wins the next season. The following year (1947–48) the NCAA began holding a tournament to determine the ice hockey National Champion. With a 19–7 record, Thompson's Tigers were one of four teams invited to participate, facing off against Dartmouth and losing the semifinal 8–4. With a 14–6–1 mark the next season Colorado College returned to the national tournament (along with all three others from the previous year) and were defeated twice, first by Boston College in the semifinal (7–3) and then by Michigan in the first consolation game (10–4).

The 1949–50 season saw more of the same during the regular season with the Tigers finishing 16–5–1 and heading to their third consecutive tournament (along with Michigan and BC) but were finally able to win their first playoff game by avenging last year's loss to Boston College, winning 10–3 in the semifinal. In the final against Boston University the Terriers jumped out to an early lead, ending the first period ahead 1–0 but once the second frame began the Tigers took over the game, scoring 3 goals in the middle period and scoring a still-NCAA record 10 goals in the third to win 13–4. Despite the 23 goals scored in two games, Ralph Bevins of Boston University was chosen as the Tournament Most Outstanding Player.

Thompson got the Tigers back to the tournament in each of the next two seasons, going 1–3 in the championship, with 1951–52 seeing a major change as the Tigers became a founding member of the MCHL (a predecessor to the WCHA) and won the conference title the first season. Thompson received the Spencer Penrose Award the same year from the American Collegiate Hockey Association. The Tigers missed the tournament for two consecutive years before returning in 1955. While the Tigers dropped the title tilt to rival Michigan, a bigger loss came after the season when Thompson resigned as head coach.

Honors
While a fan favorite in Colorado Springs, Thompson wouldn't receive many accolades for his work until after his death in 1972, being inducted into the Colorado Springs Sports Hall of Fame in 2000 and the Colorado College Athletic Hall of Fame twice: first as a member of the 1950 championship team in 1998 and then for his coaching career in 2013.

title: Battle of Zhvanets

text:
The Battle of Zhvanets, or the siege of Zhvanets () was one of battles of the Khmelnytsky Uprising. It took place between late August and mid-December 1653, when forces of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, together with King Jan Kazimierz Waza were surrounded in and near Zhvanets by Zaporozhian Cossacks and Crimean Tatars, commanded Bohdan Khmelnytsky. The siege ended when Poles agreed to renew the Treaty of Zboriv.

Background
Despite poor quality of Polish soldiers and their officers, as cream of the Polish Army had been murdered in the Batih massacre (June 1652), the spring offensive of 1653 progressed successfully. The situation changed when Khmelnytsky’s Cossacks joined forces with Tatars commanded personally by Islam III Giray. When news of this reached King Jan Kazimierz Waza, he decided to abandon his positions in Bar, Ukraine, and head towards Zhvanets, to await Moldavian and Transilvanian reinforcements.

Polish forces camped at the confluence of the  and the Dniestr rivers, building a pontoon bridge over the Dniester, to keep in touch with Bucovina. The reinforcements were inadequate: George II Rakoczi sent 2000 soldiers, while Gheorghe Stefan, only 1000.

The siege
Bohdan Khmelnytsky decided not to make a frontal attack of the Polish camp. Instead, he chose a long-lasting siege, which began in late August 1653, and dragged on throughout autumn into December. As time went by and the weather worsened, Polish defenders began to starve, and a number of soldiers fled their positions in search of food. The situation was anxiously observed by Khan Islam III Giray, who did not wish for complete destruction of Polish forces, as this would eventually strengthen the Cossacks, who, despite the temporary alliance, were his traditional enemies. Furthermore, in late autumn news from Moscow came: the Russians wanted to protect Ukraine, and wage war against Poland.

Under the circumstances, on December 16, 1653, Poles and Tatars agreed to an oral truce. Khmelnytsky had to end the siege: his only achievement was that the Poles agreed to renew the Treaty of Zboriv. Polish Army finally left the camp, while Cossacks headed towards Pereyaslav, where the Treaty of Pereyaslav was signed in 1654.

title: Elioak, Maryland

text:
Elioak is an unincorporated community in Howard County, Maryland, United States. It was the home of the "Pushpin Farm", a 200-acre slave plantation purchased in 1724 in the Howard District of Anne Arundel County by Col. Edward Dorsey and which is the site of many prominent Dorsey family graves. The postal community was named after the Elioak plantation built by Owen Dorsey, Judge of the Baltimore Orphans' Court. A postal office operated in the community from 12 June 1893 to 15 September 1922. Local farm orchards were known for prize winning apples and pears. Local families such as the Kahler, Miller, and Worthington claimed Elioak as home while they served in World War I. After the war, the name fell out of use.

The road from Elioak to Simpsonville was resurveyed in 1820 as part of Charles Carroll's 13,000 acre Doughoregan Manor, with a stone inscription that read, "There stand the beginning trees of Doughoregan, Push Pin and the Girl's Portion". It would become paved in the early 1900s to form Route 108. The interior of the curving road formed the unofficial western boundary targeted for public water and sewer, as well as the area purchased by land speculators for the Rouse Company development of Columbia. The exterior forms the rural boundary of Howard County targeted for preservation though easements created by Senator Clark of Elioak Farm in the 1980s.

title: Over the Top (painting)

text:
"Over The Top". 1st Artists' Rifles at Marcoing, 30th December 1917 is a 1918 oil-on-canvas painting by John Nash.  It depicts a counter-attack on Welsh Ridge in northern France on 30 December 1917, during the First World War.    It is held by Imperial War Museum, London.

The painting measures .  It shows British soldiers in heavy winter greatcoats scrambling up from their trenches to advance over a snow-covered landscape.  Two already lie dead or wounded on the duckboards in the base of the trench and one on the snow.  The others move to the right without looking back.  Threatening clouds hang in the sky above, billowing darkly.  Two studies held by the Imperial War museum show the carefully balanced composition.

The painting is based on Nash's experience while serving in the 28th Battalion, the London Regiment.  His unit went "over the top", to push towards Marcoing near Cambrai. Of the 80 men, 68 were killed or wounded by the shell-fire during the first few minutes. Nash was one of the 12 that survived.  He made the painting in early 1918, having returned to England and been recommended by his brother Paul Nash to become an official war artist.  The work was commissioned by the Ministry of Information and painted in a rented seed-shed at Chalfont St Peter, Buckinghamshire.

title: Mary Ann Lisanti

text:
Mary Ann Lisanti (born October 27, 1967) is an American politician and a member of the Democratic Party, who represented District 34A in the Maryland House of Delegates. Previously she represented district F on the Harford County Council, representing Havre de Grace, Abingdon, Belcamp/Riverside and Aberdeen Proving Ground.  In January 2014 Lisanti filed to run for the Maryland House of Delegates and to not seek a 3rd term on the County Council. In early March 2019, the House of Delegates unanimously censured Lisanti for a racial slur directed at the African-American majority Prince George's County, with her own county's Democratic Party calling for her resignation.

Political career

2014 Maryland State Delegate candidacy
Lisanti entered the race for Delegate in district 34A after much speculation that she might run for the seat left open when Delegate Mary-Dulany James decided to run for Maryland State Senate.  On June 24, 2014 Lisanti led the Democratic primary by nearly 10 percentage points, with Marla Posey-Moss coming in second, after a heavily contested race with five candidates vying for two seats.  Lisanti and Posey-Moss faced Republicans Glen Glass and Mike Blizzard in the General election in November. Glass and Lisanti finished 1 and 2, thus gaining election.

Censure
On February 26, 2019, The Washington Post reported that Lisanti referred to Prince George's County, Maryland as a "n----- district" [thus in the original] in conversation with another Democratic legislator.  She was removed as the chair of a subcommittee. Two days later she was unanimously censured by the House of Delegates in a 136-0 vote, but refused to resign her seat. On March 2, 2019, the Harford County Democratic Central Committee called for Lisanti to resign for using the racial slur.

2022 Maryland State Senate candidacy
On January 28, 2022, Lisanti entered the race for State Senate in District 34, seeking to succeed Senator Robert G. Cassilly, who announced his candidacy for Harford County executive in April 2021. Lisanti lost the Democratic primary to Mary-Dulany James.

title: Alec Yoder

text:
Alec Yoder (born January 21, 1997) is a retired American artistic gymnast. He represented the United States at the 2020 Olympic Games, competing as an individual athlete.  He is the 2014 Youth Olympic all-around bronze medalist and the 2019 NCAA champion on pommel horse.

Early life
Yoder was born in Indianapolis, Indiana, on January 21, 1997, to parents Michael and Rebecca Yoder.  He began training in gymnastics at age four when his mother took him to a "mommy and me" class. He began  training at Deveau's School of Gymnastics in Fishers, Indiana. In July 2009, he left Deveau's and began training with Coach Gene Watson, first at Indy School of Gymnastics and then at InterActive Academy in Zionsville, Indiana.

Elite career
For both the 2013–14 and 2014–15 competitive seasons, he qualified to be a member of the US Men's Junior National Team. He was part of the 2014 Pacific Rim Championships team in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada, where he won two gold medals, a silver and a bronze. He was also a part of the 2014 Junior Pan Am Championships in Aracaju, Brazil, where he won four gold medals and a silver.

Yoder won the all-around title at the 2014 Men's Junior Olympic Men's Nationals. He also won the pommel horse and horizontal bar gold medals at that event.  Following that event, Yoder was chosen by the United States Olympic Committee to represent the USA at the 2014 Youth Olympic Games in Nanjing, China.

On August 19, 2014, Yoder won the bronze medal in the boys' individual all-around at the 2014 Youth Olympic Games in Nanjing, China.

At the 2015 Winter Cup in Las Vegas, Yoder finished 8th All Around in the Senior Division and was named to the Men's Senior National Team.

At the 2015 P&G Championships he led the pommel horse after Day 1 when he scored a rare 15.60 which placed him on the verge of becoming the youngest U.S. champion on pommel horse in 40 years.  After suffering a scary fall on Day 2 – he finished 5th in the pommel horse.

At the 2016 Winter Cup Challenge, he finished 9th All Around in the Senior Division.

Yoder's full recovery from labrum and bicep surgery led him to being named back to the Senior National Team for 2017-18 after finishing 11th All-Around at the 2017 P&G Championships.

Yoder continued his elite career in February 2018 by again making the 2018 Senior National Team following his performance at the 2018 Winter Cup, where he claimed sixth place in the All-Around and an individual event championship in pommel horse.

In March 2018, Yoder returned to international competition for Team USA for the first time in four years and finished with a bronze medal in pommel horse and a fifth-place finish in high bar at the Doha World Cup in Doha, Qatar.

In August 2018, Yoder won the national championship in pommel horse and finished fifth All-Around at the US Championships in Boston.  He automatically qualified back onto the Senior National Team and was then named to the World Championship Team Squad.

After a Third place All Around finish at the World Team Selection Camp, Yoder was named to the 2018 World Team to compete in Doha, Qatar for Team USA.

After graduation from Ohio State, Yoder continued to compete and returned to the 2020 Elite Winter Cup and won his second Winter Cup pommel horse championship.  He repeated in 2021 to accomplish a third Winter Cup pommel horse championship.

After finishing second in pommel horse at the 2021 US Championships, Yoder was invited to the 2021 Olympic Trials.

At the conclusion of the 2020 Olympic Trials, Yoder was selected to represent the United States at the 2020 Summer Olympics and will compete as an individual athlete rather than on the four-person team.

In Tokyo, Yoder scored the fourth-highest score in pommel horse preliminaries to earn a place in the Olympic Finals.  In the finals, he finished sixth.

Yoder then traveled to Japan again for Team USA in October of 2021 for the FIG World Championships where he again made the pommel horse event finals, finishing fifth.

Yoder announced his retirement from the sport on August 9, 2022.  Yoder finished his competitive career finishing a perfect 12/12 in his final 6 competitions. Yoder and Alex Naddour have the distinction as the only two gymnasts in Team USA history to win at least one US National Championship, NCAA Championship, Olympic Trials Championship and Winter Cup Championship on pommel horse.

College
On November 12, 2014, Yoder signed a National Letter of Intent accepting a full-ride gymnastics scholarship to compete for the Ohio State University starting in 2015–16.  Yoder began classes at Ohio State starting August 25, 2015.

As of April 2016, he has been named the Big Ten Freshman of the Week six times and the Big Ten Gymnast of the Week once. At the 2016 Big Ten Championships, Yoder helped lead the Buckeyes to their first championship since 2007. He also finished second in the all-around and first on the pommel horse. On April 2, 2016, Yoder was named the Big Ten Freshman of the Year.  On April 16, Yoder became a Three-Time NCAA All American as a Freshman when he finished 5th All-Around at the NCAA Championships, while also finishing 2nd on Pommel Horse and 7th on Still Rings as he helped lead Ohio State to a third-place finish.

Yoder opted for surgery in May 2016 to repair a torn labrum and torn bicep sustained at the 2016 Big Ten Championships in event finals.  His recovery was in time to compete in 2017 where he won four pommel horse event titles capped off by helping lead Ohio State to a back to back Big Ten Team Championships, a silver medal on parallel bars at Big Ten event finals, and then a second-place team finish at NCAAs where he finished in sixth in the All-Around and fourth in pommel horse less than a year after surgery.

At NCAAs in 2018, Yoder finished third in the All-Around while also finishing fourth in pommel horse and seventh in parallel bars.  This made 8 All American honors for Yoder in the first three years at Ohio State.

In April 2019, Yoder won his second Big Ten pommel horse championship  and then followed that up with the NCAA pommel horse championship.  He also was an All American on parallel bars - ending his collegiate career with 10 All American Awards, tied for fourth in Ohio State history.

Personal life
Prior to entering Ohio State, Alec Yoder was home-schooled by his parents starting after second grade. He has two siblings, Austin and Ashlyn.  Yoder is a Christian.

Yoder turned professional in May 2019 and is represented by Shade Global.  In July 2019, he was featured in a Hugo Boss modeling campaign called the Suit Challenge, becoming one of the few men's artistic gymnasts to cross over into fashion modeling.

title: Augustynolophus

text:
Augustynolophus is an extinct genus of herbivorous saurolophine hadrosaur dinosaur which was discovered in the Moreno Formation in California, dating to the late Maastrichtian age, making it one of the last dinosaurs known from the fossil record before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.

History of discovery

The generic name derives from a combination of the Augustyn family, who helped support the Los Angeles County Museum, and the suffix "-lophus," meaning crest, a reference to its relative Saurolophus. The specific name refers to palaeontologist William Morris. It was originally described as a species of Saurolophus, S. morrisi. However, when a more in-depth study took place, the end results revealed that its cranial structure was vastly different when it was juxtaposed with the other known members of the tribe Saurolophini, most notably Saurolophus osborni and Saurolophus angustirostris and Prosaurolophus maximus and therefore, it was determined to be a separate genus.

All known specimens of Augustynolophus have been found only in California, which was a part of Laramidia, among the best locations for dinosaur fossils. There are currently two known specimens of Augustynolophus. The holotype, LACM/CIT 2852, was unearthed in 1943. It consisted of the majority of the skull (including the dentary and predentary), vertebrae, and bones of the limb and hand. The second specimen was designated LACM/CIT 2760. Discovered in 1939, it was made up of elements of the skull and limbs. Due to its smaller size, it may have been a juvenile. It is one of three named dinosaurs from the western coast of the United States, the other two being the Campanian Aletopelta coombsi, and the sea bird Ichthyornis. Additionally there are a number of fragmentary remains which have been found of dinosaurs in all of the western coastal states, California, Oregon, and Washington. In addition to a tyrannosaur from Sucia Island of Washington,  fragmentary remains of indeterminate hadrosaurs and ornithopods have been found throughout California as far back as the 1930s and more recently Oregon as well.

In September 2017, Augustynolophus was declared the official state dinosaur of California.

Description

Augustynolophus was a large hadrosaur, reaching  in length and  in body mass. Like all species of hadrosaur, Augustynolophus morrisi was a herbivorous dinosaur which had a diet consisting of the plant life in the area, it was specialized to chew its food since hadrosaurs were one of the few known species of dinosaur that chewed its food.

Paleoecology

Very is little is known about the fauna found in the coastal states of Laramida, which is a stark similarity to the neighboring island continent of Appalachia which was on the opposite side of the Western Interior Seaway. The western United States has a rich history of rich fossil finds, most notable examples include the Hell Creek Formation and the Two Medicine Formation. However, like with Appalachia, the land fauna of western Laramidia, most notably the dinosaurs, is not well studied and are not well known.

However, despite the fact that dinosaur fossils are rare in California, the Moreno Formation is one of the more well studied Mesozoic geological formations in California and like Appalachia, it is more well known for the large amount of marine fossils. Augustynolophus shared its environment with a wide variety of marine creatures which consisted of non-marine turtles, mosasaurs, plesiosaurs and ray-finned fish. The turtles that lived in this region included Basilemys and Osteopygis. Mosasaurs were very common in this region and 4 species have been unearthed from this fossil formation. They include Prognathodon, Halisaurus, Plesiotylosaurus, and Plotosaurus.  Plesiosaurs that inhabited the Moreno Formation consisted of 4 genera: Frensosaurus, Morenosaurus, Aphrosaurus, and Hydrotherosaurus. Bonnerichthys and Saurodon were the only ray-finned fish found here.

To the Unknown British Soldier in France is an oil-on-canvas painting by Irish artist Sir William Orpen, exhibited in one state in 1923 and then modified in 1927.  It was one of three paintings commissioned from Orpen to commemorate the Peace Conference at Versailles in 1919. The work is held by the Imperial War Museum in London.

Background
Orpen was one of the first people chosen as a war artist by the British Ministry of Information in 1917.  Orpen was also official painter at the Versailles peace conference, and was commissioned to paint three canvases to record the roles of the politicians, diplomats and military at the conference, for a fee of £6,000.  The other two works, A Peace Conference at the Quai d'Orsay and The Signing of Peace in the Hall of Mirrors, Versailles, 28th June 1919, are both group portraits depicting the participants at the conference.

Orpen was deeply affected by the suffering he witnessed in France during the war, and grew to dislike the politicians at the conference.  To the Unknown British Soldier in France was originally intended to include a group of soldiers and statesmen in the Hall of Peace at the Palace of Versailles, including Admirals Beatty and Sturdee; Field Marshals Allenby, French, Haig and Plumer; Generals Cowans, Currie and Rawlinson; Lieutenant Arthur Rhys-Davids; David Lloyd George; Georges Clemenceau, and Marshals Pétain and Foch. Orpen had completed perhaps 30 portraits before he changed his mind and painted out the faces.  Over time, the faces have now become faintly visible again under the surface of the modified work.

Subject
The painting measures .  It shows a coffin holding the remains of an unknown soldier, lying in state in a marble hall, covered by a Union Flag and topped by a British helmet, with a chandelier hanging above. A dark hallway opens up through an arched opening behind the coffin, and light is visible falling from another arched opening in the distance, with the faint outline of a cross.  The coffin is located in the Hall of Peace at the Palace of Versailles, with the Hall of Mirrors behind leading to the Hall of War.

In place of the group portrait, in the original version of the revised painting, Orpen decided to accompany the coffin with an honour guard of two emaciated soldiers, bearing guns but clad only in loin-cloths of tattered blankets.  Above, two cherubs held a floral garland that reached down to the floor.

The completed work was first exhibited at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 1923.  It was one of the more popular exhibits with the public, but it was attacked as in poor taste by critics.  The Imperial War Museum declined to take the work on the grounds that it did not meet the terms of the commission.

Orpen later painted out the soldiers and the cherubs with their flowers, and then donated the revised painting to the Imperial War Museum in 1928 as a tribute to the late Field Marshal Haig.
