title: Hassan Hassanzadeh Amoli

text:
Ḥasan Ḥasan-zādih Ãmulī (: 10 February, 1929 – 25 September, 2021) was an Iranian Shi'ite theologian known for his mystical tendencies and Islamic philosophy. He was among clerics who overcomed the traditional opposition to teaching philosophy courses at Shi'ite seminaries. He wrote many books in philosophy, mysticism, mathematics, astronomy, Persian and Arabic literature.He interpreted the Islamic philosophical tradition in a similar way to Mulla Sadra, which is a reconciliation of religion, reason and mysticism. His books include Sharh fusus al-hikam, Tashih nahj al-balagha, Insan dar 'urf-i 'irfan, Tashih kalila wa dimna.

He died on Saturday, 25 September 2021, at the age of 93. Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei offered prayers on his body. Hassanzadeh Amoli was elected as a "Immortal figures of Iran" in 2003.

Hassanzadeh-Amoli was father-in-law of Iranian conservative politician Baqer Larijani.

Biography
Allameh was born on February 12, 1928, in the village of Ira of Larijan and in 1944 he started to study in the Islamic seminary.

At the age of 22, he went to Tehran to continue his studies in 1950, and had teachers such as Ayatollah Agha Seyyed Ahmad Lavasani, Allameh Sha'rani, and in Marvi school, Allameh Haj Mirza Abolhassan Sha'rani Tehrani, Allameh Rafiei Qazvini, Ayatollah Ghomshei, Ayatollah Mohammad Taghi Amoli, Hakim Mohammad Hossein Fazel Toni, Ayatollah Haj Mirza Ahmad Ashtiani.

During these years, he studied interpretation, mathematics, astronomy, medicine. In 1963, he went to Qom and began teaching, and at the same time was a student of Allameh Tabatabai for 17 years. He also attended the philosophical and mystical lectures of Sayyid Muhammad Hasan Ilahi. Hasanzada speaks highly of these lectures, attributing part of his moral influence to them. He also studied with Sayyid Mahdi Qadi Tabataba'i, the son of Sayyid 'Ali Qadi Tabataba'i, who was an expert in Occult Sciences, philosophy, and mysticism.

Hassanzadeh Amoli considers the Qur'an as the source of divine knowledge. He believes that Nahj al-Balaghah, Sahifa al-Sajadiyya, Usul Kafi, Bihar al-Anwar and other narrative collections are rooted in the Qur'an and are expositions of the Qur'an. According to him, the sayings of the infallible Imams stem from the Qur'an.

According to Hassanzadeh, the Qur'an, philosophy and mysticism are not separate from each other. He considers the truth of religion and mysticism as one, and that is the knowledge of God.

title: Dolly Niemiec

text:
Dolly Niemiec (May 27, 1931 – September 22, 2018) was an American baseball player who played in the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League between 1948 and 1952. She both batted and threw right-handed.

Early baseball beginnings
Dolly learned how to play baseball—like a lot of her peers—from the boys with whom she grew up in her Chicago neighborhood, running around outside getting dirty and bruised just like all the boys were used to doing.  She earned the nickname "Dolly Gopher" because when playing softball with her father, he would say "Dolly, go for this ball. Go for that ball."

She recalled how the neighborhood boys would "play in a huge lot behind a factory.  We used sickles to cut the grass and cardboard boxes for the bases. Then we put big rocks on them so that they wouldn’t blow away.”.  Of the boys she played with she recalls, "their sisters had the most beautiful dolls.I had the most beautiful bats and balls."

One day, when she was 15 years old, Dolly's father came across a newspaper article about tryouts in a women's baseball league.  Her first reaction however was "girls don't play baseball."  It wasn't that she believed that girls couldn't play baseball, she just wasn't aware of any who did.

Despite this, she came along to the field and was "amazed" at how many women she saw there.  She said that she "thought [she] was the only girl in the city who played baseball."

Dolly's professional baseball career
Dolly played second base and third base for the Chicago Colleens (in 1948), the Springfield Sallies (in 1949), the Battle Creek Belles (in 1951), and between 1950 and 1952, the Grand Rapids Chicks. After making it in the minor leagues, Dolly joined the 1949 barnstorming tour that allocated minor league players to the major league. She began with the New Orleans tour, then to Florida and up the East Coast.

After baseball
In 1952, an auto accident resulted in Dolly's early retirement.  Following that, she became a professional bowler, coaching her sons' Little League teams, as well as being an umpire for high school baseball and softball games.

A league of their own
When the movie was released in 1992, Dolly actually  had a role in it.  Regarding the movie that starred Madonna, Dolly says: "Madonna was great. She was in the outfield changing into spikes, I asked her to sign a visor for me and she did.  The entire experience of that movie changed my life for the better."

Dolly died on September 22, 2018.

title: Hishaku

text:
A hishaku (柄杓) is a tool for scooping water or soup native to Japan. It has a vessel shape with a handle.

Overview
Hishaku are generally made of curved objects with handles. In ancient times, they were made of gourd.

Originally, the name "hishaku" was derived from "hisako," which refers to the bottle gourd used since ancient times for scooping water, which became "hisaku" and then "hishaku", and then the kanji were chosen by folk etymology. It is also written with the single kanji 斗.

At chōzuya (place for washing hands and rinsing mouths to purify body and soul), hishaku are made of wood or bambuseaes, but there are many different sizes and materials depending on the use and purpose, and some are made of metal or plastic.

The hishaku used for tea ceremony is different in size and length from the general hishaku.

In culture

 When a Funayūrei appears, it is said that one be saved by handing it a hishaku with a loose bottom.
 A hishaku with a loose bottom is also used for praying for easy childbirth. It is said to mean that the baby will be born as easily as the water drains away.
 Izumo-taisha uses a hishaku made of raw gourd cut into a semicircle with a hemp handle for the offering of sacred water at the Tsume-peeling Festival. This is said to be related to the spiritual power of gourd and hemp.

title: St Ursula's Church, Bern

text:
St Ursula's Church, Bern is an Anglican Episcopal church in Bern, Switzerland.

The church is one of the ten Anglican chaplaincies in Switzerland that have a resident chaplain (minister) and together form the Archdeaconry of Switzerland. St Ursula's has a long tradition of ministry to all English-speaking people in the Canton of Bern and beyond. It also provides a home for Christians from many different denominations and cultural backgrounds.

History

19th Century

Between 1832 and 1847, the Chaplain from Christ Church, Lausanne held 21 services in Bern at the invitation of the British minister. These were probably held at the British Legation.

Hoteliers throughout Switzerland were eager to offer facilities for worship. In 1845, the Bernese authorities gave permission for English services to be held in the chapel of the Bürgerspital. A group of innkeepers undertook to pay the cost of bringing a chaplain from England. Twelve years later, the former deer-park outside the city walls was sold for redevelopment. The Cantonal Forestry department made a grant of land at the top of Hirschengraben for building an English church. Plans were drawn up in 1858 by the influential English architect, George Edmund Street, but although the community raised Fr 8454.50 towards the construction, this was not enough, and the grant was revoked.

In 1859, the Colonial and Continental Church Society undertook to support a chaplain in Bern. In 1887, funding was taken over by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel. Services were held for a while in the Old Catholic church of St Peter and St Paul, but there were complications due to the bitterness felt by Roman Catholics against the Old Catholic movement, which spilled over into the diplomatic field. It was fortunate that the congregation moved in 1887 to the hall of the Lerber School (now the Freies Gymnasium) in Nageligasse.

The city authorities offered St Anthony's Chapel (the Antonierkirche in Postgasse, at the time being used as a fire brigade storehouse) to the Anglican church in 1889. The architect Reginald Blomfield (best remembered today as architect of the Menin Gate in Ypres) reported favourably on the opportunity. Despite the enthusiasm of the proprietor of the Hotel Bernerhof, and of Bishop Wilkinson, the offer failed for lack of financial support. Permission was given for services to be held in the cathedral (or, if service times clashed, in the French church), but the church did not act on this offer. Services continued to be held in the Lerberschule.

Construction
Bern began to expand on the other side of the River Aare, and in 1881, the English-Bern Land Company bought the area of Kirchenfeld, getting permission to develop it on condition that they build a bridge spanning the Aare to link it to the city centre. At their meeting on 14 June 1904, the Directors, "being very anxious to meet the wishes of the promoters of the Church", offered a central site in their development at Jubiläumsplatz on condition that money for funding a church be provided by the end of 1905.

An appeal fund had already been set up. However, by July 1904, only Fr 13318.50 of the hoped-for Fr 25000 had been raised. An intensive campaign was launched to raise the remainder, which was reckoned as the equivalent of £468, a considerable sum at the time. (Prospective donors were reminded that "the few resident English people pay for a clergyman which costs them £95 per annum, and cannot do more.")

A wealthy American episcopalian, Mrs John Castleman from St Louis, Missouri, came to Bern with her adopted daughter, who was to have an operation at the clinic of Dr Theodor Kocher. There she met the mother of the then Chaplain, Gilbert Sissons, who was having a similar operation. Both made near-miraculous recoveries, and as a thank offering, Mrs Castleman donated a large sum for the building of the church.

The application for building permission was published by the "English-American Church" in  November 1905 and the land was transferred to the SPG on 16 January 1906. The church was designed to seat a hundred people. It was completed in only a few months, and was ready in the spring of 1906. The architects were Eduard Rybi and Ernst Salchli.

The church was consecrated on Thursday, 20 September 1906 by the Coadjutor Bishop for North and Central Europe, Edward Wilkinson, in the presence of Ludwig Forrer, the President of the Confederation, and of Sir George Bonham, the British Minister to Switzerland.

Maintaining the church represented a considerable expense for members of the congregation. Funds were also established for an "east" window, dedicated by Bishop Herbert Bury in memory of Cecil Bonham at the end of 1911. There was a bell fund, and a fence fund (for one of the conditions on which the land was given was the construction of a substantial fence, which was to cost Fr. 5000). A fund was also established to buy a permanent house for the chaplain. Richard Pring, writing in 1912, remarked that even when the new Lötschberg railway had been opened, and the Bellevue and Schweizerhof Hotels reopened, the chaplain's income was unlikely to exceed £130 or £150 a year, "and that, without a house, especially for a married man, is totally inadequate." He hoped that a house would soon be built, so that "Berne may no longer be looked upon as quite one of most underpaid chaplaincies on the Continent."

In 1914, the church received a grant of Fr 1752.30 from SPG, and 29 individual subscriptions added Fr 1690. Collections totalled Fr 3079.70. Out of this, the church had to fund the chaplain's stipend, which amounted to Fr 4432.50 (the equivalent then of £180). The remainder went to pay the cleaner, the gardener, and the expenses of running the church.

The chaplain at the time lived in the Pension Herter in Kramgasse. Although a Vicarage Fund existed (amounting in 1914 to Fr 435 (or £17)), successive chaplains found their own accommodation up until 1956 (latterly at Kirchenfeldstrasse 50, adjacent to the church). The Bell Fund and the Sanctuary Fund were regarded as more important. (The bell was cast in 1918 by the firm of Rüetschi in Aarau.)

The last 100 years

During the First World War, the church was sometimes filled to overflowing. However, in the interwar years, the congregation seldom exceeded 30, and consisted largely of Anglo-Swiss families, with a small representation from the diplomatic community. (A notable event was in 1922, when General Booth of the Salvation Army visited.) The permanent English-speaking population of Bern was relatively small between the wars.

As part of the Coronation celebrations in 1953, the church community had already started an ambitious campaign to raise Fr 120000 to build a hall and adjacent house for the chaplain. The city architectural department gave support and advice, but part of the plan involved the city's education department using the hall during the week. This was contrary to the covenants which the Bern Land Company had given the church's neighbours when the church was originally built, that the land would only be used for a church. After a public inquiry, the city withdrew its plans to use the hall, and permission was given. Preliminary building work was completed in 1956, but the final structure was only finished in January 1960.

After the evening service on Tuesday, 21 September 1976, an electric heater was left on. At 6.45 the next day, the organ burst into flames, and although the fire brigade was called promptly, the damage was considerable.

A change in tax legislation in 1991 made a windfall sum available for additional building work. As a result, the church hall was extended in 1992–4, and other church buildings were improved.

A focus for English-speaking Christians

St Ursula's is a strongly ecumenical church, and this is reflected in its membership. St Ursula's is also a member of the Council of Churches in Bern.

Worship is an important priority. Around 80 people come to the main Eucharist service at 10.00 on Sunday mornings. Services follow the Church of England's Common Worship Order One. The main service on the second Sunday of the month is more informal, aiming to cater for a wider range of people.

Outreach, prayer, study and pastoral care form other important parts of the ministry, as well as support the work of Christ through a charity and mission team. There is a Junior Church and an active Youth Group.

title: Seasons of War

text:
Seasons of War is the first film directed by Seda Eğridere. The script was written by Eğridere and Mark Harley. Production for Seasons of War took place in Sarajevo in July 2014, and the film was scheduled to premiere at the 2015 Sarajevo Film Festival.

Background
Work on Seasons of War commenced in 2014. The film's plot was conceived by director Seda Eğridere while she was traveling in the Balkans and Bulgaria to research the history of her family during the 1950s through 1970s. Drawing parallels between her family experience and the experiences of local Sarajevans in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Seda Eğridere wrote the script for Seasons of War with writing partner Mark Harley. The script is based on true events of the Bosnian War.

Production
Production took place in Sarajevo over the course of three weeks in July 2014. Eğridere cast only actors from the former Yugoslavia, most of whom had lived through the war and were therefore able to incorporate their experiences into their performances. Film production was delayed due to the 2014 Southeast Europe floods. In response to the tragedy, Eğridere called on fans via Twitter and Facebook to aid in flood relief by donating funds through the film's Indiegogo campaign. Before production started, comparisons were drawn between Seasons of War and Angelina Jolie's directorial debut, In the Land of Blood and Honey. In response to these comparisons, Eğridere conveyed that she respected Jolie's film and her work as both a director and scriptwriter, but stressed that Seasons of War was a completely different story; not a war film, but rather a film about a couple and the difficult choices they were forced to make.

Soundtrack
The complete soundtrack of Seasons of War was arranged by Yasin Aydın and Kemal Eren of the Turkish rock band PUL, with which Eğridere had collaborated on a music video in 2012.

title: Software Process simulation

text:
Software process simulation modelling:
Like any simulation, software process simulation (SPS) is the numerical evaluation of a mathematical model that imitates the behavior of the software development process being modeled. SPS has the ability to model the dynamic nature of software development and handle the uncertainty and randomness inherent in it.

Uses of software process simulation
Following main purposes have been proposed for SPS:
 Support in operational project management (estimation, planning and control)
 Support for strategic management
 Tool for training and education for software project management and software development lifecycle (c.f. and).
 Process improvement and technology adoption

How to do software process simulation
Software process simulation starts with identifying a question that we want to answer. The question could be, for example, related to assessment of an alternative, incorporating a new practice in the software development process. Introducing such changes in the actual development process will be expensive and if the consequences of change are not positive the implications can be dire for the organization. Thus, through the use of simulation we attempt to get an initial assessment of such changes on the model instead of an active development project.
Based on this problem description an appropriate scope of the process is chosen. A simulation approach is chosen to model the development process. Such a model is then calibrated using empirical data and then used to conduct simulation based investigations. A detailed description of each step in general can be found in Balci's work, and in particular for software process simulation a comprehensive overview can be found in Ali et al.

In a recent initiative, by ACM special interest group on software engineering (SIGSOFT), a standard for assessing simulation-based scientific studies has been proposed.

Examples of using software process simulation for practical issues in industrial settings
 Process assessment: Enabling dynamic analysis in value stream mapping in industrial settings
 Software Testing: Deciding when to automate software testing

Key venues
Software process simulation has been an active research area for many decades some of the key venues include the International Conference on Software and Systems Process and its predecessor Workshop on Software Process Simulation Modeling (ProSim) from 1998-2004.

title: Westwijk tram stop

text:
Westwijk is a tram stop serving the neighborhood of Westwijk in the city of Amstelveen, Netherlands. It is the southern terminus of tram line 25, dubbed the Amsteltram before it received its line number. It opened officially on 13 December 2020, unofficially 4 days earlier on 9 December.

History
Westwijk was earlier the former terminus of metro line 51, a hybrid metro/sneltram (light rail) service, that opened to Westwijk in 2004. Like a metro, the sneltram used high-level platforms. Metro service south of Amsterdam Zuid station was closed in 2019 to lower platforms to accommodate the new low-floor trams for line 25.

When the 2004 extension of metro line 51 was built, it used  of the roadbed of the scrapped BovenkerkUithoorn railway line, one of the former Haarlemmermeer railway lines. The section of the line on which the Westwijk and Sacharovlaan stops sit was opened in 1915 and was in use as a railway line until 1950. The Haarlemmermeer railway's Legmeerpolder station was just south of the Westwijk stop at  J.C. van Hattumweg. Today the dwelling for the station's level crossing guard (baanwachter) exists today on the east side of the tram tracks, north of  J.C. van Hattumweg.

title: F1 2014 (video game)

text:
F1 2014 is a racing video game based on the 2014 Formula One season developed and published by Codemasters. Despite releasing during the lifespan of eighth-generation consoles PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, the game was released on seventh-generation consoles PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 instead, in addition to a release on Microsoft Windows. F1 2014 is the last F1 game to be released in September/October, releasing during the latter month.

Features
The game features the initial driver line-ups from the 2014 season. Substitute drivers Will Stevens and André Lotterer were not included in the game, as they both only raced once during the 2014 season. Furthermore, all races feature full grids of 22 drivers - in the real-life season, the Marussia team were absent for the final three races of the season due to financial difficulties whilst Caterham also missed two races towards the end of the season due to financial difficulties before returning for the final round in Abu Dhabi. The game features the new turbo-hybrid cars introduced in the 2014 season, as well as the team and driver line-ups. All of the 2014 Formula One tracks are featured, including new additions like the Red Bull Ring, Hockenheimring, the brand-new Sochi Autodrom, and Bahrain in night conditions.

The game allows players to choose any team to drive for at the start of Career Mode, rather than forcing the player to start at a team lower down the grid, as in previous titles. Also unlike previous titles, the Career Mode allows players to choose from three different season lengths: seven races, 12 races or the full 19 races. The game also features a new driver evaluation test, and the Scenario Mode has been improved. The game does not feature Classic Content, a feature from the game's predecessor which allowed users to drive historic Formula One cars around historic tracks.

This was the last game in the series to use red flag mechanics, until it was reintroduced in F1 23.

Reception
  F1 2014 received "mixed or average" reviews, according to video game review aggregator Metacritic. Reviewers praised the new feel of the 2014 turbo-hybrid cars, the graphics, the racing action and some new features that made the game more accessible, but criticism of the lack of new major features and the removal of the classic content from the previous game resulted in mixed reviews.

Game Revolution gave the game a positive review with a rating of 4.5 out of 5, stating that its "authentic, fun racing balances accessibility and simulation well", and that "a focus shift from history and F1 melodrama to races alone is a welcome change". They also praised the graphics, calling them "superb for PS3/Xbox 360, with impressive weather effects".

The game received a mixed review from Eurogamer, rating it 5 out of 10, citing lack of new features and an uninspiring career mode. They also declared "it's a quantifiable step back for the series, saved only by the fact that what's there remains a satisfactory companion piece to this year's season if you're fortunate enough to have a decent steering wheel".

Hardcore Gamer gave the game a 4 out of 5, saying "F1 2014 plays to its strengths and doesn't get bogged down with clutter. While classic F1 races can't be recreated this year, the career mode is a far more diverse and enjoyable experience. The racing action is more intense than ever before, leading this to be one of most enjoyable F1 games ever created".

PC Gamer rated the game 67 out of 100, concluding that "with its fundamentals unchanged and last years foray into classic cars removed, F1 2014 provides very little beyond a perfunctory car and track update". They criticised the lack of new major features, sarcastically commenting that "on the back of F1 2014's box under 'new features', there may as well be a picture of a man shrugging apologetically".

title: Weinberg Tunnel

text:
The Weinberg Tunnel () is a railway tunnel in the Swiss city of Zürich. The tunnel runs from the western approaches to Zürich Hauptbahnhof railway station, east under the station and city centre before turning north and surfacing on the southern approach to Zürich Oerlikon railway station, and allows trains running between east and west to pass through Zürich without reversal. It includes a new set of underground platforms at Zürich Hauptbahnhof, and carries twin standard gauge () tracks electrified at 15 kV AC 16 2/3 Hz using overhead catenary.

The tunnel was opened on 14 June 2014, and forms part of the Altstetten–Zürich–Oerlikon cross-city line, also known as the Durchmesserlinie Zürich, which also includes new elevated approach tracks from Altstetten to Zürich Hauptbahnhof, and the rebuilding of Oerlikon station with two additional tracks and platforms. At Zürich Hauptbahnhof, the tunnel serves a pair of underground island platforms, with four platform tracks, numbered as Hauptbahnhof tracks 31 to 34 but sometimes referred to as Löwenstrasse station. These platforms are linked to the station's other platforms and facilities, both underground and surface, by a complex of subways and shopping malls.

The Weinberg Tunnel is one of three  different routes from Oerlikon to Hauptbahnhof, each of which tunnels through the intermediate ridge. Unlike the Weinberg Tunnel, the other two, the Wipkingen Tunnel and the Käferberg Tunnel, both connect to the Hauptbahnhof's western approaches. All three tunnels emerge from adjacent portals to the south of Oerlikon station.

The tunnel is used by both long-distance passenger trains and by suburban trains on Zürich S-Bahn lines S2, S8 and S14. From December 2015, when the full Altstetten–Zürich–Oerlikon cross-city line is planned to open, it is expected that the line will be served by 460 trains per day, comprising 320 S-Bahn services and 140 long-distance services.

Along its route, the Weinberg tunnel passes under several other tunnels, including the Hirschengraben rail tunnel that links Zürich Hauptbahnhof and Zürich Stadelhofen stations, the now disused Letten rail tunnel, and the Milchbuck road tunnel.

title: 341st Division (Vietnam)

text:
The 341st Infantry Division is a division of the People's Army of Vietnam, first formed in the 1960s.

Vietnam War
U.S. intelligence indicated that the Division was operating in the Vietnamese Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) by August 1966.

In mid-May 1968 the Division was the target of Operation Mameluke Thrust launched by the 1st Marine Division in the Happy Valley area southwest of Danang, however the Division did not engage the Marines.

In 1974 the Division was converted from a training division to a mobile division part of the PAVN strategic reserve and stationed in souther Military Region 4 immediately north of the DMZ.

During the 1975 Spring Offensive, on 4 March the Division attacked Định Quán District, cleared Route 20 and captured Lâm Đồng Province.

In early April the Division joined PAVN 4th Corps and on 9 April 1975, 4th Corps attacked the Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN) 18th Division around the strategic city of Xuân Lộc part of the last defensive line before Saigon. The Division suffered 1,100 casualties on 9 and 10 April.The 18th Division withstood the initial PAVN attacks and on 12 April were reinforced by men of the elite 1st Airborne Brigade and Vietnamese Marines. By 16 April the battle was turning in favour of the PAVN and on 19 April the ARVN General Staff ordered the units defending Xuân Lộc to withdraw to defend Biên Hòa. On the afternoon of 22 April the Division's headquarters near Xuân Lộc was hit by a CBU-55 bomb dropped from a Republic of Vietnam Air Force C-130, killing over 250 soldiers. The 4th Corps pushed on towards Biên Hòa and at 5pm on 26 April they attacked Bien Hoa Air Base and Long Bình. By the morning of April 28 troops from the 4th Corps overran ARVN positions at the eastern end of the Newport Bridge.

title: Dutch record progression track cycling – Women's team pursuit

text:
This is an overview of the progression of the Dutch track cycling record of the women's team pursuit.

The women's 3000m team pursuit track cycling discipline was introduced by the UCI at the 2007–08 track cycling season. The Dutch team consisting of Ellen van Dijk, Marlijn Binnendijk and Yvonne Hijgenaar rode the team pursuit for the first time at round 4 at the 2007–08 UCI Track Cycling World Cup in Copenhagen in a time of 3:36.901 (49.792 km/h). They broke the record later that day. After have ridden the team pursuit for the first time, the record has been broken nine times. Ellen van Dijk is the only woman who always has been part of the squad when a record was broken. The current record was settled during the 2012 Summer Olympics by Ellen van Dijk, Kirsten Wild and Vera Koedooder in a time of 3:20.013 (53.996 km/h) on 4 August 2012. After the 2011–12 track cycling season the UCI changed the discipline into a 4000 m team pursuit with 4 riders.

Progression

3000 m team pursuit with three riders (2007–2012)

4000 m team pursuit with four riders (from 2012)
After 2012 Ellen van Dijk stopped riding on the track, focussing on the road. Because Van Dijk was the most important rider for the team and because the team needs an addition rider, the national coach and technical director decided not to have a Dutch women's team pursuit team. For that reason there is not yet an official 4000 m team pursuit national record.

title: P-group generation algorithm

text:
In mathematics, specifically group theory, finite groups of prime power order , for a fixed prime number  and varying integer exponents , are briefly called finite p-groups.

The p-group generation algorithm by M. F. Newman

and E. A. O'Brien

is a recursive process for constructing the descendant tree
of an assigned finite p-group which is taken as the root of the tree.

Lower exponent-p central series
For a finite p-group , the lower exponent-p central series (briefly lower p-central series) of
is a descending series  of characteristic subgroups of ,
defined recursively by

 and , for .

Since any non-trivial finite p-group  is nilpotent,
there exists an integer  such that
and  is called the exponent-p class (briefly p-class) of .
Only the trivial group  has .
Generally, for any finite p-group ,
its p-class can be defined as .

The complete lower p-central series of  is therefore given by

,

since  is the Frattini subgroup of .

For the convenience of the reader and for pointing out the shifted numeration, we recall that
the (usual) lower central series of  is also a descending series  of characteristic subgroups of ,
defined recursively by

 and , for .

As above, for any non-trivial finite p-group ,
there exists an integer  such that
and  is called the nilpotency class of ,
whereas  is called the index of nilpotency of .
Only the trivial group  has .

The complete lower central series of  is given by

,

since  is the commutator subgroup or derived subgroup of .

The following Rules should be remembered for the exponent-p class:

Let  be a finite p-group.

 Rule: , since the  descend more quickly than the .
 Rule: If , for some group , then , for any .
 Rule: For any , the conditions  and  imply .
 Rule: Let . If , then , for all , in particular, , for all .

Parents and descendant trees
The parent  of a finite non-trivial p-group  with exponent-p class
is defined as the quotient  of  by the last non-trivial term  of the lower exponent-p central series of .
Conversely, in this case,  is called an immediate descendant of .
The p-classes of parent and immediate descendant are connected by .

A descendant tree is a hierarchical structure
for visualizing parent-descendant relations
between isomorphism classes of finite p-groups.
The vertices of a descendant tree are isomorphism classes of finite p-groups.
However, a vertex will always be labelled by selecting a representative of the corresponding isomorphism class.
Whenever a vertex  is the parent of a vertex
a directed edge of the descendant tree is defined by
in the direction of the canonical projection  onto the quotient .

In a descendant tree, the concepts of parents and immediate descendants can be generalized.
A vertex  is a descendant of a vertex ,
and  is an ancestor of ,
if either  is equal to
or there is a path

, where ,

of directed edges from  to .
The vertices forming the path necessarily coincide with the iterated parents  of , with :

, where .

They can also be viewed as the successive quotients  of p-class  of
when the p-class of  is given by :

, where .

In particular, every non-trivial finite p-group  defines a maximal path (consisting of  edges)

ending in the trivial group .
The last but one quotient of the maximal path of  is the elementary abelian p-group  of rank ,
where  denotes the generator rank of .

Generally, the descendant tree  of a vertex  is the subtree of all descendants of , starting at the root .
The maximal possible descendant tree  of the trivial group  contains all finite p-groups and is exceptional,
since the trivial group  has all the infinitely many elementary abelian p-groups with varying generator rank  as its immediate descendants.
However, any non-trivial finite p-group (of order divisible by ) possesses only finitely many immediate descendants.

p-covering group, p-multiplicator and nucleus
Let  be a finite p-group with  generators.
Our goal is to compile a complete list of pairwise non-isomorphic immediate descendants of .
It turns out that all immediate descendants can be obtained as quotients of a certain extension  of
which is called the p-covering group of  and can be constructed in the following manner.

We can certainly find a presentation of  in the form of an exact sequence

,

where  denotes the free group with  generators and  is an epimorphism with kernel .
Then  is a normal subgroup of  consisting of the defining relations for .
For elements  and ,
the conjugate  and thus also the commutator  are contained in .
Consequently,  is a characteristic subgroup of ,
and the p-multiplicator  of  is an elementary abelian p-group, since

.

Now we can define the p-covering group of  by

,

and the exact sequence

shows that  is an extension of  by the elementary abelian p-multiplicator.
We call

the p-multiplicator rank of .

Let us assume now that the assigned finite p-group  is of p-class .
Then the conditions  and  imply , according to the rule (R3),
and we can define the nucleus of  by

as a subgroup of the p-multiplicator.
Consequently, the nuclear rankof  is bounded from above by the p-multiplicator rank.

Allowable subgroups of the p-multiplicator
As before, let  be a finite p-group with  generators.Proposition.Any p-elementary abelian central extension

of
by a p-elementary abelian subgroup  such that
is a quotient of the p-covering group  of .

For the proof click show on the right hand side.

The reason is that, since , there exists an epimorphism  such that
, where  denotes the canonical projection.
Consequently, we have

and thus .
Further, , since  is p-elementary,
and , since  is central.
Together this shows that
and thus  induces the desired epimorphism
such that .

In particular, an immediate descendant  of  is a p-elementary abelian central extension

of ,
since

 implies  and ,

where .Definition.A subgroup  of the p-multiplicator of  is called allowableif it is given by the kernel  of an epimorphism
onto an immediate descendant  of .

An equivalent characterization is that  is a proper subgroup which supplements the nucleus.

Therefore, the first part of our goal to compile a list of all immediate descendants of  is done,
when we have constructed all allowable subgroups of  which supplement the nucleus ,
where .
However, in general the list

,

where ,
will be redundant,
due to isomorphisms  among the immediate descendants.

Orbits under extended automorphisms
Two allowable subgroups  and  are called equivalent if the quotients ,
that are the corresponding immediate descendants of , are isomorphic.

Such an isomorphism  between immediate descendants of  with  has the property that

and thus induces an automorphism  of
which can be extended to an automorphism  of the p-covering group of .
The restriction of this  extended automorphism  to the p-multiplicator  of  is determined uniquely by .

Since ,
each extended automorphism  induces a permutation  of the allowable subgroups .
We define  to be the permutation group generated by all permutations induced by automorphisms of .
Then the map ,  is an epimorphism
and the equivalence classes of allowable subgroups  are precisely the orbits of allowable subgroups under the action of the permutation group .

Eventually, our goal to compile a list  of all immediate descendants of  will be done,
when we select a representative  for each of the  orbits of allowable subgroups of  under the action of . This is precisely what the p-group generation algorithm does in a single step of the recursive procedure for constructing the descendant tree of an assigned root.

Capable p-groups and step sizes
A finite p-group  is called capable (or extendable) if it possesses at least one immediate descendant, otherwise it is terminal (or a leaf). The nuclear rank  of  admits a decision about the capability of :
  is terminal if and only if .
  is capable if and only if .
In the case of capability,  has immediate descendants of  different step sizes , in dependence on the index  of the corresponding allowable subgroup  in the p-multiplicator . When  is of order , then an immediate descendant of step size  is of order  .

For the related phenomenon of multifurcation of a descendant tree at a vertex  with nuclear rank  see the article on descendant trees.

The p-group generation algorithm provides the flexibility to restrict the construction of immediate descendants to those of a single fixed step size , which is very convenient in the case of huge descendant numbers (see the next section).

Numbers of immediate descendants
We denote the number of all immediate descendants, resp. immediate descendants of step size , of  by , resp. . Then we have .
As concrete examples, we present some interesting finite metabelian p-groups with extensive sets of immediate descendants, using the SmallGroups identifiers and additionally pointing out the numbers  of capable immediate descendants in the usual format  as given by actual implementations of the p''-group generation algorithm in the computer algebra systems GAP and MAGMA.

First, let .

We begin with groups having abelianization of type .
See Figure 4 in the article on descendant trees.
 The group  of coclass  has ranks ,  and descendant numbers , .
 The group  of coclass  has ranks ,  and descendant numbers , .
 One of its immediate descendants, the group , has ranks ,  and descendant numbers , .

In contrast, groups with abelianization of type  are partially located beyond the limit of computability.
 The group  of coclass  has ranks ,  and descendant numbers , .
 The group  of coclass  has ranks ,  and descendant numbers ,  unknown.
 The group  of coclass  has ranks ,  and descendant numbers ,  unknown.

Next, let .

Corresponding groups with abelianization of type  have bigger descendant numbers than for .
 The group  of coclass  has ranks ,  and descendant numbers , .
 The group  of coclass  has ranks ,  and descendant numbers , .

Schur multiplier
Via the isomorphism ,
the quotient group
can be viewed as the additive analogue of the multiplicative group  of all roots of unity.

Let  be a prime number and  be a finite p-group with presentation  as in the previous section.
Then the second cohomology group  of the -module
is called the Schur multiplier of . It can also be interpreted as the quotient group .

I. R. Shafarevich
has proved that the difference between the relation rank  of
and the generator rank  of  is given by the minimal number of generators of the Schur multiplier of ,
that is .

N. Boston and H. Nover
have shown that ,
for all quotients  of p-class , ,
of a pro-p group  with finite abelianization .

Furthermore, J. Blackhurst (in the appendix On the nucleus of certain p-groups of a paper by N. Boston, M. R. Bush and F. Hajir
)
has proved that a non-cyclic finite p-group  with trivial Schur multiplier
is a terminal vertex in the descendant tree  of the trivial group ,
that is,   .

Examples
 A finite p-group  has a balanced presentation  if and only if , that is, if and only if its Schur multiplier  is trivial. Such a group is called a Schur group and it must be a leaf in the descendant tree .
A finite p''-group  satisfies  if and only if , that is, if and only if it has a non-trivial cyclic Schur multiplier . Such a group is called a Schur+1 group.

title: Larson F-12 Baby

text:
The Larson F-12 Baby was a single engine, single seat sports biplane built in the US in the early 1960s. It was intended to produce it ready to fly or homebuilt from kits or plans but only one was completed.

Design and development
The Baby was a single bay biplane with stagger.  The wings were wooden structures with two spars and fabric covering; the upper wing had 1° of dihedral and the lower one 3°.  There were ailerons on both wings, with aluminium frames and again fabric covered. The fuselage and empennage were fabric covered, welded steel structures. It had fixed conventional landing gear with rubber sprung main legs, aluminium wheels with brakes and a sprung tailwheel.

The Baby was powered by an  Continental C85 air-cooled flat four, its fuel tank in the fuselage behind the engine and in front of the single seat, open cockpit.

title: Złombol

text:
Złombol (English "junkbol"; "złom" means junk) is a charity car rally racing event with a starting point in Poland. The goal of the rally is to finish about 2500 km over a number of stages using a car that was built or designed during the communist era. The rally takes place each year in July, August or September. The starting point is always Katowice.

The 2015 event has been called the largest charity car rally in Europe. The 2020 event has been postponed for 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

History
The rally was conceived in 2007 by two friends as an idea to travel a very long distance in a very old car, and to use that event to gather funds for an orphanage. In the first event there were only two teams.

1 EUR = 4.6 zł

Charity
Teams taking part in the rally are gathering money for orphanages by selling advertising space on their cars. Each team has to acquire donors to reach a target amount specified each year by the organisers. Teams are self-funded and no sponsorship is allowed.

Additional donations, without selling ad space, are allowed. The gathered amount of money is used for supporting orphanages.

The rally
Złombol is an extreme rally. Teams have no support or help from the organisers. The organisers only suggest places or camping spots for a night's rest. Each team takes part at their own expense and risk.

Only cars manufactured in the former Eastern Bloc (during the communist era or after the transformation of 1989, but having roots in the former) are allowed to take part in the competition. The car should be bought for less than 1000 zł (about 320 USD), but slight alterations are allowed.

Participants drive on public roads, either travel in small groups or individually, whatever the team's preference is. For each stage starting and destination points are specified with teams free to choose the travel route between those two points.

After reaching the finish line, each team travels back to their own homes.

title: John Cashel Hoey

text:
John Baptist Cashel Hoey,  (Baptised 17 July 1827 – 7 January 1892) was an Irish writer, editor, and public servant for colonial New Zealand and Australia.

Hoey was born in 1827, the eldest son of Cashel Fitzsimons Hoey, of Dundalk, County Louth, Ireland, and Charleston, South Carolina. He was educated at St. Patrick's College, Armagh, and was one of the principal writers for the Nation, and editor 1849–57, taking over from Charles Gavan Duffy, and was one of the "Young Irelanders". From 1865 to 1878 he was sub-editor of the Dublin Review. He was called to the bar at the Middle Temple in 1861.

Hoey was a member of the board of advice and secretary to the Agent-General for Victoria 1872–73 being appointed by Gavan Duffy, and secretary to the Agent-General for New Zealand 1874–79, since when he had been secretary to the Agent-General for Victoria. He was secretary to the London committees for the Melbourne International Exhibition in 1880 and 1888, and to the Colonial Museums Committee.

Personal life
Hoey married, on 9 February 1858, Frances Sarah Stewart (née Johnston). She was the widow of Adam Murray Stewart, of Cromleich, Dublin, who survived him. As Frances Cashel Hoey, she was a well-known author and translator. The couple had no children.

John Cashel Hoey died in London in 1892, aged 63.

Honours
His honours included Knight of the Orders of Malta, d'Este, Pius IX., Francis I., and El Caridad, and a Fellow of the Roman Academy of the Catholic Religion. He was named Companion of the Order of St Michael and St George (CMG), which was conferred in 1881 for his services on behalf of the International Exhibit in Melbourne in 1880.

title: 2015 South American U-17 Championship

text:
The 2015 South American Under-17 Football Championship (, ) was the 16th edition of the biennial international youth football tournament organized by CONMEBOL for players aged 17 and below. It was held in Paraguay from 4 to 29 March 2015.

This tournament served as CONMEBOL's qualifier for the 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup in Chile. The top four teams, tournament champions Brazil, Argentina, Ecuador, and hosts Paraguay, qualified for the 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup, joining Chile who automatically qualified as hosts of the 2015 FIFA U-17 World Cup.

Teams
All ten CONMEBOL member national teams entered the tournament.

Venues
Paraguay was named as host country of the tournament on 23 May 2012 at the CONMEBOL Executive Committee meeting held in Budapest, Hungary, prior to the 62nd FIFA Congress. A total of three venues were chosen to host the matches: Estadio Dr. Nicolás Léoz in Asunción, Estadio Deportivo Capiatá in Capiatá and Estadio Feliciano Cáceres, Luque.

Match officials
On 10 February 2015, CONMEBOL announced the referees and assistants referees summoned for the tournament. The assistants Ariel Scime (Argentina), Cleriston Barreto (Brazil), Carlos Changala (Uruguay) and Tulio Moreno (Venezuela) were replaced by Cristian Navarro, Bruno Boschilia, Gabriel Popovits and Luis Murillo respectively.

Squads

Each team may register a squad of 22 players (three of whom must be goalkeepers).

Draw
The draw was held on 24 October 2014, 10:00 PYT (UTC−3), at the CONMEBOL Headquarters in Luque, Paraguay. The ten teams involved were settled in five "pairing pots" (Argentina–Brazil, Paraguay–Uruguay, Colombia–Ecuador, Chile–Peru, Bolivia–Venezuela) to be drawn into two groups of five. Initially Argentina and Brazil were announced as seeded teams, however, Paraguay (as hosts) and Uruguay were finally the teams seeded into Group A and Group B respectively and assigned to position 1 in their group. The remaining teams, including Argentina and Brazil, were drawn to determine their group as well as their position within it.

The draw results were as follows:

First stage
The top three teams in each group qualified for the final stage.

When teams finished level of points, the final order was determined according to:
 superior goal difference in all matches
 greater number of goals scored in all group matches

Geographical varieties

Osaka area

The origin of kushiage is said to be served at food bars in downtown Osaka, in the Shinsekai neighborhood. Kushikatsu restaurants specialize in the dish. An owner of a small Shinsekai food bar since 1929 is said to be the pioneer cook, and her menu was quite popular among the district of blue collar workers. She prepared meat on skewers and deep fried, which was a kind of fast food handy to eat, not costly, and filling.

As that menu spread to other areas of Osaka and beyond, it is standard that kushikatsu are prepared with a single food not like that in Tokyo where, for example, they alternately put pork and onion on a skewer. Wider varieties of foods were prepared as the menu developed, on the contrary to those in Nagoya or Tokyo, for instance thin slices of pickled ginger or sausage by itself.

Generally speaking, the food on a skewer is smaller in Osaka style, and customers tend to order larger numbers of kushi compared to Tokyo or Nagoya. That encouraged many kushiage restaurants to use a premixed "batter flour" of powdered egg and flour (compared to that in Tokyo or Nagoya where batter is prepared with fresh egg, water and flour topped with panko crusts). High-end kushiage restaurants in Osaka serve kushikatsu in Tokyo-Nagoya style. Grated yam is added for softer texture. New types of kushikatsu restaurants serve fondue-style kushikatsu where customers fry kushi at the table in a deep pan with cooking oil. Kushinobō is a typical high-end Osaka-style kushiage restaurant with franchises across Japan, and it is appreciated for its unique serving style — until a customer informs them that they are full and don't need any more, they continue to bring variations of kushiage to their table.

Diced cabbage leaves are a free condiment prepared in a large bowl on the table, which is believed to prevent a feeling dull in the stomach.

Tokyo area
The basic kushikatsu in Kanto eastern Japan area including Tokyo is made with diced pork rib in 3–4 cm (1.5 in) cubes, skewered with sliced onions or leeks. Battered with fresh egg, flour and thin layer of panko crust, the skewer is deep fried in vegetable oil — cottonseed, soybean, canola or rapeseed oil. At the table, skewers are seasoned with thick brown sauce, sweeter than Worcestershire sauce, with mustard if they have it in the cruet stand.

Nagoya area

In Nagoya and its surrounding cities, they serve the local delicacy doteni, and have an option to order kushikatsu with that. Unlike the serving style in Osaka and Tokyo, in Nagoya, they dip kushikatsu in the thick sauce they grilled and sauteed beef sinew. That sauce is based on hatcho-miso, and the kushikatsu is called miso katsu.

Other varieties
Sophisticated sauces are prepared in suburban areas of other cities including Nishinomiya and Kobe, and several sauces are served along with kushikatsu course. Plain salt, soy sauce, sesame oil and ketchup along with tartar sauce, miso, mayonnaise and other dip style sauce could be the speciality of each restaurant.

Eating manner
Eating style is unique at kushikatsu restaurants and food bars as kushikatsu is dipped into a pot of thinner sauce before eating. As a sauce pot is shared among customers, reinserting food after a bite is seen as bad manners and unsanitary. Instead, a slice of cabbage is used to scoop up sauce from the pot and pour it onto the kushikatsu. In some restaurants they put a brush or spoon at the shared pot to season the kushi.

Some kushiyaki restaurants have a menu and instructions in English and other languages to warn travelers not to dip food into the shared sauce pot after biting it.

Children's songs
A comic kushikatsu song titled "Kushikatsu wa ippon" became popular to the generation born in 1990s as they enjoyed the song in children's song program on TV broadcast.
 "Kushikatsuwa ippon" (Single Kushikatsu Skewer), broadcast on NHK channel
 "Daruma no Ossan no Uta - sōsu no nidozuke wa kinshi ya de" (Song dedicated to Mr. Darma - never dip your kushikatsu twice in the sauce pot)
