Q1073661 Glyptostrobus, is a small genus of conifers in the family Cupressaceae (formerly in the family Taxodiaceae). The sole living species, Glyptostrobus pensilis, is native to subtropical southeastern China, from Fujian west to southeast Yunnan, and also very locally in northern Vietnam and Borikhamxai Province of eastern Laos near the Vietnam border.The genus formerly had a much wider range, covering most of the Northern Hemisphere, including the high Arctic in the Paleocene and Eocene. The oldest known fossils are late Cretaceous in age, found in North America. It contributed greatly to the coal swamps of the Cenozoic era. It was reduced to its current range before and during the Pleistocene ice ages.G. pensilis is a medium-sized to large tree, reaching 30 m (98 ft) tall and with a trunk diameter of up to 1 m (3.3 ft), possibly more. The leaves are deciduous, spirally arranged but twisted at the base to lie in two horizontal ranks, 5–20 mm (0.20–0.79 in) long and 1–2 mm (0.039–0.079 in) broad, but 2–3 mm (0.079–0.118 in) long and scale-like on shoots in the upper crown. The cones are green maturing yellow-brown, pear-shaped, 2–3 cm (0.79–1.18 in) long and 1–1.5 cm (0.39–0.59 in) diameter, broadest near the apex. They open when mature to release the small, 5–20 mm (0.20–0.79 in) long, winged seeds.It typically grows in river banks, ponds and swamps, growing in water up to 60 cm (24 in) deep. Like the related genus Taxodium, it produces 'cypress knees' when growing in water, thought to help transport oxygen to the roots.The species is nearly extinct in the wild due to overcutting for its valuable decay-resistant, scented wood, but it is also fairly widely planted along the banks of rice paddies where its roots help to stabilise the banks by reducing soil erosion.

Since its establishment in 1904, FIFA, the sport's top governing body, has recognised IFAB's jurisdiction over the Laws. IFAB is known to take a highly conservative attitude regarding changes to the Laws of the Game.It is a separate body from FIFA, though FIFA is represented on the board and holds 50% of the voting power. As a legacy of association football's origins in the United Kingdom, the other organisations represented are the governing bodies of the game in the four countries of the UK. Amendments to the Laws require a three-quarter supermajority vote, meaning that FIFA's support is necessary but not sufficient for a motion to pass.

Q11692710 Miguel Ángel Builes Gómez (9 September 1888 - 29 September 1971) was a Colombian Roman Catholic prelate who served as the Bishop of Santa Rosa de Osos from 1924 until his death. He was the founder of the Xaverian Missionaries of Yarumal (1927) and the Missionaries of Saint Thérèse (1929) as well as the Contemplative Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament (1939) and the Daughters of Our Lady of Mercy (1951). Builes was a prolific writer of pastoral letters and he condemned a vast range of issues in Colombian life that he deemed to be either too liberal or in breach of traditional doctrine; among those he condemned were women wearing trousers and various dance forms. He was a staunch defender of the faith which made him a controversial figure in his diocese with those praising and condemning him for his activism; but there were those who praised his orthodox views and his defense of doctrine in the face of a wave of secularism.Despite the controversies that surrounded him the beatification cause for the late bishop opened in 1990 and he became titled as a Servant of God as the first stage in the process. Pope Francis named him as Venerable on 19 May 2018 after confirming Builes led a life of heroic virtue.
