"Riquet with the Tuft" (), also known as "Ricky of the Tuft", is a French literary fairy tale first published by Catherine Bernard in 1696. The more famous version is that of Charles Perrault in his Histoires ou contes du temps passé in 1697.

Name
Three possible explanations of the name Riquet exist:
 Perrault mischievously refers to the Riquetti family, whose name was Frenchified as Riquet. Pierre-Paul Riquet, protege of Jean-Baptiste Colbert, was the promoter of the Royal Canal in Languedoc.
 Catherine Bernard, author of an earlier version which inspired Perrault, was from Normandy. Émile Littré, in his article “Riquet à la Houppe”, specifies: “Etymology: it is said that in Norman, riquet means counterfeit, hunchback”.
 This nickname can also be interpreted as the diminutive of Henriquet, little Henri.

Plot
In the version by Charles Perrault, a fairy gives an ugly prince named Ricky the gift of conferring wit upon the one he loves the best. Prince Ricky of the Tuft comes to a kingdom with two princesses. The elder one is beautiful but unintelligent and the younger one is intelligent but ugly. The elder princess is saddened that her ugly but smart sister receives more attention than her. One day as the elder princess was going for a walk in the forest to ease her sorrow, she is approached by Ricky who had fallen in love with her after seeing portraits of her that circulated. Ricky asks how a person so beautiful as she can be so sad, to which she responds that she is sad because she is beautiful but lacks intelligence. Ricky then bestows the gift of intelligence on the elder princess for a promise of marriage. A year later, Ricky comes to marry her. She refuses on grounds that he cannot hold her to a promise made before she gained her wisdom. The princess then tells him that she was gifted at birth with the power to transform her lover into a beautiful person by the same fairy who helped him. The princess thinks of all the Prince's good qualities and at once the prince is transformed. The king has his daughter married to the prince who has already made preparations for the wedding.

WTCY (88.3 FM) is a Catholic radio station licensed to Greilickville, Michigan serving the Traverse City area of the northwestern region of  Michigan's lower peninsula. It began as an FM repeater of WTCK 90.9 FM in Charlevoix with main studios located near the  Cross in the Woods Catholic Shrine in Indian River. In the spring of 2015, the main studio moved from its Indian River beginnings to a new facility in Traverse City.

Brief history
WTCY began in July 2010 as a construction permit issued to the Grand Traverse Area Catholic Schools which was sold in November of that year to Baraga Broadcasting.
By 2011 the construction permit was modified and the power upgraded from that of the original construction permit. Its licence was granted by the FCC in May 2011.

In the fall of 2014 a new logo and branding "Baraga Radio" was introduced along with a new website The Catholic Light Dot Com coupled with its 2015 move of its main studio from Indian River to Traverse City.

WTCK (licensed to Charlevoix) is now a repeater station with its former main studio in Indian River.

On December 11, 2019, WTCY and its sister stations were acquired by Immaculate Heart Media, bringing Relevant Radio programming to Northern Michigan.

Callsign history
WTCY were the call letters of 1390 AM (originally WOHP, later WTOO and currently WBLL in Bellefontaine, Ohio from 1981 until 1983). It was also used between 1993 and 2008 on 1400 AM in Harrisburg Pennsylvania which is now WHGB.

Sesleria autumnalis, commonly known as autumn moor grass, is a species of grass within the family Poaceae. It is native to southeastern Europe and often used as ornamental ground cover in North America.

Taxonomy 
The first recorded description of the species is attributed to Giovanni Antonio Scopoli, who referred to it as Phleum autumnale in the second edition of his book, Flora Carniolica, which was published in 1771. Friedrich Wilhelm Schultz gave the species its current name, Sesleria autumnalis in his book Archives de Flore.

The species has been referred to by several heterotypic synonyms, including: Sesleria elongata, Aira alba, and Sesleria argentea var. elongata.

Description 

Sesleria autumnalis is a perennial. Its blades are phyllotactic and overhanging, with v-shaped cross sections. In the autumn it changes in color, from light-green to a yellowish brown. It flowers in late summer, when spikelets grow in groups of three on the end of leafless stems.

Distribution and habitat
In its natural habitat, S. autumnalis is often found in wooded regions and grassy or sparsely covered areas. The species is common in the Balkan Peninsula and on the calcite mountains of the eastern Alps.

Cultivation
Sesleria autumnalis is cultivated as an ornamental plant. It has received the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.

The Erongo Desalination Plant, also known as the Orano Desalination Plant, is a sea water desalination plant in Namibia. The facility was constructed between 2008 and 2010 by Orano Mining Namibia, which at the time was known as Areva Resources Namibia. The desalination plant was established to supply water to Orano’s Trekkopje Uranium Mine. At the time this plant was commissioned, it was the largest reverse osmosis desalination plant in Southern Africa.

Location
The desalination plant is located in the Namib Desert, near the settlement of Wlotzkasbaken, in the Erongo Region of  Namibia. The plant is located approximately  north of Swakopmund, the nearest large town. Swakopmund is located approximately  by road, west of Windhoek, the capital and largest city in the country. The geographical coordinates of Erongo Desalination Plant are 22°22'19.0"S, 14°26'28.0"E (Latitude:-22.371944; Longitude:14.441111).

Overview
The Erongo Desalination Plant was developed and is owned by Orano Resources Namibia (formerly Areva Resources Namibia). The purified drinking water was primarily intended for use in Orano's uranium mine known as the Trekkopje Mine, located near Arandis, Namibia. The clean water has to be pumped from the plant to Arandis, a straight-line distance of about  and a road distance of approximately . The plant is operated by Nafasi Water, a "water technology and water utility service company", based in Germiston, Gauteng, South Africa.

The potable water is then sold to NamWater, the national water utility company, for distribution to the city of Swakopmund, the nearby mines and other areas of Erongo Region. Output can be varied according to demand ranging from  annually to , with the present infrastructure. If the need arose new infrastructure can be added to supply  annually.

The raw sea water is taken through the following processes, during purification: (a) screen filtration (b) ultrafiltration (c) reverse osmosis (d) limestone contact and (e) chlorination.

Cost
The development of this water treatment plant cost N$2.5 billion (approx. US$153 million) in 2010.

Other developments
In July 2022, the owners of this facility signed a power purchase agreement (PPA) with InnoSun (a subsidiary of the French firm InnoVent) to design, build, own, operate and maintain a 5 MW solar power station and supply that energy to Erongo Desalination Plant for a 10-year contract term, starting on the date of commercial commissioning. Construction is expected to start during the second half of 2022, with commissioning expected in 2023. Orano expects the new solar farm to reduce the
desalination plant's carbon dioxide emissions by 30 percent or nearly 10,000 metric tonnes annually.

Synopsis
Mary-Lou and Larry Weisman first learned that their younger son, Peter, had muscular dystrophy when he was two-and-a-half years old. The doctor told them that the child's muscles would slowly atrophy, and he would eventually die of pneumonia. Mary-Lou and Larry fought to make the next thirteen years that Peter lived intensely loving and fulfilling. And, in the process, they learned a lot about themselves, their marriage, their sons and the importance of the quality of life over the quantity of life.

Ahmad Yamani (Arabic: أحمد يماني; born 1970, Cairo) is an Egyptian poet and translator. He graduated from Cairo University in 1992 and got his PhD in Arabic philology from Complutense University in Madrid. He now lives in Spain where he works at the broadcaster RTVE.

Clarissa C. Burt, writing the Journal of Arabic Literature, classifies Yamani as a "nineties poet".  She wrote "...his work is gross, revolting, disturbing, abusive, even as it reveals occasional remarkable turns of phrase, and inspired use of poetic tools."

Youssef Rakha, writing in The Kenyon Review, characterized the poetry of Yamani and the other young nineties poets as posing a political challenge to followers of Gamal Abdel Nasser (1918-1970), the influential Egyptian leader.

He has published several books of poetry in Arabic, and one in his adopted language Spanish. Yamani has translated numerous Spanish-language  writers into Arabic, among them José Ángel Valente, Rubén Darío, César Vallejo, Adolfo Bioy Casares, Miguel Casado, Rosendo Tello, Ángel Guinda, Agustín Porras, and Roberto Bolaño.

In 2010, he was named as one of the Beirut39, a selection of the best young writers in the Arab world.  Samuel Shimon devoted a chapter of his 2012 book, Beirut39: New Writing from the Arab World, to Yamani, publishing English translations of eight of his poems.

Pu-Ba'lu, (another spelling, also Pu-Bahla) was ruler/mayor of Yursa, (a city/city-state in Canaan(?)), identified with Tell Jemmeh, of the 1350–1335 BC Amarna letters correspondence. His name translates in west semitic as well as in  Akkadian as: "word/mouth (of) Baal", the  'Spokesman (of) Baal' , (–or 'Baal's Voice').

Pu-Ba'lu of Yursa is the author of three letters to pharaoh. See: Yursa

The three Amarna letters, (EA for 'el Amarna') to pharaoh from Pu-Ba'lu of Yursa are:
EA 314—Title: "A shipment of glass"
EA 315—Title: "Like a command of the Sun"–See: Reanap
EA 316—Title: "Postscript to the royal scribe"–See: Tahmašši

Of the entire Amarna letters 382–letter corpus, Pu-Ba'lu of Yursa is only referenced in letters 314, and 315, as: "..Pu-Ba'lu, the ruler of Yursa", and EA 316, as "Pu-Ba'lu". One other reference in EA 104, entitled: "Ullassa taken" is to Abdi-Ashirta's son, "Pu-Bahla", presumably a separate 'Pu-Baal'.

Example letter of Pu-Ba'lu

EA 314, "A shipment of glass"
To the king-(i.e. Pharaoh), my lord, my god, my Sun, the Sun from the sky: Message of Pu-Ba'lu, your servant, the ruler of Yursa. I indeed prostrate myself at the feet of the king, my lord, my god, my Sun: the Sun from the sky, 7 times and 7 times, on the back and on the belly. I am indeed guarding the place of the king, (my) lord, my Sun, the Sun from the sky. Who is the dog g that would not o]be[y the orders of the king, the Sun from the sk]y? [Since the king, my lord, has ord[ere[d] some glass, I [s]end it to the king, my lord, my god, the Sun from the sk[y].  —EA  -314, lines 1-22 (with damaged cuneiform characters)

EA 235, entitled: "An order of glass", is of the same subject, a letter from Satatna of Akka. See also the same subject glass: Yidya of Ašqaluna, EA 323; see: Yidya.
