title: Jason Livermore

text:
Jason Livermore (born 25 April 1988) is a Jamaican track and field sprinter who competes in the 100 metres and 200 metres. He has personal bests of 10.05 seconds and 20.13 seconds for the distances, respectively. He was the bronze medallist in the 200 m at the 2014 Commonwealth Games.

He represented his country at the 2013 World Championships in Athletics and twice at the Pan American Games (2007 . Livermore has competed in the Jamaican relay team in the 4×100, 4×200 and 4×400 metres relay. He runs for Akan Track Club.

Career
Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Livermore attended Calabar High School and ran for the school alongside other sprint alumni Warren Weir and Ramone McKenzie. He made his first international appearances at the age of nineteen. Having set a 100 m best of 10.64 seconds for fourth at the Jamaican High School Championships, he was chosen for the 2007 Pan American Games, but he did not get past the heats at the meet in Rio de Janeiro. He improved his 100 m best to 10.61 seconds in 2008, then 10.43 in 2010. A 200 m best of 21.61 seconds brought him eighth at the Jamaican Athletics Championships. He was part of the Jamaican 4×400 metres relay team for the 2010 NACAC Under-23 Championships in Athletics and the quartet including Roxroy Cato, Teo Bennett, and Ramone McKenzie placed fourth. Livermore ran 10.31 seconds at the 2011 Jamaican Championships, but could not progress beyond the quarter-finals due to the depth of Jamaican men's sprinting. He returned to the Pan American Games in 2011. He was eliminated in the first round of the 100 m, but ran a best of 20.73 seconds in 200 m qualifying, later being eliminated in the semi-finals. He ran in both sprint relay teams for Jamaica, but neither reached the final. He did not compete internationally in 2012 – his best race that year was a personal best-equalling time of 10.31 seconds in the 100 m.

Livermore was second to Kim Collins at the 2013 UTech Classic in Kingston, running 10.29 seconds. He made big improvements at the Jamaican Championships starting with a 100 m best of 10.07 seconds for fifth overall. He knocked over half a second off his 200 m best during the tournament and his time of 20.13 seconds in the final was enough for third behind Warren Weir and Nickel Ashmeade. This earned him the fourth 200 m spot on the Jamaican team at the 2013 World Championships in Athletics (defending champion Usain Bolt was automatically qualified). Prior to that event, he was a double medallist at the 2013 Central American and Caribbean Championships in Athletics: first he won the bronze in the 200 m, then he shared in the 4×100 metres relay silver medals after anchoring home a team of Oshane Bailey, Andrew Fisher, and Jermaine Brown. On his global senior debut in Moscow he reached the semi-finals of the World Championship 200 metres.

The inaugural 2014 IAAF World Relays saw Livermore on qualification duty in the 4×200 metres relay. He helped the team to a continental record of 1:20.15 minutes, which was soon broken by the world record-setting Jamaican team in the final. He started competing on the international track and field circuit and was second in the 200 m at the Rabat Meeting to Femi Ogunode. He peaked for the Jamaican Championships with a best of 10.05 seconds in the 100 m. He was the runner-up over 100 m and third in the 200 m. He was chosen to represent Jamaica at the 2014 Commonwealth Games and reached the final of both events. First, he placed sixth in the Commonwealth Games 100 m and then he took the bronze medal in a Jamaican medal sweep in the 200 m final, alongside Rasheed Dwyer and Weir. He then earned his first international gold medal, helping Jamaica to first place in the men's 4x100m, setting a new games record of 37.58.

title: Tefifon

text:
The Tefifon is an audio playback format, developed and manufactured in Germany, that utilizes cartridges loaded with an endlessly looped reel of plastic tape. It is somewhat similar to the later 4-track and 8-track magnetic audio tape cartridges, but with grooves embossed on the tape, like a phonograph record. The grooves were embossed in a helical fashion across the width of the tape, in a manner similar to Dictaphone's Dictabelt format. The grooves are read with a stylus and amplified pickup in the player's transport. A Tefifon cartridge, known as a "Tefi", can hold up to four hours of music; therefore, most releases for the format are usually compilations of popular hits or dance music, operas, and operettas. Tefifon players were not sold by television and radio dealers in Germany, but rather sold directly by special sales outlets affiliated with Tefi (the manufacturer of the format).

History

1930s
The Tefifon format was developed by the German entrepreneur Dr. Karl Daniel and his "Tefi" company in 1936. A few years earlier, devices using phonographic grooved tape like the Tefifon were produced by Tefi for special purposes, like the military, and were designed for voice recording. Prior to the Tefifon's introduction, Tefi had introduced a device capable of recording and playback under the name "Tefiphon" (note the alternate spelling) and another device only capable of playback under the name "Teficord". Both use loose tape, unlike the cartridge-loaded tape of the Tefifon.

In 1937, a half-speed 9.5 CPS (3-3/4 IPS) format was developed for talking books for the blind in the early run-up to World War II. This was continued, albeit scaled back until vinyl disc technology could catch up in quality if not time, since the 4-hour Tefi cartridges recorded at 19 CPS (7-1/2 IPS) could carry 4 hours, the talking book could carry twice that, or eight hours.

With no way to get an eight-hour recording done all in one session with no mistakes, these extremely long programs were transcribed first onto 15-minute cartridges (30 minutes of Talking Book) and later 1-hour cartridges (2-hour Talking Book) and then assembled by playing them back in succession much as a long radio program is spread over many sides and assembled later on-air to sound as if the whole thing is live.

1940s
The first Tefifon players and cartridges for home use came available in the German market towards the end of the 1940s, but could not compete with the popular phonographic disc format readily already available at the time. One reason was that well-known artists were committed exclusively by contract to major record companies, most of which had no interest in offering their artists' albums on Tefifon tapes. As a result, most Tefifon releases were of relatively unknown bands and artists. In addition, the Tefifon saw competition from phonographs equipped with record changers, some of which could allow for up to three hours of music without interruption.

1950s
The Tefifon was offered in the 1950s as a standalone device, but also in combination with various types of radios, including portable and home models. The chassis of the radio sets were often purchased ready-made from third parties, with a Tefifon playback transport being added to it as a finished product. The sound quality of Tefifon tapes is superior to 78 rpm records made of shellac, but is still less than that of 33 rpm LP records made of vinyl. In addition, the mechanical stress on the stylus and supporting cantilever is quite strong, so this wears out relatively quickly.

1960s
The last innovation of the Tefifon format was in 1961, with the introduction of stereo sound, but this was not commercially successful. Tefifon production at its main plant in Porz am Rhein was halted in 1965. Afterward, the rights to the name were acquired by the Neckermann mail-order company, which also took over the sale of existing Tefifon products. Even though the Tefifon was little-known outside of Germany, it was imported and sold in the United States for a very short time by Western Electric's Westrex division from 1963 to 1964 under the "Westrex" name.

Technical Details

Cartridges

Tefifon cartridges were made in 4 sizes:
 A `single' size which carried about four minutes of audio (A special adapter was needed to play these, the same as large hole 45-RPM records)
 A small size with 15 minutes of audio.
 A medium size, with an hour of audio.
 A large size, with 4 hours of audio.

The larger cartridge also had several differences from the smaller units. It featured a spring to assist in removing the tape for playback, and a plastic cover over the tape to protect it.  The cartridges also have a cardboard protective case.

Playback

A Tefifon cartridge would be inserted into the machine, with the reader tape around the turning knob. The machine would then be started. The tape would be read with a stylus, which moved across the grooves, in a manner similar to a phonograph record. However, the tape would be stored in a cartridge, like later magnetic tape systems. While there was no way of moving to a specific track, the stylus could be moved to a variety of positions on the tape.

title: Jebel Dahar

text:
Jebel Dahar () is a low sandstone mountain chain of the Médenine Governorate of Tunisia.

Geography
The chain is oriented on a north-south axis, bisecting the south of Tunisia. At the northern end, it meets the east-west-oriented Jebel Tebaga. The Sahara lies to the south and west of it, and the fertile Jeffara plain to the east. It runs for over  south from Matmata, curving gently to the east to sink beneath the dunes of the Grand Erg Oriental near Tataouine. Foothills extend for a further  to the border with Libya, beyond which the chain continues as the Nafusa Mountains.

The peaks of Jebel Dahar are lower than those of the Dorsale and Atlas chains. The tallest is Djebel Zemertène, at . However, they are imposing in form: most are steep-sided mesas, separated by either narrow ravines or wide valleys.

Climate and vegetation
The local climate is extremely arid with frequent wind. The temperature often falls below  at night during the winter, and rises as high as  during the day in summer. There are approximately 15–20 days of precipitation a year, primarily in winter and in the form of localised showers. There is little vegetation, consisting of lucerne, thorn bushes, and the occasional palm tree, giving the landscape a lunar appearance.

Settlement and agriculture
Jebel Dahar has been inhabited for thousands of years by various Berber tribes, who farm the mountain slopes on terraced fields to retain runoff water from the rare rainfall. This is called the jessour system after the native word jessr and uses earth and rock dykes to define the terraces and hold water, with spillways to divert excess to a terrace below. Olive and fruit trees and vegetables are cultivated. A number of jessour fields can be seen around Matmata.

The mountains have served as a refuge for the Berbers of the plains following the Hilalian invasions of the 11th century. They built fortified villages (ksars) and cave dwellings to adapt to the harsh climate and for defence.

Cave dwellings
Jebel Dahar is known for its cave dwellings. These are excavated in two forms: dugouts and tunnels into the mountainside.

For a dugout dwelling, a shaft  deep and up to  in diameter is sunk, from the bottom of which horizontal tunnels radiate to serve as rooms; the openings to these are uncovered or covered only by a carpet. Shelves, racks, benches and beds are cut out of the walls. Sometimes further rooms are created which are reached by means of a rope and steps cut in the wall; these are used for storage and traditionally for the first week after a couple's marriage. A tunnel is dug from the inside to form an exit, with a slight downwards incline so that any rain water can run out of the dwelling. These exit tunnels are usually winding and have niches for stabling animals. The exit door is usually decorated with traditional symbols such as the hand of Fatima or a fish, and is often concealed between rocks and bushes. There is sometimes a nomads' tent and a shelter for animals nearby.

The more common and widespread type of cave dwelling is constructed by boring a tunnel into the side of the mountain; softer stone is excavated to form rooms, with the tailings sometimes being used in walls or terrace dykes, and the harder rock left in place to form ceilings and floors. Often several such tunnels are stacked one above the other, topped by a structure used for storage and defence.

The cave dwellings are well adapted to the climate, remaining cool in summer and retaining warmth in winter, and it is disputed how far they should be regarded as defensive as opposed to purely practical. Some have been equipped with electricity and running water. Nonetheless, few families remain in them. The majority, especially younger people, have moved into the new blocks of flats in urban areas, which are sometimes unpleasantly cold in winter and require air conditioning in summer, but offer electric stoves, washing machines, and other modern comforts. The ancient settlement of Matmata is thus increasingly being deserted in favour of Nouvelle (New) Matmata,  away. In addition to Matmata, some cave dwellers remain in Beni Aïssa und Beni Métir, approximately  away.

Fortified settlements
As in all of south Tunisia, an alternative traditional building type is the ksar (plural ksour), an assemblage of usually multi-storey barrel-shaped storage buildings enclosing a rectangular courtyard, with the doors opening inwards so that the outside walls form a defence. These were used by the semi-nomadic Berbers to store their possessions together with grain, oil and animal feed. Generally a single watchman and his family, together with the aged and children, remained there while the remainder of the tribe moved around. In Jebel Dahar, they were often built on steep crags for additional defence; those on the plain are believed to have been constructed in relatively peaceful periods.

Tourism
The largest number of ksour and the best examples are found around Tataouine, where there is a "route of the ksour" comparable to the "route of the kasbahs" in southern Morocco. The best preserved and most attractive ksar is in Chenini, approximately  west of Tataouine. Near there are Douiret, where there is the only underground mosque in The Dahar Region (at least 2 other subterranean mosques are on Djerba Island, one restored and functioning, all open to visits from non-Muslims); impressive storage buildings at Guermessa und Ksar Hadada; and Ksar Ouled Soltane, south of Tataouine.

The remaining cave dwellers have responded to increasing numbers of tourists by charging visitors to tour and take photographs of their homes, with what has been called "latent aggressiveness that is only too understandable in view of the hordes of tourists who invade their living spaces and privacy without respect".

Tourists are also increasingly drawn to the stark landscape for the effects of the light, particularly at sunrise and sunset. Many make daytrips from Djerba or Zarzis, and tours of Tunisia usually include a side trip to the mountains.

Jebel Dahar has also become internationally known as a site of filming in 1977 for Star Wars (near Matmata) and in 2000 for Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones. Local people were employed as cheap extras.

title: Henry John Ball

text:
Henry John Ball (c. 1820 – August 20, 1874) was a Hong Kong Judge and government official. He was the Judge of the Court of Summary Jurisdiction and had acted on many position including the Chief Justice, Colonial Secretary, Attorney General and had sat on the Executive and Legislative Councils of Hong Kong.

Career

Judge Ball was born in 1820 to the son of barrister-at-law Henry Ball. Judge Ball went to Hong Kong to take the position of Judge of the Court of Summary Jurisdiction in July 1862. He had acted Chief Justice during the absence of W. H. Adams in 1863–64 and 1865 and during the absence of John Smale in 1872; he acted as Attorney General during twelve months' absence of John Smale in 1865–66 and 1868–69 and during Julian Pauncefote's sick leave in 1871; and acted as Colonial Secretary vice W. T. Mercer's absence in 1867. While he acted as Attorney General he was also provisional member of the Executive Council. He sat on the Legislative Council as acting Chief Justice and as an unofficial member in 1866–73.

Personal life
Judge Ball married Sarah Westle Maria Skelton at the Roman Catholic Cathedral in 1866. Several Hong Kong Government documents listed him as absent from meetings in 1873. It is probable he died in 1874 prior to the typhoon which hit Hong Kong on 22–23 September 1874. Judge Ball's residence, Ball's Court, situated at the Southeast corner at the junction of High Street and Western Street in Saiyingpun, was heavily damaged by the typhoon in 1874.

title: Dusicyon avus

text:
Dusicyon avus is an extinct species of cerdocyonine canid in the genus Dusicyon, native to South America during the Pleistocene and Holocene epochs. It was medium to large, about the size of a German shepherd. It was closely related to the Falkland Islands wolf (Dusicyon australis), which descended from a population of D. avus. It appears to have survived until very recently, perhaps 400 years ago.

Range
Dusicyon avus range extended through the Pampas and Patagonia in the south-central and southern parts of South America, with an estimated range of around 762 351 km². Its fossils have been found in the Luján Formation of Argentina, the Chui Formation of Brazil, the Milodón Cave in Chile and the Sopas Formation of Uruguay.

Diet and ecology
Its diet seems to have been more carnivorous than extant foxes based on δ13C and δ15N values, probably mostly preying on small mammals but also scavenging on large carcasses. This is in contrast the warrah, whose diet was restricted to the seabirds and seal pups available on the Falkland Islands. Morphologically, D. avus and D. australis are most similar to jackals, suggesting a similar ecological niche.

Relationship to humans
A grave of the late second millennium BCE at Loma de los Muertos in General Conesa, Río Negro Argentina contains a sub-adult D. avus, buried in a human mortuary context in a comparable manner to adjacent human burials. It may have been kept as a pet and been considered part of the human social group.

Extinction

Dating of extinction
Dusicyon avus, according to earlier estimates, became extinct around 1000 BCE, with possibilities that it became extinct as recently as 500 – 300 years BP. Recent research confirms more recent dates, with the last appearance datum in the Pampean Region being 700 BP (1232–1397 AD) and southernmost Patagonia at 400 years BP (1454–1626 AD).

Charles Darwin in The Voyage of the Beagle stated that "many sealers, Gauchos, and Indians, who have visited these islands [the Falklands], all maintain that no such animal [the warrah] is found in any part of South America" suggesting that it was unlikely to have been alive at this time. It is possible, but as yet unproven, that some populations of D. avus may have persisted until the time of European contact. Forty years before the introduction of the South American gray fox to Tierra del Fuego, there are some ethnographic references to the existence of two species of foxes there. Around 1900, the indigenous Ona were recorded as recognizing two varieties of foxes, one of which grew to unusual size. If the "big fox" was D. avus, this would indicate that it survived until the 20th century, at least in this location. In 1871 George Musters wrote a description of encountering a fox in Patagonia similar to a warrah, which may have been an account of this species.

Reasons for extinction
The extinction of D. avus as opposed to the naive D. australis is mysterious, as there is no clear reason why a generalised medium sized canid would go extinct, especially at such a late date after the Quaternary extinction event. There is no compelling evidence that climatic change was the cause of the extinction, nor any evidence that hybridisation with domestic dogs was the cause, as the skull morphology and DNA is consistent from the Late Pleistocene through the Holocene. Dusicyon was used for ritual purposes by aboriginal peoples in the Late Holocene, and appears to have a high symbolic value and its remains, usually teeth, are found in many archaeological sites. D. avus, despite its wide range, has a low genetic diversity in tested samples, suggesting a possible low population or genetic bottleneck before extinction. It is likely that a combination of both climatic and anthropogenic factors was the cause of their demise.

Public image and influence
From performance to visual media, Seulgi is an all-rounder artist. Brands often cite her positivity, creativity, passion for her craft, unique sensibility and style and cultural influence (especially among young Koreans) as reasons for why they choose her to represent them.

In Gallup Korea's Idol Preference poll, before its discontinuation in 2020, Seulgi ranked as one of the most popular idols. She topped the monthly "Individual Girl Group Members Brand Power Ranking" published by the Korean Corporate Reputation Research Institute several times. In a survey among soldiers doing mandatory military service in South Korea in 2019, Seulgi ranked as the fourth most popular female K-pop idol. She has also consistently placed high in the Korea Queer Women Community's annual poll due to admiration for her "girl crush" image.

Seulgi has also been recognized for her fashion sense. Her casual, chic and trendy style has made her an emerging leader in casual fashion and a reference for the MZ generation in South Korea. In particular, her influence on the rise of minimalist fashion among Koreans in their 20s and 30s has been highlighted. In her show Seulgi.zip, a mainly fashion-themed program, Seulgi discussed fashion items, style points and favorite trends with her guests and gave advice to her listeners. Seulgi became the first K-pop act to be selected as global ambassador for Italian luxury brand Salvatore Ferragamo, with the brand representative stating that they selected Seulgi for her popularity as a fashion icon, a successful performer, and an influential entertainer.

French company L'Occitane collaborated with Seulgi in 2019 for their "City Palette" campaign. Seulgi designed a city map for eco bags to convey the beauty of nature in cities that are heavily affected by pollution.

Due to Seulgi's love for the arts, Maronie Books asked Seulgi to translate their Art Museum By My Side project in 2020. The series is a collection of 35 artworks for each theme of Love, Happiness and Sleep, aiming to serve as guide to those who find it difficult to enjoy art due to lack of professional knowledge. Seulgi's translation of the book, originally written in English by Shana Gozansky, presented both the text and Seulgi's interpretations and featured notes on her personal favorites.

In November 2021, Seulgi joined the Lacoste and Peanuts "We Play Collective" campaign that aimed to promote harmony among diverse people, wherein participants selected famous Peanuts quotes and expressed them through drawings with motifs that symbolize Lacoste.

On February 10, 2022, Seulgi published a poster book with her very own artworks that she stated convey personal moments of happiness.

Ship service
Before the sinking, K-1 scored successes as a minelayer-submarine. On 11 August 1942, K-1 was damaged by a mine, but managed to make port on 14 August.

title: 2014 Sunkoshi blockage

text:
On 2 August 2014, due to heavy rainfall, a landslide occurred at the Sunkoshi river, killing 156 people and blocking the river to form an artificial lake in Sindhupalchok District, Nepal. Araniko Highway, the main (and only) artery of goods and people flow to China, was blocked by the landslide ripping out 5 km of highway, and causing huge traffic jam.

The landslide, which had a volume of 5.5 million cubic metres swept away 2 dozen houses.

This landslide had massive effects far beyond the local area, not evident from the pictures. The dammed river threatened to unleash a torrent of water upon hundreds of downstream villages that would have ravaged as far as Northern India. Despite the use of dynamite, it took the Nepali Army 45 days to dig a canal through the blockage to allow water in the lake to drain. The lake created was 47 meters deep and over 400 meters long. The hasty emergency draining through the lake canal itself caused damage to houses downstream and threatened to take out Lamusanghu Hydropower Dam.

2015 earthquakes
Following earthquakes in April and May 2015, concern was expressed that the dam might have become unstable leading to a risk of further flooding downstream of the blockage.
