title: George Stanfield Blake

text:
George Stanfield Blake (1876–1940) was a British mineral and mining geologist, fluent in French, Italian, German and latterly his family understood Palestinian Arabic/Levantine Arabic, which aided his later survey work.

Early career (1900–1922)
On completing his degree at age 21, he worked as an assayer in London and at the Royal Mines of Elba.  During the period of 1900/1901 to 1909 he was on staff at the Scientific and Technical Department of the Imperial Institute engaged in mineralogical studies of Crown colonies. Here, with Dunstan, thorianite from Ceylon was described as a new mineral and he published papers on baddeleyite and zirkelite from Ceylon and carnotite from South Australia. After this, he spent time in Matto Grosso, Brazil exploring for minerals, looking for gold at Timmins around Porcupine Lake, Ontario, and prospecting for petroleum in Newfoundland and Canada.  On returning to England in 1915, he worked at Warrington as a mineral analyst and then at Sheffield as deputy chief analyst, both roles for the Ministry of Munitions.  Between 1920 and 1922 he worked as a tutor at the Imperial College of Science and Technology.

Palestine
From 1922 to 1939, Blake was employed as Geological Advisor to the Mandatory Government of Palestine, where the most basic exploratory challenges existed and his analytical interpretive work from mineralogical and mining knowledge led him to complete the geological corner stones for Palestine and Transjordan. Having grappled with the absence of mapping, he built on former work and published the first Water Resources Survey of Palestine in 1928.  Later he worked with the Potash Company (Novomeyski), on sulphur mining near Gaza, bituminous shales, phosphate, iron (Ajlun) and Roman exploited copper deposits at Fenan (Wadi Feynan) that enabled him to develop his 1930 paper.

This ultimately completed his stratigraphic interpretation of depositional environments and structural changes/events, which can be found in the geological maps and reports from 1937 and 1939.  Blake's 1939 report formed a major part of M.G. Ionides' book, Report on the Water Resources of Transjordan and Their Development. Chapter IV on Geology, Soils and Minerals was taken from Blake's unpublished report in its original form and Chapter V on The River System of the Jordan and Dead Sea Basin is largely Blake's text just rearranged to suit the study and with additional hydrographs.

Blake's last writings were incorporated, like the Ionides report, in Goldschmidt's account on water resources, and were published posthumously after his death.  This report being influential in developing and managing water resources for agriculture and locating settlements.

Later life

Blake retired in 1939 to be with his wife Amy (née Marsden) and children Geoffrey, Paul, Barbara (King), Audrey (Rowland) and Joan (Kennard) in England.  A year later he returned to Palestine in consultancy work exploring for petroleum and had been content with oil signs in the graben on the western border and evidence of domal structures.

He advised his family of a practice exploring without weapons or guards.  Given the differing goals of the British Mandate, Zionist and Palestinian Arab populations this was not the case certainly in later years. Perhaps from 1936 when stability in Palestine deteriorated, which resulted in increasing tension between countrymen and colonies the use of military police to protect surveys commenced. Certainly from August 1938 as an important contributory topographical or ordnance survey of perennial streams in the Jordan Valley was being conducted by the British Mandatory Government.  That August the surveyors camp was attacked and the camp leader Mr V. Serbinovitch together with two assistants were killed by bandits.

On his last field group excursion Blake was provided a personal British Military Police escort Mr Jacob Vicky (Yakob Shviki).  When the camp broke at the end, Blake and Vicky stayed on to explore further. As outlined in obituaries, on 4 July 1940, Blake and his escort Vicky were shot dead by Arab brigands at the mouth of Wadi Zoiir or Nahal Zohar in the Dead Sea Basin.

Commemoration

His former colleague Picard wrote of his contributions to improving geological knowledge of the Palestinian natural assets and closed the paper with Shaw-Welling's words: "His contribution to our knowledge of the geology of Palestine will be his permanent monument."
Blake is buried in the Protestant Church in Jerusalem. The Israel Geological Society honoured his memory by erecting a plaque in 1960 near the spot where his life ended.

Geopolitics

Jemal Pasha, the Ottomans and German military support were driven from Jerusalem and the town surrendered to the British on 9 December 1917. Pasha had been brutally ruthless against Arab and Jewish residents alike.

Germany introduced the Nuremberg Laws in 1936, which resulted in many Jews entering Palestine.  This angered the majority Palestinian Arabs leading to the 1936-39 Arab revolt in Palestine, which the Haganah helped the British quell.  In attempting to manage this the British government developed MacDonald's White Paper of 1939, which had looked to partition the colony into two states whilst severely limiting the number of Jewish refugees entering Palestine at a time of their greatest need.  Zionist right wing members and Palestinian factions both considered British imperialism as long term obstacles to freedom, some harbouring German sympathisers.  Lehi, an offshoot of Irgun, was an underground paramilitary group with an avowed aim of forcibly evicting the British and was established in June 1940 in Mandatory Palestine.

Italy entered WWII on 10 June 1940 and the Vichy Government was effectively formed on 22 June 1940, which resulted in the Syrian/Lebanon colonies coming under their control.  Their Army of the Levant included North African Troops or tirailleurs with contingents from Algeria, Morocco and Tunisia.  On 3 July 1940 the allies struck with an Attack on Mers-el-Kebir and once again the panoply of warfare enveloped Jerusalem and Palestine.

British Mandate finished on 14 May 1948. 1967 Moshe Dayan as Defence Minister commands absolute victory securing Jerusalem and Israel in the Six Days War.

title: William Hamilton Beattie

text:
William Hamilton Beattie (10 December 1842 – 29 November 1898) was a Scottish architect specialising in hotel design in the late 19th century.

He was the eldest son of George Beattie (1810-1872) an architect/builder in Edinburgh and older brother to George Lennox Beattie (1862-1932), who also became an architect and continued the practise after William Hamilton's death.

He was christened simply William Beattie and did not adopt the name Hamilton (a family name) until 1877, by which time his career was taking off and a three part name better suited his aspirations to individuality.

Career
He trained under David Bryce from 1855 but returned to the family to create "George Beattie & Son", based at 17 Grove street, around 1860. He brought a distinctive flair to the company not visible in the earlier works of his father.

One of his earliest works (1864) is a hidden gem just off Princes Street on West Register Street. It is an unbelievably ornate Venetian Gothic printworks/warehouse for the Cowan Brothers, strangely ornate both for its use and location. It was listed category B in 1970.

His skills quickly brought commissions and he particularly began to specialise in hotel design, especially huge railway hotels, which were becoming more common in the late 19th century.

Also noteworthy is his contribution of a cable-drawn tram system in Edinburgh based on the then newly devised system by Andrew Smith Hallidie in San Francisco. This work required a Bill to be passed. This failed for an original comprehensive system but an amended Bill approved a route from Henderson Row to Goldenacre with a second route from Frederick Street to Comely Bank was approved on 7 August 1884. Edinburgh's first tram route was duly opened on 28 January 1889. This system was extremely neat (with no overhead wires) but did require considerable maintenance. Part of the original winding gear and part of the original depot is preserved as part of the Scottish Life Assurance Offices on Henderson Row.

In 1893 he received a particularly fine commission from Charles Jenner to rebuild his store on Princes Street to create "Jenner’s", which was at the time one of Britain's largest and most ornate purpose-built department stores.

His final tour-de-force is probably the North British Hotel (now the Balmoral Hotel) begun in 1895 but not completed until 1902 due to its immense scale. This is now an iconic part of the Edinburgh skyline. Beattie died before its completion, Andrew Robb Scott oversaw that task.

Beattie died of a cerebral haemorrhage at his home, 13 Douglas Crescent in Edinburgh on 29 November 1898. His will left over £42,000, the largest sum ever left by a Scottish architect at that time, and (adjusted for inflation) probably still the richest architect Scotland has ever produced.

He is buried in Dean Cemetery.

Family
Beattie married Iona Mary McCaskie (born 1847) but outlived her by almost ten years, as she died on 30 December 1889. He is presumed to have designed her monument where he now lies with her.

They had one son, Ivor Hamilton Beattie (b. 1886; d. Suva, Fiji 1957) who forwent the family tradition of architecture and taught physics at Christ Church, Oxford. Ivor moved to Fiji in 1924 where he practiced medicine and designed the Lilac Theatre in Suva.  Hamilton-Beattie Street in Suva was named in memory of him.

title: Stanley Rubinstein

text:
Stanley Jack Rubinstein (17 January 1890 – 14 February 1975) was a British solicitor who specialised in copyright law, a novelist and historian.

Biography
Rubinstein was born in Kensington, the eldest son of Joseph Samuel Rubinstein (1852-1915) and Isabella Alexandra Marks (1864-1960).  He had two brothers, Harold (1891- 1975) and Ronald (1896-1947), and a sister Edna (born 1893).

Rubinstein followed his father as senior partner of the law firm Rubinstein, Nash & Co, where he also worked with his brothers Harold and Ronald at offices in Gray's Inn.  His father had established the practice in 1889 with Daniel Leggatt, as Leggatt, Rubinstein & Co.  The firm developed an expertise in publishing matters.

Prior to World War I, he ran a concert party, "The Mixed Pickles", who entertained youth clubs in London. He wrote and performed songs, some of which were published.

Stanley Rubinstein married Vera Solomon on 24June 1915 at the New West End Synagogue in StPetersburgh Place, Bayswater, West London. His daughter Joan and son Anthony also worked for the family law firm, as did his grandson John Rubinstein. The firm merged with Manches in 1994, and Penningtons bought Manches in a pre-pack administration in 2013.

In 1924, he was a founder member and organising secretary of the Telephone Users' Protection Association. Writing to The Times in 1927, he gave his address as Wrenhope, Frogmill Farm, Hurley, Berkshire. In 1967, he sat on an appeal committee to raise funds to purchase one of Thomas Hudson's portraits of Handel (1756), for the National Portrait Gallery. The appeal was successful. He was the chairman of Burke Publishing until 1975, and solicitor for the Henry Wood National Memorial Trust.

He appeared as a castaway on the BBC Radio programme Desert Island Discs on 11 August 1969 where he discussed his proposals for introducing copyright protection for elaborated ideas.

Other family members
Stanley's brother Harold Rubinstein was the brother in law of Victor Gollancz, and acted on the defence of Radclyffe Hall's novel, The Well of Loneliness on obscenity charges in 1928.  Harold's elder son, Michael Rubinstein acted for Penguin Books in the prosecution of D.H. Lawrence's novel Lady Chatterley's Lover for obscenity in 1960.

title: Cunningtoniceras

text:
Cunningtoniceras is a stocky acanthoceratid ammonite from the upper Cenomanian stage of the late Cretaceous of the western U.S., found e.g. in Arizona and New Mexico.

Cunningtoniceras was proposed by Maurice Collignon, 1927, for ribbed, evolute ammonites having a quadrangular whorl section; umbilical, inner and outer ventrolateral, and siphonal (i.e. mid-ventral) tubercles; a venter with a multiplication of ribs and tubercles, or one or the other. Ornament weakens with age except for the inner ventrolateral tubercles, which enlargen.

Cobban, Hook & Kennedy, 1989, distinguish Cunningtoniceras Collignon from Euomphaloceras Spath 1923, the two having been previously regarded as synonymous. In fact Cunningtoniceras is described in the Treatise L, 1957 as a synonym of Euomphaloceras, noted as having three rows of small tubercles on a broad flat venter.

Although Cunningtonicaras and Euomphaloceras share many characters, both belonging to the Acanthoceratidae, they are distinguished by the nature of the first lateral lobe of their respective sutures. The first lateral lobe of species ultimately assigned to Cunningtonicaras are narrow and bifid, contrasting with the broad and deeply bifid lobes of Euomphalooceras.

title: Tiefencastel derailment

text:
The Tiefencastel derailment occurred near the municipality of Tiefencastel, Switzerland, on 13 August 2014 when a passenger train travelling on the Albula Railway was struck by a landslide and derailed. Ten people were injured, four seriously, and 1 person died.

Accident

At 12:30 CEST (10:30 UTC) on 13 August 2014, a Rhaetian Railway passenger train on the Albula Railway was struck by a landslide and derailed. The train was travelling from St. Moritz to . Of the seven-coach train, one carriage was left almost at right angles to the track down an embankment, and two others were derailed. Trees prevented the carriage from ending up in the Albula. Eleven people were injured, five seriously, and one of the seriously injured, an 85 year old man, later died. There were 140 passengers on the train. Two of the injured were Japanese and one was an Australian. The other eight victims were Swiss. In one of the derailed carriages, passengers moved to one side of the carriage in a bid to prevent it from plunging into a ravine. The train was hauled by Ge 4/4 III-class locomotive No. 651.

Four helicopters and eight ambulances assisted in the rescue operations. All the passengers had been evacuated within three hours of the accident. They were taken to  by bus to continue their journey by train. In a twelve-hour period before the accident, rainfall was recorded at a 50-60 litres per square metre, about half the average rainfall for the month of August in the area, according to a statement by MeteoSwiss. The railway reopened on 16 August. On that date, six people remained in hospital with injuries described as "non life threatening".

Investigation
The Swiss Accident Investigation Board has opened an investigation into the accident. A separate investigation was opened by the Canton of Graubünden.

Similar accidents
Other instances of trains actually being struck by falling rocks and being derailed include -

1 January 1883 - At Vriog (now Friog), Merionethshire, United Kingdom, the locomotive of a Cambrian Railways passenger train was struck by falling rocks and pushed into the Irish Sea. Both engine crew were killed. The first carriage was derailed, but there were no injuries amongst the passengers.
4 March 1933 - Also at Vriog, the locomotive of a Great Western Railway passenger train ran into falling rocks and was pushed into the Irish Sea. Both engine crew were killed.
8 February 2014 - At Annot, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, France, a passenger train of the Chemins de Fer de Provence was struck by a landslide and derailed. Two people were killed and twenty were injured.

title: Vanitha Vijayakumar

text:
Vanitha Vijayakumar (born 5 October 1979) is an Indian actress who has appeared predominantly in Tamil film and Television Industry.

Early life
Vanitha is the eldest daughter of Tamil actor Vijayakumar and his second wife, Tamil actress Manjula. Vanitha has two younger sisters, Preetha and Sridevi, who were former actresses. From his first marriage to Muthukannu Vellalar, Vijayakumar had three children. Actor Arun Vijay and former actress Kavitha are among her half-siblings.

In September 2018, she had another public fallout with her family after she refused to leave a family property that she had initially rented for a shoot in Ashtalakshmi Nagar. Her father, Vijayakumar, subsequently filed a police complaint against her.

Career

Debut in Tamil and Malayalam cinema (1995–1999)
Vanitha made her acting debut opposite Vijay in Chandralekha (1995). Directed by Nambirajan, the film was shot in a small village and owing to the lack of caravans, Vanitha had to make use of basic conditions. The film opened to mixed reviews and eventually did not perform well at the box office, effectively curtailing Vanitha's career. Vanitha subsequently appeared alongside Rajkiran in Manikkam (1996), before moving on to act in the Malayalam film Hitler Brothers (1997) and Telugu devotional fantasy film Devi (1999). As film offers began to reduce, Vanitha worked as a costume designer for her sister Preetha's films, and then also worked as an assistant director to P. Vasu during the making of Kakkai Siraginilae (2000). After her first marriage to Akash, Vanitha quit the film industry.

Reentry into cinema (2013–2015)
Vanitha made a brief comeback to acting in the mid-2010s, and first appeared in a small role in Naan Rajavaga Pogiren (2013). She followed this up with a longer role in the comedy drama, Summa Nachunu Irukku (2013). Vanitha then chose to turn producer and make a film titled MGR Sivaji Rajini Kamal (2015), to be directed by her then-boyfriend Robert. She produced the film under the Vanitha Film Production banner, suggesting that the script of the film originated from a joke they discussed at a social gathering. Following the commercial failure of the film, Vanitha lodged a police complaint against distribution studio Vibrant Medias, alleging that they did not release the film in 80 cinemas as agreed in their contract. She was also rejected by most directors and didn't receive any film offers from directors, and she decided to quit acting for some time due to criticisms.

Recognition in Tamil television (2019–present)

In 2019, Vanitha appeared in the Tamil reality television show Bigg Boss Tamil 3 on Star Vijay. She was the second contestant to be eliminated from the show. After a few weeks of request from fans
for Vanitha to enter the house as a wild card, they sent her again as a contestant.

In 2020, Vanitha appeared on season 1 of the Tamil Cooking show Cooku with Comali on Star Vijay and became the winner.

She also later participated in the spin-off version show called Bigg Boss Ultimate (season 1) as a contestant.

She also appeared as a cameo appearance in the Zee Tamil soap opera Pudhu Pudhu Arthangal playing a small role in the serial.

Personal life
Vanitha Vijayakumar married actor Akash on 10 September 2000. Their son was born in 2001 and their daughter was born in 2005. Following a lengthy custody dispute, the Madras High Court ordered that the children split their time between both parents. Her son later moved in permanently with his grandfather and then Akash.

Vanitha Vijayakumar got then married again with businessman Anand Jay Rajan, in 2007. The pair has a daughter. The couple separated soon after and were officially divorced in 2012, with Rajan being awarded custody of their child. Vanitha suggested that the pair divorced as a result of her disputes with Vijayakumar, and that Rajan had effectively become indirectly involved in the controversy costing her peace and career opportunities. In 2019, police questioned Vanitha while on the set of Bigg Boss Tamil 3 in Chennai over a complaint filed by Rajan alleging that she had kidnapped their daughter. Vanitha was not arrested after her daughter confirmed that she had voluntarily come to Chennai with her mother.

Following her separation with Anand Rajan in 2010, Vanitha dated choreographer Robert beginning in 2013. The duo also worked together professionally by producing a film titled MGR Sivaji Rajini Kamal (2015), before ending their relationship in 2017.

Vanitha was a born Hindu to Tamil parents. On 30 March 2022 she converted to Buddhism embracing the religion and underwent many various different religious rituals in which later she officially converted to the religion.

Vanitha was also suffering from Depression for more than 10 years, however she later underwent medical treatment and professional counselling and fully recovered.

She was in relationship with Peter Paul, who is already married and a father of two children. The couple got married on 27 June 2020 in Chennai. Vanitha's marital relationship with Peter was controversial among people. Peter's first wife, Elizabeth, had filed a case on Vanitha and her husband for not getting an official divorce before. As of October 2020, Vanitha had divorced Peter with mutual consent, owing to his ongoing addiction to cigarettes and alcohol.

Off-screen work
In 2021, Vanitha officially opened up her own clothing store outlet named as Vanitha Vijayakumar Styling which is located in Chennai. She is also a part time costume designer.

title: Carola Garcia de Vinuesa

text:
Carola Garcia de Vinuesa  (born 1969) is a Spanish doctor, scientist, and professor. She is Royal Society Wolfson Fellow and Senior Group Leader at the Francis Crick Institute in London, and at the John Curtin School of Medical Research in Canberra. She is a winner of the Australian Science Minister's Prize for Life Scientist of the Year and the Gottschalk Medal.

Education and career
Vinuesa obtained a Bachelor of Medicine at the Autonomous University of Madrid.

While she was a student, she worked in a leprosy clinic in Kolkata on the shores of the Ganges, and helped train health workers in Ghana in rural areas. She said that Ghanan children were overwhelmingly admitted for unpreventable meningitis, leading her to believe that her time would be better spent learning the cause of the deadly disease, to develop preventative measures. She moved to the United Kingdom (UK) to do clinical training and doctoral research investigating the biological mechanisms of meningitis.

She was awarded a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Immunology by the University of Birmingham in 2000.

She received a Wellcome Trust International Travelling Fellowship in 2001 to undertake postdoctoral research at The John Curtin School for Medical Research at the Australian National University.

In 2005, she discovered a genetic variant in mice that led to an auto-immune disease.

In 2014, Vinuesa was awarded a grant, and that April, opened The Centre for Personalised Immunology at ANU. She was one of the first people in Australia to use genomic sequencing to link diseases to genetic variation.

In 2015, she was elected as a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Science.

In October 2020, she became a Fellow of the Australian Academy of Health and Medical Sciences.

In September 2021, the Lupus Research Alliance granted one of two of its $3 Million Global Team Science Awards to Vinuesa's team, led by Dr. Virginia Pascual, to examine why lupus differs from patient to patient.

In 2022, Vinuesa relocated to the UK to take a new position at Francis Crick Institute.

CALM2 Variant and the Kathleen Folbigg Case (2018-present)
In August 2018, Vinuesa received a phone call from a former student who was concerned that Kathleen Folbigg may have been wrongfully convicted of infanticide. The student told her that the medical evidence presented at trial didn't "sit right" with several medical and legal experts, and thought Vinuesa's expertise in immunogenetics may help uncover an underlying disease that caused the Folbiggs' deaths. Vinuesa noted obvious signs of common causes for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), including floppy larynx and inflammation of the heart, that should have given reasonable doubt in the face of a lack of evidence of violence. Vinuesa agreed to consult on the case in an email to Folbigg's attorneys writing, "As a mother, I cannot think of a more worthy cause," and that she found it hard to believe someone could be imprisoned over it.

In November 2018, Vinuesa and a colleague, geneticist Dr. Todor Arsov, sequenced Folbigg's DNA and analyzed it for genetic mutations that could be linked to diseases that could cause SIDS or Sudden Unexpected Death in Childhood (SUDC). They discovered a mutation on a gene named CALM2 (G114R), in a genetic family named Calmodulin (CALM) which had previously been associated with fatal cardiac arrhythmias such as long QT syndrome,and SUDC. A genetic simulation on CALM2 showed it was likely just as dangerous as the other variants.

Hearings and testimony
The evidence presented in the reassessment of the New South Wales case was discounted as "speculation" by a team of scientists from Sydney commissioned by the Attorney General of Australia (AG). Dr. Michael Buckley, the Director of the Randwick Genomics Laboratory at the Prince of Wales Hospital, argued that they should use the criteria set by the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics for determining likelihood of pathogenicity, which requires 90% certainty to determine if disease is a likely cause. Vinuesa rejected this as she believed it was their role to determine whether or not there was reasonable doubt that Folbigg was guilty, not whether or not Folbigg, or her late infants, should have a definitive diagnosis. One of the researchers from the AG team, Dr. Matthew Cook, agreed with Vinuesa, splitting the experts into two groups to write two reports.

During the reinvestigation, Vinuesa felt a lot of effort was placed to try and disqualify the experts on the side of the defence, rather than seeking the truth. Dr. Jonathan Skinner, who had gone over her medical files, testified that Folbigg had shown no signs of cardiac disease, and that it was not credible that Folbigg's children could have died from it. Arsov countered that Folbigg had recounted an incident of near-drowning when she was a teenager and had fainted while swimming in a pool, but a scientist on Buckley's team said her fainting may have been due to dehydration." The Sydney team also argued that they were not aware of CALM mutations causing death while asleep in young children.

Conclusion and verdict
In 2019, following the conclusion of the hearings, Furness determined that nothing presented by Vinuesa's team had "clearly explained" the deaths of the infants. Vinuesa was disturbed by the prosecution's unwillingness to have doubt cast on the previous verdict and the lack of calmodulin experts at the hearings, and set out to find the opinions of the best recognised international experts. One of them, Prof. Peter Schwartz of , had just co-published a paper, Calmodulin mutations and life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias: insights from the International Calmodulinopathy Registry, which contained information about a family with a nearly identical CALM variant (G114W) in which two children suffered a sudden cardiac arrest while the mother, who had been the carrier of the gene's mutation, was seemingly healthy. He concluded he had "significant doubts" about Folbigg's conviction, and that the accusation of infanticide may have been premature.

Despite the CALM2 variant now qualifying as "likely pathogenic," Buckley's team and the prosecution seemed unwilling to accept the new evidence. Vinuesa dug into Schwartz's Registry and found that up to 20% of sudden cardiac deaths occur in sleep, and that there were nine reported cases of these types of deaths in infants and toddlers and wrote up a brief for the inquiry.

In July 2019, the presiding judicial officer, Reginald Blanch, delivered his verdict that Folbigg would remain in prison, citing that he "preferred" the expertise and evidence of Buckley and Skinner, and excerpts from a diary which showed evidence of postpartum depression, which Vinuesa felt showed a woman "grappling with the occasional despair of motherhood." Vinuesa reflected on society's pressure on mothers and her own experience."

Appeal
Vinuesa believed that the verdict was "deeply unjust," and continued her research into CALM2. She persuaded Danish biochemist, Michael Toft Overgard, to run tests on the mutation in a synthetic cell, resulting in unambiguous results that the CALM2 variant in Folbigg's DNA was not only arrythmogenic (i.e. “pathogenic” and therefore potentially lethal), but mirrored the results of other CALM variants known to cause death in young children while asleep. In 2020, Vinuesa, Arsov, Schwartz, and 24 other scientists co-authored a paper called, Infanticide vs. inherited cardiac arrhythmias, which was published that November by EP Europace. Folbigg's legal team used the paper as evidence in an appeal to the Supreme Court of New South Wales, but the judges upheld Blanch's decision.

Advocacy
In March 2021, Vinuesa, alongside more than 100 other scientists including two Nobel prize winners, signed a petition to grant Folbigg royal prerogative of mercy based on Vinuesa's research. The petition states that to keep Folbigg imprisoned sets a dangerous precedent that "cogent medical and scientific evidence can simply be ignored in preference to subjective interpretations and circumstantial evidence." Vinuesa since visited Folbigg in prison.

Also in March 2021, Vinuesa wrote an essay for The Conversation casting doubt on the verdict and sharing evidence her and her team had presented during the appeal. She also criticized the judicial process itself, saying that her experience discouraged her from engaging in cases in the future. She warned that if her experience is common of scientific experts, the law is risking engagement from the scientific community in legal matters. She said that scientists should be chosen who base their reasoning on "peer-reviewed scientific evidence," with specific expertise on the fields in question, and needed to be "treated as equals" to and by their legal peers during the process. She said that she hopes in the coming years that legal settings will welcome and appreciate the scientific method.

On June 5, 2023, as a result of the interventions of the scientific community, Kathleen Folbigg was granted an unconditional pardon and set free, pending the quashing of the 2003 verdict.

Awards and recognition
She was the 2008 winner of the Australian Science Minister's Prize for Life Scientist of the Year and the 2009 winner of the Australian Academy of Science's Gottschalk Medal for her research uncovering the origins of autoimmune diseases. In 2022 Vinuesa was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society.

Personal life
Vinuesa was born and raised in Cadiz, Spain. She has two daughters. Vinuesa says her career decisions echoed her father's, who was a community-servant lawyer. He worked in the second democratic government in Spain as a treasury inspector.

As of August 2021, Vinuesa resided in the UK.

title: Isaac Fadoyebo

text:
Isaac Fadoyebo (5 December 1925 – 9 November 2012) was a Nigerian soldier who served in the British Royal West African Frontier Force during Britain's World War II campaign in Asia.

Early life
Fadoyebo was born on 5 December 1925 in Emure-Ile village, Ondo state in south west Nigeria.

In 1942, Fadoyebo voluntarily joined the British Army at the age of 16, an act which he characterised in his writings as "youthful exuberance". In January 1942 he was selected for the Royal West African Frontier Force (RWAFF) and trained as a hospital attendant. In 1943, Fadoyebo was sent to Burma. In 1943, he visited India while travelling to Burma and was deployed to police an Indian Independence rally addressed by Mahatma Gandhi.

Career
In 1943, Fadoyebo was deployed by the British Army to Burma. In the early morning of February 1944, while moving by the Kaladan River valley in Japanese-occupied Burma, his unit was ambushed by Japanese forces and Fadoyebo suffered several wounds as a result of the attack. He and another soldier of the unit, David Kagbo from Sierra Leone, were the only survivors of the attack. They hid themselves in the nearby forests. They were later rescued out by Burmese villagers and sheltered in their village for 10 months. Fadoyebo in his biography described Kagbo as, "my comrade in adversity".

In December 1944, the British Gurkha brigade liberated the area and found Fadoyebo and Kagbo, both of whom were admitted in the hospital to complete their recovery before returning to their native countries.

After returning to Nigeria, Fadoyebo  was encouraged by Michael Crowder (a Nigeria focused historian) to document his war experience in Burma. In the 1980s (about 35–40 years after the war) Fadoyebo typed his war account on a typewriter and was unable to find a publisher for his manuscript. Fadoyebo received his publishing break when in 1989, on the 50th anniversary of the Second World War, the BBC's Africa Service planned a series of programmes seeking first-hand accounts of Africans who participated in the war. Fadoyebo submitted the only copy of his typed manuscript which was received with excitement by the BBC and was the basis for a dramatised BBC documentary titled I remember Burma. Fadoyebo's manuscript was edited by Professor David Killingray and published in 1999 titled: "A stroke of unbelievable luck". Killingray wrote the introduction to the book; a copy of Fadoyebo's book is kept at the Imperial War Museum.

Death
Fadoyebo died on 9 November 2012.

Recognition
In 2011, Barnaby Phillips, a journalist with Al Jazeera, made a documentary about the unsung soldiers who fought for the British Army titled "The Burma Boys" for the Al Jazeera's Correspondent series. The documentary picturing Fadoyebo's extraordinary life won the CINE Golden Eagle Award in 2012.

In 2014, Barnaby Phillips wrote a book titled Another Man's War - The Story of a Burma Boy in Britain's Forgotten African Army which was published by Oneworld Publications.

title: Charles Aston Key

text:
Charles Aston Key (1793–1849) was an English surgeon.

Life
Born in Southwark on 6 October 1793, he was eldest son of Thomas Key, a medical practitioner, and Margaret Barry; Thomas Hewitt Key was a half-brother by a second marriage. He was educated at Buntingford grammar school, in Hertfordshire, and was apprenticed to his father in 1810.

Key attended the lectures at the United Borough Hospitals in 1812, and became a pupil at Guy's Hospital in 1814. In 1815 his apprenticeship to his father was cancelled, and he became pupil of Astley Cooper, at a large cost, and in 1817–8 he lived with Cooper. Key became demonstrator of anatomy at St. Thomas's Hospital, but resigned the post in February 1823, though he gave some of Cooper's surgical lectures for two sessions afterwards. he had qualified at the Royal College of Surgeons in 1821, and in the autumn of the same year was appointed the first assistant surgeon to Guy's, succeeding to a full surgeoncy in January 1824. In this year he introduced the operation for lithotomy with the straight staff, using only a single knife; the success of his operations established his reputation as a surgeon. He gained a large practice.

In 1825, on the separation of Guy's from St. Thomas's medical schools, Key was appointed lecturer on surgery at Guy's; he resigned the lectureship in 1844. In 1845 he was one of the first elected fellows of the Royal College of Surgeons, and in the same year became a member of its council.

In 1847 Key was appointed surgeon to Albert, Prince Consort. He died of cholera on 23 August 1849.

Works
Key wrote:

 A Short Treatise on the Section of the Prostate Gland in Lithotomy, 4 plates, London, 1824.
 A Memoir on the Advantages and Practicability of Dividing the Stricture in Strangulated Hernia on the outside of the Sac, London, 1833;

He contributed to the Guy's Hospital Reports papers on hernia, lithotomy, and other subjects; and he edited the second edition of Sir Astley Cooper's work on hernia, 1827.

Family
In 1818 Key married Cooper's niece, Anne Cooper. At his death he left nine children, including Astley Cooper Key.

title: Jack Finch (footballer, born 1996)

text:
Jack Jonathon Finch (born 6 August 1996) is an English professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Daventry Town.

Career

Coventry City
Born in Fenny Compton, England, Finch began his career at Sunday league side Fenny Compton Colts and one day, when he was playing as a right-back in a match against Southam United, he was scouted by Coventry City, leading him to join the club when he was nine-year old. While at the academy, Finch started out playing as a right-back before switching to centre-back then into midfield.

After progressing the ranks of the academy, he was called up by the first team in July 2013, but did not travel in the club's pre-season tour. Although he was a regular for the Under-21s side the most of the 2013–14 season, Finch was offered a two-year professional contract. Shortly after being offered a new contract, Finch was called by the first team against Bradford City, where he appeared as an unused substitute. He went on to make two appearances as an unused substitute against Wolverhampton Wanderers and Sheffield United. At the end of the 2013–14 season, he signed a two-year professional contract with them.

Finch made his professional debut starting on 13 August 2014 in a 2-1 League Cup loss to Cardiff City. However, in a match against Crewe Alexandra on 11 October 2014, Finch was sent-off for a second bookable offence, in a 2–1 loss. Despite the sending-off, Finch was given a handful of first team appearances between November and February. However, in late-March, he returned to the U21 side for the rest of the season after finding his first team opportunities limited. Despite a setback, Finch went on to make 16 League appearances in the 2014–15 season.

However, the 2015–16 season saw Finch not featured for the first team and did not make a single appearance that season, due to competitions around the midfield position. As the 2015–16 season progressed, Finch began to suffer his own setback when he suffered an injury that left him long-term. It wasn't until February 2016 when he returned from injury.

In the 2016–17 season, Finch was included in the first team squad for the pre-season tour. Finch then made his first appearance in over a year, in the first round of League Cup, in a 3–2 win over Portsmouth on 9 August 2016. Finch appeared three times in the EFL Trophy. At the end of the 2016–17 season, Finch was released by the club when his contract came to an end.

title: Pierre Masson

text:
Claude L. Pierre Masson (November 12, 1880 – May 11, 1959) was a Canadian medical doctor. He was considered one of the leading histopathologists of his era.

He was born in Dijon and studied medicine at the University of Paris and the Pasteur Institute. Originally, Masson planned a career in clinical medicine, but, after suffering poor health, decided to change his area of interest to biology. Masson was offered the chair of pathology at the University of Strasbourg. He is credited with first describing neurocrine secretion and his work led to the development of modern neuroendocrinology. He was also known for his research into brain tumours. Masson developed at three-stain protocol used in histology known as "Masson's trichrome stain". In 1927, he left Strasbourg to become chair of the Pathology department at the Université de Montréal. Masson reworked the pathology curriculum at the university and reorganized the pathology laboratories there. He retired from that position in 1954.

He died at the age of 79 and was buried in the Notre Dame des Neiges Cemetery.

Masson was named to the Canadian Medical Hall of Fame in 1997.

Jaimovich-Rebelo preferences refer to a utility function that allows to parameterize the strength of short-run wealth effects on the labor supply, originally developed by Nir Jaimovich and Sergio Rebelo in their 2009 article Can News about the Future Drive the Business Cycle?

Let  denote consumption and let  denote hours worked at period . The instantaneous utility has the form

It is assumed that , , and .

The agents in the model economy maximize their lifetime utility, , defined over sequences of consumption and hours worked,

Relationship to other common macroeconomic preference types
Jaimovich-Rebelo preferences nest the KPR preferences and the GHH preferences.

title: Dizdar

text:
Dizdar (; ) was the title given in the Ottoman Empire to a castle warden or fortress commander, appointed to manage troops and keep the fortress in its role as a defence point.

The word is of Persian origin, meaning gatekeeper, watchman, guardsman or castellan. It spread to the west following the Ottoman conquest of the Balkans.

Dizdar commanded military unit in the fortress, but at the same time he was responsible for the settlement (village or town) under or around it as well, because the purpose of fortress was to defend the area.

As a commanding person, dizdar had his deputy, called chekhaya (), and other subordinates (e.g. yasakci). His superiors were captain, sanjakbeg and other senior military officers.

In 1839 after the Tanzimat reforms, the Ottoman Empire abolished captaincies; the titles like captain and dizdar ceased to exist.

title: Caiuajara

text:
Caiuajara is an extinct genus of tapejarid pterosaur from the Early Cretaceous period (Aptian to Albian stages) of Brazil. It is known from a single type species, Caiuajara dobruskii.

Discovery and naming

In 1971, the labourers Alexandre Dobruski and his son João Gustavo Dobruski found pterosaur fossils in a field near Cruzeiro do Oeste in the south of Brazil, in the state of Paraná. The finds were in 2011 brought to the attention of paleontologists Paulo C. Manzig and Luiz C. Weinschütz.

In 2014, the type species Caiuajara dobruskii was named and described by Paulo Manzig, Alexander Kellner, Luiz Weinschütz, Carlos Fragoso, Cristina Vega, Gilson Guimarães, Luiz Godoy, Antonio Liccardo, João Ricetti and Camila de Moura. The generic name refers to the geological Caiuá Group and the related genus Tapejara. The specific name honors the discoverers.

The holotype, CP.V 1449, was found in a sandstone layer of the Goio-Erê Formation, of Early Cretaceous age, in the Paraná Basin. It consists of a partial skeleton including the skull, lower jaws, neck vertebrae and wing elements. Many hundreds of bones have been discovered, concentrated in several bone beds, and representing at least forty-seven individuals but probably many more. In the total assembly, all elements of the skeleton are present. The bones have been three-dimensionally preserved, not compressed, but are only rarely articulated. The individuals found are often juveniles; adult animals are much rarer, only represented by two skulls and three humeri. Good specimens have been assigned as paratypes, the more fragmentary ones have been referred.

The paratypes are: CP.V 865: a snout, rear of the mandibula, right jugal, vertebrae, ribs and metatarsals; CP.V 867: a snout and limb bones; CP.V 868: a snout, wing elements and other postcrania; CP.V 869: a vertebral column, right arm, coracoid, breastbone, wing phalanges, belly ribs, pelvic elements and a right thighbone; CP.V 870: a shoulder girdle with the humeri; CP.V 871: a right shoulder girdle with right arm elements; CP.V 872: s partial skeleton including the skull, lower jaws, right arm, neck vertebrae and additional limb elements; CP.V 873: a snout and finger phalanges; CP.V 999: a partial skull; CP.V 1001: a slab with a partial skull, lower jaws and postcrania of at least three individuals; CP.V 1003: a partial skull and symphysis; CP.V 1004: a snout; CP.V 1005: a partial crested skull with the complete mandibula; CP.V 1006: a partial crested skull lacking the snout combined with postcrania; CP.V 1023: a snout and postcrania; CP.V 1024: a skull and postcrania of at least three juveniles; CP.V 1025: a thighbone; CP.V 1026: a thighbone; CP.V 1450: a slab containing at least fourteen juveniles; CP.V 2003: a skull with lower jaws and articulated wing elements; UEPG/DEGEO/MP-4151: a slab with two skulls and postcrania; and UEPG/DEGEO/MP-4152: a snout with postcrania.

Most specimens are part of the collection of the Centro Paleontológico of the Universidade do Contestado.

Description

The largest individuals of Caiuajara had an estimated wingspan of . The species had a large toothless head with, in adult individuals, an enormous shark fin-shaped crest on the snout.

The describing authors established several distinguishing unique traits, autapomorphies. The tip of the snout is strongly oriented to below, at 142 to 149°, relative to the edge of the upper jaw. The rear ascending branches of the premaxillae on their midline form an elongated bony rim projecting to below into the nasoantorbital fenestra, the large skull opening in the side of the snout. In the concave upper rear of the symphysis, the fronts of the lower jaws grown together, a rounded depression is present. The front outer edge of the quadrate shows a longitudinal groove. Below the front part of the nasoantorbital fenestra, a depression is present in the upper jaw edge.

Additionally, Caiuajara shows a unique combination of traits that are themselves not unique. The lower edge of the eye socket is rounded. At a maximal occlusion, the gap between the upper and lower jaw is wider than with other tapejarines. The pteroid on its bottom surface shows a conspicuous depression lacking a pneumatic opening.

Phylogeny
Caiuajara was assigned to the Tapejaridae, more precisely the Tapejarinae. It shares several traits with the tapejarids, such as a crest running from the front snout to the back of the head; an elongated nasoantorbital fenestra occupying over 40% of total skull length; and a large boss on the front edge of the coracoid. A typical tapejarine trait is the down-turned snout tip. A cladistic analysis showed that Caiuajara is a possible sister species of Tupandactylus. In 2014, Caiuajara was the geologically youngest known tapejarid (aside from the possible tapejarid Bakonydraco galaczi) and also the most southern one known. This expansion of their known range was seen as an indication that tapejarids had a global distribution. Moreover, Caiuajara is the first pterosaur found in the south of Brazil. A phylogenetic analysis conducted in 2019 by Kellner (one of the describers of Caiuajara) and colleagues recovered Caiuajara within the tribe Tapejarini, sister taxon to sister taxon to three other genera: Europejara, Tapejara, and Tupandactylus.

Paleobiology

The habitat of Caiuajara was a desert with dunes. The layers in which the fossils were found had been deposited in a lake in the desert; probably the bones had been exposed at the surface around the lake for a time and were then by storms blown into it, eventually sinking to the bottom. Possibly the same storms caused many individuals to die together; this could also have been the result of droughts. A succession of layers shows that the lake was likely inhabited by the pterosaurs for a great length of time, although it is also possible they visited the lake during regular migrations. Fossil plants — tapejarids are often assumed to have been herbivores — have not been found, so there are no direct indications about the food source. Likewise, remains of invertebrates have not been discovered.

The large concentrations of fossils, among pterosaurs very rare and only equaled by those found of the Argentine form Pterodaustro, were by the describers seen as proof of a gregarious lifestyle, Caiuajara living in colonies. The many specimens also allowed to determine a growth series, the first such an ontogenetic sequence for pterosaurs of which it is nearly certain that it really represented a single species. The age of the exemplars can be determined, not just from size but also by the degree of ossification, especially of the breastbone, the long bones and the wrist, and the fusion of the shoulder blade and coracoid into a scapulocoracoid. It showed that juvenile individuals, the smallest specimens of which have a wingspan of about , generally had the same proportions as adults. Especially important is that their humeri are not proportionally smaller and their humeral deltopectoral crests, the attachments of the main flight muscles, are not less developed, attaining a size of 38 to 40% of the humeral shaft length. This suggests that they were precocial, taking wing almost as soon as they hatched; parental care must have been limited. This might have been typical of all derived pterosaurs. The snout crest however, strongly changed during growth. It became much taller and also much more steeply inclined, from about 115° to 90°. Although the snout as a whole also became more massive, the snout tip inclination relative to the jaw edge remained the same. At the back of the skull an additional projection developed. Furthermore, the dentary crest on the lower jaw strongly increased in size. No specimens have been found lacking the snout crest, indicating that Caiuajara was in this respect not sexually dimorphic and casting doubt on the hypothesis that pterosaurs normally were.

title: Kevin Riepl

text:
Kevin Riepl is an American composer for video games, films and television shows. He is best known for his work on the Unreal series of games, Gears of War and Aliens: Colonial Marines.

Biography
Riepl was born in Cliffwood Beach, New Jersey. His interest in music started at the age of six, when he began to play piano and guitar under the instruction of his uncle. In the fourth grade he began studies on the trumpet and piano and that continued throughout his high school years in which he was a member of a variety of bands and orchestras. After high school, he began private independent studies in composition and orchestration at the Village East Conservatory of Music. Following the years at the conservatory and few scoring projects, he attended Mannes College of Music in New York City for further education in composition and orchestration.

Riepl began his career working as an assistant and co-writing partner for Kevin Manthei in the early 2000s. At the time, Cliff Bleszinski, former design director at Epic Games, who was then looking for a different musical sound for the Unreal franchise, played his demo reel. This led him to work on Unreal Tournament 2003, Unreal Tournament 2004 and Unreal Championship 2. In February 2005, Riepl became attached to Gears of War. Initially, he was asked to write the main themes for the game, but after submitting the pieces he had written, Epic liked what he created and signed him on to create the entire score. In March 2007, Riepl recorded the score for the massively multiplayer first-person shooter computer game Huxley, developed by Webzen Games.

In October 2010, Riepl suffered a sudden heart failure and was hospitalized. He had a pump installed in his heart until a donor heart could replace it, and underwent the heart transplant in July 2011. Shortly afterwards, a rare tumor was found on his adrenal gland, which was affecting his blood pressure. He has since made a good recovery.

In addition to his work on the video game industry, Riepl has composed for films and television series, including his recent scores for horror films such as Silent Night, Contracted and the Cabin Fever films (Patient Zero and the 2016 film remake).

He was later informed by Minsky that his character was to be killed off towards the end of the first season. But a month later, he was told that decision had been reversed as both Minsky and network executives found that Saxon as Max was so likeable.
