  • Tom Mitchell of the Soledad
    TOM MITCHELL OF THE SOLEDAD {$obson 9iluer cn u rbrurun blue brtueen h ' T'.,i 1?',-i;fr ,lil,i :TJ ;', i:'"' Henry Hobson was the maternal gtandfather of Colonel Miles Cary who was Tom Mitchell's 6'h great grandfather. He was a prominent citizen of Bristol England. In the earlv 1600s Bristol was one of England's latgest seaports. The tecords of Bristol show that Henry Hobson served as mayor and as an alderman of that city. His will and his funeral certificate ftom the College of Arms provided additional information for this summary'. Henry Hobson died on 27 March 1635. He was a well-to-do innkeeper. I. Henry Hobson mamied Alice davis, daughtet of William Davis of the "Cittie of Bristol" Henry and Alice had three children. i. William Hobsofl,"who hath borne the office of Shreiff of Bristol married Margaret Colston, daughtet of William Colston of the said Cittie, merchant." ii. Alice Hobson, ye eldest daughter of the said Henry Hobson, maried to John Cary, sonne of William Cary, Alderman of the said Cittie. She was willed her father's license to sell wine in Bristol. iii. Anne Hobson, "his youngest daughter, married to Thomas Jackson, Marchant, late one of the Shreiffs of said Cittie". IL V/illiam Hobson was most likely an inn keeper like his fathet His father did not bequeath any special property to I7illiam other than his scarlet gown. He gave a "massuage", dwelling place, to each of his daughtets. It is possible that Henry had given William his share of his inheritance before his death.

  • Annual Report of the Board of Regents of the Smithsonian Institution
    ANIMALS RECENTLY EXTINCT OR THREATENED WITH EXTERMINATION, AS REPRESENTED IN THE COLLECTIONS OF THE U, S. NATIONAL MUSEUM, By Fbedekic A. Lucas, Assistcmt Curator of the Department of Comparative Anatomy. It is not, perhaps, generally realized how extensive and how rapid are the changes that are taking place in almost the entire fauna of the world through the agency of man. Of course changes have perpetu- ally taken place in the past through the operation of natural causes, and race after race of animals has disappeared from the globe, but there is this wide difference between the methods of nature and man ; that the extermination of species by nature is ordinarily slow, and the place of one is taken by another, while the destruction wrought by man is rapid, ami the gaps he creates remain unfilled. Some of the more obvious causes of extermination are to be found iu the systematic killing of animals for their various products, the destruc- tion caused by domesticated animals introduced into new countries, and the bringing of wild land under cultivation. These are the more simple and apparent destructive forces at work, and those that most directly affect the larger animals, smaller creatures being influenced by smaller causes. Thus the erection of telegraph wires, especially in sparsely wooded regions, has proved very destructive to birds, and a more deadly though more restricted source of danger is found in lofty electric lights, against which the birds dash themselves during their nocturnal migra- tions. The extinction of the Itytina and Great Auk, the almost com- plete extirpation of the Bison, and the reduced numbers of the Walrus are good examples of destruction wrought directly by the hand of man, while in addition to such cases are the still more numerous instances of the very perceptible decrease of animals once abundant.

The purpose was to quickly identify and name the many existing techniques for further reading. We selected the excellent work of Bruno Bouzy and Tristan Cazenave: “Computer Go: An AI oriented survey” [7], a 50 pages paper published in 2000 where the authors study in depth many approaches used to play the game of Go. The authors start by explaining the rules of Go and showcase a few common strategies used by human players. They introduce others two-player information complete games such as Chess, Checker or Othello and compare their complexity with Go. After the introduction, they systematically describe every technique used in two-player game solvers and asses their results using existing implementations. The paper has an important bibliography of 149 references, all of them directly cited in the text.

  • [email protected]> Subject: Tenant at 3032 Wilshire
    From: Mari Newhoff <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, July 17, 2020 2:40 PM To: Planning <[email protected]> Subject: Tenant at 3032 Wilshire EXTERNAL  Dear Planning Commission: I am writing to voice my concerns about the potential new convenience store tenant in the 3032 Wilshire building. The convenience store will create a lot of headaches for the residential neighborhood to which it is adjacent. When Bristol Farms came in, it elevated the neighborhood followed by Erewhon and Trader Joe’s. After the investment of creating such a beautiful building, the first tenant should not be one that has the potential to downgrade the neighborhood. There are five 7/11s within a mile of this project: such as Santa Monica and Sawtelle, Wilshire and Bundy, Santa Monica and Wellesley – not one of them is inviting from a consumer standpoint. They are all littered with trash and a haven for the homeless. AND if this is the first anchor tenant, I fear it will scare off prospective Class A tenants which the neighborhood desperately need such as bakeries or restaurants. After living through the inconsiderate construction which began as early as 6:30am most days, the neighborhood was looking forward to a little class. I am pleading with you to reconsider. Best, Mari Newhoff 1230 Berkeley Street To: [email protected] Sent: Sat, Jul 18, 2020 1:31 pm Subject: New Business - PLEASE No! Santa Monica Planning, I am a home owner in the 1200 block of Berkeley Street in Santa Monica. I am writing to respectfully protest against a new business, potentially planned for the new building on the southwest corner of Berkeley Street and Wilshire Blvd.

    Contents 3 Are we doing the right type of conservation science? 8 Training two captive Sumatran orang-utans for ultrasound scanning 11 As dead as a dodo – when do we declare a species Extinct? 13 Conservation and data management 17 Morbidity of Alaotran gentle lemurs at Durrell Wildlife Park 22 Effects of diet on the health of captive Geoffroy’s marmosets 25 Biodiversity loss in Gerald Durrell’s early works 27 Assessing muscle condition in captive Livingstone’s fruit bats 30 Conservation update on the ploughshare tortoise 33 Seed dispersal by ecological replacement Aldabra giant tortoises Welcome to Solitaire 27. This issue starts with a very thought-provoking essay by Professor Richard Griffiths that highlights some of the problems both field and zoo-based conservationists face not only in doing high quality research, but in communicating it to the rest of the conservation world. These are problems Durrell’s staff and students face regularly, and they are problems for which Solitaire is trying to provide some solutions. Although we are aiming at the highest standards, we are often working with small numbers of individuals, and in situa- tions that cannot be easily, if ever, repeated. Solitaire is an outlet for such studies, making our results available to a wider audience and, hopefully, stimulating more research and encouraging collaboration. This year’s Solitaire demonstrates perfectly what we are trying to do to improve evidence-based conserva- tion and the management of threatened species. Articles range from descriptions of techniques that have the potential to be of benefit to a wide variety of species – for example, habituating our female Sumatran orangutans to ultrasound equipment so that they can be monitored during pregnancy without stress – through updates on vitally important conservation initiatives in the field, to basic research on biology, behaviour and health, providing information that forms the essential underpinning of any conservation action.

    D-VAL: An automatic functional equivalence validation tool for planning domain models ⋆ Anas Shrinah1, Derek Long2, and Kerstin Eder1 1University of Bristol, Bristol BS8 1TH, UK {first.last}@bristol.ac.uk 2 Schlumberger Cambridge Research Center, Cambridge CB3 0EL, UK [email protected] Abstract. In this paper, we introduce an approach to validate the func- tional equivalence of planning domain models. Validating the functional equivalence of planning domain models is the problem of formally con- firming that two planning domain models can be used to solve the same set of problems. The need for techniques to validate the functional equiv- alence of planning domain models has been highlighted in previous re- search and has applications in model learning, development and exten- sion. We prove the soundness and completeness of our method. We also develop D-VAL, an automatic functional equivalence validation tool for planning domain models. Empirical evaluation shows that D-VAL vali- dates the functional equivalence of most examined domains in less than five minutes. Additionally, we provide a benchmark to evaluate the fea- sibility and scalability of this and future related work. 1 Introduction Validation of planning domain models is a key challenge in Knowledge Engi- neering in Planning and Scheduling (KEPS). Among other tasks, this activity is concerned with checking the correctness of a planning domain model with respect to its specification, requirements or any other reference. If the reference is described informally, then the process of validating the correctness of domain models is also informal [9]. On the other hand, when the requirements are de- scribed formally, it is feasible to perform formal validation and to automate this arXiv:2104.14602v1 [cs.AI] 29 Apr 2021 process.

BUTTON AND WENTWORTH, STATE PRINTERS. 1842. : NINTH ANNUAL REPORT TRUSTEES OF THE STATE LUNATIC HOSPITAL. £}E:CKBIBKR, 184rl. To His Excellency John Davis, Governor, and to the Honorable Ex- ecutive Council of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts The Trustees of the Stale Lunatic Hospital respectfully present their Ninth Annual REPORT: The Trustees acknowledge the favor of a beneficent Providence, con- tinued to this institution through another year. Since the first con- ception of its plan, the genuine benevolence of its character and its freedom from even the appearance of selfishness, has secured the good will of men and the blessing of God. It is rare for any institution to be so long, so uniformly and so highly successful in both these re- spects, and the friends of this establishment should be proportionally grateful. The statute requires this report to be " full and detailed." Entirely to meet this requirement, the Trustees annex the report of the superin- tendent to them, giving a full and detailed statement of the interior condition of the hospital. From its numerous facts they select the following. In the course of the year there were 399 patients in the hospital ; at the commencement of the year, 236; admitted in the course of the year, 163 ; remained at the end of the year, 232.
