title: American Viscose Corporation

text:
American Viscose Corporation was an American division of the British firm Courtaulds, which manufactured rayon and other synthetic fibres. The company operated from 1910 to 1976 when it was renamed Avtex. Avtex closed in 1990.

History

Established in 1909, it became the largest supplier of rayon and the first company to make artificial silk in the United States.

American Viscose had plants at Marcus Hook, Pennsylvania (established 1910), Roanoke, Virginia (1916), Lewistown, Pennsylvania (1920), Parkersburg, West Virginia (1927), Meadville, Pennsylvania (1929), Nitro, West Virginia, and Front Royal, Virginia (1940). After a 1946 merger with Sylvania Industrial Corporation (not to be confused with lighting and electronics manufacturer Sylvania), it gained a plant at Fredericksburg, Virginia.

The company was founded by Samuel Agar Salvage, as a division of Courtaulds and began production as "The American Viscose Corporation-(AVC)" in 1910. Later it was branded as "Crown Rayon". In 1941, to purchase supplies for the War, the British government were pressured by the U.S. Government to sell the company to 152 American investment firms in a deal lead by Morgan, Stanley & Co. and Dillion, Reed & Co. The 228,480 shares were sold to the public. In 1949, The company passed into the control of the Monsanto Corporation. (Courtaulds resumed manufacture of rayon in the United States in 1952, at a new plant in Axis, Alabama). In 1963 it was purchased by FMC Corporation. In 1974 the plant in Parkersburg, West Virginia was closed. FMC sold off the division in 1976 to its employees, when it was renamed Avtex Fibers.

In 1980 Avtex Fibers closed their plant in Nitro, West Virginia that manufactured rayon staple. In 1983, Avtex Fibers was the largest US manufacturer of rayon fiber, as well as operating plants that made polyester and acetate yarn.

Many of its closed plants have become Superfund pollution cleanup sites. The former plant site at Front Royal, Virginia was used for manufacturing from 1940 until 1989, when the plant was closed after being cited for more than 2,000 environmental violations over five years, including emissions of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) into the nearby Shenandoah River. The plant was demolished in 1997, and is being restored by FMC in conjunction with the United States Environmental Protection Agency.

The company made rayon fiber for fabric and also rayon cord for reinforcement of pneumatic automobile tires. Declining sales and high internal costs caused Avtex to close its rayon operations in 1988, briefly restarting to produce fiber for the aerospace industry, and then permanently closing in 1990 for economic and environmental reasons.

title: Obinitsa tsässon

text:
Obinitsa tsässon is a small Seto chapel in Obinitsa village, Setomaa Parish, Võru County in southeastern Estonia. It is situated next to Obinitsa museum.

General information
This small chapel is a Passover (19 August) tsässon. It was built in 2007, by Ain Raal. The building is used on Passover day, other times it is open for introducing Seto culture to tourists, as it is situated next to Obinitsa muuseumitarõ and the key is in the museum.

Building data
Obinitsa tsässon is built from pine beams which are unhewn from the inside as well as from the outside. The building has an entrance-room that is supported by poles and the main part of it is made from logs. The outer measurements of the tsässon without corner cross-beams are 347 x 560 centimetres, of which the entrance-room makes up 130 cm. The entrance-room does not have a ceiling or a gate, the fence is about a metre high and made from upright unedged boards and fitted in by a few centimetre gaps. The gables are made from boards with the edges placed on top of each other. Tsässon stands on granite stones. The height of the building (the part made from beams) is 194 cm and the height up to the ridge is 383 cm. The roof has a double shingle cover. The ridge has a simple round-timber juniper cross. There is no ceiling on the building and the floor is made from wide boards. There is a door made from wide boards in the front wall that opens on the inside. The building is locked with a large padlock. There are no windows, but on the southern side, in the middle of the wall, there is an opening for a cauldron that can be closed with a trapdoor.

Furnishing
A simple, narrow icon table is in the rear wall of the tsässon, covered by a dark red knitted icon scarf (pühaserätt). Newer printed icons are placed on the icon table and on the rear wall. A painted icon scarf is hung above the icon in the middle of the wall. There is also a turned wooden candleholder and an analoi. A few traditional woven rugs are on the floor.

title: Smart Savings Act

text:
The Smart Savings Act () (Public Law No: 113-255) made the default investment in the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) an age-appropriate target date asset allocation investment fund (L Fund) instead of the Government Securities Investment Fund (G Fund).

The bill was introduced into the United States House of Representatives during the 113th United States Congress. A similar bill, , was introduced into the United States Senate.

Background
Federal workers are automatically enrolled in the G Fund when they sign up, a fund that "is very safe," it is simultaneously "widely viewed by investment professionals as an overly conservative investment, particularly for younger workers, and can leave many unprepared for retirement."

Since August 2010, the Thrift Savings Plan has automatically enrolled all new federal employees to put 3% of their basic pay in the G Fund, unless the employee opted out. Employees get a match of 3% plus a 1% contribution from whatever agency they work at.

Provisions of the bill
This summary is based largely on the summary provided by the Congressional Research Service, a public domain source.

The Smart Savings Act would make the default investment in the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) an age-appropriate target date asset allocation investment fund (L Fund), instead of the Government Securities Investment Fund (G Fund), if no election has been made for the investment of available funds. The bill would retain the Government Securities Investment Fund as the default fund for members of the uniformed services. The bill would require TSP participants whose default fund is an age-appropriate L Fund to sign a risk acknowledgement prior to enrollment.

Congressional Budget Office report
This summary is based largely on the summary provided by the Congressional Budget Office, as ordered reported by House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform on March 12, 2014. This is a public domain source.

H.R. 4193 would change the default investment fund in the Thrift Savings Plan (TSP) for government employees. Currently, contributions of employees who are enrolled in the TSP, but have not specified where to invest their funds, are automatically invested in the Government Securities Investment Fund. This bill would shift the default fund to a Lifecycle fund with an age-appropriate asset allocation.

The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that enacting H.R. 4193 would not affect direct spending. The Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) estimates that there could be a small revenue effect because enacting the bill might change the number of federal employees who choose to contribute to the TSP, thus modifying their total tax liability. Therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. However, JCT estimates that any revenue effects would be negligible.

H.R. 4193 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act and would impose no costs on state, local, or tribal governments.

Procedural history
The Smart Savings Act was introduced into the United States House of Representatives on March 11, 2014 by Rep. Darrell E. Issa (R, CA-49). The bill was referred to the United States House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. On June 30, 2014, it was reported alongside House Report 113-507.

Debate and discussion
Rep. Issa, who introduced the bill, said that the bill "will ensure that workers who are planning ahead for retirement are investing in an account that works for them at every stage of their career." According to Issa, the current "default fund is  government securities, which historically provide very low returns."

Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD) also supported the bill, calling it a "commonsense change" and arguing that the bill "will enable workers to take full advantage of a diversified fund designed to yield higher returns."

title: Washington Area Girls Soccer League

text:
The Washington Area Girls Soccer League (WAGS) is a youth soccer organization with 650 teams and about 10,000 total players throughout Washington D.C., Maryland and Northern Virginia. As of 2014, WAGS has spring and fall playing schedules for teams running from Under 9 age groups to Under 19, with three to 10 divisions in each, depending on the number of registered teams.

The genesis for girls select soccer in the metro DC area was on July 2, 1973, in Toronto Canada. The Annandale Virginiettes met the Bowie Maryland Weebles in the intermediate girls Robbie Tournament final. Bowie’s coach Joe Lucie and Annandale’s Larry Paul agreed to begin a process that eventually became the Washington Area Girls Soccer League.

Over that summer a number of people, notably Rael Vodicka, Everett Germain, Adele Dolansky, Wally Watson, and Mavis Derflinger began laying the groundwork for the organization. In the meantime, a number of Virginia and Maryland clubs continued organizing teams, while hosting and traveling to out-of-state tournaments.

In November 1973 the leadership met at the George Mason Regional Library in Annandale VA and formally voted in its original board with Rael Vodicka as president.

Working over the winter the board decided on two points for spring 1974. First there would be four age groups: girls born in 1957, 1960, 1961 and 1963. Second, they would affiliate with the newly arrived Virginia Youth Soccer Association as the overriding arbitrator.

Notable alumni of the Washington Area Girls Soccer League include Mia Hamm (former U.S. Women's National Team), Andi Sullivan (Stanford University, current U.S. Under 20 Women's National Team), Ali Krieger (Washington Spirit, current U.S. Women's National Team), Caroline Kelly (Virginia Tech University), Noelle Keselica (UVA, Women's Professional League) and Midge Purce (Harvard University, former U.S. Under 20 Women's National Team), Kim Crabbe (NCAA Champions George Mason University).

title: Micro-incineration

text:
Micro-incineration or microincineration is a technique to determine the manner and distribution of mineral elements in biological cells, biological tissues and organs. Slide preparation of tissues can be used.  Examples include calcium (Ca), potassium (K), sodium (Na), magnesium (Mg), iron (Fe), and silicon (Si).

The organic matter is vaporised by heating.  The nature and position of the mineral ash is determined microscopically. Aqueous or cryo-EM fixed tissue materials can also be examined under transmission and scanning electron microscopy (TEM & SEM).

The ashing procedure produces cellular oxidised-residues rich in Na2O, CaO, MgO, Fe2O3, SiO2, Ca(PO4)2, Mg(PO4)2, etc., which are detected by X-ray microanalysis with 2-4 times sensitivity gained after incineration of sample, due to increased mineral concentration and reduced nonspecific background radiation.

title: Buochs Airport

text:
The Buochs Airport (ICAO code LSZC Mil: LSMU) is a regional airport in the town of Buochs in the Canton of Nidwalden in Switzerland. It has a concrete runway with a length of 2000 meters and a width of 40 meters, several taxiways and hangars.

Operation
The airfield is formally the responsibility of the Swiss Air Force, but is operated by the Civil Airport Buochs AG. Since 1 January 2004, the military airfield Buochs is a "sleeping base" of the Air Force. In case of an extraordinary situation the entire military infrastructure of the airfield can be made operational again. However, there are considerations that the military withdraws completely from the airfield.

Use
Next to the aircraft cavern near the airport is the factory premises of the Pilatus Aircraft who use the airfield including for test flights.

History

In Buochs especially the aircraft Dassault Mirage III S, Mirage IIIRS, MirageIIIBS, IIIDS Mirage and F-5E were used. Pilatus use this airfield for all test- and delivery flights for the products manufactured by Pilatus aircraft such as the Pilatus P-3, Pilatus PC-7, Pilatus PC-8D Twin Porter, Pilatus PC-9, Pilatus PC-12 and Pilatus PC-21
Buochs is equipped with an Aircraft cavern, also was A2 motorway built so that MirageIIIS using JATO booster rockets could take off from this highway. But this opportunity was never used .  The air base is, at both end of the runway, equipped with retractable Arresting gear devices (used by the F/A-18 and in case of a problem by the F-5).

The airfield was active until 2003; used for fighter jets of the Swiss Air Force. It was the home of militia Squadron 8 with F-5E, along with the reconnaissance squadron 10 with Mirage IIIRS.  With the end of Buochs as active military airfield and the MirageIIIRS pass out of service, 2 MirageIIIRS received about a special painting in black and white. The in the 1999 decommissioning Mirage IIIS were turned to a hardstand at Buochs Airport for several years until their scrapping.  Also often Pilatus PC-6, PC-7, Alouette III, Super Puma, Mirage IIIDS were used from Buochs, rarely was its use as alternate airport for F/A-18 .
With the exercise "REVITA" in spring 2014 Buochs was activated by the Air Command Meiringen for 4 days and there were missions with F-5E and F/A-18 flown from Buochs.

The airfield is also used for different occasions, the trade show "Iheimisch» Nidwaldner the trader was held there in May 2012 and in September of the same year, the 4th Air Show Swiss Aero Expo In July 2010, the 35th World Championship of the Army paratroopers took place in the square, parallel to this, a big concert with Bonnie Tyler was held.
On 1 August 2014, the Airshow PC-7 Team has for the first time officially, the show flown with smoke generators on the airfield Buochs. The reason for this event was the Swiss National Day, the 25th anniversary of the PC-7 Team and the roll-out of the Pilatus PC-24. The Modellfluggruppe Nidwalden (MGN) uses the airfield.

title: 2000 1000 Guineas

text:
The 2000 1000 Guineas Stakes was a horse race held at Newmarket Racecourse on Sunday 7 May 2000. It was the 187th running of the 1000 Guineas.

The winner was Hamdan Al Maktoum's Lahan, a British-bred bay filly trained at Manton in Wiltshire by John Gosden and ridden by Richard Hills. Lahan's victory was the first in the race for her trainer. Hamdan Al Maktoum had won the race before with Salsabil (1990), Shadayid (1991) and Harayir (1996), the last of which had given Richard Hills his only previous winner in the race. It was also the first classic success for Lahan's sire Unfuwain who was also the damsire of the runner-up and the sire of the third-placed filly.

The contenders
The race attracted a field of eighteen runners, seventeen trained in the United Kingdom and one in Ireland: there were no challengers from continental Europe. The favourite was the unbeaten Michael Stoute-trained Petrushka who had won the Nell Gwyn Stakes on her most recent appearance. The Irish challenger was Amethyst, trained by Aidan O'Brien at Ballydoyle who had won the Leopardstown 1,000 Guineas Trial Stakes three weeks earlier. The Godolphin Racing stable entered Bintalreef, a filly who had won her only race as a two-year-old before wintering in Dubai. The other fancied runners included Seazun, winner of the Cheveley Park Stakes and the Henry Cecil-trained High Walden, the winner of a maiden race at Leicester Racecourse. Major winners who were less well-supported included the Rockfel Stakes winner Lahan, the Cherry Hinton Stakes winner Torgau (voted Cartier Champion Two-year-old Filly of 1999), the Oh So Sharp Stakes winner Agrippina and the Sweet Solera Stakes winner Princess Ellen. Petrushka headed the betting at odds of 6/4 ahead of Bintalreef (5/2) and High Walden (9/1) with Amethyst and Seazun on 10/1.

The race
At the start of the race, the fillies looked likely to split into two groups on the wide Newmarket straight, but soon converged to race up the stands side (the left side from the jockeys' viewpoint). The 50/1 outsider Velvet Lady set the pace from the 200/1 shot Claranet with Torgau, Amethyst, Bintalreef, Issey Rose and Princess Ellen close behind. The field bunched a quarter of a mile from the finish, with Petrushka, Lahan, Princess Ellen, Halland Park Girl, Aunty Rose and Bintalreef being affected by the resulting congestion, while Seazun made progress on the outside. Having obtained a clear run, Lahan accelerated through the centre of the field and took the lead approaching the final furlong. Princess Ellen stayed on along the rail to emerge as the only serious challenger, but Lahan won by one and a quarter lengths. Petrushka was three lengths back in third ahead of Seaun and High Walden, Velvet Lady, Torgau and Amethyst. The second favourite Bintalreef finished last of the eighteen runners, having pulled a muscle exiting the starting stalls and never raced again.

title: Epichorista lindsayi

text:
Epichorista lindsayi is a species of moth in the family Tortricidae. It is endemic to New Zealand. This species is classified as Nationally Endangered by the Department of Conservation.

Taxonomy
This species was first described by Alfred Philpott in 1928 and named after its collector Stuart Lindsay. Lindsay collected two males of the species at Little River on 29 January 1928. George Vernon Hudson described and illustrated the species in his 1939 publication A supplement to the butterflies and moths of New Zealand. The genus level classification of New Zealand endemic moths within the genus Epichorista is regarded as unsatisfactory and is under revision. As such this species is currently also known as Epichorista (s.l.) lindsayi. The type specimen is held at the Canterbury Museum.

Description

E. lindsayi is very similar in appearance to Eurythecta eremana but can be distinguished by the differences in the venational structure of its wings.

Distribution

This species is endemic to New Zealand. It has only ever been found on the Banks Peninsula.

Habitat
This species occurs in grassy glades dominated by the species Microlaena polynoda in lowland mature podocarp forest.

Biology and life history
This species is a day flying moth.

Host plants
This species is associated with Microlaena polynoda and this plant likely hosts E. lindsayi.

Conservation status
E. lindsayi has been classified under the New Zealand Threat Classification system as being Nationally Endangered.

title: Dutch Civilisation in the Seventeenth Century

text:
Dutch civilisation in the seventeenth century (Dutch: Nederland's beschaving in de zeventiende eeuw) is a book published in Dutch by the Dutch historian Johan Huizinga in 1941. It was first translated into English by Arnold Pomerans in 1968 and published by the Frederick Ungar Publishing Company. It was edited by Peter Geyl and F. W. N. Hugenholtz.

Content
Huizinga's work analyses the causes, content and consequences of the seventeenth century in the Netherlands, a period that can be broadly subsumed under the title and concept of the Dutch Golden Age. In his view, the efflorescence of art, literature and economic activity that characterised that period was driven by certain key factors: the idea that Dutch society was differentiated from other countries in Europe, for instance, by being fundamentally middle-class. The involvement of the middle-class in public life led to a 'discussion culture' which helped foment new ideas and inventions. Religion was also an important factor here, according to Huizinga, particularly given the virtues of Calvinism (such as "simplicity, thrift and cleanliness') and the two factors were related, for Calvinism had an inherently anti-aristocratic element to it which helped ensure its success amongst people from relatively modest and bourgeois backgrounds.

As with the rest of his oeuvre, Huizinga is concerned with a synthesis of historical analysis that incorporates art and culture as well as political, economic and social factors. He focuses upon a number of key artistic and cultural figures and developments in the Netherlands of the 17th century, including Frans Hals, Rembrandt, Hercules Seghers and Joost van den Vondel (as well as scientists such as Christiaan Huygens).

title: Johann Gottlieb Jackschon

text:
Johann Gottlieb Jackschon (23 January 1846 – 10 July 1931) was an Australian cricket scorer. He served as scorer for the New South Wales cricket team at various times over a period of around 40 years.  On several occasions, he took the innovative step of making a separate memorandum recording the number of balls faced and runs scored by each batsman off each bowler, unlike scoring in a conventional scorebook but similar to the modern linear system of scoring.

Jackschon was born in Maust, in Teichland north of Cottbus, Spree-Neiße, Prussia (now in eastern Germany).  He emigrated to Australia with his parents and two older sisters, arriving in Sydney in August 1852 on the brig Reiherstieg.  The family settled in Grafton, about  north of Sydney.  One of his sisters later married a police constable Henry Bassman; the other married Joseph Kempnich, who ran a sugar mill.

In his earlier years, Jackschon played cricket as wicketkeeper for teams in Warwick and Albert, playing his first match at Yamba.   He was honorary scorer for the New South Wales cricket team from around 1886 until around 1893, when he moved back to Grafton.  He had an orange orchard at Carr's Creek, and he became secretary of the Grafton District cricket association.  His father died in Grafton in 1897.

He continued to return to Sydney to score important cricket matches, including Test matches.  Lord Sheffield gave Jackschon a gold medal for scoring in matches played by an English touring team captained by WG Grace that Sheffield organised in 1891-2.  A report in The Referee of the Jubilee match played between New South Wales and Victoria in 1906 mentioned that Jackschon had compiled a table of balls faced and runs scored by each batsman off each bowler, in a similar manner to the modern linear system of scoring used in the 1890s by John Atkinson Pendlington, and developed Bill Ferguson and Bill Frindall.

After Jackschon moved back to Sydney in November 1904, he lived for some time in Mosman on the North Shore, and then moved to the Eastern Suburbs to be closer to the Sydney Cricket Ground .  He underwent an operation for appendicitis in December 1911.   He resumed his role as honorary scorer for New South Wales and then as official scorer from 1913.  Affectionately nicknamed "the Professor" and occasionally "Jacko", "General" or "Daddy", he regularly occupied a seat in "Veterans Corner" in the Sydney Cricket Ground's pavilion, near the visitors dressing room, attending cricket or rugby matches for around 30 years.

He is often referred to by his initials, J.G., and his first name is sometimes Anglicised as John.  In some sources, his surname is  given as Jackscohn or occasionally Jackson. The year of his birth is confused in some sources.  He was reported to have celebrated his 74th birthday in January 1924, when he was probably 78, and was said to be variously 84 or 86 at his death in Bondi in July 1931, when he was probably 85.  He was associated with the Manchester Unity of Oddfellows for many years.  After a funeral at St. Clement's Church in Mosman, he was buried in the Northern Suburbs cemetery.  He was survived by his widow, Sarah, and a sister, Mrs Kempnich.

title: Rokina tsässon

text:
Rokina tsässon is a small Seto chapel, situated in Rokina village, Setomaa Parish, Võru County in southeastern Estonia.

General information
Rokina tsässon is dedicated to Saint Anastasia and 11 November is a commemoration day (Nahtsipäev) for Anastasia (29 October according to Julian calendar). Tsässon is not in constant use. The building is not state-protected and is in good condition. The last renovation was done with the funding from a state programme “Preservation and development of sanctuaries” in 2009. In the course of renovation, lower beams were replaced, the entrance-room was fixed up and an eternit roof was replaced by a board roof.

Building data
Rokina tsässon is a small, one-storied pine cross-beam building, has a square floor plan and a gable roof, the outer measurements of which together with the entrance-room are 390 x 230 cm. The beam part of the building is square (242 x 240 cm), surface area on the inside is about 3 m2. Tsässon has an open entrance-room (about 4 m2) with round logs that have slightly profiled angles that support the roof and about a metre high fence made from upright boarding. The gate is made from vertical fencing with the upper part of it arched. There is a cross on the highest fence board in the middle of the gate. The height of the building from the ground up to where the rafter and the wall unite is 160 cm and the height up to the ridge is 310 cm. The ridge has a simple wooden cross on it. The logs of the building are standing on granite stones and are tied in the corners by axe hewn halving. The dimensions of the door are 64 x 141 cm. The door is made up from three axe-hewn wide boards fixed on the crosspiece and painted over with red paint. The door opens on the inside. The vertical supporting posts are axe-hewn; the log above the door is hewn curved. The door is fixed on the supporting posts by forged 30 cm hinges that are not original. There is a cutting made inside the beams above the door for the entry icon. There are no windows. Originally, the building had a board roof, as can be seen from the raising-plate construction. During the last renovation, the eternit roof was replaced once again by a board roof. The eternit roof was put on the building after 1975; according to the Dr. Fr. R. Kreutzwald Memorial Museum 1974 notes (Kupp 1974) the building had a shattered board roof. It is also noted that in the earlier years, the tsässon was painted red, but the paint had worn out. The building on the photograph taken around the 1920s had no boarding, with the board roof leaning on lengthwise raising-plates and no entrance-room. There is a wooden Latin cross in the place of the former recess for an icon, under the gables in the upper frontal part of the building. In the 1974 photo, the building has an entrance-room that has been preserved up to today.

Furnishing
The rear-wall of the tsässon has an icon shelf with a few icons. Formerly, this tsässon had an icon depicting Paraskeva, St Nicholas the Miracle-Maker and Anastasia (Kupp 1974) and an icon stand.

title: Epichorista tenebrosa

text:
Epichorista tenebrosa is a species of moth in the family Tortricidae. This species is endemic to New Zealand. It is found in Otago and has been collected in tussock grassland habitats. It is a late autumn emerging moth and adults are on the wing in February. It is classified as "At Risk, Relict'" by the Department of Conservation.

Taxonomy
This species was first described by Alfred Philpott in 1917 from a specimen collected at Ben Lomond by Charles E. Clarke in February. George Hudson discussed and illustrated this species in his 1928 book The Butterflies and Moths of New Zealand. The genus level classification of New Zealand endemic moths within Epichorista  is regarded as unsatisfactory and is under revision. As such this species is currently also known as Epichorista (s.l.) tenebrosa. The type specimen is held at the Auckland War Memorial Museum.

Description

Philpott described the species as follows:

Distribution

This species is endemic to New Zealand. It is found in the Otago. As well as its type locality, this species has also been found in Naseby State Forest, at Roaring Meg and South Rough Ridge Hill.

Behaviour
This species is a late autumn emerging moth. It is on the wing in February.

Habitat
Hudson noted that the type specimen was found at an altitude of 4000 ft in tussock grasslands. The species has subsequently been collected from similar habitat.

Conservation status
This moth is classified under the New Zealand Threat Classification system as being "At Risk, Relict".

title: Gheens, Louisiana

text:
Gheens (also Golden Ranch, Vacherie) is an unincorporated community in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana, United States. Its ZIP code is 70355.

Education
Lafourche Parish Public Schools operates public schools.

The area primary schools would be Lockport Lower and Lockport Upper Elementary Schools in Lockport, and the area junior high school is Lockport Middle School in Lockport. The area high school is Central Lafourche High School.

Lafourche Parish Library operates the Gheens Library.

Mardi Gras
Gheens is one of the only two southeastern Louisiana communities that still practice the traditional Mardi Gras chase, a tradition that has taken place in Gheens dating back to the turn of the 20th century. In this event following the community's annual Mardi Gras parade, masked men or "Mardi Gras" descend from trailers to chase and whip the town's children with willow branches, symbolizing atonement from sin. In order to avoid being whipped, children must kneel and say "pardon," meaning "pardon me" in Cajun French; however, many children choose to run from the Mardi Gras, at risk of being whipped. Mardi Gras flogging is primarily symbolic, and Mardi Gras generally deliver, at most, a light tap on the back of the victim's legs.

title: Robert Thorne (typographer)

text:
Robert Thorne (1754 – 11 March 1820) was a British type founder and typographer. An apprentice to Thomas Cottrell, who had been an employee of William Caslon, Thorne later acquired Cottrell's type foundry. He was successful in business and left a fortune of £25,000 on his death in 1820. Thorne is buried at Holloway Road Cemetery, where his tomb is extant.

Career
The beginning of Thorne's independent career is not certain; he was recorded as a typefounder in 1785, the year Cottrell died, but is only recorded as having purchased Cottrell's foundry in 1794. His first specimen appeared the same year. Thorne was based at first No. 6 and then No. 11 Barbican; in 1799 he was recorded as living at Church Street, Hackney. In 1802 he moved premises to a former brewery in Fann Street, Aldersgate, which became known as the Fann Street Foundry. He was recorded as a member of the London Society of Master Letter-Founders, a trade association and cartel, from 1809 onwards.  In 1817-8 Thorne considered retiring (according to Talbot Baines Reed, whose family later took over his company, he was in poor health), and offered his business for sale for £8,000 but could not find a buyer. On his death the business was auctioned as a single concern, and bought by William Thorowgood, the co-proprietor of a pump company (according to Reed "with the proceeds, it is said, of a fortunate draw in one of the State Lotteries").

Contemporary sources credit Thorne with introducing the fat face display typefaces that came to dominate poster design from around 1810 onwards, although a lack of typeface specimen books from the period, both from Thorne and from his competitors, make this hard to confirm. According to Thomas Curson Hansard (1825), "the extremely bold and fat letter, now prevalent in job-printing, owes its introduction principally to Mr. Thorne, a spirited and successful letter-founder" and according to William Savage (1822) he "has been principally instrumental in the revolution that has taken place in Posting Bills by the introduction of fat types." Reed wrote that his early types shown in 1798 formed a specimen that is "indeed one of the most elegant of which that famous decade can boast. For lightness, grace and uniformity [it] excels that of almost all his competitors" but that his later typefaces were "exceedingly thick and fat". No full specimen of Thorne's survives for the last decade of his career, although in Reed's view Thorowgood's of 1821 "may be taken as representing the contents of the foundry pretty much as Thorne left it" with some additions; Reed published a summary of a sale catalogue, since lost.

In the early twentieth century several writers on printing enthusiastically rated Thorne as the villain who ruined the art of printing in England: Daniel Berkeley Updike wrote that his 1803 specimen showcased "the vilest form of type invented–up to that time" and it "should be looked at as a warning of what fashion can make men do" and Stanley Morison that he "all but sent printing to perdition at one stroke". More recent writers, such as Nicolete Gray and Paul Barnes, have simultaneously been more complimentary towards his work and cautioned that limited documentation means that his supposed impact on printing trends cannot be confirmed.

Epichoristodes apilectica is a species of moth of the family Tortricidae. It was first described by Alexey Diakonoff in 1960 and is found on Madagascar.

Afromoths uses the name Epichoristodes apiletica on its website. That website references Diakonoff's 1960 article "Tortricidae from Madagascar. Part I. Tortricinae and Chlidanotinae" published in Verhandelingen van de Koninklijke Nederlandse Academie van Wetenschappen (2) 53(2) pages 1–109. However Tortricid.net and the Global Lepidoptera Names Index use the spelling apilectica and reference the same journal and volume, but page 170.

text:
Lauren Andino (born July 7, 1986) is an American artist, musician, and co-founder of DL Skateboards. Raised in Columbia, South Carolina, Andino moved to Brooklyn, New York as a young adult where she played in several bands.
She is currently the singer and guitarist for the shoegaze pop band Tremours with drummer Glenn Fryatt. Since August 2021, she has been playing guitar and touring with L.A. Witch.

In 2015, Andino graduated from Southwestern Law School.

She currently resides in Los Angeles, CA.

DL Skateboards
Andino formed DL Skateboards with Derek Mabra in 2011.
Of her inspiration for starting the company, she told Vogue Magazine:
In the 1960s, if you wanted a skateboard, you carved and painted it yourself, and that is what we make, a classic skateboard with a modern twist.
Andino designs and paints each DL Skateboard collection.  In an interview with The New York Daily News, she explained:
A lot of the designs come from '60s, surf style or a classic kid toys, and they are hand-painted. So even if you get the same design, each board is different.
In 2014, Marie Claire Magazine named her one of 5 Women Running the Show Behind Iconic Male Brands along with executives from Anheuser Busch, Playboy, and ESPN. The Daily Beast profiled her as a "skater chick turned entrepreneur".

title: Joseph Anton Settegast

text:
Joseph Anton Nikolaus Settegast (8 February 1813, Koblenz - 19 March 1890, Mainz) was a German church painter and one of the last representatives of the Nazarene movement.

Life
He received his first art instruction from 1829 to 1831 at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf. However, he became dissatisfied with the quality of the teaching there and went to study with Philipp Veit, at the Städel Art Institute in Frankfurt, where he remained until 1838. During this time, he produced many altar and devotional paintings, including an altarpiece at the parish church in Bad Camberg, done together with his friend, .

From 1838 to 1843 he made several study trips to Italy and lived in Rome. There he became a member of the "Komponiervereins", a Nazarene association.

After his return, he married Dorothea Veit (1822-1897, his teacher's daughter). They had nine children altogether. At first they lived in Frankfurt, until 1849, then moved to Koblenz, then to Mainz in 1860. He executed commissions for many churches, including the Basilica of St. Castor in Koblenz and the Mainz Cathedral. Numerous images of saints were created for the "Verein zur Verbreitung religiöser Bilder" (Association for the Dissemination of Religious Images). He remained a lifelong admirer of the Nazarenes.

His last years were marred by a fall from a scaffold in Münster, which resulted in permanent injuries that restricted his ability to do large projects. Completely oblivious to new trends in art, his work was increasingly ignored.

title: Civil Aviation Department Ashvini

text:
The Civil Aviation Department Ashvini was the first two-seat glider designed and built in India. It was produced in small numbers in the early 1960s.

Design and development

Ashvini is the first nakshatra, a lunar based division of the ecliptic in Hindu astrology.  The glider named after it was the first Indian two seater, developed for the Indian Civil Aviation Gliding Centres and the National Cadet Corps. The first prototype, the TS-2 Ashvini, was first flown on 3 September 1958 by F.H. Irani and later in its development by the very experienced glider pilot Hanna Reitsch. It was displayed to Prime Minister Nehru at Delhi Airport in February 1959. The reports of both pilots led to improvements incorporated in the next three pre-production prototypes, termed TS-3 Ashvini, along with some alterations made to ease later production. The first TS-3 flew in July 1959. The series production aircraft, first flown in prototype form in December 1960, was named the TS-4 Ashvini II. Alterations included revised forward fuselage contours and changes to control runs in the cockpit which allowed seats and sills to be lowered, easing access.  The lift to drag ratio was increased by lowering the wing relative to the fuselage, improving the aerodynamics of the junction. Eleven production TS-4s were built.

The Asvini had an all-wood structure, covered with a mixture of plywood and fabric, using Indian grown spruce and cedar. Its three part wing had two spars and 4° of forward sweep at the quarter chord line. The centre section had a span of  and the outer panels were detachable. In plan the wing was straight tapered (taper ratio 0.41), with forward sweep on both leading and trailing edges. It was ply covered forward of the rear spar around the leading edge, forming a torsion box, and fabric covered over the remaining 30% of chord. Its high cantilever wing was mounted with 1° dihedral on top of the spar. It had plain fabric covered ailerons and short DFS-type air-brake pairs placed behind the forward spar at about one quarter span. There were no flaps.

The Ashvini's fuselage was a ply covered wooden-semi-monocoque including an integral, ply covered fin with a straight, swept leading edge. Its balanced rudder, full and rounded, extended down to the keel.  The horizontal tail was straight edged and double tapered, with square tips. It was mostly fabric covered apart from the leading edge and root and was placed on top of the fuselage, far enough forward that the inner edges of the separate elevators were in line with the rudder hinge. The rear control surfaces were fabric covered.

Pupil and instructor, provided with dual controls, sat in tandem ahead of the wing leading edge, the latter at the rear over the centre of gravity. They had separate perspex canopies; the forward canopy was side hinged and the instructor's opened rearwards. The main landing gear was a single, non-retractable wheel without brakes.  Ahead of the wheel and under the cockpits was a rubber sprung, steel shod skid and at the rear there was a short, tennis ball sprung tail skid.

Variants
Data from Jane's All the World's Aircraft 1964/5

TS-2 Ashvini First prototype, first flown September 1958.
TS-3 Ashvini Pre-production prototypes with modifications to ease production and as a result of prototype flight testing. First flown July 1959; three built.
TS-4 Ashvini II Production version with further improvements: forward fuselage and cockpit revised for easier access and wings lowered to improve wing-fuselage junction aerodynamics. First prototype flew December 1960 followed by eleven production models built by Aeronautical Services Ltd; production ended 1963.
