Wow is a 1969 Québécois film directed by Claude Jutra, produced by the National Film Board of Canada.

Synopsis
Claude Jutra's first feature-length film is an improvised docudrama about the lives and dreams of nine Montreal young people. The film is made up of nine separate episodes, each one expressing a particular fantasy of one member of the group. This exuberant, low-budget effort, shot in the style of the French New Wave films, provides hints of Jutra's immense talents as a director.

Production
Subjects in the film included some participants Jutra had worked with in his 1966 mockumentary film The Devil's Toy (Rouli-roulant), a faux-anti-skateboarding propaganda film.

Sequel
Thirty years after the production of Wow, the NFB co-produced a sequel Wow 2, using the same concept of adolescents acting out their dreams.  This film was directed by Jean-Philippe Duval and co-produced by , who was a participant in the original film.

Jørgen Christian Knudsen (5 January or 5 December 1843 – 25 December 1922) was a Norwegian ship-owner and politician for the Conservative Party.

Personal life
He was born at Saltrø in Stokken as a son of Christen and Guro Knudsen, née Aadnesdatter. The family bought the farm Frednes in Eidanger in 1854, and moved there. Jørgen Christian Knudsen had one sister Elen Serine, who married Johan Jeremiassen, and one brother Gunnar. Gunnar Knudsen would later become Prime Minister of Norway for the Liberal Party.

In 1867 Jørgen Christian Knudsen married Marie Henriette Resch, daughter of Captain Hagbarth Resch. They settled at Frednes farm. In 1868 they had the son Finn Christian Knudsen, and in 1873 the son Christen Knudsen. A daughter married Robert Rafn. Their daughter Gunda married the British diplomat Christopher Lintrup Paus.

Career

The partnership with his brother ended in 1889, and Knudsen ran his own company. The company was passed down to his sons Finn and Christen, and split between them in 1923.  One of Knudsen's best known ships was the Skomvær, which was for a time the largest sailing ship in Norway.

He was the mayor of Porsgrund municipality in 1893, and vice mayor in 1891, 1892, 1894 and 1895. He was elected to the city council for the first time in 1877.

La Mairena is a hill top residential resort on the Costa del Sol, just 5 km (3 mi) from the coastal ruralisation of Elviria, on the eastern outskirts of Marbella, Spain. At 400 m (1300 ft) above sea level, the village has views towards the Sierra Nevada Mountains, the Mediterranean Sea, the Rock of Gibraltar and the African coast.

The village is located within the municipalities of Ojen and Marbella, in the Andalusian province of Málaga.

In 2012, a wildfire devastated much of the countryside surrounding La Mairena, There was one reported fatality, with damage mainly to gardens.  Many cork oaks, which hadn’t had their protective bark harvested before the fire, have survived and are regaining their abundant canopy of small dark leaves.

History and development 
The village was the brain child of the Massoud family, and was developed by their real estate company, Sarena SA. Development company Sarena SA created and trademarked the name La Mairena, which gave the name to the village, with construction beginning in the late 1980s.

Many developments of apartment complexes and villas have since been completed, with only a few still under construction. There is an approximate 50/50 mix between individual villas and apartment complexes, with many green zones and forested areas in between.

Amenities

The village is home to the Hofsaess Tennis Academy, which has coached grand slam winners including Steffi Graf and Sánchez Vicario. The academy’s tennis courts (four clay, five hardcourt, and two with floodlights), gym and cafe are available for use by members of the public.

Adjacent to the tennis academy is the Kudu Bar and Restaurant, which is open all year round.

The El Soto de Marbella development in the village has a 9 hole practice golf course, gym, bar and restaurant. Non-residents of El Soto are welcome in the bar and restaurant, which hosts live entertainment throughout the year.

There are a further five golf courses near La Mairena. La Cala Golf, on the road to Mijas has three courses, and the Santa Maria and Greenlife Golf Clubs are in Elviria.

Walking, and mountain biking are popular with a number of trails from the village leading into the  Sierra de la Nieves National Park and along the nearby River Ojen.

The village is home to two international private schools: the German Hoffman College (often referred to as the Deutsche Schule Málaga) and the bilingual Colegio ECOS.

Conrad Eugen Skjønberg (March 27, 1889 – July 25, 1971) was a Norwegian actor.

Eugen Skjønberg was married to the actress Henny Skjønberg. They resided at Ramstad. He was the father of Per Skjønberg, Pål Skjønberg, and Espen Skjønberg, and the grandfather of Hennika Skjønberg, Siv Skjønberg, and Jo Skjønberg, all of whom were actors and actresses.

Skjønberg started his career in the banking industry in Kragerø and Skien, but in his twenties he was discovered in the amateur theater by a dance teacher, who recommended him to Alma Fahlstrøm in 1913. Fahlstrøm referred him to Sophie Reimers for training, as well as for singing lessons with Maja Flagstad. Then he received a job at the Stavanger Permanent Theater (Stavanger faste scene) with Thora Hansson, and he made his debut as Johan Tønnessen in Henrik Ibsen's The Pillars of Society. He remained there until 1920.

He was then engaged with the National Theater from 1920 to 1924 before he went to Chat Noir to work under Victor Bernau, where he remained until 1929. After this he joined the newly opened Oslo New Theater, where he worked from 1929 to 1962, except for his years at the Trøndelag Theater, from 1937 to 1946.

Skjønberg participated in a number of recordings for NRK's Radio Theater, and among other things can be heard in the series about Dickie Dick Dickens and Ibsen pieces such as The League of Youth.

He was also a sought-after film actor and appeared in nearly 30 films in Norway and Sweden. Among the best known are Fant (1937), the banned film To mistenkelige personer (1950), and Vi gifter oss (1951).

Skjønberg received the King's Medal of Merit in gold in 1959.

The Bank of Central and South America was established in Connecticut in 1922.  The next year it acquired some of the assets of the Mercantile Bank of the Americas (est. 1915), including its entire interest in the National Bank of Nicaragua, Banco Mercantil de Costa Rica, Banco Mercantil Americano del Peru, Banco Mercantil Americano de Caracas and Banco Mercantil Americano de Colombia.  It had a branch in Hamburg, and 22 branches in Latin America, including four in Venezuela, six in Peru, eight in Colombia, four in Nicaragua, and one in Costa Rica.

The shareholders of the bank included the firms of J.P. Morgan & Company, the Guaranty Trust Company, Brown Brothers and Company, J. and W. Seligman and Company, the Corn Exchange Bank, the Mechanics and Metals National Bank, W.R. Grace and Company, and other interests.  Despite its connections and experienced officers, the bank was not successful and in 1925 the Royal Bank of Canada purchased the South American operations.

Andrievs Niedra (old orthography: Andreews Needra; 8 February 1871 – 25 September 1942) was a Latvian writer, Lutheran pastor and the Prime Minister of the German puppet government in Latvia between April and June 1919, during the Latvian War of Independence.

Niedra's first collection of poems was published when he was only nineteen years old, and he was still in his teens when his stories based on history and folklore began to appear in the newspaper Baltijas Vēstnesis. Between 1890 and 1899 he studied theology at the University of Dorpat (now Tartu). Aesthetically blending realistic fantasy with idealism, his stories, criticism and plays often treated the formation of the Latvian intelligentsia and the situation of the peasantry with regard to the dominant Baltic Germans. Believing that society can only develop through evolution rather than revolution, Niedra was a fierce opponent of socialism and came to be seen as a reactionary in an increasingly revolutionary society.

After collaborating with the German military authorities and their defeat, Niedra fled Latvia. Returning in 1924, he was tried for treason and banished. In exile, the pastor of a German congregation in East Prussia, Niedra took German citizenship and penned a lengthy work entitled Tautas nodevēja atmiņas (The Memoirs of a Traitor to the Nation); the first edition of the first part was destroyed by the dictator Kārlis Ulmanis after the 15 May 1934 coup d'état, and his works were banned. Niedra returned to Latvia during the occupation of Latvia by Nazi Germany and died in Riga.

2MASS J10475385+2124234 (abbreviated to 2MASS J1047+21) is a brown dwarf of spectral class T6.5, in the constellation Leo about 34 light-years from Earth, hence in galactic topographical and interstellar medium study terms being in the Local Bubble and very nearby in the Orion Arm. It is the first brown dwarf to have an inferred range of its typical wind speeds computed.

Discovery 
2MASS J1047+21 was discovered in 1999 along with eight other brown dwarf candidates by Adam J. Burgasser et al. from Two Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS), conducted from 1997 to 2001. Follow-up observations with the Keck I 10-meter telescope's Near Infrared Camera (NIRC) were conducted on 27 May 1999 and identified methane in 2MASS J1047+21's near-infrared spectrum, classifying it as a T-type brown dwarf.

Methodology
The wind speed is directly inferred from minute, regular cycles in its visible (which matches its ultra-violet) appearance compared to the same at radio wave spectra. The radio emissions are coming from electrons interacting with the magnetic field, which is rooted deep in the interior. The visible and infrared (IR) data, on the other hand, reveal what's happening in the gas giant's cloud tops.

Distance 
2MASS J1047+21 is about  from Earth.

Characteristics 

2MASS J1047+21 is a T-type brown dwarf.

Wind speeds 

Wind speeds on 2MASS J1047+21 were measured to be  by the Spitzer Space Telescope.

The Elite 10, known as the Princess Auto Elite 10 for sponsorship reasons, was a curling bonspiel, held as part of the Grand Slam of Curling series. First held in the 2014–15 curling season, it was played between ten top-ranked teams, and utilized a match play system. 

The event was dropped from the Grand Slam calendar for the 2019–20 curling season.

Format
Instead of normal curling scoring rules, the Elite 10 used a match play system in which scoring is based on ends won, rather than rocks scored. An end is won by stealing or scoring two with the hammer, similar to skins curling. Unlike skins, however, there are no carry-overs. In the event of a tie, a draw to the button competition is held to determine the winner. In the standings, wins are worth three points, draw to the button wins are worth two points, and draw to the button losses are worth one point.

Encounter Bay is a locality in the Australian state of South Australia located about  south of the state capital of Adelaide and about  south-west of the municipal seat of Victor Harbor.

It consists of land at the western end of Encounter Bay partly overlooking the subsidiary bay of Rosetta Harbor and which includes the headland of Rosetta Head (commonly known as The Bluff).   State Route B37 passes through the locality under the names of Waitpinga Road and Bay Road, and forms part of the locality's boundary to the north-west.

Encounter Bay's boundaries were created on 9 September 1993 for the "local established name".

Land use is mainly residential with some land adjoining the suburb of Victor Harbor in the north-east being zoned for "light industry" and land at the locality's southern extremity being zoned for "primary industry".  Rosetta Head which is located within the latter area is also listed as a state heritage place on the South Australian Heritage Register.

The 2016 Australian census which was conducted in August 2016 reports that Encounter Bay had a population of 4901.

Encounter Bay is located within the federal division of Mayo, the state electoral district of Finniss and the local government area of the City of Victor Harbor.
