The Beach Gallery () and Beach Lodge () are two exhibit buildings at the Shelburne Museum in Shelburne, Vermont, United States. They are both made from logs and are designed to resemble an Adirondack hunting camp. The Beach Lodge exhibits a large selection of hunting trophies (taxidermy), while the Beach Gallery exhibits art depicting the North American wilderness; this includes work by Carl Rungius (a hunting companion of Theodore Roosevelt), Arthur Fitzwilliam Tait, and Sydney Laurence.

History
In 1960, the Shelburne Museum commissioned the construction of the Beach Lodge and the Beach Gallery, named for William and Marie Beach, who were friends and hunting companions of Electra Havemeyer Webb, as well as Shelburne Museum patrons. Using timber forested at the Webb family's Adirondack "great camp", Nehasane, the museum designed the Lodge and the Gallery to resemble an Adirondack hunting camp. To create an environment distinctly different from the rest of the grounds, the museum excavated a shallow basin in which to build the two structures, surrounded the basin with Vermont sandstone, and planted spruce, hemlock, and cedar trees so that the area would resemble an Adirondack forest.

In 2007 the museum restored both the Beach Lodge and Gallery. The Lodge, whose original timber structure and interior remained in good condition, received basic renovations, while the Gallery, which had drastically deteriorated over the years, had to be razed. The museum constructed a new cabin using logs from the timber left standing after a forest fire in Montana on the Gallery's original floor plan.

Gábor Ocskay, Jr. (; 11 September 1975 – 24 March 2009) was a Hungarian ice hockey player. As the center of the first line, he played a huge part in his national team's promotion to the 2009 World Championship. He died of a heart attack weeks before the start of the 2009 Championships. Ocskay was posthumously awarded the Torriani Award by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) in 2016, and was inducted into the IIHF Hall of Fame.

Domestic career

Ocskay was born in Budapest, but spent his childhood in Székesfehérvár, Fejér county and during his entire career he played for Alba Volán Székesfehérvár. Officially he has been a member of the club since 1983 and that time he has started to develop a famed on-ice relationship with right winger Krisztián Palkovics. Among hockey fans in Hungary the pair was just known as "The Twins".

Started to play regularly in the Hungarian First Division in the 1993-94 season and won the championship nine times, the last seven being consecutive. After long-time captain, Balázs Kangyal has left the team, he became his successor, but due to some difficulties at the end of the 2008-09 EBEL regular season, he decided to give up this position. However, he has been the real spiritual leader of the team for a long time.

International play

He won 187 caps for the Hungarian national team and since 1993 he has played in every single World Championship for them. With him the team won the Pool C (now Division II) tournament in 1998 and 2000, and by winning the 2008 Division I tournament in Sapporo, Japan, it gained promotion to the highest level of the World Championship for the first time since 1939.

Death
In 2004, he was diagnosed with a heart disease and sidelined for four months, but later has received a medical permission to continue his career. He died of a heart attack in Budapest late on 24 March 2009, aged 33, three days after helping his side win its tenth Hungarian title.

After the shocking news of his death, both his club and the Hungarian Federation has decided to retire his famous #19 jersey from their teams. On the day of his funeral, the ice hall of Székesfehérvár has been named after him. Ice hockey fans around the country have started to raise money to build a statue for him in front of the entrance of the ice hall.

The Jubilee is a Norton motorcycle made from 1958 to 1966. Named to commemorate Norton's Diamond Jubilee, the 249 cc Jubilee was a break with Norton tradition designed in response to UK legislation introduced in 1960 limiting learner riders to motorcycles of under 250 cc. It had the smallest engine ever made by Norton, and was the first Norton with a unit construction engine and gearbox.

Development
Launched in 1958 the Norton Jubilee was named in celebration of Norton Motorcycles' Diamond Jubilee of 60 years of motorcycle manufacture. The engine was a new design by Bert Hopwood with main and big-end bearings identical to those used on Hopwood's Norton Dominator engine ten years before. Having the smallest Norton engine, the Jubilee was also the first Norton with a unit construction engine and gearbox. The engine dimensions of 60mm x 44mm gave it a short stroke and produced only  at 7,750 rpm. It required high revs to reach usable speeds, and had a maximum speed of .

Designed around an unusual crank in which the central flywheel had a narrow section but large diameter, the new engine gained a reputation for oil leaks and unreliability. After Hopwood changed the crankshaft material from cast to nodular iron and improved the gearbox layshaft bush, the Jubilee proved more reliable and sales slowly increased.

The new engine was in an old frame and the gearbox from older motorcycles in the AMC Group's range. The front frame tube was a steel pressing and the lightweight forks, brakes and wheels were Francis-Barnett parts. The rear enclosure came from sister company Clarendon Pressings. The gearbox was the same as in the AMC 2 stroke Piatti engine and the AJS and Matchless lightweight motorcycles.

Originally sold as a 'De Luxe' model with a fully enclosed rear end, the Standard model arrived in 1961, continuing in production until 1966. An estimated 5,000 Jubilees were built at Norton's Bracebridge Street works before production was transferred to the AMC Woolwich factory in 1963.

La Louve is a private French contemporary garden, open to the public, in the town of Bonnieux in the Vaucluse department of France.  It was created beginning in 1986 by Nicole de Vésian, textile designer for the Paris fashion house of Hermès. It is classified by the French Ministry of Culture as one of the Remarkable Gardens of France.

Description
The gardens are laid out on a series of terraces, and are designed to be in harmony with the surrounding natural landscape. They incorporate local rocks and stones, including stone balls and smooth  stones from the Durance River, trees and bushes trimmed into geometric shapes, and wooden benches placed for meditation and contemplation. The garden includes an Arbutus tree shaped by artist Marc Nucera;  fig, cherry, apricot and apple trees;  roses and iris;  and native fragrant plants of the region, including lavender, rosemary, and santolina.

History
The site was purchased by Nicole de Vésian when she retired from Hermès and devoted her time to gardening. Over the course of ten years, she transformed a village house with land exposed to the south into a complex design  of stone and greenery.   As she approached the age of eighty, she sold the garden in 1996 to art collector Judith Pillsbury and began a new garden above the village.  Judith Pillsbury preserved the original design and maintained the garden until 2014 when it was bought by its present owner Mme Sylvie Verger-Lanel.

Henry Perry (or Henry Parry) (1560/61–1617) was a Welsh Anglican priest and linguistic scholar.

Life
Perry was born in Flintshire, Wales, and was a descendant of Llywelyn ap Gruffudd (the last Welsh Prince of Wales).  He was educated at the University of Oxford, initially as a member of Balliol College before moving to Gloucester Hall (which would later become Worcester College) to take his BA degree then Jesus College, Oxford for his MA and BTh degrees.  In between obtaining his MA (1583) and his BTh (1597), he travelled overseas and got married, before returning to north Wales as the chaplain to Sir Richard Bulkeley, a prominent landowner from near Beaumaris, Anglesey.  He then obtained various parish positions on Anglesey, in Rhoscolyn, Trefdraeth and Llanfachraeth, also becoming a canon and prebendary of Bangor Cathedral.  His date of death is unknown, but was before 30 December 1617 when his prebendary successor was appointed.  One of his grandchildren was Henry Maurice, who became Lady Margaret Professor of Divinity at Oxford.

In addition to his parish work, Perry was a skilled linguist; he was highly regarded by the lexicographer John Davies.  He was said by Davies to have worked on the compilation of a Welsh language dictionary, although his sole publication was a book on rhetoric  ("The elucidator of eloquence", 1595).  It was the first book of its kind in Welsh, and drew upon the works of contemporary writers in English.  A further edition of the work was published in 1807 and the original edition, with critical assessment of Perry's scholarship, was reprinted in 1930.

Guilandina bonduc, commonly known as grey nicker, nicker bean, fever nut or knicker nut, is a species of flowering plant in the senna tribe, Caesalpinieae, that has a pantropical distribution. It is a liana that reaches a length of  or more and scrambles over other vegetation.  The stems are covered in curved spines. Its  grey seeds, known as nickernuts, are buoyant and durable enough to be dispersed by ocean currents.

Description
Guilandina bonduc grows as a climber, up to  long or as a large sprawling shrub or small shrubby tree. The stems are irregularly covered with curved prickles. The leaves are large and bi-pinnate, up to  long with scattered prickles on the rachises and blades. There are four to eleven pairs of pinnae,  long with five to ten pairs of pinnules. The pinnules are  long, elliptic, oblong or ovate with acute tips and entire margins. The inflorescence is an axillary raceme, often branched, covered with short hairs and up to  long. The jointed pedicels are up to  long. The sepals are shorter than the petals which are around  long; the petals are yellow, sometimes with a spot of orange near the base of the keel. The unisexual flowers are followed by large, flattish, spiny green pods which later turn brown, some , containing one or usually two, glossy, rounded, grey seeds.

Distribution and habitat
Guilandina bonduc has a pantropical distribution. It typically grows near the coast, in scrub, on sand dunes and on the upper shore. It also occurs inland, in lowland secondary forest and disturbed areas near villages; this may be the result of the seed being accidentally dropped after being transported for medical purposes or for use as counters in board games. The seeds are buoyant and retain their viability in both fresh and sea water, enabling them to disperse to new coastal locations. When washed up on the shore, they are sometimes known as sea pearls.

Uses
Nodules on the plant's roots contain symbiotic bacteria that fixes nitrogen. This is used as a nutrient by the vine and also benefits other plants growing in close proximity.

This plant has been used in traditional medicine. The seeds have tonic and antipyretic properties and the bark and leaves have been used to lower fevers. An oil extracted from the seeds has been used in cosmetics and for treating discharges from the ear.

Tongans make the hard seeds (talatala ‘amoa) into leis or play with them like marbles; its spiky leaves and stems are used in fruit bat snares.

The Santa Rosa–Swift Creek culture was characterized by the appearance of elaborate ceremonial complexes, increasing social and political complexity, mound burial, permanent settlements, population growth, and an  increasing reliance on cultigens. "Santa Rosa" is associated with the archeological site Santa Rosa Island, Santa Rosa County, Florida. "Swift Creek" is associated with the archeological site near Swift Creek, Bibb County, Georgia.

The Early Woodland Deptford culture evolved in place to become the Santa Rosa–Swift Creek culture. Burial mounds have yielded trade items which include copper panpipes, ear ornaments, stone plummets, and stone gorgets. These show this area's incorporation within the Hopewellian Interaction Sphere by about AD 100.

The Santa Rosa–Swift Creek culture extended over the western half of the Florida panhandle and immediately adjacent parts of Alabama. Sites have been found primarily around estuaries from St. Andrews Bay to Pensacola Bay. It is defined by a mixture of Swift Creek and Santa Rosa pottery types in village middens (Santa Rosa pottery is a variant of Marksville pottery).

Four Santa Rosa–Swift Creek sites have been radiocarbon dated. Two sites in the Choctawhatchee Bay area have been dated to the period 150 to 450, while two sites in the Pensacola Bay area have been dated to the period 350 to 650. The later dates for the Santa Rosa–Swift Creek culture in the Pensacola Bay area seem to indicate a later adoption of the Santa Rosa–Swift Creek culture, as late Deptford ceramics have been dated to 260 in the Pensacola Bay area, but only to 150 in the Choctawhatchee Bay area. Santa Rosa ceramics appeared in both the Choctawhatchee Bay and Pensacola Bay areas by about 50 BCE.

The Gumelniţa–Kodžadermen-Karanovo VI complex was a Chalcolithic cultural complex of the fifth millennium BC located in the eastern Balkans, comprising the Gumelnița, Kodžadermen and Karanovo cultures. It is also aggregated with the Varna culture. It formed part of the broader cultural complex known as Old Europe. Gumelniţa–Kodžadermen-Karanovo VI evolved out of the earlier Boian culture and phase V of the Karanovo culture. From c. 4000 BC Gumelniţa–Kodžadermen-Karanovo VI was replaced by the Cernavodă culture.

Danube script
During the Middle Copper Age, the Danube script appears in three horizons: The Gumelniţa–Kodžadermen-Karanovo VI cultural complex (mainly in Bulgaria, but also in Romania), the Cucuteni A3-A4–Trypillya B (in Ukraine), and Coțofeni I (in Serbia). The first, rates 68.6% of the frequencies; the second, rates 24.2%; and the third, rates 7.6%.

This season marks the addition of four new teams, with Lajong SSC, Pune FC, Salgaocar Sports Club and Viva Kerala are confirmed to participate in the I-League. With the inception of these four clubs, many club transfers have been undergone within India, and around the world. The length of the regular season will be longer than in previous years, with 26 rounds rather than 22.

The season kicked off on 1 October 2009 with Mahindra United hosting defending champions Churchill Brothers in Mumbai.

Rule changes
India became the latest member association to adopt AFC's 3+1 rule which will allow clubs to recruit one player of Asian origin in addition to their regular quota of three foreigners.

The All India Football Federation (AIFF) executive committee decided to embrace the new AFC rule which encourages the mobility of talented Asian players and provides a fillip to the regional game.

AFC Campaign
Two of the I-League teams were playing in the 2010 AFC Cup. This had caused some delays in scheduling. East Bengal lost all its round robin matches and was out of the tournament, but Churchill Brothers were at Knockout stage.

The Nokia N86 8MP is a high-end smartphone with emphasis on the camera. It was announced on 17 February 2009 and released in May 2009 as part of the Nseries. It runs on Symbian OS 9.3 (S60 3rd Edition FP2) and shares similar design features with the N97. Its name references the camera's megapixel count.

Camera
One of its main selling points is its Carl Zeiss photography features. It was Nokia's first camera phone to have an 8 megapixel sensor (although late compared to other manufacturers), and features both multiple aperture settings and a mechanical shutter (uncommon features by the standards of camera phones), and a Carl Zeiss lens with a wide angle of view (28 mm equivalent). It also has auto focus and a dual LED flash (3rd generation dual-LEDs), and an AF assist light. Video capture resolution is 640 × 480 pixels (VGA) at 30 frames per second.

The variable aperture adjusts between the three levels of 2.4, 3.2 and 4.8, depending on lighting conditions.

Design
The N86 utilises the dual-sliding form factor of the Nokia N95 and N85, whilst adding a toughened glass front cover and metal detailing and keypad, providing a premium look and feel. It has a 2.6-inch AMOLED display, a fast 434 MHz processor, and 8GB of internal memory. The Nokia N86 also features the same kickstand as the N85, and so it is possible to use as a small standalone screen, as well as configuring the opening of the stand to launch applications such as the video player. It also supports the N-Gage gaming platform. The N86 8MP is regarded as the spiritual successor of the N95 8GB due to its feature set in the same sliding form factor, and the commercial failure of the N96. Some regard it a successor of the N82 due to its camera.

Features
The N86 8MP is a 3.5G or 3.75G(3GPP)device with dual-band HSDPA support, quad-band GSM and Wi-Fi. It has an A-GPS receiver, which links into location-based services via Nokia Maps, and photographs can be automatically geo-tagged. There is also a built-in digital compass, an FM radio, and there is also an FM transmitter. It is rated to give 6 hours talktime, 25 hours music playback and 11 days on standby on a full charge.

Digital TV
With optional DVB-H Nokia Mobile TV Receiver SU-33W it is possible to watch television on the screen of the phone.

Free navigation
Ovi Maps 3.03, with free navigation, was released on 17 March 2010 for the Nokia N86. The new version was available via the SW Update application and has a file size of 8.24 MB. The N86, E72, E55, E52, 6730, 6710 (S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 2) and all of Nokia's Symbian^1 (S60 5th Edition) devices will get to experience beta-testing and free navigation.

Firmware updates

6 July 2009
The Nokia N86 8MP received a big firmware upgrade, to v11.043. That brought official Ovi Store compatibility (with Ovi web site shortcut and option to download the dedicated client), camera tweaks and the usual early firmware bug fixes and improvements.

30 September 2009
The Nokia N86 8MP received its v20 firmware upgrade a full week or so ahead of schedule. It was 8 MB large for an Over The Air (OTA) update.

Some significant changes were: Improved still image and video quality and Close-up focus, Face detection (indicated by a yellow square) and Red-eye removal were added, New focus point indication (shows where in the scene the camera is focusing).

11 January 2010
The Nokia N86 8MP got a minor update to v21 firmware. Version 21.006 replaced v20.115 and was a maintenance release, improving performance further and fixing a number of minor bugs.

15 April 2010
Version 30.009 firmware mainly features the latest Ovi Maps client and is now available via Nokia Software Update (142 MB) and Over The Air (5085 KB).

It includes the latest Ovi Maps 3.03 (with free navigation), the sharing of location via Facebook. RealPlayer interface is tweaked (no more d-pad problem while playing videos) and there are some usual minor fixes and improvements.

20 May 2010
It includes the latest Ovi Maps 3.04. The new version adds formal support for WiFi as a positioning method as part of an overhaul of the positioning functionality, plus significant performance improvements for search, zooming and map panning, a number of consumer-friendly UI tweaks and the addition of Qype information to the places database.

N87
The Nokia N87, a successor of the N86, was leaked on the internet with full specifications in December 2009 and then again in early 2010. However it was never released, and instead the touchscreen Nokia N8 was introduced. In November 2010 a prototype of the N87 appeared on eBay which shows it running probably Symbian^3. The listing was removed after some time by the seller. Nokia would never release another high-end non-touchscreen device after the N86 8MP.

The Blacksmith Shop is an exhibit building and a live-demonstration site at Shelburne Museum in Shelburne, Vermont. The Blacksmith Shop, a one-room brick structure built about 1800, and its later frame addition, originally stood near the railroad tracks in the village of Shelburne.

History
While little is known of its early occupancy, records show that John Dubuc had established a blacksmith shop there by 1869. Following Dubuc, a succession of craftspeople occupied the building until it was abandoned in 1935.

Shelburne Museum acquired the Blacksmith Shop in 1955 and moved it to its present location on the museum grounds. In preparation for the move, the building was fitted with a footing of reinforced concrete, braced internally, and jacked up before being rolled onto the bed of a 24-ton trailer, which transported it  down Route 7. The Blacksmith Shop opened in 1956 as the museum's first working exhibit, having been re-outfitted with blacksmith and wheelwright tools acquired from a variety of local sources.

Background information
Communities of the 18th and 19th centuries depended heavily on village blacksmiths as their primary source for tools, utensils, agricultural implements, architectural hardware, vehicle parts, and many other items. Many blacksmiths also served as farriers, not only manufacturing shoes for horses and oxen, but outfitting the animals as well.

In larger communities blacksmiths often worked in conjunction with wheelwrights to manufacture and repair vehicle wheels. Although combination blacksmith-wheelwright shops persisted into the 20th century, their focus gradually changed from the manufacture of one-of-a-kind items to the repair of factory-produced goods. Eventually the availability of mass-produced parts as well as the advent of the automobile age rendered both blacksmiths and wheelwrights obsolete.

Shelburne Museum's Blacksmith Shop represents the trade as it was practiced at the turn of the 20th century. Both the efficient, electric blower, which replaced the wood and leather bellows still resting by the forge, and the electric trip hammer enabled smiths, who at that time often found themselves working alone as the apprentice system broke down, to handle larger work without assistance.

Sydenham (commonly referred to as Sydenham Ward) is a central business district located in Kingston, Ontario, Canada. The Sydenham district for census purposes is bounded by Lake Ontario to the south and east, by Princess Street to the north and Barrie Street to the west. These boundaries do not coincide with the Sydenham Ward boundaries for city councillor elections as they include parts of the downtown main street.

The average family income for the area is $85,636  which is considerably higher than the city average. This is attributable to the neighbourhoods proximity to Queen's University. The Sydenham neighbourhood has a mix of business and retail uses on its east and north sides as it approaches Princess Street, which is Kingston's primary downtown business district. The majority of the neighbourhood however is a mix of permanent homes and rental accommodations for students. Many of Kingston's historic limestone structures can be found in the Sydenham neighbourhood.

The neighbourhood is home to Empire Life Financial's Canadian Headquarters at King & Johnson Streets and is one of Kingston's largest employers with 550 full-time employees.

History

The Pakistan Navy was created from the partition of the Royal Indian Navy after the India's partition on 14/15 August of 1947. Direct appointments in the navy was in the responsibility of the British Admiralty who appointed Rear Admiral James Wilfred Jefford as Pakistan Navy's first Flag Officer Commanding (FOC).

The post was changed to Commander-in-Chief when Vice-Admiral Mohammad Siddiq Choudri became the first native naval commander in 1953, and the title changed from Commander in Chief to Chief of Staff in 1969 with Vice-Admiral Muzaffar Hassan acting as Commander-in-Chief and Rear-Admiral Rashid Ahmad as Chief of Staff. On 20 March 1972, the renamed as "Chief of Naval Staff" (CNS) with Vice-Admiral H.H. Ahmed becoming the first chief of naval staff, though his rank was not elevated to four-star rank.

The term of the superannuation was then constrained to three years in the office as opposed to four years and was made a permanent member of Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee. Since 1972, there have been 14 four-star rank admirals appointed as chiefs of naval staff by statute. The Prime Minister, with the President's confirmation, approved the nomination and appointment of the Chief of Naval Staff.

The leadership of the navy is based in the Navy NHQ located in the vicinity of Air AHQ, and Army GHQ staff offices that form that JS HQ in the Rawalpindi District, Punjab, Pakistan. The CNS controls the navy, assisted by the civilians from the Navy Secretariat-III of the Ministry of Defence (MoD).

Sarah Nettleton "Sally" Pierone (10 February 1921 – 22 June 2018) was an American art director of the Marshall Plan who in 1952 worked at the American Embassy in Paris creating posters, booklets and displays to help rebuild Europe after World War II.

A family counselor as well as an artist, Pierone created the image of "The Raft", enlarging upon Virginia Satir's concepts of family roles by showing how four personality stereotypes counterbalance one another. She is the subject of a biography, Sally — The Older Woman's Illustrated Guide to Self-Improvement, by Judy Laddon.

Early life

Sally Pierone was born Sarah Nettleton Paine on 10 February 1921 in Spokane, Washington. She was the second of two children born to Clara Abercrombie Paine and attorney Alan Paine. Her sister, Harriet, was a year older. Her maternal grandfather, William Ralph Abercrombie, had been the first soldier to arrive in the small settlement of Spokane in 1877.

The newborn Sally was a blue baby who suffered from inattention because her mother was hemorrhaging during childbirth. Clara Paine survived, but for six weeks the baby remained in the hospital. This lack of early maternal bonding, in Pierone's view, caused psychological trauma that she addressed through her art.

Her father was a prominent attorney, eventually a partner in a Spokane law firm that still bears his name, Paine Hamblen. The Paine grandparents owned a family compound in nearby Hayden Lake, Idaho, where Sally and her sister spent their summers. Bing Crosby was a seasonal neighbor and friend.

Education

 1936-1938  Pierone boarded at a private high school, Seattle's The Bush School.
 1938-1940  She attended Chouinard Art Institute (now California Institute of the Arts) in Los Angeles, studying with Italian artist Rico Lebrun and becoming close friends with fellow student Tom Keogh, who became a successful artist, costume and set designer, and who married [[Theodora
Keogh|Theodora Roosevelt]], President Theodore Roosevelt's granddaughter.
 1940-1942  School of Boston Museum of Fine Arts. During the summer of 1941 she worked for Cape Cod folk artist Peter Hunt, who was a national phenomenon, painting bright, primitive pictures on cheap, antiqued furniture. Pierone painted a four-panel screen for opera star Lily Pons.

Work experience

1942-1946 Lived in New York City with her Boston friend Mary Helen Brown. Pierone worked as a full-time assistant art director of W. T. Grant, the burgeoning chain of dime stores. She reconnected with her friend Tom Keogh, also living in New York and working as a costume and set designer/illustrator for Barbara Karinska, costume director for the New York City Ballet.

1946  Returned to Spokane, where she took a job as artist in a small ad agency, Pierone and Associates, owned by a young man, Bob Pierone. They dated for four years.

1950-1952  Sally traveled to Europe with her friend Mary Virginia Gordon, sailing tourist class on the Italian ship Saturnia, arriving in Naples. After stays in Rome and Florence, the young women moved to Paris, where Pierone stayed through 1952. It was in Paris that she took the job of art director of the Marshall Plan, working at the American Embassy and creating posters, booklets, and displays for the European Freedom Train. She also drew illustrations for Newsweek, the New York Times and the Paris Review.

European social scene

In Florence Pierone became friends with Arthur Penn, who later became the famous film producer. Their group of stylish ex-pats obtained recordings of Broadway musicals, which they enacted during dinner parties at a Florentine villa.

In Paris she remained close to Tom Keogh, who was drawing illustrations for books and magazines, including the cover of the first Paris edition of Vogue (magazine). She was also close to Tom's wife, novelist Theodora Roosevelt, granddaughter of President Teddy. She knew society arts patron Marie-Laure, Vicomtesse de Noaille, as well as Julian Stein (Gertrude Stein's nephew), French illustrator William Pene duBois, and American humorist Art Buchwald. Pierone illustrated Buchwald's book Paris After Dark.

Later life

She returned to Spokane at the end of 1952 and fell into a depression, beginning what became many years of psychotherapy. Her marriage to Bob Pierone in 1953 did not prove happy, despite the birth of their three sons: Nick, Peri and Dino. Bob Pierone, an Army code-breaker during World War II, became a prominent Spokane clothier. In her search to understand the source of her problems, Sally studied with famed family therapist Virginia Satir and began to gain tools for reshaping her life. Despite her divorce in 1974, she built a fulfilling life as an artist and family counselor. She created the concept of "The Raft," enlarging upon Satir's personality stereotypes of the Blamer, Super-Reasonable, Placater, and Irrelevant. In her 80s Pierone embarked on a new kind of painting, based upon the teachings of Frenchwoman Michele Cassou. Pierone died in June 2018 at the age of 97.

Soft Black is an American, Brooklyn-based band, fronted by Vincent Cacchione. Much of Soft Black's lyrical content deals with Cacchione's dreams and nightmares. The band's sound was described as "a kind of bizarro-world Neil Young," as well as "[going] against the grain of [Brooklyn]’s more fashionable musical styles".

History
Soft Black began as a regular act at the Sidewalk Cafe in Manhattan, and became a staple of the Brooklyn underground music scene during the late 2000s, releasing three full-length albums between 2005 and 2009: Ramblin' Down a Dead End Street, Blue Gold and The Earth Is Black. The band's latest release, the EP We Scatter Light, was released in 2011.

Frontman Cacchione also is a member of the band Caged Animals, along with his wife Magali Francoise and sister Talya Cacchione, and has performed with Shilpa Ray.

Original guitarist Zachary Cole Smith later found fame with his own band DIIV, formed in 2011 (he also performed as the touring guitarist for Beach Fossils).

In June 2020, it was announced that Soft Black was working on a new album and released a single called Midas Tongue.

"Weightless" is a song by American rock band All Time Low and the first and lead single from the group's third studio album Nothing Personal (2009). The single was released through Hopeless Records as a digital download on April 7, 2009, and was released in the UK on August 3, 2009. The song is also available to download on the music video games Rock Band and Guitar Hero 5. It became the first song by the band to receive radio airplay, exposing the band to a new audience, and helping it peak at No. 104 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song has become a live staple, and is considered to be one of the band's signature songs along with "Dear Maria, Count Me In". In 2014 the song was certified Gold by the RIAA.

Meaning
Lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Alex Gaskarth stated in an interview with MTVu that "The whole mentality of the song is like, you feel like you're stuck in this like, negative space and you just want to get out. Summer's rolling up and uh, everybody's finishing up with school and everybody's getting like the exam beatdown".

In the Nothing Personal album trailer, Jack Barakat said that the song is about not wanting to grow up and just wanting to be a kid.

Music video
The music video for "Weightless" commenced filming on May 20, directed by Matthew Stawski. Fans were invited to go on the set and be a part of the music video. It debuted on MTV, MTV2, mtvU and HITS the day before the album's release, on July 6, 2009. The video opens with Alex Gaskarth being spoken to by some groupies backstage, with text representing his inner monologue, saying things over the girls such as "Only wants your money", "Obsessed", and "Get a restraining order on her." The video continues in this manner with the camera tracking through the venue; situations include Gaskarth backstage being pampered by crew members while text says that lead singers are spoiled, and also for people such as the merchandise seller, the roadies and crew, and various crowd members (including one who thinks "I'd rather be watching Fall Out Boy.") The video also features cameo appearances by Pete Wentz, bassist of Fall Out Boy, and Mark Hoppus, bassist and vocalist of Blink-182 with a joke that Wentz tweets to Hoppus via mobile that All Time Low rips off Fall Out Boy. Hoppus then despairingly thinks to himself that both All Time Low and Fall Out Boy rip off Blink-182. The video ends with the slogan Nothing Personal, which is not only a reference to the album, but is also the theme of the video.

Joseph Knibb (1640–1711) was an English clockmaker of the Restoration era. According to author Herbert Cescinsky, a leading authority on English clocks, Knibb, "next to Tompion, must be regarded as the greatest horologist of his time."

Life and work
He was born in 1640, the fifth son of Thomas Knibb, yeoman of Claydon. He was cousin to Samuel Knibb, clockmaker, to whom he may have been apprenticed in about 1655. After serving his seven years he moved to Oxford in 1663, the year Samuel moved to London.

Knibb set up premises in St Clement's, Oxford, where he was outside the city liberties. In 1665 or 1666 he moved to premises in Holywell Street, which was within the city liberties. The freemen of the city objected to his presence, demanding that he "suddenly shut his windows" because he was not a freeman of the city.

Knibb applied for the Freedom of Oxford twice in 1667 but on both occasions the smiths and watchmakers of the city objected and he was refused. In February 1668 he was finally admitted to the freedom in a compromise arrangement in which he was officially recorded as being employed by Trinity College, Oxford as a gardener and paid a fine of 20 nobles (£6.13s.4d.) and a leather bucket.

In 1669 Wadham College, Oxford had a new turret clock built and from 1671 to 1721 Knibb's younger brother John was paid £1 per year to maintain it. It is the earliest surviving clock with an anchor escapement, and may even be the first such clock ever built. In 1954 the antiquarian horologist Dr. C.F.C. Beeson proposed the theory that Joseph Knibb had built the clock. Beeson's theory has since become widely accepted.

By 1670 Knibb had moved to London where he was made free of the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers. Initially he set up business at the Dyal, near Serjeant's Inn in Fleet Street, subsequently moving to the House at the Dyal, in Suffolk Street. He was elected as a steward of the Clockmakers Company in August 1684 and assistant in July 1689. He retired from London in 1697 and went to live in Hanslope in Buckinghamshire, where he continued to make clocks until his death in 1711.

Reputation and legacy
Joseph Knibb is renowned for both the quality of his work and his invention. The aesthetic beauty and simplicity of his work is unparalleled. Among his many inventions was the system of Roman striking, the tic-tac escapement, and probably the anchor escapement. His merits were recognised by his being appointed clockmaker to Charles II and then to James II.

Clock cases of Knibb's era were wooden, and therefore were made by specialist clockcase makers who were members of the Worshipful Company of Joiners and Ceilers. The politician Richard Legh (1635–87) wrote to his wife describing Knibb's advice on choosing a case for a longcase clock:
I went to the famous Pendulum maker Knibb, and have agreed for one, he having none ready but a dull stager which was at £19; for £5 more I have agreed for one finer than my Father's, and it is to be better furnished with carved capitalls gold, and gold pedestalls with figures of boys and cherubimes all brass gilt. I wold have had itt Olive Wood, (the Case I mean), but gold does not agree with that colour, soe took their advice to have it black Ebony which suits your Cabinett better than Walnut tree wood, of which they are mostly made. Lett me have thy advice by the next.

Legh's young wife, Elizabeth, replied in agreement: "My dearest Soule; as for the Pandolome Case I think Blacke suits anything".

Joseph Knibb is the most accomplished of an extended family of clockmakers that included his cousin Samuel and Joseph's younger brother John. A younger cousin Peter Knibb (1651–79) from Farnborough, Warwickshire was apprenticed to Joseph in 1668 and became a freeman of the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers in 1677. John Knibb's youngest son, also called Joseph (1695–1722) was apprenticed in London in 1710 and received a substantial bequest from the elder Joseph Knibb's will in 1712. Another cousin, Elizabeth Knibb from Collingtree, Northamptonshire, married another clockmaker, Samuel Aldworth, in 1703. Aldworth had been in Oxford as John Knibb's apprentice and then assistant. In 1697 Aldworth moved from Oxford to London to succeed Joseph Knibb on the latter's retirement to Hanslope.

On 26 September 2010 the Oxfordshire Blue Plaques Board unveiled a blue plaque at Claydon to Samuel, Joseph and John Knibb.

On 6 November 2012 Sotheby's sold a small Roman striking table clock by Knibb from the George Daniels collection for £1,273,250.

Philip Holzman (1922–2004) was the Esther and Sidney R. Rabb Professor of Psychology Emeritus at Harvard University and one of the world’s preeminent scientists in schizophrenia research. His landmark studies of oculomotor function documented the presence of abnormal smooth pursuit eye movements in individuals with schizophrenia (Holzman, Proctor and Hughes, 1973) and their clinically unaffected biological relatives (Holzman et al., 1974). He was one of the first to investigate the genetic basis of schizophrenia. Another key contribution to the study of schizophrenia was his work on language and thought disorder in individuals with schizophrenia (Holzman, Shenton and Solovay, 1986). He also discovered the presence of an active short-term memory deficit (known as working memory) in people with schizophrenia and their biological relatives (Park and Holzman, 1991; Park, Holzman and Goldman-Rakic, 1995).

Early life and education
Philip Seidman Holzman was born on May 2, 1922, in Manhattan. He graduated from the College of the City of New York in 1943. After his military service, he embarked on graduate studies in psychology. In 1952, he received his Ph.D. from the University of Kansas.

Research career
Dr. Holzman was an instructor at the Menninger Foundation School of Clinical Psychology before joining the Topeka Psychoanalytic Institute, where he was a supervisory psychoanalyst from 1963 to 1968. He was then appointed a professor in the University of Chicago's department of psychiatry, a position he held until moving to Harvard in 1977.

At Harvard, Dr. Holzman was the Esther and Sidney R. Rabb Professor of Psychology between 1977 and 2002.  In 2002, he accepted Emeritus status from the University.  He was also the director of the Psychology Research Laboratory at McLean Hospital in Belmont, Massachusetts from 1977 until 2004 [1]. At McLean, he was a member of the Mailman Research Center, founded by Seymour Kety.

"During 22 years at the Menninger Foundation, he co-authored a book on psychoanalytic technique, validated a Rorschach determinant as a predictor of risk for suicide, and wrote extensively on clinical issues—process in psychotherapy supervision, therapeutic elements of the hospital milieu, and the psychodynamic meaning of procrastination, to mention just a few. He was one of a handful of clinical psychologists to receive full psychoanalytic training within the psychoanalytic establishment. He became a training and supervising analyst in Topeka and continued to practice and teach in Chicago and Boston. His earliest mentors were Gardner Murphy, Karl Menninger, David Rapaport, Merton Gill, and Roy Schafer. During the same period, he embarked on an ambitious program of research with George Klein and Herbert Schlesinger on the effects of motivation, drive regulation, memory, defenses, and reality constraints on different styles of regulating cognition. From this body of work, terms such as cognitive controls, cognitive styles, and perceptual or cognitive attitudes became part of the lexicon of general psychology." [1] In the 1960s, he also conducted several studies on the causes of voice confrontation.

Thus, he had established two entirely distinct, and very distinguished careers even before he began his research in schizophrenia. He was originally trained as a clinical psychologist immersed in psychoanalysis, but he also established a successful and influential research program that examined individual differences in perceptual organization using empirical methods. These two distinct lines of work representing the subjective experiences of the individual and the empirical, objective framework of experimental psychopathology co-existed throughout his career. Throughout his tenure at Harvard, he continued to train and supervise at the Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute.

He was an exceptional advisor and mentor, having trained generations of research scientists, academics and clinicians throughout his career, including Dr. Deborah Levy (1950-2020), the former director of the Psychology Laboratory at McLean Hospital, Prof. Martha Shenton at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Smadar Levin (1946-1989), Dr. Margie Solovay, Dr. Deborah Yurgulun-Todd at University of Utah, Prof. Sohee Park at Vanderbilt University, Prof. Anne Sereno at Purdue University, Prof. Diane Gooding at the University of Wisconsin, Prof. Gillian O'Driscoll at McGill University, Prof. Jeanyung Chey at Seoul National University, Prof. Dara Manoach at Mass. General, Dr. Donna Jenkins and Dr. Yue Chen (1959-2017) among many others.

Awards and recognition
Dr. Holzman was a former president of the Society for Research in Psychopathology, a society he co-founded. He was elected a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 1979 and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1982. Among many honors, Dr. Holzman received the American Psychological Foundation's Alexander Gralnick research award in 2001. In 1997, the International Congress on Schizophrenia Research recognized him with its Warren award for lifetime achievement in research.

Personal life and death
He was married to Ann for 58 years, and had three children. Philip Holzman died of a stroke in Boston on 1 June 2004.
