Ghetto Classics

Ghetto Classics is the third studio album by American R&B singer Jaheim. It was released by Warner Bros. Records on February 13, 2006 in the United States. As with his previous albums, production and songwriting duties were handled by former Naughty by Nature DJ KayGee as well as Terence "Tramp Baby" Abney, Darren Lighty, Eddie F, Bink, Scott Storch, Balewa Muhammad, Wesley Hogges, Eric Williams, and The Co-Stars.

It debuted at number one on both the US Billboard 200 and the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, selling 153,000 copies in its first week of release. Ghetto Classics spawned the moderate hit "Everytime I Think about Her", featuring Jadakiss. Although the album stayed on the album charts for only thirteen weeks, it was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) on March 21, 2006.

Critical reception

At Metacritic, which assigns a rated mean out of 100 from mainstream critics, the album received a score of 67, which indicates "generally favorable reviews," based on 13 reviews. Allmusic editor John Bush found that "Ghetto Classics may boast nothing as ambitious as 2002's [single] "Fabulous", and it may amp up the rapper collaborations in search of hits (Jadakiss and Styles P have appearances), but overall very little distracts from the qualities that have made him the most durable talent in commercial yet traditional R&B music [...] The final three songs ditch the samples for straight R&B, and while the absence is missed, it represents an intriguing direction for Jaheim in the future. Classic R&B may seem like just a memory to some, but with artists like Heather Headley and Jaheim in action, it doesn't have to be about the past."

Benzamidine

Benzamidine is an organic compound with the formula C6H5C(NH)NH2.  It is the simplest aryl amidine.  The compound is a white solid that is slightly soluble in water. It is usually handled as the hydrochloride salt, a white, water-soluble solid.

Structure
In terms of its molecular structure, benzamidine features one short C=NH bond and one longer C-NH2 bond, which are respectively 129 and 135 pm in length, respectively.

The triangular diamine group gives it a distinctive shape which shows up in difference density maps.

Applications
Benzamidine is a reversible competitive inhibitor of trypsin, trypsin-like enzymes, and serine proteases.

It is often used as a ligand in protein crystallography to prevent proteases from degrading a protein of interest. The benzamidine moiety is also found in some pharmaceuticals, such as dabigatran.

Condensation with various haloketones provides a synthetic route to 2,4-disubstituted imidazoles.

Beresford Republic

The Beresford Republic is the weekly newspaper of Beresford, South Dakota.  The newspaper is published every Thursday.

History
According to the Beresford Centennial Book (published in 1984), the Beresford Republic was founded by a Mr. Stroud in Elk Point, South Dakota. It was originally published under the title, the Union County Republican.  The first volume of that newspaper still survives in private hands and was put on display at the history exhibit during the celebration of the 125th anniversary of the incorporation of the city of Beresford, South Dakota in July 2009. The first issue of that newspaper was published on August 2, 1894. H. A. Sturges was reported to have owned the newspaper for twenty-seven years.

According to the Beresford Centennial Book, the newspaper was at the "end of its string" when it was taken over by Harry Sturges.  Later, he was said to have sold out his interests in the paper to his younger brother, H. A. Sturges.  By the start of the newspaper's fourth volume 1897, it was published in Beresford, South Dakota under the title, Union County Republic before the title of the newspaper was finally changed to the Beresford Republic in 1898.  

In 2023, a decision was made to merge the Beresford Republic with the Alcester Union-Hudsonite.  When the editor of the Alcester Union-Hudsonite retired in the spring of 2023, an  unsuccessful attempt was made to find a new editor; so, the offices of that newspaper were shut down.  The Alcester-Hudson newspaper was then merged with the Beresford newspaper to become the Alcester-Beresford-Hudson Republic on September 7, 2023.

During the school year, the Beresford High School newspaper, the Beresonian, is published as part of the Beresford Republic.

It is bordered on the north by the Danube and to the south and west by the state borders of Styria and Upper Austria respectively. The  forms the natural border to the east and gives the quarter its second name, "The Quarter over the ".

The name  comes from the term , which refers to the perry and cider made in the region. The lands between the Rivers  and  enjoy favorable conditions for growing fruit trees and are therefore the heart of a flourishing most industry. The Perry tree blossom in April is a regular highlight of the region. Typical in the  are vast meadows of mixed orchards surrounding a farmhouse, in the center of which is usually a square courtyard, and the lightly rolling foothills of the Alps.

In earlier times, when iron ore was still mined at , the work was done in hammer mills; today the steel mills take the half-finished product from the blast furnaces of Linz and  and turn it into blades for machines. In the , there is one large sawmill, plus many smaller ones, which process the wood taken from the forests. However, most of the economy is made up of small and mid-sized companies.

Most

Ernest M. Pollard

Ernest Mark Pollard (April 15, 1869 – September 24, 1939) was an American Republican Party politician.

He was born in Nehawka, Nebraska on April 15, 1869, and graduated from University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 1893. He farmed near Nehawka until he was elected to the Nebraska State house of representatives in 1896. He served until 1899 and then became president of the Nebraska Republican League in 1900.

In 1905 he was elected to the Fifty-ninth United States Congress after the resignation of Elmer J. Burkett who had been elected to the United States Senate. He was reelected to the Sixtieth United States Congress but failed in his 1908 bid for reelection to the Sixty-first United States Congress.

He farmed some and was a delegate to the 1912 Republican National Convention and a member of the Nebraska constitutional convention in 1920 and 1921. He moved to Lincoln, Nebraska and was appointed secretary of the State department of welfare and labor by Nebraska Governor Arthur J. Weaver in January 1929 serving until January 1931.

Oberek

The oberek, also called obertas or ober, is a lively Polish dance. Its name is derived from the Polish obracać się ("to spin"). It consists of many dance lifts and jumps. It is performed at a much quicker pace than the Polish waltz and is one of the national dances of Poland. It is the second-most popular dance in Polish-American music, after the polka.

Polish oberek (Folk) 
The oberek, in its original form, is a Polish folk dance and is the fastest of the Five National Dances of Poland. The Five National Dances are: Polonez (Polonaise), Mazur (Mazurka), Kujawiak, Krakowiak and Oberek. The Oberek consists of quick steps and constant turns. The beauty of the oberek depends on each individual dancer's talent of spinning at the fast tempo of the Oberek, which shares some steps with the Mazur.

The music for the oberek was typically performed by a small village band, kapela, dominated by the violin in central Poland.

Polish-American oberek (Social) 
The Polish-American oberek is a social dance, originally brought to America by Polish immigrants in late 1800s and early 1900s. This social dance derives from the folk dance oberek; however, the steps are slightly altered and the music is slightly different. Obereks are played by Polka bands throughout the United States.

Darren Kenton

Darren Edward Kenton (born 13 September 1978) is an English former professional footballer who last played for Rochester Rhinos in the USL First Division.

Career

Norwich City
Kenton was born in Wandsworth and started his career at Norwich City in 1997. He played 158 league games and scored nine goals for the Canaries in the old Football League First Division.

Southampton/Leicester City
Kenton signed for Southampton in 2003 on a free transfer. Kenton scored his only goal for Southampton in an FA Cup match against MK Dons on 7 January 2006.

Having been released by Southampton in May 2006, he joined Leicester City on 27 June 2006, a team for which he had previously had a loan spell in 2005.

He started the 2006–07 Championship season as a first-team regular, despite scoring an own goal against West Bromwich Albion in his sixth game for the club. He struggled with injury towards the end of the season. On 31 March 2007 he scored his first goal for the club in a 4–2 defeat away to Stoke City and got his second of the season in a 2–1 loss against Norwich City on 14 April 2007.

On 19 June 2007 Kenton was placed on the transfer list by then manager Martin Allen. However, the injury of Stephen Clemence and James Wesolowski on 23 October 2007 saw a recall into the senior squad, playing in midfield position. He was regularly involved in the first team in November and December 2007.

Leeds United
On 10 January 2008, Kenton joined League One side Leeds United on a one-month loan deal He then had his Leicester contract terminated by mutual consent on 31 January 2008 and he joined Leeds permanently on the same day. He played 12 games for the club as they finished sixth, but he did not play in their play-off campaign and he was released at the end of the season.

Cheltenham Town
On 2 October 2008, Kenton joined Cheltenham Town, he signed at the same time as former Leicester teammate James Wesolowski and linked up with former Leicester manager Martin Allen. He made 13 league appearances before turning down an extended contract and consequently left the club on 6 January 2009. He scored once for Cheltenham, in a 4–3 win over Colchester United.

Rochester Rhinos
After an unsuccessful trial with Toronto FC in February 2009, Kenton joined Rochester Rhinos on a one-year contract on 9 April.

WNAX-FM

WNAX-FM (104.1 MHz, "The Wolf") is a radio station broadcasting a country format.  Licensed to Yankton, South Dakota, it serves the Yankton, Vermillion, and Sioux City areas.  The station is currently owned by Saga Communications, Inc.

History
The station's original construction permit was granted to Oyate, Inc. on March 16, 1973; the call sign KQHU was issued on April 20, and the station signed on August 9. KQHU was formally licensed on June 11, 1974. In its early years, KQHU programmed popular standards and beautiful music; by 1976, it had pivoted to a blend of top 40 and oldies and was affiliated with the ABC Contemporary Network. The station evolved to adult contemporary by 1984.

Following regulatory issues with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regarding Oyate's ownership (which resulted in the FCC initiating license revocation proceedings), as well as the bankruptcy of Oyate, KQHU was sold to Flagship Communications for $599,000 in 1988. Flagship's principal owner, Lawrence S. Magnuson, already held an interest in KSCJ in Sioux City, Iowa; that station would come under the Flagship banner in 1989. KQHU's call sign was changed to KBCM on August 20, 1990.

Flagship Communications sold KBCM, which had become a country music station, to Park Communications for $675,000 in 1991; the deal, which paired the station with WNAX, was required because of Flagship's concurrent purchase of KSUX in Winnebago, Nebraska. Park renamed the station WNAX-FM on November 20, 1991, and changed its format to oldies. Saga Communications purchased the WNAX stations from Park for $7 million in 1996.

WNAX-FM changed its call sign to KMXH on September 1, 1998; it then became KCLH on September 25, coinciding with a format shift to classic hits and the addition of Bob & Tom. Though the format was successful in the Sioux City radio ratings and had no issues in attracting advertisers, financial considerations led KCLH to begin simulcasting WNAX's full service blend of news, farm information, and country music on August 21, 2000; also carried were some sports programming and Bill Mack. The WNAX-FM call sign returned on August 30. By 2001, while still simulcasting WNAX in morning drive, WNAX-FM had moved to a full-time country music format the remainder of the day. In June 2007, the station rebranded from "Big Country 104-1" to "The Wolf 104.1".

WNAX-HD2
On August 31, 2018, WNAX-FM launched a second country format, utilizing Saga's "Outlaw" classic country branding, on its HD2 subchannel. The subchannel is branded "99.9 & 104.5 The Outlaw" to reflect its simulcasts on translator stations K260BO (99.9 FM) in Yankton, South Dakota (which previously simulcast WNAX), and K283AG (104.5 FM) in Sioux City (which had previously served as a translator for WNAX-FM's primary programming).

History
The ENS LSH had its origins in two  that were founded in 1880 and 1882, located in Fontenay-aux-Roses (for female students) and Saint-Cloud (for male students), both near Paris.  In 1981, both became coed.  As part of France's process of decentralisation, the scientific departments moved to Lyon in 1987, with the creation of the ; humanities students remained in what was now called the ENS de Fontenay/St Cloud.  In 2000 the humanities were transferred to the newly created , also located in the Gerland district of Lyon's 7th arrondissement.  The  and the  merged on 1 January 2010, retaining the name .

Overview 
The ENS LSH carried out teaching and research across a range of disciplines in the arts, humanities and social sciences, with teaching concentrated on final-year undergraduate, Masters and PhD levels, and research conducted through different research groups and centres, many organised in conjunction with the CNRS.  Part of its mission was to train future university professors and researchers, as well as high school and classes préparatoires teachers, through preparation of students for the agrégation, France's highest-level teaching qualification.   All of the ENS LSH's teaching and research programmes, as well as its international partnerships and other activities, were transferred in 2010 to the new .

The Answers

The Answers is the first album by Blue October. It was recorded in October 1997, at Sound Arts Studio in Houston, Texas. It was released in the United States, during January 1998, by RoDan Entertainment/Scoop. It is Blue October's only album featuring founding member and bass guitarist Liz Mullally, who also played piano on the album.

For several years the band was not allowed to sell the album on its website or at concerts because of its contract with Universal Records. The album was only available by mail order directly from RoDan (Justin and Jeremy Furstenfeld's parents Roann and Dan Furstenfeld, who managed the band at the beginning) until an agreement was reached in 2005.

The album was re-released in the US by Universal Records in 2008. However, the re-released version was packaged in a digipak and did not include the booklet that accompanied the original version of the album. The Answers was also originally released on cassette tape in addition to CD. Cassette versions of the album are extremely rare, and have become collectors items among Blue October fans.

Between January and April 2018, the album became unavailable on various streaming services, such as Apple Music and Spotify. The reason for this change is unknown, but the rest of the band's catalogue remains on the platforms.

Many of the songs on the album deal with themes of depression, including "Black Orchid", which is about suicide.

Additive identity

In mathematics, the additive identity of a set that is equipped with the operation of addition is an element which, when added to any element  in the set, yields . One of the most familiar additive identities is the number 0 from elementary mathematics, but additive identities occur in other mathematical structures where addition is defined, such as in groups and rings.

Elementary examples
 The additive identity familiar from elementary mathematics is zero, denoted 0. For example,

 In the natural numbers  (if 0 is included), the integers  the rational numbers  the real numbers  and the complex numbers  the additive identity is 0.  This says that for a number  belonging to any of these sets,

Formal definition
Let  be a group that is closed under the operation of addition, denoted +. An additive identity for , denoted , is an element in  such that for any element  in ,

Further examples
 In a group, the additive identity is the identity element of the group, is often denoted 0, and is unique (see below for proof).
 A ring or field is a group under the operation of addition and thus these also have a unique additive identity 0. This is defined to be different from the multiplicative identity 1 if the ring (or field) has more than one element. If the additive identity and the multiplicative identity are the same, then the ring is trivial (proved below).
 In the ring  of -by- matrices over a ring , the additive identity is the zero matrix, denoted  or , and is the -by- matrix whose entries consist entirely of the identity element 0 in . For example, in the 2×2 matrices over the integers  the additive identity is

In the quaternions, 0 is the additive identity.
In the ring of functions from , the function mapping every number to 0 is the additive identity.
In the additive group of vectors in  the origin or zero vector is the additive identity.

Properties

The additive identity is unique in a group
Let  be a group and let  and  in  both denote additive identities, so for any  in ,

It then follows from the above that

The additive identity annihilates ring elements
In a system with a multiplication operation that distributes over addition, the additive identity is a multiplicative absorbing element, meaning that for any  in , . This follows because:

The additive and multiplicative identities are different in a non-trivial ring
Let  be a ring and suppose that the additive identity 0 and the multiplicative identity 1 are equal, i.e. 0 = 1. Let  be any element of . Then

proving that  is trivial, i.e.  The contrapositive, that if  is non-trivial then 0 is not equal to 1, is therefore shown.

Vanguard Cellular

Vanguard Cellular Systems, Inc. was a mobile phone carrier with headquarters in Greensboro, North Carolina.  It was the largest independent non-wireline cellular carrier in the 1990s. It was acquired by AT&T in 1999.

History
In September 1982, the company Collins, Hagel, and Clarke was formed by Bill Collins, Don Clarke, Dave Smith, and Chuck Hagel. In late 1984, "Collins, Hagel and Clarke and a group of North Carolina investors rolled all their cellular operations into a new company they called vanguard, dedicated to the telecommunications business. While the three original partners all initially served on the Vanguard board, Hagel was the only one of the three who became a Vanguard employee. He was an executive vice president until 1987."

In 1999, Vanguard was acquired by AT&T.

Operations
Vanguard Cellular Systems operated cellular systems in Maine, New York, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, South Carolina, and Florida and owned interests in other systems throughout the United States and internationally. Vanguard initially deployed the analog Nortel AMPS technology, and later migrated to the TDMA-based Digital AMPS (D-AMPS) technology.

Founders
There were three founders of Vanguard: Haynes Griffin, Rich Preyer and Steve Leeolou.

Founder Steven R. Leeolou is now CEO at Conterra Ultra Broadband in Charlotte, NC which employs several former Vanguard employees. Haynes Griffin, founding CEO of Vanguard, has been active in several telecom businesses. He is the currently chairman and CEO of SmartSky Networks which is deploying a nationwide air to ground wireless network to serve the aviation industry. He is also chairman and CEO of Greensboro-based Insect Shield, which makes insect repellent apparel. Rich Preyer, the third Founder, has been a very meaningful leader in area activities.

Tin Cans & Car Tires

Tin Cans and Car Tires is an album by moe. It was released in 1998. It marked the recorded debut of drummer Vinnie Amico, who had taken over the position from Chris Mazur in 1996. Most of the material on the album had been included in the band's live sets for a number of years before being recorded for the album, including "Queen of the Rodeo", which first appeared in 1995 as part of the "rock opera" Timmy.

Critical reception
The Washington Post thought that "there are still some examples of self-indulgence—opaque lyrics, overly fussy passages, odd time signatures for no good reason—but the album is dominated by eight songs where the conversational vocals, catchy melodies and Americana roots offer an accessible entry to the band's improvisatory dexterity."

Allison V-3420

The Allison V-3420 was a large experimental piston aircraft engine, designed in 1937 by the American Allison Engine Company.

Design and development
In 1937, at the behest of the United States Army Air Corps, the Allison Engine Company agreed to design and build a large-displacement high-power aircraft engine. The resulting V-3420 was essentially a pair of 12-cylinder Allison V-1710 engines mated to a common crankcase with a 30° angle between the inner cylinder banks. The crankshafts of the two V-1710 engines were geared together to drive a common propeller shaft. Most V-3420 parts were interchangeable with those for V-1710-E and -F engines.

The V-3420 had a power-to-weight ratio of 1.6 kW/kg or 1 hp/lb, excellent for its time. It was envisioned as a powerful yet compact engine for several advanced USAAF projects of the day, including the Douglas XB-19, the Boeing XB-39 Superfortress, the Lockheed XP-58 Chain Lightning, and the Fisher P-75 Eagle. As none of these designs saw more than limited production, only about 150 V-3420s were built.

Variants
V-3420-A16R (-11)
V-3420-A16L (-13)
left-hand rotation of propeller, single-stage supercharger with single-stage turbocharger and intercooler
V-3420-A18R (-17)
V-3420-A24
Supercharger ratio 7.2:1
V-3420-B (-23)
Similar to the -A but with mechanically driven supercharger in two variable-speed stages

Applications
 Boeing XB-39 Superfortress
 Douglas XB-19
 Fisher P-75 Eagle
 Lockheed XP-58 Chain Lightning

Susan Ertz

Susan Ertz (13 February 1887 – 11 April 1985) was an Anglo-American writer, known for her "sentimental tales of genteel life in the country." She was born in Walton-on-Thames, Surrey, England to American parents Charles and Mary Ertz. She moved back and forth between both countries during her childhood but chose to live in England when she was 18. She married British Army soldier, Major John Ronald McCrindle in London in 1932.

A common theme running through her work involves a female character "who is thrust out on her own from a sheltered environment into a vaguely hostile external world with which she is initially unprepared to cope. Her coming to terms with this hostile world provides the fictional interest of [her] novels." The Proselyte, the story of a London woman who marries a Mormon missionary and moves with him to Utah, was one of her most highly praised books (even Mormons felt that in "her story the hardships and sorrows of the people are clearly portrayed"). Ertz's Woman Alive is a science fiction novel set after all women other than the titular heroine have perished in a plague.

One of her later works, In the Cool of the Day, was the source of an eponymous movie in 1963, starring Jane Fonda, Peter Finch, and Angela Lansbury.

Interment.net

Interment.net is a United States-based website containing a free online database of transcriptions from headstones, intended to be a research tool for use by genealogists and historians.  , the site was one of the top 15 free genealogy websites on the Internet. Its cemetery database to date includes more than 6 million cemetery records from around the world. 

The database is limited to information transcribed from grave markers at cemeteries and/or obtained from burial records from cemetery offices.  The data includes surname, given name, birthdate, birthplace, death date, death place, age, inscription (including symbols), notes, and sometimes the location of the grave marker. The coverage of data addresses the problem for scholars and genealogists who cite the way cemetery records tend to be incomplete while some transcripts are inaccurate.

Many of the cemeteries transcribed on the site no longer exist, making the site one of the few sources for those inscriptions. Online cemetery databases with similar features include Findagrave.com and Billiongraves.com.

History
The site started in March 1997 as a personal web page called Cemetery Interment Lists on the Internet and was simply a list of links to websites with cemetery records.  In 1998, the site started accepting cemetery transcriptions directly; to stop the personal website from being overwhelmed, the page author registered the domain name "interment.net" in December 1998 and moved to a separate web hosting service.  By June 1999, the focus of the site had changed to hosting cemetery transcriptions, and the title was changed to Cemetery Records on the Internet, then later, Cemetery Records Online.

The site has had at least seven-page layouts since 1997.  It has been supported by advertising revenue since July 1999, and in 2005, the personal site owner incorporated Clear Digital Media, Inc. to control the site.  The company has since expanded, starting several other websites and weblogs. Interment.net is a volunteer website and is staffed by contributors and volunteers who go to cemeteries to take photographs for its digital repository and for transcription. Volunteers for these websites describe their labor as a "genealogical kindness," of particular service to those researching their ancestry.
