Lawrence E. "Larry" Stager (January 5, 1943 – December 29, 2017) was an American archaeologist and academic, specialising in Syro-Palestinian archaeology and Biblical archaeology. He was the Dorot Professor of the Archaeology of Israel in the Department of Near Eastern Languages and Civilizations at Harvard University and was Director of the Harvard Semitic Museum. Beginning in 1985 he oversaw the excavations of the Leon Levy Expedition to Ashkelon, the Philistine port city.

Education
Stager was a first-generation college student from Kenton, Ohio, about fifty miles northwest of Columbus, Ohio. He was recruited by the Harvard Club of Dayton, Ohio to attend Harvard University, where he graduated a BA magna cum laude in 1965. Stager then received both his MA and PhD from Harvard, where he worked largely under the supervision of Frank Moore Cross and G. Ernest Wright, both students of William F. Albright. The title of his thesis was Ancient Agriculture in the Judaean Desert: A Case Study of the Buqê'ah Valley in the Iron Age.

Academic positions
After receiving his PhD, Stager was first employed by the University of Chicago, where he taught and researched for the next fourteen years as a member of the Oriental Institute, first as an instructor (1973-4), then as an assistant (1974-6), associate (1976–1985), and finally full professor (1985-6).

In 1986, Stager returned to Harvard, where he became the inaugural holder of an endowed chair, the Dorot Professorship of the Archaeology of Israel. Stager taught courses in Syro-Palestinian archaeology and Hebrew Bible and was an active professional member of the American Schools of Oriental Research (ASOR).

In 2009, a Festschrift for Stager was published under the title Exploring the Longue Durée: Essays in Honor of Lawrence E. Stager (Ed. J. David Schloen; Winona Lake, Ind.: Eisenbrauns).

Archaeological work
Stager's most important archaeological work was conducted through the Leon Levy Expedition to Ascalon, of which he became the director in 1985. This expedition is one of the largest and lengthiest projects in Israel. The results of the dig have been published in the Harvard Semitic Museum and Eisenbrauns' Ashkelon, a series of ten volumes, the third of which was published in 2011.

Prior to his monumental undertakings at Ashkelon, Stager worked on digs at Carthage, Idalion, Gezer, and Tell el-Hesi. 

Stager generally adhered to the traditional scholarly dating of the "United Monarchy" of King David and Solomon.

Recto Verso is the second studio album by French singer Zaz, released on 10 May 2013 by Play On, Jo & Co and Parlophone. It peaked at number two on the French Album Chart and spawned three singles, "On ira", "Si" and "Gamine". Musically, it is largely in a similar style to Zaz's eponymou début album. The title refers to the two sides of Zaz's personality, which she wished to express in the music of the album.

Commercial performance
The album was released to iTunes two days in advance of its physical release, which led to it entering the chart at number 35 on the week ending 16 May 2013. The following week, it rose to number two, with total sales of 44,500. The album lost in a well-publicized chart battle to Vanessa Paradis' album Love Songs, which charted at number one with sales of 48,900. The initial performance of Recto Verso was considered disappointing following Zaz, which spent eight weeks at number one. However, Recto Verso went on to spend 10 weeks in the top 10 and was certified Diamond by the Syndicat National de l'Édition Phonographique (SNEP) on 16 July 2014, denoting sales in excess of 500,000 copies in France.

Singles
The first single released from the album was "On ira" (English: "We Will Go"), an uptempo song about the joys of being human. Released to iTunes on 11 March 2013, the song débuted on the French Singles Chart at number 111 during the week ending 23 March 2013. It slowly climbed the charts, peaking at number 12 on 25 May 2013. It became her highest-charting single to date and first top 20. It was similarly successful in multiple other European countries, including Germany, Switzerland and Austria, where it was her first single to chart since "Je veux" in 2010.

The second single from the album was initially chosen to be "Comme ci, comme ça" and in September 2013, a music video for the song was released. However, the choice was changed to "Si" in October 2013 and a music video for that song was released in the same month, accompanied by a digital release on iTunes. On 20 October 2013, the song reached number 34 on the French Singles Chart, tying with "Je veux" as Zaz's second highest-peaking single.

The 2005–06 Denver Nuggets season was the team's 40th in the NBA. They began the season hoping to improve upon their 49-33 output from the previous season. However, they came five games shy of tying it, finishing 44–38, but qualified for the playoffs for the third straight season. However, the Nuggets would be eliminated by the Los Angeles Clippers in the First Round in five games. In spite of regressing from last year's 49–33, the Nuggets won the division due to the presence of mediocrity.

For this season, they added new dark blue road alternate uniforms with light blue side panels to their jerseys and shorts, they remained in used until 2012.

The Minister of Reconstruction was a British government post that briefly existed during the latter stages of the Second World War, charged with planning for the post-war period. A succession of government committees had failed to make much progress with the problems arising out of reconstruction and so in 1943 Winston Churchill took the bold step of appointing a single minister as a member of the War Cabinet.

Screenplay is an international film festival held annually in Shetland, Scotland. The festival is curated by the film critic Mark Kermode and the film historian Linda Ruth Williams in partnership with Shetland Arts. Since 2012 the festival has been hosted by Mareel arts venue in Lerwick.

History 
The festival was founded in 2006 after Kermode was asked to help start a festival when appearing at Shetland's Wordplay book festival. When the festival was founded there were no cinemas in Shetland, so screenings were held in a variety of venues across the islands including the Lerwick livestock market, a bus shelter in Unst, village halls and the Garrison Theatre. Since 2012 the festival has been hosted by the purpose built cinema and arts venue Mareel.

Banana colloquial speech (Taiwanese: Keng-chio-pe̍h-ōe or simply Keng-chio-pe̍h) or Banana colloquial dialect is a creole language or cant spoken among the Plain indigenous peoples since the Japanese occupation period to the present in hill areas of southern Taiwan, especially Kaohsiung and Tainan. It is primarily a mixture of Taiwanese, and sometime Taivoan language in Jiasian, Kaohsiung.

History
Banana colloquial speech is mainly circulated among Taivoan and Siraya communities in hill areas. Most Han ethnic groups are not familiar with this cant. Some scholars speculated that the cant was invented during the early 20th century during Taiwan's Japanese occupation period by the Plains Indigenous peoples and Han ethnic groups in Tainan and Kaohsiung to resist the Japanese. In July and August 1915, as well as in 1933, a series of anti-Japanese incidents occurred in southern Taiwan, all centered around the Taivoan communities in the Tainan Yujing Basin and Jiaxian, Kaohsiung. The failure of the anti-Japanese resistance resulted in the hiding and moving of many rebels after the destruction of many families and even entire villages by the Japanese government. Consequently, the cant was invented during the resistance.

Variation

Siaolin, Pualiao
The way the Banana colloquial speech is used in Kaohsiung, mixed with Taiwanese or Taivoan language, may differ slightly from other areas, but there is consistency among the Taivoan communities that the speakers can communicate with each other. Here are some examples based on the cant provided by residents of Siaolin and Pualiao, both of which are Taivoan communities:

Goping
Another dialect of the Banana colloquial speech was provided by Zhu Yuanshun from Goping village, Neimen District, Kaohsiung. The formation of the cant is done by mapping one original syllable of Taiwanese Hokkien to two syllables of the cant. In this dialect, the first consonant fixed as [l] and the second vowel fixed as [i]. This conversion method is completely different from that used in the Taivoan area.

Priyakant Premachand Maniyar (24 January 1927 – 25 June 1976) was a Gujarati poet from Gujarat, India. He published seven collections of symbolic and imagist poetry, and was awarded the Sahitya Akademi Award posthumously in 1982 for Lilero Dhal (1979), a collection of love songs about Radha and Krishna.

Early life
Priyakant Maniyar was born to Premachand and Premakunwar in Viramgam (now in Gujarat, India) on 24 January 1927. His parents had migrated to Viramgam from Amreli for business. He was the second of five children. He started his primary school education at Mandal, where he studied until second grade, however he dropped out of New High School in Ahmedabad a few years later. Around this time he wrote his first poem, Pankhi ane Dano (Lit. Bird and Bird-seed), and submitted it for publication in Kumar magazine. Bachubhai Ravat, an editor of Kumar, suggested he join the Budh Sabha, a weekly literary workshop. Maniyar was a bangle-maker by profession.

Works

Priyankant Maniyar is considered as one of the four major poets of the Niranjan school, a literary school named after poet Niranjan Bhagat. Other major poets of this school include Hasmukh Pathak and Nalin Raval.

Maniyar wrote symbolic and imagist poetry, and published seven collections of poems: Pratik (Sumbol; 1953), Ashabda Ratri (Silent Night; 1959), Sparsha (Touch; 1966), Sameep (Nearness; 1972), Prabal Gati (Powerful Speed; 1974), Vyom Lipi (Sky's Alphabet; 1979) and Lilero Dhal (Green Slope; 1979). His poems are composed in metrical, prosodic, orthometric and blank verses.

Lilero Dhal is a collection of love songs of Radha and Krishna. The book also contains songs that depict the beauty of nature, mountains, springs, clouds, and rainbows. The songs became very popular among poetry lovers, as they are melodious and composed in folk tunes.

Awards
He received the Kumar Suvarna Chandrak award in 1963, and the Uma-Snehrashmi Prize (1972-1973). He received the Sahitya Akademi Award posthumously in 1982 for his poetry collection Lilero Dhal.

Personal life 
Maniyar married Ranjan in April 1956. They had two daughters, Jui and Gauri, born in 1959 and 1960, and one son, Nigam, born in 1963. Maniyar died on 25 June 1976 in Ahmedabad.

Last Days is a 2012 horror novel by the British author Adam Nevill. The book was first published in the United Kingdom on 24 May 2012 by Pan Macmillan and was published in the United States on 26 February 2013 through St. Martin's Griffin. It won the 2013 August Derleth Award for Best Horror Novel and film rights for Last Days were first optioned by Adam Storke in early 2014. The option has subsequently passed to another film production company.

Synopsis
The book follows Kyle Freeman, a guerrilla documentary maker who has been hired to make a film about the Temple of the Last Days. The cult is notorious for a horrific massacre in 1975 and was rumored to have indulged in occult rituals. Its leader, Sister Katherine, was said to have been highly paranoid and lived in the lap of luxury while her followers lived in squalor. Kyle decides that he will focus on the various myths surrounding the group, film the various locations that they have lived, and that he will also try to seek interviews with various people that were involved with the cult to varying extents. However the further Kyle explores the Temple of the Last Days, the more and more bizarre and strange things seem to become.

Reception
Critical reception for Last Days has been positive, and the work has received praise from HorrorNews.net and The Guardian. Tor.com and Bloody Disgusting both gave favorable reviews, and Tor.com wrote that "At its most powerful, Last Days is unputdownable: a non-stop docu-horror novel — ditto, a novel docu-horror — with a portentous premise, a pair of deftly-drawn characters to take us through its ill-lit outbuildings and at last into the eerie light, and staged along the way a series of solid scares, stitched together with good humour and a smart sense of self-awareness."

Donald Leigh Nicholas (October 30, 1930 — October 23, 2007) was an American professional baseball player who played from 1948 to 1959. Initially a shortstop in minor league baseball, then an outfielder, Nicholas received two brief trials in the Major Leagues with the  and  Chicago White Sox as a pinch hitter and pinch runner. The native of Phoenix, Arizona, batted left-handed, threw right-handed, stood  tall and weighed .

Nicholas originally signed with the Brooklyn Dodgers and was a successful base stealer during his minor league career, surpassing the 30-stolen-base mark at least three times during his career. Purchased by the White Sox after the 1951 minor league season, Nicholas made his MLB debut on April 16, 1952, when he pinch ran for Eddie Robinson in a 1–0 defeat at the hands of the Cleveland Indians. The following day, he pinch hit for pitcher Howie Judson and was retired by Mike Garcia. Four days later, he batted for Hal Brown and bounced out to St. Louis Browns pitcher Ned Garver.  After spending the rest of 1952 and all of 1953 in the White Sox' farm system, Nicholas made Chicago's opening day roster in 1954. He pinch hit once (and received a base on balls) and scored three runs, but was sent to the Triple-A Havana Sugar Kings at the May cutdown date and played the rest of his career in the minors.
