Beast (Trojan horse)

Beast is a Windows-based backdoor trojan horse, more commonly known in the hacking community as a Remote Administration Tool or a "RAT". It is capable of infecting versions of Windows from 95 to XP. Written in Delphi and released first by its author Tataye in 2002, it became quite popular due to its unique features. It used the typical client–server model where the client would be under operation by the attacker and the server is what would infect the victim. Beast was one of the first trojans to feature a reverse connection to its victims, and once established it gave the attacker complete control over the infected computer. The virus would be harmless until opened. When opened, the virus would use the code injection method to inject itself into other applications.

On a machine running Windows XP, removal of three files (“explorer.exe” (Windows Explorer), “iexplore.exe” (Internet Explorer), or “msnmsgr.exe” (MSN Messenger)) in safe mode with system restore turned off would disinfect the system.

Usage
The default ports used for the direct and reverse connections were 6666 and 9999 respectively, though the attacker had the option of changing these. Beast came with a built-in firewall bypasser and had the ability of terminating some Anti-Virus or firewall processes. It also came with a file binder that could be used to join two or more files together into one executable.

Muriel Hazel Wright

Muriel Hazel Wright (31 March 1889 – 27 February 1975) was an American teacher, historian and writer on the Choctaw Nation. A native of Indian Territory, she was the daughter of mixed-blood Choctaw physician Eliphalet Wright and the granddaughter of the Choctaw chief Allen Wright. She wrote several books about Oklahoma and was unofficially called "Historian of Oklahoma". She also was very active in the Oklahoma Historical Society and served as editor of the Chronicles of Oklahoma from 1955 to 1971.

Early life
Wright was born in Lehigh, Choctaw Nation, Indian Territory (now known as Lehigh, Oklahoma) in 1889. Her father was Eliphalet Wright, a Choctaw who had graduated from Union College and Albany Medical College. He had returned to the Choctaw Nation in 1895 to be a doctor for the Missouri-Pacific coal mines at Lehigh and to open a private medical practice. Eliphalet's father was Allen Wright, who was principal chief of the Choctaw Nation from 1866 to 1870.

Muriel's paternal grandmother was Harriet Newell Mitchell, a native of Dayton, Ohio. She came to Indian Territory as a Presbyterian missionary teacher and married Allen Wright in 1857. Harriet could claim descendence from people who had come to America aboard the Mayflower in 1620. Muriel's mother was Ida Belle Richards, who was also a missionary.

Muriel Wright attended Wheaton Seminary in Norton, Massachusetts. After returning to her home town, she completed a teacher's education course at East Central Normal School in Ada, Oklahoma in 1912. After getting her certificate, she went to work from 1912 until the mid 1920s as a teacher and as a principal in various schools in southeastern Oklahoma. She took time from 1916 – 1917 to attend Barnard College at Columbia University, where she studied English and history.

Career as historian and author
Always proud of her Choctaw heritage, her passion for Native American history blossomed after she met author and journalist Joseph B. Thoburn in 1914. He was a board member of the Oklahoma Historical Society and they collaborated on the four-volume Oklahoma: A History of the State and its People, published in 1929. She also authored three textbooks about the state's history which were used in public schools: The Story of Oklahoma, Our Oklahoma and The Oklahoma History.

In 1922, she joined the Oklahoma Historical Society (OHS), where she was very active for much of her life. After 1924, she devoted her time to writing about the Native Americans of Oklahoma. She contributed to and edited the OHS quarterly journal, The Chronicles of Oklahoma, although she was not formally given the title of editor until 1955.

Her 1951 book, A Guide to the Indian Tribes of Oklahoma, is still a standard source for information about the 67 tribes then living in Oklahoma. She covered topics such as each tribe's location, number of members, history, government and organization, contemporary life and culture, ceremonials and public dances, as well as their removal experiences and their adaptations to changes in Indian Territory.

During the 1950s, the Oklahoma Historical Society wanted to promote a new state-wide awareness of Oklahoma history by creating historical markers for sites that they deemed important to the subject. The project was led by George H. Shirk, with Wright doing the majority of the research for the inscriptions. Wright developed an initial list of 512 sites. The list was published in the Chronicles of Oklahoma in 1958 and had grown to 557 sites. Shirk and Wright then collaborated to produce the book Oklahoma Historical Markers, which focused on 131 of the sites they deemed most important. In 1966, she performed a similar project with LeRoy H. Fischer on Civil War Sites in Oklahoma, which identified each site and described its significance. She followed up this work by leading public tours of the sites, sponsored by the OHS.

Wright took a leading role in negotiating for Choctaw rights and compensation for the loss of their historic lands.

The North American Indian Women's Association named Wright the outstanding Indian woman of the 20th century in 1971.

Wright retired in 1973. She died of a stroke in Oklahoma City on February 27, 1975. She was buried at Rose Hill Burial Park in Oklahoma City. She also has a memorial marker at Boggy Depot Cemetery in Atoka, Oklahoma. Her historical papers are housed at the Oklahoma Historical Society in Oklahoma City.

Raphael Basch

Raphael Basch, also Rafael Basch (1813 – 22 January 1907) was a Bohemian-Austrian writer and politician. He was the adoptive father of Victor Basch (1863–1944).

Biography
Basch was born in 1813 in Prague, then part of the Austrian Empire. After the first disturbances leading to the Revolution of 1848, he went to Vienna and took an active part in the insurrection. There he founded the Reichstagblatt, which he continued at Kroměříž until the dissolution of the Constitutional Assembly in March 1849. He then joined the staff of the Österreichische Post of Vienna, which he represented at Berlin; later he served as the Paris correspondent for several newspapers. In 1855 he returned to Vienna, where he edited the Oesterreichische Zeitung, serving as official spokesman for Karl Ludwig von Bruck against Alexander von Bach’s policies that curtailed freedom of the press and empowered the Catholic Church to control education and family life. After Austria’s emperor Franz Joseph promulgated a new constitution in 1861, Basch acted in a similar capacity for the Anton von Schmerling ministry, with whose political party he remained connected until its fall.

Until 1875 Basch was engaged only in economic questions, but in that year he returned to political journalism. He represented the Neue Freie Presse at Paris; and, in close fellowship with Adolphe Thiers, Léon Gambetta, and Jules Barthélemy-Saint-Hilaire, he defended the republican policy against the men of 16 May.

Basch died on 22 January 1907 in Paris.

Literary works
He has published a number of political pamphlets;

Two of these, entitled Deutschland, Oesterreich, und Europa, and Oesterreich und das Nationalitätenrecht, Stuttgart, 1870 — which appeared under the pseudonym Ein Altoesterreicher — created on their appearance a great sensation in Austria.

Inmaculada Sign Language

Inmaculada Sign Language is a deaf-community sign language of the older generations of deaf in Lima, Peru. It is clearly related to Peruvian Sign Language (LSP), but is distinct enough to be considered a separate language.

The language is used by people who attended a school for the deaf, CEBE La Inmaculada de Barranco, before about 1960, when LSP was established as the national language for the deaf. The school had been opened in 1939. Inmaculada Sign Language has about half the influence from American Sign Language that LSP has, and the manual alphabet is rather different.

Neil Kevin Hennessy (born December 12, 1978) is a punk rock musician, music producer and engineer from Chicago, Illinois.

Hennessy currently plays in The Lawrence Arms, Colossal, The Falcon, The Smoking Popes, The Treasure Fleet, Strategies, and Demon Beach. He has also been a member of Noise By Numbers, Sundowner, Baxter, The Killing Tree, Quattro and played multiple shows with Teenage Bottlerocket. In late 2015, Hennessy took over rhythm guitar duties in fellow Chicago punk band Rise Against during their European tour. Rise Against frontman and vocalist guitarist Tim McIlrath had broken his hand and was unable to play guitar, forcing him to singing exclusively.

Hennessy works at Atlas Studios in Chicago with Matt Allison. He co-wrote the Rise Against song "Swing Life Away" with McIlrath, and also played percussion on the Less Than Jake album, GNV FLA.

Hennessy usually uses a Slingerland (1970s) drum kit, Zildjian cymbals, and Remo heads.

Canadian Tort Law/Trespass to person

Some of the main intentional torts against the person are:

 * Assault
 * Battery
 * False imprisonment

Assault
Assault is intentionally causing the victim to believe that he or she will be imminently, physically contacted against his or her will. No contact actually has to occur; swinging a clenched fist at a victim is assault, even if the fist misses the victim, as long as the victim believed it would make contact. Physical harm need not occur; the harm is in the apprehension.

The apprehended contact can come either from a gesture of the defendant, or by the defendant intentionally causing an object to threaten imminent contact. Pointing a pistol in the direction of a defendant and pulling the trigger is assault, even if it was not loaded.

The belief of imminent contact must be reasonable. If the defendant showed the plaintiff that the gun was not loaded, then the plaintiff cannot sue for assault if the defendant then points the gun at him.

A threat of force, such as "I am going to shoot you", can be an assault, if the threat is imminent. "I am going to shoot you in four years" is not an assault. A conditional threat of force can be an assault, such as an armed mugging ("Give me your wallet or I will shoot you"). On the other hand, a conditional threat of force that makes it clear that force would not actually be used is not assault. For instance, a threat such as "I would punch you, if the police weren't standing right there", is not an assault. Although it seems to be a threat of violence, it is implied that violence would not actually be carried out.

One of the most common defences to assault is consent. The contact must be unwanted. (One might say, then, that lack of consent is an element of assault, rather than consent is a defence.) If someone were to say, "point the gun at me", then one cannot subsequently sue for assault. Consent can be express (specifically written or spoken), or it can be implied (by actions or words that lead to the logical conclusion that contact is wanted). For instance, if one joins a hockey game, one cannot normally sue for assault after receiving a body-check. Implied consent extends only to reasonable apprehensions of contact. Joining in a hockey game does not give all of the other players a license to commit any act of violence that they think of.

Another defence to assault is self-defence. One is allowed to threaten an imminent contact against somebody else to prevent an assault that they reasonably believed was going to happen to them. The force used in self-defence must be proportional to the threat; however, judges often give some leeway to people who use violence in self-defence. The use of force must be the only option; if the defendant could have avoided the threatened assault in another way, such as running away, then the use of force in self-defence is not justified.

Battery
Battery is an unwanted physical contact. Unlike assault, where an apprehended threat is necessary while actual contact is not, battery requires actual physical contact and does not require imminent threat. For instance, if someone is kicked while asleep, the victim never apprehended the contact before it happened. Therefore, the victim was battered but not assaulted. In practice, of course, assault and battery often happen in the same incident.

Consent is a major defence to battery. When using this defence, the defendant must show that the consent was "informed", i.e., the plaintiff knew of the nature and consequences of consenting. This often arises in medical malpractice cases. If the patient agrees to heart surgery, but the surgeon performs other types of surgery not discussed with the patient while the patient is under anaesthetic, then that is battery.

In medical malpractice cases, the distinction between battery and negligence can get quite blurry. If the surgeon does not tell the patient all of the possible major side-effects of the surgery, then does it constitute battery, as the patient did not give informed consent? Judges have tended to classify most cases of medical malpractice as negligence, reserving battery for the most clear cases of lack of consent.

Consent that is coerced or incorrectly obtained through an unlawful use of power or influence is "vitiated", meaning that it is not really consent. For instance, a doctor using his ability to prescribe drugs to coerce a patient into consenting to battery vitiates the consent. Norberg v. Wynrib, [1992 2 S.C.R. 226.]

False Imprisonment
False imprisonment is the intentional, unlawful confinement of a person to a space. The person's imprisonment need not last a long time. Nor does the confinement have to be physical; it could be applied by psychological pressure (e.g., "If you leave now, I will tell everyone that you came here to buy drugs...") False imprisonment is, not surprisingly, used mostly against police officers for arresting someone unlawfully. The Criminal Code gives police officers some protection against lawsuits for false imprisonment.

Template talk:WAGR Locomotives

Extra categories
The naxboxes for other states list all rolling stock, ex government and other, in one box rather than a series of smaller ones. Is there a reason to restrict WA's only to ex WAGR locomotives?

Examples:

Mo7838 (talk) 12:00, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

 * There is no consensus for your changes. I have therefore reverted them a second time.  Articles about, eg, locomotives operated by the various UK private operators have a navbox only for locomotives (eg GWR, LNWR), on which this template is based.  It makes no sense to have a navbox lumping WAGR locomotives together indiscriminately with those of the Commonwealth Railways, Pacific National, etc (which cover more than one state), nor with those of private operators like Hamersley Iron (which had no links with the WAGR network) or CBH (which started operations only recently, long after the WAGR had ceased to operate freight sevices).  List of Western Australian locomotive classes is a sufficient means of combining links to articles about all of the locomotive classes that have operated in WA.  Nor does it make sense to lump WAGR locomotives in with railcars and other rolling stock (the most important printed sources, Gunzburg and May/Gray, don't do it either).  I might add that the Qld and (especially) NSW navboxes, in their present form, look to me like dog's breakfasts.  Why, eg, is there a section devoted mainly to railway preservation societies in a navbox supposedly about rolling stock? Bahnfrend (talk) 13:45, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
 * All posts have been compliant with the WP:BRD process, any suggestions changes are being made without seeking consensus are unfounded.

 * The rationale for expanding was that with with only a couple entries for Transperth Trains and Transwa, they didn't warrant separate navboxes. Thought better to expand the scope of the existing box than have a series of smaller ones.

 * The additions made were of rolling stock, that operated exclusively in WA, no additions of CR or PN stock. Fail to see the relevancy that because 2 cites only cover locomotives, that the navbox's parameters should be restricted to these.

 * Don't think the NSW navbox was a dog's breakfast, but agree some categories were clearly out of scope and it was in need of some consolidating. Appears an editor has been a bit too enthusiastic in expanding its contents, but we are probably all a bit guilty of that from time-to-time. Mo7838 (talk) 00:29, 8 May 2014 (UTC)
 * I completely agree with Mo (even though they're blocked for being a sockpuppet). I think that Template:WAGR Locomotives, Template:WAGR Railcars and Template:MRWA Locomotives should be combined, all of the eastern states + New Zealand do it like that. I don't agree with Bahn's comment that it looks like a 'dog's breakfast', it's called a navbox for a reason, so you can navigate to look for information. And in any case, you can use Wikipedia's own tools to hide and collapse parts of the table, so that way only the relevant section(s) are open for the reader to read. what are your thoughts? Fork99 (talk) 13:52, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
 * See Template:Victorian rolling stock for a decently ok looking example. Fork99 (talk) 13:56, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

 * I stand by what I wrote in 2014. Mo is a well-known disruptive editor who has used many, many sockpuppets, all of which have been blocked when detected. Additionally, there is an important difference between, on the one hand, WA, and, on the other hand, NSW, Qld, Vic (and NZ). For many years, WA (and SA) have had more than one major operator, whereas until recently NSW, Qld, Vic had only one, govt, major operator (and that is still the case in NZ). The difference is reflected in the list article List of Western Australian locomotive classes, which is, essentially, a whole page of the links that would need to be included, for locomotives alone, in the navbox you advocate. As of today, there are more major operators in WA than ever; they include Aurizon, BHP, CBH, FMG, Mineral Resources, Pacific National, Rio Tinto, Roy Hill, Transperth and Watco Australia, and it makes absolutely no sense to lump all of their locomotives together in one navbox also including links to locomotives of defunct WA operators such as Australian National, Goldsworthy Rail, Hamersley Iron, MRWA, and WAGR/Westrail, much less all of their present day and withdrawn other rolling stock as well. If Mo's and your logic were followed, you might as well create a single navbox for all of the rolling stock ever operated by the major rail companies in England, both present-day and defunct as well - a ridiculous dog's breakfast if ever there were one. Bahnfrend (talk) 14:22, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
 * There are private operators of freight trains in NSW, Vic, Qld, SA, etc too. As an example, Template:South Australian Railways locos does NOT include any private freight locomotives. There's just as many private operators in the eastern states. I'm merely suggesting that the state government's operator WAGR, its predecessors and successors are lumped together. But even then, how many more locomotive types are there for private operators in WA? Fork99 (talk) 14:30, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I don't agree with what you said about "putting all of England's rolling stock that I would support" in one navbox. First of all, yes that is ridiculous, just like if you were to do the same for the USA. Two, Australia's states and territories, and New Zealand have never ever ever ever had that many operators or the population or the popilation density required to support that many rail companies. Fork99 (talk) 14:33, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Also, you keep using the phrase 'dog's breakfast', I have a dog myself, if I were to create a navbox that looks like a dog's breakfast, I don't think I would pre-portion everything and divide up all of the food, oh the vegetables go there, and the meat goes there, oh you know what, the dog biscuit goes on the side. I didn't think so... Fork99 (talk) 14:37, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

Tender Class I?
The I Class in the Tender section links to NZR S Class, a 0-6-0T single fairlie. The class is also in the Tank section. Were the locomotives given a tender at some point? And if that is justification for the I Class being in the Tender section, shouldn't the original C Class also be in the Tender section? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Diesel 10 (talk • contribs) 02:35, 18 September 2020 (UTC)

What do the three or four columns represent?

It appears that .a'a means attentive, and I would guess that with some sort of modifier means inattentive or avoiding?

I see this format a lot in lojban references, but haven't seen an explanation for it. Thanks!

2019 World Athletics Championships – Men's 800 metres

The men's 800 metres at the 2019 World Athletics Championships was held at the Khalifa International Stadium in Doha from 28 September to 1 October 2019.

The winning margin was 1.13 seconds which as of 2024 remains the only time the men's 800 metres has been won by more than a second at these championships.

Summary
After the semi-finals, it was no surprise when front runner Wesley Vázquez went to the front of the final. Donavan Brazier and Marco Arop took the front of the line to follow his pace. 23.51 for the first 200 metres is fast. Down the first home stretch the rest of the field back off the fast pace, but Brazier stuck right behind Vázquez through a 48.96 first lap. The real surprise was noted kicker Amel Tuka was at the front of the chase pack, separating through the penultimate turn in chase of the leaders. When they hit the backstretch, Brazier went around Vázquez, who was showing the signs of the strain. By 600 metres in 1:15.16, Brazier had two metres on Vázquez, who had two metres on Tuka. Through the final turn, Brazier held the same gap on Tuka, but Vázquez faded. Ferguson Rotich was the next contender, three metres back, the rest of the chasers another six metres behind him. Down the stretch, Brazier was straining, pumping his arms, but Tuka's famed kick was not making up any ground. 40 metres out, Rotich passed Vázquez, but from far off the pace, Bryce Hoppel was gaining fast. Brazier crossed the line and raised his arms in celebration. Tuka held off Rotich who beat the fast moving Hoppel.

Brazier's winning time of 1:42.34 was the championship record, North American Continental record and moved him to =#9 on the all-time list.

Vera Panova

Vera Fyodorovna Panova (Вера Фёдоровна Панова; March 20 1905 – March 3, 1973) was a Soviet and Russian writer, novelist and playwright. She was a recipient of the Stalin Prize in 1947, 1948, and 1950.

Early life
Vera was born into the family of an impoverished merchant (later an accountant) in Rostov-on-Don. Her father, Fyodor Ivanovich Panov, built canoes and yachts as a hobby, and founded two yachting clubs in Rostov. When she was five, her father drowned in the Don River. After her father's death, her mother worked as a saleswoman. As a girl, she was taught by a family friend, an old school teacher named Anna Prozorovskaya. Vera credited Anna with instilling in her a passion for reading. Anna died after being with Vera for only a year. Prior to the October Revolution she studied for 2 years at a private gymnasium, before her formal education was stopped because of money problems in her family.

From her earliest years, Vera was an avid reader, especially of poetry, at which she tried her hand at an early age. Her reading included the works of Alexander Pushkin, Nikolai Gogol, and Ivan Turgenev. She also read numerous textbooks on science, geography, and history as a form of self-education. At the age of 17, she started working as a journalist on the Rostov newspaper Trudovoy Don (Working Don), publishing articles as V. Staroselskaya (the surname of her first husband Arseny Staroselsky whom she had married in 1925 and divorced 2 years later ) and Vera Veltman. She described her first editing job and her first steps in this career in her novel Sentimental Romance (1958). She learned newspaper work by experience, serving in turn as an assistant to the district organizer of labor correspondents, a reporter, and an essayist.

Career
In 1933, she began writing plays. In 1935, her second husband, Komsomolskaya Pravda journalist Boris Vakhtin, was arrested and imprisoned on Solovki where he died (the exact death date is unknown, probably the later thirties). The Gulag authorities allowed her only one meeting with Boris, which she described in her story Svidanie (The Meeting).

From 1940, she lived in Leningrad. The unexpected advance of the Nazis on the Leningrad Front found her in Tsarskoye Selo. She and her daughter were put in a concentration camp near Pskov, but they managed to escape to Narva, where they lived illegally in a destroyed synagogue. She then moved to the village of Shishaki to stay with relatives. There she began her first serious works, the plays Ivan Kosogor (1939) and In Old Moscow (1940). Although these 2 plays won prizes, Vera felt that the dramatic form confined her, and, by her own admission, she was unable to fit all that she wanted to say into its strict framework. She felt that she could work with greater freedom in the novel and story forms.

In 1943, when the Germans retreated from Ukraine, she moved to Molotov (now Perm). She worked for a local newspaper and published her first novel The Pirozhkov Family (later renamed Yevdokia, the source of a Soviet film produced by Tatyana Lioznova in 1961). In 1944, as a journalist, she was embedded for two months with a hospital train about which she wrote the novel Sputniki (1946; translated as The Train) that brought her a Stalin Prize in 1947. There was a Soviet film Poezd miloserdiya (Train of Mercy, 1961) and another TV-film Na vsyu ostavshuyuysya zhizn (For the Rest of One's Life, 1975) based on the novel; the scenario for the later film was written by Panova's son Boris Vakhtin.

In 1945, she married David Yakovlevich Ryvkin (1910–1980), a notable Russian science-fiction writer who wrote under the pseudonym of "David Dar". Together with her husband and his two children and her own family, she returned to Leningrad. In 1947, she published the novel Kruzhilikha, translated as Looking Ahead (Stalin Prize in 1948), about people working in a Ural factory. She had begun writing the novel in 1944, but had been interrupted by the hospital train assignment. In 1949, she wrote the novel Yasny Bereg (Bright Shore; Stalin Prize of 1950) about people working in a kolkhoz.

With the onset of the Khrushchev Thaw she wrote Vremena Goda (Span of the Year, 1953) about the relations of fathers and sons within the Soviet intelligentsia. The novel was immensely popular with the reading public, but Panova was criticized harshly in the press for her "naturalism" and "objectivism". In 1955, she wrote the novel Seryozha, one of the best works about children in Soviet literature. She published the stories Valya and Volodya, also about children, in 1959.

Panova held a place among the top Soviet writers. At the Writer's Congresses of 1954 and 1959, she was elected as a member of the Presidium of the Union of Soviet Writers. She was twice awarded the Order of the Red Banner of Labour (1955, 1965). As an established writer, she was allowed to travel to England, Scotland, and Italy, and in 1960 she toured the United States. Her published travel notes and articles, and an epilogue to the Russian translation of The Catcher in the Rye, by J. D. Salinger, show her affinity for Western life and culture.

Later life
In her later life, she published many works of fiction (most of them autobiographical or based on Russian history of the 17th century), plays, and film scripts. She helped many younger writers who later become famous, among them Yury Kazakov, Sergei Dovlatov (her secretary for many years), Viktor Konetzky, Andrei Bitov, and Viktor Golyavkin. Her son Boris Vakhtin (1930–1981) was a notable dissident and Russian writer, the founder of the group Gorozhane.

In 1967, she suffered a stroke that left her partially paralyzed. Though incapacitated, she continued to work with the help of her family and a number of secretaries until the day of her death. Vera Panova died in Leningrad in 1973 and is buried in Komarovo near Anna Akhmatova.

Working (TV series)

Working is an American sitcom television series that aired on NBC for two seasons from October 8, 1997 to January 25, 1999. The series was created and executive produced by Michael Davidoff and Bill Rosenthal. The series stars Fred Savage and an ensemble cast including Maurice Godin, Arden Myrin, Yvette Freeman, and Steve Hytner.

Synopsis
Working took a satirical (and sometimes over-the-top) look at office life within a big corporate company. The show starred Fred Savage as the naive Matt Peyser who had just graduated from college and was ready to climb the corporate ladder. His ideals are constantly challenged by his boss, Tim Deale, played by Maurice Godin. Other characters included dim-witted Jimmy (Dana Gould), under-appreciated secretary Hal (Sarah Knowlton), overly perky Abby Cosgrove (Arden Myrin), acerbic Delaney (Steve Hytner), and no-nonsense manager Evelyn (Yvette Freeman), that Matt makes friends and work with.

Due to faltering ratings, the network attempted to breathe new life into the show during the second season with some cast changes. This included writing out the characters of Jimmy and Hal. They were replaced by Debi Mazar as the ruthless Liz and Rebecca McFarland as Val (As an in-joke, when Matt first sees Liz and Val he mistakenly calls them Jimmy and Hal). During the series run, Danica McKellar, formerly Savage's costar in The Wonder Years, made two guest-appearances playing a woman Savage's character meets in a bar, and of whom he says "she reminds me of a girl I grew up with!" Ratings for the series didn't improve, however, and NBC canceled Working in January 1999. 35 of the 39 episodes produced were aired.

Theme song
The show used a sound-alike version of Devo's cover of the song "Working in the Coal Mine", set over top of scenes of work, including marching workers from the film Metropolis, frantic work scenes from Terry Gilliam's Brazil and office scenes from Billy Wilder's The Apartment. The vocals of the theme song were removed for the USA Network broadcasts.

Cast and characters

 * Fred Savage as Matt Peyser
 * Maurice Godin as Tim Deale
 * Yvette Freeman as Evelyn Smalley
 * Sarah Knowlton as Hal Blum (season 1)
 * Arden Myrin as Abby Cosgrove
 * Todd Waring (pilot only) and Steve Hytner as John Delaney
 * Joey Slotnick (pilot only) and Dana Gould as Jimmy Clarke (season 1)
 * Kate Hodge as Chris Grant (10 episodes, season 1)
 * Rebecca McFarland as Val Gibson (season 2)
 * Debi Mazar as Liz Tricoli (season 2)

Rizal Provincial Board

The Rizal Provincial Board is the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (provincial legislature) of the Philippine province of Rizal.

The members are elected via plurality-at-large voting: the province is divided into four districts, the first and second district of Rizal sending four members each, and Antipolo's two districts sending one member each to the provincial board; the number of candidates the electorate votes for and the number of winning candidates depends on the number of members their district sends. The vice governor is the ex officio presiding officer, and only votes to break ties. The vice governor is elected via the plurality voting system province-wide.

The districts used in appropriation of members is coextensive with the legislative districts of Rizal and the legislative districts of Antipolo.

Aside from the regular members, the board also includes the provincial federation presidents of the Liga ng mga Barangay (ABC, from its old name "Association of Barangay Captains"), the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK, youth councils) and the Philippine Councilors League (PCL).

Current members
These are the members after the 2022 local elections and 2018 barangay and SK elections:

Solvated electron

A solvated electron is a free electron in a solution, in which it behaves like an anion. An electron's being solvated in a solution means it is bound by the solution. The notation for a solvated electron in formulas of chemical reactions is "e−". Often, discussions of solvated electrons focus on their solutions in ammonia, which are stable for days, but solvated electrons also occur in water and many other solvents – in fact, in any solvent that mediates outer-sphere electron transfer. The solvated electron is responsible for a great deal of radiation chemistry.

Ammonia solutions
Liquid ammonia will dissolve all of the alkali metals and other electropositive metals such as Ca, Sr, Ba, Eu, and Yb (also Mg using an electrolytic process ), giving characteristic blue solutions. For alkali metals in liquid ammonia, the solution is blue when dilute and copper-colored when more concentrated (> 3 molar). These solutions conduct electricity. The blue colour of the solution is due to ammoniated electrons, which absorb energy in the visible region of light. The diffusivity of the solvated electron in liquid ammonia can be determined using potential-step chronoamperometry.

Solvated electrons in ammonia are the anions of salts called electrides.
 * Na +  6 NH3  →  [Na(NH3)6]+ + e−

The reaction is reversible: evaporation of the ammonia solution produces a film of metallic sodium.

Case study: Li in NH3

A lithium–ammonia solution at −60 °C is saturated at about 15 mol% metal (MPM). When the concentration is increased in this range electrical conductivity increases from 10−2 to 104 Ω−1cm−1 (larger than liquid mercury). At around 8 MPM, a "transition to the metallic state" (TMS) takes place (also called a "metal-to-nonmetal transition" (MNMT)). At 4 MPM a liquid-liquid phase separation takes place: the less dense gold-colored phase becomes immiscible from a denser blue phase. Above 8 MPM the solution is bronze/gold-colored. In the same concentration range the overall density decreases by 30%.

Other solvents
Alkali metals also dissolve in some small primary amines, such as methylamine and ethylamine and hexamethylphosphoramide, forming blue solutions. THF dissolves alkali metal, but a Birch reduction (see ) analogue does not proceed without a diamine ligand. Solvated electron solutions of the alkaline earth metals magnesium, calcium, strontium and barium in ethylenediamine have been used to intercalate graphite with these metals.

Water
Solvated electrons are involved in the reaction of alkali metals with water, even though the solvated electron has only a fleeting existence. Below pH = 9.6 the hydrated electron reacts with the hydronium ion giving atomic hydrogen, which in turn can react with the hydrated electron giving hydroxide ion and usual molecular hydrogen H2.

Solvated electrons can be found even in the gas phase. This implies their possible existence in the upper atmosphere of Earth and involvement in nucleation and aerosol formation.

Its standard electrode potential value is -2.77 V. The equivalent conductivity of 177 Mho cm2 is similar to that of hydroxide ion. This value of equivalent conductivity corresponds to a diffusivity of 4.75 $$\times 10^{-5}$$ cm2s−1.

Reactivity
Although quite stable, the blue ammonia solutions containing solvated electrons degrade rapidly in the presence of catalysts to give colorless solutions of sodium amide:
 * 2 [Na(NH3)6]+e− →  H2  +  2 NaNH2  +  10 NH3

Electride salts can be isolated by the addition of macrocyclic ligands such as crown ether and cryptands to solutions containing solvated electrons. These ligands strongly bind the cations and prevent their re-reduction by the electron.
 * [Na(NH3)6]+e− +  cryptand →  [Na(cryptand)]+e−+  6 NH3

The solvated electron reacts with oxygen to form a superoxide radical (O2.−). With nitrous oxide, solvated electrons react to form hydroxyl radicals (HO.).

Applications
Solvated electrons are involved in electrode processes, a broad area with many technical applications (electrosynthesis, electroplating, electrowinning).

A specialized use of sodium-ammonia solutions is the Birch reduction. Other reactions where sodium is used as a reducing agent also are assumed to involve solvated electrons, e.g. the use of sodium in ethanol as in the Bouveault–Blanc reduction.

Work by Cullen et al. showed that metal-ammonia solutions can be used to intercalate a range of layered materials, which can then be exfoliated in polar, aprotic solvents, to produce ionic solutions of two-dimensional materials. An example of this is the intercalation of graphite with potassium and ammonia, which is then exfoliated by spontaneous dissolution in THF to produce a graphenide solution.

History
The observation of the color of metal-electride solutions is generally attributed to Humphry Davy. In 1807–1809, he examined the addition of grains of potassium to gaseous ammonia (liquefaction of ammonia was invented in 1823). James Ballantyne Hannay and J. Hogarth repeated the experiments with sodium in 1879–1880. W. Weyl in 1864 and C. A. Seely in 1871 used liquid ammonia, whereas Hamilton Cady in 1897 related the ionizing properties of ammonia to that of water. Charles A. Kraus measured the electrical conductance of metal ammonia solutions and in 1907 attributed it to the electrons liberated from the metal. In 1918, G. E. Gibson and W. L. Argo introduced the solvated electron concept. They noted based on absorption spectra that different metals and different solvents (methylamine, ethylamine) produce the same blue color, attributed to a common species, the solvated electron. In the 1970s, solid salts containing electrons as the anion were characterized.

Hans G. Kaper

Hans Gerard Kaper (born June 10, 1936) is a Dutch-American mathematician who worked for many years at Argonne National Laboratory until his retirement in 2008. He continues to hold adjunct professorships in mathematics and statistics at Georgetown University and in music at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, where he has been a long-term collaborator on the UIUC Computer Music Project.

Kaper was born in Alkmaar, Netherlands, and earned a PhD in 1965 from the University of Groningen under the supervision of Adriaan Isak van de Vooren. He taught briefly at Groningen before joining Argonne. At Argonne, he directed the Mathematics and Computer Science Division. He is also the editor-in-chief of SIAM News, the newsletter of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM). In 1989 he became correspondent of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences.

Since retiring, Kaper has investigated the mathematics of climate change, and directs the NSF-funded Mathematics and Climate Research Network. With Hans Engler of Georgetown, he is a co-author of the book Mathematics and Climate (SIAM, 2013),   which won the 2013 ASLI Choice Award of the Atmospheric Science Librarians International.

In 2009, Kaper and his son Tasso J. Kaper (a mathematician at Boston University) were simultaneously honored as fellows of SIAM.
