Blésois (or Blaisois in older maps) is a natural region of France located around the city of Blois (Loir-et-Cher). This term also refers to the locals living there. Historically, Blésois was part of the County of Blois, and from 1498 part of the Orléanais province. Situation This natural region is located in the center of the Loir-et-Cher department. With Val de Loire orléanais, Val de Loire tourangeau and Val d'Anjou, it is part of a larger natural region called Val de Loire. Blésois is between the following natural regions: In the North, Beauce and Val de Loire orléanais; In the East, Sologne; In the South, Val de Loire tourangeau; In the East, Gâtine tourangelle. Terminology The word “Blésois” comes from the name given by Romans to the surroundings: pagus Blesensi, and seems to derivate itself from the celtic word bleiz, meaning “wolf”. As a result, Blésois was originally the “land of wolves”, even though this animal disappeared in this region. By analogy, this refers to a local dialect too. The spelling "Blaisois" was once correct, but it has to be avoided since it can be confused with the Blaise river surroundings. Local wild fauna References Loir-et-Cher Geography of France

Snake Island (), a Ukrainian island in the Black Sea, was attacked on 24 February 2022 during the early stages of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Background Snake Island is a small rocky island off the southern coast of Ukraine, strategically located off Romania and at the edge of Ukrainian territorial waters in the Black Sea. The territorial waters surrounding the island were disputed by Romania and Ukraine from 2004 to 2009, when the International Court of Justice (ICJ) awarded most of them to Romania. It was during this period that Ukraine founded the island's only settlement, Bile, in 2007 to prove the status of Snake Island as an inhabitable island and gain leverage in the dispute. In August 2021, as Russian forces built up around Ukraine, Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a press event on the island, during which he said: "This island, like the rest of our territory, is Ukrainian land, and we will defend it with all our might." Attack On 24 February 2022, the first day of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Ukrainian State Border Guards announced about 18:00 local time that Snake Island had come under attack by Russian Navy ships. The cruiser Moskva and patrol boat Vasily Bykov bombarded the island with their deck guns. When the Russian warship identified itself and instructed the Ukrainian soldiers stationed on the island to surrender, their response was "Russian warship, go fuck yourself" (). An audio clip of the exchange was first shared by Ukrainian government official Anton Herashchenko, then widely distributed by the Ukrayinska Pravda, and later verified as authentic by Ukrainian government sources. One Ukrainian soldier live-streamed the moment that the Russian warship opened fire. Later in the evening, the State Border Guard Service said that communication with the island had been lost. At 22:00 (01:00 Moscow Time, UTC+2), service officials announced that Russian forces had captured the island following a naval and air bombardment that destroyed all infrastructure on the island. After the bombardment, a detachment of Russian soldiers landed and took control of Snake Island. The Russian government reported that on 25 February 2022, a squadron of sixteen boats of the Ukrainian Navy attacked Russian vessels off Snake Island, also claiming that it sank six of the Ukrainian boats. The Russian government further accused the United States of providing intelligence support to the Ukrainian squadron during the action. The United States denied any involvement. On 26 February 2022, Ukrainian authorities announced that the civilian search and rescue ship Sapphire was captured by the Russian navy off Snake Island. Reporting Ukrainian government sources initially stated that 13 border guards, representing the entirety of the Ukrainian military presence on the island, were killed after refusing to surrender. The State Border Guard Service of Ukraine later announced that the guards might instead have been captured, based on Russian reports that they were being held as prisoners of war in Sevastopol. Russian defence media presented an alternate version of events, claiming that 82 Ukrainian soldiers were taken prisoner after surrendering voluntarily. Russian ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov claimed that the prisoners have been signing pledges promising not to continue military action against Russia and will be released soon. On 28 February 2022, the Ukrainian Navy posted on its Facebook page that all the border guards of the island were alive and detained by the Russian Navy. Reaction The Ukrainian border guards' final words before being captured, "Russian warship, go fuck yourself!", went viral and became a rallying cry for Ukrainians and their supporters around the world. The Week compared the phrase to "Remember the Alamo" from the 19th century Texas Revolution. On the day of the attack, before it was known that the guards survived, Zelenskyy announced that all thirteen of them would posthumously be awarded the title Hero of Ukraine, the highest Ukrainian military honor. The President of Ukraine has not commented on whether the titles would still be awarded after the guards were found alive.

David H. Johnston (August 19, 1838 - September 12, 1931) was an American soldier and recipient of the Medal of Honor who received the medal for his actions in the American Civil War. Biography Johnston was born in Indiana County, Pennsylvania on August 19, 1838, to David Johnston and Margaret Johnston. He served as a private in Company K of the 8th Missouri Volunteer Infantry during the American Civil War. He earned his medal in action at the Battle of Vicksburg, Mississippi on May 22, 1863.

Johnston's pension check was mistaken by the War Department for H. Johnston's pension check, who had not applied for a pension that year. Johnston only requested a pension in 1907. The mistake was discovered in 1966 when a newspaper published a list of recipients and Johnston was absent. Johnston married Nancy Jane in 1872. The couple had eight children.

On the morning of 24 February, Russian Armed Forces entered the oblast and were engaged by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Ukraine's military command and political government is based in the oblast. Timeline 24 February On the morning of 24 February, Russian artillery and missiles struck targets in Kyiv Oblast including Kyiv's primary airport – Boryspil International Airport. Later that morning, Russian forces crossed the border into Ukraine from Belarus to the north. In the Battle of Chernobyl they captured Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant, which is located close to the border. Later in the day, Russian paratroopers landed at Hostomel Airport, beginning the Battle of Antonov Airport. According to Ukrainian officials, Russian paratroopers were later repelled by Ukrainian troops. Russian forces have also attempted landings in and around the Kyiv Reservoir. According to British officials, Russian forces attempted to take the city of Chernihiv on 24 February. After Ukrainian forces held them back, Russian forces laid siege to the city, while some Russian mechanized forces bypassed the city altogether. On the night of 24 February, the president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, stated that "subversive groups" were approaching Kyiv. That night, United States Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said during a conversation with congresspeople that some Russian mechanized infantry units had advanced to within of Kyiv. 25 February On the morning of 25 February, the Russian Air Force continued its bombardment of the capital city, bombing central Kyiv. A Ukrainian Su-27 fighter jet was later shot down over Kyiv; the plane crashed into a nine-story apartment complex, setting the building ablaze. At 06:47 (GMT+2), a Ukrainian army unit detonated a bridge over the Teteriv River near Ivankiv, halting a Russian tank column advancing from Chernobyl. The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine later said that Ukrainian airborne assault soldiers have engaged the Russians in a skirmish at Ivankiv and Dymer. At mid-morning, Russian saboteurs dressed as Ukrainian soldiers had entered Obolon District, an area in the northern portion of Kyiv that is about from the Verkhovna Rada. Throughout the day during the Battle of Kyiv, gunfire was heard throughout several wards of the city; Ukrainian officials described the gunfire as arising from clashes with Russian troops. Some Russian soldiers were able to break through the Ukrainian defense at Ivankiv, though that battle continued throughout the day. According to Russia's Ministry of Defense, these Russian forces were able to advance and capture Hostomel Airport after a ground-based assault, creating a key landing zone for Russian forces just from Kyiv. Zelenskyy urged citizens to fight back with Molotov cocktails. The reserve Territorial Defense Forces were activated to defend the capital. 18,000 guns were also distributed to residents of Kyiv who were willing to fight. 26 February In the early morning of 26 February, Russian paratroopers began landing in the city of Vasylkiv, just south of Kyiv, in order to capture the Vasylkiv Air Base. In the ensuing battle, heavy fighting began over control of the city. Ukrainian officials claim that at 01:30, a Ukrainian Su-27 fighter jet shot down a Russian Ilyushin Il-76 carrying paratroopers over Vasylkiv. Later, two American officials said that a second Russian Il-76 had been shot down over the nearby city of Bila Tserkva. Despite Ukrainian anti-aircraft action, elements of Russian paratroopers were able to land to the south of Kyiv around Vasylkiv and made contact with troops of the home guard forces. At 7:30, Ukrainian officials reported that the defenders, supported by airpower, had successfully repulsed the paratroopers. Russian forces began formally assaulting Kyiv later in the early morning, bombarding the city with artillery and attempting to capture a power plant and army base within the city. Ukrainian forces were able to defend both objectives. Mayor of Vasylkiv, Natalia Balasinovich said her city had been successfully defended by Ukrainian forces and the fighting was ending. The Kyiv Hydroelectric Power Plant, located just north of the city in the suburb of Vyshhorod, was captured by Russian forces. On 26 February, Ukrainian forces recaptured the power plant. Ukrainian air defenses also allegedly intercepted a missile aimed for the plant. Interfax stated that if the plant's dam were to fail, flooding could destroy "the entire left bank of Kyiv". 27 February In the early morning of 27 February, a Russian missile struck an oil depot in Vasylkiv, setting the facility ablaze. A radioactive waste disposal site near Kyiv was also hit by airstrikes, but the storage site itself escaped the impact. Concurrently, there were reports of fighting occurring in Kalynivka; however, it is unclear whether this is referring to the Kyivan suburb or the Vasylkivan suburb, as both share the same name. Later in the early morning, the Ukrainian army claimed to have destroyed a Kadyrovtsy convoy of 56 tanks in Hostomel and allegedly killed Chechen General Magomed Tushayev. Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, however, claimed Tushayev was alive and published a video showing him along with Anzor Bisaev, another Chechen commander. In the morning of 27 February, a Russian airstrike struck an apartment building in the small city of Bucha, located just south of Hostomel.

Videos later emerged on social media showing destroyed armor and several dead soldiers. Later on 27 February, a large Russian convoy was seen on satellite images heading towards Ivankiv. The Russian forces that bypassed Chernihiv on 24 February began approaching Kyiv from the northeast. Kyiv's mayor Vitali Klitschko told the Associated Press that Kyiv had been completely encircled, making evacuation of citizens impossible. He however later backtracked from his comments. His office stated that he was speaking figuratively. According to The Guardian, roads leading out of Kyiv from the south were free of Russian forces. 28 February A Ukrainian official stated that in the early morning of 28 February, a column of Russian military equipment was destroyed in the village of Makariv, located to the west of Kyiv.

The Justus Bissing Jr. Historic District, in Hays, Kansas in Ellis County, Kansas, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004. The district includes two contributing buildings: the 1920 Justus Bissing Jr. house, Craftsman in style with Prairie School influences, and the c. 1932 Tower Service station, built in a house-type plan with elements of Queen Anne style, both built by Justus Bissing Jr. Mr. Bissing was of a Volga German family which came to Ellis County in 1874, and grew up on a farm north of Catharine, Kansas, which is near Hays. While the corner of Elm Street and West 12th Street would be a more natural location for a gas station, the stately Craftsman home was built by Justus Bissing Jr. at the corner first, in 1920, built of brick and stone and relatively unmoveable. So when the "craftsman, inventor and entrepreneur" chose to build a gas station for his son to operate, on the property, that was placed adjacent, fronting only on West 12th Street.

The basis of the sonar consisted of submersible GAS MG-322 Argun (operated in echo direction-finding mode) and lowered GAS MG-339 Shelon in the stern superstructure, which operated only in the "stop" mode. The basis of anti-submarine weapons were located two twin torpedo tubes for DTA-5E-1124 and two RBU-6000 on the bow of the ship's superstructure. Construction of small anti-submarine ships on Project 1124 began in 1967 at the Zelenodolsk Shipyard.

The Antico Stabilimento Balneare (Ancient Bathing Establishment) located in Mondello, a seaside borough north of Palermo, Sicily, is a art noveau or Liberty-style building atop piers of the beach in the town. The term balneare is related to the Spanish and Portuguese Balneario which is either a swimming or beach establishment, but also with affinities to spas, with amenities such as changing rooms, cabanas, bathrooms, and eating establishments. The present structure with colorful and fanciful decorations with turrets and spires was designed by Rudolf Stualker. It stands upon cement pylons embedded in the bay. Originally this structure was intended for the Belgian city of Ostend. The beachfront area of Mondello until the end of the 19th century was a malaria-afflicted swamp, with a seashore used by fishermen. Drained during the last decade of 1890, much of the area was leased to a Belgian company, Les Tramways de Palerme, who not only established a trolley connecting this suburb to Palermo, but electrified the area, which became populated with pleasure villas. This company financed construction of the structure, built with reinforced concrete, and it was inaugurated in 1912. Construction was performed by the firm of Giovanni Rutelli, son of the sculptor Mario Rutelli. The interior furniture was designed by the firm of Vittorio Ducrot and Ernesto Basile.

The Battle of Kherson is an ongoing military engagement which began on 24 February 2022, as part of the Kherson offensive during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Battle 24 February Russian forces invaded Kherson Oblast from the south through Crimea. By the evening of 24 February, Russian forces reached the city of Kherson and had secured the Antonovskiy Bridge, which would give them a strategic crossing over the Dnieper River and towards the important junction city of Mykolaiv. 25 February By the early hours of 25 February, Ukrainian forces recaptured the bridge. The battle was described as being very fierce and left dead soldiers as well as several destroyed military vehicles lying on the bridge. This forced the Russian forces to push north to the next closest crossing of the Dnieper, the city of Nova Kakhovka, which they captured. Later on 25 February, Russian troops once again seized the Antonovskiy Bridge. 26 February On 26 February, according to mayor Igor Kolykhaev, Russian troops pulled back from Kherson after a Ukrainian air strike on Russian armored vehicles, leaving the city under Ukrainian control. A Ukrainian official later claimed that a Russian army column was defeated by Ukrainian forces near the town of Oleshky, just south of Kherson. The Ukrainian Prosecutor General, Iryna Venediktova, claimed that on 26 February, Russian forces killed a journalist and ambulance driver near the village of Zelenivka, a northern suburb of Kherson. 27 February On the morning of 27 February, the Russian Ministry of Defense stated that the Russian military had encircled the city and, according to Ukrainian officials, Russian forces captured a part of the city, including Kherson International Airport. Later in the morning, the Ukrainian Air Force allegedly conducted a successful drone strike against Russian forces in the village of Chornobayivka, just to the north of Kherson. Ukrainian officials allege that beginning on 27 February, Russian forces began moving civilians from nearby villages towards Kherson, in what Ukrainian forces claim is an attempt by the Russians to use civilians as human shields. 1 March In the early morning of 1 March, Ukrainian officials claimed that Russian forces had begun assaulting Kherson and were advancing from the Kherson International Airport to the highway between Kherson and Mykolaiv. The Russian forces surrounded the city and reached the highway, advancing up to the village of Komyshany before setting up a checkpoint. Video footage surfaced showing Russian troops patrolling the streets of Kherson. References Battles of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine Battles in 2022 History of Kherson Oblast

The Mercedes-Benz turbocharged V6 F1 engine (formally known as the Mercedes-Benz PU engine from 2014 to 2016; the Mercedes-AMG Mxx EQ Power+ from 2017 to 2019; the Mercedes-AMG Mxx EQ/E Performance from 2020 to 2021; and the Mercedes-AMG F1 M13 for 2022) is a 1.6-liter, hybrid turbocharged V6 racing engine developed and produced by Mercedes-AMG High Performance Powertrains for Formula One since 2014. The engine itself is coupled with an energy recovery system hybrid unit, and all evolutions and newer iterations of the power unit are based on the same basic hybrid architecture that has existed since 2014. Background The new Formula One regulations in saw Mercedes produce a hybrid 1.6-liter turbocharged V6 engine, which features both a kinetic energy recovery system and a heat energy recovery system. The Mercedes engine started the season with a clear advantage, with Mercedes-engined cars scoring the majority of the points. Since the introduction of the new engine formula, Mercedes-powered cars have achieved pole position in 120 out of 160 races as of the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, and have won 113 out of 160 races during this period. Statistics Other applications Mercedes-AMG One The powertrain of the Mercedes-AMG ONE is expected to be rated at through a hybrid drivetrain that shares many features with modern Formula One cars. The car has five motors with different functions on board: one internal combustion engine (ICE) and four electric motors. It is based on a modified version of the Mercedes-Benz PU106C Hybrid E-turbo V6, used in the 2016 Mercedes F1 W07 Hybrid Formula One car. Modifications will be done to the engine due to the engine's illegality in RPM idle and redline. The head of Mercedes-AMG, Tobias Moers, states that the engine will be at 1,280 rpm when idle, and at 11,000 rpm when at its redline limit. However, the engine will only last for and the owners will have to return their cars for engine refurbishment. The ICE produces , with torque figures still unknown. The top speed of this car is around 217 mph (350 km/h). The internal combustion engine will work in conjunction with four electric motors: a Motor Generator Unit-Kinetic (MGU-K) coupled to the crankshaft, a Motor Generator Unit-Heat (MGU-H) coupled to the turbocharger, and two electric motors at the front axle. The MGU-K and MGU-H are Formula One-style motors responsible for recovering energy and improving efficiency during operation of the car. More specifically, the MGU-K serves to generate electricity during braking, while the MGU-H serves to eliminate turbocharger lag and improve throttle response by keeping the turbine spinning at high speeds. The final two electric motors drive the front wheels to allow for an all-wheel drive drivetrain, and the sum of these four electric motors will contribute effective power to the total power output figure of the ONE.

The Ghost of Kyiv () is the nickname given to a disputed and unconfirmed MiG-29 Fulcrum flying ace credited with shooting down six Russian planes in the Kyiv offensive on 24 February 2022. According to the Security Service of Ukraine, he has shot down 10 Russian jets as of 27 February. Although not confirmed to be real, the Ghost of Kyiv has been credited as a morale booster for Ukrainians. History Videos on social media began widely circulating of fighter jets in Ukraine on the first day of the Russian invasion in February 2022, shortly after the invasion started, claiming of a single pilot who took down multiple Russian jets. A possible or legendary pilot of a МіG-29, nicknamed the "Ghost of Kyiv" by the Ukrainian public, supposedly won six air fights in the sky of Kyiv during the first 30 hours of the invasion. The six planes are reported as two Su-35s, two Su-25s, a Su-27 and a МіG-29. If the ace does exist, they would be the first recorded fighter ace of the 21st century, as well as an Ace in a Day. The Ukrainian Ministry of Defence claims that, should the downings be confirmed, the Ghost of Kyiv could be one of dozens of experienced pilots of military reserve who urgently returned to the Armed Forces of Ukraine after Russia invaded. In a tweet, it referred to the Ghost of Kyiv as "the air avenger". However, in a claim by Ukrainian commander-in-chief Valerii Zaluzhnyi, he said he could only confirm a total of six Russian planes downed on the first day of fighting in Ukraine, though there may have been more. Former Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko posted a tweet of a photograph of a fighter pilot, claiming it to be the Ghost of Kyiv, who Poroshenko said was real. The photo was later discovered to have been reused from a Ministry of Defense post from 2019 showing a pilot testing a new helmet. Although the Ghost of Kyiv is likely an urban legend, his status has been credited as a major morale boost for the Ukrainian population. On 27 February, the Security Service of Ukraine confirmed in a Facebook post that the Ghost of Kyiv has shot down 10 aircraft. This is currently the only official source about the Ghost of Kyiv. No other news outlet has independently verified the claim at this time. Morale The Ghost of Kyiv has been credited as a morale booster for Ukrainians, to bolster optimism in the face of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. The urban legend is likely not a deliberate creation, with the stories being shared by regular Ukrainian people on social media before official Ukrainian media accounts alluded to the pilot in a regular update. Computer-generated footage of a dogfight and downing featuring the Ghost of Kyiv has been made using the 2013 video game Digital Combat Simulator and uploaded by a YouTube user. The uploader openly stated in the description that the footage was not real and was merely a tribute to the Ghost of Kyiv, real or fake, to keep fighting. The video was also shared by the official Twitter account of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The video was then uploaded to Twitter and spread widely, with Snopes clarifying that it was faked. Newsweek reported, "There is zero evidence the "Ghost of Kyiv" exists." Task & Purpose argued that while it was highly unlikely there were even six air-to-air takedowns in total, given their rarity in the 21st century and Ukraine's strong missile defense, the Ghost of Kyiv was "real enough" as the spirit of the Ukrainians. Tom Demerly of The Aviationist argued that the Ghost of Kyiv is an "example of bizarre distortions...amplified by the chaos of war". Similar to the Ghost of Kyiv, on 26 February 2022, social media reports of a Ukrainian ground forces soldier dubbed the "Ukrainian Reaper", who supposedly killed over twenty Russian soldiers in combat alone, emerged.

This list includes cavalry regiments assigned to Corps of the British Army in the period 1916–19. On the outbreak of World War I the establishment of a British infantry division included a cavalry squadron for reconnaissance and escort duties. From 1915 these were primarily provided by mounted units of the Special Reserve or Yeomanry regiments of the Territorial Force. Early in 1916 the divisional cavalry squadrons were transferred to Army Corps level and formed into composite regiments. However, Trench warfare conditions on the Western Front reduced the utility of mounted troops, and in 1917 most of the corps cavalry regiments were dismounted and drafted as infantry reinforcements, converted into corps cyclist battalions or machine gun battalions. A few were reinstated (at squadron strength) during 1918. On the other fighting fronts corps cavalry units continued until demobilisation in 1919. The corps cavalry units formed during the war were as follows: Cavalry Corps Troops: B Squadron 1/1st Hampshire Yeomanry (Carabiniers) (5 September 1916 – 19 January 1917); 1/1st Yorkshire Dragoons (October –6 December 1917) I Corps Cavalry Regiment: 1st South Irish Horse (SIH) (May 1916–August 1917); B Sqn 1st King Edward's Horse (KEH) (from May 1918) II Corps Cavalry Regiment: 1/1st Yorks Dragoons 12 May 1916–October 1917) – transferred to Cavalry Corps; returned as II Corps Cyclist Battalion (from 16 March 1918) III Corps Cavalry Regiment: Regimental Headquarters (RHQ) and D Sqn 1/1st Royal Wiltshire Yeomanry (RWY) (11–20 May 1916); RHQ, C & D Sqns 1/1st Duke of Lancaster's Own Yeomanry (DLOY), C Sqn 1/1st Surrey Yeomanry (May 1916–24 July 1917); C Sqn 1st KEH (from October 1918) III (Tigris) Corps Cavalry Regiment: D Sqn 1/1st Hertfordshire Yeomanry, 1 Sqn 10th Lancers, 2 Sqns 32nd Lancers (2 January–4 March 1917) IV Corps Cavalry Regiment: 1st KEH (1 June 1916 – 17 July 1917; November–15 December 1917); 1/1st Northumberland Hussars (December 1917–8 October 1918) V Corps Cavalry Regiment: RHQ, A & B Sqns 1/1st Queen's Own Royal Glasgow Yeomanry (QORGY), B Sqn 1/1st Lothians and Border Horse (LYBH) (May 1916–June 1917); XIX Corps Cavalry Regiment transferred (7 September 1917) – converted to V Corps Cyclist Battalion (March 1918) VI Corps Cavalry Regiment: 1/1st Northamptonshire Yeomanry (May 1916–summer 1917); B Sqn Herts Yeomanry (12 July 1916–early 1917) – transferred to VIII Corps Cavalry Rgt VII Corps Cavalry Regiment: 1st North Irish Horse (NIH) (10 May 1916 – 16 July 1917) – redesignated XIX Corps Cavalry Rgt VIII Corps Cavalry Regiment: 1/1st Lancashire Hussars (May 1916–July 1917); B Sqn Herts Yeomanry (27 May–6 July 1917) – transferred to Egypt, then XXI Corps Cavalry Rgt IX Corps Cavalry Regiment: A & B Sqns 1/1st RWY (21 June 1916–late November 1916); C Sqn 1/1st Hants Carabiniers (17 June 1916 – 25 July 1917); RHQ 1/1st Hants Carabiniers (17 June 1916 – 25 July 1917); A & B Sqns 1/1st Hants Carabiniers (January 1917–25 July 1917); A & B Sqns SIH (November 1916–16 January 1917) X Corps Cavalry Regiment: C Sqn NIH (11 May 1916–August 1917), S Sqn 6th (Inniskilling) Dragoons and B Sqn NIH (21 June 1916–August 1917) XI Corps Cavalry Regiment: 1/1st Westmorland and Cumberland Yeomanry (less A Sqn) (15 May 1916–21 July 1917); Corps served in Italy from 1 December 1917 to 13 March 1918: 1st KEH (15 December 1917–May 1918; A Sqn remained with corps) XII Corps Cavalry Regiment: In Macedonia: A & D Sqns 1/1st L&BH (from 11 May 1917) XIII Corps Cavalry Regiment: 1/1st Northumberland Hussars (April 1916–August 1917); C Sqn 1st KWH (May–October 1918); 1/1st Northumberland Hussars (returned 1 October 1918) XIV Corps Cavalry Regiment: A & B Sqns 2nd KEH, S Sqn 21st Lancers (June 1916–July 1917); Corps transferred to Italy 5 November 1917: 1/1st Northants Yeomanry (10 November 1917); Corps became GHQ British Force in Italy 18 April 1918 and Corps Cavalry became GHQ Troops XV Corps Cavalry Regiment: A & B Sqns SIH (May–November 1916), C Sqn 1/1st Surrey Yeomanry 11–19 May 1916); 1/1st RWY (November 1916–3 September 1917) XVI Corps Cavalry Regiment: In Macedonia: A & B Sqns 1/1st Surrey Yeomanry (from 27 December 1916) XVII Corps Cavalry Regiment: 1/1st Yorkshire Hussars (May 1916–26 August 1917), B Sqn 1/1st Surrey Yeomanry (8 July–4 September 1916); transferred to Macedonia, then XVI Corps Cavalry Rgt XVIII Corps Cavalry Regiment: A & B Sqns SIH (1 January–August 1917), B Sqn Herts Yeomanry (1 January –27 May 1917), F Sqn (to complete 2nd SIH) (27 May–August 1917); 1st KEH (17 July–November 1917) XIX Corps Cavalry Regiment: 2/1st Northumberland Hussars (23 June–28 August 1917) – transferred to V Corps, replaced by VII Corps Cavalry Regt XX Corps Cavalry Regiment: in Palestine: 1/1st Westminster Dragoons (August 1917–April 1918); 1/1st Worcestershire Yeomanry (from 5 May 1918) XXI Corps Cavalry Regiment: In Palestine: A Sqn 1/1st DLOY, A Sqn 1/1st Herts Yeomanry, C Sqn QORGY (from August 1917); B Sqn 1/1 Herts replaced C Sqn QORGY (9 May 1918) XXII Corps: Not formed until 31 December 1917, no cavalry assigned XXIII Corps: Did not serve overseas XXIV Corps: Never completed formation Notes References Maj A.F.

The flowers are dark red-burgundy with a velvety texture. They are carried mostly solitary on strong, thick stems and bloom in flushes from spring to fall. Flowers have little or no fragrance. Foliage is dark green and glossy. 'Black Baccara' makes an excellent container plant. History Meilland International The Meilland family is a multi-generational family of French rose breeders. The family's first rosarian was gardener, Joseph Rambaux, who first started breeding roses in 1850 in Lyon. He is best known for developing the Polyantha 'Perle d'Or'. His wife, Claudine and son-in-law, Francois Dubreuil, took over the nursery after Rambaux died in 1878. Dubreuil became a successful rose breeder and grower. In 1900, Dubreuil hired sixteen year old, Antoine Meilland, as a gardening assistant, where Meilland worked alongside Dubreuil's daughter, Claudia. Antoine and Claudia married in 1909 and their son, Francis was born in 1912. The couple took over Dubreuil's nursery after his death death in 1916. After World War I, Antoine and Claudia bought property in Tassin-la-Demi-Lune, near Lyon and started a new nursery. Their son, Francis worked at the nursery and eventually took over the nursery. He expanded the rose business over several years into a large, international company, and became the most famous and prolific rose breeder in the family. His legendary 'Peace' rose, brought the family international attention and great commercial success when it was introduced after World War II. The Meilland family merged their business with Francisque Richardier in 1946, so that Francis Meilland could focus solely on breeding roses. After Francis's early death in 1958, his wife Louisette continued to breed roses, introducing many awarding winning new varieties. The new company, Meilland-Richardier grew into Meilland International (AKA House of Meilland), and is located in Le Luc en Provence, France. Francis and Louisette's children, Alain and Michele, were both successful rose breeders for the company. In 1978, Jacques Mouchotte took over the company's rose breeding program, and developed a large number of new rose varieties until his retirement in 2013. Some of his most popular rose varieties are 'Bonica 82', 'Debut', 'Carefree Wonder', and 'Carefree Delight'. Meilland International continues to be 100% family owned and managed. 'Black Baccara' 'Black Baccara' was developed by Jacques Mouchotte before 2000 by crossing the two dark red Hybrid teas, 'Celica' and 'Fuego Negro'. The rose cultivar was introduced in France by Meilland International in 2000. It was also However, it was introduced in America by Star Roses and Plants/Conard-Pyle in 2002. 'Black Baccara' was used to hybridize one child plant, Rosa 'Vampire', before 2012. References Black Baccara 2000 introductions

Mard-i Imruz (Persian: The Man of Today) was a Persian language weekly newspaper which was in circulation between 1942 and 1948. It was based in Tehran, Iran. The paper was among the opposition publications of the period. History and period Mard-i Imruz was established by Mohammad Masud who was the license holder, and the first issue appeared on 20 August 1942. The paper was headquartered in Tehran. It was subject to bans due to its critical approach towards the Iranian government and its tendency to make blackmail to the rich. Political cartoons were frequently used in the paper to express the opposition to the authorities. In 1943 Mard-i Imruz was made the official organ of the Paikar Party and involved in the establishment of the Independent Front in 1944. Next year in October the license of the paper was revoked which was renewed in April 1946. Then the paper stopped its attacks against the authorities until March 1947 when the harsh criticisms of the paper appeared again. Then Masud was arrested, and Mard-i Imruz was closed down for two weeks. In October 1947 Masud publicly argued in the paper that Prime Minister Ahmad Qavam should be murdered due to the oil concession deal with the Soviet Union. The paper ceased publication on 14 February 1948 the day after the assassination of Mohammad Masud.

Ocellularia upretii is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling) lichen in the family Graphidaceae. It is found in India. Taxonomy The lichen was formally described as a new species in 2018 by Santosh Joshi, Pradeep Divakar, H. Thorsten Lumbsch, and Robert Lücking. The type was collected in the Shimoga District of central Western Ghats. The specific epithet upretii honours Indian lichenologist Dalip Kumar Upreti, "on the occasion of his retirement". Description Ocellularia upretii has a greyish green to olivaceous green thallus with a well-developed cortex. The ascomata are numerous and scattered throughout the thallus, some immersed in the surface and some more prominent; all have rounded to oval pores. The proper exciple (the margin of the apothecium, lacking algal cells) is reddish brown. The ascospores have between 10 and 20 thick septa that section the spore transversely; the spores measure 100–125 by 15–25 μm. No secondary compounds were detected in the lichen using thin-layer chromatography, and all of the standard chemical spot tests are negative. Ocellularia allosporoides is a similar species that is phylogenetically distinct; unlike the substance-free O. upretii, it contains norisonotatic acid and norsubnotatic acid in its thallus. Distribution Ocellularia upretii is widespread in evergreen forests of the Western Ghats, and tropical rainforests of Andaman and Nicobar Islands and the Eastern Himalayas.

The 1966 Dayton race riot (also known as the Dayton uprising) was a period of civil unrest in Dayton, Ohio, United States. The riot occurred on September 1 and lasted about 24 hours, ending after the Ohio National Guard had been mobilized. It was the largest race riot in Dayton's history and one of several to occur during the 1960s. Through the 1900s, Dayton experienced significant racial tensions due to the white population's discrimination of African Americans in the city. By the mid-1960s, it was one of the most segregated cities in the United States, with most of its African American population living in the impoverished west side of the city, described by the Dayton Daily News as "a ghetto with neglected schools and discriminatory city services". By 1966, the area had experienced several race-related riots. That year, in the early morning of September 1, Lester Mitchell, an African American man, was shot and killed in a drive-by, with eyewitnesses saying that it had been a white assailant. Following this, largescale rioting had begun by 10 a.m., primarily affecting west Dayton before moving into the city's downtown. By 10:30 a.m., the mayor of Dayton arrived at the scene of the rioting and stated that he had requested the governor of Ohio to mobilize the National Guard to restore order. Additionally, a curfew was enacted, some businesses were closed, and the several hundred police attempted to blockade west Dayton. The National Guard arrived at around 3 p.m., but by that time much of the rioting had ended. In the aftermath of the rioting, one person had died, 30 had been injured, and over 100 had been arrested. The riot caused about $250,000 in property damage, primarily to African American-owned businesses in west Dayton. Following the riot, the area began to decline economically, with many businesses either not reopening or relocating elsewhere. Additionally, the city's racial issues were exacerbated in the following years with additional race riots (including two in 1967 and the King assassination riots in 1968) and increased white flight to the surrounding area. Speaking about the issue in 2016, former Dayton Mayor Rhine McLin stated that west Dayton had been "punished" by city officials because of the riot and had peaked economically in the years immediately preceding the riot. As of 2016, Dayton is among the most segregated major metropolitan areas in the United States. Background The 1960s in the United States was a period that saw several large race riots in major cities. This wave of riots began in New York City with the Harlem riot of 1964 and were followed the next year by the Watts riots in Los Angeles, which is regarded as one of the most destructive riots to occur in the country in the 1900s. These riots were often due to underlying social issues facing African American communities in these large cities and, according to academic Jonathon A. Cooper, were often triggered by "a confrontation between blacks and the police over a relatively trivial matter". In the city of Dayton, Ohio, racial tensions had grown through the mid-1900s, with many African Americans segregated from the white population of the city. In 1966, the city was one of the most segregated in the United States, with about 60,000 African Americans (about 96 percent of Dayton's African American population) living in west Dayton due to housing segregation. The area was an impoverished part of the city, with a 2016 article in the Dayton Daily News describing it as "what many perceived as a ghetto with neglected schools and discriminatory city services". A 1966 article in the Dayton Daily News identified four main issues that African American community leaders had with regards to west Dayton, which included worse educational opportunities than white schools offered, joblessness, lack of access to home loans due to discrimination, and a lack of concern for the neighborhood residents from city leaders. While there had been some integration in the previous years, such as the election of Dayton's first African American board of education member and city commissioner in 1952 and 1961, respectively, some in the west side felt that the progress was occurring too slowly. In 1963, some white residents of Madison Township (a suburb of Dayton) rioted after a black family moved into their neighborhood, which was suppressed by riot police. At about 3 a.m. on the morning of September 1, 1966, Lester Mitchell, a 39-year-old African American man, was shot while sweeping the sidewalk in front of his bar on West Fifth Street, located in a busy business district in west Dayton. Mitchell was taken to a hospital and shortly thereafter died. Sources varied to some extent on the killing, with one eyewitness stating that it was a white man driving a red car in a drive-by shooting, though it was unsure if it was a single man or a group of men involved. Riot By 10 a.m., the killing of Mitchell had precipitated one of the earliest race riots in Dayton's history, with looting and rioting primarily occurring in west Dayton. While Mitchell's murder had been the primary cause of the riot, other causes included underlying issues that had impacted Dayton's African American community, such as high unemployment, poor housing, and a lack of dialogue with city leaders. Additionally, the rioting had been inflamed by a police investigation wherein they stated that a drive-by shooting would have been impossible. During this time, rioters through projectiles such as bottles and rocks at vehicles driven by or carrying white Americans, with a reporter from The Journal Herald reporting that the crowd was chanting, "Kill! Kill! Kill!". One white truck driver suffered a fractured jaw after a projectile came through the windshield of his vehicle. Over 100 protesters were involved, and while 225 police officers set up a blockade around west Dayton, they were given orders to not engage with the rioters. Soon, the rioting had spread into downtown Dayton, leading to more property damage in that area. During this time, some African American men sought to defuse the situation by attempting to negotiate concessions with Dayton's city manager and police chief, requesting that some of the protesters who had been arrested be released and that two white police officers who patrolled west Dayton be removed from that beat. While the city officials agreed to these changes, it did little to hamper the rioting. C. J. McLin, who would later be elected as a member of the Ohio House of Representatives, was one of the people who negotiated with the city officials. By 10:30 a.m., Dayton Mayor Dave Hall had arrived at the scene of the rioting. Police stationed there had armed themselves with shotguns borrowed from nearby pawn shops. Speaking to the crowd via a police car bullhorn, Hall notified them that he had requested the governor of Ohio to deploy members of the Ohio National Guard to subdue this "disturbance of the peace". Governor Jim Rhodes, who was at the Ohio State Fair when he received Hall's request, approved it and deployed 1,000 soldiers. At around 12:40 a.m., Hall ordered that bars and restaurants in west Dayton be closed. Additionally, liquor stores were closed, a curfew for everyone under the age of 15 was enacted, some city services were temporarily suspended, and trains were rerouted. By 3 p.m., the National Guard had arrived in Dayton, led by Adjutant General Erwin Hostetler and composed of men from the nearby municipalities of Blanchester, Covington, Eaton, Middletown, and Xenia. However, by the time of their arrival, much of the rioting had ended. Guardsmen patrolled the city in Jeeps armed with .50-caliber machine guns, while Hostetler made a tour of the city in an unmarked police car without any violent incidents, noting only signs of property damage. In total, rioting lasted for about 24 hours. Aftermath In the immediate aftermath of the rioting, one death and 30 injuries. Sources vary on the total number of arrests made during the rioting, but there were over 100 total. Public safety costs associated with the riot were approximately $20,000, while the cost of the property damage was about $250,000, which mostly affected African American-owned businesses. The riot garnered national attention because U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson had been scheduled to speak at a Labor Day ceremony in Dayton the following weekend. The Dayton Daily News would later describe the riot as "one of the city's worst race riots" and "one of the worst riots in Dayton's history". In the years that followed, Dayton would be home to several more race riots, including two in 1967 (one following a speech by civil rights activist H. Rap Brown and another following the police killing of an African American man) and one in 1968 as part of the nationwide King assassination riots. However, of all these, the 1966 riot was the largest. Nationwide, 1966 saw numerous race riots similar to the one in Dayton, with about 44 major American cities experiencing race riots, resulting in seven deaths and about 400 injuries. However, Dayton was one of only five cities, along with Cleveland, Chicago, Milwaukee, and San Francisco, to have the National Guard called in. The following year saw even more riots than in 1966, leading to the U.S. federal government creating the Kerner Commission to study and report on the wave of riots across the country. While no one was ever convicted of Mitchell's murder, a former police officer for Dayton's police department stated in a 2016 article of the Dayton Daily News that he believed it may have been Neal Long, a racist serial killer who targeted African American men in Dayton. Following the riot, many businesses in west Dayton either relocated out of the area or never reopened, and west Dayton continued to decline economically over the next several decades. Segregation would remain a significant issue in Dayton. In 2002, the city's school district was the last in Ohio to be released from a federal desegregation order, though many of the schools are still highly segregated. As of 2016, according to a report from the Brookings Institution, Dayton was the 14th most segregated large metropolitan area in the United States. Additionally, the city saw marked white flight following the riot, resulting in an overall decline in the population and in increase in the African American population as a percentage of the population. Speaking about the changes to west Dayton following the rioting, politician Rhine McLin (daughter of C. J. McLin, who served as Dayton's mayor from 2002 to 2010) said, "West Dayton today is worse off than west Dayton 50 years ago before the riots. Those areas were punished for rioting". Former NAACP President Jessie Gooding Jr. similarly stated that west Dayton had been economically more vibrant prior to the riot, but offered a different take on the reason for the decline, saying, "What led to their demise? Contrary to popular belief, it was not only the riots, but the highway system first, in my opinion. Before the riots, moves were being made by the city and the state to acquire land on the west side for the highway system. After the riots, when many of the businesses were closed and white flight began in earnest, the promised economic boom to the west side did not happen and small black businesses were affected". However, as of 2016, the area has seen some new economic investment in the form of new businesses and developments. In 2016, the riot was the subject of a four-part story by the Dayton Daily News called "Lasting Scars", which analyzed both the causes of and the lasting legacy of the riot.

Myostation inhibitors are a class of medications that exhibit anti-myostatin properties. Myostatin inhibitors inhibit the myostatin pathway. Myostatin, also known as growth differentiation factor 8, abbreviated GDF-8 or GDF8, is a key regulator of muscle homeostasis. Mutations that cause loss of myostatin, as well as pharmacological inhibition of myostatin activities, have shown to increase muscle growth in a number of species, including human. Such validations have prompted numerous groups over the last twenty years to develop an antagonist of the myostatin pathway as a therapeutic to treat muscle conditions, such as disuse atrophy, sarcopenia, and cachexia. Myostation inhibitors are in most cases derived from follistatin, and are monoclonal antibodies. Follistatin has been shown to exhibit potent anti-myostatin effects, but are deemed dangerous to high risks of cardiomegaly in mice. References Myostatin inhibitors Homeostasis

Cultural genocide in the United States comprises the dismantling of a culture and the de-socializing of a people. Physical and cultural disintegration of the indigenous people by forcing them to attend boarding schools along with the discrimination against them due to the instrumental use of the law are the two manifestations of cultural genocide in the United States. Against the indigenous people In reference to colonialism in the United States, Raphael Lemkin stated that the "colonial enslavement of American Indians was a cultural genocide." He also stated that colonialism in the United States comprised an "effective and thorough method of destroying a culture and de-socializing human beings." Lemkin drew a distinction between "cultural change and cultural genocide." He defined the former as a slow and gradual process of transition to new situations, and he saw the latter as the result of a radical and violent change that necessitated "the pre-meditated goal of those committing cultural genocide." Lemkin believed that cultural genocide occurs only when there are "surgical operations on cultures and deliberate assassinations of civilizations." According to Vincent Schilling, who spoke to BBC Trending, many people are aware of historical atrocities that were committed against his people, but there is an "extensive amount of misunderstanding about Native American and First Nations people's history." He added that Native Americans have also suffered a "cultural genocide” because of colonization's residual effects. Law and cultural genocide The American-Indian experience in North America is defined as comprising physical and cultural disintegration. That fact becomes clear when one examines how law and colonialism were used as tools of genocide, both physically and culturally. According to Luana Ross the assumption that law (a Euro-American construct) and its administration are prejudiced against particular groups of individuals is critical for understanding Native American criminality and the experiences of Natives imprisoned. For instance, in Georgia, the 1789 act permitted indiscriminate massacre of Creek Indians by proclaiming them to be outside the state's protection. Apart from physical annihilation, the State promoted acculturation by introducing legislation limiting land entitlements to Indians who had abandoned tribal citizenship. Boarding schools According to Schilling, there are still a large number of adult Native people who have been forcibly removed from their families and shipped off to Native residential schools, where they were beaten for speaking their native languages, were sexually assaulted by school officials, or were left to die in the cases they contracted diseases. Throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the United States had approximately 350 government-funded and frequently church-run Indigenous boarding schools. According to the U.S. Interior Department, the Indian boarding schools was meant “to culturally assimilate Indigenous children” through forcible removal from their families and communities and placement in remote "residential facilities where their American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian identities, languages, and beliefs" would be suppressed. Hundreds of thousands of Indigenous children have been removed from their communities for over 150 years. Between 1869 and the 1970s, hundreds of thousands of Indigenous children "passed through or died" at these schools until the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 gave Native American parents the legal ability to object to their children's enrollment in these institutions. Separation of children from their families with the goal "to destroy the identity of a group," partially or completely, is specifically included in the 1948 Genocide Convention's definition of genocide. The boarding schools' assimilationist goals were explicitly genocidal to the extent that these schools were intentionally designed to "kill the Indian, save the man."

Khmer inscriptions are a corpus of post-5th century historical texts engraved on materials such as stone and metal ware found in a wide range of mainland Southeast Asia (Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand and Laos) and relating to the Khmer civilization. The study of Khmer inscriptions is known as Khmer epigraphy. Khmer inscriptions are the only local written sources for the study of ancient Khmer civilization. More than 1,200 Khmer inscriptions of varying length have been collected. There was an 'explosion' of Khmer epigraphy from the seventh century, with the earliest recorded Khmer stone inscription dating from 612 AD at Angkor Borei. Beyond their archeological significance, Khmer inscriptions have become a marker of national identity. Language: Sanskrit, old Khmer, and rarely Pali The languages used on Khmer inscriptions are either ancient Khmer or sanskrit while a few have also been found in pali, though the latter are no older than the 14th century. The oldest inscription in Sanskrit is from the 5th century and the oldest one in ancient Khmer is from the 7th century. Apart from the stele of Phimanakas, there are no bilingual steles in Cambodia properly speaking; the part in ancient Khmer does not translate but sometimes paraphrases the narrative part in sanskrit with more material and technical details. Inscriptions in Sanskrit Sanskrit inscriptions, from the 5th to the 14th century, are found all over Cambodia, and they are proof of the flourishing state of Sanskrit learning. These inscriptions exhibit the knowledge of different metres and the most developed poetic rules and conventions of rhetoric and prosody. Khmer inscriptions are more philosophical than the mangala of Indian inscriptions. Their language and grammar is also more correct than most Indian inscriptions. The number of such inscriptions written in ornate kavya style is the larger than in any other  country in Southeast Asia. Khmer inscriptions in Sanskrit make us of the Shaka era and the decimal system in number first noticed in the 7th century, including the number O. Sanskrit is used in Khmer inscriptions as the language of the gods, especially for poems and prayers offered in their honour. Their structure is fixed: after an introductory invocation of the divinity, comes the praise of the founder or benefactor of the sanctuary before ending with imprecatory verses aimed at anyone who would not protect the premises of the temple and wishing them the chastisement of hell. Useful archeological information is most often found in the central part, which often reveals the name of the ruling king, and the dates of his reign. Inscriptions in ancient Khmer Ancient Khmer first appears on inscriptions at the end of the 7th century. Khmer inscriptions written in ancient Khmer are most often in prose and are usually a more or less detailed inventory of the offerings received by a sanctuary. These inscriptions reveal precious informations about the culture of Cambodia. Their content has also been found at least in one instance to match that of the Royal Chronicles of Cambodia. It is believed that the population expressed some sort of resistance with regard to the Sanskrit language, which necessitated the use of indigenous language to make known the royal orders and the charters which affected the life of the autochthonous populations. Khmer inscriptions use an alphabet stemming from Southern India. This early alphabet evolved into the actual form of Khmer. At the end of the 9th century, King Yasovarman I attempted to introduce a new form of script probably from Northern India but this attempt to not last beyond his own reign. Inscriptions in Pali Pali epigraphy in Khmer provinces is extremely scarce; only a dozen Pali inscriptions have been found, engraved in a span of twelve centuries. There is no trace of Pali texts proper in ancient Cambodian epigraphy, except epigraphs consisting of the formula: Ye dhamma. The presence of Pali in Khmer epigraphy effectively replaced that of Sanskrit from the 14th century onwards and it was regarded as a sacred language. Literary genre Khmer inscriptions attest to the existence of every type of ancient literature - scientific, historical, epic and especially religious. Religion The Khmer inscriptions written in Sanskrit are often religious invocations which reveal the influence of philosophical and theological conceptions rooted in Indian texts such as the Upanishad, the Purana and the Agama for Vaisnavism and Shaivism. Cambodian epigraphy provides a comparatively large and early documentation on Pancharatra and more specifically of its "five timely observances", as well as indications of syncretistic Vaisnavism which would be peculiar to ancient Cambodia. Khmer  inscriptions are indicative of the prompt movement of religious idea across the Indian Ocean. One example is that the Indian philosopher Adi Shankara, who died about 750 AD, is mentioned in a 9th-century Cambodian inscription. Khmer inscriptions in Pali language, however, refer to Buddhist corpus. Legislation Khmer epigraphy records the use of a state court system to maintain land borders and to settle land disputes. Economy Unfortunately, the Khmer epigraphy does not provide sufficient documentation for a definitive view of a hierarchical Khmer marketing network, but only clues. Khmer epigraphy is never explicit about issues of money and markets. Instead of reflecting a transaction system adapted to a complex society, the Angkorian period inscriptions show less concern with monetary values than before. Markets and marketing in Angkor are first mentioned at the end of the 12th century in the Ta Prohm inscription of Jayavarman VII. Khmer inscriptions confirm that the Khmer empire did not use a centralized monopole currency but rather commodity settlements and various available foreign currencies, and that its economy could be described as a catallaxy based on exchange, as evidenced by the Wat Baset inscription. Sociology We know that only brahmins, kshatriyas, and servants are mentioned in ancient Khmer epigraphy, which can be linked to the idea that caste in India was used rather more flexibly in Ancient Cambodia. Medical treatise The Khmer epigraphy has preserved some significant evidences which directly mention medical science. Music and Dance In Khmer epigraphy, there is no such text as dealing with art according to Pou Saveros. Information about music and dance found therein is of an incidental nature. Among the many rites and offerings, many artists, dancers, musicians, and singers, are to mentioned to serve the gods in daily worship. Historiography The study of Indo-Cambodian epigraphy began in 1879 with the decipherment of some Sanskrit records by H. Kern from the estampages prepared by Jules Harmand. The publication of Khmer inscriptions kicked off with the foundational work of Bart and Bergaigne who published their classic Inscriptions sanscrites de Campa et du Cambodge from 1885 to 1893 with the help of Étienne Aymonier, who laid the foundations of Khmer epigraphy in his book Cambodge (1901-1904). Their work was enriched by the work of George Cœdès from 1937 to 1954, whose goal was collate the known data about Khmer epigraphy. Since the death of the latter in 1969, epigraphist Kamaleswar Bhattacharya has claimed that "not a single scholar has turned up who can read both Sanskrit and Khmer". Others such as Matsuura Fumiaki reject the claim that the field of Khmer epigraphy is moribund since the 1960s quoting the works of scholars such as Michael Vickery, and his study on the pre-Angkorian corpus, and Philp Jenner, and his study in collaboration with Vong Sotheara, as well as Gerdi Gerschheimer leading the project of the Corpus des Inscriptions khmeres. Khmer epigraphy began to be taught as a subject at the Royal University of Phnom Penh even before Khmer Rouge Regime. It was taught to sophomore students who pursued a degree in history, Khmer literature and linguistics. Today, the teachings have spread to many other universities including the private academic institutions. Ang Choulean's 2013 textbook on the old Khmer inscriptions was the first authentic textbook written in Khmer while Sotheara has also conducted studies of Khmer epigraphy using Khmer language.

On 8 July 1959, six Viet Cong guerrillas attacked a Military Assistance Advisory Group (MAAG) compound in Biên Hòa, a town about 20 miles (32 km) northeast of Saigon. Major Dale R. Buis (visiting from MAAG 5) and Master Sergeant Chester M. Ovnand (MAAG 7) would be among the first Americans killed in the Vietnam War. Two South Vietnamese guards were killed by the guerrillas. After the incident, MAAG personnel began carrying weapons. Raid The Viet Cong attacked the mess hall, where he and five other officers were watching the film The Tattered Dress. M/Sgt Ovnand was about to switch to the next reel when VC guerrillas poked their weapons through the windows and sprayed the room with automatic weapons fire. Several 9mm rounds were fired at Ovnand. He quickly turned off the lights and went to the top of the stairs, where he was able to turn on the exterior flood lights. On the stairs, he died from his wounds. Major Buis was crawling towards the kitchen doors at the time. Buis saw the attacker coming through the kitchen doors when the exterior flood lights were swithced on. He stood up and charged at the attacker, but was only able to cover 15 feet before being fatally struck from behind. The attacker, who was about to throw his satchel charge through the door, was startled by his actions and this hesitation resulted in him blowing himself up. The Viet Cong also killed two South Vietnamese guards who were on duty that night. Captain Howard Boston (MAAG 7) and the Vietnamese cook's eight-year-old son were among those injured.

In the 1300s Robert the Bruce granted Royal Burgh of Aberdeen unusually strong rights over the burgh itself and the open lands outside the city. The land was valuable and so the boundary was marked out by the March Stones of Aberdeen, "march" being the word used to describe a border area. In their first incarnation the March Stones were large standing stones and the boundary line was augmented with cairns or it ran along natural features such as streams. Because Aberdeen is an eastern coastal town the line of stones only encircled it to the west. To discourage encroachment the bounds were regularly ridden around by burgesses in the "riding of the marches", the Scots equivalent of beating the bounds, but eventually this became merely a ceremonial matter. The area marked out, the so-called Freedom Lands of Aberdeen, lay outside the "City Royalty" – the urban area itself and the crofts just on its outskirts. One line of outer stones ran along the outer boundary of the Freedom Lands and a second line, the inner stones, was added in the 19th century, marking the division of the royalty from the Freedom Lands. The March Stones of Aberdeen were first written about in 1525 in connection with a riding of the marches. As time went by the stones themselves became marked for identification and between 1790 and 1810 new stones were installed with inscribed sequence numbers. Many of these later stones are still to be found and some that have gone missing have been replaced. Historical background The inhabitants of the Royal Burgh of Aberdeen had sheltered King Robert the Bruce and supported him militarily in 1308 at the Battle of Barra so in 1313 he granted the burgh burgesses custodianship of the Royal Forest of the Stocket, an extensive area of rough land just to the west of the town. although he retained his right for hunting and forestry. Six years later Bruce granted Aberdeen ownership rights over the Royal Burgh and Forest of Stocket for an annual rent, or feu, of £213 6s 8d pound Scots. The city burgesses later purchased three other areas of land: Rubislaw (bought 1379), Cruives, now Woodside (1405) and Gilcomston (1680). This land, along with the Stocket Forest, became called the Freedom Lands. In 1551 the burgesses obtained from Mary Queen of Scots the right to rent out these lands, by this time an area of some , so that they could become privately managed for annual payments to the burgesses. Hence these lands became the right and responsibility of the burgesses of the Royal Burgh of Aberdeen with the income accruing to the Aberdeen Common Good Fund. Boundary markers In the 16th century a border region was called a march and the first boundary markers of the march of the Freedom Lands were probably natural features supplemented with small cairns. The earliest description of the marches was in 1525 concerning a "riding of the marches", the Scots equivalent of beating the bounds. This greatly ceremonial practice had its origins in ensuring the boundaries were not being encroached upon by neighbouring landowners. In 1525 there was no standard system of marking. Any large earthfast stones might have incorporated saucer shapes filled with lead sometimes embossed with the city's seal or might have a contained a varied number of holes. A 1578 description of March Stone 1 says the city's mark was engraved in the stone itself. After the 1673 riding, several cairns were ordered to be erected along part of the line of the marches. March Stones After 1790 a new style of marking was adopted, one that the stones still display. The stones were inscribed with a sequential number followed by the letters "ABD" for Aberdeen. Aberdeen has two sets of march, or boundary, stones. The outer line surrounds the area of the Freedom Lands. The inner line of stones marks a smaller area: the boundary of the crofts immediately around the medieval Royal Burgh of Aberdeen. For this inner area, called the City Royalty, the stones were marked with an additional "CR". This systematic style of marking was completed by 1810 but the new stones were not always in the same locations as the previous ones. In particular, where natural boundaries such as burns had wandered, the stones were moved to match. Altogether there were 67 stones: the southernmost was inscribed Alpha, the northernmost Omega, 65 had a number inscribed and six others on the inner ring were simply lettered CR with no number. The distance from Alpha to Omega along the outer line of stones is about extending from the estuary of the River Dee to that of the River Don. Individual stones Cruickshank and Gunn, in their 1929 book The Freedom Lands and Marches of Aberdeen, provided details, photographs and a map of the individual March Stones. Their descriptions are accompanied by descriptions from Kennedy's Annals of Aberdeen. In 2021 Aberdeen City Council produced an updated pamphlet with similar information. None of the stones standing are the originals but some have the original stones lying beside them. In urban areas some stones have been laid flush to the ground. The numbering of the selection of stones in this article follows that used in the publications mentioned. Inner stones City Royalty stones, from south to north: Alpha stone (marked Ά ABD CR) – at southern end of inner ring of stones where Ferryhill Burn joins the River Dee at its north bank. Listed as stone 66. Early 19th century replacement. Stone 1 (marked CR 1 ABD) – southern joining point of outer and inner rings. In 1525 "ane gret grey stane, with ane sawssir" but replaced by late 18th century. Stones 68 to 74 are inscribed CR but without any number. Stone 73 pictured. Stone 61 (marked 61 ABD CR) northern joining point of outer and inner rings. Omega stone (marked Ω ABD CR) – at northern end of inner ring of stones at the confluence of Tile Burn and the River Don, south bank. Listed as stone 67. Outer stones Freedom Lands stones, clockwise from south to north: Stone 3 (marked 3 ABD). In 1780 "a large earthfast stone". Stone 8 (marked 8 ABD). As recently as 1929 there was a saucer-marked stone. Stone 27 (marked 27 ABD). Called the "Ringing Stone". The distance of two miles to the next stone is demarked by the Brodiach burn. In 1525 "And frathin to the Rigand Stane liand at the Furde beside the Ord" but now replaced. Stone 31 (marked 31 ABD). The "Doupin' Stone'. Once new burgesses were "doupit" (dropped) on the stone which now lies beside the current marked stone. Stone 32 (marked 32 ABD). Beside the stone lies the original with a saucer-shaped depression. Stones 38 & 39 were present in 2011 when it was noticed they were very near to the then-proposed alignment of the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route. By 2013, and after preparatory work had been started for the new road, the stones (category B listed in the listed buildings in the parish of Newhills) were missing and have not since reappeared. Stone 56 (marked 56 ABD). The sharp bend at this stone was to avoid the Den of Kittybrewster ("den" is ravine or glen) which had been filled in by 1929.

The Visconti Rocca of Romano is a Rocca in Romano di Lombardia, Lombardy, Northern Italy. It was built in the 13th century and expanded in the 14th and 15th centuries by the Visconti and Colleoni families. History The first castle was built in the 13th century at the north-western corner of the fortified village of Romano. The historical documents already mentioned it as La Rocca. It had a quadrangular plan with an internal courtyard and was surrounded by a large moat connected to the town's walls. Its original layout has remained substantially unchanged until today. In the first half of the 14th century, Azzone Visconti, lord of Milan, strengthened the castle. He added two other towers to the single tower of the south-eastern corner at the north-eastern and south-western corners. In 1428, when Romano passed under the Venetian rule, the towers were equipped with protruding apparatus. Bartolomeo Colleoni, who became lord of Romano in 1448 as supreme commander of the Venice troops, transformed the southern wing of the castle and created a large reception room (the Sala Grande) on the first floor of the western wing. He also raised the external loggia on the side of the south-western tower. During the 17th century, a new tower was added at the north-western corner. The walls of the primitive castle are partly built with river pebbles arranged in a herringbone pattern or mixed with brick courses. The towers of the Visconti era are made entirely in brick. The main entrance is on the eastern side, from the city. A drawbridge over the moat was replaced in 1803 by a bridge in masonry, but its traces are still visible. A secondary entrance, towards the countryside, was inserted in the south-eastern tower. At the beginning of the 20th century, the building served as the district court and prison. In 1969, the Municipality of Romano began its restoration. Today Today, the Rocca is the seat of the municipal library and the Parco del Serio. The Sala Grande hosts exhibitions and events.

Voicemeeter is a virtual mixing console and sound card running on the Windows operating system. It allows the processing of any audio signal - whether its source is physical (microphone) or virtual (application) - and its transmission to physical audio devices and/or applications. Voicemeeter offers many useful features for audio activities: VoIP users, video gamers, users of audio software such as VLC media player, Audacity, etc. Three versions of the software are available: Voicemeeter (or "Voicemeeter Standard") which offers two physical and one virtual inputs/outputs, Voicemeeter Pro (called "Banana") with three physical and two virtual inputs/outputs, an integrated recorder and additional audio processing, and Voicemeeter "Potato" offering five physical and three virtual inputs/outputs. Distributed according to the donationware model, the application can be downloaded for free. Features Virtual mixing console As a virtual mixing console, Voicemeeter makes it possible to interconnect and mix audio streams from many audio devices and applications thanks to the concept of physical inputs/outputs (for audio devices) and virtual inputs/outputs (for applications): USB microphone, DVD players, video games, iTunes, VoIP applications, Digital Audio Workstation (DAW), etc. Aggregation of audio devices and applications Voicemeeter makes it possible to mix multiple audio sources from different devices, such as a USB microphone or line input, with the sound of PC applications, such as a video player. Voicemeeter Standard offers two physical inputs and one virtual input. Voicemeeter Banana offers three physical inputs and two virtual ones. Voicemeeter Potato offers five physical inputs and three virtual ones. Mixing and real-time processing Just like a physical mixing console, Voicemeeter allows you to mix and process the different signals in real time with, in particular, equalizers, compressors and noise gates ("Audibility" button for Voicemeeter Standard), and gain controls materialized by vertical sliders. For the physical inputs, the Intellipan offers equalizers presented in the form of a two-dimensional panel allowing the rapid and almost instinctive correction of the intelligibility of the voice. In addition, Voicemeeter Banana has an advanced independent equalizer on each of the bus outputs. Multiple outputs The generated audio signals can then be sent separately to several physical (speakers, television, Bluetooth...) or virtual (Skype, Audacity, OBS, Twitch...) playback devices. Voicemeeter Standard has one physical output and one virtual output. Voicemeeter Banana has three physical outputs and two virtual outputs. Voicemeeter Potato has five physical outputs and three virtual outputs. Voicemeeter thus makes it easy, for example, to change your voice, add music and send all in a conversation via Skype or play 5.1 video games while conversing with your team. Built-in recording Voicemeeter Banana integrates an audio recorder, in the form of a cassette tape recorder from the 1980s, which allows recording bus inputs or outputs in WAV, AIFF, BWF and MP3 format. It is also an audio player supporting audio files in WAV, AIFF, MP3, M4A, MP4, MOV, AVI, WMA, WMV format,. Universal Audio Interface Voicemeeter can use Windows audio devices with WASAPI (WDM), Kernel Streaming or Multimedia Extensions interfaces and it can also manage an ASIO audio device (on output A1). It has one to three virtual inputs/outputs with all interfaces: WASAPI, KS, MME, WaveRT, DirectX as well as ASIO (to connect professional audio software to Voicemeeter). Voicemeeter Banana also offers a virtual ASIO insert driver to connect a VST host application (DAW) and process the various Voicemeeter inputs with software plug-in or any professional audio applications. Built-in audio device drivers Voicemeeter also comes with recording and playback audio drivers (giving the virtual inputs / outputs). Once these have been configured as default devices, they allow you to perform all previously mentioned tasks while avoiding conflicts between audio devices. Audio network The VBAN protocol makes it possible to send / receive uncompressed audio streams over a local area network and thus to interconnect computers without having to use audio cables. MIDI control The control of the main parameters by a MIDI control surface allows managing all the sound of the computer with a dedicated controller (Korg NanoKontrol for example). Programmable control and remote control Voicemeeter is installed with MacroButton, which allows you to create complex functions to act on one or more of the settings of Voicemeeter with a keyboard key (keyboard shortcut), a MIDI code, a threshold on an incoming signal (trigger) or an Xbox controller button (XInput). It is thus possible to change the Voicemeeter configuration with a single click and instantly adapt it to the different uses that one makes of it. VoicemeeterRemote API Voicemeeter can be considered as a system audio component that can be used by any application. An API called VoicemeeterRemote API allows read and write actions on Voicemeeter parameters and thus control Voicemeeter from a program to use it as an audio service or as a virtual sound card. A program can thus set up signal processing callbacks to process the sound in Voicemeeter. Any programming language can be used. Documentation Voicemeeter has a dedicated forum and a Discord server, managed by the development team and expert users. A detailed and regularly updated manual is also available for download on the publisher's website. In addition to the software's features, it presents the basic configuration to be carried out, proposes practical case studies and provides solutions to the most common problems. Video tutorials are also regularly posted on the Internet by Voicemeeter users. Distribution model Voicemeeter is distributed under the donationware model. The application can therefore be downloaded and used free of charge, without any limitation of functionalities. The user is then invited to make a donation to the developer, by selecting the amount of his contribution.

Animal Locomotion: An Electro-photographic Investigation of Consecutive Phases of Animal Movements (1872–1885) is a series of scientific photographs by Eadweard Muybridge to study motion in animals including humans. In all, over 100,000 images were made, resulting in a portfolio of 781 composite collotype prints published in 1887. Following his invention of the zoöpraxiscope and motion studies in California, Muybridge was commissioned by the University of Pennsylvania to oversee the photographic aspects of a scientific study of animal movement. Work from the commission was subsequently published as an eleven-volume portfolio set titled Animal Locomotion. The body of work is celebrated for its contribution to both the art of photography and to science. History In 1879, Muybridge created the zoöpraxiscope (animal action viewer), a projection device that created cyclical animations of animal movement, incorporating technologies from photography, the magic lantern and the zoetrope. The photographer created painted sequences on the glass zoöpraxiscope discs that were based on his motion-study photographs to produce an early form of animation. Muybridge used these to illustrate his lectures that were presented to audiences in the U.S. and Europe, marking his contribution to photography and film in relation to the "experience of time within modernity." In a 1885 news report, the photographer stated that his interest in animal movement was inspired by observing an eagle flying in the Yosemite Valley in California some years prior. Muybridge described the bird as making "numerous flaps with its wings, but in flying across a valley to another peak it went for a distance of over a mile with but one flap of the wings. I was convinced that individual feather movements upheld and propelled the bird, and I can prove by the negative plates of the eagle whose flight we photographed last Thursday that my conclusion was correct." These earlier photographs in California formed the basis for his later work with the University of Pennsylvania. While working in California, Muybridge used the wet-plate collodion process in making his albumen-print photographs. Once he got to Philadelphia, he began to employ a standardized dry-plate process, involving quicker exposure times; these were printed using the collotype photomechanical process. Muybridge commission The Animal Locomotion project was a collaborative endeavor between the photographer, and the institutional commissioning committee at the University of Pennsylvania. In 1883, Muybridge met with William Pepper and J.B. Lippincott to discuss a plan for a scientific study focused on the analysis of animal and human movement. The university contributed $5,000 to what would be a total cost of about $30,000, seeing the proposed project as important research that would benefit anthropology, physiology, medicine and sports. Using a 12-camera photographic rig, Muybridge made series of sequential images that captured humans walking down stairs, pole vaulting, running, wrestling and other activities. Muybridge's chronophotographic studies included animals as well, and even exotic species borrowed from the Philadelphia Zoo. These plates included The Horse in Motion, Capybara Walking depicting the world's largest rodent, Ostrich Running (also printed as a cyanotype) and American Bison Cantering, among other representations of animals. Some of these studies were conducted using a 24-camera photographic rig. The cameras were placed 27-inches apart alongside a track containing trip wires that triggered the shutters on the cameras. Between the years of 1883 and 1886, Muybridge was engaged in a productive period at the University of Pennsylvania when he and his team produced over 100,000 images of locomotion in humans and animals. The painter Thomas Eakins worked with him briefly, althogh the painter preferred working with multiple exposures on a single negative, whereas Muybridge preferred capturing motion through the use of multiple cameras. Content and publication Muybridge would publish his study as an eleven volume set, consisting of 781 plates, each presenting the successive photographic images of a single subject, under the title Animal Locomotion. Alternatively, individual subscribers had the option of selecting 100 plates of their choosing from the portfolio's prospectus and complete catalog for $100. Contrary to the animal focus suggested by the title of the collection, only about 200 of the images represented subjects other than humans, and many of the animal plates featured horses, the latter partially a consequence of Muybridge's offering private owners to photograph their horses in exchange for a contribution to the cost of the study. In many cases the human images featured nude or partially-nude men or women, directly confronting a local controversy over the use of nude models in art. Though the animals were typically photographed running or walking across the frame, human subjects were also portrayed performing activities ranging from typical daily tasks to competitive athletics. Reception Muybridge's Animal Locomotion project received attention in the news, who reported on his unusual character and eccentricities as well as the photographic project. The collection's portrayal of nude subjects has been the focus of a directed scholarly study. Impact on other artists Historians and theoreticians have proposed that Muybridge's work on animal locomotion influenced a number of other artists, photographers and filmmakers, including Marcel Duchamp, Thomas Eakins, Walt Disney, among others. The composer, Philip Glass created a three-part chamber opera titled The Photographer in 1982 that featured a slide show of the motion studies in the second act. The conceptual artist, Sol LeWitt was inspired by the serial nature of the Animal Locomotion studies, and produced works that directly refers to it. In 1992, the Addison Gallery of American Art produced the exhibition, Motion and Document–Sequence and Time: Eadweard Muybridge and Contemporary American Photography, pairing Muybridge's animal motion studies with the work of 42 artists and photographers among them Vito Acconci and Sarah Charlesworth. The show later traveled to the Long Beach Museum of Art. Collections The University of Pennsylvania houses the Muybridge Collection, which contains 740 of the 781 plates, along with some of his photographic equipment. Images from the series are held in numerous permanent collections including the Royal Academy of Arts, Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, the Metropolitan Museum, the Brooklyn Museum, the Museum of Modern Art and others.
