Polkit (formerly PolicyKit) is a component for controlling system-wide privileges in Unix-like operating systems. It provides an organized way for non-privileged processes to communicate with privileged ones. Polkit allows a level of control of centralized system policy. It is developed and maintained by David Zeuthen from Red Hat and hosted by the freedesktop.org project. It is published as free software under the terms of version 2 of the GNU Lesser General Public License.

Since version 0.105, released in April 2012, the name of the project was changed from PolicyKit to polkit to emphasize that the system component was rewritten and that the API had changed, breaking backward compatibility.

Fedora became the first distribution to include PolicyKit, and it has since been used in other distributions, including Ubuntu since version 8.04 and openSUSE since version 10.3. Some distributions, like Fedora, have already switched to the rewritten polkit.

It is also possible to use polkit to execute commands with elevated privileges using the command pkexec followed by the command intended to be executed (with root permission). However, it may be preferable to use sudo, as this command provides more flexibility and security, in addition to being easier to configure.

Implementation
The polkitd daemon implements Polkit functionality.

Vulnerability

A memory corruption vulnerability PwnKit (CVE-2021-4034) discovered in the pkexec command (installed on all major Linux distributions) was announced on January 25, 2022.  The vulnerability dates back to the original distribution from 2009. The vulnerability received a CVSS score of 7.8 ("High severity") reflecting serious factors involved in a possible exploit: unprivileged users can gain full root privileges, regardless of the underlying machine architecture or whether the polkit daemon is running or not.

The Inflatable Antenna Experiment (IAE) was a NASA experiment that began on May 19, 1996, consisting of an inflatable antenna made of mylar which was launched from the Space Shuttle Endeavour during the 1996 STS-77 mission, in cooperation with the satellite Spartan-207.

The antenna correctly inflated, separating from Spartan-207, before re-entering Earth's atmosphere a few days later, on 22 May. IAE was intended to pave the way for the development of lightweight inflatable structures for space applications. The IAE was constructed by LGarde, Inc., an American aerospace company based in Orange County, CA.

Nicolas Chauvin (, ) is a legendary, possibly apocryphal or fictional French soldier and patriot who is supposed to have served in the First Army of the French Republic and later in La Grande Armée of Napoleon. His name is the eponym of chauvinism, originally a term for excessive nationalistic fervor, but later used to refer to any form of bigotry or bias (e.g., male chauvinism).

According to the stories that developed about him, Chauvin was born in Rochefort around 1780.  He enlisted at age 18, and he served honorably and well. He is said to have been wounded 17 times in his nation's service, resulting in his severe disfigurement and maiming. For his loyalty and dedication, Napoleon himself presented the soldier with a Sabre of Honor and a pension of 200 francs.

Chauvin's distinguished record of service and his love and devotion for Napoleon, which endured despite the price he willingly paid for them, is said to have earned him only ridicule and derision in Restoration France, when Bonapartism became increasingly unpopular.

Historicity
Historical research has not identified any biographical details of a real Nicolas Chauvin, leading to the claim that he may have been a wholly fictional figure. Researcher Gérard Puymège concluded that Nicolas Chauvin did not exist, believing him to be a legend, which crystallized under the Restoration and July Monarchy, from the pen of songwriters, vaudeville and historians. He argues that the figure of Chauvin continues the long tradition of the mythological farmer-soldier or miles gloriosus ("boastful soldier") from ancient Roman theater, or the alazon of ancient Greek comedy. Chauvin was originally popularized by Cogniard brothers' La Cocarde Tricolore (1831), where instead of a Napoleonic veteran he was a young naive soldier learning blindly aggressive patriotism during the Algerian campaign of 1830.

Many writers and historians falsely attribute to Chauvin the exploits of other Bonapartists. It is claimed that he served in the Old Guard at the Battle of Waterloo. When the Old Guard was surrounded and made its last stand at La Belle Alliance, he supposedly shouted in defiance to a call for their honorable surrender: "The Old Guard dies but does not surrender!", implying blind and unquestioned zealous devotion to one's country (or other group of reference). The apocryphal phrase was attributed to the Old Guard's commander, Pierre Cambronne, but Cambronne's actual reply was later asserted by other sources to be "Merde!" ("Shit!").

Charles W. Caldwell (May 18, 1943 – September 3, 2003) was an American musician from Mississippi, known for a raw and fiery brand of electric North Mississippi hill country blues.

Caldwell was a lifelong resident of the hill country around Coffeeville, Mississippi. He spent most of his adult life working at an industrial plant in Grenada, Mississippi that manufactured heating and cooling equipment. His public performances were limited to stints at parties and local juke joints. Although Caldwell had begun playing the blues as a teenager, his repertoire remained unrecorded until 2002, when he met Fat Possum Records boss Matthew Johnson. Impressed with Caldwell's playing and personal charisma, Thompson set up recording sessions at The Money Shot in Water Valley, Mississippi. Most songs featured just Caldwell's voice and electric guitar, though a few tracks included minimal drums. Midway through the sessions, Caldwell was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but he doggedly continued recording. He died in September 2003 at the age of 60.

His sole album, Remember Me, was released posthumously on 24 February 2004, garnering favorable reviews and comparisons to such artists as labelmate Junior Kimbrough, John Lee Hooker, and the early Muddy Waters.

Hinch (originally Hinch Live) was an Australian television current affairs and commentary program, broadcast on Sky News Australia and hosted by Derryn Hinch. The program initially aired as a twice weekly program on Saturday and Sunday nights (later airing solely on Sundays), and was originally scheduled to premiere on 31 January 2015, however the launch date was moved back a day to 1 February 2015.

The format was a continuation of weeknight Sky News program Paul Murray Live, which Hinch had been both guest host and a regular contributor.

Despite announcing his intention to stand for a Senate seat as head of Derryn Hinch's Justice Party in October 2015, Hinch remained as host of Hinch Live until the election campaign, in a decision supported by Sky News.

The show's final episode aired on 24 April 2016, ahead of the impending 2016 election campaign, with Hinch telling viewers the show was entering either "semi or permanent recess" depending on Hinch's success in winning a Senate position. Hinch was successful in his campaign and was elected as a Senator for Victoria, therefore ending the program.

Reboot (2019–present)
Following Hinch's defeat in the 2019 Australian federal election, Hinch returned to Sky News as host of weekly Thursday night program Hinch. However, low ratings suggest that the show may not return in 2020.

In November 2019, it was confirmed that the show would not return in 2020. While the last episode was expected to air on 12 December it concluded one week earlier on 5 December 2019. Hinch claimed the reason for his show's cancellation was that he "wasn't right wing enough".

Moses Kiarie Kuria is a Kenyan politician and the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Investments, Trade and Industry having been appointed by President William Ruto, and successfully vetted by the 13th Parliament of Kenya. He was sworn in on 27 October 2022 as the new CS for Investments, Trade and Industry replacing Betty Maina.

Political career 
Kuria is a staunch admirer of former President Kibaki. He attributes his admiration for politics to the former president. His political journey started when he joined Kibaki's team through Uhuru Kenyatta's Kanu Party.

Following the death of the then member of parliament for Gatundu South, Hon. Jossy Ngugi, Moses Kuria was elected unopposed as the new MP in 2014 on TNA party. He was re-elected as an MP during the 2017 general elections to serve for a 5-year parliamentary term, running until 2022 on Jubilee Party. In 2021, he founded a new party Chama Cha Kazi. He was succeeded by Gabriel Kagombe in the 2022 General Election.

He lost the race to Kimani Wamatangi and conceded defeat stating that he would proceed to pursue a different course in the private sector. On 27 September 2022, he was appointed as Cabinet secretary for Investments, Trade and Industry.

Controversy 
Kuria's political career has been marred by controversy. He has been incarcerated severally and charged with hate speech. His ravaging attacks on Kenya's opposition has created a sharp schism among political protagonists; while the opponents feel that Kuria is a 'loose cannon' who is poised to incite his community against the others, his proponents believe that he is an ardent defender of their interests in the political arena.

McCool Stadium, officially known as Travis E. Parker Field at Horace L. McCool Stadium, is the home playing venue for the Delta State Statesmen football team. Located in Cleveland, Mississippi, the stadium has a capacity of 8,000. Originally constructed in 1970, the stadium is one of the Gulf South Conference’s most historic venues.

History
The stadium was built in 1970, as a replacement for the "old" Delta Field, and was called Delta Field and Travis E. Parker Field. The first game it hosted was a Delta State win over Southeast Missouri State, 14-8. In 2007, the university recognized Horace L. McCool, one of the greatest collegiate head coaches in Mississippi football history. McCool served as the head coach of the Statesmen from 1961-1973, which helped open the new stadium at the time in 1970. Over the span of those 13 seasons, McCool recorded 76 wins, 48 losses and three ties, including six-straight winning seasons. Horace McCool still stands as the all-time record for a head coach at Delta State, and he continues on being the only coach in Statesman history to have six-consecutive winning seasons as a head coach.

Renovations
The first of many renovations to McCool Stadium was in 1993. The university replaced certain seating sections the stadium with green chairback seats to give the spectators more comfort. A new scoreboard as well as a video board were added in 2008. The press box was renovated in May 2013 and includes booths for radio, film, coaches, and working press, as well as a snack-kitchen and restroom. Adding artificial turf in 2014 to the football field is one of the most recent additions to the stadium.
