Tudeh Party of Iran
The Tudeh Party was closely associated with communist ideologies and gained prominence during Iran's struggle against foreign occupation in World War II. It advocated for workers' rights, social justice, and national independence.
Before the Islamic Revolution, the Tudeh Party was a prominent force in Iranian politics. It participated in elections, and its members were involved in various social and political activities. However, as tensions escalated in the late 1970s, particularly during the revolution against the monarchy, the party faced challenges.
Following the establishment of the Islamic Republic in 1979, the Tudeh Party experienced a significant setback. The new regime, led by Ayatollah Khomeini, opposed the party's communist ideals, leading to its banning. Many Tudeh Party members faced persecution, imprisonment, or exile.
Despite being banned in Iran, the Tudeh Party continued to operate in exile, primarily from European countries. Over time, the party underwent internal changes and ideological shifts. Some members moved away from strict communism, embracing more social-democratic principles.
The Tudeh Party remains active in exile, engaging with the Iranian diaspora and advocating for democratic reforms. It continues to navigate challenges and changes in Iran's political landscape.
The Tudeh Party of Iran has a complex history intertwined with the nation's political evolution. From its roots in anti-occupation struggles to its role in the pre-revolution era and subsequent challenges during the Islamic Republic, the party reflects the dynamic nature of Iranian politics. The Tudeh Party's resilience and adaptability in the face of adversity highlight its ongoing commitment to political engagement and social change.

Urban rail transport in India
Urban rail transport is a type of rail transport in India which has trains run in a city or urban area. There are four types of urban rail transport systems in India, for example rapid transit (metro), commuter rail (suburban rail), monorail and tram.
From a report of 2021, 2.63 billion people use metro systems of India every year. Sixteen large cities in India use metro systems. The report places the country as one of the busiest rapid transit systems in the world if we take the number of passengers using the system. The metro systems in India are long and it is the third longest active metro system in the world.
The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs is a ministry of the Government of India. Its Urban Transport wing works on the stuff about urban transport systems. This includes metro rail programmes. The ministry follows the provisions of the National Urban Transport Policy, 2006.
Commuter rail or suburban rail is the first type of urban rail transport system. It was first built in Mumbai on 16 April 1853. Its first passenger train ran from Bori Bunder (now Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus) to Thane. The distance between the two rail stations is . The passenger train ran over the distance in an hour and 15 minutes. This is Asia's first commuter rail system.
Four large cities in India stated tram systems at the end of the 20th century, for example Chennai, Delhi, Kolkata and Mumbai. The trams helped people travel in large cities. Kolkata started its tram system in 1873 and the trams were pulled by horses. Chennai started its tram system in 1895 and the trams were run by electricity. After that, Mumbai, Kanpur and Delhi started their tram systems. Most cities stopped running trams between 1933 and 1964, but Kolkata never stopped running trams. Kolkata is the only city in India that still runs trams. The trams of Kolkata run on streets as heritage.
A study on traffic and travel characteristics of Delhi was done in 1969. Many people put up plans on building a metro system in Delhi at the time. Buses were the main type of public transport in Delhi but they quickly ran out of capacity. The traffic of Delhi was also going up. People considered the ideas of an urban transport system as the need for the city. The authority made a plan in 1984. Three corridors under the ground and changes in the suburban rail system were parts of the plan. The authority started building the Delhi Metro on 1 October 1998. Its first metro line became active on 24 December 2002. As of 2021, the total length of the Delhi Metro is . It is the longest and the busiest metro system in India. Other Indian cities think of the Delhi Metro as a .
Chennai Mass Rapid Transit System became active on 1 November 1995. It is the first elevated railway line in India. It is also the longest elevated rail line of the country. Its length is .
The political capital of India is in Delhi. The city had a success for making new metro lines. Mumbai is the country's financial capital. Suburban rail was the main type of transport in the city. The Mumbai Metropolitan Region Development Authority (MMRDA) said that the bus services in Mumbai ran through the city's narrow and crowded areas (areas with many people). The buses moved slowly and jammed in traffic. This is why the authority thought an urban transport system was needed. Mumbai had a plan of a metro system. The suburban rail connected main parts of the city. So the authority made up a plan to build a monorail in Mumbai. The Mumbai Monorail was opened on 2 February 2014. It is India's first monorail system.
Many large cities in India made up plans to build a monorail as a solution to the urban transport. But the Mumbai Monorail had shown its own problems quickly, for example low number of passengers, low efficiency to keep the tracks good and train slowing down at the switches. The monorail tracks were elevated (built above the ground). They had their own set of trains and depot (place where trains are kept). Many people were talking about the cost of making and running monorails. Almost all monorails around the world are used in amusement parks and similar theme parks. They were not used much as a solution to the urban transport. People thought that a light rail system had more efficiency, lower cost and larger capacity than a monorail. This is why many Indian cities made plans of a metro rail or a light rail system in place of a monorail.

The Franco-Siamese crisis of 1893, known in Thailand as the Incident of Rattanakosin Era 112 was a conflict between the French Third Republic and the Kingdom of Siam. Auguste Pavie, French vice consul in Luang Prabang in 1886, was the chief agent in furthering French interests in Laos. His intrigues, which took advantage of Siamese weakness in the region and periodic invasions by Vietnamese rebels from Tonkin, increased tensions between Bangkok and Paris. The conflict concluded with the Paknam Incident, in which French gunboats sailed up the Chao Phraya River to blockade Bangkok. The Siamese subsequently agreed to give the area that constitutes most of present-day Laos to France, an act that led to the significant expansion of French Indochina.
Split-flap display
A split-flap display, or a flap display, is a digital electromechanical display device that shows changeable alphanumeric text, and sometimes graphics.
They are commonly used as public transport timetable in airports or railway stations.
Commonly they are called Solari boards after Italian display manufacturer Solari di Udine, or in Central European countries they are called Pragotron after the Czech manufacturer instead.
Split-flap displays were once commonly used in consumer digital clocks known as flip clocks.
Each character position or graphic position has a collection of flaps on which the characters or graphics are painted or silkscreened. These flaps are rotated to show the desired character or graphic.
Sometimes the flaps are large and display whole words, and in other installations there are several smaller flaps, each displaying a single character.
Flip-dot displays and LED display boards may be used instead of split-flap displays in most applications. Their output can be changed by reprogramming instead of replacement of physical parts but they suffer from lower readability. They also can refresh more quickly, as a split-flap display often must cycle through many states.
Advantages to these displays include:
The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority has designed the new LED replacements for its aging Solari boards at North Station and South Station to emit an electronically generated flapping noise to alert passengers to train boarding updates.
Many game shows of the 1970s used this type of display for the contestant podium scoreboards. Usually, the flip was left-to-right on a vertical axis, although up/down on a horizontal axis was not completely unknown. Early seasons of the game show "Family Feud" used a split flap display as part of the game board (subsequent seasons used more modern digital displays, and eventually simply used a large digital flat screen monitor). The game board on the Nickelodeon game show "Make the Grade" was a 7x7 split-flap display, used to display subjects and wild cards, as well as tracking contestants' progress. The television game show "Chain Reaction" on Game Show Network features computer-simulated split-flap displays to display the various words in a chain.
In Italy, split-flap displays have also been occasionally used as destination signs for transit vehicles; there was also a brief vogue for them in the United Kingdom in the mid 1980s.
The artistic appeal of the displays have been seen use in works like "Pedestrian Drama", contemporary artwork using this display technology, and art by Juan Fontanive, who has used the mechanism since 2005.
The album cover for The Enemy's album "We'll Live and Die in These Towns" is based on the Solari design seen at British railway stations.

Pachycormus is the scientific name for two animal genera:
"This page lists articles about distinct genera with the same name."
Bonnerichthys
Bonnerichthys is an extinct, prehistoric pachycormiform in the family Pachycormidae from the Late Cretaceous of North America. It only has one species, B. gladius.
Finds were made in the Smoky Hill Member of the Niobrara Formation of Kansas (Late Coniacian-Early Campanian), and additional material was later reported from the Pierre Shale, Mooreville Chalk, Demopolis Chalk, Wenonah Formation, and Moreno Formation.
It was probably related to "Rhinconichthys" and "Leedsichthys".
One of the most significant features of "Bonnerichthys" is that it was a filter feeder, living on plankton. This recognition that many large-bodied fish from the Mesozoic in the Pachycormidae were filter feeders shows that this niche was filled for at least 100 million years.
Euthynotus
Euthynotus is an extinct genus of prehistoric bony fish that lived during the Toarcian. It is the most basal pachycormiform. The second most basal is "Pachycormus". Fossil remains have been found in Europe.
"Euthynotus" had a slender body. The skull was quite long and narrow, with a slightly pointed snout. The dorsal fin was small and placed far away.
"Euthynotus" has two species:
"Euthynotus incognitus" is a species of "Euthynotus". It is very much well-known.
"Euthynotus intermedius" is another species of "Euthynotus". Unlike the other species, it's not well-known.
Like many pachycormiforms, "Euthynotus" was a predatory fish. The particularly long body of this fish made it very fast. It was a carnivore.
