The Democratic Karen Buddhist Army - Brigade 5 (; abbreviated DKBA-5), also known as the Democratic Karen Benevolent Army (; abbreviated DKBA) and the Klo Htoo Baw Battalion by the Burmese government, is a Karen Buddhist insurgent group in Myanmar. The group was led by Bo Nat Khann Mway, also known as "Saw Lah Pwe", until his death in 2016.

The DKBA-5 split from the original Democratic Karen Buddhist Army in 2010 and is loosely affiliated with the Karen National Union. They have also worked with the Arakan Army.

During the 2010 general election, the DKBA-5 attacked government troops and security forces in Myawaddy Township, Kayin State. The group signed a ceasefire agreement with the government on 3 November 2011, though they have not agreed to disarming, unlike their DKBA predecessors in 2010.

Until August 2005, Britain in Europe was the main British pro-European pressure group.  Despite connections to Labour and the Liberal Democrats, it was a cross-party organisation with supporters from many different political backgrounds.  Initially founded to campaign for a “Yes” vote for the euro, it then progressed to support a “Yes” vote for the referendum on the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe.

The organisation was launched in 1999 by Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, Kenneth Clarke, Michael Heseltine and Charles Kennedy. In 2003, the organisation formally linked itself with the Brussels-based, pro-European, international organisation European Movement.

The director of Britain in Europe was Simon Buckby and later Lucy Powell. The director of communications was the Scottish Liberal Democrat politician Danny Alexander.

On 17 August 2005, the group was wound up following the French and Dutch "No" votes on the proposed European Constitution. Its resources were turned over to the European Movement.

A successor pro-EU campaign, founded in 2012, is British Influence.

Pumpkin, Powder, Scarlet & Green is the third album released by the 60's pop group The American Breed, released in the summer of 1968. This album was not as successful as their first two efforts, but the album did manage to have three modest hit singles: "Cool It (We're Not Alone)", "Ready, Willing and Able" (#84), and a cover version of The Troggs' "Anyway That You Want Me" (#88). Unfortunately, this album marked a beginning in decline of the group's popularity.

Venues
The centerpieces of the complex are the Charlotte Metro Credit Union Amphitheatre and The Fillmore Charlotte, two entertainment venues managed by Live Nation.

Charlotte Metro Credit Union Amphitheatre
The Charlotte Metro Credit Union Amphitheatre seats 5,000 people, including 2,000 reserved seats and a festival lawn that can accommodate up to 3,000 people. It opened in June 2009. When it opened, it took most of the major acts that had previously played at the Palladium at Carowinds.

Originally known as simply the "Uptown Amphitheatre," it has also been known as the Road Runner Mobile Amphitheatre.

The Fillmore Charlotte
The Fillmore Charlotte opened in June 2009, shortly after the amphitheatre opened next door.

Boris Mikhailovich Ledkovsky (Бори́с Миха́йлович Ледко́вский; 9 May 1894 in Agrafenovka, Don Host Oblast — 6 August 1975 in Jordanville, New York) was a Russian-American composer of Church music and father of composer Alexander Ledkovsky.

Life
Ledkovsky was born near Novocherkassk in 1894 to Protopriest Mikhail and Sophia Ledkovsky. He studied at the Theology School in Novocherkassk, in the Royal School in Rostov-on-Don and at the Moscow Conservatory with Alexander Kastalsky.

He directed at the St. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral in Sofia, Bulgaria; in Paris and in Berlin parishes and cathedrals. In 1937 Ledkovsky formed in Germany the all-male a cappella ensemble "Black Sea Cossacks Choir".

Ledkovsky married in 1943 to Marina V. Fasolt. With her, he fathered four children: Alexander (also a Church musician of note), Dimitri, Tatiana, and Michael. He emigrated with his family to the United States in 1951.

He was a prolific arranger and composer of Russian Orthodox Church music in the Moscow School style, relying heavily on traditional chant as well as austere harmonization forms.

From 1952 to 1975 he served as director of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia (ROCOR) Synod Cathedral Choir of New York.

Boris Ledkovsky died of lung cancer on 6 August 1975, and was buried in Jordanville, New York at the Holy Trinity Monastery.

Baree, Son of Kazan is a 1918 American silent film based on the 1917 adventure novel of the same name by writer James Oliver Curwood. The film was directed by David Smith, the brother of Albert E. Smith, one of the founders of Vitagraph studio. Nell Shipman, an influential female actress and producer, stars in the film. In 1925, David Smith produced a new film based on this novel, starring Anita Stewart.

An incomplete or abridged version of the film survives.

Plot 
As described in a 1918 film magazine, McTaggart (Garcia), a factor of the Lac Bain trading post, is infatuated by Nepeese (Shipman), daughter of trapper Perriot (Rickson), a trapper, but is rejected by the girl. On his journey to Perriot's cabin, he trapped a wolfdog pup, whose enmity he aroused by his poor treatment.

Nepeese befriends the animal, which she names Baree. McTaggart visits and, stung by the girl's continued rejection, attacks her. Baree springs to her defense but is shot by the factor. Nepeese's father Pierrot returns and grapples with McTaggart but is shot to death. Nepeese flees and, pursued by McTaggart, jumps over a cliff.

Baree, abandoned, wanders the north country, but has not forgotten his hatred for McTaggart. The factor traps the wolfdog again, now grown, and leaves it to die. Baree is rescued by outlaw Jim Carvel (Whitman). Homesick, Baree leads his new friend to his former home and is overjoyed to find Nepeese. Learning that she has returned, McTaggart enters her tent at midnight. The wolfdog attacks and kills him, avenging the wrongs done.

Cast 
 Nell Shipman as Nepeese
 Gayne Whitman as Jim Carvel
 Al Ernest Garcia as 'Bush' McTaggart
 Joe Rickson as Perriot

Reception 
Curwood's adventure books were popular and films based on them were well received.

But in this period, city and state film censorship boards often made cuts before allowing screening of films within their jurisdictions. Like many American films of the time, Baree, Son of Kazan was subject to restrictions and cuts that reduced the violence between the men, attacks on Nepeese, and the sexual suggestiveness of the factor toward her.

For example, the Chicago Board of Censors cut, in Reel 2, the intertitle "I guess I'm about through with you"; and made numerous cuts in Reel 4: all but the first and last fight scenes between McTaggart and Nepeese, where he suggestively leers at her; reduces the length by half of the fight scenes between men, cuts the shooting of Perriot, cut all struggle scenes except first and last, the intertitle "From now on you belong to me", and the arson scene.
