Micritisation is the activity of certain organisms in the clasts of carbonate sediments, whereby the organisms retract nutrients from the carbonate.  Micritisation is a process that falls under diagenesis of a sediment.

The organisms can be algae, fungi or bacteria.  These organisms bore small "tunnels" in the original crystals that the clasts were built from.  When the micritisation goes on long enough the process can form micritisation envelopes around the clast, especially with larger clast (such as shell fragments).

Micritisation disrupts the original crystal structure, chemical composition and structure of the clasts in the sediment.

Things That Matter: Three Decades of Passions, Pastimes and Politics is a nonfiction book by the Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Charles Krauthammer. It was at the top on The New York Times Non-Fiction Best Sellers List for four weeks, in January 2014.

Content
The book is a collection of essays written by Krauthammer over 30 years and includes essays originally published in The Washington Post, Time Magazine, The New Republic, and The Weekly Standard. It begins with a new introduction by the author.

The collection of articles is divided into four parts: personal, political, historical, and global. According to The National Review, it tackles "everything from embryo research to entitlement reform, from Halley’s Comet to border collies, from Christopher Columbus to Martin Luther King, from drone warfare to American decline."

Critical reception
The book was on The New York Times Nonfiction Bestseller list for more than 38 weeks. It was Number 1 on the list for four weeks in January 2014. It sold more than one million copies.

In The American Spectator, Aaron Goldstein argued that the book "ought to matter" because "Krauthammer’s analysis of the issues that have mattered most over the past thirty years have more often been right than wrong." He also highlighted Krauthammer's essay about the FDR Memorial, where Krauthammer argued against portraying FDR in a wheelchair, drawing a parallel with Krauthammer's silence about his own use of a wheelchair.

In The Washington Times, Michael Taube praised the book, writing that the writing was 'fresh, intelligent, compelling and thought-provoking.' Writing for Commentary, Peter Wehner called it "a marvelous, and at times quite moving, collection," adding that these articles Krauthammer's voice "matters so very much." He concluded that the book was about 'the duties of citizenship in a free society.'

Institute for Unpopular Culture (also known by the acronym, IFUC) is an alternative and outsider culture organization based in San Francisco, California.

History
It was founded in 1989 by David Ferguson.  IFUC's stated objective is to provide a range of services necessary for non-mainstream artists to fulfill their goals of artistic expression: public relations, counseling, business opportunities, and access to equipment. Ferguson said that IFUC provides artists with grants and other funding for their projects.

Ferguson called his approach to arts patronage "new philanthropy".  Much of the business that takes place at IFUC is volunteer-driven, or works given in trade.
Ferguson has said that IFUC arranged exhibitions of William Noguera's pen and ink photorealism—a sponsorship that raised eyebrows due to Noguera's status as a death row inmate at California's San Quentin State Prison.  Ferguson claimed that IFUC had also been associated with performance artist Holly Hughes, one of the infamous NEA Four, a quartet of artists who saw their NEA funding cut off because of concerns of indecency. Other talents Ferguson claimed to have benefited from IFUC backing including graffiti artist Barry McGee (a.k.a. "Twist")  and installation artist Joe Mangrum. Ferguson stated that The Institute helped launch the Punk Rock Orchestra, a San Francisco Bay Area music group which performs orchestral arrangements of punk rock classics.

Farrukhnagar railway station is a small railway station in Gurugram district, Haryana. Its code is FN. It serves Farrukhnagar city. The station consists of one platform. The platform is not well sheltered. It lacks many facilities including water and sanitation.

Farrukhnagar lies on a branch line which was laid in 1901 to Garhi Harsaru railway station from Farrukhnagar on Rajputana–Malwa Railway, For many years, the metre-gauge railway line was used to transport salt by steam locomotives and was closed in 2004 for gauge conversion. The converted broad-gauge track became operational in 2011. There has been a demand to extend the track to Jhajjar where it will join Rewari–Jhajjar–Rohtak railway line.

Currently six trains originate and terminate from Farrukhnagar which connects cities like Delhi, Saharanpur, Garhi Harsaru which main junction near the city.

Major trains 
Some of the important trains that run from Farrukhnagar are:

 Farrukhnagar–Delhi Passenger (unreserved)
 Farrukhnagar–Delhi Sarai Rohilla Passenger
 Farrukhnagar–Garhi Harsaru Passenger
 Farrukhnagar–Saharanpur Janta Express (unreserved)

Ajax Transit was a public transit operator in the Town of Ajax, Ontario, Canada.  Ajax Transit and Pickering Transit were merged on September 4, 2001, to form the Ajax Pickering Transit Authority (APTA).  APTA was merged into Durham Region Transit on January 1, 2006.

Routes
The following routes were operated:
Elm
Duffins
Beach
Harwood
Westney Heights
Village
Puckrin
Applecroft
Hospital
Flag Bus

History
In 1973, the Town of Ajax conducted a survey of potential transit ridership in Ajax. This led to bus service beginning in 1973, under a contract with Charterways Transportation Limited, which operated service using a fleet of school buses, with heaviest ridership between the Pickering Beach area and downtown Ajax.

In the late 1970s, public transit buses were acquired and began operations on the Elm, Duffins, and Beach routes, which exist to this day.  In the early 1980s, the Harwood, Westney Heights, and Village routes began service. Service on the Puckrin route began in the late 1980s.

In 1985, Ajax built a new transit garage and offices near the location of the Ajax GO Station. This location was ideal as Ajax Transit's routes all operated from the Ajax GO Station, providing a service that was tightly coordinated with the Lakeshore East train service of GO Transit. This facility remains in use as the 'DRT West' facility of Durham Region Transit, and DRT's Ajax routes continue to operate from the GO Station.

In 1991, Ajax Transit implemented a smart card fare system.  This system allowed riders to use stored-value cards to access transit services. This system was eliminated in 2001 with the formation of the Ajax Pickering Transit Authority. However, this system was very forward looking and foreshadowed the forthcoming Presto card, in which Ajax Transit's descendant Durham Region Transit will be a participant.

In 1992, Ajax town council authorized implementation of a town-operated transit system to replace the contracted services. Also in 1992, Ajax Transit introduced Flag Bug service in which cutaway vans could be flagged down at any point on a fixed route.

Durham Region Transit's Ajax operations remain heavily based on those operated by Ajax Transit.

Vapor Drawings (1983) is the debut solo album by the American trumpeter/synthesist Mark Isham.

It was the first album released on the Windham Hill label to belong to the electronic music genre. This album focuses more on Isham’s talents as an electronic composer than future releases. “Something Nice for My Dog” is purely electronic and “Men Before the Mirror” only features a brief segment of trumpet at the beginning.

The tone of the album ranges from sweeping and melancholy (“On the Threshold of Liberty”, “In the Blue Distance”) to light and humorous (“Something Nice for My Dog”, “Mr. Moto’s Penguin”).

The most experimental piece on the album is “Sympathy and Acknowledgement”, the full title of the song being "Thank you for your Sympathy and Acknowledgement of my Disease". This piece is centered on a complex arrangement of electronic sequences and processed trumpet and piano recordings.

The most famous piece on the album is a military-style march titled “On the Threshold of Liberty”. Over the years this piece has appeared on several Windham Hill samplers. A reworking of this piece was used as the theme of the 2000 film Rules of Engagement starring Samuel L. Jackson and Tommy Lee Jones. “On the Threshold of Liberty” takes its title from a 1929 painting by the Belgian surrealist René Magritte.

All instrumentation was performed by Isham except additional electronic percussion and snare drum by former Group 87 drummer Peter Van Hooke.

"Stargazer" is a song written, produced, and performed by English rock band Siouxsie and the Banshees. It was released as the second single from the band's 11th studio album, The Rapture. It was the band's last single released, due to their disbandment the following year.

Background and music
The track is an up-tempo, guitar-driven pop tune. It was slightly remixed by Mark Saunders for its single release, bringing the bass further forward in the mix. Club remixes were produced by Juno Reactor. Lyrically the song casts Siouxsie Sioux as a dreamer who looks up at the stars and wishes for a better life and to "escape this straitjacket of constraint".

"Stargazer" did not chart in the United States but peaked at No. 64 in the UK Singles Chart. As of , it is the final single released by the band. Shortly after the release of this single, Siouxsie and the Banshees disbanded, leaving Siouxsie and Budgie to direct their priorities to their other group the Creatures.

The single remix version (which originally appeared on the CD single) was included on The Best of Siouxsie and the Banshees (2002), rather than the album version; it was the only track from The Rapture to be included. The Saunders mix was also used in the music video for the song, which was featured on the DVD in the deluxe sound & vision edition of The Best Of.
