Grusonia pulchella (Engelm.) H.Rob., also known as sagebrush cholla, is a tuberous species of opuntioid cactus from the Mojave Desert of central Nevada, eastern California, northwestern Arizona and western Utah in the United States. Grusonia pulchella has at various times been included in Opuntia or placed in a separate genus Micropuntia.

Habitat
Grusonia pulchella grows in gravelly alluvial fans, often above salt flats or alkali basins. Specimens can be locally common, although they are difficult to locate, often growing under other shrubs such as shadscale.

Description
Grusonia pulchella differs from other North American opuntioid cacti in having a geophytic habit, where above-ground growth dies back to the crown in adverse conditions, and resprouts under more favorable conditions. Authors have described the underground storage structure as a "tuberous root" or true tuber. The above-ground stems are variable, being cylindrical to globular. The areoles bear flexible yellow spines and white wool. Overall, the above-ground growth can often form a cushion-plant habit. The flowers are bright magenta, and the fruits are dehiscent. The seeds are unique, with a groove running along the hilar surface.

The men's 400 metres at the 2009 World Championships in Athletics was held at the Olympic Stadium on 18, 19 and 21 August.

The United States had a strong tradition in the event, with an American topping the Olympic 400 m podium every time since the 1988 Olympics. Similar to the 2007 World Championships, Jeremy Wariner and LaShawn Merritt were the clear favourites. However, on this occasion recent form favoured the Olympic champion Merritt instead of the reigning world champion Wariner. Both Americans were undefeated that season but Merritt held the world-leading time of 44.50 seconds. A gold or silver medallist outside of these two competitors seemed unlikely; Bahamian Chris Brown, Irishman David Gillick, Frenchman Leslie Djhone and the other two runners from the United States (Gil Roberts and Lionel Larry) were seen to be capable of a bronze at best.

On the first day, Ramon Miller surprised as the fastest qualifier in the heats, scoring a new personal best of 45 seconds. Tabarie Henry, Djhone and Renny Quow were the next fastest, and African record holder Gary Kikaya was most high-profile casualty of the first round, having been disqualified for a lane infraction.

Traces is the debut studio album of Filipino indie folk band The Ransom Collective which was released on May 20, 2017. The album contains 11 tracks featuring re-recorded versions of songs from their 2014 self-titled EP, namely: Hither, Run, Images, and Fools.

Settled, the lead single, was released on April 11, 2016, and was followed by Open Road which was released on December 4, 2016. A vinyl version was released on March 27, 2018 by indie label Offshore Music.

Background 
The band is known for its upbeat and cheerful sound, but frontman Kian Ransom states that Traces will be different as it will be darker compared to their self-titled EP. Lily and Kian also said that Traces will have a more complex sound. “More complex rhythms, transitions, and the occasional fusion of other genres...it’s always good to change it up a little. That means you’re growing as an artist,” says Kian. Traces is a testament to their maturity as musicians and complexity as songwriters, opting for a more diverse content.

The album would also be a very personal one for each of the members. Drummer Redd Claudio says, "You’ll find that each track is based on a separate experience, it’s just narrating those experiences. That for me, shows how personal it is in that sense." "[The album] is about our lives, heartbreak, the things that we celebrate, the things that we go through, happiness. Anything that we go through in our lives, that's what Traces is all about, and all the memories," said Jermaine.

The band was also trying to be unpredictable in their songwriting, especially with Traces. Jermaine Ochoa Peck says, "With the music industry in general, this wave of sound is different from how it sounded before. I think we also just rode that wave. People are starting to be more open to the different sound…indie folk. It’s not only us, there’s a lot of other bands, who are also getting into this kind of music as well."

Release 
The band officially released the album on May 20, 2017, and hosted an album launch at The Palace Pool Club in Bonifacio Global City with musical acts Tandems ’91, Tom’s Story, and Ourselves the Elves. Indie musician Reese Lansangan was originally scheduled to perform at the launch, but due to commitments with MCA Music's GetMusic Indie-Go, she wasn't able to join and was replaced instead by Tandems '91.

The Audi Type G is a passenger car produced by Audi between 1914 and 1923. It is Audi's smallest and least powerful pre-war car.

The vehicle had a four-cylinder two-block in-line engine with 2,084 cc of displacement with which developed a maximum of   at 1900 rpm. Power was transmitted to the rear wheels through a four-speed countershaft gearbox and a steel propeller shaft. A top speed of 65 km/h (40 mph) was claimed.   The mechanical foot brake worked directly on the propeller shaft. The car had a ladder frame and two leaf-sprung solid axles. It was available as a sports two-seater.

1,122 Type G Audis were built, making this the biggest selling Audi prior to the creation, in 1932, of the Auto Union.

Central Railway was a British company which proposed to build a new intermodal freight railway line, with a generous loading gauge, connecting the Channel Tunnel with the north of England, particularly Liverpool docks, using much of the trackbed of the former north-south Great Central Railway. The company argued that such a line could significantly cut road congestion by carrying lorries on flatbed rail trucks.

The company was formed in the late 1980s, and its proposals were controversial and faced opposition. The plans were rejected by the government in 1996 and again in 2003, largely because of doubts over financing its £8 billion cost, even though it was a private-sector project.

Route
The line would have run from the Liverpool Docks to Sheffield using the disused Woodhead Tunnel and then turned south via the Erewash Valley, joining the former Great Central Main Line (much of whose trackbed was still intact) south of Leicester. At a rebuilt Ashendon Junction it would have joined the Chiltern Main Line, running alongside it on new tracks, then paralleling the M25 motorway, entering a new tunnel between Leatherhead and Merstham and then running alongside existing railways via  to the Channel Tunnel terminal at Folkestone. An alternative route would have seen the line joining High Speed 1 to the tunnel, if the latter railway were to allow non-passenger trains.

Purpose
The line would carry goods lorries between the continent and the Midlands and north of England. It could also have helped facilitate railfreight connections between the north of England and the ports of Felixstowe and Southampton. Trains  long would carry up to 80 lorry trailers each, in the manner of American piggyback services. It would be operated by diesel locomotives, at least in the first instance, in order to save on electrification costs.

The promoters stated that lorries already made a modal interchange to go through the Channel Tunnel. The Central Railway scheme would simply make the interchange between points  or more apart, rather than  at present, saving haulage companies fuel and drastically reducing carbon emissions.

Financial backing
In early 2006, the company said that 11 banks were backing the project.

Personnel
The Chairman of Central Railway was Andrew Gritten and Chief Executive of Central Railway was Alan Stevens who was a UKIP county councillor in Great Missenden, Buckinghamshire between 2013-17.
