National Solidarity Assembly is a political party in Trinidad and Tobago.  It is the political arm of the All Trinidad General Worker's Trade Union. Union President Nirvan Maharaj formed the NSA, and sits as interim political leader, after years of struggle, making representation to past government administrations, for the implementation of a court order for the effective honoring of V.S.E.P. to the former workers of the Caroni (1975) ltd. In frustration, due to their unresponsive and uncooperative stance, and the dire need, for better representation for the people of Trinidad & Tobago, a new political party was born at the Rienzi Complex, Couva. National Solidarity Assembly's majority of membership is the former workers of Caroni (1975) ltd.

The party did not put up any candidates for the 2015 general election.

Stanley Tunstall "Stepper" Stephens OBE (13 February 1913 – 23 March 1986) was an Australian politician. He was a Country Party member of the New South Wales Legislative Assembly from 1944 to 1973, representing the electorate of Byron. He served as Minister for Housing and Minister for Co-operative Societies in the Askin Coalition government.

Stephens was born in Blayney, and was educated at Fort Street High School and Murwillumbah High School. He became a journalist, and served as editor of the Mullumbimby Star from 1932 to 1939. He enlisted in the army at the beginning of World War II, and saw action at Tobruk, before being severely wounded in the Battle of El Alamein. Initially left for dead, he managed to survive, but lost the sight in one eye and suffered impaired vision in the other. He returned to Australia, underwent rehabilitation, and returned to working as a journalist.

Stephens nominated as a Country Party candidate for the seat of Byron at the 1944 state election, and was easily elected. He was re-elected nine times, running unopposed in 1950, 1953 and 1959. He served as Country Party whip from 1953 until the election of the Askin government, when he was appointed to the ministry as Minister for Housing and Minister for Co-operative Societies. While the relevant minister, he was responsible for the passage of the Credit Union Act 1969, pioneering legislation overseeing the introduction of credit unions.

Stephens resigned in the middle of his tenth term in 1973, and the subsequent by-election was won by Country Party candidate Jack Boyd. He was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 1976, and died in the Sydney suburb of Lindfield in 1986.

The Burla (; , Borly) is a river in Russia and Kazakhstan. It is  long and has a catchment area of .

The Burla river system is an endorheic watershed. In the Russian Federation the basin of the river is located mainly in Altai Krai, with a little section in Novosibirsk Oblast. The last stretch of its course is in the Pavlodar Region of Kazakhstan.

Course 
The sources of the Burla are in the Ob Plateau,  to the northeast of Dolganka, Krutikhinsky District, and only  from the banks of the Ob River. The river flows roughly southwestwards all along its course. As it descends into the Kulunda Plain its channel scatters, becoming almost interrupted in places. Further west along the steppe, the lower course of the Burla consists in channels between mostly shallow lakes. In years of adequate rainfall the river flows into the endorheic lake Bolshoy Azhbulat, but in dry years it ends in Lake Bolshoye Topolnoye, east of the Russia/Kazakhstan border.

There are numerous settlements near the river, such as Alexeyevka, Utyanka, Novoilyinka, Pioner Truda, Topolnoye, Ustyanka, Staropeschanoye, Novoalexeyevka, Novopeschanoye, Burla, Prityka, Mikhaylovka and Petrovka, among others.

Tributaries 
The main tributaries of the Burla are the  long Kurya (Курья) and the  long Kurya (Aksenikha) (Курья (Аксениха)) from the left, as well as the  long Chuman (Чуман) from the right. All the tributaries dry up in the summer, but the Chuman connects with the Karasuk river in high water years. There are numerous lakes in the Burla basin. The shallow areas of the river and neighboring wetlands freeze in the winter.

Mary Pickford (1892–1979) was a Canadian motion picture actress, producer, and writer. During the silent film era she became one of the first great celebrities of the cinema and a popular icon known to the public as "America's Sweetheart".

Pickford was born Gladys Marie Smith in Toronto and began acting on stage in 1900. She started her film career in the United States in 1909. Initially with the Biograph film company, she moved to the Independent Motion Picture Company (IMP) in 1911, then briefly to the Majestic Film Company later that same year, followed by a return to Biograph in 1912. After appearing in over 150 short films during her years with these studios she began working in features with Adolph Zukor's Famous Players Film Company, a studio which eventually became part of Paramount Pictures. By 1916 Pickford's popularity had climbed to the point that she was awarded a contract that made her a partner with Zukor and allowed her to produce her films. In 1919 Pickford teamed with D.W. Griffith, Charlie Chaplin, and Douglas Fairbanks to create United Artists, an organization designed to distribute their films. She married Fairbanks in 1920.  Following the release of Secrets (1933), Pickford retired from acting in motion pictures, but remained active as a producer for several years afterward. She sold her stock in United Artists in 1956.

The timeline offered here presents significant events in Mary Pickford's life and juxtaposes them against notable events in the history and development of cinema.  More emphasis is placed on the silent era, when she was most active, with particular attention to her three United Artists partners.  Also presented are notable events that occurred in the United States.

The Katahdin is a breed of domestic sheep developed by breeder Michael Piel in Maine, United States. He named this new breed after Mount Katahdin - the state’s highest peak. The breed was developed during the second half of the 20th century by crossing selected St. Croix sheep from the Virgin Islands with various other breeds, including the Suffolk. Lambs were selected based on hair coat, meat-type conformation, high fertility, and flocking instinct.

The Katahdin sheep breed was the first in the United States to reach sheep industry standards of carcass quality.The average Katahdin ewe weight is 120 to 160 pounds and the ram's weight is 180 to 250. Most Katahdin ewes will have a 200% lamb crop. The Katahdin sheds its winter coat, so does not have to be sheared. The Katahdin's hair comes in a variety of colors, as the emphasis of the breed is on production rather than appearance. When Katahdins are crossed with wool sheep, their offspring usually have a predominantly wool coat with some hair mixed in.

The Katahdin's popularity in the USA has increased in recent years due to low wool prices and high shearing costs. This, combined with the fact that the Katahdin sheep breed is also resistant to parasites - a trait inherited from its St. Croix ancestors - makes the breed a highly productive, low-cost option for commercial shepherds.

A warehouse store or warehouse supermarket is a food and grocery retailer that operates stores geared toward offering deeper discounted prices than a traditional supermarket. These stores offer a no-frills experience and warehouse shelving stocked well with merchandise intended to move at higher volumes. Unlike warehouse clubs, warehouse stores do not require a membership or membership fees. Warehouse stores can also offer a selection of merchandise sold in bulk. 
Typically, warehouse stores are laid out in a logical format; this leads customers in a certain way around the store to the checkout. For example, as one enters the store they are directed down an aisle of discounted products. From there the layout could then lead to the fresh produce department, followed by the deli and bakery departments at the back of the store. Often, certain customer service niceties, like the bagging of groceries, are not done by store employees; this helps reduce overall cost. Many warehouse stores are operated by traditional grocery chains both as a way to attract lower income, value conscious consumers and to maximize their buying power in order to lower costs at their mainstream stores.

Examples in the United States and Canada 
Traditional warehouse store chains include:
 Cub Foods, affiliated with SuperValu
 Food 4 Less, affiliated with Kroger (and Nugget Markets in Northern California/Oregon)
 Food Basics (Canada), affiliated with Metro Inc.
 Food Basics (United States), affiliated with A&P
 Food Maxx, affiliated with Save Mart
 Foods Co., affiliated with Kroger
 Food Source, affiliated with Raley's Supermarkets
 Superior Grocers, an independently owned southern California chain
 Super 1 Foods, based in east Texas, Arkansas and Louisiana; owned by Brookshire Grocery Company
 Super 1 Foods, based in Idaho, Montana, and Washington, owned by Rosauers Supermarkets
 Super One Foods, a small chain based in Duluth, Minnesota
 Super Saver Foods, affiliated with Albertsons
 Warehouse Economy Outlet (WEO), affiliated with A&P, now defunct
 Smart & Final (SFS), Owned by Ares Management, recently began trading publicly
 Warehouse Markets a small Tulsa OK based chain
 WinCo Foods (includes one Waremart store in Oregon)

Other types of warehouse store chains include: 
Aldi. Aldi Stores are smaller specialty stores that largely feature only their own in house private labels.
 Woodman's Markets. Focuses on carrying a much large variety of brands and product offerings than traditional supermarkets at lower prices.
