Ius Chasma is a large canyon in the Coprates quadrangle of Mars at 7° south latitude and 85.8° west longitude.  It is about 938 km long and was named after a classical albedo feature name.

Valles Marineris Canyon System

Ius Chasma is a major part of Valles Marineris, the largest canyon system in the solar system; this great canyon would go almost all the way across the United States.  Starting at the west with Noctis Labyrinthus in the Phoenicis Lacus quadrangle, the canyon system ends in the Margaritifer Sinus quadrangle with Capri Chasma and Eos Chasma (in the south).  The word chasma has been designated by the International Astronomical Union to refer to an elongate, steep-sided depression.  Valles Marineris was discovered by and named for the Mariner 9 mission.  Moving east from Noctis Labyrinthus, the canyon splits into two troughs, Tithonium and Ius Chasma in the south.  In the middle of the system are very wide valleys of Ophir Chasma (north), Candor Chasma, and Melas Chasma (south).  Going farther to the east, one comes to Coprates Chasma.  At the end of Coprates Chasma, the valley gets wider to  form Capri Chasma in the north and Eos Chasma in the south.  The walls of the canyons often contain many layers.  The floors of some of the canyons contain large deposits of layered materials.  Some researchers believe that the layers were formed when water once filled the canyons.  The canyons are deep as well as long.  In places they are 8-10 kilometers deep.  (For comparison, the Earth's Grand Canyon is only 1.6 kilometers deep.)

Layers

Images of rocks in the canyon walls almost always show layers. Some layers appear tougher than others.  In the image below of Ganges Chasma layers, as seen by HiRISE, one can see that the upper, light-toned deposits are eroding much faster than the lower darker layers.  Some cliffs on Mars show a few darker layers standing out and often breaking into large pieces; these are thought to be hard volcanic rock instead of soft ash deposits. Because of its closeness to the Tharsis volcanic region, the rock layers may be made of layer after layer of lava flows, probably mixed with deposits of volcanic ash that fell out of the air following big eruptions. It is likely the rock strata in the walls preserve a long geological history of Mars.  Dark layers may be due to dark lava flows.  The dark volcanic rock basalt is common on Mars.  However, light-toned deposits may have resulted from rivers, lakes, volcanic ash, or wind blown deposits of sand or dust.  The Mars Rovers found light-toned rocks to contain sulfates.  Probably having been formed in water, sulfate deposits are of great interest to scientists because they may contain traces of ancient life.

Sustained precipitation

Research, in the January 2010 issue of Icarus, described strong evidence for sustained precipitation in the area around Ius Chasma. The types of minerals there are associated with water.  Also, the high density of small branching channels indicate a great deal of precipitation because they are similar to stream channels on the Earth.

Many places on Mars show channels of different sizes.  There may be various origins for the water that produced channels.  In some places, it seems that sapping was involved.  Here around Ius Chasma, there is evidence for precipitation.  If this is true, climate models may need to be modified because some models show that Mars may have been too cold for much liquid water. Many of these channels probably carried water, at least for a time.  The climate of Mars has undergone cycles.  It has been known for some time that Mars undergoes many large changes in its tilt or obliquity because its two small moons lack the gravity to stabilize it, as the Moon stabilizes Earth; at times the tilt of Mars has even been greater than 80 degrees

Service Product Management deals with managing a service product across its complete life cycle.  This organizational function is equally common between Business-to-business as well as Business-to-consumer businesses. A service product, unlike a hardware or software product, is intangible and manifests itself as pure professional services or as a combination of services with necessary software and/or hardware. The service product management practice ensures management of a profitable service in the marketplace. Service Product manager identifies profitable service space, packages services in a productized form and delivers the same to the market. The function is a core service business management function and is a mix of sales and marketing functions. The function interfaces with various organizational groups like Strategy, Planning, Financial Controls /Management Accounting, Sales, Marketing Communications etc.

Functions of a Service Product Manager

According to author Linda Gorchels, the functions of a service product manager are:

 Service Idea Generation/Management - The function deals with capturing market's unmet and/or under-served needs, filtering the ideas based on business viability, business feasibility and potential, scale-ability, company strategy, and capital rate of return considerations. The end result is a potential set of market feasibility and market features captured in a marketing requirement document.
 Service Product Creation - Potentially saleable service features are captured and productized. That means creation of necessary product documentation like executive materials, service product document, technical services document, service scope etc.
 Service Sales Support - Service product management supports service sales by providing accurate resource estimate and in the right mix to provide an efficient product cost base on which to baseline the customer pricing.
 Demand Supply Planning - Services profitability management by supporting balance between service demand and supply of necessary service resources.
 Business Management System Support - Efficient management of service product cost and revenues according to service contract and incurred costs. The same is generally needs a service product manager to provide product data management for Enterprise resource planning systems.
 Marketing and Market Communications - Industry event participation, press release, consensus building, delivering service messaging through various available marketing channels.
 Knowledge Management - Manage the knowledge management process and best practices for the service.
 Service Ramp Down - Manage the decision process of ramping down service product, and executing the service ramp down thus ending the service product management process.

In a quantum field theory, charge screening can restrict the value of the observable "renormalized" charge of a classical theory. If the only resulting value of the renormalized charge is zero, the theory is said to be "trivial" or noninteracting. Thus, surprisingly, a classical theory that appears to describe interacting particles can, when realized as a quantum field theory, become a "trivial" theory of noninteracting free particles. This phenomenon is referred to as quantum triviality. Strong evidence supports the idea that a field theory involving only a scalar Higgs boson is trivial in four spacetime dimensions, but the situation for realistic models including other particles in addition to the Higgs boson is not known in general. Nevertheless, because the Higgs boson plays a central role in the Standard Model of particle physics, the question of triviality in Higgs models is of great importance.

This Higgs triviality is similar to the Landau pole problem in quantum electrodynamics, where this quantum theory may be inconsistent at very high momentum scales unless the renormalized charge is set to zero, i.e., unless the field theory has no interactions. The Landau pole question is generally considered to be of minor academic interest for quantum electrodynamics because of the inaccessibly large momentum scale at which the inconsistency appears. This is not however the case in theories that involve the elementary scalar Higgs boson, as the momentum scale at which a "trivial" theory exhibits inconsistencies may be accessible to present experimental efforts such as at the LHC. In these Higgs theories, the interactions of the Higgs particle with itself are posited to generate the masses of the W and Z bosons, as well as lepton masses like those of the electron and muon. If realistic models of particle physics such as the Standard Model suffer from triviality issues, the idea of an elementary scalar Higgs particle may have to be modified or abandoned.

The situation becomes more complex in theories that involve other particles however. In fact, the addition of other particles can turn a trivial theory into a nontrivial one, at the cost of introducing constraints. Depending on the details of the theory, the Higgs mass can be bounded or even predictable. These quantum triviality constraints are in sharp contrast to the picture one derives at the classical level, where the Higgs mass is a free parameter.

Triviality and the renormalization group

Modern considerations of triviality are usually formulated in terms of the real-space renormalization group, largely developed by Kenneth Wilson and others. Investigations of triviality are usually performed in the context of lattice gauge theory. A deeper understanding of the physical meaning and generalization of the renormalization process, which goes beyond the dilatation group of conventional renormalizable theories, came from condensed matter physics. Leo P. Kadanoff's paper in 1966 proposed the "block-spin" renormalization group. The blocking idea is a way to define the components of the theory at large distances as aggregates of components at shorter distances.

This approach covered the conceptual point and was given full computational substance in Wilson's extensive important contributions. The power of Wilson's ideas was demonstrated by a constructive iterative renormalization solution of a long-standing problem, the Kondo problem, in 1974, as well as the preceding seminal developments of his new method in the theory of second-order phase transitions and critical phenomena in 1971. He was awarded the Nobel prize for these decisive contributions in 1982.

In more technical terms, let us assume that we have a theory described by a certain function  of the state variables  and a certain set of coupling constants . This function may be a partition function, an action, a Hamiltonian, etc. It must contain the
whole description of the physics of the system.

Now we consider a certain blocking transformation of the state variables ,
the number of  must be lower than the number of . Now let us try to rewrite the  function only in terms of the . If this is achievable by a certain change in the parameters, , then the theory is said to be renormalizable. The most important information in the RG flow are its fixed points. The possible macroscopic states of the system, at a large scale, are given by this set of fixed points. If these fixed points correspond to a free field theory, the theory is said to be trivial. Numerous fixed points appear in the study of lattice Higgs theories, but the nature of the quantum field theories associated with these remains an open question.

Historical background

The first evidence of possible triviality of quantum field theories was obtained by Landau, Abrikosov, and Khalatnikov by finding the following relation of the observable charge  with the "bare" charge ,

where  is the mass of the particle, and  is the momentum cut-off. If  is finite, then  tends to zero in the limit of infinite cut-off .

In fact, the proper interpretation of Eq.1 consists in its inversion, so that  (related to the length scale ) is chosen to give a correct value of ,

The growth of  with  invalidates Eqs. () and () in the region  (since they were obtained for ) and the existence of the "Landau pole" in Eq.2 has no physical meaning.

The actual behavior of the charge  as a function of the momentum scale  is determined by the full Gell-Mann–Low equation

which gives Eqs.(),() if it is integrated under conditions  for  and  for , when only the term with  is retained in the right hand side.

The general behavior of  relies on the appearance of the function . According to the classification by Bogoliubov and Shirkov, there are three qualitatively different situations:

The latter case corresponds to the quantum triviality in the full theory (beyond its perturbation context), as can be seen by reductio ad absurdum. Indeed, if  is finite, the theory is internally inconsistent. The only way to avoid it, is to tend  to infinity, which is possible only for .

Conclusions

As a result, the question of whether the Standard Model of particle physics is nontrivial remains a serious unresolved question. Theoretical proofs of triviality of the pure scalar field theory exist, but the situation for the full standard model is unknown. The implied constraints on the standard model have been discussed.

The Battle of Vilnius, Wilno, or Vilna was an attack by Russian and Cossack forces on Vilnius, the capital of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania within the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, that occurred on 8 August 1655 during the Russo-Polish War (1654–67). The Polish–Lithuanian forces under the leadership of Great Hetman Janusz Radziwiłł were defeated by the Russian army of Alexis of Russia. It was the first time that a foreign power managed to capture the Vilnius Castle Complex. The six-year Muscovite occupation that followed resulted in a major depopulation and a decline of the city for many years to come. The defeat was one of the reasons Janusz Radziwiłł and several other Lithuanian magnates surrendered the Grand Duchy to Sweden at the Union of Kėdainiai.

Battle
The Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth was invaded by large Russian (starting the Russo-Polish War (1654–67) in July 1654) and Swedish armies (starting the Swedish Deluge in July 1655). When a large Russian army approached Vilnius, hetman Janusz Radziwiłł could muster just 5,000 to 7,000 men. The morale was further damaged by the order of king John II Casimir Vasa to royal troops (about 5,000 men) to retreat to Marienburg. Lithuanian commanders hetman Janusz Radziwiłł and treasurer Wincenty Korwin Gosiewski could not agree on defense. City residents began hasty evacuations. Most valued treasures, including the coffin of Saint Casimir, main books of Lithuanian Metrica, and valuables from Vilnius Cathedral, were transported outside the city.

Radziwiłł took up defensive position on the northern shore of the Neris river near the present-day Green Bridge to cover the evacuations. The battle started around 6 a.m. and lasted the whole day. The Lithuanians managed to capture three Russian flags. At night, the Lithuanian army split into two groups that retreated to Vilkaviškis and to Kėdainiai. The garrison of the Vilnius Castle Complex surrendered two days later.

Aftermath and plunder
The invading forces plundered the city and murdered its inhabitants for several days. A fire consumed part of the city. In particular, the Jewish quarter was burned by the Cossacks and many Jews were killed. According to an eyewitness, the fire lasted 17 days and the death toll exceeded 20,000 people. However, those are exaggerated numbers. All palaces were looted and only four churches were spared. The invaders not only took valuables such as furniture or silverware, but also smashed altars, desecrated graves (including silver sarcophagus of the Sapieha family), tore down decorative elements (such as marble columns of the Radziwiłł Palace). The Palace of the Grand Dukes of Lithuania fell into ruins and was rebuilt only in 2000s. Some scholars have suggested that certain relics, as well as the body of Vytautas the Great, were lost during the plunder of Vilnius Cathedral. Tsar Alexis of Russia arrived at the city on 14 August. He could not find suitable accommodations in the city and instead built a large tent in . He proclaimed himself the Grand Duke of Lithuania.

Den Kongelige Gæst () is an opera in one act by Hakon Børresen; the libretto is by Svend Leopold, and is based on a story by Henrik Pontoppidan. The opera was first given on 15 November 1919, at the Royal Danish Theatre, and has since proven to be among the most popular of Danish operas.

The story plays out an evening in a doctor's home on the Jutland peninsula around 1900. Dr. Høyer and his wife are expecting guests for a dress ball. However, all the guests decline at the last moment, and Dr. Høyer is irritated, but slightly relieved. Instead, the family receives a surprise visitor, the unknown gentleman Prince Carnival, who acts in a free and easy manner, playing the piano, talking with Dr. Hoyer's wife, and suggesting to the couple to carry on with the party.

Duration: 1 hour

Recording
The opera has received only two recording:
 The Royal Guest Stig Fogh Andersen, tenor, Edith Guillaume, mezzo-soprano, Tina Kiberg, soprano, Lise-Lotte Nielsen, soprano  Guido Paevatalu, baritone. Odense Symphony Orchestra Tamás Vetö conductor

Tithonium Chasma is a major part of the largest canyon system in the solar system; this great canyon would go almost all the way across the United States. The name for the whole system of canyons is Valles Marineris.

Falmouth is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP) in Missaukee County in the U.S. state of Michigan. The community is located within Clam Union Township. Its population was 183 at the 2020 census.

History
It began as a lumbering settlement and was first known as Pinhook. A post office named Falmouth was established on December 18, 1871, with Eugene W. Watson as the first postmaster. In 1873, Falmouth nearly became the county seat, losing to Reeder (now Lake City) by one vote. John Koopman built a store in 1879, and in 1881 bought the village plat, along with its saw, shingle and grist mill.

Geography
Falmouth is in southern Missaukee County, in the northwest corner of Clam Union Township. It is  by road southeast of Lake City, the county seat, and  northeast of McBain.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the Falmouth CDP has an area of , all of if recorded as land. The Clam River, a south-flowing tributary of the Muskegon River, runs along the southwest edge of the community.

Demographics

Transportation
The main roads that provide access to Falmouth are Prosper Road (to the east), 7 Mile Road (to the northeast), Forward Road (to the north and south), and Falmouth Road (to the west.

Swahilization or Swahilisation refers to one of two practices:
 the cultural assimilation of local peoples in Southeast Africa into the Swahili people and their culture.
 the post-independence promotion of the Swahili language by the governments of Southeast African former colonies as a national and official language, alongside a greater cultural assimilation policy of Africanization (see Julius Nyerere and Ujamaa).
Swahili was the language spoken throughout the coastal tribes of Eastern Tanzania before the arrival of the European settlers. During the 1800s, the slave trades led by Arab merchants led Swahili to become a 50% derivative from Arabic.

In the 1960s, the new republic of Tanzania replaced all English education content in elementary schools by Swahili content in a move to erase the colonial past of the country. The middle schools and up were supposed to do the same by the year 2000. Julius Nyerere, who initiated this policy, translated himself Shakespeare's Julius Caesar and The Merchant of Venice in Swahili. This trend was also picked up in the USA, favored by the rise of the Black Power movement.

By the 1990s, the Swahilization of the Tanzanian education system did not really happen, English remaining a dominant academic language, and many reforms were abandoned. In the country's justice courts, trials were led in Swahili but the archives were maintained in English. The mix of Swahili and English in the country's spoken languages was called Kiswengli (Kiswahili-English). On a scholar level, many scientific words do not exist in the Swahili language. By the 1990s, 8,000 new Swahili technical words were introduced, but ill-spread throughout the academic system. The Swahilization of the country may have isolated it from the international marketplace during the 1970s and 1980s.

By the early 2000s, Kiswahili started to be used intra-group in Kenya, a sign that the country's Swahili-based lingua franca was starting to emerge as a dominant language. 2010 studies have shown that, in Tanzania, Swahili became predominant in the regions that traditionally spoke Matengo.

Albertín Aroldis Chapman de la Cruz (; born February 28, 1988) is a Cuban-born American professional baseball relief pitcher for the Texas Rangers of Major League Baseball (MLB). He has previously played in MLB for the Cincinnati Reds, New York Yankees, Chicago Cubs, and Kansas City Royals and in the Cuban National Series for Holguín. Chapman bats and throws left-handed, and is nicknamed the "Cuban Missile" or the "Cuban Flame Thrower".

Chapman pitched for Holguín domestically and internationally for the Cuban national baseball team. He defected from Cuba in 2009 and signed a contract with the Reds in 2010. Chapman made his MLB debut that season. He won the MLB Delivery Man of the Month Award as the best relief pitcher for July 2012, was named to four straight National League All-Star teams from 2012 to 2015. The Reds traded Chapman to the Yankees after the 2015 season, and the Yankees traded Chapman to the Cubs during the 2016 season. With the Cubs, Chapman won Game 7 of the 2016 World Series. He signed with the Yankees after the 2016 season.

On July 11, 2014, Chapman broke the record, previously held by Bruce Sutter, for the most consecutive relief appearances with a strikeout, having struck out at least one batter in 40 consecutive appearances. Chapman's streak began on August 21, 2013, and lasted 49 consecutive games over two seasons, with the 49th and final game being on August 13, 2014. Chapman currently has the record for the fastest recorded pitch speed in MLB history, at , as well as the Guinness World Record for fastest baseball pitch.

Early life
Chapman was born in Holguín, Cuba, on February 28, 1988. He lived in a three-room house with his parents and two sisters. Chapman's father was a boxing trainer and then later worked for the city. His mother did not work outside the home. Chapman's paternal grandparents had emigrated from Jamaica to Cuba in order to get a better education. The Chapmans, whose last name can be traced to English settlers in Jamaica in the late 1600s, were not a prominent family.

A friend of Chapman invited him to join a local baseball team at the age of 15. He began playing as a first baseman until the coach noticed that Chapman could throw well enough to become a pitcher, which Chapman began in 2003.

Professional career

Cuban career

Chapman joined the Holguín Sabuesos of the Cuban National Series League in 2006. In 327 career innings, Chapman compiled a 24–19 win–loss record, a 3.74 earned run average (ERA), and 365 strikeouts. He was used mainly as a starting pitcher, although he made 11 relief appearances in the 2007 season.

Chapman was part of the Cuban national team at the 2007 Pan American Games and the 2009 World Baseball Classic.

Defection and American career
After a failed attempt to defect in the spring of 2008, Chapman reported to Havana to meet with Cuban president Raúl Castro who gave him a conditional reprieve, suspending him for the remainder of the National Series season and also keeping him off Cuba's national team for the 2008 Summer Olympics but allowing him to return to the National Series and play in the WBC in 2009.

Chapman successfully defected from Cuba while in Rotterdam, Netherlands where the Cuban national team was participating in the World Port Tournament on July 1, 2009; Chapman walked out the front door of the team hotel and entered into an automobile driven by an acquaintance. Gerardo Concepción defected from the Cuban national team in the same tournament. Chapman eventually established residency in Andorra and petitioned MLB to be granted free agent status.

Minor leagues

On January 10, 2010, Chapman signed a six-year contract with the Cincinnati Reds worth $30.25 million. The Associated Press reported that the signing bonus totals $10.25 million, paid annually over 11 years, with an additional bonus if he became eligible for salary arbitration in 2012 or 2013.

Chapman began the 2010 season assigned to the Triple-A Louisville Bats, and made his professional debut with the Louisville Bats on Sunday, April 11, in Toledo against the Mud Hens, where he pitched  innings, giving up one unearned run, while striking out nine. Chapman made 13 starts with Louisville, pitching to a 4.11 ERA, and pitched to a 2.40 ERA after the team used him as a relief pitcher.

Cincinnati Reds (2010–2015)

2010 season
Chapman made his Major League debut August 31, 2010, in the eighth inning against the Milwaukee Brewers; his first pitch was clocked at  as a called strike (which was promptly tossed to the dugout by catcher Ryan Hanigan, to be saved). In nine pitches he retired the side. He recorded his first Major League win on September 1 after pitching an inning of relief against the Brewers.
Chapman threw the fastest pitch recognized by MLB on September 24, 2010, at Petco Park in San Diego, California. It was clocked at 105.1 mph to Tony Gwynn Jr. in the eighth inning.

In Game 2 of the 2010 NLDS against the Philadelphia Phillies, Chapman allowed three unearned runs due to miscues of the outfielders. He got his first career postseason loss and the Reds lost the division series to the Phillies in a three-game sweep.

2011 season

Chapman served solely as a relief pitcher in 2011, appearing in 54 regular season games and finishing the season with a 3.60 ERA. He also struck out 71 batters in just 50 innings of work that season.

2012 season
Chapman was due to be introduced as a starter for the 2012 season, but preseason injuries to closer Ryan Madson and middle relievers Bill Bray and Nick Masset led manager Dusty Baker to put Chapman in the setup role. Interim closer Sean Marshall struggled early in the season, and Chapman was given the closer role in late May.

On July 1, 2012, Chapman was named to his first All-Star Game. Chapman won the MLB Delivery Man of the Month Award for July 2012, in which he recorded 13 saves while not allowing a run in  innings while striking out 31 batters—more than 60% of the batters he faced. It was the third month of the season in which he did not allow a single run. He was named the August Delivery Man of the Month. Chapman finished the 2012 season with a 1.51 ERA and 38 saves in 43 chances, recording 122 strikeouts and 23 walks in  innings.

2013 season
In March 2013, it was announced that Chapman would be the closer for the Cincinnati Reds. He was an All-Star selection for the second season in a row. He finished the 2013 year with 38 saves, a 4–5 record, 112 strikeouts, and a 2.54 ERA.

2014 season
During a spring training game against the Kansas City Royals on March 19, 2014, Chapman was struck in the head by a line drive from Salvador Pérez. The spring-training game between the Reds and the Royals was ended at that point with Kansas City leading 8–3. Chapman underwent surgery to fix a skull fracture above his left eye. A metal plate was inserted into his head to stabilize the fracture.

Chapman began the 2014 season on the 15-day disabled list. He was activated from the disabled list on May 10. Chapman recorded his 100th save against the Arizona Diamondbacks on July 29, 2014, becoming the eighth-fastest pitcher to reach the milestone. In the 20-pitch appearance, Chapman threw 15 fastballs, all of which were above 100 mph. On September 23, 2014, Chapman recorded his 100th strikeout in his 51st inning pitched of the season, making him the fastest pitcher ever to reach that milestone. In 54 appearances, Chapman produced 106 strikeouts with 36 saves going 0–3 with an ERA of 2.00.

2015 season
Chapman and the Reds agreed to a one-year, $8.05 million contract on February 13, 2015. Chapman was selected to the 2015 MLB All-Star Game. He pitched a scoreless ninth inning and struck out the side on 14 pitches, 12 of which were recorded at 100 mph or greater. His fastest pitch in 2016 was 103.9 mph, best in MLB. His four-seam fastball had the highest average speed of any MLB pitcher's pitches in 2015, at 100.0 mph. In the 2015 season, Chapman made 65 relief appearances with a 4–4 record, a 1.63 ERA, and 33 saves.

New York Yankees (2016)

On December 28, 2015, Chapman was traded to the New York Yankees. Cincinnati received four minor league players including right-handed pitchers Caleb Cotham and Rookie Davis, and infielders Eric Jagielo and Tony Renda in the exchange. On January 11, 2016, manager Joe Girardi named Chapman the team's new closer. He avoided arbitration on February 12, 2016, by agreeing to a one-year contract worth $11.325 million.

MLB suspended Chapman for the first 30 games of the season due to an off-season personal conduct policy violation related to domestic violence. He made his first appearance for the Yankees on May 9, 2016, striking out two and allowing a run as the Yankees won 6–3 over the Kansas City Royals. On July 18 against the Orioles, Chapman threw for  twice in the top of the ninth inning, averaging  with his fastball.

Chicago Cubs (2016)

On July 25, 2016, the Yankees traded Chapman to the Chicago Cubs for Gleyber Torres, Billy McKinney, Adam Warren, and Rashad Crawford. In an interview with ESPN, Chapman stated he was thrilled that the Cubs went after him, especially considering the recent success of Héctor Rondón. Chapman made his first appearance as a member of the Cubs on July 27, pitching a 1–2–3 ninth and striking out two batters in a non-save situation. His fastest pitch in 2016 was 105.1 miles an hour, best in MLB. His four-seam fastball had the highest average speed of any MLB pitcher's pitches in 2016, at 100.9 mph, and his two-seam fastball had the third-highest average speed, at 100.4 mph.

Chapman made three saves in four opportunities in the 2016 National League Division Series against the San Francisco Giants to tie and set new Division Series records respectively; Wade Davis tied his record in the 2017 National League Division Series, but Davis did it with only three opportunities.

Chapman made four appearances during the 2016 National League Championship Series (NLCS) against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Chapman blew a save opportunity during the first game of the NLCS, but the Cubs rallied back and Chapman remained in the game to earn the win. He pitched the final  innings of Game 6 to secure the Cubs' first pennant since 1945.

Chapman's workload in the 2016 World Series escalated with the Cubs facing elimination at the hands of the Cleveland Indians. Down 3–1 in the series, Chapman pitched through the seventh, eighth, and ninth innings of Game 5, allowing only one hit and preserving the Cubs' 3–2 lead. He was called upon again in the seventh and eighth innings of Game 6, where he allowed one hit and one run en route to a 9–3 victory. Chapman appeared the next day to close out Game 7 with a 6–3 lead in the bottom of the eighth inning, but blew the save opportunity, allowing Cleveland to tie the game on a two-run homer by Rajai Davis. Chapman pitched through the bottom of the ninth to send the game into extra innings. The Cubs tallied the game-winning run in the 10th inning, making Chapman the winning pitcher and giving him his first World Series title.

Second stint with New York Yankees (2017–2022)
On December 15, 2016, Chapman signed a five-year, $86 million contract to return to the Yankees. This was the largest contract given to a relief pitcher as of 2017.

On May 14, 2017, Chapman was placed on the 10-day disabled list due to rotator cuff inflammation in his left shoulder. Although MRIs revealed no structure damage, Chapman was ruled out for at least two weeks. On June 18, the Yankees activated Chapman from the DL and he pitched that afternoon against the Oakland A's.

On August 13, Chapman gave up a home run to Rafael Devers of the Boston Red Sox. The pitch was clocked at 103 mph, making it the fastest pitch hit for a home run in the Statcast era (breaking Kurt Suzuki's home run off of a Chapman 102 mph pitch the previous year). It was also Chapman's first home run given up to a left-handed batter since Luke Scott of the Baltimore Orioles did so in 2011. Later that month, Chapman gave up only his third home run off a left-hander when Yonder Alonso of the Seattle Mariners hit one of his 101 mph fastballs out. His fastest pitch of 2017 was 104.3 miles an hour, best in MLB. His four-seam fastball had the highest average speed of any MLB pitcher's pitches in 2017, at 99.7 mph.

In 2018 Chapman was elected as an MLB All-Star, representing the American League. On July 13, 2018, he announced that he would skip the All Star Game to rest his knee due to tendinitis. On August 22, Chapman was placed on the 10-day disabled list due to left knee tendinitis. His fastest pitch of 2018 was 104.4 miles an hour, second-best in MLB only to pitches by Jordan Hicks. His sinker had the highest average speed of any MLB pitcher's pitches in 2018, at 100.9 mph. In 2018, he had the lowest swing rate for his in-strike-zone sliders of any pitcher in baseball (42.5%).

In 2019, he was 3–2 with 37 saves and a 2.21 ERA, as in 60 relief appearances he struck out 85 batters in 57.0 innings (13.4 per nine innings). He received the AL Reliever of the Month Award for both May and August. Chapman logged one save in the American League Division Series and one in the American League Championship Series but gave up a walk-off home run to José Altuve with two outs in the ninth inning of Game 6 of the ALCS, eliminating the Yankees from the playoffs.

On July 11, 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, it was reported that Chapman had tested positive for the virus. Manager Aaron Boone announced that he was cleared to return to the team on July 31. Chapman pitched in his first major league game of 2020 on August 17. On September 2, Chapman received a three-game suspension for throwing a pitch at the head of Tampa Bay Rays batter Mike Brosseau. Brosseau later hit a game-winning home run off Chapman in Game 5 of the ALDS, effectively ending the Yankees season. His 100.5 mph-average sinker was the fastest sinker of any major league pitcher for the 2020 season. During the regular season, Chapman recorded a 3.09 ERA and 22 strikeouts in  innings.

On August 26, 2021, Chapman recorded his 300th career save, closing out a 7–6 victory against the Oakland Athletics. On September 30, Chapman recorded his 1,000th strikeout during a game against the Toronto Blue Jays. He struck out George Springer in the bottom of the ninth inning, eventually winning the game 6–2. Chapman finished the 2021 season with 30 saves and a 3.36 ERA. He recorded 97 strikeouts and 38 walks in  innings.

Chapman went on the injured list in May 2022 due to achilles tendinitis and lost the closer role to Clay Holmes. He went on the injured list again in August due to an infection that developed when he got a tattoo. Chapman missed a mandatory workout before the 2022 American League Division Series and was left off the team's postseason roster.

Kansas City Royals (2023)

On January 27, 2023, Chapman signed a one-year contract with the Kansas City Royals. He went 4–2 with 2.45 ERA in 31 appearances with the Royals in 2023.

Texas Rangers (2023–present)
On June 30, 2023, the Royals traded Chapman to the Texas Rangers in exchange for Cole Ragans and Roni Cabrera.

Pitching style

Repertoire
With a three-quarters delivery, Chapman throws four pitches: a four-seam fastball averaging , a slider averaging , a splitter, and a change-up. Since 2018, he also added a sinker that tops out at 102 mph (164.15kph) and averages over 100 mph. His fastball averaged  in 2010, but that declined to  in 2011 and  through August 2012. This more modest speed might have been part of an attempt to better control his fastball. By 2015, Chapman's fastball averaged . That same year, Statcast revealed that Chapman threw the 62 fastest pitches of the season, topping out at .

Chapman's fastball and slider both have extraordinarily high whiff rates—33% for the fastball and 58% for the slider. These have given Chapman a career strikeouts per nine innings rate of 14.66 , second all-time to Craig Kimbrel, and the third-highest career percentage of pitches for swinging strikes (16.5%).

Due to the high velocity of pitches that Chapman throws, before he comes in, the Yankees play a video on the scoreboards showing Chapman's name on fire, and fiery looking videos of him, as high velocity pitches are commonly called "heat."

Scouts worried about his control issues and lack of a solid third pitch, noting that these issues could affect his ability to be a Major League starter, but Chapman's control seemed to improve. After issuing 41 walks in 50 innings the previous season, Chapman walked 23 batters in 2012 over  innings.

Speed records
On September 24, 2010, against the San Diego Padres, Chapman was clocked at , according to PITCHf/x, the fastest pitch ever recorded in Major League Baseball. On July 19, 2016, Chapman matched his previous record of 105.1 mph with a ball to Baltimore's J. J. Hardy. That record was tied by Jordan Hicks on May 20, 2018.

On April 18, 2011, Chapman threw a pitch to Pittsburgh's Andrew McCutchen that the scoreboard at Great American Ball Park clocked at , but the box on Fox Sports Ohio's broadcast listed it at  and the PITCHf/x system calculated a release speed of . The disparity between these speeds has been widely discussed and questioned.

Mechanics
Sports Illustrated writer Joe Posnanski wrote of Chapman, "There is no violence at all in his motion; he's like the anti-Bob Gibson in that way. Just a slow beginning, a fluid motion, and BLAMMO the ball just fires out like the Batmobile rolling out of the cave." A more technical analysis reveals the following:
 Chapman breaks his hands late, so his arm gets involved late;
 He shifts his weight before he breaks his hands;
 Chapman gets low and creates tremendous leg drive;
 At landing, he quickly braces his front leg and hip;
 He also powerfully flexes his trunk forward over his landing knee.
One scout noted that although "[t]here are no obvious flaws in Chapman's delivery ... Chapman has to coordinate a lot of moving parts," which may limit his consistency. Chapman's extreme pitch speed may also pose an injury risk to his pitching arm over time.

Chapman's long and complicated delivery is incredibly taxing on his body. He almost never pitches more than one inning per appearance, which is a major reason for him being used as a formidable closer.

Personal life
When Chapman left Cuba, he left behind his father, mother, two sisters, girlfriend Raidelmis Mendosa Santiestelas, and newborn baby Ashanty Brianna. He reunited with them when he helped them transfer to the United States; the details of how they transferred remain confidential. On June 30, 2014, his son, Atticus Gabriel Chapman, was born in Cincinnati. In May 2012, it was reported that Chapman was being sued for allegedly serving as "an informant for Cuban state authorities after a failed defection attempt and help[ing] turn in another man in order to get back on the country's national baseball team."

On December 7, 2015, news broke that Chapman was involved in an alleged domestic violence incident with his girlfriend in Davie, Florida at his home on October 30, 2015. A pending trade with the Los Angeles Dodgers was put on hold as MLB announced it would investigate the incident as part of its personal conduct policy. In the incident, he was accused of pushing his girlfriend, putting his hands around her neck, and choking her; he subsequently fired eight gunshots. No charges were filed by the police due to inconsistency of the reports and insufficient evidence, and his attorney issued a statement denying the allegations. The trade to the Dodgers was canceled and the Reds traded Chapman to the Yankees three weeks later. Although he was not charged, MLB suspended Chapman for 30 games as a result of his "use of a firearm and the impact of that behavior on his partner," ending May 9, 2016. He was the first player disciplined by the new personal conduct policy enacted in August 2015, which empowered MLB to suspend a player from games without a final sentence.

Chapman became an American citizen in April 2016.

On July 11, 2020, it was announced that Chapman had tested positive for COVID-19. He recovered and returned to baseball activities on August 17, 2020.

Naravas (Old Libyan: Nrbs(h); , ) was a 3rd Century BCE Numidian chief who fought in the Mercenary War, he first joined the rebels, but changed sides in 239 BCE. Naravas is the Greek form of Narbal or Naarbaal.

Alliance with Hamilcar Barca
During the Mercenary War, Naravas had joined the army of Spendius.  During a critical time, he switched his allegiance to Hamilcar Barca of Carthage.

In 239 BC, he arrived at Hamilcar's camp with 2,000 horsemen.  This probably saved the Carthaginian army from destruction. His troops pushed back the mercenaries of Mathos, the Libyan chief, at the Battle of Bagradas River.  After the battle, he took possession of the town of Utica.

Family
Naravas married the third daughter of Hamilcar Barca, the sister of Hannibal. Her name is unknown, but Gustave Flaubert gave her the name Salammbo in his novel of that name.

John William Warde was a 26-year-old American bank clerk from Southampton, New York, who committed suicide on July 26, 1938. He leaped from a window ledge of the 17th floor of the Gotham Hotel at 5th Avenue and 55th Street in Manhattan. The son of a Long Island express agent, his 12-hour dilemma before jumping held 300 New York City Police Department officers at bay. They were afraid of making a bold move that might cause Warde to jump.

Background
John William Warde worked as a bank clerk in Southampton until he survived a suicide attempt with a knife in July 1937 and spent three months in the Central Islip Psychiatric Center. A note on the discharge papers of the asylum in November 1937 declared:

After Warde's discharge, he returned to the home at 25 Willow Street, Southampton, where he lived with his parents.  Eight days before his suicide, Warde was observed on a bridge outside Hampton Bays, New York, staring over the edge into the water. A bridge tender chased him away and contacted the authorities, giving them Warde's license plate number. The police checked on him at his home and spoke with him.

On Tuesday morning, July 26, 1938, after spending a long weekend in Chicago, Warde, his sister Katherine and two friends of the family surnamed Valentine checked in to room 1714 on the 17th floor of the Gotham Hotel in midtown Manhattan. During a conversation, his sister suggested making an appointment for him with a psychiatrist he already had seen.  Her comment apparently upset him. He dashed for a window and then occupied the ledge balancing there from late in the morning until 10:38 pm.

Neither of Warde's parents had joined the group for the trip to Chicago, and neither was in the Gotham Hotel when Warde's sister made the comment that upset him. Their father, John A. Warde, was vacationing in Vermont, contacted by telephone there and told, many hours before his son jumped, about the suicidal gesture.

Chronology of death

400 police officers and NYPD personnel responded to the emergency together with members of the Fire Department and volunteer helpers. Psychiatrist J. C. Presner was called by hotel management to make a plea to Warde, who was believed to be clinically depressed. Presner dropped a half-milligram of Benzedrine in glass after glass of water that Warde drank when NYPD Patrolman Charles V. Glasco handed each to him.  Presner, aware that an apparently dehydrated Warde was repeatedly asking for and drinking water, hoped the successive very small doses of Benzedrine would alleviate his melancholia.  Evidently, they did not.

Patrolman Glasco was a Woodhaven, Queens resident whose NYPD job was in the “First District Traffic Summons Squad,” as the New Yorker (magazine) reported many years later.   At noon, Glasco was helping the NYPD sergeant who supervised him control the traffic jam that already had started outside the Gotham Hotel as a result of numerous pedestrians and motorists trying to look at whatever was going on. Both Glasco and the NYPD sergeant, standing on the street, noticed John Warde’s sister Katherine pleading with him to return to their room while she stuck her head through the window opening near Warde. (Room 1714 was used regularly by a wealthy Southampton, Long Island family surnamed Valentine that had befriended Warde in 1937 following a suicide attempt he had made that year. The room contained only one window.)   Immediately wanting to help, NYPD Patrolman Glasco decided to pose as a civilian and then talk with Warde. The sergeant, agreeing this was a good plan, told Glasco, “You always was a pretty fair actor. It’s worth trying, anyhow. Go on up to Room 1714 and tell the lieutenant I sent you. …”

Donning a bellhop uniform he borrowed from a bellhop in the lobby, Glasco entered Room 1714 and attempted to persuade Warde not to jump by talking to him on-and-off for ten-and-a-half hours. They discussed baseball, ping pong, the merits of night-versus-day picnics, and other subjects. Glasco told Warde that this was his first day on the new job as bellhop, and that if he jumped, it would be bad for business and the Gotham Hotel management would have to fire him. Glasco hoped that his multiple servings of water and cigarettes that Warde consumed would enable himself to get close enough to Warde to grab him. Because Warde insisted upon watching Glasco drink from every glass of water before he himself drank the rest of it, that meant Glasco, too, ingested the half-milligram of Benzedrine that each glass of water contained.

Warde disclosed a secret to Glasco during their time together. Glasco never revealed this secret to anyone, not even many years later, and it is unknown what the secret was. Eventually, Glasco allegedly persuaded Warde to move away from the ledge and return to Room 1714. As Warde was exiting the ledge and re-entering the hotel room, a photographer attempted to photograph Warde, causing him to jump off the ledge.. This was at least the second occasion when Warde felt betrayed by Glasco’s many assurances that he could have privacy were he to change his mind about jumping. Previously, a peculiarly dressed “gaunt” [as described by the New Yorker magazine many years later] man who claimed to be a priest had defied police orders to stay out of Room 1714, and Warde, staring through the open window space after sunset, had seen the strange man and had returned to his precarious position on the ledge.

Warde leaped feet-first at 10:38 pm, crashing into the glass marquee of the 55th Street entrance of the Gotham Hotel. His body smashed to the sidewalk. When he jumped, 10,000 people were gathered at the busy intersection of 55th Street and Fifth Avenue. Collectively, they shouted "Here he comes!" before becoming silent at the moment Warde made his plunge.

Burial
Warde was buried in Cemetery of the Evergreens, Brooklyn, following a private funeral service at the New York and Brooklyn Funeral Home, located at 187 South Oxford Street in Brooklyn. His parents and two friends were present at the service. The service was pushed ahead four hours from a previously arranged time so as to avoid crowds.

Film adaptation
Writer Joel Sayre wrote about the Warde suicide in The New Yorker in an article entitled "That Was New York: The Man on the Ledge", published on April 16, 1949. The story was purchased by Twentieth Century Fox.

The Sayre article was adapted by Fox into the 1951 film Fourteen Hours, with Richard Basehart as the man on the ledge and Paul Douglas as the police officer who tries to talk him out of jumping. As originally shot, the film ended as in reality, with the man jumping to his death. After a preview, this was changed to end with his falling accidentally and grabbing the net to save his life.

The studio changed the title from The Man on the Ledge to Fourteen Hours at the request of Warde's mother, so that the picture would not be as closely identified with her son. Studio chief Darryl F. Zanuck considered changing the setting of the movie to another city for the same reason, but it was ultimately filmed in New York. Various details about Officer Glasco's life were also fictionalized in the film.

Ivan Cvetković (; born 12 February 1981) is a Serbian former professional footballer who played as midfielder.

Club career
While playing for Zvezdara, Cvetković made his First League of FR Yugoslavia debuts in the 2001–02 campaign, the club's first season in the nation's top flight. He subsequently moved to OFK Beograd in the summer of 2002. During his first season with the Romantičari, Cvetković was a first-team regular, making 30 league appearances and scoring two goals.

In the 2005 winter transfer window, Cvetković switched to Javor Ivanjica. He was a regular member of the team that won the 2007–08 Serbian First League with an unbeaten record. In early 2009, Cvetković moved abroad for the first time and joined Russian side Khimki. He scored two goals in 21 games during the 2009 Russian Premier League, as the club suffered relegation.

After a short spell at Javor Ivanjica, Cvetković moved abroad again and signed with Kazakhstan Premier League club Zhetysu in the summer of 2010. He amassed 56 league appearances and scored three goals over the next two years. In August 2012, Cvetković returned to Serbia and joined Jagodina. He helped the club win the Serbian Cup in 2013, their first major trophy ever, and reach the final the very next year. In early 2015, Cvetković made a return to Kazakhstan and his former club Zhetysu. He also played for Okzhetpes in the second half of the year. In early 2016, Cvetković returned to Jagodina.

In the summer of 2016, Cvetković rejoined Javor Ivanjica. In June 2020, Cvetković finished his playing career, after Serbian SuperLiga game between Inđija and Javor.

International career
At international level, Cvetković made one appearance for FR Yugoslavia U21, playing the first half of a 1–2 friendly loss away against Spain U21 in April 2002.

Aureum Chaos is a rough, collapsed region (chaos terrain) in the Margaritifer Sinus quadrangle (MC-19) portion of the planet Mars at approximately 4.4° south latitude and 27° west longitude, it is also in the west of Margaritifer Terra. It is 368 km across and was named after a classical albedo feature name.

The classic name came from one of the first maps of Mars drawn by Schiaparelli who has been called the "Father of Mars."  He called a feature "Aurea Cherso, which translates to the golden peninsula—an ancient name for Malaya.  Aureum is the Latin word for gold.  In chemistry, the symbol for gold is Au from gold's Latin name.

In many places, the canyons of Aureum Chaos are about 1 km deep—a little more than half the depth of the Grand Canyon.  But, Aureum Chaos covers an area about the size of the state of Alabama, almost 20 times larger than the Grand Canyon National Park.

Description

Aureum Chaos is a major canyon system and collapsed area.  Large outflow channels on Mars are believed to be caused by catastrophic discharges of ground water. Many of the channels begin in chaotic terrain, where the ground has apparently collapsed.  In the collapsed section, blocks of undisturbed material can be seen.  The OMEGA experiment on Mars Express discovered  clay minerals (phyllosilicates) in a variety places in Aureum Chaos. Clay minerals need water to form, so the area may once have contained large amounts of water.  Scientists are interested in determining what parts of Mars contained water because evidence of past or present life may be found there. Aureum Chaos is one more piece of evidence that Mars once had great amounts of water.

Monique Adolphe (23 July 1932, Paris – 27 June 2022, Paris, France) is a French scientist and researcher into the field of cell biology. She was one of the pioneers of cell culture in vitro and its applications in alternatives to animal testing. She is an Officier de la Légion d'honneur and has received several other important decorations and distinctions (see below).

Biography
After her pharmacological internship at the Hôtel-Dieu de Paris under Jean Cheymol's supervision in the 1950s, Monique Adolphe orientated, in 1960, her researches in the field of cell culture. With Paul Lechat she was an ardent advocate of alternative methods to animal testing by promoting the use of in vitro techniques, while recognising the limits of these methods.

Much of her research career has been devoted to the study of cartilage and chondrocyte biology. As Research Director of the Laboratory of Cellular Pharmacology of the École pratique des hautes études until 1997, she trained dozens of young scientists in cell culture methods. In 1986 she founded the Société de pharmaco-toxicologie cellulaire ("Society of Cellular Pharmaco-Toxicology") (SPTC).

From 1990 to 1994 she was president of the École pratique des hautes études. On 7 January 2009 she became Chair of the Académie Nationale de Pharmacie ("National Academy of Pharmacy") for one year—the first woman to hold this position since the Academy was created in 1803.

Data center bridging (DCB) is a set of enhancements to the Ethernet local area network communication protocol for use in data center environments, in particular for use with clustering and storage area networks.

Motivation
Ethernet is the primary network protocol in data centers for computer-to-computer communications. However, Ethernet is designed to be a best-effort network that may experience packet loss when the network or devices are busy.

In IP networks, transport reliability under the end-to-end principle is the responsibility of the transport protocols, such as the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). One area of evolution for Ethernet is to add extensions to the existing protocol suite to provide reliability without requiring the complexity of TCP.  With the move to 10 Gbit/s and faster transmission rates, there is also a desire for finer granularity in control of bandwidth allocation and to ensure it is used more effectively.  These enhancements are particularly important to make Ethernet a more viable transport for storage and server cluster traffic. A primary motivation is the sensitivity of Fibre Channel over Ethernet to frame loss. The higher level goal is to use a single set of Ethernet physical devices or adapters for computers to talk to a Storage Area Network, Local Area network and InfiniBand fabric.

Approach
DCB aims, for selected traffic, to eliminate loss due to queue overflow (sometimes called lossless Ethernet) and to be able to allocate bandwidth on links. Essentially, DCB enables, to some extent, the treatment of different priorities as if they were different pipes. To meet these goals new standards are being (or have been) developed that either extend the existing set of Ethernet protocols or emulate the connectivity offered by Ethernet protocols.  They are being (or have been) developed respectively by two separate standards bodies:

 The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Data Center Bridging Task Group of the IEEE 802.1 Working Group
 Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
Enabling DCB broadly on arbitrary networks with irregular topologies and without special routing may cause deadlocks, large buffering delays, unfairness and head-of-line blocking. It was suggested to use DCB to eliminate TCP slow start using approach of TCP-Bolt.

Terminology
Different terms have been used to market products based on data center bridging standards:

 Data Center Ethernet (DCE) was a term trademarked by Brocade Communications Systems in 2007 but abandoned by request in 2008.  DCE referred to Ethernet enhancements for the Data Center Bridging standards, and also including a Layer 2 Multipathing implementation based on the IETF's Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL) standard.
 Convergence Enhanced Ethernet or Converged Enhanced Ethernet (CEE) was defined from 2008 through January 2009 by group of  including Broadcom, Brocade Communications Systems, Cisco Systems, Emulex, HP, IBM, Juniper Networks, QLogic. The ad-hoc group formed to create proposals for enhancements that enable networking protocol convergence over Ethernet, specially Fibre Channel. Proposed specifications to IEEE 802.1 working groups initially included:
 The Priority-based Flow Control (PFC) Version 0 Specification was submitted for use in the IEEE 802.1Qbb project, under the DCB task group of the IEEE 802.1 working group.
 The Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS) Version 0 Specification was submitted for use in the IEEE 802.1Qaz project, under the DCB task group of the IEEE 802.1 working group.
 The Data Center Bridging eXchange (DCBX) Version 0 Specification was also submitted for use in the IEEE 802.1Qaz project.

IEEE task group
The following have  been adopted as IEEE standards:

 Priority-based Flow Control (PFC): IEEE 802.1Qbb provides a link-level flow control mechanism that can be controlled independently for each frame priority. The goal of this mechanism is to ensure zero loss under congestion in DCB networks.
 Enhanced Transmission Selection (ETS): IEEE 802.1Qaz provides a common management framework for the assignment of bandwidth to frame priorities.
 Congestion Notification: IEEE 802.1Qau provides end-to-end congestion management for protocols that are capable of transmission rate limiting to avoid frame loss. It is expected to benefit protocols such as TCP that do have native congestion management as it reacts to congestion in a more timely manner.
 Data Center Bridging Capabilities Exchange Protocol (DCBX): a discovery and capability exchange protocol that is used for conveying capabilities and configuration of the above features between neighbors to ensure consistent configuration across the network. This protocol leverages functionality provided by IEEE 802.1AB (LLDP). It is actually included in the 802.1az standard.

Other groups
 The IETF TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) standard provides least cost pair-wise data forwarding without configuration in multi-hop networks with arbitrary topology, safe forwarding even during periods of temporary loops, and support for multipathing of both unicast and multicast traffic. TRILL accomplishes this by using IS-IS (Intermediate System to Intermediate System) link-state routing and by encapsulating traffic using a header that includes a hop count. TRILL supports VLANs and frame priorities. Devices that implement TRILL are called RBridges. RBridges can incrementally replace IEEE 802.1 customer bridges. TRILL Working Group Charter
 IEEE 802.1aq specifies shortest path bridging of unicast and multicast Ethernet frames, to calculate multiple active topologies (virtual LANs) that can share learned station location information. Two modes of operation are described, depending on whether the source Bridge is 802.1ad (QinQ) which is known as SPBV or 802.1ah (MACinMAC), which is known as SPBM. SPBV supports a VLAN using a VLAN Identifier (VID) per node to identify the shortest path tree (SPT) associated with that node. SPBM supports a VLAN by using one or more Backbone MAC addresses to identify each node and its associated SPT, and it can support multiple forwarding topologies for load sharing across equal cost trees using a single B-VID per forwarding topology. Both SPBV and SPBM use link-state routing technology. SPBM by virtue of its MACinMAC encapsulation is more suitable for a large data center than SPBV. 802.1aq defines 16 tunable multipath options as part of the base protocol, with an extensible multipathing mechanism to allow many more multipath variations in the future. 802.1aq supports the dynamic creation of virtual LAN's that interconnect all members with symmetric shortest-path routes. The virtual LANs can be deterministically assigned to the different multi paths providing a degree of traffic engineering in addition to multipathing and can grow or shrink with simple membership changes. 802.1aq is fully backward compatible with all 802.1 protocols. 802.1aq became an IEEE standard in April 2012.
 Fibre Channel over Ethernet: T11 FCoE This project utilizes existing Fibre Channel protocols to run on Ethernet to enable servers to have access to Fibre Channel storage via Ethernet. As noted above, one of the drivers behind enhancing Ethernet is to support storage traffic. While iSCSI was available, it depends on TCP/IP and there was a desire to support storage traffic at layer 2. This gave rise to the development of the FCoE protocol, which needed reliable Ethernet transport. The standard was finalized in June 2009 by the ANSI T11 committee.
 IEEE 802.1p/Q provides 8 traffic classes for priority-based forwarding.
 IEEE 802.3bd provided a mechanism for link-level per priority pause flow control.

These new protocols required new hardware and software in both the network and the network interface controller. Products were being developed by companies such as Avaya, Brocade, Cisco, Dell, EMC, Emulex, HP, Huawei, IBM, and Qlogic.

The Mosscraft MA.2 was a British light two-seat low-winged sporting monoplane of the 1930s.

Design and construction
The Moss M.A.2 was designed and built in 1939 at the Moss Brothers Aircraft Ltd factory in Chorley, Lancashire, England. It was of wooden construction and initially had two open cockpits, but was converted prewar to a two-seat side-by-side cabin layout.

Flying career
The first MA.2 G-AFMS was demonstrated at Heathrow aerodrome in May 1939. After flying in the UK it was shipped to Canada, where it became CF-BUB. It was flown over the Rocky Mountains in 1941, being the lowest powered aircraft to do so to date. It was flown to the Canadian east coast and down into the U.S.A.

After storage, it was shipped back to the UK in 1947. It was flown in the 1949 Kings Cup Air Race by W.H. Moss and in the 1950 race by G.F. Bullen. It was sold to the Fairwood Flying Group based at Swansea Airport in September 1953, who continued to fly the aircraft until it crashed 10 miles south of Builth Wells, Mid-Wales, on 7 July 1958.

A second MA.2 was built prewar, but not completed. It was found at Chorley in 1964 and a project to complete it is under way.

Henry William Lloyd Tanner (generally known as H. W. Lloyd Tanner) (17 January 1851 – 6 March 1915) was Professor of Mathematics at the University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire from 1883 to 1909.

Life
Tanner was born on 17 January 1851 at Burham, Kent and was educated at Bristol Grammar School and Jesus College, Oxford, where he was taught by John Griffiths.  He was appointed Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy at the  University College of South Wales and Monmouthshire (now Cardiff University) in 1883, and held the post until 1909.  He was a Fellow of the Royal Society and a Fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society.  Tanner published various papers on differential equations and other subjects in mathematics.

The President of the Royal Society, Sir William Crookes, said in his anniversary address in November 1915 that Tanner's death meant that mathematical science had lost "one of its most distinguished exponents", one who published "many important investigations in mathematics" that were "distinguished by great ingenuity and originality".  Crookes also said that the university was deeply indebted to Tanner's educational and administrative talents.

Colin Clifft (born 16 October 1934), also known by the nickname of "Grandad", is an English former professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1950s and 1960s. He played at representative level for England, and at club level for Wakefield Trinity (Heritage No. 599), Halifax (Heritage No. 677), and Featherstone Rovers (Heritage No. 407) (vice-captain), as a , i.e. number 13.

Background
Colin Clifft's birth was registered in Leeds North district, West Riding of Yorkshire, England. He is married to Beryl.

Playing career

International honours
Clifft won a cap for England while at Wakefield Trinity in 1956 against France.

County Cup Final appearances
Clifft played  in Featherstone Rovers' 0–10 defeat by Halifax in the 1963 Yorkshire County Cup Final during the 1963–64 season at Belle Vue, Wakefield on Saturday 2 November 1963.

Club career
Clifft made his début for Wakefield Trinity during March 1952, he played his last match for Wakefield Trinity during the 1956–57 season, he made his début for Featherstone Rovers on Saturday 28 November 1959, he appears to have scored no drop-goals (or field-goals as they are currently known in Australasia), but prior to the 1974–75 season all goals, whether; conversions, penalties, or drop-goals, scored 2-points, consequently prior to this date drop-goals were often not explicitly documented, therefore '0' drop-goals may indicate drop-goals not recorded, rather than no drop-goals scored.
