A Ma Zone is an album by the group Zap Mama, released in 1999. The group supported the album with a North American tour. The first single was "Rafiki".

Production
Produced by frontwoman Marie Daulne, the album was recorded in part in the United States; Daulne was influenced by techno. The group, which included Daulne's sister, Anita, sang in Swahili and French, among other languages.

Manu Dibango played saxophone on "'Allo 'Allo". Black Thought rapped on "Rafiki". Speech also appeared on the album.

Critical reception

The Washington Post noted that "actual drums and bass ... now underpin the group's sound, but this album shifts the emphasis back toward interwoven female voices." Entertainment Weekly praised the "strong central voice—main Mama Marie Daulne—anchoring a rare album that’s both global and personal." The Chicago Tribune thought that A Ma Zone "taps into electronica, funk and folk with an inspired, gimmick-free dexterity."

Spin determined that "at points, the gorgeously arranged vocal interplay suggests pan-rap paradise." The Calgary Herald concluded that "Zap Mama has lost a little of its originality, a little of its uniqueness—or perhaps its funky sound is simply more familiar in the global musical melting pot." Newsday stated that the "sound is an ethereal tumble of synthesizers and other instruments, anchored by muscular, percussive beats."

AllMusic wrote that "breakbeats, jazzy upright bass, and turntable manipulation are now a part of the mix—a mix that was already rich with European and West African influences."

Gubernatorial elections were held in Gagauzia on 22 March 2015. Irina Vlah was elected Governor (Başkan) with 51% of the vote. She subsequently resigned from parliament upon becoming Governor in April.

Campaign
In 2014, before running for governor, Irina Vlah left the Communist faction in Parliament, protesting that the party's national leadership was betraying pro-Russian voters. She was also one of the initiators of a movement that led to the 2015 referendum for Gagauzia to join the Russian-led Eurasian Economic Union. During the 2015 campaign Russian celebrities and deputies of the Russian State Duma publicly backed Vlah; in response the Moldovan government accused Russia of meddling in the election and threatened to ban those involved from entering the country. Ukraine reinforced its western border adjacent to Gagauzia upon the victory of Vlah, a pro-Russian candidate, only a year after the annexation of Crimea and amidst the ongoing war against Russian-backed forces in its eastern provinces.

Vlah herself claimed that she faced opposition due to her status as the only female gubernatorial candidate, and that her electoral triumph represented a victory against "patriarchal stereotypes".

All candidates ran as independents. However, Vlah ran with the support of the Party of Socialists. Valerii Ianioglo was supported by United Gagauzia, whilst Nicolai Dudoglo was backed by the Democratic Party, the Equality Movement and New Gagauzia.

Two candidates, Serghei Buzadji and Oleg Caici, withdrew from the elections. Buzadji subsequently gave his support to Vlah, whilst Caici supported Dudoglo.

Boyd Albert Raeburn (October 27, 1913 – August 2, 1966) was an American jazz bandleader and bass saxophonist.

Career
He was born in Faith, South Dakota, United States. Raeburn attended the University of Chicago, where he led a campus band. He gained his earliest experience as a commercial bandleader at Chicago's World Fair (1933–1934). For the rest of the decade, he worked in dance bands, sometimes leading them.

In the next decade, the group passed through swing before becoming identified with the bop school. His later big band, which was active c. 1944-1947, performed arrangements that were often comparable to those used by Woody Herman and the "progressive jazz" of Stan Kenton during the same period. The compositions arranged by George Handy were the most contemporary, utilizing dissonance somewhat in the manner of Igor Stravinsky. Johnny Richards joined in 1947, following Handy and stayed for a year writing 50 compositions.

Later life and death
Raeburn's second wife was the singer Ginny Powell, for whom he wrote "Rip Van Winkle". The couple married in 1946, had two children. As well as singing with her husband's group, Powell also sang with Harry James and Gene Krupa. Raeburn left music in the mid-1950s. Powell died in Nassau in the Bahamas in 1959 from meningitis; the couple had moved there. He settled in New Orleans and ran a furniture store.

Raeburn died from a heart attack in 1966 in Lafayette, Louisiana, aged 52. Boyd Raeburn's first wife was Lorraine Anderson, with whom he had one child; the union ended in divorce. His son with Powell, Bruce Boyd Raeburn of New Orleans, was the curator of the William Ransom Hogan Archive of New Orleans Jazz at the Tulane University in New Orleans until December 2017.

The Spaldingas ("dwellers of the Spald") were an Anglian tribe that settled in an area known as the Spalda. This divided the fens and marshes of East Anglia in what is now the South Holland part of Lincolnshire. As well as establishing the town of Spalding, first mentioned in a charter by King Æthelbald of Mercia to the monks of Crowland Abbey in 716, they also gave their name to area of Spalding Moor and the village of Spaldington in East Yorkshire.

A tribe living in "Spalda" are mentioned in the Tribal Hidage (7th century). Eilert Ekwall regarded this name as etymologically obscure. He suggested that the tribe may have brought this name (Spaldas) from the Continent where there may have been a corresponding place-name. It would presumably be related to the unrecorded Anglo-Saxon  (to cleave) (OHG ) so the meaning of the noun would be "cleft" or "ravine". However, as there are no ravines in the fenland, all of the above should be treated with caution. Caitlin Green has suggested that the Spaldingas were of mixed Anglo-Saxon and Brittonic origin, due to a significant concentration of British Celtic place names in their territory.
 
The Spaldingas may have retained their administrative independence within the Kingdom of Mercia into the late 9th century, when Stamford became one of the Five Boroughs of the East Midlands under Danish control.

Santa Maria is a medieval church in the comune of Uta, Sardinia, Italy.

The exact date of construction is unknown, although it is generally assigned to the mid-12th century by monks from the Abbey of St. Victor in Marseille, perhaps on the ruins of a pre-existing structure. It is an example of Provençal and Tuscan Romanesque styles' influence on the local medieval architecture  (at the time the area was under the influence of the Republic of Pisa).

The oldest known mention of the church is in a 1363 document, by which king Peter IV of Aragon switched it from the Knights Hospitaller to the Order of Sant Jordi d'Alfama. The edifice was later held by the Franciscans, who, in the late 16th century, gave it to the archdiocese of Cagliari.

Description
The exterior is built in limestone and sandstone, with parts in marble and basalt. The walls feature pilasters at the corners, and are divided by lesenes among which are Lombard bands  (triple in the façade and double at the sides and in the apse area). The Lombard  bands are characterized by bases with various sculptures of human and animal figures. 

The main façade, pointing westwards, has a flat central bell tower and is divided into four levels by frames. The lower part is in turn divided into three sections: the middle one houses the portal, which is surmounted by a rounded arch in two colors and a finely sculpted motif in the frame. The upper section has a small double mullioned window.

The church has a nave and two aisles with wooden ceilings, separated by round arches; these are supported by columns from older Roman edifices. The capitals are instead contemporary of the church, aside from two (including one acting as holy water font). The presbytery is elevated and accessed by two steps. Under the high altar are two sculpted lions, which were originally placed at the sides of the façade. The presbytery ends in a semicircular apse. Light is provided by two double mullioned windows in the eastern and western walls and by single mullioned windows in the main walls and the apse.

Literary significance and criticism
On the Divide was Cather's first story to be published in a national magazine. In a 1938 letter to Edward Wagenknetch, Willa Cather admitted that On the Divide was retouched by one of her professors and submitted for publication without her consent.

The story bears similarities with O Pioneers!. Moreover, it has been noted that Cather's spare style parallels the harshness of the landscape.
