# Coroner's Court of Western Australia
The **Coroner\'s Court of Western Australia** is a court which has exclusive jurisdiction over the remains of a person and the power to make findings in respect of the cause of death of a person in Western Australia.
## History
The office of coroner in New South Wales derives from the legal framework inherited from the United Kingdom. The first Governor of New South Wales, Arthur Phillip, was a coroner by virtue of his commission as governor. Similarly, Lieutenant Governors of Western Australia also had similar powers. The governor\'s commission also entitled him to appoint others as coroners as required, and this was most likely to have been to justices of the peace. In the 2000s the processes of the court were reviewed.
The first female appointee to the role of State Coroner was Rosalinda Fogliani in 2014.`{{full citation needed |date=March 2025}}`{=mediawiki} She oversaw significant cases related to deaths in 2017 relating to Aboriginal suicides in the Kimberley.
## Structure and jurisdiction {#structure_and_jurisdiction}
Coroners have the power to investigate the causes of death within their jurisdiction. They also have power to retain a person\'s remains, order autopsies, and direct how a person\'s remains may be disposed. Unlike coroners in other states, Western Australian coroners do not have jurisdiction to hold inquiries concerning the cause of any fire in the state.
Where a serious criminal offence has been disclosed during the course of an inquest or an inquiry, the Coroner may refer that matter to the Western Australian Director of Public Prosecutions for consideration of the institution of criminal proceedings. Generally there are no appeals from the decision of a coroner, although there may be provision for the Supreme Court of Western Australia to grant prerogative relief in respect of the proceedings.
## State Coroner {#state_coroner}
The governor of Western Australia on the advice of the Attorney-General of Western Australia may appoint a state coroner for Western Australia. The state coroner has the function to oversee and co-ordinate coronial services in Western Australia, ensure that all deaths and suspected deaths concerning which a coroner has jurisdiction to hold an inquest are properly investigated, and ensuring that an inquest is held whenever it is required, and to issue guidelines to coroners to assist them in the exercise or performance of their functions.
The governor on the recommendation of the attorney general may also appoint a deputy state coroner. Deputy state coroners may exercise any of the functions of the state coroner delegated by the state coroner to them. The governor may also appoint coroners and Coroner\'s registrars.
All coroners in Western Australia are magistrates by virtue of their appointment as a coroner

# The Imposture
***The Imposture*** is a Caroline era stage play, a tragicomedy written by James Shirley and first published in 1652. Shirley himself considered *The Imposture* the best of his romantic comedies.
*The Imposture* was licensed for performance (as *The Imposter*) by Sir Henry Herbert, the Master of the Revels, on 10 November 1640. It was acted at the Blackfriars Theatre by the King\'s Men, the company for which Shirley wrote in the 1640--2 era.
The play was published by booksellers Humphrey Moseley and Humphrey Robinson in the octavo collection of Shirley\'s works titled *Six New Plays* (1653). In that edition, the Prologue of the play states that Shirley \"has been stranger long to the English scene\" --- referring to Shirley\'s stay in Dublin at the Werburgh Street Theatre from 1636 to 1640. This may indicate that *The Imposture* was the first of Shirley\'s plays acted after his return from Ireland. Shirley dedicated the play to Sir Robert Bolles.
## Synopsis
Flaviano is the courtly favorite of the Duke of Mantua; he desires to marry the Duke\'s daughter Fioretta. She, however, has been promised to Prince Leonato of Ferrara, who has brought his army to the aid of Mantua in its current war. Honorio, the Duke\'s son and Fioretta\'s brother, favors Leonato; while he lies wounded, Flaviano schemes to persuade the Duke that Leonato is a wild young man who is morally unfit to be Fioretta\'s husband. Flaviano manipulates the situation so that Fioretta is moved to a convent, from where he spirits her secretly to his mother\'s country house. He also puts out word that Fioretta has decided to remain at the convent for a year, effectively postponing the marriage.
Prince Leonato is outraged, and blames the Duke for bad faith; he demands a face-to-face meeting with Fioretta. The Duke feels that he cannot deny this demand --- but he and Flaviano plan to substitute another woman in the meeting. One of the novices at the content is Flaviano\'s former mistress Juliana; Flaviano prevails upon her to take Fioretta\'s part. He even wants Juliana to marry Leonato --- but the Duke will not go that far; Juliana is merely to insist upon the one-year delay.
Prince Leonato arrives at the convent, and has his meeting with the false Fioretta. Juliana, superficially, plays her part as instructed; yet Leonato correctly interprets her replies to indicate that she would not object if he forced the issue. Taking the hint, Leonato leads a troop of his men to break into the convent and carry off \"Fioretta.\" He takes her home to Ferrara\...where the true Fioretta has also arrived. Suspicious of Flaviano, Fioretta has escaped from his mother\'s country house and reached Ferrara in disguise, where she has taken an assumed name and is staying with Leonato\'s sister Donabella. Honorio has also come to Ferrara, to seek justice and vengeance for what he thinks is the rape of his sister. As he and Leonato are prepared to duel, Juliana and Donabella rush between them. Honorio confronts his pretended sister, but Juliana manages to persuade him to remain silent for the time being.
The real Fioretta locates and welcomes her brother, while Juliana confronts Prince Leonato. She tells the prince that she is a noble virgin forced to impersonate Fioretta by the Duke of Mantua. Honorio breaks in with a captive Flaviano; Flaviano has followed Honorio to Ferrara to kill him, but has gotten caught instead. Honorio tries to explain Flaviano\'s villainous manipulations --- but Leonato refuses to listen; he believes Juliana, and has resolved both to marry her and to go to war with Mantua.
For a moment, Flaviano\'s plotting appears to have worked; but he is betrayed by a co-conspirator named Claudio. Juliana\'s falsehood is exposed; she begs for mercy, but Leonato casts her aside. The Duke of Mantua himself arrives in Ferrara, and the Fioretta/Juliana tangle is exposed and unraveled. Leonato is matched with Fioretta, and Honorio with Donabella; Juliana is sent back to the convent, and Flaviano is exiled.
The play\'s subplot involves the courting of the widow Florelia by the soldiers Hortensio and Volterino. Florelia says that she will marry the man who cures her son Bertoldi of his cowardice. The soldiers, with a share of soldierly drinking and brawling, try to make Bertoldi brave, and failing that, to make him appear brave; but that fails too. Eventually making the best of a bad job, Florelia marries Hortensio

# The Go Master
(`{{zh|s=吴清源|t=吳清源|p=Wú Qīngyuán}}`{=mediawiki}) is a 2006 biopic film directed by Tian Zhuangzhuang of the twentieth century Go master Wu Qingyuan, better known as Go Seigen, the Japanese pronunciation of his name. The film, which premiered at the 44th New York Film Festival, focuses on the life of this extraordinary player from his meteoric rise as a child prodigy to fame and fortune as a revolutionary strategic thinker, as well as the tumultuous global conflicts between his homeland and his adopted nation. The film also features a scene involving the Atomic bomb go game. The film also screened at the AFI\'s China Film Festival in Silver Spring, Maryland.
## Plot
The Go Master shines a light on the life and times of Wu Qingyuan, pronounced Go Seigen in Japanese. Wu is considered the greatest Go player of the 20th century, his talents bringing him from his native China to a professional career in Japan when he was only a teenager. Based on Wu\'s autobiography, this elegantly shot and remarkably restrained biopic follows the life of a singular figure, fascinating not only for his genius and achievements in the game of Go, but also for his unique experiences as a Chinese man in Japan during an immensely turbulent period in history. Acclaimed Taiwanese actor Chang Chen (Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon) portrays the title role in a subtle, poignant performance that is as penetrating as it is opaque, underlying the brooding lyricism of the film. The Go Master co-stars Sylvia Chang, Matsuzaka Keiko, Emoto Akira, and Ito Ayumi, and Wu Qingyuan himself appears briefly in the film\'s prologue. Also of note is the film\'s costume design, which is by designer Wada Emi (Ran, Hero, House of Flying Daggers).
With the breakout of the Sino-Japanese War in the 1930s, Wu Qingyuan (Chang Chen) and his family are thrown into an uncomfortable and dangerous position as Chinese nationals residing in Japan. While Wu\'s family returns to China, he chooses to stay behind in his adopted country to continue to pursue the game of Go. In the quiet recluse of his school, there are no politics, only the singular dedication to his art and the love for his wife Kazuko (Ayumi Ito). However, the chaos of the times eventually forces him out of his enclave, throwing his life and mind into conflict.
Wu\'s career ends abruptly when he is struck by a motorcycle in a collision which does not appear to be an accident. This real-life incident may have been a conspiracy against him by opponents in the world of Go, where he remained an unshakable winner. He is later hospitalized and can no longer play Go, due to brain trauma. Despite this, the film ends nostalgically in the golden room of Go.

# Omar Arellano (footballer, born 1987)
**Omar Arellano Riverón** (born 18 June 1987) is a Mexican former professional footballer who played as a midfielder.
## Club career {#club_career}
### Guadalajara
Arellano had originally started playing in club Guadalajara\'s youth ranks around the same time as Javier Hernandez. At the age of 14 he decided to make the move to Club Pachuca where his father Omar Arellano Nuño was offered a job as head coach of Club Pachuca\'s Juvenil squads. Before returning to Guadalajara in 2007, Arellano had played 394 minutes with Pachuca and had averaged out one goal every 131 minutes. He scored his first goal for CD Guadalajara against their town rivals Atlas, a match that is referred to as \"El Clasico Tapatio\" (Spanish for \"Jalisco\'s Classic\", since they play in the same state and city). On July 12, 2008, while playing the 2008 SuperLiga Arellano scored his second goal with Guadalajara at the 24th minute with a break-away, suiting the number 9 jersey left behind by Omar Bravo and his third goal again in the 2008 Superliga against Houston Dynamo. Arellano scored the two goals that helped Chivas defeat their rivals Club América in the Estadio Azteca in the El Súper Clásico. After a grueling injury that put him in the shelf for months, he returned on February 28, 2009, against F.C. Pachuca where he scored 2 of the 5 goals that his team scored in the 5--0 win. His own father, Omar Arellano Nuño was assistant and for an even shorter amount of time, manager in 2009. On April 4, 2010, he scored against America in the El Súper Clásico and Chivas became the first team in the Torneo Bicentenario to qualify to the liguilla. He is also not had good luck with injury due that he came back from one. On April 27, 2010, in the Copa Libertadores, he made an outstanding participation against Vélez Sársfield where he gave two assist in the 3--0 victory for Chivas de Guadalajara. In a friendly against FC Barcelona he gave an assist to Marco Fabian to give Chivas the lead in their friendly in the World Football Challenge. Arellano is sponsored by Adidas and can be seen wearing the Adidas F50 football cleats.
### Monterrey
Omar Arellano was traded to C.F. Monterrey for the Clausura 2013 tournament for right back Sergio Perez.

# Thornton v Shoe Lane Parking Ltd
is a leading English contract law case. It provides a good example of the rule that a clause cannot be incorporated after a contract has been concluded, without reasonable notice before. Also, it was held that an automatic ticket machine was an offer, rather than an invitation to treat, that the insertion of money was an acceptance, therefore, specifically, any (additional) conditions on the ticket were post-acceptance and invalid.
Although the case is important for these two propositions, today any exclusion of negligence liability for personal injury by businesses is prohibited by the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 s 2(1) and the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 Sch 2, para(a).
## Facts
Francis Thornton, \"a free lance trumpeter of the highest quality\", drove to the entrance of the multi-storey car park on Shoe Lane, before attending a performance at Farringdon Hall with the BBC. He took a ticket from the ticket machine and parked his car. It said
> \"This ticket is issued subject to the conditions of issue as displayed on the premises\".
On the car park pillars near the paying office there was a list, one excluding liability for
> \"injury to the Customer ... howsoever that loss, misdelivery, damage or injury shall be caused\".
Three hours later he had an accident before getting into his car. The car park operator argued that the judge should have held the matter regulated by this contract, not tort.
## Judgment
Lord Denning MR held that the more onerous the clause, the better notice of it needed to be given. Moreover, the contract was already concluded when the ticket came out of the machine, and so any condition on it could not be incorporated in the contract.
Megaw LJ and Sir Gordon Willmer agreed with the onerous point, but reserved their opinions on where the contract was concluded. Furthermore, Sir Gordon - similarly to Denning - distinguished this case from the other ticket cases based upon the fact that a human clerk proffered the ticket and the buyer therefore would have had the opportunity to disagree with the conditions, hand the ticket back and have their money refunded

# Solomon L. Hoge
**Solomon Lafayette Hoge** (July 11, 1836 -- February 23, 1909) was a lawyer, soldier, judge and politician in Ohio and South Carolina.
Hoge was born in Pickrelltown, Ohio, and he received his early childhood education at the public schools in the nearby city of Bellefontaine. Afterwards, he received a classical education at Geneva College in Northwood and he graduated from Cincinnati Law School in 1859. Hoge was admitted to the bar the same year and commenced the practice of law in Bellefontaine. Hoge believed that slavery should not only be prevented from spreading to new states and territories, but should be phased out in the states where it already existed. Hoge condemned President Franklin Pierce for Pierce\'s role in recognizing the pro-slavery government of Bleeding Kansas and he condemned the Supreme Court for their ruling in the case of Dred Scott v. Sandford as well President James Buchanan for supporting the ruling. Upon the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861, Hoge enrolled in the Union Army as a First Lieutenant in the 82nd Ohio Volunteer Infantry. He was promoted to captain and became the commander of a Federal company of infantry.
After the war, Hoge settled in Columbia, South Carolina, and despite possessing little legal experience was elected in 1868 as an associate justice to the South Carolina Supreme Court. He served eighteen months on the bench before moving on to the House of Representatives.
Hoge won a seat as a Republican to represent the 3rd congressional district after he successfully challenged the election of Democrat J.P. Reed to the Forty-first Congress. Since the Republicans controlled Congress, the two Democrats elected from South Carolina were unseated and Hoge filled the seat on April 8, 1869 and served the remainder of the term until March 3, 1871. Running on the Republican ticket with Franklin J. Moses, Jr. for governor in 1872, Hoge won the race for comptroller general against the Independent Republican candidate J. Scott Murray of Anderson. In 1874, Hoge waged another run for Congress to represent the 3rd district and he defeated Samuel McGowan, a Conservative Party candidate, to win the seat.
In 1870, Hoge appointed James Webster Smith, a former slave, to the United States Military Academy marking the first time an African-American had been admitted. Six years later, in 1876 Hoge appointed Johnson Chesnut Whittaker, another African-American, to the United States Military Academy.
Upon the completion of Hoge\'s term in 1877, South Carolina Republicans were in a state of disarray following Wade Hampton\'s victory in the 1876 gubernatorial election. Most white carpetbaggers left the state and Hoge was no different. He moved to Kenton, Ohio and practiced law there until 1882 when he became president of the First National Bank of Kenton. Hoge died in Battle Creek, Michigan, and was interred at Grove Cemetery in Kenton

# Rank–size distribution
**Rank--size distribution** is the distribution of size by rank, in decreasing order of size. For example, if a data set consists of items of sizes 5, 100, 5, and 8, the rank-size distribution is 100, 8, 5, 5 (ranks 1 through 4). This is also known as the **rank--frequency distribution**, when the source data are from a frequency distribution. These are particularly of interest when the data vary significantly in scales, such as city size or word frequency. These distributions frequently follow a power law distribution, or less well-known ones such as a stretched exponential function or parabolic fractal distribution, at least approximately for certain ranges of ranks; see below.
A rank-size distribution is not a probability distribution or cumulative distribution function. Rather, it is a discrete form of a quantile function (inverse cumulative distribution) in reverse order, giving the size of the element at a given rank.
## Simple rank--size distributions {#simple_ranksize_distributions}
In the case of city populations, the resulting distribution in a country, a region, or the world will be characterized by its largest city, with other cities decreasing in size respective to it, initially at a rapid rate and then more slowly. This results in a few large cities and a much larger number of cities orders of magnitude smaller. For example, a rank 3 city would have one-third the population of a country\'s largest city, a rank 4 city would have one-fourth the population of the largest city, and so on.
## Segmentation
A rank-size (or rank--frequency) distribution is often segmented into ranges. This is frequently done somewhat arbitrarily or due to external factors, particularly for market segmentation, but can also be due to distinct behavior as rank varies.
Most simply and commonly, a distribution may be split in two pieces, termed the **head** and **tail**. If a distribution is broken into three pieces, the third (middle) piece has several terms, generically **middle**, also **belly**, **torso**, and **body**. These frequently have some adjectives added, most significantly *long tail*, also *fat belly*, *chunky middle*, etc. In more traditional terms, these may be called *top-tier*, *mid-tier*, and *bottom-tier*.
The relative sizes and weights of these segments (how many ranks in each segment, and what proportion of the total population is in a given segment) qualitatively characterize a distribution, analogously to the skewness or kurtosis of a probability distribution. Namely: is it dominated by a few top members (head-heavy, like profits in the recorded music industry), or is it dominated by many small members (tail-heavy, like internet search queries), or distributed in some other way? Practically, this determines strategy: where should attention be focused?
These distinctions may be made for various reasons. For example, they may arise from differing properties of the population, as in the 90--9--1 principle, which posits that in an internet community, 90% of the participants of a community only view content, 9% of the participants edit content, and 1% of the participants actively create new content. As another example, in marketing, one may pragmatically consider the head as all members that receive personalized attention, such as personal phone calls; while the tail is everything else, which does not receive personalized attention, for example receiving form letters; and the line is simply set at a point that resources allow, or where it makes business sense to stop.
Purely quantitatively, a conventional way of splitting a distribution into head and tail is to consider the head to be the first *p* portion of ranks, which account for $1 - p$ of the overall population, as in the 80:20 Pareto principle, where the top 20% (head) comprises 80% of the overall population. The exact cutoff depends on the distribution -- each distribution has a single such cutoff point---and for power, laws can be computed from the Pareto index.
Segments may arise naturally due to actual changes in the behavior of the distribution as rank varies. Most common is the king effect, where the behavior of the top handful of items does not fit the pattern of the rest, as illustrated at the top for country populations, and above for most common words in English Wikipedia. For higher ranks, behavior may change at some point, and be well-modeled by different relations in different regions; on the whole by a piecewise function. For example, if two different power laws fit better in different regions, one can use a broken power law for the overall relation; the word frequency in English Wikipedia (above) also demonstrates this.
The Yule--Simon distribution that results from preferential attachment (intuitively, \"the rich get richer\" and \"success breeds success\") simulates a broken power law and has been shown to \"very well capture\" word frequency versus rank distributions. It originated from trying to explain the population versus rank in different species. It has also been shown to fit city population versus rank better.
## Rank--size rule {#ranksize_rule}
The **rank-size rule** (or **law**) describes the remarkable regularity in many phenomena, including the distribution of city sizes, the sizes of businesses, the sizes of particles (such as sand), the lengths of rivers, the frequencies of word usage, and wealth among individuals.
All are real-world observations that follow power laws, such as Zipf\'s law, the Yule distribution, or the Pareto distribution. If one ranks the population size of cities in a given country or in the entire world and calculates the natural logarithm of the rank and of the city population, the resulting graph will show a linear pattern. This is the rank-size distribution.

# Rank–size distribution
## Known exceptions to simple rank--size distributions {#known_exceptions_to_simple_ranksize_distributions}
While Zipf\'s law works well in many cases, it tends to not fit the largest cities in many countries; one type of deviation is known as the King effect. A 2002 study found that Zipf\'s law was rejected in 53 of 73 countries, far more than would be expected based on random chance. The study also found that variations of the Pareto exponent are better explained by political variables than by economic geography variables like proxies for economies of scale or transportation costs. A 2004 study showed that Zipf\'s law did not work well for the five largest cities in six countries. In the richer countries, the distribution was flatter than predicted. For instance, in the United States, although its largest city, New York City, has more than twice the population of second-place Los Angeles, the two cities\' metropolitan areas (also the two largest in the country) are much closer in population. In metropolitan-area population, New York City is only 1.3 times larger than Los Angeles. In other countries, the largest city would dominate much more than expected. For instance, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the capital, Kinshasa, is more than eight times larger than the second-largest city, Lubumbashi. When considering the entire distribution of cities, including the smallest ones, the rank-size rule does not hold. Instead, the distribution is log-normal. This follows from Gibrat\'s law of proportionate growth.
Because exceptions are so easy to find, the function of the rule for analyzing cities today is to compare the city systems in different countries. The rank-size rule is a common standard by which urban primacy is established. A distribution such as that in the United States or China does not exhibit a pattern of primacy, but countries with a dominant \"primate city\" clearly vary from the rank-size rule in the opposite manner. Therefore, the rule helps to classify national (or regional) city systems according to the degree of dominance exhibited by the largest city. Countries with a primate city, for example, have typically had a colonial history that accounts for that city pattern. If a normal city distribution pattern is expected to follow the rank-size rule (i.e. if the rank-size principle correlates with central place theory), then it suggests that those countries or regions with distributions that do not follow the rule have experienced some conditions that have altered the normal distribution pattern. For example, the presence of multiple regions within large nations such as China and the United States tends to favor a pattern in which more large cities appear than would be predicted by the rule. By contrast, small countries that had been connected (e.g. colonially/economically) to much larger areas will exhibit a distribution in which the largest city is much larger than would fit the rule, compared with the other cities---the excessive size of the city theoretically stems from its connection with a larger system rather than the natural hierarchy that central place theory would predict within that one country or region alone

# Welshpool Road
**Welshpool Road** is a major arterial road running through the metropolitan area of Perth, Western Australia. Although the road is now split in two, having had its western and eastern sections disconnected due to the extension of Roe Highway, it remains Welshpool\'s second most important road (after Orrong Road), and the highest quality access road for the Darling Scarp.
Welshpool Road East is part of State Route 8, while the entire road was previously allocated State Route 35.
## Route description {#route_description}
### Welshpool Road {#welshpool_road}
Welshpool Road west of Roe Highway is 5.5 km long, and unlike Welshpool Road East, did not have a West suffix added after the road\'s disconnection. The road is typical of those major in the Welshpool Area; although of a reasonable quality, being a 4-lane single or dual carriageway it contains only a handful of traffic lights, is choked by traffic in peak hour, has industrial business dotting the road, and has many minor roads which have no form of control, give way and stop signs excepted.
Welshpool Road begins as an extension of a west-east section of Albany Highway (Albany Highway continues to the south of the intersection). Continuing through Welshpool it meets the Leach Highway soon after. Leach Highway marks the most dangerous intersection for both Welshpool Road and Leach Highway; the intersection is also one of Perth\'s busiest. It then meets Kewdale Road, passing through outer Welshpool after this point. The final controlled intersection for the road is McDowell Street. McDowell Street extends north, meets Orrong Road, and then continues into neighbouring Kewdale. Although of importance for barely 300 m, McDowell Street distributes traffic onto Orrong Road, allowing motorists to continue their journey along Welshpool Road East.
For those who continue along Welshpool Road, the road sharply turns south after 500 m, and continues as William Street.
#### Junctions
### Welshpool Road East {#welshpool_road_east}
Welshpool Road East (9.5 km long) had an East suffix added after the road\'s disconnection. At a similar quality to Welshpool Road, its 4-lane section is an entire dual carriageway; it changes to a 2 to 3 lane single carriageway after climbing most of the Darling Scarp, however. With only 4 traffic lights in total (two of those at Roe Highway\'s diamond interchange), traffic problems are relatively minor, the only congestion being towards Roe Highway westbound.
Allocated State Route 8, Welshpool Road East starts as an extension of Orrong Road. Soon after meeting Roe Highway, it meets Hale Road. Hale Road serves as the main road for Forrestfield, eventually passing through a rural Maida Vale and climbing the Darling Scarp. Welshpool Road then passes through Wattle Grove, a mostly rural foothill suburb; however, this section is suburban. It then meets Tonkin Highway; this marks both State Route 8 and Welshpool Road\'s final traffic light and departure from the Swan Coastal Plain.
After this point, the scenery transitions to semi-rural; however, the quality of the road remains high. After about 2 km, the road starts to climb the Darling Scarp, varying from 6- to 10-degree angle of slope. A short time after this, the median which was previously as wide as 4 lanes thins out dramatically, and becomes negligible. The road continues to climb quite steeply; similar to Great Eastern Highway the climb is constant; Kalamunda Road\'s climb of the escarpment is undulating. Welshpool Road East then meets Lesmurdie Road, and finally changes to a 2-lane single carriageway. After this point, westbound traffic is given two overtaking lanes that last for about 750 m each. Finishing its climb in Carmel, Welshpool Road terminates into Canning Road.
#### Junctions {#junctions_1}
## History
Roe Highway\'s extension beyond Welshpool Road in 2002 represented the biggest change to Perth\'s transport infrastructure since the Graham Farmer Freeway was opened in 2000. Welshpool Road, Orrong Road and William Street were the 3 major roads affected due to the extension.
Before Roe Highway\'s extension in 2002, the highway\'s north and southbound lanes separated, leaving a 250 m gap between them once they met Welshpool Road. After this, they both formed one lane and came back together, continuing as William Street. Orrong Road would terminate into Welshpool Road in the form of a T-junction.
Due to the extension of Roe Highway, major changes were made. Firstly, Welshpool Road was disconnected; William Street was disconnected from Roe Highway, and Orrong Road was extended to meet Roe Highway in the form of a diamond interchange. Orrong Road now continues as Welshpool Road East. Welshpool Road West now continues as William Street.
Until 2024, Welshpool Road crossed the South Western Railway via a level crossing. As part of the Victoria Park-Canning Level Crossing Removal Project, a bridge was built to carry the railway line over the road

# Harlem Irving Plaza
**Harlem Irving Plaza** (commonly referred to as \"**The HIP**\") is a shopping mall located in Norridge, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago. The mall features over 100 stores and a food court. The mall\'s anchor stores are Kohl\'s, Nordstrom Rack, XSport Fitness, Xfinity, Best Buy, Target, Hobby Lobby, DSW, Five Below, Toys\"R\"Us, and Dick\'s. It is one of the oldest shopping malls in the Chicago area.
## History
Built on the site of a former livestock farm, Harlem Irving Plaza opened in 1956 as a 337000 sqft strip mall featuring approximately 45 tenants. Original anchor stores included Kroger, Walgreens, Wieboldt\'s, W.T. Grant, and Woolworth. The plaza became a member of the International Council of Shopping Centers a year after opening.
Between 1975 and 1979, the former strip mall was enclosed, and a parking garage was added. Also in 1979, Madigan\'s was added to the roster of department stores. MainStreet, a short-lived subsidiary of Federated Department Stores opened at the mall in 1987, just as Wieboldt\'s closed. In 1989, Kohl\'s acquired and converted all of the stores in the MainStreet chain; Carson Pirie Scott opened in the former Wieboldt\'s the same year. A food court was added in 1996, and Best Buy opened in the former Madigan\'s. Best Buy re-located to the mall\'s parking lot in 2001; its original location was replaced with a second parking garage. The mall underwent a thorough renovation in 2004, gaining a 175000 sqft Target in August of that year. In honor of the mall\'s 50th anniversary in 2006, Harlem Irving Plaza hosted a meet and greet with the original Mouseketeers (Mickey Mouse Club). In honor of the mall\'s 60th anniversary in 2016, Harlem Irving Plaza hosted a meet and greet with Bobby Hull, Mike Ditka and Dick Butkus.
Sports Authority, Panera Bread, Chipotle Mexican Grill, and a fitness center were to be added in a 2013 expansion. Sports Authority has since closed. It was announced that in the fall of 2017 Nordstrom Rack would take the place of the vacated Sports Authority location. Carson\'s has since gone out of business, which prompted a transformation of the shuttered retailer into a large atrium and new entry for visitors entering via the upper parking deck.
In early October 2021, Dick\'s Sporting Goods opened its doors on the mall\'s third floor addition with fellow-anchor Hobby Lobby pre-occupying the second floor. Hobby Lobby and Dick\'s Sporting Goods as of November 2021 are the sole two occupants of the above-first level expansion to the mall initially finalized in 2020. Target is the only other second floor holding retailer although their second floor does not have a mall entrance.
On October 26, 2024, Toys\"R\"Us opened standalone store at Harlem Irving Plaza Mall which it's a first Chicagoland store with much fanfare on Saturday. Shoppers packed Harlem Irving Plaza in suburban Norridge, hoping to be one of the first 50 guests to receive a swag bag. The 10,000 square-foot store held a ribbon-cutting ceremony complete with an appearance from Geoffrey the Giraffe, face painting, balloon twisting and more

# William Montagu Manning
**Sir William Montagu Manning** `{{post-nominals|country=GBR|sep=,|KCMG|QC}}`{=mediawiki} (20 June 1811 -- 27 February 1895) was an English-born Australian politician, judge and University of Sydney chancellor.
## Early life {#early_life}
Manning was born in June 1811 at Alphington, near Exeter, Devon, the second son of John Edye Manning and Matilda Jorden (*née* Cooke). William Manning was educated in Tavistock, Southampton and University College, London. Manning then worked for an uncle, Serjeant Manning and was entered at Lincoln\'s Inn in November 1827. He was called to the bar in November 1832 and practised as a barrister on the Western Circuit. In collaboration with S. Neville, Manning prepared and published *Reports of Cases Relating to the Duty and Offices of Magistrates* (3 volumes, 1834-8), and was the author of *Proceedings in Courts of Revision in the Isle of Wight* (1836). On 16 August 1836 in Paris he married Emily Anne Wise (sister of Edward Wise).
## Career in Australia {#career_in_australia}
In 1837 William and Emily Manning went to Australia on the *City of Edinburgh*, joining William\'s father who was registrar of the Supreme Court of New South Wales. Soon after his arrival in Sydney on 31 August 1837 was made a chairman of Quarter Sessions with a salary of £800. He took up his duties at Bathurst, New South Wales in October. In 1842 he was offered the position of resident judge at Port Phillip District, and in September 1844 became Solicitor General for New South Wales. In January 1848 he was appointed acting-judge of the Supreme Court of New South Wales during the absence of Mr Justice Therry. He resumed the position of Solicitor General at the end of 1849, and held this position until responsible government was established in 1856, when he retired with a pension of £800 a year. Manning was nominated to the New South Wales Legislative Council by Governor Fitzroy in October 1851, and assisted in the preparation of William Wentworth\'s constitution bill.
Manning was elected a member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly in the first parliament, topping the poll for the South Riding of Cumberland. Manning was Attorney-General of New South Wales in the Stuart Donaldson ministry from 6 June to 25 August 1856. He was given the same position in the Henry Parker ministry in October 1856, but resigned on 25 May 1857 on account of ill-health. He was appointed a Queen\'s Counsel on 23 May 1857, the second NSW Barrister to be so appointed, and went to England. On 23 February 1858 Manning was knighted by the Queen Victoria.
On his return Manning was offered a temporary seat on the Supreme Court of New South Wales but declined it. On 21 February 1860 joined the William Forster ministry as attorney-general, but the ministry resigned about a fortnight later. In September 1861 he was appointed to the Legislative Council. He was again attorney-general in the John Robertson and Charles Cowper ministries from October 1868 to December 1870. In February 1875, though he was then a member of the upper house he was asked to form a ministry, but was unable to obtain sufficient support. Manning was appointed a Supreme court judge in 1876, requiring his resignation from the Legislative Council. He was primary judge in equity until his resignation in 1887. He voluntarily gave up his pension when he became a judge. On 8 February 1888 Manning was again nominated to the Legislative Council, and gave useful service there until near the end of his life.
## University of Sydney {#university_of_sydney}
Manning had been elected a fellow of the senate of the University of Sydney in 1861, became chancellor in 1878 and held this position until his death on 27 February 1895 in Sydney.
Before Manning came into office the University had fewer than a hundred students in 1877, but during his chancellorship there was much expansion in the scope of the university and several new chairs were founded. He fought for and succeeded in getting increased grants from the government, stressed the need for more grammar schools to be created, and for the provision of university scholarships. He pleaded that women should have the same opportunities as men at the university and this was granted in 1881. Manning saved the university £15,000 by his discovery that the British taxation commissioners were charging succession duty on the John Henry Challis estate on too high a scale.
Manning\'s portrait by Sir John Watson Gordon, paid for by public subscription is in the MacLaurin Hall at Sydney University. He was knighted in 1858 and created K.C.M.G. in 1892. Manning married a second time to Eliza Anne, daughter of the Very Rev. William Sowerby on 7 June 1849. He was survived by a son and daughter from his first marriage; and his second wife and their son and three daughters. A daughter, Emily Matilda Manning (1845--1890), was a noted writer. Manning was buried in the cemetery of St Jude\'s Church, Randwick

# Cloquet High School
**Cloquet High School** (CHS) is a high school in Cloquet in the U.S. state of Minnesota. Operated by Cloquet Public Schools, it serves approximately 700 students in grades 9-12; a typical graduating class has 160 to 200 members. It has existed for over 100 years. The current building was built in 1969, with the old building then being turned into a middle school. That building was built in 1921 replacing an earlier school destroyed, along with much of the town, in the 1918 Cloquet fire.
It serves almost all of Cloquet and all of Scanlon. 46.7097222 -92.4413889 region:US-MN_type:edu_source:gnis display=title notes=\<ref\>{{Gnis 2073815 Cloquet Senior High School}}\</ref\>
## Academics
Curriculum requirements for the four core areas are as follows: three-and-a-half years of mathematics, four years of English, four years of social studies (including geography, world events, economics, US government, world and US history courses), and three years of science. Students are required to take a year of physical education and a year of art (performance or visual). CHS offers courses in Spanish, German, and Anishinaabe. The College In The Schools (CITS) program allows students to take classes in high school, with teachers in the building, for credit through local colleges, notably Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College and the University of Minnesota Duluth. The colleges certify high school teachers and approve course curriculums, and students who take those courses receive a separate transcript from the college in addition to the normal high school transcript. Students also have the option of post secondary enrollment; for either senior or junior year (or both) they may enroll directly in a local college. They still graduate from CHS and can join sports and other extracurriculars at the high school, but attend all or part of their classes at the college.
## Athletics
The school contends at state level in American football, basketball, hockey, and soccer. In order to participate in athletics they need to maintain a minimum GPA and behavior code, as established by the Minnesota State High School League and CHS. Official teams are: CHS Boys\' sports: Baseball, basketball, cross country running, football, golf, hockey, skiing (both alpine and cross country), soccer, tennis, track and field, and wrestling. CHS Girls\' sports: Basketball, cross country running, golf, hockey, skiing (both alpine and cross country), soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track and field, volleyball, and wrestling. Other clubs and activities: The White Pine (school yearbook), cheerleading, chess club, danceline, Destination Imagination, Future Problem Solving (FPS), Knowledge Bowl, Madrigals, Mathematics Team, Mock Trial, Pep Band, Science Fair, and various intramurals.
## Arts
Visual art classes are taught on drawing, painting, photography, sculpture and ceramics. There are three choirs: concert, crystal (all-women), and varsity (as well as a smaller group of madrigals who perform at sports games and other events throughout the year); a concert band, pep band, and jazz band; and an orchestra. There are also two theater performances every year, a musical in the fall and a play in the spring

# Christopher Nicholson
**Christopher David George \"Kit\" Nicholson** (16 December 1904 -- 28 July 1948) was a British architect and designer. His principal buildings of the 1930s show strong influences of the Rationalist and International Modernist architectural movements.
## Early life {#early_life}
Nicholson was born on 16 December 1904 at Pilgrim\'s Lane, Hampstead, the fourth child of the artists William Nicholson and Mabel Pryde. His siblings were the celebrated painter Ben (1894--1982); Anthony (1897--1918), who died of wounds in France during the First World War; and Annie Mary \"Nancy\" (1899--1978), artist and wife of the poet Robert Graves.`{{r|campbell2}}`{=mediawiki} Kit Nicholson was educated at Gresham\'s School, Holt, from 1917 to 1922, and then read architecture at St John\'s College, Cambridge. In 1926 he won a one-year Davison Scholarship to study architecture at Princeton University.`{{r|four|page=27}}`{=mediawiki}
## Career
After his return to Britain in 1927 he undertook several small architectural commissions. From 1929 to 1930 he taught at the School of Architecture of the University of Cambridge; one of his pupils was Hugh Casson. Nicholson moved to London in 1931, and worked for Watson Hart and Val Myer. In December 1931 he married Elsie Queen Myers, usually known as EQ Nicholson, whom he had met in about 1930.`{{r|four|page=27}}`{=mediawiki}
In 1933 he started his own architectural practice, in premises over a chemist\'s at 100 Fulham Road.`{{r|four|p=27|vanda}}`{=mediawiki} Casson joined the practice in 1934, and EQ also worked there.`{{r|four|p=53}}`{=mediawiki}
Between 1933 and 1934 Nicholson worked on the design and construction of a new studio for Augustus John at Fryern Court, near Fordingbridge in Hampshire.`{{r|oda}}`{=mediawiki} In International Modernist style, it had a flat roof and a spiral staircase, was raised on pilotis, and was painted pink.`{{r|oda}}`{=mediawiki}
In 1935 and 1936 he designed and built the premises of the London Gliding Club at Dunstable in Bedfordshire, which showed the influence of the German architect Eric Mendelsohn.`{{r|four|page=27|oda}}`{=mediawiki} In the same period, he made alterations to Monkton House for Edward James, and designed and constructed a private house, Kit\'s Close, at Henley.`{{r|four|page=27}}`{=mediawiki} In 1938 James asked him to design a new building for his estate at West Dean, which was to incorporate the façade of James Wyatt\'s Pantheon in Oxford Street, London, which was being demolished.`{{r|four|page=27}}`{=mediawiki}
Nicholson was elected to the Modern Architecture Research Group in 1937,`{{r|four|page=27}}`{=mediawiki} and was on the committee which organised the New Architecture Exhibition held by the group at the New Burlington Galleries in London from 11 to 29 January 1938.`{{r|dnb}}`{=mediawiki}
With the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939, Nicholson signed up as a meteorological officer in the Fleet Air Arm. Between 1943 and 1945 he was the commander in charge of flying at the Inskip airfield in Lancashire.`{{r|four|page=27}}`{=mediawiki} In 1945 he flew a Hellcat to Ceylon (now Sri Lanka) to take up a position as commander of the Katukurunda base of the Fleet Air Arm. He flew solo, and the journey took him a month.`{{r|bingham|page=20}}`{=mediawiki}
After he returned to Britain in 1946, Nicholson resumed practice as an architect. He undertook small commissions, including some design work for exhibition stands, and the design of radio and television sets for Ferranti.`{{r|four|page=27|bingham|page2=108}}`{=mediawiki}
He died in a gliding accident on 28 July 1948, the eighth day of the World Gliding Championships at Samedan in the Graubünden, in Switzerland, where he was on the British team. He was forty-three.`{{r|four|page=27|bingham|page2=108|wills}}`{=mediawiki}
## Legacy and honours {#legacy_and_honours}
In 1988 an exhibition in York showed Nicholson\'s work beside that of his brother, his sister and his wife.`{{r|four}}`{=mediawiki} In 1994 the Royal Institute of British Architects acquired his complete collection of drawings, records and photographs for the Drawings Collection of the British Architectural Library

# Dual cone and polar cone
**Dual cone** and **polar cone** are closely related concepts in convex analysis, a branch of mathematics.
## Dual cone {#dual_cone}
### In a vector space {#in_a_vector_space}
The **dual cone** *C`{{sup|*}}`{=mediawiki}* of a subset *C* in a linear space *X* over the reals, e.g. Euclidean space **R**^*n*^, with dual space *X`{{sup|*}}`{=mediawiki}* is the set
$$C^* = \left \{y\in X^*: \langle y , x \rangle \geq 0 \quad \forall x\in C \right \},$$
where $\langle y, x \rangle$ is the duality pairing between *X* and *X`{{sup|*}}`{=mediawiki}*, i.e. $\langle y, x\rangle = y(x)$.
*C`{{sup|*}}`{=mediawiki}* is always a convex cone, even if *C* is neither convex nor a cone.
### In a topological vector space {#in_a_topological_vector_space}
If *X* is a topological vector space over the real or complex numbers, then the **dual cone** of a subset *C* ⊆ *X* is the following set of continuous linear functionals on *X*:
$$C^{\prime} := \left\{ f \in X^{\prime} : \operatorname{Re} \left( f (x) \right) \geq 0 \text{ for all } x \in C \right\}$$,
which is the polar of the set -*C*. No matter what *C* is, $C^{\prime}$ will be a convex cone. If *C* ⊆ {0} then $C^{\prime} = X^{\prime}$.
### In a Hilbert space (internal dual cone) {#in_a_hilbert_space_internal_dual_cone}
Alternatively, many authors define the dual cone in the context of a real Hilbert space (such as **R**^*n*^ equipped with the Euclidean inner product) to be what is sometimes called the *internal dual cone*.
$$C^*_\text{internal} := \left \{y\in X: \langle y , x \rangle \geq 0 \quad \forall x\in C \right \}.$$
### Properties
Using this latter definition for *C`{{sup|*}}`{=mediawiki}*, we have that when *C* is a cone, the following properties hold:
- A non-zero vector *y* is in *C`{{sup|*}}`{=mediawiki}* if and only if both of the following conditions hold:
1. *y* is a normal at the origin of a hyperplane that supports *C*.
2. *y* and *C* lie on the same side of that supporting hyperplane.
- *C`{{sup|*}}`{=mediawiki}* is closed and convex.
- $C_1 \subseteq C_2$ implies $C_2^* \subseteq C_1^*$.
- If *C* has nonempty interior, then *C`{{sup|*}}`{=mediawiki}* is *pointed*, i.e. *C\** contains no line in its entirety.
- If *C* is a cone and the closure of *C* is pointed, then *C`{{sup|*}}`{=mediawiki}* has nonempty interior.
- *C`{{sup|**}}`{=mediawiki}* is the closure of the smallest convex cone containing *C* (a consequence of the hyperplane separation theorem)
## Self-dual cones {#self_dual_cones}
A cone *C* in a vector space *X* is said to be *self-dual* if *X* can be equipped with an inner product ⟨⋅,⋅⟩ such that the internal dual cone relative to this inner product is equal to *C*. Those authors who define the dual cone as the internal dual cone in a real Hilbert space usually say that a cone is self-dual if it is equal to its internal dual. This is slightly different from the above definition, which permits a change of inner product. For instance, the above definition makes a cone in **R**^*n*^ with ellipsoidal base self-dual, because the inner product can be changed to make the base spherical, and a cone with spherical base in **R**^*n*^ is equal to its internal dual.
The nonnegative orthant of **R**^*n*^ and the space of all positive semidefinite matrices are self-dual, as are the cones with ellipsoidal base (often called \"spherical cones\", \"Lorentz cones\", or sometimes \"ice-cream cones\"). So are all cones in **R**^3^ whose base is the convex hull of a regular polygon with an odd number of vertices. A less regular example is the cone in **R**^3^ whose base is the \"house\": the convex hull of a square and a point outside the square forming an equilateral triangle (of the appropriate height) with one of the sides of the square.
## Polar cone {#polar_cone}
For a set *C* in *X*, the **polar cone** of *C* is the set
$$C^o = \left \{y\in X^*: \langle y , x \rangle \leq 0 \quad \forall x\in C \right \}.$$
It can be seen that the polar cone is equal to the negative of the dual cone, i.e. *C^o^* = −*C`{{sup|*}}`{=mediawiki}*.
For a closed convex cone *C* in *X*, the polar cone is equivalent to the polar set for *C*

# Sincheon-dong, Seoul
**Sincheon-dong** (`{{korean|hangul=신천동}}`{=mediawiki}) is a neighbourhood (*dong*) in Songpa District, Seoul, South Korea. It is served by Jamsillaru Station on Seoul Subway Line 2. The name means \"new stream\" and is a name for several other places in South and North Korea.
## History and etymology {#history_and_etymology}
The name of the area, originally a part of the land north of the Han River in the present-day Jayang-dong of Gwangjin District, is believed to have originated from a small river that was created due to a great flood. This flood caused a new waterway to form in the northern part of what is now the Jamsil area. The newly formed stream was referred to as \"Saenae,\" \"Saegaecheon,\" \"Sincheongang,\" or \"Sincheon\" (meaning \"new river\") in reference to its recent creation. This led to the naming of the area as \"Sincheon-ri\" (新川里), which translates to \"New River Village.\"
Meanwhile, the area around Jamsilsaenae Station on Seoul Subway Line 2 is also referred to as \"Sincheon,\" although it shares the same origin in name, it is not directly connected to the original Sincheon-ri. This area is named after the people of \"Saenae Village\" who had originally lived on Jamsil Island. They migrated to the vicinity of the Jamsilbon-dong Saemaeul Market, and the area came to be known as \"Sincheon.\"
Historically, the area in front of Saenae Village, now the current landmass, was also part of Sincheon-dong, but due to administrative boundary adjustments, it was incorporated into Jamsil-dong. Jamsilsaenae Station has always been part of Jamsil-dong. During the development of the Jamsil area, part of Seoul Asan Hospital was transferred to Pungnap-dong, while significant portions of the eastern part of Jamsil 4-dong were incorporated from neighboring districts, including Idong and Pungnap-dong

# Debra Hand
**Debra Hand** is a self-taught artist and sculptor from Chicago, Illinois.
She created a bronze statue of the poet Paul Laurence Dunbar after receiving a commission to do so from the Chicago Park District in 2012. The statue, which is 9 ft tall, was unveiled at the city\'s Dunbar Park in 2014.
## History
Hand first publicly unveiled her work at the DuSable Museum of African American History.`{{When|date=February 2019}}`{=mediawiki}
The unveiling was arranged by the museum\'s principal founder, Margaret Taylor-Burroughs who took a personal interest in Hand\'s work and showcased her during Burrough\'s historic *Lifetime in the Arts* retrospective exhibit at the museum. It was during this occasion that she invited Hand on stage and introduced her to an audience of art patrons and dignitaries as an emerging-artist with great potential; one that they should watch for on Chicago\'s fine-art scene.
Since the museum presentation, Hand\'s rise to prominence has continued steadily. Her work can be found in diverse collections ranging from museum collections such as the Smithsonian Anacostia Community Museum -- which acquired a cello by Hand -- to corporate and private collections.
Hand\'s body of work is noted for its contemporary and figurative sculptures, dancers, musicians, and stringed instruments. The collection of stringed instruments titled \"Strings Attached\' was created after she was given a real violin by the Illinois Philharmonic Orchestra and challenged to use it as a canvas for a work of art.
Hand\'s sculptures, paintings and stringed instruments have been filmed by every major network in Chicago and in 2005 she was featured by Harry Porterfield of WLS-TV, as \"Someone You Should Know.\" Her work has also been featured in *Curators of Culture*, an Emmy-Award-winning documentary by producer Rita Coburn Whack. The film traces the history of the South Side Community Art Center (SSCAC), one of Chicago\'s great art institutions. The SSCAC, like the DuSable Museum in Chicago, was also cofounded by Margaret Taylor-Burroughs who stood alongside Eleanor Roosevelt (wife of President Franklin D. Roosevelt) as the ribbons were cut to this great Works Progress Administration institution. In 2010, when the SSCAC decided to honor Anne \"Anna\" Roosevelt, the granddaughter of the late President Roosevelt and First Lady Eleanor, along with her grandparents, posthumously, the SSCAC chose Hand to create and present the award sculpture at the Harris Theater in Chicago during the SSCAC\'s 70th anniversary celebration and their commissioned performance of \"Off The Walls and Onto the Stage.\"
Works by Hand can be found in collections such as that of the DuSable Museum, the Smithsonian Institution Anacostia Museum, the United Negro College Fund and the Plaze Club located atop the Prudential Building in downtown Chicago. Works by Hand also appear in many publications including \"The Art of Culture - Evolution of Visual Art by African-American Artists\" published by the Africa International House, \"African Art: The Diaspora and Beyond\" by author Daniel Parker, DTEX publishing; and in nationally distributed magazines

# Separation principle
In control theory, a **separation principle**, more formally known as a **principle of separation of estimation and control**, states that under some assumptions the problem of designing an optimal feedback controller for a stochastic system can be solved by designing an optimal observer for the state of the system, which feeds into an optimal deterministic controller for the system. Thus the problem can be broken into two separate parts, which facilitates the design.
The first instance of such a principle is in the setting of deterministic linear systems, namely that if a stable observer and a stable state feedback are designed for a linear time-invariant system (LTI system hereafter), then the combined observer and feedback is stable. The separation principle does not hold in general for nonlinear systems.
Another instance of the separation principle arises in the setting of linear stochastic systems, namely that state estimation (possibly nonlinear) together with an optimal state feedback controller designed to minimize a quadratic cost, is optimal for the stochastic control problem with output measurements. When process and observation noise are Gaussian, the optimal solution separates into a Kalman filter and a linear-quadratic regulator. This is known as linear-quadratic-Gaussian control. More generally, under suitable conditions and when the noise is a martingale (with possible jumps), again a separation principle applies and is known as the separation principle in stochastic control.
The separation principle also holds for high gain observers used for state estimation of a class of nonlinear systems and control of quantum systems.
## Proof of separation principle for deterministic LTI systems {#proof_of_separation_principle_for_deterministic_lti_systems}
Consider a deterministic LTI system:
$$\begin{align}
\dot{x}(t) & = A x(t) + B u(t) \\
y(t) & = C x(t)
\end{align}$$
where
$$u(t)$$ represents the input signal,
$$y(t)$$ represents the output signal, and
$$x(t)$$ represents the internal state of the system.
We can design an observer of the form
$$\dot{\hat{x}} = ( A - L C ) \hat{x} + B u + L y \,$$
and state feedback
$$u(t) = - K \hat{x} \, .$$
Define the error *e*:
$$e = x - \hat{x} \, .$$
Then
$$\dot{e} = (A - L C) e \,$$
$$u(t) = - K ( x - e ) \, .$$
Now we can write the closed-loop dynamics as
$$\begin{bmatrix}
\dot{x} \\
\dot{e} \\
\end{bmatrix} =
\begin{bmatrix}
A - B K & BK \\
0 & A - L C \\
\end{bmatrix}
\begin{bmatrix}
x \\
e \\
\end{bmatrix}.$$
Since this is a triangular matrix, the eigenvalues are just those of *A* − *BK* together with those of *A* − *LC*. Thus the stability of the observer and feedback are independent

# University of Louisville School of Law
The **University of Louisville Louis D. Brandeis School of Law**, commonly referred to as The University of Louisville School of Law or the Brandeis School of Law, is the law school of the University of Louisville. Established in 1846, it is the oldest law school in Kentucky and the fifth oldest in the country in continuous operation. The law school is named after Justice Louis Dembitz Brandeis, who served on the Supreme Court of the United States and was the school\'s patron. Following the example of Brandeis, who eventually stopped accepting payment for \"public interest\" cases, Louis D. Brandeis School of Law was one of the first law schools in the nation to require students to complete public service before graduation.
The school offers six dual-degree programs that allow students to earn an MBA, MSW, MA in humanities, M.Div. (with the Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary), MA in political science, and MUP in urban planning while attaining their J.D. These classes are offered in conjunction with other University of Louisville departments.
The school\'s law library contains 400,000 volumes as well as the papers of Louis D. Brandeis and John Marshall Harlan, both Supreme Court Justices and native Kentuckians. It is one of only thirteen Supreme Court repositories in the nation. The law school\'s flagship law review is the *University of Louisville Law Review*.
According to University of Louisville\'s 2018 ABA-required disclosures, 92% of the Class of 2018 was employed within ten months of graduation. This includes 76% who obtained full-time, long-term, JD-required employment ten months after graduation, excluding solo practitioners.

# University of Louisville School of Law
## History
### 19th and early 20th century history {#th_and_early_20th_century_history}
Louis D. Brandeis School of Law began in 1846 as the Law Department of the University of Louisville. For most of the nineteenth century the Law Department remained small and focused on practical education. \"As late as the 1870s the school still supported a faculty of only three professors, each of whom met classes two days per week for four hours.\" Classes were held in the late afternoon to allow students to keep daytime jobs as law clerks. The faculty ignored the casebook method of instruction that was being developed at Harvard Law School at the time, instead encouraging students to visit local courts and offering optional mock court sessions. The \"school literature even boasted that the faculty consisted of \'practical lawyers\' and not professional educators.\" As a result, prominent faculty members such as James Speed and Peter B. Muir often eschewed their part-time positions in favor of politics or private practice.
The turn of the twentieth century saw the Law Department finally begin to accept emerging national standards in legal education. In 1909, the school adopted Harvard Law\'s casebook method. In 1911, the school graduated its first female student, N. Almee Courtright. In 1923, the Law Department officially became the School of Law and hired a full-time professor. The following year University of Louisville President Arthur Younger Ford insisted that students must take some college courses before being admitted to the law school.
### The UofL School of Law and the Jefferson School of Law {#the_uofl_school_of_law_and_the_jefferson_school_of_law}
Despite these efforts at reform, the students and professors of the School of Law continued to prefer part-time practical education over the national trend towards more formal legal education. This partly reflected the success of and competition from the **Jefferson School of Law**, which opened in 1905 and offered night classes.
Organized by several prominent local attorneys, the part-time professors at the Jefferson School of Law received tuition directly from the students and were responsible for renting classroom space. With students wishing to clerk and part-time professors continuing to practice, both schools were located within walking distance of the courthouse. As the national trend continued towards formal legal education, the Jefferson School of Law found it difficult to manage as a part-time law school. In 1950 the Jefferson School of Law merged with the University of Louisville School of Law.

# University of Louisville School of Law
## History
### Louis D. Brandeis and the UofL School of Law {#louis_d._brandeis_and_the_uofl_school_of_law}
Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis was a great supporter of the University of Louisville. A native Louisvillian, Brandeis planned to make the university a \"major center of academic research by creating specialized library and archival collections in such areas as sociology, art, music, and labor.\" In addition to time and money, Brandeis also donated his personal papers, books, and pamphlets, numbering over 250,000 items. He was also instrumental in getting Supreme Court briefs and a collection of Justice John Marshall Harlan\'s papers deposited in the law school library.
In honor of Brandeis, the University of Louisville School of Law changed its name to the Louis D. Brandeis School of Law in 1997.
The school\'s Louis D. Brandeis Society, established in 1976, awards the Brandeis Medal to individuals whose lives reflect Louis Brandeis\' commitment to the ideals of individual liberty, concern for the disadvantaged and public service.
The Brandeis Law Library owns a limited edition print of Andy Warhol\'s portrait of Brandeis which is on display in the library\'s main reading room.
The ashes of Brandeis and his wife Alice Goldmark Brandeis are buried underneath the law school portico. His ashes are buried approximately fifty yards away from Auguste Rodin\'s *The Thinker*.
## Today
True to its history, the Louis D. Brandeis School of Law has retained a strong focus on practical legal education. The school offers students a chance to gain experience at its law clinic, on moot court teams, in skills competitions, and on three student-edited law journals. As part of the Samuel L. Greenebaum Public Service Program, the school also requires all students to complete 30 hours of law-related public service. The school has several pre-professional student-run organizations, including the Student Trial Lawyers Association, International Law Society, Student Health Law Association, Environmental Law Society, and The Brand (intellectual property).
In addition to pre-professional student organizations, there are also a number of student-run social and political organizations on campus. A partial list of these includes the Federalist Society, the American Constitution Society, Lambda Law Caucus, Black Students Association, Asian-Pacific Law Students Association, Jewish Law Students Association, Christian Legal Society, and Woman\'s Law Caucus.
The Law Library supports the curriculum and research needs of the school\'s faculty and students, and is open to the university community, practicing bar, and the general public.

# Continental rise
The **continental rise** is a low-relief zone of accumulated sediments that lies between the continental slope and the abyssal plain. It is a major part of the continental margin, covering around 10% of the ocean floor.
## Formation
This geologic structure results from deposition of sediments, mainly due to mass wasting, the gravity-driven downhill motion of sand and other sediments. Mass wasting can occur gradually, with sediments accumulating discontinuously, or in large, sudden events. Large mass wasting occurrences are often triggered by sudden events such as earthquakes or oversteepening of the continental slope. More gradual accumulation of sediments occurs when hemipelagic sediments suspended in the ocean slowly settle to the ocean basin.
## Slope
Because the continental rise lies below the continental slope and is formed from sediment deposition, it has a very gentle slope, usually ranging from 1:50 to 1:500. As the continental rise extends seaward, the layers of sediment thin, and the rise merges with the abyssal plain, typically forming a slope of around 1:1000.
## Accompanying Structures {#accompanying_structures}
### Alluvial Fans {#alluvial_fans}
Deposition of sediments at the mouth of submarine canyons may form enormous fan-shaped accumulations called submarine fans on both the continental slope and continental rise. Alluvial or sedimentary fans are shallow cone-shaped reliefs at the base of the continental slope that merge together, forming the continental rise.
Erosional submarine canyons slope downward and lead to alluvial fan valleys with increasing depth. It is in this zone that sediment is deposited, forming the continental rise. Alluvial fans such as the Bengal Fan, which stretches 3000 km, make up one of the largest sedimentary structures in the world. Many alluvial fans also contain critical oil and natural gas reservoirs, making them key points for the collection of seismic data.
### Abyssal Plain {#abyssal_plain}
Beyond the continental rise stretches the abyssal plain, which lies on top of basaltic oceanic crust and spans the majority of the seafloor. The abyssal plain hosts life forms which are uniquely adapted to survival in its cold, high pressure, and dark conditions. The flatness of the abyssal plain is interrupted by massive underwater mountain chains near the tectonic boundaries of Earth\'s plates. The sediments are mostly silt and clay

The original Miami Bridge was a cantilever through truss bridge built in 1939, and its deck was replaced in 1983 as part of a rehabilitation project. The old bridge\'s main cantilever span was 474.7 feet, while the two anchor spans were each 415 feet in length, resulting in a total cantilever truss length of 1304.7 feet. There were 11 approach spans, including four Warren deck truss spans, three on the northern approach and one on the southern approach. All remaining approach spans were steel stringer (multi-beam/girder) spans. Total bridge length including approach spans is 2,071.9 feet. The bridge\'s deck width is 23.0 feet and it has vertical clearance of 16.5 feet.
The bridge was constructed with the assistance of the Federal Administration of Public Works also known as the Public Works Administration. Sverdrup and Parcel were consulting engineers for the structure, and Massman Construction Company was the contractor. The original plans for the bridge show plans for the original wooden toll building that was once located on the bridge. According to the plans, the toll building was painted white, featured wooden Slow and Stop signs, and included a cast iron stove for heating.
According to Clayton B. Fraser who conducted Missouri\'s 1992 Historic Bridge Inventory, the Miami Bridge was eligible for the National Register of Historic Places as an \"outstanding, large-scale example of steel truss construction, located on important great river crossing.\"
## Current bridge {#current_bridge}
Despite its historic significance, Missouri Department of Transportation decided against rehabilitating the bridge and instead has decided to demolish the bridge\'s superstructure and erect a new bridge using the piers and abutment of the old bridge. The project will begin with the bridge\'s closure, scheduled for October 5, 2009

# Egomania
**Egomania** is a psychiatric term used to describe excessive preoccupation with one\'s ego, identity or self and applies the same preoccupation to anyone who follows one\'s own ungoverned impulses, is possessed by delusions of personal greatness & grandeur and feels a lack of appreciation. Someone suffering from this extreme egocentric focus is an **egomaniac**. Egomania as a condition, while not a classified personality disorder, is considered psychologically abnormal.
The term \"egomania\" is often used by laypersons in a pejorative fashion to describe an individual who is perceived as intolerably self-centered. Narcissistic personality disorder is the clinical condition that most resembles and is most often associated with this definition and usage of the term, though the two differ vastly according to the individual\'s responses to others.
## History
Egomania was brought into polemical prominence at the end of the 19th century by Max Nordau, one of the first critics who perceived the centrality of the concept of egoism for an understanding of Modernism, with criticism on the ideology of egomania. Nordau distinguished egoism from the egomania. He described egoism as a lack of amiability while maintaining the ability to look after oneself, and egomania as a condition where one does not see things as they are, does not understand the world, and cannot take up a right attitude towards it. Nordau\'s attack was aimed at the avant-garde of the *fin de siècle*. He describes the self-proclaimed geniuses as criminals & madmen obsessed with **culte du moi** (the cult of self)*.*
Over a century later, the term egomania re-appeared with a positive gloss to mark the post-modern quest for success and celebrity. \"Self-confidence is the key to all success\...\" By contrast, reticent personalities may be labelled: it may well be a form of egomania, if you aren\'t willing to take a chance\".
## Substance abuse {#substance_abuse}
Egomania has also been linked with alcoholism.
A recovering alcoholic may well look back at the past as \"the land of self-loathing, egomania, and decay\".
Additionally, addiction can also be significantly influenced by egotism. Unquestionably, the detrimental psychological traits of the substance abusers are a precedent to behaviours such as excessive alcohol and drug use. These individuals turn to alcohol or drugs as a coping mechanism in place of alternate methods of dealing with negative feelings, such as sadness and anxiety.
The danger with the egomaniac is always that \'underneath the apparent over-confidence and bravado lies a fragile personality\', driven by \"grandiose fantasies of boundless success or power or perfect love\" which cannot be fulfilled

# Roman Catholic Diocese of Corner Brook and Labrador
The **Roman Catholic Diocese of Corner Brook and Labrador** (*Dioecesis Riviangulanensis-Labradorensis*) (erected 9 May 1870, as the Prefecture Apostolic of Western Newfoundland) is a suffragan of the Archdiocese of St. John\'s, Newfoundland. The Cathedral of the diocese is located in Corner Brook.
## History
The Diocese of Corner Brook and Labrador was erected on 9 May 1870 as the Prefecture Apostolic of Western Newfoundland. It was re-erected as an apostolic vicariate on 28 April 1892 and as the Diocese of Saint George\'s on 18 February 1904.
In 2007, the diocese was expanded and its name was changed from \"St. George\'s\" to \"Corner Brook and Labrador\". This was done by incorporating nearly the entirety of the Diocese of Labrador into the Diocese of St. George.

The airport used to be called Santo-Pekoa International airport until it was renamed in the Vanuatu AIPV amendment released on 16 June 2021. Airports Vanuatu Limited provides aviation services for the airport.
## Airlines and destinations {#airlines_and_destinations}
## History
### World War II {#world_war_ii}
The 7th Naval Construction Battalion arrived on Santo on 11 August 1942 to begin construction of more extensive Espiritu Santo Naval Base air facilities to support the Guadalcanal Campaign. After completing a second fighter airfield at Turtle Bay they began constructing two bomber fields, one at Palikulo Bay known as *Bomber Field No. 1* and the other at Pekoa, known as *Bomber Field No. 2*. Working in cooperation with a company of the US Army 810th Engineer Aviation Battalion, the 7th CB cleared, graded, and surfaced a 5000 ft by 150 ft coral runway on the site of a prewar plantation. The 15th CB arrived on Santo on 13 October 1942 and extended the runway to 7000 ft with pierced steel planking over a coral base, and built taxiways, revetments, and miscellaneous structures. The completed airfield was operational in December 1942 and was known as \"Bomber Field No. 2\" or \"Pekoa Field\".
The Thirteenth Air Force was based at Pekoa from 13 January 1943 until 20 January 1944 when it moved to Carney Airfield on Guadalcanal. Units assigned were:
- Headquarters, XIII Bomber Command, 13 January-20 August 1943
- Headquarters, XIII Fighter Command, 22 January--December 1943
- 5th Bombardment Group, 1 December 1942 -- 19 August 1943
- 11th Bombardment Group, 22 July 1942 -- 8 April 1943
- 18th Fighter Group, 11 March-17 April 1943
- 4th Reconnaissance Group, 23 January 1943 -- 6 May 1944
- 403d Troop Carrier Group, 13 September 1943 -- 30 August 1944
As the war moved further north, Pekoa Airfield was closed on 8 February 1945 and all traffic routed to Palikulo Bay Airfield.
### Postwar
Luganville Airfield was used as a civilian airstrip until the early 1970s, however as it was on higher ground it was often clouded in and so it was decided to move all operations to the former Pekoa Airfield/Bomber Field No.2 which became Santo-Pekoa International Airport.
Of the four wartime airfields on Espiritu Santo: Turtle Bay Airfield, Palikulo Bay Airfield, Luganville Airfield and Pekoa; Pekoa is the only wartime airfield still in use

# Buchan Caves
The **Buchan Caves** are a group of limestone caves that include the **Royal Cave** and the **Fairy Cave**, located south-west of `{{VICcity|Buchan}}`{=mediawiki}, in the East Gippsland region of the Australian state of Victoria. They have a total length of between 3 and, and six entrances.
The Buchan Cave Reserve has been transferred back to the Gunaikurnai Nation and is jointly managed with the state.
The limestone rock at Buchan was laid down during the Devonian period about 300 -- 400 million years ago. At the time, the sea covered this area of East Gippsland which was alive with shellfish and coral. Their remains were deposited in layers and over the years compacted to form limestone. The caves were formed by solution of the limestone.
The Buchan Caves are located approximately 360 km east northeast (or six hours\' drive) from Melbourne, along the Princes Highway, north of Lakes Entrance. Other caves nearby include Cloggs Cave and New Guinea II cave.
## Tourism
The caves are a major tourist attraction for Buchan and for East Gippsland. Daily tours are conducted in Royal Cave and Fairy Cave. Royal Cave features calcite-rimmed pools and in Fairy Cave features elaborate stalactites and stalagmites. Both caves are lit, have walkways and have a constant temperature of 17 C making it a comfortable temperature all year round.
The Buchan Caves are situated within the Buchan Caves Reserve. There is access to short and long walks in the surrounding bushland and the nearby Snowy River National Park. The area is surrounded by trees and wildlife, including over 60 species of birds including bellbirds and lyrebirds. Amenities include campsites and cabins, picnic ground, playground and an information centre.
## History
### Aboriginal history {#aboriginal_history}
The traditional and current custodians of the Buchan Caves and its surrounds are the Australian Aboriginal Gunaikurnai Nation.
### European history {#european_history}
Buchan Caves were first identified and described for colonial settlers, when in 1840. Stewart Ryrie, Junior, accompanied by an Aboriginal guide and three soldiers, came across caves, in the course of a survey of the area. He entered one of the caves, on 7 April 1840, possibly the one known as \'the Garage\'. In January 1861, the Austrian-born artist Johann Joseph Eugen von Guerard, visited the caves and made a pencil sketch of the interior of a cave.
The caves were accidentally made a reserve in 1887, as they were on land set aside for stock camping. The government commissioned an exploration of the land and, on the recommendation of the geologist Albert Ernest Kitson, reserved the area to protect the caves (for geological and limited recreational use).
In 1907, Frank Moon reported back about the Fairy Cave which was then opened to the public later that year. Royal Cave was mapped in 1910 by Frederick Wilson and after an entrance tunnel was excavated, it was opened to visitors in 1913. The Caves Reserve was set out and planted mostly in the late 1930s.
The site is listed on the Victorian Heritage Register and is included a Heritage Overlay

# Roman Catholic Diocese of Saint-Hyacinthe
The **Roman Catholic Diocese of Saint-Hyacinthe** is a Latin rite suffragan of the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Sherbrooke in Quebec, (predominantly francophone) Canada.
Its cathedral episcopal see is Cathédrale Saint-Hyacinthe-le-Confesseur, dedicated to diocesan patron saint Hyacinth the Confessor (of Poland), in Saint-Hyacinthe, Quebec.\
There is also a decommissioned former Cathedral: now Église Saint-Matthieu, dedicated to the Evangelist Matthew, in Beloeil, Quebec.
## History
The Diocese of Saint-Hyacinthe was erected 8 June 1852 from territory split off from the then Diocese of Montréal and the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Québec. John Charles Prince was the first Bishop of St. Hyacinthe. At first, the old seminary building was used as a cathedral and residence; unfortunately, it burned in May, 1854. The bishop built a new residence as well as a chapel-cathedral. Bishop Prince showed untiring activity, founding twenty new parishes, establishing several missions, and in 1853 introducing from France the Sisters of the Presentation of Mary. The Sisters of Charity of the Hôpital Général of Montreal arrived in Saint-Hyacinthe in 1840 and soon established the Hotel-Dieu to provide health care for the community. In 1896, they became a separate pontifical congregation, the \"Sisters of Charity of Saint-Hyacinthe\". Bishop Prince died on 5 May, 1860, at the age of fifty-six.
Joseph La Rocque, had administered the diocese during the prolonged illness of Bishop Prince, and succeeded as the second bishop in 1860. During his tenure, the contemplative institute Sisters Adorers of the Precious Blood was founded in Saint-Hyacinthe by Catherine Aurelia Caouette. Eventually, feeling overwhelmed by the responsibilities, La Rocque resigned in 1865. He was followed by his cousin, Charles La Rocque, a man with rare financial ability. He closed the episcopal palace and relocated with his staff to the Église Saint-Matthieu-de-Belœil, where he combined the duties of bishop and pastor. La Rocque effectively reduced the cathedral debt and placed the diocese on a satisfactory money basis. In 1873, the Dominicans make their first foundation in Canada at Saint-Hyacinthe, where they establish a novitiate. The subject of a foundation was first broached by Bishop Prince, but the French superiors felt at that time that their own establishment was still too new. In 1874 Saint-Hyacinthe lost territory to the newly erected Diocese of Sherbrooke as did the Archdiocese of Québec and the Diocese of Trois Rivières.
Louis-Zéphirin Moreau became bishop in 1875. He founded the Sisters of St. Joseph of St. Hyacinthe. The Marist Brothers came from France and established their novitiate in the diocese. Maxime Decelles was appointed coadjutor to Moreau in 1893. The elderly Moreau left external administration and tiring visits to Decelles, who became bishop upon Moreau\'s death in 1901.Moreau was beatified in 1987.
Alexis-Xyste Bernard served as vicar-general for both bishops Moreau and Decelles; he succeeded Decelles in 1905.
## Statistics
As per 2017, it pastorally served 336,445 Catholics on 3,448 km^2^ in 83 parishes with 185 priests (93 diocesan, 92 religious), 30 deacons, 605 lay religious (122 brothers, 483 sisters) and 43 lay pastoral workers.

# 1987 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships
The **1987 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships** (*1987 WJHC*) was the 11th edition of the Ice Hockey World Junior Championship and was held in Piešťany, Trenčín, Nitra, and Topoľčany, Czechoslovakia. Finland captured its first World Junior gold medal, Czechoslovakia took silver, and Sweden the bronze. The tournament is most remembered, however, for how the medals were allocated.
## Punch-up in Piestany {#punch_up_in_piestany}
With 6:07 left in the second period of the final game of the tournament between Canada and the Soviet Union, Pavel Kostichkin took a two-handed slash at Theoren Fleury, sparking a fight between the two; the USSR\'s Evgeny Davydov left the bench to assist Valeri Zelepukin in a fight, who was already playing the game with a separated shoulder, and was being pummeled by Canadian forward Mike Keane. Davydov\'s intervention sparked one of the most infamous bench-clearing brawls in international hockey history.
The officials, unable to break up the brawl, walked off the ice and tournament officials eventually tried shutting off the arena lights, but the brawl lasted for 20 minutes before the International Ice Hockey Federation declared the contest null and void. An emergency meeting was held following the brawl that ended with the delegates voting 7--1 to eject both teams from the tournament, with the sole dissenter being Canadian Dennis McDonald. The Canadian team, disgusted at what they perceived to be a conspiracy against them, chose to leave rather than stay for the end-of-tournament dinner, from which the Soviet team were banned.
While the Soviets were out of medal contention, Canada was playing for the gold medal, and were leading 4--2 at the time of the brawl (they needed to win by at least five goals to claim the gold). Even had they lost the game, they were assured at least the bronze medal. Afterwards, Soviet hockey official Anatoly Kastriukov claimed that the hostilities were fueled by a Canadian trainer who he alleged had punched one of the Soviet assistant coaches in the stomach. Some Canadians maintained that the Soviets had started the brawl by leaving their bench first, and had deliberately done so with the intention of getting Canada ejected. Alan Eagleson suggested that the IIHF\'s decision would have been different had it been the Soviets in contention for a medal, and not the Canadians. Soviet administrator Yuri Korolev expressed regret that the incident occurred but did not admit any guilt. He felt that the game should have been finished instead of both teams being disqualified from the tournament.
The ejections of the Canadian and Soviet teams had the retroactive effect of making the Finland-Czechoslovakia game (played earlier the same day) the gold medal game, while the Sweden-United States game became the bronze medal contest, and the Poland-Switzerland game determined who placed fifth. The loser of the latter game (Switzerland) was relegated, just as they were had the brawl not occurred. Poland avoided relegation despite giving up 80 goals in 7 games.

# Kings of South Beach

The lead character is portrayed by Jason Gedrick; his best friend is portrayed by Donnie Wahlberg. The film premiered on March 12, 2007 on A&E.
## Background
The film is loosely based on a true story about the exploits of Chris Paciello, a transplanted New Yorker who was involved with the Mafia back in his hometown. He built a house of cards in South Beach, founded on models, money, and celebrity friends, including Madonna.
After an intense undercover investigation, Paciello was arrested on racketeering and murder charges, and went on to testify against known members and associates of the Colombo and Bonanno crime families.
## Cast

## Production
Filming took place entirely in Puerto Rico in 2006. The production received a 40% tax rebate from the Puerto Rico Film Commission.
## Reception
*New York Post* critic Linda Stasi rates *Kings of South Beach* as a \"four star film\" with a casting described as "perfect." Robert Bianco of *USA Today* describes \"Gedrick and Wahlberg as absolutely first-rate, as these fine actors tend to be.\" Scott Weinberg of *DVD Talk-Review*, however, called it \"obvious, listless, and completely predictable from start to finish\", and said that \"*Kings of South Beach* is little more than a very thin retread of several much better crime stories

# Sibley Railroad Bridge
The **Sibley Railroad Bridge** is a three-span through truss single-track railroad bridge belonging to the BNSF Railway between Jackson County, Missouri, and Ray County, Missouri, at Sibley. The bridge carries the BNSF Marceline Subdivision over the Missouri River. It is the only single-track segment of the subdivision. The original 1887--88 bridge was a three-span Whipple through truss and was later reconstructed with Parker through truss spans. Besides the freight trains of BNSF Railway, it is also used by Amtrak\'s *Southwest Chief*.
After reaching the south bank of the river, the tracks curve west and pass Kansas City Power & Light Company\'s Sibley Operating Station, a coal-fired electrical generating plant. A now-removed loop track around the plant formerly allowed coal delivery to the plant by rail. The plant\'s 757-foot chimney is visible from several miles away.
The bridge can be viewed from the observation deck of the Fort Osage visitor center

# Lonorore Airport
**Lonorore Airport** `{{airport codes|LNE|NVSO}}`{=mediawiki} or **Lonoror** (possibly from Ske *lon or or* \"in the fences\") is an airport on south-western Pentecost Island, Vanuatu, 3 km south of Baravet village.
## Overview
Lonorore began as a grass airstrip, capable of accommodating 20-seater Twin Otter aircraft in good conditions, although it was frequently unusable due to waterlogging in wet weather. The airport is in the middle of an old coconut plantation, and was first built as a private airstrip in colonial times by the plantation owner. The airport was upgraded in 2008--2009 with a longer, tarmacked runway capable of operating in most weather conditions and being used by larger ATR aircraft, though in practice the airport is still serviced only by Twin Otters, together with Islanders and small charter planes.
Lonorore is used for Air Vanuatu domestic flights to Port Vila and Santo, sometimes via Ambae. Schedules change regularly but there are typically flights on two or three days of the week. Between April and June the airport caters for significant numbers of day trippers from Port Vila who come to watch the weekly land-diving ceremonies.
Near the airport is a small post office (currently defunct) and an aid post. On flight days, women often set up markets near the airport, selling homegrown vegetables and homecooked food.
Lonorore is one of two airports on Pentecost, the other being Sara in the north. Lonorore is a long distance from Sara by road, but is occasionally used as an alternative airport by passengers from northern Pentecost when Sara is closed due to adverse weather or volcanic ashfall, as Sara is more vulnerable to these disruptions than Lonorore.

# Do You Remember the First Time?
\"**Do You Remember the First Time?**\" is a song by British rock band Pulp, taken from their fourth studio album, *His \'n\' Hers* (1994). With lyrics loosely based on Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker\'s loss of virginity, the song saw some controversy for its sexual topic. Released as the second single from *His \'n\' Hers*, the song reached number 33 in the UK, becoming the band\'s first top-40 hit in that country. The single was accompanied by a lengthy music video featuring celebrities discussing how they lost their virginity. The song has since become one of the band\'s most famous songs and has seen critical acclaim. The track also notably served as the band\'s opening song on their reunion tour setlist.
## Background
\"Do You Remember the First Time?\" features lyrics about losing one\'s virginity written by Pulp frontman Jarvis Cocker. Cocker loosely based his lyrics on the moment that he lost his virginity at the age of nineteen; he reportedly lost it with the purpose of losing it as a teenager. Cocker later recalled of the moment, \"I have no regrets about the first person I had sex with. We were both virgins, so neither of us were under any pressure to perform. It probably took me a long time to get any good at it, to get reasonable at sex\... I still don\'t know.\"
Because of the song\'s lyrical content, the band received some backlash. Cocker explained, \"We got a bit of stick for the fact that \'Do You Remember The First Time?\' was about sex, but it just seemed like a good subject, because it interests everybody. I mean, everybody\'s had a first time, or if they haven\'t, they\'re always thinking about it. Everyone\'s got a story to tell.\" Musically, the song featured uncredited contributions to then-touring guitarist Mark Webber, who, after years of collaborating with Pulp, would join the band in 1995. He recalled, \"I did write part of \'Do You Remember The First Time?\' \[which\] caused a bit of trouble for a while, I think, so I shut up about it. It was all a bit complicated, I wasn\'t really sure if I wanted to be more involved or not.\"
## Lyrics
The lyrics to \"Do You Remember the First Time?\" discuss losing one\'s virginity, though it also features the narrator pleading with a girl who is seeing someone else. As *Stereogum*\'s Ryan Leas writes, \"The title of course always pointed towards losing your virginity, but the narrative of the song also had to do with a man addressing his lover who keeps returning to another man.\"
Because of the song\'s title and its use as the band\'s opening song during its reunion shows, it has been described by Leas as \"a rallying cry for the Pulp reunion.\" Brad Sanders, also of *Stereogum*, wrote of the song\'s resonance during the band\'s reunion, \"By starting their shows with \'Do You Remember the First Time?,\' Pulp concedes that reunion tours are essentially nostalgia trips for a large portion of the audience. If you do remember the first time you saw Pulp, you want to relive it. If you don\'t, all you want is a credible facsimile.\" Sometimes, a \"sanitised\" version of the song was aired on TV and radio, with the lyric \"*I don\'t care if you screw him*\" changed to \"*I don\'t care if you*knew*him*\".
## Release
\"Do You Remember the First Time\" was released 21 March 1994 as the second single from the album, after \"Lipgloss\". The single charted at number 33 in the UK Singles Chart, the highest position the band reached to that point and the first Pulp single to reach the UK top 40. Cocker recalled of the single\'s performance, \"Unfortunately, we didn\'t go on \'Top of the Pops\' because they decided to have S\*M\*A\*S\*H on instead. That was disappointing, but still the movement was up.\" The B-sides to the French single---acoustic versions of \"Joyriders\", \"Dogs are Everywhere\" and \"Razzmatazz\"---were later released in the UK as the B-sides of CD2 of \"Common People\". On 7 October 1996, a special 7-inch vinyl single coloured brown was issued in the UK.

# Do You Remember the First Time?
## Reception
\"Do You Remember the First Time?\" has seen critical acclaim and has been labelled by many writers as one of Pulp\'s best songs. *Spin* called the song one of the band\'s best songs, while *Drowned in Sound* called the song \"the most gorgeously spiteful kiss-off ever put down on record.\" In an otherwise critical review of *His \'n\' Hers*, Matt Messbarger of the *Chicago Tribune* noted that \"the crooning of Jarvis Cocker about lost youth has its campy charms\" on the track.
*NME* readers ranked the song as Pulp\'s fourth best in a fan vote, calling it \"a giddy anthem for those who didn\'t feel they had a voice\" and concluding, \"Who better to articulate the horror of a bad sexual encounter than Mr. Cocker?\" *Stereogum*\'s Ryan Leas ranked it as the band\'s fifth best, while *Orange County Weekly* named the song as the number three Pulp song for beginners.
## Music video {#music_video}
To promote the release of the track, lead singer Jarvis Cocker asked fans to recount stories of their own \"first time\" sexual experiences. Cocker explained of the video\'s concept, \"People imagine that celebrities have this idealised life. Again, it\'s the thing about sex being shown in this idealised light and really you should do it on a beach at sunset and violins are going to be playing. And somehow, if you do it in the back of a Ford Cortina then you\'ve not done it properly. These famous people, all their introductions were as fumbling and untidy as anyone else\'s.\"
A short film was produced by Cocker and Steve Mackey, featuring loss of virginity stories from celebrities including Justine Frischmann, Jo Brand and John Peel; Cocker later called Peel \"one of the nicest people I\'ve ever met.\" This was made available on the *Sorted for Films & Vids* video, and later the *Pulp Hits* DVD. Cocker recalled of the video, \"I thought maybe people might try and make a joke out of it and not answer very honestly. But everybody answered very honestly indeed. I kind of knew these people vaguely before, but not properly so it\'s a good way of getting to know somebody by talking about that kind of subject.\"
The band had also asked Stephen Fry to appear, but were rejected. Cocker stated, \"We got told by his agent really gruffly, \'He does NOT talk about his private life!\' Oh, okay, you know.\"

# Brazilian snapper
The **Brazilian snapper**, (***Lutjanus alexandrei***) is a species of snapper native to the tropical waters of the Atlantic off the coast of Brazil.
## Taxonomy
The Brazilian snapper was first formally described in 2007 by the Brazilian marine biologist Rodrigo Leão de Moura and the American marine scientist Kenyon C. Lindeman with the type locality given as Camurupim Reef near Tamandaré in Pernambuco State, Brazil. The specific name honours the pioneering Brazilian naturalist Alexandre Rodrigues Ferreira.
## Description
The Brazilian snapper has a relatively deep body which has a mean depth which is around 40% of its standard length. It has a long pointed, snout and a large terminal mouth which is protractile. There is a row of conical teeth on each jaw with the anterior pair in the upper jaw enlarged into fang-like teeth which are visible when the mouth is closed. There are also pairs of canine-like pointed conical teeth in lower jaw. The vomerine teeth are arranged in an anchor-shaped patch, having an obvious extension behind its centre. The dorsal fin is continuous with 10 spines in its anterior portion and 14 soft rays in its posterior portion, there is a slight notch at the boundary between the spiny and soft rayed parts of the fin. The anal fin has 3 spines and 8 soft rays. The preoperculum is serrated and has a poorly developed notch and knob. This species is variable in colour but normally they are reddish marked with more or less clear vertical bands on the body and sometimes a diagonal band over the eye. The blue spots which are present on the faces of this species allow it to be identified in comparison with similar species, these run in an irregular line from the corner of the mouth to the edge of the operculum with another a brief row behind the eye and a small number dispersed on the cheek. The maximum standard length recorded for this species is 24.3 cm and the maximum published weight is 199.9 g.
## Distribution and habitat {#distribution_and_habitat}
The Brazilian snapper is found in the western Atlantic Ocean where it is endemic to the coast of Brazil. It has been recorded from the state of Maranhão to the southern coast of the state of Bahia in the Northeast Region. It can be found from the tidal shallows to a depth of 54 m on coral reefs, rocky shores, coastal lagoons with brackish water, mangroves and other shallow water habitats which have a mosaic of soft and hard substrates. Juveniles are commoner in mamgroves and other shallow water habitats, often in mixed schools with juvenile dog snapper (*L. jocu*).
## Biology
The Brazilian snapper, like other snappers, is a nocturnal predator and the adults are found either solitarily or in groups on reefs during the day, often mixed with dog snappers

# Mota Lava Airport
**Mota Lava Airport** `{{airport codes|MTV|NVSA}}`{=mediawiki} is an airport located on the island of Mota Lava, one of the Banks Islands in the Torba province in Vanuatu. Also known as *Valua Airport*, it is located on the eastern end of Motalava island, near the village of Aplow (formerly known as *Valuwa*).
## Characteristics
The airport is situated at an elevation of 63 ft above mean sea level. It has one runway, 900 m in length.
Out of the four airports in the Torba province, Valua Airport has the length and reliability advantage. Air Vanuatu coordinates all maintenance and rehabilitation programs of the building facilities, including the runway. Identical to other island aircraft ports throughout the archipelago, safety and security fencing is still lacking.
Valua airport is 12 km from the island\'s main center. There may be one or two four-wheel drive vehicles available on some flights, but their availability is not guaranteed. One can also hike to the island\'s center by foot in just under three hours. Water sources are scarce and many are unsafe for drinking. At times there are road markets, basically non-cooked island crops up for sale, with hot meals being occasionally served. No clinic or restroom can be found near the airport boundary

After Pittsburgh cut the lead to 13--11 with 9:04 remaining, Georgetown went on a huge run and led 28--13 with 2:58 left. The game was not close again. Jeff Green led all scorers with 21 points, while Roy Hibbert had 18. Hibbert also added eleven rebounds.

It was the Hoyas first conference tournament title since 1989 when Alonzo Mourning and Charles Smith led the way. Pittsburgh was in the championship game for the sixth time in seven years, but set a record for fewest points in a Big East final. Sam Young led the team with a meager 10 points. Pittsburgh\'s Aaron Gray had a season-low 3 points, going 1-of-13 from the floor

# EG (magazine)
***EG*** is a magazine which publishes endgame studies and discusses various aspects of the endgame in chess. The letters \"EG\" signify \"End Game\" and also the Latin phrase *exempli gratia*. While many chess magazines include sections for endgame studies, *EG* is unique for its exclusive focus.
## History
The magazine was founded by The Chess Endgame Study Circle, a British group of chess endgame study composers and enthusiasts, that formed on 16 March 1965. The eleven members included Robert ″Bob″ Wade, Hugh Blandford, and John Roycroft. Roycroft was the magazine\'s publisher for the first 102 issues, from July 1965 until 1991. Since then the Dutch company Alexander Rueb Vereniging voor Schaakeindspelstudie (ARVES) has been the publisher, but Roycroft stayed as editor-in-chief thereafter. The current editor-in-chief is Harold van der Heijden. The magazine is focused on endgame studies but in some cases includes practical endgames in articles. Another main focus is the collection and re-publication of awards for endgame study tourneys. In October 2019, the German endgame expert Karsten Müller joined the editorial staff with his own column aimed at practical players

# 2006 Big East men's basketball tournament
The **2006 Big East Men\'s Basketball Championship** was played from March 8 to March 11, 2006. The tournament took place at Madison Square Garden in New York City. It was a single-elimination tournament with four rounds. Villanova and Connecticut tied for the best regular season conference record. Based on tie-breakers, Connecticut was awarded the #1 seed.\
The Syracuse Orange won the tournament for the second consecutive season and fifth time overall, and were awarded an automatic bid to the 2006 NCAA Men\'s Division I Basketball Tournament. As a 9-seed, the Orange are the lowest seeded team to win the Big East tournament, and became the first school to win four games in the tournament. Gerry McNamara of Syracuse was given the Dave Gavitt Trophy, awarded to the tournament\'s most outstanding player.
Due to NCAA sanctions for the use of ineligible players, all of Syracuse\'s wins from the 2005--06 season, including its four Big East tournament wins, later were vacated.
## Syracuse\'s Run {#syracuses_run}
This tournament is best remembered for Syracuse\'s improbable run to the championship as a #9 seed, with McNamara pulling off excellent 3-point shooting and some improbable buzzer beaters and last-second shots to lead them. In the first game, after Devan Downey of Cincinnati stole the inbounds pass with ten seconds left and was fouled, he made one of two to put the Bearcats up two points. However, with just a half second left, McNamara made a running one-handed three-pointer to secure the victory, 74--73.
After jumping out to a big lead against Connecticut in the second game, UConn battled back for much of the game until they finally took their first lead of the game with 30 seconds to play. Incredibly, McNamara was the hero for Syracuse again, hitting a 30-foot three-pointer with 5 seconds left to send the game into overtime. The Orange went on to win 86--84, holding off the Huskies on a last-second effort. McNamara finished with thirteen assists, ten in the first half alone.
They faced Georgetown in the semifinals in their attempt to become the first team to win the Big East tournament as one of the teams forced to play on the first day, requiring four wins in a row. The Hoyas went up early, holding a fifteen-point lead at the half. McNamara sat out for ten minutes because of a nagging groin injury. Surprising everyone, McNamara came out in the second half and drained five three-pointers, including one with 45 seconds left and the Orange down four. Demetris Nichols knocked away the inbounds pass for Georgetown, allowing McNamara to take possession and rush down the floor with time running out. He passed to an open Eric Devendorf who laid the winning shot in with 1.5 seconds to go. The Orange had advanced to the finals, beating Georgetown, 58--57.
After improbably winning three straight games either in overtime or by one point, they got a slightly easier win in the finals against Pittsburgh, winning 65--61. The Orange led most of the game, but midway through the second half, the Panthers had taken the lead. McNamara quickly made a three-point shot after that and Josh Wright made four clutch free throws in the final minute to secure the historic championship. Syracuse had finished just 7--9 in the Big East that year, and would have likely been left out of the NCAA tournament had they not pulled off at least two of the four wins. They would go on to lose to Texas A&M in the first round of the tournament.
## Bracket
\* -- Overtime
**Notes:** By finishing below twelfth place during the regular season, DePaul, Providence, St. John\'s, and South Florida did not qualify for the tournament. The NCAA later vacated all of Syracuse\'s victories during the 2005--06 season, including its four tournament wins, because of the use of an ineligible player.
