Sierra Academy of Aeronautics

The Sierra Academy of Aeronautics is an aviation flight school headquartered in Atwater, California.  It operates its training facility at the former Castle Air Force Base in Atwater, California.  Sierra Academy was contracted by several foreign air carriers to perform pilot training, including Shanghai Airlines.

History
The Sierra Academy formerly was based at the Oakland International Airport, where it had hangars, offices, and classrooms. It was owned by the Everett family of Atherton, California.

In 1996, Hani Hanjour who would later fly a hijacked airliner into the Pentagon was admitted to the Sierra Academy of Aeronautics, but before beginning flight training, the academy arranged for Hanjour to take intensive English courses at ELS Language Center in Oakland. The flight school also arranged for Hanjour to stay with a host family, with whom he moved in with on May 20, 1996. Hanjour completed the English program in August, and in early September 1996, he attended a single day of ground school courses at the Sierra Academy of Aeronautics before withdrawing, citing financial worries about the $35,000 cost.

Two Korean business men, Dan and John Yoon, bought the company as open of an asset sale, and re-opened the flight school, operating under KS Aviation (KSA). 

In 2004, the new owners moved its Oakland program to the former Korean Airlines facility at the airport in Livermore, California(KLVK). The company took advantage of the growing Indian market and began accepting students from all over India. This was mostly a result of the declining U.S. based students who could no longer find funding for flight training. While the Livermore campus was running, KSA also opened up a large campus at Castle Airport (KMER, formerly Castle AFB) in 2005.  
In January 2007, the company started moving all remaining students and employees to its existing facilities at the former Castle AFB (KMER).  
In February 2014, The FAA proposed a civil penalty of $204,050 against Sierra for "allegedly operating nine Cessna 152 airplanes when they were not in compliance with Federal Aviation Regulations." The FAA alleged that Sierra  did not properly inspect the seat locking pins. An improperly engaged pin could lead to the seat slipping and the pilot losing control of the airplane.

Awards 
In 1992 the National Air Transportation Association (NATA) honored Sierra Academy of Aeronautics with the Excellence in Pilot Training Award. This national award, sponsored by Jeppesen Sanderson, provides recognition for "outstanding contributions in safety, professionalism, leadership, and excellence in the field of pilot training."

Indiana State Road 111

State Road 111 (SR 111) in the U.S. State of Indiana is a rural two-lane highway that runs between New Boston and New Albany in the far southern portion of the state. It has existed since 1935. Part of the highway was decommissioned in October 2012 and more was decommissioned in January 2013.

Route description

The southern terminus of State Road 111 is at a dead end on the shores of the Ohio River, near the small community of New Boston. From there, it runs to the north and east, closely following the course of the river for about , at which point it intersects with the east–west State Road 211. It continues to follow the river toward Bridgeport. It continues north, entering downtown New Albany. From there, it turns to meet at its current northern terminus at the intersection of Main Street and State Street.

History

Before 1935, SR 111 was known as SR 133. When U.S. Route 33 (US 33) was commissioned in Indiana, SR 33 was decommissioned. SR 133 followed the same route as SR 111. In October 2012, the portion of SR 111 in Clark County was turned over to the county, with the Floyd County portion turned over to the county in January 2013.

Prehnite-pumpellyite facies

The prehnite-pumpellyite facies is a metamorphic facies typical of subseafloor alteration of the oceanic crust around mid-ocean ridge spreading centres. 

It is a metamorphic grade transitional between zeolite facies and greenschist facies representing a temperature range of 250 to 350 °C and a pressure range of approximately two to seven kilobars. The mineral assemblage is dependent on host composition. 
In mafic rocks the assemblage is chlorite, prehnite, albite, pumpellyite and epidote. 
In ultramafic rocks the assemblage is serpentine, talc, forsterite, tremolite and chlorite.
In argillaceous sedimentary rocks the assemblage is quartz, illite, albite, and stilpnomelane chlorite. 
In carbonate sediments the assemblage is calcite, dolomite, quartz, clays, talc, and muscovite.

Indiana State Road 128

State Road 128 (SR 128) is a state road in the central part of the U.S. state of Indiana. Running for about  in a general east–west direction, connecting Frankton and rural Madison County. The western terminus is at a junction with SR 13 and SR 37, south of Elwood. The eastern terminus is at an intersection with SR 9, south of Alexandria. The highway passes through mostly agricultural and residential properties, as a two-lane roadway. SR 128 was originally introduced in the late 1930s or early 1940s routed along its modern routing. The entire roadway was paved in the late 1960s.

Route description
SR 128 begins at an intersection with SR 13/SR 37 and County Road 600S, which heads west, while SR 128 heads east. SR 128 passes through agricultural land as it heads towards Frankton. As the state road enters Frankton it makes a sharp curve with the road heading north, before a second sharp curve with the road heading east again on Plum Street. The street passes through residential properties and turns north onto Center Street, before turning east onto Sigler Street. The street passes through downtown Frankton, before passing through a residential part of town. SR 128 turns south onto 11th street for a few blocks before turning east onto Clyde Street. The street passes Frankton Elementary School, before leaving Frankton. East of Frankton SR 128 passes through farmland, with some houses. The SR 128 designation ends at an intersection with SR 9 south of Alexandria. The roadway continues east as County Road 800N, which becomes McGalliard Road, in Delaware County, before becoming SR 332 at an interchange with Interstate 69.

No segment of State Road 128 in Indiana is included in the National Highway System (NHS).  The NHS is a network of highways that are identified as being most important for the economy, mobility and defense of the nation.  The highway is maintained by the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) like all other state roads in the state. The department tracks the traffic volumes along all state roads as a part of its maintenance responsibilities using a metric called average annual daily traffic (AADT). This measurement is a calculation of the traffic level along a segment of roadway for any average day of the year. In 2010, INDOT figured that lowest traffic levels were 1,200 vehicles and 110 commercial vehicles used the highway daily west of Frankton. The peak traffic volumes were 3,490 vehicles and 150 commercial vehicles AADT along the section east of Frankton.

History 
SR 128 was assumed into the state road system between 1939 and 1941. At the time, the highway started at the SR 13/SR 37 and ran east through Frankton to SR 9 much as it does today. The entire was paved between 1966 and 1967. Since its paving, the route has not undergone any major changes.

Indiana State Road 129

State Road 129 (SR 129) is a part of the Indiana State Road that runs between Vevay and Batesville in the US state of Indiana.  The  of SR 129 that lie within Indiana serve as a minor highway. Some of the highway is listed on the National Highway System. Various sections are urban two-lane highway and rural two-lane highway.  The highway passes through residential and commercial properties.

Route description
SR 129 begins at SR 56 on the banks of the Ohio River on the west side of Vevay. The route heads northwest as a two-lane rural highway, passing through farmland and woodland. The route has an intersection with SR 250, in rural Switzerland County. The highway crosses into Ripley County and begins a concurrency with SR 62. The concurrency heads north-northeast passing through Cross Plains. North of Cross Plains, SR 62 turns east and SR 129 keeps heading north-northwest. The road enters Versailles from the southeast and begins a concurrency with U.S. Route 421 (US 421). The two routes head north towards downtown Versailles and US 50. At US 50, the concurrency with US 421 ends when it heads east concurrent with US 50. SR 129 heads east concurrent with US 50 and leaves town, entering Versailles State Park.  After passing through Versailles State Park, the concurrency endS when SR 129 turns north towards Batesville. The highway enters Batesville and ends at an intersection with SR 46.

The only segment of State Road 129 in Indiana that is included in the National Highway System (NHS), is that concurrent with US 50.  The NHS is a network of highways that are identified as being most important for the economy, mobility and defense of the nation.  The highway is maintained by the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) like all other state roads in the state. The department tracks the traffic volumes along all state roads as a part of its maintenance responsibilities using a metric called average annual daily traffic (AADT). This measurement is a calculation of the traffic level along a segment of roadway for any average day of the year. In 2010, INDOT figured that lowest traffic levels were 1,290 vehicles and 270 commercial vehicles used the highway daily near the intersection with SR 250. The peak traffic volumes were 10,190 vehicles and 610 commercial vehicles AADT along the section of SR 129 at is concurrent with US 421.

History
In 1930 the Indiana State Highway Commission authorized a state road from SR 56 near Vevay to Versailles. This state road was designated as SR 129 in 1931. Paving of the original section was completed between 1965 and 1967. Around 1977 the SR 129 designation was extended north from Versailles to SR 48. The route was extended north again from SR 48 to SR 46 in Batesville between 1990 and 1991.

Duvenhage lyssavirus

Duvenhage lyssavirus (DUVV) is a member of the genus Lyssavirus, which also contains the rabies virus. The virus was discovered in 1970, when a South African farmer (after whom the virus is named) died of a rabies-like encephalitic illness, after being bitten by a bat. In 2006, Duvenhage virus killed a second person, when a man was scratched by a bat in North West Province, South Africa, 80 km from the 1970 infection. He developed a rabies-like illness 27 days after the bat encounter, and died 14 days after the onset of illness. A 34-year-old woman who died in Amsterdam on December 8, 2007, was the third recorded fatality. She had been scratched on the nose by a small bat while travelling through Kenya in October 2007, and was admitted to hospital four weeks later with rabies-like symptoms.

Microbats are believed to be the natural reservoir of Duvenhage virus. It has been isolated twice from insectivorous bats, in 1981 from Miniopterus schreibersi, and in 1986 from Nycteris thebaica, and the virus is closely related to another bat-associated lyssavirus endemic to Africa, Lagos bat lyssavirus.

Indiana State Road 130

State Road 130 in the U.S. state of Indiana is a short,  road that connects Lake Station with Valparaiso to the southeast.

Route description
State Road 130 runs 7.9 miles (17.9 km) from State Road 149 near Valparaiso to U.S. Route 6 and State Road 51 in Hobart. This highway mainly follows a major rail line for its entire length. It formerly followed Lincoln Way (sometimes spelled "Lincolnway") for its entire length in Valparaiso, except south of LaPorte Avenue, where it was called Sturdy Road.

State Road 130 passes through the following cities, and intersects with highways at those locations:

 Hobart — U.S. Route 6/State Road 51
 Valparaiso — State Road 149

State Road 130 is concurrent with SR 51 for one mile (1.6 km) south of its terminus on U.S. Route 6. State Road 51 then goes west into downtown Hobart, and State Road 130 goes southeast towards Porter County and Valparaiso.

State Road 130 can be considered a local spur of US 30. This differs from other highways, such as State Road 249, which exist outside of the grid system and are numbered according to the nearest grid number available.

History 
State Road 130 south of LaPorte Avenue was at one point concurrent with State Road 2. When the Valparaiso Bypass (current State Road 49) was completed, State Road 49 was routed onto the bypass, and State Road 2 was routed with State Road 49 south to U.S. Route 30.

In 2015, State Road 130 was truncated at its intersection with State Road 149, and its remaining length was transferred to Porter County and Valparaiso.

Islam in Bolivia

Bolivia is a predominantly Christian country, with adherents of Islam representing a very small minority. Due to secular nature of the Bolivia's constitution, Muslims are free to proselytize and build places of worship in the country. Statistics for Islam in Bolivia estimate a Muslim population of around two thousand, representing 0.017% out of the total population of 11,220,000 inhabitants.

In 2004 the first official Sunni mosque, the Yebel An Nur Mosque, was founded in 2004 in La Paz. The Yebel An Nur Mosque remains self-funded with close ties to the Sunni Bolivian Islamic Center of Santa Cruz while the As-Salam Mosque receives both Sunni and Shia followers, connections, and funding.

They Also Ran

They Also Ran: The Story of the Men Who Were Defeated for the Presidency (1943) is a non-fiction book about United States presidential candidates by American writer Irving Stone, known for his popular biographical novels of artists and intellectuals. An updated edition was published in 1966, with brief analyses of the 1944 through 1964 elections.

Summary
Stone evaluates several unsuccessful candidates for President of the United States, from the elections of 1824 through 1940. He explores their places in history (and those of their victorious opponents), and tries to assess whether or not the American people made the "right" choice in choosing another candidate for that office.

Structure
Stone groups the also-rans by profession, rather than listing them in chronological order. For example, the first section assesses newspapermen Horace Greeley and James M. Cox. Coincidentally Stone happens to rate them favorably compared to the candidates who were elected: Grant and Harding.

Reception
The Chicago Tribune described They Also Ran as "a fascinating and challenging book." The New York Times praised it as "a brilliant idea ... brilliantly executed".

Boyd Lee Spahr, in The Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography, criticized the "lack of historical continuity" in the organization of the book, complaining that the grouping of candidates by profession did little to increase understanding. He particularly criticized the text for numerous errors related to several different candidates, and said that Stone did not reflect the consensus of historians on many candidates. He said:

Mr. Stone wields a trenchant pen but his penchant for striking sentences, and perhaps his prejudices, lead him into exaggerations and inaccuracies, with the result that some of the sketches seem like campaign propaganda, post-mortem pro or con, rather than impartial biography. In addition, factual errors are fairly numerous.

Spahr concluded that while Stone was entitled to his opinions, the inaccuracies decreased the book's value as a reference.

1966 edition
The book was published in an updated edition in 1966, incorporating material on elections from 1944 to 1964. It included the sections noted below:

Influence
The book inspired the Also-Ran Gallery, founded in Norton, Kansas in 1965, a collection of black-and-white portraits of unsuccessful presidential candidates that is displayed within the First State Bank building.

Panama (song)

"Panama" is a song by the American rock band Van Halen. It was the third US single released from the album 1984.

Background
Despite its name, the song is not about the country. Instead, the song was reportedly written about a car. In an interview with Howard Stern, lead singer David Lee Roth explained the meaning behind the song. Although the song features some suggestive lyrics, it is about a car that Roth saw race in Las Vegas; its name was "Panama Express", hence the title of the song.

Panama was also the name of Roth's Opel Kadett.

Roth wrote the song after being accused by a reporter of "singing about only women, partying, and fast cars". He realized he had never written a song about fast cars and decided to write one.

In an interview with guitarist Eddie Van Halen, he said the song was musically inspired by AC/DC's straightforward three chord rock style.

During the bridge of the song where Roth says "I can barely see the road from the heat comin' off," Eddie Van Halen can be heard revving his 1972 Lamborghini Miura S in the background. The car was backed up to the studio and microphones were attached to the exhaust pipe to record the sound for the song.

The song is in the key of E♭ Major. However, the published score is in the key of E Major, having a moderate rock common time tempo of 144 beats per minute.

Musical style
Musically, "Panama" has been described as hard rock, glam metal, and heavy metal.

Music video
The music video for the song, directed by Pete Angelus, primarily features on-stage performances by the band. The bulk of the video was shot at The Spectrum in Philadelphia over two nights both during the show and at soundcheck. Portions of it were filmed at the tour dates prior during performances at the Providence Civic Center in Providence, Rhode Island.

The car shown in the music video is a heavily customized 1951 Mercury Eight convertible - notably not "Panama Express", the Opel or the Miura.

Reception
Chuck Klosterman of Vulture ranked it the fourth best Van Halen song, calling it the "strongest pure riff in the catalogue."

In popular culture 
The song was prominently featured in "Coma Guy," a 2020 episode of the animated TV series Family Guy, in which Peter mistakes the album 1984 for a book-on-CD of George Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four and becomes addicted to the song. It is also featured in the film Superbad.

The song is also featured as in-game music for the video game Gran Turismo 4, with the song prominently featured in the game intro of the North American version.

Indiana State Road 135

State Road 135 (SR 135) in the U.S. State of Indiana is a road that connects Indianapolis with the Ohio River; for the most part it is a two-lane road except for near Greenwood and Indianapolis.

Route description
The southern terminus is the Matthew E. Welsh Bridge on the east side of Mauckport. The bridge connects to Kentucky Route 79 in Brandenburg, Kentucky on the south side of the river.

The road runs north along rolling terrain in Harrison and Washington counties.  It continues north through hilly country, passing Starve Hollow Lake State Recreation Area in Jackson County and the Brown County State Park.  It then passes into the flatter terrain of Johnson and Marion counties.  The northern terminus is at U.S. Route 31 on the south side of Indianapolis, about  south of its interchange with Interstate 465.

History
State Road 135 was known as State Road 35 until U.S. Route 35 was commissioned in Indiana in February 1935.

State Road 135 previously terminated a few miles farther north in the city, but was shifted down to its current northernmost location of Thompson Road when U.S. Highways and Indiana State Roads were all truncated at or rerouted around major cities onto available bypasses in the early 1990s. It followed Meridian St., Troy Ave., and ended at US 31 and SR 37 at the time (now Madison Ave.).

Indiana State Road 140

State Road 140 (SR 140) is a State Road in the eastern section of the state of Indiana. Running for about  in a general north–south direction, connecting rural portions of Rush and Henry counties. SR 140 was originally introduced in 1932 to connect Indiana Soldiers and Sailors Orphans Home to US 40 in Knightstown. The road was paved by the late 1930s.

Route description

SR 140 starts in rural Rush County, just south of Hoosier Youth Challenge Academy, as a continuation of Rushville Road (CR 340 W). The state road heads generally towards the northwest, passing through Hoosier Youth Challenge Academy, before crossing the Big Blue River. After the river the road becomes more north–south and enters Henry County and the town of Knightstown. In Knightstown SR 140 follows Jefferson Street, passing through residential properties. SR 140 ends in downtown Knightstown at an intersection between Jefferson Street and Main Street (US 40). Jefferson Street continues north as a city street towards the north side of Knightstown. The highest traffic count is in downtown Knightstown, where 2,536 vehicles travel the highway on average each day. The lowest traffic count is at the southern end of SR 140, where 641 vehicles travel the highway on average each day.

History
SR 140 was first designated by September 1932. The original routing started at the Indiana Soldiers and Sailors Orphans Home, now Hoosier Youth Challenge Academy, and ran north to US 40 much as it does today. Between 1935 and 1937, SR 140 was reconstructed to be a high level of road, with a hard driving surface. Since its paving, the route has not undergone any major changes.

Indiana State Road 144

State Road 144 (SR 144) in the U.S. state of Indiana is a highway that exists in two short disconnected segments south of Indianapolis.

Route description
The western segment of SR 144 begins at an intersection with SR 42 and SR 67 in Mooresville. Traveling southeast in the far northeast of rural Morgan County, SR 144 crosses over the White River before entering Johnson County and the town of Bargersville before terminating at a dogbone interchange with I-69.

The eastern segment begins at an intersection with SR 135 in central Bargersville. Continuing southeast through rural Johnson County, SR 144 terminates at a roundabout with SR 44 in Franklin.

The gap between the two segments is connected by a highway called County Road 144 (CR 144). It was previously signed with CR 144 signs at its west and east ends at I-69 and SR 135, respectively. It is also known as Old Plank Road in Bargersville. It is one of the very few county roads in Indiana with a numerical designation identical to that of an adjoining state road, similar to how it is done in Florida.

History 
SR 144 was added to the state road system in 1930, running along its current routing between SR 35 (now SR 135) in Old Bargersville and US 31 in Franklin. SR 144 and SR 35 were commissioned to help relieve traffic on US 31 between Franklin and Indianapolis. This segment of SR 144 was paved in 1931. The segment between Mooresville and Waverly was added to the state road system between 1939 and 1941 with an intermediate road surface. SR 37 (now I-69) was rerouted around Waverly, and SR 144 was extended east to meet at the time the new SR 37 northeast of Waverly between 1963 and 1965. The western segment was paved between 1965 and 1966. SR 144 was rerouted to bypass Waverly between 1969 and 1970. In 2014, the eastern terminus of SR 144 was moved to the intersection with SR 44, with the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) transferring the segment of SR 44 and SR 144 on Jefferson Street to the city of Franklin.

Indiana State Road 148

State Road 148 (SR 148) is a part of the Indiana State Road that runs between rural Dearborn County and Aurora in US state of Indiana.  The  of SR 148 that lie within Indiana serve as a minor highway. None of the highway is listed on the National Highway System. The whole road is a rural two-lane highway, passes through mostly woodlands. SR 148 was first designated as a state road in 1932. The highway replaced the original State Road 48 designation of the highway which dated back to 1926.

Route description
SR 148 begins at an intersection with SR 48, in rural Dearborn County. The highway heads southwest as a two-lane highway passing mostly through woodland, with some farmland. The route curves southeast and heads towards Aurora. The road enters Aurora, passing through mostly residential properties. SR 148 ends at a traffic signal with U.S. Route 50 (US 50), near the Ohio River.

No segment of State Road 148 in Indiana is included in the National Highway System (NHS).  The NHS is a network of highways that are identified as being most important for the economy, mobility and defense of the nation.  The highway is maintained by the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) like all other state roads in the state. The department tracks the traffic volumes along all state roads as a part of its maintenance responsibilities using a metric called average annual daily traffic (AADT). This measurement is a calculation of the traffic level along a segment of roadway for any average day of the year. In 2010, INDOT figured that lowest traffic levels were 1,890 vehicles and 70 commercial vehicles used the highway daily near the intersection with US 50. The peak traffic volumes were 4,330 vehicles and 120 commercial vehicles AADT along the section of SR 148 at its western terminus near SR 48.

History
The route at SR 148 takes today became a state road in 1927 as SR 48 and the current SR 48 was signed as SR 46. In 1932 the number to the route was changed to SR 148 and SR 48 was moved onto its current route.

State Road 149 (SR 149) is a part of the Indiana State Road that runs between Valparaiso and Burns Harbor in the US state of Indiana.  The  of SR 149 that lie within Indiana serve as a minor highway. None of the highway is listed on the National Highway System. Various sections of the road are rural two-lane and urban four-lane undivided highways, passing through farmland and residential properties.

Route description
SR 149 begins at an intersection with SR 130, just north of the Chicago Fort Wayne and Eastern Railroad and Norfolk Southern Railroad tracks. The road heads north as a two-lane highway, passing through rural farmland with some houses. The highway has traffic lights at U.S. Route 6 (US 6). The route crosses under the Indiana Toll Road and has an at-grade crossing with the CSX Transportation railroad tracks. The road crosses another set of CSX Railroad tracks and has a traffic light at US 20. North of US 20, the highway becomes a four-lane undivided highway, with a wide median. The route crosses over Interstate 94 (I–94). The route curves northwest, becoming a four-lane undivided highway and having an intersection with US 12.

Anti-halation backing

An anti-halation backing is a layer found in many photographic films—and almost all film intended for motion picture cameras—usually a coating on the back of the film base, though it is sometimes incorporated between the light-sensitive emulsion and the base. Its purpose is to absorb light that passes through the emulsion, thus preventing any light from being reflected back through the emulsion from the rear surface of the base, or from anything behind the film, such as the pressure plate of the camera. This prevents a halo-like effect (halation) from forming around bright points or edges in the image. 

Still cameras, which handle less film and thus contend with less wear, typically hold their film in the gate with components painted or treated to be black, so reflections are less of an issue and few still films made use of anti-halation backings. The notable exception was Kodak's Kodachrome, which incorporated such a backing to aid with a very sensitive innermost layer.

The anti-halation layer is rendered transparent or washed out during processing of the film, for example, the K-14 process for Kodachrome still film and the Eastman Color Negative (ECN2) process for color motion picture film both have steps which remove this layer.

The lack of an anti-halation layer in Kodak High-Speed Infrared (HIE) film caused the ethereal "glowing" effect often associated with infrared photography, rather than an artifact of IR itself.

Motion pictures 
This effect is particularly pronounced in motion picture cameras. These cameras are subject to the constant motion of film being dragged through the film gate, so most motion picture cameras have film movements made or plated with wear-resistant alloys such as hard chrome. Given such a relatively reflective pressure plate behind the film, many motion picture films use an anti-halation (and anti-static) backing. Different kinds of effects can be achieved by removing the anti-halation backing. Halation is one of the properties unique to analog film stock and isn't found in digital footage unless modified in post-production. Despite anti-halation backing, most film stock still renders a slight red halo around the brightest elements in a picture, where the incoming light is so strong that it cannot fully be absorbed by the anti-halation backing, and instead is scattered back into the red layer of the stock, creating additional, halo-like exposure in that particular layer, before it gets fully absorbed.

Halation can be digitally imitated to some degree, as shown below:

Indiana State Road 152

State Road 152 in the U.S. State of Indiana is a short connector highway in northwest Indiana.

Route description
SR 152 serves as a connector route through Hammond between US 41 and US 20, traveling entirely along Indianapolis Boulevard. The route begins at a combination interchange with I-80/I-94/US 6/US 41 (Borman Expressway). After US 41 turns west onto the expressway from Indianapolis Boulevard, the roadway continues north in a straight direction, now carrying SR 152. North of the interchange, SR 152 serves the Purdue University Northwest (Hammond campus). North of 165th Street, the route begins to transition into an industrial area. The route first encounters a railroad crossing and then crosses above a railyard as a four-lane overpass. Shortly after the road descends to street level, SR 152 ends at an intersection with US 20 (Michigan Street). The roadway still continues north as part of US 20.

History

SR 152 was once part of US 152 until that highway's decommissioning in 1938. The rest of US 152 is now US 52, US 231, and US 41.

Unchained (song)

"Unchained" is a song from Van Halen's fourth album, Fair Warning. The song was released as a single in various countries, including Germany, Spain, and Japan.

Writing and composition
Vocalist David Lee Roth's working title for the song was "Hit the Ground Running". The song features prominent use of the MXR M-117 flanger, which became a popular sound and spurred sales of the pedal. A preset for the flanger was also included on the EVH Flanger MXR pedal. It uses a Drop D tuning with suspended fourth chords interspersed. The song is notable for being producer Ted Templeman's only vocal contribution to the band, when he says "Come on, Dave, gimme a break!" during the interlude of the song.

Reception
Chuck Klosterman of Vulture.com named it the second-best Van Halen song, writing that it "merely feels like insatiable straight-ahead rock, but the lick is freaky, obliquely hovering above the foundation while the drums oscillate between two unrelated performance philosophies."

Pelecinus

The genus Pelecinus is the only living member of the family Pelecinidae (there are also many fossil genera), and contains only three species, restricted to the New World. One species, Pelecinus polyturator, occurs from North through South America, and the others occur in Mexico (Pelecinus thoracicus) and South America (Pelecinus dichrous). The females are glossy wasps, very long (up to 7 cm) and the abdomen is extremely attenuated, used to lay eggs directly on scarab larvae buried in the soil.

Islam in Colombia

Islam in Colombia is a minority religion, with most Colombians adhering to Christianity (Catholicism). According to a 2018 study conducted by Pew Research Center, the size of the Colombian Muslim population ranges from about 85,000–100,000 people out of a total population of 50.4 million. However, according to official estimates the Colombian Muslim community numbered just 10,000 people or 0.02% of the total Colombian population. Most Colombian Muslims are immigrants from the Arab World along with a small number of local converts.

There are a number of Islamic communities in Colombia, the most important of which, according to their size, are in Bogotá, Maicao and Buenaventura. There are also Islamic centers in San Andrés, Nariño Department, Santa Marta and Cartagena. There are also primary and secondary Islamic schools in Bogotá and Maicao. Maicao plays host to the continent's third largest mosque, the Mosque of Omar Ibn Al-Khattab. Most Muslims in Colombia are descendants of Arab immigrants from Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine during the late 19th to early 20th century. The Afro-Colombian Muslims in Buenaventura, Colombia's main Pacific port city, have over the years embraced the teachings of the Nation of Islam, mainstream Sunni Islam, and the Shia Islam denomination.

The Ahmadiyya Community also has a presence in the country.

Steven Campbell (footballer)

Steven Campbell (born 20 August 1986) is a Scottish central defender.

Career
The defender never made a first team appearance for Rangers but he was listed on the bench a number of times in the 2005–06 season. With Campbell's chances of breaking into the first team small, the then manager Paul Le Guen allowed him to gain experience in the First Division by moving to Partick Thistle for the first half of the 2006–07 season. He went on to make 15 senior league appearances for Partick Thistle and scored his first senior goal against Livingston.

On 27 January 2008, Campbell signed for Airdrie United after spending over six months without a club after leaving Rangers in the summer of 2007. On 22 May that year he signed for Football West State League side Perth SC in Australia. Campbell returned to Scotland to join Fife side East Fife 3 December 2009, and he was appointed club captain five-years later, on 26 July 2014.
