# Giraavaru (Kaafu Atoll)

Giraavaru is an island of Malé Atoll (the administrative Kaafu Atoll) nowadays hosting a tourist resort. It is located on the southwestern fringe of the lagoon of North Malé Atoll. It was inhabited in the past by the community known as Giraavaru people (or Tivaru people).

## Historical and anthropological facts

The Giraavaru islanders had certain customs of their own, the women, for example, used to wear distinctive white cloth patchwork bands on the neckpiece of their libaas dress (boavalhu) instead of the usual Maldivian golden or silvery thread designs.
In 1968 the island was depopulated due to heavy erosion and reduction of the community to a few members. The Giravaru people were resettled in nearby Hulhule Island, at the eastern edge of the Male' Atoll lagoon. At the time of depopulation there were only a few coconut trees growing on Giraavaru and the water in the wells had become saline.
When the airport at Hulhule was expanded they were relocated in the western end of Maafanu district in Malé. The Giraavaru culture assimilated into the wider Malé society through inter-marriage after only about two generations.
It is unlikely that the Giraavaru islanders were the only early settlers in the Maldives, as it is often claimed on the basis of myths and legends. From the anthropological point of view there were, and still are, other distinctive groups of people in the Maldives, like in Huvadhu Atoll for example, having their particular customs, manners and even speaking markedly different language forms. However, the Giraavaru islanders have attracted much more attention owing to their proximity to the capital.
Malé islanders and the royal court were fascinated by the distinctiveness of the Giraavaru islanders for centuries and thus they became locally an iconic people group.

## Second Life

As of 2025, Works of reclaiming the Eastern side of the lagoon commenced as a way of relieving the overcrowding in Malé. The island will be connected to Malé by the Thilamalé bridge. As for the natural island of Giraavaru, it is now a resort.

# Bartolo Mascarello

Bartolo Mascarello (1927 – March 12, 2005) was an Italian winemaker most known for producing Barolo wine. Bartolo joined the family firm, Cantina Mascarello, in 1945 and learned winemaking from his father, Giulio, who in turn had been trained by his father, Bartolomeo. Mascarello spent most of his life tending four small vineyards in prime locations: Cannubi, San Lorenzo, Rué in Barolo, and Rocche in La Morra. He favoured the old-school practice of blending from those four plots, instead of single-vineyard bottlings. A teenage partisan during WWII, he was dubbed, together with fellow producers Teobaldo Cappellano and Giuseppe Rinaldi, ‘the Last of the Mohicans’ for his dogged refusal to let traditions die. For years, Mascarello's unyielding stance branded him as a has-been among some of his peers and Italian wine critics. In the late 1980s and early 1990s international and Italian critics launched an assault on traditional Barolos in favor of dark wines with coffee and vanilla sensations derived from aging in new barriques. Mascarello became the denomination's guardian of traditional Barolo, as he clung tenaciously to the methods taught to him by his forebears.
The producer – who deplored the shift from large Slavonian casks to small French oak barriques – even created a special hand-painted "No Barrique, No Berlusconi" label. He explained: "No Barrique, because I am against the use of barriques in Barolo – I am a traditional producer. No Berlusconi because I don't like his type of politics." The original hand-painted labels are now a much sought-after collectors’ item. Mascarello, who had a loyal core of customers from around the world throughout his career, also started to receive critical acclaim. The Italian wine world was shocked and thrilled when his wine received recognition in 2002 by the leading Italian wine guide, reversing years of criticism.
Ironic and witty, he declared shortly before his death: "As the time came to change oak casks I made sure that every corner of the cellar was filled, so that when I die there would be no room for barriques". After his death his daughter Maria Teresa took over running of the winery, following her father's traditional methods. She eschews marketing or promotion and does not have a website.
# First Presbyterian Church (Durham, North Carolina)

First Presbyterian Church is a historic Presbyterian church in Durham, North Carolina. Located in the Downtown Durham Historic District, it is the oldest Presbyterian congregation in the city.

## History

In 1860, Dr. Richard Blacknall moved from Rougemont to Durham and convinced Rev. James Phillips and Rev. Charles Phillips of Chapel Hill to hold Presbyterian sermons in Trinity Methodist Church and First Baptist Church. In 1871, the congregation formally organized during a meeting of the Orange Presbytery. In 1875, they purchased a plot of land on the corner of Roxboro Road and Main Street and constructed a small frame church building.
The industrialist George Washington Watts was a member of the church and funded missionary trips to Cuba, Brazil, Korea, and Africa. In 1890, helped fund a new brick Gothic Revival church building with a seventy-foot tower.
In 1916, the church hired the architects Milburn and Heister, who built the Carolina Theatre, to design a new Gothic Revival building. In 1922, a parsonage was added to the east of the church.
The church partnered with Trinity Methodist, First Baptist, and St. Philip's Episcopal to create Congregations in Action, an organization that provided assistance to residents of Oldham Towers and the Liberty Street Apartments.
# Akrom Yoʻldoshev

Akrom Yoʻldoshev or Akramjon Yoʻldoshev or Akram Yuldashev (Russian: Акрам Юлдашев; Uzbek: Акром Йўлдошев; Akram Yuldashev; June 25, 1963 – 2010/2011) was the founder of Akromiya, an Islamist organization that operates in Uzbekistan. The Uzbek government has designated and banned Akromiya as a terrorist.

## Early life

Yoʻldoshev was a native of Andijan, Uzbekistan and was trained as an engineer. He worked as a math teacher and for a furniture company in Andijan, before forming Akromiya. In 1992 he published Iymonga Yul, a pamphlet advocating Islamic values that gained him support among the populace. Uzbek police arrested him in April, 1998 for possession of narcotics. A court sentenced him to 30 months imprisonment, but the government released him in December 1998 due to an amnesty.

## Involvement in Islamism

Police arrested him in February 1999, the day after the 1999 Tashkent bombings that killed 16 people, accusing him of involvement. A court sentenced him to 17 years imprisonment for heading Akromiya.
Critics of the Uzbek government doubted that he was guilty of the charges against him. Scott Horton of the Columbia Law School has said "There's nothing that involves a challenge to government." Alisher Ilkhamov, an Uzbek who is a sociologist at the University of London, said "The government perceives any grass-roots movement with hostility, whether it's Islamic or not". These critics claimed that "the fierce response to Yuldashev stems from the government's deep fear of any religious group that operates without official sanction".
In 2005, an armed uprising took place in Andijan. Among the demands was the release of Akrom Yoʻldoshev. The Uzbek government cracked down, and several hundred civilians were killed in the events that ended the uprising.

## Family

His wife, Yodgoroy Yoʻldosheva, has lived in Boise, Idaho, United States along with 52 other refugees since the Andijan massacre in May 2005. Yoʻldoshev has appeared on state-run television three times, apologizing for encouraging the unrest and telling refugees they should return to Uzbekistan. Yoʻldosheva herself has asked the Uzbek government for permission to return, but has not yet received an answer. His wife has denied Yoʻldoshev had any ties to the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, a militant organization affiliated with Al-Qaeda, or Hizb ut-Tahrir, another Islamist organization.

## Death

Yoʻldoshev's trial appearances in late 2005 were the last times anyone outside the government ever saw him. His fate remained a mystery until 2016.
International rights groups such as U.S.-based Human Rights Watch (HRW) repeatedly released statements calling on Uzbekistan's government to provide information on whereabouts of Yuldashev.
In January 2016, Uzbek Service announced that Yoʻldoshev died in 2010/2011 of tuberculosis while imprisoned.
# Iraqi National Dialogue Front

The Iraqi Front for National Dialogue (Arabic: الجبهة العراقية للحوار الوطني al-Jabha al-Iraqia li al-Hiwar al-Watani) also known as Hiwar is a Sunni Arab-led Iraqi political party.
Originally formed to contest the December 2005 elections, it described itself as a non-sectarian coalition that wants to end the presence of foreign troops and to rebuild government institutions.
The main components were initially:
* The Iraqi National Front, led by former Minister of State Saleh al-Mutlaq, who was the chief Sunni Arab negotiator for the constitution
* The National Front for a Free and United Iraq of Hassan Zaydan
* The Iraqi Christian Democratic Party of Minas al-Yusufi [sv]
* The Democratic Arab Front of Farhan al-Sudayd
* The Sons of Iraq Movement of Ali al-Suhayri
The coalition included Arabs, Kurds, Assyrians, Yezidis and Shabaks.
Mutlaq campaigned against the constitution in the October 2005 referendum, and refused to join the other main Sunni Arab-led list, Iraqi Accord Front because that group's largest component, the Iraqi Islamic Party, had backed the new constitution, which Mutlaq rejected due to it granting federalism and autonomy to different regions, and also because it did not emphasise Iraq's Arab identity.
The Front performed relatively well in the December 2005 election, winning 11 seats, but complained of widespread electoral fraud and called for a re-run of the poll.
Prior to the 2010 Iraqi Elections it joined the secular Iraqiyya coalition and was allocated 16 out of their 91 seats in the Council of Representatives of Iraq, becoming the biggest individual party with a Sunni Arab majority.
# Ulysses Hollimon

Ulysses "Slim" Hollimon (June 23, 1931 – June 26, 2023) was an American professional baseball pitcher who played in the Negro American League in a nine-season span from 1948 through 1956. Born in Amory, Mississippi, he batted and threw right handed.
Hollimon played for several teams during his time in the league, most prominently with the Birmingham Black Barons and the Baltimore Elite Giants. Besides, he pitched in the East–West All-Star Game held at Comiskey Park in 1951, where he hit a double.
Afterwards, Hollimon attended Tennessee A&I College and was employed by the Ford Motor Company for 33 years. In addition, he coached Little League Baseball for many years in Plattsburg, Missouri, where he settled.
Prior to the 2008 MLB Draft, the Kansas City Royals selected Hollimon as a pitcher in the special draft of the surviving Negro league players. Baseball Hall of Fame player Dave Winfield conceived the idea to have this draft, which allowed the MLB teams each select a former NLB player to rectify and recognize those ballplayers who did not have the opportunity to play in the major leagues on the basis of race.
Hollimon died on June 26, 2023, three days after his 92nd birthday.

# Bottleneck (software)

In software engineering, a bottleneck occurs when the capacity of an application or a computer system is limited by a single component, like the neck of a bottle slowing down the overall water flow. The bottleneck has the lowest throughput of all parts of the transaction path.
System designers try to avoid bottlenecks through direct effort towards locating and tuning existing bottlenecks in a software application. Some examples of engineering bottlenecks that appear include the following: a processor, a communication link, and disk IO. A system or application will hit a bottleneck if the work arrives at a comparatively faster pace relative to other processing components. According to the theory of constraints, improving on the occurrences of hot-spot point of the bottleneck constraint improves the overall processing speed of the software. A thought-provoking stipulation of the theory reveals that improving the efficiency of a particular process stage rather than the constraint can generate even more delay and decrease overall processing capabilities of a software.
It is impossible to remove bottlenecks completely since there is always a component that limits the overall performance, so the usual goal is to improve the bottleneck component so that the whole system can achieve the desired performance.
The process of tracking down bottlenecks (also referred as "hot spots" - sections of the code that execute most frequently - i.e. have the highest execution count) is called performance analysis. Reduction is achieved with the utilization of specialized tools such as performance analyzers or profilers, the objective being to make particular sections of code perform as effectively as possible to improve overall algorithmic efficiency.
