Nicholas Senior of New Noise Magazine calls the album "a notable step up for the East Coast collective" in "how they’ve doubled down on the menace and brutality while expanding their sonic palate in all the right ways".
James Weaver of Distorted Sound Magazine states that "Intertwining riffing that ooze technicality from guitarists Steven Funderburk and Justin Longshore demonstrates the band’s skill whilst the combination of Michael Ranne‘s blasts from the drums and Danny Rodriguez‘s thunderous vocals pack a powerful punch".

# Rolling stock company

A rolling stock company (ROSCO) or rolling stock leasing company owns and maintains railway engines and carriages which are leased to train operating companies who operate the trains.
Rolling stock companies have been criticized as rentier capitalist, in that they add little value to the end product versus direct ownership of the trains themselves, and extract large profits from what were once in many cases government owned and government-financed assets.

# Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Lingayen–Dagupan

The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Lingayen–Dagupan is an archdiocese of the Roman Catholic Church in the Province of Pangasinan, Philippines. Its cathedral is the Metropolitan Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist in Dagupan with a co-cathedral, the Epiphany of Our Lord Parish Church, in the neighboring municipality of Lingayen.

## History

The Diocese of Lingayen was created on May 19, 1928, comprising the entire province of Pangasinan. In 1954, because of the destruction brought on Lingayen by World War II, the see was transferred to Dagupan, thus renaming the diocese as the Diocese of Lingayen–Dagupan. The diocese was elevated to an archdiocese in 1963. In 1985, two new dioceses were carved out from the archdiocese: Alaminos and Urdaneta.

## Coat of arms

The nimbed silver eagle is the symbol of Saint John the Apostle and Evangelist, the titular of the cathedral at Dagupan. The silver star (previously depicted as three gold Oriental crowns) refers to the Epiphany of the Lord, the titular of the co-cathedral at Lingayen. The red wavy pile represents Lingayen Gulf. The green field represents the "rice-bowl" of the Philippines, the whole of Pangasinan and Nueva Ecija. The three heraldic roses represent our Lady, the Mystical Rose, who is venerated in the archdiocese under three titles: Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary of Manaoag; Our Lady of Purification; and Mary Help of Christians.

# Peter Ivanovich Shuvalov

Count Peter Ivanovich Shuvalov (Russian: Пётр Иванович Шувалов, romanized: Pëtr Ivanovič Šuvalov; 1711 – 15 January [O.S. 4 January] 1762) was a Russian statesman and Field Marshal who, together with his brother Aleksandr Shuvalov, paved the way for the elevation of the Shuvalov family to the highest offices of the Russian Empire. He is also remembered as the founder of Izhevsk, the capital of Udmurtia.
Pyotr Shuvalov began his career as a page at the court of tsesarevna Elizabeth. He was brought to tsesarevna's attention when he married her close friend and in-law, Mavra Shepeleva. For his assistance in the enthronement of Elizabeth, he was promoted to the rank of Chamberlain, then appointed senator and became a count in 1746.
Initially, he was in charge of an army division stationed near St.Petersburg and then the Observation Corps, formed by Shuvalov himself and designated to protect the rear of the regular army. He also held the post of a conference minister and managed the artillery and weapons chancelleries.
Shuvalov improved the Russian artillery and built a few weapons factories. He invented a special canister-shooting gun with an oval bore, called "secret howitzer", which had a limited success; his more useful addition to Russian artillery were licornes, a kind of gun-howitzers, which remained in service for almost hundred years. He enjoyed unlimited power throughout the reign of Elizabeth due to his wife's and cousin Ivan Ivanovich Shuvalov's influence on the empress. Almost no single affair of the state was to be taken care of without Shuvalov, especially those pertaining to national economy and military organization. In 1753, Shuvalov presented before the Governing Senate a project for eliminating internal customs offices and outposts and increasing tariffs on imported goods, instead.
Shuvalov is known to have been very selfish at times. He worried excessively about his own interests and, quite often, to the detriment of the state and private parties. For example, Shuvalov obtained for himself an exclusive right to export lumber, lard, blubber oil and monopolized the seal trade. Having led a luxurious lifestyle, Shuvalov left a debt of more than a million rubles to the state treasury.

# Isthmus

An isthmus (/ˈɪsməs, ˈɪsθməs/; pl.: isthmuses or isthmi) is a narrow piece of land connecting two larger areas across an expanse of water by which they are otherwise separated. A tombolo is an isthmus that consists of a spit or bar, and a strait is the sea counterpart of an isthmus, a narrow stretch of sea between two landmasses that connects two larger bodies of water.

## Isthmus vs land bridge vs peninsula

Isthmus and land bridge are related terms, with isthmus having a broader meaning. A land bridge is an isthmus connecting Earth's major land masses. The term land bridge is usually used in biogeology to describe land connections that used to exist between continents at various times and were important for the migration of people and various species of animals and plants, e.g. Beringia and Doggerland.
An isthmus is a land connection between two bigger landmasses, while a peninsula is rather a land protrusion that is connected to a bigger landmass on one side only and surrounded by water on all other sides. Technically, an isthmus can have canals running from coast to coast (e.g. the Panama Canal), and thus resemble two peninsulas; however, canals are artificial features distinguished from straits.

## Major isthmuses

The world's major isthmuses include:
* Karelian Isthmus in Europe
* Kra Isthmus in Mainland Southeast Asia
* Bird's Neck Isthmus in Western New Guinea
* Isthmus of Tehuantepec in Middle America
* Isthmus of Perekop in Ukraine
* Isthmus of Panama in Middle America
* Isthmus of Suez between North Africa and Western Asia
Of historic importance were:
* Isthmus of Catanzaro in Italy
* Isthmus of Corinth in Greece
The cities of Auckland, Madison, Manila, and Seattle are located on isthmuses.

## Canals

Canals are often built across isthmuses, where they may be a particularly advantageous shortcut for marine transport. For example:
* The Panama Canal crosses the Isthmus of Panama, connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans
* The Suez Canal connects the Mediterranean Sea (part of the Atlantic Ocean) and the Red Sea (part of the Indian Ocean), cutting across the western side of the Isthmus of Suez, formed by the Sinai Peninsula
* The Crinan Canal crosses the isthmus between Loch Crinan and Loch Gilp, which connects the Kintyre peninsula with the rest of Scotland
* The Welland Canal in the Niagara Peninsula (technically an isthmus); it connects Lake Ontario to Lake Erie
* The Corinth Canal connects the Gulf of Corinth in the Ionian Sea with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea
