A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Friday, April 4,  1958, the first of three lunar eclipses in 1958. This was the last penumbral lunar eclipse of Saros cycle 102. In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 1% of the Moon's disc for 31 minutes exactly, which was essentially impossible to see.

Charles II de Croÿ (31 July 1522 – Quiévrain, 24 June 1551) was Seigneur de Croÿ, 2nd Duke of Aarschot, 3rd Prince of Chimay and 3rd Count of Beaumont.

He was the eldest son of Philippe II de Croÿ, Duke of Aarschot, and Anne de Croÿ, Princess of Chimay.
After his mother's death in 1539, he inherited the Principality of Chimay, and after his father's death in 1549, the Duchy of Aarschot, thus uniting for the first time the two great titles of the House of Croÿ .

He married in 1541 Louise of Lorraine (1521–1542), daughter of Claude, Duke of Guise and Antoinette de Bourbon. After the early death of Louise, he married Antoinette of Burgundy (1529–1588) in 1549. Antoinette was the sister of Maximilian II of Burgundy, who was married to Charles' sister, Louise de Croÿ (1524–1585).

Charles de Croÿ was murdered in 1551 in Quiévrain. Because he had no children, all his titles and possessions went to his younger brother Philippe III de Croÿ. His widow later married Jacques d’Anneux, Seigneur d‘Aubencourt.

A partial lunar eclipse took place on Saturday, August 26, 1961, the second of two partial lunar eclipses in 1961. This nearly total lunar eclipse of Saros cycle 137 preceded the first total eclipse on September 6, 1979. It took place around lunar perigee, therefore as a result, the Moon appeared larger than usual. It was the largest partial lunar eclipse since October 28, 1939, making it the second largest partial lunar eclipse of the 20th century.

"Los Maté" is a reggaeton song performed by Tego Calderón for his album The Underdog/El Subestimado. The song was released as the album's lead single in late 2006 and became a reggaeton hit, peaking inside the top ten on the majority of the charts it entered. This single was released with Jiggiri Records (Tego Calderón's label) and Atlantic Records. A remix featuring Arcángel and Chyno Nyno has been made.

Background
In the booklet of The Underdog/El Subestimado, Tego Calderón states that "Los Maté" is a dis track. The reason that he released the lead single as a dis track is that the meaning of The Underdog/El Subestimado is that others tried to take Tego out of the game, but failed to do so. The track disses Lito & Polaco, and Tego eventually stopped releasing dis tracks once El Abayarde Contraataca was released. The song background and begging comes from a song from Roberto Cantoral called "El preso numero 9".

Music video
The music video for "Los Maté" was the album's first music video filmed. During this time, Tego Calderón was getting a lot of airplay. The music video reflects what the song lyrics express. Other than the guys holding the guitars and a woman, Tego Calderón is the only person seen in the music video. Tego Calderón raps while the woman dances reggaeton, and expresses that the others failed to take him out of the game.

Remix
A remix of "Los Maté" has also been made. It features artists Arcángel and Chyno Nyno. The chorus is sung differently, and Tego Calderón changes his rap. Although the remix hasn't been on any of Tego's albums, it has been on many mixtapes including mixtapes by DJ Sin-Cero. The remix is another dis to Lito & Polaco.

Rodrigo Barbosa (born September 30, 1988) is a Brazilian racing driver from São Paulo.

After karting, he began racing in Brazilian Formula Renault 2.0 in 2005 and continued in the series in 2006, finishing 19th in points. In 2007 he competed in amateur SCCA Formula Atlantic in the United States and finished 9th at the SCCA Runoff National Championships at Heartland Park Topeka. In 2009 he competed in the Firestone Indy Lights Series for the ELFF Racing team, which returned to the series for the first time since 1993, using a car acquired from Guthrie Meyer Racing. Barbosa struggled to find speed throughout the 2009 season and was constantly in the back of the field, never qualifying ahead of the last row and only managing a best finish of 10th, at Chicagoland Speedway where he was still the last place car running at the finish.

At the season's end he tested with PDM Racing at Barber Motorsports Park and was able to run four seconds per lap faster with the team than he had with ELFF during the open test at Barber earlier that season. He signed on with PDM to contest the 2010 season. Barbosa completed the season in 12th place, again last amongst full-time competitors, but did score four top-ten finishes, and managed to not qualify last in a number of oval races.

In 2012 he scored two podiums in three races in the Brazilian Endurance Championship.

Fantasma d'amore () is a 1981 drama film directed by Dino Risi that stars Romy Schneider and Marcello Mastroianni.

Plot
Nino, a married tax accountant, sees on a bus Anna, the woman he loved 20 years ago, now poor and ill. After he gives her money for her fare, she hops off and disappears. That night she rings him at his home to say she can repay him and he goes to the dingy address she gives, where he takes the money and she again disappears. Later it emerges that the concierge has been bloodily murdered.

To the dismay of his wife, he becomes obsessed with Anna, seeing flashbacks of her when young and beautiful and trying to meet her again. After a doctor friend of his who knew her says she died three years ago, he is found dead at the hospital where he worked. She rings him to say he can visit her at a mansion in the country. To his joy, the young Anna welcomes him, but will not let him make love since she is now married to the owner, Count Zighi. Later, she rings to say they can make love in a boat on the river as they used to do. When he stops the boat in a quiet place, she falls in and disappears under the water.

Nino informs the police, who start searching, and his irate wife leaves him. Going to Count Zighi to explain, he is told by the angry count that Anna died three years ago. This is confirmed by the housekeeper, who takes him to the grave. Going back to the police, he apologises for his story and says he was in fact with a prostitute. They say that a body has been found, but it is a man who was on the river bank.

The film ends in the grounds of a nursing home, where a shapely nurse comes to bring Nino indoors. When we see her face, it is the young Anna.

A total lunar eclipse took place on Thursday, November 7, 1957. The Moon barely edged into total eclipse for 27 minutes and 54 seconds. With the Moon just 3.5% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, the Moon may have been quite bright, but even so, this should have been worth seeing. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 27 minutes in total.

Arthur Joseph Turcotte (May 14, 1850 – November 1, 1918) was a Canadian liquor merchant and political figure in Quebec. He represented Montmorency in the House of Commons of Canada from 1892 to 1896 as a Conservative member.

He was born at Saint-Jean, Île d'Orléans, Canada East, the son of Hubert Turcotte and Virginie Blagdon. He entered business as a retailer of wines and spirits in partnership with a Mr. Prévost, later becoming a wine wholesaler on his own. Turcotte went on to serve as head of the post office at Quebec City. In 1871, he married Olivia, the daughter of Rémi-Ferdinand Rinfret. Turcotte was defeated by Joseph Israël Tarte in the 1891 federal election but won an 1892 by-election held after the results of that election were appealed. He died in Quebec City at the age of 68.

Joshua Milne (1776–1851), was an English actuary.

Life

He was appointed actuary to the Sun Life Assurance Society on 15 June 1810, and reconstructed the life tables then in use. He gave evidence before the select committee on the laws respecting friendly societies (1825 and 1827).

By 1839 Milne had lost interest in the values of life contingencies, and turned to natural history; he is said to have possessed one of the best botanical libraries in London. He resigned his position in the Sun Life Office on 19 December 1843, and died at Upper Clapton on 4 January 1851. He was buried on the western side of Highgate Cemetery.

Actuarial works
When Milne entered the field, life tables were based on the data taken by Richard Price from the burial registers (1735–80) of All Saints' Church, Northampton. Milne took as the basis of his calculations the bills of mortality from Carlisle, which had been prepared by John Heysham. After a long correspondence (12 September 1812 – 14 June 1814) with Heysham, he published his major work A Treatise on the Valuation of Annuities and Assurances (1815). Milne's new "Carlisle table" marked an epoch in actuarial science. Considering the narrow base of data from which he had to work, it was quite accurate, and was widely adopted by insurance societies. The Carlisle Table was largely superseded by that published by the Institute of Actuaries in 1870. But it was still considered useful in the early 20th century.

Subsequent writers built on Milne's work. He was the first to compute accurately, at the cost of heavy algebra, the value of fines (i.e. payments to be made at the successive deaths of persons). His notation for the expression of life contingencies suggested that of Augustus De Morgan in his Essay on Probabilities.

Milne also contributed to the Encyclopædia Britannica, fourth edition, articles on "Annuities", "Bills of Mortality", and "Law of Mortality".

The secretary general of NATO is the chief civil servant of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). The officeholder is an international diplomat responsible for coordinating the workings of the alliance, leading NATO's international staff, chairing the meetings of the North Atlantic Council and most major committees of the alliance, with the notable exception of the NATO Military Committee, as well as acting as NATO's spokesperson. The secretary general does not have a military command role; political, military and strategic decisions ultimately rest with the member states. Together with the Chair of the NATO Military Committee and the supreme allied commander, the officeholder is one of the foremost officials of NATO.

The current secretary general is former Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg, who took office on 1 October 2014. Stoltenberg's mission as secretary general was extended for another four-year term, meaning that he was to lead NATO until September 30, 2022. However, due to Russia's invasion of Ukraine in 2022, his term was extended further by another year.

History
Article 9 of the North Atlantic Treaty requires NATO members to "establish a Council, on which each of them shall be represented." Accordingly, the North Atlantic Council was formed.  Initially the Council consisted of NATO members' foreign ministers and met annually. In May 1950, the desire for closer coordination on a day-to-day basis led to the appointment of Council deputies, permanently based in London and overseeing the workings of the organization.  Deputies were given full decision-making authority within the North Atlantic Council, but their work was supplemented by occasional meetings of the NATO foreign ministers.  The chairman of the deputies was given responsibility "for directing the organization and its work," including all of its civilian agencies.

The Council deputies met for the first time on July 25, 1950, and selected Charles Spofford, the United States deputy, as their chairman. Several important organisational changes quickly followed the establishment of Council deputies, most notably the establishment of a unified military command under a single supreme Allied commander.  This unification and the growing challenges facing NATO led to rapid growth in the institutions of the organisation and in 1951, NATO was reorganized to streamline and centralize its bureaucracy.  As part of the organization, the Council deputies were delegated with the authority to represent their governments in all matters, including those related to defense and finance, not just foreign affairs, greatly increasing their power and importance.

As the authority of the deputies increased, and the size of the organization grew, NATO established the Temporary Council Committee, chaired by W. Averell Harriman.  This group established an official secretariat in Paris to command NATO's bureaucracy. The committee also recommended that "the agencies of NATO needed to be strengthened and co-ordinate", and emphasized the need for someone other than the Chairman of the North Atlantic Council to become the senior leader of the alliance. In February 1952, North Atlantic Council accordingly established the position of secretary general to manage all civilian agencies of the organization, control its civilian staff, and serve the North Atlantic Council.

After the Lisbon Conference, the NATO states began looking for a person who could fill the role of secretary general. The position was first offered to Oliver Franks, the British ambassador to the United States, but he declined. Then, on March 12, 1952, the North Atlantic Council selected Hastings Ismay, a general from the Second World War, and Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations in the British cabinet as secretary general.  Unlike later secretaries general who served as Chairman of the North Atlantic Council, Ismay was made the vice chairman of the council, with Spofford continuing to serve as chairman. Ismay was selected because of his high rank in the war, and his role "at the side of Churchill ... in the highest Allied Councils." As both a soldier and a diplomat, he was considered uniquely qualified for the position, and enjoyed the full support of all the NATO states.

Several months later, after Spofford retired from the NATO, the structure of the North Atlantic Council was changed slightly. One member of the council was selected annually as the president of the North Atlantic Council (a largely ceremonial role), and the secretary general officially became the Deputy President of the Council, as well as the chair of its meetings. Ismay served as secretary general until retiring in May, 1957.

After Ismay, Paul-Henri Spaak, an international diplomat and former prime minister of Belgium was selected as the second secretary general. Unlike Ismay, Spaak had no military experience, so his appointment represented a "deemphasis of the strictly military side of the Atlantic Alliance." When confirming Spaak's appointment in December 1956 during a session of the NATO foreign ministers, the North Atlantic Council also expanded the role of the secretary general in the organization. Largely as a result of the Suez Crisis, which had strained intra-alliance relations, the council issued a resolution to allow the secretary general "to offer his good officers informally at any time to member governments involved in a dispute and with their consent to initiate or facilitate procedures of inquiry, mediation, conciliation, or arbitration."

List of officeholders

The NATO countries selected the first secretary general on April 4, 1952. Since that time, twelve different diplomats have served officially as secretary general. Eight countries have been represented, with three secretaries general hailing from the United Kingdom, three from the Netherlands, two from Belgium, one from Italy, one from Germany, one from Spain, one from Denmark and one from Norway. The position has also been occupied temporarily on three occasions by an acting secretary general between appointments.

Responsibilities
The NATO secretary general chairs several of the senior decision-making bodies of NATO.  In addition to the North Atlantic Council, he chairs the Defence Planning Committee and the Nuclear Planning Committee, two of NATO's important military organizations.  The secretary general also leads the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council, the Mediterranean Cooperation Group, and serves as Joint Chairman of the Permanent Joint Council and the NATO-Ukraine Commission.

In a second role, the secretary general leads the staff of NATO.  He directs the International Staff of the organization, and the Office of the Secretary General.  The secretary general also directs his or her own Private Office.  All of these bodies draw personnel from all members of NATO, so the secretary general must carefully coordinate.  For assistance in his responsibilities, the secretary general also has a deputy appointed by the organization.

Selection
There is no formal process for selecting the secretary general.  The members of NATO traditionally reach a consensus on who should serve next. This procedure often takes place through informal diplomatic channels, but it still can become contentious. For example, in 2009, controversy arose over the choice of Anders Fogh Rasmussen as secretary general, due to opposition from Turkey.

NATO's chief military officer, the supreme Allied commander Europe, is traditionally an American, and the secretary general has traditionally been a European. However, there is nothing in NATO's charter that would preclude a Canadian or American from becoming the secretary general.

I and Love and You is the 2009 major label debut by The Avett Brothers and produced by Rick Rubin.

The first single, "I and Love and You" was released on June 24, 2009, via free digital download. The album was released on vinyl on September 15, 2009, with the CD and digital formats becoming available on September 29, 2009. The album was available in streaming format on National Public Radio's Web site prior to its release.

The song "I and Love and You" was chosen as the Starbucks iTunes Pick of the Week for September 22, 2009. From September 8 to October 8, 2009, The Avett Brothers released a 13 chapter video series about I and Love and You, each chapter featuring one song from the album (one chapter at a time, posting each on various websites before collecting them for viewing on their own page).

Background and release
In 2008, the band announced on Myspace that they signed with American Recordings to produce a new album. Previously, the band was signed to the independent label Ramseur Records. Rick Rubin was impressed by The Avett Brothers' previous album, Emotionalism and decided to produce the album. I and Love and You was the band's major label debut (American Recordings was a subsidiary of Sony Music Entertainment) and was recorded in Los Angeles.

I and Love and You was released on September 29, 2009. The album peaked at No. 16 on the Billboard 200 and at No. 72 on the UK Albums Chart.

The cover art is an oil painting by Scott Avett called Julianne in Vain.

Reception

I and Love and You has received generally positive reviews. On the review aggregation site Metacritic, the album has a score of 73 out of 100, indicating "Generally favorable reviews."

Bart Blasengame of Paste gave the album a very positive review, writing that the Avett Brothers "...constructed something beautiful" while still making their sound more mainstream. The review continued: "The depth and beauty that spread all across I and Love and You will, with any luck, keep The Avett Brothers from becoming The Jonas Brothers." PopMatters Steve Leftridge called the album the band's best record yet, writing "I and Love and You'''s new elegant musical direction and very strong set of new songs indicate that they are band that is indeed just getting revved up. They might remain too folk-fringe-y to be pop's Next Big Thing, but the Avetts' latest fully delivers on this band's considerable potential." Leftridge also praised Rick Rubin's contributions.

In a more mixed review, Pitchforks Stephen Deusner was less receptive to the album's mainstream sound, writing "Every instrument sounds perfectly placed, and that's a shame because the Avetts got more mileage out of their rough edges than most bands this decade." Deusner also called the album "predictable" and concluded: "It's not that there's no room for such studio nuance in the Avetts' music, but it gives I and Love and You a quotidian sheen, making their signature sincerity seem sappy and much less special." Despite the mixed review, Deusner praised the track "Laundry Room." Alexis Petridis of The Guardian also praised the track "Laundry Room" in his otherwise mixed review, writing "The finest moment may be when 'Laundry Room' unexpectedly abandons the blueprint after three and half minutes and explodes into a thrilling bluegrass coda. At that moment, I and Love and You sounds like a band suddenly doing what they want to, rather than what they think they should."Paste named I and Love and You the best album of 2009, writing "For their artistic breakthrough, these North Carolina howlers polished their scruffy Americana sound until it gleamed. The result: an overpowering acoustic album brimming with sadness and soul." In 2009, the album was ranked #9 on Pastes "The 50 Best Albums of the Decade" list.

Osvaldo Jeanty (born August 1, 1983) is a Canadian basketball coach and former professional basketball player.

He is one of the all-time greats of the Carleton University Ravens men's basketball team and a member of the Ravens' Hall of Fame. Jeanty was named CIS male athlete of the year in 2006, and CIS basketball player of the year in 2006 and 2007. He also played on Canada's men's national team.

Upon graduation, he spent six years playing professionally in Germany, Morocco, Romania and in the NBL Canada. He retired from professional basketball in November 2013.

University career

Born in Belle-Rivière, Haiti, Jeanty attended Carleton University majoring in commerce. In 2006, he was named the 2006 CIS male athlete of the year, by the Borden Ladner Gervais awards committee, becoming the first of two Carleton Raven student-athletes to do so in its twenty-one year history. Jeanty won Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) titles every year while at Carleton, and was the MVP in four of those five championship games. During the 2005–06 season, he led the Carleton Ravens men`s basketball team to their fourth straight CIS national basketball championship while leading the Ravens in scoring with a total of 326 points, which equates to an average of 14.8 points per game. In addition to being selected to the CIS All-star team during the 2005–06 season, Jeanty was also named the CIS `final 10` tournament MVP thus earning himself every MVP opportunity he could have that season.

Professional play

Jeanty began playing internationally in the 2007–08 season playing for the Giants Nördlingen in Germany. He contributed to the success of the team that season, and helped them reach the first place in the ProA championship and therefore gaining the team a spot in the Basketball Bundesliga (BBL), Germany's top-tier league, while receiving ProA First team honors by eurobasket.com. He signed a contract extension with the Giants in June 2008 and would average 13.3 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 32 BBL contests during the 2008-09 BBL campaign.

For the 2009–10 season, Jeanty started in Morocco, then returned to Nördlingen for a short stint, before signing with CS Gaz Metan Medias in Romania. In January he returned to the BBL to join the Giessen 46ers team where he stayed for the rest of the season. Throughout the 2009–10 season, Jeanty averaged 13.1 points, 2.3 rebounds all while shooting 40.7% of his three-point shot attempts.

For the 2010–11 season, Jeanty remained in the German BBL, signing with BBC Bayreuth on a one-year contract which was later extended to 2012. On November 2012, Jeanty left the German league to play with the London Lightning in the National Basketball league of Canada. Jeanty would only spend half a season with the Lightning, averaging 4.5 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.1 assists. Jeanty returned to Germany to play with BBL side Mitteldeutscher Basketball club and as a member of the team, averaged 7.5 points per game in the 2012–2013 season.

He announced his retirement from professional basketball in November 2013. On October 16, 2014, Jeanty was inducted into the Carleton University Ravens Hall of Fame.

International play
He played for Canada's national men's basketball team on a European tour in the summer of 2006 and ended up in seventh place with Team Canada at the 2007 Pan American Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Post-playing career
Following his playing career, Jeanty worked for a company in Ottawa, offering full service brokerage services. He also remained close to the sport of basketball: Jeanty and his former Carleton teammate Willy Manigat run the Premier Hoops Academy.

Jeanty served as head coach of Cégep de l’Outaouais' basketball team between 2014 and 2016 and then joined the coaching staff of the Carleton University men's basketball team as an assistant to Dave Smart from 2016 to 2019. In 2020, he was named as the head coach of the CEBL's Ottawa Blackjacks. His contract expired following the 2020 season. Jeanty became a Financial planner for the Royal Bank of Canada.

Personal life
Jeanty resides in Gloucester, Ontario.

Michael Heckert (born 29 October 1950, in Halle an der Saale) is a contemporary painter who dedicates himself to abstract expressionism. The artist depicts and describes the phenomenon of the female. He was influenced by American painter Willem de Kooning.

Life
Heckert grew up in Ostwestfalen, Germany. He presently maintains residences and studios in Cologne, Germany, and in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.

In early childhood Heckert displayed an unusual artistic talent for painting, and he determined to become a painter. His parents judged his passion as “breadless art” and forced him to complete an apprenticeship as a wholesale and foreign trade merchandiser in order to support financially his parental household (out of 96,- German Marks net wage during the first year as an apprentice he had to deliver at home 80,- German Marks ). After 11 years of little success in this occupation he managed – in spite of only having studied up to the compulsory school level –  to study arts in the SHFBK Braunschweig and graduated with outstanding achievements.

Artistic career
Heckert's first exhibition was in 1982 in Cologne, in the Heinz Holtmann Gallery, and was considered successful. His longing for illimitability in expression led 1984 to a change of style in his paintings: he turned away from the half figurative paintings and sought to materialise his mode of expression in abstract painting. Despite the strong influence of de Kooning, he developed his own form for his artistic contents: The female.

At the beginning of 2007 Heckert moved to Port-au-Prince, where he encountered new impressions and challenges. The local art which predominantly deals with Voodoo and the everyday life of the Haitian people inspires increasingly his oeuvre.

The Isartor at the Isartorplatz in Munich is one of four main gates of the medieval city wall. It served as a fortification for the defence and is the most easterly of Munich's three remaining gothic town gates (Isartor, Sendlinger Tor and Karlstor). The gate (German: Tor) is located close to the Isar and was named after the river.

Architecture

The Isartor was constructed in 1337 within the scope of the enlargement of Munich and the construction of the second city wall between 1285 and 1337 which was completed under the Emperor Louis IV. The gate first consisted of a  main gate tower. Only with the construction of the moat wall of the gate tower the two flanking side towers were added and served as barbican. The Isartor is today the only medieval gate in Munich which has conserved its medium main tower and the restoration in 1833-35 by Friedrich von Gärtner has recreated the dimensions and appearance close to the original structure. The frescos, created in 1835 by Bernhard von Neher, depict the victorious return of Emperor Louis after the Battle of Mühldorf in 1322.

The Isartor today houses a humorous museum which is dedicated to the comedian and actor Karl Valentin. A café for visitors has been integrated.

The Isartortheater, which produced Singspiele and spoken plays in the early 19th century, was destroyed in the Second World War. After being heavily damaged by shelling, the medieval gate was rebuilt.

The Isartorplatz is served by the S Bahn station which is named  Isartor after the gate as well as 2 tram lines.

The Signorini problem is an elastostatics problem in linear elasticity: it consists in finding the elastic equilibrium configuration of an anisotropic non-homogeneous elastic body, resting on a rigid frictionless surface and subject only to its mass forces. The name was coined by Gaetano Fichera to honour his teacher, Antonio Signorini: the original name coined by him is problem with ambiguous boundary conditions.

History

The problem was posed by Antonio Signorini during a course taught at the Istituto Nazionale di Alta Matematica in 1959, later published as the article , expanding a previous short exposition he gave in a note published in 1933.  himself called it problem with ambiguous boundary conditions, since there are two alternative sets of boundary conditions the solution must satisfy on any given contact point. The statement of the problem involves not only equalities but also inequalities, and it is not a priori known what of the two sets of boundary conditions is satisfied at each point. Signorini asked to determine if the problem is well-posed or not in a physical sense, i.e. if its solution exists and is unique or not: he explicitly invited young analysts to study the problem.

Gaetano Fichera and Mauro Picone attended the course, and Fichera started to investigate the problem: since he found no references to similar problems in the theory of boundary value problems, he decided to approach it by starting from first principles, specifically from the virtual work principle.

During Fichera's researches on the problem, Signorini began to suffer serious health problems: nevertheless, he desired to know the answer to his question before his death. Picone, being tied by a strong friendship with Signorini, began to chase Fichera to find a solution: Fichera himself, being tied as well to Signorini by similar feelings, perceived the last months of 1962 as worrying days. Finally, on the first days of January 1963, Fichera was able to give a complete proof of the existence of a unique solution for the problem with ambiguous boundary condition, which he called the "Signorini problem" to honour his teacher. A preliminary research announcement, later published as , was written up and submitted to Signorini exactly a week before his death. Signorini expressed great satisfaction to see a solution to his question.
A few days later, Signorini had with his family Doctor, Damiano Aprile, the conversation quoted above.

The solution of the Signorini problem coincides with the birth of the field of variational inequalities.

Formal statement of the problem
The content of this section and the following subsections follows closely the treatment of Gaetano Fichera in ,  and also : his derivation of the problem is different from Signorini's one in that he does not consider only incompressible bodies and a plane rest surface, as Signorini does. The problem consist in finding the displacement vector from the natural configuration  of an anisotropic non-homogeneous elastic body that lies in a subset  of the three-dimensional euclidean space whose boundary is  and whose interior normal is the vector , resting on a rigid frictionless surface whose contact surface (or more generally contact set) is  and subject only to its body forces , and surface forces  applied on the free (i.e. not in contact with the rest surface) surface : the set  and the contact surface  characterize the natural configuration of the body and are known a priori. Therefore, the body has to satisfy the general equilibrium equations

written using the Einstein notation as all in the following development, the ordinary boundary conditions on

and the following two sets of boundary conditions on , where  is the Cauchy stress tensor. Obviously, the body forces and surface forces cannot be given in arbitrary way but they must satisfy a condition in order for the body to reach an equilibrium configuration: this condition will be deduced and analyzed in the following development.

The ambiguous boundary conditions
If  is any tangent vector to the contact set , then the ambiguous boundary condition in each point of this set are expressed by the following two systems of inequalities

or

Let's analyze their meaning:
Each set of conditions consists of three relations, equalities or inequalities, and all the second members are the zero function.
The quantities at first member of each first relation are proportional to the norm of the component of the displacement vector directed along the normal vector .
The quantities at first member of each second relation are proportional to the norm of the component of the tension vector directed along the normal vector ,
The quantities at the first member of each third relation are proportional to the norm of the component of the tension vector along any vector  tangent in the given point to the contact set .
The quantities at the first member of each of the three relations are positive if they have the same sense of the vector they are proportional to, while they are negative if not, therefore the constants of proportionality are respectively  and  .
Knowing these facts, the set of conditions  applies to points of the boundary of the body which do not leave the contact set  in the equilibrium configuration, since, according to the first relation, the displacement vector  has no components directed as the normal vector , while, according to the second relation, the tension vector may have a component directed as the normal vector  and having the same sense. In an analogous way, the set of conditions  applies to points of the boundary of the body which leave that set in the equilibrium configuration, since displacement vector  has a component directed as the normal vector , while the tension vector has no components directed as the normal vector . For both sets of conditions, the tension vector has no tangent component to the contact set, according to the hypothesis that the body rests on a rigid frictionless surface.

Each system expresses a unilateral constraint, in the sense that they express the physical impossibility of the elastic body to penetrate into the surface where it rests: the ambiguity is not only in the unknown values non-zero quantities must satisfy on the contact set but also in the fact that it is not a priori known if a point belonging to that set satisfies the system of boundary conditions  or . The set of points where  is satisfied is called the area of support of the elastic body on , while its complement respect to  is called the area of separation.

The above formulation is general since the Cauchy stress tensor i.e. the constitutive equation of the elastic body has not been made explicit: it is equally valid assuming the hypothesis of linear elasticity or the ones of nonlinear elasticity. However, as it would be clear from the following developments, the problem is inherently nonlinear, therefore assuming a linear stress tensor does not simplify the problem.

The form of the stress tensor in the formulation of Signorini and Fichera
The form assumed by Signorini and Fichera for the elastic potential energy is the following one (as in the previous developments, the Einstein notation is adopted)

where
 is the elasticity tensor
 is the infinitesimal strain tensor
The Cauchy stress tensor has therefore the following form

and it is linear with respect to the components of the infinitesimal strain tensor; however, it is not homogeneous nor isotropic.

Solution of the problem
As for the section on the formal statement of the Signorini problem, the contents of this section and the included subsections follow closely the treatment of Gaetano Fichera in , ,  and also : obviously, the exposition focuses on the basics steps of the proof of the existence and uniqueness for the solution of problem , , ,  and , rather than the technical details.

The potential energy
The first step of the analysis of Fichera as well as the first step of the analysis of Antonio Signorini in  is the analysis of the potential energy, i.e. the following functional

where  belongs to the set of admissible displacements  i.e. the set of displacement vectors satisfying the system of boundary conditions  or . The meaning of each of the three terms is the following
the first one is the total elastic potential energy of the elastic body
the second one is the total potential energy due to the body forces, for example the gravitational force
the third one is the potential energy due to surface forces, for example the forces exerted by the atmospheric pressure
 was able to prove that the admissible displacement  which minimize the integral  is a solution of the problem with ambiguous boundary conditions , , ,  and , provided it is a  function supported on the closure  of the set : however Gaetano Fichera gave a class of counterexamples in  showing that in general, admissible displacements are
not smooth functions of these class. Therefore, Fichera tries to minimize the functional  in a wider function space: in doing so, he first calculates the first variation (or functional derivative) of the given functional in the neighbourhood of the sought minimizing admissible displacement , and then requires it to be greater than or equal to zero

Defining the following functionals

and

the preceding inequality is can be written as

This inequality is the variational inequality for the Signorini problem.

A partial lunar eclipse took place on Tuesday, November 29, 1955 with an umbral eclipse magnitude of 0.11899. A partial lunar eclipse happens when the Earth moves between the Sun and the Full Moon, but they are not precisely aligned. Only part of the Moon's visible surface moves into the dark part of the Earth's shadow. A partial lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth moves between the Sun and Moon but the three celestial bodies do not form a straight line in space. When that happens, a small part of the Moon's surface is covered by the darkest, central part of the Earth's shadow, called the umbra. The rest of the Moon is covered by the outer part of the Earth's shadow called the penumbra. It was the second of two lunar eclipses in 1955, first being the penumbral lunar eclipse on June 5.  It also occurred near perigee, making such event a supermoon.

A penumbral lunar eclipse took place at the Moon's ascending of the orbit on Sunday, June 5, 1955, with a penumbral eclipse magnitude of 0.62181 (62.181%). A penumbral lunar eclipse takes place when the Moon moves through the faint, outer part of Earth's shadow, the penumbra. This type of eclipse is not as dramatic as other types of lunar eclipses and is often mistaken for a regular Full Moon. The Moon shines because its surface reflects the Sun's rays. A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon and blocks some or all of the Sun's light from reaching the Moon. A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when the Sun, Earth, and the Moon are imperfectly aligned. When this happens, the Earth blocks some of the Sun's light from directly reaching the Moon's surface and covers all or part of the Moon with the outer part of its shadow, also known as the penumbra. Since the penumbra is much fainter than the dark core of the Earth's shadow, the umbra, a penumbral eclipse of the Moon is often difficult to tell apart from a normal Full Moon. Occurring only 0.5 days after apogee (Apogee on June 5, 1955), the moon's apparent diameter was 6.5% smaller than average (1888 arcseconds).

Visibility
The penumbral eclipse was visible in Asia, Australia, Pacific, seen rising over Africa/western Indian Ocean and setting over the Pacific.

A partial lunar eclipse took place on Saturday, May 3, 1958. This was the first partial lunar eclipse of Saros cycle 140. While technically a partial eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the Earth's umbral shadow, which may have been very difficult to observe in practice; though a shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse. The partial eclipse lasted for 21 minutes exactly. 0.919% of the Moon was in umbral shadow on Saturday, 3 May 1958.

Johnson Stadium at Doubleday Field is a baseball venue located on the campus of the United States Military Academy, in West Point, New York.  It is the home of the Army Black Knights baseball team.

History
Doubleday Field was named after Abner Doubleday, a member of the West Point Class of 1842. The field was dedicated in May 1939, which was celebrated by the American League and National League as the centennial year of baseball.

The field hosted the 2012 Patriot League baseball tournament Championship Series, in which Army defeated Holy Cross two games to one.

1996 renovation
After an extensive renovation, the new Johnson Stadium at Doubleday Field was formally dedicated on September 13, 1996. The project included new locker rooms, training rooms, clubhouse facilities, and 880 fixed chair-back seats.

Cadets
Along the visitors bullpen there is usually a group of present and former cadets from the United States Military Academy, who are known to give opposing teams (and umpires) a hard time.

Sights
Johnson Stadium is placed in the heart of West Point. Behind right field you can see the library and other buildings, and behind left field is Cullum Hall.

In 2012, college baseball writer Eric Sorenson ranked the facility as the third best setting in Division I baseball.

The Twentieth Army Corps () was a formation of the Imperial Russian Army that was first raised in 1899, and most famous for fighting on the Eastern Front in World War I, most notably during the Second Battle of the Masurian Lakes. Before World War I, the 20th Corps was stationed in the Vilna Military District with its headquarters in Riga. At the outbreak of the war, the corps consisted of two infantry divisions and a number of independent battalions and brigades. Many Lithuanians served in this unit with the 28th Division having particularly many Lithuanians, especially in the 109th and 111th Infantry Regiments. Some regiments in this Corps were 80% Latvian. The corps was demobilized in April 1917.

Formation
In 1899, the corps was formed from the 29th and 45th Infantry Divisions. It was under the command of Lieutenant general Richard Troyanovich Meves.

World War I
During the Second Battle of the Masurian Lakes, the 20th Army Corps was led by General Pavel Illyich Bulgakov. On February 7, in the middle of a snowstorm, Fritz von Below's German Eighth Army launched a surprise attack, advancing  within one week. They inflicted severe casualties on the Imperial Russian Army, resulting in its disorderly withdrawal with many of its soldiers being imprisoned. The greatest loss came when the 20th Army Corps was surrounded by the German Tenth Army in the Augustów Forest. Although many fought their way out, the Corps' remnants surrendered on February 21. A large number of Latvian soldiers were killed, wounded or captured during this battle. This influenced the decision of the Imperial Russian Army to establish the Latvian Riflemen.

Composition
Shortly before the outbreak of World War I, on 1 January 1913, the 20th Army Corps comprised the following units:

At different times during the war, the 20th Corps was part of several different field armies, including the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 10th.

Commanders

The 20th corps was led by the following commanders throughout its existence:

Park Lawn Cemetery is a large cemetery in the Etobicoke district of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It currently has around 22,000 graves. It is managed by the Park Lawn Limited Partnership, which also runs five other cemeteries in Toronto. The cemetery offers ground burials and a mausoleum for above-ground interment and cremation urns. It is located south of Bloor Street, west of the Humber River.

Park Lawn Cemetery & Mausoleum opened in 1892 as Humbervale Cemetery and was owned by local farmers in the area. It was sold in 1912 and again in 1915 to Park Lawn Cemetery Company, and was renamed to the current name. In 1999, Park Lawn opened Paradise Mausoleum; phase two of Paradise Mausoleum was completed in 2007.

Controversy arose in 1995 when the company re-zoned a section of the cemetery to permit construction of a condominium building. While the building was strongly opposed by some who had purchased lots, or had residents buried there, the Ontario Municipal Board approved the project. The cemetery has twice been attacked by vandals, once in 1990 and again in 2006. Both times several youths were convicted of damaging or toppling several hundred stones.

Notable interments
The cemetery contains 96 war graves of Commonwealth service personnel, 19 from World War I and 67 from World War II.

The Wilson–Kautz Raid was a cavalry operation in south central Virginia in late June 1864, during the American Civil War. Occurring early in the Richmond-Petersburg Campaign, the raid was conducted by Union cavalry under Brigadier Generals James H. Wilson and August Kautz, who were ordered to cut railroads between Lynchburg, Virginia, and the vital Confederate rail supply center at Petersburg. While the raid had the intended effect of disrupting Confederate rail communications for several weeks, the raiding force lost much of its artillery, all of its supply train, and almost a third of the original force, mostly to Confederate capture.

Background
Immediately following the Overland Campaign, Union Army commander Lt. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant proposed to encircle both the Confederate capitol at Richmond and its strategic supply center ten miles south at Petersburg. While infantry began the entrenchment activities of investment, Grant determined to take advantage of new positions to launch light operations with the objective of disrupting rail activity.

On June 22, 5,000 Union cavalry and 16 artillery pieces were pulled from the siege of Petersburg and sent, under the command of Brig. Gens. James H. Wilson and  August V. Kautz, to destroy the lines of supply.

Opposing forces

Battles
Battle of Staunton River Bridge (June 25, 1864)
Despite pursuit and harassment from Confederate cavalry under the command of Maj. Gen. W.H.F. "Rooney" Lee, the Union cavalry succeeded in destroying 60 miles of railway in the first three days. Approaching the bridge over the Staunton River, Union scouts saw what appeared to be Confederate reinforcements arriving by railcar, but was instead part of an elaborate ruse intended to delay attack from the rapidly advancing Union cavalry force. Confederate detachment commander Captain Benjamin L. Farinholt utilized the time to assemble a force of "Old Men and Young Boys" drawn from neighboring counties which included regulars, reservists, local volunteers and six cannon. When the expected Union cavalry charge finally occurred, Farinholt's force, deployed in prepared positions, repulsed the superior force. A few hours later, Lee's pursuing cavalry caught up with Wilson's rear guard. Despite the earlier success, Kautz was unable to destroy the railroad bridge, and the force turned back to the east.

Battle of Sappony Church (June 28, 1864)
After more than a week of continuous operation in enemy-held territory, Wilson's and Kautz's brigades crossed the Nottoway River, reached the Stony Creek Depot on the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad and were within ten miles of friendly lines. Before they reached Stony Creek, they met an attack from Maj. Gen. Wade Hampton's cavalry division astride their path. Lee's cavalry brigade again caught the Union force in the rear, and the Federals were forced northward toward the crossing at Ream's Station.

First Battle of Ream's Station (June 29, 1864)
The exhausted Union raiders had moved toward Ream's Station expecting it to be in friendly hands, but finding themselves almost surrounded and under attack by Confederate infantry under Brig. Gen. William Mahone and Lee's relentless pursuit, brigade commanders Wilson and Kautz were forced to abandon their artillery, burn their remaining supply wagons and, separated, attempt breakouts eastward toward Union forces under Maj. Gen. Benjamin F. Butler. Kautz's brigade moved cross country toward the southeast, where it met friendly lines after sundown. After suffering heavy casualties, Wilson's brigade withdrew to the southwest, circling eastward again to recross the Nottoway River and finally northward to safety at Light House Point on July 2.

Aftermath
Along with the arguable Union loss at the Jerusalem Plank Road, the raid's partial failure added to frustrations for Grant, Lincoln, and the Northern populace in spite of pinning Lee into a defensive position at Petersburg, and set the stage for Jubal Early's raid on Washington two weeks later.

Vučedol () in Croatia, is an archeological site, an elevated ground on the right bank of the River Danube, which also forms the border with Serbia. Vučedol became the eponym of the eneolithic Vučedol culture.

It is estimated that the site had once been home to about 3,000 inhabitants, making it one of the largest and most important European centers of its time.

Artifacts from the Vučedol site are located in the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb, and the City museum of Vukovar. The site itself hosts the Vučedol Culture Museum since 2015.

Due to extremely favourable strategic position, Vučedol has always been open to colonization. During the Copper Age, the settlement extended across most of the present-day archaeological site, covering an area of approximately . The site is considerably larger than contemporary sites which indicates that it must have been a regional economic and social center. Some of the most important archaeological discoveries belonging to the Vučedol culture have been made at this site.

Archaeological research has confirmed finds of Baden culture, Vučedol culture as well as Kostolac culture on the site of Vučedol.

The highest part of the site at Vučedol was separated from the rest of the settlement by two parallel ditches. These ditches enclosed a large rectangular structure that was considerably larger than the houses located in surrounding residential areas, and this area also produced the only evidence of copper smelting on the site. Some scholars had argued that this part of the settlement may have been occupied by a local elite that exercised control not only over Vučedol but also over the production and exchange of precious goods and that dominated the smaller settlements in the area.

The site is located roughly  downstream from the city of Vukovar. During the Battle of Vukovar in 1991, the Vučedol site was destroyed by being used as a firing base for the Serbian Yugoslav People's Army artillery and tanks in the three-month bombardment of Vukovar. The site was since restored and the Vučedol Culture Museum established on the grounds.

A penumbral lunar eclipse took place on Wednesday, February 21, 1951. This was 6.4 days after the Moon reached apogee.

Grazing penumbral eclipse
The magnitude of the eclipse was 0.007 or a miss depending on definitions of the penumbral shadow is defined. Bao-Lin Lui's Canon of lunar eclipses list it as the last eclipse of a saros cycle, with magnitude 0.007, while NASA lists February 10, 1933, as the final series event, with this one missing the shadow.

As seen from the lunar south pole the sun missing the sphere of the earth, excluding the atmosphere.

A total lunar eclipse took place on Sunday, July 26, 1953.

The Moon passed through the very center of the Earth's shadow. While the visual effect of a total lunar eclipse is variable, the Moon may have been stained a deep orange or red colour at maximum eclipse. This was a great spectacle for everyone who saw it from Australia as well as parts of Asia, Korea, New Zealand and Hawaii. The partial lunar eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 35 minutes 42 seconds in total.
With an umbral lunar eclipse magnitude of 1.8628, this was the largest lunar eclipse of the 20th century. Gamma had a value of only -0.0071. Due to the Moon's relatively large size, totality lasted 100 minutes 42 seconds unlike July 16, 2000 which lasted 106 minutes 25 seconds, the longest since August 13, 1859 (which was only 3 seconds longer). This was the darkest total lunar eclipse in the 20th century.

Visibility
It can all be seen from Australia, is seen rising in East Asia and is seen in North and South America. It is also visible from Korea as well as New Zealand and Hawaii, including Vietnam

Familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FHH) is an inherited condition that can cause hypercalcemia, a serum calcium level typically above 10.2 mg/dL; although uncommon.  It is also known as familial benign hypocalciuric hypercalcemia (FBHH) where there is usually a family history of hypercalcemia which is mild, a urine calcium to creatinine ratio <0.01, and urine calcium <200 mg/day.

Signs and symptoms
Most cases of familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia are asymptomatic. Laboratory signs of FHH include:
 High blood levels of calcium (hypercalcemia)
 A low amount of calcium excreted in the urine (Ca excretion rate < 0.02 mmol/L)
 High blood levels of magnesium (hypermagnesemia)
 High normal to mildly elevated parathyroid hormone

Causes

Types include:

Pathogenesis
Most cases of FHH are associated with loss of function mutations in the calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR) gene, expressed in parathyroid and kidney tissue. These mutations decrease the receptor's sensitivity to calcium, resulting in reduced receptor stimulation at normal serum calcium levels. As a result, inhibition of parathyroid hormone release does not occur until higher serum calcium levels are attained, creating a new equilibrium. This is the opposite of what happens with the CaSR sensitizer, cinacalcet. Functionally, parathyroid hormone (PTH) increases calcium resorption from the bone and increases phosphate excretion from the kidney which increases serum calcium and decreases serum phosphate. Individuals with FHH, however, typically have normal PTH levels, as normal calcium homeostasis is maintained, albeit at a higher equilibrium set point. As a consequence, these individuals are not at increased risk of the complications of hyperparathyroidism.

Another form has been associated with chromosome 3q.

Functions of the calcium-sensing receptor
 Parathyroid gland: mediates negative feedback mechanisms relating to PTH secretion. In normal individuals, PTH secretion decreases with increasing blood calcium levels. Loss of function abnormalities in the CaSR here cause hypercalcemia.
 Kidneys: mediates negative feedback mechanisms relating to calcium reabsorption from the tubular system. In normal individuals, reabsorption of calcium and other electrolytes decreases with increasing blood calcium level. Loss of function abnormalities in the CaSR here contribute to both hypercalcemia and hypocalciuria.

Diagnosis
As most cases of FHH are asymptomatic and benign, the diagnosis of FHH is less likely to be made.
Typically, diagnosis is made in the pursuit of uncovering the etiology of hypercalcemia.
Calcium levels are often in the high normal range or slightly elevated.
Commonly, the parathyroid hormone level is checked and may be slightly elevated or also on the high normal end.
Normally, high calcium should cause low PTH and so this level of PTH is inappropriately high due to the decreased sensitivity of the parathyroid to calcium.
This may be mistaken for primary hyperparathyroidism.
However, evaluation of urine calcium level will reveal a low level of urine calcium.
This too is inappropriate as high serum calcium should result in high urine calcium.
If urine calcium is not checked, this may lead to parathyroidectomy for presumed primary hyperparathyroidism

Additionally as the name implies, there may be a family history of benign hypercalcemia.

Ultimately, diagnosis of familial hypocalciuric hypercalcemia is made—as the name implies—by the combination of low urine calcium and high serum calcium.

Treatment
No treatment is generally required, as bone demineralisation and kidney stones are relatively uncommon in the condition.

The Non-Agricultural Market Access (NAMA) negotiations of the World Trade Organization are based on the Doha Declaration of 2001 that calls for a reduction or elimination in tariffs, particularly on exportable goods of interest to developing countries.  NAMA covers manufacturing products, fuel and mining products, fish and fish  products, and forestry products. These products  are not covered by the Agreement on Agriculture or the negotiations on services.
The WTO considers the NAMA negotiations important because NAMA products account for almost 90% of the world's merchandise exports.

History
NAMA negotiations formally began in January 2002 after the Negotiating Group on Market Access (NGMA) was created.
Pierre-Louis Girard, Chairman of the NGMA, made the first proposal in 2003 before the Cancun Ministerial about the modalities regarding how to take the process forward. However, Girard's proposal faced severe opposition from the developed members because he proposed a smaller tariff cut than the one that the developed member countries had been advocating.
However, by the time the Cancun Ministerial was held in 2003, the second text on NAMA was opposed by the developing countries, especially by the G90 and African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States countries, for moving away from the first NAMA draft.

The deadlock on NAMA negotiations was broken in July 2004, which was the first agreement amongst the countries after the collapse of Cancun. The July 2004 agreement also laid the framework for establishing future modalities.

Main Issues

Tariff Reduction: methodology for reducing tariffs is at the core of the negotiations over NAMA. However, here too the developed and developing countries are divided over the extent to which tariff reductions will be carried out. At the heart of the debate is the reconciliation of the process of tariff reduction and the need to use tariffs as a policy tool, primarily by developing countries interested in protecting emerging industries for developmental purposes.

A tariff binding is a ceiling above which a member country cannot apply a tariff, thus representing the maximum tariff than can be applied by a member.

The NAMA negotiators have opted in favour of a formula approach to tariff reductions rather than a linear approach. The Swiss formula, which has been propounded by the developed countries such as the US, the EC countries, Norway, and Japan, proposes to cut tariffs steeply without taking account of the existing tariff profile of a country.

The modified Swiss formula, on the other hand, takes into account the tariff profile of the countries while carrying out tariff reductions. This approach is supported by the developing countries.

Lobby Groups

NAMA-11
A group of 11 developing countries, called NAMA-11, are working toward strengthening NAMA.
The group has two main objectives: supporting flexibilities for developing countries and balance between NAMA and other areas under negotiation.
Member countries of NAMA-11 are Argentina, Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Brazil, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Namibia, Philippines, South Africa, Pakistan and Tunisia.
