Mary Byrne later Mary O'Connell (1850 – 19 October 1936) was an Irish woman considered to be the chief witness of the apparition at Knock, County Mayo.

Life
Mary Byrne was born in 1850, the eldest daughter of the three children of Dominick and Margaret Byrne (née Bourke). Byrne was one of 15 people who witnessed an unusual sight at the gable end of the church on 21 August 1879, later the site of the Knock Shrine. She was brought there at 8:15pm by the housekeeper of the parish priest, Mary McCloughlin. Upon her arrival, Byrne saw three figures hovering 2 feet in the air, and was told by McCloughlin that two of the figures were the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Joseph. Byrne identified the third figure of Saint John the Evangelist, as he bore a resemblance to a statues at a church in Lecanvey, near Westport, County Mayo. The witnesses claimed that it was raining heavily, but that no rain hit the area in which the apparitions stood. Byrne went to nearby houses, and brought the rest of the group of 15 to witness the apparition, including her siblings, Dominick and Margaret, and her mother. The parish priest, Archdeacon Bartholomew Cavanagh, refused to attend the site as he did not believe his housekeeper's claims. The story of the apparition at Knock spread, with Byrne being considered the chief witness to it. In 1880, on the first anniversary of the vision, Byrne took part in a commemorative procession carrying a banner of the Virgin Mary. After the apparition, all the witnesses gave testimony to a commission of inquiry into the event, which took place just 6 weeks after the apparition. Described as "intelligent, forthcoming, earnest, and truthful", Byrne, along with her fellow witnesses, was deemed credible.

Byrne married James O'Connell on 1 July 1882. He was from a local village, Becan. The couple had five sons and a daughter. Two of their sons, Dominick and Patrick, became policemen, Patrick in Chicago and Dominick in Belfast with the Royal Irish Constabulary. After she was widowed in 1926, Byrne lived near Knock with James, her eldest son. Many of the pilgrims to Knock would visit the house to touch her. Byrne insisted that when she closed her eyes and opened them again, she could see the vision. In 1932, she gave a deposition and did not waver from her previous testimony. She signed a sworn statement on 27 January 1936 affirming what she witnessed at Knock. She was examined as part of the second commission of inquiry into Knock in August 1936, and is reported to have impressed them with her clear recollection, stating "I am clear about everything I have said and I make this statement knowing I am going before my God." Byrne died on 19 October 1936, and is buried beside her husband in Knock cemetery.

The Pakistan Land Port Authority (PLPA) is a government-backed Authority that seeks to enhance trade operations at border regions, benefiting the business community, including exporters and importers. With assistance from the Asian Development Bank (ADB), the initiative aims to modernize Pakistan's external border, fostering legitimate trade and improving bilateral and transit trade with Afghanistan and Central Asian Republics (CARs). The ultimate goal is to deter illegal trade and facilitate smoother cross-border transactions.

History
In December 2012, former Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf granted preliminary approval for the establishment of the authority, aiming to streamline the movement of goods, vehicles, and passenger traffic across borders with neighboring countries. The project is aligning with the three-year strategic trade policy framework devised by the Ministry of Commerce. The primary functions of the PLPA were to develop policies and act as a coordinating entity for various government agencies involved in cross-border trade facilitation.

Maria Polack (31 January 1787 – 8 January 1849) was an English Jewish novelist and educator. Her father, Ephraim Polack, was a prominent member of the Great Synagogue of London, and her niece (or perhaps daughter), Elizabeth Polack, was the first Jewish woman melodramatist in England.

In 1830 Polack published by subscription the two-volume anti-romance Fiction without Romance, or The Locket Watch, which focuses on the importance of female education and respecting religious and class differences. The novel depicts a gentile family in Devonshire, a member of whom, Eliza Desbro, encounters a sympathetic Jewish family after discovering her status as a bastard. The one-hundred and twenty subscribers to Polack's book included John Braham (two copies), Mrs Nathan Rothschild (five copies), and members of the Goldsmid family (six copies).

The Rudolf-Oetker-Halle (ROH) is the concert hall of Bielefeld, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It was built from 1928 to 1930 after designs by Düsseldorf architects Tietmann & Haake, opened on 31 October 1930. The listed monument is mostly in the original state and has excellent acoustics. The hall has been managed by the Theater Bielefeld from 2018. It is the home of the Bielefelder Philharmoniker.

History

Planning and building
Richard Kaselowsky, an entrepreneur, and mayor  had the first official conversation about a concert hall for Bielefeld on 14 February 1925. Shortly afterwards, the Oetker company confirmed it was ready to build a concert hall, to be named after Rudolf Oetker. Stapenhorst proposed a municipal property west of the Bürgerpark. It was inspected on 15 April 1926 by all interested, from Oetker, the municipal government, the Musikverein and the municipal orchestra, who accepted the concept. The hall was designated for music and other cultural events such as lectures and conventions, but political events were not permitted. A competition requested entries from architects from northwestern Germany. A large concert hall for 1,400 listeners, with a podium for 300 singers and 100 musicians, was to be built and a chamber music hall for 400 listeners. Design requests included a simple and decent form, and good acoustics in both halls. The competition resulted in 113 entries.

The jury included German Bestelmeyer, professor of architecture in Munich, and Heinrich Tessenow, professor in Berlin, , professor of acoustics at the Technische Hochschule Hannover, who served later as advisor throughout the building phase. Oetker was represented by Lina Oetker, the wife of the founder, and Ida Kaselowsky, the widow of Rudolf Oetker who fell in World War I. Oberbaurat Friedrich Schultz, leading the municipal building administration, was on the jury, as well as architect Bernhard Kramer representing the mayor, and Wilhelm Lamping. The jury decided for the proposal of the Düsseldorf architects . The technical supervision rested with the municipal Stadtbauamt. The Bauantrag was ready in June 1928. The hall was opened on 31 October 1930.

21st century
The listed monument is mostly in the original state and has excellent acoustics. In 2004, it was changed temporarily to serve as the stage of the Theater Bielefeld for two years while the theatre building was renovated. These changes were reverted afterwards.

The Rudolf-Oetker-Halle is the concert hall of Bielefeld and its region, playing music of many genres, performed by both international soloists and local groups. The hall has been managed by the Theater Bielefeld from 2018. It is the home of the . Its architecture and acoustics make it a centre of cultural life in Bielefeld.

Pharmacists for Life International (PFLI) is an international pro-life organization advocating the rights of pharmacists who refuse to fill or dispense prescriptions for artificial, hormonal, or emergency contraception to "protect the rights of employees who hold religious beliefs". PFLI holds that no "employee should be forced to choose between their livelihood and their conscience". In the United States, at least six states have such conscience clauses for personnel in medical-related fields.

PFLI President Karen Brauer was fired in 1996 from a Kmart pharmacy in Delphi, Ohio for refusing to fill birth control prescriptions. The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) represented Brauer and filed suit against Kmart in U.S. District Court in Cincinnati in August 1999. In January 2001, the court refused Kmart's request to dismiss the suit, ruling that Brauer's case could go forward under Ohio's conscience law.  On April 16, 2001, in an appearance on Fox News's The O'Reilly Factor, Brauer acknowledged that she did not directly decline or refuse to fill the prescription but, rather, lied to the customer by saying the pharmacy was out of stock of the contraceptive in question (Micronor), which Brauer holds is designed to "terminate a human life that has already begun". When the customer learned the truth she complained to the store's management, which led to the incident which in turn resulted in Brauer's lawsuit.

Mighty Lak a Goat is a 1942 Our Gang short comedy film directed by Herbert Glazer. It was the 209th Our Gang short (210th episode, 121st talking short, 122nd talking episode, and 41st MGM produced episode) that was released. The title is a reference to the 1901 song, "Mighty Lak' a Rose".

Plot
The gang tries to clean off their clothes after being splattered with mud accidentally by a passing motorist. A unique cleaning solution devised by Froggy works beautifully, but with one major drawback: The stuff has a terribly pungent odor. Froggy tells the gang that they would get used to the smell. They do get used to the bad odor to the point of being oblivious to it. The kids manage to empty out a bus trying to board it.

They walk to school and get thrown out of the classroom due to their smell. Then, being free from school, the gang goes to see a movie called Don't Open That Door at the theater. The movie-house cashier notices their smell, but they head into the auditorium. Then even the actors on the screen cannot stand the smell and stop performing. They finally get removed from the theater and remove their clothes behind a tree.
