25900514 | Williella | Williella is a genus of moths belonging to the subfamily Tortricinae of the family Tortricidae.
Details
The moth genus Williella, family Tortricidae, subfamily Tortricinae, was established in 1984 to accommodate two newly-described species from New Caledonia: Williella sauteri and Williella angulata.
Williella was tentatively assigned to the base of the Archipini. Phylogenetic analysis of their plesiomorphic morphology suggested that Williella species are members of a group of isolated and generalized moths from Australia, New Zealand and South America.
The discovery of the genus in New Caledonia suggested that these plesiomorphic modern Tortricinae are isolated descendants of a group of very generalized Tortricinae that were distributed throughout the Gondwana supercontinent before it broke up into many of the main modern landmasses of the Southern Hemisphere.

The 3rd Guards Volnovakha Red Banner Order of Suvorov Motor Rifle Division (Military Unit Number 61415) was a division of the Soviet Army from 1957 to around 1992. It traced its history from the highly decorated 3rd Guards Rifle Division of World War II. The 3rd Guards Rifle Division was formed from the 153rd Rifle Division.
History
September 1941 to mid-1943
From 20 September to 9 November, the division conducted operations as part of the 54th Army of the Leningrad Front in the area of Mga and Sinyavino. From 10 to 14 November, the division relocated to the left flank of the army, south of the city of Volkhov. From 15 November to 28 December, the division conducted combat operations near Volkhov and then pursued the retreating German troops to the station of Pogostye.
In the summer of 1942, the division was brought back up to strength and entered the Stavka reserve.
From the end of August to September 1942, the division took part in the Sinyavino Offensive of the Volkhov Front. The division was tasked with breaking through the German defenses in the area of the Kruglaya grove and taking the station of Sinyavino. The 5th Guards Rifle Regiment advanced towards Gontovaya Lipka on 27 August. The division fought on the hill of Kruglaya grove between 10 September and 15 October.
In early December 1942, the division was withdrawn from the Stavka reserve and transferred under the 2nd Guards Army of the Stalingrad Front. In winter conditions, the division completed a difficult forced march of 200 to 280 kilometers from the railway station to the concentration areas. From 15 to 31 December 1942, the division engaged in active combat operations near Stalingrad.
During the Stalingrad strategic offensive, on the line of the Myshkova River, the division, as a part of the 2nd Guards Army, played a decisive role in the repulse of the counterattack of the German Kotelnikovo group. The division concentrated on a defensive line near the sovkhoz of Krep on the banks of the Myshkova river on 17 December. The division conducted difficult battles in the area of Vasilyevka on 20 December. Elements of the 3rd Guards defended the sector from Ivanovka to Kapkinka, repulsing the main attack in the sector from Vasilyevka to Kapkinka. With the army, the division began its own offensive on 24 December and forced the German troops to retreat to the south. The division reached the area of the sovkhoz imeni Lenina by 15:00 on 29 December (10&nbsp;km east of Kotelnikovo). At 10:30 on 31 December the division was fighting on the line from hill 107.8 to the northern outskirts of Verkhny Vasilyevsky to the eastern outskirts of Komissarovsky. Continuing the offensive toward Rostov, the division participated in the liberation of Novocherkassk on 13 February 1943, and three days later reached the Mius River, where German resistance forced them to take defensive positions.
The 22nd Guards Artillery Regiment was awarded the Order of the Red Banner on 22 February.
Summer 1943 to the end of the war
In August–September 1943, the 3rd Guards Division took part in the Donbas strategic offensive operation. The division liberated the inhabited localities of Bolshoy Tokmak (on 20 September 1943) and Volnovakha (on 10 September 1943). The 3rd Guards Rifle Division was among the units to receive the Volnovakha honorific in recognitions of its actions.
In late September, during the Melitopol Offensive, the 3rd Guards reached the lower Dnieper and the Black Sea coast, liberating Kakhovka on 2 November 1943. In December, as a part of the 4th Ukrainian Front, the division eliminated the German bridgehead on the left bank of the Dnieper (in the area of Kherson) after a stubborn battle. In February 1944, the army was transferred to the area of the Isthmus of Perekop, and in April–May it took part in the Crimean strategic operation, resulting in the liberation of Yevpatoriya on 13 April 1944, and, together with other forces of the 4th Ukrainian Front and the Black Sea Fleet, Sevastopol on 9 May. In May–June, the 2nd Guards Army was relocated to the area of cities of Dorogobuzh and Yelnya. From 20 May, it was in the Stavka reserve, and on July 8 it was included in the 1st Baltic Front. In July, during the Šiauliai Offensive, the division repulsed German attacks to the west and northwest of Šiauliai. In October, it participated in the Memel Offensive. On 20 December, it was reassigned to the 3rd Belorussian Front. In January–April 1945, during the East Prussian Offensive, it broke the German fortified defenses and eliminated, in conjunction with other troops, encircled German forces southwest of Koenigsberg and the Sambia group.
Postwar
After the end of the war, the division was reduced to the 13th Separate Guards Rifle Brigade on 31 July 1946. It was reorganized as the 3rd Guards Rifle Division again in October 1953. The division was reorganized as the 3rd Guards Motor Rifle Division at Klaipėda on 25 June 1957.{{Sfn|Kalashnikov|Dodonov|2019|pp=86–88}}<ref>Feskov et al. 2013, p.150, and Michael Holm, [http://www.ww2.dk/new/army/msd/3gvmsd.htm 3rd Guards Motorised Rifle Division], 2015.</ref>
The 3rd Guards Rifle Division was in the Voronezh Military District with the 11th Guards Rifle Corps in 1945–6, and later in 1955 and 1957. In the 1980s, the division became the 3rd Guards Motor Rifle Division for Coastal Defence on 12 October 1989 and transferred to the Baltic Fleet. Before that time it had been subordinated to the Baltic Military District. On 1 September 1993, the division was disbanded.

25900663 | NatA acetyltransferase | NatA acetyltransferase(Nα acetyltransferase), is an enzyme that serves to catalyze the addition of acetyl groups to various proteins emerging from the ribosome. Upon translation, the NatA binds to the ribosome and then "stretches" to the front end of the forming, or nascent, polypeptide, where it adds this acetyl group. This acetyl group is added to the front end, or N-terminus of the new protein.
Forty percent of all proteins in the yeast proteome are thought to be N-terminally acetylated, with a corresponding figure of 90% in mammalian proteins.
To be specific, NatA is the main N{alpha}-terminal acetyltransferase in the yeast cytosol, responsible for the acetylation of proteins at locations in which L-serine, L-alanine, L-threonine, or glycine are present.
NatA Acetyltransferase is not a single protein but a complex of three subunits.
Sup35p acetylation
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae NatA acetyltransferase interacts with the Sup35p protein. It is involved in the reaction of the [PSI+], converting the [psi-] to its own conformation. Thus, [PSI+] strains deficient in NatA Acetyltransferase have been found to have an altered interaction between Sup35p[PSI+] and nascent Sup35p. This interaction at the post-translational level still produces a prion with classical beta sheets, but this version of the interaction does not take away the function of this third release factor. Thus, stop codons are translated reliably in [PSI+] strains lacking NatA Acetyltransferase.
Subunits in yeast
Naa10 (formerly Nat1p) – 27kDA, has catalytic properties which acetylate the nascent polypeptide.
Naa15 (formerly Ard1p) – 98kDa, functions to bind to anchor onto the ribosome.
Naa50 (formerly Nat5p) – Newly discovered, unknown function.
Yeast cells lacking Naa15 and Naa10 show a reduced sporulation efficiency, failure to enter G0 phase under specific conditions, defect in silencing of the silent mating-type loci, and decreased survival after heat shock. However, strains lacking Naa50 do not show any obvious difference to the phenotype.
Comparisons
Natp requires longer nascent polypeptide chains to function catalystically than NAC (nascent polypeptide-associated complex) and Hsp70 homologue Ssb1/2p.

Griffith Harold "Grif" Teller (December 9, 1899 – April 8, 1993) was an artist best known for his paintings for the Pennsylvania Railroad.
Early life
Teller was born on December 9, 1899, in Newark, New Jersey.{{sfnp|Cupper|Murry|1992|p25}} Teller attended the Barringer High School until his junior year, when he transferred to the Fawcett School of Industrial Arts.{{sfnp|Cupper|Murry|1992|p27}} With what started as a temporary job with the Osborne Company, an advertising and color calendar company, towards the end of World War I, Teller was hired permanently after showing the head of Osborne's Designing Department some of his paintings.{{sfnp|Cupper|Murry|1992|p=29}}
He was a long-time resident of Little Falls, New Jersey.<ref>Simmons, Rose.

Retrieved July 9, 2015. "Born in Newark, N.J., Mr. Teller lived most of his life in his home town and in Little Falls, N.J."</ref>
Career
In 1927, Teller was given an assignment to paint the 1928 wall calendar scene for the Pennsylvania Railroad.{{sfnp|Cupper|Murry|1992|p30}} The Pennsylvania returned to Teller the next year, and he eventually painted all of the calendar scenes for their calendars up to 1942. Other artists were contracted to paint the artwork for the calendar during World War II, as the Pennsylvania was favoring more patriotic scenes.{{sfnp|Cupper|Murry|1992|p34}} Teller painted for the Pennsylvania once again after the war, starting with the 1947 calendar. The Osborne Company was sold to a competitor in 1953, eventually causing Teller to be laid off.{{sfnp|Cupper|Murry|1992|p=34}} He continued to paint for the Pennsylvania as a freelancer, until the railroad discontinued full-size wall calendars in 1959.<ref>Many of his Pennsylvania paintings are reproduced in Alvin Staufer's book, "Pennsy Power: Steam and Electric Locomotives of the Pennsylvania Railroad, 1900–1957" (1962, Alvin F. Staufer).</ref> His freelance work, which encompassed both railroad and non-railroad subjects, continued into the 1980s.
Teller's 1928 painting, When the Broadway Meets the Dawn, was used as the background for the "Preserve Our Heritage" special-fund license plate introduced in 1998 by PennDOT to help fund Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission programs, which are still sold as of 2025.<ref>{{cite web |urlhttps://www.pa.gov/services/dmv/apply-for-special-organization-registration-plates.html#qMuseum&sortCriteria%40copapwptitle%20ascending%2C%40title%20ascending |titlePennDOT page stating purpose of "railroad" license plate |access-date26 January 2025}}</ref> References {{reflist}} Sources * {{cite book |last1Cupper |first1Dan |last2Murry |first2Ken |year1992 |titleCrossroads of Commerce: The Pennsylvania Railroad Calendar Art of Grif Teller |publisherGreat Eastern Publishing |locationRichmond, VT |isbn978-0-9625-6021-7 |oclc=27779012 }}

Ohio House of Representatives
A former member of the Huber Heights City Council, Morgan made a run for the Ohio House of Representatives in 2008, following term limits for incumbent Arlene Setzer.
He was sworn into his first term on January 5, 2009, in a new Democratic controlled House. A year later, Morgan declared himself as a candidate for Ohio Auditor of State and was favored by many members of the Tea Party movement in Ohio. He was defeated by Delaware County Prosecutor David Yost. He was succeeded by Michael Henne.
Morgan was mentioned as a potential successor to Secretary of State Jon Husted, once Husted vacated his seat in the Ohio Senate. However, the seat went to Peggy Lehner. Morgan went to the Ohio Supreme Court to get school-funding records from the administration of Democratic Gov.

Carol Victor, Hereditary Prince of Albania (Karl Viktor Wilhelm Friedrich Ernst Günther zu Wied, 19 May 1913{{spaced ndash}}8 December 1973), was the only son of William, Prince of Albania, and briefly heir to the Principality of Albania. He held the title of Hereditary Prince of Albania. He was also styled Skënder, in homage to Skanderbeg, the national hero.
Early life
Birth and family
Carol Victor was born on 19 May 1913 in Potsdam, Kingdom of Prussia, as Prince Charles Victor of Wied ({{langx|de|Karl Viktor Prinz zu Wied}}). He was the second child and only son of Prince William Frederick of Wied (1876–1945), son of William, Prince of Wied, and Princess Marie of the Netherlands, and his wife, Princess Sophie of Schönburg-Waldenburg (1885–1936), daughter of Victor, Hereditary Prince of Schönburg-Waldenburg and his wife, Princess Lucia of Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg. Through his paternal grandmother he was related with the Dutch royal family. His great-grandparents were King William I of the Netherlands and King Frederick William III of Prussia. He had some remote Albanian ancestry through his mother, being a descendant of Ruxandra Ghica, daughter of Grigore I Ghica, Prince of Wallachia.<ref>http://www.ghika.net/Histoire/Question_Orient.pdf The Ghica family was a Greek Orthodox Phanariote dynasty of Albanian origin</ref>

His doctoral thesis on criminal procedure was published in Stuttgart in 1936.<ref>(Die alternative Feststellung im Strafrecht; Würzburger Abhandlungen zum deutschen und ausländischen Prozessrecht, Heft 30, Kohlhammer Verlag, 1936)</ref> He was a keen swordsman and enjoyed skiing. In 1937, Swire described him as a young man of great ability, with his father's good nature.<ref>(Swire, Zog's Albania, page 202)</ref>
World War II
During the Second World War, Carol Victor served as an officer in the German army in Romania, and in the autumn of 1941 there was speculation that the Germans, who had occupied Kingdom of Serbia, including the Kosovo with Albanian majority, would use him to rally Albanians to the German cause. This worried Mussolini's Foreign Minister, Count Ciano, to such extent that in November 1941, he accused the Germans of aiming to construct a new Albanian state led by Prince Carol Victor, which would be anti-Italian and whose militia would take oath directly to Hitler. There appeared to be little truth to Ciano's fears, and the Germans reassured him they had no such ambition for the prince.<ref>(Fischer, Albania at War, 1939 - 1945, page 86)</ref> At the time of second/third Battle of Cassino he belonged to the 44th Infantry Division.<ref>(Manfred Schick, Monte Cassino: Ein Rückblick nach 60 Jahren)</ref>
On the death of his father, on 18 April 1945 at Predeal, near Sinaia, in Romania, he succeeded as Head of the Princely House of Albania (Wied) and Sovereign Grand Master of the Order of the Black Eagle although he made no public claim to the throne of Albania. Less than a year his father's death, both his uncles William Frederick (6. Fürst zu Wied) and Victor, former German ambassador to Sweden (1933 -1943) died. Also in 1945, his uncle Günther (5. Fürst von Schönburg-Waldenburg), Sophie's brother, was expropriated without compensation and interned at Rügen island (Sächsische Biografie). His sister, Princess Marie Eleonore of Albania (Princesha e Shqipërisë) died in a communist internment camp at Miercurea Ciuc, Romania, on 29 September 1956, without issue.{{citation needed|dateJanuary 2021}}Later life
In 1952, Carol Victor wrote a bibliographical survey of his ancestor the German explorer, ethnologist and naturalist Prince Maximilian of Wied-Neuwied.<ref>(Proceedings of the 30th International Congress of Americanists, held at Cambridge, pages 193 - 194)</ref> Later he wrote "Maximilian Prinz zu Wied, sein Leben und seine Reisen" in Maximilian Prinz zu Wied, unveröffentliche Bilder und Handschriften zur Völkerkunde Brasiliens, Josef Röder and Hermann Trimborn (editors), Bonn, Ferdinand Dümmler, 1954), pages 13 – 25.
In 1960, Carol Victor left the Munich society "Freunde des Balletts", of which he was president since its foundation in 1956.<ref>(Der Spiegel 19/1960)</ref> The following year he published the book: "Königinnen des Balletts: Zweihundert Jahre europäisches Ballett".
Marriage
On 8 September 1966, whilst living in New York City, Carol Victor married the English-born widow Eileen de Coppet, whose first husband had been Captain André de Coppet (1892 - 1953). They had no children; de Coppet was in her forties when the marriage occurred.<ref>{{cite web | urlhttps://www.genealogics.org/getperson.php?personIDI00157529&treeLEO | titleAndré de Coppet: Genealogics }}</ref>
Carol Victor and Eileen lived later in Cheyne Walk, Chelsea, London.

'HMS Beagle''' was an 18-gun Cruizer-class brig-sloop of the Royal Navy. She was launched in 1804, during the Napoleonic Wars. She played a major role in the Battle of the Basque Roads. Beagle was laid up in ordinary in 1813 and sold in 1814.
Career
Beagle was commissioned in August 1804 under Commander John Burn, who sailed her to the Mediterranean.{{sfnp|Winfield|2008|p294}} On 5 December Burn and Beagle captured the Spanish ship Fuenta Hermosa.<ref>{{London Gazette |issue16052 |date1 August 1807 |page1019 }}</ref> Burn was temporarily relieved by Commander George Digby between June and August 1805, after which she joined Sir John Orde’s squadron off Cádiz.{{sfnp|Winfield|2008|p=294}}
On 14 January 1805, Beagle captured the Spanish ship Pastora Hermosa, which was carrying bullion.<ref>{{London Gazette |issue15914 |date29 April 1806 |page=546 }}</ref>
Commander Francis Newcombe left the hired armed ship Lord Eldon to replace Burn in February 1806; Beagle remained in the Mediterranean until 1807. On 27 April 1806, Beagle and a number of other vessels were in company with Termagant when Termagant captured Anna Maria Carolina.<ref>{{London Gazette |issue16487 |date21 May 1811 |page=946 }}</ref> Beagle'' then moved to the Downs where she operated between 1808 and 1809.
While under Newcombe's command Beagle captured three privateers in the English Channel. She captured Hazard, of 14 guns and 49 men, on 2 October 1808, Vengeur, of 16 guns and 48 men, on 24 January 1809, and Fortune, of 14 guns and 58 men, on 18 February.{{sfnp|Winfield|2008|p294}}{{sfnp|Norie|1827|p514}}
*Hazard, which was under the command of Joseph Marie Lelong, had one man badly wounded before Beagle was able to capture her after a three-hour chase. Hazard had left Dieppe the day before and had captured two light colliers (the Trinity Yacht and Assistance),<ref>{{London Gazette |issue16188 |date1 October 1808 |page1354 }}</ref> but Newcombe was unable to find and recapture them.<ref>The European Magazine, 1808, p.395.</ref><ref>{{cite news|urlhttps://hdl.handle.net/2027/hvd.32044105232946?urlappend%3Bseq431%3Bownerid27021597765412533-447 |titleThe Marine List |workLloyd's List |issue4289 |date4 August 1808 |hdl2027/hvd.32044105232946?urlappend%3Bseq431 |access-date25 November 2021}}</ref> Hazard had been Matthew, of Sunderland, and was carrying a cargo of coals.<ref>{{London Gazette |issue16368 |date8 May 1810 |page677 }}</ref>
*Vengeur was in company with Grand Napoleon, which escaped. Vengeur herself did not surrender until Beagle came alongside, though her captain, M. Bourgnie,<ref>{{London Gazette |issue16223 |date24 January 1809 |page110 }}</ref> was wounded.{{sfnp|Ralfe|1820|p122}} Vengeur had made no captures.<ref>Naval Chronicle, Vol. 21, p.164.</ref>
*Fortune, under Captain Tucker, had one man badly wounded. She was out of Calais and had made no captures.<ref>''The Gentleman's magazine, Volume 79, Part 1, p.263.</ref>
Participation at the Battle of the Basque Roads
Beagle arrived at Basque Roads on 10 April, having escorted from the Downs the convoy of fireships that were to attack the French anchorage the next day.<ref>Cordingly, pg. 184</ref> Beagle'' was the second ship (after the bomb vessel {{HMS|Aetna|1803|2}}) to voluntarily arrive to aid Cochrane's Imperieuse after the successful fireship attack, her crew reportedly giving Cochrane three cheers upon arriving. The prize crew that took possession and later burnt the French ship-of-the-line {{HMS|Calcutta|1795|2}}, was under the command of a lieutenant from Beagle and a midshipman from Imperieuse. Beagle also took part in the bombardment of the French ships Aquilon and Ville de Varsovie, skilfully manoeuvring to fire, unlike other British ships that were anchoring to engage.<ref name= Cord1>Cordingly, pg. 197-200</ref>
Beagle was one of the few ships joining Cochrane in ignoring Rear-Admiral Robert Stopford's recall order. Cochrane tasked her with protecting Aetna during the move upriver. Newcombe therefore placed Beagle between Aetna and the grounded French battleships. As a result, Beagle took heavy damage to her rigging and expended nearly all of her powder.<ref nameCord1/> Beagle had one man wounded.<ref>{{London Gazette |issue16248 |date21 April 1809 |page539 }}</ref>
Newcombe's achievements and valour resulted in his receiving promotion to post-captain after the battle.<ref>Cordingly, pg. 208</ref>{{efn|Head money was paid in March 1819. An ordinary seaman received 13 shillings; a first-class share was worth £86 13s 2¼d.<ref>{{London Gazette|issue17458|page450|date9 March 1819}}</ref>}} In 1847 the Admiralty awarded the then-surviving participants in the battle the Naval General Service Medal with the clasp "Basque Roads 1809". Two of Beagle{{'}}s sister ships, {{HMS|Dotterel|1808|2}} and {{HMS|Foxhound|1806|2}} were also present at the Basque Roads.Later yearsLater in 1809 Commander William Dolling took command of Beagle, following Newcombe's promotion.

Beagle, Juniper, and {{HMS|Holly|1809|2}} participated in the Siege of San Sebastián (7 July – 8 September 1813) as part of the fleet under Captain George Collier assigned to help Sir Arthur Wellesley's campaigns in Portugal and Spain. Beagle had one man dangerously wounded in the taking of the battery on Santa Clara Island.<ref>{{London Gazette |issue16774|date14 September 1813 |page1826 }}</ref> Later, the seamen from the squadron, under Smith's command, maneuvered 24-pounder guns from Surveillante up the steep scarp of Saint Clara Island to assemble their own battery facing San Sebastian, which allowed them to silence the guns there.<ref>{{London Gazette |issue16775|date20 September 1813 |pages1853–1854}}</ref> Smith was slightly wounded while being in charge of the seamen on shore engaged in taking the French battery on Saint Clara Island and in the subsequent operations.<ref>{{London Gazette |issue16775 |date20 September 1813 |page=1856 }}</ref> In 1847 the Admiralty authorized the issuance of the Naval General service Medal with clasp "St. Sebastian" to surviving participants in the campaign.

Chang is the founder of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC), the world's first and largest semiconductor foundry. He was the company's chief executive officer (CEO) from 1987 to 2005, and retired as its chairman in 2018. {{As of|2024|11}}, his net worth is estimated at US$4.6{{nbsp}}billion.<ref>{{cite web |titleForbes profile: Morris Chang |urlhttps://www.forbes.com/profile/morris-chang/ |access-date1 November 2024 |websiteForbes |language=en}}</ref>
After attending Harvard University, Chang earned three degrees from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and a doctorate from Stanford University. He built his business career first in the United States and then subsequently in Taiwan. From 1958 to 1983, Chang worked at Texas Instruments (TI), becoming its vice president. He then left TI in 1983 and was briefly the president and chief operating officer (COO) of General Instrument. He founded TSMC in 1987.
Early life
Chang was born in the city of Ningbo, situated within Chekiang in China, in 1931.

Chang spent most of his primary school years in British Hong Kong between the ages of six and eleven. In 1941, the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong began and Chang's family went back to Shanghai and Ningbo to live for a few months, eventually making their way to the wartime capital of Chongqing. In 1948, as China was in the height of the restarted Chinese Civil War, a year before People’s Republic of China (PRC) was established and the Republic of China (ROC)'s retreat to Taiwan, Chang again moved to Hong Kong.<ref name"k12ea"/>Education in the United StatesIn 1949, Chang moved to the United States to attend Harvard University.

Three years later, he moved to Texas Instruments in 1958, which was then rapidly rising in its field. After three years at TI, he rose to manager of the engineering section of the company.

Career
Chang worked on a four-transistor project for TI where the manufacturing was done by IBM. This was one of the early semiconductor foundry relationships. Also at TI, Chang pioneered the then controversial idea of pricing semiconductors "ahead of the cost curve", which meant sacrificing early profits ("short term") to gain market share and achieve manufacturing yields that would result in greater profits over an extended timeline ("long-term").<ref>{{Cite web |titleStanford Engineering Hero Morris Chang honored for revolutionizing chip making |urlhttps://engineering.stanford.edu/news/stanford-engineering-hero-morris-chang-honored-revolutionizing-chip-making |date2016-06-09 |publisherStanford School of Engineering |languageen |access-date2020-05-19 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|lastBUS|firstFRANCOIS FRANCIS |titleL'EPOQUE OU LES PUCES FONT LEURS LOIS : histoire des semiconducteurs vecue de chez texas instruments |date2020 |publisherBOOKS ON DEMAND |isbn9782322256853 |oclc=1225066813}}</ref>

Taiwan
In the early 1980s, while still at Texas Instruments, Chang witnessed TI's factory in Japan achieving twice the chip production yield as TI's factory in Texas.<ref name":0" /> Observing that the staff and technicians in Japan are better qualified and had lower turnover, and failing to recruit the same caliber of staff in the United States, he concluded that future of advanced manufacturing appeared to be in Asia.<ref name":0" />
After he left General Instrument Corporation, Sun Yun-suan, Premier of the Republic of China (ROC), recruited him to become chairman and president of the Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) in Taiwan, where the ROC government is now based, having lost the mainland.<ref>{{cite book |last1Tsai |first1Terence |last2Cheng |first2Borshiuan |titleThe Silicon Dragon: High-tech Industry in Taiwan |publisherEdward Elgar Publishing |date2006 |page92 |isbn9781847203137 }}</ref> This marked his return to the ROC, initially thought to last for a few years, three decades after he left during the chaotic Chinese Civil War mainly between the People's Republic of China and the ROC.<ref name":0" />
As the head of a government-sponsored non-profit, he was in charge of promoting industrial and technological development in Taiwan. Chang founded TSMC in 1987 thanks to transfer of production technology and license of intellectual property from Philips in exchange for 27.6 percent equity and financing from the government's National Development Fund, Executive Yuan for 48.3 percent stake.<ref>{{cite news |title與飛利浦數度交手 |urlhttps://www.cw.com.tw/article/5107898 |access-date30 January 2023 |agencyCommonWealth Magazine |date1 April 1997 |languagezh-tw |archive-date14 March 2023 |archive-urlhttps://web.archive.org/web/20230314101653/https://www.cw.com.tw/article/5107898 |url-statuslive }}</ref><ref>{{cite news |title猶太人與台積電的奇特淵源 |urlhttps://www.upmedia.mg/news_info.php?Type2&SerialNo106657 |access-date30 January 2023 |workwww.upmedia.mg |agencyUp Media |date16 February 2021 |languagezh-tw |archive-date30 January 2023 |archive-urlhttps://web.archive.org/web/20230130153324/https://www.upmedia.mg/news_info.php?Type2&SerialNo106657 |url-statuslive }}</ref> This is the beginning of the period where firms increasingly saw value in outsourcing their manufacturing capabilities to Asia.

In an interview with the Brookings Institution in 2022, Chang said the US federal government’s efforts to increase onshore chip manufacturing by spending tens of billions of dollars would be a very expensive and wasteful exercise in futility. He believed the US would increase onshore semiconductor manufacturing somewhat at a very high cost, and produce at high unit costs, rendering it unable to compete with factories like TSMC. Chang said TSMC chairman Mark Liu decided to invest US$12 billion in Arizona at the urging of the US government.<ref>{{cite news |last1Vigliarolo |first1Brandon |titleUS chip output growth a futile exercise, warns TSMC founder |urlhttps://www.theregister.com/2022/04/20/us_chips_tsmc/ |access-date29 March 2024 |workwww.theregister.com |languageen}}</ref><ref name"TaipeiTimes220422">{{cite news |last1Wang |first1Lisa |titleUS' chip bid 'futile,' Morris Chang says - Taipei Times |urlhttps://www.taipeitimes.com/News/biz/archives/2022/04/22/2003776996 |access-date29 March 2024 |workwww.taipeitimes.com |date22 April 2022}}</ref> Personal life Chang obtained American citizenship in 1962.<ref name":0" />

Kings Canyon is a canyon within the Confusion Range in Millard County, Utah, United States. US Highway 6/US Highway 50 runs through the windy canyon. The area in and around the canyon is unpopulated, and is only used by humans for transportation and some sheep herding.
The strongly bedded rocks that line the canyon are chiefly Silurian to Devonian carbonate rocks, though pink Tertiary ignimbrites can also be seen sporadically in places.
A side spur of the canyon, called Cat Canyon, is the location of the most famous tourist attraction in the canyon, Elephant Rock which is in the shape of an elephant carrying a pack or load.

Marist modifies the proportion of its frames for local polling, based on data from the National Health Interview Survey. Marist has also used a blend of phone, text, and online surveying for some polls. Marist's frames are primarily obtained from Dynata. Marist uses stratified sampling based on geography. Respondents are contacted through a Voxco computer-assisted telephone interviewing system by live interviewers, typically recruited from the undergraduate student body. Callbacks of phone contacts may be attempted depending on the result of an attempted call. As of 2024, a typical poll will see around a 1% response rate.

Specifically, the poll asked whether or not players linked to clinics that provide PEDs, such as Biogenesis, should be suspended—even if they did not fail a drug test. The second question asked if players who used PEDs should receive eligibility for the Hall of Fame.<ref>{{cite web|urlhttp://www.newsday.com/sports/baseball/on-base-perception-1.3631854/marist-poll-conducts-survey-on-peds-in-baseball-1.5745870|titleMarist Poll conducts survey on PEDs in baseball |workNewsday|date2013-07-22}}</ref>

A Badly Broken Code is the debut studio album by Dessa, a member of Minneapolis indie hip hop collective Doomtree. It was released by Doomtree Records in 2010.
The album title comes from a line in the poem "Nostalgia" by American poet Billy Collins.<ref>{{cite web|urlhttp://thecreatorsproject.com/blog/breaking-the-code-a-qa-with-indie-rap-songstress-dessa|titleBreaking The Code: A Q&A With Indie Rap Songstress Dessa|workThe Creators Project|firstMakena|lastWalsh|dateMarch 29, 2011|access-dateApril 4, 2016}}</ref>ReceptionJakob Dorof of Tiny Mix Tapes gave the album 4 stars out of 5, saying, "The result is likely one of the best hip-hop songs you'll hear this year, let alone from the rare type of MC that manages to be white, female, and supremely talented all in one."<ref nametinymixtapes/>

Mozilla Firefox 3.6 is a version of the Firefox web browser released in January 2010. The release's main improvement over Firefox 3.5 is improved performance (due to further speed improvements in the TraceMonkey JavaScript engine). It uses the Gecko 1.9.2 engine (compared to 1.9.1 in Fx 3.5), which improves compliance with web standards. It was codenamed Namoroka.<ref>{{cite web| urlhttps://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Namoroka |titleFirefox/Namoroka |publisherMozilla Wiki |access-date2009-06-24}}</ref> In this version, support for X BitMap images was dropped.
This release marked the beginning of a new development cycle for Firefox. As well as receiving major updates, the browser also received minor updates with new features. This was to allow users to receive new features more quickly and the dawn of a new roadmap that reflected these changes.<ref name="Lorentz"/>
It was superseded by Firefox 4, released the next year, although Fx 3.6 had a prolonged period of use and version 4 had noted user interface changes. Firefox 3.6 is the last major version of an official Firefox release to run on PowerPC-based Macintoshes (see TenFourFox for a much-more-recent version of Firefox for PowerPC-based computers running Mac OS X). Soon after 4, much less weight was given to major version numbers, with 6 numbers used by September of that year (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9) compared to 3 in nearly a decade of Firefox development (1, 2 and 3).
Firefox versions 4 through 9 had all reached end-of-life status while Mozilla continued supporting Firefox 3.6 with security updates.

25900921 | Rancho San Carlos de Jonata | thumb|upright|Rancho San Carlos de Jonata was granted to José M. Covarrubias, a Californio politician.
Rancho San Carlos de Jonata was a Mexican land grant in present-day Santa Barbara County, California given in 1845 by Governor Pío Pico to Joaquín Carrillo and Jose Maria Covarrubias. The grant was west of Mission Santa Inés in the Santa Ynez Valley, and extended north from the Santa Ynez River along Zaca Creek. The grant encompasses present-day Solvang and Buellton.
History
José Joaquin Carrillo (1801–1868) was the son of Domingo Antonio Ygnacio Carrillo (1791–1837) and Maria Concepcion Nicanor Pico (1797–1871). Joaquin Carrillo married Manuela Carrillo and served as Santa Barbara County Judge from 1851–1853, a position later held by José María Covarrubias from 1861–1863. Joaquín Carrillo owned with his brother Rancho Lompoc and Rancho Mission Vieja de la Purisma.
José María Covarrubias (c. 1809 – 1870), a Frenchman who became a Mexican citizen and came to California in 1834 with the Hijar-Padres Colony to be a schoolteacher. Covarrubias held several key government posts in Monterey and Santa Barbara. Covarrubias married María Carrillo, sister of Joaquín Carrillo. He served as alcalde at Santa Barbara. In 1843 Covarrubias received the Rancho Castac land grant. Covarrubias was a member of the 1849 California Constitutional Convention, and member of the California State Assembly for four terms 1849–1862. In 1850, Covarrubias bought the Island of Santa Catalina land grant from Thomas M. Robbins.
With the cession of California to the United States following the Mexican-American War, the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo provided that the land grants would be honored. As required by the Land Act of 1851, a claim for the six square league Rancho San Carlos de Jonata was filed with the Public Land Commission in 1853, and the grant was patented to Joaquín Carrillo and José M. Covarrubias in 1872.
Rufus Thompson (R.T.) Buell (1827-1905) was born in Vermont. In 1853 Buell joined the California Gold Rush, but by 1857 was dairy farming in Marin County, and in 1865, Monterey County. In 1866, R.T. Buell and his brother, Alonzo Wilcox Buell, bought a quarter of Rancho San Carlos de Jonata from Joaquín Carrillo and José M. Covarrubias. By 1872 R.T had bought the entire Rancho, and dissolved the partnership with his brother Alonzo. A severe drought forced Buell to sell of the rancho in the 1870s.
This property was sold in 1911 to the Danish American Company to establish a Danish colony called "Solvang". The remaining rancho was partitioned among his seven heirs upon his death in 1915.

Fitzgerald was also responsible for Gonzaga being put on four years of probation for keeping an illegal slush fund for recruiting purposes, hiding almost $200,000 from the NCAA. The NCAA investigators agreed that Gonzaga did not gain a competitive advantage from use of the money, since the totals spent on recruiting fell within NCAA guidelines.
Born in San Francisco, California, Fitzgerald went to high school at St. Ignatius and graduated in 1959,<ref>{{Cite web |title00000048 by SiPrep|urlhttps://siprep.slickpic.com/albums/_1959/photos/10882502/00000048/?squared}}</ref> then attended college at Santa Clara and San Francisco State,<ref namegzpdfhc/> and graduated from Cal State, Los Angeles.

Pseuderanthemum variabile, commonly known as pastel flower or love flower in its native range, or night and afternoon in the USA, is a small perennial herb in the family Acanthaceae which is native to Australia, Papua New Guinea and New Caledonia. It can be an unwelcome nuisance in orchid nurseries in Australia.
Description
Pseuderanthemum variabile is a creeping herb with a highly variable appearance, growing up to {{cvt|30|cm}} high, all parts of which may be pubescent. The wiry stems are around {{convert|1|-|2|mm|in|2}} wide. The leaves are lanceolate to ovate in shape with entire margins, and their arrangement is opposite and decussate. They measure up to {{cvt|7|cm}} long by {{cvt|4|cm}} wide with petioles up to {{cvt|30|mm}} long, and have from 3 to 6 lateral veins either side of the midrib.{{R|RBGS|RFK|APSNSW}}
The leaf colour varies greatly. The upper surface is usually dark green to mid-green, but may have varying amounts of light grey or (rarely) purple patterning. The lower surface of the leaf is usually light green but may also be purple or dark red (see gallery for examples).
The inflorescence is produced from the terminal axil, and the zygomorphic flowers have five petals.{{R|APSNSW}} Two petals are smaller than the others and are usually uppermost. They measure around {{cvt|7|by|4|mm}} and overlap each other slightly. Two more are held perpendicular to the first pair, one on either side, and the last (and largest) petal is opposite the first pair. This one measures about {{cvt|10|by|6|mm}} and is often decorated with a variable number of small purple spots. The petals may be any colour shade from white to pink or lilac.{{R|RBGS|RFK|APSNSW}}
The fruit is a capsule up to {{cvt|15|mm}} long, and may be pubescent or glabrous.{{R|RBGS|APSNSW}}
Taxonomy
The basionym of this species is Eranthemum variabile which was first described by the Scottish botanist Robert Brown in his book Prodromus Florae Novae Hollandiae et Insulae Van Diemen published in 1810.{{R|IPNI1|BHL1}} In 1883 the German taxonomist and botanist Ludwig Radlkofer transferred a number of species, including E. variablile, to the new genus Pseuderanthemum.{{R|IPNI2}}
Distribution and habitat
This species is found in Papua New Guinea, eastern parts of New South Wales and Queensland in Australia, and in New Caledonia.{{R|RBGS|RFK|PNGP|ENDEMIA}} It may occupy a number of forest types in Australia, most often rainforest and wet sclerophyll forest, but also woodlands, open forest and deciduous vine thickets.{{R|RBGS|RFK}}
It has been introduced to Florida, South Carolina and Puerto Rico.{{R|POWO}}
Ecology
P. variabile is the food plant for caterpillars of a number of butterflies in the family Nymphalidae, including Doleschallia bisaltide, Hypolimnas alimena, Hypolimnas bolina, Hypolimnas misippus and Junonia orithya.{{R|NHML}}
Conservation
This species is listed by the Queensland Department of Environment and Science as least concern.{{R|DESQLD}} {{As of|2022|04|29}}, it has not been assessed by the IUCN.
Cultivation and uses
It is an attractive addition to gardens, and can be used as a feature, a ground cover, or a gap filler in a rockery. It is easily grown from seed or cuttings.{{R|APSNSW}}
In Australia, it is reported by some orchid nurseries as a pest, as it often appears in pots and may be difficult to eradicate.{{R|APSNSW|AON}}

Whitepages is a provider of online directory services, fraud screening, background checks and identity verification for consumers and businesses. It has the largest database available of contact information on residents of the United States.<ref name="VB"/>
Whitepages was founded in 1997 as a hobby for then-Stanford student Alex Algard. It was incorporated in 2000 and received $45 million in funding in 2005. Investors were later bought-out by Algard in 2013. From 2008 to 2013, Whitepages released several mobile apps, a re-design in 2009, the ability for consumers to control their contact information, and other features. From 2010 to 2016, the company shifted away from advertising revenue and began focusing more on selling business services and subscription products.
History
The idea for Whitepages was conceived by Alex Algard, while studying at Stanford in 1996. Algard was searching for a friend's contact information, and the phone company gave him the wrong number.<ref name"ppp"/> He thought of an online email directory as an easier way to find people.<ref name"seven"/><ref name"two">{{cite news|titleWhitePages.com has number for fast growth|urlhttps://archive.seattletimes.com/archive/20031013/btinterface13/whitepagescom-has-number-for-fast-growth|newspaperThe Seattle Times|access-dateAugust 7, 2013|dateOctober 13, 2003}}</ref> Algard bought the Whitepages.com domain for $900,<ref name"four">{{cite news|firstNicholas|lastCarlson|dateJanuary 24, 2007|urlhttp://www.internetnews.com/xSP/article.php/3655611|publisherInternetNews|titleWhitePages.com: Reach out and search someone|access-dateDecember 2, 2013}}</ref><ref name"recentsource"/> which he says was all of his savings at the time.<ref name"seven"/> He continued operating the website as a hobby while working as an investment banker for Goldman Sachs.<ref name"dakfhukajehf"/> He expanded the database of contact information using data licensed from American Business Information (now a part of Infogroup).<ref name"recentsource"/> Eventually, Whitepages was producing more ad-revenue than Algard was earning at Goldman Sachs.<ref name"recentsource"/> In 1998, Algard left his job to focus on the website; he incorporated Whitepages in 2000.<ref name"dakfhukajehf">{{citation|publisherPrivate Equity Growth Capital Council|urlhttp://www.pegcc.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/pec_cs_whitepages_020309a.pdf|titleWhitePages.com: From hobby to number one people search destination|access-dateAugust 6, 2013}}</ref>
The site grew and attracted more advertisers. The company brokered deals with Yellowpages and Superpages, whereby Whitepages earned revenue for sending them referral traffic.

25901089 | Ismail ibn Ubayd Allah ibn Abi al-Muhajir | Ismail ibn Ubayd Allah ibn Abi al-Muhajir () was an Umayyad governor of Ifriqiya (North Africa) from 718 to 720.
Ismail ibn Ubayd Allah ibn Abi al-Muhajir (or al-Muhajjar) was from a client tribe of the Quraysh.
In 718, Ismail ibn Ubayd Allah was appointed by Caliph Umar bin AbdulAziz or Umar II to replace his predecessor's appointee, the unpopular Muhammad bin Yazid. Ismail was one of the new crop of Umar II's competent governors, with instructions to improve the Kairouan administration and pursue the integration of non-Arab Muslims into the empire, rather than treat them as conquered peoples. As such, Ismail encouraged conversions among the Berbers of North Africa and curbed the abuses of the Arab military caste. Ismail adhered to Islamic law and eliminated extraordinary taxes and slave-tributes on Berber populations. He is credited for completing the conversion of the Berber population to Islam.
In a curious note, Ismail was the first and only Umayyad governor of Ifriqiya who was not given supervisory authority over Iberia (al-Andalus). In an unusual step, Caliph Umar II decided to appoint Al-Samh bin Malik al-Khawlani as the governor of al-Andalus directly, and made him directly answerable to Damascus, rather than going through Kairouan.
Ismail's tenure was competent but short. He was relieved of his post in 720 by Umar II's successor, Caliph Yazid II and replaced by the dubious Yazid bin Abi Muslim as governor in Kairouan.

25901107 | Wimmera Regional Library Corporation | The Wimmera Regional Library Corporation is situated in the northwest of Victoria, Australia. It covers an area of approximately 36,800 km2. and serves two local government bodies -Horsham Rural City Council and West Wimmera Shire Council, with a combined population of approximately 23,700. As these figures indicate, its clientele is predominantly rural-based and often has considerable distances between centres.
The Wimmera Regional Library operates 5 static branches in Edenhope, Goroke, Harrow, Horsham and Kaniva.
History
In the 1860s the first library was located in the Mechanics Institute in Horsham on the corner of Firebrace and Wilson streets, then in a building in Firebrace Street. In 1872 it moved to a timber building between Pynsent Street and Roberts Avenue, where it lost many books and records in a fire in 1908. When the library re-opened in 1909 it was in a new building in Pynsent street. In 1937 the name was changed from institute library to Horsham Public Library (the Horsham Mechanics Institute being the first in country Victoria to become a public library). It was called a "free library" although only subscribers could borrow, non-subscribers were allowed to read on the premises.
thumb|right|240px|Horsham Mechanics Institute
World War II postponed plans to consign the library to the council as a municipal project, but in April 1949 the Horsham City Council took over control of the Mechanics Institute. They financed the library, and conducted it as a municipal free library – "City of Horsham Free Library" under a liberal subsidy from the State Government. The Institute building became Council property and was renovated and extended.
In 1951 the Wimmera Shire joined the Horsham City Council in financing the Library. An approach was made to the State Government Library Board in 1955 and in 1957 the Horsham Public Library was established, and The Wimmera & Dunmunkle Shires joined – the Library was then known as "The Horsham & Dunmunkle Municipal Libraries". (Wimmera Shire residents used the City resources until the introduction of the Bookmobile in 1967) In 1962 Lowan and Kaniva Shires joined.
After many meetings and discussions between the Shires and the Library Board, the inaugural meeting of the Wimmera Regional Library Service was held in June 1966 and the WRLS formed. From October 1966 it included the Shires of Arapiles, Birchip, Donald, Dunmunkle, Kaniva, Karkarooc, Lowan, Wimmera & Warracknabeal and Horsham City Council. With the joining of Birchip, Donald, Karkarooc & Warracknabeal Shires, the Library Service now covered a total of 10 municipalities, with an area of 7,871 square miles (18,000sq km) and a population of 40,694 people. Branches were at Horsham, Kaniva, Minyip, Murtoa, Nhill & Rupanyup. The Bookmobile opened in June 1967 operating in Birchip, Donald & Karkarooc Shires, and sites were at Birchip town & schools, Watchupga, Donald town & schools, Watchem, Hopetoun town & schools, Beulah town & schools, Lascelles, Patchewollock, Speed, Tempy & Woomelang. At this time the Addressograph Libromatic Scheme replaced the Browne System, this involved new book & borrower cards and complete borrower re-registration.
In March 1968 the bookmobile began service in Arapiles Shire. An offer of bookmobile service to Dunmunkle was rejected in 1969–70, however early in 1977 it was trialled, and this time the offer was accepted and the Minyip & Murtoa branches were closed in March 1981 and their stock transferred to Rupanyup.
In January 1975 a Library Council report into the Stawell Library joining the Wimmera Regional Library Service was released, but no further action was taken. Further discussions in March 1976 also stalled due to a lack of financial support from the Library Council.
Discussions began with the Shires of Kowree and Kara Kara and the Town of St Arnaud in June 1983 about the possibility of them joining the library service. Following their decision to join, service began on 1 October 1984 to St Arnaud Town and the Kara Kara Shire. The Kowree Shire Library amalgamated with the WRLS in March 1986. A Mobile service was provided to Goroke with branches in Edenhope, Harrow and a joint-use facility in Apsley (Apsley closed on 13 April 1987).
Computerisation of the library's collection was first discussed in March 1972, and conversion of the card catalogue to microfiche had begun September 1980. In 1988 as part of the introduction of a computerised library management system renovations were made to disused toilets at the rear of the Mibus Centre building to create a computer room, and storage area for the Mobile Library. A committee chose Stowe Computing on 1 December 1988, and the first AS/400 computer was installed on 2 February 1989. In April 1989 computerisation of stock began, the first branch to offer automated service was Horsham on 25 September 1989.
Stawell Regional Library finally amalgamated with WRLS in October 1993, and the Mobile library began to visit Stawell Shire sites on 31 January 1994.
Local government re-structure began in January 1995, this led to WRLS member council changing from 15 to 6 (Buloke, Hindmarsh, Horsham, Northern Grampians, West Wimmera & Yarriambiack), the size of the region increased to 36,800 km2. The new Library Corporation was gazetted in April 1996 as the Wimmera Regional Library Corporation. Local Government elections were held in March 1997, and councillors returned to office. The new Wimmera Regional Library Board first met 17 April 1997.
On 12 January 1996 Horsham was the first branch of the WRLC to log onto the Internet via local service provider WimmeraNet. Other branches started offering Internet access from December 1996. Also in 1996 the Library provided its first "Food for thought" program on community 3HHH radio.
WRLC joined the Murraylink consortia in 1998 – a group of public libraries initially based along the Murray River in Victoria. Murraylink programs included a joint materials tender and roving collections of materials.
The Library Management System changed from Stowe's BookPlus to Geac's Libs+ in June–July 1999. MacroPlan/PractiCo undertook a library review into different service delivery methods in 2000. This was followed in April 2001 by John Liddle of J.L. Management Services being employed by the State Government to assess the future direction of the library service & to develop a model which could be used for other library services. The Project extended from May 2001 to March 2002 and led to Service & Funding Agreements – a "fee for service" arrangement, rationalisation of service sites and opening hours.
Satellite Internet access was provided at Horsham branch & Headquarters as part of a Rural Libraries Online project 2000/01, designed to help rural libraries move to faster Internet access. In July 2003 the first ADSL Internet connections were established at Horsham & Stawell.
In 2005 discussion began about the purchase of a new Library Management System, and the decision was made to join the Swift Consortium, which was planning for a joint system purchase, in early 2006. The new Library Management System – Sirsi-Dynix's Unicorn system went live on 3 April 2007.
In July 2018 Buloke Shire withdrew from the Wimmera Regional Library Corporation.
In July 2020 Hindmarsh, Northern Grampians and Yarriambiack Councils withdrew from the Wimmera Regional Library Corporation.
Branches
Edenhope
The Kowree Shire had previously operated a stand-alone single municipality library service. An approach was made by the Shire in July 1968 for information and costs associated with entering the Library Service. The Library's proposal suggested a preference for a mobile service instead of deposit stations for the small towns. No action was taken and the options were investigated again in August 1983. Finally in 1985 after another report by the Library Council of Victoria, agreement was reached on amalgamation of the two library services. The Kowree stock was added into the Wimmera collection and the Kowree Shire joined the WRLS on 31 March 1986, with the Library located in the Shire Offices. The Library moved to the new Community Centre at 78 Elizabeth St in July 2020.
Goroke
The first library in the town was the Mechanics Institute in 1889. As part of the Kowree Free Library service, a small room in the Town Hall served as the Goroke Library. When the Kowree Shire joined the WRLS in 1986, a Mobile library service was initially provided to Goroke outside the Town Hall and outside the school. The Mobile ceased visiting in December 1987, and library services returned to the Town Hall until the Library moved across the road to a refurbished shop in July 2007. The official opening was on 14 July 2007 conducted by Minister Richard Wynne and West Wimmera mayor Darren Rayner.
Harrow
Library services are provided to the Harrow community from a room in the Harrow Hall. The entire collection and furniture was lost when the Hall burnt to the ground in 1976. When the new Hall was built on the same site, a room on the south side of the Hall was set aside as the Library. Following on the amalgamation of the Kowree Shire service with the WRLS, the Harrow branch, opens for 3 hours a week, with the majority of the book stock provided on a rotational basis from the Edenhope library.
Horsham
frame|Horsham LibraryThe Horsham Library began in the Mechanics Institute building in Pynsent Street, but in December 1968 it moved to a purpose-built area in the Mibus Memorial Cultural Centre in McLachlan St (site of the former Temperance Hall which the Council compulsorily acquired from its Trustees, with the neighbouring block owned by Mrs Elizabeth Nattrass). The Centre housed the Horsham Library, Library Headquarters, & Art Gallery.
The Mibus Centre was a memorial for Mick Mibus, Member for Lowan & Minister for Water Supply who died in 1964. It was opened by Mibus' widow, and the Premier Sir Henry Bolte unveiled the plaque.

25901108 | Green theory | Green theory is a theory of international relations (IR). In contrast to mainstream theories of IR, it posits environmental issues as central to the study of international relations. According to green theory, mainstream theories like neorealism and neoliberalism fail to understand environmental problems through their rationalist and state-centric frameworks of analysis. Green theory focuses on the study of global justice, international development, modernization, and security. Green perspectives in IR emerged in the 1970s as a response to the increase of transnational issues related to the environment. By the end of the 20th century, green theory had established itself within the discipline. Green theory aligns itself with postpositivism that emerged from the so-called third (or fourth) debate of IR. The theory can be divided into an international political economy-oriented wing and a cosmopolitan wing. Initially, the IPE wing, mainly interested in environmental regimes, was stronger, but subsequently many cosmopolitan theorists, like David Held, Andrew Linklater, Henry Shue, and Thomas Pogge, have made contributions related to environmental issues.
