# Math Blaster Mystery: The Great Brain Robbery

Math Blaster Mystery: The Great Brain Robbery is a product in a line of educational products created by Davidson & Associates that takes place in a different universe from the original Math Blaster. It has no relation to Davidson's earlier Apple II game Math Blaster Mystery. The game was released in North America, Sweden and Spain. The game was remade in 1998 with the title Math Blaster: Pre-Algebra. The game is regarded as a 'Review and Practice' type of software.

## Plot

In the original game, Dr. Dudley Dabble has stolen the brain of the maths genius Big Brain to win in the great mathematics competition. Rave goes to the mad scientist's mansion to liberate the brain.
In the remake of the game, Dr. Dabble has engineered a brain machine that drains and collects all the mathematics from the population's minds. Rave goes to the mad scientist's mansion three times to disable the machine.

## Gameplay

The player has to navigate Rave around Dr. Dabble's mansion solving math puzzles and collecting key items to progress, until Dr. Dabble's lab is reached. The math puzzles consist of multiple choice questions, formulas, arithmetics, estimates, ratios, negative numbers, BODMAS, decimals and algebraic equations. Every math puzzle activity has three different difficulty levels to choose from. By the near end of the game, the player has to win an arcade-style platformer level by throwing goo at Dr. Dabble's critters.
The remake has the same style of gameplay as the original, but with newer graphics, a different mansion layout, additional math puzzles, background and music tracks. There are two game modes: The Explore Mode, which allows the player to freely explore the mansion and focus on specific math topics and the Mystery Mode which requires the player to do all activities and play the game three times to finish it.

## Educational goals

Math Blaster Pre-Algebra helps introduce the concept of algebra to users in a creative manner, developing their critical skills required for algebra and advanced mathematics. When a user has difficulty tackling a math problem, the solution is shown step by step to reinforce technique. The entire game teaches a variety of topics in a fun and entertaining way.

He also remained as the Chairman of Khadi Board. He was one of the Star Campaigners for BJP in Punjab for the 2022 Punjab Assembly Elections. He contested the Punjab Legislative Assembly Elections in 2017 from Rajpura.
During the farmers' protest, Grewal advised the SGPC that being a purely religious body, by getting involved into the farmers’ agitation, the SGPC is going completely against the mandate given to it under The Sikh Gurdwaras Act, 1925 and Punjab Act 8 of 1925 that describe the prime role of the SGPC to manage gurdwara affairs.
During the farmers' protest Grewal was a part of the committee that was made to discuss the issues of the farmers' protest.
When Prime Minister Narendra Modi's security was breached in Punjab, Grewal claimed that windows of some buses were smashed and some workers were beaten up who were coming to attend the rally of the Prime Minister.

In the month of July, 2021 some farmers entered Grewal's fields and destroyed the paddy saplings transplanted on 1.5 acres of land in Dhanaula, Barnala. An FIR was registered against the farmers who were involved in destroying the paddy saplings.
# Eastern Mediterranean

Eastern Mediterranean is a loose definition of the eastern approximate half, or third, of the Mediterranean Sea, often defined as the countries around the Levantine Sea.
It typically embraces all of that sea's coastal zones, referring to communities connected with the sea and land greatly climatically influenced. It includes the southern half of Turkey's main region, Anatolia; its smaller Hatay Province; the island of Cyprus; the Greek Dodecanese islands; and the countries of Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Palestine, Syria and Lebanon.
Its broadest uses can encompass the Libyan Sea (thus Libya), the Aegean Sea (thus European Turkey and the mainland and islands of Greece), and the Ionian Sea (thus southern Albania in Southeastern Europe) and can extend west to Italy's farthest south-eastern coasts. Jordan is climatically and economically part of the region.

## Regions

The eastern Mediterranean region is commonly interpreted in two ways:
* The Levant, including its historically tied neighboring countries, Balkans and islands of Greece.
* The region of Syria with the island of Cyprus (also known as the Levant), Egypt, Greek Dodecanese and Anatolian Turkey.
The World Health Organization (WHO) divides the world into six WHO regions, for the purposes of reporting, analysis and administration. In this context, the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) is one of those six WHO regions.

## Countries

The countries and territories of the Eastern Mediterranean include Cyprus, Turkey (Anatolia), its smaller Hatay Province, the Greek Dodecanese islands, and the countries of Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Jordan and Egypt.
North-eastern Mediterranean has been put to print as a term for the Greater Balkans: Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Slovenia, North Macedonia, Serbia, Kosovo, Montenegro, Romania. A five-author statistics-rich study of 2019 has sought to add Moldova and Ukraine beyond, which others link more to the Black Sea's economy and history. The three-word term is mainly a complex euphemism for the Balkan peninsula used by those who stigmatise the word "Balkanisation" and to suggest parallels with other conflicts of the Eastern Mediterranean.
The WHO Regional Office for the Eastern Mediterranean includes the Eastern Mediterranean as well as the other regions of contiguous Afro-Eurasia: West Asia, North Africa, the Horn of Africa, Central Asia, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.
# PC/Computing

PC/Computing (later Ziff-Davis Smart Business) was a monthly Ziff Davis publication that for most of its run focused on publishing reviews of IBM-compatible (or "Wintel") hardware and software and tips and reference information for users of such software and hardware.

## History and profile

Established in 1988 under the guidance of founding publisher and columnist Michael Kolowich, the magazine was known for its irreverent style and annual "Windows Superguide" and "Notebook Torture Test" features. The latter feature involved baking, freezing, shaking, dropping, and splashing notebook computers from various manufacturers and then rating the machines based on which ones survived the "torture" and which ones failed. It also featured columns by editor-in-chief Paul Somerson (formerly of PC Magazine, another Ziff-Davis publication), John C. Dvorak, Gil Schwartz, and, for a time in its first few years, Penn Jillette. For some years, the magazine ran a regular column featuring an often-silly "debate" between Dvorak and Somerson. Michael Kolowich was the publisher and columnist until 1991. At its founding, the magazine was based in Burlington and Cambridge, Massachusetts, but relocated in 1991 to Foster City, California, near San Francisco.
The magazine changed its editorial focus from technology to Internet business in January 2000 and abandoned its original name shortly thereafter to try to capitalize on interest in the so-called "dot-com" boom of the late 1990s. When the technology bubble burst in mid-2000, the rechristened "Ziff-Davis Smart Business" in January 2000 lost its ad market. The magazine is the recipient of the National Magazine Award in the Personal Service category in 2000. It folded in 2002.

# Dickie Dowsett

Gilbert James "Dickie" Dowsett (3 July 1931 – 19 April 2020) was an English professional footballer who played for Sudbury Town, Tottenham Hotspur, Southend United, Southampton, Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic, Crystal Palace and Weymouth.

## Playing career

Born in Widford, Essex, Dowsett began his career in the youth section of Chelmsford City, then non-League club Sudbury Town before joining Tottenham Hotspur in May 1952. The inside forward scored a goal in his one senior appearance against Aston Villa on 21 August 1954.
Dowsett transferred to Southend United in May 1955, where he netted four times in 20 matches in the 1955–56 season. Whilst at the Roots Hall club, he was spotted by Frank Dudley, who recommended him to his former colleague Ted Bates, who was now manager at Southampton. He joined Southampton in July 1956 and featured in two league matches and one in the FA Cup but was unable to stake a claim for a regular place in the first team.
Dowsett signed for Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic in June 1957, for a fee of £100. At Dean Court, Dowsett was converted from a winger into an inside forward with great success. In the five years with Bournemouth, he was the club's top scorer in three seasons. Described as "determined, fast and useful in the air", the free scoring player found the net on 79 occasions in 169 matches. Bournemouth's current club badge features the highly regarded player's profile.
In November 1962, he joined Crystal Palace for a fee of £3500; at the Selhurst Park club, he notched up a further 22 goals in 54 league appearances. In June 1965, Dowsett went on to play for Weymouth of the Southern League, where he ended his competitive career. In his first season at Weymouth, he helped the club take the Southern League Championship for the second successive season.

## Post–football career

After retiring from playing, Dowsett returned to Dean Court where he became Bournemouth's commercial manager, holding the post from June 1968 until March 1983.
Dowsett was a member of the Dorset Cricket Society and recalled his football experiences in an after dinner speech he made to members in March 2010.
Dowsett died on 19 April 2020. He had been suffering from dementia.
Dowsett's silhouette is used on the present day AFC Bournemouth club badge.

# Isabella Weber

Isabella M. Weber (born 1987 in Nuremberg, Germany) is a German economist. She is an associate professor of economics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.
Weber became more widely known for having taken a position in favor of a price control policy. Her op-ed published in The Guardian in December 2021 caused an uproar among economists, some of whom, including Paul Krugman, have since apologized and become open to price caps. Weber's thoughts around focusing more on what she calls "sellers' inflation" (instead of focusing on increased demand) have become more popular and mainstream by 2023, especially in Europe. In additional to price caps and strict anti-price gouging legislation to combat inflation, she also supports windfall profit taxes.

## Career

Weber completed her undergraduate studies in political science and economics at the Freie Universität Berlin. Weber received a PhD in Development Studies from the University of Cambridge in 2018. Her thesis was titled China's Escape from the 'Big-Bang': The 1980s Price Reform Debate in Historical Perspective and advised by Peter Nolan. She received a second PhD, in Economics, from the New School for Social Research in 2019.
From 2017 to 2019, Weber was a lecturer in Economics at Goldsmiths, University of London. In 2019, she became assistant professor of economics at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.
In December 2021, an op-ed she published in The Guardian which argued that strategic price controls could help control inflation in bottleneck situations was heavily criticized by economists, making her "the most hated woman in economics" (The New Yorker). Paul Krugman strongly criticized the op-ed but apologized during the peak of the fracas and since changed his position on price caps, arguing they might be a useful inflation management tool. The British magazine Prospect called Weber "prescient", praising her "willingness to challenge economic orthodoxies with robust, historically informed analysis".
In 2022-23, Weber was a fellow in the Future of Capitalism program at the Berggruen Institute.
In 2022, Weber was a member of the German government's gas price commission, an expert advisory group of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action.

## Awards and honors

* In 2019, Weber was also awarded the Warren Samuels Prize for Interdisciplinary Research in History of Economic Thought and Methodology from the Association for Social Economics (ASE)
* In 2019, Weber was awarded the Joan Robinson Prize from the European Association for Evolutionary Political Economy for her book “How China Escaped Shock Therapy: The Market Reform Debate”
* In 2022, Weber was named one of Bloomberg's "50 people who defined global business in 2022"
* In 2023, Weber was recognized on Time Magazine's Time 100 Next list which recognizes rising leaders across multiple fields

# Festac Town

Festac Town is a federal housing estate located at Lagos Nigeria. Its name is derived from the acronym FESTAC, which stands for Second World African Festival of Arts and Culture that was held there in 1977. It is also important to know that Festac is under Amuwo-Odofin local government area in Lagos.

## History

Festac town, originally referred to as "Festival Town" or "Festac Village", is a residential estate designed to house the participants of the Second World Festival of Black Arts and Culture of 1977 (Festac77). Consisting of 5,000 contemporary dwelling units and seven major avenues, the town was designed in an efficient grid in order to accommodate upwards of 45,000 visitors as well as any Nigerian employees and officers working at the Festival. The Nigerian government invested substantial sums of money and resources into building Festac Town, which sported state of the art electrical generators, police and fire stations, access to public transportation, supermarkets, banks, health centres, public restrooms, and postal services. The village was therefore intended to evoke the modern age and the promise of state-sponsored economic development fuelled by oil revenues.
After the Festival, the Federal Government of Nigeria allocated the housing and landed properties to eventual winners who participated in a ballot. Initial regulations forbade such winners from renting and disposing-of the properties to third parties. The first festival was held in 1966 at Dakar, Senegal.

## Layout

Festac town is built in a grid network consisting of seven major roads/boulevards or avenues from which minor roads extend. These avenues are identified by their numbers: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th Avenues respectively. The 1st, 2nd, 4th and 7th Avenues surround a portion of the town in what seems like an almost rectangular road network which are connected and accessible through each other. The 3rd and 5th avenues run parallel within the town. The 6th avenue is found in a portion of the town accessible through a bridge from the 1st Avenue. The town consists of cul-de-sacs or closes which are named in an alphabetical format.
Festac town is accessible from the Lagos-Badagry Expressway through three main gates that open into the 1st, 2nd and 7th avenues and are called the First, Second and Third gates respectively. The town is also accessible through the Festac Link Bridge.

## Status

The status of FESTAC Town is somewhat confusing as the Federal, State and Local Government all lay claim to the management of the estate and occasionally issue the residents with various charges ranging from valuation fees, local government levies to tenement rates.

## Commercial and Leisure Activities

Once a sleepy estate, FESTAC Town has in the past few years attracted varied forms of businesses within the estate and its environs. Today, there is a growing number of commercial banks, and shopping complexes that cater to the residents. There are also several hotels and hangout spots within the estate which have contributed to the vibrant night life.
