King of Stage is the debut solo album by American R&B singer Bobby Brown. Following his exit from New Edition, and at 16, Brown signed a solo deal with the group's label MCA Records, which had earlier promised Brown a solo deal if he decided to leave New Edition. His first solo album was released in 1986.

The album spawned the singles "Girlfriend", "Seventeen", and "Girl Next Door". None of the singles were major US Hot 100 hits, however, Brown had a number-one R&B hit with the first single, the ballad, "Girlfriend".

Production
The album was produced by Larry Blackmon and John Luongo; Brown and Luongo produced the title track. Brown was unhappy with the production, and elected to go with proven producers for his next album.

Reception

AllMusic wrote that "as enjoyable as the Blackmon-produced tracks are, top honors must go to 'Seventeen' -- a riveting account of a teenage mother who turns to drugs and prostitution -- and the unapologetically sentimental, '70s-like soul ballad 'Girlfriend'." The Los Angeles Times called the album "an ill-conceived mess" marked by a "lack of focus, inconsistent production and mostly inferior material." The Boston Globe deemed it "a versatile blend of street funk, rap and ballads."

Nubl (, also spelled Nubbul or Nubbol) is a small city in northern Syria, administratively part of the Aleppo Governorate, located northwest of Aleppo. Nearby localities include al-Zahraa immediately to the south, Anadan to the southeast, Tel Rifaat to the northeast, Aqiba to the north, Barad to the west, and Mayer immediately to the east. According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), Nubl had a population of 21,039 in the 2004 census. Its inhabitants are predominantly Shia Muslims and together with nearby al-Zahraa, Nubl forms a small Shia-inhabited pocket in a mostly Sunni Muslim area in the Aleppo Governorate.

Syrian Civil War

Nubl and al-Zahraa were under siege by the anti-government Free Syrian Army (FSA), al-Nusra Front (al-Qaeda's Syrian branch), and Ahrar al-Sham. Movement out of Nubl was severely curtailed, and it relied on goods being airlifted by the Syrian Army. Although relations between the inhabitants of Nubl and the surrounding villages were normally friendly, during the ongoing Syrian civil war, anti-government supporters from nearby Sunni villages have claimed that Nubl and al-Zahraa hosted pro-government militias that have launched attacks against opposition supporters. There were numerous tit-for-tat kidnappings between Nubl and pro-opposition villages in the vicinity. After months of rebel siege and continuous reciprocal kidnappings, popular committees in the two towns agreed to begin negotiations with Sunni rebels on 27 March 2013. The agreement to negotiate was organised by Kurdish parties from the neighboring Kurd Dagh region, which is controlled by Kurdish fighters of the PYD. The talks were brokered by Kurds, and several kidnapped individuals were freed on both sides.

On 3 February 2016, an offensive by the Syrian Arab Army and Hezbollah ended the siege.

Persoonia cornifolia is a plant in the family Proteaceae and is endemic to eastern Australia. It is a shrub with elliptic to egg-shaped leaves and hairy yellow flowers, and grows in northern New South Wales and south-eastern Queensland.

Description
Persoonia cornifolia is an erect or spreading shrub with hairy young growth. The leaves are elliptic to egg-shaped,  long,  wide and flat with the edges more or less turned downwards. The leaves are hairy when young but become glabrous with age. The flowers are arranged in small groups in leaf axils with a scale leaf at the base of each flower. Each flower is on the end of a densely hairy pedicel  long. The flower is composed of four hairy tepals  long, which are fused at the base but with the tips rolled back. The central style is surrounded by four yellow anthers that are also joined at the base with the tips rolled back, so that it resembles a cross when viewed end-on. The ovary is usually hairy. Flowering occurs from December to February and is followed by fruit which are green drupes.

Taxonomy and naming
Persoonia cornifolia was first formally described in 1830 by Robert Brown from an unpublished manuscript by Allan Cunningham. Brown's description was published in Supplementum primum Prodromi florae Novae Hollandiae.

The specific epithet (cornifolia) is derived from the Latin words cornu meaning "horn" and folium meaning "leaf".

Distribution and habitat
This persoonia grows in woodland and forest north from the Moonbi Range in north-eastern New South Wales and in south-eastern Queensland.

Castleton is a ghost town in the Castle Valley in southeastern Grand County, Utah, United States.

Description
The community located on the La Sal Mountain Loop Road, some  northeast of Moab. The nearest inhabited town is Castle Valley, approximately  to the northwest.

History
A short-lived gold placer mining camp existed here in the 1860s, but the area was first settled by a prospector named Doby Brown in the late 1870s or early 1880s. By 1882 enough settlers had gathered to establish a post office. In 1888 when a local gold rush began at nearby Miners Basin, Castleton became important as a supply town. It had a general store, hotel, two saloons, and several other businesses. At its peak in 1895, the population exceeded that of Moab. In fact, when Grand County was organized in 1890, Castleton vied with Moab for the chance to be county seat.

The Panic of 1907 closed down the area's mines, and soon ranchers were Castleton's only residents. By 1910 the businesses were gone, leaving only the post office, and the population had dropped to 50. In 1930 there were six residents. A few people stayed in the dead town for decades, but in 1967 the county commission officially vacated Castleton as an occupied town.

Climate
According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, Castleton has a semi-arid climate, abbreviated "BSk" on climate maps.

The pit that was thus formed is seen as tank now. It is approximately 305 m long and 290 m wide, nearly equal area to that of Meenakshi Amman Temple. Built in 1645 A.D.,this is the biggest tank in Tamil Nadu. 7 foot tall Mukuruny Vinayakar idol in Meenakshi Amman Temple is believed to be found during excavation process of this pond.

Significance
Mariamman Teppakulam is famous for the celebrations of the Float festival, which is celebrated in the Tamil month of Thai (14 January to 15 February).  The celebrations take place on a full moon night (Thaipusam) and the pristine water turns colourful as the temple is lit. The idols of Goddess Meenakshi and her consort Lord Sundareshwarar, the deities of the Meenakshi Amman Temple come down to the tank in colorful floats, presenting a mesmerizing sight. Pilgrims across India come to Madurai to participate in the festival.

Château de Tancarville is an 11th-century castle  on a cliff overlooking the Seine in France. It is located near Tancarville in Seine-Maritime, Normandy.

It has been classified as a Monument historique since 1862 by the French Ministry of Culture.

History

Raoul, chamberlain of the Duke of Normandy, first had walls and the old tower built. In the 12th century the square tower with walls 1.65 metres thick was built. In 1316, Jeanne de Tancarville, sole heiress, married Jean II de Melun and their  son became the second earl of Tancarville. In 1417, the Countess Marguerite married Jacques d'Harcourt . In 1418 at the time of the conquest of Normandy by Henry V of England, the title of Count of Tancarville was given to John Grey, while in the kingdom of France it was used by the House of Harcourt who recovered the castle after the departure of the English.

In 1709, a wing in classical style was added to the medieval parts of the building by the Count of Evreux. After the French Revolution in 1789, the castle was looted and partly burned down.

For 29 years, from 1910 to 1939, the castle was rented by Mr. Fernand Prat and his wife born Jehanne Leblanc (sister of Maurice Leblanc) who received many personalities of the arts and letters such as Maurice Maeterlinck and his companion Georgette Leblanc, Colette, Margaret Caroline Anderson, James Joyce, Bertrand de Jouvenel, Pierre Lecomte Nouy and Louis Fabulet.

In the 1960s, the castle served as a summer camp for children in the area.

The title of Earl of Tankerville is still extant in the Peerage of Great Britain.

The castle now belongs to Saqqara, a real estate company in Figeac (Lot), which has been offering luxury apartments since 2001. While waiting to be renovated, it remains closed to the public.

Nordic Aviation Capital (NAC) is a company specialising in regional aircraft leasing, including narrowbody aircraft. NAC is headquartered in Ireland, with offices in Singapore, Denmark, Toronto and Beijing. It has over 60 customers in over 40 countries.

History

NAC was founded October 15, 1990, in Denmark. For the first 25 years, the business focused on turboprops. 

From 2015 to 2020, it doubled its fleet principally by expanding into regional jets. During January 2020, the Company moved to a new headquarters in Ireland and its fleet value peaked at about $7 billion, with over 500 aircraft owned, managed, and committed. At this point, NAC was by far the world’s largest regional aircraft lessor. 

Due to the pandemic crisis, lack of adequate equity and various portfolio issues, NAC underwent a major financial restructuring commencing in late 2021, including a chapter 11 filing. A new senior management team, ownership group and Board of Directors were then established. 

The Company emerged successfully during June 2022 with a much-improved balance sheet and financial position including over $500 million of liquidity and growth capital. The fleet at exit was over 370 aircraft owned, managed and on order with assets of over $3 billion and significantly reduced debt.

Franchise 
The Company is currently the only lessor with both orders for new ATR turboprops and Airbus A220 cross-over jets. NAC also plans to expand into larger narrowbody aircraft such as new/used 737 and A320 family members.

Ownership 
NAC is owned by a diversified group of institutional investors including leading insurance companies, asset managers and other financial institutions.

Fleet 

As of December 31, 2022 the Nordic Aviation Capital fleet consists of the following aircraft:

The Company is reducing its mature aircraft assets like E1s and Q400s and adding to its ATR/ A320/737 family fleet. Out of the 315 owned aircraft, NAC has committed/awarded sales of 19 aircraft, largely E1s and Q400s.

City of Vultures is the first and only studio album by the British metal band Rise to Remain. It was released on 5 September 2011 through EMI Records, and in the United States on 5 June 2012 through Century Media Records. It debuted at #83 on the UK Album Charts and at No. 3 UK Rock Chart as well as No. 10 on the International Top 12 Charts in India.

Recording
City of Vultures was recorded over the course of four months, beginning in July 2010 at Chapel Studios in Lincolnshire, UK, and concluding in November 2010 Treehouse Studios in Chesterfield, UK. Colin Richardson, in his first production effort since Bullet for My Valentine's 2008 album "Scream Aim Fire", produced the album along with co-producer Carl Bown. It is the band's first release with EMI, whom they signed with in March 2011 after the subsequent completion of the album in November of the previous year. It features two songs from their EP, Bridges Will Burn: "Nothing Left" and "Bridges Will Burn". In July 2011, Kerrang! magazine hosted a complete album playback for 5 competition winners, prior to the album's release in September. From 15:00 (UTC +1) on 29 August, Rise to Remain made the entire album available for streaming for 24 hours, one week before the album's release.

Critical reception

The album has received very strong acclaim within music publications. Kerrang! Magazine awarded the album 4/5, Metal Hammer 8/10, Q Magazine 8/10, Big Cheese 4/5, Rocksound 8/10, Powerplay 8/10 and Front Magazine gave the album a full 5/5. Tracks such as "Power Through Fear" and "Nothing Left" have received rotation on BBC Radio 1 and XFM, courtesy of Fearne Cotton, Daniel P Carter and Zane Lowe, who have all highly praised the songs and the album itself. The more ambiguous reviews came in from publications such as The Guardian, which gave the album 3/5, as well as Allmusic, which claimed that "The band appears unwilling to deviate from its intense guitar-shredding formula, meaning the album begins to run out of steam well before the rather brutal finale, "Bridges Will Burn," draws to a close.".
