Ronald Mark Benton (born 1937) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with West Adelaide in the South Australian National Football League (SANFL).

Benton made his debut for West Adelaide in 1955 shortly before his 17th birthday. His first kick in league football saw him score the first of 198 goals for the club. He played 184 games for West Adelaide and in 1957 he won the SANFL's highest individual honor, the Magarey Medal, as well as winning West Adelaide's Best & Fairest award.

Ron Benton was also a member of West's 1961 premiership team playing on the half-forward flank as West Adelaide defeated Norwood for their first premiership win since 1947. The Grand Final was played on September 30 and in what became known as the 'Turkish Bath Grand Final' due to it being played in 35°C heat, West prevailed over the Redlegs 16.13 (109) to 11.7 (73) in front of 40,909 at the Adelaide Oval with the oppressive heat blamed for the lowest Grand Final attendance since West defeated Norwood in 1947. Benton was one of West's best players on the day with 21 kicks, 2 handballs, 4 marks and he kicked 2 goals.

He was West Adelaide's leading goal kicker in 1963 with 29 goals.

Tonatico Municipality is one of the municipalities of the State of Mexico, in Mexico located 153 kilometers from Mexico City, 105 from Cuernavaca, 84 from Toluca, 68 from Taxco and 5 from Ixtapan de la Sal. Tonatico, of Náhuatl origin, is  from the Náhuatl word tonatihco, place of the sun.

History
Prehistoric animal remains and cave paintings have been found in the area around the modern town.

According to legend, the Aztec emperor Axayacatl conquered the area, then known as Tenati-Tlan, "behind the walls", which had by that time been populated for a few thousand years, and founded Tonatiuh-Co, which had the same borders as the current town. However, no records of this exist.

The region had been originally populated by the Matlatzincas, but at the time of the Spanish Conquest the area belonged to Tlatoani Axayacatzin of Cuahnahuac (present-day Cuernavaca). In 1521 Hernán Cortés sent Andrés de Castro to keep the local peoples from supporting Cuauhtémoc and to subdue the area. Don Gaspar Alonso, a conquistador, forsook his heritage and sided with the natives of Tonatico, taking on the name of Tlachcolcatcal or Tlacatecutli.  He most likely died in the town after the Spanish conquest.

In 1525, the Spanish founded the modern town, modifying the indigenous name to Tonaltinco or Tonaltiunco.  A few years later, Franciscan friars came to evangelize the area. At the same time, a statue of the Virgin Mary arrived, now called Our Lady of Tonatico. The miracles this statue was credited with led to conflicts with the nearby town of Ixtapan de la Sal. However, the town eventually came under the control of Ixtapan de la Sal in 1553.

During the Mexican War of Independence, both Hermenegildo Galeana and Pedro Ascencio de Alquisiras were active in this area. In 1863, Don Teodoro Estrada and Don Fructuoso Vázquez fought here against the French. In 1870, the town became the seat of the current municipality of Tonatico, though the territory it then governed was only about half the size of its historical extent. The Liberation Army of the South (Zapatistas) were active here, first burning the municipal library in 1912, attacking federal troops in the main church and ultimately expelling federal troops from the town in 1916. Tonatico's annual Passion Play was inaugurated during Holy Week 1940; in the same year, the Feria del Calvario (Calvary Festival) began to be held, recurring annually on the third Friday in Lent every year. The 1985 Mexico City earthquake also affected this area as well, damaging the Sanctuary of Our Lady, where the statue of Our Lady of Tonatico is housed.

Municipal seat

Tonatico has had a number of notable residents. Teodoro Estrada was born in the nearby town of Zumpahuacan in the State of Mexico. He fought against the French alongside Porfirio Diaz and his performance on the battlefield won him the rank of colonel. Porfirio Diaz had him murdered in Tenancingo. Brigadier General Domitilo Ayala Arenas was born on May 12, 1885, in La Audiencia, Tonatico. He fought with the Liberation Army of the South, next to Emiliano Zapata. He died February 12, 1932, in Mexico City. Don Sebastián Lealba was born in Tonatico on February 26, 1830, and died in Tetipac, Guerrero. He was the leader of the movement which gained municipal independence for Tonatico on April 26, 1908. There is a bust of Don Sebastián in the municipal hall.

Notable landmarks in Tonatico include:
 The house of Gaspar Alonso dating from the late 17th century.
 The remains of a mill for wheat, on the farm of San Miguel from the 17th century.
 The ruins of the first houses that were constructed, the majority of which are on Francisco Javier Mine Street, dating from the 17th century.
 The remains of old stone bridges on the  San Jerónimo River, probably from the 16th century.
 A stone bridge constructed on San Jerónimo, which is still in good condition.
 A sundial in pink stone, which today can be found on the arch of the north front door to the vestibule of the church.
 The Sanctuary of Our Lady of Tonatico, which began construction in 1650 and is still in use.
 A chapel dedicated to El Niño de la Azucena, built in 1948.
 A chapel to the El Señor de la Agonía (Our Lord of Agony), built in 1956.
 The Chapel of the Calvary, which has been expanded and remodelled in recent decades

The population of the town as of 2010 was 7,565 people.

The population of the municipality as of 2010 was 12,099.

The rate of population growth is very low, growing only 3.61% from 1970 to 1980 and even less (0.51%) from 1990 to 1995. The number of births in the municipality in 1996 was 280; in 1997, 290 and in 1998 only 84. The average family size is five.

Tonatico has several nearby mountains, including La Cruz and Tapachichi. The largest is La Puerta at 1,685 meters of elevation.  The Salto de Zumpantitlán waterfall is nearby, along with the Tenancingo, San Geronimo and Taplalla rivers.

A peduncle is an elongated stalk of tissue. Sessility is the state of not having a peduncle; a sessile mass or structure lacks a stalk.

In medicine, a mass such as a cyst or polyp is said to be pedunculated if it is supported by a peduncle.

There are in total three types of peduncles in the cerebellum of the human brain, known as superior cerebellar peduncle, middle cerebellar peduncle, and inferior cerebellar peduncle.

Pedunculated eyes are also the defining attribute of the Stylophthalmine trait found in certain fish larvae.  The caudal peduncle is a slightly narrowed part of a fish where the caudal fin meets the spine.

Giacomo Joyce is a posthumously-published work by Irish writer James Joyce. It was published by Faber and Faber from sixteen handwritten pages by Joyce. The text is a free-form love poem that tracks the waxing and waning of Joyce's infatuation with one of his students in Trieste.

Writing and publication

Giacomo Joyce was written in Trieste between 1911 and 1914 shortly before the publication of A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man. The original manuscript contains fifty fragments transcribed onto eight large sheets of sketching paper held within a blue school notebook. It was written in Joyce's "best calligraphic hand". The manuscript was left with his brother Stanislaus when Joyce moved to Zurich in 1915. The text of Giacomo Joyce is quoted at length in Richard Ellmann's 1959 biography, James Joyce, but it wasn't until 1968 that it was published in its entirety.

Giacomo Joyce contains several passages that appear in Joyce’s subsequent works including A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, Ulysses, and Exiles. Some passages were borrowed verbatim while others were reworked. According to Ellmann, this reflects a decision on Joyce’s part to "pillage rather than publish" Giacomo. Writer and critic, Michel Delville, asserts that the "explicitly autobiographical character of the poem and the scabrousness of the subject eventually prevented Joyce from publishing"; adding that Joyce may have found it "aesthetically embarrassing as well as biographically compromising".

Analysis and interpretation

The hero of Giacomo Joyce is undoubtedly Joyce himself, and within the text Giacomo is referred to as "Jamesy" and "Jim". There is also a reference to Joyce's wife Nora. Additionally, "Giacomo" is the Italian form of the author's forename, James. According to Helen Barolini, the use of the name is an ironic allusion to the "name of another (but more successful) lover, Giacomo Casanova." The "dark lady" at the center of Giacomo is identified by Ellmann as Amalia Popper. The daughter of Leopoldo Popper, a Jewish businessman who ran a shipping company in Trieste, Amalia was tutored by Joyce between 1908 and 1909. Citing various biographic discrepancies, other scholars dispute that the heroine of Giacomo is Amalia Popper, rather they say she is most likely an amalgam of several of Joyce's students in Trieste.

John McCourt describes Giacomo Joyce as "a mixture of several genres — part biography, part personal journal, part lyrical poetry... part prose narrative". It represents the liminal period when Joyce was transitioning from the poetry of Chamber Music to the prose of Ulysses. Several of the shorter fragments in the text closely resemble Ezra Pound's "In a Station of the Metro" which leads Delville to connect it to Imagist poetry, a movement which was well underway at the time of Joyce's writing.

Related works

In 1976, German artist Paul Wunderlich produced ten multicolored heliographs illustrating Giacomo Joyce. Wunderlich's illustrations are a post-war interpretation of a pre-war text "which he reads as deeply disturbing intimations of the Holocaust".

The Finster Finster Show!: Store Wars

The Finster Finster Show! was created by DeGrandis when he was a student at CalArts in 1982. He developed a short film based on the concept and even recorded the voices himself in 1983. While working as an executive producer to several Nickelodeon / Nick Jr. Channel productions, he pitched the idea to Nickelodeon and Frederator Studios for the "fourth season of Oh Yeah! Cartoons". They gave him the greenlight, he did the storyboards and scripts and the voice recording was done exactly 23 years after the 1983 voice recording of the short film. The short aired in Random! Cartoons in 2008.

The politics of Bavaria takes place within a framework of a federal parliamentary representative democratic republic, where the Federal Government of Germany exercises sovereign rights with certain powers reserved to the states of Germany including Bavaria.

The state has a multiparty system dominated by the Christian Social Union in Bavaria (CSU). Bavaria has long been a bastion of conservative politics in Germany, with the Christian Social Union has won every election of the state parliament since 1946 and having almost a monopoly on power. Every Minister-President since 1957 has been a member of this party. On the other hand the bigger and more liberal, or rather social democratic, cities, especially Munich, have been governed for decades by the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) until recently the second biggest party. In 2018 the Alliance 90/The Greens which have been represented in the state parliament since 1986, became the second biggest political party in the Landtag and in 2020 the biggest party in the Munich City Council. From the historical point of view, older Bavaria was one of the most liberal, predominantly Roman Catholic states until the rather rural areas of Swabia and Franconia were added in 1814/15 at the Congress of Vienna.

In 1995 the Bavarians decided to introduce direct democracy on the local level in a referendum. This was initiated bottom-up by an association called Mehr Demokratie (More Democracy). This is a grass-roots organization which campaigns for the right to citizen-initiated referendums. In 1997 the Bavarian Supreme Court aggravated the regulations considerably (e.g. by introducing a turn-out quorum). Nevertheless, Bavaria has the most advanced regulations on local direct democracy in Germany. This has led to a spirited citizens’ participation in communal and municipal affairs – 835 referendums took place from 1995 through 2005.

Constitution
The Constitution of Bavaria was enacted on 8 December 1946. It is the fourth constitutional document in Bavarian history after the Constitution of 1808, the Constitution of the Kingdom of Bavaria in 1818 and the Bamberg Constitution of 1919.

The Bavarian State Parliament

Bavaria has a unicameral Landtag, or state parliament. The 180 members of the Landtag (plus additional overhang and leveling seats) are elected for a period of five years by universal suffrage. The Landtag may dissolve itself with a majority vote of its legal number of members or be dissolved by means of a state-wide referendum.

Until December 1999, there was also a Senat, or Senate, whose members were chosen by social and economic groups in Bavaria, but following a referendum in 1998, this institution was abolished.

The Landtag resides in the Maximilianeum, a building rich in tradition built on the banks of River Isar by King Maximilian II in the 19th century.

The Bavarian State Government

Bavaria Cabinet since 12 November 2018

The Bavarian State Government is the supreme executive authority of the state. It consists of the Minister-President of Bavaria and up to 17 state ministers and state secretaries. The Minister-President as head of government is elected for a period of five years by the Landtag. With the approval of the Landtag he appoints and dismiss the members of the State Government.

The State Government is composed of the:
 State Chancellery ()
 Ministry of the Interior, for Sport and Integration ()
 Ministry for Housing, Construction and Transport ()
 Ministry of Justice ()
 Ministry for Education and Culture ()
 Ministry for Science and Art ()
 Ministry of Finance and for Home Affairs ()
 Ministry for Economic Affairs, Regional Development and Energy ()
 Ministry for Environment and Consumer Protection ()
 Ministry for Food, Agriculture and Forestry ()
 Ministry for Family, Labour and Social Affairs ()
 Ministry for Health and Care ()
 Ministry for Digital Affairs ()

Bavaria state elections

Electoral system

Bavaria uses mixed-member proportional representation to elect its members of the Landtag. Party representation is not apportioned statewide, the distribution of seats takes place separately within the seven administrative districts (), which are referred to in the constitution as constituencies (Wahlkreise). The constituencies are divided into electoral districts (Stimmkreise) in which one member is directly elected. The number of single member districts is about half the number of seats in the constituency.

Since the 2018 state election seats and single member districts are distributed as follows:

Since the 1950 state election every elector has two votes, one for a candidate in their electoral district and one for a candidate in their constituency. All district (local) candidates are also constituency (regional) candidates with their parties. The parties may also nominate constituency-only candidates. To prevent double voting, the constituency ballots in each district omit the candidates running in that district. Members in single-member districts are elected by first-past-the-post, based just on the first (district) votes. The distribution of seats in the constituencies are made by proportional representation which takes into account the parties' aggregate first (district) votes combined with their second (constituency) votes. Seats are allocated using the Hare-Niemeyer method, after in 1992 the Bavarian Constitutional Court ruled the use of the D'Hondt method in state elections unconstitutional. To compensate if a party wins more electoral district seats in a constituency than its votes would entitle it to (these extra seats are termed overhang seats), the other parties receive leveling seats in the constituency too, increasing the number of seats for the constituency. There is no statewide adjustment of the seats. Only Parties and groups of voters who obtain at least 5% of the total votes (sum of first and second votes) in Bavaria participate in the distribution of seats. This threshold also applies to winning single-member districts; a party will forfeit all its district seats that it won if the party did not meet the 5% statewide threshold, with the forfeited district seats going to the second-place candidate.

Bavaria uses an open-list system for the constituency seats. For the distribution of list seats, a candidate is ranked within the list by the number of first votes received within the district plus the number of second votes received from voters elsewhere in the constituency. In this manner, voters collectively produce a list that is different from what the party submitted, which can result in the defeat of candidates that would have been elected (and vice versa) had the election taken place under a closed-list system.

Next election

According to the Bavarian Constitution, the election must be held on a Sunday "at the earliest 59 months, at the latest 62 months" after the preceding state elections  unless the Landtag is dissolved, in this case the new election shall be held at the latest on the sixth Sunday after the dissolution. The elections since 1978 have always taken place between mid-September and mid-October. The next election is expected to take place 2023.

Past elections

The state election was held on 14 October 2018. The CSU lost its majority with a worse result than in 2008.

The state election was held on 15 September 2013. The CSU won an absolute majority of the seats in the Landtag, while the FDP, a coalition party in the outgoing Bavarian government, did not receive enough votes to enter the new parliament.

The state election was held on 28 September 2008. The CSU had its worst result since the Adenauer era, and lost its majority in the Landtag for the first time in 46 years.

The state election was held on 21 September 2003. The CSU won more than two-thirds of the seats in the Landtag. No party in post-war German history had achieved this before.

Kenosee Lake (2016 population: ) is a village in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan within the Rural Municipality of Wawken No. 93 and Census Division No. 1.

The village is situated on Moose Bay, which is on the north-east part of Kenosee Lake, just off Highway 9, on a forested plateau called Moose Mountain Upland. It is entirely surrounded by Moose Mountain Provincial Park, which was established in 1931. Kenosee Lake was incorporated as a village on 1 October 1987. The closest town is Carlyle, which is about 24 kilometres south along Highway 9.

History

Long before Kenosee Lake became an official village, the area around the lake, which had been called Fish Lake until 1932, was quite popular as a resort community. In the 1890s, Fred Christopher and sons, who were German immigrants and had a homestead seven miles east of Fish Lake, and the Fripp brothers, Harold and Percy who owned the land that the village of Kenosee Lake currently sits on, agreed to cut a trail through the bush from Fish Lake to Cannington Manor. That trail became known as Christopher Trail and is still used today as the main gravel road between Kenosee Lake and Cannington Manor. The first actual road to the lake, though, was built from a spot about 3 miles west of Carlyle past the lakes of McGurk, Stevenson, and Hewitt to the west side of Fish Lake in 1905. On that west side of the lake was another resort called Arcola Resort. For a variety of reasons, such as a lack of potable water and when the new Highway 9 was built in the early 1930s, it went to the east side of the lake, it wasn't as successful as the resorts on the north-east shore. By the 1940s, the last cottage was gone. That spot on the west side of the lake is now occupied by three Christian summer camps.

The Christopher family built the Saint Rest Resort in 1897 on Percy Fripp's land and then in 1899, bought the land. About that same time, several dance halls, stores, and cabins sprung up along the beaches. The oldest surviving dance hall is Tumble Inn, which was built in 1909 by the Christopher family. The Inn was part of the Pioneer Host hotel, also built and owned by the Christophers. The large bay on the north-west portion of the lake, Christopher Bay, is named after that early pioneering family. Tumble Inn is located on Waseca Avenue and was restored in 1991.

In 1913, Fred Christopher sold 40 of the 42 acres he owned to Henry William Holquist "Hank" who immediately started expansion and upgrades to the resort. He built a new hotel, dance hall, and store, and was soon out-pacing the competing resort, Clarke's Resort which had been started six years prior when Ray Boilean Clarke bought 40 acres to the east in 1907. Holquist named his resort We-non-cha Summer Resort. By the late 1920s, there were two hotels and 60 cottages. In 1933, he built the Kenosee Gardens, which was the largest dance hall there. The Gardens, as it came to be known, attracted big names in the Big Band era. There was even a casino in the Gardens. Ray Boilean Clarke's health started to fail in the 1930s. His two sons, Hugh "Puddy" and Charlie Clarke took over day-to-day operations. Charlie, though, left the resort later in the 1930s to work on a nearby farm. Ray died in 1941 leaving his widow and son, Hugh, to tend the resort. Although now closed and in disrepair, Kenosee Gardens still stands overlooking the lake from the centre of the village.

In 1942, Clarke Resort's hotel burnt down. Holquist, who was by this time getting on in years, sold his We-non-cha Summer Resort to Hugh Clarke. Clarke soon absorbed the resort into his own, removed the name We-non-cha, and became the dominant resort in the region. In 1956, Kenosee Gardens was sold to Lawrence James Albert Hirtle. Hugh died in 1958. By 1959, much of the land was surveyed and subdivided into 200 lots, which sold quickly. At this time, the RM of Wawken built roads throughout the new subdivision. In the early 1970s, it was sold to Leipert & Jones. The village of Kenosee Lake sits mostly on the original Clarke, Hirtle lands. On 5 July 1978, the community became independent of the RM and named itself "We-non-cha". In 1981, it was renamed to the Village of Kenosee Lake. In 1987, it gained official village status.

Demographics

In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, Kenosee Lake had a population of  living in  of its  total private dwellings, a change of  from its 2016 population of . With a land area of , it had a population density of  in 2021.

In the 2016 Census of Population, the Village of Kenosee Lake recorded a population of  living in  of its  total private dwellings, a  change from its 2011 population of . With a land area of , it had a population density of  in 2016.

Attractions and services
The village is at the heart of Moose Mountain Provincial Park and as such provides many of the park's services, such as a gas station, restaurant, convenience store, a private full-service campground, a church (Moose Mountain Church of Christ), and a volunteer fire department. Nearby Kenosee, in and around the park, is full-service camping, 18-hole golf, miniature golf, a casino, piers for fishing and boating, swimming, hiking, picnicking, Moose Mountain Chalet, the Kenosee Superslides, the Red Barn Market, and accommodations, such as cabins.

Sports

The Kenosee Cubs of the Saskota Baseball League play at the ball diamonds just west of the village in Moose Mountain Park.

ITA Tunnelling awards
Since 2015, the international competition "the ITA Tunnelling and Underground Space Awards" seeks and rewards the most ground-breaking innovation and outstanding projects in tunnelling and underground construction. With 8 categories, this competition aims to identify the most important ongoing underground works and technologies that help cities change and enable habits and ways of life to evolve in order to build smart and sustainable urban areas.

The first edition was held in charming and fascinating Hagerbach test gallery in Switzerland in July 2015. After the successful launch in 2015, with 110 nominations and 11 awards for projects and personalities, the second program for the ITA Tunneling Awards was held in Singapore Nov. 10-11, 2016 and supported by the TUCSS - Tunnelling and Underground Construction Society, Singapore, with 98 nominations from 25 countries competing for awards in nine categories. The 2017 edition took place on the 15th of November 2017, in Paris during the AFTES 15th International Congress from 13 to 16 November 2017. The 2018 edition took place in Chuzhou, China, Nov. 7 2018. The 2019 edition took place in Miami, in conjunction with Cutting Edge Conference of UCA of SME. The 2020 and 2021 editions ware held virtually due to the Covid Pandemic.

ITA COSUF
ITA COSUF is the Centre of Excellence for world-wide exchange of information and know-how regarding operational safety and security of underground facilities. its objectives are to develop and maintain a network to exchange knowledge and to facilitate the creation of dedicated teams and groups to perform specific (research or other) activities, promote safety and security by fostering innovation and by supporting the development of improved regulations and standards regarding safety and security of underground facilities in operation.

It currently has four Activities Groups:

 Activity Group 1: Interaction with European & International activities
 Activity Group 2: Regulations & Best Practice
 Activity Group 3: Research & New Findings
 Activity Group 4: Road Tunnel Safety Officers

ITA-CET
Since 2000, ITA, the International Tunnelling and Underground Space Association has identified education and training as one of its main strategic goals. Due to the boom in the tunnelling and underground space industry, there is a growing demand for the training of students and professionals in this field. In 2007, in order to promote and assist in the coordination of education and training in the tunnelling and underground space industry, ITA decided to create a Committee on Education and Training (the ITA-CET Committee).

To date (April 2020), over 8,500 professionals around the globe have attended over 80 training sessions organized by the ITACET Foundation in relation with the ITA-CET Committee.

ITACUS
ITACUS is one of four permanent committees of the International Tunnelling and Underground Space Association, with the mandate to reach out to policy leaders, NGOs and interrelated disciplines. ITACUS presents at worldwide congresses, seminar and workshops to create awareness of the undergrounds potential but also to foster the integration into the urban fabric through planning and applied uses. The Next Level Up is Down is the core of ITACUS vision and strategy. As cities have grown denser, it seemed only natural to extend skywards. However, the sky is not the limit: Cities need to start looking downwards to adapt to new circumstances and reach the next level of existence

ITACUS has published ‘Think Deep: Planning, development and use of underground space in cities’, a book containing five case studies by planners on underground space.

ITAtech
The aim of ITAtech is to provide a platform for engineers, manufacturers, contractors and suppliers to draw global experience and expertise together for the benefit of the whole industry, and to find ways of supporting the introduction of new techniques and products by collaborating on the development of design and performance criteria and preparing application of best-practice guidelines.

The ITAtech activity groups (AG) include all processes related to underground construction such as Data Management, Excavation, Linning, Support &Waterproofing and Design.

In 2022, ITAtech launched  ‘Low Carbon Linings’ Activity Group" on low carbon concrete linings for shafts and tunnels.

It currently has 3 Active Groups and 7 Sub-Activity groups.

 Activity Group 1: Low Carbon, launched in 2022
 Activity Group 2: Excavation
 Activity Group 3: Lining, Support & Waterproofing

Lê Chân is an urban district (quận) of Hai Phong, the third largest city of Vietnam.

Geography
Lê Chân is located at the center of Haiphong and is neighboured by the following districts:
 Ngo Quyền at the east,
 An Dương (through the Đào Hạ Lý river) and Kiến An at the west,
 Dương Kinh at the south with the Lạch Tray river as the southern border, and
 Hồng Bàng at the north.

History
Lê Chân was formerly the Lê Chân quarter of Haiphong and was established on 5 July 1961 on the basis of merging the Dư Hàng quarter with some other smaller areas belonging to the former Cầu Đất and Hàng Kênh quarters.

By 3 January 1981, the Lê Chân quarter was renamed to Lê Chân district and consisted of 11 wards: An Biên, An Dương, Cát Dài, Đông Hải, Dư Hàng, Hàng Kênh, Hồ Nam, Lam Sơn, Mê Linh, Niệm Nghĩa, and Trại Cau.

On 25 September 1981 the wards Lam Sơn and An Dương were divided into three wards: Lam Sơn, An Dương and Trần Nguyên Hãn.

On 20 December 2002 the two communes Dư Hàng Kênh and Vĩnh Niệm belonging to the former rural district An Hải were moved to the Lê Chân district for management and changed into wards with similar names.

On 10 January 2004 the Niệm Nghĩa ward was divided into 2 wards: Niệm Nghĩa and Nghĩa Xá. Also the Mê Linh ward was merged into the An Biên ward.

On 5 April 2007 the Dư Hàng Kênh ward was divided into 2 wards:  Dư Hàng Kênh and Kênh Dương.

Today Lê Chân has 15 wards: An Biên, An Dương, Cát Dài, Đông Hải, Dư Hàng, Dư Hàng Kênh, Hàng Kênh, Hồ Nam, Kênh Dương, Lam Sơn, Nghĩa Xá, Niệm Nghĩa, Trại Cau, Trần Nguyên Hãn, and Vĩnh Niệm.

Economy
Lê Chân has only a few areas for agriculture and cultivation and the size of natural land is decreasing. Even though it is no major economic, political or cultural center, Lê Chân is home to many facilities for industrial and handicraft production. The average GDP growth rate has been over many years a double-digit growth rate (25–31% per year).

Infrastructure
Nowadays Lê Chân is developing its investments for the construction of the Waterfront City urban area located at the territory of the Vĩnh Niệm ward.

Education
Lê Chân has a number of universities and colleges, e.g.:
 Vietnam Maritime University (Đại học Hàng hải Việt Nam)
 Haiphong Private University (Đại học Dân lập Hải Phòng)
 Haiphong University of Management and Technology (Đại học Quản lý và Công Nghệ Hải Phòng)
 Haiphong Medical College (Cao đẳng Y tế Hải Phòng)
 College of Technology, Economics and Fisheries (Cao đẳng nghề Công nghệ, Kinh tế và Thủy sản)

Healthcare
Some of the hospitals in Lê Chân are:
 Vietnamese-Czechoslovak Friendship Hospital (Bệnh viện Hữu Nghị Việt Tiệp)
 Haiphong International General Hospital (Bệnh viện Đa khoa quốc tế Hải Phòng)
 Haiphong Vinmec International General Hospital (Bệnh viện Đa khoa Quốc tế Vinmec Hải Phòng)
 Green International Hospital (Bệnh viện Quốc tế Green)

The Donor Sibling Registry is a website and non-profit US organization serving donor offspring, sperm donors, egg donors and other donor conceived people. It was founded in September 2000 by a mother-and-son team, Wendy Kramer and Ryan Kramer of Nederland, Colorado.

Purpose and goals
The Donor Sibling Registry (DSR) was founded in 2000 to assist individuals conceived as a result of sperm, egg or embryo donation who are seeking to make mutually desired contact with others with whom they share genetic ties. The DSR has pioneered an international discussion about the donor conception industry and the families, with its research, media appearances, speaking engagements, and interviews. The DSR advocates for the right to honesty and transparency for donor-conceived people, for social acceptance and legal rights, and values the diversity of all families.

History
The DSR began as a Yahoo! group, which was created in September 2000. It was started by Wendy Kramer and her then 10-year-old son Ryan Kramer as a means of communicating with other offspring of artificial insemination. After the first year, the group was home to only 37 members. In October 2002, Wendy created a press release which was sent to local news agencies. The story was picked up by Denver's NBC affiliate, KUSA-TV. Shortly after, a small article about the DSR was written for The Denver Post. This article led to national and international media coverage, giving the DSR enough exposure to grow its member base into the thousands. In 2003 the DSR became a 501(c)3 charity organization and moved from a Yahoo group to its own database website.

Research
The DSR has conducted and published dozens of papers in peer-reviewed academic and legal journals.

Matches
When a donor-conceived person, a parent of a donor-conceived person or a sperm or egg donor signs up to the Donor Sibling Registry, they are automatically filed under their respective facility/clinic/cryobank by their donor number.  Matches and messages from potential matches can only be viewed for an annual membership fee. If only one person of a donor number is listed, the posting is white.  When two or more people sign up under the same donor number, they are filed together as a "match".  Matches can occur between half siblings (light yellow), sperm donors and their offspring (dark yellow), or egg donors and their offspring (also dark yellow).

Due to changes in technology and the introduction of the commercially available home DNA tests, the ability of Donor Sibling Registry to be an effective use of resources may be outdated.

An Dương is a rural district (huyện) of Hai Phong, the third largest city of Vietnam. It is located in the west of Hai Phong city. It separated from An Hải district in 2002. An Dương's area is 98.3196 km2 and its population is 150,000 people (in 2008). The district is adjacent to Hải Dương province in the west and northwest, An Lão district in the southwest, Kiến An district in the south, Thủy Nguyên district in the north and Hồng Bàng and Lê Chân districts in the southeast. It contains 16 administrative units, including one town, An Dương, and 15 communes: Lê Thiện, Đại Bản, An Hòa, Hồng Phong, Tân Tiến, An Hưng, An Hồng, Bắc Sơn, Nam Sơn, Lê Lợi, Đặng Cương, Đồng Thái, Quốc Tuấn, An Đồng and Hồng Thái.

Economy

 In 2003, the Prime Minister signed the decree to adjust the administrative boundaries of Hai Phong. As a result of that, some agricultural towns were added to An Dương district. After 10 years of re-establishment the average income of An Dương district reached $1,450. An Dương has a high speed of urbanization and industrialization compared to other places in Vietnam.
 This area is important in the industrial and agricultural services of Hai Phong. An Dương has various industrial districts such as Nomura industrial district, Bến Kiền industrial district, Hai Phong-Saigon industrial district (under construction) and Đặng Cương industrial district (under planning).
An Dương's government has focused on accelerating the economic restructuring towards industrialization and modernization, creating conditions to attract investment for projects to promote the economy. The government has attempted to strengthen agricultural and rural industrialization, emphasising plants and animals with high quality in agricultural production, increasing economic efficiency in the area, and increasing the share of livestock to develop in a sustainable way. Rapid economic development has improved the quality of growth and sustainability, therefore maximising the potential and advantages to restructure the economy, especially in the service and construction fields, strengthening the economic restructuring towards comprehensive agricultural and commodity production, accelerating flowers, vegetables and plant projects in some localities and strengthening management of land use and promoting rural urbanization.

Traffic

 An Dương district has the two most important traffic routes which are highways 5A and 10. They play an important role in developing the economy. Other important highways include provincial highways 188 and 351. Together with highways 5A and 10, they help allow travel between the districts, allowing easier movement between them.

History

An Dương contains some of the ancient architecture within Vietnam, containing many temples and pagodas, including Phúc Linh pagoda, Vân Tra temple, Vĩnh Khê temple, Tri Yếu temple and Nhu Thượng temple. These buildings preserves the ancient architecture, and festivals can be held there.

Festivals

Two most famous festivals in An Dương are Vĩnh Khê temple and Vân Tra village festivals.
 Vĩnh Khê temple is located in Vĩnh Khê village, An Đồng commune. This festival occurs each year on the 7th of January to celebrate the birth of Vũ Trung and Vũ Giao, the two ingenious tactical generals in Trần Nghệ Tông's empire (1370–1372), to show respect for them. A wrestling contest takes place in the festival, and although it only lasts for one day, it attracts many people, which can result in the temple becoming very crowded. On the day before the contest, the elderly nominate two old men that satisfy these conditions: have good morals, rich, have children, no funeral, and clean clothes to become the examiners. The two men have to wear the same clothes.
 Vân Tra village is also located in An Đồng commune. The festival is annually on the 14th and 15th of January. Many activities occur such as cockfighting and chess, which attract both participants and viewers, although wrestling still attracts the most viewers. Wrestlers come from other provinces such as An Lão, Vĩnh Bảo and Tiên Lãng to fight each other. After that, in mid-February, Vân Tra village holds a festival to commemorate the merits of Dao Loi.

Marcel Alexandre Bertrand (2 July 1847 – 13 February 1907) was a French geologist born in Paris. He was the son of mathematician Joseph Louis François Bertrand (1822–1900), and son-in-law to physicist Éleuthère Mascart (1837-1908).

He studied at the École Polytechnique, and beginning in 1869 he attended the Ecole des Mines de Paris. From 1877 he carried out geological mapping studies of Provence, the Jura Mountains and the Alps. In 1886, he became an instructor at the École Nationale Supérieure des Mines, and in 1896 became a member of the Académie des sciences.

Bertrand, a founder of modern tectonics, originated an orogenic "wave theory" of mountain-building and introduced the nappe hypothesis (). His wave theory described a build-up of massive folds of earth taking place over successive geological eras, called the Caledonian, Hercynian and Alpine periods of orogeny. Bertrand later added a fourth event called the Huronian orogeny, which took place 2400 to 2100 million years ago, in Precambrian time.

In 1890 he was named president of the Société géologique de France.
The Concours de Géologie twice awarded him the Prix Vaillant (1886 and 1890); he also won the Prix Fontannes (of the Société géologique de France) in 1888 and the Prix Petit d'Ormoy in 1893.

Personal life
He was married to Mathilde Mascart and their daughter, Thérèse Bertrand-Fontaine (1895 – 1987), became a physician and researcher. She was only the third woman to be named a full member of the National Academy of Medicine.

Arthur Bernstein (February 4, 1909 – January 4, 1964) was an American jazz double bassist.

Born in Brooklyn, New York, he started his musical career playing cello on board cruise ships to South America, and also studied law at New York University. However, by 1929 he had started playing bass, and began performing in clubs around New York City. He performed with trumpeter Red Nichols, Red Norvo, Kay Thompson, Lou Bring, Ziggy Elman, The Boswell Sisters, and others, and recorded with Ben Pollack, Jimmy and Tommy Dorsey, and many others in the 1930s. In 1939 he performed with Benny Goodman at the second From Spirituals to Swing concert.

He fell out with Goodman in 1941 - Goodman fiddled with Bernstein's music-stand light so that he would have problems reading the music and appear incompetent, giving Goodman a pretext to fire him. After leaving Goodman in the summer of 1941, Bernstein planned on heading to Los Angeles for work from New York. Before heading out though, he learned that Teddy Wilson's bassist Israel Crosby was forced to leave the band for Chicago and be inducted into the army. So Bernstein halted his own plans in order to fill in for Wilson for a week until he could hire a new bassist, Bernstein even giving his week's salary to Crosby. A noble gesture rarely seen in the industry at the time.

Despite his fallout with Goodman, he won the Down Beat readers' poll in 1943. He later moved to Los Angeles and worked in the film industry for such companies as Universal Studios and Warner Bros., continuing to work for the latter organization until 1963.

He died in Los Angeles at the age of 54.

The Catholic dioceses in Great Britain are organised by two separate hierarchies: the Catholic Church in England and Wales, and the Catholic Church in Scotland. Within Great Britain, the Catholic Church in England and Wales has five provinces, subdivided into 22 dioceses, and the Catholic Church in Scotland has two provinces, subdivided into 8 dioceses. The Catholic dioceses in Northern Ireland are organised together with those in the Republic of Ireland, as the Catholic Church in Ireland was not divided when civil authority in Ireland was partitioned in 1921.

A diocese, also sometimes known popularly as a bishopric, is an administrative unit under the supervision of a bishop. The Diocese of Westminster is considered the mother church of English and Welsh Catholics, and although not formally a primate, the Archbishop of Westminster is usually elected President of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales, providing a degree of a formal direction for the other English bishops and archbishops.

From the time of the English Reformation in the 16th century, with Catholicism being declared illegal, there were no Catholic dioceses in England and Wales. From 1688, there came to be appointed several apostolic vicars, clergymen in episcopal orders, governing a territory not in their own name, as diocesan bishops do, but provisionally in the name of the Pope. However, with the passing of the Roman Catholic Relief Act 1829, legalising the practice of the Catholic faith again, Pope Pius IX re-established the Catholic Church diocesan hierarchy on 29 September 1850 by issuing the bull . The Hierarchy in Scotland was restored in 1878.

The names of the Catholic dioceses as re-established did not adopt the names of the then existing medieval dioceses, once Catholic and now (in England) Anglican. Three current English Catholic dioceses, those of Leeds, Liverpool, and Portsmouth, share their territorial name with Anglican dioceses, the Anglican Diocese of Leeds, the Anglican Diocese of Liverpool, and the Anglican Diocese of Portsmouth respectively. However, in these cases the dioceses cover differing areas and the Anglican diocese was set up later than the Catholic one.

The Catholic Church in Scotland comprises two Latin ecclesiastical provinces each headed by a Metropolitan archbishop. In addition to the archbishop and his see, each province in turn contains a number of "suffragan" dioceses, each headed by a bishop. In Scotland there are a total of 6 such suffragan dioceses, making overall eight dioceses when the 2 archdioceses are included.

There is an Apostolic Nunciature to Great Britain which is the institutional papal diplomatic representation at full embassy level to the British authorities. The "ambassador", who in fact carries the centuries-old title of "nuncio", has relations with the government of the United Kingdom, and in a different mode with the Catholic bishops of England, Wales and Scotland. He has no dealings with the government of the Irish Republic nor with the Catholic bishops in any part of Ireland. A fellow nuncio, resident in Dublin, is a diplomat accredited to the Irish government and also has dealings with the Irish Catholic bishops both north and south of the border. Other Commonwealth territories are covered by a variety of analogous papal representatives, quite independently of the nuncio in London.

Al-Afdal al-Abbas (; r. 1363–1377) was a ruler of Yemen and a member of the Rasulid dynasty.

He was the son and successor of sultan al-Mujahid Ali. He produced a multilingual "dictionary" defining terms in Arabic, Persian, Turkic, Greek, Armenian, and Mongolian. He also took measures against extortion by local bureaucrats in the ports of the kingdom, thereby striving to maintain the attraction of Yemen in the eyes of foreign merchants. When he stayed in Aden one winter he was "dealing out measures of justice such are not usual. He gave robes of honour to the ship captains, and abolished many things recently introduced by the collectors of taxes. So the merchants departed recounting his praises and his abundant gifts in all quarters by land and by sea." At his death in 1377 he was succeeded by his son al-Ashraf Isma'il.

The 1931 Monaco Grand Prix was a Grand Prix motor race held at the Circuit de Monaco on 19 April 1931.

With 16 Bugattis in a field of 23 cars, the event was close to being a single-make race. Among the 16 were four factory-team Type 51s driven by the Monegasque Louis Chiron, the Italian Achille Varzi and the French Albert Divo and Guy Bouriat. The real challenge came from the Maserati 8C 2500's driven by René Dreyfus, the Italian Luigi Fagioli and Clemente Bondietti. Rudolf Caracciola with his huge Mercedes SSKL (Super Sport Short Light-Weight) was uncompetitive as his larger car performed poorly around the tight Monaco track.

The race was between the blue cars from Molsheim and the red ones from Modena. When the start flag dropped it was Rene Dreyfus in his red Maserati who led into St. Devote, only to be passed by 'Williams' on the hill to the Casino, but his lead was short-lived as the Brit was sidelined by a broken valve spring, and his race was over. Achille Varzi and Caracciola started closing on Dreyfus and Varzi managed to overtake the Frenchman on the 7th lap. Caracciola struggled with a slipping clutch that gave in on lap 53.

Starting slowly, Louis Chiron eventually displayed his talents; gaining back ground with a new lap record time. He caught up with all his opponents and left them behind. Chiron, a native of Monaco, finished the race some 5 minutes ahead of Luigi Fagioli.

Jean Bugatti could not control his joy and jumped over the parapet of the bleachers and fell into Louis Chiron's arms. For the Monegasque, this Monaco Grand Prix victory really confirmed his reputation.
