he studied at the Hochschule für die Wissenschaft des Judentums and the University of Berlin and in parallel at the University of Würzburg. There he received his doctorate in 1933 with his thesis Die Haltung der Reichstagsfraktion der Fortschrittlichen Volkspartei zu den Annexions- und Friedensfragen in den Jahren 1914-1918. In 1935 he received the rabbinate diploma from the university and shortly thereafter, on September 15, 1935, at the age of only twenty-three, he took office as rabbi of the Jewish community of Göttingen and was - until today (as of 2021) - the last rabbi in Göttingen. A short time later he was also given the office of district rabbi for southern Lower Saxony and thus the care for the Jewish communities in Einbeck, Moringen, Hannoversch Münden, Duderstadt, Bovenden, Bremke, Adelebsen, Geismar and Dransfeld. From January 1938 Hermann Ostfeld stayed in Palestine for a few weeks. After his return, it was clear to him that he would be active in research at the University of Jerusalem in the future. The chairman of the Jewish community of Göttingen Max Raphasel Hahn and his brother Nathan Hahn gave him 5000 Reichsmark for his new life in Palestine. After 1945 he paid the money back to the Hahn children.

henna tattooing is a universal art style and sees nothing wrong with her having a stall. Nishat and Chyna attempt to sabotage each other while Flávia remains mostly unaware of the rivalry. Flávia eventually realizes that why her use of henna bothers Nishat, and she stops. Nishat's parents become more accepting of their daughter, and she becomes romantically involved with Flávia. Major themes The novel deals with a number of themes, including racism, homophobia, Islamophobia, and coming-of-age. The intersection between Nishat's cultural identity and her sexual identity is a central theme of the novel. Lana Barnes of Shelf Awareness described Nishat's struggle as "the dichotomy of wanting to break from the constraints of tradition while still maintaining strong ties to culture and beliefs." Reception The Henna Wars has received generally positive reviews, including starred reviews from Kirkus Reviews and Shelf Awareness. Kirkus Reviews praised the book's handling of its themes, saying it "weaves issues of racism and homophobia into a fast-moving plot peopled with richly drawn characters." Booklist said it was "a wholly uncontrived story with lesbians who aren't just brown but diverse in a multitude of ways." Shelf Awareness''' Lana Barnes considered the handling of its themes to be "tactful, sincere and culturally immersive." Imogen Russell Williams of The Guardian called it "a brilliant debut; romantic, thought-provoking and entirely unique." Writing for NPR, Caitlyn Paxon recommended the book specifically to "teens who are navigating their own tightrope of identities and assure them that it's okay to be messy." Molly Saunders from School Library Journal echoed the sentiment, writing that the book was"[d]eeply satisfying" and "[h]ighly recommended for fans of school stories that celebrate intersectional experiences."Time included The Henna Wars on their list of the 100 Best Young Adult Books of All Time, alongside novels such

Nishat enters a school entrepreneurial competition starts a Mehndi stall, offering henna tattoos. Flávia and Chyna also open a henna stall to enter the competition, which angers Nishat who feels that they are engaging in cultural appropriation. Flávia, by contrast, feels that henna tattooing is a universal art style and sees nothing wrong with her having a stall. Nishat and Chyna attempt to sabotage each other while Flávia remains mostly unaware of the rivalry. Flávia eventually realizes that why her use of henna bothers Nishat, and she stops.

between 1970 and 1982. Convicted and sentenced to death by the state of California, where two of his murders occurred, Danielson killed himself while awaiting execution at San Quentin State Prison in September 1995. Murders In June 1970, Danielson got into an argument with 21-year-old Thomas Elroy Davis, which ended when Davis was shot and killed. He was charged with first-degree murder not long after, but after an initial mistrial, which resulted from the prosecution presenting improper evidence, that charge was dismissed. Instead, in November 1970, Danielson pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter, receiving a sentence of 25-years-imprisonment. In 1981, after serving eleven years of his sentence at Oregon State Penitentiary, Danielson was granted parole, and was released from prison. On December 9, 1981, Danielson confronted 60-year-old Harold and 55-year-old Betty Pratt at a desert campsite in Arizona. He bound their hands with a rope, and shot both in the head, execution style, and later stole their pickup truck. The next day, their bodies were discovered, and their truck was found abandoned in Yuma. In the subsequent investigation, investigators put out a reward of $5,000 for information. In the following months, Danielson stumbled upon 14-year-old Lenora Hart Johnson in Springfield, Oregon, and the two sparked a relationship, with Johnson herself later stating it was “like a common-law marriage”. On June 25, 1982, Danielson and Johnson bound 62-year-old Arthur Gray at a park in Eugene, Oregon, and Danielson shot him in the back of the head. In July, Danielson accompanied by Johnson, stumbled into 69-year-old Benjamin and 62-year-old Edith Shaffer at a park in Manchester, California.

In 1722, he was replaced by the official Hans Nobel. In the first round, the bids were so low that they were not accepted. Nobel eventually managed to sell about half of the churches, mostly those that had profitable land attached to them. Interest in the sale increased when the government clarified that the new church owners could collect the tithe from the congregation directly. The first sale was completed on 3 May 1723. The bulk of the sale was completed by 1726, and the last set of churches were sold by 1730. About two-thirds of those who bought the churches were government officials and of these, bishops and priests bought most churches. About a quarter of the churches were sold to farmers, either alone or several farmers together. About a tenth of the churches were sold to city dwellers. If the buyer had money owed to them by the Treasury, this was deducted from the purchase price. Since the Kingdom was not great at paying its debts during this period, it was often desirable for those people to buy churches as a way of ensuring that they could claim the money owed to them by the government. The buyers took over all the wealth and debt of each church. The estates that came with the churches were largely left to their tenant farmers, who had to pay land debts to the church. The estate could not be sold and separated from the church. The church owner was thus entitled to taxes from those who used the church land. This could be very lucrative, but at the same time the church owner was also responsible for ensuring that the church was properly maintained, and they also had to supply the church with bread and wine for communion and other necessities. Much of this was financed through tithes and fees
priests. Later, most churches were bought back by the congregation, often with help from the municipality. In retrospect, this church sale has been criticized in relation to whether the King even had ownership of these properties. On the other hand, it can be considered a taxation of the rich in society - as it was they who often bought these properties in auctions. History The sale was announced by posters hung on churches on 1 August 1721. As early as 1710, King Frederick IV had decided to sell the Norwegian churches, but this was not done at that time. When the sale was decided in 1721, the city churches, the churches in northern Norway, and the churches that were lent to the counties of Jarlsberg and Larvik, as well as the Barony Rosendal were excluded. Also, there was no sale of churches and properties in Northern Østerdal. The Bishop of Christiania Bartholomæus Deichman was initially given the main responsibility for the sale. In 1722, he was replaced by the official Hans Nobel. In the first round, the bids were so low that they were not accepted. Nobel eventually managed to sell about half of the churches, mostly those that had profitable land attached to them.

Davis later described Washington as an apt student who readily learned, no matter the course material, and that he was popular among his fellow students. In addition to Washington, other students who attended the Tinkersville school were Dr. Samuel Courtney of Boston, Professor H. B. Rice of Charleston, and Washington's wife, Fannie Smith Washington. Davis provided the school's first monthly report to the Freedmen's Bureau in November 1867, in which he described the Tinkerschool school as a primary school and noted that it was supported in part by the local township school board and in part by the African-American residents. Davis noted that he was the only teacher, and he stated, "General apathy prevails," when characterizing the support of the township, "where there is not decided prejudice and opposition." Davis continued to make progress with his students, and by January 1868, all but three of his students were "advanced readers." Following his marriage in 1869, Davis relocated to Charleston, and continued to teach at the Tinkersville school, walking to and from there each school day. Davis's abilities as an educator became widely known throughout the Kanawha River valley, and in 1871, he was hired to serve as principal of Charleston's African-American schools. His assistant was initially Reverend J. W. Dansbury. When Davis commenced his tenure there, the schools were located in a two-room building on Quarrier Street, and had an enrollment of around 100 students. Soon after, the building expanded to four rooms. In 1872, the Kanawha County Schools superintendent lauded Davis as being "well qualified in every way" and awarded him with a first grade teaching certificate. While serving as principal, Davis's subsequent assistants included Janie Bullard, Charles P. Keys, P. B. Burbridge, Harry Payne, James Bullard, and William T. McKinney. He also received the support of white benefactors, the most prominent of which was Edward Moore, who operated a school for African-Americans in Pennsylvania. Davis was in charge of Charleston's African-American schools for 31 years, and he served as principal of the graded school for a total of 24 years, and served as a teacher in the city's schools for a total of 47 years. During his tenure as principal, Davis was demoted to a subordinate teaching position, and was briefly brought back to serve as principal. When Davis departed as principal, the school building had grown to five rooms, and had instituted a grade system, standardized instruction, and employed current educational methods. He retired from the Charleston schools in 1913. According to the Charleston Daily Mail, almost every African-American person in Charleston was either a student or under the direct supervision of Davis. In addition to his career in instruction and administration, Davis also served on the Kanawha County Board of Examiners. Davis and his corps of teachers were among the first in West Virginia to advocate for a state institute of higher learning for African-Americans in the Southern West Virginia, which eventually resulted in the establishment of the West Virginia Colored Institute (present-day West Virginia State University) at Institute. Gubernatorial campaign In September 1888, the Colored Independent Party was organized by 49 African-American delegates at a convention in Charleston, where the party selected its state executive committee and nominated its state ticket for the 1888 elections. The party nominated Davis as their candidate for West Virginia governor, leading the party's state ticket. The convention opposed the Republican Party because of its refusal to recognize West Virginia's African-American voters. In addition, the party denounced school segregation, and also opposed corporations, monopolies, and trusts. Davis's campaign in the 1888 West Virginia gubernatorial election made it the first major election in the
home. Davis was the first teacher of Booker T. Washington at the Tinkersville school. In 1871, Davis was hired to serve as principal of Charleston's African-American schools. Davis served as principal of the graded school for a total of 24 years, and served as a teacher in the schools for a total of 47 years (including his 24 years as principal). He retired from teaching in 1913. In 1888, the Colored Independent Party nominated Davis as the party's gubernatorial candidate in the 1888 elections. The party organized in opposition to the Republican Party because of its refusal to recognize West Virginia's African-American voters and advocated for an end to school segregation. Davis became the first African-American nominated as a candidate for West Virginia governor, and the only African-American candidate for governor to date. When Booker T. Washington was honored at a 1937 Tuskegee University anniversary celebration, Davis was invited and attended as a guest of honor. At the time of his death in 1938, Davis was one of two remaining Grand Army of the Republic members in the Charleston area. Early life and education William H. Davis was born in Columbus, Ohio, on November 27, 1848. He was the son of John and Eveline Davis. Davis's father was an active, albeit unofficial, supporter of the Underground Railroad, providing refuge and food for slaves escaping from the Southern United States. Davis was raised in Columbus, and was educated in the public schools, until the age of 13, when he relocated to Chillicothe and remained there from 1861 to 1863 to study English education at public schools. He returned to Columbus in fall 1863. Military service During the American Civil War, on December 18, 1863, at Columbus, Davis enlisted in the 7th Independent Company of the Ohio Volunteer Cavalry, known as the Union Light Guard, in the Union Army. Davis's unit was a cavalry regiment that guarded President Abraham Lincoln, was variously known as the "President's Escort" and "Lincoln's Body Guard", and stationed at Washington, D.C., during the war. The Light Guard encamped by the White House and guarded the War Department building and other government buildings in Washington. Davis served with the rank of private, and worked as an assistant cook with a salary of $7 per month (). Davis served in the Union Army for 18 months, until he was hospitalized with an infection of the mastoid part of his temporal bone following severe head pains. While in the hospital, the physicians incised and drained the infected area, and Davis was afterward honorably discharged from his duty at Camp Todd Barracks in Washington, D.C., on June 24, 1865, a few months after the war's conclusion. Davis never fully recovered from his infection, suffering pain, enduring incising, and experiencing deafness in one year for the remainder of his life. Following his military service, Davis returned to Columbus on June 27, 1865, to work with his father. He then relocated to Cincinnati, where he was hired to operate the steamboat, known variously as Victor or Victoria, between Gallipolis, Charleston, and Brownstown (present-day Marmet). Davis operated this boat for about a month, and in September 1865, he began boarding with Reverend Lewis Rice in the Tinkersville section of Malden (then known as Kanawha Salines), near Charleston. Career in education At the time of Davis's arrival in September 1865, Malden had a large African-American population, consisting of former slaves who had previously been brought to Kanawha County to work in the local salt industry, and former slaves who arrived to work in the salt industry following the war. While in Malden, it became known among the town's residents that Davis could read and write. Reverend Rice offered Davis a job teaching former slaves, and Davis resigned his position on the boat, and at the age of 18, he became a schoolteacher at Rice's privately operated Tinkersville school. The Tinkersville school was one of the first African-American schools in Kanawha County, and the first school in the Kanawha River valley to be conducted by an African-American instructor. It was funded by the poor residents of Malden, and was first conducted in Rice's log home. The school transitioned from Rice's bedroom to a local church, and then a purpose-built classroom, following meager support from the local township school board. Davis arrived at Malden about one month after the arrival of Booker T. Washington and his family from Hale's Ford, Virginia, and while teaching at the Tinkersville school, Washington was one of his students. Davis was Washington's first teacher. He traveled to Washington's home to tutor and teach him outside of school hours, and took a special interest in Washington. Davis later described Washington as an apt student who readily learned, no matter the course material, and that he was popular among his fellow students. In addition to Washington, other students

plagues upon the Philistines (1 Samuel 5) and devastation to the town of Beth-shemesh (1 Samuel 6:19). David was unwilling to take more risks, so the ark was left for three months at the place of Obed-Edom the Gittite, one of David's loyal servants since his time in Ziklag, who was a non-Israelite (and possibly a worshipper of another god), but willingly housed the ark. Verse 2 And David arose and went with all the people who were with him from Baale Judah to bring up from there the ark of God, whose name is called by the Name, the LORD of Hosts, who dwells between the cherubim. "Baale Judah": also known as Baalah or Kirjathbaal, a city in the tribe of Judah, and the same with Kiriath-Jearim (Joshua 15:9; 1 Chronicles 13:6). After the return from the Philistines, the ark was transported from Bethshemesh to this place (1 Samuel 7:1) and remained there until this time, nearly fifty years. Verse 3 So they set the ark of God on a new cart, and brought it out of the house of Abinadab, which was on the hill; and Uzzah and Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drove the new cart. "A new cart": after these words, Septuagint has an addition "with the ark". The use of cart might be intended as a mark of respect (cf. 1 Samuel 6:7), but it was against the words of Torah (Numbers 7:9) that requires the ark to be carried by the Levites, although this might to be considered impractical at the time due to the condition of the terrain ("on the hill"). "House of Abinadab": At this time Abinadab himself may have been long dead, so Uzzah and Ahio could be either his sons, now advanced in life, or his grandsons. "On the hill": rendered in KJV and some English versions as "in Gibeah" (cf. 1 Samuel 7:1. The Ark of the Covenant entered Jerusalem (6:12–23) Despite some bitter experience with the ark, David was adamant to bring it to Jerusalem, this time with a blessing (verse 12), and again with much celebration and sacrifice. As the ark finally entered Jerusalem, the celebration reached its peak, with David, only wearing 'a linen ephod' (a priestly garment, which only covered the body and loins), leading vigorous circular dances with the assembly of people accompanied by blasts on the trumpet, the sopar or ram's horn for this joyous event. The ark was housed in a tent specially made for it by David (verse 17), not the same as the original wilderness 'tabernacle', but was probably constructed with some features that were later adopted when constructing the Temple for the ark.

that engaged in nonviolent civil disobedience to raise awareness and to advocate for the rights of disabled people. She is a featured subject of the 2022 BBC docudrama Then Barbara Met Alan, and appeared in The Disabled Century on BBC2 in 1999. Early life and education Lisicki was raised in North London with her siblings by her mother. She has said she was expelled from a school that "was a convent run by nuns. I was rejecting the mindless discipline and religious zealotry." Lisicki began showing signs of Stills disease around age 14, and spent more than a year in a specialty hospital using a wheelchair. According to Lisicki, "we used to dump the wheelchairs in the bushes and hitchhike to the pub [...] They'd be sending out search parties and we'd be down there having a vodka and lime. I was 16." She graduated from university and completed a postgraduate teaching program, but was unsuccessful in finding work as a teacher. Career In 1988, Lisicki began her comedy career in London, performing stand-up in a cabaret. In 1989, she met Alan Holdsworth when they were both performers in the Disability Arts Cabaret. She co-founded the Tragic But Brave group with Holdsworth and Ian Stanton in the late 1980s, and they toured for years in the UK, Europe, and the United States. Holdsworth performed music under the stage name Johnny Crescendo, and she performed as Wanda Barbara. Lisicki and Holdsworth were also active in the Disability Arts Movement, which adopted the slogan "Piss on Pity" and protested stereotypes of disabled people in advertising, films, and by charities. In 1989, Lisicki participated on the BBC discussion show Network and explained the opposition to how disabled people
charity, you’re not going to see them as your equal". After ITV Studios began charity telethons, Holdsworth was asked to help organize protests against the depiction of disabled people. According to Lisicki, "These were hideous TV telethons that lasted something like 27 hours and portrayed disabled people in a manner where they should be pitied. It wasn't representative of the disabled community and was patronising." In 1990 and 1992, the Disability Arts Movement was involved in the Block Telethon protests outside of ITV Studios, with Lisicki and Holdsworth serving as organizers in 1992 for a protest that included over 1000 people blocking celebrities from entering the studio building. ITV Studios ended its telethon after 1992. In 1993, Lisicki, Holdworth, and Sue Elsegood became founders of the Disabled People's Direct Action Network (DAN). DAN organized protests and nonviolent civil disobedience to promote the rights of disabled people, and Lisicki explained in 2015, "We brought people together who had had enough of not having any protection against discrimination." Acts of civil disobedience in the 1990s included protesters blocking roads and chaining themselves to buses. Protest locations included the Westminster Bridge, the Nottinghamshire constituency office of Kenneth Clarke, Harrods, and the Tate Gallery. In 1995, the Disability Discrimination Act became law, providing the first protections against disability discrimination in the UK, and protests continued, including a sit-in at Labour party headquarters in 1996, and in 1997, protesters chaining themselves to the gates of Downing Street. In 2015, Lisicki stated, "Some people thought 'we've won with the Disability Discrimination Act' [...] We didn't win. It was never a victory. All that I ever say to people is that at least now the government agrees with us that discrimination happens." In 1999, Lisicki appeared at the end of The Disabled Century, a BBC production about

was held on Saturday, November 17, 2018, in Homestead, Florida at Homestead–Miami Speedway, a permanent oval-shaped racetrack. The race took the scheduled 200 laps to complete. At race's end, JR Motorsports driver Tyler Reddick would take the lead after cunning pit strategy late in the race to win his first career NASCAR Xfinity Series championship, his 3rd win of his career in the series, and his second and final win of the season. Background Homestead-Miami Speedway is a motor racing track located in Homestead, Florida. The track, which has several configurations, has promoted several series of racing, including NASCAR, the Verizon IndyCar Series, the Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series and the Championship Cup Series. Since 2002, Homestead-Miami Speedway has hosted the final race of the season in all three of NASCAR's series: the Sprint Cup Series, Xfinity Series and Gander Outdoors Truck Series. Ford Motor Company sponsors all three of the season-ending races; the races have the names Ford EcoBoost 400, Ford EcoBoost 300 and Ford EcoBoost 200, respectively, and the weekend is marketed as Ford Championship Weekend. The Xfinity Series (then known as the Busch Series) has held its season-ending races at Homestead since 1995 and held it until 2020, when it was moved to Phoenix Raceway, along with NASCAR's other two series. Championship drivers Christopher Bell advanced after winning the 2018 Whelen Trusted to Perform 200. Cole Custer advanced after winning the 2018 O'Reilly Auto Parts 300. Daniel Hemric advanced by virtue of points. Tyler Reddick advanced by virtue of points. Entry list *Driver changed to Landon Cassill for qualifying and the race.

sustained was to the pilot in the 182. The incident achieved considerable publicity when footage of the collision taken from five of the skydivers' helmet cameras was licensed to CBS News. Accident Both aircraft were being operated by Skydive Superior on local skydiving flights from Richard I. Bong Airport for a planned sunset parachute jump. On the night of the accident, both aircraft, the leading Cessna 182 Skylane, aircraft registration N70520, and the trailing Cessna 185 Skywagon, N94059, departed in a "rectangular pattern" until both reached jump altitude of 12,700 feet (3870 m) mean sea level (MSL). The skydivers in the 182 walked out onto the aircraft step preparing to jump. The 185 then struck the top of the 182, smashing the 182's windshield, tearing off its right wing, and causing its
jumped from their respective aircraft and deployed their parachutes, the pilot of the 182 parachuted to safety, and the pilot of the 185 regained control and landed safely at the departure airport. Only the pilot of the leading 182 sustained minor injuries; all nine skydivers and the 185 pilot survived uninjured. The 185 was substantially damaged in the collision, while the 182 was destroyed by the collision and subsequent uncontrolled ground impact. Aftermath All nine skydivers and both pilots were interviewed on The TODAY Show three days after the accident. One of the surviving skydivers said "It seemed like it's getting closer, closer, closer and all of a sudden it clicked like, 'This is too close.' The impact just threw me back."

the Moscow Restaurant became well known across the city. Despite its appearance as a Western fine dining establishment, the dishes were quite affordable, and in the 1980s, the restaurant became a popular place for weddings. Its history as formerly the only foreign restaurant in Beijing has made it a site of nostalgia of older residents; despite the government's best efforts to remove all Soviet influence in the 1960s, the admiration for Soviet culture lived on. With ballroom chandeliers and towering pillars, the restaurant covers and has a current capacity of 600 people. The restaurant underwent renovations in 2000, with its style differing from how it looked in 1954. After complaints from patrons who preferred the older look, the restaurant was renovated again in 2009 to restore the Moscow Restaurant to its original style. Rarely changing its menu, the Moscow Restaurant still serves typical Russian fare as well as dishes common in Western fine dining, such as borscht, beef solyanka, cream of mushroom soup, chicken Kiev, and kvass. Cultural legacy The Moscow Restaurant was not only host to many prominent figures such as Mao Zedong and Zhu De, but has also figured in many Chinese literary works. Depictions and memories of the Moscow Restaurant are typically split between those who associate it with the revolutionary spirit of the 1950s versus those who more remember it as a nostalgic enjoyment. Notable media which references the Moscow Restaurant include: In the Heat of the Sun, 1994 film directed by Jiang Wen The Place Where Dreams Start, 1999 TV series directed by Ye Jing Playing for Thrills, 1989 novel by author Wang Shuo The Singing was like Radiant Spring, 2000 memoir by former Minister of Culture Wang Meng Romantic Life, 2004 novel by author Du Liang See also Pekin (hotel) - Soviet-era hotel and Chinese restaurant built in Moscow as the Moscow Restaurant's counterpart Shanghai Exhibition Centre - Soviet exhibition center built in Shanghai at the same time Ten Great Buildings - Beijing buildings representative of post-split Sino-Soviet architecture KFC in China - History of the first Western fast food restaurant in China after liberalization References Restaurants in Beijing Soviet cuisine Russian cuisine
nation's capital, Moscow Restaurant holds a nostalgic position in Beijing. Still operating to this day, the restaurant is affectionately nicknamed "Old Moscow" (Chinese: 老莫, Pinyin: lǎo mò). History Having lasted through the "honeymoon" period of Sino-Soviet relations, the Sino-Soviet split, and the eventual fall of the Soviet Union, the Moscow Restaurant is a historical testament to the changes in China–Soviet Union relations. Founding and popularity Like the rest of the Beijing Exhibition Center complex, the Moscow Restaurant was designed by Soviet architects. Originally named the Soviet Exhibition Center, the project was intended to showcase the modernity of Stalinist architecture and let Chinese citizens learn more about life and culture in the Soviet Union. As one of the "Sino-Soviet friendship buildings", it was part of an attempt to modernize China by modelling the nation after the Soviet Union. In the 1950s, the restaurant first served Soviet visitors such as ambassadors, advisors, and scientists, as well as Chinese students that had returned from studying in the Soviet Union. During the Moscow Restaurant's grand opening, then-Premiere Zhou Enlai invited Khrushchev's delegation to dine there at a state banquet. Beyond serving the USSR embassy and other Soviet expats, for the Chinese, only politicians and celebrities had access to the meal tickets required to get in. After the restaurant opened to the general public and started accepting cash, the high prices made the opportunity to dine at the Moscow Restaurant a rare and prized event. With the Chinese government portraying the Soviet Union as a prosperous utopia that China would soon achieve as well, the Moscow Restaurant became a status symbol of modernity. Despite many being unaccustomed to Russian cuisine, young people saved up so that they could go to the restaurant. Representative of the admiration held for the Soviet Union at the time, one man saved

Occasionally, more powerful enemies will appear that, when defeated, drop a chest that can contain one, three or five random upgrades. Fully levelled weapons can be merged or upgraded into a far more powerful form if the right conditions are met. While the game starts off with only a few enemies, later on there can be hundreds of enemies on the screen at once. Each round lasts around 30 minutes; the moment the player hits the 30-minute mark the field gets wiped and a reaper appears who does a tremendous amount of damage.

in completing the task. Religious Various rituals are held in the dap-ay. The most notable being the Begnas (rice thanksgiving rituals of the Kankanaey). War The severed heads of defeated warriors from other communities are usually mounted on poles ( in Kankanaey) in the dap-ay. Dormitories The dap-ay also includes attached huts ( in Kankanaey) which are used as dormitories for unmarried boys and old men. These buildings were also utilized as a place for storing weapons, a barracks for training warriors, and a school for teaching the laws, histories, and traditions of the village. The equivalent communal dormitory for unmarried girls is known as the ebgan (Kankanaey) or olog (Bontoc). Unlike the dap-ay, the ebgan did not host rituals or meetings, but served as a place for girls to learn various skills. It also served as the place for courtship. Children were expected to sleep in these dormitories as soon as they stopped requiring parental support for feeding, locomotion, or bodily functions (usually at the age of seven or eight, ten in modern times). It is also during this transition that children begin wearing clothing (the bahag and alampay) for modesty. They still return to their parents' house to eat and assist with the chores during daytime.

couples will usually join the dap-ay of their parents. The dap-ay in a given village usually take turns each year performing specialized functions for the village as a whole, which can range from religious sacrifices to planting fields, repairing irrigation ditches and paddy field walls, or maintaining trails. Members of the dap-ay are expected to equally share the expenses and labor requirements of these activities. Dap-ay is also utilized by its members for arranging a mutual exchange of labor (called dang-as), for work that can not be done alone (like repairing the dikes in their rice terraces). The member requesting the service will usually offer an animal sacrifice (like a certain number of chickens) in exchange, which are used in the preparation rituals and eaten by the participants afterwards. Once arranged through the elders, all of the adult members of the dap-ay will devote one or two days in completing the task. Religious Various rituals are held in the dap-ay. The most notable being the Begnas (rice thanksgiving rituals of the Kankanaey).

living conditions of animals used in experiments are usually inhumane, and that the current "3R" system in place has been insufficient in preventing unnecessary cruelty. The ban was proposed by the Tierversuchsverbots-Initiative Initiativkomitee, which consists of Dr. Renato Werndli, trained biologist Irene Varga, environmental physicist Simon Kälin-Werth, naturopath Luzia Osterwalder, as well as Andreas Graf, Susi Kreis, and Cristina Clemente. The proposal was supported by over 80 organizations, including CIVIS-Schweitz and other animal welfare groups, as well as doctors, scientists, and local businesses. The Federal Council opposed the initiative, claiming that existing regulations were restrictive enough to prevent cruelty, and that a ban on animal experiments would disadvantage Switzerland by preventing the development of new medical therapies and endangering jobs. The Swiss National Science Foundation, swissuniversities, and the Swiss Academy of Medical Science expressed opposition to the referendum, arguing that it would "have extreme and damaging consequences for research, healthcare treatment, competitiveness and...innovation potential". All eleven major parties opposed the move, with opinion polls suggesting 80% of the electorate were opposed. Yes to protecting children and young adults from tobacco advertising The initiative (Ja zum Schutz der Kinder und Jugendlichen vor Tabakwerbung) proposed banning advertising tobacco products, including e-cigarettes, on platforms accessible to children, including print newspapers, magazines, public posters, the internet, in cinemas, kiosks or public events. Ads directed at adults and located in places that minors cannot access would still be permitted. The Federal Council and Parliament opposed this measure as over-broad and economically restrictive, and countered the initiative with the new Tobacco Products Act (Tabakproduktegesetz), which banned advertising tobacco products and e-cigarettes on billboards and in cinemas, and forbids tobacco companies from giving away free cigarettes or sponsoring international events in Switzerland. The Tobacco Products Act may be enacted regardless of the outcome of the vote on the popular initiative. The political parties in support included the Green Liberal Party, the Evangelical People's Party, the Federal Democratic Union, Green Party, and the Social Democratic Party. The Centre (Die Mitte) opposed the initiative, though The Center-Women (Die Mitte-Frauen) and 9 cantonal Die Mitte sections support it.

February referendums Four referendums were held on 13 February, including two popular initiatives; "Yes to the ban on animal and human experiments", and "Yes to protecting children and young adults from tobacco advertising". The other two were on the Amendment of the Federal Act on Stamp Duties and Federal Act on a Package of Measures to Benefit the Media. Yes to the ban on animal and human experiments The popular initiative (Ja zum Tier und Menschenversuchsverbot) proposed prohibiting experiments on living creatures, including both humans and animals. The initiative also proposed banning the import of products developed abroad using animal testing, and required non-animal research receive at least the same level of government support as animal-based research. Proponents argued that animal testing is unnecessary, unethical, and scientifically unreliable, that the living conditions of animals used in experiments are usually inhumane, and that the current "3R" system in place has been insufficient in preventing unnecessary cruelty.
