908124 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tabular%20Islamic%20calendar | Tabular Islamic calendar | The Tabular Islamic calendar is a variation of the Islamic calendar. It has the same numbering of years and months, but the months are determined by rules rather than by observing the crescent moon directly. The tabular calendar was developed by early Muslim astronomers of the second hijra century (the 8th century of the Common Era). They wanted to be able to predict the positions of the moon, sun, and planets. It is now used by historians to convert an Islamic date into a Western calendar when no other information (like the day of the week) is available. Its calendar era is the Hijri year and its epoch (year 1) is the date of the Hijra (622 in the Common Era or Gregorian calendar).
Uses
It is used by some Muslims in everyday life, particularly in Ismaili and Shi'a communities, who believe that this calendar was developed by Ali. They believe that when Ali drew up this calendar, the previous events of the earlier prophets also fell into line with this calendar. It is their belief that all Fatimid Imams and their Da'is have followed this tradition.
Days and months
Each year has 12 months. The odd numbered months have 30 days and the even numbered months have 29 days, except in a leap year when the 12th and final month Dhu al-Hijjah has 30 days.

This animal is large for a tree frog. The adult male is 7.0 to 10.0 cm long from nose to rear end and the adult female is 9.3 to 11.4 cm long. It has thick yellow, gray, or red-brown skin on its back with a large tan or brown mark. It has strong toes with disks on them for climbing. There is a little webbing on the front feet and more webbing on the back feet. The adult male frog has vocal sacs for singing. Unlike other tree frogs, it has green bones and solid color on its sides. But it can have stripes on its legs. This frog hides during the day and looks for food at night. People have seen it high in the tree branches.
This frog lays eggs after big rainstorms. The female lays eggs on the surface of a pond. The tadpoles take 37 to 47 days to become young frogs. The tadpoles have large lungs and large gills. This is because there is not much oxygen in the warm water where they live. They eat algae.
Scientists have seen this frog glide through the air. They call this kind of gliding parachuting. The frog falls in the same direction, with its legs spread out.
This frog makes a sticky white substance in its skin. This substance has chemicals that can cause human beings' skin and eyes to hurt. One of its names "pepper tree frog," comes from the idea that it makes people sneeze, like pepper does. If a snake or other predator tries to eat the frog, it will make this white substance come out of its skin. This will hurt the predator's mouth so the frog can hop away. Because this substance does not dissolve in water, like wax does not, scientists also think it might also stop the frog from drying out and dying.

In 2013, the company facilitated a partnership between Brad Pitt and Cadillac cars for their campaign leading to a 40% increase in the company’s sales (is this in China specifically, or globally?).
Following China’s increasing demand for exclusive experiences when travelling, MGI launched Ultimate Experiences, a division where consumers could enjoy “money can’t buy luxury travel and entertainment experiences. Catering to the niche travel market, MGI combines their work with celebrities with exclusive events.
In 2015 MGI secured a collaboration between JORYA and Jessica Alba. JORYA is an innovative clothing brand made for ambitious, professional females. Jessica Alba was the perfect brand ambassador as a smart, hardworking and successful young businesswoman.
In 2016, MGI partnered Sophie Turner and Giorgio Visconti to create a limited edition product line for the Chinese market.
In 2017, MGI announced Ronaldinho x GST, a series of street football exhibition games inspired by the professional Brazilian footballer. Football is a game that unites people across different languages, background and socio-economic standing. The campaign follows China’s ambitious plans for football development, scouting for the nation’s best street football team and providing an opportunity to play alongside legends of street football.
In 2019, MGI supported the Australian production shoot of the Chinese reality TV show Viva La Romance in Western Australia. Featuring Zhang Zhiyi, It is one of China’s biggest reality TV shows and is watched by over 130 million people weekly. The series is expected to introduce Chinese viewers to the beauty of Western Australia and lead to increased tourism. It’s appeal to “young, urban, educated women who make up China’s highest spend and earning demographic provides incredible opportunity for Australia that is unparalleled in gaining instant exposure,” MGI’s founding partner Michael MacRitchie states.
In 2019, the company launched ‘Taste of Australia and New Zealand’, seeking to advertise and promote these two countries through Chinese celebrities and influencers.
In 2020 responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, MGI launched the #Cook2Connect campaign in collaboration with OzHarvest to help raise funds for Australians experiencing food insecurity.
Additionally, MGI successfully launched Australian beauty brand Alpha-H in China. Alpha-H is a global leader in corrective and preventive skincare who collaborated with Chinese designer Masha Ma to advertise the launch of its Liquid Gold essence in China. MGI co-ordinated the launch with Shanghai’s Fashion Week where 20 ‘Alpha’ women and key opinion leaders were selected to wear Ma’s exclusive jewellery design that included Vogue China editor Angelica Cheung, former Elle editor Leaf Greener, celebrity Zhu Zhu and fashion key opinion leader Qian Qian Wu.
In 2021, MGI worked with Australian fashion brand Camilla and the top 20 Chinese influencers in Australia to advertise the Runway Royal collection. Hosted at Crown Sydney, Camilla Franks founder and creative director welcomed the VIP guests in Mandarin.
Continuing their work in 2020 regarding food insecurity during the pandemic, MGI rebranded #Cook2Connect to Share a Plate with a Mate to support various social causes. Partnering with celebrity chefs like Manu and Clarissa Feildel, Jason Roberts, Tom Walton alongside social media influencers, the campaign is raising awareness about impacts of food insecurity during COVID-19 and raising awareness about mental health. Additionally brands like Perfection Fresh, D’Orsogna, Kenwood, TEFAL, Nature Nate’s Honey, NH Foods Australia and Pataks have joined as sponsors.

908207 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close%20vowel | Close vowel | A close vowel, also called a high vowel, is a type of vowel. It is used in many spoken languages. When you speaking a close vowel, your tongue is very close to the top of your mouth. It isn't touching the top, however, because if it were to touch the top of your mouth, it would be called a consonant.
"Close" is recommended by the International Phonetic Association. In America, however, they are called high vowels.
List of close vowels
In the International Phonetic Alphabet are six closed vowels:
close front unrounded vowel
close front compressed vowel
close central unrounded vowel
close central protruded vowel
close back unrounded vowel
close back protruded vowel
There also are three close vowels that don't have symbols in the IPA:
close front protruded vowel
close central compressed vowel

It is an i in the International Phonetic Alphabet. It sounds like the English word meet. It is also called a long-e in American English. In English this sound has more length then it should and is not usually pronounced as a pure vowel(it is a diphthong). A pure sound can be heard in languages such as French with words like chic.

908223 | https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/English%20phonology | English phonology | English is a language with many ways to pronounce things. Pronunciation changes both through history and from dialect to dialect. Mostly, however, English has a mostly similar phonological system throughout the world. Most dialects are different from one another because they have different types of stress in syllables. Stops, affricates, and fricatives are also changed in consonants in different dialects.
There is also lots of research done on prestige(more formal) or standard(more common). These can mean Received Pronunciation for England, General American for the United States and General Australian for Australia.
Many dialects will grow independently from other dialect which make them different from others.
Consonants
Most dialects in English use the shown 24 consonants. is a little less common. There are, of course, exceptions to all of these in accents such as Hiberno English, New York, South Asian, etc.
Consonant examples
The table below shows common examples of words in English that start with these letters.
Vowels
English has an unusually large number of vowels. In English, vowels in different dialects change a lot. These vowels can also be written differently throughout different dialects. For example, the vowel in is in Received Pronunciation but in General American.
John C. Wells made a popular lexicon set that shows the pronunciation in Received Pronunciation(RP) and General American(GA). It is shown below.
The next three tables show the vowel phonemes in Received Pronunciation, General American and General Australian.
Some of the short vowels may also be combined with ( bay, buy, boy), with ( , beau) or with ( peer, pair, poor). The vowel inventory of English RP in MacCarthy's system therefore totals only seven phonemes. Analyses such as these could also posit six vowel phonemes, if the vowel of the final syllable in comma is considered to be an unstressed allophone of that of strut. These seven vowels might be symbolized , , , , , and . Six or seven vowels is a figure that would put English much closer to the average number of vowel phonemes in other languages.
A radically different approach to the English vowel system was proposed by Chomsky and Halle. Their Sound Pattern of English proposed that English has lax and tense vowel phonemes which are operated on by a complex set of phonological rules to transform underlying phonological forms into surface phonetic representations. This generative analysis is not easily comparable with conventional analyses, but the total number of vowel phonemes proposed falls well short of the figure of 20 often claimed as the number of English vowel phonemes.

Life
Fux was born in Hirtenfeld, Austria. His birthday is not known. His parents were peasants. He probably went to the nearby city of Graz to study music. In 1680 he was accepted to the Ferdinandeum, a Jesuit college. He ran away from the Ferdinandeum before he graduated. He ran away to Ingolstadt. In 1683, he entered the Jesuit University in Ingolstadt. He was the organist at St. Moritz in Ingolstadt from 1685 to 1688.
Fux married in 1696. At this time he was the organist of the Schottenkirche in Vienna. He became the court composer for Emperor Leopold I in 1698. He composed church and chamber music. In 1700 he was sent to Rome to study composition. He might have been influenced by the music of Palestrina while studying in Rome.
Fux became the Hofkapellmeister in 1715. He was in charge of the music for the Holy Roman Emperor. He worked for Leopold I, Joseph I, and Charles VI. Fux served as Hofkapellmeister for the rest of his life. He had to write masses for churches. He also wrote operas and oratorios for special events.
Fux taught music. His students include Jan Dismas Zelenka, Gottlieb Muffat, and Georg Christoph Wagenseil. He published Gradus ad Parnassum in 1725. The name means "Steps to Parnassus" in English.
Fux died in Vienna on February 13, 1741.
Gradus ad Parnassum
Fux's book about counterpoint, Gradus ad Parnassum, is his most important work. The book was written in Latin. It was translated to German by Lorenz Christoph Mizler in 1742. The book teaches the reader how to write correct counterpoint. Many composers learned counterpoint from the book, including Mozart and Haydn. Johann Sebastian Bach owned a copy of the book.

History
At the end of the 19th century the first shelters were built: in 1899 that of the Milanese excursionist society, in 1911 the Carlo Porta shelter. In 1917 the small church designed by the architect Paolo Mezzanotte dedicated to the Sacred Heart was built.
At the beginning of the twentieth century, with the spread of mountaineering and tourism, the need arose to connect the Piani, then reachable by mule track, to the valley floor via a driveway. The first project, carried out by the engineer Naco Guzzi, dates back to 1915, but the inauguration of the Strada Consortile Ballabio - Piani Resinelli arrives on 7 October 1936. The road that was owned by a consortium made up of the four municipalities of Ballabio, Abbadia Lariana , Mandello del Lario and Lecco, remained toll until 1980.
After the construction of the road, the Plans had a tourist development with the construction of shelters, hotels, holiday homes and ski resorts. The practice of skiing at Resinelli has very ancient origins. In February 1913 the SEL (Lecco Excursionist Society) organized the first Italian championships and later a ski jump was also built, which was later dismantled.
At the end of the 1950s the first ski lifts were built; in a few years three lifts were opened: the Coltignone and Baby ski lifts and the Campo Scuola ropeway. The locality could count on an excellent attendance, as it is excellent for both beginners and more experienced skiers, who could try their hand on the slopes served by the Coltignone ski lift. In the 1980s, the progressive decline in attendance and the ever-decreasing amount of snow brought the managers of the ski resorts into economic difficulty, which were thus abandoned, today only their ruins remain. During the thirties the Moto Guzzi administrator, Angelo Parodi, built his villa right here. Today his villa belongs to a lawyer from Lecco.

The mines
The Piani Resinelli Mining Park allows visitors to visit the lead-zinc mines located at 1300 m in the formation known as the "metalliferous dolomia". They were exploited from the 16th century until the Second World War.
The Adventure Park
The adventure park is located on the path that leads to the valentino park consisting of 11 paths in the trees suitable for everyone from 2 to 99 years old. The paths allow you to walk between one tree and another in complete safety equipped with a harness and carabiners, along Tibetan bridges, log walkways and zip line ropes.
Valentino Park
In 1961, following the donation made by the Lecco family Gerosa-Crotta to the Italian Touring Club of an area of about 185 hectares extended north of Mount Coltignone, Parco Valentino was born in the Resinelli Plains, at the center of which is the naturalistic museum of the Grigne. .

It was host to the headquarters of CNN. You were able to take a tour around the center, experiencing how CNN filmed their news channel. Standard tours ran every 20 minutes from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily and cost $15 for adults; $14 for seniors, students and teens ages 13 to 18; and $12 for children ages 4 to 12. Kids 3 and younger also could get in for free. The CNN Center was a popular tourist attraction, one reason being that it held the tallest free-standing escalator in Atlanta, but it was announced on June 29, 2020, that the place was going to be sold. Today, the front of the building, hosting a large CNN sign, is a popular place for photography.
