Distinguish from the road of the same name in Cape Town, South Africa, on the eastern side of Table Mountain.
Southern Cross Drive is a dual carriage untolled motorway in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. Part of the M1 and Sydney Orbital Network, the road, a freeway that opened in 1969, links South Dowling Street (and Eastern Distributor just beyond) at Kensington in the north to General Holmes Drive at Sydney Airport in the south.
Route
Southern Cross Drive commences at the interchange with South Dowling Street (and the southern end of Eastern Distributor, around 500m beyond) and Link Road and heads south as a 6-lane, dual-carriageway road, tracing past the western border of The Australian Golf Club in Kensington and through The Lakes Golf Club in Eastlakes, before turning westwards over Wentworth Avenue towards the eastern boundary of Sydney Airport, where it turns south again to eventually merge with General Holmes Drive.
With the development of many other motorways and freeways, Southern Cross Drive is part of the Sydney Orbital Network, providing links without interruption between Greater Western Sydney, Eastern Suburbs, the North Shore and Hills District. It allows a continuous link from M5 Motorway, General Holmes Drive, Westlink M7, Eastern Distributor, Cahill Expressway, Sydney Harbour Tunnel, Sydney Harbour Bridge, Warringah Freeway, Gore Hill Freeway, Lane Cove Tunnel and M2 Hills Motorway.
In August 2013, the Southern Cross Drive carried about 20,000 vehicles per day, both north and southbound.
South of Wentworth Avenue and north of Botany Road, Southern Cross Drive is elevated above the ARTC Southern Sydney Freight Line.
History
Southern Cross Drive was originally built to provide access to the Sydney central business district for suburbs in Southern Sydney and South-eastern Sydney, and originally terminated at Wentworth Avenue at . The Gardeners Road bridge was completed in 1969, elevated above Southern Cross Drive at Eastlakes.
A road project to extend Southern Cross Drive further south-west as an elevated roadway over Wentworth Avenue, Botany and Mill Pond Roads - and over reclaimed swampland including Mill Pond, Mill Steam, and Botany Dams, much of which has been reclaimed for golf courses (including the Eastlakes Golf Club, The Lakes Golf Club and Bonnie Doon Golf Club) - to connect directly to General Holmes Drive on the eastern border of Sydney Airport, opened in February 1988.
The passing of the Main Roads Act of 1924 through the Parliament of New South Wales provided for the declaration of Main Roads, roads partially funded by the State government through the Main Roads Board (later the Department of Main Roads, and eventually Transport for NSW). With the subsequent passing of the Main Roads (Amendment) Act of 1929 to provide for additional declarations of State Highways and Trunk Roads, the Department of Main Roads (having succeeded the MRB in 1932) extended the southern end of Main Road 593 from its old terminus on South Dowling Street at the intersection with O'Dea and Todman Avneues further along South Dowling Street and along the entire length of Southern Cross Drive on 22 January 1993. Despite its role as a grade-separated expressway, the road is not officially gazetted as one by Transport for NSW classification, and is still considered today to be a main road.
The passing of the Roads Act of 1993 updated road classifications and the way they could be declared within New South Wales. Under this act, Southern Cross Drive retains its declaration as part of Main Road 593.
The route was allocated State Route 64 in 1974; when the Southern Cross Drive extension opened in 1988, it was extended along with it. It was replaced by National Route 1 when the Sydney Harbour Tunnel opened in 1992, then by Metroad 1 in 1993. With the conversion to the newer alphanumeric system in 2013, Metroad 1 was replaced by route M1.
There were plans to construct south-facing ramps from Gardeners Road to Southern Cross Drive, proposed in 2005.

Count Čedomilj Mijatović (; 17 October 1842 – May 14, 1932) was a Serbian statesman, economist, historian, writer and diplomat.
Mijatović served as the Minister of Finance six times between 1873 and 1894 and as the Minister of Foreign Affairs between 1880 and 1881 and again from 1888 to 1889. He was one of the leaders of the liberal Serbian Progressive Party. He also served as the Minister plenipotentiary in Serbia to the Court of St James's (1884–1885; 1895–1900, and 1902/1903), to Romania (1894), and the Ottoman Empire (1900).
Biography
Early life and education
His father Milan (1805–1852) was a lawyer who came to Serbia from the southern part of the Austrian Empire and became a teacher of Latin, history, and geography in Belgrade's First Gymnasium (Grammar School). However, Čedomilj Mijatović was primarily influenced by his mother, Rakila Kristina (1826–1901), who was of mixed Serbian-Spanish origin.
Mijatović studied a combination of economic courses and sciences in Munich, Zurich and Leipzig between 1863 and 1865 and completed his education by gaining experience from the National Bank of Austria and Kredit Anstalt in Vienna. He was a student of Lorenz von Stein and Karl Heinrich Rau and also accepted in his book theses the influences of Frédéric Bastiat and Henry Charles Carey. During his studies in Germany, he met his future British wife Elodie Lawton (1825–1908), previously a dedicated abolitionist in Boston, who influenced him significantly, and turned him into a devoted Anglophile. She was the first English-speaking female historian in Serbia and she published The History of Modern Serbia in 1872. Later she published a collection of Serbian folk short stories and a collection of Serbian epic poems.
At the age of 23, he became a professor at the Belgrade's Grandes écoles, the highest educational institution in Serbia of that age. He taught political economy and wrote three very influential textbooks, two of which were based on Lorenz von Stein. In these works, he demonstrated his affinity for the liberal economy and influenced many later Serbian economists to take similar positions. As a professor, he started campaigning in favor of building a railway through Serbia. He gained many supporters among merchants and educated men for this idea, but many opposed him in Serbia during this campaign. He was also the earliest critic of communist and socialist utopian ideas in Serbia. His translation of Henry Thomas Buckle's book History of Civilisation in England, was published in Serbian in 1871 and influenced several generations of pro-Western Serbs.
Efforts to reform the Serbian Orthodox Church
Miјatović's wife was a member of the Wesleyan Church and was able to imbue her husband with nonconformist religious devotion. However, he always remained faithful to the Serbian Orthodox Church but wanted to bring some religious zeal into it. That was not a very popular task in Serbia of his time. He found a collaborator in this endeavor in the person of a Belgrade priest Aleksa Ilić who established a religious monthly Hrishchanski Vesnik (Christian Messenger, in Serbian Cyrillic: Хришћански весник), the first journal dedicated to a religious revival in Serbia. A Scottish philanthropist Francis Mackenzie who settled in Belgrade helped this project materially and Miјatović remained one of the main contributors of the journal.
He was the most active and influential Serbian translator from English during the 19th century. The bibliography of his translations includes about a dozen titles. Most of them deal with religious topics. That was his effort to contribute to a religious revival. His translations into Serbian include sermons of well-known British preachers such as Dr. Charles Haddon Spurgeon, Canon Henry Parry Liddon and Dr. Macduff. He also translated John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress and Dr. David Brown's Commentaries to the Gospels.
Miјatović as cabinet minister
At the age of thirty-one, he was already Minister of Finance at the end of 1873. He started his career as a protégé of the leader of the subsequent Liberal Party, Jovan Ristić, but soon joined the club of so-called young conservatives who turned into a kind of the personal party of the Serbian ruler, Prince Milan Obrenović (Prince from 1868, and King from 1882 till 1889). In the Government of Jovan Marinović, from November 1873 till December 1874 he was Minister of Finance for the second time and in that capacity, he was instrumental in bringing important reforms. He introduced the metric system to Serbia. Serbia joined the Latin Monetary Union and he christened the new domestic currency, the dinar, after Serbia's medieval silver currency. He always considered his most important achievement in this government the law stipulating the amount of property that had to be left to peasants, and could not be confiscated to cover their debts. This minimal amount included peasant's house, a yoke of oxen, the plow, and five acres of land. He was elected for the third time as Minister of Finance in the Government of Danilo Stefanović in 1875. Mijatović along with Dimitrije Matić, Konstantin Cukić, Mihailo Vujić and a couple of others were among the top economists of the last decade of the Constitutionalist period.
The group of young conservatives he joined established the newspaper Videlo and soon came to power in October 1880. In the Government of Milan Piroćanac, Mijatović got two tenures. He was Minister of Foreign Affairs for the fourth time and Minister of Finance. Being a close friend of the ruler and in control of the two key ministries, he was considered by many diplomats as the most influential person of this Cabinet. Prince Milan used him for the most significant missions. The two decisions that shaped Serbia's history for many years were carried out by Mijatović.
When modern political parties were created in Serbia, in 1881, the Progressive Party turned out to be the only of the three Serbian parties (the other two being the mostly pro-Russian Liberal Party and very pro-Russian Radical Party) that was ready to make an agreement with Austria-Hungary, which became the most influential country in Serbia after the Congress of Berlin in 1878. The ruler decided to open a new page in Serbian foreign policy and arranged that a secret convention should be signed with the Habsburg monarchy. Mijatović was gradually entrusted by the ruler to complete this task and on June 28, 1881, he signed the Secret Convention by which Serbia got the diplomatic and political backing of the Habsburg Empire but abandoned her independence in the field of Foreign Policy. When the two other most prominent members of the Cabinet, Prime Minister Piroćanac and Home Minister Garašanin learned about the exact contents of the Convention they decided to resign but had to accept the new reality in the end. In return, Mijatović had to resign his post as Minister of Foreign Affairs and kept only his tenure at the Ministry of Finance. His last act as Minister of Foreign Affairs was to sign a Consular Convention and a Commercial Agreement with the United States of America on October 14. 1881. During talks that preceded the signing of the Secret Convention Mijatović was well received in Vienna by the Emperor Francis Joseph and other dignitaries of the Empire. The Emperor later decorated him with the first class of the Order of the Iron Crown, which entitled its bearer to become an Austro-Hungarian count. Serbian citizens were banned by the Serbian constitution to accept any nobility titles. It is not clear if Mijatović ever officially submitted an application to become an Austro-Hungarian count, yet he used this title openly since 1915, being the only Serb from the Kingdom of Serbia who did it.
Affair with Union Général
As the Minister of Finance Mijatović had to secure Serbia's commitments from the Berlin Treaty by which she undertook to build the part of the Vienna-Constantinople railway line that went through Serbia. Since Serbia could not finance the project herself a proper foreign creditor had to be found and a Parisian financial society called Union Général was selected in 1881. Unfortunately, it faced bankruptcy as soon as the beginning of 1882, which brought the already shaky state of Serbian finances very close to complete disaster. Learning of the bankruptcy Mijatović urgently traveled to Paris and there supported by Austro-Hungarian diplomacy found a way out. Another financial house Comptoir national d'escompte de Paris (CNEP) took on the projects without detriment to Serbia. In spite of this success, the reputation of Mijatović's party suffered a serious blow and never recovered. It turned out that the agents of the Union Général in Belgrade had tried to bribe many MPs and politicians and the reputation of the Progressivists suffered the most from this. He took personal part in preparing a law on the establishment of the National Bank of Serbia that was passed by the Serbian Parliament in January 1883. He advocated the establishment of such an institution long before and had an opportunity to establish it during his tenure. The Government of the Progressivists resigned in October 1883.
Negotiator of the Peace Treaty at Bucharest
Being a lonely Serbian Anglophile Mijatović wished to be appointed as the first Serbian Minister in London, but had to wait until October 1884 when he became the second Serbian Minister at the Court of St James's. During this tenure, he came into contact with many influential persons but his diplomatic post in London soon ended since he was appointed to be the sole Serbian negotiator in Bucharest where peace negotiations were scheduled following the Serbo-Bulgarian War. Serbia attacked Bulgaria on November 14, 1885, and within two weeks suffered a humiliating defeat. It was thanks to the Secret Convention signed with Austria-Hungary that Serbia was able to get out of the war without suffering more serious consequences. In Bucharest Mijatović and the Bulgarian representative Ivan Evstratiev Geshov concluded, on March 3, 1886, one of the shortest treaties in diplomatic history with one article only: Article seul et unique. – L’état de paix qui a cessé d’exister entre le Royaume de Serbie et la Principauté du Bulgarie le 2–14 Novembre, 1885, est rétabli à partir de l’échange de ratification du present traité qui aura lieu à Bucharest. Mijatović proved to be a peacemaker since he had ignored instructions from Belgrade that were prepared in such a way that he was supposed to find an excuse for a new war. Apparently, Mijatović was more worried about what sort of reputation he would have in England if negotiations failed than about criticism from Belgrade for his conciliatory approach.
First self exile to London
Having returned from Bucharest Mijatović became for the fifth time Finance Minister in the Government of Milutin Garašanin in 1886/1887. Finally, in 1887/1889 he was for the second time Foreign Minister in the Government of Nikola Hristić (Hristić). In this capacity, he signed a renewal of the Secret Convention. However, the decision of King Milan to abdicate on March 6, 1889, effectively ended his special position at the Court. The new government encouraged persecution of the members of the Progressive Party. Faced with all these failures he decided to leave Serbia and withdrew to Britain in September 1889.
He found refuge in London where he spent years between 1889 and 1894 and was committed to writing novels in Serbian based on gothic novels of Sir Walter Scott and historical works. Novels that he wrote in these years made him perhaps the most popular Serbian writer of his age. He added to his fame by publishing a book entitled On Conditions for Success [О условима успеха/O uslovima uspeha] in 1892 based on Samuel Smiles' bestseller Self-Help. In Britain, he became well known when he published a book on the last Byzantine Emperor. Owing to this book he was elected to be an honorary member of the Royal Historical Society, being the first Serb to attain such a distinction. Sometime earlier he had become the second President of the Serbian Royal Academy, in 1888, but he resigned this post in 1889. It was in London, where Mijatović obtained introductions to the most celebrated writers in Britain and became a contributor to the Encyclopædia Britannica.
Diplomatic career
In 1894 he returned from his self-exile to become Minister of Finance for the sixth and last time, but his tenure ended with the resignation of the whole Government after only two months in April 1894. He spent the rest of that year as a Serbian Minister in Bucharest but was recalled at the end of 1894. In April 1895 he got his favorite appointment. He became for the second time Serbian Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary at the Court of St James's and kept this position until 1900. During this mandate he represented Serbia at the Hague Peace Conference in May–July 1899 where he advocated very progressive views, but both Aleksandar Obrenović and the Serbian Government did not share his enthusiasm for the instruments of international law and international arbitration. In 1900 he was put in the most important diplomatic place for Serbia. He became Serbian Minister in Constantinople but was recalled since he did not agree with the marriage of the Serbian King Alexander with a lady who was a commoner and a widow. He became a Serbian senator in 1901 and stayed in London trying to establish a Serbian Commercial Agency. At the end of 1902, he was appointed for the third time to be Serbian Minister in London, and he presented his credentials to King Edward VII in January 1903.
In the early morning of June 11, 1903, a conspiracy of Serbian officers killed King Alexander Obrenović and his unpopular wife Queen Draga. Having murdered them they threw their naked bodies out of a window. The new government consisted of regicides and it appointed Petar Karađorđević to be the new ruler of Serbia. The very event and composition of the new Cabinet caused widespread condemnation throughout Europe but only Britain and the Netherlands decided to break off diplomatic relations with Serbia. Mijatović was himself horrified and he was the only Serbian diplomat who resigned his post on June 22. This act was never forgiven to him by influential political circles in Belgrade.
Mijatović's name became known around the world thanks to a clairvoyant session that he attended together with a famous Victorian journalist William Thomas Stead. The result of the clairvoyant session that took place on the night of March 20, 1903, in Stead's opinion was that 'the bloody tragedy in the palace was seen clairvoyantly three months before it took place, and described in the hearing of at least a dozen credible witnesses'. Almost all the British dailies, as well as the American and continental press, commented on the prophecy. Later he was very much influenced by Stead and became a leading Serbian adherent of spiritism.
After the May Coup Mijatović stayed in London until the end of his life, though he tendered his resignation when the new Serbian government was formed in 1903. Mijatović was replaced by diplomat Aleksandar Jovičić (1856-1934). In 1908 he published his most popular book in English that went through three British and three American editions entitled Servia and the Servians. His reputation in Serbia after 1903 suffered greatly due to false rumors that he was implicated in a conspiracy to bring Prince Arthur, Duke of Connaught and Strathearn, beloved son of Queen Victoria, to the throne of Serbia. In 1911 he met King Peter Karageorgević in Paris and from this moment he was fully reconciled with the new regime in Serbia. Therefore, it is not surprising that he was considered as an unofficial member of the Serbian delegation in London during the London Conference in December 1912. Being a widower from 1908 he was considered as a favorite candidate of both the Serbian Government and the King to become the Archbishop of Skopje, which had two years earlier been incorporated to the Serbian state. But these efforts failed.
He became very active again at the beginning of the First World War. He wrote many letters and articles to British dailies but his most remarkable action in this field was his visit to the United States and Canada. He was accompanied by the most famous British suffragette, Emmeline Pankhurst, who championed the causes of Britain's small allies (Belgium and Serbia) during World War I. A visit to the United States of America and Canada with such a well-known person caused such a sensation, brought crowds to Mijatović's lectures and enabled him to have well-attended lectures and to give interviews to the leading dailies.
He died in London on May 14, 1932.
He was awarded Order of the White Eagle, Legion of Honour, Order of the Cross of Takovo and a number of other decorations.
Works in English
He published 19 books in Serbian, and 6 books in English: Constantine, the Last Emperor of the Greeks or the Conquest of Constantinople by the Turks (A.D. 1453), the first Serbian contribution to Byzantine history in English; after the Latest Historical Researches (London: Sampson Low, Marston & Company, 1892); Ancestors of the House of Orange (1892); A Royal Tragedy. Being the Story of the Assassination of King Alexander and Queen Draga of Servia (London: Eveleigh Nash, 1906); Servia and the Servians (London: Sir Isaac Pitman & Sons, 1908); Sir Donald Mackenzie Wallace, Prince Kropotkin, C. Mijatović, J. D. Bourchier, A Short History of Russia and the Balkan States (London: The Encyclopædia Britannica Company, 1914), and The Memoirs of a Balkan Diplomatist (London, New York, Toronto and Melbourne: Cassel and Co., 1917).
His book Servia and the Servians together with his entries on Serbia in the Tenth and Eleventh editions of the Encyclopædia Britannica served a very important purpose of offering a favourable view of Serbia to the Anglo-American public at the beginning of the twentieth century in a very turbulent and decisive period for Serbia. He was arguably among the first Serbs to contribute to the Encyclopædia Britannica and some of his entries were reproduced up until 1973. The other was Prince Bojidar Karageorgevitch.
Assessment
His long life in Britain made him a cultural bridge between the two nations. His role in British-Serbian relations is unmatched in terms of his influence on mutual relations. Many British Balkan experts were aware of this and had a very high opinion of Mijatović. James David Bourchier, a correspondent of The Times, remarked that "he is generally regarded by his fellow countrymen as the most learned man in Servia." William T. Stead, who met him during the Peace Conference in The Hague, was so delighted with him that he wrote: “It was almost worthwhile creating the Kingdom Servia if only to qualify Čedomilj Mijatovitch for a seat in the Parliament of the Nations.” Stead also had such a high opinion of Mijatović as a diplomat that in 1903 he remarked: “He is far and away from the best known, the most distinguished, and the most respected diplomatist the Balkan Peninsula has yet produced.” The leading British daily The Times covered almost every step Mijatović took during the eighties, especially through its Vienna correspondents. There are almost 300 contemporary articles of The Times mentioning Mijatović. At no time before had any Serbian minister, or any Serb at all, enjoyed such sympathies from The Times as did Mijatović in the last two decades of the nineteenth century. When he resigned his tenure as the President of the Serbian Royal Academy The Times commented: “Of all the statesmen in Servia, M. Mijatovitch is probably the one who holds the highest character in foreign countries. He has filled the principal offices in Servia, not only those that are rewarded for party services, by those conferred by public consent, if not by public acclamation, on men whose abilities are not judged by mere party conflicts.” Mijatović is considered to be the leading Serbian Liberal politician, alongside Slobodan Jovanović.
His whole working life was strongly influenced by the culture of Victorian Britain. In introducing Gothic novels into Serbian literature he was influenced by Sir Walter Scott. The inspiration for his religious pieces originated from Charles Haddon Spurgeon and Cannon Henry Parry Liddon. Even his policy was inspired by British statesmen, especially by William Ewart Gladstone and Lord Salisbury. In Britain, he became familiar with spiritualism, a widespread habit during the Victorian era. Through the influence of William Thomas Stead and Sir Oliver Lodge he gradually became an ardent believer in spiritualism and supernatural phenomena. Another British influence came in the field of parliamentarians. Mijatović wished to copy British budgetary debates but the Serbian parliament consisting mostly of peasant MPs did not quite understand this effort. Finally, he wanted to transmit a Protestant vision of ethics of labor and capital as formulated in bestsellers of Samuel Smiles and in the works of some Presbyterians. For this reason, he was called in a biography published on him in Serbian "a Victorian among Serbs".

BASIC 1.0 is the standard BASIC language for Thomson computers (MO5, TO7, etc.), which is the reference for the entire range. This is an implementation of Microsoft BASIC (BASIC-69).
It was used to introduce children from France to programming in the 1980s (see Computing for All, a 1985 French government plan to introduce computers to the country's 11 million pupils). Three languages were mainly taught: LSE, BASIC and LOGO. School textbooks programs were given in BASIC 1.0 for Thomson and sometimes in ExelBasic for the Exelvision EXL 100.
The first version came with the TO7 computer, released in 1982. On the MO5 (released in 1984 but with smaller ROM), the instruction set is reduced and the double precision is not implemented, so that the interpreter fits in only 12 KB of ROM, instead of 16 KB on the TO7.
An upgraded version was produced under the name of BASIC 128, for the TO7-70, TO9, MO5NR and MO6. It included commands for disc operations and other new instructions.
On the TO8/8D and TO9+, an even more upgraded version under the name of BASIC 512 was provided.
Keywords
BASIC 1.0 interpreter recognizes the usual commands such as FOR..NEXT, GOSUB..RETURN, IF..THEN..ELSE, and DATA / READ / RESTORE statements.
Advanced instructions like ON..GOTO and ON..GOSUB were also possible.

The Austral Wheel Race is the oldest track bicycle race in the world still existing, stretching back to 1887. It is owned and run by AusCycling Victoria. The Austral race is Australia’s greatest track cycling event. It is held in Melbourne, riders assigned handicaps according to ability over a series of heats. The finals are run over 2000m.
The races in 2004 and 2005 were at John Cain Arena in February. The first race in 1887 held at Melbourne Cricket Ground over 3 miles (4800m), with first prize of a grand piano valued at 200 pounds. Other venues in Melbourne to host the race include the Exhibition Track, the North Essendon board track, the Olympic Park Velodrome and the Brunswick, Coburg and Northcote velodromes.
Malvern Star, a brand in bicycles in Australia, had its origins in the race. In December 1898 a young bicycle mechanic and professional cyclist, Tom Finnigan, won from a handicap of holding off backmarkers with a foot to spare. The prize of 240 sovereigns let him establish a suburban bicycle shop, Malvern Star Cycles, which became a household name under Bruce Small.
Corruption tinged the event in 1901 when the American, Bill Martin, won from scratch, to allegations of fixing by John Wren. According to The Age in 1903 referring to 1902 "one of the judges appointed to officiate at the Austral Wheel meeting was called upon to resign, because he had a monetary interest in the result of the Austral Wheel Race."
In December 2019 Kelland O'Brien won from scratch in a time of 1min 58.44 sec, an average of 60.81 km/h at Hisense Arena.
Prize money
Prize money has varied, following the fashion for cycling, from a grand piano to monetary prizes of 240 sovereigns in 1898, 450 sovereigns in 1902, to a low of $1500 during the 1970s, increasing to $5,000 in 1982, and now exceeding $18,000 since 2000.
Past winners
Past competitors include distinguished Australian and international cyclists, including Gordon Johnson, Steele Bishop, Sid Patterson, Russell Mockridge, Danny Clarke, Brett Aitken, Gary Neiwand and Shane Kelly. The record for the most wins belongs to Victorian Stephen Pate with four victories: in 1988 from scratch, in 1991 from minus 10m, in 1993 from minus 20m and 1999 from scratch.
In 2000, Neiwand was handicapped on 70m for the millennium edition and won comfortably.

Émile-Eugène-Aldric Topsent (10 February 1862 – 22 September 1951) was a French zoologist known for his research of sponges. He was born in Le Havre.
During his career he worked in several laboratories and institutes in western France. From 1919 to 1927 he was curator at the zoological museum in Strasbourg. In 1920 he was appointed chair of the Société zoologique de France.
Topsent described the Atlantic and Mediterranean sponge collections of Prince Albert I of Monaco in three volumes (1892, 1927 & 1928). He named numerous taxa new to science, and his work is considered to be the basis for the modern classification system of Porifera. One of his descriptions involved the hexactinellid sponge Scolymastra joubini, a creature from Antarctic waters that is believed to have a lifespan of 10,000 years.

Aggregator AnyDecentMusic? gave it 6.9 out of 10, based on their assessment of the critical consensus.
Danny Wright of NME gave the album a positive review, saying "he's able to skillfully cherry pick from different genres[, ...] But Post Malone is the post everything star the kids have called for, a musician made for the internet-age; a goofball chameleon instinctively skilled at understanding the ways genres can merge together. These are albums made as playlists that skip seamlessly between styles". Reviewing the album for Variety, A. D. Amorosi said the album was a blend of "country, rock, hip-hop and modern soft soul" and that Malone gives the album a "refined trap-pop vibe". Neil Z. Yeung of AllMusic saying "More well-executed than his previous releases and undeniably catchy, Hollywood's Bleeding is a huge step forward for the guarded superstar, one that doesn't sacrifice the essential elements that made him such a surprise hitmaker, and pushes him even further into the pop-savvy landscape where he belongs". Writing for Los Angeles Times, Mikael Wood stated, "Unlike Stoney and Beerbongs & Bentleys, this album feels composed of discrete stylistic exercises; no longer is he boiling down rap and rock and a little bit of country into a kind of smearable paste". Rolling Stones critic Nick Catucci said, "Post Malone curates as much as he creates, and there's not a misplaced feature among the 10 spread across seven of these tracks".
Dan Weiss of Consequence wrote, "Hollywood's Bleeding is immediately Post Malone's most listenable work and may well be the catchiest album you hear in 2019, and that includes Taylor Swift". Daniel Spielberger of HipHopDX said, "Besides a few questionable features, there's nothing offensive or particularly bad about Hollywood's Bleeding. It's just Malone playing it safe and betting on the likelihood that the streaming algorithms will reward him once again". Jason Greene from Pitchfork stated, "When he's not wasting time trying to glower, he proves himself surprisingly versatile. ... There are a lot of guests on Hollywood's Bleeding, and all of them sound engaged".

The marching arts are a collection of fine arts related activities that are closely associated with wind music. The marching arts include, but are not necessarily limited to marching band, drum corps, pep band, color guard, winter guard, and indoor percussion. All of these activities are supported at both the high school and collegiate levels.
Although marching and pep bands initially existed to fill the role of halftime entertainment at football games, the modern marching arts, while maintaining their enduring traditions, have grown into stand-alone activities. The marching arts often participate in competitive events with panels of adjudicators assessing the groups on a number of captions. Some of the captions often assessed in competition are: music performance (ensemble), music performance (individual), music effect, visual performance, visual effect, general effect, color guard, percussion, brass, woodwinds, and drum majors, among others.
A lot of school districts will base their entire assessment of the music department on how well their marching band performs. However, in order to be an effective music educational too, the focus must be on music. One must carefully consider the music the ensemble is going to perform in the same manner as choosing for a concert band. David Whitwell (orchestra conductor) states “The coordination and harmonious agreement of the auditory and visual elements inherent in a marching band performance which is experienced both intellectually and emotionally.” Marching band can help a student/individual gain certain worldly skills. These skills include, but are not limited to, determination, leadership skills, developing an awareness of music in its social context, flexibility and originality, and becoming aware of musical systems in other cultures.

The Battle of Satala was fought between the forces of the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire and the Sassanid (Persian) Empire in summer 530, near Satala in Byzantine Armenia. The Persian army approached the city to lay siege, when it was attacked in the rear by a small Byzantine force. The Persians turned back to meet them, but were then attacked by the main army from inside the city. A determined attack by a Byzantine unit led to the loss of the Persian general's flag, causing the panicking Persians to retreat.
Background
In spring 530, the Persian attack in Mesopotamia met with defeat at the Battle of Dara. At the same time, however, the Persians had gained ground in the Caucasus, having subdued Iberia and invaded Lazica. The Persian shah, Kavadh I (r. 488–531), decided to take advantage of this and sent an army into Byzantium's Armenian provinces. For this task, he chose the general Mihr-Mihroe (Mermeroes).
Mihr-Mihroe began assembling his forces near the Byzantine border fortress of Theodosiopolis (Erzurum). According to Procopius, his army composed mostly of levies from Persian-ruled Armenia and Sunitae from the northern Caucasus, as well as 3,000 Sabirs. The Byzantine commanders were Sittas, who had just been promoted from magister militum per Armeniam to magister militum praesentalis, and his successor in the former post, Dorotheus. As soon as news of the ongoing Persian preparations reached them, they sent two of their guards to spy on them. One was captured, but the other returned with information that allowed the Byzantines to launch a surprise attack the Persian camp. The Persian army scattered with some loss, and after looting their camp, the Byzantines returned to their base.
Battle
Once Mihr-Mihroe had finished assembling his army, however, he invaded Byzantine territory. Bypassing Theodosiopolis, he headed for Satala, and set up his camp some distance from the city walls. The Byzantine forces, about half as strong as the Persians according to Procopius, did not engage him. Sittas, with a thousand men, occupied the hills around the city, while the bulk of the Byzantine army remained with Dorotheus inside the walls.
On the next day, the Persians advanced and began to surround the city, preparing for a siege. At this point, Sittas with his detachment sallied forth from the hills. The Persians, seeing them raising much dust and thinking that they were the main Byzantine army, quickly gathered their forces and turned to meet them. Dorotheus then led his own men to attack the Persian rear. Despite their bad tactical position, facing attack from both front and rear, the Persian army resisted effectively, due to its greater numbers. At one point, however, a Byzantine commander, Florentius the Thracian, charged his unit into the Persian centre and managed to capture Mihr-Mihroe's battle standard. Although he was killed soon after, the loss of the flag caused fear among the Persian ranks. Their army began to retreat to their camp, abandoning the battlefield.
Aftermath
The next day, the Persians departed and returned to Persian Armenia, unmolested by the Byzantines, who were satisfied with their victory over a far larger force. This victory was a major success for Byzantium, and was followed by the defections of a number of Armenian chieftains to the Empire (the brothers Narses, Aratius, and Isaac), as well as by the capture or surrender of a number of important fortresses, like Bolum and Pharangium. Negotiations between Persia and Byzantium also resumed after the battle, but they led nowhere, and in spring 531 war resumed, with the campaign that led to the Battle of Callinicum.

The 2018 EFL Cup Final (also known as the 2018 Carabao Cup Final for sponsorship reasons) was the final association football match of the 2017–18 EFL Cup that took place on 25 February 2018 at Wembley Stadium. It was the first League Cup final contested under the "Carabao Cup" name following the sponsorship of Carabao Energy Drink. It was contested between Manchester City and Arsenal, and won 3–0 by Manchester City. They would have entered the second qualifying round of the 2018–19 UEFA Europa League, but instead qualified directly for the 2018–19 UEFA Champions League by finishing first in the 2017–18 Premier League.
The match was Manchester City's sixth League Cup Final, and their third in five seasons – qualification for the final also marked the first time Pep Guardiola reached a final with Manchester City. For Arsenal, the final was their eighth total in the competition, and their third of Arsène Wenger's managerial reign.
Route to the final
The EFL Cup is a cup competition open to clubs in the Premier League and English Football League. It is played on a knockout basis, with the exception of the semi-finals, which are contested over a two-legged tie.
Manchester City
Manchester City, a Premier League club involved in the UEFA Champions League, started their League Cup campaign in the third round, where they had been drawn away to fellow divisional opponents West Bromwich Albion. At The Hawthorns, winger Leroy Sané scored twice to give City a 2–1 victory. In the fourth round they faced Championship side Wolverhampton Wanderers at home. The visitors defended well and became the first team to keep a clean sheet against the Premier League leaders. Neither side scored after normal and extra time meaning the tie was decided by a penalty shoot-out. City progressed as 4–1 winners.
For the quarter-finals, Manchester City were drawn away to Leicester City at the King Power Stadium. Midfielder Bernardo Silva scored for the visitors, but deep into added time, striker Jamie Vardy equalised for Leicester from the penalty spot. The game finished 1–1 and much like the previous round City needed penalties to progress, winning the shoot-out 4–3. The semi-final pitted Manchester City against Championship side Bristol City. The first leg played at the Etihad Stadium saw the visitors take the lead towards the end of the first half, having been awarded a penalty that Bobby Reid converted. Kevin De Bruyne equalised for Manchester City and in injury time his teammate Sergio Agüero scored the winner to put the team firmly in control of the tie. Bristol City scored twice at Ashton Gate in the return leg, but Manchester City progressed to the final having won by three goals and recording a 5–3 aggregate score.
Arsenal
Arsenal, like Manchester City were involved in Europe (UEFA Europa League and entered the League Cup in the third round. They were drawn at home against Football League One side Doncaster Rovers. At the Emirates Stadium, Theo Walcott's goal in the 25th minute was enough to settle the outcome in favour of Arsenal. In the next round they faced Championship club Norwich City at home. Arsenal progressed with a 2–1 win after extra time after Eddie Nketiah was brought on as a substitute and scored his first two goals for the club.
Arsenal played against West Ham United in the quarter-finals, where at home they won 1–0 thanks to a goal from Danny Welbeck. The semi-finals pitted Arsenal against London rivals Chelsea. After a goalless first leg at Stamford Bridge, Arsenal progressed to the final after a 2–1 win at the Emirates Stadium due to an own goal from Chelsea's Antonio Rüdiger and a goal from Granit Xhaka. As a result, Arsenal reached the final without leaving London as four of their five games were at home, with the away leg of the semi-final being played in London. Their tally of six goals on their way to the final represented the lowest goal-tally of any side to reach a League Cup final.
Match
Summary
In the 18th minute of the match Sergio Agüero opened the scoring when he ran in on goal and lobbed the ball over the advancing goalkeeper David Ospina with his right foot from the edge of the penalty area after an initial clash with Arsenal defender Shkodran Mustafi who appealed for a foul.
Vincent Kompany got the second in the 58th minute. A corner from the right by Kevin De Bruyne found İlkay Gündoğan on the edge of the penalty area, and his low shot was diverted into the net by Kompany with his left leg from seven yards out. David Silva got the third in the 65th minute when he shot low across and past the goalkeeper with his left foot from inside the left of the penalty area from seven yards out.

Eryx is a French short-range portable semi-automatic command to line of sight (SACLOS) based wire-guided anti-tank missile (ATGM) manufactured by MBDA France and by MKEK under licence. The weapon can also be used against larger bunkers and smaller pillboxes. It also has some anti-aircraft warfare ability, to bring down low flying helicopters, due to its wire-guidance system. An agreement was reached in 1989 between the French and Canadian governments to coproduce the Eryx missile system.
It entered French service in 1994 and will be replaced by the upcoming AT4 F2.
Development
The Eryx began as a project in the late 1970s by the French Ministry of defense to replace the short range Luchaire's LRAC F1 STRIM 89mm rocket launcher in the French Army. The requirement was for a cost-effective antitank weapon that could defeat any known or future main battle tank at a maximum range of 600 meters with considerable accuracy, including on windy days. Aérospatiale, the French defense and aerospace firm, believed it was, from a practical standpoint, impossible to design an unguided antitank rocket that could meet the strict requirements. The weapon system that Aérospatiale offered was basically a mini-short range wire guided antitank missile, the ACCP (Anti Char Courte Portée) which in French translates to Short Range Anti-tank Weapon System. The first prototype was delivered to the French Ministry of Defense for testing in 1982. The concept firing post (See: ACCP image) used a scaled-down version of the MILAN tracking and guidance system, but was found in field condition tests to be impractical both from a technical and cost standpoint.
In 1989, France and Canada signed a joint venture to co-produce the ERYX missile. AlliedSignal Aerospace Canada Inc. developed the Mirabel thermal imager for the ERYX firing post. Canadian industries, including Simtran and Solartron Systems, also produced the Eryx Interactive Gunnery Simulator (EVIGS) and the Eryx Precision Gunnery Simulator (EPGS).
Enhanced Eryx
MBDA approached the Canadian government twice, once in 2005, and again in 2006, with a proposal to develop an improved version of the Eryx which would see an improved range, sight, and anti-armour capabilities as a way of extending the Eryx's service life. The Canadian government opted not to participate in the improvement program because it did not meet the new requirements of the Canadian Forces, and conflicted with an ongoing replacement project. In 2007 MBDA provided funding for the development of an enhanced Eryx system. The new system features a new, non-cooled thermal sight which uses a bolometric sensor. MBDA asserts that the new sight is quieter, reduces weight, increases battery life, and provides a detection range greater than the missile's own maximum range. The enhanced Eryx also includes a new training simulator. The system was demonstrated for a potential Middle Eastern customer in October 2009.
Description
The missile is ejected from its launch tube using a very low powered short burn rocket motor located in the tail. The launching motor completes its burn before leaving the container, protecting the gunner from being burned. After the missile coasts a safe distance the main sustainer motor ignites and burns until impacting the target or it reaches its maximum range of 600 meters. The main rocket motor is located at mid-body with two exhausts in the side (e.g. similar to the US BGM-71 TOW antitank missile). Unlike most wire guided antitank missiles the Eryx is propelled at a relative low speed of approximately 240 meters per second at its maximum range. The missile is guided in flight by two vanes located at mid body which act against the main rocket motors thrust. As the missile slowly rotates the launch units send signals commanding the correction by one of the two vanes to move against the missile motors thrust. For example, if the missile has to move to the left, the right thrust vector vane will actuate at the correct time. In addition the "soft launch" is what enables the Eryx to be fired from confined spaces (e.g. buildings) and not cause a massive launch signature that will reveal the Eryx gunners position to hostile counter fire. Aérospatiale claims that this "soft launch" feature enables the Eryx antitank team to be used effectively in urban antitank warfare.
The Eryx missile uses a SACLOS guidance system, the launcher tracks a light source on the rear of the missile and compares its position with the center of the launcher's cross-hair, sending corrective signals down a trailing control wire. The missile increases resistance to jamming by having a beacon as the light source on the rear of the missile that pulsates or blinks at a special encoded rate recognized by the Eryx's tracking device located on the launch post. Unlike most wire guides antitank missiles that use SACLOS guidance, which require a complex optical tracker unit that has to zoom from a wide to narrow view in microseconds after the missile is launched (e.g. the MILAN), the Eryx uses one charge-coupled device (CCD) matrix that operate in the IR spectrum, and two fields of view (one narrow and one large) with an automatic switch during missile flight. Again Aérospatiale also states that this unique and simplified SACLOS tracking system provides for a far more cost-effective solution and enable the Eryx to be highly resistant to decoys or jamming and other enemy countermeasures.
The missile uses a tandem-charge high-explosive anti-tank (HEAT) warhead to defeat explosive reactive armour (ERA) fitted to many armored vehicles today; a much smaller-diameter warhead at the front of the missile body and a larger main warhead at the rear. Locating the main warhead at the rear of the missile body provides the correct stand-off distance needed for the optimum effectiveness of the warhead without the need of a complex collapsible nose probe (e.g. the TOW), which is standard on most antitank missiles today. This simple solution keeps the missile's cost extremely low when compared to other antitank missiles but also for a compact missile design that can be produced in mass quantities.
Dispute with MBDA and Turkey
In 1998 the Turkish government signed a contract with MBDA to replace the Turkish Armed Forces' aging rocket launchers and RPG-7s. The deal, worth approximately €404 million, would see the licensed production of 1,600 Eryx launchers, and 20,000 missiles in Turkey. The project encountered setbacks after the Turkish Army claimed that missile failed to meet accuracy requirements of a 72 percent hit rate; this claim is "unofficially" rejected by MBDA. The poor performance was attributed to technical difficulties, and later corrected by MBDA. In 2004 the Turkish Undersecretariat for Defense Industries (SSM) canceled the contract citing MBDA's failure to meet the terms of the agreement in a timely manner, and MBDA was blacklisted in Turkey. MBDA, in turn, stated that the reason for cancellation was an excuse, and that the systems were simply no longer needed. This is likely based on the 2004 decision by the Turkish Armed Forces to disband four army brigades, and downsize remaining army units, thereby decreasing the requirement for new anti-armor systems. According to MBDA, the ERYX is still in service though with the Turkish Army. The blacklisting has been attributed to a largescale souring of Franco-Turkish relations. According to report by Undersecretariat for Defense Industries of Turkey, MBDA and Turkey signed a memorandum of understanding on to acquire 632 Eryx launchers, 3920 missiles and modification systems for a total package of 404m €.
Combat service
With production having begun in 1994, the Eryx had remained untested in live combat until in 2008. While having no notable experience, the Eryx has seen deployment in Afghanistan and UN peace-keeping operations. The Canadian Forces have deployed Eryx to Afghanistan but except for the Mirabel thermal imager, the Eryx missile has never been used in operations. French forces fired the Eryx in Afghanistan, for instance during the battle of Alasay in 2009. In early 2013, pictures emerged of the Eryx being used during the French Army operations in Mali. The Eryx was also fired during Operation Sangaris in Central African Republic in 2013.
During Yemeni Civil War, Eryx has been used by Saudi forces against Houthis.

Caryl E. Rusbult was a professor and chair of the Department of Social and Organizational Psychology at the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, Netherlands. She died from uterine cancer on January 27, 2010. Rusbult received her B.A. in Sociology from UCLA (1974) and Ph.D. in Psychology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (1978). During her time as a professor at Chapel Hill (1986–2004) she made seminal contributions to theoretical social psychology including the investment model of commitment processes, a theoretical model of accommodation processes, and the Michelangelo effect.
Rusbult’s Investment Model of Commitment Processes is one of the most well-known and influential theoretical frameworks in the area of close relationships. This model explains how committed partners maintain and promote their relationships by transforming personal motives to take into account the necessity of coordinating and getting along with partners.
Rusbult served as an Associate Editor for the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology (1990 to 1994) and the Encyclopedia of Psychology (1996 to 2000), and was elected to the boards of several national and international organizations (e.g., Society of Experimental Social Psychologists, International Society for the Study of Personal Relationships).
The Caryl E. Rusbult Young Investigator Award has been created in her memory.

Magnolia Manor is a historic house on Apple Blossom Drive in Arkadelphia, Arkansas. The two story wood-frame house was built in 1854–57, and is a fine local example of Greek Revival and some Italianate styling. The house features corner pilasters, a broad eave with brackets, and a main entry on its eastern facade sheltered by a single-story porch with deck above. A secondary entry on the south side is similarly styled. The house was built by a South Carolina plantation owner, and has been owned by two state senators, Fletcher McElhannon and Olen Hendrix. The manor's lands once extended all the way to Arkansas Highway 51.

Marcel Romanescu (October 11, 1897–1956) was a Romanian poet.
Born in Liège, he attended primary school in Paris and Craiova; he went to high schools in Craiova, Turnu Severin, Iași and at Dealu Monastery. In 1920, he obtained a degree in law and philosophy from the University of Bucharest. He served as attaché to the legation at the Vatican from 1921 to 1923, and was legation secretary at Warsaw (1923-1925) and at The Hague from 1925. He headed România magazine at Rome in 1921, and Flamura at Craiova from 1926 to 1929. From 1915, he published in the Bucharest-based Flacăra, subsequently contributing to Viața literară și artistică (at Craiova), Ramuri, Lumină nouă, Solia, România de mâine, Zorile, Glasul Bucovinei, Sburătorul, Adevărul literar și artistic, Convorbiri Literare, Gândirea, Mișcarea literară and Universul literar. His first book, the 1923 Isvoare limpezi, was billed as including "sonnets and poems". He also published Cuiburi în soare (1926), Hermanosa din Corint. Povestea unei hetaire (1927) and Grădina lui Teocrit (1928). He wrote a version of the Song of Songs in 1925, as well as translating Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Fausto Maria Martini, Gunnar Heiberg and Sigbjørn Obstfelder. His poetry was Neoclassical, with certain affinities linking it to the motifs and rhythms of Symbolism and Parnassianism.

Pazze di me () is a 2013 Italian comedy film co-written and directed by Fausto Brizzi.
Plot
The film starts with a flashback of protagonist Andrea's childhood, narrated by adult Andrea musing about his dislike for two particular proverbs. According to the first, there is always a first time, but for Andrea the last times are even more important—such as the last time he saw his father, who left the family in the middle of the night many years ago. According to the other proverb, there are seven women for every man in the world—Andrea has them all at home, and none of them is easy to deal with: his grandmother Matilde, once a professor of astrophysics, is now suffering from dementia and depends on her live-in caregiver Bogdana. His mother Vittoria, administrator of 11 condominiums, is the undisputed master of the house, nicknamed Sergeant Hartman (after the Full Metal Jacket character) for her rigorous ways. Then there are his three older sisters: Veronica, the oldest (and the only one to no longer live with her mother), is a convinced feminist with a low opinion of men. Federica, a doctor, is notoriously disorganized. She changes men every other week and habitually makes poor choices in doing so. Beatrice, who became a notary at age 22 (at the same time winning four consecutive wet T-shirt contests), is a perfectionist with a tendency to alienate people through her arrogance.
Andrea grew up being second fiddle to his older sisters. Looking for permanent employment, he is supporting himself with occasional jobs. While working in a bar, he has met Roberta. However, six months into their relationship, as she is spending the night at Andrea's place, tensions arise: Grandma walks in on the couple at night, Vittoria makes the two cancel a planned trip to the beach so Andrea can run some errands for her, Beatrice criticizes Roberta's cooking, Bogdana destroys Roberta’s computer with her thesis on it, Veronica scratches her car and has it towed for being parked in front of the family's garage, and Federica exchanges her dog for another by mistake. Roberta breaks up with Andrea and storms out in anger. She leaves behind the dog, a female, which becomes the seventh “woman” in Andrea's life.
Beatrice’s fiancé leaves her at the altar, as he can no longer bear a woman as flawless as her, which destroys Andrea's hope of another sister moving out. Beatrice falls into a deep depression and refuses to change out of her wedding dress for weeks.
While delivering pizza to the house of a woman named Giulia and her boyfriend Paolo, he walks in on a heated argument between the couple. Giulia ends up leaving Paolo for Andrea, but to avoid losing yet another girlfriend over his difficult family, Andrea claims to be an orphan. After several near-encounters with his family, he is eventually unmasked. Giulia forgives him and is introduced to his family. As Giulia and Andrea spend time at a spa, they discover that Veronica has started an affair with a married man no other than Giulia's father. Nonetheless, Giulia's parents celebrate their wedding anniversary, to which they invite Andrea's entire family. After Andrea's sisters ruin the party, Giulia demands that Andrea decide between her and her family. Andrea declares to his family that he is leaving, packs his bags and heads for Giulia's home. But after an unexpected encounter with his father, who does not even recognize his own son, he decides to “fix” his family before leaving for good. He encourages Federica's assistant (and potential father of the child she is expecting) to make a move towards her, and does the same to the concierge of the condominium, who has long held feelings for Vittoria but never had the courage to express them. He provokes an argument between Veronica and Riccardo, causing the two to break up and making Veronica realize Riccardo was never interested in a serious relationship with her. By showing Beatrice some childhood movies, he makes her realize how she has alienated other people from childhood on. After a harmonic family Christmas, he returns for Giulia, only to find that Paolo has since moved back in with her. He goes on to live on his own, and one day bumps into Roberta in a supermarket. The two decide to give it another try. Just then Andrea gets another call from his mother, but he puts the phone into a crate of lemons and walks off with Roberta.
As the end credits roll, Andrea's phone receives several text messages from his family, announcing new disasters: Matilde hit a cop with her mobility scooter and escaped, Federica has forgotten her baby at the supermarket (right after the message arrives, a loudspeaker announcement about an abandoned baby is heard in the background), Beatrice announces suicide after discovering a white hair, Veronica has fallen in love with Roberta's father, Andrea's father has returned to the family.

Deadsoul Tribe were an Austrian progressive metal band founded by Devon Graves (known as 'Buddy Lackey') from Psychotic Waltz.
Biography
Deadsoul Tribe was formed by Devon Graves in 2000. Graves was originally the vocalist for another progressive metal band, Psychotic Waltz, where he was credited as Buddy Lackey, but departed from the group in 1997, claiming that he felt himself to be the band's "weakest link". In Deadsoul Tribe Graves serves as the principal songwriter, lead vocalist and guitarist as well as the producer on all of its releases.
The remainder of the band consisted of Adel Moustafa on drums and Roland Ivenz on bass, with Roland "Rollz" Kerschbaumer, who joined the band in 2002, providing additional guitar work. The band's sound is characterized by heavy usage of tribal rhythms, dark atmospherics and unusual time signatures.
Several Deadsoul Tribe tracks, such as "Black Smoke and Mirrors" on A Murder of Crows and "Toy Rockets" on The January Tree feature Devon Graves on flute, an instrument he picked up largely due to his admiration for Jethro Tull frontman Ian Anderson.
The band's fifth studio album, A Lullaby for the Devil, was released on September 11, 2007.
On November 20, 2009, the band split up.

Pierre Duval Le Camus, known as Camus le père (13 February 1790, Lisieux - 29 July 1854, Saint-Cloud) was a French painter and lithographer who specialized in portraits and genre scenes. His son, Jules-Alexandre Duval Le Camus, also became a well-known artist.
Biography
His father, master glazier, sent him to Paris to learn the trade. Once there, he found himself attracted to the arts instead and began taking lessons from Claude Gautherot. Later, in 1808, he would study with Jacques-Louis David. In 1811, he painted a portrait of , the .
As a result, he met and married Courtin's niece, Aglaé Virginie d'Houlouve; a fortunate marriage that opened the doors of high society to him, as her grandfather had been President of the Bar Association of the Parlement de Paris and her father was a cavalry officer.
In addition to his numerous portraits, of both the notable and the now-forgotten, he was also much appreciated for his genre scenes. He exhibited regularly at the Salon from 1819 to 1853. Many among the royalty were customers of his; La Réprimande was purchased by the Duchess de Berry, La Chasse au traque by Louis XVIII, and La Nourrice by King Louis-Philippe. He later became a sort of unofficial court painter for the Duchess.
In 1837, he founded the Musée d'art et d'histoire de Lisieux and was named a Chevalier in the Legion of Honor. In 1848, during the Revolution, he went to live in Saint-Cloud and served as Mayor from 1853 until his death.
His works may be seen at the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Bordeaux, Musée Thomas-Henry, , the Louvre and the Hermitage.

The Narva March (; ; ) or the March of Narva is a Swedish military march. It is now often used as a funeral march, especially at Finnish or Estonian state or military funerals.
The march, named after the 1700 battle of Narva, can be traced back in written sources to 1797, when it appeared in a Swedish piano book as ("The March used as Charles XII approached Narva"). Its ultimate origin is unknown, although some have speculated on an ultimate Scottish or Irish origin.
In 1818, on the centennial of Charles XII's death, the Swedish poet Erik Gustaf Geijer wrote a poem to commemorate the event. His words are now often used with the march in Sweden, where it is consequently better known by the first line "".
It should not be confused with the , a faster march composed by Anders von Düben the Younger.

The rufous twistwing (Cnipodectes superrufus) is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae (tyrant flycatchers). It was described as a new species in 2007.
It is associated with bamboo growing in humid forested regions in south-eastern Peru, northern Bolivia and far western Brazil (Acre only). Most of its range is remote. Nevertheless, it has recently been estimated that the total population is below 10,000 individuals, leading to recommendations of treating it as vulnerable, and this was followed by BirdLife International in 2009. As suggested by its common name, its primaries are modified as in the related, but smaller, brownish twistwing. Unlike the brownish twistwing, the rufous twistwing is bright rufous overall.
In 2009, Andrew Spencer recorded the effect of the twist in the wings of the rufous twistwing. To hear the sound, follow the link at the bottom of this page.

This is a list of notable United States unincorporated territory officials convicted of federal public corruption offenses for conduct while in office. The list is organized by office. Non-notable officials, such as sewer inspectors and zoning commissioners, are not included on this list, although they are routinely prosecuted for the same offenses. Acquitted officials are not listed (if an official was acquitted on some counts, and convicted on others, the counts of conviction are listed). Officials convicted of territorial crimes are not listed.
The criminal statute(s) under which the conviction(s) were obtained are noted. If a defendant is convicted of a conspiracy to commit a corruption offense, the substantive offense is listed. Convictions of non-corruption offenses, such as making false statements, perjury, obstruction of justice, electoral fraud, and campaign finance regulations, even if related, are not noted. Nor are derivative convictions, such as tax evasion or money laundering. Officials convicted only of non-corruption offenses are not included on this list, even if indicted on corruption offenses as well. Certain details, including post-conviction relief, if applicable, are included in footnotes.
The Hobbs Act (enacted 1934), the mail and wire fraud statutes (enacted 1872), including the honest services fraud provision, the Travel Act (enacted 1961), the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) (enacted 1970), and the federal program bribery statute, 18 U.S.C. § 666 (enacted 1984), have been used to prosecute of such officials. These statutes are also applicable to corrupt federal, state, and local officials. The Ninth Circuit has held that the program bribery statute does not apply to Guam.

The Hialeah Seaboard Air Line Railway Station is a historic Seaboard Air Line Railroad depot in Hialeah, Florida. It is located at 1200 Southeast 10th Court.
Built in 1926, the station is essentially identical to the Naples Seaboard station on the southwest coast of Florida. Architects Harvey and Clarke, who also designed many other Seaboard Air Line stations of the period, designed the Mediterranean Revival station. It was served by, among other Seaboard trains, the Orange Blossom Special until 1953, and the Silver Meteor beginning in 1939. Passenger service to the station ended in 1972. On July 14, 1995, the station was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.
In 1989, the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority began Tri-Rail commuter rail service to the station, adding a bus shelter style structure immediately to the south, which it calls the Hialeah Market station.

Jessica Jane Harrington (née Fowler, born 12 February 1947)
is an Irish professional horse trainer. Harrington specialises in National Hunt racing but has also had success in Flat racing.
Personal life
Harrington was born in London. Her father was Brigadier Bryan Fowler, an officer in the British Army, and her mother was Mary Walford. Bryan Fowler was originally from Kells, County Meath and served with the Royal Artillery in both World Wars, and married Mary, who was a widow, in 1944. She had two children from her previous marriage. Harrington had an older brother, John Fowler, who was also a racehorse trainer and died in an accident in 2008 at their family estate in Summerhill, County Meath. Bryan Fowler left the army in 1949 and returned with his family to Ireland where Harrington spent her childhood. She did not go to school until she was aged twelve, being tutored. She then went to school at Hatherop in England for four years before going to a Finishing school in France.
Harrington was married to David Lloyd at the age of 21; their marriage ended in 1976 and they had two children, James and Tara. Harrington later married bloodstock agent Johnny Harrington and remained married to him until his death from cancer in April 2014. Together the couple had two daughters, Emma and Kate. As well, Jessica and Johnny had three sons-in-law, a daughter-in-law and seven grandchildren.
Professional life
Before Harrington got her training permit in 1989, she had earned a reputation for being one of Ireland's top three-day event riders. She represented her country on three levels: European, World and Olympic. In 1994, Harrington's horse Oh So Grumpy earned himself (and indirectly Harrington) a “landmark success” at the Galway Hurdle. A couple of years later Dance Beat picked up Leopardstown's Ladbroke Handicap Hurdle. By 1996 Harrington had earned a reputation for being linked to high-profile horses. She then went on to enjoy seven Cheltenham Festival victories, rendering her "one of the most successful current Irish trainers at the meeting." Her most notable horses include: Moscow Flyer, Curtain Call, Bible Belt, Pathfork and Laughing Lashes.
On 17 March 2017 she won the Cheltenham Gold Cup with Sizing John and the following month won the Irish Grand National at Fairyhouse racecourse. It was a first win, in both races, for both Harrington and rider Robbie Power.

The Victory Services Club (VSC) is a private members club and registered charity in London, England for retired, veteran, serving members and immediate family members of Commonwealth and NATO armed forces, including the UK and US. Membership is open to all ranks of Commonwealth and NATO's armies, navies, marines and air forces, differing from other military clubs in London which restrict membership either to their officer corps, other ranks or to members of a particular corps, branch, regiment or service.
Located near Marble Arch and Connaught Square, the club provides lodging, dining services and conference facilities to members. The club also includes a trading arm for corporate events. This includes eight event spaces, which can hold from 200 to 300 guests.
History
The club was founded in 1907, providing services to retired members of the armed forces. In 1970, it broadened membership qualification to include currently serving members, and civilian family. Original premises were in Holborn, with a move soon after to other premises in the same area. In 1948, the club moved to its current larger premises in a building used by American forces during the Second World War. The accommodation was extended, with construction starting in 1954 on an adjacent site, and the Memorial Wing being opened by Prime Minister Winston Churchill in 1957.
Initially known as the Veterans' Club when opened by Major Arthur Haggard, brother of the author H. Rider Haggard, the club was renamed in 1936 in memory of Field Marshal Viscount Edmund Allenby, who had been President since 1933.
With membership still limited to retired servicemen and immediate family, the club was later renamed as the Victory Ex-Services Club, and in 1970 assumed the present name when membership was opened to serving personnel and families.
On 11 October 1974 at around 10:30 pm the club, and the Army and Navy Club, were bombed by the Provisional Irish Republican Army's London based active service unit, injuring one person.
As a charity, the club works with other service charities and the Armed Forces Welfare Agencies to provide support for wounded personnel and carers on respite opportunities in London.
Its patrons have included General Eisenhower, Field-Marshal Earl Alexander of Tunis and Field-Marshal Viscount Montgomery of Alamein. In 2014 Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall succeeded Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh as Patron-in-Chief. The club has approximately 65,000 members and has the largest membership of any military club in the UK.
Membership
Membership in the Victory Services Club is open to all ranks of the four British armed services and of the NATO members' forces, both active and retired, widows and widowers of British armed services, as well as Commonwealth and Native personnel, and parents and children (over 18) of serving and ex-serving personnel. Members obtain unlimited use of the club's facilities, including the accommodation, restaurant and bar, as well as discount rates for event rooms and catering.
Members can invite as many as four guests to stay in the club, store luggage and receive the VSC's twice-yearly newsletter. There are also reciprocal arrangements available with affiliated clubs in Edinburgh, New York, San Francisco, Sydney, Canada, Malaysia and New Zealand.
Accommodation
The Victory Services Club has been recognised and recommended by numerous publications, including the Los Angeles Times, as a unique travel option for travelling active duty, veteran, and retired members of NATO's military forces. The club offers more than 200 accommodation rooms including singles, twins, doubles, family rooms and disabled access rooms across two wings. Bathrooms are available en-suite or shared, and meals may be included with accommodation or bought separately. A well-stocked library, reading room, and portraits of statesmen and military leaders placed throughout the club emphasize its military origin and maintain that orderly character, while two bars and daily afternoon tea provide a comfortable setting in which to relax and meet other members visiting the club.

Carl Koppelman is an American professional accountant and unpaid volunteer forensic sketch artist. Since 2009, Koppelman has drawn over 250 reconstructions and age progressions of missing and unidentified people.
Early life and death fascination
Koppelman has attributed growing up in the 1970s, when there was a growing coverage of serial killers, to starting his fascination with crime and unsolved mysteries. Koppelman has also attributed several key incidents as formative memories. The first of these happened when he was 9, during the 1972 Summer Olympics, when terrorists killed 11 Israeli athletes. Koppelman has cited this as being one of the earlier memories of the evil that people do to each other. The next key event happened in 1977, when Koppelman was 14. 17 year old John LaMay, a friend of Koppelman's brother, was killed by the "trash bag killer" Patrick Kearney. This incident directly impacted Koppelman's sphere of community. The third notable incident did not directly impact Koppelman, but was a formative experience for him nonetheless. In 1979, when Koppelman was 16, 16 year old Lucinda Lynn Schaefer was killed by the "tool box killers" in neighboring Redondo Beach, California. Koppelman remembers following news of the case in the newspaper.
Adult life
During his young adulthood, Koppelman worked multiple different odd jobs, many of them unrelated to each other. These jobs included construction work, working in the meat room at a grocery store, and a metalworking job in the aerospace industry. Koppelman never worked in a profession that required artistry, but he had done art recreationally for most of his life. Koppelman, who did not enjoy any of the jobs he held, went to Long Beach State University to study accounting. After college, Koppelman worked as an internal auditor for the Los Angeles County Municipal Court, and a Senior Accountant for Princess Cruises, based in Santa Clarita, California. Following that, Koppelman worked as a Senior Financial Analyst for The Walt Disney Company in Burbank, California until 2009, when his aging mother's failing health prevented him from making the commute. Following his termination from his job at Disney, at age 46 in 2006, Koppelman became his mother's full-time caretaker at her house in El Segundo, California. At the time, his mother was 86. Because of how much care his mother needed, most of Koppelman's interaction with the rest of the world took place online during this time. In 2017, after his mother's death, Koppelman sold her house and returned to work.
Forensic involvement
Initial interest
Koppelman first became truly interested in crime and forensics in August 2009, after the media storm surrounding the safe return of Jaycee Dugard. Koppelman reports sitting in his mother's home on the computer, looking at online news articles about the case and photos of Dugard. Through his seeking of material about the case, Koppelman first came across Websleuths, a forum website for armchair enthusiasts of crime investigation. Koppelman began to explore the website, and found himself gravitating specifically towards the forum for the missing and unidentified. Over time, Koppelman shifted from reading the discussions to pitching in on them, spending up to 12 hours a day searching for leads, from sources such as old yearbooks and Classmates.com pages. Koppelman posts under the username CarlK90245. Koppelman has stated that the skills he learned as an accountant helped him in his pursuits as a web sleuth, including the large spreadsheet he keeps of listings from NamUs. Koppelman continued to contribute, eventually being appointed as an unpaid administrator for the forum.
Work as a sketch artist
Koppelman's work as an amateur sketch artist began in 2009, when he noted that police reconstructions of unidentified and formerly unidentified decedents often did not resemble their subjects, as well as looking stiff and not lively. Koppelman's first reconstruction was of a male found dead of accidental causes in a motel in Philadelphia in 2006, later identified as Joseph Cole. After this, Koppelman continued to create reconstructions. Initially, Koppelman would do reconstructions based on which cases had postmortem photos publicly available online, though as he grew in rapport Koppelman began to work with law enforcement on cases. Nancy Monahan's website for missing and unidentified people in Pennsylvania asked to use one of Koppelman's reconstructions, this one being of an unidentified male who died in a hospital in Los Angeles after a coma caused by blunt trauma to the head, who was later identified as George Pollard of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Koppelman's reconstruction was directly attributed to helping match the identification, as loved ones of Pollard saw the reconstruction on Monahan's website and noted the similarities between the reconstruction and George Pollard. Pollard's case is often attributed to be Koppelman's first significant contribution as a forensic artist.
Since he began his forensic involvement, Koppelman has helped to close 8 cases as of 2019. Koppelman has no specific criteria for how he picks which cases he will reconstruct. Koppelman's renderings themselves have been credited in the identifications of 3 unidentified decedents. Koppelman himself has matched 5 identities, and his contributions have helped 2 missing-presumed-dead be recovered alive. Koppelman, who is almost always an unpaid volunteer, puts every reconstruction up on Websleuths. Koppelman also sends his completed reconstructions to NamUs, who then decide whether or not to display it on the case's listing. Koppelman also works by request with local law enforcements, and is a volunteer at the DNA Doe Project, where he helps to do genealogical research in addition to providing reconstructions. In addition to reconstructions of unidentified decedents, Koppelman also gets requests from families of missing persons to create age progressions of their missing loved ones. Koppelman receives a high volume of such requests, and is not logistically capable of fulfilling all of them. Koppelman's Websleuths involvements in multiple cases have been reported in the press, most famously those of Tammy Alexander and Sherri Jarvis. One of the owners of Websleuths, Tricia Griffith, has personally thanked Koppelman for his contributions.
Following the death of his mother in 2017, Koppelman returned to working as an accountant, but continues to create forensic reconstructions.
Forensic arts process
According to Koppelman, each reconstruction takes multiple drafts, with some reconstructions taking dozens. Koppelman creates his reconstructions on Corel Photo-Paint, a software he received as a gift. Koppelman begins each reconstruction with a model photo of a live person who is similar to how the decedent would have looked in life, which he uses to maintain a lifelike quality to his reconstructions. After several years of experience creating forensic reconstructions, Koppelman is adept at figuring out the race, sex, age, and build of a decedent based on highly degraded remains, including charred remains or skulls. Koppelman sets the model photo at 90% transparency, with the intention to keep his reconstruction from being unduly influenced by the model photo, which is intended to serve more as a guideline. Koppelman then creates the reconstruction while studying post-mortem photographs of the decedent extensively. The amount of time each reconstruction takes to complete varies based on factors such as decomposition and facial trauma. Cases with minimal damage typically take between 5 and 6 hours for Koppelman to reconstruct. However, even in cases with minimal decomposition, rigor mortis causes changes in facial features such as the eyes and mouth.
Notable cases
Carl Koppelman's involvement has been credited with significant progress in multiple cases, and in some cases, such as that of Tammy Jo Alexander, Koppelman was even the one to link the decedent with their correct identity. In the case of Sherri Ann Jarvis, Koppelman was the administrator of a Facebook page that helped to keep public attention on the case. In the cases of Aundria Bowman and Linda Pagano, Koppelman's involvement on the cases can increase the pressure on law enforcement to make headway in the cases.
"Cali Doe" Tammy Jo Alexander
In 1979, a teenaged girl was shot in the back and head and dumped in a cornfield in Caledonia, in upstate New York. The girl, who inspectors believed was a runaway or hitchhiker, remained unidentified, coming to be known instead as "Caledonia Jane Doe" or "Cali Doe". Koppelman made his first reconstruction of Cali Doe in 2010, but would reconstruct her more than 20 more times in the coming years. Koppelman reported being specially invested in the Cali Doe case, and had said that he believed that after so much time spent reconstructing Cali Doe, he would be able to recognize her anywhere. In addition to repeatedly reconstructing the victim's face, Koppelman also would spend hours looking through old yearbooks from high schools in Florida, Arizona, and Southern California, places where pollen analysis of the victim's clothing indicated she had been living shortly before her death. Due to her history of running away, Tammy Jo Alexander was assumed to have started a new life elsewhere without contact with her family. In Autumn of 2014, a friend of Alexander's from high school, wondering what had happened to her old classmate, put up a missing person listing including a photo of Alexander. Before that, Alexander had not been listed as missing anywhere. In September of that year, Koppelman came upon the listing for Alexander on NamUs and immediately suspected that Alexander could be Cali Doe. The identification was confirmed through forensic DNA analysis using DNA from Alexander's half-sister, Pamela Dyson. On January 25, 2016, 35 years after her death, Cali Doe was publicly identified as Tammy Jo Alexander of Florida. A funerary service for Alexander was held at the cemetery she was buried at in Livingston, New York, which Koppelman was in attendance of.
"Walker County Jane Doe" Sherri Ann Jarvis
On 1 November 1980, a passing truck driver on Interstate 45 in Huntsville discovered the nude body of a young teenaged girl beside the road in Walker County, Texas. The girl had been sexually assaulted before being strangled. Witnesses report having last seen the girl hitchhiking at the nearby Hitchin' Post truck stop, and she had told a waitress there that she was from Rockport or Aransas Pass, Texas. Koppelman worked on the Walker County Jane Doe case for 12 years, having first learned about the case in 2009, but it was not until after the positive identification of Tammy Jo Alexander that Koppelman became heavily focused on Walker County Jane Doe. Koppelman says that after the identification of Tammy Alexander, his focus on Walker County Jane Doe became singleminded. In addition to making multiple reconstructions of Walker County Jane Doe, Koppelman spent a significant amount of hours combing forensic files and police reports on the case, as well as searching old yearbooks from high schools in Texas. Koppelman also started and maintained a Facebook page dedicated to the case, called "Who Was Walker County Jane Doe". Koppelman stated that the case captivated him because "It's a teenage girl who appears to have been from a middle-class background. You'd think the parents would come claim the body or report her missing. But that never happened. That in and of itself was a big mystery." Koppelman has reported that the Walker County Jane Doe case is the one he spent the most time on. In 2017, Koppelman even traveled to Huntsville to retrace her last steps. In 2021, Walker County Jane Doe was positively identified as Sherri Ann Jarvis, 14, of Stillwater, Minnesota.
Aundria Bowman
On 11 March 1989, 14 year old Aundria Bowman, born Alexis Miranda Badger, disappeared from her adoptive family's home in Holland, Michigan, after accusing her adoptive father Dennis Bowman of molesting her. She was reported as missing by Dennis Bowman, who claimed she had run away. In 2009, Koppelman became aware of the case of Racine County Jane Doe, latter identified as Peggy Lynn Johnson. Koppelman began to research the case, including looking through news articles and dedicated social media pages, as well as missing persons database. While looking through missing person listings on NamUs, Koppelman identified Aundria Bowman as a strong candidate for being Racine County Jane Doe. The theory was that Aundria had run away and been murdered years later, in 1999. Koppelman began to investigate Aundria's disappearance online, eventually coming across a Classmates.com page for Aundria that was still actively being maintained. Koppelman reached out to the owner of the page, who revealed herself to be Aundria's biological mother, Cathy Terkanian. Terkanian first heard of her daughter's disappearance in 2010, when she was asked to provide a DNA sample to compare to the Racine County Jane Doe (later identified as Peggy Johnson). Koppelman and Terkanian exchanged lengthy correspondence, forming a friendship as they investigated Aundria's disappearance, even after DNA from Terkanian ruled out Aundria as Racine County Jane Doe. Dennis Bowman, Aundria's adoptive father, emerged as the most viable suspect in her disappearance. Dennis Bowman had a preexisting criminal history, including sexual assault, at the time of Aundria's disappearance. Koppelman and Terkanian made 4 trips to Michigan to interview friends of Aundria and pressure law enforcement into investigating. When Dennis Bowman came into the police station to report Terkanian for harassment, police collected his DNA, and linked it to a murder committed in 1980. When Dennis Bowman was convicted of the murder of Kathleen Doyle, he confessed to the murder of his adoptive daughter. Aundria's body was recovered in February 2020 from beneath a concrete slab in Dennis Bowman's backyard. In 2021, Dennis Bowman was convicted of Aundria's murder.
"Strongsville Jane Doe" Linda Pagano
In September 1974, 17 year old Linda Pagano was kicked out of her stepfather's house in Akron, Ohio following an argument. Pagano was never seen alive again. In February 1975 a partial skeleton was discovered on a river bank in a park in Strongsville, Ohio. The skeleton was determined to be a young white female who had been killed by a gunshot to the head. When the skeleton continued to remain unidentified, she was buried in an anonymous grave. In 2014, Christina Scates, a local college student, was doing genealogy research in cemetery records when she rediscovered the unidentified burial. Scates posted her find on Reddit, expressing shock that there seemed to be little investigation done into the girl's identity. In 2015, her posting attracted the attention of Carl Koppelman. Koppelman posted a reconstruction of Strongsville Jane Doe's skull, but it did not lead to an identification. Shortly after seeing Scates' post, Koppelman was contacted by the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's Office to work on an unrelated case. Koppelman asked for higher quality photos of the unidentified skeleton, and it was realized that a clerical error had prevented the case from being listed in NamUs. Within a year of Koppelman inquiring about the case, Akron law enforcement reached out to Cuyahoga County with the theory that Strongsville Jane Doe could be Linda Pagano. On 12 July 2018, Strongsville Jane Doe was publicly identified as Linda Pagano.

The 2007 Chittagong mudslides () occurred in the port city of Chittagong in south-eastern Bangladesh. On 11 June 2007, heavy monsoon rainfall caused mudslides that engulfed slums around the hilly areas of the city. Experts had previously warned the increasing likelihood of landslides due to the Bangladesh government's failure in curbing the illegal hill cutting taking place in Chittagong.
Extent of the disaster
One third of Chittagong, a city of five million residents, came under water due to heavy rainfall and tidal water. The flash floods in the hills caused mud slides and rubble to bury shanties at the foot of the hills near Chittagong Cantonment. Many residents took refuge in local mosques after losing their homes in the disaster. The death toll was reported to be at least 128, including at least 59 children, with more than 150 injured. This is expected to rise further as the rescue efforts got underway and additional reports were received. The government asked the local authorities to evacuate 8,000 people from Lebubagan, the worst hit area. The country-wide death toll from the floods and landslides neared 130 on 12 June, according to Reuters. Most of the deaths were a result of the landslides or from buildings collapsing in the rain.
Communication infrastructure was badly affected with telephone links with the rest of the country and within the city inoperable. Kalurghat Radio Station had to be shut down as its offices were submerged in six feet of water. Flights to the city's Shah Amanat International Airport, were suspended and the Chittagong Port, serving 90% of the country's foreign trade, was closed.
Disaster management
Bangladesh President Iajuddin Ahmed and his Chief Advisor Fakhruddin Ahmed have been in touch with the local administration to keep abreast of ongoing developments and the government has approved Tk 9 lakh to assist the victims. This is the first natural disaster to befall the country since the caretaker government was put in place in January 2007.
Causes of the disaster
Bangladesh's annual monsoon for 2007 started with unusually heavy rain, intensified by a storm from the Bay of Bengal on 9–10 June 2007. By 11 June, more than one-third of the southeastern coastal city of Chittagong was under water, reported the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. In addition to the floods, the rains triggered devastating landslides in the deforested hills on which the city is built.
Chittagong Deputy Commissioner Mukhlesur Rahman blamed hill cutting for the disaster. Lalkhan Bazar, one of the worst damaged areas in the mudslide, has been identified as one of the most affected by hill cutting led by influential people. Professor of Geography and Environmental studies in Chittagong University Shahidul Islam explained,
"The only reason for Monday's mud slide in the cantonment area is cutting hills indiscriminately... We were warning about this risk for decades, and this event our fears real." Architect Jerina Hossain said, "Cutting hills made the soil slippery and loose. As a result, it came down with the rain."
Communications Adviser of the Bangladesh Government Major General MA Matin supervising the rescue operation on behalf of the Chief Adviser Fakhruddin Ahmed directed Chittagong divisional and district administration to identify those responsible for hill cutting on 14 June.
Other areas
In the same monsoon onslaught other areas in Bangladesh suffered in varying degrees. In the nearby town of Comilla, to the north, 60,000 people were rendered homeless and in the adjacent district of Cox's Bazar, to the south, 400,000 people were marooned in floods. Three more people were injured in another mudslide in the nearby hill town of Rangamati to the east, where Kaptai Lake became dangerously overflooded to threaten a 230 megawatt hydro-electric plant. On the day of the mudslide in Chittagong, 11 people died in lightning strikes in Cox's Bazar, Noakhali and Brahmanbaria districts around the disaster damaged areas.

Ebrahim Nafae () (12 January 1934 – 1 January 2018) was an Egyptian journalist. He was editor of the Egyptian newspaper Al-Ahram from 1979 to 2005 and chair of the General Union of Arab Journalists from 1996 to 2012.
Biography
Born in Suez, he received a bachelor's degree from Ain Shams University in 1956 before beginning his career as a Reuters reporter. He then became an editor at Egyptian Radio and an economy editor of the state-owned Al Gomhuria. Nafae worked at Al-Ahram as head of the economy section and deputy editor-in-chief.
He was editor-in-chief of Al-Ahram from 1979 to 2005, and he was later appointed CEO of the newspaper. Haaretz wrote that Nafae "faithfully transmitted" the policies of Egyptian Presidents Anwar Sadat and Hosni Mubarak and that as president of the Egyptian Journalists Syndicate, he "shaped Egypt's propaganda policy and defined the borders of self-censorship by the press." Nafae was replaced by Salah El-Ghamri as board chair and Osama Saraya as editor-in-chief. The Shura Council appointed Nafae to be a member of the Higher Press Council.
Nafae served for over a decade as chair of Egypt's independent since 1985 and of the General Union of Arab Journalists from 1996 to 2012. Nafae was close to President Mubarak, and after the 2011 uprising, left to France for medical checkups. His health deteriorated in late 2017, and several writers called for Egyptian authorities to allow him to return to the country. Nafae died of cancer on 1 January 2018, 11 days before his 84th birthday, in Dubai after undergoing surgery.

General elections were held in Belize on 27 August 1998. The result was a victory for the People's United Party, which won 26 of the 29 seats and Said Musa was elected as Prime Minister for the first time. Voter turnout was 90%, the highest since independence.
Background
The ruling United Democratic Party (UDP) was widely perceived as incompetent, incapable of governing and riddled with corruption. Crime and unemployment rose while a number of government projects were universally panned. After winning nationwide municipal elections in 1994, they had lost two other municipal votes in 1996 and 1997. The PUP capitalized on the people's anger to present a manifesto of far-reaching proposals which they claimed would "Set Belize Free".
Prime Minister Manuel Esquivel advised Governor General Sir Colville Young to dissolve the House of Representatives on 13 July 1998. The House stood dissolved with effect from 15 July 1998.
Election day was set for 27 August 1998. Nomination day was 11 August 1998; five political parties nominated 79 candidates, with three independents contesting.
The radio station LOVE FM held the first Prime Ministerial debate in Belize on 23 July 1998; it was attended by PM Esquivel and PUP leader Musa. Another debate would not be held until the 2020 election.
One controversy as the election date drew near was Attorney General Dean Barrow's rushed appointment of Manuel Sosa to the position of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court on 19 August to replace the ailing George Singh, just days before the election. Then-opposition leader Said Musa objected to this last minute appointment, and after his party took power was able to have it overturned on the grounds that he had not been properly consulted on the appointment as required by the constitution.
The National Alliance for Belizean Rights, which had run in coalition with the UDP in the previous election, chose to run on its own despite its sole member in the House, Philip Goldson, standing down. The party failed to win any seats and was not a factor in the election.
Results
The PUP won 26 of a possible 29 seats, the most lopsided general election win since independence. Several high-ranking UDP members went down to defeat, most notably Esquivel himself in Caribbean Shores. Only Barrow in Queen's Square and Michael Finnegan in Mesopotamia retained their seats for the UDP, while Erwin Contreras narrowly defeated the PUP's Amin Hegar in Cayo West for the UDP's third seat. Barrow became UDP leader shortly after the election.

The Short Line Reading Series is a free literary event that takes place at The Railway Club in Vancouver, British Columbia — a venue historical for showcasing local artistic talent.
Hosted by Memewar Magazine, the Short Line is advertised as “a space where artists from different circles can connect, debate and collaborate” — an idea that its organizers keep in mind while constructing diverse line-ups of readers. At each event, members from various Vancouver-based literary groups read short selections of their work (i.e. poetry, prose, essays, performance). Short Line events often include readings by prominent upcoming voices and well-established guest readers.
The Short Line began on January 9, 2007 with a reading by Michael Turner, author of Hard Core Logo and organizer of The Reading Railroad, a regular literary event of the mid-1990s, and inspiration for the founders of the Short Line.
History
The Short Line reading series was founded in November 2006 after conversations between Vancouver writer Carmen Papalia and Vancouver poet and musician Andrew Lee. The two drew their inspiration from author Michael Turner’s Reading Railroad series—a similar event of the mid-1990s which featured readings by various, and often conflicting, literary and musical artists.
Instead of presenting a mixture of starkly contrasting genres and styles as Turner did, the Short Line was designed to “connect” various prominent literary groups in Vancouver. A statement on the Memewar Magazine website reads, “In the spirit of this mixing of genres, the Short Line will include readings by artists from different Vancouver-based literary circles.”
Origin of name
The name “Short Line” refers to the “Short Line Railroad”, one of the four railroads in the popular board game Monopoly. The other railroads found on a standard Monopoly board include: B&O Railroad, Pennsylvania Railroad and Reading Railroad; the last being the name of Michael Turner’s popular reading series of the mid-1990s.
The term “short line railroad” is used to describe an independent railroad company which runs a short distance, and often “connects” different industries. The tagline of the Short Line reading series: “A space where artists from different circles can connect, debate and collaborate” perhaps refers to this quality of “connecting”.
Both “Short Line” and “Reading Railroad” also refer to “The Railway Club”, the Vancouver music venue which is famous for the miniature trains that run along its walls.

Greatest Hits is the fourth compilation album by American country music artist Barbara Mandrell. The album was produced by Tom Collins and released on MCA Records in March 1985. The album was her first compilation for MCA Records.
Background and content
Greatest Hits consisted of 10 major hits Barbara Mandrell charted between 1978 and 1985, ranging from her second number 1 single in 1978, "If Loving You Is Wrong (I Don't Want to Be Right)", to 1984's "Happy Birthday Dear Heartache". It also included three additional number 1 singles by Mandrell: "Years", "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool" and "One of a Kind Pair of Fools". Dan Cooper of Allmusic gave the album four out of five stars but criticized her musical style: "Hank Williams definitely didn't do it this way. Nevertheless, "I Was Country When Country Wasn't Cool" summed up a lot of folks' feelings as the Travolta crowd tried to claim him as their own." The album also included "There's No Love in Tennessee", a new song recorded specifically for this collection.
Release
Greatest Hits spawned one single, "There's No Love in Tennessee". The song became a Top 10 hit in 1985, peaking at #7 on the Billboard Magazine Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart and also peaked at #24 on the Canadian RPM Country Tracks chart. The album itself peaked at #27 on the Billboard Magazine Top Country Albums chart and missed the Billboard 200 albums chart, reaching #210 that year. Greatest Hits was originally released on an LP album upon its original release in 1985, with five songs on each of the record, total of 10 songs. The album was later reissued on a compact disc also under MCA.

Four to Doomsday is the second serial of the 19th season of the British science fiction television series Doctor Who, which was first broadcast in four twice-weekly parts on BBC1 from 18 to 26 January 1982.
The serial is set almost entirely on the spaceship of the alien Urbankan Monarch (Stratford Johns). In the serial, Monarch plots to invade Earth for its minerals using a deadly toxin to wipe out humanity so he can continue to make improvements to his ship.
Plot
The TARDIS materialises on board a vast and advanced spacecraft, observed by a hovering surveillance device which conveys the arrival of the crew to an observing being in control of the vessel. The TARDIS crew become separated and the Fifth Doctor and Tegan reach the bridge where the green-skinned commander introduces himself as Monarch, ruler of Urbanka, and his associates and fellow Urbankans are the Ministers of Enlightenment and Persuasion. The leader is intrigued by talk of current Earth civilisation and reveals their ship is bound for Earth. Shortly afterwards Enlightenment and Persuasion assume human forms, dressed in garments Tegan designed to demonstrate contemporary Earth fashions.
The TARDIS crew are reunited as guests, and it becomes apparent that there are four distinct human cultures represented on the vessel by a small group of humans – Ancient Greeks, the leader of whom is the philosopher Bigon; Chinese Mandarins and their leader Lin Futu; Princess Villagra and representatives of the Maya peoples; and Kurkutji and his tribesmen, of a very ancient Australian Aboriginal culture. The Urbankans have made periodic visits to Earth, each time getting speedier in their journeys. This time they have left their homeworld after erratic solar activity, storing three billion of their species on slides aboard their craft. It seems that the current journey is their last and that they now wish to settle on Earth, which they are due to reach in four days.
The Doctor becomes suspicious of Monarch and soon learns he does not plan on peaceful co-existence. Instead, he has developed a poison that reduces the intended in size to conquer Earth, which will be unleashed before the Urbankans disembark. He also learns that the humans aboard are not descendants of the original abductees, but are the original people taken from Earth and converted into androids, like the three Urbankans walking around on board. Monarch describes the era prior to his conversion of Urbankan life forms into cyborgs as the "flesh-time". The four leaders of the peoples have been given additional circuits to help them reason, but this facility can be taken away, as Bigon learns when he rebels against Monarch, and his neural circuit is removed and placed in a container for one hundred years. He explained to the Doctor that Monarch strip-mined and polluted Urbanka in a quest for minerals to improve the ship, and now plans to do the same to Earth. Monarch believes that if he can move the ship faster than the speed of light, he can pilot it back to the beginning of time and discover himself as God.
Adric, nevertheless, is rather taken with Monarch, and tensions between him and the Doctor become very strained. It takes The Doctor to break the tyrant's hold over the boy. The Doctor now sets about overthrowing Monarch and, with the help of the human androids led by a restored Bigon, a revolution is put into effect. Enlightenment and Persuasion are decircuited, while Monarch himself (whom the Doctor realises is still organic as there is an oxygen-producing flora chamber on the ship) is exposed to the poison and shrunk. The humanoid androids decide to pilot the vessel to a new home on a new world, while the TARDIS crew departs. Back in the console room, Nyssa suddenly collapses to the floor in a dead faint.
Production
The working title for this story was Days Of Wrath. Although Castrovalva was the first story aired which featured Peter Davison as the Fifth Doctor, this story was the first in the season to be produced.
It was originally decided that after Castrovalva, the Doctor would only have two companions, Adric and Tegan. As a result, the character of Nyssa was to be written out of the series at the end of this story. However, Peter Davison strongly opposed this move because he felt that Nyssa was the companion who was "most suited to his vision of the Doctor". Given this, producer John Nathan-Turner and the rest of the production team relented and Nyssa was retained. The story for the following serial Kinda was already developed with two companions and Nyssa was not featured in that narrative as written. Rather than a complete rewrite of Kinda to include Nyssa in the narrative, she remains absent much of that serial, said to be resting in the TARDIS. This was set up with Nyssa's collapse at the end of this story.

Nord-Rana (historically: Mo herred) is a former municipality in Nordland county, Norway. The municipality existed from 1839 until its dissolution in 1964. From 1839 until 1844, it was named Nord-Ranen, from 1844 until 1923, it was called Mo, and then from 1923 until 1964 it was named Nord-Rana. The former municipality was located at the innermost part of the Ranfjorden. It encompassed the eastern 90% of what is now Rana Municipality. The administrative centre was the village of Ytteren, just north of the town of Mo i Rana.
History
Rana Municipality was established on 1 January 1838 under the old formannskapsdistrikt law. Shortly afterwards, in 1839, the municipality was divided into Nord-Ranen and Sør-Ranen. In 1844, Nord-Ranen was renamed Mo. On 1 January 1923, the village of Mo was designated as a ladested and so it was separated from the rest of the municipality to become a municipality of its own. The new town of Mo (population: 1,305) kept the name Mo and the rest of the old municipality became known as Nord-Rana (bringing back the old name for the area).
During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, the municipality of Nord-Rana (population: 11,636) was merged with the town of Mo i Rana (population: 9,616), the part of the municipality of Sør-Rana located north of the Ranfjorden (population: 697), and the Sjona area of Nesna Municipality (population: 543) to create the large, new Rana Municipality.
Name
The municipality is named Nord-Rana. The first element is nord which directly translates to "northern". The second element is Rana which comes from the local river Ranelva (). The name of the river is probably derived from the word which means "quick", "fast", or "rapid". Another possibility is that the name comes from the old Sami god Rana Niejta.
Government
While it existed, this municipality was responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, unemployment, social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads. During its existence, this municipality was governed by a municipal council of elected representatives, which in turn elected a mayor.
