# United Coin Machine

United Coin Machine Co. was an American slot route operator based in Paradise, Nevada. It operated slot machines in locations such as bars, convenience stores, and grocery stores. For many years, United Coin was the largest slot route operator in Nevada.

## History

United Coin was founded in 1958. Bernard Shapiro, who had owned a coin machine business in Northern California, and a small stake in the Royal Nevada casino, started the company after the Royal Nevada went out of business.
Advanced Patent Technology purchased the company in 1979.
In 1980, Advanced Patent reached an agreement to sell United Coin to Bristol Silver Mines Co. for $13 million in cash and stock. Advanced Patent withdrew from the offer three months later, though, saying that United Coin was now "more desirable".
In 2000, United Coin's parent, now known as Alliance Gaming, agreed to sell the company for $112 million in cash plus $6 million in preferred stock to gaming developers Michael Luzich and Daniel Kehl. Alliance canceled the deal a year later due to increased profits at United Coin.
In 2004, Century Gaming bought United Coin for $100 million cash plus $5 million in assumed debt.
The company sold off its operations in Northern Nevada to another slot route operator in 2013, but then returned to the region in 2015, placing machines at a chain of sports bars.
In July 2014, the company dropped the United Coin name and rebranded its operations in Nevada and Montana as Century Gaming Technologies.

# No Objection Certificate

No Objection Certificate, popularly abbreviated as NOC, is a type of legal certificate issued by any agency, organisation, institute or, in certain cases, an individual. It does not object to the covenants of the certificate. The certification is a requirement at most government-based departments predominantly from the Indian subcontinent.

## Examples
### Travel purpose

All Indian nationals, who are staying / working in Nepal require a NOC before flying to any third country for the first time from Nepal. The requirement for providing the NOC by the Consular Wing of the Embassy is as under:
* The applicant should come personally to the embassy with the original passport, original Indian registration certificate, along with photocopy copies of the same;
* Copy of the ticket and valid visa;
* Two passport size photographs;
* NPR 2590/- as consular fees for issuing the NOC.
Embassy provides the NOC to only those Indians who are staying / working in Nepal and are Registered as Indian nationals with the Embassy, if they should approach the embassy one or two days prior to their departure for the third country.
# Prince Augustus Ferdinand of Prussia

Prince Augustus Ferdinand of Prussia (German: August Ferdinand; 23 May 1730 – 2 May 1813) was a Prussian prince and general, as well as Herrenmeister ("Master of the Knights") of the Bailiwick of Brandenburg of the Order of Saint John. He belonged to the House of Hohenzollern, and was the youngest son of Frederick William I of Prussia by his wife, Queen Sophia Dorothea.

## Life

He was the youngest child of King Frederick William I of Prussia and his wife Sophia Dorothea of Hanover. He was also a younger brother of King Frederick the Great (Frederick II of Prussia), Queen Louisa Ulrika of Sweden, and Wilhelmine Margravine of Brandenburg-Bayreuth.
Already at the age of 5, he joined the Infantry regiment „Kronprinz“. In 1740, his brother named him commander of Infantry regiment Nr 34. In 1756, he became Major General and accompanied his brother the King on his campaigns in Saxony, Bohemia, and Silesia. He fought in the Battle of Breslau and the Battle of Leuthen. But in 1758, bad health forced him to leave the army. In 1762, he purchased Friedrichsfelde Palace near Berlin. Ferdinand is also remembered for having the Schloss Bellevue in the Berliner Tiergarten built in 1786, today seat of the Presidents of Germany.
On 12 September 1763 Ferdinand was elected as Master of the Knights of the Bailiwick of Brandenburg of the Order of Saint John, a post he held until 1812.
Augustus died in Berlin on 2 May 1813, as the last surviving grandchild of George I of Great Britain. Elisabeth Louise would die seven years later, on 10 February 1820.

## Marriage and children

He married his niece, Margravine Elisabeth Louise of Brandenburg-Schwedt, on 27 September 1755. She was the daughter of his older sister Sophia Dorothea and Margrave Frederick William of Brandenburg-Schwedt. Despite this family tie, she was only 8 years younger than him, due to the significant age difference between him and his sister.
They had seven children:
* Princess Friederike Elisabeth Dorothea Henriette Amalie (1 November 1761 – 28 August 1773) died young aged 11.
* Prince Friedrich Heinrich Emil Karl (21 October 1769 – 8 December 1773) died in early childhood at age 4.
* Princess Friederike Louise (24 May 1770 – 7 December 1836), married to Prince Antoni Radziwiłł. Had issue.
* Prince Friedrich Christian Heinrich Ludwig (11 November 1771 – 8 October 1790) died aged 18, unmarried with no issue.
* Prince Louis Ferdinand (18 November 1772 – 10 October 1806), killed in the Battle of Saalfeld. No legitimate issue.
* Prince Friedrich Paul Heinrich August (29 November 1776 - 2 December 1776) died in infancy.
* Prince Augustus (19 September 1779 – 19 July 1843), morganatic marriage (1832-1843) to Polish aristocrat Emilie von Ostrowska.

# Smith's Fort Plantation

Smith's Fort Plantation is a house and parcel of land located in Surry County, Virginia, United States. The current main house on the property, also known as the Faulcon House, dates from 1751. It is also known as Warren House and Rolfe-Warren House, which has some claim that the house was built in the mid-1600s. The house has been an example for numerous twentieth century reproductions.

## History

The plantation received its name because it was the location of Captain John Smith's "New Fort," built in 1609, located directly across the James River from the Jamestown colony. The fort was quickly abandoned due to dry rot and a rat infestation. The same land was later given by Chief Powhatan to John Rolfe as a dowry for the hand of Pocahontas when Rolfe and Pocahontas married. Archaeological surveys of the property have revealed that a number of structures have existed on the property and the present, restored main house was built by Jacob Faulcon in 1751. The house predates Faulcon's restoration and was owned by Thomas Rolfe and a Thomas Warren, c. 1650.

## Preservation

The property and current house was acquired by Preservation Virginia (formerly known as the Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquities) in 1933 after undergoing restoration funded by John D. Rockefeller Jr. It is currently open as a museum with furnishings from the late 16th through the early 18th centuries. The property serves as a host to the annual Old Virginia Christmas-Festival of Crafts.

## Archaeological investigations

Smith wrote of this fort that it was "neere a convenient River upon high commanding hill, very hard to be assaulted an easie to be defended." The Association for the Preservation of Virginia Antiquites maintains the site now, whose location matches Smith's description. Hume suggests that it makes sense that Smith's description of the fort as a "retreat," makes this site a likely spot for trading parties to seek refuge.
Archaeological investigations over the site have been limited to the excavations of a ditch and a highly eroded rampart. Further archaeological work to determine if this site was indeed the site of Smith's fort would be necessary. Hume notes that this site does seem to be the site of Smith's fort because the construction type is very similar in nature to the types of earthworks built on Ronoake Island.
# Median trick

The median trick is a generic approach that increases the chances of a probabilistic algorithm to succeed. Apparently first used in 1986 by Jerrum et al. for approximate counting algorithms, the technique was later applied to a broad selection of classification and regression problems.
The idea of median trick is very simple: run the randomized algorithm with numeric output multiple times, and use the median of the obtained results as a final answer. For example, for sublinear in time algorithms the same algorithm can be run repeatedly (or in parallel) over random subsets of input data, and, per Chernoff inequality, the median of the results will converge to solution very fast. For the algorithms that are sublinear in space (e.g., counting the distinct elements of a stream), different randomizations of the algorithm (say, with different hash functions) should be used for repeated runs over the same data.

## Statement

Given a set of independent random variables X$_1$, …, X$_n${\textstyle X_{1}, \dots , X_{n}}, and an unknown deterministic number Y{\textstyle Y}.
Suppose that each random variable X$_i${\textstyle X_{i}} falls within [Y±ϵ]{\textstyle [Y\pm \epsilon ]} with probability ≥p{\textstyle \geq p} where p>1/2{\textstyle p>1/2} is a constant, then the median trick states that Med(X$_i$)∈[Y±ϵ]{\textstyle Med(X_{i})\in [Y\pm \epsilon ]} with probability ≥1−e$^{−2n(p−1/2)2}${\textstyle \geq 1-e^{-2n(p-1/2)^{2}}}.
In other words, in order to ensure that Y∈[Med(X$_i$)±ϵ]{\textstyle Y\in [Med(X_{i})\pm \epsilon ]} with probability ≥1−δ{\textstyle \geq 1-\delta }, it suffices to use ln⁡ 1/δ /2(p−1/2)$^2$ {\textstyle {\frac {\ln {\frac {1}{\delta }}}{2(p-1/2)^{2}}}} samples.
Let Z$_i${\textstyle Z_{i}} be the indicator variable for the event that X$_i$∈[Y±ϵ]{\textstyle X_{i}\in [Y\pm \epsilon ]}. Then, the event Med(X$_i$)∈[Y±ϵ]{\textstyle Med(X_{i})\in [Y\pm \epsilon ]} fails to occur only if at least half of Z$_i$=1{\textstyle Z_{i}=1}, that is, 1/n ∑$_i$Z$_i$≤1/2{\textstyle {\frac {1}{n}}\sum _{i}Z_{i}\leq 1/2}.
By Hoeffding's inequality, this event occurs with probability ≤e$^{−2n(p−1/2)2}${\textstyle \leq e^{-2n(p-1/2)^{2}}}.

# Apies River

The Apies River is a river that flows through the city of Pretoria, South Africa. Its source is located just south of the city (south of Erasmus Park) and it flows northward until it drains into the Pienaars River.
The word "Apies" is Afrikaans for small monkeys and is a reference to the historical abundance of vervet monkeys on the Apies River banks.
Nguni-speaking people, who became known as the Ndebele, are thought to have been the first people to recognise the suitability of the Apies River valley as a place to put down roots. The Ndebele encountered indigenous nomadic Khoisan people, which they called abaTshwa (the People who are Ignored), occupying the area. The Ndebele named the river 'Tshwane' which means 'Place of the abaTshwa'. It is also argued that they named the river after one of their chiefs "Tshwane" who is reputedly buried under the Wonderboom. It is also proposed that 'Tshwane' is a corruption of 'tshwene' which is the Sotho and Tswana word for monkey. However, the river is still recognized under its colonial name "Apies". The greater municipality of Pretoria is now known as Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality. The river is - to a large extent - canalised with little resemblance of the natural river reach of the past. The river reach between Wonderboom Poort and the Bon Accord Dam is, however, not canalised.
The Mamelodi township draws its name from the name of the river, with the full name being "Mamelodi ya Tshwane", meaning "Whistler of the Apies River", a nickname given to Paul Kruger.

# Mabel Gibson

Mabel Wennstrom Gibson (1901 – 1951) was an Australian singer and actor, best known for playing in musicals and operettas.

## History

Gibson was born in Perth, Western Australia, a daughter of builder and Perth councillor Sydney Gibson and his wife Catherine Charlotte Gibson, née Wennstrom (1879 – 2 May 1931). As a child, she studied piano under Richard Bastian, dancing under Flora Lewin and Alice Patten, and shone in juvenile pantomime. She passed the L.A.B. examinations in pianoforte, and won a Dame Nellie Melba Scholarship, to study at the Albert Street Conservatorium.
She played in several amateur theatre groups before being engaged with JC Williamson's
The Gibson family moved from the Mount Lawley suburb of Perth to the Melbourne suburb of Northcote sometime around 1925.
Her first engagements with JC Williamson's were as Clarice Hardwicke's understudy in Sybil and as one of the trio of sisters in Lilac Time. She went on to play Therese in Ma Mie Rosette, Margot Spreckles in Sybil, Natalie in The Merry Widow, Juanita in A Southern Maid, Estelle in The Street Singer, Annetta in The Lady of the Rose by Jean Gilbert and Harry Graham, Dora in Funny Face, and Vittoria in The Maid of the Mountains, all supporting roles.
In Gilbert & Sullivan, she took a variety of roles — soprano, mezzo-soprano and contralto — the last in trios with the sopranos Strella Wilson and Patti Russell. She was applauded for her Phoebe in The Yeomen of the Guard
She appeared as a hospital nurse in the film Diggers, aka Dinkum Diggers, produced at Efftee Studios by Pat Hanna.
In 1933 she left for London where, to avoid confusion with another performer of a similar name, she took the stage name "Catherine Vennstrom", echoing her mother's birthname, and in London's West End starred in Lawrence Wright's revue On With the Show at the Prince's Theatre.
She left for America, where she played Adelina von Hagen in Edward Locke's The Climax opposite Guy Bates Post at the Hollywood Playhouse, and appeared in James B. Fagan's And So To Bed at the Music Box Theatre. She auditioned for film roles, but was told she was "an inch or two too tall".
She returned to Sydney in June 1935, and landed a role in Ball at the Savoy, opening at the Theatre Royal on 6 July 1935.
She married an American, Paul Hebrick Long, at St Mark's Church, Darling Point on 29 October 1938 and moved to Ohio, where she died in 1951.
Her sister Jean Gibson, a chorine with J.C Williamson's, left for Germany in 1936.
