A seaman's chest is a wooden chest which was commonly used by sailors to store personal belongings. They are also known as sea chests, not to be confused with the recesses found in the hull of certain ships.

Design and Use 
Seaman's chests were stored in the crew's quarters and were used as seats as well as containers for sailors' personal effects. Items that were stored in these chests include clothing, tools, keepsakes, and things for entertainment, such as books or cards. Most seaman's chests were decorated only with a coat of paint and the owner's name, although some had intricate paintings or carvings. Chests are mounted on two parallel wooden beams, similar to runners, which helps to prevent damage from sliding as well as insulating them from moisture on the floor of the ship. The sides of the chests are not vertical, but rather slant inwards slightly. This lowers the center of gravity, making the chests less likely to tip over. The lid of a seaman's chest extends over the sides and is intended to be used as a seat. Seaman's chests are always equipped with a lock as well as handles on either side, known as beckets. These handles were made of cordage and were often woven into decorative patterns by sailors. Almost all chests contained at least one small compartment attached to the right-hand side, though some had compartments extending across the entire length of the interior.

In Treasure Island 
This novel contains a description of the contents of a seaman's chest belonging to pirate Billy Bones.
Though these belongings would have been reasonable for a former first mate and pirate such as Bones, most sailors would have only owned a few essential possessions, namely clothes and bedding.

Nellie Elizabeth Pooler Chapman (1847–1906) was the first woman dentist in California.

She was born Nellie Elizabeth Pooler on May 8, 1847, in Norridgewock, Maine to John Ruxton Pooler and Matilda J. O'Hara. who joined the California Gold Rush. Nellie mined alongside her parents in California. At the age of 14, she married the dentist Allen Chapman (1826–1897), with whom she had two sons in 1862 and 1864 when she was 14 and 17 of age. She learned by assisting her husband with his dental practice and quickly took to dentistry. When she was 21, her husband left to look for silver in the Comstock silver rush in Nevada. In an effort to minimize financial hardship, Chapman became the first registered women dentist in the west in 1879. Recovering financially, her dental practice continued to grow. Chapman soon equipped her practice with state of the art equipment and her clients were said to be treated “like royalty".  Both of her sons followed in her footsteps and became dentists as well.  Chapman has been said to have paved the way for women dentists in the Western United States that would follow. An exhibit detailing the events of her life can be seen at the Women's Museum of California in San Diego, California. Chapman died of cancer on April 7, 1906, in Nevada City, California.

In April 1943 he escorted Pavelić in a visit to Adolf Hitler. At the beginning of September 1943 he was named as Doglavnik (deputy of Poglavnik) and thus became a member of Doglavničko vijeće (in English Doglavnik Council).

Nadya Ginsburg is an American actress, comedian and television writer. She is best known as a cast member on the sketch comedy show Hype, her recurring role on the show Partners and for her online comedy videos where she appears as Cher and Madonna, most notably the web series The Madonnalogues.

Career 
Ginsburg's first high profile gig was as a cast member on the short-lived variety sketch TV show Hype, created and written by the Madtv writer Scott King. In 2010, she created a parody song and video of the Lady Gaga hit "Poker Face" with re-written lyrics about the meteorologist Al Roker, and it went viral. She subsequently appeared on Good Morning America and was interviewed by Roker. The national attention revitalised interest in a 2007 web series in which Ginsburg had starred called The Worm, in which she portrayed an alien being who impersonated Madonna, Cher, Winona Ryder and others.

Ginsburg's parody impersonation of Madonna spun into a live show called The Madonnalogues, which in turn became an eight-episode web series by the same name. She also co-wrote and starred in the short film If We Took a Holiday, in which she portrays an actress whose best friend requests that she pretend to be Madonna and accompany him for the whole of his birthday.

Ginsburg was a writer on the Joan Rivers show Fashion Police for two years. She left the show as part of a writer's strike complaining that Rivers refused to pay fair wages or provide health insurance to the writing team.

Mosque Road is a street in Fraser Town, Bengaluru, India, that links MM Road with Coles Road. The road is a  commercial centre and one of the busiest shopping areas of Bangalore. Iftar celebration in this road is particularly well-known. There are a large number of eateries here, and that's why the road is also known as "Foodies' paradise".The road is named mosque road because it leads to the Haji Sir Ismail Sait Mosque.

Iftar celebration 

There are a number of mosques in this area. Iftar is celebrated here every year. Both the sides of the road are decorated lights and thousands of people gather here in the evenings for their Iftar feast. Samosas, kebabs, pathar ka gosht, different varieties of biryani are sold.

Shopping centres 
There are a large number of shopping centres, retail outlets, eateries and stalls in this street. Because of having so many eateries and restaurants the place is also known as "Foodies' paradise". There are a few hotels as well. Traffic jams and unsystematic vehicle parking are serious problems in this area. In July 2015 Bangalore city traffic police marked the road as a "model" road, and disallowed vehicles anywhere in the road other than a few designated parking areas. Right after that business and selling in the area reportedly decreased by 30-50%, as people were reluctant to walk extra. However, the residents of that area found this traffic rule useful. This also affected the Iftar celebration of this year.

The Tokrau () is a river in Karaganda Region, Kazakhstan. It has a length of  and a drainage basin of .

The Tokrau flows by Aktogay, the administrative center of Aktogay District, Karaganda Region, as well as by Saryterek village. Its mouth lies northeast of Balkhash City and east of the Bektauata range. The Egizkoytas burial complex of the Bronze Age and Early Iron Age is located in the upper course of the river.

The Tokrau Formation, a fossiliferous stratigraphic unit in Kazakhastan whose strata date back to the Paleozoic, was named after the river.

Course
The Tokrau river originates in the Kyzyltas range of the southern Kazakh Uplands,  to the north of Mt Karashoki. It heads roughly southwards within a narrow channel all along its course. Its valley may reach  in its widest places, narrowing to  in gorges. The floodplain is between  and  wide. About  away from the coast of Lake Balkhash to the south, the river fans out into many arms in a dry, widening plain. Finally its waters disperse in the semidesert sands to the north of the lakeshore. This last stretch of the Tokrau was an ancient delta dating back to the time when the river reached Lake Balkhash.

The Tokrau is fed mainly by winter snows. Its water is fresh and the river channel fills between March and May, although less often it may fill in late autumn too. The lower stretch frequently dries up, stagnating into disconnected pools. Very rarely, in years of abundant spring floods, the waters of the river may break through the desert area and trickle into lake Balkhash.

Tributaries
The main tributaries of the Tokrau are the Zhalanash, the  long Karamende, the Kosabai, the Karatal and the  long Zhinishke.

Volkovija () is a mountain village in the Republic of North Macedonia, part of the Municipality of Brvenica.

Population
Volkovija is a relatively small village holding a population of 270 people. The ethnic composition of the village is Macedonian. 
The village has small primary school “Goce Delcev” which accepts students aged 6–10. The students aged 10–14 continue with the school programs in the neighboring village Stence.

In statistics gathered by Vasil Kanchov in 1900, the village of Volkovija was inhabited by 640 Orthodox Bulgarians.

Origins and etymology

The village as such is mentioned for the first time in written text in 1348 (14th century). There are number of interpretations about the origins of the name “Volkovija”. In Macedonian it comes from the word “volk” (wolf) which suggests that in the past the place where today Volkovija is was empty wilderness with many wolves. This however is contested by authors like Viktor Rafajlovski who argues that such a view is illogical mainly because in the past the village area was a home to highly important monastery.
