75,524,478 | Mahmud ibn 'Ali al-Sarai | Maḥmūd ibn ʿAlī al-Sarāī was a fourteenth-century CE scholar, known from one of the main surviving works composed in Khwārazm Turkish. This was entitled نهج الفراديس (Nahjatü l-farādīs), is known in Turkish today as Nehcü’l-ferâdîs or Nehcü'l-feradis, and has also been known as Fezâilü’l-mu‘cizât. This appears to have been composed in 1358 and is similar in both language and content to the more widely attested Qiṣaṣ-i Rabghūzī by Nāṣir al-Dīn Rabghūzī. The text contains four sections, each divided into ten chapters. The first section describes the life of the Prophet Muḥammad; the second gives information about founding figures of Islam, including four caliphs and Fāṭima; the thirds discusses good deeds; and the fourth discusses bad deeds. As of 2006, over ten manuscripts were known. | [

75,524,588 | Dilemma (Green Day song) | "Dilemma" is a song by the American rock band Green Day, from the band's upcoming fourteenth studio album Saviors (2024). A music video was released alongside the single on December 7, 2023.
"Dilemma" was announced on December 4 on the band's Twitter account, revealing the song's release date as the 7th.
"Dilemma" has been described musically as punk rock and pop-punk.
Billie Joe Armstrong stated the meaning of the song “was one of those songs that was kind of easy to write because it was so personal to me. We’ve seen so many of our peers struggle with addiction and mental illness. This song is all about the pain that comes from those experiences.”
The song features a heavy drop D guitar riff which is not typical of the band.
The music video for the song, which was released on the same date as the single, begins in black and white and ends in color and features Billie Joe Armstrong drinking heavily at a show. It was shot at Alex's Bar in Long Beach, California. It was directed by Ryan Baxley.
All lyrics are written by Billie Joe Armstrong; all music is composed by Green Day.

The episode first aired on December 6, 1998. The song was featured as background music during a scene set in a local bar. "Staring at the Stars" became the subject of a years-long search by fans of the TV show as it was not mentioned in the end credits or in other sources such as the episode's IMDb page and had not been commercially released. The name of the song and the identities of its composers were finally discovered following a viral thread on X, formerly Twitter.
Marfisi and Jordan are musicians based in Los Angeles and had been requested to compose and record a country song by the TV show's producers. According to Marfisi, the song had to be "about an alien or a human being," while Jordan stated that it had to be "a love song from an alien abductee to the alien who disappeared." Marfisi also recalled that the song had to be done in four hours.
Following the viral X thread, Marfisi uploaded a lyric video on his band's YouTube channel. The duo have also announced on Marfisi's band's website that they had started working on releasing the song as a single. | [

75,524,642 | Annie R. Blount | Annie R. Blount (pen names, various, including Jennie Woodbine; 1839–unknown) was a poet, short story writer, and newspaper editor of the American South. She commenced writing at an early age, and many of her juvenile productions appeared in print under various signatures. She received a prize offered by a literary paper published in New Bern, North Carolina, for "the best story by any American writer".
Annie R. Blount was a native of Richmond County, Virginia, born June 22, 1839. Blount's mother died after the family removed to Augusta, Georgia. The African American woman, "Maumer" Rachael, was a second mother to Blount thereafter.
Until the age of 13, Blount was educated entirely at the country schools in her neighborhood, but after that time, entered the junior class of the Methodist Female College at Madison, Georgia, where she graduated at the age of 17 with the very highest honors the institution could confer, the president stating to the trustees and audience that she was the most perfect scholar he had ever graduated. A satirical poem on "The Follies of the Age", which she delivered on commencement day, was extensively circulated through the South, and received honors.
Forced by financial reverses in the family to make her own way in the world, she resolved to devote her time to literary pursuits.
After her graduation, Blount assumed the editorial conduct of a literary paper, the Bainbridge Argus, which, under her auspices, rapidly grew into public favor, and was widely circulated; she held the position for two years. In addition, she contributed to other Southern literary journals, including Southern Field and Fireside and Hygienic and Literary Magazine. In the Medical and Literary Weekly and elsewhere, she wrote under the name, "Jennie Woodbine".
Several times, Blount was the successful competitor for prizes offered for poems and novelettes. She received a prize offered by a literary paper published in New Bern, North Carolina, for "the best story by any American writer". This story, "The Sisters", was printed in 1859, in the Newbern Gazette. Mr. T. A. Burke, then editor of the Savannah News, commented:—
"An examining committee, composed of W. Gilmore Simms, the eminent novelist, Rev. B. Craven, President of the Normal College, N. C., and John R. Thompson, editor of the 'Southern Literary Messenger,' have awarded the first prize, a one-hundred-dollar gold medal, to 'Jenny Woodbine,' alias Miss Annie R. Blount, of Augusta, Ga., 'for the best story,' to be published in a Southern paper. We know Miss Blount well, and her success as a writer, both of prose and verse, is what her decided talent induced us to expect She is young-probably the youngest writer of any reputation in the country, North or South — and, with proper study and care, she has much to expect in the future."
In the summer of ——, Blount was invited by the trustees and faculty of Le Vert College, Talbotton, Georgia, to deliver an original poem at their annual commencement. The next summer, Blount delivered a poem at the "College Temple commencement, Newnan, Georgia. After the reading of the poem, the faculty of College Temple conferred on her the degree of "Mistress of Arts".
In 1860, Blount collected her poems and printed them in a book. The volume was dedicated to Hon. Alexander H. Stephens and issued by H. D. Norrell, Augusta, Georgia. Considering the unsettled state of the times,the book sold well, and was highly complimented by the press.
Blount was devoted to the Southern cause, and did all she could for the soldiers during the civil war. She was exceedingly anxious to go to Richmond, Virginia as a nurse. All of her male relatives were in the Virginia army, but her health was so delicate, her friends dissuaded her, and she tried to do all the good she could at home. The hospitals at Augusta, as the war progressed, became crowded with the sick and suffering. Blount went daily from ward to ward to help as she could, along with her "Maumer" Rachael.
In 1869, Blount was residing with her brother in Augusta.
John T. Perdue ("husband of 'Jennie Woodbine'") died in Georgia, October 1876. | [

75,524,725 | Algerian–Tunisian War (1813) | The Algerian–Tunisian War of 1813 was a conflict between the Regency of Algiers and the Regency of Tunis.
Since the Naval War of 1811, Diplomatic relations between Algiers and Tunis were disrupted by preparations and hostilities near the common border. Both sides were had a significant military presence nearby, in both Kef and Constantine. Although the idea of a peaceful settlement was embraced by both nations, on July 24, 1812, Algiers imposed a blockade of 19 sailboats on the port of La Goulette, situated in the northern part of Tunis. The imposition of the blockade was a manifestation of oppression against the Dey Hammuda ibn Ali, On August 10 the Admiral of Algiers, who was charged with the blockade, sent a letter from the Dey Hadj Ali in which he offered to sign a definitive peace treaty only if the Regency recognized the suzerainty of Algiers. Although the proposal was declined, Hammuda, who desired peace between the two nations, sent a cargo of oil to the Dey for the mosques in the capital.
The Algerian ships, still blockading the port, did not take any aggressive action for a couple of days. During that time the port were increased and had been placed in a state of readiness. The Tunisian army had strengthened their defense In Kef and its surroundings. The border fortification was the idea of the Tunisian Prime Minister, Youssef Sahab et-taba, who recently took the command of the Tunisian army. On the other side of the border in Constantine, the Bey of Constantine, Mohammed Nàmane, gathered a huge quantity of ammunition and troops in the city as well. This proved to be unnecessary since the Algerians began the offensive in La Goulette.
On July 23, 1813, The Algerian navy bolstered its forces at the port of La Goulette, numbering 54 sailboats and 25 Gunboats. The Algerian force managed to deal considerable damage to the Fort, but was forced to retreat to Algiers on August 4 after suffering considerable damage. This would lead to a surprise invasion of the Beylik of Costantine.
A couple of days later, Youssef launched an invasion of the Province but was pushed back by Nàmane, who successfully gathered enough troops to repel the Tunisians back across to the other side of the border. The two regencies suffered from terrible economic crises who were using all of their resources, all thought, The Tunisians were worried about the re imposition of the blockade or another invasion of Kef the following season. This led to the construction of another 60 Gunboats. On the Tunisian side however, Youssef managed to build a large army in Kef, with more than 40,000 Troops ready for the second invasion.
The war finally ended in December 1813, when the old Hammuda Pasha agreed to a peace, before dying on September 15, 1814. | [

75,524,754 | Ursula Bethell, Baroness Westbury | Ursula Mary Rose Bethell, Baroness Westbury CBE, JP (née James; 6 May 1924 – 25 November 2023) was a British peeress who served as superintendent-in-chief of St John Ambulance.
Lady Westbury was born Ursula Mary Rose James on 6 May 1924 at 21 Park Lane in Mayfair, the home of her maternal grandfather. Her father was the Hon. Robert "Bobbie" James (1873–1960), third son of Walter, 2nd Baron Northbourne, and Lady Serena Lumley (1901–2000), only daughter of Aldred, 10th Earl of Scarbrough. Portraits of Ursula and her younger sister Fay (1929–2002) by Bassano are in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery.
Growing up in aristocratic circles in Central London, she befriended Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret of York who lived at nearby 145 Picadilly. Ursula and Princess Elizabeth dined together at The Dorchester before her younger sister's coming-out ball at Apsley House in July 1947, the evening before the princess's engagement to Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten was announced.
She spent part of her childhood and the years of World War II at St Nicholas, her father's 17th-century home in Richmond in the North Riding of Yorkshire. Despite not being Roman Catholic, she was educated at the Convent of the Assumption in Richmond.
Lady Westbury's career with St John Ambulance began when she became County Vice-president of the East Riding of Yorkshire in 1954. Her grandfather Lord Scarborough had been Sub-Prior of the Order of St John, which oversees the ambulance brigade, from 1923 to 1943. In 1983, with Princess Margaret's encouragement, she accepted the position of superintendent-in-chief. In this role, she modernized and expanded the outreach of the organization. She organized a party in Hyde Park attended by Queen Elizabeth II to celebrate its centenary in 1988. She stepped down as superintendent-in-chief in 1990 and was made a Dame Grand Cross of the Order of St John, having already been made an Officer in 1975, a Commander in 1980 and a Dame in 1983. She was also made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire in the 1990 New Year Honours. From 1984, she also served as president of the Women's Electrical Association.
In her retirement, she was director of Toynbee Hall and the Brendoncare Foundation. She also sat on the grant sub-committee of the Royal Variety Charity.
On 21 October 1947, she married Captain The Hon. David Allan Bethell MC (1922–2001), grandson of Richard, 3rd Baron Westbury, at the Church of St Martin-in-the-Fields, London. Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret attended the wedding. In 1961, Bethell succeeded his older brother as 5th Baron Westbury. They had three children including Richard Nicholas Bethell, 6th Baron Westbury (born 1950).
Lady Westbury died on 25 November 2023, at the age of 99. | [

75,524,860 | Henrik Bolten | Henrik Bolten (7 December 1734 - 7 March 1790) was a German-born Danish merchant. In 1785, he was created a baron under the name von Bolten. His former home in Gothersgade is still known as Baron Boltens Gård-
Bolten was born as Heinrich Bolte on 7 December 1734 in Bremen. He was the son of coachman Johann Hinrich Bolte and Gesche Belings (Bählings). He later moved to Copenhagen where he apprenticed as a wine merchant (vintapper).
In 1763, he was admitted to the Wine Merchant's Guild (vinmtapperlauget) and he was the same year granted citizenship as a wine merchant in Copenhagen. In 1767, he was able to buy the large property known as Veltkuglen in Gothersgade. He immediately went on to construct a new building on the site.
Through his extensive transit trade in wines, he entered overseas trade, especially in the East and West Indies, and during the North American War of Independence, he became a very wealthy man through his expeditions with his own ships. He owned five ships.
His ambition to climb socially led him to propose to Conference Councilor Johan Friedrich Heinrich's very young daughter and, in connection with this, to aspire to the title of baron. He obtained this on 19 May 1783 for himself and descendants for, as it is emphasized, "his great merit of the particular East Indian trade". The reason, however, must have been that Bolten donated 40,000 Danish rigsdaler to the establishment of the Fødselsstiftelsen protected by the dowager queen. A few days after this appointment, however, Bolten had to stop his payments. He, like so many of Copenhagen's major merchants, had run into liquidity difficulties after the financial crisis caused by the Treaty of Versailles. When Ove Høegh-Guldberg arranged for the state treasury and the Kurantbanken to come to the aid of the distressed business community with substantial loans (more than two million Danish rigsdaler), Bolten received a total of 700,000 rigsdaler as a loan. At the same time, his estate, which was considered solvent by all, was put up for auction. The situation does not appear to have affected him in his dispositions. On 20 January 1783, he had replaced his citizenship as a wine merchant with the more prestigious citizenship of a wholesaler (grosserer). The same year he bought Sorgenfri for a summer residence. In June 1673, he was wed to Frederikke Sophie Heinrich (17641807). The next year he bought the estate Asserstrup on Lolland and the nearby Frederiksdal. He continued his property purchases there by acquiring Sæbygård and Ågård (in Løve herred) in 1785.
Shortly after the June term in 1785, however, Bolten ran into payment difficulties again. Guldberg had meanwhile been forced to resign, and despite recommendations both from the Finance College and from the tender commissioners Colbjørnsen, Johann Ludvig Zinn and Hans Rudolph Saabye, and despite the fact that the recorded status even showed a significant surplus, the government would not support him in any way, resulting in his bankruptcy. All his assets were realized at great loss. Sorgenfri was sold in 1789 to Crown Prince Frederik. Bolten was then a broken man. He spent the last years of his life in relative poverty as a tenant in the garret of his old property in Gothersgade. He died in 1792.
Henrik Bolten his wife were divorced in 1786. AShe was later married to Frederik Christopher Trampe til Løgismose (1779–1832). Her sister was married to the English-born sea captain and merchant John Christmas. | [

75,524,911 | Paulo Braga | Paulo Braga or Paulinho Braga (born 24 November 1942) is a Brazilian drummer and composer. He is considered an innovator in modern Brazilian drumming and one of Brazil's leading drummers, said by some to be the "father of modern Brazilian drums". He is best known for his long period playing with the "founder of bossa nova", Tom Jobim. Braga is said to have recorded more than 900 music tracks.
Braga was born on 24 November 1942 in Guarani in the state of Minas Gerais, later moving to the state capital, Belo Horizonte and then to Rio de Janeiro. In the 1960s he was a member of the Berimbau Trio, alongside Milton Nascimento (who was a double bass player at the time) and Wagner Tiso (pianist), playing in nightclubs in Belo Horizonte. Later, he joined pianist Antonio Adolfo's ensemble A Brazuca.
During the 1970s Braga was part of the band that accompanied the singer Elis Regina, when he "brought to traditional carioca samba influences from jazz, soul and funk", using "minimalism in the art of accompanying". During this period, he also worked as a studio musician, recording with Tim Maia, Milton Nascimento, Beth Carvalho, Raul Seixas, Rita Lee, Carlos Lyra, Emílio Santiago, MPB4, Sueli Costa, Nara Leão, Taiguara, Chico Buarque, Gal Costa, Djavan, Raimundo Fagner, Jards Macalé, Gilberto Gil, and Ivan Lins. He was also part of the group Som Imaginário [pt] with Nascimento as the vocalist.
Braga began playing with Tom Jobim in 1974, for the duet that the composer formed with Elis Regina in Los Angeles, which led to the LP Elis & Tom. Braga would record with Jobim again in 1981, on the album Edu & Tom, a duet with Jobim and Edu Lobo. Four years later, Jobim formed Banda Nova. Braga was a member from its formation until the death of Jobim in 1994, playing in world tours and on recordings. In 1995 he moved to the US, where he played with musicians such as Joe Henderson, Pat Metheny, David Sanborn, Michael Brecker and Gil Goldstein. With Henderson he was a drummer on some of the tracks of the album Double Rainbow: The Music of Antonio Carlos Jobim and Big Band. He also played with the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz All-Star Band. Other albums he played on included Uri Caine in Rio and Bossa Nova by John Pizzarelli.
In 2003, Braga released his first solo album with his own compositions, Grooveland. Two years later, beginning to divide his time between New York and Brazil, he became a member of the Jobim Trio, together with Paulo Jobim (guitar) and Daniel Jobim (piano), son and grandson of Tom Jobim. He released his second solo CD in 2006. In 2008, the Jobim Trio teamed up with Nascimento on a project that culminated in the album Novas Bossas, released in the same year, to honour 50 years of Bossa Nova. In 2009, this CD won the Brazilian Music Award as the best MPB (Música popular brasileira) recording of the year. | [

75,524,927 | Democratic Republic of the Congo–Israel relations | Formal diplomatic relations between Israel and the Democratic Republic of Congo have existed since 1962. Both countries are members of the United Nations. In 1973, like the majority of African countries that previously recognized Israel, Zaire (former name of the DRC) decided to break its relations with Israel under pressure from Arab countries after the Yom Kippur War, but quickly reestablished them, unlike other African countries, in the early 1980s.
In March 2020, Congolese President Félix Tshisekedi announced his intention to appoint an ambassador to Israel (where the DRC had, until then, been represented by a chargé d'affaires) and the creation of an economic section in Jerusalem.
The first meeting between the heads of the two states took place in August 1962, when Israeli President Yitzhak Ben-Zvi went to Léopoldville (now Kinshasa) and met his Congolese counterpart, Joseph Kasa-Vubu.
In the mid-1960s, while Che Guevara went to Zaire (now the DRC) to export the Cuban Revolution, Zairian President Mobutu Sese Seko, approached the Western camp in a context of the Cold War.
In October 1973, under pressure from Arab countries after the Yom Kippur War, Mobutu decided to break diplomatic ties with Israel, declaring that "Zaire must choose between a friendly country, Israel, and a brother country, Egypt. Now, between a friend and a brother, the choice is clear". Zaire would later become the first African country to reconnect with Tel Aviv in 1982, followed by Libéria in 1983, Côte d'Ivoire and Cameroon in 1986, and Togo in 1987.
During this resumption of relations, Mobutu and Ariel Sharon, Israeli Minister of Defense in Menahem Begin's cabinet, signed a military agreement to train and equip his presidential guard. Sharon also met, through Mobutu, Chadian President Hissène Habré, with whom Israel signed arms delivery contracts in 1983, in the context of the Chadian–Libyan War.
Israel's aid to Zaire continued in 1994 with the signing of a $50 million contract to send around forty Israeli military advisers to Kinshasa.
In 2012, the State of Israel opened an Honorary Consulate in Kinshasa. Aslan Piha was appointed Honorary Consul there until his death on 21 September 2023. To this day, the Honorary Consulate still handles day-to-day affairs without a head of post.
In June 2019, Joseph Kabila, Congolese president from 2001 to 2018, was accused of having recruited former Mossad agents to spy on his opponents.
In March 2020, Félix Tshisekedi, Congolese president since January 2019, travelled to the United States and participated in an annual conference organized by the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). He announced a resumption of diplomatic relations at the highest level between his country and Israel, and the upcoming appointment of a Congolese ambassador to Israel, where the Congo had previously been represented for twenty years by a chargé d'affaires.
Tshisekedi also announced the opening of a new commercial section of the DRC Embassy in West Jerusalem (while the embassy itself would remain in Tel Aviv), as well as his support for the Israeli-Palestinian peace plan proposed by US President Donald Trump This announcement provoked controversy in the DRC, as the plan was considered highly unfavourable to the Palestinians by the international community, and was rejected by the African Union, which Tshisekedi became the president of in 2021.
The Israeli NGO Africa 2030 is established in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, with the stated goals of ecological preservation and combating malnutrition.
Israeli businessman Dan Gertler, based in the DRC since 1997, is one of the main exporters of Congolese minerals, including diamonds, copper and cobalt. His position is explained by a monopoly allegedly granted to him by DRC President Laurent Désiré Kabila, as part of an agreement including financial compensation and arms deliveries from Israel. Since then, several NGOs and foreign governments have accused Gertler of plundering the DRC's resources, corruption, and complicity in the crimes committed by presidents Laurent Désiré et Joseph Kabila (son of the previous president) during the First and Second Congo Wars.
In 2013, the Africa Progress Panel indicated that the businessman deprived the DRC of $1.4 billion in revenue from mining licenses.
In 2017, Dan Gertler was sactioned by the US treasury alongside fourteen other people, accusing them of repeated violations of human rights. | [

75,525,099 | Lalla Ruqaya Al Amrani | Lalla Ruqaya Al Amrani (in Arabic: للا رقية العمراني), who died in 1902, was one of the wives of Sultan Hassan I and the mother of Sultan Moulay Abdelaziz.
Sharifa Lalla Ruqaya al-Amrani was the favorite wife of Sultan Moulay Hassan I. Lalla Ruqaya is described as a faqīha and a scholar. She is a woman who had acquired very advanced knowledge in Quranic studies.
Coming from an renown Moroccan family, she is the sister of Sharif Moulay Abdelslem Al Amrani who had command of certain military expeditions during the reign of her son Moulay Abdelaziz.
Her son Moulay Abdelaziz was educated in the house of Sidi Mohammed al-Amrani, one of the main sharifs of the Alaouite court. With the latter her son Moulay Abdelaziz had received his education in accordance with the tradition of the dynasty. After the disgrace of his elder brother Sidi Mohammed, Sultan Moulay Hassan I hastened to name him official heir to the crown.
Upon the ascension to the throne of her minor son, she was not granted the position of regent, Alawite traditions exclude women from this position. The regency was attributed to the vizier Ahmed ben Moussa. Her position was limited to remaining one of her son's main advisors, a position she maintained until after he reached 21 years-old, according to contemporary sources. There was real intimacy between mother and son, as they dinned together even as adults. Lalla Ruqaya was a woman with open political ideas for her time, she advised her son to bring the kingdom's mode of governance closer to that of the West.
Ahmed ben Moussa died in 1901, Moulay Abdelaziz was still subject to the influence of his mother for a time; she made him take as grand visir el-hadj el Mokhtar ben Ahmed, first secretary of the deceased grand vizier; he also chose as minister of war a former mokhzani of Si Ahmed, Si Mehdi el Menebih. Thus the policy of the old Makhzen still continued; but the hands which wielded it no longer had the same vigor: the sultan grew and showed himself impatient with any tutelage, threatening to ruin the rotten edifice of the Moroccan government. Soon Moulay Abdelaziz only listened to his impulses; he rejected his mother's advice and in April 1901, tired of the observations of el Hadj el Mokhtar, he dismissed his grand vizier.
Lalla Ruqaya died in 1902.

75,525,170 | List of NCIS: Hawaiʻi characters | This is an overview of regular and recurring characters on the TV series NCIS: Hawaiʻi.
Jane Tennant (portrayed by Vanessa Lachey) is the first female Special Agent-in-Charge of the NCIS: Hawaiʻi Field Office.
Born in Hawaii, Jane regularly moved around a lot due to her father being in the military. It's currently unknown if her parents are still alive or dead and if she is an only child or if she has any siblings.
When Jane was twelve years old, her father was stationed in Tama Hills, Japan and while there, young Jane took riding lessons. At the age of sixteen, Jane experienced racism as people began questioning where she came from as she didn't look like anyone. She informed them she was American but not everyone believed her with Jane later informing she didn't know where her mother really came from.
Jane later attended the University of Virginia, graduating with a double major in psychology and global studies. Following her graduation, she was headhunted by various government agencies who sought to recruit her with the State Department having a strong interest in her. Jane chose to apply to the Central Intelligence Agency where she met operative Maggie Shaw, who became her boss and mentor as well as her best friend, Jane unaware Maggie was in fact a traitor and a spy for the Chinese.
The undercover assignments Jane had with the CIA often had her overseas for long periods of time. At some point, she married Daniel Tennant, taking on his surname and had two children, Alex and Julie six years apart.
During an operation in Kabul, Afghanistan, she met NCIS Supervisory Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs and Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo Junior with Gibbs being impressed by Maggie's skillset and he wanted her to join with Gibbs leaving a business card for Jane with Rule 72, "Always be open to new ideas" written out on the back with Jane receiving it some time later.
In 2011, when Maggie put in for a desk job at the CIA's Headquarters in Langley, Virginia, she advised Jane to leave the CIA and join the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) so she could be closer to her then-husband and children.
Upon officially joining NCIS, Jane began attending classes at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC), one of her instructors being Greta Ford with Jane also graduating at the top of her class. At some point, during her career, she received the Medal of Merit three times, becoming the only NCIS agent to do so.
Upon joining NCIS, Jane served in numerous other areas before transferring to Hawaii. After some time as an agent working out of Hawaii, she was promoted to Special Agent in Charge of the NCIS Hawai'i Team. For unknown reasons, Jane and Daniel divorced in 2018 with Jane presumably gaining primary custody of their children. They originally tried counselling to save their marriage but it failed. Jane and Daniel remain friends to this day although things can be strained between them at times.
A year prior to the events of the Pilot, the NCIS: Hawaii team consisted of Jane, her second-in-command, Jesse Boone and a man named Jim Carter but at some point, according to Jesse, Jane fired Carter for putting himself above the team with Carter's replacement being NCIS Special Agent Lucy Tara.
At some point, another position on her team became vacant or was presumably created, Jane interviewed fifty highly-qualified candidates for the position including NCIS agent Kai Holman with Kai joining the team two weeks prior to the Pilot.
Kai Holman (portrayed by Alex Tarrant) is a new NCIS agent on the team who recently returned home to care for his father.
Born in Waimanalo, Hawaii, Kai was the son of Wally Holman and an unnamed woman. During his youth, Kai participated in the Interscholastic League and to this day, still holds the record for the most strikeouts. Years later, Kai's mother became sick and ultimately died, her death devastating Kai who chose to leave Hawaii altogether, joining the United States Marine Corps with his departure straining his relationship with his father. When he was on the mainland for the first time at the age of eighteen, Kai had his first racist experience when while off-base, a car passed and the people inside told Kai to go back to Mexico, unaware that Kai was in fact from Hawaii.
During his time in the Marines, Kai presumably served overseas and was presumably discharged. Rank of Staff Sergeant with 3rd Assault Amphibian Battalion. Kai then began working with the U.S. Army's Criminal Investigation Division, remaining with the CID for three years before he quit and joined NCIS, undergoing training at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Centre or FLETC before he graduated when one of his instructors told him stories of NCIS Special Agent G. Callen, an agent assigned to the NCIS Office of Special Projects in Los Angeles, California.
Upon discovering his father was ill, Kai learned of a vacant spot on the NCIS: Hawaii team led by NCIS Special Agent in Charge Jane Tennant with Kai being among fifty candidates who applied for the job, Jane personally interviewing every single one including Kai himself and eventually, Kai got the position, joining the team two weeks prior to the Prior.
At some point, he also became owner to a dog named Inoki.
Jesse Boone (portrayed by Noah Mills) is Tennant's confidant and second-in-command, Boone is a former homicide detective in Washington, DC, who knows the islands' hiking trails well.
Born in an unknown State, Jesse is the son of an unnamed man who was an engineer and an unnamed woman with Jesse also having a sister who's divorced. Jesse's grandfather was an outdoors man who taught him everything he knew about the woods.
During his time in Washington D.C., Jesse worked as a police officer and spent three years on the D.C.'s Joint Robbery Task Force and would spend many hours interrogating suspects and working on numerous cases. At the same time, though, he often received write-ups for insubordination.
One night, two of his colleagues, Hitchcock and Gomez responded to a call concerning an overdose involving the drug, fentanyl with the two men dying in the process, an incident that still haunts Jesse to this day. Jesse also investigated a case involving the murder of a female student, Jessica Gains who was attending Georgetown University and was strangled to death a week before her graduation was due to take place. He later started a habit of asking the lab to run the DNA found on her body once every year in the hope of getting a match and identifying a possible suspect for the killing but so far, the case has remained cold.
At some point, Jesse met Heather and married her, the couple having three children including a girl named Gracie and a boy named Jake with the couple also owning a cat and dog.
Sometime later, Jesse left the police, joining NCIS and undergoing training at FLETC before he graduated. He was later assigned to the NCIS: Hawaii team which presumably saw him moving his family to the island and soon became the Senior Special Agent of the team as well as the second-in-command of the team.
While living in Hawaii, Jesse developed a love for surfing and even began spending time at conversation weekends. He also spends his time helping to clean campsites while occasionally hiking, allowing him to use a paper map.
In spite of being an haola- an outsider, Jesse has a lot of respect for Hawaiian culture and nature.
Lucy Tara (portrayed by Yasmine Al-Bustami) is the junior field agent of NCIS: Hawaiʻi.
Born in Texas, Lucy is the daughter of an unnamed couple with Lucy having two older brothers and a sister.
Presumably after attending high school, Lucy attended a college and graduated from it. During her time in college, she displayed talent in poker and even played a lot online, having an account called "LuckyLucy007" but she retired the account. She later had a summer congressional internship where she carried other duties and gained the ability to read upside down.
Her parents were disappointed when Lucy revealed to them she wanted to have a career in law enforcement rather than go into the family oil business. When her sister held a bachelorette party, Lucy skipped it due to it taking part in a karaoke club. Lucy then joined NCIS, attended FLETC and graduated from it.
A year prior to the Pilot, as a result of Jim Carter being fired from the team, Lucy eventually joined the team as his replacement.
Ernie Malik (portrayed by Jason Antoon) is NCIS: Hawaiʻi's cyber intelligence specialist.
Born in an unknown state in the U.S., Ernie lived with his father and mother. However, Ernie's unnamed father wasn't around a lot during his childhood due to the fact that he was cheating on his wife with various girlfriends.
When Ernie was seven years old, his mother, tired of her husband's cheating ended up kicking her husband out of the house for good with Ernie's father living nearly a mile away from them. As such, Ernie grew up with only his mother in his life.
Refusing to be disappointed about his father's absence, Ernie began focusing on his education and was accepted to every single college he applied to with a full ride. He ultimately went to CalTech and presumably graduated.
After that, Ernie tried to show his father what he had accomplished without him, only to discover his father had moved to South Carolina months before with his father dying in August 2022 and leaving Ernie his house. Presumably after college, Ernie joined the NSA and spent an unknown number of years, working with the agency, composing various files on numerous criminals.
He later resigned from the NSA, heading to NCIS where he now works as the main computer specialist on the NCIS Hawaii team.
Kathrine Marie "Kate" Whistler (portrayed by Tori Anderson) is a former Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) Officer. Later on she became a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Special Agent and NCIS-FBI liaison.
Born in an unknown State, Whistler was the daughter of an unnamed couple and also the sister of Noah Whistler.
After finishing high school, she began attending Northwestern University where she was also part of a sorority while Noah went on to join the United States Marine Corps, rising to the rank of Captain. In 2009, tragedy struck when Noah died during an ambush in Taji, Iraq.
After presumably graduating from Northwestern, Kate practised for some time before she ultimately joined the DIA- Defense Intelligence Agency. While with the DIA, she was stationed in DC and while at a conference in Hawai'i, met NCIS Special Agent Lucy Tara at a bar.
At some point, an unnamed FBI Special Agent in Charge took Kate under his wing, serving as her mentor.
In later years, Whistler became a liaison between the DIA and NCIS, often arriving at NCIS Hawaii Headquarters in Pearl Harbor to provide NCIS Special Agent Jane Tennant and her team with information concerning their latest case, essentially cutting across a lot of red tape or to warn them to back off if her DIA superiors believed the case the NCIS Hawaii team was investigating had access to highly-classified knowledge the team wasn't cleared for.
It's also presumed that her job at the DIA was that of an officer as she was not seen carrying a sidearm or working in the field.
Alex Tennant (portrayed by Kian Talan) is Jane Tennant's son and eldest child.
Captain Joe Milius (portrayed by Enver Gjokaj) is the Deputy Chief of Staff to Commander, Pacific Fleet, who is later reassigned to the Pentagon. He is also Jane's love interest; when his transfer was official, the two finally consummated their relationship.
Julie Tennant (portrayed by Mahina Napoleon) is Jane Tennant's daughter and youngest child.
Maggie Shaw (portrayed by Julie White) is a former agent with the CIA, who served as the mentor and friend of NCIS Special Agent in Charge Jane Tennant. However, she was revealed to be a double agent/spy for the Chinese and the mother of wanted spy, Bao.
Captain Norman 'Boom Boom' Gates (portrayed by Sharif Atkins) is a reserved Gunnery Sergeant in the United States Marine Corps and also an explosive expert with the NCIS: Hawaii team as well as a member of the Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) unit in Hawaii.
Commander (Dr.) Carla Chase (portrayed by Seana Kofoed) is the medical examiner assigned to Joint Base Pearl Harbor–Hickam.
Daniel Tennant (portrayed by Anthony Ruivivar) is Jane's ex-husband and father of her children. | [

75,525,211 | Sarah McCreanor | Sarah "Smac" McCreanor (born 2 August 1992), known online as the Hydraulic Press Girl, is an Australian actor, dancer, comedian and content creator. She is known for her series of TikTok videos in which she moves her body to imitate objects being crushed in hydraulic presses. Among other activities, she performed in about 70 television commercials.
McCreanor was born on 2 August 1992 in Brisbane, Australia. Her training as a dancer and interest for humour was largely inspired by Australian comedy duo Lano and Woodley, as well as American physical comedy group the Three Stooges and actor Jim Carrey. At the Queensland Academy for Creative Industries, McCreanor majored in Theatre and Visual Arts, graduating in 2009.
From 2012 to 2013, she starred in the How to Train Your Dragon Arena Spectacular show, sharing her role of Astrid with American actor Gemma Nguyen. Premiering in Australia, the show toured across other countries and wrapped in Los Angeles, California. McCreanor decided to migrate to the city permanently. Afterwards, a significant portion of McCreanor's revenue originated from her work in the commercial industry; from 2013 to 2022, she took part in around 70 commercials. She produced promotional content for companies such as Netflix, Levi's and Warner Bros. Besides acting in TV shows and music videos, McCreanor was a dance participant in the American version of So You Think You Can Dance and Dancing with Myself in 2019 and 2022, respectively. She has also frequently made photography sessions and owns production studios in downtown Los Angeles.
On the Internet, McCreanor started making videos of herself imitating animals. Overtime, she noted many reaction videos to footage of objects being crushed in hydraulic presses. McCreanor considered that the people reacting to it were mostly doing so by merely changing facial expressions without talking. This made her start Hydraulic Press Girl, a series of videos in which she makes body movements with colourful clothing to mimic an object being crushed, with both her dance and the object video shown side-by-side. She posted the first Hydraulic Press Girl video in December 2020 on TikTok with footage from the YouTube account Hydraulic Press Channel. In her words, Hydraulic Press Girl portrayed art as more of a "living fluid [...] than a static inert sort of object we admire at a distance." According to her website, the series probably began getting viral in early 2021, and since that year, she began using her own small press for the videos. She celebrated her 100th "press" in June 2022.
The viral Hydraulic Press Girl series has been regarded as the main contributor to her online fame. Roberto Badillo of El Heraldo de México considered McCreanor one of the most admired influencers of her country. She reached over 1.2 million YouTube subscribers and 1 billion views by December 2023. On TikTok, she had over 1.6 million followers by October 2021 and over 2.6 million by December 2022.
She was listed in Adweek's 2022 Creative 100 awards, with Natalie Venegas praising her "quirky and fun" online videos and collaborations with other creators. In Meta Platforms' 2022 "Creators of Tomorrow", McCreanor was acknowledged for "Creative Excellence". The National Gallery of Victoria chose clips from the Hydraulic Press Girl series to be shown at its 2023-24 Triennial exhibition. The gallery's marketing team wrote that McCreanor's work had a "union of inconsequential violence and humour, irony and performance [that] culminate in a visceral response to the potential of the human body".
In a viral November 2022 TikTok video, McCreanor shared private messages from an unnamed influencer to the Instagram business account of a studio that McCreanor ran, Billy Studios. After McCreanor had allegedly rejected the influencer's request to make a photo session in the studio for free, the influencer sent voice notes criticising the studio for not knowing "how influencers work". The anonymous person reportedly spammed McCreanor and the studio's website with emails and complaints. Viewers mostly believed that the unnamed influencer was Amy Roiland, fashion blogger and sister of Rick and Morty creator Justin. Amy's TikTok account was deactivated shortly after McCreanor's postings, which have since become unavailable in McCreanor's account. Mara Leighton of Business Insider opined that the occurrence showed the "culture of entitlement" present in the influencer community. | [

75,525,282 | First Trust (company) | First Trust is an American financial services firm based in Wheaton, Illinois. The firm is primarily engaged in issuing exchange-traded fund (ETF) products. However, it is also involved with other products such as unit investment trusts (UIT), mutual funds, and separately managed accounts for institutional investors.
First Trust was one of the first ETF providers to offer smart beta funds and thematic ETFs. Despite being one of the largest ETF issuers as well as UIT issuers, the firm has maintained a low profile.
In 1967, Robert Van Kampen, who had previously worked at Nuveen, co-founded an investment banking firm, Van Kampen, Wauterlek & Brown, which was later renamed to Clayton Brown & Associates. In 1974, he left the firm to found another firm, Van Kampen Merritt, that was later acquired by Xerox in 1984.
In September 1991, Van Kampen founded another firm named Nike Securities in Chicago after Xerox announced it would discontinue its investment banking business to focus on asset management products such as UITs. Nike Securities acquired the UIT business from Clayton Brown & Associates and added 40-50 employees. At the time, Clayton Brown & Associates had sponsored more than $6 billion of UIT under the First Trust name, and the UIT division accounted for 30% of its business. James Bowen, who was previously the head of the UIT division, was selected to head up the new operation at Nike Securities.
On October 29, 1999, Van Kampen died, leaving speculation on whether his family would consider selling or entering a strategic alliance regarding Nike Securities. At that time, Nike Securities sold over $5 billion annually in UITs and administered $15.2 billion in UIT assets. With a pretax profit of $9 million, it was estimated Nike could fetch $45 million to $63 million in a sale.
Nike Securities was later rebranded to First Trust, the brand name under which its UIT products were sold.
In December 2006, First Trust launched the First Trust Value Line Dividend Index on the American Stock Exchange which was the first closed-end fund to convert to an ETF.
In 2010, Bowen bought First Trust from Van Kampem's family, making him the firm's owner.
In the first quarter of 2013, First Trust entered the European ETF market by launching three smart beta ETFs.
According to The Wall Street Journal in 2019, First Trust is the sixth largest employer of Wheaton is one of the top three employers of Wheaton College graduates.
First Trust's success in the ETF business is due to several factors. It tends to ignore fee wars and charges higher fees compared to its peers. The firm has been noted to offer unique strategies in its product lineup that cannot be found elsewhere. First Trust also focuses on the retail advisor market and relies on strong relationships with investment advisors to sell the products to the clients. It does not offer Robo-advisor services.
Business Insider has reported that First Trust's executives have posted controversial comments on Twitter under their real names and titles. Chief economist Brian Wesbury tweeted that COVID-19 vaccine mandates were similar to slavery, George Floyd protests were riots done by thugs, and that every clerk should be fired as a result of the leak regarding Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade. Deputy chief economist Bob Stein stated the George Floyd protests should be described as pogroms and tweeted at the New York Yankees Twitter account to mock it for tweeting facts about gun violence after the 2022 Buffalo shooting. Although both did get temporarily suspended from Twitter, they did not seem to get in trouble with the company or its clients. It was speculated that they evaded more blowback since First Trust is a private company. In 2017, Bowen told the audience at the Fearless Investing Summit that his company was "privately held, so if you hate me, I could care less." | [

75,525,312 | M. H. Fisk | Melancton Hogeboom Fisk (May 28, 1843 – December 3, 1906) was an American physician and Wisconsin pioneer. He was the first mayor of De Pere, Wisconsin. His brother, William J. Fisk, was a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly. His name was usually abbreviated as M. H. Fisk. His first name was sometimes spelled "Melancthon".
M. H. Fisk was born in the town of De Pere, Wisconsin, in May 1943. He was raised and received his primary education there, but was then sent to Hopkins Academy in Hadley, Massachusetts, to prepare for higher education. He returned to Wisconsin to attend Lawrence University in Appleton, Wisconsin. While in his senior year at Lawrence, he was part of a class of Lawrence students who all enrolled for duty in the Union Army in the midst of the American Civil War, in the Spring of 1864. They became part of the 40th Wisconsin Infantry Regiment, called the "Normal Regiment" because of the large number of students and teachers in the regiment.
Fisk's Union Army service was brief but eventful. The 40th Wisconsin Infantry was a 100-day regiment, and they were sent to Memphis, Tennessee, along with the 39th Wisconsin and 41st Wisconsin, to relieve other regiments and allow them to move further south. They were defending the city during the Second Battle of Memphis, when Confederate cavalry rushed into the city attempting to free prisoners from Irving Block prison and trying to influence the Union Army to pull back forces from other fronts. The Wisconsin regiments repelled the Confederate cavalry and defended the prison. The 40th Wisconsin Infantry mustered out of federal service on September 16, 1864.
After his war service, rather than returning to Lawrence, Fisk chose to study medicine. He attended the Ann Arbor Medical School, where he completed his M.D. in 1866. He returned to De Pere and began a medical practice there. After five years, he took an additional course of study at Bellevue Hospital Medical College in New York, then returned to De Pere to continue his work.
Politically, Fisk was affiliated with the Democratic Party for most of his life, though he refused to vote for the populist William Jennings Bryan in the 1896 United States presidential election. He was active in local politics, and after the city of De Pere was incorporated in 1883, he was elected the first mayor of the city. He served three consecutive terms before leaving office in 1886, when he moved to Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. In Wauwatosa, he had an extensive medical practice and served as a consulting physician at the Milwaukee County Hospital and the Asylum for the Chronic Insane.
He suffered from cancer of the tongue for several years, and eventually died of the cancer on December 3, 1906.
M. H. Fisk was the sixth of seven children born to Judge Joel S. Fisk and his wife, Charlotte Ann (née Green). Joel Fisk was an important pioneer of Green Bay, Wisconsin, responsible for the first lumber mill constructed in that area and the first grist mill at Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. He also served several years as postmaster at Green Bay and register of the U.S. Land Office. The Fisk family were descended from Phinehas Fiske, a Puritan, who fled persecution in England and came to the Massachusetts Bay Colony about 1642, becoming one of the first settlers at Wenham, Massachusetts.
M. H. Fisk's eldest brother was William Justan Fisk, a prominent early businessman and Republican politician in Brown County, Wisconsin. He served three consecutive terms in the Wisconsin State Assembly in the 1870s and was an officer in several banks.
Another brother, Valentine Saterlee Fisk, traveled to Kansas at the outbreak of the American Civil War and enlisted in the 8th Kansas Infantry Regiment, serving for three years and mustering out with the rank of captain.
M. H. Fisk married Mary Joy Lawton at De Pere, on October 19, 1868. Mary Joy Lawton was the daughter of George Lawton and niece of Joseph G. Lawton. The Lawtons were descended from John Layton, a large landowner in New Netherland who feuded with Governor Peter Stuyvesant around the time of the English takeover of the colony. Fisk had two children with his wife, though one died in infancy. Their only surviving son was Raymond Dousman Fisk. | [

75,525,404 | Tornado outbreak of December 9–10, 2023 | A significant, late-season severe weather and tornado outbreak affected portions of the Southern United States, primarily across the states of Tennessee, Kentucky, and Mississippi. Tennessee took the brunt of the outbreak with multiple damaging tornadoes touching down including a high-end EF1 tornado that damaged a National Guard Armory site near Dresden, a long-tracked, intense EF3 tornado that caused heavy damage in northwestern portion of Clarksville, and another strong, long-tracked high-end EF2 tornado that prompted a tornado emergency for the city of Hendersonville. The tornadoes killed seven people and injured 71 others, including 61 from the Clarksville tornado. The tornado outbreak scored 15 points on the Outbreak Intensity Score, ranking it as a significant tornado outbreak. This system also caused significant winter storm impacts to the Northeastern United States.
On December 5, the Storm Prediction Center issued a Day 5 severe weather risk ahead of predictions that strong convective instability and wind shear would occur across portions of the Southern United States, from east Texas to western Mississippi. By December 7, a slight risk was posted in a large region from Louisiana to Kentucky. Uncertainties remained however over the instability of airmass, and the development of low-level flow conducive to tornadic thunderstorms. By the next day, the slight risk was maintained for the same general area, and a 5% risk corridor for tornadoes was introduced for all of the northern sections of the main risk area, extending from extreme eastern Texas, south and southeastern Arkansas, northern Mississippi, northwestern Alabama, western and central Tennessee, and southwestern Kentucky. In this outlook, the SPC described the atmosphere and conditions as favorable for severe weather, as convective available potential energy (CAPE) values reached 500 J/kg in the main risk area, favorable low-level wind shear ahead of the expected upper-level trough, and moderate instability were all present to allow for sustained thunderstorm development.
On December 9, the outlook was maintained at slight risk up until 1630 UTC. In this last outlook, the main 5% corridor was enlarged to include portions of extreme northwestern Georgia, most of northern Alabama, and central portions of Tennessee, all the way to the Knoxville vicinity. Elevated dew points reaching 60s °F were expected to be present ahead of the passing of an advancing cold front, which in combination with the aforementioned factors, created a very favorable atmosphere for severe weather. However, uncertainties in the extent of the tornado threat were still sufficient to avoid a categorical upgrade. The first area of concern identified by the SPC was from southeastern Arkansas northeastward through parts off Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee into southwestern Kentucky. Within this area, tornadoes and large hail were expected to be the primary hazards with isolated supercells before the damaging wind potential increased as storm coverage increased. The first of what would be eight tornado watches during this event was issued shortly before this outlook, mentioning a moderate (60%) chance for tornadoes, and a low (20%) probability for strong (EF2+) tornadoes.
This intense tornado touched down approximately 5 miles (8 km) south of Fort Campbell North, Kentucky in Montgomery County, Tennessee and moved northeast. After initially causing minor EF0 tree damage, the tornado quickly intensified to high-end EF1 intensity, completely destroying the Clarksville School of Fine Arts, inflicting heavy roof damage to homes and a church, and snapping several large trees. For nine days, the National Weather Service did not release a specific rating for the school’s damage, but noted that the tornado “destroyed a building next to a church”. On December 18, the National Weather Service surveyed and rated the damage to the school high-end EF1 with winds estimated at 110 miles per hour (180 km/h), however, the building was marked as a motel, rather than a school. Further rapid intensification occurred, and the tornado reached EF2 intensity as it passed just north of SR 374 and through multiple neighborhoods in the northwestern city limits of Clarksville. Numerous poorly anchored homes in this area were shifted off their foundations and leveled, many other homes had their roofs partially to completely removed, and hundreds of trees were snapped. A person who was injured when her mobile home was destroyed died from her injuries a week after the tornado struck the area. The tornado then further intensified to high-end EF2 intensity, crested a hill, and entered a heavily wooded area, where dozens of mobile and manufactured homes south of Britton Springs Road were completely obliterated with some being swept away with no debris left behind. The tornado killed three people here, including a ten-year-old boy. Additional homes suffered partial to total roof removal, another poorly anchored home was shifted off its foundations and leveled, and hundreds of trees were snapped.
As it crossed US 41A in the community of Ringgold, the tornado briefly intensified to low-end EF3 strength with wind speeds up to 140 mph (230 km/h) and destroyed a strip mall with only interior walls left standing. Vehicles in the strip mall parking lot were flipped over, several other business were also destroyed, a church lost its roof, and more trees were snapped. The tornado slightly weakened, but remained strong at high-end EF2 intensity, flipping multiple 18-wheelers at a post office, inflicting significant roof and exterior wall damage to multiple well-built apartment townhouses, shifting and leveling more poorly anchored homes while inflicting severe roof and exterior damage to others, and snapping more trees. Continuing northeastward, the tornado crossed a wooded area surrounding the Little West Fork Creek before strengthening to its peak intensity as it struck a subdivision just south of the West Creek High School. Four two-story brick and vinyl homes in this subdivision were completely leveled, with debris from the homes scattered 200 yards (180 m) towards the northeast. All homes received ratings of EF3, with winds estimated at 150 mph (240 km/h). The National Weather Service noted that at this time, the tornado was “very narrow and intense” and they also noted that the homes were partially screwed and anchor bolted to the foundation, with mostly nails being used as the foundation anchoring. Other two-story homes in the area had their roofs partially or completely removed with exterior walls knocked down, including multiple homes that had their entire second floors removed, the nearby West Creek Elementary School sustained roof damage, and hundreds of trees were snapped as well. The tornado then weakened slightly to low-end EF3 intensity as it crossed Peachers Mill Road, where it struck an apartment complex. Two dozen brand new, two-story apartment buildings were severely damaged, with at least a dozen of them having their roofs entirely torn off. Winds in this area were estimated to be at 140 mph (230 km/h). As the tornado continued towards Tennessee-Kentucky border, it caused severe EF2 roof damage to dozens of homes in neighborhoods along Needmore Road and SR 236, leaving behind cycloidal ground scouring in fields between the two areas. The latter area also had several apartment or condo buildings sustaining high-end EF2 damage along with at least two dozen steel electrical poles being bent. As the tornado crossed I-24 at the SR 48 exit, it uprooted numerous cedar trees and collapsed a portion of a warehouse. Northeast of the interstate, the tornado impacted several neighborhoods and subdivisions, producing widespread EF1 to EF2 damage to over 100 homes, many of which had roofs partially or totally removed along with some exterior wall collapse. Some additional tree damage also occurred before the tornado crossed into Kentucky In all, the tornado struck at least 1,000 homes and dozens of businesses in the Clarksville, Tennessee area with at least 114 homes were destroyed and 268 others sustained major damage.
The tornado then moved northeastward into Todd County, Kentucky, where damage was mainly confined hundreds of trees being snapped and uprooted while the tornado traveled through rural areas and over US 41 to the north of Guthrie at EF1 to EF2 intensity. At least a dozen outbuildings were damaged or destroyed of the county, including a silo that was blown over and barns that were leveled, and homes suffered generally minor to moderate roof and garage door damage, although at least one home suffered severe roof and exterior damage. Just before crossing into Logan County, the tornado crossed US 79 and moved through the southern part of Allensville at EF2 intensity. At least 51 structures were struck by the tornado with several outbuildings being destroyed, homes suffering moderate roof damage with some partial removal noted, and dozens of trees being snapped. Debris from the structures was blown into farm fields as the tornado continued into Logan County. The tornado weakened to EF1 after crossing into the Logan County, damaging crops, trees, and outbuildings. It strengthened again to low-end EF2 intensity as it struck the community of Lickskillet, where every structure was damaged. A well-built two-story house in the town sustained extensive roof damage, had its foundation shifted, windows blown out, and three vehicles thrown and severely damaged. Two barns were also destroyed with the impalement of barn boards into the home noted. The tornado then weakened back to EF1 strength as it moved further northeast, but continued to inflict severe roof damage to homes, damage or destroy outbuildings, and snap or uproot trees for several more miles. The tornado then struck the community of Williams Store along KY 96 at EF1 intensity, damaging multiple homes and outbuildings, including one home that had parts of its middle section blown out. The tornado then continued moving northeastward at EF0-EF1 intensity, causing additional damage to homes and trees and damaging or destroying more outbuildings as it crossed US 431 and KY 100 south of Russellville. It then continued south of Auburn, where an outbuilding had its roof collapsed, and additional outbuilding, residence, and tree damage was noted. The tornado crossed into Simpson County, where it damaged the siding from an outbuilding roof, before finally dissipating.
In total, the tornado killed four people and injured 61 others along its path of 47.76 miles (76.86 km) while reaching a maximum width of 600 yards (550 m). The fourth victim passed away a week later due to complications from their injuries. 114 homes were destroyed while another 857 were damaged, and at least 20,000 people were without power after the tornado in Clarksville alone. The tornado also caused $45,000 in uninsured damage to the Clarksville School of Fine Arts. Originally, the school was set to have a Christmas play on December 9 at 1 p.m. However, to accommodate a student leaving the country, the play was moved up to December 2, which had 300 in attendance. The director of the school later stated, “If we would have had 300 people in the building on the ninth instead of the second, we would be talking about the destruction of possibly hundreds of lives because there’s nothing left of the theater.”
This strong tornado was first observed by numerous storm spotters and residents at 4:39 p.m. CST (21:39 UTC) before tracking through areas of the Nashville metropolitan area. The tornado initially touched down near Trail Hollow Lane just to the east of I-24 and began tracking east-northeast, causing minor EF0 damage to trees and residences. The tornado then quickly intensified, reaching high-end EF1 intensity as it approached and crossed US 31W/US 41. Multiple outbuildings and warehouses were heavily damaged or destroyed, a motel suffered severe damage, and multiple trees were snapped. Further to the northeast, additional damage occurred to the residences, trees, power lines as the tornado crossed Old Hickory Boulevard (SR 45) and I-65. Significant intensification occurred as the tornado entered the north side of Madison, where dozens of trees and power poles were snapped or uprooted and numerous buildings, including businesses, warehouses, churches, and residences were significantly damaged or destroyed at EF2 intensity. All three fatalities occurred in this area along Nesbitt Lane, where multiple mobile homes were destroyed. Right before crossing US 31E, the tornado impacted an electrical substation, triggering multiple large power-flashes before causing a large explosion when it impacted an oil reservoir. The explosion, as well as direct heat from substation, caused a drop in relative humidity inside the tornado's condensation funnel, which in turn significantly reduced the tornado's visibility. The explosion was seen and captured by numerous residents inside the Nashville metro; it was also streamed live by a public live camera in Hendersonville. This was the first time a tornado had directly struck a Nashville Electric Service power substation since the 1974 Super Outbreak.
The tornado continued past the substation and crossed US 31E while maintaining EF2 intensity heavily damaging or destroying homes and warehouses and snapping or uprooting trees and power poles. The tornado continued northeastward and reached its peak intensity of high-end EF2 as it moved along and over the Cumberland River and Old Hickory Lake into the western part of Hendersonville in Sumner County. Hundreds of trees were blown down at the Old Hickory Dam, multiple buildings and warehouses at the dam site and a nearby marina were heavily damaged or destroyed, and a 75 ft (23 m) microwave tower was crumpled to the ground. The tornado then weakened to high-end EF1 intensity as it approached and moved through the center of Hendersonville along US 31E. Heavy damage occurred throughout the area with multiple businesses at a strip mall having heavy roof damage with some exterior wall collapses, several warehouses, other businesses, and outbuildings being heavily damaged or collapsed, homes suffering severe roof, siding, and exterior wall damage, and dozens of trees and power poles being snapped or uprooted. One two-story home in the area also had its entire roof removed with severe damage to the second floor's exterior walls. Past Hendersonville, the tornado caused more sporadic damage, mainly in the form of downed trees and snapped power poles. Some homes and businesses suffered roof and siding damage and a barn was heavily damage with debris from the structure damaging a home. Two homes near the SR 386/US 31E interchange suffered heavy roof damage with one of them also having its garage cave in. As the tornado approached Station Camp Creek, more homes, apartments, and condos were damaged, including another two-story home that had second floor roof removed, a gas station canopy was blown over, and more trees were snapped.
After crossing the creek, the tornado intensified as it moved into neighborhoods to the southwest of Gallatin from the southwest. Multiple well-built homes in the area suffered partial to complete roof removal, other homes suffered minor to moderate roof damage, trees were snapped (including at least one that fell on a home), and a metal truss tower was collapsed. Damage in this area was rated high-end EF1 to EF2. The tornado weakened to EF1 intensity again, but continued to cause heavy damage to homes as it moved through the southern part of Gallatin and crossed SR 109. Several homes had their roofs partially or totally removed and many trees and power poles were knocked down. Warehouses at the nearby Music City Executive Airport were also heavily damaged and more homes northeast of there had varying degrees of roof damage, with another home having its roof removed, along with more down trees. The tornado then passed just south of Cairo, heavily damaging an old barn country store along SR 25, knocking down trees, and inflicting minor damage to outbuildings at it passed north of Castalian Springs. It then continued into Trousdale County, inflicting one last area of EF1 damage to trees near Templow before it dissipated northwest of Hartsville.
The tornado killed three people and injured another three along its 35.27 miles (56.76 km) path that reached a peak width of 600 yards (550 m). The substation in Madison supplied 161,000 volts to a DuPont Plant in Old Hickory, while the one in Hendersonville served power to customers, though it was in need of repairs.
A winter storm in relation to the system closed I-29 from Fargo, North Dakota to the Canadian border.
Strong storms affected the Northeastern United States on December 10-11. The heaviest rain in the New York metropolitan area was on Long Island, where over 4 in (100 mm) of rain fell in certain spots. High winds were also reported, with gusts reaching 48 mph (77 km/h) in Kew Gardens and 46 mph (74 km/h) at Orient. Light backend snow also was observed in Sullivan County. The storm resulted in ground delay programs at LaGuardia Airport and John F. Kennedy International Airport. Parts of Connecticut saw rainfall exceed 5 in (130 mm). On December 10, daily rainfall records were set at Philadelphia, Atlantic City and Wilmington. The storm resulted in a brief stretch of I-76 shutting down in Montgomery County following a downed tree and 3 car crash. Further south, light snow at Dulles International Airport accumulated to 0.4 in (1.0 cm), but that was more snow then fell for the entirety of the previous winter. 0.1 in (0.25 cm) of snow was recorded at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. The highest snowfall of 13.7 in (35 cm) was in Roxbury, New York.

Originally, the school was set to have a Christmas play on December 9 at 1 p.m. However, to accommodate a student leaving the country, the play was moved up to December 2, which had 300 in attendance. The director of the school later stated, “If we would have had 300 people in the building on the ninth instead of the second, we would be talking about the destruction of possibly hundreds of lives because there’s nothing left of the theater.”",

"text": "This strong tornado was first observed by numerous storm spotters and residents at 4:39 p.m. CST (21:39 UTC) before tracking through areas of the Nashville metropolitan area. The tornado initially touched down near Trail Hollow Lane just to the east of I-24 and began tracking east-northeast, causing minor EF0 damage to trees and residences. The tornado then quickly intensified, reaching high-end EF1 intensity as it approached and crossed US 31W/US 41. Multiple outbuildings and warehouses were heavily damaged or destroyed, a motel suffered severe damage, and multiple trees were snapped. Further to the northeast, additional damage occurred to the residences, trees, power lines as the tornado crossed Old Hickory Boulevard (SR 45) and I-65. Significant intensification occurred as the tornado entered the north side of Madison, where dozens of trees and power poles were snapped or uprooted and numerous buildings, including businesses, warehouses, churches, and residences were significantly damaged or destroyed at EF2 intensity. All three fatalities occurred in this area along Nesbitt Lane, where multiple mobile homes were destroyed. Right before crossing US 31E, the tornado impacted an electrical substation, triggering multiple large power-flashes before causing a large explosion when it impacted an oil reservoir. The explosion, as well as direct heat from substation, caused a drop in relative humidity inside the tornado's condensation funnel, which in turn significantly reduced the tornado's visibility. The explosion was seen and captured by numerous residents inside the Nashville metro; it was also streamed live by a public live camera in Hendersonville. This was the first time a tornado had directly struck a Nashville Electric Service power substation since the 1974 Super Outbreak.",

The tornado continued northeastward and reached its peak intensity of high-end EF2 as it moved along and over the Cumberland River and Old Hickory Lake into the western part of Hendersonville in Sumner County. Hundreds of trees were blown down at the Old Hickory Dam, multiple buildings and warehouses at the dam site and a nearby marina were heavily damaged or destroyed, and a 75 ft (23 m) microwave tower was crumpled to the ground. The tornado then weakened to high-end EF1 intensity as it approached and moved through the center of Hendersonville along US 31E. Heavy damage occurred throughout the area with multiple businesses at a strip mall having heavy roof damage with some exterior wall collapses, several warehouses, other businesses, and outbuildings being heavily damaged or collapsed, homes suffering severe roof, siding, and exterior wall damage, and dozens of trees and power poles being snapped or uprooted. One two-story home in the area also had its entire roof removed with severe damage to the second floor's exterior walls. Past Hendersonville, the tornado caused more sporadic damage, mainly in the form of downed trees and snapped power poles. Some homes and businesses suffered roof and siding damage and a barn was heavily damage with debris from the structure damaging a home. Two homes near the SR 386/US 31E interchange suffered heavy roof damage with one of them also having its garage cave in. As the tornado approached Station Camp Creek, more homes, apartments, and condos were damaged, including another two-story home that had second floor roof removed, a gas station canopy was blown over, and more trees were snapped.",

Damage in this area was rated high-end EF1 to EF2. The tornado weakened to EF1 intensity again, but continued to cause heavy damage to homes as it moved through the southern part of Gallatin and crossed SR 109. Several homes had their roofs partially or totally removed and many trees and power poles were knocked down. Warehouses at the nearby Music City Executive Airport were also heavily damaged and more homes northeast of there had varying degrees of roof damage, with another home having its roof removed, along with more down trees. The tornado then passed just south of Cairo, heavily damaging an old barn country store along SR 25, knocking down trees, and inflicting minor damage to outbuildings at it passed north of Castalian Springs.

] | A significant, late-season severe weather and tornado outbreak affected portions of the Southern United States, primarily across the states of Tennessee, Kentucky, and Mississippi. Tennessee took the brunt of the outbreak with multiple damaging tornadoes touching down including a high-end EF1 tornado that damaged a National Guard Armory site near Dresden, a long-tracked, intense EF3 tornado that caused heavy damage in northwestern portion of Clarksville, and another strong, long-tracked high-end EF2 tornado that prompted a tornado emergency for the city of Hendersonville. The tornadoes killed seven people and injured 71 others, including 61 from the Clarksville tornado. The tornado outbreak scored 15 points on the Outbreak Intensity Score, ranking it as a significant tornado outbreak. This system also caused significant winter storm impacts to the Northeastern United States. | 2023-12-09T20:31:54Z | 2023-12-30T02:53:37Z | [

75,525,406 | Maltodextrin phosphorylase | Maltodextrin phosphorylase is a phosphorylase enzyme (EC 2.4.1.1), more specifically one type of glycosyltransferase (EC 2.4). Maltodextrin phosphorylase plays a critical role in maltodextrin metabolism in E. Coli. This bacterial enzyme, often referred to as MalP, catalyzes the phosphorolysis of an α-1,4-glycosidic bond in maltodextrins, removing the non-reducing glucosyl residues of linear oligosaccharides as glucose-1-phosphate (Glc1P). Phosphorylases are well-regarded for their allosteric effects on metabolism, however MalP exhibits no allosteric properties, and in fact has a higher affinity for linear oligosaccharides than its well-studied ‘cousin,’ glycogen phosphorylase.:
Maltodextrin phosphorylase facilitates maltodextrin metabolism through phosphorolysis of nonreducing glucosyl residues in order to produce Glc1P. MalP has a higher affinity for short, linear α-1,4 linked oligoglucosides, and consequently appears to act on soluble maltooligosaccharides. Without MalP, larger maltodextrins (typically composed of four or more glucosyl residues) are not degraded as easily for subsequent dextrin conversion into simple sugars
[(1→4)-α-D-glucosyl](n) + Pi ⇌ [(1→4)-α-D-glucosyl](n-1) + α-D-glucose-1-phosphate.
Previous study of the catalytic activity and kinetic properties of the MalP enzyme has revealed that it has different binding sites for the terminal glucose residue of the oligoglucoside and glucose-1-phosphate depending on whether its involvement is in the forward (phosphorylase) or reverse (synthesis) reaction.
Though the maltodextrin phosphorylase enzyme is capable of in vitro catalysis in both directions, its physiologically favored direction is forward, as a phosphorylase.
The maltodextrin phosphorylase monomer is a large protein, composed of 796 amino acids with a mass of roughly 90 kDa in E. Coli. While the enzyme can exist as an inactive monomer or tetramer, it is biologically active as a dimer of two identical subunits. Each MalP protomer contains one active-site cofactor, pyridoxal 5’-phosphate (PLP), the binding of which is essential to catalytic activity.
No clinical significance of maltodextrin phosphorylase has been presently identified for use in humans, though one potential application lies in research. The MalP enzyme may have biotechnological significance as it relates to obtaining or producing cheaper substrates for clinical research. G1c1P, a critical element to MalP’s phosphorolytic bioconversion process and a rather expensive chemical, can be enzymatically derived from dextrins or other starchy materials.
Maltodextrin phosphorylase readily catalyzes the reverse reaction of Glc1P plus oligosaccharide to yield an oligosaccharide lengthened by one glucose residue and liberation of inorganic phosphate. The sequence of E. coli MalP is nearly 100% identical to the mammalian glycogen phosphorylase (GP) at the catalytic site. In comparison to the mammalian GP, MalP is a simpler enzyme. It is regulated neither by allosteric effectors nor phosphorylation and it is expressed in E. coli as a constitutively active enzyme.
Crystal structures of oligosaccharide bound across the catalytic site in both the binary and the ternary MalP enzyme/substrate complexes reveal the importance of the conformational change in the oligosaccharide substrate in the formation of ternary complexes and provides support for the role of the 50-phosphate group of pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) in catalysis. | [

75,525,451 | North Fork tributaries at Hazard, Kentucky | The North Fork Kentucky River has several tributary creeks at, or in the immediate vicinity of, the city of Hazard, Kentucky. They were surveyed by the Kentucky Geological Survey in 1918. Most still exist, although some have since been eliminated by mining and the subsequent expansion of the city, and the post-World War 2 construction of the Daniel Boone Parkway.
Many locations were separate places in the early 20th century, and were gradually annexed by Hazard as it grew.
The Typo railway station is at the mouth of First Creek and is 5.5 miles (8.9 km) by rail from Hazard railway station.
In 1918, four mining companies mined First Creek, the Harvey Coal Company mining First itself and Road Branch, the Kentucky Block Coal Company mining Wolf Pen Branch, the Blue Diamond Coal Company mining White Oak Branch, and the First Creek Coal Company mining Road Branch.
Ira Stacey had a mine on a minor (and †) branch 2 miles (3.2 km) upstream on Bee Branch, and E. C. Combs one 0.5 miles (0.80 km) upstream. Benjamin and James Stacey had mines on Upper Second Creek.
Also on Upper Second Creek, 1.5 miles (2.4 km) upstream from its mouth, was the Monos post office, established on 1922-01-13 by postmaster Marion C. Combs. It closed in May 1924.
The Leonard mining town, and Leonard railway station, were just downstream of the mouth of Lower Second Creek, 8 miles (13 km) from Hazard by rail. The Butterfly post office was established on 1920-05-04 by postmaster Ollie Clay Day, who was the mining company's bookkeeper. The railway later changed the name of the station to Sonia, both names apparently taken from persons associated with the railway company. The Butterfly post office was simply named for the numerous butterflies observed in the area.
The Raccoon Coal Company had a mine next to the mouth of Gregory Branch.
Lothair was a mining camp opposite the mouth of Davidson Branch. The land was owned by George, the brother of Elijah Combs, and the Ashless Coal Corporation who operated the camp was owned by brothers Hugh and L. N. Buford. A L&N railway station named Lothair was opened in 1914, and on 1915-01-27 the Lothair post office was established by postmaster Andrew J. Upton. Various hypotheses exist as to the origin of the name, including that it might have been an oblique reference to Lotharingia, but no origin has been determined for certain. The post office became a rural branch of Hazard post office in 1957 and closed in 1975.
Lothair was annexed by Hazard in the 1960s, in order that it could pay for a public sewer line.
Allais was a mining camp established in the early 1920s at the mouth of Walker Branch by the Columbus Mining Company, owned by the J. B. Hilton family. The name came from the mine superintendent, one Victor Allais Sr. The Allais post office was established on 1922-10-19 by postmaster James S. Trosper. By that point, the mining camp had approximately 1000 residents, an L&N railway station, and a commissary run by Allais's wife and son. The post office closed in 1955.
Walkertown, as it later came to be known, was also annexed into Hazard.
In 1918, the then town of Hazard was in between Walker Branch and Gregory Branch. Mines in the town included the Speak brothers's mine on a minor fork of North Fork itself, over the river bridge; a mine at the north of the town; and one at the U-shaped river bend between Hazard and Lothair.
The USGS gaging-station (number 3-2775) for the North Fork Kentucky River at Hazard is maintained at this bend, at 37°14′45″N 83°11′00″W / 37.24583°N 83.18333°W / 37.24583; -83.18333 (USGS gaging-station number 3-2775) on the right bank on the downstream side of Woodland Park Bridge, 150 feet (46 m) upstream from Hazard city waterworks and 4.0 miles (6.4 km) upstream from Lotts Creek.
Airport Gardens was a post office on land originally owned by "Danger Nick" Combs (see the Combs family below), just downstream of the mouth of Meadow Branch, and was named because it was across North Fork from what was Hazard Airport. The post office existed from 1953 to 1970, Hazard Airport itself having opened in 1945 and later replaced by the East Kentucky Regional Airport in 1983. Nearby was the Appalachian Regional Hospital, which was within the Hazard city limits whilst the neighbouring residential homes are not.
A long way by river along North Fork but a short distance by rail from Hazard is the Lennut railway station, which was opened to serve a mining camp operated by the North Fork Coal Company. The Lennut post office was established on 1914-07-10 by postmaster Kelley E. Watts. Its name is literally the reverse spelling of the word "tunnel", as Tunnel was the name that was originally wanted (but was already taken and rejected by the USPS), since it was 500 yards (460 m) from the end of the railway tunnel through which the line passed to Hazard.
The Domino post office was established two weeks after Lennut was, for a mining camp operated by the Himyar Coal Company and a railway station serving it on the same line, by postmaster John B. Allen.
Both Lennut and Domino post offices closed in 1933.
Emmanuel M. Combs and Abijah Benjamin Combs operated the Dolen mining camp, midway between Lennut and Domino. The L&N built a station there in 1916 for the camp that it named Combs, and the Combs post office was established on 1922-07-17 by postmaster Dewey Colwell. It remains there still.
Abijah subdivided his share of the land in 1923, and it was turned into lots for homes and businesses, which grew to almost 900 residents by 1932. The Dolen mining camp was renamed to Combs, by which it and the subdivisions are now known.
A local Combs family sprawls over North Fork and its tributaries. Various post offices and creeks are named after them, and often they are distinguished by nicknames. Historian Thomas D. Clark observed in 1942 that one could greet a stranger in many communities around North Fork with "Good morning, Mr. Combs!" and be almost certain to get the name right.
The Bearville postoffice on Troublesome Creek, where there are also several Combs family mines and a Combs Branch, was named after "Bear" Combs; the Fisty post office there was named after "Fisty Sam" Combs; and the Tunnel and later Dwarf post office was named twice after Combses, first after Sam and Felix Combs's mining tunnel, then after "Short Jerry" Combs. Other family members included "Tight Jerry", "Loose Jerry", "Free Jerry", "Slow Jerry", "Chunky Jerry", "Round Jerry", and "Beet Nose Jerry" Combs.
Nicholas "Danger Nick" Combs, erstwhile owner of the land where the aforementioned Airport Gardens later was, also gave his name to the (adjacent) Danger Fork of Trace Fork and to the "Lots" spelling of Lotts Creek and possibly also to Danfork coal town, railway station, and post office and Dark Fork, when it wasn't named after another Combs, Helen Combs. There was also a Nicholas "Birdseye" Combs.
"Danger Nick" was one of the early settlers of Perry County, who came with his brother John Combs and their families from Virginia in the 1790s. They later spread out to Carrs Fork, Lothair (the aforementioned George Combs), and Hazard (founded by the aforementioned Elijah Combs). | [

75,525,569 | Sleeping Female Figure (Chalepas) | The Sleeping Female Figure (Greek: Η Κοιμωμένη) is a statue by Greek sculptor Yannoulis Chalepas that depicts the young Sophia Afentaki. It was made in the 1880s and is now found at the First Cemetery of Athens in Greece. The statue depicts a young girl, Sophia Afentaki, sleeping on a couch with a cross in her hand. It is considered to be Chalepas's finest piece of art, and the most important artwork in the cemetery.
The girl depicted, Sophia Afentaki, was born in Athens in 1856, to a family with origins from the Aegean island of Cimolus. She contacted tuberculosis and succumbed to it on 17 December 1973, when she was only seventeen years of age. Her uncle, George Afentakis, commissiοned Chalepas to carve a funerary memorial for the unfortunate girl, and thus the Sleeping Female Figure of Chalepas came to be, perhaps the most famous modern Greek sculpture.
The statue of the sleeping girl depicts Sophia Afentaki in white marble lying on a couch, on crumpled sheets. Her head rests gently on the richly embroidered pillow as she holds a cross in one hand resting on her chest, while her other hand falls gently on the sheets with one leg slightly bent and raised, so that the sculpture gives the impression that the girl has merely fallen asleep.
The Sleeping Female Figure still adorns the First Cemetery of Athens to this day. | [

75,525,623 | Amazon Fund | The Amazon Fund (in Portuguese: Fundo Amazônia) is an initiative created by the Brazilian Government and managed by the National Bank for Economic and Social Development (BNDES). It was established on 1 August 2008, with the aim of attracting donations for non-reimbursable investments in actions for the prevention, monitoring, and combat of deforestation, and for the promotion of conservation and sustainable use of the Amazon rainforest. Additionally, the fund supports the development of monitoring and control systems for deforestation in the rest of Brazil and in other tropical countries.
The fund is used in various areas, including the management of public forests and protected areas, control, monitoring and environmental enforcement, sustainable forest management, economic activities developed from the sustainable use of the forest, ecological and economic zoning, land planning and regularization, conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity, and the recovery of deforested areas. The projects supported by the fund must be aligned with applicable public policies and the guidelines and criteria, in addition to demonstrating their direct or indirect contribution to the reduction of deforestation and forest degradation. The actions foreseen in the projects must be coherent with the proposed objective, with the budget and with the schedule of its implementation. Eligibility for accessing the Amazon Fund is determined based on compliance with several plans and criteria, including the PPCDAm, ENREDD+, state plans for preventing and combating deforestation, and BNDES Operational Policies. Projects eligible for funding should directly or indirectly contribute to reducing deforestation in the Amazon. Various types of entities can submit projects for funding, including public administration bodies, NGOs, private companies, cooperatives, and research institutions.
Until 2018, the fund received R$ 3.4 billion in donations, with the majority coming from Norway, followed by Germany and Petrobras. In 2023, several countries announced contributions to the fund or interest in contributing, including Germany, Norway, the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Denmark, France, Spain and others.
The Amazon Fund, established in 2008 and operational since 2009, was primarily created to incentivize Brazil and other developing countries with tropical rainforests to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and forest degradation. The initiative was proposed by Brazil during the 12th Conference of the Parties of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in Nairobi, Kenya, in 2008. The fund's establishment followed Brazil's commitment to significantly reduce deforestation in the Amazon biome over the next decade.
Since its creation, the Fund has supported more than 100 projects related to the management of public forests and protected areas, environmental control, monitoring and inspection, sustainable forest management, economic activities created with sustainable use of vegetation, ecological and economic zoning, arrangement territorial and agricultural regulation, preservation and sustainability, exploitation of biodiversity and recovery of deforested areas.
In 2019, during the Bolsonaro government, the then Environment Minister Ricardo Salles proposed alterations to the structure of the Amazon Fund, citing irregularities in its management. He suggested that the fund's resources should be utilised to compensate for land expropriations in conservation areas within the Amazon rainforest. Third sector institutions, along with Germany and Norway, opposed these changes. They argued that audits had not identified any irregularities in the fund's management or in the monitoring of deforestation impacts. They stated that 'enhancing the fund's efficiency, impact, and transparency' should be pursued 'within the existing governance framework'.
Also in 2019, German Environment Minister Svenja Schulze announced that, due to the increased deforestation in the Amazon region and concerns about the Jair Bolsonaro government, Germany would suspend investments of R$ 155 million in the Amazon Fund. On the 15th of August 2019, Norway decided to suspend disbursements of R$ million to the Amazon Fund.
In 2022, with the election of Lula, Norway and Germany announced that they were willing to resume financing of the Amazon Fund. In 2023, several countries announced contributions to the fund or interest in contributing, including Germany, Norway, the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Denmark, France, Spain and others. | [

75,525,673 | Eva Rittmeister | Eva Rittmeister (born 5 July 1913 in Zeitz, died 19 July 2004) was a German peadiatric nurse, later office worker who became a resistance fighter against the Nazis. During World War II, Rittmeister became involved a Berlin-based resistance group that later became known as the Red Orchestra ("Rote Kapelle").
Eve Rittmeister née Knieper was the daughter of a merchant. After school, Rittmeister initially trained as a pediatric nurse, then worked as an office worker. Several sources indicate, however, that she was an actress.
In 1939, Rittmeister married John Rittmeister who was a neurologist and psychoanalyst and fifteen years older than her, aged 40. John Rittmeister considered her "life-affirming", who often enriched his life by relieving his chronic depression.
To prepare for her Abitur in 1940, Rittmeister attended the Heil'schen Abendschule Abendgymnasium ("Berliner Städtische Abendgymnasium für Erwachsene") (BAG) at Berlin W 50, Augsburger Straße 60 in Schöneberg. While there she met a number of people that would eventually become close friends including Ursula Goetze, Liane Berkowitz, Fritz Thiel and Friedrich Rehmer. They gradually formed a group of young people that met to discuss ideological, humanist and political views that gradually led to their opposition to Nazis.
In December 1941, Eva and her husband met Harro Schulze-Boysen and his wife, the aristocrat Libertas Schulze-Boysen.
On 26 September 1942, Eva and her husband were arrested by the Gestapo while at home. Eva was temporarily released but re-arrested on 5 January 1943. Her husband was sentenced to the death penalty by the 2nd Senate of the Reichskriegsgericht "for preparation for high treason and enemy favouritism". During the same trial Eva was sentenced to three years in prison "for listening to enemy transmitters". On 13 May 1943, John Rittmeister was executed by the guillotine in Plötzensee Prison. Eva was released in April 1945 by the Red Army and survived the end of the war.
In 1979, Rittmeister received the John F. Rittmeister Medal from the Gesellschaft für Ärztliche Psychotherapie (GÄP) (East German Society for Medical Psychotherapy) of the GDR in recognition of her special services to psychotherapy and social psychiatry. The medal was awarded to 21 people, only three of whom were women. In addition to Eva Rittmeister, the medal was awarded to the German psychotherapists Irene Blumenthal [de] and Leipzig professor Christa Kohler [de] | [

75,525,674 | Corridor Identification and Development Program | The Corridor Identification and Development Program, abbreviated as the Corridor ID Program, is a comprehensive planning program for inter-city passenger rail projects in the United States administered by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) under the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). Each route accepted into the program is granted $500,000 toward planning activities and is prioritized for future federal funding.
As of December 2023, a total of 69 passenger rail corridors have been accepted into the Corridor ID Program. Of these, 7 are new high-speed rail routes, 34 are new conventional rail routes, 13 are existing routes with proposed extensions, and 15 are existing routes with proposed upgrades. For example, accepted projects include Brightline West high-speed rail, the Northern Lights Express from Minneapolis to Duluth, the Heartland Flyer extension from Oklahoma City to Newton, and frequency increases for the Cardinal and Sunset Limited.
The $1.8 billion Corridor ID Program was authorized by Congress with the passage of the IIJA in November 2021 and was formally established in May 2022. The FRA began soliciting its first round of applications in December 2022 and made its first selection of 69 corridors in December 2023.
The purpose of the Corridor ID Program is to identify potential passenger rail expansion projects and to provide seed funding for planning stages. Construction and operational funding are not included. Eligible entities are invited to submit projects for consideration. Such entities include Amtrak, regional rail authorities, states, groups of state, state subdivisions, regional planning organizations, and federally recognized tribes. Once selected, each corridor is initially granted $500,000 toward project planning activities. Projects proceed through three steps:
