title: 1966 VFA season

text:
The 1966 Victorian Football Association season was the 85th season of the top division of the Australian rules football competition, and the sixth season of its second division. The Division 1 premiership was won by the Port Melbourne Football Club, after it defeated Waverley in the Grand Final on 25 September by 43 points; it was Port Melbourne's ninth premiership. The Division 2 premiership was won by Prahran.

Association membership
In July 1965, the Frankston Football Club was admitted to Division 2 of the Association for the 1966 season. The Association had been in favour of admitting Frankston for 1965, but the club failed to get a clearance from the Mornington Peninsula Football League. It was not until its third appeal for a clearance that the MPFL allowed Frankston to transfer.

Frankston's admission brought the Association to a then-record twenty clubs. It was the end of a ten-year expansion plan which the Association had first announced in 1956 to increase the size of the competition from fourteen clubs to twenty. It was the last change to the Association membership until 1982.

Grounds
The following ground changes occurred in 1966:
 Coburg returned to Coburg Oval, after having shared North Port Oval with Port Melbourne during 1965 due to the Victorian Football League's North Melbourne Football Club having moved to Coburg.
 Sunshine moved from its original home at Selwyn Park, Albion to the newly developed Skinner Reserve, Braybrook. The City of Sunshine had built the new venue for the club after it leased Selwyn Park to the George Cross soccer club.
 Sandringham moved its home base to the St Kilda Cricket Ground for the 1966 season. The arrangement lasted only one year.
 New club Frankston played at Frankston Oval.
 The Division 1 finals returned to the St Kilda Cricket Ground, after having been played at North Port Oval for the previous three seasons.

Division 1
The Division 1 home-and-home season was played over 18 rounds; the top four then contested the finals under the Page–McIntyre system.

 The leading goalkicker for the season was Johnny Walker (Preston), who kicked 78 goals during the home-and-home season and 84 goals overall.
 The J. J. Liston Trophy was won by Alan Poore (Waverley), who polled 39 votes. It was Poore's second consecutive Liston Trophy, and he became the first player ever to win the award twice – consecutively or otherwise – and the first to win any Association best and fairest award twice since Arthur Cutting's consecutive V.F.A. Medals in 1938 and 1939. Paul Ladds (Sandringham) was second with 27 votes, and Barry Ion (Yarraville) was third with 26 votes.
 Williamstown won the seconds premiership. Williamstown 14.14 (98) defeated Sandringham 11.9 (75) in the Grand Final, played as a stand-alone match on Saturday 24 September at Skinner Reserve before a crowd of 3,000.

Notable events

Interstate matches
The Association contested the 1966 Hobart Carnival during June. The team was coached by Perc Bushby (Coburg) and was captained by Keith Burns (Brunswick). The Association had a poor tournament, finishing last and losing all four matches by large margins; and, no Association players were selected in the All-Australian team.

Other notable events
 Oakleigh captain-coach John Benetti was dropped from the playing team at midseason due to poor form; he immediately resigned upon being informed that the financially struggling club could not afford to pay him as a non-playing coach. Oakleigh's win–loss record was 0–9 when Benetti resigned.
 On 16 July, Yarraville 6.5 (41) defeated Dandenong 4.12 (36) after Neil Fell kicked the winning goal from a set shot in the forward pocket in the final moments of the game. Three Dandenong defenders disputed the goal umpire's call, claiming that the ball hit the post on its way through. Dandenong raised a formal protest, but it was dismissed.
 On 7 August, Box Hill played its first ever Sunday match – an away match against Northcote. Box Hill had remained opposed to Sunday football since its introduction, but the club was struggling financially and needed access to the larger crowds available on Sundays The club remained unable to play Sunday matches at home until the council permitted them in 1969.
 In the Division 1 first semi-final, Yarraville trailed Preston by 5 points at half time, before kicking eight goals to one in the third quarter to take a 39-point lead; Preston then came from behind, kicking seven goals to none in the final quarter to win by two points, with the winning goal coming seconds before the final siren.

title: Dwight Quintero

text:
Dwight Quintero (born 20 January 1994) is a Trinidadian professional footballer who plays as a striker for TT Pro League club Central FC.

Quintero's professional career began with Central FC in his native Trinidad and Tobago, where he made his first-team debut in 2013, at the age of 19.

Early life
Quintero was born in Blanchisseuse, Trinidad and Tobago and attended El Dorado East Secondary School, where he repeated his final year to improve himself academically prior to pursuing a career in football. Dwight has stated that his aunt, Tamara, was a significant influence on his early football career as she encouraged and provided him with confidence to have higher aspirations.

In March 2009, Quintero joined the youth program at local club Joe Public and represented the Eastern Lions for three seasons. In 2011, Quintero led El Dorado East's Blue Thunder in his final season with 12 goals, which included two hat-tricks, and the Secondary Schools Football League (SSFL) East Zone title. After Joe Public withdrew from the TT Pro League following the 2010–11 season, Dwight made a switch to fellow Pro League club North East Stars in 2012 and played in their reserve team for two years.

Club career

Central FC
At the age of 19, Quintero signed a two-year contract with Central FC of the TT Pro League in July 2013. Two months later, he scored a 67th-minute goal in his league debut to give the Sharks a win over defending champions Defence Force in the 2013–14 league opener. In October 2013, Quintero scored in the final of the First Citizens Cup to give Central FC its first major trophy in a 2–1 win over Defence Force. He scored two more goals in the next three league matches against Police on 25 October and a week later against North East Stars on 1 November. Quintero continued his goal scoring form in November with five goals against National Super League clubs Joe Public and 1.FC Santa Rosa, respectively, during the TOYOTA Classic and FA Trophy competitions. He later scored a first-half equaliser for the Sharks in the FA Trophy final against W Connection on 18 December. However, after the arrival of Willis Plaza the next month, playing time was sparse for the remainder of the season. Quintero finished his first professional season with three league goals and 11 goals in all competitions.

International career
Quintero has represented Trinidad and Tobago on various levels of international competition, having been capped for the under-17 and under-20 national teams.

Youth teams
He began his international career for the under-17 team during qualification for the 2011 CONCACAF U-17 Championship, where he made three second-half substitute appearances. In February 2011, during the continental competition, Quintero made his first start for the Soca Warriors against hosts Jamaica. However, after a lackluster first-half performance he was an early second-half substitution. He went on to make late appearances in the team's final two matches against Guatemala and Canada.

In August 2012, Quintero made three scoreless starts as a lone striker for the under-20 team during their first round of qualification for the 2013 CONCACAF U-20 Championship. However, in November 2012, he made just one appearance for the Soca Warriors, which witnessed the team finish a disappointing bottom in their final qualification group.

title: Dylan Kwasniewski

text:
Dylan Kwasniewski ( ; born May 31, 1995) is an American real estate broker, businessman, entrepreneur, and former professional stock car racing driver. He last competed part-time in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, driving the No. 97 Chevrolet Camaro for Obaika Racing. Kwasniewski is the only driver in history to score both the ARCA Menards Series East and ARCA Menards Series West championships, he was also a developmental driver for Chip Ganassi Racing. In 2020 he co-founded 6 Summit Capital, before that he was Vice President of Colliers International starting in 2017 where he garnered $105 million dollars in deal volume in only 3 years.

Racing career
Born in Norwalk, Connecticut as the oldest of four children, Kwasniewski started his career driving go-karts at the age of four. He later raced in Bandoleros and Legends cars before joining the American Speed Association Super Truck Series in 2009. The same year, Rockstar Energy Drink, based in Kwasniewski's hometown of Las Vegas, Nevada, signed on as his sponsor. In 2010, Kwasniewski raced a late model car in the Lucas Oil / Rockstar Modified Series and made the move to NASCAR the following year.

Touring series

In 2011, Kwasniewski entered the K&N Pro Series West, driving for Gene Price Motorsports in the No. 03 Chevrolet, and finished second in his debut at All American Speedway. At Colorado National Speedway, Kwasniewski won the pole position and the race, becoming the youngest driver to win a series pole and race. He won again during the season at Montana Raceway Park, and ended the season fifth in the points standings, along with nine top-tens. Kwasniewski was subsequently named Rookie of the Year. In 2012, Kwasniewski won three times at Stockton 99 Raceway, Iowa Speedway and All American Speedway, along with recording 15 top-tens. Entering the season finale at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Kwasniewski led teammate and 2011 series champion Greg Pursley by two points, and with a second-place finish, beat Pursley for the title by six points. At 17 years, 5 months and 10 days, Kwasniewski became the youngest champion in series history, surpassing Chuck Bown's record set in 1976 at 22 years, 7 months and 11 days.

In 2012, Kwasniewski announced talks with Joe Gibbs Racing to field a car in the K&N Pro Series East for the 2013 season, but eventually joined Turner Scott Motorsports (TSM), driving the No. 98. On January 7, 2013, Kwasniewski was named to the NASCAR Next program, which documents the potential future stars in NASCAR. In his first East race at Bristol Motor Speedway, Kwasniewski led 96 of 125 laps en route to the win. Kwasniewski added to his win with victories at Iowa, Langley Speedway, Virginia International Raceway and Greenville-Pickens Speedway. At the season-ending Road Atlanta race, Kwasniewski held the points lead over Brett Moffitt by five points, but transmission problems eliminated Moffitt from championship contention, as Kwasniewski led every lap to win the East championship, becoming the first driver to win both East and West titles. During the year, Kwasniewski also ran an ARCA Racing Series race at Kansas Speedway, winning the pole and finishing fourth.

Xfinity Series

On February 3, 2014, TSM announced that Kwasniewski would enter the Nationwide Series for the 2014 season, driving the team's No. 31 Rockstar Chevrolet. In a press release regarding the news, Kwasniewski stated:

Kwasniewski was the fastest driver during the second day of Nationwide testing at Daytona International Speedway, and later entered the ARCA Racing Series' Lucas Oil 200 with TSM, winning the pole position. He finished 14th in the race. On February 21, Kwasniewski clinched the pole for the Nationwide season-opening DRIVE4COPD 300, becoming the eleventh driver in series history to win the pole in his first series start, and the youngest Nationwide pole-sitter at Daytona.

In March 2014, Kwasniewski signed with Chip Ganassi Racing's driver development program. On May 12, Turner Scott Motorsports announced that Kwasniewski would run standalone Nationwide Series events in the team's No. 42, in which Kyle Larson was unavailable. Kwasniewski ran the No. 42 with Rockstar at Iowa in August. Kwasniewski ended 2014 with three top-tens and an 11th-place points finish.

Kwasniewski was scheduled to return to the team, which was renamed HScott Motorsports, for 2015 on a part-time basis in the No. 42. However, he and Rockstar failed to reach an agreement to continue sponsoring the car, and with Brennan Poole joining the team, his future became uncertain. As a result, Kwasniewski stated plans to raise sponsorship money to fund a car for the 2016 season. Kwasniewski was picked up by Obaika Racing to make his debut in 2015 at Mid-Ohio, eventually driving in a total of six races for the team.

Personal life
Kwasniewski is a graduate of Faith Lutheran Middle School & High School. His late father, Randy, was the former CEO of the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.

title: Acetoacetanilide

text:
Acetoacetanilide is an organic compound with the formula CH3C(O)CH2C(O)NHC6H5.  It is the acetoacetamide derivative of aniline.  It is a white solid that is poorly soluble in water.  This chemical and many related compounds (prepared from various aniline derivatives) are used in the production of organic pigments called arylide yellows.

Preparation and reactions
Acetoacetanilide is prepared by acetoacetylation of aniline using diketene.

To make the dyes, acetoacetanilides are coupled to diazonium salts, "azo coupling".

title: Voco Point

text:
Voco Point  is a suburb of Lae in the Morobe Province, Papua New Guinea. Voco Point is one of the busiest coastal trading points in the country and coastal vessels from throughout the country, from Alotau to Manus, from Lihir to Vanimo line up at the wharves. The passenger boats ferry people to Finschhafen, the Siassi islands, Kimbe, Rabaul, New Ireland, Oro Bay, Alotau, Madang, and Wewak. The local Lae villages call the area around Voco Point Asiawi, which according to mythology, used to be a long point that went out much further but was eaten by the evil spirit Yaayaa.

Location

Voco Point is located 1 km east of the main port of Lae and south of the main town on the coast.

Nomenclature

The pre-World War I Vacuum Oil Company, later called Mobil, had a depot at the site of Voco Point. Voco is short for Vacuum Oil Company.

History

The main township of Lae was originally on the flats between Voco Point and the airfield. The site was later shifted to the terraces above where the elite had lived in the days before the war.

During colonial times, local Chinese trading stores dominated the area. The Chinese had been brought to Lae and Rabaul by German colonials, for their boat building and carpentry skills.

World War II

During the Japanese occupation of Lae, barges from Voco Point would unload to resupply Japanese submarines from Rabaul. Barges included the LSTs MK3 of the RAN.

On 18 March, two spotters from the 23rd Heavy Wireless Section watched 12 barges emerge from their Labu swamp hideout to Voco Point to meet a submarine, which was then bombed by the USAAF. The Commander of the submarine, Captain Yahachi Tanabe, was killed.

Macarthur's Communique in newspapers reported: "LAE: Allied planes bombed Voco Point, drove off 9 Zeros".

Lyndon B. Johnson was appointed Lieutenant Commander in the United States Naval Reserve on 21 June 1940. Eleven B-26 Marauders of the 22nd Bomb Group departed Townsville on 8 June 1942, arrived in Port Moresby and raided Lae on 9 June 1942. The mission was called "TOW 9" and Lieutenant Commander Johnson, the future 36th President of the United States, went on this raid as an observer on the aircraft, the Heckling Hare.  Nine days after the raid, Johnson was awarded a Silver Star medal for his participation in the above bombing raid.

After Lae was liberated from Japanese occupation, 7th Division's Brigadier Eather set off by jeep to replace the Japanese flag on Mount Lunaman with the Australian flag.

During the late 1920s, many of the original inhabitants of Voco Point were employed by Australian airlines and traders. Their homes were moved to the 'roun wara' R2 area (now Eriku).

Mount Lunaman

Mount Lunaman is 96 meters high and has a radio tower at the highest point marked by red fixed obstruction lights to assist navigation. At the base of Mount Lunaman at the southern and south-eastern face are the suburbs of Voco Point and Chinatown. The terraces are located to the west of Mount Lunaman.

Mount Lunaman is known to the locals as Lo' Wamung, or Locwamu which means "first hill", Hospital Hill and Fortress Hill by the German settlers.

Mount Lunaman and the Lae urban area have been the subject of several tectonic studies relating to plate shift.

Voco Point suffers from undersea landslides, because of the very steep shelf, and portions are lost about every 50 years. The last event was in the mid-1950s, when a wading pool in Stewart Park disappeared into the sea. The Rotary Club then re-built the wading pool in the Botanical Gardens. Local clan lore has more fanciful explanations of these losses.

Mount Lunaman during World War II

Mount Lunaman was an important landmark for both Japanese and the Allies:
"The men of the South Australian battalion hammered and sawed vigorously at the top of the terrace. They were reconstructing, with captured Japanese tools, the skeleton of the cottage formerly used as the Japanese commander's sanctum. A hole beneath the door led by a tunnel to a labyrinth of passages and apertures which honeycombed Mount Lunaman."

In a 1970 TV interview (JNTV) a Japanese general commanding Lae stated that the tunnels were used to house aircraft munitions and Avgas and were within 200m of the nearby airfield. In the same interview the general stated the Japanese utilized the Lutheran hospital at Malahang.

Unconfirmed reports state that Mount Lunaman contained the remains of many Japanese soldiers who defended Lae using tunnels:

A Japanese tomb believed to contain bodies of hundreds of Lae defenders was bought by two South Australian men for 1 pound. The tomb lies under Mount Lunaman, which is said to house a hospital and when the Japanese in tunnels refused to surrender to the Australian 7th Division and 9th Division troops in 1943 all entrances were sealed.

Australian Women's Army Service barracks

The 68th Australian Women's Army Service barracks was located on Butibum Road at the base of Mount Lunaman near the present location of Sir Ignatius Kilage Stadium. The barracks were constructed by army engineers and New Guinean workers and the compound perimeter was enclosed by a high barbed wire fence patrolled by armed guards. Many women considered the high fences a symbol of constraint and the popular song "Don't Fence me In" was often sung.

One day after landing in Lae, news came through of the Allied Victory in Europe. A total of 385 AWAS in Lae served under the command of Lieutenant-Colonel Margaret Spencer. They served with First Army Headquarters and some supporting units, including in Ordnance and Signals.

Hotel Cecil

In March 1936, Mrs. Flora (Flo) Shaw Stewart (1886–1979) opened the Hotel Cecil at the base of Mount Lunaman at the location near the Sir Ignatius Kilage Stadium. In December 1941 Stewart was evacuated to Australia with her two daughters. She returned to Lae at the end of World War II where she took over the Australian Women's Army Service barracks and turned them into a temporary Hotel Cecil for the war-ravaged town. She remained an army nurse until 1948 following protracted battles with officials (Bret Bretag and other councillors) over licensing for the hotel. She finally rebuilt the hotel on its pre-war site in 1951 and operated it until 1957. Reported to cost over £100,000, the hotel took two and a half years to build and has 51 rooms and a dining room. The Hotel Cecil's Bamboo Bar was a very popular "watering hole" for many local identities of Lae and the district.

The new PNG mandate did not allow the sale of alcohol to PNG nationals. The cruise liners of the 1930s, which kept the original hotel in business, did not make a comeback, which left business quite slack. The Stewarts sold the hotel in 1958, and opened the Morobe Theatre in Second Street.

Lae cemetery

Lae cemetery was on the original site at the foot of Mount Lunaman.

Settlements

On 21 May 1991 the Voco Point settlement was evicted and the families were given little time to carry their belongings out of their houses. During this year the government and police also evicted two other settlements.

Traders from the Huon Peninsula and Siassi Islands have been subject to harassment and vandalism from the Bumbu settlers, forcing boat operators to moor at alternate locations. In response, businessman Hilmar Wong has built a police station and a lockup at the troubled spot.

Lutheran Shipping

Lutheran Shipping is located at Voco Point.

In 1908, Samuel Jericho, one of the few Australian Lutherans to join the mission before World War I, arrived to take charge of the boats. He sailed the first mission vessel, Bavaria, the early forerunner of the fleet of Lutheran Shipping New Guinea.

On 7 September 1991, 24 people were missing when MV Simbang capsized near Sialum. 83 people were on board.

In 2012 the National Maritime Safety Authority ordered the company to ground four of its eight vessels because they were not seaworthy.

Lae Yacht Club
The yacht club was established in 1950 by Bill Humphries and Bill Carr at Voco Point. Lae Yacht Club moved from Voco Point to the existing premises. On 15 March 2003 the new location was officially opened by the MP Bart Philemon and became the most prestigious yacht club in Papua New Guinea. As of 20 July 2012, membership records exceed 1100 Full Members, Social Members and Associates.

title: Municipal waste management in Winnipeg

text:
Statistical data shows that waste management in Winnipeg during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Generation

The statistical data show that with the increase in the GDP per capita of Winnipeg, waste generation decreased due to the increased effectiveness of the municipal waste management plan after 2005.  The city of Winnipeg has implemented various strategies to address municipal waste treatment.

Treatment
On October 19, 2011, the Winnipeg City Council approved the master plan of a comprehensive waste management plan, requested by the City Council to the Public Service on June 23, 2010, for the entire city to increase the waste diversion rate to 50% or more. This plan would achieve this target by reducing household garbage and by increasing household recycling. This plan was made effective for municipal waste management by Winnipeg in the first week of October 2012.

The Comprehensive Waste Management Plan is based on three main guiding principles which were established through the Phase – 1 participation process and input from the Stakeholder Advisory Committee. These principles help to shape the goals and objectives of the Garbage and Recycling Master Plan (GRMP) that helps to guide potential options for the garbage, recycling, and organic services in Winnipeg. Those Principles are:
Sustainability – Environmental, economic, and social factors are being considered in the decision-making process under this principle. These factors are intertwined with each other and so are they are needed to be evaluated together – not as three separate parts. Figure – 3.

Waste Hierarchy – this principle places priority on preventing waste generation (reducing and reusing); maximizing waste diversion (recycling and recovery) and minimizing disposal (residuals). Figure –
Zero Waste – The Federation of Canadian Municipalities, defines this as A community that "has made a long-term commitment to reducing waste through measures such as extended producer responsibility programs, economic instruments to encourage waste reduction, green procurement and product design that includes end-of-life management.

The municipal waste management by Winnipeg City is consistent with the Provincial regulations. A curbside collection of recyclables to the residential locations is provided by the City of Winnipeg. Figure – 5 shows the residential recycling reports that show that recycling at the residential level in Winnipeg has an 85% of participation rate, which results in diverting approximately 48,087 tonnes of recyclable materials from the waste landfill disposal stream. This tonnage is equivalent to approximately 17% of the waste stream. Recyclables that are collected by the City of Winnipeg from the residential locations include a standard list of blue box material that includes:

Plastic containers with a recycling triangle on the bottom, including all bottles, pails, tubs, and jugs
Aluminum drink cans
Steel (tin) food cans
Milk and juice cartons
Juice boxes
Newspapers and inserts, flyers, and junk mail
Magazines, phone books, household paper, shredded paper, and envelopes
Cardboard egg cartons and paper tubes
Flattened cardboard, no more than 1 meter in any direction, e.g., cereal, cracker, tissue, laundry,
Shoe and packing boxes
Glass jars and bottles (clear and colored).

Some other programs have been undertaken by the City of Winnipeg other than recycling for Waste minimization and diversion. These programs include Leaf-It Depots, Chin-In Depots, and a Backyard Composting program. Winnipeg also has seven general-use recycling depots around the city. The net cost of the current recycling program depends on the market rates for the recycled materials and the level of funding received under Provincial regulation. Over the past 15 years, Winnipeg City has recycled more than 700 million kg of waste through the Manitoba Product Stewardship Corporation (MPSC), which pays 80% of the net cost of the recycling service.

The reduction of waste at or near the source of generation is known as Source Reduction of waste and this is one of the most important and promising methods for reduction in the waste generation for the growing waste in Canada. The Source Separated Organics (SSO) also counts under the treatments of municipal waste and source reduction techniques. This treatment helps in minimizing the waste in other words SSO is used for diverting solid wastes from the landfills. These SSO have comprised about 1/ 3 to  of the total residential waste of Winnipeg. SSO includes materials like kitchen waste, yard waste, etc. and Winnipeg did about 53% of the total (kitchen + yard waste) of composting that includes 24% of Kitchen waste and 68% of Yard waste. This SSO is separated from the undesirable materials that are then sent to the curbside collection as a separate residual waste stream.

The City of Winnipeg is evaluating new technologies and processes for resource recovery, such as thermal oxidation, carbonizing, aerobic digestion, pelletizing, and organic waste management. The decomposition of organic waste releases methane gas, and landfills consisting of organic waste generate methane gas, known for its harmful effects on the environment as a greenhouse gas (GHG). National statistics indicate that 4% of the total GHG emissions are generated from landfills. The City of Winnipeg may at some point use this gas as a resource recovery opportunity at the Brady Landfill site to displace natural gas or to produce electricity. Currently the gas is being collected via in-ground perforated pipe under negative pressure and flared. Talks between the city, Manitoba Hydro and the University of Manitoba about supplying this gas to the campus (approx.. 6 km away) has not led to any action to date. Alternatively, the gas could be added to the grid once it was scrubbed to remove , , and water.

The City of Winnipeg currently composts yard wastes during summer months and has initiated a pilot curbside pick-up of kitchen organics for approximately 4000 residences. This project will be assessed in 2023.

Municipal waste generation and economic development in Winnipeg
The statistics shown in table below is the data representation of waste generation and economic development of Winnipeg City, and shows the municipal Waste Generation, Population and real GDP of the city. Here real GDP is used as an economic growth indicator of the city.

In 1997, the population of Winnipeg was approximately 618,477 whereas the real GDP of the city was approximately $19,340 million. At the same time, the waste generation of the city was 225,149 tons/yr, with an average of 330.24 kg/per capita/yr. In 2001, the population was 619,544, real GDP was $21,517 million, and the waste generation in the city was 254,334 tons/yr, with an average of 372.41 kg/per capita/yr.

According to table-1 faced maximum waste generation in the year 2006, with a population of 633,451, real GDP of $24,035 million, and a waste generation of 274,355 tons/yr. with an average of 392.91 kg/per capita/yr. This data shows that the City of Winnipeg was facing the challenge of an increasing population, increasing GDP, and, at the same time, an increase in waste generation of Winnipeg.

After realizing the challenge, the City of Winnipeg increased its Waste Management efficiency and the results are represented in table-1 and figure-1. In the year 2011, the City of Winnipeg was able to reduce the waste generation of the city, despite the growing population.

title: Be More

text:
"Be More" is the twenty-eighth episode of the fifth season of the American animated television series Adventure Time. It was written and storyboarded by Tom Herpich and Steve Wolfhard, from a story by Patrick McHale, Kent Osborne, Pendleton Ward, Rebecca Sugar, Herpich, and Wolfhard. It originally aired on Cartoon Network on July 22, 2013. The episode guest stars Aziz Ansari as DMO, Paul F. Tompkins as the SMOs, and Chuck McCann as Moe.

The series follows the adventures of Finn (voiced by Jeremy Shada), a human boy, and his best friend and adoptive brother Jake (voiced by John DiMaggio), a dog with magical powers to change shape and grow and shrink at will. In this episode, BMO, Finn and Jake's sentient computer game, accidentally deletes a core system driver, forcing Finn and Jake to sneak into the MO factory in order to fix BMO. However, the three are pursued by security guard SMOs (voiced by Tompkins); Finn, Jake, and BMO eventually run into Moe Giovanni (voiced by McCann), the ancient and benevolent human-cyborg creator of the MOs, who explains BMO's backstory.

"Be More" was originally intended to have been produced during the series' third season, but was later moved to the series' fifth season, by which time it had changed substantially. It was viewed by 2.67 million viewers and received a 0.7 rating among adults between the ages of 18 and 49. The episode received largely positive critical reviews, with Oliver Sava from The A.V. Club applauding the extrapolation of BMOs backstory, as well as its potential for narrative expansions. The episode was later nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Short-format Animation at the 66th Primetime Emmy Awards, but lost to the Mickey Mouse episode "O Sole Minnie".

Plot
While deleting files, BMO accidentally deletes its core system drivers. Finn and Jake decide to accompany BMO to the Mo Factory so that BMO can get the drivers re-installed; BMO cautions Finn and Jake that its memory will be erased, so the trio disguise themselves as FMO and JMO and successfully sneak past DMO (voiced by Aziz Ansari) and infiltrate the facility. Once inside, they find the factory derelict and abandoned. DMO and the security SMOs (voiced by Paul F. Tompkins) soon catch onto Finn, Jake, and BMO's scheme and give chase. The three evade security and sneak into the SMO lounge.

BMO hacks into one of the SMOs and learns the location of the core system driver installation deck. Once again, the SMOs give chase until Finn, Jake, and BMO reach the heart of the facility. There, the three meet Moseph "Moe Mastro Giovanni" (voiced by Chuck McCann), the ancient and benevolent cyborg creator and leader of the MOs. Moe explains BMO's backstory, revealing that BMO was created to take care of and have fun with Moe's son; however, Moe never had children and so he released BMO into the wild to find another family. Moe updates BMO drivers, and introduces it to his "family" of MOs.

Production

"Be More" was written and storyboarded by Tom Herpich and Steve Wolfhard, from a story by Kent Osborne, Pendleton Ward, Patrick McHale, Rebecca Sugar, Herpich, and Wolfhard. Art direction was handled by Nick Jennings, whereas supervising direction was helmed by Nate Cash. The episode was originally intended to have been produced during the series' third season, thus the reason that Sugara former storyboard artist on the show who had left after working on the earlier episode "Simon & Marcy"was credited for having co-written the episode's story. However, the entry was pushed back until it was finalized during the latter part of the fifth season; according to both supervising producer Adam Muto and Rebecca Sugar, by the time the episode was being developed during the fifth season, it had substantially changed.

The character of Moe was designed by Wolfhard, and was based on actor Jamie Farr. The original ending featured Moe telling Finn, Jake, and BMO to leave because he has to use the bathroom; Wolfhard noted that this was "wisely vetoed" by Herpich and Muto. Comedian Aziz Ansari plays the part of DMO. In 2011, Ansari had previously been invited by Ward via Twitter to voice a character on the show. Chuck McCann voices Moe. According to storyline writer Jack Pendarvis, series creator Pendleton Ward asked him to be in the show after seeing one of his performances. The episode also guest stars Paul F. Tompkins as the security guard SMOs. Tompkins had previously voiced an unrelated character in the fourth season episode "Ignition Point".

Reception
"Be More" aired on July 22, 2013 on Cartoon Network. It was watched by 2.67 million viewers, and received a 0.7 rating in the 18–49 demographic Nielsen household rating. Nielsen ratings are audience measurement systems that determine the audience size and composition of television programming in the United States, which means that the episode was seen by 0.7 percent of all 18- to 49-year-olds at the time of the broadcast. The installment was the 31st most-watched cable program in the 18–49 demographic on the night it aired. The episode first saw commercial release as part of the 2014 The Suitor DVD, which included 16 episodes from the series.

Oliver Sava of The A.V. Club awarded the episode a "B+". He applauded it for its exploration of BMO, its opening of new narrative opportunities with the introduction of Moe. Furthermore, he complimented both Ansari's and Tompkin's voice acting, noting that the "actors hired by this show have speaking voices that are immediately distinct, and that natural personality helps flesh out bit roles and make them memorable." Furthermore, Sava wrote that the entry's climax, featuring Moe explaining that BMO was built to understand fun was "an interesting insight into the philosophy behind this series" because the "childlike mentality of fun and play is an enlightened state in Adventure Time, and BMO reaches that every day with Finn and Jake."

The episode was later nominated for a Primetime Emmy Award for Short-format Animation at the 66th Primetime Emmy Awards, but lost to the Mickey Mouse episode "O Sole Minnie".

Roy Jones Jr. vs. Montell Griffin, billed as The Battle of the Undefeated, was a professional boxing match contested on March 21, 1997 for the WBC light heavyweight championship.

Background
In his previous fight Roy Jones Jr. had captured the WBC light heavyweight championship after defeating Mike McCallum, making Jones a three-division world champion after previously winning titles in the middleweight and super middleweight divisions. For Jones' first defense, he was matched up against the undefeated Montell "Ice" Griffin, who in his previous fight had defeated James Toney for the second time to capture the less-regarded WBU light heavyweight title. Prior to the fight, Griffin was seen by some as possibly the greatest challenge Jones, who was ranked by The Ring'' magazine as the number-one pound-for-pound fighter in all of boxing, had faced in his professional career. Jones entered the fight as the overwhelming favorite, with the odds being as high as 17–1 in his favor, though they went down to 6–1 by the time of the fight.

The fight
Jones, who had rarely lost rounds on the scorecards, was taken to the limit by Griffin, who controlled the early portion of the fight. Jones eventually regained himself and by round nine, had taken a narrow lead on two of the judge's scorecards with scores of 77–75 and 76–75. The other judge, however, had Griffin ahead with a score of 76–75. In the ninth and final round, Griffin would dictate the pace for most of the first two minutes. But as the second minute came to a close, Jones staggered Griffin with a right hand. Jones then proceeded to attack Griffin in hopes of securing the knockout victory. Overwhelmed by Jones' flurry, Griffin took a knee with 45 seconds remaining in the round in an effort to avoid further punishment. However, Jones then landed a right–left combination, causing Griffin to slump forward and lay face-first on the canvas. Referee Tony Perez then proceeded to count Griffin  out and the fight was stopped at the 2:27 mark. Thinking he had picked up the knockout victory, Jones began to celebrate with his corner, but Perez then announced that he had disqualified Jones for the illegal blow, giving Jones his first professional loss and making Griffin the new WBC light heavyweight champion.

Aftermath
Jones' explained after the match that he "wasn't sure (Griffin) was down. I didn't have time to think and see whether he was down. I thought he was down and he might come back at me. I wasn't looking at his knees. I was looking at his face." Jones also put the blame on referee Tony Perez, saying "I didn't feel the ref try to separate me at all."  Perez reiterated that he began counting Griffin out because, he should've been able to continue, he would've only taken one or two point from Jones. However, when Griffin was unable to continue, Perez was left with no choice but to disqualify Jones for the foul.

Griffin initially talked of a unification match with then-WBA and IBF light heavyweight champion Virgil Hill, but he instead agreed to a rematch with Jones less than five months after their first fight on August 7, 1997.

title: Edward Archer (physician)

text:
Edward Archer (1718–1789) was an English physician, closely associated with the practice of inoculation against smallpox.

Life
Archer was born in Southwark, studying medicine in Edinburgh and afterwards in Leyden, where he graduated M.D. in 1746. In 1747 he was elected physician to the Smallpox Hospital in north London, which had recently been founded, amalgamating the "Hospital for the Small-pox" and the "Hospital for Inoculation", to give inoculations to those who previously could not afford the treatment. The Hospital had had Robert Poole as its first physician, from 1746, but he left the country in 1748.

Archer had a private fortune, and took on little in the way of private practice. He gave most attention to the Smallpox Hospital. He ended his life 28 March 1789, dying within the walls of the Hospital where he had worked for 42 years, as he wished. He was succeeded by William Lister, and then William Woodville from 1791, at the Hospital, which was rebuilt starting in 1794.

Works
Archer's M.D. dissertation was De Rheumatismo. He wrote a note on smallpox for the Journal Britannique for 1755, and an introductory epistle for An Account of Inoculation, presented to the Royal Commissioners of Health in Sweden, by David Schultz, M.D., who attended the Small-pox Hospital in London near a twelvemonth (1758), translated from the Swedish original by Schultz. David Schultz von Schultzenheim was a Prussian who promoted inoculation in Sweden.

title: Edward Frederick Leitner

text:
Edward Frederick Leitner, also Friedrich August Ludwig Leitner (4 February 1812, in Stuttgart – 15 January 1838) was a German botanist, naturalist and physician.

At the age of four, his family moved to Schorndorf after the death of his father. Following studies of botany at the University of Tübingen, he moved to the United States after receiving a subsidy from the Society of Natural Sciences in Württemberg. In 1831 he began taking classes at the Medical College of South Carolina in Charleston. In 1833 collected botanical and zoological specimens in Florida, eventually reaching the Florida Keys, during which, he paid a visit to the Dry Tortugas.

In 1834, he graduated from medical college with a dissertation on Hippomane mancinella, subsequently working as a lecturer at the South Carolina Medical Society. In 1836 he returned as a naturalist to the Florida Keys, where in Key West, he joined a military group as a guide and surgeon. On 15 January 1838, he was mortally wounded in a skirmish with Seminoles near Jupiter Inlet.

After his death, 800 of his specimens eventually came into the possession of Jean Louis Cabanis, however these were completely destroyed during the bombing of Berlin in 1943. The genus Leitneria is named in his honor, as is the family Leitneriaceae, the latter taxa being circumscribed by George Bentham.

title: Sons of Mars (Adventure Time)

text:
"Sons of Mars" is the fifteenth episode of the fourth season of the American animated television series Adventure Time. The episode was written and storyboarded by Ako Castuera and Jesse Moynihan, from a story by Patrick McHale, Kent Osborne, and Pendleton Ward. It originally aired on Cartoon Network on July 23, 2012. The episode guest stars Tom Gammill, Miguel Ferrer, and Melissa Villaseñor.

The series follows the adventures of Finn (voiced by Jeremy Shada), a human boy, and his best friend and adoptive brother Jake (voiced by John DiMaggio), a dog with magical powers to change shape and grow and shrink at will. In this episode, when the Martian deity Grob Gob Glob Grod (voiced by Tom Gammill, Miguel Ferrer, Melissa Villaseñor, and Tom Kenny) comes to arrest Magic Man (voiced by Kenny) for his crimes, he uses his magic to disguise himself as Jake to escape his trial while having the real Jake take his place. Jake is tried by Abraham Lincoln (voiced by Ward), King of Mars, but soon, all is righted when Finn travels to Mars to save his friend.

The episode marks both the return of Lincoln, who had appeared in the series' pilot episode, as well as the on-screen debut of the oft-mentioned deity Grob Gob Glob Grod. Ward had originally wanted Bill Nye, Bill Cosby, Bill Clinton, and Bill Murray to voice the character. "Sons of Mars" helped Cartoon Network mark double digit growth in all kid demos for the night, according to Nielsen ratings. It received largely positive reviews from critics, with many applauding the absurdity apparent in the episode.

Plot
Magic Man (voiced by Tom Kenny) is spotted by his four-headed Martian brother Grob Gob Glob Grod (voiced by Tom Gammill, Miguel Ferrer, Melissa Villaseñor, and Tom Kenny) comes to arrest Magic Man (voiced by Kenny), who are planning on bringing Magic Man back to Mars to face trial for his many crimes. Magic Man soon runs into Finn and Jake, and knocks them both unconscious. He then physically turns himself into Jake, and transforms Jake into him. Grob Gob Glob Grod, not realizing the difference, seizes Jake and rockets off to Mars. Finn, aware of the charade, forces Magic Man to take him to his house in order to find something that can help him save Jake. Magic Man's house, however, is completely derelict, and is a reflection of Magic Man's "sick mind". For instance, plants and animals live wildly in the structure, and a tiny Manticore is kept in a glass jar, apparently for Magic Man's amusement.

Finn discovers a Martian teleporter that was given to Magic Man in the hopes that he would learn love and voluntarily return to his home planet. Finn warps to Mars, and witnesses Jake being put on trial in front of Abraham Lincoln (voiced by Pendleton Ward), the King of Mars. Magic Man is found guilty, and while Jake tries to plead his case, it falls on deaf ears. Lincoln gives Jake two options: he can either be put to death with the Wand of Disbursement, or Lincoln can use the power of the wand to turn him into living star dust. Before Jake can answer, Finn intervenes, accidentally causing the wand to touch Jake, killing him. Lincoln, realizing his mistake, travels to the 37th Dead World and pleads with Death; Lincoln initially offers Death a penny in exchange for Jake's soul before agreeing to surrender his immortality. Death accepts the deal, bringing Jake back to life, but leaving Lincoln as a lifeless statue. Finn and Jake then rocket back to Earth and punch Magic Man in the face.

Production

"Sons of Mars" was written and storyboarded by Jesse Moynihan and Ako Castuera, from a story developed by series creator Pendleton Ward, Patrick McHale, Kent Osborne, Moynihan, and Doug TenNapel. TenNapel had previously written the storyboard for the scrapped first season episode "The Glorriors". The reason he was credited for "Sons of Mars" was because the scene featuring Lincoln interacting with Death was very similar to a scene he boarded in a scrapped season one episode. The entry was directed by Larry Leichliter. According to Moynihan, the episode was originally supposed to be connected to the third-season episode "Ghost Princess"; in Moynihan's original story, the premise involved both Ghost Princess and Magic Man. In the end, after "extensive meetings" with the show's writing staff, Moynihan decided to rewrite the episode so that it would serve as a sequel to Magic Man's story. The name "Margles" was a reference to Moynihan's ex-girlfriend Margaret. Moynihan envisioned the episode as a way to negate any negative energy about their relationship and breakup, thereby "exorcis[ing] [the energy] from his heart".

A large portion of the episode's original draft featured Finn and Jake discovering a strange naturalistic temple inscribed with carvings of Abraham Lincoln. These scenes were excised due to the time constraints of the episode, and creative director Nate Cash storyboarded a shorter scene—featuring Finn and Jake carrying a broken robot—to take the removed material's place. Ward was very conscientious in how Lincoln was portrayed in the episode; he wanted him to be exclusively referred to as "King of Mars". This was because he felt Lincoln's appearance in the pilot was solely for cheap laughs. For "Sons of Mars", Ward wanted his appearance to have real meaning.

Dan "Ghostshrimp" Bandit designed many of the backgrounds in this episode, including most of Magic Man's house; on his Instagram account, Ghostshrimp posted several background stills of this location, writing, "This is one of my all time fave locations for some reason! It just makes me feel silly and spooky at the same time!" Portions of Magic Man's house feature a number of cardboard boxes labelled "Dirt", which Ghostshrimp added because he thought they were "mysterious and intriguing". These sorts of idiosyncratic background details were added because Ghostshrimp was "try[ing] to create a story beyond the story!"

"Sons of Mars" features the return of several characters, with perhaps the most obvious being Magic Man, voiced by Kenny, who had originally appeared in the first-season episode "Freak City". The episode also features the return appearance of Lincoln as the king of Mars. Lincoln had originally appeared in the series' pilot episode in 2007. Grob Gob Glob Grod, an oft-mentioned deity in the Adventure Time universe appears on screen for the first time in this episode;  Moynihan had crafted the character in order to retcon why various names had been ascribed to the being over the course of several seasons. The deity's four heads were voiced by Kenny, Tom Gammill, Melissa Villaseñor, and Miguel Ferrer. (Ward had originally wanted Bill Nye, Bill Cosby, Bill Clinton, and Bill Murray to voice the character.) Ferrer also reprises his role as Death, a character who had first appeared in the second season episode "Death in Bloom".

Reception
"Sons of Mars" officially aired on July 23, 2012 on Cartoon Network. As part of Cartoon Network's Monday night line up, "Sons of Mars" helped the network show double digit growth in all kid demos for the night, according to Nielsen ratings. The episode first saw physical release as part of the 2013 Jake the Dad DVD, which included 16 episodes from the series' fourth and fifth seasons. It was later re-released as part of the complete fourth season DVD in October 2014.

Oliver Sava of The A.V. Club awarded the episode an "A" and described it as a "big mythology episode" for the series. He called it "a story for long-time fans of Adventure Time" due to its reveal of several important characters like Lincoln and  Grob Gob Glob Grod. Sava felt that the episode was "random" and "incredibly bizarre", but that it gave both a better look at Adventure Times "big picture" as well as the series' "psychedelic panorama of absurdity". Sava specifically applauded the episode's merging of bizarre characters and mundane tasks, such as Grod drawing on an overhead projector, as well as the non sequitur ending featuring the tiny manticore. Gordon Miller of Cinema Sentries called the episode one of the "standouts" of the Jake the Dad DVD, specifically praising the episode's use of Lincoln. Colin O'Boyle of GeekSmash enjoyed the appearance of both Lincoln and the tiny manticore, writing, "That, ladies and gents, is one of the reasons I love Adventure Time".

title: Ambrose Flack

text:
Ambrose J. Flack (March 16, 1902 – April 1, 1980) was an American novelist and short story writer best known for writing the short story "The Strangers That Came To Town".

From the 1930s to 1969, Flack wrote stories and articles for The Saturday Evening Post, The New Yorker, and other publications.   He also authored a teleplay, Make Way for Teddy, and two novels, Family on the Hill (1945) and Room for Mr. Roosevelt (1951).

The Strangers That Came to Town

Flack's signature achievement, "The Strangers That Came to Town" was an early literary examination of bigotry and prejudice in small-town America that pre-dated the similarly-themed To Kill a Mockingbird.  Narrated by a young boy named Andy, the story follows the Duvitch family, Croatian immigrants whose physical appearance the narrator immediately marks as both "foreign" and poor.  Though sicknesses typical of the period (typhoid, whooping cough, measles) and dire poverty afflict the family, they remain kind, optimistic, and surprisingly generous.

The townspeople, however, have trouble looking beyond appearances.  They harangue the Duvitch siblings, taunting them for everything from "the leaf, lard and black bread sandwiches they ate for lunch" to the "rag pickers’ clothes" they wear to school.

After the narrator Andy and his brother Tom poison some fish the Duvitches have caught, making them inedible, their father forces the  boys to confess and administers punishment, part of which is facing their victims and owning up to their crime.  "Father" goes a step further that ultimately eases the tension around the entire community.  "It is high time," Tom and I heard Father say calmly, sanely, to Mother around noon next day when we woke up, "for this senseless feeling against the Duvitches to stop and I'm willing to do still more to stop it.  Tonight we are having supper with them."

In time, the townspeople gradually accept the new arrivals, and the story ends on a note of unexpected generosity.

"On a cold snowy afternoon in winter Mr. Duvitch stopped at our house and presented Father (who had enormous hands, much bigger than any of the Duvitches') with a handsome pair of leather mittens, lined with fur, which had a slightly acrid ashy odor.  'No doubt one of the boys resurrected them from a heap of ashes in the dump,' remarked Father, drawing on the mittens, which fitted perfectly.  'Why should I value them any the less?  Who would have dreamed that the Duvitches would have so much more to offer us than we have to offer them?'"

The story was so popular, it was dramatized in a 1959 television episode of the Loretta Young Show.

Flack and Theodore Roosevelt

Flack reportedly idolized President Theodore Roosevelt, writing the novel Room for Mr. Roosevelt and the teleplay based on it, Make Way for Teddy; and a brief memoir for The New Yorker, Theodore Roosevelt And My Green-Gold Fountain Pen  In the story, a 13-year-old Flack sees Roosevelt watching birds in a Syracuse, New York park, where Flack loses his green-gold fountain pen.  He later sees Roosevelt in the local courthouse and also spies his pen—in the former President's pocket.  Flack never musters the courage to ask for its return, instead visualizing the pen signing important documents.

Roosevelt's biographers often cite the unusual story, including Colonel Roosevelt author Edmund Morris, who called it an "enchanting reminiscence."

Personal life

Little has been recorded or written about Flack's personal life.  He was born in Syracuse, New York, and wrote about poverty in that part of the country, most notably in stories about the fictional Otter Family.

He was an avid gardener who developed a long relationship with Katharine Sergeant Angell White, a founding editor of The New Yorker.

Flack died in the Bronx, New York at age 78.

title: Invisible (Hunter Hayes song)

text:
"Invisible" is a song recorded by American country music artist Hunter Hayes.  It was the lead single from his second studio album Storyline (2014). Hayes co-wrote the song in a collaboration with Bonnie Baker and Katrina Elam, while the production was handled by Hayes and Dann Huff. The song was debuted at the 2014 Grammy Awards on January 26, 2014, and was released to digital retailers the same day.

Background
Hayes wrote this song about the bullying that he experienced while growing up. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Hayes said, "To me it's also just about being misunderstood. Just me being in high school, just the smallest scale I know compared to a lot of stories that I've heard, a lot of people that I've met ... yes, I was a total geek, I was a total nerd, and you know, I still am, and I'm proud of that. But it took me a while to realize that it's OK to be proud of that, right? Because in that time and period of my life, if you didn't fit in, what else was there? Fortunately for me I had incredible parents, I had an incredible support system, musicians around me, and that showed me that there was hope -- that there was maybe something else I could look forward to."

Music video
The music video was directed by Ray Kay and premiered on March 13, 2014.

Critical reception
The song received generally positive reviews. Billy Dukes of Taste of Country called the song a "complex and satisfying expression" of vulnerability, and praised Hayes for choosing a song with a personal message for his big Grammy moment. Markos Papadatos of Digital Journal was complimentary of both the "emotional, powerful and inspirational" lyrics as well as Hayes' conviction, noting that the song indicates growth and maturity over Hayes' debut.

Brian Braiker of The Guardian was less favorable, saying that "the song is anodyne, safe and bland. It’ll do fine." Grady Smith of Entertainment Weekly was also unfavorable, giving the song a "C+" and saying that "His anti-bullying ballad is overbearing, preachy, and perhaps worst of all, boring. If you're gonna write popular music's 457th song about self-esteem, at least don't make it pander to every last cliché."

Live performances
Hayes performed the song live at the 56th Annual Grammy Awards. Entertainment Weekly also graded this performance "C+", with Nick Catucci writing that Hayes "provided the first down moment of the night with a saccharine new song" and that his performance was "most notable for the inspirational quotes from the likes of John Lennon and, uh, Steve Jobs, Lady Gaga, and Johnny Depp projected behind him".

title: Coliboaia Cave

text:
Coliboaia Cave (, ) is located in Apuseni Natural Park, Câmpani, Bihor County, Romania. It may contain the oldest known cave paintings of Central Europe, radiocarbon dated to 32,000 and 35,000 years BP,  corresponding to the Aurignacian and Gravettian cultures of the Paleolithic period.

Research history
The Coliboaia Cave was first mentioned in literature before 1900, but only in 1981 was it extensively investigated by Gabor Halasi. The cave was not widely known until September 2009, when prehistoric mural cave paintings were discovered. It was quickly put under protection by the Romanian Federation of Speleology.

Location and access
Situated on a western slope of the Sigheştel Valley, the cave sits at an altitude of . It has a medium-sized entrance and a portal that is oriented from east to west. To access the so-called Art Gallery, cave divers must pass a great chamber, natural lake, and main gallery. The Art Gallery itself is seven meters above ground.

Drawings
The drawings in the Art Gallery are representations of animals, done in black and likely with charcoal. Some of the animals depicted include bison, bears, and rhinoceros, while the subject of other drawings remains unknown. The images are on both walls of the cave and do not appear to have any type of symmetrical pattern.

On the right wall, there is a drawing of a bison. The picture is  above the ground and executed in bluish-gray lines. On the left side, an illustration of a rhinoceros head is  above the floor. A consistent element to these drawings is that they only represent the heads of animals.

Dating
The age of the pictures is being debated. Archaeologists’ estimates vary, but fall within the Middle Paleolithic, in between 35,000 and 23,000 BCE, which corresponds to the Aurignacian culture (35,000 to 29,000 years ago) and the Gravettian culture (29,000 to 22,000 years ago).  However, the fact that cave bears and rhinos were scarce during those two time periods, makes this dating controversial. Furthermore, the drawings do not appear to be completely uniform. This suggests they were not all done at the same time. . A more recent paper makes a more accurate dating, using method 14C: 26,605 ÷ 36,324 cal. BP.
