Farnham Cricket Club is based at Farnham in Surrey. It was founded in 1782 and for many years was a senior club due to the strength of its team, which featured Billy Beldham and John Wells. Farnham is a member of the Surrey Championship in the twenty-first century, with its first team now playing in the league's third tier Division II. The club's home stadium is at Folly Hill, on the outskirts of Farnham, directly below Farnham Castle.
History
1780s
Beldham and Wells families were instrumental in the club's formation. They featured Billy Beldham and John Wells, brothers-in-law who went on to become two of England's most famous footballers. Farnham's first known match, which they won, occurred on 13 August 1782 at Odiham. Their team included J. Wells (probably James Wells, elder brother of John) and two players called Beldham, spelled "Beldum" on the surviving scorecard. One was almost certainly George Beldham, Billy's elder brother, and the other was probably Billy himself, then aged sixteen.
There are no records of Farnham matches from 1783, and only one from 1784. That was against Odiham & Alton at Holt Pound Oval which is just across the county boundary in Hampshire. However, several Surrey matches were played there after it opened in 1784 as Farnham's home ground. The land belonged to Lord Stawell (1757–1820), who was a Hambledon Club member and a Farnham player. He commissioned the Beldhams to lay out the cricket pitch. The match against Odiham & Alton was arranged for 30 July 1784, but there is no post-match report. The teams are known and Farnham included Stawell and the Beldham brothers. A return match was arranged at Odiham Down on 4 August but the result is unknown.
Farnham played several matches in 1785 against opponents including Alresford and a team called Petworth, Northchapel & Tillington with six of Hambledon. That was followed by three matches against Hambledon for a purse of £100. In the first match at Holt Pound, Farnham were well beaten by an innings and 119 runs. The other two matches were played at Windmill Down but records have been lost. These were played, though, because Billy Beldham recalled them when he was interviewed by James Pycroft in 1837. Farnham won at least one, and possibly both.
In June 1786, Hambledon declined a challenge from Farnham. On 28 July 1786, Farnham were scheduled to play against "seven of Hambledon with four picked men from Sussex" on Northchapel Green, near Chichester, but again the result has not been found. In other matches in 1786, Farnham played against Berkshire, Warfield (twice), a Guildford & Godalming XXII, and a Godalming XII with four of Hambledon.
Later years
Other famous players associated with Farnham have been Julius Caesar and Graham Thorpe. The club celebrated its bi-centenary in 1982.

The Tennessee Lady Volunteers softball team represents the University of Tennessee (UT) in Knoxville, Tennessee in NCAA Division I women's softball competition. Coached by Karen Weekly, the team has become a consistently top tier team in the Southeastern Conference (SEC), appearing in every NCAA tournament since 2004, and qualifying for 8 Women's College World Series.
Along with all other UT women's sports teams, it used the nickname "Lady Volunteers" (or the short form "Lady Vols") until the 2015–16 school year, when the school dropped the "Lady" prefix from the nicknames of all women's teams except in basketball. In September 2017, the “Lady Volunteers” name was reinstated for all women’s athletics teams.
Overview
The Lady Vols first fielded a softball team in 1996 with Jim Beitia as head coach. In 2002, Tennessee hired the husband and wife team and former Chattanooga coaches Ralph and Karen Weekly as co-head coaches. Since 2004, the team has reached the NCAA Tournament every year and the Women's College World Series eight times. Under the Weekly's, Tennessee has been one of only two programs (the other is Alabama) to be a NCAA Top-16 seed every year since the current format was adopted in 2005. One particularly notable season came in 2007 when the Lady Vols managed to make history, finishing 63–8 for the program's best winning percentage of .887. The 2007 season culminated in a third-straight trip to the WCWS where Tennessee became the first SEC program to reach the best-of-three NCAA Championship Series, before falling to champion Arizona. That year, the team managed two wins over No. 4 Arizona, in addition to other triumphs against No. 6 Northwestern and No. 7 Texas A&M. These results propelled the Lady Vols to a record 11 consecutive weeks at No. 1 in the ESPN.com/USA Softball poll, becoming the first SEC school to reach the top ranking in the league's softball history. Tennessee would again reach the national championship series in 2013 as the No. 7 seed, where they ultimately fell to No. 1 Oklahoma.
Sherri Parker Lee Stadium
The Sherri Parker Lee Stadium is the home venue for the Lady Vols, replacing Tyson Park. Opened in 2008, the stadium can seat 1,614 spectators as well as three press boxes, four VIP suites and an observation deck for television crews. In addition to Tennessee home games, Lee Stadium has hosted the SEC softball tournament (in 2009 and 2017) and exhibition games involving the US national team (2008) and the Dutch national team (2011, 2012).
Situated next to the stadium, the Volunteers clubhouse is approximately and features a team room, whirlpools, training area and conference room. Its other amenities include a kitchen, 30-seat theater, trophy room and a recreation room with a big-screen television, pool table, video games and comfortable furniture for the student-athletes. The locker room is also equipped with full laundry facilities, a mud room, 24 large lockers, shower and bathroom facilities. Also next to the clubhouse is one of the largest batting cage facilities in the nation. It contains four 16-by- cages which are designed to provide plenty of room to walk or film between each. All four cages are covered from the weather and possess high-quality Astroturf.
In 2011 the field was recognized as the NFCA/Stabilizer Solutions Field of the Year.
In 2017 general admission outfield bleachers were added to the stadium.
Head Coach
Karen Weekly took over as sole head coach in 2021, having previously served as co-head coach alongside her husband Ralph Weekly since 2002.
Since Ralph and Karen Weekly took over the Lady Vols they have guided the program from a team struggling to make a name for themselves in the SEC to a team that has garnered world recognition for their success. The National Fastpitch Coaches Association (NFCA) has chosen to honor Ralph for his efforts throughout a distinguished, three-decade career, that has spanned from his time in the U.S. Air Force through stops at Pacific Lutheran, Chattanooga and now Tennessee, with a 2011 induction into the NFCA Hall of Fame.
Voted in by his coaching peers and with the organization consisting of just 49 previous inclusions, Ralph Weekly will join Ithaca head coach Deb Pallozzi in ceremonies to be held at the annual NFCA Convention. Ralph and Karen have taken the Vols to their first Southeastern Conference regular season and tournament championships as well as the team's first Women's College World Series appearance.
Their overall record at Tennessee is 465–150–2 and, in 2005, they recorded the programs most wins in a season with 67, an NCAA record at the time.. Ralph and Karen have also authored a book, High-Scoring Softball.

Fractus clouds, also called fractostratus or fractocumulus, are small, ragged cloud fragments that are usually found under an ambient cloud base. They form or have broken off from a larger cloud, and are generally sheared by strong winds, giving them a jagged, shredded appearance. Fractus have irregular patterns, appearing much like torn pieces of cotton candy. They change constantly, often forming and dissipating rapidly. They do not have clearly defined bases. Sometimes they are persistent and form very near the surface. Common kinds include and .
Forms
Fractus are accessory clouds, named for the type of cloud from which they were sheared. The two principal forms are cumulus fractus (formerly, fractocumulus) and stratus fractus (formerly, fractostratus). Fractus clouds may develop into cumulus if the ground heats enough to start convection. Stratus fractus is distinguishable from cumulus fractus by its smaller vertical extent, darker color, and by the greater dispersion of its particles.
Cumulus fractus clouds actually look like ragged cumulus clouds. They may originate from dissipated cumulus clouds, appearing in this case as white ragged clouds located at significant distances from each other. Cumulus fractus in particular form on the leading and trailing edges of summer storms in warm and humid conditions. Observing fractus gives an indication of wind movements under the parent cloud.
Masses of multiple fractus clouds, located under a main cloud, are called pannus.
Fractonimbus are a form of stratus fractus, developing under precipitation clouds due to turbulent air movement. They are dark-gray and ragged in appearance. Fractonimbus exist only under precipitation clouds (such as nimbostratus, altostratus or cumulonimbus), and don't produce precipitation themselves. Fractonimbus may eventually merge completely with overlying nimbostratus clouds.
Significance in thunderstorms
In rainstorms, scud often form in the updraft area where the air has been cooled by precipitation from the downdraft, thus condensation occurs below the ambient cloud deck. If scud are rising and moving towards the main updraft, sometimes marked by a rain-free base (RFB) or wall cloud, then the thunderstorm is still developing from rising scud.
In addition to forming in inflow, fractus also form in outflow. Scud are very common on the leading edge of a thunderstorm where warm, moist air is lifted by the gust front. Scud are usually found under shelf clouds.

Anthony Lionel Shelly (2 February 1937 – 4 October 1998) was a racing driver from New Zealand. He competed in Formula One in , participating in 3 World Championship Grands Prix, and several non-Championship races. He scored no World Championship points. He also owned a BMW dealership called Shelly Motors in Honolulu. The business had previously belonged to Shelly's father and had been sold on his death. Shelly subsequently re-acquired the business and became an American citizen in 1975. He divided his time between a home in Honolulu and one in New Zealand, where he died.
Career
Shelly made his motor racing debut in January 1955, entering a Morgan in the Sports Car class for the New Zealand Grand Prix. Shelly qualified but did not start the race. Shelly won "the first big race he contested" at Teretonga in 1958 driving a Cooper and went on to become a leading driver in Australia and New Zealand before moving to race in Europe in 1962. He drove mainly for John Dalton, usually in non-championship events with moderate success, a fifth in the Lombank Trophy and a third in the Lavant Cup being the highlights of his season. He was entered to 1962 Le Mans in June by Colin Chapman to co-drive with Les Leston with a Lotus 23, but the race organizer, ACO, denied the entry in the famous Lotus Le Mans debacle. He also entered three Formula One World championship events, at Aintree, where he retired with a failed cylinder head gasket, and at the Nürburgring and Monza, where he failed to qualify on each occasion. At the end of the season he returned to New Zealand where he continued to race in 1963 and 1964 following which he retired, although he did compete occasionally thereafter.

Operation Romeo was a French World War II commando operation to disable German artillery atop the cliffs of Cap Nègre. The operation happened the evening before Operation Dragoon, the main invasion of Southern France. The force consisted of 800 French commandos of the 1er Commando Français de l'Afrique du Nord (First French Commando of North Africa), commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Georges-Régis Bouvet. The attacking flotilla included the command ship HMCS Prince David, HMCS Prince Henry, HMS Princess Beatrix, HMS Prins Albert and four U.S. Motor Torpedo Boats.
At 0130 15 August, 95 commandos in landing craft from Prince David beached first, while the remainder of the force waited offshore. The commandos had to climb a tall cliff to reach their objective. Half an hour later, they sent word back that the enemy gun positions had been silenced. The main body of Romeo then came onto the beach. About 800 commandos moved quickly and were soon established across the main road between Toulon and the Riviera. 300 German soldiers were killed and 700 taken prisoner. The French commandos suffered 11 men killed and 50 wounded. The force held its position until relieved by VI Corps from the east on August 15, 1944.

Levi Casboult (born 15 March 1990) is an Australian rules footballer, who currently plays for the Gold Coast Suns in the Australian Football League, having formerly played for the Carlton Football Club from 2010 to 2021.
Casboult, a tall and solidly built player, spent much of his formative years as a ruckman and key position player. Casboult began to play TAC Cup football with the Dandenong Stingrays in 2007. He played a total of 44 games with the Stingrays; in his first two seasons, he scored only three goals, but in 2009 he was moved into a key forward role and scored 41 goals in 20 matches.
Casboult was recruited by the Carlton Football Club with its third round selection in the 2010 AFL Rookie Draft (at selection 44 overall). His first month at the club was eventful. Before the 2009 Christmas break, Casboult attended the team's controversial booze cruise (the fallout from which included the suspensions of Andrew Walker, Eddie Betts and Ryan Houlihan, plus a "please explain" to the club from the AFL); it was widely reported in the media that, in an initiation game, Casboult was handcuffed to an unnamed senior player and forced to match him drink-for-drink until barely conscious. A few days later, on 24 December, Casboult was fortunate to walk away uninjured from in a head-on car accident: his car was struck by the car of Samir Azemi, which had jumped the median strip on the Princes Highway in Dandenong. Azemi was killed in the accident.
Playing as a key forward and occasional ruckman for the club's , the Northern Blues, Casboult did not play an AFL game for Carlton in his first two seasons after being drafted, and was even on occasion dropped to the VFL reserves. A PCL injury at the start of 2012 made his chances of ever making his senior debut seem unlikely; but, only two VFL games after his return from that injury, Casboult was called into the senior team for his debut as starting ruckman in Round 17, 2012, after injuries and suspension resulted in Carlton's first three ruck choices all being unavailable for selection.
Casboult won a regular place in the senior team in 2014, playing as a forward and sometimes as a back-up ruckman. Over the course of his career, he gained attention as one of the strongest contested marks in the competition. and he was a Mark of the Year finalist in 2014. Through the early part of his career, this strength in his game was offset by very poor goalkicking accuracy from set shots, returning less than 50% each season and not reliable even at close range; but after working with former Collingwood and North Melbourne full forward Saverio Rocca in 2015 and again in 2017, became one of the team's most reliable set shots. He led the team in goalkicking for the only time in his career in 2017, with a return of 34 goals, 18 behinds, and signed a two-year contract extension with the club after the season.
After a 2018 season was abbreviated by injury, Casboult returned as a regular to the team in 2019 and 2020, and began playing swing key position roles in both the forwardline and backline, as well as back-up ruck. Falling out of form in 2021, Casboult played about half of the season in the senior team and was delisted at the end of the year, after 154 senior games. He was subsequently picked up by in the 2022 rookie draft.

The 2015 Texas Revolution season was the team's sixteenth season as a professional indoor football franchise, third as the "Texas Revolution", and first as a member of Champions Indoor Football (CIF). One of nine teams in the CIF for the 2015 season, the Revolution played their home games at the Allen Event Center in Allen, Texas.
The Revolution played under the direction of head coach Devin Wyman. The team was led by first-year coach Wendell Davis from the start of the season until he was let go after four regular season games on March 30, 2014.
Season summary
The Revolution's announced schedule for the 2015 season was disrupted when the New Mexico Stars abruptly postponed their entry into the league on February 21, just one week before the season began. On March 3, the Albuquerque-based Duke City Gladiators were announced as a late entry into the league, partially replacing the Stars in the CIF schedule with a plan to play 11 games in 2015. The Gladiators' schedule has them visiting the Revolution twice, just as the Stars were supposed to, but replaces the road game originally scheduled at New Mexico with a visit to the Dodge City Law.
Off-field moves
The Revolution earned a 3–11 record and missed the playoffs in 2014 under first-year head coach Chris Williams. In mid-July 2014, team president Tommy Benizio gave Williams a vote of confidence, expressing a need for "consistency" and declaring "I completely believe in him." In late August 2014, the team released Williams and hired former Dallas Cowboys cornerback Wendell Davis as head coach and director of football operations. In late September 2014, the team announced the hiring of NFL veteran Larry Centers as running backs and linebackers coach.
At the end of August 2014, the Texas Revolution announced it was leaving the Indoor Football League for the new Champions Indoor Football league. The team's 2015 schedule begins with a pre-season home game on February 27 and two regular season road games before the home opener on March 20. Team officials cited the new league's potential for both growth and stability as well as a flexible salary cap among the reasons for joining the CIF.
On February 12, 2015, the team introduced former Revolution running back Jennifer Welter as their new linebackers and special teams coach. Welter is the first woman to coach in a men's professional football league.
On March 30, 2015, the Revolution released head coach Wendell Davis and named defensive coordinator Devin Wyman as his replacement. The team cited the desire of general manager Tim Brown to "take a more active role with the coaching staff" as the reason for Davis' release. Two weeks later, Davis was named head coach of the San Angelo Bandits and his first game was a win over the Revolution.
On April 3, 2015, the team added NFL veteran Terry Glenn to the coaching staff as offensive coordinator.
Roster moves
Off-season
Leading up to the 2015 season, D1 Sports Training in Dallas served as the team's new performance training facility. On October 4, 2014, the team held its first open tryout for players at D1. A second open tryout was held January 3, 2015, at the Allen Event Center in Allen, Texas.
On September 11, 2014, the team signed kicker Garrett Palmer. On September 23, the team announced that it had re-signed defensive lineman Jason Sutherland and offensive lineman DJ Brandel as well as signing defensive end Robert Williams Jr. On September 30, the Revolution signed fullback Keidrick Jackson and linebacker Rashad Washington while releasing offensive lineman Xavier Pete and defensive back C.J. Wilson. On October 1, the Revs announced that All-IFL cornerback/wide receiver Frankie Solomon Jr. had re-signed for the 2015 season.
On October 6, the team signed offensive lineman Michael Wormley plus wide receivers Derrick Herman and DeMarcus Jenkins. On October 7, the Revolution signed defensive backs Brandon Henderson Sr. and Phillip Benning, offensive lineman Kameron Young, and quarterback Robert Kent Jr. On the same day, they released offensive lineman D.J. Brandel and running back Jordan Brown RB. On October 10, the team signed wide receivers/defensive backs Jeff Willis and A-Vel McLamb. On October 17, the Revolution signed running back Darius Fudge and linebacker Deamario Dixon.
On October 27, the team signed defensive backs Emmanuel Souarin, Thailand Pierce, and Levar Hart, quarterback Luke Halpin, defensive lineman Jeremiah Fennell, and linebacker Grail Brewster. On November 4, the team signed offensive lineman Roy Richard plus wide receivers Joshua Reid and Brett Reece Jr. while releasing quarterback Damian Danning. On November 18, the Revolution signed defensive lineman Zane Brown and released defensive lineman Godwin Ubah. On December 10, the team signed offensive lineman Robert Griffin. On January 14, 2015, the team signed linebacker Roger Stewart LB while releasing defensive lineman Rodney Johnson.
Pre-season
As the final roster was being assembled prior to the team's pre-season game against the North Texas Crunch, the Revolution released linebacker Bryan Iwuji, defensive lineman E.J. Nduka, and wide receivers Derrick Herman, Garrett Tidwell, and Jahmal Coleman on February 23. On the same day, the team signed defensive end Jason Sutherland, defensive backs Brian Jackson and Anthony Webb, and running back Corey Austin RB. On February 24, the team signed defensive lineman Dustin Sherer plus wide receivers Ed Young and Will Cole Jr.
Awards and honors
Each week of the regular season, the CIF named league-wide Players of the Week in offensive, defensive, and special teams categories. For Week 4, the CIF named defensive linesman DeMario Dixon as the Defensive Player of the Week. For Week 5, the CIF named kick returner Frankie Solomon Jr. as the Special Teams Player of the Week. The league cited Solomon's 8 kickoff returns for 121 yards in the loss to the Dodge City Law among the factors for the honor. For Week 6, the CIF named wide receiver Brett Reese Jr. as the Offensive Player of the Week.
For Week 8, the CIF named defensive lineman Robert Williams as the Defensive Player of the Week. For Week 9, the CIF named quarterback Robert Kent as the Offensive Player of the Week. For Week 12, the CIF named defensive lineman Taylor McCuller as the Defensive Player of the Week. For Week 13, the CIF again named quarterback Robert Kent]] as the Offensive Player of the Week.
On June 6, the CIF announced the winners of its year-end awards. The Texas Revolution were honored for Dance Team of the Year and Community Relations of the Year, defensive lineman DeMario Dixon was named Defensive Player of the Year, and defensive lineman Robert Williams was named Rookie of the Year.

Billy Russell Kinard (December 16, 1933 – June 30, 2018) was an American football player and coach. He played professionally as a defensive back for the Cleveland Browns and Green Bay Packers of the National Football League (NFL) and the Buffalo Bills of the American Football League (AFL). Kinard played college football at the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss) before being drafted by the Cleveland Browns in the second round of the 1956 NFL Draft. He played professionally for four seasons and retired in 1960. Kinard later served as the head football coach at Ole Miss from 1971 to 1973 and at Gardner–Webb University in 1978, compiling a career coaching record of 20–14–1.
Coaching career
In 1970, Kinard's older brother, a former Ole Miss and NFL star, Frank "Bruiser" Kinard, became the athletic director at Ole Miss. He hired the younger Kinard to be the new Ole Miss Rebels football coach. Billy Kinard was the head coach when Ole Miss football became integrated. It was said that Johnny Vaught had swore to never integrate the football team. So, Billy was brought in to specifically do this. After the third contest of the 1973 season, Johnny Vaught replaced Kinard, returning for his second stint as Ole Miss' athletic director and head football coach.

This article documents events, research findings, scientific and technological advances, and human actions to measure, predict, mitigate, and adapt to the effects of global warming and climate change—during the year 2021.
Summaries
26 February: The United Nations Synthesis Report on Nationally Determined Contributions under the Paris Agreement stated that "estimated reductions referred to in paragraphs (on greenhouse gas emissions) fall far short of what is required, demonstrating the need for Parties to further strengthen their mitigation commitments under the Paris Agreement".
21 June: the World Meteorological Organization wrote that "2021 is a make-or-break year for climate action, with the window to prevent the worst impacts of climate change—which include ever more frequent more intense droughts, floods and storms—closing rapidly."
28 July: a follow-on to the 2019 World Scientists' Warning of a Climate Emergency noted "an unprecedented surge in climate-related disasters since 2019" and stated there is "mounting evidence that we are nearing or have already crossed tipping points associated with critical parts of the Earth system".
6 September: editors from over 200 health journals published a joint editorial stating "The science is unequivocal; a global increase of 1.5 °C above the pre-industrial average and the continued loss of biodiversity risk catastrophic harm to health that will be impossible to reverse.... The greatest threat to global public health is the continued failure of world leaders to keep the global temperature rise below 1.5 °C and to restore nature."
30 September: UN Secretary-General António Guterres stated that "time is running out. Irreversible climate tipping points lie alarmingly close." He called for more ambition as current NDCs will lead to a rise of 2.7 °C, saying that "all leaders must recognize that we are in the middle of a climate emergency".
Measurements and statistics
25 January: a review article published in The Cryosphere reported that Earth lost 28 trillion tonnes of ice between 1994 and 2017, 68% being from atmospheric melting and 32% by oceanic melting. The rate of ice loss rose 57% since the 1990s–from 0.8 to 1.2 trillion tonnes per year–raising global sea level 34.6 ±3.1 mm in that time period.
9 February: a study published in Environmental Research concluded that airborne fine particulate matter (PM2.5) caused by burning fossil fuels causes 8.7 million premature deaths annually, including China (2.4 million), India (2.5 million) and parts of eastern US, Europe and Southeast Asia.
16 February: study results published in the PNAS (study's time period: 1990–2018) reported widespread advances and lengthening of pollen seasons (up to 20 days) and increases in pollen concentrations (up to 21%) across North America, with human forcing of the climate system contributing about 50% of the trend in pollen seasons and about 8% of the trend in pollen concentrations.
Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC):
25 February: a Nature Geoscience article reported an "unprecedented" (since AD 400) decline in the twentieth century of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC), which is now in its weakest state in more than 1,000 years. The AMOC redistributes heat on the planet and has a major impact on climate. In particular, weakness in the AMOC, which includes the Florida Current and the Gulf Stream, counteracts its moderating effect on the climate in Europe.
5 August: a study published in Nature Climate Change presented "spatially consistent empirical evidence that, in the course of the last century, the AMOC may have evolved from relatively stable conditions to a point close to a critical transition".
February: measurements from Mauna Loa Observatory showed that, for the first time, atmospheric levels reached 417 parts per million (ppm), a concentration 50% higher than the 278ppm pre-industrial level.
8 March: a study published in Nature Climate Change—studying the combined effects of average global sea level rise and natural and human-induced subsidence—estimated that subsiding coastal locations may locally experience up to four times more relative sea level rise than could be attributed to global sea level rise alone.
17 March: a study by the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies estimated that, globally between September 2020 and February 2021, 12.5 million people were displaced by adverse impacts of climate change, the annual average exceeding 20 million.
17 March: a study published in Nature estimated that trawling's disturbance of carbon stored in sea beds can re-mineralize sedimentary carbon into amounts equivalent to 15–20% of the atmospheric absorbed by the ocean each year, and comparable to that of terrestrial farming.
18 March: a study accepted for publication in Environmental Research Letters estimated that the severity of heatwave and drought impacts on crop production in Europe roughly tripled over the preceding 50 years, from –2.2 (1964–1990) to -7.3% (1991–2015).
1 April: a study published in Nature Climate Change estimated that anthropogenic climate change has reduced global agricultural total factor productivity by about 21% since 1961, and 26–34% in warmer regions such as Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean.
7 April: NOAA reported carbon dioxide levels were higher than at anytime in the past 3.6 million years, in the Mid-Pliocene Warm Period when sea level was about 24 mm (78 ft) higher than today and the average temperature was about 4 °C (7 °F) higher than in pre-industrial times.
NOAA's redefinition of "average" and "normal":
April: NOAA's Climate Prediction Center (CPC) states it will use 1991–2020 as the new 30-year period of record, with "average" numbers of named Atlantic storms rising from 12 to 14, hurricanes from 6 to 7, and major hurricanes remaining at 3; Eastern Pacific and Central Pacific numbers remain unchanged over 1981–2010.
May: NOAA's NCEI supersedes weather and climate data from 1981–2010 with data from 1991–2020 to change its designation of "Climate Normal", resulting in fewer days being characterized as having "above normal" temperature.
28 April: a study published in Nature attributed 21±3% of the observed sea-level rise from 2000–2019 to melting glaciers (267±16 gigatonnes per year), and identified a mass loss acceleration of 48±16 gigatonnes per year per decade.
11 May: a study published in Nature Communications estimated that land use change affected 32% of the global land area from 1960 to 2019, about four times greater than previously estimated.
20 May: The Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme reported that, from 1971 to 2019, the annually averaged Arctic near-surface air temperature increased by 3.1 °C, three times faster than the global average.
21 May: a study published in Geophysical Research Letters reported that, despite greater raw warming in high latitudes, the tropics have greater normalized warming and actually experienced more record-breaking heat events from 1960 to 2019.
24 May: a study published in Nature Geoscience reported mercury in Greenland ice sheet meltwater being two orders of magnitude higher than from Arctic rivers, and, accounting for about 10% of the estimated global riverine flux, estimated it to be globally significant.
31 May: a study published in Nature Climate Change concluded that 37% of warm-season heat-related deaths from 1991 to 2018 can be attributed to anthropogenic climate change and that increased mortality is evident on every continent.
4 June: a study published in Science Advances concluded that previous estimates of emissions caused by human cultivation of peatlands from 1750 to 2018 should be increased by 18% to account for emissions from cultivated northern peatlands in calculating the carbon budget.
15 June: a study accepted for publication in Geophysical Research Letters reported that satellite and in situ observations independently show an approximate doubling of Earth's Energy Imbalance (EEI) from mid-2005 to mid-2019.
28 July: a study published in Nature Communications revealed a significant positive global energy imbalance based on satellite observations from 2001 to 2020, and concluded that there is less than 1% probability that this imbalance can be explained by natural internal variability of the climate system.
31 August: the WMO published an Atlas of Mortality and Economic Losses from Weather, Climate and Water Extremes (1970–2019), indicating that the number of disasters has increased by a factor of five, driven by climate change, more extreme weather and improved reporting; but because of improved early warnings and disaster management the number of deaths decreased almost three-fold.
1 September: a study published in Nature found that since 2001, fires in the Amazon rainforest had potentially impacted ranges of 77.3–85.2% of threatened species in the region, reducing the biodiversity that contributes to the ecological and climatic stability of the Amazon Basin.
12 October: a study published in the Proceedings of the NAS estimated a nearly 200% increase in urban heat extremes among 13,115 urban areas from 1983 to 2016.
October: The Global Coral Reef Monitoring Network's Status of Coral Reefs of the World reported that "between 2009 and 2018, there was a progressive loss amounting to 14% of the coral from the world's coral reefs, which is more than all the coral currently living on Australia's coral reefs".
30 March 2022: Ember's Global Electricity Review reported that in 2021, wind and solar power reached a record 10% of global electricity, with clean power being 38% of supply, more than coal's 36%. However, demand growth rebounded, leading to a record rise in coal power and emissions.
7 April 2022: NOAA reported an annual increase in global atmospheric methane of 17 parts per billion (ppb) in 2021—averaging 1,895.7 ppb in that year—the largest annual increase recorded since systematic measurements began in 1983. The increase during 2020 was 15.3 ppb, itself a record increase.
Natural events and phenomena
7 February: a rock-ice avalanche in the Chamoli district in the Indian Himalayan Mountains killed dozens and left hundreds missing. The death count grew to 204, with 27 million cubic meters of rock and ice collapsing.
March: a Science Brief review of >90 peer-reviewed scientific articles reported consensus that ocean warming from human-induced climate change is likely fueling more powerful tropical cyclones with increased precipitation rates (through enhanced atmospheric moisture), the increased power and rising sea levels amplifying flooding. Models project that some regions will experience increases in rapid intensification, a poleward migration of the latitude of maximum intensity or a slowing of the forward motion of the storms. Most climate model studies project the annual number of tropical cyclones to decrease or remain approximately the same.
5 March: an article published in Science concluded that the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation is not an internal multidecadal (40- to 60-year) oscillation distinct from climate noise, but is instead a manifestation of competing time-varying effects of anthropogenic greenhouse gases and sulfate aerosols.
11 March: a review article published in Frontiers in Forests and Global Change concluded that warming from non- agents (especially and ) in the Amazon basin largely offsets—and most likely exceeds—the climate change mitigating effect of the region's uptake.
22 March: a study published in Geophysical Research Letters concluded that accelerated decline in terrestrial water storage (TWS) caused by glacial ice melting was the main driver of a rapid eastward drift of the geographic north pole after the 1990s.
26 March: the full bloom date of cherry blossoms in Kyoto, Japan—when the majority of buds are open to the skies—occurred earlier than any time since records began in the year 812 CE; historically, the bloom date occurs about 17 April.
9 April: a study published in Nature Communications citing multiple complementary lines of evidence, reported methane-oxidising bacteria (MOB) dwelling in the bark of Melaleuca quinquenervia (a paper bark tree common in Australia) reduced methane emissions by 36±5%.
13 April: a study of fruitflies published in Nature Communications found that the temperature at which male fertility is lost is much lower than critical thermal limits (CTLs) for survival, suggesting that species, especially tropical species, are more vulnerable to extinction than previously presumed, and that evolution and plasticity are unlikely to rescue populations from extinction.
16 April: Science published results of a study of boreal forests, concluding that forest fires shifted tree dominance from slow-growing black spruce to fast-growing deciduous broadleaf trees, resulting in a net increase in carbon storage and suggesting potential mitigation of the feedback effect of boreal forest fires to global warming.
17 April: winds of Typhoon Surigae rapidly intensified by 170 km/h (105 mph) in 36 hours to reach 306 km/h (190 mph), becoming the strongest typhoon, cyclone or hurricane ever observed in February, March, April or May.
14 June: a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences concluded that Rocky Mountain subalpine forests are burning more than at any point in the past 2,000 years, with contemporary rates of burning being 22% higher than the maximum rate reconstructed over the past two millennia.
18 June: a study published in Nature Communications—accounting for sea level rise, storm surge, and wave runup at exposed open coasts—estimated that globally aggregated annual overtopping hours had increased by almost 50% over the preceding two decades.
Late June: the 2021 Western North America heat wave set a new all-time Canadian temperature record of 49.6 °C (121.28 °F), World Weather Attribution concluding that heat waves of such intensity would be at least 150 times rarer without human-induced climate change.
14 July: a study published in Nature found that the intensification of the dry season and an increase in deforestation seem to promote higher carbon emissions in the eastern Amazon, in line with studies that indicate an increase in tree mortality as a result of climatic changes across Amazonia.
10 August: studying the 2020 heat wave in Siberia, a study published in the PNAS suggested that gas hydrates trapped in carbonate rock formations became unstable, possibly "add(ing) unknown quantities of methane to the atmosphere in the near future"—in addition to that long known to be produced from microbial decay of organic matter.
14 August: the >3000 m peak of the Greenland ice sheet experienced rain for the first known time in recorded history, in one of nine instances in the past 2,000 years in which the temperature exceeded the freezing point.
2 March 2023: a study published in Science said that boreal fires, typically accounting for 10% of global fire emissions, contributed 23% in 2021, by far the highest fraction since 2000. 2021 was an abnormal year because North American and Eurasian boreal forests synchronously experienced their greatest water deficit.
Actions, and goal statements
Science and technology
8 February: XPrize announced a competition to bestow its largest-ever prize, $100 million donated by Elon Musk to be awarded in 2025, for technology to remove carbon from air or water. Winning entries must show an ability to scale up to removing billions of metric tons of carbon.
February: Porsche announced trials to start in 2022 to develop synthetic fuel that it claims will have the same "well to wheel impact"— produced throughout manufacture and sale—as electric vehicles.
February and earlier: Aptera Motors indicated it would produce in 2021 a three-wheel, highly aerodynamic electric vehicle powered by 34 square feet of solar cells, also having rechargeable batteries.
Late February: a Cambridge University study estimated that bitcoin mining energy consumption—at that time on the order of 100 terawatt-hours annually—possessed a carbon footprint equivalent to Argentina's, a figure likely increased by interest in bitcoin in early 2021 from major Wall Street institutions.
March: The Guardian reported on the design of "Vortex Bladeless", a curved-top cylindrical turbine whose main body oscillates resonantly with the wind to generate electricity, the design occupying a much smaller footprint than blade-driven wind turbines.
18 March: a feasibility study published in Nature Sustainability described how suspending solar panels above water canals not only reduces evaporation and mitigates land use, but increases the efficiency of the panels due to the water's cooling effect.
Reported 30 March: taking advantage of generally stronger winds further from shore, the world's first floating windfarm, a 30 megawatt facility 15 mi (24 km) off Aberdeenshire, Scotland, broke records for energy output.
31 March: a study published in the PNAS concluded that if food waste is diverted from landfills to avoid methane emissions, food-waste-derived n-paraffin volatile fatty acid-based sustainable aviation fuels could enable up to a 165% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions relative to fossil-derived aviation fuels.
9 April: the World Economic Forum described how companies can use microorganisms to convert into a protein powder for use in animal feed.
14 May: a study published in Science Advances described a distributed temperature sensing (DTS) system achieving a vertical resolution of ~0.65 m (~25 in.) along a fiber-optic cable, a two-order-of-magnitude improvement over discretely-spaced sensor arrangements. In the Greenland ice sheet, the optical fiber system discovered strong spatial heterogeneity in deformation between and within different ice sections.
8 June: a study published in Environmental Research Letters concluded that artificial ocean alkalinisation (AOA), if carried out with sufficient magnitude and duration, can use current technology to reverse the impact of global ocean acidification on the Great Barrier Reef until atmospheric concentrations return to today's values—possibly centuries in the future.
August reports: in the first customer delivery of its type in history, Swedish company Hybrit said it was delivering "green steel" to truck-maker Volvo AB for prototype vehicles, the steel made using renewable electricity and hydrogen rather than coking coal.
8 September: the largest direct air capture plant, collecting about 4,000 tons of atmospheric } a year to store it underground, began operation in Iceland, selling the most expensive carbon offset in the world for as much as almost $1,400 per ton.
5 October: the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded "for the physical modeling of Earth's climate, quantifying variability and reliably predicting global warming" to atmospheric physicist Syukuro Manabe (modeled a 40 km (25 mi) high vertical column) and Klaus Hasselmann (developed a model incorporating stochastics (chaotic systems) and identifying human "fingerprints" in climatic effects).
Political, economic, legal, and cultural actions
From 1 March 2019: the United Nations declared 2021 to be the beginning of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, having an "aim of supporting and scaling up efforts to prevent, halt and reverse the degradation of ecosystems worldwide and raise awareness of the importance of successful ecosystem restoration".
5 January 2021: a Senate run-off election in the U.S. state of Georgia placed the Democratic party in narrow control of both houses of Congress, as both U.S. Senate Democratic candidates from the state of Georgia, Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff win those elections, improving Democratic President Biden's prospects for implementing climate-related policies. Both Raphael Warnock and Jon Ossoff are supporters and advocates the Green New Deal, proposed for the United States.
15 January: France's Total—among Europe's top energy companies that had accelerated plans to cut emissions and build large renewable energy businesses—became the first major global energy company to quit the American Petroleum Institute lobby group, whose largest members resisted investor pressure to diversify to renewables.
20 January: on the afternoon of his inauguration, U.S. President Joe Biden signed a letter re-committing the nation to the 2015 Paris climate accord, reversing Donald Trump's withdrawal that took formal effect on 4 November 2020 (the U.S. had been the only country in the world not signatory to the accord.)

20 April: a study accepted for publication in Environmental Research Letters concluded that immediately pursuing all presently available methane emission reduction measures could avoid 0.25 °C additional global mean warming by mid-century, and set a path to avoid more than 0.5 °C warming by 2100.
22 April: Swiss re-insurer Swiss Re forecast that, compared to growth levels without climate change, the world will have 11—14% less economic output (as much as $23 trillion less, annually) by 2050.
30 April: a study published in Science Advances projected that the positive feedback effect of crustal rebound as the West Antarctic Ice Sheet melts, could cause an 18% amplification of the 21st century's global mean sea level (GMSL) rise, and 1 meter additional GMSL rise over the next millennium.
5 May: a study published in Nature projected that limiting global warming to 1.5 °C would reduce the land ice contribution to sea level rise by 2100 from 25 cm to 13 cm (from 10 to 6 in.), with glaciers responsible for half the sea level rise contribution.
5 May: a study published in Nature used an observationally calibrated ice sheet–shelf model to project that with 2 °C global warming, Antarctic ice loss will continue at its current pace; but that current policies would allow 3 °C warming and give an abrupt jump around 2060 to an order of magnitude increase in the rate of sea-level rise (to 0.5 cm/yr) by 2100.
5 May: a study accepted for publication in Environmental Research Letters reported that greenhouse gas emissions have heated the troposphere and cooled the stratosphere so that stratospheric thickness has shrunk over decades, and projected an additional thinning of 1.3 km by 2080 if Earth follows an RCP 6.0 scenario.
5 May: The United Nations Environment Programme's Global Methane Assessment forecast that human-caused methane emissions can be reduced by up to 45 percent this decade and would avoid nearly 0.3 °C of global warming by 2045, and can be consistent with keeping the 1.5˚C goal for the century.
May: Bloomberg NEF projected that by 2027, battery-powered electric vehicle prices would reach price parity with internal combustion engine vehicles in all light vehicle segments in Europe.
20 May: a study published in Nature Communications applied palaeoecological evidence (14,000–3600 years ago) to conclude that alpine areas actually developed less plant biodiversity with the upward advance of forest treelines, the researchers' simulation projecting a substantive decrease in plant biodiversity in response to global warming-related treeline rise.
20 May: the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Programme reported climate models projecting that the probability of an ice-free Arctic summer is 10 times greater under a 2 °C global warming scenario compared with a 1.5 °C scenario.
26 May: an article published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences projected that under RCP 8.5 ("business as usual" scenario), the temperature experienced by an average human will change more in coming decades than over the past six millennia; the mean human-experienced temperature rise by 2070 will amount to an estimated 7.5 °C—about 2.3 times the mean global temperature rise; and 3.5 billion people will be exposed to mean annual temperature ≥29.0 °C−presently found in 0.8% of the global land surface (mainly the Sahara) but projected to cover 19% of global land in 2070.
29 July: a study published in Nature Communications estimated that adding 4,434 metric tons of —the lifetime emissions of 3.5 average Americans—will cause one excess death globally between 2020 and 2100. The study included only heat-related mortality impacts, and not indirect impacts such as flooding, storms, and crop failures.

Juan José Muñante López (12 June 1948 – 23 April 2019) was a Peruvian footballer who played in a right winger role.
Biography
Nicknamed The Jet in Peru and The Cobra in Mexico. He was famous for having great speed (he could run 100 metres in 10.7 seconds flat and was almost as quick with a ball at his feet), and also for his skills with the ball and his relatively high assist for teammate for passing the ball to the scorer, given his position of right winger.
He debuted in the Primera División with Sport Boys in the 1966 season. In 1969, he joined Universitario de Deportes where he was part of the team that won 2 Peru league championships and he helped reach second place at the Copa Libertadores 1972.
Muñante also played successfully in the Mexican League for many years, mainly in Pumas de la UNAM and Atlético Español.
Muñante played 48 times for the Peru national football team between 1967 and 1978, including participation in the 1978 FIFA World Cup.
On 23 April 2019, Muñante died of lung cancer in the U.S. state of Florida, at the age of 70.

Lennox Grafton (3 December 1919 – 24 March 2017) was a Canadian architect and one of the first women to be trained as architects in Canada. She completed her undergraduate education in University of Alberta during 1938-1941 and graduated from the architectural program in University of Toronto in 1950. Grafton's early works during the same decade focused on schools, churches, and commercial building. These works were complete while she worked in several of Toronto architectural firms. In 1960 she started her own architectural practice, but had to eventually shutter it due to the lack of available funding to scale the business to acquire larger projects.
Following her entrepreneurial venture, Grafton joined Public Works Canada in 1967 and in the following decade was responsible for designing residential schools for the Canadian government most notably for Attawapiskat and Kashechewan in Northern Ontario. As a design and project architect, her work can be found in many communities throughout Ontario. Grafton indicated that the work was quite challenging but interesting. She was pivotal in the overall design the Attawapiskat school and overcoming the technical challenges of constructing the building posed by the location's soil structure, weather and temperature.
Activism
During the 1980s and 1990s, Grafton actively participated in "For the Record", a project organized by the Ontario Women Graduates and funded by the Ontario Heritage Foundation, which sought to document women architects graduating from the University of Toronto architectural program between the 1920s and 1960s.

Vasily Ivanovich Kuznetsov (Russian: Василий Иванович Кузнецов; – 20 June 1964) was a Soviet general and a Hero of the Soviet Union.
Life and career
Kuznetsov was born to a working-class family in Ust-Usolka, Solikamsky Uyezd, Perm Governorate. In April 1915 he was drafted into the Imperial Russian Army, taking part in World War I. In March 1916 he completed officer training in Kazan, attaining the rank of a Podporuchik in July.
In August 1918, after the October Revolution, he joined the Red Army, serving in the Russian Civil War first as a company commander and later as a deputy regimental commander. In October 1923 he was appointed commander of 89th Rifle Regiment.
He joined the Communist Party in 1928. During 1929 he undertook advanced officers' training, and he graduated from the Frunze Academy in 1936. In October 1936 he became the 99th Rifle Division's commander. In July 1937, he was transferred to head the 16th Rifle Corps.
During September 1939, Komkor Kuznetsov participated in the Invasion of Poland as chief of the Vitebsk and Polotsk Army Groups. On 4 June 1940, with the introduction of new ranks, he became a lieutenant general.
World War 2
On 22 June 1941, Kuznetsov's 3rd Army was stationed in Belarus, as part of the Western Front. It was overwhelmed and surrounded by German forces. In July, he and the remains of his formation broke out and returned to the Soviet lines. This feat earned him praise from Stalin when he issued Order No. 270. In late August, he was sent to command the Southwestern Front's 21st Army, but his force suffered crushing defeat once more in the Battle of Kiev. On October, he was appointed to command the Kharkov Military District, but reassigned to head the 1st Shock Army on 23 November, with which he took part in the Battle of Moscow. His units liberated Klin and Solnechnogorsk.
In February 1942, the Army relocated to the north, taking part in the Demyansk operation. On July, Kuznetsov was given command of the 63rd Army, positioned near Stalingrad. The formation was renamed 1st Guards Army on November. For his conduct in the campaign, Kuznetsov was awarded the Order of Suvorov 1st Class. On 25 March 1943 he was promoted to the rank of Colonel General. The 1st Guards later took part in the battles for the Donbass region and in the Dniepr crossing. On 15 December, Kuznetsov was appointed Bagramyan's deputy in the 1st Baltic Front. In this capacity he participated in the campaigns for Belarus, the Baltics and East Prussia. The Front was disbanded on late February 1945, and Kuznetsov assumed command over the 1st Belorussian's 3rd Shock Army on 16 March. The Army was involved in the urban fighting inside Berlin; On 30 April, one of its formations, the 150th Rifle Division, stormed the Reichstag. Its soldiers hoisted the Victory Banner atop of the building.
Post-war career
On 29 May 1945, Kuznetsov was awarded the title Hero of the Soviet Union (Medal no. 6460) for his performance. After the war, he remained the 3rd Army's commander in Germany for a while, then attended the Voroshilov Academy, graduating in 1948. He served as chairman of the Voluntary Society for Cooperation with the Army and later of DOSAAF. From 1953 to 1957, he headed the Volga Military District. Until his retirement in 1960, he served in the Ministry of Defense. Kuznetsov was a deputy in the 2nd and 4th Convocations of the Supreme Soviet. He died in Moscow in 1964.

In dentistry, the approximal surfaces are those surfaces which form points of contact between adjacent teeth. However, in diastematic individuals these surfaces may not make contact but are still considered approximal. Due to the topography of approximal sites the removal of plaque by brushing may be difficult and hence a significant build-up may occur increasing the risk of plaque-related diseases such as dental caries or gingivitis. It is recommended that teeth be professionally cleaned every six months, in part, to avoid this build-up and therefore maintain the health of the dentition and surrounding tissues.

The Nordisk Kemiteknolog Konferens (English: Conference for Nordic Students of Applied Chemistry) is a conference with the goal of letting students of applied chemistry collaborate with colleagues in the Nordic countries.
NKK was first thought of and put to action more than thirty years ago, in the 1970s. The aim of the conferences was to let students of applied chemistry meet their colleagues from Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Norway. The original universities involved in the project were those of KTH (Stockholm), Uppsala, Chalmers (Gothenburg), Aalto (TKK) (Helsinki), Turku, DTU (Copenhagen), NTH (Trondheim), Luleå, Umeå and Linköping. During the conferences, which are summoned once a year in one of the above-mentioned cities according to an established system of circulation, the host city is to present industry typical for its region. The original language of the conference was Swedish, but with the addition of the technical university of Tallinn from Estonia in 2006, the official language of the conference is now English.
The NKK has evolved into an annual happening in which about 50 privileged students of applied chemistry, usually the most active ones of their student organisations and members of their boards, come together to get acquainted with each other, visit companies of their own future trade, have parties together and discussions of what topics might be of current interest at the time being. The participants have usually been able to take part in NKK free of charge, thanks to the companies sponsoring NKK. It has been a relationship of mutual benefit for the NKK organisation and the sponsoring companies; the companies have got a lot of positive publicity amongst a group of future professionals in their own trade, and moreover, as the participants usually are in quite prominent positions in their respective organisations, the knowledge of the participating companies usually have a good spreading around the Nordic countries.

The subscapularis is a large triangular muscle which fills the subscapular fossa and inserts into the lesser tubercle of the humerus and the front of the capsule of the shoulder-joint.
Structure
The subscapularis is covered by a dense fascia which attaches to the scapula at the margins of the subscapularis' attachment (origin) on the scapula.
The muscle's fibers pass laterally from its origin before coalescing into a tendon of insertion. The tendon intermingles with the glenohumeral (shoulder) joint capsule.
A bursa (which communicates with the cavity of the shoulder joint via an aperture in the joint capsule) intervenes between the tendon and a bare area at the lateral angle of the scapula/the neck of the scapula. The subscapularis (supraserratus) bursa separates the subscapularis is from the serratus anterior.
Origin
It arises from its medial two-thirds of the costal surface of the scapula, the intermuscular septa (which create ridges upon the scapula), and the lower two-thirds of the groove on the axillary border (subscapular fossa) of the scapula.
Some fibers arise from tendinous laminae, which intersect the muscle and are attached to ridges on the bone; others from an aponeurosis, which separates the muscle from the teres major and the long head of the triceps brachii.
Insertion
It inserts onto the lesser tubercle of the humerus and the anterior part of the shoulder-joint capsule. Tendinous fibers extend to the greater tubercle with insertions into the bicipital groove.
Innervation
The subscapularis is supplied by the upper and lower subscapular nerves (C5-C6), branches of the posterior cord of the brachial plexus.
Actions/movements
The subscapularis medially (internally) rotates the humerus (acting here as a prime mover) and adducts it. When the arm is raised, it draws the humerus forward and downward.
Function
The subscapularis stabilises the shoulder joint by contributing to the fixation of the proximal humerus during movements of the elbow, wrist, and hand. It is a powerful defense to the front of the shoulder-joint, preventing displacement of the head of the humerus.
Clinical significance
Examination
It is difficult to isulate the action of the subscapularis from other medial rotators of the shoulder joint; there is no satisfactory test for this muscle. The Gerber Lift-off test is the established clinical test for examination of the subscapularis. The bear hug test (internal rotation while palm is held on opposite shoulder and elbow is held in a position of maximal anterior translation) for subscapularis muscle tears has high sensitivity. Positive bear-hug and belly press tests indicate significant tearing of subscapularis.
Imaging
There is no singularly imaging device or technique for a satisfying and complete subscapularis examination, but rather the combination of the sagittal oblique MRI / short-axis US and axial MRI / long-axis US planes seems to generate useful results. Additionally, lesser tuberosity bony changes have been associated with subscapularis tendon tears. Findings with cysts seem to be more specific and combined findings with cortical irregularities more sensitive.
Another fact typically for the subscapularis muscle is the fatty infiltration of the superior portions, while sparing the inferior portions.
Since the long biceps tendon absents itself from the shoulder joint through the rotator cuff interval, it is easily possible to distinguish between the supraspinatus and the subscapularis tendon. Those two tendons build the interval sling.
Ultrasonography
Mack et al. developed an ultrasonographic procedure with which it is possible to explore almost the complete rotator cuff within six steps. It unveils clearly the whole area from the subedge of the subscapularis tendon until the intersection between the infraspinatus tendon and musculus teres minor. One of six steps does focus on the subscapularis tendon. In the first instance the examinator guides the applicator to the proximal humerus as perpendicularly as possible to the sulcus intertubercularis. Gliding now medially shows the insertion of the subscapularis tendon.
Longitudinal plane of the musculus subscapularis and its tendon
The subscapularis tendon lies approximately 3 to 5 cm under the surface. Quite deep for ultrasonography, and therefore displaying through a highly penetrative 5 MHz linear applicator is worth a try. And it really turned out to ease a detailed examination of the muscle which just abuts to the scapula. However, the tendon of primary interest does not get mapped as closely as desired. As anatomical analysis showed, it is only by external rotation possible to see the ventral part of the joint socket and its labrum. While at the neutral position the tuberculum minus occludes the view. Summing up it is through an external arm rotation and a medially applied 5 MHz sector sonic head possible to display the ventral part of the joint socket and its labrum with notedly lower echogenicity.
The following sectional planes are defined for the sonographic examination of the different shoulder joint structures:
Tissue harmonic imaging
Primarily in abdominal imaging, tissue harmonic imaging (THI) gets more and more valued and used additionally to conventional ultrasonography.
THI involves the use of harmonic frequencies that originate within the tissue as a result of nonlinear wave front propagation and are not present in the incident beam. These harmonic signals may arise differently at anatomic sites with similar impedances and thus lead to higher contrast resolution." Along with higher contrast resolution it has an elevated signal-to-noise ratio and significantly reduced inter- and intraobserver variability compared with conventional US. Additionally it is possible to nearly eliminate ordinary US artifacts, i.e. side-lobe, near-field artifacts, reverberation artifacts. As aforementioned THI has already led to enhanced abdominal, breast, vascular and cardiac sonography.
For musculo-skeletal aspects THI has not been used that much, although this method features some useful potential. For example, for the still tricky discrimination between the presence of a hypoechoic defect and/or loss of the outer tendon convexity/non-visualization of the tendon, that is between partial- and full-thickness rotator cuff tears.
In comparison to a checking MR Arthrography Strobel K. et al. has arrived at the conclusion that through THI it is possible to achieve a generally improved visibility of joint and tendon surfaces, especially superior for subscapularis tendon abnormalities.

2000 Malibu Road is an American prime time soap opera television series that aired on CBS during the summer from August 23 to September 9, 1992. The series stars Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Beals, Brian Bloom, Scott Bryce, Lisa Hartman, Tuesday Knight and Michael T. Weiss.
Plot
The show deals with four women living together at a beach house located at 2000 Malibu Road: Jade (Lisa Hartman), a former prostitute trying to get out of the profession; Perry (Jennifer Beals), a young lawyer also escaping from her past (i.e. a slain fiancé police officer and a serious drinking problem); Lindsay (Drew Barrymore), a would-be actress trying to get the right break; and Joy (Tuesday Knight), Lindsay's overweight, overprotective, two-faced, manipulative sister, who also serves as her agent. Jade owns the house. In order to leave her profession as a high priced prostitute, she takes in roommates to help her pay for the house.
The series ends with several unresolved cliffhangers: Roger (Michael T. Weiss) is seen raping and beating Perry in a stairwell. Meanwhile, Porter's (Mitch Ryan) men shoot Hal (Robert Foxworth) dead, and after arguing with Lindsay upon discovering she was sleeping with Eric (Brian Bloom), Joy is struck by lightning. Lisa Hartman provided a closing narration to provide a perfunctory resolution for the characters, though possibly only for overseas broadcasts.

Episodes
Joel Schumaker directed at least the first five of the series' episodes.
Reception
The series premiere earned decent ratings, but ratings fell from there and it was canceled after six episodes. According to executive producer Aaron Spelling, producers could not come to terms on license fees. However, Lisa Hartman had another version: as 2000 Malibu Road was facing Melrose Place in the same timeslot, Spelling was competing with himself and didn't want to weaken the ratings of Melrose Place.

National School of Administration and Magistracy (ENAM) Cameroon, established in Yaounde in 1959, is a large school of higher education whose main mission is the training and development of high officials of the Cameroonian government. It is a public institution with a public personality and financial autonomy. It is under the technical supervision of the Ministry of Public Service and Administrative Reform.
History
The original name at creation is the Cameroon School of Administration (ECA). This school is the main crucible of administrators of the Cameroonian civil service since the independence of Cameroon on May 1, 1960. In 1961, the school opens a special cycle to prepare for the entrance examination to the normal cycles of candidates from the under-educated regions. Cameroon has two official national languages since independence and reunification. As a result, in 1963, a preparatory cycle for the entrance examination to Cycle A and B for English-speaking candidates were launched. The major change came in 1964: The Cameroon School of Administration (ECA) became the Normal School of Administration and Magistracy (ENAM). The main mission also changed. It is now necessary to train the civil and financial personnel of the State, as well as the magistrates of the judiciary. In 1985, ENAM became part of the National Center for Administration and Magistracy (CENAM) with the Higher Institute of Public Management (ISMP) and the Institute of Administrative and Financial Techniques (ITAF). 1995 marks the reopening of cycles A and B for the training of civil and financial service personnel. This year also marks the creation of the Research and Documentation Center for administrative problems. 2010 marks the opening of admission to the Judicial Division to graduates of Computer Science and Economics of Higher Education. Since 2012, graduates in computer science and economics of higher education compete for admission to the Division of the Judiciary and Transplants.
Teaching
Initial training on competition
Entrance examinations
The decrees of the Minister of Public Service and Administrative Reform, opening the competition, set the uniform conditions for all candidates. The number of eligible places is prorated according to the requests of administrations. The competitions take place in the unique center of Yaounde. Access modes in the first year are identical for the competition internally and externally.
For the internal competition, only public servants aged 45 and over with at least 5 years of professional seniority may compete for the B cycle. They must submit an authorization provided by the Ministry of Public Service. and administrative reform.
For the external competition, candidates must have a Baccalaureate or Advance Level (A/L) certificates for Cycle B and be at least 32 years old at the time of the competition. For Cycle A, candidates must have a bachelor's degree or other equivalent degree. The master's degree in law is required for the auditors of justice.
The exam period is between April and June. The exam fees are unique and amount to 15,000 FCFA. The duration of the training depends on the cycle chosen. It consists of two years of training for cycles A and clerk and one year of training for cycle B. The competition is held at the unique center which is the political capital Yaoundé. The subjects on which we compete are the following:
Curriculum
ENAM provides its students with a two-year continuing education program. According to the divisions the teachings are as follows:
Administrative Division: The sections are as follows: - General Administration - Prices, Weights and Measures - Labor Administration - Hospital Administration.
Financial Regulatory Division: The sections are as follows: Customs - Taxes - Treasury - Accounting Matter.
Judicial Division: The sections are as follows: Magistracy – Court Registrar.
Language and New Technologies Division of Information and Communication: Here we have two cells: Linguistics - ICT.
Opportunities
ENAM students are integrated directly into the civil service and become public servants. They are classified as A1 for those in Cycle B and A2 for those in Cycle A.
Controversies
The entry examination to ENAM is generally tainted with controversies that challenge the objective and transparent character of eligibility.
In 2004, eighty-eight (88) candidates in the ENAM competition received a three-year suspension, all examinations in all university courses for "fraud" and "attempted fraud".
In February 2006, Benjamin Amama Amam, then Minister of Public Service and Vocational Training, ordered the cancellation of the ENAM results competitions for the 2005-2006 session, following a January 2006 report denounces exam fraud. He later reversed his decision by order of Jules Doret Ndongo, then Secretary General of the Prime Minister's Office.
In October 2009, Dr. Shanda Tomne, then Chairperson of the Independent Commission Against Corruption and Discrimination (COMICODI), sends a letter of denunciation of the results of the first-year entrance examination of the Judicial Division, Judicial Section, to the Director General of ENAM.
In 2012, Prime Minister Philemon Yang instructed the Director General of ENAM, Linus Toussaint Mendjana, the exclusion of six students who were admitted on the sole instruction of the Speaker of the National Assembly Cavaye Yeguié Djibril, and not by competition.

Tomlinson Fort (July 14, 1787 – May 11, 1859) was a doctor, politician, and banker in the state of Georgia during the first half of the nineteenth century. He was a member of the Georgia House of Representatives and United States House of Representatives from Georgia.
Early years and education
Fort was born in Warrenton, Georgia on July 14, 1787. He completed preparatory studies and then embarked on the study of medicine. In 1809, he received one term of medical training at the Philadelphia Medical College, and commenced practice in 1810. It was a medical career which eventually spanned four decades. Shortly after taking up the practice of medicine, during the War of 1812, Fort enlisted in a volunteer company of Georgia Militia, and was elected captain.
Political career
Fort was a member of the Georgia House of Representatives for four terms, from 1818 to 1826. During his tenure in the State Legislature, he was instrumental in the formation of the Medical College of Georgia, and the state lunatic asylum in Milledgeville. He was elected as a Jacksonian candidate to the 20th United States Congress and served one term from March 4, 1827, to March 3, 1829.
Later years
He resumed the practice of medicine in Milledgeville, Georgia. He was president of the Central Bank of Georgia for almost a decade, during which time he helped finance construction of the Western and Atlantic Railroad. Tomlinson Fort died on May 11, 1859, in Milledgeville. He is buried in the City Cemetery.

Amandah Wilkinson (born ), is a New Zealand-Australian pop musician from the Gold Coast, Queensland. She was the founding mainstay lead singer and guitarist of Operator Please from 2005 to 2011, which released two studio albums before splitting. Wilkinson went solo as Bossy Love in 2011 and used the same name when forming a duo in 2013 with John Baillie Jnr, ex-lead vocalist and drummer of Scottish pop-rock group Dananananaykroyd (2006–2011). As from 2016 they are based in Glasgow and released their debut album, Me + U, in October 2019 via Double-A Side Records.
Biography
Amandah Wilkinson was born in Australia to an Indonesian mother and an English father. She was raised in New Plymouth and Christchurch with an older sibling, whom she describes as "a huge influence, musically and artistically." In 1997 the family moved to Australia and settled on the Gold Coast, Queensland. After seeing American musical comedy film, Josie and the Pussycats (2001), and listening to its related soundtrack, Wilkinson decide to pursue a career in pop music.
While a secondary student at Elanora State High School in 2005 she canvassed fellow students to form a teen pop group, Operator Please. Alongside Wilkinson on lead vocals and guitar were Tim Commandeur on drums, Sarah-Jane Gardiner on keyboards, Stephanie Joske on violin and Ashley McConnell on bass guitar, who were all aged from 17 to 19. They entered and won a local Battle of the Bands competition, soon after Joske was replaced by Taylor Henderson on violin. As a member of Operator Please, Wilkinson co-wrote most of their tracks for both studio albums, Yes Yes Vindictive (2007) and Gloves (2010), and the associated singles and extended plays. She also co-produced Gloves with Justin Tresidder.
While Operator Please were supporting English band the Futureheads in 2008 in Dundee, Wilkinson met the lead vocalist and drummer John Baillie Jnr of fellow support act, Dananananaykroyd. When her group had ended in 2011 Wilkinson started performing as Bossy Love and issued a single, "Fight This Off", which featured rapping by Kween G (Giladesi Namokoyi) in December. Wilkinson moved to London in 2012 to continue writing material. She sent one of her tracks to Baillie in Glasgow and he produced a recording for her. The pair continued collaborating and Bossy Love became a duo in 2013.
While living in London Wilkinson also worked for the railways, on weekends she would travel to Glasgow to perform and co-write with Baillie. Their debut mixtape, Hollidates, appeared in November 2014. After Bossy Love achieved a residency at the Bongo Club, Edinburgh, Wilkinson relocated to Glasgow. The duo released a single, "Want Some", in March 2016. In August 2017 they performed at the Belladrum Festival. Bossy Love issued their debut album, Me + U, on 31 October 2019 via Double-A Side Records. Max Sefton of The Skinny observed, "[it's] the work of a talented duo but it's surely a record that will win them many more friends and admirers." Me + U was short-listed for the 2020 Scottish Album of the Year Award.

Illbient is a genre of electronic music and an art movement that originated among hip hop-influenced experimental musicians from New York City in the early 1990s. The word "illbient" combines the hip hop slang term "ill" and "ambient"; DJ Olive and DJ Spooky, pioneers of the genre, have claimed to have coined the term.
Though there are many individualistic variants of illbient, the music is characterized by dub- and industrial-influenced layering of beats and soundscapes, hip hop-influenced use of breaks and samples, and a progressive approach to beat programming that encompasses many forms of world music and electronic music.
Besides DJ Olive and DJ Spooky, other notable names and acts that were part of the original illbient scene included Raz Mesinai, We™, Byzar, Spectre and the artists that were released on his WordSound label around that time. Subsequent illbient artists have included Techno Animal, Sixtoo and Odd Nosdam.

Wiske (English: Wanda, Suzy, Bobette, Lucy) is one of the main characters in the popular Belgian comic strip Suske en Wiske by Willy Vandersteen. She is the girl of the duo. Together with Lambik she is one of the most popular characters in the franchise.
History
Wiske made her debut in the very first Suske and Wiske story "Rikki en Wiske in Chocowakije" (1945) ("Rikki and Wiske in Chocowakije"). Her companion in this story is her older and stronger brother Rikki, who was written out of the series at the start of the next story "Het Eiland Amoras" (1945-1946) ("The Isle of Amoras"). When Wiske travelled to the isle of Amoras along with Tante Sidonia and Professor Barabas she met Suske there, who took Rikki's place as her male companion.
Wiske is adopted by her aunt, Tante Sidonia. It is never directly implied, but just like Suske she is likely an orphan, as her parents are never seen around.
Vandersteen named Wiske after the Flemish opera singer Wiske Ghijs. Her real name is "Louisa", but this is hardly used in the series. The nickname "Wiske" is a Flemish diminutive form of "Louisa".
Character
Contrary to Suske Wiske is more flawed as a person. She is stubborn, prone to anger and jealousy, too curious for her own good and can be vain, disobedient, lazy and impulsive. However, she still has a heart of gold. Her impulsiveness and curiosity often bring her and others in trouble. This also explains why more stories center around her than the good-natured Suske. Just like Lambik Wiske is one of the most popular characters in the franchise because readers can relate to her human personality flaws more.
Relation with Suske
Suske and Wiske are best friends, despite quarreling once in a while. One of the recurring storylines is Wiske's jealousy whenever Suske receives attention from other young, attractive females.
Schanulleke
Wiske has a little doll, Schanulleke, whom she carries along with her wherever she goes. She adores her doll so much that she is heartbroken whenever it is lost or someone threatens to destroy it.
Wiske's story-concluding wink
Wiske traditionally concludes every story by winking at the audience, which has become a trademark of the franchise.
In spin-offs
Suske plays the central role in the spin-off series Amoras. The first volume is named after him. He is also the central character in the junior version Klein Suske en Wiske ("Little Suske and Wiske").
In popular culture
Both she and Suske have their own statue in the Antwerp Zoo in Antwerp. It was sculpted by René Rosseel in 1978. They also have a statue in Middelkerke, sculpted by Monique Mol in 2002.
On June 15, 1995 an illustrated wall was dedicated to Suske and Wiske in the Laekenstraat in Brussels, Belgium.
Suske and Wiske are also part of an illustrated wall in the Korte Ridderstraat 8 in Antwerp, which was revealed on May 13, 2006. On April 24, 2009 a similar wall was revealed in Kalmthout.
In the 1975-1976 Dutch TV puppet series Suske en Wiske Wiske's voice was done by Helen Huisman.
In the 1994 musical "De Stralende Sterren" Hilde Vanhulle played the part of Wiske. In the 2002, musical "De Spokenjagers" Wiske was played by Femke Stoop. Liesbeth De Wolf played Wiske in the 2008 musical "De Circusbaron".
In the 2004 live-action film Céline Verbeeck played Wiske. In the 2009 3-D animated feature film Luke and Lucy: The Texas Rangers Evelien Verhegge played Lucy (Wiske).

Mansfield Legacy High School is a public secondary school located in Mansfield, Texas, United States.
The school is a part of the Mansfield Independent School District and serves sections of the city of Mansfield, Arlington, as well as unincorporated sections of Tarrant County. Legacy is built on the location of the men’s club. When Mansfield was a small rural community (in the southeast of Ft. Worth), the Kowbell Rodeo was a popular stopping place for cowboys. The land on former US Highway 287, now Business 287, was the place to go for an indoor rodeo experience.
History
William H. (Bill) Hogg, a lifetime resident of Mansfield, opened the Kowbell Indoor Rodeo in 1959. Rodeos were held each Saturday night, year around. The Arena was built originally with an open roof and a canvas top that could be lowered for shelter during inclement weather.
The Kowbell Rodeo closed, and the property was sold to MISD in 2004. Because of Mansfield's fast population growth, MISD administrators purchased the historic location to build the district's fourth high school. After clearing land and deciding on blueprints, newly hired principal, David Wright, formed a committee to create the school's name and mascot. Legacy fit perfectly. Broncos fit even better. In June 2006, committee members chose red and black as the colors. Legacy High School was turned over to MISD in June 2007 by the builder and school opened, with over 2,100 students, on August 27, 2007.

Farim is the name of an impact crater on the planet Mars, located inside a chain of unnamed craters bordering the northern rim of the larger Kepler crater. The crater's name, approved by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) on 11 March 2013, is derived from the town of Farim in Guinea-Bissau. Farim crater was described as a feature on Mars as early as 1971 in that year's edition of the Times Atlas of the World, and recently became of interest to scientists working on the 2001 Mars Odyssey mission, after the spacecraft's THEMIS camera made two surveys of Farim in December 2016.
Description
Farim crater is wide, and forms part of a cluster of craters located directly north of Kepler crater in Terra Cimmeria, a mostly crater-dominated region of the planet. It is also located within the Eridania quadrangle. The crater has been described by NASA as "relatively new", with ejecta material surrounding the crater, including some visible across the floor of its northern neighboring unnamed crater, being identifiable in THEMIS imagery of Farim in December 2016. Ejecta from the crater can be seen as far as away from the crater's rim, traversing the rim of the larger unnamed crater in which Farim resides. The crater was further described by NASA as possessing gullies within its rim, and "a bowl shape [that shows] there has been very little deposition of materials." The crater's age is unknown, but it is relatively younger in comparison to surrounding craters in the region.

Kabuli pulao (, , also transcribed as Kabuli pulaw or Qabeli palaw, Kabeli palaw) is a variety of pilaf made in Afghanistan.
The core ingredients are steamed rice mixed with caramelized carrots and raisins as well as marinated lamb meat. Qabeli Palaw is commonly garnished with almonds and pistachios. Saffron may be added to either the rice, the sauce or the garnishes. Varieties of Qabeli palaw have spread from Afghanistan to different parts of Western and Central Asia.
Spelling
Aside from the mistranscription of Qabeli to "Kabuli", another common source of misspelling is the romanization of palaw |pɒ:laʊ| as "pulao". Palaw dishes form a specific and longstanding tradition of rice preparation in Afghanistan, likely dating back as far as Bactrian times. In terms of etymology palaw constitutes the classical pronunciation of Persian پلاو wherein the sharp diphthong "aw" or /aʊ/ is preserved. This diphthong should be pronounced closely akin to the English word cow /kaʊ/ and is therefore incorrectly romanized with the spelling "pulao".
Pulao instead refers to a distinct subgroup of pilaf as made on the Indian subcontinent and reflects a differing pronunciation as shaped by local language.
Name
Even though frequently misnamed "Kabuli palaw", the dish did not originate in Kabul. The more likely place of origin is Northern Afghanistan, specifically the border region with Uzbekistan. A variation of Qabeli palaw made by Uzbeks within Afghanistan is also referred to Uzbaki palaw. The Uzbaki version differs from traditional Afghan palaw preparation in that it doesn't first soak, then parboil, then steam the rice until fluffy, but rather just boils the rice until all liquid has been absorbed.
To add to the naming confusion Afghan émigrés in Dubai and Istanbul marketed this dish as Bukhari rice, again hinting at a possible origin within the Afghanistan and Uzbekistan border region. As bukhari rice dishes have gained popularity in the Gulf region, those local preparations often differ greatly from authentic Qabeli palaw.
Serving
Qabeli palaw is considered a festive and important dish due to the emphasis on quality of the ingredients, as well as being a widely known dish of Afghan cuisine. The dish may be served as a main course, accompanied by traditional side dishes or prepared as part of a banquet.

Doukas Gaitatzis () also known under the nom de guerre as Kapetan Zervas (Greek: Καπετάν Ζέρβας) was a significant Greek chieftain of the Macedonian Struggle.
Biography
Doukas Gaitatzis was born around 1879 in Serres, to one of the richest families of the area. In 1900, he joined the Macedonian Defense and collaborated with the Greek Consul of Serres, Ioannis Stournaras. He became an agent and informant of the National Center of Serres, trying to limit the early terrorist activity of the Bulgarian komitadjis.
After a failed attempt to exterminate the Bulgarian agent Stoyan in Rahovitsa (now Marmaras), he was forced to flee to Athens, where he met with Georgios Tsontos. He arrived in Western Macedonia in 1904 as a deputy in the armed group of Georgios Katechakis (Captain Rouvas) along with Dimitrios Dalipis and Simos Ioannidis. He soon assumed command of guerrilla forces operating throughout Western Macedonia and in the Giannitsa area. In 1905, head of an armed group of 20 people, he moved his area of activity to Eastern Macedonia. There he managed to confront the Bulgarian komitadjis and participated in various battles in the areas of Amphipolis, Nea Zichni, Nevrokop (now Gotse Delchev, Sintice and Pangaion Hills).
He also took part in the battle of Gratsiani (now Agiochori), where the komitadji Todor Panitsa was exterminated.
He also took part in both Balkan Wars, head of 100 soldiers in Pangaion Hills. With decisive actions he succeeded in liberating Pravi (now Eleftheroupoli) during the Second Balkan War.
In 1936, he was elected Member of the Prefecture of Serres with the Freethinkers' Party of Ioannis Metaxas.
He died in 1938 in Paris.

Lewys Daron (fl. c. 1495 – c. 1530) was a Welsh-language professional poet from the Llŷn area of Gwynedd, Wales. Although not considered to be one of the foremost of the Poets of the Nobility, his work provides a portrait of the gentry society of north-west Wales at the start of the Tudor period.
On the basis of his name and a reference to him in a later 16th-century manuscript in the hand of the antiquary Thomas Wiliems, it can confidently be accepted that he was a native of the parish of Aberdaron in Llŷn. His date of birth is not known and our knowledge of him depends almost entirely on the evidence of his poetry, of which 28 poems survive. He was a friend of the Anglesey poet Lewys Môn, one of the most important poets of that period. He probably died in the early 1530s and was buried in Nefyn.
Lewys Daron sang to patrons in Arfon, Meirionnydd, Eifionydd and Llŷn, an area corresponding to the modern county of Gwynedd in north-west Wales. His poems, in the Welsh traditional metres, include awdlau and cywyddau. His patrons included the Stradlings and the gentry families of Penrhyn, Bodfel, Bodeon, Glynllifon, Carreg, Cochwillan (near Bethesda), Plas Iolyn (near Ysbyty Ifan) and others.
He is perhaps best known for his elegy (marwnad) to the renowned poet Tudur Aled (d. 1526), whom he knew. His work includes a cywydd on behalf of three ladies of Anglesey requesting a millstone for the parish church of Nefyn and another cywydd on behalf of Sir John Wynn of Gwydir asking for a stallion from Dafydd, Prior of Beddgelert. He also wrote a praise poem to Pîrs Conwy, Archdeacon of Llanelwy (St Asaph).

The Scenic Subdivision or Scenic Sub is a railroad line running about 155 miles (249 km) from Seattle, Washington to Wenatchee, Washington. It is operated by BNSF Railway as part of their Northern Transcon. This route includes the Cascade Tunnel, as well as the 1893 site of the "last spike" near Scenic, Washington, which marked the completion for the Great Northern Railway transcontinental railway line built by James J. Hill.
Current operations are limited to 30 trains per day due to ventilation capacity with the Cascade Tunnel.
Description
Traveling east from the King Street Station in Seattle, the main line of the BNSF heads north through the Great Northern Tunnel under downtown Seattle. After exiting the tunnel, the main line continues north through the Interbay neighborhood and the Balmer Railyard. The line then crosses the Lake Washington Ship Canal on the Salmon Bay Bridge and passes through the Ballard neighborhood. The line passes through Golden Gardens Park in Ballard, which has been the site of several incidents involving pedestrians crossing the tracks. Several accidents proved fatal.
The main line then continues north along the shore of Puget Sound through the cities of Edmonds and Mukilteo, past Rucker Hill, near downtown Everett, to the old Everett Station, built by the Great Northern Railway in 1900. This section of the main line from Seattle to Everett is mostly double track with BNSF planning to double track the remaining single track in conjunction with changes planned by Sound Transit. From the old Everett Station the main line becomes single track making a nearly 180 degree turn through a partially covered cut through downtown Everett to the new Everett Station.
From the new station, the main line heads southeast along the Snohomish River through the cities of Snohomish and Monroe. From Monroe, the main line follows the Skykomish River through the towns of Index and Skykomish to the western portal of the current Cascade Tunnel. East of Everett, the route is single track except for passing sidings. To the east of Gold Bar, the route is mainly located on narrow ledges as it crosses back and forth across the Skykomish, South Fork of the Skykomish, and the Foss Rivers. A steep ascent/descent (2.2%) starts in the vicinity of eastern Skykomish and continues through the tunnel to Merritt. At Skykomish are facilities for turning equipment, mainly for snow fighting. Skykomish was also the end of electrification when the line was electrified from Wenatchee to Skykomish in 1928-1929. In 1928, a new electrical power plant was sited there as well but is now demolished.
After summiting the Cascade Range near Berne, the line starts a steep (2.2%) descent at a 2.2% grade, passing through the Gaynor Tunnel, and on to Merritt. Merritt is the site of a maintenance base with a turning facility for snow fighting equipment. To the east of Winton was the junction with the original right of way, and a 1928 line relocation project called the Chumstick Cutoff. This project included the construction of the Winton, Swede and Chumstick Tunnels. U.S. Route 2 is now located on the original right of way between this point and Leavenworth. Utilizing the Chumstick Cutoff, the line now goes down the Chumstick Valley, after going through the Winton and Swede Tunnels, crossing the Wenatchee River and then passing through the Chumstick Tunnel.
Up until the building of the Chumstick Cutoff and the current Cascade Tunnel, and the electrification of a majority of the subdivision in 1927–1929, Leavenworth was the division point. This was moved to its current location in Wenatchee in 1928–1929.
Starting near Leavenworth, the current line follows the Wenatchee River valley to the city of Wenatchee and the Columbia River. This area has a historic past, and is known for fruit production, particularly apples, pears and cherries. The railroad follows the river through countless fruit groves and passes the communities of Peshastin, Dryden, Cashmere, and Monitor, before arriving in the Wenatchee area. At Wenatchee, there is a small industrial base served by the railroad as well as a yard (Appleyard) used mainly during the fruit harvest season.
History
The section between Seattle and Everett was the site of several fatal collisions with pedestrians in the 1970s due to its location along the shore. The King and Snohomish county governments constructed several pedestrian overpasses to provide access to public beaches and shorelands over the tracks. The section has also been the site of landslides that caused prolonged closures for passenger and freight service. The Washington State Department of Transportation, Sound Transit, and BNSF funded $16.1 million in improvements, including retaining walls, slope stabilization, and landslide detection, beginning in 2014.

The Hyatt Regency Nice Palais de la Méditerranée is a nine-floor luxury casino hotel complex located on the Promenade des Anglais in Nice, France. It was built in 1929 by architects Charles and Marcel Dalmas, and partly rebuilt and modernized in 1990, a year after two of its facades were classified as historical monuments. It contains 187 rooms and twelve suites, and is owned by Constellation Hotels Holding.
History
Palais de la Méditerranée was built by architects Charles and Marcel Dalmas, in 1929 for the American millionaire Frank Jay Gould. According to Insight Guides, it "epitomised 1930s glamour with a casino, theatre, restaurant and cocktail bar". It was originally a major centre for the arts in Nice, and national and international art exhibitions were held there.
The original hotel closed in 1978. The main Art Deco facade on the Promenade des Anglais and the facade on Rue du Congrès were classified as historical monuments by order of 18 August 1989. As such, these were retained when much of the original hotel was demolished in 1990, to make way for a fully modernized hotel, with hotel rooms, apartments and a casino.
In July 2016, during Bastille Day celebrations on the Promenade, a terrorist drove a truck through crowds of people, running dozens of them down before police killed him near the Palais de la Méditerranée.
Facilities
The 9-floor hotel has 187 rooms, 12 suites, and a restaurant, bar and conference rooms on the third floor, which is the main floor of the building. The rooms on the 4th floor all have large balconies.

The Plungė massacre (in Yiddish Plungyan – פלונגיאן) was a World War II massacre committed on 13 or 15 July 1941 in the town of Plungė, in Lithuania. Following the anti-Soviet June Uprising in Lithuania and the German invasion as part of Operation Barbarossa, Plungė was captured by German forces on 25 June 1941. Lithuanian nationalists, led by Jonas Noreika, formed a town administration and police force. German forces killed 60 young Jewish men, accused by the Lithuanians of being a rear guard for the Red Army, shortly after the town's capture. On 13 or 15 July the Lithuanian nationalists transported the Jews to ditches near the village of Kausenai where they were shot. Of the 1,700-1,800 remaining Jews of Plungė, only a few survived.
Background
Jews first arrived in Plungė in 1348; by 1900, the population of more than 2,500 Jews comprised more than half of the people of the town.
Following the anti-Soviet June Uprising in Lithuania and the German invasion of the Soviet Union, Plungė was occupied by German forces on 25 June 1941.
Ghetto and repressions
Lithuanian nationalists, led by Jonas Noreika, formed a town administration and police force. While relatively not involved in subsequent events, German forces executed 60 young Jewish men who were accused of being a rear guard for the Red Army.
On 26 June 1941, the Lithuanians forced the Jews to the area around the local Beth midrash and synagogue which they declared a ghetto. Lithuanians took Jews out of the ghetto to perform hard manual labor, accompanied with humiliations and beatings, and some were murdered and did not return to the ghetto. The living conditions (filth, overcrowding, lack of food and water) in the ghetto led to high mortality and disease, particularly so among the elderly. Valuables were extorted from the Jews by the Lithuanian authorities.
Massacre
On 13 or 15 July the Lithuanian nationalists transported the Jews to ditches near the village of Kaušėnai in Nausodis eldership where they were shot. Of the 1,700–1,800 Jews of Plungė, only a few survived. Survivors included people deported to the Soviet Union prior to the German invasion, and six who were sheltered by Lithuanian friends.
Catholic priest Petras Lygnugaris baptized 74 Jewish maidens, in an effort to spare them, but the Lithuanian activists killed them there, notwithstanding. Plungė was perhaps the first town in German-occupied Europe where all of the Jewish inhabitants were murdered, including children, women and the elderly.
Aftermath
72 Plungė Jews joined the Red Army, of which 42 died in combat. Following the war there were 138 Jews in Plungė, most emigrated to Israel, South Africa, and the United States. By 1970, 45 remained. By 2002, Jacob Bunka was the last Jew in Plungė. Bunka died in 2014. Bunka created massive wooden sculptures commemorating the massacres in Plunge and other sites as well as the life of the Jewish community.
Remembrance sites for the events of 1941 exist in and around the town. A memorial wall bearing the names of most of the 1,800 killed Jews stands at the Kaušėnai Holocaust memorial.
Jonas Noreika was executed for treason in 1947.

Christina Beata Dagström (1691–1754), was a Swedish baroness and glass works owner. She owned and managed the glass works Henrikstorps glasbruk from 1713 onward. She personally managed Henrikstorps glasbruk during the majority of its existence, and it belonged to the most successful glass works in Sweden during her tenure in management.
Life
She was the daughter of Baron (died 1713) and Maria Ehrenberg (died 1713). She married the soldier and nobleman in 1715; the couple had no children.
After the death of her parents in 1713, Christina Beata Dagström inherited Gyllebo Manor alone, as well as Gärsnäs Castle and the Henrikstorps glass works jointly with her sisters. Henrisktorp glass works had bee established by her father in 1692 and was at the time one of the most notable in Sweden. While the sisters owned the glass works jointly, Christina Beata managed it alone; she invested great personal interest in it and developed it to one of the most successful glass works in Sweden during her lifetime, second only to Kungsholmen glass works. After her death however the business sharply declined and Henrikstorp glass works did not survive her death many years (it closed down in 1762, eight years after her death). She was a respected businesswoman in her time and her activity it mentioned by Carl von Linné in his description of contemporary Sweden.
In accordance with marital law at the time, Christina Beata Dagström became a minor under the guardianship of her husband when she married in 1715. In her case, however, this placed no restrictions on her activity, as she and her husband lived separate lives during most of their marriage. Her husband served in the army during the Great Northern War and she did not live with him until 1723, eight years after they married. When he finally returned from the war, he submerged himself in pietism and wrote religious texts preaching against the Swedish state Church as well as the king, supporting Charles Frederick, Duke of Holstein-Gottorp claims on the throne against Ulrika Eleonora, Queen of Sweden and Frederick I of Sweden whom he accused of having murdered Charles XII of Sweden. Because of this, he was imprisoned in 1728 for crimes against the church and the crown and was sentenced to life imprisonment in 1731. Christina Beata Dagström was initially accused as his accomplice during the three year's long process, but was declared innocent by any involvement in the crime of her husband, who accused her of having betrayed him.

Domingo Bordaberry Elizondo (1889–1952) was a Uruguayan lawyer and political figure.
Early career
Bordaberry was a lawyer by profession.
He became a farm manager and subsequently a landowner.
Senator
Bordaberry served as a Senator under the sponsorship of the Colorado Party (Uruguay); he was regarded as one of its more conservative members, and also acted as somewhat of a bridge to the Blanco Party, being strongly identified, with the Blanco Benito Nardone and others, with the defence of rural interests, and was particularly expert on livestock matters.
He was particularly linked with the 'Riverista' current of opinion within the Colorado Party (Uruguay), although his record for political cooperation reached much beyond that Party.
With Nardone, he was also heavily involved in the development of radio broadcasting for rural Uruguay, as co-owner of CX 4 Radio Rural.
Family background
Domingo Bordaberry was the son of Santiago Bordaberry Senior, a French national from the Northern Basque Country.
Domingo Bordaberry's son Juan María Bordaberry served with him in a prominent Ruralist organization and later became President of Uruguay in 1972.
A grandson, Pedro Bordaberry, was to serve as a minister in the government of Jorge Batlle.
Another grandson, Santiago Bordaberry, was to be prominent in Ruralist leadership.
Political heritage
Domingo Bordaberry may be said to have contributed to a distinct tendency within Uruguayan political culture in that he and his son Juan María Bordaberry, standing apart somewhat from the Montevideo-based political life, also succeeded by one means or another in garnering at least limited support from both of the formerly mutually antagonistic National (Blanco) and Colorado parties. (This antagonism may be understood in the context of the intermittent Civil War which occurred throughout much of the 19th century.) The wide personal political support commanded in recent years by his grandson Pedro Bordaberry, himself a former government minister, which reaches beyond the lately low poll percentages received by the formerly dominant Colorado Party (Uruguay), is thus arguably not beyond the context of an apparent capacity to unify support from diverse parts of the Uruguayan party spectrum inherited in some measure from Domingo Bordaberry. The relevance of this capacity for cooperation, particularly for the second round of the more recent Presidential elections, between the National and Colorado Parties, has been made more acute by the greatly increased electoral support in recent years for the Frente Amplio grouping.

Professional wrestling career
DDT Pro-Wrestling (2011–present)
Takeshita, with a sports background in track and field, began training for a career in professional wrestling in 2011 with the DDT Pro-Wrestling promotion. Takeshita had been a professional wrestling fan since childhood and as a 12-year old had attended a DDT show, where he was kissed by wrestler Danshoku Dino. On April 1, 2012, DDT announced that Takeshita would be debuting for the promotion on August 18 in Tokyo's Nippon Budokan. Prior to his debut match, Takeshita took part in exhibition matches. During one of these matches on August 4, Takeshita scored an upset win over Hiroshi Fukuda, winning the Ironman Heavymetalweight Championship in the process. The title had a 24/7 rule, where it could be won anytime and anywhere. As Takeshita was being congratulated by DDT general manager Amon Tsurumi for winning his first match before his debut, Fukuda hit him with a low blow and then pinned him to regain the title.
On August 18, 2012, Takeshita was defeated by El Generico in his official debut match. On November 25, Takeshita pinned Poison Sawada Julie in his retirement match, a six-man tag team match. At the end of 2013, Tokyo Sports named Takeshita Japanese professional wrestling's Rookie of the Year, with him becoming the first wrestler still in high school to win the award. He also finished second in Wrestling Observer Newsletters award category for Rookie of the Year, losing to Yohei Komatsu by four votes (906–902).
On January 26, 2014, Takeshita received his first-ever shot at one of the King of DDT (KO-D) titles, when he and Tetsuya Endo challenged for the KO-D Tag Team Championship in a three-way match, which was won by the Golden☆Lovers (Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi) and also included Isami Kodaka and Yuko Miyamoto. On May 6, Takeshita came together with Antonio Honda to form the "Happy Motel" stable. The two were eventually joined by Tetsuya Endo, with whom they went on to win the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championship by defeating Shuten-dōji (Kudo, Masa Takanashi and Yukio Sakaguchi) on July 13. They lost the title back to Shuten-dōji seven days later.
On August 17, Takeshita took part in a high-profile interpromotional match, when he was defeated by New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) representative Hiroshi Tanahashi at DDT's annual Ryōgoku Kokugikan event. On September 28, Takeshita and Endo defeated Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi to win the KO-D Tag Team Championship for the first time. Afterwards, Omega dubbed Takeshita the "Future of DDT". Takeshita and Endo went on to lose the title to Daisuke Sekimoto and Yuji Okabayashi on February 15, 2015. The following June, Takeshita made it to the finals of the 2015 King of DDT tournament, but was defeated there by Yukio Sakaguchi. On December 23, Takeshita and Endo defeated Shigehiro Irie and Yuji Okabayashi in the finals of a tournament to regain the vacant KO-D Tag Team Championship.
With Kudo sidelined with an injury and Kota Ibushi announcing his resignation from DDT, Takeshita was poised to take a larger role in the promotion. On January 3, 2016, he received his first shot at DDT's top title, the KO-D Openweight Championship, but was defeated by the defending champion, Isami Kodaka. On March 21, Takeshita and Endo lost the KO-D Tag Team Championship to Daisuke Sasaki and Shuji Ishikawa. On May 29, his 21st birthday, Takeshita defeated Daisuke Sasaki to win the KO-D Openweight Championship for the first time. With the win, Takeshita became the youngest KO-D Openweight Champion in history, beating the previous record held by Nosawa Rongai by three years and six months. On June 15, Takeshita made his debut for All Japan Pro Wrestling (AJPW), teaming with Tetsuya Endo in a tag team match, where they defeated Jun Akiyama and Yuma Aoyagi. On July 17, Takeshita successfully defended the KO-D Openweight Championship against his tag team partner Tetsuya Endo. After the match, Endo turned on Takeshita and joined Daisuke Sasaki's Damnation stable. After three successful title defenses, Takeshita lost the KO-D Openweight Championship to Shuji Ishikawa on August 28 at DDT's biggest event of the year, Ryōgoku Peter Pan 2016. On December 4, Takeshita and Mike Bailey defeated Daisuke Sasaki and Tetsuya Endo to win the KO-D Tag Team Championship. They lost the title to Masakatsu Funaki and Yukio Sakaguchi in their second defense on January 9, 2017.
On January 29, Takeshita defeated Kudo in the finals of a tournament to become the number one contender to the KO-D Openweight Championship. At Judgement 2017: DDT 20th Anniversary event, Takeshita defeated Harashima to win the KO-D Openweight Championship for the second time. The following month, Takeshita and Akito formed a new tag team named "All Out". On August 20 at the 2017 Ryōgoku Peter Pan show, Takeshita made his seventh successful defense of the KO-D Openweight Championship against 2017 King of DDT winner Tetsuya Endo. On October 22, Takeshita set a new record for most successful defenses of the KO-D Openweight Championship by making his ninth defense against Danshoku Dino. On November 2, Takeshita became a double champion, when he and his All Out stablemates Akito and Diego defeated Damnation (Daisuke Sasaki, Mad Paulie and Shuji Ishikawa) to win the vacant KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championship. On November 28, Takeshita and Yuki Ueno won the cross-promotional 2017 Differ Cup by defeating the Pro Wrestling Noah team of Hitoshi Kumano and Katsuhiko Nakajima in the finals. This marked the first Differ Cup held in 10 years. On December 10, All Out lost the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championship to Shuten-dōji.
On December 30, 2018, Takeshita won the D-Oh Grand Prix 2019 by defeating Go Shiozaki in the finals.
On February 17, 2019, Takeshita defeated Daisuke Sasaki to win his third KO-D Openweight Championship. On April 4, at DDT Is Coming to America, Takeshita lost the title to Daisuke Sasaki. Later on, Tetsuya Endo cashed in his "Right To Challenge Anytime, Anywhere" contract to win the title. On May 19, Takeshita defeated Soma Takao in the finals of the 2019 King of DDT tournament and thus became the number one contender to the KO-D Openweight Championship then held by Endo. On June 24, along with his All Out stablemates Shunma Katsumata and Yuki Iino, he won the KO-D 6-Man Tag Team Championship by defeating Chihiro Hashimoto, Dash Chisako and Meiko Satomura. On July 15, at Wrestle Peter Pan 2019, he won the KO-D Openweight Championship by defeating Tetsuya Endo.
On March 22, 2020, he lost the 6-man title to the team of Tetsuya Endo, T-Hawk and El Lindaman.
In early 2021, Takeshita announced that All Out would disband with their last match taking place on March 12 in a special All Out produced event. Their farewell match was a tag team match that Takeshita and Akito won against Katsumata and Iino. On March 28, in the pre-show of the Judgement 2021: DDT 24th Anniversary event, Takeshita and Katsumata were announced as entrants in the Ultimate Tag League 2021 where they would represent their new stable The37Kamiina. They won the league by defeating Daisuke Sasaki and Yuji Hino in a tie-breaker match on May 27.
All Elite Wrestling (2021–present)
During All Elite Wrestling's first-ever non-televised event called "The House Always Wins", Takeshita made his debut for the company in a 10-men tag team match. He teamed alongside members of The Elite, including AEW World Champion Kenny Omega, the former AEW World Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks along with Michael Nakazawa. They lost the match against a team that consisted out of Death Triangle (Pac, Penta El Zero Miedo and Rey Fenix) and the brothers Mike and Matt Sydal. Takeshita then made his YouTube debut for AEW on Dark: Elevation the following Monday competing against Danny Limelight. He won this match with a pinfall after using his finishing move.
Takeshita returned to AEW on the April 25, 2022 episode of AEW Dark: Elevation where he defeated Brandon Cutler. On the May 4 episode AEW Dynamite, he was challenged by Jay Lethal to wrestle him on the next episode of AEW Rampage. On the May 6, 2022 episode of Rampage, Lethal would defeat Takeshita following assistance from his manager Sonjay Dutt and Satnam Singh. On AEW Dynamite on May 18 he was defeated by AEW World Champion "Hangman" Adam Page in a non-title singles match, which was heavily praised by wrestling critics. Takeshita continued to gather wins on Elevation. On the July 6th episode of AEW Rampage, Takeshita lost to Eddie Kingston in a hard-hitting match. Takeshita's impressive matches up to this point earned him an AEW Interim World Championship Eliminator match against then interim champion Jon Moxley on the July 13 special episode of Dynamite titled Fyter Fest, which he lost. At Battle of the Belts III in August, Takeshita fought Claudio Castagnoli for his ROH World Championship, and was defeated. On November 19, it was confirmed that Takeshita had signed with the company, after his match against Eddie Kingston and Ortiz, while keeping his contract with DDT.
At Double or Nothing on May 28, Takeshita aligned with Don Callis after they attacked Kenny Omega in the final moments of his match against Blackpool Combat Club, turning heel in the process. At Blood and Guts, Takeshita, along with PAC and the Blackpool Combat Club were defeated by The Elite at the events' eponymous match. Takeshita would later go on to defeat Omega twice on pay per view in the span of a week - In a six man tag team match at All In and in a singles match at All Out.
Personal life
In February 2014, Takeshita was admitted into the Nippon Sport Science University. In June 2014, he signed with the Oscar Promotion talent agency. His hobbies include weightlifting and bodybuilding. Takeshita has stated that his goal was to take part in the 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics as a decathlete.

The Santa Barbara Symphony is a professional symphony orchestra and register 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in Santa Barbara, California.
The orchestra was founded in 1953. Music directors have included Erno Daniel (1960–1967), who also taught piano at the University of California, Santa Barbara, Ronald Ondrejka (1967–1979), who taught conducting at UCSB, Frank Collura (1979–1984), Varujan Kojian (1985–93), Gisele Ben-Dor (1994–2005), and Nir Kabaretti (2006–present).
In the 1990s the orchestra began releasing recordings, including CDs of works by Silvestre Revueltas, Astor Piazzolla, Luis Bacalov and Heitor Villa-Lobos.
Typically the orchestra performs a series of about seven concerts during a season, plus additional concerts, for example, a Pops music and stage performance on New Year's Eve.
In 2008, the Santa Barbara Symphony moved from its long-time venue at the Arlington Theatre to the newly renovated Granada Theatre.

Bulbul Chowdhury (1 January 1919 – 17 May 1954), real name Rashid Ahmed Chowdhury, was a Bengali dancer of British India, and later East Pakistan. He is primarily regarded as a pioneer of modern dance in Bangladesh, as a founding figure of dance among the conservative Muslim community.
Early life and education
Chowdhury was born in Chunati village Under Satkania Upazila in what is now Lohagara Upazila, Chittagong, on 1 January 1919. His father, Mohammed Azamullah, was an inspector (later promoted to Deputy Superintendent of Police) in the then Bengal Police Service during British Reign. His maternal grandfather, Munshi Fazar Ali Dewan, was a lawyer of Calcutta High Court who also practiced at Chittagong. Chowdhury was home tutored in Arabic and Persian. Later he would attend the Howrah Primary School, and the Manikganj High School from where he matriculated in 1934. He earned IA from Calcutta Presidency College in 1936. He had later earned Bachelor of Arts degree from the Scottish Church College in 1938, and Master of Arts in arts from the University of Calcutta in 1943.
During the course of his secondary and graduate education in Calcutta, he came in contact with reputed artists, like Santosh Chandra, the sarod player, the composer Timir Baran Bhattacharya, and dancers Uday Shankar and Sadhana Bose. These contacts spurred his desire to excel as a dancer. He got his break in 1936, when he was given the chance to perform with danseuse Sadhana Bose in
the Rabindra Nritya Natya Kach O Devajani. To avoid the conservative gaze of contemporary conservative Muslims, he took the pseudonym Bulbul Chowdhury. In 1937, he also helped in founding the Oriental Fine Arts Association.
Career
Following the outbreak of the World War II, in January 1940, Chowdhury came to Dhaka with his troupe and performed a number of dance dramas. Back in Calcutta, he established Calcutta Culture Centre on 31 March 1941. During the World War II, he moved to Chittagong and worked at different places from 1943 to 1947. During 1950–1952, he performed in dance concerts in the unified Pakistan. In 1953, with his troupe, he visited Europe in countries including Britain, Ireland, Holland, Belgium and France.
Chowdhury was declared as the National Dancer of Pakistan in 1949. By situating dance as part of the Mughal tradition, he challenged conservative Muslim attitudes towards dance, and helped in making dance gain social respectability and popularity.
Chowdhury wrote a novel Prachi which was published in 1942. He also wrote a number of short stories.
Personal life
Chowdhury was married to Afroza Bulbul Chowdhury. She was a dancer and actress. She died in 1990.
Death and legacy
On 17 May 1954, at the age of 35, Chowdhury died from cancer in Calcutta. After his death, Afroza, Chowdhury's wife, founded the Bulbul Institute of Culture in Karachi and the Bulbul Academy for Fine Arts (BAFA) in Dhaka on 17 May 1955. BAFA is also known as Bulbul Lalitakala Academy. It is an institution of fine arts that was established in popularizing dance among conservative Bengali Muslims. Afroza wrote Sundor Ei Prithibi Amar, a memoir on Chowdhury.
Chowdhury was honored posthumously with Pride of Performance award by the Pakistan government in 1959 and Independence Day Award by the Bangladesh government in 1984.
