title: Delft Aerospace Rocket Engineering

text:
Delft Aerospace Rocket Engineering is a student-run society within Delft University of Technology, with over 190 members. The main focus of the student group is the development of rocket technology on a non-profit basis. All development, from engines to electronics, is done in-house. Although several projects take place in DARE, the group's two flagship projects are Stratos and Project Sparrow. Stratos includes the Stratos I rocket which was launched in 2009 and set the European altitude record for amateur rocketry at 12.5 km. The follow-up of this rocket was the Stratos II+, which was launched on 16 October 2015, reaching an altitude of 21.5 km and breaking the European altitude record. In summer of 2018, Stratos III was launched, disintegrating 20 seconds after the launch. Its successor, Stratos IV, is currently in development. Project Sparrow is the newest project, working on a liquid-fueled rocket engine, which will be designed to go beyond the Kármán line. Even though DARE cooperates with the military to safely conduct launch campaigns, DARE's technology is strictly non-military. Approximately 70 percent of members come from the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering of Delft University of Technology, with the remaining 30% coming from other faculties, including Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics and Industrial Design. DARE also features a very high number of international students, with about half of the students coming from outside the Netherlands.

History
DARE was founded in 2001 by six students as a committee of the study association VSV Leonardo da Vinci of the Faculty of Aerospace Engineering on the TU Delft. The number of members has increased to over 190 in 2020. DARE is one of the university's Dreamteams, to which also Nuna, Forze and DUT Racing count. Over the years DARE has developed expertise in all three major rocket propulsion technologies (solid, liquid, and hybrid), with multiple conference papers published each year. 2009 marked DARE's Stratos I launch, which set the European altitude record of 12.5 km for student rockets. Afterwards, the development of Hybrid rocket engines was started, resulting in the 8 kN DHX-200 Aurora. This engine powered Stratos II, which after a failed launch campaign in 2014 broke the European altitude record for student rocketry in 2015.

Launches
DARE typically conducts two to four launch days each year for small scale rockets that go up to a maximum of two kilometers altitude. These launches take place on a military site near 't Harde in the North of the Netherlands. To go to higher altitudes, DARE occasionally participates in launch campaigns elsewhere in Europe.

Facilities
The work of DARE takes place at two locations at the TU Delft campus. The first is a manufacturing-orientated workshop (called the LaikaLab) in TU Delft's Dreamhall. Here the major parts of rocket production takes place. The second workshop is an office space for meetings, theoretical design, and electronics development. This facility (called the KorolevLab) is located in the EWI faculty of the university and run in cooperation with TU Delft's Robotics Institute.

Projects
DARE has a number of teams working on specific areas of rocket technology, logistics, promotion and sponsor acquisition.

Solid Propulsion
Most rockets of DARE run on solid propellant engines, which are developed and built by the Solid Six team and the Safety Board. The propellants used is either a mixture of sorbitol and potassium nitrate, known as rocket candy, or a mixture of Ammonium Nitrate and Aluminium called Alan-7. The scale of the developed engines ranges from 300 N up to 7000 N.

Hybrid Propulsion
After the launch of Stratos I, research to Hybrid rocket engines started within DARE. After extensive theoretical research, small scale testing (ranging from 500 to 1100 N) commenced to gain experience with the system and to select the optimal engine configuration. The selected fuel was a mixture of Sorbitol, Paraffin and Aluminium, combined with Nitrous Oxide as oxidizer. This work has resulted in several publications in several different journals including the journal of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Scaled-up versions of this engine are used to power Stratos II+ and III, the flagship projects of DARE.

Liquid Propulsion
While currently all large-scale engines developed by DARE are Nitrous Oxide - based Hybrid engines, logistics and manufacturing prevents this type of engine to be scaled up much further. For this reason, the development of LOX - Ethanol Liquid rocket engines is tackled within DARE. Past liquid engine developments have failed for a variety of reasons, but most prominently due to the mechanical complexity of this type of propulsion. The Cryogenic Engine Development subdivision of DARE aims to produce a 2-3 kN engine, to acquire the knowledge required for the society to tap into the technology. A future plan for this engine is potentially powering future Stratos missions.

Advanced Control Team
All DARE rockets are passively stabilised, with fin size and -location balanced such that the rocket turns into the wind once it clears the tower. As a consequence, medium to high crosswinds can severely limit the altitude a rocket can achieve. The Advanced Control Team is developing technology to actively stabilize the rocket during ascend.

Electronics
All PCB's and software are custom-made and developed in-house within DARE. They are used to deploy parachutes, control engines, and transmit radio data during and after launch.

SRP (Small Rocket Project)
The Small Rocket Project (colloquially known as the Scrambled Eggs Competition) is DARE's program to introduce first year members and other interested students to the basic principles of hands-on rocketry. The aim of the project is to launch a rocket to an altitude of 1 km with an uncooked egg on board and returning this egg intact. To help students achieve this goal the project starts out with several lectures explaining the fundamentals of rocketry, rocket stability and the design of parachutes. These lectures are given by senior DARE members, who are also mentors that advise and guide the groups during the project. The groups are largely free in their designs, although every rocket has to pass a final safety check, and the solid rocket motors for the rockets are provided by DARE. The project concludes with a launch day at a military testing range, where each design is put to the test.

Cansat
DARE is also actively involved in providing the launch service for the Dutch CanSat project. In particular, DARE develops, produces, tests, and launches the CanSat launchers (CSL). Over the years these launcher have undergone several development iterations, balancing reliability, producibility, and payload capacity. The current CSL Version 7 consists of an all-Aluminium frame and, propelled by a solid rocket motor, can lift about five to six CanSats to an altitude of one kilometer. The CSL V7 has recently been used as a flying testbed to test new technologies developed by DARE.

Aether
In 2015, the Aether project was kicked off. It focusses on demonstrating several new technologies developed within DARE, that can later on be implemented in larger projects. It includes:
 Active canard stabilization suitable for transonic flight
 A 7 kN Solid engine
 An advanced ballistic parachute deployment mechanism, as was found required by the Stratos II+ launch campaign

Safety Board
The Safety Board does not actively develop rockets, but consists of experienced DARE members, that can join the Safety Board after a minimum of one-year training. The Safety Board oversees testing done in DARE, checks rockets prior to launch, and is responsible for all safety-related elements of DARE's work. The Safety Board can overrule any safety-related decision.

Project Sparrow
Project Sparrow is the newest initiative of DARE, towards building the society’s first liquid-propelled, thrust-vectoring rocket engine, which will be named Firebolt. It shall provide the required power and control using a LOX – Ethanol engine, to build rockets that go beyond the 100 km Kármán line. This engine will be the successor to the hybrid-powered Nimbus used in the DARE Stratos IV rocket, powering DARE’s next generation of high-performance rockets, and will be the first step towards sending the first student-designed rocket into orbit around Earth.

Project Sparrow will eventually develop a flight-ready engine, which could be integrated by DARE into a sounding rocket; the sounding rocket will also be a testbed for validating rocket dynamics with the thrust-vectoring engine. The rocket eventually will incorporate staging and recovery systems.

Stratos

Stratos I
Stratos I set the record for the highest altitude achieved by a student rocket, at 12.5 km. It was launched from Esrange in Sweden in 2009. It was a two-staged solid rocket, powered by boosters developed and built within DARE. After a successful ascent, the parachutes failed to deploy and both stages crashed. The achieved altitude and the crash location could be gathered from the launch range equipment, making it possible to retrieve the second stage after the launch. The first stage was only accidentally found back 8 years later, during a routine check of the launch site.

Stratos II/II+

The Stratos II+ rocket was DARE's biggest undertaking and originally aimed to reach 50 km. However after design changes and updated simulations it became unlikely that this altitude could be reached. Stratos II+ was successfully launched on 16 October 2015 from El Arenosillo of Instituto Nacional de Técnica Aeroespacial, close to the city of Sevilla in Spain. It reached an altitude of 21.5 km, with which it broke the previous record for student rocketry. The rocket was initially known as the Stratos II but failed to launch in October 2014. Design improvements were made after which the rocket was named Stratos II+.

Stratos II+ was powered by a single-stage hybrid engine, the DHX-200 Aurora which has a peak output of 11 kN. The engine has a total impulse of 180 kNs and burns for approximately 23 seconds. After this the engine is cut and the rocket continued on coast to its apogee. Stratos II+ carried several scientific payloads on board to do measurements in the higher atmosphere. Among these are an experiment on radio astronomy from the Radboud University Nijmegen, a camera system with video link from the company DelftDynamics  and a geiger counter from the Hungarian Academy of Sciences' Centre for Energy research.

An overview of the launch attempts of Stratos II and II+ is shown in the table below.

Stratos III

Stratos III is an expendable sounding rocket developed by the student rocketry team Delft Aerospace Rocket Engineering of the TU Delft. The project started in 2016 as a successor of the Stratos II+ mission with the purpose of reclaiming the European altitude record for student rocketry, currently owned by the German team HyEnD.

The Stratos III rocket is 8.2 m tall and is powered by the DHX-400 Nimbus, a 360 kNs impulse hybrid rocket engine. The DHX-400 Nimbus utilizes nitrous oxide as its oxidizer and a mixture of paraffin, sorbitol and aluminum powder for the fuel. The oxidizer tank is made out of carbon fiber with an aluminium liner and is capable of storing 174 kg of nitrous oxide at a pressure of 60 bar. The DHX-400 is the most powerful amateur built hybrid engine in the world, with a peak thrust of 25 kN.

The rocket carries a scientific payload from NLR, which is a prototype IMU for the proposed future European SMILE launcher. Additionally Stratos III has full 360 degree live stream downlink.

At apogee the nosecone with payload separates from the oxidizer tank and propulsion system. After this a parachute deployment device opens a drogue parachute and main parachute to ensure a safe landing of 13 m/s in the Atlantic Ocean. After this, the nosecone is recovered by a boat. Stratos III is launched from El Arenosillo, similar to Stratos II+. The launch window opens at July 16, 2018 and closes at July 27, 2018. An overview of the launch attempts is shown in the table below.

The second launch attempt was initially scheduled for July 25 at 11 PM CEST. However, with a 100% weather-GO, a significant delay occurred when pressurizing the nitrous oxide tank. This led to the launch being delayed to July 26 3:30 AM. After a successful launch, an anomaly occurred 20 seconds into the flight, resulting in a loss of the vehicle.

Stratos IV

After the in-flight disintegration of Stratos III, an investigation was begun to determine the cause of the vehicles demise. The team behind the investigation consisted of members of the Stratos III team as well as the newly formed Stratos IV team. The main sources of information were the telemetry streamed back from the vehicle during its 20 seconds of flight (giving data from the two IMUs onboard as well as the GPS receiver and pressure sensors), as well as the ground measurements taken using radar and Doppler. These sources allowed the team to piece together a picture of the path Stratos III followed during its flight. From this data it was concluded that the vehicle underwent a phenomenon known as roll-pitch coupling, or inertia coupling. This occurs when the vehicles roll rate matches the natural pitch frequency of the vehicle. This causes the vehicle to move in a conical motion rather than a linear motion, and when the two frequencies couple, the vehicle becomes unstable and diverges from its flight path, causing it to break up.

When the goal of Stratos IV was considered, the engine performance/vehicle mass combination of Stratos III bore a large influence. This combination was seen to give simulated apogees approaching 100 km, or the Karman line. As reaching this altitude is the long term goal of the Stratos project, it was decided to iterate upon the design of Stratos III. Thus the Stratos IV project is focusing on minimizing the mass of the vehicle, while keeping the internal engine geometry, which took three years to develop, fixed. The design of Stratos IV was unveiled on February 12, 2019.

The design changes in comparison to Stratos III are:

 Weight saving
Composite Combustion Chamber (6 kg lighter than the aluminium equivalent)
Twaron Nosecone (2 kg lighter than the glass fibre equivalent)
3D Printed Titanium Nozzle (12 kg lighter than the fully graphite equivalent)
Roll-Pitch Coupling Mitigation
Conical Interfaces between Modules (More rigid than the previous flat interfaces)
Engine Bay Shell (More rigid than the longeron version, with improved accessibility)
Larger Fins (More consistent static margin during flight)
Roll Control Module using Nitrous Oxide Propellant Thrusters
Varia
5 Cameras (Four radial, one downward facing, and one looking through the recovery plate to view tank separation and parachute deployment)
Hot Gas Deployment Device (Fewer components, thus higher reliability than the cold gas equivalent)

The Stratos IV launch campaign was held in late 2021 at the El Arenosillo Test center. After technical issues on several attempts, the rocket was not launched and the campaign ended.

title: Digambara Patra

text:
Digambara Patra is a professor of Chemistry at the American University of Beirut.

Education
Digambara earned a PhD degree in Chemistry working with Professor A. K. Mishra at Indian Institute of Technology Madras. Subsequently, he spent in University of Basel, Switzerland, Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany and Waseda University in Tokyo, Japan for his postdoctoral studies before joining American University of Beirut. He is a recipient of Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellowship and JSPS Postdoctoral Fellowship. His research focuses on nanochemistry and optical sensing. He was listed among the world's top 2 % scientist by Stanford University in 2020.

Research
With Professor A. K. Mishra at Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Digambara discovered that Synchronous Fluorescence Scan are the easy, fast and sensitive approach to determine adulteration of petroleum fuel which itself is a serious problem in South Asia. They attributed that the presence of extensive inner filter effects and resonance energy transfer in petroleum fuels are the major causes of the distinctive characteristics of these spectra in adulterated samples. Together both the authors later on developed total synchronous fluorescence scan spectra to understand petroleum products and showed that total synchronous fluorescence scan profile is different from excitation emission matrix fluorescence.
Digambara along with his collaborator Dr. Rohit Kumar Rana at Indian Institute of Chemical Technology designed a new type of microcapsule-embedded fluorescent molecule that has the potential to measure hydrogen ion concentration in cells under physiological conditions and also to estimate ammonia concentration in environmental samples. He is one of the few researchers to work on use of Curcumin, a molecule obtained form food spice Turmeric, for preparing metallic nanoparticles using green synthetic routes to tune nanoparticle shape/size and towards various sensing applications. His research also modifies curcumin using nanotechnology for selective sensing and to improve its delivery and biomedical applications. His research first time showed that curcumin can be applied a membrane fluorescence probe to study liposomes properties.

View on educational and infrastructure development
Over the years, Digambara along with Professor Chitta Baral and group of other Indian educationists in abroad have been critical over the "regional imbalances" in education in India, which triggered political debate in India. He collaborated, wrote and campaigned with Prof. Baral in various projects for the education, infrastructure and other development in Odisha. Subsequently, National Institute of Science Education and Research was established in Bhubaneswar and Indian Government established Indian Institute of Technology, Indian Institutes of Management and Central Universities  across Indian states to overcome regional imbalances. When Indian policy makers are largely focussed to build national institutions in metro and cities, Digambara has been advocating the development of higher education in rural part of Indian and establishing rural university, IIT and other national universities in semi-urban and rural India. He has been a strong critic of recent establishment of higher educational institutions such as national universities, Indian Institute of Technology, Indian Institute of Science, Indian Institute of Management, etc. in state capitals, metro and trier II cities of India and emphasizes that such institutions should rather be built in semi-urban rural clusters of India to reduce gap between rich cities and underdeveloped region of India. Despite his advocacy for higher educational institution in semi-urban area, Dr Patra was vocal in protesting when Odisha Government decided to establish Central University of Orissa at Koraput. In his protest against the move, Dr Patra filed a Public Interest Litigation in Supreme Court of India against State Govt. of India and central Government of India, which the court registered but later on closed the case citing no violation of legality was found. He continued his protest saying he was not against establishing Central University of Orissa at Koraput rather than due to fact that the state Government took a decision against Kalahandi based on political agenda and consideration at the last movement. He contested along with many other local groups with evidences that the argument by Odisha state Government about non availability of land for establishing a Central University in Kalahandi was false. Later on his petition to Prime Minister of India was forwarded to Ministry Human Resource Development (MHRD) in 2008 for appropriate action, MHRD subsequently said based on letter of Sri Bikram Keshari Deo, then Member of Parliament of Kalahandi, the ministry could consider to establish a branch of Indira Gandhi National Tribal University, Amarkantak in Kalahandi. Subsequently, on 26 Dec 2008 he wrote to Odisha Government to covert Government Autonomous College Bhawanipatna to a University in the line of University tag given to Ravenshaw College, UCE Burla and Khallikote College. Coincidentally next day on 27 Dec 2008 Odisha chief minister announced an Engineering College and an Agriculture College at Bhawanipatna keeping his earlier promise. However, the demand to covert Government Autonomous College Bhawanipatna to a University was further taken by students and local leaders for over a decade. Finally, Odisha Government announced to convert Government Autonomous College Bhawanipatna to a University in Feb 2019, just before the assembly election. He was also vocal to establish a Government medical college or health University in Kalahandi instead of a private medical college, this helped in local and public pressure, the state Government subsequently announced a Government medical college in Kalahandi. He also initiated and campaigned for a Central Agriculture University or a state agriculture university in Kalahandi because of the agriculture potential in the region and central location, and took to local MP, subsequently then Union minister of Agriculture asked Odisha Govt. to study this referring to letter by Kalahandi MP and before election of 2014 Odisha Govt. had included in its manifesto to establish second Agriculture University in an area under Kalahandi Balangir Koraput Region. But no progress has been made, Kalahandi Sikhya Vikas Parishad and local people have been demanding the same.

Among few Non-resident Indian, Digambara, is of opinion that railway infrastructure development is one of the keys to success and can bring economic prosperity to such a backward region arguing for establishing railway factory in place like Kalahandi. He initiated demands for a rail factory of KBK region, especially in Kalahandi in 2008 and wrote a letter to then General Secretary of Indian National Congress Party, Rahul Gandhi. In the railway budget 2010–11, one of the railway Wagon Factories was proposed in Bhubaneswar/Kalahandi, but Dr Patra exposed the state Government when it sent a proposal for railway Wagon Factory in Ganjam citing non-availability of railway land in Kalahandi, Digambara criticized the move saying the proposed land in Ganjam was not railway land too. He questioned the motive behind Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik's stand when in 2009 Naveen Patnaik wrote to former railway minister Lalu Prasad Yadav emphasizing the need to improve the rail network in the Kalahandi Balangir Koraput Region and establishment of a rail coach factory in a backward area of Orissa-hinting to locate in one of the Kalahandi Balangir Koraput Region districts. Later on Kalahandi MP Bhakta Charan Das took the issue to the Parliament of India, thus making central Govt. included a Wagon Maintenance Workshop in Kalahandi in 2013-14 railway budget. Again this was shifted to Vishakapatnam (Vadlapudi) because of technical reason. Moreover, he continue writing on this issue and in the 2017-18 union budget, an Electric Loco Periodical Overhauling Workshop was announced to be set up in Kalahandi with an investment of Rs 186 crore. Dr Patra has been mobilizing to develop railway infrastructure and other social development in rural India, specially in Odisha, Chhattisgarh, MP etc. from where Indian railway makes most-profit but invest little in railway infrastructure development and establishing railway factories. Despite ECOR being one of the most profit making zones of Indian railways, he has charged railway ministry being unfair to Odisha and Chhattisgarh since decades, whereas many loss-making projects in Bihar and West Bengal were given favourable approval due to influence of former railway ministers. He cites major railway development and factories were approved in Raebareli, Amethi, Chapra, etc. only due to favoritism of powerful political leaders rather than due to actual source of raw materials like coal or iron supply for railway's own requirements, for instance, he compares site in Kalahandi of Odisha, located at the close junction of three India's public sector steel plants in Bhilai, Rourkela and Visakhapatnam, close to Mahanadi Coal Limited's coal blocks in Angul and Jharsuguda  as well as nearer to National alumina supplier (NALCO), is ideal location to get raw materials supply for Indian railway to establish railway coach and manufacturing factory against the site selected in Raebareli or Chhapra where no coal, alumina or iron is available in its close proximity. He appealed to established railway university in Odisha-Chhattisgarh border. Poor connectivity of train and railway network in tribal pocket of India has been another his concern. The 56 km Lanjigarh road-Junagarh line of Lanjigarh road-Amaguda route took 25 years to get completed. However, surveyed Junagarh-Ambaguda portion of this route has not yet been approved which will bring railway connection to tribal dominated Nabarangur district. He has been continuously writing since a decade to speed up Junagarh -Nabrangpur railway line works which has a rate of return above 14 percent. He also writes on to bring reform in Governance, livelihood and development of Odisha, Kalahandi Balangir Koraput Region and Kalahandi district's development.

title: Sóley

text:
Sóley Stefánsdóttir (born 20 October 1987), better known simply as Sóley, is an Icelandic multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter.

Career
Sóley studied classical and jazz style piano as a child and later went to the Icelandic Art Academy to study composition to become a proficient pianist and guitarist. Although hailing from Iceland, she sings primarily in English both in her solo and group work. She became part of the seven-piece Icelandic indie-folk band, Seabear, in 2006. Signed to the record label, Morr Music, the band have so far released two albums and an EP, on which Sóley predominantly provides piano and backing vocals.

Under the same label, Sóley released her first solo EP in 2010, titled Theater Island. The following year, she went on to release We Sink, her first full-length album. Critical response was largely positive, with praise often aimed at the "delightful and beautiful" piano play and the delicate vocal delivery. The songwriting was also celebrated for its "dream-like" quality and "dark surrealism". Sóley herself described her lyrics as "Dreamy, surrealistic and in their own world", expressing her hope that listeners will decipher their own meaning from the words.  In 2013, a track from the album, Fight Them Soft, was used in the soundtrack to an episode of the E4 comedy-drama Misfits.

A piano album composed and performed entirely by Sóley, entitled Krómantík, was released on 18 July 2014 along with sheet music and illustrations to accompany each of the pieces. About the album, Sóley elaborated, "I always wanted to do a piano album, ever since I was in the art academy," she explains. "Some of the pieces on Krómantík were written while studying – and the first track ‘Stiklur’, for example, was originally part of a bigger composition for piano that I wrote. However, in the end I didn't use that many pieces from school, just because I liked doing new songs, and so a lot of them were written for a bigger art project I worked on during the summer after I finished We Sink." She further described the mood of the album, stating, "In the night or when it’s cold and rainy outside, sit in a chair in your living room and listen. If you feel like it, move a little. Imagine a little out-of-tune piano in one corner, then imagine old hands. Those old hands have a story to tell. Those hands are almost unreal but it’s hard to tell only by listening. Those hands will play until Krómantík fades into silence and your closed eyes slowly start seeing something much deeper and darker."

Her second LP, Ask the Deep, was released on 8 May 2015. To promote the new material, she made appearances at various festivals, including ATP Iceland, Rauðasandur Festival and Iceland Airwaves in 2014. Sóley then embarked on another extensive European tour and released a new EP, Don't Ever Listen. The 5 tracks were initially recorded as early demos for her second album and though dismissed by the singer at first because she wanted the album to have less guitar presence, she was convinced to compile and release them by her boyfriend. There are also plans for a further two EPs that will each focus on a different instrument - accordion and organ respectively - that together with the piano based Krómantík will form something of a trilogy.

Sóley's third LP, Endless Summer, was released in May 2017, and a European tour was announced in support of the new material. Throughout the same year, she is also taking part in a collaborative project with fellow Icelandic artists, Sin Fang and Örvar Þóreyjarson Smárason (from the band Múm), which sees the trio release a new song each month, making twelve in total, and released as Team Dreams in 2018

Personal life

Sóley was born in Hafnarfjörður, a small town outside of Reykjavík.  She finds her writing inspiration mostly from poets and comes from a musical family, with her father being a trombone player and music teacher. Her younger brother, Eiríkur, and younger sister are also musicians.

She now lives in the capital with her husband, Jón gamli úr Niðurkoti. She took a brief break from recording and touring when she gave birth to her first daughter in March 2014. Sóley has been vegan since her daughter was born.

title: Ronald J. Ross

text:
Ronald J. Ross is a Cleveland, Ohio radiologist known for research on brain injury in professional and amateur boxers and for the first clinical use of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (NMR later known as MRI) on human patients. Ross is also credited with the first use of head and whole body computed tomography imaging (CT) in a private clinical setting in the United States.

Biography

Early life and education

Ross is one of three children born of Lithuanian and Russian immigrants. He grew up and attended school in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. Ross earned his undergraduate degree from Case Western Reserve University in 1956 and received his medical degree from Albert Einstein College of Medicine in 1960.

Career
After completing his internship and residency in radiology in Cleveland, Ross was awarded a Fulbright scholarship and Government of Sweden Award in 1964 to complete his fellowship studies in radiology at Karolinska University Hospital. In the mid-1970s, he opened the first U.S. based private diagnostic imaging center that featured a whole body CT scanner for clinical use. In 1981, he performed the world's first MRI clinical studies on patients.

Ross's medical research includes brain damage in boxers and the MRI evaluation of diseases of the breast. Ross was as an abstractor for radiology journals. In 1983, his study of brain injuries in professional and amateur boxers was published by the Journal of the American Medical Association; the study drew global attention, stirred up controversy in the boxing world and spurred the American Medical Association to call for stricter medical supervision of the sport in the United States.

In 1998, Ross was elected to the National Fulbright Association Board of Trustees in Washington, D.C., and served as its national president from 1998 to 2000.

Ross retired from the practice of medicine in 2000 after a career that spanned 40 years. He is currently the Director Emeritus of the Department of Radiology and Chairman of the Board of Trustees at Hillcrest Hospital-Cleveland Clinic Health System and serves on the Board of Directors and Board of Trustees of the Cleveland Clinic.

Personal life

Ross is married to Helen Manas Ross and they have 3 grown children.

title: Callicarpa

text:
Callicarpa (beautyberry) is a genus of shrubs and small trees in the family Lamiaceae. They are native to east and southeast Asia (where the majority of the species occur), Australia, Madagascar, southeast North America and South America.

Growth

The temperate species are deciduous, the tropical species evergreen. The leaves are simple, opposite, and 5–25 cm long. The flowers are in clusters, white to pinkish. The fruit is a berry, 2–5 mm diameter and pink to red-purple with a highly distinctive metallic lustre, are very conspicuous in clusters on the bare branches after the leaves fall. The berries last well into the winter or dry season and are an important survival food for birds and other animals, though they will not eat them until other sources are depleted. The berries are highly astringent but are made into wine and jelly. Callicarpa species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species in Asia including Endoclita malabaricus and Endoclita undulifer.

Familiar species

American beautyberry Callicarpa americana is native to the southeastern United States. It can typically reach 1 to 2 meters in height. A jelly can be made from its ripe berries.

Ornamental varieties of Callicarpa americana have been bred to have pink or white berries.

Bodinier's beautyberry Callicarpa bodinieri, native to west-central China (Sichuan, Hubei, Shaanxi), is more cold-tolerant than C. americana, and is the species most widely cultivated in northwestern Europe. It can reach 3 meters tall.
Japanese beautyberry Callicarpa japonica, native to Japan, is also cultivated in gardens. It is called Murasakishikibu in Japanese, in honor of Murasaki Shikibu.
Purple beautyberry Callicarpa dichotoma, native to Japan, China, and Korea.

Uses

Insect repellent
American beautyberry has been used as a folk remedy to prevent mosquito bites.  Four chemicals isolated from Callicarpa have been shown to act as insect repellents: borneol, callicarpenal, intermedeol, and spathulenol.   The use of callicarpenal has been patented by the United States Department of Agriculture's Agriculture Research Service as a mosquito repellent.

Anticancer activity
The beautyberry leaves have been shown to possess anticancer activity against human lung adenocarcinoma cell line, A549 via alteration of the redox homeostasis.

title: Luk (band)

text:
Luk (stylised as Lюk) was a Ukrainian music band from Kharkiv. The band's style joins acid jazz, lounge and rock. In their texts musicians used mostly Ukrainian, Russian and French.

Luk was formed in 1999. The name was given accidentally without special meaning (люк means manhole). After released four studio albums Luk declared its break up in 2011.

Luk collaborated with Kharkiv-based Ukrainian writer Serhiy Zhadan. Most of their Ukrainian-language songs were witten in lyrics of Zhadan (in particular the first album Tourist zone is based on Zhadan's play "Merry Christmas, Jesus Christ"). Also Luk recorded a lot of songs with 5'Nizza member Andriy Zaporozhets (in particular the second album is a result of collaboration with Zaporozhets). Their third album contains two songs recorded with other 5'Nizza musician Serhiy Babkin.

title: I Don't Trust Men Anymore

text:
I Don't Trust Men Anymore (Spanish: Yo no creo en los hombres) is a Mexican telenovela produced by Giselle González for Televisa. It is based on Yo no creo en los hombres (1991), produced in México.  Critically acclaimed, it was the most awarded novela of 2014 and is widely considered to be one of the best telenovelas of the decade.

Alejandro Camacho, Adriana Louvier and Gabriel Soto star as the protagonists, while Flavio Medina, Azela Robinson and Rosa María Bianchi star as the main antagonists.

Production of Yo no creo en los hombres officially started on July 7, 2014.

Plot
María Dolores (Adriana Louvier) is a poor and noble girl who has a great talent for making couture dresses. When her father is killed in a robbery, she has to take the responsibility of supporting for her family. Just before the death of her father, she had quit working at the couture workshop as María Dolores was tired of the harassment she was subjected by Jacinto, her supervisor; however, María Dolores now has to reconsider returning to the shop because it depends on the future of her mother Esperanza (Macaria) and Clara (Eleane Puell), her sister.

When she decides to denounce Jacinto, she meets Maximiliano Bustamante (Gabriel Soto), an attractive and very honest lawyer who is deeply impressed by her beauty and offers to help her. Although there is no attraction between them, they both have commitments, but that changes as María Dolores and Maximiliano get to know each other.

title: Alauddin Johan Syah

text:
Sultan Alauddin Johan Syah (died 1760) was the twenty-fourth sultan of Aceh in northern Sumatra. He represented the second generation of the Bugis dynasty of Aceh and ruled from 1735 to 1760.

Rivalry for the throne

Originally named Pocut Auk (or Pocut Uk), the future sultan was the eldest son of the preceding Sultan Alauddin Ahmad Syah. When the latter died in May or June 1735 the succession became contested. At this time, dynastic succession was not automatically from father to eldest son but was dependent on the approval of the three sagis (regions) of the kingdom. A previous sultan, Jamal ul-Alam Badr ul-Munir who had been deposed and exiled in 1726, now came forward and claimed the throne. Since Jamal ul-Alam was a sayyid, descendant of the Prophet, he carried a certain prestige. However, Purbawangsa, panglima (headman) of the XXV Mukims, one of the three Acehnese sagis, proclaimed Pocut Auk under the throne name Sultan Alauddin Johan Syah. Jamal ul-Alam was ensconced in the Baiturrahman Grand Mosque in the capital but was shot at from the fortress and withdrew to Kampong Jawa. While the XXII Mukims and XXV Mukims supported Sultan Alauddin Johan Syah, the XXVI Mukims supported Jamal ul-Alam.

Exploits of Pocut Muhammad

The following civil war has been described in circumstantial detail in the Acehnese epic Hikayat Pocut Muhammad. The hero of the story, Pocut Muhammad, was the youngest brother of Sultan Alauddin. In spite of the sultan's admonitions not to attack a descendant of the Prophet, Pocut Muhammad went to Pidië and collected troops. His efforts were successful, and he returned to the area of the capital with a large army. Jamal ul-Alam was attacked at Kampong Jawa and suffered a complete defeat. By dressing in women's cloths he was able to sneak away, dying some time later in Kampong Kandang. Sultan Alauddin Johan Syah was now acknowledged by the three sagis. According to the various accounts, the civil war lasted for either four months or ten years. The dire economic consequences are mentioned in a Dutch report from April 1736: no ships from Aceh visited the important port town Barus in West Sumatra, "which was blamed on the demise of the king and the subsequent division of the kingdom between the son of the deceased and another one, who had previously ruled as king but had again been deposed."

New uprisings

After the defeat of Jamal ul-Alam, Sultan Alauddin seems to have enjoyed a long and relatively peaceful reign. However, fresh trouble erupted in 1757 or 1759. One of the sagis, the XXII Mukims, was governed by the panglima Sri Muda Perkasa of the Panglima Polim line, descendants of Iskandar Muda. He was dissatisfied with the trading policy of the sultan who tried to redirect trade and the collection of duties to the capital Kutaraja. He unfolded the banner of rebellion and marched against the capital, allegedly supported by 20,000 men. When he came to Lamsepong his troops came under fire from the sultan's soldiers. After having held out in Lamsepong for two months Sri Muda Perkasa withdrew. Meanwhile, the Seven Years' War between the European powers affected the East Indies. Already in 1750 a French fleet is reported to have sought shelter in Aceh, to the consternation of the British in India. Ten years later two French warships under Comte d'Estaing cooperated with the Panglima Laut (sea commander) of Aceh. Acenese vessels accompanied d'Estaing when he attacked and captured the British ports Natal and Tapanuli (Sumatra's west coast) in February 1760. This was a prelude to Acehnese attempts to regain their power on the west coast under the next reign.

The circumstances of Sultan Alauddin's demise are somewhat murky; according to at least one chronicle he was deposed by the panglimas, perhaps as a consequence of the rebellion of Sri Muda Perkasa. At any rate he died in late August 1760, leaving a son called Tuanku Raja. The latter was proclaimed sultan under the name Alauddin Mahmud Syah I but only found general acceptance in December in the same year.

title: Sufism in Pakistan

text:
Sufism known as Tasawwuf in the Arabic-speaking world, is a form of Islamic mysticism that emphasizes introspection and spiritual closeness with the God. It is a mystical form of Islam, a school of practice that emphasizes the inward search for The God and shuns materialism. About 60% Muslims in Pakistan regard themselves as followers of Sufi saints.

Sufi traditions
Most of the Sufis in Pakistan relate to the four main tariqa (silsila): Chishti, Naqshbandi, Qadiri-Razzaqi and Suhrawardi.

Contemporary influence
There are two levels of Sufism in Pakistan. The first is the 'populist' Sufism of the rural population. This level of Sufism involves belief in intercession through saints, veneration of their shrines and forming bonds with a pir (saint). Many rural Pakistani Muslims associate with pirs and seek their intercession. The second level of Sufism in Pakistan is 'intellectual Sufism' which is growing among the urban and educated population. They are influenced by the writings of Sufis such as the medieval theologian al-Ghazali, the Sufi reformer Shaykh Aḥmad Sirhindi and Shah Wali Allah.

Attacks on Sufi shrines
Sufism, a mystical Islamic tradition, has a long history and a large popular following in Pakistan. Popular Sufi culture is centred on Thursday night gatherings at shrines and annual festivals which feature Sufi music and dance.  Most Islamic fundamentalists criticise its popular character, which in their view, does not accurately reflect the teachings and practice of the Prophet and his companions.

Since March 2005, 209 people have been killed and 560 injured in 29 different terrorist attacks targeting shrines devoted to Sufi saints in Pakistan, according to data compiled by the Center for Islamic Research Collaboration and Learning (CIRCLe). The attacks are generally attributed to banned militant organisations.

The Sehwan Sharif shrine was the site of a suicide bombing in 2017 carried out by the Islamic State.

title: 215th Infantry Division (Wehrmacht)

text:
The 215th Infantry Division (215.Infanterie-Division) was a major military unit of the German Army that served in World War II.

Combat History
The 215th Infantry division was mobilized in September 1939 as a division of the 3rd wave in military district V. Its personnel was composed mostly of older men, many who were veterans of the first world war, and reserve troops with limited training.

The division was almost immediately sent to the west and took up defensive positions in the dank and damp bunkers of the west-wall, in winter temperature that sunk to below freezing. After some weeks it was withdrawn into training areas behind the front for further training and reorganization
and many of the older troops and junior offices were replaced by younger men. By Mid March 1940 it was returned to the front in the Saar where it set about improving defensive positions under desultory French artillery fire.

The division only took part in the later stages of the invasion of France, when the campaign had essentially already been decided, attacking the Maginot line on 19 July 1940.

Attack on the Maginot line

In spite of the rough terrain of the Vosges mountains its chances of successful attack were elevated by the French removal of interval troops, withdrawn to meet the German breakthroughs elsewhere. The lack of interval troops meant that the German assault teams had a much higher chance of closing on the French defenses, surrounding them and blasting them out from close range. One advantage the French defenders retained was fire from two artillery forts anchoring their line in the Vosages, the Grand-Hohékirkel and Four-à-Chaux

For the assault, the 215 division formed two battle groups based on Infantry Regiments 380 and 435, reinforced with pioneers and proceeded by a heavy 2 hour long bombardment from divisional and attached heavy artillery. Dive bomber support was also available from the Luftwaffe. In the initial attack, battle group 380 captured 2 blockhouses by clambering on their roofs and dropping explosive charges into their embrasures. Utilizing the gap in the line, further casements were outflanked and attacked from the rear, by nightfall 6 blockhouses had been captured in its sector.
The fortress of Four-à-Chaux consisted of six blocks of which four had artillery pieces, its 75mm gun had the longest range and covered the blockhouses to its left.
It also had shorter range 81mm and 135mm weapons. These weapons poured fire on the 435th Regiment attack, whilst the further blockhouses were covered by the more distant 75mm gun turret of the Grand Grand Hohékirkel. The Germans had found the French artillery support heavy but hampered by lack of direct observation ineffective.
The assault group from the 435 Infantry Regiment had similar success, so that the division was poised to exploit the breaches the following morning.

The divisions forces moved rapidly south, capturing the Pechelbronn oilfields, its primary objective, and linking up with
257 Infantry division coming from the north west. In the two days of fighting the division had captured 1460 prisoners, but casualties included 31 dead and 108 wounded.

Following the cease fire the division became an occupation unit in central France, where it remained until November 1941, when it was hurriedly loaded onto trains for transport to the east.

Soviet Union
52nd Soviet Army began a series of attacks against the 126th Infantry positions which, under pressure from four rifle divisions, and after several days of combat, gave way allowing the Soviet to threaten the supply lines into Tichvin at Gruzino. The newly arriving units 215th infantry division was hurriedly rushed up in support took over a wide sector in freezing temperatures reaching under 30 °C, with deep snow, lying in places over a meter deep and soon became embroiled in fending off repeated Soviet attacks. By the start of December it was clear to the German leadership that the thrust at Tichvin was unsustainable and the units involved were out on a limb.

The combination of overstretched fronts, depleted units under increasing Soviet pressure, deteriorating weather conditions, and a shaky supply situation meant that the front had to be brought back. von Leeb persuaded a reluctant Hitler, and pulled the front back to the line of the Volkov, a withdrawal that was complete by 23 December. In its short commitment east of the Volkov the division had already had over 500 combat casualties, including 29 officers, and suffered an additional 603 frostbite cases.

Once back on line of the Volkov river line, the German line stabilized, but the Soviets continued their attacks into the new year.

On 13 January 1942, after a short reorganization, the Soviet Volkov front unleashed further attacks all along the line. In the sector of the 2nd Shock army, after a heavy artillery preparation, the ground assault troops struck the juncture of the 215 and 126th Infantry divisions, causing a shaky response from the former. The front had been penetrated, but so far the German major strong points were still holding out. It took another two attempts over 8 days to finally capture the villages of Spasskaia Polist, Mosti and Miasnoi Bor, and create a narrow but deep penetration of 7–8 miles, in heavy and costly fighting for both sides.

In July the division was withdrawn from the front, and after a brief rest and refit near Tosno, was given a defensive sector on the Leningrad siege lines by Staro Panowo and Urizk. Although now positioned in a quieter area the division often had to supply battle groups to other units in 'fire-brigade' actions.

Further heavy defensive fighting developed in January 1944 when the German defensive around Leningrad finally crumbled. The division retreated through Luga and finally took up positions in the Panther line, which it defended until May 1944. Following another short refit, the division was committed again to the front, and retreated with Army Group North back through Estonia, Riga into Courland where the whole army group became trapped, and supplied only via sea. After fighting in the initial Courland defensive battles, the division was relieved and shipped back to Germany, to West Prussia. The remnant of the division finally capitulated at the end of the war in the Hela Paninsula.

title: Toccara Montgomery

text:
Toccara Montgomery (born December 30, 1982 in Cleveland, Ohio) is a retired amateur American freestyle wrestler, who competed in the women's heavyweight category. She won four U.S. national titles (2001–2004), scored two silver medals in the 68 and 72-kg division at the World Championships (2001 and 2003), and finished seventh at the 2004 Summer Olympics, considering one of the most dominant female wrestlers in United States sporting history.

A graduate of University of the Cumberlands, Montgomery has also served as a member of the wrestling squad for the Cumberlands Patriots, and eventually became a graduate assistant coach for three consecutive seasons. Since 2010, Montgomery has been currently working as a full-time head coach for the women's wrestling squad at Lindenwood University in Saint Charles, Missouri.

Career

Early years
Montgomery began her sporting career at the age of fifteen, when she checked out a practice for the newly formed wrestling squad at East Technical High School in Cleveland. Despite that the sport had been exclusively competed only by men, Montgomery joined and then trained full-time for the team under her head coach Kip Flanik. During her stellar high school career, she won the 2000 U.S. junior national title under the 68-kg division.

After graduating from high school in 2001, Montgomery attended the University of the Cumberlands in Williamsburg, Kentucky, where she competed for the Cumberlands Patriots wrestling club. During her collegiate career, she helped build the team into one of the top women's wrestling programs in the nation. She compiled a perfect 29–0 dual record, and also claimed the 2004 Women's Collegiate National Championship title in the 158-pound division. In 2006, Montgomery graduated from Cumberlands with a bachelor's degree in education.

Freestyle wrestling
In 2001, Montgomery joined the U.S. world wrestling team, and eventually earned her first senior berth at the World Championships in Sofia, Bulgaria, where she took home the silver medal in the 68-kg division. On that same year, she became the first ever American to be named the Women's Wrestler of the Year by USA Wrestling because of her outstanding success to the sport in her major international debut.

While competing internationally, Montgomery achieved four U.S. junior and senior national titles (2001–2004), and obtained two Pan American championship trophies in 2002 and 2003. She also captured the gold medal over Canada's Ohenewa Akuffo in the 72-kg division at the 2003 Pan American Games in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, and then picked up her second silver at the World Championships in New York City, New York, falling short to Japanese wrestler and four-time defending champion Kyoko Hamaguchi by a 4–1 deficit.

Montgomery qualified for the U.S. women's wrestling squad on her major debut in the women's 72 kg class at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens. Earlier in the process, she won a silver medal at the World Championships, and then guaranteed her spot on the U.S. team by overwhelming her rival Kristie Marano from the Olympic Trials. Montgomery suffered another defeat from her longtime rival Hamaguchi in the opening match with a tough 4–8 decision, but wrestled her way to pin Bulgaria's Stanka Zlateva within the halfway mark of the six-minute limit to close the prelim pool. Despite missing a spot on the semifinals, Montgomery seized an opportunity to compete against Canadian wrestler and her former rival Christine Nordhagen in the classification match, but failed to overwhelm her for another time in the mat at 3–8, placing seventh in the final rankings. As she left the Olympic Games empty-handed, Montgomery made an early retirement from competitive wrestling at the age of 21, and instead turned her focus to being part of the coaching staff in Cumberlands.

Coaching
While attending the University of the Cumberlands, Montgomery helped build a women's wrestling program that had been immediately turned into one of the top sporting ventures in the United States. Because of her enormous contribution to the needs of the nation's college sport programs, she was promoted to a full-time position as a graduate assistant coach for the Cumberlands Patriots wrestling squad upon her early retirement from the sport in 2004. After officially receiving her master's degree in instructional leadership from the Cumberlands in 2009, Montgomery accepted a major offer from Lindenwood University in Saint Charles, Missouri to serve as the head coach for the Lindenwood Lions, making her the third American woman to do so on the women's college varsity wrestling squad.

Personal life
Montgomery's parents are Tara and Paul Montgomery. When she was fifteen, her father, Paul pleaded guilty for double murder, and was sentenced to a 30-year to
life imprisonment in southwestern Ohio.
