According to the "Mausala Parva" (7.185-253) of the "Mahabharata" a few years after the "Kurukshetra War", Andhaka-Vrsni Yadava clans of Dvaraka were destroyed due to a fratricidal war. Both Balarama and Krishna died soon after this war. Later, son of Kritavarma became ruler of Mrittikavati and grandson of Yuyudhana became ruler of the territory near the Sarasvati River. The rest of the surviving Yadavas took refuge in Indraprastha. Vajra, great-grandson of Krishna was installed as their king.
Vajra is mentioned as the great-grandson of Krishna in the Vishnu Purana. According to a section of this text (IV.15.34-42), he was the son of Aniruddha and Subhadra. But according or another section (V.32.6-7), he was the son of Aniruddha and Usha, daughter of Bana and granddaughter of Bali. Bahu (or Pratibahu) was his son and Sucharu was his grandson. Elsewhere in this text (V.38.34), he was mentioned as installed as king in Mathura instead of Indraprastha.
The narrative of the Yadava fratricidal war is also found in two Jataka tales of the Pali Buddhist canon: the "Ghata Jataka" and the "Samkicca Jataka". According to the "Ghata Jataka", Vasudeva, Baladeva and eight other "Andhaka-Venhu" (probably, a corrupt form of "Andhaka-Venhi", Pali equivalent to Sanskrit Andhaka-Vrishni) brothers seized Dvaravati and killed its king Kamsa. Later, these brothers fought amongst themselves and except Vasudeva and Baladeva everybody died. Vasudeva and Baladeva also died soon after. The "Samkicca Jataka" mentions that the "Andhaka-Venhu"s killed each other. Kautilya also in his (I.6.10) mentioned about the destruction of Vrishni clan because of their foolhardiness.
According to a modern historian, Romila Thapar, the kinship system of the Yadavas shows traces of matrilineal structure, which is found from the mention of their cross-cousin marriages. This is particularly prohibited in the Indo Aryan kinship system. The Vishnu Purana mentions that Krishna married Rukmini, a Vidarbha princess. His son Pradyumna married Kakudvati, daughter of Rukmin, brother of Rukmini. Pradyumna's son Aniruddha married Subhadra, granddaughter of Rukmin.
Collegium musicum
A collegium musicum (plural: collegia musica) is a group of music lovers and musicians. They come together to perform music. There were many collegia musica in 18th-century Germany. They were often not employed by churches or noblemen.
Georg Philipp Telemann created a collegium musicum in Leipzig. Johann Sebastian Bach would later become the leader of this collegium.
Ottoman Turkey
The Ottoman dynasty rule of the Turkey lasted from 1299 to 1922. The Ottoman Turks, were the Turkic founding and most populated ethnic group of the Ottoman Empire.
The Ottoman principality included other Turkish-speaking Muslims and non-Turkish Christians. Turks had advantages over non-Turks on issues like taxation, voting and legal rights.
The Ottomans invaded Europe in the 1350s. They dominated the Mediterranean Sea. In 1453, they invaded Constantinople (the capital city of the Byzantine Empire). The Turks blocked all major land routes between Asia and Europe. West Europeans had to find other ways to trade with the East.
Scinax danae

"Lift Every Voice and Sing" is a hymn. James Weldon Johnson wrote the words of the hymn. His brother, J. Rosamond Johnson wrote the music. The hymn is from the point of view of African Americans, in the late 19th century. It is a prayer of thanksgiving, faithfulness, and freedom. Images in the hymn are from the book of Exodus in the Bible, where the people are freed from slavery, and led to the "promised land".
The song was first performed in 1900. It has been popular in Black communities since then. In 1917, the NAACP began to promote the hymn as a "Negro national anthem". It has been part of 42 different Christian hymnals. Different African American singers and musicians have also performed it.
After the Great Fire of 1901, the Johnsons moved to New York City to work on Broadway. In the years that followed, "Lift Every Voice and Sing" was sung within Black communities; Johnson wrote that "the school children of Jacksonville kept singing it; they went off to other schools and sang it; they became teachers and taught it to other children. Within twenty years it was being sung over the South and in some other parts of the country."
A sculpture by Augusta Savage named after the song was shown at the World Fair in New York in 1939. It showed children singing, and the children stood in a group which was shaped like a harp. Savage was the only Black woman asked to make something for the Fair. The sculpture was called "The Harp" by organizers. Small copies of it and postcards showing it were sold at the fair. Like many other things shown at the fair, it was thrown away when the fair closed.
In 1919, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) called "Lift Every Voice and Sing" the "Negro national anthem". It did this, because of the song's power in voicing a cry for liberation and affirmation for African American people. James Weldon Johnson would become the NAACP's first executive secretary the following year. It has also been called "the Black national anthem".
Calling the song "the Black national anthem" has been criticized. Timothy Askew, an associate professor at the historically Black Clark Atlanta University, argued that the use of the term "Black national anthem" could incorrectly say that Black communities wanted to separate from other Americans. In his view, the words of the hymn do not overtly refer to any specific race, and "identity should be developed by the individual himself, not by a group of people who think they know what is best for you." Because of this, the song has also been sung by people who are not African American. Some Conservative commentators have similarly criticized performances and references to "Lift Every Voice and Sing" as the "Black national anthem" as separatist and diminishing to "The Star-Spangled Banner" as the national anthem of the United States.
In response to Askew's remarks, the NAACP's then-senior vice president of advocacy and policy Hilary O. Shelton told CNN that the hymn "was adopted and welcomed by a very interracial group, and it speaks of hope in being full first-class citizens in our society", used in conjunction with the U.S. national anthem or the Pledge of Allegiance during public events, "It is evident in our actions as an organization and here in America it is evidence that we are about inclusion, not exclusion. To claim that we as African-Americans want to form a confederation or separate ourselves from white people because of one song is baffling to me."
In February 2022, Representative Jim Clyburn said that he wanted "Lift Every Voice and Sing" to become the "national hymn" of the United States.
In mid-2020, "Lift Every Voice and Sing" began to receive wider public attention amid nationwide protests over the police murder of George Floyd: it was sung during demonstrations and other events which were held in solidarity. Presidential candidate Joe Biden referenced the hymn in his action plan for addressing racial disparities in the United States, which was titled "Lift Every Voice: The Biden Plan for Black America". On June 19, 2020, Google featured a Juneteenth-themed animation on its home page, set to a spoken word rendition of the hymn's first verse by LeVar Burton. In 2021, Vanessa Williams sung "Lift Every Voice and Sing" on the PBS Independence Day special "A Capitol Fourth", marking the recognition of Juneteenth as a federal holiday.
The hymn also began to be used in sporting events: during NASCAR's 2020 Pocono 350, musicians Mike Phillips and West Byrd quoted "Lift Every Voice and Sing" as part of their rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner", while the National Football League announced that "Lift Every Voice and Sing" would be played or performed as part of the pre-game ceremonies of all Week 1 games during the 2020 season. The decision came as part of a new social justice campaign being introduced by the NFL, stemming from the league's acknowledgements of the Black Lives Matter movement, and its handling of players taking a knee during the singing of the national anthem in order to protest against racial inequality and police brutality. The NFL's opening night kickoff game featured a filmed performance of the hymn by Alicia Keys at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, which was later replayed as part of the pre-game show of Super Bowl LV on February 7, 2021. The NFL stated that it would again feature the hymn at Week 1 games and other "tentpole" events (including the NFL Draft and playoff games) during the 2021 season. Some African American fans who were interviewed by NBC News felt that the NFL's decision was "pandering" that would not have a material impact on the league's pursuits of social justice.

At the time of his death in January 2007, at the age of 115 years and 156 days, Mercado was the second oldest fully validated male ever, behind Danish-American Christian Mortensen's record of 115 years 252 days, Although Shigechiyo Izumi was still believed to be older at the time of his death. Izumi's record was withdrawn by Guinness World Records in 2010.

He was the last remaining undisputed person born in 1891, and the last remaining undisputed male person born before 1895. After Mercado's death, Emma Tillman took over as the world's oldest person, but died 4 days later.
A hymnal is a collection of hymns. All the people ("the congregation") usually sing some of these hymns, during a Christian religious service. A hymnal is different form a song book; each group has its own hymnal. Groups who aren't religious also have hymnals: there's one for scouts, there are hymals for different student associations, or for soldiers.
Hymnals usually contain the text of the hymn, and sometimes there are scores (which render the melody). For hymns that are well-known, the score may be missing.
An ongoing outbreak of monkeypox was confirmed on 6 May 2022 in the United Kingdom, beginning in a British resident who had travelled to Nigeria, where the disease is endemic, and while there, had symptoms of monkeypox on 29 April 2022. This person returned to the United Kingdom on 4 May, becoming the index case of the outbreak into the country.
Cases have been reported in many countries in Europe, with some in North and South America, Israel and Australia. Before the global outbreak, monkeypox was endemic in West and Central Africa.
On 20 May 2022, the World Health Organization (WHO) held an emergency meeting to discuss the outbreak. On 23 July 2022, WHO announced that the outbreak is a Public Health Emergency of International Concern.
The smallpox vaccine Imvanex (Jynneos) is 85% effective against monkeypox. The UKHSA has begun using Imvanex as post-exposure treatment for close contacts of known cases. There is no evidence that this vaccination will not be effective during this outbreak.
Endemic (epidemiology)
In epidemiology, an infection is said to be endemic in a population when that infection is not spread quickly or not a lot of people are infected for it to become a pandemic. For example, chickenpox is endemic (steady state) in the United Kingdom, but malaria is not.
Monkeypox is an infectious disease caused by the monkeypox virus that can happen in certain animals, including humans. Symptoms begin with fever, headache, muscle pains, swollen lymph nodes, and feeling tired. This is followed by a rash that forms blisters and forms a hard layer. The time from exposure to feeling these symptoms is around 10 days. The duration of symptoms is typically two to four weeks.
Monkeypox was first identified in 1958 among laboratory monkeys in Copenhagen, Denmark. Monkeys are, however, not a natural carrier of the virus. The first cases in humans were found in 1970 in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
The 2022 monkeypox outbreak is the index case of widespread community transmission outside of Africa, which began in the United Kingdom in May 2022, with more cases confirmed in Europe, North America and Australia.
It can be successfully treated using preparations from the purple pitcher plant, which Native Americans used as a smallpox remedy.
Monkeypox virus
Monkeypox virus (MPV or MPXV) is a double-stranded DNA, zoonotic virus that causes monkeypox in humans and other animals. It belongs to the genus "Orthopoxvirus" in the family Poxviridae. It is not related to smallpox. Monkeypox disease is similar to smallpox, but with a milder rash and lower death rate.

Rao Laxmi Chand
Rao Laxmi Chand was an Yaduvanshi Ahir King of Delhi. He was the Leader of the Indian rebellion of 1857 in Delhi.
In addition to the troops stationed at his forts, he had an army of 15,000 infantry and 8000 cavalry when he died.
Rao Laxmi Chand was born in Najafgarh in Royal Yaduvanshi Ahir family. His Family traced roots from Karnawas Village in Rewari who later settled in Najafgarh to Rule Delhi.
Najafgarh Fort was built by Rao Puran Singh in 18th century. Najafgarh Fort is considered one of the strongest forts because the British could not capture it 3 times. Later after hanging Rao Laxmi Chand, the fort was demolished and his army was recruited by British.
Rao Laxmi Chand and his cousin Prank Sukh Yadav, fought against the British on 16 November 1857 in the field of Rajpath with an army of around 5,000 infantry and 3000 cavalry. To further fortify his armed strength, the Raja not only raised new levies but also collected as much as possible latest weaponry and other war material as was revealed from the recovery of large number of horses, bullocks, carts, English rifles and dresses from his fort after the British assaulted him.
After the Battle of Nasibpur fought by Rao Tula Ram(King of Ahirwal) and Rao Gopal Dev(King of Jhajjar-Hisar-Charkhi Dadri) against British was unsuccessfull due to attack by the Rajput, Sikhs and Jat soldiers who fought for the British, Prank Sukh Yadav joined Rao Laxmi Chand to attack British in Rajpath. On the first day i.e.16 November 1857, Rao Laxmi Chand forces were irresistible and the British forces scattered before them; several British Offices and Government Offices were captured by Rao Laxmi Chand. Most of the Governing building from where the top Birtish Officials controlled the Nation were captured. Britishers recruited a large number of Soldiers and attacked the buildings captured by him and His fort in Najafgarh on 22 December 1857 and defeated Rao's forces by 23 December 1857 by open bombing on the Revolutionaries.
After The British successfully defeated Rao Laxmi Chand, Britishers offered him to work for them and they will reciprocate the favour by again making him the King of West, South West and South Delhi as He had strong influence in the region and it would have been easier for the Britisher to Control the people but he denied and was hanged on 23 December 1857 in Rajpath.
The Taj Mahal was auctioned twice by the British in 1831, the condition of these auctions being that the person who buys the beautiful stones of the Taj Mahal would have to be handed over to the British government.
During that time, Rao Laxmi Chand, who went for shooting in Mathura district with his forces , made the highest bid and bought the Taj Mahal, that is why the Taj Mahal is still standing proudly in its country, otherwise Taj Mahal was about to be demolished.
On 23 December 1857, He was banged in Rajpath in Delhi by East India Company at the age of 47 fighting against the British and refusing to work for them.
Government of Delhi named a highway on the name Shaheed Rao Laxmi Chand Marg.
A park named on Rao Laxmi Chand is also in Delhi.
A Shahidi mela is held annually in December at Najafgarh district of Delhi to hounor the shaheedi of Rao Laxmi Chand.
An arcology (portmanteau of "architecture" and "ecology") is a completely self sufficient building or complex which not only would provide the basic facilities of a city or town, but would also produce its own electricity and food as well as recycle its own waste. The building or compound would thus be akin to a self-contained ecosystem.
Many designs for arcologies have been proposed over the years. These include Broadacre City by Frank Lloyd Wright and Mile-high Chicago. The design for Mile-high Chicago was a tall building with 527 floor levels. Other examples include Tokyo SkyCity, SpaceCity 6000, Shimizu Mega-City Pyramid and Freedom Ship.
Memphis Pyramid
The Pyramid Arena or Memphis Pyramid is a pyramidal sports facility and store located in Memphis, Tennessee. The building has served numerous purposes since its construction in 1991.

When it first opened, the Memphis Pyramid was an indoor stadium capable of seating 20,142 people.
A campground is a park where people can rent sites to go camping. Usually, campers pitch tents or park travel trailers or motorhomes, but some campgrounds also offer shacks or cabins.
Motorhome
A motorhome, recreational vehicle or in British English, a caravan is a bus-like vehicle equipped for habitation, like a house on wheels. Typically, a motorhome will include a lounge area, dining area, small bathroom, a galley \kitchen and a corridor leading to a rear bedroom, though some have two or three bedrooms.
Motorhomes generally fall into four classes: Class A, Class B, Class B+, and Class C.
Class A Motorhomes are one of the biggest RVs and can accommodate up to eight people. They offer all the features of a small apartment with the largest square footage when it comes to RVs and reaching 29-45 feet in length. This class offers slide outs, bottom storage, various awnings, full kitchen & bathroom, as you will usually find a queen size bed in the master bedroom.
Class B Motorhomes, also known as van campers, are the smallest type of motorhome and can accommodate up to four people. They range from 18 to 24 feet in length, have a cabin that is smaller than what is offered under classes A and C, and use less fuel.
Class B+ Motorhomes are like bigger versions of Class B motorhomes and offer a different set of luxuries. They bring together characteristics of Class B and Class C motorhomes and can feature bigger kitchens, living space, sleeping space with twin beds/sofa beds, and a stand-up shower/bath combo.
Class C Motorhomes represent something of a middle ground between Class A and Class B. They are great for couples or a group of friends and can sleep up to eight people, which is why they are popular with timeshare arrangements that allow for fractional ownership between different families. They offer all the typical luxuries of Class A motorhomes as well as generous amounts of space and have the appearance of a larger van camper with an overhead cabin.
Caravan (trailer)
A travel trailer or caravan is a trailer designed and built for short term habitation, like while camping. Such a trailer usually has a sleeping area (if not a full on bedroom), kitchenette, small bathroom and a living area. Unlike a motorhome, travel trailers don't run under their own power.

Its population is 9,378 as of January 2020. The administrative center of the municipality is in Sisimiut (which used to be called Holsteinsborg).
Qeqqata was created on 1 January 2009. Kangerlussuaq and two older municipalities of western Greenland, Maniitsoq Municipality and Sisimiut Municipality, were combined to make Qeqqata. Kangerlussuaq used to be unincorporated, which means that it was not a part of any municipality.
Most of the settlements and trade in Qeqqata are along the coast.
Qeqqata borders Sermersooq municipality in the south and in the east. In the north, it borders the Qeqertalik municipality. The Davis Strait, which separates Greenland from Baffin Island, is to the west. It has an area of . This makes it it the second-smallest municipality of Greenland, after Kujalleq.
Qeqqata's municipal council has 15 members. They are elected every four years.
