Capnella Capnella is a genus of soft corals in the family Nephtheidae. They are also commonly known as Kenya tree corals. Capnella are arborescent, some species are lobed. Generally they are grey with brown polyps. Colour intensity is dependent on light intensity, the higher the intensity of light, the lighter colour of the coral. They form thick trunks with branches that closely resemble trees. In stronger currents they form flatter colonies with shorter branches. Kenya Tree corals are widespread throughout the Indo-pacific region, from the African coast to the Western Pacific. They are found on coral reef slopes in clear water from deep to the shallows with strong tidal currents. Sometimes found in shadier places and on coral rubble in shallow water close to the shore. They have symbiotic algae from which they obtain most of their nutrients. Asexual reproduction has been observed. They form distinctive swellings at bottom of a branch which then drops off by fission at the swelling. The branch then secures to a new hold and forms a new colony. They can stick very quickly and will be firmly rooted within a day. Colonies can bend and reattach to the rock or by “creeping” and division at the base.

Norwich made some attacks of their own, winning two corners, but they could not take advantage of either. After a late tackle by one of the Bayern players, which caught Sutton high on his right shin, Norwich's discipline broke temporarily when Butterworth retaliated shortly after with a two-footed tackle, earning him a yellow card. Bayern Munich made two changes; Michael Sternkopf replaced Ziege in the 60th minute, and five minutes later Mehmet Scholl was substituted for Bruno Labbadia; tactically, Matthäus pushed further forward from his deep-lying role. After 75 minutes, Jorginho crossed the ball from the right, and Valencia aimed a powerful close-ranger header at goal, drawing a save that "The Independent"s Trevor Haylett described as "breathtaking" from Gunn. In his autobiography, Gunn says he saved it with his "goolies", adding "it doesn't matter how you keep them out, just as long as you keep them out", rating it the most important save of his career. Kreuzer got to the rebound, but his shot went over the crossbar. Bayern continued to attack; Valencia had another chance in the 78th minute, an overhead kick that he put wide, and within a minute Gunn had to make a save from Matthäus. Gunn was again called into action in injury time, diving at the feet of Labbadia, to ensure that Norwich won the match 2–1. When the final whistle blew, Walker gave his team hugs on the pitch, but warned them that they had "a tough game still to come at Carrow Road". The British media were less guarded: "'Jerry sinks the Gerrys' was the inevitable headlined salute to Jerry Goss, Norwich's longest servant". Other headlines included "Canaries ready for the kill", "Norwich shock Bayern Munich" and "Canaries stun Bayern with sensational win". Goss opined of his goal: "I didn't have to adjust my stride, I just hit it on the volley with my right foot. It was as sweet as anything". Reflecting on the improbability of such a result, "FourFourTwo" wrote, "The news that Norwich had gone 2–0 up in the Olympic Stadium seemed frankly surreal". That it was Norwich that inflicted the defeat was startling: Norwich were "mere babes at this level", and, according to Goss, "There's no doubt Bayern assumed it would be easy". When analysing the reasons for the result, "The Independent" laid the blame for the Germans' defeat on their attitude—which was blatant: "They paid the price of underestimating the opposition while embarrassment for one official was total after saying on the eve of the game, and in Walker's hearing, that they wanted a trip to Tenerife in the third round.
Cyrtandra crenata Cyrtandra crenata is a rare species of flowering plant in the African violet family known by the common name Kahana Valley cyrtandra. It is endemic to Oahu in Hawaii, where it is known only from the Koolau Mountains. It has not been seen since 1947, however, and it is feared extinct. The habitat is steep and inaccessible in some areas, so it is possible that specimens of this species still exist in the wild. It was federally listed an endangered species of the United States in 1994. This shrub grows 1 to 2 meters tall and bears white flowers. Like other Hawaiian "Cyrtandra" it is called ha`iwale.
In the Gaelic nobility, Lord Inchiquin is The O'Brien, Chief of the Name, Prince of Thomond. The family seat of the O'Brien Baronetcy was Dromoland Castle, near Newmarket-on-Fergus, County Clare. The current Baron Inchiquin lives in Thomond House adjacent to Dromoland. The heir presumptive is the present holder's second cousin Conor John Anthony O'Brien (born 1952). The heir presumptive's heir apparent is his only son Fionn Murough O'Brien (born 1987). "see above for further succession" There is some overlap with the Barons Inchiquin; those people are marked off in bold. "Lord Inchiquin" is the name of a traditional Irish air by O'Carolan, assumed to be dedicated to his contemporary William O'Brien, 4th Earl of Inchiquin. The painter George O'Brien, who made his name as an artist in New Zealand, was a descendant of the first Baron Inchiquin.

The final song played on K95 on the 95.5 signal as a Country format was "Wide Open Spaces" by The Dixie Chicks. On April 4, 2013, the station changed its call sign to WZOH-FM. During its stint as a sports format, WZOH-FM was the Columbus affiliate for the Cleveland Browns and Cleveland Cavaliers. It was also the English flagship for Columbus Crew SC for the 2014 season. The sports format lasted until midnight on November 12, 2015. At that time, WXMG's format moved from 106.3 FM to 95.5 FM. The 95.5 frequency, along with WHOK-FM, had been purchased by Radio One. Due to the poor signal in downtown Columbus, WZOH-FM operated a translator at 94.1 MHz as W272AT until June 25, 2013. The translator aired exactly the same audio as WZOH-FM.
2014 MBC Drama Awards The 2014 MBC Drama Awards () is a ceremony honoring the outstanding achievement in television on the Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) network for the year of 2014. It was held on December 30, 2014 and hosted by Shin Dong-yup and Girls' Generation's Choi Soo-young.

Using this method, over 3,000 hm5C peaks have been called in "Drosophila melanogaster" S2 cells. Despite two distinct base-resolution methods being available for hm5dC, there are no base-resolution methods for detection of hm5C. Apart from mass spectrometry and chromatography, other two validation techniques have been developed, namely This method has proven to be very useful in the validation of modified residues in mRNAs and lncRNAs, such as m6A and Ψ Single-molecule real-time sequencing (SMRT) is used in the epigenomic and epitranscriptomic fields. As regards epigenomics, thousands of zero-mode waveguides (ZMWs) are used to capture the DNA polymerase: when a modified base is present, the biophysical dynamics of its movement changes, creating a unique kinetic signature before, during, and after the base incorporation. SMRT sequencing can be used to detect modified bases in RNA, including m6A sites. In this case, a reverse transcriptase is used as enzyme with ZMWs to observe the cDNA synthesis in real time. The incorporation of synthetically designed m6A sites leaves a kinetic signature and increases the interpulse duration (IPD). There are some issues concerning the reading of homonucleotide straches and the base resolution of m6A therein, due to the stuttering of reverse transcriptase. Secondly, the throughput is too low for transcriptome-wide approaches. One of the most commonly used platform is the SMRT sequencing technology by Pacific Biosciences. A possible alternative to the detection of epitranscriptomic modifications by SMRT sequencing is the direct detection using the Nanopore sequencing technologies. This technique exploits nanometer-sized protein channels embedded into a membrane or solid materials, and coupled to sensors, able to detect the amplitude and duration of the variations of the ionic current passing through the pore. As the RNA passes through the nanopore, the blockage leads to a disruption in current stream, which is different for the different bases, included modified ones, and therefore can be used to identify possible modifications. By producing single-molecule reads, without previous RNA amplification and conversion to cDNA, these techniques can lead to the production of quantitative transcriptome-wide maps. In particular, the Nanopore technology proved to be effective in detecting the presence of two nucleotide analogs in RNA: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and 5-methylcytosine (5-mC).
Stil i Moda Stil i Moda (translated to "Style and Fashion") is a Russian shopping channel. TV channel began broadcasting in August 2011. The channel started to be available on satellite Eutelsat W7 in the public domain, after a while it began its distribution among the cable operators of the Russian Federation. On March 1, 2012 Valentin Yudashkin was appointed editor in chief. On April 1, 2012 the channel entered into a social channel pack, of the satellite operator Tricolor TV. Commercials on TV are shot in its own studio. In the intervals between transmissions of them audience have the opportunity to buy clothes, shoes, accessories and furnishings from renowned designers and newcomers to the world of fashion. The basic idea of creating such a channel, was made by social necessity. Most television viewers in this country were unable to buy goods at low prices because of the remoteness from major cities and regional centers. The range of local shops is rarely updated, and beautiful and affordable clothing needs for everyone. In the formation of the channel range, the channel addresses the needs and possibilities of every citizen of Russia (low prices, good quality and accessibility of purchases). After all, as telephones and TVs in every house exist, and Russian Post has about 42,000 offices, the viewer can get the goods ordered.
However, the inscriptions from "Termessoss" and "Kibyra" (epigraphic sources 2 and 3 above) suggest that he was associated with a campaign to clear the Eastern Mediterranean of "Gothic" pirates who had been ravaging the islands and the southern Anatolian coast since their original incursion from the Black Sea in 267 AD. Recent archeological and numismatic discoveries in this region (in particular the "Sagalassos" Inscription – see above – now seem to indicate that Imperial forces were active in this region in the reign of Claudius II. "Gothic" raids into the province of "Pamphylia" (modern Antalya) not only threatened communications between the European and the eastern provinces, but also put in danger the flow of corn and other produce from the "Pisidian" plateau at a time when Palmyrene activities in Egypt had made these all the more vital to Roman forces seeking to operate in the region. It is likely that the general disturbance caused by the Gothic pirates was also unsettling the peoples of "Isauria" in the central regions of "Asia" who the Romans had up to then been content to leave to their own devices. Under the High Empire responsibility for local policing and regional defence in the Asian provinces had been entrusted to the militias of the autonomous Greek cities of the region and there were no significant Imperial forces in this region. The central Asian provinces were defined as "inermis" ("lit." "unarmed") insofar that it had never seemed necessary to station permanent garrisons of imperial troops. However, it would seem that by the latter part of Claudius's reign this arrangement was no longer adequate and increased intervention by the central government became necessary. Control of "Termessos" and "Kibyra" together with that of "Sagalassos", a third city where evidence of activity at the time of Claudius II is particularly noted by Biagi, would have been key to the maintenance of Rome's strategic interests in the region. A landward thrust into this area would also have complemented the naval campaign undertaken, apparently at that time, by Tenagino Probus, the governor of "Aegyptus" Marcianus is likely to have arrived in the region accompanied by European troops and to have cooperated with the local police-forces. The inscriptions would suggest that he may have achieved his immediate objectives. (Zosimus asserts that the Gothic pirates:... did not achieve much... although, he gives Tenagino Probus, the commander of the naval operations, credit for this outcome).
"It is convenient to see the Vichy regime as born of nothingness, returned to nothingness. Yes, it's convenient, but it is false. We cannot build pride upon a lie." Macron made a subtle reference to Chirac's remark when he added, "I say it again here. It was indeed France that organized the roundup, the deportation, and thus, for almost all, death." Portions of the French military fell into Vichy control: General Charles Noguès served as commander-in-chief of Vichy French Forces. Vichy French Navy were under the command of Admiral François Darlan with naval garrison in Toulon. Vichy French Air Force was led by General Jean Romatet with involvement in actions in North Africa. Stanley Hoffmann in 1974, and after him, other historians such as Robert Paxton and Jean-Pierre Azéma have used the term "collaborationnistes" to refer to fascists and Nazi sympathisers who, for ideological reasons, wished a reinforced collaboration with Hitler's Germany. Examples of these are Parti Populaire Français (PPF) leader Jacques Doriot, writer Robert Brasillach or Marcel Déat. A principal motivation and ideological foundation among "collaborationnistes" was anticommunism. "Collaborationnisme" (collaborationism) should be distinguished from collaboration. Collaboration refers to those of the French who for whatever reason collaborated with the Germans whereas collaborationism refers to those, primarily from the fascist right, who embraced the goal of a German victory as their own. Organizations such as "La Cagoule" opposed the Third Republic, particularly when the left-wing Popular Front was in power. Collaborationists may have influenced the Vichy government's policies, but ultra-collaborationists never comprised the majority of the government before 1944. To enforce the régime's will, some paramilitary organisations were created. A notable example was the ""Légion Française des Combattants"" (LFC) (French Legion of Fighters), including at first only former combatants, but quickly adding ""Amis de la Légion"" and cadets of the Légion, who had never seen battle, but who supported Pétain's régime. The name was then quickly changed to ""Légion Française des Combattants et des volontaires de la Révolution Nationale"" (French Legion of Fighters and Volunteers of the National Revolution).
Thalassodes Thalassodes is a genus of moths in the family Geometridae first described by Achille Guenée in 1857. Palpi with second joint clothed with hair and reaching the apex of the short frontal tuft. Third joint naked and porrect (extending forward). Antennae of male usually bipectinate (comb like on both sides) to two-thirds length. Hind tibia usually dilated with a fold containing a tuft of long hair. Forewings with veins 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 stalked or vein 6 from cell. Hindwings with angled or produced outer margin to a point at vein 4.
In the negotiations to form a coalition government following the 2017 federal elections, Flachsbarth was part of the working group on agriculture, led by Julia Klöckner, Christian Schmidt and Anke Rehlinger. With the formation of the fourth "Grand Coalition" under Merkel in 2018, she became – alongside Norbert Barthle – one of two Parliamentary State Secretaries at the Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development, this time under the leadership of minister Gerd Müller. In May 2020, Flachsbarth announced that she would not stand in the 2021 federal elections but instead resign from active politics by the end of the parliamentary term. Since 2006, Flachsbarth has been the deputy chairwoman of the CDU in Lower Saxony, under the leadership of successive chairmen Christian Wulff (2006-2008), David McAllister (2008-2016) and Bernd Althusmann (since 2016). Following the 2017 state elections in Lower Saxony, Flachsbarth was part of the CDU team in the negotiations with Stephan Weil’s Social Democrats on a coalition agreement. In June 2017, Flachsbarth voted against Germany's introduction of same-sex marriage. Flachsbarth is married and has two children.
Shuikou shiplift The ShuiKou shiplift, was built in Fujian province, on the Min River. It can lift vessels displacing 500 tons. Its caisson's dimensions are × × . The ShuiKou Dam's maximum height is . Beside the shiplift there is flight of three conventional locks, also capable of transitting vessels of 500 tons. When built it was the second largest shiplift in China, after the one being built on the Three Gorges Dam. World Bank planning documents describe both the shiplift and flight of conventional locks as being capable of transitting two 500 ton vessels. The World Bank planning documents anticipated 700,000 tons per year would transit the dam. The maximum capacity of the shiplift and flight of locks is 3.2 million tons per year. Construction of the shiplift began in 1991. A catastropic flood on the river, in 1992, delayed completion.
Both of its torpedoes were missing, indicating that the fifth midget may have fired its torpedoes prior to being scuttled. Although this correlates with reports of two torpedoes fired at the light cruiser at 10:04 at the entrance of Pearl Harbor, and a possible torpedo fired at destroyer at 08:21, there is circumstantial evidence to support a hypothesis that "No.16", like "No.22", successfully entered Pearl, fired on Battleship Row, and escaped to the relative quiet of neighboring West Loch, where it was scuttled by the crew. When a series of explosions sank an amphibious fleet being assembled in the Loch in 1944, the remains of the sub were collected and dumped in the subsequent salvage operation, which was kept classified as secret until 1960. A photograph taken from a Japanese plane during the Pearl Harbor attack shows what might have been "No.16" inside the harbor firing its torpedoes at Battleship Row. The sinking of the USS West Virginia and capsizing of the may have been accelerated by a torpedo hit from a submarine-launched torpedo, the warheads of which were larger than the aerial torpedoes. Some believe that in the photo, where the torpedoes' paths had supposedly started, were sprays that indicated a midget-submarine rocking up and down due to the force of the torpedo being launched, causing the propellers of the stern to be exposed, kicking up clouds of water spray. A war time report from Admiral Nimitz confirmed the recovery of at least one dud torpedo of the type employed by the midget submarines. This discovery is covered in the "Nova" episode "Killer Subs in Pearl Harbor" and companion website, I-16tou.com. Japanese forces received a radio message from a midget submarine at 00:41 on December 8 claiming damage to one or more large warships inside Pearl Harbor. On the night of 29 May 1942, five large Japanese submarines positioned themselves 56 kilometres north-east of Sydney Heads. At 3 a.m. the next day one of the submarines launched a reconnaissance aircraft. After circling Sydney Harbour the aircraft returned to its submarine, reporting the presence of 'battleships and cruisers' moored in the harbour. The flotilla's commanding officer decided to attack the harbour with midget submarines the next night. The next day the five submarines approached to within 11 kilometres of Sydney Heads, and at about 4:30 p.m. they released three midget submarines, which then began their approach to Sydney Harbour.
Cyberaktif was a collaboration between key and Bill Leeb from the band Front Line Assembly, with Goettel acting predominantly as a support musician. The only album they produced, "Tenebrae Vision", was released in 1991 through Wax Trax! Records. The song “Paradiessets” featured vocals from Blixa Bargeld of Einstürzende Neubauten. The band Hilt, a collaboration between Key and Geottel, and Al Nelson, started when Nettwerk challenged the group to produce an album for as little money as possible. The group released two albums, "Call the Ambulance Before I Hurt Myself" and "Journey to the Center of the Bowl", in 1990 and 1991, respectively, before Nelson's death in 2000. In 2018, Key released a number of rediscovered recordings from when the band was called "The Flu". Another collaboration started by Key and Goettel in 1990 was Doubting Thomas, the purpose of which was to produce "soundtracks for movies that never existed". They released their sole album, "The Infidel", in 1991 through Wax Trax! Records. Following the end of Skinny puppy in 1995, Key formed PlaTEAU with Western and Valic. PlatEAU, which signed to Cleopatra subsidiary Hypnotic, released their first album, "Music for Grass Bars", on May 20, 1997. The band's follow up, 1999's "SpacEcake", was described by "Exclaim!"'s Matt Mernagh as being more akin to Aphex Twin and Autechre than any of Key's previous work. 2007 saw the release of "Kushbush + Music for Grass Bars", the first disc of which contained new music while the second disc featured a special edition of "Music for Grass Bars". Key's initial interest in experimenting with electronic music came from a dream he had as a kid; this dream was depicted on the cover of his 2003 album "The Dragon Experience". Later on, he discovered a publication called "Contact List for Electronic Music" by Alex Douglas, which introduced him to the tape-trading community. He named Throbbing Gristle, Cabaret Voltaire, Portion Control, and the album "The Bridge" by Thomas Leer and Robert Rental as early influences on Skinny Puppy. In an interview with "Alternative Press", he mentioned Fad Gadget, The Human League, John Foxx, Bourbonese Qualk, and Mark Stewart as having a large impact on him in his youth.
Andhra Jateva Kalashala Ground Andhra Jateva Kalashala Ground was a cricket ground in Machilipatnam, Andhra Pradesh, India. The only recorded match held on the ground came in December 1984 when Andhra Pradesh played a first-class match in the 1983/84 Ranji Trophy against Hyderabad, which Hyderabad won by 8 wickets.
Cryo Studios existed entirely as Cryo Interactive's American subsidiary, producing games based on licensed properties. Their first license (as DHI) was based on MTV's animated science fiction series "Aeon Flux". However, the license agreement was terminated before development was completed and the game was re-adapted into its own fictional universe as "Pax Corpus". Shortly afterwards, DHI was granted the license to develop an interactive game based on Dark Horse's own comic book series, "Hellboy", written and drawn by Mike Mignola. The Windows version of "" was completed in 2000 after nearly four years of production; the intended PlayStation version of this game was put on ice. Their next project was to be based on Universal Classic Monsters, which included Dracula, Frankenstein, and The Wolf Man. However, before any project made it out of pre-production, Cryo Interactive — quickly succumbing to the worldwide recession of 2001 — closed their North American branch. Cryo Interactive filed for bankruptcy a year later. In 2003, Canada-based Dreamcatcher Interactive — a former subsidiary of Cryo Interactive — finished development on and released the PlayStation version now retitled to "Hellboy: Asylum Seeker" in time for the theatrical release of the "Hellboy" movie, though the two are unrelated. By July 2002, not long after "Frank Herbert's Dune" flopped, the value of Cryo shares had plummeted and the financial situation of the company, who had closed its North American branch Cryo Studios the year before, was no longer sustainable. Cryo failed to negotiate a deal with its creditors, consequently filing for insolvency and making over 80 percent of its workforce redundant. Subsidiary Cryo Networks ceased operations shortly thereafter, leaving its then-ongoing projects "DUNE Generations" and "Black Moon Chronicles: Wind of War" unfinished. In October 2002, the parent company was put on liquidation, but subsequent negotiations ultimately caused DreamCatcher Interactive to absorb most of its assets and development teams, thus forming the base for DreamCatcher Europe. The SCOL technology developed by Cryo Networks was released as an open source project in late 2002. Also following Cryo's bankruptcy, its partnership with Italian developer Trecision fell through and Trecision managed to acquire publishing rights to its co-developed games "Popeye: Hush Rush for Spinach" and the Windows and PlayStation 2 versions of "Zidane Football Generation". However, the former was cancelled and the latter was stripped of its Zinedine Zidane license and released as "Calcio 2003" in Italy and "Football Generation" in the rest of Europe, the PlayStation 2 version not being released until 2006, three years after Trecision itself had filed for voluntary liquidation.
The Outpost (opera) The Outpost is an opera or operetta by the composer Hamilton Clarke with a libretto by A. O'D. Bartholeyns. The story is an adaptation of the Singspiel "Der vierjährige Posten" by Theodor Körner with music by Franz Schubert. The piece was one of Clarke's last compositions following several operettas that he had composed for the German Reeds. It premiered at the Savoy Theatre from 2 July 1900 to 3 November 1900 as a companion piece to the Gilbert and Sullivan opera "The Pirates of Penzance", for the second London revival of "Pirates", and also played from 10 November 1900 to 7 December 1900 as a companion piece to "Patience", a total of 131 performances. After this, the work was performed on tour from late 1901 through 1902 as a companion piece to "Pirates", "Patience" and "Iolanthe". Both the score and the libretto appear to be lost, but there survives a copy of a fantasia for flute and piano, based on airs from the piece, and so the vocal score may have been published. The fashion in the late Victorian era and Edwardian era was to present long evenings in the theatre, and so producer Richard D'Oyly Carte preceded his Savoy operas with curtain raisers, like "The Outpost". MacQueen-Pope commented, concerning such curtain raisers: Campion played from 30 July to 11 August, while Pinder was substituting as the Pirate King in "Pirates". Nell Richardson probably played while Evans was off from 27 August to 8 September. The touring cast was Fred G. Edgar, W. G. Lennox, E. A. White, R. A. Swinhoe, Fred Drawater, Bernard Fisher, Edward L. Bishop and, at times, Frank Robey, Norah Maguire, Florence Beech and Bessel Adams. Körner's original libretto depicts a young French soldier sent to guard the German border. He hates military life, deserts his post, crosses into Germany, marries a German girl and lives happily as a farmer. Four years later, war breaks out, and the French army crosses the border. The young man is recognised, arrested, and charged with desertion, a capital offence. He decides to claim that he has been at his post the whole time, but the French do not believe this story and put him before a court martial.
In sum, classical medicine marked yin and yang as high and low on bodies which in turn would be labeled normal or abnormal and gendered either male or female. The act of diagnosing women was not as simple as the diagnosing of men in traditional Chinese medicine. This was for several reasons: first, the treatment of sick women was expected to be called in by and take place under male authority. The visiting physician would then discuss the female's problems and diagnosis through the male. Second, women were often silent about their issues with doctors and male figures due to the societal expectation of female modesty and the presence of a male figure in the room. Third, the presence of male authority in the sick room and the patriarchal dominated society also caused doctors to reference their women and children patients "the anonymous category of family members ("Jia Ren") or household ("Ju Jia")" in their journals. This anonymity and lack of conversation between the doctor and woman patient led to the inquiry diagnosis of the Four Diagnostic Methods being the most challenging. The study of medicine for women was called "Fuke" (known as gynecology and obstetrics in modern science and medicine); however, it has little to no ancient works based on it except for Fu Qing-zhu's "Fu Qing Zhu Nu Ke" (Fu Qing-zhu's "Gynecology"). The most challenging part of a woman's health in Traditional Chinese Medicine was pregnancy and postpartum, this is because there were many definitions of pregnancy in traditional Chinese medicine. The recognition of pregnancy in the Western medical world has been around since the publication of the Hippocratic Corpus, circa mid-fifth century to the mid-fourth century BCE, in the gynecological treatises On the Nature of the Woman, On the Diseases of Women, Generation, On the Nature of the Child, On Sterile Women, On Fistulae, and On Hemorrhoids. The term Caesarean section derives from an ancient Roman, or Caesarean (from Caesar) law that demanded that when a pregnant woman died, her body could not be buried until the unborn child had been removed. Ancient Roman doctors were forbidden from performing this procedure on living women, however. Traditional Chinese medicine's attempts to grapple with pregnancy are documented from at least the seventeenth century. According to Charlotte Furth, "a pregnancy (in the seventeenth century) as a known bodily experience emerged [...] out of the liminality of menstrual irregularity, as uneasy digestion, and a sense of fullness".
May 1555 papal conclave The May 1555 papal conclave (Mary 15–23), was convened on the death of Pope Marcellus II (whose reign had only lasted from 9 April to 1 May that year) and elected Pope Paul IV as his successor.
The party places great emphasis on the fight against social inequality and poverty, and is in favour of strengthening and expanding the welfare state. The party believes there is place in society for all forms of diversity, including gender, sexuality, disability and ethnic background. It also advocates for a larger public sector, among other things, to improve quality of life for public sector employees. The party believes people should be free to choose when they want to get an education and is opposed to tuition fees, which they believe harm opportunities for everyone to acquire an education. The party does not see unemployment as being equal to laziness and seeks to abolish the Danish equivalent of workfare. The party is decisively anti-capitalist and has particularly distinguished itself as an opponent of transfer pricing, whereby multinational companies minimise the amount they pay in tax by attributing their profits to countries with lower tax rates. According to the party, the global economic crisis should be resolved through the stricter control of loans, the introduction of a Tobin tax, and the nationalisation of the banks and mortgage companies. It says the public sector must be expanded, the wages of the lowest-paid workers should be raised, and the insurance-based unemployment benefit period should be extended to a minimum of four years. At the same time, students should be given a greater state education grant. At minimum, all benefits should be raised to 13,500 kroner per month before taxes. The party advocates for foreign policy based on respect for human rights, which it believes has not been appropriately prioritised in the past. It also proposes greater support for developing countries through a doubling of foreign aid, and campaigns for Denmark's withdrawal from NATO. In March 2019, the party announced it would no longer campaign for a referendum to leave the EU, pointing to Brexit illustrating the need for clarity before withdrawal can be considered. The party operates on the fundamental belief that peace is preferable to war, and has been opposed from the beginning to Denmark's participation in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. That principle was challenged in 2011, when the party's parliamentary group voted in favour of Danish participation in the UN-sanctioned military action in Libya on the basis that it was a humanitarian action. However, the decision led to significant backlash, and the party's support was pulled back after the military intervention began. The party was formed in 1989 as an electoral alliance of three left-wing parties: Left Socialists (VS), Communist Party of Denmark (DKP), and Socialist Workers Party (SAP). Originally the plan was to unite these parties alongside The Greens (De Grønne), Common Course, and Humanist to form a broad-based progressive movement, but this did not materialize.
Capen Street station Capen Street is a light rail station in Milton, Massachusetts. It serves the MBTA Ashmont–Mattapan High Speed Line. It is located on Capen Street off Eliot Street; the westernmost of the four MBTA stations in Milton, it consists of two side platforms flanking the eponymous street's grade crossing. The platforms are staggered to allow trains to make the stop at Capen Street before crossing the street itself, as there is no signal at the grade crossing. Capen Street is accessible via wooden ramps on both platforms. Capen Street opened in September 1930 as an infill station on the line. The Dorchester and Milton Branch Railroad opened from Neponset to Mattapan in December 1847. Service was discontinued on August 26, 1929, as the new high-speed trolley line was completed from Ashmont to Milton by the Boston Elevated Railway (BERy). The trolley line was extended from Milton to Mattapan on December 21, 1929, with new intermediate stops at Central Avenue and Valley Road. Residents on Capen Street, having to use the Valley Road stop despite the line crossing Capen Street, requested a station of their own; it was considered a likely possibility at the time of the line's opening. After considering the walking distance from Capen Street to Valley Road and Mattapan, the BERy granted the request. The Boston Transit Department constructed by gravel platforms with overhead lighting. The completed station opened as a flag stop in September 1930. A second infill stop at Butler Street opened the next year. On October 8, 1982, a shotgun-wielding man attempted to rob the six passengers aboard an inbound trolley at Capen Street. One of the passengers foiled the attempt by grabbing the unloaded gun from the robber. The MBTA closed the line on June 24, 2006 to allow a new viaduct to be constructed at Ashmont station. During the closure, all stations on the line were modernized and (except for Valley Road) made accessible. The old shelter and platforms were replaced by modern platforms with canopies, with a wooden ramp on each platform for accessibility. Trolley service resumed on December 22, 2007.

Splitting the Breeze Splitting the Breeze is a 1927 American silent western film directed by Robert De Lacey and starring Tom Tyler, Harry Woods and Peggy Montgomery.
Anyone feeling a bit like death in the run-up to Christmas should invest in a copy of "How Great Thou Art" — and feel revivified." Phillips is featured in the art installation by Peter Dunn commissioned by the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea on the Portobello Road north wall, in a series of photomurals celebrating key personalities, history and events of the Golborne and Portobello area over the past hundred years. On 17 June 2017, Phillips was guest curator at Black Cultural Archives for the day, to celebrate the forthcoming launch of the Charlie Phillips Roots Archive. Phillips' 1967 photo "Notting Hill Couple" appears on the cover of the CD "London Is the Place for Me Vol. 2: Calypso Kwela Highlife and Jazz from Young Black London" (Honest Jon's Records). It also featured in "Staying Power: Photographs of Black British Experience, 1950-1990s", a collaborative exhibition by Black Cultural Archives and the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A), and in the National Portrait Gallery's 2015 exhibition "Face of Britain." In March 2016 the photograph was selected by "Time Out" as one of "The 40 best photos of London ever taken", and was described by the magazine as "a picture that speaks volumes about London living and loving". Publications in which his photographs are reproduced include "Carnival: A Photographic and Testimonial History of the Notting Hill Carnival" (Rice N Peas Books, 2014), which followed from a 2011 exhibition of Notting Hill Carnival photographs curated by Ishmahil Blagrove that featured work by Phillips among others at The Tabernacle. The exhibition "Charlie Phillips: The Urban Eye", curated by Paul Goodwin at New Art Exchange, Nottingham, was longlisted for the Deutsche Börse Photography Prize 2014. Simon Schama, in an extract published in "The Guardian" from his book "The Face of Britain", which features images from the National Portrait Gallery's collection, describes Phillips as "a visual poet; chronicler, champion, witness of a gone world ... one of Britain's great photo-portraitists", reproducing "Notting Hill Couple" alongside the article. "Rootical", a film by Nike Hatzidimon about Phillips' life, won the Best First Film Award at the Portobello Film Festival in 2006. Phillips' life and work was covered in "Neighbourhood Tales: Black And White", broadcast in October 2003, in Channel Four's "Neighbourhood Tales" slot.
Additionally, Chiang's portrayal of Zsasz is more outwardly physically imposing than the gaunt, wiry physique created by Breyfogle and favored by most subsequent artists. No dialogue in the story arc references Zsasz being a skinhead nor does it explain his increased musculature, and it is likely these visual elements were the decision of the artist. Zsasz is later seen again in the "Gotham Underground" story arc where, in issue 3, he appears in a disguised Batman's cell at Blackgate Prison and attempts to kill him with a knife. He ends up cutting Batman's arm just as he was waking up and the resulting fight ends with Zsasz being knocked unconscious and Batman being rushed to the hospital. A naked, desperate and totally deranged Zsasz appeared in the first issue of "" (2008), written by film director Kevin Smith, killing a young couple and threatening their children before Batman subdues him. His thoughts move so quickly that there are no spaces between the words. In the issue, Batman says that of all the criminals he fights, he hates Zsasz the most. In the "" storyline, Zsasz is recruited by a new Black Mask into a group of villains aiming to take over Gotham. This arrangement is explained further in a continuous story arc through the "" series, with Black Mask hiring Zsasz after he saved the former's life following a confrontation with former employee Firefly. Black Mask presents Zsasz with a briefcase filled with cash and advises him to finally live out his dream, knowing full well any 'dream' of Zsasz's would culminate in mass murder. Apprehensive at first on how to go about this, he eventually decides to take Black Mask up on his offer, dressing in Armani suits (appearing near exactly the image of Woody Harrelson's character in Natural Born Killers) and purchasing a warehouse as his base of operations. During an investigation into the discovery of several children murdered by Humpty Dumpty, Damian Wayne is 'captured' by a man soliciting runaway kids with the promise of a free meal and a place to stay. Damian discovers the man to be a close associate of Victor Zsasz, and that Zsasz has been slowly building a financial empire using runaway children and kidnapped orphans in a 'fight to the death' arena where people bet on the winners. The winning child faces a new contestant, and so on, until the last child left fights Zsasz one-on-one, with the promise of freedom for winning (with it clearly evident none have won thus far).
Shigeyoshi Matsuo Matsuo was born in Hyogo Prefecture. In 1900, Matsuo had risen to the position of bureau chief in the Finance Ministry. Matsuo was BOJ Governor from October 20, 1903 to June 1, 1911. During his term, the bank managed the money supply to restrain inflation. In 1904, Matsuo assembled the heads of 35 commercial banks, offering favourable terms for lending by BOJ. Matsuo construed complaints about "bad times" to mean that economic conditions were normal, and that there had been diminished opportunities for speculation.
His first season at Real Madrid ended trophyless. Following Raúl's departure, Ronaldo was handed the number 7 shirt for Real Madrid before the 2010–11 season. His subsequent return to his Ballon d'Or-winning form was epitomised when, for the first time in his career, he scored four goals in a single match during a 6–1 rout against Racing Santander on 23 October. His haul concluded a goalscoring run of six consecutive matches (three in La Liga, one in the Champions League, and two for Portugal) totalling 11 goals, the most he had scored in a single month. Ronaldo subsequently scored further hat-tricks against Athletic Bilbao, Levante, Villarreal, and Málaga. Despite his performance, he did not make the podium for the inaugural FIFA Ballon d'Or at the end of 2010. During a historical series of four "Clásicos" against rivals Barcelona in April 2011, Ronaldo scored twice to equal his personal record of 42 goals in all competitions in a single season. Although he failed to find the net during Madrid's eventual elimination in the Champions League semi-finals, he equalised from the penalty spot in the return league game and scored the match-winning goal in the 103rd minute of the Copa del Rey final, winning his first trophy in Spain. Over the next two weeks, Ronaldo scored another four-goal haul against Sevilla, a hat-trick against Getafe, and a brace of free kicks against Villarreal, taking his league total to 38 goals, which equalled the record for most goals scored in a season held by Telmo Zarra and Hugo Sánchez. His two goals in the last match of the season, against Almería, made him the first player in La Liga to score 40 goals. In addition to the Pichichi Trophy, Ronaldo consequently won the European Golden Shoe for a second time, becoming the first player to win the award in two different leagues. During the following campaign, the 2011–12 season, Ronaldo surpassed his previous goalscoring feats to achieve a new personal best of 60 goals across all competitions. His 100th goal for Real Madrid came at Camp Nou in the Supercopa de España, though Barcelona claimed the trophy 5–4 on aggregate. He regained a place on the FIFA Ballon d'Or podium, as runner-up to Messi, after scoring hat-tricks against Real Zaragoza, Rayo Vallecano, Málaga, Osasuna, and Sevilla, the last of which put Madrid on top of the league by the season's midway point.
Laetifautor elegans Laetifautor elegans is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Calliostomatidae. The size of the shell varies between 3 mm and 8 mm. This marine species occurs off Japan.
Cañete la Real Cañete la Real is a town and municipality in the province of Málaga, part of the autonomous community of Andalusia in southern Spain. It is located on the northwest boundary of the province. The municipality is situated approximately 100 kilometers from Málaga. It is a border town between the Serrania de Ronda and the comarca of Antequera and rises 742 meters above the sea level. The bordering municipalities with Cañete are: to the north Almargen (Málaga), El Saucejo and Algámitas (Seville);to the east Teba;to the southeast Ardales and El Burgo; to the southwest Cuevas del Becerro and Ronda and to the west Alcalá del Valle and Olvera, belonging to Cadiz. The slopes of the mountains surrounding the town are covered with groves of oak and scrub pine between limestone rocks. The vegetation is a majority of rosemary and thyme. Among the wildlife that inhabits this area one can find the griffon vulture, eagle, owl, fox, bobcat, etc. The main rivers in the municipality are the Guadalteba or Ortegícar, which crosses the south of the municipality, servicing the reservoir of the same name. The Corbones, a tributary of the Guadalquivir River, begins in the environs of La Atalaya, a hamlet of Cañete La Real. The name "Cañete" comes from the Arabic name "Hisn Qanit", which means “castle of Qanit”, while others believe it refers to the "caños", meaning "springs" that still flow in some parts of the urban district. "La Real" means "royal" which refers to King Alfonso XI.
An estimated 10% of all birth defects are caused by prenatal exposure to a teratogenic agent. These exposures include medication or drug exposures, maternal infections and diseases, and environmental and occupational exposures. Paternal smoking use has also been linked to an increased risk of birth defects and childhood cancer for the offspring, where the paternal germline undergoes oxidative damage due to cigarette use. Teratogen-caused birth defects are potentially preventable. Nearly 50% of pregnant women have been exposed to at least one medication during gestation. During pregnancy, a woman can also be exposed to teratogens from the contaminated clothing or toxins within the seminal fluid of a partner. An additional study found that of 200 individuals referred for genetic counseling for a teratogenic exposure, 52% were exposed to more than one potential teratogen. The United States Environmental Protection Agency studied 1,065 chemical and drug substances in their ToxCast program (part of the CompTox Chemicals Dashboard) using in silica modeling and a human pluripotent stem cell-based assay to predict in vivo developmental intoxicants based on changes in cellular metabolism following chemical exposure. Findings of the study published in 2020 were that 19% of the 1065 chemicals yielded a prediction of developmental toxicity. Probably, the most well-known teratogenic drug is thalidomide. It was developed near the end of the 1950s by Chemie Grünenthal as a sleep-inducing aid and antiemetic. Because of its ability to prevent nausea, it was prescribed for pregnant women in almost 50 countries worldwide between 1956 and 1962. Until William McBride published the study leading to its withdrawal from the market at 1961, about 8,000 to 10,000 severely malformed children were born. The most typical disorder induced by thalidomide were reductional deformities of the long bones of the extremities. Phocomelia, otherwise a rare deformity, therefore helped to recognise the teratogenic effect of the new drug. Among other malformations caused by thalidomide were those of ears, eyes, brain, kidney, heart, and digestive and respiratory tracts; 40% of the prenatally affected children died soon after birth. As thalidomide is used today as a treatment for multiple myeloma and leprosy, several births of affected children were described in spite of the strictly required use of contraception among female patients treated by it. Vitamin A is the sole vitamin that is embryotoxic even in a therapeutic dose, for example in multivitamins, because its metabolite, retinoic acid, plays an important role as a signal molecule in the development of several tissues and organs.
While they already have all the necessary structures, very young animals have a restricted visual field and lower resolution and sensitivity to light. The great improvement of vision after only three days happens due to the sclerotisation of the cuticle that includes the corneal lenses of the ommatidia. The improved lenses are not able to focus the light on the retina. Few remarkable new findings have happened concerning the visual system of different mantid species, such as "Sphodromantis lineola"; using three-dimensional glasses and a 3D-cinema on the insects, stereopsis could be demonstrated. Comparable experiments with "M. religiosa" would be worthwhile, since the two species are rather closely related.

Bhoot Bungla Bhoot Bungla is a 1965 Bollywood horror comedy film directed by Mehmood, who stars in the film alongside Tanuja and Nazir Hussain. Music for this film was composed by R.D. Burman. The film title is a common Hindi expression meaning haunted house, or literally, a ghost house. Fifty years ago, Kundanlal was murdered and his wife and child vanished on a dark night, at the haunted bungalow surrounded by a jungle in the outskirts of Bombay. In the present, three brothers are living in the bungalow, who are Kundanlal's nephews. They are Shyamlal (Nazir Hussain), Ramlal (Nana Palsikar) and Ramu. On the eve of Ramlal's daughter Rekha's (Tanuja) return from London, Ramlal is killed in a car accident which is suspected as murder. The suspicion is reinforced when Ramu is found hanging in his bedroom on the same night. Postmortem reports claim he was murdered before being hanged. Shyamlal and Rekha move out of the bungalow to their home in the city and live there. However Rekha receives threatening phone calls about her death. She meets Mohan Kumar (Mehmood), the president of a local youth club, when he defeats her in a music competition. She soon confides to Mohan about the phone calls and Mohan begins to investigate into the calls. Rekha and Mohan soon fall in love with each other.
Due to its proximity to the Pacific Ocean, heavy fogs and low overcasts are common throughout the year, sometimes producing light drizzle. Stray showers sometimes occur during the mostly dry summer months. January, the coldest month, normally has high temperatures in the upper fifties (~14 °C) and low temperatures in the middle forties (~8 °C). Freezing temperatures are extremely rare, especially near the ocean. September, the warmest month, normally has high temperatures in the upper sixties (~20 °C) and lows in the lower fifties (~11 °C). Temperatures rarely exceed 90 °F (32 °C) and whenever there are daytime temperatures above 80 °F (27 °C) it still cools to the fifties (~13 °C) at night. During experimental observations by a U.S. Geological Survey volunteer (from 1985 to 1989), the highest temperature was an amazing 100 °F (38 °C) and the lowest was 31 °F (-0.5 °C). The nearest official National Weather Service station is at Half Moon Bay. Recently, an automated weather station was set up in Montara, providing regular observations on the National Weather Service's website, weather.gov. At the 2010 census Montara had a population of 2,909. The population density was 750.1 people per square mile (289.6/km²). The racial makeup of Montara was 2,491 (85.6%) White, 16 (0.6%) African American, 21 (0.7%) Native American, 142 (4.9%) Asian, 1 (0.0%) Pacific Islander, 97 (3.3%) from other races, and 141 (4.8%) from two or more races. Hispanic or Latino of any race were 324 people (11.1%). The whole population lived in households, no one lived in non-institutionalized group quarters and no one was institutionalized. There were 1,109 households, 351 (31.7%) had children under the age of 18 living in them, 666 (60.1%) were opposite-sex married couples living together, 77 (6.9%) had a female householder with no husband present, 46 (4.1%) had a male householder with no wife present. There were 59 (5.3%) unmarried opposite-sex partnerships, and 17 (1.5%) same-sex married couples or partnerships. 209 households (18.8%) were one person and 72 (6.5%) had someone living alone who was 65 or older.

United States of Whatever "United States of Whatever" is a song by American musician Liam Lynch. The song was released in 2002 as the first single from his album "Fake Songs". The improvised song was written by Lynch himself. "United States of Whatever" is a comedy rock song that revolves around Lynch dismissively shouting "Whatever!" to various people. The song received mostly positive reviews from music critics who praised its humor and its take on American youth. It reached number ten on the UK Singles Chart, and until 2007 was the shortest song to appear on the chart. As of 12 December 2018 it is still the shortest single to reach the Top 10. The song has spawned various parodies, and Lynch has performed the song with artists like Tony Kanal, Adrian Young and Foo Fighters. "United States of Whatever" was solely written by Liam Lynch. Lynch has stated that the song was improvised and recorded in a single take. The song is performed in a punk rock and surf rock style. Its basic structure consists of two power-chord riffs played by an overdriven distorted bass guitar. The song begins with a dismissive "whatever", and each verse describes a short encounter with a person which abruptly ends with Lynch dismissing the person with the word. The chorus proclaims: "This is my United States of whatever!" He also dismisses people he should not ignore for his own well-being, such as a street thug and a police officer. The final verse describes an encounter with Zafo, a character from the TV series "The Sifl and Olly Show", created by Lynch. Breaking the lyrical structure of the song, Zafo is spared the disparaging remark. The song debuted on a 1999 episode of "The Sifl and Olly Show", where it is shown being performed by Olly, a character on the show voiced by Lynch. While reviewing "Fake Songs" MacKenzie Wilson of the website Allmusic specifically praised "United States of Whatever", describing it as a "sock-puppet favorite" and "an absolute standout that crassly makes fun of American youth in its own self-deprecating kind of way." The review also noted that the British music publication "NME" named it as a "Single of the Week" in 2002. English disc jockey Steve Lamacq named it "the greatest single of 2002". The song first attracted commercial popularity when it started appearing on the request charts on Los Angeles radio station KROQ after the song was leaked from a British import of "The Sifl and Olly Show".

Carl Emil Mundt Carl Emil Mundt (4 April 1802 –22 December 1873) was a Danish educator and politician. He was a member of the 1848 Danish Constituent Assembly, representing Sorø. He was the father of painter Emilie Mundt. Mundt was born in Copenhagen, the son of goldsmith Philip Mundt (1740-1804) and Mette Christiane née Winther (1757-1827). He graduated from Metropolitan School in 1821. He visited Rngland together with his brother J.H. Mundt in 1925-26 and obtained a degree in theology from the University of Copenhagen in 1829. He obtained a master's degree in mathematics in 1842. Mundt was employed as a mathematics teacher at Sorø Academy the following year. He left Sorø Academy in connection with its reorganisation in 1849 but was awarded a temporary compensation and title of professor and that same year. He was also accepted as a member of the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences. He moved to Frederiksberg a few years later and started working as a supervisor in the "realskole" system. He was awarded the Order of the Dannebrog in 1869. In 1848, Mundt was elected for the Danish Constituent Assembly in the Sorø Constituency. He became a member of the Landsting in 1854 but lost his mandate at the 1855 reelection. Mundt's only scientific work publications were his doctoral dissertation and one other work. He wrote a number of textbooks on mathematics and astronomy. These included: Mundt married Caroline (Amalie) Jørgensen (1808-1845), a daughter of miller Hans Henrik Jørgensen (1772-1828) and Sophie Frederikke Pedersen (1776-1832), on 3 August 1833 in Bromme. They had three children: Lawyer Jodochus Henrik Mundt, painter Emilie Mundt and medical doctor Christopher Mundt. He died on 22 December 1873 and is buried in Sorø Old Cemetery.
Carly felt Jack's unconditional love. The doctor who treated Carly at the spa was eventually arrested and persuaded by Jack to undo the damage he did to Carly's face. With her face restored, she and Jack settled into a happy life when Jack proposed at Hal and Emily's wedding with Carly saying yes. Unfortunately, Jack and Carly's happiness wouldn't last long. Jack was jealous over Carly's friendship and working relationship with Craig, who made no secret that he would like to bed Carly, and the couple argued bitterly and Jack the night before their wedding called their engagement off, leaving Carly devastated. She drank too much champagne and found comfort in former flame and friend Mike Kasnoff and the two made love. Jack came to his senses and returned to her the next morning begging forgiveness and the two reconciled in time for their glorious wedding. Carly decided to keep the one night stand with Mike a secret. On the day of Jack and Carly's Halloween wedding, Julia returned to town with a baby, Jack Jr., claiming he was Jack's and a product of the incident in which Julia drugged and raped him. Though the paternity test confirmed this, later it was discovered that the child was stolen by Julia in an attempt to further torture Jack, and was returned to his biological parents. Though the marriage started on happy note with Carly expecting their baby, it soured when Jack learned about the night Carly spent with Mike before their wedding, and that the baby might not be his after all. Bitter at being kept in the dark yet again, Jack threw Carly out of his house. He contemplated divorce, and at one point had papers drawn. Though still jealous of Mike, Jack softened when he finally realized the child could actually be his and he agreed to help Carly in her pregnancy. To that end, when Carly was ordered to avoid stress in order to ensure a safe delivery, Jack pleaded with Carly to stop all work at Monte Carlo. Unfortunately, Carly wouldn't listen—especially when she found out Barbara was trying to get her job. Later Barbara disappeared and later resurfaced claiming that she'd been kidnapped. Skeptical at first, Jack did some digging and discovered that Craig, Rose and Emily did in fact kidnap Barbara. Not wanting the others to suffer, Jack kept quiet about the crime only to be ratted out by Henry Coleman. Not long after, Carly, who was suffering a creative block, was accused of ripping off Barbara's designs and Jack blew up at her. By the time he learned that Craig had actually stolen Barbara's ideas without Carly's knowledge, Carly had disappeared to quietly have her baby in Montana without telling anyone.
On 14 December, it was announced that the death toll had risen to fifteen as another injured person died in hospital. A day later, an Australian citizen who was repatriated died in hospital, bringing the death toll to sixteen, plus two victims whose bodies had not been recovered. Another victim died from injuries in hospital, pushing the death toll to 19 including two missing people that were presumed dead. A further victim died at a hospital in Australia on 12 January 2020 bring the total to 20. Authorities were still working to recover two more bodies, although as of 15 January efforts were scaled down. Over the days following the initial eruption, the death toll steadily rose as bodies were recovered from the island and as several of the severely burnt victims succumbed to their injuries. On 15 December it was announced that the death toll had risen to sixteen. The fatalities were identified as thirteen Australian tourists, three Americans and two New Zealand men who worked as guides for White Island Tours. Another victim, an American woman, succumbed to her injuries on 22 December, raising the confirmed death toll to 17 and the number of the American fatalities to four. An Australian man and an American man died of their injuries in January 2020, while the two missing people are officially declared as dead, bringing the death toll to twenty-one. Due to the severe injuries sustained by those on the island, identification of the deceased was carried out by a variety of individuals including a pathologist, a forensic dentist, and a fingerprint officer. This work was also aided by officers creating a profile on the victims, which included descriptions of appearance, clothing, photos, fingerprints, medical and dental records, and DNA samples. The information was then matched to evidence gathered from the deceased individual in the post-mortem examination. All but three of the survivors suffered severe or critical injuries and the vast majority were badly burned. They were initially taken to Whakatane Hospital, where they were triaged and stabilised before being transferred to other hospitals. Whakatane Hospital, Tauranga Hospital, and Waikato Hospital in Hamilton all activated their mass casualty plans. On 10 December, the Ministry of Health announced that twenty-five people had been transferred to the country's four burns units in Auckland (Middlemore), Hamilton, Lower Hutt and Christchurch, all of which were at capacity. On 11 December, it was reported that New Zealand had ordered of skin from the United States and Australia to treat patients following the eruption, some of whom have burns on up to 95% of their bodies. Three survivors suffered slight injuries.
War took a heavy tool on the livestock sectors, where the entire livestock and machinery manufacturing units were completely destroyed. After liberation, some farmers recovered their farms, slowly increasing the number of heads of cows, calves, sheep, goats etc. The privatization process has also caused damage by converting agricultural land to commercial and residential properties. Plant productivity: high trees about 300 ha, 10 ha of soft fruit, 100 ha of commercial greenhouses, cereals white surface with 3500 ha, 2500 ha area with corn, other crops area with about 3500 ha. Number of farmers involved in agricultural activities, livestock is 150 orchards, 100 greenhouses, farm of dairy cows over 20 are four mini farms of dairy cows from 4 to 20 cows near 300, mini farms for obesity 6 calves, 80 sheep farms, 42 goat farms, beekeeping 100, 9 Farms chickens, farm birds for meat - 2 broilers, sports Farm 1, Vali ranch Përlepnice village.

Later, after the rebellion was suppressed, Emperor Ling issued an edict to honour the seven as the "Seven Virtuous" (七賢). Chen State (陳國; around present-day Zhoukou, Henan), one of the commanderies in Yu Province and the princedom of Liu Chong, was rather peaceful during the rebellion. This was because the rebels feared Liu Chong, who was famous for his prowess in archery, and an elite archer unit under his command. The rebels in Runan Commandery, led by Bo Cai (波才), initially defeated Zhu Jun in battle and drove him back. The imperial court then sent Cao Cao, a cavalry commandant, to lead reinforcements to assist Zhu Jun. Sometime between 28 May and 25 June, Zhu Jun, Huangfu Song and Cao Cao joined forces and defeated Bo Cai at Changshe (長社; east of present-day Changge, Henan). While Bo Cai attempted to flee, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun pursued him to Yangzhai County (陽翟縣; present-day Yuzhou, Henan) and defeated him again there, causing the rebels to scatter. Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun then defeated the rebels in Runan Commandery, led by Peng Tuo (彭脫), at Xihua County (西華縣; south of present-day Xihua County, Henan). The imperial court then ordered them to split up: Huangfu Song would attack the rebels at Dong Commandery (東郡; around present-day Puyang County, Henan), while Zhu Jun would attack the rebels at Nanyang Commandery. During this time, Wang Yun, the Inspector of Yu Province, found evidence that the rebels had been secretly maintaining contact with Zhang Rang (張讓), the leader of the eunuch faction in Luoyang, so he reported it to Emperor Ling, who scolded Zhang Rang but did not punish him. Between 7 November and 6 December, Bao Hong (鮑鴻), a colonel, led imperial forces to attack the rebels in Gebei (葛陂; northwest of present-day Xincai County, Henan) and defeated them. In the meantime, Lu Zhi defeated Zhang Jue's rebel forces in Julu Commandery and besieged the rebel leader in Guangzong County (廣宗縣; southeast of present-day Guangzong County, Hebei).
Derriford Hospital Derriford Hospital is a large teaching hospital in Plymouth, England. The hospital serves Plymouth and nearby areas of Devon and Cornwall. It also provides tertiary cardiothoracic surgery, neurosurgery and renal transplant surgery for the whole of the South West Peninsula. It is managed by the University Hospitals Plymouth NHS Trust. It was designated a Regional Trauma Centre in 2013. A helipad capable of night operation was opened in 2015, to replace the existing daytime-only grass pad. The hospital is used for clinical training of medical students from the Peninsula Medical School which is maintained by the University of Plymouth. It is one of five hospitals with an attached MOD hospital unit to cater to service personnel. In 1950, there was a proposal for a single hospital for the Plymouth area. The regional hospital board decided that this would be built at Derriford, at the cost of £2million (). The planned hospital was expected to have around 900 beds, and would be built service by service as the other hospitals around Plymouth are closed. After all services transferred from Plymouth General Hospital and renal services started transferring from the Freedom Fields Hospital, Derriford Hospital officially opened in 1981 and became the primary hospital in Plymouth. When it opened, two wards were allocated to create a school for hospitalised children. The school continued to provide education for 30 years until it was replaced by the newly-opened Plymouth Hospital and Outreach School in 2011. In August 2011, a purpose built dialysis unit was added to the hospital and, in 2012, the Peninsula Trauma Centre opened, receiving 400 patients by Air Ambulance each year. In 2015, a new helipad was built at the hospital, at the cost of £1.7M. The new helipad is large enough to accept search and rescue helicopters, and was the first in the region to allow night time landings. Derriford is a teaching hospital, linked to the Peninsula Medical School, and has a Ministry of Defence Hospital Unit integrated into the facility, with military personnel working in medical roles. The hospital includes specialist services, including pancreatic cancer surgery, plastic surgery and neonatal intensive care. In 2016, more than 48,000 people used the hospital each week, accessing 900 beds and 1,000 car parking spaces. The bus terminal at the hospital is the second largest in Plymouth.
And that someone will be the one to see how your children grow up". Raymond Acosta also contributed his vocals to "Si Tu No Cuidas Tu Mujer". Voltio follows with "Atrevida Bandolera" ("Bold Outlaw"). The song also appears on the special edition release remixed by Santana. The lone female performer on the album delivers "Que Es La Que Hay" (Who Is The One?), produced by Noriega and Rafi Mercenario. Lyrically, Queen reassures that she can handle her own in any situation that may arise. In the lyrics, she tells someone to "Go tell your friend not to fuck with the bitch, she is mistaken, and is looking for a war, tell her we'll give it to her real hard, I walk with my combo, and are they are crazy to be loosed". Queen explained to the "Dominican Times", that the song is proof of her inner strength as a person. She continued by saying that "this philosophy is the present reality that we live in the world and especially in Puerto Rico". The song was later featured on Machete Music's "Reggaetón Diamond Collection" (2005), which peaked at number fifty-seven on the "Billboard" Latin Albums chart and number twelve on the "Billboard" Latin Rhythm Albums chart. Johnny Prez is featured next with "Nebuleando Conmigo" ("Conspiring With Me"). Veteran reggaetón recording artist Wiso G appears with "Medley 2004". Eddie Dee closes the album with "Sácame El Guante" ("Get Me The Glove"), in which Lennox contributes his vocals. "Censuarme" performed by Eddie Dee speaks of violence and poverty as it relates to Dee's personal experiences. Lyrically, he also claims that society criticizes him for being a rapper. He later criticizes the Puerto Rican senate's attempts to ban reggaeton music. Among other subjects, the song also addresses government corruption and media censorship. The song also identifies and explores racial differences as well as the criminalization of the African American community. "Taladro", ("The Drill"), performed by Eddie Dee in collaboration with Daddy Yankee opens the special edition release of the "12 Discípulos". It was released as the fourth and final single off the album. La Secta's "La Locura Automatica" appears second featuring Eddie Dee. A salsa remix of the lead single appears as a bonus track on the special edition release, renamed "Quitate Tu Pa' Ponerme Yo" ("Get Out The Way, So I Can Take Your Place").
The total negotiating time had been 43 hours. The city agreed to an incremental raise of 70 cents per hour over the next two years, starting with an immediate raise of 25 cents per hour. The city also agreed to negotiate a new system for reckoning absences. According to these terms, annual salary for a starting full-time waste collector would be about $7,800. The city also promised full medical coverage and no reprisals for the strikers. Some of the strikers returned to work late on that day. None of the union leaders were jailed. The charges against Wurf and Lucy were dropped in November. Judge Murphy fined the union $90,000, to be paid out of workers' checks (a cost of approximately $9 per worker). Mayor Schaefer promised that "taxpayers are not going to pay for one red cent for this year's settlement," suggesting that 300 public sector workers would be laid off to accommodate the raise. 60–70 prison guards walked off their jobs on July 18 in reaction to the suspension of 23 guards for striking. The suspension decision was reversed that night. Members of the CMEA rejected a merger with AFSCME in August, expressing dissatisfaction with the strike. Governor Marvin Mandel, in the midst of a campaign for re-election, took some flak from labor leaders for his role in the strike (backing Schaefer and Pomerleau). The Baltimore police force was understaffed for at least the rest of the year and reported substantial increases in crime. AFSCME was the major negotiator for municipal workers when their contracts were renegotiated in 1976. It negotiated a 4% raise for municipal workers; the city also agreed to impose mandatory fees for non-union workers who benefited from the negotiations. This bargain was not popular with the workers themselves, many of whom shouted and screamed at president Ray Clarke after his announcement.

Buma/Stemra BUMA/STEMRA are two private organizations in the Netherlands, the Buma Association (Dutch: "Vereniging Buma") and the Stemra Foundation (Dutch: "Stichting Stemra") that operate as one single company that acts as the Dutch collecting society for composers and music publishers. The Buma Association was set up by Dutch music authors and publishers in 1913, one year after the Dutch Copyright Act was passed. In 1936, with the arrival of the gramophone record, the replication of music multiplied. Realising its impact, the members of the Buma Association created the Stemra Foundation, which focuses on the replication of recorded works of music, ranging from LPs to CDs to Internet and mobile phones. In 2001, Buma/Stemra sued Consumer Empowerment, then the owners of Kazaa in the Netherlands. The court ordered Kazaa's owners to take steps to prevent its users from violating copyrights or else pay a heavy fine. In October 2001 a lawsuit was filed against Consumer Empowerment by members of the music and motion picture industry in the USA. In response Consumer Empowerment sold the Kazaa application to Sharman Networks, headquartered in Australia and incorporated in Vanuatu. In late March 2002, a Dutch court of appeal reversed an earlier judgment and stated that Kazaa was not responsible for the actions of its users. Buma/Stemra lost its appeal before the Supreme Court of the Netherlands in December 2003.

In addition to these, there are two Roman Catholic communities, those of Lorch and Waldhausen, as well as a new apostolic community, which was formed after the new apostolic communities of Lorch and Waldhausen were merged in 2008. The Arbeitskreis Ökologie und Umwelt (AKÖ) is a body set up by the local council and consisting of citizens, which advises the local council on ecological issues and is intended to promote public environmental awareness. It met for the first time on 22 June 1990 and has held 81 meetings since then until June 2010. The blazoning of the coat of arms reads: "In split shield in front in gold the black capital letter L, behind in black a golden lion. The letter L has been in the seal of the Blur since the 15th century. The Staufer lion in confused colors is intended to remind the town of its affiliation to the Staufer heartland. The coat of arms was introduced in 1934 [24]. Due to the common Staufer past, the town of Oria (Apulia) has been a twin town of Lorch since 1972. The flag-wavers of Oria became famous, which also occasionally appear at larger events in Lorch. There are friendly relations with Aflenz in Austrian Styria.

Twilight's Last Gleaming Cross Country Challenge Twilight's Last Gleaming Cross Country Challenge is a four mile, annual cross country style running race. It is held on the same course, in and around Arroyo Verde Park, annually on the last Saturday in October, starting at 5 p.m. The race was the last race of the Southern California USATF Cross Country Grand Prix series before the final. The 2015 event will be on October 24. The race was started in 1986 by television director and eccentric track and field enthusiast Andrew Hecker. He devised this event on encouragement from another local, eccentric race director Brian Pritchard, who at the time the Long Distance Running Chairman for Southern California TAC (The Athletics Congress), the predecessor of the modern day USATF. Seeing Hecker's enthusiasm for helping at local events he asked "So Andrew, when are you going to put on a race?" This race became the answer. The original intent with the name and schedule of the race was to coincide with the last day of Daylight saving time. When the U.S. Government decided to change the weekend of the time change, it was decided to keep the race on the same, final Saturday in October, schedule. When there is a large wildfire in the Ventura County area, the park where the race is held has been procured as a secluded housing area for the firefighters, canceling all other events in the park. There have been a few occasions over the years when the race has had to be re-scheduled into the month of November. The weather on those occasions has been less pleasant, though the race is announced as "Rain or Shine." Arroyo Verde Park, off Foothill Road at the end of Day Road, is one of the most distinctive parks in the Ventura, California Park System. It is nestled in a canyon of oak-thickets, with steep hills covered by chaparral on both sides. The steep hills are part of the distinctive and challenging course, which boasts over 1200 feet of elevation gain (and loss) over its four miles. The hills are notable. The first is the Skyline hill, a residential city street adjacent to the park, rising almost 400 feet in just over half a mile. The next one is referred to as "The Finger," as in the obscene gesture, which ultimately winds down to the base of the steepest hill on the course, called "The Wall" which achieves almost a 20 percent grade. The 2 mile, halfway point is on "The Wall."
Wem Vehicles of Interest Rally & Grand Parade also runs alongside the Sweet Pea Festival on the Sunday. A Wem 10km running race was instituted on 2019. There is a Wem Transport show annually in July. Within the town there are four main churches: The Crewe and Shrewsbury Railway was completed in 1858, and Wem was connected to national rail services from this time. The town has a small railway station located on the Welsh Marches Line. All services are operated by Transport for Wales. The majority of services that call at the station are between Shrewsbury and Crewe, however, some long-distance services to Manchester Piccadilly, Cardiff Central, Swansea, Carmarthen and Milford Haven also stop at the station during peak times. The canal network came closest to Wem at Whixhall and Edstaston; the Ellesmere canal was closed to navigation by Act of Parliament in 1944. There is an airfield at Sleap. The town is served by the 511 bus route, operated by Arriva Midlands North, which runs between Shrewsbury and Whitchurch. Some services terminate in Wem and do not continue to Whitchurch. St Peters is a Church of England primary school in Wem. Thomas Adams School is a state-funded secondary school, established in 1650. This was an independent grammar school until 1976, at which point it merged with Wem Modern School to form a comprehensive school. It also has a Sixth Form College on site. A number of private schools have operated in Wem over the centuries. William Hazlitt's father ran a 'model crammer for the dissenting rationalist' in the town, the 'Mrs Swanswick's School' ran from the late 1700s to the 1840s and one of its headmasters, Joseph Pattison, took a leading role in founding British Schools to educate children from less advantaged families. A further 6 private schools operated our of Wem over time. Since 1978, Wem has been twinned with Fismes in France, after which is named a road in Wem, Fismes Way. In 1995 an amateur photographer photographed a blaze which destroyed Wem Town Hall; the photo appeared to show the ghostly figure of a young female in a window of the burning building, dressed in 'old-fashioned' clothes. Although the photographer (who died in 2005) denied forgery, after his death it was suggested that the girl in his photo bore a 'striking similarity' with one in a postcard of the town from 1922.
Lensch considered himself a Marxist and saw Germany as the 'revolutionary' side of the conflict, with England as the 'counter-revolutionary'. It is unclear whether Lensch left the SPD in 1920, after being accused of having supported the Kapp Putsch, or was expelled in 1922.
Louis Hay James Augustus Louis Hay (14 January 1881 – 4 February 1948) was a prominent New Zealand architect. He designed many new Art Deco buildings in Napier after the 1931 earthquake that had destroyed much of the town. Louis was the eldest child and lived his early life in Lincoln, near Christchurch. In 1895, he moved with his family to Napier and attended Napier Boys' High School. After leaving school, Hay worked for Charles Tilleard Natusch's architectural practice. His later work is influenced by his time spent with Natusch and his interest in Frank Lloyd Wright, the Arts and Crafts Movement and Art Nouveau. In the early part of the 20th century Hay setup his own practice doing mostly houses for wealthy Hawke's Bay residents. Although one of his best works was the National Tobacco Company building initially completed in the 1920s. After the event of the Napier earthquake in 1931 where his wife was severely injured, Hay joined the Napier Reconstruction Committee. He helped ensure that local architects had control over the large rebuilding task instead of architects from other parts of the country. In Napier he was known not only for his architecture but for his other interests including boat building, waterskiing, acting and playing the flute.
She was born with a condition that has impaired the muscle power in both of her knees and is classified as T54. Perrine uses a wheelchair to compete. She qualified for Games because her time of 18.89 seconds at the Berlin Open Grand Prix 2016 was 0.01 seconds below the "B" qualifying standard for the women's 100 metres T54 event. Her participation at the Berlin Open Grand Prix served as preparation for the Paralympics and she also attended the IPC Athletics Grand Prix Final in London the week after. Perrine set herself the target of lowering her personal best and she said she was confident for her event. On 8 September, she participated in the heats of the women's 100 metres T54, and was assigned to the second heat. Perrine completed the race with a new national record time of 18:09 seconds, fifth out of six in her heat, and her competition came to an conclusion because only the top eight runners advanced to the next stage of the competition and she was tenth overall. Scody Victor, a veteran of the 2012 Summer Paralympics, was 27 years old at the time of the Rio Summer Games. He is classified as S9 because he has a limb deficiency and he uses prosthetic legs to aid in his mobility. The Bipartite Commission invited Victor to partake at the Rio de Janeiro Paralympics. He took part in competitions organised by the Mauritian Swimming Federation to prepare for the Games. Victor said before the Paralympics that he was happy to be in Rio de Janeiro and stated that he did not put pressure on himself, "I have lowered the pace of my training since yesterday, so I can recover enough for the competition. I do not know my opponents yet, but I will give everything in the pool to improve my time and qualify for the final." In the heats of the men's 100 metres freestyle S9 on 12 September, he was drawn into heat two. Victor finished the heat seventh and last of all swimmers with a time of one minute and 15.15 seconds. Only the top eight overall fastest swimmers could progress to the final, and he was eliminated because he was 20th overall.
This new formula was to prove the death-knell of 500 cc racing. In January 1960 Kent County Council gave planning permission for the extension of Brands Hatch – an extension which would double the length of the track offering a choice of long or short circuits. The new 2.65-mile track used, all of this existing one with the extension of Kidney Bend; South Bank became a long, uphill 160° sweep out into the country and making the approach to Clearways very much faster. From South Bank there followed a long straight dipping into and out of the next valley to the right-hand Hawthorn Bend followed by Portobello Straight to Westfield Bend leading to the dip to Dingle Dell, Dingle Dell Corner and the difficult left-hand Stirling's Bend. A short straight then brought the circuit back to Clearways at much higher speed than hitherto. John Hall said, "For the first time ever, Britain will have a Grand Prix track within 20 miles of London.’" The new track was planned to be completed in time for the August Bank Holiday meeting and was ready for testing in June. The debut of the new track came in August as planned, with work entries from BRM, Cooper, Ferrari, and Lotus together with independents such Yeoman Credit Racing, Scuderia Eugenio Castellotti and Scuderia Centro Sud. Record traffic jams were reported on the A20 and the resultant huge crowd saw, the non-championship "Silver City Trophy" Formula One race, won by Jack Brabham in the works Cooper-Climax win by just 4.4 seconds from Graham Hill in the BRM P48, after the gearbox of Jim Clark's Lotus expired after leading 22 of the 50-lap race. The fastest lap was set jointly by Clark and Brabham, in 1min 40.6sec, at a speed of 94.82 mph. Clark had his revenge a few weeks later when the circuit saw Formula Two cars performing in the "Kentish 100" with a hard-fought win over Dan Gurney; both were driving Lotus-Climaxes, Clark's was a works car and Gurney's a private entry. Soon after, the track was sold to Grovewood Securities Ltd., and John Webb put in charge of Motor Circuit Developments to manage the circuit. This was the year of the new 1.5-litre Formula One and on 3 June 1961, the "Silver City Trophy", was contested over 76 laps of the GP Circuit by Grand Prix cars.
These people survived on a diet based on some hunting and fishing along with the cultivation of maize and gourds, and later beans, and collection of tuberous marsh plants such as "Typha", "Canna", "Marantha" and Araceae. Nuts and phytoliths of "Butia odorata" are abundant here in association with the traces of human occupancy from even before the first evidence of the adoption of agriculture throughout many millennia of the mound-builder villages, thus indicating that the fruit and fronds were used, but it is unclear if the nearby palm groves were wild, cultivated or encouraged to spread (either by design or not). Around approximately AD 0 a new people moved into the north of this region from the Amazon, the ancestors of the Tupi-Guaraní peoples, which initially settled in the dense woodland along the margins of the larger rivers, where they practised slash-and-burn agriculture using crops such as cassava, peanuts, gourds, beans, potatoes and sweet potatoes. These peoples lived in sedentary to semi-permanent villages of numerous family longhouses arranged in circles around the centre, and had a culture including managing fallow lands for further agricultural production, wearing lip discs, ritual anthropophagic feasts with fermented beverages, long distance trade using roads, exclusive use of bark for fuel in pottery kilns and funerary hearths, and cremation with the remains buried in urns in the village centre. Nuts of "B. odorata" have been found in the remains of such a village dating from 1460–1800 AD. "B. odorata" is frequently grown in Mediterranean Europe, the southern USA, Australia and southern Brazil as an ornamental garden plant. It is notable as one of the hardiest feather palms, sometimes tolerating brief drops in temperature down to about −10 °C at night; it is often cultivated in subtropical climates. In Europe, this palm can be found close to the Mediterranean, though some specimens are cultivated as far north as southern U.K. In the United States, "B. odorata" is grown along the West Coast from San Diego to Seattle, and along the East Coast from Florida to Virginia Beach. In climates in the far north, such as the coastal areas of the Netherlands it is advised to plant the palms in full sunlight. Larger specimens are said to take -10 to -12 °C, but should be protected at -5 °C, for example by wrapping heating strips around the trunk.
These insights became the rich ingredients in his works. He shaped a new dimension to Chinese modern literature. Ye Shengtao Memorial Hall is located at the former site of The 5th High School where Ye Shengtao taught from 1917 to 1922. It is located beside the Baosheng Temple in Luzhi township, Wuzhong district of Suzhou city
Tai Tseng Wai Tai Tseng Wai () is a walled village in Wang Chau, Yuen Long District, Hong Kong. Tai Tseng Wai is located north of Kai Shan and Yuen Long Industrial Estate, next to the villages of Shing Uk Tsuen and Ng Uk Tsuen. The area north of the villages, Fung Lok Wai (), features fish ponds. Tai Tseng Wai is one of the 37 villages represented within the Ping Shan Rural Committee. For electoral purposes, Tai Tseng Wai is part of the Ping Shan North constituency. The three villages of Tai Tseng Wai, Ng Uk Tsuen and Shing Uk Tsuen all share the gods hall in Tai Tseng Wai and the Tin Hau temple near Ng Uk Tsuen.
Italian infantry had used wrecked tanks as cover for their advance, while many more lost hope and surrendered. During the night, some tanks from the Pimple arrived and four were knocked out by mines and gunfire, four got through with some lorries and the rest gave up. O'Connor had spent 6 February with Creagh at the 7th Armoured Division HQ, in touch with Mackay at the 6th Australian Division HQ. Advanced troops of the 19th Australian Brigade had entered Benghazi unopposed during the afternoon, to a great welcome by the Libyan inhabitants and during the night O'Connor ordered Mackay to send two battalions of infantry past Benghazi, to attack the tail end of the columns of the 10th Army. Just before dawn on 7 February, the 7th Support Group attacked the north end of the Italian convoys, the 2nd RTR moved south along the west side of the "Via Balbia" and the 1st RTR moved east, to cover the desert flank of Combeforce. The Italians had only about thirty tanks left and planned to force their way through Combeforce at dawn, before the British could attack the flanks and rear of the column. The attack had artillery support as soon as it was light enough to see movement by the anti-tank guns portée of the 106th RHA. The infantry of the 2nd Rifle Brigade stayed under cover as they were overrun by the Italian tanks, which concentrated on the RHA anti-tank guns. C Battery 4th RHA fired on the Rifle Brigade positions as the tanks passed and the Rifle Brigade resumed fire on Italian infantry following the tanks, to pin them down. The M13s knocked out all but one anti-tank gun and kept going into the reserve company area but the last gun was driven to a flank by the battery commander, his batman and the cook. The improvised crew commenced firing as the last M13s drove towards the Officers' mess tent put up the day before and knocked out the last tank from the tent. On the road, the Italians could hear British tank engines on the flanks and from the rear and further north, the 4th Armoured Brigade surrounded another group, at which point the Italians surrendered. The Australians had reached El Magrun, south of Ghemines, about half way to the Pimple and the 19th Australian Brigade Group battalions were ferried onwards with all speed. The Beda Fomm area had become a line of destroyed and abandoned lorries, about out or captured tanks and including Tellera (found mortally wounded in one of the M13s), Bergonzoli and the 10th Army staff.

Notopteridae The family Notopteridae contains ten species of osteoglossiform (bony-tongued) fishes, commonly known as featherbacks and knifefishes. These fishes live in freshwater or brackish environments in Africa, and South and Southeast Asia. With the denotation of "knifefish", the Notopterids should not be confused with Gymnotiformes, the electric knifefishes from South and Central America. Although their manner of swimming is similar and they are superficially similar in appearance, the two groups are not closely related. A few of the larger species, especially "Chitala ornata", are food fish and occasionally aquarium pets. The name is from Greek "noton" meaning "back" and "pteron" meaning "fin". Featherbacks have slender, elongated, bodies, giving them a knife-like appearance. The caudal fin is small and fused with the anal fin, which runs most of the length of the body. Where present, the dorsal fin is small and narrow, giving rise to the common name of "featherback". The fish swims by holding its body rigid and rippling the anal fin to propel itself forward or backwards. Notopterids have specialized swim bladders. The organ extends throughout the body and even into the fins in some cases. Although the swim bladder is not highly vascularised, it can absorb oxygen from air and also functions to produce sound by squeezing air through a narrow passage into the pharynx. At least some species prepare nests and guard the eggs until they hatch. The ten species in four genera are:
Pool Test Reactor Pool Test Reactor (PTR) was a 10 kWt ordinary (light) water moderated pool-type reactor fueled with highly enriched uranium built at Chalk River in 1957. It used 93% enriched uranium-aluminum plate-type fuel. The reactor, was used for burnup measurement of fissile samples from NRX. The reactor was designed and built by Canadair. On November 29, 1957 the reactor attained first criticality and shortly took over the function of ZEEP for measuring reactivity effects of materials, particularly after irradiation. It was shut down and defueled in 1990.
In recent years, families also started having dinner out, and as on Mother's Day, it is one of the busiest days for restaurants. At school, children handcraft presents for their fathers. Consumer goods companies have all sorts of special offers for fathers: socks, ties, electronics, suits, and men's healthcare products. In Norway, Father's day ("Farsdag"), is celebrated on the second Sunday of November. It is not a public holiday. In Poland, Father's Day () is celebrated on June 23 and is not a public holiday. Google also created its Doodle for Father's Day 2019 Father's Day ("Dia do Pai") is celebrated on March 19 (see Roman Catholic tradition below) in Portugal. It is not a bank and public holiday. The Law instituting the Father's day celebration in Romania passed on September 29, 2009 and stated that Father's day will be celebrated annually on the second Sunday of May. First time it was celebrated on May 9th 2010. This year it will be celebrated on 10 May 2020. The next dates this celebration will take place are: May 2021, May 2022, May 2023, May 2024, May 2025, May 2026 and May 2027. . Russia continues the Soviet Union's tradition of celebrating Defender of the Fatherland Day on 23 February. It is usually called "Man's Day" and it is considered the Russian equivalent of Father's Day. In Slovakia, Father's Day () is celebrated on the third Sunday of June. It is not a public holiday. Father's Day ("El Día del Padre") is observed on the feast day of Saint Joseph, which is March 19. It is celebrated as a public holiday in some regions of Spain. In Sweden, Father's day ("Fars dag"), is celebrated on the second Sunday of November but is not a public holiday. In Ukraine, Father's Day ("Den Batka") is celebrated on the third Sunday of June. It is not a public holiday. In the United Kingdom, Father's Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June. The day does not have a long tradition; "The English Year" (2006) states that it entered British popular culture "sometime after the Second World War, not without opposition". Singer songwriter Jon Barker also contributed to the UK's Father's Day culture by releasing the now popular song "Thank you for being my dad". The song reached charts around the world and is widely played at funerals each year around the world. In Canada, Father's Day is celebrated on the third Sunday of June and is not a public holiday.
The skydiving team trained at SkyDance SkyDiving and had hoped the opening ceremony appearance would set the stage for skydiving becoming a medal event by 2000. Hosting the 1988 Olympics presented an opportunity to bring international attention to South Korea. The idea for South Korea to place a bid for the 1988 Games emerged during the last days of the Park Chung-hee administration in the late 1970s. After President Park's assassination in 1979, Chun Doo-hwan, his successor, submitted Korea's bid to the IOC in September 1981, in hopes that the increased international exposure brought by the Olympics would legitimize his authoritarian regime amidst increasing political pressure for democratization, provide protection from increasing threats from North Korea, and showcase the Korean economic miracle to the world community. South Korea was awarded the bid on 30 September 1981, becoming the 20th host nation (16th in the Summer Olympics), as well as the second Asian nation (following Japan in the 1964 Summer Olympics) and the first mainland Asian nation. Copying the model of 1964 Tokyo Olympics as a rite of passage for the Japanese economy and re-integration of Japan in the family of nations in the post-war era, the South Korean government hoped to use the Olympics as a "coming-out party". The Olympics gave a powerful impetus to the development of South Korea's relations with Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union and with China. In utilizing media events theory, Larson and Park investigated the 1988 Seoul Olympics as a form of political communication. They revealed the significance of South Korea's military government throughout the period of the Olympic bid and preparation, followed by the many advantages of the Seoul Olympics: rapid economic modernization, social mobilization and the legitimization of the military dictatorship. Existing camps for "vagrants" (homeless persons) were ramped up prior to the 1988 Olympics. An Associated Press article states that homeless and alcoholic persons, "but mostly children and the disabled" were arrested and sent to these camps to prepare for the Olympics. In addition, a prosecutor had his investigation into the Brothers Home camp limited at a number of levels of government "in part out of fear of an embarrassing international incident on the eve of the Olympics." In 1975, the previous president of South Korea had begun a policy of rounding up vagrants. According to government documents obtained by the Associated Press, from 1981 to 1986 the number of persons held increased from 8,600 to more than 16,000. Police officers often received promotions based on the number of vagrants they had arrested, and owners of facilities received a subsidy based on the number of persons held.
Clinton had established a significant lead over Trump in national polls throughout most of 2016. In early July, Clinton's lead narrowed in national polling averages following the FBI's re-opening of its investigation into her ongoing email controversy. On July 15, 2016, Trump announced his selection of Indiana governor Mike Pence as his running mate. Four days later, the two were officially nominated by the Republican Party at the Republican National Convention. The list of convention speakers and attendees included former presidential nominee Bob Dole, but the other prior nominees did not attend. On September 26, 2016, Trump and Clinton faced off in their first presidential debate, which was held at Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York. The second presidential debate was held at Washington University in Saint Louis, Missouri. The beginning of that debate was dominated by references to a recently leaked tape of Trump making sexually explicit comments, which Trump countered by referring to alleged sexual misconduct on the part of Bill Clinton. Prior to the debate, Trump had invited four women who had accused Bill Clinton of impropriety to a press conference. The final presidential debate was held on October 19 at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Trump's refusal to say whether he would accept the result of the election, regardless of the outcome, drew particular attention, with some saying it undermined democracy. Trump's campaign platform emphasized renegotiating U.S.–China relations and free trade agreements such as NAFTA and the Trans-Pacific Partnership, strongly enforcing immigration laws, and building a new wall along the U.S.–Mexico border. His other campaign positions included pursuing energy independence while opposing climate change regulations such as the Clean Power Plan and the Paris Agreement, modernizing and expediting services for veterans, repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act, abolishing Common Core education standards, investing in infrastructure, simplifying the tax code while reducing taxes for all economic classes, and imposing tariffs on imports by companies that offshore jobs. During the campaign, he also advocated a largely non-interventionist approach to foreign policy while increasing military spending, extreme vetting or banning immigrants from Muslim-majority countries to pre-empt domestic Islamic terrorism, and aggressive military action against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant. During the campaign Trump repeatedly called NATO "obsolete". His political positions have been described as populist, and some of his views cross party lines. For example, his economic campaign plan calls for large reductions in income taxes and deregulation, consistent with Republican Party policies, along with significant infrastructure investment, usually considered a Democratic Party policy. According to political writer Jack Shafer, Trump may be a "fairly conventional American populist when it comes to his policy views", but he attracts free media attention, sometimes by making outrageous comments.
The midland hillocks of northern Kerala have its own characteristic floral composition supporting scrub jungles and cashew plantations on the hill slopes and grasslands and associated aquatic and semi-aquatic plants on the hilltops. Even though these hills are exposed directly to the sunlight and wind, they harbour rich species diversity. Recent plant explorations revealed more additions to the known plant species of the area some of which turned out to be new to science, and endemic to the locality. The vegetation of the hillocks may be classified mainly into grasslands and scrub jungles. The grasslands can again be categorised into wet phase and dry phase grasslands based on the seasons. Altogether 512 plant species have been recorded from Madayipara.

Altogether 512 plant species have been recorded from Madayipara. Grasslands of Kerala have been classified into two types i.e., Low elevation grasslands and high elevation grasslands. The grasslands on the laterite hills of north Malabar are classified under low elevation dry grasslands, characterised by remarkable diversity. This type of natural grassland is the characteristic feature of the laterite hills of Kozhikode, Kannur, Kasaragod districts and the lower parts of Wayanad district. These grasslands are highly seasonal and interspersed with other herbaceous plants and scrub jungles. A total 55 species of grasses are recorded from Madayipara hills, many more remaining to be fully identified. The common grass species are the "Eragrostis uniloides", "Ischaemum indicum", "Heteropogon contortus", "Pennisetum polystachyon", "Cynodon dactylon" and species belonging to the genera "Arundinella", "Dimeria", "Panicum", "Themeda", etc. Species of "Arundinella" form the commonest grasses during the months of October and November.

She says they dated for a month, but Liam shows a memory of her saying that she dated "Mr. Marrakesh" for a week. The discussion becomes heated, Ffion referencing Liam's former obsession over another man Dan, and Liam calling Ffion a bitch. Liam apologises and the pair have sex while watching memories of their past sexual encounters. Afterwards, Liam goes downstairs and drinks copiously while watching re-does of the dinner party. When Gina awakens, he asks for her opinion on the memories. Embarrassed, Ffion gets Gina to leave. Liam interrogates Ffion further. She now says that her relationship with Jonas lasted six months. Liam drives to Jonas' house—ignoring his car's warnings that drunkenness invalidates his insurance. Jonas is unhappy to see him. Acting aggressively, Liam refuses to leave and drinks further, hitting Jonas in a tussle. Hallam calls the police. Liam wakes in his car, which crashed into a tree, and replays his memories. Assaulting Jonas, he made him delete his recorded memories of Ffion. Liam spots a memory of Jonas looking at Ffion in bed. He asks Ffion about it. She lies at every step until the full story is revealed: after Liam left home for several days over an argument about Dan, Ffion had unprotected drunken sex with Jonas around the time Jody was conceived. Violently, Liam demands she plays the memory, and she does. Later, in an empty house, Liam re-watches memories of Ffion and Jody. He uses a razor blade and tweezers to remove his grain. The executive producers Charlie Brooker and Annabel Jones began work on "Black Mirror" in 2010, having previously worked together on other television programmes. The programme was commissioned for three hour-long episodes by Channel 4, taking its budget from the comedy department. Brooker's production company Zeppotron produced the show for Endemol. "The Entire History of You" was the third episode to air, on 18 December 2011. "The Entire History of You" was written by Jesse Armstrong, making it the only episode of the first series to not feature a writing credit for creator and showrunner Charlie Brooker. Executive producer Annabel Jones said that they were looking for a satirical writer whose stories "still have meat". Armstrong was a sitcom writer, best known for co-creating "Peep Show", which uses point-of-view shots, and had met Brooker several times previously.
Rhamnaceae Rhamnaceae is a large family of flowering plants, mostly trees, shrubs, and some vines, commonly called the buckthorn family. Rhamnaceae is included in the order Rosales. The family contains about 55 genera and 950 species. The Rhamnaceae have a worldwide distribution, but are more common in the subtropical and tropical regions. The earliest fossil evidence of Rhamnaceae is from the Late Cretaceous. Fossil flowers have been collected from the Upper Cretaceous of Mexico and the Paleocene of Argentina. Leaves of family Rhamnaceae members are simple, i.e., the leaf blades are not divided into smaller leaflets. Leaves can be either alternate and spiraling, or opposite. Stipules are present. These leaves are modified into spines in many genera, in some (e.g. "Paliurus spina-christi" and "Colletia cruciata") spectacularly so. "Colletia" stands out by having two axillary buds instead of one, one developing into a thorn, the other one into a shoot. The flowers are radially symmetrical. There are 5 (sometimes 4) separate sepals and 5 (sometimes 4 or none) separate petals. The petals may be white, yellowish, greenish, pink or blue, and are small and inconspicuous in most genera, though in some (e.g. "Ceanothus") the dense clusters of flowers are conspicuous. The 5 or 4 stamens are opposite the petals. The ovary is superior, with 2 or 3 ovules (or one by abortion). The fruits are mostly berries, fleshy drupes, or nuts. Some are adapted to wind carriage, but most are dispersed by mammals and birds. Chinese jujube is the fruit of the jujube tree ("Ziziphus zizyphus") and is a major fruit in China. The American genus "Ceanothus", which has several showy ornamental species, has nitrogen-fixing root nodules. Economic uses of the Rhamnaceae are chiefly as ornamental plants and as the source of many brilliant green and yellow dyes. The wood of "Rhamnus" was also the most favoured species to make charcoal for use in gunpowder before the development of modern propellants. Modern molecular phylogenetics recommend the following clade-based classification of Rhamnaceae:
The temperature remains fairly steady year round, averaging 25°C. This fluctuates slightly with the seasons. The long, rainy season is the coldest time of year, and the long dry season is the warmest. Humidity is high year round. Numerous rivers run through the South Cameroon Plateau, particularly in the southeast. These bodies of water drain into both the Atlantic Ocean and the Congo River basin. The rivers south of the Sanaga follow an equatorial regime; that is, they reach a high water point during the rainy seasons and a low point during the dry seasons. There, rivers such as the Dja, Boumba, and Sangha have carved out valleys. The rivers flow slowly and experience seasonal flooding during the rainy season. The Sanaga and rivers north of it follow a complex, or mixed, Sudano-Guinea regime because the territory they drain lies in both tropical and equatorial climate zones. This means that upstream, they follow a tropical regime, with high water during the long rainy season and low water during the long dry season. However, further south, they receive constant rainfall and flow steadily. Dense vegetation covers the plateau, especially in the south. This includes vast tracts of rainforest, which grows in three or four strata. The tallest trees are straight with buttress roots and stand about 40 m tall. Below these stand thinner, shorter trees with large concentrations of leaves at their tops. The bottom layer is made up of undergrowth of saplings and grasses, although this layer is thin when the larger trees grow close together and block the sunlight. Tree species include azobé, bubinga, ebony, iroko, mahogany, and obeche. This primary rainforest exists in the plateau's south and east. Where human activities have affected the forest, for farming, timber, pasture, and urban growth, secondary growth has taken over as the forest has recovered. This is evident around Yaoundé. Forest gradually gives way to Guinean savanna to the north. This consists of vast grasslands punctuated by trees. The savanna has increased as human activities have cut back the forest through activities such as burning. The plateau's rainforests house large numbers of animal species. These include birds, monkeys, and snakes. Others are elephants, chimpanzees, and many rodents.
If the input samples arrive row by row, we need sufficient storage to store formula_49 rows of the input sequence. If the input is available column by column instead, we need to store formula_46 columns of the input. A zero phase filter with a real impulse response satisfies formula_68 = formula_69, which means that each sample can be paired with another of identical value. In this case we can use the arithmetic distributive law to interchange some of the multiplications and additions, to reduce the number of multiplications necessary to implement the filter, but the number of multiplications is still proportional to the filter order. Specifically, if the region of support for the filter is assumed to be rectangular and centered at the origin, we have formula_70 formula_71 Using the above equation to implement an FIR filter requires roughly one-half the number of multiplications of an implementation, although both implementations require the same number of additions and the same amount of storage. If the impulse response of an FIR filter possess other symmetries, they can be exploited in a similar fashion to reduce further the number of required multiplications. The FIR filter can also be implemented by means of the Discrete Fourier transform (DFT). This can be particularly appealing for high-order filters because the various Fast Fourier transform algorithms permit the efficient evaluation of the DFT. The general form of DFT for multidimensional signals can be seen below, where formula_72 is periodicity matrix, formula_73 is the multidimensional signal in the space domain, formula_74 is the DFT of formula_73 in frequency domain, formula_76 is a region containing \|formula_77\| samples in formula_78 domain, and formula_79 is a region containing \|formula_80\| (formula_81) frequency samples. formula_82 Let formula_83 be the linear convolution of a finite-extent sequence formula_84 with the impulse response formula_85 of an FIR filter. formula_86 On computing Fourier Transform of both sides of this expression, we get formula_87formula_88 There are many possible definitions of the M-D discrete Fourier transform, and that all of these correspond to sets of samples of the M-D Fourier transform; these DFT's can be used to perform convolutions as long their assumed region of support contains the support for formula_83. Let us assume that formula_90 is sampled on a formula_46xformula_49x...xformula_52 rectangular lattice of samples, and let formula_94 Therefore, formula_95formula_96.
Aśvaka The Aśvaka (Sanskrit: अश्वक), also known as the Ashvakan, Aśvakayana, or Asvayana and sometimes Latinised as Assacenii, Assacani, or Aspasioi, were a people who lived in what is now eastern Afghanistan and the Peshawar Valley in present-day Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. The region in which they lived was also called "Aśvaka". According to some scholars, the name "Aśvakan" or "Aspasioi" is preserved in the modern ethnonym "Afghan" (historically used for Pashtuns; also used in "Afghanistan"), and the tribal name "Esapzai" (whose Arabized form is "Yusufzai"). The Sanskrit term "aśva", Avestan "aspa", and Prakrit "assa" means horse. The name "Aśvaka"/"Aśvakan" or "Assaka" is derived from the Sanskrit "Aśva" or Prakrit "Assa" and it denotes someone connected with the horses, hence a horseman, or a cavalryman or horse breeder. The Aśvakas were especially engaged in the occupation of breeding, raising and training war horses, as also in providing expert cavalry services. The name of the "Aśvakan" or "Assakan" has been preserved in that of the modern "Afghān". According to philologist J.W. McCrindle, the name "Aśvaka" is also "distinctly preserved" in the name of the "Esapzai" (or "Yusufzai") tribe of Pashtuns. McCrindle noted: "The name of the "Aśvaka" indicates that their country was renowned in primitive times, as it is at the present day, for its superior breed of horses. The fact that the Greeks translated their name into "Hippasioi" (from "ἵππος", a horse) shows that they must have been aware of its etymological signification." Ancient Greek historians who documented the exploits of Alexander the Great refer to the Aspasioi and Assakenoi (Ἀσσακηνοί) tribes among his opponents.
Autodromo Nazionale di Monza The Autodromo Nazionale di Monza is a historic race track near the city of Monza, north of Milan, in Italy. Built in 1922, it is the world's third purpose-built motor racing circuit after those of Brooklands and Indianapolis. The circuit's biggest event is the Formula One Italian Grand Prix. Except for in 1980, the race has been hosted there since the series' inception. Built in the Royal Villa of Monza park in a woodland setting, the site has three tracks – the Grand Prix track, the Junior track, and a high speed oval track with steep bankings which has been unused for many decades and has been decaying for years until restorations in the 2010s. The major features of the main Grand Prix track include the "Curva Grande", the "Curva di Lesmo", the "Variante Ascari" and the "Curva Parabolica". The high speed curve, Curva Grande, is located after the "Variante del Rettifilo" which is located at the end of the front straight or "Rettifilo Tribune", and is usually taken flat out by Formula One cars. Drivers are on full throttle for most of the lap due to its long straights and fast corners, and is usually the scenario in which the open-wheeled Formula One cars show the raw speed of which they are capable: during the mid-2000s V10 engine formula, although in 2012 with the 2.4L V8 engines, top speeds in Formula One rarely reached over ; the 1.6L turbocharged hybrid V6 engine, reduced-downforce formula of 2014 displayed top speeds of up to . The circuit is generally flat, but has a gradual gradient from the second Lesmos to the Variante Ascari. Due to the low aerodynamic profile needed, with its resulting low downforce, the grip is very low; understeer is a more serious issue than at other circuits; however, the opposite effect, oversteer, is also present in the second sector, requiring the use of a very distinctive opposite lock technique. Since both maximum power and minimal drag are keys for speed on the straights, only competitors with enough power or aerodynamic efficiency at their disposal are able to challenge for the top places. In addition to Formula One, the circuit previously hosted the 1000 km Monza, and endurance sports car race held as part of the World Sportscar Championship and the Le Mans Series.
Menemerus guttatus Menemerus guttatus is a jumping spider species in the genus "Menemerus" that lives in Morocco. It was first described by Wanda Wesołowska in 1999. It is related to "Menemerus animatus", "Menemerus davidi" and "Menemerus modestus". The species name derives from the Latin for spotted, .
Infundibulum concavum Infundibulum concavum is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Trochidae, the top snails. The height of the shell varies between 35 mm and 40 mm, its diameter between 45 mm and 47 mm. The false-umbilicate shell has a regularly conic shape. It is concave below. Its color is greenish and roseus, under a dull grayish-green cuticle. The outlines of the spire is nearly rectilinear. The 7 to 8 whorls are planulate, very obliquely striate, radiately corrugated, and covered with a very minute secondary sculpture of radiating, fine, close wrinkles. The body whorl is acutely carinated at the periphery. The base of the shell is concave, concentrically lirate, the lirae about 6 to 8 in number, granose in the young, nearlysmooth in the adult. The aperture is very oblique, covering half the base. The outer lip is very prosocline and crenulated by the folds of the outside. The basal margin is straight, thin, and simple. The columella is oblique, with a strong fold above, projecting into the aperture with a very deep insertion. The parietal wall is lirate. The umbilical tract is white or yellowish, spirally costate in young, smooth in fully adult specimens. This is a very distinct form, with an aperture so oblique as to resemble a "Calyptraea" Lamarck, 1799 This species occurs in the Indian Ocean off Madagascar and off the Mascarene Basin.
The southern bastion facing the sea was subsequently removed by the British, in order to grant access to the town along the ocean foreshore. During the British occupation, the Courts Complex (including the Magistrate Court and the High Court), Rest House and the Matara Police Station were constructed within the fort area. The majority of walawwas or mansions that belonged to Sri Lankan aristocratic families within the fort area are now utilised for other purposes, such as commercial offices, guesthouses and temples, while others have been let to fall into ruin.. In 1817 the British established a mission school, today the President's College. In 1883 the British built a high clock tower atop the remaining rampart. The rampart was declared a protected monument under the Antiquities Ordinance No 9 of 1940 section 33. The gate and walls of the main fort were restored in 1985-86 by a Dutch firm, Ballast Nedam. Matara fort is currently the administration centre for the entire Matara District, with the offices of the District Secretariat, Divisional Secretariat, Courts of Law and numerous other state offices.
Pope Pius XII concludes his letter with his Apostolic Blessing. Warstiens Warstiens is a small village in Leeuwarden municipality in the province of Friesland, the Netherlands. It had a population of around 35 in January 2017. Before 2014, Warstiens was part of Boarnsterhim municipality and before 1984 it belonged to Idaarderadeel. Richard Driscoll Richard Driscoll (born 14 June 1951) is a British screenwriter, film producer, actor and film director. Driscoll was born in Cornwall, and uses the professional name Steven Craine, to avoid confusion with Richard Driscoll, another British actor. In June 2013 he was found guilty of a £1.5 million tax fraud involving inflating the values of invoices for projects including "Eldorado", which starred Daryl Hannah, David Carradine and Michael Madsen. Saddle River String Band Saddle River String Band is a Canadian bluegrass quartet, with influences of blues and folk from Summerside, Prince Edward Island, Canada. Their sound derives from their guitar/banjo/mandolin/double bass set up (sometimes with kazoo, harmonica or ukulele) and from their insistence on performing into a single condenser microphone like earlier bluegrass & folk acts. Saddle River began as a Summerside, Prince Edward Island-area group, getting their name from the Canadian film "Road to Saddle River". Playing mostly for fun, the group explored the traditions of old-time country, blues, ragtime and bluegrass. Their enthusiasm carried over to their audiences, and the group began to take on a life of its own. The original line-up from 2003-2006 included James Phillips (mandolin, guitar), Troy McArthur (banjo), Catherine MacLellan (guitar) and Mike Dixon (guitar, kazoo). Summerside bassist Tom DesRoches replaced MacLellan in 2006. Saddle River SB's distinctive sound have made them a distinct act in the Canadian East Coast folk and bluegrass scene. Where most Bluegrass bands show a marked influence from commercial and traditional bluegrass and country music recordings and culture from the last 80 years, Saddle River's gumbo of North Americana folk music is hinged particularly on pre-war blues and old-time music styles. The songs of Charlie Patton, Lead Belly, Tampa Red, Son House, and Robert Johnson fill out the band's repertoire beside country, old-time and bluegrass standards and original tunes that range from contemporary to traditional takes on classic material.
Heidi Caldart Heidi Caldart (born 19 October 1983) is an Italian ice hockey player. She competed in the women's tournament at the 2006 Winter Olympics.
For ten hours on 12 June all the German positions between Hill 60 and Sanctuary Wood were shelled unremittingly. Particular attention was given to the Canadian Corps flanks, from which enfilade machine-gun fire might be expected. The following morning, the Germans were subjected to an additional 45 minutes of heavy artillery bombardment, before the assaulting troops advanced behind a generated smoke screen. The Germans are believed to have been taken largely by surprise as they offered little resistance and the Canadians were able to take approximately 200 prisoners. With the exception of the trenches at Hooge, the Germans fell back to their original lines and in a little over an hour the assault was over. On 14 June, the Germans launched two counterattacks which were repulsed, after which they advanced their trench to within of the Canadians but made no further assaults. The Canadian Corps remained in the Ypres Salient in a stationary yet aggressive status until the beginning of September when the corps was transferred to the Somme. In the aftermath of the battle and in the wake of the death of Major-General M.S. Mercer, Canadian Corps commander Julian Byng was forced to address the politically sensitive topic of appointing a new 3rd Canadian Division commander. Canadian Minister of Militia and Defence Sam Hughes telegraphed Byng and insisted that his son, 1st Canadian Brigade commander Brigadier-General Garnet Hughes, be given command of the 3rd Canadian Division. To the fury of the minister, Byng instead promoted 2nd Canadian Brigade commander Brigadier-General Louis Lipsett, a highly regarded pre-war British regular, to the post. The minister protested and confronted Byng in August 1916 but he did not relent, insisting that "he had nothing against Garnet Hughes there was simply a better man for the post". The change in command between Lieutenant-General Edwin Alderson and Julian Byng was also used as an opportunity to make additional changes. Much to the displeasure of Minister Hughes and delight of the Canadian troops, the unreliable Canadian Ross Rifle began to be replaced with the British Lee–Enfield and the Colt machine gun with the Vickers and Lewis machine guns. The German 26th Division lost killed, wounded or missing, the 27th Division and Reserve Regiment 11 had and the 117th Division had Canadian Corps casualties from 2 to 14 June were For the Canadian Corps, participation in the Battle of Mount Sorrel is commemorated with the Hill 62 (Sanctuary Wood) Memorial. The nearby Sanctuary Wood Museum Hill 62 contains a preserved/simulated section of front line trenches occupied by the British and Canadians between 1916 and 1917.
