Zhao Wei () is a Chinese businessman and the founder of Hong Kong registered company Kings Romans Group (formed in 2007), which owns the Kings Romans casino franchise. The United States Treasury Department imposed sanctions on what they designated the Zhao Wei Transnational Criminal Organization (Zhao Wei TCO) in 2018 for its alleged involvement in laundering money and assisting in the storage and distribution of heroin, methamphetamine, and other narcotics for illicit networks, including the United Wa State Army which operates in Myanmar. Based in Laos in the Golden Triangle Special Economic Zone (GTSEZ), Zhao Wei is also reported to engage in human trafficking, bribery, wildlife trafficking, and other forms of transnational organized crime. Much of this illicit activity is allegedly conducted through the Kings Romans casino organisation in the GTSEZ.

Background
Zhao Wei was born in Heilongjiang or Liaoning, China on 16 September 1952. He began as a timber trader before moving, in the 1990s, to Macau, where he holds permanent residency, and began investing in casinos. In 2001, Zhao Wei moved to Mong La, Myanmar where he founded his first casino franchise, Landun Entertainment. He established ties with the National Democratic Alliance Army whose leader, Sai Leun financed the operations of the casino industry in Mong La. In 2005, China imposed a travel ban to Mong La following reports of officials gambling state funds. The travel ban led to the shuttering of casinos in the city.

Golden Triangle Special Economic Zone 

Soon after the travel ban was imposed, Zhao was invited by government of Laos to invest in Bokeo Province. In 2007, Zhao negotiated and struck a 99-year lease to establish and operate the Golden Triangle Special Economic Zone in the same province. In early October 2020, a US$50 million dollar investment to build a port in the Laotian town of Ban Mom, directly north of the Golden Triangle Special Economic Zone, was made by Osiano Trading Sole Co., a partner or front company of Zhao Wei and his organization. The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) has raised concerns about Laos being used by organized crime to traffic drugs, precursor chemicals, and other illicit commodities, and that the purchase of the Ban Mom port is representative of organized crime infiltrating infrastructure in the region. The Ban Mom port is on a remote stretch of the Mekong which has been confirmed as a smuggling route for trafficking drugs and precursor chemicals into and out of the Golden Triangle.

Personal life 
Zhao Wei is married to Chinese Australian Su Guiqin (born 1960). Alongside her husband, Su Guiqin runs the Kings Romans casino.

Dessert bars, or simply bars or squares, are a type of American "bar cookie" that has the texture of a firm cake or softer than usual cookie. They are prepared in a pan and then baked in the oven. They are cut into squares or rectangles.  They are staples of bake sales and are often made for birthdays. They are especially popular during the holidays, but many people eat them all year. Many coffee shops and bakeries also offer the treats. Popular flavors include peanut butter bars, lemon bars, chocolate coconut bars, pineapple bars, apple bars, almond bars, toffee bars, chocolate cheesecake bars and the "famous" seven-layer bar. In addition to sugar, eggs, butter, flour and milk, common ingredients are chocolate chips, nuts, raspberry jam, coconut, cocoa powder, graham cracker, pudding, mini-marshmallows and peanut butter. More exotic bars can be made with ingredients including sour cream, rhubarb, pretzels, candies, vanilla, raisins, and pumpkin. The Nanaimo bar is a bar dessert that requires no baking and is named after the city of Nanaimo, British Columbia.

Popular belief holds that lemon squares originated in Trinidad and Tobago.

Commercial variants

In 1993 Betty Crocker added two new varieties to the four existing Supreme Dessert Bar line of baking mixes it introduced in 1992. The two new flavors, M&Ms Cookie Bars and Raspberry Bars, joined lemon bars, chocolate peanut butter bars and caramel oatmeal bars. In 2004 Krusteaz added a line of dessert bars to its selection of quick and easy baked goods. The U.S. Navy SEAL Guide to Fitness and Nutrition includes numerous bars in its "lightweight menus".

The Canon EOS 700D, known as the Kiss X7i in Japan or as the Rebel T5i in the Americas, is an 18.0 megapixel digital single-lens reflex camera made by Canon. It was announced on March 21, 2013 with a suggested retail price of US$849. As a part of the Canon EOS three-digit/Rebel digital line, it is the successor to the EOS 650D/Kiss X6i/Rebel T4i and is the predecessor of both the EOS 750D/Kiss X8i/Rebel T6i and EOS 760D/EOS 8000D/Rebel T6s.

Features
The 700D has a feature set almost identical to that of the older 650D. According to photographer and technology writer Gordon Laing,It's fair to say that not a great deal has changed between the T5i / 700D and its predecessor. Indeed they're identical other than three changes: a new mode dial which can rotate through 360 degrees and keep turning, previews of Creative Filters in Live View, and a new external coating inherited from mid-range models like the 60D to provide a more durable finish.

The 700D, however, was introduced with a new kit lens — a new version of the existing EF-S 18–55mm that employs Canon's STM (stepping motor) technology. It also (for the first time in a Canon 18–55mm lens) has a front section that does not rotate.

Features include:
 18.0 effective megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor (Hybrid CMOS sensor)
 9 AF points, all cross-type at f/5.6. Center point is high precision, double cross-type at f/2.8 or faster
 DIGIC 5 image processor with 14-bit processing
 ISO 100 – 12800 sensitivity, extends to ISO 25600
 95% viewfinder frame coverage with 0.85x magnification
 1080p full HD video recording at 30fps, 25p (25 Hz) and 30p (29.97 Hz) with drop frame timing
 720p HD video recording at 60p (59.94 Hz) and 50p (50 Hz)
 480p ED video recording at 30p and 25p
 5.0 frames per second continuous shooting
 3.0-inch Vari-angle Clear View LCD II Touch screen with 1.04-megapixel resolution
 3.5 mm microphone jack for external microphones or recorders

Differences compared to EOS 650D:
 Real-time preview of Creative Filters in Live View mode
 Redesigned new mode dial that can rotate 360 degrees
 New "upmarket" textured body finish

The Chatham kākā or Chatham Island kākā (Nestor chathamensis) is an extinct parrot species previously found on the Chatham Islands, New Zealand. The first individuals were thought to belong to the New Zealand kākā (Nestor meridionalis), but detailed examination of the subfossil bones showed that they actually belong to a separate endemic species. The species became extinct within the first 150 years of the arrival of the Polynesians around 1500, long before any European settlers. No skins or descriptions are available.

Taxonomy
The Chatham kākā is assigned to the genus Nestor in the family Nestoridae, a small group of parrot species native to New Zealand. It is considered to have been more closely related to the kākā (Nestor meridionalis) and the extinct Norfolk kākā (Nestor productus) than to the kea (Nestor notabilis).

Ecology
The Chatham kākā was a forest dwelling species of about the same size as the North Island subspecies of the kākā, Nestor meridionalis septentrionalis. However, it had a much broader pelvis, enlarged legs, and a beak that was intermediate between kea and kākā.  It had no natural predators (as it was bigger than the New Zealand falcon) and, as is often observed with such island endemics, it is believed to have been a poor flyer. This may have made it more vulnerable to human hunting by the Polynesians.

William Ritchie (1817–1862) was an English barrister, Advocate-General of Bengal from 1855 to 1862.

Life
William Ritchie was born at Southampton Row, London in 1817. His father John Ritchie was a Scottish-born merchant of Baltimore.
His mother Charlotte Thackeray was aunt to William Makepeace Thackeray. The Thackeray family from Hadley had a long association with India, and her nephew was the novelist.

Ritchie was educated at Eton College 1829 to 1835, and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he matriculated in 1835, graduating B.A. in 1839 and M.A. in 1842. After Cambridge, he entered the Inner Temple. He lived with his family in Albany Street, London while reading for the Bar. His father John was the director of a bank that failed in November 1841, causing the Ritchie family to leave for the continent, to escape creditors.

Ritchie was called to the bar in 1842. He looked to the legal system of British India where he could earn an immediate income, rather than staying in London hoping for briefs. He built up a practice at the Calcutta Bar. He was appointed Advocate-General of Bengal in (1855?), also appointed the second Vice Chancellor of the University of Calcutta in 1859. William was appointed Legislative Member of the Council of the Governor-General of India in (1860?). William held these offices until his death in Calcutta on 22 March 1862.

Ritchie had a popular reputation for his gentle, amiable, overly-polite manner and his honourable character. This reputation earned him the nickname "Gentleman Ritchie" at Cambridge.

Family
Ritchie proposed to Augusta Trimmer on 28 August 1842 before sailing for India on 1 September on the Prince of Wales. After he made a name for himself at the bar in Calcutta. Augusta joined him there in 1845. They were married on 4 December at St. John's Church, and had eight children. There were sons:

  William Irvine Ritchie (1850–1903) of the Education Office
 John Gerald Ritchie (1853–1921) of the Indian Civil Service
 Richmond Ritchie (1854–1912)
 Edward Duguid Ritchie (1859–1912), physician.

The daughters were:

 Augusta Charlotte (1847–1910), the eldest, married Douglas William Freshfield;
 Emily (1851–1932), unmarried.
 Blanche, married Francis Warre-Cornish.
 Elinor, married Herbert Paul.

Spliceosome RNA helicase BAT1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the BAT1 gene.

This gene encodes a member of the DEAD box family of RNA-dependent ATPases that mediate ATP hydrolysis during pre-mRNA splicing. The encoded protein is an essential splicing factor required for association of U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein with pre-mRNA, and also plays an important role in mRNA export from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. A cluster of genes, BAT1-BAT5, is localized in the vicinity of the genes for TNF alpha and TNF beta. These genes are all within the human major histocompatibility complex class III region. Mutations in this gene may be associated with rheumatoid arthritis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been described.

Martin Alexander Ernst "Marty" Bergmann (19 February 1956 – 20 August 2011) was a Canadian scientist and public servant. A marine biologist by training, Bergmann spent 24 years with the Canadian federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans, latterly as Director of the Centre of Expertise for Arctic Aquatic Research Excellence, before taking up the position of head of Natural Resources Canada's Polar Continental Shelf Program. During his career in the Public Service of Canada Bergmann was instrumental in greatly expanding Canada's Arctic research capabilities. He was a leading player in establishing the International Polar Year of 2007–2008, and has been called a "leading and relentless evangelist in national and international scientific circles" by the Royal Canadian Geographical Society (RCGS). He died in the crash of First Air Flight 6560 near Resolute, Nunavut, on 20 August 2011. Since his death numerous memorials have been made to Bergmann, including the naming of the Arctic Research Foundation research vessel Martin Bergmann, the establishment of the RCGS's Martin Bergmann Medal, and the naming of a 375 million year-old fossil fish species found in Nunavut, Holoptychius bergmanni, in recognition of his "scientific endeavors [that] communicated the relevance of the Arctic region to a global audience."
