Geography
The city itself, at 595 metres above sea level, is formed by an amphitheater on a hill between the Plateau de Valensole and the valley of Notre Dame. The commune is one of the most expansive of the region and contains many hamlets.

The river Asse forms most of the commune's northern border, then flows into the Durance, which forms all of its western border.

Geology
The beginning of the Tertiary era is marked by the lifting of the Pyrenees Mountains between 60 and 40 Ma. The repercussions of the lifting formed in the region of Valensole big mountains and little mountainous chains : Lure, Ventoux, Luberon, Nerthe, Étoile..., oriented east-west. During the Pyrenean raising, the Durance fault was active. The west lowered and the east raised, demarcating a vast river-lake zone : the Forcalquier basin, that receives, among others, the sediments coming from the east zone. For 15 thousand years, the Alps continue their formation. The powerful geologic movements accentuate again the east-west fold of the Provencal chains and mountains. The Durance fault is demonstrated once again. The occidental zone raises while the oriental zone sunk, forming a large depression in which waters of the ancestral torrents flowed, coming from south of the Estérel-Corso-Sarde Mountains. These powerful rivers, fed by violent climate phenomenons, transport large quantities of materials : pebbles, sand, clay, soluble limestone, taken into the depression where they accumulate to form an enormous deposit of Valensole's "poudingues", resulting from thousands of years of erosion in a karst environment.

Toward 8 Ma, the Estérel-corso-sardre mountain collapsed, isolating Corsica and Sardinia from the continent, which profoundly modified the hydrographic network. The rivers of Base-Provence that flow toward the plateau of Valensole and toward the Mediterranean Sea. The filling has followed from 5 or 6 thousand years. The visit deposit of Valensole is constituted by layers of pebbles more or less crude without the origins and the currents. The pebbles are cemented in different ways between the following - deposits, compressions, which demarcate the last layers and the layers most crumbly. The height of these deposits reach 838 meters toward Fourevière on the limit of the commune of the Mées and of Puimichel (between Guillot and the Allemands), and 400 meters on the heights of Volonne. Under the weight of this mass of materials, the terrestrial exterior sunk, that provokes movements of the deposit edge.

The levels move, tumble, subside, provoking folds and faults. The accumulation of conglomerates of Valensole spreads out for around 10 thousand years. Toward 3 Ma, the filling-in stopped.

The rivers will rearrange their valleys through the poudingue and the pluvial, glacial, fluvial, erosion will cut the relief of the plateau in forming small valleys and hills.

Town planning

According to the terminology defined by Insee and the zoning published in 2020, Valensole is an urban municipality. It belongs to the monocommunal urban unit of Valensole, with 3,204 inhabitants in 2017, thus being an isolated town.

Immersive Media Company (IMC) was a digital imaging company specializing in spherical immersive video, founded in 1994.  The parent company Immersive Ventures was headquartered in Kelowna, British Columbia with Immersive Media Company offices in Dallas, Texas. In 2011, Immersive Ventures acquired the assets of Immersive Media Company from Ember Clear and relaunched all products and services under the Immersive Media brand.

The company was acquired by Digital Domain in 2016.

History
Immersive Media Company was founded in 1994. Director James Cameron was a co-founder.

In 1995 it created the world's first full motion, fully immersive video movie.  The movie featured a basketball game where the camera was placed on a tripod on the court.  The video was debuted at the 1995 SIGGRAPH convention in Los Angeles, California.
Between 1994 and 2003, the company focused predominantly on research and development. In 2004, Immersive Media launched the Dodeca System, the first spherical camera that was all digital. In 2006, IMC launched the GeoImmersive City Collect project, sending Volkswagen Beetles equipped with camera systems to collect georeferenced video of major streets in cities within the United States and Canada.

IMC initially introduced the street view concept to Google, and delivered the first 35 cities which were viewed by more than 75 million people in the first four days. Google subsequently cancelled its agreement with IMC and chose to build its own cameras for its on-going investment in immersive geo-media. Although street view imagery is displayed as stills by Google, IMC originally shot the footage as full-frame video, with backing film stills in .JPG format appearing as the video is paused. This is the method that IMC continues to use today for its street view and aerial coverage of cities.

In 2007, IMC acquired Freestone Systems, Inc. in Dallas, Texas, the manufacturer of the cameras. Their name was changed to IMC Sensors, Inc. In June 2007, IMC was named to the 2007 TSX Venture 50, a ranking of Canada's top emerging companies listed on the TSX Venture Exchange.

In 2008, IMC introduced "Patrol View", a military version of its street view technology and services to map Iraq and other theatres of war. Also in 2008, IMC innovated new production techniques for entertainment and sports productions culminating with an award-winning campaign for Mercedes Benz; as well as producing a rarely seen music video for Grammy nominee Dierks Bentley.

In 2009, IMC's video platform was chosen by MapQuest in the launch of its new '360 View' service. In the same year, IMC introduced the world's first web-streaming live concert in 360-degree full motion interactive video using its new imLIVE(TM) server. Canada's Much On Demand music channel covered the concert and streamed Much's daily in-studio show.

The destruction following the January 2010 Haiti earthquake was covered by IMC. IMC donated its services and the video footage was used on news-gathering websites worldwide, and IMC's technology was covered in special features on CNN. The company similarly covered the 2010 Chile earthquake several months later.

In 2010, IMC covered the Vancouver Olympic Games for NBC, most notably webcasting The Today Show live for two hours daily in full 360-degrees, along with other feature segments during the games. In other sports in 2010, IMC broadcast "Hockey Night in Canada" for Canadian Broadcasting (CBC Sports) live each week of the 2010 hockey season and during the 2010 season play-offs.

In 2010, Immersive Media (Calgary) changed its name to Ember Clear and closed down the Immersive Media operations. Two days after operations were ceased, former executive management of IMC formed Immersive Ventures and produced the first ever 360 mobile application for the Black Eyed Peas, BEP360, available on iTunes. In 2011,  Immersive Ventures acquired the assets of Immersive Media Company from Ember Clear and relaunched all products and services under the Immersive Media brand.

In 2011, Immersive Media partnered with Livestream to produce the world's first live 360-degree stream of the Black Eyed Peas Concert from Central Park, New York City.

In April 2015, IMC entered into a partnership with Hollywood FX firm Digital Domain Holdings to create content, in a venture known as IM360.

In January 2016, IMC was acquired by Digital Domain for .

Products and services
Immersive Media's product platform and IP touch all areas of the production process, from capture, stitching, post production, distribution and play back.  The first capture system was the Dodeca 2360, a camera named after the geodesic geometry of the Dodecahedron, on which the patent is based.  The twelve-sided camera has eleven lenses which simultaneously record video. The twelfth side is the base of the camera. There is a base unit recording system which inputs the data and records video and other information onto hard drives.  The imagery can be paired with metadata, such as time and GPS coordinates.  There are now four different types of cameras depending on the type of environment and whether the production will be live or on demand and whether it will be streamed to the web, a mobile device or a set-top box.

Immersive Media focused on three markets: situational awareness, geographic information systems (GIS)/mapping, and entertainment and advertising for such client brands as Mercedes-Benz, Microsoft, Red Bull, Armani Jeans, the NBA, NBC Sports, Adidas, MTV and PEOPLE.

Its clients included Disney, Mountain Dew and Mercedes-Benz.

Notable work
IMC produced FX for several movies, including co-founder James Cameron's Titanic, Pirates of the Caribbean, the X-Men series and Furious 7.

In the 2005 Inaugural Parade of George W. Bush, the U.S. Capitol Police used Immersive Media's camera on their car for security in the presidential motorcade. IMC cameras were also used for the 2009 inauguration of President Barack Obama.

Immersive Media had a camera underwater to survey coral reefs in Fiji with the Planetary Coral Reef Foundation in 2007.

In May 2007, Immersive Media's imagery was launched in Google Maps application "Google Street View". Immersive Media's street-level imagery displayed still-image panoramas of street images, although the actual imagery was collected as a video.

Immersive Media collaborated with the National Geographic Society and the Alaska Whale Foundation for their deployment of Crittercams on Humpback whales in Alaska in 2007.

Adidas used Immersive Media to capture David Beckham's first U.S. soccer game with the Los Angeles Galaxy in the summer of 2007.  adidas also incorporated Immersive Media's imagery in a Fall 2007 marketing campaign titled "Basketball is a Brotherhood".

During 2007-8 Immersive Media embarked on their most ambitious productions for clients in the United States including Mercedes Benz, Dierks Bentley, NBA Sports, NBC Sports, The Grammy Awards and People Magazine.  Unlike their other single camera productions or "collects," the productions during this period were multi-camera productions featuring innovative lighting and sound solutions for 360 video.  Post Production during this time period included compositing and visual effects to enhance the video footage which resulted in "story shaped" content and a new approach to film making.  The entertainment division succeeded in achieving representation by William Morris Digital and in facilitating the creation of interactive video ad units with EyeWonder.

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation uses the technology for broadcasting its weekly "Hockey Night in Canada" games.

The Messerschmitt P.1112 was a proposed German jet fighter, developed by Messerschmitt AG during the closing stages of World War II, and intended for use by the Luftwaffe. The progress of the war prevented the completion of a prototype before the fall of Nazi Germany. Its design, however, had a direct influence on postwar US Navy carrier fighters.

Design and development
The work on the Me P.1112 started on 25 February 1945 after Willy Messerschmitt decided to halt the development of the Messerschmitt P.1111, which would have required, as standard equipment, a pressurized cockpit and ejection seat. Designed by the head of the Messerschmitt Project Office Woldemar Voigt (1907–1980), between 3 and 30 March 1945 as an alternative to the Me P.1111, the Me P.1112 design was less radical than the P.1111 and incorporated the lessons learned from the development of the Messerschmitt P.1110 design. Voigt estimated that the Me P.1112 would commence flight testing by mid-1946.

Intended to be powered by a single Heinkel HeS 011 turbojet, three design concepts of the Me P.1112 were developed. The last proposed design was the Me P.1112/V1 using a V-tail design and fuselage lateral intakes; the two first were the Me P.1112 S/1, with wing root air intakes, and the Me P.1112 S/2, with fuselage lateral intakes, both with a larger, single fin; both designs lacked conventional horizontal stabilizers. All three had a fuselage maximum diameter of .  The aircraft's wing design was similar in appearance to that of Messerschmitt's Me 163 Komet rocket fighter. The pilot was seated in a semi-reclined position, and was equipped with an ejection seat.

A partial mockup of the Me P.1112 V/1, consisting of the aircraft's forward fuselage section, was constructed in the "Conrad von Hötzendorf" Kaserne at Oberammergau, but the Messerschmitt facilities there were occupied by American troops in April 1945, before construction of the prototype could begin.

Although the Me P.1112 was never completed, follow-on designs were already proposed, even as design work on the type itself was done. These included a proposed night fighter version, which was intended to be fitted with twin engines mounted in the wing roots of the aircraft.

Following the war, Voigt's experience in tailless aircraft design was put to use by the Chance Vought company  in the United States, where he was involved in the design of the F7U Cutlass fighter.

Hjerkinn Station  is a railway station located at Hjerkinn in Dovre, Norway. The station is located on the Dovre Line and served by four daily express trains each direction to Oslo and Trondheim. There is no settlement at Hjerkinn, though there is an army base as well as the nearby Dovre National Park.

The station was opened in 1921 as part of the Dovre Line when it was extended from Dombås to Trondheim. The building has been preserved as a cultural heritage site, but the buildings have been worn down due to the weather. The highest point of the Dovre Line, at 1024 meters, is about one kilometer north of the station.

is a 1924 short French silent comedy film directed by Abel Gance and starring Max Linder. The French title translates into English as "Help!". The film is also known as The Haunted House in some reference books. The film was made on a dare, with Gance filming the entire project in three days, with the help of his friend, actor Max Linder. Linder had just returned to France after several years of trying to start an acting career in Canada.

Max Linder, depressed since his service in World War I, had earlier entered into a suicide pact with his younger wife in 1924, the year after they were married, but the attempt failed and the event was hushed up. Their second attempt succeeded however in 1925, and the pair succumbed to an overdose of poison and blood loss from slitting their wrists, leaving behind a very young daughter Maud. Quentin Tarantino included a reference/ homage to Linder in his 2009 film, Inglourious Basterds.

Plot
The boastful Count Maulette dares some guests in a private club to spend one hour in a haunted house he knows of. A young newlywed named Max takes on the challenge, and they bet a thousand francs on it. Max must stay in the castle from 11 PM until midnight in order to win the bet. The Count arranges for Max to have a bell he can ring for help, but if he rings the bell, he loses the bet.

After Max is locked inside, he is assaulted by a wild barrage of seemingly weird supernatural events (a mannequin comes to life and assaults him, men in skeleton costumes prance about, wild animals wander the corridors and ghosts seem to fly about). Finally, just as he is about to win the bet, the phone rings and Max is told that his wife back home is being threatened by an intruder. Panic-stricken, Max rings the bell minutes before midnight to run to his wife's defense, and therein loses the bet. The audience later discovers it was the Count calling him on the phone, pretending Max's wife was in danger.

Criticism
Critic Christopher Workman writes the film's "horrific incidents.....none of it particularly funny or scary, employ props, techniques and effects that were already old hat in 1924 --- fast motion, slow motion, wire work, superimpositions, stunt doubles on trampolines, men in ghost and skeleton costumes, a man on stilts, etc....".

The Éolienne Bollée is an unusual wind turbine, unique for having a stator and a rotor, as a water turbine has. The eponymous invention was first patented in 1868 by Ernest Sylvain Bollée in France. A further patent dated 1885 differed mainly in two ways: First, in how the turbine was turned to face the wind and second, in an improvement which increased the flow of wind through the turbine was added. The turbines built according to the 1885 patent were commercially successful.

The windpump business
Ernest Sylvain Bollée (19 July 1814 – 1891) and Auguste Sylvain Bollée (1847–1906) took out the original patent No. 79985 in 1868 for a "hydraulic wind engine". Ernest Bollée described himself as a hydraulic engineer in Le Mans, Sarthe. During the 1860s, due to poor health, Ernest delegated control of the three parts of his business to each of his sons. Auguste was given control of the wind engine manufacturing side of the business. The patent of 1885, with the improvements, is No.167726. In 1898 Auguste sold the business to Édouard-Émile Lebert. Auguste is estimated to have made about 260 Éoliennes. Lebert passed the business to Gaston Duplay in 1918 and on 1 January 1926 the business passed to the Société Anonyme des Éoliennes Bollée (SAEB). SAEB erected at least three  éoliennes. Operations seem to have ceased around 1931.

Construction

The Éolienne Bollée was designed to be constructed in a modular form, thus allowing éoliennes of various sizes to be built. The tower could be a standard pylon type, either of triangular or square plan, or a cast-iron column with an external spiral staircase. The éoliennes built with this type of tower have a very distinctive appearance. The actual turbine itself consists of two rings, the first being the stator and the second being the rotor. The stator has more blades than the rotor. A new device added to the 1885 patent was a funnel affixed to the stator, enabling the éolienne to capture wind from a larger area than the rotor, and increasing its speed through the turbine. A small fantail operated upwind of the rotor, and through a system of gears turned the turbine to face the wind. Also, through a counterweight system, it turned the turbine out of wind as the wind speed increased, thus preventing damage in very strong winds, when the éolienne would be edge on into the prevailing wind.

The cast-iron columns were made in  sections of  diameter, having twelve cast-iron treads or wrought iron steps forming a complete spiral around the column. A half column was available, allowing éoliennes to be built to any desired height.

Unique feature
The Éolienne Bollée is unique amongst other forms of windmill because of the stator. All windmills have a rotor, whether it is the sails on a traditional windmill or the blades of a modern wind turbine. The Éolienne Bollée is the only wind-powered turbine where the wind passes through a set of fixed blades (stator) before driving the windmill itself (rotor).

Operation
The rotor is turned by the wind, and through a bevel wheel drives a shaft inside the column (if used) or in the centre of the tower. At the lower end this drives a horizontal shaft through a gearbox, which typically drives three throw pump.

Sizes
The éoliennes came in four sizes: , ,  and  diameter.
The 2.5 m éolienne has a 24 blade stator and an 18 blade rotor.
The 3.53 m éolienne has a 34 blade stator and a 24 blade rotor.
The 5 m éolienne has a 44 blade stator and a 32 blade rotor.

It was claimed that a 3.53 m éolienne with a  pump would be able to pump:
 of water per hour in a  wind,
 of water per hour in a  wind,
 of water per hour in a  wind, and
 of water per hour in a  wind.

Pumps were available in seven sizes: , , , , , , and  diameter.

Variation

Lebert built some very similar wind engines with a single rotor, and lacking the stator (thus they were not true turbines). They were either  or  diameter. At least three of these are known to have been built, including at Rugles, Eure and Parigné-l'Évêque, Sarthe.

The Clarkson wind engine consisted of a rotor or a number of rotors, one behind the other, revolving in a casing with fixed guide vanes between and of opposite pitch to those of the rotors, and having a further casing to admit a fresh supply of wind to the rotors behind. The cylindrical casings are open at each end with a larger opening facing the wind. The wind catches a number of wheels and feathered vanes fixed to a shaft revolving in bearings inside the casings. When the wind has passed between the vanes of the front wheel it is directed by the guide vanes to the second wheel and is again taken up by guides and passed to a third wheel and so on, the action each time increasing the effect of the wind on the shaft and improving efficiency. The Clarkson of which an illustration survives (1919) was erected by the Air Power Co. of Prestwich, Cheshire on the estate of Lord Derby. This small engine was designed to work in a  wind, but could start under load in a wind of only . The wind wheel was only  diameter and is designed to lift  of water per hour to a height of  in a  wind, or double that quantity in a  wind. All the Air Power wind engines were fitted with roller bearings, a starting and stopping arrangement and an automatic gear to cut off all wind above any desired velocity. They were mounted on a strong steel tower, with a ladder and circular platform.

Purchasers
In the early years, under the Bollée family, the vast majority of purchasers were aristocrats and gentry, only six éoliennes being sold to municipalities by 1888. After Lebert took over, the pattern of sales changed, with more éoliennes being sold for communal water supply, particularly in Indre-et-Loire and Sarthe .

A few éoliennes were sold abroad, including two to a monastery at Cowfold, Sussex; one to a monastery at Tarragona, Spain; one to a hospital in Tunisia; one to a mine in Brazil; and one to Cotonou, Dahomey.

Locations

Some éoliennes have survived. In France, the oldest surviving éolienne is at the Bollée bell foundry in Saint-Jean-de-Braye, near Orléans. One is preserved in working order at Épuisay, Loir-et-Cher, and another at the Bollée museum in Orléans. A few have been restored to working order. The grounds of Château Bouvet-Ladubay in Saumur also contain an excellent example.

An Éolienne Bollée described
The éolienne at Épuisay is on a square plan lattice tower of eight sections,  high. The  rotor drives a pump which pumps water from a depth of , the pump itself being at a depth of . A  petrol engine was provided to work the pumps in times of calm. By wind,  an hour could be pumped.

Randall V. Mills (1907-1952) was a professor of literature with a variety of interests related to the Pacific Northwest, including steamboats, railroads and folklore.

Early life and education
Randall was born in Wisconsin in 1907. In 1929 Mills received his undergraduate degree from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).  His master's degree was received from University of California, Berkeley in 1932.

University of Oregon
He became part of the University of Oregon English faculty in 1938.  Mills had a variety of interests. One of his main interests was in the history of transportation in the Pacific Northwest, especially steamboats and railroads. He was also interested in all aspects of covered bridges. Another subject for which Mills showed enthusiasm was folklore, particularly proverbs, dialects, songs, superstitions and place names.

Folklore
He was the founder and first president of the Oregon Folklore Society.  He served as Director for the Oregon branch of the American Dialect Society, he also chaired the state sub-committee for the collection of dialect sayings.  He held the position of associate editor for Western Folklore.  Mills died in 1952 at the age of 44.

Legacy
The University of Oregon named its folklore archives in honor of Mills. The Randall V. Mills Archives of Northwest Folklore, established in 1966, serve as a repository for information collected in Oregon by scholars and students of folklore. The archives are the largest facility of their kind in the Pacific Northwest of the United States.  During his life, Mills assembled a collection of photographic negatives and prints of photographs depicting covered bridges and steamship captains in Oregon and railroad locomotives and cars in the western United States.  This collection is now held by the University of Oregon.

Denbigh District of Boroughs (variously referred to as Denbigh District, Denbigh Boroughs or just Denbigh) was a parliamentary constituency centred on the town of Denbigh in Wales.  It returned one Member of Parliament (MP) to the British House of Commons.

The constituency first returned an MP in 1542, to the English Parliament.  From 1707 to 1800, the MPs sat in the Parliament of Great Britain, and after the Act of Union 1800, in the Parliament of the United Kingdom.

The constituency was abolished for the 1918 general election.

Boundaries
From its first known general election in 1542 until 1918, the constituency consisted of a number of boroughs within the historic county of Denbighshire in Wales.

The seat should not be confused with the county constituency of Denbighshire, which existed from the sixteenth century until 1885. The county was divided into East Denbighshire and West Denbighshire between 1885 and 1918.

After 1918 Denbighshire was represented in Parliament by two single member county constituencies, which included all the boroughs formerly in the Denbigh District of Boroughs. One of these was Wrexham, but the other was the Denbigh division of Denbighshire.

Denbigh (1535–1832)
On the basis of information from several volumes of the History of Parliament, it is apparent that the history of the borough representation from Wales and Monmouthshire is more complicated than that of the English boroughs.

The Laws in Wales Act 1535 (26 Hen. VIII, c. 26) provided for a single borough seat for each of 11 of the 12 Welsh counties and Monmouthshire. The legislation was ambiguous as to which communities were enfranchised. The county towns were awarded a seat, but this in some fashion represented all the ancient boroughs of the county as the others were required to contribute to the members wages. It was not clear if the burgesses of the contributing boroughs could take part in the election. The only election under the original scheme was for the 1542 Parliament. It seems that only burgesses from the county towns actually took part. An Act of 1544 (35 Hen. VIII, c. 11) confirmed that the contributing boroughs could send representatives to take part in the election at the county town. As far as can be told from surviving indentures of returns, the degree to which the out boroughs participated varied, but by the end of the sixteenth century all the seats had some participation from them at some elections at least.

The original scheme was modified by later legislation and decisions of the House of Commons (which were sometimes made with no regard to precedent or evidence: for example in 1728 it was decided that only the freemen of the borough of Montgomery could participate in the election for that seat, thus disenfranchising the freemen of Llanidloes, Welshpool and Llanfyllin).

In the case of Denbighshire, the county town was Denbigh. The out boroughs were Chirk, Holt, and Ruthin. At some point, between 1603 and 1690, Chirk ceased to participate.

In 1690–1790 the freemen of the three remaining boroughs were entitled to vote. There were about 1,400 electors in 1715 (including non-resident freemen). This number was reduced to about 400 after 1744, when only resident freemen were allowed to vote. The electorate increased to about 500 in the 1754–1790 period.

Denbigh Boroughs (1832–1918)
This was a district of boroughs constituency, which grouped a number of parliamentary boroughs in Denbighshire into one single member constituency. The voters from each participating borough cast ballots, which were added together over the whole district to decide the result of the poll. The enfranchised communities in this district, from 1832, were the four boroughs of Denbigh, Holt, Ruthin, and Wrexham.

The exact boundaries of the parliamentary boroughs in the district were altered by the Parliamentary Boundaries Act 1868, but the general nature of the constituency was unchanged. There were no further boundary changes in the 1885 redistribution of parliamentary seats.

After 1918
In the redistribution of seats which took place at the 1918, the Denbigh Boroughs constituency was abolished, along with the two county divisions of East Denbighshire and West Denbighshire. They were replaced by a new county division called Denbigh, which comprised the whole of the county, except for the Municipal Borough of Wrexham and part of the Chirk Rural District which formed the Wrexham division.

The local authorities in the Denbigh division were the Municipal Boroughs of Denbigh and Ruthin; the Urban Districts of Abergele and Pensarn, Colwyn Bay and Colwyn, Llangollen, and Llanrwst; as well as the Rural Districts of Llangollen, Llanrwst, Llansillin, Ruthin, St Asaph (Denbigh), Uwchaled, part of Chirk, and the part of Glan Conway not in Caernarvonshire.

Mossa Bildner is a Brazilian multi-disciplinary artist best known for vocal work with Henry Threadgill and for arranging the Colours of Ritual performances in New York City.

Background
Bildner grew up in Rio de Janeiro where she was exposed to a wide variety of music. In her teens she attended Umbanda and Candomble ceremonies and formed a lifelong love of the Afro-Brazilian styles.  Bildner studied Opera Performance at the Conservatorio Santa Cecilia in Rome, Italy, graduating in 1983. Her tutors included Yolanda Magnoni, Franco Mannino, and Luigi Ricci. She continued her vocal studies in London with Vera Rosza and Robert Southerland, in Vienna with Tito Gobbi and Sena Jurinac, and at the Mozarteum in Salzburg. Bildner went on to perform at the English National Opera, Welsh National Opera, Scottish Opera, and elsewhere in Europe, including two years as a member at the Theater Augsburg. After arriving in New York in 1990, Henry Threadgill heard Bildner sing and invited her to record with his ensemble Very Very Circus. She appears on Too Much Sugar for a Dime (Axiom, 1993), Song Out of My Trees (Black Saint, 1993), and Carry the Day (Columbia, 1994) after which, with Threadgill's encouragement, she left the group to embark on her own projects.

Harvest of my Tongue
Harvest of my Tongue is a 26-piece musical work, composed by Bildner, based on a poem Recueil des Mots de ma Langue by French artist Michele Blondel. It was first commissioned & performed in 1994 at the Fine Arts Center (Amherst, Massachusetts) retrospective of Blondel's work. Since then it has been performed at The Living Theatre and at the Brecht Forum, both in New York City.

After the Storm
In 2012 Bildner recorded an improvisational album After The Storm (FMR) with British guitarist Philip Gibbs and vibraphonist/pianist Karl Berger. Bildner included readings of two poems by Dylan Thomas in her performance.

Film
A short film A Vida É Estranha ("Life is Strange") that Bildner co-directed with Glauber Rocha premiered at the Curitiba International Film Festival in 2015. The film documents Rocha and Bildner's 1973 trip to Essaouira, a city in Morocco.

Hay Creek is a small trout stream in southeastern Minnesota. It has its headwaters west of Goodhue and empties into the Mississippi River just to the north of Red Wing.  It runs .  Hay Creek was named for the hay meadows near its banks. A railroad once ran along Hay Creek from the claybanks near Goodhue to the pottery and stoneware factories in Red Wing, which also made use of the water from the creek.  The railroad was torn up in 1937, but traces such as trestle pilings remain.

Habitat
Historically, Hay Creek was home to Brook trout and other species, which were depopulated  due to farming practices in the late 18th and 19th centuries.  In the mid-1970s, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources started focusing on restoring Hay Creek.  By 1976, over half of the length of Hay Creek is a Minnesota designated trout stream.  Like the Vermillion River, Hay Creek receives extensive fishing pressure due to its proximity to Minneapolis–St. Paul.  Minnesota Trout Unlimited has joined the restoration efforts along Hay Creek.

Ahu Vinapu is an archaeological site on Rapa Nui (Easter Island) in Eastern Polynesia.

The ceremonial center of Vinapu includes one of the larger ahu on Rapa Nui. The ahu exhibits extraordinary stonemasonry consisting of large, carefully fitted slabs of basalt. The American archaeologist, William Mulloy investigated the site in 1958.

Thor Heyerdahl believed that the accurately fitted stonework showed contact with Peru, especially in comparison to the stone walls of Sacsayhuaman. The stone wall faces towards sunrise at Winter Solstice.

Vinapu is part of the Rapa Nui National Park, which UNESCO has declared a World Heritage Site.

History
It was developed after establishment of British Raj in the Punjab Region as their primary Cemetery in Lahore. The name literally means the white graveyard. 'Gora' is an Urdu word and is used by Pakistanis to refer to light skinned or white people. Therefore, a more accurate translation would be "white people's graveyard." The term is not always necessarily used in a derogatory manner.

Notable interments

Many notable personalities of British era and early Pakistani era are buried there, including
 Cecil Chaudhry
 Geoffrey Langlands

ATP-dependent RNA helicase DDX50 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DDX50 gene.

DEAD box proteins, characterized by the conserved motif Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD), are putative RNA helicases. They are implicated in a number of cellular processes involving alteration of RNA secondary structure such as translation initiation, nuclear and mitochondrial splicing, and ribosome and spliceosome assembly. Based on their distribution patterns, some members of this DEAD box protein family are believed to be involved in embryogenesis, spermatogenesis, and cellular growth and division. This gene encodes a DEAD box enzyme that may be involved in ribosomal RNA synthesis or processing. This gene and DDX21, also called RH-II/GuA, have similar genomic structures and are in tandem orientation on chromosome 10, suggesting that the two genes arose by gene duplication in evolution. This gene has pseudogenes on chromosomes 2, 3 and 4. Alternative splicing of this gene generates multiple transcript variants, but the full length nature of all the other variants but one has not been defined.

Tether containing UBX domain for GLUT4 (TUG) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ASPSCR1 gene.

This gene is a candidate gene for alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS). It has been found that ASPSCR1 can undergo oncogenic rearrangement with transcription factor TFE3 gene, creating an aberrant gene that is a stronger transcriptional activator than TFE3 alone. This fusion oncogene encodes for a chimeric transcription factor, which is responsible for the production of multiple molecules that contribute to ASPS and also to renal cell carcinomas. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but their full length nature has not been determined.

Probable ATP-dependent RNA helicase DHX58 also known as RIG-I-like receptor 3 (RLR-3) or RIG-I-like receptor LGP2 (RLR) is a RIG-I-like receptor dsRNA helicase enzyme that in humans is encoded by the DHX58 gene.  The protein encoded by the gene DHX58 is known as LGP2 (Laboratory of Genetics and Physiology 2).

Structure and function

LGP2 was first identified and characterized in the context of mammary tissue in 2001, but its function has been found to be more relevant to the field of innate antiviral immunity. LGP2 has been found to be essential for producing effective antiviral responses against many viruses that are recognized by RIG-I and MDA5.

Since LGP2 lacks CARD domains, its effect on downstream antiviral signaling is likely due to interaction with dsRNA viral ligand or the other RLRs (RIG-I and MDA5).

LGP2 has been shown to directly interact with RIG-I through its C-terminal repressor domain (RD).  The primary contact sites in this interaction is likely between the RD of LGP2 and the CARD or helicase domain of RIG-I as it is seen with RIG-I self-association, but this has not been confirmed.  The helicase activity of LGP2 has been found to be essential for its positive regulation of RIG-I signaling.  Overexpression of LGP2 is able to inhibit RIG-I-mediated antiviral signaling both in the presence and absence of viral ligands. This inhibition of RIG-I signaling is not dependent upon the ability of LGP2 to bind viral ligands and is therefore not due to ligand competition. Although LGP2 binds to dsRNA with higher affinity, it is dispensable for RIG-I-mediated recognition of synthetic dsRNA ligands.  RIG-I, when overexpressed and in LGP2 knock-down studies, has been shown to induce antiviral response in the absence of viral ligand.

This is a list of United States National Parks by elevation. Most of America's national parks are located in mountainous areas. Even among those located close to the ocean, not all are flat. Those few that are low-lying preserve important natural habitats that could never exist at high altitude. Several national parks protect deep canyons with great vertical relief. There are also three national parks whose primary features are caves, the depths of which are still being explored.

"Basic helix-loop-helix family, member e41", or BHLHE41, is a gene that encodes a basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor repressor protein in various tissues of both humans and mice. It is also known as DEC2, hDEC2, and SHARP1, and was previously known as "basic helix-loop-helix domain containing, class B, 3", or BHLHB3. BHLHE41 is known for its role in the circadian molecular mechanisms that influence sleep quantity as well as its role in immune function and the maturation of T helper type 2 cell lineages associated with humoral immunity.

History

Klaus-Armin Nave's lab identified BHLHE41/SHARP1 and BHLHE40/SHARP2 as a novel subfamily in the basic helix-loop-helix (BHLH) protein family. They differentiated BHLHE41/SHARP1 and BHLHE40/SHARP2 from other BHLH-protein encoding genes since they are not transcribed until the end of embryonic development. The DNA sequence of BHLHE41 was first obtained by Dr. Yukia Kato's lab through a cDNA library search. Particularly, they obtained the sequence of BHLHE40/DEC1 and conducted an expressed sequence tag (EST) search to identify the BHLHE41/DEC2 sequence. BHLHE41/DEC2 and BHLHE40/DEC1 share 97% homology in the BHLH domain. After the identification of the BHLHE41 gene, Dr. Ken-Ichi Honma's lab characterized its role as a regulator in the mammalian circadian clock. The role of BHLHE41 in other pathways is still being fully characterized.

Structure

BHLHE41 is a member of the DEC subfamily within the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) proteins gene family. BHLHE41 was mapped to human chromosome 12: 26,120,026-26-125-127 reverse strand and has a total length of 5,101 base pairs. The gene is also mapped to 6 G2-G3 on the mouse chromosome, and 4q43 distal-q4 on the rat chromosome respectively. BHLHE41 has 3 known splice variants. BHLHE41-002 and BHLHE41-003 are retained introns and do not code for a protein. BHLHE41-001 contains 5 coding exons, has a transcript length of 3,837 base pairs, and encodes the 482 amino acid BHLHE41 protein. BHLHE40 is the paralogue of BHLHE41. BHLHE41 currently has 165 known orthologs.

The BHLHE41 protein has a myc-type, basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain and an orange domain. The orange domain is a 30 residue sequence located on the carboxy-terminal end relative to the BHLH domain of the protein whose function is still unclear. The basic helix-loop-helix domain allows members of the protein family to dimerize with each other to affect gene transcription through binding to specific DNA sequences. BHLHE41 protein also has alanine and glycine-rich regions in the C-terminal, and lacks the WRPW motif for interaction with the corepressor Groucho.

BHLHE41 recruits the  histone methyltransferase G9a and histone deacetylases HDAC1 and Sirt1 to mediate chromatin modifications that repress target gene expression.

Function

Circadian
BHLHE41 is expressed in the suprachiasmatic nucleus with levels peaking during subjective day. The gene encodes for a transcription factor that belongs to the Hairy/Enhancer of Split (Hes) subfamily of basic helix-loop-helix factor genes which encode transcriptional repressors that function as downstream targets to regulate cell fate during tissue development. BHLHE41 acts as a transcriptional repressor and as a regulator of the Circadian clock. In the clock, the transcriptional factors Clock and Bmal form a heterodimer. This heterodimer binds to the E-Box promoter element, thereby promoting transcription of downstream genes such as Per and BHLHe41. After transcription and translation, the protein product of BHLHE41 (DEC2) reenters the nucleus and competes with Clock-Bmal1 heterodimer for E-Box element binding (through competitive inhibition); this acts as a suppressor for per gene transcription.

Non-circadian
BHLHE41 has also been implicated in multiple other pathways. Deregulation of BHLHE41 transcription levels has been characterized as a marker in the progression of several cancers. Low levels of BHLHE41 transcript has been associated with tumor growth suggesting that BHLHE41 suppresses tumor proliferation; however, no definite mechanism of action has been discovered. Dec2 has also been hypothesized to be involved in the regulation of immune responses. Further research on characterizing these pathways and BHLHE41's specific role is still being conducted.

In mice lacking SHARP1/BHLHE41 and SHARP2, IGF-2 is elevated and leads to enhanced memory consolidation.

Mutations

There is a known amino acid point mutation of DEC2 that affects the regulation of the biological processes of sleep timing and duration in humans. Although the exact mechanisms of action are still unknown, previous studies suggest that the mutation poses similar effects in both humans and mice.

DEC2-P385R

A point mutation substituting C to G in DEC2/BHLHE41 DNA sequence results in the substitution of proline at position 385 with arginine.  The proline at position 385 (384 according to the talk page) of BHLHE41 is located close to the C-terminal histone deacetylase-interacting region of BHLHE41, which is a highly conserved region within the proline-rich domain. This mutation mitigates BHLHe41's transcriptional inhibitory function. Mice with this mutation sleep less. They get less of both REM and non-REM sleep and recover more easily from sleep deprivation. These effects are not seen in BHLHE41 knockout mice. As such, scholars  believe the Dec2-P385R mutation is a dominant negative mutation.

Ying-Hui Fu's lab found this mutation in familial natural short sleepers (FNSS). FNSS naturally sleep less, about 6-6.5 hours a night. It is not clear how this works. It is possible BHLHE41 makes sleep shorter through pathways independent of those which regulate the molecular core clock, such as the pathway involving the PER2 gene. Both BHLHE41 and PER2 also affect immune function, maybe because tuning the immune system could be one of the reasons we sleep at all.

BHLHE41 knockout
BHLHE41 knockout mice, also known as BHLHE41 -/- or BHLHE41 null, showed no change in their free-running period with respect to activity. After being exposed to an in vivo model of allergic asthma, BHLHE41 knockout mice show decreased TH2 cytokine production, defective TH2 responses after being repeatedly stimulated with OVA peptide, and reduced alveolar infiltrate. BHLHE41 knockout mice had increased post-natal regeneration of muscle after injury. However, these mice showed no deficits in embryonic muscle repair.

Clinical significance

Immune system
BHLHE41 has been shown to be regulator of T-cell activation. BHLHE41 upregulates CD25 expression through a Stat6-dependent mechanism, which enhances the IL-2 receptor-mediated signal pathway, which promotes TH2 differentiation. Gata3 enhances T helper cell 2 (Th2) differentiation signals by regulating BHLHE41 expression through an autoregulatory loop.

Hypoxia
Hypoxia stimulates hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) to be produced, which initiates the hypoxic response. HIF-1α induces the transcription of BHLHE41 and BHLHE40. This is believed to repress cell proliferation, which is not conducive to a hypoxic environment. BHLHE41 can also block a hypoxic response by presenting HIF-1α to a proteasome complex, which induces HIF-1α's degradation.

Muscle

BHLHE41 has been shown to represses myogenic differentiation by inhibiting MyoD activity through multiple mechanisms. When BHLHE41 dimerizes with MyoD and E47, it prevents the formation of MyoD-E47 heterodimers, which are functional. When BHLHE41 is sumoylated at K240 and K255, it recruits the histone methyltransferase G9a. G9a then catalyzes repressive histone 3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) at promoter sites of target genes of MyoD. G9a also methylates MyoD, which inhibits MyoD's transcriptional activity.

BHLHE41 and BHLHE40 are transcriptional targets of SREBP-1 (also known as ADD-1) isoforms SREBP-1a and SREBP-1c. After being induced by SREBP-1, BHLHE41 and BHLHE40 have been shown to repress myogenesis by blocking MYOD1 transcription. BHLHE40 and BHLHE41 are also known to alter the expression of several contractile proteins and mitochondrial proteins in skeletal muscle. BHLHE41 and BHLHE40 also repress SREBP-1. This forms a negative feedback loop between SREBP-1, BHLHE40, and BHLHE41 in muscles that runs on a 24-hour circadian cycle, which has a 12-hour offset between SREBP-1 and BHLHE40/BHLHE41. In addition, BHLHE41 is  known to inhibit inflammation and adipogenic differentiation in muscles.

Sarcoma, oral cancer, liver cancer, and colon cancer

BHLHE41 has been shown to suppress the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in sarcoma cells and oral cancer cells. BHLHE41 also suppresses cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) in hepatocellular carcinoma cells. While BHLHE40 induces apoptosis, senescence, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in tumor cells, BHLHE41 shows a circadian expression and inhibits EMT, apoptosis, and metastasis in sarcoma cells and hepatocellular carcinoma cells. It has been shown that the normal tissue adjacent to colon carcinomas show high levels of BHLHE41 expression. Research is currently examining whether BHLHE40 and BHLHE41 can be used as target genes for chemotherapy.

Breast cancer

BHLHE41 is thought to be a critical regulator of the metastasis of triple-negative-breast cancer (TNBC). Regulated by the p63 metastasis suppressor, BHLHE41 inhibits TNBC through the inhibition of HIF-1α and hypoxia-inducible factor 2α (HIF-2α). Studies have shown that BHLHE41 is both required and sufficient to limit the expression of HIF-target genes, by mechanistically binding to HIFs and promoting proteasomal degradation. Breast cancer tumors that show high expression of BHLHE41 and CyclinG2 are believed to have a lower metastatic risk.

39S ribosomal protein L24, mitochondrial is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MRPL24 gene.

Mammalian mitochondrial ribosomal proteins are encoded by nuclear genes and help in protein synthesis within the mitochondrion. Mitochondrial ribosomes (mitoribosomes) consist of a small 28S subunit and a large 39S subunit. They have an estimated 75% protein to rRNA composition compared to prokaryotic ribosomes, where this ratio is reversed. Another difference between mammalian mitoribosomes and prokaryotic ribosomes is that the latter contain a 5S rRNA. Among different species, the proteins comprising the mitoribosome differ greatly in sequence, and sometimes in biochemical properties, which prevents easy recognition by sequence homology. This gene encodes a 39S subunit protein which is more than twice the size of its Escherichia coli counterpart (EcoL24). Sequence analysis identified two transcript variants that encode the same protein.

Terminal uridylyltransferase 7 (TUT7), also known as "zinc finger, CCHC domain containing 6", is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ZCCHC6 gene located on chromosome 9. The ZCCHC6 protein mediates the terminal uridylation of RNA transcripts with short poly-A tails and is involved in mRNA and microRNA degradation

Structure

The ZCCHC6 gene contains 33 exons with at least six known isoforms due to alternative splicing. The ZCCHC6 gene encodes for a protein that is 171 kDa in molecular weight and is localized to the cytoplasm.

Function
It catalyzes the following reaction, requiring Mg2+ and Mn2+ as co-factors.

UTP + RNA(n) = diphosphate + RNA(n+1)

Uridylation catalyzed by ZCCHC6 takes place readily on deadenylated mRNAs inside the cells. Purified ZZHC6 selectively recognizes and uridylates RNA molecules possessing short poly(A) tails (less than 25 nucleotides) in vitro.  In cells depleted of ZCCHC6, the majority of mRNAs lose the signature oligo(U) tails that are characteristic of ZCCHC6 reactivity, and the half-life of mRNA molecules are accordingly prolonged.

In addition to mRNA degradation, uridylation is also thought to function in pre-microRNA maturation, with some group II pre-microRNA requiring 3' mono-uridylation for Dicer processing. ZCCHC6 is thought to work in redundancy with ZCCHC11 to mediate the biogenesis of the let-7 microRNA through uridylation.

Genetic Inactivation of ZCCHC6 Suppresses Interleukin-6 Expression and Reduces the Severity of Experimental Osteoarthritis in Mice.

Galactose-3-O-sulfotransferase 4 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GAL3ST4 gene.

This gene encodes a member of the galactose-3-O-sulfotransferase protein family. The product of this gene catalyzes sulfonation by transferring a sulfate to the C-3' position of galactose residues in O-linked glycoproteins. This enzyme is highly specific for core 1 structures, with asialofetuin, Gal-beta-1,3-GalNAc and Gal-beta-1,3 (GlcNAc-beta-1,6)GalNAc being good substrates.

Mutations

Pectus Excavatum, the most common deformity of the chest wall, is believed to have a genetic component. The condition is believed to be passed either dominantly or recessively by a gene of unknown identity. A study performed in 2012 by Wu et al. states that pectus excavatum displays dominant inheritance via a mutation in GAL3ST4. The study proposes mutation g.chr7: 99764688G>A affects the first exon of GAL3ST4 resulting in tryptophan replacing arginine at residue 11 of the encoded protein. This mutation is highly likely to disrupt the normal function of the encoded protein. GAL3ST4 is typically responsible for catalyzing “the C-3 sulfation of galactoses in O-linked glycoproteins”. Mutation of this gene results in alterations of the typical sulfation pattern of glycan chains, which will alter the physiologic functions of various glycoproteins. For normal development of cartilage and bone to occur, sulfation of proteoglycans must occur. Mutations of proteins responsible for other aspects of sulfation and sulfatases have been linked to several mutations affecting the skeleton. Through the evaluation of several participants with pectus excavatum, Wu et al. determined mutation of GAL3ST4 is most likely responsible for the dominant inheritance pattern of pectus excavatum through alterations of the encoded proteins.

HMS Mordaunt was a 46-gun ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched at Deptford in 1681 and in active service during the Nine Years' War with France. After extensive service in both European and Caribbean waters, Mordaunt foundered off the coast of Cuba on 21 November 1693.

Construction
Plans for the vessel's construction were developed in the late 1670s by a private syndicate headed by Charles Mordaunt, 3rd Earl of Peterborough, with the publicised intention that she be used solely as a merchantman. A contract for her construction was issued in 1680 to William Castle, a commercial shipwright at Deptford, initially on behalf of the syndicate and then solely in the name of Charles Mordaunt. Castle set to work immediately, and construction proceeded apace. As built, the new ship was  long with a  keel, a beam of , and a hold depth of . She was a large vessel, measuring 567  tons burthen. Castle included a total of 56 gun ports in Mordaunts design but several were too constrained by internal fittings to house a gun, and in practice the vessel was not capable of carrying more than 48 cannons.

William Castle died in 1681 and construction was completed by his son, William Castle the Younger.

The vessel's stern featured a carved crest displaying the Mordaunt family coat of arms: a chevron beneath three stars.

Civilian career
Even with 48 guns, Mordaunt would be very heavily armed for a merchant craft, and there were public rumours that she was actually intended as a private warship. In early 1681 Spain's Ambassador to England wrote to Admiralty expressing his fear that the vessel would be sold to the Elector of Brandenburg, who was assembling a fleet to prey on Spanish shipping. Admiralty responded by issuing a warrant on 30 June 1681 for the seizing of the vessel, accompanied by a request that Mordaunt attend the Admiralty Court to explain his intentions in having her constructed. In advance of the hearing, Admiralty itself advised the court that Mordaunt was "built frigate-fashion and is as good a ship as His Majesty's ship [the 48-gun] ." Charles Mordaunt appeared before the court in July to attest that the vessel was indeed a merchantman, and that the heavy armament was simply to enable her to sail without convoy protection. The Court resolved to return the vessel to Mordaunt but obliged him to guarantee that she would not be used for military purposes.

The vessel was completed in 1681, and a crew of 200 were hired and brought aboard. Problems then arose with their pay, with the ship's company lodging a civil action for non-payment of wages in 1682. Admiralty again seized the vessel while this claim was being heard, but simultaneously entered negotiations for her purchase. The sale was completed on 7 October 1682 with the vessel entering Navy service as HMS Mordaunt. Her crew were offered a transfer into naval service to accompany their ship, and most agreed; the civil claim was settled in their favour in May 1683 but the outstanding wages were never subsequently paid.

Naval career

The newly purchased vessel was sailed to Deptford Dockyard in late 1682, for fitting out as a Royal Navy ship of the line. She remained at Deptford throughout 1683, finally being commissioned into active service on 20 May 1684 under the command of Captain Henry Killigrew. The War of the Reunions had broken out in Europe, but Britain was at least temporarily at peace and Mordaunt was sent to cruise along the coastline of West Africa as protection for Britain's regional British merchant and slave-trading interests. She returned to England in 1685, where she remained for the next two years. Killigrew left the vessel in 1687, with command transferring to Captain John Ashby.

Her first listed commander is Captain Henry Killigrew who took her off the west coast of Africa. In 1685 she returned to Britain and was involved in the suppression of the Argyll Uprising later that year in which she must have captured the "Sophia" as her crew were awarded a share of the £5000 prize paid by the English government in August 1685.

On 4 October 1689 near the Scilly Isles, under Captain John Tyrrell, together with HMS Foresight and HMS Lively Prize, she was involved in an unwise attack on 12 French men-of-war, in which all British ships were damaged and the Lively Prize was captured.

In April 1690 the Mordaunt crossed the Atlantic and sailed to the West Indies. In January 1692 she joined HMS Norwich and HMS Diamond in Barbados under overall command of Commodore Ralph Wrenn. The ships were sent to search for the French squadron somewhere around Barbados. Unsuccessful they returned to Carlisle Bay on 5 February and on 17 February sailed to Jamaica.

On 22 February 1692 now under Captain Henry Boteler, she was involved in a battle with Norwich and Diamond again but additionally joined by HMS Mary and HMS Antelope, in which they engaged eighteen French ships including Le Vermandois, Le Vaillant and La Legere, off the island of Desirade. Mordaunt was damaged in the attack and Ralph Wrenn (on Norwich) wounded, dying a few days later.

In June 1692 she went to Jamaica where HMS Swan had been wrecked so her crew were split between Mordaunt and HMS Guernsey. In April 1693 she unsuccessfully pursued French privateers. Later in the same month she returned from Porto Bello with 100,000 pieces of eight from the Assiento.

In May 1693 the Council of Jamaica ordered the careening of the Mordaunt. At this stage she was under command of Captain Francis Maynard and a debate began as to whether or not she be allowed to return to England. She was obliged to stay in Jamaica and in July was sent to harass the French around Hispaniola, returning to Jamaica in October.

On her final mission she was escorting a convoy when she was struck by a storm off the coast of Cuba. She sank with all hands (around 230 men) including Captain Maynard on 21 November 1693.

F-box only protein 31 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FBXO31 gene.

Function

Members of the F-box protein family, such as FBXO31, are characterized by an approximately 40-amino acid F-box motif. SCF complexes, formed by SKP1 (MIM 601434), cullin (see CUL1; MIM 603134), and F-box proteins, act as protein-ubiquitin ligases. F-box proteins interact with SKP1 through the F box, and they interact with ubiquitination targets through other protein interaction domains.

F-box protein FBXO31 directs degradation of MDM2 to facilitate p53-mediated growth arrest following genotoxic stress. the F-box protein FBXO31, a candidate tumor suppressor encoded in 16q24.3 for which there is loss of heterozygosity in various solid tumors, is responsible for promoting MDM2 degradation. Following genotoxic stress, FBXO31 is phosphorylated by the DNA damage serine/threonine kinase ATM, resulting in increased levels of FBXO31. FBXO31 then interacts with and directs the degradation of MDM2, which is dependent on phosphorylation of MDM2 by ATM. FBXO31-mediated loss of MDM2 leads to elevated levels of p53, resulting in growth arrest. In cells depleted of FBXO31, MDM2 is not degraded and p53 levels do not increase following genotoxic stress. Thus, FBXO31 is essential for the classic robust increase in p53 levels following DNA damage.

ARA Bouchard (formerly L'Adroit) is a patrol vessel designed by the French company DCNS for maritime protection missions. She was originally part of the Gowind family of corvettes and patrol vessels but the less military members of the family like Bouchard have been moved into the Kership consortium. The design was self-funded by DCNS without an initial customer, and was initially leased to the French Navy as L'Adroit before being sold to the Argentine Navy in November 2018.  The vessel was commissioned as ARA Bouchard in December 2019.

Design
Bouchard has a 360° panoramic bridge and an integrated mast. The minimal superstructure of the ship leaves a substantial space available for air operations (helicopters, UAVs) and for launch and recovery of surface assets (RHIBs or USVs). Bouchards missions are managed by a combat system, which supplies essential detailed information on the ship’s environment, acquired by various detectors, deployed sensors and other ships integrated into the surveillance network. The mission system can also include a maritime surveillance system capable of detecting suspicious course profiles automatically.

The vessel is capable of a variety of missions usually associated with offshore patrol of economic zones.

History
Placed at the disposal of the French Navy by DCNS for a period of three years, L'Adroit sailed from her home base on France's Mediterranean coast in May 2012 to conduct her first fishery policing and maritime security mission, including deployment for Operation Thon Rouge, monitoring fishing vessels with red tuna quotas for 2012.

Argentine service
L'Adroit was sold to the Argentine Navy in November 2018, and was commissioned as ARA Bouchard in December 2019. She is home based at Mar del Plata naval base.

The track was released as the second single from the album on January 14, 2008, peaking at number 19 on the US Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart. An alternate version of the track featuring additional vocals by Lacuna Coil singer Cristina Scabbia was also later made available as a digital download.

Promotion and release
"Watch Over You" was released as the second single from Blackbird on January 14, 2008. The song was also featured in a number of episodes of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, which led to it becoming known as an "unofficial anthem" for the show. It is usually played in a "stripped down" acoustic format, often by lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Myles Kennedy alone.

In April 2008, an alternate version of "Watch Over You" featuring additional vocals by Lacuna Coil singer Cristina Scabbia was released as a single. Speaking about the collaboration, Scabbia claimed that she was "honoured and grateful for the awesome experience".

Music video
The music video for "Watch Over You" was directed by John Cummings. The video contains footage from the second season of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, including scenes in which former Guns N' Roses drummer Steven Adler is featured. It shows Myles singing inside the warehouse. At the end of the video, he is seen outside of the warehouse.

Reception

Commercial
"Watch Over You" entered the US Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs chart at number 30 for the week of February 2, 2008. It peaked at number 19 four weeks later, spending a total of 13 weeks on the chart. It was also the first single by the band to register on the Adult Pop Songs chart, on which it spent three weeks at number 40 in early 2009.

Critical
Tom Shackleford of AXS named "Watch Over You" as one of Kennedy's six best vocal performances, claiming that "The song's cooler, autumn-like feel really showcases Kennedy's singing with a beautiful, held-out chorus line before picking up and turning things up a notch as the song reaches its climax".

Rosendo Hernández González (11 March 1922 – 3 August 2006) was a Spanish football forward and manager.

Club career
Born in Santa Cruz de La Palma, Province of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Hernández started playing football with local Canary Islands clubs SD Tenisca and CD Mensajero. At the end of the Spanish Civil War he joined Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa, followed by a move to Atlético Madrid which he never represented officially.

From 1950 to 1952, Hernández competed almost exclusively in La Liga (the exception being the 1950–51 season in Segunda División), representing RCD Español and Real Zaragoza and amassing totals of 143 games and 62 goals. After retiring in Aragon with SD Escoriaza he went into management, working in the top flight with Córdoba CF, Elche CF, Real Betis – he split the 1964–65 campaign between the two clubs, being in charge for only ten matches combined – and Las Palmas; he died at the age of 84 in his hometown.

International career
Hernández gained four caps for the Spain national team, during one year and four months. He was selected to the squad that competed at the 1950 FIFA World Cup, appearing in the tournament against the United States (3–1 win, first group stage) and Sweden (1–3 loss, second group phase).

Sperm flagellar protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPEF2 gene.

SPEF2 plays an important role in spermatogenesis and flagellar assembly. SPEF2 is expressed in all ciliated cells and is required for cilia function.  Sperm contain cilia, and a mutation in the SPEF2 gene can cause male infertility due to immobile sperm. In a pig animal model, a SPEF2 mutation affects the sperm tail development. And a loss of function mutation in SPEF2 in mice causes the big giant head phenotype. SPEF2 mRNA and protein products are localized in germ and sertoli cells.  Within these cells, SPEF2 is localized in the golgi complex, manchette, basal body and mid piece of the sperm tail.  SPEF2 has been shown to interact with the intracellular transport protein IFT20 in the testis.
