Urera is a genus of flowering plants in the nettle family, Urticaceae. It has a pantropical distribution.

# Urera
***Urera*** is a genus of flowering plants in the nettle family, Urticaceae. It has a pantropical distribution.
## Description
*Urera* are lianas, shrubs, and small trees. Climbing species root along the stems and can reach the crowns of the trees they use for support. Some are spiny. They almost always have urticating hairs, often on bumps in the epidermis. These are stiff, stinging trichomes with swollen bases. The leaves are variable in shape and venation, and help in the identification of species. Also useful is the varying appearance and arrangement of cystoliths on the leaf surface. The inflorescence is a divided, branching panicle of flowers. Most species are dioecious, but a few are monoecious. Most species have male flowers with either four or five stamens and tepals. Female flowers generally have four uneven, free to mostly fused tepals. The fruit is an achene covered in orange or red flesh.
## Systematics and taxonomy
The genus *Urera* was first described by Charles Gaudichaud-Beaupré in 1826 in his review of the studies done on Louis de Freycinet's voyage of the *Uranie*. He noted its distinctness, proposing the subtribe Urereae. This was later raised to the rank of tribe, and subsequently merged into Urticeae.
No botanical monographs have been devoted to *Urera* since 1869. Knowledge of the systematics of the genus has accumulated mainly from new descriptions of species and floristic accounts.
About 113 species epithets have been published for the genus. Plants of the World Online currently accepts 28 species. Many species have been transferred to other genera, including *Boehmeria*, *Dendrocnide*, *Girardinia*, *Gyrotaenia*, *Laportea*, *Obetia*, and *Scepocarpus*. Other estimates for the number of valid species in *Urera* range up to 75. The genus is not well known, with current knowledge dependent mainly on outdated studies, and there is little agreement regarding its taxonomy.
Analysis of *trnL-F* chloroplast DNA sequence data suggests that *Urera* could be sister to *Poikilospermum* within the Urticaceae.

# Friendville (manor house)
**Friendville** is a large manor house and estate in the Mannofield area of Aberdeen, Scotland, operated as a hireable exclusive use venue. It is notable for being situated in the city of Aberdeen itself yet containing an estate and gardens that are more commonly found in rural country houses. Friendville house is a category B listed building and the oldest residential property still in use in Aberdeen. It is one of Aberdeen's most valuable properties.
## History
Friendville was built for Robert Balmanno in 1773 in the area of land known at the time as Balmanno's Field which was acquired a year early by Balmanno from the Rubislaw Estate and cultivated as farmland. Friendville was built at the edge of this land as a private residence for Balmanno where he stayed until 1798, when the house was purchased by Arthur Dingwall Fordyce.
In the period between 1798 and 1952 Friendville changed hands a number of times but always remained a residential property, during this time large areas of the house were neglected and were allowed to deteriorate, particularly the grounds and the gardens of Friendville which became an eyesore in the affluent Mannofield neighborhood. In 1943 the estate was purchased by William Bell a well known antiques dealer in Aberdeen who undertook a project to restore Friendville.
Under the guidance of architect Fenton Wynness, the house and grounds were renovated in an attempt to bring the house back to its original standard whilst maintaining the Georgian architecture and Victorian interior.
## Architecture
Friendville house was built in the late 18th century before the mass expansion of the oil industry when Aberdeen was still sparsely populated and land was vast and relatively easily obtainable, as such Friendville was built as a country manor and the city of Aberdeen grew around it, particularly in the early 20th century as the oil industry grew to prominence.
The architectural style of Friendville reflects the freedom of the countryside, the house is built with eloquent Georgian masonry and the 2 acres of garden inside the grounds of Friendville are segregated as was common in the Victorian era. The interior also reflects Victorian design, containing wooden beams and a feature wooden staircase in the main hall.
## Present day
Today, Friendville operates as a commercial venue available for private hire. It is operated by Oakhill Apartments.

Beta-nitropropionic acid
|
β-Nitropropionic acid is a mycotoxin, a potent mitochondrial inhibitor, which is toxic to humans. It is produced by a number of fungi, and may be found widely in food such as in sugar cane as well as Japanese fungally fermented staples, including miso, soy sauce, katsuobushi, coconuts and some traditional Chinese medicines. It can be caused by extreme weather, stressed crop growth conditions, as well as storage conditions, which can give a further rise under global warming conditions.
Fungi of the genus Arthrinium are known to produce 3-nitropropanoic acid. It is found that 3-nitropropionic acid is a mitochondrial toxin and produces striatal alterations in rats similar to those observed in the brain of Huntington's disease patients, and administration of the cannabinoid receptor agonist WIN55212-2 to rats for six consecutive days, before the 3-NPA injection, exerted preventive effects on all alterations elicited by the toxin, like mitochondrial dysfunction and lipid peroxidation, by activation of the CB1 receptor.

# False Memories
**"False Memories"** is a story arc that ran through *Buffy the Vampire Slayer* #35–38 based on the *Buffy the Vampire Slayer* television series. The arc was later collected into a trade paperback edition.
## Story description
### General synopsis
"Remember that time when Buffy's little sister Dawn first found out that Buffy is the Slayer? And then when Angel almost killed Dawn, because no one had told her that he'd turned evil again?"
Buffy and her friends all have memories about Dawn Summers, yet only Buffy and Giles have discovered those memories are not real. Buffy and Giles are still lacking real answers about those memories. Meanwhile, Dawn vanishes without a trace, and the Scoobies have no idea where she is. Buffy will stop at nothing to find Dawn.
### *Buffy the Vampire Slayer #35*
Comic title: *Remember The Beginning*
Dawn has fourteen years of memories including the time she first discovered Buffy was the Slayer, the time when Angel tried to kill her, and so on. Only Buffy and Giles are aware that such memories are not real. Dawn is linked to other secrets from the past, namely a previous slayer who is still the victim of a curse.
### *Buffy the Vampire Slayer #36*
Comic title: *Remember The Lies*
Dawn has vanished without a trace and the Scooby gang has no clue where to find her.
As the Scooby gang try to find Dawn, Buffy causes chaos in the town during her search. Spike thinks that Dawn's disappearance might be linked to the former Slayer turned vampire, Yuki Makumura. A battle between Vampire Slayer and Slayer Vampire maybe approaching.
### *Buffy the Vampire Slayer #37*
Comic title: *Remember The Truth*
Buffy is looking for clues related to her sister, and Harmony thinks up another plan to cause trouble and she distracts people from the search for Dawn. Meanwhile, crazy vampire monks who know about Dawn's past are holding her captive. Also, the Slayer-Vampire is on Buffy's case.
### *Buffy the Vampire Slayer #38*
Comic title: *Remember The End*
Buffy and her friends face off against the Buddhist vampire-monks who had kidnapped Dawn. The monks know all about Dawn. Buffy must handle new information and face a fight with a Slayer-Vampire.
## Continuity
* Supposedly set in *Buffy* season 5, the story arc contains various flashbacks to previous events from Dawn's perspective.
* The arc takes place after *Haunted*, and before *Willow & Tara*.
### Canonical issues
*Buffy* comics such as this one are not usually considered by fans as canonical. However, unlike fan fiction, overviews summarizing their story, written early in the writing process, were 'approved' by both Fox and Joss Whedon (or his office), and the books were therefore later published as officially Buffy merchandise.

# Mim Bour
**Mim Bour** or Mim Rocky-Mountains are located 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) to the west of Mim in Asunafo North Municipal District of Ahafo region, Ghana.
## Geography
Mim Bour consists of a group of three peaks rising from otherwise undulating countryside.The mountains are located about 390 kilometres (240 mi) northwest of Accra and 140 kilometres (87 mi) west of Kumasi. The area around the mountains has been partially developed into a tourist site.
The site is served by an airstrip located east of the mountains.
According to oral tradition, the tallest of the Mim Bour mountains is the father while the other two are mother and child.
## The male mountain
The male mountain, at 6°55′12″N 2°37′16″W / 6.919916°N 2.621084°W / 6.919916; -2.621084, is very steep in nature, and rises to a little over 400 metres (1,300 ft). According to oral tradition, only the first chief of Mim has been able to climb to the summit, and he achieved this by some supernatural powers. Historical account states that, the Paramount Chief used to climb this steep mountain whenever he wanted to address his subjects or spy on enemy incursions. It is said that at the summit, he was able to see all the areas under his traditional authority and even as far as Sunyani, Dormaa Ahenkro, Techiman, and Kumasi.
## The female mountain
The female mountain, at 6°54′47″N 2°37′43″W / 6.9131°N 2.6286°W / 6.9131; -2.6286, is the biggest of the three mountains by Area.It measures about one km<sup>2</sup> (0.39 sq mi) and rises to about 360 metres (1,180 ft). There is a staircase running to the summit of this mountain.
The female mountain has some interesting natural formations and beautiful scenery. At the summit, there is a reception centre, swimming pool, gardens, and orchard. The top of the mountain gives panoramic views of the nearby airstrip, cashew plantation, and surrounding forests.
Tourists who visit Mim Bour also often visit Mim Lake, an artificial lake which is about one km (0.62 mi) away from the Mim Senior High School. There is one hotel and guesthouses in Mim which accommodate tourists.
## Transport

Mobile Communication and Society: A Global Perspective is a book by Manuel Castells, Mireia Fernandez-Ardevol, Jack Linchuan Qui, and Araba Sey published by The MIT Press that looks at the impact of mobile phone technology. It argues: "Wireless networks are the fastest growing communications technology in history. Are mobile phones expressions of identity, fashionable gadgets, tools for life -- or all of the above? 'Mobile Communications and Society' looks at how the possibility of multimodal communications from anywhere to anywhere at any time affects everyday life at home, at work, and at school, and raises broader concerns about politics and culture both global and local." This book says its data was "gathered from around the world" and authors take a look at "who has access to wireless technology, and why, and analyze the patterns of social differential seen in unequal access." It touches issues in countries and continent as diverse as the United States, China, Europe, Latin America and Africa. Its chapters are: Opening: Our Networks, Our Lives
The Diffusion of Wireless Communications in the World
The Social Differentiation of Wireless Communication Users: Age, Gender, Ethnicity, and Socioeconomic Status
Communication and Mobility in Everyday Life
The Mobile Youth Culture
The Space of Flows, Timeless Time, and Mobile Networks

# Don Joseph Pear
**Don Joseph Pear** is an Italian fairy tale collected by Thomas Frederick Crane in his *Italian Popular Tales*.
It is Aarne-Thompson type 545B.
## Synopsis
Three brothers owned a pear tree and lived on the pears. One day, all the pears were stolen, and the brothers decided to watch it during the night. The older two fell asleep on their turns, but the youngest, Don Joseph, stayed awake, and when a fox came to steal, threatened to shoot him. The fox promised that if he let him go, he would marry the king's daughter. He did not believe it, but let the fox go.
Twice, the fox hunted all manner of game and presented it to the king, as a gift from Don Joseph Pear. He then went to an ogress and convinced her it was time to divide the gold and silver. He went to the king to get a measure for Don Joseph Pear to divide the gold and silver, which convinced the king that Don Joseph was rich.
The fox then dressed Don Joseph well and set him off to travel with the king and his daughter. He the fox went ahead and when peasants threw rocks at him, threatened to have them killed if they did not describe the land and flocks as Don Joseph's. Then he got to the ogress's castle, told her the horsemen were coming to kill them, and suggested they hide in the well. He threw her in, killing her.
One day, Don Joseph threw dust into the fox's eyes, and the fox threatened to tell what he knew. So Don Joseph threw a jar and killed the fox, but he still lived happily ever after.

# Dao Look Gai (Thai Folk Tale)
**Dao Look Gai** or **Dao Luk Gai**, also known as the **Chick Stars** or **Pleiades (M45)**, is a Thai folk tale from Surin province, in northeastern Thailand. It is a fable that explains why Pleiades is called Dao Look Gai (Thai: *Dao* 'star'; *Look Gai* or *Luk Gai* 'chick') and why it has 7 stars in the sky.
This fable is popular in central, northern and northeastern Thailand. It is still told, due to the fact that many Thai artists created a song that related to it. This song is often played with Thai instruments for special events, ceremonies or lessons for kids or students.
## Story
Once upon a time, at a forest edge, there was an old couple who lived in a small cottage. They had no children. The only thing they had was a hen that had seven tiny chicks. Every day the old man and old women went out to the forest to get some lumbers, wild fruits and wild vegetables. They had to get up early to feed the hen and seven chicks. Even though sometimes they did not have much food to feed them, the hen did not mind then took her children to find something to eat by herself.
One day, there was a monk came to the forest and stayed under the big tree near the old couple's cottage temporarily. The old man and old woman wanted to show their respect by giving the monk some food. Unfortunately they did not have much vegetable or fruit to cook for him at that time. The only thing they had was the hen so they decided to kill it in the morning next day.
While the old couple was talking, the hen accidentally heard all the conversation they talked to each other. The hen was so depressed, however she did not think to escape and went back to the stable to see her children. The hen told everything she heard from the old couple to seven chicks then they held each other and cried a lot. The little chicks told her mother to leave this place together but she refused. The hen said the old couple took good care of her since she was a tiny chick and now it was time to repay them. The hen said goodbye to the seven chicks. She held them closely and spent time with them for the last night.
Next morning, the old man came to the stable and caught the hen while the old women prepared to cook it. When she made the fire ready, the old man put the hen in the hot pot. The hen screamed loudly because of the pain she got before she died. The seven chicks heard their mother's voice then they came to see her immediately. When they saw their mother's body, their hearts were broken, then looked at each other and threw themselves in the fire to join their mother.
## Moral
The moral of this story is "To be grateful to someone who take good care of you" like the hen who never thinks to escape from the old couple even if she knew that they will come to kill her soon. Another one is "the love" - the love of the hen to the old couple and her seven chicks and the love of the seven chicks to their mother.

Christ and the woman taken in adultery (Polenov)
|
Christ and the woman taken in adultery (Russian: «Христо́с и гре́шница» is a large-format painting by Russian artist Vasily Polenov, dated 1888. The painting is held in the State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg. Measuring 325 × 611 cm, it depicts the story of Jesus and the woman taken in adultery, described in the Gospel of John. The painting was conceived by the artist in the late 1860s, with the first sketches appearing in the early 1870s. Some fifteen years passed before the final version of the canvas was completed. While working on the painting, Polenov travelled to the Middle East and Italy. The canvas was presented at the 15th Exhibition of the Society for Travelling Art Exhibitions, which opened in St. Petersburg on 25 February 1887. At the exhibition, the painting was purchased by Emperor Alexander III. The painting was then kept in the Winter Palace, and when the Russian Museum was founded, it became part of its collection in 1897. On the one hand, the painting Christ and the Sinner is seen as an attempt at a realistic interpretation of the image of Christ and the Gospel story. On the other hand, art historians have also identified the influence of late academicism on the painting, noting that among the attempts to revive large-format academic historical painting, "Polenov's painting is the most significant and serious".

# Christ and the woman taken in adultery (Polenov)
***Christ and the woman taken in adultery (He that is without sin?)*** (Russian: «Христо́с и гре́шница» («Кто без греха́?») is a large-format painting by Russian artist Vasily Polenov (1844-1927), dated 1888. The painting is held in the State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg (Inventory Zh-4204). Measuring 325 × 611 cm, it depicts the story of Jesus and the woman taken in adultery, described in the Gospel of John.
The painting was conceived by the artist in the late 1860s, with the first sketches appearing in the early 1870s. Some fifteen years passed before the final version of the canvas was completed. While working on the painting, Polenov travelled to the Middle East (1881-1882) and Italy (1883-1884).
The canvas was presented at the 15th Exhibition of the Society for Travelling Art Exhibitions (*Peredvizhniki*), which opened in St. Petersburg on 25 February 1887. At the exhibition, the painting was purchased by Emperor Alexander III. The painting was then kept in the Winter Palace, and when the Russian Museum was founded, it became part of its collection in 1897.
On the one hand, the painting Christ and the Sinner is seen as an attempt at a realistic interpretation of the image of Christ and the Gospel story. On the other hand, art historians have also identified the influence of late academicism on the painting, noting that among the attempts to revive large-format academic historical painting, "Polenov's painting is the most significant and serious".
## History
### Conception and work on the painting
The concept for the future canvas, entitled *Christ and the woman taken in adultery*, was first conceived in 1868, influenced by Alexander Ivanov's painting, *The Appearance of Christ before the People*. Polenov set himself the task of creating "Christ not only coming, but already in the world, making his way among the people." The book *The Life of Jesus* by the French philosopher and writer Ernest Renan, which emphasised the human nature of Christ, had a significant influence on the interpretation of the subject. By the time work on the painting began, Russian painting had already produced such famous canvases on Gospel themes as Last Supper by Nikolai Ge and Christ in the Desert by Ivan Kramskoi.
The initial sketches and studies for the future painting *Christ and the woman taken in adultery* were created in the 1870s. Of these, two are particularly noteworthy - the 1873 sketch, which aligns with the original concept of the painting, and the 1876 sketch, which is closer to the final composition of the canvas. After that, work on the painting came to a standstill, but in 1881, when the artist's sister Vera Dmitrievna Polenova (the twin of Vasily Polenov) was dying, she made her brother promise to resume work on the painting and also asked that the canvas be large. By then, Polenov had become quite successful in the genre of landscape painting, but, fulfilling the promise to his sister, the artist returned to historical painting.
In 1881-1882, Vasily Polenov undertook a journey to the Middle East, which was largely associated with the work on the painting *Christ and the woman taken in adultery*. He travelled to Constantinople, Alexandria, Cairo, Aswan, visited Palestine and Syria, and also stopped by Greece. Polenov's travelling companions were linguist and archaeologist Semyon Abamelek-Lazarev and art historian Adrian Prakhov. The trip provided Polenov with a substantial corpus of observations pertaining to the nature and architecture of Palestine, as well as the appearance and customs of its population. The artist subsequently employed these techniques to achieve greater realism in his depictions of the Gospel narrative. However, the outcomes of the journey did not significantly advance Polenov's progress towards the realization of his intended painting, *Christ and the woman taken in adultery*, as he devoted minimal time to making sketches and studies during the expedition.
In the spring of 1883, already a teacher at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, Polenov finally began work on a large painting. However, it became evident that the material collected during his trip to the Middle East was insufficient for the task at hand. While he had landscape sketches and architectural sketches, he lacked sufficient images of people. To address this deficiency, Polenov took a year's leave from his academic position and, accompanied by his wife, Natalia Vasilyevna, departed for Rome at the end of October 1883. Their itinerary included visits to Vienna, Venice, and Florence. Consequently, in the 1883-1884 period, Polenov continued his work on the painting in Rome. He proceeded to refine the sketches and also created images of Italian Jews. In a letter to his sister Elena Dmitrievna, Natalia Vasilievna described the Roman period of Polenov's activity: "He works very much, but whether he is successful or not is again terribly difficult to say; it seems to me that he looks for too much and *too little* in his work, and it is terribly tiring." She reported that Polenov wrote one or two sketches from nature every day, and said that she "would be calmer at heart if the sketches were half as many and more in content." In April 1884, Polenov was visited in Rome by the businessman and patron Savva Mamontov, with whom the artist was well acquainted from the Abramtsevsky Circle. According to Natalia Vasilyevna, "Savva treated his work very kindly and examined his sketches sincerely and not empty-handedly", which "gave Vasily new zeal."
In May 1884, the Polenovs returned to Russia from Italy. In the summer of 1885, the artist worked at the Menshovo estate near Podolsk, where he created a full-length sketch of the painting *Christ and the woman taken in adultery*, executed in charcoal on canvas. The final version of the painting was completed by Polenov in 1886-1887 in Savva Mamontov's study within his residence on Sadovaya-Spasskaya Street in Moscow. In addition to his immediate family and Savva Mamontov, Polenov consulted with the artists Konstantin Korovin and Viktor Vasnetsov, as well as physiologist Pyotr Spiro, during the painting process.
### 15th Travelling Exhibition
It was anticipated that the painting *Christ and the woman taken in adultery* would be exhibited at the 15th exhibition of the Society for Travelling Art Exhibitions (*Peredvizhniki*), which commenced in St. Petersburg on 25 February 1887. Polenov departed for St Petersburg in advance, in mid-February, and his canvas arrived a few days after the artist. Upon its installation in the exhibition hall, it was discovered that another large-format painting on a historical subject, *Boyarina Morozova* by Vasily Surikov, would be exhibited at the exhibition.
A few days before the exhibition opened, the paintings were examined by censor Nikitin. Apparently, this was Nikolai Vasilyevich Nikitin, an Active State Councillor, who served as the chief inspector of printers, lithographers and similar establishments in St Petersburg. In any case, Nikitin was reluctant to grant permission for Polenov's painting to be included in the exhibition and reported the matter to the St Petersburg town governor Pyotr Gresser. The latter dispatched an official with special orders, who permitted the painting to remain until the inspection of the paintings by members of the royal family, including the president of the Academy of Arts, Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandrovich, and Emperor Alexander III himself.
Shortly afterwards, Vladimir Alexandrovich visited the exhibition. He conducted a meticulous examination of the painting by Polenov (the artist himself was not present at the exhibition at that moment), expressed concern about the inadequate lighting, and concluded that "for educated people the painting is interesting for its historical character, but for the crowd it is very dangerous and can provoke all sorts of talk." Nevertheless, the painting remained on display until the emperor's visit to the exhibition.
On the morning of the day when Alexander III was expected to arrive, the exhibition was inspected by Konstantin Pobedonostsev, the Ober-Procurator of the Most Holy Synod, who was accompanied by the town governor Peter Gresser. Ignoring the other paintings, the pair proceeded directly to the painting *Christ and the woman taken in adultery.* Describing the painting as serious and interesting, Pobedonostsev nevertheless forbade the printing of the exhibition catalogue. At two o'clock in the afternoon, Vladimir Alexandrovich arrived at the exhibition. Alexander III and his wife Maria Feodorovna arrived twenty minutes later, accompanied by the Grand Dukes George Alexandrovich and Konstantin Konstantinovich. Alexander III expressed his appreciation for the exhibition and proceeded to purchase several paintings. He eventually arrived at Polenov's canvas and spent a considerable amount of time examining it, talking with the artist. In particular, he praised the expression on Christ's face, saying that from a distance "it seemed a little old, but up close it is really wonderful."
Afterwards, Alexander III continued to inspect the exhibition and Polenov remained with his painting. Vladimir Alexandrovich approached him shortly thereafter and inquired as to whether the painting was available for purchase. Polenov responded in the affirmative. Vladimir Alexandrovich then informed the artist that the Emperor wished to purchase the canvas. Indeed, some time later, Alexander III revisited the hall where the painting was exhibited and, having once again ascertained that the painting had not been purchased by anyone, announced that he was retaining it for himself. Upon the announcement that the painting had been acquired by the Emperor, the prevailing sentiment shifted. There was no longer any question of excluding it from the exhibition; moreover, it was relocated to a more adequately illuminated area. Naturally, the exhibition catalogue was printed, in which the painting was duly included.
Prior to the exhibition, Pavel Tretyakov proposed to Polenov that he sell the painting to him for 20,000 roubles, with the understanding that the Emperor would not purchase it. However, if Alexander III wished to purchase the painting, the price could be increased to 24,000 roubles. Alexander III ultimately paid 30,000 roubles for the painting, which was higher than Tretyakov's proposed price. Nevertheless, this was not the sole factor influencing the sale. The fact that the painting was purchased by the Emperor effectively legalised it, thereby enabling it to be exhibited at the exhibition and later in a museum. Had it been prohibited by the censors – a possibility that might have arisen had Tretyakov retained ownership – it would have been impossible to exhibit it in his gallery.
### After creation
Following the exhibition in St Petersburg, *Christ and the woman taken in adultery* was also exhibited in Moscow, with the consent of Alexander III. Prior to the Moscow exhibition, Polenov finalised some details and changed the date of the painting's creation to 1888.
Many years after the painting's creation, in July 1925, in a letter to Vsevolod Voinov, Polenov wrote: "The painting was titled by me 'Who among you is without sin'. That was its meaning. But the censor did not allow these words to be included in the catalogue, but allowed 'Christ and the woman caught in adultery', because that was the name of other paintings, and then in the museum it was called 'The Prodigal Woman', which was completely contrary to the Gospel story, which clearly says that it is a woman who has sinned. Later, my painting could have been called 'Who among you is without sin', because that is the main idea of the painting."
The proceeds from the sale of the painting "Christ and the woman taken in adultery" were used to purchase a plot of land on the upper Oka River. This land was subsequently developed into a large house, which was designed by Polenov himself. This house is now the State Memorial Historical-Art and Natural Museum-Reserve of V. D. Polenov. The painting itself was originally located in the Winter Palace, but following the establishment of the Russian Museum in 1897, it was transferred to the its collection.
During the Great Patriotic War, a number of paintings from the collections of the State Russian Museum were relocated to Molotov (Perm). For paintings of a considerable size, such as *Christ and the woman taken in adultery*, wooden shafts of up to 10 metres in length were constructed, on which the paintings were wound. The restoration artists were meticulous in their approach, ensuring that the paint layer was not wrinkled, as this could potentially cause damage. The large paintings, including *Christ and the woman taken in adultery*, were returned to the Russian Museum in April 1946. The full-size sketch of the painting *Christ and the woman taken in adultery*, which was located at the Polenovo estate, was evacuated to Tula in 1941, along with the remainder of the museum's collection. It was returned in 1942.
The painting *Christ and the woman taken in adultery* is currently on display at the State Russian Museum in Hall 32 of the Mikhailovsky Palace. Alongside this work, there are other pieces by Vasily Polenov.
## Description
The subject of the painting is related to the story of Christ and the woman taken in adultery described in the Gospel of John (the other three Gospels do not contain this story). The Pharisees and Sadducees brought to Christ a woman found guilty of adultery. According to the laws of Moses, she was to be stoned, which was contrary to the preaching of humanity that Christ professed. As a result, Christ was faced with the dilemma of either breaking the laws of Moses or acting contrary to his own preaching. This episode is described in the eighth chapter of the Gospel of John:
> Then each of them went home,<sup>8:1</sup> while Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.<sup>2</sup> Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him and he sat down and began to teach them.<sup>3</sup> The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery; and making her stand before all of them,<sup>4</sup> they said to him, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the very act of committing adultery.<sup>5</sup> Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?"<sup>6</sup> They said this to test him, so that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. <sup>7</sup> When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "Let anyone among you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her."<sup>8</sup> And once again he bent down and wrote on the ground.<sup>9</sup> When they heard it, they went away, one by one, beginning with the elders; and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him.<sup>10</sup> Jesus straightened up and said to her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"<sup>11</sup> She said, "No one, sir." And Jesus said, "Neither do I condemn you. Go your way, and from now on do not sin again."
>
> John 7:53–8:11, NRSV
The scene is set in Herod's side chapel of the Second Temple in Jerusalem, with its wide staircase descending in steps. On the left, the slanting rays of the setting sun illuminate the stone walls of the Temple. On the steps we can see the figures of people walking and beggars sitting on the ledges in indifferent poses. On the one hand, Polenov deliberately selected the location of the scene to be the outer courtyard of the Jerusalem Temple for reasons of historical accuracy. This was because the inner courtyard, also known as the "Court of Israel," was forbidden to pagans and foreigners on pain of death, so the motley crowd could only lead the sinner to one of the outer courtyards adjoining the temple walls. Conversely, by situating the action outside the temple, Polenov got the opportunity to portray the surrounding landscape. He used sketches and impressions from his trip to the Middle East, believing that "if \[nature\] has changed, it has changed very little... the sky, the mountains, the lake, the rocks, the paths, the stones, the trees, the flowers, it has all remained about the same." At the same time, the artist has acknowledged that he deviated from the "photographic accuracy" of the landscape in one detail. In the upper right corner of the painting, the slope of the Mount of Olives is depicted, which could not be seen from the south-eastern corner of the portico of the Jerusalem temple. In fact, this mountain is located just behind the viewer. The deliberate introduction of this inaccuracy could be justified by the symbolic significance and importance of the Mount of Olives in the context of that period of Jesus' life.
The left half of the painting depicts a scene of tranquility, with Christ seated amidst his disciples and other listeners. It is evident that he was engaged in discourse with them, which was abruptly interrupted by the appearance of a group of people with the sinful woman. This crowd is shown on the right side of the canvas, balancing Christ's entourage in a compositional sense. The painting depicts the culmination of the Gospel narrative: a challenging question of what to do with the woman taken in adultery has just been posed; the crowd is momentarily still, awaiting Christ's response; his disciples are similarly awaiting his reaction. According to the art historian Tamara Yurova, "the canvas is filled with the image of very lively and specific people, but they are all captured in a brief moment and therefore seem suddenly frozen in their reaction to what is happening, in their expression", and the characters depicted by Polenov "are more different from each other in their outward appearance than in their inner feelings."
In the composition of the painting, the most expressive image is that of Jesus Christ, who represents "a higher stage of human consciousness, the triumph of reason and humanity". His white chiton, which shades the pallor of his sad and tired face, is well associated with the inner nature of Christ. In general, the image created by Polenov evokes a sense of fatigue and immersion in melancholy contemplation. One can discern a certain softness, a noble posture, a "freedom of gesture and pose," as well as a complex mental life, which collectively distinguish Christ from his disciples, who appear more constrained in their thoughts, feelings, and movements. The artist sought to emphasise the human nature of Christ, attempting to portray his appearance in a manner similar to that of the ordinary people around him. In the words of the writer Vladimir Korolenko, Christ is "a man – indeed, a *man* – strong, muscular, with a strong tan of a travelling oriental preacher".

In the majority of the sketches and studies created for the painting, Christ is depicted wearing a white cap. This was also the case in the early versions of the main canvas, but a few days before the first public showing of the painting, Polenov removed the cap, persuaded by his mother, Maria Alekseevna. Some critics perceived the non-canonicity of the image of Christ in the absence of long hair. In particular, shortly before the Travellers' exhibition, Pavel Tretyakov wrote to Polenov: "I remarked something to you, and I can still remark it afterwards, as you yourself know very well. It's a pity that Christ has short hair - this is something you do not seem to agree with." According to the writer and critic Mikhail Chekhov, Polenov painted the face of Christ from the artist Isaac Levitan.
Seated next to Christ are his disciples, including Peter, John, James, and Judas. The figures of the Pharisee and Sadducee are positioned at the forefront of the crowd, in which the sinner is situated. The Pharisee is depicted as the most assertive, and he appears to be the individual who poses the question to Christ. To his left, the red-haired, well-fed Sadducee is depicted with a snide smile. Despite their enmity, in this episode they are united against Christ.
According to Polenov, and with the assistance of his wife Natalia Vasilievna, art critic Alexander Sobolev produced a detailed description of the painting, which was subsequently published in *Russkiye Vedomosti* in 1887 and in a separate brochure. According to this description, the boy seated on the ledge of the temple stairs is Mark, one of the future evangelists. To the right of Christ is John, and to the left is James, with Peter leaning on his staff behind him. In the same row as Peter are Andrew, Philip and James, son of Alphaeus, and in the second row are Judas, Cleopas and Matthew. The man with his face half-covered, standing by the cypress tree behind Christ's disciples, is Nicodemus the Pharisee, one of Christ's secret desciples. In the foreground, by the wicker baskets, is Mary, the mother of Mark, with her maid Rhoda beside her. The elderly man leaving the temple with the younger man is Pharisee Gamaliel, a learned rabbi who would, following the execution of Jesus, intercede in the Sanhedrin on behalf of his disciples-apostles. The woman depicted on the steps of the temple is the widow from the Gospels, whom Jesus described as "more beautiful than marvellous slabs of marble". The man on the right side of the painting is Simon of Cyrene, who is to carry the cross for Christ's crucifixion to Golgotha in the future.
## Studies, sketches and reproductions
During his many years of work on the theme associated with the canvas *Christ and the woman taken in adultery*, Polenov produced more than 150 drawings, studies, sketches and versions of the painting.
The Polenovo Estate Museum houses one of the earliest sketches of *Christ and the woman taken in adultery*, created in 1873. Additionally, the museum's collection includes a sketch from 1884 (oil, 23 × 45 cm), which was transferred from France in the 1980s, and a full-length sketch from 1885, executed in charcoal on canvas (307 × 585 cm).
The State Tretyakov Gallery houses a sketch of the painting *Christ and the woman taken in adultery* (1876, wood, oil, 22.2 × 34.7 cm, inv. 10581), which was acquired from Nikolay Krymov in 1930. Additionally, there is a later sketch from 1885 (canvas, oil, 26 × 48 cm, inv. 11142), which was previously owned by I.S. Ostroukhov and transferred in 1929 from the Ostroukhov Museum. Another sketch, dated 1884, belongs to the Kharkiv Art Museum.
The State Russian Museum houses 27 studies of *Christ and the woman taken in adultery*. Four additional studies are held by the Tretyakov Gallery. Several studies are part of the collection of the Polenovo Museum. At least two studies for this painting were in the collection of the Rumyantsev Museum. After the museum's dissolution in 1924, one study (*Christ*, 1880s, oil on canvas , 114 × 75 cm) was transferred to the Yekaterinburg Museum of Fine Arts, and another (*Head of an Old Man*, 1883, oil on canvas, 27 × 22 cm) was trasferred to the Omsk Regional Museum of Fine Arts named after M. A. Vrubel. The sketches for the painting are also held in a number of other museums and private collections.
A number of reduced author's reproductions of the painting with the same name exist. One of these, undated, is held in a private collection in Moscow. The other, dated 1888 and created with the help of Sergei Korovin, is in the V. P. Sukachev Irkutsk Regional Art Museum (canvas, oil, 150 × 266 cm).
The catalogue of the State Russian Museum notes the existence of another author's reproduction, dated 1907, which was exhibited at the Russian Art Exhibition in the US in 1924. It is likely that this is the same painting, which was sold in November 2011 at Bonhams' Russian auction in London for 4,073,250 pounds, or approximately 5,381,742 dollars (canvas, oil, 118 × 239 cm), under the title *He that is without sin among you*. Although the painting sold at the auction is dated 1908, it was written about as having participated in the 1924 exhibition in New York, where it was acquired by Charles Richard Crane. Prior to the auction, in October 2011, the artist's reproduction was exhibited at the Tretyakov Gallery as part of a preview of the lots.

## Reviews and criticism
In his article *The Exhibition of the Peredvizhniki*, published on March 1, 1887, in the *Novosty I Birzhevaya Gazeta*, art critic Vladimir Stasov devoted only a few sentences to the painting *Christ and the woman taken in adultery*. He noted that a detailed account of this significant work would require a separate article. However, he never wrote it. Stasov noted that in working on this painting Polenov "approached his task very carefully, travelled to Palestine, studied on the spot the architecture, the local types of people and nature, the light effects"; all of this produced "very interesting and powerful results." Stasov went on to write: "I will say in passing that part of Herod's temple, still extant, elegant pillars with ornamented capitals in the corner of the temple, the steps leading down from the temple, where the famous Gospel scene takes place, everything is colourful and elegant, illuminated by the bright Palestinian sun. In general, Polenov remained a graceful, elegant painter, as we have known him for a long time, since the beginning of his career in 1871. But to this he also added great skill and picturesqueness in the transfer of landscape". The writer and critic Vsevolod Garshin in his *Notes on Art Exhibitions*, published in March 1887 in the St Petersburg magazine *Severny Vestnik*, praised Polenov's painting, in which, in his words, "there is not a single, what they call, drapery, it is all a real dress, clothes; and the artist, who has closely studied the East, has managed to dress his heroes in such a way that they really wear clothes, live in them, rather than put them on for scaffolding or posing in front of a painter".
In his article *Two Paintings*, published in 1887 in *Russkie Vedomosti*, writer and publicist Vladimir Korolenko provides a detailed analysis of the image of Christ depicted in Polenov's painting. He wrote that "at first glance at a painting it is as if you do not notice its main figure", but this is only a superficial impression caused by a sudden feeling of inconsistency with established ideas. "The more you gaze at this remarkable figure, with its physical strength instead of its ascetic half-airiness, with its carelessly dropped hand on its knee, with all that unnoticed fatigue of a weary but strong man, and above all with that remarkable expression of face, the more the initial feeling is replaced by wonder, respect, love." According to Korolenko, he saw in the image of Christ "a remarkable success of artistic realism".
Artist Yeghishe Tadevosyan described the painting *Christ and the woman taken in adultery* as "a bright, cheerful, hot-sunny work", and called it "a daring challenge to religious prudes."
In his work, art historian Aleksei Fedorov-Davydov posited that, having rejected the tenets of official religion and ecclesiasticism, Polenov offered a realistic interpretation of both Christ and the entirety of the Gospel narrative. Nevertheless, he noted that "the depiction of a religious subject as a scene of alive real life becomes, so to speak, an end in itself." According to Fedorov-Davydov, such abstractness and lack of content were "akin to the formal understanding of the subject in academism". The realism in Polenov's painting is primarily evident in the form, or the means of depiction, rather than in the content, and that is why "he could get along with the traditions of academic historical painting". Nevertheless, in comparison with the painting *Christ and Sinner* by the academic painter Henryk Siemiradzki, Fedorov-Davydov asserted that Polenov's work was "more serious, noble, substantial and artistic". In his opinion, "Polenov's painting is the most significant and serious" among the attempts to revive large-format academic historical painting.

IHH led flotilla to Gaza
|
In April 2024, the IHH, a Turkish government backed GONGO is planning to launch a convoy of ships to Gaza. IHH is part of the ttilaf al-Khair foundation, an Islamic charity organization that backs the militant group Hamas and the Union of good. In April 2024, IHH organised a shipment of equipment and aid for Hamas run Gaza Strip. IHH according to Jean-Louis Bruguiere, who was the head of the France’s anti terrorism unit and coordinator for the European Union in a terrorism finance tracking program jointly run with the United States, has ties to Al Qaeda and terror plots in the United States. IHH has also been accused of trafficking arms in Libya. IHH had organised a shipment of aid in 2010 which was intercepted by the Israeli Navy during which 10 Turkish IHH activists were killed after clashing with the IDF. The 2024 shipment included ships from Lebanon, Libya and Turkey. The Turkish government backed shipment occurred after earlier in April the Turkish parliament called “Death to Israel” and Turkish president Erdogan said Israel was worse than Nazi Germany.

# IHH led flotilla to Gaza
In April 2024, the IHH (Foundation for Human Rights and Freedoms and Humanitarian Relief), a Turkish government backed GONGO is planning to launch a convoy of ships to Gaza. IHH is part of the ttilaf al-Khair foundation, an Islamic charity organization that backs the militant group Hamas and the Union of good. In April 2024, IHH organised a shipment of equipment and aid for Hamas run Gaza Strip. IHH according to Jean-Louis Bruguiere, who was the head of the France’s anti terrorism unit and coordinator for the European Union in a terrorism finance tracking program jointly run with the United States, has ties to Al Qaeda and terror plots in the United States. IHH has also been accused of trafficking arms in Libya. IHH had organised a shipment of aid in 2010 which was intercepted by the Israeli Navy during which 10 Turkish IHH activists were killed after clashing with the IDF.
The 2024 shipment included ships from Lebanon, Libya and Turkey. The Turkish government backed shipment occurred after earlier in April the Turkish parliament called “Death to Israel” and Turkish president Erdogan said Israel was worse than Nazi Germany.
## Background
IHH has ties to Al Qaeda, including plots such as the attempted Al Qaeda bombing of Los Angeles international airport in 1999 according to NBC. IHH has been accused of trafficking arms in Libya. IHH is supported by the Turkish government. In the 1990s, IHH members joined combatants in Bosnia and Chechnya.
Jean-Louis Bruguiere, an investigative judge who led France’s anti terrorism unit for almost 20 years and then was the coordinator for the European Union in a terrorism finance tracking program jointly run with the United States told the Associated Press in a telephone interview that IHH has long standing ties to terrorism and Jihad. The judge said IHH assisted Al Qaeda when Osama Bin Laden wished to strike American targets. Several members had direct ties to Al Qaeda, pointing to members of the Fateh Kamel cell who worked in IHH. IHH denies ties to organizations deemed terror organisations by the United States and the European Union.
In 1998 a French and Turkish police raid in Istanbul on IHH offices found weapons and incriminating documents. US terrorism expert Evan F. Kohlmann said in a 2006 report that it was suspected the IHH chief Bulent Yildrim was “recruiting for Jihad”. Al khair foundation, (the organization to which IHH pertains) following the October 7th attack had done crowdfunding for Hamas.
IHH is of interest to several security intelligence agencies due to linkage with terror groups according to the Guardian. Former British commander of British forces in Afghanistan, Richard Kemp described the activists in an IHH mission as “violent activists”.
In 2008 the organization was outlawed by then Israeli defense minister Ehud Barak due to its membership in the "Union of Good” a muslim brotherhood organization of multiple charities that was sanctioned by the United States Department of the Treasurey due to it’s funding of Hamas. The IHH had established close relations with Erdogan’s AKP party that had formed the Turkish government during most of the 21st century and had assisted Erdogan in attaining Muslim conservative support in elections.
IHH had organised a shipment of aid to Hamas run Gaza Strip in 2010 without coordination and permission from Israel. The shipment was intercepted by the Israeli Navy during which several IHH activists were killed after clashing with the IDF. In 2011 the United Nations Palmer report found that Israeli action was legal and in 2016 Turkey withdraw legal action against Israeli officers involved in the action. The IHH was accused of weapons trafficking in Libya and of advancing Turkish interests in the Syrian civil war.
In 2010, IHH offices were closed in Germany for supporting and providing funds for Hamas.
In September 2023, Israel intercepted 16 tons of explosives from Turkey to Gaza.
The Turkish government backed shipment was planend to set out after earlier in April 2024 the Turkish parliament called “Death to Israel” and Turkish president Erdogan said Israel was worse than Nazi Germany. The Turkish president said it will host the leader of Hamas, considered a terrorist organization in the United States and the European Union, in Turkey. Turkish president Erdogan in the same event blamed Zionist operators for orchestrating coups in Turkey since the 1980s.

# Fender Pro
The **Fender Pro** was an instrument amplifier manufactured by Fender Electric Instruments from 1946 to 1965. It was characterized by its dual 6L6-family power tubes and single 15" speaker, with output power increasing from 18 watts up to 40 watts over its production run. The Pro was replaced in the Fender lineup by its offspring the Pro Reverb.
## History
### Woody
The Professional was the largest of the three amplifiers Leo Fender produced at the launch of his company in 1946. It was built in small numbers on a special-order basis, and used the same circuitry and even the same chassis as the Model 26 (Deluxe), with "Model 26" on the control plate scratched out and 6L6 tubes and larger transformers driving a 15-inch field coil speaker. The distinctive rear-panel cabinet was uncovered hardwood (maple, mahogany or walnut), with red, gold or blue grill cloth and vertical chrome bars in the center.
### Tweed
In 1948 the Pro-Amp was part of Fender's revamped lineup in top-panel cabinets covered in luggage twill (miscalled "tweed") with redesigned electronics. The first version (1948–53) had a small, round-cornered speaker aperture and is known as the "TV-front;" this was followed by the "wide-panel" (1953–55) and "narrow-panel" (1955–60) cabinets. The circuit over this time evolved considerably, from 6SC7 (or 6SL7) grid-leak biased preamp tubes and paraphrase inverter driving a cathode-biased 6L6G push-pull output section (model 5A5) to a more advanced 12AY7 cathode-biased preamp and 12AX7 cathodyne inverter driving fixed-bias 6L6GBs with negative feedback and filter choke (model 5E5-A); while headroom was increased and distortion reduced, output power remained around 25 watts.
### Brownface
From 1960–63 the Pro along with Fender's other combo amps received a cabinet with front-mounted controls covered in brown Tolex; it shared its circuit with the other members of the "Professional Series", incorporating the architecture of the 5F6-A Bassman (long-tailed-pair phase inverter), separate bass, treble and volume controls on each channel and a complex "harmonic vibrato" tremolo circuit (6G5 and 6G5-A). The Pro, like many of the Professional Series, became solid-state rather than tube-rectified, eliminating rectifier sag; output was now pushed up to 40 watts through a pair of 5881s or 6L6GCs. The earliest brownface Pro Amps featured prototype aluminum knobs; these models primarily contain parts from 1959.
### Blackface
In late 1963 the Fender amplifier line was reclothed in black Tolex with black-painted control panels. The Pro circuit (AA763) was largely the same as its predecessor, but reverted to tube rather than solid-state rectification and dropped the costly "harmonic vibrato" for a simpler electro-optic tremolo circuit. The Pro was joined in 1965 by the Pro Reverb, essentially the same amplifier with spring reverb and 2×12" speakers; the non-reverb Pro was discontinued the following year.

Grantsmanship
|
Grantsmanship is the art of acquiring financial grants through the process of grant writing. This term is typically used when referring to the skills necessary to secure peer-reviewed research funding, but it can also apply more broadly to overall field of fundraising from private foundations, community foundations, corporate foundations, governments, and other grant-makers. The types of grants secured through effective grantsmanship include: Charitable grants, which generally provide money and/or in-kind resources in support of projects that benefit the public.
Research grants, which typically fund specific types of studies and research conducted by individuals, public agencies, schools, non-profit organizations, and corporations.
Artistic grants, or fellowships, which typically fund a specific artistic production or a particular artist/group. These grants are not the same as scholarships or grants to students. These grants typically require a complex and all-encompassing application to the specific grant-maker in order for a recipient to be considered for a grant. The person who writes the grant application or proposal is called the grant writer.

The person who writes the grant application or proposal is called the grant writer.
## Developing a project
Writing a successful grant proposal is a long process that begins with an idea. This idea should be one that will add to the understanding and knowledge of science, medicine, social issues, or other areas that will benefit the common good of society. Writers must spend time considering and conceptualizing how to complete the desired project or program. To help the writer visualize the big picture, drawing a plan or flow chart can be helpful.
After an idea is conceived, it is time to begin the process of creating the grant proposal. “Successful proposal writing involves the coordination of several activities including planning, searching for data and resources, writing and packaging a proposal, submitting the proposal to a funder, and follow-up.”
## Mission and goals
“Funders don’t give you money because an organization needs it; they give money because the organization can help them carry out their mission." A project wishing to receive funding must have goals and objectives that align with the funding source. Immediately after an idea is conceptualized, it is important to clarify the purpose of the project by writing a concise mission statement. Write out the project goals to achieve the mission and then the objectives that are specific activities that will lead to the accomplishment of the goals.
## Significance
The significance of projects seeking funding can be divided into four categories: theoretical, methodological, applied, or social. A theoretical project contributes to basic knowledge and helps refine current theories in a particular area or proposes a new theory. A methodological project involves the use of new and innovative methods or improvement of existing methods. A project with an applied significance provides answers to real-world problems. Projects that provide society with something useful and valuable have social significance.
## Searching for grants
When the idea has been developed into a proposal with goals and objectives, the writer must find the right grant. Resources to assist in finding grants are abundant. In some cases, online searches may help. Individuals and organizations in the United States may be able to apply for federal grants. In the U.S., a person seeking grant funding can also contact the Foundation Center Cooperating Collection which maintains a core collection of print and electronic directories of national grant funders.
Depending on the type of project there may be several possible sources for grants, and different funding agencies have different requirements and expectations.
## Program officer
In some countries, grant funding agencies may have a program officer who helps organizations and individuals applying for a grant, and who can provide information regarding deadlines, budgetary requirements, and preferences. The officer may be able to offer suggestions, criticism, and advice, or technical assistance including draft reviews.
## Successful grant proposals
Approved proposals are public documents which may be used as indicators of what the funding agency in question is looking for in a grant application. Some major agencies list recent grant recipients and titles of proposals online. In the United States, a grant writer may request copies from the funding agency using the Freedom of Information Act.
## Collaboration
Many grant writers find that collaborating with other professionals when working on a grant proposal can be advantageous because it combines ideas, resources, and abilities. In order for collaboration to be a help rather than a hindrance to the process, it is important to be certain that the people working together have the same work habits to develop clarity and focus and identify gaps in thinking and planning. Qualified experts and interested individuals familiar with the organization and its projects will add quality to the committee, but the grant writer is the key person in the group. The writer will lead, inspire and coordinate the activities and responsibilities of the committee members.
## Parts of the proposal
There are several components included in all grant proposals. An abstract, narrative, literature review and/or data, and methodology are included in all proposals. Some grant funders require more information in a proposal. Many funding agencies now require that applicants include an evaluation plan that shows how the grant recipient will determine if the project is successful or not. Additional information that might be required is data analysis, time tables, letters of support, or plans for dissemination.
### Title page
The title page creates the first impression for reviewers. Some funding may have specific requirements for a title page. Typically the title page will include the project title, the institution's name and the date.
### Abstract
The abstract is the most read section of the proposal. The abstract is usually 200–300 words and summarizes all parts of the grant application including key elements such as the general purpose, specific goals, research designs, methods of evaluation, contribution rationale, and the potential impact of project. It should serve as an accurate description of the proposal when it stands alone.
### Narrative
The narrative is a longer and more detailed explanation of the project. It contains the statement of need and documents the credibility of the applicant's ability to successfully undertake the project and reach the anticipated goals.
### Literature review
In the literature review section, the writer will show that he or she has done the necessary research to show that the proposed work will fit into what has already been done in the field. The literature review will show through data that he or she has gathered that the grant will address theoretical, research-based or social issues. This section should include critical evaluation of the literature, show more than one side, and indicate how his or her project is relevant to future research.
### Research data
Depending on the type of proposal being submitted, research data that has already been conducted can help prove the relevance and need for new research. Historical data, statistical analysis, graphs and figures, and long term projections can aid in justifying the agency's funding of the project.
### Methodology
The methodology is the plan that will be used to accomplish the aims of the project. In this section the writer will explain the specific processes and activities that will be used to conduct research or address social issues. Descriptive, historical, and some theoretical projects greatly depend on methodology just as experimental studies do.
In this section, the writer will also describe the sample of participants for the project and tell how he or she will gain access to these participants. He will explain the procedures and processes from the participants’ perspective. If there are multiple groups of participants in a research project, the writer will discuss how cross contamination will be prevented.
Potential difficulties and limitations of the proposed procedure should also be discussed.
The method of data analysis is identified in this section. The writer will show a clear plan of the way the collected data will be analyzed so that a reviewer will have an accurate picture of the entire project. This section is where the writer will prove to the reviewers that the methods being used are the most appropriate for the project and why other methods were not chosen.
### Program evaluation
In some types of applications, a program evaluation may be required. This is different from data analysis in the methodology section. This form of analysis evaluates the stated plan of action, the indicators, and specific measurements for assessing the project's progress toward achievement of the anticipated goals. The evaluation plan should include a formative evaluation to inform the effectiveness of various activities of the project and a summative evaluation to assess the impact and significance of the project on the target audience. The evaluation plan will address the success of the results that can be attributed to the project.
### Dissemination of information
The dissemination of information is the way in which the organization plans to share the information gained or successful results of the project with the academic, scientific and social worlds. Dissemination is an extension beyond the scientific exercise which makes an impact on the world.
A well-positioned proposal can show how the project can be integrated with service and teaching in course-based and field-based studies. The plan should reflect that the dissemination efforts will be tailored to a target audience and help develop an ongoing, productive relationship with groups dealing with the very problems that the proposed study or project will explore. Proposals that move the latest findings out of the experimental setting into the classroom, home, or community are more likely to be awarded funding than those that will take longer to show desired results.
Some suggested mechanisms for dissemination are websites, publications, presentations at conferences, training and education, and/or public outreach through museums or libraries.
### Budget
The budget is usually considered last after the merits of the proposal have been decided. This does not mean that it is less important than the other parts of the proposal.
The budget spells out project costs and shows in a spreadsheet or a table detailed line items. The most important parts of the project will be allocated the most money. A project budget may include costs for personnel, equipment, rental of office or laboratory space, and research or conference trips.
### Appendices
An appendix includes supplementary data or information to give more in-depth analysis or clarification. Some items included in an appendix are time tables, work plans, schedules, activities, methodologies, legal paperwork, and letters of support or endorsements from the community.
## Suggestions for specific types of proposals
If the proposal is experimental and focuses on new research, it probably consists of a complex series of experiments. After explaining each experiment, restate the point of completing this activity and how it relates to the main purpose of the study. At the end of the methodology section, it is important for the writer to summarize how all of the experiments converge to reach the expected outcome of the project.
In a sociolinguistic or theoretical project, the reviewers should be given information about the people who will be interviewed. It is important that they understand how the elicitation procedures will be adequate to obtain the varied population of participants needed for the study. The grant writer needs to explain why the population or database is the right one to work with and how it is capable of providing the kinds of data needed to address the issues of the project. The grant writer should provide samples of data already obtained if possible. Research that will be based on field work will need to be explained carefully for the reviewers to have a clear picture the work that will be completed. They should know that the participants conducting the field work are aware of the conditions they will be working in and are prepared to cope with the elements of the environment.
If the project is exploratory or descriptive work, the grant writer should explain the intrinsic value of doing this kind of research and the theoretical relevance. For a proposal aimed at creating a descriptive grammar or dictionary, the grant writer should explain why this document would be significant to the field being studied, the method of organization to be used, the potential users, and how the new book will be better than existing ones.
## Steps after funding decisions are made
After the grant proposal is submitted, the decision making process may take several months. The only thing that is certain is that there are only two end results—funding or rejection. It has been suggested that, particularly for "high risk" or "innovative" research programmes, the likelihood of rejection can partially depend on seasonal variation in the evaluators' perception of risk. Regardless of the outcome, there are steps that remain in the grant writing process.
### Receiving the grant
As soon as a grant writer is aware that the project has been funded, he or she needs to write a letter of appreciation acknowledging the award. The simplest way that organizations and grant writers are notified that they have received the grant funding is by receiving a cover letter and check by mail. However, many funding agencies require much more. Some agencies require that a contract is agreed upon and returned with the appropriate signatures before the organization can be awarded the grant money. A major part of most of these contracts is a stipulation that a pre-determined number of reports are submitted to the funding agency. If a contract is required, the grant writer should read it carefully and make notes of any requirements or reports that are required. If reports are requested, make sure that they are submitted on time. If a problem arises and the report will be late, the grant writer should be sure to send a written notification and call to make the funder aware of this.
If there is an opportunity for a grant to be renewed, the organization should immediately begin collecting artifacts that show the quality of work being completed and achieved during each step of the project. Another important factor after receiving funding is to remain flexible. Funders might ask for adjustments in methods, evaluation or budget. The organization must be willing to alter or modify activities, evaluation or time lines when asked to by the funding agency. Being flexible and willing to work cooperatively with the funding agency are key components in developing positive relationship with the grant funder. This could put the organization and the grant writer in a favorable position for future opportunities between the grant recipient and the funding agency.
### Rejection
Rejection is never easy to accept, but it is a reality that only a few of the grant proposals will be funded each cycle. If the grant writer does not hear about the outcome of the grant reviews, it may be necessary to contact the funding agency. Not all agencies notify applicants who were not awarded a grant. Follow-up is important, and a positive phone call is an appropriate way of making contact. When talking to the program officer, the grant writer must avoid feeling angry or combative. The decisions made by the review board were not personal; they were based on how well the goals and expected outcomes of each proposal aligned with the mission of the funding agency. The writer should try to make the call positive and try to determine whether it would be advantageous to reapply in the future.
The next step in the follow-up process is to request copies of the reviewers' comments. These are not sent automatically. It is essential for the grant writer to know why the project was rejected. After reading the comments, the writer may realize that the rejection had very little to do with quality of the proposal. The funding agency may have been flooded with applications; and, although they liked the proposal and saw the significance and relevance, they simply ran out of money. Another cause of rejection could be a small point of confusion that the grant writer can easily resolve and resubmit the proposal in the next cycle.
These are the best circumstances in which to accept rejection, but most often the rejection is more difficult to overcome because it is due to a lack of merit or the quality of the grant application. It may be hard for the grant writer to read negative comments about a proposal that he or she spent so much time and energy to develop and compose. For some writers it may take a cooling off period before he or she is ready to read the negative comments, and this is an appropriate, positive way to handle the rejection.
As tempting as it may be for the grant writer to dismiss the comments of the reviewers, it is in the best interest of the organization to address the suggestions and criticism made about the proposal. The grant writer needs to read and evaluate the reviewers' comments as objectively as possible. After considering the comments about the proposal, he or she should reconsider the alignment of the project goals and the funding agency's mission. If the writer recognizes an incongruity of the goals, his or her time will be better spent finding a new grant to apply for. However, if the grant writer still feels that the goals correspond, he or she needs to determine why the proposal did not work, make necessary changes, resubmit the proposal at the next cycle.
The grant writer must understand that rejection does not mean that a proposal should be abandoned. It can be revived and revised and resubmitted. Many grant proposal applications are only successful on the second or third submission. The only time a grant writer can be certain that the grant will not receive funding is when the proposal is not submitted.
If the grant writer feels that it is worthwhile to resubmit the proposal in the future, he or she must determine the components of the grant application that need improvement. One way to determine these areas is to have a colleague who is not involved with the project evaluate the reviewers' comments and assess their validity. His or her assessment of the criticisms will assist in developing the proposal in the future. Looking at the criticism through someone else's eyes will help the grant writer become more objective.
The grant writer needs to determine the areas of the proposal are weak, confusing, or unsupported. Does the narrative fail to establish the alignment of the goals of the proposal and the funding agency? Does the literature review not show how the project is relevant to the field of study? Does the methodology need to be redesigned? Is the evaluation plan inadequate to determine if the expected goals were met? Is the budget unrealistic? It is imperative that the grant writer meticulously examine the proposal and identify the areas that need to be improved, modified, or eliminated. This will allow him or her to create a document that better communicates the merits of the proposal and how it can contribute to the funding agency's mission.

Peter Evans (radio personality)
|
Peter Evans (1927–1985) was a breakfast radio announcer on the Australian Broadcasting Commission's station 3LO. Prior to this, he had been a broadcaster at Melbourne commercial radio station 3XY. His ABC program ran for over two decades from 1965 until 1985 and for much of that period was the highest rating breakfast radio program in Melbourne. The radio show was also relayed and aired through ABC Radio in Brisbane Queensland. Evans was renowned for his eccentricities and often came across as a bitter and grumpy man, seemingly detached from the present and displaying a greater fondness for the bygone era of the British Empire than for the country he had resided in for the majority of his life. He repeatedly broke traditional broadcasting guidelines by such acts as allowing periods of several seconds of silence to be broadcast. Coming from a Welsh background and bearing the common Welsh surname "Evans", he often referred to himself in the traditional Welsh form of "Evans the Wireless", whereby a person's occupation was used as part of their identifier. The breakfast show was introduced by a fast-paced and witty instrumental tune called "Gentleman Jim", which was composed and conducted by Bert Kaempfert & his Orchestra, released in 1963. At the closing of the breakfast show Evans would again play "Gentleman Jim" as the show's theme, but usually he made a few satirical comments enticing the radio audience to tune in again tomorrow.

# Peter Evans (radio personality)
**Peter Evans** (1927–1985) was a breakfast radio announcer on the Australian Broadcasting Commission's station 3LO (now 774 ABC Melbourne). Prior to this, he had been a broadcaster at Melbourne commercial radio station 3XY. His ABC program ran for over two decades from 1965 until 1985 and for much of that period was the highest rating breakfast radio program in Melbourne. The radio show was also relayed and aired through ABC Radio in Brisbane Queensland.
Evans was renowned for his eccentricities and often came across as a bitter and grumpy man, seemingly detached from the present and displaying a greater fondness for the bygone era of the British Empire than for the country he had resided in for the majority of his life.
He repeatedly broke traditional broadcasting guidelines by such acts as allowing periods of several seconds of silence to be broadcast.

Land alienation in Ratanakiri Province
|
Despite a 2001 law allowing indigenous communities to obtain collective title to traditional lands, land alienation has been a major problem in Ratanakiri Province, Cambodia; some villages have been left nearly landless. The national government has granted concessions over land traditionally possessed by Ratanakiri's indigenous peoples, and even land "sales" have often involved bribes to officials, coercion, threats, or misinformation. For instance, a group of Ratanakiri villagers in 2001 were given salt and promises of development by military representatives in exchange for thumbprinting documents that—unbeknownst to them—transferred ownership of their ancestral lands to a military general. Following the involvement of several international NGOs, land alienation has decreased in frequency. These NGOs have assisted in the training of provincial government officials, promoting understanding of indigenous community concerns as well as encouraging dialog between the provincial and national governments. Pilot communal land titling projects have aimed to give legal force to traditional land ownership. Community natural resource management initiatives in Ratanakiri have been successful and have served as models for similar programs on a national level.

# Heat (Buffy/Angel novel)
***Heat*** is an original novel based on the television series *Buffy the Vampire Slayer* and *Angel*. Tagline: "An original crossover novel based on the hit television series created by Joss Whedon & David Greenwalt"
## Plot summary
Buffy and Angel both battle the same ancient evil, a Possessor who was once Qin, First Emperor of China. As a Possessor, Qin's body loses its temperature fast and he is forced to jump from body to body through the ages, rendering him immortal. In present-day Sunnydale and Los Angeles, Qin is attempting to usher in the Year of the Hot Devil and drive humans out of his dimension by resurrecting an ancient dragon frozen in ice from centuries before.
## Continuity
* Set during *Buffy* season 7, and *Angel* season 4. References in the book place it after the sixth episode of each series ("Him" and "Spin the Bottle" respectively).
* Buffyverse canon characters include: Buffy, Angel, Cordelia, Spike, Jhiera
* Jhiera, who previously appeared in Angel episode She, appears throughout.
### Canonical issues
*Buffy*/*Angel* books such as this one are not usually considered by fans as canonical. Some fans consider them stories from the imaginations of authors and artists, while other fans consider them as taking place in an alternative fictional reality. However unlike fan fiction, overviews summarising their story, written early in the writing process, were 'approved' by both Fox and Joss Whedon (or his office), and the books were therefore later published as officially *Buffy*/*Angel* merchandise. Yet, in light of the verbal ret-con given by George Lucas, when Marvel/Disney bought the rights to the Star Wars film franchise, the permanence of such officiality is understandably dubious.

# Amanda Tanen
**Amanda Tanen** (born **Amanda Sommers**) is a fictional character in the American dramedy series *Ugly Betty* and spin-off web-series *Mode After Hours*. She is played by Becki Newton. Like Henry Grubstick, Amanda shares a last name with a real-life member of *Ugly Betty*'s production staff — writer Brian Tanen.
## Background
Amanda Tanen is the beautiful receptionist at *MODE* magazine, born 14 January 1982, and is allied with both Wilhelmina Slater and Wilhelmina's assistant Marc St. James when it comes to taking down the two major thorns in Wilhelmina's side; Betty Suarez and Betty's boss Daniel Meade (with whom Amanda is in love). Amanda was raised in the Hamptons on Long Island, although her parents now live in Scarsdale. Believed to be the daughter of an investment banker who, as she hinted in an earlier episode, is an embezzler, she learned in the season one finale that she is actually the daughter of the late Fey Sommers. Her uncle is the "thin one" out of the Three Tenors. Amanda aspires to marry royalty, preferably a duke, as a prince "would be too much pressure". Curious about her past, Amanda decides to seek out the identity of her father. Amanda presumed her father to be KISS bassist and lead singer Gene Simmons. Amanda has a tendency to go on eating binges whenever she feels threatened, as a way to control her fears and insecurities. This issue is expected to be addressed in future episodes, where it is learned her past involves uncontrollable eating habits and attempts to be the "perfect" woman. Despite her somewhat conceited and ditzy exterior she is quite bright, but has a tendency to butcher the Spanish language, using mangled pronunciations like "hoe-la" (hōʹlä) for *hola* and "bareo" (bârʹē-ō) for *barrio*, and like Betty, she too found herself becoming the victim of a prank herself when a rival employee sent her a hobble dress Amanda thought came from a designer. She even had a romantic fling with a closeted straight designer named Tavares, but would end it after he took advantage of her generosity.
Prior to working at *MODE*, Amanda was an actress, and appeared as a hostess in a commercial for a Medieval themed restaurant. This is an inside joke, referencing an Olive Garden commercial in which Becki Newton, who plays Amanda, appeared as one of the restaurant chain's cheery hostesses before her fame on *Ugly Betty*.
In the first season finale, she was trapped in Fey Sommers' secret room ("love dungeon") with Christina McKinney after which they consequently got drunk and began confessing secrets to each other. Though most of Amanda's revelations initially revolved around her sexcapades (to which Christina responds in one scene, "Your special place was ruined years ago"). Another scene hints she might have bisexual tendencies when she asked Christina if she wanted to kiss (earlier in the season she appeared very pleased when the chance of a threesome with Daniel and a female model arose, though this may have been due to her feelings for Daniel). She later revealed to Christina the late Sommers was a friend of her family and her father had appealed to Fey for help in getting Amanda a job at *MODE* after her career as an actress didn't pan out. As Christina marveled at this while stumbling around drunk, she uncovered a red safe hidden under a scarf and the pair managed to get it open (using Sommers' genuine measurements as the combination). Instead of money inside, a bunch of photos of Amanda as a child are uncovered, as well as a diary and a genuine birth certificate, naming Sommers as Amanda's biological mother.
At the start of the second season, it is shown she had temporarily gained weight in an attempt to supplement her worry and frustration with candy, which was brought on after learning of her parentage. She also became the caretaker of her late mother's pet dog, Halston, as most of Fey's possessions were given away at auction for charity. In the episode "Grin and Bear It", Wilhelmina threatens her and describes her as a "blond receptionist on the twenty-eighth floor", to which Amanda admits that she is not a natural blond. Wilhelmina also reveals that Amanda was conceived at Studio 54, during the party celebrating Fey's first issue of *MODE*. At the wedding of Wilhelmina and Bradford she sang the song "Milkshake" by Kelis and had the whole reception clapping with her. She also became involved with rival employee Nick Pepper, whose "dislike" between each other is a turn-on.
She also discovered the truth about what Fey did to Claire Meade, resulting in Fey's murder. After discovering several diary pages hidden in the back of Fey's portrait in the Love Dungeon, Amanda learned Fey was responsible for poisoning a perfume she gave to Bradford so he could give it to Claire as a gift. When Claire used it, the perfume made her go crazy, resulting in her killing Fey. Amanda wanted to get back at Claire for her mother's death by forcing Marc to burn the pages and getting rid of the perfume Claire gave to Betty after she spotted it on Betty's desk, only to have Marc tell her it was Fey who killed herself. Realizing this, Amanda turned over the evidence to Betty at Claire's trial, resulting in Claire being set free.
In the third season, Amanda's spending lifestyle would catch up with her. After being evicted from her apartment and accumulating debt, she ends up moving in with Betty at her apartment, where Betty would give her a wake-up call over her financial responsibilities, which resulted in Amanda acquiring a second job at a fast-food restaurant. After realizing she had been taking advantage of Betty, Amanda began to thaw to Betty, and began treating her better, though still affectionately mocks her. During the financial struggles at *MODE* Amanda was made redundant, she was re-instated when Calvin Hartley invests in the company in order to save it from bankruptcy.
As the fourth season began, Amanda would finally bury the hatchet with Claire over Fey, and agreed to help Claire with establishing a relationship with Claire's son Tyler, who she gave up for adoption because he was the product of an affair between Claire and Calvin, who by the way, is also the father of Matt Hartley, whom she began to pursue after he and Betty broke up, only to end it after she realized that Matt still had feelings for Betty. Amanda later sleeps with Daniel; however, they realize that it only occurred out of impulse, later saying that they were "there for each other and that was it".
She is present at Betty's farewell party, last seen dancing with Betty and Marc - her best friends. Her final line of dialogue is: "I love this song!"
Amanda's favorite "fall color" is pale carmine.
## Family life
In the wake of discovering the truth about her mother, Amanda tried to find out more about her connection to Fey Sommers as she stands to inherit the late editor's fortune and to find out why her adoptive parents kept the truth from her all these years. The Tanens explained Fey was focused on her career at the time and didn't think she would be able to devote her efforts in raising Amanda.
With the fact Fey had carried a long-term affair with Bradford Meade, Amanda worried Bradford may be her biological father since it would mean she had committed incest by sleeping with Daniel, who would be her half-brother. She expressed this concern to Daniel, right before reading the results of a DNA test showing they were not related.
The search for her biological father has been Amanda's priority throughout season 2. In "Grin and Bear It", she learned from Wilhelmina (who was Fey's assistant and confidant) that she was conceived at Studio 54 during a celebration honoring Fey's first issue as editor-in-chief of *Mode*. With leads on her search, which led to her attempts to contact Kiss frontman Gene Simmons in "A Thousand Words By Friday", with Marc's help, she wrote and performed a song ("Gene Simmons is My Daddy") in hopes to catch the attention of someone in Simmons' camp - but as luck would have it, Simmons himself showed up to watch Amanda's performance. This led to a reality show called "Daddy's Little Girl" about their life as father and daughter. However, Amanda later learned that Simmons was only pretending to be her father to gain publicity.
The identity of Amanda's father was finally revealed to be a gay soap opera star named Spencer Cannon in "The Past Presents The Future", when Amanda unknowingly sets him and Marc together on a date.
## Connections
* Betty Suarez \- Executive Assistant to the Editor in Chief at *MODE*; Amanda has wanted to get rid of Betty from the beginning, believing that Betty stole a job that should have been hers - assistant to Daniel Meade. She schemed to get rid of Betty by any and all means, so she could get her job and win Daniel's affection and admiration. After Betty agreed to take Sofia Reyes' job offer, Amanda replaced her temporarily as Daniel's assistant. In the episode "In or Out" she realized the assistant job was better suited to Betty and returned to her receptionist's desk with a pay raise. Despite her frequently taking jabs at Betty, the two seem to like each other and at times look to be friends. Betty is the only person to have seen Amanda crying after she ended her affair with Daniel. Amanda always seems interested in Betty's love life; she was with Betty when she found out Walter wanted Betty to move in with him. She also has fun tormenting Betty about her crush on Henry, calling him her "Nerd Lover." In the episode "Crush'd" she becomes Betty's roommate and despite the ups and downs, both begin to bond slowly, Amanda taking the responsibility of paying half of the rent and Betty starting to take her advice seriously. For the fourth season they are shown to be good friends and Betty even invites Amanda to Hilda's bachelorette trip to London.
* Daniel Meade \- Editor-In-Chief at *MODE*; He sees Amanda as another one-night stand—he slept with her but forgot about it the following day—and Amanda has been frustrated by his continual womanizing. After Daniel lost an expensive watch and sent Betty looking for it at the apartments of his past week's conquests, Betty turned up empty handed while Amanda had it with her the entire time. Daniel gave Betty a list of names, addresses and the day of the week he was with that girl. He had forgotten to list one night of the week and it was the night he was with Amanda. She finally admitted she had the watch and asked Betty to not tell Daniel. Since he never figured out which girl it was, Amanda came forward and she finally relinquished the possibility of a serious relationship with him. Her past feelings for Daniel have caused problems for proving her loyalty to Wilhelmina and Marc. Amanda feared Daniel may be her half-brother as she suspected Daniel's father Bradford may be her father, but the results came back negative. In the fourth season, episode 8 "The Bahamas Triangle", Daniel consoles her for the affair of Matt, and they spent the night together. From then they become lovers again and, after Marc, who got a promotion from Wilhelmina (after being Daniel's assistant, and once again getting his old job back) as her new Junior Fashion Editor, Amanda becomes Daniel's assistant, as she said that she is the most perfect assistant for him- she knows him well and they are already lovers (or *fun buddies* as Amanda says), so he won't be distracted by wondering should he or should he not sleep with his gorgeous assistant, which he would probably have. They become closer and Daniel agrees to spend the night at her house without sexual implications. After she met Tyler, Daniel's half brother, she realizes that she must end her relationship with Daniel. After an initial opposition from Daniel, he ends up accepting Amanda's love for his half brother, though not so easily.
* Marc St. James \- Executive Assistant to Wilhelmina Slater at *MODE* and Amanda's frequent co-conspirator in plans to humiliate Betty and sabotage her work. They have a co-dependent relationship; she often pretended to be his girlfriend to help him hide from his mother that he was gay, and he has taken risks to protect her job from Wilhelmina. The two shared a rowdy Thanksgiving in the office together, drinking champagne, playing with couture gowns, and placing a prank phone call to the mysterious bandaged woman, which placed both their jobs in jeopardy. In a scene at Tavares' party, Marc claims Amanda had a huge crush on him when he first started working at *MODE*, before she realised he was gay, but she insisted she kept staring at him only because he had a discoloured tooth at the time.
* Christina McKinney \- British Seamstress at *MODE*; Amanda frequently calls her "Braveheart" because she's Scottish. They have an antipathetic relationship; in "Fake Plastic Snow" Christina told "Santa Claus" she wishes that Amanda had "a brain". She was with Amanda when she discovered Fey Sommers was her mother.
* Sofia Reyes - Editor in Chief at *MYW*; In Trust, Lust, and Must she became the catalyst for Amanda's realization a relationship with Daniel was not possible. After discovering that Sofia was actually using Daniel as a stunt promotion for her new magazine ("Sofia's Choice"), Amanda took revenge on Sofia by viciously beating her with her purse in the elevator where Sofia and Daniel first met ("Trust").
* Nick Pepper - Amanda took an instant dislike to Nick, partly because he wouldn't go out with her. She feels she's better suited for his job as Alexis' PA. So using the same tactics she used to unsuccessfully try and take Betty's job, Amanda attempts to strong-arm her way into forcing Nick out of his by convincing Alexis she should pick her over Nick. In the episode Bananas for Betty, after shooting Nick in a paintball game, Amanda and Nick end up making out.
* Fey Sommers \- Daniel Meade's predecessor as Editor-In-Chief at *MODE*; in the finale of the first season, while locked in Fey Sommer's "Love Dungeon", Amanda discovers childhood photos of her and a birth certificate declaring Fey as Amanda's mother.
* Bradford Meade \- CEO of Meade Publications; because of his affair with Fey Sommers, Amanda suspected he may be her biological father, but it turned out he was not.
* Henry Grubstick \- Accountant at Meade Publications; along with Marc, Amanda likes to torture him, especially when it involves Betty or when they demand their paychecks...as long as they don't endure his wrath (as they did in "Betty's Wait Problem").
* Wilhelmina Slater \- Co-editor-in-chief at Mode. She is one of the connections and was an assistant to her biological mother Fey.
* Spencer Cannon - Amanda's biological father. He is a soap opera actor who hired Amanda as his personal stylist, but he actually knew that Amanda was his daughter because he found her through an adoption agency. Marc originally found out that he is Amanda's biological father because he saw the Tweety Bird tattoo on his lower back.

# Proposed divestment of TikTok by ByteDance
In April 2024, the United States Congress passed a bill requiring ByteDance divest its video hosting service TikTok in order to operate in the country.
## Background
### National security concerns
In October 2019, senator Marco Rubio requested a Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States inquiry into TikTok over concerns that the app's parent company ByteDance was censoring content that did not align with the Chinese Communist Party. In November, Reuters reported that the agency had opened a national security review into ByteDance over its acquisition of Musical.ly, a social media service the company acquired in 2017 and merged with TikTok the following year.
### Attempts to restrict TikTok
## Divestment legislation
### Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act
### 21st Century Peace through Strength Act
United States House of Representatives speaker Mike Johnson included an amendment to the Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act to a foreign aid package for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan, extending the deadline for ByteDance to divest TikTok by six months and an additional three months at the discretion of president Joe Biden. The bill passed in the House of Representatives on April 20 and in the Senate three days later. Biden signed it into law the following day.
According to *The Information*, ByteDance intends to file a legal challenge to the 21st Century Peace through Strength Act. TikTok's CEO Shou Chew publicly announced the companies intention to sue over the bill.

Cayyu(Diche Oto) is a town in north-eastern Ethiopia, located in Administrative Zone 1 of the Afar Region. During the Italian occupation, the settlement was known as Diciotto, Italian for "eighteen". Based on figures from the Central Statistical Agency in 2005, the town had an estimated total population of 1,998 of whom 1,131 were males and 867 were females. It is one of four towns in Elidar woreda. Philip Briggs has described Diche Oto as "a rather odd settlement of brightly painted corrugated iron buildings with large balconies. As the last Ethiopian town before the Djibouti border, it is a popular stopover with truck drivers, and has consequently acquired an unexpectedly shifty, seedy atmosphere."

Mill Creek (Davidson County, Tennessee)
|
Mill Creek is a 27.9-mile-long (44.9 km) tributary of the Cumberland River that extends through Williamson and Davidson counties in the U.S. state of Tennessee. Via the Cumberland and Ohio rivers, it is part of the Mississippi River watershed. The creek begins near Nolensville, Tennessee, and continues into Metropolitan Nashville, winding through Antioch, Cane Ridge, South Nashville, and Donelson, before flowing into the Cumberland about 2 miles (3 km) upstream from downtown Nashville. It is prone to flooding, and was the first site of major flooding during the 2010 Tennessee floods. At least five people were killed as a result of the creek's raging flash flood, and millions of dollars of property damage was reported along Mill Creek. Mill Creek is the only known habitat in the world for the endangered Nashville Crayfish.

# Crossings (Buffy novel)
***Crossings*** is an original novel based on the U.S. television series *Buffy the Vampire Slayer*.
## Plot summary
While at the theater for a Star Trek marathon with Anya, Xander recognizes a friend of his, from the arcade, enter the theater and begin threatening and beating humans in a very demonic way. Upon further inspection, Xander learns that his friend, Robby, was involved in total immersion VR video game beta testing. But the testing was a little too secretive, according to Robby's girlfriend. Meanwhile, Buffy and Dawn are having issues with one another, and Buffy doesn't know how to deal with being Dawn's new "mom" after the recent death of their own mother. After much research concerning the bizarre video game tests, and the appearance of a man named Bobby Lee Tooker, the group discovers that the video game isn't so much a video game, as much as it is another dimensional portal while the human bodies are being taken over by demons. Buffy needs to find a way to get these beta testers (including a very reluctant Xander) back into the real world and destroy the evil demon who's using the testers to conjure a powerful being.
## Continuity
* Supposed to be set in *Buffy* season 5.
### Canonical issues
*Buffy* books such as this one are not usually considered by fans as canonical. Some fans consider them stories from the imaginations of authors and artists, while other fans consider them as taking place in an alternative fictional reality. However unlike fan fiction, overviews summarising their story, written early in the writing process, were 'approved' by both Fox and Joss Whedon (or his office), and the books were therefore later published as official *Buffy*/*Angel* merchandise.

# Dream And Do
**Dream And Do** (foaled 19 February 2017) is an Irish-bred, French-trained Thoroughbred racehorse. She showed great promise as a two-year-old in 2019 when she won three of her four races including the Group 3 Prix Miesque. In the following year she ran second in the Prix de la Grotte before taking the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches.
## Background
Dream And Do is a bay filly with a white star and snip bred in France by the Normandy-based Haras du Logis Saint Germain. As a yearling in August 2018 she was put up for auction at the Arqana Deauville sale but failed to reach her reserve price of $91,504. She was sent into training with Frederic Rossi at his base near Marseille and has been ridden in most of her races by Maxime Guyon.
She was from the sixth crop of foals sired by the Aga Khan's stallion Siyouni whose biggest win came in the 2009 running of the Prix Jean-Luc Lagardère. His other offspring have included Sottsass, Laurens and Ervedya. Dream And Do's dam, Venetia's Dream, showed no racing ability earning as she failed to win in eight appearances on the track. She was a half-sister to the dam of Charm Spirit and a descendant of the Canadian broodmare Ciboulette, making her also a relative of L'Enjoleur, Fanfreluche, La Voyageuse and Holy Roman Emperor.
## Racing career
### 2019: two-year-old season
Dream And Do made her racecourse debut in a maiden race over 1500 metres on good-to-soft ground at Deauville Racecourse on 6 August when she finished second of the seven runners, beaten one and a half lengths by the André Fabre-trained winner Savarin. On 9 September she was partnered by Sylvain Guis in a 1600-metre maiden at Marseille Borely and recorded her first success as she won by a length from Pomme d'Amour at odds of 0.8/1. The filly then started favourite for the Prix Esmeralda over 1400 metres on soft ground at Maisons-Laffitte Racecourse on 1 October and won by two lengths and a head from Yomogi and Mageva.
Four weeks after her win in the Prix Esmeralda, Dream And Do was stepped up in class for the Group 3 Prix Miesque over the same course and distance. She went off the 1.3/1 favourite in an eight-runner field which also included Mageva, Yomogi and the Listed race winners Les Hogues and Sopran Ival. After disputing the lead with Yomogi she gained the advantage 300 metres from the finish and kept on well to hold off a late challenge from Les Hogues and win by a neck.
### 2020: three-year-old season
The COVID-19 outbreak led to racing in France being suspended from 16 March. On 11 May, the day on which French racing resumed, Dream And Do contested the Group 3 Prix de la Grotte over 1600 metres at Longchamp Racecourse and went off the 6.1/1 fourth choice in the betting behind Tropbeau (winner of the Prix du Calvados and third in the Cheveley Park Stakes). After racing in mid division she took the lead 400 metres from the finish but was overstken by Tropbeau and beaten half a length into second place.
The 2020 edition of the Poule d'Essai des Pouliches was run over the straight 1600 metres course at Deauville Racecourse on 1 June after Longchamp was deemed to be in a "red zone" with high infection rates. Dream And Do was made the 7.8/1 fourth choice in the betting behind Tropbeau, Simeen (undefeated in three races) and Tickle Me Green. After being settled just behind the leaders and overcoming some interference as she attempted to obtain a clear run, Dream And Do overtook the front-running Marieta 100 metres from the finish and held off a strong late challenge from Speak of the Devil to win by a nose. After the race Frederic Rossi, who was recording the biggest win in a 30-year training career, commented "I knew that 1600 metres is really the end of her rope and in my opinion she is a real champion over 1400 metres. She has that ability to accelerate very quickly and it is a delicate balancing act with her over 1600 metres" before going on to state that the filly would probably skip the Prix de Diane in favour of the Prix Jean Prat.

# 1764 Polish–Lithuanian royal election
The **1764 Polish–Lithuanian royal election** was an election to decide on the new candidate for the Polish–Lithuanian throne.
## Background
The Seven Years' War, which ended in 1763, established a new pattern of political alliances in Europe. The Kingdom of Prussia, the Kingdom of Great Britain and the Russian Empire emerged as great powers, while the position of Austria, France, Spain, Sweden and the Ottoman Empire was weakened. As a result of the war, the Russian Empress, Catherine the Great, was in almost complete control of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth. Catherine was supported by the Prussian monarch, Frederick the Great, who hoped to eventually annex Polish provinces of Royal Prussia and Greater Poland.
## History
After the death of Augustus III of Poland, two dominant political camps of Poland expressed their interest to the Polish throne. The Potocki family promoted Hetman Jan Klemens Branicki, while the Czartoryski family backed its leader, Duke Adam Kazimierz Czartoryski. Under pressure from Catherine, the Czartoryskis, however, withdrew the candidacy of Adam Kazimierz, and replaced him with Stolnik from the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, Stanisław August Poniatowski, who had been one of Catherine’s lovers. Russian support however, did not mean that Poniatowski would automatically become new monarch of the Commonwealth. Polish–Lithuanian szlachta was at that time strongly anti-Russian, and in case of a free election, Branicki’s victory was secure.
The Czartoryski family, fearing a civil war, asked the Russian empress for military assistance. They were not aware of the fact that the Russians and their Prussian allies had previously signed a secret pact, which stipulated the use of a military force to support Poniatowski. As early as October 17, 1763, Catherine wrote a letter to Frederick, in which she expressed the opinion that from all candidates to the Polish crown, Poniatowski was the least popular one, therefore, he would be most grateful to those who had made him monarch. On April 11, 1764, Russia and Prussia signed the pact, in which both sides pledged to promote Poniatowski. He was the most convenient candidate for the Russians, as a former lover of Catherine, he would guarantee submission to his Russian sponsor. The Czartoryskis, who called themselves Familia, regarded themselves as patriots, who saw the need for urgent reforms for the declining Commonwealth. At the same time, they were of the opinion that all reforms were to be carried out with Russian permission only, as the Russian Empire was the dominant force in Central and Eastern Europe. Therefore, leaders of the Familia, Andrzej Zamoyski and August Aleksander Czartoryski urged Catherine to send the Russian army. The empress did so, issuing an announcement that she wanted to protect all freedoms of the Commonwealth. The Potockis, who called themselves the Republicans, on the other hand, supported the notion of Golden Liberty, together with *liberum veto*.
The first clash between the two camps took place during the Convocation Sejm, which began on May 7, 1764. The Republicans vetoed all bills brought forward by the Czartoryskis. The Russian army, stationed near Warsaw, intervened and ordered the Republicans to leave the Polish capital. Remaining Sejm deputies called a confederation, but failed to carry out any significant changes in the government of the Commonwealth. Poniatowski himself was an envoy to the Convocation Sejm, he represented the Land of Warsaw.
The Election Sejm, which as usual took place in early September 1764 in Wola near Warsaw, was attended by some 5,000 nobles. Poniatowski, backed by Russian and Prussian envoys, as well as diplomats from Great Britain and Denmark–Norway, was unanimously elected on September 7. On September 13 Poniatowski signed the *pacta conventa*, in which he pledged to marry a Roman Catholic.
On November 25, 1764, following the order of Catherine the Great, Primate Władysław Aleksander Łubieński crowned Poniatowski as King of Poland. The ceremony took place at St. John's Archcathedral, Warsaw, and the new king, to dismay of conservatives, did not put on traditional Polish clothes, preferring to wear instead a 16th-century Spanish outfit.
## Aftermath
Poniatowski’s election was not at first recognized by several European states, such as France, Austria and the Ottoman Empire, which saw the new monarch as Catherine’s tool. This changed after several interventions of Russian and Prussian diplomats.

M1 Heavy Tractor
|
M1 Heavy Tractor was a term used by the United States Army during World War II for several different models of "off the shelf" civilian tracked tractors adopted for military use. Under the Ordnance Department, these tractors were meant to tow artillery pieces, and were not equipped with blades like their Corps of Engineers counterparts. Later in the war, these tractors were replaced in the prime mover role by heavy trucks such as the Mack NO or purpose-built "High Speed Tractors" such as the M4, M5, or M6. Some tractors were equipped with crane attachments for ammunition and material handling. More than 1,000 were leased to the Soviet Union. They mostly used them to tow 122 mm, 152 mm and even 203 mm guns. It saw good service as a prime mover for artillery.

Super Mutant
|
Super Mutants are a fictional race of posthuman beings from the post-apocalyptic Fallout video game franchise. The Super Mutants were first introduced in 1997's Fallout as the results of human experimentation with a strain of the Forced Evolutionary Virus (FEV), a genetically engineered viral mutagen which transforms the subjects into a hulking monstrous humanoid form. Within series lore, Super Mutants tend to be depicted as savage and innately violent beings who, as a result of their transformations, lost a substantial amount of intelligence and often have cannibalistic tendencies. While Super Mutants tend to form their own factions or societies and are usually hostile to civilized humans, some have chosen to live peacefully alongside humans in settlements across the post-apocalyptic wasteland. Among the most recognizable and integral elements of the Fallout intellectual property (IP), Super Mutants have appeared in every media of the franchise, and have been the subject of numerous fan mods of Fallout series games. Certain individual Super Mutant characters have been well received by critics for their characterization, although the role the Super Mutant race have played throughout the history of the franchise have been the source of contention for some commentators.

Certain individual Super Mutant characters have been well received by critics for their characterization, although the role the Super Mutant race have played throughout the history of the franchise have been the source of contention for some commentators.
## Characteristics
Super Mutants are first introduced in the first *Fallout* as part of an ambitious effort by a grotesque mutated being known as "The Master of the Super Mutants", to create a single, perfect "master race" and remove inequalities which have been the cause of strife among humans. The FEV, an artificially-created virus by a defense contractor and research corporation contracted by the American government, was originally meant to protect against various forms of biological warfare. Subsequent games in the *Fallout* series feature other antagonistic factions that employ different strains of the FEV to create Super Mutants. For example, Vault Tec, the technology company which built the nuclear fallout shelter facilities called Vaults, deliberately exposed the occupants of Vault 87 to a modified strain of the FEV as part of an unethical experiment called the Evolutionary Experimentation Program. The Institute, an elusive faction of scientists in *Fallout 4*, kidnap the inhabitants of the surrounding region and subject their victims to another strain of FEV for experimentation.
The physiology of a Super Mutant is very different compared to ordinary humans; the most immediately noticeable effects are their immense size and strength, their different skin color, and their immunity to radiation damage. A standard Super Mutant's skin tone is usually green or yellow and stands approximately 10.4 feet tall, 7.8 feet when hunching, and weighs around 800 pounds. The Nightkin, an elite Super Mutant caste, have gray-blue colored skin and largely retain their pre-existing intellect unlike their lesser brethren. They are often equipped with cloaking devices known as "Stealth Boys" and developed schizophrenia from prolonged use. Other varieties of Super Mutants encountered in *Fallout 3* and *Fallout 4* grow much larger when they age. An immensely large variety first introduced in *Fallout 3*, the Behemoth, stands at roughly 20 feet tall and can grow up to 30 feet in height.
In comparison to the series' other notable mutated beings like ghouls, Super Mutants are very formidable opponents in combat. Behemoths in particular are capable of overpowering opponents like Deathclaws and hordes of Feral Ghouls with little difficulty, and are unexpectedly nimble for their size. In spite of their physically impressive qualities, Super Mutants are sterile and cannot reproduce as the gametes of the reproductive system consist of "half-cells" using split DNA, which could be perceived as "damage" by the FEV, and in the attempt to "repair" them, it would render the subject infertile.
## Development
According to producer Tim Cain, the *Fallout* development team conceived of a faction of mutants who grow their ranks by dipping people into virus vats. During the discussion, a team member wondered what would happen if more than one person was dropped into the vat. The team decided to conceptualize such a being as the "Master of the Super Mutants", who would switch between three voices: male, female, and electronic. The Master's birth surname, Moreau, references the titular mad scientist of the 1896 novel *The Island of Doctor Moreau* by H. G. Wells, who leads a group of genetically altered beings he has created through unethical experiments.
Concept artist Adam Adamowicz was responsible for conceptualizing the *Fallout 3* iteration of the Super Mutant, in particular the Behemoth variant. In a 2008 developmental diary titled "Conceptual Design", Adamowicz said he was inspired by a line of dialogue from the 1974 film *Blazing Saddles* about the dim-witted but strong and tough character Mongo. Adamowicz wanted the game's Super Mutants to look like "they would step into a tree shredder, for relaxation.". He described their musculature to be straining at the bone structure underneath, evoking a caricature of a person with well developed muscles "in the throes of radioactive testosterone poisoning, and liking it". The armor and equipment used by the Super Mutants of *Fallout 3* are predominantly based on salvaged material, such as car hoods and fenders crudely pounded into chest plates and pauldrons, and lawn mower blades welded onto helmets. The idea behind this design approach is to show recognizable real world elements being twisted to a more violent purpose, which conveys a sinister resourcefulness by these creatures to survive in a highly dangerous post-apocalyptic world.
Adamowicz noted that his “junkyard wars” approach to designing the Super Mutants' armor and weapons inspired a number outlandish designs for homemade weapons, with some of them implemented in the final game. Adamowicz incorporated numerous visual gags into the character design for the Behemoths; examples given include their wielding of parking meters as if they are police batons and carrying their victims bound by shopping carts on their backs, which they will occasionally consume when they get hungry.
Obsidian Entertainment, the developers of *Fallout: New Vegas*, initially considered allowing players the opportunity to play as a ghoul or a Super Mutant for their protagonist in *New Vegas*. The team faced technical limitations as *New Vegas* shared the same engine as *Fallout 3*, and the developers realized that the game engine's equipment system would not work properly for player characters which use non-human character models after Bethesda provided advice discouraging the addition of the proposed feature. Modiphius founder Chris Birch said the inclusion of Super Mutants as a playable race in the officially licensed *Fallout* tabletop roleplaying game, developed by his company, to be part of their design decision to make the game "authentically *Fallout*".
## Appearances
Super Mutants have appeared in every *Fallout* video game as both hostile antagonists and supporting non-player characters, beginning with 1997's *Fallout* which takes place after a global nuclear war had destroyed most of human civilization a century earlier. Information about how the "Master of Super Mutants" raised an army of Super Mutants is picked up throughout gameplay prior to the player's final confrontation with the character in the cathedral. The Master was originally a human named Richard Moreau who was exiled from Vault City as a murder suspect. He changed his surname to Grey and migrated to a merchant town called the Hub, where he became a physician. Grey met a trader named Harold in 2102, and they formed a joint expedition to discover the source of the mutant attacks on Harold's caravans. This led them to Mariposa Military Base, where the expedition group is overwhelmed by mutant forces. Grey is knocked into a vat of the Forced Evolutionary Virus (F.E.V.), which mutated him into a blob-like creature that expanded himself by absorbing other humans.
After a month of simmering, Grey crawled out of the vat and installed himself inside a vault. Driven insane and severely mutated, he decided that humanity was inept and had to be replaced by a master race. Through his experimentations on humans with the F.E.V., the Master managed to create a race of virtually immortal monsters that were immune to disease and radiation. Deeming Super Mutants to be the superior race, the Master went on a campaign to replace all the humans with the Super Mutants by infecting them with the virus. To accomplish this, the Master created a cult called the Children of the Cathedral as a front for his campaign, using aliases such as the "Holy Flame" or "Father Hope" when dealing with his followers.
When the player engages the Master near the end of the game, they can confront the Master with a number of different skills and approaches. The player can enter combat with the Master and his Super Mutant allies. The player can also convince the Master to abandon his plans by revealing to him that Super Mutants are sterile, a revelation that causes the Master to commit suicide. Skipping the confrontation entirely, the player can sneak into his chambers and find a hidden nuclear arsenal that can blow up the cathedral, killing the Master and his Super Mutant associates. The player also has the option of joining the Master's campaign, which will lead to a bad ending in which Vault 13 is raided by Super Mutants.
Following the death of the Master in the canonical ending of the original *Fallout*, the Super Mutant remnants of his organization are hunted by the Brotherhood of Steel, who would label them "Frankenstein's Monsters" as a derogatory term. Survivors scatter from their base of operations beneath a cathedral and go their separate ways to find a new purpose: many resort to becoming raiders and resume their violent ways against baseline humanity, while some individuals congregate together in non-violent communities and attempt to live in peace with humans and ghouls.
Players could recruit Super Mutant characters as traveling companions or allies in the sequel to 1997's *Fallout*. Noteworthy companion characters throughout the series include Marcus in *Fallout 2*, Fawkes in *Fallout 3*, Lily Bowen in *Fallout: New Vegas*, and Strong in *Fallout 4*. Super Mutants are available as a playable race in the *Fallout* tabletop roleplaying game released in 2021. Super Mutants make a brief appearance in the 2024 American post-apocalyptic drama television series *Fallout*.
## Promotion and reception
Super Mutants are a recognizable element of the *Fallout* franchise. Some characters are particularly popular with players. Fawkes from *Fallout 3* was among the top-voted characters in a RPG character poll organized by Justin Davis and Lucas Thomas of *IGN* in 2014. Super Mutant characters and their physiology are also the subject of popular works derived from fan labor, such as mods, music videos and fan films. They have been featured as part of a range of *Fallout*-themed Funko Pop toys.
On the other hand, the portrayal of Super Mutants following the transition of the series' ownership to Bethesda have been a source of contention for some fans. Story elements introduced in *Fallout 3* contradicted lore in the first *Fallout*, developed by series creators Interplay Entertainment, which established that Super Mutants were originally created by the Master in 2103, while the Vault 87 FEV experiment took place in 2078. In a report about the *Fallout* fansite, *No Mutants Allowed*, Luke Winkie from *Kotaku* highlighted criticism from community members about the creative and design decisions in video games developed by Bethesda Game Studios: one aspect of contention involved the ubiquity of Super Mutants as ordinary "mob bad guys" in the early game levels of *Fallout 3*, which departed from the perspective of escalation presented in the original games' stories, gameplay mechanics and setting. The presence of Super Mutants in *Fallout 76* also proved to be a controversial retcon with series fandom, as the game established that its iteration of Super Mutants is native to the region and thus unrelated to the Super Mutants in previous games.
Commenting on Adamowicz's developer diary post in 2008, Joseph Leray from *Destructoid* praised the creative vision and art style for the Super Mutants of *Fallout 3* as "delightfully twisted", and said these aesthetic elements were key ingredients "that makes post-apocalyptic stories work". Some of the best side quests in *Fallout 4* according to *The Escapist's* Ron Whitaker involve conflicts with Super Mutants, with one that culminates in the recruitment of Strong as a companion character noted to be a highlight by Whitaker. Some individual Super Mutant characters have received critical acclaim. For example, the Nightkin character Lily Bowen has been praised for her characterization and has appeared in "top" character lists, including *Polygon's* "The 70 best video game characters of the decade". In a paper published by the University of Leicester, Conor Appleton scaled an ordinary Super Mutant up to the size of a Behemoth and used dimensional analysis to determine the plausibility and viability of such a creature's existence. After examining the Behemoth's physiology using in-universe data and discussing how it may be affected by gravity, Appleton concluded that it is unlikely that such a creature would survive in reality.
