The phrase "all politics is local" is commonly used in United States politics. Variations of the phrase date back to 1932. Tip O'Neill, a former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, is most closely associated with this phrase, although he did not originate it.

Meaning and applicability 
Andrew Gelman argues that the "local" refers to the fact that politicians "need local skills to win the primary election that gets them into their safe seat, and they need backroom political skills in the state legislature to keep their safe seats every 10 years." Gelman also argues, citing data for elections since 1968, that politics is "less local than it used to be."

Example
Chris Matthews, former chief of staff to Tip O'Neill, wrote about the strategy adopted in the 1982 Congressional elections. O'Neill's seat was challenged by Massachusetts lawyer Frank L. McNamara, Jr., who had financed most of his campaign with money from oil interests in Oklahoma and Texas. O'Neill played up the connections in the media by passing out literature highlighting McNamara's fundraising in Texas.

Later during those elections, O'Neill introduced a $1-billion jobs bill to the table. House Republican Leader Robert H. Michel of Peoria, Illinois, opposed the bill, but O'Neill delivered an address broadcast in Peoria that showed how many infrastructure problems in Peoria would be fixed by the bill. Matthews wrote that "by hitting his rival where he lived, O'Neill translated a wholesale debate over national economic policy to the local, retail level."

Mercy Akuot Marang is a South Sudanese social activist and singer. She currently lives in Kenya.

Biography 
She was born in South Sudan and hails from the Dinka community of South Sudan. She performed well in school and aspired to become a lawyer. Mercy escaped from her parents at the age of just 15 when her parents willfully forced her to marry her own uncle who was much older than her. She left South Sudan in 2008 and initially got asylum in Uganda. However, her 56 year old uncle tracked her location in Kampala and she revealed that she had suffered physical violence, rape and unlawful detention from him. She later moved to Kenya in 2015 after escaping from her uncle and was admitted as an immigrant in the Kakuma Refugee camp in Kenya.

Career 
Although she had the ambition of becoming a professional lawyer, she pursued her career as a social worker and women's rights activist due to the circumstances she met at her young age. She also advocates against the child marriage as she herself had the experience of surviving the forced attempt of child marriage by her own parents.

She also serves as an ambassador for the refugees at the Kakuma Refugee camp in Kenya. She also currently serving as a volunteer with Danish Refugee Council for their women empowerment programme in the camp. In June 2018, she participated alongside fellow refugees at TEDxKakuma Camp which was historically the first ever TEDx event in the world to have been held in a refugee camp. During the 2018 TEDx event, she shared her experiences of how she escaped the child marriage and then later becoming a women's rights activist.

Mercy was chosen as one of the two musical artists under the FilmAid's Finding a Star project which was done in collaboration with Kenyan R&B musician Wyre. The project was also known as Making Stars-Kakuma as the project was initiated with the support of Wyre who was interested in helping talented aspiring musicians in the Kakuma camp. It was revealed that Finding a Star project assisted Mercy to kick-start her professional musical career. She released her first official single titled Anavyonifanya in 2018.

In December 2020, she launched an album titled Bado Mapema (It's Still Early) alongside two other women refugees (Lisa Queen and Mlay) in the Kenyan camp. The album depicts the own harsh realities and experiences of Mercy and other women refugees.

In August 2021, she was listed as one of the seven African women activists who deserve a Wikipedia article by the Global Citizen, an international organisation and advocacy organisation.

Housing Bank of Rwanda (HBR), also known as Rwanda Housing Bank, was a commercial bank in Rwanda. Its name in French is Banque de l'Habitat du Rwanda SA (BHR). The bank was one of the commercial banks licensed by the National Bank of Rwanda, the national banking regulator.

History
The bank was opened in 1975, as a housing finance institution as well as a real estate developer. HBR was registered as a limited liability company. On 2 July 2004, the National Bank of Rwanda, the country's Central Bank, granted HBR a Provisional License to operate as a Housing Bank. The license was contingent upon the institution raising its share capital to the minimum of US$2.65 million, to comply with then current banking laws in Rwanda.

On 25 February 2005, the shareholders of Banque de l'Habiatat du Rwanda (BHR), held an Extra Ordinary General Meeting and decided to increase their share capital to the required minimum, to change their name to Housing Bank of Rwanda and to change their mission from a mortgage company/real estate developer to a Commercial Bank that specializes in Housing Finance.

Ownership
As of April 2010, the bank's stock was owned by the following corporate entities:

Branch network
As of April 2010, the bank maintained its headquarters at Avenue de la Justice, in the city of Kigali, Rwanda's capital. No other branches were known to exist at that time.

Takeover and liquidation
In April 2011, Rwanda Development Bank, known by its French symbols BRD, acquired a 100% controlling interest in Housing Bank of Rwanda. BRD is in the process of absorbing the assets, liabilities and staff of HBR. After re-organization, BRD will commence retail banking operations. In addition, it will begin underwriting mortgage products originated by other commercial banks in the country, in an attempt to increase home ownership in Rwanda. At the time of takeover, HBR's total assets were valued at about US$23.7 million (RWF:14 billion).

William Nicholls (1664–1712) was an English clergyman and theologian, known as an author on the Book of Common Prayer.

Life
He was the son of John Nicholls of Donington, now Dunton, Buckinghamshire. He was educated at St Paul's School under Thomas Gale, and went up with an exhibition to Magdalen Hall, Oxford, where he matriculated as a commoner on 26 March 1680. He later migrated to Wadham College, and graduated B.A. on 27 November 1683. On 6 October 1684 he was chosen a probationary fellow of Merton College, and proceeded M.A. 19 June 1688, B.D. 2 July 1692, and D.D. 29 November 1695.

Having taken holy orders about 1688, he became chaplain to Ralph Montagu, and in September 1691 rector of Selsey, near Chichester. He was also rector of Bushey, Hertfordshire, from 1691 to 1693, and in 1707 a canon of Chichester.

He suffered from poverty in later life. He was buried in the centre aisle of St Swithin's Church in London.

Works
Much of his life was spent in literary work. In 1711 he was editing John Selden's output.

Nicholls's major work was the Comment on the Book of Common Prayer, and Administration of the Sacraments, London, 1710, with a Supplement published separately in 1711. This book was published by subscription, and dedicated to Queen Anne. He did it unassisted and it cost him his health.

Another of Nicholls's publications, the Defensio Ecclesiæ Anglicanæ, London, 1707 and 1708, was written and published in Latin. An English translation by the author appeared in 1715. The book was meant to attract attention of foreigners to the formularies of the English church, and Latin copies were sent to the King of Prussia and to scholars on the continent. Correspondence resulted including letters from Daniel Jablonski, Benedict Pictet, Jean le Clerc, Johann Jacob Wettstein and others. Nicholls's views were contested and answered by James Peirce in Vindication of the Dissenters (London, 1718).

Nicholls's other works included:

 An Answer to an Heretical Book, called the Naked Gospel, 1691, against Arthur Bury. Printed with ‘A Short History of Socinianism.’
 A Practical Essay on the Contempt of the World, inscribed to his schoolfellow, Sir John Trevor, 1694.
 A Conference with a Theist, in five parts, 1696 (3rd edit., enlarged to 2 vols., in 1723).
 The Duty of Inferiours towards their Superiours, in five Practical Discourses, 1701.
 A Treatise of Consolation to Parents for the Death of their Children (on the occasion of the Duke of Gloucester's death), 1701.
 The Religion of a Prince (on the relinquishing of tenths and first-fruits by Queen Anne), 1704.
 A Paraphrase on the Common Prayer …, 1708.
 Historiæ Sacræ Libri vii., opus ex Antonii Socceii Sabellici Eneadibus concinnatum, 1710, and 1711.
 A Commentary on the first fifteen and part of the sixteenth Articles of the Church of England, 1712.
 A Defence of the Doctrine and Discipline of the Church of England (a translation of his Defensio Ecclesiæ Anglicanæ), 1715. These last two were posthumously published.

Per Carl Gustav Unckel (24 February 1948 – 20 September 2011) was a Swedish Moderate Party politician who served as Minister for Education from 1991 to 1994 and as Governor of Stockholm County from 2007 until his death in 2011.

He was born in Östergötland and was at one time chairman of the Moderate Youth League district there. He studied law in Uppsala 1968–71. In 1971, he was elected national chairman of the Moderate Youth League and served until 1976, when he was elected to the Riksdag for Östergötland.

In 1986, he became secretary general of the Moderate Party. He stayed in the post until 1991, when the Moderate Party won the election and Carl Bildt became Prime Minister of Sweden. Unckel was then appointed Minister of Education. In that position, he spearheaded the educational reforms that revolutionised the Swedish education system. Among other things, students were allowed to choose among the local schools.

After the loss in the election in 1994, Unckel became the party spokesman on labour policy. In 1998 he became chairman of the Committee on the Constitution and one year later he was appointed leader of the Moderate Party parliamentary group.

The election in 2002 was disastrous for the Moderate Party and several senior figures had to resign from the board of the party. Per Unckel was one of them. He was seen as a part of the old regime - the so-called "Bunker" around Carl Bildt, together with the likes of Anders Björk and Gunnar Hökmark. His old Moderate Youth League district, however, paid their respects by electing him honorary chairman. In 2003, he was appointed secretary-general of the Nordic Council of Ministers and retired from Swedish politics. He served until December 2006. He later served as the Chairman of the Governing Board of the European Humanities University. 

Unckel died on 20 September 2011 from cancer, aged 63.

Postgirobygget is a Norwegian rock band from Trondheim. Singer and songwriter Arne Hurlén, bass player and backing vocals Nicolai Hauan (new member in 2009), guitarist and backing vocals Nils Petter Time, keyboardist and harmonica player Øyvind Kolset, and drums, percussion and backing vocals Per Sarin Madsen.

Background
The band formed as the cover band The Pissed Off Boys for a student party in late 1994. They never really intended to play as a "proper" band with their own songs, but their live playings created such a passionate fan base that they kept going. As they eventually needed more material to play, the band started playing songs featured on vocalist Arne Hurlén's demo CDs. Realising they had become the "real" band they never intended, the band soon renamed themselves Postgirobygget.

They recorded their first album in 1996 with the title Melis.

Line-up
Arne Hurlén - guitarist and vocals (1996-)
Nicolai Hauan - bass and chorus (2009-)

Robert Kent Gooch (September 26, 1893 – May 22, 1982) was an American football player and track athlete. Gooch was a quarterback for the Virginia Cavaliers football team of the University of Virginia.  He was named a Rhodes Scholar, but the First World War interrupted his studies. During the war, Gooch served with the American Ambulance Corps with the French forces on the Somme front, and was awarded the Croix de Guerre. He is the namesake of the Robert Kent Gooch Scholarship, for second and third-year college students who have a record of outstanding academic achievement and a record of outstanding service to others. For many years Gooch was a political science professor at UVA, writing several books. He is buried at the University of Virginia Cemetery.  A named professorship of political science, the Robert Kent Gooch Professor of Politics, was established in his honor at the university, with Larry Sabato the incumbent as of 2018.

Early years
Gooch was born on September 26, 1893, in Roanoke to William Stapleton Gooch, a lawyer, and Mary Stuart Anderson. His ancestry was English and French; a descendant of Sir William Gooch, 1st Baronet. In 1895, the family moved to Louisa Court House, VA.

University of Virginia

Gooch played quarterback for Virginia from 1912 to 1914. He led the Cavaliers to an 8–1 record in 1914, when he was teammates with the likes of Buck Mayer and James L. White. One fellow said, "When Gooch took the ball he moved so fast that he seemed to be in four places at one time, and the referee tried to penalize Virginia for having 15 men on the field." Professor W. A. Lambeth of Virginia selected Gooch for his All-Southern team in 1914. He later returned as an assistant coach at his alma mater.

Dimethyl sulfite is a sulfite ester with the chemical formula (CH3O)2SO.

Dimethyl sulfite is used as an additive in some polymers to prevent oxidation.  It is also a potentially useful high energy battery electrolyte solvent.

Structure and conformation
The dimethyl sulfite molecule can adopt several conformations. The most stable is the GG conformer. Each C–O bond is gauche to the S=O bond, depicted below.

Preparation
Dimethyl sulfite is prepared from a 1:2 ratio of thionyl chloride and methanol. The reaction can be catalyzed by tertiary amine bases and likely proceeds via the chlorosulfinate (MeOS(O)Cl), this intermediate will exist only fleetingly in the presence of methanol and as such its decomposition to methyl chloride and sulfur dioxide (via the slower SNi mechanism) is not observed to any great extent.

The National Association of United Trades for the Protection of Labour was an early trade union federation in the United Kingdom, established in 1845.

No attempt had been made to co-ordinate the activities of trade unions in various industries across the country since the failure of the Grand National Consolidated Trades Union in 1834.  The idea to found the organisation was first proposed by the Chartist newspaper the Northern Star, and was then taken up by the United Trades of Sheffield, who lobbied the Member of Parliament Thomas Duncombe.  This encouraged the Central Association of London Trades to convene a preliminary meeting for trade unionists in the city, which called a national conference for Easter 1845, held at London's Parthenium.  The conference founded the Association, appointing Duncombe as President and editor of the Northern Star Joshua Hobson to the Central Committee.

Unlike the Grand National, which had aimed to rationalise the number of unions and encourage the formation of general unions, the Association's primary aim was to allow the existing unions to more effectively lobby Parliament for industrial reforms.

At its second conference, in July 1845, the Association formed a companion organisation, the National Association of United Trades for the Employment of Labour.  This promoted Robert Owen's concept of "union shops" - essentially producers' co-operatives.  It also aimed to resettle workers on the land, an ambition which mirrored the contemporary Chartist Land Plan, but one which never came to fruition.

From August 1848 until the following summer, the Association issued a weekly journal, the Labour League.  However, this was to prove the end of its period of high activity.  In 1852, Duncombe stood down as President, and was replaced by G. A. Fleming, the new editor of the Northern Star.  The Association continued to lobby Parliament, and finally saw some success with the passing of the Molestation of Workmen Act in 1859.  It then focussed on proposing a Conciliation Bill.  George Howell claimed that it was not dissolved until 1867, although George Odger claimed that its existence was "a perfect myth" by 1866, when the United Kingdom Alliance of Organised Trades was founded.
