United Nations Security Council Resolution 1197
United Nations Security Council resolution 1197, adopted unanimously on 18 September 1998, after reaffirming its primary responsibility to maintain international peace and security, the Council addressed co-operation efforts with the Organisation of African Unity (OAU).
The Security Council considered the recommendations in a report by the Secretary-General Kofi Annan on "The causes of conflict and the promotion of durable peace and sustainable development in Africa" regarding the need for the United Nations to provide support and assistance to regional and subregional organisations in the area of conflict prevention. It recalled the provisions of Chapter VIII of the United Nations Charter to this effect.
The Secretary-General was invited to assist the OAU and African subregional organisations to establish logistics assessment teams and to determine the logistical and financial requirements of regional or subregional peacekeeping operations. He was also asked to further the development of a commonly accepted peacekeeping doctrine with Member States and share existing concepts of peacekeeping operations with the OAU and subregional organisations. They were also asked to establish logistics assessment teams. Partnerships between countries and regional organisations involved in peace operations were encouraged, and the Council welcomed a proposal by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to establish a "council of elders" within its "Mechanism for the Prevention, Management, Resolution of Conflict, Peacekeeping and Security" to facilitate mediation efforts and asked for preparations to be made towards its establishment.
In part II of the resolution, the Council endorsed the establishment of a United Nations Preventive Action Liaison Office in the OAU. It encouraged the enhancement of consultation and co-ordination between the United Nations, the OAU and subregional organisations. Finally, the Secretary-General was invited to, and subsequently asked to implement the following measures:
(a) adopt mechanisms to improve the flow of information between the United Nations, OAU and subregional organisations;
(b) develop common indicators for an early warning system and to share this among their field representatives and headquarters;
(c) arrange visits of staff between the United Nations, OAU and subregional organisations;
(d) arrange joint meanings on areas concerning early warning systems and prevention, with the aim of co-ordinating initiatives with existing and potential conflicts.

Emery B. Denny

Emery B. Denny
Emery Byrd Denny (November 23, 1892 – April 24, 1973) was an American jurist who served as an associate justice of the North Carolina Supreme Court from 1942 until 1962 and as chief justice of that court from 1962 until 1966.
Prior to his service on the court, he served as mayor of Gastonia from 1929 to 1937. In 1940, Denny managed the successful gubernatorial campaign of J. Melville Broughton and then served as chairman of the North Carolina Democratic Party.
In 1967, the retired chief justice chaired a state constitutional study commission, the work of which eventually led to the new Constitution of North Carolina of 1971.

Holguín Province

Holguín Province
Holguín is one of the provinces of Cuba, the third most populous after Havana and Santiago de Cuba. It lies in the southeast of the country. Its major cities include Holguín (the capital), Banes, Antilla, Mayarí, and Moa.
The province has a population of slightly over one million people. Its territory exceeds , 25 percent of which is covered by forest.
History
Christopher Columbus landed in what is believed to have been today's Holguín province on October 27, 1492. He declared that it was "the most beautiful land human eyes had ever seen".
The Holguín province was established in 1978, when it was split from the Oriente region.
Economy
Like much of Cuba, Holguín's economy is based around sugarcane, though other crops such as corn and coffee, as well as mining, are also large earners for the province.
A large nickel plus cobalt processing plant with shipping facilities was built in Moa, using foreign investment, much of it from Canada. Chromium, iron and steel plants dot the province as well.
Tourism has only recently begun to be developed, offering beach resorts in the outskirts of the region, with a number of hotels around the Guardalavaca area, Playa Esmeralda, Playa Yuraguanal, Playa Blanca, Playa Pesquero, and Cayo Saetia. The Cuchillas del Toa Biosphere Reserve, Sierra Cristal National Park and Alejandro de Humboldt National Park are partly located in the province. Gibara is a little visited historical port located west of the main Guardalavaca resorts. Recently a large number of tourists are reported to have visited the city and its rich culture and beauty. Direct flights to Canada and Europe from Holguin airport limit transfer time to around 1 hour to most resorts on the Costa Holguinera. Canadians and Europeans share the coral beaches with Cubans.
Municipalities
Holguín is divided into 14 municipalities:

Jordan has an embassy in Rabat and Morocco has an embassy in Amman.
History and modern relations
Modern relationship between Jordan and Morocco was established in 20th century, when Jordan gained independence from Britain and Morocco regained independence from France and Spain. For most of 20th century, both Jordan and Morocco had together faced turbulent turmoils within each nations, notably pan-Arabist movements, attempts from assassinate to overthrow the Governments in both countries and their secret ties with Israel. In spite of these hardships, however, King Hussein of Jordan and Hassan II of Morocco also overcame these turmoils at home. Two Kings were known for sharing a close and strong personal relationship, boosting alliance between two Royal families. Two Kings also died on the same year at 1999, and received mourners from global communities and homelands. Their sons, Abdullah II of Jordan and Mohammed VI of Morocco are also widely acclaimed celebrities in both countries.
In 2017, Abdullah II paid a visit to Morocco, received warm welcome from Mohammed VI. On 27 March 2019, Mohammed VI received King Abdullah II for a working visit in Casablanca.
Cooperations
Both countries, deemed to share close bond, share a very close cooperation ranged from political, economic to security ties. Two countries are also invited to join the Gulf Cooperation Council headed by Saudi Arabia, a fellow monarchy. The two nations also have a cautious relationship with Iran, which Jordan even voiced support to Morocco when Rabat cut tie with Tehran following accusations of Iran's support to Polisario in Western Sahara.
During the Qatar crisis, Jordan and Morocco try to refrain from siding with anyone, both want to consolidate their role as neutral players and even voiced to solve it diplomatically, which didn't satisfy Mohammed Bin Salman, the energetic Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia.

Les Clark

Les Clark
Leslie James "Les" Clark (November 17, 1907 - September 12, 1979) was an American animator and the first of Disney's Nine Old Men. Joining Disney in 1927, he was the only one to work on the origins of Mickey Mouse with Ub Iwerks.
Early life
Les Clark was born in Ogden, Utah in 1907, the eldest of 12 children to James Clark, a carpenter, and Lute Wadsworth. By 1910, the family lived in Salt Lake City and by 1920, they lived in Twin Falls, Idaho. By 1930, they lived in Los Angeles, where Les attended Venice High School. During high school, he worked a summer job at an ice cream shop near Walt Disney Studios in Hollywood. Walt and Roy Disney were frequent patrons at the shop, and Walt had once complimented Les on his lettering job of the menus. Eventually, Les got the courage to ask Walt for a job. He recalled Walt's reply:
...[Walt said] 'Bring some of your drawings in and let's see what they look like.' So, I copied some cartoons and showed them to Walt. He said I had a good line, and why don't I come to work on Monday.
Les reported to the studio the Monday after he graduated high school for a temporary position in 1927.
He and his wife Miriam had a son, Richard, and a daughter, Miriam.
Career at Disney Studio
Les started work at the studio first as a camera operator and doing ink and paint on the animations. He moved on to work under the guidance of Ub Iwerks, working on shorts in the Oswald the Lucky Rabbit series. During the development of the character Mickey Mouse, Clark was promoted to the position of inbetweener where he worked on a scene for the upcoming Steamboat Willie. Les was then promoted to animator and was tasked to work on the Silly Symphony The Skeleton Dance. After
Ub Iwerks left Disney, Clark was given the position as lead animator on Mickey Mouse. He continued honing his craft, attending art classes while working at the studio. As he improved, he was given the task of animating the Seven Dwarfs in the upcoming film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. In particular, Clark worked on the scene where Snow White dances with each of the Seven Dwarfs. He would go on to animate the iconic Disney characters Pinocchio, Cinderella, Alice and Tinker Bell.
Animation style
Clark was known for his skill in timing his animation to musical scores, as well as his ability to convey emotion in his work.
Death
Les Clark died of cancer in Santa Barbara, California on September 12, 1979.
