What If (Jason Derulo song)
"What If" is the fourth single released by American singer Jason Derulo on his self-titled debut album. The single was first released in the UK on July 26, 2010, where it peaked at number 12, marking Derulo's fourth consecutive top-20 hit in the country.
Chart performance
"What If" debuted on the UK Singles Chart at number 40 on July 17, 2010, following the release of the accompanying music video. The single also charted at number 18 on the UK R&B Chart that same week. The following week, the single rose 21 places to number 19, marking Derulo's fourth top-20 single in the UK. Then the following week it rose again to number 12, marking Derulo's fourth top-15 single in the UK. On the same week it rose to number 5 on the UK R&B Chart, marking his fourth top five on the R&B Chart hit
member 27, 2010, "What If" debuted at number 76 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Music video
The music video premiered on July 12, 2010, on the music channel program The Official UK Top 40. It was revealed later that week that Ethan Lader was the director for the video. The plot of the video appears to have been inspired by the movie The Butterfly Effect.
The music video begins with Derulo and his girlfriend (actress Laura Alexandra Grau) moving in together, Derulo takes a diamond engagement ring out of the nightstand and puts it in his pocket as she comes into the room. She leaves to get the last box from the moving truck. While walking across the street, a Camry driver who is distracted by texting nearly hits her. Derulo, hearing the skid from the car, runs from the house and towards her to push her out of the way of the car. As he reaches her, the video freezes. A clock on the nightstand begins to tick slower until it eventually stops, then begins going backwards. Time begins to go in reverse, Derulo and his girlfriend's relationship is shown as if the video is being rewound. When the video shows their first meeting, time begins to go forward again. This time, as he walks past her, he does not stop and talk to her. He looks back at her before he continues walking. She disappears from his memories and from a picture. The video ends back on the street, as the car is about to hit his girlfriend, she disappears as does the moving truck and the car continues moving.

بوابة أليكسيفسكي

بوابة أليكسيفسكي ، هي نصب الهندسة العسكرية، المدخل الجنوبي الرئيسي السابق إلى قلعة آزوف التي تعود للقرن الخامس عشر. تاريخ البوابات من فترة لاحقة إلي القرن السابع عشر إلى الثامن عشر. مع السور والخندق تشكل الجزء الوحيد الذي نجا حتى اليوم من الحصن. المكان يدخل في قائمت البنايات المحمية في روسيا.
تاريخ
قلعة أزوف التي بناها الأتراك، إحتلها الروس في عام 1696 تحت حكم بطرس الأكبر ، رجعت رسميا ملكا لروسيا بعد معاهدة القسطنطينية ، التي أبرمت بين روسيا وتركيا. في القرن الثامن عشر، المهندسون العسكريون الروس بقيادة لافال النمساوي إعادو بناء أحد عشر بابًا، بما في ذلك ألكسيفسكي.
في البداية، كانت بوابة ألكسيفسكي مصنوعة من الخشب، ولكن في عام 1801 إلي عام 1805 ، تم إعادة بنائها بالحجر. في عام 1935 أجريت الحفريات الأثرية على أراضي قلعة أزوف من قبل المكتب الإقليمي لحماية الآثار في روستوف. في ذلك الوقت، تم تدمير قلعة أزوف بالكامل، ومن بوابة أليكسيفسكي لم يكن هناك سوى جدارين متوازيين من الحجر. في عملية الترميم، حاول المؤرخون والمهندسون المعماريون إعطاء بوابة أليكسيفسكي مظهرها الأصلي. و على جدران البوابة هناك العديد من اللوحات التذكارية.

Bermuda Blob

Bermuda Blob is the name given to two globsters that washed ashore on Bermuda in 1988 and 1997. Originally thought to be the remains of a cryptid, analysis proved the blobs to be the remains of whales.
1988
The first Bermuda Blob was found by Teddy Tucker, a fisherman and treasure hunter, in Mangrove Bay in May 1988. Tucker described the blob as "2½ to 3 feet thick ... very white and fibrous ... with five 'arms or legs,' rather like a disfigured star." Samples of the specimen were analysed in 1995 and it was suggested that these were from a poikilothermic sea creature, either a large teleost (bony fish) or an elasmobranch (shark or ray). Subsequent reanalysis of this specimen by the same team, however, using advanced genetic techniques not previously available, confirmed that it was actually the remains of a whale.
1997
Bermuda Blob 2 was found in January 1997. Analysis of samples in 2004 suggests that Bermuda Blob 2 was a large mass of adipose tissue from a whale.

Jocelyne Blouin

Jocelyne Blouin (17 October 1950 – 27 May 2019) was a Québécoise meteorologist and weather presenter. She worked for Canadian French-language public broadcaster Société Radio-Canada from 1978 to 2011, where she was known for her regular weather bulletins on the news.
Biography
Education
Born 17 October 1950, Jocelyne Blouin obtained an honours degree in physics from the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM) in 1973. She was then hired by Environment Canada and followed the Operational Weather Training Course. She obtained a certificate in meteorology from UQAM in 1974. Blouin completed the academic part of a master's degree in meteorology in 1986.
Career
Blouin's first position with the Meteorological Service of Canada (MSC) was in 1974 in Edmonton, Alberta. During these early years, she taught Sea Scout weather courses and participated in the morning broadcast of CHFA Radio-Canada.
In 1976 the MSC repatriated her to Montreal. In 1978 Radio-Canada Television offered her a part-time position as a weather presenter. She resigned from the MSC in July 1980 to devote herself full-time to this new job.
In September 2005 Radio-Canada removed Blouin from the camera due to a "period of transition and testing". Several complaints were lodged in this respect and Blouin returned to her position the following week.
In June 2011 Blouin announced her departure from Le Téléjournal to retire after 33 years with Radio-Canada. She was replaced by Pascal Yiacouvakis. Over the course of her career, she presented nearly 15,000 weather bulletins.
On 12 July 2016, Blouin and Jean-Charles Beaubois, the former director of Belgian Radio-Television's weather department, launched the Blisly app. This smartphone program offers personalized health risk indexes from aggravating weather factors and is designed to help people suffering from non-food allergies, joint pain, respiratory or heart problems, or migraines.
Jocelyne Blouin died from cancer on 27 May 2019.
Honours
Jocelyne Blouin was the recipient of many national and international awards. In 1993 she received the Alcide-Ouellet Award, named after a Canadian meteorologist. At the International Weather Festival, she received the Best Weather and Environment Report in 1999, the 2000 Scientists Award, and the Best Weather and Environment Report in 2002.

Buurmadow

Buurmadow
Osman Aw Mohamud, more commonly known as Buurmadow is king of Somaliland and Somalia from Somaliland.
Biography
Mohamud was born in 1964 in El Afweyn, in the Sanaag region of Somaliland to a family of nomads, with his father being a livestock trader. He belongs to the Musa Abokor sub-division of the Habr Je'lo Isaaq.
He graduated from University in 1986 where he studied law. He later joined the Somali Salvation Democratic Front, a rebel group with the goal of overthrowing Siad Barre's regime shortly after. In 1984 he subsequently joined the Somali National Movement, another rebel group with a similar goal. After the conclusion of the war and throughout the 1990s Mohamud was a business man.
In 2000, he was crowned a boqor, or king in Somali. Mohamud is known for his efforts at mediating regional conflicts, particularly among clans in Somaliland. He earned fame as a mediator between Abdullahi Yusuf, the first and founding president of the Puntland region in northern Somalia and Mohamud Muse Hersi in the dispute over the presidency in Puntland between 2002 and 2003. With the help of his mediation, a peace agreement that prevented Puntland from an all out civil war and which guaranteed its stability for the coming years was finally signed in May 2003. Mohamud has since then been considered a man with great influence and with good connections to the governments of both Somaliland and Puntland.
On 17 November 2011, he was arrested in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), visiting his wife who resides there while returning from a pilgrimage to Mecca. The government never offered formal charges against him, prompting Amnesty International to issue an alert on his behalf; the group later speculated that UAE had arrested him at the prompting of Somaliland authorities. Mohamud was released on 5 January 2012.
Upon returning to Somaliland on 15 March, Mohamud was arrested at the airport in Hargeisa. After forty days of detention, the local government charged him with what it termed "anti-national activity of a citizen abroad”, "subversive or anti-national propaganda" and "continuing offence" in response to a comment he had made while in the UAE criticizing a trip to China by President Ahmed Mahamoud Silanyo of Somaliland. On 8 July, these charges were dismissed and replaced by a charge of "insulting a public official", of which the judge found Mohamud guilty. Mohamud was subsequently sentenced to one year in prison for defamation, according to local law based on the colonial period British Somaliland penal code. Amnesty International responded by declaring Mohamud a prisoner of conscience, detained "for exercising his right to freedom of expression". On 18 July, the Somaliland government pardoned Mohamud, apparently in response to international pressure, and he returned to his home in Hargeisa.
