Mourad Boudjellal (born 5 June 1960) is a French businessman, founder of Soleil Productions comic publishing and sport manager. He was born on 5 June 1960 in Ollioules, near Toulon, on the French Riviera.
Presidency of Toulonnais
In 2006, Boudjellal brought RC Toulonnais, the rugby team of his hometown, to prominence by bringing in big-name players such as Sonny Bill Williams and Tana Umaga, and later others including Steffon Armitage, Matt Giteau, Mathieu Bastareaud, Bakkies Botha and Jonny Wilkinson. This has led British rugby commentator Martin Gillingham to call Toulon a "band of galacticos" (a reference to Real Madrid's galáctico policy).
His tenure saw tremendous commercial success for the club. ESPN Irish rugby journalist Ian Moriarty remarked during the 2012–13 season:« Boudjellal claimed earlier this season that the financial performance of the club meant he no longer needs to put his own cash in. Whatever you think about his penchant for throwing verbal grenades in the media from time to time, his management from a commercial point of view has been impressive. Toulon have increased their turnover by 500% during his tenure, allowing the club to spend right up to the limit of the salary cap. »
His time as a leader of TRUC has been "colourful", due to his oftentimes somewhat impetuous behaviour, and use of coarse language. Most notably, he was sentenced to 130-days ban from Top 14 organizer LNR for the following "imaged" outburst after Toulon lost a match against Clermont-Ferrand in January 2012:« I had my first referee sodomy against Clermont in the semi-finals in 2010. I've just had my second tonight. It's supposed to hurt the first time but it hurts again this time. The images ought to be on YouPorn instead of YouTube. »
Hyères takeover
In February 2021, Boudjellal signed a takeover deal for French fourth division football team Hyères FC. The deal came after failures of long-running attempts to take over Olympique de Marseille and Sporting Club Toulon in 2020.

Hannastown is an unincorporated community and important historical and archaeological site located in Hempfield Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, United States. Although the village is not tracked by the Census Bureau, it has been assigned the ZIP code 15635.
History
The village was founded in 1773 as the seat of the newly created Westmoreland County and was known as "Hanna's Town". It was located along Forbes Road, the main route into the Ohio Country from eastern Pennsylvania, and named for Robert Hanna, an early settler whose tavern also served as Westmoreland County's first courthouse. Hannastown was settled primarily by Irish and Scotch-Irish, though the surrounding area was mostly Pennsylvania Dutch.
On July 13, 1782, in one of the final actions of the American Revolution, the settlement was attacked and destroyed by a British military detachment from Fort Niagara and British-allied American Indians led by Guyasuta. The county government was moved to Newtown, later known as Greensburg. The village was rebuilt, but after Forbes Road was rerouted through Greensburg, the settlement grew little, and eventually, most of it became farmland.
In 1899, the Jamison Coal & Coke Company opened a shaft-entry coal mine at Hannastown. The site (known as No. 2) also had a coke works and nearly 80 company-built houses for employees. The Alexandria branch of the Pennsylvania Railroad served it. Production at the mine peaked in the 1910s when the site employed as many as 635 people. It ceased operations in 1949.
Historic Hanna's Town
In recent decades, what was Hanna's Town in the 1700s has been excavated, extensively restored, and rebuilt. Currently, the Historic Hanna's Town site includes the reconstructed Hanna Tavern/Courthouse, three vintage late 18th-century log houses, a reconstruction of the Revolutionary-era fort and blockhouse, a blacksmith shop, and a wagon shed housing an authentic late 18th century Conestoga wagon. The site is maintained and opened to the public by the Westmoreland County Historical Society and the Westmoreland County Parks and Recreation Department.

Svobodny () was one of 18 s (officially known as Project 7U) built for the Soviet Navy during the late 1930s. Although she began construction as a Project 7 , Svobodny was completed in early 1942 to the modified Project 7U design.
Still incomplete when Operation Barbarossa, the German invasion of the Soviet Union, began in June 1941, she had to be moved twice to prevent her capture by the Germans. Once completed, the destroyer began to transport supplies and troops into besieged Sevastopol and to provide naval gunfire support for the defenders of the city and Soviet troops in the Battle of the Kerch Peninsula. While moored there in early June, Svobodny sank after being struck by German bombs with the loss of 67 crewmen. Her wreck was refloated and scrapped in 1953.
Design and description
Originally built as a Gnevny-class ship, Svobodny and her sister ships were completed to the modified Project 7U design after Joseph Stalin, General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, ordered that the latter be built with their boilers arranged en echelon, instead of linked as in the Gnevnys, so that a ship could still move with one or two boilers disabled.
Like the Gnevnys, the Project 7U destroyers had an overall length of and a beam of , but they had a reduced draft of at deep load. The ships were slightly overweight, displacing at standard load and at deep load. The crew complement of the Storozhevoy class numbered 207 in peacetime, but this increased to 271 in wartime, as more personnel were needed to operate additional equipment. Each ship had a pair of geared steam turbines, each driving one propeller, rated to produce using steam from four water-tube boilers, which the designers expected would exceed the speed of the Project 7s because there was additional steam available. Some fell short of it, although specific figures for most individual ships have not survived. set the surviving top speed for the class in trials at . Variations in fuel oil capacity meant that the range of the Project 7Us varied from at .
The Project 7U-class ships mounted four B-13 guns in two pairs of superfiring single mounts fore and aft of the superstructure. Anti-aircraft defense was provided by a pair of 34-K AA guns in single mounts and three 21-K AA guns, as well as four DK or DShK machine guns. They carried six torpedo tubes in two rotating triple mounts amidships. The ships could also carry a maximum of 58 to 96 mines and 30 depth charges. They were fitted with a set of Mars hydrophones for anti-submarine work, although these were useless at speeds over . Due to her late completion, Svobodny was equipped with Soyuz-7U anti-aircraft fire control, uniquely among the Black Sea Fleet ships of her class.
Construction and career
Svobodny was laid down at Shipyard No. 200 (named after 61 Communards) in Nikolayev with the yard number 1074 on 23 August 1936 as a Gnevny-class destroyer with the name Besshumny. She was relaid down as a Project 7U destroyer in 1938 at Shipyard No. 201 (Sergo Ordzhonikidze) in Sevastopol as yard number 246 and launched on 25 February 1939. The ship was renamed Svobodny on 25 September 1940 and was 83.8% complete when the Germans invaded the Soviet Union on 22 June 1941. To prevent her capture by the advancing German forces, the still-incomplete destroyer was towed to Sevastopol on 9 August without completing mooring trials and then to Poti, Georgia, on 2 November. Svobodny was accepted on 2 January 1942, and joined the Black Sea Fleet a week later.
She began ferrying supplies and personnel into besieged Sevastopol shortly afterwards, in addition to service as a convoy escort. The ship also bombarded German positions with 22 shells from her main guns on 18 January before beginning a brief refit in February. Svobodny resumed her previous duties and bombarded Axis positions on the coast of Feodosia Gulf on the night of 16 March. She fired 90 shells at German troops near Feodosia on 20 March and a total of 82 more shells on 2 and 10 April in support of Soviet troops during the Battle of the Kerch Peninsula. She towed the old destroyer , disabled by an accident, to Tuapse on 22 March. The destroyer fired 106 shells at Axis troops advancing on Sevastopol on 4 April. The ship was refitted again through early May. Resuming transport missions between Sevastopol and Caucasian ports, Svobodny, her sister , and the cruiser ferried the 9th Naval Infantry Brigade from Batumi to Sevastopol between 27 and 28 May. During this sortie, Svobodny claimed to have downed one of the two Heinkel He 111 bombers shot down.
Svobodny departed from Novorossiysk as an escort for the transport Abkhaziya on 9 June, and was attacked by German bombers from II./KG 26 that night, although the two dozen torpedoes dropped by the latter missed. Both ships moored in Severnaya Bay in Sevastopol on the night of 9–10 June, where the destroyer finished unloading ammunition destined for the garrison by 04:30 on 10 June. She then bombarded German positions in the Mekenziev mountains, firing 400 shells, and was soon targeted by German bombers. Initial raids failed to hit the destroyer, but when Soviet smoke screens were lifted at 06:40 after German tanks attacked under their cover she moved to Korabelnaya Bay, where she was moored at the wharf. At 8:00 the German air attacks resumed, this time composed of Junkers Ju 87 dive bombers, whose bombs exploded much closer to Svobodny, inflicting casualties from fragments. About two and a half hours later, her hull was holed by near misses.
At 13:15, the destroyer was attacked from multiple directions by an entire gruppe of Ju 87s, whose bombs scored nine direct hits, which started massive fires that detonated anti-aircraft ammunition. Sixty-seven crewmen were killed and many wounded, with her captain among the latter. The survivors abandoned ship just before her torpedoes and aft magazine exploded. Svobodny sank with a 50° list, with the forward superstructure unsubmerged; the latter burned for three days. One hundred and one survivors were returned to the Caucasus aboard the cruiser three days later. Svobodny was struck from the Soviet Navy on 24 June. The wreck was raised by the Emergency Rescue Service of the Black Sea Fleet and scrapped at the Sevastopol Glavvtorchermet base in Inkerman during early 1953.

Lieutenant General William Home, 8th Earl of Home (1681 – 28 April 1761) was a Scottish peer and the British Governor of Gibraltar between 1757 and 1761. Lord Home was a well-known spendthrift.
Military career
He inherited the title Earl of Home in 1720 on the death of his father, Alexander Home, 7th Earl of Home. He was commissioned into the 2nd Regiment of Dragoon Guards in 1735. Home married wealthy Jamaican-English heiress Elizabeth Lawes for her fortune on Christmas Day 1742. The couple would have no children, and the Earl deserted his wife in February 1743 for unknown reasons, taking a commission as a captain in the 3rd regiment of dragoon guards in July 1743. The couple remained technically married, however, and the Countess of Home went on to become a society figure, entertaining lavishly at her London home, Home House.
Lord Home fought at the Battle of Prestonpans in 1745 under Sir John Cope. Distinguishing service meant that he was given command of the Glasgow volunteer regiment of foot which was given orders to defend Stirling. He did well as most of the Jacobite forces were in England making their way to Derby with Bonnie Prince Charlie.
On 11 August 1750 he became colonel of the 48th (Northamptonshire) Regiment of Foot, transferring on 29 April 1752 to become colonel of the 25th (Edinburgh) Regiment of Foot until his death.
In 1757 he was made Governor of Gibraltar and in 1759 promoted to Lieutenant General.
Death and legacy
He was meant to return to England on 29 April 1761 but he died the day before in Gibraltar. His younger brother Alexander succeeded him as Earl. Despite the separation, his wife Elizabeth retained her title and remained independently wealthy due to her father and first husband until her death in 1784. She was buried in Westminster Abbey.
The UK Government has a painting of Major General William Home in its collection attributed to the British school of painters.

In 1990, Duper became only the second Dolphins player to surpass 7,000 career receiving yards. On July 17, 1993, the Dolphins released Duper, after re-hauling their receiving corps bringing in O.J. McDuffie, Irving Fryar, and Mark Ingram Sr., and letting go of the Marks Brothers.
Duper was also a track star, he won in the finals of the 400-meter relay at the 1981 NCAA track and field championships at Northwestern State University, and from the 1980 Olympic trials finished seventh in the 200-meter dash and reached the semifinals of the 100. he competed in the 100 meters and 200 meters, posting personal bests of 10.21 seconds and 20.77 seconds, respectively.
In 11 NFL seasons, he caught 511 passes for 8,869 yards and 59 touchdowns. In 1994, he also appeared in two games with the Miami Hooters of the Arena Football League.
On November 8, 2013, Duper revealed he had been diagnosed with chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE).

The 2020 Atlanta United FC season was the fourth season of Atlanta United FC's existence, and the twelfth year that a professional soccer club from Atlanta, Georgia competed in the top division of American soccer. Atlanta United played their home games at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Outside of MLS, the team made their second appearance in the CONCACAF Champions League, and were set to participate in the 2020 U.S. Open Cup as defending champions, before the tournament's cancelation due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Following the club's elimination from the MLS is Back Tournament, manager Frank de Boer was fired, with Atlanta United 2 manager Stephen Glass taking over as interim manager for the remainder of the season. The 2020 season was the first time Atlanta United FC finished worse than fourth in the Supporters' Shield table and failed to qualify for the MLS Cup playoffs.

On March 12, 2020, the season entered a month-long suspension due to the COVID-19 pandemic in North America, following the cancellation of several matches. On March 19, the suspension was extended until May 10, and on April 17, the suspension was extended further to June 8. The COVID-19 pandemic caused the first interruption of regular season play since the 2001 MLS season, in which many late regular season games were cancelled due to the September 11 attacks.
On June 10, MLS announced that a bracket format dubbed the "MLS is Back Tournament" would begin July 8 at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Walt Disney World, and end with the final on August 11. The three group stage matches would count towards the regular season standings. Following the tournament, the MLS regular season resumed with a revised schedule, concluding with the playoffs and MLS Cup 2020.

Arbour Square police station was located in Stepney, London. Built in the 1840s by the Metropolitan Police, it became known for holding IRA members and the Kray Twins. It was closed down in 1999 and squatted twice before being redeveloped into apartments.
History
The site on the corner of Aylward Street and East Arbour Street near Arbour Square in Stepney was rented by the Metropolitan Police from the Worshipful Company of Mercers in 1841. A three storey redbrick police station was built, with a court beside it which became Thames Magistrates Court. The land was bought in 1888 for £7,500. The station was upgraded in the 1920s and then sustained wartime damage in 1944 from a V-1 flying bomb. It became the divisional headquarters of H division in 1947, taking over from Leman Street.
When the Social Democratic Federation held a rally in 1885, eight people were arrested and taken to Arbour Square. At the court case the next day, William Morris was arrested and charged with assaulting the police. In the 20th-century, the station became known for holding IRA members and the Kray Twins in its custody block. The building was deemed surplus to requirements in 1999, and was left derelict before being squatted in 2004. After the squatters were evicted in 2005, it remained empty until 2011 when it was again squatted. The station has now been redeveloped into residential apartments.

Thomas Norberg Schulz (12 July 1866 – 28 May 1950) was a Norwegian engineer.
He was born in Trondhjem as a son of attorney Laurentius Andreas Schulz and Christiane Wilhelmine Ulich. He was a brother of educator Carl Schulz. In February 1897 in Strinda he married Gustava Kielland Bachke, a daughter of Anton Sophus Bachke. He was a grandfather of architect Christian Norberg-Schulz, and thus great-grandfather of opera singer Elizabeth Norberg-Schulz. He died in May 1950 in Oslo.
He took exams at Trondhjem Technical School in 1884 and 1885, and graduated from Charlottenburg Technische Hochschule in electrical engineering in 1888. In between he worked at Elektrisk Bureau from 1886 to 1887 and 1889 to 1891. He was a manager of Kristiania Elektrisitetsverk from 1891, having been hired at the age of twenty-five, and was then the chief executive officer from 1908 to 1920. He was the director of electricity in the Norwegian Water Resources and Electricity Agency from 1920 to 1933.
He was a co-founder and first chairman, from 1901 to 1915, of Norske Elektrisitetsverkers Forening and became an honorary member there in 1926. Internationally he was an honorary vice president of the International Council on Large Electric Systems from 1921. He chaired the Norwegian Polytechnic Society from 1915 to 1918, wrote several technical-academical works and was elected to the Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters in 1928. He was also a board member of Freia Chocolade Fabrik from 1904 to 1939 and Statens metalcentral.

Glen Luchford (born 1968) is a British fashion photographer and film director. He lives and works in Venice, California.
Life and work
A self-taught photographer, Brighton-born Luchford left school at 15 and moved to London, where he worked at a hair salon.
He worked as a photographer for The Face magazine at age 20. Luchford first signed with New York based agency Art + Commerce at the age of 24. He was one of the first photographers to collaborate with model Kate Moss. In 1997, he signed exclusively to Prada, and has since shot advertising campaigns for Yves Saint Laurent, Givenchy, Chloé, Lanvin, Calvin Klein, and Gucci. He has collaborated extensively with British artist Jenny Saville with shows at the Gagosian Gallery. His editorial work has been featured in magazines such as The Face, Arena, i-D, and British, French, American, Italian Vogue magazines, Harper's Bazaar, and Self Service Magazine.
Luchford's style is influenced by his love of cinema. His signature look is to work with cinematic lighting, both on location and in studio.
In 2001, Luchford directed the film Here to Where, about a filmmaker wanting to make a film about a man stranded at an airport. Nominated for the Michael Powell award at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, the film is considered to be an inspiration for Steven Spielberg's The Terminal.
In 2009, Luchford joined artist management agency Art Partner.
Luchford collaborated with Alessandro Michele on the re-branding of Gucci after Michele's appointment as the brand's Creative Director in 2015.
He photographed the designer's first campaigns, and created a brand new image of Gucci with Michele. His cinematic approach on the images took Gucci away from the sexualised campaigns of Michele's predecessor Frida Giannini and the Tom Ford era. He photographed Gucci's campaigns until Spring Summer 2020.

The Hotel2Tango (sometimes referred to as Thee Mighty Hotel2Tango and abbreviated H2T) is a 24-track analogue recording studio situated in the Mile End district of Montreal, Quebec. The current facility is the second to bear the name, and was preceded by a similar operation in the same neighborhood until 2007 when the studio changed locations. The majority of recording projects undertaken at the studio are helmed by one of the facility's four partner-engineers: Efrim Menuck and Thierry Amar, both members of Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band and Godspeed You! Black Emperor; Radwan Ghazi Moumneh, member of Jerusalem in My Heart; and Howard Bilerman. The Hotel2Tango is often closely associated with Constellation Records, a Montreal-based record label.
Before becoming a dedicated studio, the original Hotel2Tango acted first as a living space and later as a live performance venue.
Original location (1995–2007)
Future Godspeed You! Black Emperor member Mauro Pezzente and his partner Kiva Stimac first moved into the space that later became the Hotel2Tango in 1995. The loft doubled as a performance space and was dubbed Gallery Quiva, hosting approximately one show per month. However, after less than a year exhaust fumes and odor from the mechanic's garage directly below the loft forced Pezzente and Stimac to vacate the building. Shortly thereafter the lease was taken over by Efrim Menuck, who took the first three letters of the area's postal code, H2T, and used the NATO phonetic alphabet to create the space's new name: Hotel2Tango. Pezzente and Stimac later opened three highly-influential performance spaces on Saint Laurent Boulevard in Montreal: Casa del Popolo, La Sala Rossa, and the now defunct El Salon.
By 1998, the Hotel2Tango had become one of the most popular alternative music venues in the city of Montreal and acted as a hub for a number of projects by members of the local artistic community. At one point the loft acted as a work space for Montreal silk-screeners the Bloodsisters, and as a workshop for a local carpenter. Godspeed You! Black Emperor performed at the Hotel2Tango frequently and used the loft as a practice space along with other groups such as Fly Pan Am and Molasses. Godspeed also recorded the bulk of their first album, F♯A♯∞ in the loft's large main room the previous year. As the band's popularity grew over the next several years, so too did the mystery surrounding its secretive members. Many rumours developed about the group and its de facto home base. At one point it was commonly believed by outsiders that all of the band members were squatting illegally in the loft. Eventually word spread about the shows taking place at the Hotel2Tango and the crowds arriving each evening came to be greater than the facility could handle. Amid numerous thefts by show attendees and a generally out-of-control crowd, shows at the Hotel2Tango became less frequent and eventually stopped completely, effectively passing the torch to a handful of newly opened dedicated concert venues within the city. At that time at least two people still lived within the walls of the Hotel2Tango, including Godspeed bassist Thierry Amar, though he later moved out.
In 2000 Howard Bilerman, then-owner of Mom and Pop Sounds, a small Montreal recording studio near the city's Chinatown, approached Amar and Menuck, who were interested in focusing on establishing a studio in the Hotel2Tango, about combining the trio's equipment to use in a central space. Finding the offer favourable, the group began consolidating their two facilities; building a number of walls within the Hotel2Tango, effectively separating the space into three areas: a control room, a live room and a large common area. Soon after, the three purchased a professional 24-track analogue tape machine, which became the centerpiece of the new Hotel2Tango studio. The studio had a built-in clientele, quickly becoming the studio of choice for most of the Montreal-based artists on the Constellation Records label. For a number of years the studio remained closed to most outsiders, its operators choosing to concentrate mostly on the projects of friends and those groups directly related to Constellation and another Montreal record label, Fancy Recordings, a now-defunct subsidiary of Alien8 Recordings. In recent years, however, the Hotel2Tango has opened its doors to many other bands from Montreal and abroad, launching a promotional website in September 2004.
Relocation
In early 2006 several people involved with Constellation Records and the Hotel2Tango purchased an industrial building two blocks from the site of the original studio. The building had reportedly been abandoned for about a decade and was nearly to be developed into condominiums at the time of the purchase. The building was renovated over the course of a year in order to house a new Hotel2Tango along with Harris Newman's Grey Market Mastering and the Constellation Records headquarters. The transition between the two locations officially took place in early 2007, with operations in the original building ceasing on February 4.
Clientele
Many groups and musicians have recorded at the Hotel2Tango, including Vic Chesnutt, Sam Roberts Band, Arcade Fire, Thalia Zedek, Wolf Parade, Basia Bulat and Godspeed You! Black Emperor among others.

The Cimarrones de Sonora Fútbol Club is a Mexican football club that plays in the Liga de Expansión MX. The club is based in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico.
History
The "Cimarrones de Sonora" were born in 2013, when the "Rays" of Poblado Miguel Alemán FC became the champions of the Third Division of Mexico and thus were promoted to Second División 2. After the ascent, with the goal of reaching the Liga de Ascenso of Mexico, employers and trustees of Hermosillo origin, led by Edmundo Ruiz, acquired the franchise as a whole, since this had an agreement with the Necaxa.
After this happens, the Mexican Football Federation will communicate to employers that the franchise did not have approval to participate in the precinct Miguel Aleman, since it lacked the minimum infrastructure requirements, hospitality, transportation, etc. That's when managers decided to move the franchise to Hermosillo, renaming the club to "Maroons of Sonora" and having as coach Enrique Ferreira.
That was how the team played its first game in the second division at the Águilas Reales de Zacatecas, which ended with the score tied at 0–0. On August 30 they recorded their first victory by defeating 2–1 the Vaqueros de Ameca. As a result of this first tournament, the Apertura 2013, the team finished in 17th position in the overall standings. The next tournament ended again in with the Cimarrones in the 17th position.
In the 2014 Apertura tournament with Angel Monares as coach, the team improved significantly. He finished top of Group 1 of the Premier League and fourth place overall in the second division. Maroons played the final against the Potros UAEM. In the first leg 1–0 Maroons emerged victorious Estadio Hector Espino at full capacity, however, in the second leg they beat the Potros UAEM in Estadio Alberto "Chivo" Córdoba by a score of 2–0 in overtime, finishing as runners-up of the tournament.
In the Clausura 2015 another coaching change was made, and Jorge Humberto Torres was hired. The team finished in fourth place in the overall standings and were eliminated in the semi-finals by Loros de la Universidad de Colima.
Liga de Ascenso
The May 29, 2015, after announcing the expansion of the Liga de Ascenso, it was announced that the team would be promoted, beginning with the Clausura 2015 season, to the league. This marked the highest the Maroons had reached on the Mexican pyramid. The team has since made the quarterfinals of the Ascenso three times, never advancing beyond this round.
Stadium
Cimarrones de Sonora play their home matches at the Estadio Héroe de Nacozari in Hermosillo, Sonora. The stadium capacity is 18,747 people. Its surface is covered by natural grass. The stadium was opened in 1985.

Josep Masriera i Manovens (22 January 1841, in Barcelona – 31 January 1912, in Barcelona) was a Catalan landscape painter, goldsmith and businessman.
Biography
He was born to an artistic family and, together with his brother Francesc, began his training with his father, who was a silversmith. After finishing there, he was sent to study with Lluís Rigalt at the Escola de la Llotja. In 1857, he and his brother were apprenticed to , a Professor there. Later, he studied with Claudi Lorenzale.
He was married in 1864 and eventually had five children, including Lluís Masriera, who also became a well-known painter and goldsmith. Shortly after, he and his brother were in Paris, where they may have worked with Alexandre Cabanel. In 1867, he was back at the Escola for some graduate courses and returned to Paris for the International Exhibition to see the latest trends in jewelry.
In 1869, he was appointed President of the "Guild of Jewellers and Silversmiths" and became Secretary of the liberal arts division of the "Association for the Encouragement of National Production", a protectionist group. In 1873, he was named an Academician at the "Royal Academy of Arts and Natural Sciences".
Between 1882 and 1884, he and Francesc built an elaborate workshop on Bailen Street, modeled after the ancient Temple of Augustus on Mont Tàber. It was designed by Josep Vilaseca i Casanovas. Flanking the entrance were statues of Eduardo Rosales and Marià Fortuny, created by Josep Reynés. The Masriera's combined art collections were kept there and it became a major cultural center, featuring dramatic performances as well as art shows. In 1932, it became the Teatre Studium and was later connected to the adjoining buildings. It is now a residence for the nuns of the "Petita Companyia del Cor Eucarístic de Jesús".
He served on the arts jury at the 1888 Barcelona Universal Exposition and was also an author of some note; publishing books on ornamental design, engraving, chiseling and oriental art as well as biographies of Lluís Rigalt and Claudi Lorenzale. For many years, he and some friends met weekly to create a "magazine" called El Recuerdo. No issues were ever published, but the manuscripts provide an important historical record of the art scene in Barcelona.
In 1915, on the suggestion of his son Lluís, the Reial Acadèmia Catalana de Belles Arts de Sant Jordi created the "Josep Masriera Medal" for young landscape painters. It was awarded until 1962.

The Commission on Scottish Devolution (, ), also referred to as the Calman Commission or the Scottish Parliament Commission or Review, was established by an opposition Labour Party motion passed by the Scottish Parliament on 6 December 2007, with the support of the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats. The governing Scottish National Party opposed the creation of the commission.
Its terms of reference were: "To review the provisions of the Scotland Act 1998 in the light of experience and to recommend any changes to the present constitutional arrangements that would enable the Scottish Parliament to serve the people of Scotland better, improve the financial accountability of the Scottish Parliament and continue to secure the position of Scotland within the United Kingdom."
The Commission held its first full meeting at the Scottish Parliament on 28 April 2008 and met at roughly monthly intervals during its period of work.
It issued a first report on 2 December 2008, and a final report on 15 June 2009. It was accountable to both the Scottish Parliament and the UK Government.
The Commission on Scottish Devolution should not be confused with the Scottish Constitutional Commission, which is an independent think-tank.
Calman Plus (also called devolution plus, Devo Plus or Devo 2.0) has been advocated by senior Scottish Liberal Democrat politicians, as the next step in deepening devolution. Calman Plus should not be confused with full fiscal autonomy, although neither concept has been definitively defined.
Membership
The Commission has 15 members, including nominees of the three Unionist parties, representatives of business, trade unions, academia and community organisations.
Professor Sir Kenneth Calman (convener); Chancellor of the University of Glasgow (Chairman)
Lord Boyd of Duncansby; former Lord Advocate and Labour peer
Rani Dhir; Director, Drumchapel Housing Co-operative
Professor Sir David Edward; retired Judge of the European Court of Justice
Lord Selkirk of Douglas; former Scottish Office Minister, now Conservative peer
Lord Elder; member of the House of Lords (Labour)
Audrey Findlay; former Leader of Aberdeenshire Council (Liberal Democrats)
The Earl of Lindsay; former Scottish Office Minister, now Conservative peer and Chairman of the Scottish Agricultural College
John Loughton; youth activist, former Chairman, Scottish Youth Parliament
Murdoch MacLennan; Chief Executive, Telegraph Media Group
Shonaig Macpherson; Chair of the National Trust for Scotland and of the Scottish Council for Development and Industry
Iain McMillan; Director, CBI Scotland
Mona Siddiqui; Professor of Islamic Studies, University of Glasgow
Matt Smith; Scottish Secretary, UNISON
Lord Wallace of Tankerness; former Deputy First Minister and former leader of the Scottish Liberal Democrats, now Liberal Democrat peer
Task groups
The Commission established five task groups to assist it in its work, which met in between meetings of the full Commission. The task groups and their chairs are:
Principles - Sir Kenneth Calman
Functions - Professor Sir David Edward
Engagement - Murdoch MacLennan
Financial Accountability - Shonaig Macpherson
Inter-Governmental Relations - Jim Wallace
Independent expert group
There is also an independent expert group established to advise the Commission on financial accountability. This is chaired by Professor Anton Muscatelli, Vice-Chancellor and Principal of the University of Glasgow, and includes academics from Scotland, the rest of the UK and overseas. It produced a detailed report for the Commission in November 2008, examining different models for funding sub-national parliaments, and suggesting that a mixture of grant funding, tax devolution and tax assignment was likely to be necessary in a Scottish context. In June 2009, the IEG published further reports on borrowing and on natural resource taxation, plus a response to some of the Commission's consultation questions.
First report
The Commission's first report, released in December 2008 declared that devolution had been a success, while making the case for Scotland's continued place within the United Kingdom. On funding, it endorsed the view of the independent expert group that full fiscal autonomy is incompatible with the continuation of the United Kingdom. The Report launched a second phase of consultation, inviting further evidence on a wide range of questions (encapsulated in an accompanying consultation document) by the end of February 2009.
Final report
The Commission's final report was published on 15 June 2009.
The main conclusions and recommendations are:
that devolution has been a success, and is here to stay
that the Scottish Parliament should have substantially greater control over the raising of the revenues that make up the Scottish budget, primarily through sharing with the UK Parliament responsibility for setting income tax rates (although the number of rates, the differences between them, eligibility and so on should remain wholly UK responsibilities) and through devolution of some smaller taxes (Air Passenger Duty, Landfill Tax, the Aggregates Levy and Stamp Duty Land Tax)
that the UK should reduce income tax rates in Scotland by 10p (on the basic and higher rates), and reduce the block grant by a corresponding amount, thus requiring the Scottish Parliament to make a tax decision (i.e. whether to restore the 10p or to set a Scottish rate that is higher or lower than the rate in the rest of the UK)
that the reduced block grant should continue to be calculated through the Barnett formula in the short term, but that a UK-wide needs assessment should replace it in the longer term
that the Scottish Government should have new borrowing powers to cover capital projects, as well as possibly enhanced access to short-term borrowing
that responsibility for the regulation of airguns, the administration of elections, drink-driving limits and the national speed limit should be devolved
that the regulation of health professions and corporate insolvency, currently largely reserved, should be fully reserved; and that there should be single UK definitions of "charity" and "charitable purposes"
greater involvement of Scottish Ministers in key decisions and appointments relating to UK bodies such as the BBC, the Crown Estate and the Health and Safety Executive
that there should be better inter-parliamentary dialogue and communication, including through removing barriers to joint working of committees, having Scottish Ministers attending UK Parliament committees and UK Ministers attending the Scottish Parliament (including to outline the implications of the annual Queen's Speech), and establishing a joint liaison committee
enhancement of the Joint Ministerial Committee (JMC) structure, including by creation of new sub-committees, and the production of an annual report
development of the existing Sewel Convention, including through entrenchment in Westminster standing orders, Scottish MPs being represented on committees scrutinising Bills that engage the Convention, and better communication between the Parliaments, including on "legislative consent motions" under the Convention
the creation of a new mechanism to enable the Scottish Parliament to legislate on reserved matters with the UK Parliament's consent (by order)
enhanced procedures for Scottish Parliamentary scrutiny of Bills, including splitting the existing Stage 3 into two stages, and creating a presumption that amendments at Stage 3 to introduce substantial new provisions will be referred back to committee
a requirement that anyone introducing a Bill (not just a Minister) needs to state that the Bill is within the Parliament's legislative competence, and give reasons for that view.
Calman Review white paper
Responding to the findings of the review, the UK Government announced on 25 November 2009, that new powers would be devolved to the Scottish Government, notably on how it can raise tax and carry out capital borrowing, and the running of Scottish Parliament elections. These proposals were detailed in a white paper setting out a new Scotland Bill, to become law before the 2015 Holyrood elections. The proposal was criticised by the British Parliament opposition parties for not proposing to implement any changes before the next general election. Scottish Constitution Minister Michael Russell criticised the white paper, calling it "flimsy" and stating that their proposed Referendum (Scotland) Bill, 2010, whose own white paper was to be published five days later, would be "more substantial". According to The Independent, the Calman Review white paper proposals fall short of what would normally be seen as requiring a referendum.
2010 UK coalition government
The United Kingdom Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition government which was elected in 2010 pledged to implement the findings of the Calman Commission and subsequently used them as the basis for the Scotland Act 2012. In 2014 the UK government announced that in 2015 the Scottish Parliament would also be given direct access to capital funds and the ability to issue bonds.

King Street was once the principal business street in Kilmarnock, East Ayrshire, Scotland. King Street runs from the "Cross" over the Kilmarnock Water and on to the junction with Titchfield Street.
History
King Street was opened up in 1804.
Many historic buildings in King Street (including the Town House and the King Street Church) were demolished during the redevelopments in the 1970's to 1980's. These buildings were replaced by modern architecture which stand in their place today. The demolition of the eastern side of King Street was criticised in a report commissioned by East Ayrshire Council for the effect it had on the historical and architectural heritage of the area.

Condado Lagoon () is located in San Juan, Puerto Rico. It is an effluent body of water that flows freely between the Condado and Miramar neighborhoods of Santurce, a barrio of San Juan.
Background
Its tributary stream of water forms part of the San Juan Bay Estuary. An estuary is a coastal area where fresh water from rivers and other inland water sources mixes with salt water from the ocean. The Metropolitan Area of Puerto Rico is intersected by estuarine bodies of water, such as Condado Lagoon, Martín Peña Channel, San José Lagoon and Piñones Lagoon, among others. The Cucharillas Marsh is another part of this urban ecosystem. Condado Lagoon empties into the Atlantic Ocean through El Boquerón, an inlet spanned by the Dos Hermanos Bridge through the San Antonio Creek. It is one of two natural lagoons in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
In late 2020, the Condado Ocean Club Hotel, overlooking the Condado Lagoon and the Atlantic Ocean, opened its doors.

A local franchise authority (LFA) is a United States local government organization that, together with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), regulates cable television service within the local government's area. In some cases the LFA is the state, while in others it might be a city, county, or municipality. The LFA is meant to address cable problems such as service related rates and charges, tier rates, customer service problems, franchise fees, signal quality, and the use of public, educational, and governmental (PEG) channels. When experiencing a problem with your cable television you should first contact the cable company itself, then the local franchise authorities, then the National Citizens Committee for Broadcasting, and finally the chairmen of the House and Senate subcommittees who oversee the FCC. Additional help can be found on the web page of the Federal Communications Commission.
History
The development of the cable television system resulted in a complex system of regulations. Local, state, and federal laws overlapped and caused a variety of issues. Local franchise authorities were accused of having monopolies over the cable systems and creating issues through micromanagement. The complex local, state, and federal regulations have been a topic of discussion for many years. The general opinion seems to have been that the laws which regulate cable television, and the telecommunications industry in general, have been in need of deregulation. Experts boast a number of benefits which would result from this change. Experts began calling for deregulation of these rules as early as 1970s. The problem did not have a quick or easy solution and it was decades until action was taken.
In the 1980s Kiplinger’s Personal Finance published an article which alerted cable customers to their rights as consumers. The 1980s was a time when not all towns had cable television. Previously there had been instances where towns had become stuck in a contract with a bad cable provider. This could be prevented if the town took an active part when a cable company was interested in entering the community. By learning the FCC regulations and the governing entity of their local franchise company, customers had the ability to make demands for their cable agreement which helped to ensure fair service. In return for the rights to offer service in an area, a cable company must provide certain community benefits requested by the LFA. These might include Public, educational, and government access (PEG) cable TV channels, high-speed networks for local agencies and institutions, and/or special rates for seniors, the economically disadvantaged, and the disabled.
By the 1990s the demand for cable technology was so rapidly increasing that the need for reform seemed inevitable. Cable systems in the United States were becoming more of a necessity than a luxury both for individuals and communities as technology became a part of everyday life. By this time there were numerous publications which explored the problems with the cable system. Local franchise companies had control over cable systems which resulted in a sort of monopoly. The local authorities were accused of having priority to access (although there are rebuttals against the validity of this argument). One author made the comparison of allowing the government to only permit one newspaper to be sold on the side of the street; it would result in a lack of competition. This is what was happening in the cable industry, the local franchise authorities had the power to control which cable systems were granted access to their area. The high demand for cable systems suggested a guaranteed profitable business venture. However, the cost of funding to develop a cable system was high and the barriers to entry made it a greater risk than many investors were interested in taking. This resulted in lack of competition which resulted in higher prices.
In 1996 the long-awaited reform came about. The Telecommunications Act of 1996 became the largest and most comprehensive rewrite of telecommunication laws. It was meant to deregulate the system and create a more open market in which competitive prices and better service could be achieved. It granted local franchise authorities the ability to regulate cable service rates which was previously mandated by the FCC. However, the effectiveness of this act in accomplishing those feats has been debated. In the immediate aftermath new problems arose. Some had been predicted and some had not. The sheer number of overhauls caused roadways and sidewalks to be torn up which affected pedestrian and vehicular travel while adding extra expense to the endeavor. Local authorities could no longer dictate who could occupy their property nor how much they should be compensated for this occupancy. Companies were now fighting over who had the rights to physical access in communities. Also, two years later the FCC was still making rules and had, in fact, made more rules than many of the other governmental Departments combined.

Les Thanatonautes (The Thanatonauts) is a 1994 science fiction novel by French writer Bernard Werber. The book deals with the search for afterlife.
Les Thanatonautes is first in a five-part series. Together with L'Empire des anges ("The Empire of Angels", 2000) and Nous les dieux ("Us the Gods", 2004), it makes up the Les Thanatonautes trilogy. Nous les dieux, together with Le souffle des dieux ("The Breath of the Gods", 2005) and Le mystère des dieux ("The Mystery of the Gods", 2007), make up the Nous les dieux trilogy.
The book, which one could classify as philosophic science fiction (with a hint of fantasy), takes readers on a voyage to the last unexplored continent, death. The term thanatonaute is derived from "thanatologie", comes from the Greek god of death Thanatos and nautis (navigateur) and thus signifies navigator of death or explorer of death.
The novel tells the story of a researcher Michael Pinson and his friend Raoul Razorbak who go explore the Ultimate Continent (called New Australia): the continent of death. This adventure takes us across the different zones of the continent of the dead to the famous light. In doing these explorations the thanatonautes voluntarily risk their lives to discover the mysteries of death.
The book is scattered regularly with a number of different sacred texts drawn from mythology, religion, and cosmogony from all over the world to highlight how each of these points of view resemble each other and tell the same story just with different words and symbols.

De Lacy Evans O'Leary (1872–1957) was a British Orientalist who lectured at the University of Bristol and wrote a number of books on the early history of Arabs and Copts.
Personal life
De Lacy Evans O'Leary was born in Devon in 1872, the eldest child of Henry O'Leary (1831–1908), a Mauritius-born Anglo-Irish former captain in the New Zealand militia, and Julia Hornsey (1841–1884). On his father's side, O'Leary was descended from Irish Catholics of Limerick, and included one of the generals in Wellington's Peninsular Campaign. Brought up as a Protestant and educated at Bristol Grammar School, O'Leary converted to Roman Catholicism in about 1888 and began to train for the priesthood at Prior Park College near Bath, before returning to the Church of England in 1890.
He never married, and was an active freemason.
Career
O'Leary studied at the University of London (1891–95) before becoming a minister in the Church of England, and later undertook further studies towards a Master of Arts at Trinity College Dublin (1905). He was awarded second prize in Trinity College’s Elrington Theological Prize (1903) for an essay on the Epistle of St James, and the following year the Elrington Theological Prize itself for the essay "An Examination of the Apostolical Constitutions and of the cognate documents, with special view to those which have recently been made accessible".
O'Leary was special lecturer at the University of Bristol from 1908 until 1957, teaching Aramaic, Syriac, and Hellenistic Greek. He was the first chairman of the Bristol University Convocation, which represents graduates of the university, between 1910 and 1928. During World War I he was Captain-Chaplain of the university's Officer Training Corps and in 1916 served as a chaplain to the British Expeditionary force in Egypt.
O'Leary was made Inspector of Schools in religious knowledge for the Diocese of Bristol and vicar of Christ Church in the poor Barton Hill district of Bristol from 1909 until his retirement in 1946. Despite the large population of his parish, church attendance was poor and declined during his tenure. There was controversy about his curacy of the parish, which led to questions in the House of Lords in 1952 and an appeal to the Privy council. After World War II he retired from his parish and went to live in Weston-super-Mare with his sister, although he continued to visit the university occasionally.
The church was later closed and torn down.
Works
O'Leary published several Coptic liturgical manuscripts. These included:
He wrote books about Christian and Coptic literature. These included:
He also wrote a number of books about Arabic history, including:

Operation Snowcap (1987–1995), launched in the spring of 1987, was a counter-narcotics operation conducted by the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), BORTAC (U.S. Border Patrol Tactical Unit) and military/police forces in nine Latin American countries. Operation Snowcap followed Operation Blast Furnace, a four month operation that started in July 1986, which deployed 160 Army personnel and six Blackhawk helicopters to assist Bolivia in operations against cocaine laboratories in the Beni and Santa Cruz regions of Bolivia. At an annual cost to the DEA of $80 million, and involving approximately 140 agents at its onset, Snowcap was the largest counter-narcotics operation that had been launched in Latin America. The U.S. Department of Defense leased 6 UH-1 Huey helicopters, and provided flight training to Bolivian air force pilots and Special Forces training for UMOPAR and DEA agents. Operation Snowcap recruited U.S. Army infantry officers attending the Army Infantry Officer's advanced course in the late 1980s. Senior lieutenants and captains attending the course were given classified briefings attempting to recruit them from the Army to participate for operations in Bolivia and Peru.
In late 1987, Clandestine Laboratory and Chemical Program Czar, Gene R. Haislip, Deputy Assistant Administrator of DEA and Douglas A. Snyder, frequent Snowcap operative, convinced high level DEA officials that change was needed in the Snowcap program. They successfully lobbied DEA brass, David Westrate, Terry Burke and Chuck Guttenson, for Frank E. White, Chief of DEA Special Training, to become the new head of Snowcap because of his breadth of military experience and no-nonsense law enforcement perspective. The top brass accepted their recommendations. In one incident in a remote jungle location, DEA Operatives White and Snyder, and Navy Seals R. Gonzales and Red Hernandez were cornered by several dozen local campesinos wielding machetes and the team barely escaped harm by boarding an air transport provided by DEAs Addison Air Wing. In a 1988 memo, White, as new head of Snowcap, charged that agents were not being given adequate support for their mission, warning that without immediate changes, "DEA agents are going to agonize along through an excruciating death on an isolated jungle floor." DEA brass supported his request for more U.S. Military special forces assistance to field DEA agents deployed under Snowcap, with the additional deployment of Navy SEALS/medics. However, Frank White never thought the level of support was adequate to protect deployed DEA agents in such remote jungle locations, but trudged forward.
On May 20, 1989, tragedy struck when a US or Peruvian-owned Cessna 208 Caravan that had left Tingo María, in the Peruvian Amazonian highlands, on a DEA coca eradication mission taking place in the context of Operation Snowcap, crashed into Mount Huacranacro, 100 km (62.5 mls) east of Huaral. The nine occupants, six Americans and three Peruvians, were killed. The plane may have suffered an engine failure.
After Operation Just Cause U.S. Army added an additional element of soldiers from an Airborne Unit in Panama to assist in helping with this mission. A small group of soldiers were sent to areas in Colombia and Peru to recon and help target drug facilities. They also acted in supporting roles as security for agents when engaging in their narcotic stings. This unit provided this additional support until mid-1990 when it was deemed that their engagement was overtaxing the unit's other mission in the region.
By the end of 1990, Colombian National Police participating in Operation Snowcap had seized 53 metric tons of cocaine, arrested about 7,000 suspected traffickers, destroyed over 300 processing facilities, and seized over 700,000 gallons of precursor chemicals. Snowcap was successful in temporarily reducing the amount of Colombian cocaine entering the United States, however, it ended up handing control of narco-trafficking from the powerful Medellín and Cali cartels over to the smaller Mexican cartels. According to the SAC who was in charge of Operation Snowcap, Tony Laza, the DEA's "success with Medellín and Cali essentially set the Mexicans up in business, at a time when they were already cash-rich thanks to the budding methamphetamine trade in Southern California."
On 27 August 1994, tragedy struck again when a DEA CASA 212 Aviocar light transport aircraft (reg. N119CA) crashed into a mountain (or at the end of a box canyon) north of Puerto Pizana, in the Amazonian jungle department of San Martín, Peru. The crash reportedly happened while on a flight from Santa Lucia to Pucallpa, in the Huallaga River Valley region, and apparently owed to bad weather and low visibility (rainy and foggy) conditions during a reconnaissance operation. The plane's five occupants, DEA Special Agents Frank S. Wallace, Jay W. Seale, Juan C. Vars, Meredith Thompson, and Frank Fernandez Jr., were killed. This crash, plus a new focus in the Andean counter-narcotics strategy by the newly inaugurated Clinton administration (supported by Congress), and reduced funding by the new DEA administration of Thomas A. Constantine, eventually led to the end of Operation Snowcap in 1995.

The Museu da Imagem e do Som do Rio de Janeiro (in English, Rio de Janeiro Museum of Image and Sound) was inaugurated on September 3, 1965, as part of celebrations of the fourth centenary of the city of Rio de Janeiro. The MIS is a museum of the Secretary of Culture of the state of Rio de Janeiro dedicated to carioca culture.
The institution has launched a pioneering gender audiovisual museum, which would be followed in other Brazilian cities. In addition to having qualified as music and picture documentation center, it was also a cultural center of avant-garde in the 1960s and 1970s, a place of meetings and launching new ideas and behaviors. Currently, the MIS has its administrative headquarters in Lapa and a unit at Praça XV in the same region.
The building of the new headquarters of MIS, in Copacabana was announced in 2009, in the place of the old nightclub Help, an old point of prostitution in the city. The building will also house the Carmen Miranda Museum collection, now located in the Flamengo Park. The inauguration is scheduled for 2018.
History
In addition to the safekeeping and preservation of the collections, the MIS produces its own collection by collecting testimonies for posterity, project conceived in 1966 as a way to legitimize the action of the museum in the cultural milieu of Rio de Janeiro. Currently, the museum has a collection of more than 900 interviews with approximately four thousand hours of recording covering the various segments of culture. The MIS is not restricted to guard remaining objects from the past, but it is up to date with the present and facing the future. Records and preserves the memory by making use of technologies available each season. The museum, which currently has its collections split between two locations – one in Praça XV (Centro) and the other in Lapa – is seen as an important part of Rio’s cultural heritage.
New Museu da Imagem e do Som
The plans for the new MIS are ambitious and building costs are said to be in the region of R$70 million. Designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro, of New York City, the new building is “a reproduction of the famous Copacabana sidewalk folded into a vertical boulevard and will become a new icon in Rio’s cultural scene.”
The new headquarters of the Museum of Image and Sound will celebrate the culture and musical history of Rio de Janeiro throughout its eight floors. The first floor of the building will be dedicated to humor and irreverence Rio, while the second floor will tell the history of music in the city, including samba and choro. The third floor will honor Brazilian television as well as Carmen Miranda, incorporating the entire museum collection dedicated to the singer, currently located at Parque do Flamengo. In other floors, visitors circulate through images of the urban evolution of the city. The museum's basement will house a multipurpose room, and the terrace receive outdoor cinema sessions. The new headquarters of the museum is an achievement of the Government of Rio de Janeiro, through the Secretary of State for Culture, with the support of the Secretary of State for Works/Public Works Company (EMOP), made in partnership with the Roberto Marinho Foundation.
The project has direct investment of the Government of Rio de Janeiro, through its own resources and of the State Law of Cultural Incentive, and financing of the Tourism Development Program (PRODETUR) and Investment Support United (PROINVEST). The project also includes Rede Globo, Itaú and Natura as patrons and sponsored by Vale, IBM, AmBev and Light, the support of the Votorantim Group, NHJ of Brazil and the Ministry of Culture, through the Federal Law of Cultural Incentive.
Collection
The Museum's collection of Image and Sound contains 304,845 documents between discs, scores, photos, letters, texts and videos, and 18,000 records of Radio Nacional, with songs, novels and scripts for programs of the years 30s, 40s and 50s. Also part of the archive, the personal collection of radio journalist Almirante, of the musicians Abel Ferreira and Jacob do Bandolim, of the researchers music Sérgio Cabral and Hermínio Bello de Carvalho, and interpreters of Brazilian popular music, as the sisters Linda and Dircinha Batista, Nara Leão, Elizeth Cardoso and Zeze Gonzaga.

The Antonov An-74 (NATO reporting name: Coaler) is a Soviet/Ukrainian transport aircraft developed by Antonov. It is a variant of the An-72.
The An-72 and An-74 get their nickname, , from the large engine intake ducts, which resemble the oversized ears of the popular Soviet animated character of the same name.
Design and development
The An-74 was initially an upgrade of the An-72 test aircraft, intended to be used in the Arctic and Antarctica; and had the designation An-72A "Arctic". The aircraft's main purpose is to deliver cargo, equipment and personnel over short- and medium-range routes in any climatic conditions ranging from and at any latitude, including the North Pole, and high altitudes. It can operate to and from low grade airstrips such as concrete, pebble, ice and snow aerodromes.
Produced in tandem with the An-72, the An-74 can be fitted with wheel-ski landing gear, de-icing equipment and a number of other upgrades allowing the aircraft to support operations in Arctic or Antarctic environments.
An unusual design feature of the An-74 (as well as An-72) is the use of the Coandă effect to improve STOL performance, utilizing engine exhaust gases blown over the wing's upper surface to boost lift. The powerplant used is the Lotarev D-36 turbofan engine. The An-74 bears some resemblance to the unsuccessful Boeing YC-14, a prototype design from the early 1970s which had also used overwing engines and the Coandă effect.
The rear fuselage of the aircraft has a hinged loading ramp with a rear fairing that slides backwards and up to clear the opening. The An-74 has a payload of 7.5 tons including up to ten passengers in the cargo version, or up to 52 seats in the passenger version; the operating ceiling is and cruising speed is . The aircraft may also be used for highly specialized operations:
pilotage and vessel escort;
establishing and servicing of drifting stations;
research operations in Arctic or Antarctic regions;
visual ice patrol;
fishery reconnaissance.
Operational history
As of January 1, 2006, twenty-three out of thirty aircraft registered in Russia were in operation.
Variants
An-74: Arctic/Antarctic support model with room for five crew, increased fuel capacity, larger radar in bulged nose radome, improved navigation equipment, better de-icing equipment, and can be fitted with wheel-skis landing gear.

An-74MP: Marine Patrol version. Can transport 44 soldiers, 22 paratroops, 16 stretchers with medical staff, or ten tonnes of cargo.
An-74T: Freighter version equipped with an internal winch, roller equipment, and cargo mooring points, can also be fitted with static lines for paratroops or dropping air cargo.
An-74T-100: Cargo version with four crew.
An-74T-200: Cargo version with two crew.
An-74T-200A: Military Transport aircraft

An-74TK-200S: Medevac version of An-74T-200.
An-148: An-74 model designed primarily for civil customers with more fuel-efficient, conventionally mounted engines that trade the STOL capabilities of earlier models for lower operating costs and higher speed. Additional emphasis is placed on improved avionics and passenger comfort features. It was initially designated An-74TK-300, making its first flight in 2004.
An-158: Modification of the An-148.
An-74-400: Proposed stretch model of the An-148 (An-74TK-300) with a fuselage insert to extend its length by 26 ft (8 m) and uprated engines.

The Allan Shipping Line was started in 1819, by Captain Alexander Allan of Saltcoats, Ayrshire, trading and transporting between Scotland and Montreal, a route which quickly became synonymous with the Allan Line. By the 1830s the company had offices in Glasgow, Liverpool and Montreal. All five of Captain Allan's sons were actively involved with the business, but it was his second son, Sir Hugh Allan, who spearheaded the second generation. In 1854, Hugh launched the Montreal Ocean Steamship Company as part of the Allan Line, and two years later ousted Samuel Cunard to take control of the Royal Mail contract between Britain and North America. By the 1880s, the Allan Line was the world's largest privately owned shipping concern.
In 1891, the company took over the State Line (founded 1872) and was often referred to as the Allan & State Line. In 1897, Andrew Allan amalgamated the various branches of the Allan shipping empire under one company, Allan Line Steamship Company Ltd., of Glasgow. The company by then had added offices in Boston and London. In 1917, under Sir Montagu Allan, who represented the third generation of the Allan family, the company was purchased by Canadian Pacific Steamships, and by the following year the Allan name had disappeared from commercial shipping.
Media
The 1970s British television series The Onedin Line (1971-1980) is a complex and veiled take on the Allan Line Family and their steamships.
Notable collisions
In 1891, the Allan Line steamer Carthaginian collided with the York River Line steamer Charlotte in the shipping channel at Baltimore, Maryland. Among those aboard the Carthaginian was the Danish-American composer Asger Hamerik. While both boats were damaged, neither sank.
In 1905, the Allan Line steamer Parisian was involved in a collision with the Albano off of Halifax, Nova Scotia. The owners of the Albano were found by the Exchequer Court of Canada to be fully at fault, according to Reports of Cases Relating to Maritime Law. The case was later appealed to Canada's supreme court.

Gangs of London is an action-adventure open world video game released in 2006 for Sony's PlayStation Portable console. The third installment in the The Getaway franchise following The Getaway (2002) and Black Monday (2004), it was developed by London Studio and published by Sony Computer Entertainment. The player has the choice to play as five different gangs in London, with different ethnicities and outfits.
Gareth Evans and Matt Flannery created a television adaptation of the game starring Joe Cole, Sope Dirisu, and an ensemble cast, which debuted on Sky Atlantic and AMC in April 2020, from which a spin-off graphic novel, Ghosts, was released in December 2022, written by Corin Hardy and Rowan Athale and illustrated by Ferenc Nothof.
Gameplay
During the course of story mode, the player is given a wide variety of objectives. One objective may require entering a nightclub armed with a jackhammer, while another may involve trying to run the enemy off the road, or them trying to run the player off the road. There are also kidnapping missions, stealth missions, and race missions. Once the story mode is complete, a cliffhanger ending ensues. Outside of missions, the player can free roam the game's environment and complete minigames such as taking photos of London landmarks or running over pedestrians. The game also has "bar" style mini-games, accessed from a pub. The four pub games are darts, skittles, pool, and an arcade game, which is similar to Snake.
Premise
At his country estate, Morris Kane, a veteran cockney gangster and leader of his own firm, breeds pigeons in preparation for an upcoming competition. The next morning, he is horrified to find out that all the pigeons have been slaughtered. Kane soon vows to take over the city.
In Westminster, Russian crime lord Vladislav Zakharov is planning to purchase a Fabergé egg to add to his collection. Returning home, Zakharov finds that his mansion is torched. Enraged by the loss of his paintings and silver, he vows to make London suffer.
Mason Grant, leader of the Jamaican yardie gang EC2 Crew, is out on a date with his girlfriend Chantel. She is later assassinated by an unseen sniper while at a cafe with Grant. He vows revenge in response to her death.
Inside a gambling den, two Water Dragon Triads are intimidated by another who will do whatever it takes to win a game of Mahjong. During the game, a bomb goes off; killing the Triads. Triad leader San Chu Yang declares war on the other gangs.
Indian-British gangster Asif Rashid, who leads the Talwar Brothers, learns that his brother has been set up and arrested by armed police (SCO19). Determined to bail his brother, Rashid assembles his gang to take over London.
The Gangs
The player can choose any one out of five playable gangs -
Morris Kane Firm
EC2 Crew
Talwar Brothers
Zakharov Organisation
Water Dragon Triad
Apart from these gangs there are other unplayable gangs which form some parts of the game's storyline:
Steele Associates: A white-collar criminal group run by a criminal businessman named Andy Steele. The gang plays a major part in the storyline. Its territory is located in central London
The North London Albanian Gang
The Globe Road Gang – a gang made up of prostitutes
Rahman's Gang – an Indian-origin gang
The Yakuza gang – it is run by a Japanese gangster named Kanesaka
The Italian Naples Mafia
Reception
The game received "mixed" reviews according to video game review aggregator Metacritic.
Adaptations
Television series
Gareth Evans and Matt Flannery created a television adaptation of the game starring Joe Cole, Sope Dirisu, and an ensemble cast, which debuted on Sky Atlantic and AMC in April 2020, with Dirisu portraying Elliot Carter / Finch, a character loosely based on Frank Carter, and Colm Meaney portraying Finn Wallace, a character loosely based on Andy Steele.
In an interview with Sky News in April 2020, Evans stated that while initially hired to "make a film franchise" of Gangs of London, he had felt like if we were going to do a film franchise, we would have two-thirds of our running time focused purely on our central characters, and then only a third left to explore the side characters that populate that world", and so on deciding that "we wouldn't do justice to the myriad of different diverse cultures and ethnicities that make up the city [I then] pitched it back saying this should be a TV show because you can afford to go off and detour for 10 to 15 minutes and spend time with other characters, and learn about them in more detail."
Graphic novel
In December 2022, a Gangs of London graphic novel, set between the first and second series of the television adaptation and titled A Gangs of London Story: Ghosts, written by Corin Hardy and Rowan Athale and illustrated by Ferenc Nothof, was released digitally to the news aggregator Den of Geek, ahead of a physical release.

thumb|The territory of the municipality of Reggio Calabria and the division and numbering of the districts with Pellaro as 15
Pellaro is the southernmost quarter of the commune of Reggio Calabria, southern Italy. It has approximately 13,000 inhabitants.
The town is located on the 38° latitude, which is shared by the cities of Seoul, Athens, San Francisco and Córdoba. A monument was erected in 1987 to indicate this.
History
The location has been inhabited since the times of Greater Greece, and is surrounded by hills.
The Romans conquered the city in 272 BC. Local forests were used to supply Rome with timber for ships of war, and the port was a strategic location for trade with the East.
In 1908, the earthquake and associated tsunami that hit Reggio Calabria destroyed much of the city and killed over a thousand inhabitants.
In 1927, during the Fascist regime, admiral Giuseppe Genoese Zerbi included Pellaro within the commune of Reggio Calabria.
Economy
Today Pellaro, with its beach, is a popular tourist location. Pellaro is also a windsurfing and kitesurfing location.
The city also produces wine from grapes sourced from local vineyards, reputed to be derived from ancient Greek colonies.

The Negros bleeding-heart pigeon (Gallicolumba keayi) is endemic to the Philippines where it is found on the islands of Negros and Panay. It is critically endangered; continuing rates of forest loss on the two islands where it occurs suggest that it will continue to decline. The population is estimated to be just 50 - 249 mature individuals. The species has an extremely small, severely fragmented population. The bird is listed as an EDGE species under the analysis of the Zoological Society of London.
It is considered one of the Western Visayas Big 5 which includes the Walden's hornbill, Visayan spotted deer, Visayan hornbill and the Visayan warty pig.
Description
Ebird describes it as "A very rare medium-sized ground dove of foothill forest floor on Negros and Panay. Iridescent greenish-blue on the head and sides to the chest, scaled on the upper back, with brownish flight feathers. White underparts narrow from the throat down the chest to the belly. Obvious white crescents mark the wing and sides of the chest. Note the red "bleeding heart" in the center of the chest. Unlikely to be mistaken if seen well. The only other dove likely to flush from the ground would be Asian emerald dove. Song is a short, accelerating series of low notes."
25 cm (10-in) is its total length. Ground-feeder but roosts and nests on bushes or vines; seen in pairs in a flock. Birds with enlarged gonads recorded in April and May and a recent fledgling obtained on May 3.
It has been recorded nesting in March - June with chicks fledging after only 12 days, apparently as an adaptation to the vulnerability of their open and low nests in epiphytic ferns. Nests appear to be regularly predated. The species predominantly feeds on plant material, although there is some potential evidence to suggest that they may also occasionally feed on ground invertebrates.
Habitat and conservation status
The Negros bleeding-heart lives primarily in primary forest up to 1,200 meters above sea level. They are sensitive to habitat disturbance and do not tolerate second growth as well but there are some sparse records..
It is critically endangered with the population estimated to be 50 -249 mature individuals remaining. They are threatened by hunting for food, trapping for the pet trade and habitat loss . Continuing rates of forest loss on the two islands where it occurs suggest that it will continue to decline. By 2007, Negros and Panay had a 3% and 6% remaining forest cover with most of this being higher elevation forest where this bird does not thrive in. Despite already paltry forest cover, deforestation still continues thanks to both legal and illegal logging, conversion into farmland, mining and road development. Trapping and hunting for food and, presumably, for the cage-bird trade constitute other threats.
It was bred for the first time in captivity in 2007 at the Center for Tropical Conservation Studies. As of 2013, the captive population totals 18 individuals, 14 of which have been bred from birds confiscated from the illegal bird trade. Captive breeding is being undertaken by the Talarak Foundation supported by the Philippines Biodiversity Conservation Foundation. There are plans for future reintroductions.
Conservation actions proposed include fieldwork and surveys in areas where they have been reported and other areas with suitable habitats. Provide protection for existing habitats like the Northern Negros Forest reserve. Encourage reforestation activities with an emphasis on native trees. Create education and awareness campaigns to aid in conservation and prevent hunting and the pet trade.

Fay Templeton (December 25, 1865 – October 3, 1939) was an American actress, singer, songwriter, and comedian.
Her parents were John J. Templeton and Alice Van Asse, both of whom were actors/vaudevillians; Fay followed in their footsteps, making her Broadway debut in 1900. Templeton excelled on the legitimate and vaudeville stages for more than half a century. She was a favorite headliner and heroine of popular theater, appearing until 1934. For a time she dated Sam Shubert, of the Shubert family of theatre owners, until his death in a railroad accident.
Some of her notable performances were in H.M.S. Pinafore and Roberta. Her career longevity was attributable not only to her physical appearance, which was of the fashionable robust nature of her time, but her multitude of talents from singing to composing.
Early life and career
Templeton was born on December 25, 1865, in Little Rock, Arkansas, where her parents were starring with the Templeton Opera Company. Her father, John Templeton, was a well-known Southern theatre manager, comedian, and author. Her mother, Helen Alice Vane (aka Alice Van Asse), starred with her husband. At age three, Templeton, dressed as Cupid, sang fairy tale songs between the acts of her father’s plays. Gradually, she was incorporated into the productions as a bit player, and then at age 5, had lines to recite. At age 8, she played Puck in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, making her New York debut at Grand Opera House.
At fifteen, Templeton joined a light opera company, playing in a juvenile version of Gilbert and Sullivan's H.M.S. Pinafore. She also played in The Mascot and Billee Taylor.
On October 7, 1885, Templeton had her formal Broadway debut in a revival of Evangeline. The play ran for 201 performances. In this show, she displayed talent as both a comedian and mimic. She starred in the London premiere of Monte Cristo Jr., an 1886 hit.
After several years on the road playing in various melodramas and musical farces, Templeton was given the title role in Hendrik Hudson, which opened at the 14th Street Theater on August 18, 1890. It was a “trouser role,” one in which an actress appears in male clothing, then a popular feature of operettas. Her role was of a faithless husband. She won accolades singing “The Same Old Thing,” but the show lasted only 16 performances.
By 1890, Templeton had formed her own opera company and starred in various operettas, none of which fared well financially. In 1895, she starred in another trouser role in E.E. Rice’s Excelsior, Jr. at Oscar Hammerstein’s Olympic Theater.
Weber & Fields
In 1896, the comic duo Joe Weber and Lew Fields leased a Broadway theater which they dubbed the “Weber & Fields’ Broadway Music Hall”; with this as a base of operations, they formed a stock company made up of headliners, including Templeton. Her appearance and weight well suited the burlesque stage rather than Gay Nineties; moreover, her comedic versatility, long dark hair, sultry smile, and throaty-voiced singing continued to win over audiences.
In “Fiddle Dee Dee”, a 1900 Weber & Fields production, Templeton performed the John Stromberg composition “Ma Blushin' Rosie, Ma Posie Sweet”, its first performance. The number which became the hit of the show, and was re-recorded by multiple artists in later years, including Al Jolson. In 1901, she premiered “I'm a Respectable Working Girl” in a new Music Hall show; this production incorporated elements of one-act burlesque shows “Quo Vas Iss”, “Arizona”, ‘Exhibit II”, and “Fiddle Dee Dee”. For all of these, music was composed Stromberg with lyrics by Edgar Smith.
In 1903, Templeton introduced the whimsical “The Woodchuck Song” (How much wood would a woodchuck chuck) written by Robert Hobart Davis for her, as part of the musical The Runaways.
1906 to 1913
George M. Cohan hired Templeton to play the lead in Forty-Five Minutes from Broadway. Templeton introduced the hit songs “So Long Mary” and “Mary Is a Grand Old Name”. .The musical debuted on January 1, 1906 at the New Amsterdam Theatre on Broadway and ran for 90 performances before closing on March 17. Following her August marriage to Pittsburgh industrialist William Patterson, Templeton announced her retirement from the stage yet reprised her role in Forty-Five Minutes from Broadway for its November re-opening.
In 1911, Weber & Fields began planning their reunion with a Jubilee touring company featuring all the old Music Hall stars. Templeton was one of the first to volunteer. The tour lasted five months and broke all records for touring companies. She continued in vaudeville with an act that included songs from previous shows.
During her time with Weber & Fields, Templeton frequently appeared alongside Peter F. Dailey, a well known burlesque and vaudeville performer. Dailey died in 1908, shortly after a performance, in Chicago; he was buried in the West family plot along with Fay’s first husband, William H. West. West and Dailey were brothers-in-law, married to sisters Emma Hanley and Mary Hanley Angus, respectively.
In 1913, Templeton again announced her retirement.
Recordings and motion pictures
Templeton appeared in only one full-length motion picture, preferring to perform in the live theatre. Her sole foray into full-length motion pictures was 1933’s Broadway to Hollywood (film), which featured many stars of the stage in numerous roles.
Templeton appeared in at least three short films from 1904-1907.
Many of Templeton’s songwriting efforts were performed on radio and recorded on phonograph. However, no recordings of her voice are extant.
Returning to performing
In 1925, Templeton appeared in an ‘old-timer’s’ show at the Palace Theater, again working with Weber & Fields. At this time, Templeton re-announced retirement. Asked if she would continue to perform, she replied, “It's been great fun, but it's a new Broadway and a new theater, and hereafter I'll be content to look on from out front”.
In another change of heart, she returned to the stage in 1926 to play Mrs. Cripps aka
‘Buttercup’ in a revival of H.M.S. Pinafore. Again, she claimed it was her last appearance on stage.
When Templeton’s husband died suddenly in 1932, she returned to the stage too resume earning a living; her husband’s estate never settled, leaving her without an independent means of support.
Her most significant stage appearance was in 1934’s production of “Roberta” by Jerome Kern in the role of Aunt Minnie, a dress shop owner in Paris. “Smoke Gets In Your Eyes”, which was debuted in this play, became a signature American classic song. Written for Templeton, the musical number “Yesterdays (1933 song) has also entered the American songbook as a jazz standard. While no recording of Templeton’s rendition exists, the classic has been covered by dozens of artists over the decades since Templeton’s launch of it in the show.
Bob Hope, in his American stage debut, provided comic relief for this show, which ran nine months.
Personal life
In May 1883, Templeton eloped with William H. West (“Billy”), a blackface minstrel performer, marrying in Nashville, Tennessee. After a three week visit to New York City, followed by three weeks in Chicago, Templeton left West and returned to New York. West filed for divorce in December 1886, in Chicago, citing “desertion” by Templeton. Templeton acknowledged this marriage on the marriage license for her 1906 wedding to William J Patterson, altering her “age at first marriage” to 15. No records have been found for the dissolution of this marriage other than press reports.
In 1887, Templeton began a long term relationship with Howell Osborn, the son of a wealthy New York City broker. Osborn was described as “the most conspicuous of the gilded youth about town”. The two lived in England and toured the continent for several years. At his death in May 1895, Osborn left Templeton $100,000; Templeton signed the probate record as “Fay Templeton-Osborn, formerly Fay Templeton”, implying that the couple were wed. Further, on her marriage license to her final husband, Templeton listed her name as “Fay T. Osborn”. No marriage license or records for Osborn and Templeton are noted to support assertions that the couple married in France. After debts were paid from Osborn’s estate, less than $21,000 was remaindered to Templeton.
On 1 Aug 1906, Templeton married William J Patterson, a partner at the Pittsburgh engineering firm of Heyl & Patterson Inc.Their marriage was held in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania. Following a European honeymoon, the couple made their main residence in Springdale, Pennsylvania. The marriage, which was childless, ended in Patterson’s death in 1931. Patterson died intestate; his estate, valued at $136,000, was never distributed and his death left Templeton destitute.
Death
At age 71 and suffering from arthritis, Templeton found herself unable to support herself. In 1936, she relocated from Pittsburgh to the Lillian Booth Actors Home Englewood, New Jersey.
Afterward, Templeton moved to San Francisco, living with a cousin. She died on October 3, 1939, at age 73, in San Francisco.
Musical compositions recovered
In June 2010, recordings of music composed by Fay Templeton preserved on two 1896-1897 gramophone recordings were discovered aboard the wreck of the Klondike Gold Rush paddlewheeler A. J. Goddard. Other recordings were discovered as well. The Goddard sank in a storm on October 22, 1901, in Lake Laberge, Yukon. The wreckage was first discovered in June 2008; the recordings were discovered on a more complete exploration of the vessel on 5 Jul 2008. The recordings’ vocals featured other artists, but no voice recordings of Templeton, either speaking or singing, were part of the wreckage recovery.
Templeton's recovered titles are "Ma Onliest One", recorded in New York on April 17, 1896, with Len Spencer heard in the vocals, and "Rendez Vous Waltz", recorded on July 1, 1897, with music performed by the Metropolitan Orchestra. The gramophone recording process used on these discs was developed by Emile Berliner.
In popular culture
In the 1941 musical Babes on Broadway, Judy Garland performs an impression of Templeton singing "Mary's a Grand Old Name".
In the 1942 movie musical Yankee Doodle Dandy, Templeton was portrayed by actress Irene Manning.
In the 1968 Broadway musical George M!, she was portrayed by Jacqueline Alloway.

The 2021 Daraa offensive was an offensive between rebel fighters and Syrian government forces in the Daraa Governorate, as part of the on-going Daraa insurgency. The offensive saw heavy clashes throughout the governorate, particularly in the Daraa al-Balad neighborhood, which was besieged by government troops.
The clashes were the fiercest Daraa had witnessed since the Syrian Army 2018 offensive.
Background
The southern city of Daraa, Daraa al-Balad, was the same place where the civil uprising against the Syrian government started back in March 2011. Therefore it was a major blow for the rebels when they were defeated in the province in 2018. Reconciliation deals were made and the rebels had to hand over their weapons to the Syrian Army. Those militants who did not accept the deal were transferred to the Idlib Governorate. Despite recapturing all lost territories, the Syrian Army was not able to deploy troops across the entire province. This caused rising insurgency attacks and assassinations among government forces.
By the end of June, Russia urged new reconciliation deals to seize personal weapons of the people in Daraa city. The request was widely rejected across the area. Following the rejection of the Russian demands Syrian Army security forces imposed a siege on the neighbourhoods of Daraa al-Balad to exert pressure on the residents of the city. As a result 11,000 Syrian families were besieged after the former FSA fighters refused to hand over their weapons. The persistent siege led to extortionate prices on goods and limited availability of drinking water. After a few weeks the negotiation committees of Daraa and the Syrian government reached an agreement to end the siege and evade a military escalation. The deal will be implemented as a five-phase agreement in which all roads will be reopened, rebel light weapons will be handed over and the government can keep three checkpoints in the city.
Clashes
Despite the agreement with the negotiation committees to evade a military operation, the Syrian Army started to fire artillery shells towards insurgent cells in Daraa city on 29 July 2021. Syrian Army sources described the attack as “start of a military operation against hideouts of terrorists who thwarted a reconciliation deal.” According to a pro-government military officer, notables in Daraa's al-Balad district had promised the government forces to peacefully hand over the weapons of local insurgents. However, this transfer did not come to pass, and disputes devolved into fighting. In contrast, pro-opposition figures accused the government of failure to adhere to the agreement including promises to stay out of al-Balad district.
The government's operation led to actions of retaliation by rebels across the province. The fighters involved in the attack are former rebel fighters that surrendered to the government in 2018, as well as former rebels that defected to the government, and had been working against the government from within. Anti-government fighters seized several checkpoints and captured many surprised Syrian Army soldiers and Military Intelligence Directorate agents. While the Syrian Army's 4th Division was leading the anti-rebel operations, the overrun checkpoints mostly belonged to the 5th Division, 9th Division, and Air Force Intelligence Directorate. Overall, 18 positions in the countryside east and west of Daraa were captured by armed locals.
The ex-rebels then offered new negotiations, but the government initially maintained its stance that weaponry had to be handed over and all non-reconciled insurgents had to be transferred to the still rebel-held Idlib Governorate. Both sides agreed to a ceasefire for 30–31 July after negotiations organized by the Russians and military officer Ahmad al-Awda. On 31 July, the situation remained tense, but most areas adhered to the ceasefire. There were sporadic instances of government forces firing at residential areas in Daraa al-Balad, Jasim, Muzayrib, and near Tafas, while an armed group consisting of ex-insurgents organized a curfew in al-Shajara.
On August 5, after several days of tense calm, rebels targeted a Syrian army vehicle on the road between Nahtah and Basr al-Harir in eastern Daraa countryside, leaving a soldier dead and 6 others wounded. There was also reported rocket fire by the Syrian army, targeting the town of Nahtah.
On August 14, hours before talks were set to take place between the Central Committee and Russian delegations, the Syrian Army bombarded Daraa al-Balad, killing one civilian.
On August 16, a member of the Syrian Army's 4th Division was shot dead by unknown gunmen in Maskin city in the north-western countryside of Daraa. A civilian was also killed by gunmen in al-Sanamayn city, after being accused of “dealing with the military security service and snitching on oppositionists”.
On August 19, an IED targeted a Syrian army convoy of the 112th Brigade on the al-Shabrouq road between the two towns of Nafaa and Ain Zakr in west of Daraa countryside, killing 6 Syrian soldiers and militiamen, including a Brigadier.
On August 20, Syrian artillery shelling in Daraa al-Balad killed Mohamed Hilal Zatima, a reconciled commander of the Free Syrian Army.
On August 25, it was reported by the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights and pro-government media that a truce and evacuation was agreed between Syrian rebels and Syrian Armed forces. Rebels forces will be allowed to leave Darás toward Syria's North (Idlib) in turn Syrian Armed forces could enter Dara al-Balad.
On August 26, one Syrian soldier was killed and 4 others were wounded after an IED exploded targeting a Syrian army vehicle on the road between Nawa and Sheikh Maskeen. This follows Syrian army bombardments on Tafas city, resulting in the death of 2 civilians and the injury of several others.
On August 27, 6 members of the reconciled 5th Corps, including a commander, were killed in a Syrian army ambush at al-Ruba’i checkpoint between al-Msifrah and al-Jizah. Fierce fighting between gunmen and the Syrian army took place on the frontline of al-Kaziyah in al-Mansheya area in Daraa al-Balad shortly after.
Between August 29 and August 30, 7 Syrian soldiers were killed in clashes with insurgents along with 12 others wounded throughout Daraa province. These events come prior to Syrian army shelling on the besieged Daraa al-Balad, that left civilian casualties.
After the heavy bombardment, the insurgents agreed to a truce on September 1, allowing for rebels to settle their status with the government. Russian military police and Syrian state forces entered the besieged Daraa al-Balad neighborhood, hoisting up the Syrian flag in the area. The truce was soon broken, with intense clashes reported on September 5. The same day, the Russians threatened the insurgents that they would take part in a government offensive if they refused to surrender.
On September 5, the insurgents agreed to another truce, with 60 militants handing over their weapons to the Syrian army. The new agreement allowed several pro-government checkpoints to be established in Daraa al-Balad.
Reactions
Protests were held in support of the rebels in Daraa in the opposition-held cities of Idlib and al-Bab. On August 3, the main road connecting Arbin, Mesraba and Madira, in the Ghouta region of Rif Dimashq was cut by rebel supporters for a day before the army was deployed to the region.

Hope is a township municipality in the Canadian province of Quebec, located within the Bonaventure Regional County Municipality. Its population was 568 in the Canada 2016 Census.
The only population centre within the township is Saint-Jogues ().
History
The township was surveyed circa 1786, and named in honour of British Colonel Henry Hope (c. 1746 – 1789), lieutenant-governor of Quebec from 1785 to 1789. At that time, the township also included the territory of Hope Town, Paspébiac, and Saint-Godefroi.
In 1913, Saint-Godefroi split off, and in 1936, Hope Town became a separate incorporated municipality.
The community of Saint-Jogues was formed in 1930 when 52 settlers were encouraged to colonize Gaspésie's interior during the Great Depression. By 1937, there were 300 residents in this village.
Demographics
In the 2021 Census of Population conducted by Statistics Canada, Hope had a population of living in of its total private dwellings, a change of from its 2016 population of . With a land area of , it had a population density of in 2021.

Henry Bakis is professor emeritus of geography at the University of Montpellier. His research has mainly focused on industry, firms and ICT geography (information and communications technologies). One of his primary interests has been considering the articulation and the effects of electronic communication networks on territories and social networks.
Biography
Bakis plays an active role in the International Geographical Union commission dedicated to ICT: executive secretary, chairman or vice-chair of the commissions dedicated to ICT (1985 - 2016).
He founded and edited the Communication Newsletter Geography (1985 - 2000) and the journal Netcom (1987) on communication and territories.
Bakis was a researcher at the French CNET from 1978 to 1995. He was associated research director at Paris-Sorbonne University from 1991 to 1996; and professor of economic geography at the University of Montpellier (1996-2015).
Scope of work
Multinationals, technology and spatial organization
During the 1970s Bakis studied the consequences of industrial policies, industrial subcontracting and multinational firms activities in the French regions (IBM Case study). He then turned his attention to telecommunications networks of large enterprises first from the IBM case.
More generally, the relationship between organizations, network technologies and geographical space are the center of his analysis. He "has contributed greatly to promote this approach of the geography, both within French geographers as within the International Geographical Union.".
Geography of ICT
Since the end of the 1970s Bakis calls for the study of telecommunications, ICT systems and digital network technologies from the geographical point of view. He "did pioneering work through important scientific production". For Bakis, telecommunications is "one of the levers of regional planning to open up the territories, improve economic performance, and allow various forms of teleactivities, a new connection between the local and the global level". He worked on the digital development of territories following the development of the Internet and digital infrastructures.
Spatial heterogeneity
The work of Bakis demonstrates that ICT does not lead to the "death of distance", or "the end of geography " in spite of the assertions of some futurologists as Richard O'Brien, Frances Cairncross, Kenichi Ohmae.
ICT would minimize the importance of geographical locations, the development of networks but simultaneously leads to greater spatial heterogeneity with enhanced polarization and metropolisation. The development of infrastructure networks is closely related to demographic, social and economic pre-existing environment. Bakis dismissed the unfounded hopes of positive spatial effects. Bakis wrote that despite the development of infrastructure and communications services "space continues to be differentiated and this is one of the reasons why networks are heterogeneous".
He pleads also for the development of electro-sensitive fog free areas (implementation of the precautionary principle).
Geocybergeography
Bakis is considered as the "inventor of the concept of geocybergeography". He considers that human beings still live in a geographical classical space but this space is modified by the use of ICT. Today, it includes new attributes making it more complex.
The cyberspace of electronic communication does not substitute nor overlap classical space; instead, it comes to mingle closely with the later at all scales. Bakis termed geocyberspace this contemporary form of geographic space in which are modified: the distance (apparent reduction), time (ubiquitous for some services) and costs.
Geopolitics of information
Bakis geopolitical approach to communications networks has focused on the role of technology and new technical networks in the changing cultural and political contexts for populations from recent migrations or from older diasporas, and for cultural, ethnic or religious minorities. Identities of all kind of minorities can be maintained and strengthened in the Internet age. Electronic communication networks disrupt the concepts of distance.

|}USS S-1 (SS-105)''' was the lead boat of the S class of submarines of the United States Navy.
Construction and commissioning
The U.S. Navy had awarded contracts for the first three S-boats under the same general specifications but of different design types. S-1 was what was known as a "Holland-type", while was a "Lake-type" and a "Government-type".S-1s prime contractor, the Electric Boat Company, subcontracted her construction to the Fore River Shipbuilding Company of Quincy, Massachusetts. Her keel was laid down on 11 December 1917. She was launched on 26 October 1918, sponsored by Mrs. Emory S. Land, and commissioned on 5 June 1920.
Service history
United States Navy
Inter-war periodS-1 began her service operations in July 1920 with a cruise to Bermuda attached to Submarine Division 2 (SubDiv 2), with subsequent operations out of New London, Connecticut, cruising the New England coast until 1923.
On 2 January 1923, she shifted to SubDiv Zero, a division created for experimental work, and conducted winter maneuvers in the Caribbean Sea. As a single-ship division, SubDiv Zero, she returned to New London in the spring to continue experimental duty.
As part of a series of studies conducted by the United States Navy after World War I into the possibility of submarine-borne observation and scouting aircraft, S-1 became the experimental platform for this project late in 1923. She was altered by having a steel capsule mounted abaft the conning tower; a cylindrical pod which could house a small collapsible seaplane, the Martin MS-1. After surfacing, this plane could be rolled out, quickly assembled, and launched by ballasting the sub until the deck was awash. These experiments were carried out into 1926 using the Martin-built plane, constructed of wood and fabric, and the all-metal Cox-Klemin versions, XS-1 and XS-2. The first full cycle of surfacing, assembly, launching, retrieving, disassembly, and submergence took place on 28 July 1926, on the Thames River at New London.
Following the aircraft experiments, S-1 served as flagship for SubDiv 2 until July 1927, when she was transferred to SubDiv 4. While attached to this division, she made operational cruises to the Panama Canal Zone in 1928–1930, during the spring months. She visited ports at Cristobal, Canal Zone and Coco Solo, Canal Zone; Cartagena, Colombia; Kingston, Jamaica; and Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, during these cruises, and spent the remaining months of those years operating along the New England coast, out of New London.
January 1931 found her at Pearl Harbor. She remained there into 1937; first, attached to SubDiv 7, SubRon 4, then, from July 1932 – July 1933, attached to Rotating Reserve SubDiv 14. She was returned to SubDiv 7 in August, and remained with that division until departing in May 1937 for Philadelphia. S-1 arrived at Philadelphia on 22 July and commenced overhaul for deactivation. She was decommissioned on 20 October.
World War II
On 16 October 1940, S-1 was recommissioned at Philadelphia. She then made two cruises to Bermuda, training submariners, and returned to Philadelphia from the second cruise on 7 December 1941. There, she prepared for transfer to Britain under the Lend-Lease program. She was decommissioned and turned over to the British on 20 April 1942. Her name was struck from the Naval Vessel Register on 24 June.
Royal NavyS-1 served the Royal Navy as HMS P.552'' as a training vessel for anti-submarine warfare. In poor condition after arriving in Durban, Natal, South Africa, she was often in repair and she was declared unseaworthy in January 1944.
She was returned to the U.S. Navy at Durban on 16 October 1944, where she was stripped of vital parts and machinery, and her hull was sold for local scrapping on 20 July 1945 and she was scrapped there on 14 September of that year.

David Bruce Crouch, (born 31 October 1953) is a British historian and academic. From 2000 until his retirement in 2018 he was Professor of Medieval History at the University of Hull.
Academia
He graduated in history from the former University College, Cardiff, in 1975, and pursued a career in secondary school teaching in Mountain Ash, South Wales till 1983. While serving as a schoolteacher he completed a doctorate on the Anglo-Norman twin aristocrats, Waleran of Meulan and Robert of Leicester, subsequently published by Cambridge University Press. From 1984 he occupied research posts in the University of London until moving to a teaching position in North Riding College, later University College, Scarborough in 1990. In 2000 he transferred to the Department of History in the University of Hull as professor of medieval history. He has occupied visiting professorships in Poitiers and Milwaukee. From 2013 he held a Leverhulme Trust Major Research Fellowship and in 2015 he was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton.
Corpus of work
Professor Crouch's main focus is on the social and political history of the period from 1000 to 1300, primarily in England and France, with a particular emphasis on comparative studies of social structures between the various realms of Britain and continental France. His fullest statement on his theory that it was the formulation of nobility as a self-conscious aristocratic quality demanding social deference is to be found in his 2005 work The Birth of Nobility. His idea is that once nobility was a quality that could be acquired and demonstrated by conduct and lifestyle as much as by birth, a cascade effect was triggered which produced a hierarchy of social classes organised by relative degrees of nobility, such as the hearth son of a knight. He sees this as happening in the generations on either side of the year 1200.
From the beginning of his career he has also published on the medieval history of South East Wales and the diocese of Llandaff.
In political history he has written influential biographies on King Stephen and William Marshal. He was a member of the academic team which edited and translated into English the contemporary medieval biography of Marshal
His books on the aristocracy of England and France in the High Middle Ages, have been characterised by his incorporation of English social history into the mainstream of continental scholarship.
Honours
In 1986, Crouch was elected a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society (FRHistS). In 2014, he was elected a Fellow of the British Academy (FBA), the United Kingdom's national academy for the humanities and social sciences.

The Parabiago plate, also known as the Parabiago patera, is an ancient Roman circular silver plate depicting mythological figures. It was found in an ancient Roman cemetery at Parabiago, near Milan, in 1907. The plate depicts Cybele with her consort Attis in a "vast cosmic setting" amid "sun, moon, earth and sea, time and the seasons." At the time of its discovery, it was thought to have been used as a lid for a funerary amphora.
The plate is difficult to date. Earlier scholars tended to date it to the 2nd century CE, because of its classicizing style, but stylistic characteristics also permit a later date. Technical analyses, however, support a provenance in the 4th–5th centuries, even though it bears little stylistic resemblance to other silver pieces from that period.
Description
The plate weighs 3555 g and measures 390 mm in diameter. It has a foot-ring of 26 mm in height. The surface is worked with figures in high relief.
Center left: Cybele and Attis ride in a quadriga pulled by four lions. They are accompanied by three Corybantes.
Center right: Rising from the ground is a nude youth who holds up a zodiac ring surrounding Aion, wearing a chiton and holding a sceptre.
Far right center: A snake twines around an obelisk or gnomon.
Upper left: The Sun rising in his chariot, preceded by the winged, torch-bearing morning star, Phosphorus.
Upper right: The Moon setting in her chariot (biga), preceded by the evening star, Hesperus, also winged and carrying a torch.
Lower center: Four erotes representing the seasons hover above Neptune and Thetis.
Lower left: Two river nymphs.
Lower right: Tellus, with two erotes who point toward Cybele. Above the head of Tellus is a small grasshopper and a lizard.

The Conservators of the River Cam are the navigation authority for the River Cam in Cambridgeshire and were founded in 1702.
History
Cambridge had been a major inland port as a result of its position on the navigable River Cam for centuries, but this position changed with the draining of the Fens. The most notable change was caused by the construction of Denver sluice on the River Great Ouse, under the terms of the Drainage Act of 1649, which resulted in tidal waters being cut off from the River Cam. Navigation became difficult, and in 1697, both the University of Cambridge and the town corporation complained to parliament that the supply of goods to the town from Kings Lynn was greatly impaired.
Against this background, the Corporation sought to obtain an Act of Parliament in 1699, which would allow them to reinstate navigation to Cambridge. The Act was obtained on 27 February 1702 and established the Conservators as a legal body with powers to collect tolls in order to maintain the river. Tolls ranged from four shillings (20p) a ton for wine to one penny (0.4p) for each passenger using the river, and the Conservators, of whom there were a maximum of eleven, were empowered to mortgage the tolls in order to raise capital with which to improve the condition of the river. This they did, and built sluices at Jesus Green, Chesterton, Baits Bite and Clayhithe. Most of the tolls were collected at Clayhithe.
Denver sluice collapsed prior to 1820, and although the Corporation of Cambridge opposed its rebuilding, it was rebuilt by 1850. Tolls on the river gradually increased, from £432 in 1752, to over £1,000 in 1803. 1835 was the best year, when tolls reached £1,995, after which they declined again, although they did not drop below £1,000 until 1847. The Conservators appear to have managed the river prudently, deriving a little extra revenue in rents from public houses which were constructed at each of the sluices.
The Cam Navigation Act of 1813 gave the Conservators powers to raise tolls and to charge penalties, while the South Level Act of 1827 extended their control over the section of river from Popes Corner to Bottisham. This Act also increased the number of Conservators by two, as the Mayor of Cambridge and vice-chancellor of the University were appointed as official members of the body. They built locks at Baits Bite and Bottisham, and removed the sluice at Chesterton. They donated £400 towards the cost of rebuilding the Great Bridge in 1823, and a further £300 towards the cost of the small bridge in 1841. The following year they spent £880 on constructing a house at Clayhithe, which included a large room suitable for meetings and banquets.
The coming of the railways in 1845 brought to an end the success of the navigation. The Commissioners received £1,393 from tolls in 1846 but only £367 in 1850. Two further acts of parliament were obtained in 1851 and 1894, largely to alter the tolls, but receipts continued to fall, to £99 in 1898 and £79 in 1905. By this time, the lower river was managed by the South Level Commissioners, and the River Cam Commissioners again managed the river above Bottisham lock.
Responsibility for the lower river passed to the Environment Agency in 1995, but the Conservators remain as the navigation authority for the river above Bottisham lock. The house at Clayhithe still stands, and is now the residence of the foreman of the Conservators.

Eric Xun Li, born Li Shimo (; born 4 May 1968), is a Chinese venture capitalist and political scientist. He founded the Chinese nationalist news site (), and is a board of directors member at the China Europe International Business School, as well as a trustee of the China Institute at Fudan University. Li has several opinion pieces published in Western media outlets where he criticizes liberal democracy and praises what he calls the "Chinese meritocratic system" and the Chinese political leadership.
Early life and education
Li was born and raised in Shanghai. He went to the United States for higher education in the late 1980s. He received his BA in economics from the University of California, Berkeley, and an MBA from the Graduate School of Business at Stanford University. He also has a PhD in political science from Fudan University.
Business ventures
In 2000, Eric Li returned to China and established Chengwei Capital, an evergreen venture capital fund headquartered in Shanghai. With a cumulative total investment exceeding $2 billion U.S. dollars, the firm has invested in over 100 companies across various sectors such as communication software, enterprise software, financial services, IC design, niche component manufacturing, healthcare, and media. Its top investments include Sunny Optical Technology, AAC Technologies, Sungrow, Hanting Hotel, Youku, China Renaissance, AInnovation, and Roivant Sciences. Its current investment portfolio also includes a number of unicorns, among them, Hellobike, WM Motor, Baibu, XAG, Sila Nano, and StarFive. He serves as a member of the board of directors of the RISC-V International Association.
Views
In 2011, Li founded Guancha.cn, a digital news platform. Zihao Chen of University College London viewed the site as an online entity with "very conservative political attitudes".
In an op-ed he wrote for The New York Times in 2012, he said that China needed a different development framework around a different idea of modernity.
In a 2012 op-ed and a 2013 TED Talk, Li advocated for China's one-party state on the grounds of "pluralism", saying that China has prospered under a "meritocratic system" and alleviated poverty without elections, and that its system is superior to Western democracy in several respects. Some commentators have deemed Li's talk to be pro-China propaganda spread on a Western platform, using Western-style arguments and flexible rhetorics.
In a 2018 opinion piece he wrote for The Washington Post, Li argued it was "a good thing" that General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party and paramount leader Xi Jinping abolished his two-term limits for governing the country. In a 2020 op-ed he wrote for Foreign Policy, Li said that Xi is a "good emperor".
In a 2020 interview with David Barboza, Eric Li described the China Policy of the Trump administration as an "irrational rivalry".
In a 2021 opinion piece he wrote for The Economist, Li criticized liberal democracy in favor of the "current Chinese government" (which he described as a different form of democracy).
Affiliations
Li also serves on the board of directors of China Europe International Business School (CEIBS), the board of Stanford University's Graduate School of Business and the Freeman Spogli Institute (FSI). He is a trustee of Fudan University's China Institute, a trustee of the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive of the University of California, Berkeley, a trustee of the San Francisco Symphony, a trustee of Asia Society Hong Kong, a member of the international board of the New York Philharmonic, a member of the Council of the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), which organizes the annual Shangri-La Dialogue.

In category theory, a branch of mathematics, the opposite category or dual category Cop of a given category C is formed by reversing the morphisms, i.e. interchanging the source and target of each morphism. Doing the reversal twice yields the original category, so the opposite of an opposite category is the original category itself. In symbols, .
Examples
An example comes from reversing the direction of inequalities in a partial order. So if X is a set and ≤ a partial order relation, we can define a new partial order relation ≤op by
x ≤op y if and only if y ≤ x.
The new order is commonly called dual order of ≤, and is mostly denoted by ≥. Therefore, duality plays an important role in order theory and every purely order theoretic concept has a dual. For example, there are opposite pairs child/parent, descendant/ancestor, infimum/supremum, down-set/up-set, ideal/filter etc. This order theoretic duality is in turn a special case of the construction of opposite categories as every ordered set can be understood as a category.
Given a semigroup (S, ·), one usually defines the opposite semigroup as (S, ·)op = (S, *) where x*y ≔ y·x for all x,y in S. So also for semigroups there is a strong duality principle. Clearly, the same construction works for groups, as well, and is known in ring theory, too, where it is applied to the multiplicative semigroup of the ring to give the opposite ring. Again this process can be described by completing a semigroup to a monoid, taking the corresponding opposite category, and then possibly removing the unit from that monoid.
The category of Boolean algebras and Boolean homomorphisms is equivalent to the opposite of the category of Stone spaces and continuous functions.
The category of affine schemes is equivalent to the opposite of the category of commutative rings.
The Pontryagin duality restricts to an equivalence between the category of compact Hausdorff abelian topological groups and the opposite of the category of (discrete) abelian groups.
By the Gelfand–Neumark theorem, the category of localizable measurable spaces (with measurable maps) is equivalent to the category of commutative Von Neumann algebras (with normal unital homomorphisms of *-algebras).

Ermelo (, Dutch Low Saxon: Armelo or Armel) is a municipality and town in the Netherlands; found within Gelderland province and the forest-rich Veluwe area. The population was .
Etymology
Ermelo comes from lo, meaning "woods" and irmin for which several explanations are given. Some of those are "great", "divine" or it refers to an old Germanic god called Irmin.
Population centres
History
The town has been known to exist since at least 855, when the name Irminlo first appeared in a legal document. Human presence in the area goes back further however, with many archaeological finds of the Bell-Beaker culture having been made in the area.
For a long time the town most likely consisted of little more than a few farms and some other buildings like a windmill and a church and it didn't really grow much until the 19th century; in the year 1830 a road was made to make this part of the Veluwe more accessible and at the end of the 19th century the town got a railway station. Because the railway station was some distance away from what was then the town centre a road was constructed, the Stationsstraat, which is now considered to be the centre of the town. After the second world war a shortage of houses resulted in a rapid growth of Ermelo. In 1973 Nunspeet became its own separate municipality after having been part of Ermelo before. In 2005, Ermelo celebrated its 1150-year-long existence. Various artists from across the country performed during the festivities. A classic windmill dating from 1863 located in the town centre, named (The Cow), partially burned down in 1990 after having been hit by lightning, but was restored to working order in late 2008. A nightclub moved out due to the complete renovation.
Recreation
There are many campsites in the forests surrounding Ermelo which are popular place to stay for mainly Dutch and German tourists. Cycling through the forests and heaths is a popular activity, especially during the summer. The nearby Veluwemeer allows for recreation on the water or beach. The town centre is home to various bars and restaurants and a tourist information centre.
Ermelo hosts various music festivals, such as the Fête de la Musique, Multipop and the International Boogie Woogie Festival. In 2010 the latter featured amongst others pianist Little Willie Littlefield and saxophonist Big Jay McNeely.
Transport
The town's railway station is located near the town centre, with a train normally leaving every 30 minutes during the day both north towards Zwolle and south towards Amersfoort and Utrecht. By car, it can be easily reached from highway A28 which passes west of the town and provincial road N303 which passes through the town. There are also various bus routes passing through the town. is easily accessible from the A28. A pedestrian and cyclist only ferry operates between Horst beach and Zeewolde, crossing the Veluwemeer.
Sports
Ermelo is home to various sports clubs. At the time of UEFA Euro 2000, the Portugal national football team stayed in Ermelo and played against one of the local clubs, DVS '33. This club organizes an annual international tournament for young players. Spanish La Liga football team Valencia CF has regularly used Ermelo as a base for their preseason training, and have played a number of matches at the local ground against other visiting clubs from Europe, such as Lokomotiv Sofia in 2007 and Fenerbahçe in 2006. In May 2009 it became clear that plans for a merge of DVS'33, and KC Ermelo were cancelled. The National Equestrian Center of the Dutch National Equestrian Federation (KNHS) is also located in Ermelo. They hosted the 2009 European Championships for Juniors and Young Riders in dressage, the World Championships for Young Dressage Horses, the Dutch Dressage Championships and various international equestrian championships.

John Norman Maguire (born 15 September 1956) is a former Australian cricketer who played in three Test matches and 23 One Day Internationals in 1983 and 1984.
Career
A right-arm fast-medium bower, Maguire debuted for Wynnum Manly in Queensland at 20 years and 74 days after being discovered playing Warehouse cricket. For Wynnum he played over eight seasons from 1977 to 1984, taking 96 wickets at 19.18.
Maguire made his first-class cricket debut for Queensland in 1977–78 but did not hold down a regular place until 1981–82. He played his first one-day international in 1982–83, earning fame because he was called up during a Sheffield Shield game and had to be replaced by Michael Maranta.
Maguire toured Sri Lanka in 1983 without playing a Test although he played some one day games.
Tests
Maguire made his Test debut against Pakistan in December 1983, replacing an injured Rodney Hogg.
He was picked in the squad to tour the West Indies in 1984 and played in the last two tests.
He also went on the one day tour to India in 1984.
South African tours and Australian ban
Maguire was unable to break into the Test side over the 1984–85 summer. He was close to being selected in the squad to tour England in 1985. When Terry Alderman and Rod McCurdy revealed they had signed to play in South Africa over the 1985–86 and 86-87 summers, they were replaced by Carl Rackemann and Maguire. However it was then revealed they had both signed as well and were unable to tour, being finally replaced by Jeff Thomson and Dave Gilbert.
Like the other rebel tourists, Maguire was banned from first class cricket in Australia for two years and from representative cricket for three years. He played in South Africa during that time.
Later career
Towards the end of his career he played two seasons in South Africa for Eastern Province and one for English county side Leicestershire, winning South African Cricketer of the Year in 1990.
His return to South Africa meant he was banned for an additional ten years, but this was lifted when South Africa was re-admitted to world cricket.

Confetti is the sixth studio album by British girl group Little Mix, released through RCA Records on 6 November 2020. It was largely recorded before the COVID-19 pandemic, which interfered with the promotion plan for the album. It was the group's last album to feature group member Jesy Nelson, after her departure from the group in December 2020, and their first to be released under RCA Records, following their departure from Syco Music. Confetti is a pop, and R&B, record, that lyrically addresses themes of self-acceptance, self-worth, freedom, and independence.
Upon release, it received generally positive reviews from critics, becoming the group's highest rated album to date on Metacritic. Critics described it as a solid pop album and praised its production. It spawned four singles; "Break Up Song", the album's lead single peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart, while the second single "Holiday" reached number fifteen. "Sweet Melody" was released as the album's third single and became their fifth number one in the UK. A remix of the title track, featuring American rapper Saweetie, was released as the final single, reaching number nine on the UK Charts.
Confetti is the group's most successful album in terms of top ten charts placements globally. It debuted at number two on the UK Albums Chart, becoming the fastest-selling album of 2020 by a British act. It topped the Irish Albums Chart, and reached the top ten in various countries. To promote the album, Little Mix embarked on The Confetti Tour in 2022, which visited the UK and Ireland. The tour was commercially successful, grossing over $6 million dollars within six shows and received positive critical acclaim from critics.
Background
On 12 March 2020, Little Mix released a music video for the LM5 (2018) album track "Wasabi". At the end of the video, the album cover for LM5 was seen standing on a platform before being thrown out by an explosion of confetti, followed by the message 'New Era Pending'.
On 16 September 2020, Confetti was announced across multiple social media platforms by Little Mix, revealing the release date of 6 November 2020, as well as the album art and the title. On 18 September, streaming services released pre-orders of the album. The standard edition has 13 tracks. On 27 October, Little Mix partnered with Amazon Alexa to release the official track listing. Fans were encouraged to say "Alexa, drop some Confetti" and they would receive a track name. The next day, 28 October, the full track listing was confirmed.
The album was "pretty much finished" before the COVID-19 lockdowns were implemented, with "little tweaks" still to be made. As restrictions eased, each of the members individually visited the studios to add "final touches", whereas for their previous albums, they would complete the album process together. Perrie Edwards noted that it was a "weird process", but that they felt they had to complete it due to wanting "everyone to hear it". Jesy Nelson noted the contrast between Confetti and LM5, stating that LM5 was very "girl power", whereas with Confetti, she said: "With this album, we just had fun and wrote songs that we liked and it came together". Jade Thirlwall agreed with Nelson, adding, "Not every single song has to have this super deep meaning. People know what we're about now and know what we stand for. I think LM5 was very much about solidifying that, whereas with this album it is just about writing brilliant pop songs that we love." Confetti was described by Leigh-Anne Pinnock as the group's "biggest" album yet. Around the album's release, Nelson took some time out of the group's promotion schedule, citing a private medical matter. On 14 December, Nelson announced she was leaving the group due to the impact on her mental health. In a statement, she said, "I find the constant pressure of being in a girl group and living up to expectations very hard."
On 12 June 2021, a new vinyl version of the album was made available in selected stores around the world for Record Store Day 2021. The new version came in an orange and pink cover with the album title printed in cursive silver glitter. The new version exclusively featured the new remix version of the album's title track, "Confetti", featuring American rapper Saweetie.
On 13 July 2022, a limited vinyl edition in partner-ship with UNICEF UK, Blue Vinyl series was released.
Music and lyrics
Musically, Confetti is a pop and R&B record, incorporating elements of synth-pop, gospel, retro and contemporary pop production that "provides its audience with a warm and fuzzy feeling of nostalgic delight". The album was also described as reminiscent of the group's previous bubblegum-pop records, but with a more mature sound and "poignant lyrics". Lyrically, the songs discuss being freed from unrealistic expectations, self-acceptance, self-worth and a "fierce and mercifully coherent statement of independence".
Songs
Confetti opens with "Break Up Song", a 1980s synth-pop "kiss-off anthem" about joy and liberation that one can find in single life. It has been compared to Don Henley's "The Boys of Summer". Sam Etzioni of Renowned for Sound believes that the song serves as a sequel to the group's Glory Days track "Shout Out to My Ex". The second track, "Holiday", has a "post-Daft Punk" feel and is set to house beats. The third track, "Sweet Melody", has reggaeton beats, and lyrically is about getting over an ex-boyfriend. The title track, which serves as the fourth track of the album, is reminiscent of a compilation of early 2000s hits, and encapsulates the feel-good tone of the album as a whole. The song contains self-sufficient lyrics and promotes a focus on one's individual enjoyment of life, a lack of preoccupation with men and relationships and an appreciation for what one has right here and now.
"Happiness", the fifth track, is a Europop-R&B song. Lyrically, the song is about finding strength from within, rather than needing a partner to draw that strength and happiness from. The lyrics are reminiscent to the group's LM5 track "The Cure" for its message regarding self-love and acceptance. The sixth track, "Not A Pop Song", is a guitar-lead track, containing lyrics about battling unrealistic expectations and superficial standards in the pop world. The song also appears to take a swipe at Simon Cowell and his record label, Syco Music, which the group left back in 2018, with the lyrics "I don't do what Simon says". The song is also described as "the perfect ode to the stereotypical pop music factory". The seventh track, "Nothing But My Feelings", is lyrically about a "booty call". Member Jade Thirlwall said that they "[the writers] purposefully made the song seem quite innocent, but really when you look into the lyrics they're pretty filthy".
The eighth track, "Gloves Up", has a euphoric and deep groove with clattering rhythm that is reminiscent of 2000s R&B. The ninth track, "A Mess (Happy 4 U)", is a melodic pop song, shifting after two minutes into a dark cloud of sampled panting, booming drums and distorted vocals. "My Love Won't Let You Down", which serves as the tenth track of the album, is a gospel piano ballad. The song talks about the "human nature of friendship", and it is believed to be written as a love letter for the fans. Jacklyn Krol of PopCrush described the song as a "soaring ballad" and that it "shows off the group’s raw vocal talent without getting bogged down by glossy production". The eleventh track, "Rendezvous", is a contemporary pop song with hints of retro, and has been compared to the work of the Pussycat Dolls, particularly their song "Buttons". The song samples "Sway" by Dean Martin.
"If You Want My Love", the twelfth track, is a R&B song, and has drawn comparisons to TLC and Destiny's Child. The closing track, "Breathe", is a torch song and lyrically about heartbreak. "Bounce Back" appears on the Japanese deluxe version of Confetti, and is a trap-pop song that interpolates "Back to Life (However Do You Want Me)" by Soul II Soul.
Artwork
The standard cover of the Confetti album depicts Nelson, Pinnock, Thirlwall, and Edwards, each wearing glittery makeup with fluorescent lights flying across the background. The name of the group can be seen at the top of the cover printed in off-white color, and the album name at the bottom. Pinnock can also be observed wearing her engagement ring in the cover artwork, after she was engaged to her fiancé Andre Gray in May 2020. The back cover also has fluorescent lights in the background, similar to the front, and displays the track list of the album. The expanded edition of the album features the same cover but with the name of the band printed in blue color. The exclusive vinyl version of the album for Record Store Day 2021 came with an orange and pink cover with the album title printed in cursive silver glitter.
Promotion
Singles
Confetti was supported by four singles. On 27 March 2020, "Break Up Song" was released as the lead single from the then-untitled album. The official music video was released on 8 May 2020. The song debuted at number nine on the UK Singles Chart, and spent 18 weeks on the chart. The song charted in several other countries and received gold music certifications from the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) and from Pro-Música Brasil (PMB).
"Holiday" was released on 24 July 2020 and served as the album's second single. Its music video was filmed during isolation due to the COVID-19 pandemic, in front of a greenscreen, and features the group as mermaids and goddesses. It was released on 28 August 2020. The track peaked at number fifteen on the UK Singles Chart, and charted in ten other territories. It has since been certified gold in both the United Kingdom and Brazil.
"Sweet Melody" was announced as the album's third single on 19 October, and released on 23 October. An accompanying music video was released the same day as the song's release. The song debuted at number eight on the UK Singles Chart, and peaked at number one three months after its release, becoming the group's fifth chart-topper in the United Kingdom. The song spent thirteen weeks inside the top 10 of the UK Charts, becoming the group's longest running Top 10 single there.
A remix of the album's title track, featuring American rapper Saweetie, was released as the fourth and final single of the album on 30 April, as announced on 21 April. The reworked version does not feature the verse by former member Nelson, as it was the group's first release as a trio, following her departure in 2020. An accompanying music video, directed by Samuel Douek, was released the same day. The song peaked at number nine on the UK Singles Chart and has been certified silver by the BPI. The remix also charted in Belgium, New Zealand and Venezuela.
Promotional singles
Prior to the album's release, three promotional singles were released, all of which had accompanying lyric videos on the group's YouTube channel. On 9 October 2020, "Not a Pop Song" was released as the album's first promotional single. On 16 October 2020, "Happiness" was released as the second promotional single. On 4 November 2020, the title track was released as the third promotional single, before being released as the album's fourth official single.
Live performances
Promotion for Confetti and its singles was limited because of the COVID-19 pandemic. On August 21, 2020, the group first performed "Break Up Song" and "Holiday" for their virtual concert Little Mix - UNCancelled. It was watched by over 300,000 fans and presented by Meerkat Music. They went on to perform an acoustic version of "Holiday" on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge on September 15.
The group later promoted the album and its singles on Little Mix: The Search. The debut performance of "Sweet Melody" took place on the first live show of Little Mix: The Search. Group member Jade Thirlwall was absent on the day of the performance as she was self-isolating as a precaution at the time. Two weeks later, they performed a mashup of "Holiday" and "Touch" on the semi-finals of the same show. It ended up being the last performance that featured all four members, before it was announced that Jesy Nelson would be taking an extended break from the group.
On November 8, the group hosted the 2020 MTV EMAs as a trio, where they performed their single "Sweet Melody". Little Mix continued to promote the album with an appearance and a performance of "Sweet Melody" on The Jonathan Ross Show on 21 November 2020. They later performed "Break Up Song" on the semi-finals of BBC's Strictly Come Dancing on 13 December 2020.
The Confetti Tour
On 17 September 2020, Little Mix announced their seventh tour, The Confetti Tour, originally scheduled to take place from 28 April to 29 May 2021, before being postponed to April and May 2022 due to the UK's coronavirus restrictions as well as Edwards' and Pinnock's respective pregnancies. The tour locations were also announced, with the group scheduled to perform in cities across the UK and Ireland. Tickets were released to the general public on 25 September at 9am BST, with the option of pre-sale tickets given to those who pre-ordered Confetti through the group's official website. The pre-sale tickets were available from 22 to 25 September.
Critical reception
At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has an average score of 74 out of 100, based on ten reviews, indicating "generally favorable reviews" and their highest rated to date. It was also met with universal acclaim from users with a score of 8.9 on the platform. Similarly, review aggregator AnyDecentMusic? rated Confetti 7.1 out of 10. Clashs Megan Walder praised the album's themes of "meta critiques on the music industry and driving forward with their empowering agenda to be every girl's best friend". Walder also felt that "touches of R&B, the nostalgic beats and the impeccable harmonies that the four produce offer comfort with their familiarity and still manage to feel progressive with the 2020 take on these classic elements of an iconic music era", referring to the 2000s as the iconic music era in question. Jenessa Williams of DIY agreed, saying that "Confetti feels like a proper bid for world domination, front-loaded with strong, Americanised R&B." Album tracks "Confetti" and "Rendezvous" drew comparisons to "00s compilation bangers, the sort that demand big-budget music videos that you can act out in your bedroom when no one is watching."
Alexis Petridis from The Guardian awarded the album 3 out 5 stars, saying it sounded "strangely familiar", and "hard pushed to differentiate it from its predecessor [LM5]". Petridis noted that Confetti was a "box-ticking exercise in current pop trends" including '80s inspired synths ("Break Up Song"), reggaeton beats ("Sweet Melody"), post-Daft Punk house ("Holiday"), gospel ("My Love Won't Let You Down") and Europop ("Happiness"). He concluded by saying that Confetti is exactly what you would expect, "a solid mainstream pop album – even when it's claiming that it isn't". Meanwhile The Independents Roisin O'Connor opined that the "group's clear nineties influences mesh wonderfully with contemporary pop production". In the review O'Connor said "Confetti doesn't stray too far from the empowered glam pop that Little Mix have made their forte. Its 13 tracks are a polished mix of flirtatious bops and high-octane tracks that celebrate self-worth... sure, there's nothing groundbreaking to be found here, but it does prove that Little Mix do just fine when they're relying on their own instincts."
The album was called "triumphant" and a "celebration", referencing the group's split with Simon Cowell and their former label Syco Music, by Elisa Bray from iNews. Bray described that Confetti "is the confident album of a group who, approaching 30, have found their voice." Although Steven Loftin from The Line of Best Fit called the album a "stride forward", he said "a little more care in the craft of the big picture wouldn't go a miss". Loftin elaborated that "given the situation, almost freedom, that the assertive group find themselves in, there’s certainly a gap in Confetti that leaves you wishing there was a further step forward into something coherent." Writing for musicOMH, Nick Smith said "Confetti sees Little Mix coming out of the starting blocks power walking. There's nothing really new here". Smith went on to criticise the Auto-tune used on some of the songs but ultimately said "these talented women are now undeniably veterans of kiss-offs and pop bangers with soaring choruses. Confetti is a dependable album with recipe staples, but to keep future interest piqued, something new is now required in the mix." Kate Solomon from The Telegraph agreed with all of the prior critics' sentiments, saying that although the album is "glorious fun" it was nothing "we haven't heard before". Solomon concluded that Confetti continued a trend of "high quality" music, with "consistently attainable style" and "likeable personalities". While The Sunday Times Will Hodgkinson said "Who would have guessed that the girl band would be thriving almost a decade later? Determination has won through and their latest album displays the chemistry and bonhomie that has got them this far." He said that the album sounded familiar, "somewhere between zippy pop and slinky R&B". Jeffrey Davies of PopMatters, went on to call Confetti the group's best work to date, describing it as "entertaining but not over the top and bold but not self-serving". He also added that the album, apart from being bold and grown-up, "is campy and fun in a way that sounds completely natural to the group". Continuing his review, he stated "With this album, Little Mix have captured the best of both worlds: the beloved dance-pop that made them famous with newfound creative freedom and power". Jacklyn Krol of PopCrush stated that the album "packs a perfect flow that takes the listener on a journey of emotions and vibes" and that it "truly feels like a liberation for the group". PopCrush also included the album as one of the "25 Best Albums of 2020".
Year-end lists
Commercial performance
Upon its release, the album received generally positive reviews.
The album peaked at number one on the Irish Albums Charts, becoming Little Mix's third number one album in the country. On the UK Albums Chart, it debuted at number two selling over 49,000 copies in its opening week, 5,000 behind Kylie Minogue's Disco in which several outlets deemed to be a hotly contested chart battle. Confetti had the biggest first-week sales for an album by a British act in 2020, and was the fastest selling album by a British act that year. It also became the group's sixth consecutive top five studio album and since been certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). As of 2022, the album has surpassed over 134,000 million streams in the UK.
Outside of the United Kingdom, the album charted within the top 10 on the Australian, Croatia, Belgian, Portuguese, Dutch, New Zealand, Lithuanian, Spanish, Scottish and Austrian albums charts. It also charted within the top 20 on the German, Polish, and Swiss Albums Chart and charted in 9 other music markets including the United States. In the United States, the album debuted at number eighty-five on the US Billboard 200 chart.
After the release of their sixth album, a trend called #RespectLittleMix went viral on Twitter, accumulating over 200,000 tweets. The trend started after fans started to have frustration towards their American label for failing to promote the group and their albums in the states. There was accusations of no physical copies of the album available for people to purchase in the states. Eventually Leigh-Anne Pinnock's mother also hit out at their US record label Columbia Records, accusing them of failing to promote the album in the US.

Făcăeni is a commune in Ialomița County, Muntenia, Romania. Its population was 5,953 at the 2002 census. The commune is composed of two villages, Făcăeni and Progresu.
Geography
Făcăeni is located near the Borcea branch of the river Danube and the National Road 3 b (DN 3 B). Its neighbored by Vlădeni to the north, Borduşani to the south, Movila to the west and Topalu to the east. It has a ferryboat used by farmers and workers to get from the village to the Balta Ialomiței (the island situated between the Old Danube and Borcea section used exclusively for agriculture). On the bank of the Borcea there is also a small beach where locals come to play football and swim.
History
The village's existence has been documented for more than 500 years, but archaeological discoveries prove that the area has been inhabited since at least the Iron Age. Its name is supposed to come from either the Romanian "făcău", archaism for "mill", or the word "flăcău" meaning young man.
Economy
Făcăeni had and still has a mostly agrarian economy, even though fishing is still an important occupation. Many inhabitants now seek employment in larger cities or even in other countries.
A wind farm was built in 2017, taking advantage of the wind strength that is sometimes damaging to crops.
The village has one school, General School grades I-X, one kindergarten, three Orthodox churches and two Adventist churches.
Făcăeni is known for having been hit by a tornado on 12 August 2002, a phenomenon highly unusual for this geographical area, which destroyed more than 30 households and part of the forest east of the village.

The U.S. Post Office-Milford Main, also known as Milford Main Post Office, is a historic post office building at 6 West River Street in Milford, Connecticut. It is a red brick building, trimmed with limestone, that was designed by James A. Wetmore and completed in 1931. It is a fine local example of Classical Revival design, making a significant contribution to a cluster of civic buildings around a triangular park north of Milford's commercial district. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
Description and history
Milford's main post office occupies a prominent position, facing west toward the city's triangular green on West River Street. The single-story building is a rectangular structure, with a frame of steel and concrete which is faced in red brick and trimmed in limestone. It is covered by a shallow hip roof, which is obscured by a brick parapet above a limestone cornice. The main facade is five bays wide, with the three in the center projecting slightly. The outermost bays have large sash windows, while the outer ones of the projection are topped by half-round windows and have sidelights. The entry is in the center, also topped by a half-rond window, with the doorway framed by round columns and a modest entablature.
The post office was designed in 1929 and completed in 1931. Its design is similar to a period post office in Newburyport, Massachusetts, but it is not known if a local architect was involved in its design. Its design was affected by the terms of the 1926 Public Buildings Act, which dictated economic use of materials and harmonization with surrounding structures, which in this case would have included Milford City Hall (completed in 1919 at the north end of the green), but not the adjacent neoclassical state courthouse (not completed until 1936).
