Your Queen Is a Reptile is the third album by British jazz group Sons of Kemet, released in March 2018 on Impulse! Records. Band leader Shabaka Hutchings wrote and plays saxophone on all tracks, Theon Cross plays tuba, and Seb Rochford and Tom Skinner play drums. It also features toaster Congo Natty and performance poet Josh Idehen.
The album title refers to the British monarchy and the Reptilian conspiracy theory, with the sleeve notes depicting the monarchy as not representing black immigrants: "Your Queen is not our Queen / She does not see us as human". The woman to whom the first track refers, Ada Eastman, was Hutchings's great grandmother from Barbados, while the others refer to influential black women throughout history.
Your Queen Is a Reptile was nominated for the 2018 Mercury Prize. The album topped The Wire magazine's annual critics' poll and was named release of the year. This is the band's longest album, at 55 minutes and 34 seconds.

# Scott W. Skavdahl

Scott Wesley Skavdahl (born December 17, 1966) is the chief United States district judge of the United States District Court for the District of Wyoming.

## Biography

Born in Lincoln, Nebraska, graduating high school at Sioux County High School, Skavdahl received his Bachelor of Science degree in 1989 from the University of Wyoming. He received his Juris Doctor in 1992 from the University of Wyoming College of Law. At the University of Wyoming, Skavdahl was an active member of the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity. Skavdahl worked as a litigation associate at Brown & Drew (now Brown, Drew & Massey) from 1992 to 1994. From 1994 to 1997, Skavdahl served as a judicial law clerk to Chief Judge William F. Downes of the United States District Court for the District of Wyoming. From 1997 to 2003, Skavdahl worked at the law firm of Williams, Porter, Day & Neville. From 2001 to 2003 he worked as a part-time United States magistrate judge. In 2003, Skavdahl became a judge on the Seventh Judicial District Court, in Casper, Wyoming upon appointment by Governor Dave Freudenthal. On January 31, 2011 Skavdahl left the state bench to once more become a full-time United States magistrate judge.

### Federal judicial service

In November 2010, Governor Dave Freudenthal recommended Skavdahl to fill the Wyoming vacancy that was to be created when Judge William F. Downes retired on July 24, 2011. On February 16, 2011, President Barack Obama formally nominated Skavdahl. On September 8, 2011, the Senate Judiciary Committee reported his nomination to the Senate floor by a voice vote. On November 3, 2011, the Senate confirmed him by a 96–0 vote. He received his commission on November 7, 2011. He became chief judge on June 1, 2018 succeeding Nancy D. Freudenthal.

### Notable case

In a June 21, 2016, decision, Skavdahl held that Congress did not authorize the Bureau of Land Management to regulate hydraulic fracturing. The BLM's "Oil and Gas; Hydraulic Fracturing on Federal and Indian Lands; Final Rule" (43 CFR Part 3160) sought to set standards for wellbore construction, chemical disclosure, and water management for hydraulic fracturing on federal and tribal lands. He rejected the BLM's reliance on longstanding land management statutes as authorizing the rule. Instead, he looked to the statute that regulated hydraulic fracturing in its 2005 Energy Policy Act. There, Congress deprived the Environmental Protection Agency from regulating hydraulic fracturing under the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) except when diesel fuels are used. The court reasoned that Congress had not indirectly conferred far broader authority on the BLM via general land management statutes than it had given directly on the EPA.
# Mere Anarchy

Mere Anarchy is an anthology of essays by Woody Allen. First published on July 5, 2007, by Ebury Press, the book is a collection of 18 tales, 10 of which previously ran in The New Yorker. It was Allen's first collection in 25 years.

## Reception

In The New York Times, Janet Maslin wrote that Allen's "writing style [...] remains impervious to the changing world around him", that the older essays "outshine" the newer ones but that the newer ones "hold their own", and that the collection is "nostalgically enjoyable" and "timelessly bright". In the Guardian, Adam Mars-Jones called the essays "perfunctory" and "lazy riffs and lame parodies [that] do more to annoy than entertain", while faulting Allen's use of a "facetious linguistic register" and "comedy names". Publishers Weekly wrote, "While this collection doesn't quite measure up to Allen's Without Feathers (1975), there are pieces here—for instance, the report on Mickey Mouse's testimony at the Michael Eisner/Michael Ovitz trial—that will put a rictus on your kisser." Tasha Robinson of The A.V. Club wrote, "At its best, Mere Anarchy is absurd fun, but even Allen's best at this point is only meant for those familiar with, and predisposed to love, his intensely quirky style."

# 1931 Bulgarian parliamentary election

Parliamentary elections were held in Bulgaria on 21 June 1931. The result was a victory for the Popular Bloc, an alliance of the Bulgarian Agrarian National Union (Dragiev), the Democratic Party, the National Liberal Party (Petrov) and the Radical Democratic Party, which won 151 of the 273 seats. Voter turnout was 85.2%.
This would be the last officially partisan election held in Bulgaria before World War II (the 1939 elections were officially nonpartisan, but candidates representing parties ran as individuals). By the time of the next elections in which parties were formally allowed to take part, in 1945, the country had been through two dictatorships and a third, Communist one was rapidly consolidating. As a result, the 1931 election was also the last free election held in the country until 1990.

## Plot

During World War II, German soldiers occupy a small Norwegian town. The citizens are forced to work the mines for the German war effort. The Allies attempt to aid the growing resistance movement by dropping canisters filled with explosives, weapons, ammo, and even chocolate. German soldiers are confounded by the fact that the locals resent them. Several German soldiers are killed or wounded and the townspeople pay a great price for their resistance.

## Production

Editing of the 16mm Film was done at a breakneck pace for the World Premiere in Toronto, Canada on March 13, 1943. The American Premier was March 26 and the official American release date was April 9, 1943. Twentieth Century Fox paid $300,000, a record at the time, for the movie rights.

## Reception

Bosley Crowther, the film reviewer for The New York Times, gave The Moon Is Down a mixed verdict. He lauded screenwriter Nunnally Johnson for creating a "clear and incisive screen version" of the book, resulting in "a picture which is the finest on captured Norway yet and a powerful expression of faith in the enduring qualities of a people whose hearts are strong." He also praised "Irving Pichel's superlative direction and a generally excellent cast". However, Crowther also observed that "the intellectual nature of this picture—its very clear and dispassionate reasoning—drain it of much of the emotion that one expects in such a story at this time."
It was named one of the 10 best films of the year by the National Board of Review.
