# Future Sonics

Future Sonics is an American professional audio and consumer earphones company which designs and manufactures its own proprietary MG line of full-range miniature loudspeakers, which are used in all of its products.

## History

In-ear personal monitor systems were pioneered in the early 1980s by Marty Garcia of Future Sonics as a solution for vocal fatigue and stress on musicians' ears from excessively loud stage volumes. His first custom-fit earphones were created for Todd Rundgren in 1982. In 1985 the Ear Monitors Brand was launched. Also, in 1985, Rundgren’s Utopia Tour was the first wedge-less stage, and all members were wearing FS Ear MonitorsBrand. The Grateful Dead and The Steve Miller Band were among the early bands to tour with this form of personal monitoring.
Future Sonics Ear Monitors Brand was awarded the TEC Award for Sound Reinforcement Product of the Year in 1992. In 2002, Future Sonics was the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) of the IE3 earphones for Sennheiser USA included with its original Evolution Wireless Systems. That same year, Future Sonics’ Ears EM3, universal earphones, was nominated for a TEC Award. In 2009, Future Sonics marked its 17th year working with the band U2 on their 360° Tour providing earpieces for the band, crew and security.
Future Sonics is an advocate for Hearing health awareness issues and a supporter of H.E.A.R., a non-profit organization dedicated to preventing hearing loss, mainly from loud rock music. Future Sonics' speaker technology is recognized by H.E.A.R. a product offering a full range of sound and performance at low volumes. In 2009 Future Sonics was awarded a Certificate of Excellence from H.E.A.R. for its contributions to Hearing Education and Awareness for Rockers.
# Þáttr

The þættir (Old Norse singular þáttr, literally meaning a "strand" of rope or yarn) are short stories written mostly in Iceland during the 13th and 14th centuries.
The majority of þættir occur in two compendious manuscripts, Morkinskinna and Flateyjarbók, and within them most are found as digressions within kings' sagas. Sverrir Tómasson regards those in Morkinskinna, at least, as exempla or illustrations inseparable from the narratives that contain them, filling out the picture of the kings' qualities, good and bad, as well as adding comic relief.

# Kenya Independence Movement

The Kenya Independence Movement (KIM) was a political party in Kenya.

## History

The KIM was established in August 1959 by African members of the Legislative Council, and was led by Julius Gikonyo Kiano, Tom Mboya and Jaramogi Oginga Odinga. Primarily a Kikuyu and Luo party, its formation was a response to the establishment of the multiracial Kenya National Party, and membership was restricted to Africans. The two also differed on independence, with the KIM demanding it by 1961, whilst the KNP had settled on 1968.
However, by the end of 1959 supporters of the two merged in order to present a united front at the Lancaster House Conference. The following year the KIM's leadership established the Kenya African National Union through a merger with the Kenya African Union and the National People's Convention Party, whilst the KNP merged with other parties to form the rival Kenya African Democratic Union.

# Main Street Commercial District (Dothan, Alabama)

The Main Street Commercial District is a historic district in Dothan, Alabama, United States. The district covers 18 acres (7 ha) and portions of 6 blocks in Dothan's historic commercial district. At the time of the nomination, it contained 68 contributing properties, however many have been demolished in the intervening years.
Dothan was founded on the site of Poplar Head Springs, which was an important crossroads in the Muscogee lands. Logging was the area's first major industry, but did not develop until after the Civil War. Settlers began building saw mills and blacksmith shops, and encouraged commercial development by donating land and bricks to new settlers. The town was incorporated in 1885, and began a period of great expansion with the coming of the Alabama Midland Railway in 1889. The oldest buildings in the district date from the 1900s, including the three-story Wadlington Hotel (built 1900, demolished 2012) and the Neoclassical First National Bank (1907). Several brick warehouses were also constructed along the railroad line. A symbol of the town's rapid growth, a five-story office building was completed in 1914.
Cotton had replaced lumber as the economic engine of the region, but the boll weevil outbreak of the 1910s sent Dothan into a recession. Fewer buildings date from beyond this period, including the Malone Motor Company Building (1923) and the Kress Building (1928). The importance of the downtown core declined after the 1960s, as retail establishments relocated to outlying areas.
The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.

# Markus Büchel

Markus Büchel (German pronunciation:; 14 May 1959 – 9 July 2013) was a lawyer and politician from Liechtenstein who served as Prime Minister of Liechtenstein in 1993. Serving for just under 7 months, he is the shortest serving prime minister in Liechtenstein's history.

## Early life

Büchel attended high school in Eschen from 1972 to 1975 before completing an internship in the law firm of Alfred Bühler in Vaduz. From 1981 he studied law in the University of Bern and the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich, where he graduated in 1986.

## Prime Minister of Liechtenstein

Büchel was in office as Prime Minister of Liechtenstein from 26 May to 15 December 1993. The February 1993 Liechtenstein general election resulted in a win for the Progressive Citizens' Party and Büchel was appointed as prime minister.
Soon after taking office, Büchel was the subject of controversy over the composition of his cabinet, specifically within his own party. As prime minister, he co-signed the Constitution of the Princely House of Liechtenstein, though notably without consultation from the Landtag of Liechtenstein.
On 14 September 1993, the Landtag passed a motion of no confidence against him following a request by the Progressive Citizens' Party to do so. The following day, Hans-Adam II dismissed both the government and the Landtag. Following the October 1993 Liechtenstein general election, Büchel was succeeded by his deputy Mario Frick. Serving for just under 7 months, Büchel is the shortest-serving prime minister in Liechtenstein's history.

From 1997 Büchel worked as a lawyer. In 2002, he became Honorary Consul of Russia in Liechtenstein.
He died in on 9 July 2013 in Ruggell, aged 54 years old. Büchel was survived by his wife, Elena, and his son David.

# Maserati 8C

The Maserati 8C was a Grand Prix race car built by Maserati between 1931 and 1933. The 8C was being designed by Alfieri Maserati in the early 1930s; however, he died before its completion.
The chassis was that of the Maserati Tipo 26M, and it was initially fitted with a Tipo 26M engine with its cylinders bored out by 4 mm to arrive at its limit of 2.8 litres (2,812 cc) for 69 x 94 mm bore and stroke. Development of the new 3.0 L engine continued and it was constructed for racing in 1932. The car won the 1933 French Grand Prix and Sir Henry Birkin achieved third place driving it in the Tripoli Grand Prix. However, it was not very successful in other races. The car featured some of the world's earliest hydraulic brakes. The Tipo 8C 3000 was the final two-seater Grand Prix Maserati, and was succeeded in 1933 by the Maserati 8CM, M for monoposto (single seat).
In 2000 an original Maserati 8C 2800 sold at an auction for US$1.65 million and a 1932 Maserati 8C 3000 for $1.08 million.
