Armacell is a manufacturer and supplier of industrial foams and flexible insulation materials, based in Luxembourg. It has over 3,135 employees and 25 production plants in 16 countries.

History 
Armacell was the insulator manufacturing division of Armstrong World Industries, until a management buyout in June 2000. Founder Thomas Armstrong created the division in 1899, when Armstrong World Industries, started producing insulated corkboard and brick. In 1954, the division experienced success after launching Armaflex, a flexible technical insulator for pipe connections.

In 1960, Armstrong World Industries laid the foundation for Armstrong Kork GmbH in Germany to produce flooring. The company opened its first distribution office in Düsseldorf as part of their expansion in Europe. This became the foundation of Armstrong's European headquarters.

A new factory was erected in Münster in 1967, to handle increasing demand for Armaflex. The 1973 oil crisis led to innovations in heating-system insulators. Growth was  propelled by West Germany's "Energieeinsparverordnung", a law obliging building owners to construct buildings  that use as little energy for heating as possible.

In 1984, Swiss company Rothrist and its brand Tubolit were taken-over, adding insulations based on polyethylene to the range of products.

In 1991, the Münster site was equipped as a center for advanced research for insulation solutions. In June 2000, the insulation division became independent company Armacell International Holding, with all rights to Armaflex and Tubolit. In 2001, Armacell founded a new company division with a focus on technical foams.

At the end of 2019, the financial investor Blackstone sold the majority of the capital in Armacell to PAI partners, while the minority shareholder Kirkbi, who has held a stake in Armacell since 2016, increased its stake at the same time.

Expansion and acquisitions
The company expanded into Asia the following year, acquired a Thai producer of technical insulation and founded a new division for technical foams. In 2004, Armacell acquired Ensolite and Oletex and the associated facilities from the US-American RBX group. In 2005, Armacell took over American foam slab stock producer Monarch Rubber and Fagerdala Benelux S.A., a European producer of thermoplastic foams. In 2008, Armacell purchased MDS Leuze, a manufacturer of blank-sheet cable coatings and PropaCene.

Ubhejane (sometimes stylized as uBhejane, Zulu for "black rhinoceros") is a South African herbal medicine marketed as a treatment for HIV/AIDS, reportedly the most popular alternative medicine treatment for the disease in South Africa. It was invented by former truck driver Zeblon Gwala, who has claimed that he got the idea for it in a dream. Gwala advises his patients to take ubhejane instead of antiretroviral drugs (ARVs), saying that while both ubhejane and ARVs work, ubhejane, unlike ARVs, does not have side effects. The price at which ubhejane was sold has been reported variously at $25 and $50 US dollars.

Ingredients
Ubhejane consists of two herbal remedies: one is sold in a bottle with a blue cap, the other in a bottle with a white one. Both are black and liquid in appearance. The blue one, according to Gwala, fights the virus that causes AIDS, and the other is said to boost the immune system. Ubhejane has 89 herbal ingredients, which Gwala says he collects from all over Africa and mixes together by hand. Gwala was criticized by AIDS expert Dennis Sifris for refusing to reveal the ingredients of ubhejane.

Research
In 2005, Gwala approached the dean of University of KwaZulu-Natal's medical school to ask them to conduct a clinical trial of ubhejane, but he said it was too soon for this, and suggested performing lab tests instead. The results of these tests showed that ubhejane was not toxic to cells, and that it kills bacteria. One of ubhejane's most outspoken promoters, Herbert Vilakazi, claimed that this research had shown that the remedy was effective, but the university subsequently released a statement saying that this was not the case.

Reaction

Support
Among the notable supporters of ubhejane was Obed Mlaba, who was the mayor of Durban during the 2000s, as well as former South African health minister Manto Tshabalala-Msimang. Gwala has responded to criticisms by saying that he has not claimed that ubhejane is a cure for HIV/AIDS, and that he has not told any of his patients to stop taking ARVs.

Opposition
In 2007, the Democratic Alliance Party of South Africa requested a police investigation of Gwala, whom it described as a "backyard chemist" manufacturing a "fake AIDS cure." Ubhejane has also been implicated in causing liver failure, as well as causing the development of drug resistance, in some patients who took it.

Practical Joke () is a 2008 Russian rock music film directed by Andrei Kudinenko. It is a remake of the 1977 film of the same name by Vladimir Menshov.

Plot
The action takes place in an average Moscow school. It all starts with a joke by class leader Oleg Komarov - he persuades classmates to make fun of the young English language trainee in retaliation for a barely passing grade. At the same time, a new student appears in the class - Igor Glushko. The new kid amazes the teacher with his knowledge of English during his first lesson. He also writes songs and dreams of creating a music group. Komarov understands that his leader’s position has suffered damage, and tries to rectify the situation.
After the first practical joke, the intern realizes who was the one who made it and gives Komarov a failing grade for his homework. Komarov’s father, who sponsors the school, threatens Oleg with the army and punishes him. After that, Oleg decides to arrange a second, more brutal practical joke. The practical joke is successful, but everything comes to light, and it is decided that Komarov be expelled from school. But suddenly the head teacher of the school calls everyone for mercy and offers to leave Komarov at school and that he be allowed to take exams.

He represented Last Mountain from 1952 to 1964 as a Co-operative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) member and Souris-Estevan in 1971 as a New Democratic Party (NDP) member in the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan.

He was born in Fort William, Ontario, the son of Ernest Albert Brown and Hetty McKeen, and was educated in Saskatchewan, in England and in the United States. From 1931 to 1940, he was a grain buyer for the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool. In 1933, he married Edith May Cummings; he later married his second wife Lorie following Edith's death. Brown served in the Canadian Army during World War II. From 1946 to 1949, he was an auditor for the Saskatchewan Department of Co-operation and Co-operative Development. In 1949, he was hired as a field representative based in Regina for the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool. In the following year, Brown became general secretary for the Saskatchewan CCF.

He served in the provincial cabinet as Provincial Secretary, as Minister of Travel and Information, as Minister of Industry and Information and as Minister Responsible for the Saskatchewan Power Corporation. Brown was defeated by Donald Gilbert MacLennan when he ran for reelection to the provincial assembly in 1964. He then served as Director of Organization for the federal New Democratic Party. Brown resigned in 1965, moving to Estevan. He operated several businesses there and also served on city council.

He was defeated by Ian Hugh MacDougall when he ran for the Souris-Estevan seat in the assembly in 1967 but subsequently defeated MacDougall in 1971. Brown died in office in Regina later that year at the age of 59.

This article covers the non-directionally labeled numbered east–west streets in the New York City borough of Brooklyn between and including 1st Street and 101st Street. Most are offset by about 40 degrees from true east–west, that is they run southeast–northwest, but by local convention they are called east–west.

With avenues numbered from 1 to 28, they form a street grid. While similar to Manhattan's grid, this Brooklyn grid does not have strict rules of traffic direction based on whether a street number is odd or even. This grid starts with 1st Street in Park Slope south of Garfield Place and ends with 101st Street just north of Shore Road and the Belt Parkway in Bay Ridge.

A separate grid of "West" and "East" streets (West 1st through West 37th Streets, and East 1st through East 108th Streets) lies on both sides of Dahill Road and run approximately north–south. A third grid on Bath Beach neighborhood specifies "Bay Streets" (facing Gravesend Bay), numbered from Bay 7th to Bay 50th Streets, with the first three streets having been taken over by Dyker Beach Park, and alternating with the numbered avenues from Bensonhurst and New Utrecht.

The Don't Weaponize the IRS Act (, ) is a proposed bill in the United States Congress which would reduce the amount of information that nonprofit organizations are required to report to the US Internal Revenue Service. 

The bill would be a codification of a Trump-era rule where organizations would not be required to report the names and addresses of their major donors to the IRS.

Background 
The bill was drawn up partially as a response to proposed changes included in the For the People Act, and partially in response to the 2013 IRS targeting controversy.

Support and opposition 
Proponents of the bill claim the bill will improve privacy of taxpayers, avoiding partisan harassment and retaliation, and say that the data collection is unnecessary for tax collection purposes. In Congress, the legislation is supported by exclusively by members of the Republican Party, with 48 cosponsors in the Senate.

Members of the Democratic Party have been sharply critical of the policy behind the bill. In April 2021, 40 Senate Democrats signed a letter calling for the Trump-era rule to be overturned, pointing to the rule's potential to hamper investigations into foreign election spending, dark money, and illegal activity. In May 2021, 30 House Democrats sent another letter directly critical of the bill, citing similar concerns about the disclosures being necessary for transparency in the wake of Citizens United v. FEC decision.

The following are lists of the most populous fully defined incorporated settlements in Nigeria by population. This page consists three different tables, with different kinds of settlements; a list for "defined cities", listing the population, strictly within the defined city limits, a list for "urban area" population, and another list for the population within metropolitan areas.

Lists

Defined cities/towns
Nigerian cities are categorized into three types; there is the "Metropolis", which is characterized with having more than one Local Government Areas (LGAs). This type of cities are usually formed when large municipalities are split into smaller LGAs, to aid efficient administration and management, or when small towns grow and merge into existing large cities, or both; some are also formed when urban areas of multiple LGAs merge as a result of growth and are now fully defined as a single settlement,  Another type of settlement is the "Municipality", which is basically an LGA that is fully defined as its own city or town. This type of cities are usually mid-sized, although some large cities also exist as a single LGA. The third type of settlement is the "village", which is basically grouped together with several other villages into one sizeable LGA.

The following table lists fully defined incorporated cities in Nigeria, with a population of at least 100,000, as declared by the Nigerian National Population Commission in the 2006 National census. This list refers only to the population of individual cities within their defined limits, which does not include other distinct communities or extended suburban areas within urban agglomerations. A city is displayed in bold if it is a state or federal capital, and in italics if it is the most populous city in the state.

Urban areas
An urban area is a continuously built up land mass of urban development that is within a labor market, without regard for administrative or city boundaries. An urban area is a human settlement with high population density and infrastructure of built environment.

This is section lists contiguous urban areas in Nigeria, with a population of at least 500,000. The figures here have been taken from Demographia's "World Urban Areas" study 2016. Demographia uses maps, satellite photographs to estimate continuous urbanization.
