Leg spin
Leg spin is a type of bowling style in cricket where the ball is spun with the wrist. It makes the ball move strangely, making it hard for the batsman. Leg spin is tricky and uses different types of spins to confuse the batsman. It's a difficult but interesting part of cricket. The leg spinner's normal delivery causes the ball to spin from right to left "(from the bowlers perspective)." The ball generally spins away from the leg side, and this is where it gets the name leg break, meaning it breaks away from the leg.

The Centennial Light is an incandescent light bulb that has been on near-continuously since 1901. It is located at 4550 East Avenue, Livermore, California. It has also been noted by Guinness World Records.
The Centennial Light was manufactured in Shelby, Ohio, by the "Shelby Electric Company" in the late 1890s. In 1901, Dennis Bernal donated the bulb to the fire department after he sold the "Livermore Power and Water company." The bulb was first located in a hose cart house on L Street, and then moved to the main firehouse on Second Street shortly after. In 1903, the bulb was moved to the new Station 1 firehouse. The bulb stayed there for 73 years. In 1976, the bulb was moved to its current location with a police and fire truck escort. The cord had to be cut to move the bulb, as the firefighters feared unscrewing the bulb would damage it.
The Centennial Light originally produced 30-60 watts of light, but it currently runs on only four watts.
Roman Syria
The Polish-Lithuanian-Muscovite Commonwealth, also known as the Triple Union in Polish (unia troista) was a proposed union between the Tsardom of Russia and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Most of the propositions were made between 1574 and 1658. The union was rejected by one or both sides at various times because they didn't want a union.
The first proposal of the union was made in the 16th century, when the last king of the then ruling Polish Jagiellon dynasty died. Many people in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth wanted the Commonwealth to be ruled by Tsar Ivan IV of Russia ("the Terrible"). Ivan offered to decrease the power of the Polish-Lithuanian magnates (high nobility in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth). Two diplomatic missions were sent from Poland to Moscow, which both failed due to the two sides not being able to agree on a compromise. This was due to the earlier Livonian War (where the Tsardom fought the Commonwealth) and Tsar Ivan's demands of the former territory of Kievan Rus, which Lithuania held. Eventually, negotiations were dropped, and the pro-Ivan faction in the Commonwealth agreed to stop supporting Ivan in becoming the king.
The second proposal was made after the death of Tsar Ivan, as Feodor I was made Czar of Russia. After the Polish king's death, Feodor sent a diplomatic mission to the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The Lithuanians supported him, but Poland asked for things such as Feodor becoming a Catholist, which the Tsar did not want to do. After the next Polish king was elected, Sigismund III Vasa, he asked to become the Tsar of Russia. However, by the time the proposal made it to Moscow, a new Tsar took control of Russia.
The last proposal by the Tsardom would be made in the Russo-Polish War of 1654, where the union would be a part of the treaty. The Polish, however, gave demands that the Russians did not accept. These once again included things such as the Tsar becoming Catholist, as well as territorial changes this time.
Magnates of Poland and Lithuania
The magnates of Poland and Lithuania were an important group of people in the politics of the Polish-Litihuanian Commonwealth. They became an aristocracy around the 16th century and gained more and more power over first the Grand Duchy of Lithuania and the Kingdom of Poland, and later, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. By the end of the Commonwealth, in the late 18th century, magnates were one of the most important roles in the politics of the Commonwealth. The most powerful of magnates were known as "little kings" because of their rank and influence over the Commonwealth.

Russian republic
The Russian Republic, officially the Russian Democratic Federal Republic, was a short-lived state that existed from 1917 to 1918. It replaced the former Russian Empire, and was the last non-communist unified Russian nation before the beginning of the Russian Civil War. It was created by the Russian Provisional Government in 1917, another short-lived state that replaced the Russian Empire. While the Bolsheviks had removed the government of the Republic, there would be one more attempt to recreate the Russian Republic in 1918, which ended in the Bolsheviks once again removing the government, a day later.
After the February Revolution, Nicholas II resigned from the throne as Tsar of the Russian Empire, and a provisional government was formed. This provisional government was semi-democratic (with power split between the Bolsheviks and the provisional government), however had a very fragile government. In July 1917, the then leader of the Republic, Georgy Lvov resigned after not being able to gain the support of the Russian people. Lavr Kornilov gained control of the Republic, and created another provisional government. Bolshevik forces would remove the government in charge of the Republic in November 1917, but the government continued to "de jure" exist until January 1918.

Morality and religion
Religion and morality are not the same thing. There is often a link between morality and religion but this is not always true. The religion of a person will often affect the moral values of that person. Most religions have ideas as to what is right or wrong, or how a person should behave in a given situation. Most civilizations also have a moral code that that group of people find acceptable. These two codes are not always the same. Religion are often built around on morality. They will often develop alongside morality, but morality does not always depend upon religion. People who do not follow a religion also have moral values. In some cases, political leaders say what people should see as right or wrong. Philosophical frameworks such as consequentialism, freethought, utilitarianism and humanism also have a moral component. None of these are influenced by religion.

List of U.S. state and territory abbreviations
Several sets of codes and abbreviations are used to represent the political divisions of the United States for addresses, data processing, general abbreviations, and other purposes.
This table has abbreviations for three independent countries related to the United States through Compacts of Free Association, and other comparable postal abbreviations, including those not used anymore.
As early as October 1831, the United States Post Office recognized common abbreviations for states and territories. However, they accepted these abbreviations only because of their popularity, recommending that people spell names out fully to avoid confusion.
The traditional abbreviations for U.S. states and territories, widely used in mailing addresses before the start of two-letter U.S. postal abbreviations, are still regularly used for other purposes (such as legal citation), and are still recognized (though discouraged) by the Postal Service.
Modern two-letter abbreviated codes for the states and territories began in October 1963, with the issuance of "Publication 59: Abbreviations for Use with ZIP Code", three months after the Post Office introduced ZIP codes in July 1963. The purpose was to make room in a line of no more than 23 characters for the city, state, and the ZIP code.
After 1963, only one state abbreviation has changed. Originally Nebraska was "NB"; but, in November 1969, the Post Office changed it to "NE" to avoid confusion with New Brunswick in Canada.
Prior to 1987, when the U.S. Secretary of Commerce allowed the two-letter codes for use in government items, the United States Government Printing Office (GPO) suggested its own set of abbreviations, with some states left unabbreviated. Today, the GPO supports United States Postal Service standard.
Legal citation manuals, such as "The Bluebook" and "The ALWD Citation Manual", usually use the "traditional abbreviations" or other abbreviations.
The United States Postal Service (USPS) has made a set of uppercase abbreviations to help process mail with optical character recognition and other automated equipment. There are also official USPS abbreviations for other parts of the address, such as street designators (street, avenue, road, etc.).
These two-letter codes are different from traditional abbreviations such as Calif., Fla., or Tex. The Associated Press Stylebook says that in situations other than mailing addresses, the traditional state abbreviations should be used. However, the Chicago Manual of Style now recommends the use of the uppercase two-letter abbreviations, with the traditional forms as an option.
These codes do not overlap with the 13 Canadian subnational postal abbreviations. The code for Nebraska changed from NB to NE in November 1969 to avoid a conflict with New Brunswick. Canada likewise chose MB for Manitoba to prevent conflict with either Massachusetts (MA), Michigan (MI), Minnesota (MN), Missouri (MO), or Montana (MT).
The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) uses a set of two-letter prefixes for vessel numbers; 39 states and the District of Columbia have the same USPS and USCG abbreviations. USCG prefixes have also been made for five outlying territories; all are the same as the USPS abbreviations except the Mariana Islands. The twelve cases where USPS and USCG abbreviations are different are listed below and marked in bold red in the table above; they include three inland states with a small Coast Guard group. These twelve abbreviations were changed to avoid conflicting with the ISO 3166 two-digit country codes.
Blockade of the Gaza Strip (2023)
The blockade of Gaza was undertaken by Israel, in response to the Hamas offensive against Israel. The blockade began in the Gaza Strip on 9 October 2023. Even though the blockade was lifted after couple of weeks, it resulted in a serious humanitarian crisis.
The Gaza-Israel conflict is a long running dispute between the Gaza Strip "(a Palestinian territory)" and Israel. It revolves around political, territorial and security matters, and it has resulted in violence, wars, genocide and ongoing tensions. Key issues include border disputes, control of resources and the political self-determination of Palestinians in Gaza.
Human Rights Watch have described the Gaza Strip, which has been under an Israeli blockade since 2007, as an "open-air prison".
