# Fußball ist unser Leben

Fußball ist unser Leben (German for "football is our life") is a German football (soccer) drama/comedy movie, centering on supporters of FC Schalke 04. It was directed by Tomy Wigand [de], with Uwe Ochsenknecht and Ralf Richter in the main roles.

## Plot

Hans Pollak is a hard core fan of Schalke 04. Together with his best friend Mike, he is member of the fanclub "Dios Knappen Gelsenkirchen", named after their idol, the (fictional) Schalke star player Pablo Di Ospeo. Pollak is so single-minded that he neglects the birth of his second child to watch his favorite club, and takes his family and girlfriend for granted.
One day, Pollak decides to bet his house that Di Ospeo will score in the next game. He is shocked to see that his idol is addicted to cocaine, abducts him and chains him into his room to make him quit cold turkey. Then, Pollak's neglected girlfriend has an affair and Pollak's mother dies of a coronary; Di Ospeo tried to rescue her but could not reach her because he was shackled. Desperate Pollak decides to hang himself so that his family — he assumes that his house is lost — will at least get his life insurance. But his friends save him using a Schalke flag, and a rehabilitated Di Ospeo scores the winning goal in the next game. Having won the bet after all, Pollak keeps his house and makes up with his girlfriend.

# Robert Ayling (cricketer)

Robert Ayling (dates unknown) was an English cricketer who made two appearances in first-class cricket matches in 1796, both for Kent sides against teams from Middlesex. He scored a total of 22 runs in his four innings, with a highest score of 11.
He is known to have played for Woolwich Cricket Club in a match in 1806 against MCC at Lord's Old Ground and for a 23-man Kent side in an odds match in 1807 against an England side at Penenden Heath. William Ayling, who was possibly his brother, played in both of these matches on the same side.
# GTS (company)

Global Trading Systems, which uses the trade name GTS, is an American proprietary trading and market making firm headquartered in New York. The firm accounts for 3 to 5 percent of the daily turnover of US equities and has handled over 250 IPO listings since 2013.
GTS has additional offices in Chicago, Florida, London, Paris, Warsaw, and Israel.

## Background

In 2006, GTS was co-founded by Ari Rubenstein, David Lieberman and Amit Livnat. The trio had previously worked at the Pax Clearing Corporation in the cash equities business. During their time there, they noticed that computers were able to trade much faster and more efficiently than humans. When the Chicago Mercantile Exchange became a public company via an initial public offering, it was clear to them that technology would drive business and gave them the idea to make a business based on electronic trading.
GTS began as an equity trading operation but later expanded into other products. In 2009, it started trading futures and in 2013 started trading currencies.
In August 2014, GTS's subsidiary Strike Technologies sold StrikeNet, its microwave technology unit, to TMX Group.
In 2016, GTS acquired the Designated Market Maker (DMM) Trading Business of Barclays at the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) floor. As a result, GTS became the DMM for over 1,200 listed securities at the NYSE floor which included Twitter, Inc, Berkshire Hathaway and Alibaba Group. With Barclay's exit, there were no more banks acting as market makers at the NYSE floor and the market makers were now automated trading firms. Apart from GTS, its competitors on the NYSE floor were Virtu Financial and Citadel Securities. While the firms employed human traders, the business was mostly performed by computers.
In November 2017, GTS teamed up with BNP Paribas to trade US Treasuries. This would involve BNP using GTS' technology to improve pricing for its clients and boost its market share of US Treasury trading. One year later, BNP's market share of US Treasury secondary trading on electronic platforms grew from 1.5 to 4 percent. The two then extended their partnership to trade US equities.
In November 2018, GTS announced it had acquired the automated ETF and retail stock trading divisions of Cantor Fitzgerald. The deal was done so GTS would be able to start directly serving retail customers. In the same month, GTS and Mischler Financial Group entered a strategic alliance to enhance their capital markets business.
In December 2018, GTS acquired an ownership stake in Wavelength Capital Management, a quantitative investment firm.
In June 2019, after the acquisition of the two Cantor Fitzgerald divisions, GTS stated it would expand into US corporate bond trading.
In December 2019, GTS acquired the equity options trading division of Barclays.
In October 2023, GTS acquired the FX trading unit of HC Tech. GTS saw growth in foreign exchange market making due to global volatility caused by events such as the Russian invasion of Ukraine and 2023 Israel–Hamas war.

# A Midnight Clear (novel)

A Midnight Clear is the third novel by the American novelist William Wharton. Based on Wharton's own experiences, it was published in 1982 following Birdy (1978) and Dad (1981). The novels deals with six American soldiers who get a mission to have an eye on a German outpost at the heart of the Ardennes Forest, but the mission turns out to be much more difficult than expected. Wharton notes that he wrote this novel "thinking of the massacre of My Lai in Vietnam, to show how easy it was for a massacre to take place. And he did know how easy".

## Plot

The novel is set during the last days of WWII in the Ardennes Forest, and follows a group of six American soldiers, led by sergeant William Knot, called Won't by his comrades. Weary of this futile war, they are ordered to establish an observation post in an old chateau in order to have an eye on a German outpost. A few days after their arrival, they begin hearing strange noises and noticing Germans leaving strange signs of their presence. After some difficult communication with the Germans, they realize that the "Krauts" wish to surrender to avoid being sent to Russia. Everything seems perfectly ready for a fake surrender scene to finish the deal. But war is never so simple.

## Reception

Though not as popular as Wharton's earlier novels, A Midnight Clear was generally well-received by critics. For instance, Thomas R. Edwards of The New York Times calls the novel "a modest inquiry into war, youth and extinction ... [which is] also remarkable". Sherwood Williams of The Christian Science Monitor calls it a "WWII saga of remarkable power" noting that "Wharton reveals the ugliness of war far better by reminding us of the joy of life than by pedantically documenting the brutality of battle".

## Film adaptation

In 1992, the novel was adapted into a popular movie of the same name, starring an ensemble cast that features Ethan Hawke and Gary Sinise, among others. The film received generally positive reviews. It holds an 88% favorable rating on Rotten Tomatoes which is based on 40 reviews. One of its unique features is how it shows the relation with enemy soldiers: "One of the most impactful aspects of A Midnight Clear is that when the time comes to kill, the targets are no longer faceless". The Washington Post praises the movie as "a war film completely unlike any other, a compelling accomplishment that's more soul than blood and bullets".
# Kyle Craft

Kyle Craft (born January 9, 1989), is an American singer-songwriter and musician based in Portland, Oregon. He released his debut album, Dolls of Highland from Sub Pop records in 2016.

## Biography

Craft was born in Shreveport, Louisiana. First drawn to music through the Baptist church choir in his early childhood, Craft was introduced to rock music through a David Bowie compilation that he found in Kmart. At the age of 15, he started playing the acoustic guitar his grandmother gave him for Christmas. He began to record songs on a laptop that he bought in 2007.
Craft relocated first in Austin, Texas, where he formed the band Gashcat releasing the album, Reunion! in 2011 followed by the Devil Kid Demos EP. The band broke up in 2013 due in part to the persistent negative comparison to Neutral Milk Hotel. Craft moved to Portland, where he started writing his solo debut album. After recording the tracks at the laundry room of his Shreveport home with a DIY rig and his laptop, he reconnected with Sub Pop Records, whom he has been in touch with after previously passing over a demo. The tracks were mixed by Brandon Summers and Benjamin Weikel of The Helio Sequence, and Craft released his debut album, Dolls of Highland, in April 2016. He assembled a live band following its release and embarked a tour. Craft was selected as the opening act for Drive-By Truckers Fall 2016 tour.

## Musical style and artistry

AllMusic's James Christopher Monger described Craft as "a singer/songwriter with a robust, full-throated wail and knack for pairing Stones-ian hooks and Dylan-esque wordplay with glam-kissed pop swagger." Rolling Stone wrote that he sounds like "a swamp bar jukebox loaded with British glitter and Seventies Southern rock" and turns his tracks into a "poetic gumbo of Southern roots, electric folk and preening glam rock." His sound also features elements from alternative country and Americana.
Craft cites Bob Dylan as an influence over his distinctive vocal style. His other influences include David Bowie, the Beach Boys and Father John Misty.

# L'âtre périlleux

L'âtre périlleux (Old French L'atre perillous, English The Perilous Cemetery) is an anonymous 13th century poem written in Old French in which Gawain is the hero. The name comes from just one of the adventures Gawain takes part in. Forced to spend the night in a chapel in a cemetery, he encounters a woman who has been cursed and is forced to spend the night with a devil each night. He defeats the devil and liberates her. The story draws on influences from other Arthurian romances, such as those of Raoul de Houdenc and Chrétien de Troyes.

## Plot

A knight (later named as Escanor) takes a woman from King Arthur's court and defies any knight to take her back. Kay initially pursues him but is defeated. Gawain is distracted when he goes after him when he sees three women crying. They are lamenting the death of 'Gawain', their story is confirmed by a valet who has had his eyes gouged out.
Gawain leaves and, unable to find shelter, takes shelter in a chapel in the middle of a cemetery. It is revealed this is the 'perilous' cemetery. There he meets a woman who has unwittingly done a deal with a devil and, in order to have her released, Gawain battles and kills it.
Gawain takes the woman with him in his pursuit of Escanor, who he finds and kills, and takes both women back to the court of King Arthur. He leaves again. In a forest, he meets Raguidel, Espinogre, Cadrès and Cadrovain. Cadrès is crying because of his love for a woman, but in order to win her, he must defeat twenty knights in battle. They defeat the twenty knights between them.
Tristan invites them all to his castle, where Gawain finally learns the truth of his apparent death. Two knights loved two sisters. They, however, professed to love Gawain, despite having never met him. Gomeret and l'Orgueilleux Fée went in search of Gawain and, finding a knight wearing almost identical armor, killed him. Gawain tracks them down and defeats them both in battle. They return to Arthur's court where several marriages take place.
A plot summary in French, written by Gaston Paris, is available in Histoire littéraire de la France, tome 30, 1888 (see below).

# Beautiful jay

The beautiful jay (Cyanolyca pulchra) is a species of bird in the crow and jay family Corvidae. It is closely related to the azure-hooded jay, and the two species are considered sister species. The species is monotypic, having no subspecies. The specific name for the beautiful jay, pulchra, is Latin for "beautiful".
It is found in Colombia and Ecuador, where its habitat includes humid montane forest and cloud forest. It can also be found around clearings and in secondary forest, but it is less common there. It often associates with watercourses and marshy areas within the forests. It ranges between 900–2,300 m (3,000–7,500 ft) above sea-level, but is most common between 1,400–1,800 m (4,600–5,900 ft).
The beautiful jay is 27 cm (11 in) long and in the male predominantly cyan-blue, becoming sky-blue almost to white from the neck to the forehead,. It has a black mask on the face meeting up with the dark -grey across the breast. The legs and bill are black. The female resembles the male but the upperparts have a brownish tinge, and juvenile birds have more brown on the plumage and are duller. It makes a range of calls, including a repeated "chew=chew-chew", clicks and whistles.
Little is known about the beautiful jay's behaviour. The species forages in the understory and is generally inconspicuous. Only one nest has been described so far, it is a cup constructed with sticks and decorated on the outside with moss and lined with thin plant fibres. The eggs are green with small brown blotches; in the only nest found so far the clutch size was two eggs. The chicks fledged 24 days after hatching.
It is becoming rare due to habitat loss. The species is uncommon and dependent upon primary forest. It is also sensitive to disturbance.
