Minuscule 566
| type = Byzantine/mixed | cat = none | hand | note }} Minuscule 566 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε 93 (Soden), also known as the ''Empress Theodora's Codex. It is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment, dated palaeographically to the 9th century. Description The codex contains the text of Gospel of Matthew and Gospel of Mark on 259 parchment leaves (size ). The text is written in two columns per page, 23 lines per page, There are some marginal notes in uncial letters were made. It contains scholia at the margin in small uncial script. According to Tischendorf scholion to the Gospel of Matthew cites the Gospel of the Hebrews: : Matthew 4:5 το ιουδαικον ουκ εχει εις την αγιαν πολιν αλλ εν ιλημ : Matthew 16:17 Βαριωνα το ιουδαικον υιε ιωαννου : Matthew 18:22 το ιουδαικον εξης εχει μετα το εβδομηκοντακις επτα και γαρ εν τοις προφηταις μετα το χρισθηναι αυτους εν πνι αγιω ευρισκετω εν αυτοις λογος αμαρτιας : Matthew 26:47 το ιουδαικου και ηρνησατο και ωμοσεν και κατηρασατο. Phrase "το ιουδαικου" probably means Gospel of the Hebrews. Text The Greek text of the codex Aland did not place in any Category. History De Muralt dated the manuscript to the 9th or 10th century. Currently it is dated by the INTF to the 9th-century. The manuscript was brought by Constantin von Tischendorf in 1859. The manuscripts was examined and described by Tischendorf (along with the codices 565, 568-572, 574, 575, and 1567), by Tregelles, Eduard de Muralt, and Kurt Treu. Formerly it was bounded in one manuscript with Codex Tischendorfianus III. The codex now is located at the National Library of Russia (Gr. 54, 121 fol.; Gr. 282, 1 fol.) at Saint Petersburg.

Osney Cemetery
thumb|View of Osney Cemetery. thumb|upright|Lych gate entrance to the cemetery. Osney Cemetery (also known as Osney St Mary Cemetery) is a disused Church of England cemetery in Osney, west Oxford, England. Its entrance is in Osney Lane, which runs off the south end of Mill Street, south of Botley Road and near the site of Osney Abbey. It borders the Cherwell Valley Line railway a short distance south of Oxford railway station. The cemetery was established in Oxford in 1848, along with Holywell Cemetery and St Sepulchre's Cemetery, because central Oxford churchyards were becoming full. In 1855, new burials were forbidden at all Oxford city churches, apart from in existing vaults. Each of these three new parish cemeteries provided an extension to the churchyards for a specific group of nearby churches, with each church having its own area. Osney Cemetery covered the four ancient parishes of St Aldate's, St Ebbe’s, St Peter-le-Bailey, and St Thomas, and the new parish of Holy Trinity, which had been taken out of St Ebbe’s parish in 1845. The burials in Osney Cemetery are recorded in the parish register for each of these churches just as if they had taken place in its actual churchyard. From 1872 the dead of the new church of St Frideswide, whose parish had been taken out of that of St Thomas, were also buried in Osney Cemetery. Christ Church was still an extra-parochial non-royal peculiar (exempt from the jurisdiction of the diocese) when Osney Cemetery opened, but by 1901 it had been given space in the St Thomas's section of Osney Cemetery called "Christ Church portion”. The entrance to Osney Cemetery has a lych gate. The cemetery contains 26 Commonwealth war graves from the First World War and also one British soldier killed in the Second World War. The cemetery is now closed to new burials. It is still a large green space in central Oxford. In 2006 it was proposed to plant more native trees in the area.

Enteromius ablabes
}} Enteromius ablabes is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Enteromius. It occurs in West Africa from the Sahel to the coast between Guinea and Nigeria, south to the central Congo Basin. found it to be sister to E. macrops. Yang et al. (2015) using the same sequence found it to be sister to E. anema, and Hayes et al. (2017) found the Tsigenopoulos et al. specimen to be sister to E. anema + E. cf. guildi and newly sequenced specimens from Guinea to be sister to be in a clade with a specimen of E. punctitaeniatus and that clade sister to E. bigornei and E. foutensis. The Tsigenopoulos et al. specimen is from Ivory Coast, but a catalog number is not provided to check identity. Enteromius punctitaeniatus is a species very similar in appearance to E. ablabes, differing by having 9 circumpeduncular scales vs. 12. Enteromius ablabes is likely polymorphic with one species already described from within it (E. parablabes) (Lévêque et al. 1990). This description conforms to the current hypothesis on the identity of E. ablabes; however, the species will need to be examined in greater detail to determine if there are multiple species present. Species description Synonymy Puntius (Barbodes) ablabes, Bleeker 1863. Barbus spurrellii Boulenger 1913. Syntypes RMNH 2466 (2), Dabo Crom, Guinea [per Trewavas 1974), the translation is Krom Town, which is a small town just to the west of Accra, Ghana]. Diagnosis Per Lévêque et al. (1990)<sup>[6]</sup>  and de Weirdt et al. (2007), Enteromius ablabes can be separated from potentially sympatric species in the following manner. Enteromius ablabes can be separated from E. carchahinoides, E. cadenati, E. dialonensis, E. diamouanganai, E. guineensis, E. guirali, E. holotaenia, E. martorelli, E. nounensis, and E. prionacanthus by having the last simple ray of the dorsal flexible (vs. forming a spine) and from all of those except E. nounensis by lacking serrae on the posterior margin of the last simple ray (vs. present). It can be separated from E. aloyi, E. anema, E. aspilus, E. bourdariei, E. brazzai, E. carens, E. clauseni, E. collarti, E. condei, E. jae, E. leonensis, E. nigroluteus, E. nounensis, E. parajae, E. pobeguini, E. pumilus, E. salessei, E. stigmatopygus, E. sylvaticus, and E. trispilomimus by having two well-developed barbels (vs barbels absent or a single pair of small barbels). It can be separated from E. guildi, E. leonensis, E. niokoloensis, E. punctitaeniatus, E. salessei, E. stigmatopygus, E. trispliomimus, and E. zalbiensis by having 11-12 circumpeduncular scales (vs. 8-10). It can be separated from E. rouxi by having 22-27 lateral line scales (vs. 34–37). It can be separated from E. bagbwensis, E. brichardi, E. callipterus, E. foutensis, E. guirali, and E. raimbaulti by having a dark longitudinal stripe (vs. stripe absent). It can be separated from E. aliciae, E. anniae, E. baudoni, E. boboi, E. camptacanthus, E. catenarius, E. eburniensis, E. kuiluensis, E. lauzannei, E. liberoides, E. huguenyi, E. perince, E. macinensis, E. sublineatus, E. taeniurus, E. tegulifer, E. tiekoroi, E. thysi, E. traorei, E. trispiloides, E. trispilos, and E. walkeri by having a longitudinal dark stripe and no round spots (vs. round spots present). It can be separated from E. nigeriensis by having a straight, wide, longitudinal stripe (vs narrow stripe upturned beneath dorsal fin). It can be separated from E. aloyi, E. atakorensis, E. bigornei, E. carens, E. ditenensis, E. chlorotaenia, E. inaequalis, E. nigeriensis, E. nigroluteus, E. niokoloensis, E. rubrostigma, E. subinensis, E. stauchi, and E. zalbiensis by having 4 scales above the lateral line (vs 5–6). It can be separated from E. bawkuensis, E. clauseni, E. collarti, E. condei, E. jae, E. leonensis, E. nounensis, E. parajae, E. salessei, E. stigmatopygus, and E. sylvaticus by having a complete lateral line (vs. incomplete or absent). It can be separated from E. melanotaenia by having a narrow longitudinal band that is less than one scale wide (vs. very broad band that is greater than one scale wide at least anteriorly). Separation of E. ablabes from E. parablabes is difficult, but the dorsal fin is shorter and straighter in E. paralabes and the head is more rounded; E. paralabes is only known form the type locality on the Atakora massif in Benin while E. ablabes is broadly distrinuted. It can be separated from E. aboinensis, E. brazzai, E. brichardi, E. callipterus, E. macrops, E. nigroluteus by having no dark spot in the dorsal fin (vs. dark spot or blotch present along the dorsal edge of fin, along the anterior rays, or at base of anterior rays). It can be separated from species of Clypeobarbus by having 4 scales above the lateral line (vs. 2). Description Body moderately deep. Body contour rising convexly from tip of snout to origin of dorsal fin, lowering as straight line to proximal caudal-fin rays, then rising to caudal fin. Ventral profile moderately convex from lower jaw to origin of anal fin then convex to caudal fin. Caudal peduncle deep. Snout rounded, mouth subterminal. Body wide, width greatest approximately at middle of dorsal fin. Dorsal surface in front of dorsal fin forming a smooth curve and from dorsal fin to caudal fin flat. Ventral surface largely flat to pelvic fins and then forming rounded curve. Eye large, ovoid with anterior slightly narrower than posterior. Pit lines well developed below eye (extending as lines below infraorbital canal as well as some areas between lines) and on posteroventral side of preopercle, present as slight lines elsewhere on head. Lateral line complete, extending one or two scales beyond end of caudal peduncle. Two barbels present; anterior barbel short, extending just beyond base of posterior; posterior barbel longer, extending to anteriormost exposed branchiostegal. Lips fleshy. Fill membranes free from isthmus. Scales large with few, divergent striae. Abdominal scales large, covering entire venter in three rows across most of abdomen. Scales just slightly covering base of caudal fin. Vent situated just anterior to anal fin. 22–27 lateral line scales, 4 scales above lateral line, 4 scqales below lateral line, 18 circumferential scales, 12 circumpeduncular scales. Dorsal fin triangular, last unbranched ray longest, not thickened, lacking serrae; iii,8. Pectoral fin roughly triangular with rounded posterior edge; extending to approximately two scales anterior to anal fin. Pelvic fin roughly triangular with rounded posterior edge; extending to approximately two scales anterior to vent. Anal fin quadrangular with almost straight posterior edge; extending to approximately 3–5 scales from procurrent rays; iii,5. Caudal fin forked with tips slightly rounded. Color in life Body straw-colored to yellow above fading to white on venter; sometimes with fluorescent turquoise marks above lateral line down whole body and below lateral line on caudal peduncle, on the dorsal posterodorsal portion of head, and ventral portion of head behind jaws. Fins may be colored as sides or hyaline. Dark stripe extending from tip of snout to end of caudal peduncle (may be lighter on head and darkest on caudal peduncle); dark stripe overlain by darker vertical dashes between scales, elongate dark spot occasionally present on base of caudal fin contiguous with lateral stripe. Remainder of scales outlined with dark pigment, sometimes with broader, darker areas where scales in scale rows meet (coloring less intense below lateral line). Scattered, dark chromatophores often present on scales, particularly anterodorsally. Dorsal rim of eye burnt orange to red. Color in alcohol Color similar to life except base color cream-yellow and darkly pigmented areas more intense (particularly above lateral stripe (light area present between lateral stripe and shaded dorsal coloration. Turquoise and red colors absent. Distribution Enteromius ablabes is present in Atlantic Coast and Gulf of Guinea basins from the Senegal (Mali) and Kaikoure (Guinea) rivers in the east to the Sanaga River (Cameroon) in the west. Additional localities are present in the upper Lake Chad (Central African Republic) and upper Congo River (Central African Republic, Democratic Republic of Congo) basins. Based on distribution records in GBIF<sup>[9]</sup>. Etymology Per the Etyfish Project (<nowiki>https://etyfish.org/cypriniformes9/</nowiki>) from the Greek αβλαβής meaning harmless, in reference to the flexible, unserrated dorsal-fin spine.

|birth_place = Waukesha, Wisconsin |death_date |death_place |residence = Hartland, Wisconsin |alma_mater = University of Wisconsin&ndash;Madison |profession = Politician |spouse = Amy Newcomer |website = [http://www.scottanewcomer.com Campaign website] }} Scott Newcomer (August 12, 1965) is a Wisconsin legislator and politician. Born in Waukesha, Wisconsin, Newcomer graduated from Waukesha South High School in 1983 and received a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Wisconsin&ndash;Madison in 1989. In 1995, Scott co-founded the American Home Inspection Training Institute (AHIT), which he sold to a private equity firm shortly before Newcomer was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly in a 2005 special election. While in office, Newcomer was the Chair of Financial Institutions as well as on the Committee of Health, Assembly Committee on Public Health and sponsored or co-sponsored 22 bills. In May 2010, Newcomer announced he would not seek reelection stating, "It has been an honor and privilege to represent the people of the 33rd State Assembly District in the Wisconsin State Legislature. The best part of my job has been the many wonderful people I've met throughout Waukesha County and Wisconsin." In July 2011, Newcomer announced the formation of Newcomer Consulting Group, a business procurement, consulting and lobbying firm based in Madison, Wisconsin. Newcomer's Consulting Group represents largely Republican political groups in Wisconsin, such as The Wisconsin Retail Association and the Independent Business Association of Wisconsin. Newcomer is also the owner of House to Home Inspections, a successful full service Home Inspection company in SE Wisconsin that he runs with his wife Amy. Legislation Newcomer has sponsored legislation to streamline consolidation between municipalities by allowing for dual tax rates; this was intended to make consolidation between the Village of Pewaukee and the City of Pewaukee. In April, 2007, Newcomer sponsored legislation to allow up to six ounces of beer to be given as free samples by stores. The bill was signed into law in May, 2007. In March, 2008, Newcomer sponsored legislation to enact professional employer organizations (PEOs) in Wisconsin, which allow small businesses to outsource the provision and management of benefits to external groups. Autism Mandate. Newcomer and the Assembly Republicans said the state should dedicate roughly $6 million more to the Medicaid autism program to eliminate the waiting list. "The most important aspect of my bill was to take care of all those kids on the waiting list. That's what we had to do now because nobody had the perfect solution for the long term," Newcomer said. Newcomer along with fellow Republican Kevin Petersen of Waupaca voted against the children's autism health insurance mandate that was proposed by an executive order by Governor James E. Doyle. Newcomer and Petersen who both have children with autism were the two building blocks in getting the bill defeated in the Republican controlled assembly claiming that less children with autism would receive coverage even if the mandate passed.ControversyWhen Newcomer first ran for office, he listed his address at a Delafield home he was building but did not yet occupy; he lived instead in Elm Grove, Wisconsin. A special prosecutor cleared Newcomer of wrongdoing, and Newcomer pointed out he acted on the advice of the State Elections Board. Donna Frake In August 2009, Newcomer filed for divorce from his wife. In September 2011, Newcomer was re-married to business partner Amy Shirley, a small business owner and domestic violence advocate (www.dawnwi.org). Newcomer and his wife reside in Newcomer's former district with their four daughters. In January 2010 the Genesse Center strip mall owned by Newcomer, home to the Lake Country Pool & Spa, sustained $1 million in property damage due to an electrical fire.NotesExternal links *[http://www.scottanewcomer.com/ Campaign website] *[http://www.housetohomeinspect.com/ Business website] Category:Politicians from Waukesha, Wisconsin Category:University of Wisconsin&ndash;Madison alumni Category:Republican Party members of the Wisconsin State Assembly Category:1965 births Category:Living people Category:People from Hartland, Wisconsin Category:Politicians from Waukesha County, Wisconsin Category:People from Elm Grove, Wisconsin Category:21st-century members of the Wisconsin Legislature

David Whiffen
David Hardy Whiffen FRS (15 August 1922 – 2 December 2002) was an English physicist and pioneer of infrared and Electron Spin Resonance known for the "Whiffen Effect". Life He was born in Esher, Surrey into a family of chemical manufacturers and educated in Broadstairs, Kent and at Oundle. He gained a 1st Class Honours Degree at Oxford in 1943 under eminent physicist Sir Harold Warris Thompson and continued the pursuit of postgraduate research with Thompson until 1949. He worked in a number of areas including Radar and fuel analysis during the war. He spent a year in 1946-47 at the Bell Telephone Research Laboratories at Murray Hill, New Jersey, working with five Nobel Laureates. In nine months Whiffen developed a sensitive experimental cell usable over a wide range of temperature. On his return to England he accepted a post as lecturer in the Chemistry Department at Birmingham University from 1949 to 1959. Most of his papers at that time pushed the boundaries on infra red absorption frequencies of materials. He then became head of the Molecular Science Division at the National Physics Laboratory (NPL) from 1959 to 1968, leaving to be successively Head of Physical Chemistry, Professor of Physics, Dean of Science and Pro-Vice-Chancellor at Newcastle University between 1968 and 1983. His primary area of expertise during those years was radiation and how it is absorbed by materials and what this tells us about the radiation and the materials themselves. Whiffen worked out the electron-spin resonance signal of a free radical in a crystal lattice. He was a spectroscopist, chemical physicist, specialist in wave superposition, the interaction between radiation and matter, and a pioneer in ESR (Electron Spin Resonance) and later NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance). He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1966. He retired in 1985 to Somerset where he died aged 80. He had married Jean Bell in Glasgow in 1949. Their four sons survived him. The Whiffen Effect Spin paired molecules. In EPR spectroscopy of organic radicals the effect explains the way hyperconjugative proton coupling in a cyclic radical can be enhanced or forbidden according to the symmetry of the orbital with which it hyperconjugates, opening the way to other work in the field. Other significant contributions He was known as a very practical man, but with deep intellect and understanding. He constructed a 9 GHz Spectrometer at the NPL and turned it into one of the world's top ESR and NMR Laboratories, testing theories and models. He was the first to successfully test the predictions of the underlying theory of Peter Debye, the Dutch-American theoretical physicist who received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1936 for his work on molecular structure, the theory of dipole moments in liquids and the diffraction of X-rays and electrons in gases. He was not known as self promotional, and when on arrival at Newcastle Chemistry Professor Clemo suggested people were saying he 'shouldn't have come' he merely raised his eyebrows and nodded slightly in apparent agreement. He was seen as exceptionally effective and a memorial lecture is held in his name.

José Yacopi
José Yacopi (28 December 1916, in Victoria, Spain – 11 August 2006, in San Fernando, Argentina) was a Spanish, and later Argentinian luthier. Yacopi learned the art of guitar making from his father, Gamaliel Jacopi. In 1944, at the age of 27, he won first place at the Concurso Provincial de Artesanía ("Provincial Crafts Competition") in Barcelona and at the Concurso Nacional de Oficios Artesanos ("Official National Crafts Competition") in Madrid for a Neapolitan-style mandolin. In 1947, Yacopi and his father created, and later patented, an original internal strutting system for reinforcing the top of the guitar. This gives his guitars distinctive and special sound characteristics. In 1949, Jose Yacopi and his wife, Pilar Perez-Menchaca, moved to General Villegas, then moving to San Fernando, Argentina in 1951, where Yacopi remained for the rest of his life. In 1961, together with his brother in law Agustin Perez-Menchaca, he established a guitar factory in San Fernando. Although he constructed various string instruments, he specialized in Spanish guitars. Among the recognized artists who have bought Yocopi's guitars are María Luisa Anido, Julian Bream, Atahualpa Yupanqui, Luis Miguel, Eric Clapton, Irma Costanzo, Eduardo Falú, Edmundo Rivero, and Narciso Yepes.

There are only two locomotives in the class, and they are numbered 161 and 162. Both direct current locomotives were procured by the Berninabahn (BB) in 1911 for piloting duties. The then still brown liveried machines were given the numbers Ge 2/2 61 and 62, and were equipped with Lyra pantographs. After the Rhaetian Railway takeover of the BB, they were given the new numbers they still bear. Today, they work mainly as shunting locomotives in Poschiavo. On the Appenzeller Bahnen (AB), there is another locomotive, Te 49, that is of similar appearance, and dates from 1912. Between 1955 and 1975, it operated as Ge 2/2 49.

Osney Mill
thumb|The derelict Osney Mill at the southern end of Mill Street, Oxford, with the entrance to the Osney Marina in the foreground. thumb|The exterior of the building with Osney Lock in the foreground, taken prior to its incorporation into a new housing development. Osney Mill is a former flour mill on a branch of the River Thames in Oxford, England, located south of the Botley Road, down Mill Street. While the mill was gutted by a fire in 1945 and remained derelict for over 60 years, the exterior walls were incorporated into a modern apartment building during the early-2010s that now occupies the site. Close by the site of the mill is Osney Lock. To the east is Osney Cemetery, to the west is Osney Island, while Oxford railway station lies just to the north. History The mill is on the site of the now-destroyed Osney Abbey. Little is left of the abbey, but there is still a rubble and timber-framed structure at the mill site, which may date from the 15th century. The remnants were Grade II listed in 1954. In 1895, William Henry Munsey came to Oxford after his farming business in Cambridgeshire was affected by foot and mouth disease. Initially, he worked for Pratt & Haines as a forage manager. In 1898, he went into partnership with Archer Cowley and took over Osney Mill. The partnership did not last and the business became W.H. Munsey Ltd in 1911. The mill produced flour for bread but was destroyed by fire in 1945. It was decided not to rebuild Osney Mill and the business moved to Wantage, south of Oxford, although the family still owns the site. In 2004, there were plans for a new development of homes, after planning approval by Oxford City Council. An Oxford building contractor, Knowles & Son, was contracted to turn the derelict mill building into flats. Work started on renovation in January 2011 and has now been completed.

Aviation Cadet Training Program (USAAF)
thumb|University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign aeronauts on 30 January 1918 The Flying/Aviation Cadet Pilot Training Program was originally created by the U.S. Army to train its pilots. Originally created in 1907 by the U.S. Army Signal Corps, it expanded as the Army's air assets increased. Requirements Candidates originally had to be between the ages of 19 and 25, athletic, and honest. Two years of college or three years of a scientific or technical education were required. This requirement was relaxed in January, 1942, after research on the qualifying exam showed that its scores were sufficiently predictive. Army Air Forces Cadets were supposed to be unmarried and pledged not to marry during training. From 1907 to 1920, pilot officers were considered part of the Signal Corps or the Signal Officer Reserve Corps. After 1920, they were considered part of their own separate organization, the U.S. Army Air Service (1918–1926). Locations The U.S. Army Air Corps Training Center (USAACTC) was at Duncan Field, San Antonio, Texas, from 1926 to 1931 and Randolph Field from 1931 to 1939. Two more centers were activated on 8 July 1940: the West Coast Army Air Corps Training Center (WCAACTC) in Sunnyvale, California, and the Southeast Army Air Corps Training Center (SAACTC) in Montgomery, Alabama. The SAACTC was later renamed the Gulf Coast Army Air Corps Center (GCAACTC). In 1942, the Army moved the WCAACTC from Moffett Field to Santa Ana Army Air Base (SAAAB), located on West 8th Street in Santa Ana, California. On 23 January 1942 the USAAF created the separate Air Corps Flying Training Command and the Air Corps Technical Training Command to control all aspects of technical and aviation training. Originally formed in Washington, D.C., they moved to facilities at Fort Worth, Texas, in July. They were renamed the Army Air Forces Flight Training Command and Army Air Forces Technical Training Command respectively in March, 1942. They were later unified as the Army Air Forces Training Command (July 1943 – June 1946). Aviation cadet centers Gulf Coast Army Air Corps Center (GCAACTC)– Randolph Field, San Antonio, Texas (1931–47). West Coast Army Air Corps Training Center (WCAACTC) – Moffett Field, Sunnyvale, California (1940–41). Santa Ana Army Air Base (SAAAB); Santa Ana, California (1942–1947). Southeast Army Air Corps Training Center (SAACTC) – Maxwell Field, Montgomery, Alabama (1940–47). From 1942, classification and pre-flight took place at Nashville AAC, Tennessee. When Captain Frank P. Lahm, the school's commander, couldn't find enough commissioned officer applicants, he trained Burge, who received his FAI pilot's license on 14 June 1912. Although the practice was officially condemned, the Army later relented, as Burge was already a trained aviator. The second was Corporal William A. Lamkey. Lamkey entered the Army Signal Corps in 1913, but had already received his FAI license from the Moisant Aviation School in 1912. Lamkey later left the Army to work as a mercenary pilot. The third pilot was Sergeant William C. Ocker. Ocker was denied pilot training because he was an enlisted man, so he became an aircraft mechanic instead. In his off hours he exchanged work for flight lessons from the nearby Curtiss Flying School. Eventually, he qualified for his FAI license on 20 April 1914, receiving certificate #293. Ocker did mostly test pilot work to accrue flight hours and tested many experimental or early prototype aircraft. He is famous for inventing "blind flying" training to teach pilots to fly by instruments in cloudy or dark conditions. World War I (1914–18) Only 29 enlisted pilots were created by 1914 and most were commissioned as second lieutenants in 1917. From 1914 to 1918, sixty mechanics were trained as pilots. They were used as ferry pilots and did not fly in combat. Their primary job was to transfer new and repaired aircraft from rear areas to air bases and forward air fields. They would then fly patched-up damaged aircraft back for more thorough repairs. The Army Air Corps Act of 1926 set certain standards as part of a five-year program to expand and improve the aviation arm of the U.S. Army. It set a quota that 20% of a tactical aviation unit's pilot billets must be manned by enlisted pilots by 1929. By 1930, only 4% of all pilots were enlisted. New pilots were usually commissioned to meet the need for pilot-rated officers in Air Corps administrative and command billets. Enlisted pilots didn't have a place in the hierarchy when they stopped flying and either reverted to their old pre-flying trade or were discharged. In 1933, the training and creation of enlisted pilots was discontinued due to budget cuts and lack of funds. World War II (1939–45) In 1939 there were only 55 enlisted pilots in the then-U.S. Army Air Corps (USAAC). On 3 June 1941, Public Law 99 was enacted, allowing enlisted men to apply to flight training. Candidates had to be between the ages of 18 and 22, have a high school diploma with at least 1.5 credit hours worth of math, and have graduated in the top half of their class. In November 1941, this was reduced to being at least 18 years old and possessing a high school diploma. After demand lifted in mid-1944, the requirements went back to college-educated or college graduate candidates. Enlisted pilots were called flying sergeants. Graduating enlisted pilots were graded as flight staff sergeants while pilots who graduated at the top of their class were graded as flight technical sergeants. They were usually assigned to flying transport and liaison aircraft. Their pilot status was only indicated by their pilot's wings, often leading to enlisted aviators being mistaken for air crew or harassed for impersonating a pilot. This caused a lot of bad feelings between the enlisted pilots (who had more dangerous jobs for lower pay and no privileges) and the officer pilots (who received the same pay, promotability, and privileges as officers). The first enlisted pilot cadets were part of class 42C (enrolling in November, 1941 and graduating on 7 March 1942), which trained at Kelly Field and Ellington Field, Texas. 93 enlisted graduates became P-38 fighter pilots and were assigned to the 82nd Fighter Group in North Africa. Members of this class shot down 130 enemy aircraft and nine became aces. The program created 2,576 enlisted pilots from 1941 to 1942. 332 enlisted pilots served overseas and 217 of them flew combat missions. Enlisted pilots destroyed 249.5 enemy aircraft and 18 became aces. Lt. William J. Sloan was the leading ace of the 12th Air Force with 12 victories. was passed on 8 July 1942 most enlisted pilots were promoted to the new rank of flight officer and newly-graduating enlisted pilots were graded as flight officers or second lieutenants depending on merit. Cadets were paid the same as Privates, but earned a 50% bonus for flight pay. In June 1918, the Air Service insignia of a winged single-prop propeller replaced the Signal Corps insignia. In 1925, they were allowed to wear the overseas cap and had branch of service piping of ultramarine blue with threads of golden orange. From 1928 to 1942, flying cadets wore a distinctive slate-blue uniform. Visor-cap insignia was a pair of gold wings (3 inches wide) and a silver propeller (2 inches high). Chevrons were 2.875-inches wide for jackets and shirts and 7-inches wide for overcoats. 1907–17 The U.S. Army Signal Corps Aviation School was first based at College Park, Maryland, from 1907 to 1912. It later moved in 1912 to Rockwell Field, North Island, San Diego, California. In 1912 the requirements and rank of Military Aviator were created for heavier-than-air aircraft pilots; the rank of Military Aeronaut was for lighter-than-air aircraft pilots. (Previous to this all American military pilots were certified by civilian aviation bodies). The first 24 certified pilots awarded this distinction (and the accompanying Signals Corps Military Aviator badge) were listed in War Department General Order No. 39 (27 May 1913). This was later split in 1914 into the ranks of Student Pilot (which granted a 25% increase in pay), Junior Military Aviator (for certified Enlisted Pilots and Lieutenants, granting a 50% increase in pay) and Military Aviator (for Captains and above; granting a 75% increase in pay but also requiring 3 years of flight experience). Junior Military Aviators who participated in regular and full-time flight would be paid at the next pay grade (e.g., Flight 2nd Lieutenants would be paid the same as a 1st Lieutenant). Reserve Military Aviators had a commission in the Army Reserves; this meant they had fewer billets, a slower career progression, and less job security than Regular Army pilots. 1917–18 To meet the increased demand for pilots, the Signal Corps Aviation School was shut down during World War I and its functions moved to other facilities. Rockwell Field was closed in 1920 and just used for storage. Student training was in three stages: Ground School was created on 12 May 1917. Students were taught the basics of flight, airplane operation and maintenance, meteorology, astronomy, military science, and officer etiquette. It lasted 8 weeks (extended to 12 in 1918) and took place at the U.S. Schools of Military Aeronautics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cornell University, University of Texas, University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, University of California at Berkeley, and Ohio State. Preliminary Flight School was next. This was taught at flight centers across the country. Facilities included Selfridge Field, Michigan; Chanute and Scott Fields, Illinois; Wilbur Wright Field, Ohio; Kelly, Taliaferro, Love, Call, Rich, and Ellington Fields Texas; Post Field, Fort Sill, Oklahoma; and Gerstner Field, Louisiana. Cadets had about 40–50 flight hours in Curtiss JN-4 Jenny biplanes: 4–10 hours of dual training, 24 hours of solo flying, and a 16-hour cross-country flight. Graduates were certified as Reserve Military Aviators in the Army Signal Corps. Advanced Flight Training took place in the United Kingdom, France, or Italy. Cadets were trained on their assigned aircraft for about 90 hours before being sent into combat in Europe. During World War I the rank of Junior Military Aviator was indicated by a US Shield with one wing. The rank of Military Aviator was indicated by a US shield flanked by a pair of wings. On 9 July 1918 the rank of Flying Cadet was created by act of Congress. 1919–21 Cadet training was in two stages. Preliminary Training was for four months (combining Ground and Preliminary Flight School) and was held at Carlstrom Field, Florida, or March Field, California. Advanced Training was for three months. It was held at Post, Kelly, or Ellington Fields. 1922–26 The Air Service consolidated all its training at San Antonio, Texas, in June 1922. This was to save money and provide good year-round flying conditions. Primary Training was extended to five months at Brooks Field. Advanced Training was extended to six months at Kelly Field. 1926–38 The Army Air Corps Act of 1926 set certain reforms as part of a five-year program to expand and improve the aviation arm of the Army. The U.S. Army Air Service would have its name changed to the U.S. Army Air Corps, to reflect its new role as a combatant military force. The post of "Assistant Secretary of War for Air" post was created to foster development of military aviation and an Aviation Section was added to each division of the Army General Staff. Around 90% of an aviation unit's officers had to receive pilot or observer rating and only flight-rated officers could command aviation units. The Air Corps Training Center was built at Duncan Field, near Kelly Field, in 1926. This was moved to Randolph Field on 1 October 1931. Primary and Basic Training were extended to eight months each and were held at the Air Corps Training Center. Advanced Training was reduced to four months and was held at Kelly Field. 1939–40 In 1938 the U.S. Army Air Corps was expanded to 24 groups by 1939. This required an influx of cadets to meet the requirements. There were three 12-week cycles (or about nine months total). Primary Flight Training was performed by contracted civilian flight schools. Basic Flight Training was performed at Randolph Field. Advanced Flight Training was done at Kelly Field and Brooks Field. Aviation Cadet Program (USAAF), 1940–47 1940–41 Cadet flight training was reduced in 1940 to seven months of training 1941–47 On 20 June 1941, the air arm of the U.S. Army previously known as the U.S. Army Air Corps (USAAC) became the "U.S. Army Air Forces" (USAAF). The grade of Aviation Cadet was created for pilot candidates and the program was renamed the Aviation Cadet Training Program (AvCad). Cadets were paid $75 a month ($50 base pay + $25 "flight pay") – the same rate as Army Air Corps privates with flight status – and a uniform allowance of $150. As junior officers, cadets were addressed as "Mister" by all ranks. The program was expanded in May 1942 to also cover training navigators and bombardiers and Moffett Field became the first center to give "pre-flight" training to them. Other specialties covered included communications, armament, meteorology, and radar operation; they were conventional Army warrant officers who attended an appropriate USAAF warrant officer school. From May 1942 to 1947, aviation cadets wore the same uniform as Army officers, except they lacked the mohair cuffband of a full officer. The service cap differed in that it had a blue hatband (with olive drab uniform) or brown hatband (with Khaki uniform) and the general issue eagle was replaced by the winged propeller insignia of the Army Air Forces. The garrison cap was worn with the Army Air Forces insignia on the left side. Rank stripes were light olive drab (brown) on a dark blue backing and were 3.125-inches wide on shirts and coats and 7.5-inches wide on overcoats. This created a problem because the new stripes were just being produced and the old stripes were becoming scarce. Therefore, in January 1943 the Army authorized training center commanders to procure commercially-made versions to meet demand. This led to non-standard designs (like dark blue or black chevrons on olive drab backings) and unique duty position insignias. The USAAF rank of flight officer was created by Public Law 658 (Flight Officer Act). Its insignia was similar to the warrant officer (junior grade) insignia except for the color of its enamel backing. It was in blue enamel for Air ratings (pilot, navigator, bombardier, flight engineer, or fire control officer – graduates of the aviation cadet program) and brown enamel for Ground ratings (radar operator, armorer, meteorologist, etc. – graduates of the USAAF's warrant officer schools). Air ratings were promotable to second lieutenant and ground ratings were promotable to chief warrant officer. Air ratings outranked ground ratings. The warrant officer's bars were worn horizontally on the shoulder straps of the shirt or jacket, like a lieutenant's or captain's bars. Co-pilot flight officers – an air rating – wore brown-enamel ground chief warrant officer insignia when flying. This was so they would not be confused with a pilot flight officer, the plane's commander. After the attack on Pearl Harbor and the United States' entry into the war, the number of volunteers for pilot training was enormous. Fearing that they would lose them to the general draft, aviation cadet-applicants were given exemption from 1942 until the demand lessened in July, 1944. Demand for pilots meant that training had to be modified to accommodate the large numbers of pilot candidates. Training came in four stages (extended to five stages in April 1942 with the creation of the pre-flight stage). Classification lasted one week and the education and training stages were nine weeks each. Each 9-week stage was divided into two 4.5-week (63-day) halves: a lower half and an upper half . The lower half was made up of students just beginning the stage and the upper half was made up of the students who were half-finished. The more experienced cadets would hopefully help the new cadets get through the section before they were promoted to the next stage. On-line Training was the term for busy work given to cadets when there were no open spaces in the next level. They did any unskilled menial task that needed doing until a billet opened up. Classification stage processed the cadet and issued him his equipment. This was the stage where it would be decided whether the cadet would train as a navigator, bombardier, or pilot. Candidates who failed the testing or the advanced physical were returned to the regular Army. Pre-flight stage was divided into two parts and was attended by pilots, navigators, and bombardiers. The first six weeks was a compressed "boot camp" that concentrated on athletics and military training. This was followed by four weeks of academics. They were taught the mechanics and physics of flight and required the cadets to pass refresher courses in mathematics and physics. Then the cadets were taught to apply their knowledge practically by teaching them aeronautics, deflection shooting, and thinking in three dimensions. Cadets were evaluated for 10 hours in a crude flight simulator called a "blue box", then performed a harrowing "ride-along" with a pilot-instructor for an hour. Those that passed were given Cadet Wings and were promoted to Pilot School. USAAF schools Pilot School Primary Pilot Training taught basic flight using two-seater training aircraft. This was usually done by contract schools (civilian pilot training schools) through the Civil Aeronautics Authority – War Training Service (CAA-WTS). Cadets got around 60 to 65 flight hours in Stearman, Ryan, or Fairchild primary trainers before going to Basic. Basic Pilot Training taught the cadets to fly in formation, fly by instruments or by aerial navigation, fly at night, and fly for long distances. Cadets got about 70 flight hours in BT-9 or BT-13 basic trainers before being promoted to Advanced Training. Advanced Pilot Training placed the graduates in two categories: single-engined and multi-engined. Single-engined pilots flew the AT-6 advanced trainer. Multi-engined pilots learned to fly the AT-9, AT-10, AT-11 or AT-17 advanced trainers. Cadets were supposed to get a total of about 75 to 80 flight hours before graduating and getting their pilot's wings. In 1960, the Air Force implemented the Undergraduate Pilot Training (UPT) and Undergraduate Navigator Training (UNT) concept. From now on the United States Air Force Academy (started in the fall semester of 1959), the Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corps, and the Air Force Officer Training School were to provide all of its pilots and navigators. Last Aviation Cadet pilot The last Aviation Cadet pilot classes were Webb AFB class 61G and Reese AFB class 62A. The last Aviation Cadet pilot to graduate was 2nd Lieutenant William F. Wesson, the only member of Reese AFB class 62B-2, on 11 October 1961. Wesson was originally a member of class 62A but was injured during a training accident and had to recover and requalify before he could graduate.

Honotua
Honotua is a submarine communications cable system that connects several islands of French Polynesia via Tahiti to Hawaii. The cable was laid by the cableship between December 2009 and June 2010. The international portion of cable contains a single fibre pair specified for 32x10 Gbit/s wavelength each, with initial lit capacity of 2x10 Gbit/s. The domestic system has 2 pairs of fibres specified for 8x10 Gbit/s each, with an initial lit capacity of 2x2.5 Gbit/s. It has cable landing points at: Vaitape, Bora Bora, French Polynesia Uturoa, Raiatea, French Polynesia Huahine, French Polynesia Moorea, French Polynesia Papenoo, Tahiti, French Polynesia Spencer Beach, Kawaihae, Hawaii, United States The operator of this cable is the (OPT). A monument commemorates the cable at its landing point in Tahiti. On it, an inscription reads: "In memory of the people of Papenoo and of Hawai‘i, who established ties in the past: Tapuhe‘euanu‘u from Tapahi, who, fishing from his canoe, caught Hawai‘i the Great, Te‘ura-vahine from Ha‘apaiano‘o, the goddess Pere, who sought refuge in the volcano of Hawai‘i the Great, Mo‘iteha, King of Hawai‘i, who came back to Tahiti to build his marae Ra‘iteha at Mou‘a‘uranuiatea, Ra‘amaitahiti, his son, King of Tapahi, who brought his drum to Kaua‘i, To revive these ancient connections, Honotua was made: The submarine cable that links Tahiti to Hawai‘i. After quietly undulating in the deep sea, it has landed here, at Mamu (silence). Hopefully human ignorance will dissolve into silence and only knowledge will be conveyed." The cable was later extended by the Manatua One Polynesia Fibre Cable to connect to the Cook Islands, Niue and Samoa.

Concrete pavement restoration
Concrete pavement restoration (CPR) together with concrete pavement preservation (CPP) is a group of various techniques used to maintain concrete roadways. Techniques CPP and CPR techniques include slab stabilization, full- and partial-depth repair, dowel bar retrofit, cross stitching longitudinal cracks or joints, diamond grinding and joint and crack resealing. CPP and CPR methods, developed over the last 40 years, are used in lieu of asphalt overlays and bituminous patches to repair roads when longer lasting solutions are desired. When installing pavers over top of an existing asphalt of concrete pad, there are three installation options: sand set, bituminous set, and mortar set. Due to rising oil prices, these methods are often less expensive than an asphalt overlay and last three times longer in addition to providing a greener, more sustainable solution. A recent study was conducted that shows that diamond grinding is an effective means of extending the service life of concrete by imparting a smooth pavement surface with desirable surface texture. The process can also be used to address faulting at joints or cracks, roughness, polished concrete surfaces exhibiting inadequate macrotexture, wheel path rutting, unacceptable noise levels, permanent upward slab warping and inadequate transverse slopes. The California Department of Transportation (CALTRANS), a pioneer in the use of diamond grinding to preserve their concrete roadways, has determined that the average age of a diamond ground surface in California is between 16 and 17 years, and a pavement can be diamond ground up to three times. Dowel bar retrofit (DBR) is a process that re-establishes load transfer capability on joints and cracks by installing epoxy-coated, round steel dowels into existing concrete pavement across transverse joints and/or cracks. Slots are cut using diamond-tipped saw blades; the existing concrete is removed and the dowels are placed in the slots across the joints or cracks. The slots are then backfilled with a non-shrink grout and the pavement is diamond ground to restore smoothness. The diamond grinding removes excess grout and any displacement of panels. The entire road is often diamond ground to remove bumps or dips and provide a safe, quiet riding surface. In Wisconsin, researchers found that the overall accident rate for diamond ground surfaces was only 60 percent of the rate for the non-ground surfaces.

This performance elevated him from No. 3 in the ICC Player Rankings to No. 2 rising above AB de Villiers. During the second Test, Root scored 88 off 141 balls however he threw away the opportunity to convert this into a century.

Root made 20 runs off 16 balls in the narrow 3 run win. For the third T20, Root was promoted to bat at number 3 with Alex Hales being rested and James Vince opening. Joe scored 32 runs off 22 balls to help England to a total of 154/8. Pakistan reached this total and took the match to a Super Over which England won. Root finished the series as a 3–0 winner and scored a total of 52 runs. Root was selected for the England squad on the 2015–16 tour to South Africa. This would be the first time Joe would face South Africa in a Test series. In the first warm up game, against an invitational XI, he scored 26 in the first innings and 37 in the second. In the second warm up game against the South African second team, he was much more prolific scoring 117 off 125 balls helping England to a total of 414-6d. In the first Test of the series, Root made 24 off 37 balls in the first innings before being trapped lbw to Dane Piedt. During the second innings he scored a 73 off 128 balls to help England to a total of 326 and a 241 run win, taking a lead in the series.

In the second Test, Root made 56 in the first innings as England built a first innings lead, but was out for just one in the second innings as England lost the game to draw the series 1–1. 20162017: India Root made 124 in England's first innings of the first Test against India as England made 537, though the match ended in a draw. For his performances in 2016, he was named in the World Test XI by the ICC. Root made scores of 90 not-out and 101 in the second and third ODIs of the away series against West Indies in March 2017, with England winning the series 3–0.Twin tons round off Root was named as part of the 'Team of the Tournament' at the 2017 Champions Trophy by the ICC, after he finished as the fourth highest run-scorer with England making the semi-final.Test captaincyRoot replaced Alastair Cook as the full-time Test captain on 13 February 2017 following the latter's resignation, making him England's 80th captain. In his first match as the captain, on 6 July 2017, against South Africa at Lord's, Root scored his 12th Test century with an innings of 190. He was the sixth (and highest scoring) England player to score a Test century on captaincy debut. He also had an influence on county teammate Gary Ballance's recall to the England squad. England won the match to set up a 3–1 series victory. A Test-series victory over West Indies followed, in the second Test of which Root equalled AB de Villiers' record of scoring a half-century in 12 consecutive Test matches. Ashes series: 2017–18 Root captained the English team in 2017–18 Ashes series in an unsuccessful defence of the Ashes, losing four of the five Tests. In Brisbane England batted first and scored 302 and 195, with Root's scores being 15 and 51. In the second Test at Adelaide Root's scored 9 and 67 out of totals of 227 and 233. In Perth, England scored 403 and 218, Root's scores 20 and 14, while Australia made 662/9 declared, winning the match and the series before tea on the final day. In the final match, he retired at 59 in the second innings after succumbing to gastroenteritis. He failed to convert any of his five half-centuries into centuries in the series. His next century did not come until 10 September 2018 against India at The Oval in the second innings, where Alastair Cook also scored a century on his final Test match.2018: Pakistan & India England drew 1–1 at home to Pakistan in a two-match series. England bounced back and beat India 4–1. Root failed to make a score in the first four Tests, but scored 125 in the last Test. This was his first century of 2018 after going without a century in the previous three Test series (Australia, New Zealand and Pakistan). This was also Root's last game with former captain Alistair Cook. Root impressed in the preceding ODI series against India, scoring 217 runs, which included two back-to-back centuries. Sri Lanka: 2018 Root became the first English captain to win a Test series in Sri Lanka since 2001, ending a run of 3 series in Sri Lanka without a win. He scored 124 in the 2nd Test to secure a series win; his first ever Test series away win as captain. This was also the first away Test series win England had won since 2016. 2019: Cricket World Cup In April 2019, he was named in England's squad for the 2019 Cricket World Cup. He had a good start to the tournament, scoring two centuries (against Pakistan and West Indies) and three fifties in England's first six matches. On 21 June 2019, in the match against Sri Lanka, Root played in his 250th international match for England. He was named in the 'Team of the Tournament' for the 2019 World Cup by the ICC. They stated that "England's run machine over the years, Joe Root was the glue that held their famed batting together through the tournament. The Yorkshire batter finished as the fifth highest run-scorer of the tournament, with 556 runs from 11 innings. Root's flawless technique and ability to keep the scoreboard moving by rotating the strike and finding the boundaries when required makes him a perfect No. 3 in this line-up".Ashes series: 2019 walk out to bat on the penultimate day of the 3rd Test at Headingley.]] Root captained England in the 2019 Ashes Series, as England and Australia drew 2–2 with Australia retaining the Ashes. Root's batting position was widely discussed in the build-up to the series, with Root eventually moving up the order to bat at three. Root made a half century in the first Test as Australia won by 251 runs, while the second Test at Lord's was drawn, with Root making 14 and 0. Steve Smith, who made twin hundreds in the first Test and was a thorn in England's side throughout the previous Ashes series, missed the third Test with a concussion. England capitalised by levelling the series courtesy of an incredible one wicket win at Headingley, with Ben Stokes making 135* in a record fourth innings chase for England, Joe Root scoring 0 and 77. Australia retained the Ashes with a 185 run victory at Old Trafford in the fourth Test, helped by a first innings double hundred from the returning Steve Smith, as Root made scores of 71 and 0. England restored some pride at the Oval with a 135 run victory to conclude the series, which was drawn 2–2. Root again made a half-century but failed to score a century in the series, leading to further criticism of Root's conversion rate. Root averaged just 32.50 throughout the series.2019–20: New Zealand & South AfricaIn December 2019, in the second Test match against New Zealand, Root scored his first double century as captain of England, and became the first visiting captain to score a double century in New Zealand in Test cricket. Root captained England to a 3–1 series victory in South Africa, which he described as his 'proudest result' as captain. England got off to a slow start, losing the first Test at Centurion, but came back to win the series comfortably. In the third Test he took career best bowling figures of 4-87 as England won on a turning Port Elizabeth pitch. Root had a consistent series with the bat, making three half-centuries, but was criticised once more for not converting his fifties into hundreds.2020: West Indies & PakistanIn order to be present for the birth of his second child, Root missed the first Test of the three match series against West Indies. England lost the match; Root returned to captain the side to a 2–1 series victory, with his most significant innings being a score of 68 not out to set up a declaration in the final Test. Root captained England to a second series win of the summer with a 1–0 win in the three Test series against Pakistan: England won the first Test followed by two rain-affected draws. In November 2020, Root was nominated for the Sir Garfield Sobers Award for ICC Male Cricketer of the Decade and the award for Test cricketer of the decade. 2021: Sri Lanka & India Root led England for the two match Test series against Sri Lanka, which was previously postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the first Test, Root scored 228, his 18th Test century and his first for 13 months. For his efforts (which led to England winning by 7 wickets), he was named Man of the Match. Root's run of form continued into the second, where, by scoring 186, he became the first Englishman since David Gower to pass 150 in consecutive Tests. During the innings he also overtook Geoffrey Boycott, Kevin Pietersen and Gower to become the fourth-highest Test run-scorer for England. On 29 June 2021, in the opening fixture against Sri Lanka, Root played in his 150th ODI match. In the same match, Root also scored his 6,000th run in ODI cricket, making him the fourth fastest player (in terms of innings) to reach 6000 runs. Later in the summer, Root continued his good form in Tests, with centuries in each of the first three games in the series against India seeing him return to the top of the ICC Test batting rankings. As a team England fared less well, trailing the series 2–1 when the final Test was postponed due to COVID-19.2021–22: Australia and West IndiesRoot's good form did not continue into the 2021–22 Ashes series; though he was the leading run-scorer for England, he only managed three fifties and a top score of 89, as England lost the series 4–0. The result saw the sacking of Chris Silverwood as head-coach of the England team, and calls for Root to step down as captain. However, he was retained for the away series against West Indies, scoring a second-innings century in the drawn First Test, taking his tally of 100s to 24, and clear second place on the list England Test centurions. On 4 January 2022, at the fourth Ashes Test in Sydney, he captained England for the 60th time taking the record for the most Test matches as England captain. On 15 April 2022, having captained England 64 times, Root resigned as Test captain stating: "It has been the most challenging decision I have had to make in my career but having discussed this with my family and those closest to me; I know the timing is right". Post-captaincy 2022–present In the second innings of the first Test match of the 2022 series against New Zealand, he scored 115*, which helped England chase down 277 runs. As a result of this performance, he was awarded the Man of the Match. In the second Test match of the series, he scored 176 runs in the first innings. In the third Test match, he scored 86* in England's second innings to help England chase down 296 runs. Throughout the series, he scored a total of 396 runs in six innings, at an average of 99, and was awarded the Player of the Series. During the rescheduled fifth Test against India, Root scored the winning runs with his unbeaten 142. He finished the series with over 700 runs in five Tests. On the third day of the first Test of the series against Pakistan at Multan in October 2024, Root overtook Sir Alastair Cook as England's highest Test run-scorer of all time, and move into fifth place on the list of highest run-scorers in Test history. This was part of his highest Test score to date of 262, his sixth double-century, and in the same innings he shared an England record stand of 454 with Harry Brook. This was also a record for any fourth-wicket partnership in Tests.International centuries {| class"wikitable" style"font-size:90%; float: right; clear: right; text-align:right; margin-left:15px" |+ Centuries against different nations ! scope="col" | Opponent ! scope="col" | Test ! scope="col" | ODI ! scope="cool"| T20I |- ! scope"row" style"text-align: left" | | — || 1 || — |- ! scope"row" style"text-align: left" | | 4 || — || — |- ! scope"row" style"text-align: left" | | — || 1 || — |- ! scope"row" style"text-align: left" | | 10 || 3 || — |- ! scope"row" style"text-align: left" | | 6 || 3 || — |- ! scope"row" style"text-align: left" | | 2 || 1 || — |- ! scope"row" style"text-align: left" | | 2 || 2 || — |- ! scope"row" style"text-align: left" | | 6 || 2 || — |- ! scope"row" style"text-align: left" | | 6 || 4 || — |- !scope"row" style"text-align: center" |Total | 36 || 17 || — |} Having scored 53 international centuries, Root currently is the eighth highest international century maker of all time.Awards*ICC Men's Test Cricketer of the Year: 2021 *ICC Test Team of the Year: 2014, 2015, 2016, 2021, 2023 *Wisden Cricketer of the Year: 2014 *ICC ODI Team of the Year: 2015, 2018 *England Test Cricketer of the Year: 2015 *England Limited-Overs Cricketer of the Year: 2015 *ICC Player of the Month: August (2021) * PCA Player of the Year: 2021 * Wisden Leading Cricketer in the World: April 2022ReferencesExternal links * [https://www.therootacademy.co.uk/ The Root Academy] * * [https://www.icc-cricket.com/rankings/mens/player-rankings/887 Joe Root] at ICC's official site * }} Category:1990 births Category:Living people Category:English cricketers Category:England Test cricket captains Category:England One Day International cricketers Category:England Twenty20 International cricketers Category:Yorkshire cricketers Category:Sydney Thunder cricketers Category:English expatriate cricketers in Australia Category:Cricketers from Sheffield Category:People from Dore Category:Wisden Cricketers of the Year Category:Cricketers at the 2015 Cricket World Cup Category:Cricketers at the 2019 Cricket World Cup Category:People educated at Worksop College Category:People educated at King Ecgbert School Category:Members of the Order of the British Empire Category:Trent Rockets cricketers Category:Wisden Leading Cricketers in the World Category:England Test cricketers Category:Rajasthan Royals cricketers Category:English expatriate cricketers in India Category:Cricketers at the 2023 Cricket World Cup Category:Paarl Royals cricketers

Onra
}} Arnaud Antoine Rene Bernard, better known by his stage name Onra, is a French hip hop beatmaker based in Paris. His musical style is a "chopped up set of RnB laden beats and electronically produced experiments laced with influences spanning the entire globe".Biography Arnaud Bernard was born in 1981 in Germany to French parents. His father is of Vietnamese descent. He moved with his family to France at the age of three. He discovered a passion for music at the age of ten and started making music at the age of nineteen. In 2000, he moved to Paris to pursue studies. He graduated from business school in 2006 with a degree in Marketing with the intention to create his own record label. The first album was made in collaboration with producer and friend Quetzal (Al Quetz) in 2006, Tribute, a project inspired by soul music. At the same time, he started collaborating with Byron the Aquarius, a keyboard player from Alabama; using the name Byron & Onra, the pair released the album The Big Payback on Japanese label Circulations in 2007. They also appeared on compilations such as Beat Dimensions and New Worlds by Jay Scarlett. In 2006, he went to Vietnam for the first time, and brought back over 30 Chinese and Vietnamese records from the 1960s and 1970s. He released the album Chinoiseries the following year, created using samples from these records; these were followed by Chinoiseries Pt. 2 in 2011 and Chinoiseries Pt. 3 in 2017. In 2008, he was selected to attend the Red Bull Music Academy in Barcelona and started touring around the world shortly after. In 2010, Onra released the LP Long Distance on All City Records, which features tracks with Olivier DaySoul, fellow French beatmaker Walter Mecca, and T3 from Slum Village, soul singer Reggie B and keyboard player Buddy Sativa. It received press coverage from outlets such as Pitchfork, which gave the album a rating of 8.0 out of 10, as well as Jay-Z's blog, LifeAndTimes. In 2011, Onra released Chinoiseries Pt.2 on All City Records, built on samples of Chinese music found in China, Thailand and Vietnam. In 2012, Onra released his newest EP Deep In The Night on Fool's Gold Records. Onra began a collaborative project with fellow French producer Buddy Sativa, which they called Yatha Butha Jazz Combo, eventually releasing an album of the same name in 2013. The album consists of 12 spiritual jazz tracks, mostly improvised; it was "created as a therapeutic break from their other constraining aliases, and not originally intended for public release." In 2015, Onra released a hip hop/R&B album Fundamentals, featuring different vocal guests such as Daz Dillinger, Black Milk and Do Or Die. Chinoiseries Pt. 3 was released in 2017 on All City Records.

He had relocated to Baton Rouge, Louisiana, by the early 1950s and, equipped with a Fender electric guitar, formed the Rhythm Ramblers, with Isaiah Chapman (lead guitar), Jimmy Dotson (drums), and Sylvester Buckley (harmonica). They stayed together for almost ten years and contributed to the development of the Baton Rouge blues sound, In 1962, when Hogan was 51, Slim Harpo introduced him to J. D. "Jay" Miller, a record producer based in Crowley, Louisiana. Miller, through the offices of Excello Records, started Hogan's recording career, at a time when interest in variations of swamp blues was waning. Several singles by Hogan were nevertheless released until 1965, when Miller's disagreement with the record label's new owners brought the recording contract to an abrupt end. On some of his recordings, Hogan was backed by the harmonica player Moses "Whispering" Smith. Hogan had to disband the group and returned to his full-time job at the Exxon oil refinery. In the late 1970s, he recorded additional tracks for Arhoolie and Blue Horizon.DiscographyAlbums{| class"wikitable" |- !Year !Title !Label |- |1971 |Trouble at Home |Blue Horizon |- |1972 |Trouble |Excello |- |1989 |''I'm a Free Hearted Man |Flyright |- |1995 |Trouble: Best of the Excello Masters |Excello/AVI Records |- |1995 |So Long Blues |Ace |- |1999 |The Godfather |Wolf Records |} Compilation albums {| class="wikitable" |- !Year !Title !Label !Song by Hogan |- |1976 |Gonna Head for Home'' |Flyright |"I'm a Free-Hearted Man" |- |1976 |Rooster Crowed for Day |Flyright |"My Baby Walked Out", "Tell Me Baby" |- |1999 |The Excello Story, Vol. 4: 1961–1975 |Hip-O Records |"Trouble at Home Blues" |- |2002 |Genuine Excello R&B |Ace |"Go On Pretty Baby" |} See also *List of Louisiana blues musicians *List of swamp blues musicians References External links * [http://www.wirz.de/music/hogan.htm Illustrated Silas Hogan discography] Category:1911 births Category:1994 deaths Category:American blues guitarists Category:American male guitarists Category:Blues musicians from Louisiana Category:American blues singers Category:Songwriters from Louisiana Category:Louisiana blues musicians Category:Swamp blues musicians Category:People from West Baton Rouge Parish, Louisiana Category:Musicians from Baton Rouge, Louisiana Category:20th-century American singers Category:20th-century American guitarists Category:Singers from Louisiana Category:Guitarists from Louisiana Category:Excello Records artists Category:20th-century American male singers Category:Arhoolie Records artists Category:American male songwriters Category:20th-century American songwriters

The Leprosy Mission
}} The Leprosy Mission is an international and inter-denominational Christian NGO, the largest and oldest organisation working in the fight against leprosy. Founded as the Mission to Lepers, it has the goal of zero leprosy transmission by 2035. As well as working towards zero leprosy transmission, The Leprosy Mission is committed to achieving zero disabilities as a consequence of leprosy and zero leprosy discrimination.  History In 2024, Leprosy Mission marked 150 years of fighting leprosy. Its beginning marked by from the time that Wellesley Bailey and his wife Alice began regular meetings in Dublin to tell friends about their experiences of people affected by leprosy in India, and to raise money'. Bailey, a Christian from Ireland, had been working as a teacher in the Punjab in India. During this time he had come across a row of huts inhabited by men and women with serious disabilities and physical deformities. His friend Dr Morrison, a leader of the American Presbyterian Mission in Ambala, explained that they were suffering from leprosy. Bailey was shocked by what he saw. Afterwards he wrote: <blockquote>"I almost shuddered, yet I was at the same time fascinated, and I felt that if there was ever a Christ-like work in the world it was to go amongst these poor sufferers and bring them the consolation of the gospel."<sup> </sup></blockquote>1874-1893 – The Baileys travel extensively in India to see the need of people affected by leprosy and to encourage support work and donations. 1891 – Wellesley Bailey visits Mandalay, Burma, to open the first MTL home for leprosy-affected people outside India.<sup>: 43 </sup> 1910s – The Mission has extended its work throughout India and the Far East and now has 87 programmes in 12 countries, with support offices in eight countries, including the auxiliary which would become Leprosy Mission Australia.<sup> .</sup> 1930s – MTL began to develop into a medical mission with the vision to help eradicate leprosy. In 1930 it was working in 100 centres across 15 nations, though most of their work was in India. 1940s – In South India, Paul Brand pioneers medical research and reconstructive surgery on leprosy deformities in hands and feet. 1940s-50s – The first effective cure for leprosy, Dapsone, is introduced. Over the next 15 years, millions of patients are successfully treated.<sup>: 95 </sup> 1950s – The Mission's work is extended into Africa.<sup>: 84 </sup> 1954 – World Leprosy Day is founded by Raoul Follereau, a French writer, to make sure that people everywhere know that leprosy still exists and is completely curable. It is held each year on the last Sunday in January. 1960s – Leprologists work to discover new drugs that are effective against leprosy as many people are discovered to have Dapsone-resistant leprosy. 1965 – The Mission changes its name from 'The Mission to Lepers' to 'The Leprosy Mission' to avoid the negative connotations of the word ‘leper,’ which is now understood to be a derogatory word'<sup>: 100 </sup> 1970s – TLM begins to extend its work to people's homes and communities, rather than just hospitals and asylums.<sup>: 107 </sup> 1980 – Vincent Barry and his team win the 1980 UNESCO Science Prize for their discovery of anti-leprosy drug clofazimine, developed with the assistance of The Leprosy Mission. 1981 – World Health Organization (WHO) recommends a new combination drug treatment for leprosy, MDT (Multi Drug Therapy). People are cured in as little as six months. 1990s – As many more people are cured, caring for people with lasting disabilities through social, economic, and physical rehabilitation becomes increasingly important. 2011 – The Leprosy Mission moves away from a centrally-directed regional structure and reformulates as a more decentralised Global Fellowship, the Members of which signed the TLM Charter (see below, under 'Where The Leprosy Mission works'). 2017 – An ambitious new goal is set: to see no new cases of leprosy by 2035. This goal was agreed upon by the Members of TLM's Global Fellowship. 2019 – A new global strategy is launched with three priorities: 1) Zero leprosy transmission by 2035; 2) Towards zero leprosy disability; 3) Towards zero leprosy discrimination 2024 – The Leprosy Mission celebrates its 150th anniversary and prepares to launch a new global strategy Areas of operation The Leprosy Mission works through a Global Fellowship, composed of Members and Affiliates from 28 different countries. The Global Fellowship came into being in 2011 when The Leprosy Mission Charter was signed. This charter committed all signees to: * A shared identity, vision, purpose, and values * Work together in mutual reliance * Actively add value to the total Fellowship and strengthen its effectiveness * Work with agreed accountability structures * Observe financial stewardship principles The Members of the Global Fellowship are split into countries that implement leprosy work and countries that support leprosy work through fundraising, while some countries do both. The Leprosy Mission's Global Fellowship is supported by an International Office in London, UK. This office operates as a central hub, providing leadership, coordination, facilitation, and operational services. National Committees are in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Eire, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Scotland, South Africa, Spain. The Leprosy Mission also works through partners in Sri Lanka and Indonesia. Activities Hospitals and healthcare The Leprosy Mission owns 14 hospitals in India, one in Bangladesh, and one in Nepal. These hospitals are centres of excellence that provide care to leprosy patients, as well as meeting the medical needs of the surrounding communities. The hospitals treat ulcers and leprosy reactions, providing counselling, mental health support, and health education. They also provide reconstructive surgery, physiotherapy, assistive devices, and special footwear. In 2022, 1,335 people underwent reconstructive surgery with The Leprosy Mission. There are mobile prosthetic units in Nigeria and Myanmar that provide medical care to those who have lost their limbs. All of this is designed to enable people affected by leprosy to live independent and productive lives. The Leprosy Mission supports a number of hospitals in Asia and Africa that are owned by the government or local church.  They also support leprosy control activities across many of the countries in which they work. Leprosy is a curable disease and if cases can be diagnosed and treated early enough, the disabilities associated with leprosy can be avoided.Training and education Leprosy is found predominantly in countries where poverty is widespread. To help prevent poverty amongst the leprosy community, The Leprosy Mission provides education to people affected by leprosy, offering formal education and literacy classes. For school-age children, The Leprosy Mission provides support to help them to stay in school and finish their school education. For adults, The Leprosy Mission offers vocational training, which includes, for example, training in mechanics, computers, agriculture, and printing. The Leprosy Mission runs training sessions to ensure that general health care workers can recognise early symptoms of leprosy, treat it with Multi-Drug Therapy, and reduce the risk that the disease spreads to others. There is also leprosy awareness training for the communities with leprosy through which the people learn about the early symptoms of leprosy and understand the importance of seeking out free Multi-Drug Therapy.Community based rehabilitation People affected by leprosy are often ostracised by their communities, which prevents them from being able to participate in the economic, social, and political life of the society in which they live. To tackle this issue, The Leprosy Mission supports community-based rehabilitation programmes across Asia and Africa. This work includes promoting inclusive development, skills training, micro-finance, self-help groups, low-cost housing, self-care groups, and supporting Disabled People's Organisations.Advocacy The Leprosy Mission works alongside persons affected by leprosy so that they can advocate for their rights and reduce the physical and social barriers they face. The Mission provides advocacy training for people affected by leprosy so that they can self-advocate. This training ensures that people affected by leprosy know their rights and have the self-confidence to lobby for change at the local and national governmental levels. The Leprosy Mission has been working with the United Nations to ensure that governments are under pressure to protect the rights of people affected by leprosy. This advocacy is based on the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UNCRPD). At the national level, The Leprosy Mission works with national governments to ensure that leprosy receives the appropriate time, attention, and resources. The Leprosy Mission has also been focused on repealing all laws that explicitly discriminate against people affected by leprosy across the world.Research The Leprosy Mission conducts research into leprosy that can help to answer many unanswered questions. This includes work to prevent the spread of leprosy, to prevent and treat leprosy reaction, and to understand why some people encounter severe nerve damage despite good treatment. Around 70% of people affected by leprosy may struggle with mental illness (anxiety or depression), so The Leprosy Mission also works to understand the link between leprosy and inner wellbeing, The research is conducted in the Mycobacterial Research Laboratory in Anandaban Hospital, Nepal, at the Rural Health Programme, Nilphamari, Bangladesh, at the Stanley Browne Laboratory in New Delhi, India, and through TLM’s field projects across Asia and Africa.Strategy and goalsThe Leprosy Mission will continue to reduce the number of new leprosy cases, working toward zero cases by 2035. TLM will further seek ways to understand and reduce leprosy transmission through its extensive research operations. They hope to learn more about giving an early diagnosis, monitoring relapse, and anti-microbial resistance. The Leprosy Mission will also use new technology to support primary and secondary healthcare workers. TLM partners with governments and other leprosy NGOs to conduct active case findings, implement contact tracing alongside the distribution of a post-exposure prophylactic, and raise awareness within targeted communities.

Julius Julianus
Julius Julianus ( 315–325) was a Roman politician, the grandfather and namesake of the future emperor Julian. Life He served Licinius as praetorian prefect from at least spring 315 to September 324, until Constantine I definitively defeated Licinius. However, the fall of Licinius did not mark the end of Julianus' career, as Constantine had praised Julianus' administration of the State and chose him, in 325, as suffect to replace a consul fallen in disgrace, Valerius Proculus. He also served as Praefectus Aegypti in 328. He was the father of Basilina, wife of Constantine's half-brother Julius Constantius and mother of Emperor Julian, and of the mother of Procopius; he was probably related to Eusebius of Nicomedia. Julianus was the master of the Gothic philosopher slave Mardonius, who was the teacher of both Basilina and Julian.

Annapolis Park Historic District
| locmapin = Michigan#USA | built = 1953 | architect | architecture Modern Movement | added = May 18, 2006 | area = | refnum 06000405 }} The Annapolis Park Historic District is a historic district located along Julius, Matthew, Hanover, Farnum, Alan, and Paul Streets in Westland, Michigan, covering and 354 buildings. However, blacks were restricted in where they could live due to housing covenants, overpriced rent, and other forms of discrimination. A fourth Annapolis Park platting, in 1961, is not included in the Historic District. When local banks proved reluctant to provide mortgages to prospective home owners, the Schwartzes also established the Franklin Mortgage Company to make loans to residents.<ref name = "state"/> Annapolis Park was quickly successful, with the first two houses constructed in 1953, 134 more built in 1954, 168 more during 1955, and 51 houses built in 1956–57, completely filling the subdivision. It is likely that a substantial percentage of the original homeowners were World War II veterans who used the mortgage guarantee provisions of the GI Bill to purchase their house. Sales were apparently mostly by word of mouth, but the availability of adequate financing and the efforts of part-time salesmen Jimmy Nelms (the first African American male school teacher in the Wayne school system) Levi Jackson (a former Yale football captain) boosted sales.<ref name = "nom"/> Annapolis Park residents formed the Southeast Homeowners Association (now the Southeast Westland Homeowners Association) in 1955 to promote community unity. In 1966, the city of Westland was incorporated from the remainder of the former Nankin Township, and Annapolis Park was included. Today's Annapolis Park is an attractive, well-cared-for neighborhood, which includes many descendants of the first homeowners.<ref name "nom"/>DescriptionAnnapolis Park contains 354 houses situated along a series of curved streets. The houses are ranch houses, primarily with brick exteriors, and all constructed in 1953–57. Lots are roughly 50–60 feet wide and 110–140 feet deep, and typically slightly irregular due to the curved streets. Although the houses are of uniform size and placement, the curving streets and variations in rooflines gives a pleasing visual character to the neighborhood. The streets are paved, with parallel sidewalks and a grass berm between. During the original construction, maples were planted on the berm at each lot; substantial numbers survive. The entire neighborhood is located on a roughly L-shaped, nearly level site, and is surrounded by similar residential subdivisions, some constructed around the same time and some of more modern vintage.<ref name "nom"/> The district contains a single brick bungalow, at the southwest comer of Middlebelt and Hanover, that was constructed before the neighborhood was platted. The remainder of the district consists of one-story two or three-bedroom ranch houses, either hopped roof or side gabled. A small percentage of the neighborhood, primarily the first houses built, are clad with siding, but the vast majority are brick. Brick veneers are typically of red brick, but orange-red, buff, and grayish brick were also used. Stone veneer or brick of a different hue is incorporated in many houses on the front above window-sill level and in decorative panels. Most houses have detached garages located at the back end of the lot.<ref name = "nom"/> <gallery modepacked-hover caption"Street scenes"> File:Annapolis Park B.jpg|Looking north on Julius File:Annapolis Park C.jpg|Looking south on Julius </gallery> References Category:Houses on the National Register of Historic Places in Michigan Category:Historic districts in Wayne County, Michigan Category:Houses in Wayne County, Michigan Category:Historic districts on the National Register of Historic Places in Michigan Category:National Register of Historic Places in Wayne County, Michigan
