# Wire race bearing

A wire race bearing is a rolling-element bearing, where the balls or rollers run on races resembling loops of wire. Roller bearings may use just two races, but ball bearings typically use three or four races. Wire race bearings can be large yet lightweight and with small profile and good precision. Wire races have little intrinsic structure and must be adequately supported by the bearing housing. Balls, rollers or even cross rollers are used as rolling elements. Due to the design wire race bearings are commonly called '4-point-contact' bearings.
The first wire race bearing was invented in 1934 by Erich Franke, co-founder of Franke & Heydrich KG in Aalen, Germany (nowadays Franke GmbH). As a young design engineer of Carl-Zeiss-Werke in Jena, Franke intended to design a very space-saving bearing for an optical device. The aim of his thoughts was a much closer relation between bearing and enclosing design to keep it as compact and as lightweight as possible.

## Types

The most common type consist of two open inner and outer rings each. Types using just three rings can be used for special applications to compensate e.g. angular offset. There are types forming an converging angle ball bearing using two rows of balls set up with two race rings each. A special type for mainly radial loads can be set up with just two race rings.

## Comparison with standard ball bearings

The space-saving design is the main advantage with the capability of loads and moments from all directions at the same time. Because the rolling elements run on race rings, the enclosing design is not exposed directly to stressing of the rolling process. Thus allows to use alternate materials like aluminium, brass or plastic as housing. Another advantage is that rotational resistance and pre-load can be adjusted precisely.
Due to the specific design, wire race bearings have also system inherent disadvantages like increased assembly time, because the race rings must be inserted accurately into the enclosing design to ensure faultless function.

## Applications

Wire race bearings are used in linear bearings of micro-positioning (XY) stages commonly found on microscopes.

Michael Ullman of The Arts Fuse wrote, "Barron is celebrating his eightieth birthday with a new album... I get the feeling that Barron is what you would call a chameleonic pianist: he can sound anyway he wants. Barron's had a career of over sixty years, and he continues to enthrall." John White of Jazz Journal stated, "Barron demonstrates his continuing mastery of all jazz styles and idioms." Pierre Giroux of All About Jazz commented, "The album is a testament to jazz's boundless creativity and spirit of exploration."

# Michael Glover (Kansas politician)

Michael George Glover (born July 21, 1947) is an American former politician.
Glover was originally elected to the Kansas House of Representatives in 1972 while attending law school. He served for eight years before resigning during the 1980 legislative term.
During his time in the legislature, Glover was most well-known for spearheading a bill to lower penalties for possession of marijuana. The bill passed the state House in 1977 on a vote of 65 to 60, but was defeated in the Kansas State Senate after Glover admitted to smoking marijuana himself regularly.
After leaving the state legislature, Glover worked as an attorney and prosecutor in Lawrence, Kansas. In the mid-1980s, he moved to California, where he ran for the California State Assembly in 2006; in that election, he was defeated by incumbent Republican Chuck DeVore by a 61% to 39% margin. Glover ran another race against DeVore in 2008, but was again defeated, 58-42.
# Queue-it

Queue-it is a private Danish company founded in 2010. It has developed systems to cope with website traffic congestion by directing visitors to a queue where they can wait until access can be facilitated. The company has achieved success by managing ticket sales bottlenecks for large, popular events. Clients include Tickets.com and New York City's concert venue Carnegie Hall. The system also assists e-commerce services and public sector applications.
Founded by Niels Henrik Sodemann, Camilla Ley Valentin, and Martin Pronk, the system was initially developed in 2001 for coping with the capacity problems with Gentofte Municipality Ementor Webbooking (a web booking platform for municipalities marketed from 2001 to 2007 by Ementor). It was then expanded over the Internet using cloud computing from 2010. In 2011, the company succeeded in doubling revenue every quarter. By 2012, Queue-it was being used by the Danish tax authority Skat. Five years later, it was being used in over 30 countries, serving over 1.5 billion customers at peak periods. By July 2018, three billion users had gone through the company's queuing system and it was expected that four billion would have used it by Black Friday the following December.
In 2017, it was announced that an American branch, Queue-it Inc. was to be established in Minneapolis to serve American clients. The Danish Queue-it would nevertheless continue its operations and technical development in Copenhagen. In 2019, Queue-it announced the opening of an office in Sydney, Australia to provide its global customer base with business support across additional time zones in the Asia-Pacific Market. Statistics released by Queue-it Inc. in November 2017 indicated that 80% of retail customers were ready to wait in line to access e-commerce sites.
In 2021, Queue-it were sued by WeQ4U and Queue-Fair, which are both owned by the Orderly Mind group, for patent infringement. Queue-Fair reported, and posted evidence, that within three days of issuing a press release about the lawsuit, Queue-it removed their customer list from their web site and changed their demonstration site to remove evidence of patent-infringing processes. The case continued to be active as of December 2024.
# Mau Forest

Mau Forest is a forest complex in the Rift Valley of Kenya. It is the largest indigenous montane forest in East Africa. The Mau Forest complex has an area of 273,300 hectares (675,000 acres).
The forest area has some of the highest rainfall rates in Kenya. Mau Forest is the largest drainage basin in Kenya. Numerous rivers originate from the forest, including the Southern Ewaso Ng'iro, Sondu River, Mara River and Njoro River. These rivers feed Lake Victoria, Lake Nakuru and Lake Natron. The western slopes of the Mau Escarpment are covered by the Mau Forest.

## Ecology

Typical tree species in the Mau Forest include Aningeria adolfi-friederici, Strombosia scheffleri, and Polyscias kikuyuensis. Olea capensis, Prunus africana, Albizia gummifera, and Podocarpus milanjianus are also found there.
Endemic bird species in the area include Hartlaub's turaco (Tauraco hartlaubi), Hunter's cisticola (Cisticola hunteri) and Jackson's spurfowl (Pternistis jacksoni).

## Destruction

The forest has been traditionally inhabited by Ogiek people, whose hunter-gatherer lifestyle is sustainable. However, due to immigration from other ethnic groups, large parts of the forest area have been cleared for settlement. Human activities, especially logging, have led to deforestation of more than a quarter of the area since 1973. This is due to the increased charcoal trade in places like Narok town and the supply of logs to saw mills in Baringo, Nakuru and Narok counties.
In 2008, the inauguration of the Sondu-Miriu hydro power plant was postponed due to low water levels, that are said to be resulting from the destruction of the Mau Forest.

## Mau Forest evictions

In the summer of 2008 there was a political row over resettlement of people, who had been allocated land there during the KANU era during the 1980s and 1990s. Some of the settlers are famed politicians, like Franklin Bett and Zakayo Cheruiyot. In 2004 Paul Ndung’u released "Ndungu Report", which listed these land allocations, terming them illegal and recommended revocation of them. Some evictions were implemented between 2004 and 2006, without a resettlement scheme.
On July 15, 2008, the then Prime Minister, Raila Odinga issued an order that the evictions be implemented by October 2008 in order to protect the forest from destruction. The order has been opposed by number of Rift Valley area politicians, led by Isaac Ruto. Some politicians, led by Minister of Agriculture William Ruto, propose that if evictions are implemented, the government should allocate them land elsewhere.
The evictions began in November 2009. Some prominent people are set to lose their land, including family members of former president Daniel arap Moi. Also under threat is the Kiptagich Tea Factory owned by former president Moi.

# William Wirt Virgin

William Wirt Virgin (September 18, 1823 – January 23, 1893) was an American politician and jurist from Maine.

## Early life and education

Virgin was born in 1823 in Rumford, Maine and graduated from Bowdoin College in 1844. He was admitted to the Maine bar in 1847 and moved to Norway, Maine, where practiced law until 1871.

## Career

During the American Civil War, Virgin raised the 23rd Maine Volunteer Infantry Regiment, which consisted of five companies from Oxford County and Androscoggin Counties. The regiment performed guard and security duties in and around Washington D.C.
Virgin, a Republican, served two one-year terms in the Maine Senate (1865, 1866). In his 2nd and final term, Virgin served as the Senate President. In 1872, Virgin was appointed to the Maine Supreme Judicial Court as an associate justice. He served in that position until his death on January 23, 1893.
# Al-Muntada al-Adabi

Al-Muntada al-Adabi (Arabic: المنتدى الأدبي, The Literary Club), was an Arab organisation set up in 1905 to promote Arabic culture in the Ottoman Empire. While formally non-political, the organisation acted as an incubator for the growing Arab nationalist movement.

## Foundation

The organization was founded in 1905 mainly by Abdul Karim al-Khalil, a Shiite from Chyah (present-day Lebanon) who acted as the head of the organisation. Initially, since it had no political agenda it was accepted by the CUP authorities. It was an immediate success, swiftly reaching a membership of several thousand, mostly students, with branches in Syria and Iraq.

## History

The 1908 Committee of Union and Progress, Young Turk, revolution promised to implement political reforms and the establishment of a constitutional government across the Ottoman Empire. The revolution was greeted with approval across the Arab world amongst those who hoped for more recognition of the Arabic language and Arabic culture. In practice the new regime sought to increase central control from Constantinople and to impose Ottoman Turkish as the language of government across the empire.
Following the outbreak of the First World War the organisation came under suspicion of involvement in anti-Ottoman activities. In 1915, al-Khalil and three other members of the Beirut branch were hanged for treason, a day commemorated in Lebanon and Syria as Martyrs' Day.
# Václav Láska (politician)

Václav Láska (born 4 August 1974) is a Czech politician and head of the Senator 21 party, which he founded in 2017. He was elected to the Czech Senate during the 2020 election. Láska ran as independent with the support of Czech Pirate Party. Besides his political career he is a barrister, former police investigator and chairman of the board of Transparency International.

## Biography

Láska was born on 4 August 1974 in Rakovník. He worked in the ranks of the Police of the Czech Republic from the age of 18. He started as a rank-and-file police officer in the district department, later worked as an assistant investigator and then an investigator at the Regional Investigation Office, specializing in economic crime. In 1999, he joined the Office of Financial Crime and State Protection (ÚFKOS), where he led investigations related to IPB and the Harvard funds.
After the demise of ÚFKOS in 2003, he left the ranks of the police, briefly worked in the field of economic consulting, and in 2007 he also worked for a few months at the ABL security agency. While employed, he studied social pathology at the University of Pedagogy in Hradec Králové in 1996–1999, and law at the Law Faculty of the University of West Bohemia in Plzeň in 1999–2004.
From 2002 he worked at Transparency International, until 2011 he was the chairman of the board of directors. He has been practicing law since 2004. In July 2007, Minister of the Interior Ivan Langer rejected Láska's request for a waiver of confidentiality, the approval of which would have allowed him to testify in the USA in the case of Viktor Kožený. According to spokeswoman Alena Vokráčková, the reason was "the difference in the legal systems of both countries". He has been running his own law firm since 2010. He lectures on legal and security issues for private companies and teaches at the Czech Technical University in Prague CTU. In 2011, he analyzed the Promopro case, filed a criminal complaint in the case, which led to the initiation of criminal prosecution of high-ranking state officials.
