beatmania IIDX 10th Style is the tenth game in the beatmania IIDX series of music video games. It was released in arcades by Konami in early 2004.

Gameplay

Beatmania IIDX tasks the player with performing songs through a controller consisting of seven key buttons and a scratchable turntable. Hitting the notes with strong timing increases the score and groove gauge bar, allowing the player to finish the stage. Failing to do so depletes the gauge until it is empty, abruptly ending the song.

The core gameplay remains the same in 10th Style. The previous flashing 7 difficulty level was replaced by a difficulty level of 8. In addition, an animated particle effect now occurs if a full combo is scored on a song. Also, now two players can set different modifiers.

e-Amusement

e-Amusement support was extended in 10th Style, now being able to sort songs in folders based on whether they have been cleared in various ways. These include Failed, Cleared, Easy Clear (for songs played with the Easy modifier), and Full Combo.

Songs

Home version
The home version was released in Japan on November 17, 2005 for the PlayStation 2. It contained previews from Happy Sky, along with several exclusive songs, including crossover tunes from other Bemani games like DDR Ultramix 3.

Beatmania IIDX 9th Style is the ninth game in the beatmania IIDX series of music video games. It was released in arcades by Konami in 2003. The game features over 50 new songs, some of which can be unlocked using Konami's e-Amusement platform – which made its official debut on 9th Style.

The interface used by 9th Style is more modern and crisper looking than previous styles, taking advantage of the better graphics capabilities of the new PC-based hardware which 9th Style now utilizes. The new hardware also eliminates the separate DVD player which was used on previous versions for background videos, as all the videos and data are now stored on the hard drive contained within the machine.

Gameplay

Beatmania IIDX tasks the player with performing songs through a controller consisting of seven key buttons and a scratchable turntable. Hitting the notes with strong timing increases the score and groove gauge bar, allowing the player to finish the stage. Failing to do so depletes the gauge until it is empty, abruptly ending the song.

The core gameplay remains the same in 9th Style. 5-key mode has been removed and replaced by a separate 5-key modifier, which can be used on any song on any difficulty.

Hardware upgrade
9th Style was the first version of Beatmania IIDX to use a new Windows XP PC-based platform nicknamed the Bemani PC instead of the PlayStation-based Bemani Twinkle hardware which had been used since the beginning of the series. The improved platform had its benefits, such as better graphics capabilities, network support through e-Amusement, larger storage, and background videos being stored on the hard drive along with the game data (dropping the need for a separate DVD player).

The new platform however, became blamed for a multitude of issues with 9th Style, such as longer load times and off-sync timing windows on some songs.

e-Amusement

9th Style was the first version of IIDX to have support for Konami's new e-Amusement system, which can be used for the saving of stats and records to "entry cards". The entry cards were magnetic cards usually containing game artwork, inserted into a card reader mounted on the sides of the cabinet, and protected by a 4-digit pin. The cards could save stats and scores in between games, allowing new features such as the ability to sort songs by a player's previous performance on it (by letter grades, clear status, or full combos). When connected to the internet, scores could also be uploaded to the internet, but unlike future implementations, this was entirely optional. 9th Style did not require a network connection for full e-Amusement compatibility, and thus could be used while offline too.

Extra Stage
An extra stage can be earned for meeting specific criteria on the final stage. If the last stage is played on Another with Hard Mode enabled on any song rated a Flashing 7, and the player gets a AAA, the player is able to play PARANOiA survivor MAX by 290, well known as the boss song of DDR Extreme. If the stage is played on Hard mode and a grade of AAA is obtained, the player is forced to play One More Extra Stage, this song being Quasar by Outphase. In the PS2 version, getting an A is sufficient.

Home version
A home version of 9th Style was released in Japan for the PlayStation 2 on March 24, 2005. As with other IIDX home releases, it contains all the new songs from the Arcade version, revivals from older styles, and new songs. The home version also features higher quality graphics than previous versions, and S/PDIF audio output for higher quality sound. Of note, the console version of 9th Style does not suffer from the same timing issues as the Arcade version.

The engine and UI of 9th Style (but recolored purple and orange) were also used for the US release of Beatmania.

Songs
This is the complete list of new songs from the arcade version of Beatmania IIDX 9th Style. Songs highlighted green need to be unlocked. The Extra Stage is "PARANOIA survivor MAX", while the One More Extra Stage is "quasar".

Notable songs from this version include:
 Rislim ~remix~ – a remix of Rislim from 5th Style. The song is a subject of an inside joke in the IIDX community, involving a player's fondness for the song, and specific times on when to actually play it.
 rottel-the-Mercury – a continuation of sampling masters MEGA's series of Rotterdam techno songs. The video contains many scenes of food preparation and fishing, creating a double meaning for the title (where Mercury can either be a planet in relation to their previous song rottel-the-sun, or a chemical sometimes found in fish).
 PARANOiA survivor MAX – well known as the most difficult song on the then-recently released DDR Extreme. The song is one of several crossovers from Extreme that are present in 9th Style. It is also the first Extra Stage song to be removed in later arcade releases, as it was removed from Beatmania IIDX 14: Gold.

A new spinoff of Expert Mode also debuted, Daninintei (Class) mode, a mode containing a series of courses ranked so that each course is more difficult than the last, the highest rank course a player can beat in Dan mode is often used to compare players. Dan mode would have significant integration in future styles implementing the e-Amusement system, which could save a player's rank, and may also restrict access to specific songs based on their current rank.

Extra Stage - To access the Extra Stage (or the One More Extra Stage from the Extra Stage), the player must AAA a flashing 7-ranked song with Hard mode on. The extra stage is MAX 300, a song well known as being the extra stage from DDRMAX: Dance Dance Revolution 6thMix (which had been released a few months before). The OMES is Kakumei, a remix of Chopin's Revolutionary Étude by dj TAKA with NAOKI (which is also the OMES of DDRMAX2).

Home version

Konami decided to link Beatmania IIDX Club Version (later Substream) cabinets with Dance Dance Revolution 2ndMix machines for simultaneous play, leading to increased success. In late 1999, the publisher hired artist Goli to design graphics and characters for Beatmania IIDX 2nd Style. Featuring a new visual theme and song selection influenced by electronic music and rave music, 3rd Style was released as an arcade title on February 25, 2000.

Home version

Development and release

According to Foster, many players were initially not impressed with performing old songs on upgraded hardware, so they switched to Beatmania 4th Mix. Bemani developed several updates to the game after its release, including Beatmania IIDX Club Version. Konami decided to link Club Version (later Substream) cabinets with Dance Dance Revolution 2ndMix machines for simultaneous play, leading to increased success.

Then he goes to swami Trilokand who tells that soon he will marry two women. Sher Singh panics. However, Nisha's wealthy father arranges her marriage to his friend's son Vicky (Rajendranath Zutshi) who loves Nisha since a very long time. Sher Singh rushes home in response to a telegram to find that his marriage has been arranged with a local Village Punjabi girl, Sweety (Mahima Chaudhry) who loves him since childhood, in return for his sister's marriage to Sweety's brother. Since Sher's sister has physical disability in leg, this may be her only chance of finding a good husband. For his sister's sake, therefore, Sher marries Sweety and returns to Mumbai.

Meanwhile, Nisha refuses to marry Vicky and is ready to kill herself. To pacify Nisha, her father forces Sher to marry her. Sher doesn't get a chance to explain about his first marriage.

Since Sher Singh goes by the name of Shekhar while in Mumbai, he manages to convince his wives that there are two people—Sher Singh and Shekhar, the day Time he Spends with Sweetie and Night with Nisha, bearing a remarkable resemblance. His sons, meanwhile, suspect that something is wrong because of their similarities and keep investigating. When it almost seems like the truth will be out, there is a surprise element in the entry of a second Shekhar with exactly the same face, who claims to be Nisha's husband.

Now, Sher Singh can neither confess to being a bigamist nor sit silently, as a stranger stays with his wife Nisha. Meanwhile, he is implicated in a murder as well.

Harold Chapin (15 February 1886 – 26 September 1915) was an American-born English actor and playwright. He served in the British Army during World War I.

Life
Chapin was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1886. His mother was Alice Chapin an actress and suffragette and his father was Harvey Merrill Ferris. His parents divorced and his mother took the three-year-old Harold to live in England where he was educated and she continued her career. In 1910 he married the actress Calypso Valetta (1884–1978); their son Harold Valetta Chapin (1911–1950) was also an actor.

Enlisting as a private in the 6th London Field Ambulance Royal Army Medical Corps of the British Army in September 1914, Chapin served as a lance corporal in France. He was killed in action at the age of 29 at the Battle of Loos in 1915.

Chapin's letters, written while he was training in the army and on service, were collected and published after his death.

Career
Chapin's acting career began at age seven when he first appeared publicly in a Frank Benson production. He studied singing and appeared in touring and London productions and as well as working as an assistant stage manager and stage director. Between 1908 and 1914 he worked for the impresario Charles Frohman and for the director and manager Harley Granville Barker. In January 1914 he appeared in Israel Zangwill's play The Melting Pot.

In December 1915 Alice Chapin, Calypso Valetta, Gerald du Maurier and Sydney Fairbrother appeared in a London memorial performance of four of his plays: The Philosopher of Butterbiggins, Innocent and Annabel, The Dumb and the Blind and It's the Poor that 'Elps the Poor. The performance raised funds for a YMCA hut to accommodate soldiers at the front in France.

The novelist and playwright J.M. Barrie wrote the introduction to a collection of Chapin's plays: The New Morality, Elaine, Art and Opportunity, and The Marriage of Columbine. Barrie acknowledged Chapin's talent as a playwright.

His plays were produced throughout the UK and in New York City from the 1920s to the 1950s. The New Morality and The Threshold were broadcast on the radio in 1927 and Art and Opportunity was televised in 1953. The New Morality was performed at the Finborough Theatre, London, in 2005 and in New York City in 2015.

Chapin's plays were often social dramas (The Dumb and the Blind and It's the Poor that 'Elps the Poor) but he was also an established writer of comedy (The Marriage of Columbine and The Philosopher of Butterbiggins).

Scott Shafer (born January 6, 1967) is an American football coach and former player. He has served as the defensive coordinator for the Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders. Previously, he served as the head coach at Syracuse University until November 2015.

He was a high school and college quarterback in Ohio at Riverside High School, Ohio University, and Baldwin-Wallace College. He has held various positions including defensive coordinator, assistant head coach, and secondary coach at major universities such as the University of Rhode Island, Northern Illinois University, the University of Illinois, Western Michigan University, Stanford University, University of Michigan, and Syracuse University. He was officially named the head coach of Syracuse on January 9, 2013.

Early life and education
Shafer's father, Ron, was a high school football and track coach at Riverside High School in Painesville, Ohio. His father died at age 53 after coaching 28 years at Riverside High. As an Ohio native, Shafer attended school in Painesville, Ohio where he received his high school diploma in 1985. He attended Baldwin-Wallace College in Berea, Ohio, where he received his bachelor's degree in education in 1990. He went on to study at Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana, where he was awarded a master's degree in education in 1993.

Playing career
Shafer played football for Riverside High School, Ohio University, and Baldwin–Wallace College. While at Riverside, he played quarterback and was the 1984 Northeastern Conference Most Valuable Player. He went on to play quarterback at Ohio University in the Mid-American Conference. During the 1985 season, he suffered a knee injury that required him to have surgery and miss the remainder of the season.

After the 1985 season, Shafer transferred to Baldwin–Wallace College, where he played quarterback for the Baldwin Wallace Yellow Jackets from 1987 to 1989.  Playing in the Yellow Jackets' run and shoot offense, Shafer was ranked 17th in the nation in passing efficiency and earned team MVP honors.  In 1989, he led the Yellow Jackets to a 5–2–1 record.  In the final game of the 1989 season, Shafer was 16-for-31 passing for 237 yards and three touchdowns, throwing a 55-yard touchdown pass to Jerry Wrobel with 2:52 left to play for a 25–19 win over previously unbeaten John Carroll.  He finished the 1989 season with a 139.39 passing efficiency rating, best in the Ohio Athletic Conference.

Coaching career
Shafer has held numerous positions within Division I colleges, including the University of Rhode Island, Northern Illinois University, the University of Illinois, Western Michigan University, Stanford University, the University of Michigan, and Syracuse University.

Early career
Shafer began his coaching career as a graduate assistant to Bill Mallory at Indiana University from 1991 to 1992. For the 1991 season, the team finished with a 7 and 4 record with 1 tie. The team also graduated a first round pick in Vaughn Dunbar who was taken 21st overall by the New Orleans Saints in the 1992 NFL Draft. Shafer also earned his master's degree from in Education from the university while coaching football. He next coached the secondary at the University of Rhode Island from 1993-1995.

Northern Illinois
Shafer spent eight years as an assistant coach at Northern Illinois University, the first four as secondary coach, before adding defensive coordinator duties to his resume in 2000. Throughout his career at Northern Illinois, Shafer's players earned 13 All-MAC selections. and the team was ranked among the top three teams in MAC scoring defense in 2002 and 2003. His 2002 unit led the MAC in interceptions, takeaways, scoring defense, run defense and pass sacks. During the 2003 season, Northern Illinois was ranked as high as No. 12 in the AP poll, recorded its first 10-win season in 20 years, and had three victories over BCS teams while holding them to an average of 15 points per game. The team started 7-0 with victories over Maryland, Alabama, and Iowa State. During his time with the Huskie Football Program, Shafer also spent time with the local community including speaking at numerous coaching clinics.

Illinois
Shafer was hired as the secondary coach at the University of Illinois in 2004, after four straight winning seasons with Northern Illinois.  Working with Illinois head coach Ron Turner, Shafer coached cornerback Kelvin Hayden, who led the Big Ten Conference in interceptions and was selected by the Indianapolis Colts in the second round of the NFL Draft.  While Shafer was coaching at Illinois, the team's defensive coordinator was former Michigan linebacker, Mike Mallory who also worked with Shafer at Northern Illinois.  Mallory noted that Shafer's experience as a quarterback helped him as a defensive coach: "He knows how to get into quarterbacks' heads and what to do to throw them off their game."

Western Michigan
In December 2004, he was hired by Bill Cubit at Western Michigan University, where he was the defensive coordinator from 2005-2006.  Western Michigan was 1-10 the year before Shafer arrived, then went 7-4 in 2005 and 8-5 in 2006.  In 2006, the Broncos ranked first in the nation in interceptions (24) and sacks (46), sixth in run defense, seventh in turnover margin and 11th in total defense. The Broncos' rush defense (76.1 yards per game) in 2006 set a MAC record for fewest rushing yards allowed per game. Shafer was a nominee for the Broyles Award as the top assistant coach in the nation. He also coached two players who won the MAC West Division Player of the Week. Ammer Ismail and Dustin Duclo won the award twice in 2005 and Ismail was named to the First-Team All-MAC Defense. In 2005, his defense forced 13 fumbles and intercepted 15 passes.

Stanford
Jim Harbaugh was hired as the head coach of the Stanford Cardinal in December 2006. As part of his coaching staff, he hired Shafer as the defensive coordinator and assistant head coach. Harbaugh was quoted as saying Shafer being "one of the most creative and innovative defensive minds in college football." While at Stanford, he was part of the Cardinal's October 6, 2007, upset of USC. The Trojans were favored in the game by 41 points but the Cardinal scored a touchdown in the final minute to win the game 24-23. The upset was considered by some to be the greatest upset in the history of college football. Shafer's defense at Stanford ranked fifth in the nation with 37 sacks and posted 101 tackles for loss, which was good for 11th in the country. The numbers were the Cardinal's best since their Rose Bowl season of 1999.

Michigan
Shafer was hired as the defensive coordinator for the University of Michigan by new head coach Rich Rodriguez in 2008. In Shafer's only season as Michigan's defensive coordinator, the team was ranked 68th in total defense, 87th in pass defense and 80th in scoring defense among all Division I teams, allowing 28.9 points per game.  Coach Rich Rodriguez announced on December 16, 2008, that Shafer had resigned after one season as defensive coordinator.

Syracuse
Shafer was hired by Syracuse University head football coach Doug Marrone in 2009. He was hired as the defensive coordinator for a team that allowed 32.7 points per game in the 2008 season. The defense went from being 101st in the country to the top 20 under Shafer. Under Shafer, Syracuse's defense ranked 7th in the nation in 2010 in total defense (from 37th), 12th in the nation in first downs allowed (from 27th), 10th in pass defense (from 85th), 14th in pass efficiency defense (from (113th), and 13th in scoring defense (from 81st). While at Syracuse, he coached 2012 1st round draft pick Chandler Jones, who was the highest draft pick from Syracuse since Dwight Freeney in 2002. Shafer was officially named the head coach of the Orange on January 9, 2013, after Doug Marrone left to become the head coach of the Buffalo Bills.

Middle Tennessee State
On January 20, 2017, Shafer was hired by Middle Tennessee State to serve as defensive coordinator under head coach Rick Stockstill.

Coaching and defensive philosophy
Shafer said his father was his greatest coaching role model. He noted: "My dad always said a good coach can coach any position, and a good coach can coach any scheme.  We'll come up with an excellent scheme that is simple enough to let the kids attack and play with great aggression." Shafer explained his defensive philosophy this way:

"Scheme is overrated, I've always believed that. What's not overrated is getting your kids to play with great effort, great attitude and great enthusiasm. Those are things we can control on a daily basis, and that will be my primary goal. . . . The philosophy of our defense is attack-oriented, attack and react. We want to be a defense that is multiple, that is always putting pressure and forcing the hand of the offense. We want to be a penetrating defense. If you're going to (ask) what our objectives are? The one thing we want to do is stop the run, force them to throw the ball on first down, create negative plays on first down . . . and get ourselves in position to force them to throw the ball. Get them one-dimensional. We don't want to be a defense that sits back. We want to be a defense that creates turnovers and scores touchdowns."

Similarly, he told the Detroit Free Press:

"We're an attack defense; scheme is overrated. All schemes can work if you tackle and keep the ball in front. We're an aggressive defense, force the offense's hand. We're going to stop the run on early downs and force the pass. We'll get situations where when we are forcing the pass, we hit the quarterback, forcing him to throw the ball into coverage."

Shafer's defense philosophy has also been published to DVD. He is the author of eight instructional videos that are distributed by Coaches Choice and teach lessons such as tackling, press coverage, and different defense packages.

Family
Shafer and his wife Missy have a son, Wolfgang, and a daughter. Wolfgang was a quarterback for the Ithaca College Bombers, and has been a coach at Indiana State University. His brother John is an assistant football coach, and head track and field coach at Cuyahoga Heights High School.

Jean de Coras, also called Corasius (1515–1572) was a French jurist.

Life
Born in Réalmont as the son of a notary, he studied law in Toulouse, Cahors, Orléans and perhaps also in other cities, under teachers such as Franciscus Curtis junior and Marianus Socinus junior. After his 1535 promotion in Padua by Filippo Decio, he taught law at the University of Toulouse starting in 1536, in Valence (1545) and in Ferrara (1550), where he became one of the most popular professors of the time.

In 1552, Coras became a member of the Toulouse parlement and participated in the famous trial of Martin Guerre, of which he wrote the best-known record, Arrest Memorable du parlement de Tolose (1560). In 1562, having converted from the Roman Catholic Church to the Calvinist Reformed Church of France, he failed in an attempt to open Toulouse to the Huguenots, but was rehabilitated on account of his connections to the royal court. Even so, Coras later assisted in organising the Protestant unrests that culminated in the first French War of Religion. He was convicted and sentenced to death for having served the Prince of Condé in 1568, and was murdered in prison following the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre in 1572.

Legacy
Together with scholars such as Baron, Dumoulin, Connan and Douaren, De Coras was part of the generation of jurists that established humanist jurisprudence in France. His principal contributions to legal scholarship were his attempts to uncover dogmatic contexts beyond the mere exegesis of Roman law, and his contributions to constitutional law that influenced Jean Bodin.

His works include various commentaries on the Pandects, a number of dogmatic papers on various topics, the discourse De iuris arte libellus (1560) and a compilation of legal cases, Centuria memorabilium Curiae Tholosane (1599).

The poet and Roman Catholic convert Jacques de Coras was his grandson.

WJUS (1310 AM) is a radio station licensed to serve Marion, Alabama, United States.  The station is owned by Grace Baptist Temple Church of Selma, Alabama.

Programming
As WAJO, the station aired an urban contemporary music format until the late-2000 ownership and callsign change. As WJUS, this station aired a community-oriented Gospel music format from 2001 until Summer 2008. In Summer 2008, the station adopted a syndicated "Party Blues and Oldies" format featuring a mix of urban oldies and blues music.

In addition to its usual music programming, each Wednesday morning WJUS airs the "BodyLove" radio soap opera in which the characters deal with health problems with practical solutions and healthier eating. The program is hosted locally by registered nurse Frances Ford who brackets the show with a listener call-in show offering advice, support, and "practical steps to better health".

History
New station WJAM signed on the air on December 5, 1950, with 1,000 watts of power at 1310 kHz, licensed to operate only from sunrise to sunset. On July 7, 1955, the FCC granted a request by the station to increase their broadcast power from 1,000 watts to 5,000 watts for daytime-only operation. Radio Marion, Inc., acquired the license for WJAM on July 8, 1964.

In 1973, as the station was broadcasting a full-service mix of news and country music programming, a series of complaints, both formal and informal, were filed with the FCC that WJAM was not properly serving the public interest. Citing "a lack of public affairs programming" by the station, its routine license renewal was challenged. The license held by Radio Marion, Inc., was eventually renewed for a full three-year term after a hearing in March 1976. The FCC released its initial decision on this matter on July 13, 1976.

In October 1981, Radio Marion, Inc., reached an agreement to sell WJAM to Marion Communications, Inc.  The deal was approved by the FCC on May 19, 1982, and the transaction was consummated on January 19, 1983. The new owners applied to the FCC for new call letters and were assigned WAJO on June 1, 1983.

In March 1985, after the station suffered a significant financial setback the license for WAJO was involuntarily transferred from Marion Communications, Inc., to receiver William H. Dilday Jr.  The transfer was approved by the FCC on March 26, 1985.

In June 1986, William H. Dilday Jr. reached an agreement to sell this station to Marion Radio, Inc. The deal was approved by the FCC on September 30, 1986, and the transaction was consummated on July 20, 1987.

On May 27, 1997, WAJO filed for renewal of its broadcast license, normally a routine paperwork matter, but after nearly a year of consideration the FCC dismissed the renewal application and terminated the station's authority to broadcast. On June 11, 1998, the station owners petitioned the FCC for reconsideration and on June 30, 1998, the Commission granted the petition, reinstated the application, and renewed that station's license. Control of the license was transferred to Rollins Broadcasting Company and the new owners applied for a new callsign. The station was assigned the current WJUS call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on October 5, 1998.

In October 2000, Rollins Broadcasting Company (Elijah Rollins III, owner) reached an agreement to sell this station to current owner Grace Baptist Temple Church (Glenn King Sr., pastor) for a reported sale price of $60,000.  The deal was approved by the FCC on November 28, 2000, and the transaction was consummated on December 15, 2000. At the time of the sale, the station aired an urban contemporary music format.

Construction permit
On August 9, 2006, the FCC issued WJUS a construction permit to allow this station to change its community of license to nearby Selma, Alabama. The new broadcast tower location at 32°27'16"N, 87°06'36"W would also require a reduction in daytime signal power to 1,100 watts and nighttime power to 16 watts.  As of late December 2008, the station is still located in Marion, Alabama. This construction permit is scheduled to expire on August 9, 2009.

Viennese cuisine is the cuisine that is characteristic of Vienna, Austria, and a majority of its residents.  Viennese cuisine is often treated as equivalent to Austrian cuisine, but while elements of Viennese cuisine have spread throughout Austria, other Austrian regions have their own unique variations.

Viennese cuisine is best known for its Wiener schnitzel and pastries, but it includes a wide range of other unique dishes.

Vienna has been the capital of Austria for more than a thousand years. It became the cultural centre of the nation and developed its own regional cuisine; as such, Viennese cuisine has distinct cooking.

The variety of ingredients sold on the Naschmarkt might lead to the thought of a broadly varied cooking culture. In fact, dishes heavily depending on meat make up typical Viennese cuisine: Wiener schnitzel (veal coated in breadcrumbs and fried), Tafelspitz (boiled beef), Beuschel (a ragout containing veal lungs and heart), and Selchfleisch (smoked meat) with sauerkraut and dumplings are typical of its cooking. Some sweet Viennese dishes include Apfelstrudel (strudel pastry filled with apples), Millirahmstrudel (milk-cream strudel), Kaiserschmarrn (shredded pancakes served with fruit compotes), and Sachertorte (cake of two layers of chocolate cake with apricot jam in the middle). These and many other desserts will be on offer at one of the many Konditorei of Vienna, where they are generally eaten with coffee in the afternoon. Liptauer as a spread, or Powidl also as spread or base for dumplings are also quite popular.

History
The Viennese cooking tradition developed from many different sources: "Viennese cuisine is all about—an eclectic mix of cuisines from Europe and beyond, of all regions and lands that were once part of the monarchy."

Italian influence has been strong since roughly the early 17th Century. In the 18th Century, French cuisine became influential in Vienna, along with French etiquette and diplomatic language. The term "Wiener Küche" (Viennese cuisine) first appeared in German language cookbooks around the end of the 18th century, and it was mistakenly treated as equivalent to Austrian cuisine.

The croissant is also thought to have originated in Vienna after the defeat of the Turks in the Siege of Vienna.

In the second half of the 19th century, cookbooks started to include Bohemian, Hungarian, Italian, Jewish, Polish, and Balkan features in Viennese cuisine. Viennese cooking reflected foods brought in from various parts of the Austro-Hungarian Empire: "Viennese menus usually comprise the same group of dishes, sometimes Austrian in origin but often inherited from the various nationalities of the empire: Hungarian goulash ... wiener schnitzel ... south Slav ćevapčići... crêpe-like Palatschinken (claimed by the Romanians), and Powidltascherl ... from the Czechs, to name but a few."

Modern Viennese cuisine
In modern Vienna, many chefs have begun to combine traditional Viennese dishes with the principles of nouvelle cuisine to create what is known as "Neue Wiener Küche" (New Viennese cuisine). This includes vegetarian food.

Also, Turkish, Jewish, Middle Eastern, and Indian cuisine have influence on the city because of growing immigrant communities.

Coffee houses

The Viennese coffee house is such an important part of the cuisine and culture of Vienna, that the concept is listed as "Intangible Cultural Heritage" in the Austrian inventory of the "National Agency for the Intangible Cultural Heritage", a part of UNESCO. The Viennese coffee house is described in this inventory as a place, "where time and space are consumed, but only the coffee is found on the bill."

Viennese dishes

Typical Viennese dishes include:

 Apfelstrudel (an apple-filled pastry)
 Topfenstrudel (a quark cheese-filled strudel)
 Palatschinken (Viennese crêpes)
 Kaiserschmarrn (caramelized and shredded pancake)
 Buchteln (from Czech buchty): sweet rolls made of yeast dough, filled, traditionally, with Powidl, (or, in some modern variants, with apricot jam) and butter-baked.
 Germknödel
 Marillenknödel
 Powidl (from Czech povidla)
 Sachertorte (a chocolate cake)
 Wiener schnitzel
 Tafelspitz (boiled beef, often served with apple and horseradish sauces)
 Gulasch (a hotpot similar to Hungarian pörkölt, gulyás is stew with more sauce or soup in Hungary)
 Selchfleisch (smoked meat) with Sauerkraut and dumplings.
 Rindsuppe (beef soup)
 Beuschel (a ragout containing veal lungs and heart)
 Liptauer cheese

The CIE 1960 color space ("CIE 1960 UCS", variously expanded Uniform Color Space, Uniform Color Scale, Uniform Chromaticity Scale, Uniform Chromaticity Space) is another name for the  chromaticity space devised by David MacAdam.

The CIE 1960 UCS does not define a luminance or lightness component, but the Y tristimulus value of the XYZ color space or a lightness index similar to W* of the CIE 1964 color space are sometimes used.

Today, the CIE 1960 UCS is mostly used to calculate correlated color temperature, where the isothermal lines are perpendicular to the Planckian locus. As a uniform chromaticity space, it has been superseded by the CIE 1976 UCS.

Background

Judd determined that a more uniform color space could be found by a simple projective transformation of the CIEXYZ tristimulus values:

(Note: What we have called "G" and "B" here are not the G and B of the CIE 1931 color space and in fact are "colors" that do not exist at all.)

Judd was the first to employ this type of transformation, and many others were to follow. Converting this RGB space to chromaticities one finds

MacAdam simplified Judd's UCS for computational purposes:

The Colorimetry committee of the CIE considered MacAdam's proposal at its 14th Session in Brussels for use in situations where more perceptual uniformity was desired than the (x,y) chromaticity space, and officially adopted it as the standard UCS the next year.

Relation to CIE XYZ

U, V, and W can be found from X, Y, and Z using:

Going the other way:

We then find the chromaticity variables as:

We can also convert from u and v to x and y:

Hubert Henry Davies (17 March 1869 – 17 August 1917) was a leading British playwright and dramatist of the early 20th century, following in the tradition of Arthur Wing Pinero and Henry Arthur Jones, but influenced profoundly by Thomas William Robertson. He was born in Woodley, Cheshire, and spent some time as a journalist in San Francisco.

Career
He began his career in New York with The Weldons (1899), and on his return to Britain, collaborated successfully with the actor-manager Charles Wyndham to produce four West End productions including Cousin Kate (Theatre Royal Haymarket, 1903) and Mrs. Gorringe's Necklace (Wyndham's Theatre, 1903).

His best known work was The Mollusc. Originally produced by and starring Charles Wyndham at the Criterion Theatre in 1907, it was revived in London at the Arts Theatre in 1949, at Liverpool Playhouse in 2006 (although the title was changed to The Lady of Leisure), and at the Finborough Theatre in 2007; the play also was made into a movie. His plays were successful in New York.
Other published plays were Cynthia (1903), Captain Drew on Leave, Lady Epping's Lawsuit, Bevis, A Single Man, Doormats, and Outcast (1914).

Later life and death
During the First World War, he worked in France as a hospital orderly, which led to a nervous breakdown, and he was found dead at Robin Hood's Bay, Yorkshire in 1917.

Productions
Davies' Mrs. Gorringe's Necklace was a staple of Australian theatre since 1906 when it was produced by the Flemming-Brough Company.

It was produced at the People's Theatre, Royal Archade, Newcastle upon Tyne, by the Clarion Theatre in October 1923.

() is often glossed in English as faith. The term figures importantly in the literature, teachings, and discourse of Hinduism, Jainism, and Buddhism. Sri Aurobindo describes  as "the soul's belief in the Divine's existence, wisdom, power, love, and grace" Without diacritical marks, it is usually written as .

Faith plays a crucial role within Hinduism, underpinning all assumptions, beliefs, and inferences. Within Hinduism, having faith means one maintains trust in god, scriptures, dharma, and the path of liberation (). The Brihadranyaka Upanishad (3.9.21) states that "the resting ground of faith is the heart", emphasising that to have faith is to follow ones heart and intuition.

Within Hinduism, a key understanding of faith is maintaining trust in the scriptures. Hindus believe that it is not possible to understand or experience god directly with human senses, and so god's presence is inferred through descriptions in the scriptures.

An example of this can be seen in Bruhadaranyak Upanishad 3.8.9:

It can be associated with faith, trust, confidence, and loyalty. The teacher Ammachi describes it as the "constant alertness arising from Love", and when choosing a single word to translate it into English, has used "awareness". Other writers have also described the concept with emphasis on the intersection of faith and mindfulness, and it has been translated in this vein with words such as "diligence".

Devaswom (;
) are socio-religious trusts in India, whose members are nominated by the government and community. They oversee Hindu temples and their assets to ensure their smooth operation in accordance with traditional rituals and customs. The devaswom system notably exists in the state of Kerala, where most temples are either managed by Government of Kerala-controlled devaswoms or private bodies or families. The properties of each temple are deemed to be the personal property of the presiding deity of the temple, and are managed through a body of trustees who bear allegiance to that deity.

The five Kerala devaswoms—Guruvayur, Travancore, Malabar, Cochin, and Koodalmanikyam—manage nearly 3,000 temples together.

Revenues
The five devaswoms earn about 1,000 crore rupees annually.

Travancore Devaswom Board
The Travancore Devaswom Board is an autonomous body formed by the Travancore Cochin Hindu Religious Institutions Act of 1950. Sabarimala is the main income source of the Board, with 255 crore rupees accruing to it from the temple during the previous pilgrimage season. The income from the rest of the temples in Kerala was 57 crore rupees.

Malabar Devaswom Board
The Malabar Devaswom Board was formed by the H.R & C.E (Amendment) Ordinance of 2008 of the Government of Kerala. The board has nine members. There are five divisions: Kasaragod Division, Thalassery Division, Kozhikode Division, Malappuram Division, and Palakkad Division. Temples are in Special Temple category and the others in A, B, C, D categories.

Guruvayur Devaswom Board
The Guruvayur Devaswom Board was formed to administer the activities of Guruvayur Temple.

Cochin Devaswom Board
The Cochin Devaswom Board was formed under the act of XV of Travancore–Cochin Hindu Religious institutions Act, 1950 to make provisions for the administration, supervision, and control of incorporated and unincorporated Devaswoms and of other Hindu Religious Endowments and funds under the Ruling area of the former Cochin State. Each temples on CDB has controlled by devaswoms.

Koodalmanikyam Devaswom Board
The Koodalmanikyam Devaswom Board is situated in Irinjalakuda, Thrissur district. It manages the Koodalmanikyam Temple.

Working
Prior to 2015, the appointments to the various posts in the devawoms were governed by the provisions in the Madras Hindu Religious Act and Charitable Endowment Act 1951, Koodalmanikyam Devaswom Act 2005, Travancore-Cochin Hindu Religious Institutions Act 1950, and Guruvayoor Devaswom Act 1978.

In 2015, based on the recommendations by the Justice Paripoornan Commission, the Congress-led UDF government set up an autonomous body for recruitment in the Dewaswom Boards.

Reservation
About half of the Devaswom board recruitments are based on reservation.
 Ezhava (17%)
 Hindu OBC excluding Ezhava (6%)
 SC/ST (12%)
 Economically backward High caste Hindus (10%)

Attempt to abolish Devaswom
In 2018, the Supreme Court of India agreed to examine the petition started by Subramanian Swamy and T. G. Mohandas to abolish devaswoms. U. U. Lalit and K. M. Joseph issued notice to the Government of Kerala and Devaswom Board of Travanacore and Cochin, and sought their response in six weeks. In 2019, the Government of Kerala opposed Swamy's plea.

Henrique de Carvalho Santos (5 May 1940 – 15 October 2023), also known as Henrique Onambwé, was an Angolan nationalist who served as the Minister of Industry of Angola. He created the flag of Angola after it was decolonized and gained independence.

Santos was born in Porto Amboim, in the province of Cuanza Sul on 5 May 1940. Santos studied at the University of Heidelberg in Germany. MPLA members elected him to the MPLA Central Committee during the Inter-Regional Conference of September 1974 and the political bureau in December 1977. He served in the Directorate of Information and Security of Angola (DISA) before becoming the Minister of Industry. Santos died on 15 October 2023, at the age of 83.

William Adlington () was one among the host of translators that made the Elizabethan era the "golden age of translations". His translation of Apuleius' 2nd century CE novel Metamorphoses, better known by its English title The Golden Ass (1566, reprinted 1571, 1582, 1596) was its first appearance in English and has been steadily reprinted into the 20th century. His prose is bold and delightful, though he does not stick as close to his source as a modern translator would be expected to do, in part because he had probably translated from a French edition of the text alongside the original Latin. The book was a favourite source of Shakespeare's. He addressed his dedication to Thomas, Earl of Sussex, from "University College in Oxenford", but so little is known of him that he did not rate a vita in the Dictionary of National Biography. A connection with the Adlington family of Cheshire is unproven, as is his authorship of the 1579 verse tract "A Speciall Remedie against the furious force of Lawlesse Love", which is more likely to have been written by the London schoolmaster William Averell.

Charles A. ("Chuck") Miller (October 27, 1937 – March 22, 2019) was an author and Professor of Politics and American Studies at Lake Forest College.

Biography
Miller received his Bachelor of Arts from Swarthmore College (1959) in political science with highest honors, studied public law at the University of Freiburg in Germany under a Fulbright grant (1959–60), and received Masters of Public Administration and Doctor of Philosophy degrees from Harvard University (1962, 1968).  Prior to his career at Lake Forest College (1974–98), he taught at Clark College in Georgia (now Clark Atlanta University; 1967–70) and Princeton University (1970–74).

Among the courses Miller taught or co-taught were constitutional law; civil liberties; the Politics of Aristotle; law and literature; U.S. foreign policy; the political economy of health care; the Jewish Experience in America; Nature in American Life; and courses comparing Justices Holmes and Brandeis; The Federalist and Democracy in America; and The Odyssey and Walden.  At Lake Forest College he was instrumental in establishing the Christopher C. Mojekwu Memorial Fund for Intercultural Understanding in honor of a late member of the faculty.

Miller's scholarly passions are reflected in books, essays, reviews and a vast correspondence. His contributions to American intellectual thought are The Supreme Court and the Uses of History (Harvard University Press, 1969), and Jefferson and Nature: An Interpretation (The Johns Hopkins University Press, 1988). He is the author of A Catawba Assembly (Trackaday, 1973) about Camp Catawba, a camp near Blowing Rock, NC, where he spent twelve summers, and the editor of Homer’s Sun Still Shines: Ancient Greek in Essays, Poems, and Translations by Vera Lachmann (Trackaday, 2004), a book about the camp's director.  A fascination with literary wordplay and metaphors led to Isn’t that Lewis Carroll? A Guide to the Mimsy Words and Frabjous Quotations of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Through the Looking-Glass, and The Hunting of the Snark (Trackaday, 1984) and Ship of State: The Nautical Metaphors of Thomas Jefferson, With Numerous Examples by other Writers from Classical Antiquity to the Present (University Press of America, 2003).

His essays include "Constitutional Law and the Rhetoric of Race " (1971) and "The Forest of Due Process of Law" (1977). He wrote or edited pamphlets:  "African-American Life at Monticello:  The Paintings of Nathaniel K. Gibbs" (2002), "The Shenandoah Valley in History and Literature" (2003) for children, a guide to Gilbert and Sullivan's Ruddigore (2007), and Brandeis: The Legacy of a Justice, Marquette University Law Review, vol. 100, iss. 2 (2016)

Personal life
Miller's father, Morris, was Chief Judge of the Juvenile Court in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia. His mother, Sara Levy Miller, was a child psychologist, and artist, whose paintings and drawings are reproduced in a book he co-edited, The Art of Sara Miller (Trackaday, 2006).  A brother, Tom Miller, is an author and free-lance journalist.  Charles Miller lived in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia with his wife Barbara Brennan, a nurse practitioner.  Among his avocations was piano improvisation, begun in his childhood when he took music lessons from Ruth Crawford Seeger.

Miller died of severe oropharyngeal and esophageal dysphagia at the age of 81 on March 22, 2019.

The Chemins de fer du Jura is a railway company in the canton of Jura in northwestern Switzerland. It was formed in 1944 from the merger of four independent companies connecting Porrentruy to Bonfol, Saignelégier to La Chaux-de-Fonds, Glovelier to Saignelégier and Tavannes to Tramelan and Le Noirmont. The lines extend for a total of  of which just over  is metre gauge. The  line from Porrentruy to Bonfol is standard gauge. The company also operates local bus services in the area.

History
The first company to open a line in the region was the Chemin de fer Tavannes-Tramelan, which opened the  gauge line linking the villages in its name in 1884. This line was extended by the Chemin de fer Tramelan-Les Breuleux-Le Noirmont to reach Le Noirmont and was electrified in 1913. In 1927 the two companies merged to form the .

On 7 December 1892 the longest of the region's lines, the Chemin de fer Saignelégier-La Chaux-de-Fonds (SC) was opened linking the places in its title. The  line ran from Saignelégier (Place d'Armes) to La Chaux-de-Fonds, the final kilometre being laid along the streets to the town centre.

The  gauge Porrentruy–Bonfol railway line and Saignelégier–Glovelier railway were opened in 1901 and 1904 respectively. Finally, Porrentruy–Bonfol was extended to Pfetterhouse in 1910. This extension was closed in 1970. The line between Saignelégier and Glovelier  relaid to metre gauge in 1953.

Following the amalgamation of the companies in 1943, the rail system was restructured between 1946 and 1953. The complete system was electrified, some 40 years after the first electric trains had run.

Martin Johann Schmidt, called Kremser Schmidt or Kremserschmidt, (25 September 1718 – 28 June 1801), was one of the outstanding Austrian painters of the late Baroque/Rococo along with Franz Anton Maulbertsch.

He was born at Grafenwörth, lower Austria, a son of the sculptor Johannes Schmidt.  A pupil of Gottlieb Starmayr, he spent most of his life at Stein, where he mostly worked in the numerous churches and monasteries of his Lower Austrian homeland. While the evolution of his style after 1750 shows that he had either spent a formative period in northern Italy or had at least had extensive contact with northern Italian works of art prior to that date, his works are also clearly influenced by Rembrandt (visible above all in his etchings) and the great fresco-painters of the Austrian Baroque, Paul Troger and Daniel Gran.

Despite not having received formal academic training, in 1768 he was made a member of the imperial academy at Vienna due to his artistic merits, which by that time had already been recognized by a wider public inside and outside of Austria.

Primarily he painted devotional images for private devotion and churches, including a considerable number of large altar paintings. His lively and colourful style made him extremely popular with people from all levels of society already during his lifetime. From 1780, mythological and low-life themes became increasingly frequent, only to be replaced by a renewed concentration on religious topics during the last years of Schmidt's life.  He died at Stein/Danube (now belonging to Krems an der Donau), aged 82.

He was an important draughtsman and has left numerous etchings which clearly show Rembrandt's influence.

While his earlier works typically show a warm chiaroscuro, from about 1770 he used increasingly stronger and more lively colours. Simultaneously, both his style and his brush technique became much more free, making him, like Franz Anton Maulbertsch, an important predecessor of impressionism. In this aspect, his mature style is completely contrary to neoclassicism, the style which increasingly dominated European art after about 1780.

The CIE 1964 (U*, V*, W*) color space, also known as CIEUVW, is based on the CIE 1960 UCS:

where  is the white point and Y is the luminous tristimulus value of the object. The asterisks in the exponent indicates that the variable represent a more perceptually uniform color space than its predecessor (compare with CIELAB).

Wyszecki invented the UVW color space in order to be able to calculate color differences without having to hold the luminance constant. He defined a lightness index W* by simplifying expressions suggested earlier by Ladd and Pinney, and Glasser et al.. The chromaticity components U* and V* are defined such that the white point maps to the origin, as in Adams chromatic valence color spaces. This arrangement has the benefit of being able to express the loci of chromaticities with constant saturation simply as  for a constant C. Furthermore, the chromaticity axes are scaled by the lightness "so as to account for the apparent increase or decrease in saturation when the lightness index is increased or decreased, respectively, and the chromaticity  is kept constant".

Chromaticity and color difference
The chromaticity coefficients were chosen "on the basis of the spacing of the Munsell system. A lightness difference  is assumed to correspond to a chromaticness difference  (approximately)."

With the coefficients thus selected, the color difference in CIEUVW is simply the Euclidean distance:
