The Duals were an American surf rock duo formed in Los Angeles, California, in 1961. Much of the collaboration's music capitalized on the style of music popularized in Southern California in the early 1960s. They reached the national charts with their song "Stick Shift" which became the Duals' only Top 40 hit. A studio album named after the Duals' hit song was released the following year.

History 
The Duals featured the partnership of Henry Bellinger (lead guitar) and Johnny Lageman (rhythm guitar), two friends who lived in the same neighborhood in Los Angeles. In 1961, the duo approached H. B. Barnum with hopes that the record producer would record them in Hollywood. Barnum, however, had little faith in the songs the Duals had written, but recommended them to Ron Barrett, an aspiring producer who recently established his own record label, Star Revue. Barrett was more receptive to the duo's simple, but upbeat, sound influenced by California's burgeoning surf scene. After extensive rehearsals, the Duals recorded "Stick Shift" and "Cruising". Not yet satisfied, Barrett audio mixed car noises and police sirens to "Stick Shift", the intended A-side to their debut single.

Sensing potential in "Stick Shift", Barrett took the single to Sonny Bono who helped the record receive extensive airplay in California. Sue Records bought the master tapes and distributed the single to wider audiences late in 1961. The single, the first instrumental hot rod recording to chart nationally, influenced the popularity of car songs as it reached number 25 on the Billboard Hot 100. Following the release of "Stick Shift", the Duals performed in Philadelphia and New York City. Despite their success, neither the Duals nor Star Revue, however, received any royalties from Sue Records for record sales until 2004.

In late 1961, the duo released their first and only studio album, named after their hit song. Two singles, "Cha Cha Guitars" and "The Big Race", were also released later in the year but flopped immediately. The Duals disbanded soon after. In 1996, Stick Shift was reissued on CD on Collectables Records.

The 347th Infantry Division () was an infantry division of the German Army during the Second World War, active from 1942 to 1945. Initially based in the Netherlands, it saw active service on the Western Front and was redesignated as a Volksgrenadier division in May 1945.

Operational history

The 347th Infantry Division was formed in September 1942 as a static division of two regiments of fortress infantry. Under the command of Generalleutnant Friedrich Bayer, the following month it was sent to the Netherlands to the coastline near Amsterdam and its original two regiments later each received an infantry battalion of volunteer troops from Turkestan and the Caucasus. It remained here for several months until after the Invasion of Normandy.

Now commanded by Generalleutnant Wolf Trierenberg, the division was then transferred to France to reinforce Army Group B which was engaged in the fighting in Normandy. It gradually retreated into Belgium and was involved in the fighting along the Siegfried Line. By September it had been reduced to a Kampfgruppe and the following month it received reinforcements in the form of training battalions from the 526th Replacement Division. The 880th Infantry Regiment was also attached to the division. It continued to be engaged on the Western Front, including the Battle of Hürtgen Forest.

The division was then involved in the defense of Saarbrücken. In March 1945, a new divisional commander, Generalleutnant Maximilian Siry took over from Trierenberg but his time in command was brief. On 10 April he became trapped and surrendered to Allied troops. Trierenberg returned to command the division, which was now in Thuringia. It was designated a Volksgrenadier division on 7 May 1945 and surrendered to Allied forces the following day.

Sambalhera is an ancient village in Jansath Tehsil of Muzaffarnagar district, Uttar Pradesh, India, 6 km from Jansath town. Chhatraudi branch of Sadat Bahera settled here in the 11th century. Many ancient and medieval tombs of Barha generals are still there.

History
Sayyid Hasan Fakhruddin was the first Zaidi Sayyid who settled down here in 1104/1106 AD, who came here from Chattbanur, a village in Patiala district of Punjab, India. Sayyid Hasan's mazaar is in Sambhalhera. Sayyid Hasan was a direct descendant of Sayyid Abu'l Farah Al Hussaini Al Wasti, who came to India from Wasit, a town of Iraq situated on Iraq-Iran border, on the request of Mahmoud of Ghazni. By the beginning of the 20th century, Zaidi Sadaat originating from Sambalhera were living in about 85 cities in India.

Sambalhera is listed in the Ain-i-Akbari as a pargana under the sarkar of Saharanpur, producing a revenue of 1,011,078 dams for the imperial treasury. It is not mentioned as providing soldiers to the Mughal army, but the presence of its Sayyid community is noted.

Places
This village is one of the biggest villages in the area, having a population of more than 12,000 people. People from all the religions there are living peacefully and celebrate each other's happiness.

Half a kilometer away is the ancient Shri Krishan Rudeshwar Panchmukhi Mahadev Siddhpeeth of Pashupati Nath temple (temple of Shiva). This temple placed third in Asia. There is a fruit garden near the temple.

For more information you can go to page:- https://www.facebook.com/panchmukhishiva/info#

It was built in the 18th century.

Many people visit the temple to worship of God. On the occasion of every festival like Mahashivratri, Navratras, Shri Krishan Janmashtmi, a Bhandara is organized by the villagers collectively.

Occupation
In the old days agricultural activities were the primary occupation. Now, villagers also earn money by providing services, going out in search of jobs. Many villagers work abroad, but others work in India in both the private and public sectors.

Etihad Campus is a tram stop on the East Manchester Line (EML) of Greater Manchester's light-rail Metrolink system. The stop is located adjacent to the City of Manchester Stadium (also known as the Etihad Stadium). The stop has a staggered platform layout, and has wide platforms in order to cope with large crowds which use the stop on match days or other events at the stadium.

Initially intended to be known as Sportcity-Stadium, after the Sportcity area it serves, the proposal was changed following the announcement of Manchester City's Etihad Campus project. The station opened on 11 February 2013, after a three-day free trial for local residents. The station was constructed as part of Phase 3a of the Metrolink's expansion.

Services
Services are mostly every 12 minutes on all routes.

Additional trams and double trams run at events such as football matches and concerts at the nearby Etihad Stadium. A stabling siding to accommodate waiting trams prior to the event finishing has been constructed to allow quicker transportation of people following the conclusion of such events.

The AN/ALE-55 Fiber-Optic Towed Decoy, or ALE-55, is an RF (Radio Frequency) countermeasure under development by BAE Systems Electronic Solutions for the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet.

Overview 

The ALE-55 is an RF countermeasure designed to protect an aircraft from radar guided missiles. It consists of an aircraft-towed decoy and onboard electronics. It works together with the aircraft's electronic warfare system to provide radar jamming. In addition, it can also be used in a backup mode as a signal repeater, which allows it to lure incoming missiles away from their actual target. It is currently in use with the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet, but can be adapted to a wide variety of platforms with minimal modification.

Defensive Techniques 

The ALE-55 provides three layers of defensive jamming against a radar-based threat: preventing radars from tracking, breaking radar locks, and acting as a target for incoming missiles.

Suppression 

The system detects a threat radar in its acquisition mode and tries to prevent it from locking by using jamming techniques.  The onboard electronic warfare package analyzes the threat, while the towed decoy emits the jamming signals to confuse the tracking radar.

Deflection 

In the case that a radar obtains a lock on the aircraft or decoy system, the electronics on board the aircraft analyze the emissions and then determine the optimum jamming technique to break the radar lock. The jamming is done by the decoy. The ALE-55 also possesses the useful ability to send out multiple jamming frequencies if more than one radar is locked on to the decoy or aircraft.

Seduction 

When a missile launch is detected, indicated by the difference in radar signal and type, the ALE-55 runs a last resort attempt to protect the aircraft towing it.  This last resort is becoming the target, rather than the aircraft, by trying to jam the missile or simulating the aircraft's radar signature.

Components 

The ALE-55 consists of two components. An onboard signal conditioning assembly and fiber optic towed decoys.

The onboard electric frequency converter analyzes radar signals detected by the plane's electronic warfare system and calculates an appropriate jamming and spoofing signal, which is then transmitted to the FOTD through a fiber optic cable.

The towed decoy has dual high power traveling-wave tubes (TWTs) to allow for enough power to protect large aircraft. It is launched with the Raytheon Integrated Multi-Platform Launch Controller (IMPLC), which it shares with the towed ALE-50. A braking system allows for fast deployment.

Tarnak Farms was an Afghan training camp near Kandahar, which served as a base to Osama bin Laden and his followers from 1998 to 2001.

9/11 hijackers believed to have trained at Tarnak Farms

Home to bin Laden 
In 1998, bin Laden moved his followers from Nazim Jihad to Tarnak Farms following Northern Alliance threats to attack Jalalabad.

Video of Tarnak Farms in 2000 made by the Central Intelligence Agency appeared to show bin Laden at the location. The administration of U.S. President Bill Clinton considered seizing bin Laden at Tarnak Farm, but the mission was never carried out due to concerns about killing innocent women and children, as well as legal disagreements within the administration.

The Tarnak Farms facility housed an al-Qaeda poison and explosive training laboratory and an advanced operational training camp. Operatives of al Qaeda received advanced operational training at the facility, including urban assault.

Tarnak Farm incident 

On April 17, 2002, a friendly fire incident occurred when four Canadian soldiers of the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry were killed at Tarnak Farms while conducting a live-fire training exercise. While flying an F-16, American pilot Harry Schmidt dropped a 227-kilogram laser-guided bomb on the Canadian position.

The bomb killed Canadian Forces Sgt Marc Leger, Cpl Ainsworth Dyer, Pte Richard Green and Pte Nathan Lloyd Smith and wounded eight CF soldiers.

John Carl  (May 28, 1854 – October 2, 1927) was an American baseball player.

Carl played in one game for the 1874 Baltimore Canaries of the National Association. He was 0-for-3 that day, and the Canaries lost to the New York Mutuals, 15-1, en route to 9-38 season, after which they folded.

Three years later, in 1877, Carl appeared in eight games for the Manchester, New Hampshire club of the International Association, a quasi-major league that featured many players that would later play in the real big leagues, including John O'Rourke, brother of "Orator" Jim O'Rourke. He managed three hits in 27 at bats for a .111 average.

John Carl died on October 2, 1927 in Baltimore, Maryland at the age of 73.
