Grudziądz Granaries () is a unique 14th-century fortification complex of river bank granaries on the Vistula river in Grudziądz, Poland.

History
After the Teutonic Order founded the settlement of present-day Grudziądz in 1291, the Order began building fortifications encompassing the town in the fourteenth-century. Formerly, a line of fortifications already existed on a scarp to the west of the settlement. It was in the years 1346-51 that the first granary, Bornwald Granary, was built, followed by several in 1364. By 1504, around modern-day Spichrzowa Street (lit. Granary Street), fourteen granaries had already been constructed, reflecting the importance of Grudziądz in trade of craftsmanship in the region. A century later, there were 16 granaries. The construction of the granaries on top of the town walls along the Vistula river was done so to be in close proximity with the river port, and thus take advantage of the flourishing grain trade. Due to the different elevations of town and river, the granaries, which from the river side look like imposing multi-stories buildings, from the town side feature only one or two floors. 

Other than for grain trading purposes, the granaries performed other functions, i.e. one of the granaries, between 1603 and 1608 (or 1618) served as a Lutheran place of worship. During the Deluge at the hand of the Swedes, most of the granaries were burned down and only six had survived during the Swedish siege of Grudziądz. Rebuilding works lasted until the eighteenth-century, as a consequence of which, in relation to the former granary plans, those rebuilt had been less wide, covering smaller parcels of land individually. The following, nineteenth-century, further framework granaries had been built along the river scarp and riverfront (presently non-existent). Five granaries burned down in 1903, some were utilised for housing via enlarging windows and creating balconies on each elevation.

A monumental amount of damage occurred during the final Soviet Vistula–Oder Offensive during 1945. The granaries were rebuilt between 1946 and 1966. Presently, some of the granary building still perform their storage function, some have been adapted for residential use, whilst others are occupied by the Museum of Grudziądz.

Karl-Marx-Hof (English: Karl Marx Court) is one of the best-known Gemeindebauten (English: municipal housing complexes) in Vienna, situated in Heiligenstadt, a neighbourhood of the 19th district of Vienna, Döbling.

At over a kilometre in length –  – and spanning four Straßenbahn (tram) stops, Karl-Marx-Hof is one of the longest single residential buildings in the world.

Development
Karl-Marx-Hof was built on land that, until the 12th century, had been under the waters of the Danube, deep enough for ships to travel over the area.

By 1750, all that remained was a pool of water, which was drained on the order of Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II. Gardens were then built in the area, but these were removed by the Vienna city council, then under the "Red Vienna" period of control by the Social Democratic Party of Austria to make room for the erection of Karl-Marx-Hof, financed by a special tax named after councillor Hugo Breitner, commissioning locally and internationally renowned architects.

Karl-Marx-Hof was built between 1927 and 1930 by city planner Karl Ehn, a follower of Otto Wagner. It held 1,382 apartments (with a size of 30–60 m2 each). Only 18.5% of the 156,000 m2-large area was built up, with the rest of the area developed into play areas and gardens. Designed for a population of about 5,000, the premises include many amenities, including laundromats, baths, kindergartens, a library, doctor's offices, and business offices.

Austrian Civil War, Austrofascism, and the Anschluss

Karl-Marx-Hof was well known during the February Uprising () of the 1934 Austrian Civil War (). Those insurgents engaged in the revolt barricaded themselves inside the building and were forced to surrender after the Austrian army, the police, and the Austrofascist paramilitary Heimwehr bombarded the site regardless of the unarmed dwellers, mainly worker families, with light artillery.  During the Anschluss, Karl-Marx-Hof was renamed Heiligenstädter Hof, but took its original name back in 1945.

Today
The heavy artillery damage to Karl-Marx-Hof was repaired in the 1950s. It has been used as a filming location for some movies, most notably The Night Porter.  The building was refurbished between 1989 and 1992.

National Route 8 (N8) is a  north-south major primary national route that forms part of the Philippine Highway Network in the province of Cebu. There are two highways that make up the road: the Cebu North Road and Natalio Bacalso Avenue (also known as the Cebu South Road). It runs from Danao to Santander. The highway also forms part of the Philippine Nautical Highway System, particularly the Central Nautical Highway from Danao to Cebu City and Western Nautical Highway from Cebu City to Santander.

History 
The highways of N8 were possibly constructed during the American period. The route's direct predecessor is Cebu Island's Highway 1 that existed during the 20th century.

Around 2014-2017, national routes were added, two roads (Cebu North Road; Cebu City to Danao and Natalio Bacalso Avenue; Cebu City to Santander) assigned as National Route 8 (N8) by the Department of Public Works and Highways.

Route description

Danao to Cebu City 

N8 begins at Cebu North Road at the route transitioning from N810 in Danao. It then passes the future terminus of the Metro Cebu Expressway. The route then traverses the towns of Compostela and Liloan, where it veers away from the eastern coast of Cebu towards Consolacion and Mandaue. In Mandaue, it is locally known as M.C. Briones Street and Lopez-Jaena Street. It then enters Cebu City, locally known as M.J. Cuenco Avenue.

Cebu City 

In Cebu City, the route turns northwest at a junction from M.J. Cuenco Avenue to General Maxilom Avenue. At the latter's western terminus at the Fuente Osmeña Circle, the route then turns north and south, thus covering Osmeña Boulevard's section from the Cebu Provincial Capitol to Natalio Bacalso Avenue/P. Del Rosario Street, where the route turns west at a junction with the latter and continues towards southern Cebu.

Cebu City to Santander 

The route continues as Natalio Bacalso Avenue, traversing the southeastern coastal communities of Talisay, Minglanilla, Naga, San Fernando, Carcar (where the road continues around the Carcar City Circle), Sibonga, Argao, Dalaguete, Alcoy, Boljoon, Oslob, Santander, and Samboan. In Samboan, it terminates at its transition with N830.

In a supply chain, a vendor, supplier, provider or a seller, is an enterprise that contributes goods or services. Generally, a supply chain vendor manufactures inventory/stock items and sells them to the next link in the chain. Today, these terms refer to a supplier of any goods or service.

Description
A vendor is a supply chain management term that means anyone who provides goods or services of experience to another entity. Vendors may sell B2B (business-to-business; i.e., to other companies), B2C (business to consumers or Direct-to-consumer), or B2G (business to government). Some vendors manufacture inventoriable items and then sell those items to customers, while other vendors offer services or experiences.
The term vendor and the term supplier are often used indifferently. The difference is that the vendors sells the goods or services while the supplier provides the goods or services. In most of business context, except retail, this difference has no impact and words are interchangeable.

Typically vendors are tracked in either a finance system or a warehouse management system.

Vendors are often managed with a vendor compliance checklist or vendor quality audits, and these activities can be effectively managed by software tools.

Purchase orders are usually used as a contractual agreement with vendors to buy goods or services.

Vendors may or may not function as distributors or manufacturers of goods. If vendors are also manufacturers, they may either build to stock or build to order.

"Vendor" is often a generic term, used for suppliers of industries from retail sales to manufacturers to city organizations. The term generally applies only to the immediate seller, or the organization that is paid for the goods, rather than to the original manufacturer or the organization performing the service if it is different from the immediate supplier.

Types
There are four basic sorts of vendors in the supply chain, and the companies and business owners play diverse responsibilities.

Manufacturers: A raw material, when transformed into finished goods, is with the help of the manufacturers. 

Retailer: A retailer is a reseller who sells things in a store or online, such as apparel, office supplies, street vendors selling hot dogs, and so on. 

A Service Provider provides a service, such as maintenance or labour, to customers. Consulting and janitorial services and many other such are two examples.

A Wholesaler sources products from manufacturers and resells them to retail establishments, distributors, and other buyers. They serve as a crucial intermediary in the supply chain, offering competitive pricing and convenient purchasing options.

There must be a vendor relationship with a supplier if a small firm or a major organization wants to resell a product. Vendor registration entails several steps in the process, including completing a credit application, placing a company credit card on file for payments, giving them your company phone number, and establishing payment terms.

Robomart is an American technology company and store-hailing platform headquartered in Santa Monica, California. The company has deployed automated stores on wheels that can be hailed to a customer's home. Instead of delivering products the company delivers the entire store which cuts out order and pickup times giving it advantages over delivery.

The Robomart app shows different robomart types, allows users to view products and pricing, and then order a store to their location. After customers have taken goods from the robomart, their order is automatically calculated, their card on file is charged and they are sent a receipt.

History 

Robomart was founded in 2017 by Ali Ahmed, Tigran Shahverdyan, and Emad Suhail Rahim. The company debuted at CES 2018 where it unveiled its concept of a self-driving store.

At GITEX 2018 the company presented its first functional prototype of a fully driverless Robomart. At the 2019 Consumer Electronics Show the company demonstrated the technology behind its autonomous stores and checkout-free shopping experience.

In January 2019, Robomart announced its first partnership with U.S. grocery chain Stop & Shop to test its driverless stores.

In December 2020, Robomart deployed the Pharmacy Robomart in a trial in West Hollywood.

In June 2021, the company launched its commercial service with a fleet of Pharmacy and Snacks Robomarts operating within West Hollywood and Central Hollywood. 

In December 2021, Business Insider named Robomart’s Head of Operations Peter Killackey as a power player of rapid delivery.

Partnerships 
In September 2019, Robomart partnered with Avery Dennison to source the RFID tags used to enable its checkout-free shopping experience. In December 2020, Robomart partnered with Zeeba Vans to provide vehicles for its growing fleet. In June 2021, Robomart partnered with REEF Technology to provide inventory management and restocking services. In addition, REEF's Light Speed grocery division serves as the first merchant selling products through Robomart.

Products 
The company currently operates two store types. The pharmacy Robomart sells health and personal care items such as shampoo, hand sanitizer and ibuprofen, and the snacks Robomart features chocolates, chips, soft drinks and other snack items.

Soe Moe Hlaing (; 1968 — 24 May 2021), also known as Mae Gyi (), was a Burmese pro-democracy activist and political prisoner.

Personal life and family
Born in 1968, Soe Moe Hlaing was one of eleven siblings. The most notable of these siblings is Lt. General Than Hlaing, who is the current Deputy Minister of Home Affairs and Chief of the Myanmar Police Force (MPF). Soe Moe Hlaing was a chemistry honours student at Yangon University. In 2006, he married Myat Muyar Win, with whom he had five children. He died in military custody on 24 May 2021.

Political career
Soe Moe Hlaing was active in the 1988 pro-democracy uprising, before joining the All Burma Students' Democratic Front (ABSDF), an armed, pro-democracy group as a battalion commander. He was allegedly threatened with decapitation by his brother Than Hlaing, as he had taken up arms against the Myanmar military.

After returning home in 1991, he was arrested and sentenced to 13 years in prison for his involvement in the ABSDF. When released in 2001, he volunteered to do charity work. During this time he founded a community based tourism network for local development, and also established the Winkabaw Ex-Political Prisoner Education Network, which offered free education to family members of political prisoners.

On 22 May 2021, in the aftermath of the 2021 Myanmar coup d'état, an informant allegedly told troops about their whereabouts and he was arrested along with eight others. On 24 May 2021, his family was notified that he had died.

The Big Blue was a Lampson LTL-1500 Transi-Lift heavy lift crawler crane that collapsed on July 14, 1999, killing three iron workers.

Accident
On July 14, 1999, at approximately 5:12 pm, the Big Blue collapsed during the construction of the Miller Park (now American Family Field) baseball stadium in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with a load of over  on the hook. Three Iron Workers Local 8 members, Jeffrey Wischer, William DeGrave, and Jerome Starr, were killed when the suspended personnel platform in which they were observing the lift was hit by the falling crane. A safety inspector was filming construction of the stadium on that day and captured the collapse on video as it occurred.

Wind speeds were between , with gusts of up to , at the time of the collapse. The boom was rated to , and other workers had expressed concern at the speed of the wind.

An investigation revealed that although the effects of side winds on the crane itself had been calculated, it had not been considered for the load the crane was lifting.

Aftermath and memorial
Three firms were fined a total of over  as a result of the collapse. The widows of the workers, Marjorie DeGrave, Ramona Dulde-Starr and Patricia Wischer, settled a lawsuit against Mitsubishi Heavy Industries of America, the company responsible for constructing the retractable roof of the stadium, for an undisclosed total of over $99 million.

Teamwork, a bronze sculpture by Omri Amrany, was installed at Miller Park in 2001 to honor the three workers. The Brewers wore an Ironworkers Local 8 memorial patch on the left breast of their jerseys following the accident for the remainder of the 1999 season.

Work on Miller Park was later completed with a new crane, a red and white Van Seumeren Demag CC-12600.
