Wales (West and North) Television seen by viewers as Teledu Cymru and often called WWN was ITV franchise for North and West Wales. It was the first ITV station to lose its franchise. The name Teledu Cymru that was seen on screens was Welsh for Television Wales. The station was awarded the franchise on the 6 June 1961. WWN started broadcasting on 14 September 1962 and ended on 26 January 1964. The station ended broadcasting due to financial failure.After the failure of WWN, the franchise region was merged with South Wales and the West, served by TWW (Television Wales and the West) but the name Teledu Cymru would be used in the former region. On 20 May 1968, the Teledu Cymru name was dropped, due to Harlech taking over the franchise.
The geography of Wales was a problem for the Independent Television Authority (ITA). The more inhabited South was already served by Television Wales and the West, which started in 1958, while the north east and a lot of the north coast was served by Granada and ABC, started in 1956. The central regions of north wales couldn't obtain ITV programmes.
The ITA was pressured by a group of Welsh-speaking businessmen to setup a North and West Wales region. The ITA asked the Postmaster General to allow it, which he did with conditions.
The conditions were:
These conditions were accepted by the ITA. On 6 June 1961, the contract was given to Wales Television Limited. The name was changed to Wales (West and North) Television Limited following opposition from TWW.
The station was to use three VHF transmitters, Preseli (for the south west), Arfon (for the north west) and Moel-y-Parc (for the north east). The Preseli station was finished in 14 September 1962. WWN launched the same day as the Preseli transmitter, becoming the last original ITV station to start broadcasting. The Arfon and Moel-y-parc transmitters were delayed until later 1963, causing damage to workers morale and WWN's profits. The free programming from the ITV network, plus support from their neighbours, ABC, ATV and TWW were able to barely keep the station up and running. The fatal problem was when Granada Television stopped production of all Welsh programming, stopping an important stream of money to WWN. In May 1963, WWN stopped production of local programming and turned their studio into a master control station until they could find a successor to WWN.

2023 FIFA Women's World Cup final
The 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup Final was a football game that decided the winner of the tournament. It happened on August 20, 2023, at Stadium Australia in Sydney, Australia. The teams playing were Spain and England. A total of 75,784 fans were in the stadium to watch, and the referee was Tori Penso from the United States.
Both Spain and England were in their first-ever Women's World Cup final. They wanted to achieve a rare feat by winning both the men's and women's World Cups, something only Germany had done before in 2003. Also, they wanted to be the first team from Europe to win the tournament since Germany in 2007. This was the third time in the Women's World Cup history that two European teams faced each other in the final. In the past, new champions emerged in these matches.
Spain won the final with a score of 1-0. Olga Carmona scored the only goal, and Mariona Caldentey assisted her. Spain not only became the second country to win both the men's and women's World Cups, but they also achieved another remarkable milestone by holding all three World Cups of the same gender (senior, U-20, and U-17) at the same time, following in the footsteps of Brazil's male teams between 2003 and 2005.
Spain's coach, Jorge Vilda, was managing in his fourth major championship in a row, becoming the first man to lead a Women's World Cup-winning side since Norio Sasaki with Japan in 2011 and the first European man since Even Pellerud in 1995 to achieve this. England's manager, Sarina Wiegman, was in her fourth big tournament. She won the 2017 Euros, came second in the 2019 Women's World Cup with the Netherlands, and won the Women's Euro 2022 with England. She made history by leading different nations in multiple men's or women's World Cup finals and sought to become the first manager to win the tournament with a foreign national team. Unfortunately, she lost, becoming the first manager to lose two successive World Cup finals.
In the semi-finals, Spain faced Sweden. Spain scored first through Salma Paralluelo, but Sweden equalised with a goal from Rebecka Blomqvist. Shortly after, Olga Carmona scored a great goal, sending Spain to their second-ever senior World Cup final. This was Spain's first final since the men's team won the World Cup in 2010.
The game was described as exciting, with Spain having more clear chances to score towards the end. At the beginning, England played energetically and Spain was patient. The first shot happened in the 5th minute when England's Lauren Hemp kicked the ball at Spain's goalkeeper, Cata Coll. Spain then attacked and sent a cross into the box, but it didn't result in a goal. England had some good opportunities too, especially with passes to their forward Alessia Russo. In the 16th minute, Hemp had a great chance to score but hit the crossbar.
The match got more intense when Spain attacked and forced England's goalkeeper Mary Earps to make a quick save. Both teams had chances over the next few minutes. In the 23rd minute, a person ran onto the field and interrupted the game briefly. Spain got the ball back but their counterattack didn't work. Then, Spain's Olga Carmona scored a goal in the 29th minute after taking a shot that went between the goalkeeper and the post. Spain's goal came from a fast attack, not from their usual possession style. After this, England struggled and Spain had more chances to score.
In the second half, England changed their formation and brought in new players. They tried to defend better and create more opportunities, but they faced challenges. Spain got a penalty kick, but their shot was saved by England's goalkeeper. The game had some pauses due to injuries and video reviews. Spain controlled the game more in the later part, and despite England's efforts, they couldn't score. The match ended after extra time with Spain winning.
Spain has become the second country to win both the men's and women's World Cups. They're also the second country, after Brazil's male teams in 2003-2005, to hold all three World Cups of the same gender (senior, under-20, and under-17) at the same time. Salma Paralluelo is the first player, regardless of gender, to win all three World Cups in the same category.
In a match, Spain's captain and goalscorer, Olga Carmona, was named the best player. After scoring, she lifted her shirt to show an undershirt with "Merchi" written on it, which was the name of her friend's mother who had recently died. In the press room after the match, she dedicated the victory to her. Sadly, she was informed shortly after that her own father had also died before the match.
Later, while on a layover on his way back from Australia, Rubiales posted a video in which he apologized. He said he didn't have bad intentions and was sorry for taking attention away from the celebration. He mentioned that being the president requires being more careful. Rubiales faced a lot of criticism for his actions, and many people, including various Spanish football organizations and the government, called for him to resign. He and the national team coach, Vilda, tried to get Hermoso to support Rubiales by issuing a fake statement when she wouldn't. However, Hermoso released a statement through her union, Futpro, stating that the kiss was unacceptable, and they were working to see that it was appropriately addressed.
The RFEF scheduled an extraordinary general meeting for 25th August to discuss this matter.

Tanya Savicheva
Tanya was born on 23 Janaury 1930 in the village of Dvorishchi near Gdov, not far from Lake Peipus, but, liker her brothers and sisters, she grew up in Leningrad (which is why Leningrad is often erroneously indicated as her birthplace).
Maria decided in advance that she would not give birth in Leningrad, and in the last month of her pregnancy, she went to Dvorishchi to her sister Kapitolina, whose husband was a doctor and helped Maria give birth. She returned to Leningrad with her infant daughter Tanya, being already a few months old. It is unknown exactly when Tanya was born, though three possible dates are known:
Tanya's father, Nikolai, owned the Labor Artel of the Savichev brothers, opened by him in 1910 on the 2nd line of Vasilevsky Street in the Sovietskaya Street. Nikolai himself, Maria, and Nikolai's three brothers named Dmitry, Vasily, and Alexei, all worked in the bakery.
In the 1930's, Nikolai, who was a Nepman, became "a lishenet" and in 1935 the NKVD evicted the Savichevs from Leningrad, to put them on the 101st kilometer for the village of Borovichi, but after sometime the family were able to return to the city, however Nikolai fell ill in exile and died from cancer on 5 March 1936 at the age of 52. He was buried at the Smolensk Orthodox Cemetery not far from the chapel of Xenia the Blessed, where three of his other children were buried earlier in 1916.
Being the children of a "deprived person" all five Savichevs could not join the Komsomol and were limited in their choice of higher education. By the beginning of the war, Nina and Evgenia worked together at the Nevsky Plant named after Lenin (Evgenia worked in the archive and Nina worked in the design bureau). Leonid served as planer at the Admiralty Shipyards. Misha graduated from factory school and worked as a fitter. Maria was a seamstress, and worked as a homeworker in the sewing company "May 1 Artel" and was considered as one of the best embroiders there. Leonid was fond of music and together with his friends formed an amateur string orchestra. They often held rehearsals in Leonid's apartment. The Savichevs had many musical instruments that included a piano, guitars, a banjo, a balalaika, and a mandolin. In their free time, the Savichevs organized home concerts. Leonid and Mikhail played the instruments, Maria and Tanya sang, and the rest kept on with the chorus.
Nina and Misha remembered Tanya as "a very shy and not childishly serious girl".
According to them, "Tanya was a golden girl. Inquisitive, with a easy and even character. She was very good at listening. We told her about everything. About work, about sports, about friends, etc."
Tanya had a particularly good relationship with her uncle Vasily. He had a small library in his apartment, and Tanya asked him questions, mostly about life. They often took walks along the Neva.

Merer
Merer ( 25th century BC) was a Ancient Egyptian diarist and middle ranking official who kept the first known diaries.
His diaries mostly consists of the daily activities of him and his crew. The diaries also documents the transportation of white limestone blocks from Tura to Giza by boat. According to the diaries, the white limestone blocks were used to build the Great Pyramid of Giza. Merer also mentions in his diaries that Khufu (the Egyptian pharaoh, at the time) was in his 26th or 27th year of reign, at the time. According to the diaries, around forty boatmen worked under Merer. The diaries were discovered in 2013.
Merer was an Ancient Egyptian.
The first years of Merer's life is completely obscure.
In his adulthood, Merer was a middle ranking official who held the title "inspector" ("sHD").
Merer and his crew worked by transporting white limestone blocks from Tura to Giza, which were then used to construct the Great Pyramid of Giza, which is documented in Merer's diary.
Around forty boatmen worked under Merer.
Later in his life, Merer works as a construction builder in the Nile Delta and is attempting to build a "double djadja" in the region. And even later than that, Merer works at the residence of Egyptian pharaoh Khufu.
The last years of Merer's life are disputed.
The entries in those two diaries are all arranged in the same line.
At the top of every entry is a heading naming the month and season.
Under that there is a horizontal line listing the days of the months. Under the entries for the days, there are always two vertical columns describing what happened on these days (Section B II): "[Day 1] The director of 6 Idjeru casts for Heliopolis in a transport boat to bring us food from Heliopolis while the elite is in Tura", "Day 2 Inspector Merer spends the day with his troop hauling stones in Tura North; spending the night at Tura North."
In addition to Merer and his crew, a few other people are mentioned in the two diaries. The most important one is Ankhhaf, a half-brother of Khufu. Ankhhaf is known from other Ancient Egyptian sources dating to around his time. It is highly speculated that Ankhaf was a prince and vizier under Khufu and/or Khafre. In the diaries, Merer mentions that Ankhhaf is a nobleman and a overseer of a ship harbor at Giza.
It is highly speculated that the limestone blocks used to build the Great Pyramid were transported to the harbor.
In the two diaries, Merer writes mostly about his work.
The third diary reveals that Merer is working as a construction builder in the Nile Delta and is attempting to build a "double djadja" in the region, at the time.
The fourth diary reveals that Merer is working at the residence and the (?) of Khufu, at the time.

Grease duct
A grease duct is a duct that vents flammable vapors from commercial cooking equipment such as stoves and deep fryers to the outside of the building. It will normally be connected to an exhaust fan.
Vapors are created when grease is heated to and beyond its vaporization point. When it cools, the grease will condense on colder surfaces. Grease is a flammable hydrocarbon.
In many places, they will be constructed out of stainless-steel ductwork connected through a series of air filters which will be pulled by a fan and exhausted outside. They will also often have some form of fire damper in this ductwork connected to the fire alarm system.
These systems must be cleaned sometimes. Many will have certificates issued by the cleaning and maintenance contractors.
Problems with hoods that are not taken care of include poor ventilation, excess heat and smoke, and the potential risk of fires.

At one time the main occupation of the Yadavs of Bihar was rearing cattle, but now most of them are cultivator. While majority of Yadavs were peasants with minor landholdings in the Northern and Central parts of India, a few Yadavs had taken over large tract of land in the newly reclaimed portion of Eastern Bihar (Purnea and Saharsa) and had become big landholders.
There are four main sub-castes of Yadav/Ahirs in Bihar, Kishnaut, Majhraut, Kannaujia or Kanyakubja and Goria. Apart from these four, Ahir sub-caste like Ghoshi, Dhadhor and Sadgop are also found in small numbers. Among them the first three never sell either milk, ghee or butter, and have, to a large extent, became cultivator.
