Sudden Death Records

Sudden Death Records is a Vancouver, British Columbia based record label run by Joe "Shithead" Keithley, frontman of D.O.A.

Sudden Death Records arrived in Canada's burgeoning punk scene in 1978. Keithley formed the label to release his D.O.A.'s album Disco Sucks.

It was only a part-time label until 1998, when they began to expand further into punk rock music. In keeping with the "Do It Yourself" attitude of its founder Joe Keithley, Sudden Death Records remained a friend to smaller musicians while keeping multi-national record conglomerates at bay. In doing so, they have earned themselves the respect of numerous luminaries within the music industry.

Today, Sudden Death Records remains a popular label and have branched off into other areas of music, focusing not only on punk but also ska, rock, pop and other genres.

Picanoc River

The Picanoc River (pikanak or pakânâk) is tributary of the Gatineau River in the administrative region of Outaouais of Quebec, Canada.

The Picanoc River begins in the unorganized territory of Lac-Nilgaut, Quebec in Pontiac Regional County Municipality and ends in Gracefield in La Vallée-de-la-Gatineau Regional County Municipality.

Geography

Its headwaters originate  southeast of Lake Usborne and north of Lac Dumont in Pontiac County. It generally flows eastward by making a large loop to the south for a distance of . The Picanoc then widens forming Lac à la Loutre (Otter Lake) and discharges into Gatineau River at Wright (South of Gracefield municipality), in the MRC of La Vallée-de-la-Gatineau Regional County Municipality. It is part of Saint Lawrence River/Gulf of Saint Lawrence watershed.

Narrow and tumultuous, it is highly regarded by outdoor enthusiasts. It is  long, a class/grade II river with sections reaching class/grade III difficulty (based upon the International Scale of River Difficulty).

Historical and topographical landmarks

According to Eugène Rouillard (1906) quoting Father Georges Lemoine, "Pikanook" or "Picanock" is a variant of "pakanak", "walnut", of "Pakan", nuts, probably so named because of the nuts found there. Probably around this river were populated walnut, a wood prized by Native Americans for making their bows. The spelling and pronunciation of the Native American name underwent several consecutive changes to language contact. Thus do we find the form on a map Pikanook 1906 Wright Township, Pickanok on that of the Ministry of Mines and Fisheries of 1925 and on the Pickinock County Hull, also from 1925.

The current form "Picanoc" appears on a map of the Department of Lands and Forests in 1927. Picanoc also means a bridge, three lanes of communication and a small stream; the term was also used in the old name of the municipality of Gracefield.

The place name "River Picanoc" was formalized December 5, 1968, by the Commission de toponymie du Québec (Quebec Names Board).

Wifey (novel)

Wifey is a 1978 American novel written by Judy Blume.

Plot
The story follows the life of bored 1970s New Jersey housewife, Sandy Pressman, who decides to reinvigorate her life by having an extramarital affair with an old high school boyfriend. This decision is complicated when she accidentally discovers evidence her husband might be having a long-term affair. Somewhat emblematic of the time period of open marriages and different mores, this was the first novel by Blume to directly address adult lives and sexuality.

Author's commentary
"My first novel for adult readers! Funny and baaad, Sandy Pressman was raised to lead a fifties life. You know... grow up, get a college degree in case, god forbid, you ever have to go to work, marry well, have children and....that's the problem...and what??? For Sandy, it's the summer she begins to question her choices and give in to her fantasies.

"When Wifey was published some people thought I would never write another children's book, some thought I had written a real book at last, some were angry that I hadn't used a pseudonym, others that I even had such thoughts! Plus, I began to hear from old boyfriends. And those who wanted to be."

Girl in the Wind

disambiguation: for the 1992 anime see The Girl in the Wind

Girl in the Wind is the fourth album by Quarterflash, released on Epic Records in late 1991. Quarterflash, led by the husband-wife team of Rindy and Marv Ross, recruited new members for this release: Sandin Wilson on bass/vocals, Greg Williams on drums, Doug Fraser on guitars, and Mel Kubik on keyboards and saxophone. The new members gave the AOR band an edgier sound. Due to record-label changes, the album was only released in Europe.

The album includes acoustic rock songs "Something More", "Where I Stand", and "Diamond In The Rough", and the love ballads "Is It Any Wonder" and "Let Somebody Love You". The band went on to record an unreleased album in 1995 with the same lineup.

Marv and Rindy Ross released an album in 2002 called Bliss that has several songs from Girl in the Wind as well as four songs from the unreleased album.

Interstate 470 Bridge

The Vietnam Veterans Memorial Bridge is a four-lane tied arch bridge in the United States. It carries Interstate 470 over the Ohio River between Bellaire, Ohio and Wheeling, West Virginia.

History
Construction on the tied-arch bridge began in 1975, and was scheduled to be completed by 1981. Frays in the vertical hanger cables delayed the opening of the bridge, which was scheduled to open in July 1981. Additionally, delays in completing Ohio State Route 7 along the western shores of the river and Interstate 470 also resulted in the bridge not fully opening. 

The estimated cost to construct the span was about $54 million.

The opening of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Bridge, along with another bridge in nearby Moundsville was thought to have reduced the amount of traffic, and thus tolls collected by the nearby Bellaire Bridge by up to 50 percent in 1987.

Sodium iodate

Sodium iodate (NaIO3) is the sodium salt of iodic acid.  Sodium iodate is an oxidizing agent.  It has several uses.

Preparation
It can be prepared by the reacting a sodium-containing base such as sodium hydroxide with iodic acid, for example:
HIO3 + NaOH → NaIO3 + H2O

It can also be prepared by adding iodine to a hot, concentrated solution of sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate:
3 I2 + 6 NaOH → NaIO3 + 5 NaI + 3 H2O

Reactions
Sodium iodate can be oxidized to sodium periodate in water solutions by hypochlorites or other strong oxidizing agents:
NaIO3 + NaOCl →  NaIO4 + NaCl

Uses 
The main use of sodium iodate in everyday life is in iodised salt. The other compounds which are used in iodised table salt are  potassium iodate, potassium iodide, and sodium iodide. Sodium iodate comprises 15 to 50 mg per kilogram of applicable salt.

Sodium iodate is also used as a dough conditioner to strengthen the dough.

Safety
Iodates combined with organic compounds form an explosive mixture.

Mharda

Mharda (, ), also spelled Mhardeh, Muhardah or Mahardah, is a city in northern Syria, administratively part of the Hama Governorate, located about 23 kilometers northwest of Hama. It is situated along the Orontes River, near the Ghab plain. Nearby localities include Halfaya and Taybat al-Imam to the east, Khitab to the southeast, Maarzaf to the south, Asilah and Jubb Ramlah to the southwest, Shaizar, Safsafiyah, Tremseh and Kafr Hud to the west and Kafr Zita and al-Lataminah to the north.

According to the Syria Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS), Mharda had a population of 17,578 in the 2004 census. It is the center of Mahardah District, one of the Hama Governorate's five districts, and the nahiyah ("subdistrict") of Mharda, which contained 21 localities with a combined population of 80,165 in 2004. Mharda's population was estimated to be 22,442 in 2010. Its inhabitants are predominantly Christians.

Mharda's residents mostly work in agriculture, industry and trade. The educational level of population is reported to be high. The climate in the city is mild in summertime and occasional snowfall may be seen in winter.

The Orontes River was recently dammed 3 kilometers north, and the Mahardah Dam on the Ghab plain is used to generate hydroelectric power. Mharda dates back to the same Hellenistic period of Apamea and the most notable archaeological remnant from this period is an old temple with stone doors and columns with Corinthian capitals transformed later into a church.

Ghada Shouaa, the first Syrian track and field athlete to win an Olympic gold medal, was born in Mharda as well as Patriarch Ignatius IV of Antioch.

Mharda is the nearest large town to Tremseh in which killings took place on 12 July 2012. Additionally, a suicide bomber killed three civilians and one security officer in Mharda on 14 July 2012.

During the Syrian Civil War, Mharda has been targeted by rebels, yet remained under government control. According to pro-government media, the rate of attacks on Mharda increased during the course of the 2017 Hama offensive.

Sodium persulfate

Sodium persulfate is the inorganic compound with the formula Na2S2O8.  It is the sodium salt of peroxydisulfuric acid, H2S2O8, an oxidizing agent. It is a white solid that dissolves in water.  It is almost non-hygroscopic and has good shelf-life.

Production
The salt is prepared by the electrolytic oxidation of sodium bisulfate:
2 NaHSO4 -> Na2S2O8 + H2
Oxidation is conducted at a platinum anode. In this way about 165,000 tons were produced in 2005. 

The standard redox potential of sodium persulfate into hydrogen sulfate is 2.1 V, which is higher than that of hydrogen peroxide (1.8 V) but lower than ozone (2.2 V). The sulfate radical formed in situ has a standard electrode potential of 2.7 V.

However, there are a few drawbacks in utilizing platinum anodes to produce the salts; the manufacturing process is inefficient due to oxygen evolution and the product could contain contaminants coming from platinum corrosion (mainly due to extremely oxidizing nature of the sulfate radical). Thus, boron-doped diamond electrodes have been proposed as alternatives to the conventional platinum electrodes.

Structure
The sodium and potassium salts adopt very similar structures in the solid state, according to X-ray crystallography.  In the sodium salt, the O-O distance is 1.476Å.  The sulfate groups are tetrahedral, with three short S-O distances near 1.44 and one long S-O bond at 1.64Å.

Applications
It is mainly used as a  radical initiator for emulsion polymerization reactions for styrene based polymers such as Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene.  Also applicable for accelerated curing of low formaldehyde adhesives.

Other uses
It is a bleach, both standalone (particularly in hair cosmetics) and as a detergent component. It is a replacement for ammonium persulfate in etching mixtures for zinc and printed circuit boards, and is used for pickling of copper and some other metals.

It is also used as a soil conditioner and for soil and groundwater remediation and in manufacture of dyestuffs, modification of starch, bleach activator, desizing agent for oxidative desizing, etc.

Organic chemistry
Sodium persulfate is a specialized oxidizing agent in chemistry, classically in the Elbs persulfate oxidation and the Boyland–Sims oxidation reactions. It is also used in radical reactions; for example in a synthesis of diapocynin from apocynin where iron(II) sulfate is the radical initiator.

Safety
The salt is an oxidizer and forms combustible mixtures with organic materials such as paper.

Kermes vermilio

Kermes vermilio is a species of Kermes which feeds on trees. Some of the species are used by humans to make vermilion; though an at-similar-time-of-discovery mineral form in many cultures is cinnabar (crystallized HgS, mercury sulfide). For details of further chemical alternatives see vermilion.

Sister species

The word (and dye) crimson is a corruption-derivative of kermes – the organism's genus, chiefly referring to its other species.

Tell Me Baby

"Tell Me Baby" is a song from the Red Hot Chili Peppers' ninth studio album Stadium Arcadium. The song was released as the follow-up to the hit single "Dani California" on July 17, 2006. The single was not as successful as their prior single "Dani California" nor their next single "Snow (Hey Oh)" as far as chart success, but did reach number one on the Billboard Modern Rock chart and remained there for four weeks making it the band's second straight number one on that chart from Stadium Arcadium and tenth number one overall.

Composition
"Tell Me Baby" incorporates both the old funk rock sound from their Blood Sugar Sex Magik days in the verses of the song, and the chorus focuses on the more melodic sound found on more recent Chili Peppers albums. The song is about the dreams of pilgrims in Los Angeles who want to obtain fame and fortune.

Reception
Nick Mitchell at The Skinny gave the song three out of five stars, stating "Neither particularly complex nor memorable, "Tell Me Baby" is nevertheless an upbeat little number that may well ingratiate itself on your eardrums."

Music video
The music video for "Tell Me Baby" was directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris, a directing duo that has worked on many other Chili Peppers videos. Flea said, "It's the best [video] we ever did." For the video, Dayton and Faris interviewed and auditioned people who originally came to California to achieve some sort of fame and people who play music just for the sake of playing music. During the callback for the auditioned people, their second audition was filmed and the members of the Chili Peppers surprisingly entered the room during auditions to join in playing along.

Live performances
"Tell Me Baby" was performed often on the Stadium Arcadium World Tour and has been featured on all the tours that followed.

Sodium thiocyanate

Sodium thiocyanate (sometimes called sodium sulphocyanide) is the chemical compound with the formula NaSCN.  This colorless deliquescent salt is one of the main sources of the thiocyanate anion.  As such, it is used as a precursor for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other specialty chemicals.  Thiocyanate salts are typically prepared by the reaction of cyanide with elemental sulfur:

8 NaCN  +  S8  →  8 NaSCN

Sodium thiocyanate crystallizes in an orthorhombic cell.  Each Na+ center is surrounded by three sulfur and three nitrogen ligands provided by the triatomic thiocyanate anion. It is commonly used in the laboratory as a test for the presence of Fe3+ ions.

Applications in chemical synthesis
Sodium thiocyanate is employed to convert alkyl halides into the corresponding alkylthiocyanates.  Closely related reagents include ammonium thiocyanate and potassium thiocyanate, which has twice the solubility in water. Silver thiocyanate may be used as well; the precipitation of insoluble silver halides help simplify workup. Treatment of isopropyl bromide with sodium thiocyanate in a hot ethanolic solution affords isopropyl thiocyanate. Protonation of sodium thiocyanate affords isothiocyanic acid, S=C=NH (pKa = −1.28).  This species is generated in situ from sodium thiocyanate; it adds to organic amines to afford derivatives of thiourea.
