is a Japanese television series, spin-off from the Garo metaseries. The series focuses on Jinga, now a reincarnated Makai Knight while facing his past darkness he assumed during the events of Garo: Gold Storm Sho and the film Garo: Kami no Kiba. Masahiro Inoue reprised his role on the lead character.
Plot
After the former Makai Knight turned Horror Jinga was defeated by Ryuga Dougai as Garo during the events of Garo: Kami no Kiba, he returned to the Makai Realm and challenged Messiah. He lost that battle and his soul drifted through the darkness for a time; he somehow found himself reborn into the light again. Unaware of his dark past life, he's reborn into the Mikage family and became a Makai Knight once again. His new life hasn't been easy as his father, Mizuto Mikage, turned to the dark side and became a Horror, killing his wife before being slayed by him. While still recovering from the incident, Jinga becomes partners with Makai Priest Fusa while managing the training of his little brother Toma, later gaining by accident a power that allows him to purify Horrors without killing their hosts, something never seen before in the long history of the Makai Knights, which draws the attention of the Watchdogs. But no one suspects the true nature of Jinga's abilities as his past-life is beginning to re-surface from within him.

Rundle Heights is a residential neighbourhood overlooking the North Saskatchewan River valley in the City of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, named for Methodist missionary Robert Terrill Rundle. While the neighbourhood didn't develop until the 1960s and 1970s, the area is closely associated with the Town of Beverly, a working class community that amalgamated with Edmonton in 1961. A number of the Beverly coal mines were located in the area.
Demographics
In the City of Edmonton's 2012 municipal census, Rundle Heights had a population of living in dwellings, a -1.4% change from its 2009 population of . With a land area of , it had a population density of people/km2 in 2012.
Residential development
Shortly after arriving in Canada in 1927, a Dutch immigrant named Jacob Prins bought a farm east of Beverly in the area that is now Rundle Heights, and which included one of the larger coal mines in the Edmonton Area. The farm would grow to .
In the 1950s, the Prins family tried strip mining coal near the river on the eastern side of the property. The venture proved unsuccessful. In 1956, the City of Edmonton bought the site of the strip mine and used it for the Beverly Dump, a place to dispose of the city's refuse and garbage.
The Prins' farm ceased production in 1966, and most of the land was subdivided for the Rundle Heights neighbourhood.
With the neighbourhood encroaching on the Beverly Dump, and the dump reaching the end of its useful life, the city reclaimed the dump site for parkland. Today, Rundle Park and the Rundle Golf Course occupy the area once known as the Beverly Dump.
The stretch of 32nd street that runs in the northern part of the neighborhood contains numerous public housing developments. The 3-2 Bloods are a set of the Bloods gang that operate in the area. However, this area is a small portion of the neighborhood at large.
The neighbourhood is bounded on the north by 118 Avenue, to the west by 34 Street (north of 111 Avenue) and 36 Street (south of 111 Avenue) and by the river valley to the south and east. Surrounding neighbourhoods are Abbottsfield to the north, Beacon Heights to the north west, and Beverly Heights to the west.
There are two schools in Rundle Heights. The Rundle Heights Elementary School is operated by the Edmonton Public School System and St. Jerome Catholic Elementary School is operated by the Edmonton Catholic School System.
Mining
The Town of Beverly was a coal mining town with over twenty mines operating in the area during the town's history. The following major mines were active in the area of Rundle Heights.
Humberstone Coal Mine
Old Bush Mine
Bush's Mine

Kathryn Inez Bowers (May 2, 1943 – May 13, 2015) was a Tennessee Democratic politician and member of the Tennessee General Assembly who left office after being implicated in the Tennessee Waltz corruption scandal.
She served as a member of the Tennessee House of Representatives in the 99th through 104th General Assemblies; during the 103rd General Assembly, she was the House Majority Whip. In 2005, during the 104th General Assembly, she became a member of the Tennessee Senate, serving through 2006.
Biography
Kathryn Bowers graduated from Hamilton High School in Memphis in 1960. She obtained an associate's degree from Griggs Business College in 1962 and attended the Memphis State University School of Journalism from 1970 to 1972. She was President of Women Action for New Direction (WAND) from 1999 until 2003. She worked as a contractor business consultant and was a one-time state director for Women in Government. From May 2003 until June 2005, Bowers served as Chairman of the Shelby County Democratic Executive Committee.
Tennessee House of Representatives
Bowers became a member of the Tennessee House of Representatives in 1995 and served in the House in the 99th through 104th General Assemblies. During the 103rd General Assembly, she was the House Majority Whip. In 2005 she moved to the Tennessee Senate to fill an unexpired term representing the 33rd district, which was composed of part of Shelby County.
She was sworn in as a Senator on May 3, 2005, replacing Senator Sidney Chism, who had been elected to the post on an interim basis by the Shelby County Commission as a replacement for Roscoe Dixon, who resigned on January 13 of that year. She served on the Senate Government Operations Committee, on the Senate Commerce, Labor & Agriculture Committee, on the Senate Environment and Conservation Committee, and on the Joint Tenncare Oversight Committee.
Operation Tennessee Waltz
In 2005, she was indicted on charges of corruption as a result of Operation Tennessee Waltz. She rejected a plea bargain she was offered in 2006. In the August 3, 2006, primary, she had won the Democratic nomination for another term in the Tennessee Senate, but shortly thereafter she announced the abandonment of her re-election campaign for "health reasons." According to a September 1, 2006, story in The Commercial Appeal, Bowers was arrested for suspicion of DUI in Memphis the previous day.
On July 16, 2007, she pleaded guilty to one count of bribery in exchange for the prosecution's agreement to drop five charges of extortion, each of which could have carried a twenty-year sentence. In her plea bargain, she admitted she split a $11,500 bribe with an accomplice who was her contact with FBI agents impersonating crooked businessmen. Her plea carried the risk of a sentence of as much as ten years and a $250,000 fine, although federal sentencing guidelines suggest leniency for first-time offenders.
As of mid-July 2007, Operation Tennessee Waltz had produced indictments against eleven individuals and, including Bowers, convictions for ten of them. The remaining individual, a former member of the Memphis school board, had not yet gone to trial. Prosecutors said that Bowers was one of the first corrupt officials identified, and that she helped them make contact with other legislators.
Personal
Bowers was divorced with two daughters. She lived in Memphis, Tennessee. Bowers died on May 14, 2015, at the age of 72.

The Juba Nile Bridge is composed of two adjacent 252 meter spans over the White Nile in Juba, South Sudan, on the Juba-Nimule Road, and until 2022 provided the only access over the River Nile to South Sudan. It was built in 1972 during the regime of General Gaafar Nimeiry, from two World War II era bridges. It was re-opened in January 2012 after major repair works following an accident in 2010 which left one lane of the bridge unusable for heavy vehicles. A new bridge, the Freedom Bridge, was opened in 2022 a small distance upstream.
History
The original Nile bridge crossing at Juba was built in 1974 by the Dutch construction company De Groot International under a United Nations programme. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees paid about one million dollar. The total cost of the bridge was 2.5 million. The Dutch government put up the remaining 1.5 million. On 15 March 1974 it was opened by general Gaafar Nimeiry. Up until that time an irregular ferry service was the only way to cross the Nile river for hundreds of miles.
After the Sudan civil war the United Nations Commissioner For Refugees asked for help from the Dutch government. The "Rijkswaterstaat Directie Bruggen" was asked to design a bridge and they came up with a practical design using World War II-era Bailey bridge material.
The design for the bridge with six 43 meter spans also included walkways to the left and right, five pillars driven into the granite substrate, the landends and the road leading up to the bridge. More than 600 tons of steel, parts of a floating crane, a drilling rig and a bulldozer and a complete field kitchen and medical unit were transported to the site. The materials were shipped around the Cape and driven into Sudan from neighbouring Kenya. From the first order until the transport leaving the port of Rotterdam took 7 weeks, the transport took 10 weeks, and the total construction time on site was 14 weeks.
One reason this tight schedule was a success was the setting up of a sober "campsite" where the 18 Dutch construction workers lived, working closely with locals to get the job done.
Following the collapse of one of the bridges due to hostilities, two replacement 252-metre Mabey Compact 200 bridges were installed in 2006. In 2010, one of these two Juba Nile Bridges was damaged, leaving it completely unusable for heavy vehicles. The bridges provided the only access over the Nile into much of South Sudan, since most goods and foodstuffs imported from Kenya and Uganda passed over the Juba-Nimule Road.
As of result of South Sudan's becoming an independent nation in 2011, newly elected president Salva Kiir made the repair of the Juba Nile Bridges one of his government's priorities during the administration's first 100 days. Funding for the repair was provided by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) under the Accelerated Infrastructure Program, a cooperative agreement with the United Nations Office for Project Services (UNOPS). A new bridge, the Freedom Bridge has been constructed by a Japanese company and after several delays and was opened in 2022.
A local construction firm started the repair works in December 2010, fully reopening the bridge in mid-January 2012, ahead of the scheduled February completion date.
In October 2021 a new repair effort was made to ease travel to Juba.

The Andevo, or slaves, were one of the three principal historical castes among the Merina people of Madagascar, alongside the social strata called the Andriana (nobles) and Hova (free commoners). The Andevo, along with the other social strata, have also historically existed in other large Malagasy ethnic groups such as the Betsileo people.
In and after the 16th century, slaves were brought into Madagascar's various kingdoms to work in plantations. The Malagasy, the Swahili, and the European merchants and nobles expanded their opportunities to produce more and trade. These operations and plantations were worked by the forced labor of imported slaves. The largest influx of slaves was brought in by the 'Umani Arabs and the French. The Mozambique were one of the major victims of this demand, slave capture and export that attempted to satisfy this demand. These slaves were predominantly from East Africa and Mozambique. These slaves were called Andevo. The slavery was abolished by the French administration in 1896, which adversely impacted the fortunes of Merina and non-Merina operated slave-run plantations.
The Andevo strata in the Merina society have been domestic and plantation workers. Their traditional inherited occupation has been as workers and artisans, and they constituted a large percentage of a society. The Andevo caste were also called the Mainty and they were denied the right to own land. A Hova person could be reduced to a slave for crimes or a debt in default, and in this state he would not be an Andevo, but be referred to as Zaza-hova.
The Andevo, and other social strata were endogamous in the Merina and Betsileo societies. According to William Ellis memoir in 1838, a slave in the Malagasy society was prohibited from marrying a noble or a hova. The Andevo were considered olana maloto, or "impure people", in contrast to Hova and Andriana who were olona madio or "pure people". This presumed "impurity" and "purity" has been a reason for the historic social taboo against inter-marriages between Andevo and non-Andevo strata of the Malagasy societies.

Visitation is a tempera on panel painting usually attributed to Perugino, executed c. 1472–1473, now in the Galleria dell'Accademia in Florence. An early work by the artist from around the same time as Nativity of the Virgin, whilst he was still heavily influenced by Andrea del Verrocchio, it probably originated as part of the predella for a lost altarpiece. It shows the Visitation, with the Virgin Mary's mother Saint Anne to the left. In the left background is Francis of Assisi receiving the stigmata and in the right background is Florence's patron saint John the Baptist - this may indicate that the lost altarpiece was intended for a Franciscan monastery in Florence such as Santa Croce.
There is debate over the painting's attribution to Perugino - Mackowsky, Raimond Van Marle and Ugo Procacci instead attributed it to Jacopo del Sellaio or his school. The attribution to Perugino was first mooted in 1959 at a conference by Federico Zeri. Anna Padoa Rizzo agrees, but Jean K. Cadogan instead attributes it to Domenico Ghirlandaio.

Route 215, also known as Petit Forte Road, is a east–west highway on the Burin Peninsula of the island of Newfoundland in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. It connects the towns of Boat Harbour, Brookside, and Petit Forte with Route 210 (Heritage Run/Burin Peninsula Highway).
Route description
Route 215 begins just west of Boat Harbour at an intersection with Route 210 and heads east to immediately pass through the community. It now becomes very curvy and winding as it travels along the coastline through some hills to pass through Brookside before turning inland through remote terrain for several kilometres. The highway now dips to the south to follow the coast again as it enters Petite Forte and passes by a dock for a ferry leading to South East Bight. Route 215 passes through neighbourhoods before coming to an end shortly thereafter at the centre of town. As with most highways in Newfoundland and Labrador, it is entirely a two-lane road for its entire length.

During the 1957–58 season Associazione Calcio Milan competed in Serie A, Coppa Italia and European Cup.
Summary
For this season Giuseppe Viani was confirmed as the club's coach. Milan was the protagonist of the 1957 transfer market, signing Ernesto Grillo and Giancarlo Danova. Giovanni Trapattoni, purchased from Cusano Milanino, and Mario Trebbi, who came from the youth team, were added to the first team for the Coppa Italia matches, and would become future pillars of the club.
In the league, reigning champions Milan had a disappointing season, collecting only one win in their first 14 matches, and they finished in ninth place, equal on points with Inter and Udinese, just four points above relegated Atalanta.
In the 1958 Coppa Italia (an event reinstituted by the FIGC after 15 years) Milan qualified for the quarter-finals after winning the group stage ahead of Inter, with whom they played the first ever derby in this competition, won 3-2 by the Devils. The quarter-finals of this competition were played on the 6th of September, and therefore form part of the 1958-1959 season.
The main seasonal satisfactions came from the European Cup, where Milan reached the final. During the campaign, they come across Rapid Wien, which they overcame following a play-off won 4-2, made necessary as the total result at the end of the two legs was 6-6 with Milan winning by 4-1 in San Siro and being defeated 5-2 in Austria. Then it was the turn of Rangers, Borussia Dortmund and Manchester United who were eliminated respectively in the round of 16, quarter-finals and semi-finals with overall scores of 6-1, 5-2 and 5-2. Worth mentioning is the win against the Red Devils in the second leg of the semifinals, with the score of 4-0. In the final, the team faced the reigning champions Real Madrid. Like Stade Reims and Fiorentina, finalists against Los Blancos in the two previous editions, Milan is also forced to surrender to the Spanish team, even if they only did so in extra time after taking the lead twice during the first 90 minutes, thanks to goals by Schiaffino and Grillo. The result after 120 minutes was 3-2 with Madrid player Gento scoring the decisive goal in the extra time.

The 2021 Hell in a Cell was the 13th annual Hell in a Cell professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming event produced by WWE. It was held for wrestlers from the promotion's Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. The event took place on June 20, 2021, from the WWE ThunderDome, hosted at the Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida. It was WWE's final PPV to be broadcast from the ThunderDome, and subsequently the final PPV in WWE's residency at the Yuengling Center, due to the company's resumption of live touring with fans in mid-July. It was the first Hell in a Cell event to be held in June, as the event was generally held in October, and only the second time the event was not held in October, the first of which was the September 2018 edition. It was also the first Hell in a Cell to livestream on Peacock.
Seven matches were contested at the event, including one on the Kickoff pre-show. Two Hell in a Cell matches were contested at the event. In the main event, which was Raw's Hell in a Cell match, Bobby Lashley defeated Drew McIntyre in a Last Chance match to retain the WWE Championship. In the other Hell in a Cell match, which was the opening bout, Bianca Belair defeated Bayley to retain the SmackDown Women's Championship. In other prominent matches, Charlotte Flair defeated Raw Women's Champion Rhea Ripley by disqualification, thus Ripley retained the title, and Seth Rollins defeated Cesaro.
Production
Background
Hell in a Cell was an annual professional wrestling event produced by WWE since 2009, generally held in October. The concept of the show came from WWE's established Hell in a Cell match, in which competitors fought inside a 20-foot-high roofed cell structure surrounding the ring and ringside area. The main event match of the card was contested under the Hell in a Cell stipulation. During WrestleMania Backlash on May 16, 2021, the 2021 event was moved from the October slot to June, which was only the second time for the event to not be held in October; the first time was the September 2018 event. The 2021 event was the 13th Hell in a Cell and was held on June 20, 2021—the previously scheduled date for Money in the Bank, which was moved to July 18—and featured wrestlers from the Raw and SmackDown brand divisions. The event aired on pay-per-view (PPV) worldwide and was available to livestream on the WWE Network in international markets, and was the first Hell in a Cell to livestream on Peacock after the American version of the WWE Network merged under Peacock in March.
Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic that began affecting the industry in mid-March 2020, WWE had to present the majority of its programming from a behind closed doors set. Initially, Raw and SmackDown's television shows and PPVs were done at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida. A limited number of Performance Center trainees and friends and family members of the wrestlers were later utilized to serve as the live audience. In late August, these programs were moved to a bio-secure bubble called the WWE ThunderDome. The select live audience was no longer utilized as the bubble allowed fans to attend the events virtually for free and be seen on the nearly 1,000 LED boards within the arena. Additionally, the ThunderDome utilized various special effects to further enhance wrestlers' entrances, and arena audio was mixed with that of the chants from the virtual fans. After being hosted at Orlando's Amway Center and Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida, the ThunderDome was relocated to the Yuengling Center in Tampa, Florida in April 2021.
On May 21, WWE announced that they would be leaving the ThunderDome and returning to live touring in mid-July, thus Hell in a Cell was the final pay-per-view to be presented from the ThunderDome, and subsequently, the final pay-per-view in WWE's residency at the Yuengling Center. Additionally, the 2021 event made Hell in a Cell the only PPV to be held twice in the ThunderDome.
Storylines
The event comprised seven matches, including one on the Kickoff pre-show, that resulted from scripted storylines, where wrestlers portrayed heroes, villains, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches. Results were predetermined by WWE's writers on the Raw and SmackDown brands, while storylines were produced on WWE's weekly television shows, Monday Night Raw and Friday Night SmackDown.
At WrestleMania Backlash, Bobby Lashley defeated Drew McIntyre and Braun Strowman to retain the WWE Championship. The following night on Raw, MVP and Lashley issued an open challenge to anyone on the Raw roster except McIntyre and Strowman. Later in the main event, it was revealed that the open challenge was just to face Lashley rather than a title match. The New Day's Kofi Kingston answered the challenge and defeated Lashley thanks to McIntyre's distraction. The following week, WWE official Adam Pearce scheduled a match between McIntyre and Kingston where the winner would face Lashley for the WWE Championship at Hell in a Cell, only for it to end in a no-contest after interference from Lashley and MVP. A rematch was scheduled for the following week where if Lashley and/or MVP were at ringside or interfered in the match, Lashley would be suspended for 90 days without pay; McIntyre defeated Kingston to earn another title match against Lashley at Hell in a Cell. During the match contract signing on the June 7 episode, the match was made a Hell in a Cell match with a further stipulation that this would be McIntyre's last chance at the WWE Championship as long as Lashley was the champion.
At WrestleMania Backlash, Rhea Ripley defeated Charlotte Flair and Asuka to retain the Raw Women's Championship. The following night on Raw, Flair confronted WWE officials Adam Pearce and Sonya Deville, demanding another opportunity at Ripley for the championship as Flair did not take the pin in the triple threat match. Pearce and Deville stated that if Flair won her match against Asuka, they would consider it. However, Flair lost the match thanks to a distraction from Ripley. The following week, however, Flair defeated Asuka. A match between Ripley and Flair for the title was then scheduled for Hell in a Cell.
At WrestleMania Backlash, Bianca Belair defeated Bayley to retain the SmackDown Women's Championship. On the following SmackDown, WWE official Sonya Deville hosted a parade of champions to celebrate SmackDown's champions. Bayley interrupted, taking issue that she was not acknowledged as the longest-reigning SmackDown Women's Champion and claimed that Belair had cheated at Backlash by using her hair as a weapon. On the June 4 episode, Belair challenged Bayley to a rematch at Hell in a Cell with the title on the line, and Bayley accepted. Two weeks later, Belair changed the stipulation of their match to a Hell in a Cell match.
During Night 1 of WrestleMania 37, Cesaro defeated Seth Rollins. On the following SmackDown, Rollins interfered and attacked Cesaro during the latter's match, with Rollins proclaiming that their rivalry was not over. Cesaro defeated Rollins in a rematch on the May 7 episode, which also earned himself a Universal Championship match against Roman Reigns at WrestleMania Backlash, which Cesaro lost. Following the title match, Rollins came out and brutally attacked Cesaro, smashing his arm in a steel chair. On the following SmackDown, Cesaro attempted to challenge Reigns to a rematch for the title only for Rollins to attack Cesaro once again, this time resulting in Cesaro being taken out on a stretcher. On the June 18 episode, following more weeks of feuding, another match between Cesaro and Rollins was scheduled for Hell in a Cell.
During Night 2 of WrestleMania 37, Kevin Owens defeated Sami Zayn, who was accompanied by YouTube personality Logan Paul. On the following SmackDown, Zayn claimed that he lost to Owens because he was distracted wondering if Paul was okay. Zayn then called out Owens for a rematch. Owens defeated Zayn by count-out after Zayn retreated from the ring, after which, Owens brought Zayn back to the ring and performed a Stunner on him. Zayn would continue to be a hindrance to Owens over the next several weeks, and another match between the two was scheduled for Hell in a Cell.
On the May 17 episode of Raw, Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler lost their WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match after Alexa Bliss set off flames that blinded Reginald. After Jax and Baszler again lost the following week due to the flames, it was announced that Baszler would take on Reginald in an intergender match on the May 31 episode, which Reginald won when flames shot from the ring post. On the June 7 episode, Baszler was a guest on "Alexa's Playground". She stomped on Bliss' doll, Lilly, but when flames shot up from the ring posts, Baszler retreated and locked herself in a room, only to see Lilly's reflection in a mirror before the lights turned off as the show ended. The following week, Jax said Bliss would face Baszler at Hell in a Cell.
Canceled and rescheduled match
On the June 4 episode of SmackDown, The Usos (Jey Uso and Jimmy Uso) challenged Rey Mysterio and Dominik Mysterio for the SmackDown Tag Team Championship, however, the match ended in a controversial finish in which the referee did not notice that Jimmy had his shoulder up during the pin. The Usos were granted a rematch later that same night, but during the rematch, The Usos' cousin and Universal Champion, Roman Reigns, interfered by attacking the Mysterios, not wanting The Usos to embarrass themselves again. Following the match, Reigns brutally attacked Rey's son Dominik, which Jimmy felt Reigns took too far, also furthering tensions between Reigns and Jimmy. The following week, Rey confronted Reigns and challenged him to a Hell in a Cell match, wanting to take revenge on Reigns for what he did to Dominik, and a brawl ensued. The next day on Talking Smack, Reigns' special counsel Paul Heyman accepted Rey's challenge on Reigns' behalf with the Universal Championship on the line. On June 17, however, Rey posted to Twitter, stating that he did not want to wait until Sunday, and it was announced that the match would instead take place on the June 18 episode of SmackDown, marking the first Hell in a Cell match to take place on an episode of SmackDown; Reigns defeated Rey in 16 minutes to retain the title.
Event
Pre-show
During the Hell in a Cell Kickoff pre-show, one-half of the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions, Natalya (accompanied by her tag team partner, Tamina), faced Mandy Rose (accompanied by Dana Brooke). In the end, Natalya forced Rose to submit to the Sharpshooter to win the match.
Preliminary matches
The actual pay-per-view opened with Bianca Belair defending the SmackDown Women's Championship against Bayley in a Hell in a Cell match. During the early half of the match, as Belair attacked Bayley with her ponytail, Bayley blocked the attacks with a chair. Later, Bayley tied Belair's ponytail on the bottom ring rope and as Bayley attempted to attack Belair, Bayley tripped and fell onto the steel steps. Bayley would also bite the arm of Belair. In the end, Belair performed the Kiss of Death on Bayley on a ladder to retain the title.
Next, Seth Rollins faced Cesaro. During Cesaro's entrance, Rollins attacked Cesaro from behind and a brawl ensued in the ring where the match officially began. In the end, as Cesaro attempted a Cesaro Swing on Rollins, Rollins performed a roll-up on Cesaro to win the match.
After that, Alexa Bliss faced Shayna Baszler (accompanied by Nia Jax and Reginald). In the closing moments, Bliss hypnotized Jax into slapping Reginald, which distracted Baszler. Bliss took advantage and performed Twisted Bliss on Baszler to win the match.
In the next match, Sami Zayn faced Kevin Owens. Throughout the match, Zayn began to target Owens' left arm. In the end, Zayn performed a running knee to the back of Owens' head and a Helluva Kick on Owens to win the match.
In the penultimate match, Rhea Ripley defended the Raw Women's Championship against Charlotte Flair. Before the match began, while the referee was raising the title to hype the match, Flair snatched the title from the referee, taunted Ripley by throwing the title at her and attacked Ripley. The climax brought the match outside the ring where Flair tried to attack Ripley by the announce table, however, Ripley grabbed the top cover of the announce table, pulled it off, and slammed it into Flair's head. Ripley was disqualified, thus Flair won the match but did not win the title as titles do not change hands on a disqualification unless stipulated.
Main event
In the main event, Bobby Lashley (accompanied by MVP) defended the WWE Championship against Drew McIntyre in a Last Chance Hell in a Cell match. Midway through the match, the referee was knocked out. McIntyre called for the referee guarding the cell door on the outside of the cage to take over and officiate the match. MVP used the opportunity to get inside the cage when the referee opened the cell door. After more fighting, McIntyre set up for the Claymore Kick, but MVP held his leg to prevent him from attacking Lashley. As McIntyre tried freeing himself from MVP's grip, Lashley rolled up McIntyre with a roll-up to win and retain the title. As per the stipulation, McIntyre can no longer challenge for the WWE Championship as long as Lashley is the champion.
Reception
Hell in a Cell 2021 received mixed reviews from fans and critics, with criticism for the Alexa Bliss vs. Shayna Bazler match in particular. Christopher Jeter of Fansided wrote, "This attempt to make the audience believe that Bliss is so frightening that even Shayna Baszler is flustered by her was bad enough when fans had to sit through that Alexa's Playground segment a couple of weeks ago on Raw. Now, they had to endure Bliss literally laughing off Baszler's offense — including the arm stomp that used to write wrestlers off of TV in NXT — and, sigh, Alexa hypnotizing Baszler and Nia Jax. If nothing else, Bliss pinning Baszler clean should signal the end of this nonsense, or at least Baszler's involvement in it".
Anthony Mango of Bleacher Report wrote, "One of the most laughably bad things on WWE television recently was the setup for the feud between Alexa Bliss and Shayna Baszler. Considering how awful most things have been lately, it says a lot that this stuff with Lilly the puppet was a standout bad storyline. At least this would be WWE's last chance to play around with the ThunderDome special effects and go out with a bang, right? Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. Nothing that happened here couldn't have happened in any other environment. The only interesting moment was Bliss hypnotizing Nia Jax and forcing her to slap Reginald, but that wasn't good enough to save this segment. This could have had some interesting special effects, gone in an interesting direction or even seen the return of Bray Wyatt. However, if you were to describe this to someone, you'd be left wondering what to say other than "Bliss pinned Baszler."".
The DQ ending to the Raw Women's Championship match was also not liked. Mango praised the match, but said that 'the ending wasn't quite as fantastic'. He added, "Disqualifications shouldn't happen on pay-per-views. There are far too many on television as it is, and the special events should be an exception to that booking where there is more finality to everything".
Dave Meltzer of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter rated the main event 4 stars, the highest-rated match on the show. Charlotte Flair vs. Rhea Ripley was rated 3.25 stars, Bayley vs. Belair was rated 3.5 stars (same as for Cesaro vs. Rollins), Zayn vs. Owens was rated 3.75 stars, Natalya vs. Mandy Rose on the kickoff show was rated 3 stars and Bliss vs. Baszler received a poor rating of 1 star, the lowest on the show. Additionally, Elton Jones of Heavy Sports of named the Lashley vs. McIntyre Hell in a Cell match the match of the night with a rating of 4 stars out of 5 and gave the whole show a good rating of 7.5 out of 10.
Aftermath
Raw
On the following episode of Raw, Bobby Lashley gloated about not having to defend the WWE Championship against Drew McIntyre ever again. The New Day's Kofi Kingston, who had defeated Lashley in a non-title match on the May 17 episode of Raw and also stated that he never received a rematch after losing the WWE Championship in October 2019 at SmackDown's 20th Anniversary, came out and challenged Lashley for the title at Money in the Bank. Lashley accepted, but said he wanted to face Kingston's New Day partner, Xavier Woods, later that night. This led to Lashley competing in a Hell in a Cell match for the second straight night, where he defeated Woods. Afterwards, Lashley continued his attack on Woods while Kingston was forced to watch from outside the cell.
Also on the following episode of Raw, Charlotte Flair confronted Raw Women's Champion Rhea Ripley and claimed she was "proud" of Ripley and told her that she had never seen Ripley as a "strategic champion". WWE official Sonya Deville then scheduled a rematch between the two at Money in the Bank.
Qualifying matches for the men's and women's Money in the Bank ladder matches also began on the following episode of Raw. Alexa Bliss, Shayna Baszler, and Nia Jax competed in a tag team match where the two members of the winning team would be entered into the women's ladder match. Nikki Cross, who was incorporating a new superhero gimmick and a nickname of Nikki A.S.H. (short for Almost a Super Hero), teamed with Bliss and they defeated Baszler and Jax to qualify. For the men's match, Ricochet, Riddle, and John Morrison qualified while Drew McIntyre lost his qualifying match to Riddle. However, he won a last chance triple threat match the following week to earn Raw's final spot in the men's ladder match.
SmackDown
SmackDown Women's Champion Bianca Belair and Cesaro continued to feud with Bayley and Seth Rollins, respectively. On the following episode of SmackDown, Bayley and Rollins defeated Belair and Cesaro in a mixed tag team match in which Bayley pinned Belair. This led to a rematch between Belair and Bayley being scheduled for Money in the Bank as an "I Quit" match. However, on July 9, WWE announced that Bayley suffered a legitimate injury while training that would sideline her for up to nine months; this was followed by an announcement that a replacement would be named for Bayley and the title match would be a regular singles match held on the July 16 episode. Carmella was revealed as Bayley's replacement.
Seth Rollins and Cesaro were also scheduled for a rematch on the July 9 episode, which was also a qualifier match for the men's Money in the Bank ladder match. Rollins again defeated Cesaro, thus qualified for the match.
Another match between Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn was scheduled for the July 2 episode of SmackDown, this time as a Last Man Standing match, which Owens won. This was also a qualifying match for the men's Money in the Bank ladder match.

Connally v. General Construction Co., 269 U.S. 385 (1926), was a landmark United States Supreme Court case in which the Court expanded and established key constructs of the Fourteenth Amendment's due process doctrine along with establishing the vagueness doctrine. It defined necessary requirements that are fundamental to any law, which, when lacking, are to be deemed void. The case was a dispute regarding Oklahoma state statutes, which, in essence vaguely required businesses to pay workers not less than the "current rate of per diem wages in the locality where the work is performed". The ruling determined that the standards set in place were unconstitutionally vague.
Provisions rejected by the Supreme Court
The Supreme Court nullified all enforcement of provisions §§ 7255 and 7257, of the Compiled Oklahoma Statutes, 1921. The provisions established basic requirements for workers and the rights they were to be prescribed, while working for the state or a company executing a contract for a state, or a subcontractor thereof.
8-hour day for employees
Necessary payments (min. wage)
The statutes together defined each day that the employer violated the provisions, as an additional count of the offense. The offense itself established fines of $50–500, and imprisonment of 3–6 months. This form of cumulative punishment made the crime extremely punitive.
Opinion of the Court
The Supreme Court determined that the sections provided for violation of the 5th amendment rights of the employers, by not specifically defining what was and was not punishable; this ruling is particularly famous for furthering the scope of the vagueness doctrine.

Aviapartner, whose origins date back to 1949 under the name of Herfurth Air Services to become 'Belgavia' in the late 1960s, is a Belgian company that provides ground handling services at 37 airports in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and The Netherlands. Among the airports served are Amsterdam, Brussels, Milan, Düsseldorf, Rome, Nice, Toulouse and Málaga .
History
In 1949, Belgavia was founded in Antwerp, Belgium. In the coming years, they expanded their services to the airports of Ostend (1957), Liège (1965) and Brussels (1970). It took until the 90's for the company to go international. Bases in France and later in Germany were opened. In 1999, the name was changed to Aviapartner. The group expanded by taking over Servisair in Rotterdam (2002), Aero Groundservices in Amsterdam (2007) and SAT in Bordeaux and La Rochelle (2010).
In 2011, Aviapartner lost its handling licence in Brussels for seven years to Swissport. This could lead to the loss of thousands of jobs and led to a major 24-hour strike in June 2011 that affected many flights and passengers.
Aviapartner went to court as they believed juridical mistakes had been made. The judge ruled that a new investigation was to be conducted and that, in the meantime, Aviapartner could continue operations at the airport. Before a new investigation was concluded, Swissport took over Flightcare, the other ground handling company at the airport. Note that only two handling licences are issued at the airport.
In 2012, Aviapartner announced a merge with the French Worldwide Flight Services (WFS), making them the biggest ground handler in Europe. This merge was not successful.
Range of ground handling services
Passenger handling:
Check-in, ticketing, boarding assistance, lost and found baggage services, assistance to disabled passengers, passenger ground transportation.
Ramp handling:
Loading and unloading of baggage and cargo to/from aircraft on the ramp, ground power provision for aircraft, cleaning, water and sanitary services, freight and baggage transfer to terminal, crew transfer from aircraft to terminal/hotel, pushback and towing, with headset, aircraft de-icing.
Traffic operations:
Preparation of flight documentation, ground to air communication, calculation of weight and balance, set-up of loadsheet, crew briefing, flight supervision.
Cargo handling:
Warehousing, palletizing, import and export procedures, customs clearance, trucking services.
Courier handling:
Transfer of courier and express shipments to/from other warehouses and aircraft, handling of express flights operated from the Brussels Airport Courier center.

Joachim Andreas von Schlick, Count of Passaun and Weißkirchen (in Czech Jáchym Ondřej Šlik z Holíče, hrabě z Passaunu; 9 September 1569, in Ostrov – 21 June 1621, in Prague) was a Bohemian nobleman of the Schlick family in the Kingdom of Bohemia and the Holy Roman Empire. He was one of the leaders of the Protestant estates general in Bohemia and was executed in Prague in 1621 during the Old Town Square executions. He now rests in the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Most.
Youth
He studied at the University of Jena, where he worked for several years as its rector, and worked for nine years at the Dresden court as an educator of Saxon princes (e.g., John George, who during the rebellion, served as Elector of Saxony).
Uprising
He was involved since 1608 in the negotiations between the rebellious Bohemian estates, and it was he who convinced Silesia and Lausitz to join the Bohemian revolt. He was one of the leading representatives of the Lutheran wing of the rebel states. During the Battle of White Mountain he did not command a regiment of Moravian German mercenaries, as is sometimes erroneously stated. In fact, the Moravian Regiment was commanded by his relative, Colonel Count Heinrich von Schlick. The latter later had a successful career as imperial Field Marshal and president of the Vienna court war council. Heinrich von Schlick died in 1650.
During the reign of Matthias of Habsburg in 1611, Joachim von Schlick became a royal marshal. Then from the "Winter King" Frederick V, Elector Palatine, to whose election he had contributed, he received the Office of High Court judge. He participated in the Second Prague Defenestration and was probably one of the people who threw the Habsburg officials from the window of Prague Castle.
Prior to execution
Before his execution, he managed to write a letter to the Saxon agent in Prague, Bartholomew Brunner, his old friend, who had promised to deliver it to the Provincial Commissioner, Prince Charles of Lichtenstein. At that time, Schlick served as reeve or bailiff, as appointed by the fugitive King Frederick of the Palatinate.
The letter of 17 January 1621 is intended as a supplication to Lichtenstein, who was a relative of Schlick's wife, asking him to intercede with the Emperor in hopes that a public apology would save him. Moreover, he offered to help to justify the expulsion of Frederick. The letter was, in effect, a confession and a renunciation of his prior beliefs and actions. After a short time in exile, Schlick returned to Bohemia and was caught hiding with his nephew Christopher. Schlick's wife tried unsuccessfully to save him, and Schlick was sentenced to death, along with the loss of his honor and property.
Execution
He was executed 21 June 1621 at the Old Town Square in Prague, along with 26 other nobles, knights and civic leaders who had supported the Protestant regime. His right hand was cut off, then he was beheaded. The original sentence, however, was quartering alive. This execution became known as the execution of 27 Bohemian Lords. He was executed first. Executioner Jan Mydlář hung Schlick's head with his hand laid on his mouth at the Old Town Bridge Tower. His confiscated estates and property were sold soon afterwards.
Body
In May 1622, after frequent pleas from Countess Schlick, Charles of Lichtenstein allowed Joachim Schlick's head and hand to be recovered and buried with his body in the crypt under the pulpit at St. Salvator in Prague Old Town. His tomb was desecrated and emptied during the Saxon invasion of Bohemia during the Thirty Years' War. His skull was recovered and kept by his family. It was reburied in the early 19th century.

Tom Atlee (born 1947) is an American social, peace and environmental activist and author.
Personal life
Born in an intellectual, activist family of Quakers, Atlee experienced social change from an early on. In 1968, he dropped out of Antioch College to organize draft resistance to the Vietnam War. In 1976, daughter Jennifer was born. Participating in the Great Peace March of 1986 – a "watershed experience" to Atlee, he "spent the next 15 years exploring group and organizational phenomena". Atlee lives in an intentional community in Eugene, Oregon.
Professional life
From 1989–1994 Atlee was editor of Thinkpeace, a national journal of peacemaking strategy and philosophy. In 1991 he went to Belize and to Czechoslovakia as a consultant on ecological social change and community-building. From 1991–1992 Atlee served on the boards of the Ecology Center (Berkeley). In 1996, he founded the Co-Intelligence Institute, a non-profit organization facilitating and researching self-organization, collective intelligence, participatory modes of governance and collaborative democracy. An article in Utne Reader identifies him as a radical centrist thinker.
Co-Intelligence
Co-intelligence according to the FAQ on Atlee's institute website is "shared, integrated form of intelligence that we find in and around us when we're most vibrantly alive. It is also found in cultures that sustain themselves harmoniously with nature and neighbor. ... [it] shows up whenever we pool our personal intelligences to produce results that are more insightful and powerful than the sum of our individual perspectives."
Wise Democracy Pattern Language
Atlee developed the Wise Democracy Pattern language with the support of Martin Rausch. The first edition was created in 2016. According to their website the Wise Democracy Pattern Language is a pattern language that, "highlights dynamic factors and design principles which can make an activity, organization or community more wisely self-governing." The "prime directive" or fundamental principle of Wise Democracy is "“evoke and engage the wisdom and resourcefulness of the whole on behalf of the whole.”

John Hill Morgan (June 30, 1870 – July 16, 1945) was an American lawyer, politician, and art expert.
Life
Morgan was born on June 30, 1870, in Brooklyn, New York, the son of James Lancaster Morgan and Alice M. Hill.
Morgan attended Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute and St. Paul's School in Concord, New Hampshire. He graduated from Yale College with a B.A. in 1893, and from Yale Law School with an LL.B. cum laude in 1896. While in Yale College, he was a member of Psi Upsilon and Wolf's Head and served as business manager of The Yale Record. In Yale Law School, he was a member of Phi Delta Phi and Corby Court, and was an editor of the Yale Law Journal.
Morgan was admitted to the New York bar in 1896. He practiced law in Manhattan for the next four years, at which point he moved his law practice to Brooklyn. In 1904, he joined the law firm Mckeen, Brewster & Morgan, and later formed the firm Rumsey & Morgan. He retired from his law practice in 1936, after which he moved to Farmington, Connecticut. He was also a trustee of the Brooklyn Savings Bank and the Bank of America.
In 1899, Morgan was elected to the New York State Assembly as a Republican, representing the Kings County 1st District. He served in the Assembly in 1900, 1901, 1902, and 1903. In the 1918 United States House of Representatives election, he was the Republican candidate for New York's 7th congressional district. He lost to James P. Maher.
Morgan was an authority on American colonial art and wrote a number of books and articles on the subject. In 1924, he was elected to the American Antiquarian Society. He was also a member of the Walpole Society and was an honorary curator of the Yale School of Fine Arts, where he held the rank of assistant professor. His collection of early American paintings and portraits were displayed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Brooklyn Museum, and in 1937 he presented a portrait of John C. Calhoun to Calhoun College. He received an honorary M.A. from Yale in 1929, followed by an honorary LL.D. from Washington and Lee University in 1932. He was on the governing committee of the Brooklyn Museum and was a trustee of the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences and the New York Historical Society.
In 1903, Morgan married Leila Augusta Myers. They had one daughter, Leila. He was a member of the Episcopal Church. He was a member of the Society of Colonial Wars, the University Club, the New York State Bar Association, and the Brooklyn Bar Association. He was a trustee of the Brooklyn Public Library and the Children's Aid Society.
Morgan died at home on July 16, 1945. He was buried in Saint Paul's Church Cemetery in Mount Vernon.

Peckett and Sons was a locomotive manufacturer at the Atlas Locomotive Works on Deep Pit Road between Fishponds and St. George, Bristol, England.
Fox, Walker and Company
The company began trading in 1864 at the Atlas Engine Works, St. George, Bristol, as Fox, Walker and Company, building four and six-coupled saddle tank engines for industrial use. They also built stationary engines and pioneered steam tramcars, the first being tested in Bristol in 1877.
Much of their output was exported, mostly , with some , and . In 1878 they produced six gauge trench engines for the Royal Engineers at Chatham using Henry Handyside's steep gradient apparatus. They also produced nine s for the Somerset and Dorset Railway.
Peckett and Sons
They were taken over by Thomas Peckett in 1880, becoming Peckett and Sons, Atlas Engine Works, Bristol. The company acquired limited liability some years later. By 1900 the two companies had built over 400 locomotives.
The company continued producing a variety of small industrial and shunting engines at their factory located between Fishponds and Kingswood in Bristol. They became specialists in the field, with very precise specifications and standardisation of parts. The largest engine was an built in 1931 for the Christmas Island Phosphate Company. The works were served by a branch line starting just south west of Kingswood junction on the Midland line and ran for about in a generally eastward direction. It also served some collieries in the Speedwell area. The only evidence remaining of this line is a bridge abutment on Whitefield Road.
During the two World Wars, the works were especially busy, but by 1950 trade had largely dried up. Although in 1956 an attempt had been made to enter the diesel-mechanical market, the last steam engine was produced in 1958 and the company was taken over by Reed Crane & Hoist Co Ltd on 23 October 1961, which itself later went into liquidation.
Production and preservation
Despite hard work and poor maintenance, the engines were long-lasting. Many Peckett locomotives survive working on today's heritage railways around the world.
The last Peckett steam locomotive built, 2165 of 1958, is preserved at Sandstone Estates, South Africa
The oldest surviving Fox Walker locomotive is "Karlskoga", an of 1873 and the first locomotive of the Nora Bergslags Railway in Sweden. It was steamed at Nora, Sweden in 1982.

Philip Delano (c. 1603 – c. 1681-82) was a passenger on the Fortune and an early citizen of Plymouth Colony. He is best known as the progenitor of the Delano family in the Americas.
Life
Early years
Philippe de Lannoy, later Philip Delano, was baptized in the Vrouwekerk, the Protestant Walloon church of Leiden, Holland on December 7, 1603. His parents, Jan (Jean) de Lannoy of Tourcoing and Marie Mahieu of Lille (Rijsel) in Flanders, at that time in the Spanish Netherlands, were betrothed on January 13, 1596 in the same church. The Walloons were the French-speaking natives of the ancient region of Wallonia, now in today's Belgium, to the east of Flanders. Both parents made their way with their families to Leiden via Canterbury, England, having fled religious persecution from Flanders around 1579. Jean's father was Gysbert (Guilbert) de Lannoy, the earliest known de Lannoy ancestor. 8 places where the de Lannoys and Mahieus lived are known, more than for any Mayflower passenger.
Philip's father died within a year or two of his son's birth, and Philip's mother married Robert Mannoo, a woolcomber from the city of Namur, on March 6, 1605. Philip grew up in Leiden, but further details are unknown.
In New England
In November 1621, Philip Delano arrived in Plymouth Colony as a single man on the ship Fortune. Based on his baptism date, Philip's age was about 18. Philip may have been the servant of another passenger. Philip may have first lived with his uncle, Mayflower passenger Francis Cooke and Cooke's son. Philip's maternal aunt, Hester (Mahieu), was married to Cooke. In 1633, Philip is listed as a freeman.
In the Division of Land of 1623, Philip is listed as Philipe de la Noye, sharing a parcel of land with Moses Simonson. Near the end of 1626, Isaac Allerton had reached an agreement with Plymouth's financial backers in London, the Adventurers, that Plymouth would buy the colony's debts from the London backers. The colonists formed their own group in Plymouth, the Undertakers, which assumed the debt. The agreement was signed in Plymouth by 27 men, including Delano, who signed as “Phillip Delanoy”. In 1627, after the institution of private property, Delano made the first recorded land sale in Plymouth to Stephen Deane.
In 1637, Delano volunteered for the Pequot War. On October 2, he was given forty acres of land in Duxbury, adjoining the lands of John Alden and Edward Bumpus. Delano was appointed surveyor, but was deposed in 1641.
Death and burial
Philip Delano died in Duxbury, Plymouth Colony between August 22, 1681 and March 4, 1681/2. Though his burial place is unknown, it is likely that Philip was buried in the Myles Standish Burial Ground in Duxbury, where many of Philip's descendants are buried.
At his death, Philip may have accrued significant wealth. His sons Thomas and Samuel agreed to distribute Philip's estate; the other children who shared the estate were John, Jane, Rebecca and Philip.
Family
Surname
Over the years, names of various spellings have been attributed to Philip Delano. The surname de Lannoy originates from the town of Lannoy, a few miles from Tourcoing.
In the 1623 Division of Land, Philip is listed as Philipe de la Noye. In both the 1626 Purchasers list and the 1633-34 tax list, he is listed as Phillip Delanoy. Philip's name was changed to Delano in New England. His father's name at marriage and death is recorded in Dutch church records as Jan Lano.
There is no evidence that Philip was a descendant of the noble House of Lannoy.
Children
Philip Delano was married twice and may have had nine or ten children.<ref name="Sketch">Robert Charles Anderson, Pilgrim Village Family Sketch: Philip Delano (a collaboration between American Ancestors and New England Historic Genealogical Society) [http://www.americanancestors.org/pilgrim-families-phillip-delano/]</ref> He married:
1. Hester Dewsbery (or Dewsbury) on December 19, 1634 in Plymouth. She died between 1648 and 1653. Her burial place is unknown. Children attributed to Philip and Hester Delano:
Mary (b. ca. 1635). She married Jonathan Dunham on November 29, 1655. Died childless.
Philip (ca. 1637 – 1708). He married Elizabeth Sampson and had five children.
Thomas (ca. 1639 – April 13, 1723). He married a daughter of Mayflower passenger John Alden, likely Rebecca. With her, Thomas had nine children. The couple were buried in Myles Standish Burying Ground, Duxbury, Mass.
Esther (b. ca. 1641). She was not named in her father’s estate and, therefore, may have predeceased him.
John (b. ca. 1644 – September 5, 1721). He married Mary Weston and had six children.
Jonathan (b. ca. 1648 – December 28, 1720). He married Mercy Warren and had thirteen children. Mercy was a granddaughter of Mayflower passenger Richard Warren. It is through Jonathan's son Thomas that Franklin Delano Roosevelt descends. Jonathan Delano and his wife were both buried in Acushnet Cemetery in Acushnet, Massachusetts.
2. Mary, widow of James Glass. Her father was William Pontus. Mary's burial place is unknown. Children attributed to Philip and Mary Delano:
Jane (b. ca. 1655). She was living at the settlement of her father’s estate in 1682. There is no further information.
Rebecca (b. ca. 1657 – April 7, 1709). She married John Churchill on December 28, 1686 and had five children. She was buried at Burial Hill, Plymouth, Mass.
Samuel (b. ca. 1659 – bef. August 9, 1728). He married Elizabeth Standish and had nine children. Elizabeth was a granddaughter of Mayflower'' passenger Myles Standish. Samuel and his wife Elizabeth were both buried in Myles Standish Burying Ground, Duxbury, Mass.
(a daughter) was born ca. 1661, based on the wording of various bequests in Philip’s will. There is no further information.

A dihedral angle is the angle between two intersecting planes or half-planes. In chemistry, it is the clockwise angle between half-planes through two sets of three atoms, having two atoms in common. In solid geometry, it is defined as the union of a line and two half-planes that have this line as a common edge. In higher dimensions, a dihedral angle represents the angle between two hyperplanes.
The planes of a flying machine are said to be at positive dihedral angle when both starboard and port main planes (commonly called "wings") are upwardly inclined to the lateral axis; when downwardly inclined they are said to be at a negative dihedral angle.
Mathematical background
When the two intersecting planes are described in terms of Cartesian coordinates by the two equations
the dihedral angle, between them is given by:
and satisfies
Alternatively, if and are normal vector to the planes, one has
where is the dot product of the vectors and is the product of their lengths.
The absolute value is required in above formulas, as the planes are not changed when changing all coefficient signs in one equation, or replacing one normal vector by its opposite.
However the absolute values can be and should be avoided when considering the dihedral angle of two half planes whose boundaries are the same line. In this case, the half planes can be described by a point of their intersection, and three vectors , and such that , and belong respectively to the intersection line, the first half plane, and the second half plane. The dihedral angle of these two half planes is defined by
,
and satisfies In this case, switching the two half-planes gives the same result, and so does replacing with In chemistry (see below), we define a dihedral angle such that replacing with changes the sign of the angle, which can be between and .
In polymer physics
In some scientific areas such as polymer physics, one may consider a chain of points and links between consecutive points. If the points are sequentially numbered and located at positions , , , etc. then bond vectors are defined by =−, =−, and =−, more generally. This is the case for kinematic chains or amino acids in a protein structure. In these cases, one is often interested in the half-planes defined by three consecutive points, and the dihedral angle between two consecutive such half-planes. If , and are three consecutive bond vectors, the intersection of the half-planes is oriented, which allows defining a dihedral angle that belongs to the interval . This dihedral angle is defined by
or, using the function atan2,
This dihedral angle does not depend on the orientation of the chain (order in which the point are considered) — reversing this ordering consists of replacing each vector by its opposite vector, and exchanging the indices 1 and 3. Both operations do not change the cosine, but change the sign of the sine. Thus, together, they do not change the angle.
A simpler formula for the same dihedral angle is the following (the proof is given below)
or equivalently,
This can be deduced from previous formulas by using the vector quadruple product formula, and the fact that a scalar triple product is zero if it contains twice the same vector:
Given the definition of the cross product, this means that is the angle in the clockwise direction of the fourth atom compared to the first atom, while looking down the axis from the second atom to the third. Special cases (one may say the usual cases) are , and , which are called the trans, gauche+, and gauche− conformations.
In stereochemistry
In stereochemistry, a torsion angle is defined as a particular example of a dihedral angle, describing the geometric relation of two parts of a molecule joined by a chemical bond. Every set of three non-colinear atoms of a molecule defines a half-plane. As explained above, when two such half-planes intersect (i.e., a set of four consecutively-bonded atoms), the angle between them is a dihedral angle. Dihedral angles are used to specify the molecular conformation. Stereochemical arrangements corresponding to angles between 0° and ±90° are called syn (s), those corresponding to angles between ±90° and 180° anti (a). Similarly, arrangements corresponding to angles between 30° and 150° or between −30° and −150° are called clinal (c) and those between 0° and ±30° or ±150° and 180° are called periplanar (p).
The two types of terms can be combined so as to define four ranges of angle; 0° to ±30° synperiplanar (sp); 30° to 90° and −30° to −90° synclinal (sc); 90° to 150° and −90° to −150° anticlinal (ac); ±150° to 180° antiperiplanar (ap). The synperiplanar conformation is also known as the syn- or cis-conformation; antiperiplanar as anti or trans; and synclinal as gauche or skew.
For example, with n-butane two planes can be specified in terms of the two central carbon atoms and either of the methyl carbon atoms. The syn-conformation shown above, with a dihedral angle of 60° is less stable than the anti-conformation with a dihedral angle of 180°.
For macromolecular usage the symbols T, C, G+, G−, A+ and A− are recommended (ap, sp, +sc, −sc, +ac and −ac respectively).
Proteins
A Ramachandran plot (also known as a Ramachandran diagram or a [φ,ψ] plot), originally developed in 1963 by G. N. Ramachandran, C. Ramakrishnan, and V. Sasisekharan, is a way to visualize energetically allowed regions for backbone dihedral angles ψ against φ of amino acid residues in protein structure.
In a protein chain three dihedral angles are defined:
ω (omega) is the angle in the chain Cα − C' − N − Cα,
φ (phi) is the angle in the chain C' − N − Cα − C'
ψ (psi) is the angle in the chain N − Cα − C' − N (called φ′ by Ramachandran)
The figure at right illustrates the location of each of these angles (but it does not show correctly the way they are defined).
The planarity of the peptide bond usually restricts ω to be 180° (the typical trans case) or 0° (the rare cis case). The distance between the Cα atoms in the trans and cis isomers is approximately 3.8 and 2.9 Å, respectively. The vast majority of the peptide bonds in proteins are trans, though the peptide bond to the nitrogen of proline has an increased prevalence of cis compared to other amino-acid pairs.
The side chain dihedral angles are designated with χn (chi-n). They tend to cluster near 180°, 60°, and −60°, which are called the trans, gauche−, and gauche+ conformations. The stability of certain sidechain dihedral angles is affected by the values φ and ψ. For instance, there are direct steric interactions between the Cγ of the side chain in the gauche+ rotamer and the backbone nitrogen of the next residue when ψ is near -60°. This is evident from statistical distributions in backbone-dependent rotamer libraries.
Converting from dihedral angles to Cartesian coordinates in chains
It is common to represent polymers backbones, notably proteins, in internal coordinates; that is, a list of consecutive dihedral angles and bond lengths. However, some types of computational chemistry instead use cartesian coordinates. In computational structure optimization, some programs need to flip back and forth between these representations during their iterations. This task can dominate the calculation time. For processes with many iterations or with long chains, it can also introduce cumulative numerical inaccuracy. While all conversion algorithms produce mathematically identical results, they differ in speed and numerical accuracy.
Geometry
Every polyhedron has a dihedral angle at every edge describing the relationship of the two faces that share that edge. This dihedral angle, also called the face angle, is measured as the internal angle with respect to the polyhedron. An angle of 0° means the face normal vectors are antiparallel and the faces overlap each other, which implies that it is part of a degenerate polyhedron. An angle of 180° means the faces are parallel, as in a tiling. An angle greater than 180° exists on concave portions of a polyhedron.
Every dihedral angle in an edge-transitive polyhedron has the same value. This includes the 5 Platonic solids, the 13 Catalan solids, the 4 Kepler–Poinsot polyhedra, the two quasiregular solids, and two quasiregular dual solids.
Law of cosines for dihedral angle
Given 3 faces of a polyhedron which meet at a common vertex P and have edges AP, BP and CP, the cosine of the dihedral angle between the faces containing APC and BPC is:
This can be deduced from Spherical law of cosines

Kidangannoor or Kidangannur is a town in the extreme west end of Pathanamthitta district in the state of Kerala, India. It is on the route between Aranmula (famous for its boat races) and Pandalam. It is well connected to various places such as Thiruvalla(20 km),Chengannur (9.5 km), Pandalam (9.5 km), Aranmula (4 km), Kozhencherry (8 km), Pathanamthitta (18 km) by different roads. It is one of the fastest-growing villages in Kerala. It is about 2 km from the border of Pathanamthitta & Alappuzha districts( Elimukku junction). It is about 4.5 km east of Mulakkuzha from MC road.
Demographics
India census, Kidangannur had a population of 16,364 with 7,665 males and 8,699 females. There have been many NRI (Non-resident Indian and person of Indian origin) resulting in not only improved quality of life and rise of money in many households but has left some elderly people alone and resulted in a decline in workers.
Kidangannur population in 2019/2020 is between 13,836 and 17,117 and total households residing are 3,965.
Notable people
Kidangannoor is located at Thiruvabharana Patha of Lord Ayyappan. It is 4 km away from Aranmula. Pallimukathu Devi Temple is at Kidangannoor. It is the birthplace of the father of modern Malayalam, Rev. George Mathan. Mathan wrote the first grammar book in Malayalam called "Malayanmayude Vyakaranam" and other books like "Satyavadakhedam", "Marumakkathaya Sampradayam" and many others. He did most of his writing in his ancestral house in Kidangannoor, although he spent most of his life in Mallapally and Kottayam. He worked tirelessly with Rev.Hermann Gundert and other priests to save Malayalam from the onslaught of Tamil, which was the official language in Kerala at that time.
Trivia
The village's other attractions are proximity to Aranmula(4 km) and Sabarimala(85 km) (both holy places of pilgrimage and worship for Hindus), the Syrian Christian Orthodox Pilgrimage Center and Church, nearby Mezhuveli, a local market, schools, etc. Syrian St.Mathias CSI Church Kidangannur is situated nearby and is the only church that has relatives of Rev. George Mathan and the puliyelil family as its members. There is a Mar Thoma Church near the junction christened as St. Thom Mar Thoma Church, Kidangannur, which falls under the jurisdiction of Chengannur- Mavelikara Diocese of Mar Thoma Church. A dedication center called Navdarshan is also run by the diocese. St. George Salem Jacobite Syrian Church is also located in Mezhuveli.
The majority of the residents are Christians and Hindus. Therefore, religious festivals of Christians and Hindus are observed every year. Worth mentioning are the festivals in the Syrian Christian Churches (Jacobites and Orthodox) at Mezhuveli with its kathina fireworks and rally which is observed every year with great fanfare. The Hindu temple festivals are also conducted every year with great pomp and fanfare.
The village used to grow many crops, but since the late 1900s there have been mostly rubber farms with only small gardens and areas growing other crops. The village was also affected by 2018 Kerala Floods.

white, with two distinct orange bands. The spire is obtuse and contains four whorls. The aperture is rather narrow and widening anteriorly. The outer lip is slightly thickened, and finely denticulate in the type Some specimens are, however, smooth in this respect. The columella is convexly curved, with four strong oblique plaits, and a tendency towards a fifth. The two orange colour bands divide the shell into three roughly equal divisions. These bands are always distinct without any shading or accessory bands or lines. There is also a patch of the same colour surrounding the anterior plaits.
Distribution
This marine species is endemic to Australia and occurs off Tasmania.

The Kemess Mine was an open-pit copper and gold mine, located just northeast of the foot of Thutade Lake, at the head of the Finlay River, in the Omineca Mountains of the Northern Interior of British Columbia, Canada. It was operated by Royal Oak Mines from 1998 to 1999, when it was bought by Northgate Minerals. Northgate operated the mine until its closure in 2011; that year Northgate was taken over by AuRico Gold. In 2014 AuRico Gold partitioned off its portion of Kemess Mine ownership creating a new company called AuRico Metals.
AuRico Metals was acquired by Centerra Gold in January 2018.
The deposit mined was a copper-gold porphyry. Over its life the mine produced approximately 3 million ounces of gold and 800 million pounds of copper.
The mine is serviced by Kemess Creek Airport and the Omineca Resource Road from Prince George. Air distance from Smithers is 280 km, approximately due north; road distance from Prince George is approximately 550 km.
Near the mine is the Kemess Underground Project, also owned by Centerra Gold. This separate deposit is currently in the development stage, and has not been approved for production.

The 1959 Major League Baseball season saw the Pittsburgh Pirates finish in fourth place in the National League at 78–76, nine games behind the NL and World Series Champion Los Angeles Dodgers. The Pirates set the record for most extra innings victories in a season, winning 19 of their 21 extra inning games.
Offseason
January 30, 1959: Whammy Douglas, Jim Pendleton, Frank Thomas, and John Powers were traded by the Pirates to the Cincinnati Reds for Smoky Burgess, Harvey Haddix and Don Hoak.
Prior to 1959 season: Dick Rand was traded by the Pirates to the St. Louis Cardinals for Tom Burgess.
Regular season
May 26, 1959: Harvey Haddix took a perfect game into the 13th inning of a game against the Milwaukee Braves. Haddix retired 36 consecutive batters in 12 innings, but lost the game 1–0. Braves pitcher Lew Burdette also pitched a shutout for 13 full innings, giving up 12 hits. NOTE: On September 4, 1991, MLB redefined no-hitters to no longer include games in which the first hit was surrendered in extra innings. Until then, Haddix had been credited with a perfect game.

The Battle of the Theben Pass, also known as the Battle of Moson, was fought in the Theben pass near Wieselburg, where the March meets the Danube, in 1060. It was a victory for the nationalist part in Hungary over that of their own pro-German king.
In 1058, Solomon, son of Andrew I of Hungary was betrothed to Judith, daughter of the Emperor Henry III. In Hungary, however, a party opposed to such close ties with Germany arose, led by Béla, Andrew's brother. A German embassy composed of Eppo, Bishop of Naumburg, and William, Margrave of Meissen, was sent to Hungary to negotiate with the national party, but this merely provoked a backlash.
In 1060, Andrew and his queen, Anastasia, attempted to flee Hungary for the March of Austria, but were trapped by Béla in the pass of Theben. Andrew was immediately taken captive, but Anastasia with her son and the royal treasure escaped to the Melk Abbey. Andrew was killed in a subsequent charge of the Hungarian cavalry, but the Margrave William and a certain Bavarian named Poto fought from sunset until sunrise so that "the deeds of the very bravest of men of former times seem small in comparison." They held out until Béla promised to spare their lives; surrender was then made. William, Poto, and the rest of the embassy were all taken captive by the Béla and expelled. Poto would henceforth be known to the world as Poto the Brave.

Cold Comes the Night is a 2013 American crime thriller film directed by Tze Chun, who co-wrote the script with Oz Perkins and Nick Simon. It was released on September 20, 2013, in the UK and on January 10, 2014 in the United States. The film stars Alice Eve, Bryan Cranston and Logan Marshall-Green. The film was produced by Mynette Louie and Trevor Sagan.
Plot
Chloe, a single mother living with her daughter Sophia, operates a motel. Topo is a blind man traveling cross country in a Jeep with his associate Quincy. They stop by Chloe's motel, when Quincy hires prostitute Gwen, and convinces Topo to stay the night. When Gwen is entertaining Quincy, an argument has Quincy fatally shooting Gwen, waking Chloe up. Chloe investigating finds Gwen and Quincy dead.
The police arriving, Chloe has a conversation with her police friend Billy who was Gwen's pimp. He comforts her while Chloe tells him she will not allow his girls to use the rooms in her motel anymore, as a social worker was around earlier threatening to take Sophia away. The following day Topo takes Chloe and Sophia hostage looking for the Jeep. As Sophia watches TV Chloe agrees to retrieve the Jeep from the police. Topo forces Chloe and Sophia to stake out Billy's residence. Billy's wife Amber answers the door and Chloe and Billy fight. Billy refuses to give Chloe the Jeep. Topo forces Chloe to break into the police junkyard and retrieve a package hidden behind the radio. After evading the Patrolman, Chloe reaches the car but cannot find the package.
Back at the motel, Chloe learns more about Topo and figures out that he is a courier who is supposed to deliver bundles of money. She proposes to Topo that they split the money if she helps him faster and he reluctantly agrees due to his new impairment. After Chloe falls asleep with Sophia, Topo looks around and finds Chloe's hidden stash of emergency money.
The next morning, Topo and Chloe stake out, learning that Quincy was Topo's nephew and Chloe's husband died in a hit and run. After finding Billy, Chloe follows him only to be found out and cornered in an alley. After Billy has Chloe pinned on the roof of the car, Topo sneaks up behind him and interrogates him and heads to Billy's house thinking the money is stashed there. After Chloe finds the money under the bed she is confronted by Amber, whom Topo shoots. They leave after tying Billy to the radiator. They go back to the motel where Topo leaves with all of the money with another associate, Donnie.
Chloe calls the police and tells them that she was a hostage. They tell her that Billy was not found at his house and decide to leave a squad-car there for her safety. Topo and Donnie meet Québécois mafia, Jacques and his associates in a car park. The mafia force Topo into the car and proceed to count the money to find that Topo is missing fifty grand, which Chloe has as her cut. When Jacques threatens to kill Topo, Topo kills them all. Back at the motel, Chloe packs her and Sophia's things, she sends the police away only to be approached by Topo to give her back her cut, when Billy shoots Topo and Donnie, and has cornered Chloe, who then throws him through a window, unintentionally fatally slicing his neck.
Chloe sets the scene to look like a deal gone bad, and takes Sophia into a taxi to parts unknown.

Papestra biren, the glaucous shears, is a moth of the family Noctuidae. The species was first described by Johann August Ephraim Goeze in 1781. It is found in most of Europe, but not in the southern parts of the Iberian Peninsula, Italy and Greece. Outside of Europe it is found in Kashmir and through the Palearctic to Siberia, Central Asia, Amur, Kamchatka, the Russian Far East and Japan. It was introduced in Newfoundland in 1935 and has since then extended its range ever more southward within North America partly overlapping with Papestra quadrata (Smith, 1891). It rises to 2200 m above sea level in the Alps.
Technical description and variation
The wingspan is 30–38 mm. Forewing purplish grey suffused with blackish; stigmata pale grey, with whitish rims edged with black; submarginal line whitish, preceded by black dentate marks: hindwing dark brownish fuscous; the paler- or bluish-grey tint is most developed in the type form; lappo Dup. is a more ashy grey form with pale stigmata, from Lapland, Finland, and northern Ireland; aperta Geyer represents an exceptionally dark form; while taunensis Fuchs, from the Taunus Mts., is uniform dark ruddy grey, with only the external margins of the claviform and reniform pale.
Biology
Adults are on wing from May to July in one generation.
Larva brownish red, with dark dorsal reticulation: dorsal line distinctly paler; subdorsal lines formed of dark lunules, which on the 11th segment meet in a dark patch, beyond which the 12th is yellowish; lateral lines yellowish white; spiracles white, black-edged.
The larvae mainly feed on low-growing mountain plants Vaccinium uliginosum and Vaccinium myrtillus, but have also been recorded on Salix caprea and Sorbusa ucuparia.

Gaia Consort is the original incarnation of Seattle-based folk rock music-group Bone Poets Orchestra. The group, popular in the Pacific Northwest of the United States, was founded as Gaia Consort by Chistopher Bingham and Sue Tinney in 1997. Their first performance was at Nudestock 97. Gaia Consort has worked with a large number of musicians from the Pacific NorthWest, including Heather Alexander and Dan Ochipinti of the Celtic folk-rock band Uffington Horse.
Gaia Consort released their first album, Gaia Circles in 1999, their second album Secret Voices in 2001, their third Evolve in 2004, and their fourth Vitus Dance in 2007.
The group has focused on playing at house concerts, self-produced shows and events such as Faerieworlds and Heartland Pagan Festival, instead of more traditional musical venues. This, in addition to their songs which frequently involve themes such as neopaganism, positive sexuality and polyamory, has made Gaia Consort a favorite of the pagan and sexual subcultures of the Pacific Northwest. They enjoy a strong fan base, evidenced from the fact that all of their albums are financed by donations from the listening community. Seattle filmmaker and polyamory advocate Terisa Greenan has produced several music videos for Gaia Consort.
Gaia Consort's philosophy is somewhat unusual in the music industry: the majority of the band's music is available freely on their website, and Gaia Consort actively encourages the non-commercial sharing of these MP3-format songs, saying that 'music should not be bottled up' for the few who can afford to pay for it.
A major theme of much of Gaia Consort's work is the greater world and how it affects our lives; religion is one such target, while other songs have a decidedly 'anti-war' tone (one song asks 'What will it come to when we've finally had enough?').

Leonardo da Vinci: Flights of the Mind is a 2004 biography of Leonardo da Vinci by Charles Nicholl.
Description
The book researches the life of Leonardo da Vinci in Tuscane and explores the reasons of his historic success. The author's main observation is that most of Leonardo's work was unfinished. Through a thorough research, the author dismisses most of the romanticized facts about da Vinci and concludes that a lot is unknown about the genius inventor. Leonardo is described as an engineer obsessed with natural designs. Washington Post writer Alexander Nagel criticized Nicholl's technical analysis of the inventor's paintings that lack insight and misses an opportunity to push deeper into the mind of Leonardo.
The author retranslates many of Leonardo's mirrorscript writings. Some guesswork is admittedly thrown in this biography: an old woman visiting Leonardo in 1493 becomes his mother; Freudian concepts are used to explain his probable homosexuality (Joseph missing from his representations of the Holy Family); His stay in jail is linked to his plans to reverse engineer locks... The author also argues that Leonardo's obsession with flying devices comes from his alchemical quest for a levitation technology.
David Gelernter criticized his interpretations around the hypothetical encounter of Michelangelo and Leonardo.
The release of Leonardo da Vinci: Flights of the Mind coincided with the release of another Leonardo biography, Leonardo by Martin Kemp.

Héctor Germán Buitrago Parada (January 23, 1968 in Monterrey, Casanare), also known as Martín Llanos, and also as Patezorro or Marroco, is a Colombian right-wing paramilitary leader and drug lord. At the time of his arrest by authorities he was considered the last one of the big paramilitary leaders, as he had been successful in evading capture for years.
Biography
Early life
By the end of the 1970s his father, Héctor José Buitrago Rodríguez (also known as "El Viejo" or "Tripas"), had assembled a group of cattle-raiser families in the municipalities of Monterrey, in the Casanare department, in the region of Colombia's eastern plains, and provided them with weapons so as to fight against extortion and kidnapping by the FARC guerrillas. As this early group, known as "Los Buitragueños," grew up in power and influence it became the basis of the Autodefensas Campesinas de Casanare (ACC), one of the most powerful paramilitary organizations in Colombia. The growth of the organization was supported by the economic and military support provided by drug lord Gonzalo Rodríguez Gacha, going from a group of about 60 individuals to about 500. It has also been suggested that the organization received support from emerald czar Víctor Carranza. With the death of Rodríguez Gacha in 1989, the ACC became closer to drug trafficking organizations in Venezuela.
Buitrago's father ordered a massacre of eleven members of a judicial commission in 1997, which led to his being arrested in 1998. He was liberated from jail by his sons, Buitrago and his brother Nelson (also known as "Caballo"), but eventually recaptured in 2010.
Command of ACC
With his father's arrest, Buitrago took command of the ACC, expanding their military influence as well as their trade with Mexican drug cartels, and its political influence by funding political campaigns. As the organization grew up in power and influence, however, this growth collided with the interests of the AUC paramilitary organization, which the ACC had never joined. The AUC wanted control of the departments of Meta and Casanare and this led to a violent war between the ACC and the Centaurs Bloc of the AUC under the command of paramilitary leaders including Miguel Arroyave and Cuchillo. Emerald czar Víctor Carranza was accused by paramilitary leader Don Mario as being an instigator of the conflict by telling both paramilitary leaders that the other was attempting to kill them. Other sources have suggested instead that Carranza actually helped the Buitrago side, as he had been long-time friend of Buitrago's father, and pushed local policemen to attack Arroyave's gunmen. Whatever the case, and despite recruiting hundreds of children and teenagers to help with the war, leaving thousands of fatalities behind, the AUC proved superior. This led to Buitrago seeking allegiances with former enemies from the FARC guerrilla, particularly commander Negro Acacio, to no avail. Famously, Arroyave seized a golden pistol that had been given to Buitrago as a gift by Mexican drug cartels.
Defeat
The defeat came at the same time as the AUC were negotiating a peace process with the national government of Álvaro Uribe. Buitrago decided not to adhere on the grounds of not wanting to be compared with other paramilitary leaders, and because he felt he could be betrayed and even killed as was the case with Carlos Castaño and even his former enemy Miguel Arroyave. Buitrago then decided to leave the country, spending time in Costa Rica, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Venezuela. While he remained outside of the country, however, his organization regained strength with the assassination of Arroyave and the peace negotiations, and the ACC started regaining control of coca growing lands and drug trafficking routes in Casanare and most of the eastern plains regions.
Arrest
Buitrago remained relatively anonymous throughout this time, and authorities only had an old picture of him, but after an international operation that involved tracking of Buitrago's wife and mistress they managed to capture him and his brother on February 4, 2012 in the eastern Venezuelan city of Acarigua. Buitrago was condemned to 35 years in prison for the assassination of 34 people. He was also condemned to 14 years for the murder of Casanare's governor Emiro Sossa in 2001.

Texhoma is a town in Texas County, Oklahoma, United States. The population was 856 at the 2020 census. Texhoma is a divided city with the Texas–Oklahoma state border separating the town from Texhoma, Texas. The name of the town is a portmanteau of Texas and Oklahoma. Founded around the Rock Island Railroad laying tracks through the area, much of the town's local economy is from ranching and livestock.
History
Before No Man's Land was opened for settlers in 1890, the area now known as the Oklahoma Panhandle was sparsely settled ranchland. After the opening, filing occurred on some of the land near the CCC Ranch, mostly by the cowboys, and sold to the ranch as soon as proved up. Expansion of the Rock Island Railroad tracks from Liberal, Kansas to Santa Rosa, New Mexico spurred the settlement's formation.
A post office named Loretta was established May 7, 1898, but anticipating the railroad, the post office in 1901 moved and changed its name to Texhoma, said name referring to the community's location on the state line. Very few claims were filed on until the railroad was assured. The town grew quickly to a population near 1,000, serving as the closest railroad town to the people who lived as far north and west as present Boise City, and south into the Texas Panhandle to the present town of Gruver.
The land was quickly homesteaded and proved to be a rich agricultural area.

The Chevrolet Silverado 250 was a NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race held at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park (Mosport). It was first held in 2013, and served as the second round of the Truck Series playoffs from their introduction in 2016.
History
The first race held on a road course by the Camping World Truck Series in 13 years, it was announced that the race would be held starting in 2013, on Labor Day weekend, in November 2012, replacing the previous NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Circuit Gilles Villeneuve as NASCAR's annual event held in Canada. In April 2013, it was announced that the race would be sponsored by General Motors Canada, becoming the Chevrolet Silverado 250.
The inaugural event, run September 1, 2013, saw James Buescher win the pole at a speed of ; Ty Dillon led the most laps in the race before contact between him and Chase Elliott at White's Corner coming to the checkered flag sent Dillon into a tire barrier. Dillon promised that "next week he won't finish the race" but he didn't pursue any payback eventually. In 2014, Ryan Blaney battled Germán Quiroga and won in a photo finish. In 2016, John Hunter Nemechek and Cole Custer were battling for the lead when Nemechek bumped Custer before running both Custer and himself off-road, pinning Custer to the wall. Before the winner was declared, Nemechek was tackled by Custer; Nemechek would be named the winner.
Starting in 2018, the race became a playoff race and was held as the opener of the playoffs, and the event had yet another last-lap showdown as Noah Gragson and teammate Todd Gilliland wrecked in White's Corner, which let Justin Haley past to take the win. In 2019, it became the second race of the first round of the playoffs.
The 2020 and 2021 races were canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic and replaced by dates at Darlington Raceway.

Sidi Mhand n'Ifrutant was a Moroccan military leader active during the Zaian War.
N'Ifrutant's force of 1,500 tribesmen was engaged in battle on 9 August 1918 by French Colonel Paul Doury at Gaouz. As the French force entered a thickly vegetated oasis, n'Ifrutant's men attacked and, in a closely fought action, inflicted losses of 238 killed and 68 wounded - the worst losses since the Battle of El Herri in 1914. Doury's commander, Hubert Lyautey chastised him for his rash actions and failed to believe his report that he had "almost annihilated" n'Ifrutant's troops. French General Joseph-François Poeymirau defeated n'Ifrutant in battle at Meski on 15 January 1919, but was seriously wounded in the chest by the accidental explosion of an artillery shell and forced to hand command to Colonel Antoine Huré.
N'Ifrutant's tomb, in the lower valley of the Ragg river, was venerated by members of the Aït Atta tribe.

Methane Emissions
In May 2023 the Guardian published a report, blaming Turkmenistan in general and Turkmenoil in particular to be the worst in the world for methane super emitting. The greenhouse gas was emitted in large amounts from flare stacks that had been extinguished and from a few pipeline leaks. Researchers suspected continuous flaring had been stopped to prevent conflicts with Turkmenistans laws and replaced by venting, which is also illegal, but much harder to detect. The data collected by Kayrros researchers indicate that two large fossil fuel fields leaked 2.6m and 1.8m tonnes of methane in 2022 alone, pumping the equivalent of 366m tonnes into the atmosphere, surpassing the annual emissions of the United Kingdom for 2022.

Águilas Blancas (), also known as Politécnico when representing the entirety of National Polytechnic Institute, founded as Águilas Blancas de la ESCA-ESIQIE, is a Mexican college football team based in the Casco de Santo Tomas neighborhood of Mexico City, Mexico. Águilas Blancas participate in the Green Conference as part of the National Student Organization of American Football (ONEFA). It is one of the most successful college football teams in Mexico having won five national championships throughout their history. They maintain a fierce rivalry with teams from the National Autonomous University of Mexico particularly with its Coyoacán based team from Ciudad Universitaria, Pumas Dorados de la UNAM.
The team plays in Estadio Wilfrido Massieu, and Enrique Zárate is the head coach since 2014.
History
This squad is the heir of the Burros Blancos IPN that was one of the oldest institution with an ancient American football tradition in Mexico (the other and their main competitor is the Pumas Dorados de la UNAM), the beginning of this squad can be traced to the late 1940s.
The modern age started in the sixties and the origin of this squad as we know it now was in the late sixties, when the National Polytechnic Institute decided to create three squads to represent its different schools: the Búhos (Owls) representing the ESM (School of Medicine) and the ENCB (Biological Sciences School), the Cheyennes representing the ESIME (School of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering) and the ESIA (School of Engineering and Architecture), and the Águilas Blancas representing the ESCA (School of Commerce and Administration) and the ESIQIE (School of Chemical Engineering).
Águilas Blancas was the best ranked team of the IPN during the first years after the foundation. The first championship came in 1973; later from 1974 to 1980 the squad found a lot of ups and downs; in 1981 came the second championship and in 1982 the third championship.
In 1986, due to the critical economic situation in Mexico, the IPN authorities decided to merge the three teams and then came the foundation of Poli Guinda.
1988 was the year of the fourth championship and this time the relevance was large, because Águilas Blancas (now revived) defeated the Pumas Dorados de la UNAM at the final match.
In 1992 came the fifth and last championship of the team.
From 1998 to 2006; the team did not reach any post season game, the season 2000 was the worst of its history. Today the team is in a renewal process and is one of the mayor candidates to win the championship of the new Green Conference (Conferencia Verde).
After the 2011 season, head coach Jacinto Licea left Águilas Blancas after coaching the team during its entire existence.
Enrique Zárate era (2014–present)
In 2014 Enrique Zárate, who previously was part of the Borregos CEM coaching staff, assumed as the new head coach of Águilas Blancas. Zárate played his college career with the Águilas Blancas.
In 2019 the Águilas Blancas reached a final again after 26 years, but lost against the Burros Blancos 17–24.

National championships
Rivalry
The team has an historic rivalry with Pumas Dorados de la UNAM, due to both of them being the biggest public universities in the country. More recently, another mayor rivalry arise with Borregos Salvajes Monterrey, Borregos Salvajes CEM, Aztecas UDLAP and recently with the Burros Blancos IPN.
Venue
The team plays at the Estadio Wilfrido Massieu, built in 1959 and renovated in 1994. The stadium has a seating capacity of 15,000. It is located north of Mexico City, within the Unidad Profesional Adolfo Lopez Mateos, IPN's main campus.

Claxton was a member of the Australia women's national field hockey team that were defeated by the Netherlands women's national field hockey team in the final of the 2014 Women's Hockey World Cup, a Gold Medal winner at the 2014 Commonwealth Games and member of the team that went to the 2016 Summer Olympics. She was also named captain of the Hockeyroos in November 2016 for the Tans-Tasman Trophy against New Zealand.
Playing career
Club hockey
Claxton played club hockey in Adelaide for the Burnside Bulldogs. Whilst living in Perth, she plays for Victoria Park Xavier Panthers (VPX) Premier League Women's competition, but wishes that she plays for Wesley South Perth (WASP's), as they beat Victoria Park Panthers last year in the Grand Final. But WASP's didn't even make the final in 2020 when Victoria Park won.
State hockey
Claxton played state representative hockey for South Australia in Under 12 (SAPSASA), Under 13, Under 15, Under 16(Secondary Schools), Under 18 and Under 21. In 2012, Claxton was Player of the Tournament at the U21 Women's National Hockey Championships where South Australia finished 2nd.
She has played eight years (2009–2016) in the Australian Hockey League including two years as Captain in 2015 and 2016.
In 2011, Claxton was a member of the Australian Hockey League team the SA Suns that won the national championship. She was Player of the Tournament at the 2015 Australian Hockey League held in Sydney.

Junior Bake Off is a British television baking competition in which young bakers aged 9 to 15 tackle a series of challenges involving baking cakes, biscuits, bread, and pastries, competing to be crowned Junior Bake Off Champion.
The series debuted in 2011 as a spin-off from The Great British Bake Off and is also produced by Love Productions. Four series of Junior Bake Off were broadcast on CBBC from 2011 to 2016. Following its parent series' departure from the BBC in 2017, Junior Bake Off resumed with a fifth series in 2019 on Channel 4, with comedian Harry Hill as presenter and Prue Leith and Liam Charles as judges. The fifth series concluded on 22 November 2019. The show returned for a sixth series on 11 January 2021. Junior Bake Off returned Monday 10 January 2022 for its seventh series and concluded on 28 January 2022. Junior Bake Off returned on 16 January 2023 for its eighth series and will conclude on 3 February 2023. On 2 February it was announced that Junior Bake Off has been renewed for its ninth series to air in 2024.
Format
Each series of Junior Bake Off includes 15 episodes. While The Great British Bake Off features three challenges per episode (signature, technical, and showstopper), Junior Bake Off includes only the technical and showstopper challenges. In the first four series, aired on CBBC from 2011–16, the format featured 40 young bakers aged 9 to 12 years old divided into 10 qualifying rounds or heats. Each episode featured only four bakers, with one winner each episode and the other three eliminated. The winning baker from each heat were brought back for 'Finals Week' (divided into two semi-finals, followed by two finals, and then one grand final) which determined the winner.
The format was altered in 2019 when the series moved to Channel 4. The episodes were increased from 30 minutes to one hour, the number of bakers halved to 20 (16 from series 6), and the upper age range of the contestants increased from 12 to 15 (changed back to 12 from series 8). Instead of only four bakers taking part in each qualifying round, the bakers are divided into two groups of 10 each, with five eliminated from one group during the first five episodes, and five eliminated from the second group during the second five episodes. The remaining five bakers from each group are combined in the week-long finals, resulting in quarterfinals, semifinals and finals. The 'Star Baker' award, given to the judges' favourite baker in each episode, was not included in the CBBC version of the show but is a part of the Channel 4 format.

Format is a function in Common Lisp that can produce formatted text using a format string similar to the printf format string. It provides more functionality than printf, allowing the user to output numbers in various formats (including, for instance: hex, binary, octal, roman numerals, and English), apply certain format specifiers only under certain conditions, iterate over data structures, output data tabularly, and even recurse, calling format internally to handle data structures that include their own preferred formatting strings. This functionally originates in MIT's Lisp Machine Lisp, where it was based on Multics ioa_.
Specification
The format function is specified by the syntax
Directives in the control string are interpolated using the format arguments, and the thus constructed character sequence is written to the destination.
Destination
The destination may either be a stream, a dynamic string, T, or the NIL constant; the latter of which presents a special case in that it creates, formats and returns a new string object, while T refers to the standard output, usually being equivalent to the console. Streams in Common Lisp comprehend, among others, string output and file streams; hence, being capable of writing to such a variety of destinations, this function unifies capabilities distributed among distinct commands in some other programming languages, such as C's printf for console output, sprintf for string formatting, and fprintf for file writing.
The multitude of destination types is exemplified in the following:
;; Prints "1 + 2 = 3" to the standard output and returns ``NIL''.
(format T "1 + 2 = ~d" 3)
;; Creates and returns a new string containing "1 + 2 = 3".
(format NIL "1 + 2 = ~d" 3)
;; Creates and returns a new string containing "1 + 2 = 3".
(with-output-to-string (output)
(format output "1 + 2 = ~d" 3))
;; Writes to the file "outputFile.txt" the string "1 + 2 = 3".
(with-open-file (output "outputFile.txt"
:direction :output
:if-does-not-exist :create
:if-exists :append)
(format output "1 + 2 = ~d" 3))
;; Appends to the dynamic string the string "1 + 2 = 3".
(let ((output-string (make-array 0
:element-type 'character
:adjustable T
:fill-pointer 0)))
(declare (type string output-string))
(format output-string "1 + 2 = ~d" 3)
(the string output-string))
Control string and format arguments
The control string may contain literal characters as well as the meta character ~ (tilde), which demarcates format directives. While literals in the input are echoed verbatim, directives produce a special output, often consuming one or more format arguments.
Directives
A format directive, introduced by a ~, is followed by zero or more prefix parameters, zero or more modifiers, and the directive type. A directive definition, hence, must conform to the pattern
The directive type is always specified by a single character, case-insensitive in the case of letters. The data to be processed by a format directive, if at all necessary, is called its format argument and may be zero or more objects of any type compatible. Whether and in which quantity such data is accepted depends on the directive and potential modifiers applied unto it. The directive type ~%, for instance, abstains from the consumption of any format arguments, whereas ~d expects exactly one integer number to print, and ~@{, a directive influenced by the at-sign modifier, processes all remaining arguments.
The following directive, ~b, expects one number object from the format arguments and writes its binary (radix 2) equivalent to the standard output.
(format T "~b" 5)
Where configurations are permissive, prefix parameters may be specified.
Prefix parameters
Prefix parameters enable an injection of additional information into a directive to operate upon, similar to the operation of parameters when provided to a function. Prefix parameters are always optional, and, if provided, must be located between the introducing ~ and either the modifiers or, if none present, the directive type. The values are separated by commas, but do not tolerate whitespaces on either side. The number and type of these parameters depends on the directive and the influence of potential modifiers.
Two particular characters may be utilized as prefix parameter values with distinctive interpretation: v or V acts as a placeholder for an integer number or character from the format arguments which is consumed and placed into its stead. The second special character, #, is substituted by the tally of format arguments yet abiding their consumption. Both v and # enable behavior defined by dynamic content injected into the prefix parameter list.
The v parameter value introduces a functionality equivalent to a variable in the context of general programming. Given this simple scenario, in order to left-pad a binary representation of the integer number 5 to at least eight digits with zeros, the literal solution is as follows:
(format T "~8,'0b" 5)
The first prefix parameter controlling the output width may, however, be defined in terms of the v character, delegating the parameter value specification to the next format argument, in our case 8.
(format T "~v,'0b" 8 5)
Solutions of this kind are particularly a benefit if parts of the prefix parameter list shall be described by variables or function arguments instead of literals, as is the case in the following piece of code:
(let ((number-of-digits 8))
(declare (type (integer 0 *) number-of-digits))
(format T "~v,'0b" number-of-digits 5))
Even more fitting in those situations involving external input, a function argument may be passed into the format directive:
(defun print-as-hexadecimal (number-to-format number-of-digits)
"Prints the NUMBER-TO-FORMAT in the hexadecimal system (radix 16),
left-padded with zeros to at least NUMBER-OF-DIGITS."
(declare (type number number-to-format))
(declare (type (integer 0 *) number-of-digits))
(format T "~v,'0x" number-of-digits number-to-format))
(print-as-hexadecimal 12 2)
# as a prefix parameter tallies those format arguments not yet processed by preceding directives, doing so without actually consuming anything from this list. The utibility of such a dynamically inserted value is preponderantly restricted to use cases pertaining to conditional processing. As the argument number can only be an integer number greater than or equal to zero, its significance coincides with that of an index into the clauses of a conditional ~[ directive.
The interplay of the special # prefix parameter value with the conditional selection directive ~[ is illustrated in the following example. The condition states four clauses, accessible via the indices 0, 1, 2, and 3 respectively. The number of format arguments is employed as the means for the clause index retrieval; to do so, we insert # into the conditional directive which permits the index to be a prefix parameter. # computes the tally of format arguments and suggests this number as the selection index. The arguments, not consumed by this act, are then available to and processed by the selected clause's directives.
;; Prints "none selected".
(format T "~#[none selected~;one selected: ~a~;two selected: ~a and ~a~:;more selected: ~@{~a~^, ~}~]")
;; Prints "one selected: BUNNY".
(format T "~#[none selected~;one selected: ~a~;two selected: ~a and ~a~:;more selected: ~@{~a~^, ~}~]" 'bunny)
;; Prints "two selected: BUNNY and PIGEON".
(format T "~#[none selected~;one selected: ~a~;two selected: ~a and ~a~:;more selected: ~@{~a~^, ~}~]" 'bunny 'pigeon)
;; Prints "more selected: BUNNY, PIGEON, MOUSE".
(format T "~#[none selected~;one selected: ~a~;two selected: ~a and ~a~:;more selected: ~@{~a~^, ~}~]" 'bunny 'pigeon 'mouse)
Modifiers
Modifiers act in the capacity of flags intending to influence the behavior of a directive. The admission, magnitude of behavioral modification and effect, as with prefix parameters, depends upon the directive. In some severe cases, the syntax of a directive may be varied to a degree as to invalidate certain prefix parameters; this power especially distinguishes modifiers from most parameters. The two valid modifier characters are @ (at-sign) and : (colon), possibly in combination as either :@ or @:.
The following example illustrates a rather mild case of influence exerted upon a directive by the @ modifier: It merely ensures that the binary representation of a formatted number is always preceded by the number's sign:
(format T "~@b" 5)

|Prints an expression based upon a condition. These expressions, or clauses, are separated by the ~; directive, and a default clause can be stated by using ~:; as its leading separator. The number of permitted clauses depends upon the concrete variety of this directive as stated by its modifier or modifiers. The whole conditional portion must be terminated with a ~].
Full form: ~[clause1~;...~;clauseN~:;defaultClause~].

Full form: ~selectionIndex[clause1~;...~;clauseN~:;defaultClause~].
This syntax commends itself especially in conjunction with the special prefix parameter character # which equates the selected element with the number of format arguments left to process. A directive of this kind allows for a very concise modeling of multiple selections.
No modifier: The format argument must be a zero-based integer index, its value being that of the clause to select and print.
: modifier: Selects the first clause if the format argument is NIL, otherwise the second one.
@ modifier: Only processes the clause if the format argument is T, otherwise skips it.
:@ modifier: Invalid.
|-
|
|Iterates over one or more format arguments and prints these. The iterative portion must be closed with a ~} directive. If the directive ~^ is found inside of the enclosed portion, any content following it is only consumed if the current element is not the last one in the processed list. If the prefix parameter numberOfRepetitions is specified, its value defines the maximum number of elements to process; otherwise all of these are consumed.
Full form: ~numberOfRepetitions{expression~}.
No modifier: A single format argument is expected to be a list, its elements are consumed in order by the enclosed directives.
: modifier: Expects the format argument to be a list of lists, consuming its sublists.
@ modifier: Regards all remaining format arguments as a list and consumes these.
:@ modifier: Regards all remaining format arguments as a list of sublists, consuming these sublists.
|-

: modifier: Invalid.
@ modifier: Expects separate format arguments instead of a list of these for the inserted portion, as one would specify in the usual manner.
:@ modifier: Invalid.
|-
|
|Modifies the case of the enclosed string.
Full form: ~(expression~).
No modifier: Converts all characters to lower case.
: modifier: Capitalizes all words.
@ modifier: Capitalizes the first word only, converts the rest to lower case.
:@ modifier: Converts all characters to upper case.
|-
| ,
|Prints a singular or plural suffix depending upon the numeric format argument.
Full form: ~p.
No modifier: Prints nothing if the argument equals 1, otherwise prints s.
: modifier: Moves back to the last consumed format argument, printing nothing if it was 1, otherwise printing s.
@ modifier: Prints a y if the argument equals 1, otherwise prints ies.
:@ modifier: Moves back to the last consumed format argument, printing y if it was 1, otherwise printing ies.
|-
|
|Used in an iteration directive ~{...~} to terminate processing of the enclosed content if no further format arguments follow.
Full form: ~p1,p2,p3^.
The termination condition depends on the number of prefix parameters supplied:
If no prefix parameter is specified, the directive ceases if zero arguments remain to process.
If one prefix parameter p1 is specified, the directive ceases if p1 resolves to zero.
If two prefix parameters p1 and p2 are specified, the directive ceases if p1 equals p2.
If three prefix parameters p1, p2 and p3 are specified, the directive ceases if it holds: p1 ≤ p2 ≤ p3.
No modifier: Operates as described.

Example
An example of a C printf call is the following:
printf("Color %s, number1 %d, number2 %05d, hex %x, float %5.2f, unsigned value %u.\n",
"red", 123456, 89, 255, 3.14, 250);
Using Common Lisp, this is equivalent to:
(format t "Color ~A, number1 ~D, number2 ~5,'0D, hex ~X, float ~5,2F, unsigned value ~D.~%"
"red" 123456 89 255 3.14 250)
;; prints: Color red, number1 123456, number2 00089, hex FF, float 3.14, unsigned value 250.
Another example would be to print every element of list delimited with commas, which can be done using the , and } directives:
(let ((groceries '(eggs bread butter carrots)))
(format t "~{~A~^, ~}.~%" groceries) ; Prints in uppercase
(format t "~:(~{~A~^, ~}~).~%" groceries)) ; Capitalizes output
;; prints: EGGS, BREAD, BUTTER, CARROTS.
;; prints: Eggs, Bread, Butter, Carrots.
Note that not only is the list of values iterated over directly by format, but the commas correctly are printed between items, not after them. A yet more complex example would be printing out a list using customary English phrasing:
(let ((template "The lucky winners were:~#[ none~; ~S~; ~S and ~S~
~:;~@{~#[~; and~] ~S~^,~}~]."))
(format nil template)
;; ⇒ "The lucky winners were: none."
(format nil template 'foo)
;; ⇒ "The lucky winners were: FOO."
(format nil template 'foo 'bar)
;; ⇒ "The lucky winners were: FOO and BAR."
(format nil template 'foo 'bar 'baz)
;; ⇒ "The lucky winners were: FOO, BAR, and BAZ."
(format nil template 'foo 'bar 'baz 'quux)
;; ⇒ "The lucky winners were: FOO, BAR, BAZ, and QUUX."
)
The ability to define a new directive through ~/functionName/ provides the means for customization. The next example implements a function which prints an input string either in lowercase, uppercase or reverse style, permitting a configuration of the number of repetitions, too.
(defun mydirective (destination
format-argument
colon-modifier-supplied-p
at-sign-modifier-supplied-p
&optional (repetitions 1))
"This function represents a callback suitable as a directive in a
``format'' invocation, expecting a string as its FORMAT-ARGUMENT
to print REPETITIONS number of times to the DESTINATION.
---
The COLON-MODIFIER-SUPPLIED-P and AT-SIGN-MODIFIER-SUPPLIED-P flags
expect a generalized Boolean each, being the representatives of the
``:'' and ``@'' modifiers respectively. Their influence is defined
as follows:
- If no modifier is set, the FORMAT-ARGUMENT is printed without
further modifications.
- If the colon modifier is set, but not the at-sign modifier, the
FORMAT-ARGUMENT is converted into lowercase before printing.
- If the at-modifier is set, but not the colon-modifier, the
FORMAT-ARGUMENT is converted into uppercase before printing.
- If both modifiers are set, the FORMAT-ARGUMENT is reversed before
printing.
---
The number of times the FORMAT-ARGUMENT string is to be printed is
determined by the prefix parameter REPETITIONS, which must be a
non-negative integer number and defaults to one."
(declare (type (or null (eql T) stream string) destination))
(declare (type T format-argument))
(declare (type T colon-modifier-supplied-p))
(declare (type T at-sign-modifier-supplied-p))
(declare (type (integer 0 *) repetitions))
(let ((string-to-print format-argument))
(declare (type string string-to-print))
;; Adjust the STRING-TO-PRINT based upon the modifiers.
(cond
((and colon-modifier-supplied-p at-sign-modifier-supplied-p)
(setf string-to-print (reverse string-to-print)))
(colon-modifier-supplied-p
(setf string-to-print (string-downcase string-to-print)))
(at-sign-modifier-supplied-p
(setf string-to-print (string-upcase string-to-print)))
(T
NIL))
(loop repeat repetitions do
(format destination "~a" string-to-print))))
;; Print "Hello" a single time.
(format T "~/mydirective/" "Hello")
;; Print "Hello" three times.
(format T "~3/mydirective/" "Hello")
;; Print a lowercase "Hello" (= "hello") three times.
(format T "~3:/mydirective/" "Hello")
;; Print an uppercase "Hello" (= "HELLO") three times.
(format T "~3@/mydirective/" "Hello")
;; Print a reversed "Hello" (= "olleH") three times.
(format T "~3:@/mydirective/" "Hello")
Whilst format is somewhat infamous for its tendency to become opaque and hard to read, it provides a remarkably concise yet powerful syntax for a specialised and common need.

The Pandectists were German university legal scholars in the early 19th century who studied and taught Roman law as a model of what they called Konstruktionsjurisprudenz (conceptual jurisprudence) as codified in the Pandects of Justinian (Berman).
Beginning in the mid-19th century, the Pandectists were attacked in arguments by noted jurists Julius Hermann von Kirchmann and Rudolf von Jhering, who favored a modern approach of law as a practical means to an end (Weber).
In the United States, Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. and other legal realists pushed for laws based on what judges and the courts actually did, rather than the historical and conceptual or academic law of Friedrich Carl von Savigny and the Pandectists (Rosenberg).
