It was the last single released from Parlophone and all subsequent releases, starting with "Hey Jude" in August 1968 were released on their own label, Apple Records. It topped the charts in Australia, Austria, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Sweden, Switzerland and the United States. |
972809 | 693482 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=972809 | Gun laws of Australia | Gun laws in Australia are mainly handled by the Australian states and territories. Any guns that are imported into the country are limited by the federal government. In the 1980s several mass shootings caused the government to pass tighter gun laws within all states.
Gun laws were largely made the same across the states and territories in 1996. This was done through two government sponsored gun buybacks and people willingly giving up their guns following the Port Arthur Massacre in Tasmania. These actions were largely a success, as more than a million guns were collected and destroyed, almost a third of the nation's guns.
Anyone that wants to have a gun in Australia must have a reason to do so which does not include self-defense. They must also have a firearms license and must not be a "prohibited person". All guns have to be registered by a serial number to the owner.
In late 2023, the National Cabinet of Australia decided to implement a national firearms registry within four years. |

It was proposed first in 2007 by an American professor Jasbir K. Puar. It describes an adaptation of nationalist ideology, where it also considers LGBT rights (such as same-sex marriage) as part of what makes a nation great. Because of that, it also sees outside groups (such as immigrants, especially Muslims) as a threat to these rights and to the nation. Puar, as someone who is against homonationalism, thinks that this ideology is used mostly to attack immigrants, while at the same time ignoring issues that LGBT people still face in Western countries. |

The nebula contains many proto stars that are protected by dark discs of gas. It also contains young stars wrapped in expanding "cocoons" or expanding gases surrounding these small stars. The nebula is also known as the Lobster Nebula. It was given the name War and Peace Nebula by the Midcourse Space Experiment scientists because of its look. In infrared images the bright, western part looks like a dove and the eastern part looks like a skull. Anime fans tried to get NASA to rename it as the Madokami nebula because it was like a character from the "Madokami" anime, The name was not changed.
Distance.
The nebula is about 5,500 light years from Earth.
Associated open clusters.
Pismis 24.
This nebula includes the open cluster Pismis 24. There are many massive stars in this cluster. One of the brightest stars in the cluster i, Pismis 24-1, It was thought to be the most massive star on record. The star measures almost 300 solar masses. It was later learned that it was a multiple system of at least three stars. These three stars are each near 100 solar masses. This makes them among the more massive stars on record.
G353.2+0.7.
The young stellar cluster G353.2+0.7 lies at the east of Pismis 24. It was revealed by a Chandra X-ray image showing about 800 stars.
G353.1+0.6.
The young stellar cluster G353.1+0.6 lies at the southeast of Pismis 24. It has about 800 stars that were detected by X-ray. The region includes many O-type stars, including [BDSB2003] 10. |

Impact.
It threw more than 7 km3 of volcanic rock into the atmosphere. This would have caused a volcanic winter, cooling temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere for many years afterwards.
Claims.
Some claim that an eighteen-year span of global cooling that is recorded in Irish bog oaks can be blamed on Hekla-3.
Some Egyptologists have blamed Hekla-3 for famines under Ramesses III during the wider Bronze Age collapse. |

972926 | 1391867 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=972926 | Raider Squadrons | The Raider Command also known as Rangers, National Guard Special Forces is a Special Forces and Special Operations Force within the Cypriot National Guard. It is based in Larnaca, Cyprus.
Mission.
The main mission is guerrilla warfighting. After its creation in the 1960s, it began training in the Troodos Mountains. It began operations against Turkish armed people (Mainly TMT) and elements of Turkish special forces which were operating on the island. Until the invasion in 1974, this was its most important mission. Since then, the unit has changed to fit the condition of the geostrategic location of Cyprus. The modern threats facing the country include the war on terror and the threat created by Turkey. Today LOKs missions can be from Mountain/ Border Patrols, to Combat Search and Rescue. It can do Direct Action missions and paratrooping operations. It also focuses in hostage Rescue and fighting in close range to the enemy.
History.
Insignia/Uniform.
All members wear the unit written sign/symbol showing a winged sword, which shows of the "deadly, silent and fast" nature of special forces operations. A scroll runs across the sword and wings with the saying "Who Dares Wins", a message of thanks to the Free Greek Special Forces that served with the 1st Special Air Service during World War II. The unit flash is marked with Raider Forces.
All Raiders wear the green beret with the Greek national emblem on the left.
Crises of the 1960s.
Immediately after its beginning in 1964, the Commando Battalions were put into action to fight against both Turkish terrorist organisations and the Turkish Armed Forces. It played an important role in both the Battles of Tylliria which happened in August 1964 and in Kofinou in 1967.
In the Battle of Tillyria, LOK was responsible for clearing villages and taking on any Turkish resistance in the area. It lost its first 3 Commandos who were killed in the fighting.
During Operation Kofinou, LOKs job was to at first clear the hills of any Turkish fighters. It was later given the job of clearing the village of any resistance left in the area. For this operation, both the 31st and the 32nd Commando Battalions took part whilst also helping the armored division and Cyprus Police. 1 Commando was killed during the successful operation.
1970s.
Turkish invasion of Cyprus.
Throughout the Turkish invasion, LOK played a role in preventing the Turkish military from moving any further. It defended the Nicosia International Airport taking key points such as areas of the Pentadaktylos mountains. It cut off key routes such as those seen in Operation Lavida.
In the first phase of the invasion, the Raiders Command put into plan Operation Lavida, which was a plan to cut off/disturb the Kyrenia-Kionelli enclave from getting more support from the invading army. It was a nighttime operation beginning at about 11PM and was planned into the following:
Egyptian Raid on Larnaka Airport.
In the late 1970s, after the murder of an Egyptian, Yusuf Sibai, the PFLPs hijacked a Cyprus Airways DC-8. The task of the Commandos units was to (if necessary) take out the hijackers. They ended up having to take on members of Egyptian Special Forces who tried doing a rescue operation, without authorisation from the Cypriot Government. The Commandos of the 32nd Commando Battalion successfully stopped the Egyptian attack.
Joining and Training in Cypriot Army Special Forces.
Training at LOK.
In the Cypriot Army Special Forces, they train mostly like their brothers in Greece (As they refer to as their mother unit, LOK). Candidates will do a few weeks of physical trainings and then go on to their further training which includes survival and evasion, Combat Diving, Paratrooping and climbing.

972942 | 640235 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=972942 | Scam baiting | Scam baiting is when a person online, called a scambaiter, pretends to be a person who is vulnerable to a specific scam and wastes a scammer's time and resources.
Method.
Internet scams come in many forms, and so scam baiting comes in many forms too. For written scams (scam emails), the scambaiter usually answers the scam email using a temporary ("throwaway") email account, pretending to fall for the scam. This makes the scammer vulnerable to be tricked, since the scammer may do lots of things in order to scam the scambaiter. The scammer may be tricked into answering a very long survey, taking a very long trip, or even downloading a computer virus. Such a virus is often used to take control of the scammer's computer and play pranks on them and expose them.
For scams that are performed over a phone call, Scambaiters may pretend to not be able to hear the scammer. This makes the scammer talk slowly and loudly, wasting their time and making the scammer look silly to anyone in the room. The scambaiter may also put the scammer on hold for a long time (possibly for hours) while pretending to take another call. |

972983 | 9028183 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=972983 | Solvable group | In mathematics, a solvable group or soluble group is a group which has a subnormal series with abelian factors.
Relation with the order of the group.
The Feit-Thompson theorem says that every group of odd order is solvable.
Every finite group of order 60 or greater, every abelian group, and every subgroup of a solvable group is solvable.
Applications.
The definition of solvable groups show why the polynomial equations of degree greater than 5 are (in general) not solvable using finite arithmetic operations (Galois theory). |
972984 | 1471378 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=972984 | Order (group theory) | The order of a group is the cardinality of the group set. |
972986 | 966595 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=972986 | Kernel (algebra) | The kernel of a group homomorphism from "G" to "H" is the subset of the elements from "G" that arrive to the Identity element of "H".
Mathematically: formula_1. Since a group homomorphism preserves identity elements, the identity element of "G" must belong to the kernel subset.
Property.
The homomorphism is injective if and only if its kernel is only the identity elements of "G".
Proof: If "f" were not injective, then the non-injective elements can form a distinct element of its kernel: there would exist formula_2 such that formula_3 and formula_4. Thus formula_5. "f" is a group homomorphism, so inverses and group operations are preserved, giving formula_6; in other words, formula_7, and ker "f" would not be the singleton. Conversely, distinct elements of the kernel violate injectivity directly: if there would exist an element formula_8, then formula_9, thus "f" would not be injective. |

972993 | 314522 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=972993 | Judah (son of Jacob) | Judah is a person from the Book of Genesis. He was the ancestor of the tribe that became the Kingdom of Judah.
Birth.
It is written in the Torah, in the Book of Genesis that Jacob married both Leah and her sister Rachel. He loved Rachel but not Leah. So Leah prayed to the Lord for a son so that she wouldn’t be hated. Then Leah became pregnant and gave birth to a son and she said “now my husband shall love me” and named him Reuben. Then Leah gave birth to a second son and said that the Lord had heard her voice so she named him Simeon. Then Leah gave birth to a third son and said “I have poured my heart unto the Lord” and named him Levi. Then Leah gave birth to a fourth son. She said “this time I will thank the Lord” and she named him Judah.
Family History.
After Judah was born, Rachel came to Jacob and said “give me children otherwise I am dead”. Jacob told her that he couldn’t give her a miracle like that since he was only human. So Rachel told Jacob to marry her servant Bilhah. Bilhah gave birth to two sons named Dan and Naphtali. Leah then told Jacob to marry her servant Zilpah. Zilpah gave birth to two sons named Gad and Asher. Then Leah gave birth to Zebulun and Issachar. Then Leah gave birth to a daughter Dinah and Rachel gave birth to a son Joseph. Later, Rachel died in childbirth and her son was named Benjamin.
Sale of Joseph.
Jacob loved Joseph more than all of his other children. Joseph was born when he was an old man. It took many years for Rachel to be able to give birth. So Jacob gave Joseph a coat with many colours. And Joseph had dreams about his brothers all bowing to him so they became jealous and they took Joseph and threw him in a big hole in the ground and left him to die. But then Judah felt guilty about that. He told his brothers that instead of letting Joseph die, they should take him and sell him as a slave to the Ishmaelites and they did. And when Reuben found out, he was angry with Judah because Reuben was planning to rescue Joseph.
Tamar.
Judah married a woman and had three sons named Er, Onan and Shelah. Er married a woman named Tamar but Er died childless so Judah told Onan to marry Tamar and raise their children to think of themselves as the children of Er to honour his memory. But instead of having children with her, Onan threw his semen on the ground. The Lord killed Onan for this. After Onan died, Judah’s son Shelah was supposed to marry Tamar. Judah didn’t let him do that because he was scared Shelah would also die. So Tamar dressed up as a prostitute and had sex with Judah but asked for his staff and seal to let her know that he would pay. When Judah came back to pay her, not having recognized her as Tamar, she was gone. When the people told Judah that Tamar was pregnant Judah said to burn her for prostitution. Tamar said that the father was the person who owned the staff, seal and cord. Then Judah said “she is indeed more righteous than I am” and said he was the father. So Judah married Tamar and she gave birth to twins named Peretz and Zerach.
Reunion with Joseph.
When there was a famine in Canaan, Judah and his brothers except for Joseph and Benjamin came to Egypt to ask for grain. Joseph was the viceroy. Judah and the others didn’t recognize him. Joseph asked them if they had any other brothers and they told him about Benjamin. Joseph then said they were spies. He jailed Simeon and said that he would only free him if they brought Benjamin to Egypt to prove they were telling the truth. When they told Jacob this, he said “first, I lost Joseph, then I lost Simeon, and now you would have me lose Benjamin!”. Judah still convinced Jacob to let him bring Benjamin to Egypt by making a promise to protect him. And when they made it to Egypt, Joseph freed Simeon and gave the brothers everything they wanted. He framed Benjamin for stealing from him and said he would enslave Benjamin as punishment. So Judah begged Joseph to have mercy on Benjamin and enslave Judah instead. Then all of Judah’s brothers joined in saying the exact same thing. Joseph told them “I am Joseph, your brother”. Judah and his brothers thought that Joseph would want revenge but instead Joseph gave them his forgiveness saying that the Lord had brought him to Egypt to save lives.
Tribe of Judah.
In the Tanakh, Judah’s descendants are a tribe called the Tribe of Judah. In the Book of Exodus, Nacshon is the first person to jump before the splitting of the sea and is from the Tribe of Judah. And when Moses sends twelve spies to Canaan in the Book of Numbers, one for each tribe, Caleb is the spy for Judah. Aside from Joshua he is the only one of them to say nice things about the Promised Land. In the Book of Judges the first Judge Othniel is from the Tribe of Judah. Judah is normally the tribe that leads the Israelites in battle.
Davidic Ancestry.
In the Book of Ruth, Judah’s son Peretz became the ancestor of Boaz. Boaz married Ruth. They had a son Jesse and Jesse became the father of David. In the Books of Samuel, David became King of the tribe of Judah after Saul died. He only became King of Israel after the death of Saul’s son Ishbosheth.
Kingdom of Judah.
After David’s son King Solomon died, his son Rehoboam couldn’t keep the kingdom together so it split into two kingdoms. The one in the north was called the Kingdom of Israel and the one in the south was called Judah. The kingdom of Judah was eventually destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar II who exiled its people.
The Jews.
After the Kingdom of Israel was conquered and destroyed by Assyria, the kingdom of Judah survived under the leadership of Hezekiah.Its people came to be known as the Judahites or the Jews, meaning the people of Judah. And even after the exile to Mesopotamia started, they still called themselves the Jews.
Zerubabel.
In the later books of the Tanakh, a man named Zerubabel, who is a descendant of Judah is important in rebuilding the Temple of Jerusalem.
The Messiah.
Prophecies in the Tanakh and Old Testament say that the Messiah would be a descendant of David, who was descended from Judah, and that he would bring Judah and Israel back from exile.
Christianity.
The New Testament begins the Gospel of Matthew with a family tree. This has Judah become the father of Peretz and Zerach, with Peretz becoming the ancestor of Jesus’s stepfather Joseph. The Gospel of Luke says that the Virgin Mary is also a descendant of David making Judah an ancestor of Jesus. |

973017 | 1388038 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=973017 | Spacecraft propulsion | Spacecraft propulsion is the method that a spacecraft uses to control its movement through outer space. A spacecraft with no means of propelling itself is typically considered derelict.
The problem of propelling a spacecraft has, predictably, existed since spacecraft themselves. Most spacecraft are propelled by rocket engines, which combust an explosive liquid fuel with liquid oxidizer (oxygen in a liquid state) to generate hot gas which expands and propels the spacecraft forward.
Methods.
Many methods of spacecraft propulsion have been developed and practiced. Most work by accelerating a propellant to a very high speed and ejecting it from the spacecraft through a nozzle.
Chemical rocket.
A chemical rocket works by mixing an explosive propellant with liquid oxygen and burning it under pressure. This releases a great amount of heat. It results in a rapidly expanding gas. This gas is then funneled out of the rocket's nozzle (usually a bell shape) and off into space.
Ion thruster.
An ion thruster works by using static electricity or magnetism to accelerate ions (atoms with an electric charge) to very high speeds, and out of the thruster's nozzle. Ion thrusters make very little thrust but are very efficient.
Nuclear thermal rocket.
A nuclear thermal rocket heats a propellant with heat from a nuclear reactor before expelling it through a nozzle. Nuclear thermal rockets are currently experimental, but will have decent thrust and high efficiency once put into practice. |
973018 | 314522 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=973018 | Simeon | Simeon is a person in the Torah and Old Testament. Simeon was the second son of Jacob and Leah and the ancestor of one of the Twelve Tribes of the Israelites.
Birth.
After Leah gave birth to her second son she said that the Lord had heard her voice so she named her son Simeon. She then gave birth to another son and said “I have poured out my heart to the Lord” and named him Levi.
The story of Dinah.
When a prince named Shechem raped Dinah after having kidnapped her, he and his father Hamor wanted Shechem to marry her. So Jacob’s sons told him to tell Hamor to tell the men of Shechem to circumcise themselves. And then they did, so Shechem could marry Dinah. Then Simeon and his brother Levi killed every adult male in Shechem and rescued Dinah. But Jacob was angry with Simeon and Levi since he thought that the Canaanites would kill them all for it. So they asked him “should our sister be treated as a whore”.
Story of Joseph.
Simeon was the one of Joseph’s brothers that he jailed to get the others to bring Benjamin to Egypt.
Land Distribution.
When Jacob died, he told Simeon and Levi that because of the massacre of Shechem they wouldn’t have land of their own as part of their inheritance but would instead be contained by the lands of the other tribes. So the tribe of Simeon had its lands surrounded on all sides by land belonging to the tribe of Judah. |

"Food was cut off from the 13 million inhabitants of Biafra"; Furthermore, "At the height of the war, an estimated 10,000 people (including 6,000 children) died from starvation every day". |
973021 | 314522 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=973021 | Levi | Levi was a person in the Book of Genesis who was a son of Jacob and Leah. Along with his brother Simeon he killed the men of Shechem for the rape of Dinah. Because of that, his father Jacob told him that his tribe would not have his land as part of their inheritance but would live on the land of other tribes.
Children.
Levi had three sons and they were named Gershon, Kehath and Merari.
Moses and Aaron.
Kehath had a son named Amaram. Amaram married a woman named Yocheved and became the father of Miriam, Aaron and Moses. Moses became the prophet to the Israelites and Aaron became the High Priest.
Levites.
While the sons of Aaron and their male descendants became the priests, the rest of Levi’s descendant known as the Levites helped the priests in the sanctuary. Their tribe didn’t get any land of their own because they instead had to be the religious ministers to everyone in the other tribes who had to let the Levites live on their land. |

After Shechem kidnapped her, brought her to his hometown and raped her, he wanted to marry her. So Shechem’s father, a king named Hamor asked Jacob what it would take for Shechem to marry Dinah. Jacob asked his sons what to do about what had happened and they told him to tell Hamor that the daughters of Israel would never marry the men of Shechem unless they agreed to circumcision. Then the men of Shechem actually circumcised themselves. Then Shechem married Dinah. Then three days later, Simeon and Levi, killed all adult males in Shechem as revenge for the rape of Dinah. When Jacob was worried that the Canaanites would kill them for that and was angry with Simeon and Levi because of it, they asked him “shall our sister be treated as a whore.” |

973117 | 935234 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=973117 | Nuclear thermal rocket | A nuclear thermal rocket (abbreviated to NTR) is a type of rocket engine which heats a propellant (usually liquid hydrogen) using a nuclear reactor. This is different from chemical rockets, which burn their propellant to heat it. NTRs have higher exhaust velocities than chemical rockets, high enough to triple a spacecraft's payload capacity (the amount of cargo or astronauts they can carry to their destination).
NTRs have the potential to be very fuel efficient while still providing good thrust, but their thrust-to-weight ratio is very small. A rocket's thrust-to-weight ratio (TWR) is the proportion between the amount of thrust the spacecraft can make and how much the spacecraft weighs. For example, a spacecraft that weighs 100 pounds and can produce 10 pounds of thrust would have a TWR of 1:10. An average chemical rocket has a TWR of about 70:1, but an average NTR has a TWR of 7:1. This means that NTRs have to burn for a long time to get the same acceleration as a chemical rocket. This is balanced by their high fuel efficiency.
NTRs have not been tested in space yet, but a special program named DRACO is going to attempt to do so. |
973118 | 693482 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=973118 | Costa Rica brook frog | The Costa Rica brook frog or red-eyed stream frog ("Duellmanohyla uranochroa") is a frog. It lives in Costa Rica and Panama. Scientists have seen it between 70 and 1740 meters above sea level.
The skin of the frog's back is green in color. The belly and neck are bright yellow. The parts of the legs that face the ground are yellow but less bright. There is a yellow-white stripe from the mouth to the place where the legs meet the body, one on each side. The iris of the eye is bright red. The female frog is bigger than the male frog, and she has bigger eardrums.
This frog moves at night. They go to mountain streams to look for food. During the day, they sit in bromeliad plants. The frogs lay eggs in May and June. The frog's voice sounds like "boop boop boop boop," but different frogs and frogs in different places can sound different. The female frog lays eggs in pools of water with silt on the bottom instead of sand or mud.
Threats.
This frog is in danger of dying out. This is because human beings change the places where it lives. Sometimes even small changes can hurt this frog. Climate change and ultraviolet light can also kill this frog. |
