title: IXS Enterprise

text:
IXS Enterprise is a conceptual interstellar superluminal spacecraft designed by NASA scientist Dr. Harold G. White, revealed at SpaceVision 2013, designed for the goal of achieving warp travel. The conceptual spacecraft would make use of a modified version of the Alcubierre drive. Dr. White is currently running the White–Juday warp-field interferometer experiment in order to develop a proof of concept for Alcubierre-style warp travel, when possible. The Alcubierre drive uses exotic matter (not to be confused with antimatter) to travel faster than light.

While the concept had been out since 2013 the design of IXS Enterprise was popularized in June 2014 after a series of media outlets reported on the conceptual artwork done by Dutch artist Mark Rademaker in collaboration with NASA. According to Mark Rademaker, over 1,600 hours have been spent on the conceptual artwork that he created.

In 2012, NASA reported that it was experimenting with the concept of warp drive and the loop hole within Einstein's Theory of Relativity. By 2014, it was announced that designer Mark Rademaker had created a CGI representation of a new vessel that would achieve warp velocity. The vessel he designed was the IXS Enterprise, named after the famed ship of the Star Trek franchise. The energy required to power the warp drive, according to White, is approximately the negative (negative energy is required for the Alcubierre drive concept to function) mass–energy equivalence of Voyager 1, which has a mass of approximately 700 kilograms. Using E=mc2, −700 kilograms of mass is equivalent to ~−63 exajoules of energy (this number is not definitive and can be further reduced). The ship has two thick outer rings (to reduce required energy) that generate the warp field—a contraction of space ahead, and expansion of space behind it. The space inside the rings is optimized to fit more space for cargo, crew and equipment.

title: Contarinia quinquenotata

text:
Contarinia quinquenotata is a small midge which infests the flower buds of Hemerocallis, causing the buds to swell, remain closed and rot. It is a pest in several parts of the world.
It is known by the common names of daylily gall midge and hemerocallis gall midge.

Description
Adults are tiny greyish-brown midges about 2 mm long. Females deposit their eggs with their long, penetrating ovipositors on developing Hemerocallis flower buds during May through early July although this may vary by location. This fly is difficult to see when it is flying.

Life cycle
This fly is univoltine, having only one annual cycle. It mates shortly after emerging from its overwintering cocoon. Females lay eggs on developing Hemerocallis buds which hatch into 2-mm-long, elongate, legless white larvae. Their presence and feeding causes distortion of bud tissues and failure of buds to open. Infested buds characteristically become more globular than normal, tepals within buds become thickened, and a watery liquid is present between the tepals in which the larvae live.  A few through hundreds of larvae live within a single bud. Larvae emerge from disfigured buds and enter the soil in which they pupate, spend the winter as pupae, and emerge as adults in the following spring.

Distribution
Contarinia quinquenotata possibly originated in Asia where wild Hemerocallis are native although it was first recorded in Europe in the 1800s. The midge has been slowly spreading across the world in infested Hemerocallis plants and soil. This fly was first noted in the United Kingdom in 1989 and has now spread to many parts of the United Kingdom. It was first reported in Canada in 2001 and has spread into the USA.

The spread is assumed to occur from larvae within buds of imported plants or the soil in plant containers.

Commercial impact
Devaluation of infested plants by their failure to produce the attractive flowers favoured by gardeners for their colourful displays. Plants can safely be shipped only without their flower scapes, flower buds, and flowers and with bare roots. The need to control the midge by whatever means increases the cost of producing Hemerocallis plants.

title: Fay Chong

text:
Fay Chong (1912–1973) was a Chinese-American artist and educator, well known for his printmaking and watercolor painting. He was also known for his activities as an arts organizer, arts educator and WPA-era artist. Chong was active in the Pacific Northwest.

Early life and education
Fay Chong was born in Canton (modern Guangzhou), China in 1912, and moved to Seattle with his family in 1920. He attended public school, and studied art with Hannah Jones at Broadway High School, along with classmates Morris Graves and George Tsutakawa. He studied traditional calligraphy techniques during return visits to China in 1929 and 1935.

Career
In 1933, Chong, Andrew Chinn, Lawrence Yun, Yippie Eng, and others formed the Chinese Arts Club. Initially an informal co-op, they began holding regular shows at a shared studio in Seattle's International District, and eventually exhibited as an arts collective at the New York Chinese School. Artists Guy Anderson and William Cumming - who, along with Graves and Mark Tobey, would later become prominent members of the 'Northwest School' - were regular guests, joining them on art-making field excursions.

In 1938, during the Great Depression, Morris Graves helped Chong find work as an artist with the Federal Art Project of the Works Project Administration. He worked with the WPA, off and on, until 1942, mainly making linocut prints for various federal buildings and public places. He also became interested in watercolor painting at this time.

After the WPA, Chong worked various jobs, including several years at a YMCA school. In the mid-1950s - already a well-known, nationally exhibited "WPA artist" - he enrolled at the University of Washington, studying under Mark Tobey and others. He earned his B.A. degree in 1968, and M.A. degree at University of Washington in Arts Education in 1971. He taught art at Cornish College of the Arts, Seattle Central College, Washington Senior High School, and Ingraham High School.

His artwork fused traditional Chinese styles with American Regionalism and other modern developments. His later work incorporated elements of Abstract expressionism. His art has been exhibited at the Seattle Art Museum, the Frye Art Museum, the Zoe Dusanne Gallery, and the Francine Seders Gallery in Seattle; the Tacoma Art Museum, the Bellevue Arts Museum, Reed College in Portland, Oregon, the Santa Barbara Museum of Art in California, the Riverside Gallery in New York City, and in many other museums and galleries.

He was a member of the arts organizations Northwest Printmakers (treasurer and president), the Northwest Watercolor Society (president), the Puget Sound Group of Painters, and the Washington Art Association.

Chong was married to artist Priscilla Hwang. The two of them exhibited together at the annual Bellevue Arts and Crafts Fair for many years.

Fay Chong died of a stroke in 1973.

Chong's work is in many public museum art collections, including Smithsonian American Art Museum, National Gallery of Art, Tacoma Art Museum, the Art Institute of Chicago museum, Seattle Arts Museum, among others.

title: Miss Cook Islands

text:
The Miss Cook Islands is the national beauty pageant in the Cook Islands in under Miss Cook Islands Association (MCIA). The current reigning titleholder is Tajiya Sahay who was crowned in October 2019.

History

Early
The Maine Kuki Airani (Miss Cook Islands) national pageant was held for the first time in 1960 and was usually happening in every two years. In the Miss Cook Islands pageant, beauty encompasses physical attributes and qualities that are seen to represent the community at large; respectability, talent and commitment to Cook Islands value. An yet, competing for the representative role of Miss Cook Islands necessitates that the participants negotiate contradictory moral proscriptions that define Cook Islands femininity.

International competitions
In 1998 the Miss Cook Islands franchised the Miss Universe and Miss South Pacific licenses. The Miss Cook Islands was patronized by Pa Te Ariki Upokotini Marie and Ui Ariki. Between 1983 and 1999 the Miss Cook Islands winners went to the Miss Universe competition.

Today, Miss Cook Islands is patronised by the First Lady - Mrs Akaiti Puna - the wife of Prime Minister - Hon. Henry Puna.  Miss Cook Islands Association ('MCIA') is a non-profit organisation that owns and operates the Miss Cook Islands Pageant, based on Rarotonga, the Cook Islands. It has evolved into a professionally operated pageant with a passion & focus on developing young Cook Islands women to be the best versions of themselves; and giving them opportunities to showcase their talent & skill on a world stage.

'Identity & Heritage' are the core themes of Miss Cook Islands as the pageant strives to ignite cultural pride & self-worth in Cook Islands youth.  The main sponsors of the pageant include the Government of the Cook Islands and the largest companies in the Cook Islands.   Every year the Miss Cook Islands prepares the Top 3 to Miss World, Miss International and Miss Grand International competitions. 2018, 2nd Runner up will represent the country at Miss Grand International; 1st Runner up will represent the country at Miss International; Miss Cook Islands will represent the country at Miss World. 2020 will see the return of Miss Cook Islands to Miss Universe, in addition to Miss World and Miss Grand International 2020. Miss Cook Islands 2019 Coronation is scheduled for Saturday 26 October 2019 at the National Auditorium at Rarotonga, Cook Islands.

title: Waiting for the Dawn (The Mowgli's album)

text:
Waiting for the Dawn is a studio album by American indie rock band The Mowgli's, released on June 18, 2013 by Photo Finish Records/Island Records. The album and associated single "San Francisco" were the most successful of the band's career, placing on several charts.

Reception
Writing for Alternative Press, Evan Lucy opines that this album "sounds tailor-made for warm summer days" and compares it to 1960s sunshine pop, but complaining that while the release makes "a passable soundtrack for your summer parties, you’re likely to remember little of it the next morning". Editors at AllMusic Guide chose this as an Album Pick among the band's catalog and scored it three out of five stars, with critic Matt Collar comparing the band favorably to diverse acts such as Fleetwood Mac and Grouplove and sums up that this album makes for "enjoyable, laid-back listening". A brief, negative review came from Spin, ranking it two out of 10 for having "tiring cavalcade of cornball folk shouts".

title: Trochus cariniferus

text:
Trochus cariniferus is a species of small sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Trochidae, the top snails.

Description
The size of the adult shell of this species varies between 10 mm and 30 mm. The rather thin, false-umbilicate shell has a wide-conical shape. It is, dark green, the upper surface irregularly broadly maculate with crimson or purplish red. The ribs of the base are articulated with the same. The about six whorls are somewhat convex.  The upper surface of each whorl shows usually four or five spiral closely granose lirae, in the interstices between which sharp microscopic oblique and spiral striae are visible under a lens. The body whorl is carinated at the periphery, usually with six lirae on the upper surface, convex beneath, concentrically lirate, the lime very narrow, feebly granose or nearly smooth, separated by wide lightly obliquely striate interspaces, the inner lirae closer. The aperture is rhomboidal. The columella is not folded above, but straight from the insertion to the base, its edge simple. The umbilical area is deep, rather narrow, white, smooth, with a spiral rib just inside the margin, and with its outer border tinged with red.

Distribution
This marine species occurs in the Indian Ocean off Tanzania, Madagascar and South Africa.

title: Wong Siew Te

text:
Wong Siew Te (born 16 May 1969) is a Malaysian wildlife biologist known for his studies on the Malayan sun bear and the foundation of the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre in Sandakan, Sabah.

Biography
Wong Siew Te was born in Bukit Mertajam, Penang on 16 May 1969 as the youngest son of the tailor Wong Soon Kew, who operated the business "Soon Kew Tailor" in Bukit Mertajam from the 1950s to the mid-1980s. He grew up with eight other siblings – four elder brothers and four elder sisters. From 1976 to 1982 he joined Kim Sen Primary School in Bukit Mertajam and from 1982 to 1987 the Jit Sin High School, also in Bukit Mertajam.

He continued his studies 1989 at  Taiwan's National Pingtung University of Science and Technology and received his diploma in Animal Science & Veterinary in 1992.

In 1994, he studied Wildlife Biology at the University of Montana where he graduated as a Bachelor of Science in 1997. In 2002, he graduated as a Master of Science with the thesis The ecology of Malayan sun bear in the lowland tropical rainforest of Sabah, Borneo.

From 2002 to 2005 he co-chaired the Sun Bear Expert Team for the IUCN/SSC Bear Specialist Group, a science-based network of voluntary experts within the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN).

From 2002 to 2011, he pursued his doctorate in Fish and Wildlife Biology at the University of Montana, and conducted his dissertation entitled The effects of selective logging on bearded pigs (Sus barbatus) in lowland tropical rainforest of Borneo.

In 2008, he founded the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre (BSBCC) in Sepilok, a zoological centre for protection and conservation of the Malayan sun bear. Founded together with the organisation Land Empowerment Animals People (LEAP), the Sabah Wildlife Department (SWD) and the Sabah Forestry Department (SFD), it is a holistic approach to conserve the endangered species.

He was also a fellow of the Flying Elephants Foundation, which awards individuals from a broad range of disciplines within the arts and sciences.

Wong Siew Te now manages the Bornean Sun Bear Conservation Centre as CEO.

Recognitions
Wong was recognised as a wildlife hero featured in the book Wildlife Heroes: 40 Leading Conservationists and the Animals They Are Committed to Saving.

In conjunction with the Penang State Governor 76th birthday in 2014, Wong Siew Te was conferred Darjah Johan Negeri (D.J.N.; Member- Order of the Defender of State) to recognize his contribution to the society and the environment. This Order was instituted in 1969 and conferred on individuals who have contributed outstanding services in any field. This award is limited to one thousand one hundred and fifty living persons, excluding non-Malaysians who may be conferred this award on an honorary basis.

In the same year, Wong also being awarded the 2014 Outstanding Alumni Award by National Pingtung University of Science and Technology, Pingtung, Taiwan, for his outstanding achievement in wildlife conservation.

In September 2016, Wong received an Honorary Doctorate from University of Sunshine Coast, Australia, in recognition of his lifelong contribution on sun bear conservation in Southeast Asia.

Wong's recognitions continue in 2017 when he first was named a "Wira Negaraku" or “My Country Hero” by the Malaysian Prime Minister Office, Federal Government of Malaysia. On July 29, 2017, Wong was name a CNN Hero by global television network CNN.

title: Fragolino

text:
Fragolino is an Italian red wine produced in Veneto with grape, or uva fragola (literally, "strawberry-grape"). This kind of grape does not belong to the Vitis vinifera species, but to the related Vitis labrusca and it was introduced to fight a plague of a parasite named phylloxera, which was destroying the European grapevine and wine production.

This American grapevine was more resistant to the parasites. Venetian winemakers had the idea to make wine directly with this new grape, and this wine was delicious. Sweet and refreshing, the fragolino is a summer wine, with a delicate aftertaste of strawberry. Fragolino, as fragola means strawberry. Moreover, it was inexpensive and became popular around the Venetian area, where it was produced. However, Fragolino is considered a very low quality wine among connoisseurs
Today, it is almost impossible to find the real fragolino because its commerce was banned by the EU and the Italian government. Many stories have been told about the fragolino ban. The more official one is that it was banned because it is difficult to control methanol levels during wine production and methanol can be poisonous.

Some science revisionists argue that the Vitis labrusca was actually responsible, due to its resistance, to the spread of the phylloxera plague in Europe, and it was banned for this reason: but this confusing version of the story ignores the historical fact of its importation in Europe, France first, was made in the 19th century for the exact opposite reason, when the phylloxera was already destroying the Vitis vinifera cultivations.

title: Carina Massone Negrone

text:
The marchioness Carina Massone Negrone (Bogliasco, 20 June 1911 - Bogliasco, 19 March 1991) was an Italian aviator. She is considered to be one of the first heroines of the sky.

Biography
Married to the marquis Ambrogio Negrone (with whom she had a son, Vittorio), she was the first Italian woman to obtain (in 1933) a pilot's license from the Reale Unione Nazionale Aeronautica (RUNA).

A keen sportswoman (swimming, ski, tennis), she preferred flying, an activity that at the time was mainly practised by men, the intended interpreters of the manly dynamism encouraged by Futurism and Fascism.

On 5 May 1934, she established her first personal record by flying at an altitude of 5,544 metres with a Class C seaplane.
Following this achievement and with the support of her friend Italo Balbo, she decided to attempt to beat Maryse Hilsz's world record of 11,289 metres. As preparation, she trained as an air force pilot at Guidonia Montecelio airport.

On 20 June 1935, Carina took off from the Guidonia Montecelio base on a Caproni biplane equipped with a Pegasus 1110 engine, taking with her a heated jacket and oxygen cylinder.

Due to air rarefaction and low temperature at high altitude (down to -35 °C), her medical staff did not expect her to fly beyond an altitude of 11,000 metres.
However, despite a state of daze (that she referred to as euphoria), through sheer determination she reached 12,043 metres (39,402 feet), thus beating Hilsz's record by 754 metres.

Her record still stands for that category of propeller-powered planes.

She went on to achieve 7 additional flying world records, the last of which was on 19 June 1954, flying from Brescia to Luxor (Egypt) - 2,987 km in 13 hours 34 minutes, at an average speed of 299 km per hour.

In 1951 she took part in an aerial tour of Algeria alongside Ada Marchelli on a Macchi monoplane. She took part in various international competitions and she eventually founded a pilot school.

A commemorative stamp with a face value of L. 750 was issued in her honour by Poste Italiane in 1996. A square has been dedicated to Carina Negrone in her home town.

The Australian National University Boat Club is the rowing club of Australian National University and is based in Canberra, Australia, on the lower reaches of Sullivan's Creek, two hundred metres from the Lake Burley Griffin. Founded in 1964, the ANU Boat Club is Canberra's oldest rowing club. The present club boathouse has been located on the banks of Sullivan's creek since 1971.

History
The Australian National University Rowing Club was established in 1964 and is the oldest continuing rowing club in the Australian Capital Territory.

The Boat House
The present day boathouse was constructed in 1971 for the university's Sports Union, replacing a temporary corrugated iron shed used to house the racing shells of the ANU Boat Club. It was opened by Mr Moshe Erell, Israeli Ambassador to Australia who was also made an honorary member. The design included room for thirty boat racks, a maintenance workshop, showers and toilets, and space was made available for future expansions. More recent modifications include the installation of a roof safety system and additions of higher density racks and storage to accommodate Australian National University Mountaineering Club equipment.

After the significant drop in river height following repair work to the Scrivener Dam a temporary floating pontoon was installed and has remained as a launching site for boats onto the river.

In 2019 it was announced that the Boat Club would be moving to a new location on the other side of Sullivan's Creek as part of the University's SA8 building program.

title: Florence Stoney

text:
Florence Ada Stoney (4 February 1870 – 7 October 1932) was an Irish physician who was the first female radiologist in the United Kingdom. During World War I she served abroad as head of the X-ray department and of staff in makeshift hospitals.

Early life

Stoney was born 4 February 1870 in Dublin to George and Margaret Sophia Stoney (30 September 1843 - 13 October 1872). Her father was a mathematical physicist who would later serve as Secretary of Queens University, and was an advocate for women's right to higher education in Ireland. His efforts are considered to be among the principal reasons that women could qualify for a medical license. Florence Stoney, who was of weak health as a child, was at first privately educated in the home, but then attended the Royal College for Science of Ireland with her sister Edith. In 1883 the Stoney family moved to London in order to provide higher education for the daughters since this was unavailable for women in Ireland at the time. Stoney attended the London School of Medicine for Women where she was a distinguished student with great academic achievements in subjects such as anatomy and physiology. She obtained her MBBS with honours in 1895 and a Doctor of Medicine in 1898, going on to specialise in radiology.

Career and role in World War I
Stoney worked as an ENT clinical assistant at the Royal Free Hospital as well as spending six years as a demonstrator in anatomy at the London School of Medicine for Women.

After this she spent a short amount of time in the Victoria Children's Hospital in Hull and then went on to establish an X-ray department in the Elizabeth Garret Anderson Hospital for Women in London in 1902. At the hospital she carried out a variety of work but mainly dealt with X-rays, often developing the radiographic plates at her own house. She was the first female radiologist to work in the United Kingdom at a time when knowledge on radiology and the equipment involved was still in its developmental stages. She was forced to work in poor conditions with badly ventilated rooms and a lack of space for X-ray work. Stoney was given no assistance and had to do the majority of the work on her own. Furthermore, she was excluded as a member of the medical staff and from the X-ray department committee. In 1906 she set up a practice in Harley Street.

Stoney left the hospital at the start of the war. Stoney had 13 years of experience in her field when World War I broke out in August 1914. Stoney and her sister Edith, a medical physicist, volunteered to assist the British Red Cross, but both were refused by surgeon Frederick Treves since they were women. Despite the refusal, Stoney prepared an X-ray installation and helped to organise a unit of women volunteers alongside Mrs. St. Clair Stobart, Women's Imperial Service League and the Belgian Red Cross to aid the Belgian soldiers in Antwerp. The team converted an abandoned music hall into a makeshift hospital where Stoney managed the surgical unit as head of the medical staff and radiologist. The hospital came under fire and after enduring ongoing shellfire for 18 hours, the hospital was evacuated. The team walked to Holland, where they managed to cross the Scheldt River on buses carrying ammunition, 20 minutes before the bridge was blown up. She and her unit earned the 1914 Star for bravery.

She continued working in a hospital near Cherbourg in France, mainly dealing with cases relating to compound fractures and locating bullet fragments in wounds. During this time, Stoney became experienced in recognizing dead bone and discovered that removing it would speed up recovery.

In March 1915, the Cherbourg hospital was no longer needed and Stoney moved back London. She began full-time work at the 1000-bed Fulham Military Hospital. She was one of the first female physicians that granted to serve as a full-time worker under the British War Office and went on to receive the Order of the British Empire in June 1919. She worked as the Head of the X-ray and Electrical Department and remained there till 1918.

Later life and death
In her later years, Stoney suffered from ill health, largely attributed to her over-exposure to radiation in her work. It was reported that she had X-ray dermatitis of her left hand, a painful skin condition associated in modern times with radiation therapy as a treatment for cancer. Stoney moved to the south coastal town of Bournemouth in England; here she was on the staff of two hospitals, practicing radiology part-time. She occupied the position of Honorary Medical Officer to the Electrical Department of the Royal Victoria and West Hants Hospital in Bournemouth. Stoney was the founder and president of the Wessex branch of the British Institute of Radiology. She served as the consulting actinotherapist at the Victoria Cripples Home. During retirement she penned a number of articles in contribution to the medical literature of the time. She published research on topics such as fibroids, goitre, Graves' disease, soldier's heart, rickets and osteomalacia. Stoney retired from all of her hospital positions in 1928 at the age of 58. She, along with her older sister Edith, travelled in retirement. One trip was to India, where Stoney wrote her final scientific paper, the subject of which was osteomalacia (bone softening), in particular in relation to pelvic deformities in childbirth. She studied and investigated this topic overseas, and specifically the association between UV exposure, vitamin D and skeletal development. In India, she also used her expertise to advise on the use of UV light in hospitals. Stoney died at the age of 62, on 7 October 1932. She was suffering from a long and painful illness, vertebral cancer, again largely attributed to her work in the presence of high levels of radiation. The British Journal of Radiology published her official obituary which spanned five pages, containing many warm personal testimonials. After her sister's death, Edith Stoney continued to travel and research.

Chrousos at the National Institutes of Health.

Career and scientific awards
From 2001 to 2004 Bornstein held a C3-Professorship and was assistant director of the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism at the University of Düsseldorf. From 2000 to 2002 he was scientific coordinator of a NIH-state-of-the-science-conference on adrenal tumors. In 2002 he was offered the directorship for internal medicine at the University of Adelaide and the Bo Schembechler Chair of Medicine at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, US, which he declined. Since 2004 he has held a C4-Professorship and directorship of the Department for Internal Medicine in Dresden.

He has been an honorary professor at the Hong Kong University since 2012 and a professor and honorary consultant at King's College London since 2013.

Research
Bornstein's scientific focus lies on the adrenal gland as on organ of stress, stem cell research and advances in islet cell transplantation as a therapy for diabetes. This is why, presently, Dresden is the only active German center of this treatment. Since 2011 Bornstein  has been spokesman for  the research group KFO 252 of the German Science Association (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft DFG) and one of the coordinators of  the Paul-Langerhans-Institute Dresden. Since 2012, he has been scientific secretary of the DFG Transregio 127.
Main research areas are: endocrinology and internal medicine (e.g. adrenal gland, stress, and stem cell research), diabetes, transplant medicine (e.g. new strategies to improve diabetes treatment), public healthcare and preventive medicine (prevention of diabetes)

Teaching
Education of doctors and scientists, conduction of state exams and certificates of completion of training

Hospital work
Bornstein is chief of the medical clinic and policlinic III (Medizinische Klinik und Poliklinik III) at the university hospital Carl Gustav Carus in Dresden, which is a major centre of treatment and research of diabetes mellitus type I and type II in Europe as well as its sequelae, like the diabetic foot syndrome, heart and blood vessel diseases and diabetic nephropathy. A major topic is creating individual treatment strategies to prevent the increase in diabetes prevalence. That is why in 2009 they created the first professorship for diabetes prevention in Germany. In 2008 started the only currently active program of islet transplantation in Germany. This treatment is a great benefit for patients with diabetes type I with great deviations in their glucose blood levels. Recent research includes a bioreactor of insulin-producing cells in a small implantable chamber which offers an immunoisolation, making the implantation possible without immune suppressive therapy.
