Thomas H. Hudson

Thomas H. Hudson (born November 23, 1946), is a lawyer from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, who from 1976 to 1988 was a Democratic three-term member of the Louisiana State Senate for District 15, based about East Baton Rouge Parish. He was the State Senate President Pro Tempore in his third term from 1984 to 1988.

The son of Henry E. Hudson and the former Cecile Stanford, Hudson was born in Russellville in Pope County in northwestern Arkansas. He graduated from both Louisiana State University and Louisiana State University Law Center in Baton Rouge. He is a Presbyterian.

Hudson won the District 15 state Senate seat in the first ever nonpartisan blanket primary held on November 1, 1975. He unseated incumbent J. D. DeBlieux, another Baton Rouge Democrat lawyer. A favorite of the civil rights community, DeBlieux actually lost the African-American vote to Hudson because DeBlieux refused to give black ministers funding for their pledged support. "You should be raising money for me and giving me money to help in my election. I shouldn't be giving you money," DeBlieux told the clergymen. He added that he never gave the ministers any funds.

In 1986, while midway in his last Senate term, Hudson waged a challenge to Republican State Representative Richard Hugh Baker of Baton Rouge for Louisiana's 6th congressional district vacated by Republican Henson Moore, ran instead unsuccessfully for the U.S. Senate seat vacated by Democrat Russell B. Long. Baker prevailed with 76,833 votes (51 percent) to Hudson's 67,774 (45 percent). The remaining 6,120 votes (4 percent) was held by a second Democrat, Willis Erwin Blackwell, Sr.

Hudson did not seek a fourth term in the Senate, an option no longer allowed for Louisiana lawmakers who are restricted to three terms. He was succeeded by a fellow Democrat Baton Rouge lawyer, Larry S. Bankston, son of local Democrat powerhouse Jesse Bankston.

William Grant (businessman)

William Grant (18 December 1839 – 1923) was a Scottish distiller and entrepreneur who founded William Grant & Sons, the manufacturer of Glenfiddich, as such, the first company in the world to market a true single malt whisky and a leading brand today.

Life
Grant was descended from Clan Grant, which arrived in Speyside after being rewarded with land for "services to the king".In 1745, three brothers fought in the Jacobite rebellion against Hanover. Alexander Grant survived the Battle of Culloden but had to flee to Banffshire where he was hidden by a clan chief.

Alexander Grant's great-grandson, William Grant, was born in 1839 in Dufftown, Scotland. When he was seven he began herding the family cattle in the hills. He then worked as an apprentice shoemaker and a limeworks employee. He did, however, receive a good education. Consequently, in 1866 he became a bookkeeper at the local Distillery. He gained an appreciation for the production of whisky and became manager of the distillery, where he worked for 20 years. His wife, Elizabeth, had nine children.

Throughout this period of his life he saved money to set himself up as a distiller. In 1886, he quit his job, purchased the necessary land, materials and machines, and built the Glenfiddich Distillery with the help of his 9 children. On Christmas day in 1887, his distillery began operation, pioneering single malt Scotch whisky. Until Glenfiddich only blended brands were common.

Glenfiddich whisky from William Grant & Sons proved successful and so in 1892 he built a second distillery next door in Dufftown, known as the Balvenie Distillery. His daughter Isabella married Charles Gordon, the company's first salesman. In 1909, Charles Gordon began travelling to export Glenfiddich around the world. By 1914, he had established distribution networks in 30 countries, and today the company exports to 180 countries.

Death
William Grant died in 1923. In the 2008 Sunday Times Rich List, his family were ranked 86th richest in the UK, and 3rd richest in Scotland. In the Sunday Times Rich List 2013, the Grant and Gordon family were listed as the second richest family in Scotland.

His grandson William Grant, Lord Grant
(1909–1972) was an advocate who served as Solicitor General for Scotland, Lord Advocate, and Lord Justice Clerk from 1962 to 1972.

Supercentenarian granddaughter
His granddaughter was a woman named Janet Roberts (née Gordon; 13 August 1901 - 6 April 2012) who lived to be supercentenarian. Bottles of whisky were produced in her honour to mark her 100th, 105th, 107th and 110th birthdays. She died in her home at the advanced age of 110. She was the oldest living person in Scotland.

Nash Mill

Nash Mill was a paper mill in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom. The local residential area (Nash Mills) takes its name from the mill.

Early records
There was originally a corn-mill recorded in Domesday which belonged, in the Middle Ages, to the Abbey of St Albans.

Paper mill
The mill was purchased in 1811 by John Dickinson. It had been converted to papermaking by A. Blackwell at the end of the eighteenth century and was a half mile from Dickinson's original Apsley Mill on the Grand Junction Canal. The mill-house, called Nash House, became the family home for Dickinson and his new wife Ann (née Grover) whose father Harry Grover supported this business development through his Grover's Bank. In a very few years Nash Mill was renowned for its production of tough thin paper for Samuel Bagster's "Pocket Reference Bible".

A major fire in 1813 was a setback, but, being covered by insurance, enabled redevelopment towards large scale production and by 1825 steam power had been installed, powered by coal delivered by canal. John Dickinson & Co. Ltd had their Engineering Department at Nash Mills until 1888 (managed by Leonard Stephenson), when it was transferred to Apsley Mill. The production of fine rag paper on electrically driven machines was a successful innovation at Nash.

There was unrest amongst the workers in 1821 when pay was cut in response to declining trade. Local leaders of the Society of Papermakers were dismissed and replaced by recruits from Abbots Langley. The dismissed workers and their families, living in tied cottages, suffered distress and some "went on the parish". After some disruption and even sabotage, the situation calmed.

In 1823 and in 1826, there were repeated mechanical problems. The mill maintained its own fire brigade with steam fire engine.

By the end of the nineteenth century, Nash Mill, which was small and had a reputation for independence, experienced a drop in profitability. Continuous minor changes were implemented until, in 1926 it underwent improvements with expansion, remodelling and refurbishment.

Closure and redevelopment
In 1999, the paper mills owned by John Dickinson in the Apsley area were closed and the land was redeveloped. Nash Mill, however, was sold to the international Sappi Group and continued to make paper until 2006. This mill was closed and subsequently sold; the warehouse business was relocated to Dunstable. Housing redevelopment plans were publicised in September 2009. By late 2010, the site had been largely cleared, retaining Nash House, Stephenson's Cottage and a war memorial.

Majulah Singapura

Majulah Singapura (; ; ) is the national anthem of Singapore. Composed by Zubir Said in 1958 as a theme song for official functions of the City Council of Singapore, the song was selected in 1959 as the island's anthem when it attained self-government. Upon full independence in 1965, Majulah Singapura was formally adopted as Singapore's national anthem. By law, the anthem must be sung with Malay lyrics, but there are authorised translations of the lyrics of the anthem in Singapore's three other official languages: English, Mandarin and Tamil.

Originally composed in the key of G major, the national anthem was officially relaunched in 2001 in the lower key of F major as it was said to allow for a "grander and more inspiring arrangement".

The national anthem is regularly performed or sung in schools and armed forces camps at ceremonies held at the beginning and/or the end of each day, during which the national flag is also raised and lowered and the national pledge is taken. Singaporeans are especially encouraged to sing the national anthem on occasions of national celebration or national significance such as at the National Day Parade, at National Day observance ceremonies conducted by educational institutions and government departments and at sporting events at which Singapore teams are participating.

History

The composition of Majulah Singapura occurred during a push for independence from the United Kingdom. While Singapore was a British colony, its national anthem was "God Save the King (or Queen)". In 1951, the colony was conferred city status by a royal charter from King George VI. In 1958, Ong Pang Boon, the Deputy Mayor of the City Council of Singapore, approached Zubir Said, a score arranger and songwriter with Cathay-Keris Film Productions, to compose a theme song for the Council's official functions to be titled Majulah Singapura (Malay for "Onward Singapore"). This phrase was chosen as it was a motto to be displayed in the Victoria Theatre after its renovation in 1958.

Zubir took a year to finish composing the music and lyrics for the song. In a 1984 oral history interview, he recalled the process: "[T]he difficulty is in such a short melody, I have to put in all the words.... [I]t must be very simple, understandable for all the races in Singapore.... I consult also  an author in Malay language so that I can do it in proper Malay language but not too deep and not too difficult." Summing up his philosophy when composing the anthem, Zubir cited the Malay proverb "Di mana bumi dipijak, di situ langit dijunjung" ("You should hold up the sky of the land where you live").

The completed composition was first performed on 6 September 1958 by the Singapore Chamber Ensemble during the grand finale of a concert staged in the Victoria Theatre to celebrate its official reopening.

In 1959, Singapore attained self-government and the City Council was dissolved. The Government felt that a national anthem was needed to unite the different races in Singapore. The Deputy Prime Minister Toh Chin Chye selected the City Council's song as it was already popular. At Toh's request, Zubir modified the lyrics and melody, and the revised song was adopted by the Legislative Assembly on 11 November 1959. On 30 November, the Singapore State Arms and Flag and National Anthem Ordinance 1959 was passed to regulate the use and display of these national emblems.

Majulah Singapura was formally introduced to the nation on 3 December when Yusof bin Ishak was inaugurated as the Yang di-Pertuan Negara, Singapore's head of state. At the same occasion, which also marked the launch of "Loyalty Week", the national flag and the state crest were introduced. After Singapore's full independence from Malaysia on 9 August 1965, Majulah Singapura was formally adopted as the Republic's national anthem.

Use

Occasions

In Singapore, primary schools at lower levels, lessons relating to the national anthem and the singing of the national anthem are carried out as part of the civics and moral education programme. The national anthem is sung in all mainstream schools and armed forces camps at ceremonies held at the beginning and/or the end of each day, during which the national flag is also raised and lowered and the Singapore National Pledge is taken. Both the anthem and the national pledge must not be used for commercial situations.

Singaporeans are especially encouraged to sing the national anthem on occasions of national celebration or national significance, such as at the National Day Parade, at National Day observance ceremonies conducted by educational institutions and government departments and at sporting events at which Singapore teams are participating. In November 2004, Olivia Ong, an 18-year-old Singaporean based in Tokyo, sang Majulah Singapura at the 2006 FIFA World Cup Asian qualifying rounds at Saitama Stadium in Saitama, Japan.

Two months later in January 2005, Singapore Idol Taufik Batisah was invited to become the first performer to sing Majulah Singapura at an international football game at the National Stadium in Singaporethe return leg of the Tiger Cup (now the AFF Football Championship) final between Singapore and Indonesia in Singapore. Due to National Service commitments, Taufik had to decline and was replaced by singer Jai Wahab. In July 2005, Singaporean singer and actress Jacintha Abisheganaden sang the national anthem at the EsplanadeTheatres on the Bay during the opening ceremony of the 117th Session of the International Olympic Committee, at which London was selected to host the 2012 Summer Olympics.

In August 2019, retired local rocker singer Ramli Sarip sang a "soul-stirring" rocker rendition of the national anthem at the annual National Day Parade, which was received with mixed reviews and criticisms. As a ground-up initiative, a music video based on Sarip's rendition was released on 3 December 2019 as well. Many netizens lambasted the rendition as if it is the funeral version. Even Dr. Rohana Zubir (daughter of the late Zubir Said who was the original composer) came out to criticise the rocker's rendition in an open letter in public, she wrote that, "Sadly, the revised rendition of 'Majulah Singapura' lacks the quality, the oomph, of a national anthem. It is rather tortuous to listen to." She added: "The people of Singapore are wonderfully creative but this creativity should not extend to meddling with the musical score of the country's national anthem. This is one area where there should not be change. It is also important for Singaporeans to be proud of their history and to respect individuals, such as my father, for their contribution to nation-building."

Salutes
It is conventional for persons present when the national anthem is performed to stand with their arms by their sides.

When the national flag is raised or lowered and the anthem is played, persons in military or paramilitary uniforms who are outdoors don their head dress and face the flag. If they are in formation under the orders of a commander, only the commander salutes; otherwise, all service personnel salute. Saluting is unnecessary if service personnel are indoors when a flag raising or lowering ceremony takes place. In such cases, persons need only stop what they are doing and stand at attention.

Other uses
The national anthem is frequently played at sign-ons and sign-offs of TV and radio stations in Singapore, but that use of the anthem has declined somewhat by the emergence of 24-hour stations:
 On television, Mediacorp's Channel 5 and Channel 8 played the anthem just before 6:00 am daily to signal the start of their respective channel's broadcast day. The same practice is done on CNA's domestic feed throughout the country.
During its run on television, Channel U's founder Singapore Press Holdings initiated the use of authorised translations during the anthem at sign-ons and sign-offs of channels (depending on the respective channel's main language). The practice ended by 1 January 2005, when SPH's MediaWorks properties were merged with Mediacorp; the latter revived the use in 2012, albeit with the translated lyrics only appeared on channels outside Malay.
 On radio, Mediacorp's radio stations begin their daily broadcast by playing the abridged version of the anthem (consisting of the first six bars) at exactly 6:00 am, except Malay station Warna 94.2FM which plays it at 5:00 am as a way of protecting the protocol from reaching the Islamic Azan Subuh (which occurs between around 5:25 and 5:58 am). SPH Radio (a subsidiary of Singapore Press Holdings), meanwhile, plays the anthem in full on all of its five stations at 6:00 am; since the launch of CNA938 in 2019, it became Mediacorp's only station to play the full version due to its audio simulcast of CNA's domestic television feed overnight.

The national anthem has lent its name to the Majulah Connection, a Singapore-based not-for-profit organization set up November 2002 to connect Singapore with overseas Singaporeans and friends of Singapore. The organisation was formally established as a non-governmental organization (NGO) in January 2003.

Guidelines for use
The use of the national anthem is governed by Part IV of the Singapore Arms and Flag and National Anthem Rules made under the Singapore Arms and Flag and National Anthem Act. These rules provide as follows:

The national anthem may be performed or sung on any appropriate occasion. In particular, it must be performed when the President receives a general salute.
When the national anthem is performed or sung, every person present must stand as a mark of respect.
As regards musical arrangements of the national anthem:
Any person performing or singing the national anthem must do so according to the official arrangement set out in the Third Schedule to the Act or any other arrangement permitted under the next paragraph of the Act.
The national anthem may be rearranged in any manner that is in keeping with the dignity due to it, subject to the following conditions:
(a) the national anthem must not be incorporated into any other composition or medley; and
(b) every arrangement of the national anthem must accurately reflect the complete tune and the complete official lyrics of the National Anthem.
Any person who sings the national anthem must follow the official lyrics and must not sing any translation of those lyrics.

It is an offence for any person to knowingly perform or sing the national anthem in contravention of rule 13(1) (not performing or singing the anthem according to the official arrangement or any other permitted arrangement) or 13(3) (not singing the anthem according to the official lyrics or singing a translation of the lyrics); the penalty is a fine not exceeding S$1,000.

In addition, guidelines issued by the Ministry of Communications and Information (MCI) state that either instrumental or vocal versions of the national anthem may be performed and that dignity and decorum should be observed whenever the anthem is played or sung.

Arrangements and recordings
An abridged version of Majulah Singapura had been used by official bodies since 1963, but an expanded version, used only at grand ceremonial functions, exists. The versions were arranged by an Englishman, Michael Hurd. The arrangement was first recorded by the Singapore Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Lim Yau in 1989.

The original version of the national anthem was in the key of G major, but in 1983, schools were issued an educational tape describing common mistakes made in singing the anthem and given the option of singing the anthem in F major. (It was the very version that was first demonstrated to the public during the 1986 Singapore National Day Parade.) In 1993, the shorter version of Majulah Singapura was declared to be the official one.

On 19 January 2001, Majulah Singapura was officially relaunched in the F-major key, as it was said to be a "grander and more inspiring arrangement" of the anthem. The Ministry of Information and the Arts (MITA, now the Ministry of Communications and Information (MCI)) took more than a year to produce the new version. Its main objective was to make the anthem more accessible to all Singaporeans. In May 2000, several leading local composers were invited to rearrange the national anthem in F major. An evaluation panel headed by Bernard Tan selected the version submitted by Cultural Medallion winner Phoon Yew Tien. Phoon's orchestration employed a slower tempo and used more instruments to create a majestic rendition of the anthem. MITA then commissioned Ken Lim to produce a recording by the Singapore Symphony Orchestra conducted by Lim Yau, which was carried out at the Victoria Concert Hall on 20 November 2000. The new arrangement was recorded in seven versions, including two orchestral versions (instrumental, and with soloist Jacintha Abisheganaden and the Singapore Youth Choir) and a piano solo version.

On 3 December 2019, a new recording of Majulah Singapura by the Singapore Symphony Orchestra was released with improvements in sound quality. The new version was first broadcast at National Gallery, exactly 60 years after the anthem was first released. In addition, this version is 5 seconds shorter than the 2001 recording. The new version was recorded at The Esplanade Concert Hall on 7 August 2019, it still uses Phoon Yew Tien's arrangement; albeit with more young voices.

Lyrics

Original lyrics as the anthem of the City Council of Singapore
The original lyrics are as follows (in the pre-1972 Malay spelling):

Mari kita ra'yat Singapura,
Bangun dengan bersatu sama-sama.
Rukon damai dan bantu membantu,
Supaya kita sama-sama maju.

Kita hidup aman dan sentosa
Kerja sama menuju bahagia
Chita-chita kita yang mulia:
Berjaya Singapura!

Mari-lah kita bersatu
Dengan semangat yang bahru
Samua kita berseru:
Majulah Singapura!
Majulah Singapura!

Mari-lah kita bersatu
Dengan semangat yang bahru
Samua kita berseru:
Majulah Singapura!
Majulah Singapura!

English Translation:

Come fellow Singaporeans,
(Let's) renew life as one nation.
With peace and effort,
we move forward together.

We live in peace and cooperation
to achieve happiness
(May) our noble aspiration (make)
Singapore successful!

Come, let us unite
With a new spirit
(Together) we all proclaim:
Onward Singapore!
Onward Singapore!

Come, let us unite
With a new spirit
(Together) we all proclaim:
Onward Singapore!
Onward Singapore!

In its original composition, an instrumental interlude of the first two verses follows the chorus of the song, then the chorus is sung twice to finish it. Zubir Said modified the song from there, as requested by Toh Chin Chye, by removing 8 bars starting from "Bangun dengan bersatu sama-sama..." to "...kerja sama menuju bahagia!" in order to bring forward the emphasis of the 8th line "Berjaya Singapura!". The move was also seen as making the anthem more neutral as the eight bars also contained subtle motives brought from Malay musical elements. Also, the interlude was removed in the national anthem version.

Translations
Interviewed by the Oral History Department in 1989, Dr. Toh Chin Chye said it was appropriate for the national anthem to be in Malay, "the indigenous language of the region, as English is not native to this part of the world." He felt that the "Malay version of the national anthem would appeal to all races... it can be easily understood. And at the same time [it] can be easily remembered... . [I]t must be brief, to the point;... and can be sung". However, on 22 July 1991, the English daily newspaper The Straits Times reported that during a meeting between the then Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong and community leaders, a group of grassroots leaders and a lawyer had suggested that "adjustments" be made to the national anthem. The given reason was that many Singaporeans could not sing it in Malay and so did not have "strong feelings" or "strong emotions when they sing the national anthem".

In particular, some grassroots leaders argued that since the Chinese constitute a majority of the population, a Mandarin version of the anthem should be used. The Prime Minister's response was that he would keep the national anthem as it was but would ensure that translations in other mother tongues were more easily available. The proposal to change the lyrics was also criticized by former Deputy Prime Minister S. Rajaratnam, who felt that the Malay lyrics of the anthem were so simple that "anyone over the age of five, unless mentally retarded, had no difficulty singing the anthem. All Singaporean children of kindergarten age have not only had no difficulty memorising the words but have for decades sung it every morning with 'strong feelings and emotion'." He also noted that the anthem had been translated into Singapore's three other official languages (English, Mandarin and Tamil) for those who cannot understand Malay.

A subsequent poll by The Straits Times found that while many Singaporeans knew what the anthem generally meant, only seven out of 35 persons interviewed knew the meaning of each word. However, all but three of those interviewed agreed that the anthem should continue to be sung in Malay. The three persons who disagreed felt that the anthem should be in English because that was the language most commonly used in Singapore. All the interviewees, including those who did not know the meaning of the lyrics, said they felt a sense of pride when they heard or sang the national anthem.

Singer Taufik Batisah was criticised for incorrectly singing the word berseru (to proclaim) instead of bersatu (to unite) during his rendition of Majulah Singapura before the start of the 2009 Formula 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix on 27 September 2009. A Straits Times poll then found that out of 50 people only 10 were able to sing the national anthem perfectly. Most people got between 80 and 90% of the lyrics right, while six could recite only the first line or less. Although many correctly stated that the title of the anthem meant "Onward Singapore", a majority did not understand the meaning of the anthem. However, most of the persons surveyed disagreed that the anthem should be in English, with one respondent saying: "It's better in Malay because there's a cultural history to it and [it] is more meaningful, and has traces to our roots."

Ibéyise Pacheco

Ibéyise Pacheco (29 January 1961) is a Venezuelan journalist and writer, specializing in investigative journalism, who has been linked with politics due to her strong opposition to the governments of Hugo Chávez and Nicolás Maduro.

Biography

Career
Ibéyise Pacheco graduated from the Central University of Venezuela at the age of 25 with a Bachelor in Social Communication. At the time she was also interested in literature, and had won a scholarship for narrative writing in the Centro de Estudios Latinoamericanos Rómulo Gallegos (CELARG). While still in university, she worked for the newspaper El Universal as a test corrector, and for the television channel RCTV as a writer on several telenovelas.

After her graduation in 1986, she started her professional career working for El Diario de Caracas as an investigative journalist. Her coverage and publication of her first case Los Pozos de la muerte (The Death Wells), about the search for, and discovery of, the bodies of people who had disappeared at the hands of state police in Zulia, had significant international repercussions.
In 1988 Pacheco was awarded the National Prize for Journalism, mention for investigative journalism, for her work on the “Manzopol” case, which dealt with extortion and drug trafficking connected with the police. The investigation caused the Minister of Justice, José Manzo González, to resign.

Ibéyise Pacheco also worked as head writer for the newspaper El Nacional and as director of the newspaper Así es la noticia. She ventured into radio with programs such as Radio Venezuela, Kyss and Mágica, and television with the program En Privado broadcast by Venevisión.

In 2006 she published her first book, Bajo la sotana. ¡Las Confesiones del Padre Pablo! (Beneath the Cassock. The Confessions of Father Pablo!). In 2011 she published one of her most recognized works: Sangre en el Diván: el extraordinario caso del doctor Chirinos (Blood on the Divan: The Extraordinary Case of Doctor Chirinos), about the sexual abuse and murder of journalism student Roxana Vargas, patient of president Chávez' psychiatrist Edmundo Chirinos, and in 2012 she published El Grito Ignorado (The Ignored Scream). Currently she maintains a forum for analysis of Venezuela's political and social panorama called 3 minutos con La Pacheco (3 minutes with Pacheco), broadcast weekly on NTN24.

Confrontation with the government

Pacheco was politically persecuted during the government of Hugo Chávez due to her commentaries and investigations, and has faced 17 legal proceedings. This persecution has continued during the government of Nicolás Maduro; she has repeatedly denounced, on social networks, attacks directed at her by those in power, such as the raid on her house in Colinas de Bello Monte, Caracas, and the hacking of her Twitter account.

Pacheco has categorized the government of president Maduro as a dictatorship that tries to keep news of interest to the population secret, and for this reason she aims to promote worthy and responsible journalism that delivers truthful information to Venezuelans.

Personal attack

On 31 January 2002 the head office of the newspaper directed by Pacheco, Así es la noticia, was attacked with an explosive tossed by two persons on a motorcycle. This occurred a day after she and journalists Patricia Poleo, Marta Colomina, and Marianella Salazar published a video about conversations between the Venezuelan Army and the Colombian guerrilla FARC. Two months later the Inter-American Court of Human Rights issued a protection measure for the group.

Books
 Bajo la Sotana. ¡Las Confesiones del Padre Pablo! (Beneath the Cassock. The Confessions of Father Pablo!): Her first book, published in 2006 by El Nacional. Written after recording various interviews with former priest Pablo Hernández. Pacheco discloses the workings of the ecclesiastical world, starting from the revelations of Hernández.

 Sangre en el Diván: El extraordinario caso del doctor Chirinos (Blood on the Divan: The Extraordinary Case of Doctor Chirinos): Ibéyise Pacheco's most famous work. This book relates the story of the death of Roxana Vargas, a journalism student who was treated by the well-known psychiatrist Edmundo Chirinos, and the subsequent investigation. Chirinos was accused of sexually abusing Vargas and other patients, and was convicted of murdering Vargas. This case had serious repercussions on public opinion in the country, because then-president Hugo Chávez had also been a patient of Chirinos, and Chirinos had been a prominent academic and politician. Due to the great interest of Venezuelans in the case, the author decided to adapt the book for the theatre, in the form of a dramatic monologue. The theatrical work focused on the chapter El Delirio, and has seen more than 100 performances in the Centro Cultural BOD in Caracas; it has also been performed in other Venezuelan states further inland, and internationally in Miami and Panamá. In 2015 the channel Venevisión Plus broadcast a drama series based on the book.

 El grito ignorado (The Ignored Scream): Brings together information on the case of a boy who was murdered in Guanare, in the state of Portuguesa, after being abused and maltreated for years by his family. Pacheco focuses on collecting data about the crime and constructing a psychological profile of the child's abusers. She also strongly criticizes the public institutions, which did not act in accordance with written laws for the protection of minors, and highlights the passivity of Venezuelan society towards situations of familial abuse.

 Demente criminal (Criminal Lunatic): With this new edition of Sangre en el Diván, Ibéyise Pacheco took her writing to the United States and international markets.

Murca Formation

The Murca Formation (, Kim) is a geological formation of the Altiplano Cundiboyacense, Eastern Ranges of the Colombian Andes. The predominantly subarkose sandstone with claystones and siltstones formation dates to the Early Cretaceous period; Valanginian epoch and has a maximum thickness of .

Etymology
The formation was defined and named in 1990 by Moreno after the Murca River, Cundinamarca.

Description

Lithologies
The Murca Formation has a maximum thickness of , and is characterised by a sequence of subarkose coarse-grained, locally cross-bedded sandstones with intercalating siltstones and claystones. The basal part of the black and grey feldspar bearing sandstone beds contains large pyrite crystals. The matrix is formed by cements of calcite, iron oxide, sericite and chlorite.

Fossils of Berriasella colombiana and Pseudoosterella ubalaensis have been found in the Murca Formation.

Stratigraphy and depositional environment
The Murca Formation, belonging to the Cáqueza Group, underlies the Trincheras Formation, lowermost unit of the Villeta Group. The contact with the underlying unit has not been observed. The age has been estimated to be Valanginian. Stratigraphically, the formation is time equivalent with the Cumbre, Rosablanca and Útica Formations. The formation has been deposited in a marine environment characterised by turbidites. A mid submarine fan and outer fan setting have been observed in the Murca Formation. A possible source for the sandstones were Precambrian sandstones, gneisses and granites, belonging to the Guiana Shield.

Outcrops

The Murca Formation is apart from its type locality, found near Nimaima and Guayabal in the western flank and Ubalá and Labranzagrande in the eastern flank of the Eastern Ranges.

2017 New York Mets season

The 2017 New York Mets season was the franchise's 56th season and the team's ninth season at Citi Field. The Mets opened the season on April 3 against the Atlanta Braves and finished the season on October 1 against the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. On September 19, the Mets were eliminated from postseason contention.

Just two years removed from a World Series appearance, the Mets had high expectations. However, the season was a major disappointment with injuries to key players, poor performances from players such as Yoenis Cespedes, Matt Harvey, and Robert Gsellman, and by controversy within the organization and around players. The Mets thus finished in the 4th place in their division, missed the playoffs for the first time since 2014, and equaled their worst record since 2009. Manager Terry Collins announced his retirement following the final game of the season.

Offseason
On November 14, 2016, second baseman Neil Walker accepted a qualifying offer, returning to the Mets for $17.2 million.

On October 29, 2016, Yoenis Cespedes re-signed with the Mets for $110 million for 4 years. This is the Mets second biggest free agent signing in their history to Carlos Beltran's $119 million deal in 2005.

On January 27, 2017, Jerry Blevins re-signed with the Mets for a one-year deal with an option for 2018.

Fernando Salas re-signed with the Mets for a one-year deal.
