title: William Bross

text:
William J. Bross (November 4, 1813 – January 27, 1890) was an American politician and publisher originally from the New Jersey–New York–Pennsylvania tri-state area.  He was also elected as the 16th Lieutenant Governor of Illinois.

He engaged in the lumber trade with his father before attending Williams College. He taught at schools for ten years, then headed west to Chicago, Illinois. He engaged in book-selling and publishing interests before co-founding the successful Democratic Press paper. Following the organization of the Republican Party in 1854, Bross became a staunch supporter of its political candidates. His support for Abraham Lincoln helped him win support for a bid as lieutenant governor. In 1865, he accompanied future Vice President of the United States Schuyler Colfax on a trip west to California, later publishing a book about the excursion.

Biography
William Bross was born on November 4, 1813, in northwest Sussex County, New Jersey. He was the eldest of eleven children of Deacon Moses Bross and Jane (Winfield) Bross. He was the eldest because he was born a few minutes before his twin Stephen Decatur Bross. When they were nine, the family moved to Milford, Pennsylvania, in anticipation of the construction of the Delaware and Hudson Canal. The boys worked with their father to furnish lumber for the canal near Shohola.

In 1832, Bross enrolled at Milford Academy, then attended Williams College, rooming with his twin brother. William Bross was one of the founding members of The Social Fraternity at Williams, forerunner to Delta Upsilon. Shortly after graduating in 1838, he became the principal of Ridgebury Academy in Ridgebury, New York. In 1843, he began to teach at a school in Chester, Pennsylvania, where he worked for another five years. Starting in 1846, Bross took trips west to identify a better place to settle. He decided on the emerging city of Chicago, Illinois, which he reached on May 12, 1848.

Bross quickly formed a partnership with S. C. Griggs and the Newman & Co. publishing house, opening the book-selling firm of Griggs, Bross & Co. The partnership dissolved eighteen months later. In the autumn of 1849, Bross co-published the Prairie Herald, a religious newspaper, with Rev. J. A. Wright. Bross first achieved prosperity in 1852 when he teamed with Chicago Postmaster John L. Scripps to start the Democratic Press. The paper espoused Democratic viewpoints, but differed from the party line regarding slavery, notably opposing Stephen A. Douglas's Missouri Compromise.

When the Republican Party formed in 1854, Bross became a public speaker on behalf of the cause. He gave the first public endorsement of John C. Frémont for President in the West, speaking at Dearborn Park the night he was nominated. Bross toured southern Illinois, generally a pro-slavery area, to extoll the virtues of Frémont. While at the former State House in Vandalia, Illinois, he became acquainted with fellow Frémont campaigner Abraham Lincoln and the two would often speak at the same engagements.

In 1855, Bross was elected to the Chicago City Council, serving for two years. The Democratic Press struggled financially after the Panic of 1857. On July 1, 1858, the paper was merged into the Tribune, creating The Press and Tribune. Bross advocated for Abraham Lincoln for President following his nomination. Following the outbreak of the Civil War, in 1863 Bross helped to raise the 29th Regiment, United States Colored Infantry. It was commanded by one of his brothers, Col. John A. Bross, who was killed on July 30, 1864, during the Siege of Petersburg.

Bross's support of Lincoln helped him to gain nomination as the Republican candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Illinois under Richard J. Oglesby. He traveled with Speaker of the United States House of Representatives Schuyler Colfax in 1865 to examine the path west to California. two years later he traveled to Europe with his daughter.

Personal life

Soon after graduating from college and gaining his first job, in 1839 Bross married Mary Jane Jansen, the daughter of Dr. John T. Jansen. They had four sons and four daughters, but only one child, Jessie, survived to adulthood. Their daughter Jessie Bross married Henry Demarest Lloyd, known as a muckraking journalist. Grandson William Bross Lloyd was a founding members of the Communist Labor Party of America.

In 1879, Bross established the Bross Foundation at Lake Forest University in memory of his son Nathaniel. He donated $40,000 to invest over ten years to buy literature "on the connection, relation, and mutual bearing of any practical science, the history of our race, or the facts in any department of knowledge, with and upon the Christian Religion." University trustees offered $6,000 as a prize to one who would author a book best fulfilling these conditions; it was won by James Orr of United Free Church College for Problems of the Old Testament Considered with Reference to Recent Criticism. The fund also enabled the university to pay for lecturers, who included Francis Landey Patton, Marcus Dods, John Arthur Thomson, Frederick J. Bliss, and Josiah Royce.

Bross died in Chicago on January 27, 1890, and was buried in Rosehill Cemetery.

title: Charis Charisis

text:
Charis Charisis (; born 12 January 1995) is a Greek professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Turkish Süper Lig club Sivasspor.

Career

PAS Giannina
Born in Ioannina, Charisis began playing football with PAS Giannina. On 19 January 2014, he made his professional debut for PAS Giannina in a  match against Kalloni.

PAOK
Charisis will wear the jersey of PAOK from summer 2015 along with Nikos Korovesis. The two aces will be two of several acquisitions of PAOK in summer season. The players were about to sign to PAOK with the consent of the administration of PAS Giannina. According to absolutely reliable information is an agreement between the two major shareholders. Both are agreed on all the basics, with PAOK, but however nothing is announced yet.

On 25 June 2015, PAOK announced the acquisition of the player for four years for an undisclosed fee. On 25 October 2015, he made his Superleague debut with the club in a 3–1 home win against rivals Panathinaikos. On 10 January 2016, he scored his first goal against his hometown team PAS Giannina in a 3–0 home win game.

Loan to Sint-Truiden
On 26 June 2017, the details of Charisis borrowing to Belgian club Sint-Truiden are of interest as they prove that the deal is identical to what was done for Stelios Kitsiou. The borrowing comes with a €1.5 million purchase option and 20% resale.
On 2 December 2017, he scored his first goal with the club in an away 1–1 draw against Royal Excel Mouscron.
On 1 January 2018, he suffered a tear in the abductor muscle, following by a training deficit due to technical turf, that kept him out of the squad for almost 3 months.

Loan to Kortrijk
On 23 August 2018, Charisis will continue his career in Belgium as a loan from PAOK. The Belgian team announced the acquisition of the 24-year midfielder, while retaining a purchase option for the summer of 2019.

Atromitos
On 24 June 2019, Charisis penned a two-year deal with the Peristeri-based club. Charisis, a versatile midfielder, shared his emotions from the move: “I am very happy to join the Atromitos family. This is a new challenge for me and I will do my best to prove that I can offer a lot to this team. I will help the team achieve its goals in both Greece and Europe. Tomorrow, I am looking forward to training with the team for the first time in front of our fans.”  Charisis has moved to Atromitos as a free agent after leaving PAOK.

On 7 June 2021, the club extended his contract for two more years, until 2023.

In the summer of 2022, Sivasspor made three official offers to acquire Charisis, but all of them were turned down by Atromitos.

title: Cyclic corrosion testing

text:
Cyclic Corrosion Testing (CCT) has evolved in recent years, largely within the automotive industry, as a way of accelerating real-world corrosion failures, under laboratory controlled conditions.
As the name implies, the test comprises different climates which are cycled automatically so the samples under test undergo the same sort of changing environment that would be encountered in the natural world. The intention being to bring about the type of failure that might occur naturally, but more quickly i.e. accelerated. By doing this manufacturers and suppliers can predict, more accurately, the service life expectancy of their products.

Until the development of Cyclic Corrosion Testing, the traditional Salt spray test was virtually all that manufacturers could use for this purpose. However, this test was never intended for this purpose. Because the test conditions specified for salt spray testing are not typical of a naturally occurring environment, this type of test cannot be used as a reliable means of predicting the ‘real world’ service life expectancy for the samples under test. The sole purpose of the salt spray test is to compare and contrast results with previous experience to perform a quality audit. So, for example, a spray test can be used to ‘police’ a production process and forewarn of potential manufacturing problems or defects, which might affect corrosion resistance.

To recreate these different environments within an environmental chamber requires much more flexible testing procedures than are available in a standard salt spray chamber.

The lack of correlation between results obtained from traditional salt spray testing and the ‘real world’ atmospheric corrosion of vehicles, left the automotive industry without a reliable test method for predicting the service life expectancy of their products. This was and remains of particular concern in an industry where anti-corrosion warranties have been gradually increasing and now run to several years for new vehicles.

With ever increasing consumer pressure for improved vehicle corrosion resistance and a few ‘high profile’ corrosion failures amongst some vehicle manufactures – with disastrous commercial consequences, the automotive industry recognized the need for a different type of corrosion test.

Such a test would need to simulate the types of conditions a vehicle might encounter naturally, but recreate and accelerate these conditions, with good repeatability, within the convenience of the laboratory.
CCT is effective for evaluating a variety of corrosion types, including galvanic corrosion and crevice corrosion. One of the earliest introduced cyclic testing machines was the Prohesion cabinet.

Test Stages

Taking results gathered largely from ‘real world’ exposure sites, automotive companies, led originally by the Japanese automobile industry, developed their own Cyclic Corrosion Tests. These have evolved in different ways for different vehicle manufacturers, and such tests still remain largely industry specific, with no truly international CCT standard. However, they all generally require most of the following conditions to be created, in a repeating sequence or ‘cycle’, though not necessarily in the following order:

• A salt spray ‘pollution’ phase. This may be similar to the traditional salt spray test although in some cases direct impingement by the salt solution on the test specimens, or even complete immersion in salt water, is required. However, this ‘pollution’ phase is generally shorter in duration than a traditional salt spray test.

• An air drying phase. Depending on the test, this may be conducted at ambient temperature, or at an elevated temperature, with or without control over the relative humidity and usually by introducing a continuous supply of relatively fresh air around the test samples at the same time. It is generally required that the samples under test should be visibly ‘dry’ at the end of this test phase.

• A condensation humidity ‘wetting’ phase. This is usually conducted at an elevated temperature and generally a high humidity of 95-100%RH. The purpose of this phase is to promote the formation of condensation on the surfaces of the samples under test.

• A controlled humidity/humidity cycling phase. This requires the tests samples to be exposed to a controlled temperature and controlled humidity climate, which can either be constant or cycling between different levels. When cycling between different levels, the rate of change may also be specified.

The above list is not exhaustive, since some automotive companies may also require other climates to be created in sequence as well, for example; sub-zero refrigeration, but it does list the most common requirements.

Tests Standards

The below list is not exhaustive, but here are some examples of popular cyclic corrosion test standards,
ACT 1 (Volvo)
ACT 2 (Volvo)
CETP 00.00-L-467 (Ford)
D17 2028 (Renault)

title: Medal for Long Service, Bronze

text:
The Medal for Long Service, Bronze was instituted by the President of the Republic of Ciskei in 1988, for award to all ranks for ten years faithful service.

The Ciskei Defence Force
The Ciskei Defence Force (CDF) was established upon that country's independence on 4 December 1981. The Republic of Ciskei ceased to exist on 27 April 1994 and the Ciskei Defence Force was amalgamated with six other military forces into the South African National Defence Force (SANDF).

Institution
The Medal for Long Service, Bronze was instituted by the President of Ciskei in 1988. Ciskei's military decorations and medals were modelled on those of the Republic of South Africa and the Medal for Long Service, Bronze is the approximate equivalent of the Good Service Medal, Bronze.

Award criteria
The medal could be awarded to all ranks for ten years of faithful service.

Order of wear

Since the Medal for Long Service, Bronze was authorised for wear by one of the statutory forces which came to be part of the South African National Defence Force on 27 April 1994, it was accorded a position in the official South African order of precedence on that date. The position of the Medal for Long Service, Bronze in the official order of precedence was revised twice after 1994, to accommodate the inclusion or institution of new decorations and medals, first in April 1996 when decorations and medals were belatedly instituted for the two former non-statutory forces, the Azanian People's Liberation Army and Umkhonto we Sizwe, and again upon the institution of a new set of honours on 27 April 2003.

Ciskei Defence Force until 26 April 1994

Official CDF order of precedence:
 Preceded by the Independence Medal.
 Succeeded by the President's Medal for Shooting.
Ciskei official national order of precedence:
 Preceded by the Police Medal for Faithful Service.
 Succeeded by the Prisons Service Medal for Faithful Service.

South African National Defence Force from 27 April 1994

Official SANDF order of precedence:
 Preceded by the Faithful Service Medal of the Republic of Transkei.
 Succeeded by the Queen's Medal for Champion Shots in the Military Forces of the United Kingdom.
Official national order of precedence:
 Preceded by the Faithful Service Medal of the Republic of Transkei.
 Succeeded by the Prisons Service Medal for Faithful Service of the Republic of Ciskei.

South African National Defence Force from April 1996

Official SANDF order of precedence:
 Preceded by the Faithful Service Medal of the Republic of Transkei.
 Succeeded by the Bronze Service Medal of the Azanian People's Liberation Army.
Official national order of precedence:
 Preceded by the Faithful Service Medal of the Republic of Transkei.
 Succeeded by the Prisons Service Medal for Faithful Service of the Republic of Ciskei.

The position of the Medal for Long Service, Bronze in the official order of precedence remained unchanged upon the institution of a new set of honours on 27 April 2003.

Description
Obverse
The Medal for Long Service, Bronze is a disk struck in bronze, 38 millimetres in diameter and 3 millimetres thick with a raised rim, displaying the Coat of Arms of the Republic of Ciskei.

Reverse
The reverse is plain with a raised rim and the inscription "IMBASA YENKONZO ENDE" in three lines.

Ribbon
The ribbon is 32 millimetres wide, with an 8 millimetres wide brown band and a 3 millimetres wide white band, repeated in reverse order and separated by a 10 millimetres wide blue band in the centre.

Discontinuation
Conferment of the Medal for Long Service, Bronze was discontinued when the Republic of Ciskei ceased to exist on 27 April 1994.

title: Robert Turnbull (Australian politician)

text:
Robert Turnbull  (c.1819 – 21 November 1872) was a merchant and politician in colonial Victoria (Australia), and a member of the Victorian Legislative Council.

Life and career
Turnbull was born in East Lothian, Scotland, and moved to the Port Phillip District in 1840 via Van Diemens Land having arrived there in 1839 in the ship Charlotte. In Melbourne he became a partner in Turnbull, Orr & Co importing manufactured goods. He later formed R. & P. Turnbull in Market St, Melbourne.

He lived in Port Albert in the 1840s managing the interests of his firm in Gippsland where the partnership had a dozen pastoral properties between 1838 and 1857. His five brothers were part owners of some of these properties. He retained his business connections with Melbourne and in 1851 he was elected to the inaugural Melbourne Chamber of Commerce.

He was a member of the Melbourne Club and the Union Club.

His wife was Marion Paterson and they had seven children.

Politics
In September 1851 Turnbull was elected unopposed as member for Wimmera in the first (unicameral) Victorian Legislative Council.
He was sworn-in November 1851 and held the seat until resigning in May 1853.

Turnbull was again elected to the Victorian Legislative Council as member for Eastern Province in a by-election in January 1864, a seat he held until his death in St Kilda, Victoria. He was 53 years of age and was survived by his wife and five of their children.

Damien Drea, Peter Forde, Keith Forde, Rod Smith, Shane Lee

Background
The band released three singles, Blue Mirror Boy (2006) which was produced by Crowded House bass player Nick Seymour, Pyramid Clocks (2007) and Weighted Love (2007).
Blue Mirror Boy reached number 33 and Pyramid Clocks reached number 36 on the Official Irish Charts.
Their album Exit Here, which was recorded in Windmill Lane Studios in Dublin and produced by Richard Rainey, was released in June 2007 on Eavesdrop Music. The band toured in Ireland, the UK and North America and shared a stage with the likes of Editors, The Wonderstuff, Sultans of Ping and Ocean Colour Scene. They were named as 'Best Band' at the prestigious 'Indie Week' festival in Toronto, the 'Best New Musical Artist' at the MAMCA awards and "ones to watch" by the NME. The band's songs appeared on various compilation albums in the US, Australia, Germany, Canada and Ireland. Four of their songs were licensed to the American TV Network CBS. The band broke up in 2009.

Indie Week Connection
In 2007 over 100 bands travelled to Toronto, Ontario to take part in a week-long music festival called Indie Week. The first and only Irish band to make the trip were Vesta Varro. The Limerick five piece took Toronto by storm and won the festival. They returned to Canada four times the following year to play sell out shows across Toronto while their debut album 'Exit Here' peaked at number 3 on the college radio chart and their music videos were put on heavy rotation on Canada's biggest music station MUCH Music. All this attention sparked an interest in Irish bands applying to the festival the following year. The band became good friends with Indie Week founder and director Darryl Hurs and between them they set up INDIE WEEK Ireland in 2008.

title: Mansoor Hosseini

text:
Mansoor Hosseini (; born 1967) is an Iranian-Swedish percussionist and composer of classical music, born in Iran, who studied in Paris and Brussels. His works comprise chamber music and orchestral pieces. He founded the Ensemble Themus in Gothenburg, focussed on theatrical music.

Career

Hosseini studied composition with Philippe Capdenat and Yoshihisa Taïra in Paris. He studied music theory and computer music with Peter Swinnen at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels and composition with Carl-Axel Hall in the Musikhögskolan (sv) of Gothenborg. He later studied film scoring at the University of Gothenburg, and scriptwriting at the film school, now the . He studied with George Aperghis who encouraged him to compose theatrical music in the style of Mauricio Kagel.

In 2003, Hosseini founded the Gothenburg Music & Dance Company (GMDC), which in 2007 transformed into the Ensemble Themus in Gothenburg with a mission to popularize the concept of theatrical music by allowing actors and musicians to swap and intermingle their roles. His work in the field is inspired by modern dance, theatre and martial arts.

Hosseini has a great interest in improvisation both as a composer and performer. He sometimes adds sections to his compositions which are marked to let the musicians know that they can improvise in a controlled and measured way. He has been a lecturer in musical notation, composition, communication between musicians and composers, and the comprehension of musical notation for musicians.

He was awarded prizes, including the culture prizes of Gothenborg and of the Västra Götaland.

Works

Hosseini's duo Bones (second piece) for piano and cello was composed in 1998, described as a race of the two instruments, with "buddhistic cluster sounds" in the piano and "roaring three-notes" in the cello that
"float and combine like dream sequence". His string quartet Esfand II was premiered at the Sibelius Museum (fi) in Turku in 2011, when the town was a European Capital of Culture.

His composition Bright Blue Bird, In A Grey Red Sky for violin and orchestra was premiered on 22 June 2014 at the Allerheiligen-Hofkirche in Munich by the Nymphenburger Kammerorchester with Henja Semmler as the violinist and Manuel Nawri conducting. The work is based on a Persian legend about the mythical bird Simurgh. A thousand birds travel to find his feather (and enlightenment), but after a hard journey only 30 of them reach the destination, which turns out to be a lake reflecting their image.

title: 2014 Olsberg mid-air collision

text:
On 23 June 2014, a German Eurofighter Typhoon fighter jet and a Learjet 35 business jet participating in a military exercise collided mid-air over Olsberg, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. The Learjet subsequently crashed to the ground with the loss of both crew members on board. The Typhoon was damaged but managed to land safely.

Collision
The accident happened at 14:38 CEST (12:38 UTC). Two Eurofighter Typhoons were on exercise with the Learjet in the Elpe-Olsberg area. The Learjet was simulating a civilian airliner that had been hijacked and had broken off radio contact with Air Traffic Control, while the Typhoons were simulating a military response to such a scenario. The lead Typhoon intercepted the Learjet, and as the latter turned to follow it, the two aircraft collided.

The Learjet crashed about  from houses in Olsberg, killing both crew members. The Typhoon aircraft was severely damaged, but was able to land safely at Nörvenich Air Base, near Cologne. The second Typhoon landed at Cologne Bonn Airport.

Aircraft
The first aircraft was a Eurofighter Typhoon, msn GS0070. The aircraft was built in 2012. It was operated by Taktisches Luftwaffengeschwader 31 "Boelcke", Luftwaffe. It was based at Nörvenich Air Base.

The second aircraft was a Learjet 35A, registered D-CGFI, msn 35A-612, which had first flown in 1986. It was operated by the , a subsidiary company of Airbus Defence and Space, and was based at Hohn Air Base.

Investigations
Investigations into the accident were carried out by the General Flugsicherheit der Bundeswehr and the Bundesstelle für Flugunfalluntersuchung (BFU). The cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder of the Learjet were recovered on the day of the accident, from a site  from the crash site of the aircraft. The data from these devices were published in the BFU's interim report in September. The BFU's final report into the accident was published in August 2015.  It stated that the causes of the accident were:
 Immediate Causes:
 During positioning for the interception, the collision risk due to unexpected manoeuvres of the intercepted  airplane was not sufficiently taken into consideration.
 The Learjet crew did not take into account the risks due to possible limitations of the field of vision and the distraction of using the computer when deciding their task distribution.  Due to insufficient situational awareness during the intervention, the Learjet crew continued the turn with an excessive bank angle despite the loss of visual contact with the Eurofighter flying at the inside  of the turn.
 Systemic Causes:
 The operator had not specified in detail how the crew  should distribute their tasks during Renegade exercises.
 Neither the operator commissioned to conduct the aerial  target demonstration nor the Air Force had sufficiently  described the Renegade training nor had a commensurate  risk analysis been done.

title: O'Shaughnessy's chameleon

text:
O'Shaughnessy's chameleon (Calumma oshaughnessyi) is a species of chameleon, a lizard in the family Chamaeleonidae. The species is endemic to Madagascar. It was named after the British poet and herpetologist Arthur O'Shaughnessy.

Distribution and habitat
O'Shaughnessy's chameleon has a geographic range of about 18,000 square kilometers (6,950 square miles) throughout the southeastern portion of the central highlands of Madagascar. Its distribution extends from Tsinjoarivo, Ambatolampy in the north to Andohahela National Park in the south. The species is highly dependent on intact, humid forest as its habitat, living in lower densities on selectively logged territories.

Description
O'Shaughnessy's chameleon, being closely related to Parson's chameleon, is similar in shape and color but slightly smaller. Albert Günther, the first to scientifically describe the species, stated that the type specimen is a male measuring 15.5 inches (39.4 cm) in total length, including its tail which is 9 inches (22.9 cm) long. It is mostly brownish gray, with a darker throat and jaw. Although lacking horns, the male of the species has a short, bony structure on the snout. The female does not have this structure.

Behavior
During a 1997 study, researchers discovered that adult O'Shaughnessy's chameleons are most active in the morning and the evening.

Conservation and threats
Although in some places common, O'Shaughnessy's chameleon is severely threatened. Its populations are declining and fragmented, and the species is ranked as vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Although reports of illegal trade in the species do exist, its primary threat is habitat loss, such as logging and deforestation. While significant populations do exist in protected areas, further loss of inhabitable terrain could fragment and isolate these communities.

title: Lexington Limestone

text:
The Lexington Limestone is a prominent geologic formation that constitutes a large part of the late Ordovician bedrock of the inner Bluegrass region in Kentucky. Named after the city of Lexington, the geologic formation has heavily influenced both the surface topography and economy of the region.

It overlies the approximately Middle to Late Ordovician High Bridge Group, which is only exposed in some valleys of the Kentucky River,
and underlies the Clays Ferry Formation. Since the time of its deposition spans several million years which were accompanied by constant sea level and topographical changes, the lithology of the Lexington Limestone varies significantly with geographic location and stratigraphic position within the rock column. Due to this, it is divided into 11 sub-units which sometimes complexly grade into and intertongue with each other. The formation is largely composed of limestone, however shale is also usually present in varying amounts, and in some sub-units is dominant.

Geological setting
Around 450 million years ago, during the Late Ordovician period, much of what is now eastern Kentucky was a shallow, tropical carbonate platform located on the southern fringes of Laurentia since the craton was rotated around 45 degrees clockwise compared to its modern position. As a result of the ongoing Taconic orogeny, the region was cut off from the mainland by the deep Sebree trough. The trough served as a passage for cold, nutrient-rich oceanic water from the Iapetus ocean, which would mix with the warm surface waters of the surrounding carbonate platforms, enabling a large number of bryozoan-brachiopod-echinoderm patch reefs to develop throughout the area. Hence, several parts of the Lexington Limestone are characteristically rich in fossil content.

In preceding periods, particularly during the deposition of the Tyrone Limestone, most of the region was covered in tidal mudflats due to low sea levels. The lower parts of the Lexington Limestone, the Curdsville and Logana members, are characterized by the continuous encroachment of the sea onto the vast tidal flats, culminating in a period where much of the platform was too deep for an adequate supply of oxygen to be retained or for photosynthesis to be performed effectively.

Eventually, however, water levels began to fall, and a plethora of ecological environments emerged, ranging from extremely shallow and turbulent sandbars, through mid-depth waters highly suitable for patch reef development, to dark, anoxic depressions in the terrain. Each of these environments facilitated the deposition of distinct facies of varying lithological characters. Due to the lack of significant sources of terrigenous sediments, most sedimentary material was supplied through carbonate production of the local ecosystem.

Subdivisions

Curdsville Limestone
The Curdsville Limestone Member is the oldest and lowermost member of the Lexington formation. It was deposited as the sea level rose and transgressed across the tidal flats that dominated the region during the deposition of the preceding Tyrone Limestone. It is predominately composed of calcarenite initially deposited in turbulent, shallow water, but as the water column deepened, grain sizes became increasingly smaller. Due to heavy wave action, most organic debris in the lower part of the formation was broken up and heavily altered, making fossils rare and of poor quality. However, due to calmer conditions, fossils become more common in the upper parts of the member, when the water was not deep enough to be anoxic, but too deep for most wave-action. Whole and broken silicified fossils of brachiopods and gastropods are known, along with the occasional bivalve or trilobite.

Logana Member
The Logana Member was deposited during the time when the earlier deepening trend of the sea level reached its apex. It consists of an alternation of fine limestone and shale, with winnowed organic debris periodically arriving from shallower waters and covering a terrigenous, muddy substrate that continuously accumulated in the deep waters. The water level was normally too deep to provide an adequate supply of oxygen, hence fossils are rare, and mostly restricted to Cryptolithus trilobites (which are characteristic of deep-water environments). However, periodic improvements to the oxygen supply of the area resulted in the formation of shell beds when brachiopods of the species Dalmanella sulcata were able to gain a foothold. During longer periods of nondeposition, more complex ecological communities could form, as evidenced by the presence of limestones that progress upwards from low-diversity, whole fossil packstones to high-diversity grainstones.

Due to the region's topographical height compared to the surrounding landscape at the time, the Logana Member is absent around and southeast of Winchester since the area did not reach depths required for the shale's deposition. On the other hand, the member continuously thickens northward and westward as it approaches the deep waters of the former Sebree trough.

Grier Member
As sea levels began to fall, oxygen levels normalized throughout the platform, leading to a boom in biodiversity. Much of the Grier Member was deposited in waters with little wave action, so unabraded fossils of bryozoans and brachiopods are exceedingly abundant. Crinoids were also very common during the time of deposition, but few are preserved as complete fossils. The presence of gastropods with lime mud indicates that the environment was also highly rich in algae, while the lenticular and nodular structure of some beds point to an abundance of soft-bodied burrowing organisms which have not been fossilized. Rocks of the Grier Member also have an unusually high phosphate concentration - this was most likely due to the influx of nutrient-rich cold waters from the Sebree trough northwest, which was also a reason for the abundance of fauna throughout the member.

Tanglewood Member
The relative topographical uniformness of the region was disrupted after two linear horst-like blocks were uplifted around a central graben structure south of  Versailles, Kentucky as a result of Taconic tectonism. Owing to their shallower depth compared to the surrounding landscape, tidal currents began to cause accretions of bioclastic debris to form on top of them, giving rise to two major shoal complexes.

These sandbars are today preserved as the Tanglewood Member - a complex formation of well-sorted limestone that makes up the bulk of the Lexington Limestone in the inner Bluegrass region. Most of the debris that makes up the Tanglewood member represents the broken and abraded fragments of locally abundant calcified animals, mainly crinoids, brachiopods, bryozoans and ostracodes. Fragments of the bryozoan Constellaria teres, which was very common throughout the Lexington platform in general during the time period, constitute a substantial portion of the bioclastic material. In particular, where the Tanglewood member grades into the overlying Devils Hollow member, relatively intact thickets of C. teres and other bryozoans occur, in the so-called Constellaria beds.

The area of deposition of the Tanglewood has undergone several changes since the initial deposition of the member. Over time, due to rising sea levels or subsidence, the southwestern block came under deeper waters, as evidenced by the expansion of the shaley Brannon Member into the area. Later, an apparent reversal in the polarity of tectonic subduction at the Laurentia-Taconic boundary caused the entire horst-graben structure to invert - the formerly deep graben between the two Tanglewood horsts was raised, while the two horsts subsided, causing the area of deposition of the Tanglewood member to shift to the area previously associated with the Brannon member. This situation persisted until the end of Lexington time, when carbonate deposition in the area ended.

Brannon Member
Between the two Tanglewood horsts, an area of deeper water served as the environment of deposition for the Brannon Member. The unit is thickest in this area, reaching a thickness of about 6–8 meters, indicating that environmental conditions favorable to its deposition were present here for the longest amount of time. However, the Brannon Member was not limited purely to this graben structure - it gradually pinches out northeastward as well, and overlies the southwestern Tanglewood area, apparently as a result of its horst subsiding.

It lies atop a hardground that was rapidly flooded by waters coming from the western Sebree trough. The rocks themselves consist of calcareous shale interbedded with thin, micro-grained limestones representing storm deposits. Since the unit was deposited in between two active faults, earthquakes would occasionally cause soft deformation to the rocks.

Perryville Limestone Member
While most of the central and northern part of the inner Bluegrass region was dominated by usually turbulent, nutrient-rich waters and a relief dotted with shoals, the southwest was shallower, calmer and had a poorer supply of nutrients due to being cut off from the more agitated northern waters by the aforementioned chain of Tanglewood member calcarenite bars. Unlike the Grier member, the Perryville member lacks authigenic phosphate, as the area's supply of nutrients was cut off. Although the steadily rising salinity and lack of nutrients were unfavorable to many members of the local biota, molluscs and algae were abundant. Fossils of the enigmatic Tetradium, now believed to be a type of red algae, are common throughout the facies, and the algae Girvanella coats many of the fossils.

When the block underlying the southwest Tanglewood shoal zone sank, so too did the lagoons of the Perryvile Member. The formerly shallow, restricted waters gradually deepened and circulation improved, as evidenced by the Grier-like Cornishville bed, the topmost subunit of the member.

Sulphur Well Member
Once sea levels fell again, environmental conditions in the southwest became similar to those of the Grier Limestone and resulted in the deposition of the Sulphur Well Member. A notable characteristic that sets it apart from the Grier Limestone is the abundance of bryozoans, in particular the species Heterotrypa foliacea, which dominate the fossil content.

Devils Hollow Member
Following the aforementioned inversion of the horst-graben structure, the central graben was uplifted close to sea level. Once near the surface, a series of beaches began developing atop the block, which are today preserved as the Devils Hollow Member.

It consists of two distinct types of rock - gastropod coquinites and calcilulite-calcisiltite rock. The coquinites represent the beach deposits themselves, while the calcilulite-calcisiltite rock represents lagoons that developed in shallow depressions in the beach landscape, likely no deeper than a few meters.

Stamping Ground Member
A stratigraphic unit both underlain and overlain by the Tanglewood Member, the Stamping Ground Member is similar to the Millersburg unit, but is unconnected to it and stratigraphically lower. Deposited in relatively shallow waters, it is rich in stromatoporoids, particularly Labechia huronensis. Red algae and brachiopods are also present.

Millersburg Member
In the areas surrounding the Tanglewood shoals, conditions remained optimal for the existence of a relatively rich ecosystem. The Millersburg Member was deposited in these areas. In terms of fossil content, it is similar to the stratigraphically lower Grier Member, but is lithologically distinct due to having a much higher shale content. Shale is abundant due to a general increase in terrigenous sediment influx towards the end of Lexington time, rather than depth like in the Logana and Brannon members.

Strodes Creek Member
This member is rather bouldery, owing to its pinch-and-swell bedding, ball-and-pillow structure, and abundant stromatoporoids. Fossils of other fauna are also present, but only sporadically and in lesser numbers.

title: Marty Watt

text:
Martin “Marty” Watt (born 1952) is an American performer and actor, who played a pivotal role in the development of “performance poetry” in the early 1970s. In the late 1970s and 1980s, he moved increasingly into music and motion pictures.

Biography
Watt was born into a working-class family in the Fairmount neighborhood of Philadelphia. His father, Martin, was a civil servant, and his mother, Claire, was a housewife and semi-professional lounge singer.
He attended Frankford High School in Philadelphia, but left before graduating to pursue a career in the arts. Interested in poetry from an early age, Watt had begun composing his own poems, influenced by such authors as "...Keats, Shakespeare, and the old anonymous ballads", rather than by the Beat Generation poets so in vogue at the time.

Watt published intermittently throughout the early and mid-1970s in independent Philadelphia magazines and literary journals such as CONTACT, where his work appeared alongside that of Ted Berrigan, Tom Pickard and Otis Brown. But it was for his live performances that Watt gained wider notoriety. Initially in his native Philadelphia, but later in Washington and New York, Watt built a steady following and drew strong reviews for shows which challenged audience expectations as to what a “poetry reading” was.
Alan Kriegsman of The Washington Post said Watt “created an unclassifiable format of his own. Part recital, part sideshow, part seance. To call it a poetry reading would be like calling King Kong a nature film.”
His performances displayed an interest in stagecraft seldom seen in the conventional poetry reading- sound effects, lighting effects, specially built sets, props, costume design, as well as the occasional use of backup “singers”-all used in accompaniment to Watt's recital from memory, sometimes delivered rapidfire, other times resembling the apparent loose spontaneity of a stand-up comedian.

In Philadelphia, Watt had successful runs at Etage, the Mask and Wig Club, the Wilma Theater, and the Painted Bride, among others. In Washington D.C. he appeared at the Washington Project for the Arts in late January 1976, the three night series of performances being praised in both the Washington Post and the (now defunct) Washington Star.

As he increasingly integrated music into his performances, Watt ultimately formed a band with a number of Philadelphia musicians. Part of New York's “no wave” school, and influenced by Jamaican “dub-style” reggae vocalists, the band was fronted by Watt and included an evolving series of musicians, (among them Paul Dugan, Hank Ransome, and Chris Larkin). They performed under various names in New York and Philadelphia area venues, and recorded one never released album. The band's material was based on poems, or fragments of same, written by Watt and set to music composed by various other components of the band.

In 1982, Watt collaborated with painter and graphic artist Matt Marello on Marty Watt Is Not Matt Marello and Vice Verse (Wax Bean/Go Home Productions, 1982), a book of Watt poems illustrated by Marello.

In 1985, Watt starred in the motion picture Almost You, a romantic comedy set in New York. The film included the performance of one of Watt's own poems, "It Really Slits My Throat." Watt also wrote the lyrics to the film's closing credit theme "Closer to Near Than Far."

title: Joseph Naso

text:
Joseph Naso (born January 7, 1934), also known as Crazy Joe or the Double Initial Killer, is an American serial killer and serial rapist sentenced to death for the murders of four women. He was also implicated in the murders of other women.

Biography
Joseph Naso was born on January 7, 1934 in Rochester, New York. After serving in the United States Air Force in the 1950s, he met his first wife. Their marriage lasted for eighteen years, but after the divorce, Naso continued visiting his ex-wife, who lived in the San Francisco Bay Area. The couple had a son who later developed schizophrenia, and Naso spent his later years caring for him.

Naso took classes in various San Francisco colleges in the 1970s and lived in the Mission District of San Francisco and then in Piedmont, California, in the 1980s. He lived in Sacramento between 1999 and 2003 and finally settled in Reno, Nevada in 2004, where he was arrested in 2011. He worked as a freelance photographer and had a long history of petty crimes such as shoplifting, which he committed even in his mid-seventies. His acquaintances nicknamed him Crazy Joe for his behavior.

Victims

Confirmed
 18-year-old Roxene Ashby Roggasch was found dead on January 10, 1977, her body dumped near Fairfax, California. She had been strangled. Police estimated she was killed less than a day before. Police suspected that Roggasch had worked as a sex worker, but her family denied this.
 Carmen Lorraine Colon, 22, was found on August 13, 1978, along Carquinez Scenic Highway, a road between Crockett and Port Costa, just thirty miles from the first victim's body. A Highway Patrol officer investigating reports of a cattle shooting found a decomposing nude body that had been dumped. The body was later identified as Colon's.
 The body of Sharileea Patton, 56, washed ashore near the Naval Net Depot in Tiburon, California in January 1981. At the time of her death, she was a resident of the Bay Area looking for a job. Naso managed the residence where the woman used to live. He also took a photograph of the victim. He was considered the prime suspect by police in 1981 but gave the investigators only elusive answers and was not charged for the next thirty years.
 Sara Dylan, a Bob Dylan groupie (born Renee Shapiro, she later changed her name to that of the singer's former wife), was last seen on her way to a Dylan concert at the Warfield theater in San Francisco in May 1992. She was killed in or near Nevada County, California.
 In 1993, the body of 38-year-old Pamela Ruth Parsons, a waitress, was found in Yuba County, California. Parsons worked near Cooper Avenue in Yuba City, where Naso lived at that time.
 31-year-old Tracy Lynn Tafoya was found dead on August 14, 1994, also in Yuba County. The killer drugged, raped, and strangled her and left the body near Marysville Cemetery. It has been estimated that a week passed before the body was found.

Suspected
 On January 24, 1983, a gardener found a headless and partly decomposed body of an adult woman in Foss Creek behind Simi Winery in Healdsburg, California. Investigators later found a head during a search of the area. On April 28, 2011, her remains were exhumed to extract DNA. However, an identification has not been made and she is known only as the Sonoma County Jane Doe. Links between the victim and Naso were investigated because authorities found a "rape diary" belonging to Naso and one of the entries mentioned a "girl in Healdsburg."

Arrest, trial and conviction
Nevada parole and probation authorities arrested Naso in April 2010. While searching his home, authorities discovered a handwritten diary in which Naso listed ten unnamed women with geographical locations. The diary excerpts showed how Naso stalked and sexually assaulted his victims and then photographed them in sexual poses alongside mannequin parts. On April 11, 2011, he was charged with the murders of Roggasch, Colon, Parsons and Tafoya. The police listed all four victims as prostitutes. Later, prosecutors Dori Ahana and Rosemary Sloat introduced evidence identifying Patton and Dylan. On August 20, 2013, Naso was convicted by a Marin County jury of the murders. On November 22, 2013, a Marin County judge sentenced him to death for the murders. Naso was also a person of interest in the Rochester Alphabet murders case since four of his victims bore double initials, just as the Rochester murder victims and Naso had lived there for a long time. Naso, however, was ruled out of that case when DNA found on Californian victims was not matched to the DNA found on a Rochester victim's body.

title: William Downe Gillon

text:
William Downe Gillon (31 August 1801 – 7 October 1846) was a Scottish Whig politician.

The son of Andrew Gillon of Wallhouse (Linlithgowhire (now West Lothian)), Lieut-Col. in the Scots Fusilier Guards and Mary Anne Downe, daughter of William Downe of Downe Hall, Dorset, he was educated at Trinity College, Cambridge.

He was elected at the 1831 general election as the Member of Parliament (MP) for the Lanark Burghs.
That constituency was abolished by the Scottish Reform Act 1832, and at the 1832 general election he was returned for the new Falkirk Burghs. He was returned unopposed in 1835 and 1837, but defeated at the 1841 general election by the Conservative Party candidate William Baird.

William Downe Gillon was a major beneficiary of his elder cousin John Gillon's (d. 1809) will, including profits coming from the plantation at Wallhouse, Dominica, housing 137 enslaved people in 1817. This gave Downe Gillon an annuity of £500 per annum and the purchase of Herstmonceux Castle.

Freemasonry
Gillon was Initiated into Scottish Freemasonry in the Lodge of Holyrood House (St Luke's), No.44, on 29 November 1828. He was Master of the Lodge from 1843 until his death in 1846. He was the first Provincial Grand Master of Linlithgowshire, the name remains unchanged for Masonic purposes, and served 1832 until his death. His son, Andrew (1823-1888), was also a Scottish Freemason and Affiliated to his late father's Lodge in 1849.

title: Charles Gauthier

text:
Charles Gauthier (7 December 1831 – 5 January 1891) was a French sculptor who was made a Chevalier of the Légion d'Honneur in 1872.

Career
Gauthier was born in Chauvirey-le-Châtel. He enrolled at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris on 6 April 1854, where he studied under François Jouffroy. He won a silver medal at the 1861 Prix de Rome and was awarded medals in 1865, 1866 and 1869. He exhibited at the Salon between 1859 and 1882. He died in Paris.

Gauthier's allegorical statue entitled Moderation was placed in the foyer of the Paris Opera House in 1873. A plaster model for the statue exists in the collections of the Musée d'Orsay. His Young Poacher (Fr. Jeune braconnier) is on display in the grounds of the Château de Fontainebleau.

Sculpture of Cleopatra
Following restoration, a plaster sculpture of the suicide of Cleopatra, previously thought to be by Albert Darcq, was revealed to be a work by Charles Gauthier after Gauthier's signature was discovered during cleaning. The sculpture was acquired by the French government from the Salon of 1880, then sent to the French embassy in Tunis, then to Lille (home of Darcq) in 1886 and finally to the Palais des Beaux-Arts de Lille where the restoration took place.

Statue of Sergent Blandan
The statue of Sergent Blandan (Jean Pierre Hippolyte Blandan), French army hero of Algeria, was commissioned from Gauthier following a public competition. The statue once stood in Boufarik, but following Algerian independence it was moved to France in 1963, where it was placed in the courtyard of a barracks in Nancy. In 1990, it was moved to Rue du Sergent Blandan in Nancy.
