# Sharqiya Sands

The Sharqiya Sands (Arabic: ٱلرِّمَال ٱلشَّرْقِيَّة, romanized: Ar-Rimāl Ash-Sharqiyyah, formerly known as Wahiba Sands (Arabic: رِمَال وَهِيْبَة, romanized: Rimāl Wahībah or Arabic: رَمْلَة آل وَهِيْبَة, romanized: Ramlat Āl Wahībah)) is a region of desert in Oman. The region was named for the Bani Wahiba tribe. Divided between the northern and southern governorates in the Eastern Region. The area is defined by a boundary of 180 kilometers (110 mi) north to south and 80 kilometers (50 mi) east to west, with an area of 12,500 square kilometers (4,800 sq mi). The desert has been of scientific interest since a 1986 expedition by the Royal Geographical Society documented the diversity of the terrain, the flora and fauna, noting 16,000 invertebrates as well as 200 species of other wildlife, including avifauna. They also documented 150 species of native flora.

## Geology

The desert was formed during the Quaternary period as a result of the forces of south-west blowing monsoon and the northern shamal trade wind, coming in from the east. Based on the types of dunes found in the area, it is divided into the high, or upper, Wahiba and low Wahiba. The upper area contains mega-ridge sand systems on a north–south line that are believed to have been formed by monsoon. The dunes of the north, formed at some point after the last regional glaciation, measure up to 100 meters (330 ft) high, with peaks accumulating in the areas just beyond the strongest wind speeds, where declining velocity wind deposited sand. The north and west boundaries of the desert are delineated by the fluvial systems Wadi Batha and Wadi Andam. Beneath the surface sands are an older layer of cemented carbonate sand. Alluvium deposits believed to have originated from the Wadi Batha during the Paleolithic era have been disclosed in the central desert 200 meters (660 ft) beneath the interdune surface. Wind erosion is believed to have contributed to the existence of a nearly level plain in the southwest.

## Inhabitants

The area is occupied by Bedouins who congregate at Al-Huyawah, an oasis near the border of the desert, between June and September to gather dates. Tribes present in the area at the time of the Royal Geographical Society expedition included, predominantly, Al Wahiba (or Yal Wahiba) for whom the region is named, Al-Amr, Al-Bu-Isa, Hikman, Hishm and Janaba.

# Tewitfield

Tewitfield is a hamlet in Lancashire, England, near Borwick and Carnforth, and in the parish of Priest Hutton. The word "tewit" is a name for the bird better known as the lapwing.

## Canal and locks

Tewitfield Locks is the current terminus of the navigable Lancaster Canal, and the furthest north point on navigable inland waterways in England and Wales. The Inland Waterways Association includes Tewitfield Marina as one of the locations in its "Silver Paddle Challenge" which encourages boaters to "Explore the far flung reaches of the network".
The Lancaster Canal Trust, the Northern Reaches Restoration Group and others are campaigning for the re-opening of the Canal to its original terminus at Kendal, Cumbria. This would involve, among other things, refurbishing the seven locks situated just north of the hamlet, which are without gates and functioning only as weirs. The locks are grade II listed.

## Chapel

Tewitfield Methodist chapel may have been built as an ale-house for workers building the canal, and in 2017 became used a base for volunteers restoring the canal.

# Lake Fork Mohican River

The Lake Fork is a tributary of the Mohican River, 14.7 miles (23.7 km) long, in north-central Ohio in the United States. Via the Mohican, Walhonding, Muskingum and Ohio Rivers, it is part of the watershed of the Mississippi River, draining an area of 344 square miles (890 km$^2$).
The Lake Fork is formed by the confluence of the Jerome Fork and the Muddy Fork in southeastern Ashland County, and flows generally south-southwestwardly into northwestern Holmes County, where it joins the Mohican River, about 3.5 miles (5.6 km) southeast of Loudonville.
In Ashland County, a 1936 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dam causes the river to form Mohicanville Lake.
# Buyout

In finance, a buyout is an investment transaction by which the ownership equity, or a controlling interest of a company, or a majority share of the capital stock of the company is acquired. The acquirer thereby "buys out" the present equity holders of the target company. A buyout will often include the purchasing of the target company's outstanding debt, which is referred to as "assumed debt" by the purchaser. It is usually synonymous with "acquisition".

## Non-finance usage

The term may apply more generally to the purchase by one party of all of the rights of another party with respect to an ongoing transaction between the two. For example:
* An employer may "buy out" an employee's contract by making a single prepayment, so as to have no ongoing obligation to employ the person;
* A landlord may buy out the remainder of a tenant's lease, effectively paying them to vacate.
* A government may buy out homes in a floodplain or other area subject to hazard. The language used by FEMA, a United States agency, is "acquisition".
* In Major League Baseball, a club option is an optional year at the end of the ballplayer's contract that may be guaranteed at the discretion of the team. Usually, the option comes with a "buyout" which represents a fraction of the value of the option. If at the time that the club is in a position to exercise its option and the team decides not to exercise the option, the team will usually pay the buyout and decline the option. Generally, this results in the ballplayer becoming eligible to be a free agent. Alternatively, if the contract turned one of the ballplayer's arbitration-eligible seasons into an option season, the team can decline the option with the ballplayer then entering the arbitration process instead.
* In real estate, a landlord has the opportunity to buy out their tenant on a mutually agreed upon price. Most of the time, landlords use buyouts to remove rent-stabilized tenants and move in a tenant who will pay a higher rent. This type of buyout can create benefits for both parties.

# Konstanty Zamoyski Palace

The Konstanty Zamoyski Palace (Polish: Pałac Konstantego Zamoyskiego; Pałac Zamoyskich) is a historic building on Foksal Street in Warsaw, Poland.

## History

Prior to the construction of the Zamoyski Palace, the grounds had been dedicated for a Vauxhall Gardens-style parkland. In 1870 Konstanty Zamoyski became the grounds' owner.
The palace was built to architect Leonard Marconi's Renaissance Revival design. It comprises a main corpus and two perpendicular wings, to either side, flanking a courtyard. The driveway to Foksal Street is closed by a late-Baroque gate.
During World War II, the palace was slightly damaged. In 1949 the building complex was transferred to the Association of Polish Architects (Stowarzyszenie Architektów Polskich). The palace has also housed the Association of Polish Painters and Graphic Artists (Związek Polskich Artystów Malarzy i Grafików).
The palace now houses the Association of Polish Architects, the Association of House Builders, and the restaurant and club Endorfina Foksal.
