Adelotypa annulifera is a species of riodinid butterfly found in South America (Guyana, Bolivia, Peru). It was first described by Frederick DuCane Godman in 1903. == Ecology == In 2016, researchers Phil Torres and Aaron Pomerantz in the Tambopata National Reserve in Peru discovered that the caterpillars of A. annulifera engaged in myrmecophily. They live on the shoots of bamboo species in the genus Guadua, providing sugary secretions to ants in exchange for protection. Four ant species have been observed tending the caterpillars: Ectatomma tuberculatum, Pheidole sp., Megalomyrmex balzani, and Paraponera clavata. Adult butterflies exhibited kleptoparasitism by taking fluids from nectaries also fed on by ants, without providing a reward to the ants. ==References== Category:Nymphidiini Category:Butterflies described in 1903 Category:Butterflies of South America Category:Lepidoptera of Bolivia Category:Lepidoptera of Guyana Category:Lepidoptera of Peru Category:Taxa named by Frederick DuCane Godman

Trypticase soy agar
Culture medium used in microbiology
Trypticase soy agar or tryptone soya agar (TSA) and Trypticase soy broth or tryptone soya broth (TSB) with agar are growth media for the culturing of bacteria. They are general-purpose, nonselective media providing enough nutrients to allow for a wide variety of microorganisms to grow. They are used for a wide range of applications, including culture storage, enumeration of cells (counting), isolation of pure cultures, or simply general culture. TSA contains enzymatic digests of casein and soybean meal, which provide amino acids and other nitrogenous substances, making it a nutritious medium for a variety of organisms. Glucose is the energy source. Sodium chloride maintains the osmotic equilibrium, while dipotassium phosphate acts as buffer to maintain pH. Agar extracted from any number of organisms is used as a gelling agent. The medium may be supplemented with blood to facilitate the growth of more fastidious bacteria or antimicrobial agents to permit the selection of various microbial groups from pure microbiota. As with any media, minor changes may be made to suit specific circumstances. TSA is frequently the base medium of other agar plate types. For example, blood agar plates (BAP) are made by enriching TSA plates with defibrinated sheep blood, and chocolate agar is made through additional cooking of BAP. Nutrient agar is also similar to TSA. One liter of the agar contains:Japanese Government, Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (2009, September 30) The Japanese Pharmacopeia 15th Edition Supplement 2. Ministerial Notification No. 425, p. 20 * 15 g tryptone * 5 g "soytone" – enzymatic digest of soybean meal * 5 g sodium chloride * 15 g agar

The Citroën 7U was a car produced by the French Citroën company between 1935 and 1938. With the introduction of the front-wheel drive Traction series, Citroën continued the rear-wheel drive production for potential customers who were apprehensive of the newcomer. The Rosalie 7U, along with the 11U were newly designed models using body shells from its predecessors, the Rosalie 8CV and 10/15CV, but incorporating an updated front-end style influenced by the "NH" Rosalie models and the Traction. The 1628 cc 4-cylinder engine was the same as used in the Traction 7 but was turned round to drive the rear axle. Some 7,400 examples of this particular model were produced at the Paris factory from 1935 until 1938 when the model was ceased.

The Human Condition I: No Greater Love (第一部 純愛篇/第二部 激怒篇) is a 1959 Japanese epic war drama film directed by Masaki Kobayashi. It is the first part of The Human Condition trilogy. == Plot == In World War II-era Japan, Kaji marries his sweetheart Michiko despite his misgivings about the future. To gain exemption from military service, he moves his wife to a large mining operation in Japanese-colonized Manchuria, where he serves as a labor chief assigned to a workforce of Chinese prisoners. Kaji aggravates the camp bureaucracy by implementing humane practices to improve both labor conditions and productivity, clashing with foremen, administrators, and the Kenpeitai military police. Ultimately his efforts to grant autonomy to the POWs are undermined by scheming officials, resulting in the electrocution of several prisoners and the beheading of others accused of attempted escape. When Kaji protests the brutality, he is tortured and then drafted into the army to relieve the camp supervisors of his disruptive presence. == Cast == * Tatsuya Nakadai as Kaji * Michiyo Aratama as Michiko * Chikage Awashima as Tōfuku Kin * Ineko Arima as Shunran Yō * Sō Yamamura as Okishima * Keiji Sada as Kageyama * Kōji Nanbara as Kao (as Shinji Nanbara) * Akira Ishihama as Chen * Kōji Mitsui as Furuya * Seiji Miyaguchi as Wang Heng Li * Eitaro Ozawa as Okazaki * Toru Abe as Sergeant Watai * Junkichi Orimoto as Sai * Masao Mishima as Manager Kuroki * Kyū Sazanka as Cho Meisan == References == Category:1959 films Category:Films directed by Masaki Kobayashi Category:Japanese films Category:Films with screenplays by Masaki Kobayashi

On October 2, 1925Mantelli, Brunello: Kurze Geschichte des italienischen Faschismus, 2008 at the Palazzo Vidoni-Caffarelli in Rome, the Vidoni Pact was signed between CGII (Confederazione Generale dell'Industria Italiana) and the General Confederation of Fascist Syndical Corporations' representatives (GCFSC). ==Fascist control== The pact abolished Catholic, Socialist and all other independent unions and declared Fascist-controlled unions to have a monopoly on labour representation. The industrialists were hugely reluctant to sign as they feared a united labour force would pose a significant threat in the years to come, but were willing to make concessions in order to appease the National Fascist Party.Roland Sarti, Fascism and the Industrial Leadership in Italy, 1919-40: A Study in the Expansion of Private Power Under Fascism, 1968 The pact also prohibited workers' councils, to the dismay of Edmondo Rossoni, head of the GCFSC, who saw worker and employer integration as an essential ingredient in corporatism. Evidence suggests that the CGII had pointed out to Mussolini that worker councils were dominated by socialists and therefore had to be disbanded.Roland Sarti, Fascism and the Industrial Leadership in Italy, 1919-40: A Study in the Expansion of Private Power Under Fascism, 1968 ==Arbitrator== The state was given the authority as sole arbitrator over capital-labour negotiations, significantly increasing the power of the state. Overall, it placed Prime Minister Benito Mussolini in a far greater position of control over that of the workers within industry, and acted to effectively ban free trade unions. The pact was signed during Mussolini's fascist control of Italy and was one of many steps taken to establish his dictatorship. ==References== Category:1925 in Italy Category:Political history of Italy Category:Italian Fascism Category:1925 documents

Substatic is the fourth solo album by New Zealand composer Peter Jefferies, released on September 29, 1998 through Emperor Jones. One of his most musically ambitious and emotionally complex efforts, it marks Jefferies' return to the completely instrumental format he had previously explored on his 1987 album At Swim 2 Birds. == Composition == Substatic is known to be one of Jefferies' most experimental and musically adventurous recordings. The album comprises five pieces of music, including a lengthy seventeen-minute suite titled "Three Movements". The compositions are based around repetitious rhythms created by Jefferies' pianodrum, a combination of a keyboard and the snare and bass drum sections of a drum set, and are partially improvised. The use of sampling is prominently used as part of the composition of Substatic. The piece "Index" includes sampled vocals of Jean Smith of Mecca Normal, taken from a 1995 live performance. "Damage" features audience noise which was recorded by Bruce Russell during a live performance. A digeridoo played by Alicia Aaparros Duran can be heard on the album's final track, "Three Movements". == Reception == Joe Garden of The A.V. Club was also enthusiastic in his review of the album, saying that the music covers "a wide breadth of emotions" and is "highly charged, mostly toward the negative end of the emotional spectrum." Ned Raggett of allmusic gave it three out of five stars and called it a "striking, varied album" with "intentionally and beautifully murky production." == Track listing == == Personnel == *Anita Galitis-Anker – gong on "Index", bells on "Damage", flute and synthesizer on "Three Movements" *Michael Hill – production, bass guitar on "Index", "Kitty Loop" and "Three Movements", acoustic guitar on "Index" and "Three Movements", electric guitar on "Three Movements" *Peter Jefferies – electric piano, grand piano, keyboards, drums, electric guitar, bass guitar == References == Category:1998 albums Category:Peter Jefferies albums

He is the only Chinese Canadian to be awarded the British Empire Medal, the highest honor that Britain awards to non-British citizens. ==Life== Chong was born in Vancouver on July 15, 1911. He had little formal education and was employed as a cook and houseboy. Chong was visiting Hong Kong when Japan invaded in 1941. He escaped to free China where he joined the British Army Aid Group, a paramilitary unit of MI9. Chong then was a British spy, known as Agent 50, who operated behind Japanese lines in occupied China. After the war Chong returned to Canada and operated a cafe on Vancouver Island. ==Wartime Experiences== Chong travelled back and forth between free and Japanese-occupied areas of China. Chong's main tasks were to smuggle medical supplies into the occupied area, and smuggle people and intelligence out. He dressed as a beggar and always travelled on foot, often walking 30 miles per day. His walking cane hid medicines and documents. The people Chong smuggled were British and Commonwealth subjects and stranded Allied aviators. Chong did not recognize two of his charges as the chief justice and prosecutor of Hong Kong, until after the war when he was called as a witness in a trial of a collaborator. Chong was captured by the Japanese and escaped twice. One time he escaped from the hold of a fishing boat. The other time he escaped immediately before execution when his compatriot spoke in Japanese and displayed the business card of a Japanese officer. ==References== Category:Canadian soldiers Category:Canadian people of Chinese descent Category:1911 births Category:2006 deaths Category:Canadian recipients of the British Empire Medal

The Rio Grande ground squirrel (Ictidomys parvidens) is a species of squirrel in the family Sciuridae. It is found in the south-western United States (Texas and New Mexico) and in north-eastern Mexico. ==Taxonomy and systematics== The Rio Grande ground squirrel was formerly considered to be a subspecies of the Mexican ground squirrel and, along with the other species of the genus Ictidomys, was classified in the much larger genus Spermophilus, until DNA sequencing of the cytochrome b gene showed that this group was paraphyletic to the prairie dogs and marmots, and could therefore no longer be retained as a single genus. As a result, Ictidomys is now considered as a genus in its own right. ==References== Category:Ictidomys Category:Mammals described in 1896

Cross-border traffic will therefore be limited to using the slow Hanoi–Đồng Đăng railway. ==References== Category:High-speed railway lines in China Category:Rail transport in Guangxi

Used to Be in Love
null
"Used to Be in Love" is a song by Australian indie-pop band The Jungle Giants. It was released in March 2018 as the fourth and final single from the band's third studio album Quiet Ferocity. The single was certified platinum in Australia in December 2019. Band member Sam Hales said "When we first recorded this song it wasn't even a dance song. The song was being super stubborn and I told it, 'If you don't want to get on the bus and go to the beach with everyone else then you can stay at home.' But then we put a 4x4 dance pattern in the song and it became something else entirely." At the Queensland Music Awards of 2019, "Used to Be in Love" won Rock Song of the Year.

Clethrogyna antiquoides
null
Clethrogyna antiquoides is a moth of the family Erebidae. It is found in most of Europe, the Ural, Armenia, Mongolia, and China. This species has commonly been placed in the genus Orgyia but molecular analyses support the genus Clethrogyna as a separate lineage.Wang, H. et al. (2015) Molecular phylogeny of Lymantriinae (Lepidoptera, Noctuoidea, Erebidae) inferred from eight gene regions. Cladistics 31(6):579-592 DOI: 10.1111/cla.12108 The wingspan is 20–24 mm for males. The females are wingless. Adult males are on wing from July to early September in one generation in western Europe. The larvae feed on Rubus chamaemorus, Sorbus aucuparia, Calluna vulgaris, Vaccinium uliginosum, Andromeda polifolia, and Empetrum nigrum. Larvae can be found from May to July. Pupation takes place in a conspicuous yellow cocoon. The females live in the cocoon and deposit the eggs there. The species hibernates as an egg.
