Pulse is the fifth album from the Shetland-born singer-songwriter and musician Astrid Williamson. The album was produced by Leo Abrahams (a guitarist famed for his work with Brian Eno).

Reception

Pulse was judged by MusicOMH to be a "bold change in direction....pulled off extremely competently". The Scotsman newspaper suggested the "lilting conversational beauty of [the track] "Paperbacks" - up there with Joni Mitchell's best moments". Popmatters viewed it as "less a game-changer than a paradigm shift", while UNCUT magazine concluded it is "as beautiful as it is unsettling".

An annular solar eclipse occurred on December 2, 1937. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is smaller than the Sun's, blocking most of the Sun's light and causing the Sun to look like an annulus (ring). An annular eclipse appears as a partial eclipse over a region of the Earth thousands of kilometres wide. Annularity was visible from Ogasawara, Tokyo and South Seas Mandate (the part now belonging to Marshall Islands) in Japan, and Gilbert and Ellice Islands (the part now belonging to Kiribati).

The duration of annularity at maximum eclipse (closest to but slightly shorter than the longest duration) was 12 minutes, 0.33 seconds in the Pacific Ocean. It was the longest annular solar eclipse since December 25, 1628, but the Solar eclipse of December 14, 1955 lasted longer.

Chechens in Syria are ethnic Chechens who form a small minority in Syria.

History 
Syria is home to a substantial Chechen population who emigrated there due to the Chechen–Russian conflict. The initial Chechen migrants sometimes clashed with local Arab and Druze settlers, though they later peacefully integrated into Syrian society. After the Syrian Civil War's outbreak in 2011, however, about 3,000 Chechen militants also travelled to Syria in order to wage jihad there, and formed numerous anti-government militias. The most notable Chechen-led groups in Syria were Jaish al-Muhajireen wal-Ansar, the Caucasus Emirate (Syrian branch), Junud al-Sham and Ajnad al-Kavkaz.

The hostility of Chechens to the Assad Government is strengthened by the close relationship between Russia and the Assad Government, and long historical Chechen–Russian conflict. There are also recent Chechen soldiers working on the Assad side, mostly sent by strongman in Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov.

Population
There are no reliable figures on ethnic minorities in Syria, however, estimates on the Chechen minority ranged from 6,000 to 35,000 in 2008.

The Chechen community in the Golan Heights were evicted following the 1967 Arab-Israeli War, with many Chechen refugees moving to Damascus whilst others emigrated abroad, especially to the United States.

Culture
Due to repression by the Syrian Ba'athist government, the Chechen minority have had little success in preserving their language and culture. The Encyclopedia of Arabic Language and Linguistics places the Chechen language as the sixth-most spoken language in the country.

The New York Summer Music Festival (NYSMF) was a summer program for young musicians held at SUNY Oneonta that operated from 2006 to 2015. The camp offered workshops with accomplished musicians and attendees performed in dozens of free public concerts during each of the program's two-week sessions. At the end of its 2015 season, the program's Executive Director, Jungeun Kim, announced the NYSMF board's decision not to reopen the camp in 2016.

Background
The festival has provided venues for young musicians in both classical and jazz genres, which has helped to advance studies. Described by the Warwick Advertiser as one of the world's most prestigious youth music programs, it was attended by Caroline Moore, a trained vocalist in the classical and jazz genres.
Among the people involved with the festival was well-known Penn State opera singer Blythe Walker. She was the director of vocal studies for the festival.  Dr. Nathan Warner who as of August 2014 is a professor of music at Lee University had spent eight years as a constructor of classical trumpet and jazz studies at the festival. Former Nashville Symphony chorus director was serving on the festivals conducting faculty in 2013. Other people who have served on the festivals faculty include New York City-based Saxophonist Roxy Coss, who by 2015 was considered a rising star, the front-woman of the Roxy Coss Quintet.

Ballindine () is a village in County Mayo, Ireland. It is located along the Western Railway Corridor, 6.5 km (4 miles) south of Claremorris. The N17 road passes through the village, carrying over 10,000 vehicles daily, and it connects to the R328 road on the south side of town.

History

The remains of a possible fort are located in a field next to the National School. Folklore states that Ballindine got its name from this fort—Baile an Daingin meaning "Town of the Fortress" and that the souterrain, just outside it, was connected underground to the ruins of the old church in Cloonmore about 2 km (1.25 miles) to the east and also to the ruins of the old church in Garryduff, 5 km (3 miles) west.

Ballindine is in the Roman Catholic parish of Kilvine. Church records are held at the South Mayo Family Research Centre in Ballinrobe. Old school records dating to the 1800s are held in the present National School.

Events and community
The village has had a monthly cattle and sheep fair since the 1960s and the Ballindine September fair was well known in West of Ireland. The July fair was also called 'The Gooseberry Fair' and Ballindine marked this tradition with an annual 'Gooseberry Festival' until 2002.

The Western Alzheimer's Foundation is headquartered in Ballindine.

Sport
The Ballindine Gaelic footballers join with Irishtown to form the Davitts team who play in red and black. The combined Davitts club plays in Division 1A league and Senior Championship. In 2011 Davitts won the Intermediate County Championship after beating Burrishoole in the final. They went on to win the Intermediate Connacht Championship after defeating Padraig Pearses.

Transport
Ballindine railway station was opened on 30 April 1894, and closed on 17 June 1963.

The N17 passes through the village. However, as of 2010, the village was due to be bypassed as part of the Claremorris–Tuam dual-carriageway which (as of 2012) was in the early stages of planning.

Notable people
Sabina Coyne, actress and wife of the President of Ireland, Michael D. Higgins, is a native of Cloonrane, a townland in County Galway one kilometre south of Ballindine.
Pippa Hackett, Green Party) Senator.
Pat Rabbitte, former leader of the Labour Party, was born in Woodstock, a townland near the village, and still owns a family home there.

Pinus serotina, the pond pine, marsh pine or pocosin pine, is a pine tree found along the Southeastern portion of the Atlantic coastal plain of the United States, from southern New Jersey south to Florida and west to southern Alabama. This pine often has a crooked growth pattern and an irregular top and grows up to  high, rarely to .

The needles are in bundles of three or four, and  long. The almost round cones are  long with small prickles on the scales. Its cones are usually serotinous, requiring fire to open. The pond pine is found in wet habitats near ponds, bays, swamps, and pocosins. Often found among long leaf pines due to their high flammability and the pond pines need for fire to germinate.

The species name serotina is derived from the persistently unopened cones that may remain closed for several years before they release their seeds; the opening is often in response to forest fires.

At the north end of its range, it intergrades and hybridizes with pitch pine (P. rigida); it is distinguished from that species by the longer needles and on average slightly larger cones. Some botanists treat pond pine as a subspecies of pitch pine.

The Bryant is a residential building at 16 West 40th Street, south of Bryant Park, in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, developed by HFZ Capital Group and designed by the firm of architect David Chipperfield. The building topped out in 2016, and construction ended in 2018.

History
The city first approved plans for the building in 2007. HFZ announced Chipperfield's role as architect in 2015, in the same press release that disclosed the development's name. The announcement also disclosed that the building would have both condominiums and a luxury hotel. The site formerly held a parking lot, and constituted the final undeveloped plot on Bryant Park.

The developers of the nearby Bryant Park Hotel sued HFZ over the use of the name "The Bryant".

Architecture
HFZ solicited plans from architectural firms including Morris Adjmi and Spivak Architects before settling on Chipperfield. The facade is made of precast, polished concrete, a choice Chipperfield made so that the structure would be aesthetically distinguished from new construction that employs glass as its facade. The New York Times referred to the facade as "[...] a touch that promises to make the building stand out". The precast material features marble and sandstone chips in various colors. The colors of the inserted materials reference nearby buildings. Chipperfield's firm also designed the interior, which features herringbone floors. The facade extends into the building's residences.

Though The Bryant is Chipperfield's first ground-up commission in New York, he previously designed the interior of the Bryant Park Hotel, inside the American Radiator Building, which neighbors The Bryant.

Andrew Herd Scott was a Scottish professional golfer. Scott tied for seventh place with fellow countrymen Ben Sayers and David Brown in the 1896 Open Championship.

Early life
Scott was born in Scotland circa 1870.

Golf career

1896 Open Championship
The 1896 Open Championship was the 36th Open Championship, held 10–11 and 13 June at Muirfield in Gullane, East Lothian, Scotland. Harry Vardon won the Championship after a playoff against J.H. Taylor. Scott's result in the tournament was very commendable. He carded rounds of 83-84-77-80=324. His third and fourth round total of 157 was four shots better than what the great J.H. Taylor scored in those rounds. If not for the difficulties he encountered in the first two rounds he certainly would have finished much higher on the final leaderboard.

Just five days before his 73rd birthday, Old Tom Morris played in his last Open Championship, 36 years after finishing second in the first Championship. At  he remains the oldest known competitor in the Open Championship.
