# Ozark Wildcat

Ozark Wildcat was a wooden roller coaster at the now-defunct Celebration City amusement park in Branson, Missouri. Manufactured by Great Coasters International, it opened to the public on May 1, 2003. After only six seasons, it permanently closed on October 25, 2008, along with the rest of the park. In October 2015, Herschend Family Entertainment announced that it would be removed. It was demolished on December 15, 2015, and its trains were sent to Dollywood for the Thunderhead GCI roller coaster.

## Rider Experience

Once riders were carried out of the station, they entered a slow helix turn and the train went up into the chain lift. After the lift, a short dip was followed by a steep helix turn-drop. Many bunny-hops provided plenty of "air-time" while the padded seats of the coaster still provided a smooth ride. A large, fast, helix and a sudden drop proclaimed the final act before the train rolled into the train shack, turned 90 degrees to the right, and entered the loading station. The safety restraints automatically released, and after detaching precautionary seat belts, riders were free to exit the ride.

# Sporting d'Hiver

The Sporting d'Hiver was a historic building in Monaco. It was built in 1932 and demolished in 2015. Designed in the Beaux Arts architectural style, it was "once used to host glamorous parties and exhibitions for the world's high society".

## History

The building was completed in 1932. It was designed in the Beaux Arts architectural style. The building was "once used to host glamorous parties and exhibitions for the world's high society". By 1974, most society events had moved to the newly built Monte-Carlo Sporting in the Larvotto district. In recent years, the Sporting d'Hiver was home to a cinema, SBM offices, and stores.
In 2008, Albert II, Prince of Monaco authorized the Société des bains de mer de Monaco (SBM) to demolish it and erect postmodern buildings instead. Many Monegasque subjects and residents objected to the demolition, including Laurent Nouvion, who serves as the president of the National Council. The building came down in June 2015.
A new building, designed in the postmodern architectural style by Richard Rogers, is in the works.
# Gal Oya

The Gal Oya is a 108 km (67 mi) long river, in southeast Sri Lanka. It is the 16th longest river in Sri Lanka. It begins in the hills east of Badulla and flows northeast, emptying into the Indian Ocean south of Kalmunai.
The river was dammed in 1948 as part of the Gal Oya scheme. The dam created the Senanayake Samudra — the largest reservoir in Sri Lanka, at Bintenne. Resettlement of the Tamils and Sinhalese people displaced in this scheme gave rise to among the first ethnic riots in Sri Lanka.
The Gal Oya project resulted in the formation of the 100,000 acre Gal Oya basin. This basin has since been used for cultivating paddy, chillies, sugarcane and potatoes. The Gal Oya National Park in the vicinity has a wide variety of wildlife including bears, leopards and elephants.
# U-Prove

U-Prove is a free and open-source technology and accompanying software development kit for user-centric identity management. The underlying cryptographic protocols were designed by Dr. Stefan Brands and further developed by Credentica and, subsequently, Microsoft. The technology was developed to allow internet users to disclose only the minimum amount of personal data when making electronic transactions as a way to reduce the likelihood of privacy violations.

## Overview

U-Prove enables application developers to reconcile seemingly conflicting security and privacy objectives (including anonymity), and allows for digital identity claims to be efficiently tied to the use of tamper-resistant devices such as smart cards. Application areas of particular interest include cross-domain enterprise identity and access management, e-government SSO and data sharing, electronic health records, anonymous electronic voting, policy-based digital rights management, social networking data portability, and electronic payments.
In 2008, Microsoft committed to opening up the U-Prove technology. As the first step, in March 2010 the company released a cryptographic specification and open-source API implementation code for part of the U-Prove technology as a Community Technology Preview under Microsoft's Open Specification Promise. Since then, several extensions have been released under the same terms and the technology has been tested in real-life applications.
In 2010, the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP) honored U-Prove with the 2010 Privacy Innovation Award for Technology.
Microsoft also won the in European Identity Award in the Best Innovation category for U-Prove at the European Identity Conference 2010.
The U-Prove Crypto SDK for C# is licensed under Apache License 2.0 and the source code is available on GitHub.
Microsoft also provides a JavaScript SDK that implements the client-side of the U-Prove Cryptographic Specification.
# HMS Swordfish (1895)

HMS Swordfish was one of two Swordfish-class destroyers which served with the Royal Navy. She was launched on 27 February 1895 by Armstrong Mitchell and Co at Elswick and sold off in 1910.

## Construction

HMS Swordfish was ordered on 8 December 1893, the first of two "Twenty-Seven Knotter" destroyers ordered from Armstrong Mitchell and Co as part of the 1893–1894 construction programme for the Royal Navy, with in total, 36 destroyers being ordered from various shipbuilders for this programme.
Swordfish was laid down at Armstrong's, Elswick, Newcastle-on-Tyne shipyard on 4 June 1894. Construction was delayed by industrial action and was not launched until 27 February 1895. Sea trials began in March, but excessive vibration caused one of the ship's propeller shafts to be bent. A further attempt at trials in July suffered the same problem, and re-balancing of the ship's machinery was required to resolve the vibration problems. When trials were again attempted, fouling of the ship's hull resulted in the contract speed of 27 knots not being reached, although, eventually, Swordfish managed to reach an average speed of 27.117 kn (31.206 mph; 50.221 km/h) during her official three-hour trial, when her engines generated 4,750 ihp (3,540 kW). Swordfish was not finally accepted until December 1896, 21 months after the contracted date of 31 March 1895.
The two Armstrong-built Twenty-seven knotters were not popular in service, with Armstrongs not being invited to tender for the Thirty-knot destroyers required in the next few shipbuilding programmes.

## Operational history

Swordfish was commissioned on 7 March 1900 as tender to HMS Wildfire, flagship at Sheerness. She was based at Chatham in 1901, while also serving at Sheerness and Portsmouth. In April 1902 she had finished a refit at Sheerness, and the following month she was commissioned at Chatham by Lieutenant Julian Walter Elmslie Townsend and the crew of the destroyer Avon, taking that ship's place in the Medway Instructional Flotilla. She took part in the fleet review held at Spithead on 16 August 1902 for the coronation of King Edward VII, and was back with the flotilla later the same month.
While most of the 27-knotters mounted their full armament of 1 × 12 pounder (76 mm) gun, 5 × 6-pounder guns and two 18-in torpedo tubes, Swordfish, owing to concerns about stability, tended to only carry a single torpedo tube. By 1905, it was stated by the Rear Admiral (Destroyers), that Swordfish was one of a number of destroyers that were "..all worn out" and that "every shilling spent on these old 27-knotters is a waste of money". The ship's speed dropped during service, with maximum speed falling to 18+1⁄2 knots (21.3 mph; 34.3 km/h) by 1909.
Swordfish was sold for scrap to John Cashmore Ltd of Newport, Wales on 11 October 1910 for £1510.
# Minaret of Anah

The Minaret of Anah (Arabic: مئذنة عانة) or just Manaret al-Anah is a historic free-standing minaret in Anah, Iraq. It was built during the late Abbasid period by a ruler of the Uqaylid dynasty. The minaret has been destroyed twice in the modern era, but it has since been rebuilt.

## History

The minaret was built by one of the Uqaylid rulers. Experts have dated the construction of the minaret to between 996 CE to 1096 CE, with evidence from inscriptions and archeological features.
In the mid-80s, the late president Saddam Hussein inaugurated several dams in the Euphrates river in order to secure the stable supply of water, affecting the region where the tower was located and resulted in the potential danger of the tower submerging into the water. A team of Iraqi archeological experts were able to figure out a plan to dismantle the minaret into at least 28 pieces, and put it back together at a nearby, less dangerous site.

## Architecture

The minaret reaches the height of approximately 28 metres (92 ft) and consists of eight levels. On the northern side of the base of the minaret, one can access the minaret's interior through the opening entrance, and a staircase leads to a balcony. The octagonal spire below the small dome topping the minaret has a total of 64 niches. The minaret slightly leans on one end, but the tilt is not very prominent.

## Destruction of the minaret

The Minaret of Anah has been destroyed twice, in 2006 and in 2016.

### 2006 destruction

The minaret suffered vandalism attacks in 2006. It was then blown up completely by a still-unknown perpetrator. The explosion was considered among a series of events which targeted Iraqi cultural heritage sites, including the statue of Abu Ja’afar al-Mansur in Baghdad. The Iraqi Accord Front accused Shiite militias for deliberately destroying the cultural heritages built during the Sunni dynasties including the statue of al-Mansur and the top of the Great Mosque of Samarra's historic Malwiya Minaret. Fortunately, the minaret was rebuilt in 2013, by the work of Iraqi engineers, artists and heritage conservation based on the preserved architectural blueprint from the Iraqi Ministry of Tourism.

### 2016 destruction

The minaret of Anah was destroyed in late 2016 by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant as part of an attempt to destroy cultural heritage in Iraq.

## Reconstruction

The minaret was eventually reconstructed in 2022, with efforts from Iraq's Ministry of Culture. Several fragments from the ruined minaret were also sampled. On the first of January 2023, further improvements and rehabilitation efforts were announced such as extending electrical supply to the area and rebuilding the guardhouse.
# University of Mississippi Power House

The University of Mississippi Power House was located on the campus of the University of Mississippi in Oxford, Mississippi. The original building was constructed in 1908 as a central power plant for the entire campus.
Author William Faulkner was employed by the University of Mississippi in the Power House through the winter of 1929 as a night supervisor. At that time, the plant would supply power during the night for both the University of Mississippi and the town of Oxford, Mississippi. The low power demand during the evening and the redundancy of the supervisory position offered Faulkner time to write, which he did using the back of a wheelbarrow. The resulting work was published in 1930 as As I Lay Dying.
The University of Mississippi Power House was demolished by the University in the spring of 2016. The University of Mississippi plans to construct a commemorative space near the same location using a $5 million donation from the Gertrude C. Ford Foundation.

# La Bayou

La Bayou was a casino located on the Fremont Street Experience in Downtown Las Vegas, Nevada.
The casino had 3,200 square feet (300 m$^2$) of gaming space with 125 slot machines. By the time of its closing, La Bayou was one of the few casinos in Las Vegas where slot machines paid out in coins, rather than vouchers.

## History
### Northern Club: 1920-43

The business opened in 1913 as the Las Vegas Coffee House.
In 1920 Mayme Stocker renamed it the Northern Club, offering liquor and gambling when both were illegal, during the Prohibition era. "Northern" was a well-known code word among railroad workers for an establishment serving alcohol.
On March 20, 1931, the Northern Club received the first Nevada gaming license. This was also the first gaming license issued to a woman, Mayme Stocker.
By 1941, Bugsy Siegel and Dave Stearns were operating the club.

### Turf Club, Monte Carlo Club, 1940s-1960s

In 1943, Turf Club replaced Northern Club. It ran only until 1945 when Wilbur Clark leased the club, renaming it the Monte Carlo Club. The Stockers continued to run the Northern Hotel on the second floor until 1949. Monte Carlo Club would close in 1956, but remain in business as a bar until the 1960s. The original building was razed after 1965. A new building was erected, where a Denny's diner opened c. 1967–1968, followed by Sam's Roast Beef c. 1968–1969.

### Coin Castle: 1970-99

By 1970, the site was operating as the Coin Castle. Herb Pastor was approved to take over the Coin Castle and the nearby Golden Goose casino in 1977. Pastor would later also own the nearby Sassy Sally's casino and the Girls of Glitter Gulch strip club.

### La Bayou: 1999-2016

Pastor decided in 1999 to move ahead with a renovation plan to transform the Coin Castle and Sassy Sally's into La Bayou and Mermaids, respectively, for a total of $6 million.
In 2006, Pastor's son, Steve Burnstine, purchased the two casinos and the strip club.

### Closing: 2016

In April 2016, Derek and Greg Stevens, owners of the neighboring Golden Gate and Las Vegas Club casinos, purchased the three properties, and announced that the businesses would close on June 27. It was razed soon after. The Golden Gate's expansion into the former space opened at noon on August 25, 2017.
# Mermaids Casino

Mermaids Casino was a casino located on the Fremont Street Experience in Downtown Las Vegas, Nevada.
The casino's only gaming options were slot and video poker machines.

## History
### Silver Palace (1956-64)

When the Silver Palace casino opened in the summer of 1956, it was the first two-level club in Las Vegas, and the escalator, connecting the casino with the lower-level restaurant, was the first in Southern Nevada.

### Various name changes (1964-1999)

The Silver Palace gave way to Carousel Casino in July 1964, followed by Gambler's Hall of Fame Casino in 1974. In 1976 the property became Sundance West, followed by Sassy Sally's in 1980.

### Mermaids Casino (1999-2016)

In 1999, owner Herb Pastor decided to move ahead with a renovation plan to transform it into Mermaids, and renovate his nearby Coin Castle casino into La Bayou, for a total of $6 million.
In 2006, Pastor sold the two casinos and his neighboring strip club to his son, Steve Burnstine.

### Closing (2016)

In April 2016, Derek and Greg Stevens, owners of the neighboring Golden Gate, the D, and Las Vegas Club casinos, purchased the four properties (Mermaids Casino, La Bayou Casino, Glitter Gulch Gentleman's Club plus the corporate office located at 111 N. 1st Street) and announced that the businesses would close on June 27. It was demolished over the course of 2017 along with the Las Vegas Club and the Glitter Gulch strip club to make way for the Circa Resort & Casino, which opened in December 2020.
# Gande (river)

The Gande is a river of Lower Saxony, Germany. It is a right-hand tributary of the River Leine.

## Course

The Gande rises near the town of Lamspringe on the eastern side of the Sackwald in the county of Hildesheim and flows from there southwards between the Sackwald and the Heber ridges. It enters the district of Northeim near Altgandersheim [de; nl] (a subdivision of Bad Gandersheim). At Bad Gandersheim it turns west and empties into the Leine at Kreiensen.
# Frank E. Ratts Generating Station

Frank E. Ratts Generating Station was Indiana’s first electric cooperative power plant, located on the White River near Petersburg in Pike County, Indiana. It was 1 mile (1.6 km) downstream from the larger coal-fired Petersburg Generating Station. Ratts Generating Station was rated to produce 250 MW of electricity with two turbine generators that began commercial operation in 1970. It was owned by Hoosier Energy.
Rising eight stories above the ground, the Ratts Station stood on a foundation that was an acre of concrete 4 feet (1.2 m) thick, extending to a depth of 6 feet (1.8 m) beneath the turbine generators and boilers. In addition to two concrete stacks, each 300 feet (91 m) high, the generating station was equipped with environmental controls and monitors; these included updated precipitators for the removal of fly ash to protect the air quality.
Most of the fuel for the facility was mined within a radius of 20 miles (32 km).
On December 29, 2014 Unit 2 of Frank E. Ratts facilities was shut down per consent decree.

## Legal Settlement

In July 2010 an agreement was reached between the EPA and Hoosier Energy to reduce emissions that are regulated under the Clean Air Act. The agreement covers a civil penalty and a commitment to upgrade the air pollution at two power plants in Indiana, Merom Generating Station, and Frank E. Ratts Generating Station.
Per consent decree the Frank E. Ratts station was closed and idled/shut down completely. It was torn down during late 2016 and early 2017 and the site has been graded and seeded.

# Thomas Frederick Cooper (watchmaker)

Thomas Frederick Cooper (1789 – 9 March 1863) was a well-known Victorian English watchmaker in London who made high quality timepieces, particularly for the American market.

## Biography

Cooper was active for over forty years from about 1819 at several addresses in London:
1819–1822/3 at 16 Wynwatt Street, Northampton Square, Clerkenwell
1826–1832 at 5 President Street, St Luke's
1835–1837 at 4 Duncan Place, City Road
1837–1838 at 18 King William Street, City of London
1839–1875 at 6 Calthorpe Street, Gray's Inn Road, Bloomsbury, where he advertised as a Watch Escapement and Chronometer Maker in the Trade Directories.
His obituary in the Horological Journal of 1863 noted that he was "...one of the oldest manufacturers in the trade. He was deservedly in high repute for the excellence of his productions, and his name stood at the top in America". He was also especially noted for duplex escapements.

## Family

Cooper married Ann Patience Layton in 1836 and they had nine children including:
Thomas Frederick (1842–1880), who continued his father's business. After his death it was discovered that, to cover debts incurred by unsuccessful financial speculations and without the family's knowledge or agreement, he had mortgaged much of its assets.
Charles Samuel Cooper, became a watchmaker at Camberwell
Napoleon Cooper, who became a commercial traveller
Josephine, who successfully sued an architect's clerk, Frederick Albery, for breach of promise after courting her when he had already been engaged for three years to marry another woman. When he failed to pay the £150 fine, plus costs, the Cooper family successfully bankrupted him.

## Death

Cooper died at home in Calthorpe Street on 9 March 1863, leaving an estate valued for probate at approaching £12,000, equivalent to £1,450,299 in 2023. His widow Ann Patience Cooper and unmarried daughter Anne Victoria Cooper were two of his executors. He was buried in a family grave on the west side of Highgate Cemetery.

# Engleside Hotel

Engleside Hotel was one of the most decorative and beautiful Victorian hotels that once stood on Engleside Avenue in Beach Haven (located on the southern end of Long Beach Island), New Jersey, United States. It was completed by the start of the 1876 summer season, under the leadership of Robert Engle, and it quickly became one of the most popular resorts on Long Beach Island, along with the Baldwin Hotel located nearby.
The hotel was torn down during WWII, and architectural pieces were auctioned off. The stained glass windows from the dining room were purchased by the director of Harvey Cedars Bible Conference (on the north end of the island, formerly the historic Harvey Cedars Hotel, followed by Camp Whelen), and used in their chapel for many years; eventually removed due to damage by consistent high wind.
The original location of the hotel is a block away from the current Engleside Hotel, and is now the home of a memorial park.
The new Engleside Hotel was rebuilt on the oceanfront of Engleside Avenue in Beach Haven, NJ, and is open year-round as a resort, located near the Sea Shell Resort and The Gables Hotel.
The site is also known for the Jersey Shore shark attacks of 1916. Charles Vansant was killed while staying at the Engleside at the time.
# Durbar Square

Durbar Square or royal Squares in English, is the generic name that refers to the plazas and areas opposite the old royal palaces in Nepal. The name comes from Persian دربار (Darbar). The durbar squares are full of temples, idols, open courts, water fountains and much more. Before the Unification of Nepal, Nepal consisted of smaller independent kingdoms, and Durbar Squares are some prominent remnants of those old kingdoms in Nepal. There are three Durbar Squares in the Kathmandu Valley, belonging to the three Newar kingdoms who were situated there before unification, are most famous: Kathmandu Durbar Square, Patan Durbar Square, and Bhaktapur Durbar Square. All three of these landmarks are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.These sites had received significant damage due to the devastating earthquake of 2015 but most structures still remain or were reconstructed.
