Moshe Greenwald (1853–1910), also spelled Grunwald, a rabbi in Hungary at the end of the 19th century. He was the rabbi of Chust, Hungary and progenitor of the Pupa Hasidic dynasty through his son Yaakov Yechezkiya. He was also the author of Arugas Habosem, a book of responsa covering halakhic issues.

Biography 
He was the eldest son of Amram Greenwald and studied at the yeshiva of Menachem Katz in Deutschkreutz with his grandfather Yosef Greenwald, and at the Pressburg Yeshiva under Avraham Shmuel Binyamin Sofer.
His father died when he was twenty and he worked in timber trading, while continuing his studies. He married his relative Zissel Gestetner.
  
At the age of twenty-six he began working as a rabbi in Humenné in Hungary (today in Slovakia). In 1887 he became rabbi of Kisvárda in Hungary. Greenwald was originally from a non-hasidic family but as a young man he became a hasid and was a disciple of the second Belzer rebbe, Yehoshua Rokeach.

Greenwald was a rabbi in Humenné, where he established a yeshiva. He became the rabbi of Kisvárda and in 1887 he moved to Khust, where he also headed a yeshiva. In 1893, Greenwald became rabbi of the city of Khost in Hungary (now in Ukraine).

Greenwald opposed Reform Judaism and any deviation from traditional orthodox Judaism.

His descendants include his sons Yaakov Yechezkiya Greenwald, Yaakov's son Yosef Greenwald, and Yosef's son Yaakov Yechezkiya Greenwald II. His students included Leopold Greenwald.

The Kazbegi (), originally known as Chopikashvili (ჩოფიკაშვილი), was an influential clan from the northeastern highland Georgian district of Khevi. 
Of a semi-legendary noble descent, the Chopikashvili rose in prominence under the Georgian king Erekle II at the end of the 18th century, when the clan's leader Kazi-Beg was made an official (mouravi) in the village Stepantsminda and placed in charge of collecting tolls on travelers through the key road to the North Caucasus.

Kazi-Beg's son Gabriel was made an aznauri, noble of a lower rank, and adopted the surname Kazbegi (Kazbek). He played a role in the Russian-Georgian interaction and pledged his loyalty to the Russians upon their annexation of Georgia in 1801. When the Georgian princes of the deposed Bagrationi dynasty rallied Georgian and Ossetian highlanders against the Tsar's rule in 1804, Gabriel Kazbegi fought in the Russian ranks and was promoted to major. The clan ran Stepan-Tsminda – henceforth frequently referred to as Kazbek in Russian accounts – and Khevi as their fief. Gabriel's son Mikheil (1805—1876) fought in the Caucasian War and was made a major general of the Russian army in 1859. Mikheil's son was the famed Georgian prose writer Alexander Kazbegi.

Aaron Stonehouse (born 29 June 1990) is an Australian politician. He was elected to the Western Australian Legislative Council at the 2017 state election, as a Liberal Democratic Party member in South Metropolitan Region. His term began on 22 May 2017. He lost his seat at the WA State election on 13 March 2021.

Political career 
Stonehouse was elected to the Western Australian Legislative Council at the 2017 state elections, as a Liberal Democratic Party member for the South Metropolitan Region.
Since his election, he has been a strong and vocal advocate for a range of issues centred upon personal choice, and personal responsibility.  He has been an active proponent of drug reform, and has also advocated for a range of amendments to the WA legal system, to allow for trial by judge alone, and to return judicial discretion to property confiscation cases arising from drug declarations.

In September 2019, Stonehouse fulfilled a long-held commitment by tabling a private members bill, the Firearms Amendment (Airsoft) Bill 2019, which would have legalised the popular sport of airsoft in Western Australia.  Although still live at the conclusion of the 40th Parliament, the Bill was stalled by the Labor Government who, in spite of a substantial petition in favour of legalisation, refused to support the legislation.

Stonehouse has also been a vocal advocate for the legalisation of vaping in Western Australia.  He was appointed as the WA spokesperson for Legalise Vaping Australia in July 2018, and the Parliamentary Select Committee he chaired later that year looking into nanny state laws received considerable evidence on vaping as a potential quitting aid for those who currently smoke.  In November 2020, Stonehouse tabled one of the largest petitions received in the 40th Parliament, totalling 7176 signatures, calling for amendments to the Tobacco Control Act 2006 (WA), to legalise the sale of vaping devices in Western Australia, alongside amendments to the Medicines and Poisons Act 2014 (WA), to allow for the sale and use of nicotine in such devices.

An advocate of free market economics, Stonehouse is on the record as stating that he would "not vote for increases in taxes, or new laws that add to the burden of regulation".

In late 2020, the Liberal Democrats WA endorsed Stonehouse to defend his seat as their lead candidate in the South Metropolitan Region at the March 2021 election.  He lost, receiving 0.85% of the initial vote and 7.08% after preferences.

Fast-A-Thon is an event held in the month of Ramadan on university campuses in North America to create awareness about the issue of hunger, and also about the Islamic way of life and Muslims. Muslim student organizations, typically the Muslim Students' Association (MSA) get students of all faith to sign up to fast for a day according to Islamic traditions, and for each person that fasts, arrangements are made for a certain amount to be donated to charity on behalf of the person fasting. They usually are also invited to break their fasts with other Muslims at the end of the fasting day.   

The University of Tennessee Muslim Student Association held the first Fast-a-Thon in 2001 after the September 11, 2001 attacks and founded a national event that included students at over 230 colleges and universities in 2006. The event also is held to help dispel misconceptions about Islam and Muslims. An event at the University of Michigan has been held annually for over a decade. Other establishments supporting this event are the University of Florida, University of Washington, and the University of Waterloo.

Fast-a-Thon is now an annual event held during Ramadan.  If the month of Ramadan falls outside of the universities academic calendar, the MSA may choose another time to hold Fast-A-Thon. The initiative is supported by the global humanitarian organization Action Against Hunger, and has been used annually as part of fundraising efforts for various charities.

Vilayat Galgayche, formely known as Ingush Jamaat, was an Islamist militant organization connected to numerous attacks against the local and federal security forces in the Russian regions of Ingushetia and Chechnya in the North Caucasus.  Since 2007 it has been a part of the Caucasus Emirate and takes part in the Insurgency in the North Caucasus. The group is thought to be responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people, mostly policemen, military personnel and officials.

History
After the Second Chechen War broke out, many of the Ingush fighters did not participate in the war as it was viewed as a nationalist movement. Some of them still felt closely related to their destroyed home-city Grozny started rebuilding their military units in Ingushetia, still loyal to Aslan Maskhadov and Basayev. In 2000-2001 the jamaat was reformed along territorial lines in Ingushetia proper, with many units tied to a single city or area. Following the changes in the organisation, all Ingush units started working under the unified Jamaat Shariat (not to be confused with Dagestan's Shariat Jamaat). In 2004 the Jamaat was renamed to Shariat Special Operations Group in accordance with the wishes of Maskhadov; later this changed to Ingush sector of the South-Western Front and, when Abdul-Halim Sadulayev created the Caucasian Front in 2005, Sadulayev referred to it as the Ingush sector of the Caucasus Front. Throughout its many name changes it was mostly referred to simply as the Ingush Jamaat.

The group played a key role in the 2004 Nazran raid, an important event which helped to escalate the low-level Ingush insurgency since 2002 into the increasing unrest and eventually into a "civil war", in which more than 800 people died in this tiny republic of less than 500,000 by November 2008. It also took part in the 2005 Nalchik raid, organized by the local Kabardino-Balkar group Yarmuk Jamaat. Following the death of Ilyas Gorchkhanov in Nalchik, the leader of the Ingush Jamaat was Akhmed Yevloyev until his capture in June 2010. Later in 2010, the Vilayat adopted more nationalist rhetoric, vowing to "temporarily" stop killing Ingush policemen and instead attack targets in North Ossetia and help to reclaim the native Ingush lands of Prigorodny District. The group also reaffirmed its loyalty to Umarov following the rejection of his leadership by the Chechen rebels in 2010. The capture or killing of many Vilayat commanders from 2010 onwards coincided with a decline in the insurgency in Ingushetia, with the number of attacks falling substantially over the next 5 years.

In July 2015, a video was released showing the leader of the Ingush Vilayat, Beslan Makhauri, alongside his Chechen counterpart Aslan Byutukayev, pledging allegiance to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

The Egyptian Council of Churches is an organization representing different churches in Egypt, including the Coptic Orthodox Church, as well as Coptic Catholic, Evangelical, Coptic Pentecostal, Armenian Orthodox and Greek Orthodox churches. The council's formation was announced in January 2013. Its first meeting was held on February 18, 2013, at Saint Mark's Coptic Orthodox Cathedral in Cairo, and was chaired by Pope Tawadros II of Alexandria. Representatives chose Tawadros II as the council's first president. The presidency is set to rotate every three years between the different church leaders.

The council aims to unite Egypt's Christian churches, while retaining the independence of each, to facilitate Muslim-Christian dialogue, and to discuss various social and political issues from a Christian perspective, such as abortion, the constitution and the personal status law. Marking the first anniversary of its formation in February 2014, the council stated that it has no political goals and that it would back no candidate in the country's 2014 presidential election. When it was announced, the idea received widespread support from Egypt's different Christian communities, and its formation was praised by Bishop Munib Younan of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan and the Holy Land.

Cheb–Hranice v Čechách railway is the number 148 railway of the Czech Republic, which is partially electrified at . It is operated by Czech Railways and mainly Czech-made ČD Class 814 and ČD Class 810 locomotives are on the line.

History

Between Cheb and Aš 
The section between Cheb and Aš was built in 1865 by Bavarian Railways. Railway station of Cheb was opened in the same year, but was destroyed by heavy bombing at the end of World War II. An interim one was built, which was replaced by the current one in 1962.

Between Aš and Hranice v Čechách
The section from Asch (Aš) to Roßbach (Hranice v Čechách) was built from 1884 to 1885. It was opened on 26 September 1885 and contributed to the improvement of Hranice's textile manufacturing. The station at Asch belonged to the Bavarian Railways, so locally it was called the Bavarian railway station. The town's second station was built by the Imperial Royal Privileged Austrian State Railway Company. Until 2002 there was also a third, suburban railway station in Aš, which today is only a single-platform halt with a metal shelter. The Bavarian station was demolished in 1968 and replaced by a new one in 1969. It is the main railway station of the town. Aš-město (the town's second station) was renovated in 2008.

Route
The railway starts from the main railway station at Cheb and runs through Františkovy Lázně Aquaforum, Františkovy Lázně, Vojtanov and Hazlov before arriving at Aš, where there are Aš – hlavní nádraží (Aš railway station), and Aš-město (Aš town) stations.

In the 1980s all trains from Cheb went as far as Hranice v Čechách; during the following decade there were fewer connections between Aš-město and Hranice v Čechách. In 2008 there was only one pair of trains on this part of the line.
