Route description

NC 113 is an exceptionally straight road in the area; the highway serves as a connector to Virginia from either NC 18 or U.S. Route 221 (US 221).  Nearby New River State Park can be accessed by either via US 221 or South Fork Church Road. The Blue Ridge Parkway is  south on NC 18.  From Weigh Station Road to George Shepherd Road, the road straddles the Ashe/Alleghany county line for .

History
NC 113 was established in 1930 as a primary new routing from Toluca to Newton.  In late 1934, it was renumbered to NC 73 (replaced in 1940 by the current NC 10).  NC 113 returned in 1937 as a renumbered route through Halifax when US 301 was rerouted to bypass the city.  It was renumbered, around 1960, as US 301A (today as US 301 Business).

The third, and current, NC 113 was established in 1964, which was extended further north in 1977 to its current terminus after NC 93 was also rerouted further north.

Okenia nakamotoensis is a species of sea slug, specifically a dorid nudibranch, a marine gastropod mollusc in the family Goniodorididae.

Distribution
This species was described from Japan. It is known from Bohol and Cebu Islands, Philippines, Indonesia and the Marshall Islands. It has also been reported from Mabul, Malaysia and Mayotte, Indian Ocean.

Description
This Okenia has a narrow, almost cylindrical, body and long lateral papillae. There is one mid-dorsal papilla in front of the gills. The body is bright pink and just the bases of the mantle processes are white. In animals from the Philippines and the Marshall Islands the white pigment extends onto the body as a broken line joining the bases of the papillae and as spots and streaks.

Ecology
The diet of this species is the bryozoan Tropidozoum cellariforme Harmer, 1957. This sea slug is very similar to Okenia kondoi and can be found with that species on the same food. There are two other species from northern Australia, which are also similar to this species, and those are Okenia stellata and Okenia hallucigenia.

Liriodendrites is an extinct genus of plants, known from fossil leaves. These have a forked apex (bifurcate), like those of extant species of Liriodendron. They have been interpreted as transitional between the leaves of the extinct genus Liriophyllum and Liriodendron. The genus has been placed in the family Magnoliaceae. Five species are known: L. aeternus, L. bradacii, L. laramiense, L. occidentalis and L. sachalinensis. It has been discovered in the United States (Hell Creek Formation), Egypt (Bahariya Formation) and Russia (Sakhalin and Siberia).

Teuvo Pakkala (originally Teodor Oskar Frosterus, 9 April 186217 May 1925) was a Finnish author, playwright, reporter, linguist and teacher.

Pakkala is considered to be one of the realists of the 1880s and 1890s, and he is also often called a naturalist.  Pakkala's works are especially noted for their portrayal of children.

Life 
Teuvo Pakkala was born in Oulu, Finland, where he also went to school. He studied medicine, languages and history in the university. His writing career started as a journalist. He  also translated works of  Norwegian writers Henrik Ibsen, Jonas Lie, Alexander Kielland and  Knut Hamsun.  As a journalist he followed closely the industrialisation and urbanisation of Oulu in the 1870s and 1880s.

Pakkala was skilful in describing people, especially women and children. He worked as a teacher 1907–1920, and shows in his books about children an unprecedented understanding of child psychology. His works were not much appreciated in his own time. One of the reasons may be, that he also wrote "folk drama",  including a very popular musical play "Tukkijoella". Tukkijoella is a comedy about lumberjacks, and it is still the most-performed play in Finland.

Pakkala worked also in Jyväskylä and died in Kuopio. He is buried in the Oulu Cemetery.

Filmmaking career 
Late in his life, Teuvo Pakkala became interested in filmmaking.  In 1921 he co-founded the original Finn Film in Oulu, Finland, with Toivo T. Kaila and G.H. Michelson.

Finn Film produced its only movie, Sotapolulla (On the Warpath), in 1921.  Pakkala wrote the screenplay and directed the film.

YooPlay Games was a TV interactive service which featured gambling and betting games.

The channel was available on Freeview channel 106 and the Sky Digital Interactive menu.

On Sky YooPlay Games was replaced by YooPlay TV (channel 850).

YooPlay on Freeview
The channel officially launched on Freeview channel 53 (multiplex D) on 23 May 2003 as Free2Play, with all the games on the channel available to play free of charge. However, later that year the channel introduced paid-for content games, which the player had to phone a premium rate number to gain access to the channel, hence the channel's re-branding to F2P Games the following year. In late 2004, F2P dropped the brand completely and aligned with its sister on Sky Digital, YooPlay Games.

In late 2005 the service switched to multiplex C. At around this time, YooMedia decided to lease certain hours of the channel's bandwidth to other broadcasters, namely overnight EPG services (presently tvtv DIGITAL), and reduced the output on the YooPlay Games channel significantly. The games channel was closed entirely on 18 July 2006, when YooMedia leased its remaining capacity to SMG plc's Virgin Radio (broadcasting on Freeview channel 727). YooMedia's EPG-service contract remains in place.

Dicksonia lanata is a fern endemic to New Zealand.  Colloquial names include stumpy tree fern, tūākura and tūōkura.

Dicksonia lanata can be easily distinguished from the other Dicksonia species indigenous to New Zealand by its long, green or light brown stipes (the frond stalks). Dicksonia squarrosa has dark brown stipes; D. fibrosa has very short stipes.

There are two subspecies.

Subspecies 
Dicksonia lanata subsp. lanata is unusual among tree ferns in lacking a trunk.  It occurs in higher areas of the North Island from Coromandel Peninsula southwards, although it is uncommon in the southern North Island.  It also occurs in the northern and western South Island.  In addition to the absence of a trunk, subsp. lanata can be recognised by the prominent tufts of woolly hairs at the vein junctions on the underside of its fronds.

Dicksonia lanata subsp. hispida (Colenso) Perrie & Brownsey occurs in the northern North Island, from the Kaipara Harbour northwards, as well as Great Barrier Island.  It has a trunk up to 2 m tall, and its frond undersides lack the prominent tufts of woolly hairs found in subsp. lanata.  Subspecies hispida is often associated with kauri forests.  These northern plants were initially described by William Colenso in 1844 as a variety, but this was raised to subspecies rank in 2014.

Habit 
Dicksonia lanata subsp. lanata is stoloniferous, and subsp. hispida probably is as well.  Both can occur in large, tangled colonies, particularly subsp. lanata, which can dominate the ground cover over large areas, especially in the axial mountain ranges of the central-eastern North Island (Urewera, Kaimanawa, Kaweka, Ruahine).
