Barbara Maria Karel Deckx (born 22 January 1974), better known by her stage name Barbara Dex, is a Belgian singer who represented her country in the Eurovision Song Contest 1993 with the song "Iemand als jij".

Dex had qualified via the Belgian national heat, Eurosong 93, held at the Casino Knokke on 6 March. At the Eurovision in Millstreet, she performed seventh, after Greece's entry "Ellada, Hora Tou Fotos" and before Malta's song "This Time". Dex came last, in 25th place.

Barbara returned to the Belgian final in 2004, teaming up with Alides for the song "One Life" which placed third. A further Eurovision attempt came in 2006 with the country line-dancing flavoured "Crazy" which earned her fifth place.

Barbara Dex was born in Turnhout, one of the three children of Marcel Deckx, a Belgian singer better known by his stage name Marc Dex. Her brother Tom Deckx has played bass guitar in the musical groups Tush and Nuts.

In Eurovision, Barbara wore a self-made dress, which inspired House of Eurovision's Barbara Dex Award for the contestant with the worst (later, "most striking") outfit.

Discography 
Dex has released several albums between 1993 and 2011.

First album Iemand contains songs in Dutch. Since 1994 she has performed songs only in English.

Haemulinae is a subfamily of the Haemulidae and consists of the genera of that family which are regarded as being of New World origin, although they are now widespread. The subfamily is distinguished from the Plectorhynchinae by having a short dorsal fin which contains 13-16 soft rays, as opposed to the long dorsal fin with 17-26 soft rays of the subfamily Plectorhynchinae.

Genera
The following genera are included in the Haemulinae:

 Anisotremus Gill 1861
 Boridia Cuvier, 1830
 Brachydeuterus Gill, 1862
 Conodon Cuvier, 1830
 Emmelichthyops Schultz, 1945
 Haemulon Cuvier, 1829
 Haemulopsis Steindachner, 1869
 Isacia Jordan & Fesler, 1893
 Microlepidotus Gill, 1862
 Orthopristis Girard, 1858
 Parakuhlia Pellegrin, 1913
 Pomadasys Lacépède, 1802
 Xenichthys Gill, 1862
 Xenistius Jordan & Gilbert, 1883
 Xenocys  Jordan & Bollman, 1890

The genus Brachygenys is recognised by some authorities as Haemulon was determined to be paraphyletic in molecular studies which showed Haemulon chrysargyreum clustered with Xenistius californianus. The genus also includes the other species in Xenistius and Xenocys. Similarly, these studies also resolved Pomadasys as paraphyletic and the genera Rhencus and Rhonciscus were revived to solve this paraphyly, with the eastern Pacific species P. macracanthus and P. panamensis being placed in Rhencus while Rhonciscus contains the eastern Pacific species P. bayanus and the western Atlantic species P. crocro. These changes are recognised by Catalog of Fishes but not yet by Fishbase. In addition, according to these studies, Anisotremus moricandi makes Anisotremus paraphyletic if included and has been placed in the monotypic genus Paranisotremus.

Catalog of Fishes lists the following genera as valid within the Haemulinae:

 Anisotremus Gill 1861
 Boridia Cuvier, 1830
 Brachydeuterus Gill, 1862
 Brachygenys Poey, 1868
 Conodon Cuvier, 1830
 Emmelichthyops Schultz, 1945
 Haemulon Cuvier, 1829
 Haemulopsis Steindachner, 1869
 Isacia Jordan & Fesler, 1893
 Microlepidotus Gill, 1862
 Orthopristis Girard, 1858
 Parakuhlia Pellegrin, 1913
 Paranisotremus Tavera, Acero & Wainwright, 2018
 Pomadasys Lacépède, 1802
 Rhencus Jordan & Evermann, 1896
 Rhonciscus Jordan & Evermann, 1896
 Xenichthys Gill, 1862

Other authorities place the genus Genyatremus within the Haemulinae, although both Fishbase and Catalog of Fishes put this genus in the other Haemulid subfamily Plectorhinchinae.

The Požega villages massacre was the mass murder of predominantly elderly Croatian Serbs from villages surrounding the city of Požega on 29 October 1991 by the 121st Brigade from Nova Gradiska and 123rd Brigade from Slavonski Požega units of the Croatian Army (HV). 

The Slavonska Požega Crisis Committee issued an order on 28 October 1991 which was broadcast on the radio and posted on banners in the streets, for the evacuation of 26 predominantly Serb-populated villages and gave the inhabitants 48 hours to leave. The order was reportedly issued under the pretext that the villages would be protected. Shortly after the deadline, Croatian troops, led by Miljenko Crnjac, marched into the area, pillaging and burning the villages. Three were spared because they had a few Croat inhabitants. Though most of the villagers abandoned their homes, the elderly did not. Those who could not or did not want to leave were killed during the operation. The villages targeted included Vučjak Čečavački, Šnjegavić, Jeminovac and Ruševac. The Zagreb-based Serbian Democratic Forum estimates that 44 civilians were killed, more than 1,000 homes and other buildings destroyed and over 1,400 people made homeless by the operation.

Vladimir Orlovsky (, ; 1842, Kiev, Russian Empire – 1914, Genoa, Italy) was a Russian realist painter of Ukrainian origin, and academic of Saint Petersburg Academy of Arts. Orlovsky painted for Moscow and St. Petersburg aristocracies, and his art was even bought by the Emperor of Russia himself, Alexander III. Orlovsky is considered one of the founders of Ukrainian Realist landscape painting.

Life, art, and death
Orlovsky was born in Kiev in 1842 to a landowning noble family of Ukrainian descent.  In the talent of the young artist believe his art teacher of the second Kiev gymnasium, Ivan Soshenko who earlier helped Taras Shevchenko. The gymnasium's director M. Chalyi also recognized Orlovsky's talent and recommended him in a written letter to Shevchenko. And so it was that the painter's art education commenced with a letter of recommendation from Taras Shevchenko at the Saint Petersburg Academy of Fine Arts in 1861. During Orlovsky's study at the Imperial Academy of Arts his teacher was one of the most famous Russian landscape painters of 19th century Alexey Bogolyubov. For his quick successes, Orlovsky received in St. Petersburg a large silver medal at the academy in 1863. Later he painted while in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kiev, North Caucasus, Crimea and Finland.

Upon the conclusion of his studies in 1868, Orlovsky gained the recognition of his colleagues in the academic circles and the general public, earning the title of artist of the first degree.  Orlovsky received a gold medal for his paintings of Crimean landscapes, which allowed him to travel abroad on government allowance.  Thus from 1869 to 1872, Orlovsky worked in Paris, France, as well as Switzerland, Germany, and Italy.

In two years, in 1874, Orlovsky was promoted to the status of an academic, and in 1878 for his painting Harvest he was made professor. He enjoyed popularity on par with Ivan Aivazovsky, and was influenced by the work of Arkhip Kuindzhi.

In 1897, the artist became ill with typhoid, and following the advice of his doctors moved from St. Petersburg with its dampness to Kiev. To keep his health Vladimir Orlovsky spent the rest of his life in Genoa, Italy.

Afro-Iranians () are Iranian people of African Zanj heritage. Most Afro-Iranians are concentrated in the coastal provinces of Persian Gulf such as Hormozagan, Sistan and Baluchestan, Bushehr and Khuzestan.

History

The Indian Ocean slave trade was multi-directional and changed over time. To meet the demand for menial labor, enslaved black people who were captured by Arab slave traders were sold in cumulatively large numbers over centuries to; the Persian Gulf, Egypt, Arabia, India, the Far East, the Indian Ocean islands and Ethiopia.
Others came as immigrants throughout many millennia or from Portuguese slave traders who occupied most of the contested Ormus's Bandar Abbas, Hormoz and Qeshm island ports in southern Iran by early 16th century.

During Qajar rule, many wealthy households imported Black African women and children to perform domestic work alongside Eastern European Circassian slaves. This was largely drawn from the Zanj, who were Bantu-speaking peoples that lived alongside Southeast Africa. In an area roughly comprising modern-day Tanzania, Mozambique and Malawi. Under British pressure, Mohammad Shah Qajar issued a firman suppressing slave trade in 1848.

Maryvale is a neighbourhood in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It is located on the western edge of the Scarborough district, with its western border being Victoria Park Avenue. To the north it is bordered by Highway 401, to the east by Warden and to the south by railroad tracks.

History

The area was first settled as farmland and the neighbourhood is named after the Maryvale farm that once covered part of the area. It was an early part of Scarborough to be developed, being turned into a new suburb in the early 1950s.

The most prominent landmark in the community is the Metro store at Parkway Mall which has a distinctively curved roof, that was the largest wooden arch in Canada at the time of its construction. Originally built as a Grand Union store in 1958 and later converted to a Miracle Food Mart, the Parkway Mall Metro location was declared a heritage building in 2009.

Education
Two public school boards operate elementary schools in Maryvale, the separate Toronto Catholic District School Board (TCDSB), and the secular Toronto District School Board (TDSB).

Maryvale Public School is a Kindergaten to Grade 8 school that opened in 1955 and was built close to the original farm of the William Sylvester family, who had emigrated from Wexford, Ireland. At a later date, the William Gooderham family purchased the land, and subsequently "Maryvale Farms" was acquired by Frank Patrick O'Connor.
Our Lady of Wisdom Separate School
Terraview-Willowfield Public School was built in 1958 as Willowfield Gardens Public School and merged with nearby Terraview Heights Public School in 1984. It has a pond nearby for outdoor education. The former Terraview school building is used by the board as Parkview Alternative School', a grade 9-12 secondary school originally affiliated with Scarborough Centre for Alternative Studies originally named Overflow and the boards “Caring and Safe School” fresh start program for the Learning Centre Region 2 area.

Neither school board operates a secondary school in the neighbourhood, with TCDSB/TDSB secondary school students residing in Maryvale attending institutions in adjacent neighbourhoods although an alternative school exists nearby (see above). The French first language public secular school board, Conseil scolaire Viamonde, and it separate counterpart, Conseil scolaire catholique MonAvenir also offer schooling to applicable residents of Maryvale, although they do not operate a school in the neighbourhood, with CSCM/CSV students attending schools situated in other neighbourhoods in Toronto.
